Go here and find an older version, they have older versions of all kinds of apps.

Ad blockers don't really help very much with ads that run in-app in my experience. Ad blockers are more effective when browsing the web via the various mobile browsers.

Thank you for the reply. it really means a lot to me to actually get rid of all the annoyance from that app which does not even offer a cleaner one which can be bought separately and it would be great if you could recommend me from where to start because this is what i came here for in the first place :].
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
You can use APKTool to decompile the app then modify it. Where and what you need to edit is something you'll have to figure out. After editing to suit your purposes, re-sign and re-compile the apk then use the app.

I would recommend using an older version of the app from APK mirror that wasn't such a pain. Then add the newer features from the current version that want to keep if you are going to go through the trouble of modifying an app, it may be easier this way instead of trying to remove things from the newer version.

[Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra Questions & Answers] ZetaKappa:
Hi guys,

Just sold my iPhone 6s Plus to come back to Droid.

During IFA in Berlin I felt in love with this Sony but many reviews are saying around the net: battery sucks, camera focus slow, in-call audio and music audio too low.

Can someone that got this phone give me some hint about this topic?

p.s. I can take it for about 270 like new.
[Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra Questions & Answers] LevsOG:
Hi there, I recently got my XA1 Ultra after owning the Xperia X for just over a year and before that I owned a Xperia Z2 for 2 years. The X was a premium mid ranger and really did like it, but could of been a lot better. Jumping ship to XA1 Ultra felt slightly weird (bigger screen and mediatek chipset) as the colours don't look as intense as they were on my X, as for the battery I have had some great sessions from the XA1U and I personally think that this is down to the Helio P20 being very efficient on the battery.

Make sure you don't have Facebook installed as this can be battery heavy (kills my battery on my X) and I also use Greenify to force close apps that are running in the background to save battery. I have also installed Battery Care from Sony which records your charging pattern and will charge upto 90% and hit 100% at the time you 'wake up' etc.

As for the camera I can't say I have used it a lot but have used it now and then, I believe it uses the same rear module from the Z5 (I may be wrong but sure a fellow user told me this). As always many camera can struggle in low light but this camera seems to try and overcome that which is quite good, also let's not forget the awesome front flash!

As for in call audio I've had absolutely no problems with this whatsoever, as for the music audio being too low I've listened to a few of my tracks on the single speaker built into the phone and it's not the best but it's fairly decent considering there is only one speaker...

My only concerns at the moment I think are software based:

1) Sound can go 'tinny' like for 5 seconds or so and revert back to normal (you can really notice it and happens a lot)

2) Sometimes when waking the device the screen won't wake therefore you will have to wait 10 seconds or so or continuously press the power button.

3) SystemUI has crashed on me a few times, but it's not regular but I have seen elsewhere other people suffering from the same problem.

4) When installing a downloaded APK from third party site i.e. APK Mirror, when you go to install and it offers to press next or cancel, it won't let you press next therefore you can't install the APK. You have to restart the device and then the next button will work.

[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theGekkoST:
I got the dreaded bootloop issue a while back and had to send my phone to LG for repair. After I got the phone back (damaged from them opening it); the phone would crash once a day. It would be a hard crash too, nothing including the power button and volume buttons would work. I would need to hold down power+volume for 10 sec. to do a hard reboot.

I decided to reinstall the factory operating system that I downloaded from Google . Ever since the then the volume coming through the main phone speaker is very quiet during phone calls. I have to mash the phone against my head and plug the other ear to hear anything. I can't find a good answer to what might have happened. And I don't think it would be a hardware issue since it started immediately after flashing the stock ROM. I've flashed it twice now and it still has the same issue.

I just used the "flash-all.bat" command to do it. Could there be an issue with the radio.img file or something else I'm missing entirely?

Side Note - I had to pay LG to fix it because they said it wasn't under warranty. Even after the customer service guy told me that they would fix it for free when I talked to them on the phone. It took them about 4 months to send my money back.

