[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danno5150:
I decided to unroot my note 3 so i could update to kitkat. I used supersu to unroot and then went to accept the ota, it failed.i then did a factory reset but safestrap still showed up. My next step was to do another factory reset and now its stuck on the galaxy note 3 boot screen with the custom logo. I tried flashing the mj5 files to it and it passed but after factory reset and a wipe it still locks on the boot screen. Any help would be great.

If you can get into download mode (home + power + vol down) you can just follow the steps listed in this thread.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2559715

You will definitely need an external SD Card and will need to follow the instructions exactly. It works like a charm. Once you are done you will be back on MJ5 and can OTA update to KitKat or continue using MJ5.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wdkingery:
You don't have to have an SD card; you can hold volume up and go to recovery mode, go down to update via ADB, and sideload&install the .zip files instead of an SD. (I had to do this last night from a soft brick)
[Android Software Development] chrisstavrou:
As I found myself clicking by mistake certain areas of different apps or even being destructed by what is being displayed on that area (e.g: advertisements), I have created this app to help me in this matter.

The app provides the next functionality:

- Create a 'cover' for a running app (form specific, if app uses multiple forms then multiple covers may be required).

- The 'cover' can be customized in terms of size, position and image being displayed (select images from the build-in list or gallery).

- The 'cover' can optionally appear if connectivity is present.

- The 'cover' can optionally be 'protective' which means that the 'cover' blocks the user touch input to the background app (hardware keys are still operational).

Below are the basic steps to add a default cover which can be customized later:

1. Enable the 'Notification to add cover' within the CS AppCover app.

2. Load the app in question and view the form in question.

3. Select from the Notification Curtain 'Add' to add the default cover for the running app.

4. Pinch in/out with two fingers (anywhere on the screen) to increase the size of the cover to the pinch direction.

5. Pan left/right/up/down with one finger (anywhere on the screen) to move the cover.

6. Select from the Notification Curtain 'Save', to save the cover.

7. Use the CS AppCover app (accessed through the icon on the Notification Curtain) to customize the cover.

Notes:

- The cover is form specific so you may need to repeat steps above when the form changes.

- Notifications are shown which allow to disable, delete, resize/move the cover. The notifications can be disabled within the app if not needed anymore.

- Long press on a cover will toggle the transparency.

Permissions Explanation

---

- System tools

Be able to start at boot, display the covers.

hi folks,

when you compare specs between z2 and z1 except the ram, the gap is quite thin.

We know the currents difficulties so far for port the 4k recording to the z1, so my question is quite simple, could it be possible to drop from 4k to 2k ?

Not everybody can play 4k videos on his computer, but 2k you can, what do you think [MENTION=5491189]xperiaz2[/MENTION] ?

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] rahtrip:
Don't get me wrong I love my phone. But just had to quickly get this off my chest. Minor annoyances.

1. Only the international/developer version gets the HTC Silicone case for the M8 in box. Why not make that standard across all models? This is a beautiful case, my friend works for Verizon Wireless as an Engineer/IT and when we met up a couple of times around January-end to Feb I saw that he had this phone with him trying to test it in real life settings on their network. His case came with the phone in the box. I thought that the case fit well with the phone and the color scheme worked well also. I was praying and hoping that this was the case across US Carriers.

2. No free google drive space for US Carrier phones? Once again international/developer vs US Carrier bias. What gives HTC?

3. I'm fine with Carrier branding on the back, but why that Ugly crookedly placed Phone ID sticker on the back? I know you can take it off, but just include it in the box and leave it as an option to stick on it yourself or save it for warranty purposes.

4. I hope for once in the future Carrier IQ and Bloatware will be optional or taken out completely. This is where iOS and Apple excels in terms of regulating carrier bloatware on their phones. I know Carrier IQ will be on most phones and hard to track sometimes.

5. ATT please include the Sim card that comes with the phone in the shipped box and dont open my phone prior to shipping and put it in there for me. Now I know why the phone was scratched on the corners and by the Sim Door. SMH...

That is all, sorry had to vent. Lol...
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Z51:

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Z51:

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] crawlgsx:
My sim was also pre-installed when it came to me (Shipped direct from AT&T). No scratches/problems with my phone thought, I love it.

I also could care less about the case and Bloat etc... Easy enough to Root and install a ROM without it. Pretty used to this kind of thing by now, not worth fussing over.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Bammeh:
You can still get the Google Drive space. Just call them up.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] CraigP17:
I do not really feel your pain on any these. i dont need a silicone case. my sim was preinstalled but no sign of my box being opened, it was sealed. i was under the impression it was part of HTC process in packaging that they has the att sim card in them already. carrier iq who cares. you can get the extra drive space no matter what phone you have. and the sticker on the back? seriously. thats not branding. its not meant to stay on.

My phone came in perfect condition, but I bought a case for it which ended up scratching it. I would have loved to get this case with it, probably wouldn't be in the position I'm in. Bloatware will continue to be a problem, it's not going away.

AT&T Sucks.

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
1. My developer version did not come with a case...so this I think is not accurate

2. Developer build didnt accept email address for free space either,Carriers make that decision,they opt out of the offer...

