It was just my mistake...could have waited a little longer, couldn't I? :D....patience has never been one of my virtues :)

Nonetheless everything's fine and I'm happy again...

I should also remain behind increasing my knowledge about android an it's components...just to know what I'm actually doing and what is possible with this system!

What would you recommend? Just read the forum or is there any source where I can read about that...just basics about the system itself...

Thanks once more and keep it up, really appreciate it!

Greetings Alex

For the past few weeks Google Now has given me weather updates and currency exchange rates for Christmas Island. Which would be great, but I'm in Ohio and have never been to Christmas Island in my life. The issue persists on multiple WiFi networks and 4G, even though GPS reports my location fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Oishikatta:
Are you using XPrivacy? I think the default for denying access to location in XPrivacy is to fake it to Christmas Island.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] StormConjurer:
That is EXACTLY what happened. I couldn't find Google on the app list so I just assumed it wasn't restricted. Wasn't aware you had to poke around to find system apps. Thank you very much!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ShadowDrake:
So not sure I'm going to have any luck with this but it's worth asking - maybe someone has done the same thing.

I tried to follow the following thread to make a cable that will start the phone into car mode:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1475272

I have a working OTG cable and a USB A-A. When I connect the cable to a charger and plug it into the phone I just get a notification that says "The USB host cable is plugged in. Unable to charge the device"

So I did a little more looking and people said to trigger car mode pins 4 and 5 must be connected. I hacked up a cable and jumped them together. Plugging in the hacked up cable gives the same notification - "The USB host cable is plugged in. Unable to charge the device"

So apparently my OTG cable is working as intended but doesn't launch car mode.

Does anyone know what the M7 uses to detect the car dock? I don't want the stock HTC car dock since it goes on the windshield and I want it clipped into a vent.

Edit: Looks like this may be in the source somewhere...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=820275

Anyone familiar with the kernel source able to help? I'm going to do my own searching but I'm hardly familiar with linux.

Edit 2: Found values for HTC One X. Just don't have resistors handy:

10kOhm triggers auto dock mode

68kOhm triggers desk dock mode (also, a 47kOhm triggers desk dock mode)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mcerk02:
I never had a desire to put my phone into car mode and maybe I am not sure what you are trying to accomplish, but couldn't you just use an app like trigger to program an NFC tag and place it on your car dock so when your phone is placed in the dock and touched the tag, BOOM, phone is in car mode.....then just touch the tag again when exiting car to exit car mode?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ShadowDrake:
That's what I'm leaning towards doing if this all fails. It would just be nice to use what I've already bought - and sliding the phone into the dock would automatically trigger this mode once it was plugged in and charging. An NFC tag would accomplish the same thing maybe.

Car dock mode will be nice since it'll toggle bluetooth on for me and start playing music automatically. It's in a nice location in the car for viewing and could be used as GPS without having to dig it out of my pocket.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ShadowDrake:
Bumping a reply up to this since I finally got around to putting some more time into this project...

10k ohm resistor puts the phone right into car dock mode and takes it out of car dock mode when unplugged. Exactly what I was looking for. 47-68k ohm likely triggers desk dock mode so I'll save that one for another day.

Just going to cut up a USB cable and throw the resistor between the two target pins and I'll have a working car dock cable. Happy hunting all.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] pieinthesky10:
Hi all,

So I have an S3 i9305 sitting around doing nothing. Thought I'd play with it. I had and older build of Miui running on it fine.

Decided to put on CM11, and that's when my issues started. The phone boots, but as soon as I get to any sort of setup screen I can touch anything on the screen. The physical buttons work fine, but the screen isnt.

I flashed a touch CWM and TWRP, both of which loaded fine by I couldnt touch anything.

I flashed back to stock kernel and stock rom

Kernel from - http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/development-i9305/recovery-odin-flashable-tar-t1971265

ROM from - http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/development-i9305/roms-updated-17-08-2013-pre-rooted-t1942150

Still unresponsive touch.

Anything else I can try before I write this off as bricked :(

Thanks!

So I tried some more flashes, no luck.

Took the phone to the local repair place, they told me the screen is broken. They attached a different temp screen and it worked. They attached my screen to a different phone and it didn't work.

Quoted me $189 to replace the screen :(

Dont think so... tired a few from the SamMobile site with no success. The setup screen shows up fine - but cannot continue with the setup as I cannot touch the screen.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] spiderman07:
so it is a hardware problem....not software - you can flash whatever you like...won't solve it...

if you like the phone consider repairing it...

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] gidam:
I am having the same problem.

Even after installing new firmware.

The phone boots, screen is working. But the touch is not responding... I also did a factory reset + wipe cache.

Before that it was on CyanogenMod (4.2.2) and the screen was working properly.

What else can I do TT ?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] gidam:
I changed the front panel.

