[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul22000:
When I connect my Galaxy Nexus to my TV over HDMI, I can play YouTube videos but *only* the video shows on my TV.

I paired my phone with a Bluetooth mouse, but if I move the mouse or click (or tap the phone with my finger), the pause button and seek bar ONLY show on the phone, NOT the TV.

Is there any way to fix this?

I would like to use the Bluetooth mouse as a remote, but obviously with no on-screen controls appearing, this is difficult.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asmerito:
Try to use tv remote. A lot of stuff can be controlled on my android phone via tv remote when connected via hdmi.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul22000:
Wow, I never thought to try that.

I'll test it out tonight, though I'm setting my expectations very low...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul22000:
Nope. Didn't work. Tried every button on the remote. :(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asmerito:
Sorry to hear that... I have Panasonic viera plasma tv. Some things work with remote, some not. Didn't try YouTube, but I'll report what happened.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul22000:
Darn.

I'm trying to use my phone as a set top box for YouTube etc, but the mouse not showing the on-screen controls on my TV make it impossible.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asmerito:
Well it turned out I was wrong. Nothing works via tv remote control. Tried with YouTube and xbmc. It was my sister's Xperia S. On Xperia everything works via hdmi except text input. No 3rd party app available afaik...

Sorry for inconvenience.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul22000:
No problem. I just wish there was a way :confused:

A phone with a Bluetooth mouse would be the ultimate set-top box:

- Free (since I already have a phone)

- And easily portable

What is paranoid and how does it change the dpi of just the YouTube app?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 360porcento:
Pa is a custom Rom that allows you to go under settings and customize the dpi and UI/ layout of each app... so you can have a app like the camera in the phone UI so that you have the buttons very big and you have also the Gmail app that is in tablet mode so that yo can see it in the double panel layout....

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] 2happy2:
I'm a complete noob, so go easy PLEASE, (also I've trolled the pages extensively and can't find the same issue - I hope this is not a duplicate request).

Just loaded Aurora (U16) over stock GB on a rooted U8800 (started with 5.0 exp and updated 16 over the top) and superficially at least, it seems with a fair degree of success.

Only problem is that I can't install any apps from the ext sd - I can turn on /off usb storage and the contents are visible to file manager and the pc - It just wont let me install any apps from the sd. Is there some simple setting fix - or have I stuffed the installation up??

Second, issue and maybe related - the internal sd won't show up on the pc when connected via usb, although I can't see any dia consequences if this does not work?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

:D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] entrapmen:
Try fix permissions in cwm.

About internal memory, it's a known issue on Aurora. There's only changing priority method. Which means changing a line in building.prob and it mounts internal only not the sd.

Ah, i'm not sure about mtp thing.

My screen randomly turns on and sits at the lock screen for a few seconds for no apparent reason. There are no pending notifications, etc. I assume there might be a rogue app causing this, but I don't have that many installed and even less apps doing any background tasks. Any idea on how to find the culprit?

I found this bug report where some apps are mentioned, but I'm not running any of them.

I noticed that the phone wakes up whenever it reconnects to Wi-Fi. I was changing some router settings last night and I constantly saw the phone waking up shortly after the router rebooted. However, this is not the only scenario where it does it.

Mine has done the same, no idea why, only seen it the once, but it certainly happened, sitting three feet away from me, and suddenly Bingo! its on.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grydrgn:
Mine wakes every few minutes. Certain apps (tasker, facebook etc) and syncing seem to cause it to happen more often but even if I disable most apps it still happens. I've been unable to identify the source with better battery stats. It happens bone stock and on CM10.1. I'm still getting better battery life than my GNexus but it's maddening.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigbeerdrinker:
So my Nexus 4 doesn't want to go to sleep.

- I have sleep set to 15 seconds

- Dream is off (just in case)

It just stays on. It doesn't matter if it's on the the lock screen or at the home screen. I'm guessing some app is keeping it awake. It just started last night, but I don't think I have installed any new apps. Maybe it from an update.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahikmat:
solved

My phone's screen also used to wake up randomly. it was very annoying, especially at midnight :(

finally, I found out the reason by using "Wakelock detector" app which is freely available in market.

here is XDA thread about WLD: WLD at XDA Thread

the cause of problem was ad Notification, it was holding "full wakelock" (you can see it in screenshot)

good Luck!

