Hi guys,
I posted a contest on RootWiki to determine what the splash screen for the next Safestrap would look like. This is a screen shown for 8-10 seconds on boot up where the user can enter recovery by hitting the menu button.
Submissions till Tuesday night (11/1) and then a public 24 hour poll of the top 2 to to determine the winner.
For more details check out:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/8453-looking-for-a-little-help/
Try not to laugh too hard at what I'm using currently. Trust me.. it's very unoriginal.
And we have our 1st submission!
Head on over and weigh in on what you want to see out of the next Safestrap splash screen.

I posted one over at rootzwiki as well.

Hello all,
A long time ago if you recall I gave away G+ invites. Some people didn't get it, and I really didn't want to type those emails again. I snooped around the "Notifications" area of G+, and I found a loophole to get in. I tested this on a different account, so I know it works. For me at least.
Simply navigate to this link:
https://plus.google.com/_/notificat...q6PPBddlXk0yrYVa8Jg-N23Yx0ukukHw6tO0qIbNM5qus
And you will see one of the following pages:
1. Sign in with your Google account - do just that.
2. Big G+ page with a Sign in button - click that
3. Something totally different - post here and say it didn't work, I''l find a new link.
Again, I tested it so it should work. If not, like #3 says, post here with a screenshot of the page you get. No flaming, please.
Thanks!
"Google+ is in limited Field Trial
Right now, we're testing with a small number of people, but it won't be long before the Google+ project is ready for everyone. Leave us your email address and we'll make sure you're the first to know when we're ready to invite more people."
Yesterday I saw "You have 150 invites!" in Google Plus, and when you signed into Google it invited you right in. shrug
Weird, I was never invited, but I'm using G+...weird I iizzzz confuzled...

Remarkable. Worked for me just now, despite checking mere minutes before to find out the registration was closed, even to those with an invite.
thanks!
Worked Great Thanks
First, thank you for giving us this awesome community. I just have a couple minor issues that I'd like you to consider.
1) The new emoticons are very childish looking. Though I do like this one--> :cyclops:
2) "Sorry, you are limited to 8 thanks per day" is very annoying because whenever a new phone comes out and Dev comes on strong, I may need to give thanks up to 20 times a day.
3) There is no option to go back to the subforum I'm in. So if I'm on page 3 of a thread, I can't just click the back button on my browser to go back to the main page. I have to scroll all the way up to click on the subforum name to load the subforum.
4) None of the sub forums are listed alphabetically.
5) Mobile signatures are always placed inside when I quote someone. And there is no line in someones post to indicate something is their mobile signature. Gets a little confusing sometimes.
As you can see below, there is a line above my signature. It's not like that from the XDA app. And my signature is not quoted but it would be if I were on the XDA app.

1) The new emoticons are very childish looking. Though I do like this one--> :cyclops: Deal with it
2) "Sorry, you are limited to 8 thanks per day" is very annoying because whenever a new phone comes out and Dev comes on strong, I may need to give thanks up to 20 times a day. Prevents thanks spamming. It was unlimited, until people just went around giving thanks for no reason, this way you choose who you give thanks to, also, thanks dont make your e-peen bigger.
3) There is no option to go back to the subforum I'm in. So if I'm on page 3 of a thread, I can't just click the back button on my browser to go back to the main page. I have to scroll all the way up to click on the subforum name to load the subforum. Look for archer's toolbar extension. I have it. He included a button which you click that takes you to the top. Then you can click the subforum name.
4) None of the sub forums are listed alphabetically.There's usually like 5 of them anyway
5) Mobile signatures are always placed inside when I quote someone. And there is no line in someones post to indicate something is their mobile signature. Gets a little confusing sometimes.

The mobile sigs are just added text. Remember signatures for emails? You type in the text you want to show up, and when you compose a new email the text is already there, and you can modify it. Same with app sigs.

Answers (my trolling) in BOLD
Much of what you've asked has been answered above (thanks jaszek). For many other topics, and the relevant forum, have a look at "About xda-developers.com". That forum is dedicated to discussion about the site itself.
With that said, thread closed.
Share your thoughts!
Are you going to cancel or wait for Google?
I'm personally going to leave my order in there,
meanwhile, I found myself another reason to buy a Note 2.
I will keep the OP updated if I find any information useful for us who are on "Back-Order" status.
Don't try to call Google unless you can/willing to talk to their supervisor.
Because the Reps know nothing more than we do.
Let the fun begin!
I guess since you can't cancel you wait....LOL
Waiting.
I figure this will give development a little time and perhaps if they make any changes in production to fix any minor issues I have a better chance of getting one of those.

Im waiting as well. 2nd batch is always better than the first, right? : )
Continue the discussion in this thread please.
Hi All,
Maybe this is not the right place to put this message, but since it has to do with development I might as well try. There is some trent developing in the industry that you will be able to unlock your device by swiping over the screen. Like the Z10 and probably the Lumia 920. Since the powerbutton of our One is on top and for one hand rather difficult to reach it would be nice to have such an option too. Maybe not swype but hit Home and then Back or Home twice. I leave that to the smart guys. Is this possible or maybe is it already out there.

First yes this is in the wrong place. It should belong in Q&A second there is a kernel which modifies the home button which allows you to press it to wake the device,. Many of the kernels have this feature now but the main is tbalden

Ok, Thank you for your clearing this up. Now when I search the forum I won't find anything related to this feature. Any direction to where I have to search for please.
Search in this Android Development Forum or in the Original Android Development Forum for Kernels!
There are a bunch of Kernels which have these features. Just keep your eyes open :good:
Did you ever find anything on this? I'm looking for this for my s3 and I found one called pgm nexus

Searched for two days before asking this so if I missed this-my apologies in advance. Is there or is there not a working root tool/utility if I currently have 4.3 on the device (I was sent a new one and it was updated already)-and what/where is it? Please point me in the right direction and I really, really appreciate the help here.

Some context since I have a moment: I Used some type of tool/program to root this thing when I got launch day. I finally broke it on a business trip in Japan last week and I have honestly fell off the forums completely since my son was born about the same time as I originally rooted this thing. That, combined with a partnership I have taken on in business- has essentially taken all free time away and, when my replacement arrived yesterday, I felt completely inept and without any reference point in my head to work from. Sad, I really miss having the time to mess around with my gadgets and I've learned so much here, but I'm really hoping to find some balance soon enough. So on lunch, after a day and a half of searching, I gave up and indeed made a very clumsy post, absent of any real thought-clearly showing some frustration. I Still have no idea where this all in one that I know I used to root this originally went and I certainly posted in the wrong section-no excuse for that- the gentleman has every right to react how he sees fit although after 7 years here I never found any productivity come out of commenting in that manor-so I choose to conduct myself differently from the outset. Appreciate the time and help.

I hear you; five kids, a full time job, and full time school and I try to build ROMs for this device. I understand where your coming from. Not the end of the world. But, as I have said in my threads before, if you make a really silly request, I reserve the right to mess with you about it. That's just me. But, I do it in playfulness, not actual meanness. Be cool, and if you need any help with anything, look me up.

No doubt you have that right and I'm all for bustin chops as well-to a point of course and yours was constructive. But some of the rage that I regularly see come out in comments here really bewilders me-I mean a paragraph about what a blanking idiot someone is or details about what they can go do to themselves- all because they are having trouble with something or even made a thoughtless post (like I did) -makes me want to say- "dude what happened in your day/life to react that strongly over something so insignificant?". Who knows. Anyway, I really appreciate you reaching out and relating to my situation a bit- especially since you clearly have a very busy life yourself-to say the least.
