[G2 General] rohan32:
I can't wait to start developing for this device! Thanks to everyone who helped make this happen! :) I will purchase the device when my PayPal has enough to do so. Right now its at about $290 which is awesome. Thanks again, I cannot express my gratitude in words! Developing for devices has always been something I've enjoyed, and I can't wait to do it for such a solid device.

With regards to where builds will be, primarily the first few test builds will show up in my androxfer (located here: androxfer.in/rohan32 but I will just start an AOKP thread in the original development section of this forum. I will also post in this thread when its all ready to go. Needless to say, everyone who wants to know when AOKP builds start rolling, they will know pretty soon.

I usually tweet much more than I should, so you can definitely follow me on twitter as well to be updated on my latest updates. My account is @ rohanXm.

Like I said before though, I definitely won't just be doing AOKP. Even though some tensions between the AOKP and CyanogenMod teams has been raised in the past, I still enjoy doing work for both ROMs and most definitely will be helping out the CM team in getting things running better on the device.

Thanks again to all who made this possible! Can't wait to have it in my hands.

Yo, Ro!

Here's ya some $20

I am ex Nexus 4 owner and from my point of view G2 has a better community. Not in that "we have a better developers or better rom" way.But just that, community.So glad that you guys are here for developers when they need help like this.

As promised, just sent my $50 donation. Thanks to everyone else who donated. I'm glad I'm in a position to have done so.

So, is there an ETA for AOKP 4.4 for my Verizon G2 (I kid of course).

Could OP be edited to add confirmed contributors? Or at least the amount already received?

I would love nothing more than for Rohan to have a G2, he helped make the One XL quite a pleasant device when I had it.

However, I don't have much to spare right now, but if my $10 makes up for someone who pledged but didn't fulfill, I'd think it was worth it. I'm sure there are others in the same boat

Agreed. Been almost two weeks and only one test ROM so far, Some Sprint Kang love would be awesome.
[G2 General] Norside:

[G2 General] tell4ever:
Don't you feel that your comment might be insulting??

Other than developing AOKP Roms rohan contribute with cyanogenmod development, he also has liquid smooth builds,,he sorts out bugs

He develops kernels.he makes Roms more compatible with devices.
[G2 General] big70tom:
And Carbon is based on the work AOKP does... So without AOKP, no Carbon. And I love Carbon, but the more quality guys we have here the better all ROMS get. That was insulting.
[G2 General] zekurosu:
CM, AOKP, Slim, Carbon, PA, PAC etc are just a wonderful options we have for our device..

why generate hate then? cant you just love n let it be? :good:

There was absolutly no negative connotation so I dunno where u got that, it was simply a opinion all the main ROMs bring something to the table I just personaly think carbons better and incorporates all the features of aokp n some.
[G2 General] houstonn:
hey guys.. i wanted to ask. if you know anyone with a ATT variant g2 and willing to part from it at a very reasonable price let me know. I have a dear friend looking and even i want to help chip in.. I normally don't ask for much at all ..

anyways.. if any of you guys are d800 d801 d802 d803 .. i have my alpha release of kitkat 4.4 PA in thread on the original develepment forum. it's purely alpha and testing phase for now..

also.. rohan is already working on 4.4 aokp for you guys even tho he hasn't recieve his phone.. i will collaborate with him and i know we will help each other out alot..
[G2 General] pbedard:
Im sending 10$$ more if he can get the rest cool happy coding get us too
[G2 General] rohan32:
Alright finally bought a G2! This one was from Swappa that was low-priced, had to act quickly on it :)

Sorry for making you wait [MENTION=2774333]MoneymakerM6[/MENTION] but I thought I might as well grab this one since it was $400 and I could pay for it

Should be recieved soon, I'll let you guys know as soon as I do!
[G2 General] MoneymakerM6:
No problem man! Hey houstonn, are you still looking for a G2?
[G2 General] pbedard:
Your welcome !!!!!
[G2 General] Gnarfsan:
Indeed. We need as many developers as possible and they need each other. That's the whole point of open source. Share ideas and the entire community can help you improve them.

