I can't find it in the play store.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] KatanaMan:
It's not in the play store because you don't install it on your phone. It's a Java app, hopefully the forum will allow me to link it: http://droid-at-screen.ribomation.com/

Is there such a thing as a fingerprint scanner lock screen for Android? I see tons of gag-apps on the Play Store, but nothing legit. Not sure if anyone has used one before.

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vega_Dan:
I gave my mum my xperia x8 a few years ago. and even when I had it, facebook just wouldn't work at all. it just says connection lost tap to retry and nothing happens.

I have tried uninstalling, reinstalling, clearing all data etc also tried different apk's and it still does the same to this day.

does anyone know why? my mum is having to use the browser version which is also rubbish.

the phone is running stock android 2.1 and it is rooted.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xWhiskey:
I'm not using Facebook, but I would presume that it should be working properly being one of the stock apps you received with your phone. Why it doesn't work, I wouldn't know. Might be that some of the newer updates screwed it up.

Some solutions come to mind:

1. Try a Facebook replacement app - I've seen people mention FriendCaster on numerous occasions, but there are others.

2. Try a hard reset - reflash the stock ROM.

3. Flash a newer ROM - something along the lines of 2.2 or 2.3.

My recommendation would be that you flash a newer ROM along with installing a replacement app.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FaZa09:
As in title, I have a question - does TF300T has CTIA or OMTP audio in? I've just bought earphones AWEI ES600I (CTIA compatible) and button functions don't work for me in N7 player. For comparison, they work with Sony Xperia J and the same player. Maybe it works for someone, and it's about my software? Thank you in advance for responses.
[Microsoft Surface] Telomeresis:
To my knowledge, the new Surface 2 and Surface Pro 2 both use the updated 1080p display.

Microsoft has stated that the new displays offer 46% greater color accuracy. The previous tablets have had a color accuracy of about 60% to 69% of the sRGB spectrum, at least according to the various reviews that I've read up on. Going by what Microsoft's claims, the new displays should cover nearly the entire sRGB spectrum. (if not, even more than it)

For those who've tried the new tablets out, I'm rather curious... How does the display actually match up to it's new specs?

I understand that the current panels on the RT and the Pro have some difficulty rendering deeper and more vibrant colors - the colors seem to be more subdued in comparison to the retina display panels featured on the iPad 3/4, (or perhaps even the new Nexus 7).

As the tablets are not out (yet), I understand that only rough visual comparisons can be made, so there's some subjectivity in that area... but a rough idea would be nice. (I'm currently using the RT, for the record) :D

When keyboard is open, long press the microphone symbol (bottom row, between SYM and spacebar). A bar with six icons will pop up. 3rd from the left (looks like a battery to me) will open up anything in clipboard. This is the only way I'm aware of but not sure if there's another way.

Thanks for pointing this out. Also if you long press on one od the items in the clipboard, it opens a contextual menu with additional options for your clips. I like the lock feature. I've always used an app called "Clipper " but I'm gonna play with Samsung's Clipboard app and see if I like it .

Yeah, I've been using Clipper for about 3 years now, the best I've found so far. I like the sync feature with the PRO version because it sync's across all my android device. I like that you can create sets, I have an email set that holds all my email addresses. Very handy little app. Haven't had any problems using it with my Note 3.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] igory_1999:
Is there a way to make microphone work at arbitrary times (regardless what application is currently running) and output the sound through bluetooth car speakers or headphones?

For example, my daughter is studying foreign language using Anki flashcard program on the back seat of the car. While Anki's questions go through car's speakers, I can barely hear her answers to understand if she is doing it correctly. It would be great to route her answers via phone's microphone to car's speakers as well. Is it possible?

Another example: I am studying a foreign language with headphones (that has a builtin microphone) in a noisy environment using Anki. While I can hear well Anki's questions through the headphones, I cannot hear well myself due to the noise. Routing my answers via headphone's microphone to headphone's speakers would be extremely useful as well.

