[Q] Samsung Galaxy SII ICS minor problems

Hello. I've installed ICS 4.0.3 (I9100XXLPS), and then rooted it. Everything works fine except for two things: Chainfire3D and lock screen AccuWeather.
In Chainfire3D I can't use per-app settings, because, for some reason, they won't work. I've tried reinstalling it, still no luck.
As for AccuWeather lock screen display, it shows 0.0°C most of the time, unless I go to Dispay Settings, and disable, then re-enable Weather. This fixes it for some time, after which it goes back to 0.0°C. The problem is only with the lock screen one, desktop widget shows normal temperature all the time.
Are these known issues? Any help on how to fix this would be appreciated. Thanks!
I have this problem too. The only solution is to disable weather from lock screen. There is no fix for this issue at the moment.
I've managed to make it work on my Galaxy S II (don't know for now long it will work ):
- I had the accuweather widget and accuweather lock screen enabled.
- Go to Applications on Settings, All applications
- Clear data and Force stop the app called "Accuweather Weather Daemon"
- Clear data and Force stop the app called "Accuweather.com"
- Turn on locating services
- Remove and add again accuweather widget on the home screen. It will automatically use the location service and show the right information.
After that the accuweather widget on the lock screen shows the right temperature as well

[Q] Customizing the MotoBlur ICS

Hi all,
I have several other Android devices at home, all of them runing CM7 or CM9. While I appreciate some of the things the Motorola ROM (GSM here) delivers, I'm missing quite a bit as well:
- grid size on home screen - having 3 widgets fills out completely a screen; I'm looking for a 50% or 100% increase in rows and columns. DPI changer is not able to provide that
- battery reporting is only done in 10% increments; I'm using Circle Battery Widget as a workaround
- no way to toggle 2G/3G with a switch. Using notification toggle because I cannot live without status bar toggles
- provider name is too long in the status bar
- no way to tweak auto light levels
- lock screen does not display any info about missed calls or messages
- notification led does not have any settings
- cannot assign custom shortcuts or wakeups - like pressing both volume buttons to open camera from lock
- no way to change the number of screens in home
- widgets do not get updated after an install, I need to kill the launcher first
- stock gallery looks really sad and performs slowly on zoom
- there is no "charge only" option beneath the usb/mtp/ptp
- no color themes for home screen, so I can use darker colors for power saving
- no themes for email widget, same reason
- email widget uses a lot of power (partial wake) even though the accounts are set to sync once per hour
- I don't see any way to take HDRs with the stock camera app. I thought this was default in ICS
- cannot use any other external sound equalizer - tried mostly with DSPManager
- stock music app does not wake on bluetooth control; if it's paused for more than 30 seconds I need to open it again to be able to resume music
- stock equalizer messes up the volume of the music pretty bad and it compresses the sound
- cannot assign a long press on the back button to kill the current app
On the other hand there are some new custom features which I really like, like the 'disable' application button, smart actions, detailed data usage and data limits, disabling background data, ...
So my question is, how can I enable some of the stuff above without losing a lot of battery life, money or UI integration (I'm thinking metro-like simplistic looks).
I'm also missing the option to disable individual permissions for apps, but the "disable background data" built-in feature fulfills 80% of this. I would have loved to be able to disable location awareness for some apps.
Right now the biggest gripe is the 10% step on battery reporting, I cannot get accurate battery stats. Still, that part is in part filled by BetterBatteryStats.

[Q] How to diable daily weather notifications?

Hi
every morning I have a notification about the weather of the day. It comes from the standard weather app. But on this app, I cannot disable notifications.
I'm not sure but it might be coming on when the alarm sounded.
I have not enabled google now - so it's not this.
any idea on how to switch this off?
Cheers
UPDATE: It's defenitely connected to the alarm. when I switch of the alarm, I do not get the notification in the morning.

***HERE'S HOW:***
Go to settings> applications> application manager...swipe over to "all"...scroll down to "weather daemon"> UNCHECK show notifications. DONE.
Thanks. Did that. Strangely it stopped happening even before.. No clue why. But now it's defenitely off
I been unchecked that for a while now but still getting Weather of the day popup everyday.
they are back .... no clue what this is about...
does anyone use the alarm clock and does NOT have the notifications in the morning?
What I did was add the weather widget to your home screen, then launch the app (only way to run the weather app...stupid) . Now click "More" in top right. Then there are 3 toggles to turn notifications on for the edge screen, lock screen & calendar. Turn them off.
I don't have any notification settings there.. it's more like "Show weatherinfo" and then edge screen, lock screen, s planner. But these don't have an effect.
btw. this morning.. no weather notification.. it seems completely random

you still can open Weather setting from Edge screen setting, also the way you show will not work because it different setting from the op ask, he asked about the notification popup everyday, the setting your show it to show the weather ON/OFF of all the time on Edge screen, lock screen or calendar.

