For me, it's the Bluetooth keyboard issue that's causing the most problems. It scares me that I've decided to keep the tablet to wait for a fix, while no word from the Google devs on this issue yet.
[Pixel C General] Shocky2:
Anandtech love Apple, any excuse to bash a competing product.

Sadly Google gave them a few excuses, really surprised Google haven't put out any updates to address the touchscreen issues.

I don't have any other issues with the Pixel C, everything is working great here but then again I have no keyboard! :D

They're buying into the Convertible branding a little too much.

Just as the title says.

Im looking for a very hard, rigid case that wont bend, to protect my phone from bending while its in my pocket.

Thanks.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] zikronix:
Ive been a fan of the unicorn beetle pro cases, I use one for my iphone6 for work and it has never bent and its in my back and front pockets. My only complain with them is the "screen protector" is plastic and attached to the case. eventually it becomes scratched. On my iphone i ripped it off and put a vinyl or glass protector. Others seem to like the two piece clamshell slide together cases.

When I do cases I usually get a clear skin from liek xtreme guard, and then put my case around that. Ive had dirt get in cases and scratch the phones. Some of these cases are so tight thats not an option.

Here is another thread on the subject, with some options!

[Nexus 6P Accessories] Casimov:
Nice suggestion! You're right, the older one is much better looking than the new one.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] galaxys:
Yep, that new one sux's! What were they thinking?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] danb1979:
I bought on of these off Amazon UK and sent it back; it's fugly and far too bulky IMO

Don't like the in-built screen protector on it either, much prefer a decent tempered glass which my 6P has already!

I've just ordered the Carpathian Elm Burl woodback explorer case from Cover Up and I've got x2 Orzly cases coming to me via eBay (Prime Armor & Air Stand).

I'm currently using the Spigen Rugged Armor case, but it's a soft case all round with no solid back which is ideally what I wanted; I'm disappointed that Spigen offered such a poor range of cases for the 6P and that Otterbox didn't even entertain making cases for it!
[Nexus 6P Accessories] dwang:
I have the speck candyshell. It has a hard outer shell with a soft inner liner. It's very rigid and should prevent the phone from bending.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] hacksome:
The RingKe Fusion has a hard shell back.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] galaxys:
+1 great hybrid case protection!
[Nexus 6P Accessories] dwang:
one thing to keep in mind is that the black speck candyshell shows scratches like crazy. I've only had mine for 2 weeks and the back is already noticeably scratched up. I'm actually going to return mine and get the white one as that doesn't seem to show scratches as easily.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] galaxys:
Thanks, but yes I do have the white for those reasons.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Gorgtech:
I'm waiting for a Poetic Revolution case which will arrive soon ;) From what I've seen on the Web, this case might be very solid too and it also includes a kickstand and a screen protector. I will remove the screen protector since I never liked this kind of stuff. I'm very careful with my devices and all screens have survived without any scratches ;)

Hi all,

Does anyone know if there is any good roms with later Z series camera ported and no google apps? I tried browsing the forums here to find some good alternatives, but I have not been able to locate the ideal rom yet.

I have had problem with all CM based roms that touchscreen gets unresponsive randomly, so I'd really like it if you can suggest non-CM based roms for me. Previously I used ihackers, which was GREAT.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beefheart:
I have a genetic air mouse with a disable mouse button, which allows just the direction and function buttons to be used. However, the mouse pointer is only disabled until the air mouse goes into sleep mode after around 2-3 minutes and reappears as soon as it's woken. This plays havoc in Kodi on my Nvidia Shield TV, as I'm running a skin which only supports direction keys.

My question is if there is an app which allows the disabling of mouse input in a specified application? I'm rooted so it's not an issue if this is required.

A solution would be much appreciated.

Hello XDA,

I'd like to share with you this quick, easy tutorial about how to enable Google Now on Tap and Cards in every country and network carrier that doesn't support this service.

But first of all you must be on Lollipop or Marshmallow based ROM (I assume you are)

And most importantly you MUST be rooted. What is root? Just Google it. Do it only when you know what you're doing I'm not responsible for anything goes wrong with the process of rooting. But this tutorial itself is not harmful.

What you need is an app called Market Unlocker (attached below) simply download and install it..... And you MUST have a SIM inserted at least one (I assume you have one already)

Step1: Remove ALL your google accounts. This is EXTREMELY important.

Step2: Open the app you just installed (Market Unlocker)

Step3: Enable the unlocker to USA Verizon.

Step4: Give it root permissions.

Step5: Reboot your system.

Step6: Press your search button (hold home button on nav bar)

Step7: Tap on get started and add your google account.

Step8: Enjoy Now on Tap and Cards. :)

PS1: you can uninstall Market Unlocker app but don't disable it. Just keep it enabled and uninstall it. Otherwise, you WILL lost Now on Tap and Cards.

PS2: these steps doesn't modify your EFS data which means when you perform a factory reset or clean flash a new ROM, you have to do the process all over again.

[Android General] Albania:
Well, it works, it has worked for a long time, but this is not a quick and easy tutorial if it includes rooting.

This now enables Google Assisstant on Marshmallow+ based ROM's.

