Has anybody found out yet how to use the shoulder buttons? There is no settings option like for the led strip.
Did Nubia forget to include it in the Android 9 version?
For future reference: Enter game mode, pull down the quick settings bars. There is a new button to activate and map the shoulder buttons
I just did the switch from China to global and I'm trying to figure out where the trigger buttond are its different the China rom
Can't post a link. Go to YouTube and watch?v=vIrtHkrFC6c&t=699
I seen it in a video before but the global rom I'm on don't have it in the pull down when in game mode waiting for update
I wish I could disable them. When watching youtube if I touch them the screen controls come up making it difficult to hold the phone for youtube.
Yeah dog, you have to turn the Gameboost button on, then the option for mapping the shoulder buttons appears

Shoulder Button Issues
Hi my name is Scott, I just got my Mars today and I can't not find this drop down menu to map the Shoulder buttons. I've went in the device settings, game mode, pretty much anywhere I could think to look. I guess it's a US version, 8gb 126gig . Anyways any kind of help would be nice. I'm looking forward to any advice! Thanks

Once you enter into game mode by flipping the red switch on the left side you open the game you would like to play. Once in the game you want to play (only in gaming mode via the switch) you pull down your notification drop-down and you'll see a D-pad icon. Hit the icon and turn the button feature on via the switch at the top of the screen. Adjust your shoulder inputs to the proper location and click the X in the top right corner when your all set. That should be it.
I also have this issue with the buttons while watching YouTube. It also changes the way scrolling works on a web page, or document. Instead of swiping and it scrolling even after my finger leaves the screen, if I'm touching either of the shoulder buttons it stops the scrolling when I stop swiping. For the people saying the solution is to turn off game mode, you can't view YouTube, web pages or emails while in game mode (if you can I haven't found a way), this is a different problem.

Even when not in game mode. Open youtube and start a video playing full screen. Touch one of the buttons. It will cause the player controls to popup. They are still active.

That's odd then because I am also on the global and I do not have that issue. I have no access to shoulder buttons outside of game mode. You may want to try a factory reset...
I completed a factory reset, updated to the newest version, and factory reset again. Problem persists, not really sure what more I can do. It's annoying, but not a deal breaker. Otherwise I'm pretty happy with the phone.
This is gonna sound sad but since I don't actually USE those buttons I just covered them with some black painters tape and I'm hoping t get fixed in and update.
I had an update.. and somehow I got extra button beside L and R, it is T .. its is for fingerprint scanner... but i just got to feel the exprience once on pubg mobile. After i exit and launch for the second time, the T button is still there but its not functioning anymore.. does anyone know how to fix these? cause its very helpful to had that button useable again.
Does anyone know if you can use those shoulder buttons for other things besides gaming? Like map them to open an app or something?

Whenever I push my power button to pop up my Lock Screen, it usually takes about 1-2 seconds to react. (same with the home button actually - not so fast as the one on the iphone)
I removed the water effect and I also changed the unlocking mechanism to something else but nothing really helps. Still 1-2 seconds before my screen wakes up.
Is there any way to improve this wake up time? My Google Nexus One was faster, my brothers HTC sensation wakes up faster and my friends Galaxy Nexus and HTC one S wake up faster.
I want my Galaxy S3 to wake up faster aswell! Any tricks, tips?
The phone needs to wake up the modem first. It's a design flaw that can be found at least in the Galaxy S and S2, too. I'm not sure if there's a fix
I think this problem existed in earlier Galaxies as well.
All you have to do is to download Softlocker from the market

Do you use the stock launcher?
T.
you have to disable s-voice's double press of home button.
unlock your phone and launch s-voice.
press the left soft key (menu), settings will popup.
below the language untick the "launch s-voice".
that's it.

Unfortunately this is not work for everybody.
Still there is a delay on my phone, this is not rom nor s-voice related, I think this is samsung thing, I hope they give an attention to this wake up delay...

Someone have found any solution?
no, thats the way deep sleep works
hi guys,
im finding this slightly annoying .... made worse by the fact that the previous rom i was running had a fast wake mod, so this makes my current one seem even slower
try blackbox rom 1.3.1 from darksideagent site, and make sure to select fast wake mod in aroma
cheers

as mentioned by @marcel_miller above, softlocker simply disabled deep sleep and now it's just instant lock and unlock.

Hi guys, can someone explain to me two things sony said about new ICS on Sola:
1. Extended Lock Screen - what does that mean, it seams the same to me?
2. Resizable widgets - which ones are they, how to resize them?
Thanx
1. Extended Lock Screen - what does that mean, it seams the same to me?

