[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fr3quency:
Why dont you just delete some system and priv-app apks? My CM11 from 210 mb goes down to 140mb when I delete all those things. Even SlimRom and PA went down to 130. Battery life is ok with me. 1 day with ak's kernel.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uchihakurtz:
Yeah it's rather small so it doesn't significantly affect my main ROM. I don't want just one day, it's normal getting a day of use using hellscore. I want to test if an Android smartphone can achieve 3-4 days of use like the days where Nokia 3100 was still around.

So unfortunately I couldn't test a full whole day since I had some stuff I need to do on my main ROM, so I only used it for 3-4 hours. Battery was kinda good though, it only drops 2-3% surfing the internet on WiFi for 30 minutes with low brightness.

It took 20% of battery with 1 hour of screen on time which consist of 20 minutes of music through speaker, 30 minutes on full browser (WiFi), 15 minutes on Opera Mini (EDGE), and took 10 pictures with the camera. But I don't think that's good enough.

I'll post my phone and kernel settings on the first post, any suggestion on reducing battery life please tell. I'll try using the Slimkat Lite ROM until the battery dies when I'm fully charged again and post the result here.

Hi there.

I have been trying to be slightly more clever than my mind is willing to allow at this time of night, and been trying to get my Sense 6 Mail APK to bypass the Exchange security policies by following instructions similar to those featured a bit farther down on this thread...

I'm getting closer (I think), but before I continue to mess around, I just thought I'd double check that nobody here has already achieved (or is working on) this?

Thanks,

Dan.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prince_jihad11:
Ok,, This is what happened

I was in stock 4.1.2 and installed Custom ROM,, since that I felt lost few of photos and videos. I didn't feel good with that Custom ROM so I installed back to stock 4.1.2 and automatically upgraded to 4.2.2. And since that I lost greater than before. I used many recovery software to recover my lost but I had nothing. I decided back to 4.1.2 but something worse happened,, 3/4 of my video and gallery disappear,, :crying::crying::crying:

Perhaps someone know what should I do or anyone had same experience like me?

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kiyani:
some idk about that but in my case I lost all of my data including all the movies i copied in my tab.. After checking sd card throughly using CWM recovery i managed to find out that every thing was there but flashing a new rom mounted a new partition kinda thingy lol old data was saved as SDcard/data but after the flash new data was saved as SDcard/0/data and i couldnt find any way to access the old data.. I had to format the sdcard completely using CWM to get back the space taken by my old data though...
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prince_jihad11:
Any one?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prince_jihad11:
Thanks for your reply.. so, there's no way to get our old data? I'm sure my data was not lost.. but hidden somewhere just like you said. Because my remain storage's memory was not increase (constant) since my data lost.. is it happen in tablet device only? Because I never face this case expect in tablet device
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kiyani:
You're welcome I'm always happy to help.. :) Well the problem is I couldn't find any way to recover the old data... so was forced to completely format my tab using CWM recovery to get back the space of almost 6 GB taken by my old data.. if you can somehow get back to the old partition then it might be possible to get it back but sadly i wasn't able to find anything on the net though.. BTW it didn't happened again though so far and yes you are right it only happened on my tab... I flashed new ROMs multiple times on HTC desire C and Samsung Galaxy Y DUOS but this never happened..
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andres1978:
Hi, it's my first post, and I need your help.

I have a Sony Xperia SP C5302, untouched Android 4.1.2 (12.0.A.2.254)

Last day I rebooted the device and it didn't turn on, and I haven't installed anything, just normal use. I tried several things and I could turn it on first with the reset hole on the back (10 seconds), then pressing volume down + power, and the device turned on ok. Later I realize the pc (with PC Companion) doesn't recognize the phone. It's the same pc I always use without issues, and with the original cable. Tried on a different pc, but it's the same, luckily I can charge the phone without problem.

