Hi All,

Does XDA/iPAQ supports WML?. If I am not the browser comes with both model is Microsoft IE, which doesn't supports WML at all. Can anyone tell me what I have to do to run execute WML page on my XDA/iPAQ?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Prabhpreet.

Why do people keep saying PIE is not capable of WML.

Ive been visiting this site everyday since before

installing the wm2003 rom. Could it be carrier dependent?

So the issue i'm having is when put my battery in or plug the phone into any power source it boots up and stops at the lg splash screen. I have tried going into recovery mode via power + vol down key combination and it dose not allow it in it just stays on lg screen. the other issue is when i plug it into my computer i get a notification saying that the usb device is not recognized i have tried putting it to usb mode via power + vol up key but still no dice. This happened after flashing cyanogen 7 to my phone it worked fine for a few days then i turned it off one night as to not be bothered with calls. the next morning it started this problem. i have browsed the forums looking for a solution none of which seem to have worked. any insight into this would be nice

notes:

-can

not

get into recovery mode / cwm

-can

not

put to usb mode

-for the issue with it not being recognized by the computer i have tried 3 different cables on win 8,7 and vista and on both my laptop and desktop using different usb ports. going to try xp tonight

-exact device model = P925g Optimus 3d with Rogers canada.

-to the forum admin pleas feel free to move this thread into the right section if i posted in the wrong one
[LG Optimus G (International)] rogem_kk:
Turn the phone off

Hold down the volume down key and then plug in the USB cable. See if you get something.

Ok so i always hear a lot of people saying how they dislike touchwiz and that stock android is the best blah blah blah... So I was wondering, would you guys have preferred a note 2 with stock android and no S-pen or do you love it with touchwiz? I'm asking because I love touchwiz, I think its the best skin out there and it is a big reason why the note 2 is so awesome. But would you have preferred a note 2 with the same super AMOLED screen, same 3100mah battery but no spen, no touchwiz ( bye bye multi-window, spen features.....) running stock android?
[Galaxy Note II General] anonymous572:
Touchsh*t is slow and ugly as sh*t. That's why I delete touchwiz launcher and use Nova Prime launcher. Stock android iterface is much faster and smoother. Too bad that CyanogenMod for all samsung phones is very very unstable and buggy. I'm forced to use samsung official rom's with half touchwiz (with deleting touchwiz launcher). Will be great if someone can do normal non buggy CyanogenROM and port S Planner, S Note and Camera app into it.

Besides, multiwindows from Note 2 sucks. Look at Galaxy Note 10.1 multiwindows, I tried it at mobile store, it is great!
[Galaxy Note II General] cashyftw:
I've been running cm based roms since the first galaxy s (galaxy s, galaxy s2 note 1, galaxy s3, galaxy note 2), however, I made the switch back to touch wiz on my note today. Reasoning: I just feel it's more useful than a cm based rom on this device, and it's not as bad it use to be (believe me). So my vote goes to touch wiz ATM. Will I ever switch back to a cm based rom? Of course, but it's not a must have for me, for the first time.

*these are my options, I'm not basing anyone, or anything, and if you feel as if I insulted you...---- off (;*

I hate TW, but CM is such unstable because of Sammy not releasing sources.. :(

So I'm using TW.

I'm now waiting for MIUI V5, as its 100% stable and doesn't have TW look. (only features and base)
[Galaxy Note II General] tyler78:
I don't hate Touchwiz but I'm using Nova Launcher Prime. And you don't lose very much with using a third party launcher. I can still use popup note, s-pen, multi window etc. My toggles in notification bar are still the same. I don't know what people are losing with using a third party launcher. It only adds to the phone.
[Galaxy Note II General] jujuburi:
TW is a framework, not just a launcher :rolleyes:

Between those two, TW any day, any time. Stock Android is nothing but a hype.

'Swyped' from my GT-N7100
[Galaxy Note II General] rashid.fairus:
cm=fast+buggy (for now)

tw=a bit slow+stable

so own choice

for me as long as I can make call and play game, it doenst matter:)
[Galaxy Note II General] AlanDS:
I like TouchWiz(stock rom) as it's stable and quite fast. At the moment, CM based ROMs are too unstable.
[Galaxy Note II General] irish-sid:
Touchwiz isn't just the launcher for Christ's sake. This is why Touchwiz gets all this hate, people not realising this simple point. Yes, the Touchwiz LAUNCHER is crappy and a lot of people including myself use one from the store, but Touchwiz itself with all its features is by far better than the featureless stock android (CM ect..)
[Galaxy Note II General] Tzarski:
Note 2 is my first Android device that I'm using completely stock...

