More of a technical/dev question, I notice when I go to WiFi settings it'll take a while to connect then I can ping things from adb shell but when I'm not on that screen I cannot ping things... does anyone know what exactly is triggered to connect to the WiFi? Or if I can use the existing...

Hey guys, The default Chinese ROM does not come with WebView & if you tried to add a Google account with opengapps the whole thing would crash so you couldn't get very far. I thought Nubia was being deliberately difficult with getting Google onto the stock ROM but it turns out if you installed...

Just wondering if anyone is working with the Chinese for this phone? They seem to be putting out some interesting ROM's... I'm wondering if they're safe? :confused: http://bbs.nubia.cn/forum-737-1.html Managed to find a CM13 on there that actually works with Mobile Data for China...

Hi All, So I have a strange problem, I applied for the official unlock via Xiaomi, then ended up getting a replacement phone because the audio jack wasn't working. I thought I would try to unlock the replacement (same phone, Xiaomi Redmi 3 Snapdragon) - the unlock works however it appears to...

Not sure if it has a better name, on the phone itself it seems to just be an "Oppo" as the model and trying to find the model from the IMEI is leading me nowhere. It doesn't look quite like a Find 5... So does anyone have any idea where I can get a factory image for this thing? Tried to restore...

So I seem to have done something wrong when trying to root - usually something will come up asking if I want to allow an app root access - at the moment that doesn't happen, instead it will just automatically give root to every tom, **** and harry (every app that wants it, basically) I'm...

I noticed a lot of threads mention needing an SD card, I'm trying to get MIUI onto my old phone (the official stable one, even if it is old) - I'm looking at some instructions here: http://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/miui-i9000-installation-guide-updated-03-02-12.10984/ That say: 4. Place the...

TLDR: Need a stock image, root and custom recovery for the Lenovo A390T Hi All, So my Chinese friend brought me her mothers phone to try and fix. As far as I can gather, she tried to update, got impatient and rebooted it. It just permanently hangs on an "Updating..." screen. First thing I...

Hi All, I'm slightly confused and I was hoping someone could help. My phone is European with SuperCID, so I'm guessing I can install any RUU from the EU that has stock lollipop and it will work? An RUU will flash my entire phone back to stock right, including recovery? My vars from fast boot...

Not quite sure exactly what's happening, but it's repeatable and noticeable and for anyone less-tech savvy might convince them they're bricked. It seems to be when a zip comes with an installer (such as Android Revolution) - once the install starts it's fine as long as I touch the screen every...

Hi All, I'm looking for something with a false login so that if a theif or passerby types "1234" it will let them in under a clean profile. I have cerburus installed and figure it won't be much good if a theif comes up against the login panel and can't get in. In the event of my phone being...

Hi All, I've attached a screenshot of the battery settings, my screen-on-time at this point was 1h48m - it seems to not be able to calibrate at all and drops and rises as it feels. I unplugged my phone this morning when the alarm went off and snoozed myself for a few hours, the phone was off...

Hi, I've been playing with the fast charge option in a few custom kernels I've used. I understand that it disables the data part of the connection so that it can charge at full speed in a USB hub that is attached to another device. Some people say that it also speeds up outlet charging for...

Hi, I've noticed a lot of people getting stuck with the ROMs and I've had a few PMs about a post I made a while ago. I'd like to start by saying most ROMs are for the S5830 only, not the S5830i - if you try with an incompatible ROM you will get the dreaded boot loop. The solution to these boot...

I find the virtual buttons a bit of a nuisance, I would much rather use gestures. I originally wanted to hide them only on my home screen, but it seems it's all or nothing with qemu.hw.mainkeys in build.prop. I'm fine getting rid of them, however I'm wondering if there is a gesture system I can...

Hey All, Quite a simple question but I can't seem to find a decent answer for it. Let's say I have a button on one xaml page and want to pass some parameters through to the next page. So I build a button that goes to another view with a parameter, say the Uri is "/Views/TwitterPage.xaml?id=1"...

Hey All, I went to sleep last night with my power at around 50% and woke up this morning and it had dropped to around 11% which seems absolutely huge to me considering I wasn't doing anything with it. So I went to settings->battery to have a look and I now see "Android OS" taking up 31% and...

Hey All, I have Nova Launcher installed on my Nexus 10 (4.2.2) and I've just got my home screen looking the way I want it with a few widgets, I like informational widgets on my center screen (weather, clock, email etc) social stuff (facebook etc) on my left screen and my apps on the right...

hey guys, is there an ssh app for the nexus 10? I've tried a few from the play store, namely connectssh and server auditor but the text is tiny compared to the rest for some reason?
