Hi .. im using the latest xnote v15..

Ive got problem on my status bar... when I receive a notifcation it overlaps on the clock. I set my clock to be in center via xnote app..

Note:

You will notice in the screenshot that im using dualclock xposed module.. but even I disable/remove the dualclock module in xposed im still facing the same problem..

Set clock to right in Xnote settings. Use GravityBox to change it back to center.

Help

I just realised that when I'm playing songs, no matter in which mode(normal, vibration, or silent mode) I'm. When a message coming in, the song will pause for a while and then continue playing. It's not normal.

In stock rm, when I'm in silent mode, my song playing will not be interrupted, isn't ?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antique_sonic:
Shld be normal if u not changing anything. Stock tom also like that. On my device with any rom, only whatsapp msgs, viber msgs which will continue playing without pausing.

Sms and other apps will pause the song a while.

Yup i dont deny. This is a Q&A thread right? So questions are meant to be asked? If I missed something out you could just say it, which I did.

As someone new to flashing, it is a lot of things that I'm new to and can digest in a day so pardon me if I have to be "spoonfed".
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fahadali2315:
Really :) How did you find the link for downloading the rom ????By looking for it right ? I wasted hours writing this thread and All in vain.No point if noobs come here and keep asking the same question over and over again rather then reading the damn thing.

Now i am done spamming. Dont reply.

If you are more sarcastic jokes PM Me :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skade:
telling me when I should or should not reply? Really?

With all due respect and right now I am giving you honest feedback: had the exact steps been posted the way it was, I'm pretty sure questions will be reduced. Telling people to do an OTA update doesn't mean much. Maybe I'm too used to writing application guides and saying "look for OTA updates" don't cut it but hey, I could be the only idiot here with my opinion so don't mind me. Just going to leave this little food for thought here for your consideration. :)

Typing the answer is faster than typing out my "read the OP" speech. May need to copy paste it next time.

What's the point in asking something in the Q&A thread that's already been answered In the OP? That's silly and useless IMO.

We aren't against question being asked here, we are against ppl being lazy and asking without reading the OP..

Anyway since this discussion is over, let it stay over. I just had to reply cuz you decided to question the purpose of this thread....

You can read and learn. We don't spoonfeed. If nick wasn't asleep, he wouldn't have spoonfed either. Ppl don't learn anything from being spoonfed, we lead ppl to the answer but they have to find it themselves or there is no point... You spoonfeed someone and they will become dependent on you rather than learning for themselves and fixing their issues on their own. Most of the spam in these forums occurs due to spoonfeeding.

Now that being said I agree a little with the fact the OTA are a bit confusing, read below...

Alright you know I am against spoonfeeding but after a little thinking i think the user might be a little right, he wasn't saying this and he probably didn't even read the OP but... Some of the OTA names are really confusing. Maybe we should recommend that solo names them in a way that makes them easier to understand what they fix.

I need to think of a better line when trying to end spamming. You copy it but it never works...LOL

I'm not trying to start some fight here. I sent a PM to thread OP with some suggestions, As a total noob, I can tell you honestly that yes i saw that big line in OP, read it many times but never would I imagine that the issue with my email and exchange would come from a fix from my magazine in the OTA.

i believe that i can give fresh perspective as a complete noob. in fact, i wasn't even sure what it means to flash the OTA but i googled a bit and used recovery to do it. as a fresh noob, these are the questions a noob would have. if the instructions are just not clear, you're going to face the same old questions again.

in my previous line of work writing application guides and FAQ, I had to treat users like complete strangers to an app, no matter how established it may be. just look at the microsoft or apple documentations. while most of you might not have an issue looking for the sim card tray on the iphone, if a complete new user to apple gets an iphone, im sure they will be wondering where it is. it's the same here, just a whole lot more complicated since these language are from "dev speak".

write the FAQ for the lowest common denominator, that is what i am saying. if it helps, i can try to compile my experiences with the step by step help provided to update on the first few threads. :)

Hi,love the new build!! But really missing the lock button on the statusbar in earlier vers.Any zip I can flash to get it back?Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicholaschum:
I wrote the FAQ to cater to the most casual and non-systematic way so that the majority of the people here would feel comfortable.

