skewing/cropping problem

I followed all the steps on my Note8 but the homescreen and app drawer appear skewed to the right a little bit like there's an empty space on the left of the icons while the far right column icons are cropped in half, any solution for that ??

Update: I found that this problem is caused by changing the Screen Zoom (in Display settings) to the Small setting. If I set it to normal or Large, then nothing is wrong,,, except that I've grown so used to having small screen items that even the normal setting looks huge now to me. If there is any fix to this, that would be much appreciated.

So I have noticed that the source code for Infinity Blade has become available to the public.

http://forum.ragezone.com/f857/release-infinityblade-source-code-dbs-983005/index2.html

I have downloaded this and played it in Windows through UE3 but is it possible to get this sorted to Android now that it's available ?

I'm not a programmer/coder myself so I'm not entirely sure what would stop us from doing this.

Thanks , let me know.
[Android General] DarkSki:
I am messing around with the included UE3 and I'm going to see if there is any way to create an app with this.

UE3 is definitely compatible with Android there must be a way to Port this.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] vok01:
Hi!

Recently i bought a Galaxy S8 "Duos" (SM-G950FD) in Mexico.

I bought it 'cause my job requires one sim card and my family uses another.

Today I received it in my house, but... when I started Samsung Pay app, a notification appear asking about download United Arab Emirates software.

And in 'phone information' where's the imei info and the nave of the device appears "United Arab Emirates"

This phone was bought in Walmart Marketplace or something line that, there's a way to chance the region of the smartphone?

How can i download Samsung Pay Mexico app or something to this region?

Thanks!
[LG Q6 Questions & Answers] nick_white:
When you rotate the phone in "reverse landscape" (the USB port and LG logo are on the left), is the navbar on the left, or on the right?

Also, does the Q6 have the option to hide the navbar ("Hide home touch buttons"), like in this article: https://www.phonearena.com/news/LG-V30-navbar-customization-how-to-hide-LG-V30-navbar_id97742 ?

I am asking because Google, in 7.1.1 made a change, that the navbar is now "fixed" on one "physical" side. This is great if you use the phone while lying in bed on the right side, because your left thumb would be able to reach the buttons (pre 7.1.1, it was the reverse). Unfortunately, some brands that heavily customize the UI (like Huawei) don't respect this change, so having a large (and long 18:9) screen + the buttons on the opposite side of the thumb is a big usability issue...
[LG Q6 Questions & Answers] GodRugal:
LG ui definitely keeps the navigation bar at the bottom (LG logo) of the screen no matter which way the phone is oriented from my testing of a few apps
[LG Q6 Questions & Answers] nick_white:
What about the "Hide home touch buttons" option? I downloaded the manual, but I didn't find any mention of it (maybe it was added in an update)?
[LG Q6 Questions & Answers] GodRugal:
no mention of hiding home buttons on the model i have been testing. (7.1.1 build NMF26X)
[One (M9+) General] rahbar6:
After upgrading the android version, now I can't switch back camera to front camera. Can anyone give me a solution?
[One (M9+) General] embexx:
This can happen if you install a firmware like CleanSlate or any m9pw firmware on a M9+ with different back camera module inside. Like M9+ supreme camera, or M9+ prime camera edition.

Flash correct firmware for you device and I should work as before.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] rfarnell:
My e-mail is currently sync'd to an Exchange 2003 server, which works beautifully apart from one thing. In my exchange rules I have certain rules set so that the e-mail is simply placed into a different folder. On my phone I have selected the subfolders that I want to also sync on the phone, but this is where my problems start.

When an e-mail comes into the subfolder, not only does it not alert me with any sound, it also does not display on the unread e-mails list so I have many a time missed an e-mail that I needed to see. The e-mail is visible as unread when expanding the outlook folder tree or entering the subfolder, but not anywhere useful.

Is there anything I can do to remedy this without having to resort to a massive collect all inbox?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] MirrorminD:
I asked the same thing when i got mine because i have many sub-folders and the outcome is no you cannot, suck i know. I did find though that SPB Diary does and will let you choose your subfolders and displays them on the today screen. My problem was though SPB Diary slowed my phone down but so far that is the only workaround I had found. Here is a link to SPB Diary.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Magica:
You can look at CheckMail application (http://www.magica.ro/pda_pocket_checkmail.php) which solves the problem of unread mails from subfolders.

This application monitor ActiveSync events and alert the user when there are unread mails in inbox and Subfolders.

You can test the application by downloading the demo version.

