I have been using pikik for a few days and i have a few questions

1. When me and my friends are messing around and block each other in group chats once I'm bblocked my kik will constantly crash until i clear data and have to sign back in which.. I could be wrong but it happens once I'm blocked

2. I know you are making more themes and would like to know if there is going to be a red and white theme or a black and white theme? The purple really isn't my favorite but i have to keep people from lagging me?

3. I select click able links and when someone sends me a # i still can't click it. Could you please give me a way to fix this?? Please and thank you

Also there is a thing where you can have no kik name and its just a blank... I already have it but maybe you can add it into the next update
[Android Apps and Games] ODSTZ3RO:
No hash tag/link parsing is part of the anti-lagg, hashtag lag codes are pretty annoying I don't think you'd like them to be parsed. Also you can decompile Kik and make your own themes,I have mine teal ,but if you don't want to go through the hassle you can simply wait I guess. And instead of clearing data have you tried deleting the conversation that your in with them/force stopping pikik2 . If you'd like the link for a tool used to decompile Kik DM me.
[Android Apps and Games] Appreciative:
1) is a blocked message length bug. I think it was fixed in "8.4.12". We are working on another bug fix for blank media causing the same problem.

2) [MENTION=6626405]Link.exe[/MENTION] would have to answer that.

3) we have temporarily used a greedy match regex for hashtags. It will only match the first Hashtag if the message begins with it. It was originally left wide open but 2000 characters of #la#la#la#la#etc would lag some older devices.

The blank display name needs to be validated by kik. We would need to replace spaces with some allowed blank character and that seems unnecessary when you can just paste. It could also create unwanted behavior in some phones. (Some phones see blank space Unicode as boxes like unknown emojis). For right now I can't imagine this being in a release.
[Android Apps and Games] Lord_ShadowX:
What do you need, and when will pikik3 be out? I can help out getting pretty much anything if you need it.

(Note: I am available almost anytime at the current moment due to being on summer break, but I can stay up and help if needed, I am good at helping, and I enjoy to help others, also I am good at modifying things, please accept my help, it doesn't require anything for me to help, I just want to help someone with something cause I haven't exactly helped anyone in a while cause nobody has asked to...)
[Android Apps and Games] SamuelBegui:
I didn't know that Pikik3 was actually being worked on, I thought that Pikik2 was still being developed.
[Android Apps and Games] Appreciative:
You'd be correct right now.

[MENTION=6753714]Lord_ShadowX[/MENTION], thanks for the offer. If we need any help we aren't afraid to ask. Our team is currently grown into 5 and that's a pretty good number for the moment. Unless you're extremely proficient in Smali.
[Android Apps and Games] Link.exe:
Currently the only way to change the theme would be for me to create one, unless you'd like to decompile and re-color things to your liking. Which you can very well do if you'd like. I do plan on making more themes but I'm not so much taking suggestions due to the fact that it takes several hours to re-theme everything properly without taking shortcuts as you will see many other PiKik/PiKik2 knockoffs do.

---------- Post added at 02:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:30 PM ----------

There are several themes planned already, one being black and white. I currently am not taking many suggestions due to it taking at least 3 hours to fully complete a theme without taking shortcuts.
[Android Apps and Games] Lord_ShadowX:
Well, I don't exactly know if there is a pikik3 I am just offering help whenever it will be made, or I could help right now with pikik2 if you would like.

Pikik2 background-themes

It is not necessary, but I would like to say that it would be nice to be able to completely customize the texts and background for various items such as, your own and the text in messages of others. Also enable the user to change others text bubble color. Being able to change your text box(were you type) and top seat color would be nice, some might not like the purple color it is now, and also making it so people can change the icon and what the app is called would be nice. :) just in general, more customizing options would be greatly appreciated by many people. If you take this into regard as you update Pikik2 i would greatly appreciate it even more. Thank you for what you have already worked so hard to accomplish. :good:
[Android Apps and Games] ODSTZ3RO:
Wtf !!!!!!! Styles.xml won't change the text color :'( omfg don't tell me I have to go search through smali nooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I said don't ****en tell me!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Actually tell me I don't want to waste my time .