Today I made the factory reset, and the only good thing I got is that now I don't need to do the 10 seconds on the back hole, but I must press volume down + power to turn it on, in fact if I just press power (and not volume down), it vibrates but it doesn't turn on, and it won't turn on again unless I do the 10 seconds on the back. The PC still doesn't recognize the phone.

If it helps, phone was rooted and I was using GravityBox for some tweaks, but it was like that for quite a long time, without any issue.

I'd really appreciate your help!
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] headache59:
In your position, I would consider this: (back up important data)

Flash full 254 afresh without rooting or recovery.

Test it. If it works, re-root and install whatever you had previously, and enjoy.

If not - send it to sony centre - probably hardware issues...
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andres1978:
Thank you for your help!

I thought the same, but then I realized there's no USB connection, so I can't flash the phone. Even worst, I have the 266 update pending, so I tried that over wifi, but i don't know with it says there was an error, the update never installs, I tried twice.

It's incredible, I had the phone for 4 months, and just like that, it's broken.

Again, thank you for your time, and if there is anything you think I can try, your welcome!
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain Sweatpants:
I had a similar problem my solution was to factory reset restore all the system apps I had removed basicly make it look like it had never been rooted then use the unroot and cleanup option in superSU and sent it to Sony who replaced it

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] juno106:
Hello guys

I'm from Europe,but I'm planning to get Samsung Galaxy NOTE 3 from USA.I have been reading a little bit on the forum on USA models.My friend can get me NOTE 3 from SPRINT carrier,for not much money..It has unlocked boot loader,not too late updates and I can use it here in Europe with European SIM card(I think). Other carriers have NOTE 3 (like VERIZON and AT&T) but with locked boot loader,and from I have read,VERIZON makes updates last on their phones....

Can you please tell me your personal experience with SPRINT'S version of NOTE 3,so I can decide whether to get it or look elsewhere?

And if you are asking why do I want to buy SAMSUNG NOTE 3 from USA and not from Europe,the answer is because I have someone over there ,who can get it much cheaper for me.

Is there a way to unlock the phone for free here on the forum and easily root it in some safe way?

And will it work on European frequencies including 3G and 4G ?

Thank you in advance
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] BHurst:
I'm pretty sure you can't just insert a European SIM card into it. It won't work. Can someone confirm this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Epix4G:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] juno106:
So then,maybe it is better to go with T-MOBILE's NOTE 3,instead of Sprint.If there is no possibility of unlocking the phone e.t.c..maybe then I will have problem with frequencies here in Europe as well....
[One (M8) General] CZ Eddie:
Those of you who bounced back and forth between the M8 and the S5. If you had the chance to compare the two in direct, BRIGHT sunlight (Texas, Arizona, etc)... could you compare which one was easier to read?

I know the S5 can hit a higher NIT level than the M8, but it's only in "bursts" from what I've read. And cannot maintain that level for a long time.
[One (M8) General] jmorales5922:
By far the M8. In my opinion, HTC one m7 was better in bright daylight as the S4 was, and the same case is with the M8 and the S5. I was amazed at the fact that with the M8 it almost didn't really make a difference that it was hit by direct sunlight. Quite impressive
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovestospooge:
I had a Jazz Ultratab tablet with ICS that had a JB style launcher update from the manufacturer (com.calsto.digitac.jellybean).

I like it this specific launcher better than any other launcher because its simple with the perfect customization.

However I cannot get it install on my Jelly Bean Tablet (Apex AP-GS918). It installs on my Pantech Burst ICS but stops when I add a widget.

I decompiled it with Android Multitool but cannot figure out how to port it to JB or fix the crashing on Burst ICS.

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Thanks in advance
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lgrootnoob:
You need to collect a logcat, a dmesg, and then try using strace for debugging.

