[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] sugarwaterdown:
Hey All,

I was an avid reader of RSS feeds on my rooted nook with Newsrob. Now that Google Reader is gone I have started using Feedly and greader app on my phone, I think greader is great and it does work on Nook (2.1) but there is no black and white theme, which makes it hard to read unless you want to turn on NoRefresh constantly and have a grainy font.

There is some hope, an updated Newsrob called GrazeRSS still works on 2.1 and looks good, though does not support Feedly though it is in the works (dev was waiting to get dev access but Feedly recently went completely open source).

Just wanted to let people know about GrazeRSS and see if there were any other RSS readers that work well on the Nook.

Also, you can request an eink friendly theme for greader here:

[Java for Android App Development] stkx:
Hello, I could use some guidance with my first app. I have a digi wifi module + sam3x8e arm cortex m3 microcontroller connected tethered to my phone and I would like to send some data between two. Microcontroller is pulling data from a pressure sensor, air fuel ratio sensor, flow sensor and and transmits data as: B25A13F1B25A13F1B25A13F1 where B=boost, A= AFR, F=flow

In app I need to pull the info of the tethered devices, send info to the microcontroller. Then I need to process incoming string and display it in app.

Since this is my first app, I could use help on how to structure the app itself and links to the reference materials you guys are using. I have read bunch of tutorial so far and created a simple TCP socket app that can transmit data when i press the button but thats not what i need to do, and I do not understand how to make the app continiously process incoming data.

Thank you,

Yaro

So I ended up with 2 fragments inside my main activity, interface, and a service that I can bind to.

I really need your help guys, Java aint that tough but I very much lack understanding of philosophy behind app design. Where should I break down incoming String data B25A13F1B25A13F1B25A13F1 into useable data. Should I do in service or Fragment? Please help... it took me way too long to figure out that I can't start service from fragment :(

Code to illustrate the communication.

Communication from service to GUI (main activity):

private class IncomingMessageHandler extends Handler {
[MENTION=439709]override[/MENTION]
public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
switch (msg.what) {
case MyService.MSG_SET_INT_VALUE:
textIntValue.setText("Int Message: " + msg.arg1);
break;
case MyService.MSG_SET_STRING_VALUE:
String str1 = msg.getData().getString("str1");
textStrValue.setText("Str Message: " + str1);
break;
default:
super.handleMessage(msg);
}
}
}

Communication from Service to GUI (Service)

private void sendMessageToUI(int intvaluetosend) {
Iterator<Messenger> messengerIterator = mClients.iterator();
while(messengerIterator.hasNext()) {
Messenger messenger = messengerIterator.next();
try {
// Send data as an Integer
messenger.send(Message.obtain(null, MSG_SET_INT_VALUE, intvaluetosend, 0));

// Send data as a String
Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
bundle.putString("str1", "ab" + intvaluetosend + "cd");
Message msg = Message.obtain(null, MSG_SET_STRING_VALUE);
msg.setData(bundle);
messenger.send(msg);

} catch (RemoteException e) {
// The client is dead. Remove it from the list.
mClients.remove(messenger);
}
}
}
[Java for Android App Development] nikwen:
You CAN start a Service from a Fragment:

getActivity().startService(<your parameters here>);

Everything related to this (e.g. the bind action) can be done from a Fragment if you put getActivity() in front of it. ;)

I found very nice simple example that works on the net and it works. kinda... After I click my button there is about 2-3 second delay before my client displays the response. Also I am trying to send "Hello there" and I get "....t..Hello there". I am intending to communicate both ways, from the phone and to the phone at the same time and such a huge delay is unacceptable.

// String strMessage = (String)ois.readObject();
// serverMessage.obj=strMessage;
// mHandler.sendMessage(serverMessage);
oos.close();
// ois.close();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}

}
});

m_objThreadClient.start();

}

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] andyverycool:
I rooted my Ultra. Changed DPI to 240 - LOVE IT! Still on stock rom.

Most of the app adapted ok for new DPI but some not.

Installed "Exposed" and managed to get some good result adjusting Clock, Swift keyboard etc

Problem is the sistem Dialer (screen shot attached)

It's not actually a dialer.... It's the screen when the call is in progress.

I tried different 3rt party dialers but as soon i press call from any dialer i see this screen.

It is always in portrait mode.

It is usable but it looks ugly and needs to adapted for new DPI.

How can i adapt this screen to 240dpi using Expose?

What sistem app i need to modify.?

Thanks in advance for help.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jeremy.chan:
in Exposed, have you tried changing Android System's dpi?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Keoregh:

Using app setting I changed the phone and phone/messaging apk to 320dpi and screen to 480x854 also do the same for the contacts. Reboot and call yourself should be back to normal.

Hi there. I am trying to install LG's On Screen Phone tool (Download here), and connect it to my Verizon LG G2 (VS980). I first saw this in DeamonFish's root guide tutorial here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Y45SXPRb31o

It's what he used to show the phone screen on his PC. Basically a VNC setup made by LG.

In order for that software to connect you have to switch into "PC Software" mode under USB connection Mode. Check my attachment for what that looks like.

However, it seems Verizon doesn't have this option! :(

Can anyone confirm? and if so is this something that could possibly be remedied via a rom?

