[General Questions and Answers] Krodha:
Hello all,

I've been reading around this forum and found several guides for installing Cyanogen, but they seem to be made for you to install it on a previous installation, which is not my case, and I also have several questions.

First of all I have Samsung Galaxy SII (GT i9100)... i bouht it on Amazon, so I guess it's american. It still has the software it came from, I have never changed it. I've had several issues with this phone since it was new, like out of the blue I turn it on and it gets on a forever loop with the samsung logo. So everytime this hapens I have to wipe data and factory reset from the android system recovery.

Also about a year ago I got what I believe was a virus it took me a while to get rid of, but although I supposedly did, I feel like some issues are still around.

My question basically, what's the newest android version I could install in my phone? and how could I do it? what's a good guide for it or something?

Thank you so much for your help.

[Xposed General] thasnes:
Hi, I've rooted my phone and installed Xposed.

(S7 Edge on Marshmallow)

Using App Settings I choose to run Chrome in tablet view.

This works with Chrome v49, but when I update to the latest version it's just crashing.

Disable tablet view and it works normally, but I want to have the tabs on top like in tablet view.... I thought it would help with XposedEnableMergedTabs, but it didn't.

Anyone?

I set lower DPI for Chrome, and then it works ... But the text is a bit small for my taste... Are there any fix, or is this the only way to have tabs on mobiles?
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] snej81:
I am experiencing some really strange issues lately with tasks related to Autosync (I am struggling with some other issues related to repeating time context though, see THIS thread)

However, I am creating some really basic tasks with three actions.

A1: Autosync ON

A2: Wait 2 min

A3: Autosync OFF

When I test these actions with the ``PLAY´´ button in the Task, the actions wont play. Nothing happens. When I try to activate the Task with a Profile (connected to wifi), nothing happens either.

If I reboot my phone, the Task starts running and Autosync goes on when the Wifi connects. But if I shuts off Wifi and try running the task with the ``PLAY´´ button or through disconnecting/connecting my Wifi, nothing happens again.

The really strange thing is though that my OTHER ``Autosync work´´-task works every time I test it through ``PLAY´´ button or inactivated/activates it´s profile, the only different between these Tasks are longer wait-interval. I tried to clone this Task since its working and the other one does not, but the cloned Task will not work either. Isn't this VERY strange?

I try to make new Tasks from scratch with Autosync On -Wait - Off, but same issue they wont even start when tested with ``PLAY´´. The only thing I can think of now is some bug with Tasker related to Autosync (and also repeating time context, as mentions in my other thread..)

Is it only me having these problems?
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] GrippingSphere:
No problem here repeatedly running those 3 basic actions in a Task.

There must be something wrong on your end. Maybe you should clear Tasker data and reinstall Tasker from scratch and see if these 3 simple actions can run without any problem.

[Tasker Tips & Tricks] snej81:
It seems that my problems with repeating time context and Autosync tasks that wont run are solved. Thanks [MENTION=4802288]GrippingSphere[/MENTION] for the help!

I did following;

Clear cache/data in Tasker. Uninstall Tasker. Reboot phone. Install Tasker again. Restore old Tasker backup (before my Autosync/repeating time context problems started). Manually restored these profiles/tasks from scratch.

I have logged the repeating time context Autosync today, every task have been performed without misses or delays. So re-installation seems to done it, hope it stays like that ^^

Hopefully this will help others in the future if having similar problems.
[General Questions and Answers] saagark:
Hi All,

I'd like to know how to use ADB to pull files off a Sony Xperia Z2 convertly when it is plugged into a PC.

I am suspecting my son is misbehaving and he is behaving very coy.

Would is also be possible to install some spy software using ADB so that I can more accurately confirm my suspicions?

Thank you in advance.
[General Questions and Answers] Ciprum:
First of all, you should talk to your son about this. Spying and hacking a phone won't solve any parenting issues.

And now to answer your question: Probably not.

If the phone is locked and USB Debugging is disabled you cannot use ADB at all. You have to first enable USB debugging, but to be able to do that you need to know the phone's password.

