I'd really like a theme for my Note 2 thst looks like Windows Phone OS. Is there anything like that out there?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] GetPatriotized:
Get Launcher 7 or Launcher 8 from the Play Store.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Android_Noob_2k12:
I've downloaded a theme from the play store before but couldnt figure out how to apply it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Android_Noob_2k12:
I downloaded both launcher 7 and 8. 8 isnt very good but 7 is okay. If rather have a theme in the form of a rom. But if you don't want to root these are good alternatives.

hello

i have here a 7'' tablet that i would like to insert in a acessorie in my car. the problem is that once inserted, i cannot seed the entire screen. i have to reduce the screen displayed in the tablet to match the accesorie size. is any app or mod to do it?

thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
You can edit the screens dpi using a build.prop editor such as this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/...utm_medium=organic&utm_term=build+prop+editor. Then look for a property similar to ro.sf.lcd_density=240, then change 240 to whatever you want, save and reboot your device. Your display should now show less on the screen.

Not even close. It costs that little to assemble a smartphone because they are buying components in bulk. Expect significantly higher prices IF you could even get the components. Then enjoy writing drivers, fighting hardware failure and just generally having a miserable time.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] destructo322:
Hello XDA,

First time posting so I have to ask in Q&A rather than the thread for MultiROM itself. I've been to these forums quite a few times for rooting and unlocking other's devices, but now that I have a Nexus 7 myself, it's time to start messing around with it.

So the situation for my problem is that I have successfully installed MultiROM and was able to boot up my stock image fine, but when I installed Cyanogenmod 10.0.0, the screen automatically goes to the boot screen for Cyanogenmod rather than asking which ROM to boot and then just hangs on that boot screen forever.

I have not used the kexec hardboot patches for anything yet so it can be that I should be using those somewhere along in the process.

Also, how do I go about uninstalling MultiROM so that I can start all over again? Do I just go into TWRP and hit "install" and choose the stock image for 4.2.1?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mac of York:
It's overwriting the kernel with one of its own... that's the only thing I can think of. Flash a kernel that has MultiROM support like m or motley.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] destructo322:
Does this mean that I should find a version of CM that has one of those kernels? Or do i simply flash the kernel by itself and that would overwrite the CM kernel so that the problem would be resolved?

Also I tried installing Kaos Droid and chose the option to install the M kernel before CM actually and I remember that it also would just boot to a completely black screen and nothing past that. So i'm not sure if it's the kernel. But i did just successfully go back to stock and rooted again so that I will try out your suggestions tomorrow. Thanks.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mac of York:
You can flash the kernel separately and it'll be fine.

what are some essential things to know abuot this phone and what apps should I download for this phone? i want to get the most out of it!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkoolpatz:
First of all Welcome to XDA.. and great choice. Note 2 is amazing.

Start slow. If this is not your first android, then start with what apps you already had on your prior phone,

Go thru all the settings, some of them are very cool.

Try the motion sensor help and tutorials.

If this is your first android get used to the android world. Key is to not hurry. and you will learn and get used to things.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] resmat:
Thank you but not only is this my first android but it's also my first smart phone! so i'm a little out of my element here hehe.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zool84:
hello and welcome to xda !

first of all try read to learn about amazing android features (root, flashing, etc)

if you have any question, ther's Q&A section

and don't forget to search before asking because i bet that all your questions had been asked before :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kylec:
Hi there and welcome. To add on to what the other guys said, the best way to go is to just look through all the menus and get familiar with where the various settings and options are and what they do.

Look up some blogs or posts that go over the basics of android and customisation. For example alternative home screens like apex launcher and Nova launcher are quite popular and really great if you want to make your home screen really stand out.

Also look into alternative keyboards if you find that the stock keuboard doesn't suit you to well. Keyboards like swift key and thumb keyboard are quite popular.

And as someone else already mentioned, going through the q&a section is a good way to learn about any issues and questions others have already asked.

Have fun

Just get used to it. Don't rush. I also bought this great gadget a few weeks ago. If you are an avid reader download Kindle, Kobo, Aldiko Premium, or UB Reader and enjoy thousands of books. Look which browser suits you best. Download Opera Mobile, truly great browser. Download Polaris Office from Samsung Apps or get Quickoffice Pro or Kingsoft Office from Google Play. Get app Note Everything, looks like a must have app.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guitar4Him:
I've had a Droid X2 for about a year. My wife decided that she wanted to try a smart phone and liked my X2. So, I got a Galaxy Note II for myself and gave her the X2. On my Note II, Verizon assigned the phone number I had previously on my X2. Then, they assigned the phone number my wife had been using on her previous "dumb phone" to the X2. I didn't do a factory reset on the X2...we just assigned the new number. Well, everything's working fine except for one thing. Somehow, the X2 seems to know that it previously had the other phone number and if I call her or text her from my Note II, the call or text shows as coming from a contact called "Me" instead of my name. I've searched everywhere trying to get rid of "Me" but no luck.

Anybody got any ideas?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coronero:
I think that somewhere in the Phone or Contacts apps, I've seen an option to set "Own number" that was used for that kind of things, but I'm not sure on which ROM did I see it, and it may be a different story for phone. But you can give it a try and search in that direction, maybe it helps.

