[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tubgirl:
I always use matte screen protectors on all my mobile devices and I would never buy a notebook with a glossy screen (only matte screens).

That way you avoid reflections from windows behind you, lamps etc.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
No, never had screen protectors on any of my devices. They are pointless unless you really abuse your device.

Manufacturers make the effort to make a device with a great screen, slim with oleophobic coatings and then people go and negate all that by sticking a piece of cheap glass or plastic over it, which then spoil the touch and look of the device.

The manufacturers could do the same thing, but who would buy it then?

I'm sure there will be loads of counter arguments as to why they are great and they maintain the screen for better resale value, which is all well and good, but why buy a device, not enjoy it and use it as intended just so someone else can get the benefit when you sell it? :what:
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android4life92:
I think that's so untrue. If you get a good screen protector and apply it well , a clear one, the touch is just as good and you wouldn't even know it's there with peace of mind knowing it's protected . You might not think it's scratching but screen without protection over time will get a lot of surface scratches. Drop it once on the screen there no going back
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cktlcmd:
What kind of screen does our Tab S2 have? If our Tab S2 have the Corning Gorilla Glass 3... then we do not need any screen protector.

Why? Just watch scratch test of any phone with the Corning Gorilla Glass 3 screen and you will know it will resist any scratches. One example... search in youtube for THL T200 scratch test... they used the tip of a sharp swiss knife as a stylus, and no scratches whatsoever... that's how good screens are nowadays.

I used to be one of those who sticks a screen protector as soon as i buy a device... but not now with the progress they had with screens and making it scratch proof and almost unbreakable.

Hey there!

Would it be possible to get wireless charging animation from S6E+ (Note5) to regular Edge?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMgkWoRnJXo

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S6 Edge Themes and Apps] funky0308:
If we have firmware dump from Note5, then, probably, yes.

I was busy for the last few months and didn't follow XDA, so, maybe we already have firmware or even ported charging animation..

I worked in Sony section for a years and don't know much about Samsung but that should be a app so porting shouldn't be a problem..

As I said, if you know where can I find firmware files dump I'll check that..
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Superbia:
I been searching high and low but can't find anything so I turn to the one place where I might get answers.

How come there is no apps or even possibility to use the mag strip reader? I live in Finland. We conduct I would dare to say 90-95% of payments with EMV but love our mag stripes for loyalty cards. I now have 25 loyalty cards (every damn store more or less forces them on you) and this mag strip technology in the S6 series phones seems perfect for save them all in the phone.
[AT&T LG G4] petermg:
So I emailed LG at developer@lge.com the following message:

Hello, I need the instructions to unlock the bootloader for my H810. Please send them. Thank you!

Five days later they responded:

Hello,

We are sorry to inform you that currently we have no plan to support bootloader unlock on LG H810.
Currently, the LG H815 (G4) for the European market supports unlocking the bootloader.
We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause.
For more information on unlocking the bootloader, please refer to the link below:
http://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev?categoryTypeCode=ANRS

Best Regards,
LG Developer site Team

So when they said on their site here

We will add more devices with unlockable bootloaders unlocking permission progressively.

After giving instructions on how to unlock the bootloader for the H815, it seems a bit... misleading.
[AT&T LG G4] gboybama:
What's the confusion here? At the directive of the carriers, LG isn't about to give us full control of our device. At least not voluntarily.
[AT&T LG G4] uly609:
You act like this is some how news that we hadn't already known for years... AT&T doesn't want us to unlock our Bootloaders END of story.
[AT&T LG G4] soulysephiroth:
ATT has always been about locked bootloaders.

We've never expected to get one offically....
[AT&T LG G4] PR_Grim:
What about the new rule on unlocking devices recently approved? Can rhat be used in our favor and force an official unlock from them?
[AT&T LG G4] soulysephiroth:
Your talking about carriers having to domestic unlock a device. That only applies to carrier usage. Doesn't help us in this case.
[AT&T LG G4] bigjohnman:
AT&T wouldn't even give me a carrier unlock code till I had completely paid off my phone. I wanted to pay it off completely, so I went to my online bill payment. There is NO option to pay for the phone. I must call customer service and give someone my credit card #. They found some loop-hole to get out of unlocking 2 of my phones now. Bad AT&T!!!

[YU Yureka Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] challenge_me:
Hello,

Whenever I am switching on my Location service/GPS to high accuracy mode, I am getting this popup which says "Unfortunately, Google Play services has stopped." And also the GPS is not working either. I am not being able to locate myself on the map. Since I have my exams starting next week and I use Ola/Uber to travel it is really essential for me to have this issue solved at the erarliest.

