[Galaxy Note 3 General] Lonzo_SGS2_506:
I wouldn't be so excited about this update.. A friend of mine who has the nexus 5 regrets of it .. The update was only an unthinkable restriction to certain android features.. According to him... My note is flying now on 4.3 and it can do more things than any other device in the market.. So.. Unless the move to KitKat is smooth I would stay in 4.3 for a while... Or I could be wrong.. Will see.. Hehe.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] aydc:
I used to use 4.4.2 on my HTC One, before buying Note 3. KitKat 4.4.2 is nothing special unless you switch from Dalvik to Art, which Samsung will definitely not allow (neither did HTC, I was using the Google Edition ROM).

Other than Art, improvements in 4.4 are under the hood or related to devices with 512mb RAM or less. So don't expect much improvement to Note 3.

However, I'm hoping that Samsung will use the switch to 4.4 as an opportunity to iron out the bugs that cause battery drain. That'll certainly make the ROM upgrade worthwhile.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] klau1:
Not worth it if it BREAKS half the functions on APPs.

Every Update, They keep decreasing the number of functions APPs are able to use in Android.

So apps get more and more dumbed down until they are no different than Apple iOS Apps.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] pete4k:
I'm sure all it will do is lock the system some more, like already MJ7 does, compared to MI7 which I have, also probably will get rid of permission settings which I use now and yeah, improving performance on 512MB phones now, when most makers going toward higher memory options, ain't that great? My phone runs good, battery is great, so I think I'll stick to "Don't fix it if it ain't broken" motto for my own good. I updated my old GS3 to 4.3 recently. The only difference I can see is that useless, stupid Knox now loaded on my phone, lesson learned, thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] klau1:
Yea man, feel for ya, gotta be super cautious of the bootloader changing after MJ1.

That's why it's best to not use OTA and read like a thousand developer posts before updating.

But either way, regarding 4.4, eventually you'll have to update once Apps start abandoning support for 4.3 just as they have for ICS.

ICS has lost a large fraction of apps that previously work for it thanks to Dev's abandoning support for older OSes.

This is becoming a serious problem for "oldER" devices moving forward.

Because of this, Android devices really shouldn't have much resale value.

Not only does a device not keep up with NEW features, but it's ALSO LOSING OLD FEATURES.

LOL Android, What a Joke. :laugh:

Tho to be fair, I understand this to be the cost of breakneck developing speed platforms compared to matured platforms like Windows.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] pete4k:
Well, the way I look at it, in about 4-6 months Knox and all those new locks will be mere inconvenience and then if I need to upgrade to get some new programs to run, I will. But I don't share "can't wait to upgrade" attitude of others. I upgraded from Win 7 to Win 8 pretty much on release day, what a stupid move that was and what a pain to downgrade back to Win 7, never mind the money spend.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] klau1:
The point is, if you upgrade to get some programs to run, some other ones will stop working.

Look at Tasker, seems like the number of accessible Google APIs for Apps are decreasing every version.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] radicalisto:
It'll be interesting to see if custom ROMs and kernels will allow ART to be enabled... however Wanam fails with ART, so people might not bother with it too much.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dastinger:
Hey guys,

I haven't received my N5 yet and I'm looking to have a screen protector by the time it gets here. I was looking at Spigen and found at their website that they only have the Ultra Crystal. Well, I went on Amazon UK and found out that they were selling a 3-pack Spigen Crystal screen protector for £5.98 and then a Ultra Crystal that comes with front and rear protection for £9.99.

Now, I wouldn't mind spending a bit more for something that's, in fact, better but I can't seem to understand what the differences are between these two products. I'm really only looking for screen protection.

TLDR: Differences between Spigen Ultra Crystal screen protector and Crystal screen protector.

Hi Folks,

My Service Provider here in Brazil requires that I connect to a different Access Point to be able to watch streaming TV.