I don't know why. ... I had many other android phones and tablets and all of them were flashed custon roms and kernels only couple of hours after purchase. ..

I love my note 2!
[Galaxy Note II General] aviralsingh16:
Yup I use apex launcher and S pen multi window and all the features work in it I don't like touchwiz just try apex launcher. Its awesome and highly customisable with air view works in it and holo look. Touchwiz is not that customizable however its good for the ppl who wants simple , fast and easy UI.

I recommend using a launcher mainly with NOTE 2 use Nova and Apex.

[Galaxy Note II General] NightHawkUndead:
All phones I've had previously I've always ran CM. Once I got the Note 2 didn't find it necessary. Phone runs great on TW and has great features that I actually use at work and home life. And the battery is just perfect.
[Galaxy Note II General] MarionCast:
What?!

I don't even know where to begin...

No. I will exercise restraint. IMO, multiwindow is and can be very helpful. Sure, it's much more useful on 10.1-inch screen, but that doesn't make it less useful on Note2 and its 5.5-inch screen. It's multitasking heaven IMO.
[Galaxy Note II General] mani0608:
Both are good...

Friends,

We are on Android, the most powerful OS currently on market (I think everybody in XDA will agree to this). Then why do you people worry. You can always switch back and forth between them.

You have Titanium Backup if you are rooted and even you have Carbon for unrooted device. So better give it a try for all the roms available. All of them are great. And i personally love CM 10.1 with all its additional customization features.

So i used to switch back and forth between them :)

And i also heard that some devs have started working on dual booting, but i am not sure about the recent updates on it.

I love both, and at the same time, yes, Stock on Note II is excellent.
[Galaxy Note II General] donec:
@B3311 Please explain what you mean as apex launcher is not warez.

---------- Post added at 01:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:54 PM ----------

Your poll leaves out another option and that is keep most of what it TouchWiz but add customization by using Nova.
[Galaxy Note II General] mazdamiata210:
I think by getting rid of touchwiz you're losing too much functionality with the phone. I've tried a few different roms and launchers. From completely different cm10.1 to just nova launcher and I always come back to touchwiz... There is no lag, from what I can tell, on touchwiz. Everything works the way it should. It's not worth it to lose the features that samsung added to this phone. If I wanted to do that I could have kept my note 1 running cm9.
[Galaxy Note II General] B3311:
As you are well aware, Blackmarket Alpha is a warez site. Your editing skills are marvellous. Idiot.
[Galaxy Note II General] hannsz:
AOKP (or CM, or AOSPA..) all the way. Retains the functionality of the S-Pen and only loses multiwindow, which I don't find useful anyway. Also, it allows me to use the latest version of Android (4.2.2) which has a useful account manager that lets my friends use a completely separate account from me.

I don't necessarily dislike Touchwiz but it's not as aesthetically pleasing, and I have a hard time understanding why it's about 500MB heavier than AOSP.
[Galaxy Note II General] barondebxl:
Maybe because it has 500 more features than stock android?
[Galaxy Note II General] hannsz:
AOKP/PA/AOSPA are not stock Android and also have 500 more features than stock Android, including full S-Pen support.

The Touchwiz theme and motion sensor stuff is not that heavy.
[Galaxy Note II General] barondebxl:
Touchwiz has more "heavy" features

you're comparing multi-window vs changing dpi/ppi, smart stay vs being able to change the clock to small am or pm stuff like that.
[Galaxy Note II General] jonatton:
Full S-pen support? It doesn't have plenty of stuff that works exclusively with Touchwiz framework - say handwriting recognition, S Note, etc.

Not a fan of touchwiz interface at all, but no way in hell am I switching to AOSP/AOKP, at the cost of losing those features. And though it doesn't come by default, I'd also miss Polaris office - hands down the best office app around.
[Galaxy Note II General] victorator:
It's a matter of preference and also compromise.

If you want to go for the newest android available just choose any of the AOSP roms available, however you will lose the stock camera app which is the best and you will lose the battery efficiency. You will also use the samsung features.

