I bought a Pebble. Regardless of whether the U8 has voice input or not if I can't see the face they it's useless to me. And outside that is the case. If that doesn't matter then I'd be willing to sell you mine for a cheaper price than you'll get on line. Wore it a total of 2 days.
[Other SmartWatches] Artimis:
Thanks but I'll pass. I'm going to stick with my MotoActv for now unless I can pick up a cheap Galaxy Gear or either the LG G-watch or Moto360 convinces me when released.

LOL good choice! The longer I have my Pebble the better I like it.

Just got mine today

Hey Roger,

Been following another thread ("Elegance U8") and now this one since ordering mine off Ebay a week ago. Got it in the mail today, and I can see your points for both pro and con.

Here are my questions, if anyone knows. (yet)

I remember seeing what the actual phone OS is called somewhere, but can't find it now. EDIT: It's called "Nucleus." Have found some info and a sample download online. Might try and see if I can learn how to develop for it.Though the device plays nice with Android and ios, it's actually neither of those things. If someone knows what the name of it is, is it possible to find a tutorial on coding it somewhere?

The initial reason I ask is:

Not waiting for the manufacturer to patch the "shut off screen" function. I'd like to see if I can figure out how to do this myself, and

Enabling texting. Rather than a traditional keyboard, am thinking a sliding alphabet. A - slide to B - slide to C, etc. A pain in the butt, but probably less so than trying to use a keyboard. Picture the "carousel" from the Kindle Fire series, but with letters / numbers / symbols. Also, as suggested earlier in this thread texting with use of the mic, if possible.

Not saying I'd be able to do any of this, but I have limited experience doing some dev work in Android (through Unity) and am wondering if it's possible to self teach this OS, figuring that we quite probably won't see a lot of feature updates from whoever the manufacturer is of this product.

Thanks, and God bless.

[Other SmartWatches] psychoTR2:
I've had my watch for about a week now, and I gotta say, for the price, it's pretty killer! I wish there was more development for it besides distributing firmware and flash tools.

I've noticed that when you activate Google Voice search and texting with the watch connected, it uses the watch mic to pick up your voice. I was thinking it might be cool to find a way to trigger voice search and voice texting from the watch, since you can already use it for voice input as long as you trigger the feature on your phone. Have you made any progress on trying to develop for the u8?

Also, I believe I read that they're going to release an SDK for MediaTek devices, such as this watch. Might be interesting to see if anything comes of that.
[Other SmartWatches] Tom in AZ:
Wish there was a way to add a count down timer to this watch. It needs to have the timer with a start/stop button on the screen as well a reset button for the timer. so If I set it to 30secons, when I hit the reset after the 30s is up it will reset it back to 30secs again.

I need to root my phone so I can turn off a few notifications that I do not want to transmit.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] bigperm71:
One of the more frustrating things for me with my Verizon HTC One has been the inconsistency of the following desired functionality:

1. Phone is connected to the car's bluetooth (2013 vehicle)

2. Phone is on Google Now screen

3. Car is on any audio input (let's say I'm listening to my local ESPN Radio station on AM radio)

4. I say "Okay Google"

5. The car begins "listening" -- when I speak my Google Now voice command, I'm doing it through the car's mic, and any responses are through the car's speakers

So that is what I want, and that is what has happened most of the time since I've had my HTC One. Just last week (and at other times), it stopped doing that. Here is what happens now:

1. Phone is connected to the car's bluetooth (2013 vehicle)

2. Phone is on Google Now screen

3. Car is on any audio input (let's say I'm listening to my local ESPN Radio station on AM radio)

4. I say "Okay Google"

5. The car's mic stays off and the speakers keep playing the AM station. My Google Now command will be listened to by the phone's mic.

Other phone/car interactions -- making calls, listening to Bluetooth Audio (using the Bluetooth/Aux car input) -- all of them to continue to work properly. This is the only thing that breaks.

I don't know what changed; I don't think anything changed, honestly. When it has happened previous times, I've also not figured it out, and then it would start working again. This time, it's been a week so now I'm trying to find a solution.

Thanks for any help that can be given. Hopefully I've detailed this out enough.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] SynisterWolf:
in google now, under settings > voice. Is bluetooth headset enabled?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] bigperm71:
synisterwolf, thank you so much -- it was not selected. I enabled it, tried it, and all is well again. I feel like a bonehead for not checking that, but I had forgotten about that setting.

So the one mystery still is how it got changed, but at least I have a good starting point next time this happens.

Thanks again, and have a great week.

I'm really not sure about this. The battery is not showing correct percentage.

Some apps (which means a lot) forces my phone to reboot after giving them permissions, like freedom and coolmarket.

Adaway doesn't work well.

Before this ROM I had ViperOne 6.2.0 with ElementalX which bricked my phone twice.

Sure that I've done a full wipe via TWRP and ROM installed correctly. Rebooted twice.

Well to be honest you will find no help with either of those apps. They are warez and not allowed here. Second you most likely downloaded a corrupted app that messed something up. I would go back to stock and start over.

