[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siavoshkc:
So if I get cm-11-20141112-SNAPSHOT-M12-encore.zip, how can I tell which gapps should I use? Now that I am doing it again. Why not installing the last version...

Thank you

[edit]

Found this: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps

And remembered that I must had the correct version installed from the start. Anyways I will get the latest snapshot (the one I mentioned and will get the gapps for it).
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
Yes, the versions must match each other. If you are going to update CM to CM11, you must use CWM 6045 or newer too.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siavoshkc:
I am using TWRP. Should I wipe my ROM?

[edit]

And where can I find CWM? TWRP gave error on cm11!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
You are using too old a version of TWRP. Both CWM and TWRP must be newer versions for CM11 and above.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siavoshkc:
TWRP has no new version for nook. On CWM I searched a lot. Couldn't find a bootable SD image.

hey, is there a way to swap my sd card to internal? becouse i have a 32GB sd card and i want to make it as my internal storage. i am rooted and have custom recovery bootloader locked.

thanks!
[Sony Xperia M2] iFlashed:
Hmmm... that so difficult, but apps like Link2SD or FolderMount can help you :)
[Sony Xperia M2] ~Patryk:
You can create ext partition on sdcard via Partition Wizard. It works for me. :)
[Sony Xperia M2] supertiger1234:
soo if i make an partition on sd card with partition wizard will the phone instantly find out?

Thanks
[Sony Xperia M2] supertiger1234:
yaa i tryed that but i hate to do it manually all the time.

thanks!
[Sony Xperia M2] Miche1asso:
I doubt Android will recognize (and use) an ext partition in the micro SD without telling it to do so. What you'll need to do is the following:

- Root your phone

- Partition the SD card

- Install Link2SD

- Tell Link2SD to put the new apps in the external partition. You can also move manually int the SD card the apps you like, and then they stay there.

Maybe it's possible to modify some system scripts to mount the external partition as the main partition, but that must be done before Android kicks in (i.e. just before the init boot process ends). I made an /etc/init.d script for GingerBread that was generic enough (it worked on different phones), but with the rooting methods (and scripts) we have for our phone on KitKat I think any script in /etc/init.d gets executed too late for it.

Still, Link2SD is your best option. It works just fine. Otherwise, if you want to install games with large obb files you can use Folder Mount. You still need root but there is no need to partition the SD card. Also it is smart enough to recognize which folders should be mounted (up to 2 in the free version).

Hi,

You could try to install xposed and Xinternalsd module ;) Works fine for me

Just noticed that Google services was updated to include on-body detection, which allows your device to remain unlocked while you're carrying it around. Have yet to play around with it long enough to see if works well.
[X 2014 General] grubber24:
Yes it does work well. Only getting a slight impact on the battery with which i can very well adjust.

Sent from my XT1092
[X 2014 General] floepie:
Curious: How are you able to determine its impact on your battery life. My battery life fluctuates greatly on a daily basis, so much so that there is no way I could ever extract such info.
[X 2014 General] grubber24:
Until i enabled the option i used to get 5+ hours SOT and the battery lasted for around 18 - 20 hours.

Since i enabled it it lasts for 4-4.5hrs SOT and around the same standby.

The only variable changed was smart lock on body detection was enabled.

Though the impact is not so much. But easily came to my notice.

Sent from my XT1092
[X 2014 General] floepie:
Wait, so you're willing to say that this feature alone is responsible for an average 15% battery hit. That's not even remotely slight. That would be outright scandalous. I don't doubt what you see, but there are just too many variables at play.
[X 2014 General] grubber24:
The other variable that might be at play is that the trusted places that has stopped working and that might be trying to poll my location. Other than that no other variable (including the signal strength) has changed. So i could isolate the problem to the whole smart unlock features. I will turn it off once and report my findings here.

[X 2014 General] Dark9781:
Starting using On-body detection and found that if you turn your screen off then put the phone down it will remain unlocked. You have to pit it down and let the screen turn off by itself.
[X 2014 General] grubber24:
For me it locks after a couple of minutes when kept down on a flat surface. And it works irrespective of whether i lock it before or not. I checked this with 2 other phones with this feature available.

[X 2014 General] pro.gangster:
I don't get how it works, anybody could carry my phone and unlock it? Or it continues to keep my phone unlocked when I unlock it with every other methods?
[X 2014 General] grubber24:
Its not another smart unlock method used to skip the secured lock. It just keeps the phone unlocked while the phone is in your hand or in your pockets through the various sensors present on the phone.

You may get screwed if someone snatches the phone while your are using it that's the worst case scenario.

[X 2014 General] grubber24:
Hello.

There are many variables working together affecting the battery life.

1. Signal Strength: where i live i get a very strong signal so the phone has to work less to get the signal.

2. Using wifi: all the result i stated was on wifi with preferred network set to 2g.

3. Location: This is funny, i get better results when on high accuracy as the phone is located faster and thus the CPU consumed by the gps is much less. Here too wifi helps.

4. Moto Apps: i use drive assist only when m going out. Home, sleep and meeting are also on.

5. Sync: i have kept the sync settings in google to minimal. Only gmail, G+ and calendar are synced.

6. Daily Restart: i restart my phone daily to keep away from nasty memory leaks and app restarts which affect performance and battery.

7. Other Apps: use mostly amoled friendly apps with manual syncing. That too not too many apps are installed.

These settings will increase standby time. Note that you actually have to use the phone to get better sot within the battery cycle. ;)

Hi,

I have done an upgrade to the version in title (build n° LRX 22C) and for a usual splash screen activity I'm getting the error

[MX Player] andy_d0:
I keep running into space issues as my tablet only has 16gb on board and part of the reason is that MX Player seems to be auto generating thumbnails. I actually don't need or want thumbnails to be generated - is there a way to disable? Or write to an external card?

Though, it would be even better to know why the thumbnail folder size would even be that big
[MX Player] josuearisty:
Wow thats too much, where is it located? Its really insane!

To disable cache thumbnails, go to settings>general>cache thumbnails and uncheck!
[MX Player] andy_d0:
It's in /storage/emulated/legacy/.thumbnails

I actually unchecked that though the images came back. The only other app I can think of is Plex but I have plex on my phone and use it - it never generates such a large folder

I also tried creating a symlink to move it off local storage but that keeps failing
[MX Player] josuearisty:
These thumbnails aren't only generated by mx player, I have quickpic installed and this app is really a headache!

Hello my Andriod fans. First u will have to excuse me if i involuntary broke some rules of forum and about my grammar. I know u must heard and saw a lot of inquiries of such but please bear with me.

I need your help(advice).

I am in a quarrel with my self about whether to keep 5.1 or revert back to 4.4.4.

5.1 seems to me glichy and feels still unfinished. What are your advices? What are differences in battery and overall performance of OS-s.

And if by any chance could u give me step by step guide to downgrade i would appreciate.

P.S.

Mobile in question is Nexus 5.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhyscoAssassinx:
Nexus 5 wise I believe 4.4.4 was its prime best battery life, best performance, to downgrade you have to root, install twrp, downloaded the stock 4.4.4 rom

[MENTION=6560145]Ilerein[/MENTION]

Battery life on 5.1 (LMY47I) is so far the best. I was downgraded to 4.4.4 twice, but trully 5.1 is much faster and better looking (for me of course.

So. I would suggest you first to read those 2 sticky threads in general: http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/general/tutorial-how-to-flash-factory-image-t2513701 and http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/general/noob-read-adb-fastboot-how-hep-t2807273. Further, in my opinion just learn to install TWRP and root your device. You can than delete some unnecessary stuff from your phone, but remember, allways backup before.

Happy flashing, rooting, moding and breaking your nerves. :)

I dont know for me 5.1 seems slugish and bugy as heck. And some vids i checked sugest that performance wise 4.4.4 is superior. I dont know my self anymore.

Hey Everyone,

I just purchased a Logitech v270 BT Mouse for my laptop. I've read somewhere that there's a generic / unlocked BT Mouse Driver floating around for WM5. I searched / googled all over the place but all I came up with is the Thinkoutside locked BT mouse driver (locked to only Thinkoutside BT mice). Does anyone know where I can download the unlocked / generic driver?

Does anyone have the unlocked driver / BT Mouse HID and would email it to me at rz1_stuff@yahoo.com?

I would very very much appreciate any help or links on where to find the BT Mouse Driver / HID software.

Thanks in advance. :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] sinmae:
wow, I never thought, that this should be a problem. The truth is, that I tested only BT keyboard (few logitech KB´s) and I had no problem. I used BT Broadcomm stack. If I remember correctly, it was one simple application, which allows you to connect standard USB mouse throught USB host (with external power supply in some cases). I used it for a while on my previous pda - FS Loox n500. It worked, but not so stable. On screen was a little cursor, but it dissapear randomly. I never heard about driver for hermes... Try to look to Fujitsu-Siemens forums. Maybe you can find answers there. I am currious about sollution.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] joel32137:
Hey sinmae,

I have no problems with BT keyboards as well. The issue with mice is the mouse pointer arrow (not native to WM5) .... there needs to be software to create the pointer arrow in WM5 so the arrow moves around like it does on a desktop OS. In WM5, I'm able to pair the BT Mouse with a typical MS BT Stack or Widcomm Stack.... the problem is rendering the pointer arrow and moving it around. I read in another post that there's a hacked unlocked Thinkoutside BT Mouse driver but I can't seem to find in. I'll take your advice and search the Fujitsu-Siemens forum. Do you have link to the Fujitsu-Siemens forum you're talking about?

Thanks

Hey bobstarina,

Is it possible if you can email me the WM2003 driver/cab if you have it at rz1_stuff@yahoo.com?

Have you already tried the driver on WM5?

What happens? Just curious.

Thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] joel32137:
Question to anyone with experience hacking drivers,

Since I'm able to download a locked WM5 version for the BT Mouse driver from Thinkoutside:

http://www.thinkoutside.com/support/download.asp?did=161&pid=10&link=/support/Download%20Support/PPC5/En/dr/Think%20Outside%20ppc5%20En.zip

Is difficult (with the right tools) to hack the installer/cab to make it unlocked for any BT Mouse?

I'm hoping the driver is merely filtering device IDs specific to ThinkOutside's mice. I can easily get the device ID of my VT270 from my laptop using Device Properties....

What tools/software are recommended?

I've never hacked a driver before other then hacking a Widcomm Driver where I had to add my device ID to an .ini file using a basic text editor.

If I am successful hacking this driver, I would most certainly share it with the rest of the community :)

Please Help :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] greyhulk:
So, I really love this phone. Despite not being able to get it sim unlocked yet, I find that I'm even more satisfied with it than I expected. There's just one glaring issue: Battery drain, specifically at idle.

I have tried everything: Uninstalled/disabled all apps that I didn't need, used App Opps to turn off "keep awake" for just about everything that I could. Nothing works. Last night, I left it off the charger with 100% and 8 hours later, it was down to 50%. It loses 5-7%/hr at idle without doing anything at all. I'm in a high signal area. I tried charging it to full and turning off wifi. That had no effect either.

I'm seriously torn between wanting to return it because I can't even get through a single day on a charge and really wanting to keep it because the camera and screen are so awesome. I'm sure there will be an update down the road that will fix this and I don't think my device is defective. This drain definitely isn't normal.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] jzero88:
Do a hard reset and see if that works.

If not take it in to tmobile, do a hard reset there And let it sit for 20 minutes and show them the idle battery drain.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] greyhulk:
I'm not wiping my brand new phone that has been doing this since I pulled it out of the box. A hard reset is not the answer to everything. There's definitely something wrong with the the software build.

It's my fault, of course. I should have added "in b4 do a hard reset" at the end of my post.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] altimax98:
I know it sucks but try and tough it out. There is a massive issue relating to WiFi on this device right now. I am doing some testing but I think proof can be found in that when you turn off WiFi but WiFi calling was enabled in the dropdown you will fail to get cellular signal back at all. It will stay "Searching" all the time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] greyhulk:
Yeah, I have tried leaving Wifi off completely, but I'm still draining pretty fast. The problem is, the phone is almost unusable for me like this because I can't even make it to the end of the day if I use it at all. And since I rooted, any update they release is going to be a pain to apply.

I blame 5.01, to be honest. The best thing Samsung could do is rush out a 5.1 update.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] Ritual82:
Same thing was happening to my phone out of the box as well, something was keeping it from deepsleep, did a hard reset, put all the same apps on. Now it sleeps like a baby.

I should note that battery life still isn't great but it does last me through a whole day, still getting high cell stand by drain.

From the Moderator

OK People, Cleaned this chaos and trolling.......

Post respectfully or ........DO NOT POST........... easy

To your battery issues......... these issues are pretty much the same with all phones, so the fixes are pretty much the same\

Hard rest

Go into the menu and disable apps that are pinging GPS

Freeze apps that you do not need -if you are rooted then use titanium back up to freeze or other app that does the same - if you are rooted I would disable any updates from the Carrier or Samsung- that means disabling the patches/apps that control those.

Turn off WiFi and Bluetooth when not using it

Avoid leaving social media apps running in the background they can be battery hogs.......

This is what was recommended in 2010 ........... still pretty much good advice ........

The next person that posts disrespectfully or trolls will be met with an infraction

Keep kind and civil and ON TOPIC ONLY
