[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rgs88:
Hello,

I just installed I9300XXUGML2 on my i9300, the problem is that when trying to use GalaxSim unlock it says it is still not supported in this version.

I have the EVR version of the ROM which says it is Everywhere in UK and I am using Giffgaff. I have calls but still no internet even after configuring giffgaff APN options.

In 4.1.2 everything was working correctly, although I know that installing 4.1.2 from 4.3 could create issues.

What do you suggest?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallman43:
Hi little confused if you are using Giffgaff sim these can only be used in unlocked phones.Why would you need GalaxySim unlock! If you have calls then your phone is unlocked?...:)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rgs88:
Indeed, that is what I do not understand. I have calls but not Internet and I was thinking it was because galaxsim unlock has not be runned.

I placed the APN giffgaff settings in several ways but nothing seems working. I have the H+ symbol on top but just not having internet....

I really dont know what to do.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallman43:
Galaxy Sim doesn't work on new 4.3 update but you don't need it anyway you are unlocked if you weren't you would not be able to make calls.I would suggest trying another 4.3 stock rom.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rgs88:
Got it now... Sometimes the most obvious is not evident. I just changed how I paid giffgaff some weeks ago and it did not activate for this month, so I just paid and everything is OK now, thanks for your help. :)

Is there any solution to restore the old firmware. Ever since I upgraded the wifi always disconnect the external programs already purchased do not work properly. Someone help me please!

[Sprint LG Optimus G] doink123:
Hey guys,

Several days ago LG released an SDK for QSlide Apps, which allows 3rd party developers to integrate their apps with QSlide. I've decided to create a QLight plugin, which integrates Tiny Flashlight with QSlide Apps. The result: now you can start the flashlight directly from your notifications screen. Please note that this functionality requires both the QLight app and Tiny Flashlight v5.0 (currently in beta).

Android 4.2+

More info here: https://plus.google.com/110628468453341475793/posts/f8XqPDSffj2

You can get the files from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2560625 You need both qlight.apk and tf_beta.apk.

Android 4.1

QSlide on Android 4.1 does not support 3rd party apps. The only way to use QLight is to mask it as an LG application. There are 7 LG apps, which support QSlide, but only several of them are installed on every device. This gives us a chance to use LG's identifiers and install QLight as an LG app...

Try to install one of the 2 files attached at the end of this post. Only one is required. If both files fail to install that means your ROM has all LG QSlide apps already installed and there is nothing we can do.

You have to install Tiny Flashlight v5.0 ( tf_beta.apk ). Get it from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2560625

Reboot your device

If everything is OK you will see the QLight shortcut in the QSlide section in your notification window.

Drawbacks: The icon can not be changed and will be LG's default icon for the given application.

​
[Sprint LG Optimus G] mopo01:
looks nice. will this work on the lg optimus or do we need the qslide from lg2?

are you going to do any other apps for qslide?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] doink123:
The only requirement is Android 4.2, but this may work on earlier versions. LG mention in the docs that the floating windows part of the SDK require Android 4.2, but they don't say anything about the QSlide shortcuts. If anyone wants to test I can compile an APK, which requires an earlier version of Android.

As for other apps - my company's alarm clock app was updated today to support Samsung's multi window implementation and probably it will be updated to support LG's QSlide floating windows too.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] mopo01:
:o so this will not work on stock.

I did try using this but I get a message about not able to parse package which I assume is because stock is 4.1.2 :(

I would be willing to test if you build
[Sprint LG Optimus G] doink123:
OK I've attached a version for Android 4.0+ in this post. If everything is OK you should see the QLight shortcut icon in the QSlide apps section.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] mopo01:
Thanks for trying... While it did install it does not show in the q slide bar and is not in the edit menu :( might need the lg2 q slide (was hoping someone would port the lg2 stock for us....) which has more apps for starters. I only got the 4 basic apps calc messaging memo and videos the browser icon is there but only brings up a full browser
[Sprint LG Optimus G] doink123:
I still might be able to hack it. I'll purchase the Optimus G, so I can test.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] doink123:
OK, got the device and found a way how to hack it. I've updated the first post with instructions for Android 4.1
[Sprint LG Optimus G] mopo01:
That actually worked.

Not sure what you did but you did good.

