Well, after some more digging and searching, I was able to get to the built-in VPN settings by using an app called "Settings Extended" (com.hb.settings) which gave me a button I could use to jump directly to the VPN settings. I'm documenting this here for the next poor soul who runs across this same problem. ;) (Unfortunately, the forum software apparently won't actually let me link to the app, since I'm too new.)

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] biotech326:
Hello everyone,

My dad has purchesed the new nexus 7 and he's very pleased.

since he's eyesight is not what it used to be

he bought the new nexus 7 so he could read emails in landscape mode (wide view)

and he wants to see the mail message on the whole screen.

Too bad in the gmail application you see on the far left side all the other messages taking about a 1/4 of the screen

size.

is there a way to disable it or use a 3rd party application so my dad could see he's emails in full screen?

Also,

Since i'm new to tablets how do you use the gps nevigation,

I mean there is no 3g so I cant use waze and so on.

Would be helpful to understand how can we use the gps to nevigate while driving.

thanks alot you guys! :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] garryknight:
You could install an offline map. I use OSmand, an open-source map, which means that it tends to have a lot more detail than proprietary maps. It includes maps for the whole world but you need to pay if you need more than 8 installed. It also includes navigation, setting your own POIs, a Wikipedia layer if you have enough storage space, etc.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] biotech326:
Thanks alot mate

Ive downloaded it and it seems ok

But isnt there a more friendly gps app

Using only gps antena?

Can someone please also help with

The other question regarding gmail landscape view?

this is our main concern.

Muchas gracias :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] garryknight:
Once the maps are installed it does only use GPS.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] biotech326:
Thanks mate!

you wouldnt know by any chance any 3rd party mail application

who can help me with the other issue?

:)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] garryknight:
I don't use third-party mail apps. But any mail app should be able to retrieve mail from Gmail, either as a POP3 or IMAP client. I suggest you search the Play Store for "email" then do a Google search for "Gmail POP settings".
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] aenertia:
use IMAP not POP for battery saving

andOSM is good, and allows for caching. I also highly recommend Orux maps if you want to do treking etc it is my favourite.

E-mail App's I recommend k9 mail (it is FL/OSS - and support a bunch of cool features) You can change font sizes etc within it. Also don't use POP3 for collection in gmail. Turn on IMAP and use that instead - as it allows push notifications and you won't each up your battery with having to check with the server if mail has arrived as you would using pop3.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] garryknight:
The OP said, "My dad has purchased the Nexus 7" so I recommended POP settings... ;)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] purple lady:
K9-Mail has everything full screen in landscape and you can set font sizes for everything too. You can turn off the split screen in settings.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] joebongo:
Anyone know how this toggles? At the moment mine isn't popping up every time, but a week ago it was. Now with the big-ass keyboard of the JJ in landscape mode, I don't want this to popup and wondered if anyone knows how to toggle it?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] BrettS:
I haven't quite figured it out, but it seems to be some sort of a 'smart' thing.

I think it works like this... if you have the phone in tablet mode and use the button to bring up the keyboard, then it seems to keep coming up automatically whenever you put the cursor in a text field. If you switch to laptop mode and enter a text field the keyboard still comes up, but if you type something with the keyboard then the onscreen keyboard disappears and I think that will stop it from coming up automatically... until you pull it up again in tablet mode.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] joebongo:
Thanks for the reply. It's an interesting idea. As it's not doing it right now, I am almost scared to put it to the test :oops:

Anyone else tried it or had this problem?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] stot:
Its not a problem, Brett is quite right. If you put the screen KB away with the stylus and type on the KB it will pop back up again next time you enter a field. If you hit a key on the KB with the screen KB still visible it will disapear and not come back til you go into portrait mode or bring the KB up again manually.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] korc:
So I have a small problem and few questions.

I've bought S4mini in Poland where i live, but with SEB (Baltic) region firmware.

when I type in phone *#1234# I get:

AP: i9195XXUAMG8

CP: i9195XXUAMG8

CSC: I91950XXAMG4

Question no. 1 - what does it mean, and shouldn't be there 3x MG8 ?

Question no. 2 - when I flash with Odin 3.09 firmware for polish region (XEO) from Samsung-Updates.com, Kies will identify my phone firmware as polish XEO , and I will be able to recieve OTA from my region and flash it normally?

Question no. 3 - on Samsung-Updates.com is big firmware file and separatly kernel file. I should flash both or the kernell is also includet in md5 firmware file? If not, haw to flash only kernel in Odin? - the same procedure as firmware?

