[Android Apps and Games] R_Chin:
I am trying to make a command to screenshot with proximity sensor, I have the command working and all, the only problem now is that it takes screenshots randomly while in my pocket when the screen randomly wakes itself up. Is there a way to make it a more specific screenshot so that, for example I need to cover the proximity for an x amount of time?

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Portgas D. Ace:
You can add the trigger option "Display -> Display unlocked" so that the Profile is only triggered if screen is unlocked in addition to the proximity sensor and "Display on". Normally your device is not getting unlocked when you receive a notification or accidential wake up your device in your pocket ;)
[Android Apps and Games] R_Chin:
Thank you very much I was not aware of this option. I thought there was just display on or off as a trigger.
[Android Apps and Games] R_Chin:
It appears that when I add an event and do Display Unlocked the task doesn't go through, it recognizes the proximity sensor is being enabled but then doesnt continue to the screenshot command.
[Android Apps and Games] Portgas D. Ace:
Strange, the same for me. When I add the Screen Unlocked trigger option to the other two options , my exit task ResetProx gets turned into an entry task :eek:. I don't know why Tasker does not allow to add an exit task if you have the Screen Unlocked as trigger enabled, but I will have a look into it.

For other users who are new to this thread, this thread is some kind of continuation of this thread. You can have a look there for reference.
[Android Apps and Games] R_Chin:
Well its not that tasker doesn't allow exit tasks with the screen unlocked. It doesnt allow exit tasks with event triggers, dont know why it does this.

I started a new thread as it is a different topic, just a general question not based solely around the screenshot with proximity.
[Android Apps and Games] Portgas D. Ace:
Good to know, never had the problem with event based triggers and exit tasks before.

Yes, but other people might get confused if I refer to profiles I described in another thread ;) Just for clarification.
[Android Apps and Games] R_Chin:
Yea I have no idea why tasker does that. So now its back to trying to figure out almost a timer method. Oh right the other thread could be useful for reference

[Moto X Q&A] PELLET Nolwenn:
Hi everyone, I need some help to transfer files from my computer to my phone internal storage by using TWRP 2.8.5.0. Actually my computer recognise my phone as MTP but i can't transfer any files, it fails every time.

I would like to transfer a rom because I did a format system so I lost all the .zip file to be flashed, and I can't access to android anymore..

Is there other solutions to flash a rom, maybe by fastboot or something else? I really need help to fix this asap..

Thanks in advance

use an otg cable, copy the rom to the usb and then mount it

While my L90 haven't the Lollipop update I used PurpleDrake's method to root the phone and it worked well. If I knew the update would really come I would wait, but since I "un-rooted" it successfully I have to ask if his method will work again the same flawless way or if I need something different to remove the "crapware".

Hello fellow XDA community. So I just done wrapping up my first ever app on android. It's called peek now, it's a pretty minimalistic android lockscreen replacement yet it has quite some features that the stock android lockscreen doesn't offer. Thus now I'm asking for you guys' help and please just try out my app and let me know what you think, so I can deliver a better app and experience to the future users. Many thanks!!

Hey guys, saw this at Expansys USA that they are selling the c6833 model for $249.99 (Black & White models only). At this price, I might pick one up for spare.

Nice Find! but does anyone know that site? if its a good place or not?

At that price, I might have to forget about trying to find a C6806 and just jump on the C6833 ?

Yup, alot of people here on the forum have bought their z ultra, as well as other phones, from expansys-usa.com

On a side note, when I checked the site, its showing for $269.99 instead of $249.99

Typo, maybe?

Hi

I have T-MOBILE DE

Rooted S-ON with AHR ROM it was work good for more than six months the first problem was when the device reboot to recovery or bootlodaer I try to flash the AHR more time to fix but still reboot to recovery then I flash New Version of TWRP not fix I change the recovery to CWM not fix will I try all this step to fix I do big mistake I flash hpoot try to update the hpoot when my m7 is S-ON

the m7 get black screen no charges no LED when I contact to PC it QHSUSB_DLOAD

Any help I try this but not work for me

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2770684

Thanks
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
Its the only known fix. Its only supposed to work if your phone entered QHSUSB_DLOAD after you have mistakenly flashed a bad firmware. If your phone went in this mode by itself (not the direct result of a firmware flash) its most likely an hardware defect and you'll need to send your phone for repair, probably a motherboard replacement.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] marscandybars:
Sadly, t-mobile has discontinued the wizard/MDA (vario)/k-jam

Interestingly enough, they are releasing a new phone (the wing) which to be honest is just about the same as the MDA (but in my opion worse... and i wont bother to list the MANY reasons)

However. the new phone will support their MyFaves feature. And apparently in order to take advantage of this plan, you need a myfaves capable phone. But phones are windows mobile devices, which leads me to think it is more of myfaves software than an actual hardware component that would determine if you could use myFaves or not. Does anyone know if they can extract the myfaves program from a rom or not?

They have released the wm6 rom for the t-mobile dash and the updated rom can be found:

http://www.t-mobile.com/wmupgrade/

So i was thinking, if they could implement myfaves on the new dash roms, it should be possible to install a similar program to the wm6 MDAs!?

But of course, even if this were the case, they wouldn't offer it cuz they want you to buy their worthless new phone which is more of a downgrade than an upgrade.

