[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EniGmA1987:
I use Nova Launcher, and knock on works just the same as always. Knock off however does not work quite the same, where before on stock launcher you could double tab on any open space on the homescreen or the status bar to turn the device off, now the feature only works when double tapping the status bar. Easy enough though. I like it this way actually because I am so use to double tapping the homescreen to open my app drawer, so now I can have both features working.

Happy to help! As a former Oregonian, I'm always looking out for those still up north aways. :cool:
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MobileNick:
[MENTION=2975865]EniGmA1987[/MENTION]: Exactly - I'm perfect using Nova if the knock-on works cause I don't mind letting screen shut off on its own

[MENTION=4597848]giri0n[/MENTION] Haha yes - rains are about to start so next few months not the best to be in Pacific NW :)

Do you guys have any issues typing fast due to the soft button placement? I had quite some trouble typing on my Nexus 7 cause kept hitting the soft buttons when trying to press space bar cause I was typing sloppily! :) Doesn't happen with the traditional capacitive button layout.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] giri0n:
I haven't...I turned off the LG keyboard and turned on the stock Android one (which I had on my GNex for a long while now and loved) and I use their faux Swype instead of touch typing so I don't have too many typing issues with that. The slide thru method on the stock keyboard is surprisingly accurate and learns what you use quite quickly.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MobileNick:
Good points! I use SwiftKey and found that traditional thumb typing is fastest and most accurate for me - will just have to get used to the touch keys underneath I guess. I used to use Smart Keyboard Pro and it had a nice feature to add some padding below the keyboard to add some separation.

Hi,

Since I tried to install Elemental kernel 4.3 and restore the phone from a nandroid backup because kernel make my One S stuck on boot logo, I have a Bluetooth issue. When the phone search a Bluetooth device it don't recognize my Bluetooth earphone. I couldn't use the last Elemental kernel version because it needs S-OFF.

Guys, I got the nexus 7 lte and with my 3g sim card, it has problem switching even with full reception. At h, its not responsive and takes very long to change h+. When it changes to h+ it loads for a few seconds and goes back to h where the connection will just idle

But when I put in my 4g sim card, iit's fast and responsive.. Instead loading for all and no such idling..

No problems with wifi.

Anyone having problems with hsdpa? Running 36r version and changed to custom rom and i changed to a new 3g sim card burProblems still persist.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mgear356:
Anyone?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mgear356:
Tired the same sim on nexus 7 2012, seems okay.

No one else facing problems with 3g network?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] nooob 4 ever:
my s2 was being glitchy so i went into recovery to wipe cache and dalvik and then rebooted from recovery. i waited and then it just boooot loops and shuts off. im currently using cwm recovery 5.2.7 or something like that. will i be able to flash the newer roms like CyanogenMod 10.2 with that current recovery? and why did the wiping of cache and dalvik booot looped my phone? i thought wiping those just makes my phone less glitchy
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] baseballfanz:
You probably had some other issues to cause phone to be glitchy in the first place.

When flashing a new ROM it's recommend you wipe data, system cache and dalvik cache.(cache and dalvik can be wipe after the ROM install before rebooting)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] meekrawb:
No, you are going to have to update to either the newest TWRP or CWM to flash 4.3 ROMs.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pairustwo:
I'm gonna jump in and hope this isn't a hijack. I had a similar experience but I wanted to update to the latest TWRP so I could flash a 4.3 ROM (Simbean) .

I Odined in and flashed TWRP 2.6.3. Was able to flash the Slimbean ROM but on first reboot I can't make it past the Samsung screen.

I can get back into TWRP but everything fails. - typical process. "Fix permissions- Success", then "Full wipe - Success" then "Fix permissions (cause I'm trying anything at this point)- Failed"

In TWRP Restoring backups "Failed" Flashing new image "Failed" In between I've tried Erasing everything but the MicroSD card and starting fresh but Noting will install.

I've reflashed TWRP through ODIN but same issue. A couple of times I've got a restore to work but if the phone sleeps it won't wake up. I can only get back to TWRP.

What is the Nuclear Option? Or have I done that already? I've been flashing for years. I've never seen anything like this.

Help.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] meekrawb:
Some people have problems with 2.6.3.0. Try to Odin 2.6.1.0 and see if it helps.

what I did is to hold the power button/ remove the battery of your phone. Open it again and wait for it to start. no bootloop.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Djezpur:
On my Galaxy Note, in \system\etc I used to have a modified spn-conf.xml to override the network settings from my virtual provider, in order to leave data roaming unchecked and have proper signal icons (instead of a constantly showing R).

