Home Button, Back Action - Zuk Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi , i just get Zuk Z1, it comes with Cyanogenos 12.1-YOG4PAS2WM.
I think it's an old version, OTA ask me for update cm-ham-6c04a8f016 to 71d633df72.
I have read that in newest COS version the home button doesnt work as back button. It' true?
Can someone please confirm that this function still works?
And, last question... where i can find changelog of newest COS release?
Thank you so much

Yes, my home button losts its capacitive function when I updated the OS, right after taking the phone out of its box. I could never use this feature.
Unfortunately, there is no plan to fix it. Cyanogen team removed it on purpose and don't really care about us missing the feature. See here;
h t t p s://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/ZUK-7
(remove spaces, the board won't let me post url otherwise)

You can go to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3262388 if you want the home button swipe action fixed. Not sure if it restores capacitive home button though.

install (UNKNOWN SOURCES)non-market apps option is now available in settings!!!!!!

*FOR US DELL STREAK ONLY*
This works on stock 1.6, NO ROOT REQUIRED.
In the phone menu dial *#*#307#*#*.
something will flash on your screen for a split second
now you should be back @ the dialer screen.
go to your applications drawer(where all apps are located)
next to email app, you should see an app titled "EMList"
press on "EMList" app.
once the app opens scroll to the BOTTOM OF THE LIST
the very last option says APP_SECURITY.
press APP_SECURITY, then then turn on option to
'UPDATE UNKNOWN RESOURCE PROPERTY"
Press home button
Go to settings, Applications,
NOW LOOK @ YOUR TOP OPTION!!!!!
This worked for me as I downloaded swype from the website with no problems.
I have a US OFFICIAL DELL STREAK....let us know if this works for all models( UK & FROYO BUILDS)
You can unintall EMList now by dialing *#*#308#*#*. Power off device then turn back on, and Voila, its gone
Now everything is as it was before
Kudos to member xda member MONEYTOO for getting me into the EMLIst menu.
might want to add that this is for US at&t gimped streaks as not to confuse people
Yeah, I was going to change the title to reflect that, but it was too late. I have added it into the top of post, so hopefully that helps.
Isn't this option available on the Streaks on your side of the world already?
Will this really work without messing up the phone?
It has worked for me without any discovered flaws thus far....1hr.
I even removed the EMList app and the unknown sources options remained available in Setting menu. I restarted my phone to see if the option would still be availbale after a power down & its still there.
If you have any problems after perfoming this method, you could do it again and uncheck the option to enable the unknown sources.
Its your Streak, your Call. If I discovered any flaws, I would not have posted this. I appreciate my Streak & hard earned money used to purchase it. I assume everyone else does too, so I would not set out to harm people's Streaks......

lol eh? what do you mean it worked for you bud? uk streaks already have the "unknown sources" option by default.....
I followed your direction to a T. However, EMList does not uninstall when i press *#*#308#*#* .
Otherwise, the Unknown Sources option now works on my stock Dell Streak, which I confirmed by installing the Trillian beta.

Scratch my previous post. EMList did disappear. It's all good now.
This works great! Good find!!!
No problem, just helping U.S all out. Hopefully Dell doesn't patch this in the Froyo update.
This work great, I am still on the stock 1.6 on the USA streak.
Just loaded swype and all is good.
thank you
awesome find!
Adding this to the wiki!
Worked like a charm! Great find!!
Worked for me!
This worked for me. Thank you very much!
This worked for me. Thank you very much!

Thanks for the tip

Latest HTC Android 2.1 Version

Hi, once I got my HTC Hero yest, I did a software update automatically on the way home. Do I have the lastest update to my phone? I notice that I have a hard time pressing the "+ new message" for SMS, it does not do anything. Or even then I want to add a widget to the screen, I have a hard time pressing the widget icon, but no issues pressing Program, shortcuts, and folder, just the top most selection.
Same thing happens where It doesnt do anything when pressing the + icon to add a company for the HTC stocks widget
Is there a way to calabrate the screen?

Cant add Widget, but can add program, shortcuts and folders just fine, seems to be a sense issue for the top most "add" icon

Try doing a factory reset, maybe some of those 1's and 0's got lost in the ether.LOL! Of course everything that you've setup on the phone except for your sdcard will be erased. If you need to that Settings>PrivacyFactory Reset. Hope this solves the issue.

Man, you really should just spend a week or so messing with your phone instead of cluttering up the general section with questions that have all been answered or are easily answered by reading the guide that came with your phone. Not trying to be a ****, but Ive seen u start several threads here in the wrong section. Please use the search finction on the sight, and the user manual for your phone.

You're asking to get spammed.
This is a pubic forum that gets indexed.
Try looking at the Development section of the forum for AOSP or Dev Rom.
The software version that was on my sons hero I just rooted was
2.32.651.7 .Android version 2.1 update 1 . He got that update done at a Sprint store but the system update option under settings should give it to ya. His ran pretty smooth.

Screenshots in honeycomb?

Hello everyone,
Is there any sort of key combinations to take screenshots in honeycom without installing apps like previous galaxy tab version?
I found some screenshot apps in market, but they need root previleges.
This is applicable to the Asus Transformer, so it might work with the Samsung:

Thank you, Dave.
Unfortunatly that option is not available in the Android 3.0.1 bundled in 10.1v.
You can also use my app - its in the signature

Nope, that's part of TouchWiz.
If you prefer to use a stock ROM, you need a separate app.

