[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] skinnyp19:
Anybody know how I can get the Swipe up action? for example to bring up recent apps or currently running apps. I used nova to do this however I'm not a fan of this launcher overall, I had an iphone 5 with the zephyr tweak and I want something similar to this. Please let me know
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] bri315317:
You will need a non stock launcher for that. TW does not support this and I have never seen one modded to do this either.

It is what it is...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] plwalsh88:
You mean long-pressing the home button? Or you want a swipe up gesture to do that? Because as far as I know that's not possible. You'd need Nova or the like to do so.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] QuickSkope:
Get Nova Launcher Prime. It supports a bunch of gestures and its wicked fast.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] skinnyp19:
Yup exactly I want a Swipe gesture to replace the long press home button.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Shammyh:
You'll need a different launcher. Luckily, the Android eco-system contains many different options.

Personally I prefer Apex Launcher but people also seem to like Nova Launcher quite a bit too. I set the swipe down to open my app drawer and the swipe up to directly launch Google's voice search, but the combinations/options are really endless.

Try both, or others and see what you like.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] TBayTom:
Try swipepad free from the play store, it is the best swipe launcher you can use with ANY launcher. You can set up your favorite apps or recent apps. It works so smooth.

I experienced strange thing on my phone.

Before flash

I replaced touchwiz without backup. And I got fc, so I did factory reset, trying to open root explorer, and download another tw from internet. All methods were failed, so I decided to flash stock firmware. I found one European firmware, Korean firmware, and Chinese 2.2.

During Flashing

I flashed European firmware first. When ODIN shows "PASS", it looked working well. But One thing I found is, I couldn't connect to network. I searched network manually, I found Telus, Rogers, and Bell. I used Telus, so i clicked it and it Showed "Cannot connect to this network(I cannot remember now)"

When I found Korean Firmware(M240S), I flashed because I believed another firmware gonna fix it.

But After flashing, problem got more worse. I saw red letter on wallpaper(I call it RLOD, "Red Letter Of Death", something like BSOD)what shows on wallpaper if IMEI is corrupted. And lock screen disappeared.

So I searched for another firmware, and I found Chinese 2.2. So I flashed it. That firmware didn't fixed my phone.

After Flash

I got replaced, but I am now curious about relationship between firmware flashing and IMEI corruption.

can some one tell me how to!!!!

get my xda to work my orange sim card, ie work like it would if it was in an spv m1000?? (i have had it unlocked!!) i have read that i could flash it to the m1000 sofware ETC

can i change the back ground picture from the O2 bubbles to 1 of my own!

where do i put the programs i have on the disc that i got with the fone (i brought it of e bay!!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] palmtest:
Hello there gtivinny,

Welcome to this forum.

It is filled with good Hints&Tips Tweaks&Tunings for the XDA

On this site, there are tools to unlock your XDA.

Go to the home page of this site.

Look on the right under Misc and find "Removing SIMLock".

And furtermore Read The Fabulous Manual (RTFM) or this forum.

It is possible to change the background picture.

a) Choose another Today Theme to change your backgroud picture of the Today screen.

b) Read your current ROM to a File. Replace Bootscreen image. Make a new ROM image and install this new ROM.

I always put (install) the programs on the Storage Card.

And I put all the downloads on a CD and all the CD's in a single case.

If something is not clear please ask.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] gtivinny:
thanks palmtest!

i have managed to changed the background picture, but its not a ture clear picture! (misty) is there a way i can make it clear!

as for the sim lock i have done that!!

i need to know if i can make it work in the same way with my orange sim like in my old p900!

i read a post further down on the section about flashing the spv m1000 onto the xda!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Rudegar:
i asume you are using a picture you took with the cam

well you can take another picture and keep taking them untill you get one which is clear enough for you

or you could copy the picture to your pc and mess around with a photo editor and clear it up a bit

not really sure what you are saying here if yo mean if you can unlock your p900 then no

if you mean if you can use more then one sim in the xda then yes (but people seem to get hardresets from changing the sim :( )
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] palmtest:
Another way is to rescale your favorite picture to 240x320pixels. IrfanView can do this for you.

Copy this picture to your XDA and save it as a jpg in the directory "\My Documents".

On your XDA: tap start, tap settings, tap today.

