[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] bsw11:
Proximity Screen Off Pro by SHAILESH is the one I use - I tuned it up with the Dev and it works really great if you have the Samsung integrated cover case. But there is one secret to get it to work - the cover does not trigger the the sensor - in fact you can touch the cover and activate things on the screen if the screen is on. So to fix this problem I double sided taped (you can spot glue as well) a card made of paper stock on the inside of the cover and bingo works perfect. My wife had some cool card designs so it actually looks really nice a customized when I open the cover.

There are some tweaks to the timing you need to make as well:

Preferences:

Screen On/Off Modes

Flip/Cover Mode: ON

Timeout 1.5 sec

Enable Screen On using Gest - This lets you wave your hand over the sensor to turn on the screen - nice.

All Settings:

Enable device admin - this is a really nice feature- it allows you to have it unlock your phone when the app is active. It has a widget that I use to turn the service on and off. At home I use the cover, away I do not and the phone locks.

Flip cover fix - No Recognize Delay - ON Delay is 3 secs.

Disable call handling - On

Enable Schedule Start Stop

These are what I found works great for me.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wdz:
I rooted my phone about 6 months ago. It worked fine up until a few months ago when it would crash on boot now and again. It wasn't too bad.

About two months ago I turned my phone on, and it's getting stuck on the Samsung boot logo. It stay's on it for about 5 minutes then just goes off.

I tried restoring the firmware, and it restored OK, according to odin, but when it boots up it does the exact same.

I cannot access recovery mode, only download mode. The phone is a UK samsung s3 and charges fine.

I sent it away to O2 as it was under warranty and they said I would be £80 before they would even look at it as the USB port had water damage.. I think this is total ballox.

Is there anything I can do? I am going on holiday tomorrow and would like to try and get it back up and running. :good:

Cheers

Hi all,

I've loaded this ROM successfully and am enjoying it quite a bit - I have two "test" KFs and I've noticed that in the "Settings" area, the serial number is missing in each device (without this, Google Play store seems only to see the last KF logged in). Is there any way to locate the serial number or if that is not possible to regenerate one?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I would like to able to add certain contacts from my contacts list to the speed dial list (on XDA II) from within my application.

i.e. automatically create the speed dial list from a downloaded list.

I realise that the list is held in the speed.db datatable, but can anyone help me with the logic of how to add to this list, it seems to be a well protected file. Is there a simple API call perhaps?

Any suggestions please.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] UNCMo96:
Is there a way to share only one number with a contact. For example share only my work information but not my home phone and address. I used to have a motorola phone which had this feature. Is this possible on the galaxy s4.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] LittleRedDot:
I just came from a jawbone, and a Motorola before that. Both of those headsets had 3rd party apps for voice command functions and we're highly configurable. Unfortunately Bose decided not to include any app or software and instead relies on the phones innate voice command ability. At first I couldn't get it to work because I had svoice frozen, but once I got it back up and running I can now use the multifunction button on the headset and give voice commands. The problem I'm having is svoice takes forever to complete an action. So to place a call I have to hit the multifunction button on the headset, wait 5 seconds for the beep, verbalize my command, wait 10 seconds for svoice to ask me for confirmation, then after I confirm I wait another 7-10 seconds for svoice to repeat the command and a few more seconds to place the call. The whole process takes 60 seconds or so and that's just ridiculous.

So my questions are, is there any way to speed up svoice? I looked in options but I didn't see anything. Or can I scrap svoice for g-now or another app?

What do you recommend?

PLEASE make sure to thank the developer for the dedication to his ROM

​

Please do not clutter the Development thread with non development-related chatter​
[HTC Amaze 4G] kuzibri:
FAQ​

Q Why a special Q&T Thread for a specific ROM??

A The bigger a ROM development thread gets, the greater the chance that posts are being placed in this thread that are not related to the ROM development itself, e.g. problems with flashing, installation, bugs, things not working etc. However this is understandable, it's not according to the guidelines of XDA for Development sections. Therefore the main goals of the ROM specific Q&T threads is to avoid this cluttering of the original develpment thread with these OT posts by redirecting the posters to the ROM specific Q&T thread and also to relieve the developer from answering these post, so he can dedicate his time to developing.

Q How to move my post to the Q&A/T thread?

