[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dt33:
It's still possible to recover photos/videos from internal memory after a factory reset.

Just dont do anything with the phone and use airplane mode. Dont enable any wireless/data connectivity so the phone autorestore anything.

Download any recover software and install it on PC. Like Recuva, any free recover software or follow this guide (it use Stellar Photo Recovery software): http://android-photo-recovery.com/tutorials/recover-deleted-photos-videos-from-android-phones-internal-memory.html

Connect phone to PC and use the photo recover software to scan through phones internal memory. Use deep scan and hopes for luck to recover as many as possible. U wont recover all the photos/videos, since the factory reset have overwritten most of it and just hopes for the best.

Also, best is get a microsd card, can then choose between to take photos/videos and save it to internal or external card. I choose all photos/videos taken with camera to save it to mine 64GB microsd card. That way, even factory reset wont delete any photos/videos from external sdcard. Also can manual move all important files to external card, or use sync software to sync between PC/phone with wireless, whenever at home. Like Cheetah Sync app.
[HTC Sensation] MrMetalBomber:
ok so I owned an xperia active before I recently got sensation. When I had my xperia, I used a ROM called "PACman".

I dont know if many of you know about it, but its a mix between Paranoid, AOKP and Cyanogenmod.

The ROM gives us many possibilities, and easier choice. :)

I think many Sensation owners would be glad if it was ported over here.

Here is a link to the HTC Desire HD PACman ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1933804 :D

Look, I understand that you want this rom, but this is the development section, so your thread will be moved or deleted. This section is only for roms,kernels, and other things of the sort. Requests go to general and questions are in the qa section
[HTC Sensation] arabology:
as i understand, PACman ROM is ParanoidAndroid right? why won't we get it then? we have a great PA development going on :good:
[HTC Sensation] MidnightDevil:
We got cm, aokp and paranoid, its possible, its a matter of develop it :)
[HTC Sensation] N10AP:
Is there any particular reason that CM10, AOKP or PA are insufficient for you?

I cannot see that there would be a demand for this ROM, as we have the above ROMS all working very well already which cover all bases IMHO.

:puzzled:
[HTC Sensation] MrMetalBomber:
I understand, but it would be great to combine these, to get a much richer OS, with more choices. :victory:

For instance there are different things you can customize in AOKP than in paranoid.

If you put these together you get more choices, in addition to easier choice between ROMs.

I think bruce2728, frankinstine and DragunKorr should consider working a little together. :fingers-crossed:

I'm making progress. In chef central, i have a thread dedicated to the progress of Pac-Man for the Pyramid, and alex, its not as easy as sync and build. You have to create several configuration files and manually fill them in with the corrext info, and you have to edit both the cm, pa and aokp part to make it build for your device. Syncing and building is a pain on my computer, but it will work, eventuially, but there are errors everywhere. Exited sync due to fetch errors, invalid lunch combo, you name it...

"Settings - Personal - Backup & reset - Backup my data" says it will backup "any app data, Wi-Fi passwords, and other settings to Google servers" (4.2).

What isn't backed up? I'd guess media (music, videos, photos), but what else?

Is there any way to view the backup to see what is or isn't there?

How does one restore from backup?

There's a help screen for these settings, but it uses words like "most" and "some" which isn't very precise. http://support.google.com/android/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1663708

really nice work. I tryed the demo. It will hide the button-bar and the status-bar. But hey 3€ for this improvement is to high. Espacialy because in a few weeks there will be custom roms with this feature, too. Cyanogen and paranoid can do this too with longpress power button and expand Desktop i think.... and for free
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] ppirate:
It just removes the bar at the bottom of the screen. No point in making a screenshot :)

The demo is free. It fully works, all features as in the paid version, it just displays a small link to the market for a very short time. You can always buy the version at the market, great way to say thanks!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Minker17:
Does it just remove the bar but keep the buttons? I don't understand.

I would suggest Fullscreentoggle.apk

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1497558

for removing the navbar

and either GMD gesture controls or button savior (i use both) for navigation. Heres to taking back our entire screen :)
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Mi|enko:
What I wonder is this. With 3rd party launchers, it's cake to hide the status bar. I swipe down to show it, I swipe down again to hide it. When it's hidden, it still shows for apps that've set the preference to leave it visible, whether or not you've hidden it in the launcher. Why hasn't this been implemented for the NavBar? Is it that much harder to do?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] DowntownJeffBrown:
I used this method I'm on day 2 going on day 3 now using button savior and after the first 24 hours worth of use I've gotten used to using button savior and I love getting that extra real estate back. I was gonna post this method using the fullscreentoggle.apk while using button savior but I see u beat me to it.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Richieboy67:
I have been trying to use both of these apps but I cannot get them to function. Well button savoir works by showing the bottoms on the right when I want but I cannot get full screen to work..

I like the hide bar demo app but hate the ads. I just may have to buy. Just seems like there are so many apps that do so much for less than half the cost. I know it isn't a ton of cash but the app purchases add up.

The full screen app should make the bar disappear anyhow I believe..
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] meangreenie:
Anyone else getting 'glitching/flicking' wallpaper on the home screens using the demo version ? ..maybe a reboot will fix, will try later.