Will update it when I have time.
[Android General] 00Deady:
Does this works with Android lollipop 5.1.1?.. Tried but nothing happens.. Maybe my method.. Or idk.. Coz i followed ur step 1 by 1.. I still can't use Google now on tap..
[Android General] yoahmad1995:
On lollipop and KitKat, there is only Google now.
[Android General] 00Deady:
Ohh.. I see.. Thanks dude.. I've been searching how to enable now on tap on lollipop.. Is it possible? Is there any links/sites that can help me with it? Can't find one for lollipop.. Even tho i can just flash new ROM.. It's hard to find nice working rom.. Because my phone's last update was lollipop 5.1.1.. And some ROM based on 6.0 and later didn't work too well with my phone.. As far i know.. I'm using sony Xperia z1 compact if that helps.. Thanks :)
[Android General] yoahmad1995:
Google introduced Google now on tap in Marshmallow so unfortunately there is no way to enable it on lollipop.

This method enables Google now on tap on older devices but on newer devices, it enables Google Assistant so I need to update my thread but don't really have time. :/
[Android General] 00Deady:
Aahh.. I see.. Thanks..:).. It's because of different api level of Android.. So i need to upgrade to Marshmallow to enable it.. I don't really need it tbh.. Just wanted to make my phone looks better with latest app and features.. I'll try Marshmallow when i have free time to look for quite nice rom:o.. Thanks alot..
[Android General] yoahmad1995:
I would start with Resurrection Remix ROM. :)
[Android General] 00Deady:
Does camera function well on that rom? And what's the link for the thread?:p.. I heard camera isn't compatible with rom higher than lollipop 5.1.1 on my phone.. Because of different blobs? Idk what that means.. :confused::eek:.. Anyway.. Thanks bro:highfive:

Hi. Thanks for the apk. I managed to make it run with included videos but i failed running an mkv file in MilkVR folder as i only managed a mp4 to play. Is there a way to play 2D or 3D mkv files in DTS/AC3 with the gear vr ? I though milkvr was the solution but apparently not.
[Samsung Gear VR] rtorres0106:
Yes you can I can watch any movies on my gear VR.

You need to make folder for me I put in External SD card set like this..

Oculus/Movies/3D

if you want to play normal movie just put the files on Movies folder..

if you want to watch 3d movies put it in 3D folder the file should be HSBS or side by side only.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] san_099:
Hello Everyone,

I am getting an odd issue with the Netflix App running in either CM 12 or 13 (Various ROMs CM/Temasek/CynoPop/MoKee etc). The app would run as normal and even start the video, but then after a few minutes the video gets scrambled. The picture would go from good to scramble on and off. I've also tried older versions of Netflix App resulting with the same issue.

This only seems to happen in the S3, as my Samsung Mega 6.3 (CM 13) runs smoothly and my other Samsung A7 (Stock) does too. Other videos run without any issues (Youtube/MX Player Pro).

The issue resembles a PAL/NTSC clash you would normally have with VHS back in the day.

Any ideas? Should I go back to Stock? I love the google experience and I want the S3 to be used with my future Chrome-cast 2 so I can have the experience complete.

Thanks in advance.

[Samsung Gear S] Myrmeko:
{Mod edit: Quoted post has been deleted. Oswald Boelcke, Senior Moderator}

I play Pokemon on my Galaxy Watch 5 Pro when i'm in a bus or whatever (and that one Bejeweled clone game for the Gear S). It's a quick little time killer that doesn't drain your phone's battery. The screen is big enough for such a simple game.

It's more of a person to person thing. If you only use your watch to check the hour and your fitness statistics, that's your thing. I'm more of a power user when it comes to watches. Browsing the internet, watching YouTube,and other stuff.

Unfortunately, even development for the Android-based ROMs has stopped. You could just install Android Wear 6.0.1 and get a little more use out of it without having the downside of the quick battery drain of the Android 5.1.1 ROM.

Someone developing a GBA/GBC/GB emulator for Tizen is very improbable and quite frankly redundant, since Android Wear is available.

You could ask somebody to make a backup of Gear GemBoy for the S2/S3 and try to install the .tpk file onto the S.

I couldn't find any backup of that app on the internet. Gear Fit2 GBC Emulator is another app you could try asking for around here.

I doubt any of those work, since those are running on newer Tizen versions, but you could still try...

So, I'm trying to fix my friend's phone. She dropped it in a puddle and now it just boot loops. It's stock, not rooted, and I have no access to the developer options. I can barely get into recovery and when I tell it to do a factory wipe, it just boot loops again except in recovery mode. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] painiac:
It sounds like the phone might be hosed. It's somewhat drop resistant and it's water resistant, but if the back cover isn't on well the water resistance doesn't exist. The phone is behaving like the hardware is damaged: a little water may have gotten in and short-circuited something, making the storage inaccessible.

Try connecting to a computer, then boot the phone into Download mode by first holding Home + Volume Down and then holding the Power button. Use the Odin software on the computer to flash a stock recovery image to the phone. That's the only other thing you can try.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Miss Integra:
That's what I was fearing because the back popped off when it hit the water. I've tried using Odin to flash it but it always fails. Odin at least recognizes that it's connected. Any links to a stock recovery that I may be able to use? Thanks. :)