And it is working perfectly well...

How can modification to the software affect the hardware and brake the digitizer/touch function ? :confused:
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] spiderman07:
via kernel man...kernel is the interface between software and hardware....

maybe a frequency or voltage got changed by kernel and something happened....no one can know for sure...
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] MaxPotatOh:
When wrong kernel is flashed, the touch sensor get disconnected and unrecongnised by the phone. Thats why the hardware is broken even though correct kernel is flashed afterwards. Best thing to do is replace the screen instead of trying over and over again.

Hope it helps

I use the Samsung GT 19305 LTE myself.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] serophia:
Do you have adb installed? If so boot into fast boot open command prompt and do adb reboot recovery. If it works you'll want to wipe cache and dalvik. If you don't got adb you can go to the "original android development" section and download MotoTool AIO and use that to boot into recovery and perform the necessary wipes.
[Moto X General] markdexter:
I've owned a moto x for 1 week now. When I got it, I immediately ignored the kit Kat update, tried using jelly bean for 2 days, I had good to above average battery life.

3rd day, I updated it to kit Kat, my battery life took a big hit!!

Yesterday I received a nexus 5 as a gift, I love it.

I performed an experiment with both phones, I wiped both in recovery (stock, both phones are completely stock) I wiped cache. I then took my SIM out of the moto x. Turned on, only Wi-Fi on both. Then installed the exact same apps on both phones.

Whole time I was doing this I was charging both of them.

One 100% hit both of them I unplugged then at same time and turned screen off, let them sit.

After 6 hrs of sitting, the nexus 5 was at 98% the moto x was at 89%!! That's LOCATION turned off on both. And on the motto x the active screen and hands free control.

I think the nexus is built for kit Kat, most phones have quad core nowadays, I'm thinking that kit Kat just runs better.

The battery life difference is a shocker to me, and fit that reason alone, I'm using the nexus 5 and selling my moto x.

If I could downgrade the moto x, I would for sure, but I need battery life.

EDIT...

I've just redone my test with the same results, I will post pics later.
[Moto X General] rebretz000:
You must have a bad moto x. I've let mine sit overnight multiple times and after about 8 hours my battery is still 100%. Three email accounts synced, Wi-Fi, location on.
[Moto X General] markdexter:
Either that or you have a really good moto x!!! I find it hard to believe after 8 hrs still at 100%!!

I understand this is a moto x thread and people will defend their phones, I think there is a lot of people experiencing this after updating to kit Kat.
[Moto X General] aviwdoowks:
Find out, in about phone, if dev option is on. Tap many times on build # to enable. Then be sure both phones are set to ART runtime!! You will need lots of time & battery.I think the x will do much better then.
[Moto X General] That Ain't Falco!!!:
No, I think you should get that checked out. I've yet to have mine die on me in less than a day with normal use. Usually is only at 40-50% when I go to bed, and uses almost no battery while idling overnight, I'm guessing due to the architecture. I'm not saying the moto is better than the nexus, just a shame to hear you're having a bad experience with yours. Good luck with it!
[Moto X General] Darth:
Screen shots from gsam would help see what's happening.

But, I had phenomenal battery life on my x.....til my wife got it. Lol avid facebook user....she lost a good chunk of battery life from it alone. Cause its still setup exactly how I had it....but she's always on facebook (pics constantly loading) and she uses the "phone" way more...another drain.

However.....standby time for me never got much lower that 1 percent per hour. My n5....0.4 per hour. I assume active and touchless must keep the x standby drop higher, or radio maybe? Something anyway. I stopped worrying, since overall the x got great battery life. ?

[Moto X General] The Tallest:
I took the KitKat update the day I got my phone on 3/7/2014 and the battery life is better than my old Nexus. I put the phone on charge at 1600 take it off around 2000 when I wake up at 600 and the phone is at 97%. By the time I get home from work at 1500 it's down to 60%. It'll go 24 hours on one charge easy but I charge it every 12, or so. Some days I'm on it all the time.

Then again, I do have an unlocked boot loader, I'm rooted and I've got Greenify hibernating most of the apps I don't constantly use.
[Moto X General] ghostt021:
With everything on, GPS,location, ect and on WiFi all Verizon bloat removed. At three months on kitkat I drop 3-4% average at ten hours off charge. Once I got 1% drop over 8 hours and another 2% also at 8 hours. So not knowing if your nexus is new but the more the X settle in the better it gets.

Eclipsed X
[Moto X General] markdexter:
Maybe so, I can't be waiting a couple of months for it to settle in.
[Moto X General] rebretz000:
I had another Moto X that didn't keep the chrge well. It would drop about 5% in hour after unplugging. So it happens. I didn't take into account about your stock. I have all the verizon crap removed and some unwanted moto apps. Very debloated on my set up.
[Moto X General] Funkym0nkey:
I have found the solution for power management wakelocks on Kitkat. Many of you might be seeing that Wakelock detector shows phone is staying awake for 40-50% of the times since kitkat update.

