It was the default setting, i.e. average. HM ok good to know. It's happening quite often when listening to the Economist too. Which is really bull****, it should treat it as audio playing. Why would Android kill your music.

still this never happened on the Nexus 5, at least I can't remember

that's what shows up when I get the details of the RAM usage through settings

thanks for the suggestion. Well here's the top 5: Android operating system 524 MB Wechat 156 MB Firefox 117 MB System UI 105 MB Android system 99 MB Clearly it's mostly the system using all resources. Firefox and Wechat, sure, I find them rather essential to my life, but together they don't...

I can live with the Nexus 5X' relative sluggishness when compared to the Nexus 5, but what really stops me from doing my work is the phone killing apps when I switch between them. Example: I may be filling out a form on a website in Firefox for Android. I need to look up a word in the...

Got the Nexus 5X because not satisfied with the Mi4c's camera. God how I wish they made a merger of both phones. The size, battery life, speed of the 4c with the camera, the fingerprint reader, and the fast charge of the 5X. Because the 5X is really quite slow when multitasking, and battery...

xiaobai1122200 will you continue working on the CM build or are you now only developing Mokee?

No the last batch was with CM

So yesterday I had about 6 hours of screen on time, and it was off the mains from 8:30 am to 1 am, i.e. 14.5 hours. Three to four hours of 3G, half an hour of GPS tracking, and otherwise mainly chatting and browsing and using a few apps. This beat my every expectation, my previous phones would...

So I wonder why, for instance, I cannot install the Xiaomi Music app onto my Cyanogenmod. It says app not installed after I download it from the Mi Appstore. Is it missing a framework or something? Or does it just check whether it's in the MIUI environment and bails if it's not?

Does imx258 probe succeeded actually mean you have the sony sensor? Maybe it says a little further "samsung sensor probe succeeded".

Delete its cache and data

me too but it bothers me that the capacitive keys stay active

Interesting! But it didn't work: the keys are still active. There are plenty of other .kl (keyboard layout) files in that folder that could be the key, but I don't feel like messing with it too much. Any idea? Anyway it got me thinking, are edge control (you know, where you can tap the side of...

Not really because they stay active and missing a button will constantly give the opposite command. Maybe a future version of the app will allow you to really deactivate them. Dagnabbit :)

Here are some, as your see low light ones aren't very good and blurred. But even the sunlight ones are a little grainy and not perfectly crisp. Sony sensor.

How did you set soft keys up? CM didn't have it as an option for some reason (although it has been an option on other phones I had with hard keys). An can you then disable the hard keys?

Yup but can't find the file. I ran 'dmesg' from the terminal, then used 'find dmesg' to find the log, but it says no such file or directory. How is the dmesg.log generated, and then in what path is it located? ---------- Post added at 09:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:43 AM...

where is it?

Don't need LBE, I don't think much of the whole 'security' app thing on a phone. But would the Launcher bring back the dialler and the messaging? But then I can't use these apps if I decide to keep Catapult launcher?

I didn't do SuperSu though I doubt that would change anything. Maybe try it again. I also notice the problems with Bluetooth. I assume you also use the Mi band to unlock your phone? Works fine (but at a distance longer than with MIUI, which is annoying), but sometimes it completely stops...

agreed, it got significantly better with the CM rom. Still fairly noisy and a little blurry though. Looks like the camera app (I use Google Camera 4.0) actually takes its time to focus rather than attempting to deliver the quickest shot possible.

I installed TWRP, wiped, flashed the ROM. Rebooted, flashed Gapps, wiped again, rebooted. Someone said I shouldn't flash ROM and Gapps at the same time for fear of a bootloop. Doesn't make sense to me but I didn't take any risks

It's strange. I also installed that package and had multiple apps crash on me. But then I cleared the data for them (the Google Services Framework DATA and the Google Play Store CACHE, as well as the Clock), and they started working, it's as if they came with some data preinstalled... The only...

Is it possible to install MIUI original apps on Cyanogenmod or any other phone/OS? Living in China, backing up to the Mi Cloud is easier than to syncing with Google, as it does not require switching on the VPN and thus does not drain the battery waiting for a VPN connection and gets generally...

Sure, steadying the phone entirely will work. But that's not really a solution, as you often take a quick snap, the device is light and therefore in almost all situations your hand will be unsteady. It felt like the nexus5 was able to use shorter shutter times in low-light conditions and took...