Please see, recently I also got this message "Unfortunately, CM logger has stopped." Although the CM logger message is not recurring the Google Play Service is a recurring error which keeps pn popping every 5 seconds. It is so irritating. Need a solution at the earliest.
[YU Yureka Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikhilkaushik:
you must have either flashed a custom rom over your current build or must be flashing kernel or so and since then this problem would have come up.... There is a temporary solution to it and then there is a permanent one.

Temporary : Uninstall google play services updates. If uninstall option does not become available then go to security, disable android locator or something like that in administrator options etc.. It is somewhere around in security. You will have to look a bit. Once you deactivate that you will be able to uninstall updates of google play services. Clean data of it. Reboot. Once you reboot, your phone will say some apps require google play services to run. Click on that notification and update Google Play Services.

The termporary solution may or may not work.... It sometimes worked for me but recently has not been working.

Permanent solution, take backup of your data and get back to all stock and before you have setup everything on your phone, flash kernel and reboot. If you are not facing the problem again, then resetup....

Remember, if you take backup of data, and after clean install, try to restore the data, the problem would return with greater magnitudes....

Hope I helped :)

All the best for your exams....

You can't install old extras + info directly but you can probably do a hard reset . if it didn't work you have to re-flash your phone to an older version of WP . It contains old extras + info app .

anymore on 8.1....

I have suggestion about that.

1) Delete new e+i by "100 year trick"

2) Copy old e+i store XAP to SD

3) Install it (MS said it will be possible to install old versions from SD)

Now you have old extras+info!

not install
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] CreativeGamer03:
There are more alt methods... why not try them?

You know, extras+info patch method isn't the only method to interop unlock WP 8.1. Some made methods to perform interop unlocking by patching MixRadio or HERE Maps or PFD (Preview For Developers). Just search them here in XDA Developers Forums! Anyone can help out! ?
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plumbe0:
So I don't know if this is a feature or a bug but I saw that whenever i had the keyboard open i would get a "Select input keyboard" notification (you can see it in the first image). When i open the notifications i get the dialog in the second picture.

So i went straight on disabling all the other keyboards: i disabled Swype and Google app (because of Google Vocal Typing or something like that) from the apps settings so the AOSP keyboard is the only one left (see third image) but again no luck, the notification is still there. I also tried replacing the AOSP keyboard with Google keyboard and ensuring that it was the only one active but it still didn't work. Is this standard Android behavior? Or possibly an Alcatel bug? A bug in my software? That thing is annoying as hell.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Langsuir:
I get that dialog when I press a small button to the right of the nav bar (it only appears when the keyboard pops up). Did you try to longpress the notification and then press the "i" symbol, then disable notifications from that source?
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plumbe0:
I always get that dialog, even with only one keyboard app installed/enabled, so that's not normal.

By the way, i tried disabling the notification but since it comes from Android System itself it cannot be disabled but only set to priority mode.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3dupunk:
It drove me crazy for a bit cause I'm a little OCD with my screen, but I just ignore it now.
[Android Studio] Vikzy:
Ok, what I want is simple, I want to add filters to conversations and messages on android, I don't know whether I can't or not, to modify the screen for calls and messages to run both at the same time, on half for messages one half for calls.To add a shortcut for the password to not introduce it every time time Phone runs in standby. Also how can I modify the life span of the battery, so that if it runs lets say below 30 % it turns into power saving mode, disables internet, and all apps that consume power. Also for when listening to music or browsing the internet, how can I open music in background of my phone and still browse the internet without closing, 3 or more pages at once?

All I want is to configure and modify the interface and manipulate it as I want. Is there any software or settings, from which I can do this?
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheOnlyRooster:
I accidentally flashed a custom rom after i thought I'd unlocked my bootloader, the bootloader was not unlocked and now I'm in a error loop, Help? or advice? I'm very new to this stuff
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultramag69:
If you can get to bootloader, from off hold power and up volume key until ASUS logo appears, you can try to use fastboot to install an image file, get it from the pre-rooted roms thread in original android developement.

Hopefully this will fix. If you want to try a stock rom from ASUS then you still need to go to this mode, go to recovery and, if youget a n android with error underneath, hold the same buttons as above. This will allow you to either flash using ADB or you can put the downloaded zip folder on your fat32 formatted sd card, named MOFD-SDUPDATE.zip, and do a recovery stock flash by picking the update file.

Good luck...
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Veza:
Still no success.

My problems started when I couldn't flash xposed framework onto my rooted zenfone 2 (ze551ml). I tried different versions for intel devices from one of the links i got here. Then i tried to do it via magisk installation. I was using twrp 2.8.7.0 to flash the roms. After attempting to install magisk v7, my device couldn't boot. Have tried installing stock rom from the asus website via abd sideload and by flashing it after renaming it mofd_sdupdate.zip. The processes seeem to work fine and "complete" or "finished" messages pop up. But when i try to reboot it stops at bootloader screen or just goes directly to twrp.

