[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SquidgyB:
How about people look at his thanks meter and check out the links in his signature etc before assuming he's spamming and "asking for your PIN"? :good:
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buell47:
Wow....this is a trust indicator for you?

A Ebay seller with 1000+ fake ratings is also a trusted person?

I will spend few years of my time on XDA, writing here and there, and later you'll give me your pin codes? ;)

Nope, not at all. I'll make an informed decision based on the information I have to hand, rather than make knee jerk commentary reactions on a post from a dev, on a dev forum, asking for testers.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozaghloul:
Why would your credit card pin be on the phone? Why would you think this recognized dev is trying to do anything other than test his app?

Work on your reading comprehension skills. He not only said what kind of app, he gave its name, and his signature links to the note 3 version of the app. What's wrong with you people today?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chefproll:
By having a look at the signature, I see that the poster likes brutality and violence.

So at least for me: A clear NO to testing any of his apps.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SquidgyB:
I'm not sure whether to :rolleyes:, :eek: or :crying:...

Personal opinions on the glorification of violence through stickman fighting aside, has anyone contacted him to test the app?

It seems like the functionality would be useful as an add on to the S-Pen, or as an S-Pen tool for if/when AOSP/CM roms start appearing.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dabbill:
If you want some one to test an app, it should be listed and noted in the body of the message. I should not have to do research to figure out what app they are looking to get tested, or try to hunt down what the app does. My reading comprehension skills are just fine. I am not going to dig through some ones signature to try and figure out what they are asking people to do for them. Now it is a good idea to have the stuff listed in their signature for people to stumble across it when they are making other posts on the forums, but it should not be expected for people to do that when they are specifically asking for testers.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SquidgyB:
Granted, he could have been more informative in the OP, but there's just no need for "ERMAGHERD HE'S AFTER OUR PINS!" style posts.

Tell him what you need, what you think he should have asked for, ask him what he wants; converse with the man, rather than openly mocking him.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androiddecoded:
Hi,

I just installed Android 5.0 on nexus 5 and I am unable to install any app from unknown sources. What could be the reason? The install button seems to disabled.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sorcio91:
Have you checked "unknown sources" on security settings? For me it works... :confused:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androiddecoded:
Yes, obviously it is checked.

Do you use Lux or any sort of screen filtering app? I had this issue where the apps would look like they were installing but I couldn't click the "Install" button, only the "Cancel" button. If I disable Lux (the power button on the notification) I can click the "Install" button. For some reason having screen dimming is really screwing with that and the SuperSU app.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androiddecoded:
Oh true. I am using Lux. So this is what was causing this weird behaviour. I thought reinstalling helped. But this wasn't happening in 4.4? I think the app needs to be updated.

[Java for Android App Development] kumar935:
Hey guys, I'm an amateur at android development and this is my first app. I'm trying to make an app which you could basically think of like a book. It will consist of verses from a certain scripture one verse per screen, the screen will have the verse in it's original language "sanskrit", and these three things: 1 it's meaning in english, 2. it's meaning in hindi, and 3. the word meaning of each of the sanskrit words in hindi and english. I want these three things inside a tabhost.

Now the scripture has like 500 verses divided into 18 chapters. Each verse is like 10 words long. So there will be like 500 different views (if that's the right word for it... what I mean is 500 "screens" if that makes any sense) What I've done till now is, I made a sliding drawer that would take you to one of the 18 chapters. Now choosing one of the chapters will take you to a fragment, in which there will be a viewflipper, and it will consist of the verses in that chapter and a title page for that chapter which will consist of links to each of the verses. (I've done everything upto here there's just one sample chapter and 2 sample verses and it works fine) Also in the actionbar there will be a dropdown menu kind of thing clicking on which will give a list of verse numbers, and you can navigate to any verse from there. (I haven't done that yet)

So the thing is, 500 verses, 500 "views" (if i'm using that correctly) I don't know if that will make the device slow or what. I wanted to know am I using the right tools for it? Like the sliding drawer, fragment, tabhost, viewflipper? And the way I've structured the app, what do you feel about that? Will doing it differently could make it faster? I haven't had any problem yet with 1 chapter and 2 verses, I'm going to try adding a bunch of sample chapter and verses and see how it affects the performance. Still I just wanted to know ahead of time if I'm making any huge mistake in using one of the tools that I'm using.

