Re: DashClock Sleep Extension for CM 10.1

Awesome idea but a hassle for me since I have to enter my pattern before it sleeps. :(

Re: DashClock Sleep Extension for CM 10.1

Anyone try this on any other rom I know it says cm10.1 but it's a good idea

Re: DashClock Sleep Extension for CM 10.1

Where did you get the nest dashclock extension?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Ah, didn't think about that, as I don't use a pattern lock.

This is a limitation of how DashClock extensions work. Since the original "intent" (no pun intended) is to click an extension, for which DashClock unlocks the screen and it takes you to the particular app (email, weather, etc), all you can pass to the DashClock API in an intent to launch a particular app, activity, etc.

I'm assuming the same happens for you when clicking any other DashClock extension when having a pattern / pin unlock in place?

I can't put the phone directly to sleep as a result, but rather, have to instruct DashClock to launch an intent (which then unlocks the screen), and the intent issues the goToSleep method. Unfortunately, I don't think there is a way around it, given DashClock's primary purpose for extensions.

Re: DashClock Sleep Extension for CM 10.1

I'm on aospa and it works perfectly
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Interesting.

I wanted to hedge my bets and play it safe by assuming only CM. Thanks for the confirmation. I'm guessing in light of this, that perhaps any non-stock ROM (AOSP based) ROM that shares similar keys may work.

If you attempt to install, and you simply don't see the extension listed in DashClock, or it force closes when clicking, this is most likely a result of lack of permissions to execute.

If anyone tries running on any other ROMs, please report back, and I'll update the OP.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
I made it :laugh:

For some reason, Nest continues to keep their API private, so that third parties can't easily interface with it, but I found some documentation out there where someone has reversed engineered much of the API calls.

Based on the documentation, I put together a little Nest DashClock extension to display various statuses as reported by my thermostat, which I think is pretty cool.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Rockwig:
Mind sharing? :D
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Wish I could. Given the API is private, I am using a PHP server the extension makes calls to, and the PHP server calls Nest, using my hard coded device ids, username, password, etc., which returns back to the phone some JSON formatted data to parse. So, right now, it's not "portable" in any way.

If I get a chance, I want to try and think of a way to make it more universal, but right now, it is very specific to my environment.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Rockwig:
Completely understandable.

Thanks!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
If anyone running AOKP and has tried this can let me know if it works, I'd like to compile a running list of known working ROMs.

Thanks!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Bunjii:
JsChiSurf, How did you make your dashclock look that AWSOME Jellybean style?

- there is no line under the clock so the extensions becomes right under it.

- the clock is in the middle and not aligned to the left side.

You have to explain me how youve done that!

Thank you!!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Ha, funny thing is, the removed line is a by-product of the mod I did here for conditionally removing the clock when installing DashClock on the homescreen. Since it doesn't make sense to have the line when the clock is gone, I just removed the line all together.

The clock being centered is just an option in the 'Advanced' settings for DashClock directly.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Bunjii:
So what should i do to remove the line? ( No contact for the extension you made in this threade) , do i have to still download your mod?

Thanks so much!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] scottx .:
Very nice. You should upload it to the play store. You'll get a million downloads.

I wish I didn't have to swipe it to unlock it when the clock is minimized.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Unfortunately, since this has to be a system app, it's not something that can be put on the play store.

Unfortunately, I can't override the behavior of DashClock itself, and since this is what it does for all extensions, I don't have the ability to do anything different for the sleep extension (though I wish I could).

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pharmnatr:
Hi All

I decided to flash meanbean 1.03. Everything flashed ok and restored with titanium backup. I didnt reboot after titanium restore and everything was working fine. I rebooted and got a bootloop.

How can I find out what caused the bootloop?

TIA

Al
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheodorK11:
Idk how you could find what went wrong but it probably has top do with Titanium resorting some sort of system data from a different room ROM that conflicts with mean bean. Do you do a "Restore all Apps and system data" in Titanium?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pharmnatr:
I restored all apps with data. I think that caused the problem. I recreated my starting point then restored missing apps with data and that solved the problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
I bet the first time you restored system apps
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pharmnatr:
I normally wouldnt disagree with you but I know for sure I hit "restore all apps with data" and not "restore missing apps + all system data".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
Remember though all apps with data is every app you backed up including system apps. But either way you're good now!
[HTC Droid DNA] wesf90:
I just grabbed this phone from Verizon, since the dev community is small compared to my other 2 options (Razr HD Maxx and Galaxy S3), however, with this new pesky 2.04 OTA that came pre-installed on my DNA, it seems like the community is currently at a halt.

