I don't know how to do that, sorry, however have you considered putting the date above the time on the taskbar? That way you can see the date in every window, and you can save even more today screen space.

[General Accessories] jerdog:
It's always refreshing when a company releases an accessory that can be used with anything, aka "universal", instead of marketing directly to iPod/iPad/iPhone/iPood devices. Standzout is one of them, even though they do have products marketed directly to those other devices. Even though I was not able to attend CES 2014 due to some conflicts, I was able to get a hold of one of their Standzfree

Universal

Tablet Floor Stands to check out.

Seeing as I spend an awful lot of time working from home and my desk is never clean enough to put more than my keyboard, phone, mouse and monitors, a tablet floor stand is perfect! And, seeing as I occasionally do stints as a guitar player a stand for my tablet while playing is essential. So I went about setting this sucker up.

First thing I noticed was how purely heavy it is. Most of that is the floor base stand itself - requiring more than just myself to attach the base. Luckily I had a minion around (who oddly enough looks like me) to help steady the base while I screw in the screw with the provided allen wrench. Once it was nice and tight it was quite evident that this stand isn't going to move around any.

After using the stand with my tablets at my desk for a few weeks, I found it to be just like having another monitor. I was able to adjust it to the right height given that it has a telescoping neck which gives it about another foot in length (TWHS), so I could sit at my desk, turn to the side and immediately have it right there. And in fact it holds my Samsung Note Pro 12.2 quite well. It was time to take it to a gig.

It was there I noticed immediately what could keep me from using this outside the office. Whenever I needed to turn a page on the setlist, the thing moved. It wasn't that the base itself moved (which it does if you push too hard on the tablet), it was that with a tablet in the holder it's easy to move it because it's up in the air. Not even sure how to avoid it - but i have the same problem in the car with a suction cup phone mount. It's like the tablet just floats and moves easily on the stand.

Outside of that, I am impressed with the stand but will only use it at my desk or maybe by the bed at night. If you're interested in one, you can head on over to their site to read about it and purchase one if you so choose.

I found which ROMs have SPEN support in the Note 2 forum, but I didn't find anything in the Note 3 forum especially for T-Mobile.

So, is there a list or does know which of the custom rooted 4.4.2 ROMs have SPEN support?

I found this post:

However, it doesn't say exactly which ones are TouchWiz and/or support SPEN.

What do you mean, "Any that are NOT labeled. NA2-NB7 are all touchwiz"???

what do you mean any that are not labeled. I ask because the way you wrote it I am wondering what you mean, any that are not labeled AOSP/AOKP or any that ARE labeled NA2-NB7 are touchwiz?

The one sentence in the middle is what is confusing. Any that are not labeled. Labeled as what?

Could you please clarify?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rabatinova:
My samsung galaxy i9300 has been working great for a year and suddenly started to act funny.

One day it works without any problem, then from nowhere, phone lying on the table and the power/shutdown menu starts randomly appearing and popping up, like I would want to turn the phone off or restart it. And Im not even touching it.

I tried many different ROMs, official, custom, I took it to the samsung service and they changed the power button.

I tried different batteries, chargers, switched the main board to different s3 phone, but it still, once in a while, does that popping up power off menu thing.

If I let the menu appear for a certain period of time and do nothing, the popping up frequency gets higher and higher until it restarts the phone and then ends in bootloop.

Sometimes if I remove the battery for a certain period of time, the phone starts up and works like nothing happened a minute ago. Other times it does not boot up and stays in bootloop.

I figured out that if I continue to push power button in a one second intervals after powering the phone, it continues to boot up and starts up. I enter the PIN code and then the phone either acts again like nothing happened, or starts the popping thing again.

If I keep pushing the power button while the popping up shutdown menu is happening, I kind of cancel the whole thing and phone works okay, ending again either in no problem state and working like a new phone, or restarting itself and bootlooping.

It doen not happend at certain time or while doing any specific activity or while in specific app, or anything, totaly random thing, sometimes during the call, week later during the night, 2 days after in my pocket, 10 hours later while lying on the table.

Thank you for any ideas what could be causing this.

It feels like there is some kind of interuption for a while and it starts the issue. I dont understand much about frequencies, but could any radio frequency or whatever cause such a thing? :confused:

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] geefer:
Hey guys,

Sorry for the poor wording, but there's times where I want a full-blown smart watch using Foamey's ROM but to be honest I love having the watch with the traditional look, and not a watch that looks like a small Android tablet.

What I'd love to do is install his ROM but have it kind of "run in the background", and make it look stock. I would use the Bluetooth Tethering Toggle (preferably as an icon I can swipe to much like a stock Gear has now) to do things like give me access to my Phillips Hue Lights instead of having to grab my phone from the charger.

I'm guessing I just install the launcher but the first time it asks whether I want to use it or the stock launcher when I press home, I just choose the stock launcher? Other than that all my notifications will work just like I'm stock?

Thanks a lot guys.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Brendo:
Yep, just use stock launcher. Launcher determines look. You can switch between launchers

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kaptr1d:
I'm a first-time poster here but I've been using XDA for years to root and flash phones. My first android phone was the EVO 4G and I've had about 5 since then, all of them rooted and flashed multiple times with no issues to date... until now!

My wife has an older T-Mobile Galaxy S2 (T989). She was having problems with the keyboard hanging and text messages lagging so rather then wipe it and restore the stock ROM I figured I might as well update it.

I used the latest release of CWM and rooted the phone with SU.

Then I flashed a new radio ( SGH-T989D_TLMC4_radio ).

Then I flashed Paranoid Android 4.0 beta 6.

Then I flashed mini gapps.

Everything on the phone seemed to be working great but then today at work she tried making phone calls.

