[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stl1859:
After switching to Apex launcher, and turning off the other two gestures in the Settings, I have had no instances of missed double taps. It was pretty reliable to begin with, but yes, I was noticing some drops. But those are now gone.

I know everyone is complaining of UI lag - which is indeed present. However I decided to do a more real world test. I loaded up WatchESPN, OSMonitor, Play Store,

Gmail, Firefox (with Engadget open), Two camera apps, Hangouts, Play Newsstand, HBO Go, Google Photos, ES File Explorer, N7 Music Player, YouTube and MX Player. After loading all these up one after another, I started Nokia Here Maps - and asked it to locate an address on the other side of town and compute point to point directions to it. It took what seemed like a blink of an eye, and it was back with the route. I then turned WiFi off ( so that it cannot hand over the task to a server in the cloud ) , and asked it to compute another route, and again it was back within a second, with multiple route alternatives. So - to me - this is a more real life use case - I will actually be using the device a lot in this fashion - and for that - it is performing quite well. In general I have noticed that the UI lag does not get worse with the number of apps loaded. So when it come to real heavy lifting, I think the device is doing pretty well .

There is a YouTube video out there today, which is claiming that the Alcatel did better than a Galaxy S6 in running multiple 3D games simultaneously. I will myself never play any games on this device . For my applications - I find the performance satisfactory. Of course, this clearly has all the 5.0 performance issues, which I am hoping will clear up with 5.1 / 5.2 update.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] famewolf:
You may want to go under developer options and try things such as disabled the animation scales or lowering them from 1.0 to .5 and possibly enabling gpu decoding of 2d content.....disabling the animation will give the ui response a bit of snappiness.

If you are running nova launcher it has it's own animation settings under "look and feel" and you can choose the "faster than light" option....I disable all the animations...I'm interested in gettings things done..not gimicks and "flash". I'm sure apex has similar settings.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stl1859:
I already have animations down to 0.5 - I am not touching anything else there. Apex has a setting to speed up some animations as well.

What is a good way to test the browser ? I am using Firefox - with adblock plus.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] famewolf:
When the phone is rooted I'll use adaway....what exactly do you want to "test"? I use lightning+ browser(lightning browser (without the +) is free) which is always nice and snappy.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeisgo:
I've found, that turning of the OS "vibrate" on tap functions seems to have improved performance for me. At the very least it feels better. I feel like i was getting 2 different vibrations when using keyboard, and it would double tap things by accident as a result. You also need to independently turn off vibration on the keyboard if you want it gone completely.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stl1859:
Has anyone noticed that transition animation scale keeps on reverting back to 1x after it has been set to 0.5x ? Does this qualify as a bug ? Or is there something I am missing ?

BTW - even with the third party launcher, I am getting unresponsive double-tap ( wake only ) occasionally, and unset/set the option always brings it back. This is something that Alcatel should be able to fix - clearly a software issue.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zapper_master:
Has anyone found a fix for this? Mine does this as well, resetting the transition scale!

Thanks

Hello. I am using Wifi tether for root users for Android (and also barnacle sometimes). These applications create an ad-hoc network so each time I can only connect my macbook with my cellphone. I would like to share the internet connection with more than 1 devices and especially my android tablet. My android tablet ( and other android devices I have ) does not recognize the ad-hoc network so I cannot connect to it at all.

In windows I could possibly use the application "Connectifyme" that would split the wifi in two networks and share the connection through the one.

Is there any way to do this using the macbook? Is there any way in gerenal to do this (even without using the macbook).

Any suggestions?

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Amplifiction:
Hi,

Xperia V here on CM11, Android 4.4.4. (Version 11-20150301-UNOFFICIAL-tsubasa, released by FreeXperia)

To my surprise, writing to SD0 (internal) and SD1 (external) is not possible. I've got a camera app asking me to insert an SD card before taking pictures.

I tried two apps that supposedly fix this problem, to no avail.

I tried editing /system/etc/permissions/platform.xml myself, but get an error every time I try to save changes to it. I even tried setting rw-/r–/r– permissions on this file and all parent folders. No dice. (Tried all this using ES File Explorer with root access.)

Looking at platform.xml, this entry is OK:

<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >
<group gid="sdcard_r" />
<group gid="sdcard_rw" />
<group gid="media_rw" />
</permission>

But this one is missing <group gid="sdcard_rw" />

<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_MEDIA_STORAGE" >
<group gid="media_rw" />
</permission>

Can anyone help me, please?

