Hey, is there any softwares that can function the recent app of the original recent app switcher in HTC One S, I mean, just a small software can replace the recent app button. Thanks in advance!:)
[HTC One S] tgtoys:
Found this floating around, you can give it a shot. However, you do need to be rooted (which you should expect to be able to perform these actions, no way you'll be able to do it without root).

Alternatively, you can flash any of the custom roms here and they will do it for you.

Edit: Well I went ahead and installed it to see if it will work, and looks like it's only able to remap hardware buttons, not the capacitive buttons. Still a nifty app, but not what you're looking for.
[HTC One S] jason799:
My cellphone is S3 processor and I tried the method to change the recent app button to menu through changing the code. But after that, there is still no method or software to make the long press home button into recent app for S3 device, so I guess maybe there could be a software can trigger the function. Really sucks for S3 device!!

hey im using i9100 galaxy x2 internatioal. with the official AOKP Build Number 4.

in the changelog it says it has USB mass storage emulation.

well when i have my phone connected to a cable to my windows pc it doesnt show anywhere on the phone that i can mount my phone or anything like that :( is it because the with the kernel this feature is not working? it works on rootbox 1.8 ICS... with siyah kernel 4.1.4. but when im using aokp jellybean build 4 it doesnt work.. :( whyy please help me thnx

it is really annoying that i must turn of the phone take out the sd card and put it in an adapter to be able to mount it 100% cus otherwise it always tells me that it couldnt copy over the file :/

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] yourtvlies:
Hey all,

A friend and I both got SGS3's within the last couple of weeks - mine's VZW, theirs is Sprint, both 100% unrooted, bone-dry-stock (for now). I noticed some really strange behavior, and I'm wondering if anyone else has any experience or thoughts on what might be going on.

Anyway, when the MHL cable is plugged into my phone, everything works as expected, however, plug it into my friend's Sprint device, and the video output works, but within moments the data connection drops and then the signal is lost altogether.

I'm not sure what the deal is, at all, and probably wouldn't have believed it if I didn't see it, and test it several times myself. My best guess is that because the 3G signal wasn't super strong in the first place, induction in the MHL cable caused enough interference to drop the signal all together (though going from 3 or 4 bars to X, may suggest otherwise). I may try wrapping the cable through a ferrite core or something to see if that helps out... but that's kinda a shot in the dark.

I spent a few minutes searching around, but I'm wondering if anyone has any additional thoughts or experience with this kinda thing.

:confused:

[TouchPad General] ktklein72:
So I was wondering if anyone is using the Swiftkey 3 series keyboard on the HP TouchPad w/CM9/ICS. I ask because I recently started using the tablet more in landscape than in portrait mode and have noticed a very annoying "bug". While I know Swiftkey makes its own predictions, ICS also has a built-in spell checker - words that it thinks are incorrect appear underlined in red. When I am in portrait mode, if I were to do a press and choose a suggestion it would then be populated into the body of the text I am typing - basically making the substitution for me. When in landscape however it does all of that except the actual substitution - nothing happens when you return to where you were typing - the word is as it was originally and still underlined in red. Can anyone else confirm this? It happens to me in Tapatalk as well as other apps - but only in landscape mode.

Unrelated (but since I am talking about Swiftkey), and also annoying is that when in landscape a huge white typing area opens (it does not do this in porttrait) which usually results in not being able to see the majority of the screen while typing) which is especially bad on web pages. I believe it does this on ICS and GB - it's a landscape thing... Has anyone found a way to change that to make it look like when you type in portrait?
[TouchPad General] Infinite Jest:
I'm using Swiftkey 3 on both my phone and tablet and I have to say that the tablet version especially needs some help in the customization and functionality department.
[TouchPad General] ktklein72:
In GMail it did substitute the word but in Tapatalk it did not. I find it odd that this only happens in landscape orientation.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tudorvictor:
I moved from a samsung galaxy to the HTC raider and I was surprised to see that swipe to call/text is a samsung touchwiz feature, not an android feature. I was actually using that quite a lot.

Another feature I miss is that for contacts with multiple numbers, clicking on the contact would get me a pop-up with the two numbers so I could choose which number to call.

It just made things much faster.

Is there any custom ROM/UI out there that implements any of these features?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mg2195:
Not that I know of...as far as I know touchwiz based ROMs are the only ROMs that have that ability...probably one of touchwizs best features...and there's no porting the contact apk with out the touchwiz dependencies...so in other words, we would need a full touchwiz port to have that feature
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] homeslice976:
Some 3rd party launchers have swipe to launch gestures. I use Holo Launcher and you're able to set Swipe Up and Swipe Down Gestures to whatever you want. I think Apex may as well, probably some others too..
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] lilbtagna:
I use exDialer for my contacts and phone dialer, and I love it. It has the option to call/text on swipe and when you click on a name, it pulls up their whole contact card so you can select which number to call if you wish.

I can't post links yet, or I would. It's the first one to pop up in the Google Play if you search for that and there are a few themes for it too.

Edit the APN n give some weird proxy and address, this should make sure that a conncetion is not established.

Also setting a global proxy will make sure you do not get data.

