Hello :laugh:

First i would like to say, that I use TonyP s CM 10.2 and before i used T-Build 4

I would like to enable the multiuser function so I went to th Terminal Emulator and write down :

pm get-max-users

-> Maximum supported users: 1

setprop fw.max_users 8

pm create-user test

-> Killed

So why the answer Killed cames back and multiuser doesn´t work ?

I used the search function on the forum, but no results

PS: sorry for my worse English i´m from Germany :angel:

Doesn´t know anyone something about this Problem ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lestat2308:
Hello.

Recently I've upgraded my Android version to 4.2.1 on my Gnex and since then I've experienced many problems regarding Wi-Fi and lag. The problem with the Wi-Fi is that looses connectivity when in standby even if the rooter has no problem. There are some times when I loose Wi-Fi connectivity even when I use my phone. On the other hand, it became laggy, taking forever to open an application.

My question is: what would you suggest me to make my phone better/faster? hard-factory-resetting my phone, or installing a new version of Android, with custom ROMs and other things?

I am new to this community and I don't really know how to reset my phone to the factory Android version.

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ironside2011:
From my understanding, there isn't a fix. I have a Gnexus on 4.2.2 and get the same issue a lot.

My belief is its a problem with jb itself
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rafa1696:
To fix the slowness, either update to 4.3 or install this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grilledmonkey.lagfix and run it regularly.

If you read this article you'll understand the issue: http://www.androidcentral.com/nexus-devices-updated-android-43-will-now-have-trim
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lestat2308:
Thank's

Thank you very much for your advice.

Using efrant's excellent guide, I've managed to update my Android to 4.3 and rooted it.

Recently I've seen the Paranoid Android custom ROM, and I really liked it. What I wanted to ask you: is it good? I mean, when it comes to device's speed, extra options, etc.

I really wanted to install that ROM, but from what I've seen from their thread, in the matter of installation, it's kinda blurry.

Help?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lestat2308:
Bump?

Bump?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DroidOnRoids:
Paranoid Android is still in its early 4.3 development stages so it will have bugs and hiccups. I flashed it and noticed it's not up to speed as stock 4.3 so I reverted. If you don't mind the bugs and hiccups, go for it.

As for flashing it:

-Be on the latest TWRP or CWM recovery

-Wipe everything (Factory reset, cache, dalvik)

-Install ROM and then install the PA GAPPS

-Reboot
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lestat2308:
TA

Thank you very much for your advice. Well then, I guess I'll wait for PA to be "applied" for 4.3.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mfdemicco:
Try Fancy or Golden kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lestat2308:
Problem

Hi. I have a new "problem" with my Gnex.

From the past few days a notification came, which tells me to update to Android 4.3, even though I have installed it few weeks ago. It won't dissapear, no matter what I do.

Should I update to their "version", or should I ignore it?

LE: The battery started to drain reaaaaaaaaally fast.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rafa1696:
It is fix for a security issue, and it stays on 4.3. You can just disable notifications for the app which checks for updates(I forgot the name of it).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Benxter:
Hi everyone!

I have a small but annoying problem with my android phone.

In my contacts i have ~70 contacts named "(no name)" as you can see here:

If I tap on it, it shows me that it's somehow connected to Whatsapp:

Why are those entries not linked to the regular contact?

I have this problem with every ROM i use....

I can't delete those entries but the phone tells me that they will be hidden instead. Is there an easy way to fix that instead of trying to delete every single contact?

Thank you in advance.

-Ben

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sn0uu:
Nope, your not. I just rebooted my G3 and now I have these as well... :( Mine seem to be linked to outlook though (I don't have what'sapp). Im still using unrooted stock. Im not downloading something else to hide/delete these, that's going on? Why'd this happen and how do I prevent it from recurring? Thanks :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
This is most likely due to the same issue as Facebook contacts. As whatsapp is owned by Facebook and Google removed all code to sync Facebook contacts natively.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxhaase@gmail.com:
Simple solution

I had the same problem, although I haven't established which one was the offending app, I disabled contact sync for:

Microsoft Exchange

Whassap

Skype

Viber

Linkedin

Sync only with google and it works fine.

Someone ought to figure out which apps are the offending ones and let us know.

/Max
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
My guess would be it's ms exchange as that would over ride the default.

Can't say anything about whatsapp, everyone I know stopped using it years ago.

Also don't use Viper nor does anyone I know.

