Lock 2.0 Donate

I got the donate version (love it) but i have moved apps to sd card on my phone, and i have noticed this program, along with a few others need to be started when you restart your phone, is this the case if your apps are on the phone? Also is there a means to tell the g1 what apps i would like it to run on startup?

the new version gives u an option to run at start up

Doh!!! now i really feel like an idiot... I blame linux for my brain frying.
Thanks alot got it set now

i went ahead and got the donate version and i really love the app i just hate how it goes to sleep when i am only using touch. but the app is making my iphone friends so jealous

Lock 2.0 Problem
Well I got the lock 2.0 donate version. Whenever I run the app for it to download the default.zip file it says "the application lock 2.0 has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"
But the free version runs fine..

Can not find the donate version in the market - Bulgaria/Europe

Runs fine on my G1
if you don't know what you doing or if u move file that u don't know what they do, don't come crying here asking for help + saying that the app don't work

I found a bug that i reported to the developer.
You can bypass the lock feature, click menu-set skin-back button.
Brings you to the homescreen not back to the lock screen

i liked the app, but asked for a refund becuz when lock2.0 was running, my notification sounds wouldn't work.
anyone else have this problem? i would get the LED notification, but no sound.

No he did not. I still get no sound wheter it's running or not. Hopefully I get it back when I uninstall.

this app worked fine until i turned on the option to have it open on startup. now my phone hangs on the android loading screen. it will not go past it. anyone else had this problem? i have tried to unistall via adb but couldnt figure out how to. any help would be great. thanks!

Grrrr... I uninstalled it, too unstable to be truly usefull. Restart the phone and you have to restart the program, I know you can set it to run at start-up but then it does not bypass that fugly "stock" locked screen. Notifications work on and off, made me miss so many emails....... I'll wait and see if dev can work all those bugs out, may be reinstall it in a month or so.

Weird, I don't have any problems with it. Yeah, when the phone restarts it goes back to the stock locked screen, but I simply enter my unlock pattern and done.

lock 2.0 notification problems
I've read in a few posts where people have notification problems, either no notificaton, or you cant pull down the notification screen etc. I had this problem too intermitantly, i played with it, and found a work around, hopefully help some others experiencing the same probs till the dev comes up with a fix. When you first boot your phone, if you have the proggy set to come on at startup, you have about 3 seconds, where it boots to your normal android start screen (half window, with time network information in it.) if you wait about 3 seconds, it will autolock into your lock 2.0 program. at this point your notifications are screwed, but if when it first boots to the normal android boot screen, and you hit the menu button, it will move to your desktop, and then autolock. You should be good to go at this point. everytime i press menu before it locks, i have 0 notification problems. Hope this helps some of you out there

[Q] Cracked LCD

Hi Everyone,
I dropped my nexus one today, and the lcd cracked. The digitizer is working though, because i can unlock the phone, answer phone calls, etc.
I want to take a few screenshots since i've recieved a few important text messages that i would like to take a look at, how ever usb debugging is off, so i need a little help turning that on.
I need some guidance on how to do it without me seeing the screen, like what parts of the screen i need ot press on to get to that menu and check the usb debugging option.
If anyone would like to post a few screenshots, so i can at least see what areas i would have to press, or a video would do great.
Thank you so much

I assume you know how to get into settings so I started form there
I put little red arrows pointing to where you need to press it should be relativity simple. To make sure you have it enabled just open a command prompt on the computer and navigate to the directory where you have adb using cd EX: "cd C:SDK/SDK/tools" then type "adb devices" (no quotes) and if you get the S/N number of your phone that means you got it.

This will help a ton .
One more question, do I have to tap on the checkmark button thing, or will taping any part of that enable it?

Use stylus pen to draw on PC

Any one knows a software that can use G-Notes stylus pen to draw on PC?
i want to draw on MS-PAINT using my stylus.
can that be done?
please help
thanks in advance!

second that
I have been looking all over for an app like this, not confined to a single program on windows but working like any Wacom tablet.

If love that as well! Sounds like there's an business opportunity for an enterprising developer...

As long as you have the Tablet PC it could work.
The vice versa can also be truth - used to have HP TX2650 tablet, all I've got left now is the pen, which works perfectly on the note

Not possible without hardware modification to your computer monitor.

PRemoteDroid on the market, lets you connect your note to the PC via wifi.
it lets me use my galaxy note as a drawing tablet for the PC. its not the most accurate thing to use though, but its better than nothing.

You both misunderstand what the OP is asking for. He isn't asking to use the S-Pen to draw on a PC monitor, no, he is asking to use the Note as a digitizer tablet.
Using the Note as a digitizer tablet for a PC is certainly possible, but it requires quite a lot of work because one must code a complete virtual digitizer driver. Transferring data between the phone and the virtual driver is the simple part.
That said I think you'd be better off just buying a cheap digitizer tablet somewhere, the Note is too small to use comfortably like that.

Excellent! Please develop this further. This app would be ideal for drawing diagrams while in meetings and can take the things you can do with the Note to the next level.

I actually couldn't get it to work. There is no black screen on my computer when I run the client. Running the client on the computer just opens up a small window which detects the finger and shows the output in some numbers. When I write on the Note, I see the writing, but it closes the app in a couple of seconds. I have windows 7.
The app looks very promising.

App closes when orientation is changed. that's a bug. (just disable screen rotation)
about black screen on PC , its just some drawing application with black background. this small app on PC just forces cursor to move. and when you use stylus, it imitates mouse press. just open mspaint and try it.

Wow you should be on the xda homepage with this awesome program THANKS!

Hey dzjosjusuns! Any update on that? Would you consider making a Linux version of the server?

This is a really cool and useful feature
But unfortunately it's not working for me, i just tried to install it on my n7000
After i copied the apk file over to my phone, i tried to open it and got the 'Parsing Error: There is a problem parsing the package"
Do you think this might have something to do with it not being compatible with Gingerbread 2.3.6?
Sorry if it sounds like a bit of a dumb question but I'm a noob to all of this

Tips for coping with an un-rooted device

There are a lot of threads here and in the VZW forum about how terrible this device is, etc, without root. I'm a former flash-a-holic and my last several devices have all been Samsung on stock, albeit rooted, firmware. those of us preferring touchwiz have our reasons, and those who prefer aosp have theirs, but this isn't a "why we can't have aosp" thread, this is about making lemonade with what we have.
so, my reasons for wanting root, and how I worked around them:
1. ad blocking. I LOVE adaway, its seriously the first app I'd install on a new device after rooting. without root, give adblock plus a try. you can turn off the status bar notifications in the app and by ticking the box in the app manager.
its simple enough to disable apps on WiFi, just input the proxy host name and port and you're done. I hadn't ever found a clear and concise instruction on how to do this with mobile data, so here it is- create a NEW APN and copy all of the info from the stock APN, and add the proxy host name and port. done, you now have ad blocking on WiFi and mobile data, without root, and without persistent notifications.
2. de-bloating. first, the s5 has less bloat than the s3 or s4, but its still there. it is INCREADIBLY easy to disable or uninstall on this device. go to the app drawer and press the settings icon (or long press the app switcher button) and select uninstall/disable apps. if its ATT or Samsung, and you don't want it, odds are you can either uninstall or disable it. just make sure that in Samsung Apps you disable automatic updates over WiFi. you can also hide them.
myth busting time: IF you were rooted, and IF you manually removed bloat apps, you do NOT gain ANY additional usable space in device storage.
3. tether bypass. there are multiple threads here on how to do this. I have a 10gb plan so its a non issue here.
4. Writing to extSDcard. most built in apps like the browser, email, and camera will save to the ext SD card. so will my files, which is actually a LOT better than on the s3 or s4.
5. removing bloat bookmarks from the stock browser. I prefer the stock browser over chrome, call me crazy. I also don't like the 4 pre-loaded bookmarks being in my list. I saw a tip here to just create a folder called My Bookmarks or whatever you like and put your bookmarks there. the bloat is still there but its not staring you in the face.
so what else have you guys been doing to get functionality that was easy and convenient with root, but still attainable without?

Speed- I find that a lot of people nag about speed, my phone is fluid in all ways. Three factors play into this, using the TW launcher, animation speed, one last tricky one-- S-Voice has a delay on the home button waiting for the possible hook in for user prompting it. My standpoint is you can get from a TW rom the kind of speed or more that you can with a rom somebody else pre-tweaked for you.
Remedies below.
1. Get Nova Launcher (you can look into others if you like, if you want an experienced users perspective on speed, use Nova it flies)
2. Enable Developer Options(click About Device, click build number until it says Dev mode is enabled), Turn OFF animations for Transition window animation scale, transition animation scale and animator duration scale.
3. Open up S Voice (through the double-tap shortcut or in the app drawer). Tap the menu button in the top right corner (three dots) and find the "Open via home key" option under "Wake-up." Disable for slightly faster home button response.
Some people may find this abrupt transition between applications off putting at first but once you give it an hour the phone is flying so fast I could never go back. Enjoy!

As mentioned above:
Nova Launcher
Transitions at .5 or OFF
De-bloating (see this thread)
And - tasker, tasker, tasker!

