[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jwhistler:
Just installed Lollipop and the Google Now Launcher, but the home screen layouts are all backwards...right down to the navigation buttons at the bottom.

To get to the Google Now page, I have to swipe all the way to the RIGHT.

The Nav buttons on the bottom are reversed compared to my Nexus 9. The Multitask button is on the left, Home button in the middle, and Back button is on the right.

I'm finding this rather annoying and wonder is this the default layout for the Nexus 7?? Is there a setting that I'm missing??

I find this rather bizarre!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enriquejones666:
You've got a right-to-left language selected (such as Hebrew), which reverses the entire screen. Go into "Settings->Language & Input->Language", and set it back to English(United States). If you already have that selected, try English(Canada).

---update---

Aha, I found it. There's a new setting in Lollipop under "Settings -> Developer Settings". There's a checkbox that says 'always make screen RTL (Right-To-Left), regardless of language'. Uncheck this box, and your screen will return back to normal.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jlobel:
I have a I545 verizon galaxy s4 and am thinking about throwing the google play edition version 4.4.4 on. However with 5.0 lollipop around the corner I wanted to make sure I could do an ota update easily since I am not very knowledgeable about performing updates myself. Anybody know if it will work as a ota update?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feraay:
Never
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Takenoko_:
[MENTION=4409181]feraay[/MENTION] is right. All the Google Edition ROMs available have been "tweaked", in order to make them work properly with the different variations of the Galaxy S4. So while you might be able to download the actual OTA update, it will not work properly with your device.

Though, installing updates manually is not particularly hard. You can use Titanium Backup to save your apps, and then download the update yourself once it's available for your S4 edition. That said, you might as well then just wait until 5.0 is out.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jlobel:
thanks and that makes sense. Shouldn't be too long from now for it to arrive. Unfortunately I have been hit with a terrible verizon update that makes my phone restart all the time and want to root and flash it, but with 5.0 coming out so soon I would rather do it once so i'll wait

Just got the final update and goodbye message from Mashup on my unit.... It is now officially gone for personal liability reasons as best as I can understand the message. That was my favorite App! I hope someone resurrects something very similar to it... RIP Mashup.... Sure loved that app!

On the other hand Popcorn-Time.... ( the one that's always worked and still does) just released and android apk for the program. Just installed it and although I haven't created a shortcut for it yet...( I have to run in form the applications section...where Llama is located) it is working great and has a beautiful layout for all the movies. You need a keyboard to make selections, but the films load quickly and play very well...)

I don't know if I can post links.....Mods please remove this if I can't, but it can be found here... https://popcorn-time.se/
[Fire TV General] DEREKTROTTER:
Therr are still plenty of good alternatives. Be careful with popcorn time as it uses public trackers i believe. Always use it with a VPN or proxy.
[Fire TV General] MrBravoHM:
bad news indeed

Not happy as only just bought my box and mashup seemed a really good source. Not least for the Thunder Cats episodes that where I there haha....awesome classic cartoon. I hope this doesn't start a trend in goodbyes as at a glance before istream not showing any kinda links either ?
[Fire TV General] nhumber:
its a bummer, Super TV was a nice recent addition.. bummer to see it go.
[Fire TV General] fxbill:
Genesis seems to be a decent alternative....and as far as Popcorn goes.... I agree. The best feature they have though is that when you play a movie it is stored in a temp folder and as soon as you close the program the temp folder is deleted so no traces are left for tracking. I would think that with as many end users as there are, more emphasis would be placed on stopping the source rather than end users. DTV went after end users years ago and were successful in scaring many people into paying up to several thousand dollars, having to subscribe to their top tier of service for 2 years and signing a waiver allowing them to come into your home unannounced at any time to check for unsubscribed devices. Those who actually got a lawyer to answer them went untouched since DTV had bigger fish to fry and were getting multitudes of uninformed people to go along with their scam. End users will be the last to go after as it requires more time and effort as well as money to try to make money from it. They'll try to shut down the source and if it's kept anyplace that the new millennium act has no jurisdiction over they'll be safe. I understand it's in Bulgaria, but could be wrong about that. Zona is another program hosted in Russia that is much like popcorn except that you have the choice of downloading or watching, or both. Sometimes the connections are not the best, but it's an excellent source.
[Fire TV General] spyder3:
A little sad to see MashUp go, but I honestly stopped using it and something else will fill its spot. I understand that HackerMils is already working on something. I'm a little leery of posting the better alternatives I use as I imagine the internet police probably find their targets from keyword searches.
[Fire TV General] Duvaris:
You can still use it. Someone made a fix for Mashup. Worked perfectly for me. I should also add, there is a link to the download on the youtube page. The errors looks to have been fixed as well. At least I'm not getting the error anymore.

MashUp fix

I got this from h**p://www dot husham dot com however the site is running real slow so I just copied his info to post here. You need to download the patched MashUp zip file and manually add it to XBMC.

once done your MashUp will work, however it will show a error saying it can't url something but that is because the Patch is blocking it from updating and deleting itself.

