[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdp:
What is the best alternative to the on-screen buttons out there today? Pie Control sounds okay but not as quick and intuitive as I'd like. Is there anything else that's similar to what the Palm Pre used to do? Example...swipe up from bottom to go home, swipe up and down or up and right for recent apps, and some type of swipe left or up and left to activate Back.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erikivy:
I use Nova Prime and it has gesture features built it. You can install the free version to check out what options are in there.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdp:
How about something outside of a specific launcher? Standalone would be preferred so it could work with anything. Is there anything that offers bottom swipes for home/recents and a side swipe for Back?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mpovolo:
Swipe home button is the closest I have found
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codemansGT:
Check out lmt launcher. Its not a launcher in the traditional sense. Its system wide and has pie and gesture control.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
This disabled the hardware buttons on the N4: add `qemu.hw.mainkeys=1` in system/build.prop/. Guess it will also work on the N5. Use LMT Launcher http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1330150 or Pie Control on Google Play for navigation, link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jun.ace.piecontrol.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdp:
Thanks, LMT Launcher with its invisible swipe areas looks to be exactly what I was looking for, I'd rather activate this stuff with an edge swipe instead of using the PIE controls. Gestures might work as well on a larger screen. Can anyone speak to how well the invisible swipe areas work, and if this app works on 10" tablets like the Nexus 10?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdp:
Reading around it seems like LMT might not work on Nexus 10. Any options that do? Primarily interested in swiping up from the bottom of the screen to trigger home/recents similar to Palm Pre, as opposed to PIE controls.

Can anybody please point me to a ported version of the 4.2 Samsung official keyboard with 3x4 layout for Jellybean 4.3

I cant seem to get used to qwerty and third party apps are just too laggy compared to the stock jellybean 3x4

It will be much appreciated

I just noticed this morning that my stock power adapter/wall wart/whatever you want to call it 'buzzes' while plugged in. It doesn't appear to affect charging, but I was curious if anyone else has experienced this. I'm in the US so it's obviously a 120V adapter.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xXPaToSoNXx:
I am unable to update my HTC one to 4.3 and I have been told it's because I am not stock android. Is there any way I can find out?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elfrisi:
Does your One has a custom ROM, or is it like it came out of the box?

Stock Android could be a clean Android, no Sense UI. You can only get a Stock Android on ONE if you have a GPE, or converted it. If it's neither of those, then you have Sense. Now, it depends on the carrier you have. AT&T, T-mobile, and Sprint already released the 4.3 upgrade. Verizon is still messing around with it.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xXPaToSoNXx:
Sorry I meant stock sense. I am on Vodafone UK and the update for that came out a week ago. I'm pretty sure have not put any rooms on
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] 4thcitysaint:
bell stated that the note 2 will get the 4.3 update starting november 29, 2013 but noted "timing varies by device and carrier/retailer"

so here the story

i got this phone from mobilicity and currently using it under bell service. So my question is; who do i get the updates from? bell or mobilicity?

thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkshado:
Neither: the updates come from Samsung. In your case using a T889V, you'll have to look at the Wind/Mobilicity/Videotron release schedule.

DISCONTINUED.

DISCLAIMER:

Rooting your phone and using custom Recoveries and ROMS have risks and may result in bricking your device, and has nothing to do with Google or the device manufacturers. In case of any mishap I am not responsible if you brick/ruin your phone in any way.

Basic computer skills are required and minimal knowledges about phones and phones utilities too.

Make sure that whatever you do, you are doing it at your own responsibility.

Max Inception is a port ROM from a clean AOSP Mediatek ROM.

UPDATE 12.02.2014

- changed completely the ROM, both in looks and functionality

- fast, smooth, stable

- optimized: deodexed, zipaligned, init.d support, etc.

Be patient on first boot; being deodexed it will take a little bit more time to boot than a normal ROM.
​

UPDATE 28.11.2013

- fixed proximity sensor issue

- removed autobrightness fix, since it seems to not work well in ported ROMs.

If you use version 1.4, to install you need to do a "clean install - wipe everything". If you use version 1.1, just clean cache and dalvik cache and isntall over it.

If that DualSimRingtone app I put in it doesn't work anymore (it worked on my tests), to solve that flash the Modd attached to post #3.
​

First release 21.11.2013 INFO

- the name means "beginning, origin", and I thought is apropriate since this is a clean mediatek original ROM.

- various fixes: brightness and autobrightness, screen colors and depth, GPS (new fix), network, tethering, sounds, callerID matching, and some others.

- fixed computer connection as USB Mass storage in any windows (no ZTE drivers needed).

