[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] treysis:
Hey everybody,

The S4 is definitely getting old, but I am quite happy with it, and keep it running with a lot of tweaks and it totally fulfills my needs. So even if it would be nice to upgrade, I don't see why I should spend the money now (and not rather wait 1 more year).

What I dislike though is that you cannot see the sent-time of received messages. Since Lollipop the SMS-Sent-Time app from the PlayStore has become unrealiable. Google Messenger does show the sent time, but I don't like the interface. It wastes too much space in my opinion. I'd rather stick with the Samsung app. Unfortunately, this one doesn't show the sent time in message details.

So, I was wondering: do the newer version of Samsungs messages app show the sent time (if I have to select this option from a popup is fine for me)? If yes, would it be possible to just take the apk from a newer phone (like s5 or s6) and replace the one on mine? If that's possible as well, where would I get this apk?

Thanks a lot in advance :)

Search for S4 ported apps. Albe95 has a few
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] treysis:
But is it worth it? Does it show the sent time on request, unlike the S4 stock messages app?
[Android General] milosb793:
Hello everybody!

I'm a user of Lenovo A536, and soon i decided to customize it. So i wanted firstly to install fresh version of stock. My phone is single SIM version, and after few hours of googling it looks like there is not singe SIM version firmware available for download. I tried about 5 different versions(last digits of releases):

*910

*725

*141115

*813

and maybe one more... And all is Dual-SIM.

After installing DS Stock ROM, everything seems OK, but, there is network issue. I'm available to use just GSM(2G) networks. My default SIM is SIM 2, not SIM 1 where WCDMA(3G) is setted by default. (Why is this really important to me: most of a day, i'm not at home, so slow network is like i don't have it. ) In SIM Managment there is no another SIM. Just SIM 2, and when i click on it, there is two options, SIM 2 and "off".

What have i tried more:

CODES

I have tried to dial *#*#4636#*#* but, i got two phone infos(Phone info 1 and Phone info 2) and "radio off" is not working as changing mode, on both of it.

Build.prop

I have looked what is seeking there... I saw option something like "...active.sim..." and it has value of 2, and i set that to 1, but that caused bootloop after rebooting....

APPS

I have downloaded some SIM Managers and try to enable/disable SIM 1, and to set 3G to SIM 2, but that was unsuccessful also.

Is there any way to change some system file which contains these settings, to disable one SIM, or just to change SIM 2 to SIM 1?

Or can you find correct singe SIM ROM?

I'm currently on MIUI 8.

Thanks to everyone for attention.

(I'm sorry to MODS if i have posted this thread on wrong place, or named it incorrectly)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] SkyBurner:
Hi ! I have an I-Mate PDA2K with WM6. A couple of months ago I've changed the case (with a black one from O2) and the touchscreen (chinese one, don't know the brand but bought from e2shop) which I bought from ebay. After 2 weeks my speaker was going crazy and sounded weird (when I want to talk and playing music). When I say weird means that it sounded like a TV/Radio ... when a nearby mobile phone starts ringing and I bearly could hear the other person ... you know the sound ... and above all it gets really hot if I play music for 4-5 minutes or if I talk a little more (I would like to mention that for the first 2-3 seconds everything is ok and after that the sound is becoming strange). The same problem was also in WM2003SE (default OS), and the problem disapears when I plug in my headphones. When I send it to Qtek Romania they said that the "Audio Driver" or the "Audio Chip" is faulty and that they don't have the possibility to replace it because it't too old. Does anyone had/has this problem and if yes what can I do to fix it, or what should I buy from ebay, where the chip is located (on the mainbord?). Thanks and I hop I'll receive an answer.

P.S. Forgot to say that changing the speaker won't fix the problem.

Hi,

I would like to root my Huawei Y6 Elite (LYO-L02).

I have tried using both APK and PC methods when available. I used KingRoot, KingoRoot, Framaroot, iRoot, Baidu, TowelRoot, etc.

I tested everything I could find but I have had no success. My boot loader and detail of my devices are:

[General Questions and Answers] Burgerpants:
Replace spaces with "."s

consumer Huawei com/en/index.htm?method=toApplyUnlock

Enter your details

Get them from Settings\About Phone\Status

Then download the Android SDK, and find fastboot.exe

Open CMD from the folder fastboot.exe is in

run in CMD (without quotation marks): "fastboot oem unlock code"

replace code with the code you received from the Huawei site

All this is doing is unlocking the bootloader, which in most phones is usually locked. In order to root, install roms, and other stuff, you need to unlock the bootloader. There is a tool called DC unlocker, but that costs money to use.

then try to root it again. Good luck!
[General Questions and Answers] jfullernz:
Same question as OP

Same phone model, unlocked FTP and bootloader. Tried multiple root programs including kingroot and kingoroot. I have adb but unable to get access to push/mv the su command to the /system due to being read only, and unable to remount do to needing root.

Can't flash twrp either as its too large, so custom is no go either :(

Anyone have any other possible options?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Have you tried:

"fastboot boot recovery" command to run a temp recovery session instead of trying to flash the recovery on the device. If the TWRP you have works on your device then it should be able to fastboot boot.

