Widgets

I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 and I have lost the Add option on the screen menu. Also long press on the screen does not work.

Amazingly if I uninstall Holo and reinstall I regain the Add button, and quickly reinstall my widgets, but this option lasts

for 3 minutes. Then screen menu reverts back to Wallpapers Edit screens Manage apps Lock desktop. Etc but no Add button.

I am so sorry to inconvenience but I simply love this launcher, and have been using for 4 years. Please Please help. I am

not a nerd, so please reply in simple layman terms.

With much gratitude

Hello Friends,

is there any simple way to root Lenovo K900 as if we flash system.img which has been provided it erase all account information and i dont want to lose any information or any account from my phone.

before this i have used many android phone and for them rooting phone was very easy.

I would appreciate if anyone from you can provide simple way to root phone without flashing.
[Lenovo K900] karellang:
root

which ROM?
[Lenovo K900] mikey199:
Only way to obtain root is to download and flash a rom with it. X86 devices like this have a lot less security flaws than ARM devices so root can not be so easily obtained.
[Lenovo K900] headhouse:
I used Cydia Impactor. If your K900 is ROW ROM, you can root one-click.

Hey guys quick question. I think I am going to be trading my S3 in today to get the new HTC One on the EDGE program. My question is my S3 is rooted and running a custom ROM (CleanROM 8.1). Do I need to un-root and put stock ROM back onto the S3 when handing in the phone through the EDGE program? Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kittysomerville:
I'd love to see an answer to this question myself. I was going to do the same thing. The only difference is I have the stock ROM just rooted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:
To be on the safe side and not get a called later on by vzw. I suggest to Unroot and put stock image on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pettigrew95:
Thanks...If they did call you what would they say and would there be any repercussions? I didn't give them my S3, I had an old HTC Rhyme lying around (my girlfriends old phone) lol...It was rooted as well but stock ROM. I was to lazy to un-root it so I gave it to them rooted. I wonder what Verizon even does with phones traded in through EDGE?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:
Worse case give it back to you. Since i haven't read about edge cant tell u wat is ACCEPTABLE and wats not. Depending hows the quality of the fone they probably fix them recertified them. Resell as use or us as replacement wen ppl have a warranty claim.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Does VZW offer anything for the S3? If not and it's unlocked the dev community and a ton of members would love to get there hands on one

Hello

i want to create custom rom boot image .but how i solve this error:confused:

step 1:i go to advanced options

===========================================

Android Kitchen 0.194 - by dsixa <xda-developer.com>

===========================================

0 = ADVANCED OPTIONS

step 2: repack the boot.img

so i choose

20 = Tools for boot image (unpack/re-pack/etc.)

step 3:extract kernel and ramdisk

w = Extract kernel + ramdisk from boot.img

step 1 to 3 is very convenience but press W and

enter Extract kernel and ramdisk it show like this

Working folder found

Kernel found at offset 2048 in boot.img

Making folder BOOT-EXTRACTED

Extracting kernel...

Extracting ramdisk...

Error: NO ramdisk folder found!

Press Enter Continue

how i pass this step and how i make ramdisk folder:confused:

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peterhugelberg:
Hi,

i bought the game "Threes!" yesterday and it works fine when i use my finger to play but if i try to use the S Pen the Game does not recognize any input, it's like the S Pen digitizer is turned off.

Is there any way to fix this (besides hoping that the developer will fix it). Or does anyone know what the Problem might be, so that i could give the developer some hints as to what he has to change.

It just seems strange because this is the first app i encountered that does not work with the s pen.

edit: just tested if the gestures still work and they do so the digitizer seems to be on

I havent looked into Android programming and note 2 programming but it seems to me that you dont have to implement s pen support, if you would have to i think a whole lot more apps wouldnt support it.

So here's the thing. Today i tried installing Paranoid on my HTC HD2. And it's not the first time i am doing this. I also wanted to use that link2sd for more space for my apps and i decided to create the Ext4 before installing the Rom.....which didn't work out so i reformatted the SD back to FAT32 and went on with the installation. So using HD2 toolkit wipped Task 29 installed CLK and CWM recovery, copied over the zip file to SD card. Normally i pressed "install zip from sd card" and then "choose zip from sd card" and it says ??No files found??. Tried that a couple of times, reformated the sd, done the process all over again but it's all the same.

Sorry for that long story but i want to make clear of what's my problem and i would really be very greateful if somebody can help me with this thing.

P.S. First time i formatted the SD was with Minitool Partition Wizard.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisnewton:
Hi all

Just noticed on my nexus 5 if i use it for a while obviously the battery level goes down, but then if i look a bit later its gone back up!

for example i was on my lunch and used nexus for a while, checked battery it was on 61%, then an hour later i checked and it was on 63% ??

When i looked at the graph on the battery usuage it does show it going up.

Anyone else noticed this?

