[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wired335:
My Z3 has been making this "creaky, crackling" noise from the back of the phone when I'm wiping smudges off of it. Sounds more like when your walking on thin ice or your putting the battery cover on a Samsung device than the glass is actually cracking.

Is this something to be concerned about? Should I ask Rogers to send me a new device (Which will be a refurb at this time)

thanks

If anyone wants to ask the developers for some app or some kind of port just add it to replys please.

1) Xperia z3 system ui.

2)Xperia z3 lockscreen with that nice effect.

Hi

I installed the German lollipop a few weeks agin and read that UK will be coming soon and it will just require the CSC to ensure that OTA still occurs in future for us in the Uk.

I assume I'll need to do this through Odin, but can someone let me know what the difference is/what CSC does?

Hello everyone,

For my senior project of an English class, I have decided to make a very basic app to accompany a website which a previous student created. I want it to be basic but the issue I am having is that I do not understand how to make it so that a person clicks on a button, and it takes them to that url of the website (basically webview in a fullscreen activity for each of the buttons in the tab). I have managed to get a version of this working with the master/detail flow activity but I cannot translate it to work with the navigation drawer activity. I am willing to pay for assistance as I understand everyone has their own lives. I am learning all of this as I go so I do not have a background in this, however, I am very interested in this project and I do not want anyone to just do the work for me. I would just like someone I could ask an occasional question when in need. Thank you for reading.

I know this is an obvious factor but I get the most battery drain while the screen is on. I am talking that I see the battery drain 1 % percent almost every minute. Im running Firekat V10 and keep the auto brightness at auto. I haven't made any other modification apart from the tips he gives in his post. Anything you guys have done to improve your screen on time is would be very much appreciated.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VeNuMuS:
Seems about right. Could also be a number of factors such as, being on LTE, what app is running, the services in the background etc. If your screen was off when all this was happening then that would be a problem.

So here's a question, did you have the same experience on other roms? That is slightly excessive, what are you doing to loose 1%a minute, are you gaming, watching videos, or just reading text based Web pages? gaming 1% a minute is probably Alright but not just surfing Web crap.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mu5ic92:
General browsing on the web. This might not be related but I have noticed some weird behavior with my phone. An example: I lower my media volume to zero and put the phone on mute, if I go into an app like instagram and I see a video even if my volume is off I can hear my speaker turn on and hear static. When I check my BBS I see audiomix has been used for about 50 mins which dosent seem normal.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BACARDILIMON:

Have you greenified your apps?

Firekat has incredible battery life. There is post after post in Mega's thread about how good it is.

Did you dirty flash?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdidtht:
You can greenify whatever you want, but the drain he's describing has nothing to do with greenify, I find that app highly overrated, I pull pretty badass life without it and it doesn't vary much across twiz roms, all roughly the same give or take a bit. Lots of people swear by it, not me. He is most definitely having some issue with the rom, for sure.

Does anyone know if I can set the battery saver to a timed mode like priority mode on the nexus 6 normally when I go to bed I would like for it to turn on. Any suggestions? I had du battery saver pro but doesn't work anymore on lollipop the LTe doesn't shut off. That eats most of the battery

Second question also if someone was to steal PR I was to los my nexus 6 will it be rendered useless like the iPhone or can someone just get into TWRP and reflash and reset it?

Hello everyone,

with great pleasure I would like to introduce my new app L Lockscreen

L Lock Screen is an app with which you can have on your device the Lock Screen of the new version of Android Lollipop.

With this app you will have access to your notifications right on your lock screen.

You can access the app that you have notified an event directly touching it.

You can go into the details of the notifications by performing a swipe down where you will have the direct actions.

Carrying out a notification Swipe side on the other hand can easily delete it.

Also through a simple swipe you can unlock the phone, make a call or access the camera.

In addition to this there are selectable image as wallpaper of the lock, or you can choose an image from the gallery or directly the one set for the home.

Through the appropriate configuration section you can:

- Enable / Disable the L Lockscreen

- Select an image from the gallery to use as a lock screen wallpaper

- Enable / Disable sound unlock screen

- Enable / Disable the vibration

- Enable / Disable Pin code

Important:

Allow access to notifications to this' app to use it 100%.

It would be wonderful if you give me some feeback both positive and negative, so that step to improve it on the advice of other developers.

