notification drawer issue

Hello

I have a small problem with the interface setting. When I install the rom everything works fine but then after couple of days when I go to use the notification drawer under interface i get message user settings have stopped and have no access. All other settings under interface work fine. I have tried 3-4 times reinstalling the rom always clean install but still run into the same problem. Any thoughts?

Other that that great work so far

Thank you
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] JaylanPHNX:
The fact that this doesn't happen right away, but days later, makes me think it's an app that might be causing it. Are you running Xposed or any other mods?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gquipster:
Debating whether to install an anti-virus product on the Universal since I tend to have Bluetooth on a lot and also use it to browse the internet, use MSN Messenger etc.

Does anyone already use it?

If so what one would you recommend - I'm thinking of using F-Secure's Mobile Anti-Virus.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] vijay555:
It's generally considered unnecessary, given that there are almost no wide spread WinMob viruses, and given the resources the virus killer uses it's considered to be disproportionate.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Ferret-Simpson:
he means almost NO wide spread viruses.

They make virus-scanners for Windows mobile!? They'd better be easier to install than the OpenBSD one.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] niketkumar:
hi there i think thats its really necessary to have an antivirus on your universal as u use ur bluetooth and net on it , coz i personally have ca antivirus which was shipped with the original rom and it really works when i use my bluetooth
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] vijay555:
Sorry, my bad, I said "almost now", and meant "almost no".

Remember that generally to receive a bluetooth virus, you still have to leave your system discoverable, be sent a file, opt to receive it, receive it and then run it before it'll infect you. For such a state of affairs, your own brain needs a virus killer. There might be more easily exploitable vulnerabilities, but generally, if you're exposed to a high risk environment, be it South African truck stops or a discoverable bluetooth connection, use your common sense and appropriate protection.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] fordcan:
Airscanner might help. But I think not necessary at the moment

South Africa is not that bad ! (",) Althou alot of people think so.

Just making a comment about the fairly widespread unprotected frivolity partaken by truckers in particular. Those at risk should take special precautions in all endeavours in life :(

LOL ! just something i picked up from sending txt messages and it stuck with me !

Back to the topic, also dont use any antivirus software on my jasjar or even anti spyware,

spybot for mobile came out awhile ago.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] skywriter:
i don't use anti-virus either as my email already comes throught eh anti-virus filter at work.

last year i was looking for anti-virus, and firewall software when i was attempting to install a VPN package for work. but i couldn't find anything that worked with our companies VPN/firewall.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] liverman666:
Just get SPB Backup,set it to back up your entire device once a week to your SD card and then.......................

Who cares if you get a virus!!! :):):):)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] jasonkruys:
Given the relatively vast resources a virus scanner uses, I don't deem it necessary.

Worse case scenario at the moment is that I get a virus, and I have to spend 20 minutes reflashing the ROM, and restoring my backup file. A minor inconvenience at the moment whilst viruses for wm are rare and lame.
[Android General] he_arslan:
Today most of us have installed many applications in our mobile device. It is hard to know what application running background and using our network. Some fraud applications upload/download data even they are invisible.

Network monitor is a powerful tool to help you to track which application is doing network activity. The google play link is https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jmm.networkmonitor

Let me show you how it work. After start the application, there are two windows to monitor upload/download activity. Below the window, it shows the total TX/RX data bytes, average TX/RX speed, etc. It also shows your external/internal IP address for your reference. There is a switch button to enable floating window. If we would like monitor the data activity realtime, just enable it.

Let's switch to connection TAB.

In this tab, it lists all applications which hold ip connection currently. It also shows total TX/Rx data of the application and the number of ip link. BTW, in the settings we could change the sort method of these applications. Click one application, it displays detail information. In the example, we click google+.

Google+ holds two ip links now. In the title of the view, the green number tracking current google+ transfer activity. No data is transfer now. It was installed on 05-05-2014. The link detail list the remote ip address, link status. In the right top of the view, there is a circle button. Click it, it displays how many processes in the application.