I'm doing this, because I'm experiencing big battery drain in standby mode, and it seems like its radio related. When this won't help I'll flash CM 10.1 as my last solution.

thanks in advance :)

ps. this is my wifes phone, so if I broke it she will kill me :P
[Sony Xperia ZR] itandy:
Again I'm not the dev of these custom recovery. Just that I pack them together and modified a theme to work with our ZR phone.

Installation procedure:

1. Just unzip lockeddualrecovery2.6.0-RELEASE.windows.zip in your PC and run either supersu.bat or superuser.bat.

2. After all files are installed, your phone should reboot automatically into CWM.

3. If you're unable to see CWM and your phone just reboot normally to Android, then you might be suffering from remount-reboot issue. Just run the fix for remount-reboot first.

How to enter CWM/TWRP:

1. During a reboot, when the LED turns green, press VOL-UP for CWM or VOL-DOWN for TWRP. The LED will then turn purple before entering the selected custom recovery.

How to apply the proper theme in TWRP to fix UI issue:

1. Copy the TWRP_theme_720_play.zip into /sdcard/TWRP/theme and rename it as ui.zip

How to restore stock recovery

1. Delete the following files:

/system/bin/recovery.twrp.cpio.lzma (or .tar)

/system/bin/recovery.cwm.cpio.lzma (or .tar)

/system/bin/charger

/system/bin/ric

/system/bin/chargemon

/system/bin/dualrecovery.sh

2. Inside /system/bin/ rename chargemon.stock to chargemon

3. Change permission for chargemon (chmod 755 chargemon)

Credits:

- Team Win for TWRP

- ClockWorkMod for CWM

- z31s1g for the beautiful Holofied theme. I only rescaled some images and edit the xml for 720p display.
[Sony Xperia ZR] shteren:
excuse me for my ignorance noobish question, but why do we need a dual boot recovery? whats special about twrp if we already have a fine working cwm? or perhaps if one prefers twrp why whould be need both?
[Sony Xperia ZR] itandy:
This is actually a valid question. Personally, I prefer to use TWRP since it's touch based and support more functions. Maybe someone does need CWM for some reasons.
[Sony Xperia ZR] anthonythangaraj:
Working fine on Xperia ZR C5502 67 Firmware & able to use TWRP recovery
[Sony Xperia ZR] njsdante:
CWM part is working fine but fail to fix ui issue on TWRP part.

Copying the ui.zip to sdcard/TWRP/theme not solved the problem.

Can someone help me to fix this.

:crying::crying:

PS. Xperia ZR C5502 with C5503 10.1.1.A.1.310 firmware.
[Sony Xperia ZR] itandy:
Are you using the INTERNAL SD card to store the ui.zip?

What do you see in TWRP? Similar to the Holofied them in this link?
[Sony Xperia ZR] njsdante:
TWRP folder is on internal sd card so i copy the ui.zip into internal sd/TWRP/theme.

But when i entering into TWRP mode, i can only see the partial screen which contain install, wipe and backup buttons in big icon.

And no way to get out of recovery mode except removing the battery.
[Sony Xperia ZR] itandy:
So it seems TWRP is unable to read the theme file. Can you check if your ui.zip file is corrupted?

MD5 checksum is: 20B934657DB6E7F19E9D603DA7529B35
[Sony Xperia ZR] gmengass:
FXP compatible?

Does this work with FXP?
[Sony Xperia ZR] itandy:
Actually I don't know. Please report back if you have answer.
[Sony Xperia ZR] njsdante:
I don't really know how to check the theme file is corrupted or not.( sorry for my noobness)

Can you please tell me how to do it.

:confused::confused::confused:
[Sony Xperia ZR] itandy:
I guess the easiest way is to use something like 7zip in PC and use the Test function.

i have a question, where does CWM save the nandroid backups? i can't seem to find the backup i just made.
[Sony Xperia ZR] su1979:
ClockworkMod stores its NANDroid backup folders at this location:

/mnt/shell/emulated/clockworkmod/backup
[Sony Xperia ZR] single:
any idea how to change that path to be in SDcard instead?
[Sony Xperia ZR] itandy:
I've no idea how to do that in CWM. But at least in TWRP you can select external sdcard.
[Sony Xperia ZR] moolash:
You can do that in CWM (I think it is in Advanced, and change to External SD or so).

However, as I have posted a couple of times, CWM fails to do a proper NAND as it is always skipping an important part, an .img of about 1Gb with apps installed and so.

Without that, the NAND is worth nothing.