I have approx 10 more days to return my DNA and get a second choice (Razr or Galaxy), but the hardware is really holding me to the DNA. I don't care much for Sense, and I've always been a motorola fan, however I also love to dev and mess with my phones. So, how likely is this 2.04 unlock? Or should I just go ahead and switch phones? Both the S3 and Razr have great dev communities. S3 has 2gb ram while the Razr has 1gb ram BUT has that amazing battery.

What should I do? I'm so indecisive right now and it's killing me! :)
[HTC Droid DNA] CharliesTheMan:
I wouldn't buy a phone based on what might happen in the future. If nothing else, you could always sell it and buy one unlocked and s off.

The S3 is decent although old and I suspect dev support is on the downhill slope. I'm personally not a fan of the Razr. If it was my choice to make I'd keep the DNA or sell it and get one unlocked, or get a Note 2 to hold me over until Verizon gets the next HTC. The DNA 2 or One Variant.
[HTC Droid DNA] XSWG:
why not take it back to the store and swap it out instead? Just don't let the store reps update your software. I never let them do anything more then activate my sim card
[HTC Droid DNA] keith843:
Guess its a good thing the woman that sold me mine was not familiar with smartphones, I had to show her how to take out the SIM tray. I declined the update so I could familiarize myself to sense coming from the razr maxx
[HTC Droid DNA] wesf90:
You think the phone was updated and didn't just come already preloaded with the new software? I don't remember having to sit through any update, she simply opened it, popped in the sim card, and had me log into my gmail. If that's the case, then I might try that route.
[HTC Droid DNA] rndchef:
I came from the Maxx and think the DNA is so much more of a phone that I live we the battery size. I got to say that there is something innate to flashaholics that we must have the latest version and once we have it, we want to newest version. In the end, they all still do the same damn thing. We risk bricking, endless hours of trying to fix something we may have screwed up in flashing variants and trying every rom out there and trying again and again. The DNA is a great phone as is. You will always want the next phone regardless so make a decision based on the phone in your hand not what it may be like once you get rooted and start the insanity again of trying to make it better. You can deactivate bloat, hid things in app drawer, it is still blazing fast, a portable battery hub solves the battery issue better than having to plug in everywhere, the Qi pad is sweet, still fits in jean pockets and it has a beautiful screen.
[HTC Droid DNA] wesf90:
Why do you have to point out the amazingness of this phone and make my decision even harder!? :D I do agree with you though. The DNA has amazing more-than-currently-needed hardware, and that's really what's making my decision so hard. I have faith in the unlock, and plenty of patience, but it's hard being a developer and not being able to dev. I hate being restricted. I'm almost to the point of getting the Note II, but the phablet size is keeping me away for now.

Thanks for the input!
[HTC Droid DNA] cc16177:
I would say the DNA is definitely worth it even without root/unlock.
[HTC Droid DNA] Jaggar345:
Before the update came out I didn't root or unlock because I think phone is amazing on a stock rom. HTC really did a nice job. Although once it stops getting otas I will unlock root and put a custom rom and kernel but until then I'm just staying on stock. I don't see anything wrong with it. And if I get the urge to flash something I just flash my n7.
[HTC Droid DNA] cc16177:
I am rooted and unlocked but the main reason I did it was to remap to recents button to long press menu just go get rid of the black menu bar.

Other than that I was very happy with stock.
[HTC Droid DNA] broons:
My DNA is still locked and unrooted and honestly it doesn't bother me too much. It is pretty awesome as is. Sure it has some annoyances but what phone doesn't?
[HTC Droid DNA] wesf90:
Absolutely, it's a very smooth phone. And like broons said, there are small things that bug me. I would like to root for tasker, hotspot/tether, custom notifications bar (i really dislike the sense skinned not bar), power on with volume, remve gps icon, and remove the bloat completely. Those are what I would do instantly, with only root. But of course, the main reason would be to flash roms and take a crack at the source myself :)

Is there currently a team actively working on the 2.04 unlock?
[HTC Droid DNA] 123421342:
Guys If you want an exploit email and twitter at HTC and HTCDEV to release the 2.04 kernel source which they are LEGALLY required to do and have no done so yet. There is seriously a likely exploit there.
[HTC Droid DNA] atishpatel2012:
I'd stick with the DNA...cm 10.1 is almost done and if devs can't figure out a root method...which i think they will...you can send it off to get s-off for like $40...its not impossible to get s-off
[HTC Droid DNA] kaliblazin707:
Current team says it is not likely. Kernel source may help.
[HTC Droid DNA] ickedmel:
^ Truth.
[HTC Droid DNA] nuprotocol:
The first thing I do is ROOT when I get a phone. However I can't on the DNA b/c I'm also on 2.04. I'm actually with AT&T using the DNA. I don't have LTE, and MMS only works using GoSMS which I don't really care for. Even with the MMS issue, no LTE, and no ROOT, this phone is still worth it. If I was an actual VZW subscriber, this would be the phone to have for sure.

