Bad battery life when using custom watch face. topic

To start, I'll say I was moderately impressed with the moto 360 battery life when I got it a couple weeks ago based on all the poor things I had heard about it. My issue however is that it seems like if I use any watch face other than the stock ones that come installed already, the battery struggles to last more than 3 hours. When using something like minimal or classic (pre installed faces) I have no trouble getting 18 hours and having a bit to spare.

Could an element like having a weather display be whats hurting it so bad? I think most of the faces I tried show weather, but only update every hour or two hours. I can not imagine one or two updates eating up 80% of the battery.

As the title said..
Can we (non miui rom users) use miui camera on our rom?
Now I'am on mokee history..
But I really miss the quality of miui camera..

What Video Recording app are you using? topic

I'm currently using the Cinema Fv 5 but it stutters while recording video 4k, 1080p and etc. I've used the stock camera which has a problem with focusing.

I love the Cinema Fv 5 app just wish it didn't have lag or stutter

Unable to send SMS using default messaging app topic

As the title says, I'm unable to send any text messages using the default messaging app on moto E. I have my phone rooted. Messaging is a system application. I'm able to recieve messages though. If I change the default messaging app to some other app like hangouts, everything works. I have tried making a backup of the messaging app, uninstalling and reinstalling but nothing works. Also cleared data. When I send a message, it's stuck at "sending...". Check screenshot.

Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance.

My phone randomly decided to bootloop today and the only thing I can get to is fastboot.

I'm about to flash the stock 5.0.1 image to it and see if it boots, but we'll see.

[Q] New to using Sony devices topic

Hi there,

Have recently purchases the Z3C and really loving it so far:

Had a couple of questions I was looking to get answered, if possible.

1. I am using the stock Sony Email app and noticed that when i see an email preview in my Notifications window (swiping down from top of phone) it gives me the option to either 'Mark as Read' or 'Reply'

Does anyone know how I could possibly change the option 'Mark as Read' to 'Delete' ? Is this configurable somehow?


2. In the recent apps screen (to the right of the home button at bottom of the device) there is an excellent option to 'Close All' -

Is there a way I can exclude an app from being killed. At the mum it is cutting off the 'Walkman' app which I use to listen music. It is a little frustrating to cut my audio off and be have to re-open 'Walkman' app.

Thanks in advance,

litfoo

[Q] Question about app dev with Phonegap and using native functionality topic

I'm interested in building/having built a real estate app for IOS and Android and want to utilize the native Compass and GPS functionality but develop a hybrid app using Phonegap and, perhaps, AppGyver's Steroids development tool. Is this feasible? Are there any concerns or limitations that I should be aware of? I've been told that building in HTML5 is the more cost effective way to go but want to make sure that the functionality that I require (use of GPS and compass features) can be realized without having to develop native-specific versions. Would love to hear back with any info and advice.

Installing Cyanogenmod using Cyanogen Recovery? topic

Hi,

I'm trying to install Cyanogenmod on a Sony Xperia Z2 Wifi tablet and am following the directions on the cyanogenmod wiki (using the most recent nightly), but unfortunately I loaded the 'boot.img' and instead of taking me to ClockworkMod Recovery it has taken me to 'Cyanogen Recovery'. In this Cyanogen Recovery I just can't see a way to install Cyanogenmod according with the directions.

I'd really love some help, as for now my tablet is unusable and I need to use it!

Thanks!

[Q] Help using tasker for car docking and undocking topic

I'd like to stop using Ibolt dock-n-drive for various reasons, so I'm trying to use Tasker to set the volume, keep the screen on, etc when my S 4 goes into dock mode. However, even with Dock No-Op, whenever I undock, the media volume goes to 0 and Bluetooth turns off. I'd like these settings to be restored to their pre-dock state which is what Tasker is supposed to do AFAIK. Is there an easy way to prevent these settings from being adjusted (by the OS?)? I'm sure I can eventually figure out how to make tasker save and restore these settings with brute force, but if somebody has already done this, please let me know the trick or the Tasker code.

[Q] Annoying SMS alert when using 3rd party SMS app. Lenovo A806 miui V2 topic

let me start by saying the lenvo A806 is a great phone and is a serious bit of kit for the price tag (£150 posted from UK, £120 from china). However i didnt like the default sms app so i changed it to chomp sms im sure some of you use it. All is well except when i sent a text i get the following annoying alert and i cant figure out how to block/disable it. This happens on any 3rd party sms app.

I am reasonably clued in with this sort of stuff and have rooted and installed custom roms on other phones :cowboy: (nexus4, galaxy s 1+2). Any ideas guys?

Thanks! :confused:
