[Moto X Q&A] Nicholas173:
I got a moto x, on sprint, for Christmas. I can't see or send emojis. When I send them, the person on the other end sees black question mark boxes. The same happens to me when I receive them. I use hangouts for messaging but have tried the stock app and some other apps as well. I searched but haven't seen anything about this. Has anyone else had this problem? How did you fix it? Running stock 4.4. Thanks!

Hi i'm new with this whole root thing... i've rooted my phone before and now i updated the phone to android 4.3 and it seems i need to re root again. i tried to load the file philz_touch_5.15.0-n7100.tar.md5 to my phone using odin3.07 and it tells me reset instead of pass. then when i click vol+ pwr and home button at the same time, it gets me into a menu like this. how can i fix this? please HELP! i'm desperate :crying:
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sawdoctor:
Not 100 % sure but I think if you've upgraded to 4.3 and rooted again with cf autoroot you have to then update su from playstore to get root back. I think it downloads the update which you flash through recovery and that's what it's asking you. As i said I'm not 100% Dr ketan's guides are always the best answer

it seems i cannot install the update for su because i can't get into that cwm recovery
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bihslk:
When you want to root you can use CF to root.

When boot into android you need to update SuperSU first.

Then open SuperSU app and update. When app is asking you yo disable KNOX do it. Then it will work

And to root you need this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1933542

I can't install g+ app on my p500 anymore. I tried on CM 10.1.6, 10.2 and 11, but same iusse: "Plaese re-install app" or FC.

Yesterday I came back on CM 10.1.6 (4.2.2) after a week on CM11, so clean installation, full wipe. In system/ there is 45MB and in /data 56 MB

[General Accessories] TheRealGreenVirus:
I am looking for a smartphone case and Zenus has a few good cases. I searched them on Amazon and some other places and the one I want is currently 40€.

I searched on google for their homepage to see what kind of products they have and I found these two links here

http://izenus.com/

http://www.zenuscase.net/

iZenus sells the case I want for only 11$ while zenuscase sells the same vor 37$. I was wondering if iZenus is legit or maybe just a fake website to steal money from people.
[General Accessories] zjhehe:
it looks like both are legit. zenuscase.net is the international site. if you look at the 'about us' page, you can see that it is based in Korea, quite open about their company in terms of providing the manufacturing site and so on.

if you scroll to the 'where to buy' section, you can actually see izenus.com is listed under 'USA'. right now, i speculate that zenuscase.net is simply stating the msrp, but like many retailers, the msrp could be ignored and the retailer could set their own prices which i think is what izenus.com is doing. how is this possible? they could be getting the cases at a much cheaper per unit cost plus they could be bulking on their inventory so a quantity discount would apply.

btw, zenuscase.com is the company website, zenuscase.net is the 'shopping portal' for zenuscast.com. izenus seems to serve in USA while zenuscase.net serves globally and hence the higher prices, why? probably greater costs such as land, rent, inventory storage, and so on.

hope this clarifies it up a little bit
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ace-user:
Hi guys, I wanted to try the Google play edition ROM and I have between doing some research but I'm still a bit confused.. Is there any difference in using the RUU method (which looks much more complicated) and just flashing bigxie's GPE ROM? Which is easier and better? Hope u guys can answer my questions and thanks in advance..
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaHiLzZ:
Dont accept OTA if you install a custom GPE rom, specially if you are S-ON.

On RUU you can install OTA
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ace-user:
Isn't bigxie's Rom is totally stock GPE so it's ok to install OTA?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaHiLzZ:
No it is not. Custom roms are not meant for OTA>. You can update on your peril.
[G Pad 8.3 General] astromark:
I collected a G Pad earlier on. It's the first time I've bought a tablet having never actually seen one in the silicon.

I had a Nexus 7 2013 which I was really happy with, but its mobo failed and went off for a three week repair. It came back in a worse-looking state than it went so I got a refund on it. While it was being fixed I used my old 10" Xoom, and I realised how much nicer a bigger screen is. And then I saw a review of the G Pad...

