[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] leoni1980:
I have re-installed MVRTrue vga today to look at the prevailing niggles and advantages.

Cheifly I feel that the icons are just a bit TOO small. For such a nice, crisp screen this seems like an awful waste of fingering posibility (for want of a better word!). If the icons could be somewhere in size between standard and MvR that would be superb.

MvR seems to slow down my Advantage dramatically sometimes - particularly the today screen, which seems to struggle to refresh - has anyone else experienced this?

I like the small address bars and sidebars - these really make a difference to window space with Internet Explorer and (even more crucially) The Midlet manager. I would be interested to know if there is a registry fix just for this in the interim.

If a new VGA app is developed I would like to hot-swap between modes without a restart as inevitably certain applications will never function correctly in tru VGA mode. a today button for this function would be wonderful if it's possible.

p.s. midget I'm more than happy to test any VGA mod you can develop, Im always installing and re-installing anyway.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Midget_1990:
It's one or the other im affraid :(

Inevitable, the device is redering 4x the amount ;)

there is a hack for this somewhere :)

a restart is needed to change modes due to the way WM works.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] leoni1980:
Thank you midget. I shall try and find that sidebar hack. perhaps google will be a simpler route.

With regard to the icon size then would I be right in thinking that wm6 has only qvga and vga icon support, so nothing in-between can be utilized?

Or am I confusing myself...I am thinking that this means there is no way of altering the icon size at all in the way that you can with windows xp.

Sorry for the noob responses but I'm genuinely interested. A display settings add-on on a par with windows xp display settings would be REALLY amazing. don't you think?

(I appreciate that a windows pc and a PDA are completely different things, but you've gotta dream a dream)

cxvscr - vertical bar

cyhscr - horizontal bar

is this the one ?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] leoni1980:
Cheers boinger66, but how do I change the size with that regedit?

Another post raised a good point that Office Mobile is much more practical in VGA mode: I can't really contest that.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] LTxda:
Midget_1990, we need to get this going. Let me know when you're ready and now that you're getting a device you can test no your own phone. ;-)

Let's see if you can fix the little quircks so we can get trueVGA running all the time without the graphics going out of wack.

EDIT: And I understand that we wont be able to fix everything. And I know people don't expect all apps to work perfectly. The goal should be to make defaults within the OS render as properly as possible in trueVGA mode. I think vijay555 already "fixed" some of the issues recently reported and we can either involve him on this or get permission (if required) to build on his work.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] leoni1980:
I second that
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] boinger66:
change the value...

more = bigger

less = thinner

i think default is 13
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] lpsi2000:
Agreed, considering WM6 is out in the while and cook ROM to come soon. I think this another project that should go to the top of the list.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] keithwwalker:
I would contribute a reasonable amount to get this working on all installed software on the 7501.

Some of us have already contributed a goodly amount to help promote development on this platform. I hope this will be one of the priorities...
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] whoster69:
I recommend you try out an iPhone. I happened to be in an AT&T store the other day (yeah I'm sorry too) and since they had an hour wait, I got a chance to play with several phones including the iPhone. I wasn't impressed. True it's got a nice interface, but that's about it. Otherwise it was slow, had a small screen (it barely seemed any bigger than an 8525) and couldn't do about half the stuff I wanted. When I asked the guy if it was running on Wifi, he said, "yes. you wouldn't want to use it on EDGE". So go play with one. That should cure you of any desire for an iPhone... ;)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] keithwwalker:
Yes, I did play with the iPhone before I got my HTC 7501, amazing user interface. Little business functionality, but then again, I can't get notes to sync on my 7501 and PC. (Score one for my old Sony Clie Palm OS!)

I guess this is the quandary of smart phone users:

Apple is a software company that also makes so-so hardware.

HTC is a hardware company that has so-so software on it's excellent hardware.

Now if they could only get together....
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] LTxda:
Yes, it's being worked on as part of the Athena Project. :-)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] keithwwalker:
To bring this thread back on course, I would be honored to test!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Tadeusz:
Me to. I also declare my paypal contribution.

Lets setup some basics:

The solution should provide all basic WM6 apps run with properly resized icons, this includes Phone, comm manager and the rest. It also should be a complete package. I do not like to install MvRvga and then google for solution for each particular issue.

Lets also make a list of interested donators:

For a start: 20 Euro...

[Sony Xperia M2] lflaurflorin:
Hi. I have a Sony Xperia M2 Aqua, which is supposedly a waterproof phone.

However...

A couple of days ago, my phone got an accidental contact with water for a couple of seconds (4-5 maybe) -

completely submerged - and then both the loudspeaker and the ear speaker lost much of their volume and just

sounded very faded and fuzzed out...

This lasted for a approx. day... the next day my phone was back to normal by itself.

My question is: is this situation 'normal' for a waterproof phone? How does this phone really handle water?

Can anyone tell me? Or should I go ask for a refund on basis of false advertising and features?

Tell me your 'watery' situations with the Xperia M2 Aqua - if you had any and how it was like. Thank you for the support.
[Sony Xperia M2] vusun123:
It'a normal for all waterproof phones. My dad's Z2 is also like that.
[Sony Xperia M2] Miche1asso:
The M2 Aqua is IP68 certified. That means it should be completely dust tight and indefinitely resist immersions beyond 1m:

http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_m2_aqua_adds_ip68_certification_to_m2_formula-news-9395.php

This if it is sealed, though (all flaps closed tight). If anything was open it has probably got wet and started to work again after it dried up internally.
[Sony Xperia M2] lflaurflorin:
Thank you all for the feedback.

One last question: if it ever happened for the phone to become damaged by water

while having all its ports waterproofed, does the warranty cover the repairs?

Or should I not expect any support or refund?

[EDIT] Miche1asso, all ports were sealed. Only the loudspeaker and the earspeaker got fuzzed

as I mentioned up above.

Change Log

Android Policy v1:

​

1. Unlike last from JB, this KK Reboot Menu has it's own button instead of going through the Power Button.

2. Problem with Bootloader Button not working, not going into Bootloader.
​

Android Policy v2 ( 02/28/15 ):

​

1. Reboot Menu has it's own button instead of going through the Power Button as before.

2. Soft Reboot ( Quick Reboot ) using smali command of "setprop stl.restart zygote" instead of "pkill -term -f system_server" for those

that do not want to or honestly need to install BusyBox to simlink pkill if not already done so. Change will not affect anything.

3. Some more smali edits to try and get Bootloader button working. Forum member n3wt discovered when attempting to go into Bootloader mode,

after reboot and staying stuck at the nabi boot logo screen, plugging in the USB cord while USB connected to computer would then switch the

Nabi to Fastboot Mode. --- link to youtube video bellow.

Thanks. I get error flashing zip from TWRP. I copied the jar to /system/framework and set perms to 644 but I don't see the new options even after reboot. Also the attachment says v1. Where is v2?

If you are saying its not available from the power button how do you get to the menu?
[Fuhu Nabi 2] DarkAngel:
Sorry for not responding right away, notification was not set. The zip is not a flashable. I never got around to making one. Better one knows where it's going and one backs up their original before attempting.

You get the reboot option when pressing on "Reboot". Normally, the Nabi2 stock jar does not come with a reboot option which is what I added.

Hi, recently I've tried to install a custom recovery. In the end, I think I've corrupted my recovery img and now my phone just keep rebooting.

But I can boot my phone normally if i use "fastboot continue" in adb shell. But no matter what recoveries I've tried to flash, it just won't solve the bootlooping problem. I've also tried to use flashtool to download back the recovery. But it just keep disconnecting due to the bootloop. Can anyone please help me ?

Hello xda community , i got an international version of the galaxy s5 G900F non rooted with stock rom/kernel . Well the problem is whenever i fully charge my phone to 100% , the first 5-6% drains really fast in like 1 minute wich means its like i usualy start my full charge from 94% and not 100% . I've tried factory restoring or also flashing the stock rom all over again and i've also tried calibrating the battery but still without any positive results . Note: my phone is still new that i just bought 3 weeks ago and not a very old one ( means the battery is not dying )

I have 2 note 4 devices, both are N910c running lolipop stock firmware. One is ASV group 2 and and the other 12. ASV group 12 Device has a strange issue: after rooting stock keyboard lags severely, once unrooted, it is working well again. The other device , asv group 2 doesn't have this issue. It's keyboard is working well in both cases.

What might be the cause for this and how to get rid to the lag while rooted on the asv group 12 device?

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitLIX:
how to hide xposed modules in the app drawer?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SirHat:
Depends on the modules.. Most modules allow you to specify in their own settings whether you want a launcher icon. If you really don't want one, the easier is by hiding it inside your launcher itself.

I use Apex, and other popular launchers like Nova can do this also. The Google Experience Launcher probably not without a tweak.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Anabta:
Hey guys,

I have rooted my Sony Xperia Go quite some time ago but since a month or so I get an error whenever I want to save an image or something else on my memory. The camera application says (in german) "Speicherfehler - Der Speicher ist schreibgeschützt. Dateien konnten nicht bearbeitet werden". (English: Memory failiure - The memory is write protected. Files could not be edited)

When I restart the phone everything works back again, but after a day or so the error occurs again.

