[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] steve97ta:
So my phone rebooted today and when it did boot up all my Google apps were gone. Data and cell service still worked IMEI is intact. It cleared my internal sd though where I had some roms and nandroids. I tried to restore a nandroid from my external sd and it failed at the data stage. This is the 2nd time this has happened. I have odined back to stock and everything is fine. I did root again but kept stock recovery just in case it happens again. Anyone heard of this? Am I missing any steps?

When I odin to stock I factory reset in stock recovery 3 times and also twice in the settings on the actual phone. I then root it using CF auto root and install TWRP recovery. It was running fine for a few weeks and I flashed 4 or 5 roms in that time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] d12unk13astard:
Not had this happen to me ever on any t mobile rom, I know the international roms can wipe your internal when flashing them but I dunno why any rom would wipe your internal sdcard on a reboot. I keep all my roms, kernels, themes, etc on external sdcard tho just because I have more room there and just use internal for apps.

Which rom/kernel were you on when this happened?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] steve97ta:
Wicked, but I am currently running Infamous 3.5 with philz recovery. Day 2 so far so good. Weirdest thing I've experienced so far, I've odined to stock, wiped multiple times before rooting and installing Infamous.

[Moto X Themes and Apps] testuser0072:
I wanted to share my M lockring for Moto X lock screen. It look nice and makes our phones a bit unique (I know, they are without anyway ;) )

It's compatible with XT1052 version 161.44.16 UK retail, so if you have different version and don't want lose your lock screen functionality, don't flash it !!!

However it's working for me well, always do backup your version Keyguard.apk before flashing.

Of course I can make version compatible with any other stock ROM, but I need your original keyguard.apk which you can pull from your ROM guys (system/priv-app).

I hope that somebody like...

Below available versions at the moment (based on yours original keyguard.apk).
[Moto X Themes and Apps] Green78:
like it! but i'm on XT1052 161.44.16Retail en FR ..do you need my Keyguard.apk ?

How do you put the weather on lockscreen ?
[Moto X Themes and Apps] testuser0072:
Yes, send me PM with your keyguard.apk, later I made ring for FR ROM and publish here. About weather... Well, you can do it by any program which have that option, I use Chronus.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] Green78:
sorry i think it was from stock app's.

Where is the keyguard.apk ?
[Moto X Themes and Apps] testuser0072:
you should find it in system/priv-app/
[Moto X Themes and Apps] barabba85:

[Moto X Themes and Apps] cpetersen2791:
If i send you keyguard.apk, will this work on XT1058 (165.44.1 ATT)?
[Moto X Themes and Apps] testuser0072:
Yes, why not, it is very small modification and theoretically should work on any variant. I just need original apk and your system version, so I can publish here for others with the same version.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] TCPDump:
Any idea if this could be done on CM11?
[Moto X Themes and Apps] testuser0072:
It should work, however as you know CM is updated very often, so you must flash this zip after every update and of course it should work until they don't change significantly keyguard.apk. Anyway try on latest nightly and let us know if it work...
[Moto X Themes and Apps] TCPDump:
Looks great, thanks!
[Moto X Themes and Apps] herny66:
OK! work fine on xt1052 en.GB retail

The version now is 212.44.21.ghost_row.Retail.en.US. Should you need me to extract the keyguard.apk, tell me, thanks!
[Moto X Themes and Apps] testuser0072:
Do backup and check yourself... If not, just share your keyguard.apk, I can modify it for new 4.4.3 version.

What is the difference in this and using Zipthemer?
[Moto X Themes and Apps] testuser0072:

[Moto X Themes and Apps] testuser0072:
I think that my idea is OK - simply replace default lockring, nothing more... If people need install additional software then I don't mind [emoji6]
[Moto X Themes and Apps] testuser0072:
First post updated - Added MLockring for latest 4.4.4 GB Retail update.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] PiousInquisitor:
Why not use vrTheme? No additional software needed. No apktool, nada. Put your images in the zip and you are done. A single zip will work on all variants of the X. There is a good tutorial on youtube. The video is called 'How to Use a vrTheme for Andoid 4.4'.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] testuser0072:
Why you ask, when answer is above ? Want to advertise this program here ? Just much faster way is flashing zip and that's it, nothing more man. As I said, if anybody want study tutorials or spend more time for learning "how to..." I don't mind.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] PiousInquisitor:
vrTheme is not the same as ZipThemer, which is why I suggested it. Its much easier and faster than ZipThemer AND decompiling and recompiling an app. In fact you are limiting the use of your "mod" by making individual apks. You are also limiting what mods your users can use.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] testuser0072:
I just made this simple modification for anybody who need and don't want use any third party tools.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] PiousInquisitor:
No tool is needed. You don't need apktool either. You need a vrTheme zip and the image you replace in the apk. The vrTheme zip flashes like a normal zip. It also makes a flashable zip to return the app to stock if the user wants.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] testuser0072:
OK, however you always can open new thread with this tool.

