You cannot extend it with other functions. You can, however, purchase power toggle widgets/apps in the market - I use 'Extended Controls', which is very stable and customizable. If you don't want to spend any money then you can enable/disable the functionality by going to 'Settings' > 'Wireless & network settings > 'Tethering & portable hotspot and first setup your hotspot then turn it on/off by ticking the box next to 'Portable WiFi hotspot.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcollier:
This is exactly what the OP is trying to avoid having to do. You really shouldn't have to go through that many steps just to turn it on and off. As someone above pointed out, extended controls or another 3rd party, is probably your best bet until we get root.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J3ff:
I find it ridiculous that I pay extra to have the hotspot access and I can't have a switch (or even a short cut) on the home screen without downloading a third party app. Can't wait to root this thing!

I will grab extended controls, thanks for the heads up everyone.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] bob60626:
So my rooted phone has been vibrating recently for no reason. I googled it and came up with "power down, reboot to recovery, navigate with the buttons to wipe cache, then reboot".

I did that, selected yes to continue, and it's been doing this for a while. I'm ticked because I usually research everything pretty heavily and did not this time. What should I do now? How long might I expect this to take?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Sobaro:
you are in Download mode not recovery mode

to enter recovery press vol+ + home + power at the same time, when u see Samsung logo remove ur finger from power only and wait till recovery starts
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] bob60626:
Thank you! Can I do that here or do I need to get out of download first?

Heck, how do I just get back to regular operation? I need to research a lot more on this...

I've been searching for and learning about custom boot animations for my Sprint SG4. I'm running Sacs custom 4.4.2 rom, NAE. It's rather bewildering for a newb like me, but I think I've figured out how to actually display custom boot animations.

I came across this thread explaining how to create a custom boot animation in the qmg format:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/general/how-to-make-change-boot-shutdown-t2224639

So that seems straight forward enough. Should this work with the Sprint GS4?

Are there any good lists of boot animation collections? There are a number of custom animations out there but they seem to be scattered around. Is there a more comprehensive list somewhere?

If I understand the above thread correctly I should be able to take any custom animation I find and modify it to work as a qmg file.

Seems like something fun to waste my time on...:laugh:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] HPferoxCraft:
Here's some, there's a bunch out there.

Rom Toolbox has a bunch. Some are better than others. I'd be curious to see what you make.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] joelshort:
Thanks for the link. Does ROM Toolbox work with Samsung devices that use the qmg extension for boot animations?

In any event, I've found a flashable zip that enables the use of bootanimation.zip files for the boot animation instead of qmg. This way is much easier. The link in the OP is for creating custom boot animations using Samsung Theme Designer (qmg).

I think I'll post a tutorial sometime soon showing how to use bootanimation.zips on the S4 (instead of qmg). I spent the last several days searching, searching, searching for something that turned out to be surprisingly easy to do but the info just wasn't all together or concise.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] HPferoxCraft:
The boot ani creation thing I've had on the back burner for a long time. I keep getting distracted by other things. I don't know much about the qmg process yet, I just use roms/kernel combos that support custom anis. I have this evil dead gif animation of a crawling hand I'm dying to use as a boot animation so I should start reading up.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2-ton:
I am looking to buy a 7" touchscreen monitor for mounting in my car that I can use to control my android Droid 4 phone from.

Plan is that I plug my phone into the touchscreen monitor and use it like a car PC. I could then use the phones bluetooth to link up things like a keyboard, OBDLink MX (so I can use the android app for it to see veh performance). Sound can still run though my cars aux like it does right now with my phone or I can link it up another way. If i get this setup it would prob be the most plug and play and most useful car PC's ever.

Hopefully I could find a monitor that also has: GPS, Mic (for handsfree talk), internal battery. The monitor should also be 12v DC for easy wiring.

So can anyone help provide me with information on how to Vet monitors for use with android? I need to know what sort of features/touchscreen types the monitor would need in order to run my phone from it using the touchscreen. That way I can start effectively vetting monitors online and find the best ones to suit my needs.

I cant really get any further without reliable information about how to do this.

The droid 4 touchscreen specs are as follows:

Display	Type	TFT capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors

Size	540 x 960 pixels, 4.0 inches (~275 ppi pixel density)

Multitouch	Yes

(Ice Cream Sandwich)

Any help would be appreciated!

Also would I be able to buy a cheap tablet and run my phones display into it? if that tablet supported multitouch from the phone? that might be another way to get one that has a battery in it.

What do you guys think? anyone have any experience with this or good advice?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] ToeJullar:
I'm not sure if this is a known thing or not, but its just a little exploit I found out. When registering your 3 fingerprints tou have to swipe 8 times or so. You can register every finger and have room to spare with this method I found out. When registering prints swipe one finger 2 times then move onto a new one. Repeat until all fingers are used. Now you can un lock your phone using any finger.

Ex for registering.

FINGERPRINT 1: Swipe Thumb 2 times, Swipe Index Finger 2 times, Middle Finger 2 times, Ring Finger 2 times. (Not fully sure if you need to have it swiped 2 times or if 1 will work as well, 2 has seemed to work without flaws) Now you have 1 Print registered but in reality 4 have been registered.

