[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teller87:
Hi. Got my new galaxy s6 edge yesterday.

I have only use it one day at home with clean fingers.

IT is 3 small scatches where i use my thumb to scroll up and down on webpages.

Must spot them close under good spotlight when the screen is off but if i have the screen on and look very close on a white page i could see one of the small scratches.

Have anyone else in here the same issue?

Only used it with washed hands because i dont want this and i could return it if i want.

My old iPhone 6 had a few but it was 7 month old.

Happy for answers :)
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oliv3:
Those micro scratches are probably from the manufacture. Seems unlikely your finger or nail would cause that.

I would just exchange it, since you just got it.

I searched around and haven't seen a thread about this yet but I think we should look at the slowness of the plugin. I know that on my G4 which was OS flashed to Crossbow it's totally bogged down now. Seen some reports of others. Is this a memory leak or conflict or just a case of code needing to be optimized? I've tried a few different configs so far but can't get past it.
[General Topics] nm1k0:
ive noticed the same thing about mine. mines a g3 and it was very fast before but now its slow as heck after i installed the plug in. im not sure how to fix it. just confirming the problem on another phone.

small lag on prophet,when i press the softkeys....But overall phone speed is ok!
[General Topics] myk_83:
Processors

Hermes has a 400mhz processor, so it should be ok on there!

However, I have a Wizard, which is only 200mhz, and it is absolutely crawling using this plugin!! But it's (as far as I know) the same processor as the Touch, so what is it that's causing it to run so slowly?
[General Topics] joaosousa:
I think the problem is with the access to \windows\ folder, try to open the folder and see how many time it takes...
[General Topics] myk_83:
The only problem I have with that theory, is that I assume the HTC Touch doesn't run this slowly all the time, yet that has the same processor as the Wizard and must have the same amount of files in the Windows foler?

Hermes has a faster processor, and Prophet is probably similar in design to the Touch, so they might mask the problems a bit better than the Wizard I guess. But there must be some way of making it run faster!
[General Topics] tonydeli7:
Already done it.Without HTC Home Plugin 5- secs,with the plugin 10+... I don't use the weather item,so i'm going to delete the weather pics.... and i will post results...

Same thing...lag... BUT i hard resetted,then installed HTC Home Plugin,and it was running full speed!then installed the HTC Touch pad and lag again.... :(
[General Topics] xbiggyl:
Lagging on wizard G3

I have a G3 wizard and I'm having an incredible slowdown (both reboot and executions)

I installed the Home plug, comm man, dial pad (directly after the flash) and then installed spb pocketplus and netfront! That's all..

I can access the /windows folder in +/-13 secs
[General Topics] rjtd:
I reverted to my previous backup without the new HTC apps, and WOW!

Windows folder shows up almost instantly. Everything is alot smoother than with the Touch today plugin. But it is uglier as well.
[General Topics] adderall2:
What ROM is everyone using? Has anyone installed this on faria or most beautiful?

I know on Crossbow it slows down with just the today plugin installed.
[General Topics] triplejay:
Homeplug disgustingly slow on prophet here (latest Pdaviet rom, 234mhz), ....And then after I put the touch dialler on as well....Ugh! ...

ended up having to keep soft resetting just to stop unwanted dialling from tapping!

Interesting about the windows folder as for me, xp is taking forever to open this folder too. Looks like a hard reset is due....then I'll try again
[General Topics] Expander:
In fact, it seems every Touch application (dialer, htc home plugin, maybe even the sound manager?) slows the device a factor, but the home plugin is the worst.

I played with installing and uninstalling them after a hard reset. I agree it seems like the fuller the \Windows folder, the slower the device, but indeed that makes no sense.

Using Faria's latest, err, lets call it "10.1.0.811 WWE" on my Wizard. XM6?
[General Topics] fallenczar:
it has tons of pngs that it loads into the /window folder which lead to the explorer taking a lonfg time to open it
[General Topics] TheWizzard2203:
Just wanna report the same slowness on my MDA Vario G4@mfrazzz wonderfull XM6. But the looks are great, the slowlyness sucks. So does this mean that the plugins have to be optimized or can it be done through the registry?
[General Topics] rjtd:
After hard-reset I installed Dialer, and the phone was sluggish again, even without the today homeplug...
[General Topics] TheWizzard2203:
I guess it also has something to do, like already was said, with the graphical aspect of it. Many png's in the windows folder which are loaded for displaying everything that nice.
[General Topics] fallenczar:
will one of you see if chabging the attributes of the png (to hidden,system,...) will change anything?
[General Topics] adderall2:
My windows folder is taking 31 sec to load up. I made all png files (about 1.4 meg worth) both hidden and system. Windows folder still takes 30 seconds to load. General responsiveness of the device did seem to get faster but I can't tell if it's that or the fact I flashed the official MS WM6 rom. Seems like since the plugin still references them it's taking up resources. Any way we can pack those into the plugin exe or would placing these in rom or extended rom speed up the process?