What else to say, try it !!! And I hope you like it

If there is any info left after you wipe, then you aren't doing a full wipe. What recovery are you using, and what steps are you taking to wipe?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Just flash a stock ROM with ODIN if you can't do it from recovery or the phone for whatever reason, wipes the phone clean
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koragg97:
Flashing a stock ROM doesn't wipe the phone. I flash stock a lot of times and it restores the system so that my phone cam boot up again but all my previous data is still there, untouched.

Using ODIN?

That's contrary to everything I've heard about using ODIN, every single tutorial, person Ive read using ODIN states that it wipes the phone clean

EDIT - I see there is a "NAND Erase all" check box on ODIN

[Xperia Z1 Android Development] optimumpro:
For those who are interested in encrypting the data partition. Remember, there is no longer any visible slowdown. What you need to do before or after encryption is to enable "Disable HW overlay" in Developer Options. There is a catch, though: this won't stick after reboot unless you implement an init.d script that will take care of this.

Here is the script : http://d-h.st/QIiE

Download the script by using the blue button (unless you want their ridiculous exe. download manager)

Put the script into /system/etc/init.d with at least 750 permission and reboot. You will see that Disable HW overlay option is ticked by default.

Also, I recommend ADB shell encrypting, as opposed to doing it from Security menu for several reasons: first with ADB you are not limited by 16 characters, you can use a passphrase that you can remember and no one can break; second, in Security menu, encryption will use your pin password (which is short) to encrypt. Remember, you only need a long passphrase to boot, and if your rom has "soft reboot", you don't need to enter password at all. Here is how to do it:

1. Go to Security menu and enable Pin/Password/Pattern or None. Your screen password could be short, as it is independent from boot password.

2. Next, pick a long boot password. You need to convert it into hex: just use this site https://www.online-toolz.com/tools/text-hex-convertor.php for conversion. Now, copy your hexed password (for future pasting).

3. Next, go to Developer Options and enable ADB; Root for ADB + APPS

4. Connect your phone to your computer

5. Open Terminal and type "adb shell" without quotes and press enter

6 Then type "su" also no quotes and press enter

7. Now type the following without quotes: vdc cryptfs enablecrypto inplace password HERE PASTE YOUR ACTUAL HEXED PASSWORD and press enter. Remember, don't type HERE PASTE YOUR PASSWORD, instead paste your hexed password there.

8. After you press enter, your phone will reboot and start encrypting. In a few minutes, you will get another reboot and a prompt for boot password. Here, enter your actual password (not the hexed one). Your phone will boot and you can check in the Security options that your phone is encrypted.

Enjoy.

[Xperia Z1 Android Development] optimumpro:
Encryption has nothing to do with gapps crashing. The only thing that could be related is android_logger=n in kernel. I guess gsf can't log your every key stroke without that function in kernel. So, any other lp kernel would do. I may recompile the kernel with that option on.

The only two roms that work with Xposed Xprivacy from start are my versions of Resurection Remixed and Slim LP (remember, I have SElinux disabled in my kernels). So, if you want those, flash Resurection, then install your favorite apps including Xposed and Xprivacy, then backup the data. Then do a clean flash of Validus, then flash Xposed binary (before rebooting), then restore Data from Resurection and reboot. It works. If you look at screenshots I posted, you will see I have Xprivacy working.

I'm currently trying to mount the sdcard which is ext4 formatted. I can mount it manually via the shell, but vold won't notice any of that. I guess I need to figure out how to persistently change /fstab.qcom file.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] optimumpro:
You need to put encryptable there, but I am not sure it could be done without changes to vold.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] ggs2:
Yes, I did these things

A)Wiped all my data/existing ROM

B) Installed your RR,installed Xposed/xprivacy. (seemed to work fine in RR)

C)in recovery (TWRP 2.x), backed up data, wiped data, installed Validus rom, installed xprivacy-zip, restored data, rebooted -->stuck in bootloop from then.

I would have stayed on RR, but can't as it has very very low LED. I hope after restoring data from RR (If it works) validus will have proper LED.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] optimumpro:
Led light is in kernel, so you can use Resurect with Validus kernel.

will try tonight and update if it works. Thanks for reply

Edit:Used resurrect with validus kernel, Led lights Works as long as gapps are not installed. Once I install gapps, led again stops working