For google+, only one process is running. It is downloading and the process is active since the lump indication is blue. Yellow means it is idle. After click the ip link item, it navigates us to map view. It shows what is physical location of the link connection.

After exit the application, network monitor still running to monitor the data activity since we enabled the "Enable Floating Window". In idle screen, the green box showing current data TX/RX speed.

If the TX/RX speed isn't 0, it means background data transfer is running. In order to know the detail, just click the green floating window.

It pops up a expand window. In this window it shows that google play is transferring data. There are three circle button on the top and it could easily turn on/off mobile data/airplane mode/wifi. You don't need to go to settings to do that. Click the application in the expand window, it will navigate us to detail view of the application. For example, running app was usa today. I click it, it navigates to below view.

Just like previous described, it would switch to process view if I click process switch button on the right top.

It shows that usa today only has one process and the state is running. Now, you maybe notice that floating window wouldn't be shown when not in launch screen. We could disable "Home screen only" in settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] CC268:
Hey guys, I have been out of the custom ROM, kernel, theme, etc routine for quite a while now. I don't plan on getting back into the "crack flashing" habit and I am not even sure I want to get back into custom ROMs...but I thought I would at least stop by here and see if anything "big" or new has happened that would be important to me.

I am thinking about trying Hyperdrive RLS15 as I always ran Hyperdrive ROMs because of the stock feel, but I am not sure. To be honest the stock ROM with ROOT has been just fine.

Now a days I just like a phone that will work forever without any bugs and it seems that the stock ROM does that just fine for me.

I AM ROOTED - MDK base

Anyways, are there any suggestions, stockish ROMS, baseband updates, etc that I should be aware of or try out?

Here is my current phone info:

Android Version: 4.2.2

Baseband: MDK

Build: Stock MDK

Note that I have purposely NEVER updated from MDK so I could use the unlocked bootloader. I have thought about upgrading since I don't do much of the custom ROM stuff anymore, but not sure if it would be worth losing MDK...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tshelby73:
I would stay on mdk bootloader I wish mine was unlocked. Stock 4.4.2 is nice I think I seen one for mdk users. Is not a huge upgrade but I do like the white notifications icons and full screen album art on lock screen. I'm like you I just want root for titanium and tether then I freeze the bloat. I'm done with instable galaxy nexus crack flashing consumes your life.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] KennyG123:
Members are expected to do there own research as there is now more ways to brick a phone with all the security added to them.

ROM suggestions are meaningless as no one has your taste/setup/usage so you should invest the time to read the threads and be sure you know how to install the ROM properly
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] spongeyperson:
Hi, i know this must seem like a stupid question, but i'm new to Sense UI and the stock camera app doesn't seem to have any record button anywhere. It use to be in the side menu before, but now its gone. I dunno, maybe im just stupid or blind, or maybe a service needed to run the Camera app was accedently deleted by me trying to get rid of the crappy verizon bloatware on my phone.

Same thing happened to me when I reflashed a rom from a bad flash. I only had those 2 settings. I flashed a different ROM and everything was fine. Never did find the answer as to what caused it.
[General Accessories] av911:
I use this in my car, definitely better than using the headphone out. I also have the Fiio E17, which I prefer, but it's too much hassle for my car setup.
[General Accessories] vectron:
Nice clean setup!!!
[General Accessories] gabripranzo:
Interesting review.

Have you tried with latest KitKat roms?

When you connect you headphones, will the volume change with volume keys?

How is the sound when connected with an external amplifier? Have you tried to compare it to a good CD player?
[General Accessories] gabripranzo:
Sorry, I forgot to ask you where did you buy the item. I've found it on eBay.

Inviato dal mio GT-N7100 utilizzando Tapatalk
[General Accessories] vectron:
Yes, you should be able to change the volume. What it does is bypasses your phone's "dirty" DAC so the signal doesn't get converted internally (digital to analog), and rather comes out digitally through micro-usb connector to this external "clean" DAC.

