35096 | Exchange e-mails deleted from Samsung Galaxy S III when downloaded on computer | When I have Microsoft Outlook running on my computer, exchange emails are self deleting on my Samsung Galaxy S III.

55166 | No boot after installing AOKP | Today I installed AOKP on my Samsung Galaxy S2 according to this tutorial. While trying to install I got following error: Installing Update: assert failed: get prop("ro.product.device") == "d2att" || getgroup("ro.build.product") == 'd2att E:Error in /sdcard/"AOKP Release File" (Status 7) Instalation aborted. I modified the updater-script according to this link. The installation was completed succesfully, but after booting the system for the first time, I turned off the power after ~15 minutes (See in the tutorial, the author mentions that one should proceed like this if it takes too long. According to him it shouldn't take longer than 5 minutes). Now I'm trying to boot the system, but everything I get is the Samsung welcome screen with the yellow triangle. I can't even access the boot menu with 'volume up' - 'home' - 'start'. What should I do now? |
55167 | Android 4.1 tablet Model M736 not recognizing keyboard when connected through 4 port usb hub | I am having a Belkin 4 port USB hub and an Android 4.1 tablet Model M736 made by Kocaso. I am trying to connect USB keyboard and a USB WiFi dongle to the hub and not able to see either of the devicces. Tried only the keyboard connected to the hub yet not able to recognize that a keyboard exists. But individually the devices work when connected directly to tablet. Could it be that the USB hub isnot able to support enough power when connected to the tablet. Any suggestions |
28199 | Certain Wi-Fi network not available on Motorola Milestone with Cyanogenmod | I have a Motorola Milestone with Cyanogenmod 7.2.0. Phone is working without any problems. I was using this phone with my own Wi-Fi network. Something happened, and after that I'm not able to connect to Wi-Fi. The Wi-Fi router should be fine (we use it with another Android phone and two notebooks without any problem). I made factory reset that didn't solve the problem (after factory reset, I started to use it with different account, so it didn't restore the Wi-Fi settings). The phone is able to search for Wi-Fi hotspots (it finds a neighbor's Wi-Fi), but it doesn't list my own Wi-Fi network. I can't figure out the reason, I think it is not hardware related. Maybe I disabled to connect to this Wi-Fi accidentally, I don't know. Is there a way to check the setting for a certain Wi-Fi, or at least can I reset full Wi-Fi settings? |
55162 | why is galaxy s4 switching to silent at night | My s4 switches ALL sounds off at night. Alarms, ringtones ,you name it. Trawled the Internet for an answer but no satisfaction yet. When I go to turn them back on it won't let me. I've to restart the phone to get them back. I've downloaded apps in an attempt to sort it out but that didn't work either. Anyone had this problem? Anyone any suggestions? Can't find any "night setting" on phone either. Any help would be greatly appreciated. ..... |
28191 | If I install something from Google Play, can I be sure it can uninstall itself? | So recently bought an Android tablet, having first had an iPhone. So with Apple's strategy, apps seem quite restricted. They can really only do a couple of minor things outside of the app (like notifications etc.) and they're also reviewed by Apple. Android seems to allow a lot more freedom. You have apps that change the keyboard, or change the start up screen or allow you to share across apps etc. So my question is... if I install something from Play Store, do I know that it will always uninstall properly? Do app developers actually need to write an uninstall program or is this done automatically in the OS? |
55169 | Unable to connect to network after factory reset | Today I did a factory reset on my phone (Galaxy y GT-S5360T) to attempt to free up some space (it worked, thankfully) and now I can't seem to connect to any wifi network. I am currently running the stock ROM which is Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread and I am also rooted. I also noticed after the reset the Google Play store had been replaced by the Android Market. I don't have anything against the Android Market, but I do prefer Google Play. Does anyone know how to fix these problems? Thanks in advance Edit: When my phone tries to connect to a wifi network, the status reports that it is 'Obtaining IP Address" and it just ends there. Nothing else happens. I have heard in more than one place that I can create a static IP address and that will fix the problem but I have no idea how I can do this. It would be much appreciated if someone could point me towards a tutorial on how to do this, as I have no idea. I have also tried a factory reset again again and this still did not fix the problem. |
79498 | How some android phone supports 4k video capture and playback while some pc doesn't.? | I just heard of the Snapdragon 805 specs and i was astonished to see that it supports 4K Video capture and playback, then came to know that some Sony Smartphones already supports 4K Video capture and playback and it has it the market already. My PC, an Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 with 6GB DDR3 RAM and an NVIDIA 9500GT 1GB DDR2 doesn't support 4K Video playback (captured in RED). Does it mean that those Smartphones that does support 4K Video playback is actually faster and more efficient than my PC if not, how do they do that.? |