What do you gain? More customizability and the newest Android experience (unfortunately including all the bugs it has also). I love aosp roms, CM/AOSPA you name it, but because of lack of sources they just don't work as good as the stock rom... It's a shame really because I really enjoy AOSP but then again the stock touchwiz roms are really polished and have excellent battery life and performace so what more could I ask for...
[Galaxy Note II General] hannsz:
Changing DPI/PPI works fine on TW ROMs too, which is very nice. Multiwindow IMO is little more than a gimmick on a small screen (well, a 720p screen) and better suited for tablets and higher resolution devices.

The rest of the the "motion" features I've never seen use for. Smart stay? :confused: Pan and tilt to zoom in on an image using the inferior stock gallery? Quick glance?

The two best things to come out of TW are the "direct call" feature and the camera.

Yes, full S-Pen support. Recognition for the pen, calibration, the 1024 levels of sensitivity, etc... What apps you use for that are up to you.
[Galaxy Note II General] Lord2802:
I've never felt the need to change my stock rom with note 2.... and i think the multiwindow is not just a gimmick..i use it far more than i use my s pen..i will probably change to a custon rom someday when i get bored with TW...my vore goes to TW for now :)
[Galaxy Note II General] pouetmimi:
I have an old Galaxy S to test CM10.1

For my Note 2, i do not feel the need to have the latest jelly bean, touchwiz is really good and I don't want to loose some features.

AOSP is for playing, I need a stable and battery friendly ROM, wich samy's are.
[Galaxy Note II General] Pat.:
Apex
[Galaxy Note II General] jonatton:
That's not 'full functionality'. Handwriting recognition, SNote etc are made exclusively to work well with S-Pen, no apps would function anywhere near as good as they will. And that sucks because I love AOSP/AOKP/PA.

Does any ROMs have airview BTW?
[Galaxy Note II General] Nekronoctis:
Sammy features nice, pure android prettier

I like most of the nice sammy features but i hate the look and feel of touchwiz, it's ugly and sometimes not very smooth... it would be nice when sammy decides to use the stock and pure android look and put there own features inside it (S Planner, S Note, Camera, etc)...
[Galaxy Note II General] darwinwin:
I use Apex launcher on stock rom...I think it's the best combination

I have tablet mode enabled (looks great on this huge screen) , 5x6 drawer and home screen plus the amazing gestures. .. swipe up to open the drawer. down for notifications And double tap to open recent apps

plus all touchwizz features are there (multuwindow spen toggles. ..)
[Galaxy Note II General] hannsz:
I'd rather use Papyrus over SNote any day, even on a TW ROM. SNote is slow. I don't know why all the other TW apps are lightning fast but the main feature of the SPen is so damn slow.

Full functionality of the S-Pen is full support for its hardware. Obviously apps with airview and special Touchwiz only features are going to be missing, but you can use the S-Pen to it's full potential in any other apps. I still use the pen for writing because my keyboard has excellent recognition!

I do like Touchwiz, but I wish it followed the design of Android and added all of the niceties on top. Samsung has some impressive software changes that AOSPA/AOKP/PA don't support, but the UI is fugly.
[Galaxy Note II General] RambJoe:
What keyboard do you use?

Thanks.

Btw some AOSP users might like this app. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2005018 It's available in the Samsung store I think but you can get it from there for AOSP ROMs. It has handwriting recognition, so when you write words it changes them to text.
[Galaxy Note II General] hannsz:
I use the Google Pinyin IME for handwriting Chinese. I can type faster on Swiftkey than anyone could possibly handwrite, so I just type English.

I'm actually surprised someone would write English with the pen on a phone.
[Galaxy Note II General] fratermus:
The smart stay (keep screen on as long as you are looking at it) is one of my favorite features. It allows me to use short timeouts to save batt AND keep the screen on automagically when needed.

I've used either vanilla android or CM on all my android phones so far but the stock Note 2 ROM is fine with me. I run Nova launcher with animations turned off. I don't use the S-Pen apps and according to BBB the Wizz stuff isn't negatively affecting batt life.

I am a very happy camper.

I have voted in favor of TW but lot of people who dislike it would definitely have changed their minds had it been free of bloatware and lighter.
[Galaxy Note II General] Kremata:
I think a lot of the TW resentments come from the Gingerbread and ICS area. Since JB I feel TW as improved a lot and keeps getting better. I used to be a hardcore AOSP lover but now I found some TW features not only cool but actually useful. I use Nova pro on top as I just love the gestures features and it's so fast. I still prefer the look of AOSP but this is easy to change.

