This doesn't really answer your question, and you probably know this, but there are certainly widgets or mini-apps or something that would let you put something on your home screen (or a different screen) to control those things.

Nova Launcher might make things easier

So this is not a complete solution, but it will get you closer to what you are looking for. The pre condition is that you have to be using Nova launcher or any other launcher that supports gestures. So in case of Nova, you change the swipe down gesture to "Expand Quick Settings". This way at least when you are on the home screen, you can quickly get to your settings by swiping down or whatever other gesture you use.

Hi all,

Sorry if this has been brought up before, if so, please link me and i'll study up.-- i assume this has, since it would be a common idea.

I have two ideas for apps, which I think could be incredibly useful, and google hasn't pulled up any exact matches. What is the strategy, or game plan, for an idea guy who comes up with a quality thought, but doesn't-by any means- have the necessary technical knowledge to make them happen?

Obviously, I could go through the long and arduous process of learning to code, but given my current career, free-time is at a premium, and spare time is all but nonexistent.

All advice is welcome. And yes, i realize the market for app ideas is probably flooded, which is why i'm seeking your advice. thanks to all who respond, and sorry if this is just more website clutter.

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PMikeP:
I've been thinking about this for a few days now. Then, today, xda posted an article on repartitioning the Xperia to gain some advantage. So it seems like a good time to pose this question for us HD+ owners.

This a "feasibility study" question. I'm not a developer. I can hardly hack my way though Mint, let alone the HD+. I'm asking if the following possible?

(If yes, maybe a nice developer will do it for us? :) )

Can we shrink and repartition the /factory partition in the HD+ (as they shrink partitions in the Xperia) and use the leftover space as /swap?

Background

I've been reading leapinlar's excellent treatises on the partition structure in the HD+ (see Item 16) and how the /factory partition, meant for automatic disaster recovery, doesn't do us much good if you've installed a custom ROM and a custom recovery. (See all of Item A12.)

Among other things, the /factory partition contains an image of the stock B&N ROM. Which will cause bootloops if triggered when you're running CM.

But, if I understand it correctly, the /factory partition isn't a total waste. It duplicates some important data from the /rom partition (devconf), which could come in handy IF you put the stock recovery back on in an attempt to fix your HD+. (Then it could rebuild the /rom partition if it had become corrupted.)

So, as it stands now, /factory is 448 MB that's mostly useless to us. Can't we put it to good use? Like /swap? Or direct zRAM to it?

Leapinlar has already created some repartitioning tools, as has the Xperia dev now. So I'm hoping a lot of the hard work has been done already.

Proposal

(I apologize in advance is my terminology isn't exactly correct.)

Is it possible to:

1) remove the factory.zip from the /factory partition and then shrink the partition to accommodate only the /rom backup files. (I'm thinking that all factory zips are the same size, so once the new smaller partition is calculated, it ought to be the same for everyone's HD+);

2) create a new partition from the left over space, calling it (new) partition #11;

3) format partition #11 as swap

4) easily tell CM 10 or CM 11 to use the /swap? I'm hoping this can be done with just a init.d script. (Maybe an fstab tweak too?)

5) Or perhaps dedicate #11 for zRAM, as a kernel developer has done with useless space in the Galaxy Tab 2. In essence, we'd have almost 1.5GB of RAM.

Feasible? Yes/No? I realize that dinking with partitions can damage my HD+. It's a risk I'm willing to take.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
I'm not going to get involved with this, I'm just going to add a warning. The partition structure for the HD/HD+ is different than the Nook Color and most other devices. The NC and other devices like SDs use DOS partitioning. The HD/HD+ is like the Nook Tablet that uses GPT partitioning. The two partitioning schemes are not compatible. So don't try to use my tools in the NC forum. If you want to know more about GPT partitioning on the Nook Tablet and get some tools, search the Nook Tablet forum.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PMikeP:
Good to know! Now we have more data than we had before.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PMikeP:
Looks like a lot of the work has been done already

So, I found this thread in the xda forums all about nook tablet partitions. They even talk about resizing! (Or at least, about making a different size /userdata partition.)

There is also this here about repartitioning Nook partitions.

Looks like parted would be easier for what I'm looking to do, shrink the /factory partition and create a new partition.