Funny, but I am trying to find a way to enable it again.
Does anyone know what exactly makes/triggers morning weather notifications right after alarm sets in? I liked it but it went away for some reason and I am not sure what has changed/what I've have changed in between. I still use samsungs weather widget with manual updates as I did before. Tried setting up alarm with auto refresh but still the daily weather notification won't show up after the alarm is triggered.
Solution?
Has anyone figured this out yet? I like getting the daily weather in the notification drawer but for the last two days it seems to have stopped.
This morning I had set an alarm and cancelled it before it went off, that's the only thing different about today and I don't usually set an alarm. I don't think I set one for yesterday morning but don't believe I got the update then either. No idea what is different.
Will test again tomorrow morning without an alarm set.
Very annoying that there is no obvious setting for this.
New Phone
I have a brand new S6 now and just realised that there have been no weather notifications since I got it. And I'm not using any alarms and the notification options are all selected.
How on earth do I get them back?
The weather notifications work for me if I have an alarm and location services turned on.

Widgets not refreshing [MIUI Global 7.2.5.0] [Snapdragon]

This little problem is very annoying, I have a reddit and a twitter widget that will not refresh or update unless I manually open the respective applications, I also have a clock widget that has a random alarm notification for Friday 0:00, I have no alarms set that I can find.
I am using nova launcher prime, any help?
Thanks in advance
EDIT: Going into settings -> additional settings -> Battery -> Manage apps battery usage: then turning off the power saving mode seems to have fixed it.
EDIT2: Clock widget still showing seemingly random alarms. now it says there is an alarm for Friday 7:41pm
try the "files" app, theres a clean up at the bottom. after that is done there are a few new options like virus scan and also auto start. i'm on global beta and there is everything turned off by default. i did not even receive whatsapps properly until i turned it on there. a little hard to find for such an important option imo but the battery endurance was nice while you are nearly in plane mode D
Launch the widget app. Look at it in background mode. Swipe down. Unlock. I have seen others use this technique but lock it, mine was already locked so I unlocked and it started updating.

[APP] PaceOn v5.4 - Keep Pace/Stratos screen on, Lock Screen, Quick Switches & more

Sometimes, I just want my Aamzfit Pace to stay awake a bit longer, so I make this app.
PaceOn is designed specifically for Amazfit Pace to keep its screen on and unlocked as long as I want. It also works on Amazfit Stratos.
Surely, keeping the screen on affects the device's battery, but for whatever reason you may want it.
For me, it's quite useful when transferring files via wifi, needing to see some app screen details for a period of time or just always showing off that beautiful watchface.
This is the first app of my Pace(X) series (On, Off, Up & Down).
Disclaimer:
I am not responsible for any bad things caused by using this app, and blah, blah, blah.
Instruction:
Just sideload the app. Root is not required.
This can be done using ADB.
Here is how.
To uninstall:
adb uninstall com.anox.paceon
Features:
On/Off = PaceOn service keeping the watch awake and unlocked
The service can be automatically turned off on a selectable schedule.
Dim = Allow the screen to dim
Launcher = Launcher Service
Once activated, a small triangle area at the bottom left of the screen becomes a launcher area. The area is only visible on PaceOn screen, but active on any screen.
- Swipe up from the area (on any screen) launches PaceOn app.
- Double tap toggles PaceOn service on/off without opening the app.
- Swipe right to lock the screen.
- Swipe diagonally (roughly 45 degrees upward to the right) to bring up Quick Switch panel
Please see the last attached image for the instruction. The service will automatically turn on after booting, if the option was previously on before the boot.
Lock screen
The idea here is to have a transparent lock screen to protect the screen on from touches or taps. When this lock screen is on, the watch is still fully awake.
- To activate the lock screen, swipe right on Launcher area.
- To unlock, just double tap anywhere on the lock screen.
Return Home option
This is a workaround to the notification issue (raised by a few people). When receiving a new notification, the notification screen won't automatically be dismissed and another notification won't trigger a vibration. This can only be turned on, when both PaceOn & Launcher services are selected.
When this option is selected, it will have an effect only when the lock screen is on. After activating the lock screen, the watch will return to the home screen (from any screen) in every 30 seconds.
Bear in mind "this is supposed to consume more battery power."
Auto On... = Auto On When Charging option (off by default)
When turned on, PaceOn service is automatically activated when the watch is plugged into a power source, and deactivated when unplugging it. This option always keeps the screen fully on (not dim) to get rid of the system charging animation. This is designed to work only if PaceOn service is NOT already on.
How about a Pace as a desk clock
Quick Switch panel
- Swipe roughly 45 degrees upward to the right from Launcher area to bring up Quick Switch panel which contains:
1) Brightness Seekbar
Quickly set the screen brightness to any value from 0 to 255 or to Auto Mode.
2) Bluetooth switch
Now, the Bluetooth can be turned on/off at will.
3) WiFi switch
Yes, the wifi too can be turned on/off at will.
- To dismiss Quick Switch panel, just tap on the brightness number or swipe the panel away to the right.
These switches work independently of the system settings. They can even turn on when Airplane mode is on.
How about a quick glance to check if your bluetooth/wifi is on (just like your phone Status bar)
CXN svc. = Connection service
The Connection service improves the bluetooth/wifi connection visibility. It lets us know when bluetooth/wifi is connected/disconnected with a toast message and vibration (only vibration, when screen off). It also tells us what device/AP the watch is connected to/disconnected from.
The service will automatically turn on after booting, if the option was previously on before the boot.
Now, we always know what the bluetooth/wifi on our watch is up to.
Usage:
To enable PaceOn service (to keep the screen awake and unlocked)
- Open the app
- Tick []On/Off (Optionally, tick []Dim)
- To activate Launcher service, tick []Launcher
- Click OK. PaceOn service will start with a confirmation message.
- The app will then be put into the background.
- Then, do whatever you want. The screen will stay unlocked as long as PaceOn service is active.
While PaceOn service is active, the watch can be forced to sleep by pressing the power button from Home screen. Waking up the watch will also reactivate PaceOn service.
To turn PaceOn service off
If Launcher service is active, just Double tap on Launcher area.
If not, Open the app, de-select []On/Off and click OK. PaceOn service will stop with a confirmation message and the app exits.
To turn Launcher service on/off
- Open the app, toggle []Launcher and click OK. Launcher service will start/stop and the app exits.
Note:
- While the app's UI is in the foreground, the screen stays on.
- The app (any app for that matter) can be killed by Android system if the resources are needed. If killed, the "Keep Screen Unlocked" effect will also be lost.
- The app is free for personal use.

