[Q] app updates in att store - AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

okay im realty confused
went to att store this morning looked at the white note3 and saw some odd diffrences in some of the apps.
mail and mms.
the mail icon has a blue @ on it insted of red.
and the mms icon was diffrent
opend the apps they seems pritty much the same as the ones on my s4
but neve the less i realy liked the new icons
odd thing is everwhere i look they are noware to be found
mail icon looked just like that ATTACHED
Unfortunaly i cant recreate the messiging one.

I'm pretty confident it's because they have a demo unit on display. I would imagine they are much different than our phones.

My AT&T Note 8 has the different email icon in a release version.

Asurion address book out!

Write Asurion in Market and download the address book and the mix ins you want to get installed...
Amazing app, let's see how it develops...
im gonna bumb this cause this app is pretty cool. It connects all your contacts with facebook and twitter or w/e social network u use. It takes a couple min to setup and sync all your contacts though. I liked the notifications that it gave you for each contact. I did find it a little slow and the interface isnt really apealing. All in all, its pretty good just needs work on the interface and on the speed as well...
Havin some difficulty figuring out how to set up different notifications.
Pictures for contacts dont update with the FB page.
Ugly UI.
But to be honest the FB portion is better than the FB app. Its worth it for that alone. Alot of functionality seemingly. Absolutely needs to be streamlined.
still too laggy for daily use. it froze my phone for a good 4 minutes.
I messed with it a little. Seemed to be really slow on my G1 with CM 4.1.999.
My personal faveorite contacts app is still StarContact - I just wish they'd update it... I'd at least like to see contact photos. I hate it when good apps go abandoned.
As it stands it certainly isnt an Addybook replacement by any means.
I do hope they stick with it.
This is easily replacing my phonebook. I love it! I don't know what these other people are talking about with lag, but on cyan 4.2.2 it is phenomenal! I am blown away by it and am so glad something similar to voxmobiles upcoming effort has come out.
i'd love to try it out, unfortunately it seems it's not yet available here in germany - at least not for me
if someone could pass it on to it'd be much appreciated
cheers
anyone have a direct link? I can't find it in the market. Thanks!
Yeah I cant find it either.
I read in one of the market comments that it doesn't sync with Google, is that true?
cant find this in the market i found the you tube and speed dialer but no address book. anyone have a link?
Those of you who can't find it, where do you live. My buddy from Canada couldn't find it either. Might be a regional issue but I'm not sure.

Also have T-Mobile USA and found it. Search for Asurion.
It's a great app, but I found it has issues with the MixIn settings. It still gives notifications even though I disable them. It appears other people have issues with the settings as well that want to change update intervals so they don't use so much data. Keep in mind this is still in beta. Can't wait for an update.
can't find it. I have t-mobile USA. searched asurion and only the speed dialer and you tube mix in shows up. I'm running xrom if that helps. even if i try getting the link straight form the website, it doesn't show up. weird.

[Q] Blank Text in AT&T Navigator on HD7s

I just noticed a problem with AT&T Navigator on my HD7s, and I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed this on their HD7s as well. If I select the dark theme (black background) under settings on the phone, then open AT&T Navigator, everything is fine. On the first tab, it has a black background with white text & icons, and everything is cool! However, if I select the light theme, so most things on the phone have a white background, AT&T Navigator opens to a white background with white text, and I can't see anything (except for parts of 2 icons, which have black in them)! I know the text is there because if I tap on where text should be, the next tab or page opens, but it is the same way too - white text on a white background! This pretty much renders the app useless. I use this app all the time (I drive a tractor-trailer for a living), as a back-up to my truck GPS, but I never noticed this happening until yesterday. I downloaded an update to AT&T Navigator a few days ago that the Market prompted me to download, and I installed the "official" Mango update via Zune, but I'm not sure if either are related. I'm going to contact AT&T regarding this, but I'm wondering if anyone else on this forum may be noticing this behavior or not.
Thanks,
Dennis