A Copy the text of your post in the dev's thread, got to the Q&A/T thread and paste it there. After having done that, go back to the dev's thread, edit your post and change the text into: moved to Q&A/T thread, preferably accompanied with a link to this thread.

Q When I'm asked to move my post to the Q#A/T thread, do I have to do that?

A When you're asked to move your post, there will always be given an explanation by the OP of the Q&A/T, e.g. your post is not development related (f.i. SD card problems, etc), so please be so kind to move your post. If you want to help the dev to keep his original thread as clean as possible from OT posts, then the answer is, of course, YES. Although we cannot force you to move your post, it's highly recommended to do so

Q Where can I download this ROM and How do I install?

A You can find the link to download and installation instructions HERE. Pay close attention to this post, everything required for a successful flash is listed right here. If you fail to follow the instructions or meet the requirements for installation, you could run into some problems.

Q What are the known issues with these ROM's?

A See THE Developer's thread:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2362863.

Q How’s battery life?

A I see this question asked repeatedly across all ROMS. Honestly there is no way to give you an answer based on a ROM. There are too many variables in question and results vary from user to user and device to device. Battery life is going to depend on age and condition of your battery, your use habits with your device, installed apps, tweaks, settings, etc...

Q How do I...

A Ask your questions and report your issues in this thread. You will receive a response and hopefully get you back up and running this ROM to it's fullest

Love TSTO and played it often on my OG N7 but now that I have it on the N7 2013, it seems to be zoomed in rather close on the town and it's rather annoying.

Has anyone else noticed this with TSTO?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Themes and Apps] teh roxxorz:
I guess I can't comment, but it seemed okay to me. Seemed too much like farmville; I couldn't get into it, though it did visually look nice.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Themes and Apps] hallucinate:
Yes! Finally some one else seeing this issue. My guess is that the game is defaulting to the lowest resolution because it doesn't recognize our amazing n7 2 yet. Hopefully it will be optimized soon. It is also laggy at times. My original nexus 7 is much smoother and is more zoomed out. Kind of disappointing to have a better experience on older hardware but what can you do.

What about xposed framework app settings, You could try forcing a different dpi if the module is working.

I was just wondering if anybody has been having this issue. After successfully locking onto satellites for GPS for navigation, if I turn off maps when I reach my destination, it requires a reboot until I can use GPS again, it only updates once every few minutes. Haven't done much testing on it since I was on a highway going 80 when I noticed
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] openwheelracing:
Same issue here. I think its wide spread but only a few of us use the GPS function

This seems to be a legitimate issue. Has anyone reported the bug to Google?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] kmartburrito:
HERES THE FIX!!

I had this very same issue, and found a resolution for it (can't remember the source now)

After taking both system updates and rebooting, it is necessary to hard reset the device. Upon the initial boot, you must leave all options checked but the following -

Backup and Restore options (you can turn on after the initial setup is finished from options)

there are three location options, one being new to 4.3 and what I believe to cause this - it mentions the ability for location to be grabbed when the screen is off. You must diable this option.

Finish installation, and then you will have properly working GPS.

Here's how I'm quantifying that - before when I was in the exact same boat as those in this thread, I would open GPS test, and I could see 7 or 8 sats in view, but it wouldn't lock. Or if it did, it would work for a short period of time, and then bomb out. I drove around the city for a few hours yesterday using the GPS so we're near and dear now to each other.

After doing all this - you will IMMEDIATELY see 20 sats available upon launching gps test and then almost immediately get full lock and keep it that way.

Was a pain that I had to clear everything, but now GPS is working as I would expect it, and I've not had any issues getting full lock, even in my basement.

Hope this helps!!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mrc13an:
I tried to duplicate the problem you describe, but was not able to.

Here is what I did:

- Launch Maps application for the first time.

- Accepted the terms of service and enabled location services access, including Wi-Fi.

- Got location via Wi-Fi, then pinpointed the location via GPS.

- Back to home screen -> Settings -> Apps.

- Maps was not running, but I went into Maps under the all apps view and force closed it.

- Back to home screen.

- Launch the Maps application again and I had an accurate location via GPS in less than 10 seconds.

I repeated this procedure again with the same results. I then disabled Wi-Fi location assistance so that only GPS was available. Repeating the tests twice again and I still see the same results. I have no problems getting a good location lock quickly.

