[General Questions and Answers] parkhaus:
I am looking for a launcher or an app for the following purpose:

I have a Nexus 7 tablet with a broken digitizer, only half of the touchscreen works anymore.

I want to put it in a central place in my apartment (with a charger attached), where it is supposed to show changing widgets with useful information. Like current weather, latest headlines, stock market news, latest photos, etc.

A widget with ALL that information does not help - the text size would be too small. I would need a launcher with about 5 pages, where I put 1 or 2 widgets on each page, but it also needs to change pages every x seconds by its own.

I have also googled other possibilities like Daydream, Screensavers, Demo mode, but have not found a good solution yet for my purpose.

Anybody with an idea? The idea with using a tablet as an "information stand" is not so bad, isn't it?
[General Questions and Answers] parkhaus:
Here is the solution to that problem: Tasker!

This app is very powerful. I have a profile with the contexts: Time Repeat every 2 minutes, and State Power "AC".

then a task is run, consisting of: App GoHome Screen 1, Task Wait 5 seconds, App GoHome Screen 2, Task Wait 5 Seconds, and so on.

Hello comminity

I have a N4 using Carbon Rom and with 4G LTE active and running. Today I ran into an issue where my tethering is routing my laptop to a tmobile landing page asking me to change my plan. Anyway around this?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Huge Fandroid:
Interesting. I wonder how they're detecting non-mobile access.

You might try User Agent Switcher with Firefox or Chrome and then set it to a mobile user agent string. Sorry, I'd post links, but the dumb-ass forum won't let me.

The carrier is detecting that you are tethering and want you to buy the tethering plan...I would stop because they will tack that extra money for the tethering onto your bill if you don't buy the plan. I am unaware of a way around it
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mike102871:
Write a new APN . which will eliminate the hidden settings in the stock APN. Look in the gs3 forum for ways around teather detection. Then apply it to your nexus. IT WORKS. I just LTE tethered a lot last 2 days while out of town. Convert this app 2 a system app and write new apn with it.

Do you mean just copy the existing APN info into a new listing, or create one with different settings? If the latter, which should I use?

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] LxMxFxD:
I have a note 1 GT-N7000 and almost never talk on my cell phone - I use my Gvoice VOIP for that with a real home phone. However, there will be times I'll need to talk on a cell phone.

Anyone have any idea if or how this might be workable on a nexus 7 lte with say, the T-mo $30 walmart plan (100 minutes a month, 5GB data)? I know that there are VOIP app options like GrooveIP but that has really sucked for me in the past. I doubt there will be a voice mic on the nexus 7 LTE but bluetooth would work. The only problem I see is there not being a native dialer?

Is this somewhat possible or is this a hopeless endeavor?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] LxMxFxD:
Anyone? Bueller, bueller?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sml12:
probably a lack of response as there are 2 or 3 current threads with responses in the past 24 hrs.

there is a microphone.

you can make VOIP calls via speaker method.

i installed a dialer from the playstore and could not make calls.

i installed GO SMS PRO from the playstore and SMS work perfectly.

i installed LINE & WHAT'S APP and they work fine.

my voice calling relies on skype:

OUTGOING - using on using skype Caller ID to identify my usual Australian mobile phone number

INCOMING - calls to my Australian mobile phone number are forwarded to my Australian skype number

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] immortel_la:
well today i've installed Go SMS on my N7 LTE n i was able to receive and even send SMS (real SMS through mobile carrier network, not the OTT service).

I've also tried to install Go contacts, which has a dialer to test the phone call ability but no luck, N7 didn't seem to catch the call although i could still hear bip bip through my phone (which call the N7' sim)

conclude: n7 can go texting just fine, but can't make a call. i don't know if developers can solve the latter.

hi guys

i am using google keyboard and love it.

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] daviefl86:
DEFAULT THEMES hack

If you use the stock Android keyboard, which is also available in the Play Store, you can change the look and feel of the keyboard. Google Keyboard has a few themes you can choose, but they're not available in the settings.

Here's a quick way to pick a different theme, assuming your device runs Android 4.0 or later:

1. you first need an application that lets you create shortcuts to app activities. Some apps that let you do that: Nova Launcher and Apex Launcher, probably the best Android launchers. The following instructions assume you've installed Nova Launcher or Apex Launcher, but you can also use simple apps like Activity Getter.

2. long press the homescreen and pick "shortcuts" and then "activities".

3. scroll to the Google Keyboard entry, expand the list of activities and pick "Android keyboard debug settings".

4. you'll create a shortcut for this activity. Tap the new shortcut and you should see this settings page:

5. tap "Keyboard theme" and pick one of the themes: Basic, Basic (High Contrast), Stone (normal), Stone (bold), Gingerbread. IceCreamSandwich is the default theme.

6. use the shortcut you've created to change the theme.

I am currently using an ipad to take notes in school but thinking to trade it with a note 8.0.

