Kalkat,

Great theme I'm a huge Star Wars nerd so this was right up my alley. Any chance of getting that dialer by itself? I'd love to combine it with some other stuff to see what it'll look like.

Hi everyone!

Recently I've created my new Android app and today I'd like to introduce it!

Finger Scanner - app simulating a fingerprint scanner that might be used to prank your friends or to unlock your device in a unique way! :D

Unlike other similar apps it has no secret button what so ever. It uses built-in camera to detect whether you cover the camera lens and runs special algorithms to determine whether to unlock your phone.

Main features:

- lockscreen replacement,

- override home button (compatible with launchers)

- two different scan working modes,

- many customization options,

- scan or pin unlock mode

Google Play link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.lksoft.fingerscanner

[Android Apps and Games] Luke3:
Thanks for your comment. This error is caused by data overload. You either are clicking on scanning area too fast or your phone can't handle the scanning time that you've set (which shouldn't be the case for your Alcatel OT-6033A). Did you manage to unlock it anyway?
[Android Apps and Games] nathandrake:
I could unlock my device without problems but the same message alway appears to me.

Today I,ve updated my app to version 1.2 adding option to set custom wallpaper and to override home button. This option is marked as experimental (on Android version 4,0+) but after overriding home button you should still be able to use your own launcher without issues ;)

When I open the My Pictures app in WM5, is there a way to make it default to the folder on my storage card, instead of the My Pictures on internal memory?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] andy3000:
I am having the same problem.

Pictures save onto my storage card, but the viewer does not default to display pictures from there. Also frustrating is that I click the pull-down location chooser and choose Storage Card but it does not take effect unless I pick another location first -- it just ignores my click.

I have found that My Pictures & Video stores registry entries of folder locations for both internal & storage card, and have tried making them both on the storage card, to no avail.

Does anybody have a solution to this problem?

It is indeed a problem for those of us who store our photos & video on the storage card, as I cannot use the nice feature "Play screensaver when connected to my PC and idle for 2 minutes"
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] fuel925:
No one knows a way around this problem? Surely there must be a reg edit or something that could do the trick?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] fuel925:
Still looking for a solution to this!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] malatesta:
Can anyone figure this out? It is quite annoying having to use the stylus every time to re-naviage to my picture folder... :shock:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] meschle:
Don't think there is a fix for this - tried various registry tweaks with no joy - I think the default directory is hard coded into the picture viewer software.

I use Xnview pocket as my default viewer and its much better and faster than the default one and you can change directory to where ever you want. & its free http://xdaforums.com/download.php?id=12698
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] malatesta:
I've read lots of good things about XnView...but one question: does it have WM5 soft key controls? I though it didn't but haven't used it myself.

I've tried lots of pic apps (Resco, SplashPhoto, PictPocket LE) but either they are not WM5 compatible (Resco) have annyoing menus (Splash) or don't have a resize option for emailing (PicktPocket).

I'm trying to avoid using the stylus.

The default pic applicaton in WM5 is slow as hell but I like the simple editing controls, basic soft key functions (could be better, like selecting directory) and how it resizes any pics for emailing.

If I could find something that did all of that I'd be happy!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] meschle:
Xnview does not have soft key control but i find its speed more than makes up for this. It does not have direct email control but can resize the image to what ever size you need and many other image manipulations. It is also able to capture screens - and its zooming is better than the default one, plus you can have a slideshow with mp3 music.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Walter.White:
Unfortunately there are currently only two devs working on this [MENTION=766721]ryanbg[/MENTION] (he is mostly working on N3) and [MENTION=4939386]Surge1223[/MENTION] (he is mostly working on S4).

Here are the things needed for any phone to be unlocked.

1. Large userbase.

2. Most (if not all) variants of the phone has locked bootloader.

3. No developer edition phone.

4. Ungreedy dev who is not going to sell off the exploit to the oem or carrier in exchange of money.

5. Nice enough "guaranteed" bounty for it to be worth dev's time.

6. Dev who is not scared to be sued by the carrier/oem for releasing unlocked bootloader/exploit/signing key.

And in this case we are missing most of the above requirements, if not all.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shangrila500:
Well from what I understand there have been a few posts on other forums about Adam Outler posting a picture on his G+ showing Secure boot off but he later had to delete it because people didn't understand that Sboot being off isn't the same as a bootloader unlock. So maybe if he can get that far there is a way for everyone to do it and the right hole just hasn't been found yet. I am very very proud of our devs and think if anyone can do it it will be someone on XDA. I am hoping for a bootloader unlock but I have to agree it does look a bit grim.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Walter.White:
Nah. It was actually [MENTION=766721]ryanbg[/MENTION] who achieved that secureboot:none status and it was his picture that he sent it to adam :) AFAIK adam doesn't even have note 3 :p (ppl where trying to crowd fund it but mods kept deleting those threads for one reason or another..so he actually never got N3 in his hand).