I'd really really really appreciate if someone would take his/her time and give some valuable advice. Thanks in advance.

:confused::confused::confused:

EDIT: So initially I was planning to have minSdkVersion = "11" and targetSdkVersion = "21", but if that would be impossible due to the large number of verses, I might reconsider that. And I'm using Eclipse to code, and AVD (Android Virtual device) manager to test the app.

EDIT: Also, using maybe sqlite to get the verses (I've just heard a bit about it never used it), would that help?
[Java for Android App Development] F'n noob:
I'm just replying because I would like to know the same thing...
[Java for Android App Development] surlac:
It shouldn't make your app slow if you're managing View's lifecycle properly. Basically you need to make sure that you're reusing views instead of creating new ones, same thing for Fragments (take a look at android.support.v4.app.FragmentStatePagerAdapter).
[Java for Android App Development] kumar935:
Okay so you mean when one navigates to a view it should not create a new view but it should reuse the existing ones? I actually made the sliding drawer (which navigates to the chapters) from a tutorial titled "android sliding menu using navigation drawer" (can't post links since me a newbie here :(), I hope they managed View's lifecycle properly. And I'm using ViewFlipper to navigate between verses in individual chapters. So I hope that would be okay.

And I haven't used Sqlite but I vaguely know what it does. Will using that to extract the verses from a database then displaying them be of any help? Would it make the app any faster?

Thanks a lot for your help man, really appreciate it. :good::good:

Just give it a try, man. You will never know till you have it tried. Implement, test, improve. Don't be a victim of premature optimization . Good luck!

[General Questions and Answers] davebo:
Firstly, what's happening with the forum on Asus models? I can't see any folders for the Zinc or Graphite (not sure what the codenames would be Marss II for Zinc).

Secondly, anyone got any idea what the Zinc case is like ? I've just lost my Minis S (Wizard) case and I won't replace it if the Zinc one is any good. If not, I'll get one that should fit both now.

AdvThanksance, DBo.

and since xda == o2 dont use HTC devices anymore

the name may be a bit misleading

I thought this was an xda developers forum though, not an HTC forum.

I can undersatnd if it is diverging people might not want to go down that route, but I thought it was a community for xda developers of all persuasions.

Ho hum.
[General Questions and Answers] Rudegar:
diff manufactors do things very different when it comes to upgrading and such

so now that xda's can be any flavour of OEM and not just htc

[X 2014 Accessories] Shadowdancer123:
So I noticed the wireless QI receivers have started becoming literally paper thin lately.

And with this girls teardown, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dweww9_RF2E#t=224

I think it looks like you could remove the thin plastic over the battery, and fit a QI receiver there.

Thoughts?
[X 2014 Accessories] Legacystar:
we wouldn't be able to remove that plastic piece because it hold the battery, but it is stil possible. i already did recon on some places to solder in a wireless charger.
[X 2014 Accessories] Shadowdancer123:
Curious, but I'm looking at the flat cable that just lies there, under the M-logo. It doesn't appear to have any PCB at the end?

I wonder if they were thinking about adding a QI coil there, but decided it was too expensive?
[X 2014 Accessories] Legacystar:
That's my theory since the nexus 6 has wireless and they are the same chassis essentially . or it was for a fingerprint scanner they abandoned. Once we see a nexus 6 teardown we will have a better idea if we can do it.
[X 2014 Accessories] kamikass:
Been waiting for that...
[X 2014 Accessories] gotzaDroid:
Could have sworn I read somewhere that between they cable and a teardown of the software showing code for a fingerprint scanner, the original idea was to have the scanner. I could be wrong though.
[X 2014 Accessories] Shadowdancer123:
Let's hope you're wrong then. ;)

It would be really cool to have wireless charging, shame so few manufacturers add this.