Bear in mind "this is supposed to consume more battery power."
Version 3.4
GUI changed
PaceOn now has many options, but I still want to have only one single screen, without scrolling. So, buttons are used to maximise the space. A button represents a service, while a checkbox represents an option in a service. The bottom part of the screen also has a new design.
Auto On When Charging option added (off by default)
When turned on, PaceOn service is automatically activated when the watch is plugged into a power source, and deactivated when unplugging it. This option always keeps the screen fully on (not dim) to get rid of the system charging animation.
How about a Pace as a desk clock
Version 4.0

When turning on PaceOn service, an off schedule can be selected to automatically turn off the service. The default is to turn it on forever.
Version 5.4
Settings now saved to the storage
All settings are saved to the storage before closing so that when the app opens the next time, all settings will be restored. This is so even after booting.
Auto-start after boot service changed
Launcher and CXN services each will automatically turn on after booting, if they were previously on before the boot.
Better handling of app closing
When the app is closed by clicking the OK button or pressing the Power button or swiping the app UI to the right, all settings are applied and saved to the storage.
Workaround to the issue of app UI appearing briefly when a notification arrives while charging
This issue can happen to any 3rd party app. It's kind of annoying to see. So, this version tries to avoid that.
If you like my work & want to buy me a cup of coffee or beer, I've just added a Paypal donation email to my profile.
Nice one, thanks.
I'll give it a try.
I'm with you one the wifi transfer thing.
Could really see this come handy

from what i saw till now, if I enable the "keep on the screen", the vibration is gone. the watch vibrates ONLY if I lock it via the button.

Thank you for your feedback.
I've been testing the app for a few days without any vibration issues. When the screen is kept on by the app, my usual apps such as Walk, Run, Alarm, Timer and notifications from phone vibrate normally.
Could you please explain a bit more on the vibration issue you have? Some specific app doesn't vibrate? Thanks.
i'm running a zuk z2 with Nougat on it, 7.1.2, and lost vibration with Gmail, whatsapp and facebook messenger applications.
update: noticed that there's no vibration on Tapatalk as well.

OK, I think I know what happens here.
With or without this app,
When a notification (from any app) is received, Amazfit Pace vibrates only in one of these cases:
1) the screen is locked OR
2) you are NOT on the notification screen.
So, while the screen is kept on (but unlocked) by the app, the device vibrates if you are NOT on the notification screen.
Say you're on the home screen (watchface). Then, a notification is received, the device will vibrate and show the notification. Now, you're on the notification screen, and you won't be taken back to the home screen as there is no screen timeout. If you don't manually navigate from the notification screen to another screen, another notification will not trigger a vibration.
I hope my explanation makes sense, and I don't think I can do anything with the app to improve this.
got it!
What did you use for the app to keep the whatch on?
I started with a GolfCaddy app and because the watch sleeps after a few seconds I don't get the gps satellites.
Thank a lot
wow! it's useful for me Thank you very much for your creation. :laugh::laugh:

BTW, a new improved and optimised version is coming this weekend.
A big thank you ! As a paramedic it will be very useful to check pulse (seconds), some suggestions to preserve battery :
- Implement an "HD Mode"/On motion as in the new watchface (unlock the screen/activate on wrist motion / background light on maybe ?)
- add an on/off widget on the launcher ? (Don't know if huami allows it) ?
- Lock the screen (unlock with a double tap) ?
Thanks again ! Really great addition to the watch !

