I had it, and got rid of it, it sucked my ram dry, I literally watched it go from 20mb to 3mb in a matter of minutes. perhaps the installation method.

also i dont find it any more functional at all than the SPB, and SPB takes up less today screen space.

Other experiences? does anybody else find it more functional, useful and more stable than not using it at all, or compared to the SPB plugin.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] cktlcmd:
I tried both, the official WM Plug-in occupies less memory (175KB), SPB plug-in takes 475 KB. Plus, the official plug-in you can use the arrow keys to control the play, stop, fast forward, etc... buttons. SPB does not.

Hey guys, really simple question. Some apps that I like to use (mostly games) have this branding and there is always black bars that are useless on the top and bottom. I tried using the App Settings in Xposed and it's not working out for me. Any ways that I could actually get rid of those black bars and have an app that covers the entire screen?

Battery life is doing quite bad due to android system. any idea how to fix? thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BWolf56:
that could be due to your bad signal. You might wanna look into another modem (unless you took that screenshot somewhere you don't really have signal).

You could download BetterBatteryStats and monitor a full charge. That would give you a better idea of what is draining your battery.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:

Hi, I installed the Paranoidandroid rom on my xperia s, now the internal storage is not mounting - the only storage visible to the phone is the 2GB part.

The only way for me to access the internal storage is to mount it within cwm recovery and connect to pc to view on pc. It in inaccessible when the phone is booted into rom, and is also invisible to pc when in rom.

How would I go about fixing this?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nando Neri:
Hi everyone, i'm new here, and already have a question for guys:

I have the BQ Maxwell Plus: bqreaders.com/gb/products/maxwell-plus.html

It has Android 4.1.2 and is not rooted, it has the official 4.1.2 update although it came with 4.0.4.

I want to remove the navigation bar because it takes alot of space in games (Witch i play alot, example: MCPE, Star Legends, Call Of Mini: Zombies, Etc...), so here's what i did:

*1: I downloaded a soft key app: Button Savior.

*2: I enabled the ''up to root'' option on ES explorer and went to /System.

*3: I openned Build.prop and scrolled all the way down to the bottom where there was a line that was empty.

*4: I wrotte qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 in a NEW line, UNDER the empty line.

*5: I saved, and turned of my tablet (BQ Maxwell Plus).

*6: I turned it on and it was exactly the same,

*7: I went to check the Build.prop and it was normal, without the line i wrotte to hide the navigation bar.

Anyone help? i posted a picture of some steps... (They're the numbers in red).

Am i doing something wrong?

Thx in advance :silly:

Hey everyone, really need some help getting my GPS working again.

Used to be on slimkat but went back to stock, everything was fine. Saw the OTA for 4.4.2 and installed, didnt notice any issues. Was trying to use GPS the other day but couldnt get a lock so heres what I've done so far

-download GPS status and clear then refresh AGPS data, left alone for a bit, nothing.

-In bootloader cleared cache, tried GPS status app again with no luck

-In bootloader did a factory reset, booted up without importing data, tried GPS status app with no luck.

-Checked screws around case, tried GPS status app, no luck.

-Downloade and flashed stock 4.4.2 firmware via odin, no luck.

-Tried alternative GPS fix (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2211690) booted up GPS status app and left, managed to see 3 satalittes(my nexus 7 '13 see's 8-12 in same spot) but wasn't able to give a lock

- Tried changing CSC (http://androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s4/761247-gps-fix-dummies-guide.html#post6105418 Its for the S4 but well **** I'm willing to try anything) phone was on the wrong one and changed it to the correct GLW code, cleared cache, tried GPS status app, nothing.

I need help, could this be a modem thing? any help would be seriously appreciated

Also mad love to geohot for towelroot
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Try GPS test by chartcross. Also how long did you give it? On the Sprint port some had to let it sit and keep trying for over ten minutes. But after getting the initial lock it was much better afterwards.

Since youve been messing with different fixes and files though, you might want to reflash the firmware first.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] northghost:
Is there a phrase for when you unplug the cable and it doesn't fix it but the IT guy tells you too and say you have but you do it anyways and it fixes the problem?

I must've flashed stock 4 times yesterday with no luck then you tell me to do the same thing and it works...... Lol I guess you scared the gremlins away.