35699 | What's up with the 4.2 file structure? | > **Possible Duplicate:** > Why did /sdcard/ turn into /sdcard/0/ with 4.2? I'm just really confused about the file structure of the sdcard on the root of the sdcard theres the regular symlink of /sdcard to the actual internal sdcard folder, but heres where it gets weird in the /storage folder theres a symlink from /storage/sdcard0 (the normal sdcard folder) to /storage/emulated/legacy, which i guess is the folder that everything was moved to when i updated to cm10.1, but there is also a /storage/emulated/0 folder, which was the automatic backup of my sdcard when i updated to 10.1, but it stays in sync with the /storage/emulated/legacy folder also in /data/media there are /data/media/0 and /data/media/legacy folders (not symlinks, as far as i can tell) and /mnt/shell has the same folders, /mnt/shell/legacy and /mnt/shell/0 (once again, not symlinks) any idea which folders i can delete? is there any way to return to the old file structure where the sdcard was just at /storage/sdcard0? |

55295 | Can Scrap Booker be replaced with Evernote in Air Command on Galaxy Note 3? | > Scrap Booker – save anything you encounter – such as websites, maps, and > pictures – into organized scrapbook categories with accompanied notes and > information for later browsing. (from Phandroid Galaxy Note 3 review). What makes this special is that it's quick accessibility from Air Command menu that is activated via S-Pen. But functionality wise, this seems like an equivalent of (or subset of) Evernote. On one hand, as an Evernote user, I'd love to NOT have to have parts of my data in a separate scrapbooking application. On the other, Air Command menu and S-Pen integration is a big win. As such: Is there any way to integrate Evernote with this scrapbooking functionality in Note 3? I'm fine with any solution (e.g. full on replacement by Evernote, or even something as simple as a way to import 100% of my current Scrap Booker data into Evernote). |

22263 | How can I add an icon to the MIUI home screen? | I just got a Nexus One, which uses the MIUI interface. It came with two different gallery apps. I prefer the `cooliris` app, but there's no icon for it on the home screen, which makes it difficult to access. I can't seem to figure out how to add an icon.

27377 | Problems rooting Samsung Galaxy S: SuperOneClick stops responding at step 7 | I am having an awful time trying to update my new Galaxy S to ICS. I found a well rated ROM .zip on code.google.com but first I need to root the phone so I can unlock the bootloader. I have been googling all week and read lots of posts saying SuperOneClick is the way to go, but it keeps freezing. It gets to step 7 and stops. There are many threads out there where people say they have the same problem as me, but there is no answer to these posts, or the response is 'well it worked for me', which isn't much help. I also thought of giving Odin a go, but I do not believe my ROM is compatable (doesn't have PDA, CSC etc. elements to select). There must be something I'm missing or the tutorials I've read have left out. Or something else stopping SuperOneClick from finishing it's task. I get no error messages during the rooting process. SuperOneClick just plain stops responding. * Samsung Galaxy S i9000 * Android Gingerbread 2.3.6 * Bootloader 3e * ROM ICS_4.0.3_MR1-RC4.2_I9000.zip from code.google.com (http://code.google.com/p/ice-cream-sandwich-sgs/) * SuperOneClick version 2.3.3 |

