[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheLadWithHelp98:
I am currently using a samsung galaxy xcover 2 (GT-7710) and running Vanir Rom which is based on KitKat 4.4.4. I recently purchased chromecast and was unhappy when I could not cast my screen to the TV. Then I learned of the root app Mirror Enabler and I installed it and gave it root access. But when I went into the app I was told that my ROM was not supported due to there being no "audio_submix" file. After some research I found that a file must be added to system/lib/hw. Is there anyway I can just download the file and paste it there? Or is there a flashable zip file or even any other way to install this file on my phone. Thanks for you help.

Hello developers of Note 3 and Android

As everyone knows there is a great feature in LG called Knock Code and Knock On feature.

So it is an request that if any one can port this to our Note 3 to enhance the usabiity

I know about KNOCKER but that is not an option to Knock on feature, has used LG G2 for 6 month before I dropped the phone, really to be frank it is very easy to use one handed.

Thanks in advance

Hi you can use of this app

[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] rajnathr:
Thanks dear, But I have already mentioned about knockr as there are many people complaing about the battery and say that the screen use to be always on
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] speedyjay:
Knockr sucks!! Anything to do with the LG's ease of access won't work well on our phones because:

1. It promotes laziness

2. We already have many ways of turning on our screen.

3. The battery drain is just too immense!
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] bogdan1980:
Sammy use cheap butons, they broke in time, maybe in 3 - 6 month or more. I use Gravity screen.

[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] pixelsphotopro:
I've had the HTC One M8 for couple months and the double tap to unlock and other gestures were fantastic and where not battery draining. If you don't like these features it's ok but you don't need to be so negative and I'm sure many Note III owners would love theses features, more features=more fun
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] posedatull:
I really wouldnt mind the real knock code from LG on my N9005 :). I havent owned an lg but played with a few and it was fun, and I have the knock feature on my secondary phone, lumia 920 and i think it's quite useful. My skills are not advanced enough to help, but I can offer myself as a tester, my warranty covers everything, including knox tripped :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] j3hans:
There is a kernel that has this feature
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] posedatull:
It has this feature only if you manually turn off your screen and it will work to wake up your phone just in the first few seconds afterwards...not a fully fledged knock on code...
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] pixelsphotopro:
Which kernel? and is it good for Rogers Galaxy Note 3?

Thank you

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jstoner:
Hi

I will be passing on my company phone for someone else to use for couple of weeks, and I am having some privacy concerns about it. I have already transferred all images/videos from the phone's ext SD card, but now I am worried of how I can securely erase the data. I don't wanna buy a new SD card just for this, so I was wondering if there is any way to safely erase/destroy those data.

For starters, I got my self 'secure file deletion' from play store, which allows to wipe off selected data off the phone memory and the external card. Which I did. Images/videos are stored under:

/storage/extSdCard/DCIM/Camera

But after wiping those off, I realised that not all image/video data is cleaned off. The OS also stores thumbnails for those media. Surprisingly, those are stored in phone memory and location can't be changed:

/storage/sdcard0/DCIM/.thumbnails

In there, there are .JPGs (thumbnails) and a strange '.thumbdataXXXX' file. So, I use 'secure file deletion' to remove those as well. Funny thing is that even after erasing those, I can still see the thumbnails of the corresponding video/image (but when I select it, it says 'file not found' - which is expected, because its already been wiped). Nevertheless, my guess is that the thumbnails of those videos/images are also cached elsewhere. But where?

My question is - is that all there is to it? Is the OS storing any more related data in regard to images/videos that I need to wipe? Are those actions I have taken enough to give me peace of mind that my media are safely wiped off beyond recovery?

I found that the secure deletion apps are very few, most of them require root and most even don't work properly (e.g. files reappearing after wipe etc). There are some good ones like 'ishredder 3 pro' and 'clean master' that offer secure wipe options - but only for wiping off entire phone/card memory - which is not what I want here. Any more suggestions?

The phone is a non-rooted Samsung with 4.1.2 Android OS on it. I don't wanna root the phone and I don't want to wipe entire ext card - so any suggestions, please bear that in mind.

Makes me wondering why there isn't any build-in function to the OS for secure deletion of files? Sure it would be slower and not everyone would applaud it, but it could be enabled on demand e.g. via Developer Options...

ta!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jstoner:
I have also noticed, that ever since I started using 'secure file deletion', when I connect via USB to copy files from the extSD to the PC, I get "device not connected" errors every few files I copy. Then, I have to use 'enable usb debugging' (from Dev Options) in order to get the device to show up again.

Any thoughts on my initial queries will be most appreciated. Someone must have noticed those issues. Perhaps they are not specific to 4.1.2 but maybe other versions of the OS...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jstoner:
Just another observation regarding this. If I go into File Manager and nagivate to "/storage/extSdCard/DCIM/Camera" and then go back to Gallery, then the thumbs of videos that are already deleted don't show up. That's a workaround for refreshing the cache (without having to do a full restart).

Anyone noticed those issues, or is it just me???

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr. Fabulous:
Hello everyone,

Since I bought my S5 I'm very happy with it, except for the Samsung Keyboard. Coming from a HTC where I had CyanogenMod 10.2 and the keyboard which came with it, I miss that particular keyboard a lot. I just need the keyboard to undo its suggestion-correction after I type backspace after I just typed a non-existing word which was corrected by the keyboard.

