Paranoid Android 3 screen calibration - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
Sorry for asking what is probably a very straight forward question but is the screen calibration feature of PA3 a built in sort of preset setting or is configurable? Its just that I can't see the settings anywhere...

Settings --> Scroll all the way down --> Hybrid properties --> Select options --> Want more? --> Swipe left--> More options.
For Pie settings
Settings --> Scroll all the way down --> Toolbars --> Scroll down

its built in. kernels are so diverse i really dont feel like stepping into that bucket trying to befriend them with one another. i think the way it should be is you get the kernel that you like and support your kernel developer. or get trickstermod instead. if you dont want to worry about this stuff at all but you do have an idea how your screen should look like, then try one of the stock-forked kernels i compiled: http://goo.im/devs/paranoidandroid/roms/mako
i personally think a kernel has to shut up and do its job, i dont want to think about it much. i use the contrasty revision. but you will know what fits you best.

I like how you are giving non-existant directions. There is nothing called "want more?" anywhere.

Oh, I'm sorry. If you have ti backup, try making the double tap home point to something you dont use like news, then freeze that app in ti.
Someone posted a way to make double tap home do anything you want by editting build.prop. Maybe you can tweak that to get it to do nothing.
Piece of cake!
How to do this, on froyo.
1) Download SQLite editor free from market.
2) Open it, and scroll down to the Storage Settings(the last one with: com.motorola.android.providers.settings) -> settings.db -> settings
4) Scroll down to double_tap(3rd from the end), edit record and change the value to empty!
100% tested/working!

[Q] N10 Menu Question

This may be a dumb question but I'm new to the N10 and tablets and can't find the answer.
How come sometimes I can't get a menu to come up? For instance when I am in my launcher (Nova right now but it was the same on chameleon and others) I can't get into the launcher settings. Nova has a out-of-date 3 dot menu button that works around it but other apps don't.
Also in eye in the sky weather I can't access settings to change from C to F for the units. On my phonemic just hit the menu button and I'm there.
I'm on rootbox if that helps but I ran into the same thing when I was on stock.
I'm sure this is user error on my part but any help would be appreciated.

Not sure about nova. But with eye in the sky, the menu button is in the top right on the action bar. Its using the 4.0+ api so the menu button doesn't appear.

This is driving me nuts...there must be something I'm missing. I have no menu in anything that should have one.

you did a full wipe when you installed?
Edit 1. I think I figured it out you need to go to aokp settings > General UI and make sure that Show Menu UI Overflow is checked then restart your tablet and it shoud reappear.

This'll enable it for sure- I did the same thing on Rootbox when I put it on my tab.

Be patient. Be sure to click "Thanks" when you are done.
System Settings --> ROM Control (the AOKP interface) --> General UI --> Display/Show Menu UI Overflow

I like to have HALO on the left and PIE Controls on the right. I use it with KTManta and a slight CPU underclock with GPU overclock, but then I also do a lot of video watching and games on it.
Um... Dark Rootbox looks nice, other than that, real tips, just read the changelogs before updating. Some don't really add much. If you have specific questions, feel free to ask. I use RootBox with Apex Launcher for added functionality.
i dont know what is it a luncher acctualy...

Its an alternative to the launcher program RootBox uses. I BELIEVE, but am not 100% sure, RB uses "Trebuchet". This one allows overlapping of widgets, extra app drawer tabs, stuff like that.

is there a way to remove/hide Ongoing Notification?

this is ridiculous!
all these Ongoing Notifications taking up the whole screen!
is there any framework or app able to remove or hide it?
I know 3Minit able to do it on galaxy s4.
I hate them. .. I'd love to know the same

Any help if you go to: Settings -->General --> Applications --> Choose an app --> uncheck "Show Notifications"
ps. Not exactly sure did I give correct names to menu, as my phone language is not english.
pss. You should get there also if you drop notification bar down and long press the notification --> It give something like App Info --> then uncheck "Show Notifications"

For some reason this does not persist after a reboot. Is this by design, or is it a bug? The toggle is switched off after a reboot, but the notifications are there anyways.
Root> go to es file explorer> delete or rename knox> reboot.
This is how I made it work on note 2.

It acts same way in my phone, so it looks like a bug, but it doesn't matter for me as I don't boot my phone so often it could get annoying..
If I need to re-check them once or twise a week, no big deal
Anyway I hope Samsung will fix it
Yep, it reverts after a reset.
An apology for bumping a thread older than my nephew, but has anyone found a non root method for 7.0 n. ??

LG G3 Has A Screen Mode

So I'm looking in the hidden menu with the Quick Shortcut Maker app and searched screen mode and what do you know its there. Standard, Vivid, and Natural. I cant tell the difference when switching but its there. Just sharing info...:good:
Cant find this mode on secret menu..
Sent from my LG-D855 using XDA Free mobile app
Hmm maybe this has something to do with the difference in whites between screens (blue tint vs yellow tint)

It's not in the secret menu. You have to go through the app mentioned in the first post. At least that's how I found it. Hope this helps.

As soon as you open the app it says input keyword. Type screen mode and the tap done. Settings pops up tap it and then you will see settings Screen Mode tap it then tap on Try and it pops up.
I've tried changing it but I don't seem to see a difference. Although it could be me since I'm not very into detail. Can anyone tell which is the best setting?
It's probably a feature that wasn't finished and left in incomplete. That's probably why there isn't a difference and it's hidden. They have that accessibility thing for color that they might have gone with instead.

I search for this with shortcut app and there is no "screen mode" on hidden menu or any other app in my phone.if I search for screen and mode there are options but not this one.
Which version and model are you running?
Mine is V10j for D855.
It is present in the Verizon 985 version, but does not seem to do anything.

It's hidden in the settings when you search for screen mode under the activities. Press the down arrow and a list will show, find the screen mode. Mine is V10i, SEA version. From what I see, they're all the same.
If you use an alternative launcher as in Nova you can get to the ScreenMode without installing any other app.
Simply press & hold on Home Screen, select Shortcuts, then from the list select Activities and scroll down to Settings (on my G3 it says there are 364 different settings to choose). Finally scroll through the list until you get to ScreenMode, tap on it and it will create a shortcut icon on your Home screen.
Tap on the icon and it launches ScreenMode.
Note: I didn't notice any differences with the choices available.
Same here no difference i am on v10H.
Nice find man. But I don't notice anything?
10j no difference.
My guess would be that they would add it with an update in the future.
Would actually be cool if you can have the option to make things more vibrant (not to say i'm not satisfied with the screen, but sometimes change can be nice)

I sure hope so. I hope it's not the opposite, where they disabled it, but forgot to remove the code. I'd like a more vivid screen as well. I played with the color options in accessibility, but the results are... Ehh....