Notice, that in this case the application itself does not provide a way to talk into a microphone. Is there an application-independent way of doing it? Can something like SoundAbout or AlsaMixer do it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] reinaldistic:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.bitplane.android.microphone

or search microphone on the play store
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] igory_1999:
Works well with headphones with builtin microphone, although there is some noise present (for example, from breathing), it would be nice to suppress it.

Works with car's bluetooth, however, the microphone must be turned off immediately after saying something, otherwise, things will be infinitely repeated (since the microphone would pick up its delayed playback on bluetooth speakers). As a result, one must have to constantly switch between applications. Neither microphone, no Anki seem to work out of the box with S4 multiwindow, as far as I understood, to keep them both on screen at the same time so that the microphone could be easily turned on/off without having to close Anki. Is there a way to temporary configure, for example, volume-up/down or power button to toggle microphone state while running Anki?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] reinaldistic:
are you rooted? if so download multi window manager from the play store and add the microphone to multi window
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] igory_1999:
Yes, I am rooted.

Wow! Cool! I thought that an application must be specifically written to work with multiwindow.

How's the camera. Could you provide more info/screenshots of it?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
Camera is very fast, about half a second or better to be ready. You can use volume up down for zooming as well as dedicated hardware button. In my view it is much better than stock. Multiple focus modes, up to 12MP, SCN, Exposure, White Ballance, Burst Mode, Touch Focus etc. Unfortunately, it is not possible to take a screenshot, while camera is on.

---------- Post added at 09:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:50 AM ----------

Eh i just realised that stock sms/messaging not include?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
You have open source replacement for stock messaging and e-mail: textsecure and k9mail. Both have black/white themes and you don't have to use encryption if you don't want it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] v0ids0ul:
Nice rom except.... I followed your instructions to a T, and textsecure starts by force closing....it refuses to run. I'm thinking possibly include G-Apps by default as opposed to a separate flashable zip or maybe do not delete the stock messaging app and include something to delete textsecure. Another thing I noticed was that for whatever reason SuperSU was not installed. I do not know if this is intentional, but if you're going for ultimate privacy I would think that leaving some sort of superuser gui program would be a good thing. The adaway software, as well as many other privacy/security related software need root permissions.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
This rom is rooted. You should have superuser.apk in system/apps. It should be shown in available applications list (it has a little green android icon). This is a free version in which root access is granted by default. You can also get chainfire su or another su app from the market and configure them the way you want. With regard to textsecure: This is the latest version, which may have bugs. Here is a stable one, which you can install on top:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2424717
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] v0ids0ul:
Thanks for the link, but what I did in order to remedy the textsecure force closes is to install titanium backup, remove it, and then reinstall via google market. Since I happened to also have a backup of the messaging app, I also installed it just in case. I am aware of the three major superuser apps, and did not see any of them listed in the app drawer. Perhaps something went wrong with my initial install. Regardless after a SuperSU download from the market all works well in that area. I get the feeling that as textsecure bugs/errors go it may have something to do with it being integrated into the rom. Have you tried to install this rom as a fresh install after building it? Sorry if I sound critical, I don't mean to be, just seeing as how you seem to be the most viable dev thus far for Ion rom's, I figured I would toss in my bit of constructive criticism and bug reports.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
You should be ok with installing a standard honami home.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
Thanks for your input. It is possible that some apps may not work properly if put in system, although they should. I do use this rom on my phone, but I also use backup to restore the apps, so, I wouldn't notice textsecure issue...

Battery Life

To those who have installed my recent battery fix:

You must calibrate your battery and give it a few charging cycles to see the difference. This is not a tweak. Honami Framework came to ION from Xperia S, which has 1750 battery. This value is reported to the system for various purposes. Our battery is 1950. The system thinks and does all calculations based on Xperia S battery. I have changed this value. This is a major change, which requires clearing of battery statistics that was there before...

Remember, this fix does not change the actual strength of the battery, but rather provides the system with the correct value, which translates in about 12-15% actual increase.

Honami Camera

Folks. As you might know, Niabok79 has released his original honami camera mode in a flash zip. He also claims that all other modes are using his work. That is not entirely correct.

I am aware of only two instances where honami camera would work (with limitations) on our devices: Niabok's eZistenZ and my Aoba_PureBlack. For my version I used files from NuriJ, for which I got permission and gave credit. While it is theoretically possible that NuriJ used Niabok's files, his version did NOT initially work on ION (and I PMed him about it). So, I did some work to modify the files, which resulted in a working version.

Moreover, there is a difference between the way honami camera works in our roms: in my rom, when you get F/C, as a result of touching Superior Auto, you don't need to repeat the process of initialization, just exit and restart camera again. In Niabok's rom, you need to go back to Dinosaur and redo the whole thing.

P.S. This is not intended to criticize in any way Niabok79, but rather an attempt to correct the record... :)

EDIT: I just flashed Niabok's zip and can confirm that when I get F/C, I can't just simply restart the camera. I need to go to Dinosaur and do the sequence again. In my rom, all you need to do is to click the camera button and you are all set.

Y does mediaserver eat so much battery ? I have flashed ur battery fix and caliberated . Today battery got dropped quickly . Was listening to music ,doing some net surfing for few minutes and fone got heated also . Does mediaserver work along with music player ? I hav attached pics .
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
Blame your apps. Look at your screenshots: it shows Android system on the bottom using just 5-6%. That is pretty low. Show me another rom that does that... :)

P.S. Of course your phone will drain battery and get warm when you are listening to music and watch videos. Or even when you talk for an hour..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] peddarson:
The answer is already in your Screenshot. It is the Walkman app which cause the use of the mediaserver app. Some audio players have this bug.

Sometimes the solution is quite simple: disable the autoscan of the musicapp. Idk if this is possible with Walkman.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
The reason you needed roger baseband is that ics baseband doesn't work well with JB and roger is the only official JB release for lt28i: crappy signal and wrong switching, especially LTE and especially on t-mobile. You can try to go back and you'll see the difference. Just flash baseband only.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
Using 22% in 9.5 hours is not bad, but something is causing your media server to work overtime, could be walkman. Get a firewall and put your apps on a tight leash. You only need internet for browser, email and social social apps, yet almost every app has internet permissions. Also cell standby seems high: if you have a weak signal, your radio will use more power...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] albuah:
There is something wrong with your phone whether it's rom related or an app i do not know.... You can see my battery consumption few pages back. I can get full 1 day if i let my batt die. I do have Facebook, instagram, bbm, whatsapp, wechat, fb messenger, maps, a few gps app install and heavy use. I don't use walkman app or other music related then mxplayer.

Try disabled/frozen your walkman or other media related app with Titanium backup to test if that make battery die fast. Reboot, Recharge at full, play around a bit, let it idle awhile, then see if there is any different.

Listen, previously i was on his Aoba PureBlack Ultimate Privacy Updated rom released on Oct. 18 . I had even installed gapps then . I installed SAME number. of apps den ,nothing more nothing less .

i listen to music using walkman player . And i was on same place so no chance of saying weakened signals,chek my screenshot for signal bar . Dere was no problem in battery drain previously . I got around 18-24 hours on moderate use previously . If am not getting battery backup like before after some tries , i think i will revert back to his Aoba PureBlack Ultimate Privacy Updated rom or i will try honami update without battery fix . Also i noticed that battery is draining quickly when data connection is enabled . There was no such problem previously.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
You are arguing with your battery graph. Something is using internet and media server and it has nothing to do with battery fix. If you go back to prior release or do a fresh install, it will disappear until you start the same activity that caused it in the first place.

Get Xposed framework and use Xprivacy and Greenify modules. You can hybernate any app until you start it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ben cherian:
Remember this 22% battery drain was when fone in IDLE mode at night . When i was on your previous UPDATE version battery usually drained 4-8% maximum at overnight . I really think its related due to data connection tweak as i see battery drain quickly when data connection enabled in this honami update. I will check today night n let know you . Also i dont know wat is causing mediaserver to eat lots of battery , i used to play walkman earlier also in update but didin see mediaserver eating so much battery . I think i shud revert back to your update version
