[Samsung Gear S] Jeffruby:
Got my gear s and my note 4.

Great devices.

So- I have a few questions and can't seem to find answers.

1) when I'm connected via Bluetooth - all my calls from the gear appear to be made via my phone? Correct?

2) If Bluetooth and WiFi is on, and then I turn off Bluetooth on the watch-the two will pair with WiFi and have same situation as #1 above? Which is better? WiFi or Bluetooth if my statement is correct.

3) if I turn off WiFi and Bluetooth.... Can the phone and the watch interact? (via 3g/4g)? Or am I purely on the standalone phone?

4) if I leave the phone home (similar q to #3) I know I can forward my calls so my watch will ring when phone called. Also, the watch will ring when watch called. But- how can I get my text messages from my phone? Is it only possible to get texts sent to watch number?

Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Gear S] schettj:
1) yep

2) yep, or if you wander out of range of bt on phone, but still have wifi connection and phone is still on. BT uses less power, so it's preferred if available.

3) um. yes, basically uses 3G instead of wifi IF phone is still on.

4) as long as phone is on, it's the same as #3 above. If phone is off, then calls (and only calls) get forwarded to watch.
[Samsung Gear S] Jeffruby:
Thanks found my issue. Weak mobile signal at house. Can't connect remotely. Bummer.
[Samsung Gear S] Jeffruby:
if your connected to bt, and mobile network is on (on watch)... Does mobile network burn battery? Does the process use watches 3-/4g?
[Samsung Gear S] bisto321:
You can force the watch to dial using the internal sim always (I have done this) the option is under the call settings on the watch menu.

To sync watch and phone when they are separated from WiFi and bluetooth you need to make sure you have enabled the option to sync via your samsung account on the phone in gear manager - not sure if this is ticked by default

Regarding battery usage with mobile on - I have my mobile network switched on constantly (turned off the auto on/off function) and set to connect at 2G speeds only. I easily get 24hrs of use with this. The auto on/off function will enable or disable mobile network when required.

For 90% of the day I am connected using bluetooth. I have mine set to auto call forward when I am out of bluetooth range.
[General Questions and Answers] Spaceblow:
I have a rooted Nexus 5 and I flashed the factory image for Android Lollipop. I like the clean design but I don't really like the heads-up notifications. You know, the white pop up at the top that covers 25% of your screen. I'm trying out QKSMS and I see a little icon when I get a message, that's enough for me so I don't need an extra notification. It also sometimes pops up when I receive something from Facebook Messenger, but not always for some reason, which is also quite annoying. So is there any way to disable the heads-up notifications? Thanks in advance!
[General Questions and Answers] nummakayne:
Agreed. I prefer notifications to be discreet. I don't want the contents of private texts to pop-up onscreen if I'm showing something to a friend/co-worker. It would be nice to be able to choose between the Kitkat style of scrolling ticker text in the status bar and L's heads-up notifications. Or to turn them both off and simply have the app icon appear in the status bar, requiring a notification shade pull-down to view the contents.

Choice is good.
[General Questions and Answers] Mbennett156:
I dislike it because often I can't deal with the notification straight away, but still want it in the notification draw for later. With these heads up notifications (which I get for EvolveSMS) I can't get it out the way without it being completely dismissed, it's annoying.

This could be solved with simply adding the function that swiping up will send it to the notification draw
[General Questions and Answers] cmstlist:
Yeah I'm currently inclined to stick with KK until I know that the worst aspects of Lollipop can be controlled. Obviously in the absence of Xposed on ART it's difficult to make little tweaks here and there.

Heads-up is right at the top of my list. I have always liked how notifications NEVER attack my screen space in Android 2.0-4.4 and I'm not about to go along with a regression to iPhone-like behaviour. When I can disable it globally or on a per-app basis I'll be much more comfortable with the idea of upgrading.

My other biggest concern: The old Silent mode functionality was to allow user-configured audible alarms, while shutting off all other audible notifications and silencing all vibrations. The new modes, you have to choose between a None that also silences alarms, or a Priority mode that lets vibrations leak through.

It's kind of hilarious actually, this is the first time in history that I've been dragging my feet on an Android upgrade when all my less techie friends are upgrading. In the past I'd be proud to be the first one to upgrade and show it off to everyone stuck on the old version.
[General Questions and Answers] cmstlist:
So, a few weeks later... Are there any ROMs or mods that allow users to disable the heads up feature entirely across the board?
[General Questions and Answers] Spaceblow:
Yes and it's a great one.
[General Questions and Answers] cmstlist:
Good to know :)
[General Questions and Answers] Nubolosa:
I hate heads up, they are very intrusive, i prefer something more discreet...
[General Questions and Answers] MWFD:
I apololgize for bumping this old thread, but has there been any update with this? I'm looking for an SMS app that allows you to disable the heads up style pop-up notifications, but also allows you to reply from notifications. Textra and ChompSMS allow you to disable heads up notifications on Lollipop, but they dont allow you to reply from notification (like EvolveSMS, QKSMS). I'm looking for an app that incorporates both features. Any luck?
[General Questions and Answers] Jawomo:
With HeadsOff lollipop heads-up notifications can now be disabled!

