Hello Everybody

I need help with a problem on the Kuban Updater. I have always had this app but never used it until i figured out what it was from watching a video on it from youtube. So the problem is every time i open up the application it just says loading and after a while it just crashes the application. It does show a taskbar but when clicking anything this also causes the application to crash. Can anyone help me with this?

I am using the Samsung Galaxy S3 Sprint Version.

The rom i have is Wicked Sensations v5.0

The Kuban update says - Kuban Updater 2.0.0

Thanks, and have a good day.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
what is it supposed to do?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GrapesFTW:
Well i wont really go into depth as you can easily search up a video on it but in simple words, it helps you to fully customize your phone whether it be themes, extra widgets or just things to make everything easier. Also im pretty sure you can download many variations of the wicked sensations rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
im on Wicked X 7.2 right now but im gonna look into this app and see if it works on this Wicked Rom
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Evilone69tmg:
That app was abandoned on Wicked Sensations and changed to the My Hub app. Plus the app only works if the developer for the rom supports it's use. As all the extras are for that rom only.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
well thank you sir/madam :)

Yesterday night,i plugged my tab with charger and was trying new app called ios7 lockscreen. There were an option of brightness adjustment but when i increase my brightness, my display becomes black. When clicking power button screen display flickers...:eek:

My tab is rooted and i know much about hacking,custom roms,custom kernel etc... Please help me....

Before rooting & flashing CM11, Swiftkey had the original LG emojis (which looking fairly close to the iPhone ones). However, after switching over to CM11 they have turned into the ugly Samsung emojis that look like all cartoony and are hard to differentiate. Is there any way to revert this or to install different emoji? Thanks so much.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JewRican:
I had this issue where i sounded like a mouse and you could not understand what i was saying on the other end of a hangouts call. I tried everything to resolve it and it turned out to be the google now (search) settings ok google hotword detection allowing ok google to work from any screen. No clue why, as my sons galaxy nexus has the same setting and it works fine.

Just wanted to post in case anyone else ran into this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scrillakev:
I'm going to have to try this out. Me and my wife are having this same exact issue where I sound like a robot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dgmoodey:
I have the same problem, but still trying to figure out a solution :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JewRican:
so did you try disabling the setting that I posted?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MimKoRn:
workaround

But what if one wants to have the ok google functionality turned on? Isn't this issue/bug supposed to be addressed by samsung?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:

I started a whole other thread on this.

Is not just a Hangouts issue, but it's a Skype and any other video chat issue.

Are you guys on 4.4? This might be it, but since hot word detection on any page was a Kit Kat function.

I tried turning off Google Now, but but I didn't turn off the hot word on any page function. I'll try it and let you know if it's the issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ymDroid:
Thank you sir. After a week and a half of trouble shooting, you found the answer.

The problem is indeed, and Google Search's new "anytime /any screen" hotword section function..

Go to Google Search, Settings, Voice, Uncheck hotword detection from any screen.

Why this breaks the wifi audio when using a video chat service is a mystery.

I now realize that this wasn't an issue under 4.3, because Hotword detection from any screen is a Kitkat only feature.

I don't know if this a Samsung, possibly or Google Search issue. But I'll submit a ticket to Google under in the play store.

Hopefully, everyone else will too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] EMcTx:
I'm on the galaxy s4 from tmobile. I was also having this problem, but I turned off the hotword from any screen and it worked. I first noticed this trying to make a google voice call from hangouts, which is audio only, but it did it with video chats as well. I'll definitely report this.

Thanks for figuring it out!

I can also verify that this fix works. I'm going home for Thanksgiving & we wanted to set it up so the gf and stepson can video chat with me while I'm gone. She was trying to set it up on her PC & having issues, which I've never even tried.

I asked her why she didn't just use her phone like a normal person & she said she'd tried it with her mom & had the high pitched noise. We tried it & confirmed & a Google search brought me here.

I disabled hotword detection from any screen & it went away (she doesn't use it all the time like I do).

This is weird though, because this is the vzw s4 that I used to video with her on her s3 thriugh hangouts before & I've had Google now set to detect from any screen since I could.

Not that I think it matters, but her mom has an s5 & I assume she's got hotword detection off. I'm on the Note 4 & have it on with no issue.

I know the OP is a little old, but I'm wondering if the latest OTA for the s4 has something do to with it? I swear I videoed her from the s4 with detection on.

In any case, after my long rambling, thanks for posting the fix!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ymDroid:
Its strictly a kit Kat 4.4 issue. That Google has dropped a serious ball on. But they can care less now, since they are on to lollipop 5.0

Maybe it will be fixed in 5.0
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Deleted member 4366579:
Looks like the issue wasn't fixed in Lollipop either. I'm running Dan's GPE ROM, and I had to disable any-screen hotword detection to return the normal voice.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] seanvree:
So I've decided to download and install the new Google Launcher. The one problem I have is that it doesn't have count indicators on the SMS, E-mail, and phone Icons?!?! Is this by design? Anyway around this?

Thanks,
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] fffft:
Unfortunately you didn't link us to your launcher or give a version number, so we can't be sure. But it's probably by design. Not everyone wants to have in your face badges showing message counts.

