Thanks

Wow, thank you. It was very observant of you to notice the kind of "Rounded effect". I have taken your advises into consideration for my next release. I will be releasing a Halloween update within the next few days and will post here when it is certified and live. Thank you SO MUCH. You are the first to give me some suggestions, and I've asked for help on quite a few forums.

The next update will have many new features I hope you all will enjoy. :)
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] XanderApps:
Update!

Well, you could say I really buckled up last night and started my code, because here is the halloween update! :)

I focused on customization and user experience this time. The change log follows:

-Changes in version 1.2.0-

Big GUI update

Multitask support added (view video while using other apps)

Added tool tips

Added FAQ to project description

Significantly improved search times when searching through descriptions (by 20 percent)

Search now list projects as they are found (not when search is done)

Added settings for spotlight

- It's now possible to add/remove and enable/disable individual spotlight categories (found under settings)

Added the possibility to to favorite projects

Added favorite page (accessed by swiping down from top or right click the top of the screen)

Removed crash bug when no internet connection

Anyway I hope you all will download it and try it (and tell me what you think). I will be taking a one week break from coding Kickstarter Browser to recharge my batteries and get inspired to do some more work. :)
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] XanderApps:
Update

I hate how it feels like I'm spamming/bumping my own thread but I just want to keep you guys updated and hopefully get more feedback from you guys! :)

So I've just got the post-Halloween update certified. Change log:

Revamped start screen

Added playback controls (Play, stop, mute, video time bar)

Added video full screen playback

Added sorting projects in search

Added backgrounds

Added browsing categories in search screen/start screen

Squashed bugs

So this is the first update based on feedback from users and feedback I've asked for from various forums. One point of feedback was really important. The user felt that when you first start the app you are welcomed with a screen with a huge gap in the middle. So I made the middle part dedicated for browsing through categories and all the searching should be done through the search screen. Another user told me that the app doesn't bring anything new to the table in terms of searching and finding, so I added more search options. The third big feedback I got was that the app was boring, colorless and not nice to look at, so I reworked the layouts and made it possible for the user to change background color/add background image. The last feedback I did take into consideration for this update was that the search screen was a bit confusing and that the video playback lacked features, so I rearranged the search screen a bit and added video playback features (it now has play, stop, mute, full screen and a timeline)

So you see, I use the feedback I get to make the app better, please keep it coming and I will possibly implement it.

Thanks
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] XanderApps:
Live tile update

I guess you all know what this post mean by now.

I've just release update 1.2.5. Inspired by another app this update brings the ability to create live tiles of projects to have them on the system's start menu screen and keep track of projects. Change log:

Added more backgrounds

Added ability to create live tiles of projects

Added all subcategories to browsing

Refined browsing

Fixed bugs

Added Help/FAQ to top appbar

Moved settings to top appbar

Thanks

no problem here.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
I've noticed a thing. When X-Reality is enabled and i have a video or movie that's not high quality, X-R will over sharpen it and transform the video into something ugly. When i disable it, low quality stuff looks way way better. I have the Hobbit on it which is 1080p (and it's not compressed as hell), and it looks fine with X-R enabled, but i also have "The Jerk" (1979) which is a highly compressed 720p file, and that looks pretty bad on itself, but it looks even worse with X-R enabled.

So, conclusion? I disable X-R when i'm watching a "non-HQ-HD" movie.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] tommo123:
hmm, i'll try non youtube vids. i might throw some HQ vids on there and test your theory mate
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] bASKOU:
This is what happen all the time when upscaling if the source is really poor (even poor DVD encoding) after upscaling it look totally horrible. So X-Reality will give a really bad rendering if you use it on AVI SD it'll make something totally ugly. Can't do good with a bad base.

Hi Guys,

I have a problem with RcTweaks module.

Yesterday I tried to upgare RcTweaks and it download something and than finished.

After i tried to enter RcTweaks from settings but i couldn't enter.It gives me an error like this " settings app unexpected stopped ...(com.android.settings)"

So i can't enter to RcTweak settings anymore.

Do you know, what can be a problem and how can be solve?

I use HTC Desire Z and Android Revolution HD version

[HTC One S] XxbloodxrushxX:
About to click "Buy" on this device and i wanted to get some advice based off users who have had excessive use with the One S. How does it compare with other phones within the 150-250 price range?
[HTC One S] tivofool:
Love my phone, but.... I got it because it was free after rebate and a 2 year contract.

