[Huawei Ascend G7 Questions & Answers] KeskinGames:
Hello Xda

Today I got the Huawei Ascend G7-L01. It's a decent smartphone but I think mine has a defect. I can not seem to establish a stable connection with my home network (wifi) when I'm standing beyond 1 meter away from the Internet modem. I literally have to sit right next to the modem in order to have a poor- to decent connection (-70 -60 dBm)

I've looked all over the web to find a solution with no success. There is nothing on the G7-L01 so I looked for WIFI problems with other Huawei products with relatively same issues. From my understanding, the G6 had a similar problem and was solved with a firmware update in most cases. Unfortunately there is no update for the G7 yet. So I can safely assume that this is a software malfunction rather than a hardware defect. I will return the device back for a full refund if there is no solid fix for this problem. I do not want to wait months before Huawei addresses this issue and proposes a solution (like the G6)

Things I've tried to far:

Restarted device.

Restarted Modem.

Changed WIFI channels (originally I set it on CH 11, changed it to CH 2 and then finally to CH 7)

Installed third party WIFI connectors/analyzers

Disabled WPS on web UI.

Disabled device option "Avoid poor connections"

Disabled/enabled device option "WI-FI optimization" (Minimeze battery usage when Wi-FI is on)

Factory reset device.

Contacted Huawei Support (waiting for a response)

Any more suggestions would be appropriated. Guides, Videos, tutorial, tips & tricks, how-to's etc.

Recently rooted my sch i605 with ghetto root everything worked out ok. I installed titanium backup to backup freeze unistall bloatware and unwanted applications and today I was disabling some applications in bloatware and got a prompt that said android.process.acorn has stopped. The only way for me to get out of it was to do a reset on my phone thank god I didn't lose root but everything I did with titanium back up is gone now my home button does nothing but wake my phone I can't use it to close applications what did I do is there any way around it how do I get it functioning again. Thank you in advanced. Hope to hear from someone soon
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thcjunkee:
I want to increase the time before an ANR (App Not Responding) Wait, Close popup is displayed for an app.

Use case: Samba server app consistently takes about 1 sec. longer than the delay to respond. It works fine, but I consistently have to tap the 'wait' button both when enabling and disabling samba filesharing. If I can increase the ANR delay by a couple of seconds, it would save me an extra tap.

Assume a reasonable level of hacking ability short of recompiling a kernel (I know how to edit text and binary files in the root filesystem), but I'm a newbie when it comes to knowledge of Android innards. I've found no information about setting the delay among the volumes of posts people have made about the ANR popup which are mostly related to unresponsive apps. I don't see the app as the issue in this case.

Situation: I am running a Clean, Slim & Fast v2 ROM (a rooted Archos stock 4.0.25 ICS 4.0.4 variant) on my Archos G9 Turbo tablet.

Anybody know? Thanks in advance.

I want to now how to enter to download mode with my samsung galaxy s5. I discover that my phone was a chineese copy. I try many times to do it but a chinesse screen apears. My model is sm-9006v. I try the method that you push the volume down+home button+power button but the chineese screen apears.

Can you help me please and tell me how i put it in download mode

thank you
[XDA Assist] Darth:
Hi,

I can't find anything relevant on XDA for your device. And being it's not a Samsung, it's likely not the same. Nor can any Samsung software work on it, or Odin.

You will need to contact the manufacturer for how to get to download mode. Not sure why you want that? Again, you can't use Samsung files.

But you can ask for help here,

> Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Good luck!

hi i dont know the name of the manufacture but i need to find how to enter to download mode for installing lidroid

Thank you
[XDA Assist] Darth:
You'll need to ask in the section I linked above. But without knowing what your device make is, it may be difficult to find an answer. Try a google search on that model number and download mode also.

Keep in mind, again, it's not a Samsung. So, Odin will not work. Also, I just thought... "download mode" is pretty much a Samsung mode also, you likely don't have a download mode.

Also, I could he wrong , but lidroid needs to be ported to devices, so I'm not sure what you're trying to flash, but it could easily brick you or cause other issues.

Ask for help on all this in the thread I've linked, or try Google search. But yeah, I think you aren't going to have luck with any of this.... It's highly unlikely anything will be compatible with your device I'm afraid .

But, hopefully you find a way. ?

Is there any property to set in the system.prop file or in the BoardConfig.mk file to set the brightness ?

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] fenixus:
Hello!

I recently purchased Nexus 7 razor on good deal in Staples and already applied all OTA updates (4.4.4 was latest for me), so updated it manually to 5.0.1 factory image and flashed TWRP 2.8.3.0 Flo at same time. All runs great and I love this tablet (rooted it too, because I want Adfree). I love this thing and can't wait 5.0.3 (or 5.1) which will fix the memory leak issue, but I have a question related to TWRP backups!

When I run backup from TWRP it saves it in Internal Storage (obviously since there is no external SD card) and it looks like it's good, allows me to select for restoration and such ... but I want to copy that backup over via USB to my PC for safe keeping ... and I can't find it ... weird ...

