[Moto X Q&A] gerodive:
Hi all. My Moto X is unlocked and I've been trying to get a custom boot animation on it by switching out the bootanimation.zip in the system/media folder (using ROM toolbox to facilitate this). Problem is every boot animation is too small and has a huge black border around it when I boot up. I gave up and downloaded the stock one and tried to go back to that and... STILL the black border. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
[Moto X Q&A] gerodive:
Bump.
[Moto X Q&A] gerodive:
Bada bing bada bump.
[Moto X Q&A] Dark9781:
It's because those boot animations are made for a different size screen. You have 3 options. You can either grab the boot animation, extract it, resize the images, then zip it back up, or you could find a boot animation for your X, or you can make one yourself.
[Moto X Q&A] gerodive:
That's the weird thing. I grabbed the official Moto X boot animation, and the Moto X is only 720p anyway (pretty small by smartphone standards). What dimensions should I be changing it to?
[Moto X Q&A] Dark9781:
If it is the official Moto X boot animation then try placing it in system/media manually. You may want to back up the current boot animation first.

need a quick help here. i accidentally left my charger at work overnight, and someone decided that its his/her's now :( ....ive searched around and cant find place to buy the original charger that came with the m8. HTC's website doesnt have it. amazon doesnt. even ebay dont carry it.

i need of a charger. currently using a LG G2 charger thats rated 1.8a 5v .....but with a super slow cable.

is the LG charger okay to use? will it damage my m8 in the long run?

i am also buying this cable on amazon. buy or dont buy?

yes, i know there is a quickcharge 2.0 coming out. seeing as the cable is only $5 ...im thinking it will do for now.

thanks in advance
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D0GuKaN:
HTC charger outputs 5V and 1.5A. As long as output voltage is same, you can use different chargers. Ampere value just affects charging time. Higher ampere means faster charge. In long term, it can shorten your battery's life, but I don't think 0.3A can cause an observable affect :D

Now, translate carefully and answar this questions:

Did you rooted .534?

Also you should have back the camera working after update to 4.4 FW .757, but I heard that someone lose the camera permanently after Unlocking Bootloader on .534.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
without the TA backup if you unlock on 534 the camera is broken forever

Those that unlocked on 534 needed to restore the TA backup, upgrade then unlock to get the camera back.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonas740:
You really sure.

Sony themselves said they fixed that with a firmware update, dunno exactly what firmware the fix came in but as i understood it was fixed so the camera will work from 4.3 and onwards. Because the camera will work with custom roms.

And well, everything is fixed that was said to be gone in firmwares after that, according to Sony. And yes you can relock your phone with flashtool. But DRM keys will gone forever, but then again as Sony says "it wont change anyhting with the phone, unless you put a custom rom in it with the firmware that is today". So DRM keys seems not that much needed anymore.

But it IS a good thing to always back up the TA and DRM keys before doing anyhting. I didnt do this and have never done though :D

This is a weird one.

I've a number of POP and IMAP accounts set up, as well as Hotmail in the mail client of WM5 (latest O2 release). I've had no problems creating accounts in the past but I now find that the option for creating new accounts is greyed out. All the existing accounts work fine.

I've not done anything to alter the operation of the mail client other than install Saman's SMS Delivery Receipt Fix.

Has anyone seen this problem before? I've not been able to find it discussed elsewhere. Any ideas how to fix it?

[General Topics] Goldry:
Further investigation suggests that the problem is that I have reached a maximum number of e-mail accounts: 4. If I delete an account I can add a new one. It doesn't seem to matter if it's an imap or pop account.

Does this sound right? Is there a hack to change it?

I saw a document on www.microsoft.com that said you could only add 4 additional accounts. Sorry I can't find it atm.

i notice that sometimes on rare times my xperia play cant go to charge mode, sometimes after installing certain kernels,if i plug my phone to the wall wile its off it just goes to flash mode for some reason and that does NOT charge the phone, even if i plug it to the wall then turn off the phone it still goes to flashmode. If you leave it there and the battery dies it's hell getting it to turn back on!

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] kingofthebraves:
I'm currently using a note 3 and I'm thinking of getting a Z Ultra,. Is the conversion from a Sony to GPE flawless meaning it'll be exactly the same? (like on the HTC one?) or will be slight differences in performance and battery life? How is the sony rom kitkat running on this thing? No more stuttering or lag?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sadman Khan:
The official Sony rom is better is my opinion. And you can always convert the Sony one into a GPe one. So it's better to get a stock Sony version.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SUPERUSER:
If you reboot your device every two day or so it will keep on going like a charm :good: ...im not a big fan of that. I have my device running as many weeks until it starts doing funny things.. like all linux machines tends to do when they run for months or longer without rebooting
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
Doing linux wrong then

No the conversion from sony to GPe is not a full one, it is just a custom ROM. Now [MENTION=2784807]DooMLoRD[/MENTION] has a GPe we might see a full conversion. Performance and battery should be the same between full GPe and the port. The Sony KK firmware is quite nice. The live wallpaper stutters once in a while though, but if you change it then all is good.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] atrix2:
I was using GPE custom rom,simple and clean.If use Sony rom,4.3 would be better!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] E90 Commie:
I would say this:

On 4.4.x, the GPe ROM or CM11/AOKP/PA/PAC is better choices of the simple reason that they can use phablet mode properly. I am talking about changing the DPI to 240 with separate notification/quick settings bars. On the other hand, Settings lacks tablet mode on 4.4.

