Very Nice. A few comments after a quick test.

I am mainly interested in the Auto (half) mode. And quick test it seems to work as wanted :) . I where planning* to automatically switch between the landscape orientations depending whether I was lying on my right or left side. I might not mean much in practice, which I will know after some more testing..

*I where planning on using this as a learning project for doing android programming, when (if ever) I had time and energy.

And quick comment about the radio buttons, it is not obvious, that they can be scrolled into view. I thought it was broken and outer rights modes inaccessible. Perhaps placing the vertically would be better.

I also like a quick toggle to enable disable it, e.g. widget or shortcut. I just discover this floating Icon and will see how well that work.

Great work :)
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] lbell:
The mode selection is changed in version 1.1 now. I'm still considering other pieces of advice. Thanks.:)

IMPORTANT: Uninstall the previous version first or you will be puzzled. I've changed the package name since the previous domain name is already registered, so version 1.1 won't replace version 1.0.
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] pmeinert:
Better :)

Another tip about your help text. Remove/disable/replace with a picture the controls. One thinks, this is the real program first time, but nothings happens, when operating them which is confusing. There is also the same problem with modes radio buttons scrolling horizontally and not all visibile..

Nice looking graphics.

I will try to use it in real life the next days and see how it works out.
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] lbell:
Now you can use these controls in help in version 1.3.

IMPORTANT: I'm sorry but I forgot to sign the previous versions with private keys...Please uninstall first. Thanks. :)
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] lbell:
I have updated it to version 1.5!
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] wikie:
this is a zip apk d no, I have to install it on or TWRP? thank you
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] lbell:
It's just an apk. Install directly. :)

Note: It has been updated to version 1.6.
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] pmeinert:
Thanks again for your effort Ibell.

A few more wishes/ideas.

1. A transparency slider for the floating icon would be nice. So it is still easy to hit, but less disturbing.

2. Floating Icon only appears shortly when phone is rotated. preferable in the center, so you don't need to look for it. Have a look at Adaptive Rotation.

3. Option to toggle between two rotation, instead of all 4 on floating icon. I prefer that over the dual rotation option, since it takes up to much screen (because at small size, the two buttons are too close). The space problem issue is less of a problem, if only appears shortly like described above and can be partially transparent, but I still prefer a 2 angle toggle option ;)

Not working for me on Trickdroid 8 with ElementalX kernel.
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] lbell:
They are all available in version 2.0! Enjoy it!
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] lbell:
I'm sorry but I don't know why. Could you please install version 2.0 and try again?
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] pmeinert:
That steends great! Unfortunately the apk seems broking. The installer crashes :(
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] lbell:
!?!? Can you install other apks? It works well here.

I had this problem several days ago (no apks could be installed then) and finally I found that it was due to no complete wiping before I restore a ViperOne ROM backup.
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] pmeinert:
Ok, I did a wipe and restored my last backup and that solved the installation problem, thanks. It was not only yours I couldn't install.
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] lbell:
I'm glad your phone is okay now. Don't forget to update to version 2.1!
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] pmeinert:
Hi Ibell. Thanks for your great work. I really like it now and it seems to cover my need, though I will keep testing. Only thing missing, is option to automatically start on boot.

For your information I test one use case and that is easy switching between sideward use in bed an normal use and I can do that now :)

I obtain this by using the auto mode and ban 180 + 270 degrees. Just keep in mind, that is what I need and therefor have not spend time testing the other modes.

Some ideas:

- Profiles. define profiles of the current settings (basic), which you can toggle with the floating toggle. E.g. my use case profile 1 = auto offset 0, profile 2 = auto offset 90. If more that two profiles, have option to extend the floater for directly selecting the wanted profile.

- Application specific orientation or profile. Some apps. require landscape (games), while some other require portrait (Sense).

If you split some of the functionality into a paid version, I would gladly pay for it.
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] lbell:
Thanks for the advice. I'm going to add support for auto-start on boot and profiles. But I am not planning to make application specific profiles so far because Sense/most games/... have already defined their ideal rotation and IntelliRotate do not force them to rotate.
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] pmeinert:
Ok. Yes maybe you are right. My experience was from a rotation locking app. Don't have a fresh example
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] pmeinert:
Hi Ibell a few more comments after some usage:

- The sensitivity is high. When placed horizontally like on a table It keeps rotating back and forth.