I read here that I can use a live Linux CD to mount the factory.img. From there, I presume I can delete the factory.zip and create a new image?

I'm not a linux geek, but I presume I need to be on a live Mint CD to use parted in ADB? (Update: Apparently I am to use the Android SDK for ADB in Windows. Downloaded already. Am climbing the steep learning curve.)
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PMikeP:
First half of Step 1, Done

Well, it took longer than it should have, but I made a new, smaller factory7.partition.img file. It's 1 MB.

I started by booting a Mint 16 Live CD.

Then I mounted the OEM factory partition image I made beforehand using the dd command, per leapinlar's instructions. (See his Item 16.)

sudo mount -o loop partition7.factory.img {some.folder}

That image contained 4 zips: factory,zip; fsck.zip; rombackup.zip; romrestore.zip.

Dummy me, I tried deleting the factory.zip inside the mounted image. It occurred to me later that that would be like trying to delete a file from a mounted CDROM's iso image. Can't be done.

So I copied the 4 zips to a new folder. Then I could deleted factory zip, which was 433.3 MB.

That left less than 1MB for the other 3 zips.

If there's an elegant way of modifying an .img and resaving it, I couldn't find it. (I spent a lot of time with mkfs.yaffs2. But this .img was not a yaffs.(Didn't pass a "sanity check" when I tried to mount the new .img I had made with mkfs.yaffs2.)

So I brute forced an imaging solution by copying the 3 copied zips to a 1MB ext4 partiton on a USB stick. (I made the partition with gparted and used chmod 777 to clear permissions in the partition.)

Then I made an image of the new 1MB partition using the dd command. In my case

sudo dd if=/dev/sdd2 of=new.partition7.factory.img

(I probably don't have the leading /'s right here. Am truly hacking my way through all this. I'm sure most of you could do this whole project in a few minutes.)

So now I have a shiny new 1MB custom factory image just wating to be used.

Update: I think I'll redo this, and leave 4 zips, in case the recovery mechanism is looking for a "factory.zip" I'll made a dummy file and archive it, calling it "factory.zip."

The next task is to get ADB working, delete the original large partition7 in the HD+, create a new 1MB partition7 in its place, and then restore my new image to partition 7 using the dd command in reverse.

After that, then to create partition11 out of the unallocated 432MB and format that as swap.

Update: It occurs to me that I will have to backup partitions 8, 9, and 10 with dd. Then I'll have to destroy them, recreate them in new locations, and then restore them. Fortunately, an xda developer has already written the instructions on how to do all this.

I see that CM 10 supports swapon, so I'm hoping it will be downhill after the partition work. I'm hoping CM will automagically find the new swap partition, once I enable swap.

If you know different, I'd appreciate hearing from you. Will using swap in this memory burn the memory out quickly?
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PMikeP:
Better yet, swap file instead of swap partition

So, I was thinking more about this idea and how I'd have to destroy and recreate p8, p9 and p10 to make a new swap partition at p11. Aside from that being a lot of work and more prone to errors with all those operations, a new p11 would never get TRIM'd by the OS.

So now the plan is to reduce /factory (p7) to 1MB and increase /system (p8) by 443 MB. Then I'll put a swap file in /system.

Only have to work on two partitions that way and /system gets TRIM'd. (Or at least Lagfix will trim it.)

Whatdaya think?

I suppose it's easy enough to put a swap file in /data to get a feel if there's any performance gain from swap in eMMC. Someone wanna show me the code to do this? (I've read about how to create a swap file. Not sure how to mount it at emmcblk10.) Never mind, Found it on xda! Am currently running 500MB swap on /data to see what it's like.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
I guess this is a dumb question, but if you can put a swap file in /system and /data, why can't you delete the factory.zip from /factory and put the swap there? Why create a new partition?
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PMikeP:
First, I'm abandoning my bright idea. Turns out that swap is slow (even on eMMC) and possibly destructive to the eMMC with all the writes. (Hmmm . . . I wonder how many writes /cache gets compared to a swap file? (IOW, would a swap file be any more destructive than cache is?))

There were 1 second pauses every now and then, presumably while swapping when I had a swap file mounted in /data. Even tho I could get more free memory with a swap file than with zRAM, zRAM is much faster. And since zRAM is supported by the OS, it's the path of least resistance for me.

