[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ggnoobteam:
As we know with the kitkat update, the xperia z2 live wallpaper was brought to our xperia z1(the one that changes colour with swipes and touches). I was just wondering if there's any way to stop the colour at a point because the reds and purple-pinks look really really good to me and I'd like it to stay there.

Alternatively, if someone can tell me where that pink wallpaper is from in the htc m8 in this article about xperia z2 vs htc m8 on phonearena then i'd be eternally grateful:

search for the article please i cant post links just yet :P

I think it's the Z2 live wallpaper which is ported but anyway any help is appreciated

Thank you!

I downloaded the zip from here but whenever I install it I get an error

I can install successfully all the major recoveries, latest philz, cwm and unmodified TWRP 2.7.1.0, but Im at a loss as to how to go about rectifying this error. Someone in the Mahdi thread said to update the aboot.img but my googlefu isn't helping me with that issue either. I originally used AutoRec if that helps answer any questions. THanks.

As long as your phone isn't faulty, it should work, its your rom for your phone, sometimes after it finishes installing, if the screen goes blank, just hold the power button until the lights on the bottom flash 10 to 15 times to reset the phone, the change of recovery confuses it.

[General Topics] kjskho1:
how do i change the ringtone folder to somewhere else like \Storage Card\Ringtones?

i followed the wiki to change the ringtone folder to my SD card, but it just doesnt work at all. wat i meant "not work at all" is, when i go into the Setting > Sounds & Notifications > Notifications, go to the Events drop down and select Phone: Incoming call etc, I just get an empty list in the second drop down menu (Play Sound). It doesn't list the ringtone files in \Storage Card\Ringtones. any help on this?

btw, here is the copy-paste registry fr wiki, seems to hv a typo in wiki, where i found SoundCategories in my device not Sound\Categories.

HKCU\ControlPanel\Sound\Categories\Ring\Directory = "\Storage Card\" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
[General Topics] CWKJ:
Think it should be

HKCU\ControlPanel\Soundcategories\Ring\Directory = "\Storage Card\"

But do not bother, I have tried it and it does not work too!

But you can try this,

1. Copy the ringtones files to \Storage Card\ or

2. Copy the ringtones files to \Storage Card\My Documents\

You should be able to see under "Incoming Call" notification setting the ringtones you copied into any of the above directories.

For other notifications like SMS, MMS, Email, I guess you still have to get stuck with \Windows\ & *.wav files! This is M$ WM5. Or maybe someone have some tricks to overcome this!
[General Topics] kjskho1:

[Q] Flashing/blinky screen in black but only on "application level" of display

Hey folks,

So what I'm seeing is the application area/layer of the screen blacking-out in a blinky way, and this seems to happen when there's screen updates like from the application or when I'm scrolling with my finger. The weird thing is this only seems to affect the "application level" layer -- the Status bar and other things like CPU usage (and overlay apps like SwipePad) are unaffected and don't black-flash.

I'm running PAC-MAN ROM (Android 4.4.4) but have experienced this on other ROMS so I think this is either a Note i717 thing and/or something that I'm doing to create this issue. It actually happened with less intensity with other roms of previous Android versions. (probably back to 4.4.2)

What I done wrong? I'm getting a hurt real bad. (a Russell Peters reference, for those who haven't heard his older material)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] captemo:
If you would consider this a screen flicker, you may want to try disabling HW Overlay in the developer options.

Another option may be to read up on POLLUTIONS "Patch". There is a thread for it, but I cannot say as to what issues it will fix. Apparently it is a miracle cure in tye Beanstalk thread.

Thats why I say....read on it first.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mentalfloss:
Yeah those are some good ideas, but here's some more info:

I don't have the HW Overlay option enabled.

The "flickering" is not the entire screen, and it's more like a "black flicker", and

ONLY

on the "application layer"

I found the patch you mentioned in this thread and I'll see if it addresses it when I get a chance to work on the device.

Oddly, I just booted the phone with OTG HDMI connected to a monitor and the flicker is gone! :/ Not really a solution but an interesting oddity.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Cloud-X:
Since no question is "too stupid", I am hoping someone can help me out. My goal is to unlock SIM and switch carriers to TMOBILE. I have a galaxy S4 I337 4.4.2 with ATT. It has the stock rom. It was never flashed, only rooted.

Samsung -SGH-I337

ATT

Firmware version I337UCUFNC1 (ATT)

4.4.2

The phone is rooted. Here are steps I have done so far.

