To to the hybrid properties in the quick settings and make sure the size bar is on 320 and the layout is on 360P.

If you are on tablet UI then that could be why.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Globespy:
thanks. yup, those are the stock settings. I haven't touched any of the hybrid stuff.

any other suggestions?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoolApps:
Wiping seems the option but of course make a backup with Titanium Backup, actually in fact flash PA 3.99 which came out a few hours ago which has ALOT of fixes, supports JWR66Y kernel for bug fixes and performance and also a new floating notification feature so you can just make a backup and flash away like what I am doing right now.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
could be that those apps need to get updated for android 4.3
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoolApps:
Nope, PayPal works fine for me.

The apps must be mis-detecting the device UI settings or something.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
have you tried going to the phones main settings, apps, finding those apps, then clearing their data, or uninstalling them and reinstalling?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Globespy:
Already did clean install of PA3.99 today - problem still persists.

yes, done all this.

Did you apply ANYTHING to the rom such has tweaks?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Globespy:
tweaks? such as? I don't think so. pretty normal install, lightflow, system panel, titanium, trust&go antivirus etc.

the only tweaks I do are through FauxClock kernel manager and I have never had any issues in the past with these.

I'm really only seeing these issues since moving to PA (was on cataclysm), and changing my daily browser to opera classic. I can't see how any of these would cause this issue?

thanks for your help thus far.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
pa might be the issue?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoolApps:
The Cataclysm rom must of left some files over.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
roms dont leave files over, unless it had an init.d file. but ive never heard of any file doing this, especially one that would be used in the init.d folder.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Globespy:
Hmmm...I have TWRP and did a factory wipe, plus an additional advanced wipe (cache, dalvik and system).

Would a full data wipe be necessary?

I can't recall if Wugfresh's tool kit has the ability to flash a ROM zip from the connected computer, or allows the copy of a ROM zip from the connected computer?

Another thing. if I run a full data wipe from within TWRP, will it keep root and TWRP?

what does that have to do with gmail not opening the right app?

---------- Post added at 01:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:49 PM ----------

full data wipe yes. itll only wipe your data. but the rom/kernel/root doesnt change.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Globespy:
Any suggestions other than nuking my phone? I also don't think it's the PA ROM, or the faux kernel. Otherwise others would have seen issues by now?

Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoolApps:
It can be either in the persist folder or other folders.

Unfortunately even a full reflash or wipe does not help.

Anyway try going back to 4.2.2.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Globespy:
I did not know that! I thought data wipe in TWRP wiped everything, ROM, Kernel, plus all the apps, folders etc?

so it will essentially leave a fresh install of the ROM, gapps and kernel and when I boot it will go through the normal Google setup?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Globespy:
Why would going back to 4.2.2 help if everyone else on PA and other 4.3 ROMs have no such issue?

Sorry, the 4.2.2 idea confuses me?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
yup, the normal setup, like a new phone. only with your rom, kernel, root. your regular apps will need to be reinstalled. dont wipe your partitions, thatll remove your rom. but its better to reflash your rom/gapps/kernel/su after a data wipe/factory reset just in case something corrupts.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoolApps:
Try using my properties.conf file.

http://caftp.3owl.com/File_Upload_Admin/Files/properties.conf

Replace it in /system/etc/paranoid/ and also chmod 644 via ADB or Terminal Emulator.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Globespy:
I have terminal emulator.

so to be clear I should replace the contents of my properties.conf file with yours? Is your file from PA3.99 (what I'm running)?

And then just go to terminal emulator, type 'su' then enter, then your chmod 644?

thanks.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoolApps:
Make sure you have PA 3.99.

So all you do is delete and replace that file and do the following in terminal emulator:

su

adb shell mount -o rw,remount /system

chmod 644 /system/etc/paranoid/properties.conf

reboot

That is all, report back afterwards. ;)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Globespy:
Ok, so I think I made a mistake.

I changed the name of the properties.conf file using a text editor so that I could then copy it as a backup before replacing all the info with yours.

However doing this broke the android keyboard, meaning I couldn't change back the filename.

So I thought I'd reboot the phone and USB connect to my computer where I could access the properties.conf backup and change it back to normal name, then reboot and copy it back across. However when I rebooted the UI was also broken, so I could do nothing with the phone!

So I manually booted into TWRP and performed a full wipe (cache, system, data, dalvik and that usb thing - which by the way always fails when I try to wipe it, I don;t even know what it's for).

Ok, so I then made sure by wiping EVERYTHING 2 more times.

However, when I clicked the 'Install' button in TWRP I could navigate to the folder I created called 'downloads', and to my surprise all my data was still there! The PA3.99 zip and the latest gapps. So I just reinstalled both and the phone booted like it normally would on a fresh install.

