[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] HuckFinn:
Regarding your #2 request, if what you are looking for is for the phone to take a picture of the user after a failed unlock attempt this is what I did in Tasker to accomplish this and more.

This will take a photo of the "intruder" after two failed attempts. With my Dropbox sync this photo is instantly uploaded to Dropbox for archival. Then the phone sends two SMS messages to my GV number, the first with the rough location based on the network and then another if GPS is able to locate them.

First you have to install the "Secure Settings" plugin from the Market. Also for photo archival I use Dropbox configured to backup my photos.

New Profile named "Unlock Fail"

Event>State>Plugin>Secure Settings

-Edit Configuration>Failed Login Attempts> 2 (your choice)

-Save

Task> New Task named "Security Photo"

-Media>Take Photo

>Front Camera

>Filename : Lock Photo

>Naming Sequence : Series

>Insert in Gallery : checked

>Descrete : checked

>Resolution: 640x480 (Your preference)

-Misc.>GPS Set On

-Misc.>Get Location

>Source NET

-Phone>Send SMS

>Number (Your choice, I use my GV number)

>Message "Someone has tried to unlock your phone, a photo has been stored and they are roughly at: %LOC"

-Misc.>Get Location

>Source GPS

-Phone>Send SMS

>Number (Same as above)

>Message "Here is their exact location: %LOC"

Then on top of this I also created another profile that would fire off this same task if an SMS is received with the text "find me". This profile also sounds an alarm so I can locate the phone.

For some other Tasker how-to's see this page, http://tasker.wikidot.com/step-throughs .
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Utini:
I would prefer Mail over SMS but the problem won't even go until the sending part as it won't even take the picture when the phone is locked with a pattern lock? Atleast for me here.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] HuckFinn:
I do not seem to have that problem. I just tried it and it worked perfectly.

Now I have my phone configured for face unlock with pattern as a backup and my phone is rooted.

-Phone was locked with the screen off.

-Hit the power button and blocked the camera so face unlock would fail.

-Entered the wrong pattern twice. Once the second attempt failed I saw GPS activate and I heard the GV notification for the received SMS.

-I never unlocked the phone and checking GV and Dropbox from a different device and the messages were sent with my location and the picture was uploaded to Dropbox.

Not sure what else to say. I think I was asked to give Tasker administrative rights along with being rooted so maybe that is the difference.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Utini:
i am rooted as well.. and tasker is in my SuperSU list :S

Rly weird
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] TravisTheRealtor:
I will pay you for Tasker Profiles

I bought tasker because I see the incredible potential for the different profiles.

That being said I am dumb and find creating the profiles that I want a little bit overwhelming.

Is you are a tasker EXPERT on this site that would like to make some profiles for me that I could download & I will pay you for them.

An example profile would be:

IF I disconnect from Wifi Network by going out of range I want to automatically turn on bluetooth for for 10 minutes.

(Usually when I walk out of wifi range I am walking to my car which bluetooths music/calls off my phone)

IF within that 10 minutes I connect to a bluetooth device I would like to keep the bluetooth on until the pairing is broken. IF NOT bluetooth will be turned off after the 10 minutes

When the bluetooth pairing is broken I would like the phone to turn on Wifi for 10 minutes as I am usually walking to my office/house or place with wifi

IF within that 10 minutes a wifi network is connected then wifi will remain on IF NOT then wifi will be turned off

This is just one of probably 10 or so possible profiles I would like to create that are custom to my circumstances

I have a galaxy S4 Active from AT&T that is rooted

If you are interested in creating profiles for me please message me with your expertise & what a profile would cost

For most of you creating these things are childs play however for me it is not

This is my first time posting so if this is the wrong place to put this please direct me to a different area.

I had a mate with this problem with his S2.He tried everything from reinstalling keis to full wipe installing the rom to stock rom and nothing.In the end he solved it by plugging his old i9000 into his PC and when it said it was recognized he unplugged it and plugged in his S2 and it recognized his S2....simple but true.

Try plugging in another S3 or better still an S2 or S1 so the PC recognizes the drivers and then plug in your S3.It may work like it did for my mate.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] icanrule:
I've read the rules and I'm not sure if asking this question is taboo or not. I'm not looking to see a Nexus but I am looking to buy one. But the problem is the pickings now-a-days are limited.

The first thing I want to make clear is that I want to buy it through an official channel. Nothing like ebay or classifieds where someone can sell me a big old heap of dung. Fido used to sell it for $350.00 but they have discontinued the product. There is expansys but they might as well call it expensys. It's going for $425.00 + $25.00 shipping + taxes. I'd probably being paying $500.00 for a product that is quickly becoming defunct.

The main reason I want this device is because I have all this cool schwag that I bought for it that I don't want to go to waste. Any ideas on where I can find this device?

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] WestAussie:
Hey folks, I can probably guess at why this happens, but I was hoping someone would have a definitive answer and a possible solution.