The plugin with official wm6 seems faster then xm6. Not talking smack, just an observation. I can't try NBD 7.0 since it won't flash properly but I've heard that's the fastest w/ plugin so far.

Hi Guys: I have installed the HTC Home plug in my Hermes but the space reserved to the plugin icons is ... empty. No icons. What am I missing?

Yup it slows down my 8125 a lot too...dont think we can use home plug in with wizards...

maybe i will use it when i buy a hermes...;)
[LG Nitro HD] MikeJewski:
Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone would be able to help. I have an old Nitro HD that I wanted to boot up and mess around with, but nothing happens when I start it. When I plug it in, the screen is black and the 3 buttons at the bottom start flashing. I know this happens when the battery is low, so I let it charge for 45 minutes. The flashing stopped and it won't respond to any input now. Any ideas?
[LG Nitro HD] matt4:
Remove Battery. Reinsert. Works on my phone.
[Other SmartWatches] Lokifish Marz:
If this goes anywhere I'll contribute, and also see if I can get Watch U Seek involved.

Maybe a WUS/XDA collaborative work smartwatch? If that happened, that alone would have a lot of pull in both the traditional and smartwatch communities.
[Other SmartWatches] simple1i:
XDA/WUS watch project

For those that dont know WatchuSeek is the largest watch forum, [MENTION=3795702]Lokifish Marz[/MENTION] - would you like to post a thread on WUS or shall I, its just that you'll receive more attention or I can start it and you can add your support?

CEO of OnePlus, Pete Lau's excellent interview, one former hardware employee of Oppo that made a successfull product in 1.5 years with only five employees. How did they start? With lots & lots of community ideas, we (the XDA community) to a certain extent already have loads of ideas and feedback already, we have learned a lot of the Omate Truesmart watch failure and Lokifish Marz has (i'm sure others too) have already attempted the first iteration, this is all feedback and ideas to base the new watch on.

[MENTION=4372730]E:V:A[/MENTION] - you mentioned - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52695562&postcount=28 -

What do you say?
[Other SmartWatches] Lokifish Marz:
Get as many core points covered as possible (devs and the like), then approach WUS members. I'm still pretty much unknown there (most of my stuff is in the Russian section) but have no issue posting on WUS once HW/SW folks are on board. I suggest this route because traditional watch lovers are a very hard sell and the more flashed out it is, the greater chance of getting folks on board.

Like I've said elsewhere, my ideas at this point are up for grabs so here's a partial list off the top of my head;

PCB and battery same size as display or smaller

Design it as if it's a dial and movement, allowing for greater case variation

1-2mm border between edge of display and case max

Dress = 1 crown, no pushers

Sports = 1 crown, 2 pushers

Diver = same as sports but sealable mic port and functional bezel

42mm or smaller (the big watch thing is starting to go out of style anyways)

Square designs based in iconic square watches

I also personally suggest Acrylic "crystals" on certain models. The may be easier to scratch but near impossible to shatter, and most scratches can be buffed out.

I also suggest playing with the concept of lume in the display itself on certain models. It has some technical hurdles but has a number of advantages. One being that as long as you have a light source (flashlight, etc) you can "recharge" the "secondary passive backlight" (lume) and get a couple hours of night adjusted eyesight visibility without the use of a backlight. The battery savings is obvious.

In response to your list;

Set standards, warranty terms and procedures early and stick to them. Back it up with people that care and know the product first hand

Don't approach the market until a fully functional prototype with all the features exists.

Don't offer it til in a position where all you need to do is send the money to the ODM for production of the final product.

Not sure about the get part but, the team needs to be seen as being a part of the device itself. I even had the idea of using microdots or micro engraving the teams names into the inside of every watch. The physiological reasons are obvious. If there is a pay thing, that's what business planners and accountants are there for.
[Other SmartWatches] simple1i:
[MENTION=3795702]Lokifish Marz[/MENTION] - I see this will take a lot of planning, I haven't forgotten, I'm thinking things thru.