The phone is able to dial and make calls and pickup and receive calls but the actual call quality is terrible. The voices are all broken up and have high pitched digital noise mixed in with the voice of the other caller.

Should I experiment with flashing different radios? I did a search and couldn't find much but I wasn't sure how to word the problem so it might be a common issue that I'm not aware of. Thanks!

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Reg Edit:
I recently dismantled my BA to work on the LCD. I originally thought it would be necessary to disconnect the keyboard ribbon from the main board, so I removed the tape and black clip from the surface mount connector. However, it turned out I could leave the ribbon in place, so I didn't remove it.

After reassembly, only a few of the keyboard keys now work, and the blue LEDs no longer work at all. :(

I was careful not to force or twist the ribbon at all as I worked, so I don't think it's damaged, but I haven't been able to make the black clip go back on properly. I suspect this is the problem. I have tried to reseat the clip but without success and the keyboard is still the same.

Can someone please explain the role of this black clip and tape, and their relevance to the electrical connection. And can anyone direct me to a 1000x magnified picture of how the clip is supposed to fit!

Thanks in advance...
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] yodafreak:
Hi there,

I had a similar problem when dissasembling one of my PPC6600 phones. The ribbon is quite dellicate, and I wound up ripping the outer conductor (it is the thicker one, and it happens to power the backlight LED's). Needless to say, I had to use a very fine tip soldering iron and some hair-fine wire to fix the mess. When I got my hands on a scrap one from EBAY (for like, 75 bucks because the ESN was locked out), I pulled the keyboard from it and replaced my hack.

Also, I have added to the WIKI a procedure to take apart the BA. I think you can find that HERE -> http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=DIS_BA_PICS

Check out the one pic that is big that shows you how to flip up the clip.

The connector you are talking about has a little black (brown?) clip that flips up 90 degrees to allow the ribbon to come out. If you didn't flip it up, you might have been able to remove the ribbon, but tough luck getting it back in. You can stick your fingernail in there where the ribbon goes, and lift up on the clip. It should pop up ad remain connected quite easily. Also, when you re-insert the ribbon, you want to make sure that the two protruding tabs on the ribbon 'seat' fully against the connector before you push the clip back down onto the ribbon.

Have fun!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Reg Edit:
When I did the work I had already seen your exellent pics (thanks :)) and my black clip came right off when I lifted it. So my problem is getting the black clip back on, so that it can be flipped up and down normally again. At no time did I try to remove the ribbon so I don't think it's damaged - but I'm wondering if the black clip needs to go back properly before the electrical connection is good again.

PS to anyone dismantling BA - remember to remove both the SIM and the SD card/blank, as these both jam the cover and prevent removal - shame if someone missed this and snapped something :( . (I tried to add this info to the page with pics but the Edit button wouldn't let me do it - gives a "page not found" error.)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] yodafreak:
Hi again,

My phone doesn't have a SIM card (is this a European thing or are there some carriers in USA that use SIM cards?)

Anyhow, I think I remember dealing with connectors like these before and having that clip pop off. There are two little tabs on the clip that have little round buttons on each side of the clip tabs, and these buttons prodtrude off the sides of the clip. They match a slot on the connector part that is surface mounted to your mainboard. So, you have to align the clip properly so that these protruding bumps 'pop' back into the white housing on both sides. Now, if these tabs broke off.... then I guess you're outa luck, unless I guess you find some very thin plastic that you can shove in on-top of the ribbon (underneath the part of the housing where the clip SHOULD have gone), so that it pushes the exposed conductors of the ribbon down onto the connector.

Hope this helps!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Reg Edit:
Many thanks, this helps a lot by confirming (a) how the clip fits and (b) its role in the electrical connection. This information is much appreciated as it gives me a fighting chance when I next have a go at fixing the thing!

How do you get by without SIMs? Does that mean a phone is forever tied to the one provider and phone number?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] 3waygeek:
It's a GSM thing. GSM phones (like the PDA2K or SX66) use SIM cards, CDMA phones (like the PPC6600) don't.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bladerealm124:
My note 3 has noticeably worse reception than my note 2 and thunderbolt did in the same location. The problem seems even worse when wifi is on. In my home I almost never have a signal unless I'm near a window. I noticed that when I turn wifi off I sometimes quickly get a signal back (usually just 1/2 bars of 1X) and my phone seems to have a much easier time maintaining that signal than when wifi is on.

Does this have something to do with the software/radio in the stock ROM? Perhaps for power saving purposes? Has anyone experienced a better signal after rooting and flashing a custom ROM? Not sure what to do as the phone is flawless otherwise but this problem has been incredibly frustrating. Thanks

It's definitely what Verizon did to the phone or their towers. we all have the same problem. ..and truth be told I called Verizon about this and no sufficient answer was given..next day I went to att go...I've been good and even saving $60 more...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
ROMS have nothing to do with reception. Zero.

Radio firmware, maybe (but even the evidence for that is rather slim. Usually the only things radio firmware updates ever change are things that only the carrier can detect - obscure low level stuff.).

Reading between the lines, it sounds like your signal is weak to begin with (and somewhat worse for the N3 compared to other devices). Since you mention WiFi, I presume you have a separate (wired) ISP, so you would probably be a good candidate for a micro/femto cell range extender. (It gives you localized 3G service for voice & SMS service but actually passes both as VoIP to your carrier across your Internet connection.) You can add a bunch of devices to it if you have a family plan.

There is really only two ways that WiFi would cause interference with the cell radio: either the phone hardware is defective or your router hardware is defective (interference spurs outside it's normal frequency bands).

In contrast to the prior respondent, I don't make the claim that my experience must be identical to everyone else's ... but FYI I'm sitting 20' from my WiFi router, and I have 4 bars WiFi & 4 bars LTE service.

good luck