I want ROOT to remove the horrid software install popups when connecting by usb and to wifi tether. Other than that, the stock rom is pretty smooth. The hardware is just too BEAST to pass up. I'm coming from the OneX which was a great phone as well, but the DNA runs circles around the OneX.
[HTC Droid DNA] rsims26:
I have had numerous Moto phones and the Razr Maxx HD was a big disappointment for me; and I tried hard to love that thing. 32 GB of memory and a battery like no other, but they skimped out by only including 1 GB of RAM which gave me redraw after redraw. It reminded me of my old Charge. The DNA is by far the best stock Android phone I've ever had (15 and counting). If you don't like Sense, then just throw Nova or something similar on top. I would never own a Samsung phone again, but if you're okay with the plastic, crappy feel, the S3 probably has the easiest phone to root and the most custom ROM's.
[HTC Droid DNA] 123421342:
If you guys want any hope of an exploit, Twitter and email HTC and htcdev to release the kernel source! They are violating the gpl by not doing that.
[HTC Droid DNA] orateam:
Had the Razr as well and loved it but the 1gb of RAM was the problem. Had they put 2gb in the HD's, right now, they would be owning market.

The DNA is amazing even unrooted. Power toggles and Nova make this phone completely unique and i haven't even played with ADW and other launchers. Just crazy fast and lightning quick.

More than likely Verizon is the kernel source hold up. The only time there is a hold up with source from HTC it is Verizon phones.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] craby1925:
Okay so I am sharing my experience for everyone. I had recently broken my screen, and I needed to replace the screen. I bought a screen digitizer off of eBay, and....Destroyed the phone sub frame. The reason I am posting is because I am warning all of you, you need to buy a full display assembly online. This includes the whole new display( glass and LCD) wires and bits, and a full subframe. Unless you are superior to an Asian 12 year old working in the factory that made your phone (hint hint, wink wink, you're not) than you need to buy a full assembly, or end up like me an destroy your phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] hiyo3:
+1.

Unfortunately, I saw this post after doing damage to my phone. The plastic housing that the digitizer /lcd sits in is verrrryyy easy to damage around the edges when you try to separate the screen. Heating it with the heat gun to get the separation actually makes it even more fragile and prone to damage. Thankfully I was able to return digitizer/lcd and get full setup from here :

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] leebo:
Wow, that includes the plastic frame? I replaced my screen a couple of weeks ago (glass and LCD), and the edges of the frame did get slightly chewed up. It's not too bad, but I wish I had known abut this item.

On a positive note, I suppose I can get a job in China when the economy completely collapses.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mjhuffer:
Ya my screen got waterlogged after I got trashed and left it out in the rain. Let everything dry out and thankfully all the boards and connectors work. I ended up going the cheap route and just buying a screen and not the frame. I almost successfully got the thing apart. I do have a small chip in the frame on the left side but my case covers that. I only paid around $50 but I did give myself around $50 in headaches. Definitely spend the extra $50 and just get the whole package.

If you do decide to try and separate the screen from the frame, use a lot of heat. Not necessarily high heat, but for a good duration. Get the adhesive nice and warm. Then pry it loose through one of the holes in the housing/frame (go at it from the back) and slowly work it away from the frame. Once you get it off, heat the adhesive back up and then add some 5 minute quick epoxy to the black adhesive pads in the frame. Then use some clamps and let the epoxy cure. There is a great video I followed below. It took me a while and I will probably ride with this for a minute until it bothers the hell out of me. My gf said she can't even notice.

Okay so i have this really old phone (Samsung Captivate) with a really awesoem clock app. But its a system app and i want to install it on one of my other phones (Galaxy Nexus) as a user app.

They both are NOT running stock ROM. In fact the Cappy is on 4.2.1 and the Nexus on 4.2.2.

Not a big differnece, right? So i presume this would be possible.

Before you ask, i did do research on this and found nothing but moving one user app from one phone to another phone as a user app, etc. Nothing with moving a system app from one phone to user app on another.

If you want i can upload the apk file for you guys/gals to see. Just ask. (My phone is dead at the moment)
