OK so since I got such a quick answer on my "spacer" question, I thought I'd try it again :).

I have made a shortcut to the today setup in the settings. Only problem is that I need an icon for it. I saw in another post where someone created an exe file just for the icon basically. Could someone explain how to do that.

An alternative would be if I could use the icon from Start - settings - personal - today. But I have Icon Viewer as well as RViewer and can't find it anywhere.

I'd rather be able to use a custom icon, not only for this app but for others, but help on either would be greatly appreciated.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] vijay555:
You want to use an icon dll.

Easiest way - download PHM Tools, find the icon dll, download Microangelo on your PC, use librarian, rip out the icons, make your own icons in studio, drop them into the now empty dll, and use that dll as your new icon dll.

In order to use the new icons, you need to know how to specify icon resources in shortcuts. Search against my user name for the word "completeness".

I also came across this while following a link from aximsite.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] vijay555:
The Shortcut Editor was released on this forum first AFAIK :)

Have a search on our forum.

But have a read through my posts on creating custom shortcuts, it's very easy and will teach you the theory behind the practise.

I think you asked specifically about use of a DLL Icon library. Perhaps not... but it's a useful technique either way.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] bittermormon:
yeah VJ you're right. The aximsite link pointed me here to good ol XDA :)

Which PHM tool do I need? Is it the shortcuts app in PHM Plus?? I'm beginning to think I'm in over my head here.

before you flash the device with lava iris 456 rom, are you know the version of stock rom from your device?

Hello everybody,

Whenever i launch the application i can see my games collection but when i navigate to Social page (where my avatar, achievements and friends would apear) i get a notification to Join xbox live or sign in. I select join or sign in but nothing happens. If i choose to refresh i get a message "Can't refresh, there's a problem with the xbox service or your connection. Try again later". This issue appeared after applying the %^$^# update which made the app to disappear from the app list. I applied the latest update but still no luck. Anyone having the same issue?

Is it possible somehow to reinstall the app?

[Galaxy S III Accessories] aybarrap1:
It will depend on the features you are looking for and tradeoffs you are willing to accept. Urban armor is okay paired with a good screen protector and it keeps your overall phone somewhat thin. Otterbox Armor ifs crush proof and waterproof to a degree but at the expense of sound quality (Bluetooth is an alternative) and makes the phone super bulky. Your choice.

[General Questions and Answers] Nate2:
Why do some Android phone apps have a separate Tablet app?

It would seem more logical to have just 1 app that knows how to render/behave differently if it was running on a tablet device, than to have to manage 2 apps.
[General Questions and Answers] shimp208:
You bring up a very logical point, some tablet apps are extremely outdated from the days where some developers and in particularly companies thought it was just easier to separate the phone and tablet versions. Again it's all up to the developer and their preferences, personally when I develop I'd rather maintain one app then two. As Android tablets continue to evolve this problem will continue to diminish and get ironed out for the most part.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mandeep148:
As always Snapdragon version never available in India officially. Only octa is available.

Is octa one not good enough than snapdragon ? Is that waste of money to buy?

Please share your views.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drakester09:
No.

It outperforms Snapdragon in benchmarks CPU-wise. In GPU, Adreno has more raw speed than Mali though.

It also comes with a higher Linux kernel version for all that it matters, it implements global task scheduling which in theory is better compared to hotplug that is used for Krait. The big.LITTLE architecture isn't a bad idea but the S4 Exynos that showcased it had it wrong... it was not fully functional thanks to a hardware issue.

Battery is in the same ballpark. I get 6-7 hrs of screen on time.

You miss a better modem-SoC integration since the Intel modem in the G900H uses more power compared to the Qcom.

There are only 4 disadvantages vs the Snapdragon:

- Lower GPU performance in benchmarks, in game it's not perceptible.

- More power consumption from modem it seems, blame Intel. It hasn't been a problem for me so far and I call a lot - the battery is good enough.

- No LTE. Major point for anyone living in LTE-enabled countries.

- No custom ROM/Kernel development yet. Thanks to Samsung's previous behavior they alienated devs for Exynos SoCs... don't bet on getting a custom ROM or kernel anytime soon.

Beware of people telling you that Snapdragon is better just because Exynos doesn't has LTE, in most part they both have their strong points and weak points.