I would appreciate your help. I don't want to loose what I have now, was just hoping to upgrade?
[Amazon Fire Phone] najoor:
For most of you this info will be redundant, however, if you are one of the odd people who may still find a deal on Ebay or swappa for an AT&T locked fire phone and want to buy it, please be advised that AT&T will not give you the unlock code because: "The device is no longer supported by the manufacturer and we cannot obtain an unlock code." and they tell you to contact the manufacturer. Then if you try to contact Amazon they will tell you that only AT&T can unlock the phone and they send you back to them and you can spend a good part of one week between the two companies and at the end you will likely have to go to a phone repair shop and pay them $$$ to unlock it for you or purchase a code online.

So be warned, don't buy a sim-locked amazon fire phone unless you are willing to stay with AT&T forever.
[Amazon Fire Phone] maxinfo:
This isn't true. At least not for me, I unlocked mine today via ATT request site and had it in least then 10 minutes.

https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/
[Amazon Fire Phone] Android#:
I also couldn't get an unlock code from AT&T a few months back. After multiple calls to both AT&T and Amazon, what I found out was that Fire phones were sold through multiple third-party companies other than Amazon and AT&T. AT&T is willing to provide unlock code if the phone was directly bought from AT&T but if an AT&T branded phone was bought from a third-party (like mine), they were not allowed to give out unlock codes. Your phone was probably originally sold by AT&T directly and this is why you were able to get the unlock code. In my case I even tried unlock services on eBay but they also refunded my money saying they can't get the code. Recently, I bought another Fire phone on eBay for $20 (which was sold for parts but was almost new, nothing wrong with it) but it turned out it was locked to AT&T, and I was unable to get it unlocked so just been using it as a media player.

I also wouldn't recommend anyone intending to use the phone on carriers other than AT&T to not buy the locked version because more than likely you will not be able to get it unlocked (this is why AT&T locked Fire phones on eBay are considerably cheaper than the unlocked versions).
[Amazon Fire Phone] maxinfo:
Mine was bought from some eBay reseller 2 years ago to get something for upgrading prime for another year.

I suddenly needed to use it as a backup up phone for a short bit and tested the site above and it worked fine.

I believe you that ATT won't bother with some phones. Just sharing my experience. I would steer anyone away from buying a Fire Phone without any bootloader unlock.

However, if you're like me and have one then might as well plug the IMEI in on the ATT form and see what happens.
[Amazon Fire Phone] ozan2:
Somebody knows a fix for fire phone? Mine is stucked at black amazon logo, can't reach fire logo, reboots continously and can t get into recovery. I am from Romania and i bought fire phone 1 year ago(i have 2 year warranty), so i send it in warranty and they said that my phone have touchscreen broken and liquid sign near usb charging port. I claimed the reseller to consumer protection. I want to say that my phone looks like a new one, and they lie about borken touchscreen and liquid sign. Btw, i can't fix this phone, pc doesn;t recognize fire phone. Fire os 4.6.6.1 all stock. Knows somebody a fix,please...?
[Amazon Fire Phone] najoor:
[MENTION=7418094]Android#[/MENTION] is right. If the AT&T branded phone is originally purchased from any outlet other than AT&T then they don't have the unlock code to give you. In your case the original owner had probably got it from AT&T directly and that is why you could get the unlock code from their website.

Somehow amazon offloaded at&t branded phones onto third party vendors without giving them the unlock codes, and now if you are in the unfortunate position of owning one of those phones no one can give you the unlock could. The people who sell you the codes on ebay likely have an insider at AT&T to obtain the codes and as I said AT&T doesn't have those codes. So the only entity in the world who has those codes is amazon, which is being an a$$ and not giving you the code. I don't understand why they are doing this.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] jerm8832:
The screen ghosting on my Moto G4 Plus has been getting worse. I don't take credit for this fix. This fix can be done through an app making me believe it can be permanently fixed with a software update. Download sFilter Lite from the Play Store. I've attached a screenshot with the settings. Give it a few minutes and the ghosting will disappear. I hope this will help others.

Do we have to keep this app running for a longer time? If yes please tell me the approximate duration.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] jerm8832:
I keep the app running at all times. I don't think the pixels are being burnt in. If so this software solution wouldn't work.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] suvam69:
Mmm seems to be working but if the app gets turned off ..the ghosts return. A better app suggestion is Color Filter since in this app thre won't be any annoying notification running all the time.

You can completely remove the notification by long pressing it, then tell the app to disable notifications.

