If you have Face to unlock enabled, and you go to settings, lockscreen, improve facial recognition, another person can add THEIR face and both your face and their face can unlock the screen. I guess it's not really improving the system with how you look in different environments but compares every picture it has of you until it finds a match.

If you make an outgoing call with Google Voice, the display and call log will show the Google relay phone number, not the contact phone number. That was handled correctly on my Galaxy S3 on Verizon.

The S-Pen is way too sensitive, the phone registers strokes and taps from over 1/2" above the screen.

(I've tried whacking it on a hard surface, and holding the button then touching the screen. Not brave enough to pry off the button and tweak the pot).

I was wondering what the hell those numbers were. I just noticed that today and had no idea where those numbers came from! Is that a system problem or a google voice app problem?

If you go to the the gallery from the camera app by clicking the little icon in the bottom left then if you try to go to the entire gallery by clicking the gallery icon on the top left corner the phone takes you back to the camera app instead of the gallery app as it should. It is actually very frustrating.

S-Voice not speaking your text msg + Vpoice dialing issue

2 items I have noticed:

1) If I voice text someone, S-Voice will confirm the person's name BUT not speak out the message before asking if i want to send it.

2) When trying to voice text someone who has more than 1 telephone number in their contact info like Work, Home, Mobile, S-Voice will often (I can't say as yet if it is everytime) state that the person has more than one number asking me which one I wish to use instead of defaulting to the mobile number.

What I can say is S-Vopice over BT has never worked so well for me vs. what I had with my GNote 1 using Voice Talk.

Are you sure it's not AT&T's Smart WiFi app doing this? Make sure it's turned off.

I don't have this problem on my stock unrooted phone, but I remember on my Note 1 being surprised that the WiFi was always on, even when I turned it off, and it turned out this app was the culprit.

This is what I do. "Send message to John Smith's mobile. Meet you at the bar." Be sure to say "mobile" (you can either pronounce it mo-bill or mo-byle ;) Then it'll automatically select their cell number. She'll respond back and when you're ready, say "yes" or say "send".

You can also say "Send message to John Smith's home..." It'll select John's Home # but of course, the message won't be received, I don't think, unless their home phone has a feature that receives text messages...

In gmail app, while looking at the content of an email, swiping leftwards to go to the next email often results in just the title of the next email loading. Sometimes can take quite a while. If I go back to the inbox and click on the email entry I want to look at directly it loads fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] zakerny:
Ditto for me. Was irritating at first, but I ended up going to a the first bluetooth headset that's actually worked for me the way I've expected.

Yup, same to me.

Add in there that if you have a contact's name that is in the format of Salutation LastName such as "Dr. Who" or "Mr. T" or "Ms. Parker" with no first name, s-voice doesn't properly pronounce it when it tells me "Calling Dr. Who". Specifically, Dr. is "Drive"... now that's just silly.

Another s-voice issue, response gets slower the more you use it. When I first started, I'd get answers back quickly. Now it takes 10s. I should go clear its cash I suppose.

Only reason I'm sticking with it is because it actually works unlike the offering from google (which seems to dislike my accent; works fine when others have used it.. I had the same problem playing with friends' siri implementations).

Hi All,

If I unlock and root my onex and then do a nandroid back up of my current stock ICS, and then upgrade my hboot and install a JB rom, will I be able to re-flash my stock rom if something goes wrong or if I just want to go back to my nandroid back up.

Can I and will it be easy?

qball
[HTC One X] matt95:
yes you can, simply by restoring the backup... also share the nandroid backup here please :D
[HTC One X] qball11:
Ah thank you, i was not sure i could just go back to it having updated the hboot and I will share.

qball
[HTC One X] matt95:
thank you ;)
[HTC One X] qball11:
So I have unlocked and rooted my phone, back up created and ready to flash. If I do upgrade my hboot to run jb sense 4+ roms, then will my backup still work as this has been created on hboot 1.12, will this not require a downgrade which is not possible. As s-on device HTC__001

qball
[HTC One X] matt95:
yes, you're right :) if you want to go back just flash back the nandroid backup
[HTC One X] qball11:
thanks, so my ics nandroid backup will still work even though on newer hboot, thank you.
[HTC One X] qball11:
Thanks for that mate. One last question if I upload my nandroid backup, will all my personal files, photos music contacts and everything else be in that back up, or am I right in thinking that this is all safe on my sdcard partition. Mainly contacts as i have them on sim and on phone.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] marty331:
You are unable to just plug in your Nexus 4 in Linux but it is very easy to mount and unmount to move data to/from your sdcard. This is one option that will allow you to utilize Nautilis (or any other file browser) to copy files to/from your Nexus 4. This is written for Ubuntu, but should work the same for other Linux systems. Also, this should work for Nexus 7 and 10.