I work in remote parts of Australia where the only internet is Telstra 3G, so I use my phone as a modem to surf the net on my lap-top. Obviously when fully charged I don't need to have the phone plugged into the wall or USB port, so I get normal speeds. But as soon as I plug her in, the speeds drop immediately. I've done multiple speedtest.net tests so I know it's happening. It even happened when I had an iPhone4 (yeah, I know...) so it seems to be something to do with charging. Is it an elctromagnetic thing that affects the aerial reception? Is there a way to reduce this interference? Kinda sucks when you want to download and charge at the same time. Or play WoW and not get too much lag... :D

Thanks in advance.

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] Rekoil:
I would say that your charger is introducing a source of interference. About WoW though, you shouldn't really be peaking your bandwidth in games, it's more about latency there, so that shouldn't be affected by this unless you're dropping packets when charging (could be).

How long have you owned your nexus 4? I was shocked at my battery life at first, but after about 2 weeks it significantly improved. Now I can easily last 12 hours with about 2,5h screen time. Not as impressive as some others, but still doable. So you might just want to give your device a few weeks to get used to you using it.

AW: Lock screen clock lag on P880

Does it come every time if you lock it and then unlock it?

Or just if you lock it, wait for a few minutes and then unlock it?

If it is the second one, it looks like your phone is going to deep sleep very fast, so you don't need to care about it. It's just like the phone goes in a very deep sleep and does almost nothing, so it doesn't refresh the clock, too, when it's locked... You can see that the phone is in Deep Sleep, because it takes 1 or more seconds to turn the display on...

I think that's your "problem", but who cares? You always know what time it is after maybe 2 seconds and you lose less battery energie if it is in deep sleep...

You understood?

[LG Optimus 4X HD] Marcb:
what firmware do you have installed?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Florin1:
@BlackDuty

The second one, I lock it, I wait a little and then I unlock it, after the display turns on the clock updates after approximately one sec, but i rather drain the battery faster for a quicker update of the clock.

My firmware is V10H Euro but i even had the V10E and the same problem occurred on both versions.

I get you man! It almost drove crazy! and yes the sounds in question are located in /system/media/audio/ui/

I change 2 files : S_HW_Touch.ogg and TW_Touch.ogg with 2 files I picked from AOSP 4.2, set the permissions correctly and reboot ... voila , no more water-drops .

For the dialer you need to rename/remove/or replace Dialer_new.ogg in the same directory.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carlitos66:
I would love to know how to do it as well. The key tones on the dialer are very important to have certain sound, for some visually impaired people using this phone it really helps to listen to the key sound when pressing numbers to confirm right number has been pressed. Anybody at Samsung reads this forum? Can you please put back regular telephone dial sounds? What was wrong with the sound? This device is a telephone, right? If anybody can help me I would donate him. Thanx.

you have to change the mount from R/O to R/W in the root explorer. & make a backup of the old files just in case. then copy paste the new files overwriting the old ones. change back the permission from R/W to R/O, reboot & enjoy.

I know it's been a long time but i just found this and wanted to share it with you guys:

Now after unzipping the apk the ogg file is there, it should be the one as it sounds like the dialer. I tried all the stupid tricks I know (replacing it with another file and zipping back the whole thing, renaming it to apk since apk files are just fancy zips => didn't work. Tried embedding it in a flashable vrtheme zip file since those decompile, mod and recompile the apk => didn't work.) I don't know how to properly decompile an apk and since everyone is using a different ROM it'll be difficult to post requests.

I've been able to change the touch sounds from water drop to click which was pretty straight forward however the keypad dialler 'spelling"

was located in a different place than otherwise noted on the forum.

The dialler touch sounds were located in a different place than the touch wiz sounds. and it was one file not broken down into 1 2 3 ect.

This is for 4.1.2 i9100.

So I put it into the to hard to do basket and just left it. Sure you can use a app dialler but I like stock.

Wouldn't you think that someone as big as Samsung would allow you to make a simple sound change just by going to settings - sound.

Good luck.

(EDIT) - nevermind - now I understand the post above indicates that the file is located inside SecContacts.apk

SecContacts.apk\res\raw\touch.ogg

Does anyone know where to find the above file? I searched in Root Explorer from the top level (Root) but didn't find it.

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drawingbreath:
I took delivery of a brand new sealed Nook HD+ that I bought of eBay, yesterday and as soon as I got it open I noticed that the "n" for the home button seemed a bit less proud than other Nooks I've seen. I've since compared it directly with another Nook HD+ and there is definite movement in the glass front, that is noticeable when pressing the home button on mine.

Is this a common fault and is there a way to fix the problem myself?
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] datas0ft:
I think you must contact with seller and ask to replace item or just send back and get full refund. Your described problem indicates to faulty item.

I don have any other information and i can only hope next things:

- Item is badly composed and must be covered with warranty to item change/replace with new one.

- Item was previously used and dropped, then no warranty cover. Maybe you see some scratch on corner or somewhere. Only full refund at seller and item back sending.

- Item was previously opened/disassembled with wrong method and assembled back wrong too. Again, if there was no reference about this button problem on ebay description, then you must get full refund and etc. Contact seller or open case on ebay if you have problems with contacting with seller.

Hope you get solution.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drawingbreath:
I'm loathe to return the item because it's otherwise perfect. The box was factory sealed when it arrived and still in cellophane. This strikes me as a fault caused by screws not being flush and could probably be rectified at my end.