I'm looking for either for a player that can call a specific connection when watching videos, or help in cofiguring dialing rules so that when I access http://80.x.x.x/etc.rm (don't remember URL now) it will dial the correct AP instead of traditional Internet GPRS connection.

MMS is also a different AP, and Outlook MMS client can call up the AP when checking for MMS messages. So I was hoping for a video player that could deal with this as well.

Thanks,

A.

Hi everyone just a quick question I wanted to know if anyone is having issues with mms that has there s4 flashed.I am able to receive but not send.When trying to send pic using stock messaging it just spins in a circle.Now it use to work following a guide from [MENTION=1130160]AlpineMan[/MENTION] a great contributor.His steps are below in a Screenshot. Iv'e also had my friend test who has a note 2 using same method and it does the same thing.I am stock rooted mk2.(4.3).Iv'e also tried using sms apps that has there own custom apn settings such as handcent and hangouts.When matching up settings same things happen unable to send.Does anyone know if any ports changed or anything changed for boost mobile mms proxy? Your help would be greatly appreciated
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] AlpineMan:
Were you on wifi when you tried sending? Try turning it off...ie send your MMS on 3G. I remember someone saying something changed on Boost and they couldn't send while on wifi anymore, but still works on 3G.

If it still doesn't work, try my method 2 using "8sms" messaging app. I put all the config details in the thread you took a screen shot of.

Twitter Token Patcher v0.3

No more limits for the Twitter clients

Introduction

With this Xposed mod, the twitter clients will no longer suffer from the 100k limit of authorized users, so that this:

View attachment 2508615

Becomes this:

View attachment 2508616

Details

To use this Xposed mod, you need to create your own twitter tokens on the Twitter Dev Apps section (Update: fill also the callback url with any url, just don't leave it empty), and get your own Consumer Key and Secret, then insert them into the Xposed mod settings, and the Twitter client will work again.

View attachment 2508618View attachment 2508617

I did this for mainly for Carbon, after reading that the developer is not going to make it accept custom keys, and I had some free time, so I did it. I mainly use Falcon Pro, but wanted to give Carbon v2.0 a try.

Supported Twitter clients:

Carbon (by dots and lines)

Janetter (Jane, Inc.)

Others will come soon, hopefully with YOUR support.

Unsupported Twitter Clients (that supports custom Tokens internally):

Falcon Pro (Follow this guide)

Tweedle (select Advanced login)

Download

I attached the apk of the Xposed mod.

You can also find this on the Xposed Repo

Installation

To make it run, you need to:

1- Install the attached APK

2- Enable the Xposed module in Xposed Framework

3- Insert your own Consumer key and secret in the settings of this xposed module

4- Enable the desired Twitter clients

5- Reboot your device.

Source code

You can find the source code for this mod on GitHub, feel free to add support for more clients, and I will include it in later versions.

Change log

v0.1 (2014-01-11)

- First release, supports only Carbon

v0.2 (2014-01-15)

- Gingerbread compatibility (to test)

- New APK signing certificate, to release MOD to xposed repo (to update from v0.1, you have to uninstall/reinstall).

v0.3 (2014-01-16)

- Added support for Janetter
[Xposed Framework Modules] mcbyte_it:
Requesting support for new clients is welcome, preferably free ones (I don't want to buy every single twitter app), and the app should not be offering native support for custom tokens, such as Falcon Pro or Tweedle (and others), because users who can install and use Xposed framework, can also go into the settings of the app to add the custom tokens.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mysterious-Rom:
Awesome work ! Thanks joenrv will be happy with Falcon !
[Xposed Framework Modules] sugarkane87:
is this suppport with gingerbread?
[Xposed Framework Modules] mcbyte_it:
There is a port of Xposed Framework for GB, but I don't have a GB device at the moment, so I can't test, give it a try and let me know :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] sugarkane87:
sadly, it's not working (parse error). Becuz when i'm look the source code, min sdk version is 14. :(
[Xposed Framework Modules] mcbyte_it:
I made a new version with minsdk set to 9 (Gingerbread 2.3), try and let me know if it works.
[Xposed Framework Modules] sugarkane87:
Thanks man, for backporting to gingerbread, and it's worked! Appreciated so much :) The thing is.. can you add tweedle to twitter client provider? becuz tweedle has limitation too.. and as we know it, carbon and falcon is for android 4.0 and up, right?