Now here's the even more screwed up thing - ALL MY DATA is still there. My music, my photos, old app folders -everything.

So wiping 'data' wipe in TWRP does not in fact do anything at all?

At least now I can check if say a linked in email actually defaults (or at least gives me the option) of opening in the linked in app.

If it doesn't, then I will try your config data and report back.

I'm at a loss!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoolApps:
When you wipe your data it will wipe everything in the data partition except /data/media/ unless you wipe the internal storage.

I would do the following via ADB with the configuration file on your internal storage:

adb shell

su

adb shell mount -o rw,remount /system

rm /system/etc/paranoid/properties.conf

mv /sdcard/where_ever_you_have_placed_the_file/properties.conf /system/etc/paranoid/properties.conf

chmod 644 /system/etc/paranoid/properties.conf

reboot

You can do this either in the OS or recovery, recovery is the best option so put it on recovery before entering these commands.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Globespy:
Sorry, never really done a lot at this level.

I replaced the properties.conf file with the one I downloaded from your link.

Then I tried to do the commands using the terminal emulator in the OS, but it didn't recognize the adb shell part, so I made sure that the properties.conf file was read,write and executable and that my file manager was in read and write mode before trying the commands from chmod onwards. I keep getting the error that it's read only despite me making sure it's not?

As for your advice that I'm best doing this in recovery, I rebooted into TWRP and then advanced, then terminal command and tried to browse to the system/etc/paranoid/properties.conf however in system there is only one folder called 'bin'.

I then tried the ADB Sideload command, but it just hangs trying to do something then I have to press cancel and it says 'failed'.

Also, every time I try and mount my phone (USB connection to my PC) it says 'unable to mount ' /usb-otg' - I don't see who I can work with ADB when my phone won't mount?

I have the correct drivers installed as I can browse my phone when it's booted in the OS - just not when it's in recovery?

Any idea?

Sorry for all the questions - I appreciate your help, this is a new area for me.

Thanks.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Globespy:
I downloaded a tool from XDA - minimal ADB and fastboot.

Enabled USB debugging in developer options in my phone.

My phone is connected to my PC and I can go through folders etc.

When I type adb shell in the terminal (from this minimal adb program I just installed that opens a terminal on my PC) it says device not found?

Same thing from the terminal emulator on my phone - it says daemon has started successfully but then:

error: device not found

1|uo_a125@mako:/ $
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoolApps:
Try adb kill-server and then adb start-server then try again.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Globespy:
ok it now says daemon started successfully and command line shows:

root@mako:/ #

But when I type adb shell it says device not found again and the command line changes to:

1|root@mako: / # su

Am I doing something wrong?

Ok guys, looks like a PA bug.

It is where that some applications are missing from its categories.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Globespy:
It's a bug in PA!!!

After working with andre (thank you so much for all your time on IM and this thread), it is definitely a bug in the PA ROM and will be raised to moles. He experienced the exact same thing.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
im glad the "bug" was found, i hope it gets fixed for you :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Globespy:
Thank you also for your suggestions and help - it's great to know that there are some truly helpful people on here.

It's a pretty big bug - basically gmail is not communicating with related mobile apps - including the XDA app. A gmail with an XDA link should give me the option of opening it in the already opened XDA mobile app, but it's not even an option.

Hopefully moles will rectify as it's kinda significant ;)

Actually the XDA app never appeared in the first place in the stock rom and such.

They seem different than the way TouchWiz ROMs are calibrated. More accurately to say the least. Whites in the browser are significantly brighter, making them more white and don't have that yellow tint to them TW ROMs do. Or am I just crazy?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] GGXtreme:
I do think the screen is tuned differently. Unlike with TouchWiz where you have different screen modes for different accuracy, vividness and color temperature, the GPE is just locked at Google's stock tuning.

Hello, my question is about multitasking, im pretty new to android's can and can not do.

Im listening alot on youtube through my stock or chrome browser, but it always stop playing if i open another window using (+). Pc dosent behave like that, or is it a setting to it?

Hope you understand what i mean by this.

Edit: answer myself, just use freedi youtubbe app :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] huy_lonewolf:
It is the standard behavior and the limitation of Android stock browser. Any flash-based streaming services running in the stock browser will stop working the moment you switch to another tab or another app. With Chrome, audio streaming service will still work in the background, so you might want to avoid videos.

[Asus Transformer TF700] Felborn:
Right, I'm having issues with wifi on my Cromi-X 4.6 TF700. Battery drain is usually over 90% on wifi, and signal seems very low even when just a few meters from the accesspoint. What really pisses me of, is that I get neighboors wifi's at about the same signallevel, some of them on the other side of the street, while i'm getting a poor signal from my Apple airport express is sitting just a hands reach away from my tabel. I have tried moving the accesspoint, and also used a old d-link gameloung router to see if that helped, but signal strenght and battery drain seems to be about the same.