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] pcbroch:
Hi all:

I'm fighting to get my steering wheel controls to work with my MRCD XRC PX3 Radio (Bought from Hizpo, a 2 DIN Nougat 7.1 unit). I have bought an ASWC-1 and hooked it up as per instructions for my Civic 2012, but I'm not successful in programming my radio. The "Steering Wheel Control" app that's installed opens up a blank screen with "reset" and "save". No other buttons are displayed. It is my understanding there should be functions listed, and I should press each that I want to program before pressing the buttons on my steering wheel. Is there something trivial I am missing?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Is your car CAN Bus ? Does it have resistive or CAN Bus SWC ? Did a CAN Bus decoder come with the unit ?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] pcbroch:
Thanks for the reply [MENTION=456516]typos1[/MENTION]

I figured it out after much tinkering. The car is apparently CANBUS. I had to select the proper CANBUS protocol from the "126" factory settings menus. The issue was that I wasn't resetting my ASWC-1 after choosing a new protocol. Changing protocol on the radio apparently changes the type of radio the ASWC-1 detects, hence the need to reset the ASWC-1 and re-detect the radio.

In the end it was a lot of tinkering just to be able to change volume and skip songs from the steering wheel! I mean it's not like the radio is very far ;)

Now I'm debating wether it's worth hanging myself upside down to get to the bluetooth wire in the glove-box to be able to use the phone control buttons as well.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
So you bought a universal unit without a CAN Bus decoder then ? Its pretty useful to be able to control stuff without taking your hands off the wheel. Dont get what you mean about the BT wire ?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] pcbroch:
I'm not sure. The radio has Key1 and Key2 wires, but there is no documentation about what they expect to be connected to. The ASWC-1 is a unit that is supposed to take the car control signals and convert them to something compatible with the radio. It may very well be that I didn't need the ASWC-1 if I had found the proper setting on the Radio, but there's more than a 100 possible settings. I'm happy to leave it like that now that it works!

The ASWC-1 supports the phone bluetooth controls (dial, on hook and off hook) on the steering wheel as well, but they feed from a different wire that is not available on the factory radio harness. I need to access it from a location above the glove box that is really hard to reach.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
All radios have key 1 & 2. I know what the ASWC is, but, unless you bought a universal unit you shouldnt have needed it because the CAN Bus decoder that came with the unit should automatically set up SWC including the phone controls. Have you got a picture of your unit and did it come with a CAN Bus decoder ?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] pcbroch:
I have no idea if it has a decoder or not. It's hard to get info for these units even from the seller. They told me to "connect the wires to the car"... LOL

Here is the unit I have:

http://www.ebay.ca/itm/7-Android-7-...ereo-radio-GPS-Navi-BT-Quad-core/332309827569
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Right, I see, its a universal unit, thats why it didnt come with a decoder, but you can probably buy one which would make all the SWC functions work.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] pcbroch:
Would it be much different from the ASWC-1 I have now? Do you have a link to an example decoder?

Thanks!
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
No, go through all the CAN Bus options in factory settings and check out all the Honda ones that may be relevant, (you can also arrange by manufacturer), then search Aliexpress for CAN Bus decoders for 2012 Civics made by the listed manufacturers (Raise, Union etc).
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] AppleSmasher79:
Hey guys I have a question regarding sort of the same issue. Mine did come with the decoder box also and all the the wires were plug and play. My issue is my back up camera isn't working and my steering controls aren't either. I connected my main OEM harness into the one that came with the unit and then that one into the new unit. There are two other wires on the same harness that I don't know where they plug into. The harness itself is T shaped, I'm assuming it connects to the steering controls somehow but idk...installed in a 2014 CTS....
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Have you attached the reversing cam trigger wire on the back f the head unit to the reversing light ?

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] AppleSmasher79:
I have tried changing the car type in settings from LL and LH fory vehicle but that didn't work. I hooked up every wire available. It was all plug and play. I'm not sure how to attach what you mentioned I'm just trying to figure out where that other part of the harness attaches to. I tried uploading a pic but I didn't have permission?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
The reverse wire is standard for all car head units Android or not, you have a wire on each end of the video RCA lead and one goes to the reversing light and the other to the wire marked "reverse" (or "back", "backsight" if its in Chinglish!) on the head unit, this is how the head unit knows that the car is in reverse.

Sorry, dont understand what this bit means : "from LL and LH fory vehicle".