[Android Apps and Games] SamuelBegui:
Suggestion: Fluid Camera to Gallery Switch

When you send an album picture you should receive a popup asking whether to send the image as a camera picture or as a standard gallery picture. That would make switching from Camera to Gallery easier instead of having to tick the switch off in settings.
[Android Apps and Games] NGHTMRE:
I dont quite understand, is that some sort of app?
[Android Apps and Games] SamuelBegui:
When I had an iPhone 4s in the past and jailbroken, you could send either a camera or gallery app simply by tapping on the image you wish to use and the app would ask (In a popup menu) if you would like to send the image as a camera or as a gallery picture. So I figured it would be easier to select what picture it would be for kik if we had a popup show instead of having to tick the fake camera option in chat settings. It would save time
[Android Apps and Games] blackstar145601:
I like this idea.
[Android Apps and Games] blackstar1456:
Woah my account glitched.
[Android Apps and Games] Appreciative:
I understood what you meant and also like the idea. The problem at the time of writing this is I don't know why it behaves that way. It is strange behavior. The gallery invokes a preview but the camera doesn't. Unless you long press on the image and press the kik button, so it is most definitely possible.

Hunting Smali is not a fun job but I'm sure we will continue to look for a fix. It has been on our minds but not a primary concern as it does work right now.

We are doing some more updates for bugs and theme and that release should be out pretty soon.
[Android Apps and Games] blackstar1456:
Oh I understand. Hm. Yea that'd be a pain to code in.
[Android Apps and Games] KURDKiNG:
So today i was using yer teams pikik 1 and it was alright i jst loved wer i lagg evryones kik its awsome so den i upgraded to pikik 2 and amazing feuteres exempt i cant lag any one it jst a few weird numbers instead of all my hashtags, can u fix this thnk u
[Android Apps and Games] Appreciative:
Pikik nor pikik2 are released to public to CREATE lag. They're to prevent lag. Your lag send is still going through. You just see the numbers (byte length of the text you sent). So, your lag code is still sending to everyone else but if they're on pikik2, lag codes just show as numbers instead.
[Android Apps and Games] Lord_ShadowX:
Aye, I have vile kik, if I give you the file I have 2 different links, same vile, but can you mix vile with pikik2's settings in the chat? And modify however else, viles commands are

!nips

!moon

!iphone

Wot

Lenny

Note: They have to be done just as said.

P.S. if you want the file of vile and agree to mixing the 2 then PM me or message my facebook which I will PM you.

Theme

Congrats to all the devs for the app and keep up the good work.

About the theme, don't even consider taking suggestions from people because everyone will want a different color combinations and it takes too much time to create it correctly. But it's true that no matter how much I've already used Pikik I can't get used to the black parts of the app. It's awful and the grey letters on it make my eyes hurt. So what you could do is add an option to switch between a light and dark theme like most apps have. The light theme would be exactly like the official Kik app's color and the dark theme would be like the already existing theme in Pikik. You can keep the purple color on headers etc if you want since I guess purple is the signature color for the app.

To all people who want crash and lag codes to be implemented, just stop ruining other people's kik experience and wasting their time having to deal with the lag/crashes. Developers are supposed to help people with their work, not harm them.
[Android Apps and Games] Appreciative:
Thanks for the words and common sense approach.

There was a 'signature' look to pikik and link wanted to keep that alive for the initial release. Skrazi is also helping theme and said he is close to completing a white and black theme. If he submits his changes to me, I will submit and compile and upload that.

We have not had any real bug reports in this release. We may begin to implement experimental features or finalize our base soon. What I'm getting at, theming will be more fluid after a certain point. I may create a ridiculous colors.xml as the current theme has a lot of hackery in place. Some due to us and some due to kiks implementation of their xml sheets (poor).

If we knew more about android development, we would have a night mode but so far it has been out of reach. It hasn't been a huge concern as we ironed out the core bugs and security first.

I will stop the automatic conversation list scrolling before this project is finalized. That is the most annoying thing in kik.

[Android Apps and Games] HelloMrAnderson:
Hey developers, is it possible to add an option which unlocks all the smileys on kik? I've seen a video of a modded version of kik for iPhone which has an option where it unlocks all the smileys. Is that legit? Can we expect something like that in the future updates?
[Android Apps and Games] MarcoReckless:
Afaik what you seen on iOS may be a Flex patch, and anyway what you suggested can have legal issues with the creators of kik (i think).
[Android Apps and Games] Appreciative:
It exists but making it public may not be the wisest or fairest thing to do to Kik. They generate revenue with those. I think it's asking for more trouble than it's worth. Unfortunately there are also YouTube videos on how its done manually and this will likely lead to a patch anyway.

