[G Pad 8.3 General] ehong:
Still waiting for my perfect 8" tablet

I looked at the Note 8 long and hard for a few months and decided that the lower resolution screen (I have too many already), plastic build and slower processor are enough for me to skip that for now. Have been waiting for the next gen Note 8.0 to see if they can fix most of my dislikes but just couldn't resist pulling a trigger on Cyber Monday on a beautiful white LG G-PD 8.3 for $250 from newegg. Very happy with it except one con - the display is a little dim. (Used the Screen Adjuster app helped to make it less yellow and brighter) Also would like an active stylus but GPad will do for now. There is just no better 8" android tablet out there than GPad unless you want to pay extra extra for the fruit brand. You might want to wait for the next gen Note 8.0 to make your decision. If you are not using your S-Pen that much, get a reduced priced GPad is good too. I am now flashing the CM11 rom (yes, it's available now for GPad) to see if I would like that setup.

Cheers.:cowboy:
[G Pad 8.3 General] Bateluer:
I'm uncertain regarding the LG model, but I'd have to say AOSP on the Noteo 8 would free up a couple GBs of space on the internal storage.

I bought the Note 8 in early April 2013, so I've owned it for most of its life. Samsung's support of it is has been . . . above average, in comparison to other tablets. LG's not exactly known for timely updates, but the GPe sku would compensate for that. In theory.

I don't really use the stylus much, my primary use is reading, which the higher resolution display would greatly improve.

Edit - What I really want is an ~8in Android tablet, with 32GB onboard storage, SD slot, 1080/1200p IPS/AMOLED screen, Snapdragon 800, 3GB of RAM, and support for US TMO LTE frequencies. Sadly, I don't think it exists.
[G Pad 8.3 General] ehong:
32GB onboard storage is a little tough unless you can do an Apple

Unfortunately that I don't believe that you will see an 8in Android tablet with 32GB onboard storage anytime soon. The Snapdragon 600 actually runs really fast on the Gpad. As for TMO LTE, I though that Gpad is going to have an LTE version. In any case, unless you can go get an Apple iPad mini 2 (is that an insult? hopefully not :fingers-crossed:), you might be out of luck for now to find your perfect 8in tablet.

[Moto X Q&A] Talguy:
So I am a proud owner of a VZW Moto X DE, purchased during the cyber monday deal. I have yet to receive my phone but trying to hunt down where I can get some of my favorite features of CM10.2 I current have running on my HTC Rezound. Most of these featrues I found can be installed with Xposed modules, but one right now. That feature is the ability to reply to SMS via a popup floating window. This window comes up if you hit the Reply Button in the SMS notification found int he notifiication shade.

Anyone know of a Xposed Module or App that will allow me to have this feature? It doesn't have to be exact but would love some kind of floating reply window so I don't have to excite my current screen/app/whatever

Have you tried Textra? I use it and enjoy it very much.
[Moto X Q&A] BrokenWall:
Check out https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thinkleft.eightyeightsms.mms

It is a SMS app that is designed for KitKat, it is a very simple installable app from the PlayStore that is basically as the dev says, CM/AOKP SMS/MMS Application
[Moto X Q&A] Talguy:
8SMS looks like exactly what I want.

chompSMS can also be configured to have pop-ups with various feature options.
[Moto X Q&A] cicatriz63:
If you are looking for something like CM then 8sms is what you want. It has popup, quick emoji, group mms and all the other goodies CM has. It's basically a direct port. By far the best replacement I've used. Only thing I wish there was a bit more customization for message threads. But if you like the CM mms then this is the one for sure.

This is the actual CM sms app ported for our phone. No root needed. I've been using it for days and it's perfect.
[Moto X Q&A] Talguy:
I didn't see that. Thanks for the link. wish the app had the option to toggle between the Light and Dark themes for the messaging app. I usually like the lighter themese but I know going with a darker theme will save battery on a AMOLED screen.

Thanks everyone. Its either beteen the direct CM port posted in the link above or 8SMS
[Moto X Q&A] mpetruzz:
You can select a dark theme in the cm SMS app. Its all the way down at the bottom. I have it installed and am using the dark theme.

[General Questions and Answers] erdapa:
Here is my situation:

I have a friend with 2 Samsung phones. One is from T-Mobile(SGH-T989) and, the other is from AT&T(SGH-I777). The T-Mobile phone is the better phone (she likes the camera) but, she is tired of carrying both phones around. If I can unlock the carrier and put her AT&T service onto the T-Mobile phone....I get to keep the old AT&T phone as payment. It'd be like a xmas present to myself.... if I can pull it off.

I'm here today because, I've spent weeks trying and I'm getting the feeling I can't do this alone.

My biggest concerns....Is my quest/learning adventure legal? And, what exactly is it going to take to get the job done?

I use a linux pc (ubuntu 12.04). I have/use VirtualBox(4.1.12). I have/use the Eclipse build enviroment and Android SDK. The biggest problem I'm having is none of them recognize the phone as being plugged in. adb is working but, I get a blank line when I run 'abd devices'. I ran 'lsusb' and the phone isn't listed. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you :)

[Zooper Widget General] RiseUp:
I use Samurize on my desktop PC to display widgets in the way that Zooper Widget does on Android. One thing I love and use quite a bit is the ability to display graphs of data over a specified period of time. An example of what I use this for on my PC is graphing the temperature inside my home over the last 6 hours so I can easily see trends.

Is there any way to do this with Zooper? Or, if not, with any other android app? My various searches have led me nowhere. :(

you should get informed before you reply noobie
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trent999:
You are right about the Nexus4 update to 4.4.1 being available. It was announced via Reddit at 22:57 last night. I had not checked to see the updated announcement you quoted when I replied a couple of hours later.

Still, don't be rude.

I have not gotten ota notices yet for either my nexus 4 or 5 or 7 2012 or 2013 and I am hearing of some issues with 4.4.1 like a reduction of signal strength, etc. I have not heard anyone else report of your problem with time being able inaccurate.

When my devices get the update, either by me flashing it or by eventual ota, I'll check the time on each and see if I notice a similar problem.

Are you noticing any issues with signal strength being less ? It might be affecting T-Mobile users most.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Riekr:
As you have noticed starting with android 4.4 Google decided to show a "you may want to call" page when tapping the telephone icon instead of opening the dialpad directly.

If you are one like me willing to use quick t9 dialpad directly here is how to accomplish that task.

Using any app letting you start an intent like llama or e-robot you can fill:

Here some screenshot with e-robot:

Both the mentioned apps are available for free on play store as probably many others with similar features and both of them let you create command shortcuts on your home.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Riekr:
That's a fake link for importing actions inside llama. To use it you must click on the link from whithin a device with llama installed (if you use firefox hold your finger on the link and wait until a popup appears, then select open with llama app)

i used Llama and E-Robot to test it, and [MENTION=4619572]Fuzzy13[/MENTION] used AnyCut, the procedure varies depending on the app you decide to use.

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to get the xda exec to ask for confirmation before connecting to GPRS. Mine keeps auto connecting during the night (i guess for msn messager) and there for running up my phone bill.... I would like it to ask me before connecting.

Simerly is there anyway to get it to prompt for which connection to use before conecing, I have gprs, 2 dialup ISP's and a work dialin,,, It always defaults to gprs when selected to auto detect but I would really like to be able to select which connection it is going to use before it connects

[Nook Touch General] yeahman45:
I have replaced some fonts on the nook and everytime at some point, i get issue with it.. it does not boot anymore... and every time i need to do a factory reset, re-root. Is there steps/precautions i need to be aware when replacing fonts on the nook or adding apps in system/app??

I have an htc desire rooted and i have never had issues like that on it; i have replaced fonts, edited files like build.prop or key mapping, added/deleted/renamed apps in system/app and i never had a single issue... maybe the nook is different i don't know
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
To answer your question, no, it's not dangerous.

Linux doesn't care at all about fonts.

