Just curious as to how long account restrictions are in place here at XDA? I've been a member of many forums over the years (retired moderator at Overclock.net) and frankly puzzled as I have never seen these kind of restrictions on another site.

Not allowed to post external links (so no photobucket, no links to accessories).

Can only post every 5 minutes? Again a real head scratcher.

Have to type in an authentication code every time I post?

Just wondering if XDA is actively discouraging new members from joining.

I have to say great content on the site but very frustrating to try and participate.

In this thread I want to see and to know more for those who own moto x tmobile kitkat 4.4 without rooting the phone, especially from the battery perspective. How's your moto x handle all the apps that you've download ? do you feel your moto x after kitkat 4.4 is just getting worse day after day and do you feel losing battery performance that makes you think that you're having hardware issue with your moto x ? please feel free to share and any solution and tips that I believe would be useful for everyone here that's not rooting their moto x to improve their battery life.

[HTC Droid DNA] Stix-N-Stonz:
Hey guys, you know how on 4.1 Stocks music player, you could place shortcuts to apps themselves inside the media player? I used to place my Youtube, NFL Mobile, and any other media apps right inside the 4.1 media players app list. That way I could hide the apps from the drawer and save space. Anybody know of a good music app that has that feature? I've tried Power Player, don't like it. I'm giving Winamp a go as we speak, but if I could even get that old media player back, I'd be good. Also, does KitKAt just not have a stock player itself, or is it solely reliant on Google Play Music? I didn't know if it was just never incorporated into new roms and I was missing something, or if after 4.1, they just relied on Google Music. Thanks!

Agreed. I had to roll back to a previous backup of /SYSTEM. I'd like to know what this mod is intended to do, and why it doesn't actually work.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] bodooo:
It enables App ops so you'd be able to use an app from the playstore to be able to access it, the only way I think to actually get it under the security settings is to follow his guide. If you are using a deodexed (odex too but you have to odex the apk) Rom however you can simply copy the settings apk and replace it with the original one, change permissions, reboot, and boom there you go, that's one way.

I've not noticed a yellow tinge to mine, im pretty impressed especially at currys current 130 quite price!

Was going to get a micro hdmi adapter at some point, I'd like the slide cover, but that seems non existent in the uk
[General Topics] Ouzo:
I think maybe it's because I'm used to to Super LCD screens. If you put one beside the Note and look at the gmail and Play icons they look a little creamy and yellow. Next to a 2013 Nexus 7 it looks awful, but now Currys have dropped the price to £99, who cares?

You need an Micro HDMI plug not a Mini HDMI plug as I found out last week. I bought mine from an Amazon reseller for about £2. Asda sell them in store for £6-9 dependent upon brand from memory.

Make sure your headphone jack works properly, mine had an intermittent fault.

If you bought your Note in the last seven days you may be able to get Currys to refund the difference, especially if you ordered online.
[General Topics] fards:
aye, I've heard, but not really sure its worth the effort of dealing with the robots at CS, as I did a click&collect
[General Topics] Ouzo:
I felt the same way but I found a non 0844 contact number and gave it a shot. Allegedly the difference has been refunded onto my card, though I haven't checked yet. The number is 01594 332592 and it answers as Currys Know How. I should add that I paid online and had the Note delivered to store rather than Click and Collect (or whatever it is where you reserve then pay in store).
[General Topics] kHiTe:
I have picked a UK Tegra Note up for 99 quid. Really is very quick and have found that enabling 4xMSAA in developer options doesn't degrade performance in gaming.

I picked up a 30 quid miracast box from Curry's. Miracast works okay, image quality is good, but sound can fall out of sync. However with only one WiFi channel you cannot use streaming services. Although you could always set up another android device as a Bluetooth tether connected to WiFi.

Anyone got an Apps to SD solution?
[General Topics] Ouzo:
Doh! I didn't realise Currys sold them - I just ordered one online from Amazon. Good point about the lack streaming services.

I only tried 4xMSAA in Modern Combat 3 and I couldn't see much difference in quality. Perhaps I'll try again. I'd love to be able to get rid of the colour banding in certain scenarios (colour crush) as it's very unattractive. Into the Dead is a good example.

A few more information for others:

Google in 4.4.2 removed entry in Settings app that enabled App Ops applications from Play to actually display App Ops function.

This mod revert back commit that Google did in order to prevent us from using it.

You still need App Ops starting app from Google Play (will not promote any here) that is Android 4.4 compatible!

Don't look for 4.4.2 compatible app on Google Play, as such do not exist. If it would exist, then we wouldn't need this mod. right? ;)

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] sordna:
Thanks. So for stock ROMs that like to update via OTA, better use App Ops X instead of this modified settings apk, right?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] fernandezhjr:
Most likely this zip will block OTA. I'm not sure about the app linked, but since it now requires root and would probably have to do some modding to function, it wouldn't surprise me if it also blocks OTA. If uninstalling reverts changes, then you would be ok.

This is independent of the WiFi or 3G connection. I also removed Greenefy app with no improvement and I'm not using any task killer. I tried all the nightlies available on CM updater. After the upgrade I haven't changed any options.