One Question

If I log in on pikik2 , will all my messages be deleted?
[Android Apps and Games] DnickDominic:
Yes, it acts as a normal login still
[Android Apps and Games] MaXAiRO:
Before resetting kik app

1. Turn off Internet connection.

2. Go with a Root explorer to /data/data/kik.android/databases and copy the entire folder somewhere in your SD.

3. After you log in from Pikik2, turn off the internet again.

4. Copy the databases from your SD, paste it at /data/data/kik.pikik2ghl and replace the files.

5. Before you open Pikik2 to check if the messages are restored, force close Pikik2 app.

6. After you open it you'll see that the conversations will be back and you can turn on the internet connection.

I guess this should be posted in the FAQ in OP if people don't want to lose their conversations.
[Android Apps and Games] lynalli:
I was talking to someone earlier today, and they mentioned being able to view who read their messages (in group chats), vote to remove people from a group, as well as being able to see the past 10 profile pictures of a user. They were using Pikik2 (which I've been using for a while) but I've never seen anything like that?

Any ideas on what this could be? I'd really like to know as it could be handy. They mentioned it being an extension(?) or something like that.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] blackstar1456:
I'm pretty sure it's a dev feature for only the devs bc ik someone who has that too
[Android Apps and Games] Droid187:
Hopefully there's plans to add some of those goodies to Pikik2.

[Android Apps and Games] Appreciative:
It doesn't functionally make sense. There is no telling who read the message/remove admin from a group (short of kik ban). If your phone wanted to store the last 10 profile pics of a user, it'd need to probe everyone all day and would work but be somewhat wasteful. I personally don't believe any of it at this point. We don't have these capabilities if that's on your mind.

So, I deleted the files, not the sdcard. The internal files. And I keep getting this screen. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have Odin, Odin w/re partition, restored from nandroid, and full wipe with a factory reset. No matter what it keeps coming back every 2 mins. And, there is no lock screen,,, Thank you
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] z31k:
Awesome.. Found a solution. I am up and running. It was a corrupt EFS partition. To fix you have to follow this guide. :D

You have to root your phone and install Terminal Emulator from Google Play.

Open terminal emulator and type as ;

su

rm /efs/FactoryApp/keystr

rm /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode

echo -n ON >> /efs/FactoryApp/keystr

echo -n ON >> /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode

chown 1000.1000 /efs/FactoryApp/keystr

chown 1000.1000 /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode

chmod 0744 /efs/FactoryApp/keystr

chmod 0744 /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode

reboot

You now should not see the that message anymore. Its because of an EFS corruption. ( Thanks to yesilcin*com) for exact solution.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kryogen:
Hello everyone, it's been about two weeks since my beloved nexus stopped working with my PC, and I don't know what to do anymore, except for an RMA.

USB Debugging is enabled as well as MTP, i tried with PTP too: results are the same.

I tested on all USB Ports on my computer with 4 cables other than the original one: when connected, the phone does not appear on device manager in windows or in lsusb on linux, except when it is in bootloader mode. It works fine on other pc's, and other Nexus 5's work perfectly fine on my computer (drivers are installed). I formatted my pc and flashed all the available factory images: the problem persists. The only thing i didn't try is connecting it through an usb hub, since I don't have one.

Do you have any ideas? Any help would be appreciated!

Follow the guide to fully uninstall drivers/etc and follow the guide again to install the needed drivers. DO NOT skip steps. If u encounter any problem mid way do post here :good:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kryogen:
Device is not detected. Anyway i don't think it's a driver problem (it would otherwise work on linux, and other nexus 5's wouldn't work with my PC too). Could The phone have "blacklisted" my computer, somehow?

My computer's USB Voltage is 5.04V (checked with a multimeter, my usb chargers have 4.95-5.16 so it's perfectly fine, I guess)

How can i check the data lines?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blacksmith5:
Down load "Googles" USB driver for windows and install on your pc.

Confirm that you have USB debugging set to "ON" and switch from "MTP" to "Camera" via a search in settings for MTP

Finally check that your Phone is able to recogonize that you have a USB Cable connected...

Keep us posted on how you get on

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jinxwolf73:
Mine is terrible compared to my old S3. I have it paired to the radio on my bike so I can stream while I ride. My S3 was solid, good sound quality, never dropped in and out and I could walk about 20-25 feet away without any interruption. Now with my new "upgrade" to the S6, I can barely get 5 feet away from the radio before the signal completely drops out and I get a lot of stuttering and dropping in and out while I am just sitting on the bike. Re-setting the BT and re-pairing everything fixes it for about 2 minutes if I am lucky.

In the end I really don't like the BT capability of the S6 at all compared to my phone from 3 year old technology.

I was told by Samsung that the S6 has a newer version of Bluetooth which is not always compatible with older bluetooth versions in cars etc. They suggested seeing if there was an update for the radio firmware in our vehicle. Well, we have a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited and the dealer says there are no updates at this time. I did try AT&T's suggestion which was to wipe the phone and factory reset it and start over. Tomorrow my wife will test it on her way to work again and see if its any better. If neither of those options work aT&T said I can opt for a warranty replacement.