- optimizations for ram, kernel, cache.

- more speed and smoothness.

- some UI improvements.

- possibility to use 3G in both SIMs.

- for GPS all needed files are included.

- rooted with koush's superuser app.

- only few apps very necessary added (like mobile uncle).

- for adblocker, the hosts file is properly configurated.

You can see some screenshots in SCREENSHOTS SECTION.
​

Gapps are included essential, and if you want whole package just flash "Gapps to complete zip".
​

INSTALL INSTRUCTION:

To flash a new ROM properly, you need one of my recoveries (for these I'm sure they works).

1. Reboot to recovery.

2. Do a nandroid backup or backup in cwm.

3. mount USB Mass Storage and delete from sdcard these three directories:

.android_secure

Android

LOSTDIR

4. Copy ROM zip or zips on sdcard

5. Eject mass storage from computer and then unmount in recovery

6. wipe all/factory reset or pre-flash wipe in recovery

7. wipe or erase dalvik cache

8. flash zip from sdcard, choose ROM zip, flash it and reboot, or if you flash my ROM version 3.3, the phone will reboot itself.

That's all, this is the correct way to flash any new ROM in any phone thru recovery.
​

QUICK GPS FIX:

If you want to quick fix gps, do all steps from this post, without downloading MobileUncle - is already installed in ROM.
​

For downloads check post #3.

Thanks,

I know about battery bug - it's fixed now, I hadn't time to upload, but I will do it now (just forgot to change two files).

I don't understand what's the problem with autobrightness and screen off?!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dacecar:
since when I have automatic brightness on the screen turns off and I have to remove the battery to turn back. sometimes when I adjust the brightness in manual. thanks

---------- Post added at 01:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:57 PM ----------

as happens in some Roms like miui. in the latest versions of the smart max and max flavor don`t gives me this error. here you can see: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RdVJM5r5Swc thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Deleted member 5186178:
Hm, that is not happening in my phone. I use automatic brightness in all ROMs, and I don't have any problem like that you say. I heard about some phones with that problem (you are number 3). I don't know how to fix that if I can't reproduce it. Maybe is a hardware issue.

.........

Now that I saw your movie I'm convinced is something related to hardware fault. Look at my test with brightness on Max Smart http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTLzYJbTtHI

You can see I burn my finger on that slider and nothing happens with my screen.

........................

I understood that some of the ZTE v967s phones, recently bought, have a different CPU, mt6589M not mt6589W like in my phone, and therefore the GPU is not 240, but 160. The stock ROM is right for that configuration, but other ROM like Lewa, Miui or my ported ROMs need more resources. Maybe you have one of those phones.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dacecar:
ok. thanks anyway. return again to the max flavor if it works properly and updates go testing you do for if you find the solution. you me at your disposal as beta tester. greetings and thanks

And its also very common on Zte devices, some units (depending on build date) coming with different sensors like I.e. : magnetic/ LCM/ and even the camera

[Miscellaneous Android Development] yelybely:
I have the same problem with auto brightness, in every rom I've tried so far, including this one. Otherwise I think this rom is great! Many thanks for your continued development!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dacecar:
hello. you know any solution to the problem?. I'm trying to change the brightness settings with Gravitybox and have gotten some control over the problem. I will discuss the brightness chart I'm using, here and another forum to see if we all get some solution. a greeting
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
That's easy. You just need to install antutubenchmark and take a look:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
If anyone is bothered by the bounce effect present in all ROMs built on that structure (v7), it can't be completely disabled, but you can reduce it. In settings=>developer there are in Drawing section three entries: Window animation scale, Transition animation scale and Animator duration scale. Make sure all these are off. The result is visible.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dacecar:
Hi [MENTION=5186178]carliv[/MENTION]

Differences between your roms

Thanks for your hard work Carliv!

Can you inform us about the main differences between your roms in terms of functionnality/perf/kernel and OS versions in the big lines ?

I am a big fan of max flavour 4.1 but I see you updated max inception basing your work on new aosp mtk rom (v7). I enjoyed max inception 1.1, what are the improvements on this new one since you say there are many differences: betters graphic drivers? newer kernel and OS version? new governors and schedulers ( I'd love that, I miss smartass v2)?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] satiros:
So far smart previous is the best, i havent tried inception yet

But i will soon
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Dovahpig:
Carliv in your opinion how is the battery life compared to max flavour slim 3.4?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jcabad:
Carliv, I'm user of your Flavour ROM, wich is perfect. But as I am a Flashmaniac I have tried Inception 1.4.