I noticed that if I restart my phone I need to use a app to refresh agps data afterwards I have instant lock and see 20+ sats

Hello everybody,

I few days ago i bought an HTC M7 ATT unlocked phone to work in Costa Rica, it really work very nice but has the android version 4.1.2, sense 5 and software version 1.26.502.12. As you all can undestand i want sense 6 but i just migrate from IOS and im new in android. I have been reading how to do it manually but im not clear at all, in fact i downloaded an image in HTC1guru called: OTA_M7_UL_K44_SENSE60_MR_HTC_Europe_5.11.401.10-4.19.401.11_release_372404wj19h95c0x6oa19n.zip

but Im not sure if i can use a OTA version from Europe or Asia here in America. :eek:

As i can see once i have the correct OTA version its not a big deal to upgrade to sense 6 but its my firts time and i want to do it right.

In the procedure to do the upgrade there is a point complicated for me: Make sure to have the stock Recovery installed. You can usually just pull this from the OTA file itself and flash via: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img ?? Could you please explain me that??

if anyone of you could explain me o recommend something better i really would appreciated.

Thanks in advance:good:

I understand that this is a cosmetic, useless change, but it is for my mothers phone and she just cannot grasp the concept that H is 4G, so I'd like to somehow change the H to 4G for her. This is for the BeanStalk 4.4.2 ROM.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Um, I believe someone will have to decompile the SystemUI.apk and make an xml file that associated the HSPA singal to the H icon to the 4G icon. I don't have any expertise in it, but I can give it a shot when time permits. I think [MENTION=3245411]tys0n[/MENTION] might have a bit more experience in this area/

I came to that understanding from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-nexus/development/mod-4g-h-icon-hspa-t1633268

Note don't try to use that, it's not meant for our phone, I'll try it for BeanStalk,

Edit: My attempt at trying to replace the icons with 4g just resulted in the top bar just disappearing all together, perhaps someone with more experience can help you out. I'm sure there's a way to do it through the xml files but I can't find anything relevant.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tys0n:
An easy way would be to push the SystemUI.apk from "/system/priv-app/" to your computer.

Unzip it, go to "/res/drawable-hdpi/" and simply switch names of the H/4G icons, or LTE icons.

Open original SystemUI.apk again but without unzip, then just drag all renamed icons in there and overwrite the old ones.

This will at least change the icons in statusbar to show 4G or LTE instead of H.

Took me about five minutes, now it says LTE.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I decompiled and recompiled it using andriod apktool or android multitool.

It's possible to unzip the files using winrar or 7z?
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tys0n:
Yes. Just like any other archive.

Switch names of the icons in the unzipped folder, open the unzipped SystemUI.apk and drag them in there to update the changes.

I pushed it back while I was in twrp and chmod to 0644.

I think this works as long as nothing is being removed or added :)

Nope. Just shows the default 'android' boot animation.

Nope. Same thing.

Finally try putting back the original boot animation.

Nope. Same thing.

What's up? Is there some hash that has to match for the animation to work? Or is there multiple places the animation zip has to be in? I don't think it's my animation because it does the same thing to the original animation. Any help? I can attach images/video if that helps.

Hi to hall.This is a beginner question (i can help with your pets, I am only veterinarian). Appreciate the simple answer of the recognized experts in this fórum.

I only a week ago that I have the Coolpad 9976A and since I connected to the network, it asks me to update to version 2.056 (from .048). And although it seems trivial, I do not how to do it: I'm click on OK and leaves all in Chinese, as you know, and do not ask me more.

Nothing, happens:...a dialogue on gray background, which leads to nowhere, because the system is not updated. I leave this screen restarting with a long press on the power button. Goes off first and then restart, but nothing has been updated.

Can someone guide me in this?.

I tried to contact the brand, but email address which supplied, does not really exist and returned the mail to me, also have tried to contact anovo, technical service in Europe (I'm Spanish) but I had no answer.

I do not need rooting, or anything special, if update, because at least with this firmware, important errors occur in some google apps (i buyed on aliexpress and comes with play store) as maps, navigation, weather...etc.

Please, can anyone tell me how to proceed to update this firmware?

So the other day i bought the note 2 form someone. I did not realize it had a custom rom on it until i got the 4.3 update and could not proceed with the download because for interruptions. When I found out it wasnt the orginal one from ATT I was thinking I know there was something that could be done.

Most likely the person was trying to unlock the phone and downgraded with a custom rom and tried to update OTA.

How could i uninstall the custom rom and go back with the factory firmware.

My phone is in odin mode with custom and knox cout is 1.

Would I have to root my phone to do it or could i go into the setting using the down vol, home and power btn and wipe clean or would that mess everything up.

Also my phone have bad signal problems when in certain houses lol .
