Really loved 2do on ios. It was clean fresh modern and just worked. The android version looks old outdated and devs aren't answering social media questions either. Looking for an app that's ad free.

[Moto 360 2015] ret4425:
Hey all,

So, I have a dark-ish themed watch face. (Ranger). It even goes "glow in the dark" green after sunset. I usually have almost 50% of my battery when I get home to take it off. Is there a way to have the active watch face on all the time? Not a dark screen, not the "ambient" mode, but the actual face on? I can't seem to get that option on.

Also, since the Moto has the flash when it switches between active and ambient, are there any recommendations for a good watch face? I like Ranger as they look similar (not going from black to white, for example), just wondering if there are any that have a seamless (as we can get on the Moto) transition. I want mine to look more like a watch than a computer. Assuming I can't just leave the active display on all day.

Thanks!
[Moto 360 2015] philburkhardt:
I don't believe there is a way to leave the watch face active all the time. I could be wrong about that, but I think that's the case.

As far as watch faces go, try Emitter or Minimal & Elegant.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thaphlash.watch.emitter

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.stmp.minimalface

Both do a really nice job of hiding the flat tire and ambient mode looks just like the active watch face, just black background with white text. With Minimal & Elegant, if you make your active watch face a black background with white text, you will never notice the transition to ambient. Even without doing that they both transition between active and ambient really nicely. They're hands down my favorites.

Hope that helps.

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] sarxion:
I just bought an AT&T HTC One M8 that came with android 4.4.2 KitKat. It apparently doesn't have any available android lollipop updates since checking for updates using the "AT&T Software Update" option in settings returns a "no updates available" which was weird, but I didn't mind since I was planning to root this and flash a custom rom.

I read up on guides on rooting and unlocking the bootloader which was pretty standard for most android devices. However, S-on/S-off and hboot are 2 things that are confusing me a bit right now despite doing quite a lot of searching on XDA. To my understanding, S-on/S-off is some kind of HTC protection that needs to be disabled to flash certain roms, and hboot seems to be what people are calling the HTC Bootloader (someone correct me if I'm wrong). If I'm correct, I seem to have hboot version 3.16 according to CPU-Z (I checked the Bootloader version number).

After enough reading, it seems like having the latest hboot version is relatively important for flashing many roms (3.18-3.19 I believe), but I have found no guides on how to do this. My only lead so far is the following thread with 1 reply: http://xdaforums.com/att-htc-one-m8/help/update-hboot-3-18-3-19-t3236897

"Backup any personal data you want to keep (off phone, it will be wiped). Relock the bootloader, run the latest AT&T RUU."

So ok, I guess it's a good thing I'm doing this before rooting the device. However, What's the AT&T RUU? My closest guess was using the HTC Sync Manager on windows to find firmware updates manually, but upon trying this (installing htc sync manager and connecting my HTC One M8) and on the menu clickling "Check for updates", I just get an error message saying "Unable to connect to the live update service".

Then, after some more searching I found this thread: http://xdaforums.com/att-htc-one-m8/help/how-update-bootloader-to-3-18-0-0000-t3006738 which said the following:

"Follow instruction on the following thread for updating firmware, and select the 3.28.1540 firmware file: http://xdaforums.com/att-htc-one-m8/development/att-4-4-3-2-22-1540-3-debloated-sense-6-n"

So, here I am. Unsure whether to follow this instructions since I have no idea what that firmware is or if it will brick my device, or whether it will work since I still haven't rooted or unlocked my device's bootloader and I don't have S-Off (and that thread clearly states S-Off is mandatory for flashing to work). Any ideas?

---------------------------------------------------

edit: I just found out what RUU stands for, but I have been unable to find this "Rom Update Utility". It's spoken as Windows software, but I can't find where to download it. Any help would be very appreciated
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Are you connected to the AT&T network?

S-off is

not

needed to flash any ROMs. S-off is one way to update the firmware needed to run a ROM (more on what "firmware" is in a bit), but s-off isn't strictly need to update firmware either (other ways to do it s-on).

s-off is needed to modify (hack) certain partitions that are protected even with the bootloader unlocked. Such as hboot, radio, and some others. But its only needed for those specific things; and not needed to flash custom recovery or ROMs. And note that you can still update hboot, radio, and other firmware by "official" means even with s-on.

Yes, hboot and bootloader are the same thing, as far as HTC devices are concerned.

Not only is the latest hboot needed to flash the current ROMs, but its important to update the

entire

firmware package. Firmware includes not only hboot, but also a number of other critical modules such as radio, WiFi, Bluetooth, and others; that all need to be updated in order for the current ROMs to function properly.

Good news, you are on the right track, and the proper RUU will update not only hboot, but all the firmware.