[Moto X Themes and Apps] flasherruts:
thanks for this mod. It is a bit confusing for me to find out which mod suits or rather is compatible with mine. I own a XT1052 ( AsiaRetail ) Can you please point out which one is for my variant ? Sorry for my ignorance ( pls help me I really want this mod ) also , is backing up by twrp the only option to return to the old lock ring ?

please help me and thanks a lot
[Moto X Themes and Apps] testuser0072:
For MLock in Active Display, you need modify Aon.apk, I can do it, but at the moment don't have Motorola logo scaled properly which is required for replace. When I find some more time, maybe I'll do it.

So far no compatible mods for your rom, but I can make it, just send/share me your original keyguard.apk and tell what is your system version exactly (check in about).

About backup...Yes, in KitKat best way is do it via TWRP however if you extract and send me original keyguard.apk, I can make emergency zip with this apk, so you can flash it when you want return to original lock ring.

[Moto X Themes and Apps] testuser0072:
Patricio...which file you tried install directly ? I made zip package for install via custom recovery like TWRP, so your phone must have unlocked bootloader of course. Also root is required and as you can read at the beginning, always do backup your original keyguard.apk.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] PatricioJP:
Uff, gracias !!, es un alibio, como extraje el apk de manera directa, quise hacerlo del mismo modo lo del archivo modificado, y susedio lo peor jajaja.

Días antes desbloquee el bootloader y me hice usuarios root, gracias por responder y dedicar tiempo en mi.

Perdón por mi idioma, estoy escribiendo mediante el teléfono.

Uff, thanks !! It is reassuring, as I extracted the apk directly, wanted to do it the same way as the modified file, and susedio worst lol.

Days before unlock the bootloader and root users did me, and thank you for taking time to answer me.

Using your M logo icon I modded the Aon.apk. the unlock icon I can get scaled different sizes. The lock icon that's under the clock numbers (the one that shows when you take your phone out), stays impossibly small no matter what I scale the image to. Still working on it.

Yeah it seems there's some redundancy in it that's keeping the clock from changing. I haven't had a chance to dig any farther into the ic_lock.png not being able to be made bigger when the app is actually working.

My phone has recently started having charger issues. When I'm able to get it to charge it will fully charge the battery, but sometimes it will actually decrease in charge when on the charger. Just last night I had it on the charger while the phone was off and it was showing 100% charge but when I turned it on it actually only had a 2% charge.

I brought it to ATT today and they said it was the charger port by looking at the pin. I'm not fully convinced since I compared it to my friends s3 and it looks exactly the same.

Would anyone have any idea on what the problem might be?
[Galaxy S 5 General] a_k_gano:
Hi All,

I have my G900F handset for some days by now and I thought it would be good to share my view about it.

About me, I am a heavy mobile user. my recent handsets in sequence are as follows... SonyEricsson Arc s, Samsung Note 1, HTC sensation, Sony Acro S, HTC one X+, and finally Samsung Galaxy S5 G900F.

Design:

- The device looks normal, nothing fancy (pass)

- The used materials don't really look expensive, it is a plastic handset (negative)

- The battery cover cracks some times if I try to squeeze the phone (negative)

- It's light, thin, and comfortable to hold/use (positive)

Performance:

- Doesn't really feel that I am using a 2.5 quad core processed phone except when I run games. (negative)

- RAM usage doesn't make sense, it is more than what I expected. (negative)

- Still it is quite fast but it would be faster (I feel that my previous HTC One X+ is faster). (pass)

- Battery performance is really good, and it gets charged really quick. (positive)

Screen:

- Screen brightness is amazing (positive)

- Picture quality is really good in general (positive)

- Touch screen is very responsive (positive)

Sensors:

- auto brightness response is really disappointing (negative - used Lux application which makes it much better).

- response of proximity sensor of HTC One X+ was faster, but still not bad in S5 (pass)

- disappointing experience with the proximity sensor when using S View cover (negative).

User interface:

- HTC sense was better and more friendly (pass)

Sound quality:

- people hear me well but can be better (pass).

- I hear people loud, but not Crystal clear (pass)

- loud speaker quality is above average but not amazing (pass).

Hope it helps.

Thanks,

All of a sudden, everyone is an expert* critic * reviewer*

*delete as appropriate
[Galaxy S 5 General] inexcf:
You are giving 2 different ratings for the same thing? Also i dont know, its blazing fast for me. Seems to m that when someone complains about the speed of the S5 they mean how the UI feels. Try disabling Animations.