But to answer your question, it's not a dumb question. I'm a dumb user.

First, I don't know how to mount the /swap on the /factory partition. Can it be done? I don't see /factory in root explorer when running. Whereas I can see /system and /data. (So, to use Windows talk, it seems like /factory is "hidden" when running the OS?) By the same token, I don't know if I can delete the factory.zip from /factory in situ. If it can be done, it probably requires ADB and fastboot (?). But I haven't learned about those yet. So I'd have to use my new image trick, from my post above, to "delete" factory.zip from /factory.

Second, even if I could mount a swap in /factory, I don't think I'd want to. (Although I agree it's be a lot easier (and less dangerous) than deleting and recreating partitions.) I don't think /factory gets TRIM' by the OS. And I presume I would want it TRIM'd every now and then or else the swap would get slower over time than it already is.

I notice that Lagfix offers to trim /system and /data (and /cache). But not /factory. As above, if /factory is not visible during operation of the OS, that would be one reason why Lagfix doesn't trim it.

Or it could simply be that Lagfix doesn't see the need to trim /factory. Since /factory is supposed to be static, there wouldn't be any reason for Lagfix (or CM) to trim it.

Whether /factory can be trimmed with the fstrim command while running, I don't know.

Anyway, my idea for swap wasn't such a good idea. So I've abandoned the idea.

It still bugs me, as an engineer who compulsively tries to optimize everything, to carry that wasted 443 MB around in /factory.

I don't think we need an extra 443 MB in /system or /data. (Or /cache.) But if we ever do, we know where to find it.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
/factory is not automatically mounted in stock or CM. So to get access to it you would need to mount it with a script command. And I would assume you need script commands to set up /swap so that should not be a problem. But /factory is formatted fat32 and /data and /system are ext4 so that might interfere too.

And manual trim commands can be run to trim the mounted /factory. You don't need the app lagfix to do it.

But I agree, I'm not really sure you gain anything with swap on this device.

Edit: as PMikeP pointed out to me in a PM, I was mistaken. /factory is ext4, not fat 32. Thanks for the correction. That should make it easier.

Loose fitting-replacement alternative?

Hey guys, I'm hoping someone here can help me with this problem. A few months back I tried to clean the headphone Jack on my s5 with a q-tip and one part of the inside gold piece bent outward, so I had to pry it back in with a paper clip so I'd be able to fit headphones in without the arm (or whatever piece it is) obstructing. Now, unless coincidental, my shure se215 headphones are fitting so loose that I can shake the phone hard enough to make the headphones fall out. And yes, I'm firmly pressing on to make sure it's all the way in and I've tried with a few different headphones.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
from your description, it's a fair bet that one of the connectors is bent out of shape. The earphone socket is a sealed unit and therefore unrepairable. The only option is to replace the entire assembly.

As for your idea to permanently fix the earphones to the device.....not really practical unless it's your intention to turn a working phone into a media player....

Too much functionality is lost by having the earphones plugged in all the time.....

I had this problem since I got my S5 over a year ago, I've even sent it off for repair and they found nothing wrong (a load of rubbish) I compare to my friends S5 which is a later batch and his is snug and no static. I believe the issue is the contacts inside are not tight so they are only lightly touching the headphone jack. I managed to completely fix the static issue however by getting a cotton bud and thinning the cotton tip down a little so it fits inside the slot, then dip or spray the tip with Isopropyl alcohol, jam it in the hole as far as it goes and twist it around hard ( you might need to bend the cotton bud in order to twist it as it will be tight. I do this once every few months and it completely prevents the static issue from happening.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
I can't stress highly enough that this is not a suitable repair method.

Speaking as someone who is more than familiar with electronics and components and circuitry, it is my informed opinion that this method has the potential to further damage the socket......The fact that so far in your case, this damage hasn't occurred is simply down to luck.

In that socket, there are 4 precision sprung contacts that do not react well to violent cleaning methods. 'Jamming' a cotton wool bud in the socket as far as it will go and twisting it around will (at some point) bend these contacts totally out of shape which will make the socket totally useless.....

Please don't do it, you WILL end up having to replace the socket.....