25280 | Adding (lots of) icons to home screen on ICS tablet | I just upgraded my Galaxy Tab 10.1 from Samsung's 3.2 variation to CyanogenMod's ICS RC1. Most everything seems a little slicker or simpler. However, there is one big shortcoming: it seems impossible to efficiently add multiple icons to the home screen. From home, I have to hit the "apps" button in the top-right, find the app icon, long-press it, then drag it to the right place. And repeat. On the 3.2 ROM, I could just drag icons onto "mini" homescreens on the top half of the app list page. (Is this a feature of Samsung's TouchWiz and not part of default Honeycomb?) I've restored all my apps, so they're installed, but none are on the rather barren homescreen. I had them somewhat organized across the 5 pages under 3.2, and I'd like to get that organization back. Am I missing something in the CM/ICS UI that makes this easier? Are there 3rd party apps that make this easier? (Is the ICS homescreen the default, or specific to Cyanogenmod?) Are the config files editable? |
36250 | How to backup&restore Android device? | i have a new Nexus 4 (i.e. Jellybean 4.2.1), and i want to backup my current Nexus 4 and restore it onto the new Nexus 4. How can i do that? * * * i've tried going into **Settings** -> **Backup & reset** -> **Back up my data** to ensure my phone is backed up. When the new device is first setup it automatically tries to restore settings from Google's Servers:  Screenshot (click image to enlarge) Except that not everything was restored. Amongst the things that are not restored are: * applications are not restored (a new version is downloaded from the store) * application settings are not restored * pictures, videos, camera, videos, saved files are not restored * ~~wallaper is not restored~~ * unlock pattern is not restored * preferences are not restored * icon layout is not restored * **Messaging** conversations are not restored * **Talk** conversation history is not restored * recent calls are not restored * custom ringtones are not restored * custom notification sounds are not restored * * * i've tried downloading an application called **App Backup & Restore**. But because there is no external storage on the Nexus 4, there is no way to copy the backup off the phone. Also, **App Backup & Restore** cannot backup app settings for me. From the web-site: > Notice: App Backup cannot backup data or settings of apps for you Neither can **Quick Backup**. * * * So my question remains: > How can i backup and restore my Nexus 4? **Note** : i have no interest in _rooting_ my phone, as that is now a criminal offense in Canada. And even if it weren't illegal; i'd still prefer the option that doesn't void the warrantee, risk voiding the warrantee, is irreversible, has the possibility of being irreversible, or changing the phone away from the original, stock, intended version of Google's own Jellybean. |

55837 | Phone unlocking ideas | My wife's nexus 4 has a dead area across the middle of the screen. There's a 1 cm strip running horizontally across the screen that doesn't register clicks. A few weeks ago, her screen broke. We had it repaired, then two weeks after that the dead area emerged. (The technicians will not fix the issue, I've tried that). The dead area covers digits that are in her pin. On a nexus 4 the lock screen is only in portrait mode, so I can't access the dead area by turning the phone. The dead area doesn't cover the on screen keyboard, so if I can get to that I think I can unlock the phone. What I have tried to fix the issue: 1. punch in a bunch of invalid pins hoping that the phone would become locked and we could unlock it using the associated account with the on screen keyboard. I've tried probably 50 times but the phone hasn't stopped offering PIN authentication yet. 2. Using the android device manager, lock the device. The problem here is that I lent her my phone in the interim and it locked my phone. We unlocked that and removed her account but the android device manager still isn't locking the right phone. This is kind of weird because she never set my phone up to allow the remote control, I did that with my account. Somehow the phone or google's server must be confused. Two Nexus 4s in the same room is a problem apparently. 3. If you go to the camera, you can get the phone to go into landscape mode. Take a picture, then view the gallery. Anything from before your taking pictures while the camera was locked is hidden, and a lock shows. Tap the lock, and you are taken to a lock screen in portrait mode. But before you can key in any digits, it flips you back to portait. The phone was never in USB debug mode, and I can't connect to it via USB while it is locked. Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this? |
55834 | What exact time do Android devices execute the Daylight Saving Changes? | I believe the Windows OS in general makes the Fall DST change at 3.00am on the last Sunday of October, and the Spring change at 2.00am on the last Sunday of March.

