Make sure the videos are in a different folder than your photos.

In the videos folder, create a file (I use ES File Manager, you can use a computer too) called .nomedia (just like that, starting with a period).

Restart the phone and the videos won't show up, but you can access them thru a file manager or media player etc.

edit: If any of that was confusing, I have attached a .nomedia file. Just extract the zip file and you will have the file I am talking about.

Any folder you put this file into the contents will not show up in the stock gallery app.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] chaosdefinesorder:
This is because Gallery is the stock Android video player, so it is supposed to show videos!

My personaly recommendation is to ditch the stock Gallery and use QuickPic instead (free on store) which as well as being a far better image viewer (including immersive mode statusbar hiding!) also has the ability to hide videos from the main list, plus the ability to hide any specific folder your want from the main view.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Badd_blood:
Thanks it seems to have worked even though no file showed up in the folder. How would I remove the .nomedia since it seems to be invisible?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] orangekid:
You can see it on a computer, also there should be a setting in ES Explorer to view hidden files.

Found it.

If you use ES File Explorer.

click on the top left, hit Tools, then near the bottom there's a "show hidden files" option.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Badd_blood:
Thank you I found that setting works great now.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] orangekid:
Awesome, glad we got that sorted.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ashwinmudigonda:
I recently switched phones with my wife. I inserted a microSD card and rooted my Tmobile S4. I installed a new camera app called VSCO Cam and was playing with it. Today, I decided to use the stock camera, and launched it. It first gave me a message that because a microSD card was detected all pictures were going to be saved there. And after a bit, I got a message saying Camera has failed. I removed the microSD card, and I got the same error. I rebooted and got the same error.

I am able to use 3rd party apps. I just downloaded CameraZoom FX and it works fine, but I am unable to switch to the front facing camera and the video recorder doesn't work. Stock camera plain doesn't work.

This is concerning. What could have gone wrong with just rooting and inserting a microSD card? The camera worked fine before that.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ashwinmudigonda:
Never mind. 101 stuff. Cleared cache and data for camera and gallery. Works fine now.

I had a few episodes of the same type of camera error after getting my phone 6 months ago. Reboots sometimes fixed it. Could never figure out what triggered it, but hasn't happened since. ????

I really like the Moko so far.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] Reignogleph MMXI:
I bought the Nillkin V Series because it was the sleekest case I could find. It fulfills the two conditions in the thread title, but the stand function seems a bit unstable.

I take that thing everywhere and it's been holding up quite well.

People have been talking about the Mofi case lately, but it's only available in green, orange, brown and teal (which Mofi laughingly calls blue).

The brown version is only available on ebay.

The new cases by Seido are also worth a look -- though if you want one, you might want to wait for a sale.

MoKo case and I'm very pleased

I got the MoKo when it first came out, shortly after I got the N7. I've been very happy with it, the tablet is held firmly, but can be removed without a lot of force. I have another very similar case that holds the tablet so tight that I'm concerned when I try to remove it (I've decided to use that one for a car mount system I'm building as I know there's no chance it will fall out!) The smart on/off works great and the cover stays closed with magnets also. It took me a little while to get the bend lines to flex properly so that the stand functions worked, but after a few days it has been no problem. It still looks new after 4 months, no frayed edges, it goes with me everywhere, everyday. It's got to be one of the best cases I've ever had (no I don't work for the company, nor do any friends or relatives).:D

[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] Reignogleph MMXI:
Brown is normally a low-key color, but Mofi outlines it in white, which makes it look garish.

I liked the orange case best myself but wish the surrounding plastic were black.

Still, the few people who own both the MoKo and Mofi cases and post here have claimed the Mofi is noticeably better made.

How are the magnets on your MoKo -- does the cover stay closed if you hold it upside down? Does the stand stay in place? I've read good things about those features.

Just purchased and "put on" the rooCASE Origami Slimshell. It's got a polycarbonate shell back and a light flap (which turns on/off the unit) which can be "folded" to support the unit in landscape or portrait mode. I have a Nexus 7 (2012) I'm about to sell on which I used both the Speck Fitfolio and an Incipio unir. I preferred the Speck because of its clasp, but I understand that the Speck version for the Nexus FHD 2013 doesn't have the magnet for on/off ability.

If you want slim, take a look at the rooCASE. With the case on the unit is still just about a half inch thick.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] Sleepy!:
I have a Roocase Origami.

The magnets on that one are so bad that the screen shuts off when the cover is folded back.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] hgoldner:
Not happening on mine. I think there are two different cases called "Origami." Mine is the SlimShell. I did have issues with the unit turning off from the magnets on the Speck case on my 2012 Nexus.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] dakunclear:
The magnet is very good but the stand is a bit stiff even after using it for months and months on end so it doesn't always stay in but that's a minor inconvenience, but for the most part it works fine even when the stand comes out it still tends to stay in the same spot so I'm not really disappointed.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] Reignogleph MMXI:
What's odd about the Play Store's specs for the black, gray/red, white/red and blue/red Nexus 7 2013 cases is that no mention is made of the kinds of materials used or whether there are magnets. What's odd about the ad copy is that no mention is made of features other than the fit's being exact.

I wouldn't want to spend $50 on a case for a $270 device -- even a white 32GB N7 (2013) -- but I'd be especially reticent not knowing if the interior was real or synthetic leather or the exterior, real fabric -- let alone whether the cover would actually stay closed.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] jonnythan:
The Google cover has no magnets anywhere. The gray is a denim-like fabric and the other two felt like synthetic leather to me. All the colors smell horrible.