[Fairphone 1] Biocmst:
Hi there,

Has anyone found a pair of good headphones with a mic that are compatible with advanced commands such as volume up/down, next track etc.? My pair of Sennheisers can start and stop, but none of the more advanced settings worked. I tried various apps to assign actions to one button headsets and had no luck at all. Actually, even the basic functions of start/stop are lost when those apps are active. To my knowledge the only headphones that have been reported to retain advanced button assignments are these ones: Samsung ehs64avfbe, but I am reluctant to buy a Fairphone one the one hand and a cheap pair of headphones on the other.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
[Fairphone 1] Biocmst:
Headphones update

OK, I took the plunge and bought a pair of Senheiser MM 30G. My reasoning was that I had seen somewhere that a pair of cheapish Samsung headphones worked well with the fairphone, and that the MM 30G had been manufactured for Samsung phones. The headphones have a three button command, which are supposed to be volume up/down as well as a start/stop button, which will also answer and end calls.

Out of the box the buttons actually did: next song instead of volume up, and previous song instead of volume down. The middle button for start stop works fine. This is acceptable for me, as I can change the volume quite easily even without taking the phone or of my pocket (the volume rocker is quite tactile even through jeans).

Interestingly, when using different apps to assign button controls I could get the volume control to work via the remote on the headphones, but no long press options e.g. For next song were available. I am thus using them as they are with no extra apps, as being able to skip songs while cycling is important to me.

Hope this helps a bit.

[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rybyte:
I'm pretty sure the screen where you swipe to answer only appears when your phone is locked and the two buttons are when your phone is unlocked. I'm not sure how you can actually force one screen, but I hope I've given you some more info. Good luck!

Hi everyone,

I enabled the encryption on my unrooted unlocked G2. Once the encryption was done, it rebooted and asked for the pin to boot. In entered the pin but the phone keeps rebooting and asking for the pin again and again.

I have tried more than 20 times, sometimes it boots to android but it shows a warning sign in notification (backup account needed) and then reboots after a few seconds. I tried turning on/off but the same thing happens again.

Is there anyway I can get my data

out of this mess before doing a factory reset? Maybe rooting it from download mode and mounting from recovery?

Thanks a lot!

Hi,after I rooted my device was working properly but always the caller's voice quality got down and whatever I've done I couldnt get up the voice quality again.I made WİPE CACHE-WİPE FORMAT CACHE ( FACTORY RESET ) and also I loaded orjinal stock rom turkey I9190XXUBNA1_I9190OJVBNA2_I9190XXUBNA1_HOME.tar.md5.tar but still nothing change.Is there a way to correct this problem by using ODİN or another program or stock rom etc.

Thanks in advance..
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TNCS:
Placebo effect... The root it self does nothing either than giving you Super User permission, as in Linux or Admin right in Windows. It not possible the rooting 'itself' does anything to change your voice quality. If you voice quality really has dropped, it must be something else you did after the root. Maybe an root application or some file/kernel you or an app modified.

Which root method did you use? If it the one that involes in Odin the kernel, than it the kernel that may changed your voice quality. Bottom line - root cannot degrade anything.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enginkpt:
thanks for your diognasis,I used GT-I9190-RootKit-v1.zip , CWM ,odin and than vinginer kernel something like that than I made clean rom again and installed from google play Faux123 Kernel Enhancement Pro because I don't like that kernel remove it from apps.Maybe as I understand what you mention that kersel may cause this problem.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TNCS:
That right, it either the kernel or the kernel tweaking program (such as the Faux123 that you install) that may has a effect on it. Or as I say, it a placebo effect (all in your mind). Rooting by itself does nothing.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enginkpt:
well there is nothing to do.should I send to service ..
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TNCS:
Well, this is a judgement call... I have no idea how 'bad' you're referring to the voice quality. If it really noticeable, than yes Samsung is obligated to do something. BUT you need to restore your phone completely to the default, that means - no root, custom kernel, etc.

And if you phone have knox, that means you tripped it already the moment you use ODIN. Which means a tripped knox counter = no warranty.

On the other hand, if the voice quality is accept by Samsung service centre standard, you going to land up with a long argument with them.

[LG G Flex] brittoking:
Someone asked that in the recovery apk thread and playfulgod made a joke that he'd "given up" on the device, but I think he was more referring to someone asking about an eta for what's obviously a very difficult task

I am slightly surprised there isn't a custom 4.2 Rom yet though. I know kit Kat is preferable and why build for an outdated os etc but I honestly thought we'd see one or two pop up by now.
[LG G Flex] PattyNYC:
I understand asking about the eta could get annoying. I just want to know if it's still in progress.

If development stops then I'm going to try and get a oneplus one. Cyanogenmod right out of the box for $300. Only problem is you need an invitation to buy one. The Flex is awesome, but without custom roms it's appeal fades.
[LG G Flex] brittoking:
I was behind on tech news and had not heard of this amazing device with stellar specifications. The whole invite thing seems really....ummm...annoying and difficult. I am an avid phone enthusiast I would buy one in a heartbeat but in this rare case of consumerism...I most likely will not be allowed to.

The G3 will be infinitely more popular than the Flex. I really like the 6in screen, but I might have to move on soon. If the G3 gets a 64 bit chipset(unlikely) then I will buy one definitely otherwise the oneplus one is the best deal for android.
[LG G Flex] sweets55:
I understand the G3 will be more popular then the Flex but LG is locking phones down more. D-Fuse already said he was done with LG because of this. I have a Jump to use. I know one thing I'll miss with the Flex is batttery life. Nice not having to worry about charging it.
