[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Sorry for the delay folks. I managed to injure myself at work again yesterday. 2015's not being too nice to me. LOL.

Anyway, before I post my fix, I need someone running CM12 to check something for me...

Can someone running CM12 please run the following command via Terminal Emulator and then post the results? "external_sd" MAY need to be changed to the proper path of your external sdcard.

ls /system/usr/keylayout > /external_sd/keylayouts.txt

I am actually looking for one specific file, 'gpio-keys.kl'. It should be in /system/usr/keylayout. If it is there, I'd rather you post it's contents rather than that of the command listed above.

TIA

Nevermind... Not sure what the deal is, but key definition files change completely in CM12... just stupid... in CM11 the kernel is told to load gpio-keys.kl. Now I'm seeing some generic key file is being used instead... And it defines every key possible on a keyboard... I mean WTF... It makes absolutely no sense to me... There are only 5 physical keys and 2 virtual keys on the D415, 3 physical keys and 4 virtual keys on the other variants... Why define everything... In my opinion, "IF IT AIN'T BROKE, DON'T FIX IT"...

Now I have to figure some major work around for this stupidity... This is almost enough to make me say to hell with developing... No consistency what so ever...
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
I've downloaded 5 different CM12 ROMs for different devices, and 2 of those were different flavors for the LG L90. There is NO CONSISTENCY between any of them. Keylayouts files are all different in each and every one of them. Hell, even the way the ROMs are packaged is different...

So... for the time being, this particular ability will get disabled if 1) The device is NOT a D415 and/or 2) The Android base version does not begin with '4'. Sorry folks.

I'm also going to go ahead and fix what needs fixing with the "Patch Bootloader" activity before I post an update. Maybe, as in possibly, some other things too.
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Update posted. See the OP :D
[LG Optimus L90] shoxxy:
Hi Shinobi ;)

I saw your app yesterday. Very nice... Thx for your hard work :)

Is it open source ? If yes, is it possible you upload your sources to port this to other devices ??

Edit: if you need i post the output from your post above, when coming home...

Thx

Shoxx
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Thanks Shoxxy :D No, it's not open source, yet. I've been thinking about it tho.

Do you mean a logcat for bootloader patch writing? Is it enabled? I thought I left it disabled for fear of bricking someones device but also I think some of the logic used is in incorrect places. It should work tho, I think. LOL. I have no way to really test that with the D415.

[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Not your fault. LOL. I don't really have the time to develop anymore, but I'll see what I can do to get this running on 5.0.? and 6.0.?.
[LG Optimus L90] brossovitch:
It runs just fine on LP 5.0.2 and 5.1.1. But not on MM Roms.

Any idea how to make one for the LG G4?

[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Yep. I've already ported most of this code to another app I'll be releasing, soon I hope, that should support all LG devices with a MSM???? board running KitKat thru M. Of course root is still required.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michaelopolis:
Is google now and "ok google" voice recognition hard on battery ?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zagorteney:
No.

Regards, Zagor
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Google Now "may" use a bit of battery if you're using location services along with it (naturally), but using it without location is somewhat negligible.

Having "OK Google" functionality enabled will use more than having it disabled; it's constantly polling your microphone. If you enable the options to have it enabled on every screen and not just the launcher, it'll use even more. If you enable it while the screen is off, your battery life would be pretty terrible. It requires a wakelock to be able to poll the microphone.

The Moto X achieves such functionality without significant battery drain due to the low-powered core on Snapdragon SoCs (and possibly other hardware). In the Nexus 5, however, that low-powered core is not used for this functionality and cannot be reprogrammed without legal repercussions with Qualcomm and possibly other 3rd parties.

Since it is scrolling link to link, number to number, I think it will continue to scroll this way unless that functionality is removed.
[Xperia Z2 General] algnerd:
As all of us know, we're getting Lollipop next month. But I'm wondering if its going to be the 5.0 or the 5.0.2 as the Nexus does or at least having the 5.0.1

so what are you guesses?
[Xperia Z2 General] bdithug:
Common sense would tell Sony to use the latest sources (5.02 or 5.03) but I have a feeling it will be based off 5.0. I don't envision Sony taking it a step further and doing what's right, I see them doing bare minimum and releasing with tons of bugs. That's just my opinion tho so I could very well be wrong.
[Xperia Z2 General] algnerd:
Yeah that's what I think, they didn't do it for previous version, don't think that they'll start with this one :/
[Xperia Z2 General] Criminal.K:
I really expect it.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wrice4:
So I just got my verizon note 4, about 4 days ago. I did some research to tether hidden, since I have the unlimited plan still, with Verizon. Now, I downloaded, and paid, for foxfi and foxfi addon, tried it out last night, and the tether speeds were horrible. I actually stream to twitch with my 4G usb tether connection, and with my previous phone (Iphone 5) I could stream , usb tethered, with a solid 1800-2200kb/s steady connection. When I tried the note 4, and fofxi usb tethered, last night, I got a unsteady 1000-1200kb/s connection.

Anything I need to do to fix this? I am sitting at the same spot in my house, as I was with the iphone. Also, my sleek 4G booster, that I sometimes used with my Iphone, makes the connection worse on the 4G, which is weird.

