So I have a hypothetical question for you devs out there. If I unlock a Verizon phone, and I decide to use it with another carrier, will my mms and imessage still work?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nubreed000:
Everything was fine until Tasker switched profiles to Night Mode, which was set to vibrate. Afterwards I decided to adjust that profile and now I can't get anything to vibrate. There's no haptic feedback when I type or when I tap and hold an app to uninstall it. Any ideas on what the problem is?

edit: oh and I went into Settings -> Sound to make sure the vibrate options are checked off there, and then into my keyboard options to make sure they're checked off there too.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Thenewguy1:
Um I can't get Tasker to show me the tutorial pop up any more. But I remember it read something like when Tasker sets your phone to vibrate that your phone cannot disable it. Try creating another task to enable volume.

Do you have a profile set up to set it to day mode? If so try adding a task to enable sound.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dimasp6:
Anyway to disable it from being displayed in the notification bar but still activate at the desired percentage?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] chrisphoenix7:
Yes. The box at the far right of the bar can get it off the bar, then go into settings and specify the percentage.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dimasp6:
Not from the quick toggles but in the actual notification tray is what I meant.

ES file explorer

- Has enhanced root functions (awesome for writing and rewriting files in root)

- Has a file editor

- Very easy to use!

- Easy, fast and clean interface
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Hung0702:
Total Commander

Has some root functionality (some actions aren't supported, but copy/paste is).

Has 2 panes more easy management of files between two or more locations. Default, you see only one at a time, but can Swype left and right to alternate views between two different folders.

As a file explorer, it's great. Ftp support, power user-style navigation, and a few customization options.

Total Commander has been around as a file explorer since Win95 and is very mature.

In my pic, you can see me easily copying 4 files from one folder to another. You tap on the file icons to select files for action, and tap on the file name if you only want to open a file. Tap and holds for options and actions. Alternatively, you can spend a little time learning the shortcut buttons at the bottom and you can copy/move/delete files very quickly.

I still use Root Explorer for some/data/ or /system/app/ interactions, such as changing permissions or modifying multiple system files stored as plain-text.

I have been using ES all this while with absolutely no problem, stellar performance is under statement.

Recently bought a Nexus 4 and I encounter a peculiar problem, music files transferred from LAN wouldn't show up in my library(force rescan won't help either), only USB cable works.

That set me on a quest for the best file manager(one tat will solve my problem), ES, FileExpert, AntTek same problem, Root explorer no LAN support, Astro woks but it wouldn't connect(sign-in issue) to my Popcornhour media player.

Finally landed on a gem, X-plore works flawlessly and even opens .htm file on the LAN, downside is lack of SFTP support, UI is 2 panes style, makes file transfer really easy.

This thread goes to show that there are a lot of really good options out there.

Yep. Most if not all original android ROMs like carbon are full of bugs that are no big deal for people who should have bought regular phones. Bluetooth issues, s-pen issues, etc. For those of us who use the device as a productivity enhancer, these bugs are deal breakers.

I use my phone and take advantage of all the meaningful features. I just do not enjoy being spoon fed a bloated OS from carriers selling phones to people who need to pull out a pen to swipe something I can swipe with my finger faster and more accurate.

As to productivity I can VPN into a work network and administer an exchange server with my phone.

Now take a look through this forum and count the posts by stock users about the 4.1.2 update. Go figure... 2 versions back and the update is buggy LOL

Carbon Nightly | Kroz Hue Theme | Crack Flasher
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] lavin40:
I know what you mean lol but right now I'm running liquidsmooth rom and it's running very good and is very stable I like it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdt73:
For me, two deal breakers were the broken bluetooth issues and the s-pen functionality. I, too, hate the bloat, but that was pretty easy to freeze or uninstall myself, so I didn't really count that. While driving, I like the ability of my car to read text messages to me, and send replies via the hands free system. This works fine on any TW based ROM, but is horribly broken in every original ROM. (I think it's a ticket'able offense on any military installation in the US to text, let alone touch a phone, while driving)

Turning the s-pen into a normal stylus was the second deal breaker. I simply use the s-pen way too much, along with a few of the TW apps, to let that one go. And I don't mean typing, I mean taking notes, producing memos and providing documents when the boss says go. You might think of the s-pen as a stylus, in the end, you bought the phone for the screen, but there's so much more to it. Now that I think of it, any Android 4.1 phone could do what you need it to do. Jedi 12 seems to have the most functioning TW features I need, while carbon looked neat but provided little to no benefit.

Lavin, in the end, you just need to find a happy medium between what you need and what you can live without. Paranoid Android with the Franco Kernel is just about at perfection for me on my Nexus 7, but fails horribly on my Note II. As much as I hated Jedi months ago, it's come a long way, along with a lot of TW based ROMs. This is probably one instance where I think Samsung hamstrung dev's with their fancy schmancy TW based stuff, so I am willing to live with a TW based ROM and Saber Kernel that works great, has fantastic battery life, and runs all the features I bought the phone for... even if it doesn't look at pretty as carbon, PA, or CM10.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
The hardware drivers do not match cause the Samsung drivers are closed source. It won't change how its played on whatever you try to play the video on, it'll be low. I've read from another user that applying faux kernel and such will change this. I can't comment on it though.

Hey developers

I have a Micromax A25 (MT6575 chipset). There are many a methods all over the internet that I found for rooting this little fella but I couldn't. I have all the necessary drivers installed but I can't flash any image or read back anything. Each time SP Flash Tool shows the BROM error (if I keep the DA download enabled) or the "Partition size changed" error (if I disable the DA download).

I have made a scatter file of my own using MTK Droid Tools. One thing I noticed that the scatter files found over the internet doesn't match my own one. Moreover, the firmware version of my phone is A25_0201_V0409, which is not provided in Micromax FTP server. I guess my phone (like many of yours) is a bit different or new than the ones which are rooted.

Can anyone give me a solution?

Hey guys, I've been having a weird issue for the past week now. On Mean Bean 3.09 every phone call I take or make ends up rebooting, usually within a minute of the call going through. Now, I also noticed that my proximity sensor now longer works and the screen remains ON during the calls no matter how close my face is to the sensor/screen (I am not a ghost).

I have tried completely wiping to factory multiple times, and flashing different roms, including basic rooted stock roms. All now have this same issue where my proximity sensor does nothing (screen stays on unless I hit power button during call) and it reboots the phone during all my phone calls. Anyone have any idea what's going on, and suggestions on how to fix? Thanks!