Alternatively, if anyone knows of a STABLE rom that is free of Google's BS restrictions, I'd be happy to flash it instead.

EDIT: Come to think of it, I have used this exact rom before without having this problem. What else could be wrong?

[Redmi Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superboy123:
Hi all!

I was at swimming pool and had the phone in my pocket, I didnt notice that.

After some time (20-30 mins) I found that, it was in my pocket and I took it out, the portion/area near and around the rear camera was hot (very hot!).

Took it to Bangalore MI ESC (Exclusive Service Center), Indira Nagar. They said that Motherboard went kaput and cost is Rs. 12000 (about 190$) including digitizer change (it was broken earlier).

But the phone was still turning on but it doesnt get past boot logo (MI mi.com Logo).

Me and my friend decided to open it and checked. Looks like hardware is all good and software is the problem was our guess.

The phone doesnt charge, no charging LED, not detected in PC, doesnt goes into recovery, just MI logo comes and reboots again and again!

What is the solution, Please help!
[Redmi Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superboy123:
UPDATE:

First tried flashing it with SP Flash Tool suspecting software related issues. It was like same as earlier (before flashing).

Then used hair drier, nothing.

Patience lost, searched and found my mobile screwdriver kit, fully disassembled to core and used hair drier, still nothing!

Bought some IPA (Isopropyl Alcohol) and soaked the motherboard overnight.

Checked, Again nothing!

Last step, Got a handkerchief, wrapped the motherboard, and put it in freezer for 28 hours, Checked it.

Agggaaain, notttthing!

What to do guys? I tried all methods I am aware of.

Hi,

has anybody come across the BTC Flame? I got one of the spare ones from work this week and want to have a play around with some roms.

firstly, the device is already rooted i assume as it has a super user app loaded already,

second, which rom if any, could i load on to it? im a struggling to find a rom suitable? any help on this matter would be great.

I have flashed roms before, but not since the galaxy s2, so its been a while. i am not looking for anything spectacular just a minimalist rom that has stock roms removed, a upgrade to lollipop would be nice if its possible.

tablet info:

Model Number : BTC

Android Version : 4.4.2

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optical10:
Ringtones that used to continually repeat seem to have been stopped from doing so in this 5.1 update. It's a problem because I rely on a battery level alarm which I am now missing due to the ringtone only ringing once when I'm not in the general vicinity. I spoke to the developer who is aware of this issue but as of yesterday he didn't have a solution. The update has been pushed to my Nvidia Shield tablet but currently isn't available on my Samsung Note 4 which will obviously develop the same issue using the same battery indicater app.

Just you wondering if anyone else relies on a continually repeating alarm function and how you are getting around this issue?

Try these steps .. if you're on a factory ROM still .. it should work

To perform a hard reset

1. Press and hold the left SOFT KEY and the right SOFT KEY, and at the same time, use the stylus to press the RESET button at the middle left side of your device.

2. Release the stylus, but continue pressing the two SOFT KEYs until you see the following message on the screen: “This operation will delete all your personal data, and reset all settings to manufacturer default. Press Send to restore manufacturer default, or press other keys to cancel.”

3. Release the two SOFT KEYs, and then press the button on your device. Warning! Your device will be set back to factory default settings.

I really hope that he tried to hardreset it allready before he post a thread with "My device is bricked". And when he is asking for a German RUU - i guess he cannot flash another ROM because of Vender ID.

Hello everybody!

I have a question that is more a challenge!

My problem is that while I am driving I use an aux-aux cable to listen to music.

But, if I receive a phonecall and answer, the microphone is automatically set to a low sensitivity even though the audio is going through the aux/car speakers (seems like the sensitivity for a normal phonecall). Therefore I usually put the speaker mode on for the mic to go to a high sensitivity and everything works well. However, sometimes it is hard to hear the call while driving and it would be awesome if I could use the car speakers instead with a high sensitivity mic.

I have a rooted device with Cyanogen 12 OS

Is there any solution to this? Tweaking? Using tasker/trigger or else? (I also have NFC tags in the car dock to toggle actions)

Thanks :)

Hi. My sony xperia S is stuck in a permanent Safe mode. Tryed to install different ROMS, pressing different buttons during the start of the device, taking off the battery and etc.

So here's the question . Is there a way to DISABLE safe mode? It doesnt bother me that the volume down button doesnt work, i want my phone to be ok for daily use.
