[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] haterbait:
Anyone?

Anyone else have this issue? I'm using the stock Samsung keyboard in the stock Web browser and when I select a text field, the keyboard has a much greater lag time when opening if I'm using the floating keyboard apposed to the regular, huge one. The floating one is awesome for using the stylus to swipe type as its smaller and I can just shove it over to the corner. Any thoughts? Alternatives? Thanks in advance!

Randomly started getting this intense GPS drain from Facebook. I'm on cleanrom 1.1 and have been since before this started. Location settings are all off including the Google ones. I even tried revoking GPS permissions from the app entirely but then it would not load. Anyone else getting the same issue? I will not that I am a beta tester for fb and I do get almost daily updates for it in the play store. The past 5 or so updates is where this had really been happening.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] BrettS:
Like a lot of people here I had been waiting rather impatiently for the real VGA hack for my Jasjar. Now that it's here and I've been using it for a week or so, I'm definitely beginning to see why MS didn't make this an option from the beginning, and I'm also beginning to wonder how much it's really worth.

Real VGA has two big benefits for me... it allows me to shrink the size of the bars on the top and bottom of the screen so I get more usable screen space, and it allows Pocket IE to run without it's stupid pixel doubling 'feature'... that's a big one for me.

Unfortunately it's got a lot of disadvangages too... it makes the bars on the top and bottom of the screen so small that they're difficult to use normally, and all but impossible to use while driving. Like I said above, making them smaller would be an advantage, but it's simply way too small. A lot of applications don't work well in real VGA mode... including the phone dialer, the calculator and others. The font size can't be changed for a lot of things... the start bar, the caller ID info screen, and others. This makes a lot of the information displayed quite difficult to read... again, especially while in a car.

As I've been thinking about it more and more, I realized that the only thing that I really need is for PocketIE to work without pixel doubling... then I'd be quite happy in non-VGA mode. While I doubt that will ever happen hopefully we'll get some third party browsers that will work nicely in non-VGA mode. Until then I think I'm going to be using non-vga most of the time and I'll just switch to VGA mode when I need to do a lot of browsing.

Anyone have any other thoughts on this?

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] vijay555:
I think that makes sense. We need dynamically switching VGA really. For day to day use, the thumb is just too fat for VGA. It's barely ok to use for QVGA driving/walking etc.

But for browsing, VGA is great. But it's too much and too tiring all the time I think.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] afhstingray:
yea...we need a button like the screen rotate button that lets us change the res whenever we want
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] eagle 1:
I think I would also agree. There are only two advantages to using the o2vga fix. 1) The only app that it improves is the browser, But as Brett stated, in the car it is too small. It works well for some sites very well and others it is too small. 2) the best advantage is that after I applied o2vga, ms voice command now shows the contact info when i say show "contact".

I also am beta testing the wm5 thunderhawk browser. It allows 640 x 480 and 800 x 600, and 640 x 320(?). The font that is used in thunderhawk is hard to read and the app is very slow. Due to the slow speed and font, I'm not sure the thunderhawk browser on wm5 universal is worth it. ALL in all, the original IE browser with zoom to small or medium seem to look the best.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] craigiecraigie4:
Brett: Couldn't agree more. It was great to see what the device can do, and how the screen really is, tiny! But in truth, the eyestrain was no joke, and finger operation became impossible. I did a lot of toggling between the two, and ultimately decided that what I was is the standard resolution, but with some hacks for:

- Smaller scroll bars (VJ mentions this somewhere)

- Shrunk edge bits in XL

- Smaller edges for Terminal Services (altho central area surprisingly gives same res)

- and of course a hack for PIE.

Now, surely the latter is manageable? It's simply how IE is rendering. Perhaps MS will fix this soon, or maybe someone can intercept the rendering engine. I even don't care if my images lose every second pixel in order to come to the right size at half the res.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] smb5823:
Real time Resolution Switching

See the attached link to a bit of software, which once released for WM5 may solve the VGA issue. It allows switching between resolutions on the fly.

I tried it on my Blue Angel, and it worked great, albeit a little unstable.