I've created an AT&T index thread to catalog such things (sticky to the top of the General AT&T M8 section). It explains what an RUU is, and has links to all AT&T RUUs. You will want the latest RUU (4.28.502.1 or 4.28.502.2 - they are mainly the same except the latter has the Stagefright fix):

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2751432

The RUU is rather self-explanatory. As mentioned previously in this thread (and on the Index) your phone will be wiped by the RUU. So backup anything you want to keep by your method of choice. Then simply download the RUU to a PC, connect the phone. Then run the RUU program, and it will walk you through the process (you basically just need to confirm a couple dialogue boxes, and the RUU will do the rest and automatically update all the software/firmware).

After that, what you want to do in short is:

1) Unlock the bootloader using HTCDev.com

2) Install TWRP 2.8.7

3) Flash your custom ROM of choice

4) Beer

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Jacques Siboni:
Hi all

I am pretty happy as I put to work again a Universal having been drowned

in a pond!

This is how I did it. It can help some other ones.

After this unfortunate fall it did not work. Each time I plugged it on the USB, red led was on for exactly 30 minutes then went off.

PC did not see it.

I found the Service Manual on xda site, and I went on disassembling the device following the images from the document. It is perfect and you

can't imagine to do this without the manual.

Important note: What's not in the manual is the need to remove the metal radio

protections installed on groups of components. There are maybe ten of these.

You want to remove them before cleaning the board. It is fairly easy to do it with the

blade of a knife.

It does not take more than an hour to do the job.

Then I soaked the MB and each electronic component and connector with an

electronic cleaning sprayer. This spray is dedicated to clean electronic contacts and it dries very fast. It does not harm varnish or plastic.

The brand name in France is "Sitosec".

I really soaked the boards, namely let the liquid pour on the ground.

Don't hesitate to WASH the boards with the liquid.

BUT then something unwanted happened: The MB gets very cold due to the

spray. It was totally covered with mist, so WATER AGAIN!!!

I lightly warmed the board with a hair dryer, minimum speed, more than one foot away, just enough to let the mist evaporate.

Then I followed the rebuild instructions.

Soft reset and there it was, it started again.

Perfect condition, and all of the data preserved.

That's all folks

Jacques

[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Medlir:
Possibility of getting GPS working?

What are the chances of getting GPS working on the Fire? The info thread has a post saying the chip in it is a MediaTek MT8127 and links to the spec page which says it has GPS on the chip, as well as an FM receiver. Curious if it requires dedicated antenna connections that aren't there on the Fire, or if it's ready to go hardware-wise and just requires something on the software side? Would be pretty awesome to get it working and use these as a dedicated car tablet, especially now that cm12.1 is booting on it thanks to ggow, and the upcoming Black Friday $35 price.
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blueberry.sky:
GPS would require it's own antenna (plus a couple of supporting components) since it's a different frequency than wifi/bluetooth. So even if the chip includes GPS we can't use it.

Tho in your scenario of a dedicated car tablet you should be able to use a cheap usb GPS dongle. The fire has USB host.

Hello everybody, I am Brazilian and I had a very strange problem on my phone after installing GravityBox module. Well, GravityBox is not working until I install Framework for recovery, after that, I managed to open it, but unexpected things occurred in my smarphone. Once opened, the notification bar Transparante was a very strange way and my phone stopped recognize yourself the network ad-hoc wifi I created in my windows.

I believe the bug occurs because of my rom, as I use a galaxy, it came with a TouchWiz.

If they can give me more information, I will be grateful!

Note: Ignore my English, I know it's horrible.

My phone is Samsung Galaxy Gran Prime Duos, SM-G530BT model, we can suggest me one custom rom, I'll be even more grateful!

Please, if this is the wrong area to the topic, excuse me.
[Xposed General] Spott07:
You must install Xposed before installing any modules like GravityBox. I don't know what will happen if you do it backwards, but it could be bad.

Also, in order to use Xposed at all on that device, you must have a deodexed ROM and use one of the unofficial versions of Xposed.

What ROM do you have (including version number)? What exact Xposed files did you install, what recovery did you use, and how did you do it? Were there any error messages during installation? Are there any error messages in the Xposed log? What version of GravityBox did you install?

Have you tried uninstalling GravityBox, and reinstalling it correctly through Xposed?
[Xposed General] scryan:
Last I heard Samsung and touchwiz needs a special version.

I remember reading that chainfire was working on a beta root method that does not modify the system partition. In this case, you may be able to unlock bootloader --> flash twrp --> flash root --> flash stock recovery and be able to accept security updates? Just a thought. My plan is to flash stock recovery once security patches are released, then reroot if necessary.