And here i dont think you know what you are talking about. High RAM usage is in no way bad. You want as much data stored in the RAM as possible for quick access.
[Galaxy S 5 General] a_k_gano:
I was comparing between both before buying. My reasons were related to the technical specs some how... and to have some change since my last mobile was htc.

too late now.. money is spent:)
[Galaxy S 5 General] a_k_gano:
Yes, i am talking about how the ui feels.

the ram usage means the ui and the running applications are consuming alot. Yes, the main function of ram is to keep but the main function of the ui and the apps is not to exhaust the ram
[Galaxy S 5 General] a_k_gano:
What an addition :p
[Galaxy S 5 General] Tomo1971:
Well it's not as if you've owned a lot of high end phones to compare with is it?
[Galaxy S 5 General] a_k_gano:
No worries... this is my experience based on what i expected and what i found.

the comparison is based on comparing with my previous handset, and what i expected.

Anyway, I have it now and will have to enjoy it :)
[Galaxy S 5 General] a_k_gano:
not exactly two rates... one is a comparison and the other one is a general experience
[Galaxy S 5 General] Tomo1971:
You say about the casing creaking when you squeeze it... Has the s5 got a built in juice maker? Why on earth do you need to squeeze it?

Of course the good thing about been mainly plastic is that plastic is more plyable.... I had a z2 last week and within 3 days of ownership the glass back had cracked. I suspect due to the heat from the camera... But if it was a knock it was something that would never of damaged the s5 due to been a plastic plyable frame.

For every negative one sees, another sees it as a positive.
[Galaxy S 5 General] inexcf:
Dont use TouchWiz. In fact for some reasons most Samsung apps seem a tiny bit slower than others dont know why. One thing that is a bit annoying is the home button. Open something and close it with the back button and then do the same thing but close it with the home button. The homebutton takes significantly longer, because its waiting to decide if it is a short press or if it should wait to launch the long press action. There should be a way to change that though. And try disabling the Animations or at least make them shorter. When people talk about the M8 having a smoother AI and they talk about lag on the S5 it seems like the Animation speed on the S5 is longer which makes it feel like it lags in comparison.

And considering the RAM:

Having as much as possible loaded in the RAM just is a good thing. Free RAM is just a waste. And looking at the RAM usage of each app there doesnt seem to be anything that exhaust the RAM. After a cold boot my RAM is filled about 60% and with almost every App already loaded to the memory. As long as there arent different apps that need to run and exceed the 2GB limit at the same time you wont notice anything. RAM full and you start a new app? An old process gets killed or suspended and you will only notice that the RAM was exhausted when you do extreme multitasking and constantly switch back to suspended apps.
[Galaxy S 5 General] a_k_gano:
Ok
[Galaxy S 5 General] a_k_gano:
thanks tomo
[Galaxy S 5 General] ShadowLea:
Ditch touchwiz and replace it with Apex or Nova. Quicker and uses about 550MB less RAM. Also, turn off all the animations in developer settings.

If you *really* cared about specs, you should've gone for the Note 3 (Which is much better) or waited for the S5 Prime.
[Galaxy S 5 General] Airax:
I like that line. Almost sounds like a sport.

-Airax
[Galaxy S 5 General] drakester09:
There's a huge thread debating this... *much* better is very subjective.

Both have their advantages and disadvantages. I found the S5 Touchwiz a marked improvement thanks to less bloat and much cleaner aesthetics. Camera is much better, screen is better (more advanced version of AMOLED) and battery is equal or better.

Plus for me the choice was between the Exynos variants and the Note 3 is at a huge disadvantage due to the S5 having global task scheduling and a much better audio chip (Wolfson), I had the S2 and swore I'd never buy another phone with a Yamaha DAC.

Memory is the largest advantage of the N3, S Pen and screen size (depends on personal taste), which kinda makes this whole thing a zero-sum depending on who you ask..
[Galaxy S 5 General] a_k_gano:
For me I didn't consider the Note 3 as the big screen reflects into a big size. The Note 3 size for me is not comfortable to use in hand.
[Galaxy S 5 General] a_k_gano:
Also, did anyone face problems with the S-view cover... and how about the auto brightness response...

So my m8 was working great streaming to my car and while I was pairing a loaner car I accidentally deleted my real car. I didn't think it would be a big deal but man it's been rough. I get the car searching for my phone, click the scan button on the phone and the car shows up. The second I click it to start the pairing the car says pairing failed and the phone says the PIN number was incorrect. It's like the phone still has configuration data it's trying to use.

Any ideas? I haven't rooted yet and I would like to avoid doing a factory reset.
