[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lmike6453:
It seems like it worked as intended except for when you pull down from the top, you have to pull down from the "tippy top". Try to swipe down from the top at different positions to see what i mean.

Launcher gestures to expand status bar will work and also in PIE i made a button to expand status bar and that's how I use it.

I'll make a revert as soon as I can for those that prefer to go back.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lmike6453:
Ok revert/uninstall MOD is up at end of 1st post.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] bsw11:
I have tried swiping multiple times, and places and I just can't get it to work. If you had a shortcut or widget to make it pull down that might be handy to just make sure its working period which I really have no way of knowing.

How do I make a button in PIE for it? I tried DMD for hide/show status bar and that did not work - that probably is the overall hide/show function and not the open function.

Update - I setup PIE (LMT) to open Notification Bar and it does not work. So the problem has to be that it is just not working for some reason. Anything I can do to debug it for you? Logcat? Let me know.

Update 2 - Looks like XP14 is going to arrive any second, so you will have to make sure this works on 14 for me to test further. Let me know.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lmike6453:
Sorry for the delayed response bud. I just updated it for XP14 and increased the "pull-down" area by almost double so it should pull down a lot better now.

Check out post 2 for how to add button to Expand Notifications in your PIE :good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] harley1rocker:
I dont even know how to use pie.... I got my note 2...rooted....flashed the force...aint turned back....I figured out on xp13...xp14? Still dont know...enlightenment?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] bkeaver:
Nice mod although I do wish it would have a way to toggle instead of having to flash the revert
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lmike6453:
Watch this

[youtube]0yz93GY7bOk[/youtube]
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Datblkbro:
I tried flashing both. The quick pin made my setting disappear and the other one wouldn't let my phone boot
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Datblkbro:
Anyone else having this problem. Btw im on xp14
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lmike6453:
I'm confused with your issue. Quick PIN Mod made what setting disappear? Phone can't boot where it hangs at what point?

These MODs should have nothing to do with your issue. Flashing the REVERTs at the end of post 1 will bring you back to square one easily. Let us know.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kilawayne:
Same here after flashing the quick pin I can no longer go into settings
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lmike6453:
Need more info...what ROM are you on(just making sure)? Does flashing the revert fix it? "Go into settings" means menu key - android settings? Does it force close or what exactly happens?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kilawayne:
Jedi latest
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Datblkbro:
Yea latest Jedi XP14. Ok this is wat happened. When I flashed the expanded desktop my phone stayed stuck in boot screen. When I flash the quick pin my setting was gone didnt have a settings icon r pull up settings with menu. Idk about the revert I used my backup.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lmike6453:
Interesting. I don't know how that could have happened from these MODs. Works for me and for others
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Datblkbro:
Maybe bad download. Idk ill retry

---------- Post added at 02:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:41 AM ----------

Just tried again and same issue. When I click on settings I get app not installed. and thru menu nothin happens

---------- Post added at 03:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:58 AM ----------

Ok I used the revert back and it did bring my settings back. Weird its not working really wanted this. I may try a fresh install of Jedi XP14 to test.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Datblkbro:
Fresh install of Jedi and still same issues. Ill read later on how to do it myself..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Datblkbro:
Who got this working on Jedi xp14???
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pbelcl:
Hello Folks!

my mdaII has extraordinary symtoms when i want to mark some text in notepad ore other text application!

instead of the black block (shows marked text) i get a extraordinary arrow symbol (see attached picture) and so i cant mark text any more.

this serious function does not stop till i make a softreset. after this everything works well.

has anybody an idea For what reason this arrow appears and how i can get rid of it??
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] hshortt:
Did you install TenGo?? I think that either TenGo or Fitaly produces this and I've no idea how to stop it. I also have this occasionally.

Cheerio

Howard
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pbelcl:
No what is this?

Maybe we can find out which software we have both ?

i use:

ZenPhone

Repligo

TotalCommander

Visual CE

Code Wallet Pro

Spritge Backup

ScreenCap
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pbelcl:
if nobody knows an answer i have to hardreset my device because this problem is very distempering...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] hshortt:
hmmm... from your list I have Zen Phone and Sprite backup. I recently upgraded both applications too.