- The floater moves around over time, even with absolute position. I haven't really determined the cause of this. Don't know if rounding error builds up in the math (floating point/integer conversion), statusbar on/off or I accidentally push it a bit on use. Anyway a simple solution would be an option to place it fixed center/center.

- The slider for adjusting things does not indicate their current value. You only get informed by a toast message after adjusting them. It would nice to see the value in digits at all time, updated realtime when moving the slider and perhaps even have it as input field so value can be entered directly.

- Sensitivity on rotation. Increase the threshold before rotation is initiated. Allow more deviation than +-45 degrees from current rotation before rotation initiate. I don't know how high, but a good guess would be around 3/4*90degrees = 67.5degrees

- Luxury problem. Custom Icon on floater. As you see from my screenshots I prefer simple monochromatic theming and the blue icon does not match it ;)

I got an error message (see attachment) and below is the content of errorlog.txt:

[One (M7) Themes and Apps] pmeinert:
More feedback.

I just discovered by changing size, that it doesn't happen from the center of the floating icon, more like top/left corner. I think it would be more natural to use the center.

Also when positioning it on the screen I would prefer the center coordinates as boundary, so it can be partial hidden at the edges/corners.
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] lbell:
Actually problem #1 #2 #4 have already been solved in version 2.3, and a new feature about problem #3 is carried out in version 2.4. I'm now trying to add an option to replace the float button icon. When it comes to the error, to tell you the truth, I haven't figured out why it occurred. :silly:
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] pmeinert:
Hi Ibell, again thanks for your swift updates. The absolute position feels a bit stabler. However you never get it fully right until you rotate the icon around it's center.

I found a test picture with the center marked. If i place the icon with it's center in the exact screen center in landscape, It will not be centered in portrait and visa versa.
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] lbell:
The problem is due to the status bar. Android always returns a status bar height = 75px on 480ppi screens, no matter if it is hidden. I'm now trying to fix it.
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] lbell:
Version 2.5 has already fixed the bug!
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] pmeinert:
Thanks for the fix. After a quick repeat of my test picture(s same picture rotated 90degrees) it does indeed seem to work now :)

Ps. I am on holiday and partly switched to my old phone as main phone. Therefore my feedback silenced a bit ;)
[Epic 4G General] Mr_You:
Hey forum newb here!

I was lucky enough to receive an SPH-D700 earlier this year as my first smartphone! :cyclops: Problem is its kinda busted up and the USB pins are broke. :mad:

So I'm really bummed I can't upgrade to CyanogenMod. At least not without a lot of trouble (attempting the latest MasterKey hack for example).

I know its a shot in the dark, but I thought I would just put the word out if any of you guys are upgrading and want to pass along your old phone to a wannabe mod'er... I'd really be interested.

I'm willing to pay shipping.

Send me a PM if you're interested!

Thanks!

You can use the Swappa link in the forum header. I'm not sure if the mods will keep this thread intact given the subject matter.
[Epic 4G General] Mr_You:
Oh I didn't realize if this might be off topic.

And just to be clear, I'm not looking to buy a phone right now. I'm just looking for a kind soul.

Doesn't hurt to ask.

But thanks for pointing out the Swappa link. Will consider it in the far future.
[Epic 4G General] jeffreyjicha:
It's not that it's off topic, it's just that buying and selling is no longer allowed within the forums of xda. That's why there's the swappa link, so I'd head there first for a phone.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] FaeMinx:
This is what happened:

My device was rooted with Framaroot. I had SManager installed and using apps2sd to swap my internal memory with the SD card.

I ran Fable Kingdom (a game) but still had power saving activated.

The game loaded, but when in-game I was presented with a black screen. I could still hear the game sounds, but the home, menu, and back buttons were unresponsive.

So I held down the power button untill the device restarted.

But within 10 - 20 seconds after the home screen appearing the device would freeze, becoming completely unresponsive for a couple of minutes and then it would reboot.

At first I thought this happened because of SManager, because it froze just as SManager was loaded.

I managed to boot into safe mode (which disables all 3rd party apps) and uninstalled SManager.

