[G Pad 8.3 General] tdodd:
I'm downloading an update via the desktop software. It's 1519.33MB. No idea what's in it or why so much larger than the OTA update. I'm in the UK and my current software version is V50010a.
[G Pad 8.3 General] chargergti:
So... what update was yours?

Too big to just be the "b" update. Could you have received the KitKat?

Answer us! :D
[G Pad 8.3 General] brian566:
I have just checked mine via PC software no update latest software already installed V50010B which the one I downloaded OTA on Thursday that had Google drive

Sorry no Kit Kat !!
[G Pad 8.3 General] tdodd:
I'm afraid it was just the 'b' update. I can't say that I've noticed any changes other than Google drive updating following reboot, which I don't think I had installed before, and the backlight is now evenly lit at the lowest brightness setting.

Maybe OTA is just the updated parts and the desktop download is the full ROM. My device was rooted before the update, but hidden with the 'hide my root' app. Recovery remained stock and the upgrade was effortless other than 42 minutes to download, unpack, install and reboot. The reason I went with the desktop update is that OTA was getting constant server time outs. Mind you, desktop want working either until I rebooted my router (despite all other internet functions working properly).
[G Pad 8.3 General] chargergti:
Seems, since you had your LG rooted you had to "install everything".
[G Pad 8.3 General] xceebeex:
I still haven't gotten the b update yet. It keeps saying that I am running the latest. I am completely stock and just got this as an open box last week so I want to make sure nothing is wrong.
[G Pad 8.3 General] muiriddin:
It seems that so far only certain countries have gotten the b update in the US for example i am still on A.
[G Pad 8.3 General] xceebeex:
Yea, maybe it isn't in the US yet.
[G Pad 8.3 General] jsethi3:
True. I also restored my LG G Pad 8.3 to stock ROM from CMB ROM, and downloaded fresh ROM from LG site - and it is V50010A
[G Pad 8.3 General] MisterWB:
Thanks a lot ! It allow me to exit from this recovery boot loop !!!

I made an installer to execute from TWRP, it's safer and easier than terminal way.

It works well for me, use it at your risk

I just bought Xda neo and I copied every contacts from my SIM card to the device. The problem is, after that, when I click "contact" it will show both the copied contacts and the one in my SIM card, which both are the same!!! Anyone have the idea of how to make all of the contacts shown to be from my SIM card disappear?

Thanks a lot :)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] hellomoto_25:
Under HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone add a new DWORD value named "ShowSim" and set it to 0. No need to soft reset the contacts will be hidden when you next open the contacts window.

This was found using a search.

A very handy tool, search.

Thank you very much, I did it already and it works!!!

Doing the opposite

Ok how do you make the contacts disappear and only the sim card show up..

Then if you do this is there any way to look at the contact you have hidden without editing the reg to see agn

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ripdoozer:
Hello,

Does anyone out there actually use Verizon's Backup Assistant? I don't see any benefit to using this service when all of my contacts/media are stored within Google.

I was wondering because I might like to use Verizon messages to be able to SMS/MMS on my computer at work, and without using Verizon to back up my contacts, those contacts do not show names....just numbers.

Is there any benefit to using VBA?

Thanks!

Hello, I recently got xperia play, and decided to root my phone for better performance. Just for fun went to youtube and found this:

Then I remenbered this page, and just found few threads: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2240285 and http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1312859.

My phone specs:

If I am correct, according to first thread above, I cant root my device and second one is saying that I cant install JB on my device.

AAAAAAAAND... Im totaly confused now and dont know what to do. :( :confused:
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dev639:
Can you be more clear on what exactly are you trying to achieve?

if you wanna root your phone you must enable "unknown sources" inside applications and also under developing you must enable "USB Debuging".

Then plug your phone in the usb while it's turned on normally and execute the run-me in the zerg rush files.

after that you can install rom manager and get a recovery going on,

when you do have a recovery going on you can use it to flash a new rom.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lapius:
Ok, I rooted my device, what is rom manager? CM10?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dev639:
In this thread you will be guided to install a recovery

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1437840

It's basically install the apk ask the apk to install a recovery and you're done.

Now you will have theability to boot into recovery mode.

To do so you have to keep pressing volume down as you turn on your device.

You will then be able to proceed to installing custom roms.

You might also wanna research for flashtools from there on.

[Moto X Themes and Apps] hawkjm73:
I've made a small module that broadcasts an intent when the "OK, Google now" trigger phrase is recognised. The intention is to listen for the intent with an app such as Tasker and do your own voice interface from there. This module stops all native Touchless Control functions, so you have to handle any commands you want on your own. The screen does not turn on if it was off and internet connectivity is not required.

There are two beeps I haven't been able to track down yet, though one can be disabled via the Touchless Controls settings.

Xposed Repository

[Moto X Themes and Apps] charlie-n:
I'm not well versed in tasker, could you help me make a tasker action to here the ok Google now phrase then open the app utter and start listening
[Moto X Themes and Apps] hawkjm73:
First, you need a profile. It'll need an event for Intent Received, with com.hawkjm.okgooglenowtriggerintent.AUDIO_TRIGGER in the Action field.

Next, you'll need a task to command utter. I'm using autovoice, so I'm not terribly up to date on utter. They've got instructions and examples in this thread:

[Moto X Themes and Apps] swboland:
Hello, I've been using the "Google Now API" module for xposed framework with the tasker autovoice plugin. How is this module different exactly? The way I described, touchless controls is left intact and functions exactly how it would otherwise, but a command is given through autovoice to tasker, and Google now opens and does a search on whatever command you entered. What is different with your module?

Thanks in advance...
[Moto X Themes and Apps] hawkjm73:
This module basically hijacks the touchless controls trigger so you can do your own voice interface. My use case is :

-say "Ok, Google now"

-Tasker launches AutoVoice recognition

-I say something like "Start my car"

-Tasker handles the request and starts the car

My goal was to allow this to happen completely in the background, and with the screen off. This doesn't disturb anything else I might be doing on the phone, nor does it activate the screen. Also, it uses onboard recognition is available, and so is a bit faster then having Google Now do the recognition.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] charlie-n:
I've tried something very simple and it won't work please correct this if I'm wrong.

1. Open tasker

2 create profile /system/intent received

3. Typed com.hawkjm.okgooglenowtriggerintent.AUDIO_TRIGGER into the action field.

4. Hit back

5. Enter task menu pops up, and I click new task.

6. I give the task a name, then I click + to add action. I select App/ load app/ calculator.

7. I go back to main menu and make sure profile is active.

8. I go to home screen and say "ok Google now" I hear a beep. No action happens.

Does any one see anything wrong
[Moto X Themes and Apps] hawkjm73:
Lately, I've been needing to add steps to get Tasker to act as expected. Once you've completed your profile and task, completely exit Tasker, making sure to hit "save first." Then, if needed, deactivate and reactivate Tasker's monitor by long-pressing the little gear in the left corner. I usually run a little task that pops a toast then to make sure it is active. In most cases, just the full exit and save is sufficient.

If that doesn't work, check in Tasker's log to see if it is seeing the intent. If no, check your logcat for the intent being broadcast.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] charlie-n:
I fixed it, I had to install secure settings app to wake screen then launch the app I wanted, utter had so Manu more commands
[Moto X Themes and Apps] Globalrebel:
Is "Secure Settings" required for this to happen? Does Tasker need to be made an Administrator?

**Edit**

Looks like SS is required
[Moto X Themes and Apps] charlie-n:
This post should be way more populated, the possibilities of this plus tasker are endless
[Moto X Themes and Apps] Cyphir:
Is this module designed for KK or is it compatible with JB. I can't seem to get any logs in the tasked app. Will check logcat.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] imthekuni:
You should also check out with caioketo is doing in his thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2623063, seems pretty similar to this and they are still trying to retain Google Now functionality if you want.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] asdf1nit:
I'm going to try this out as soon as I get to my aunts phone. She got the x because moto advertised it for seeing impaired. I ended up having to use tasker and autovoice to make it speak back to her but it uses so much battery. Thanks for doing this! I will be back with my results.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] cocchiararo:
Just installed this, brilliant!

Commands that needed autovoice are executed immediately, if I needed Google now I just have an autovoice tasker triggered command for running the voice search app (too bad it seems we can't easily transfer a command from autovoice to gnow, but I now have instant autovoice, and one more step for Google now voice search, » ok Google now, search, "speak command")

[Moto X Themes and Apps] hawkjm73:
I wrote for and tested on a kitkat device. Unfortunately, I don't have a moto JB on hand to check it on.

Check the Xposed logs for errors if you don't see anything in the logcat or Tasker logs. Let me know if you find anything.

I looked in to dumping audio to Google Now as Touchless Controls does, but it needs stringent app permissions. It might be doable from inside TC, but I'm not sure if you can record audio at the same time you're doing voice recognition. If not, you'd just end up wasting time. (saying stuff twice) I'm likely to try and elaborate on this module over time.