If you could maybe the extra apps on the lg g2 (phone, messaging, browser the lg g browser opens but not as a floating vanishing window) can be hacked to work on the lg g 4.1 :cool: those would be great
[Sprint LG Optimus G] doink123:
Unfortunately, it's not possible.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] mopo01:
:crying: oh well, will have to wait for someone to port the lg g2 stock rom to the lgog.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] doink123:
Even with g2's QSlide you can't use all apps inside a floating window. The app must be specifically written to use QSlide.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] mopo01:
On the g2 the phone app and messaging app is floating on q slide
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BadFish79:
This looks like a great addition. However, I don't have Qslide on my phone. Haven't tried installing it.

Thanks for doing this though. We need more things like this.

8 lg qslide apps

Thanks for this app.. It's nice to see that new dev kit put to use :)

FYI I have 8 stock lg qslide apps on my lg g2..

Videos, phone, calendar, email, memo, voice mate, file manager and calculator. If you're missing one lemme know which one and I'll pull it for you if you want another lg identifier..
[Sprint LG Optimus G] AyDee:
Thanks for this. Nice work on TF in general, been using it for years!

Is there a way to add an option to leave the notification pulldown open (down) after toggling the light via Qslide? *Edit- Or a floating window would be cool!

I am on a G2 using a Flex hybrid rom & I too have 8 stock Qslide apps but instead of quick memo and voice mate (which are in toggles and swipe-up on home key) I have "internet" (that does open a new window) and messaging.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] doink123:
The notification pulldown is out of my control. Opening a floating window is possible on Android 4.2+. I'm adding it to my TODO list.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w4itg:
Hey y'all I was wondering if anyone knows what the deal is with the internal storage. When I enter the menu for storage it says the 6.2 GB of misc files but when I tap it it uses the stock file manager. I don't see any files in there that come close to that. I can't find it with a root browser either. I'm just wondering.

As far as I've noticed this is the only app that does this. In the youtube app when I use the share button there is no list of options. It automatically opens up the dropbox menu to choose a folder. Which I don't think is even possible?

Anyone else experience this?

I'm running the latest version of Viper. .
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] cmlusco:
You may have accidently set dropbox to be the default. Go to settings, apps, all tab. Find dropbox and dropbox for htc sense. Click on them and select the clear defaults button.

Sorry. . forgot to mention that I went into manage apps, and then all, and cleared preferences for all apps. Still only dropbox.

Okay I THINK this isn't an HTC device but I wanted to know if anyone has looked into it.

I really like the built-in GPRS and Bluetooth 2.0

I do know that it doesn't have WIFI but on my PDA2K I don't really even use the wifi so it's not a big loss for me.

I also wanted to know if anyone knew of a website like this for that device, I really like the way people help here and would hate to not have a place to go like this if I did buy the G500.

Any suggestions or ideas would be appreciated

http://www.etencorp.com/products/Communication/G500.php
[General Questions and Answers] mach1:
I just bought 50, for a specific purpose, but first impressions are:

rugged

stable

small

but

average battery life using GPS

no sodding instruction manual

FM radio promised but not yet released

No Keyboard

No WiFi

i haven't tried to install any GPS software yet, but i can confirm the hardware works virtually underwater, as we use it to track drivers as well as mobile data.

We're paying £272 plus VAT, and for our purposes it's great - which doesn't involve wifi or keyboard....

if the battery life was better i'd be buying 100 more
[General Questions and Answers] flicka:
I'd suggest also thinking about the Mio A701.

I think it does everything the G500 does but is smaller. I went for it over the G500 mainly because of it's size. And also because it takes full size SD cards
[General Questions and Answers] levenum:
Hi mach1!

There is a forum for ETEN owners:

http://www.eten-users.net

One thing you should consider is that this device uses mini-sd so there is no SDIO support, thus no way to add WiFi if you decide you need it.

Also no EDGE, HSCSD or 3G so forget about dissent internet access.

Any way, you should check out http://www.gsmarena.com. They got info on phones (PDA / Smartphones) from all leading companies including ETEN, all arranged nicely with full specs and user ratings and comments.