Hmmm.... what to do, I thought it was TenGo and I removed it, but the problem is still there. I was then thinking that this could be Fitaly but you don't have fitaly so it can't be that.

I've found that when this problem happens if I switch input modes to another sip, then back again the problem is gone. This is a work around, not a fix and like you I do not know what's causing it.

I'm reluctant to hard reset as I've just done a rebuild recently. I'm hoping my next hard reset will be for Second Edition.

Have you had any more luck with it?

Cheerio

Howard
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] :
Sorry for my lousy english what do you mean with "switch to another sip" ??
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Rayan:
@Guest,

Just select another input method like character recognizer and then back to the keyboard or whatever software input method (SIP) you preffer.

Regards,

Rayan
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] k_kirk:
I also have the same problem. It seemed to appear after I installed ThinkOutside BT Keyboard.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] :
Thanks for explaining me ;-)

I understood right but this tip did not work on my mdaII :-(
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pbelcl:
Hi Folks!

Now i got my MDAIII an have THE SAME PROBLEM!!!!!

that means it HAS TO BE an part of software i install because my new device has windows mobile 2003 SE!!

Did nobody find out how we can get rid of this "feature" ???
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] k_kirk:
This is very interesting indeed! Are you saying you have the "feature" on a XDA3 out the box? Did you install any keyboard related software? Then again the XDA3 has the internal keyboard and therefore I assume it has some form of drivers pre-installed to support this.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pbelcl:
No!

I installed all my software already. i will try to find out which program it is!

But i have to use the device so i cant hardreset it every day :-(
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] paulmc:
This was resolved just before the site crashed and lost data. Send me you installed software and I should be able to remember which one it was, PM when you update as I may miss this thread.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pbelcl:
Wonderful, here is the List:

Pocket Zen Phone 5.0

SPB Pocket Plus 2.2

Visual CE 8.0

ScreenSnap 1.0

Sprite Backup 3.1

Codewallet Pro 3.6

Resco File Explorer 4.30

Total Commander

Audio Note

Pocket Controller 4.09

i hope i did not forget something ....
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] paulmc:
spb if I remember correctly, I would then try total commander second
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pbelcl:
I'll try! Thanks for your hints!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] hshortt:
hmmm...

I still have this too, I thought it might be Fitaly but coming to the conclusion that it's not. It's a severely annoying problem.

Narrowing down the lists of software that have been published, I have the following in common.

SPB Pocket Plus

PocketZenPhone

Sprite Backup.

I noticed that both PocketZenPhone and Sprite Backup appeard on both published lists, has anyone found the culprit?

Cheers

Howard
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] hshortt:
hmmm.... starting at the top, I removed SPB Pocket Plus and the arrow is gone from notes.

Two soft resets and the arrow is still gone! :)

Yet another bug with PocketPlus then???

Cheers
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] dcs:
I have seen this on my XDA II - and the only applications from the lists that I have installed are PocketZenPhone and Resco.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] hshortt:
Well having removed Pocket Plus to check, I've reinstalled it and I still don't have the arrow. So far, so good.

I don't know if the soft reset cured it (temporarily) or if installing the latest build of PocketPlus did it.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pbelcl:
i think that the latest version of pocket plus does not solve the problem because i have installed the latest version (V2.2!).

and i found out that a softreset really can solve the problem temporarily, but it will com back soon ;-(

i also wrote a mail to spb and got this answer:

------

Hello,

It is unlikely that Pocket Plus is the reason of that. Anyway, try to

uninstall Pocket Plus from your device and see if this arrow disappears or

not.

------

so i am afrait that we have to look further. next i'll write a mail to zendrui ....
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] SiliconS:
This started happening to Me today too, and I also have PZP 5.1 beta and Resco installed. No PocketPlus. All apps have been working fine for Me. Only PZP is a recent addition.

