[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VeEuzUKY:
Thanks a lot for the information. Will try do that. What PC tools/app I need to use to top an apk out if the ROM? Never done it before..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
You can use anything like winzip, winrar,.7zip. The roms are just zips so open them and pull out the content you edit
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VeEuzUKY:
Oh OK.. that I know then, simple. I just asked because many ROMs and flashable image zips are just full of IMGs, TARs & BINs instead of actual individual apps and files. I will download the ROMs you suggested (if I can find them) and give it a try. If works I'll post it so other members can do the same if also wanting to chang DPI on their machines. . Thanks again very much:)

Hello,

I have a Vodafone GS3 with the firmware of the vodafone, not sim locked. Is it safe to flash in another firmware? Like German DBT? Is it safe when the firmware is for the same model : I9300?

Thank you.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soma1982:
Afternoon all,

I'm quite new to the android scene so please forgive me if this sounds an obvious question.

I have a HTC one that has been rooted and unlocked the bootloader. I haven't flashed a custom ROM to the device i'm still using the original factory OS. I wanted to flash a google edition ROM to my device but decided against it as I was a bit of a novice with Android.

Anyway I have a software update available to me on my phone which I can't install because it it rooted, could anybody help me with how I can install this update or how I can Unroot my phone and lock the bootloader again so I can install it.

Many Thanks

Is this possible?

I can modify some system Apps from AOSP in Eclipse (ie. Music.apk) but when it comes in other apps like Settings.apk I got lots of errors.

I have also read this Loading source in eclipse

Any body has other advice?

Any ways of compiling single AOSP/CM apps?

Thanks :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheLiTTle:
Hello,

Recently I pull down the source code for Koushik Dutta's Superuser app. I made some changes in the source. This changes are the following:

1. SuHelper class now throws 2 kind of exceptions instead of one generic instance of Exception. I believe it is better for developing. Different exceptions, different reasons, different action to do when they are catched.

2. Fixes for several Lint's warnings.

3. Fixes in translation.

4. UI new features:

a) At the first screen you can long click at an item several actions are shown ("Allow/Deny" which changes the permission without deleting the permission, "Revoke permission", "Details" leads to the same screen as a simple click o\at an item).

b) At the details screen for every item/application and new checkbox/switch added to allow/deny superuser permission.

c) At settings screen miscellaneous settings added which refer to the pop-up dialog about the outdated su binary.

Please see the attached photos from the modified application.

I would like to ask 2 questions now:

1. Do you think that these changes are useful to you?

2. Has anyone contribute by commiting any source to this app? Should I pull the current HEAD of the from the repository or simply commit and push my changes?

Thanks in advance,

LiTTle

PS: Dear moderator's, I think that this thread fits better at "Android Software and Hacking General [Developers Only]" or "Android Software Development" but I was not able to post it there.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheLiTTle:
Still working on this

I am still working on this. New features added. I will try to post some more posts in order to move this question to the appropriate sector!

1. Minor bug fix. You can reproduce this fix by following the next steps:

-From the first screen select / click / touch an application.

-The details screen for this application is shown.

-Rotate the device.

-View the trash icon which will clear all logs. The trash menu should not appear in here.

2. Disable the countdown at Superuser Request screen. I don't like to wait. Do you?

3. Change the default position of the toast (up / center / down) when an application receives superuser privileges.

4. You can start an application from inside this application. Why only do you view the list of the applications at the first screen.? From now on, you can run them!

I downloaded the whole official repository for Superuser app, merge the changes and I created an update.zip.

Feel free to download it and and give me comments at this thread!

At least let me know that you like the changes!

PS: I just made some enhancements. The main developer is Koushik Dutta. I am not going to still reputation from him!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheLiTTle:
Bug fixes

After a little work I found a bug every time the extra actions are shown when the user does a long click at an application. This bug is only visible for tablet users. I attach the new "update.zip" file. I attach new "update.zip" file because I don't see a lot of downloads. In case more than 5 downlaods will happen I will upload it at the play store also, along

Is there a permanent fix to kill the ongoing wifi notification that shows up from time to time?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] josh995:
Go to settings, tap WiFi, tap the 3 dots in the upper right corner, select "advanced," and uncheck "notify me."
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] crazyg0od33:
that doesnt do it. I've got it unchecked but that notification is still there. unchecking it does, however, stop apps from telling you there's wifi around
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] josh995:
That's what I figured they were talking about. If you don't want any wifi notifications at all then you will have to flash custom roms that have it disabled, if you are unlocked.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Thefireballkid:
No permanent fix yet, but long press the notification, then select app info, then force close will prevent it until the next reboot. Works well enough for me.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] trust2me:
Thank y'all for your response.

[MENTION=3606978]Thefireballkid[/MENTION]: That's what I have been doing. Since One is still being played around, its rebooted (at least once a day) and that wifi-notification pop-up is very annoying. Anyway, thanks for confirming.

P.S. am on bonestock ROM, so I guess I should request [MENTION=2586080]andybones[/MENTION] to take care of this Verizon's bug/feature :p However, being a new member, am not allowed to post/request in the VHO Android Development thread.

Hi all.

My wife has a note 2 and the screen got cracked (not the digitiser) Not insured and I wasn't about to pay £289 cheeky gits lol.

I got a replacement screen and followed a youtube tutorial on how to replace.

I got the glass off fine and have put the screen on but keep getting an air bubble appear. I've tried different adhesives and still the same... Has anyone else come across this or is anyone able to shed some light on a solution.

Thanks for your time.

And yes I made it kind of hybrid with a black home button... Completely by mistake ha ha (when ordering make sure you get the right colour... Duh)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FloatingFatMan:
Yes, there's a solution. Spend millions on a specially designed cleanroom and laminating equipment.

If you can't manage that, your choice are:

a) Live with the bubble

b) Spend the $289 for a proper sealed unit

Sorry dude.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaffa1980:

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AaronEmoBoi:
So I purchased last week on Wednesday a nexus 4 and assuming that because i paid for two day shipping to get it by Friday or Tuesday at the latest (Tuesday because of labor day)

But it is now Wednesday of the following week and still no Nexus 4 and I cannot use to tracking number as all UPS says on the status of the shipment is "Ready for UPS" I'm at a loss of what to do because I finalized my cancellation with previous carrier Monday and got service with T-Mobile :/ but no phone....sadface

Any suggestions as to why UPS is being like this?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bozzykid:
2-day shipping only means once it is shipped it will take 2 days. It does not account for processing time which can be several days. If you have a shipping number then you should get it in the next day or two. The UPS shipping status does not update until later at night in many cases.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AaronEmoBoi:
They sent me an email stating it shipped the Thursday after I ordered it :o and that still doesn't help the fact that I cannot track the package a week after its been shipped :c

[Xperia Z1 General] Super Chimp:
Looks to be using the new screen technology as seen on the Ultra & that looks a good reason to swap alone. Large camera sensor & 4.3 out of the box is impressive too. I was debating about getting a Z but glad I held off now.

[Xperia Z1 General] DoubleYouPee:
It's not 4.3 out of the box.. At least not on the hands-on's available.

Also.. just the screen technology reason alone to update? Are you kidding me? It's the same screen as Z/ZL but with different software.. maybe different panel.

And what's wrong with Z/ZL screen? Still after months of usage I think it looks really great..better than HTC one for me.

Anyway.. I think it's too big either way

[Xperia Z1 General] Apollo89:
No offence, but people who swap a phone after such a short period of usage, are freaks :eek:

While the Xperia Z was a big improvement over the previous flagship, I think the Xperia Z1 can be compared to the 'S' models of iPhones (iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4S, etc.): roughly the same model, but with some small improvements (usually CPU and camera). Generally speaking, it's better to wait for a completely new model, than to buy such an 'S' model, because that will be outdated more quickly.
[Xperia Z1 General] keith777:
I want to know what the deal is for the U.S.........Sony says will release this month. OK - on what carriers, anyone in the U.S.?? AT&T?? They could have put out some more detailed info like HTC did when they released the One
[Xperia Z1 General] shem2409:
Not quite mate. Usually the "S" updates from Apple get just software improvements and a slight GPU or CPU bump.

Here we get a much improved:

-GPU (dubbed 50% faster by Sony),

-much improved CPU Snapdragon 800 is the best processor in the world right now,

-redesigned casing for true premium aluminum feel, with a dedicated camera button, and a new speaker placement

-22% greater battery should be a great improvement

- a brand new camera lens with new stabilisation technologies

-new display with Triluminos technology

I would not call all of the above a mere "S" update

Yes, same what apple and samsung does every year. Minor update unless u play games on your smartphone. My battery lasts for more then 12 h witch is 40 calls and about 50 msgs every day and I still have 20% left when back home. Camera is fine for me and I dont fell any slow downs or hangs while using XZ. Yes if u are a tech freak sure this might be a major update, most people would be happy to stay with XZ for a while.

---------- Post added at 05:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:34 PM ----------

The only thing worth updating is the new camera but it will not justify the price diference when u sell XZ to get X1. For 100 or 150 pounds u can get a nice camera few times better then in any smartphone.
[Xperia Z1 General] shem2409:
I do agree with you that for an average user the upgrade is not gonna be very significant. Judging by the fact we are discussing this at xda-developers forums I am not taking you for an average user. I am not saying I am gonna upgrade as soon as it comes out but maybe wait a month or so for the price to decline. Xperia Z is a great piece of hardware though.
[Xperia Z1 General] MinedSafe:
Lets just wait and see for some reviews and maybe demo models at the carrier shops. Maybe I will decide to change as well but first I need to put my hands on it:) The price should drop after 3 months from release date. Till then we would know everything about it. I also hope that Sony will still support XZ in future.
[Xperia Z1 General] the_mouse_bg:
I wonder if they fixed the waterproofness of the phone, since xperia z had issues after some time. Interestingly enough, the frame seems to have a plastic "ring" on the top and the bottom wich was not evident on the xperia z. Wonder if it's there to keep the back plate from lifting? Bu that's just an assumption.

All in all, the z1 is rated ip58, which is higher than z's ip57.
[Xperia Z1 General] eagle25884:
I will definitly not switch to Z1.

I like my XZ C6603 as it is now, the given Features are good enough this time.

As Apollo mentioned, better to wait for a completely new one.

Nevertheless the Z1 is a good step forward (Battery 3000 mAh :good:).
[Xperia Z1 General] Super Chimp:
Will you swap to the Z1?

I thought it was using the same screen technology as the Ultra with the wider viewing angles that brings?

Sorry all about saying it came with 4.3 out the box as I thought that's what I had read in the initial articles.
