app grid

Hello, I started using Halo launcher and I like it.

But I am wondering can make all app alphabetical list be like a grid, not list - a grid with some pages, like original Android launcher? Is the list only layout?
[Android Apps and Games] dan_mendes:
Brilliant! Just one more thing...

The launcher is awesome! I already try a lot of lauchers (I'm kind of addicted on trying launchers... Kkk) and hola is incredible.

Thw ability of being beauty's and fast really satisfied me.

In my opinion, the only thing that is missing is the capacity of remove apps and folders from home screen. This is very important to me actually.

Tks, hola for the win! :)

[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MoHuToP:
In my opinion, the quality of the I9301I beauty loud speaker is very good. It's better than my other phones like Galaxy S7500, Nokia 113, iPhone 1 and others. Overall points for this devace (Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo I9301I) is 9/10. It's worth it! :)
[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlewando:
u are right. the speaker of the 9301 has an ugly quality. sounds like a metal can rolling over the hill ... i don't know the quality of the 9300, but my old 9000 and 9001 speaker is much better than this one.

Bought a moto x gpe for a friend in Europe it does not European languages.

Anyway to add them ? I know its possible with the pm command but after firmware update he would have to do it again and i dont know if i can teach him.

I need to add Polish language any tips ?

Can you help?
[Moto X Q&A] XAlexander_AlexanderX:
Try this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wowapp.localemorepro . I just tried it and it worked.
[Moto X Q&A] patt2k:

Are you rooted?
[Moto X Q&A] XAlexander_AlexanderX:
Yeah.
[Moto X Q&A] patt2k:
This one isnt its xt1053 can you help me out with rooting it maybe ?

Question number 2 the verizon rom will work? And what about ota updates

Thanks
[Moto X Q&A] XAlexander_AlexanderX:
Its not recommended to use other carrier Roms because when ota time comes, your phone can get messed up. Is your boot loader unlocked ?
[Moto X Q&A] patt2k:
Not yet the phone is for a gift all i wanted was polish lang on it lol

The easiest guide I found to do it without root is this http://droider.eu/2013/07/22/morelocale-2-not-working-on-4-2-2-without-su-or-pm/ . Note I'm not responsible if you brick your device which probably won't happen.
[Moto X Q&A] patt2k:
I have done this before on samsung phones but after ota update for example it goes away. Thanks anyway :) i will do pm command anyway i guess
[Moto X Q&A] whatsitsnamenow:
Unlocked the bootloader and install the XT1052 European Firmware. That's what I did on my Moto X. I don't know if Polish is in there but there is a lot more than the 4 languages that it originally came with.
[Moto X Q&A] patt2k:
Just used morelocale2 it translated 50% of the phone lol meaning some menus are polish some english.

Any other locale app that does better job ? :D thanks.
[Moto X Q&A] patt2k:
Can you give me a tutorial? sorry I didn't root for very long time so I am noob all over again.

What about OTA updates does the EURO Firmware , will it be getting OTA's for "L" soon? thanks maN!

So Guys android 5.0 is here and i think most of u have tried it.So hows Battery performance on lollipop?
[Nexus 5 General] Clienterror:
I feel it's worse TBH. I've tried several different roms and revisions and it still seems to be worse. Maybe I'm just playing with my phone more but my SOT can't seem to break 4 hours and it usually can't go all day on a charge.
[Nexus 5 General] funky_snowman:
Same. My battery life definitely seems worse.
[Nexus 5 General] notowork:
I had better battery life on the developer Preview!!

this sucks

after removing Google Now and Google Fit, it has improved a bit, but still bad.
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
On some days it's pretty bad and on other days it isn't with pretty much the same setup... LOL
[Nexus 5 General] peeweew:
I accept the fact that battery has gotten worse with Lollipop, but I'm sure they'll fix this on the next release.