Don't buy the official Google case.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] Johnny_Fever:
MoKo case has been excellent both function AND value

I use MoKo for Nexus 7 (2013), iPad mini, and iPad Air. It has been outstanding for ALL tablets in a variety of environments. It fits snugly, all ports and holes line up nice and square. Wireless charging perfect. The price <$20 incl. shipping.. (The Apple Air case is almost $90, MoKo gets the job done for under $20 shipping incl. I'd buy a MoKo in a heartbeat for my HP TouchPad if I could locate one. I have about half a dozen other cases for different usages, but the MoKo is on %90 of the time. GOOD STUFF!

Hi guys,

My english is not perfect but i will do my best ;)

I'm new here and that's why i post it here and it would be great if someone could move it to development forum.

I've seen some tutorials here about how to control the led bar with terminal but i have something easier for you.

There is 2 Apps to control the bar. I will try to make them better and try to add another features but i dont know when it will happen.

One of this app is based on sony illumination API but the thing is that you can turn on 3 leds at the same time with the same color. Maybe i dont know how to use it but i dont know how to change color of each led separately. You can turn on Pulse Effect here.

Second app is basen on DooMLoRD tutorial (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2439651) and here you can change color of each led and thats the only thing that this app is doing.

Yeah i know that this apps are so simple but maybe someone will have some fun while using them ;)

If i will make something new i will update this thread.

Have FUN :)

PS: to turn off leds in app where you can control each led just set their colors to black.

Hi there,

I was wondering if any off you could make an app that lets you control the sequence of the illumination bar and make it pulse with the music my phone is an xperia u not rooted or anything its got the official ICS i wish anyone could make an app with music pulse ive been searching for one for a long time hopping for good news.

Thanks. :confused:

It's not possible without root.

Also, you are in the wrong section of the forum. Questions about U are probably better answered in the Xperia U forums :)
[Xperia SP General] Araib93:
[MENTION=4687087]rundgong[/MENTION] is it possible to turn on illumination bar when in certain apps? e.g if I set color to yellow for temple run, every time I launch temple run the illumination bar stays on with yellow glow and when I switch to hangouts it starts glowing green? (would love to set colors for different apps, I mean we have this huge illumination bar so why not make it shine through out the ui? why use it just for notification and not fun :p)

btw using your illumination bar pro app and I must say it is money-well-spend :)
[Xperia SP General] rundgong:
It's not possible to do it properly I think. There is no easy way of knowing what app is currently running.

By using AccesibilityEvents you can probably find out some info about when an app is brought to the front. With that info you can maybe do something that kind of works, but not really.

But I'm not sure about that.
[Xperia SP General] iSiddharth:
The best thing about this app is that it works without Rooting also :laugh:
[Xperia SP General] northever:
I think u can do something. I like pulses but on your apps I can pulse 3 different collor, so maybe first u make it...

Yes there is one just modify a launcher that reacts different, depending on which App is opened. Or just checkout these ways on StackOverflow.

Just got my Nexus 7 today. Been a root user since HTC desire (still use it, even though I've been through One X and others..)

I know the pros of being rooted, but why should I root my Nexus 7 when it's a pure google device already? Are there any significant changes in the ROMs that diff from the official KitKat 4.4?

I'm not searching for an angry argument, would just like to know if there is much for me to benefit from rooting now, at the moment. And, I'm sure someone will ask; I do everyday tasks, but am very curious to geeky stuff and all that.. but, a side from that, is it worth rooting?!

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raunakroy:
Hi All,

I begin by apologizing for being a novice, however I am posting here as a last resort as I have failed to understand what I am doing wrong so far.

I live in Hong Kong and own a M7_UL Sense HTC One (not GPe) running HBOOT 1.54. After reaching home from the store, I promptly unlocked and installed TWRP on it. I also very successfully flashed Bigxie odexed 4.3 (JWR66V) on it and then OTA-updated it to JWR66Y.H1. Just for kicks I also successfully flashed faux123's awesome kernel (runs a whole day without charging this kernel, I swear). I was a happy chappy, seriously, until 4.4 came along and my gf got a N5 and I needed 4.4.

Obviously first step is to S-Off. I know. Else, it wont work right. I tried, like an idiot I tried the 4.4 OTA - ha ha. I actually got a strange blue screen after reboot - took me a while to realize that it didnt work.

So after moderate to heavy reading, I learned that Revone only works on HBOOT 1.44

I cant find my phone (M7_UL) on the Moonshine downloads page - not sure what Asia WWE stands for

And my only other choice was Rumrunner

This ended in stupendous problems:

1. For the love of God, I cannot find the "Uncheck Fastboot" option anywhere. "Settings > Battery" - yeah I dont have it. Attached a screenshot.

2. Soju goes into ........dot dot dot dot....and says cannot find device - which is funny cos C:\> adb fastboot shows my device very well, thank you. Attached a "fastboot getvar all"

I checked the internet connection, disabled antivirus, disabled windows firewall - even tried on my laptop which has no antivirus on it. I read that sometimes it just works. So I mus have tried almost 20 times now - but no luck.

So I gave up. I just wanna know 2 things:

1. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong - and is there anything else I can try?

2. Is it possible in the future that someone will come out with a pure 4.4 odexed ROM that does not need S-Off? Or thats technically impossible due to HTC's hardware restrictions?

Thank you anyway, for reading this far.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaHiLzZ:
Reinstall sense based rooted rom, and try S-Off again. If you have a nandroid backup of your original firmware, that will even be better. Remember to accept any onscreen messages, i generally set timeout to 10 mins.

Thank you and sheer coincidence that you should suggest this. Today I flashed ARHD with Sense 5.5 and tried again (I dont need timeout, I have disabled lock screen completely). I dont see any onscreen messages at all. No luck at all.

I believe the problem might be the "Uncheck Fastboot" option that is not present on my phone. I have no idea why.