Basically my jailbroke Iphone 5 4G usb tether speeds were twice as fast as this note 4 using foxfi.... Any suggestions? (using the standard usb cable that came with my note 4, and tried multiple usb3.0 and 2.0 usb ports)

Hi, I am currently on Validus 6.2 Official-20141103-0751 and using CWM based recovery 6.0.3.4. Kernel 3.0.101-g93ecbd4, baseband version MB886_BP_100740.071.65.04P and want to switch to [BETA]GZR Validus_v7 Lollipop (5.0.2). I couldn't find any information regarding flashing for this ROM so, is there any prerequisites for flashing it? Do i need to change/flash my recovery? Or anything else (like baseband)? Thanks for your help.
[Motorola Atrix HD] marknoll:
No need for baseband. That's a tricky area. Try flashing via recovery. Factory reset,wipe cache, dalvik and system then flash.

I'd like to build a custom screen unlocker with my own unlock method (no sliding). I have different ideas, so let's just assume I'd like to reimplement the 4 digit pin unlock method at first. I've found some hack solutions, which open an app on pressing the power button. But they can't disable the home key, so I can access the phone without knowing the pin number. Some other sources claim, it's not possible without writing a custom loader. So how come, there are so many apps on the store that offer exactly this feature?

I know it's not actually answer on question but i hope it can help.

As i saw, this application can share internet and same option you already have by default called something like hotspot.

Thank you for answers.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] Cyrus Kourosh:
You can activate and deactivate it in "connexions setting".

I am not sure about the name as my ROM is in French.

It should be something like "Sending" (looks like a target with blue and red circles)

Then the option is activate or not the "receive all data"
[P3600 Software Upgrading] sammis:
Go to settings , beam , Check the box "receive all incoming beams" if you do not check it you will not be able to receive any bluetooth items as well as IR , but you will be saving a bit of power,so just check the box if you want to receive something.

By default the beam receive is enabled.

[Moto X Q&A] KiranOtter:
I'm just trying to determine if this is normal behavior or not.

I'm paying for caller ID service from Verizon, and it works fine; when a call is coming in I can see who it is.

But after the call is done, if I go to the phone's history, I'll see the caller ID for split second, and then it's replaced with the phone number of the caller.

This makes the caller ID only useful if I can look at the phone while the call is coming in. After the fact, it's useless.

Is this normal? Can I do something to save the caller IDs so I know who called?

Thanks,

Kiran
[Xperia Z1 General] optimumpro:
Now, you can encrypt your device once only and still have the ability to backup/restore, upgrade or change to a different rom without losing encryption or re-encrypting your device. You can also get rid of screen lock pin/password, which is required by Google to have encryption.

As many of us may know, TWRP unlike CWM can deal with encrypted Data partition and internal storage. As such, if you encrypt your custom CM/AOSP based rom and subsequently enter recovery (TWRP only), you are asked for your password and then TWRP decrypts and mounts your encrypted Data, which allows you to upgrade the rom, install a different custom rom or backup your current rom while preserving encryption. What is interesting is that when you install a new rom (or reinstall the old one), you can get rid of screen lock password completely. In other words, your password is used only for encrypting/decrypting.

Now, a word of caution about short passwords. A 4-5 character pin/password defeats the purpose of encryption, since it takes about 4 minutes to break it. There are ways, however, to have separate passwords for encryption and screen lock or, as shown in this guide, get rid of screen lock password completely. Here is what you can do:

1. Have TWRP recovery (CWM does not work)

2. Encrypt your current data and internal storage (go to Security menu and choose encrypt; you will be forced to set encryption password, which will also be your screen lock password).

3. When you are done, turn the phone off and on to check that decryption/encryption works.

4. Next, install encryption password changer from fdroid:

https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdfilter=encrypt&fdid=com.kibab.android.EncPassChanger or this one:

https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdfilter=encrypt&fdid=org.nick.cryptfs.passwdmanager

5. Change your password to a strong and long one. Make a note of it, as if you forget it, you will have to reset your device in flashtool, meaning flashing stock et al, which is pain. You will only need your long password when you are turning your device on. You won't have to enter that or another password, when the device is running.

6. Next, you want to reinstall your current rom or install a new one. For that do:

7. Enter TWRP recovery, enter your password and your system/data/cards will be mounted. Reinstall your rom (install, not restore) or install a new one. Remember, the only thing you need in your new rom is TWRP recovery. Once you are done, reboot the device. You will have your new rom encrypted with no screen password. From that point and on, you can backup your rom (and do other things) that TWRP recovery allows.
[Xperia Z1 General] grisu59964:
Thanks for your guide.

I really tried to follow it to the end, but TWRP will not mount my internal storage. Neither with the original password nor after I changed it to a more complex one.

Unfortunately, I always end up with the "Password Failed, Please Try Again" error message.

Is there any way to make TWRP work with my encrypted internal storage?
[Amazon Fire Phone] DeekoVB5:
Anyone have a good solution to notifications being terrible in the Fire Phone? The combination of the lack of any sort of notification LED + the fact that the notification bar doesn't actually show you notifications means that its very easy to miss things. If you get a notification from an app that doesn't put it on your lock screen (as in, almost every 3rd party application), the only way you'll ever know is to pull down the notification shade. Is there any way to get it to show something up in the notification bar itself like every other Android phone?
