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?

Wow you must be very skilled and talented! Sometimes messing with stuff like that can create bootloops and random freezes. I also love how you have contributed to this thread by saying how you ALWAYS use your own CPU setups. It was very informational an helpful. Thanks!

Rooted but as close to stock as possible. I've always had issues with heavily tweaked custom kernels. They have their place, but not if you wan't a solid rooted daily driver IMHO.

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...

Had the exact same thing. X axis got stuck. Just started working again all of sudden.

Just a heads up, there are some Nexus 5 users that also experience bad battery life on lollipop. Thread here Might just be lollipop?

I'm fairly sure it does. Also, this part needs a little editing:

I 've tried the OP's approach, but it is still just a very wonky implementation. Things like this have to be 100% accurate else they get annoying really fast. That goes for a lot of Samsung's added functionality actually. Some stuff works well, where other stuff (*ahem* remember smart scroll?)...

This isn't actually working code of course but you get the idea int fileNum = 0; File file = new File ("video_rec_" + fileNum + ".mkv"); while (recording == true) { recordToFile(file) if (file.length() > 2gb) { filenum++; file = new File ("video_rec_" + fileNum...

Probably does, "Gear VR Service" and "Gear VR Shell" are listed in the applications manager. Hmm, recent apps button seems a bit less laggy. My Samsung gallery is still horribly broken though.

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

Cable modded M50's! And for more compact occasions the awesome HD 25 Aluminiums :D Broke my Phihlips Fidelio S1's :( That was a great pair of in ears!

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...

Guys, guys, guys! This thread was marked as a [Q]! It has gone completely off topic. Those with S4's, S3's and newer Notes, how is your experience with AOSP roms? Is it easy for open source devs to develop for them? It doesn't matter who likes what, or why you can't root because of security...

Is your Note 3 supported by AOSP rom makers?

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...

Yeah that's strange behavior. My dad was playing a game on his N7 which was hooked up to his PC when it suddenly died. Scared the hell out of him, turned out it hadn't been charging through USB for some reason, or maybe not enough. Weird about last night. Maybe it wasn't plugged in completely...

Is this strength or just milliseconds? Seems if I put it to 500 it vibrates for half a second at max strength.

I don't know how easy it is these days to flash to Samsung phones. Binary counters and what not. Plus they really pissed me off by not open sourcing their drivers in my Note 1 days. No ICS buttery smooth experience on CM9 there. And the bloat Samsung packages with their roms is just horrible. IR...

Revert to stock and see if it still acts like this? A friend of mine had the same blinking red led. Turned out the battery was completely drained. After charging it for a while it was fine again.

Might be better to post this in the Q&A section next time. But yeah Xposed framework might help you out. http://www.xda-developers.com/android/say-goodbye-to-custom-stock-roms-and-hello-to-xposed-framework/

I do not have enough "thanks" for this thread:crying::p

That... Is... Awesome!!!

Customizable quick settings most definitely!

Photojojo lenses Just an FYI the photojojo lenses come in different variations. The poles are different and there is no way to guarantee they'll work. I got a pair which did not work. The customer service said they could not guarantee me anything. Now I know it's annoying to post in bold but...

Zoom all the way in and shake your phone ever so slightly, you'll notice that the viewfinder kind of floats the image.

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...

Wrote an app for when you quckly wan't to check your GPU speed. Without typing cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/gpu_oc It communicates with Franco's interface so it will work on any kernel containing that. Will be adding some features in the future. APK is in the attachment. Big thanks...

Cool, and agreed with the above. If you can see stuff on the screen, it's technically not bricked. Bricked an N7 once, it was stuck in APX mode, the lowest recovery mode for tegra chips I believe. At the time there was no way recovering from it using NVFlash, maybe there is now though. Mind...

Can you get into the bootloader?

Did you take a look at the poetic slimline? here

Sure, but that is something that we are able to do. A lot of users will never do that because they don't know how and/or don't wan't to get into it. So they will be stuck with a crappy stock (as in what their device shipped with) browser until Google updates. It seems weird that you buy a...

Okay I'm working on that at the moment. Whenever a layout is created an (int) "counter" get incremented. I will save this "counter" in the SharedPreferences. When the app starts layouts get created "counter" times. Is this good practice? It seems so strange that there isn't an easier way to save...

Yeah when you press back button and start the app again or completely kill it. It also happens on orientation change as the activity get restarted then as well. But I think you can override that in the manifest somewhere.

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...

Dual panel settings?

This.

Agree with the OP My post about Auto-zooming at the Google product forums didn't get too much responses. I would really like a Google dev to respond. Maybe you guys can help out and post your annoyance there as well:)...

On-screen volume control Hi guys, I am trying to find a good method for on-screen volume control. With some cases it's nice to have on-screen control, as the buttons are tucked away a bit. And it's just a pretty cool feature anyway. I know there are apps that can do this, but having it in the...

Mine does it especially with a case:p The kind if material probably matters. Cheers, Daan

I appreciate your feedback. But please test it with two fingers like in the YouTube video. Without it being plugged in, and completely insulated. I'm pretty sure every N7 has this issue. Keep the fingers on the same axis and the problem shall occur. More fingers register fine, but we don't use...

I Finally Got A New Nexus 7! Tried to return to stock before I exchanged it. While updating the bootloader to 4.18 it gave an unknown error and got stuck in APX mode. Phew lucky me I could go pick up a new one immediately. Oh yeah forgot to mention new Nexus has the same touch issue.

dafuq!?

Seen a few. Get the poetic slimline case. Trust me. Best bang for your buck. Saw some guy who dropped his N7 with a poetic slimline and his screen cracked... Don't drop your things just because they're in a case. But seriously, it offers complete protection on all sides from scratches and mild...

A lot of people are saying it's smoother. Are you guys sure it's not just placebo? Of course it would be nice! But is it really that much better? I'm hoping for the best, but I'll be staying a bit skeptical until a proper changelog. Which by the way is completely and utterly ridiculous that it...

Don't have any experience with this relock thing on my N7 or Gnex. Go for it man! ROOOOT YOOU MUST! On a more serious note, say the USB port breaks, while you are unlocked. You cannot relock it, therefore they may not repair it under warranty. I have no experience with returning Nexus's but all...