32017 | Hide Superuser? | There are many apps out there that will hide your root su file and this seems to work well enough, but none of them are capable of hiding the Superuser application, not even 'Hide My Root' which claims it can do it but actually it doesn't do anything (Galaxy Nexus JB4.1.1., Superuser 3.1.1). Is there any way I could hide the Superuser app in such a manner that I could bring it back easily with an app rather than having to re-root my phone and re-mount/restore or just re-install the app itself? My motives are not nefarious, actually I just want to get email on my phone but our 'Good' policy blocks rooted phones and once it sees Superuser it bails. This conflicts with the many tools I need available to me which require root access. I've tried putting Superuser into Ghost mode but this does little other than remove it from the launcher. I've tried SuperSU as an alternative to Superuser and Good still recognizes that. Maybe if there were some other lesser known Superuser app that might work but I haven't been able to find one yet. |

32014 | Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 (GT P1000 with 2.2version android) stuck in boot-loop on update to CM10 | I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 (GT P 1000) with Android 2.2. A couple of days ago, I decided to update my Tab to JellyBean, and I searched the web for its procedure I found a HowTo at AndroidAuthority. After downloading the files and placing them on the internal SD, I followed its procedure about the recovery mode. My tab started to update but in the middle of upgrading it stopped and restarted. After that, my tab continuously follows this trend 1. Booting 2. Loading the OS 3. Rebooting 4. Go to 1! I could not even return its OS to is previous state! **I could not even go to the Recovery mode to do something.** Someone told me that each phone has a ROM or something like downgrading thing which I should download it and follow another procedure. I think I should do something like formatting and reinstalling a fresh, brand new Android OS on it like the procedure when we want to install a new Windows OS on our PC. Does anybody by any chance know what should I do? |

If I sort things out and backup the settings and desktop config, reboot and then restore the settings/config this does not cure the problem. If I add a new app, its icon will appear where put after a reboot, but it's as if a subset of old icons have been remembered somewhere or a config file has become read only.

57473 | android rooting and security | I read here that the way to become "root" in an Android device(Galaxy S3) is to use **Rooting**. However it has been said that if we do that, even normal applications will be running with root privilege. Is that the case ? For anyone with a Unix background, I am sure that allowing all applications to run as root is quite odd and dangerous. So my question is, isn't there the concept of **Users** as we have it on a *nix system ? For eg: in a normal operation as what user the Android apps run ? (we are not logging in as we do on a *nix system, so is there a default user ?). Also, is there no way to restrict or to run apps without root privilege ? Since I am a Linux/Unix guy, I would really like to get the command line. That is why I want to do the **Rooting**. However, I dont' want to make my mobile phone that loose and make it a Virus system like Windows. |

I want to change the font to something I'm sure is more reliable, but I'm unsure that I can change just the Japanese, and impact all fonts. I have looked into font changing apps, but I'm a little nervous as there are a lot of comments suggesting the potential to brick the phone. So I want to proceed carefully. I don't really know how font handling works, especially with an Android device, so is it possible for me to change the font for just the Japanese text? |

Most of the users are not too bright and can't copy from the attachment and then navigate to the correct folder and then paste the file in.

But it works perfectly and is genuine. A colleague there bought one from the same source the next day, and his arrived a day after mine. I then moved to Canada, and got a Rogers sim card. All good. However, my ex-colleague got a 4.0.4 upgrade about 8 weeks before myself. I tried forcing an update, but no luck. Then last week, I finally got 4.0.4, and about the same day, my old colleague emailed to say he got an OTA update to 4.1. What gives? Is it a geo-fenced roll-out? How can I force an update? (I've gone to system updates to check for an update, but no luck). Or would I have to root and do it manually? I'd prefer not to if there's a simple way to force an update...

