[Networking] TheGorf:
I have a Nexus 4. I'm currently on 4.3. My phone auto-connects to every single open wifi network I walk past. Starbucks, McDonalds, Nordstroms, etc... every single one. I've tried both setting and not setting the "Notify me of open networks" option in the Wifi settings. No difference. Well there is, one setting just causes it to silently connect. I have NOT connected to these networks before. At the end of the day I have like 15 AP's queued up in my list that I have to delete.

This might be the most pants-on-head retarded design I have ever seen in a phone. I have only a few productivity apps on my phones. None of them meddle with wifi settings as far as I can tell. So, can anyone help me? Please don't offer me the advice of turning wifi off. I understand that is the kill-all for this, but it's akin to suggesting that longer battery life can be had by turning the phone off between charges. There has to be some option I am missing that is a never-connect-to-open option. I bounce between client offices all day and I need wifi to work smoothly.
[Networking] Boyturtle:
Yup, same here. I've disabled the setting to notify me when an open notification is available, and it just connects to all and sundry, often causing me to lose connection with a server. Anybody aware of a fix for this? Do I need to root my Nexus 4 first?
[Networking] AECRADIO:
WiFi 'scan/connects' with other networks.

Set your WiFi to be active on your network only, uncheck open networks, and select manage networks to a single AP, yours.

I manage a single connection on my Droid X, and 'forget' all other networks, and do not store any network data from these either.

This is the only way I am certain my phone will not look for other networks, but then again, you can turn off 'Update over WiFi only' as well.

Deselect anything that will cause the phone to look for a WiFi AP, but also remember that once done, your apps such as Email and FB may still attempt to update via the phone's network and not WiFi.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samanbabah:
so the title says it all. is there anyway I can root my HTC One without installing a custom recovery first? I want to be able to do OTA updates and with a custom recovery it is not possible. if there is a way to root without installing a custom recovery, can you please provide me a step by step tutorial on how to? thanks in advance.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deeevan:
Can you get OTA updates if you are rooted? I thought you had to be stock
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samanbabah:
I do get OTA updates, and it downloads just fine, but as soon as I try to install it, it reboots into the custom recovery and nothing happens. when I had Sense 5 ROM I would simply install the stock recovery.img and installed the OTA update, but right now I'm on stock Android 4.3 google edition and I can't find a stock google edition 4.3 recovery.img
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoryTallman:
Go to the GPe convention thread. Its in the development section. Download the ruu. Pull the recovery.img, and flash it.

Or ignore the ota, its a minor update anyway. No noticeable changes.

Hi guys!

I'm lookin' for a good WinXP theme for my jam... any link?!

I'd like to have WinXp GUI on my Jam but I can't find a good theme!
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] xcilion:
PocketWin and eXPerience are 2 apps that will make it look like you have Windows XP on your PPC. Check it out at websites like Handango.

You can also get Wisbar Advanced 2. There are loads of XP skins available for it.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] jimmy-bish:
CLICK HERE and look at the bottom post by me.

I'm using Wisbar Advance, and Wisbar Advance Desktop along with psShutXP. Basically the same as Xcilion's very nice Vista skin. The bonus of using these programs is that when you get sick of the XP look, it's so easy to change!

Oh and Wisbar Advance Desktop now has a new "Dock" feature which means you can create windows like in my screenshot, but you can drag them!

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cheesejam:
Hey, I had two questions:

First, I can't seem to get the wireless storage built-in app to work on Chrome. When I enter the web address it says to, Chrome can't load it. IE explorer works correctly with it (now THAT'S a first!). Any ideas?

Second, what's the deal with the default launcher pinch to zoom action? When you pinch to zoom out, it shows all of your screens. However, when you pinch to zoom in, everything just kind of disappears on your home screens. It's really bizarre, any idea what the point of this action is?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] friguy3:
just pinched the screen, went to a card view of my screens, then pinched "out" and it worked fine.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cheesejam:
Maybe my wording was bad, but try pinching the other way ("in" I guess) from the home screen. It's weird.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayochs:
haha that is weird..wtf..can you have 2 sets of homescreens maybe?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehdoughnut:
That was actually one of the tips that the phone pops up. Not sure what the purpose is really...
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoLeftHere:
You can just use your windows explorer folders to open it up as well.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cheesejam:
Could you explain how to do this? I am not very good with this stuff haha
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eleazar123:
Huh, I can't get wireless storage to work in any browser on my mac :( i tried chrome, firefox and safari.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stetsonaw:
it is a network share. on Windows, go to start, run (or windows key + R), and type in the address it pops up. when you see \\hostname, that means it's a share.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoLeftHere:
Just open "my computer" or any desktop folder, where you see the destination "computer" you type in the network address given by your G2

