Knox is great if you care about privacy and permissions as it keeps downloaded applications from accessing your personal info like contacts,pictures and emails. Something like Facebook loves to do.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] butchieboy:
Should I disable sync? Is it important to keep on?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1sagain:
Honestly, You don't need it on unless you are used to it.

The battery life is great, but with sync off it does improve a lot

I have it off. Keeps things nice and cool, also I only refresh my Gmail or fb when I want it.

If i am expecting something important I turn Sync on or I am sitting there manually refreshing

It is so easy to refresh too. Just swipe down on Gmail or FB or other apps have a button on the top right cornor

Hope this helped :):victory:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vadexlux:
Hi,

I have been trying to look for answers in the forum but it is too confusing...My status is like this: I got the phone and installed Siyha 4, that was many months ago, if I look in About this is what I see;

- Android version: 4.0.3

- Baseband v: I9100BGLP2

- kernel v: 3.0.15-Siyah-s2-v4.1.5+gm@ubuntu))

- Build number: IML74K.BGLP8

It is working, but it's showing random hangs, GPS does not work many times...and as I see there is even official support for JB, I would like to upgrade. But, I dont know what steps and even what I should upgrade. Not sure if Siyah I can just upgrade without issues, if then I can install any rom I want of top of it...etc. I would be really gratefull if somebody could tell me:

- what I need to upgrade

- in what order

then I will investigate and manage to do it myself. For example, I am after instructions like this (making them up as an example, no idea if this is correct):

1. upgrade to SiyahKernel S2-v6.0beta5

2. restart

3. install ROM cm-10.1.3-i9100.zip

I know there is no 'best' rom, just asking for advise for any JB (or later if there is stable one) rom that works well (no random crashes frquently, GPS working, I really need that).

thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LYandroid:
1-to flash stock roms(tar extension) use odin or to flash custom roms (zip extention)then you need a custom recovery (eg ClockWorkMod).

2-if GPS is really matters to you,then dont flash cm10.1 is it have a known issue (gps is not working 99% of all time)see known issues for cm10.1:

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Known_Issues_page_for_i9100

if you want stock rom(eg 4.1.2) look here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1544487"

if you want custom rom with working gps use(in my opinion)neatrom lite:

guide to flash with odin:

always check the roms with md5sum check.

Hope it helps.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vadexlux:
thanks!

OK, so let's say I'll go with stock rom (I'll remove most of samsung crap with RootDelete)...What about Siyah kernel I installed:

- is it replaced when installing stock rom?

- if not, can I update it to latest Siyah version? should I?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LYandroid:
yes,because every rom has a kernel,but if you want Siyah kernel,after flashing the stock rom flash Siyah kernel again.if you want to update to stock jelly bean 4.1.2 then flash latest Siyah kernel.

Sorry for bad english.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] gwuhua1984:
Is there any way to add additional codecs on to the stock video player?

If not, is there another video player that would work like the stock video player that could shrink the video player on to home screen for multitasking purposes?

The reason is that I have a lot of mkv and rmvb videos, and don't really want to go through the hassle of coding all of them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Misterjunky:
re: video player

The best one at the playstore is MX Player Pro, I think it even plays more formats than

the stock video player and it looks almost the same but it has a lot more features on options.

The MX Player Pro does have a different codec for different phones,

if I recall it automatically downloads/install the correct one.

It plays mkv, rmvb and just about any and all other formats.

I never found a video which it cannot play.

Here is the playstore link so you can check it out: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mxtech.videoplayer.ad&hl=en

Its really excellent.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] gwuhua1984:
I've been using MX Player Pro too, just that I want to be able to really utilize Note 3's multi tasking features more. The Note 3's video player has a pop out feature when it'll shrink and continue playing on your home screen while you do other stuff. Just wondering if there's any other video player that could do that too.
[General Accessories] thorneh:
Hope someone can help. I have had an XDA IIi for a few months now, and apart from the daily crashing, I absolutely love the unit (crashing easliy remedied by quick soft resets). I now have one problem though- my O2 Blue headset connects OK, but any incoming calls are just silent when picked up (apart from a slight buzz). Replaced with another O2 Blue headset and problem persists. Headsets are OK with other phones (Nokia 6310i). This problem started 1 month ago and before then it worked fine. Any ideas?
[General Accessories] Col_UK:
i've had this with my car h.f.k, only way I've found to solve it so far, is a hard reset and then re-pairing

soft reset doesn't work

deleting pairing doesn't work

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] N2PC Tech:
Can anyone assist me with the issue of how to get this SGSIII out of boot recovery mode/

Odin gives a FAIL, PIT Partition not found error! The phone itself gives Odin: Flash read failure
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Some more details would help me understand better. What I'd love to know is.

1. What is the current state of the phone ?

2. Is it rooted or Are you trying to root ? If so what process.

3. Are you trying to flash a rom or Recovery or what ?

4. Last but not least. What rom and version you currently have on there ?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
You didn't specify how you got here .What did you try to do, that left you in this state ? Am I assuming correctly that you somehow managed to wipe system partition and have only the stock recovery ?

If the phone is in Recovery mode, Odin will not work. You will need to reboot the phone into Download mode. To do this, you pull the battery out, volume down, home, and power button at the same time until you see the Samsung logo, and then release. You will see a warning message with bright yellow triangle and will say Downloading. Once that is done, connect to the PC.

Using ODIN, first flash a custom recovery such as TWRP. If you want to go back to stock, this is the time you flash Stock rom instead of the recovery.

