[Xperia Z1 Compact General] brian566:
I have posted before about the default white background colour on this phone which only lets you have a white background in Main applications Text / Dailer / Contacts / E-mail and Calendar with no ablity to change it even in themes

I have tried some third party apps overcome this on Dialer and text but you should not have to do this

I have just checked out the Z2 and even the Z3 Mini and its just the same .

Samsung and others give you the light or dark option.

So it looks like my only way is down the custom Rom

Unless any ideas and will custom rom do this

So come on Sony !!!!!!

Thanks just had a quick look seems a very comprehensive guide I did not realise that changing background colours was so complicated :confused:
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Pakman123:
For sony apps

open framework-res.apk with winrar (do not extract it) click on res look for drawable-xhdpi and extract it once the folder is on your pc open it and search for semc_bg_light.png edit the .png and then reopen framework-re.apk and go to res/drawable-xhdpi and drag semc_bg_light in to framework-res.apk/res/drawable-xhdpi

For android based apps you would need to decompile your framework-res.apk with bdfreaks apktool and navigate to res/drawable and edit background_holo_light.xml with notepad++ then recompile it

change the red to your color ( ffffff in both areas will make a white background )

i changed my background too look like this :D

[Google Chromecast] pedro5148:
I know Chromecast not play video files with DTS audio format, for example.

Is there any application I can do transcoding natively on my android ??
[Google Chromecast] primetechv2:
BubbleUPNP offloads some transcoding activities to your computer, so all you need is your phone and a laptop or desktop with the server running, and of course still full Internet access, with your computer and phone and Chromecast on the same server.
[Google Chromecast] pedro5148:
This solution I already knew but I'm not PC.
[Google Chromecast] preusstang:
The bubbleupnp server is a java program so you can run it on Mac or Linux.

---------- Post added at 07:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:20 PM ----------

In fact possibly even on your phone. Not sure that you can run native java programs in android tho.
[Google Chromecast] primetechv2:
Yes and no, Java compiles at a basically criminal level, but I'm guessing it won't be made for phones because they lack the power or certain processing components.

If you have time, convert the videos beforehand. There are a few apps like XDA's YouTube Downloader that have converters built in, so there might be more. Obviously because of the lack of power phones have, these cannot be run quickly enough to provide steaming capabilities....

Nature of the Chromecast beast. It is what it is.
[Google Chromecast] pedro5148:
Ok understood.

Currently I already convert using Bigasoft Total Converter program however I think the ideal would be Chromecast play these formats.

Given that this process is time consuming.

Will we one day he'll do it? or your hardware does not support?
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
Some mobile hardware does support DTS ( I think some Samsung products do)....

You don't really get any surround benefit from it but it does have codec support to render DTS Audio (in most cases downmixed into stereo.)

It is possible for Google to add DTS support as they recently added AC3 Passthru to the Sandbox....

I suspect it won't happen until they release the next Gen CCast (which appears to have a 5Ghz WiFi in it) so there are no bandwidth issues sending DTS so the CCast can Passthru the Audio stream.

The holdup will be licensing which may be cheaper to passthru than outright support. Google would have to do this licensing and give the sandbox access to it for 3rd party apps to take advantage of it.

Which could mean while you can send DTS without any transcoding, but the TV will still be required to support DTS (either fully or via downmix) or you may not get sound.

So far I haven't found many player apps that are capable of a decent transcode on the unit itself or uses the mobile device (and not a PC) to do transcode when needed.

So the only solution right now is to run a PC with Bubble or Plex server installed or Trasncode your media to H.264/AAC for use on the CCast with local device playback.

You will still get surround sound it just will be from a CCast compatible codec.

You will probably still need a PC to run the transcoding software needed and I suggest Handbrake (it's Free Open Source) to get the job done.

Wow !!! thanks for the explanation, as I have no personal computer, I have to convert my movies from the computer company where I work ... once again, thank you very much. !!

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SunDevil84:
At work the 4g LTE signal for ATT is very poor in the building, but we have 4g repeaters for ATT to fix this issue. Unfortunately, phones are stubborn and like to stay on 4g LTE despite having 1 bar of signal vs full signal with 4g. I had this same issue on my iphone 5 but was able to easily force off LTE while i was at work and have a steady, reliable data connection. My Note 4 seems to have the same affinity to wanting to be on 1 bar of LTE, but I cannot figure out a way to toggle / force LTE off and just use 4g. Anyone have any ideas? Anyone know of an application I can use to resolve this issue?

Thanks

I think I've sorted this out now. If I change LTE/GSM AUTO to WCDMA preferred it seems to immediately switch and hold onto 4G. I do have to change it back. Maybe I will write something so I can quick toggle this since nothing on the app store seems to work.

I wish that when I click the green dial button in my car kit it will launch Google now.

Has anyone done that?

Is it possible?
[General Questions and Answers] Mormel:
I hope it will be possible... I tried "Ok Google" and then everything stopped... and the phone seemed to freeze (except for when I pressed the back button and everything resumed)

Just like you (yes it was me that also replied to your post on the Parrot UK forum :P) I use the MKi9000... as you might have noticed, I wasn't very pleased with the (lack of) answer from Parrot... hope to hear from them soon.
[General Questions and Answers] eranyanay:
Hi Mormel,

Yes I figured it out, yet since of the big lack of help in Parrot forums i didnt bothered to update there, as I dont do it now (doing it here instead)

anyway, Once your parrot has no contacts it will instantiate google now voice recog., so you need to erase them.

The quickest is just reset the parrot - do long press on both scroller wheel + End key, it will do it.

then, never sync contacts ever again :)

Now when you press the green dial button, it will be google now.

the annoying thing is, atleast on my phone (xiaomi mi2 running KK), that I need to manually quit the google now, as next clicks will open it with the state it was before, with the search inside and wont start the voice recog. again.

I have done some research and enabled developer and disabled 'Stay Awake' (which wasn't ticked so i toggled it), ive also disabled the smart stay and the other option that's like that.

I bought the phone new, unbranded and unlocked so there are no 3rd party addons other than what comes with stock kit kat.

After Install NOTE 3 ROM COLOSSUS™ 5.0.0914 by RemZej & CMahendra for A116 I have this Problem.

I've tried looking around online and finding details on this error, and so far nothing that has been suggested has worked! Whenever I try to install larger apps, I get the "Couldn't install on USB storage or SD Card" error. I noticed this last night when trying to install Bloons TD5. After downloading and attempting to install it for a while, I'd get the above error. I then tried downloading a smaller app (Words) and that one worked with no problems. Went back to Bloons, same error. I then tried Monopoly since I know that's a bigger app too, but got the same error above.

The majority of fixes have said to unmount/remount the SD card, but I don't have the option to do that as there's no SD card in my device (MMX CHD A116). Both the USB and SD Card unmount options are dark/grayed out and unusable. Another forum said to search for an mnt folder, but that doesn't exist on my device. I tried searching within "internal storage" for the culprit file for most people (smdl2tmp1.asec) and it didn't find anything. This also isn't about me not having room - I've got 1.9 GB available. I've tried turning the device off and back on, and also searching in the Play Store's settings to see if maybe for some reason it was trying to save large files to the SD card, but couldn't find a relevant option. Does anyone else have any suggestions?