You should do a search to see if anyone has a workaround. A search before posting is always a good idea. The message count indicators are called badges in IOS and notification or message count widgets in Android. What you are looking for is probably in the Play store. There are widget apps that do this for the Nova launcher e.g. TeslaUnread. You'd need to find an widget that is compatible with the launcher you're using. There is an app called Notifyer that may do what you want.

thanks.

HTC America won't help you... sorry!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] k4ffy:
seriously??? what do i need to do!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] goestoeleven:
Assuming you've got a TyTN, first call the reseller you bought the phone from. They should be able to help set this up for you. If your device needs service, it will be handled by HTC Europe, which means you'll have to ship it to Germany...

The only exception I can think of to this rule right now would be an 8525 purchased from Cingular (in which case you'd deal directly with Cingular for service).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] k4ffy:
unfortunately i bought it off of ebay. i'll try emailing HTC USA, maybe they can point me in the right direction. thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] goestoeleven:
Alas, this is the risk you take when buying from eBay... you're totally on your own...

Best of luck, but I can tell you others have tried only to be given the proverbial "deer in the headlights over the phone" -- "what's a TyTN..."

Yikes...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] k4ffy:
thanks. here's hoping for the best. i'll post my findings heh.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] dude64:
I have had the same problem, the only way to solve this problem is to go through HTC Europe as TyTn is intended for the European market, and take my word for it HTC UK is one of the most useless CS I've run into so far. Frankly speaking they are the reason i wouldn't be buying another ****y HTC device. Have had enough after Jamin and TyTn, seriously they are ripping people off. Try symbian for a change. Anyway I think if you know anyone in Europe, you can send them the device and they can take the device in to a service center and get a replacement for you. In my case my online vendor was helpful enough to get the device repaired. HTC America will simply tell you to contact HTC Europe.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdadevr:
Hi all, I am planning to buy Elephone P6i as a spare phone. I like the look and it is perfect size for me. I own few Chinese brand Android devices but I haven't bought an Elephone. Review of some Elephone devices looks good but again I haven't found any on this particular model. Please let me know if you found a good review about it.

My question is about the screen quality that I should expect from it. It is a 5" qHD (960 x 540) which is 220 PPI. I have a Nexus 7 2012 which has 216 PPI though it has higher resolution. Can I expect to see similar display on 5" qHD screen as in Nexus 7 2012?

I know it will depend on the hardware quality etc, but technically, should screen with similar PPI give the same display quality regardless the resolution? Thank you.

Samsungs stock camera app or Googles camera app?

Which do you use/prefer and why?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] BigBot96:
I personally have no issues with the stock Samsung camera app and it's got a great set of features.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] torr310:
Ditto! Also I found the stock camera is faster than other 3rd party cameras.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] J.Guido85:
Does the Samsung camera have 360 panorama?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] BigBot96:
double post...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] BigBot96:
Yep. See my attachment.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] kprice8:
It's a download though...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] BigBot96:
No its not. Select Mode on the main camera interface to the left of the shutter button. Then select panorama.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] kprice8:
That's why it required a download from the Samsung Store on mine? Perhaps, Check your device to see if it is pre-installed....would be a better way to say it.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] BigBot96:
My post wasn't meant to sound condescending and I apologize if it did. And yes that would be a more appropriate way of saying that.

But back on topic: I had the panorama feature right out of the box and after each clean flash. Its possible it was removed in the ROM you're using (if any).
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Serubin:
Any workarounds for DPI changes, the camera really freaks out if the DPI is different than stock
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] J.Guido85:
360 panorama is different from panorama.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] J.Guido85:
360 Panorama is pretty much photosphere.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Commies:
I see no need for anything other than the stock camera as it's fantastic to me.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Airstream25:
I agree that the stock camera app is good. I tried the Google Camera app but did not see how to make it save images to the SD card.

[T-Mobile LG G3] raaghul:
I am planning to root my G3 D851. I would to know what is the worst case scenario and will it be fixable?:confused: by the way I moved from iphone to G3. I have been jailbreaking my iphone for a while:D, but in iphone the worst case would be to just restore the device. I bit scared if android would be not fixable:eek:.

Main reason for rooting is removing bloatware and fixing heat issue when gaming.:D
[T-Mobile LG G3] BACARDILIMON:
Anything can happen watch videos online over at you tube
[T-Mobile LG G3] Harmtan2:
G3 has been the easiest root I've ever done. Once you get a Recovery on your phone most things are pretty fixable. You can always pop it in download mode and restore the stock files on it. Not always the easiest thing ever, but usually doable. I Soft Bricked my Galaxy S4 quite a bit and I boot looped the g3 already. Just had to do a reset.
[T-Mobile LG G3] raaghul:
I rooted by device and installed the custom recovery. What are the things should I do in it, especially for reducing the heat on my phone?
[T-Mobile LG G3] Naturesretard:
There's a fix in dialer to disable thermal monitoring...I guess its buggy? But unless your phone is super hot I wouldn't worry. A little heat isn't that bad.