So I wasn't too unhappy when the Nexus was refunded, and based on the balance of reviews and comments here I took the plunge. So far - and I've only had it an hour - I really like it. The Nexus has a brilliant screen and I thought the lower-PPI count would show on the G, but it seems not to. It seems to go bright enough, but I've not tested it in sunlight outdoors. It's not quite Nexus-retina-searing levels but seems to be not far off.

The extra inch of screen makes a surprising difference in its actual size. It's a nice plus.

No sign yet of a blue line either. The speakers are louder than I'd expected having read things on here.

A couple of things that I need to test out though: battery life and SD card compatibility. As long as I get Nexus-ish battery life I'll be happy, but I need to see if apps like Google Music can store to the SD card (well I know it can, but can it without being rooted?) And BBC iPlayer too, some of those videos come in at one gig+ so I hope they can get off on to the card too. Otherwise 16GB is going to disappear pretty quickly, and that will make the tablet useless for that purpose.

I might try a custom ROM but CM 10.2 on my S3 isn't as finished as they'd have you think: for instance, the phone has for some reason stopped ringing aloud in the past few days. Maybe CM 11 is better, I don't know. But the stock ROM doesn't seem that bad at the moment (but anyone on here likes to tinker, so let's see how long that lasts.)

My bigger concern is community support. I really appreciate what the devs are doing, but for products like the G Pad which don't seem to have sold by the million, long-term support is surely not going to be as promising as it is for the Nexus or Samsung devices.

And actually, I'll end by asking what the hell LG are playing at. So far, this looks like a great tablet but there are NONE to be found in electrical stores here in the UK. That's why I had to buy it sight unseen. If they can't get it into stores, how are they going to shift any in reasonable numbers? Especially when this looks like it should deserve to. Equally, they seem to have failed to hit their stride in terms of getting it into the hands of reviewers.

Anyway, I'm off to have a play. From what I've seen, hopefully I can persuade myself to keep it!
[G Pad 8.3 General] clemson77on:
Welcome to the club. I love mine too. There are ways to move files and apps to your SD card, but if your like me, my Google Music takes up a ton of space and just moving it to the SD card clears up a lot of space on the internal storage. Google Music has a setting to pick your storage location so just choose your SD card. From my understanding, this may be limited to KitKat only though. If you'reconsidering flashing a ROM, I highly suggest Mahdi. You'll lose your LG apps because it's based on AOSP, but you'll pick up a ton of customization in a buttery smooth ROM.
[G Pad 8.3 General] astromark:
Thanks clemson77on.

I do like it but I am probably going to return it. It turns out that BBC iPlayer doesn't support downloads to the G Pad, and I doubt it ever will - they only spend time certifying devices that hit the mainstream. I hate to say it but I don't think the G Pad ever will.

I put Mahdi's ROM on and it is far superior to stock. I certainly mean no disrespect to him or any other devs - who are capable of doing far more than me - but I think the Nexus 7 will have a longer support life from the community. I would be very happy to be proved wrong on this in months to come.

Silly little things play on my mind with this tablet, such as the non-standard soft buttons in the stock ROM. Yes you have a selection, but where's the choice for the Android standard? Device manufacturers drive me crazy sometimes. I would actually like to remain unrooted because there are various apps I use that require that; at least with the N7 I will get no bloat and can keep it unrooted.

I really like the knock-on feature, I don't know why some reviews said it was a gimmick.

But ultimately, 16GB doesn't seem to cut it. I have moved what I can to SD but there's only about 2GB free.

Having said all that... on the other hand, the screen size is a significant plus, and having haptic feedback is really nice in a tablet.

I know that's a random selection of thoughts. I am going to have to make my mind up!
[G Pad 8.3 General] clemson77on:
I believe the development support will be quite good for this device, maybe not on par with the Nexus 7, but very good especially with there being a Google Developer Edition model now.

I know nothing about BBC iPlayer, but it looks like it won't download to the device because of being out of the UK. I did notice that there's an app in the play store called Unblock BBC iPlayer that may help you out - I have no idea.

If you need to be rooted for some of your apps to work, there are apps that can hide your root such as Root Cloak.

Also, you can even move your apps to your SD card if you want to. Link2SD works great for that.

As for soft buttons, I changed mine to look like those on my HTC One and made the longpresses the same so it would be more uniform.