<spnOverride numeric="20412" fake_home_on="20408, 20410" />

But on the Z Ultra this xml-file is missing, and furthermore apns-conf.xml is empty. I tried to paste the file in \system\etc (with right permissions and ownership) but that did not do the trick: the ZU still needs to have data roaming on to have an mobile internet connection.

So where is the APN information stored in the stock rom? And/or is there another way to let the ZU know that I'm not really roaming?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Djezpur:
It seems that the fake_home_on argument does not work with all firmwares. So I found a solution by running a script that changes the virtual operator numeric and alpha on my sim, so that it matches the operator my phone connects to.

#!/system/bin/sh
su
setprop gsm.sim.operator.numeric 20408
setprop gsm.sim.operator.alpha "NL KPN"
setprop gsm.operator.isroaming false
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Djezpur:
So I noticed some firmware versions did not have any trouble in recognizing national data roaming, and I narrowed it down to these two entries. I've added them to config.prop (in system\etc\customization\settings) and this solves my problem even better.

ro.roaming.extended=true
ro.roaming.extended_rule=1
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] asbesto:
you are a genius!!! Xperia Z1, followed this hint, rebooted, and solved!!!!

Genius!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Djezpur:
Glad to be of service!

Just out of curiosity, are you running JellyBean or KitKat? Because since the update to 4.4.2 on my ZU, I had to revert to my first solution in order to get rid of the R icon.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] asbesto:
kitkat! ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Kennedy87:
Hey guys been searching and reading and searching and reading for the past two days and I cannot get a fix for this camera issue. "Camera Error: Can't connect to the camera.". It seems to only be with Android 4.3 Roms (I.E. Paranoid Android, Slimbean, CarbonRom etc) as when I rooted and installed CleanRom there was no issue. Stock rooted camera also works. I am currently utilizing CWM for all of my flashes/recoveries/backups

Here are the things I have tried based off of search and other threads;

Reflashing Roms and their Gapps multiple times with no luck

Odin'd to stock TWICE and reflashed utilizing the soft brick method VRALEC and VRALF Boothchains as well as stock.vzw_root66.zip.

Reflashed my baseband from MB3 to MB1 to MF1 with no change.

I've tried uninstalling the gallery.apk using TiBackup and reinstalling with different galleries with no luck.

My next step it to attempt to flash a different Kernel.

I honestly love the 4.3 Paranoid Android 3.99 Rom but don't think I can sacrifice not having a camera. Any help from the Gurus would be greatly appreciated and thanks will be given!

Chris
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] macman159:
Try flashing the latest Paranoid Android, Latest BMS or Ktoonsez Kernel, and the supported GAPPS.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Kennedy87:
Tried flashing withe the BMS Kernel and still no luck. Can't connect to camera. Very frustrating. Thanks for the attempt.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
In this thread on Rootz, I was trying to help a user out and they somehowe got their camera to work despite my suggestion which is a little more involved than what you have done so far. The user somehow got it working by doing a factory reset and wiping caches, then flashing their AOSP rom and VRBMF1 firmware in the same session then booting into the rom.

Here is my more involved suggestion as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Kennedy87:
Thank you Slim just saw you're suggestions. I guess I will first try doing what OP of the post you linked did first if all else fails I guess could try the ODIN method as described in the XDA Link you provided...Youre suggest was the ODIN method utilizing the PIT method correct? I guess I'l re-odin to root66 stock and try the method stated.:good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Kennedy87:
FYI I am currently running CleanRom 7 with ZERO camera issues. 4.1.2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Ahh, this is good. I misread and was thinking it stopped working entirely which has happened to people as well. I'm so used to people having it permanently stop working even after flashing back to TW.

Yea, but since it's only an AOSP issue and not permanently broken, idk how likely this is to resolve it for you. It's a shot anyway.
[Moto X General] DarkVasyaK:
Just bought my Moto X from motomaker, made an order on thursday and received it this morning - so fast (St Louis, MO)!

So my main concert is the screen brightness. Even my Galaxy Nexus was not the brightest phone that I ever had, but Moto X screen is even dimmier. It is probably the same screen that was used at Galaxy Note 2 except being smaller. That screen was dim as well. That causes the display to be reflective to lamps and sun which annoys me.

Second thing that I did not like so far, is, surprise, the phone's shape which everybody likes. For me the edges are too sharp, maybe I just have too big hand.

Camera is a little bit better than Galaxy Nexus camera, for me the quality of it is ok so far.

But active notifications rock.