Using a live wallpaper though is fine.

I'm still using it though, awesome app. If it's confirmed the full version is without this problem then i'm buying.

When i hide the nav bar everything works fine. But when my screen times out and goes black and then i get a phone call my screen will not turn on, i cannot see who is calling. If i bring back the the nav bar my screen will work perfectly when i get a call. I havent see anyone else say anything about this issue. My N4 is rooted stock, with Apex Pro launcher and thats it. Anyone got any suggestions or help? Really want the full screen look with no nav bar. I do know that some Roms have that feature but im not too sure i want to flash a ROM just yet....

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] galaxys:
I also would prefer to just toggle the nav bar only, and leave the notify bar on.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] RickLyons74:
The problem I have with the full screen toggle. apk is that you lose the ability to swipe up from the status bar to activate Google Now... At least with the hide bottom bar you can turn it on and off; I.e. when I want to play a game, I go full screen and revert back after I'm done.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Tenji7:
You only need GMD GESTURE and it does it all. You can set it to automatically hide the Nav Bar at lockscreen if you are into fullscreen mode like me or unhide it every time the screen lock or time out. It can be set to both, this is good for those that have issue with the phone call ringer not showing up. I think by hiding the navbar, it also hide the ringer screen. I use a video ringtone app call Video Caller Id so I don't have any issue leaving the Nav Bar Hidden full time. GMD also have built in gesture and you can make custom gesture so you can navigate without the Nav Bar. It also have onscreen button if you don't like to do gesture. When you do hide the Nav Bar, it disable the multi app so you have to unhide the Nav Bar and press the multi/recent app to use it to close your recent app.

I have a custom gesture(slide down from top left to hide or unhide the bav bar) If I forgot to hide the Nav Bar when I put the screen to sleep, I have it set to automatically hide the Nav Bar when I turn on the screen, so I don't have to manually hide the Nav Bar. I use a swipe up from the bottom middle for a home button, GMD have a setting where it prevent you from pressing thing when you do your gesture like blocking the press of the space bar on the keyboard. It works great.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Kushblow:
Yeah I actually am using the GMD app that was released yesterday its not the 5$ one but the 2$ one called GMD hide bar. I made it go into full screen whenever I go into landscape mode. Now I can use chrome full screen!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] tippingvan:
Just tried the GMD Hide Bar app. And I still have the issue of the screen not turning on when i have a call. Any other ideas...?

Just tried GMD Gesture App. Set it hide status bar on umlock, and unhide status bar at screen time out. It works so now i can see who is calling, but it goes to a black screen for a couple seconds while it is hiding the status bar when i unlock the phone. So it works but not perfect....
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] RickLyons74:
GMD gesture made my Need For Speed game stutter....
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Tenji7:
That is better then what GMD use to be which won't even display your wallpaper, only a black wallpaper. If you don't like that, you can set it to a live wallpaper, and it won't show the black wallpaper. If you don't want to use a live wallpaper, there's a app that use regular wallpaper in the live wallpaper section. Something in the regular wallpaper cause that few sec of black screen. Other way is to use a ringtone app such as Full Caller ID or video ringtone app Video Caller Id. This way you don't have to auto hide the bar.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] tippingvan:
cool, thanks. do you know what the name of the app is where i can use a regular wallpaper in the live wallpaper section?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Tenji7:
It was mention in the old GMD description when it won't display wallpaper except the black screen, It was also discussed in a thread. I don't remember it.

Hi,

I've just installed fresh CM10 ICS Nightly on my LG Optimus 2x. The original __EXTERNAL_SD folder in my Home was suddenly empty, so I thought the mount point of External SD has changed. I found it in /storage/sdcard1. However, Applications don't recognize that, because they obviously expect __EXTERNAL_SD simlink/folder (or whatever it is) in my home. So I decided to delete it and create a new one to new location. Deletion was successful,but I'm not able to create a new symlink.

u0_a39@android: /sdcard # ln -s /storage/sdcard1 __EXTERNAL_SD
link failed Operation not permitted
u0_a39@android: /sdcard #

This is what I get.

Furthermore, since I deleted original file, every time I start Apollo (music player) I get error Unfortunately, Apollo has stopped. That's kinda weird, because it acts like it requires working __EXTERNAL_SD, but I'm not 100% sure.

Can you please explain me how to create such a symlink? Thanks!

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ega43:
Hi

As a complete newcomer to the Android opertaing system forgive me for asking what might be a couple of silly questions!

Firstly, there seems to be a few (three?) home screens. Can I make one of these always appear first when I switch on the Nexus7.

Secondly, when I purchased it a couple of weeks ago there seemed to be a whole host of widgets present, some of which seem to do nothing. Where do these widgets come from and what are they supposed to do. I have tried searching the web for information on this but have come up with nothing that really explains what widgets are.

Any help would be appreciated.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ynrozturk:
There should be a stock 5 home screens on Jelly Bean. The one in the middle (3rd) will be the default one. This can't be changed unless you use a custom launcher, like Nova Launcher. Then you can play around with them however you like.

As for the widgets question - which widgets are you talking about? As far as I know, there are no widgets which do "nothing"