I am running the stock firmware, build JSS15J, and Maps v7.0.1.

I am happy to test again if somebody having this problem can provide specific information regarding their test procedures and results.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Flippy125:
It was showing an accurate location in Maps until I started to drive. Once I sped up, it showed me where I was ~15 miles back
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Flippy125:
Thanks, I'll try this when I get back to a decent data connection
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] skyhawk21:
I was the source #1, AND #2 although I thought this fixed it, the issue came back! Its like a memory error with the gps driver and or buffer with a overstack flow of data and it either crashes it so you loose gps functions, or locks it up so its searching but never locks. Seems as if its software and android 4.3 or google system service or framework issues. Same problem with older S4 chipsets and jellybean. Google fixed that by updating system files for jelly bean 4.1.2 and 4.2.x. Also the new maps could be the culprit as well since it was updated to a completely new version.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mrc13an:
I had done a hard reset as well after applying the initial updates. I left backup enabled but disabled restore during the setup process and disabled all three location features as well.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] kmartburrito:
Yes you were, I remember your username now. Thanks skyhawk21! You resolved this for me. I used my N7 for a few hours in the car yesterday, and it was spotty and crappy in clear weather for a while, I did a reset in the car like you mentioned, and everything now has been working solidly since. Thanks again.

The last part is sad to hear. I however have used it for several hours straight with no issues, so I'm hoping it stays strong.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] openwheelracing:
I am confused, so should I reset mm y tablet? Will that actually fix GPS?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] skyhawk21:
It will fix it for awhile but the issues creeps back up.... good luck this new nexus 7 is turning to be into a nightmare, flaky gps and flaky touch screen issues on two fo them now!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sfhub:
As long as you only use google maps it seems to work ok.

Once you start using other GPS apps (GPS Test, Gas Buddy, Google Earth) the problem shows up eventually.

It might have to do with multiple apps accessing GPS, but that is just a guess.

I wouldn't bother factory resetting (for the N7 2013 GPS issue). Reboot has always allowed the unit to get locks again (for me) It feels like an OS or driver problem.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Flippy125:
I found a posting on AndroidCentral about the same issue. According to one of the posters, the issue is known by Google and an OTA should be pushed out soon for it. I just hope its true because I'm pretty dependant on my N7 for finding my way around town

hmmmmm gps wasn't locking earlier then decided to do a soft reset, now it's working. I just have to try it later when i drive home and see what's up.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sfhub:
You probably have a hardware issue with the GPS on your particular unit.

I have access to a couple of units right now and GPS was resolved on all of them with JSS15Q (GPS was an issue on all of them prior)

On 1st boot after JSS15Q, I tested GPS with a GPS Tester app and it wouldn't show any satellites. I messed around flipping GPS settings on, off, on and rebooted, and worked after reboot. I've not experienced anything as of yet.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] PJ Clifford:
All I can offer is that the GPS on the SGS seems to work well, at least within the confines the phone itself. It CAN be a bit cranky to start up on occasion, but it is generally rock solid beyond that point. I have a couple of off-line GPS programs on it, and they both seem to work fine.

---------- Post added at 11:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:08 AM ----------

BTW, I just picked up the Nexus 7 over the weekend. Haven't tried tethering it yet with the SGS, as I am reading now that there is a fix for the GPS and touchscreen problems. Is that correct?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sfhub:
The update fixes GPS for almost everyone though there are a few that say it broke GPS for them.

The multi-touch is fixed for some, no change (ie still have issues) for others, and a few say it is worse (ie slight issue became more noticeable issue).
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] PJ Clifford:
Sounds like I need to wait a bit for this to shake out before I try to tackle an update.

Thanks!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sfhub:
Depends what your issue is and whether you are coming up on the end of a return/exchange policy period.

If you never had multi-touch issues and are very annoyed at GPS issues, I would do the update.

If you have both multi-touch and GPS issues, I would do the update.

If you are running up against return/exchange period and you just want to know if this fixes things and if not you are going to return/exchange, do the update.

If you have minor multi-touch issues but no GPS issues or don't care about GPS, I would hold off.

If you don't have multi-touch issues, but don't care about or don't have GPS issues, I would hold off, unless you need it for something like Netflix.

Just my opinion, you should do what is best for your situation.