3. Its just the IMEI?Serial stickers, when there was removable batteries they were under the batteries,I understand point but they have to put them on the phones.

4. AT&T and carrieriq/bloatware,wellllll that probably wont happen anytime soon although Ive had discussions with htc higher ups about it and its not htc,its att that insists on putting it on the phones....lol

5. I have both developer and att branded, the att did indeed come with a sim included and was unopened...Guess its just where you get them maybe

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] slapdaddy:
Waaaaa...they aren't good, but they aren't bad. I have heard a lot worse out there and a lot better. At least they have some bass to them.

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Blueoval24:
I completely agree, they are pretty terrible. Not sure if I had a bad batch but they were very distorted and crackling. Didn't even have them in more than 30 seconds bc I swapped them for the ones that came with my one x+.

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] P05TMAN:
I don't think they're absolute junk, but I have to agree, they are low quality. The ear buds that came with the M7 were pretty impressive, but I broke them. Now I'm using Beats Touring ear buds and love those, but they are pricey and I'm ever so protective of them, lol

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] gtg465x:
I can't deal with AT&T anything on my phone, so when I got my AT&T M8 a couple days ago ($360 for a sealed in box new 32GB on Craigslist... hell yeah), I immediately bootloader unlocked, s-offed, and did a complete conversion to an Unlocked / Developer Edition. Feels good to be getting OTAs directly from HTC now and having absolutely no AT&T junk in the ROM.

Before I did the conversion, I saw that AT&T has replaced HTC / Google's phone setup process with their own POS that was designed by a complete Android noob developer. The ****? I will NEVER buy an AT&T phone that doesn't have the ability to be converted to an unlocked version.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] kgbkny:
Did you use the nandroid conversion method, or is there another method of which I'm not aware? I'd love to convert my AT&T M8 to a developer edition.

Hi there, i had found out a way to change the camera save folder. here are the registry hacks. try it out.

1. First, set the camera settings to save the images to the Storage Card

2. Using a Registry Editor, go to HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\AppDefSettings\Image and change the SaveFolder string to your desired folder name. Ive change mine to - photos

3. Now when I take a snapshot, my images will be saved in \Storage Card\My Documents - photos folder

hope this will help those guys who really tired of having a lot of folders in the storage card directory. :D

first time attach 4 snopshot, sorry if the arrangement of the snapshot that i had taken is not in the sequence

"2. Using a Registry Editor, go to HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\AppDefSettings\Image and change the SaveFolder string to your desired folder name. Ive change mine to - photos "

sorry Don't really understand how to do the second part.

please help
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] christopherwoods:
Get a registry editor, such as PHM RegEdit, which allows you to modify your XDA's registry hive - this way, you can go and change configuration settings to how you like them (one of these configuration settings being the path to the folder which the camera app saves photos and videos in).

I discovered this hack myself about six months ago, but thought it was a pretty minor one so I didn't share it on here (couldn't be arsed to write out how I did it, for one thing! ;) lazy student, hehe)... It's really not that hard, so long as you follow the instructions and don't edit the wrong thing (I bricked my XDA once by ****ing about with the registry, but it was time for a hard reset anyway).
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] Andy R:
Have you found a way of stopping the camera application from saving the photos in a subfolder, named after today's date? The camera software on the Blue Angel device allows you to do this - i.e. to specify the "save" folder exactly. I'd be very interested if anyone has managed to do this.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] tckeda:
remove the directory "My Document" ?

Hi,

In wm5 , I try to change the default saving camera photo directory into \Storage Card\ , but it still provide me a directory \My Document\, like this-> \Storage Card\My Document\

The value of this registry will change back to \My Document\ whatever the value I modify after the exit of all program and reboot. So strange??

Which value of registry should I change? My aim is to change the directory of saving camera photo taken into like this \Storage Card\Pictures

because when I sync with pc, the windows media player will copy the files to \Storage Card\Pictures not a default \Storage Card\My Pictures\ (If I can set the sync directory, then it's great.)

Thanks a lot.

Jim
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] Fortiscue:
If you want photos NOT to go into the \Storage Card\My Documents\<whatever>, then you change the SaveFolder registry key to be "..\My Pictures". This will cause them to go into "Storage Card\My Pictures" instead of "Storage Card\My Documents\My Pictures".

Problem - Whenever I take out the phone from my pocket to receive an incoming phone call, The messaging templates from below get dragged up and a message template gets sent before I can even answer the call!

[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Seifer1975:
I am from Singapore and due to get my Z2 in 2 days time. I am very familiar with the rooting procedure for Samsung phones but this is my first Sony phone. I would like to root it but how can I tell that my bootloader is locked or not? Based on the instructions it seems we cannot install this without unlocking the bootloader, yet to unlock it we need root. Kinda like chasing the tail, isn't it?
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] JMonkeYJ:
All Z2s come with the bootloader locked, so yours will be locked.

The unlock and root procedure in the OP does NOT require root, so you can accomplish it as soon as you get your phone and have an unlocked, rooted phone. The warning is that you will not be able to do a TA backup (which is NOT necessary to complete the unlock and root procedure described) if you don't have root already, so you will lose your DRM keys which are needed for some special functions on the Z2. You may or may not care about the special functions.
