Hi i'm new and i have a question.

Everybody is talking about how to get the ios7 look on android and I came with an idea. Have you seen the new goophone (iphone copy runing android), how did they get that look? Maybe it is possible to instal the rom or the laucher they used to create the goophone in another android device?

i dont know much about that, but ive been looking for the rom they use or the launcher they use to install it on my S3 but there is nothing there.

Here are some pictures of the goophone i5s and i5c running android but looking like ios7. it would be great to use the same on any android.
[Android Themes] rocarizt:
What is that all about ios7? It is looking ****in ugly, if u want ios7, buy an iPhone!

I used an jailbroken iPhone before switching to S3/ Android, the only cool thing about iOS is the Cydia Store.

Ich wars!

if it is to a linux computer, you would add this to your /home/user/.bashrc file <- notice the dot.

export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/whatever/file/you/need

you can add this line below the same line, if you have one like this already.

to test, youc an also type it on the CLI, if it works, and you needed it permanent, then add it to the file mentioned.

[General Questions and Answers] jkellyre:
First off, I hope this is posted in the right place, I'm not allowed because of post count to post in the developer forum where the LMT Launcher discussions are happening. Here is the issue I'm having: I've set up the right center ISA to run a takser task, but what happens is even though the LMT Launcher works as desired, the swipe registers in whatever other app I'm running, e.g. options in Dolphin Browser, next track in Rhapsody, next screen on the homescreen. How can I give priority to the ISA and prevent the app that I'm running from registering the swipe?

Again, sorry if this is posted in the wrong place, not quite sure exactly where to ask :)

BTW, I have a Droid Bionic running both stock 4.1.2 and CM 10.1.3 if that makes a difference.

Thanks :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcnbama:
Hey I came across this question online and hasn't been answered. It's the exact same question I had so I'm just looking for an experts opinion.

"Android 4 has a feature where you can disable notifications for an app by going to that app's properties and unchecking a checkbox. Both temporary and ongoing notifications will be hidden.

My question relates to low memory situations. If your device is low on memory, it will selectively kill processes to regain memory. Apps not in the foreground will go first. Apps that have a persistent notification have higher priority (though they, too, may be killed in extreme cases).

Many utility apps, like tasker, llama, Juice Defender, and others have an in-app ability to disable the ongoing notification icon. They all stress, however, that hiding the icon will cause their respective app to be more likely to be killed if there is low memory.

If I select to hide the notifications within the app properties, the app (presumably) doesn't know that it is being silenced.

If I hide the notifications via app properties, does the app therefore get pushed to a lower priority when memory is low? Or does the persistent notification simply get hidden, but is still running and giving the app the higher memory priority?"
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcnbama:
And I guess this is why the question wasn't ever answered before.. Lol. It's a good one...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okmijnlp:
It probably would put it to a lower priority. But 2gb of ram is a ton so you shouldn't worry about running our of it anyway.

I've been waiting a week. I've called them 5 times. Each time I call in and confirm information they have to correct something. The person I spoke to before today spoke perfect English and checked my information at least 2 times before we hung up (ie spelled out e-mail giving examples of words that start with the letters).

I don't think I'm ever going to get my perks. Is there ANYTHING else I can do? Is there some complaint department I can reach out to?

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] gina$zanboti:
I've called 5 times already. Each time I call back and check the status they tell me my ticket is still pending. When we verify information the information is always wrong by one letter. Each time I've spoken with someone we've carefully input my information by spelling out the info slowly and providing examples of words of each letter. The last person I spoke to before today had an American accent so I asked him to double check for me again, and what he repeated back to me was incorrect. So together we made sure that it was correct. Today when I called they had my e-mail messed up again. I f***ing lost it. These people are just screwing with me now. This is ridiculous. Someone is supposed to call me back within 1 to 2 business days. But guess what? It's either one day or 4 days 'cause I know that person doesn't work on the weekends.

I have lots of my contact numbers stored as numbers like +44 (0)1234 567890. However, when I try to dial it on my MDA Pro, the phone dialer complains about the '(0)'. Does anybody else have this problem and is there a solution (other than updating all of my contacts !)

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Charlie VOIP:
MS Bug in telephone codes

I discovered this years ago that Outlook does not allow you by default to store a number in a usable format. Way back in 1999 when i was using some TAPI software to dial the number on my phone from Lotus organiser using a standard modem and a 2 way telephone jack, everything was cool.

Then when the company upgraded to exchandge server and Qutlook we lost this simple capability. We just got used to in putting all numbers in E164 format ie no leading 00 and the ful international code.

But there were lots of apps for outlook that came out for phone day in the uk when we changed to the 01 and 02 number prefixes. They just editied all of the numbers in the outlook data store. You can probably find a shareware or free ware app on www.download.com

http://www.download.com/Outlook-Tools/3000-9694_4-10432268.html?tag=lst-0-1

Good luck

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] PeterMcClure:
OK, so that wasn't the answer that I wanted but I guess that I have no choice. Oh, for my Nokia phone back .....
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] lssong99:
the 0 issue

Actually you don't need to input the (0) in neither Outlook and PDA. Here is how I do this:

In desktop Outlook, always input telephone in this way: +44 (1234) 567890. (

I suppose 1234 is the area code, if no area code, plesae make sure there is a space between +44 and subsequent number)

Sync to your PDA, and when dialing direct from Contact, Although the PDA will dial +44 (1234) 567890 but actually it's still a national call as long as you are in the +44 country.