Since I'm seeing neightboors wifi, I somewhat doubth there's and actuall hardware issue. I have tried moving channels on the accesspoint, but that seems to have minimal impact.

Any advice on a good accesspoint that seems to work really well with the TF700?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
I don't think it's actually the WiFI draining the battery more like you have lots of active apps using wifi when the machine is sleeping thus wifi is kept on. Download WakeLock Detector from google play to see what is keeping the device awake over a period of time.

Also try wifi analyser as well and see which channel it recommends. Wifi channels get pretty congested these days and it could be as simple as that.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Felborn:
Wakelock downloaded, will see what that tells me. I have tried changing the channel, but it has no or little effect. Just from my small neighboorhood I can see 10+ Wifi's from my livingroom, so yeah it's congested alright.

Am I right in beliving that power consumption goes up when signal levels drop?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Yeah but try wifi analyser it maps out your neighbourhood by channel and will show you.

Yes if it is having to work harder to stay connected then you coukd see power cosumption go up. Try wifi fixer from the play store as well. I use it on my prime and it works wonders as that has a much weaker signal.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Felborn:
Have been running wakelock for about 14 hours now, all triggers are at 1% so that seems okay. Google play music seems chatty, otherwise not much. How much battery drain % does the wifi normally show? I use my tablet for surfing, forum and mail only, so wifi is running constantly on use.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Much more than what is realistic - I believe the numbers that Asus uses there are simply wrong.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrwhite0732:
Hey there!

So here's my situation: I recently got rid of a Rogers cellphone plan and decided to sell my GS3. Someone I know, immediately showed interest and decided to buy it from me. Good! At that moment, the device was locked to Rogers and was running stock Samsung GS3 (SGH-i747M) firmware.

That person decided to play with the phone, try to root it, flash Cyanogenmod or whatever it may be, and having failed several times, he decided to return the phone and get his money back. I shouldn't have accepted to reimburse him knowing how much he fiddled with it but I did.

Anyways too late now. The good thing is that I believe the phone is 100% functional (it boots, runs perfect and under system info shows everything as usual except under Status > Device Status, it shows modified.

I am not 100% sure of that what means but I believe it has something to do with a modified ROM or something like that.

That person supposedly unlocked the device because he was with another carrier.

Now I am putting the phone in the classifieds. Obviously I would like to have the phone back to 100% factory settings and ROM, no aftermarket stuff whatsoever BUT I'd like to keep it unlocked (if that's possible).

That way, it will be easier to resell.

So here's my questions:

What does "Device Status: Modified" really means?

How can I find out if the phone has been altered in any ways?

If it has been altered, is there a LINUX based procedure to restore EVERYTHING back to factory?

If I restore whatever has to be restored, will it re-lock the device?

As you can see, I am a total noob in that field. I would appreciate if someone can help me to prepare this device to be resold.

I don't want to cause any problems to anyone, that wouldn't be fair.

I appreciate. Thanks!!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jimchee:
Okay a lot of questions, you can download the stock firmware from Samsung updates and if it is rooted you can get triangle away on the play store and reset the counter the using kies or the Samsung galaxy s3 toolkit from mskip's to flash the original firmware, your phone should be unlocked as none of the procedures should/could reloj the simple card
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrwhite0732:
Ok I have verified with an app called Root Checker Basic, and it said that the device wasn't rooted. I wonder if this is reliable.

I wiull check mskip's toolkit or Kies to restore the stock firmware.

What a pain..

Thanks jimchee for replying!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jimchee:
Actually it's pretty easy but you can probably sell it just as easy if it's rooted and that way you can clear the counter, there is also a post in the Samsung sIII THREAD for AT&T that will walk you through restoring to stock, just make sure you download the file for your device the link is also in the att thread, if you have any trouble pm me and I can help, I am just a tinkerer but been doing it since my 1st original Motorola Droid
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] fffft:
Probably the easiest approach would be to look for the Samsung S3 V7.0 toolkit post. This is a flash (programming) tool. It would easily root your phone if it needs that. Then you can use the app referred to earlier to reset the phone to an "unmodified" status.

Then finally go to the Samsung updates site as suggested and flash the phone with a stock Rogers firmware. I'd recommend a 4.1.1. version. Probably your phone will still be unlocked at this point. But if not, the stock v 4.1.1. Rogers firmware will allow you to unlock it again from an onscreen menu (search for "S3 unlock code *#197328640#"). And your phone will report an unmodified status at the end.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] blackmoor2000:
Give this a shot.........works well. I've used it a number of times on both my phones ( SH-I747M/SH-I747 )