ROM 1.72.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] mtbsoft:
I've also had this problem for some time but been unable to identify a specific application which has caused it to start happening. However, I do know what it is!!!

Look at page 130 of the O2 manual (Section 9.1 Pocket Word, b. Writing Mode). The problem appears to be that the input method is switching from Typing mode to Writing mode and it appears to be as a result of a stylus stroke which is sufficiently large enough to bridge three lines (see the manual text).

Try this test... Soft reset. Open an existing document and carefully select some text on one line - no prob. Select more text across multiple lines - no prob. Draw a stroke across three or four lines - it doesn't actually have to write anything, now try to select something - arrow appears!

I'm hoping to track down what has caused the sensitivity to increase of late (about the last three months this has been a problem) but it's just finding the time, but I'm also looking at changing the Zoom settings on the Settings | Personal | Input | Options screen in the hope of stopping it from detecting the multiple lines stroke.

Could all of you indicate what input method you use - it might be important - I use Calligrapher.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] dcs:
I use the standard SIP keyboard.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] hshortt:
I'm using letter recogniser.

I noticed that since I unistalled Pocket Plus and reinstalled it that I'm fine at the moment, it could be the installation order of PZP and PocketPlus that is somehow causing this sensitivity?

Cheers.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] zendrui:
I had the problem once but didn't figure out why.

I'm just reading this thread and the fact that maybe it could come from PZP or from PZP + something.

So I tried on a clean XDA2 to install both PZP 5.1beta and last PocketPlus2.x but I don't have the arrow (even after a soft reset)

Same on my personnal SPVM1000, I have an older PocktPlus version + PZP5.1beta and no arrow :?

I really don't see how it could come from PZP but if it came for PZP I don't have the problem anymore... :?:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pbelcl:
startet a test

1. Thanks Zendrui for helping us with this problem !

normally this problem occurs after some time not imedeadly!

so i started a test.

my mdaii runs without phoneman (it's very hard for me :-)) but with all my other programs since a view days. i did not deinstall phoneman but made a hardreset and installed all but phoneman.

no arrows till now, we'll see .....
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] SiliconS:
I almost always use Transcriber...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] cruisin-thru:
I think the arrow is being beamed to the screen by aliens, if you look in the direction of the arrow you will find planet x, if its cloudy you wont see it though.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] dcs:
:lol: Actually i think it's planet Y :)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] hshortt:
Shaggin' Aliens are back on my device then, cause the feckin' arrow is back.

What a pain in the hole! It's so frustrating that when I want to scribble a note I just can't.

:evil:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] dcs:
It was back on mine yesterday too. A soft reset cured it. However, I found that using transcriber and having the drawing toolbar showing at the bottom, I was able to scribble. With the toolbar hidden, I only got the arrow.

The arrow is a legitimate mechanism and indicates the moving of data within a document, but, of course it seems to persist when it shouldn't.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pbelcl:
No arrow without ZenPhone

Hi Folks!

i try to find out if zenphone is possibly the problem and so i made a hardreset and installed all on my device exept zenphone.

till now (installation 3 days ago) i have NO PROBLEM with this arrow!!

i think zenphone is NOT allone the problem. maybe it is zenphone in combination with another program??

can anybody give me a statement to this combination?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] hshortt:
I'm still using PocketZenPhone, it's the very last suspect in my opinion. I soft reset and I am able to draw again.

I agree that it may be a combination of applications that's causing this, but I wonder if it could also be something in the notification database or some other scheduled task thats causing it.

Lastly, as this thread has just so few of us I wonder are we the only ones with this issue? PocketZenPhone and all the other apps mentioned are very popular applications, surely this issue should be more widespread.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] zendrui:
Hi guys,

it seems that PZP was a or the cause of the arrow :oops:

So please accept my excuses for that trouble :?

The last beta version correct that and so the next released version will too.

Regards,

Zendrui
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] hshortt:
Hi Zen,

I've been watching your thread too, so I know that you had it solved. I'm eagerly waiting on the new version of PZP. Thanks for your unending resolve to deliver the best you can!