To be honest when people compare our thread to other threads, they forget the fact that X-Note is the most popular ROM with the most features for ANY Note 3 variant, hence we get loads of questions.

The fact that people flashed X-Note was because they had some general idea on how to do these things, after reading. You aren't expected to flash a custom ROM if you're a "complete new user". Removing a SIM tray is easy to explain, as that is hardware and everyone knows how to operate hardware - even your pet cat would probably know how to play fruit ninja on an iPad, but the thing is, this is a developer website, not a place to make your phone look cool, you come here because you want to, but whether you meet the prerequisites to browse the site (like courses at a University) is how you get feedback around here - You don't go into an advanced 4 year compsci course, load up Eclipse and ask how do you type any code...you have to search and learn prior to browsing and doing changes to your gadgets.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XRivetGirlX:
I went through this thread and didn't see this problem mentioned, so I apologize if I missed it.

I have encountered a serious issue that has cropped up with X-Note 15. I started from a fresh install (full wipe including Dalvik) from X-Note 14 on my Note 3, and everything installed just fine. But then I went to make a call. Well, each time I click on the dialer, I get a message that says "Unfortunately, contacts has stopped working" and the dialer crashes. I have wiped and reinstalled 6 times, I've cleared all contacts and dialer caches multiple times, but no luck. I am stuck with no way to call out on my phone, which obviously is a rather large problem.

I love the ROM dearly, and I don't want to use any other! :)

Any assistance you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

Proximity sensor problem.

Hello,

I've recently clean flashed V.15 and love it but I'm having trouble with my in-call proximity sensor. Once my call is connected and my phone is put to my ear, the screen will (correctly) switch off however, when taking the phone from my my ear during the call, the screen will not turn on until i press the home button, the screen will not turn off when put to my ear again and my face will trigger the soft buttons on the screen. Would this be in a setting that i may have triggered? Thank you for any help.

I've donated a fair amount to XDA and given to devs for years, and you're the kind of new breed that make this place hostile.

This is the first non Nexus device I've had, and considering the sheer amount of options (even more so than Paranoid Android) that are available on X-Note, it's not unreasonable to think it was a module I'd overlooked.

Thanks for the curt reply, I'd actually managed to figure it out not long after posting.

Haven't you heard, "common sense isn't so common".... And honestly I think if the mods were more active in this forum we wouldn't have to face this nonsense, these forums are a mess, I keep wondering if toddlers post here or mature ppl. Honestly I have just started ignoring posts like these that just clutter the thread, if it's something that can harm their device then I answer. Otherwise ignoring is a better option. No point in replying and causing more spam. Only replying to him cuz he is wrong but he wants to call you out and say you are wrong. Which is absolute nonsense.

Search the thread, if I am not mistaken something was posted about that. Only 2 or 3 ppl have had that issue.

Let me guess you have 2 windows open and then you just click to open another window? That's not how it works, hold and drag the app you want to open.

So you think donating gives you the right to spam threads? You didn't have date on the lock screen widget any normal person would go into lock screen setting and check, THEN if he didn't find anything he would search the thread to see if something related was asked, THEN if he found nothing he would ask.

He isn't the "breed" that's making xda a worse place, it's your kind of lazy spammers that just ask..ask..and ask..Try finding it on your own, try reading.. This is xda developers NOT xda spoonfeeder.

As for more options here than in nexus, my last phone was a nexus and trust me those forums were A LOT better than the note 3 forums, here ppl just want to spam, I wonder why you think that forum was better as these forums are more tolerant for spammers than nexus forums...Reading is forgotten. Searching is forgotten..Apparently Google doesn't even exist.

I've doubled your tenure here, I know how it works, and sometimes even after searching, I can't find the answer. So I post. Try searching this Q&A thread for 'No date on lock screen'. There's only one hit now and that's Dejan Sathanas lambasting me.

Ever heard the saying 'Can't see the woods for the trees'? That saying applies to us all sometimes.

That's something I used to say four years ago, I've had very little to do with the community in the last couple of years, it's nice to see attitudes are still the same. It's time to take a step back from the keyboard when someone having a 'wood for the trees' moment asks a simple question and it gets your back up. :eek:
