[General Questions and Answers] Angry Black Man:
I installed the MotoBlur style Atrix Clock HD skin for the EZ Weather app. It works pretty great, except the actual weather application sucks. So using tasker, i intercept the app being opened and i force it closed and then open an app of my choice. Peachy.

Well, all the other apps suck too. The one i like the most is the overlay that comes with HD Widgets.

That said, I'd like to make it so that the HD Widgets' overlay comes up instead of the default app. As you read above, I already know how to do this. The problem is that i can't find the right "activity" (don't know if this is the proper jargon) to launch when i want to do this override. I made a video which shows that i can't find the "activity" that i want. I can select them, but these are all just configuration activities and not the weather activity.

Knowing that a press on the widget produces the weather app, but also knowing that none of the activities reflect that particular desirable screen are showing up when i search them, how can i find the correct activity so that i can point to it using tasker? Or is it something else i should be doing?

no way!! no one knows this stuff???
[General Questions and Answers] ryan012:
You want to find the activity of the app coming on ? What is the weather activity you're looking for ? you don't know the name , what does it do ?

The main activity is what's used when the app first opens
[General Questions and Answers] Angry Black Man:
It's all there in the video and my description. Keep in mind, I don't know what I'm trying to do which is why I'm asking the question. Carefully read my post and it describes exactly what I'm trying to do and my video shows the impediment to that.
[General Questions and Answers] ryan012:
I don't know what it is. The things I see are.

Package ,

cloudytv.hdwidgets

Activity ,

cloudtv.hdwidgets.activities.MainActivity

Component ,

[MENTION=4933185]Angry Black Man[/MENTION],

I know precisely what you're asking for, and it's actually surprisingly difficult. Here's the best and most convenient method I've come across for finding the names of the activities in packages.

1. Download and install (even if temporarily) this version of ADW Launcher.

2. Follow this sequence of taps: Menu > Add > Custom shortcut > Pick your activity > Activities.

3. You are now on a screen with a list of all the apps you have installed on your device. This includes in /data/app and /system/app.

4. Find the app that you need the activity name for and tap on its small downward-pointing arrow on the far left side.

5. This opens a list of all of the activities available for the app. Using the labels and your logical reasoning, find out which activity is the one you need.

6a. From here, you have two choices. Choice 6a. (this one) is to tap on that activity, tap "OK", and make a shortcut on your homescreen directly to the activity. Or...

6b. Choice 6b. is to memorize/write down the activity you want to execute in the terminal (remember the period "."), exit the Custom shortcut dialog, open up the terminal and execute this:

su
am start -n [package name found in /data/app or /system/app]/[activity name you memorized/wrote down]

For example, to execute the activity to start Developer Options, I would use this:

su
am start -n com.android.settings/.DevelopmentSettings

Hope this helps!
[General Questions and Answers] Angry Black Man:
Thank God. Someone with some actual technical understanding! Well, I dove in, but I just couldn't crack this egg. I did see more activities than I was able to get to in my video, but in adw, I keep getting " app not installed" errors. I then installed secure settings for tasker and got to the activities and was able to get one of my Samsung weather activities to work, but I simply can't find the hd widgets activity. I tried weirdly named activities within hd widgets that works crash immediately.. Are there " hidden" activities?
[General Questions and Answers] NOOK!E:
No, there aren't - ADW without a doubt provides the full list. However, many activities are dependent upon other ones. They just f/c if you start them individually, but if used in conjunction with other activities, they work properly.

Only problem with that is that the only real way to launch multiple activities at the same time is to launch the entire package (app). This is even harder with widgets, however, because of how they work differently than regular apps. That's why you're getting the "App not installed on your phone" error - because the Android system gets finicky when it tries to launch a widget activity.

:confused:
[General Questions and Answers] ryan012:
What does the -n do ? I can start it without using that and don't see anything that it does.

I enter , am start ,

and it shows list of commands for that, I don't see what -n is for.
[General Questions and Answers] NOOK!E:
[MENTION=5709368]ryan012[/MENTION], I actually don't know for sure, but the syntax listed says [-n <component>] about the "-n" tag. You can look for more info here.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kurtsi:
Hey everyone!

