There is no special way to hold it. Things to try:

Flash back to stock

Remove that case

Try a different SIM / network

If all those don't make a difference, could be a defect. I've certainly never had an issue with Mic volume on this device.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabyboss1:
Hello!

How can I create a bootable SD Card for my hardbricked SG J1 (SM-J100H)?

Can someone explain me step by step, because I tried http://www.udoo.org/getting-started/creating-a-bootable-micro-sd-card-from-image/ and I fail everytime...

If someone knows to "translate" from Linux to Terminal Emulator, please help me!

I have a PC Tablet (Android). I don't know if it helps somehow.

Thanks!!

Thanks in advance.
[Xposed General] pilger:
Hey guys,

I'm a hobbyst programmer but I'm all new to Android and Xposed framework.

My goal is to disable that dark overlay on the lockscreen wallpaper on Lollipop 5.1.

Can this be achieved through Xposed? Or is better to take some other path?

Thanks in advance!
[Xposed General] Generalbrus:
I'm trying to develop such a module myself and I've been looking at CM12 source code but I can't find the option to disable. I think it can be done with Xposed, but it's hard to be more specific without knowing what needs to be hooked! If you're still interested in developing this module, feel free to get it touch :)
[Xposed General] pilger:
Hey [MENTION=6924101]Hypocryptic[/MENTION], I actually went on and tried decompiling SystemUi.apk to find out more about this.

I discovered a simple way to disable the overlay, BUT it still appears whenever I put the phone to sleep by double tapping the statusbar. I was planning on writing a tutorial once I get it figured out, but I guess we can work together to achiev it faster.

What do you have so far?
[Xposed General] Generalbrus:
[MENTION=5942084]pilger[/MENTION] I've just decompiled SystemUI too... and bricked my phone LoL. I guess I messed with the apk signature... thus I can't test my edit for now! I was looking for a drawable but at this point I don't know.

So, what have you found?
[Xposed General] kutlay1653:
YES.it is possible gravity box have this opinion :)

SORRY my bad english
[Xposed General] Generalbrus:
Are you sure? I don't remember seeing it, but I'm going to double check later. Btw, GravityBox is not 100% compatible with custom ROMs, so I'll try as soon as I can if it works with CM12.1!
[Xposed General] pilger:
Just tested and it's really not compatible with Cyanogen 12.1 (Lollipop 5.1).

As for my testings with tinkering inside SystemUi.apk, I've found out a resource called something like navbar scrim or something like that (I have it written down here somewhere, but can't seem to find it right now) which controls the color for the lockscreen overlay. BUT this does not affect the overlay when we put the phone to sleep by double tapping the statusbar. I suspect it's because it uses the overlay present on the expanded statusbar instead of the one intented for the lockscreen.

I still don't have any clue what controls the color for the overlay on the expanded statusbar. I think the answer is to find it and then track it back to the function that calls it. Would any of you know how?
[Xposed General] Generalbrus:
[MENTION=5942084]pilger[/MENTION] Okay, thanks for the info, I'll look into it.

The value I tried to edit was about a scrim too (I set the color as #00000000):

(Same values can be found in ./layout-sw600dp-port/keyguard_host_view.xml and ./layout-port/keyguard_host_view.xml )

As I said I wasn't able to test it though.
[Xposed General] pilger:
Those layouts (land and port) are not used, I think. I didn't find a single reference to their ids on the smali code.

Anyways, have you managed to unbrick the phone?
[Xposed General] Generalbrus:
I did, it took a while for even the recovery went mad at some point...

I found a qs_navbar_scrim.xml , is it the resource you were mentioning?
[Xposed General] pilger:
That's the one.

Remember to save a copy of your unmodified SystemUi.apk somewhere, so you can replace it if the compilation goes wrong. I've also found out that the system boots fine without an SystemUi.apk, so you can just delete it with a recovery manager (TWRP), boot and put back the original one (and fix permissions, etc.).
[Xposed General] Generalbrus:
I tried to do that the last time but I couldn't! TWRP eventually stopped working and via adb I didn't have permissions to write in /system/... Bad luck - even my nandroid had disappeared.