Note the site says they've been working on WM5 compatibility since Feb, so this may be wishful thinking.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] shivafool:
It's certainly not ideal, but besides web browsing I would add that word processing is nicer in VGA. Fortunately I don't have to do that much, but when I did need to for a meeting, I appreciated the VGA. With the keyboard and VGA, the term Pocket PC is more than just wishful thinking. :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Carnivor:
I agree it is to much hassle to work smoothly in everyday conditions, personally I think its down to programmers to make font options more accessable, take the new version of pocket breeze, in qvga or vga it stays the same size on screen, and gives the user total control over all font sizes.

This is the sort of programming we need to utilise such a great display!!!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] dvl:
lol

kinda bull---- lol

i remember when whe had 640 resolution on the pc.. everyone hated it when we started to use 800 res.. and lets not speak about 1024 haha..

i see loads of people using 1600 res nowedays.. higher res means better image quality!!

It also means better games better everything. So 640 res on the exec is SUPER, we only need adjust (like the pc) font size and get larger better resolution icons for those people who like to nagg (just like on real pc's)

VGA resolution is the future, and i am sure we get 800 res soon also and maybe even higher.. better looking programs etc etc..

and if your fingers are to thick for dialpad then you must have problems with any normal gsm LMAO

Just get a skin where the ok button close button are larger and nicer..

but that is just my penny worth :twisted:

Id like the same thing, somehow I keep long-pressing the volume down key while the phone is in my pocket, and I have taken up to 50 pictures of the insides of my pocket because of this, pretty annoying :P

I know I can change so the camera app cannot take pictures with the volume keys, but I like that feature.

Does anyone have a stock rooted tar mc2 file. I lost my activation key for tool kit and want to be rooted but all stock plus recovery, so I can run triangle away, before I decide if my phone needs to go to sprint..

Rwilco12.com - There's 2 versions. Look for the one with numbers in it as that's the "full" build - the other is one that I built when we only had the ZIP.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] doubledragon5:
Thanks. I have downloaded it for future use.. Before your reply, I went back to the very first build for this phone, then updated all the way to MC2. I did this because of all the flashing I done, my phone would encounter unexpected shut downs, or would not boot, which required a bettery pull.. So far almost a full day, and the phone is running normal again. I did root and left it stock for now.. I'm comtiplating on using digiblurrom, and doing some custom themeing with tools, like Ultimate RT icon.. Plus for battery, I'm going to use persaus kernel, as that is the only one other than stock, that doesn't give me any trouble, and great battery life.. Thanks again.

No Data preserves the data you have already. Full Restore rewrites everything and I believe it also deletes internal storage

I'm trying to set a custom SMS tone for my best friend's contact. I downloaded the alert from Zedge in mp3 format. When I try to set the tone, I get are the default notification tones for my phone but I don't see the custom one I just downloaded.

(If I try to set a custom ringtone - I can see everything no problem though)

I even moved the tone from the Zedge folder to the notifications folder on my sd card.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here and I really prefer to use the stock messaging app. Anyone have any ideas?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bskarpa:
Go into your contacts find the name and then edit. Scroll down to the bottom and you can set any ring tones and message alert. Hope that helps. I use ringdroid for custom ringtones and notifications.

News reports reveal that Apple has sliced down the production of iPhone 5c, though the prime brand iPhone 5s has shown its usual rhythm. It will also cast its effect on Android and Windows phones. Apple has been always tried to stick to its distinctiveness. The people using iOS will surely be affected by such reduction of 5c models. The ripple effect will also touch the the companies like admob, revmob, appnext, chartboost and others. Slicing down the production of iPhone 5c is entangled with so many companies and service operators. What do the others think?

[Motorola Droid RAZR] roscored1000:
I am using Safestrap 3.11 and have my stock/primary ROM and using ROM slot 1 for different daily driver. My stock ROM is one that I used to get out of a brick situation so isnt important to me anymore, but the ROM in slot 1 is working very well. I would like to make Slot 1 my stock ROM or primary ROM and burn current stock/primary. Is it possible? and what is the best practice way to do it using backups etc

Thanks
[Motorola Droid RAZR] neo.ank:
Whay you want to do isn't possible.