Chill~ :D
[Nexus 5 General] EternalAndroid:
Worse.
[Nexus 5 General] Crimso:
Developer Preview was significantly better than stick KK, final release the same as KK if not slightly worse. Was definitely expecting more from LP.
[Nexus 5 General] Prattham:
mine is definitely way way way better

I'm a heavy user and its better than KK
[Nexus 5 General] Beanchimp:
I had the dev preview and Battery life was better than KK

Now on final release battery life is 1% drain per minute if I dont use the phone (but I discovered exchange services and gmail had updated from the one from the apk's I installed on the dev preview

re built again last night and max is 4 hours again without using the phone

2nd rebuld I did not restore anything

KK could be a day or 2 with using the phone before needing a charge

---------- Post added at 07:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:12 AM ----------

Ok, here is my xperia z3 compact not been charged for at least a day, has all the same apps and is used about the same as the Nexus 5 (z3 running kitkat, with NO power saving features enabled) and actually has a lot more apps running than Lollipop

and this is the Nexus 5 with only the apps you can see listed as running apps that was from a full charge overnight

It has dropped another 4% since taking that pic
[Nexus 5 General] pgptheoriginal:
In my case, the standby time of my N5 (which is new, I got it back from a RMA a month ago, so its battery isn't worn) is much worse on Lollipop than Kitkat: it drops 5% battery in one night in airplane mode, while 4.4.4 barely dropped 1%. On the other hand, the battery life when using the phone is way better! Before updating, I always got less than 4h SoT; now I get past 4.30 without even activating the battery saver.

So I'm not voting at the moment.
[Nexus 5 General] cirian75:
Mine is better than KitKat, some random drain's, quick soft reset fixes it.
[Nexus 5 General] doctor_droid:
Battery has definitely taken a hit wid L. Clean flash where
[Nexus 5 General] dunjamon:
Mine's definitely better. I'm not a heavy user, but on KK I would need to charge during the day at work (usually afternoon time)...but now I can leave it till I get home.
[Nexus 5 General] Claghorn:
I don't charge my N5 overnight, instead I wait to come in to work where I have a Qi charger on my desk. Usually I see it sitting at about 95% when I put it on the charger at work after leaving it alone all night. This morning I see it at 65%. I have never had it drop that low in one night before android 5 showed up.

What is even more interesting is that the battery stats claim that basically no one has been using any battery power. The highest number is 3% for wifi with 2% and 1% for a few other things, so where the heck did the 35% of the battery charge go?
[Nexus 5 General] Sc0rp10:
I was in a similar situation as most people in this thread but currently I'm on my first discharge cycle on optipop rom with uber kernel and im on 4 hour screen on time with 20% to go.

I have google now off and location on and spent most of my time on wifi with avg cell signal.
[Nexus 5 General] e34v8:
I flashed the OTA manually and haven't done a factory reset, but the battery life is better than ever. 3 days and 9 hours, and 3.27 h screen on time. Brightness is set to auto.

[Nexus 5 General] kamajikaciya:
I have some random battery drain issues too. But I think the issues belongs to 3rd party apps. In the safe mode there's not any battery drain. The 3rd party apps aren't compatible with Lollipop yet. So the main issue is this apps. Now 'Im trying to uninstall and reinstall the apps to find which apps drain the battery in deep sleep. I think which apps has a "cancel deep sleep mode" permission may drain battery if it's not updated for Lollipop. It's just a guess though.
[Nexus 5 General] ralph78:
First my battery life was really bad. I couldn't figure it out. I decided to do full wipe and it helped a lot. Now the battery life is better than on kitkat.

[Nexus 5 General] AndrasLOHF:
I'm getting worse battery life than any ROM stock or not I've run on the phone. I had better battery life on the dev previews. I don't think I've broken 3 hours screen on time or mixed usage(screen time+music time)once since the official image came out. I've done 2 or 3 clean flashes of the image and had also tried the Nexus 5 Experience ROM. I've used it each time rooted. Last night I did another clean flash of the image locked the bootloader and am going to try running it unrooted for a day or so with only 4 or 5 user apps installed. It shouldn't make a difference but I'm going to see what happens.
[Nexus 5 General] Version_3:
I've had to disable Google Now and Wifi scanning to get parity with 4.4.4 battery life.
[Nexus 5 General] tebore:
I'm starting to think the OS isn't the problem for battery life.

It's the Google Play service. Each version of Google Play service brings erratic battery life.

The less Google services used (thus less GPS is called) the better the battery life.