ASTRO file manager is showing a file (not a folder) called TWRP in SDCARD mount point, but I can't do anything with it. When I connect tablet to PC I can't even see that much at all (no TWRP file or folder or anything) ...

How do I transfer TWRP tablet backup to a PC?

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Which version of TWRP are you using? When it's connected to the PC does it show up in device manager at all, Even if its an Unknown device or anything else? One last question you say old version of ARHD. Which old version?

a getvar all would be helpful but you need to get your pc detecting it first to do that. So just the information from your bootloader screen will do for now.

So I'm trying to get Android running on my Yoga 2 Pro (not the Yoga Tablet Pro 2 or whatever its called)

IM ASSUMING MANY EFI devices are having the same problems as well. Fill free to contribute

I was able to get Android IA dual booting very smooth with windows. However I have a few issues (I'm not a developer, I'm a noob, but probably have enough skills to contribute fruitfully to the conversation)

It works ...ok...As many of you know it doesn't have gapps, and I cannot figure out how to install gapps. it cant be installed like a traditional android device where one can flash it...

As of now, Display support works great. Both touch and hi resolution support

no sound

no bluetooth

accelerometer not working

Many apps don't work on intel ia as well....netflix, watchespn...etc

After fooling around with intel IA, I tried Android x86 instead...heres what I got from it.

Only could boot into Android from the live CD (my case thumb drive) when using VESA mode

graphic is not supported at high resolution (only in VESA mode)

gapps worked well with Android X86

Sound works

bluetooth (not tested)

I could not get Android x86 to install AT ALL...I can't figure out how to boot into android x86 using VESA on grub

So my question is this...How do I begin integrating the two if it is possible (I've read somewhere the kernals are different)..do I need to use Kitchen or can this be done by copying and pasting lib, and apks?.

I need the graphic support of Android IA

Sound support of Android X86

Working Gapps

whatever arm translator that seems to work in Android X86 as apps seem to work a little better

EFI support of Android IA

Any takers?

If anyone needs a tutorial on how to get intel IA working on Yoga 2 pro, I'll post one if needed

What other apps will be affected by disabling google play services? Want to try this but I have Play services installed.
[Android Apps and Games] Ultramanoid:
Thank you very much for this.

Just a note to point out that GitHub's mobile site has no downloads anywhere to be seen if one gets there from a smartphone on default mode, and users might get really confused about it. One has to switch to the desktop site to find the backend APKs.
[Android Apps and Games] MaR-V-iN:
If you run with play services I guess you installed the complete GAPPS package, including Play Store etc. These either require Play Services or misbehave with Play Services removed or replaced.

However, chances are good that there will be a complete Play Services replacement including UnifiedNlp sometime (sooner or later - no ETA here)
[Android Apps and Games] Cozmos23:
Every APP which requires Google play licensing or the play services. F.e. Google Music

A lot of paid apps f.e. Poweramp will not work

But u are able to download your paid apps in Blank Store f.e. Tasker

Nova Launcher or Atlas Browser and most CM Themes are working fine without gapps even the paid Version.

U can only buy apps on the Play Store Website and you have no option to return the APP.

But if everything is working fine for you then stay with Gapps because it requires a lot of work and knowledge.

But some people like it that way :)
[Android Apps and Games] sherpa25:
I see, thanks for the info. I use Nova and Phoenix ROM and just selected a few gapps.

I do use Play Store....well, it's the only app I know where to easily get and install apps from (when searching for an app), other than getting an apk elsewhere which I copy and install manually. What are you guys using? I tried browsing and downloading a few times on my phone but they don't work when installing. Probably I need an installer app on my phone? How do you guys manage these installations via the phone? I'd like this so I don't have to keep attaching my phone to the PC and transferring apks to install. Thanks again.

µg UnifiedNlp works great on Android 4.2.2.

GPS first fix time is faster than Google network location.

Looks like µg UnifiedNlp can save more battery since it's lower wakelock time compare with Google network location.
[Android Apps and Games] dp_alvarez:
Wow, this is awesome! It must have been a LOT of work to get this working, let alone making it stable and usable, thank you! Android is really very usable without gapps now.

Also, here are a couple links to anyone interested in using it completely offline: https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdfilter=Backend&fdid=org.fitchfamily.android.wifi_backend and https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdfilter=Backend&fdid=org.fitchfamily.android.gsmlocation

The wifi backend even updates the local database with nearby APs once it has found a GPS fix, real neat!

---------- Post added at 12:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:39 AM ----------

I use F-Droid and Aptoide. Aptoide really has a LOT of software, highly recommended. It is a fork of F-Droid if I'm not mistaken, still open source and you can set-up your own repositories.
[Android Apps and Games] sherpa25:
Thanks, downloaded these 2 apps now. Still reading up on UnifiedNlp. Since nogapps is needed, will I still be accessing gmail and/or google account, w/c is asked by some apps? Sorry for some confusion. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] dp_alvarez:
I have a question: Is it possible to use UnifiedNlp with a offline copy of the OpenWlanMap database? In their website they provide the database for download, but I see no mention of using it with OpenWlanMapNlpBackend.

LocalWifiNlpBackend is intended to be used with our own database, but can I convert the OpenWlanMap database and use it?

Is it possible to disable Google location services with "My Android Tool" and use µg UnifiedNlp for location service but keep the Google services installed for other purposes (app licenses, ...)?
[Android Apps and Games] droika:
Exactly what I was looking for; don't want Google snooping around on my phone. Thanks a lot!

One thing though: I am running an unofficial CM11 on my Razr i. Installing your app via F-Droid or directly as an apk fails due to a wrong signature, i.e. UnifiedNlp seems to be installed already - I can't find it anywhere on my phone though...
[Android Apps and Games] steadyeddy:
Ooh I love you! That feature + a device patched to passively scan for Wifi APs = pinpoint the location without emitting any signals whatsoever even if GPS coverage is poor. That's some exquisite stuff, man.

By the way, does µg implement Google Cloud Messaging? It would be fantastic for RedPhone, to get secure(ish) voice comms to our poor iOS using friends.

[Android Apps and Games] levone1:
Working pretty well, (Xperia Z1c Jaguar [AOSP] LP), but my location is about 1 mile off. Does it just go by the nearest tower, or any ideas about tweaks, etc? Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] n76:
Looks like you are using my local GSM and WiFi/WLAN backends.

For the GSM backend, it depends on the phone and how many cell/mobile towers are in your area. Some phones only report the one mobile site they are connected to. If you are in a rural area with only one tower visible or you have a phone that only reports one tower then your position will be the cell tower's location with your position error the estimate of the tower's coverage. It sounds like that is what is happening for you at the moment.

Remember also that the tower location and estimated coverage range is built up from reports by volunteers using stumbling apps. The tower locations will not be very precise and not all towers may be in the database(s) you download from places like Mozilla.

For the WiFi/LAN backend, all phones that I am aware of can report multiple networks if they are visible. But for this backend to work it first needs to learn/map the area. For that it needs an accurate GPS provided location. In addition, to help from giving a bogus location in the case of moving APs (e.g. those in trains, busses, cars, etc.) it requires at least two known WLAN networks to be visible before it will return a location.
[Android Apps and Games] levone1:
Thanks - so for an accurate GPS location I could just go outside somewhere clear and refresh location services?
[Android Apps and Games] n76:
Install SatStat (on f-droid), run it with the map display. The red point is your GPS location, the blue is your network based location (i.e. the most accurate report from the back ends installed). There will be colored areas around the locations indicating the reported accuracy.

Once the GPS locks, walk or drive around your neighborhood and if your phone detects WiFi APs you should see the network based position get closer to your actual position and the error get smaller.
[Android Apps and Games] levone1:
Working great now, thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] robneymcplum:
Just to check, I have an MTK phone and as usual, GPS is basically non existent. If I try and get this running, will my OSMAN maps be able to find a location based on cell towers? This in itself is better than not finding me anywhere using the GPS that just has never worked.
[Android Apps and Games] n76:
Maybe. Depends on the back end(s) you install, what your phone reports regarding cell towers, etc. My phone only reports one tower so if I have only a cell tower based back end the position is not very accurate. Since your GPS is "basically non existent", I would not recommend the local WLAN/WiFi backend as it needs the GPS to learn the area. If you have a data connection then either the Apple or Mozilla backends might give you a reasonable position.
[Android Apps and Games] robneymcplum:
Even 'not very accurate' is better than nothing, currently it wont even find the bloody county I am in, let alone the right town or street :) lol

Assume I am a complete novice with this, (because I am) Which is the quickest/easiest way to just get up and running to see if its better? Then I can have a proper tweaking session to try and get it as good as it will get.

Thanks in advance.
[Android Apps and Games] n76:
What backend(s) do you have installed?
[Android Apps and Games] robneymcplum:
Oh nothing at all, I havent even downloaded this yet. Seems quite complex so didnt want to start trying with no idea what I was doing, was asking for some simple set-up advice for it really.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] n76:
If only going for geolocation you don't need the full microG play replacement (though I think that is worth doing as it includes maps API v2 which many location aware apps use). OsmAnd and Maps.me are fine with just the geolocation as they do their own map display.

UnifiedNLP can be installed directly from F-Droid. And the backends (UnifiedNLP needs at least one installed) are also available through F-Droid. Your easiest install would be doing a search for "unified" on F-Droid. Install the UnifiedNLP flavor that matches your environment. And then install the Apple or Mozilla backends. Enable the backend(s) that you install in the UnifiedNLP settings. Those backends use network data and have no options or settings so they are easy to setup.

If, like me, you usually run with mobile data disabled to save money then you can install the local GSM backend and/or the local WLAN/WiFi backend. Those need some setup, for example the GSM backend requires you download a database for your area while the WLAN/WiFi backend requires a working GPS system so it can learn the APs around the phone.
