Hello...

I am trying to customize my (new) sony xpereia z2, (got it for waterproof), to as close as possible to a Galaxy note or tab, as far as it can go feature wise.

I already have a few floating apps:

-floating stickies-becomes complicated with too many stickies, swiping them to the side, it becomes (almost) impossible to find the one you want, needs a single view interface, for organized viewing/editing , as well along with the float feature.

-floating browser, and cobra - crashes with only 2 tabs, doesn't remember my websites.

-G-player - my floating window will not resize, pretty sure have gone through all the options in settings, it is stuck,

I am aware of xhalofloatingwindow and xmultiwindow.

- is the only difference between the two that halo floats and multi divides the screen in fixed way? or are there other differences in the two that I am missing...

- (also when people refer to 'halo', this is the same thing as 'xhalofloatingwindow', right? or is it different...)

- are these considered 'custom roms', or not bc only partial change..

- also TouchWiz... I have read that TouchWiz mimicking apps exist, and to look here, but I haven't found any names, thus far.

the features I want are: quick screenshot, and editing, and note taking next to the screenshot, in a logged/organized manner. I would buy a stylus too, if found if could find apps or roms that mimick the galaxy note.

I do like xperia's interface, lockscreen, homescreen editor set up, and buttons. It is not so much the interface that I am trying to change, but to get a few more features. but I would change the interface if that's the only way to do it.

another subject - copying images from web browser, (not saving them), this is impossible on android but have read with a custom rom (not sure which ones, all or only some?) it is possible.

also closing tabs in chrome. you have to close each one manually, obviously annoying, plus the fact that they all reopen if you just wait the program. which Roms (all or only some) can help this...?

please advise if you can ...

Thank you for any advice ....

Installation Partition

Hi, i have downloaded the TWRP Manager and attempting to install the twrp recovery onto my phone.

It has a prompt to ask me if the install partition /dev/block/platoform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery is correct. Can i know if this is the correct installation location for SM-G900F Devices for TWRP?

Please advise.

Which latest TWRP works for the S5 ?

On the first post of http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2697762 at "The goods" the recovery-twrp-klte.img there dates from 2014-Apr-19 and no version number with it.

Offical TWRP at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2727406 has version 2.8.4.0 [2015-01-13].

At http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2697762&page=28 I read that TWRP 2.8.3.0 is buggy for S5.

So should I use the old version of April 2014 or 2.8.3.4 ?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qubbus:
Use the latest: 2.8.3.4 works fine BUT in MOUNT optons DISABLE MTP to avoid errors while wiping cache,data and dalvik partitions.

With enabled MTP there is errors while restoring backup or flashing new rom.

I am using phillz TWRP.

Both works on S5 4.4.2 or 5.0 (g900f, g900i tested by me, other variants - you must read in thread).

Guys / gals, I’ve just posted a really cool comparison & roundup of three stereo BT headphones: the Nokia HS-12W the Plantronics Pulsar 590 and the Plantronics Pulsar 260 to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=1161097 . Make sure you don’t miss it if you’d like to choose a stereo Bluetooth headphones model or just would like to know more about A2DP – it’s a MUST for all A2DP fans!
[General Topics] d_ranade:
Very informative. Thanks a lot!
[General Topics] V J:
Great overview!

Any word on a Media Player (or plugin for Windows Media Player) to display titles on the display of a Nokia HS12w?

I can confirm that voice dialing using the HS12w works with the Cyberon software as well (my TyTN came with this installed). Jetwaremobile has a new beta software to show the name of the caller rather than the number; I'll have to try the latest beta (1.25), as I was unsuccesfull with previous versions.

Thanks for the info; will link your post in from new versions of the article.

Several new Plantronics Pulsar 260 reviews published

It was over a month ago that I’ve published an all-in-one comparative review & compatibility report (available HERE) on three A2DP (stereo Bluetooth) headphones. Now that the headphones have also arrived at the U.S. too (at last, something we Europeans got way earlier than you Americans ;) ), a lot of reviews have surfaced on well-known headset / headphones manufacturer Plantronics’ new Pulsar 260 also featured in the above-linked roundup.

