Is it possible to use an older version of touchwiz on the note 5? I can't stand the folders and not being able to make folders in the app drawer. I don't want to use a different launcher because i like the action note on my screen. Thanks guys
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] piezan:
Or does anyone know of a way to use stock widgets on other launchers?
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willcor:
hi ,

well, i have been using Nova Prime for many years !.

You can nearly use all stock widgets........

with the exception of maybe, one or two widgets .( all in all )

good luck

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] b2thrill:
Are there any adapters/gadgets so I can use my wired headset and charge my kaiser using the mini-usb plug at the same time.

I would like to watch my slingbox player using the headset, but I also watch to charge the unit at the same time. Is this possible?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Entropy512:
Yeah, there's a Y-cable available. Mobileplanet/Expansys sells it, so does XDA Store. The AT&T 8525 came with the Y adapter, Tilt does not. :(

Mobileplanet's prices are pretty steep - Around twice that of XDA store even if you don't have an XDA Store member discount. XDA Store doesn't have a good headphone adapter though, just a "brick" one, not a right-angle-short-cable one.

Are there any vendors that carry both the Y-adapter and a "cable" style 3.5mm adapter?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] pmow:
The 8525 one is of poor design. The L-plug that the headphones have interfere with being able to plug in the power...it needs to be shoved in there.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] LANGuru:
Good News and Better News

Checking around yesterday, found the 8525-style Y splitter available under $20, and the HTC 3-in-1 even better approach, with total shipped prices varying, that does mini-usb, 3.5mm audio, and that HTC ExUsb 11 pin mini (so you can hang this adapter off your wired stereo headset with mic and remote controls) and still have stereo on a 3.5mm jacked out to a line in, and charge with the other mini usb jack. Both available yesterday from the HTCStore.
[Other SmartWatches] ezmendriz:
Hi to all,

I have read a lot in the forums but I cannot find what I am looking for.

I wish to find a smartwatch with the following features:

1) Show notifications from my phone.

2) Media Control. I normally use BT headphones. I wish to be able to control any media player (google music, pandora, spotify,etc) from the watch but listening in the headphones.

3) call control. In the same way I want to be able to see who is calling and reject or accept the call, but the call directed to the headphones and not the watch.

I use to have a Chinese watch and though it was good I cannot pair my bt headphones and the watch at the same time. Is there any kind of watch that provide this?

Thanks a lot,

Ezmendriz
[Nexus 5X Accessories] OhioYJ:
So across all my devices I've always found my batteries last longer on each charge the slower I charge them. Used to be quality 0.5a - 0.7a chargers were easy to find. These days not so much, even many USB hubs are putting out 1.0a+ on charge ports.

Anyone found a decent low amperage charger?
[Nexus 5X Accessories] OhioYJ:
I contacted Anker, as I have several of their chargers. They do not offer anything like this and suggested I just search Amazon. While they tried, I'd like to come up with a known good quality charger.

My other thought was to use a USB 2.0 hub, but I need to find one that is powered all the time, not just when the PC is on. The problem with most of them, is the ones that are powered when the PC is off, are charge ports and supply 1.0+ amps to those ports.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] OhioYJ:
Looks like I found a solution to this. I already have a couple D-link USB hubs and have been doing some testing. They do indeed provide power across all 7 ports, without a PC hooked to them. All the tests below are using a in spec USB C to A cable (has the 56k resistor).

D-Link Hi-Speed USB 2.0 7-Port Powered Hub (DUB-H7) (<-- Amazon Link)

Using a cheap USB tester (so don't expect 100% accuracy), I'm seeing (no PC connected):

4.85volts - 0.36 amps on standard ports.

4.78volts - 0.45 amps on the charge ports

Tests below are just for reference, and seem to indicate that my "cheap" USB tester isn't too far off.

Anker 5 port USB charger I'm seeing:

5.19 - 2.35 amps

Official Apple charger (5v - 1.0a)

5.06 - 0.83 amps

Official Samsung charger (5v - 1.0a)

5.02 - 0.98 amps

Now time to see what the Anker is doing with other devices, and order a couple more D-link hubs.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] OhioYJ:
My Amazon ordered arrived, and the new D-link hubs are Rev C1, but they function exactly as the Rev B1 I tested above.

On top of that I ordered a Anker USB 3.0 7-port hub as a replacement for hub for my desktop. To my surprise this would also work as a slow charger.