3519 | How can I remove 'Orange' apps? | I have a bunch of complete crap apps on my phone which I can't move to the SD card, so they are taking up about 10mb of space on my phone, which is irritating when I want to update my phone as I need 25mb, so have to delete loads of apps. I was considering rooting my phone, but this apparently doesn't allow you to delete them. So how do I go about this? I don't want to run a custom rom and am happy to stick with HTC's regular firmware, but I want to 'unbrand' my phone. Any ideas please? |
75059 | Updates are not showing on Play Store | I read in news that a new Google Search update is rolling out (version 3.5.14). When I checked on the Play Store it was not showing the update, although update date was listed as June 26th and the "What's New" was also the same as the previous version. Why is the update not showing? Is it because it takes time to reach every country, like Android OS updates? Google Play Services is also not showing the update which was released on 27-28th of June. |

75057 | What app is activating all of my apps in turn? | Something on my phone is repeatedly cycling through all (or most) applications. Several times a day, it activates an app for a couple seconds, then moves on to the next app. It will continue doing this for many apps (maybe all of them) and it will repeat apps. Eventually it stops, but it will start again later in the day. I notice the behavior because the rest of the phone, including the dialer, crawls to a halt. If I look at Apps -> Running I see the cycling app at the top. The screenshot shows that the cycle is currently on Facebook - an app that I have literally never used on my phone. It will cycle next to YouTube, Slacker, etc. How can I figure out what's doing this, and how do I make it stop?  I've tried the following with no effect: * Repeatedly killing all Google Play services or processes that might be checking for updates. * Ensure that some of the activated apps are fully updated. They still appear in the running apps cycling. * Disabling Google Settings -> Verify Apps * All antennas and GPS on/off. HTC Thunderbolt with Verizon Android Version 4.0.4 Not rooted |
3515 | How to enable a HTC MyTouch 3G Slide USB tether in Windows 7? | I'm trying to use HTC MyTouch 3G Slide for USB tether instead of my old G1, which works perfectly. On the first try the ADB driver didn't recognize the phone, but worked fine after adding this to android_winusb.inf in both [Google.NTx86] and [Google.NTamd64]: ;T-Mobile MyTouch 3G Slide %SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0E03 %CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0E03&MI_01 However, when enabling USB tethering, the PID changes to 0E04, and my guess requires to be associated with Remote NDIS driver. So I've exported the Remote NDIS using Double Driver, and examined wceisvista.inf file. It says that compatible devices are: %WindowsCeDevice% = RNDIS.NT.5.1, USB\Class_E0&SubClass_01&Prot_03 While the actual device is: `USB\Class_02&SubClass_02&Prot_FF` I've already messed something up by adding the tether mode hardware Ids to the ADB driver.. so now it recognizes it as ADB driver.. Some more details, on the Slide I have cyanogenmod 6.1.0 installed (Froyo 2.2.1), and the PID changes only when using Wired Tether app (code.google.com/p/android-wired-tether). When switching USB Tether within built-in settings, the PID stays on 0E04. So maybe it is suppose to be associated with ADB driver... At this point my knowledge of windows drivers expires.. Anyone has any experience with this? Thanks! |
14625 | Is GSM telephony feasible on the Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9? | I'm looking to buy a small tablet to use as a "table phone" for use with a headset, and for video telephony. GSM telephony is a must - I don't want to rely entirely on Skype, or Internet connectivity in general. (Plus I'm eligible for a landline number on my mobile contract so people can call me from normal phones for free, which is great.) I am hovering between the 7" P1000 Samsung Galaxy Tab and the more expensive, newer 8.9" one. The 7" one officially supports GSM telephony. Various tests remarked that it's a bit too chunky for use as a normal mobile phone but for my use case on the desk, that doesn't matter. I really just want something I can carry around in a bag, and put on my desk to make calls with. The 8.9" one supports GSM telephony, but doesn't come with it activated out of the box. You need third party Android products in order to use it. This strikes me as odd, and makes me expect problems - why else would one build in the functionality, but not ship with it enabled? Telephony is the one thing I really, really need to just _work_ \- I can't afford to deal with dropping connections, bad voice quality, patches, and an overall "beta" experience. Is telephony feasible on an 8.9" Samsung Galaxy Tab? |