If you want custom rom, copy the rom zip to the External SD card and then put that in the phone and flash via Custom Recovery.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] N2PC Tech:
Sorry.....

the phone was loading that QHSUSB_DLOAD driver on windows every time i plugged into my PC. I then tried to Odin to a Stock TMO Rom, and that was when i got the Boot recovery mode screen. i have been trying to use the buttons to get into download mode, but that doesnt work either!:confused:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
QHSUSB_DLOAD means your device is hard Bricked. Please follow De-Bricking thread in this sub forum.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] N2PC Tech:
Thats how i got it out of hard brick mode. i used the sdcard image method, and that was as far as the phone went: boot recovery mode!:fingers-crossed:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Then perhaps you should have asked on that thread for next steps. Anyway, if you are still getting the Qsub message when connecting to pc that means its not out of de-brick yet. I'd suggest following there.

Also please first put the phone in download mode and THEN connect to the PC. Tell me what happens in that case.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] N2PC Tech:
Perhaps not Perseus! AS stated........Its out of the brick mode and is now stuck in boot recovery mode! The method to get it into download mode is null, because it will only go into the boot recovery mode when i push those buttons to try and get it there! NOTE: its now in MSM9860 when plugged into the PC.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Please note, the button combo slightly differs for Recovery versus Download mode

Recovery Booting - Power +Home + Volume UP

Download Mode - Power +Home + Volume DOWN
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Do you still have the sd setup from the debrick thread? Can you see if you can get back to download mode by booting from that again?

If so, try flashing the Stock firmware again, and if you still end up in the same spot maybe try again, but this time flash CWM or TWRP recovery from Odin, then flash a Rom from recovery.

And I can't remember right off but did you try factory resetting from recovery?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] N2PC Tech:
Sorry, but those methods aren't and haven't worked since my phone came out of brick mode! I had already constantly tried that!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
In that Case boot the phone using the files of the SD Card as per the De-Brick Thread. See if you can into Downloading mode that way.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] N2PC Tech:
Tried that method also and no luck! :confused:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Just to clarify, the boot recovery mode you are referring to, does it have the binary/flash count, system status, etc? Basically what do you see?

It sounds in some ways you are in download mode, but recovery is a very different mode, so just to clear up any confusion.....

Hi devs,

During development of my app (see my signature), I researched a bit and finally found a quite nice way to implement a custom keyboard which is only shown in your app easily.

Much of this is taken from Maarten Pennings' awesome guide here, thanks to him and feel free to read it as well.

So I thought I'd extend his work with this guide which also takes a look at why you'd want to use one or the other keyboard. Enjoy! :victory:

View attachment 2347941

Congrats, you have finished adding a CustomKeyboard and can now test and further improve it :good:

Read on if you want to theme it further (let's face it, the default theme is still from the first versions of android).
[Java for Android App Development] SimplicityApks:
Theming your Keyboard

Theming the KeyboardView

To make your newly created keyboard fit more to the overall style of your app, it is crucial to theme it.

I hope you found this helpful and I could save you a bit of work. If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to post them here!

[Java for Android App Development] SimplicityApks:
You mean you want to have a KeyboardView in your app with the layout files from the HTC keyboard? Sure, that'll work, you only need to get the resources (decompile keyboard app?). Some layout adjustments might be needed of course...

[Java for Android App Development] SimplicityApks:
OK, sorry, I didn't read the title of your post...

That should be possible, although I have no idea about decompiling and modding. From what I understand, you could try making an XPosed module, that should work and is better since it can be applied at runtime.

[Java for Android App Development] misleading93:
Thanks for the tutorial, really helped me with my project as I need a custom keyboard. But I would like to ask, how do I add a second page to the keyboard as I need more entries to it. Is there a way to add like a small button in the keyboard 1/2 and when you press it, it'll go to the 2nd page of it.
[Java for Android App Development] SimplicityApks:
Mmmmh didn't think about that so far... Have you tried wrapping 2 keyboardviews in a viewpager?
[Java for Android App Development] misleading93:
I think I got it somehow.

I made a small key in the current keyboard. An example maybe like SYM which represents Symbol, so if you press it, it'll go to the view on keyboard full of symbols. Just had to repeat actually.

Edit: It seems like I can't post the code or part of it. Says that my post was flagged by the system and was blocked from submitting. I want to show how, but it seems it doesn't allow me haha.

Lol sometimes the system is against us..., well nice you figured it out ;)
[Java for Android App Development] kva123:
I am lost/stuck

First off I would like to thank Simplicity for such a simple guide and tutorial on how to set the custom keyboard up. Secondly even if it was very simple I obviously cannot follow directions and have done something wrong and even though my custom keyboard pops up and I am able to press the button, I am not able to get the edittext field to register the onclicks of the keys thus resulting in the buttons doing nothing. I have pmed Simplicity and was requested by him to post this question in the thread for others in case anyone else runs into this issue.

I have attached both the xml and java file to the post.

Hope someone can help and also hope this problem I ran into will help others if they are stuck at the same place.

Once again a big big big Thanks to SimplicityApks.
[Java for Android App Development] SimplicityApks:
Had a look at your class and the xml keyboard layout again and everything seems fine to me so far... Question is how you implemented the keyboard in your activity layout and what happens when you register your text field in the onCreate(). It would be helpful if you could show us these parts of your code.

Other than that, does your onKey() method in the CustomKeyboard get called when you press a key? (Put a Log.d(..) statement or debug stopped in there to find out)
[Java for Android App Development] kva123:
Hey sorry for the late response I just figured out what the problem was but now I have no idea how to fix it. The problem is here

android:orientation="horizontal"
android:paddingTop="10dp"
android:padding="10dp"
android:descendantFocusability="beforeDescendants"

The Reason I have that is because I am trying to avoid my app from setting my EditText as a focus as soon as the activity starts. As far as I am aware I do not know of any other methods that can work around that. Let me know what you think I should do.