- Rooted phone

- Ran RegionLockAway app

- Entered the service menu, trying to turn off the SHA256 flag to off, but I don't have that menu. Phone only displays 2 options at Network Lock menu - SHA256 info and flag info

- Requested unlock code from ATT and they denied me stating 2 year contract must be fullfilled first. Phone is 14 months purchased. (BullS#$T)

- Purchased an unlock code for $6 from an advertiser on this site, but was told one couldn't be generated and they did refund my money.

I did search in this forum but did not see any threads addressing the i337 US on my firmware for unlocking the sim on my phone. I would be happy to post anymore info if needed. Thank you.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Cloud-X:
Thank you for your help. I appreciate it. I am pretty new to this, so I have a question. There are 2 methods. Which would be relevant for my phone? Would it be method 1 since it is 4.4.2? Also, would mine require a downgrade to accomplish what I am trying to do? Thanks again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jmjoyas:
You would have to set selinux mode to permissive. You can use selinuxmodechanger app.

You need to install safestrap recovery using the safestrap app. Install version 3.72. Install app. Open the app and click on install recovery.

Safestrap recovery is a modified safe version of TWRP for our phone. It doesnt replace the default recovery but is available in normal boot mode. You would see a splashscreen on bootup with options to enter recovery or continue (using the capacitive menu and back buttons).

You would use safestrap recovery to flash the MF3 modem.

The downgrade method was mentioned due to the fact that we didnt have a root method for kitkat until towelroot came out.

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] unclefab:
Here is a mod to make all your apps multi windows compatible.

THIS MOD WORKS ONLY WITH 4.2.2

I know that there are some apps here and there that do the same job but the advantage of this mod is that:

1-it works without any third part app which means that you'll save some ram and some battery,

2-with third apps when you install a new app you have to reboot to have that new app to show in the multi windows tray, whereas with this mod you don't need to reboot, the app shows straight away in the tray.

DO A BACKUP JUST IN CASE

Installation

Download AllAppsMultiWindowsMega6.3.zip, flash it from recovery, clean dalvik cache, reboot.

Bonus

I added a second zip called permissions mw.zip.

It contains files that will enable you to activate two hidden functions in the multiwindows tray (recent and templates), and to have multi instance.

DO NOT FLASH IT but extract the two files.

Navigate to your system/etc/permissions folder.

Add .bak at the end of com.sec.feature.multiwindow.xml so that it becomes com.sec.feature.multiwindow.xml.bak.

Copy the two files from the zip into the folder.

Set permissions to rw, r, r (6, 4, 4).

Reboot.

Now you can see a recent tray at the top of the flashbar (multii windows bar), and a button with a cross at the bottom (below the edit button) of it that is the template button.

Bugs

I found the recent function somehow wonky, but it kinda works and maybe it'll work better for you depending on your phone's configuration.

Multi instance doesn't work for all apps, and for some apps one can't open two windows one after the other (one has to open one window of let's say app A, then app B, then one can open a second window of app A with the first app A still open).

Enjoy!:p

Hi,

I'm using CM11 M7 and my GPS is not working - I'm not able to get a GPS fix in direct view to the sky even during a two-hour card drive.

I've been able to get a fix to the GPS signal before with this phone, both with CM10.2 and at least with CM11 M5 (I can't remember with CM11 M6).

I have already tried getting a fix with or without Network Location on. I've also tried to reset GPS with the "GPS Status" app - all with no success whatsoever.

GPS problem fixed

I had the same issue and already tried different Modems etc. which had no effects. I also tried tightening the screws on the back of the mobile, but also to no avail.

Now (some minutes ago) I finally found a solution that works for me (GT-i9100; CM 11; 4.4.4; Baseband-Version: i9100XXLPS; Kernel: 3.0.64-CM):

I downloaded the GPS.conf from this post (post Nr. 4): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1789212 and copied the contents into my GPS.conf in system/etc/ (using FX-Explorer with root addon). I added the GPS-conf as *.txt to the post.

Now I get a fix in less than 5 seconds.

Let me know if it worked for you as well.

btw: I'm using O2 (DeutschlandSIM) in Germany and although the gps.conf doesn't include my country it still works perfectly

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Jataadroid:
First off thanks for stopping and seeing if you could help with my problem.