Can anyone provide a simple step-by-step? Thank you kindly! |

71530 | 'Insufficient storage' when installing Google play services | Before you hit reply or scream duplicate - read through what I've done. The phone is a rooted HTC One X running 4.2.2 and ViperX custom ROM with 836 MB free space on 'app' storage and 6.6 GB free space on phone storage (which has 32 GB total). If you didn't already know, the phone has no microSD slot. 1. Already seen this answer, and it does not apply. My `/cache` directory has 314M free space available. 2. Already deleted `/data/app-lib/com.google.app.vending`. 3. Went to app settings for Google Play Services, hit 'clear cache'. 4. Emptied app and Dalvik caches, rebooted. 5.

71532 | Why might an app not auto-update, despite not requiring any new permissions? | I have an app installed from the Google Play Store with "Auto-update" enabled. Normally such apps update silently, with a notification when it's complete. Such apps usually only prompt me when they require new permissions. However, I have just had an upgrade prompt for such an app, and the notification says: (App name) does not require any additional permissions. Why might it not have just updated silently? |
38644 | App2SD doesn't work - I don't even have the option | So I got a Verizon Samsung Stellar (it has Android 4.0.2) a few days ago. All's going well, but I don't have the option to transfer an app to my sd card. However, I can move files etc with a file manager, so the phone recognizes the SD card is there. On my old phone (an ancient MyTouch 4G, it was 2.3.4) there was a button in the Application Manager to move an app to the SD card. If the app didn't have App2SD supported it would be grayed out. I called Verizon to see why I don't have this option on my newer phone (you think that with a 1GB internal hard drive and an _included_ SD card they would support moving apps to your SD) and the person said that I just hold down the app name and a bar would come up with options. Holding down an app did nothing, no quick vibrations like when you move an icon on your home screen, etc. I've looked and about 80% of apps I have support App2SD so it's not that. How do I fix this? My phone is already full. |
38646 | Flash Nexus 7 without USB Debugging | My Nexus 7 32gb WiFi, running stock 4.2.1, is stuck on the Nexus 'X' symbol loading screen after boot. It stays there until the battery goes flat. The issue is that I have not enabled developer or debugging mode, meaning that I cannot connect to the PC via the adb. Is there another way that I can flash a new ROM? Apologies if this is a question answered elsewhere, but all recovery methods that I have discovered so far require 'USB Debugging', which I currently do not have access to. |
38640 | Can I boot into other OS (such as Ubuntu) from an Android OS tablet that have a USB host? | I have the following scenario: A user have a Android OS tablet that have Android 4.0 The tablet have a full USB port (not the mini USB port) The user have a thumbdrive that have a `boot from USB` version Ubuntu.

