[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tropenfrucht:
I'm talking about the G2. Dont't know the Moto X.

If GPS don't matter for you I'd definitely recommend the G2. Great performance, great battery life. And a lot of different custom ROMs to choose from (LG Stock based, gflex ported, gpro ported, G3 ported and lots of AOSP)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] figgyfig:
Is there a GPS fix for the Sprint Note 3?

For some reason my GPS has not been able to get my exact location . It is always searching. I tried TopNTP app and other apps similar to it and it didn't work for me.﻿ I noticed that the GPS wasn't working properly after root, using Towelroot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] kaos420:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] figgyfig:
Thanks but that app didn't work. It showed all the satellites I could connect with, but it wasn't able to fix the issue. The app showed 17 satellites and I can't connect to 1.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] figgyfig:
Ok after further looking, my gps.conf file is not right. Also the gps.conf.bak is corrupted.

Any suggestions on getting these fixed?

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinsah:
Hi DEVs

Have someone tried to port the digital tv app found in Xperia Z2 (D6543) to Xperia Z1 (C6943)?

Xperia Z1 software runs buggy, in slow motion, some channels do not have audio layer, only captions/subtitles. In Z2 app, all channels run OK, although I didn't find any setup to turn on captions. The interface is cleaner, more reliable.

Any Brazilian in devs?

Thank you,

Alexandre

Will we be a key to use Google dialer with the G3. It's kit Kat and I thought that was a kit Kat feature..
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
Yes the google dialer works great. You must be rooted, and manually install the googledialer.apk into System/priv app, set permissions, reboot. Then you must create a shortcut to the app via a launcher (like nova) as the icon will not appear in your app drawer. I'm running it now, works great.
[Verizon LG G3] redone0505:
What version are you using? And link if you have one? Thanks
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
1.1 (the current)

[Verizon LG G3] droidkevlar:
Did you try and disable the stock dialer so you only have the google dialer?
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
No, and do not do that either, it will fail on the lg software. This is the only current method while running the stock rom and will probably be the only method.
[Verizon LG G3] redone0505:
Anything special you had to do? I've put the apk in the correct location and changed the permissions and rebooted and using Apex I try to use shortcut and nothing shows up. I just check App Manager and it's listed.

Update: Never mind got it working. Forgot to install.
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
Wtf, lg pulled the doodle option for writing on pictures! I used the phone

/ Com.android.dialer.dialactsactivity option under nova activities.
[Verizon LG G3] droidkevlar:
So just to confirm, this will only replace outgoing but incoming will use stock correct?
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
No, it just adds another dialer (with location search - nice) . Your in call action will remain lg.
[Verizon LG G3] droidkevlar:
Thanks. 1 last question...is there a way to turn the dialer into white? or do you have a link to an inverted version?
[Verizon LG G3] scooby-snack:
Hey Duck- Does the Google Dialer have the call blocking feature?
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
No. It's just the interface prior to pressing send (just like any playstore dialer). After that the lgTeleService.apk takes over...

The fundamental settings are still using the LG dialer...

Hi all,

I have just bought an XDA-neo from O2 , but a german version. Can someone tell me what i need to do to convert it into an english version. I have been told by O2 that this is not possible as i will loose alot the functionality (the Wifi, bluetooth, etc).

If it is possible to change can you please let me know how and where to get the software. As working withthe german version is being a nightmare.

I have even need to install a german version of Outlook as so that i can perform a backup of my data.

Thansk for your help
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] levenum:
Welcome to the forum.

All you need to know is here.

Any WWE (World Wide English) ROM will do (for your device of course).

The O2 people are lying to you because they don't want you messing with the device.

As long as you change to a tested ROM there should be no problems with WiFi BT etc.

But be careful!

Make sure all your data is backed up, your device is fully charged and that you read and understood the instructions fully before beginning.

Interrupted or incorrect ROM update will render your device unusable (brick)!

P.S.

This thread was posted twice please delete the redundant copy.

Also it is highly recommended to check the WiKi an search the forum before posting.

Face face palm

You really wonder why Amazon does not want an external Sd card ? The company a media company that also has cloud storage has interest in protecting copyrighted material, and that makes a business out of selling movies and music, and obviously they don't want you sideloading large amounts of your own media. Ect. Plus they've saved a few cents in manufacturing costs and get exactly what they want out of the device. You haveing use their storage and streaming... I don't know how many people that come in here thinking this is a regular tablet it is not. it is a Amazon media sales tool. And they have worked very hard to keep it that way, otherwise we would not be in these locked up predicaments.

Perhaps it's that camera problem on custom kernels....

There is a solution on boeffla kernel thread....

