a few questions about my new nook hd+

1) what is the real wallpapers size... its 5 screens wide and i have found that 2820x1920 is close, but not perfect. Anyone know the real size?

2) is there a way to make live wallpapers? what format are they?

3) Can i change the lockscreen at ALL? lol its so plain!

4) is there a way to get a wallpaper off the device? windows explorer doesnt show them....

THANKS!
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
I don't know the answers for 1-3, but the wallpapers are stored in apps in /system.

[Nook HD, HD+ General] Static_fx:
... yeah i cant see that folder? (not rooted/etc)

is there an app to allow me access to it?
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
You can use a root file manager like the free Root Browser Lite and look at and copy the files from /system. You just cannot modify them without root.

[Nook HD, HD+ General] Tom2112:
I think the answer to number 1 is 2904 by 1920. I wish I knew how that was figured out by Android, since 2904 is not a multiple of eight 1920 or 1280 (the native resolution of the display).

Edit: nope. Just test 2904x1920 and there were black bars on the sides when I was landscape and scrolled all the way to the right or the left. Grrrr! I _hate_ the way Android does wallpaper. They made it so difficult for graphics people to do a crystal clear wallpaper image. There should be a switch in settings that says "Screw it, make my wallpaper fixed (non-scrolling and non-rotating) and exactly the resolution of the screen!"

Hello all!

A friend has just bought a HTC One S (S3 model) on a website, but he receive it from UK (i'm french) and his phone was only in english.

Is it possible to change the system language without flashing? If not, does I need to change CID - if it's possible - to be able to flash a stock rom with french? What should I do to change the language?

Thanks in advance, dear community!
[HTC One S] UnspecialEffects:
Go into the settings and then tap Language and Keyboard. From there tap System Language nad select your preferred language. Hope this helps!

Hey everyone, I have an issue with the latest version of Google Play Music. Music added after the major app update (the one after I/O) will have album covers with a yellow/greenish tint. I have tried clearing app data and rebooting, and the images look perfect on my computer and the phone gallery.

I added a few screenshots so you can have a look at what I mean. There's also a comparison between the same image in Play Music and the gallery. The difference can't be seen on my PC screen, but if you download the pics to the phone the difference is easily spottable.

Do any of you have this? To verify, you should add new music to the app, otherwise you'll see no difference.

Hey! First thing first.. I´m a noobie. :silly:

When that is said I have a XZ locked bootlodaer, rooted, .253 firmware. I have model nr C6602 now, I had C6603 on .434 before .253 flash. ****ed up a littlebit.. :cyclops:

Anyway I want to install Niaboc´s eXistenZ and upgrade to .307 If that is possible ?

My question is : Do i have to downgrade firmware to .434 and root all over again - then Uncheck kernel, fota, data, cache & appslog on .253 and hit flash button? And AFTER that I´ll Install eXistenZ Black v3.zip from recovery? or other way around ?

If that is the case is it possible to upgrade to .307 after all this ?

I tried to install eXistenZ Black v3.zip from TWRP after I did the .253 flash.

That did not work , the android dude went down on the ground with a yellow triangle sign on the stomach. :confused:

If anyone can give me a step by step noob guide to achieve this (A little more describing than OP) then I'd be eternally grateful! :fingers-crossed:

Thanks in advance, and sorry for my stupidness, I've just started with android, thanks to XZ!

And if these questions has been answered already I´m truly sorry, Then I'm really bad in forum searching too.. :( please give me a link :highfive:

How to activate the flashlight on the lock screen.

1. You will need to install either Nova or Apex launcher. You don't need to keep this as your launcher in the future, but just to activate this trick.

2. Once running, press & hold an empty spot on your home screen. You will get this window, and choose 'shortcuts'

3. Then select activities.

4. Once this loads (can take a bit if you have many things installed), select settings.

5. Now scroll down to Torch light and select either of the two.

6. It will now add the shortcut to your home screen. Tap on this icon.

7. Check the torch light option and then the time-out amount.

You can now switch back to the launcher of your choice and have the working flashlight. Just hold the power up for a short time and it will come on or tap to volume down to turn off.

Enjoy!

I don't know about the above method, but I am using "Tiny Flashlight" and that provides an option to toggle the light on the lock screen by shaking the phone. Works well enough for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dannyben:
Not sure why you guys are having problems with it, but Nottach also got it running & will include it in his next update (allowing you to map it to your home button instead of you prefer). So if you are running Xposed with his mod should be easier to setup/work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dannyben:
Nottach Xposed v10 now available and includes trick for torch. Can set to home button too if you prefer over volume up.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serendipityguy:
Using the Nova Launcher and followed the steps...

Tried with each of the types and still no joy.

Every time I manually press the volume up and power there is no flashlight, just the 4 way power menu...