I was talking about to behaviour of "Night Run" watchface (in pacefied and in 1.3.4f) : when locked, a wrist motion (motion when you watch the...watch) trigger the full color / resolution / seconds hand version of the watchface
With your app you could be able to implement that behaviour for every watchface ! An it will be very good for battery life (don't you want full version of a watchface when you see it ? not when you're watching anything else ?)
If we had tasker on mips, that's what I would try : (I'm not a developer unfortunately)
- Detect wrist motion -> autounlock the watch for a programmed time -> relock
Or
- detect "backlight on" or backlight level > 0 (triggered by motion wrist if enabled in settings) -> autounlock the watch for a programmed time -> relock
As a last suggestion, a simple configurable timer in seconds could be great (my case : every time I unlock I would like to see the seconds hand / NUM for a minute, time for me to check manually a heart rate / ventilatory rate of my patient then autolock), a sort of programmable autorelock !
For the lockscreen, can't you place an invisible overlay after returning on the watchface which could intercept touch, then capture only double tap as an event to disable that overlay ?
Again, Very useful, big thank ! Keep up !

I'm on 1.3.4f, there is Activate on Wrist option. When on, it just turns on the backlight for a few seconds, but doesn't wake the watch. So, you won't see the second hand. And, that works the same for all watchfaces.

I do see the importance of the watchface for you, but PaceOn is implemented to work universally with any app. What you can do now with PaceOn v1.0 is this:
- Open the app, activate "Screen On"
- Press Home (power) button to go Home,then press again to put the watch to sleep
- Whenever you need to take a heart rate reading, just wake the watch, After done, just put the watch back to sleep
I don't think the app consumes that much battery when the watch is asleep, though I've not actually measured it.
If we had tasker on mips, that's what I would try : (I'm not a developer unfortunately)
- Detect wrist motion -> autounlock the watch for a programmed time -> relock
Or
- detect "backlight on" or backlight level > 0 (triggered by motion wrist if enabled in settings) -> autounlock the watch for a programmed time -> relock
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yeah, my wish too.
Another thing is I have no idea what the system allows 3rd party apps do when the watch is asleep.

That'd be the idea, but like I mentioned this is a custom android on which I see some simple android functions don't even work. What I'm doing here is mostly guesswork, just trial & error.
Thanks for the comments. We'll see how this goes.
V1.5 is up.
Version 1.5 is up (OP updated)
Changelog:
UI changes
- Theme change
- Some wording changes (hopefully clearer)
- New icon
Toast notifications added
- Confirmed messages when starting/stopping the PaceOn service
Internal Improvement
- Better app instance handling
- More persistent, less likely to be killed by system
- Lower resource usage
- Optimised and smaller apk
Please note that APK installer doesn't seem to support this optimised apk (attached to OP), though it can be installed via adb as usual. In case that you already have PaceOn on your watch, the command will be "adb install -r anox.PaceOn.v1.5.apk"
The next version will include some new functionality.
thanks for this app....i really like it since it make easier to check anything without double tap or unlock via button.
anyway i find some issues :
the activate on wrist are not working if PaceOn are active
notification wont "minimize" if PaceOn are active
Baterry drain (but this is acceptable i think since the watch are always "on" without baterry saving mode.
if you could fix it would really great ( if not it's still great app )
but overall are superB app, really appreciate it.
information :
Im using English rom 1.3.4f
cheers

The system's activate on wrist works only when the watch is asleep. When PaceOn is active, the watch is awake. I may look into this when implementing a lockscreen for PaceOn.
notification wont "minimize" if PaceOn are active
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Right. It's the same reason. When PaceOn is active, the watch stays awake. So, the notification screen will stay on after receiving the notification. It has been discussed in post#6 . Once PaceOn has its own lockscreen, I'll try to improve this.
Baterry drain (but this is acceptable i think since the watch are always "on" without baterry saving mode.

PaceOn itself doesn't drain the battery (much), it's the screen on and the running apps while the watch is awake. When the watch is asleep, I find the battery consumed by PaceOn negligible. Everyone else who has measured the battery consumption may share their experience.
Thanks for the comments & stay tuned for the future versions.
BTW, another version is coming up tomorrow.