Btw I'd prefer to address the value with Xposed, I'll see what I can do tomorrow.
[Xposed General] pilger:
You have to mount system partition on TWRP so you can delete the file.

Anyways, you might address the value with Xposed but it would still show an overlay on the double tap to sleep gesture. Are you planning to leave it at that, or intent on digging further to make the overlay go away altogether?
[Xposed General] C3C076:
Since lockscreen in Lollipop is basically always-expanded notification panel, it is probably necessary to look for and change notification panel background.

This will most likely affect also background of normal notification panel when device is unlocked. This is just a hint. Haven't tried nor checked myself.
[Xposed General] pilger:
I've figured that much out but couldn't find a resource that contains a color for the overlay on the notification panel. And I believe that's the "extended statusbar", but can't confirm it for sure.

Anyways. I've found the double tap event that calls the gotosleep() which causes the overlay to come back. But, since I don't know where the extended statusbar overlay comes from, I can't get rid of it before putting the phone to sleep.
[Xposed General] Generalbrus:
[MENTION=5942084]pilger[/MENTION] how did you edit the qs_navbar_scrim? Because I set both startColor and endColor as transparent but I've still got the overlay.
[Xposed General] pilger:
I did exactly that. Changed both colors to #00000000 and the overlay was gone. There are also some functions that change the alpha of the overlay altogether inside ScrimController.smali, but that's rather messy to change. I believe that changing the resource was a "cleaner" way.

Anyways, are you on cm12.1? Are you trying to decompile and recompile or to change it through Xposed?
[Xposed General] Generalbrus:
I tried both via Xposed and by modifying SystemUI.apk, no luck either way.

Yes, CM12.1.

Are you sure you haven't touched anything else?
[Xposed General] pilger:
Okay, that's weird. It shouldn't be something related to the device. How old is your version of CM12.1? Mine's from early August, I think. Maybe I have an old version or you do.

Well, you might have better luck tinkering with the functions then.

There's a method inside ScrimController.smali that's called "updateScrimKeyguard". If you comment every call to "setScrimInFrontColor" and "setScrimBehindColor" inside that method, it should disable the overlay. But it would still show after a double tap to sleep.
[Xposed General] Generalbrus:
I've got a nightly version, the one from yesterday so yes, yours is older but I don't think that's the problem.

--

Got it at last!

Your last suggestion was right, I've just created an Xposed module which hookes this method

private void setScrimBehindColor(float alpha) {
setScrimColor(mScrimBehind, alpha);
}

by always setting alpha as 0.

It works also when the phone is locked by double tapping the status bar.

If you have Xposed and don't mind testing the module too, just let me know.

It was pretty straightforward in the end, I had seen those methods before but somehow didn't give them much importance (?!).

The downside to my 'brutal' approach is that the scrim is removed from the notification panel too. I'll see if I can prevent that.
[Xposed General] pilger:
I'm eager to try it, yes. Feel free to send it to me however you like.

That's an unfortunate side effect, but it still puts us in the right direction. I'll search for any calls to that method and see if I can manage to keep the overlay on the notification panel and recent apps screen.
[Xposed General] Generalbrus:
I think it's just about checking some ifs, I'm trying that right now.

I've got to create an activity as well, so the APK should be ready for (my) tomorrow.

--

EDIT: Yep, now the overlay is only removed from the lockscreen, even the scrim animations are still smooth.
[Xposed General] pilger:
Great news, man.

I think it isn't really necessary to code a whole UI for the module. Specially for testing purposes. If you want, I could test it the way it is.
[Xposed General] Generalbrus:
*I'm not a man* :good:

I designed the UI to test if the overlay could be enabled/disabled without rebooting. That isn't the case, so at the moment there is no need for a UI.

I think I'll add a feature to change the text color of the clock & stuff so that they can be made visible according to the wallpaper (the overlay did have a purpose).