38643 | how does auto brightness work? | there is a similar question to this one How does the automatic brightness settings work? however, I do not think it answers my question. This is more to do with the UI. I just got myself a Galaxy s3. The phone has under the notifications the ability to change the brightness.  As can be seen from the screenshot, I can both adjust the brightness manually and select auto. Adjusting the brightness manually does visually affect the brightness of the screen even when the autobrightness is checked. So what does the manual adjuster do when auto-brightness is turned on? |
30410 | How can I get the location to update again in my News and Weather widget? | On my Galaxy Nexus running stock Jellybean 4.1.1 the News & Weather widget thinks I'm in Hong Kong airport, and has for the last week.  I have been to Hong Kong airport 3 times in the last month (it's a hub airport for Australasia) but never stayed there for longer than 3 hours. I'm currently in London, and have been either here or elsewhere in England for the last 7 days. If I tap the widget and tap the refresh icon (circled-arrows) it does show the correct location until the next auto-refresh interval (I have it set for 6 hours) when it will switch back to "Chek Lap Kok Airport" in Hong Kong again. Following the instructions in this previous question News & Weather Widget Not Updating I have deleted the widget from my home screen, done a Clear Data and Clear Cache on the News & Weather app in the applications listing, and then re-added to my home screen. This sorted it out initially, and then 6 hours later it switched back to Hong Kong again. I have all of the Location Services in the Android settings enabled, Google Maps shows me in the correct location whether I'm outdoors (on GPS) or indoors (using network location). I leave Wifi switched on for most of the day, and this happens during the day at work when I'm using mobile data, and overnight at home when I'm connected to my wifi. |

30419 | Have I completely lost my IMEI? | I'm stuck with the generic IMEI (004999010640000).

I was actually missing files in my /efs folder before flashing stock, but even with the full /efs folder I can't find my actual IMEI. So am I screwed? |
30418 | USB connection broken, tried debugging | I have a Galaxy S2 that refuses to be picked up by any computer. I tried different operating systems, I tried a different USB cable, I tried debugging mode. The phone still charges fine through the port but maybe the data section of it is broken. Before I take it in for repair I just want to hear if there's anything else that can be tried? I'm thinking of doing a hard reset but don't want to lose any data. Any advice would be appreciated. |
33851 | Alarm Settings on Samsung Galaxy S3 | Since updating to Jelly Bean, I can no longer change the settings of my alarms on my S3 i.e snooze (time in between, length), activate smart alarm, change the alarm tone etc... When I click more, it just lets me change the volume. Can anyone help? |
33855 | Add system apps in a custom rom | I'm trying to change a few some system apps in an already working custom rom (Lewa Os - CM7 derived) and my device is an Acer Liquid Metal) Lewa Os is a chinese rom that I've translated thanks to the help of other guys in the forum to Italian. So I want to repack the rom with all the new Italian files (framework-res.apk, phone.apk and so on). I've used xda's kitchen (http://forum.xda- developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246) and following all the simple wizard (I didn't modify a thing) I simply added with copy and paste the new apks in the folder and cooked the rom.

33856 | External battery case for Galaxy Nexus LTE with extended battery | I have a Samsung Galaxy Nexus LTE with the Samsung 2100 mAh extended battery. This is fine for my daily use, but when I travel by air I often run out of batteries. I have a Monoprice 2800 mAh battery backup pack which is convenient, when it works. Unfortunately sometimes it mysteriously doesn't work at all, and the flimsy connector means that keeping it connected to the phone is unreliable. I've seen some cases for iPhones that have an external battery that would solve these problems. Unfortunately, the only product I've seen like this has poor reviews. Are there other solutions? |
33858 | My new Nexus 7 doesn't allow me to receive apk files with bluetooth | I have just got a Nexus 7, and I am trying to send an app that i made into my Nexus, neither sending it with my phone using bluetooth or directly from my laptop using bluetooth works: on my phone it says "the file couldn't be sent" while on my laptop is says: "the request couldn't be honored".

How to make it stop? | This happens frequently enough to make me believe the unplugging has some influence on it, but it doesn't happen all the time, so I'm not quite sure... I can think of two options to find out who's responsible: * Detect which apps/services are launching (not receiving!) the Voice Command intent; * Detect which apps/services can handle the Action Headset Plug intent, since that seems to be causing all the trouble; the idea being that once I find out who is screwing up, I can take the necessary steps to solve the issue.

For example, I would have no problem with going to grayscale, or 256-color mode, but this option is not available on the android client, as far as I can tell. Is there any way to optimize the bandwidth consumption of TeamViewer for Android, beyond choosing the Optimize Speed quality setting?