Another quick tip is that you can swipe your thumb sideways, or at just the right angle, on the scanner so you can now unlock your phone with one hand. This is a bit tricky since you have to swipe your thumb in just the right spot.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] djconundrum:
Nice tip, you can also register your thumb and a few fingers in all directions for awesome accuracy
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] roadrunnrr:
I cant seem to get it to unlock one handed with my thumb kinda annoying
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] djconundrum:
Try swiping your thumb twice straight down and then angled 45 degrees then horizontal, it registers one handed much better after that. If not, do variations with the other three fingerprints and try it in all directions.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] AcE2DuCe:
S5 finger scanner

Just tried all my fingers with one scan, in one finger registration. Even scanned each finger once upside down.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] svxdriver:
Awesome tip! This helps a ton!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] andyistic:
From what I understand, there are only 10 copies of the registered fingerprints.

I was hoping we could do at least 3 different fingers, each at 3 angles (-45,0,45) on each of 3 sides of the screen (left,bottom,right).

Is this not the case?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] hkbladelawhk:

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manuedit:
This is a translated text :c. I speak spanish.

I got an Xperia C5302 SP (Stock Rom, no root, no unlocked bootloader, no recovery), not fully started because its battery was low and its firmware does not have offline charging mode.

The solution I found after 3 days. The key is flashing with flashtool firmware with support for offline charging. In my case C5302_12.1.A.0.266_1272-3116_R2B.ftf. Now, do the flash without battery load is not possible because a disconnection of Flashmode mode occurs during the process. The solution is to enter Flashmode mode with the battery disconnected from the phone:

(I was able to enter Flashmode mode by holding the Volume + button and Power, then connecting to the PC via USB. A green light will appear, sometimes goes, this does not create problems unless FlashTool show an error of disconnection).

This way you can flash the firmware completely. After flashing, you must connect the Xperia SP to the wall charger. If all goes well the charge offline icon should appears for a few seconds and then disappear and show a red light.

Leave the phone charging an hour. Then turn on and the system installation process is performed.

Eso es todo.

----

Remove the Cover Battery.

Remove the 10 screws.

Remove the back cover carefully (a connector remains attached to the cover).

...and remove battery connector.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nanostray:
How did you disconnect the battery from the phone? I thought we couldn't get the battery out
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrjraider:
If you remove the cover you'll see a very small yellow button that can be pressed with a paperclip or pen... If you hold this button for a few seconds it acts the same as a battery pull ;)
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manuedit:
You need to remove the connection to the battery permanently during the installation of the firmware.

Perform installation in Flashmode holding the OFF button does not give me good results because the connection was interrupted in the process.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrjraider:
Well when I get stuck in a bootloop I simply press the yellow button on the back to turn it off. After that I use the volume down and the cable to connect my phone to my computer in flashmode. Works always.

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manuedit:
That works only when you have enough battery or firmware with offline charging.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrjraider:
Yes but simply let the phone charge for a few hours the same will be possible....
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manuedit:
I leave it for 48 hours connected to the wall charger. Result: The start happening until the animated screen, then restarts indefinitely until losing the little load on the battery. (The Flashmode only allowed to use the phone about 60 seconds. Insufficient to load a firmware completely)

During power up the phone do not charge the battery while still connected to the charger.

Obviously offline charging mode is not activated because the firmware of the phone does not have this mode.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nanostray:
You could try the service center :P or in case you have a recovery and you can acces it in this small amount of time, maybe you can charge your phone from recovery
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manuedit:
That is true but is a shame that the phone does not bring a recovery in its stock rom.

Service center = place? To Make the warranty valid?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhnet:
So, the purpose of physically removing the battery is to allow flashing a whole ftf [highlight] when battery is almost zero charge[/highlight], is it? If having enough charge for ROM flashing, no need to do this I suppose. Just asking for clarification.. ;). Thanks for the tip though.

[Google Chromecast] Peelypeel:
Does anyone have an expereince of using the CC with a HDMI to VGA+3.5mm audio converter? Like this one http://r.ebay.com/vEHmdh

Mine will only do audio OR video, but not both. When a VGA cable is plugged in, I only get video. When I unplug the VGA from the adapter, I get the audio.

Any ideas? My CC isn't rootable, its been on the internet already.
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
I would return it as that sounds like a Defective unit.
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
It's either defective or poor-quality product. Chromecast works fine with my HDfury2, which costs significantly more than Chromecast (I don't necessarily recommend it unless you get one for cheap, I happened to have an extra), so I can definitely confirm it's possible.

Based on the description, it sounds like it's supposed to work, but Chromecast may not be providing enough power on the HDMI to power the converter. I have to use the optional power supply for my HDfury2 to work when connected to Chromecast.

So, if a replacement doesn't work, I would look for a converter that is self-powered rather than powered by HDMI.
[Google Chromecast] Peelypeel:
Thanks, that's enough evidence for me to just buy a new converter that comes with external power.
[Google Chromecast] mardukeme:
I bought this convertor from eBay and it works fine. Just took a few weeks to arrive.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/161157668457
[Google Chromecast] Peelypeel:
Yup, it was the external power issue. I ordered http://r.ebay.com/AYWZ8c (which is identical to my current converter, but has a micro usb in on it) and it worked straight away. I finally have a functioning Chromecast!

Both these devices are so far similar to each other. Almost in every aspect except screen size.
