My proximity sensor doesn't work properly. When i make a call the screen shut down before I take it to my ear. I try the diagnostics app and the proximity test failed.

My phone is naked, no cases and no screen protectors. Latest firmware.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megasoft78:
Hi guys,

I did an article about the features I'd like to see built-in into Android here:

http://techcookies.net/top-10-features-id-like-to-see-built-in-into-android/

What do you think? Do I miss something?

Do you agree with my list?

Let's discuss!: :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megasoft78:
Up!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
Are you just trying to divert some people to your personal blog to get more hits? XDA isn't a platform for advertisement.

Otherwise decent I guess, other than a few points not being "the norm" for most people (softkeys not on all phones, smart cover not needed on most phone but decent for tablets, screen rotation being just a 90 degrees rotation away).

I think the third party apps available fill the void quite well.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megasoft78:
I'm trying to get some comments on my work.

Even if soft keys are not for all phones Google promote it a lot. All Nexus devices has soft keys. :)

I think smart cover is nice but maybe not really important. Screen rotation seems to me essential.

I don't want to have everytime to turn on and off the automatic rotation.

Anyway most of these features required root permissions and I think 99% of Android users don't even know what root is.

Do you agree?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjz2cool:
the first one is actually built into 4.1.2, at least on samsung devices, just a fast swipe from the top and the statusbar appears
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megasoft78:
It doesn't seems to work on my Galaxy Nexus.

Anyway I'm talking about features I would like to see in stock rom available to every Android devices. :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjz2cool:
okay, then it's probably a feature added by samsung
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
You could have copied your content here, anyway.

But no, I don't really agree. In the grand scheme of things, Google has to keep it pretty simple.

Per app rotation is complicated for the end user and furthermore some apps cannot be rotated because they weren't coded to be used in landscape/portrait.

As for the softkeys, there's more phones with dedicated physical keys than without. For the moment, I don't believe Google is pushing it much forward. If they wanted, they could make obligatory for OEMs to use software keys, but they haven't.

Theming is fun, but it's complicated and confuses the mass. That's why the theming without root is reserved to icons, wallpapers, sounds and such.

That's the beauty of Android though. Apps and mods to fill the gaps everywhere.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megasoft78:
About soft keys maybe you are right : Google is not pushing that but it's teaching with Nexus devices.

The rotation can be implemented in the way it can take into account the apps manifest and allow users to do it when make sense.

Anyway this feature can be an advanced option.

Theming is probably the best one because actually you have to mess up with your phone to change battery icon or font. This features seems so basic to me.

What about screen recorder? Could it be nice to have like screenshoot?

If an app can do a work without root maybe it's fine but if it required root a lot of users will never have the possibility to use such a feature. :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
That's exactly my point though. A lot of users don't need those features.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megasoft78:
I'm sorry but I don't agree. These features are really nice to have but users are too scared from messing up the phone with root and custom rom. :)
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] NotInThoseShoes:
I have the new O2 UK XDA IIi rom loaded up on my XDA IIi here in Australia, I have changed the device over to the XDA IIi on the web client, I have sent the service books to the XDA IIi, I can recieve emails on my XDA IIi via the web client only problem is when I open the email there is no text and I can't send emails either.

Any ideas?

Don't worry I fixed it (hard reset).
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] Meanie Beanie:
xda2i update on Australian operators

This update has me interested, I would like to hear more on how it's performing. I only wish that O2 Aust would provide the update as well.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] NotInThoseShoes:
It's working fine with the exception of viewing .jpg attachments (works OK on my Blackberry device) and maybe a couple more soft resets per day but I can live with that.

Is there an O2 Australia?
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] Southern_Man:
The Blackberry web service doesn't work with attachments - but enterprise server does.

O2 Australia is in Sydney, but it's a sales office. Since this update is for UK customers, i doubt they will support you.

:(
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] Meanie Beanie:
No, there's no office in Sydney. I mean O2 Oceania. :D

Soft resets are no problem to me. I usually end up resetting at least twice a day for various reasons. If there are any further issues that crop up with this rlease I would be interested in hearing of them. Thanks.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] NotInThoseShoes:
Attachments do work on the Blackberry web server client in Australia (Telstra).