The most important question is, will this project be for a stand-alone or a notifier? This will determined what support we'll get form the community.
[Other SmartWatches] vanionbb:
Greetings,

I am a senior Electrical Engineer with 9 year experience and I do PCB design for a living. I am interested in helping this project. To start with, we need a list of what we want / need in the design, a wish list. From there we can put together a plan for building the circuit board, the specifications document. Let me know if you can use me. I do have access to PCB layout and design tools, and experience using them.
[Other SmartWatches] chainsol:
As long as you dont mind MIPS android, you could use the M200, from igenic. They provide Android or linux based sources, and the newton2 dev chip is cheap, $100.

Edit: I forgot to add: 1.2 gHz plus a low power core, along with active voice recognition.
[Other SmartWatches] kuronosan:
If you get this off the ground, I will help with UI, concept, and clock design and offer any other assistance I can provide.
[Other SmartWatches] simple1i:
I know we don't have enough support at the moment, but can we start with some ideas based on past experiences.

Standalone like the InWatch Z or a notifier like the Qualcomm Toq? Both of these examples are best thing we have to a decent attempt at a smartwatch.

Should we build a notifier or a Standalone? Or like the LG Urbane both.

One idea I've been thinking about, would a color screen like the new Pebble Time work with Android? I don't think it would handle video, the battery life would be an advantage.
[Other SmartWatches] Pseud O'Nym:
I don't think a standalone device is really practical as a first try. I believe there are regulations in the EU and US, regarding basebands and IMEIs, that the small Chinese companies just ignore. Also, if you are thinking of using off-the-shelf cases then getting decent reception for phone antenna becomes a big problem and using a special strap for it, as some manufacturers do, would not be an option.

As someone who has been wearing a Mimi mi-w3 for the last few months I would never again consider a watch that doesn't have an always on, sunlight readable screen and I suspect that may well be true for many other people. Perhaps you could put together some kind of poll or survey?
[Other SmartWatches] PolishPoet:
You're 100% right about the W3. It would really be hard to go back to a watch that was unreadable out doors.
[Other SmartWatches] Lokifish Marz:
Ingenic has been at the top of my list for some time for those very reasons.

Companion should be first. The display is a preference thing. I don't like E-Ink due to it's low ppi, poor refresh rates and ghosting. A smooth UI will require something else. I still think transflectives are the way to go for a number of reasons, and a black transflective (Sony SW2) is better than silver (inWatch). I still have yet to play with the secondary backlight but will as soon as I figure out what smartwatch to sacrifice to test it.

I saw your post about a case in another thread. The problem with most smartwatch cases is they are not designed to the same standards as a traditional case. There are also far more watch case manufacturers than smartwatch case manufacturers due to smartwatches being completely in-house. That allows for more base variations and most likely lower costs.

Off topic- Latest watch project. Original on the left, finished mod on the right.
[Other SmartWatches] chainsol:
Standalone

Remember for standalone: we'd have to go through all of the certifications for connections in the us, and for Android in general, to have google apps, we'd have to pay for inspection: 25 to 75k.
[Other SmartWatches] Lokifish Marz:
Straight Android = No official certification, ever.

Wear = Google partners only.

Linux = No limitations, but it has to be a truly complete package.
[Other SmartWatches] chainsol:
Aha, I misread an article slightly, we'd be using a pretty standard version of Android, with no competition to Google, so you are absolutely right.
[Other SmartWatches] kuronosan:
It's easier to go companion and add features than standalone and add companion.
[Other SmartWatches] l.capriotti:
In terms of open-source smartwatch,there is an important development going on here!

Check the github repo, it's almost ready!
[Other SmartWatches] simple1i:
First a watch...

So as long as we don't have huge opposition (which is unlikely) it's agreed then, we'll build a companion watch.

But like most 'everyday watch' it needs lots of functions that make it a good watch first, that can also do excellent notifications. My backup & most trusted watch is a Casio Protek, it just works all the time . . . can't really afford a Rolex, which also 'always works' too with greater style & class. But I must say as classless as a Casio may be to some, its like a Toyota, not much to look at, but reliable. No offence to anyone, I have both.

By a good watch, I mean stylish, durable with enough functions that it can be used/worn without a phone, as a time peice, as a sports aid with lots of sensors to make it alive. So in a matter of speaking it needs to be a like a standalone minus the SIM.

