I used to get that a lot, so I just disabled my original lock screen. But sometimes it would still happen, the phone would just wake up straight to the launcher. Remember that widget locker is actually a launcher itself, so what I did was clear the defaults on TW launcher, Nova Launcher (one I am using) and Widget Locker, and then set the default again for Nova after hitting home, then went in and set up widget locker again to default. That seems to have fixed it.

Just tried this. Works well. Go here: http://www2.research.att.com/~ttsweb/tts/demo.php

Enter text you would like as your notification. Select voice. Save and rename. Go to online .wav to mp3 convertor of your choice and convert. Copy file and paste in your Note's notification folder. Go to settings, sound, default notifications and select file you just created. *note: female voices seem to be more easily heard (years in an artillery unit didn't help my hearing at all). I guess it's the pitch.

Hi,

My phone has the usb port malfunction and my pc doesn't recognize it (charging mode only).

I want to install a different rom and I understand that i have to backup the EFS first, is there a way to backup EFS without using the usb?

Thanks,

Oded
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 4-2ndtwin:
If u r Rooted, use Root Explorer to make a copy of the efs folder and paste it to ur internal sdcard and just rename it efs-backup. Keep it there for possible future use.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
Making a copy of the efs folder may or may *not* allow you to restore the efs data. The best way to make a backup on the phone is to use terminal emulator and use the dd command. I don't remember the exact partition and dd command off the top of my head, but you should be able to find good instructions on how to do that. Of course, you must be rooted.

It is always advisable to have an efs backup for your phone, and keep a copy on the phone, and another copy off the phone. But many people customize their phones without making an efs backup. Not suggesting you should, just saying.

BTW, it is said to be relatively easy and inexpensive to replace the usb port on your phone yourself. The part is like $6 or $7.

[Nexus 4 Accessories] cavallino33:
I used to have an iphone 4 and I had a nice clear case that gripped the sides of the case without overlapping the front. I would really like to have something like that for the Nexus 4. Anything that has a lip over the front tends to collect pocket dust like crazy and clear cases seem harder to find for android phones. I don't want anything that is silicon. I don't know if what I want is really possible, the iphone had that infamous metal ring that gave the case something to grip on without going over the front.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] ketjr81:
Yeah that's a tough one, I think most people actually like to have the overlapping on the front so the screen doesn't contact a surface if it's face down. When looking up cases they point that out too as one of the pro's of their case.

I'm sure more cases and options will come out for this phone, they were probably waiting to see the actual demand for this phone and it seems there is more demand for this phone then companies thought there would be.

I'm waiting for something like Spigen has for the iphone, it looks like a bumper with a clear part on the back. Not sure if they'll make that either, if not I'll stick to finding a good bumper.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] robollama:
I'm in the same boat. I was actually looking at one last night but now I can't find it!

What it did was overlapped only on the corners. So, the corners were protected and the face of the phone wouldn't touch when lying face-down, but you still had the ability to easily use gestures on the curved screen.

That case would be so perfect for me if it had the back cut out to show the glass back design. Be a shame to cover it up.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] SovereigN7:
It is a shame but most people with clear cases end up with yellowish tinted case after getting it dirty. Also, the rearth ringke cases are I believe still slippery, not much grip compared to diztronics or other brands.

[Nexus 4 Accessories] cavallino33:
I don't know I think I may just go caseless and rely on the scratch resistance of gorilla glass. I am not worried about drops I can prevent that, it just seems silly to put a case on to protect the pretty back when it obscures the pretty back. Kind of like keeping a fancy watch in a safe so you don't scratch it.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] e.mote:
>http://www.onskreen.com/cornerstone

>but nobody ever seems to work with it. any particular reason why?

No interest. Probably why it went open-source (it wasn't originally). My guess is that pushing bits for 3 concurrent apps would require more than a simple launcher swap, ie low-level optimization, and the OnSkreen peeps weren't up to it. Something like this would need to be done by Google.

The reason for lack of interest is obvious. Up till recently, Android's focus has been on phones, and muti-windowing is irrelevant on those. Even now, phone is Android's primary focus given its market size. The tablet's unique traits are still mainly left unexplored. Witness that multi-user acct--an arguably essential feature--was implemented only now in the latest 4.2 release.

IMO, the 3-pane fixed layout looks clunky (and ugly, but aesthetics can change). The need to configure each panel is clumsy as well, as opposed to, say, Win8's split-window scheme where one can config each window on-the-fly. Win8 does have the advantage of edge-swiping, which gives it an extra layer of configurability.

The underlying weakness of both this and Win8's fixed dual-windows layout is the Achilles' heel of touch UI (relative to mouse UI)--the lack of a precise pointer that would allow easy manipulation of multiple, possibly overlapping windows. Pen input is an option, but is likely not the answer.

The issue is resolvable, and for mobile OS'es to take the next step up from phone displays to larger form-factors, it will need to be resolved. Take this and Win8's split-screen as the first baby steps.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jotokun:
It doesnt help that when Cyanogenmod was considering baking Cornerstone into their builds, Google threatened to blacklist their roms from accessing the market/Google Play if they didnt change their mind due to potential compatibility issues... since then its seemed nobody wanted to risk touching it. Too bad, while I agree three panes were clunky, two panes like WinRT does could have been quite nice.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] e.mote:
>It doesnt help that when Cyanogenmod was considering baking Cornerstone into their builds, Google threatened to blacklist their roms from accessing the market/Google Play if they didnt change their mind due to potential compatibility issues...

Didn't know that, but it makes sense. Fixed layouts like this (and Win8's) rely on specific criteria to work, ie a widescreen aspect in landscape mode. While MS can dictate the form-factor for Win devices, Android devices come in varying shapes, and fixed layouts are doomed to fail.

For multi-windowing to work, layout needs to be adjustable, as well as dynamically adjusts to both portrait and landscape orientations. Secondly, multi-window needs to be supported by all apps, not just some (like in Samsung's implementation). This means it needs to be in the OS, not an add-on.

Samsung's multi-window scheme is a more elaborate version, and is probably a precursor of what we'll see in Android. Note however that the Galaxy Note 10.1 in this example has pen input support, which obviates the Fat Finger syndrome. A platform-wide scheme will need to accommodate "imprecise" adjustments, which IMO will likely mean a snap-to-grid windowing system.

[YOUTUBE]NxW88EQRdDk[/YOUTUBE]

Edit: I added video for the 5.5" Galaxy Note 2 below. Even though the Note 2 supports S-Pen, apparently the cascading/adjustable window portion was dropped, and only the adjustable dual-window remains.

This makes sense for screen sizes 7" or smaller, and would be an improvement over Metro's current scheme. But the missing piece is for larger sizes WITHOUT the precision (and fiddliness) of pen input. This matters especially when tablets gain the use of external displays via Miracast. Again, my opinion is that cascading/overlapping windowing is still doable for Sausage Styluses, rather than just tiled, but snap-to-grid would be needed.

I have a question about Triangle Away, I have the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 AT&T SGH-I317 model, I just installed CF-Auto-Root for my first time, and immediately installed Triangle Away from the Google Play Store after.

I rebooted into the "special mode" and did Volume Up to reset counter and status.

This is what is listed after a reboot into special mode again

Device: SGH-I317

Flash counter: 1

Binary status: custom

Upon rebooting back into Android, TriangleAway app says:

Current status cannot be determined. Need to reboot into a special bootmade tap Reset flash counter.

Which I did.

Is this how it should be? Did Triangle Away work? Aside from flashing a completely STOCK nonroot ROM, is there any additional steps required if I needed to exchange for a warranty?

If I go into download mode, it just says the typical WARNING: A custom OS can cause critical problems.... blah blah.... if you want to download a custom OS, prell the vloume up key.... blah blah"

So you had to install the persues kernel before it displayed that?

May I ask why you did this?

go into download mode press volume up

and you should see your flash count. Because Triangle Away didnt gave me that exact comment.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scott_doyland:
Are you using TWRP, if so then...