No root needed.

You can also restore the ticker text in the statusbar!

[Sony Xperia M] imad283:
So today i was lookin for roms and found archidroid most convenient, so i tried to actually apply it to my phone, as long as i know my phone was rooted with a locked bootloader. it didn't turn out very well when i tried to install philz touch recovery thingy, my phone went to a bootloop, so i flashed a stock version of it someone had posted somewhere in the forum. I'm scared of doin anymore of that stuff on my own so could you guys guide me through it? i want to install archidroid on my phone q.q

xperia m 4.3 stock, i guess :D
[Sony Xperia M] Farsiris:
Just Flash the Archidroid 2.5.3 zip file in your phil touch recovery then after that the aroma installer will pop up . then select your rom settings ... I suggest you select archidroid kernel .then its done .wait for your phone to boot .
[Sony Xperia M] imad283:
the thing is that i don't have a recovery menu anymore, i'm not quite sure how to install it either..

like do i need root or an unlocked bootloader for it to be installed?

Oh never mind i just managed to flash it, thanks >.>

i just suck :D
[Sony Xperia M] Agu_Ra:
Unlocked bootloder is required. After you need to flash a custom kernel with recovery, boot into recovery, select install zip and choose zip with ArchiDroid.
[Sony Xperia M] imad283:
Do I unlock the bootloader with flashtool?
[Sony Xperia M] Agu_Ra:
You can unlock bootloader via Flashtool or via fastboot. You can find tutorial for it on Xperia M General Forum.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Xyzerb:
Hi all,

I'm running rooted 4.4.2 and would love to try CyanogenMod. Is it safe to give it a try? Or will the locked bootloader give me the dreaded "non-Verizon software" error?

I was able to root my phone using TowelRoot and verify root via Root Checker. From there, I headed over to get.cm and downloaded/installed OneClick.apk. However, when I open the CyanogenMod installer, it tells me that my device is not currently supported. I could touch continue and try my luck, but I'm not sure if that's a good idea.

Your thoughts?

[LG G2 Mini] steffenbakke:
First of all they have not released an exact date for the update. And by my experience LG releases updates pretty slow, this might not be the case here, but there is a chance. Also there is a difference between the LG UI in lollipop and the AOSP lollipop which this thread requested as it's the only one we could have right now... Also cm, isn't that bad at all, the vibrator and nfc needs to be fixed, but the camera isn't that bad by my experience plus there's a fix for the camera look through the cm thread to find it...

This was compiled by me from Sony's AOSP branch for the Z3 Compact. My bootloader is not unlocked so these have not been tested yet. Why no flashable zip? Before I go through the trouble of making one I want to make sure it at least boots. There has been no modifications what so ever.

If it boots then we can make it into a flashable zip.

instructions:

Have an unlocked bootloader

do a full back up or have a way to get back to stock in case something goes wrong

boot into recovery and do a factory reset

boot into fastboot

flash the images in fastboot

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash system system.img

flash Gapps (search xda for them)

reboot

pray it boots...

What works?

It boots...

Is anyone having an idea on how to handle the following:

- Start menu is opening and closing by itself, and

- after a while the device stops to respond to any input on the touchscreen, while other functionalities seem to be OK;

- neither a soft nor a hard reset help. The screen remains 'frozen' until... again difficult to say why, it recovers and then ...all over again as above.

thanks,

I had the same problem after about 2 weeks of use. Turn off, soft-reset, hard-reset didn't help at all. Leaving the phone off for couple hours helped but the problem occurred again. Very frustrating. I have contacted the HTC support but still haven't received any responses from them. I think it's the hardware problem.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] NeilM:
This is either a motherboard problem- it has occurred on some Trinity and Hermes devices and involves the screen controller chip; or it could be a problem with a screen protector (if fitted :) ) causing pressure around the edge of the screen

I had the same problem. Sent my device to HTC and they replaced the motherboard. When I got it back, I thought all is well.

Hi there,

After having used my Trinity for 4 weeks I am experiencing same problems of erratic behavior, the start menu is activating itself and as a consequence device is slowing down gradualy up to the point where it freezes. I tried, soft/hard resets, removing battery etc. but nothing seemed to work. I have not installed the screen protector yet, so I can rule out straight away the effect of the screen protector. First I thought it could be jog dia lwheel which might be faulty, then it crosses my mind that it could be some virus. I donwloaded some applications off the internet. Before I found this thread I was considering of deleting the ROM and replacing it with another one, but it seem that the issue is more of hardware origin rather than software related. What happend after you got it from the repair? Is it working now? Cheers.