Make sure you have SuperSU installed though
[T-Mobile LG G3] raaghul:
disabling that would not reduce heat, it increases heat lol. My phone get to 42 degree C battery temp.
[T-Mobile LG G3] emezrahi:
As everyone said, this is the easiest root i have done. The most important thing for you to do is read, read, read! Make sure to also read the problems people have been having in order to avoid them. In other words, dont just read the first & second post of the thread, read em all.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Harmtan2:
You could try putting something like trickster mod and under clocking the processor so that it doesn't heat up, turn the brightness down, or Greenify will kill apps so things aren't running in the background. Just some Suggestions.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Naturesretard:
Afaik, you need a kernel that supports uc or oc.
[T-Mobile LG G3] sn0warmy:
The 1st thing you should do now is go into recovery and perform a backup. Do this before anything else.

The 2nd thing you should do now is install something like Titanium Backup (worth the cost) and freeze any unnecessary apps such as any of the T-Mobile apps (except visual voicemail) and any carrierIQ related apps/services. There is a list around here somewhere of all the apps/services that are good to freeze to speed up the phone and remove bloat. Search around a bit. There are a few threads dedicated to debloating, increasing battery life, and increasing responsiveness.

After that, you may want to do some reading on xposed and g3 tweaksbox. It's really great and actually eliminated the desire to flash other ROMs for me. But before you go flashing/changing things, make sure you do plenty of reading first to ensure you do things right the first time.

As they say...

"Measure twice, cut once." <--- Live by this. Good luck and have fun! :highfive:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rgor:
Hi,

I had a question about autorotating the lockscreen on my s4

I have the latest 4.3 build rooted w/ towel root. I've confirmed that I have root.

I've installed Wanam and Samsung multiple widgets.

Is there a way that I can get this rooted phone's pin lockscreen to autorotate?

I would obviously like to do it in a way that will not trigger the knox void warranty and also be able

to go back to stock if need be.

It seemed to be working at 4.2 but with Verizon's latest update, it seems like the wanam module doesn't work.

Is there an alternative method? Any help, no matter how small would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

How can I get this navbar in this photo ?
[General Questions and Answers] bweN diorD:
i dont know the exact answer but,

it could be a custom rom and part of the rom script.

im sure if you were rooted and had the icons and knew which ones to switch, it could be done that way.

a more slim but possible way would be with an exposed module that allows custom nav bar icons. i dont know if that exist or not. i know there are some preset nav bar customizations.

hope that gives you some directions to look into anyways.

Has anyone had any luck finding an armband case for this phone? I've been hoping to find one to make running with the phone a bit easier. I have been shopping around here and there, and I keep running into the same complaints; someone with even average sized arms can't get it to fit correctly, the case caused sweaty water damage, it has a cheap arm band, holes don't line up, or it just plain doesn't fit. Anyone have any recommendations?

I got this one a couple months back. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A5UFOQU It's a bit big for the phone especially if you don't have a case on but it works fine for me. Not perfect but I can easily plug my headphones in, change the volume, use the screen, and it fits snug on my arm.

I bought this one off Amazon. the price was real cheap and it seems to fit the phone nicely. The velcro is strong and the armband adjusts to fit lots of sizes. It has a earphone hole at the bottom of the case too.

For $10 you cant go wrong. I use it almost daily so I ended up buying a second for the day when the first wears out.

Hope this helps!

So last night I left it on and battery drain wasn't terrible but I don't think it was good either. So I figured since I'm obviously not using it at night, I should turn the always on display off. Don't need it than so what's the point. Then I decided, why not disconnect it from my phone and than just tap the reconnect button in the morning. Wouldn't be an inconvenience at all either. So I'm sure having the display off will help, but not sure about the disconnecting part but still leaving the watch turned on. Anyway, just wanted to hear what you guys all do with your watch at night while you're not using it.

Mine easily lasts two days, really only on charge when battery is nearly dead. Sometimes on charge if I decide I'm not going to be wearing it for a bit and there is a charge close by.

Earlier this week, AT&T (United States) pushed an Android update to my phone - wonderful I thought. About halfway through the upgrade it hung-up literally for about 1-1/2 hours.

I had to reboot after making sure I was fully charged and voila! I owned a brick.

I *MAY* have rooted this phone about a year ago, but I'm not really sure.

I've downloaded 6 root image and restore files. Every time I try to download them to my phone, I get a "SW REV CHECK FAIL - FUSED 3 > binary 0" error. When I use Odin, I get a CRC failure.

HELP.

I need my phone to be a phone, not a brick.

Thanks all.

Was your phone rooted when you took the update? If it was, this may have caused the issue. I have an s3 from Bell Canada and I had to unroot it to get the installation to complete.

Which update was being installed? Do you have the 4.3 bootloader on your phone?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper67857:
The swrev failure is a protection measure to keep you from truly bricking it by downgrading the bootloader. You need to push a custom recovery via Odin (if you don't already have one installed) and use that to flash the modified 4.4.2 ota or custom rom of your choice. The ota is in the general section, custom ROMs are in the development section. Just make sure to read and follow the instructions on the rom installation.