[REQ] Working inverted contacts for stock 4.1.1 JB crespo4G

Hello everyone. Long time lurking first time posting. After running CM for a long time I decided to go back to the stock ROM for it's smoothness and stability. Of course in doing so I've given up theme chooser. :-/ So I've had to manually find inverted apps and replace everything which isn't that much of a problem except when it comes to contacts. I know when I originally ran the stock ROM I was able to locate a working inverted contacts for my device but I guess too much time has past and I haven't had the same luck. I've spent all weekend trying to find one...Searching the web, pulling from this ROM and that ROM, trying to make my own with only partial results. No luck. I've made no progress other than frustrating myself. So I fall upon the mercy of the forum and beg someone to please provide me an inverted contacts.apk for a Nexus S 4G running a deodexed JRO03R. Of course I have all of the prerequisits such as root and recovery and I've done a TON of searching both on and off the forum. Just because I'm a first time poster does't mean I'm a noob.
Funny timing! I have made a few ROMs before and I have tried so many Contacts apks to get contacts inverted. I actually can't find MMS either so I am going to try and find an old theme and try Metamorph app. I am using ExDialer with Dark ICS theme until I figure it out. I even went and added WiFi Tether added tons of inverted apps and toggles with Notification Toggle app and reodexed. I can't give up 4G tether. If I find one or can edit one I will post a link
I have a working inverted MMS with spit that I can post when I'm at home and on my PC. Provided I can get my post count high enough to post links. I can't remember the source though...Since going back to stock and trying so many apps and so many mods from so many sources it's all kind of became a big blur. I'm contemplating using a non-stock contacts for the time being but I like the vanilla Google apps so much, both in function and design. I just hate light holo and wish everything was dark.
Home and back on my PC. Here is the Mms.apk I promised. You'll have to add the first part yourself seeing as I haven't hit 10 posts yet. Everything works to my knowledge. Not one FC or error thus far. Sends and receives everything as far as I can tell. I always had a problem with CM sending and receiving photos but this one works. Incoming text is blue and outgoing is white. Main screen text is white, viewed texts are black to match the background, non-viewed are highlighted grey, and the count is silver. As mentioned it has split and Emoji support.
Sorry for the brief post before as I was at work. Didn't want to come off as a rude ****. My plans include re-odexing but not until I get past this one hang up. I also am using Notification Toggles amongst many other things. So far I've managed to find or create most everything blacked out including the framework so the menus and stuff are black. Also anything calling out for the default grey background gets replaced with black. Like Titanium Backup, Settings, or Root Explorer for example. Google wise I have inverted:
Email
Hangouts
G+
Voice
Drive
Search/Now (Whatever you want to call it)
Maps
Play Music
Youtube
Calculator (Actually the calculator from CM10 so there are more features. I've also added some other CM10 goodies that work like DSP Manager and Torch)
Calender
News and Weather
Google Settings
Play Store
MMS
And a bunch of other inverts such as my online storage sites or Pandora. I've modified and added so much I could go on for several posts. It's really only this last hump to get over until I feel my ROM is perfect.
I never thought about a morph theme...I thought about using the bits and pieces from my favorite theme to create my own invert but everything is XHDPI and I don't want to resize all of the images just to find out I F'd up again. I've also though about Xtheme seeing as how I'm already using various Xposed modules but I would rather not have to rely on a theme engine. I've successfully changed all of the images, bars, and text colors in one of my various attempts but the background remained white... I have no problem pulling apart apks, changing code, and stuff like that but my talents are a bit limited. I'm a hacker rather than a proper developer so it's more a bit of poking and proding then changing and hoping everything comes together right in the end.
* Moderators * Please don't get pissed at me for circumventing the no links until 10 posts rule. It is a safe apk I found on here somewhere and no spam links. It's a link to my personal Dropbox without any AdFly links or anything like that. Done so in the spirit of helping a fellow member of the community. When I get over 10 posts...Which I'm sure I will...I will fix the link.
Where did you get the inverted versions you have for 4.1.1 stock?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Xparent Gray Tapatalk 2
I honestly don't remember. I wish I did so I could give proper credit. I'm almost 100% positive it came from one of the graveyards on here but I've been around forums for long enough to know not to dig up corpses...Unless you enjoy fail and getting *****ed at by everyone. LOL I had to dig back through some ancient theads and lots of dead links for 4.1.1 stuff. It's obviously CM based but it didn't have a matching contacts. It was only the MMS.
I'm pretty sure when I originally ran 4.1.1 my inverted contacts came from a JusTunBean pack but I can find one existant mirror or link to an old 4.1.1 inverted installer. Pretty much everything I'm running now came from various sources that I've kind of lost track of. A lot of Team Blackout, a few other random inverts I found like Maps, some pieces of BlackBean like email, a little CM10, a few odds and ends like the SGS2 clock app or Nofication Toggles, some Xposed modules, a bunch of framework stuff like centering the lock screen clock or changing images like the pop ups or dots that appear around the lock, and some other odds and ends stuff like changing the lock handle in Phone.apk to match the lock screen handle that I changed in the framework. I just ghetto odexed my ROM for the time being with Titanium.
I'm at wits end when it comes to Contacts. It's either make my own somehow, hope someone provides, or switch to a contacts/dialer replacement like DW. I'm tired of searching the dark and dusty crevices of the net in hopes of finding a working inverted 4.1.1 Contacts or a live link to one. :-/
In my poking and proding I found out there is a lot more to inverting contacts than just image and basic color xml editing. When you decompile the apk there are styles.xml that seem to be calling out the Holo or Holo.Light theme but I don't full understand all of the values. One does not simply change all of the values from Holo.Light to Holo.
Yeah Contacts and Dialer are combined into the Contacts app. I managed to get everything else inverted as well. I am using exDialer Dark ICS theme for now until I hunt one down. It looks pretty good and works well

