[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f4bry90:
Hi everybody,

I updated my Galaxy S2 to CM 13 just yesterday and my recovery changed with a low options one and unable to install any update. When I go to Install Update and then From sdcard0 it says: install failed (on the top) and Installation aborted (on the left).

I usually use Aptoide as market and it doesn't work. If I try to install any app it just says "ERROR" and doesn't download.

Now I tried to connect my phone through USB to put some music and Windows recognize it but it doesn't show my internal memory and I can't access it. Usually in settings and storage I have possibility to change USB recognize into USB external memory and not Media device but I can't find it.

Any suggestion?

Thanks!

so i got a t-mobile wing. my first smart phone. its amazing. anyways i have a few questions:

1. Where can i get a nice big digital clock today screen plugin? i see them on screen shots of peoples screens but i can't find any.

2. Are there any good weather today screen plugins?

3. Some people (or at least on other devices) have SMS as a softkey, mine are calendar and contacts, is there a simple option to make the calendar softkey be SMS instead? or do i have to edit the registry or something crazy like that to get it?

4. Do i really have to worry about viruses on this thing? i saw something like WM5 Anti Virus program, so im just wondering.

5. What is the best browser to use?

if you guys could help me that would be great. i have yet to find a forum about WM6 or the Wing that where people actually go to the site.
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] JLine05:
All of those and more are located within the forum in easy to find threads. The great thing about looking around the forum is you will find stuff out that you never even thought of. I would recommend reading and getting acquainted to the forums, its a much better way to learn than someone just linking you somewhere. And congrats on your new Wing.

i guess my other post didn't show up? well every search results in HTC Home or TouchFlo.

i don't want all the stuff from HTC home, just the clock and simple weather, no tabs or any of that stuff. is there a way to have just the clock and/or weaher?

and thanks for your help

I just wanted to give you a few options so you could try them out for yourself and see what you liked.

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djremix71:
Hey guys,

I've looked around and couldn't find any posts about this. Last night, I flashed my Moto X (XT1096) over to the latest nightly of CM13. From what I had read, CM13 should support Verizon's CDMA network. The phone itself works great without any issues. But, I'm not getting any data connection. I can send and receive texts without issue. I can make phone calls without a problem. But, I don't get any data signal (no 3g or 4g connection).

Is anyone else having this problem? Is there a solution?

Thanks!
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djremix71:
Update: I can receive and send MMS messages as well. I've tried change the Access Point Name selected without effect. In trying to find an updated radio, I was able to find a thread with a modem file here. I flashed the zip file in TWRP and rebooted, but still have no data (3g/4g).
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djremix71:
Final Update: OK. So, I figured it out. I had set up minimal parental controls on all my devices. Apparently, something within Verizon's parental control system does not like the settings within CM. When I disabled parental controls, the data instantly began to connect and I had a strong internet connection. Word to the wise: Don't use Verizon's parental controls with a flashed ROM. Go figure!
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SCHMANKii:
Hello everybody!

I'm interested in buying the Mate 8 but still have a few question I weren't able to find answers to.

I currently own a Nexus 5 and like the clean look of stock Android.

First questions are in regards to themes.

1. Do they still apply when you change the launcher or this somehow linked to the EMUI stock launcher?

2. Can you change the dropdown menu (notifications and quick settings) with these themes, too, in order to make it more like stock Android? Screenshots of the dropdown menu are rarely given.

3. How easy is it to create themes by oneself?

All in all I'd like to have a clean stock look as especially these bubbles around the icons are a pain to my eyes.

I would prefer to NOT have to flash a custom ROM.

The second part of my questions is in regard to Google Now.

1. Do you have the Google Now cards available?

2. Is Google Now on Tap working?

I hope you guys can enlighten me :)

Thanks in advance! :fingers-crossed:
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beachletter:
1. Do they still apply when you change the launcher or this somehow linked to the EMUI stock launcher?

EMUI themes still apply when you change launchers. You can set your custom icons on the launcher desktop, but the themed icon will still appear in other places like the recent apps screen or in notifications. So you will still see ugly rounded square or circle boarder with your icons outside of your launcher desktop. Fortunately this can be solved by installing custom EMUI theme with stock icons, which you can find here: http://foerster.io/hack-huawei-enable-pure-icons-with-no-borders-backgrounds-etc/

2. Can you change the dropdown menu (notifications and quick settings) with these themes, too, in order to make it more like stock Android? Screenshots of the dropdown menu are rarely given.

Themes can change the dropdown menu to a certain extent, mostly changing the shortcut icons. I've yet to see any theme that can make the dropdown menu look completely stock, I don't think it's possible because they operate differently. To me the EMUI dropdown UI looked decent enough (albeit in a different style) so I don't mind it so much.

3. How easy is it to create themes by oneself?

Don't know, never tried it myself.

1. Do you have the Google Now cards available?

I have the international version of the phone (L29), most google services are pre-installed including google now cards. If you get the Chinese version you'll have to install google services yourself, which I heard is a fairly easy process.

