[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beelbeel:
Is there any way to use voice commands on the G2 without interacting with the phone screen? Ideally I would be able to hold down a button to trigger it, even if it means I have to root. I currently use Siri by holding down my iphones button or by holding down a button on my kenwood car stereo, and it is a big part of how I play music in the car.

I'm about to switch from an iphone (had for 2 years, had mytouch 4g and 3g before that) and I am considering the LG g2 and the moto x. One thing that is currently making me lean towards the moto x is the fact that it takes voice commands so well. I was hoping there would be some way to use voice commands on the G2 without having to interact with the phone too much.

One way...add the voice search to lock screen short cut. But it will require the screen to be on.

Example: Knock-knock to turn on screen, swipe voice search to open, it will automatically start listening for commands

That is probably the easiest way on the G2 since the volume buttons are factory set to open camera and note pad.

If it's a deal breaker, then I'd suggest the moto X since it has active listening.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Howie Dub:
There is an app in the Play Store called Open Mic+ and it allows you to trigger Google Now with the screen off. The only thing is that it's a huge battery hog because it doesn't have access to the Hexagon DSP core of our Snapdragon 800 SoCs. Also, I think the Google Experience Launcher gives you the ability to launch Google Now from the homescreen, but I heard they might have disabled that feature on non-Nexus devices. The G2 is an incredible phone, but if having touchless control is important to you, then the Moto X is your phone. My buddy has it and loves it. I'm on T-Mobile, and in all honesty, I probably would have gotten the Moto X if it had WiFi Calling.

I've tried a lot of stuff and nothing is working. I want just the normal ICS stock no jelly bean or anything like that, but i haven't been able to find that anywhere. Also viperMod doesn't work for me, when I try running it vM starts up a adb server thing and I don't know how to make that work.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wtd03:
Yea I need this as well. Someone has to know something. Vipermod is outdated
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] das chaos:
If you flash stock ROM, there will be no root anymore. But it should be difficult to get ICS stock ROM; why should one want to go back to an outdated OS?

edit:

You can download ICS ROM from ASUS support site.
[General Questions and Answers] xavier1693:
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (SPH-I605) that does not have phone service at the moment. I currently have it back to the stock ROM and I'm having an issue that is keeping me from using the internal memory on it. External SD card working fine and I can install apps on it but I cant write to the internal memory. I'll try and give you as much information as I can on it.

Model SCH-I605

Android Version 4.1.2

Baseband Version "unknown"

Kernel Version 3.0.31-1098177 se.infra@SEP-126 #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Mar 29 10:58:51 KST 2013

Build Number JZO54K.I605VRAMMC3

This was previously activated and rooted with Jedi X 17 on it. I tried to CM11 on it so I could get my Galaxy Gear working with it and ended up getting it all messed up. Now I have flashed the KIES_HOME_I605VRAMC3_I605VZWAMC3_1098177_REV04_user_low_ship.tar.md5 back to it and root checker says there is no root access.

Now I cant get ANY version of Odin to write ANY custom recovery to it and cant use the internal memory. My guess is that I cant write the CWM or TWRP to it because of this. My question is how do I get access to the internal memory back so I can install KitKat to it and start using my Galaxy gear with it.

Hi folks, seeing as I have just obtained a wizard (o2 XDA mini), I thought I'd have a snoop around and join a forum or two.

The thread question is this:

I have a laptop, it has no built in connectivity.

I have the wizard, it has wi-fi and bluetooth.

Would it be possible to connect my laptop via bluetooth to the wizard which would then allow me to access wireless internet?

I have searched on here and found the same sort of question but with no replies.

I don't know what software, if any, is available to do this but surely it must be possible. I know I could browse with the wizard but if I could get the wi-fi data out via bluetooth, it would be great.

Thanks peeps, great forum. I have learnt quite alot already and I've only had the pda a couple of days.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Jerry-S:
Anybody???
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] rxr:
I don't know about bluetooth connectivity between the wizard and the the laptop, for one you will need to get a Bluetooth adapter/dongle for your laptop to connect to the wizard.

However you can use the wizard linked via usb to laptop and use the Edge/GPRS to surf on the laptop. That's called tethering. And i'm sure there's a How to FAQ somewhere on here or over at HowardForums.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Jerry-S:
Yeah, tethering is one solution. I am a coach driver and as such have long boring days of doing asically nothing. I have upgraded from a Nokia 7610 which I used to connect to my laptop via a BT dingle and use the GPRS modem that way.

The main point is that GPRS is expensive and if I can find a Wi-Fi AP, could I connect to the net through that in the same way that I would use the GPRS connection.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JoninLA:
Not sure where you're going Jerry. Wouldn't it be simpler if Wi Fi is available to get a USB or PCMCIA WiFi card for the laptop?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Jerry-S:
I suppose it would. It was just a thought as in 'If I can do it, why spend more money?' :lol:

Then again, PCMCIA Wi-Fi cards a cheap enough I suppose.

I have a GS4 and I would like to hear the ringtone play over the bt headset. If it can play notification sounds (sms, email, mms, ect) then why the heck wont it play the ringtones instead I get " beep beep, incoming call" or something of the sort.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cactus_Punch:
Hello everyone, I'm having a weird problem which has been happening for quite a while now, basically stock ROM using speed-test app 20-30Mb/s download speed AWESOME

Now when using custom ROMS (So far Cyanogenmod and Viperone) my download speed is limited to 2Mb/s youtube stutters, pages load slow etc pretty much a pain since its a smart phone that uses a lot of internet, now it gets weirder, no matter what my download is locked to my upload speed always stays a nice healthy 10Mb/s, even weirder still is if I reboot the phone for the first 3-4 minutes of being back on download speed is back to normal (20-30Mb/s)

Even weirder still is when using Android Revolution HD (ARHD) my WiFi still works perfectly, so what ever ARHD and the stock from have in common my WiFi must agree with it! As far as troubleshooting I've done clean installs, I've even made my router run only in 2.4GHz

Someone please help I don't wanna be stuck on one custom ROM when there is so many to try :(

Sorry to dig up this old thread, but I am experiencing similar issues, albeit with a different device (OnePlus 3).

Only the stock Oxygen Rom gives good Wifi tethering performance, but trying Cyanogenmod, Bliss, etc. all give the same 1-2Mbps speeds like you described.

Did you ever figure out the issue?

Are (were) you on T-Mobile US by chance?

TIA.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] nirurin:
OK, I just wanted to know if this was just me...

When drawing, especially when doing a long quick stroke with the pen, i will sometime get a bit of a .... squeak. Like the pen is scratching or rubbing against the screen. It doesnt happen very often, just on occasion..

I dont seem to be causing any scratches though... no damage seems to be done.

So I can only assume its the material of the SPen?

I never had this happen with my old note10.1, using the white tips that came with the pen. This pen seems to only come with th eblack tips though, with no alternative choices.

Unfortunately I had to sell my old note10.1, so I dont have the pen available to test on this screen.

Anyone else having this issue? OR maybe I should buy an alternate pen?

Any advice would be good thanks!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Uschiekid:
Mine is white but it comes with 2 kinds of tips...look closer at the extras...should be plastic ones and rubber ones...mine came with a rubber tip on and 3 extra rubber and 2 plastic tips.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] nirurin:
my original note came with those... my 2014 one just came with several replacement black tips, no white ones...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Uschiekid:
What I meant was I have a white note...not black...so nothing is black...pen and tips are all white...to match the device itself. But if you have black tips, im assuming your note and pen are black. What I was trying to say was that amongst those black tips, there might be two types that arent as visibly different as the white tips are,...so I was advising you to look more closely or try to feel for a difference
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] nirurin:
Oh i see... I did try swapping tips at one point, but only because I assumed they were all the same!

On the original note, it came with 4 white rubbery tips and 4 black plastic tips... I didnt think tha there might be a difference in these tips cos they were all the same colour... I will take a closer look
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Uschiekid:
Oh I didnt realise the original note had such obviously different tips....

yeah, the white note has rubber ones that are very opaquely white and plastic ones that are slightly translucent but still white.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] nirurin:
The Grey note comes with 6 completely indistinguishable dark-grey tips lol

But, if you push on the ends with a fingernail, you can tell that 3 of them are slightly rubbery, and 3 are solid plastic.

Though I preferred the rubbery ones on the original note, I am going to try a plastic one now. ITs a lot smoother on the screen, and you can definatly notice the lack of resistance, but it seems to be pretty good. And no squeaks haha.

I had heard rumours on the old note that the plastic tips could scratch the screen, but I'm pretty sure they were false...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Reiman76:
This is my current set-up for drawing and painting on my note...

I use rubber tips (i'm using the aftermarket SPen with the eraser on the other end, not the SPen that came with the tablet) with a matte screen protector over my screen. The screen protector isn't for preventing scratches (although it helps) but to create the proper amount of friction i feel comfortable with. I do like the plastic tips better but from my experience they tend to get sharp edges from normal wear and tear.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Geordie Affy:
I can't see how plastic could scratch the screen :/ however I do remember reading where people got something stuck on the tip of their s-pen and whilst using it they ended up scratching the screen. Main reason why I had to place a clear screen protector on mine just incase it happens and tbh the Anker screen protector is as though there's nothing there so it helps.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] jinda628:
Sorry for bumping this old thread but I dont want to create a new one.

My Note 2014 came in without extra tips. And the one I have is plastic and got no traction. I'm wondering where I can buy a rubber tip and replacement tool.

Tnx.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] jonling:
Screen protector

It might not be the tip at all. It could be the screen protector or lack of one.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] jherring002:
The note 2014 extra tips are buried in the box it Came in. If you Kept the box, go and look. They are in a tiny zip lock bag.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] jinda628:
Tried it without protector, with a glossy and now a matte one and it got really minimal traction. A friend of mine got an spen with rubber tip and it feels better writing and drawing. At least for me.

Lol! I got to check the box thoroughly. I just took the tablet and charger and forgot about the box. I'll check it again. Thanks!

Is it just me or does anybody else experience random reboots with 4.4 roms? I love the 4.4 rom's that are available right now, but the reboots are starting to get annoying (yes, I do full wipes). It particularly happens during phone calls. I know every phone is different, but damn, it's every ROM!

Hi.

You know how on the mda when you hold the d-pad down on the contacts, after a few seconds a letter comes up? It seems like its there to help you skip to the letter that it lands on, but on my phone it doesn't do that. I stay at the same contact that it stopped on before projecting the letter. All the contacts in my phone are sim contacts, do you think this is the problem, like does it only work for the contacts saved to the phone?

And my second question is, after you make a call that is not on the contacts list, is there anyway to save it to the (sim) contacts without having to copy and paste all over again? My old phone whenever I dialed a number or recieved a call that wasn't on my list, one of the soft keys would say "store" or I could press the menu soft key to "store" into my contacts. Unless I have overlooked it, I can't seem to do that with the mda.

Thanx
