[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toyeboy:
Hello I have 4.5" screen HTC Desire 601 with Virgin mobile and they just released the HTC 816. I can get it currently on eBay for $219. But I'm wondering if the screen is a little too big for an everyday device? What do you guys think?I do like to play games though so that's a big benefit.

HTC Desire 601 (Zara_CL)
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oakleyguy89:
I upgraded from an LG volt and I'm very impressed with the screen and size of this phone. I think it's a perfect sized screen and don't let the 720p steer you away, this screen is sharp and beautiful!
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drummer1839:
Its not too big . I had alcatel 6030x 4,7'' and 816 is good for daily use.
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toyeboy:
If only Virginmobile would have released this instead of the HTC desire 4.5" ugh I could get it for what I paid for this phone.
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirrx7:
I like the size. It feels like its gonna work perfectly for me. The screen is beautiful (of course I still have the matte protector it came with since my tempered glass hasn't come in yet). Even the large bottom bezel doesn't bother me. The bezel really helps to balance out the look of the phone.

My few gripes... The FM radio app wasn't preinstalled. Luckily I did a little research and downloaded it from the play store. It's possible it would be installed after activation but I haven't activated yet.

Why include the dotview app if there is no case available yet AND the app doesn't even work. It just shows white dots no matter what background you choose. I wanted to make my own dotview case but without a working app why bother?
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FoxyDrew:
Personally, I have larger hands, and thing this phone is absolutely perfect. The button placement is a different story, but at least they're very tactile :D
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toyeboy:
How well do games like modern combat 5 run on here? It really lags on my HTC 601
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opt_step:
normal, no lags
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toyeboy:
Only other thing that's worrying me about this phone is the large screen in my pocket. I guess I'd have to get tempered glass..
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirrx7:
It seems like this is the only place that has other VM 816 users. All the other sites have forums for the device but no users.

Now a few question for all of you... I haven't activated the phone yet so I haven't received VM's update that includes their bloat and Boot animation. How much bloat does it include? All I've seen is their zone app in pictures. I imagine VM radio is also there?

Does the dotview app work for anyone or do we all just get white dots no matter what background you choose? I totally planned on making my own dot view case but obviously no app means no case.

Was the FM radio app included on the VM OTA after activation? I know it isn't there on stock before activation as I had to download the app from the Play Store.
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] germ.sws:
yes, the other sites are dead with no users in the forums.

here is a list of the "bloat" that i have on my activated 816 w/ VM, i do not know if this came before or after the VM update was sent to my phone. I have put a (d) next to the ones i have disabled because you cant delete them...

Luman Toolbar (d)

Scribble (d)

Flashlight (can be uninstalled)

HTC Backup (cant disable or uninstall)

HTC Dot View(cant disable or uninstall)

HTC Guide(cant disable or uninstall)

HTC Mobile Guide(d)

Media Share (cant uninstall)

Mobile ID (cant unistall)

Music (i think this is VM's app, cant disable or uninstall)

My Account (VM app, cant disable or uninstall)

Polaris Office 5 (cant uninstall)

Qualcomm IZat (cant disable or uninstall)

Tasks (cant disable or uninstall)

Voicemail (might be VM's app, cant disable or uninstall)

Zoe (cant uninstall)

*note that any other bloat that i could uninstall is gone, i think there was only 1 or 2 that i was able to fully uninstall and i believe the FM Radio was one of them.
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirrx7:
OK so the only ones that VM added were Lumen Toolbar and My Account. Not bad actually. Its a shame they added that adware Lumen Toolbar but at least they didn't totally weigh the phone down any more.