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNLiberal:
Bought my wife an I9505G. We have AT&T service in Denver, CO. When we got the device, it didn't have 4.3 on it, and it prompted soon after we had it on our WiFi. We went to a local AT&T store to get a new SIM card. We received a new SIM (as her old SIM was from a SGH-I777 Galaxy S2) and LTE is showing on the status bar. She has had issues receiving and sending MMS messages. Chomp was telling her that the APN settings were wrong. I had forgotten to put any APN settings in the phone, and the AT&T rep didn't enter any either. He probably thought that I'd do it since I bought the phone. So I Googled which APN settings to use. Here's what is selected now:

Name: AT&T PTA

APN: pta

Proxy: NOT SET

Port: NOT SET

Username: NOT SET

Password: NOT SET

Server: NOT SET

MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net

MMS Proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net

MMS Port: 80

MCC: 310

MNC: 410

Authentication Type: None

APN type: default,admin,fota,mms,supl,hipri

APN protocol: IPv4/IPv6

APN roaming protocol: IPv4/IPv6

Bearer: Unspecified

MVNO type: None

What's strange is that if I turn off WiFi, I can send MMS picture messages from the phone and receive them on the phone. It's very odd. When I turn WiFi back on, I'm unable to send or receive MMS pictures on the GS4. Again, I'm running 4.3. My BaseBand version is I9505GUEUBMH5

Has anyone else seen this issue? Am I using the wrong APN for AT&T? Thanks!

EDIT: I'm adding my SpeedTest results using the app. 10.33Mbps Down, 2.59Mbps Up.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNLiberal:
My wife was able to successfully send me an MMS picture message from her school's WiFi network. She confirmed she was able to surf on their WiFi first before sending the MMS. This really does point a finger at the DD-WRT firmware running on my WRT-54G Linksys router. This thread is the only thread I could find that sounded similar to my issue.

Also, I forgot to post what my APNs are currently. I found them in this thread.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNLiberal:
Update

I've tried other APNs, but that wasn't solving the issue. Wife can send MMS on _any_ other network except ours. That's not an APN setting, that's a weird network issue. Based on the link I gave you guys in the first post, I thought, maybe DD-WRT was the issue. The DD-WRT device I have is only acting as an AP in my network. I have pfSense as the router for my network.

I just picked up a new Asus RT-AC66U yesterday, set it up as AP only and connected the wife's phone. Her phone wasn't sending or receiving MMS with the new AP. The phone still has 3 of 4 bars available right now when it won't send an MMS. Then I thought, let's take the pfSense box out of the mix. So I tried hooking the RT-AC66U up as the default router/firewall/AP. I reconnected both phones back to its 5GHz SSID. I was able to send and receive MMS pictures on the wife's phone. It started looking like an issue with my pfSense firewall. Then, I realized that my home network's IP range is 10.0.0.0/24. AT&T’s LTE network is also in the 10.x.y.z range. Its probably not the exact range I have at home, but its close. When I tried the Asus router, it defaulted to a 192.168.1.0/24 network. So I tried to set my pfSense box to the same range. I had issues with the router taking that range. It would serve out dhcp on that range, but I couldn't ping anything outside. I have no idea why. It got late last night, so I reset back to my default 10.0.0.0/24.

Today, I plan on backing up the pfSense config, issuing a factory reset and running stock at 10.0.0.0/24 and see if the issue still happens. If it does, I'll factory reset again, and try 192.168.1.1/24. We'll see which one works.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNLiberal:
SOLVED!

I have finally solved the issue. I'm so happy it's fixed. For those that happen upon this thread, here's what I did:

Since I had nothing blocked in the firewall rules, and I had Outbound Manual NAT enabled that wasn't the issue. I was in the #pfsense channel, and someone happened to come in complaining about not a ping not resolving. Specifically, he was trying to ping:

ping some_DNS_name_on_internet

It was supposed to resolve to a PRIVATE IP address, in his case, 10.0.0.1. I could get it to resolve from my work connection (not behind pfSense). So I began pinging the MMSC and MMS addresses in the APNs I listed earlier. All of them resolved and/or responded, except one:

proxy.mobile.att.net

Behind the pfSense 2.1 firewall, it wouldn't resolve. From anywhere else (from the phone disconnected from WiFi, from my office network) that address would resolve:

$ ping proxy.mobile.att.net
PING proxy.mobile.att.net (172.26.39.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
^C
--- proxy.mobile.att.net ping statistics ---
2 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 1007ms

But look at the address it was resolving to! I thought that since I had disabled blocking RFC1918 on my WAN port and LAN port, the address would have resolved. It didn't. The user in #pfsense said that it's not a bug, but a feature of dnsmasq and that pfSense was "protecting us from ourselves". Very strange I thought. But what's even stranger, was the fact that AT&T was deliberately resolving a DNS name to an RFC 1918 address on the PUBLIC internet. My only guess is that the phone will try the WiFi first, find that this address resolves to 172.26.39.1 address, then use it's LTE radio to connect to the address since it's all on AT&T's network anyway. Probably a static route on the LTE radio? No idea.

Since it was clear that pfSense wasn't resolving this address correctly, I decided to put a "Host Over Ride" in the Services: DNS Forwarder. I added this:

proxy	mobile.att.net	172.26.39.1	AT&T MMS Proxy

Once I did that, everything worked as expected. She can send and receive MMS. It was amazing. I've been struggling with this for a week, and now it's working. That also means I can go buy _me_ the same phone :)

I really hope that my struggles can help someone in the future.

That or AT&T actually found this issue and forced Samsung to add it to TouchWiz. My buddy with the stock AT&T GS4 TW tested and didn't have the same issue either (behind a pfSense fw).

I wish I could help the other guy out. Hopefully, he starts pinging and finds a different DNS name that's not resolving.

Hi. I just got the Moto x and I rooted the phone. I understand that with the new root method I have to load into recovery which will boot my phone and I'll be able to make changes. I want to modify my framework and change the nav bar dpi to 42. The thing I am worried about is if something goes wrong I could normally boot into recovery, Erase everything and start over. But the root method loads the OS when I try to use recovery. Is there any other way to reset the phone in case my modifications fail and I won't be able to load the OS anymore?

Yes. Either...