If I were going to pay money, I would have gotten the Nexus 4 from the Play Store. (you will have the latest version of Android that way)

With this phone you have to jump through hoops just to update it.
[HTC One S] XxbloodxrushxX:
I was really interested in the method though Google play, but it says they discontinued the nexus 4, which is a shame
[HTC One S] tivofool:
That does stink.

I guess it depends on your situation. If you are switching and signing up for a 2 year contract you can get the HTC ONE for $49.99. (att, verizon, sprint, tmobile) And that kicks the crap out of the competition.

Otherwise, if you are just trying to get the best bang for your buck I would look at the Nokia Lumia 520 -521, windows 8. You can get that now at several stores and online for $75-$80 with NO contract. That can save you a ton of money going with a prepaid plan. (just don't compare a $80-$100 phone to the $400-$500 phones out there)
[HTC One S] XxbloodxrushxX:
I'm looking at tmpbile prepaid 60/mo plan. Are there any references you have for affordable phones online?
[HTC One S] the4biddendonut:
I personally will probably never buy another HTC phone. HTC doesn't seem to like making updates for their older phones. They want you to buy the latest and greatest phone every six months instead.
[HTC One S] tivofool:
Not really, I am a deal shopper so I go to slickdeals.net a lot. Some deals last 15 minutes, some a few days. At least you can get a good idea of the prices and people are always commenting on the deal.

Hey guys, i'm not so sure on whether i shall add Seeder/Crossbreeder onto this ROM -.- Kinda hard to choose, but i'll make my decision in the next build V.03 --BETA-- patches may come at that point to make things much easier instead of doing that boring routine :) Wipe data, etc...

Anyways put your votes on what i shall add onto this build, also make a choice on what MOD i shall install, either Seeder or Crossbreeder!

Hi people,

today i found this post on the internet, and this is so bad.

If you will root a tablet/phone by samsung with knox, you will lost the warranty.

But why?

Personally samsung are doing a bad service if this will be true.

What do you think about this?

p.s. This is like region lock for Note 3 and other devices.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] spinkick:
Imagine troubleshooting an issue on 1000s of devices with different configurations and hacks. The carriers want their own specifications forced to reduce troubleshooting issues as well as those that flash, brick their phones, and then trade them in under warranty. I think if you brick your phone you should be responsible. This is why they block rooting. People abuse the system.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Guich:
Root and brick are different as you know...

One things is bricked, another is rooted.

If i will root my phon/tablet, is because i want customize it, i want to do perfect the device i bought.

The brick is different.

I never bricked a phone, and it's really hard do this.

If you have the knowledge, you will never brick a phone/tablet.

Personally i don't like the behavior of samsung, the same for htc with the s-on/s-off system...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Smac7:
this would suck, how could they not cover hardware problems that have nothing to do with root. This worries me cause i've never once owned an android that i didn't root. I usually am tempted to as soon as i open the box.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] spinkick:
It's in the contract to not tamper with the phone. This includes root. They are doing it to protect the bottom line like it or not. Just playing Devils advocate. This forum is FULL of folks who mess up the configuration of the phone and return it under warranty. Also, when tethering isn't allowed root allows you to break your contract and share data from your phone. All things they don't want..

Of course we all want more control. But I understand why they protect themselves. The only way to change this is to ask for it. Developer edition phones etc are a great step.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Guich:
I'm hoping Chainfire will release a tool for disabling this.

However i will root my tablet in the same case.

Because, in Italy, the warranty of samsung is so slow...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] spinkick:
The knowledge to brick or not makes no difference. No root no noob bricking the phone. How are they supposed to know if you know what you are doing or not.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Guich:
In which contract?

You're wrong.

If you have the knowledge you're knowing what you're doing.

So, you won't brick any device.

If i will do a specific thing, i will study how to do it and after do it ;)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] spinkick:
The contract with your provider and the warranty with the manufacturer.

I'm not wrong. If im the carrier and manufacturer I will do whatever I can to not pay for your mistakes.

Congratulations to you for knowing how to not brick your phone. You are still tampering and therefore they want to void your warranty because your warranty is void when you root.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Smac7:
I'm okay with partial voiding of warranty, but if my power button gets stuck or a row of pixels get killed, why would the fact i rooted my phone matter?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Guich:
Only samsung have this :)

Because lg, google, and htc give the possibility to root and don't lose the warranty.