2. Is Google Now on Tap working?

You can turn on the now on tap function in google cards settings, but it doesn't seem to work when I long press the home button.

Please note that I'm still on an early EMUI build (B103) and have not yet received any OTA, I don't know if later updates changes anything.

Overall I did get a fairly decent looking UI running on my mate 8. Some UI elements will remain in EMUI style (most notably recent apps and notification dropdown and settings screen) as you can't change those without a custom ROM or at least some root hack, but I don't mind those too much, in fact I liked some of the EMUI design. The worse part of EMUI 4.0 is the launcher and the forced icon background on 3rd party apps, but like I said earlier these can all be averted with 3rd party launcher and custom theme. If you're a diehard fans for the "stock-look" who won't accept any non-material design element then this may not be good enough for you, but it is good enough for me.
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SCHMANKii:
[MENTION=3110024]beachletter[/MENTION]

Thank you a million times, Sir! :)

So did I get this right and you also tried to achieve a more or less stock look?

If so, could you please provide screenshots of your dropdown menu and maybe of your homescreen? :)

Did you own a Nexus phone before the Mate 8, too?

Regarding the dropdown menu of notifications: if I understand it correctly it's more or less working like a timeline, not like on other phones. This can't be changed, can it? I guess I know the answer as themes are supposed to only change the look and not the way things work, but yeah... :D
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beachletter:
This is what my ui looks like after getting custom launcher and material design icon theme.
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beachletter:
I like stock icons and stock recent apps screen, but for notification and quick settings drop down I actually liked EMUI's implementation. I used CM and other near-stock rom in my previous phones.

See the post above for screenshots.
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SCHMANKii:
Alright, thanks again! :)

Now I have most of the information I can possibly get to make the right decision. Hopefully I will :D
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SCHMANKii:
Okay, so I've bought a Mate 8 to test things.

While it is really well designed, is nice to hold and snappy as well, I still can't get myself to like the software that much.

I have tried to apply the theme [MENTION=3110024]beachletter[/MENTION] provided but it somehow doesn't apply correctly and therefore many icons still have that bubble around it (e.g. Chrome, Play Store). Dialer and Contacts are still the same icons.

Regarding Google Now on Tap: this functionality was added with B152 firmware update which immediately showed up while setting up the device.

Additionally I have to say that the horizontal scrolling in the recent apps menu is even more unintuitive than I've thought it would be.
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beachletter:
That's strange, on my phone the dialer and contacts have separate icons (although I usually don't use contacts because I can quick dial any name in dialer to search my contact list) , and I don't see any icon background/border for chrome or play store.

Maybe you should check out the newest version of the theme here: http://xdaforums.com/general/rooting-roms/hack-enable-pure-icons-borders-t3315731

and FYI the launcher I use is NOVA Prime

Good to know google now is back in B152. Unfortunately my phone doesn't get any OTA update above B103 yet. But at least there's no camera focusing issue on my phone, even with B103.
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SCHMANKii:
It's not that bad anymore. I installed Nova Prime as well and added icon packs to fit my preferences.

But with the new theme it's working, even in the status bar! Thanks for providing the link! :)
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beachletter:
Actually I just switched to this theme which seems to have a more comprehensive set of material design icons:

[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FBUENO:
i'm facing two issues and the support is making me crazy

Bad wifi performances while bluetooth is enable

Bluetooth connection drops during calls.

I've opened two tickets and no solution found since one month.

For the first here is their answer :

With regards to your concern, wifi connection and bluetooth are sharing the same tunnel. Whenever you enable the wifi or bluetooth, one of them will go slow.

and

I really do apologize that our product did not meet your expectation. However, we will be escalating this one to our ROM and might do some improvements in the next updates.

For the second :

If this issue persists, please try to update the Bluetooth supported file in your other bluetooth device via system update or try some other Bluetooth which also supported Hands-Free Profile (HFP).

my other phones (lumia, iphone and samsung) work like a charm

i've only issues with the Oneplus X

The Oneplus X has some design issues and oneplus don't want to recognize it.
[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZackoFF96:
that's because the WiFi is only single band of 2.4 GHz, which is the same as Bluetooth operating frequency. that's a design choice (probably to save cost) and a hardware design.

so you'll have to turn off either one to have better WiFi or Bluetooth performance.

cmiiw.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danohhsee:
Okay so i'm having some issues flashing this rom. While installing it tells me that the file im using' lte' is the wrong one for my device and that I should be using wifi. My tab is SMT705 .. i'm very confused, any ideas?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danohhsee:
Update

Accidental reply.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
You need to install the t700 version of twrp to install the wifi version of cm or remove the assert lines from the updater script.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danohhsee:
How comes it won't let im install the lte version of cm when my tablet is lte enabled? Also, this is my first ever time flashing a rom so I don't know what the updater script it.

I tried installing the wifi version of cm, doing what the error said. The installation went a little further but got stuck at 'flashing the image conditionally'
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
It doesn't matter what your device is, you need to use the right recovery. If you have installed the t700 version of recovery then cm will think your device is a wifi version.