Thanks guys!
[G2 General] joshuadjohnson22:
This has been extremely helpful for mods on the S4 Active with a locked bootloader. It is not the same as having a out-of-rom recovery but it is a nice work around as mods start flowing to this device. I have flash MANY mods for the Active and it has been GREAT. The developer is working on ideas for flashing roms but currently this is not for flashing roms, do not even try. This has not been tested yet for the G2 and I would not try it until your carrier has a restore option available (currently Verizon, Tmobile and AT&T have one and they can be found here. All credit goes to the original developer and here is his original thread

Do this at your own risk, by flashing a zip without a nandroid back up this can cause a software brick and you will have to restore

1. Install busy box from the play store (YOU NEED ROOT)

2. Install the apk from the forum

3. download the zip you want to flash

4. Select flash now and reboot

If you have get the error that says the zip is not a flashable zip here are some things that will help:

1. make sure there are NO spaces in the zip name

2. make sure the zip name is short

3. if you still get the error that says this is not a flashable zip reinstall busybox and advance features

4. Flash Gordon does not play nice with AROMA installer so the zip must not have the included

5. Check the download zip, sometimes it can get corrupt while downloading to your phone. Try to transfer the zip from a PC and flashing it. (this has happened once to me)
[G2 General] krazie1:
Has this been tested?
[G2 General] psychoace:
Joking? Because you should read his post.
[G2 General] krazie1:
I was asking if anyone tried to test it how it is, without a backup option.
[G2 General] joshuadjohnson22:
I have but not on the G2. I do not have a back up... Now I don't know if there are any G2 flashes available right now. But other mods may work just be careful.

It is an awesome tool :)

Looks like AT&T restore can be found here (untested though)
[G2 General] autoprime:
psh.. of course it works :) can you edit your post to stick my url in a hyperlink tho? Like this.
[G2 General] joshuadjohnson22:
like this? Thanks!
[G2 General] spdwiz18:
I'll try if some one has a flashable zip of a recovery built four this phone.
[G2 General] wolfgart:
I'll try too with CWM zip.
[G2 General] joshuadjohnson22:
I'd say to work with [MENTION=3796193]who MIKE D[/MENTION] and see if he can make you a theme zip for your specific phone

I don't have the phone yet or else I would also try.
[G2 General] wolfgart:
Ok let me know what he needs to make it . I've Korean version F320K
[G2 General] spdwiz18:
And [MENTION=3796193]who MIKE D[/MENTION]

It's not the zip that's in question. I've made enough of them to kill and elephant. It's the recovery. One has not been made specific for this phone yet, that I'm aware of. I'm under the impression that they are not universal.
[G2 General] joshuadjohnson22:
That is the point of flash gordon... It is a recovery that works inside the OS so it has been working great and tons of phones... Just flash and reboot once it is complete and enjoy. Now the modified apk may crash once you flash but just do a hard reboot and it would be good

You will need to talk to him. Usually they need your framework and sustemui files
[G2 General] spdwiz18:
I'll send him a PM and see what he says. Thanks.. won't be till tonight though. On my way to work.

Or if [MENTION=3796193]who MIKE D[/MENTION] is following along with this thread he can PM me.
[G2 General] joshuadjohnson22:
I sent him a PM, keep us posted :) I have no worries it should work, just as long as the zip is made for your phone.
[G2 General] dmbfan13:
Very interested in this!! Hopefully we can get something going here!!
[G2 General] joshuadjohnson22:
MikeD said he will make us a flashable zip if no one else does with one of his theme. He is currently away from his PC but will have time in a few days :)

Call of Duty Ghosts Boot Animation with the theme song (Eminem)

The zip Comes in two ways. You can have it full screen or the original size.

The full screen is stretched vertically but still looks good. I prefer the original size.

The audio is a little off. I changed the video fifty times, the audio is on one time you boot up and off the next so there is an inconsistency in boot times so it is impossible to be right on with it. .

Credits

andybones for making the zip template

frostgt over at sdx for the guide here

eminem for the sweet music

and activision for the awesome gameplay and video

Tested on Touchwiz- sounds and animations work

Tested on CM10- cyanogen does not support boot sounds, animations work

Instructions

You must be rooted and have a recovery

Just flash in recovery

Now for the goods WITH SOUND

Full Screen

Original Size

Silent boot (just the animation)

[HTC Rezound] highdro:
I have received a couple of requests for openpdroid patches due to a recent post I made so if anyone wants a patch for their current ROM and don't know how to do it themselves, I would be happy to upload them for you. Please note that some ROM's will error when I run them through the program and will not create the patch. The only ROM I remember specifically is LiquidSmooth but I'm sure there are others. I'm running the latest vanilla 4.3 build from Neo and it works flawlessly. I will add the links for patches that I've already made and any requests will be added as soon as I am able to do so.