So what I did, I tried a few keyboards from the Play Store... which could not satisfy me... Then I searched the web and this forum, found the Google Android keyboard, which came very close in fulfilling my needs, but it misses the feature to long-press a character to get the symbols like ? and !. Which I really like...

So I just opened a CM zip and found the LatinIME apk. --> copied it to my phone, installed it just by opening it and for some minutes I was VERY HAPPY!!!! ...Until I found that the gesture typing feature did not gave me any words. The swype-line-thingy is visible when you swype the keyboard, but no words come out.

On the forum I read about this and most likely I miss the decoder now. See the thread "guide-how-to-enable-googles-gesture-t2012628".

But next to the fact that I don't get it completely, it looks like it requires root to replace the existing file in System/Lib. (by the way, is that a folder on my phone, or a folder in the rom you flash on the phone?)

I need to keep the warranty on my S5, so rooting was not part of my plan... yet...

But I just cannot believe I'm the only one having this issue. And yet, there's no thread explaining me how I should do this. So... Could anyone please help me getting the answer?

How to enable the gesture typing decoder on a not-rooted stock rom (4.4.2).

Thanks!!!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
A pretty esoteric request. Nevertheless you identified a thread that spells out in detail how to copy the Google gesture decoder to your system. It's pretty straightforward so I don't know what you don't understand. You neglected to describe what part you didn't comprehend.

As the path is in the system directory, you will need root to make the changes. While you also neglected to tell us what S5 model you have, but provided that it isn't an Exynos model i.e. not a 900H, then you can root it without incrementing the Knox flag. Which means that you could revert root with no permanent evidence of having done so if necessary for a warranty claim.

So there seems to be no reason that you couldn't root your phone, install your gesture decoder and preserve your warranty. What appears to remain is that you need to do some reading to understand more about root, Knox and warranties.

.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr. Fabulous:
Thanks for your response. It's appreciated!!

Okay, maybe I need to explain, I'm still a noob when it comes to rooting phones and Samsung specific knox counter shizzle. I know how to flash a rom on my old HTC, but that's quite it... But I'm willing to learn!!

I already did a search on the forum and found information about the knox counter and towel root and all I need to know to root my device. But to be honest, it scares the sh*t out of me to root my phone, having some kind of unknown (probably very little) risk of braking my expensive device... :eek:

My phone is the Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900F. Sorry for not mention that in the first place.

Regarding the thread I mentioned. I now do understand the part that whenever I root my phone and replace the .so file in the system/lib folder (on my phone :) ), it might/should work.

I thought the thread was talking about including the file in the ROM (zip file) you flash (using recovery) whenever you want to "install" that ROM on your phone. I already checked the ROM zip file and saw the so file in the system/lib folder. And since flashing a ROM is not what I'm going to do I thought it wasn't the way to go for me.

Okay, now what I was hoping for:

Is it possible to get (or build??) the LatinIME apk including the correct .so file, in order to install it without the need to root my phone?

Basically like I did with the apk I took from the CM 11 ROM zip file and the google keyboard apk. I just installed those. And the google keyboard has the right decoder in it since the gesture typing works with that one... and I do get the part that the decoder is a google thingy, so it might not be legal to create an apk myself and share it online...? But is building the apk again an option?

And since this keyboard is absolutely brilliant, I figured I wouldn't be the first noob who had this wish... and some other smart guys already build this apk with the right so file in it...

Okay. I hope I cleared up my question a little.

Thank you in advance for the answer!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
If you don't want to root your phone that's fine. But then you don't get your gesture decoder. So pick one.

There is very little risk from rooting, but no one is going to tell you that it's foolproof or that there is zero risk. You could also have a meteorite land on your head or be hit by a bus when crossing the street. Does that keep you from crossing the street? Or do you accept a minimal risk and go ahead anyway? You have to decide how much risk you are going to accept and proceed from there.

I doubt anyone is going to build a Latin keyboard with a proprietary Google gesture decoder when it's so much simpler to copy the existing library or apk over to the system directory. But you can do an extended search to satisfy your curiosity if you wish. There is always a chance that someone did what you hope for.

Otherwise, you can use towel root and root your phone, et cetera. Or not, as you feel best. Not much else to say on the subject.

.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr. Fabulous:
.... good point....

So... Time for me to become an "expert" on rooting then! :fingers-crossed:

It's just... when I cross a street, I know that the traffic is not coming from above or behind... just left and right... and before I cross I check those... Rooting my phone using tools feels to me like crossing the street blindfolded, trusting your ears... Most of the time it goes right... ;)

Thanks for your help.

I'll place a post here when I'm done and happy typing with my keyboard. But that will take some time, since I'm pretty busy these days and I definitely need some more reading into this subject... ;)

Thanks.

Dear developers,

I installed meebo music player. The player uses background images as its skin. However, I want to replace these images with my own. I tried with Root Explorer. But the system does not allow me to copy the files to drawable folder of the app.

Can anyone tell me how to solve this? I want my wallpapers as skin. Please help.
[General Questions and Answers] -df-:
Decompile the app, change the background images to the ones you want (keeping the same file names) within the drawable folder for your phone (if they are using multiple density drawable) and recompile, but if it uses any of Google's services the certificate will be different and those parts will no longer work.

Open up the device and locate the ribbon feeder from the digitizer screen - it's about one inch to the left of the camera lens looking from the front with Samsung lettering at top. Lift the catch with spudger or finger nail and relocate the ribbon squarely and as far in as possible.