It still will work as it was before the error just pops up in the bottom corner and then goes away.

the link is to Mega share, enjoy.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Edje:
Recently I got my hands on an AT&T Samsung Galaxy S3. I just flashed Pacman rom and I have busybox installed. I've looked around XDA and other sites for help with this and all solutions haven't worked for me.

I am attempting to change my MAC address in order to join a network that uses MAC address filtering. If it helps, the network uses an Apple Airport Extreme to allow/disallow connections based on MAC address. I've tried Mac Address Ghost, Mac Spoof, Smile Jobs (I'm aware this is just an older version of Mac Address Ghost), and simply typing busybox commands in the terminal emulator. The phone is of course rooted.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I can supply any screenshots or other information that is needed, just ask!

I'm kind of new to Android in general (especially rooting, flashing roms, etc.) but not to technology, mobile or otherwise.

[General Questions and Answers] TheArc:
Hi [MENTION=6131818]bricktm7[/MENTION]

This is a protected section of the recovery. Ultimately if you delete the TWRP folder, the backups will be deleted from your device as I have done this before. But in previous times people often had access to the backups via a file manager. TWRP updated with this new mode where backups would be hidden in a file manager for security purposes and maybe to stop you from accidentally deleting them.

If you wish to see the files. You can turn on "Show hidden files and folders", this may show the backups (I am not %100 sure on this but you can try it). But if you wish to delete them. I recommend you go into Recovery Mode, and delete it from the Backup/Restore section.

If you have any other questions, feel free to ask and if you couldn't understand me - Let me know and I'll try to simplify it.

Smartdial on 8525

Hello everyone, Just upgraded my 8525 to the new 2.06 cingular rom but lost my smartdial option i had in the old 1.34. Anyone have the new smartdial and the 3d phone skin? thanks!

Lost smart dialer on 8525 with new rom

I did a rom update to the new AT&T rom and was pretty sure that smartdialer was working initially, but now I've completely lost the function and can't figure out how to get it back. I recently had a similiar problem after uninstalling some SPB unitheme dialer skins and when I contacted SPB they had me correct the problem with the following advice...."You should change "enabled" value from "0" to "1" in [HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin] registry key on your device". But now when I check this registry string I find that it is set to "1" and still doesn't work. Any suggestions on how to get smartdialer up and running again without a hard reset?

Some are having issues with new ROM and no smart dialer. I had no problems, but I also know that installing ETen Big Button Dialer (available at 8525software.com) disables Smart Dialer.

Also in the phone screen the right soft key has an option for the Smart Dialer, make sure it is turned on.

[LG Optimus G Pro] Snepsts:
Hello G Pro users.

So as some of you may know, I sort of have a little bit of experience compiling ROMs and kernels. It's not a lot, but it's enough to get something done. Anyways, I learned of an exciting new project started by some promising devs: http://www.venturerom.com/. This is hopefully going public soon, and I hope I can get it to work for our device (even though it'll be unofficial). AOSPA based and everything. It is aimed at battery life and features. All I have to say is WOW. It looks great :)

Any thoughts? I love Bliss, Beanstalk, Carbon, and PAC. But there is ALWAYS more room for ROMs on our device IMO.

Plus Carbon is currently going under L changes, so I cannot update that for a while, these guys are pushing for 4.4.4, which means solid working project! Yay!

If you haven't tried custom ROMs yet, or just AOSP for that matter, I highly suggest you give it a try. Best Android experience IMHO.

[LG Optimus G Pro] oVeRdOsE.:
Having multiple rom is cool, but in my opinion the best thing is having optimized popular rom such as slimrom.

Now our device is powerful enough to handle all roms and all market app for now.

Bun in 2-3 years, I think optimized rom will appreciated.

In example, lot of user still using HTC desire and desire Z, even with a stock 800mhz single processor and 512mb ram, because great dev port 4.4.4 rom in the proper way.

So, I'm new at this whole Rooting/flashing thing

My questions would be to just get some simple instructions on how to flash a new ROM over to my phone

And how to flash a new recovery over from CWM to TWRP from using odin

I see all these threads about bricking a device, so I am being overcautious lol.

honestly don't even know what I am doing, been trying to get more involved in this field, so i decided to take the leap and root the device!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lordcheeto03:
The how-to is pretty simple.

How-to: flash recovery - Find which recovery you wish to use. Follow flashing instructions in the recovery's OP.

How-to: flash a new ROM - Find which ROM you wish to use. Follow flashing instructions in the ROM's OP.

It's literally that simple, just make sure you follow the most important step. It's a step that isn't listed in any of the instructions. No matter how experienced you are or how many times you've flashed any number of devices (or lack of experience thereof).. That step would be reading. Read the first post especially. I know that some ROMs will have threads that are hundreds of pages long... I'm not saying read the whole thread, but at the very least read the first post, maybe the first few pages, then skip to the end and read the last few pages. In threads with many, many pages, the OP and the last few pages will be the ones relevant to the current version.

Use Q&A for questions. There's even a "Noob Friendly" thread for dumb questions (or ones you think might be dumb), and actually is a wealth of knowledge. Use the threads in the Development section for reporting problems (and steps to reproduce them, logcats, etc), providing solutions, and offering input.