When ever I press and hold the icon itself, it gives the settings for the touch light menu to enable the touch light and with the time amount.

I have seen this short cut work with the AnyShortCut app...... maybe there was a step that was overlooked?

If someone figures this out, wonderful!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] CraiaSoftware:
This trick didn't work for me (and Notach Xposed only creates a menu driven shortcut to the same settings screen.)

There is no /sys/devices/virtual/torch/torch/torch_ctl or /sys/devices/virtual/torch/ for that matter.

Can you zip up yours and I'll paste it in?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
it's not missing an apk. It has something to do with waking up. I added some of my own code to it, and it doesn't get ran so long as the device is in deep sleep. If it's plugged in it will run the code. So it's not waking from deep sleep to run the code

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] MerbinJAnselm:
Using an app called Torchie, just press both 'volume buttons' together to turn on/off torch anytime. It runs as a background service and just works anytime, even when screen off (if enabled from Torchie Settings). It kinda make your phone feel like a conventional battery operated torch.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nzcoos:
I have a pretty stock HTC One, and I'm on a particularly sub par data plan, where each 'data session' is rounded up.

I have wifi both at home and at work, good wifi signal and am v close to router etc. I find that if I put the phone into standby and then use it again 5-10 minutes later, it is still connected to wifi, all good. If I leave it for 20-30 minutes, when I wake it, it latches onto the 3g network for a few seconds and then realises there is wifi and connects to that.

I have things like Google+, FB messenger and push mail which I presumed required a constant connection.

Any thoughts on why the wifi appears to be being turned off as it entertains deep sleep?

I can just switch data off when at home or work but I don't want to have to rely on that sort of thing, and the apps that do that for you based on GPS etc aren't that appealing either.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HermanV0929:
Look in adavanced settings under wifi. Should be able to set it to keep wifi on during sleep
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nzcoos:
Thanks for the reply. Yup I have that set to always. Seems to happen both on my home and work wifi, despite great signal strength. Sometimes it seems it does happen even if the phone is unused for 5-10 minutes.

I assume this is actually pretty common and most if not all phones do this, you probably wouldn't notice unless you were tracking each connected data session.

I was thinking the phone must do something like, wake, spend x time looking for wifi while simultaneously connecting to 3g, then when wifi is found it is connected to and the 3g connection is dropped. I guess I'd be looking to delay/postpone that connecting to the 3g network for 5 seconds or so to give the wifi time to establish.

Probably nothing I can do really.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HermanV0929:
I haven't noticed any problem staying connecetd to wifi while sleeping and Ive looked at the notification bar many time before ever unlocking the phone, just to make sure wifi stayed connected as its suppose to and it does. Only see 3g when Ive set it keep wifi on during sleep to only when plugged in and I dont have it plugged in. I also have best wifi performance checked. Dont think that makes much difference though. Im also stock at the moment

hi guys

(sorry for my english i suck at it..)

i have a problem i guess

i was playing around with CWM on my ouya and want to factory reset my ouy (delete everything)

but now the device is doing nothing only the power led is on but that's it..

i tried on a few other screens checked the power supplie but everthing is ok exept that the ouya is booting

is there a way to fix this??? i realy don't know what to do now
[Ouya General] dibblebill:
If you formatted everything instead of just doing the 'wipe' options (ESPECIALLY the /system partition, formatted or wiped), its dead unless you can get into recovery and flash a ROM.
[Ouya General] Mark ter Grote:
I dont know how to enter the cwm....
[Ouya General] syrez:
Hi,

you can reach the recovery, if you connect an USB Keyboard to the Ouya.

Power on the device and press ALT+Print(S-Abf). Then press the "i" key for a about few seconds, stop pressing it and repeat the precedure.

After 5-6 Times you should reach the recovery and you can sideload an Image.
[Ouya General] Mark ter Grote:
what key is the print(s-abf) key? is that the print screen key with sys rg?

ediy: yes is the same key... but i guess you are german ;)

yes, this should be the key.

I have a German Keyboard, so it is a bit tricky to guess the description

[Ouya General] Rirere:
This thread did make me wonder though, does the OUYA have any fastboot-esque interface for extra-recovery repair options?
[Ouya General] neph81:
Yes, ADB reboot bootloader will take you into fastboot mode. You'll need to tell windows to use the ADB drivers again, but I was able to boot the CWM recovery image this way without flashing it.

Very glad to hear it! I didn't see much mention of fastboot, so I was somewhat concerned.

[Ouya Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dibblebill:
Judging from what you've said, you may have formatted and deleted your /system partition. If you can still get to CWM, you're in luck. If not... Call up Ouya and ask about that warranty! As it is, without /system, there is no OS.

I tried some things like plug in a usb keyboard and press alt printscreen but no luck...

Try that and press control-alt-f1 after it SHOULD have booted. You may be out of luck if you actually formatted /system.
