Status bar color

Is there any way, to change the color of the status bar? I mean I love the black background color in the launcher, but if I start any application, the status bar's color changing. It would be great, if it can be set to stick to the black color. I suppose it's background is transparent in some way.

Ok, people must be getting bored of my standard MMS pictures..

It's either a camera picture or one of the ones in the ZIP file..

So this is what I thought we should do:

Most of us have a folder where we stick our MMS animations and gif images.

Now, ZIP it up, and post here..

This way, my friends won't have to be bored to tears by the same old pictures any more..

The posted ZIP file contains 148 images, all "looted" from telenormobil.no (My mobile operator)

---- EDIT ----

I found some more in a backup folder..

Maybe we should post warnings on nudity and such..

Don't want anyone to get offended here, now do we..

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] JackHanAnLG:
Hey guys, I recently posted a link where the Carphonewharehouse were offering the P6 for £239.95 which is a steal! it was on sale for no longer then 2 weeks and it went up too £309.95, to me this seems like a lot of money for a phone that is in a mid range market, you can get the Galaxy S3 for £290 brand new

I know its made out of aluminum and its thin and beautiful, but it doesnt compete with the likes of the Galaxy S3 in benchmarks ( I do prefer the P6 though, due to its smooth UI and thin body )

I then noticed you can get some of todays top flagship phones for around the same price

HTC One - £290-£360 depending on condition

Xperia Z £265 - £300 depending on condition

Galaxy S4 - £300 - £360 depending on conditon

What do you guys think? There processors, Displays and build quality are all better and are this years specs where as the P6's are last years.

Im debating weather or not to get the Xperia Z or HTC One over the P6 just because they have 1080p displays and better processors, but then the P6 calls to me because of the smooth UI and thinness

From personal experience Ascend P6 > Xperia Z, except if you want the LTE and the water-restance on your phone.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] daryltanael:
The xperia z definitely got better specs, but its huge! :D p6 is more one hand and pocket friendly
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] rupro327:
I have my P6 since 2 weeks, before I had a galaxy s2. After the P6, my old Galaxy S2 feels so cheap.

At first I want a HTC one, but the feeling of it wasnt so nice as the P6.

Personally I think benchmark are not representative about the Perfomence of the Device. I choose the P6 because I dont play huge games like Real Racing or Modern Combat, I play games like Temple Run or Hill Climp Racing. The P6 runs very smooth, and the Battery life is awesome.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] warea:
I had the same debate before buying. But i wasn't into S3 which my dad uses and i simply don't like Samsung UI anymore, nor the size. And i don't like the Xperia Z either in terms of size. My contender was with the Xperia ZR. But for several personal reasons i didn't go for it :

1) although i found it for lesser price in many online shops, yet on the ground market in my place, it was way higher by 140$. So not really an immediate buy.

2) The phone doesn't feel or look as great or premium as the p6

3) I got no use with those bravia engines or gaming performance because i don't really watch movies or play powerful games on the mobile. (there is talk that gaming problems are because of optimization and can be fixed)

4) I have used the Sony interface on other mobiles and also my brothers new xperia z ultra and to me it was like the same old empty-ish Sony interface with some very minute changes, hence i felt i would be quickly bored by it. While the P6 instead has a difference experience with plenty of simple but smart features, at least for me.

At the end of the day, it all depends upon what exactly would you use your phone most for. Both has it pros and cons and you'd have to make the choice depending on what cons you would be able to tolerate.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] JackHanAnLG:
I still have to go with the P6, Ive watched so many videos of the smooth and customizable UI, it just has everything that my Galaxy S3 doesnt, especially the build quality, metal over plastic anyday for me.

I just cant get over the price £309.95 when it was £239.95, you could argue and get a Nexus 4 with change to spare. I might just have to buy a pre owned P6 just to get over that price tag
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] GalaxySIIII:
p6 all the way .. that thickness.. mmm very slim .. can be smartphone be even slimmer? :D
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] JackHanAnLG:
Huawei said that they could have made it thinner but the 3.5mm headphone jack is a industry standard and thats why that cant make it thinner, although they could make a 2.55mm headphone jack and make specific earphones that are included to have a smaller pin?

Or make an adapter thats smaller ?

to be fair i like how slim it is now, i wouldnt want it any slimmer :P
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] GalaxySIIII:
aah alright .. i think android requires that 3.5 yes .. there are jacks even smaller yes but android industry prob wont allow that..

there are even bigger audio jacks for 2.5 , 3.5 and 6.36 for guitars or guitar speakers etc.. theoretically they COULD use 2.5 mm jack hmm .. we could find out..