The amount of stuff needed to make the coils on the receiving end is pretty limited, I could absolutely accept buying the transmitter separately, (like the turbo charger is now)

But I suspect the patent royalties are expensive, patents sure don't benefit users..
[X 2014 Accessories] bleys121:
Wireless charging

Anyone able to confirm if this is possible after the nexus 6 tearnever down?
[X 2014 Accessories] Legacystar:
Looks like the nexus 6 has a different config then the moto x so as far as a plug and play solution, no. I have located 2 contact locations where we could solder in a qi coil. I'm just trying to work up the courage to try it lol
[X 2014 Accessories] nexus15:
Here is a related question: without modding the phone itself on the 2013 and 2014 model I cant get one of the QI receivers to work. This is the one for sale on eBay / amazon / newegg with a micro usb end to plug into the micro usb port. It literally works with every other micro usb device i own including a Samsung bluetooth headset, several phones and some other stuff i cant think of at the moment... On the moto x 2013 and 14 I literally see no charge and see it actively loose charge over time with this device plugged in.
[X 2014 Accessories] de_annere:
It may be tricky with the moto x. There are some negative and some positive reviews here for example: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/cr/B00MN3RR7Q/s=sd/ref=mw_dp_cr

There are also some reviews saying they needed to restart the device once while on the charger: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/review/B00H7FJX7M/R2YPDLOU1BD4QE/ref=mw_dp_cr?cursor=2&sort=rd

You can find more of those comments on the internet. Could you try that, and if it works clarify if you need to restart it every time you want to charge or every time you connect something else?

Here is another link for the original moto x: http://www.reddit.com/r/MotoX/comments/2gskxw/original_moto_x_wireless_charging_mod_qi/

Edit: you may need a screen lock, e.g. the pattern lock.

Well chaps, bad news. I don't think this is going to be possible. I spent 6 hours today trying various solder points. Couldn't get any of them to actually charge the battery. Seems to be some sort of system configuration thats interfering with how its detecting .
[X 2014 Accessories] romracer:
Did you look at /sys/module/msm_otg/parameters/floated_charger_enable? It might not be enabled. Here's a similar thread for the Moto G:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2688276 (see the update at the top)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2601628 (thread for the app, not sure it works on X2 but you can check manually through ADB for the above /sys path).

As far as I know, wireless charging won't work without a pattern lock or having that option set. My Moto X won't be here until next week so I can't do any testing until then.
[X 2014 Accessories] Legacystar:
I tried pattern lock, didn't help. Wireless charging does not require a lock, my girlfriend has a droid maxx and wireless works without it.

As far as the module check, I don't have root on Verizon so I wouldn't be able to test it.
[X 2014 Accessories] romracer:
You are correct about wireless charging in general. I think the reason the pattern lock is suggested is because the wireless mod (even without internally mounting it) only provides 2 wires on the USB connector. Something about only having 2 wires, and not the data pins, is why the locking is suggested.

No worries on the module, just something I had seen while investigating. I don't know if the Maxx supported wireless charging out of the box, but it may have the flag enabled by default (that flag seems common among many Moto devices).

I'm coming from a Nexus 5 and I'll really miss wireless charging, hence my questions to you :)
[X 2014 Accessories] Legacystar:
The Maxx has it built in from moto, same internals as the moto x essentially. If we get root I could look at the module thing. I was lucky that I had access to a spare moto x main board so I didn't have to solder on mine. That won't be the case in the future.

I'm going to post all the points I tried so maybe someone can figure this out. I was able to get it to show charging but only right after reboot and it would stop once I took it off and replaced it. I have to emphasize it showed charging but never actually charged the battery, it would show charging in battery stats bit not in the status bar. I also use battery monitor widget to check the current and it never showed positive charge current. Once I was able to get it to details at as a USB charge, only happened once, still didn't charge though.

This all makes me think there is something screwy going on.
[X 2014 Accessories] romracer:
I ordered a Pure Edition (Cyber Monday deal was a great one) so if nothing else I'll have root to poke around. Pictures of where you tried would definitely be helpful. I think I saw some from you in another thread, but all in one place would make searching easier :)

A 5V near the USB port would be ideal because then we'd know its likely feeding into the battery or charge circuit. 5V elsewhere on the board may not be wired to the battery. Looking at the photos in that Moto G thread may give you an idea on where to poke around with a multimeter.