This is awesome. Basically I'd like to be able to launch apps and skip songs while showering.

Currently I can get the phone to play a few specific artists. So for example if Pandora is playing and its a bad song I say OK Google now, the music pauses and I say listen to Basement Jaxx and it will play a station on Google music. However this doesn't work with many artists for some reason.

I think if the phone is capable enough to recognize my voice through sound disturbances from music and being in a small room it could be linked to say tasker to skip the track.

Ideas? Thanks for your time.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] MikeyNick:
I'm gonna go ahead and guess this only works on stock based roms that still have touchless control? I'm on gummy rom right now, and was going this could be a custom solution for the lack of touchless control, but the more I read the less it seems that way...
[Moto X Themes and Apps] caioketo:
Jenny, could you put some options so I can enable and disable it with tasker?

Like, I want to enable this (it will disable TC) for now, and then when I want to disable this (and enable TC) I could simply say and it would work.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] LukeNukem:
Nope, it's only working as long as touchless control does.

I have a question myself:

I'm using this with AutoVoice and Tasker and it's great! :)

But I'd like to pass the recognized command on to google search, like touchless control does.

At the moment I have a profile set up, with the AutoVoice No Match Event. That is starting a task sending a "android.intent.action.WEB_SEARCH" intent with extra: "query:%avcomms(1)" (the 1 is needed to not search for all 5 possible commands received).

Now to the problem: using that intent Google search doesn't provide any spoken output.

Does anyone know how to start the Google search similar to like touchless control does?
[Moto X Themes and Apps] cocchiararo:
you have gone way beyond what the rest had :P

When i want to use google now, i have a task that calls it after i say "search", and i speak to it.

What you are doing is pretty cool, to bad it does not speak.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] LukeNukem:
Well, I googled a bit and that's what I found. I'm not really understanding intents too much. :D

Yeah, I thought about something like that as well, but I don't find it much faster than normal TC with google now API.

But I searched a little more and couldn't find anything helpful. Seems like you can't send an intent to search with google thinking it's voice input... :/
[Moto X Themes and Apps] cocchiararo:
I was sure there was a setting somewhere to make google now speak to you even when writing to it... but i guess i was wrong
[Moto X Themes and Apps] hawkjm73:
Yes, this is utterly dependent on the actual Touchless Controls being present. I'd love to figure out how it actually does it's magic so I can make something independent, but the code is SO obfuscated.

Adding Tasker controls ought not be to difficult. Keep in mind, though, I'm basically learning Java while working on this, so changes may not be fast. I'll do my best, though.

The intent TC uses to pass it's searches to Google is protected to level 3, which is system/signature. Basically, an app either needs to be a system app, or signed by the same keys as the app receiving the intent. Also, it needs to be sent a raw audio of the voice commands, which Google Now then interprets. I'd rather figure out how to send text in and have it treated as speech. That would avoid having the rather slow recognition in GN, while still having it respond aloud. I would imagine this could be done from inside the GN app, but I haven't rummaged through it yet.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] mastarifla:
Possibly in the Accessibility section? TalkBack perhaps?

There is a user made Google Now API on Xposed that you could look at, it may contain some valuable information with regards to doing something like that.

maybe the dev of the google now api can help you with that?
[Moto X Themes and Apps] a10fjet:
OK I give up. I can't get tasker to receive the intent. I just have the xposed module and tasker. I set it up like you guys. Tasker has external access and administrative permission. I've rebooted tons of times. The task is flash 'bananas'.

When I say OK Google now nothing happens. It's listening. If I say anything then it stops listening and flashes " opening Google search". Of course it doesn't actually do anything after that. Also It never makes a noise. What the heck have I done?! Lol anyone have a clue?

Android 4.4 root at&t

I'll make a small donation to whoever can help me. I'm just that amped for total touchless control domination.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] a10fjet:
I made a tasker task that broadcasts the intent com.hawkjm.okgooglenowtriggerintent.AUDIO_TRIGGER and that triggers the profile. Fwiw

Edit: I'm an idiot, it just needed touchless controls to be updated... It works now.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] hawkjm73:
I apologize again for taking so long to get to this. It was pretty simple once I had time to hunt in the code. I've added a beta version to the module repository with a check on the version. I don't have a JB device to test on, but it was just changing two class names, so it ought to work.

Any Jelly Bean runners who'd like to try it, I'd love to hear back yea or ney.