Its not that big of a deal turning your phone off/on once a day, but after some time it gets pretty annoying.

My system:

Sony Xperia Go

Phantom Kernel 3.0.8

SlimBean ROM (http://xdaforums.com/xperia-u/go-development/rom-slimbean-v1-3-t2326120)

Is this a known issue or am I the only one?

Ip very easy. To know Your cell or LAC id is possible but they must have some agreement with you operator to receive that information......
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] christopherwoods:
Your IP will be the proxy IP your network uses to route all its IP traffic through to the Internet, so you can only ever be traced to their point of presence (T-Mobile UK's POP for example is in Germany, on the DTAG (Deutsche T-Mobile AG) network!) but yeah, if there was any criminal activity, the police could request - and obtain - details of the cell IDs and all that goodness from the network provider, and I'm sure your network provider keeps logs of which SIM account accesses what sites.

Great post. Thanks
[Galaxy Note 4 General] bonerp:
so you've bought a Note Edge, disabled everything of use, and carry a separate device for calls, texts and web browsing? I'm not getting this!

Don't you use the interweb at all?? If you need a diary, just get a little black book.

I find that I can encrypt my device, use secure passwords and maintain all of the above securely in one package. Photos on SD which can be backed up to my NAS if I didnt want to keep images on google...

Sorry - really not trying to be rude but why?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] fundaprob:
I don't. I own a cheap Philips cellphone that can only call and read/send SMS. I don't browse web while I'm away from my laptop - I read books, watch movies, play games, think about projects taking notes and making mind maps, etc. Then since you have BT you can easily share/receive stuff. GPS is also working - you just use offline maps which are better than Google's anyway (you can get routes, etc. without paying for traffic and even in the countryside).

Lol, and do you use your phone only for web surfing? I don't think so. There's so much you can do even without being online.

That's useless in most cases. Even secure passwords are challenging - can you really type 20 symbols or more that are sufficiently random using just soft keyboard? Won't it drive you mad after a couple dozen of times?

Besides, stock ROM includes loads of spyware. And it's not just Samsung - read about Lenovo's recent spyware "Superfish" that read all user's communications (even encrypted).
[Galaxy Note 4 General] bonerp:
But google/the device remembers passwords. If you happen to lose it, android device manager allows you to remotely wipe it. I'm not worried about this, but if you are, doesn't knox help to further secure your use? I've never really used it.

Good on you if it worries you that much regarding keeping your life secure, but there are ways without staying offline and disconnecting yourself from the outside world.

20 yrs ago we never had all this, but now I couldn't manage my life without it.:good:
[Galaxy Note 4 General] fundaprob:
Losing the device doesn't trouble me that much; what troubles me is that treats to mobile OSes are much bigger than to desktop because you have much less control over what goes in and out. Not just bad guys trying to trojan you but also manufacturers, ISPs, app writers - this is beyond the reasonable point. It's best to just keep the mobile device offline IMO. As an added benefit you see no more ads :)

I'm not disconnecting myself, I'm disconnecting my smartphone only for the reasons explained above. I'm still perfectly online but only when I want it.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] jazzmachine:
This is fantastic. I have a large percent of these apps frozen in TB, and you are 100% correct, not just about phones being preloaded with various degrees of spyware, but freaking

redundant spyware

. Of all the potential things that could affect the performance of my phone, just "no" on SO many level.

One thing I've often wondered about re: debloating. Does AdaptSound have an effect on call audio quality? I've kind of always thought that it did to some degree, and gone through the test to set it up, and keep in installed alongside Viper (of course...). What I do for battery is have a shortcut straight to sound settings on my home screen (thank you kindly Nova Prime), and switch my mixer to Viper (with the Super Quality drivers, since I do this), then when I'm not listening to music, like 97% of the time, I just switch the mixer back to AdaptSound with the shortcut and two additional taps.

Thoughts on the above strategy / any value whatsoever to AdaptSound?

Edit: I probably meant SoundAlive at least half of the time I referred to AdaptSound above.. I suppose my question appilies to both...
[Galaxy Note 4 General] zurkx:
this is insanity. why even bother with a smartphone if youre going to remove the smarts from it and not even use it as a phone.

none of that stuff is spyware. youre removing API libraries and interconnection stuff which is necessary to actually use the phone as a smartphone.

and ironically youre removing the security layer completely which is knox. that means your phone cant isolate your private data from apps installed on it.
