Hi!

I am a big fan of all dark theme, I desktop is entirely black, all the buttons are hidden, and the only thing I miss about my Samsung galaxy S3, was the stock SMS/text messenger that came with android 4.2, and I think android 4.3.

I've included an couple of example here. What is the closest theme that I can get to match this theme?

I really can't stand the multicolored lollipop cutesy wusty pink popcorn dancing hippo, Disney happy squirrel themes. I prefer a more commando approach.

Here is the theme I am looking for.

Ideas?

Use go sms. And look for a blank themes..
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] papamalo:
I am wondering if there are any ROM's that will cover some of this. My problem is, I have to get one SMS app, and then add another dialer app, to get the look that I want, and sometimes one extra theme. I'm hoping that a ROM will come up, that will just essentially be like Kit Kat 3.1, in both messaging and dialing departments.

On that subject, does anyone here know better of an android ROM, or overall theme, that looks more like older android, that will handle all of this in a single swoop?

Thanks!

This build fixes known stagefright bugs, although a new one (aka CVE-2015-6602) has recently been discovered by zimperium:
[Moto X General] 505dv:
Do keep in mind the instructions given here: http://xdaforums.com/moto-x/general/xt1053-222-27-5-stagefright-ota-update-t3210786

I had TWRP installed, root, custom logo etc. and just took the update (in my defence, it was early morning and I wasn't thinking). Taking the update with TWRP get you into a semi-bootloop, where the system restarts after about 1 minute to try to install the update again. Just restoring to stock recovery made the update install, but it then hangs at the boot logo.

I had to restore from a factory image to fix it. Whilst restoring it didn't allow me to downgrade gpt.bin, so keep that in mind.
[Moto X General] mastarifla:
Yea, the OTA is looking at the specific fingerprints of the build.prop, so your custom recovery would indeed prevent it from flashing :), also there are the MD5 hash checks that prevent the partitions from patching

It sounds like you may have had issues with the boot or the system partitions, you could have tried re-flashing the stock 5.1 partitions from the image hosted, then taken the OTA, but I'm glad you were able to get your device back up and running :)

The gpt.bin is applied (near) last in the official OTA procedure, this is the bootloader being updated, and once you update your bootloader, you cannot return to anything before that bootloader safely (there are ways to apply other partitions, but it is risky and complicates the OTA process moving forward), if you do flash without updating the gpt.bin, please remember that in order to safely take OTA's, you will have to flash the most up to date stock image otherwise you will hard brick your device

[Moto X General] MrHaroldA:
I had TWRP installed and flashed 5.1's recovery.img to be able to install the OTA. The OTA was installing fine until I noticed a reboot, which left me with the "Bootloader unlocked" warning screen and then nothing. I can boot into fastboot and have cleared the cache partition; to no avail: the wanring screen stays on for minutes.

Any pointers to revive my phone without clearing user data?
[Moto X General] 505dv:
Fear not, you can still save your phone and all data on it. See me post a few message above here. I had the exact same problem. Follow the link in my post, and flash the Factory image, then take the OTA. You can skip the command to erase userdata, and even all your data and programs are safe. It will fail on the command to flash gpt, but this is no problem.
[Moto X General] MrHaroldA:
I tried that already, but gpt.img failed to flash (downgrade prevention) and the system.img is too big for flashboot and I don't have an mflashboot for 64bit Linux (arch) ...

Edit: missed your edit about gpt ;)

Edit2: installed arch32-light, chrooted into 32bit and mfastboot'ed all, except for user data clear ;) Booting/optimizing as wel speak!!!

Edit3: installed the OTA after going back to stock/non-root and it boots too!

Conclusion: always check XDA before flashing anything! ;)

Replace any mention of adb.exe with your Linux version of adb (from the Android SDK, or elsewhere).

For Step 10, run "python qcdlcomm.py" script. It may not work the first time, I had to install pyserial (or python-serial) package, then unload / reload some kernel modules as specified by the script. Once you get the # prompt, you can enter the command line from Step 11 as-is.

[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s_kates81:
Hi Guys,

Just bought a 8.0 version. So far I have few issues with it

1, The device must be charged with official samsung adapter which came with it or unless it only activates slow charge. I have few hi-power USB adaptors (2A) lying around of iPad which quickly charges iPhone and iPad within an hour or 2, I connected the tab with it but it gave the error message that it's not official samsung adapter and activated the slow charge which is painfully slow. It charges 10 % in 1 hour, so require to plug in 12 hours to charge it full.

2, I charged it full and left it for 1 day, didn't open it. On the second day, I opened it to find out the battery left only 5 % from 100 % , it drained 95 % in just a day or more doing nothing !!!

3, After that, last night I disabled notifications for all apps, disabled google account auto sync, disabled a lot of apps which I thought might be draining the battery. I left it at 80 % . This morning I woke up to find out it was left 64 % i.e. even after all notifications and sync disabled, it still sucked 14 % sitting idle in just 7 hours time. That is, still sucking 2 % an hour sitting idle. I find it pretty amazing, since even my iPhone with all it's notifications etc, the battery doesn't drop more than 1 or 2 % whole night. Comparing with 2 % an hour for this tab with all notifications disabled !!!

