Hey Devolopers This is the official htc file manager thread :)

It was taken from The Android 4.4.3 OTA for HTC One M8 which has been extracted as an APK and can be further installed on any supported Android devices.

Link ;)

The Biggest thing Not tha apk file ,

Can any Devoloper make it a flashable zip file so it can be installed from a custom recovery to the ROM to be a pre-installed app of the rom so that when we do a hard reset to the device we won't lose it and be a system app?

Don't need help guys :D , I made a flashable zip file of it so it will be system app (can't be uninstall it even you wiped your data :good: I will upload it soon in the Attached Files ;)

File Browser stop unexpectedly

hi mido3366 or anyone else able to help - i'm new at this :)

I bought a HTC One M8sw off Ebay - it came from China. I can see based on the settings and using Root Checker Basic that it has been rooted and customised and I have SuperSU app showing up. Thus, I have a File manager installed which probably does not come as stock with the mobile? The file manager works fine. Issue is that, when I'm in the stock MAIL app and i try to attach a file by clicking on File or click on Document/PDF or Office Document - I get the following error:

------------------------------

Sorry!

File Browser has stopped unexpectedly.

-----------------------------------

I have gone through all the trouble shooting with HTC including clearing cache and data, rebooting, safe mode for 24 hours, deleting and re-adding email accounts, but still does not work. They have told me now that i need to a factory reset and see if this fixes it ... but i prefer not to do that as I don't want to remove all the amazing customisation which came with the phone.:D

Can you please let me know if there's anything i could do to fix this issue without going back to a factory reset?

Note: I'm not a techie ... so have limited to any knowledge on how to root, check root etc. :)

As you already know or at least ive come to find out is that currently flashing NH7 is a disaster for note 3 boost users so reverting back to NC5 was my way back from not having a working phone thanks in part to threads and posts and many thanks to certain individuals who are do credit i am just here to regurgitate for those looking for a solution. but anyways i want to say the names of those individuals that helped me but then if i miss names that have also helped then it would not be fair so i wont name names but they know who they are.

Does the NC5 radio work for boost?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rbebber:
What did you do to get 0n 4.4.4.? Can you please list your steps? Thanks!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] E-POUND:
No the NC5 Modem doesn't work for boost. How did u get the 4.4.4 update to work for boost?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] J_apa_n:
I did a "dirty" flash.

you get the update without the baseband.

Its honestly more trouble than what its worth, It will reboot 3-5 times before it loads.

I noticed when I flashed the nh7 baseband in odin, that it also loads some sort of apn update.

if you restore the original meid to the device, you will get a signal.

this leads me to believe we need to go back to the Evo days & change the NVItems
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] E-POUND:
But it does finally boot up when u update the ROM? Does everything work on the old modems?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] J_apa_n:
Everything runs smoothly, still no wifi calling.

Every time you reboot your phone, it will have the 3-5 reboots before it starts.

make a backup & test it out, I'd like to hear your results.

I'm on it as soon as I get a chance.

sorry I just seen this.

are you still having 3g issues?

Also, I've found an interesting anomaly with the modem issue.

after the MJ baseband, all the newer modems flash APNHLOS to our phones.

not sure just yet what it does, or how its attached to the MEID, but that's my find.

Any ideas?

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] homestar1994:
So about 6 months ago, I decided to finally try out some custom roms on my t999 after running stock for over a year. I tried a couple of roms and stuck with cm11. Every thing was great until about 3 weeks ago. Out of nowhere, my phone randomly decides to drop connection to tmo towers. Sometimes i have bars and 4g symbol and sometimes i don't have anything. When I pull the battery and restart, I am able to connect to data, make calls, and send messages for a few minutes, but then i lose everything. Randomly throughout the day, I will get signal back for a few minutes but thats it. I flashed a touchwiz rom for now so I can use wifi calling, So that still works.

So I tried to flash a different baseband modem from DocHoliday77 and none of them worked. I also tried going back to stock following DocHoliday77s guide once again, but for some reason that does not work. I launch odin3.07, put my stock firmware in the pda section, make sure only auto reboot and F reset time are checked. I connect my phone in download mode, it is detected and i start the process. The phone restarts but gets stuck at the samsung logo screen. I have tried flashing different roms and none work.

I dont think its an imei problem because I got the phone direct form tmo with a contract.

Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong? ANY help would be greatly appreciated.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
Did you factory reset after you flashed the firmware in Odin? That's the only way it will boot coming from cm.. You may just need a new sim if flashing to stock won't fix it.. And BTW T-Mobile doesn't do contracts

[Sony Cross-Device General] donedos:
[MENTION=6010634]Geeks Empire[/MENTION]

Can small app use intent to open an activity class? and can you add the method wherein the state of the small app will not change when the screen orientation changes. thanks.!!:good:
[Sony Cross-Device General] Geeks Empire:
Info

SmallApp are defined as Service & when u want to open Activity from outside of Activity you need to set NEW_TASK Flag

Intent i= new Intent(Small.this, Activity.class);
i.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(i);

and here is where you can handle configuration when Screen Orientation changed...

Override
public boolean onSmallAppConfigurationChanged(android.content.res.Configuration newConfig){
super.onSmallAppConfigurationChanged(newConfig);

return false;
}

Good Luck

Thanks for the awesome guide!

Just a small question, I'm not able to create layouts nor create an app with SmallApp Support, It says " configure SDK ", even though I have configured it, After setting Compile SDK to Google API 23 it works, When it's Small App API, it's not working .

What's the solution ? .
[Sony Cross-Device General] hansip87:
you need to import the com.sony.smallapp.jar that Sony gives with the Android SDK add-on into the project, and only then you can compile it with Android 23 SDK. Keep in mind that, On the Order and Export tab (on Eclipse) you shouldn't check the jar though, since it will run from the system, not embedded from the jar Sony gives, since it's just a stub jar.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Geeks Empire:
You Must set API 19.

That is the Android Version for Latest Sony SDK.

Then IF you need Some features from API23 you can use Supported Libraries.

Import Sony.SmallApp Lib is Not Stable Enough and Straight Forward.

Good Luck

:good:
[Sony Cross-Device General] abo hani:

[Sony Cross-Device General] abo hani:
I felt really bad about leaving Small App behind from X Series, and thought about making a SDK for small app.

I've searched, and found the best one which is StandOut, tried to modify it but still some stuff :

- Responsive width/height changing .

- Menu functions / topbar functions .

- Small Icon (when you drag it to the right side to minimize it) .

What about working on sdk for it and making it available for Xperia X series ? and other devices too, it's like porting Small Apps to latest Xperia and non Xperia devices?

That would be a good idea.

EDIT :

One of the best libraries i went through, is : https://github.com/txusballesteros/bubbles-for-android

It has a really nice animation, but it lacks onClick + adding a view like Facebook chat head

BUT

this : https://github.com/flipkart-incubator/springy-heads

has the same animations ( kinda ) and you can display a layout with onClick, but it's not as an Overlay, you can't open it outside the activity.

1. Awesome, no onClick .

2. Good, with everything, but not as overlay :D .
[Sony Cross-Device General] Geeks Empire:
Info

I think Sony removed SmallApps because of Android Multi Window feature that is available on Android N and Also Free Style Window (Floating View) maybe in next Android. So they removed Sony Small App Framework. All of these are because Android Security Issue that mentioned in last Google IO in Security Section.

Anyway I already changed all my Small Apps to Floating Apps with All Extra Security Check Point and Also Wrote Tutorial for All Devs How To Create Floating Apps.

About StandOut Library It is not that Good. It is Just Adding Views to FrameLayout provided in StandOutWindow class on system_window_decorators.xml.

I already have solution for these and used in my Apps Like Camera, Keep Note, Shortcuts.

Final Thought

If you want to create Floating Framework for Android (Or All OS) I am in Cause Why Note! ;)

+ If don't start this Framework I actually had plan to do it

Contact me by Email to Discuss more.

I'd love to work on a project like that, as i really missed Small Apps from my Xperia X, i used to use Camera Small App / quick launcher / calculator .. Etc

Now, i'm waiting for 7.0.

But here's the problem, a lot of devices could "taste" Sony Small Apps if "we" can make a "ported" api like Small App framework, and i've already ideas how to make the launcher and the design, also the included methods.

But the problem, it's my first time working in such a field like this [emoji14] .

What i want is, port the apps with our own Api for all devices, from JB to MM, For 7.0 we need to wait .

If you're serious in this topic, please let me know, i'd love to work on this :D

13I find myself with a few phones handed down to me, and I am often in areas where there in no mobile phone network available,

I am curious as to weather or not these Android phones (on which I have gained root access) could be perhaps booted to a system that allows communication directly between the phones instead of via the non available mobile network.

If I remember correctly, an article I read some years ago described an open source project designed to offer telecommunications using the transceiver in each phone to create a network for areas that had no other available network.

If anyone could point me to some information on the above described network, or just using these as "walkie talkies" I would very much appreciate it.

I was not able to find much in the way of relevant information, but Wikipedia says,

Nothing in this seems to be what I am looking for.