Linked in works fine for me.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keegancak:
Thanks so much for the fix "Delete empty contacts". I've had the same problem with the no name contacts and I would delete each one as I saw them but it was driving me nuts.

Thanks again!

HELP!

OKAY i followed it up to step 4. But i am lost on step step 5 about adding icons and changing the names to activities. Can you give me a example if the icon were for say... google drive? Thanks
[Android Themes] iamareebjamal:
As I said, find it's activity name from activities.droidicon.com and rename it accordingly as stated in guide

For eg:

Package name : com.areeb.app

Main Activity : HomeActivity

com.areeb.app.HomeActivity

So the icon name will be com_areeb_app_homeactivity.png

[Android Themes] sirjasonroberts:
Hey I notice when you're importing the Icon Project, the window shows both 'gen' and 'bin' folders. I don't get that when I'm doing it and I think this might be the reason why I always get errors after I import the folder. Any ideas or suggestions?
[Android Themes] mloc33:
I`m just not understanding how to name the icons before I add them, I`ve tried understanding it and tried what I thought where the correct names, but I`ve no idea what I`m doing.

Any chance of a video, for the complete rookies...like me?
[Android Themes] saul1991:
Yeah a video would great +1
[Android Themes] iamareebjamal:
Well, there's a good news that you don't need to rename icons in that ridiculous way now as Holo Launcher has updated it's theming engine.

I'll update the thread soon
[Android Themes] mloc33:
Updated the thread as in a video?? ;););)
[Android Themes] iamareebjamal:
I have a 16 kb/s net connection

It's not possible for me to create a video and upload.

However I can answer any questions if you have, as many times you want.
[Android Themes] mloc33:
I tried what you`ve said and nothings happening, I have`nt a clue what I`m doing....losing the will to continue.
[Android Themes] asdfasdfvful:
Just put it in the same folder and the icons and press it. A drawables.xml and icon_pack.xml should appear. That is it
[Android Themes] vanessaem:
Dude, I gave you a set of instructions that I thought would help you out...lol.
[Android Themes] mloc33:
So I did what you said, so is this how they should look?

Just a small example..

itemyoutube.png/item

itemyoutube2.png/item

item3dcube.png/item

item3dglasses.png/item

item20thcenturyfox.png/item

itemadaway.png/item

itemadd user.png/item

itemadd-file-icon.png/item

itemadidas.png/item

itemAdobe.png/item

item/item
[Android Themes] vanessaem:
I don't think you did it correctly or my instructions weren't clear(just asking so I could reword them if not)?

For example, where are these "< >"? Those angled brackets must be in your command. You almost have it correct. Just include the angled brackets before and after the word "item".
[Android Themes] Vivek_Neel:
No mate.

Syntax for writing apk names in iconpack.xml must be

For e.g adfree apk

<item>adfree</item>

Syntax for writing apk names in drawable.xml

Must be

<item drawable="adfree" />
[Android Themes] mloc33:
Cheers lads, still giving it a try, but please remember that I`m a complete noob when it comes to this, so be patient with me, thanks again, I`ll let ya`s know how I get on, but dinner first, :)
[Android Themes] vanessaem:
No worries, we're all here to help. Feel free to ask as many questions as you want. ;)
[Android Themes] mloc33:
Right, dinner finished, belly full, brain OK..ish.

Here`s what I have...

So if this is correct do I put it in drawable-hdpi as is?
[Android Themes] Vivek_Neel:
the apk names must not have gaps.

Wrong~~google search

Right~~googlesearch

No ...it must not be in drawable-hdpi ..(this is xml...must be in res/values

Mate...grab the template given in the op and import that in eclipse.

Read op well..u will understand. .

If not, sure we will help u out.

Cheers
[Android Themes] vanessaem:
1. First remove the .png from all of the names. Press CTRL-H in Notepad++ and CTRL-F in eclipse to bring up the Find/Replace Dialog. Then try this:

- Add ".png"(no parenthesis) in the "Find what" field, and leave "Replace with" field blank. Then hit "Replace All".

2. The icon_pack.xml goes into your "values" folder. Check this format and location: link

3. What size are your icons?
[Android Themes] mloc33:
I`ve been reading the OP man, but when you`ve zero experience with this, it tends to get a lot confusing at times, as I`m sure many people have been the same.

So I`ll have to go through the icon names and take the spaces out of the names, before I can go any further...
[Android Themes] Vivek_Neel:
Yes..I understand :D

No problem.

We all started off as a noob and still the same. :D
[Android Themes] mloc33:
The test pack I have are 900x900, probably not the correct size, but I read that they get resized at some stage?
[Android Themes] vanessaem:
Wow, I think you need to reduce the size of your icons. All icons that large does is increase your file to a massive size. Though the icons get resized, the files are still 900x900 in your apk. Your icons should be between 144 -200px so you basically have a reduced overall file size. Those png should go into your drawable-xxhdpi folder.

Sorry, #2 in my other post. I gave you the wrong link...lol. It's fixed now.
[Android Themes] mloc33:
I give up.
[Android Themes] vanessaem:
What happened? :confused:
[Android Themes] asdfasdfvful:
Don't give up! If you want I can give you a bunch of stock icons and their corresponding drawables for your base. I was a complete noon too when I started 2 weeks ago

Hello,

If anyone one is looking to make a dashboard app with the icon request tool combined into their icon packs, please check this thread out: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=51204879. It includes a tutorial and eclipse projects to get you started. :)
[Android Themes] vanessaem:
You won't get any errors but if the launcher isn't declared properly in the AndroidManifest.xml, the icons will not show up in your app. Did you check out this link AndroidManifest.xml?
[Android Themes] mloc33:
Thanks for the offer man, so what will I have to do if I get them off you?
[Android Themes] asdfasdfvful:
Basically, you need to build the icon pack app (we of course can help you with that) and replace the drawables, icon_pack (which I believe is iconpack in this case) and appfilter xml with my xml's every time I update.

Pros: I save you many hours and maybe 50-80% of the work by giving you ~500 icons and their corresponding activities

Cons: You only update when I update.

I'm still interested in seeing why the java file did not work for you. If you have a pc, it should be flawless...

And if you have any questions directly for me, please go on my thread. :). I'm subscribed to like 4 other threads so it's hard to keep track. Links are also there (without xml at the moment). Good luck!

[Android Themes] iamareebjamal:
They're specified as dock icons separately in some xml I can't remember name of in assets folder
[Android Themes] vanessaem:
You also have to have dock_phone.png and dock_browser.png files among your other icon pngs.

In arrays.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<string-array name="dock_backgroundlist">
<item>dock</item>
</string-array>
</resources>
[Android Themes] Pakobis:
i have to create this arrays.xml?

I changed the names of the png dialer and internet in assets>desk.xml and icons are changed, without that arrays.xml

if is it necessary, where i have to create that xml?
[Android Themes] vanessaem:
I have mine in the values folder.

You can create an arrays.xml. Just use Notepad++. Put the code in that I mentioned above and save it with the .xml file extension.

Also for the dock icons, all you needed to do was make separate files for the dock icons, like copy and paste your browser and phone icons then rename them dock_browser and dock_phone.

The desk.xml, I rarely had to go into that file for anything and whatever I had to do in there had nothing to do with the dock icons.

[ brvsn™ | Nxs7.3G stock rooted | Tapatalk.4]
[Android Themes] Eddicts:
It said there :

"Multiple annotations found at this line:

-The id "abNull" is not defined anywhere

-The is "abNull" is not referring to any views in this layouts :confused:
[Android Themes] brainvision:
As I thought, in fact, the resource does not exist.

Don't know why you are placing that object above the abNull one, but if you remove the abNull entire line your project will be fine. Then you should see if everything is in its right place!

[ brvsn™ | Nxs7.3G stock rooted | Tapatalk.4]
[Android Themes] Eddicts:
NO..I wasn't,actually i was following the instruction in the first page to create a icon pack.I didn't modified anything yet but just following the guide til suddenly this error appear.What should i do?
[Android Themes] iamareebjamal:
Strange that it does not exist.

Remove the line which is showing the error and everything will be fine as said above by brainvision
[Android Themes] Eddicts:
Okay,I'll see if i can do later.
[Android Themes] brainvision:
Oh BTW I imported the code into my Eclipse workspace and I gave it a try.. The adNull resource id doesn't exist, that's true, even if it's called by the project in the file Eddicts shown.

But to me Eclipse gives only a warning, a yellow issue which is not a fatal error! So the Edicts problem is weird!!

[ brvsn™ | Nxs7.3G stock rooted | Tapatalk.4]
[Android Themes] Eddicts:
After i deleted those whole line,Console has shown a red mark says ERROR IN AN XML FILE: ABORTING BUILD
[Android Themes] iamareebjamal:
It's my bad that I didn't remove that line from code, Sorry

But as already specified, it was not giving a complete error, just aapt warning, so must've slipped out of my mind

Now, about your error, are you sure you just deleted just these characters :

android:layout_below="@+id/abNull"

And not the "/>" ahead of it?

