[HTC Sensation] Odnoglazy:
I have charging issues and i don't know whether they are of some deep software or hardware origin. When I charge the phone current gradually decreases from something like 750 milliamps to 10-30. This behavior doesn't depend on the charger I use or whether I use 100% stock ROM of Revolution HD. Discharging seems to be normal.

Please help.

Hello all. How are ya's today. I was wondering what I can do with my tablet. I bought it in haste really cause it was cheap. It is running android 4.0.4 The tablet itself is a HS-9DTB4 8gb hipstreet flare. It came rooted already so that is already done. What can I do with it. Can I upgrade the android or replace it with something. I would like to use it for business purposes but can't find the right apps for it I want. Any suggestions. ??
[General Questions and Answers] 1bigguy:
No one has ideas ??
[General Questions and Answers] Trozzul:
there could be lots of things you can do with a rooted device, problem is you need a custom recovery, (for restoration and backup purposes) generic tablets like your most of the time dont get one. you can go onto the play store and just type in root and there will be a huge number of apps you can use, read the desc to make sure you meet the requirements, lots of people screw up on that.
[General Questions and Answers] 1bigguy:
Where would I get a custom recovery...from the people that make the device or is there a place on the play store to get it for this device. "Read the Desc"...what is that. ?? As long as I don't brick the tablet I don't really care what I do to it. I called hipstreet and they say there are no more updates for this tablet at all so either I do something or I get to use what I have forever, lol. I don't wanna do that.
[General Questions and Answers] hunterk11:
Custom recovery is cwm, clockworkmod, google and see if a version exists for your device. Rooting gives superuser permission which is extremely powerful, it removes all safeguards that prevent a user from destroying their system, downloading the wrong app or pushing a wrong option can instantly brick a device, which is why custom Recovery's exist, they back up the entire system not just /data but also /system and others. If you do not know what any of this means then i would suggest not messing with root access.

And read the desc means read the description, it is the mass of words under an app in the play store or app thread that outline use, require my a, what not to do and other good stuff

Please quote me in replies.

[General Questions and Answers] Trozzul:
A Custom Recovery is not CWM, CWM is one of the few Custom recovery we have, but pretty much what he said, the only way you would get a recovery is for someone to make one witch i doubt anyone has for your specific tablet.
[General Questions and Answers] hunterk11:
Cwm or twrp are the main ones, if someone says custom recovery most will say cwm, i was just trying to keep it relatively simple.

Please quote me in replies.

[General Questions and Answers] 1bigguy:
So basically there is nothing I can do with it unless someone has made an image specifically for this device, which I to doubt anyone will do. It's not a high end tablet so there is no reason for anyone to in the first place. Is there anyway to update the existing android o/s on it or no. ??

EDIT:

I actually just found this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2172412
[General Questions and Answers] Trozzul:
well from the thread it looks like it might be your device, you should ask the person if its for your model only, i searched and it seems like there is a few different ones. otherwise it looks like this is what you need if its for your tablet.
[General Questions and Answers] 1bigguy:
Now that's just for recovery right. ?? How do I find out what else I can load onto my tablet. ??
[General Questions and Answers] Trozzul:
so if you get this recovery what your going to do is make a backup so you can always restore to when you do something wrong (for safe purposes) then apps that need root will let you use them, as for the update i doubt someone made a rom aswell, if theres no recovery theres no way people have made a rom for the tablet.
[General Questions and Answers] 1bigguy:
Ok, So I guess I will go on a bit of a search then to see what I can find. So not just ANY rom will do. It has to be made for this specific tablet. Like I couldn't say try and load windows on it or something silly like that. ??
[General Questions and Answers] ljwobker:
Correct. Regardless of anything else you can only run code that's compiled for that.machine ... and I assume you Microsoft doesn't compile Windows for that thing.

You may want to look for a different tablet that's a clone of yours. A lot of the cheap tablets share hardware designs and are identical inside.
[General Questions and Answers] 1bigguy:
So I should be looking more at what hardware it has in it to figure out a rom for it. ??

Hi all

I wanted to find out if there is a way to make the background transparent when having apps grouped. At the moment it is white and doest look good with the wallpaper.

Thanks
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pitrus-:
Hi ali_bobo

It all depends on your launcher. I don't think you can accomplish this using default trebuche launcher.

However using Apex and this Kitkat theme for example, you can accomplish something more like you want.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.szp.kitkat

Maybe there's a theme out there with completely transparent background even.

Edit: actually there's an option to make the background completely transparent under options. :)

Best regards

[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ali_bobo:
Hi pitrus

Thanks for the reply.

Would using a launcher such as Apex drain battery more and/or cause performance issues?

Also still cant seem to find option after your edit:

Where exactly is it?

Everyone knows that feeling when someone asks to use your phone but you're afraid to let them because they can go through everything on it. This is a serious privacy issue within Android; there is no easy way to lend others your phone without them being able to go through it. That's why I created Obstructer, an app for Android that blocks access to your device's content when you let others use your phone. It works by disabling the home button, the recent app screen and the notification bar. This makes everything on your phone inaccessible until you enter a password that opens when the call is ended.