But there is one thing I can't figure out, when some handwritten text yes put down or a figure drawed isn't it possible to select and move it and resize it in s-note? Or is there an other maybe better note taking app I need instead of s-note, I am currently using notesplus on my iPad which doesn't exist on Android :(

If it is only shapes that you need why don't you use the insert shape feature that is movable and re sizable. ..Use .....idea s note
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] lanwarrior:
I like the feature where S Notes will transform the shape into a proper one. I.e. nice rounded circle instead of my chicken scratch that looks more like an egg. :D

Yes, but it takes too much tapping. See above...this is one of the greatest feature of S Notes and make note taking far easier, mimicking real life note taking in paper.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A14n:
Hi all, I'm having problems accessing apps/games on Google Play. Games like N.O.V.A 3, say incompatible with your device.

I am from the UK, but the S4 Mini I have (GT-I9190) does not have any United Kingdom firmware. Where as the LTE version does.

Is there anything I can do other than wait for UK firmware... Will Samsung ever release any for this phone? Or am I totally screwed. :(:confused:

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eradica:
Just had a look, it is indeed the developer and not the UK region. NOVA 3 is incompatible with the I9190.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A14n:
Is there any way around this, like editing the Build.prop file? Why is it that the I9195 is compatible and the I9190 is not. When they are the same phone apart from the LTE on the I9195. It's really frustrating me. The I9190 needs more support! :(
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whosat:
Ask the developer. They may just not be aware that there are 3 variants of the S4 Mini and therefore assumed that just supplying one model number would enable it for all S4 Mini variants.

Developers don't own all phones so they do sometimes rely on customer feedback for things to change :)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] TeflonTron:
Hey guys.

I bought my XdaIIs almost a year ago, but have had no need to use the WiFi until quite recently. I'm with O2 on the 200 Plan (light user) and everything works fine with the phone, including the GRPS: apart from the WiFi. When the phone was sold to me I was told very clearly, and on multiple occasions, that if I can pick up a WiFi signal, and that it's free, then I can connect and browse for free. However, when I tried this at a Coffee House that had free access I could only connect via one of two of O2's "Gateway Partners" and they wanted to charge me for this, which I find outrageous! Can someone confirm to me whether this is correct, as O2 told me that I have to be a "Business User" on a Business Plan to get free WiFi, and that the fact that the phone has WiFi doees not mean that they support it!

If the above is the case, is there anyway around this, such as unlocking the phone, or connecting via a completely different network? I just find it galling that O2 can mis-sell me the phone on the basis that I can connect via WiFi "anywhere and anytime for free" and then to be told that this isn't the case.

Thanks in advance.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
Since you're S-Off, you could write SuperCID (fastboot oem writecid 11111111) and then download CIDGetter from Google Play. When CIDGetter sees SuperCID, it will load your CID from a second location which should be your original CID.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] volodoscope:
Thank you! I got the app. It doesn't show any CID on top, which means it's super CID? But in the text later on there's a line that shows GOOGL001, BS_US001. So I have no idea why the sim is locked. And I can't use the t-mobile RUU because I just get error 170, USB not connected, but it is recognized by the PC.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] austriak:
That CID is the unlocked version (bu-us001). There are a couple other things that can give you a hint.

Does the OEM box have any carrier logos on it? This would be on the top right corner of the front of the box. Is there a carrier logo on the back of the phone.

If your answers are no, it is the unlocked version whose Cid is bu-us001 and the model number is PN07120.

If the Google logo is on the front of the box in the top right corner, it is a Google edition.

If it is unlocked, not sure why it is not working for you.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
If you change to SuperCID using fastboot:

fastboot oem writecid 11111111

Then CIDGetter will show the original CID at the top. (nevermind what it says in the text)

You can always go back to Google Edition by

fastboot oem writecid GOOGL001

AS LONG AS YOU STAY S-OFF.

Also, once you are SuperCID and S-Off you can flash any RUU, BUT I'm pretty sure that flashing a new RUU will not help with the SIM-Lock.

Try the SuperCID first, then get info from CIDGetter, and we'll proceed from there. So far there's no indication it's a T-Mobile phone... Yet.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] volodoscope:
I did that. Changed to SuperCID, opened the app and there's nothing on top. I saw it app preview screenshots that it supposed to show in red text, but I don't have anything on top.

The thing is I don't have the box from this phone. There aren't any logos on phone itself. I'm just so confused about it, because everything points that it is Google Edition but somehow the SIM is locked.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] volodoscope:
Here's the clue. I just looked in the back of the phone. There's a Model number: PN07130 which is T-Mobile model. So I think this is t-mobile for sure. I can't find any stock ROM that would make it t-mobile again, maybe if I have original ROM I can enter the SIM unlock code.

To go back you will need to change the MID back and relock the boot loader and flash the T-Mobile RUU that came out. Then try the SIM unlock..

But honestly before trying that go to the T-Mobile section and flash a rooted stock ROM and try it out.

It appears you practically have my phone. Its a T-Mobile fully converted to the GPE except for the numbers on the tail of the phone