[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] Didusieq:
Hi All,

I have a strange issue with Nokia 8. NFC payments is not working correctly, as well as LTE+ services. It is fine for a few days after restoring the phone to its default settings, but stops after few reboots or days.

I believe it is not a hardware issue as it is fine after phone reset. NFC is still working fine as I tried to send a photo to other phone via NFC. Only issue is with payment. Tried with my bank app as well as Android Pay.

LTE+ works fine too for a few days, and stops working in the same time as NFC payments.

I can replicate it. It is the same every time after I reset the phone to its defaults.

Did someone face the same issue in the past?
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] Toedwarrior:
I get same thing with VoLTE it disables it after 1 day and i need to change my preferred network type between 3g and 4g to get it working again

As far as I have tested or seen, Any USB C Type OTG cable or connectors work with Z2 Plus.

Here is one such cheap connector I am using for connecting my USB pen / thumb drives.

Working is more depended on data partition of the drive. Some time some ROM finds it difficult detect NTFS. FAT32 works fine most of the time.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Ghisy:
Hi guys,

I've been using the AOSPUI black theme on my Nexus 6P and it worked fine on Nougat.

I now have a Pixel 2 XL on stock rooted Oreo 8.1. The same theme behaves in a weird way and some pop-up windows and the power menu have black on black text. I reached out to the dev and he says it should work properly but I can't seem to be able to make it work.

Now I'm looking for another black theme that works flawlessly on stock rooted. Found a few but need some advice, so would you get:

- Swift black,

- Pi Dark,

- Flux,

- something else?

I need a black theme where EVERYTHING works. Free themes are also welcome.

Thanks!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] BabelHuber:
Swift Black works for me very well. But the first time you install a theme, you can run into weird problems because the theme hasn't been updated for the newest version of the Google apps yet.

When I did a clean install last week, Swift Black wouldn't theme my Google app. An update a few days later fixed this.

So I disable automatic updates and wait for a Swift Black update after the apps which I have themed are updated. This way it alsways works with Swift Black.

But to theme GBoard, you need to read the FAQ (some manual steps are required).

Hope that helps.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
Domination is another outstanding black theme that gets updated regularly. Also, keep in mind that it's ok to use overlays from different themes on certain apps while your waiting for theme updates should your base theme not work on a particular app :good:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
Swift black FTW
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Str0ntium:
I use Swift Black for system UI and settings, Compound for phone. Swift Black leaves a huge blue frame on the dialer UI for me. Looks horrid.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Ghisy:
I don't theme Google apps actually. My problem is with the "Android system" overlay on my theme.

Like I said above, the only overlay that gives me trouble is the "Android system" one. If I activate it (black with Pixel accent colors), my pop-up windows are black on black and my power menu blue on blue, i.e. I can't see any text. It's odd, it worked well on Nougat.

Edit: I wonder if it's the automatic (and stupid) day/night mode from Oreo that's being a PITA? Because my current wallpaper is dark and it triggers the dark mode for some stuff. Why did Google add this and not a toggle to enable/disable it?!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Str0ntium:
I think the only elements that are affected by the wallpaper theme (auto dark/light mode) are quick settings and notification bar.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Ghisy:
It also themes the power menu, which is one of the areas that don't get themed properly. I also switched to a light wallpaper and all my QS were gone (probably black on black again)! Something is definitely fishy on Oreo :/
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Str0ntium:
I don't have the issue you describe using Swift Black for system.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] JoeNeckbone:
Same here, I'm 100% stock using swift black and couldn't be happier. No issues at all.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Ghisy:
I'm guessing Swift Black is the winner here!

About the power menu, it's actually the advanced power menu that isn't themed properly (the one added by Gravity Box through Xposed). And also random pop-up windows like when I'm connecting a Bluetooth device.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
I use Spectrum as my main theme. Domination is my second theme and is used to theme apps that Spectrum doesn't, such as XDA Labs. It also is used for the Google apps when Spectrum can't theme the app, though that can be hit or miss. For example, Photos cannot be changed to black by either theme at the moment.

Google seems to update their apps every other day, which gives the themers headaches. Of course, in Android P it may all end up being moot. :(
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] bkdodger:

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] JoeNeckbone:
After posting this I thought to myself, hope I didn't jinx myself....fast forward to now, 4 updates later to both substratum engine/swift black.... contacts and phone are not theming...I'm sure it'll be fixed soon but funny how that works. Anyone else having same problem?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Str0ntium:
Are you creating the modules then rebooting before applying? Since March update that's what you need to do. The modules will show up after rebooting.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Ghisy:
I'm creating the overlays using the "build & update" option then rebooting and applying them. If you don't reboot, they don't show up in the Substratum manager.