Can someone help.:confused:
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krasCGQ:
1. Magisk on stock ROMs may require some modifications in order to work or booting correctly.

2. You may want to flash RAW firmware...
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Veza:

[HTC Tornado] N8falke:
Hello again,

lets see if i can solve my latest problem myself again before anyone answeres here ;)

Any chance to write angled or cambered brackets (word-by-word translation, hope its correct)? I mean {, }, [ and ]

If i press the #-Button to enter the special charakter page i can find the "normal" brackets only, ( and )

is there a second page or another way to get more charakters?

Thanx
[HTC Tornado] boneym:
Hi,

When I press the # Button to enter the special character page I can see all kind of brackets. Both [] and {}.There is also a next page button where you can find other characters.

Here is a screen shot.
[HTC Tornado] N8falke:
thanx for you quick reply. looks really familiar from the wm5 times.. but i flashed to wm6 and now there is a complete different page (6 x 6 symbols only and no smileys for example).

bad thing is: instead of the NEXT button i can only CANCEL

forgot what rom i got (tried some), its not the perfect english one and also not phils alpha or beta

so anyone with the wm6 rom knows how to fix that?
[HTC Tornado] qtek_metanol:
Install this cab....!!!

Gruss
[HTC Tornado] boneym:
I both used Phil's Alpha and Andot's PEE (Still using this one) . Both WM6 roms had this page.By the way I am using T9 English & Turkish.

VERY NICE!! Thank you.. wouldn't have thought about this, as german t9 already works. But now i can access the options also.. thanks again :)

Have to bring this Topic on Top because i suddenly realized a new problem with the t9 stuff..

i tried to switch t9 from german to english cause i wanted to send message to an english speaking friend but couldnt type anything.

After installing english t9 i didnt find german anymore, so i installed german t9 again..

Any way to have both t9 working as it was wm5 standard?

thanx again..

[XDA Assist] XDA Visitor:
A little while ago I broke my screen on my Sony Xperia z3 compact, so naturally I replaced the screen and the digitzer, and it worked (hurray!) for about five minutes (Boo!), after which the backlight stopped working, apparently this is a common issue and I managed to find a solution after googling "sony experia z3 compact backlight not working". Should be the first result (cant post outslde links as noobie)

So i attempted to make the jumper with a soldering Iron, but my soldering experience is clearly evidence of my ability to break phones as in the process I burned through the component (I think. though the whole mess is covered in Solder right now). And although the charging light comes on the phone it self will not turn on. It is completely dead, I have tried various resets but none work, I should mention the phone worked perfectly before hand it was just the backlight that was the problem..

Is it time to get a new phone, or is there still hope? I've already sunk over £100 into trying to repair the stubborn basterd but I've not quite given up hope

[AT&T LG G4] petermg:
I'm noticing that FlashFire has the option to backup the system parition file based. I'm wondering if someone who has flashed the PR ROM could simply do a restore of a STOCK ATT system partition backed up this way and if it would work? If anyone wants to try, I can make a backup and upload it and post a link.. Let me know!
[AT&T LG G4] uly609:
Sounds like a hard brick waiting to happen.
[AT&T LG G4] petermg:
Yeah.. probably right. It was real late when I posted that LOL;)
[AT&T LG G4] petermg:
Actually doing a system restore via file based shouldn't hard brick the phone. Only if it was raw based possibly, but either way it would only be the system position so the kdz/tot would still be able to be flashed to the phone as before. This might work! Or at least be a good base to try.
[AT&T LG G4] CAG-man:
I agree with this theory. It should only flash the system over the system. You would have to make sure the boot loader is correct for the system rom. So say a 10b bootloader for an equivalent 10bPR rom.

(If any of the above is confusing or slightly off, I blame it on the fact I have been battling a bad virus this week with a bad headache.)

I just warrantied my PR rom device a few weeks ago, or else I would have tried this for you.

Edit: You would also have to edit the script in the file to flash to designate the correct partition to flash the system to.
[AT&T LG G4] petermg:
Unless it just extracts the tar'd files it copied from the system partition of the stock device. Still some ambiguity regarding that app. For example, it shows no option to allow me to make backups on the external SD card...
[AT&T LG G4] CAG-man:
I would think it still needs an address as to where to put the extracted files.

I will look and see if I have any twrp backups on my computer from some of the roms I made. I have never fully looked through and studied the backups as much as I used them for system dumps. It just seems to make since that the recovery would need to know where to write the system files. Just flashing an app is alright without the address.

In writing the flashing script for ROMs, I have always had to give the recovery the address as to where to write the system files or else it would result in a flash failure or soft brick.

I may be writing my scripts wrong too. I just know what works for me.