In the latest version of TWRP for the nexus 4/7/10

(note that /sdcard is really /data/media in Android 4.x)

1. TWRP option to factory reset does NOT wipe /data/media (where photos, titanium backups etc are stored)

It does wipe /data (where apps are installed).

A factory reset from within the stock ROM does wipe /data/media and /data and leaves just /system (ROM) intact.

I would say that is a bit confusing to the end user as a factory reset can mean different things in this case.

2. TWRP option to wipe internal storage ONLY wipes /data/media (this will include all sub directories inc multiuser subdirs).

3. TWRP option to 'format data' wipes/formats /data and /data/media (so it ends up like it would after a stock ROM factory reset)

4. TWRP option to wipe system ONLY wipes /system (ie the actual ROM).

I would guess if anyone has had TWRP wipte /data/media when chosing the TWRP factory reset option then its maybe a bug at an older level.

The above is all much better explained in the links provided by an earlier posters, ie

[Galaxy Note II General] TJCacher:
Hello,

I happen to have 2 fast microSD 64 gigabyte storage cards, and decided to run a benchmark test on each, using my International Galaxy Note II model GT-N7100. I thought there might be some interest on the forum in whether there's any significant performance difference between these cards on our devices.

The two cards are as follows:

- Sandisk Ultra Class 10 64gb microSD

- Samsung UHS-1 64gb microSD

Both cards are empty, and factory-formatted with the exFat file system. Prior to testing on my phone, I mounted each card in a USB 2.0 card reader attached to my Windows 7 laptop and did a full chkdsk with sector scan to verify the storage was as advertised and there were no problems. Both cards scanned as clean with no detectable problems.

My phone is running Android 4.1.1, using Samsung baseband N7100XXALJ2, kernel version 3.0.31-310959, with a build number of JRO03C.N7100XXALJ3.

This phone has never been rooted or flashed with a non-factory ROM.

The benchmarking program I chose to use was "SD Card Tester" version 1.0.5 as downloaded from the Google Play Store.

Each card was tested immediately after rebooting the device and waiting one minute for the system to fully stabilize. Power Saving mode was not active during these tests.

I ran each test 3 times. The results below are the average of the 3 tests per card.

Sandisk Ultra Class 10 (64gb) results:

13.68 MB/s read, 10.26 MB/s write

Samsung UHS-1 (64gb) resuts:

32.8 MB/s read, 14.65 MB/s write

I hope some of you find this information useful. If anyone has questions or suggestions for other ways to compare these storage options, let me know.

I was getting worse results with my phone but considering the Sandisk only cost $40 I'm not overly concerned. So long as it doesn't die on me. The Samsung card is like double the price of the Sandisk.
[Galaxy Note II General] TJCacher:
Well, I've got a bit of a disappointing update as I've continued to work with these cards today.

Once you load up these cards with data, a lot of the performance advantage for the Samsung appears to go away.

I now have both of these cards about 33% full (same directories and files on each), and I'm finding no more than 1.5 to 2.5 MB/s measurable difference, either in writing or reading. Although the Samsung has remained the fastest in every test so far, it really isn't much of a difference at this point.

I'd like to understand why the Samsung card appears to suffer more of a performance drop than the Sandisk as the cards fill up, but can't hazard a guess right now.

The small differences I'm now seeing, both in tests as well as normal usage, certainly do nothing to justify the premium price of the Samsung card, IMO.
[Galaxy Note II General] ronj1986:
My results
[Galaxy Note II General] TJCacher:
Couple of comments:

1) You need to bump up the size slider to about 2150MB to get a reliable result. As you move the slider, a colored pop-up will turn green when you have reached a size that should yield "excellent" results.

2) Unless you have somehow swapped the internal & external storage cards on your device, your screenshot appears to show the results of testing your internal card rather than your external one.

If 2) is the case, here is a graphic showing how to select your external card (it can be somewhat tricky with this app, especially the "tap" called for in step one - I often have to double-tap rather than single-tap, and it usually doesn't work the first time or two I try it...).