Anker USB 3.0 7-port hub

The 6 standard ports charge at 0.38 amps without a PC connected. The last port, which is a charging port, charges at 1.24 amps. So this would give a faster charging port if you needed it.

All the Android devices, bluetooth devices and cameras, all work fine charging from these ports (0.38 amp). The one exception is my wifes iPhone, it does not recognize them and will not charge from them. However if I use the charge port (0.45 amp on the dlink hub) it charges fine. Not sure why that little bit of a difference matters to the iphone, but it does.

Hi everyone, my Z3c has a scratched camera cover, I can no longer take pictures as everything looks blurry. I've read that I can buy a replacement for the cover, but my question is if to do this, I also need to change the backcover.

Yes, You need to change whole back door cause camera glass lens in glued to back door and if You gonna try to peel it off most likely back door will breaks. Anyway back door replacement costs 5$ and original one around 20$.

I don't understand what to do.

Theme changes icons, I can't... I just want to remove blue color of dock (cuz white is better) and icons of app (I don't wanna change), but keep icons of settings and status bar.

I don't understand how to do blue icons of settings and icons of status bar without theme...

Overlays change only icons of wi-fi and link, and icons of display and payment in settings. Color of music changes too.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] arcanexvi:
Pardon me if this is already posted but I'm sitting in the hospital bored and figured I'd dig around to see if this could be enabled on the Tmobile variant of the s7(edge).

During the announcement they showed off the incoming caller ID by whitepages which is quietly hidden away so that Tmobile can sell their caller ID service. It is still on board though.

1) Download an activity manager. (Such as https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sika524.android.quickshortcut)

2) Let it load then search for the word identify.

3) A single result should show up under phone settings.

4) Launch it and enable the setting.

5) Haven't had the chance to test yet but as long as the framework is on board it should work.

This setting is normally under advanced settings for the system but hidden by Tmobile.

I understand carriers have their own service, but this kinda stuff should be illegal. Once my phone is paid off, it should be treated as an unlocked phone and the carriers shouldn't be blocking features or services that come with the phone.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] loogielv:
If I'm right, and I'm never right, this is probably to enable the Google proprietary caller ID feature suits TMobile has their $3.99 a month caller ID feature Google disable this and our phones for T-Mobile my guess is that right there turns it back on but you also have to have the service enabled somehow as in maybe a Google Voice phone number something like that

This is what I am currently doing, I just find it baffling that we have free services that we can use as part of a product we bought but we have to download and app to use it, even do it should be part of our dialer.

I've emailed John Legere, the CEO of T-Mobile about this. I suggest all copy and send this as well. Maybe change a line or two.

John.Legere@t-mobile.com

"

Dear John,

Today I am writing you in regards to some disappointments I've had with T-Mobile and my new Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. First issue is the locked down bootloader but I've been following and I believe the latest was that your engineers are still in talks with Samsung's. Is that the latest?

The other point I am writing you this evening is due to a valuable feature the phone has built in that I believe T-Mobile has disabled, Spam Filtering/Caller Identification using Whitepages. I am fully aware that I can download third party apps that'll accomplish the same results. I am also fully aware that part of the T-Mobile "bloatware" is similar, "T-Mobile Name ID." I believe it does almost the same thing and is even powered by Whitpages but IS a monthly subscription. That's the part that really gets to me, the fact that the manufacturer of the new device I just purchased includes such a valuable feature and the "un-carrier" removes it in place of a paid-for alternative.

John, what I am asking is that you please have your team re-enable the stock Whitepages integration that Samsung developed for this device. To add insult to my sadness of the missing feature, I found that Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 variants have this feature enabled out of the box.

I am close to returning this device and wouldn't want to leave to another wireless provider but I feel if I cannot get these changes, I may have to. I wouldn't really mind the missing feature as much if my bootloader was unlocked because I'd be able to load whatever software I wanted on it, but that's not the case.

If you'd like more information on the Whitepages integration that I am speaking of, here is a YouTube clip outlining it: https://youtu.be/cm9Ju1hMFaY

I thank you kindly for any consideration and hope we can get things going smoothly. I am really liking this device but unfortunately there are some deal breakers in tow.

Best regards,

Your Name

This makes me regret buying a carrier branded phone!! this is the last time I will give my hard earned money to a carrier for a device because they will have features removed, Verizon did the same thing with Samsung pay but at least people were able to side load the app from the play store, but in this case we are jacked out of a feature that Samsung put in the device.