The charging after a reboot, and until you picked it up, sounds like maybe you did have it at one point. That whole "until you pick it up" is another thing mentioned by many in those Moto G threads.

What wireless charging receiver did you use (not your base station)? The one I ordered says "up to 1000mAh" but I had seen some at 500 or 650. A lower output rating may not be enough to charge the battery at all. One way to test this would be a very low output wall charger (one that puts out 500mAh for example) and see if the X shows charging when connected to that.

On a related note, how hard is it to disassemble the X? Some of the teardowns look like it could be a pain.
[X 2014 Accessories] Legacystar:
i've attache da picture of the points i used and the results are as follows.

1. shows 5v when plugged in. when wireless coil is attached to it, will power the phone up without the battery connected (doesn't boot, just shows a battery on screen)

2. pretty much exactly the same as spot 1

3. shows 5volts but doesn't power the phone

4. shows 5v but doesn't power the phone

5. you can't see it in the picture because the rubber cover for the usb port is on but there is a diode right behind the usb port. this one is the only port i was able to get it to say usb charging ONCE. other then that, acts the same as 1 and 2.

again i have to emphasize that even though they show charging initially, they never actually charge the battery.

I'm using a galaxy s3 qi insert 700ma. i think there is a mislabeling on some qi pads saying 1000ma but not considering the 30% loss in inductive charging. even ones with 1000 on them tend to charge around 650ma. some label including the loss.

As far as teardown it's not too complicated to get the back off, lots of adhesive so be careful to not bend the back cover. i have leather so that was a particular hassle as i didn't want creases in the leather. after that there are 17 screws to remove. i've included a picture of the ones you need to remove. the ones around the silver ring on the "moto" logo don't need to be removed along with the silver screw for the buttons.

after you remove the screws and disconnect the buttons and battery from the board the back battery plate comes off in one piece. one of the particularly hard parts about testing points is you can't turn the phone on because the power button is part of the battery plate. also when you put the battery plate back on and you have wires running to contact points it won't fit because there is a speaker "box" that sections off that circuitry. i combated this by using copper tape to essentially make my own tiny custom circuit pathways leading out of that box where i then could attach wires and run them up through the hole that the battery connector goes.

THIS IS NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikhoss:
Hi,

I flashed yesterday Android Lollipop on my N5 and I found out a "problem" for my use.

I am using some applications like llama, lux and UP which have persistent (or ongoing, I don't know the exact term) notifications (to be not killed I presume). My issue here is that these notifactions are displayed on my lockscreen and it is taking space for nothing.

Before I was using "slidelock", which is a lockscreen app and these persistent notifs were not displayed on the lockscreen but were still on the status bar.

Is there a way to have the same behavior?

I saw this: http://android.stackexchange.com/qu...ent-notifications-on-lollipop-lockscreen?rq=1

but it completely removes the notification on the status bar, so I am not sure the app is still running.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rakaus:
In the settings under Sound & notification, you can block notifications under App notifications. Just go to the persisting app and turn the slider off.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikhoss:
Thanks but it is quite the same solution given in my link.

I wanted to know if there is a way to keep these persistent notifications in the status bar but not displaying them in the lockscreen.

In your solution, I am not sure that the apps are still running.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reoryn:
One of the options you have for the Lock screen is to hide "Sensitive" notifications. If you turn that on, and then go into the Notification settings and set the apps in question as "Sensitive", they should still come up in the status bar, but not in the lock screen I think :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikhoss:
Already done that and it doesn't behave the way I would like.. :(

Thanks anyway for your help.

I think it is just impossible to keep an app in the status bar and not displaying it in the lockscreen.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reoryn:
Hm :( I'd like to do the same with Tasker. Shame.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikhoss:
I noticed something: Light Flow (LED notification manager) and google Now have both some kind of persistent notifications but they are not showing up in the lockscreen but they are still there when you are pulling down the notifications tab.

So I searched in app's settings for llama and lux, and both have settings like "persistent notification but no icon". I think this way, the app is not killed.