-Flowed from an IceCold Hammerhead!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdviper:
I think it's because of the weather instead. Going from cold to warm would in my theory make the battery percentage higher.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roydondsa:
What?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
It's an estimation and changes based on use. No voodoo magic or anything.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
This it periodically reads the voltage of the battery and estimates the rest
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] granets:
I think it does like rootSU said - it goes in, checks the voltage, and if you, at this moment are pushing your phone, the voltage is dropping, so it makes a prediction and you get a drop in % of battery. When you stop using your phone so heavy, the voltage raises a bit, because the battery is not so heavily used, the phone checks voltage, it's more than before, so you get a percent or two. I'd say it's not just a statistic, the battery, when heavily used, drops in voltage, but when you offload it, it recovers some ammount, witch means you gain some battery life. And if someone wants to know why it's like that, think of what happens when you plug in something with a high wattage use in your home - the lights dimm a little bit, because the bigger load, requires more power, meaning voltage and amps, so, the voltage drops. When you unplug it, voltage goes up. It's the same thing.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] bgilles1:
I have a sprint S4 SPH L720 that was running NAE that I rooted over the weekend with no issues. I added the odex service files for hotspot. I then installed TWRP but kept getting app stopped error when I tried to open it. Phone still worked fine until I downloaded google earth. Got the same error when I tried to open the app. Did a restart on the phone, came up with Android is updating apps, and then got an error that play has stopped. When I pressed ok or report, error returned, couldn't clear it. I booted into recovery and did factory reset. Now on boot I get past the yellow sprint screen then message Unfortunately SAE has stopped that won't clear.

Any advice before I f something else up?

thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] cruise350:
There is a know problem with manually installing the hotspot files instead of flashing the hotspot zip in TWRP. Your best option to fix this will probably be flashing the stock NAE tar in odin, re running cf autoroot to attain root again, installing TWRP with goomanager, and then flashing the hotspot mod with TWRP. This should get you up and running without the errors. You can try to just flash the hotspot mod again with twrp first.

I'm still rooted at this point even though I did a factory reset, right? Would it be any help to go back to the original odex files? I renamed them to .bak before I copied over the new ones. If that clears the SAE error I could then instll goomanager and TWRP then reflash the hotspot mod?

Forgive my noobness. I do appreciate the help.

[Xperia Z2 General] meyourchum:
Sony Xperia Z2 displaced the One (M8) at the Basemark OS II bench.

The two scored identical in the CPU and GPU test, but faster memory performance helped the Sony smartphone reach the top spot.

The Xperia Z2 is currently third in the gaming benchmark, but an update could push it forward – after all the M8 and Z2 use the same chipset and display resolution.

Source GSM Arena
[Xperia Z2 General] paddylaz:
I love the look of the back of the htc one (and m8) but its that bloody huge bottom bezel/htc logo area that for me is an eye-sore. It almost looks like it's got three bezels! I want a nice symmetrical front face to my phones, with thin side bezels. Hence my excitement at the z2, now that it's fixed the flaws of the z1. Barring any disasters rearing their heads when it gets reviewed, Sony is onto a winner here.
[Xperia Z2 General] MasK:
Well as far as benchmarks are concerned, I think the S5 might overtake them all as it's running at a slightly higher clockspeed of 2.5Ghz. Even the M8 Asian version is running at 2.5Ghz.

Having a higher battery.. it makes me wonder why Sony decided to go for 2.3Ghz instead. I feel it could be the cheaper batch of CPUs with low speed yields..
[Xperia Z2 General] g4rvd4:
Cheaper batch of CPUs? No, the processor in all the 3 phones is the same. (Snapdragon 801)

Being a computer engineer it is my opinion that the practical differences between the same processor clocked at 2.3 GHz and 2.5 GHz will be little to none. Sure, the benchmarks would show a slight difference but during actual use? Nopes. However, the extra 1 GB of RAM can make a fair amount of difference in practical usage especially if you run memory intensive apps and games.
[Xperia Z2 General] MasK:
Well, the chip binning is different, and that will constitute to different prices.

8974-AB vs 8974-AC. It's physically sold as a different part number.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snapdragon_(system_on_chip)

But sure.. in real life, the differences will be close to none. I'm thinking Sony added the extra 1GB RAM for 4K video and timeShift video.
[Xperia Z2 General] krabman:
IMO the hardware wars are coming to an end soon with cell phones and they will become appliances. This is generally considered to be the point where performance capabilities are no longer an issue and design, styling, and features become the selling points. The OEMs know it and outside of the ability to monetize proprietary software they are trying to capture buyers with it because the hardware itself wont be the thing they are selling in the not too distant future.

I have an N5, it has no lag and is completely fluid everywhere. Everything opens instantaneously unless it involves network connection speed. I do recognize there are people who game that will leverage further hardware advances but for me the future is already here, I don't care which processor the Z2 has because phones are flat getting kick ass on the upper end and I know it will make no difference as I click about the GUI.

If I'm not mistaken, you were asking for help on fixing your softbricked One after you flashed ARHD to it. You also asked a few weeks back about changing your CID to let you flash stuff not intended for the Verizon model.

Please, stop. You clearly don't know what you're doing. Take a break from flashing ROMs and browse the forums for info on the HTC flashing process and how the Verizon One differs from the international model.