Not bad. I decided to just say screw it and purchased DW. Pricey at nearly $10 but tons of features and it's pretty customizable so I don't have to rely on other's themes. I would post pics but this damn 10 post until links rule. I understand the necessity because of spammers and bots but it sucks being a legit new member. I don't see the point in circumventing the filter either for pics. The first time to share a file sure...But not just for pics. I'm not the type to post BS and gibberish just to get my count up either. I guess I should get involved in topics other than my own then re-visit my thread. I also changed email clients to Aqua Mail while I was at it.
Over 10 so now I can post pics. This is what I've got going on. I haven't played around with all of the options yet though. After paying $10 I probably won't be going back to stock.

You can also get the Xposed Installer and the Theme Engine. Its like adding theme engine on CM depending on the theme. I am still stock with Xposed and Gunmetal Cobalt theme and has lots of themes to try. This is stock deodexed 4.1.1 Everything is free too

Galaxy Gear Working GOOD on s4 NOW

I purchased my gear yesterday and after finding and instaling the gear manager via samsung's app store I am happy to report that the only 2 things i don't have working at the moment is Svoice... seems to be a bug telling me to accept a disclaimer on the s4 itself but I have already done it and am using Svoice. Two is Notifications of txts and some others... got google now notifications to come thru but most others won't push to the watch. Contacts list... Phone dialer and speakerphone call log and apps work GREAT!!
Thanks guys.. now lets get this thing rooted and fix these two problems cuz id love notifications... a custom rom and my google now to replace the svoice please... Im willing to donate NOW. lol I really want handcent notifications and a way to respond by voice to a handcent txt on the watch..
People look at me like I'm :cyclops: but I could'nt care less cuz I'm walking around looking like Capt Kirk on his communicator.
:highfive::laugh:
Running HyperDrive from sbreen latest release.
Same here on an ME7 Verizon S4. Looking forward to the 4.3 update.
Working on GS3 too
Bought the gear today, hoping it will show the time at least until 4.3 update is out for gs3 in December, but happy to report that it's working with the gear manager downloaded from the Samsung store. Also notifications aren't working, same message for S Voice as above, can't download new apps and weather isn't syncing - everything else is working great! Call quality is surprisingly good, camera fun... really happy Samsung customer here
With the recent release of the MJ7 update for the S4 have either of you seen any issues fixed with notifications?

Changing the Background of Messages

Hi all,
I'm new here and am hoping someone can help. I have a Galaxy S6 Active. Pretty much since day one, I have used a third party app for texting because I didn't like the limited choices for backgrounds in the stock app. I prefer dark backgrounds on my phone and the few standard backgrounds for messages are all white or light colored. Using the third party app has been fine, until yesterday. That's when I got my new Gear Sport smartwatch. Apparently, you can't have a third party texting app in use if you want to be able to text on your watch, so I ditched the third party app. I'm now left wondering if I just didn't look hard enough in the Galaxy Apps or somewhere else to find a darker setting for the stock messages app on the S6 Active. From the little bit of research I've managed, I've learned:
1. the stock messages app isn't the same across all of the S6/Active/Edge(+) phones.
2. the stock messages app isn't the same based on carriers.
Is there any hope for me?
Many thanks!
Install a different theme on your phone. Go to Settings/wallpaper and themes/Themes tab and find one you like. I have an ICS theme on my phone and texts show up with a dark background and white text.

Thanks loads!! It worked like a charm.
A follow up, seemingly related question: since switching to the stock Messaging app, there have been occasions when I have swiped the screen to respond to another notification or even when I have simply swiped to open the phone that the Messaging app automatically opens. I thought that it was because the icon was at the bottom of the screen and that I was somehow inadvertently opening it even though that's where it's always stayed since I got my first smartphone years ago. So I moved the icon and it still happens. It wouldn't be such a problem if it didn't also open up the texting thread of the same person every time. If it just opened to the list of conversations, it wouldn't be as annoying, but I don't want people to see my texts. I have a lot of nosey people in my life.
Thanks again!!