Having no access to PC, it won't be possible for me to update the code for some days
[Android Themes] Eddicts:
Yes but i already restored back,what shud i do now?
[Android Themes] brainvision:
look, I don't know as good as I would the code into this template, but as you can see from my screenshot there are no errors for me! All that I did is been downloading the code from github and importing it into Eclipse..

http://dl.xda-developers.com/attach.../2/6/5/9/1/8/9/scratchicontemplate_xda_01.JPG

so if for you is not the same I presume there is something wrong into your Eclipse: maybe you should update it and most important update the Android SDK Build Tools! This project uses API 17 SDK Platform (from Android 4.2.2), so be sure you have it installed.

Last but not least, when I told you about removing that line, I meant that very line and nothing more!

But from what you said it's not clear to me if you removed more than the necessary, so to be clear at all, you should only remove the line I highlighted here:

http://dl.xda-developers.com/attach.../2/6/5/9/1/9/0/scratchicontemplate_xda_02.JPG

The error you reported makes me thing you removed all the contents from the file! This is a sure way to break projects!! ;)
[Android Themes] iamareebjamal:
^This :)

Well, and make sure you don't delete the "/>" at the end of highlighted line in the screenshot by brainvision
[Android Themes] Eddicts:
Done everything as mention..but it didn't solved my problems.Gyahhh..what is goin on here..??see image i have attach
[Android Themes] iamareebjamal:
Looks like the abNull line is still present(Atleast for Eclipse) . Did you save the file after deleting it? If yes, then clean the project by going to Project > Clean. If problem persists, close Eclipse and start it again. Remember, I'm saying this when I assume that you deleted the line but it's still showing abNull not present error.
[Android Themes] Eddicts:
Done,The error has vanish.Thank You jamal and vision.But now im confused..i don't see any launchers that i can apply with this pack?how can i add one or more?
[Android Themes] iamareebjamal:
You can directly apply this icon pack to Go/Nova/Apex/Holo/Action/ADW/ADW Ex/Smart/Launcher Pro/Xperia Home Launchers without any further modifications. But you may need to add your icons in it as specified in the guide
[Android Themes] Eddicts:
I tested in my device but there were no list of those launchers.
[Android Themes] iamareebjamal:
List of Launchers?

I think you mean this app doesn't provide any UI to choose the launchers. That's true, you have to manually apply the icon pack from the Launcher itself.

The reason the UI is not present is because I just wanted to give people an idea on how to create icon packs and a very basic source (and not template) of sample icon pack so they can add whatever they want on their own. This helps icon packs have their different looks rather than lookin same. There are already many templates that are awesome like the1dynasty's or Blaze's template, but I didn't want this to be a template.

I'm sorry for the person who got low rating because of this having no UI. It never meant to have an UI. I made this guide due to the reason that I felt the lack of a centralised tutorial, and gave the scratch icon source as a basic start up example consisting of basic Icon Picker by ADW and multiple Launcher support. I could've add wallpaper and icon request support, but that would again make it a template. I can ofcourse write a guide on how to do both but the idea of making it a template defeats the sole purpose of this project

PS - This is a general answer. Don't take it personally :p

PS2 - The person who got low rating. Man, users are hard to understand. They don't get the fact that we can't please everyone. They think we are magicians and can do whatever they want, never regarding the fact that we may be absolute beginners. Once they ask for icon request feature and then rate 1 star because an icon pack wants INTERNET permission (well how do you think it's gonna send emails). Some want 500x500 px icons (ridiculous idea as Android resizes them to 144x144 nevertheless and that is max size that too on xxhdpi) and then whine about the increased size of Icon Pack. First they require Icon Pack to be able to be moved in SDCard and then give 1 stars when they can't understand why their icons get reset after reboot. They even give one star when they can't figure out how to apply the icon pack on a certain Launcher (mind that it isn't possible to create a button to apply for every Launcher). They don't even check out the replies Developer give to help them. It's so sad that their views vary so much from "The best free icon pack on Play Store" to "F*** *** no update for a month!! Don't waste your data to download it". Are 500 icons not enough? Or is it so necessary to get updates to icon packs that it'll be complete waste of data for new users to download the icon pack? Can't someone wait for a month considering that Developer has said he's having exams.

It's like raters gonna rate 1 star. There's very less you can do about it.