P.S. I'm just hoping that some dev has already cracked the bootloader but is waiting on S5 release before posting it. :fingers-crossed: [MENTION=2348906]designgears[/MENTION] already has the S5 firmware but hasn't posted it yet.

[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaiyanPride:
I have the Kindle 8.9 HD with the front-facing camera. I tried to flash CM 11, but now it's stuck at the bootscreen. It has the orange and white boot screen and a second later, a pixelated white bar pops up on the left, then it stays frozen until I shut it down. Windows doesn't seem to detect it at all, and I can't seem to get fastboot mode except for in Ubuntu using Soupkit. However, even if I do manage to get it into fastboot on Soupkit, SK says the device is offline afterwards even though the tablet displays fastboot on the screen.

It should be said and might be obvious, I'm not entirely sure what I'm doing. I spent a great deal of time reading into how to troubleshoot it myself. I do have previous experience with flashing roms on my Android phone, but that's about it.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
Once it is in fastboot, reboot into windows and use kindle fire first aid. As I recall soupkit wasn't meant for 2nd gen kindles, only the kf1, but I could be mistaken, I use Ubuntu and know what I'm doing so I don't use these kinda things. Windows should detect the device as a jem device, so download drivers in my signature, extract them somewhere and in the device manager right click the jem device, hit update drivers, and point it to where you extracted mine. Once that is done kindle fire first aid should be able to reflash it.

[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaiyanPride:
Just like that. It's working! Didn't realize SK wasn't for 8.9, so when it didn't work, I stopped and just assumed it was fastboot on the tablet that wasn't working. I guess thinking it was hard-bricked might have been a bit dramatic.

Thanks, man! You're a lifesaver. You know your ****.

Anker PU Leather Case for Google Nexus 5 Review

Received it couple days ago; here's my thoughts on it. I'll try to keep it concise.

Feel: According to the box, the leather is actually synthetic and not actual leather. It's a $8 case so expecting leather would be too much of an overkill anyway. I have to say, it feels premium. The grip is tactile and the phone does not slip from hands.

Protection: My biggest peeve is that the leather does not extend beyond the tpu frame. The right side of the case is exposed making the right side the most vulnerable to damage. However, there is a strap that will protect your phone from a drop. That is if your phone drops completely parallel to the floor. Otherwise, it's up to the tpu frame to cushion your Nexus from possible injury. The rest of the phone is enveloped by synthetic leather and should be impregnable to drops and bumps. I have dropped my Nexus from pocket height and no damage was taken.

Functionality: The functionality is superior to the rest of the cases. The open top allows any headphone jack (regardless of size) to be compatible with your phone. Also, if you're watching movies, the stand comes in handy. Beware of the magnet though. The case takes advantage of the hall sensor built into the Nexus. Basically, the hall sensor turns the screen on and off by the detection of a magnet. Often times, my phone turned off unintentionally because my phone got too close to the magnet.

Durability: Over the course of couple days, I noticed some glue coming off. It's not that big of a deal because it's excess glue that won't affect the binding of the case.

Overall, this is a solid choice for only $8. If you're looking for functionality, this is the case to get. Thanks for reading.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Anderson2:
Thank you very much.

I came across this one from LG that looks pretty solid. One of the reasons I ditched my iPhone was so I could have a cooler variety of accessories. Never going back after also realizing Android is awesome.

I've pretty much tried them all. You compromise on flips though in my dealings. I have tried the cruzerlites, too thick for me....the elegant rock, nice, but a tad too flimsy and no smart cover and "settled" on the Seidio Ledger flip case. What sold me was the

led cut out

. There's issues with the soft touch backing scuffing off at the corners, but Seidio will work with you in replacing it if you want.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Yaminashi:
Have they resolved this issue or is it still present?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] kpjimmy:
I want to say yes for the most part, because the same issue did not occur with the revised Ledger case they sent me. It went though the same usage as my three other ones and this one for the most part came out with flying colors. However, I do see some slight rubbing off on the bottom of the case, which I can deal with and if it becomes very unsightly, I can go back to Seidio and ask for a new one. I still love the case and still use it as my daily driver case. Not too sure what will happen when my replacement air dock charger comes back. The ledger does not work with that, unless the air dock guys remember to ship me my sticker to put on the back of the case to reinforce the magnets. The reason why the air dock doesn't work is because the soft touch is not glossy in any way and the "micro-suction" pad doesn't adhere. Sorry I digress....