Can't wait to try out rohans builds :)
[G2 General] player911:
Also the stock G2 software has some really awesome features. I know some of the AOKP team already has a few G2s (Verizon model I think) and comment on the Quick SMS and Call popups. Also the Quick Memo is very handy (which could probably be fixed via a 3rd party app) but still nice. The ability to write notes on the screen as an overlay as you bounce back and forth. It's good for phone numbers especially.

Everything else I could do without. The Windowed apps are ok but never used. The 3 Finger slide/multitask feature is useless since the default Recents button automatically caches apps, so I find myself using Recents still cause it's faster. I've been using Hangouts for SMS. Nova eventually replaced the LG Home. I really like the Lockscreen though.

The Copy/Paste feature is pretty cool too.
[G2 General] tacosrdelicioso:
You guys are awesome. If ever you two need help with testing or something of the like you can count on me!
[G2 General] djkinetic:
Good to know more devs are picking up the G2!!
[G2 General] pbedard:
Bum to top haha
[G2 General] IamPro:
Also LG come out with their own multi window feature they are including with the LG Flex and I suspect the G2 in feature updates.

Here is a system dump from someone with the Flex which hopefully will help one of you wonderful devs include it in feature stock ROMS *Nudge Nudge Wink Wink*

[G2 General] StlGucci:
yeah i checked the AOKP website is not mention by him or anyone about G2 getting a rom. Hope it aint all bad because we was supposed to get it Monday(we he did get the phone, and its Wednesday.And aint been not word from him at all since
[G2 General] pbedard:
Yup
[G2 General] Steve125:
According to his twitter he has the phone and will start releasing builds tonight or tomorrow. He already has some works in progress on his androtransfer.
[G2 General] Rodeojones:
Just checked Androtransfer and didn't see anything for him - didn't even see his name listed. Where might I find these WIP builds? Wanted to poke around a bit.

●●● MASSIVE UPDATE ●●● Google Search 3.1.8 ●●● Brings Google Experience Launcher

Google Search - Latest Update

v3.1.8​

Changes:

It officially brings Search version 3 (3.1.8 to be exact) that shipped in KitKat to all devices running 4.1+. This includes an updated UI, new refresh animation, among other things.

Because Search houses the Google Experience Launcher (GEL) inside, this update also brings GEL to all devices running Android 4.1+. All you need to do after installing Search 3.1.8 is install the launcher app from here, and voila - GEL for all, not just KitKat devices. I have it running on 4.1, 4.3, and 4.4 on both phones and tablets, and it finally looks perfect.

As I mentioned above, 3.1.8 completely fixes the wonky GEL layout on tablets. As you may have seen yesterday, several things on the Nexus 7, for example, were out of whack - the keyboard was popping when you tapped Home, the icons were old, and the Search box was off-center. All fixed.

Remember: GEL does support transparency in the navigation and status bars, but you need KitKat for that to work. And Google disabled it system-wide on the Nexus 10.

New cards:

Website update card

News topic card

What to watch card

Traffic incidents using Waze on maps.

Recurring reminders.

Real-time scores for rugby teams

See when your packages are ready for in-store pickup.

You can now bring back dismissed cards by pressing Undo.

Download

The APK is signed by Google and upgrades your existing app. The cryptographic signature guarantees that the file is safe to install and was not tampered with in any way. Rather than wait for Google to push this download to your devices, which can take days, download and install it just like any other APK.

File name: com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox-3.1.8.914827.arm.apk.

Version: 3.1.8 (Android 4.1+).

MD5: dea923f514f59ac6d040401bd00d1209.

mirror #2

Once again, if you want GEL to work, install the launcher helper APK from here.

So we don't have to scroll through pages of "Thanks" posts. Fulfill its purpose :angel:

GEL is so unbelievably smooth and lag free. Love it!
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] RossFixxed:
Dear lord it's so ugly. Google have a thing for awful wallpapers but the app drawer has no customisation, no playstore link, a small 4x4 grid and giant icons that just look like a 'my first android phone for kids' vibe to them.

Appreciate the files, and the thread OP, dont' get me wrong. I just find GEL to be terrible. I'm hoping Nova get the transparent bar working on the G.E. ROM I'm running then I'm not looking back :)

You make a good point.