Unfortunately, as has been emphasized numerous times by me and a LOT of other mostly XDA-Developers and HowardForums users (I really recommend following the BT & A2DP-related posts in these two forums, there are some very knowledgeable people there; for example, Fire Dragan in the latter forum), the current state and implementations of the A2DP standard are far from perfect and interoperability is REALLY reduced. This means on paper A2DP-capable headphones are not guaranteed to co-work with any A2DP sources. An example of this, in addition to the major sound quality problems with the MS BT stack, is the constant reconnection problems (resulting in annoying beeps and pauses) with the Nokia 5300. And, of course, the sound quality issues...

This also means you WILL want to read my review & comparison. Believe me, no matter what some people state, these headphones deliver REALLY BAD sound quality when used together with the Microsoft Bluetooth stack coming with almost all current Windows Mobile-based devices (except for the Acer models, the HP iPAQ’s (including the hw6915) and the Fujitsu-Siemens T830). I’ve also elaborated on these issues in this PPCT thread – it’s REALLY worth giving a read to see why I state they are incompatible with the stack. You’ve been warned – don’t come telling me you’ve shelled out $50…$100 for a really bad-sounding pair of BT headphones because I haven’t warned you ;)

OK, the new reviews, packed with photos:

The Gadgeteer review

GearDiary review

Digital Trends review

CTIA 2007 Blog post; related PPCT thread

BTW, upon the European release of the 260, Plantronics still didn’t have the promised and, in the leaflet accompanying the headphones, referenced online documentation. Now it’s out and available here.

[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Jambii1987:
Works great on my Nexus 5! All I did was extract from zip and install as normal apk. No moving to system or setting permissions. Signing in with google worked as well. Few very minor graphical glitches on occasion when searching in address bar but nothing major. Thanks for this :good: Missed me some AOSP browsin.

[One (M8) Themes and Apps] sasokutenshin:
I know this is a long shot, but is there any chance someone could make this materialized version work for KitKat?

It says parsing error, so I assume that means it's Lollipop-specific. I'm still rocking 4.4.4 for now, but I'd love to have this if someone could compile a working version for KitKat.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] manup456:
This wont install as a standalone app, you need to put in app-private and set proper permissions.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] sasokutenshin:
Tried that. Doesn't show up as installed, even after reboot. The OP says it's for GPE Android L. And the app icon didn't even show up in any of my file browsers. All that, combined with the existence of the parsing error, makes me think it's compiled in a way that it won't work with anything before 5.0. If that's the case, I was hoping someone, possibly even the Dev who materialized it, could make a version that would work on KitKat. Fingers crossed.

I havent tested on 5.1 so I cant tell
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] dskies:
I have had the same problem with previous version.

I advice you to:

- Create a folder named Browser in /system/app or in /system/priv-app (this last path I see it's better 'cause probably this APK is compiled expexting to be there in the original source rom)

- copy there the APK

- Modify permission/properties to 644 or rw-r--r-- (it's the same thing)

- wipe CACHE and DALVIK-CACHE in recovery

- Reboot devices letting it regenerates caches

Hope this helps

This error is thrown due to BrowserProxy.apk file. Delete it and it will be fine.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] bradputt:
You can't just flash the zip file, it will throw the apk into system/app root folder. Which does not work for nexus 6, after all this thread is for htc m8.

Manually create a browser folder under system/priv-app and dump the apk inside. Then set the permission for the folder and file.

Reboot and it will not FC. Install bookmarksync if you want to sync your bookmarks.

This method works for my nexus 6,5 and 7.

- Option to have address bar coming down when scrolling down even if with Labs->Fast commands activated.

It would be great

So damn fast!

My importet favourites got shuffled but its such a fast Browser i took the time to Import them manually.

Deleted chrome :)

2 "Bug Reports":

- sometimes scrolling gets bugged, i still can scroll but its very slow and it stops scrolling if i stop touching the Device. Normally it keeps on scrolling (pretty fast) if the Finger looses contact to the screen.

Restarting Browser fixes that

-the names of my favourites get randomly deleted but only their names.

They also get sorted in a random order it seems to me
