Hi

First foray into android dev. I downloaded "android studio with android sdk for Windows." Naturally, it did not come with the sdk. After much googling, I downloaded the sdk and got all the necessary components and finally was able to build a FOSS project.

Great! I ran it and selected virtual device, nexus 7 tablet. First I got an error, no such device. Fixed it by adding ANDROID_SDK_HOME environmental variable. Then ran it and got no error, but there is nothing showing on the screen either. No window other than the IDE. No indication of anything happening. It's a web browser (Lightning) so there should be something. Any suggestion appreciated.

So, here's the deal: I was playing around with Link2SD and one of the features they have is to turn an app into a system app, so I decided to get rid of that old ugly launcher that my phone has and use Holo launcher as the default launcher. Right after I've done that everything was working right until the launcher started causing some problems so I uninstalled it hoping that it will get back to my stock launcher, which I had also uninstalled. So now every time I boot up my phone there's just that black screen showing. I can only access the notification bar and that's it. Can anyone help me fix it please?
[XDA Assist] Perseus:
you may try to logon to Google Play website with the same Google Account that's logged into the phone and hit install on another launcher there. With luck, that would get pushed to your phone if your phone has a Data Signal or is connected to WiFi.

Otherwise You may post in [Ask Any Question][Newbie Friendly] to see if one of the experts may be of help.
[XDA Assist] Freuddydy:
I tried but the phone won't log in to my google account. I tried to reset and set things up again and it still doesn't work
[XDA Assist] Perseus:
In that case post in the thread I had linked. You'd need to flash Stock firmware or sideload the launcher APK

Thread Closed. Thank you.

All changes in detail

===============

Changes in v1.04:

* replaced Korean Font (3 Glyphs) with Courier New 10
* adjusted listview column widths
* corrected typo: GGSM_PIT_VIWER_v1.03 => GGSM_PIT_VIWER_v1.03
* partition_id changed from 8 to 2 digits (since there will be probably not ever more than 255 partitions)
* In the first line (magic= count= ap_vendor=...) used tabs instead of a space as separator

[Other SmartWatches] philw007:
Another U series watch from Uwatch. Supposed to be upgrade from U8. Seems to use same software/apk.

Watch was working fine initially after installing the apk (first day)...could make and receive calls...notifications...

phonebook, camera never worked with my galaxy note 2

Now, everytime the watch connects via bluetooth, it connects at first (with apk connected notification), but then I see the goodbye screen (for a split second), and the screen goes dark...I then push button to "wake" watch and it goes thru the bluetooth connection process again...and disconnects. Seems like once the watch connects and sees the apk, the watch does a mini reboot (not like full powercycle where you get the sounds of the shutdown and restart).

If I connect the watch without the apk, it doesn't do this. If I uninstall and reinstall the apk, this happens again. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance for any help!
[Other SmartWatches] philw007:
Figured it out myself...with help of forums on the U8Pro.

Figured since the interfaces and watches are very similar...went to the U8Pro forum.

Unistalled the apk that the U10 has you install. Tried installing the bt.smartwatch (by rwatch) found on google play. Now works again. Still limited functions...but at least the notifications and receiving calls part works! Overall happy if this continues working for the price of about $55
[Other SmartWatches] panteryx_26:
Can you please tell me where these forums are ? i can't seem to find the website of this company.

Also do you have the USB drivers for the PC? I just got one and i'm actually satisfied with it for the price i paid.
[Other SmartWatches] GOLBSTAR:
You may want to try the U10 apk from the download ftp site. I've posted this to another U10 forum, "U10 U Watch Review - not a bad smartwatch". It's the latest version 7.1.3 of the apk and gives you the most features including camera with real time preview on watch screen - this feature is quite rare with other similar apps.

[XDA Assist] Perseus:
That's highly improbably and has extremely low chance of success. The primary reason is that the Stock Firmware of an S4 is very Samsung specific.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Themes and Apps] mmceorange:
I have an idea for a useful app/mod/xposed module that would allow the notification light to indicate notifications from multiple apps at the same time. For instance: I have a text message, which normally flashes white(ish), and then I get an email, which normally flashes red. With both notifications being present at the same time, instead of the light only flashing the color of the most recent notification (red in this case), it would flash white once, then red once, pause, then white, red, pause, etc. Three notifications would flash a sequence of the three respective colors.