1. Enable Developer options and enable USB debugging.

2. Install necessary modules to your computer:

sudo apt-get install mtp-tools mtpfs

3. Configure 51-android.rules:

sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

paste the following at the end of the file (if the file does not exist then just paste):

#LG - Nexus 4

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="1004", MODE="0666"

#Samsung - Nexus 7 & 10

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="18d1", MODE="0666"

Save and exit.

4. Make the file executable:

sudo chmod +x /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

5. Restart udev

sudo service udev restart

6. Create mount point and permissions (will need to do this for other Nexus' if using for the 7 or 10)

sudo mkdir /media/nexus4

chmod 755 /media/nexus4

7. Plug in the Nexus 4 and make sure MTP is enabled.

8. Mount with the following command:

sudo mtpfs -o allow_other /media/nexus4

9. When you have completed your work you must unmount:

sudo umount /media/nexus4

Now each time you need to copy from/to your Nexus 4 to your Linux computer you only need to plug in and run 8, then 9 when you have completed your work.

Just install and run gMTP plug your phone in and click connect. It is in the Ubuntu software center or for other versions of linux at http://gmtp.sourceforge.net/

It seems that mtpfs 1.1 is broken. I downgraded to 1.0 and it worked. However, there is usually lag for some reason whenever the screen is off.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] mussieonlinux:
I had MTP/PTP crash several sdcards of mine which required me to format them (no write permissions had no way to get that back.)

Ever since that I just use ADB (Android Debugging Bridge) there are several GUI front-ends available in the default deb/rpm repositories, or if you are comfortable with the terminal (and with ADB it's really really simple to master) you can just get the binary and put it in your bin folder and transfer it via that. Highly reliable, speed is about 2-3mb/s -- but it works. :)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] mpmilestogo:
I gave up on this on Debian Testing. My Galaxy Nexus would not mount no matter what udev rules I used and mtpfs is not a solution. Instead, I just use a ftp server on the phone and ftp things to it or push things using adb. I've also tried airdroid a few times. I would not mind trying the sshfs alternative either. Gonna check that one out.

QtADB is just a GUI for ADB and it works very well. Search QtADB on Google and you will find the download page with instructions.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] bobhwasatch:
The MTP libs in testing are a little outdated. I got KDE to more or less work with my N4 by upgrading to the libmtp from experimental. It still isn't 100%, I have had it hang when transferring hundreds of audio files for example. But it mostly works.

OTOH, I don't use it much. The PC has an SSH server so I just put andftp on the N4. That is reliable and I don't have to be where the PC is.

I use DavDrive Lite, and in Nautilus I choose File - Connect to Server...

In the following dialog, select "Webdav - HTTP" and enter the server address and port (they are displayed in th eDavDrive app; server is the IP address, and port is 8888).

The default login is user/davdrive, but you can change that.

From that point on, you can just start DavDrive and open the bookmark in Nautilus to access your phone. More convenient, but slower, than USB.

Disable Debug USB

Enable the "Stay Awake" option

Download gMTP from ubuntu Software Center

Run it and wait ~20 seconds

Here is YALMA (Yet another linux mount alternative).

I suspect most of you have a method of transferring files over their home network (wifi) like an ftp server or whatnot, this will utilize whatever you have in place. If you don't you can use an ftp server.

#0) Plug your phone into your computer

1) Turn on USB tethering

2) Use whatever you use over wifi with the IP 192.168.42.129*

#3)???

#4)Profit!!!

Of course I don't have to mention that if your file manager of choice supports it you can connect with it and then add a bookmark. Oh, and I am guessing tasker could be used to start up whatever you are using for transferring phone side (ex. ftp server) after turning on usb tethering.

*Address of the phone, comp's should vary. Note a statically set IP on ethernet (depending on what you use to manage your network) may disrupt this.

#dhclient usb0

should resolve this (if you have other usb networking devices use usbX where X is whatever denotes the phone)'

EDIT:More info:

Here is an ftp server that doesn't require configuration (the default is to allow anonymous connections).

This may not work for your file manager, but some can connect to an ftp server via file->connect to server (if you didn't change any configs in the ftp server choose "public ftp" or whatever doesn't ask for a password), enter 192.168.42.129 as the server and leave everything the same.Afterwards you should see a new connection on the left, right click it and then bookmark it.

The next time you connect you'll only have to start usb tethering then open the server app, and in your file manager just click on the bookmark and voila, there is your sdcard.

If your filemanager is not among the family the behaves as above then google is your friend ;)