Here is the wing:

http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/24/t-mobile-wing-htc-herald-shows-up-in-fcc/

Pretty... but sooo not worth it...

it lacks flash and is the same processor speed! Not worth the money!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] SiLeNtKiLLa:
You can actually sign up for MyFaves with our MDA,

I am currently on My Faves 2000 plan with my T-Mobile MDA, just call in say you just purchased an T-Mobile Dash and that you want to change your plan to the My Faves plan, in which I did, then just log on to t-mobile.com and set your 5 faves. They didnt ask for any info on the phone or anything, I just told them I purchased it off of ebay and just picked it up from the post office.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] marscandybars:
They "claimed" that their system over time would detect that you are not using a myfaves compatible phone, and then after a month or so, they would cancel the myfaves off the account. But the reason i ask this, is cuz their new phone will have the myfaves program integrated, which would make it easy and convenient :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] SiLeNtKiLLa:
Well I've had MyFaves over a month now, and still using it with no problems, but yes easy and convient would be cool.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] noob240:
been using my faves for a good three to four months i'd say, no probs at all, manage myfaves from the website, the quick dial plugin, forgot the name but spb has one and there are others too...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maturb:
I have installed Avast AntiTheft today on my Nexus6 and after Simulation test I can't access my phone.

It says to enter PIN to access Android Device.

Any of my PINs are not working.

I have installed CM12 today so I have no problem with loosing any data if wipe is the only solutions.

But I'm not sure if I can do this.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doitright:
Better to use FACTORY recovery for this. TWRP doesn't just "wipe" the userdata partition, it wants to do a selective clear of it.

Basically, there is a directory in the userdata partition called "media" that it tries to regard as a separate device.

The problem is in the backup functions implemented on custom recoveries. They create a backup of the userdata partition to the absolute STUPIDEST place in the entire world -- the userdata partition ITSELF.

So they have a hack separation, they leave out the media subdirectory from the backup source, and set the backup target to within that directory, then instead of performing a proper mkfs on the partition to clear it, they mount the partition (requires the pass code) and *erase* everything besides the media subdirectory.

Pretty stupid, isn't it?

** THE ONLY SANE PLACE TO BACK DATA UP TO, IS A SEPARATE DEVICE. Or in the very least, a different PARTITION.

Alternative is to clear the userdata partition with fastboot. Boot into bootloader/fastboot, and type (on your computer with the fastboot binary installed) "fastboot format userdata".

As far as the password goes, did you ever set a lockscreen security code? Maybe a pattern or pin unlock? That is what it is asking for. Its possible that the program you installed forced that down your throat with some random junk.

FYI: Google has this feature built in already, there is no need to install potentially dangerous 3rd party software. You can enable it in the program "google settings" --> security, under "android device manager". You can then go here https://www.google.com/android/devicemanager and log in with your google account to locate, lock, erase, ring, etc.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morpheus9394:
Hi All,

I currently own a HTC One M7, have done for two years now but I am thinking of getting a Note 4 and I just wanted to do some research on the difference between the flashing process compared to HTC.

On HTC you have the firmware (containing radios etc) and the ROM, with the kernel flashable as well. The ROM is based on a firmware version so it when you install a custom ROM it was always advisable to install the matching firmware first. Installing a official OTA update install the firmware and rom as one.

I know you have flashable ROM and kernel on Samsung devices but I can't remember if there is a separate firmware as well as my last Samsung device was a Galaxy Nexus.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guillemoka:
HI there, with Samsung devices you can install stock firmwares and get root via Odin, then with a recovery you can install a custom rom, change the kernel and modem. I think it's no so hard, but first read and ask
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Artasdmc:
I'm thinking of buying either Z1 Compact or LG G2 and I need to ask for Z1 Compact user experience.

LG G2 has a phenomenal 1080P display and a phenomenal camera, while Z1 compact is waterproof and has SD expansion slot.

I saw some comments about Z1 turning off for someone because of the heat, has anyone encountered this while playing something like GTA SA or other games that just suck performance?

And what would you recommend? Is Z1 Compact screen enough for internet browsing and gaming, not too small? I previously used ZTE blade which is 1x1 cm less in size than the Z1 compact. And the screen for media browsing wasn't really enough and I sometimes press the wrong key while typing something.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meloferz:
Playing Order of Chaos that sucks performance and use Internet, never turned off... Heats of course... About display... For me, it's little for games, for Internet browsing it's enough, no problem when typing. About battery life... Awesome... Every Z1C owner love battery life of this phone. I choose this phone because it's small, fits good on one hand and have awesome hardware, if you want a phone to play games and you don't have problems about size, go ahead with LG G2, if you want a phone with good battery life, small with good hardware, Z1C it's for you
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maciek602:
If it comes to me, I have encountered no problems with overheating during my 6 months experience with the phone. I would definitely recommend buying z1c. However, for mobile gaming z2 may be a better choice because of the size of the screen.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Artasdmc:
I wish I could afford it. It's almost 400 euros here and the minimum monthly wage in my country is 260 euros.

I'd go with original Z1 but it has a screen with ****ty viewing angles compared to compact.

And it is vulnerable to bending so be aware of girls sitting on your knees [emoji14]
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheEndHK:
Actually, I will suggest you to go for LG G2 because 5.2" FHD is much better experiences for media and Internet but we all love the one hand size of Z1c here and don't real care about the screen size.

Z1c is very good performance, both Z1c and G2 are powered by S800 but since Z1c used only 720P screen and spend much smaller resources, the performance and heat problem will better than G2 in reality during gaming.

I have a Sprint SPH-L710 running stock rooted 4.1.2 with the MD4 build. I haven't bothered keeping up with the latest-and-greatest, but I know I'm several Android releases behind. Last I was following it, there were some issues with 5.x and being able to root it, and I got wrapped up in some work stuff for a while and didn't keep up.

So, can someone please point me towards the best direction to get the latest-and-greatest updates from here?
