Google Hangouts, Skype, etc. Use a lot of battery. So you plug in your charger, only to find that it does not charge because the battery is getting too hot. WTF?

Some kind of speed dial thingy? SIM card contact shortcut? Couldn't find any info on it. Doesn't happen to everyone though. Nexus 6 Rooted 6.0.1 crashes Nexus 5 Rooted 6.0.1 works Nexus 5 Stock 6.0.1 crashes Moto G 2014 Stock Works Dialed: 1# 01-04 16:55:25.720 16988 16988 E AndroidRuntime...

Hi guys, Searched all over the place, maybe I'm just not using the right terminology. I'm modding some CM stuff in framework/base/core, which means framework.jar has to be built. If I use: dopush mmm frameworks/base/ -j32 ART(?) needs to optimize all the apps again. This makes developing...

Yet another size poll... Let your voice be heard;)

Hi guys, Had an accident with my N5. Truns out it doesn't function that well after being sandwiched between a floor and a foot. Screen was broken. So I ordered a new screen complete with frame attached. Transplanted all the components and voila it worked! So I thought. After some inspection it...

Hi guys Had a huge WTF yesterday. A friend of mine who sat at a table in the bar where I work said "hey man you're calling me." My phone was laying behind the bar unplugged. I have a password set. I picked it up and it was indeed calling him for already 20 seconds. What the hell? I suspect my...

Hi guys, I have completely ditched Samsung after letting me down with the first Galaxy Note. They did not open source their drivers at the time of ICS. So the devs could not get project butter to run. So we were stuck with using Samsung roms if you wanted any buttery smoothness. It has been a...

Okay guys, I haven't posted anything on XDA for a long time. But my stupidity has led me to posting once again. My Nexus 5 was performing great. Loved it! No defects whatsoever. In these days it seems like you need to be a bit lucky when buying tech. It happens quite a lot that one buys a...

Hi guys, On a button click I am inflating a layout like so: public void plusLayout(View v) { // inflating layout here: LinearLayout ll1 = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.main_layout); // this layout is being inflated: View newView =...

Hi guys, This is my first app. I finished the initial version a while ago. But I completely forgot to post it here:p I work in a bar and we don't have a cash counting machine. So I developed an app to make counting easier. It automatically calculates the total amount of money you counted. You...

Hi guys, I decided that some things could be improved on the machine. Turned out that my new idea was a complete FAIL. So I wen't back to the drawingboard and this is what I came up with:) It uses much less parts (again). And it's way more compact. It's not that modular anymore, but who cares...

Hey guys, Thought I'd post this here and keep you guys updated on further developments. I live in the Netherlands and bought a 32GB version at Dixons at the 13th of November 2012 I had found the touchscreen a bit unresponsive sometimes in the past. But couldn't really find out why it was...

How big do you guys reccon the chances are that CyanogenMod comes to the Note II? CyanogenMod have said: either a new developer starts doing it, or Samsung comes to their senses and opens up to the community. They hate working with Exynos. And I can imagine, with no documentation. I really like...

I would like to start a thread where we can quote people asking for TW features in AOSP roms. If you are getting annoyed (like I am), maybe it will help us to put all our hatred in this thread.

Hi guys, I'm no expert in app developing. My question is: The S-Note/S-Memo app relies on the TW-Framework right? If you install the app without it, it will simply not work. But is it possible to somehow incorporate all the framework dependencies in the apk itself? Could it be made standalone...

Hi guys, Does anyone know how to enable/hack the AOSP style rotation lock for android 4.0.3 in the Samsung LPY 4.0.3 release? So that when you disable auto-rotate it stays on the orientation you're on. Right now it snaps back to portrait mode when you disable auto-rotate, just like on GB.:mad...

I'm running Midnote3 at the moment. My wireless keyboard and mouse are recognized through an OTG cable The wireless Xbox receiver is not though. It gets power and connects to the controller, but does nothing else. I've seen it working on honeycomb and ICS tablets. Surely it should work on the...

Hi guys, On an AOKP rom in Settings > Language & input > Android keyboard settings > Add-on dictionaries. I can choose to install a Dutch dictionary. It downloads something, and says "installed". However it doesn't do anything, the keyboard only auto-corrects words found in my contacts, so...

For the life of me, I can't get the Camera.apk to decompile. (I wan't to mod the battery percentages and maybe the shutter sound) Still refuses when I add twframework-res.apk. I'm using APK Multi-tools, but I'm doing something wrong. Can someone please point me in the right direction? Thanks in...

Dear admins/website developers, It would be a really nice feature to be able to rate a post. -1 off topic/offensive 0 off topic/irrelevant +1 on topic +2 on topic/informative +3 on topic/must read Something like that. They use it on the dutch website tweakers.net and it's really handy. By...

Hi guys, I have this strange problem, it even seems random. After I turn wifi off, my Note does not connect to 3g anymore. And I have to reboot the phone to get it working again. Does anyone experience the same problem, or knows a sollution? I rooted KK1 and flashed LA4 using Mobile Odin...

A reverse engineered, open-source, Mali-400 driver. Pretty cool, but don't expect to see it running on the Note soon. It would be nice to see more opensource drivers! Imagine if a new Android build's source comes out and a developer already has access to drivers for i.e the camera. I don't...

Hi guys, Does anyone know if the Monster Beats iSoniTalk cable will work with the Note. I owned a Galaxy S, and the cable did not work. The wiring in the SGS was different. The "answer call" button had to be pressed to get good audio. So I had to use the normal cable. Can anyone with an...