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fastredponycar:
As the title indicates, I've got my wifi going from your typical Linksys WRT54 and the laptop I'm on right now is connected to it and working just fine. Wife's ipad is connected and my Mytouch4G sees it as well.

I've got the wifi analyzer app on my nexus 7 and even it shows a massively strong signal from that wifi connection here in the room but alas, there is no notification on the top status bar of the device allowing me to connect to it.

I've tired restarting the device but that didn't help. Is there anything I'm missing here?

i'm running bugless beast rom which is essentially stock android 4.1.2.

EDIT: FIXED

I figured it out. Those missing settings are revealed by long pressing where it says wifi. That opened up the new menu with all the standard wifi settings. Hit scan and it found the network right away.

Case closed!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattemer:
Any other Wi-Fi connections to test it on?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fastredponycar:
the wifi analyzer sees about 6 or 7 different networks but there seems to be no way to even attempt to connect to any of them.

at my house, first time connecting it would have up in the top left corner of the screen, the little wifi cone/signal icon with the ? in it indicating that there was a connection I could hop on but that's not there right now.

the wifi icon on the top right typically indicating signal strength is totally empty.

Here mate try this. http://db.tt/MxD7F6xg. It's a temporary touch CWM recovery. Just flash through stock recovery

Anyway, is it a good idea to flash roms and stuff when your down button don't work? Say if you soft brick your phone and need to get into download mode to flash back to stock firmware, (oops can't as need the volume down key).

Unless you have a USB jig handy just to be on the safe side.

In Recovery Mode you can just use your volume+up button to scroll, right, so there shouldn't be a problem.

Why I think this is an awesome idea:

We'd probably get faster updates

We could give useful feedback to AT&T

We would be in the loop about updates

The only thing that makes me hesitate: is the lack of beta-testers the reason for slow updates? Could it simply be they don't have enough developers?

Where we are currently:

I messaged a moderator at AT&T's forums on 11/23, who is passing the idea along to her superiors.

Sir Brizz: I believe the SOAK tests done by Motorola were still permitted by AT&T, especially seeing as they also were already prepped with AT&T's standard bloat software. That, and that i doubt AT&T would have a test build released by the manufacturer on one day, and generally on the phone officially a week or less later.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] garydv2002:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] iceman4357:
I would for sure. I was a part of the SOAK test group for a while. It was mildly successful. Sometimes they would release the updates regardless of our feedback with issues. We would usually get the SOAK test and it would be released to everyone 3-7 days later....not enough time to correct bugs we found.

In Short I need a basic application made for simple website/catalog access.

First and foremost I would like to explain the nature of this request and how unique it is:

My friend began a clothing line that is soon about to take of, he has faced many adversities in his life and has prevailed through them all. This was his driving factor in creating, "BiO", or, "Believe in One", he struggles are unique because he was involved in an accident, resulting in the loss of an eye. He had to learn everything over again as a result od being laid up in bed and his depth perception being gone from the loss of his eye.

His story is here in the about me: Nobody has to go like it, just check out the story and the concept he has came up with.

https://www.facebook.com/#!/BelieveInOneBIO?fref=ts

https://www.facebook.com/#!/BelieveInOneBIO/info

I have agreed to reach out to the development community in hopes of finding a dev to create an application that will give direct access to his website as well as the Facebook page for his product, maybe even give the updates as well, depending on how easy this can be done.

http://www.ibelieveinone.com/#

Please read

I am hoping to have at least a concept of what can be done pulled together by the end of the weekend if anyone is willing to get with me and take on this project it would be greatly appreciated and you will be forever praised by Team BiO.

I myself have never built an actual application and have little to offer, if someone is willing to be the teacher then I am willing to go the next step and be the student, taking on the project myself.

Thanks again guys,

download the file that says Enable_skip_tracks_mod.zip and unzip it to the root of your sdcard (or wherever, you just need easy access)

copy the contents of the zip file (android.policy.jar) to /system/framework, (making sure to take a backup of your original for good measure) using a root explorer, i recommend es file explorer.