Sometimes suddenly the screen goes to blank and the only way to recover is to take battery out. Of course I have seen that I am not the only one with that problem, but, can we expect that this will be fixed?.

In the meantime I have gone back to Flavour. Thank you.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
You can read in every ROM's thread about features but in the end you need to try one to see what's in it. Max Inception just get an update with proximity sensor fixed (same version as 1.1).

------------------------

I just upgraded Max Smart to Android 4.3.

-----------------------------------

That depends on everyone routine of using the phone. I'm not an intensive user, so for me the battery last even 5 days.

-----------------------------------

I think that problem is fixed now in all ported ROMs (it is manifesting only in these).

Hello [MENTION=5186178]carliv[/MENTION]

I found something about the problem of automatic and off screen brightness. I have tried some chinese roms and there are some that do not give me the bug and others that if I get it. based roms or 1.0.3 using the 1.0.3 files to port them, do not give me the bug. based on 1.0.5 or 1.0.5 files used to port them, if I get the bug.

roms for example do not give me the error:

rom 1.0.3 minideal

acer rom needrom

rom lewa O.S.

ui emotion of lewa forum

roms for example if I get the error:

rom 1.0.5 of minideal

miui O.S.

max flavour 4.1

max inception 1.1 and 1.4

I'll try the rom max inception 1.6 to confirm that the fault does not. I hope my review will help

greetings and thanks for your work
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dacecar:
the rom runs perfectly

no screen off bug present

good job carliv

[Miscellaneous Android Development] yelybely:
Good detective work! But are you sure problem is solved in this rom? You change any settings in Gravitybox?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dacecar:
I confirm, the problem is solved in max smart v3, max blue 1.1 and max inception 1.6.

three bigs roms

I use gravity box after trying everything works properly
[Miscellaneous Android Development] grogi:
What a phenomenal ROM, thanks carliv for great work. Inception is my favourite from the MAX Range :)

One thing I have noticed - but it probably does not affect 99% of users. Version 1.4 had, what seems like a newer version with updated layouts, phone application. It behaved properly with custom dpi settings. Version 1.6 shares the same scaling problems as MAX Flavour, MAX Blue etc. all have.

My question - is it possible to share the auto-brightness fix and port it to 1.4?

Thanks again

After the 2 minutes connection, it will keep showing wifi connected signal by no response anymore.

Is it a common issue in MTK 6589 phone?

Max Inception updated to version 2 final and stable.

New base for port, seems better. Multilingual, fast, stable, smooth and pleasant.

Gapps included minimal, live wallpapers support.

[Nook Touch General] idoit:
NST is my first Android device ever. That shows my noob streaks... :)

There's this inner challenge inside me that used to prevent me enjoying this device as it is. If (and that's a big unlikely if) sometime in future, someone comes up with a way to upgrade NST to let's say Android 2.3, what happens to our apps that we run now. I mean, let's assume I install AnkiDroid and use it extensively on my NST. If I decide, given such upgrade exists in future, to upgrade Android to 2.3, what happens? Would I be able to migrate all my data with ease? I guess this question holds true for any kind of Android tablet too.

It was just something that bugged me.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
If a truck ran over my Nook it would take me $59 and about 15 minutes to get back everything like it was.

A newer Android version would not be a problem with applications/data per se.

If I had to hack new versions of system files, that would take some effort.

I have about 500 Megs of data on my Nook, all of it on my desktop and all of that backed up.

Migrating data should be the least of your problems.

With AnkiDroid you still have Anki desktop to do major operations anyway.
[Nook Touch General] idoit:
How do you personally do the regular backup? can you please elaborate on "A newer Android version would not be a problem with applications/data per se."? Thanks.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Basically, there is no unique data on my Nook.

"Last reading point" (LRP) is about it.

I treat portable devices as ephemeral.

I use adbsync.exe to sync my Nook to my desktop data sources.

I do this for my handy too.

The handy does have unique data on it, the photos.

I sync back to the desktop for those.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisrj28:
So I have been having this issue for quite a few months, I don't remember exectly when it started but it has plagued me for a long time and I don't know the cause.

My issue is thus; I am always connected to a good data connection whether it be 4g or lte, that's not the issue. I can download, upload and such but my problem comes in the form of staying connected.

What I mean is not that lte or 4g goes away as it still says connected, it's just that it stops downloading. For example downloading N.O.V.A. 3 from the market is now impossible as it will download for roughly 1 min, maybe 1 1/2 minutes and then just stop downloading. Full bars, LTE signal good but it just won't download. I can no longer download large files as they start and then the connection just stops. Makes downloading new roms a chore and a headache.

If anyone has this problem or can shed some light it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