Cheers
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] aureus:
Hi Zen,

I have been using PZP 5.1 since its release.... then I saw the arrow appear... it puzzled me for some time till I came searching on this forum wand was directed to this thread.

But 5.1 is suppposed to have solved the arrow problem right?

It's wierd still...

I installed the 5.1 from ur website, copied the CAB file for the pocketzenphonetray5_1.arm.cab and ran it to install it. Checked PXP on m MINI and it is v5.1.

But I still got the arrow.... :(
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] SiliconS:
Now you remind me...

I've also had the arrow with PZP 5.1 on a fresh install of ROM 1.72 on my XDA2, but only once and it hasn't caused a problem. I'd forgotten about it until I saw your post.

Perhaps Zen's troubles aren't quite finished yet... :(
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Timmeh:
Very sorry for bumping an old topic, but I have this problem too and I have PZP 5.1...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] snorbaard:
Sadly, same here.

Using XDA II with Mystery man's WM 2003SE ROM.

Doesn't happen EVERY time though...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] aureus:
Yup I got it even on PZP 5.2 beta 1.

Zen who programs PZP feedbacked that so far no one with 5.1 has this arrow coming up so that makes it the two of us. Then again, it may be due to another software... what else you running?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Timmeh:
As well as PZP, I have:

Today Task Manager

Intellipad (that I cant install)

PocketMusic today item

Thats about all that i think it could be.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pbelcl:
i think that could it be! just an idea but i think i also hat some problems with this program....
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Timmeh:
Just a real shame that I cant actually uninstall it. I'm actually considering doing a hard reset, but I know that it'll take ages to get activesync working over bluetooth again.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] aureus:
Besides PZP, I have...

SPB pocket plus

iSilo

Calendar plus

Task plus

That's all.... so we have PZP in common only...

Sigh, But I've just uninstalled PZP and am using my Mini without it. No more "ARROW". I now just use the vibrate mode instead. Will wait till PZP gets better.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pbelcl:
i would try to deinstall PZP and reinstall the actual version again.

maybe there is a way to deactivate intellipad instead of installing it....

maybe rename some executables ....
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Timmeh:
I just got as far as uninstalling it with the help of edsub. However the option is still there under the SIP options, just when you hit it the keyboard comes up instead of intellipad (as its not installed any more). Better than nothing but still a pain. Haven't had the arrow for a while so it may have been the cause, will let you know.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Timmeh:
Well its been a while but it still comes up every now and then, and is a real pain when it does. I can't find any information on how this arrow gets activated normally, let alone what makes it come on seemingly randomly. Any ideas? Do we think that its PZP?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] aureus:
I've stopped using PZP since my post above and the arrow never appeared since then.....
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Timmeh:
So it looks like PZP then? Thats a real shame, I liked being able to switch easily between custom profiles. Maybe it'll get fixed in the next releases.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] dave:
It has been fixed. Download the last release and you will see :lol:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Timmeh:
The latest Beta? I'm running 5.1 at the mo.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] dave:
Yes, it has many interesting features; and afaik the arrow disappears (so all the users say in pzp 3d).

Personally I have no more arrows on my qtek.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Timmeh:
Ace just installed it and all is looking good :D
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Timmeh:
Ah except I got the arrow again :(
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] wobblypocket:
Hi

Pocket Zenphone is, as we all know, great and a credit to its author (creep creep). This is a funny little problem isn't it?

I had it with version 5, installed 5.1 and it went away, only to return a couple of days back (around the same time as i installed Max Tillberg's "A Viking Saga" - nice public domain strategy game).

Not sure if the two are linked or if this is a pure coincidence, but thought you might be interested.

I see there's a version 5.2 so i'll pop that on and see what happens.

Interesting issue though, isn't it? It's a funny one - the arrows do actually serve a purpose - running words into one allows you to select and delete a whole line at a time. Someone at some point must have found that a desirable thing to do in order for them to have programmed this facility into some part of our machine's software. I say it looks deliberate because some work's obviously gone into the arrows, which i never see in any other aspect of XDA functioning.

Interesting - will this vestigial function be "evolved out" with 5.2?

Take care!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] wobblypocket:
Doof! No such luck. Just got to work, nearly 2 days after upgrading to v5.2 and the arrow's back as i reply to an SMS this morning. It was sorted out ok yesterday, but seems to have all gone a bit wrong overnight. All i've used it for in the intervening time (apart from few calls last night, after which i'm pretty sure it was ok when around midnight i sent an SMS) is a game of "A Viking Saga". Really neat game but i wonder if it may be involved?

And now, just a few seconds later, when returning to complete the same message, the arrows have gone and highlighting's working normally again!

This is too weird! I didn't initialise any programs - just left it a minute to turn itself to standby while i wrote the above lines. Hit the power button to return to my message and the problem was all ok again!

Riddle me that!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] zendrui:
Hi guys,

I apologize because it seems that with the 5.2 the arrow is back.

Whereas I didn't use the functoins that caused that in the 5.01 version :?

Well in all cases note that you just have to get et install the last 5.2 packages (dated 17/02/05 15:42)

And all must come back in order.

PS : Do not forget to export your modes before.

Sorry again for that trouble :oops:

[HTC One X+] avr-Illithian:
I have an AT&T HOX+ and basically it's dead, but I figured it was worthwhile asking for suggestions. My phone was rooted and running ViperXL, working normally. Then I dropped it, while it was plugged in. What I managed to do was mangle the micro USB port beyond usability, while the phone had 1% battery. At the time it seemed like the phone was otherwise totally fine, so I figured this wouldn't be an unreasonable fix.

I brought my phone into a local repair shop with good reviews and had them look at my phone. They said the USB port was a simple fix, 20$ part and they did fix it. Four days later I get a call from them saying we're really sorry, but we did the fix and the phone still doesn't work - it seems to be a problem with the logic board. I picked up the phone yesterday and basically confirmed what they said. The USB port is fixed but doesn't appear to serve much purpose.

Here are the symptoms: nothing visibly wrong with the phone or charging port, other than the fact that it won't boot. When plugged in, a small red LED blinks every ~1.5 seconds in the speaker grille. When the power button is held down, after about 5 seconds the three LEDs light up for 2 seconds then turn off. Nothing else happens.

Edit: I should add that the blinking LED continues when not plugged in. Plugging the phone in doesn't really appear to do anything.

The repair people are probably right and it's the logic board - which is pretty unhelpful. When I asked what they suggested, they said any repair is going to be very expensive and it might be worth getting a new phone. I've only had this phone for 4 months so I have another 20 months of happy contractual obligations. At this point I'm looking for any suggestions on where to get this phone repaired. I may have voided whatever warranty HTC offers by getting my phone repaired aftermarket but when I researched the warrenty, it didn't seem like it would cover this issue anyway. I haven't tried bringing the phone into an AT&T store yet. Thank you!
[HTC One X+] o_O:
I don't know that I can give you a definitive answer, but I can say that the blinking red LED is (or can be) caused by the battery having no charge. If you ask me, I say that even though the USB port is fixed, it's not delivering any charge to the battery.
[HTC One X+] avr-Illithian:
That seems pretty likely which means either the repair people didn't correctly put on the new part or by dropping it I broke something more complicated.

I guess my real question is more about repair / replacing the phone. Is there an official repair outlet for HTC that could repair it? At this point paying is inevitable but I'd rather not buy a new phone if possible, although the new nexus GS4 is tempting.
[HTC One X+] TatoValverde:
The blinking red light means the phone doesn't have enough power to even power up. I don't know about the other 3 led thing you talk about, but try to leave your phone charging for a couple of hours and then try to power it up.
[HTC One X+] avr-Illithian:
It doesn't seem to be getting any charge at all when plugged in, so replacing the usb port must not have fixed the problem.
[HTC One X+] coco15:
better to buy a brand new HTC unit