Sooo.. boxing day beers were flowing. . I got slightly intoxicated. . Woke up and tried skyping with relatives. Which at this point I realised I'd smashed the lens cover on my s3! Gutted ain't the word,

Any ways to cut a long story short.. what are my options now? Can u buy complete camera and lense cover packages? Do I need just the lens cover? Why doesn't it focus?

If you can advise me on what to do now i would be very grateful Thanks.
[Galaxy S III General] Dean-xXx:
For your problem you will need something like this ->> http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Original-CAM...953710?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item416b1d41ae

And if you say it doesn't focus at all , camera might be damaged... but you should check it better before considering a replace.

Take care.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitalbots:
So my wife has a Atrix that is running the Neutrino Rom 2.9. The issue is she can play games, surf the web, but as soon as she gets a call her screen will lock up and go black. It then stays that way and it takes several calls before she can get the screen unlocked so she can pick up. I already loaded the blue sleep fix and the raindrop fix and it still is doing this. So my question is there app i can load that could fix this? Or is this phone screwed?:silly:
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitalbots:
Ok Thanks to reading the FAQ i think i fixed the issue. So far i am 2+hrs into the fix and it is working. What I did was the following

Step 1:

Go to Google Play store

Step 2

Download and install CPU master (your phone must be rooted to do this, also if you are running into this problem you more than likely have a custom rom.)

Step 3

Open the app (CPU Master)

Once it is open set your' Min:" to 312mhz, also check on 'Set On Boot'.

Step 4

Reboot your phone twice. It has to boot all the way up to the home screen, then reboot again. ( i dont know why it doesnt work on first boot but I tired it 3 times and each time it took two reboots)

Step 5

Enjoy

[HTC One S] kkoolpatz:
What "Stuff" are you trying to do ? Your best bet would be to mount the sd card on the computer via card slot, and copy a rom on the card. insert in again in your phone and flash. You do not need debugging on to flash a new rom.

... Except the fact the S does not have a removable SD card...

You could try enter the bootloader and try adb from there. I can connect to my device in bootloader via adb, but I havnt tried sending anything to it.

What recovery are you using? Ive heard (quite a lot) of people having issues with CWM not being able to mount the sdcard.

You could try TWRP instead, which you should be able to flash via fastboot.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veener79:
Today I ordered my first tablet I ordered the Nexus 7. Just liked what was built into it for the money. I have been loving this forum for working on my Android phones. This will be my first Android that is not a phone. Was kind of shocked I could order it from Amazon where I have $100 in gift cards from Xmas. Free shipping was nice.

When started with my Captivate it was my first Android phone. It look me a little learning to get it down. When I got to my Infuse it was a nice and easy to go over to. Compared to the Captive the Infuse is very brick proof.

Before I start to tweak my Nexus I want to make sure I have all the right info. Looking at the development area I see there is all ready CM threads. I have loved CM from the start.

These are a few questions I have:

How brick proof in the Nexus 7? I see threads about soft bricking. Not much about bricking it beyond repair.

Is there any way to get my Mirco USB to HDMI adapter from my Infuse to work with the Nexus to hook up to my TV?

Except for what I can think of for a case is there any good accessories I should get the Nexus 7?

Thanks for any help.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkuczy16:
Congrats, the Nexus 7 is amazing! If you follow directions exactly then it is nearly impossible to brick your device, FOLLOW DIRECTIONS! And no there is no way of a getting HDMI because the Nexus just doesnt support it. As for a nice case is the Poetic Slimline(it is just like the iPad covers and has the SmartWake feature, very nice case).Hope i helped and best of luck with your new tablet!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veener79:
Thanks.

Looked at some reviews of that case. I like it a lot! Might go with that one.

Yes I follow directions very well with it comes to ROM. Have seen way to many people almost brick their phones over the years. Infuse is to brick proof luckily many have been saved.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Comet1966:
Ok, so TWRP 2.3.3.0 isn't fixing the Internal storage when I go from 4.1 to 4.2, It moves my files to data/media, but when I go back to 4.1 it deletes all my files.....why?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bodh:
You're a little unclear. When going to 4.2, i would think it would move sd contents to data/media/0. When reverting to 4.1, well im not quite sure what would happen, but it certainly doesn't make sense that they would be deleted without wipe. Are you sure they're not nested, i.e. data/media/0/0? I know i had an issue where i couldnt ota from 4.2 to 4.2.1, so i had to restore a 4.1.2 nandroid before the updates. After that, i had the above nest /0/0..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Comet1966:
Yeah all the space freed up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bodh:
Was it a nandroid restore? The only thing i could think of is that you didnt have the files when you did the backup.. Or again, possibly a wipe. If you just did a dirty flash, well then i don't have any idea, because i always wipe.

Use a third party dialer such as exDialer from the PlayStore.

I downloaded it and it is what should have been stock. The ability to hear the standard tones is only the beginning. I have missed the ability to simply start out in the dialer and not whatever was used last. The calls I make are on the speed dial. I'll try it out. But I think I'm going to keep it.

So, why is the flagship phone of Samsung using a drip sound for the keys? It seems that it is a standard of the industry. The patent for the tones must have run out 40 years ago.

Anyone got an answer?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] niteh@wk:
I don't think it's patent related. Only reason I can think of is because Samsung designed the S3 with a nature theme in mind, the water drip sounds are all over the place: the lockscreen, touch sounds, dialer.