These are all shot from the wrist with minimal effort at stabilizing, the way I used to snap pictures with my Nexus 5

Besides, works like a dream. Feels a bit more sluggish than on my old Nexus 5, but the flashlight works (at least in the camera) and everything else seems to work too. What a joy to have.

After purchasing the Mi4c and waiting for it for three weeks, I keenly unboxed it and started tweaking the living hell out of it. Among others I installed several Google apps, the google account manager (switch off sync in China as it will draaaain your battery), and MIUI 5.10.16 dev. So far so...

CM12.1 being available so quickly is amazing. 楼主多谢！ I was thinking of returning the mi4c because of substandard camera performance (in low-lit areas) and my ennui with MIUI7. But now that it has CM, maybe there's hope. How's the camera doing for you early birds? Another question, I did like...

Does looking for files make sense? Since the OS comes for phones with either sensor, it's likely to have drivers onboard for both devices, or am I wrong? The dmesg seems more sensible, but I'm not getting any useful info out of it.

I translated the new 2.1 PC client into English. You may be able to use this on a Mac too, but I don't own one so I cannot test. Download the patch from my blog http://www.worldofnonging.com/2014/04/tencent-weiyun-2-1-translation-available/

It says I cannot install the apk of Google search. "App isn't installed". Well bah.

This doesn't work for me. The default Android e-mail app just displays the code inline instead of rendering HTML. I also have a base64 encoded image in my signature.

Can you make an ART compatible version? This is all that keeps me from switching to ART.

now do quad core support/proper HDR camera support Thanks for releasing this mod. I accidentally pick up my Nexus 4 instead of my LG Optimus, they look exactly the same now :) Three things I'd like to see come to the LG mod: - proper HDR camera support. The original firmware takes a snapshot...

I managed to access the US Play Store from Mainland China. I have a LG Optimus G E975, Astrill VPN connection set to GLA2.ASTRILL.NET, and a German credit card attached to my Google account, which, according to Google Dashboard is also registered in Germany. 1 get root 2 install markethelper...

yes it does.

Ah thanks for that clarification. The Camera with Photosphere app does too, then? That was at any rate not the case on the SGS2. Anyway, I'm actually most interested in the VPN problem because I'm really in need of that right now since Marketaccess is no longer enough to get paid apps in China.

This didn't work for me. My one device was able to get the US store by connecting to a VPN, but me other device stubbornly shows the store available to users in China. Just SOL then?

It was necessary on the SGS2 was to flash gapps *after every CM nightly* to have Google Now working, now I have only flashed gapps the first time but never again with every nightly upgrade. I most definitely never flashed the Camera app which was necessary on my galaxy s2 to have the...

Can someone explain to me why I need to flash gapps? I didn't do this yet had all Google Apps available to me (GMail, Maps, Camera with photosphere etc...) On the other hand, what does not work is the creation of VPN connections through the VPN menu. Both L2TP/IPsec and PPTP connections will...

I mean LT2P/IPSec and PPTP, not OpenVPN, which has a separate app and has nothing to do with Cyanogenmod itself.

Thanks - before I go official, is it a well known bug that VPN (L2TP/IPsec and PPTP) do not work?

This stopped working now in February 2013... Anyone know what changed in the Play Store validation conditions?

Hm! Any ideas on making it work? Note, it works with words I've entered myself, but not dictionary-and-frequency-based. I see in settings there are extra dictionaries that can be installed but this seems to no avail. Also, when I look at that menu again, the dictionaries I had installed are now...

Anyone else have the problem that there is no next word prediction any more in the AOSP Keyboard?

I noticed there is no more next word prediction on my AOSP keyboard... Only the words I've already entered, but it used to come with pre-loaded word prediction data..!

No I mean the one that came with stock Cyanogenmod 10 on my Galaxy S2. It was just an option in the lockscreen settings to have a small weather widget on the lockscreen. It was simple and beautiful. Is the whole idea of 4.2 that I now download such widgets?

I don't agree. The app specifically tells you where to aim. If it takes a long time to process each picture (a bit over a second) and if the result is erroneously stitched together, then I am not to blame, but the app is. Or perhaps how the app works on this version of cm. Also, you can easily...