Sorry, I'm all stock Android 4.4.2 on my Note 2. And you can buy it directly from their website (per link in my review) or probable ebay, though make sure it's a legitimate seller because ebay has a lot of fake stuff. I received mine directly from HiFimeDIY as a review sample.
[General Accessories] Slusho:
My S4i are designed for iPhone but the middle button still works on my Android phone. However, it isn't working with my new HiFimeDIY Android DAC. I have a single-button cable for IM70 coming in the mail so I'll post my findings with that. I'll be really disappointed if I can't use controls with this since it improves the sound so much on my Moto X.
[General Accessories] vectron:
It's NOT supposed to work. When you push remote button on your S4i or IM70, it sends a special signal to headphone jack of your phone to control the playback or call, etc. That's why those headphones connectors have TRRS connector - Tip Ring Ring Sleeve. HiFimeDIY headphone connector is TRS (Tip Ring Sleeve) so that special control signal will not be decoded back to your phone through micro-usb connection (it's lost). That connection is for AUDIO only, while your headphones send audio and data (control).
[General Accessories] Slusho:
UGH. If I've learned one thing in my recent foray into audio equipment, it's that you have to make tradeoffs. If I want quality audio, I have to pull my phone out of my pocket every time I want to pause, change volume, or skip to the next track. How do we have hoverboards and magic pocket computers and virtual reality but we don't have this!? This is why people use iPhones. For the added features Android provides, you need to be okay with a lot of things not working or being subpar (like DACs and audio controls). Also, maybe you should have mentioned that (unless I just missed it)?
[General Accessories] Slusho:
Does yours have a loose USB connection? Mine can slip out.
[General Accessories] vectron:
Unfortunately, it does. Stay tuned, I'm posting a review of Cozoy Astrapi in a few minutes ;)
[General Accessories] Slusho:
I'm noticing a trend. You seem to not mention negatives in your review.
[General Accessories] vectron:
Negatives come from a comparison of one product vs the other. Read my Cozoy Astrapi review, you will see negatives about HiFimeDIY :) If I don't like a product, I simply don't review it. If I like a product, I will describe it in details so you can make your own judgment. And sometime I get very impressed with "positives" about the product, but rest assured - if you read my reviews carefully, I point out negatives as well. Just that my format is not like other reviewers where they make a list of positives and negatives. Plus, in my opinion, a lot of negatives come from an extended use of the product after you get to know it better lol!!! Unfortunately, I have written hundreds of reviews and it will be next to impossible to come back to every review with a follow up impressions. Thus, I'm depending on you guys to ask me questions ;)

One more thing. I'm not working for a website or a blog where they give me to review products, and I review to decide if I like it or not. I do my own research and contact companies of products that I like and want to review. That also makes a difference on a more positive outlook of my reviews ;)
[General Accessories] kalapyu:
HI all

I have a hifime for android and it works great with my moto G.

I recently got a Huawei Honor 6 phone which supports OTG USB (i can plug a USB key trhough the USB port and read files like movies)

Now when i plug the hifime dac, it does'nt work. The led is green but doesn't deliver any sound...

I though the requierement was to support USB OTG only... Kind of desapointed.

Any tricks?

Thanks!

K
[General Accessories] vectron:
Also has to do with Android version, in case if they customized it.
[General Accessories] kalapyu:
So what should i do? Is there any fix ? Busybox? Firmware? Kernel ? What about cm?
[General Accessories] vectron:
I would probably contact hifimediy to ask what they can recommend. Sorry :(

Also, try this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.extreamsd.usbaudioplayerpro (scroll down, they have a link to a limit demo version). It has its "own" built in drivers to send audio over usb. See if this going to help.

What carrier is that?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bsorli:
Wow...I'm impressed and from what I can see it is the best KitKat Build available on S3.

