Well, nfc is Near Field Communication. Unlocking your device with this technique just looks much more awesome. Just buy some nfc tags and configure to use them, swipe your phone over them and your phone wakes up!

Just search nfc unlocker or similar on google play store and the app would guide you for the next steps.

In my device, i have some special mods available which would turn the phone on when a configured tag is swiped even when the screen is off. Just search something similar, As your device is new in the market, you will have to wait till some serious development starts on for your device (custom kernels and ROMs available though)....

But I still don't get the harm not using your power button..... It won't wear off trust me :D

Hey can you help me with one more thing? How do I root my HTC one version 4.4.2? I searched everywhere but couldn't do it, it would give error
[General Questions and Answers] backb0ne5p1d0r:
Well I don't know there are many apps for that! Just type it in the store and you'll find many.

And if you want to root your phone the first thing you need to do is unlock your bootloader. Have you unlocked your bootloader?

Oh but remember, rooting voids your warranty!

Is there any way to unlock boot loader without using a laptop?
[General Questions and Answers] backb0ne5p1d0r:
Hmmm.. I don't think so.

Well you can use another rooted android phone. But you'd need an OTG Cable and a Micro USB Cable. And that other android phone must support OTG too.

So never mind, using a computer is much easier.

Hey! I found a really cool app named 'Gravity' which used the proximity sensor to wake your device when you take it out of you pocket or pick it up from a table. And it is capable of doing the reverse too (locking). It doesn't leeches battery (even doesn't shows in the stats) and does not require any root access. Just install and your ready to rock!

So a couple hours ago Instagram had a server crash where it could not reload new photos on the news feed. After, my phone displays posts that are 5 days old on the top of the newsfeed. Same as on my Nexus 7 tablet. Also, in the my likes area, it only shows photos that I liked 5 days ago, when I clearly liked some today. Anyone else want to confirm?

[General Questions and Answers] bmg002:
I am trying to figure out how to get the title of the currently playing track from the shell.

The reason I am doing this is I am working on some "quick and dirty" keyboard shortcuts to do stuff on my phone. For example, I have a hotkey to play, pause, next track, volume + and volume - all from my keyboard and wanted a way to get the currently playing track from my keyboard, but I have yet to find a nice way to do this.

To do the above steps, it is specific to how my phone is set up (it uses "input tap" and "input swipe"). So my scripts will not be useful to anybody who doesn't have their phone set up exactly like mine, but I am willing to give advice to any other users who want to poke at this sort of thing.

The below steps can be done on any rooted phone. But is restricted to the apollo media player. I would like to find a way to either make it universal (which is unlikely) or find a media player I can do this with (be it apollo or something else).

I use Apollo for the media player and have used its /data/data/*apollo/databases/albumhistory.db file and sqlite3 to get the album and artist that is currently playing (by grabbing the row where oid = max(oid)), but this database does not contain the name of the track currently being played.

If this is easier with a different media player, I am more than willing to switch.

Any tips?

EDIT: Solved. run:

basename "$(ls -l /proc/$(pidof mediaserver)/fd | sort -g -k 9 | grep -m 1 mp3)" .mp3

as root.

I've got a Samsung S2 (I777) on AT&T and I cannot receive MMS messages. I've tried many different APN settings including the defaults on OmniRom but have not found one that works. I'm wondering if anyone thought I should do a reset of the phone to fix the issue.

Hey everyone,

can someone be kind enough to tell me if they is a software that can put the Qtek 9000 in safe mode.

What I would like to do is like Windows XP if I install a software and then soft rest my pda and it well not restart I would like the software to launch on soft rest to ask me if I would like to boot up normally or in safe mode.

I do not may if the software is a shareware I'm willing to purchase the software as long it can do what I've said above.

Please Help.

Thank You

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] PReDiToR:
I did see some software like this, but isn't it easier to do a backup before installing anything, then restoring if things go wrong?

Leaving DLLs and registry entries when you uninstall manually is something that all versions of Windows have suffered from over the years, WM5 is no exception.

What happens if the device won't even boot into safe mode?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gigino:
Hey Preditor,

thank you for you reply I've tryed all types of backup software but I'm afraid to say that everytime I backup my pda and then I try to restore I always get an error and then the pda runs really bad, so I have to hgard rest.

I've use sprite, Sunnysoft I've run out of ideas.

When I was using my old Xda pda I had no problem with the back up but since using WM5 I've had untold problems.

I would try any another software or adviuce that someone could give.

Thank you

Gigino
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] hanmin:
Me myself second what PReDiToR suggested.

There is the software that allows you to be in safe more. However, I'm not sure how it works. Does it disable your startup folder and or disable all the DLL in your windows folder. Sometimes, the software you've installed might get entangled too much witn the OS that it may not be able to uninstall itself. And, as PReDiToR mentioned, it will slowly eats up your storage space with untold number of DLLs.

From what you said about the backups, I think you've done the restoring wrongly. With backups, you should hardreset your unit and then restore it with your backup. It will guarantee a (almost) clean installation. I myself use the Sunnysoft version, but the SPB seems to be the most popular one. Anyway, both of these offer the ability to store your backup as an EXE file, which you just need to execute this file (e.g. after hardreset) to have all your stuff back, including the backup software.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] koesper:
SPB Pocketplus has some limited safe-mode functions, so that might be helpfull.

What it does is when the device is soft-reset twice within 20 seconds (or so) it asks you to go into safe mode, if you do, then all today-plugins and lots of automatic-startup things are disabled. this way you have the chance to remove whatever piece of software made you reboot the device anyway.

It saved my butt a couple of times, but don't expect miracles.

Yellow Spot no garantee??

Same here,

Yellow spots in the middle after a few minutes use. The spot gets bigger after intensive use and there is a small faint yellow line going from the spot to the bottom of the phone.

Went back to the shop with it, waited 4 weeks just to learn that LG does NOT think this is a fault of theirs so no garantee!!! My vendor is contacting them to find out what exactly makes them think this a is not a production flaw.

I'm gonna try and send it back to them anyway. This time i'll say its an overheating cpu in the description.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inedev:
Hwy guys, FYI, we've established in another forum that it's the glue from (probably) only the first batch. Since then (probably) LG has started using better glue for the screen and thus no yellow spots. When it gets warm it gets yellower, when cold, it's back to uncolored.

LG G3 yellow spots

I have a new LG G3.

I recently noticed a yellow streak parallel with the shorter power connection side of the phone, quite visible when the background color is supposed to be white. If it's a glue issue, they've not upgraded the glue to prevent the problem.

I now do believe that it's an issue when the phone gets fairly warm. After coming into a cool air conditioned office and waiting a few minutes, the streak goes away (if I'm not constantly using the phone). You'd think they'd figure out how to avoid the problem. Someone's not doing enough homework, or they just don't consider the issue that important.

Temp Solution:

Try this out guys put your phone in the freezer (yes that cold box in your kitchen) for a good 5-10 minutes while its ON.

Pull it out and leave it alone as it adapts back to normal temps. Open up a white background / app like gmail and you will see the yellow marks will be diminished.

I say this is a temporary solution because It might go back to the dark yellow caused by the adhesive paste under the glass screen.

This is the cheapest fix without having to replace the screen. glass.