When dialing direct from desktop Outlook, it will automatically remove the +44 and add (0) in front of 1234 if you correctly setup the country code and area code in your Outlook.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Anton.Valleyman:
All my numbers are +44 (7777) 777777 on purpose so they can be used if I'm abroad. If you have the +44, AFAIK there's no need to have a 0 anyway.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] windrider:
here's a same problem just from a different angle...

Sorry it's not a solution but here me out:

Topic: the mess Outlook and phone dialer phone number format made...

How do you people keep your contact's phone numbers? In which format?

I keep my PC Outlook contacts in the Windows phone dialer correct format

i.e. + [international code] [ (area code) ] [number]

when I inport/sync these contacts with my Qtel9000 I get all the contacts exactly as I entered them in Outlook but the Qtek 9000 wont dial correctly

FACTS:

fact no. 1: Outlook separates phone numbers in groups of>

country code

long distance code (area code)

number

fact no. 2: phone numbers entered this way are stored in a format>

+381 (064) 6185250

fact no. 2: Microsoft Phone Dialer recognises this number and dials correctly

via a voice modem... (headset or speaker/mike required)

Question: what hapens when contacts entered this way into Outlook are sunchronized with the

Pocket PC (Windows Mobile 5.0)?

Answer : all contact's numbers are entered into the Contacts list in the 'correct' format.

(the same format with the bracket, as is noted in PC Outlook)

My findings: the problem arrises when you use your mobile capable Pocket PC

(i.e. the super cool Qtek 9000) and try to dial someone on to his mobile or office phone that are on another

area code...

the Pocket PC, or Windows Mobile 'Phone dialer' dials EXACTLY

as the number is entered in the above mentioned format

(the mobile operator recognises the + at the beggining of the number, but

does not understand the spaces and the brackets!!! and offcourse

the mobile operator returns an error voice message that a wrong number has been dialed!

What am I to do?

Can I find/download/install a proper phone dialer (i.e. MS Phone Dialer) that comes with Windows?

Phone Dialer 1.5

Developed for Microsoft by Active Voice

http://www.activevoice.com/dialer

bottom line is that CISCO systems aquired this Phone Dialer in 2001 and Active Voice discontinued developing/supporting whit app. (link on the Active Voice site is outdated and no support on MS site, as well)

(please do not post solutions as: "you should reformat your number entries etc. because I have 800+ contacts and counting...)

P.S. what I gathered is that this is not device related it is just OS and app related. I had the same problem with my previous Nokia phone... (I did not solve. Actually I thought I will solve with this device...)

I've set the Dialing Rules with my country code and area code (Mobile etc.) So, I don't have a clue what am I doung wrong
[Xperia Z1 Themes and Apps] funky0308:
Hi guys....

I just bought Z1 and root it so I tried to set that unlock feature on this device as well.

This is extremely easy tweak/tip and we all like it on our Xperia S...

Why do to this:

And even it's on Z1 power button on a great position I like the way to unlock device with hmmm...what's the word...let's say "bottom of my thumb"...

You will preserve your power button if you unlock your device with two buttons, instead of pressing one button all the time.

Here we go...(you have to root your device to access system files)

Install root manager, RootBrowser or any browser that will help you to see system files and folders.

Go to system/usr/keylayout

Open file "gpio-keys.kl" with text editor (I'm using RB editor because I'm using root browser app and that's the best editor for me)

Scroll all the way down and you'll see this:

Now add this to "focus" (above last line) "WAKE_DROPPED"

Like this:

Restart and that's it ;)

Enjoy....and say :thumbup: if you like it.
[Xperia Z1 Themes and Apps] gregbradley:
But its too easy to do with xposed framework and xposed additions module. This module also allows you to map ANY key to ANY other key, for both wake, sleep and long press functions

[Xperia Z1 Themes and Apps] funky0308:
Because someone doesn't like X modules - like me.

You would be surprised how many guys hate that app.

This is easy and safe tweak and you need 5 sec to do that.

And until you reflash your ROM you will have this (or if you manually delete line from file) - if you uninstall xposed you'll lose all.

This way will guarantee your device won't slow down or have bunch of modules and apps for different things.

It's code and it's on system level so it'll work always and fast.

I don't like to use modules and apps, I like to do it this way.

Or, if I need, decompile app and MOD style.xml and manifest - it'll always run faster and better then some app.

Hey bro,

When i try to save the file, gpio-keys.kl, an error message appears telling that I can't save the file.

Unfortunatelly, before to find this forum, I've manage to update my phone 2 times using the Sony PC Companion and now, my Android version is the 4.3 and my phone system version is 14.2.A.0.290, my Z1 model is C6943.

Any help please?

I really need change this "wake" settings.

Edit >> Btw, my z1 is a stock phone, I never changed anything and I don't know how to root it and this things... I just done what I saw in the first page of this topic... downlaoded the Root Browser, opened the files and tried to change the "gpio-keys.kl" with the RB text editor. And after I tried and don't achieved any progress, I erased the Root Browser from my phone... but it was a little strange... It was flashing a white page. I turned it off and turn on again and it's normal to me until now.

How do I know if I have or don't have my root?

You can but you must have root privileges.

To get root isn't such a big deal, but 4.3 is fresh on Z1 and devs need some time to find few back doors and bring rooting method on new firmware.

You aren't changing anything with a root, you just give yourself administrative privileges on your device.