For those that do not know what openpdroid is check this link http://www.xda-developers.com/android/openpdroid-brings-an-open-source-privacy-solution/

In my opinion, it is better than the built in privacy manager in cm10.1/10.2 builds and far better than the app permissions option included in some ROMs because when you block an app's permissions, it will most likely force close. Openpdroid either allows you to transmit actual info, send fake data, or block it entirely. Some apps that require internet access like Zedge for example, there is an option in the pdroid manager app at the very bottom that says "force online state" and you will need to enable that so the app can have internet access but you can block everything else.

So all you have to do is...

1. Transfer the zips to your sd card

2. Reboot to recovery and wipe dalvik cache and then flash the update.zip

3. Reboot into your ROM and install pdroid manager from the play store and you're done

Every time you install an app it will have a notification in your statusbar for you to select what you would like the app to have access to.

If you have any problems with the patch you can reboot to recovery and flash the restore.zip or re-flash your ROM without wiping any data.

Here are the zips for cm10.1.2 stable

I find pdroid to be superior too. Thanks pctech!
[HTC Rezound] Uzephi:
I was a long time user of pdroid (almost 2 years) until recently I switched to Xprivacy. Same features and more. Yes, for most Pdroid will work fine, but the option to hide running apps list and just typing in a location for spoofed GPS loc turned me over to it. (Type London, England, and it will put the exact GPS long and lat coords)

Also the need not to make a flashable zip (Xprivacy uses the latest Xposed framework).

Thanks though for the flashables if I decide to go back. Saves me time from doing it.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] joppie1984:
I have a problem,

after a while my BA keyboard turns off. the blue backlight isn't lit anymore, and i can't typde. After a softreset everything works fine again.

Anyone have the same problem, or better, a solution to this problem?!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] z_rudy:
I used to have this problem a LOT with my new BA device, but with the 1.40 ROM I never saw it again. Since you're on 1.40 already, then I guess I don't know how to help. But hey, are you using the i-mate ROM?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] joppie1984:
No I am using the (dutch) Qtek.nl ROM.

So an official Qtek ROM.

Upgraded from an T-mobile (also dutch) ROM.

Don't know if the problem was there too, because i updated the devices when i got it.

But since all data has been overwritten this shouldn't be a problem.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] z_rudy:
Are you using the keyboard too much and then it does this problem?

People, anyone else having this problem?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] joppie1984:
Yes,

when I use the keyboard for sms it takes a while to "shut down", when i use it for MSN (so much more) it doesn't take that long.

So it seems like it "shuts down" after a number of characters, but it hasn't done that while i was typing.

Only with an time-out, so when the backlight turned off; then i can't use it anymore.

don't know for sure in what time period this takes place, because this changes a lot!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] z_rudy:
The same exact problem used to happen, but now that I barely use MSN Messenger, its gone. I am absolutely positive that this is not from Messenger itself... There is no specific configuration I use for my keyboard. The keyboard backlight is set to turn off in 10 seconds. Maybe this is a problem when it's under heavy usage. We all know the shortcomings of the BA make a long list, and here's one of them.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] z_rudy:
Oh...forgot to mention: it used to freeze at any time with me even while typing. The keyboard backlight goes off, and whoops, gone.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] caderoux:
What determines if this feature is available?

I am using an AT&T SIM from a MiFi. I don't know if the carrier counts that as "tethering". Everything on that SIM would be tethering through the MiFi.

I normally use Elixir 2 on my phone to enable hotspot and that seems to be able to turn on the hotspot, but nothing shows in the status bar.

Obviously I haven't been able to set the hotspot name or password, so I can't really be sure if it's on and working or what.

Thanks,

Cade
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] kisrita:
I just received my US version of the Nexus 7. It is not activated on any cellular network. The option for hotspot tether is there both before and after the system update.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] cmstlist:
I have been reading that all AT&T SIMs, even inactive ones, cause the tethering option to vanish. I wonder if AT&T threatened to block the device unless Google would suppress tethering for their customers.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Bob Smith42:
I started a new thread Nexus 7 (2013) 4G/LTE stock image JSS15J.

Because I believe tethering option was still active using AT&T LTE SIM from Galaxy Note 8 on JSS15J version. Unfortunately, after update to latest JLS36C the tethering option vanishes with any AT&T SIM inserted. I want to flash back to JSS15J and re-test tethering.

I am not 100% certain of the JSS15J behavior so if anyone is testing AT&T SIM on JSS15J we could use confirmation of tethering support.

Also, upgrading to JLS36C and flashing back to JSS15J needs to be tested for tethering support. Hopefully, there will be no difference between stock JSS15J before update and after flash back to JSS15J after update.

Comments and suggestions are welcome, because I am not highly experienced in flashing various image versions.

Thank you.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] pacman1891:
On AT&T's website, it says for table plans, only the 5GB per month POST paid plan includes the ability to use Mobile Hotspot. Prepaid Tablet plan is not allowed to tether. I think Google just made the update to reflect that.

If you are on that plan or another plan that allows tethering, then it is a problem if there is no tether option.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] clubtech:
I'm on that plan and there is no tethering option only when I put a T-Mobile sim the option appears.