Have you looked into whether you can repartition your device to make recovery partition larger to accommodate the too large TWRP that you have?
[General Questions and Answers] jfullernz:
Unknown if the twrp works or not. Using fastboot boot tarp.img it gets the generalized remote command unknown error. And without being able to put an image on there partitioning would be pointless, even if it could be done without root access

---------- Post added at 08:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:50 AM ----------

Ok just had some progress. While I can't use the fastboot boot twrp.img and the one I had was too big, I have had success with another version - and hopefully this will help others with my model.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1Z5zkx7AGWGd2JMcDJUcE5yUTg/view has the twrp files (twrp 3.0.2) that has successfully flashed and working on the Ly0-L02 device. This same download also has a supersu update that can be installed from twrp once the recovery is flashed - allowing root access.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MetalChurch1:
Hello All,

I mistakenly placed my OPO in a small puddle of water last Friday morning (3 days ago) and I didn't notice the damage done till the screen started flickering and that's when I noticed the water strains under the screen..Phone calls wouldn't go and the phone shutdown eventually. I searched around and somebody on this forum mentioned they put their phone in a rice bag for a few days after being damaged by tea.. ..that's exactly what i did on Friday evening- placed it in a rice bag and semi sealed it.

It lay in the rice bag till today morning and I intermittently checked couple of times on saturday and Sunday.. Yesterday I noticed that the red light was blinking and the phone would vibrate in my hands upon pressing the power button(under charge). That was the case till now, but just half an hour ago, the battery started charging and i could seen the white charge indicator! When it charged to about 5 %, I tuned it on and everything seems to work - the screen, phone calls, data, wifi..

But I still see the water strains under the screen. Do you recommend that I start using it again or does it need the rice bag treatment for some more time?

I tried removing the back cover to disconnect the battery but I was just not able to..

Thanks for the help guys- and thanks for the suggestions in some of the other threads that I followed.

Regards,

Tej

[Lenovo Phab 2 Pro Questions & Answers] calamari:
Just got off the phone with Lenovo "technical" support. They know essentially nothing about this device (she even had to ask me which Android OS it is running). She told me the only thing she could do was help me to factory reset the phone. I asked to be put in contact with a technical team. She told me there was no such team that could be contacted. She told me to post about it on the Lenovo peer to peer forum. She also was pretty rude, cutting me off all the time and telling me that since nobody was posting about it on the Lenovo forum that it must be an isolated incident. I tried to share the technical information, but it was a waste, because she clearly knew nothing. She didn't even really want to know it, because all she wanted to do was reset the phone.

I have a special request: Could everyone here please post individual threads on their forum complaining about this issue? I doubt it will do any good, but who knows. Here's the URL: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Lenovo-Android-based-Tablets-and/bd-p/lt02_en

This technical support call has left me wondering whether my best option is to return the phone. Clearly they haven't put much effort into getting this device working properly, okay that's not professional of them, but it happens. But, then there is no way to reach a technical person to properly report it, instead it's a dead end with a rep not allowing escalation and leaving me with a reset as my only option (which obviously isn't the solution). That's not a good sign for the future. This is a relatively minor problem, but what happens when we run into a bigger one?

Edit: Gave in and actually went ahead with a factory reset just so I could say I tried everything. The very first thing I did after entering my Google account info was go straight to Google Play and try to install Google+. Still did not install, same error.

Edit: This seems relevant: https://plus.google.com/100471105142802886952/posts/CtKmtMJ4j59

Edit: Downloaded the Google+ apk manually (APKDownloader), decoded it with apktool, modified AndroidManifest.xml to remove the duplicate permissions, etc. Got it to install! But, unfortunately, Google is too smart for me:

Use chrome (I don't know about other browsers), navigate to plus.google.com, then set the tab as a desktop shortcut. Looks and works like Google+ and is not linked to chrome.

[Lenovo Phab 2 Pro Questions & Answers] calamari:
I'm looking for Android notifications, in the pull-down notification area. The Google+ app can provide those. Currently using email notifications as a workaround. I get that you're trying to be helpful, but this is stuff I did on day 1. I think it'd be fair to say I've done everything I can to solve this. Lenovo needs to step up, but they have zero customer service.
[Lenovo Phab 2 Pro Questions & Answers] doctahjeph:
my guess is it won't be killed entirely, but revamped/merged into a new format of some kind.
[Lenovo Phab 2 Pro Questions & Answers] roebling:
Which version works?

At apkmirror.com, it looks like there are 12 different current apks for Google+. I've downloaded four and all four failed to install. If you could go "Settings" > "Apps" > "Google Plus" and give us the exact version number (second line from top) that would be a big help!

Can you screen cap the precise code you got?

It sounds a little like a problem I had once. I couldn't install a program, and I tried side-loading it too. It turned out that I'd previously had it installed and after a clean-up went wrong with Titanium Backup Root, there was still a /data/data directory around which clashed.
[Lenovo Phab 2 Pro Questions & Answers] calamari:
Take a look at the thread, especially my posts #6, #12, and #25. I've already done a full factory reset. Best I can tell, Lenovo simply screwed up the permissions in the Gallery app. Fortunately, they've promised to fix the problem in an OTA update. We could fix this ourselves if we had a full root, but for now we just need to wait for Lenovo.