I'll probably be rooting this weekend. No real reason to but I always root my phones even if all I'll do is install ad away, root explorer, and get files to the SD. Hopefully we'll get some decent roms soon.
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] germ.sws:
There might have been a couple more since I had already deleted a couple before I made this post. I might even do a restore on the phone since I am having some battery drain problems. And I suspect an app is causing it .
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toyeboy:
Is there a root method for the Virgin Mobile version of this phone? Also is it Virgin Mobile considered a single-sim version?
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirrx7:
http://xdaforums.com/desire-816/general/guide-vm-htc-desire-816-root-how-to-t2862470

Its actually very easy. Follow the instructions and you'll be done in no time. You can even take a short cut if you want by downloading Kontrary's nandroid backup. I believe it's rooted, has the write protect mod installed, AND has XPosed installed.

Also note...

After you unlock, your phone gets wiped. I have no idea why but HTC decided NOT to make their flashlight and calculator app system apps so they get deleted during the wipe. I have links to the 2 apps in the above thread if you want to replace them afterwards. They're from the M8 since I haven't been able to find them for the 816 as our RUU hasn't been released by HTC yet.
[Paranoid Android Features Development] iwanttorunincircles:
Hi,

I would like to see the ability to disable the quick unlock feature.

I feel this is a security issue to have it enabled by default. Currently you could type however many PIN's/passwords you want and android will never log an invalid attempt.

Makes it too easy for those brute force robots.[emoji6]

Thanks
[Paranoid Android Features Development] Pirateghost:
Quick unlock shouldn't change the policy on login attempts

[Paranoid Android Features Development] iwanttorunincircles:
It does, as an attempt is only registered if you hit the enter/return key

[General Questions and Answers] stildawn:
Hi All

I hope I'm asking this in the right subforum.

Basically I have got a new Note3. And I'm after two widgets, don't know if they exist haha:

1. Picture Frame Widget

Basically the standard picture frame widget would work, as it displays a constant slideshow of pictures which is what I want, the issue is that I use QuickPic gallery app, and the standard picture frame widget opens the standard gallery app (which is terrible lol) when you touch it. I want a widget that I can determine which gallery app is opened when the widget is touched, so I can set it to open QuickPic instead.

2. Process List Widget

Real simple widget that just displays a list of the currently running processes, ideally there would be sorted by RAM used, and ideally it would have a kill tasks buttons, but I would be happy with just a list to be honest.

Thanks

Does nothing like these exist?
[Security Discussion] applefag:
As title suggests, coming from a so called "clean" iOS environment to Android, my main concern how susceptible is my data to being stolen. I have no (current) plans to root my next phone and will be used mainly from business, but from what I have read in the past even google play store apps have been to known to have malicious content. Am I worrying too much ? I do carry sensitive work data on my iPhone.
[Security Discussion] kalpetros:
As long as the apps you install are from known sources (i.e. Play Store) you don't need to worry. Also every time you download an app check the permissions. If you think that the app shouldn't have those permissions then don't download it. Finally for safety reasons never install any apps from unknown sources (i.e. outside of Play Store) unless you trust the developer.

If you still find yourself worrying read this.
[Security Discussion] Primokorn:
Yep :)

I think you won't install any app outside Google Play so install apps that you know and you won't need to worry. FYI http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Security-Enhanced_Linux

Well only if you are sure. Sometimes apps need permissions that aren't justified for some people.
[Security Discussion] SaffatBokul:
for the open nature of the android ecosystem, it is somewhat normal that you will have to be careful though there are several different techniques, i use this the most.

Root your phone, install xposed framework and install xprivacy. here is a review of what it does http://www.xda-developers.com/android/manage-individual-app-permissions-with-xprivacy/ . I know the installation pprocess may seem daunting, but it is easier than you think :) this module wil allow you to block apps of certain permission. IE. you can block location service for all the apps on your phone so that no app can get your location. There are bunch of other permissions that you can block like access to contact, gallery etc

My question to others is : Is antivirus application on android worth it? I mean can it protect me from real time attaks and malwares??
[Security Discussion] Primokorn:
Not useful IMO. FYI I remember this article.
[Security Discussion] snapper.fishes:
User sensibility is your best defense. Don't install apps not from the market. Only install apps with a lot of positive comments.