Is the system this bad in battery management? or is it normal for android devices?

Try setting your WiFi to be off when screen off. Menu in WiFi settings will take you to where to disable this.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gmaugham:
I think there is something else going on. Did you check in settings to see what is using battery? In a normal day of use, I go through about 5%/hour with the biggest drain being from the screen, as it should be.

Regarding your charger issues, I haven't figured out the secret, but I have been successfully charging my S2 using a non-trivial charger and not slow charging. I have also added a magnet charge adapter and get full-sized charging with the required cable conn3cted to the non-trivial charger.

I'm hoping you find a solution to this. I've just got an 8.0 LTE and it's draining juice like crazy. I've tried all you've tried without much success.

I'm gutted tbh, as finally, finally, Samsung makes an 8.0" tablet with 4:3 aspect and also a tab that doesn't lag! But something just right. My Note 10.1 (2014) last for days and days without a charge. This thing lasts a day to a day and a half which is so frustrating as this is the tablet I've been waiting for for years.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AB__CD:
Draining is almost definitely not normal. A tablet should not drain that quickly, especially because even my 2 year old LG G Pad can last a month on a charge. Try going into settings -> battery -> battery usage and see what's eating up that battery. if it reports system, try disabling features, or perhaps factory reset and not install anything, leave it and see if it drains normally. if so, slowly reinstall your apps and see which one will cause issues. if not, and drain is still crazy, ask for a replacement or repair.

Regarding charging, it might just be because Samsung is using fast charge on this thing or sth, or it's using a different volt, watt or amperage on its chargers and the new tabs just aren't designed to be used with apple acc. That's unfortunaletly likely a hardware issue though.

@op

You can use a good quality cable or charger, it should work, a branded one is not mean it's better, I have 1 from china, a few HTC 1Amp ones, and a aukey brand one, that work, you can also use any of those QUALCOMM 2.0 certified chargers, they should work, but don't expect it to support the QUALCOMM 2.0 fast charge.

[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vshapke:
I doubt the issue is in the hardware - certainly soldering the connector will do nothing, the pcbs are machine soldered, with a tiny chance of error (definitely not "common"), and the surface area needed for current flow is minuscule so unless youre missing a pin up the house, youre just wasting time and unnecessarily taking apart your device :P

I have some experience with the android ril and its probably what is casing problems for people on the LTE version - just a bad connection to the cell tower.

Someone mentioned that connecting to 5 ghz wifi will drain battery. The principle is the same - connecting to a low power or intermittent signal will drain battery.

A new radio may help - try a few different ones if its possible, i dont know about their availability.

Also tell me, do you use the same provider for data on your tab as you do on your phone?

You may own one or two Samsung tablets, and fortunately doesn't have battery connector problem but thousands of other users have it and it's a phenomenon of Samsung tablets, not just this model but other models as well. The threat of " Flickering Screen" has more than 40,000 views, other forum: Android Central, it has over 100,00 views, all of them coming from a cracked battery connector. PCBs are machine soldered, but this connector cannot handle the stress and the flexibility of the mainboard weakly secured to the frame.

I have handled over thousands of Samsung tablet per year, so this fact is not a surprise to me.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vshapke:
Actually ive had quite a few sammy tablets, opened most of them up and never seen any give between PCB and mobo components. Maybe ive been lucky with that though, as two of the ones ive owned had other serious problems - the Nexus 10 i got on release day in the states seems to have a processor flaw that has it glitching out when sustaining normal load at max frequency, probably a faulty core, and the Pro 12.2 i got my mom needed speaker replacement within two months of use.

Regarding the number of views... that is not an indicator of anything, i imagine a lot of those were people just browsing, or more amusingly people who were reading the forums because they were looking to get the device in question.

Anyway, imho not very likely. But anyone whos worried can go to their local repair shop and get it cracked open and checked for a few bucks. Wonder if anyone is willing to do that?

It can fix easily by re solder the battery connector.

This is mine after the fixing, play all day and leave it on overnight, then it's still have 42% left. When battery suddenly drops from like 90% to 10%, I can tell right away that the black battery connector is cracked ( soldered to mainboard ) or the white battery connector ( from battery with 6 wires ) is loose.

This one can fix by pushing the opening closer, I see Samsung fix this problem by applying a little silver conductive glue to it.

Recently when removing battery connector, it seems quite hard to take it out. From a closed look, I see they applied a thin silver conductive glue to

fix loose battery connection

Use this one to verify problem from: USB cable, charger, or USB charging port

http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fro....TRS1&_nkw=usb+current+voltage+meter&_sacat=0

The rule is using elimination method , using a known working USB cable or charger to verify. It's is the same, the problem might be from USB charging port.

Voltage should be at least 5 Volts, current should be at least 1.5 Amps. You have to do the work, nobody can give a solution for many unknowns: cable, charger, or usb port, or battery connector.