Still lots of discussion about the hardware is needed, but we really need to also start a serious and challenging discussion about the software/OS, here's where most smartwatch' fail, however we have a huge pool of talent on XDA. I intentionally haven't posted any announcement on the other (Sony, Samsung, Pebble) forums, because we need to get some general idea for the software first then get others to help develop those ideas, else we'll might be flooded with too many suggestions.

So software?

Web OS, no or no? [emoji51]

Wear is a no & can't

Linux was mentioned...?
[Other SmartWatches] Lokifish Marz:
Linux for the Ingenic is available and GPL compliance should not be an issue. Would be a foundation and up build which is more difficult, but could be tailored specifically to our needs unlike Android or Wear.

WebOS has a lot of potential and is open source as well but HW specific source may not be available for Ingenic. That requires somebody very familiar with WebOS to work with Ingenic on building it. Again, compliance should not be an issue.

NucleusOS may be an option but not sure if they have an Ingenic build and full GPL compliance may be an issue.

Anybody here familiar with what going on the BSD side of things? I ask because GPLv2 and GPLv3 are not compatible with each other and allows for proprietary code to be withheld. BSD licenses are more a "as long as you give me credit" type setup and is far more open/flexible than GPL.

If I missed anything let me know.

Hey guys!

I want to replace my stock keyboard (I'm 100% stock now) with a blackout one. I downloaded MultiThemed-GoogleKeyboard-4.0.21203.apk from TeamBlackout's app, but I can't find the location of the stock keyboard in /system to replace it. I found a latinime keyboard in /system/app and tried replacing that, but nothing happened. Any help is appreciated!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
the latinime in /system/app/ IS the stock keyboard
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ragnarokx:
Really? Because I moved my blackout keyboard apk to /system, renamed, changed permissions, and then moved it to overwrite the stock keyboard, and the keyboard was unchanged.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
try deleting the stock keyboard, reboot, then place the blacked out version in there instead(and reboot so itll install itself).
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ragnarokx:
Just getting constant force closes from the keyboard now :/ Maybe this needs to be put in a zip and flashed in TWRP. Guess I'll try that later. Thanks for the help.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] gsilverstein30:
Hi All,

I'm sure I am just doing something dumb. I am S On, Unlocked and have CM12 on my phone happily for quite some time. I need to go back to a stock or at least no ASOP rom so I can change the phone over to another service (need to use the # # 72786 #)

When I flash anything other than CM12 however the flash works but then I am stuck in a boot looop. I am using TWRP 2.8.5.0 has anyone had this issue?

Any help would be appreciated trying to swap this phone over to my GF's line ASAP.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] coal686:
Since you are s-on, you may have to flash the boot.img from the ROM separately using fastboot. Not sure if it will help, but it's worth a try. Also, make sure you are wiping data, system, cache, and dalvik.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
Did you happen to use CyanogenMod Installer to unlock and root?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] tdhite:
If you modified (or allowed such modification) to use f2fs on /data, you likely need to RUU, otherwise just reformat those in recovery, but backup first.

To find out:

1) open a terminal on android, or 'adb shell' to your device;

2) issue the command that follows:

mount >/sdcard/mount.log

3) Post that file here -- we can see then what you have.

Hi everyone

I am using a glass screen protector but i am very unpleasant from this ugly frame on my screen from the halo effect . Should i consider a regular plastic one ? I heard it can cause some drags with s pen
[Galaxy Note 4 General] monkor:
Do you mean the rainbow colors around the screen? Yeah that happened to me as well. I got used to it, but even if a plastic screen protector got rid of it, I'm not going back to them.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] M7md3li:
I'm really really want to use it naked but i also want to protect the screen - the best thing in the phone - from any damage i also heard that the metal frame lose it's shinning if not covered by a case . But i have an idea , what about 3rd party metal frame to cover the original one ?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] willstay:
Mine is still in pristine condition. I remember hitting hard surface few times but luckily no scratches in the metal frame. But there are microscopic hairline scratches in the screen that are only visible in reflection under certain light and certain angle. The scratches are so faint that I have to spend several minutes relocating them. I am totally convinced this phone can go naked if you baby it.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] M7md3li:
UPDATE

today i purchase non glass screen protector from samsung , it is MAGNIFICENT, no space around the edges and you barely can tell that there's a screen protector on the screen

Iam very happy ??