Snapdragon is a more proven, supported chipset. Exynos is more bleeding edge but much less supported. It doesn't helps that it's Samsung-only and it's region limited.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mandeep148:
thanx for useful info bro,

so it have lower GPU score, is that also can differentiate or noticeable in UI side, i mean i am going to buy s5 only because of software and its RICH Genius features, i dont feel much about its design, and its expensive, i just want lag free device, i know some times lags are common in android, but thats fiar, due to exynos i will feel lag than snap ?

i hope you understand. :(
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drakester09:
In theory the Exynos variant does not have hotplug lag, it should have been smoother just from that.

The GPU is powerful enough to render the UI with zero problems, the only places where you'll see a difference is in games with OpenGL ES 3.0, it's not noticeable though. Despite the GPU being slightly slower I get 38,000+ in Antutu constantly (it uses ES 2.0 for the graphics test).

In practice, well, it's Touchwiz, it lags... :laugh: it's something you end up accepting because of the extra features and benefits that the software gives you. Coming from a Nexus 5 it's very obvious that there are parts where the software is unoptimized and it shouldn't lag at all... but it does.

Touchwiz is just heavier than stock, it's not the most optimized software in the world and no scripts will remedy that (we would need smali or xposed edits...).

I'd recommend you to visit a carrier store or somewhere that has a device where you can test games or benchmarks and see it.

And if you *really* need a lagless device, get anything that doesn't has Touchwiz... Nexus 5 is extremely smooth.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mandeep148:
ah you really helped me. :good: and sorry for disturbing, actually i like samsung touchwiz, yea nexus 5 is wow phone in terms of UI smoothness and good stocky framework works well. but in samsung i like crowdyness and colourfull and nature, i never get bor :)

i hope exynos s5 will not disappoint me :)

thanks again bro ..
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drakester09:
If you have used a Samsung phone in the past you will be accustomed to the lag and you'll enjoy the much improved Touchwiz.

I really hated it on the S3/N2, slightly disliked it on the S4/N3 but ended up liking the S5 version :)

Battery life and camera are really good.

Performance wise no games should lag or be a problem (only Xcom has managed to drop frames but it's the most demanding game right now).

Hope you enjoy your phone. :)
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DP1980:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
Well first off this thread is from 10 weeks ago.

Second off, out of all those root methods you listed only two work for the Verizon S4.

POOT doesn't work, Framaroot doesn't work and definitely isn't "the most popular one", Z4root doesn't work, no one's ever mentioned Baidu Root working so please link as to where you saw that.

Vroot works but uses shady ChineseSU so not sure why you would recommend that.

Gingerbreak is for Gingerbread devices... the Verizon S4 was released years after Gingerbread?

does our z1c is water resistent in regular water only?or we can shoot pics or videos up to 1 meter in the ocean too?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rekoil:
Lets put it this way, the shell stops liquid ingression, as long as the particles aren't smaller than regular water then they won't make it inside. What will happen in seawater is that the salt and other chemicals in the seawater will start corroding your O-rings, and eventually they will fail. After exposing your phone to seawater I would recommend washing it in clean water and cleaning the seals with a damp piece of cloth afterward.

I wouldn't, for example, recommend you go swimming in the ocean with it every day for a month.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rekoil:
As long as you clean it like I mentioned earlier after each exposure.

Is it worth it though? You won't get any reception in the water, you can't use the touchscreen and the speaker will sound like crap. Yeah it's fun for a while, go take some water photos, just be careful with your expensive phone.

Oh, and don't hold me responsible if it breaks due to my advice.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rekoil:
In order to actually cause any damage the current must be pretty large, that's not going to happen in ocean water. What could happen is dock mode being triggered, and the phone might think its charging, but I doubt it would cause any permanent damage.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rekoil:
I doubt Sony have said anything official beyond what they state in their IP58 certification where it specifically says "clean water". Meaning water with a neutral pH value. The reason for this is the salts and other chemicals in seawater start to corrode the O-ring in our seals, eventually causing them to leak.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vigorito:
well i will report in a first or second week of july if phone survive salt water,ill test it while shooting vids and pictures of the ocean reff,like i said ill try to use it 5-6 days maximum 30 minutes a day in a several times
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gjole86:
I would say that it can survive, provided the flaps are closed and the phone is still waterproof.

like few posts above, the salt in the water may actually damage the loudspeaker and corrode the rings. don't forget its made of metal.

i think its ok to use it for few pics for quick video but needs fresh water cleaning after to clean up the salt in the headphones jack or the speakerphone.

also if u take a macro pic of the camera lens, there is small gap between the back cover and the glass (check my posts i posted some nice macro shots of the camera lens) so things might get inside.

think about the waterproofing as a protection, not as a feature.

so get a call in the rain, but don't go swimming / snorkeling every chance you have.
