[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] kennyeth:
Good morning people,

my first post and just wondering if I am a bit to old for this forum :( I say that because at 66 yrs and only experience is building a couple of computers Etc. However I bought the first nexus 7 when it came out and last week took delivery of the 2013 version with sim card access. I assumed that with it having a sim card that it would act as a phone for calls and not just data, I do like the new tablet and it`s a great deal better than my 2012 model...so here it is: Is there or ever will there be a way to make phone calls from an active sim??? I have Skype and know the Faq about voip Etc but am I kidding myself into thinking that it would be possible??

Thanks and appologies for my ignorance.

Ken.

PS; by the way I think this site is great.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] alpine101:
It's too early to say. Certainly not with the standard device as it comes. But who knows whether someone will be able to develop an update? Texts however work well with the addition of mms,apk. But you need to be rooted to add it so it is not for newbies unless they are prepared to take risks and follow the instructions in other threads here..
[Java for Android App Development] SecretPlayer:
I have an android app.I have a preference in my app which allows a user to enter his desired storage location for video recording it can be internal or external now the question is how can i determine if the user has entered the correct storage location path if he didnt enter the right path then how to show a toast and reset the path.

This is the preference

This is the editext

Now if the user enters wrong path for example there are spaces in the path or the path is incorrect for video recording how can i check that
[Java for Android App Development] zalez:
Without seeing some code it would be difficult to show you a way that would be easily integrated in to your app.
[Java for Android App Development] nikwen:
Yep, and when is it the "right" path?
[Java for Android App Development] SecretPlayer:
The right oath is where a video recording file can be created it can be internal or external
[Java for Android App Development] nikwen:
If you've got a file object, you could check these:

boolean isFile = myFile.isFile();
boolean isDirectory = myFile.isDirectory();
[Java for Android App Development] zalez:
I would implement a chooser instead of relying on your end user to type the correct path.

[General Questions and Answers] theppsi:
Hi Folks

I purchased the Lenovo P780 a few days ago. I am generally happy with it but I have one MAJOR problem :crying: which I need help with... The audio output level when I listening to just about anything via the headphone is just ridiculously low!!!!! This is the case even when I use my professional quality noise isolating in-ear monitors! By way of comparison, the P780 max volume is only about 65% of my Samsung Y Pro B5510.

I am not technical and not sure what to do about it. Is this a common issue?

Do any other P780 owners experience the same problem or is this just a problem with my phone?

The handset was rooted by the supplier but I am not sure which ROM is installed...

Please Help Me - I really need to listen to music!.

Thanks in advance

hello every one again i am here for you.....

Now presenting the new transition effects for our android device ....

After flashing this effect your device will rock again something new which is very different from any other

effects...

Steps======= just put this effects by rais.zip file in the root of your sd card and flash it via cwm

tested on 4.1 and 4.2.1 working flawlessly.

FLASH IT AND GIVE YOUR VALUE ABLE FEEDBACK ......

AND REMEMBER DONT FORGET TO HIT THE THANKS BUTTON
[Android Themes] dlsygaco:
Put youtube video so that we know what it would look like. Or a preview. Or what really this transition is
[Android Themes] reywal:

[Android Themes] Robsworth:
Will this work on ICS??
[Android Themes] jayRokk:
YouTube videos of some sort of preview would be nice.

Don't expect people to flash this if all you say is "FLASH THIS TO MAKE YOUR PHONE COOL"

Not only does it sound fake, but puts others at risk.

-Details.

-What modules, libs, framework was altered to do this.

-Any ROM or stock ROMs only?

-name of transitions.

Or did you find this in some other android site and just decide to post up with no idea how it works??

Please provide details, and don't reply with "BRO ITS TRANSITION EFFECTS"

I saw your other post and you also provided no details whatsoever neither did you help people troubleshoot problems.

For all that didn't know. Most 4.3 based ROMs include Window Transitions/ Transition Effects manager in them.

Stick to that.

I'm currently using Dopod 900 (Hong Kong version). Everytime I open an application in which I could type words, it opens the 注音 method, and I need to tap the "英" icon to change it to English keyboard. The machine cannot remember the setting we've made and I need to go through all these tapping when I start the application next time.

Is there any way to set English as default input method? I think the English keyboard in Dopod 900 (Chinese ROM) is just part of the Chinese input methods "Changjie" and "Taiwan Phonetic" and hence it is included in changjeiim.dll or phonim.dll. Just wondering whether we can find any .dll file in the English version of HTC Universal and add it as a separate English input method - just the simple English keyboard.

Hi everyone,

I want to backup the stock recovery of my HTC ONE (M7UL).

I found this command: "fastboot boot recovery stock.img", but it doesn't work. I only get "cannot load 'recovery': No error"

Could you help me with this?

This fastboot command only works on hboot version up to 1.44

If you're on later version fastboot boot command doesn't work.

You could try recovery tools app from playstore or you will likely find the stock recovery for your version on xda thread .