No prices though...
[General Questions and Answers] pjcltd:
We have 10 of the a701 and 5 a700 yes thay are a bit smaller but

thay are not as stable as the G500 we use ours for personal tracking etc

and have not had any problems with then at all

and thats with tomtom and our own GPS tracking software.

hope this helps
[General Questions and Answers] Robson:
bought a mio a701 and to be honest i really like it and i think it'll go a long way before i replace her. tried out the gps navigation using mapking (in bangkok) and i sure didn't get lost. the voice nav told me where to go and such and from there all went fine. i didn't get the eten because of the mini-sd; all of my accessories are using sd card (example; my digicam). i also like the mio because of the looks and the size. i'm not a fan of wifi nor do like having a keyboard so it works fine for me. mio will be releasing a rom sometime later on and that will support push email AND a2dp (for stereo bluetooth function). since i use an itech clip s headset it's just a matter of waiting until the new rom is released. when i listen to the tunez i can hook up my bluecon bt adaptor which allows me to listen wirelessly.

[General Questions and Answers] vlad69uk:
A701 GPS

Were currently testing both the A70 and G500. Has anybody seriously tested the 'location call' software on the A701?

In the tests we have performed the GPS position is incorrect. In a comparison between TomTom and Visual GPSCE the position do differ. I am assuming there is an offset or algorithm which computes the correct location.

What i'm looking for is a program which does the same thing as location call, i.e. send your gps position by sms, but actualy send the correct gps position.

Has anybody come across one?

Cheers

Paul

E-TEN G500 bought instead Qtek 2020i (waiting for Qtek S310)

Hi,

I changed devices cause i wanted integrated gps. Sometimes you're in your car and the bluetooth receiver is at home (for safety of stealing), and sometimes pairing bluetooth takes a while.

Actually i'm waiting for the HTC Trinity (Qtek G200) or Qtek S310.

Both devices will be with GPS & WIFI inclusive.

The Qtek S310 looks very spacy and will be released end of 2006 (hopefully).

At the moment I also have an all-in, the E-TEN G500 with SPECTEC MINI WIFI-SDIO CARD. I like the smooth blue colourlines / size / battery and functions.

I updated the rom to the 0097 and now can receive FM radio & TMC (Traffic messaging control) which gives you information about busy traffic and leads you away from it. This only works when you connect the wired headset as antenna,but no problem.

Now that it's also become an all in, i'm doubting to buy the new upcomming Qteks, I like this E-TEN very much, smooth look, compact, processor very good, and carkit included in package!

I never doubted about the Mio A701, the E-TEN is a much cooler device. Only the sound quality & speaker is less, but I love this device!

Greetz,

Hey everyone. Im sure that you have all heard about Ubuntu For Android. About a few months ago it was just an idea. But now there are over 50 phones supported by developers and about 50 more being worked on.

Ubuntu does officially support the Nexus 4, Nexus 7 (2012 version) and the Nexus 10, and the old Galaxy Nexus. Since they are all AOSP devices and ours is...well someone aosp, i was thinking i would give a go and see what i can do. There is a guide and lots of details and instructions on how to do this on their website:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Install

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting

If anyone wants to have a go at this and get in touch with me to work on this together ( i dont have much porting experience but i will try ) because i could use alot of help.

Thanks

PS:You WILL need Ubuntu 12 -14 (any version there). And since my laptop is a XXXX HP it doesnt like ubuntu 13.04 so im gonna have to get 13.10 and work from there since my pc is really really stupid.

Updates:

-After doing some searching. There are no devices in the 8930+ range of Qualcomm chip-sets that have been ported or are being ported. So we will have to either 1. wait or 2. start from scratch.

-Okay...we will also need CM10.1 to build from...and since we dont have cm10.1 i guess we could use the One Mini...if IF if they have it.

Hey there,

I have an issue here and I am not really sure on how to solve it.

The Logcat says:

After this, my app freezes and I can do nothing more, than uninstall the app and create the database new. A restart with the taskmanager does not repair it.

In my app, I have an intent, which downloads every hour some data per Bluetooth. This data is the stored in my database. If I try to access the database in this time, the issue apears.

For now, I made sure, that only one instance of the SQLiteHelper is opened, so I have this static method:

static BatteryManager getInstance(Context c)
{
if(bm==null)
bm = new BatteryManager(c);
return bm;

}

Right now, I am inserting the data with a simple sql command and :

this.getReadableDatabase().execSQL(sqlCommand);

I know, that there are cleaner ways, but this would not solve a problem like this, right?

After some googling I found out, that a content provider would help me, is this correct?

What would you suggest?