Hello,

I've tried this app on my Xperia Z1 Compact and I have a few security flaws: The recents button is not disabled and when using Google Keyboard, you can long press the spacebar to get into the settings app. Also, you should probably disable the camera button. The lockscreen is a major security flaw too :/ Oh yeah, and I forgot to add that it shows the Sony dialer when calling a number :)

Regards,

Random
[Android Apps and Games] jayc137:
Mostly works as intended.

The main weakness of this app is that one can easily uninstall the app by going to settings from a insecure lockscreen.

A lock widget will be a great idea.
[Android Apps and Games] SShadowsapps:
That's interesting, it has worked on every phone I've tested. Did you set it as the default launcher?
[Android Apps and Games] SShadowsapps:
Huh, I never thought of that scenario. I will totally create a widget for this; that's an excellent idea. Thanks!

Can't emergency call be used in these cases too? or does android set a time limit/phone number limit on these calls?
[Android Apps and Games] SShadowsapps:
Emergency call can only be used to call emergency numbers, such as 911 or 112.
[Android Apps and Games] SShadowsapps:
Did you set it as the default launcher? This is the source of the problem most of the time. Also, it has to use the phone's dialer; there's no way that can be changed unfortunately. The lockscreen issue has been brought to my attention and I will create a default lockscreen to solve this problem.
[Android Apps and Games] chuko303:
Very nice
[Android Apps and Games] Random Username:
Of course I have set it as default...

Well, nice try, but I guess this app will never be completely secure :(

Updated Icon/Banner

Hello OP, I am a graphic designer and I go about helping others creating new Icons or just making their current ones a bit better.

I took the time to edit your current icon and make it look a bit more detailed. I sure hope you like it if not its fine I do this for fun not a living :fingers-crossed:

Updated Banner:

Updated Icon:

On the new icon I could not fix the way the top two icons look a bit darker than the bottom ones.. I may have to redo this process.

But it sure does look better than before IMO :good:

Also if you need anything else just let me know. I can edit and email it to you whenever.
[Android Apps and Games] SShadowsapps:
Sorry about that. Until the Android security policy changes, that's the only way your phone can be locked :/
[Android Apps and Games] SShadowsapps:
Eh, I love the new icons you made. The thing is, the "x" was designed to show how the app blocks your access, which is why it looks squared off. Plus I really don't like flat icons. Make the red darker, give it a more 3D look, make a squared "x" and I'll consider it.

looks neat, but i do not have GApps installed and dont plan to, Any chance top upload APK's to alternative sites or here on xda?
[Android Apps and Games] nobody_nowhere:
Yea. Please do upload the free version here too
[Android Apps and Games] voriax:
Great idea and I think you need reports to get it working,

as I needed it with my app Magus ( you can find xda thread here http://goo.gl/lx5HWQ )...

it's better to send people a clear message that's beta test not a full app...

why?

Samsung Galaxy S2 - home button enters the launcher and your app is gone :(

back button is blocked as expected,

your ads can lead to mass dissapoitment as my first message from ad was:

You have a virus, it is an ad and I know it but many people can get scared and will complain...

Great idea, keep it up and upgrade according to reports and you will get to stable version soon!

Good luck!

[Android Apps and Games] SShadowsapps:
It's weird, it seems as if Sony phones don't want to cooperate with this app. Did you press the home button to set it as the default launcher? Press the home button, select Obstructer and press always. That should fix it.
[Android Apps and Games] voriax:
Hello obstructer,

this is not wired,

it seems to be standard behaviour of your app - when you take a look at the number of people writing about this problem,

setting your app as a default launcher is not a solution

because it breaks probably the most commonly used button -> "home"

you need to find better solution,

Good luck!

V.
[Android Apps and Games] SShadowsapps:
Well unfortunately that's the only option to disable the home button. Every app that disables the home button does this {Toddler Lock, Home Screen Replacement, etc}. This is how your phone is supposed to be locked, it's not a bug.
[Android Apps and Games] voriax:
Hi obstructer

you misunderstood me,

I did not say it is a bug,

I just said that's not the solution that most user would expect,

but if it's true that there is no other way to block phone so it has to be this way and there is no discussion :)

I will have to give your app second shot :)

Greetings!

hello i'm trying this app on a desire HD with android 4.4.2 , i've set it to default launcher , and it works as expected , except for the notification bar:

even when i'm into obstructer i can swipe from top to bottom briefly to show notification bar ;

it is not a complete swipe from the top , i move the finger down roughly the size of the notification bar and it shows up ;

when i do a complete swipe notification bar is correctly hidden, i think it's default KitKat behauvior hard to override :confused:

nice app though :)
[Android Apps and Games] SShadowsapps:
Thank you for the compliment! Unfortunately, in the new version of Android, the notification bar cannot be disabled manually. Therefore, there is no workaround for this. Sorry about that :/

[HTC One X] nataxcan:
so here's the deal

i've been using my One X for a year or two now, half of the time with cyanogenmod on it, the other with Paranoid Android

but one day, the launcher crashed.

I rebooted it, thinking it was a temporary problem, and everything went fine for a few hours

after which multiple apps started crashing, then the launcher again.

I rebooted it again, hoping the problem would magically vanish, but my phone wouldn't boot, it'd stay on the bootloader screen

for a while now if I stood in the Phone app i'd be fine until the end of the day

since then, every time I install a ROM on my phone, it would go fine for a few hours, even a day or two, but then the problems come back, though I haven't been stuck in the bootloader since

i've tried formatting the SD card, i've tried restoring my phone from a clockworkmod backup and i've tried installing over 10 ROMs now, both sense-based and AOSP

Does anyone know where I should start looking to move toward permanently disabling the notification panel pull down?

Hi,

Those days I've been looking for a case for my D802, but so far I couldn't find the one I want. I thought you guys could help me, maybe some of could have the same case. I'm looking for 2 cases. The first one is a BMW case and second one is an AC Milan case. I'm big fan of both of them.
[G2 Accessories] GibonXL:
You have some big expectations, well it's not rude to be ambitious :)

My advice:

- order Yourself a Imak case, it fits the phone perfectly and doesn't make the device any bigger

- find somebody with a sewing machine and order Your very own custom case. You choose the patterns and bring the materials

- You can also find some a kind of stickers at ebay, maybe there will be BMW or AC Milan logos.

Looking forward for You reporting back with what You've found :laugh:

[G2 Accessories] testnet:
I have this one for my D802: search ebay for "Ultra Slim Quicksand Matte Frosted Bumper Case Cover for LG Optimus G2 D802".

Its really slim, its stiff and tough, and has a very grainy surface. I will never drop my phone in this case. :^)

The case edge extends just a bit beyond the surface so it won't land flat on the glass if dropped (on a flat surface). I like it a lot.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wolfmachine:
I have this issue that makes the photos taken in low light conditions (totally dark sometimes) with the flash on have a white and sometimes blue hue on the right side of the image. I don't have any case/ screen protector on the back side of my phone and the lens is absolutely clean. I've called the guys at Sony Xperia support and they told me to use the diagnostic tool to see if the camera and the flash were working and asked me to repair my phone with PC companion software update. Even after going through all of this there seems to be no change whatsoever Has anyone else had this problem with their xperia z1?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eclyptos:
You have the same problem with the camera like many already reported.

Same here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2613386

I also had the same problem and like many said to me, I telling this to you, learn how to use the camera on the phone.

I know this seems rude and I agree with you and I also do not agree about that because I don't spend a lot of money to waste my time to set up the Camera properly to avoid white ghost on my pictures, specially when I use iAuto Mode.

So what is the main reason and problem here? Like I already said this many times, the flash is too close to the lens. Technically nobody can said I am wrong if I said that because all we know if the flash will be more distanced from the lens we will get better pictures. Not all the users have this problem too, let's clarified here.

Now the solution is just only one, with some options you can avoid that and try different method to avoid the white/blurry shadows on your pictures. Many posted different type of solution and different settings so I can suggest to you only one thing, try and find the right options by your self, good reason to understand how working the camera too.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wolfmachine:
thank you. Will see what the guys at the service center are going to say when i take my phone to them.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wolfmachine:
Took it to the service center where they told me that they would install the "Original" Software ( a thing only they would have according to them) and that it would take 2 DAYS to download it. they didn't even listen to me when i said that i repaired the thing with pc companion. Whenever i have a problem, these guys seem to think that flashing their ORIGINAL firmware would magically solve all the problems.:rolleyes:

EDIT : Got a new phone after they replaced mine and even the new one has the same problem. Guess the person who decided not to put a flash in z ultra was a genius

If you think it have such a tool you misunderstood.

There are only 2 open doors to mail2web: OWA (Outlook Web Access) and OMA (Outlook Mobile Access). We can forget OWA. OMA is for syncing PocketPCs (ActiveSync Server). So we need a plugin or tool for the desktop outlook, that make it syncing over OMA!

I have my comcast email forwarded to the mail2web email address and leave the messages on my comcast server to download later to outlook.

I put the mail2web server source settings into Active Sync. It somehow syncs these server settings to the pda and with my unlimited monthly cingular data plan, I get ALL of my email OTA downloaded to my PDAphone immediately as it arrives to comcast.

Works great.

Yeah, that is possible. I am getting my gmail OTA, which I have forwarded to mail2web. My question was about syncing mail2web with desktop outlook, not mobile outlook. The idea is, then I dont have to sync with PC using USB cable at all. I sync with mail2web OTA, and when I log on to outlook on my PC it will sync with mail2web. So, I dont need a physical connection between PC and handheld. :lol:
