    Post [APP][4.2+] Latest Sony Music 9.4.4.A.0.3 {Updated 24 May 2019}

    For those looking for an alternative, JetAudio is about as good as it gets IMO. Free version is fine, paid removes ads and adds some additional functionality that probably most can live without. Cheers TRJB

    Post [APP][4.2+] Latest Sony Music 9.4.4.A.0.3 {Updated 24 May 2019}

    Yes, I started having problems with playlists a while back too with Xperia Music and have therefore abandoned it. The "Playlist Browser" shows all of my system playlists created by other music apps and/or previous versions of Xperia, and plays them fine. But the "Add to Playlist" (+ button...

    Post Favorite Watch Faces

    Answering my own question... ...most likely copyright infringement claim by Samsung would be my best guess, as they themselves just released the "official" version yesterday called "Tomcat". It's the exact version that comes stock on the newer Galaxy Watch, and includes the weather...

    Apparently, for Samsung phones running Oreo: Beta 6, 2 posts up. Newer versions are reportedly unstable on Samsungs. ---------- Post added at 10:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 AM ---------- Thank you! Cheers TRJB

    Post Favorite Watch Faces

    It was called "G-Watch" by "Italo Sovena", but when I search for him now, I don't see it in the list of his watchfaces anymore. Not sure if he deleted it from the store? It's still in my own profile since I did download it when it was available and I am still able to use it. There also was...

    I have a hard decyphering what MCG Beta 6 is from the download page at: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-arnova8G2/ I'm currently using "GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V6.apk" Can you please tell me exactly which file on the DL page is MCG Beta 6? thanks TRJB

    Post New Galaxy Watch's Watchface for Gear S3?

    Thanks, the native GWD version (G-Watch by Sovena) is *excellent*. I have no problem with replacing the weather with heartrate, since weather on any watchface for the Gear has yet to be implemented properly by any developer that I've seen. I've tried over a dozen with weather, and every one...

    Post Favorite Watch Faces

    Thanks! That's exactly like Mr. Time and Facer... I can't stand that, so I guess I won't be using Watchmaker either. I wonder why they can't program it to update before turning on like the native Samsung GWD faces do. Cheers TRJB

    Post Favorite Watch Faces

    I have a question about Watchmaker for those of you using it... Do the watch faces update themselves (their time display) either in the background, or just before the screen turns back on? IE, with GWD watch faces, that's the case, when the screen lights up the watch face is showing the...

    Post Favorite Watch Faces

    Hopefully I fixed the post, the image with the marketing photo should be attached now. I normally put my images on postimages.org and use the "img" tool to insert them in forum posts - that doesn't seem to work here for some reason so I uploaded to xda as an attachment instead. As far as style...

    Post Favorite Watch Faces

    I'm not personally a fan of blue watchfaces, or anything else with background colors other than either pure or very-near black. I just find that the OLED glow from them really looks unnatural. Does anyone know if the two watchfaces to the left in the Samsung marketing pics below are defaults...

    Post [APP][4.2+] Latest Sony Music 9.4.4.A.0.3 {Updated 24 May 2019}

    Works 100% on my Galaxy S8+ (Oreo), runs for hours and hours without ever crashing, so not sure what the previous poster's issue is. I use this over the stock Samsung player because for some dumb reason Samsung has hard coded their music player to have a 1000 song limitation in playlists, and...

    Post Port of Google camera with HDR+

    I found pretty similar results as you, with the washed out brighter colors in the Samsung camera, but the drawback is that the Google camera puts a green-cast on everything that is not relatively bright. You can see that in the fence that is in the left part of you photo, and to a lesser extent...

    I'm using a Galaxy S8+... the Samsung music player was generally fine, no issues with features or sound quality, however it has the same limitation with playlists that Google Play has, in that they can't contain more than 1000 songs. This is an issue for me because I have a playlist that has...

    Post Port of Google camera with HDR+

    Since Google designed this app for Nexus and Pixel phones, and neither support external SD cards, it's unlikely the code is in the app to save to external SD cards... I wouldn't count on that ever being possible with the Google Camera. Cheers TRJB ---------- Post added at 03:26 PM ----------...

    Post Can't snooze alarm on stock clock app

    If the stock app is not working well for you, you can change the default alarm app on the S8/S8+ (or any other Android phone that has a manufacturer's clock app pre-installed) as follows. It's just slightly convoluted, but once you do, then you can seamlessly use the Google Assistant to set...

    Post [App] bxActions - Remap the Bixby button! single, double and long press!

    Can you make the Volume buttons work when the screen is OFF, without AOD? Like "Frinky Music Controller" does, for skipping songs, etc. It's not all that useful to quickly skip a track if I have to turn on the screen first, and I don't/won't use AOD. Cheers TRJB

    Can someone who has this working on a Snapdragon (US/Canada) version please post all of their settings? I have yet to find a combination of settings that actually takes HDR+ photos... Some settings take and store a photo, but it is definitely NOT HDR anything; it's just a basic photo that...