You could, however, boot into recovery mode to unconditionally activate ADB, but in most cases when you try to do anything the phone will say that you're unauthorized and not allow you to do anything. To authorize ADB you, once again, need the phone's password.

If you do get ADB to work and get it to authorize here are the commands you need:

Pulling files:

adb pull /path/to/file

Installing an app:

adb install /path/to/app/appFileName.apk

There are more methods for what you need that use fastboot, hboot, bootloader unlocking, JTAG etc. but they are a lot harder to do than to talk a problem out with your son.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aiem:
Hello, I have a very big issue with my Note 3. I looked into the issue of Mobile Hotspot being restricted even though the phone itself was unlocked through T-Mobile's phone unlocking process.

I really need the mobile hotspot to be used freely since this phone is planned to be used on other countries outside of the United States. In some countries they do not restrict mobile hotspot tethering and you are free to do so just as long as you have the data available. Also this annoys me that in apps like Shareit, I could not use it if I don't have a sim that can use Mobile Data. That screws me up because the app cannot turn on the mobile hotspot.

Would really appreciate help on this very dire situation.

Experiencing countless bootloops already by following that framework-res.apk modding to remove Tethering provision.

Thanks in advance.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mossywell:
http://xdaforums.com/lg-g2/help/phone-bricked-t3380584 is the start of this.

The story is: two identical D802s purchased at the same time. One works fine. (DirtyUnicorns 6.0.1 v10.2). The other had the problems in the link above. Currently, when it boots, it looks like it it getting into a boot loop: black screen --> LG Logo --> Black Screen --> LG Logo. It does the LG logo a random number of times, sometimes 2 or 3, sometimes 10 but eventually the OS loads (DU logo) and it's fine from there. So, it is not a true boot loop.

What I have done is done a full TWRP backup of a working phone, copied it to the other and then restored all partitions except EFS. When I reboot the dodgy phone, it still does it pretend boot loop thing and eventually boots up. (The working phone of course boots normally.) I'm not sure where the differences are. If I swap the SIMs between the working phone and the dodgy one, the problem remains with the dodgy phone. Faulty phone hardware maybe?

(NOTE: for non-native English speakers: "dodgy" = not completely broken but partially broken!) :)

Any thoughts?

Keeping Two different wallpapers for LOCKSCREEN and HOMESCREEN ( like lumia, Mi devices) isnt it??

IF yes, do one thing.. install a LOCKSCREEN from playstore.. give it notification access and device permissions so that it can work as your Default Lock screen, and Disable real lockscreen present on your phone..

if the lockscreen allows you to keep wallpaper, then keep it ..

Hello everybody,

First of all, Big thanks for all the comunity for the outstanding job :good:

I am an owner of S7 Edge international version and also a Oneplus One (I will explain why I'm mentionning that). On the OPO, I experienced the Sailfish OS and it's a unique experience. What is really interesting is that this OS is swipe and gesture based and I consider that this will suites more the S7 edge because of the edges of the screen. The functions that I would like to import are :

- The swipe and gesture of course (I think that there are already apps who can do that so it's not a problem).

- A minimalist experience with just the Locksreen, Main screen with tiles of all the running apps (Like in Huawei P8 for example) and App drawer.

- A page with notification feed to replace OR in addition to the Notification drawer.

Due to the fact that I have 0 experience in coding and not enough time because of my professionnal life, I would like to know if there is a Launcher (I already searched) or an app or Xposed module that could do that.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] Impact7:
How about Nova launcher pro?

I use the swype down for notification bar and swype up for settings. Also double tap to sleep (but you need to use root there! If not your fingerprint unlock wont work correctly and you always have to use the pin code)

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] WiredBrain:
After rooting the device, what did you do for the fingerprint unlock to work after double-tapped sleep? Any extra steps?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] tmost:
What exactly do you want to do by gestures? There are powerful apps like GMD gesture control etc. I personally use glove box as appdrawer/multitasking tool by a swipe from the edge accessible from everywhere and as mentioned above swipe down for notifications and swipe up for standard appdrawer in Nova launcher. That's all I need to keep my homescreen clean and speed up the work flow.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] Foxhound91:
Please take a look at Sailfish OS to understand what I meant especially for the notification page. I can't post a link yet due to the rules but a quick search on youtube is enough.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] BigBen60:
I use nova and greenify : in the nova settings I make sure that a double tap hibernate apps and turn off the screen (with greenify option in nova). I also use the alternative screen off mode in the greenify settings.