This has to do with the 'Glove mode usage'. When glove mode is enabled, you can with your finger not touching the screen ( or glove ),unlock and use the phone as normal, without touching it. Floating touch throughout the OS, not just in the browser. And you have this circle to tell you where your finger is pointing. If you lock your phone, and unlock with the bare finger touching the screen, it switches back to normal mode ( even though glove mode is still on ). Lock again, and if you unlock with the finger in the air, glove mode is used
To sum up, when glove mode is on, you can use the lockscreen to switch between using glove mode, and normal touch mode. This helps, as you dont need to go to setting to turn it on and off. If glove mode is off, this doesn't work, which is self-explanatory
2. Resizable widgets - which ones are they, how to resize them?

Press and hold a widget in the homescreen. After you confirm it's place, you get 4 little diamonds on the borders. You can use these to extend it vertically and horizontally. I think it's a feature introduced in the ICS update itself.
DO correct me if I am wrong, or if I missed something. I'm a noob

Oi ! do not bump up old threads which isn't necessary and do not post irrelevant comments. Your Post has nothing to do with what OP Said.
Hey guys new to the site, and before I get started, I know I know there's such thing as a search button. I used it and didn't find exactly what I was looking for. So, the other night I tripped and got my Razr a little wet. It didn't get fully submerged but it did get a significant amount of water on it. I immediately turned it off and pulled my SIM and SD out. I dried those off and put the phone in a bag of rice for 2 full days. I took it out and put it on the charger and it charged right up. I then turned it on and it was acting a bit sketchy, the touchscreen wasn't working and the soft buttons weren't working and it kept restarting itself. I turned it off and let it charge fully. I turned it on and it was still all messed up. I put it in recovery mode and it didn't work so I factory reset it. It's bearable now but the touchscreen is a little iffy.
The main point is, are there any workarounds to where I can either have no unlock screen, or have my home, back, search and settings buttons on the home/lock screen, or does anyone know how to fix the soft buttons.
Thanks for bearing with me through this post.

I think the best path would be to use, on-screen controls if you are on stock rom, install pie launcher from play store,
else install paranoid android rom, or install Xposed module - Gravity Box.

Hey guys.
Just found this free app on the market. It's mostly for the ppl who are using custom roms that lost the ability to use Auto-on/off when you use a flip cover. This app is able to turn off/on the screen with light and/or proximity sensor. So whenever you close the lid, the light is gone, tablet notices and locks. Hope this works for you.

The app works though it leaves an annoying notification item in the tray. Is there a way to get the magnetic function function back? Would that be something cyanogenmod does or we would have to hax back?
Go to "System settings > Apps > Downloaded > IntelliCover 2.0 and then untick "Show notifications", no more notification icon. Hidden thru Android.
- Well, my Nexus 7 2012 had cover on/off built into the CM and AOKP's.. So I reckon once the devs find a way to do it, it will be implemented. As I have said before, I think that more ppl getting the GPE will help a lot on AOSP builds.. More devs, more source code from LG and so on.. I hope more people will pick up one or the other edition of the tablet over the Holidays. Basically, if the devs could do "teh hax", they would have by now I guess. ^^ I'm sure it will come at some point. I'm not very good at that stuff, so I wouldn't even know where to start, sadly. But it will be doable, I'm sure.
Okay lol, I can't use this in dark rooms and gets over sensitive in other cases but for now it will work fine. Thanks!

Lol, damn. I was wondering if it would mistake darkness for pitch black. :/ Well as you said, better than nothing I guess?
Works fine for me too except in very dark room. In this case, I just have to knock on the screen to wake up and it stay awake but it misss a light calibration.
Moreover, In the app, you can switch off Wifi at the same time the screen is off (and Wifi switch on when screen is on, off course) . It's very useful and battery saver I guess..

There is a calibration process for light senser but I I don't it. It says "put your device in your bag/pocket/cover and press the calibrate button above"
Hey dude, if my device is in my pocket or in its cover, I CAN'T press any button.
I tried to press the calibration button before close the cover but now it doesn't work anymore !
See for yourself! Any solution for this? Seller (which is a famous one) says there is no warranty!

The screen sensitivity or the constant audio feedback? From what I saw the plastic film was still on the front screen. That can be a factor but try to set it to home screen. This seems like a defect screen and you should definately fight your seller.

It appears to me that the phone is in Talkback mode. It's a mode so partially sighted people can use the phone, you'll need to double tap to make selections (the idea is that in this mode, you single tap to explore the screen and the phone reads out what you tapped so you then tap what you need to use), when you get though the setup, go to settings, accessibility and then turn talkback off.
Anyway like I said, you'll need to double tap to make your selections.