Use the tool in my signature to perform a logcat collection when you are running the app on your jelly bean tablet, and perform what amkes the app crash. After that you can stop logcat collection and examine the logcat txt file.

the logcat collectio command is lgctnp

for strace just type strace.

you might also be missing libs, and the logcat should tell that. attach the created text file from the Work folder here.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] 450rider22:
First off I am on my dads cell phone plan and am not paying anything a month for it so I dont want to switch to t mobile but the att version has a locked bootloader so here I am. So for my first question, how hard is it to unlock one of these phones? Then once its unlocked, will it get worse service then the att version? Can this unlocked phone tether like the way a stock t mobile one can? Is there any other down side to getting an unlocked phone vs stock att other then the unlocked would have tmobile on it instead of att and root access right way. :) thanks for any help and if I posted this in the wrong thread, im sorry.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] prw94:
I'm looking for advice on the most stable custom or stock ROMs for an Evo 4G LTE. Note I'm not saying "best," I fully understand that "best" is subjective and in the eye of the beholder and there's no answer to this question. I'm saying "stable," as in everything works that's supposed to work, just like it's supposed to work, including the camera (which I know is an issue with some custom ROMs, but that's a non-negotiable thing for me, camera's got to work).

I got my Evo earlier this year, it's my first smartphone, and I love it. It's not new, but it's perfect for me, got a 64-gig card in it so it's got plenty of memory for all I want to do with it, and I'm looking to get a couple of years out of it. It's rooted, flashed to Page Plus and is running MeanBean 3.03. It came that way, I didn't do the modifications, but I think I've done sufficient homework to where I'm prepared to try to flash another ROM.

I love MeanBean, but it's based on 4.1.1 and as such is vulnerable to the Heartbleed bug. I'm not panicking at that, I don't use my phone for any financial transactions and am careful with what sites I access, I'm prepared to go as-is for a while, but I'm thinking at some point it probably would be wise to change.

Again, I'm more interested in stability than "newest with all the bells and whistles." And I'm particularly interested in something that's not likely to break my flash to Page Plus, although if I have to have that redone, so be it.

Thanks in advance for any assistance here.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] orangekid:
Greetings!

Unfortunately such "Best ROM" threads meet their demise quite readily.

It is a demonstrable fact that there is no "Best ROM" and that opinions differ like the spots on a giraffe, or the different barrels that Donkey Kong throws at you whilst attempting to climb ladders.

As such, please feel free to peruse the development forums and determine for yourself which ROM is best, or most stable, or earns the most bacon points.

Thanks!

Virtual Trackpad Mouse

Connect the Gear 2 / Gear 2 Neo to another device, ie Laptop, Car PC, etc, via bluetooth, so that you can use the watch as a mouse. You can map the home button to the left mouse key and long clicking the button for right mouse key.

I think the smart watch would be a great platform for a wearable mouse. ;)
[Samsung Gear 2] Pirateguybrush:
Interesting idea, not sure how practical that would be though. Why not just use a mouse?
[Samsung Gear 2] highlordkram:
I like the idea, and for a laptop it would be great, as I never carry a mouse with mine, as I use a thin laptop sleeve and not a larger case where you can carry other items in it.
[Samsung Gear 2] Ehallq:
I would like it and even to use it as a mouse pointer for my note :)

Lazy as hell but holding my note in left hand(same as gear) then holding my right hand on the wrist and swiping on gear with my fingers. That would be extremely comfortable!

Skickat från min GT-N7100 via Tapatalk
[Samsung Gear 2] Breach:
I am sure there would be several uses for it. Me personally, since I can now turn on my TV and control my Directv box with my watch, it would also be nice to control my music/video server, which uses my TV as a 60" display, from my watch when I want to play/pause a movie, select a new music track, etc.

I also know people with tablets or car pcs in their vehicles, it would be a great interface to control those as well.

It could also be used as a "mouse" for people doing simple laptop to screen presentations.