I am going to try TWRP now - I wanna try new roms but I NEED a backup.
[Sony Xperia ZR] DPY!:
Choose the option "Backup to external SDCard" while backing up via CWM. While restoring use "Restore from external SDCard". I have used this several time and works properly.

If anyone wants to update via OTA, you have to remove recovery. [MENTION=2536649]itandy[/MENTION] Please add this to your post.

Here's how to remove dual recovery:

Delete the following files:

/system/bin/recovery.twrp.cpio.lzma (or .tar)

/system/bin/recovery.cwm.cpio.lzma (or .tar)

/system/bin/charger

/system/bin/ric

/system/bin/chargemon

/system/bin/dualrecovery.sh

Then inside */system/bin/ rename chargemon.stock to chargemon check its permissions (should be 755 or otherwise visible as -rwxr-x-r-x). Done!

[Sony Xperia ZR] avik735:
Will this work with the stock 10.5.A.0.230 firmware?
[Sony Xperia ZR] moolash:
failed

I don't seem to be able to make a backup. I want to do it to ext_SD Card.

First of all, I cannot tick that checkbox.

No matter if I mount or unmount it, right after starting the backup it fails.

With CWM on the other hand, all the backups I make skip and miss the installed app part so my backup is useless.

I think it is a mounting issue.

Can you help me, itandy or folks?

[Micromax A110] jatin@1:

[Micromax A110] jatin@1:
FIRST HAVE YOU UN-INSTALLED ALL THOSE DRIVERS THAT ARE PREVIOUSLY INSTALLED IN YOUR PC?

AFTER UN-INSTALLING FOLLOW THE STEPS MENTIONED IN THAT THREAD.

AND SECOND...IF IN 5th STEP NO DRIVERS ARE BEING INSTALLED THEN SIMPLY JUMP TO 6th STEP.

OH YES...I FORGOT..

SIMPLY CONNECT YOUR PHONE IN SWITCH OF MODE AND PRESS AND HOLD THE VOLUME UP BUTTON.THIS WAY YOU WILL GET INTO META-MOD AND SP FLASH TOOLS WILL DETECT YOUR PHONE AND YOU WILL BE ABLE TO FLASH RECOVERY.;)

AND AS THIS PROBLEM IS RELATED TO DRIVERS ONLY.....IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE DISCUSSED IN THAT THREAD AND I DON'T THINK THERE IS A NEED FOR A SEPARATE THREAD. .......so it will be better to discuss in that thread and close this one.

[Micromax A110] jatin@1:
Sorry didn't got you : that mtk drivers has no way to install.

Simply download and install these-:

download and install the following drivers on ur pc.

VCOM DRIVERS

LINK: http://db.tt/ZKY7S9hw

MTK DRIVERS

LINK: http://db.tt/pQY576b7

CYNUS T2 DRIVERS

LINK: http://db.tt/oDLxs839

And then.. click on device manager(on the left).if ur device is listed under adb devices then u have successfully install drivers. But if it is listed with a yellow sign under unknown devices then right click on it. Select update drivers and locate to the folder c/program files/micromax

this folder includes drivers and that will be installed.

HOPE THIS TIME IT HELPS YOU.

don't mind..... i don't know why but i am thinking that you are going somewhere wrong.

Because that meta-mod should have worked.

But also there can be a hardware problem (though it's chances are very less)... So still to check that change your usb driver and also usb port.

Create a new windows user with admin privileges and connect the phone and install drivers. After drivers are installed please use spflash tool. It will work.
[Micromax A110] littleromeo:
okay, first thing you need to do to install vcom drivers is to disable the mandatory digital signature enforcement in windows 8.

(Yeah this is a stupid thing msft started with windows 8, the VCOM drivers are not digitally signed so windows won't install even if you have admin rights.)

Step 1. Go to the right bottom corner of the desktop and wait for the side menu to appear. When it’s there click on the gear icon with the title “Settings”.

Step 2. Now click on the entry “More PC Settings”, then click on the entry “General”.

Step 4. Scroll down to “Restart now” (under “Advanced start up ”) and click it.

Step 5. Wait a bit for a menu.

Step 6. Now click “Troubleshoot”, then “Advanced Options” and after that click “Windows Start up Settings”.

Disable the digital signature enforcement and boot onto windows.

To install vcom drivers, right click the file(64bit or 32 bit) and select install.

As for the bin4ry tool, it doesn't work on jellybean for rooting. You need to install custom recovery and flash the supersu zip file.

Hope it helps.