I would advise again rooting your phone. It's true that there are ways to block apps from accessing your private data on a rooted phone, but the additional vulnerability from unlocking your bootloader and rooting is not worth it. Just stick to apps from major developers.
[Security Discussion] DoctorLock:
I agree, rooting your phone comprimises your security even if you do it to install security apps.
[Security Discussion] oleg.derevenetz:
Unfortunately, new apps in Google Play are rarely verified by Google staff, so there is still always a possibility of trojan or other malware.

Being in the network business i am really disappointed in the way apple cripples wifi software usage with their products, particularly things like banning apps that scan frequency channels. On top of that my iPhone is terrible when trying to connect to WiFi networks, sometimes taking up to 5 minutes to connect when colleagues Android phone will see the SSID and connect straight away. Is this a known issue with android handsets and am I missing out on anything else thats prone to Android and WiFi ?

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] PhoeniXaC:
Hi at all,

I just installed [KTU84P][ROM][aw3som3]OmniROM ~ 04July2014 on my Pico and got a problem with my touch buttons. While "back" works fine, there is no reaction when I am using the home, menu and search buttons.

Is that problem known and what can I do to fix it? A fresh installation wasn't successfull.

Thank you in advance!
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] syedbilal093:
You have to edit the ROM manifest files in order to get your keys working. It requires a good Linux enrivonment. I suggest you to flash another ROM.
[General Topics] irimolsjik572:
First off, gonna start off saying that if this is against community guidelines, Moderators, please close this thread. I love XDA and would like to be notified if I'm doing something I'm not supposed to do.

DISCLAIMER

I didn't create Swing Copters. I am in no way affiliated with .GEARS. I'm not responsible for anything that happens to your device. You changed the score. Not me.

Alright, after all that stuffs outta the way, let's move on.

You need to be rooted, and you need a file manager with root capabilities. You also need a high score of at least 1.

Step 1: Using your favorite file manager, go to the root of your internal storage, /.

Step 2: Navigate to /data/data/com.dotgears.swing

Step 3: Go to shared_prefs

Step 4: Open SwingCopters.xml, as a text file if prompted.

Step 5: Edit the line,

<int name="score value=*your score* />

And replace *your score* with any number you want under 999999999

Step 6: SAVE THE FILE :P

Step 7: If Swing Copters is in your recent apps, swipe it away.

Step 8: Open Swing Copters, die, and rejoice!

As far as I know, this is the first guide for doing this.

Also, this method can also be used for changing your Flappy Bird score. Pretty much everything's the same, except the file you're supposed to edit is

/data/data/com.dotgears.flappybird/shared_prefs/FlappyBird.xml

If you enjoyed this guide, please give a mere Thanks, that's all.

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] SethW:
After reading through the general Appradio Unchained thread for several hours, I've realized that Appradio in general is device specific in many ways. This became especially apparent after I tried using an Android device Pioneer lists as being compatible with Appradio to no avail. The Nexus 7, and the Nexus series in fact, is not listed as supported by Pioneer but the Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 have been confirmed compatbile by many users. Pioneer hasn't even updated their compatibility list in 27 months:

ARU > Rotation Locker checked, Start GPS Injector checked

Region setting: United States

N7 Bluetooth settings: Connected via phone and media

I then plugged in SlimPort adapter. On the home screen on the 4000NEX, the App button no longer had an X and touching it brought me to a new window, the Appradio window. After the BT connection reestablished itself with the new protocol, the N7 screen appeared on the 4000NEX!

Problems: The screen is very distorted. The y axis is reduced, making the image appear squashed.

Rotation locker doesn't seem to work, as the native rotation on the N7 is carried over to the 4000NEX; if the N7 is upside down, the 4000NEX displays the image right side up but inverts the touch input! Here's a video showing the issue:
