hi all hope you are loving the new g3 as much as i am :laugh:

google have released the ok google phrase from anywhere (any app/any screen) as long as the phone is on (only moto x can do it off)

i have tried to set this up on my g3 but without success

i updated google play services to 3.5 and my google search app is is on version 3.5.15 (this feature comes on 3.5.14+)

but cannot get it working

anyone who has? anyone know how?

i am in the uk

i have changed my voice search to english-us from english-uk but no joy
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
1) it only works for English US at the moment

2) its on a slow roll out, having the correct up-to-date apps is not good enough, Google have to have selected you to have the feature.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iLHaNroID:
If I didn't get it wrong, LGs own search function is killing that feature in G3, so "Ok Google" works just in case Google search is active in foreground.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwerty1q:
I installed Nova Launcher on my G3 in the UK and now OK Google starts from any screen of the launcher
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
"of the launcher" is not what the OP was asking. The new Google update allows for "OK GOOGLE" to be used from any app, anywhere on the device.

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] raz3k:
Hello,

I have a GT-S6102 running Android 2.3 and i don't know what i triggered but i have the following problems with it:

- When sleeping if i try to push an application to the phone, it won't go

- When sleeping or online if i try to locate using android device manager it says location unavailable

The problems tend to get fixed after i reboot the phone and/or am on wifi, but on 3g nothing happens and yes, i have internet connection.

Bottomline question:

What and where can i check so that i can make sure the phone is ping-able by google servers either awake/sleeping/on 3g/on wifi ?

Maybe background data? But where can i check? I am having hard times finding stuff on 2.3 .

Thanks!
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Galaxy_Rohit:
Open dialer & type *#*#4636#*#*. Testing screen opens up.

*To test phone's network, select Phone information. In the next screen, tap on Run ping test. If successful, it will show Pass in both Ping Hostname (www.google.com) & HTTP client test.

*Now, to test wifi network, go back to dialer & type the same code...but this time, select Wifi information followed by Run ping test on next screen. Check the result in the same way.

Hope this helps...!!!:):)

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranjb:
hi

one thing that frustrates me with my android is the amount of folders and files that are created when you install apps and system files. my internal memory is literally full of unwanted folders. folders for old apps etc which no longer exist.

I want to now move some apps to my newly inserted sd card but I expect random folders will be created on there .

my phone is rooted and runs a custom ROM. is there any tools I can use out there which will allow me to specify where I want certain folders to go to? to ensure my SD card is kept tidy. For example if I create an apps folder could I route apps to this location?

I also use titanium backup and wanted to use that to move apps to sd card. would this be recommended?

any guidence on this would be most appreciated

thanks

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] roostishaw:
I have the GS4 (I545.06 if it matters), build ME7, on Verizon, Android 4.2.2, with root.

I've been trying to read through threads about upgrading and keeping root, installing CM, etc., but I'm honestly just lost.

So here's what I'm wondering:

Is the latest version of Android for this device on Verizon 4.4.3? If so, can I upgrade with OTA updates to that version and keep (or regain) root somehow? If not, what is the latest version of android that I can upgrade to and still keep root?

It seems very difficult or impossible to install a normal, up-to-date, functioning version of CM on this phone due to bootloader issues. Is this correct?

I gained root on this device so long ago that I'm not even 100% sure what I did to get root or keep it. I think I used Titanium Backup to "freeze" the system apk that checks for OTA updates from Verzion, and that is why I am still on 4.2.2.

Anyway, I'm super confused and just wondering what my options are as far as upgrading to the latest version of Android or CM at this point from the state my phone is currently in. If I left out some necessary info please let me know.

Thanks in advance! :D

[Verizon LG G2] cletusarrarr:
So i just got a brand new LG G2 , wanted to start straight with a custom rom, read that it was safest to take the 11A onwards route to be safe cause the new way the bootloader is flashed may cause hardware issues.

So i flash the11A tot

Root using IOroot

install PhilZ recovery using Flashify

then from recovery pushed the 11A to 24A zip.

i tried installing the Malladus rom however it completed in 5 seconds and i dont think it really flashed

Rebooted to TWRP ( Which i suppose came from the malladus) tried the same, ofcourse did the factory rest too , still the same

Then tried sideloading which gave me the error code 7

tried another file which just didnt push itself

What am i doing wrong here , if someone could shed some light the best way to get from 11A to kitkat would be much appreciated.

i have installed the TOT now back to 11A. :(:rolleyes:

You can root using Root Genius:

Disable any firewall, and enable ADB Debug on you phone ?

Otherwise you have to flash my recovery with SpFlashTools.

After you've flashed, power on your phone, go into recovery and reboot into stystem. Twrp will detect that the phone is unrooted....and you have just to perform a swipe to obtain root permissions ?

Although I'm still trying to figure out the difference in a hard reset and a factory reset, I need to do one. So I'm wondering if there is any recommendation out there on the best way toi get my phone back to what I need.

Here is what I am doing - please let me know what I might be missing:

1) Installed appback, sms backup and restore, and call log backup and restore and ran them

2) rooted and installed titanium backup

3) backed up apps and a few system settings (wifi, desktop background, a couple of others) with TiBU

4) Also used several apps own backup utility (like nova launcher allows you to export your settings)

5) Plugged my phone in and copied everything from the "phone" and from the sd card to my computer

All my contacts are in gmail, so I don't have to worry about losing those.

Is there something else I should do here or am I ready for the reset?
[Sony Xperia M] -FliP-:
I have an Xperia M C1905 currently at 4.3 15.4.A.1.9.

I now want to root it again, and to do so I need to downgrade it back to 4.1.2. However, the flash process always fails with the following error message "ERROR - Processing of loader.sin finished with errors.".

I looked for a sollution and found one, it said to install all drivers from flashtool/drivers/flashtool_drivers.exe which I have done, but I'm still getting the same error.

Unlocking the BootLoader is not an option, as my carrier is not allowing it.

You don't have to.downgrade anymore as towelroot can root 4.3 locked bootloader. Look in the general section for step by step guide on doing it, I have rooted mine via that guide
[Sony Xperia M] -FliP-:
I forgot to reply to this post.

The problem was because I didnt uncheck the file verification in FlashTool. I know about the new half-root method to use with rootfix on 4.3, I would have used it as a backup method is the other root method failed.

To people that may be finding this topic while searching on google, what I did was flashing 4.1.2, rooting it (Framaroot - SuperSU and Gandalf exploit), then flashing 4.3 excluding the system.sin .

There are Tutorials about it in the General section.

Other useful stuff to do after getting a rooted 4.3 is to swap the memory. I've been using a script that worked well, now I did it by placing a file into init.d. Again, all of this can be found on xda (google it, it will most likely spit out xda results).

I finished my work, so this topic can be locked, or left open for people to ask questions regarding the steps I did. Everything is working fine for me.

EDIT:

Forgot to mention that Reboot Fix is no longer necessary on 15.4.A.1.9 (even though it didn't work on 4.1.2). So far, during the re-installation of all my apps (was not required during the root process, I decided to do everything from scratch to remove all apps I haven't been using) my phone didn't reboot once, normally it would reboot roughly every 10th to 20th click. So I figure Sony has fixed the problem.

Some Universals work at 624Mhz and some don't. I don't think the version of Xcpu Scalar makes the slightest bit of difference.

I've seen all available versions of Xcpu Scalar used with four different Uni's and all versions have failed on three Uni's, while all versions from have worked with the fourth. (Two of devices of my own, and two different friends' devices)

Just the luck of the draw, methinks!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] cktlcmd:
That sucks, I guess the one I got can only run as fast as 520. But I still consider myself lucky, I have not encountered any problems with my Universal except I had to buy an extednded battery for it to make it last a little bit longer.

But I will try XCPUScalar version 3 as soon as I have time, about 2nd week of December. Plus, too many developers are releasing such nice AKU 3.2 ROMs that it is just too much to install everything then the next day you find out there is a newer version already.