I really enjoy Google Now but it's a real battery killer.
[Nexus 5 General] imtiax:
Battery life sucks. I could go the whole day (12-15 hours) without having to charge my phone.

After Lollipop I drop 15% in less than 1.5 hours.

I'm trying to side load the OTA for Lollipop using adb and the files available from Google. My device is unlocked and rooted.

I run the commands to sideload the zip file and everything seems to be working fine until I get this:

I've cleared the cache partition but to no avail.

Does anyone have any insight or am I going to have to wipe everything?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skullpuck:
Well I went ahead and did a Flash Stock + Unroot and now it's worse. No error messages. Just the android with the red triangle exclamation mark.

I'm getting fed up with this crap. Every time there is an OTA I have to jump through hoops to get it running again.

Anyone have clues about what to do now?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3DSammy:
If you already flashed stock and lost you user data plus can still get into the bootloader, then I suggest using a factory image to upgrade to Lollipop. I've ignored OTA's and have been applying the factory image for a while.

Not in this case but for next time, with the aid of root, a custom recovery to make a nandroid backup, Titanium backups for apps and user data. Prior to applying a factory image save a copy of the Titanium Backup directory, the nandroid backup plus any sundry files that were not backed up to a OTG SDCard (an OTG cable plus USB SDCared reader), getting back to your specific set up is not all that complicated. Plus you get to "spring clean" any old cruft that has built up wasting internal storage.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veepee78:
I had system partition full after L update. I did it with factory image. I had to remove some apps from system to get adaway, busybox and so on working.

How to get more system space??
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3DSammy:
Deleting apps from /system is the only option that I've heard of. You cannot change the /system partition size even if you have spare internal storage. If you're rooted then this sounds worse than it is because there is plenty of apps you likely do not use (e.g. some of the google apps like news). You're also unlikely to use some of the foreign language apps. Even some of the main Google aps get updated out side of /system making the the /system apks redundant.

Without even trying hard I removed 86MBs worth then installed all I wanted (e.g. busybox, Viper4Android ... etc) and still have 54Mg free. So I could have left a lot of apps installed but I'd never use them anyway.

You can delete /system apks if your rooted with a number of different apps:

- Titanium Backup

- A Root enabled file manager like ES File Explorer

- My personal favourite System app remover (ROOT)

Lots of options.

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Restola:
Make sure you enable tap and pay inside the wallet app. Also you can tap whenever you could normally swipe. Some machines make you wait until the cashier starts ringing up an order, but you never need to wait for them to hit credit first or anything. The tap is identical to a card swipe in action.

It's a bit faster if you unlock your phone and the wallet app first, otherwise you have to tap twice (the first one activates the wallet app asking you to enter your wallet pin on your phone, the second tap transmits the data).

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wtherrell:
I have never had an Android phone that would charge from car's USB. Never knew whether it was the phone or the car. I can play music from USB thumb drives or some phones through the car's USB port. Always have to use the 12v charger. If your i Phone did, you might see if a "Charge Only " cable would work. That cable is a good thing to have, regardless.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dinosaur1:
Can you send a link ? I wouldn't mind buying one.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jt3:
All android phones determine whether a charger is a wall charger or a computer by whether or not the two center USB pins are shorted. If they are, then it's a wall charger, and will show "Charging (AC)" in the battery screen. Wall chargers designed for iOS devices work differently, and as such most of them will only charge Android devices at 500mA, which is the the same as a computer's USB ports, regardless of the marked amperage. In other words, a 2A charger designed for iOS will still charge Android devices at 500mA.

"Charge Only" cables are also an issue. Many of them don't actually have center pins at all. Android considers this an "open." In a "short," the resistance is zero Ohms. In an "open," the resistance is infinity Ohms. (Infinity, being the exact opposite of zero.) So, a lot of charge only cables will cause your android device to charge at 500mA.

The solution is to ensure that your charger is designed for Android. Or, buy a charge only cable designed for android. Or, buy an adapter that turns any cable into a charge only cable designed for android.