The problem with the Sony ROM (4.4) is the loss of working notifications when the DPI is lowered. They have modded the notification bar with quick settings, which breaks down when something lower than 320 DPI is used.

On 4.3, the stock Sony works perfectly in phablet/tablet mode on 240 DPI.

I think 240 DPI is perfect for the Ultra, it uses the screen space very efficiently and enables phablet/tablet mode in different apps etc.

On GPe or CM11 et al, 240 DPI works perfectly. It is also worth to mention the fact that most Sony apps are ported and runs great on the GPe ROM. There's no need to use a Sony stock/based ROM just in order to get Album, Movies, Walkman or Sketch etc to work. Even the latest Z2 based versions of those apps run great on GPe et al ROMs.

This fact, paired with the problems caused by DPI changes result in this simple situation:

1. Sony based ROMs are better in 4.3 since they can handle phablet/tablet mode properly.

2. On 4.4, go for the GPe or other non-Sony based ROMs like PA or AOKP.

3. The Sony Edition of the device is more spread and gives more ROM options compared to the GPe one. It is therefore better to get it from Sony and then flash the GPe ROM.
[Android TV General] EmbeddedSYS:
Intro:

I noticed a past post regarding a kuno tablet. I have recently legally acquired a kuno 3, and am hoping to re purpose it.

BackGround:

I am not a high school student trying to hack one. I am a college student, EE Senior and CS junior, and am taking this on as a personal project but my experience is limited to simple embedded system, HDL, and micro controllers. I fully understand that for the time and effort required i could just go buy a new tablet fitting my needs, but where is the fun in that? I have put little research into this subject, my understanding is that getting into the root is the place to start. As to what that consists of, i have little knowledge, except don't break it.

Scope:

I don't expect anyone to have a quick answer, or to do all the work themselves. What i am looking for is a place to start. Resources, guidance, or sharing of your infinite wisdom is greatly appreciated. I will try to keep my progress updated, but not to the level a HS student will destroy the one they are given and waste all our sweet taxpayer dollars. Thank you for you time.
[Android TV General] gume:
I'd say rooting is a mean to an end. Your post makes it sound you want to root your device, just for the sake of it... really there's nothing worthwhile in rooting a device in itself.

When you want to root a device you must want to do some function not allowed by its manufacturer.

[HTC One X+] panpjp:
Hi

As we all probably know, Android defaults to mounting the sdcard with noexec flag.

You're probably thinking "Okay, sure, we can just do mount -o remount,rw,exec /sdcard"

But not with this device.

This thing uses MTP, FUSE, and other things that make us "cannot have complete control over our device" (I'm talking to you too nVidia)

SO my question is: how can one mount /storage/emulated/0 or /sdcard or whatever WITHOUT noexec?

I've tried editing enrc2b.fstab from AROMA file manager (meaning no S-ON crap) but it got overwritten.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] metalblaster:
My battery life has been horrible lately, im wondering what is considered the best 4.4.2 rom in terms of battery life, and if theres a potentially good kernel to go along with it. Currently im using slimkat and its better then the CM nightly i was on before but still doesnt last an entire day. I know the battery is probably just getting old, i just want to try to squeeze what i can out of it until i have to replace it. THanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Go with Wicked 6.5 IMHO. It's debloated, looks pretty and has tweaks to save on battery already. And the kernel than comes with it is the best available kernel, too: Ktoonsez' KT747 for TouchWiz 4.4.2.

Sent from my Sprint Samsung Galaxy SIII with Wicked X v6.5, Ktoonsez' latest kernel and the latest Philz Touch Recovery.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
Although I agree with roirraW "edor" ehT suggestion. I would also like to state that the question you pose is subjective at best. Without knowing exactly how you use your device it is difficult to give you a combination that will perform the way you want it to. There are many variables involved in choosing a Rom / Kernel combination. Questions such as , but not limited to : heavy user - light user - power user - do you want just performance - do you lean more towards all out battery life - is lag not an issue - do you have a lot of apps - etc. These are just some of the questions that must be taken into account when choosing a combination for yourself. So it is best to experiment with various combinations until you find the one that is best for you, and how you use your device.

Also it is best to always make a Nandroid Backup when going through the process. That way you will almost always have a safety net ;) .
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DigiPimp75:
Im also using Wicked 6.5 and I flashed the stock theme back to it because I dont like cartoon looking stuff lol.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soumen.sam:
I’m not a android technical guy but it looks like a higher background process issue. Disabling unnecessary system apps is a good idea but disabling manufacturer system apps isn’t a good idea. I’ve doubts those appa you’ve disabled listed below. I should never disable these at all.

Google Play services, Google Play Store, Google Services Framework, Samsung Apps, Samsung Apps Widget, Samsung Link.

The system runs in full process when its looking for something and its not getting the right thing which it needs. Getting the phone hot is an indication for that, like its gets hot when playing large games. The cpu is running with full capacity. Also if the mobile data (3G/HSPDA) running constantly that is a plus point for making it hot and draining battery. Using WIFI most of the time consumes way to less battery.

Also check the RAM and CPU usage if possible, I doubt both will be high. And turn those apps on and keep all updated then do a factory reset, better by hard reset (not from setting menu). I hope this issue will be fixed.
