[Sprint HTC One (M8)] captain008:
Hello to all, as the title says I would like to know what USB OTG cable everyone is using and if you like or have any issues with it. I have googled my hands out and have not found any direct info with the M8 and USB OTG cables and Amazon was overwelming with cables from China. Any help or advice would be awesome, and as always many thanks in advance.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mrlakadaddy:
Any otg cable with a seperate way to be powered other then the phone is good
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] reinaldistic:
it's a standard. any cable will do. also this is in the wrong forum, there is a section about accessories for the m8 please ask there

[General Topics] Perry2547:
After much testing and trying out various roms, I decided to stay put android 4.3.

Until 4.5 or 5 comes out, I don't see any need to further use 4.4.x.

1. The battery issues never really got resolved in kit Kat.

2. The sd card matter. Hmmmm. How do I talk about this without letting my rage get the best of me? the only app I've seen in the last few months worth paying for is the Snap camera.

And this really is what the sd card issue is all about. Paying for apps.

With the war going on among the smartphones, the drm should not have taken so much control over android.

Unfortunately, Camera has stopped.
[General Topics] eddyhall:
I should have done more research into kit kat before I updated. JB was just fine.
[General Topics] andiedee:
yeah i had a SD card issue today with my HTC one m8, i had to format it and then it worked perfectly is this because of the kitkat 4.4?
[General Topics] Trozzul:
Honestly. 4.3 is my favorite version of Android (jelly bean at least). i have sticked Cyanogenmod 10.2.1 on my Galaxy tab 2 10.1/T989 Galaxy s2/i897 Captivate and they are probably the smoothest version i have played around with. just recently upgraded to a Moto X that came with 4.4 and its not that bad i guess on a stock moto or nexus device, but i cant stand Cyanogenmod 11 or Kit kat roms these days.
[General Topics] Blunt31:
My girl has 4.3 on her GS3 and I think she is going to stay put with that. As for me I am staying with 4.1.2 for now. Running Wicked Sensations v5.0 and I am very satisfied for now.
[General Topics] arigr:
well.. all righty then..what device are you on?
[General Topics] Perry2547:
I'm on a Note 2.

4.3 seems to be where Android reached it's height.

When the next version after kit Kat comes out, I will try it out though.

But if things like the SD card matter doesn't get fixed, Samsoogle is gonna be very surprised at how long some of us can stay with jellybean.

The SD card thing is just about not letting you transfer apps.

Unfortunately, Camera has stopped.
[General Topics] hengky_axel:
4.1.2 still the best :laugh: :laugh:
[General Topics] Boopie11:
I switched from 4.2 to 4.4.2 so i can't speak about 4.3 but I can tell you that kit kat is awesome in terms of speed, smooth and battery life is almost the same.
[General Topics] kevinwang1975:
my experience is that battery in KitKat seems to drain out faster than when it is on JellyBean.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SignumOne:
Hi Guys. I have few questions about some new kernel for my Note 2. Mainly I'm talking about the quality of sound from the speaker after installing a new custom rom. On the original ROM from Samsung all sounds are clean and at the right level (i mean ringtones etc.) After installing custom rom ringtones are a little quieter and the sound is not so good. At first I thought that it is the fault of the rom, but same is in every other rom like CM , OMNIROM and now im on the C-ROM. Can someon can help me ? If I change the kernel it can be better?

And last question which kernel can be best for C-ROM and my Note 2 ?

Cheers!

Anyone playing this game on xperia play? What rom are u using? Any tweak recommended for this game? Im using JokaWildv3 1.2ghz(1.4ghz will overheated my phone and i cant type well on keyboard) smartassv2 sio and init.d file for swap but this game still lag, not too laggy. So if anyone can tell me what rom suite for this game. No lag of course. I love this game. Thanks!

However iam clocking the xperia play to 1.6ghz so maybe thats the reason :D
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Irwan Fauzi:
how can u overclocked to 1.6ghz? i can overclocked to 1.6ghz too but when im charging my phone while playing this game, my phone acting wierd(touch screen messsed up and my phone is overheating really bad). 1.2ghz is the most stable i can get. Are u using krisdee nxt light edition? did u use init.d swap from here?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] METALGERALD:
I think the problem maybe it's because you are using an old version of the rom... maybe if you try another rom like Bane of Speed or Gin2Kitkat that are more actual the problem of your lag maybe dissapear... the other thing maybe is your kernel... i found really fast the Lupus Gb-ICS v7, maybe if you try with diferent roms and kernels you can find the best one for you.

[Sony Cross-Device General] Jackos:
Here is a simple Xposed mod I developed for my own needs a few days ago. It tweaks the SMS/MMS app found in the Z2:

Character Conversion Visibility (aka Cost saving)

Enable MMS preview

Enable save draft dialog

Proper message timestamp

It is compatible with any Xperia device running Conversations.apk 27.3.C.1.2. from Z2, but older versions may be working too.

