So sick of watching WiFi come and go.. I'm rooted and with " WiFi fix " in the Rom I flash still same crap to point I just want my good ole og EVO back what a good solid phone that was
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] leo72793:
So i took my case off and i had NO and i mean NO wifi. I pressed by the volume area, and it shot to full wifi...... then i took case cover off and tried a coin, it still worked.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cmdauria:
Good job on your first post!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] waterbound:
If you need to put a coin in your cell, you should probably take it back for warranty replacement as that doesn't seem to be the norm, honestly. Just my opinion, either way, glad that worked for the time being.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Hunt3r.j2:
An alternative solution would be to put a piece of cardboard, just anything to keep it propped up. I advise against making it too thick though, it still needs room to flex.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Anthonicia:
Using a coin could potentially be bad. I'd use a piece of paper or cardboard myself. Shorting out a circuit in your phone could cause more issues. I'm saying this because the coin is going to touch more than just antennas simply from its size compared to the phone internals.

Well dude you assume that everybody uses xda app to access xda and posting a link would take them directly to the app. Lots of people access xda from the computer so the link wouldn't be a must since they would still have to go to the market and type the name of the app+chill not everybody knows what kind of layout you, the grandfathers of xda like:)

No, I wasn't assuming anything. The link Chongo posted works from anything you access it from.. pc or phone, xda app or browser.

Wifi toggle

IMHO this may be the best app on the market.

but I wonder if anyone can help me lately I have lost functionality with my wifi toggle before it used to turn off with one click now it brings up the settings page. Which I do not want. I recently started experimenting with the Carat app, the greenify app, the battery doctor app, and the clean master app... is it possible that one of these apps is forcing the settings page?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
There isn't one. People need to stop making these ridiculous threads.

That's why I am just replying with stock for all these threads
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rosser725:
It's not stupid. I'm just asking to see what people have been have their experiences with.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AmericanCon:
It is stupid, considering there are 8+ threads EXACTLY like this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
Yes it is stupid... just cuz I get 5 days with so and so ROM and kernel, DOES NOT.. I REPEAT... DOES NOT mean you will also. Nobody can tell you what to expect if we all use are phones differently.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Prince_Basil:
I get 3 weeks out of one charge with my Nexus. But its on Airplane Mode all that time. CM12 - Best ROM so far. :)

Sorry... I see these threads all the time & I never reply. But I guess its just a pointless thread so I wanted to put a pointless answer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] erodriguez87:
They all drain pretty quickly

I think it's less about the right rom/kernel and more about using something like juicedefender or go power management from the play store. They help automatically switch stuff on and off that eats battery quickly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha

Has absolutely nothing to do with juice defender that stuff is a waste of ram.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AmericanCon:
Juice defender will do more damage than anything else.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
truth

why install something that will run in the background, to save battery? makes no sense at all.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
All that juicedefender crap is placebo.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lightsout:
In my experience definitely not true. At work I have a hit and miss signal. If I leave 3g active the battery drains really fast while the phone is sleeping. Like 10% in an hour sometimes. Turning on juice defender which for me is just disabling data while the screen is off. The battery will not move in the same amount of time. Maybe 1% will be gone.

I believe it is because the phone keeps trying to grab a signal in the weak areas.

Whatever it is there is for sure a huge difference. I have tested many times. Can hardly get through the day sometimes if I leave data on.

The thing I hate about it is a lot of the time the phone takes forever to reconnect so I have to wait every time I wake it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kaluoshi:
i use my phone a lot for web, music, calls, messaging, social app, and the best kernel i used and put in my rom (but for maguro) is Trinity Kernel 1344 cpu / 384 gpu Stable35. i advice this kernel :). for the rom a stock rooted, busyboxed, deodexed, zipaligned and with useful build.prop tweak for battery life. this has been my philosophy for my rom and i'm very satisfied :)

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 808Nexus:
I am trying to connect my Nexus 7 to my PC in Mass storage mode. I unlocked and rooted my tablet and have stickmount installed. In the pull down notifications menu it only allows me to connect as MTP or PTP. When I plug it in and click 'mount' in stickmount, a little window pops up and says 'Active Mounts: None' I can't seem to get it to mount. Any suggestions? I thought it was possible to connect this way with a rooted device.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiness:
Try to install mtp porting kit from Microsoft... it worked for me...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peterk-1:
My assumption has been that StickMount has no relevance to a USB connection to a PC and that StickMount is used to connect to devices that the GNex controls as a USB Host. I may be totally wrong but with an Android device connected to a PC I've only ever used the PC and never thought of controlling the connection from the Android end.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] IceDragon59:
On the original Incredible, the SMS and MMS Delivery Report option on the stock app requested a receipt when your recipient received the message, and silently updated your message with a checkmark when they received it. However, on the Inc 4G, it abruptly vibrates and plays my notification sound when the report is received. I've tried changing all the different settings about vibrating and notifications, while still leaving Delivery Reports on, and either it turns off all notifications and vibrating or it's still there.

So, the question is has anyone tested around specific settings to prevent getting the obnoxious notification rather than the silent update with enabled delivery reports with the stock messaging app? It's not something absolutely necessary to keep it on, just something I prefer.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] samstein66:
I had the same issue and just couldn't figure it out. I wound up just turning off the request delivery report option since it was so annoying getting the full notification. It does at least still let you know if there was a failure. But yeah... WTF??

It seems like they basically ruined that functionality.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] IceDragon59:
Yeah, pretty much. I turned it off soon after I made that post. I couldn't stand getting a text immediately following sending one every single time.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eric_Eric_Eric:
Okay, ridiculously stupid question, but I was never clear on this:

When I sideload apps, sometimes people say to copy the apk to /data/app (where all the non-system apps are, obviously). My question is, "What is the difference between copying (or using adb to push) the app to data/app (or /system/app for a system app) and simply clicking on the apk on my /sdcard and letting Android "install" it for me?

Is it okay just to let Android go through that installation window (much easier) instead of moving the apk myself (unless the app needs to go to /system/app)? I have always assumed all that installation process is doing is copying the apk to /data/app for me.

So, what's the difference? Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoberGalarga:
There aren't differences, same thing :D

As you say, pushing the apk you can send it to system/app, but in functional terms there aren't differences, the result will be the same ;)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eric_Eric_Eric:
So, does the packageinstaller.apk solely serve to copy and paste the file to /data/app?

Out of curiosity, what would happen if I uninstalled packageinstaller.apk and clicked on an apk? Would a toast pop up and say unrecognized file type or something to that effect? I would try it out on Nook Color, but I'm using it for something else at the moment.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoberGalarga:
I dunno really, I think that nothing will happen (no warnings, no freezes, nothing).

Hi guys if you read the portal (http://www.xda-developers.com/android/google-now-with-voice-search-finally-working-on-ics/) GoogleNow works great on ics and i have put together a nice flash able zip to get the job done Here. I take no credit for the actual application (Done by the guys Here) I just put a flashable zip together.

1. Delete GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk from /system/app

2. Flash Zip

3. Enjoy

I am on Energy rom and was able to install it previously w/ the instructions on the other thread with no problem. Flashed the zip OP posted and works beautifully.

It's integrated into your Google search now. Press the google search button and it should have replaced the normal google search...
[HTC Amaze 4G] rationalmind:
So I must install the old version first? I press search button but nothing changes.
[HTC Amaze 4G] icepixie:
So with the voice search working Google Now should be the same as on JB devices? Meaning it should have the colourful background?

I had installed it previously with these instructions (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1749045) and then updated with the zip made by the OP. Worked well and looked just like the Google Now on my Nexus 7 (colourful background).

But then I updated my Energy rom version and google now was wiped. :( Tried to follow the same steps again and I can't replicate the colourful background! it's just the white background. Any ideas? :(

An easier way, kinda, to install is to ... First, rename OR remove the GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk. Then flash .zip created by sportstar89. Confirmed working 100%

Edit: Confirmed working only 98% back button still not backing out of app.

When it says "previous version" it just means people who had already installed Google Now from before. You didn't have have it installed before... So disregard and just follow the directions provided. No biggie.
[HTC Amaze 4G] windcan:
Thanks for the help.

Seems to be working but I get some screens that seem to hang or I can't get out of.

For example whenever I click on my google search bar widget or search bar that is part of APEX at the top of all my homescreens, google now opens but has this blank card at the top always.

Also, I cannot "back" out of google now like how you can with all other apps to get to homescreen. Only way out of good now seems to be to hit "home"?

If I am doing anything wrong or do not have it set up correctly please let me know.

Thanks for the help and making google available to us