Running this on my T-mobile T999 unlocked and rooted and your version 5.2 is running perfectly so far. Few items of interest that I need include:

Bluetooth - works perfectly for me and my headsets

Clean Interface

Open Ended Customization

Black (everything)

Keep up the great work and Big Thumbs Up! Sorli...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] scott7175:
Yes you should be able to it is the lte version of d2tmo
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bsorli:
Nicklovell23,

I know this is not in the right forum, but by chance would this work on Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-i8190 Mini (International) and presently running native JB and using ATT/Straight Talk cell service?

My wife and I have been waiting patiently for Kit Kat on our S3, but as you are aware both phones were dropped since they wouldn't support Kit Kat and TouchWiz with only 1gb of RAM. SlimKat is working pretty darn perfect and I'm not having any problems with it and not missing TouchWiz at all besides maybe dedicated VOIP (originally provided by T-mobile and that I'm looking now for other options).

Either way, would this be possible and would like your opinion if this can even be done? on a S3 Mini GT-i8190?

Thanks,

Sorli...

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Bass_Man25:
Look for the link for "d2lte" - that's the one you want as it's a unified build that supports all US Variants of the Galaxy S3. It's near the bottom of the list in the second column.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bsorli:
Build I'm using is: Slim-d2lte-4.4.2.build.5-OFFICIAL-4053

Only change I've made after restoring my apps what setting the default dpi to 300 that is a little closer to S3s default.

So far working very well even without LTE (not supported by my t999).

Launcher request

Installed the rom seem like everything is working ok. I have been using google launcher theme and like it a lot. Is there a way I could install Google Launcher theme on here. The part that I like about google theme is if you say OK Google the search come up with voice recognition. Thanks

Never mind found it it would included in the rom. Thanks
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DatNizzle:
Does this have the unrestricted tethering mod?

Since it's not a T-Mobile ROM is it even needed?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nafeasonto:
Great firmware. Just looking for expanded power menu, if there is one.

Thanks been waiting for slim for awhile :)

The expanded power menu option is in security which is weird, would of never thought to look for it there.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] yuseff14:
I love this Rom

This Rom is so clean and so far I haven't had any problems. I just came from liquidsmooth 3.0 beta, and that Rom had a strong UI crash problem. This Rom on the other hand is amazing. Clean, responsive, and customization is noted. Can't wait to see up dates.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rezik1:
Such an amazing ROM.. Everything is running very stable.. Loving the smaller ui as well.. However at low battery percentages(15%) it starts struggling a lot? Is this normal? Maybe the kernel I'm using? I'm on slimkat 5.2 with kt747 kernel
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muleyman:
Looks like this is the official build 5.0, not the 5.2 weekly build. Flashed it yesterday - finally got sick of all of the bloatware taking up storage space. Everything I've tried seems to be working as it should. I had run slimrom on a T-959 and really liked it. I'm going to have to change the dpi, though. My eyes are too old to enjoy the default.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bsorli:
Not sure what version I'm using since is reports 5.2, but this ROM is still ROCK Solid. Also bumped my DPI to 300 I think and working much much better for another older guy. :laugh:

Hope to see more from this developer and keep up the great work!!! Sorli...

Nope, idek what that means lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Request to all Rom users -

I can't post a poll as such. But would like to know your opinion.

What do you think of a change of the Screen Resolution from 245 (Current Default) to 320 ?

To those who don't know, the smaller the number, the smaller the text and icons on the screen and more space for you to play. The bigger the number, the bigger will be your icons and text.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] boybill:
Changing the res to 320 is the first thing I do after flashing my weeklies.It would save me a step.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muleyman:
I've been setting mine to 300, but 320 would be fine as well. I am not a fan of 245.

First thing i do is change it back to 320. my votes for default 320

Thank you all for sharing your thoughts. I will change to 320 and see how that goes. I know eventually we are going to have built-in DPI Change mechanism.

How are you getting battery life like this? I get a day if i'm lucky. Still better than stock, but how can I get closer to your numbers?