I don't understand why people are complaining so much about CM. Considering the fact that it's just been a few months since CM arrived on the Note 2, it is incredibly stable. The only thing that's not working right now on CM for the Note 2 is that the camera doesn't work with the flash. And as for battery life, I get the same number of hours as i did from TW, sometimes even more - all the while running stock kernel, and not touching the governor settings. The devs are doing a great job so far, and I hope they continue on, even with the next version.
[Galaxy Note II General] grk007:
I think Tw is fast and stable launcher...I came from Htc mobile..where I experienced till sense 4+..then rooted and used CM for long time..ill say the latest TW of jellybean is as fast as Cm stock launcher...and sense is so heavy comparing to Tw..so its all depends on users taste to switch launchers accordingly wen they got bored with the current one...ill stick to stock..feels best for me..:thumbup:

[Galaxy Note II General] ixijimixi:
I dunno if they're really complaining so much about CM. For the most part, they're just talking about how it's less stable, which is a fair point. Personally, I prefer CM-based ROMs because of how easy it is to swap themes, without having to reboot. I don't think I'm missing an awful lot with Multiwindow, and I doubt the handwriting recognition would work with my handwriting, even if I tried it. I do wish they could put the ripple/ink lockscreen on there, but ya can't have it all.

My wife's phone doesn't have many problems with stability, and she's running the same ROM I am. Mine has to reboot once in a while, but I'm also overclocking it and playing with all of the settings, so I expect as much.

I guess the OP should have put a third option on his poll.
[Galaxy Note II General] B3311:
I was referring to aviralsingh16, not you. He edited his Black Market Alpha reference for how to get Apex Launcher Premium for free very quickly after my first post in this thread. I hadn't even seen your name before I replied, so I thought you were him. A mistake, apologies.

Aviralsingh16 had recommended Blackmarket Alpha - in capitals, no less. Hence I have no problem in calling him an idiot. Rude? As far as I'm concerned, that was justified.

Ugly: Plenty of touchwiz based ROMs around that looks really cool. Or just use Nova Launcher. Simple as.

Not customizable: Not sure what you mean by this - customization as in?

Get rid of the bloatware with Titanium and you have much better experience in TouchWiz than with AOSP on Note II. A whole load of features get lost when you switch over to any non TW based ROM making it "just another phone".

[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] if4ct0r:
I love the Holo Light with Dark Actionbar theme. I have been working to make a vrtheme for it, but being amateur in themeing its taking me considerable more time and effort to make it work having to use the hit-and-trial method for everything and its becoming kind-of frustrating. So, even though I'll continue working on my own version of it, I'd like to put the idea out there so that maybe someone with experience can make it for us if he likes the idea as well.

What I'm thinking of is an even Holo Light theme throughout the ROM :

White background & black text for most apps(Phone, Messaging and the likes) and Settings. (I guess you could call it "inverted" but with holo colors thrown in.)

Dark grey & slightly beveled status bar. (Or White status bar with dark grey icons, but would mess up most app notifications since they are in white.)

White background in expanded notifications statusbar with Dark Gray toggles and Dark Grey and Holo blue for notifications.

Minimalistic Black/Grey Icons (like the ones provided for notifications by default in the Android resources) for Phone, Messaging, etc.

For cues and inspiration on the colors and feel, the Light theme on Falcon Pro and GMail's default Light/High Contrast Theme are good to try to take ideas from.

Meanwhile I'll continue working on my own version and I'll post it here as soon as I make a decent beta version. :)

I'm pretty sure its not been asked for or done here. But if I didn't search properly please point me in the right direction. :)
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] je55ter:
I want to be able to temporarily set my Nexus 10 to render the desktop at 16:9 instead of 16:10 so that when I hook it up to a 16:9 tv via hdmi, it doesn't need to scale the image down and add black bars on the sides. Is there any way to do this? Perhaps an option on a custom rom?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] espionage724:
On a CM 10.1 thread, a recognized developer posted some modified files to get 1280x800 resolution or something like that. Not exactly 16:9, but perhaps a similar method could be made to get such a resolution.

I don't know what thread in-particular exactly :/
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EniGmA1987:
Aspect ratio has nothing to do with your TV either processing or not processing the image. Unless you are outputting the exact resolution your TV uses then it will always run the input through its scaler. And even if you do run the exact resolution, you still have the other processing the TV does, and very few models of TV's allow you to completely disable this extra processing. You may be able to get rid of most or all of the black bars simply by running a 16:9 aspect ratio, but unless you also run the exact resolution then you will still have processing done by the scaler on your TV.