Most of these wakelocks are thanks to Power manager service and pm8921_chg wakelocks. After removing the phone from charger these wakelocks causes phone to stay awake when it shouldnt.

I think I have found a solution.

When your battery is 100% switch off the phone. Remove the charger. Let it go to blank screen and then power it back on. Now when phone boots without charger connected to it, use it normall and you will see the wakelocks are no longer keeping phone on for 40-50% of the time. It is back to normal 10-11% or lower depending on use and phone gives great battery life.

I am yet to do lot of testing or reading on this, but this is just an observation. Worth giving it a try.

I get high calenderbackupstorage wake up triggers. Almost 400 to 500

I had this problem in my other phone too.

I have turned off sync , but still the problem persists.

[Moto X General] theremix:
If you are having the same issues on 2 phones, then it must be one of the apps that you have on your phone. Use AppOps to see which apps are using calender and turn off them if not needed.
[Moto X General] markdexter:
This works!! Thanks buddy, it reminds me of an issue I had back in the froyo days!! Good find

What is this "phone" thing you speak of? Some kind of special app or some hidden feature built into the X? I'm not familiar with this concept. :)
[Moto X General] drago10029:
I had my first Moto x run 4.2.2 and battery life sucked. upgraded to Kit Kit and everything was awesome like everyone mentioned.

My 2nd Moto X and it had great battery on both 4.2.2 and 4.4. I've had 3 and all had weird issues. I do think Moto X has some quality control issues. I've closely examined the phones and there were little inconsistencies between the 3. Going to a Tmobile store even confirmed they are using really old outdated SIM cards.

All 3 of mine had Loss of signal bug and MMS bug. no matter what I did.

Some people have no issues at all :( don't know what to make of it.
[Xperia SP Themes and Apps] ParaSense.:
Pie controls are awesome and i recommend to use them because

You can use your phone in full screen

You can play games and use apps in full screen

You will avoid press home button accidentally while playing a game (happen to me many times) :mad:

You will love it (i did) :good:

Must install if you are a hardcore - pro gamer like me :cowboy:

On the following guide i will explain requirements, how to use, how to install required apps and how to disable stock navigation bar and enable pie controlls!

Requirements

1. Root

2. It works on both stock and CM based roms.

How to use

Touch the edge of the screen and swipe to inside of screen (not very fast)

You need 1-2 days to get familiar using it..

Xposed framework and GravityBox installation

1. Download Xposed installer apk from here and install it Xposed framework

2. Launch Xposed installer from your app drawer

3. Go to "Framework" section and press install/update

4. Reboot your phone

5. Do step 2 again

6. Go to "Download" section and search for GravityBox > download it > install it and press done

7. Go back (step 2)

8. Go to "Modules" section and tick GravityBox

9. Reboot your phone

Pie controlls installation

1. Launch GravityBox from your app drawer

2. Go to "Navigation bar tweaks" Set "Master switch" to ON and untick enable navigaton bar (disable it)

3. Go back and tap "Pie controls" then "Enable pie controls=Always"

4. Tick "Always show menu button"

5. "Trigger positions" is from which sides you want pie controlls to work (i use bottom and right because when phone is in landscape bottom of the phone is right (landscape games,camera etc))

6. "Trigger size" if you set it to high then pie controls will be enabled easier (i use and i recommend to use 6-7 px)

7. "Disable system info" (I recommend ticked)

8. "Disable navigation keys" is not working in some custom roms thats why i recommend step 2 to disable stock navigation bar

9. "Long press is what action" (better leave the default)

10. "Pie colors" if you want to change colors of pie controls

11. Reboot your phone after you done with you settings

Other things you can do with Gravity box

1. Use volume keys to skip track while screen is off

2. Change time - battery - wi fi - signal icons and colors

3. Change transparency for statusbar

4. Allow all rotations of screen

5. Add button to close all recent apps

6. Much more

NOTES

Playing with some options is dangerous in some roms..

Maybe you end up with bootloop

Always take backup of your phone rom/data

Some of the options work only on CyanogenMod based roms (like vibrate on call)

Most settings needs reboot but not all

This is my first guide so feel free to tell me if i forgos something ;)

Im not responsible for anything

I never faced any problem or bootloop playing with GravityBox with installed rom on my phone (Xperia Pureness)

If you end with bootloop you can still try this FIX before you restore your backup

Good luck!

Here are some photos of my lovely SP with pie controlls and status bar changes <3

GravityBox has awesome feature set, but it has many things incompatible with Xperia ROMs, eventually, if you tweak some options, you will start to have random crashes n reboots. So just be careful and dont enable options not really needed.