Yes, I know that's all really confusing. Here's the real deal. Find a charger and cable that works for sure (oh, I don't know... like, the one that came with the device!). Plug it in, and go to the battery screen. Ensure it says "Charging (AC)". Once that's a given, replace the cable with any other cable that you want to use. If it still says "Charging (AC)," then it's a good charging cable. If it says "Charging (USB)," then it's not a good charging cable. If you ever plug a known good charging cable into a charger, and get the dreaded "Charging (USB)," then you know your charger isn't Android compatible, making it a bad charger.

So, the TL;DR of it all: Use the original charger to test cables. Use the cables that pass that test to test chargers. Other than that, it's a crapshoot.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dinosaur1:
Yes I'm using the cable that came with my N6 to plug it into the built in USB port. I have a 2014 4Runner with the Entune system.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jt3:
Most "built in" car USB ports are 500mA, so will show as USB chargers (not AC chargers). Those that are higher (1A or 2A), tend to be designed for iOS devices (so will STILL show as USB chargers, unless you get a cable or adapter that has the two center pins shorted). I've yet to see a built-in car USB slot that will charge an Android device in AC mode.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dinosaur1:
That's what I thought. Could you recommend what charger I could use to plug in to using the cable that came with the N6?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jt3:
That's a very hard question to answer. Chargers tend to advertise iOS compatibility, but do NOT tend to advertise Android compatibility. However, they often do advertise a specific android device. So, for example, you might find a car charger that advertises compatibility with the Samsung S5. As long as it's advertising compatibility with any Android device, it should work with YOUR Android device. Just be aware that most manufacturers don't understand the whole AC vs USB thing, so even if they advertise compatibility, it's not ensured. Just be sure to buy chargers where you can take them back for a refund if they end up not showing up as working in AC mode for your device.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dinosaur1:
Sounds like I need to search for chargers for my N6 to plug in my 12v.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jt3:
Someone just posted this in another thread. It's a car charger that supposedly supports Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0, so it'd be the equivalent of the Moto Turbo Charger for a car. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00P9UILUM/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_0fvAub0VPYE9B

Since that's an Android thing, it'd almost be certain to work for all Android devices.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dinosaur1:
Should I even attempt to try an adapter first?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jt3:
Normally, I'd say yes, but in this case, since you have an N6, nothing is going to compare to having a Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 compatible charger.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dinosaur1:
Thanks. I'll definitely have to buy one asap.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dinosaur1:
Stay away from a charge only cable as well?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jt3:
Another hard question. There are two types of "charge only" cables. One that has the middle two (data) pins shorted together, and one where they're just missing (even though the pins themselves may be there... they're not connected). The former would work fine. The latter wouldn't (or more specifically, it would work, but only show up as "Charging (USB)" in the battery monitor).

Determining which is which before purchase is virtually impossible. The only way to really tell is to try it with a known good (1A or higher) charger.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dinosaur1:
I'll stick with the Qualcomm car charger. By the way can it harm the phones battery over time if I constantly use the turbo charger at home and at work and the turbo charger in my car?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jt3:
Nope. They're designed to use that type of charger. Technically, rapid charging may decrease battery life, but you'll probably long since have moved on to a new phone by the time you'd have to worry about that. The only caveat is that you should NEVER start your car while the phone is plugged in (on ANY car charger). When you're starting your car, the 12V electrical system in your car can experience quite a large power surge, and that can transmit through the adapter and hurt your phone. The electrical system in your car is built to withstand that. Your phone isn't. Most (quality) car chargers will have a similar warning somewhere, since it's a pretty standard warning.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dinosaur1:
Personally would you go with the charger you listed above? Amazon also lists USB cables that my N6 came with which is model skn5004a. Should I stick with that type of USB cables for extra cables I carry while traveling, work and auto?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jt3:
Any micro USB cable will work just fine, as long as it's a data cable (all four pins are connected), or a charge-only cable designed for Android (the middle two pins shorted together). The cable that came with your phone is a data cable. Data cables are data cables. There is really no difference (assuming it's a quality cable). I wouldn't stress about getting the one that came with your phone. Just make sure it's a data cable, and you'll be fine. (If you're ordering a cable on its own, it's almost certain to be a data cable, unless otherwise noted. It's only when included with a charger that you really have to be wary.)