Being able to customize the colors and timing per app is not necessarily important to me, but probably wouldn't be difficult at the already required level of control anyway, and I'm sure several people appreciate that option with current mods.

TL;DR

App/mod to make notification LED blink all active notifications instead of just most recent.

So, what do you all think?

If I had the programming knowledge and time, I would certainly write this myself and share, but I do not :(

Updated HikeOS 4.2 for BLU Sudio 5.3.ii

Kevin, Many thanks for providing not just one custom ROM for this phone but three!

I have choosen your HikeOS 4.2 as my favorite and here are some changes I have made:

1. I have added Email.apk, GalleryGoogle.apk and libcameracustom.so to get Email and working AutoFocus and non-crashing camera from a similar phone custom rom: HikeOS_JY-G3_Android_4.2.1_V3

2. Added Barcode Scanner from market to demonstate working AutoFocus.

3. Replaced bootanimation.zip with one that I like.

4. Removed GPS Status. The YGPS system apk that is designed for this phone gives faster locks. To get easy access to YGPS I have included QuickShortcutMaker and xShortcut free from market. First create a shortcut for YGPS with QuickShortcutMaker then create another shortcut for YGPS with xShortcut free with its Capture Shortcut mode. The xShortcut allows the YGPS run in back ground mode to work.

5. Added MT GPS from market to manually download EPO files every couple of weeks. I use the GPS EPO assistance mode for faster first time locks. I disable A-GPS mode to not use my mobile data.

6. I have modified SunBeam.apk to a Lockscreen wallpaper I like. To use launch Hike Themes and select Themes Style on the left with the Clock and apply.

7. For changable Lockscreen wallpaper I have moved theme SunBeam.apk from sytem to data/app directory to allow easy updating with APK editor that I have included from market. With APK editor "Select Apk from App" and scroll all the way to the bottom and select com.hike.them.SunBeam. Select "Resource". Select "drawable-hdpi" and scroll all the way to the bottom and select lock_wallpaper.png and replace with any 540 x 960 png or jpg file you want. Select Save then exit app. Your installable apk is in ApkEditor directory on your SD card. No need to reapply the Theme your change will take effect after installing.

Here is the link to the altered ROM:

Additional info

Thanks.

The YGPS shortcuts and MT GPS should work for any MediaTek MT6577 phone.

The LockScreen wallpaper method should work for any HikeOS that has the same BootLoop issue or that has disabled the custom wallpapers for the lockscreen.

The libcameracustom.so is a recommended AutoFocus fix for any MediaTek custom rom when the auto focus is not working.

Does anyone know if there is a way to install the dialer that searches? I believe I was told recently it is a Nexus only feature that allows you to search for a store/business by typing in the name of the business and it will show a list of addresses and phone numbers right from the dialer.

I have had it on my phones (sideloaded) in the past and I was hoping to see it on the L update, but no such luck.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] piskr:
Use Nexus L dialer. There are many sites to download it as: http://www.theandroidsoul.com/download-new-apps-apks-android-5-0-lollipop-preview-images/. But remember: the dialer indeed enable you to search sites but it is not a replacement for Moto phone functionality. So you must keep original phone.apk and dialer.apk in the system.

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] piskr:
In fact I have previous version of Moto x (2013) and I used various Nexus apps many times. I still have Nexus dialer even inverted and it works flawlessly. I believe that it could be installed on 2014 model too if it is compatible with lollipop.

I found the last version of dialer and tried it on my phone. It works and it should work on 2014 as well. I attached the zip. Try this:

Unzip the file and push it with appropriate explorer (as root explorer or similar) to the file where original dialer exist (mine is system/priv-apps). Change permissions to rw-r-r and reboot.

If your launcher supports activities find phone (new) and pin it to the home screen. Otherwise download Anycut form Google Play and find it in its activities.

If this method wouldn't work it means that there is no lollipop Google Phone apk available for downloading yet. It's just a question of time to get one.

In meantime and if you don't have rooted phone you can find a phone app which supports global contacts search. The most popular is CallApp (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.callapp.contacts).

I didn't. But if you had previous Google dialer working on Lollipop, do you expect significant improvements with 2.0?