Didn't help.

I ran check disk on the SD card on my desktop computer. It found errors and fixed them. Still didn't help.

I then uninstalled all the apps I thought could be running at the time I forced my device to reset: Fable Kingdom, Whatsapp, Taskbar 7, Snap Pad, all to no avail.

I then had a look and manually deleted the data folders for those apps on the SD card because uninstalling them wasn't deleting them (because apps2sd was no longer being loaded?)

Still didn't help.

I'm now thinking a factory reset and formatting of the SD card (i.e. starting from scratch) is my only option. I only wish I could backup the apps I've installed in the last two months since my last Titanium Backup... But as safe mode disables all 3rd party apps, I don't know how to do that?

Any help or advice on what I can do would be greatly appreciated. :(
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] davp:
You could boot into stock recovery and see if it tells you whether your data partition is corrupt/unable to be mounted. If so, you probably have only the factory reset option (from stock recovery) to fix it.

If the system partition is corrupt, it would need an odin flash to fix, but unless you have an original (old) stock rom for your device, you may lose the ability to use framaroot, as newer roms fixed the exploit.

Having had similar scenarios to what you describe on various devices is why I abandoned incremental or application backups, and only use nandroid (cwm or twrp) backups, so that the backup is of almost the whole device at a point in time.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] FaeMinx:
Sorry for the slow reply, i'm actually trying to move house in and amongst all this.

Ok so I booted into stock recovery. Where will it tell me if my data partition is corrupt?

It looks like this:

Where do I go from here?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] davp:
According to civato in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=42802094, it told him as he entered stock recovery, so I guess your data partition is not corrupt.

You could try factory reset and see if it clears the problem,

Your next step would be to search for your appropriate stock firmware and odin and flash back to stock (and you may need to do the factory reset after that as well if you still can't boot). Sammobile has most of the available firmwares, tools, and instructions, also some of threads here at xda note8. Search, read and understand if you have not used odin before.

Another option is to return back to factory using Kies, but I have never tried this, again you would need to do some research (or wait for other suggestions here).

Good luck!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] FaeMinx:
I have no doubt a factory reset will solve the problem, after all... I can still boot into safe mode, which is pretty much exactly what my device would be like after a factory reset.

I'm not ready to do that though. I still have hope I can identify what is causing my device to freeze 20 seconds after my device has booted into the os, and has started loading apps.

Does anyone know if there is a file that stores which apps are loaded and in what order every time the device is restarted?

If I could read that, I could either modify the file not to load certain apps, or uninstall them one by one.

My main issue is that since my last Titanium Backup, I have installed Horn, Max Payne, and Dark Meadow.

All huge downloads that cost me a fair amount of money (i use cell data. I don't have broadband or free WiFi).

If I were to copy the contents of my SD card, format it, then factory reset my device... Then would I be able to recopy back the data folders to avoid repeating those huge downloads? Or is it hopeless unless I manage to back them up with Titanium?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] brecklundin:
I am very out of practice on my -ix stuff. But if you are rooted can't you open or install if needed a shell so you can just manually check what processes are running? Hope that is not too simplistic a suggestion but my last exposure that that sort of thing was my old Nokia N800 internet tablet.

Sans that what about once in safe more heading into the APPS list and clearing the cache on your installed apps. If that fails then take a swipe at the built-in stuff. Or does a cold-boot basically do this very thing?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] FaeMinx:
How will I be able to download and install a shell and then run it in under 20 seconds?

All that booting into safe mode does is disable all 3rd party apps, so I know for a fact there is no problem with any of the built in stuff.

I'll try clearing the cache if I can find that option when I get a chance - probably this evening.

Thanks for the suggestions. :)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] brecklundin:
oh geeze you're right, didn't think that through. I was thinking you were stable with safe mode boot.

My tf700t went into a spontaneous bootloop mode a couple weeks ago. The only fix I had was a factory reset.

good luck, looking forward to your solution.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] FaeMinx:
We're probably misunderstanding each other somehow. :)

I *am* stable with a safe mode boot...

Are you saying I can install apps (i.e. a shell) in safe mode?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] brecklundin:
Naw I'm just being dense of late. ;) Sorry for that...been a long past week at and maybe I'm not tracking cleanly tonight.