So when I double tap, the screen turns off, and then I can unlock it directly with my fingerprint ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] Impact7:
If you use double tap to wake the normal way and have unlock issues go to:

Settings / device security / other security settings (at the bottom) / device administrator

Untick nova launcher and try to lock it with double tap.

It should now ask you if you want to do it with root.

Hi there,

I'm trying to flash Resurrection Remix 6.0.1 to my Note 3. I've rooted with Kingo, flashed cwmod through ROM manager and done a backup. The ROM file and GApps are ready to go on my SD card. But whenever I try to get into recovery, I end up in the stock recovery instead? Any ideas how I can get around this? From reading around it seems Samsung phones can force stock recovery if they detect anything else. I've read that Philz Recovery can get around this but I don't have a Windows PC (rather than a Mac) to use Odin.

Sometime over the weekend Orange UK have released a new update for the SPV M3100.

Although the software update page still shows the April 07 update, if you click the "downloads & support" tab the top link will download the new October 07 update (50.7mb).

Download Link http://www.orange.co.uk/business/downloads/SPV_M3100_ROMUpdate_1007.exe

UPDATE: This is not the awaited Windows Mobile 6.0 upgrade, but another, seemingly pointless Windows Mobile 5.0 release. :mad:

UPDATE 2: Just been phoned by Orange UK support to an e-mail I sent to them at the end of last week...they still protest that there will be no official Windows Mobile 6.0 upgrade released by Orange UK for the SPV M3100...even thought a number of us have has e-mails to the contrary. The data team will be phoning me back leter this evening once I get home from work...and will update you all with the result of the conversation.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sherlock1971:
Updates 3 & 4

Update 3

Orange UK customer support rung 4 times on Monday night, with the final call being escalated to the department manager. Every excuse under the sun was made for them not to give me the information I was requesting:

"Didn't know what it was..."

"Can't find your request..." etc.

The department manager said he'd contact the data team to find out what was going on...why they didn't do this in the first place is beyond me.

Update 4

The support department manager phoned to 6pm last night to say he hadn't any news as of yet from the data team, and that he wouldn't be in the office on Wednesday (today) and that he will contact me tomorrow...

Watch this space...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] :
I'm watching I'm watching!

This update enables HSDPA. Hers's the complete list:

2, 8, 10 and 11 are of interest to me. What is "Orange New Security Policy" all about?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sherlock1971:
Update 5

Well, Thursday came and went...so did Friday, Saturday & Sunday. And still no return phone call from Orange :mad:

In the end, I phoned them on Monday evening when I got home from work...to the usual answer "Sorry, don't know anything about it."...spent 15 minutes re-outlining the problem and the issues with the current support structure Orange UK have adopted.

The support agent then comes back with "Oh, I've found your previous support call details..." (I wasted 15 minutes due to incompetence) "...but the person you were speaking to previously, works in another office and cannot transfer your call. I will have to email him to get him to phone you back."

I was fuming at this point, and told her I expected the return phone call by the close of the support hours...and surprise, surprise I didn't!!!

I'll give them until 18:00 tonight before I phone them back again...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] :
Sherlock...any updates on this?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sherlock1971:
Update 6

Well, I had to phone Orange again last night...as I've still had no phone call from the person I spoke to last week. Spoke to a very nice lass who, after I again had to explain what was my support request, phoned me back 15 minutes after my original call with an update...

and I quote "The update would be too big for our website..." as she was speaking about the Orange UK Home Page website and not the Orange Business Services - homepage

This was ok, as when I re-explained the support call I forgot to mention the all updates for the SPV M3100 were held on the business site and not the normal site.

So, the up-shot of all this is...I will have to wait for her to get back to me next week with more information...when she has come back from her 3 day off rotation (fri, sat & sun) and had change to chase up the info from the business section.

One thing she did admit though was that "Orange are very slow at releasing anything..." which we all new anyway.

Will post any new information when I receive it...