I got the ledger and it has a led cutout for the notification. Also has a smart cover and a pocket to put my google wallet card in it...nah not really, but I could:laugh:

Anker PU Leather Case for Google Nexus 5 Follow Up

Following up, I don't see myself using this case on a daily basis. Don't get me wrong, I like this case but I prefer the bulky Ballistic case over the leather case. I did a few drop tests on softer ground to see what kind of arrangement the Anker will land in. In the midst of falling, the flap opens up occasionally, causing the face of the phone to be exposed to the floor. In terms of protection, I would not rate this case highly because of the magnet's incapability of clasping the covers together. If you're sure you won't ever drop your phone, go for it if you prefer leather cases.

For now, I'm sticking with the Ballistic SG Maxx. You never know what might happen.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] n1njaG:
Made a few quick snaps :)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Anderson2:
Can you clarify a point? The title says "clear back". Does that mean the part of the case that covers the back of the nexus 5 is transparent?

What is the rectangular cutout on the orange leather looking cover in your images? What is it for and is it on the front or back of the nexus?

How much protection does this case provide against accidental falls?

My wife has a red back nexus 5. What color case would work best with that?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] n1njaG:
Clear back means that it is transparent as it can be seen from the pictures.

I haven't dropped it yet and hope I would not drop it any time soon but I think it offers quite good falling protection.

It is not a cutout but a metal plate with brand logo and it is not on the back (can be seen from the picture).

Black would probably be nice with it.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Anderson2:
Thank you very much. That is helpful.

Is the like clear plastic back slippery? Easily scratch able?

Can the case fold completely back (180°) on itself or just open like a book?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] n1njaG:
It kind of feels slippery on touch (haven't noticed this until today) but when holding it in hand it feels really great and safe.

I think I had this case for about 2 months now and there is not a single scratch on it.

Absolutely. It folds back 180° easily, I just opened it up like a book for that picture so you see how it is on the inside.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] daLareid:
Thanks a lot, i was wondering because it looks too good on the site but judging from your snaps it looks as good as it does on the ebay site. I'm glad I made my purchase, just waiting for it to be delivered should be any day now.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] kpjimmy:
Well, if it wasn't for the Seidio Ledger case, which spoiled my view on flips, I'd say this is a good second, when it comes to thinness and looks. As for protection, it's ok. And one of the slimmest form factors out there for a flip IMO. Is a good case? Yes. Is it the best case out there? No IMO.

For most, it may past muster, but for me it was lacking something....I am not sure what, but it felt like it could have been a tad better like a nilken case/quality that I expected.

Will do:) I just checked and it should be coming next week, that's what I hate about purchasing stuff from China, takes a lot of time.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] danlo:
For those that have the Seidio ledger case, how do you deal with the inconsistency of the auto wake/off? I have a couple of cards in the cover and the flap works like 1 out of 20 tries. What's worse is that when there's pressure on the flap, the screen will sometimes turn on (since it comes in contact with the screen) and that kills my battery.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] kpjimmy:
Do you have a lot of play on your cover? Meaning the holes can misalign real easy or is your ledger have a stiff spine like a new book? I have had all iterations and my last one was stiff as can be. And I had no issues with the cover killing my batt. But I don't put cards in the pocket though.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] danlo:
Yea, the flap works fine if I don't have cards in the pocket. The flap actually comes in contact with the screen and the magnet works just fine. However to me it's kind of the point of the case to put something in the pocket.

its cheap and looks realy nice.. i wanted to know if the back is soft plastic
[Nexus 5 Accessories] gauthamnaidu:
The inner green thing is rubberized plastic it is durable.. But the cuts on the phone are a hit or miss.. I got one for my n4 and it was snug fit.. But in the n5 the ear phone opening is not coinciding with the phone.. So muffled when I have the flip closed.. The material feels premium..
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsgates:
Those of you using a "Smart Stay" app on your Nexus 5, which one are you using. This is the only feature from Galaxy S4 I miss (I kept all the other crap turned off on that phone). I noticed there's a few in the Play Store. What's everyone having the best luck with? I want my screen timeout set at 30 secs, but don't want the screen going off when I've looking at the display. Thanks for any suggestions.