Hi guys, Would we be able to alter the Quick Setting menu in Sense 2.1 and create an extra setting for Auto Rotate? I'm sure it would be possible. If anyone has some idea on how to do it, please reply. I'm not very experienced with android. I'm just starting to learn. But I'm sure we could...

Hi guys, I checked out Virtuous Unity and quite like it. But I'm still leaning towards Android Revolution HD and Cyanogen. Now, Cyanogen is fantastic, but there are some minor issues as we all know. (For me the Camera isn't good enough.) So Android Revolution HD it is then. However... Sense...

Just tried my Beats By Dr Dre Studio headphones. The sound quality is already great, although you do get a little noise after you press the pause button. Or after a notification is played. This is probably due to Android's internal media player component which needs to get some kind of "stop...

Hi guys, I'm experiencing a very annoying touchscreen issue. Does anybody have the same problem? Please check out the video here. Scroll through to the 1:00 minute mark... I'm going to send it for repair anyway, does anyone know how long that will approximately take? Cheers, DaanJordaan

Hi guys, Just got my IS in the mail (on a saturday thank you tnt) Anybody noticed the extremely cool rotating buttons not working at the camera app. Its kind of stupid because the setting buttons of the app itself DO rotate:p Is it just me, or are you guys noticing the same thing? In all the...

hey guys, Simple enough really... Will the phone lay flat on it's back, or does the camera stick out a bit? Thanks, DaanJordaan

Hey guys, I'm seriously thinking about swiching to the Incredible S, but there are several things I'd like to find out. How is the gps? I own a Galaxy S atm and the gps is the worst ever. I've never had any such problems with my HTC devices, therefor the switch. The second question is a...

Hi guys, I'm on Doc 9.8.1 with a XWJS7 base. Does anyone know where I can turn off the annoying high pitched beeb you get on a outgoing call. I'm using the phone.apk with 2 way call recording by the way. Regards, DaanJordaan

I have searched everywhere but can't find anything, I would love to use the stock calendar app on doc's rom or any other rom for that matter. But i'm not able to find anything that works. Does anyone know if this is even possible? I've read that if you use the aosp mail app, the camera fc's...

After Froyo update "non standard" pictures don't preview anymore, same issue anyone? Hi guys, I have seen this, but it's a bit tucked away I think. After the Froyo update the Camera app previews regular pictures. But if you take, lets say a panoramic picture. It saves it (you can find it with...

Hi guys, Don't know if this is a known issue. I flashed jpm with odin, everything was working fine. But suddenly I couldn't play a music file, I checked if the file was still there on the SD but it was gone. In fact all there was on the SD, was: a dcim, a lost.dir and a .androidsecure...

Hi all, Does anyone know a way to get the stock android calendar on the SGS. My Hero running Cyanogen has the stock one ofcourse. In this one you see the name of each calendar item, instead of just a colored bar. This is really usefull in "week view" because you can see the working schedule for...

This would be nice wouldn't it. I mean there is a version of worms for that bloody iThing and Hedgewars (which opensource!) is being developed for the same bloody iThing. So why not for an open source system like android! WHY I ASK THEE! WHYYYYYY:( Regards, A sad DaanJordaan P.S. Go play...

Well got my Galaxy S yesterday, I am blown away. This thing is incredible! So guys, thanks for all your support, I'm over to the SGS forum. Cheers, DaanJordaan

Apple's Ipad and Iphone These two products are under heavy fire as you probably know. And that is for a perfectly good reason. They do not work properly. So my question is: how does Apple pull it off every time, with limited commercials. Just a letter from Jeve Stobs once in a while and some...

Hi guys, I was wondering if there is a rom based on the official 2.1 release from htc, but without any of htc's stuff, just a clean android system like the motorola droid?

Sense doesn't work for me I find it to laggy here's a quote from HTC's CEO Peter Chou: Does anyone know how I can get the original android homescreen? The official 2.1 home! not some other app:) thanks in advance

Googled for a little while but couldn't find anything. I would like to use the official 2.1 home app. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks in advance

All the roms accept for modaco's have problems, small or big they just annoy me. Just wanted to get that out of my system. I don't mean to offend anyone! Especially not the devs I do respect your work. This is my opinion.

Dear patient Hero users, Finally HTC officially announced a release date, well not a date but a indication:p On the renowned dutch website Tweakers.net an article is posted, which says HTC gives Hero an update in march! Tweakers.net is a very up-to-date website with updates about elctronics...

Hi guys, Can anyone explain or point me to a thread. I was messing around the other day and removed dropbear from the modaco rom I'm running (for totally no reason I must say:p). But now I'm a bit more experienced with ssh so I'd like to install it again. I've been running this rom for quite a...

For all of you who are running wavesecure, don't make the same mistake I did! Here's wat happened: I lost my phone after a short walk around the block. I tried to call it to hear if I maybe left it in the pub where I was at the moment. I called it three times, but the fourth time some ***hole...

Dear dev's I've got another idea hope you can do something with it I was wondering if it would be possible to tweak the youtube app so you can turn the screen off during a video i.e. if you just want to listen to the music and don't want to drain your battery with the screen on when it's not...

Dear devs, I'm not a developer (I shouldn't even be posting here:o) Maybe it's possible to use the light sensor for "dim/waking screen" during a call. It would be tricky ofcourse because what if you're in a dark environment:p But perhaps it's possible to let the sensor scan the intensity of...

Hi, I'm experiencing a weird bug, since I did a ROM update from HTC. Start the browser Rotate screen so you enter landscape mode Press the physical search button Try to type something and the keyboard starts to bounce:p Very annoying, does anyone have the same problem? Or a fix? Thanks in...