Saying "Why not just use a mouse?" is like saying, "Why buy a smart watch, why not just use your cellphone?" - I think the answer is clear, we are tech nuts who like shiny new toys and love to tinker around and find more uses for them. If the dev made this app, I'd use it daily.
[Samsung Gear 2] rEVOLVE:
What he said! One of the things I miss from my Pebble was using my watch to pause/unpause my XBMC (I have a gaming/HTPC connected to my 144" projector & screen). That's actually a thing that I would say the physical buttons on the Pebble would do better than the touchscreen, is that I expect it to be more reliable and easy to hit a physical button in the dark without having to look at the watch and focus enough to hit a small touch target. This is also something I noticed when working out and changing music tracks - I could do it without looking on m Pebble because of the buttons while the Gear forces me to slow my pace and focus on the screen so I can touch just the right spot for the music control UI. I often hit the wrong spot and invoke the wrong action with the Gear's small screen.

I use Unified Remote on my Android phone to control my HTPCs though and it's pretty handy. There's a mode of that app that does exactly what OP is asking for, which is give a virtual touchpad and keyboard that controls the PC. If those guys would just port a version to the watch, that would be awesome, although what could be accomplished in duplicating functionality in a much smaller form factor is questionable.

I've found this functionality useful in GMote when watching movies on a pc-connected tv. I'm not sure how much legs something like this would have on a smartwatch though.

Offline calendar and contacts

Sometimes it would be really nice to be able to access my calendar/appointments and contacts when offline (not connected to my phone).... ideal would be if appointment alarms go off and remind me even when not connected to a phone. The Gear 2 has plenty of processing power and storage to handle such apps.

This would essentially be an important step to for the Gear 2 to become independent of a phone (but the phone/calling functionality). A small organizer on my wrist so to speak.

Other suggestions: a password storage app (encrypted and protected and sync with PC: something like eWallet or "Safe in Cloud"), chess game, world clock with alarms,...

I am sure there are plenty of other ideas.

A laptop does but things like home theatre PCs don't. I can see it being handy for people with those kind of setups. Especially with stuff like the Steambox likely to make some inroads into front rooms this year. I wouldn't have much use for a mouse app myself but I can see a potential market for one if it's possible.
[Samsung Gear 2] haulman412:
GPS/location/navigation app.

We really need an app for navigation or location. Glympse is able to do it so why not make a navigation app even if you have to input then info on the phone first.

Also the keyboard app that was stated to be on gear 2 at launch still hasn't arrived. So a keyboard would be great. That way we could reply to texts, though I know that wouldn't be so simple.

Another would me a browser app. Sony sw2 has one. Would be nice to have.

I know is easier said than done but hey....

Also what's up with this shealth crap not working at all. I got an email from samsung support telling me it SHOULD work on my sprint note 3 and gave me four different troubleshooting processes to try and none worked. Told me to call but I do not get hom until 2am. This is one thing that should have worked from the start.

hey I thought of this first!! two weeks ago and yes it seems to be rather hard to find a way to implement this idea with a feture rich app. like Power point control for projector with VC(voice commands) and virtual trackpad with possible fleksy like key board or voice input. for not only PC.. but for HTPC . or mirroring or MHL connection for the phone its self. how great would it be to hook up(I have SGN3) via mhl 2.0 and jumping to the couch and contrilling a Virtual mouse with the Gear 2 swiping with 2 finger or something of the sort plus possiple use of voice to text dictation as an alternative to a tiny keyboard. it would gimickly exite even the most callus of Gadget Enthusiasts for at leasy 10 seconds (-;.

Simply program waypoints into phone and watch displays distance and bearing to next waypoint swipe sideways and it moves navigation to next waypoint swipe other direction it gives direcyions to previous waypoint add speed over the ground in knots and ill be a very happy bunny i frequently do yacht races that use 4 waypoints done in various orders to complete course now yes i could just look at my phone but it would be so much easier to be able to look at my wrist change the speed unit and it could be used by hikers aswell add a save my position function and you have the perfect app