Select "Use this picture as the background" and browse to a picture you have placed in "My Documents".

you can also have a look at:

Have fun and good luck.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] gtivinny:
if i put my orange sim in my xda it works to make fone calls and recive sms,

but it wont recive mms!!

so i was thinking if i change it to the orange software (m1000) i would be able, and easier to set it up to work like my p900,

ie internet, e mail/pop etc!! and so on!

now on to the pictures, my picture i have loaded on the fone and set it to

come on my screen is blured, but if i veiw it in image veiwer its cyrstal clear! like it has a misty film over the top

i told you i was stupid, lol
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Rudegar:
you can set it up to supporting gprs and mms and such without changing rom all you have to do is to type in all the settings for those

like accesspoint and login and password and such

you can find all those settings and guides to how in the networking it forum on this site

just use search

Ok, i have the rogers SGH i317m, so for the past month my galaxy note 2 has been having quite a few problems;

I would have to take my microsim and battery out for 5 mins a day to get service, but now my phone has just kept rebooting. I have already tried using the phone without the microsim or the microsd, and it will keep rebooting every five minutes. I have flashed different radios, different roms, and now i have unrooted and am on stock rom, it still reboots every 5 minutes. Should I bring my phone back to rogers, is there anything else I can do?

This is not our Galaxy Note 2 SGH-T889 and SGH-T889V. So we would not know.

Have you tried to go back to Rogers 4.11 root66_RWC_I317MVLALJ2.7z first? Then go forward to Rogers 4.12 root66_RWC_I317MVLBMA3.7z? Root66 are injected rooted stock roms. Using Odin to install. Everything stock, just with root. Sometimes going backwards then go forwards from that point works. Use PDA in Odin to install.

You have gone into the recovery and clear the cache?

You do have the stock recovery installed?

I317 is ATT version. Have you tried with ATT Galaxy Note 2 forums?

I saw the modem at this thread. Sometimes having the wrong modem for us here can cause boot looping. In Odin use Phone to flash modem only.

Within your recovery, clear the cache. Sometimes this can fix the boot looping after flashing a rom.

if its not covered by warantee jus pop the phone open from the botttom with ur fingers and lift screen out there it a connecter on the top right of the phone just disconnect and reconnect that and double check all the ribbon cables or even keep pressed the cables and press power see if screen is back to normal. that should elimate if its the screen or the bored.

Donno if its the regular case of 'bad usb port'. It's happening only when I'm charging with specific car charger (1A, output 5V) sometimes its charging fine, sometimes I notice its stop charge and the icon of battery is blinking/flashing...

I've tried to clean the usb cable and port from dust, maybe the cable got some dust into it?

Also I've notice that the temperature of device goes down to 22°C when its happening...

At any other chargers (include othe car chargers and other wall chargers) there is no problem at all...

What could be the reason of this specific car charger (it used to work without any problem the last few months ago)?

High/Low voltage? Dust?

maybe other problem with my device? (Battery/something else)

BTW - when I plug the charger out when its happening its stop blinking.

Battery Icon Flashing with Samsung Galaxy S4 Car Charger

I had the same problem charging my Galaxy S4 in the car. AC charging works fine but when plugged into the DC car charger the battery indicator icon flashed rather than showing the lightning bolt.

I purchased a higher voltage DC charger adapter, same symptom.

Finally I swapped out the USB-to-micro cable and now it works fine. I suspect that in the car the phone gets jarred over time and it wears down the micro-USB connector.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
It's not just you fella........

The micro USB socket idea is (imo) a pathetically fragile arrangement for what the manufacturers intend it to do. I've repaired two phones with worn out sockets, and judging by what I am reading on XDA, it is an issue that is getting more and more common.........

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anirudh.88:
I have same problem with my nexus 4.

After some googling I came across an app called Ampere.

This app tells you how much rate of current your battery is charging at.

So what i found is that when phone gets old the battery doesnt hold up charge as before. So the charge rate becomes slow. The nexus charger is rated at 1Amp and at the time of charging is able to provide low current than the rate at which the battery is draining. So the Android gets confused between charging and discharging.

For eg: if phone is charging at 300mA and draining at 350mA.

Also the battery draining rate is constantly changing. So when its greater than charging rate phone shows discharging and if less : charging...

Fix: There are three fixes which i can think ...

1) Get a higher Amp rated charger...

2) while charging close most of apps , dont play games , switch to a lower gen network like 2g , close wifi , close data which will reduce the discharge rate of the battery.

3) Get a new battery.

I'm on CM10.0 stable currently because I don't quite like 10.1.

Lately, my battery has been lasting less and less. Better Battery Stats has nothing unusual from what I can see, no processes over 10 minutes wakelocks. The built-in battery monitor says that over 60% is the screen, the next highest is Android OS under 10%.

I'm thinking it was possibly Lux, which I have uninstalled. I've noticed that having Wifi turned on really drains my battery and the phone gets rather warm near the bottom. It used to do this when I had my SD card inserted (which I now know is a hardware failure) but I've since removed it.

Any input is appreciated, thanks.