So if you have a problem with fonts, use ADB and logcat and actually figure out what the problem is.

Even with flashing dots, ADB and logcat (and dmesg) work.
[Nook Touch General] yeahman45:
adb does not detect the nook while it is booting... it only detects when it's booted or when i use cwm
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Well, apparently you are bashing some non-font thing.

How are you copying over the font?

Are you using some wonderful "Insta-Mega-File-Masher-Omatic"?

Which font are you replacing?

Stick to basics.

Get your Nook working with 1.2.1 since that is where you should be.

Get ADB working.

Remount /system r/w, adb reboot, still working? Yup.

Remount /system r/w, adb push your font to /system/fonts/temp.ttf, adb reboot, still working? Yup.

Remount /system r/w, then:

stop
mv whatever.ttf old.ttf
mv temp.ttf whatever.ttf
reboot
[Nook Touch General] yeahman45:
I am replacing Caecilia, HelveticaNeue and Trebuchet.... i using adb push to replace the fonts .. i use these commands

adb shell

#su

#mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system

adb push myfont.tff /system/fonts

adb reboot

sometimes, every fonts is replaced properly... and everything is alright.. sometimes, replacing the 3rd font and i reboot .. i gets locked.. sometimes it's the 2nd font, it's random.. or sometimes i push an app to system/app.. everything is alright... then i push the same app, it does not boot.. it's all random

how do you activate adb while booting... adb does not detect my nook while booting...
[Nook Touch General] David0226:
A comment; I have done some playing around with fonts over a year ago and if I recall correctly, the system needs fonts files with names Caecilia, HelveticaNeue and Trebuchet. You can rename other font files to have those names, but those names must exist.

Next, a question; Is it possible that the font files you are attempting to use are so big that they are filling up the file system?
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Filling up the partition was one thing I thought of, but since /system is normally ro that didn't seem like it could affect anything.

Do a df and see what space you have left.

How big are the files?

If you are trying to make this do Chinese, just replace one file.

Linux doesn't use fonts.

Android only uses the Droid fonts.

Opera Mobile will use DroidSansFallback.ttf

ReaderRMSDK.apk uses the rest of the fonts.

Seems to be an issue with both Bells versions. I had issues when i uploaded. I will recompile to be sure and re-upload soon. If you can't wait, i would suggest a Telus version (has no bloat) just need to add your APN settings to enable data.

Installation:

You can install the new Bootloader IF YOU WANT. IT'S OPTIONAL. - Thank you -Mr. X-

If you decide to install it, please be aware that you will NOT be able to downgrade to 4.1.x bootloader. If you need to know if a file is safe to flash please refer to post #3 by [MENTION=1016795]loserskater[/MENTION]

Backup your data

Factory reset (Highly recommended)

Flash zip of your choice via recovery

Install new modem MK5 (if you haven't all ready)

Install this Kernel (only if you are having Wifi and Data issues. Will be sorted out, this kernel is a temporary fix) Thanks [MENTION=1414012]scotteb[/MENTION]

Clear cache

Reboot (First boot takes 4-5mins)

Enjoy

Concerning bloat, i think it's a personal decision. XDA member Kaito95 made a nice script which is editable here if you wish to remove bloat yourself.

Thanks to Kaito95 for KNOX removal and debloater script, dsixda for his Android Kitchen and -Mr. X- for Bootloader.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] loserskater:
I feel like there's a lot of confusion about the new bootloaders. So let me try to clear some of it up.

You CAN flash 4.1.2 roms but NOT 4.1.x bootloaders.

If you're unsure that a rom contains bootloaders or a modem here's how to check, download the rom and look in the zip file. What you should look for are any of the following files:

aboot.mbn
sbl1.mbn
sbl2.mbn
sbl3.mbn
rpm.mbn
tz.mbn
NON-HLOS.bin
modem.bin

If the zip contains any of those files DO NOT flash it.

If it contains just these:

boot.img
system
META-INF
(There may be other folders if the rom uses aroma)

it is OK to flash.