Anyways, I've attatched the module (the version without UI) here, it simply needs to be activated in Xposed and you can hopefuly say goodbye to that overlay too!
[Xposed General] pilger:
Oh, terribly sorry for the confusion there, miss. :o :p

About the module. It seems to be working just fine. An option to change the clock widget color would be handy, indeed. Excellent job! :good::good::good:

I noticed, though, that the overlay remains over the actual pattern area. May I ask how you managed to tell the difference between all the calling for the method!? I was planning to disable the pattern overlay as well and replace it with a custom image.
[Xposed General] Generalbrus:
If you mean the pattern to unlock the phone that appears after you swipe up, then I don't think it is managed by the same method (setScrimBehind) since as far as I recall when I first tried the module that scrim still appeared (whereas the notification panel one, for instance, did not).

That overlay is also noticeably darker...

Still, I'm going to have a look at that, maybe it's the setScrimFront method but right now I'm just guessing.

That ScrimManager is quite complicated, but there are several handy boolean vars which are fairly explicit; in case, I suggest you focus on those.

At this point I think I'll open a development thread in the module section so that I can properly keep track of everything.

Glad the basic feature works though!

EDIT: here is the new dev thread.
[Xposed General] pilger:
Thanks for the tip. I sucessfully managed to disable it on the pattern screen as well.

And also found a way to embed an image on the apk itself and set it as a "custom" wallpaper for the pattern screen. But that made the pattern inputting very laggy. I have yet to found another way around that.

Anyways, do you feel like making this a collaborative project? I think people can benefit from our combined efforts.
[Xposed General] Generalbrus:
Yes, that's fine by me.

I've uploaded the code on GitLab for now, if you don't have an account there I guess I can push the project to GitHub, just let me know.

I expected the animations to be laggy with a custom image there to be honest, there's a lot going on in the Keyguard-related classes due to security reasons.
[Xposed General] pilger:
Hey [MENTION=6924101]Generalbrus[/MENTION], sorry for the late reply. I've created an account on GitLab: https://gitlab.com/pilgerone

And, hell yea, I managed to put a custom image on the security input window without making it laggy.
[Xposed General] Generalbrus:
That's great!

I'm just about to release the version 2.0 with many new features, then I'll add you as a contributor.

I've made the repository accessible to any GitLab member.

Hey guys, i will try to post as short as possible.

First of all sorry for my bad English & i have very litle time to begin to read every step by step things and search forums etc ...

I'm not a total noob in "how to's" , i once rooted and installed customs rom on my mini 2 so i know a litle bit what i have to do.

Yesterday i bought a mini 3 GT-I8200N but the RAM is horrible if you ask me, i launched facebook & messenger and it was almost on 100% RAM usage .... WTF ... lol

So here is what i would want if somebody could point me in the right directions ... :

I got a micro SD 16 GB class 10 and the phone (i already rooted it) , what i want is :

1) A good stable custom ROM (give me links if you can thx) , it don't have to be a ROM with all sort of gadgets i will never use anyway BUT , preferable one that does not suck away to many RAM and good for battery life.

2) A new Kernel? i'm not sure if it's included in the ROM but i think i need it for using RAM trough my SD. (link if possible)

3) any recovery tools i may need & super user.

I got about 900 Mb RAM now and i'm not happy.

i would partition my 16 GB SD in 3 :

Part 1 : 4GB RAM

Part 2 : 2 GB Apps (i don't need many apps)

Part 3 : 10 GB Storage

i forgot what i need and what format i need to use for this.

i think Link2SD but what formats again ?

Thanks.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joe333x:
My girlfriends T mobile LG G2 D801 was dropped and the screen cracked and the digitizer only recognizes the left of the screen so she can not input her lock code. Being pretty android savvy I was hoping I could figure out a way to get CWM installed to be able to pull her pictures off the SD card for her. Unfortunately I can not connect to the phone through ADB since I can only assume she never turned USB debugging on because why would she? The phone is stock rom unrooted. I booted into the stock recovery and only have the option to wipe the phone which I would assume will wipe her sd card also. I booted into download mode and upgraded the recovery with the LG support tool for the hell of it. So obviously I'm able to install a new recovery that route but I cant find anyway to install CWM without a working screen or USB debugging already enabled. Does anyone have any suggestions? Bricking the phone trying isnt really a concern since it needs to be sent back to the insurance company anyway. Any help is appreciated.