Hope that helps.
[G Pad 8.3 General] astromark:
Thanks very much for the reply. I have in fact decided to keep it. The larger screen won out in the end, and the other positives outweighed the negatives. It only cost £230, which is £10 cheaper than the N7 was, but yes that had twice the storage (but no SD slot). The build and overall shape of this tablet is really nice, possibly the best out there for Android.

The battery life seems a bit so so, but I'm getting 5.5 to 6 hours of screen time. I can live with that - I'm never far from power!

More to the point, I keep these things for a year or so before getting a new one and I can happily live with this for a year (til maybe G Pad 2...)

To return to my points, with iPlayer it's not a location thing. It's whether the BBC dev team can get round to supporting this. Understandably they will prioritise better-selling devices - they'll spend their time where the demand is. I would therefore say that anyone in the UK who has one, install iPlayer and use it. Get this tablet onto their stats. They won't even consider it if they don't see it being used.

Root Cloak, good idea. I've tried OTA Rootkeeper which has certainly unrooted it, I just can't use it to root it again!

Haven't tried Link2SD but will give that a blast later.

My thing with the soft buttons is a more general Android annoyance. Different ways for different manufacturers. And even then they just can't stop themselves. Some of the LG mods were quite good - but they kept on adding more and more. They're not alone but feature creep tends not to lead to a better overall experience.
[G Pad 8.3 General] tdodd:
My G Pad is running the stock LG ROM, is rooted and with the aid of https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.amphoras.hidemyroot&hl=en_GB I am able to install and watch material using iPlayer and the BBC Media Player software.
[G Pad 8.3 General] woody1:
Does iPlayer check for root? What is disabled on iPlayer if it does detect that you have root?
[G Pad 8.3 General] astromark:
I may not have been clear enough. I can also watch iplayer. I cannot download for offline viewing.
[G Pad 8.3 General] GuestD2162:
I had a Nexus 7 (2013) for a few months before I decided to buy a G Pad. I very much agree with you the extra inch makes a big difference. At first if you install a custom rom like CM11 and put it side by side with the G Pad at maximum brightness next to the nexus 7 at max brightness there is definetly a difference in the max brightness with the G Pad falling down on that factor.

Also on the note of it not being found in electrical stores in your country, it is hard to find this device anywhere outside of JB Hifi in Australia unless you buy it online - which I did because even though it can be found at JB Hifi here, it is only available in white and I wanted black.

With the lack of developer community, it was hard coming from the Nexus 7 community which is insanely large however this device seems to be pretty good as it is after you flash a AOSP rom. It does lack a large amount of custom kernel's which the Nexus 7 had the upper hand on - especially with devs like Franco who made the battery life increase by a lot.
[G Pad 8.3 General] tdodd:
OK. Maybe I misunderstood. Now I get it. Yes, the G Pad is not on the download compatibility list. Quite why the Beeb needs such a thing is beyond me.
[G Pad 8.3 General] astromark:
It's a shame isn't it. Presumably it has to do with compatibility testing, user experience checking or more likely rights agreements. Rights rule the roost.

It is clearly technically capable of doing it, it's the iplayer bods having to put the work in to confirm that. And as I say. they'll prioritise by usage. Low usage = low priority = low chance of getting downloads approved.
[G Pad 8.3 General] woody1:
I'm pretty sure that DRM is the issue. Probably, the Beeb thinks if you have root, you might find some way to get around their DRM and distribute the downloaded programs. Not a big deal for me, because I generally stream rather than download.
[G Pad 8.3 General] CuraeL:
How about that old prop editing? Finding a phone or tablet device that has approval from BBC and then just jot that in it's model numbers into the build.prop on the V500? Perhaps the BBC player will then check up against that and allow the downloads? Then just unroot again after? :d I always say this, but it's worth a try, isn't it? Unless it's been done before of course.
[G Pad 8.3 General] astromark:
I've always found iPlayer works regardless of root state. Just tried it on my rooted S3 and it's fine, and it works on my Xoom which was rooted on day 1! I find it handy to have downloads to watch in the gym. Passes the time...

