Hi,

I am triying to build a simple numeric clock widget but i have some issues :

-The widget isn't appearing in widget section of 4.0+ launchers

-The time is not refresh (but i set up refresh value to 1000ms)

-Widget dosn't respect the size i set in the xml

android:minWidth="294dp"
android:minHeight="72dp"
android:updatePeriodMillis="1000"

If someone can help me, would be awesome :D

See app sources here

I'm sorry if i am in the wrong place :)
[Java for Android App Development] ciao99:
you should add this in the manifest:

<receiver android:name=".WidgetProvider" android:label="yourAppName">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_UPDATE" />
</intent-filter>
<meta-data android:name="android.appwidget.provider" android:resource="@xml/widget_info" />
</receiver>

then create the meta-data file (widget_info):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<appwidget-provider xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:minWidth="294dp"
android:minHeight="72dp"
android:updatePeriodMillis="1000"
android:initialLayout="@layout/widget">
</appwidget-provider>

ok, you did it... i didn't view the source :D

[Java for Android App Development] nikwen:
I think that the update intervall needs to be 30 minutes or more.

You could create a service and refresh the widget from that.

---------- Post added at 12:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:03 PM ----------

And you need to start your app at least once on Android 4+. Then it will be shown in the app drawer.

So create a launcher activity.

Guys, I've been looking around and cant seem to find a theme that follows the standard stock android (im using 4.2.2, cm10.1) that is bright or at least lighter. I'm coming from an iphone where the entire UI is bright. I'd like the option to have a brighter UI, for example in the notification drawer when i pull it down, its all black, the settings menu is all black, etc.

Anyone have any tips or suggestions?!!

Thanks!

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juniper:
Evening/afternoon/morning depending on where you are.

I managed to successfully unlock the boot loader and then root my Nexus 7 using the Wugfresh Nexus toolkit and installed the latest TWRP recovery. All was going great, I decided to flash a ROM, it went well but never booted into it. I went back into recovery and stupidly deleted/wiped more than I should and long story short I have a tablet with no OS and the SD card has been wiped so I cannot flash the rom.

I have been for the past several hours trying to get the device to appear as mass storage so I could push out the rom but I am not able to that. I can see the nexus 7 appearing as a Android device in Windows Device Manager with the driver exclamation mark. I have tried to install the driver for it from the SDK folder and also downloaded the drivers from ASUS (both are the same?) but the Driver Wizard keeps saying the driver cannot be found.

I can still get into bootloader and recovery, when I do go into TWRP recovery, I go to mount option and see the USB-OTG option but I cannot check the box next to. I'm thinking I will need to get a appropriate cable and get the rom onto the device that way but will have to wait for morning when the shops are open.

I still have hope as I do have the recovery image but need the advice of the learned people of this forum to help. I am using Windows 8 in case it makes any difference, can use win 7 if anyone thinks that will make a difference? When its in bootloader the tablet then appears as a Android Phone in Device manager.

Thanks in advance to suggestions, please leave all cutting remarks at the door :)

Update: When I am in recovery mode on my Windows 7 machine, the tablet appears under the Android Phone section. Not sure if it helps but thought I would add that.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mustbepbs:
Can you get the device to show up in ADB? If so you can push the ROM through ADB.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juniper:
Dude you were spot on, the nexus had ran out of juice so I had to painfully charge it to at least 10% before I could try it. Just to clarify, I got the device into recovery mode, in Device Manager it was appearing under Android Phone as ADB integ Port (something to that effect) and then pushed out the rom to the SDCARD using the ADB push command. Managed to install the SmoothRom and its loaded fully :)

My windows 8 laptop must not have a driver or something not compatible as opposed to my windows 7 PC. Although on the Win 8 laptop, when the device in Fastboot it does appear under Android Phone but when the device gets to recovery, it moves to the Unknown device. Anyway my ordeal is over and it has been nervy!

Hope this helps someone?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] vmx128:
Hi,

Does anyone know how to set the status bar to transparent with the rooted stock rom? The only way to get a transparent status bar at the moment is by using one of the samsung wallpapers with touchwiz launcher. Setting your own wallpaper breaks the transparency in both touchwiz and Nova launcher.

There is a mod floating around in the GSM S4 forums, but I'm not sure if it will work for our phones.

Thanks!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Toleraen:
Coming from an S2, so I'm not sure what purpose jigs had for the S3. By habit I popped one into my S4 earlier, and it booted up into download mode. The only difference I noticed was instead of saying "Odin Mode" at the top, it said "Factory Mode".

Is there a difference between the two modes? Any reason to use/not to use a jig to get into download mode on this device?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] KillaHurtz:
It's the same thing. The only thing a JIG is for is if you have trouble getting into download mode manually or want to skip the warning screen when you enter manually.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Toleraen:
That's what I thought, thanks! On the S2 it was also used to reset the odin counter and such...I haven't seen a counter in download mode so I assume that was taken out.

I beleive it now says "UNOFFICIAL" on the Phone info screen when you root.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bz786:
HI guys,

So basically I have a locked boat loader Xperia U. The phone is rooted and a custom ROM named 'Kings' ROM (available from the development section) is installed.

This ROM however is quite terrible so I wish to change it. I have CWM Touch recovery installed and I have the new ROM I want to install (JB Experience). However, when I go into the cwm recovery and choose the zip to flash it says

" Starting AROMA installer" and then the screen goes black and randomly vibrates every now and then... what I think is happening is that I can't see the installer menu but its there if you get what i'm saying.

It doesn't work with any ROM and i'm kinda stuck using the crappy ROM... anyone have any suggestions?

The best way to stop this thread getting messy is probably just a systematic review of both ROM's and make a few major sections (features, smoothness, etc) and then say which one has more or is better.

OFC that would require constant updating :P

Best thing is to try one, if you still want to try the other then most likely the current ROM isn't what your looking for.

Having had a major panick when my XDA lost all power, and losing all info, (as I thought I had done a backup but then couldnt find it!!!) I have now manually put all the info back on. So this time I have made sure I have done a backup on my PC which seems ok, but I wanted to do a backup onto my SD card also, so that if this major incident happens again where I have to hard reset my device, I will be able to restore my info whilst away from my PC. (still with me???)

Anyway, I have done a backup using Xbackup, onto my SD card, everything ok there then!!! but when I try to restore using Xbackup it doesnt give me the option to open my storage card, and the file I saved isnt recognized by my XDA???

Am I doing something wrong??

I have SpriteClone and it takes Approx 1 1/2mins to backup my XDA1 aprox. 18mb and a full backup (incl. SD approx 200mb) takes approx. 25 mins.

The problem with SpriteClone is that its a minimum of 10 copies @$10/per purchased (geared mainly for companies). An idea would be if a few users got together and purchased it together (or everyone who wants it start emailing Sprite to give them the idea to sell personal copies.