I'm trying to get at&t hot spots to work on a custom rom and the apk that I have I'm not sure if it is the right one I should be doing. Anyone able to put the apk on dropbox or something.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] R_McNeely:
Justice bump. I asked this question a little while ago and never got a good answer. Out of curiousity what APK is it that you've got? I know digging through the processes it is listed as running in my phone. Replicating this would be great for ROMs, especially since I'm working part time at Starbucks....
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] andy_d0:
This is what I tried using...

https://www.dropbox.com/s/fc68tce5vdvyayk/att_hotspots.apk

It shows up as a running app but it doesn't do anything. I'm going to check my bosses phone (S4) tomorrow to see how the app opens when I open it on his phone. On my phone, the app keeps saying there is an update when I select it but it never updates.

I agree that it would be great to get this working. A colleague mentioned that he was able to by both installing the apk and copying the apk to \system\app (for auto running). So far no luck on my end
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] R_McNeely:
This is different than the one that I had tried and looks to be the right one. I downloaded it to my SD card and went to install and got a message saying it was already installed as a system app (makes sense for stock). Have you tried doing it from there to keep functionality of it when flashing ROMs? I would say this is the right track alright.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sigmarelax:
Is your custom rom AOSP-based? Because I think I remember reading that the functionality of "AT&T hot spots" is built into the framework for touchwiz roms.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] andy_d0:
It is. I havent been able to find confirmation either way. Just that the hot spots app is what makes the connection.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dntesinfrno:
First things first you have to make sure your kernel supports wifi tethering, without this you are wasting your time. In all my time on android as long as tethering is enabled in the kernel its just a matter of turning on the hotspot from within the settings menu. I don't recall the touchwiz menus to tell you exactly where the tethering option is but in aosp based roms its under the 'more' option in the wireless and networks section. This is also where you can set the ssid, security encryption, etc for the wireless network you are broadcasting.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] andy_d0:
Hi. It's not wifi tethering that I'm after. I want to use the AT&T wifi service that my office building gets since my cell signal is terrible at work. It's the only thing I miss from the Samsung ROM
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] R_McNeely:
OK so I flashed a ROM and tried installing the apk you were using and it seems to have made a small difference. I'm automatically connected without signing in to Starbucks AT&T WiFi (the way I would usually have to without the app) after having saved the network. Strange thing is looking at the app itself seems to suggest its not running. Running Apps shows 0.00kb in data. I'm not sure if its then a function of the ROM (which I doubt, its never done this before) or the app.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patsan74:
New to Prime.....assumed there was an app for this

I am still a bit dumfounded why there is not an app for this on android. I have used the alternate browser with flash method to get around the issue, but does anyone know if the lack of an android app comes down to a proprietary agreement between IOS and Amazon to prevent/delay an android release?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gordonzhao:
There is a 'android' version, it's just only for the Amazon devices and select Google TV devices. From what I gather they're holding out on devices outside of that.

So I was playing around and noticed you can scroll threw one list of every settings and sub-settings(sub folder) of each setting

Hold down menu button (don't no about doing it from any app. But from whatever home launcher works)

This opens "S Finder" new feature/ app in note 3

Its an app that helps you search through anything on your phone

Anyways, scroll through middle row and click "Help"

Now next to settings click the down arrow

Now you have every single setting and settings option in on one scrollable list

If you learned something new. The Thanks Button helps alot!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] krelvinaz:
Very cool. Don't normally use S Finder since I use the Nova Launcher.

---------- Post added at 11:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:05 PM ----------

Adding S Finder to your background using Nova Launcher

If you are using the Nova Launcher... you can create an S Finder widget and then use that to do the same.

Press and hold on an empty spot on your background

Select Shortcuts

Select Activities

Scroll down the large list and find S Finder

Click on that, then click on the single S Finder that pops up below it.

Now you have S Finder on your background.

Select that... and you can follow what the poster above showed.

Second line scroll over with your Finger/S Pen to Help

Scroll down to Settings and click on the Down Arrow on the right like the above poster did.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] trevor7428:
You can still use s finder on any launcher. I use nova too. Just hold down menu