Thank you for your help!

Guys i had decided to get a Sony smartphone with waterproof,so i think this is the best option for me.

It costs about RM1,200 in Malaysia.

I'm also considering of Xperia Z1 but it's too expensive,costs about RM1,700,which was out of my budget.

So guys please tell me about this phone cons & pros,and about the 4.3 update performance,thanks :fingers-crossed:

Got some questions,will you think that Sony will support it till 2015 ? (Maybe Android 5.0)

Is it worth it to buy ? Any problem with it ?

1 more thing should i wait for Sony MWC 2014 ?

Maybe Sony will unveil a device which have the specs of about SP.

The Sirius will be pricey so i can't afford it.
[Xperia Z General] Tommy-Geenexus:
It's a solid phone, but the 4.3 update brought serious bugs, the cam and battery time is greatly affected by those bugs. Let's hope sony fixes them.

Also it won't get past android 4.4.

[Xperia Z General] Coirpre:
It is a good phone. there are some issues with the back plate coming unglued (if you would read the forum instead of asking for the info to be served on a silver plate you'd know ;) ).

the 4.3 update is fast and fluid, and i have found no bug except for "excessive delay, took vsync XX ms", which I have not read about on this forum, and a symmetry bug when taking screenshots.

battery life is ok, I can play ingress for ~3.5 hours (3g, GPS, screen on, rendering tons of 3D graphics)

it will hopefully be supported until 2015 (the Xperia T also got a 4.3 update...)

[Xperia Z General] Ben Ling:
do you know how to root the latest 4.3 firmware ?
[Xperia Z General] kingvortex:
There's no exploit to root 4.3 currently, so the only way to root if you're already on 4.3 is to unlock your bootloader and flash a kernel with a custom recovery.

Either that or downgrade to 4.2.2, root and flash a prerooted 4.3 rom.
[Xperia Z General] doministry:
Nope. I didn't do it.
[Xperia Z General] emailpeter:
Hi Ben,

Its a good phone, I've used same Z for almost a year now. Like the others comment here, watch out for the back cover issue. Find a shop to glue it back with

3rd party glue

if it loosens, coz the foam strip glue will not last more than a year or so....water goes in...all kinds of problems in drying. And ensure the flap covers are locked in tight when you wash your phone.

Ben, may I kindly ask the contact of shop you got your Z from ? At that price, I might get a spare one as my current one has been flooded with water many times....Thanks

[Xperia Z General] Hellscythe:
a few things you should keep in mind

camera is bad

phone gets hot

battery life is mediocre

screen has washed out colours

wifi is weak

sony is late with updates

dev scene seems to be a bit slower compared to the HTC and Samsung flagship devices.

also, i listen to a lot of music so the flaps get annoying
[Xperia Z General] kingvortex:
- The camera isn't perfect and isn't great under low light, but is acceptable under most conditions for me. Hopefully, an update will return the camera quality to what it was under 4.2.2.

- The phone only gets hot after extended periods of playing demanding games for me.

- I get at least 5 hours of screen on time and 2-3% of battery drain overnight. Hardly mediocre.

- The screen may look washed out when compared to other devices, but to me the colour is more natural.

- I get good wifi reception at the end of my large garden, maybe 60-70 metres from my router.

- At least 6 updates, including 2 upgrades to new versions of Android in 9 months is late with updates? If you want fast access to the latest version of Android, you should have gone Nexus.

- Less popular devices will have less dev support. The development section is far from dead though.
[Xperia Z General] doministry:
I don't know. As I always try to find good settins, I say Z camera is great.

I use it very very often and the general outcome is great. In every conditions.

Nothing is washed out here as well. You repeat some bull..t, the screen is fantastic.
[Xperia Z General] Tommy-Geenexus:
+1 to that

The only thing that isn't that good on the screen are the black levels and viewing angles.

I honestly cant see a big difference to my n5 screen except these.

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 5 mit Tapatalk
[Xperia Z General] kingvortex:
People think the screen is washed out because they're usually comparing it to a Samsung device that the colours are hugely over saturated on.

Like I said, I think the Z screen actually more faithfully reproduces colours rather than trying to make them pop out of the screen.
[Xperia Z General] doministry:
Plus on videos and photos Bravia kicks in, giving amazing contrast.

On UI it's more settle so it doesn't kill the eyes.