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] mkstevo:
I had (still have) a Sony Xperia Z, but didn't much care for it. No specific reason, it just failed to inspire me. The P6 I think is superb. Best 'phone I've had since my HTC HD Mini.

Long before the HD Mini, I had a Samsung XGH-X820, then classed as the world's thinnest 'phone (there is a theme here) being only 6.9mm at it's narrowest and it had a long connector for the headphones that might have doubled for the charging socket. I presume Samsung fitted this to enable them to make the 'phone thinner. Of course, to use anything other than the supplied headphones, you needed an adaptor. As the 'phone only had around 80Mb of memory and getting media on and off was a nightmare, this never became much of a problem.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thireg:
Hi

I have a European HTC One, with stock HTC HBOOT 1.54.

TWRP 2.6.3.0

And I flashed a pure GPE 4.3 ROM with no root.

Like many people I got the last OTA notification.

When I try to install it. It gets stuck at the end of the reboot countdown (in the system).

Can I do this security update?

Maybe by doing it through TWRP? It is a minor update so it should be OK, no?

Thanks for your help.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
You need the stock recovery to flash the OTA
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thireg:
You mean the HTC stock recovery or the GPE stock recovery?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
GPe, you can get it in the GPe RUU thread
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thireg:

Can't I install the update with another method?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Nope. You could download the OTA file, copy it to the internal memory and flash it from the stock recovery manually and see if that works. Worked fine for me the other day (but I've since gone back to Sense)

[AT&T LG Optimus G] Chocolina:
Mind you I temporary bricked them, but I've yet to this day tried rooting a phone, and never had things go smoothly.

Any guide I try to follow just so happens to be the wrong one, or isn't thorough enough in its directions... Theres always some missing software, or missing details on what to do when you hit a road block, so here is my story so someone can point me in the right direction...

I bought this LG Optimus G LS970 on eBay, and apparently it was already rooted, and it had some sprint apps on it so I guess its the sprint version of the phone. Anyways I notice there are some photos on the phone, so start plugging in the the phone to my pc only to find that i cant access files.... I google some questions, start holding buttons trying to get into whatever boot or recovery mode or some mode i dont understand.

Turns out I got something called Team Win Recovery Project v2.6.0.0 flashed on my phone.... I don't quite get what all these options are, but all I see are wipe options and I'm thinking "Hey this will get me back to factory settings and maybe i can flash a barebones android jellybean whatever (I dont know what os is called on a phone) So I start checking boxes and wiping things...

I soon find out that my device is telling me I don't have an OS. Of ****ing course it doesn't. I realized I just deleted it, because it told me I deleted it.

Well atleast I still have this recovery dohicky so not all is lost.

I start reading unbick guides, and of course I dont know what they mean, I just download every link they tell me to and run them. I install "drivers" and even then, when I plug the phone into my PC, I still get "Did not install" popups even if "LGUnitedMobileDriver_S4981MAN38AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.8.1" said it installed correctly....

I open up this Original LG Firmware thing, and asks for my phone's model and serial number... Just what the hell is my phone's model? eBay listing said E973, the back of the phone says LS970, that useless mobile tool that wont let me download additional drivers says its called LG-LS970, and google results call it LGLS970....

And of course I don't know my phones serial or whatever a "imeieieie" is because I don't have an os to tell me that (guides don't tell me how to get this on a bricked phone and google result is useless)...

So I cand download this thing called a kdz because #1 it wont let me, and #2, and google just doesnt have a download link for it.

All I wanted was a rooted lg optimus g with a nexus-like experience on it without bloatware, and I somehow manage to brick my device within minutes of owning it, what do you think I should do.

I did hold down Vol - to get into some black screen that says "SERIAL" with a number, but that number doesnt seem to work with that lg firmware downloader thing. What do?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Joecascio2000:
Super easy fix. Get an external sd card. Put a ROM on it. I recommend one of these http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2067871 the latest version is Stock Jellybean of our phones. OR is you want CM10 use this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2411406 . Be sure to download ROM+GAPPS for CM10. I recommend those since you probably don't know if your phone has the updated partitions.