You can flash a custom ROM on the stock slot using SS 3.5.* - 3.6 or BMM.

However, you cannot flash the stock ROM to any rom-slot.

Stock ROM will only work on Stock Slot.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] roscored1000:
So to change the stock ROM I would need to delete SS after copying slot 1 rom to PC [eg] install that new rom as new stock and

then reinstall SS to have the slots free again, does that make sense, or have I made it too complicated. I just dont need the primary ROM anymore
[Motorola Droid RAZR] roscored1000:
locked bootloader

I think I have answered my own query, in that because the Razr has a locked bootloader I have to use SS or similar to install other ROMs. Can I fool it by using RSD lite to install a different stock/primary ROM and then go from there with SS? Or is it a case of going back to base non rooted sbf and then rooting again etc?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] neo.ank:
You cannot flash a non-Motorola ROM using RSDLite.

However if you want to flash a custom ROM to stock slot, there's no need to make it that complicated.

You can simply do it as you would flash a custom ROM to any other slot.

Though if anything goes wrong you will need RSDLite to recover and flash back the stock.

Ok so I'm hoping you guys can help me out with this, but I decided to root my T999 S3 tonight and after installing the custom rom, I'm left with no signal, no IMEI, no nothing, I've tried searching and every thread for some reason has links to other threads but I click on those links and they dont work :( Anyway I rooted using Odin and installed the latest version of Paranoid Android, any help is greatly appreciated guys!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dcast24:
Alright, by the grace of God, I somehow managed to fix my problem and get data back! Back when I was installing the rom I first installed it and then thought, I should make a backup, although I should have made the backup before installing anything, but I was too excited and it was already too late, but after the backup I decided to reinstall the rom and after booting up ive had problems. I reinstalled to he rom but still no network. Anyway I decided to go back and restore to that backup and BAM! I got data and everything! well I just thought I'd update the thread with what happened and my fix.

Flash the room again, if you get the same problem again, reboot your phone. It's apparently an issue with 4.3 roms.

Yup, that's just assuming though. You never actually told us what exactly you were flashing. For the future, info like that is extremely helpful.

In my T999L thread, linked in sig, after root instructions you will find how to backup nv data. I suggest you do this before anything else.

Hey guys,

I was really hoping to see the Android 4.3 feature for multi users as on this device since it is running 4.3 out of the box. I do not see that feature anywhere. I read an article saying it would have it, and others that are saying it will not. Does anyone know for sure if this feature will ever be added in future updates?

My nexus 7 was on 4.2.1 and receive a notification to update to 4.3. It got stuck on no command. Now I cannot get it back even after I wipe data or do anything. I've tried to use NRT to get it running but apparently it requires the usb debug mode to be on and I didn't have this on before the crash. Is there any way I can get this thing up back to factory without having usb debug mode on or can I turn this mode on via command line some how? TIA.

When. It will happen. It's just been a few days since release. Devs aren't happy with Samsung, so many don't want to mess with it, but either the devs working now will have a breakthrough or another will yawn and make a bootstrap within hours. Not sure if a bootloader unlock will come around without someone getting a leaked unlock key from some Samsung guy in China. It's not about being possible or not, it's about a skilled devs desire to spend time on it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdmoore74:
And this is why I avoided this phone. The Note 3 is hands down the best phone right now but as soon as the software updates roll in from Google you start to think twice (and that's with a fully unlocked bootloader on the Note 2). With all the tweaks and software enhancements it's not an overnight job. By the time my Note 2 gets 4.3, kitkat 4.4 will be about a month or more old.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thechad1215:
Well I, for one, am very anxious for the KitKat announcement specifically to see how the rumors play out in terms of Android becoming more modular and bypassing OEM and carrier update schedules. It's sounding like the stock launcher is going to end up in the Play Store, and I've also heard that the notification system could be separated from the Android framework allowing for 3rd party notification bars.

At that point, the only user-facing things left to the OEMs are the phone app and the settings (anything else I'm missing?). That makes me feel much better about my new 2-year contract with VZW.

Also, Hangouts SMS integration can't get here fast enough. Not pleased with Samsung's Messenger app.
