You don't need root for gravity - it's fantastic.

I've set it so it turns off when it's lying down face up, face down, and in my pocket. I don't even need to press the button or any button at all to turn it back on, just using the motion of picking the phone up is enough. If you want to lay the phone down but not turn the screen off, swiping your finger across the proximity sensor gives it a "5/10/20 minute timeout" where it won't turn off.

For me it relieves the paranoia surrounding power buttons as I've had a few phones now where the power button eventually dies, which makes sense, we can be turning our phones on and off for what feels like a thousand times a day!
[Moto G Themes and Apps] denzel09:
He means maybe GravityBox, a xposed module, this last need of root..:highfive:
[Moto G Themes and Apps] FindingMoz:
Ah, my bad. Thanks for correcting my misinformation! I think I probably got carried away on how amazing I find Gravity. :good:
[Moto G Themes and Apps] Krisshp:
Hi thanks for that. YES. I tame extra precaution about power button.

I use a great app called. Tap tap tap. Des what gravity screen does but simpler and less features. Via the proximity sensor. Thanks for he app though
[Moto G Themes and Apps] julioluiz:
Moto G owners ought to know about those apps as soon as possible, so they won't screw the power button up just as I did. Even taking extreme care about the way I pressed and avoiding as much as I could the button is now shaking and it is not fixed properly.

Nice tips!
[Moto G Themes and Apps] kabeza:
Another one I've been using is the Proximity Actions app

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=novum.inceptum.proximity

It works with the proximity sensor. You can define waving and holding actions. Eg. hold your finger 1s over the proximity sensor and then lock/unlock, or to wave X times to lock/unlock

The bad is

- it install some ads that show in homescreen at random time

- you have to uncheck a checkbox before uninstalling! Be careful

Hello

At first a big thumbs up for the great forums...following it since years. it´s great you people developed such a great community!

Well let´s come to my problem.....I guess i f***ed up my brand new tablet z

I was trying to install cyanogenmod on it and during that process i guess i made a crucial mistake.

As i already did it once on my old samsung galaxy plus i tried it again and i was doing great.

I´ll save you the details on how i tried to install cyanogen....

Lets get to the problem

Well i have a SGP312 (Wifi 32gb)

4.2.2 android

Built 10.3.1.c0.136

during flashing clockworkmod tablet broke down...

All i get now is a black display and a red led.

Tablet reacts when i press vol. up + power button but nothing happens.

Only the led turns off. lights up white then green, while connected to windows the pc informs that it detected some connected device but nothing appears.

fastboot commands not working it only says waiting for device...

Well i really do hope you guys do have a solution or any advice...

if you need more information just tell i post all you need

thank you

kosebi
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hassanman1997:
just put it into flash mode and flash the stock sony ftf file on it

power off your tablet (in your case it is already done)

download and install the sony ericcson flash tool

download the ftf file for your tab z

hold the volume down button while connecting it to the computer

flash the ftf file

done
[General Topics] triscleeire:
Can anyone here explain to me why the XDA (or WIN2003PE) shifts appointment times whenever I change the timezone?

If I make an appointment to meet someone in Hong Kong next week at 10 a.m while I am still at home in Ireland, does that not mean I want to meet that person at 6 p.m. just because I arrived in HK and changed my time zone. I still want to meet that person at 10 am.

Am I too stupid to get the point or are the MS guys nuts?

Is there anything I can do to have my XDA show local time without unnecessarily shifting all my appointments?

Thanks a lot
[General Topics] kevino:
That isn't the real problem. I find that about half the time I want the shift.

How it should work is that the location field should put the correct time in automatically. So if you say meeting in Hong Kong, you enter HK time etc. Which would be then timeshifted to your current location, but when you went to HK it would revert.

As it is you need to do the timezone calc yourself.

Must admit I have been very confused about what time a flight really is when I haven't done this.
[General Topics] hal:
There should be a TZ field in the appointments

I complertely agree with you. I work in 6 different timezones and it's really boring to have to make the calculation yourself...

I suggest my contact to send a outlook invite so that it comes at the right time...

Anybody knows of a PIM that is 100% PO compliant and supports the TZ feature?

Cheers,

Hal
[General Topics] dalamario:
I use City Time http://www.codecity.net/prodctppc.htm , it's not a PIM but it permit to add appointment based on location, you have only to specify the city where you will have the appointment and the program will add the appointment to your PIM at the correct time.

Example:

I'm in italy but i have to write an appointment to a meeting that will be on mexico city at 18:00 on 20/02/2006

On the Travel Itinerary view of city time i add an "appointment" where i have to write: date (20/02/2006), time (from 18:00 to 20:00) and select the city "mexico city". Then the program will add an appointment to my PIM for 21/02/2006 from 1:00 to 2:00 (there is 7 hours difference between mexico and italy) and all the correct time of the appointment written on the notes. Then when i will travel to mexico and i will change the time of my PPC the appointment for the meeting will appear on the PIM to the correct time giving me the alarm when i need it.

Maybe it's not the best solution but it work without every time calculate the time when will be the appointment on the other country.
[General Topics] prestonmcafee:
You are right

I think the default should be that if I enter an appointment at 11AM when I will be in another country, it should stay at 11AM. It is true that if the appointment is a phone call, one usually enters it in their local timezone and it needs to shift with the timezone, but I'd be happy to change those manually and have the default be to not change. Moreover this seems to be the way Outlook itself works

It looks to me like a klugy way of implementing this, for those who sync with Outlook, is to sync, break the connection, change the timezone and time on the PC, then sync again with "PC overwrites PPC" option in activesync.
[General Topics] Vectre:
I think I have experienced this problem

I didn't even cross time zones. I traveled about 150-200 miles and instead of Tmo under the network I was connected to it had a 6 digit number (310 890 I think). All my appointments shifted. But they didn't shift the same amount. Some shifted by 15:15 and others shifted by 27:15 (hours:minutes). I hadn't set the visiting time zone since last hard reset so it was at its default in Madrid, Spain. If they had all shifted the same amount I would assume that it went to the TZ in Madrid but 2 different shifts???
[General Topics] prestonmcafee:
Yes, I disable network time update for this reason.

Did you drop it? unlikely but the signal amplification module could be damaged. (very unlikely)

Is the odin method any better then the kies method?

I know the Kies restore works as it unbricked my Mega a few days ago.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] ray.azfloortech@gmail.com:
Well this is great news becouse that means some one is now working on the mega.... restoring with odin and kies should be the same the difference is that doing it with kies is the official way to restore. With odin you dont even need the phone serial number. If you know what you are doing try odin metod but if you have no clue do the kies way since kies wont let you upload the wrong rom to your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] latinohot:
can this be de bloated before flashing with odin? also could someone work on getting tethering working (Native Tethering)

Yeah you can flash back to stock using odin. You can't root using odin. Only known root method I have heard of is kingo app. We are stuck with are roms until someone figures out away around the locked bootloader. You will always get a bootloop or bricked phone if you try flashing anything else besides stock.... For now.

I have been wondering that myself, if I upgrade to KK and don't like it, would I be able to downgrade to JB?

I think that if we are able to enter bootmode it should allow us to flash back to JB since it would be a direct flash from Samsung Kies, but that is what I think.

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] johnw91498:
On the latest Kies, there was no need for a restore code.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] starmaster10:
If you updated the official kk update their this is most likely why your touch screen is not responding as this has also been reported on other models of the mega after updating to the new official kk..and trying to go back to your most recent rom could be difficult at this time to do..and the at&t model will be nearly impossible to get back. :)

Is thereany kind of fix that you may know of? I have the same problem and I've tried everything
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] starmaster10:
As far as I know there is no way to go back as the new kk bootloader is locked and prevent going back to the former rom..which in ny books samsung should have not done this new kk update until it was tested more as it has caused a lot of problems for the mega..hopefully some kind of fix will be available for this soon. :)

Did anyone find the firmware for the SAMSUNG-SGH-l527

Build number: I527UCUAMK2

firmware version 4.2.2.

I messed up my Mega it was running firmware version 4.2.2. When I took it to the cell repair store they put 4.4.2 in it. Now I cant use my SVOX voice engine because it force closes on this version. Also a lot of other apps don't run correctly on it.

Now they say that a downgrade is not possible. I thought flashing was an overwrite? When I redo my windows pc I would format the drive and use norton ghost to load an image. I thought that's what flashing was?

So there is no way to go back to 4.2.2
