[LG G Watch] nba1341:
So when I read a gmail and then swipe away it is not marked as read on my phone I still have to go on the phone. This also occurs in hangouts even when I reply via the watch.

Is this an Android Wear bug or am I swiping the wrong way or something?
[LG G Watch] DanSeb:
Same here, I wondered the same thing, I use it a lot to read emails and reply to messages which then causes to see a bunch 'unseen' messages and emails on the phone once you open it. A bit disappointing to have this great tool to handle messages but actually having to handle them twice for them to go away.
[LG G Watch] spiderflash:
No that's how it works at the moment. Swiping away does the same thing as swiping away the notification on the phone. It's not marked as read there either. What you can do instead is choosing "open on phone" as that marks it as read.

A few days ago, I TOT'd back to stock and have been using that, but now a site I regularly use keeps refusing to load. It does this over data and WiFi, so it's not like AT&T is blocking it. Is there any way to unblock it?

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcnbama:
So, it didn't work with either of your browsers? Did you do something different with the phone like maybe an add blocker that might be thinking it's something else? That's just the weirdest thing I've ever heard just one website like that....

thanx for reply

its been almost 12 hrs and i have tried too many roms on xperia j

and my experience says using stock .31 ftf give me best performance and battery life

i have tried stock base rom having z or z2 stuff but all are having some issue like white text in setting>app>downloaded and some are having lags

also text issue in some other areas

can you suggest me fully customized and properly build customer rom 4.1.2 having no issues and perfect for daily drive

thanx
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] lhkakex:
Sorry for late reply,

I suggest you to use PA rom made by lozohcum,it's base on cm10

PA ROM : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2326477

As you tried a few custom rom,you may notice that the screen won't light up when someone dial-in, you need to press the lockscreen button twice in order to pick up the phone.

also,the illumination bar isn't working normally in cm10,you can try it first and you can disable it from setting page after you flash the rom.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] ahrion:
I rooted my phone with towelroot. I want twrp but I don't have a computer readily available. I've been looking around if I can flash twrp another way without tripping KNOX or bricking, but I have yet to find a reliable solution. Anyone have any suggestions, solutions, or ideas?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] ashraf sharif:
you might be able to install twrp without tripping knox. but if you use it you will most likely trip knox. custom recoveries , kernels and roms all will trip knox and void your warranty. at least with towelroot you can make plenty of modifications. and keep your warranty intact in case you need it in the future/
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] aooga:
No, flashing a custom recovery WILL trip knox. What do you need that requires a custom recovery? Most mods can just be manually pushed to the proper location without a custom recovery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] robert90262:
I don't really know about tripping knox but you can install twrp through there app from the play store
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Computz:
Been researching into this issue as well. There must be a way around this because on my old AT&T S5, I tried out Alliance Rom via Safestrap and it never seemed to trip knox as far as I could tell. Knox counter was 0x0 when I got rid of that phone. I may hold off and put TWRP when I pay off the EIP on the phone which should be in a few months.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] xda23:
So basically if you towel rooted your device and installed twrp and you tripped Knox there's no way to reverse backup and untripped Knox putting it back to 0x0 is there?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] galaxyuser88:
Towel root will not trip knox. Only custom recoveries and custom rom and kernels trip knox. There is no way to get knox back to 0x0 if you trip it. Maybe in the future, but it seem unlikely. Most of the folks that could figure it out , now work for these companies and r not allowed to share info anymore. The companies motto is "If you can not beat them, then hire them."

At the rate android is going, we might as well buy iphones. Good quote that these companies share is "The android people are free to do exactly what they are told to do. "
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] xda23:
O.k. so I towel rooted my device how do I flash roms, kernels without tripping knox? Thanks :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] aooga:
You can't...yet. Flashing a recovery, which is needed to flash roms, trips knox. You can flash a kernel in ODIN (rarely) but that will trip knox as well since it isn't signed by Samsung.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] xda23:
Hey is it possible to flash using flashify? Thanks. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] aooga:
You can flash it, but it will still trip knox when you boot into recovery. What I really don't understand (no offense), is why people care about knox. Tmobile doesn't. So unless you live outside the US, it really doesn't matter.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Computz:
If you are planning to use the Jump program, it does matter from what I read on the T-mobile support forum because you will be charged the insurance deductible on the phone if it has been determined that knox has been tripped. One would figure they evaluate these phones to see if they can refurbish them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] aooga:
This is totally wrong. There are multiple reports of people jumping with Knox tripped. Even I've done it. No one has said they've had to pay anything because of Knox being tripped.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Computz:
That's good to know.. :good: But how much longer will they not care though? Would be nice if it was indefinite. Would, love to TWRP my S5.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] aooga:
I see no reason why they should care. They flash back everything to stock again using Samsung software that resets everything.

[Fire TV General] retroben:
After I used terminal emulator with the pm disable function to disable both Gamecircle apps,Amazon Video,Photos (screensaver usage),and the Amazon AppStore,and resetting with ctrl+alt+del,I found a nice little surprise in the apps tab on the Home screen.

When I went to the Apps section,the list of all my installed apps appeared on the right!

When selecting them,they open immediately,but I can't long press to view the details of an app.

However,since they are still in the settings menu as well,I can still view the details from there.

The only issue with it is that it is a little buggy with scrolling through apps. :(

You can figure out the com-names using 7zipper 2.0 to view the advanced "details" of your apps.

To get the names to disable the same apps I did, change 7zipper's app list to system mode.

Info for people who really hate resource hogs:KFTV Launcher is currently using 80.59MB according to memory booster!

It probably has something to do with each menu selection loading dozens of images and information and sub-apps that seem to have no individual apps for selecting to disable.

So rbox,when you feel the Home Menu MOD is stable enough,please let me know when you release it for xposed.
[Fire TV General] rbox:
This has been known for some time. I think you found the secret that I hadn't been able to figure out; I bet it was disabling the Amazon Appstore. From what I remember, the initial reports were that sideloading the Appstore from Android caused this to happen. The code I haven't been able to find yet, must check for the Appstore and it's not there or the wrong one, it falls back to this grid view. At one point I was working on a mod that exposed (get it... cuz I use Xposed... haha) a similar, but less buggy grid. I may go back to working on that.

As for the menu mod, I just got the UI done for selecting which items should be visible, and I'm just working on the saving/loading of the preferences and getting the menu to reload after it's been changed.