Apart from that there is no way to disable data permanantly ( Android is meant to stay connected, thats how google wanted it :o )

please choose your answer and tell us your experience please.

Thanks.
[Android General] tt281gt:
Take a look at Cerberus and its features. I have yet to use it for a lost phone *knock on wood* features are great and so far all I've tried work just fine.
[Android General] Hreidmar:
Well if you have unlimited data (or at least few gigs) i would say best one would be Cerberus.

But if you don't have that luxury then Wheres my Droid will do you just fine.

I'm using WMD and i've "lost" it 2 times and WMD found my phone close enough. :)
[Android General] Rudjgaard:
I took the avast anti theft out of avast mobile security and just use that, unlike wmd it is phone reset proof, it locks the sim card and it's become complete since they made a web-commander interface in last update. The only downside to it is that it only uses data and doesn't use wi-fi for localization (which can be considered a minor inconvinience since data is available anywhere while wifi needs the phone to be lost where there's a wifi connection available)
[Android General] lecter100:
I'm with tt281gt and Hreidmar. For me it is Cerberus.

[Android General] uchihakurtz:
Lookout is pretty neat, accurate if your phone is on wifi or has GPS enabled (always enable GPS, ALWAYS) and it has a scream function. But the free version doesn't let you lock your phone or wipe data and stuff. As far as the others, I haven't tried yet other than this and Samsung Dive so no comment.
[Android General] kobesabi:
I like the remote video, picture, and audio recording capability...I've been using Avast but it does not have it. Lookout does not mention anything about snapping pic, audio, or video. Only thing is I've never heard of this company...not sure if it is trustable.
[Android General] marvi0:
Been using avast on my pc, for years, and it has been reliable. So when it came to android, that was my first and only a choice. However having read some reviews on the play store, regarding avast, am a bit concerned, because most reviewers who have actually had theft of there devices have raised some concerns that avast is not good at all when one is tracking lost devices. So now not sure what to go for.
[Android General] BoyCasuales:
I recently tried avast, maybe after that I want to try cerberus. :D
[Android General] marvi0:
Has anyone actually used any of these apps, to actually recover a lostor stolen phone, which i ccan only imagine is an extremely dreadful experience.?
[Android General] Bramahaha:

[Android General] 2rgman:
I use Avast in about 7 smartphones of the family, I tried to locate the devices for quite some times (never in real theft or lost) and in about 95% of the time the detection was accurate, even that GPS, the Wifi and data connection was off, (Avast turn them himself when sending the command in SMS)

The only missing feature is the ability to take a picture of the thief, they already implemented it but they do not include it for some legal reason :( )

Some story of tablet recovered by avast AFTER factory reset:

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] droidxxxxx:
OK, for some reason my a100 started acting funny today. I went to restart it and it wouldn't get past the Acer screen. So I figured I would do a hard reset. It still won't get past the screen. I am on ICS, was rooted and that's all..no different rom. I have been trying the paper clip method but doesn't get past the first Acer screen. A few weeks ago I had installed the ACER recovery from the market, but never really was able to figure it out. I seem to remember doing a backup with it but that's all.. I've tried the other reset method by holding the volume up and power, and toggling the screen lock switch. It just goes to the recovery but then has an error..recovery verified failed.. is there a way to hook this thing up to a PC like my old DROID x and sbf? See my pic of the recovery error..
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
Means you run a custom recovery but have a locked boot loader. Not much you can do if you're no longer on the a200 boot loader to unlock again, you either need cwm/twrp or android running to flash anything at all.

Other option is a stock recovery but emmc corruption leading to the failure. Either way, not much to do besides contacting Acer.

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] droidxxxxx:
It's the first Acer logo..kinda white/silver looking...how did this happen all of a sudden? It always ran fine..I never did unlock the boot loader, just rooted it to run certain apps..but why won't the stock pin hole method work?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] droidxxxxx:
Here's a pic with the logo..
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
Well you mentioned a recovery backup which means a custom recovery which means unlocked boot loader. Based on that, the a100 boot loader was restored somehow and locked you out of recovery.

Then you say you never unlocked it, which then means emmc corruption of either the recovery partition or even a portion of the boot loader.

Either way the outcome is the same, a trip to acer.

Custom ROM or not, emmc failure will happen to all a100s eventually, when depends on usage. Acer chose to use a defective problematic emmc on the a100 which is known to brick.

The only potential way around it is to use Linux society / godmachine kernels and his twrp recovery. It may or may not prevent it, but its better then nothing. As its timing is almost random (to us) its nearly impossible to tell if its effective or not.

Tapatalked from my Galaxy Nexus - Kuroikaze B4
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] justjackyl:
hey pio, does increased flashing of custom zips, whether rom, kernel, mod etc. increase the risk of failure? i would think flashing read only memory repeatedly would result in premature wear lending to faster ultimate failure.

your opinion?

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] droidxxxxx:
Well.. maybe it did not let me do a recovery... I seem to remember trying anyway. I definitely remember not getting very far with the recovery app itself..and I never unlocked the boot loader because I liked the stock from.. So even if I would not of rooted it it would still do this? I will look in the box for a number for Acer..I lost my receipt though..will they still help me? The Linux thing you mentioned..is that preventative or something I could do now?