Do you know if it will be possible to increase the brightness somehow?
[Moto X General] Rask40:
I don't find the brightness to be an issue, even turned all the way down - any chance you can go to a retailer and check to see how the brightness compares on one of their floor models? It seems like that could be a defect, rather than working as intended.
[Moto X General] KNiGHTx4:
I don't know the Max brightness is fine for me. I actually wish the brightness went Lower. That is really not that big of a problem. As for the camera I don't know what all the criticism is about. The low light could be better but I think the regular shots are very good
[Moto X General] RogerPodacter:
Eh, depending on the kernel drivers maybe increasing the brightness is possible. But I doubt it. I think its happened before on other devices, but usually LCD screens. This is amoled so I bet it won't happen.
[Moto X General] luxeluxe:
2nd, i find it quite bright. In most cases i have it set pretty dim. I'd compare in store.
[Moto X General] LNJ:
That's AMOLED for you. I had 2x GNEX and both had different brightness and colour. One had to be 55% to be equivalent to the other at 30%.

If you think it is too dim, you are probably right. Just exchange it.
[Moto X General] Infekxion:
My Gnex with Faux kernel can be set to a ridiculously bright setting through rgb and gamma. Then you have active display/screen mode on the other Galaxy devices so it's possible.

[Moto X General] capathy21:
May just be defective. I leave my screen around 40 percent and it's more than bright enough even in sunlight.

Sent from my all black Moto X
[Moto X General] icase81:
I find the camera to be inconsistent. Some photos look great and others look like they have a gray haze over them. I think it just has issues with white balance, really. Because of that, in outdoor sunlight photos look pretty good, but with LED lighting, or CFL lighting, they look washed out.

Hopefully the new update makes it more consistent.
[Moto X General] AnMotass:
Lemme go a lil' offtopic

How pure is this Moto X android in comparison with the GS4, HTC One, Xperia Z

You know the pure android.

How much is this android distant with the "pure edition"? (Manufacturer bloatware (except for google))
[Moto X General] Paddington:
According to the reviews I've read on Android Central by Phil and Jerry, it is stock Android with a couple of added features that are beneficial rather than gimmicky. The skin looks like vanilla Android, whereas TouchWiz, Sense, etc. use difference icons, different menus, OEM-specific apps (like Samsung's S Voice, for example), etc. The Moto X seems to be stock Android 4.2 with a transparent navigation bar, active notifications, and the Motorola app to connect the phone to the computer (so you can get incoming texts, etc. on your desktop).
[Moto X General] ScooterG:
It has a very pure Android feel. As mentioned above, there are just a couple nice additions. The active notifications really should be included on all smart phones.
[Moto X General] jayboyyyy:
I completely agree with the edges but I also agree it is because you have big hands. I was dropping the phone all the time because of its size. I got this case that fits nice is a little bit thicker and looks pretty nice. I actually only got the case because I wanted a little but more grip on the phone with these shaq like hands I have.

Does anybody know if it's possible, i PM'd the 3minit dev, hopefully he can come here and make my day.

No. But If you continue to bump more 3minit framework threads a release for Note 3 will be here soon. :eek:
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polish_pat:
The dev replied to me telling me he had some personal issues and was not able to get back to me earlier but he said that if we could fund him a note 3 he would then work on the framework and port it to our phone. So fund raising or forget?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
Funding a Note 3 won't solve his personal issues if he is dealing with them. - You could fund raise if theres enough interest, but from the looks of it on this thread, there doesn't seem to be enough. It's a shame, it does look good, but sometimes good things come to an end and you have to move on.

EDIT: for the record Wanam has been having a few updates lately to solve stability and bug issues, so as Jaythenut said, maybe switch to that as it is just as good.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Con6tY5efs:
Note 3 so he can port it for us?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AddamsonFlint:
I ended up installed the Wanam Xposed Framework. While I read some posts where people disagreed in Wanam having similar capabilities, there were in fact more areas of detailed modification than I had with 3minit framework on my S2.

This isn't me giving my "opinion" of liking one or the other better, but that after using both, it's very easy to observe that there are flat-out many more areas with more options to modify numerous parts of your system with Wanam.

I loved 3minit, but Wanam did what I needed and then some.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wilflare:
hmm. what about Xblast? they are all about the same right?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AddamsonFlint:
I haven't used Xblast. I'm assuming it is similar to Wanam then?

I have access to Linux. I am busy lately but I will download this a play with it when i get a chance. I have another idea and I'm wondering if there are any obvious flaws so here it is. Before compiling the system partition, add 'su' to '/bin'. Then to have root the only thing we need to do is Odin/ Heimdall the modified system partition. Although I have compiled software for Linux I have never compiled Android before so does anyone see a fatal flaw with that plan?
