Smart Launcher Pro here... Got my phone via preorder yesterday and although there are some nice features on the stock launcher, I hate how Samsung has monetized every aspect of it.

Smart Launcher Pro 3 w/ Stealth Icon pack.

I like Samsung new stock launcher but would go Nova Pro once I get bored.

Stock would be tempting if it didn't force swipe right intro Bixby.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] rajeshr:
Used the stock launcher for a couple of days, but went back to Nova Pro/Tesla. More customizable and I can get unread count badges for more apps than the stock Sammy launcher.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] crankshaft:
Well the stock launcher lasted all of about 15 before i installed Nova!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] kc2kzz:
I gave the stock launcher a shot, the overly large icon folders and the side to side app drawer kept annoying me. I also missed the double screen tap gesture I had to bring up the google cards and the icon layout just didn't seem to flow for me either. Back to Nova Prime.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] safetypinz:
Nova for sure. Lasted 4 hours stock. My nova looks and feels great
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] verks7:
Nova pro for me. Been using the stock launcher to test it out. Not bad but I wish it looped.

Has anyone noticed that the infinity wallpapers don't work on both the home and lock screen after Nova is set as default launcher?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Jonathan-H:
Pinch in on the home screen (or hold a finger on the screen) to bring up the options, then swipe right, and turn off bixby with the little tick :)

I gave the stock launcher a shot. It's been less than a week and I'm back to Nova Pro.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] bagged00:
Does anyone have problems with pulling the app drawer up with nova? I thought it was a sensitivity issue with my screen protector, but I switched back to touchwiz and had no problem opening the app drawer
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] jroyalty7:
Yes I noticed this too. You have to start at or just above the dock icons with nova. With touchwiz it didn't seem to matter where you started as much.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] zathus:
28 seconds. That's how long before I defaulted to nova lol. It's just to good
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] cpufrost:
Yeah I had to up the DPI in dev options to get the text under the icons to fit.

Now I just need to wear my reading glasses to see it! :D

Just installed Nova again. Damn. So much faster than the TouchWiz launcher.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ray Koopa:
Problem with "overly sensitive" touch screen; registers fingers just by hovering it

I changed to Lineage OS 14.1-20170412 yesterday, after having had an about 1-year old Cyanogenmod stable on it.

Now I got a smaller issue with it; I'm pretty sure it didn't do that right away after installation.

It started to register my fingers when they are already hovering above the screen, like 2-3cm away from it. It feels like a proximity sensor, just all over the screen, not turning off the screen when you get close but creating graphical hover effects:

When I'm in the Android settings for example, the settings category rows get a gray back color.

In Chrome, links get underlined when hovering them from far away.

The quick panel creates white bubbles around the tiles.

While this isn't causing any misbehavior (I can't actually press anything of those things by moving my finger up to 3cm towards the screen, and then moving it away immediately), it's visually annoying.

I did not do anything special since it started to happen, and already checked on the following:

- Glove mode is not turned on.

- There's no other "Accessibility" stuff turned on.

- When showing tabs in the developer options, it does not register it as taps, and does not start drawing a line when hovering the finger around on the screen.

Is there any way to "recalibrate" the "sensitivity" or turn this thing off it's a feature and not a bug? :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackhab:
Check Settings > Air view. I'm not sure about custom ROMs but on my stock ROM this is what causes the links in Chrome to get underlined when hovering.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ray Koopa:
I indeed found something in Settings which i must've accidentally enabled: Language & Input > Touchscreen Hovering (under Mouse/trackpad). When it's on, you get the effects I noticed, so i turned it off.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] senny22:
So i've gone through every thread here without success. I have a unlocked bootloader but no OS nor custom recovery and i cant get into fastboot mode to install twrp. When i use ADB it wont find my device unless i go into Stock recovery -> update through ADB and even then it only recognized my device as sideload. What can i do? When i tried to use the MiFlash tool i cant seem to get the correct qualcomm drivers installed. what can i do?