You can download this xposed mod from the Xposed Module Repository: http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.jackos.xz2ct
[Sony Cross-Device General] Pezo:
Could you please explain what you mean by "Proper message timestamp"?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Jackos:
Without my tweak if your phone is turned of at 12:00 until 13:00 and you have received a SMS message at 12:30, the message will be shown as received at 13:00. However after you enable my Xposed mod, the message will be shown as received at 12:30. It fetches the timestamp from the operator, not the time on the phone.

I hope my explanation is clear :)
[Sony Cross-Device General] Pezo:
I see, that's a nice feature, do you think I can try this with my Xperia Z1c, the version of the messaging app is 27.3.A.1.3?

And can you publish the source code somewhere, I'm just starting with Xposed modules and would like to look at it for inspiration :)
[Sony Cross-Device General] Jackos:
Yes, I think it should work.

The module is itself very basic as it just changes 4 bools. If you still with to look into the code, I will upload it to github. Also, the app is still missing it's place at the Xposed repo. Like I said before, it was made for my own purposes.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Pezo:
If it's not too much trouble, please do upload it.

I will try it and post here if it's working or not.
[Sony Cross-Device General] ado0001:

hi bro first wanna thankyou for creating this APK.

[Sony Cross-Device General] jaffa1980:
Thanks well worth it for the time stamp alone for me lol, just curious I;ve ran custom roms in the past that have had a scheduler built in to the messaging app.. is this possible? i know there are third party apps that do it but they work apart from the text messaging of the phone, i want to be able to reply to a text or create one but rather than click send have an option to delay by days hours mins etc.

I'm sure i had it on custom roms i ran on the galaxy s3,4 & 5 and the note 2... maybe wanams but his xposed module puts my phone into a restart loop until it gets unchecked.

Thanks I'm sorry if I've made no sense lol or if i have rambled on

Hello, Firstly thank you for this module :) ok I think I have conversations version 10.5.a.0.3 on the Xperia Z C6603.

In the modules section there is no mention of Z2 untill the app is installed.

Am I being thick? Could someone please explain in detail what "character conversion visibility" actually does as it doesn't seem to do what I was expecting it to do. I've only just realised that the option is found in the sms settings part.

Also the timestamp works great :) I don't know about the other 2 features as I don't send mms and I don't know what the draft dialog is.

Thanks in advance

I'm sure that is in settings as default since probably before gingerbread correct me if I'm wrong
[Sony Cross-Device General] DrearierJester1:
I wish they had it implemented before GB but unfortunately not.

Basically all I want is to remove the message preview when it is notified on the status bar and notification drop down. So it should only show:
[Sony Cross-Device General] Jackos:
Hello there and thanks for your feedback.

I'll try to modify the description in the modules repository. I hope the official Xposed Module Repository (http://repo.xposed.info/module-overview) is what you meant.

The "character conversion visibility" adds the option to "save costs" in the application. Have a look here:
[Sony Cross-Device General] zippy01:
Ah I get you now I thought you meant disable the notification completely from the notification area and status bar

Thank you, just the title in the xposed repo needs updating however since it does work on other phones aswell then maybe not needed.

Thanks for clearing that up that's what I have gathered it does. I don't need to save costs.

What I want and thought it meant is..

Example

Special characters and emoji etc turn the sms into 70 character sms currently.

I want to be able to use emoji in particular but keep the sms size normal.

Do you know what I mean? And is it possible?

Most the keyboard apps now are replacing smilies with emoji but this restriction is stopping me update.

Thank you

I'll develop an updated Xposed Mod soon (as my exams finish). Thanks for testing.
[Sony Cross-Device General] adamdvd:
Cool. Before making MOD please take look into the newest Conversation.apk from Xperia Z3+/Z4 (29.0.A.1.3), if there were nothing different.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Jackos:
I'm usually developing for the current version available for my Z2, but since I did not update to Lollipop on my Z2 I guess it wouldn't much of a hassle to take the latest Conversation.apk from the Z3/4 build.
[Sony Cross-Device General] adamdvd:
So, we will be talking about it, if the updated MOD weren't working on the newest Conversation.apk from Z3+/Z4. ;)
[Sony Cross-Device General] SavageRobot:
Mod looks good. I'm going to test as soon as I manage to free enough space to make a nandroid and clean flash a new ROM, current I'm having problems with so no point testing yet.

However, would it be possible to make the keyboard not automatically minimise when scrolling through the conversation? Do you know what I mean? Like in whatsapp you can scroll through a text and keep the keyboard open, makes replying to long messages or trying to find something in a conversation a lot easier.

[Sony Cross-Device General] Jackos:
Released version 1.1. Lollipop bugfix.

Unfortunately (as stated in the changelog), it's impossible to fix the timestamp in the lollipop app. For some unknown reason Sony moved that setting to a xml file which I cannot modify via Xposed (I could rewrite the whole class, but that would be incompatible between different devices, etc. and could cause serious bugs). If you want just give me the Conversations.apk from your ROM and I'll modify that manually for you.