Install stock kernel zip (I think it is available at one of the last pages of boeffla kernel thread)

After the boot, go and take pictures with the camera, them after some minutes verify the folders on system data/cfw, there will be a file, which is the camera file... now backup that file in your sdcard... and everytime you install a custom rom just put this file inside the data/cfw......

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
If you're running a recent CM based or aosp ROM you've most likely encountered some pretty severe battery drain from Google Play Services (or Android OS as it sometimes shows up as). Below is a procedure that will halt the battery drain, but will not affect the running of your device.

Enter Privacy Guard through Settings/Security or Settings/Privacy, then click Advanced or Show Built-In Apps (depending on which ROM you're running). From here you can select Google Play Services and deny the Wake Up, Keep Awake, and Auto-Start options. This should drastically reduce the amount of battery that Google Play Services and Android OS consume.

Please note: I've removed the second part of this guide as it seems to be causing problems for some users, it was unnecessary 99% of the time anyway.

Quick question - are the Android Tuner and System Tuner settings necessary at all ? did you try this (both on the One X and the OPO) with just the Privacy Guard settings change ?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
I don't have my OPO yet, I've tried just the Privacy Guard component but it didn't yield enough of a result, so I believe the Android Tuner and System Tuner components are necessary to properly reduce the battery drain.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] qwertyaas:
When I only used the built in privacy settings it didn't do much, but oddly once I set system tuner and Uninstalled the app, I don't see Play Services under battery at all.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sandys1:
if I uninstall the apps, then I lose the settings that the apps have set. [MENTION=4153349]timmaaa[/MENTION] - can you confirm that we cant install android tuner and system tuner, AFTER we have done your changes.

Secondly, I'm getting a few Play Store force-closes after I did these changes. Can you let us know *exactly* which things did you change ?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
You can't uninstall the apps, they're the only thing that's reining in Google Play Services. I've had zero issues with any Google services after making the changes. This method disallows Google location reporting, it disallows Play Services waking the device and keeping it awake, and it also disallows Google from gathering information for targeted advertising.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sandys1:

Android Tuner -> Sidebar Menu -> Apps Manager -> Application Startups gets you to the same options as System Tuner.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Quasar_88:
Thank you for your useful post! The changes with App Ops have noticeable positive impact on battery life. I only had 2-3 crashes of Google Play Services after those changes. If those crashes happen again, I will switch options one by one to default to check what crashes Google Play Services. :)

___

EDIT: Google Play Services crashed because Auto Start was disabled. I enabled it again and now it's OK. Additional impact had switching off of "Location reporting" in Settings -> Location. That provides Google with continuous updates on your location, which triggers an *alarm* that wakes up the device even if Google Play Services is denied of accessing your location. Crucial impact had switching off "Wake up" and "Stay awake" for Facebook in App Ops and then greenifying it (I know it's not related to Google Play Services, but whoever is interested in preserving the battery with App Ops would make use of noting this, but be advised - you lose notification updates from Facebook).

---------- Post added at 11:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:51 AM ----------

Hey, for apps I don't use that often and don't mind 'not' getting notifications on, is it safe to deny "keep awake" as well as "location?" I don't know very much about wake locks but want to save some battery life. I've tried "Deep Sleep" but even set at "light" it gave performance issues. Greenify didn't do much and the other apps on Play store (line CM) are way to intrusive or annoying. Appreciate the help.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Yeah you can deny whatever you want, and if they're not apps that need notifications then I don't see a problem with it.

Alright thanks. Lastly, I have RomToolbox Pro and just discovered in the App Mgr (under "advanced freeze" options) a very lengthy list of permissions that (which I assume are wakelocks...?) I already denied the "keep awake" option under AppOps and could see the individual permissions that were affected in the list, but I'm in uncharted waters here and need to do more l in this area before going further. Guess I'll search wakelocks in XDA for info. Thanks for your help.

[Moto X Q&A] rdar_93:
Greetings everybody, I'm coming from a pretty old device which is the HTC Amaze 4G. This was a daily driver for me, and I'm looking for a new phone to upgrade to, and I've been really excited about the Moto X since I stumbled upon a youtube video that was posted last year by MKBHD explaining the Moto X and it's hardware and software's pros and cons.

Now, ALMOST everything is screaming "BUY ME" on this device (well, to me).

The all day battery life

Breathing notifs

The sheer efficiency of the computing system

Size

Display

Literally, almost everything makes me want to buy this phone.

The only legit concern I have is if the camera is as bad as all the people and photos say it is.

Now I get that it's a 10mp clearpixel camera, and that the updated camera software offers a slight improvement on the colour and sharpness.....

But I haven't really heard anything after that.

Is it still bad? Is it something that many people learnt to live with?

I know that this post is long, but I'd like to thank everyone who took the time to read this and offer an answer.

Your help is appreciated greatly.