Edit: 3 client provider ( carbon, falcon, placeholder) only carbon is able to check where the others two isn't. Before unchecked carbon, I can't use tweedle. But when carbon is checked now tweedle is worked.

Sent from my XT530
[Xposed Framework Modules] mcbyte_it:
Tweedle allows easy change of the Twitter token, just select Advanced Login and insert the personal tokens. My scope is for apps that doesn't provide this solutions.

The app settings screen is a demo, so that other devs can take the sources and add more clients, that's why there is a placeholder. Falcon is giving me some errors, so it is not supported/selectable yet.

what other clients are suffering from the tokens issue?
[Xposed Framework Modules] sugarkane87:
ah.. I see, and I didn't update the tweedle yesterday, so latest version has 2 option login, sorry for my bad

maybe you can check janetter, it has token limitation policy.
[Xposed Framework Modules] mcbyte_it:
Just released v0.3, which adds support for Janetter, give it a try and let me know if it works with Gingerbread.

I also published this mod to Xposed Repo.
[Xposed Framework Modules] sugarkane87:
Janetter is working, good job man :)

Sent from my XT530
[Xposed Framework Modules] adlx.xda:
To save you some time, Falcon Pro already has native support for entering one's key/secret (http://www.lifehacker.com.au/2013/07/bypass-falcon-pros-twitter-token-limit-with-this-cheat-code/).

;)

PS: I had the idea of making an app to do that just this week, you beat me to it lol.
[Xposed Framework Modules] mcbyte_it:
if you check the first post, I wrote that I am not going to support apps that give the ability to use personal tokens (at least at this moment), later maybe.

anyway, I am looking for more twitter clients that suffer the token limit, I installed around 8 different free clients, other than Janetter and Carbon, with the rest I was able to login without token change...
[Xposed Framework Modules] adlx.xda:
I know, I read the OP, and the full thread. I wasn't asking you to add support for anything.
[Xposed Framework Modules] nolimit06:
I've followed your instructions but I can't get this to work with the latest version of carbon in the play store. I have my key and secret but evey time I reboot then launch Carbon it says it can't connect to twitter... Any ideas?
[Xposed Framework Modules] mcbyte_it:
Are you sure everything is enabled successfully? and the consumer key and secret are inserted in the xposed module correctly (case is IMPORTANT)?

How did you create the Twitter App on their dev site? all permissions are ok? did you add an application URL?

My build is still working with no issues.
[Xposed Framework Modules] nolimit06:
Checked and rechecked. Here are some screens with the important stuff edited.

EDIT: And now I fell like a dumbass... It works. Last night it kept saying it was unable to connect to Twitter. But instead of it asking me to authorize my app name (Tw1tterTwatter) it said "Carbon" so in wondering if new tokens were made available by chance?
[Xposed Framework Modules] steve51184:
Any tweetcaster support? :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] mcbyte_it:
Is it suffering from the twitter token limit? It is one of the clients with the most users, 5 to 10 millions.
[Xposed Framework Modules] xybur:
This is happening to me. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. My keys are placed in there, ive changed permissions to read, write and direct messages.