I broke the screen glass, order new lcd+digitizer from ebay, installed it today but:

I can see the Oneplus logo for a few seconds but the lcd turns off after that, before the animation. After that it's just black without backlight.

Somehow it still boots into fastboot and recovery modes normally and I can flash roms and zips there.

Do you have any ideas about what is causing this?

New digitizer is working fine.

I have tested it with the previous lcd which still works and I can boot with it normally.

Also tested with cm11s and ParanoidAndroid, same problem with both of them.

Maybe it's just faulty part.

Help is highly appreciated!

I'm a Z1 Compact user (my Z3C coming soon!) - not sure how relevant this is for Z3C, but for Z1C, there is no stock "recovery" to get into. Only Flashmode and Fastboot mode from the OFF position. Maybe Z3C is the same...

If by "hard reset" you mean, to wipe the phone and start it fresh, can you do it via the settings? (Settings -> Backup & Reset)?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miffee:
I've found the hardware wipe to be more comprehensive than the software wipe. For example, when I wiped my Z3 Compact in the past to try and clear a camera fault, some of the Sony (cr)apps weren't there after. I had to send the handset off for repair (camera fault still there) and it's come back with the firmware reflashed with some of the tat back - specifically the Xperia Now bit when you swipe up the home icon.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d33dvb:
HERE IS YOUR FIX, be careful!!

FIRST THING FIRST, THIS IS DANGEROUS. DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Myself and one other person have successfully done this. If you have success as well, please post here. What you DO NOT want to flash, and is the cause of bricks is motoboot.img that is older than what you have now. Just dont mess with it.

What you can do, is flash gpt.bin to get the partition tables re-partitioned to get you back to be able to flash roms from CWM, TWRP, Philz, etc.

That being said, this is my PERSONAL experience, and am only sharing because it got me out of GPE lollipop hell, and I was terrified of the bricks, like everyone else. I will attempt to be more clear in my OP.

I have an XT1034 that I converted to GPE to flash 5.0 Lollipop OTA and it gave me the new bootloader 41.18. I couldnt get to CM12 due to Status 7, and I could only flash 4.4.4 stock, lollipop stock, or CM11, any flashing to CM12 always gave errors about Status 7. Others have reported not being able to wipe /data or /system or mount either in any recovery. The problem is the updated partition table and here is the solution:

IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW THIS DIRECTION YOU WILL HARD BRICK. DO NOT RUN THE BATCH FILE IN THE DOWNLOAD. IT CONTAINS 4.4.2 motoboot.img and YOU WILL BRICK. ONLY RUN THE COMMANDS LISTED BELOW!!!

ALSO DO NOT use an older gpt.bin, it must be 4.4.2 or newer!! Use the link below to get a 4.4.2 XT1034 stock rom.)

I flashed a 4.4.2 GPT.bin from this: US_retail_XT1034_KXB20.9-1.8-1.4_CFC.xml.zip (http://motofirmware.com/files/getdow...-14-cfcxmlzip/)

If you want to try the same thing, you can extract gpt.bin from the zip and run this: (ONLY!!)

Code:

fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

then download philz here: http://fs1.d-h.st/download/00145/DEw...8.7-falcon.img

rename to philz.img

fastboot flash recovery philz.img

Hold vol - and power, to reboot into recovery, then

format /system

format /data

Download the latest nightlies and gapps and push them like this:

adb push cm-10-10-1000.zip /data/media/0

Reboot into recovery, and flash cm12 and gapps.

WOW d33dvb!!!!

You are AWESOME!!!.....

Just came GPE 4.4.4 STOCK I put into my MOTO G.

And then always put CM11. Now I'm sure you indicate that the problem is damaged partition tables.

How do I know the bootloader i have?

Another thing that happens to me and I guess that is the partition table. When I flashed some recovery is automatically deleted after a while.

When I encourage you indicate me do what I notice.

Only certain music player apps have Android Wear extensions. You can try using Music Boss for Wear from the market.