I used towelroot to gain root and tweak stock on sprint note 3, which worked perfectly. After installing busybox, supersu, and Xposed installer I went about reclaiming my phone from bloatware and limptard features. At one point I searched what apks were safe to remove from TW based roms, one that wasnt specified in the list was rakein.apk which I ASSUMED (<-- the whole reason for the headache...not confirming its true function) was part of scrapbook due to its icon....nope it controlled pen window.

I need to find a way to reinstall rakein.apk to system/app without it being cleared upon reboot.

Steps attemped so far:

Restored through original backup method-failed

Manually placed apk in system/app, corrected permissions to rwrr-failed

^ that plus mounted system r/w then unmounting partition for reboot-failed

Sideload-failed

---------------

Havent seen anything other fixes except a fresh flash from sammy.

Theres nothing changed on my sprint note 3 except for xposed and active modules all of which ive scoured for possible solution.

Sadly I didnt have a current sys backup either.

Thanks again for everyones help.

Have a good day.

By the way after a few minutes trying to fix it and resting the keyboard settings I jus lock my phone and when I was going to use it a few minutes later, the keyboard came back to normal. So I guess it's a bug on the system. Does anyone have any information on this error?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jdelano:
Maybe too many apps were open and you ran low on resources. Locking and unlocking forced it to redraw the screen and had time to clear some memory. Just a theory anyway.
[Samsung Gear Live] rikwebb:
Ok folks,

I have my new Samsung Gear Live and its paired to my HTC One M7

Although I'm sure that I should be able to reply to SMS messages, the option is not available.

I can say "OK Google" "text fred bloggs" from the home screen and that works.

Do you think the limitation is something to do with HTC's SMS client?

Rik
[Samsung Gear Live] findjaime:
I have the Live w/HTC One M8.

I'm inclined to believe that the reason my replies work is because I have (just started) SMS texting via Hangouts. I only switched from my normal texting client because I knew that the Wear watches would work out of the box w/Hangouts.

That said, Hangouts is a pretty lousy texting app, but I like that it's baked into Wear.
[Samsung Gear Live] Maturola:
Ok so I don't have my Gear live yet (is on the truck out for delivery), however I asked a similar question and for what I understand you won;t be able to replay to the SMS until the App is updated with the new API to support that. I believe the only one that currently support that is Google own's "Hangouts".
[Samsung Gear Live] gadgetgaz:
On Google's promotional video for Android Wear, where the guy is on the bus, he gets a text message and says, "reply - be there in 2" and the message is sent.

That does not seem to work but you can make a swipe until you get a "reply" screen that enables you to speak a reply.
[Samsung Gear Live] rikwebb:
Thanks for the info chaps.

I don't even have the swipe across to reply option - all I get is the open on phone option :(

The reply by voice is one of the key things I was hoping for.

Naughty Google promo's grrrrrr.

Oh well - I suppose we are the beta testers :)
[Samsung Gear Live] MrMediaGuy:
Same issue here with Gear Live and HTC One M7. I can "Open on phone" when I receive an SMS, but no reply options. Assuming this is a limitation of the HTC Messaging client not being "Wear-aware".... although FWIW I can reply to SMS natively on my M7 via Google Glass, which is essentially using the same set of APIs as far as I know.

So I switched (grudgingly) to Hangouts as my SMS client and all works fine. (Interestingly, the HTC SMS client as well as Google Voice continue to stay synched with Hangouts in the background, so I can still use the GV app or Web interface from other devices.)
[Samsung Gear Live] rikwebb:
Yep - done the same here :)

Still no reply without swiping though :(

I'm sure it will come

[Samsung Gear Live] adiliyo:
no i think it needs to support android wear specifically. hangouts and evolve both do as of right now, i'd imagine most of the big apps will follow suit sooner rather than later since they stated that it was minimal amount of code that needed to be added in

A little disapointed to read this (mine will be here thursday) but dont forget guys. Updates, updates, updates!! Im sure it will work soon.
[Samsung Gear Live] adiliyo:
if the sms app you use don't support wear, i'd get in contact with the devs, it's almost a trivial amount of coding that needs to be done to support wear!
[Samsung Gear Live] thevoiceless:
Unless you use the AOSP SMS app :(
[Samsung Gear Live] adiliyo:
i wonder if will be updated with wear support since google uses hangouts now and i don't see them adding wear support to aosp apps that they have essentially abandoned.

maybe see if the 8sms devs can add support since it's very similar to aosp messaging?

When I swipe, I see REPLY, but when i press it, it basically just goes to a check mark.. doesn't even let me say anything.