Im trying to regen the keys now and see if it makes a difference.

edit: No dice, perhaps carbon has updated the app in such a way to not allow this trick to work?

edit: I tried janetter just for kicks and giggles to see if it works and its not working either. "failed to request twitter. make sure that your device's built in clock is updated and functioning properly"

editedit:

Lol, I got it finally. you have to fill in ALL the fields, including the callback URL, even though it's not required on the website.
[Xposed Framework Modules] SSD4130:
What did you use for the callback URL?
[Xposed Framework Modules] mcbyte_it:
you can put anything as callback url.
[Xposed Framework Modules] SSD4130:
Hmm. I filled out the entire form on the twitter dev website twice, and when I used my consumer key and secret they didn't work. Not sure what I'm doing wrong :/
[Xposed Framework Modules] xybur:
I just put my own personal website.
[Xposed Framework Modules] AstroZombie1:
Finally I can use carbon again thanks man. :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] TwoPointZero:
Hello,

Is it still working fine? I flashed a new ROM (4.4) and the client no longer works in Carbon 2.

Was working ok last week.

The error messagebox when I click add account (before even being prompted for credentials) says

Couldn't contact Twitter!

[Cancel] [Try Again]

My checklist:

1- AFwall+, Xprivacy => no rejection logged

2- Xposed Log => Hook installed

3- Both carbon and my own app are approved in Twitter settings. I issued a new set of keys to no avail.

4- Module off + reboot => client says this app has reached token limit

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eviatal:
Hello!

I have just got a new LG G2! :)

I want to root it, but I'm a little bit confused atm:

1) Rooting the device using IORoot does not change the kernel or recovery, does it? (I'll be rooted runnig stock and won't be able to flash stuff)

2) If I want to create a nandroid backup, I have to flash first CWM/TWRP. So how can I make a nandroid backup for my current unrooted and runnig stock phone?

3) Can I backup my EFS files without a custum recovery (with root only)?

4) Is that correct that after each rom I flash, the phone needs to be rooted again?

Thanks!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdevaughn:
1. Yes

2. You use the cwm. Or twrp to make the backup.

3. Not sure, have always been rooted sui never looked for a way to do that.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nerdnussbutter:
Hello everyone,

I've got some problems with Multirom v21, especially when I want to install a Custom Rom to my USB stick:

The mounting of my 8GB USB stick (I tried Fat32 and NTFS) works fine, but when I want to install a Rom on it (eg Purity Rom) it takes a lot of time (~ 10 minutes) to set up /data.img and /cache.img (both have the standard size). After that, the message "E:Mount: Unable to find partition for path /data/" shows up, but as mentioned in an other forum, this shoudn't be a big deal. The setup continues with the installation of the Rom, but this takes a lot of time (~ 15 minutes) too. After rebooting, the rom I installed is listed as a bootable rom - so far, so good.

But when I actually want to boot this rom, it takes about 20 minutes to boot. I thought this might be because of the slow USB connection, but after the boot animation disappeared, only the navigation bar and the notification bar were displayed, neither the standard background nor the "unlock your simcard"-thing appeared. It also doesn't show any reaction when I press the navigation buttons or pull down the notification bar. Only the "turn off your phone"-dialog appears when I press my on/off-button and I am actually able to reboot my phone.

What could be the reason for this ? I tested my USB connection speed on my laptop and the average speed was 11,7 Mb/sec (read) and 4,2 Mb/sec (write). Is that fast enough ? Are there other things I could check/do to solve this problem ?

Thanks for your support!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Q 5:
Hello,

I have a sprint galaxy S3 and right now it's showing unkown IMEI but all the other ones are fine like Baseband, MEID, PRL..

How can I fix it? also is it normal for the phone MEID to be 14 digits? my other GS3 have 15.

I do have service and the phone seems to be working just fine except for the 4G LTE. Its not connecting and I am thinking its the IMEI the problem.

I know we have 4G LTE as my other GS3 is getting a strong signal.

The phone with the unkown IMEI have the stock rooted android 4.3. If I load a different modem like the LJ3 or LJ7 than everything else will show unkown and phone will lose service.

I bought the phone from ebay with the MEID being all zeros but I was able to write it back using DFS tool and was able to activate it after that.. I am on the Ting service.. its a virtual mobile operator using the sprint service.

I hope I provided all the info and I will attach a screen shot as well

Thank you.