You have to wait at the flashing image conditionally message. Its not stuck, it takes a while for the rom to install, just be patient.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danohhsee:
Ok, so as far as I'm aware, the TWRP recovery I'm using covers both t700 and t705. So would you suggest using a different recovery, or just flashing the wifi cm?

Thanks for your help btw
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
Just use the t705 specific recovery.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danohhsee:
I can't find a specific t705 recovery, could you point me in the right direction please?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danohhsee:
I realise it looks like I'm asking you to do it for me, but even on the TWRP website, it only gives me this option https://twrp.me/devices/samsunggalaxytabs84.html which I believe isnt the t705 recovery.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] StrumerJohn:
I'd say go for it if you're into photography. I wouldn't get it personally because I don't really go out or do a whole lot outside of my home. Here's an article with some more information on it, but I still don't see any pricing. Depending on the price, I'd say you're better off getting a smaller/compact camera, but if the actual user reviews of this phone's camera are just as awesome as the ones in reviews and by Sammy, it might be a good investment if it can take pictures near DSLR quality.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
I'm still going to buy it because it's a nice option to have. I have a DSLR which a phone will never match for many reasons when used properly. I still think Samsung has a good concept with their lens system.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] PoisonWolf:

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
Mobilefun in Canada has it up for pre-order with a 2-3 week ETA. It costs $116.99 + $20 for shipping since they require tracking and that's the only method with it. At that price I think it's worth it assuming they are at ast decent quality lenses. I've seen Samsung list it on their website outside of the US only so we might not get it here without importing it which is unfortunate. Currently Samsung's Swiss site has it being released during week 19 this year aka May 9-15th which more or less fits mobilefun's launch window.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
Just a FYI I have the case on order and it should be here in the next week or so. You can expect a detailed review when I get it
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] le0.br4zuc4:
where did you order it from? I want to order one for me!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
MobileFun here's the link for you: http://www.mobilefun.com/58340-official-samsung-galaxy-s7-edge-lens-cover-black.htm

It's pricey with the mandated express shipping, but then again no OEM accessory is cheap. I really hope it's worth the money because I've been looking forward to it since it was announced.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] le0.br4zuc4:
Just ordered it. Thanks bro
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
Not a problem! It says they're due in stock within 1 week; let's hope that's the case! Samsung's Swiss online store has them listed as being in stock during the 2nd week in May so it's entirely possible that they will be out next week in North American. I still doubt any US retailer will carry them in a timely manner if at all due to how obscure of an accessory it is. Samsung also hasn't said much about it, so they either don't want to sell a lot of them, or hope they will sell themselves.

My estimated ship date is 5/3 did they give you one?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] le0.br4zuc4:
I'm glad there is a place to order it. I've been looking since I got the phone and no luck. My shipping date for now is May 3rd as well but we'll see. Hopefully it won't get delayed... I can't wait u til I get that case
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
Same, I was starting to get the feeling that Samsung wasn't going to ever release it until someone PM'd me a link to it earlier this month. I've seen it on Samsung's website but that's about it (not their US one implying it won't launch here)

I'm really hoping that date is accurate since it does match Samsung's posted one on their Swiss site more or less as I mentioned; let's hope for the best!

I thought this would sell a little better or at least garner more interest given that it's an OEM accessory meaning it should be high quality give Samsung's fairly good mirrorless cameras
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] le0.br4zuc4:
That's the reason I'm getting it. I'm hopeful the quality is good, better than those after market kits. I got Samsung's OEM leather case and I'm happy with the quality so I really hope the camera lense case is better because the price is 4 times the price of this leather case
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
I have a DSLR that I use frequently, but I was hoping this would work as a quick option while I'm on the go and actually have a camera (my phone) with me. I'm sure the lenses will be nice, so let's hope the case has metal threads and it's made well
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Provinomico:
Weird, I couldn't find any technical information regarding the lenses, basic stuff like focal length in 35mm equivalent and final resulting aperture. Has it been published? if S is trying to appeal to photogearheads, they need to throw the specs around first...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
I haven't seen any information on that either, but I did find some additional specs on Samsung's Greek store (see below). If you find out the focal length equivalent let us know!

Samsung Store
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Provinomico:
According to that info, and given that the focal length on the camera is 26mm, the wide angular adapter will get the focal length at around 16mm, and the teleconverter at 52mm. Given those two transformations I guess the loss of aperture would be close to 2 stops, that would get the 50mm at f3.5, which will be nice for portraits. I hope that the loss of IQ is acceptable and distortions well controlled, given the size/price of the adapters I would expect them to perform way better than anything similar that's on the market right now.

Keep us informed on the progress of your orders!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] GadgetMe:
I'm very excited to hear reviews from you guys when you receive yours
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
Thanks for clarifying that, I wasn't sure how to read whats what after it was translated due to the way Google does it. I'm hoping Samsung put as much time into these lenses as they did the camera otherwise I don't see why they would bother releasing it. I will keep everyone updated when mine ships!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] le0.br4zuc4:
I do too but like you said we don't always have the DSLR on us so this would be a good on the go solution.