My tip.. simple but I'm a customize nerd.
iFont available for free from the Play store allows you to add hundreds of fonts to your phone right from the app, and is compatible with the font selection from settings - display.You can also load fonts from the internet or your computer and use that as your default font.
The one lag, I still can't stand... despite all the animations being off is the lag between camera and gallery... like I take a photo, click the little image to view it and it sits there for at least 15 seconds before the gallery opens up. Anyone else have this issue?? I'm so used to CM based roms and still try to swipe to view the gallery LOL

This could be due to your SD card. If you are saving pics to external SD and your card is a lower class it will read and write data in a longer time frame. If you are using internal memory and not the SD card slot then I'm not sure. Backup everything and try a factory reset. I personally don't have an SD card, I don't see the need without root. Also it takes about 3 seconds for me to do what takes you 15. That's why I think an SD might be the Culprit here

There is 1 thing you can not do without root that is needed for me. I own a Pioneer Appradio and use ARUnchained which requires root. If you don't know what it is then look it up. It basically mirrors your phone and lets you use touch on Pioneers Appradio. I used this with my GS3 and if I would have known we wouldn't have root after this long I would have kept it and not bought the GS5. There is no getting around root for this. Pioneer's stock app has restrictions and doesn't let you mirror everything where as ARUnchained solves this problem.

I would like to find a way to save stuff from Dropbox to the external memory.

The menu button function is still there ... just long-press the recent apps button. If you've got a specific app that doesn't display the 3-dots menu somewhere on the screen, you might want to reach out to the developer. That's part of modern Android UX standards. I recently reached out to Untappd and they updated their app to include it pretty quickly.

Ah, gotcha. Unfortunately, short of root reassigning buttons, I don't think that's a desire that will see much traction in the future now that the UX standards require on-screen menus and more devices are coming out without any soft buttons at all. When you get down to it though, you're either tapping the bottom-left of your device or you're tapping the three dots on the screen.

Awesome app called quick click,let's you map your volume buttons for flashlight and a lot of others actions,just throwing it out there missed using xposed,mods with that.

Note 5 Screen Mirroring problem

I have just bought a note 5 to find there is no screen mirroring on this phone.
I have also tried to download the Samsung link app but it says it is not compatible with this phone.
Does anyone have any ideas, i only want to stream my videos to a Samsung T.V.
So far this phone has been a huge dissapointment, no external memory and now they take away something i tended to use everyday.

Well since the OP didn't say it wasn't working, I didn't feel the need to say how.
The OP said screen mirroring isn't on the device. Simply pulling down the notification shade shows the button to enable it.

Funny

If your phone is not rooted you should have no problem with screen mirroring if it's rooted you simply need to add a few words so that you can allow it to work again. It works it's there

Note 5 doesn't sees chromecast as screen mirroring device... Anyone have this issue?
Sent from my SM-P600 using Tapatalk

You can also access screen mirroring from the Gallery by clicking share, screen mirroring is one of the options.

Pull down the notification panel and press "Edit" should be on the top right corner and it should pop up there

I don't think chromecast works with the built in screen mirroring. You have to use the chromecast app it's just as easy.

Go to About Device in Settings. Click on Status. Scroll to the bottom. If it say anything but "official" you won't be able to use a bunch of different Samsung apps that do a status check.

I had the same problem. Pull down notification bar select quick connect.

Figured I'd look into your request. First goto menu on Samsung TV, then goto network. Should then see a screen mirroring choose, select that. Then like mentioned, select screen mirroring in drop-down and Samsung TV choice should appear. In future you may just need to activate screen mirror after this initial connect. This was done from my Note 4, as well as my Note 5!
Hope this was helpful.

I'm having trouble connecting the screening mirroring with my tv...I have the Samsung all share hub...help!

hey . ive rooted my phone and in the status it doesnt say official but custom .. ofcourse cos its rooted
now what steps do i need to go through to enable screen mirrorring ?
thanks

My N920T is rooted so of course Status says Custom. Screen mirroring works perfectly fine for me with an Amazon Fire TV.

Thank you for that tip! I just upgraded from a Note 4 (SM-910T) to the Note 5 (SM-920I) and lost the menu option for screen mirroring. Your instructions worked perfectly. Annoying that we have to do that, but glad that the functionality is still there.

I found a tricky way to mirror video from Note5 to tv.
Pick any picture from your gallery.
At the bottom , there is a pop- up screen , choose share option.
Then choose mirroring option. Then your phone will look for tv or devices that you want to connect. After you choose that tv or device. Your phone will hook up and everything that shows on note5 includeing video will show on tv.

Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter
My Note 5 with Lolipop 5.1.1 doesn't work with my Microsoft Wirless Display Adapter...it sees it and tries to connect but never does it. My Note 3 on Kitkat 4.4.2 works better than anything I have every seen with this adapter, there is almost no lag! (unlike with Chromecast) I read that Lolipop broke a lot of phone's Screen Mirroring capabilities. Anyone know why or how to fix it yet?