Edit: I solved my issue by downloader the stock B08 system on my S5 and then i placed it in the external sd. Then i put the SD back into the Axon and installed the system. After i had installed the system and booted into the OS i could enter adb with my device being recognized and after that i flashed twrp by using ADB.

I have a new problem though and that is that i can't install the 3.1.0.0. twrp. it only boots into black screen when i enter recovery. I can use the 3.0.4.0. version though.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] nonamesl:
You can't enter fastboot mode on your phone. Correct?

I also assume that you installed a ROM from recovery and that's what caused the brick, right?

What happens when you try to enter recovery?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] raystef66:
Go into My Computer, manage, devices and try to uninstall all drivers that are possibly related to your device.

Unplug your phone and let the drivers reinstall by itself.

Go into ADB and see if ADB Devices works.

If possible go into ADB reboot edl and try to reflash custom recovery : "axon7tool -w recovery"

When recounting unplug your phone and see if you can reboot, shutdown and enter into TWRP.

ps : i hope you have a backup ?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] senny22:
Correct. It simply reboots.

Yup, i tried installing the B29 stock system on my G model and so i suppose i had the wrong bootstack becasue this is where my problems started.

I get to the stock android recovery.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] senny22:
It still wont recognize my device. Which driver am i supposed to have in the Device manager? Do you think i can use my old S5 to transfer a Stock system to the sd card and then update my phone manually through the stock recovery and then when i have an OS installed maybe i can connect to ADB. I read somewhere that ADB commands only works in recovery and in the OS.

I have a twrp backup of my system on my SD card so no worries there.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] raystef66:
You should see your phone as QUSB_BULK. Installed the ZADIG drivers ? That may cure the problem.

After that, imo, it is important you can reboot edl and flash TWRP recovery again AND when it recounts, you pull usb.

Normally you will have replaced recovery , reboot ok and you can enter TWRP and fastboot also.

ps : sometimes it is also advisable to go to ADB RECOVERY directly and do the processes.

ps2 : when TWRP backup, you can always put it on SD via other phone and in TWRP restore. Normaly you're good to go then...
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] nonamesl:
Try the Marshall London Bootloader Interface driver maybe?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] senny22:
Ok, should i be able to find my device with "adb devices" if i uninstall all the other drivers and install this driver?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] nonamesl:
Installing the driver and using it for the phone (device manager -> change driver manually (or something of the sort)) worked for me, but it could differ. Let me know. You don't have to uninstall other drivers just use that specific one for your phone by switching the driver manually via device manager.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] roly151:
Hi,

I have an MTCB unit and the seller has created (what I think is) a custom app that controls the HVAC for the car. Within the app, you can choose to view "Info" - this screen shows Range to Empty, Average Speed, and another item.

I would like to figure out how to access Range to Empty so I can show it on the main screen of a Launcher I am developing. Does anyone know how to access this - I'm assuming it's through the CANBUS?

Thanks in Advance. (I would post this in the development section, but as this is my first post, I am not allowed to post in there.

Cheers

The phone freezes.Its just kind of unuseable.I have nougat running anyway to fix this issue.i have root also.Games also dont run fps on shadow fight 2 on lowest settings are horrible.

I tried installing Ram managing app it showed 500 to 800 mbs free ram.So i have no idea what to do.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Domin_PL:
Firstly check CPU usage using e.g gsam battery monitor, and let it gather data for at least one day testing. If will be nothing special, go through next step.

Try to disable big cores when you have root. If it will help keep it disabled because it will bootlop when enabled.

If nothing happen flash factory image and test it one day without apps. If it will be okay without apps - you have obvious answer. If not - hardware issue.

[General Questions and Answers] end222:
Hello everybody!

I have tried to port some ROMs for my phone (Redmi Pro) but even if the ROMs are booting there are still some bugs. One of them is that whenever I plug my headphones the sound comes out of the speaker and the headphones at the same time. I thought it would be easy to fix as the headphones are working so I would only need a configuration that muted the speaker whenever the headphones are pluged but even if I tried a lot of things I did not find a solution, and that is why I am asking this here.

I have the same bug in different ROMs ported from different devices. I would also like to remark that I have reached this state by leaving all the audio files of the original ROMs.

If you have any idea, even if you are not sure if i will help, please reply, I will be glad to try any suggestion.

Thanks in advance

Usual rip off UK. £600 for the standard version and £670 for the LTE version. Same as $ price?

Interesting uses Snapdragon cpu. Usually we have Exynos in Europe.

It does have the "Phone" and "Text" apps there, I can't make a call though because my SIM is data only.

The international version is always fully functional. Only US carrier devices pull that crap.

+1 for another UK user with the LTE model.

Had mine for a week now and enjoying the display and S-Pen - performs better than the Tab S 8.4 it's replacing, so I'm a happy camper so far.

I'm using mine with the book cover (not keyboard case) _ what has everyone else opted for?

Hi guys I've got a weird problem and couldn't find any other thread on it. Basically my problem is if I leave my phone off for a while then when I turn it back on it says the date is 11th January 1970 and the wrong time. To fix it I either have to reboot or disable and enable WiFi again. My Internet connection says connected, no Internet until the date updates itself. The problem doesn't seem to be a rom or kernel issue as I wiped my phone and just had my rom, kernel and root and there was no problem. If anyone knows what I can do to fix it then please let me know. I think the problem could be either an app conflict or app and system conflict. Could it be a mod or app I installed causing the problem? Thanks for any help guys:)

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DEVILOPS 007:
Yeah, that's already automatic. The time does it automatically but it just takes a minute or two and sometimes a reboot.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5.1:
This is weird. I have never encountered the same issue.

Try disabling automatic date & time and automatic time zone.

Reboot and activate cellular data. Then go back to settings and re-enable both automatic date & time and automatic time zone. See if that helps.

If you think about a mod/app issue, just think about what new mod/app you installed since your issue occured.

Good luck...

Is anyone here using the fingerprint unlock facility with a >80% success rate? I find that, at least 50% of the time, when I place my finger on the button I get presented with the PIN screen and a message saying something like "device locked by administrator". I've tried re-learning my fingerprint 3 times but it didn't help. The Smart Lock using my Asus Zenwatch is no better - in fact it works <25% of the time.

Is anyone here having better luck?

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Icetea:
I use Nova Launcher too and have no problems! 100% reliability!

But i have scanned all my fingerprints twice ( two finger profiles for every finger!) to get better scanning identification.

BTW: I have protected "FingerprintASM; & FingerprintAuthenticator" Task against battery optimization to get better results.:D

So fingerprint recognition is a little faster after a long time of device sleeping period.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] lnvincible:
Mine works perfectly, 100% of the time.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] PhantasmRezound:
"Settings > Fingerprints and Security > Phone Administrators" One or more apps there have been enabled with "Lock the screen" permission and you're triggering its method to get that prompt.

System-based locking methods don't get that prompt, e.g. screen timeout, double-tap on status bar, hitting power button...

Any method that hooks into the lock process by this admin permission usually prompts for the code as you found. For example, my launcher (Smart Launcher Pro) has a double-tap to sleep option if enabled as admin. However, it asks for code even on successful scan every time. I keep the status bar visible and tap it instead now.

Take a closer look at your admin list and evaluate apps - whether to uninstall, disable admin permission, or try to turn off that lock screen setting only inside the app(s).

Also consider registering main finger(s) at least twice as [MENTION=6142732]non-toxic[/MENTION] noted above. I had about 80% successful scan rate and that trick got me to virtually 100%.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] itm:
Thanks. It turns out that Nova had admin permissions. I've disabled them and now fingerprint unlock works fine. I also had another app/widget installed - Screen Off and Lock. This was a useful widget that I positioned in the bottom left corner of the screen so that I could easily turn off the display with my thumb when I was using the phone left-handed. Unfortunately that caused problems for fingerprint unlocking as well.

Does anyone know of another way of turning off the display with one tap near the bottom of the screen? I know that double-tapping on the notification bar will do it, but that's usually a 2-handed operation.