PDF, xls and doc attachments all worked on my Blackberry 7230 as did jpg after a rom upgrade.

Attachments currently working on my XDAIIi using the Blackberry web client are PDF and doc.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bpowder1966:
Hi, can someone explain what functionality is lost when using an alternative launcher such as Nova with the Note 3?

I am not a big fan of the touchwiz but this phone serves my every other purpose. what am i losing with nova?

Also, Are there other ways to closer resemble AOSP that i can do? (without rooting)

TYIA
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] musicsmandan:
There are a couple of things that are lost when you swap to a custom launcher, one of the main ones is that you cannot use all of the "S Widgets" that Samsung provide. You cannot keep the genuine Samsung look either ( obv )

If you move to a custom launcher whether it is Nova, Apex, or any of the other alternatives, you can create a whole new look, AOSP, Windows Phone 8, or iOS. Each has their different benefits and pitfalls, but it is all about finding the launcher that you are happy with and does what you requite in a launcher.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maverick777:
Do you get to keep the split screen multitasking feature using other launchers?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazyboy0172:
Yes, the only thing I can think of that you will lose by moving to a custom launcher is a few of the samsung-specific widgets (namely the clock/weather widget) and the swipe-up gesture to launch their 'my magazine' thing. If you truly care, replacement widgets can be found in the play store that will be similar to the samsung widgets you lose, and most launchers allow you to define your own gestures and what they do, so you can create a swipe-up gesture of your own to launch the my magazine app.

To clarify, there is no issue with the included applications samsung bundles, those will all still work as normal and will show up in the new launcher's app drawer (s health, s voice, scrapbook, my magazine, etc)
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrBigFeathers:
So action memo will still work? Also, don't you lose page buddy if you switch launchers?

Description

The program has three tabs for playback. A standard set of radio stations , and Custom Playlist to work with *. M3u

Standard - a set of stations, chosen by the developer will usually be a small list of the top popular radio. Will eventually fill up. Who can help with the set please email

User - a list that the user himself is adding radio address , or from the loaded playlist.

Playlist - to work you need to download a file *. M3u.

The file must be in the form :

# EXTM3U
# EXTINF: -1, Acid Jazz
http://music.myradio.com.ua:8000/newjazz.mp3
# EXTINF: -1, Alternative Rock
http://music.myradio.com.ua:8000/Alternative_Rock.mp3
# EXTINF: -1, Ballads
http://music.myradio.com.ua:8000/Ballads.mp3

Also, the program includes settings if you have an unstable internet connection, you can configure reconnect when disconnected and the delay between reconnection .

Now you do not need to search for playlists for playback, you can download them directly from the program by going to "Menu - Download playlists ."

You can create your own playlists and share with your friends.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] AceKing721:
I installed the Vision X ROM on my S4 the other day. I went into Settings/My Device/Language and input, and clicked on "Google voice typing" I unchecked the "Block offensive words" box, but I still get the stars if I say something that's considered offensive. I tried going into the text program itself to see if there was another setting in there, but of course there wasn't.

I know this may sound trivial, but I would appreciate any help.

Thanks,

I was also facing the same problem. You are not installing the kernel properly. Download kernel from http://www.mediafire.com/download/s32dnj9g9g44h31/Percy_G2_CyanogenMod2_2+.zip

Then download ROM from either xda developers or from http://goo.im/devs/YashRastogi/Galaxy Y Android Development/NexFit/NexusFit_v0.1_CM7_YOUNG.zip

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deon7388:
Hi guys, just need some quick advice. I'm on AT&T (not sure if it matters for this thread) and I'm rooted, running SkyNote 9. This morning I received an official OTA update from AT&T automatically and it freaked me out. In my few years of rooting phones, I've never received an official phone update and I've heard stories of updates getting rid of root and roms and whatnot. I postponed the installation for 8 hours (choice between 1, 2, 4 and 8). If it doesn't give me an option to ignore the update, will this kill my rom and root?

Btw, I did a backup of my rom as well.

Thanks!!!

[HTC Amaze 4G] cybergurken:
I had a similar problem with my HTC EVO 3D GSM, however it was also with Viper ROM but when calling, the person I called complained that the mic had a hollow and crackly sound to it...