You are correct you can't add apps in safe mode. I would have sworn you could but I just tried it with my tablet and nope no chance. Sure would be helpful for sure.

What about connecting to your PC as a storage device so you can snoop around the file system a bit to see what you can screw with even more? hehehe...I know you didn't cause this I'm just being a bit goofy.

If you can connect to your PC via USB is it possible to reup the kernal? Maybe that could refresh the system...then again don't want you to brick your tab so consider it only if you are sure it's safe enough.

I'm just throwing out ideas to see if it shakes something loose for you.

Oh, there was something we can try with our Transformers to try to stop the boot loops...it had something to do with booting while cabled to the PC via USB or something like that. Was not an option for me as I had no PC handy when my started looping. But worth a try maybe? Only works here and there but it supposedly did for a few folks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] red300zx99:
So I updated my phone from CM10.1.0 to CM10.1.2 today. I used the updating feature found in settings.

Everything seemed to go well, the rom updated, phone rebooted, and 140 or so apps updated. Got to home screen and everything works fine. About 5 mins later the phone shuts down. I turn my phone on again, 1 app updates, and I get the home screen. I checked my email and such and put my phone in my pocket. About 5 mins later I notice my phone has turned off again, cept this time now it won't come back on :/

I've searched google and some people point to the battery being the culprit.

http://www.sebertech.com/2013/03/sam...-problems.html Issue #16

and

http://forums.androidcentral.com/spr...turn-help.html

Both say to remove battery, plug the phone in, watch for the charging light to come on, then reinsert the battery. This doesnt work either.

If I take my battery out and plug in the charger, the charging light does come on. If I hold the power button down in this state after a few seconds the light will turn off until I release the power button. With the light on and after reinserting the battery the light goes back out after a few seconds. I just went and got a new battery, but thats not working either :/ I havent been able to boot into recovery mode or download mode.

If the update bricked my phone would it turn on and work just fine before dying? I used a data connection just fine after the update.

Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Spark91:
0.e pages not found, derp.

The rom shouldn't be an issue at all because CMTeam... Why would they do such a thing.

When you updated from 1.0 to 1.2 did you:

Wipe Dalvik Cache and Cache before you updated.

reset permissions via Custom Recovery after update?

I saw a few people with S3's that went through exactly the same problem but it turns out the phone's main-board was fried because of a corrupted NAND right after a flash.

If there's no haptic feedback or led when you try to turn on the phone ( With a battery ), it's a possible brick but its not super-bricked.

If you put a usb / charger on the phone with no battery in it and it indicates a red LED. There is a possible 50/50 you can restore it but

it'll cost around some 40-60 bucks for having it JTAGGED.

If there is no LED when the phone's plugged to a charger wall port / USB via computer with no battery.

It is completely dead and you'd wanna send that in to get a brand new phone.

It just looks like you need it JTAG Repaired.

Hopefully others would have a better and possible way of finding what happened. Because mines would be a last resort

type of thing and its the only thing I know when the SIII Bricks after completely doing a clean flash or if the phone ends up dying

for no reason after a flash.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] red300zx99:
I used the method provided by CM found in settings -> phone info, like I have many many many times. I dont remember the full process, but I dont think those options are provided in that method, just download the rom then click update.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
You claim it booted up after the flash and everything worked, so it can't be that you flashed a cm rom for a different device. It doesn't even attempt the boot splash?

Have you tried putting the battery in and plugging the charger for several hours? Could just be a bad usb port and or bad charger cable and your device simply is out of power. Find a different cable or charger all together and try see if anyone has a similar phone that you can try their battery in your phone.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] red300zx99:
Yeh, the fact that it started fine twice is what is baffling me. Though it did turn itself off after a few mins both times.

Yeh, I plugged the charger in overnight last night just in case. I took it to the sprint store where the guy took out my battery and tested it, he said it was bad and that was the issue. As of now I've tried 4 different batteries. My own, a new one I bought and fully charged and 2 borrowed from people at work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
That's really weird.... And none of the led come on at all? Really weird, it's not a brick issue because it would give some symptoms but it's like it's not getting power at all. It could just be a major hardware failure. The power button is defective on the S3 but it usually makes an attempt to turn on.