Right now, I'm waiting to get a payment from Rewards so I can buy one theme or two. We'll see.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] JoeNeckbone:
I disabled all overlays, rebooted, everything was stock theme. Did build and enable for swift black, rebooted, (twice) everything but contacts and phone is themed. Did this quickly this morning before work, maybe a error on my part. Will try again tonight.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Str0ntium:
I would delete the overlays before rebuilding them.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] raidflex:
On my Pixel 2 XL stock (Not Rooted) I still have to Build/Enable and then reboot and enable again. Does anyone else have this issue? I should not need to "Enable" overlays twice.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] JoeNeckbone:
Now that you mention it, I'm almost positive I did delete and not disable. Either way I'll check it out later, thanks for the advice.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] thereal_bigjake:
Google changed something starting with the March security patch that causes this. You need to build all the overlays, reboot then enable all the overlays via the Manager section in Substratum.

I use Dark Infusion as my main theme as I'm the dev for it ?. I use Domination for a few apps I don't theme and for the Google app cause I'm behind on that overlay.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] montajd:
Swift black for sure, love it
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] JoeNeckbone:
Tried again, got a error, sent log to devs.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Str0ntium:
That stinks. Have you tried deleting app data for Substratum and then re-adding the theme?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] JoeNeckbone:
Dev got back to me already, said next update will fix it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] raidflex:
I am receiving this error when applying the phone dialer overlay, anyone else experience this?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] JoeNeckbone:
Look at previous posts.....I submitted the error log to the dev and was told the next update will fix it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] raidflex:
Okay, thanks. Do we still need to remove and re-build all overlays when updating swift black or can I just install the phone dialer overlay after the update?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] JoeNeckbone:
I would remove and re build all overlays in case other changes were made.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] raidflex:
That is what I figured. Its just such a pita with all these updates to have to keep re-installing and rebooting on top of the need to connect the phone to a PC. Hell even if I could do it all on the phone it would be much better.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] BabelHuber:
Thanks! I'll skip this update of Swift Black and wait for the next.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] JoeNeckbone:
Update is out, dialer fixed.

Hi all, this is my first post so please show some leniency please :)

I have recently been given a Samsung S9+-256GB from my company in Korea and I went on a case hunt at the myeongdong area.

Found the classic transparent gel ones but they usually stick in the entrance of the pocket and usually will not slide all the way in unless you try.

So started looking for hard cases one of which (except the classic thin ones) had a secret "pocket" for cards and bus tickets.

Since in Korea moving with buses and trains is something I must do as I have not purchased a car yet and TMoney card (bus card) is swiped several times within a day it seemed only fair to go for that one.

Nice colors and easy to use but to be honest it looks a bit bulky after I requested the same guy to install a tempered glass as well.

In any case I am happy for now and will be definitely buying another one shortly, maybe with a cover.

Is your life a succession of repetitive tasks that run one after another and you fear forgetting one?

Do you have to make a cooking recipe and you're sick of having to generate a countdown in your clock app every time you start one of the subtasks?

I make my own bread at home and the first kneading is a task that lasts about 80 minutes: "knead for 5 minutes, wait 20 minutes for the time to act and the dough to take consistency and repeat up to 4 times"...

It is a very repetitive task and many times it has happened to me that I forgot to program the next timer.

To facilitate that kind of tasks and not forgetting me again, I decided to develop Countdown + and today I put it at your disposal...

With Countdown+ you can create all the countdowns you want and assign each of them an begin text, a done text, a runtime and an order of execution, so that they all run in sequence ...

In addition, from the task bar you can pause a countdown, assign more time and much more!

Please, report issues and request for additions here.

Thanks

I'm really a bit hallucinated, or rather sore.

After the review of XDA the app has been downloaded less than 200 times, which does not surprise me because it is not the type of app that most XDA users love, but the fact is that I received 5 ratings, 3 of them from 1 star apparently for privacy concerns.

Is it that nobody stops to think about the hours that must be dedicated to the development of an application?

Is it that nobody stops to think that the laws forces to indicate the use made of the data before the first use and that it is precisely the apps that are not indicating it by those that act badly?

Is it that nobody stops to think that sometimes generic statements are made but that it is not possible to access contacts, calendar, calls, etc. if explicit permission is not asked for it?

Does anyone really think?

Sorry for the roll, but it's all very frustrating!