Getting back to the problem:

My suggestions, if you are rooted, flash a stable RELIABLE rom with no extra tweaks, etc. and see if it gives any problems, if the crackling remains, you know what the problem is, replace speaker

If it goes away, reflash the rom but have a look for twaeks, etc. but in my opinion, the best is Android Revolution 4.0 rom, it works the best, and is most stable, the AOPK is quite buggy, and slow @ times but I always liked the DeSenced roms with AOPK

Hope this helps!!!

Thanks I reflashed back to stock, but the problem is still there, so for sure I know its the speaker, thanks for the reply
[Motorola Droid RAZR] AianAian:
I use calling card a lot, so I store all numbers within a contact and include "," to add pauses.

When I call those contacts enetering number by number manualy, I have no problems to establish the call (it is not funny to dial 30 numbers).

However, when I use the number stored in the contact, the dial speed is too high and the tone length is too short causing 95% of the intents fail.

I have used the search tool a lot even for other phone models, but general solution was go to dialer menu and enable DTMF long.

I'm using Android JB and within the Dialer menu there are not DTMF settings at all. I'm using the ROM Version 982.124.17.XT910.Latam.en.01 that I got from OTA. I just rooted.

My question is:

Is there any way I could re-enable DTMF settings menu?

If NOT, is there any way I could modify any configuration file so that I get DTMF tone longer?

Fianlly, would this be fixed downloading a different dialer with DTMF settings? (I don't like that option too much)

Thanks for your help in advance.

Heres the story, I went to sleep with my HTC Vivid on CM 10.1 Jellybean 4.1 ( I think ) and It was charging at 0% plugged into my wall. I woke up without it plugged in because of my father unplugged it for his phone, Now it doesnt turn on at all? I get the orange light for about 2-3 seconds then it goes off, If i leave it then try to turn it on I see a dim light come on for about 4-5 seconds then nothing. Please help?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
First... Go get your battery charged...

Then boot your phone...

Get rid of clockworkmod...

Use twrp or wcx recovery

Profit?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] TravisTheBeast:
Ive been trying to charge it, Idk if its charging or not? and I cant boot into recovery or bootloader or anything. Phone doesnt start up.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
You might need a friend with a vivid...

Or... You might need to go to a store and ask them to charge your battery...

Or... You might have to butcher a USB charger and hotwire your battery...

But... With the battery in the phone... Without the orange or green led... You are not charging...

What recovery do you have installed?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] TravisTheBeast:
I have the TWRP or somethin
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
OK... Next question... How old is your phone..

Mine is about 18 months... And I just had to replace the charge port...

Got it from amazon... For $11 to my door... In 3 days... Took 10 minutes to replace

To troubleshoot...

Plug in the phone... And play with the phone end plug... See if you can get the orange light to turn on...

Also... Someone way back when... Said plug it in... When the light goes off... Unplug and plug again... He got his to turn on... Who knows if it will work for you

Can someone ****ing help me??
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Jaxellis:
Not anymore. If anyone knew the answer they would have told you but now you get no help
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
OK... This is very important...

If you are on CWM... We NEED you to externally charge your battery...

CWM is improperly compiled... It borks partitions... And WILL NOT charge the phone when its off...

You have 2 choices... Find a friend with a vivid... And use their phone to charge... Or you need to hotwire your battery... Or buy an external charger... There is one on amazon... Cheap... With new batteries

Once you get it to boot... You MUST switch recoveries...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] TravisTheBeast:
Fixed it with Hensons tool! Also do I still need to switch recoverys and if so will it remove my rom and what not?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
No... Recovery is its own partition... And can be changed independently from the ROM...

I personally use twrp 2.6.3.0...

But WCX recovery is just as good... And actually better supported by people here...

And YES... Switch... It will avoid thus problem happening again...

CWM does not support charging the phone while its off

So what I gotta do to switch over ?

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] ZenInsight:
I would like to know how much battery you could save using the app. But apparently I would have to purchase it to try it out. You should have a trial 3 day period and then it times out and requests for purchase. Then you would sell it like crazy (if it works that is).