[General Questions and Answers] leathan:
Just my thoughts on this topic

(IM NOT TRYING TO BE OFFENSIVE)

xposed framework can be used to turn lucky patcher into a patcher on absalute crackcocain...... is xposed framework less illegal than lucky patcher? I DO NOT USE EITHER TO CRACK APPS AND I NEVER WOULD

I USE BOTH TO BLOCK ILLEGAL CORPERATE REMOTE USE OF MY CELLPHONE.... furthermore adware=logger and that is also illegal imo....

the topic: (I wont post the link because its 'closed' and i would like this topic to remain open, but this is why it was closed)

I read the thread and its not telling people to use my favorite app to hack... i paid for an app the other day that was only .99 cents but i installed the key apk first and didnt get it off gplay i was going to contact the developer about the problem but just used the fix in this topic lol.........

"Thread closed..

Discussion on lucky patcher which can be used to bypass licence verification on paid apps which is against XDA rules

Do not post warez.

If a piece of software requires you to pay to use it, then pay for it. We do not accept warez nor do we permit any member to request, promote or describe ways in which Warez, cracks, serial codes or other means of avoiding payment, can be obtained. This is a site of developers, i.e. the sort of people who create such software. When you cheat a software developer, you cheat us as a community"

1.) You are wrong if you think hacking means cracking

2.) You are wrong if you think the app in question is not helpfull to developing. (Thats why i use it........)

3.) You are VERY VERY wrong if you think intelegence is not the main factor in bypassing licence

4.) Youu are wrong if you think bypassing licenses is always illegal locally.

5.) You are wrong if you imply licenses are always legal

6.) Google play does a plethora of illegal things of which are publicly documented. (hence why people crack them)

7.) You are blind if you think what xda does, does not CRACK various aspects of the android platform and much much more.

8.) Hacking in general (not cracking) will always and INHERENTLY lead us to choices... let people make those choices... because some people think that what google does is illegal and that they should be cracked...

.

I can keep going on and list to 100, but ill finish with this.

Thanks to you lots and lots of people will use this app to crack apps.... removing UNUSED odex files is NOT inherent to cracking apps.... so ironic.... I might be a big noob, but ive programmed since i was a little kid and the functions of this app are a godsend to DEVELOPING.

p.s. to developers.... notice how you already learned something?
[General Questions and Answers] leathan:
Really......... xposed framework is 10000000 times better in regards to "illegally cracking"... I can do some things which before hand required actual coding.... please dont hate this app its got so many good features that are promoted on xda...

Just got the OTA update in The Netherlands (N9005 unbranded), 29MB.

No camera software update (I'm hoping that you can switch off continuous focus adjustment in a future update), so I'll continue using Snap Camera HDR

The handwriting keyboard (the keyboard you choose in keyboard settings, not the keyboard that you can choose when hovering your pen over the screen) still mixes things up if you let it interpret written words one by one, so I'll continue Stylus Beta for that.

Well, "improved stability" is still ok, I guess. I'll wait for the software improvements in a bigger update.

Hi all. Just taking my Nexus 7 back to stock as Im selling it to a young friend that is not going to need root or custom recovery or bootloader unlocked. I have now got a nexus 10.

When I got the tablet I used Nexus root toolkit to unlock / root and TWRP. I have installed Nexus root toolkit v1.7.2 back on my windows pc. I followed this video off the nexus root toolkit site for unrooting relocking.

Did everything as I was told and tablet went back to stock unrooted & locked. But when I tryed the recovery option in the bootloader I get a dead android with red triangle on him with ! in it.

Opened up nexus toolkit again and had a look in advanced Utilities and did the Restore stock recovery option. still not help still get dead android.

Any ideas? I have downloaded the stock image from developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

Shut down nexus 7

Hold volume down and power

Press power

You then get the Android with red exclamation

Press power, hold it and then press volume up

This should give the recovery menu.

Result!

Assuming you have a working adb setup installed on your pc (if not follow http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1152148)

1. connect your phone to pc

2. extract the boot.img of your roms .zip file and place it in your platform-tools folder (or where fastboot is located on your system)

3. type "fastboot reboot-bootloader" (on your phone it should read "fastboot usb")

4. type "fastboot flash boot boot.img"

5. when finished type "fastboot reboot"

and you are ready to go.

Remember since you are s-off, there is no need to have smartflash enabled, so disable it in your recovery...

[HTC Sensation] sweethurt:
could i just put the boot.img i extracted from the rom i want to flash into my sdcard and let it load in bootloader ?

no

put it in your adb and fastboot folder in your pc as suggested above

i almost got frustated since i cant do restore from backup and the flashing always stuck at <waiting for devices> in my win8 pc,

oh, one more question, if i want to flash another rom, should i just do wipe-install ( normal method ) or i still have to flash its boot.img alone from pc ? :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Just follow the normal procedure

But if you have again the same message about bending to the boot partition has failed then you will have to use the boot.img of the rom again

Wanna ask something again, everytime i went into recovery to install a rom and kernel, it went to boot twice until phone went into boot animation screen. Is it normal ?

All i know is that it would only happened if i i'm on s-on, i'm s-off, and everytime i try to disable smartflash on recovery, it went enabled again

smartflash from recovery always stays disabled