Good idea - haven't thought about it before now. Never tried anything quite that involved. Flashing ROMs and then unbricking is as far as I've gone! I might look into this tomorrow. I assume it's not too tricky. Is it something in the prop that specifies the device?
[G Pad 8.3 General] CuraeL:
Well, I don't remember the exact entries in the build.prop. But aquire root, download rom tool box and edit the build prop. Go to your iPlayer enabled device and look for all entries with something like "model" and any variable set ro device number and such. Then just insert them into the V500. After root, it's strictly typing required. :) And finding the right entries of course. I'm in Denmark and I don't believe I qualify for BBC Player, but I dunno otherwise I'd try it myself. Go with Nexus 5 or Galaxy S4 build.prop or something. It must be around here, somewhere..

Would be a nice fix if that's how the app checks. Some apps does this, yes, by the way.
[G Pad 8.3 General] astromark:
It works - changing

ro.product.model=LG-V500

to:

ro.product.model=Nexus 7

brings it on. Excellent idea, thanks.

Now I need to read up about how to treat a directory on the external SD card like one on the internal-SD as iplayer has no support for external storage.
[G Pad 8.3 General] CuraeL:
That's good news. :)

I believe theres apps for fixing external saving instead. There's some threads on it given the trouble with SD cards compatability and stuff. Go read up on those. App2SD and such I think, link2SD or something. Kinda like linking a harddrive path over to another harddrive, still keeping the app believing that it saves to in this case the internal storage, when it's really not. I'm not too sure, cause I've had no need or issues with this myself. But good luck and awesome that we fixed one of your troubles. :)

Hi, there !

Can somebody tell me how to remove the one which i marked with red box (i don't know what it's called & i already put the screenshot on attachment) ? :confused:

I already decompiled SystemUI.apk using apktools, but i have no idea which one that i have to edit in order to remove the one that i explained above because there are so many folders and files inside SystemUI.apk :( :silly:

Thank you for your kindness & your attention :)
[Sony Xperia L] uremytoy:
its in home.apk not systemui.apk and the file u should remove is home_stage_bg, at last i think its this one :) before making changes, make sure u have SECOND launcher installed and set as default, otherwise u will get fc or u can get bootloop.

ps no need to decompile; i think that jsut removing that png should be fine, ofc make backup of the system before doing that
[Sony Xperia L] rizky_satch:
I did remove home_stage_bg, but nothing changed. It's still there :(

what did i miss ? :confused:

by the way, i also found some files in home.apk that look like home_stage_bg, called home_apptray_dropzone, should i remove it too ?

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lither:
I'm interested in purchasing the Nexus 10 32GB tablet for £389 on Google Play Store but have few questions I want to ask before buying as I never owned a tablet before,

1. I heard the Nexus 10 has a locked bootloader, is it easy to unlock it to root and install custom ROM?

2. Is it easy to root the tablet?

3. I want to stay as stock as possible, is there any custom ROM out there that is based on the original 4.4.2 firmware with few performance tweaks and deodexed apps?

4. Does this tablet have alot of wakelocks which stops it from deep sleep which will drain the battery?

5. Any problems with this tablet I should know?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_Jay_jay:
I'm very surprised none has answer this... Here's my answer to the best of my knowledge:

1.- yes it comes with a lock bootloader , it's unlocks super easy I used Wug's root tool:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2015467

2.- Wug's root toolkit does it for you too!

3.- Sure Here's one example of a Odex or deodex Rom:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2529492

4.- Wakelocks not more than the next tablet or cellphone all have a solution if any exist.. so many tutorials all over XDA how to handle wakelock.

5.- ONLY real problem I see with these tablet is the lack of a SD card slot.. other than that I love the screen, it handles very well just about any game.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lither:
I've wakelocks on my Galaxy S4 which I use Greenify to hibernate the apps but it uses XPosed which I've a game which doesn't run if it detects XPosed is installed due to cheating or something like that, but probably will use Titanium Backup to freeze Google Play Store and Service if not needed at that time

I agree but I'll be getting the 32GB version so I hope there's plenty of space for me since the 16GB is out of stock

Also what advantages or features is there between CM (Manta) and stock 4.4.2?