Ops, i'm not wrong too ;)

If i will brick a phone, i have to pay a new one, but if my phone died for another cause and it was rooted, the carrier have to show me that the cause of the die is of root/unlocking.

And yes, i will tamper my tablet.

I don't see any problem on this, i can revert to stock for the warranty.

And if samsung and other carrier will block this, they will have negative feedback.

Android is open source, carriers edit the code and they release the code for the kernel and other things.

Why i can't root/tamper my phone/tablet?

This don't have sense.

In fact, other carrier, give the possibility to unlock/root with the warranty, as i wrote before.

In fact, this don't have sense.

How a firmware edit will broke the hardware like the power button?

And if a custom kernel will broke some componets of the cpu or other thing, samsung have to show that the tablet is rooted and it have a custom firmware.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] spinkick:
I agree. I bet they would not even check the knox eFuse if you brought it into a store and showed them. I think it's more for software issues that can break a phone more than anything else.

---------- Post added at 06:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:29 PM ----------

You think they will check knox when you shown them a phone with a bad power button?

---------- Post added at 06:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:30 PM ----------

You can bet other manufacturers will be looking for ways to block things if the carriers demand it.

Android is open but the phones are not. Buy a developer edition where rooting is allowed, or make your own phone and wireless service.

In the end, they are doing it because the carrier demands it. Business also demands it, lots of corporations and hospitals need to guarantee that their employees aren't Walking around with rooted phones which allow all kinds of nasty ways to steel data, allow unauthorized apps, etc. Knox is a tool for it departments to lock things down.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Guich:
Yes.

Because, when you will send a phone to warranty, they will check firmware and hardware.

Do you know that when a phone returt to you from warranty, this have the latest version of firmware for the phone/tablet?

All carriers check hardware and software when you will give to the watranty a phone ;)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] spinkick:
Welp, I guess you'd better not root.

Personally I've had to replace two phones that were rooted that had hardware issues with no problem.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Smac7:
does samsung have places i can just walk into? i always assumed shipping was the only way. I purchased mine on Amazon.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Guich:
All phone are, you can unlock all phone with some fastboot command or tool ;)

Yeah, business demands it, but why i can't so a thing because hospital need this?

If i will buy a product i can do all i want with this.

Samsung will be like Apple.

You've the phone, but your carrier decides how it will be.

Why all iphones are the same?

And i'm not talking about hardware, but software.

If i will buy a phone, I should have the possibilty to customize it as i like, but iphone can't, amd samsung are doing the same.

In the states we buy them from a store like Verizon or sprint, and they handle the warranty stuff. Not sure what you do with Samsung direct.

---------- Post added at 06:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:41 PM ----------

As far as a provider is concerned they would love to be like the iPhone. Which is wildly profitable and easier to support because it's so locked down. They made dev edition phones for guys like is. Maybe if we demand a note dev edition we can be happy.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Ryangan:
That's just how Samsung's policy is. Rooting is risky by itself anyway; the fact it now voids your warranty is something people can consider and choose whether or not to root and risk suffering a hardware issue.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] madsquabbles:
archos did something like this with the gen 8's. you had to install a custom boot to be able to install custom roms. they did still cover hardware defects in a few cases i saw. hopefully samsung does the same. if not, then i'll just go back to win tablets - sadly i think samsung makes the best of those so far too.

on another note, between me and my cousin we've had 4 droid charges replaced under warranty with the flash counter not reset without any problems. so hopefully they'll only use the knox efuse only in extreme cases like burnt processors from overclocking.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Guich:
But android isn't ;)

And if samsung will lock their phone/tablet, they have to change the os.

Android is open source.

Samsung give the souce code of kernel.

I can build a kernel for the tab and i can flash.

I think you know that all samsung devices come out with the bootloader unlocked?

And why do two version of the same device?

This don't have sense.

Sent from One with Tapa4
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] spinkick:
I'm confused. Are you mad because you want to root and keep a warranty? What is your argument here? What happens if you overclock your cpu and burn it out and want it replaced under warranty? Should they just allow rooting and let folks overclock without issue?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Guich:
And this don't have sense.

If i have an hardware issue and root, why warranty can't repair or change?

If they want do this, they have to show why, and how the software did this...

Will see, but samsung is wrong atm...