Anyway put whichever you want on the External SD card. Reboot back into recovery TWRP (Team Win Recovery). Wipe Data/Cache/Dalvik. Go back then Install the files you put on the External SD card.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] DeathmonkeyGTX:
Ls970 is sprint version. Only att version has external SD.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Joecascio2000:
Oh wow I read that some many times and it just didn't click. Well it's much hard now. To OP, you should ask in your designated forum. This one is for the AT&T model. The easiest way is to find out how they restore their phones to stock. Probable LGNPST or something similar. Or install ADB, then push a ROM file to the internal, then flash in recovery. You're gonna have to do some research. But it's still easily do-able. As for the issues with the drivers, someone over there should have a link to alternative ones. But you can google "universal ADB drivers" and those should work.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Chocolina:
I used LGNPST with a positive result. The hardest ****ing part was finding whatever-necessary file I was supposed to flash to the device. It took me hours to find it (not much help from XDA) and I was never clear if the file I washed, was indeed the stock rom the device came with.

The device now has startup and shutdown animation and jingles I wasn't familiar with (Different from what I got the phone with)

What I know is, the ebay Listing was for a E973 from West Virginia with abunch of Sprint apps on it.

But E973 is said to be a Canadian model? But Canada doesnt have sprint? And the phone says LS970?

I don't know whats this phones origins are, I just know I flashed a file called LS970ZV7_02.SV7_02.P25006.tot which told me to rename to bin, it flashed an outdated, possibly mismatched version of android, and from update to update I eventually got back to 4.1.2 but had new animation startup stuff...

My phone came pre-rooted and pre-recovery, but this recent flash killed those and now im looking to get back to that point. I'm unaware if my radios or whatever are jacked up or not because I never intended to use the device with a service as I get by just fine on Wifi only.

I found something called GAIO but the original page is offline and i cant download it.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] [r.]GimP:
Well, by your own admission, you said you needed to flash the LS970 tot file, which wouldn't be in this forum, the AT&T LG Optimus G is the E970, it's distinct in that the back glass has the AT&T logo, for one. On the bottom center on the back glass it also says "LG-E970"

On the left side of the device, with the volume buttons, below them is a tab that pops open for the micro SDCARD and SIM card.

If the phone you hold in your hands doesn't have these distinctions, and you start flashing stuff from THIS forum and not the LS970 (aka Sprint LG Optimus G) You very well might brick, temporary or not, all over again.

That being said, with the correct kernel, MANY of our roms work just fine for your phone, but research and reading is a prerequisite for such.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] ppower:
I took Mda Compact from Germany last week and to work on english I upgrade its rom with using WWE_11200_128_11210.zip . As all knows that the main absence on our devices is an embedded wifi, therefore I took Spectec sdw-822 minisd wifi card. I installed its latest drivers, connect with minisd adabtor(only 6mm overflow at the top) and when I try to connect on to a wlan there is no problem I can see that the signal strength and quality is good and connected, but when I try to use i.explorer (or other applications need internet connection) there is no response, "the page you are looking for cannot be found" message seen on the screen. I checked all points and it takes the ip address correctly but there is no chance.

Briefly I couldnt use wifi on my magician.

May be experts knows that there is a solution to this problem and also I wonder what is the difference between WWE_11200_128_11210.zip and WWE_11200_131_11210.exe ?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] ampda:
As you can connect the driver sounds like its working ok, It sounds like its your DNS settings on your Wi-Fi network.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Hobo Sol:
Hi, I bought this device to replace a recently deceased Zune HD 64, but I'm finding the audio output really, really poor. It's so quiet.

At the moment I'm running the stock ROM 2.2.2, but I'm looking to improve this as using PowerAmp and it's Replay Gain setting just makes everything sound awful. The best solution I've found is to turn off EQ/Tone/Limit in Poweramp and disable Replay Gain

Is there some way to improve this? Installing a certain ROM for example? Is Direct Volume Control available on other ROMs and does it make any difference at all?

Not sure whether to install another ROM/Root the device as I'm looking for suitable performance & battery life.

Thanks for any replies/help received.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] mymo82:
Other than that, disable "Direct Volume Control" in Poweramp. As a result, the maximum volume will stay the same, but the output of the voulme bar will be remarkably more gradual before the maximum is reached. Also, turning the EQ off might help if you want to listen to your music on a "flat" setting, though my advice is to switch to "loud": if distorsion occurs, lower the preamp bar.

I own another Samsung device, but if you browse through the forum I'm sure you can find custom roms containing audio tweaks.

Really? That's odd. When I was just using PowerAmp alone on my 4.0 it made everything sound great (I turned off limit), and yes DVC does make quite the difference. However, my solution is to use http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2191223 Viper4Android. You can easily increase the audio output without losing sound quality. However, you need to update your Android OS to at least version 2.3. If you have the Galaxy Player 4.0. You can root it, install a custom kernel and install Voodoo Sound https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.projectvoodoo.controlapp&hl=en which also can increase the audio output on the player.