[Guide] Newbie to Epic 4G Cyanogen - Common problems solved

Hello,
I am writing this to help other newbies who may want to switch to Cyanogen for the first time on their Epic 4G. There were a few things I needed to do after to get everything working the way I liked and I figure this will save some people time.
What do I need to do prior?
There are many how-to's which will help but I had my Epic stock rom rooted so it was as simple as flashing cyanogen through recovery. Here is the link for a "how-to" root the stock rom if you wish to do it this way. It was the easiest way for me though the official guide says "Rooting the stock firmware is neither recommended nor necessary."
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C9eaCtiS0Bo​
Where do I get Cyanogen?:
You can download it here. I am running the 10.0.0 stable build.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Epicmtd_Info​
I have no google apps:
This is a problem with any Cyanogen installation. Easy fix, download & install the gaaps package from the link below and your marketplace will be back.
http://goo.im/gapps​
I don’t have Navigation:
Easy fix again, download the google maps app. Here is the app store link.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DMsImNvbS5nb29nbGUuYW5kcm9pZC5hcHBzLm1hcHMiXQ..​
I don’t have voicemail:
While you can use any voicemail app I wanted the one I had on the stock rom. I linked the app below and your voicemail will be back as soon as you install it. You need to open the app after so that it will activate.
https://od.lk/d/MjRfMjc2MDY5MF8/vtt-sprint.apk​
I am getting texts from 9016 every time I get a voicemail:
From reading it seems the stock rom blocks us from seeing these but they are in fact needed for voicemail to work. To fix this I used a free app called “RedList”. Simply add 9016 to the RedList within the app, change the settings to disable both notifications, and this will problem will be solved. Here is the app store link.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5saW5ub3IuUmVkTGlzdCJd​
Text messages no longer have separate colors for me and my recipient:
The stock android text display is white and I hated this after getting used to Samsung’s nice colors but luckily you can solve this in two ways.
(One) A theme manager is built into the interface section of your settings page. After searching through almost every free CM10 theme I found this one I liked. It does NOT touch too many things only adding a brushed metal look and displaying text messages how I wanted them. There are a few colors to choose from but I went with Blue.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1992980
(Two) Replace only the MMS app with one that is color coded. Please note that unlike the above, to reverse this down the road you will need to find a stock mms app package with an installer. This is good for people who are sure they want this and only wish to change the colors of the messenger, while the above is good for people who like to switch themes often being able to revert back at any second. Link for the colored mms app.
http://www.mediafire.com/?hcjukwwkj4y41h3
Morror: https://od.lk/f/MjRfMjc2MDY5MV8​
Facebook pictures no longer sync with my existing contacts:
This is a small problem, but still one that I got used to having with the stock rom and wanted to correct. From reading this seems to be a problem related to later Android versions, not just Cyanogen. The fix for this is easy as well, search out a free app called “UberSync for Facebook”. I had the regular facebook app installed & logged in prior and UberSync logged right in, got the pictures, and updated my contacts.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDEsInJvLndlZWRuZXQuY29udGFjdHNzeW5jIl0.​
I no longer have Swype:
Despite having the nice physical keyboard (the whole reason I got the Epic) I still got used to using Swype here or there. I don't think I will be allowed to link this file here but you can find it on "certain" sites.​
Notes:
Despite reports that Bluetooth can be problematic, I use it daily with an earpiece and have yet to experience any issues. GPS & 4G also work great. If any links are broken send me a PM! I check my email daily.​

Why are they so bad? The bring you right to the download and I won't be deleting these files from my dropbox. Much better IMO than dealing with one of those sites where you have to wait 45 seconds for a download link to appear in a sea of other spam download buttons.

Well...
No MD5/SHA1 to compare against to make sure you have a complete download.
People's dropbox tends to get too much traffic and the link becomes dead.
You basically cut out the original author(s) of the file.
Based off # 3: They could need the ad revenue, and/or want to track download activity if they're self-hosting.

I know this isn't directed at me, but the things I have on my box account are older things( Samsung Moment update tool), things I've done for myself, or things that I've found for other people. In other words, things many people don't care about.

#1 - I think more people are concerned with a working link, if they download the archive after and it somehow gets corrupted i'm sure they will just try again
#2 - Valid point though my files don't have a great enough of demand to warrant this. If this changes I will change my links.
#3 The only thing that wasn't mine with a dropbox link was the MMS app and I only mirrored it in case the original link were ever taken down. If it will make you happy I can include the original link as well. For the voice mail app, its simply the sprint one ripped from a stock rom.
Though your points are valid, I think you are sort of just being picky bud
Thanks for the VM download link. Only thing I want is task manager which I had installed on CM9. Is there stockish one that works for 10?

swype
I reinstalled swype 3 or 4 times with various upgrades and it would always "expire" and I'd have to figure out how to get it working again. I am running 10.1 RC5 now and it has a decent generic swype-ish virtual keyboard. The thing missing is that you can't finish your text and go back and fix any misspelled words by touching alternate suggestions. You have to catch them as they come up. It seems like at first I could still do that, but I can't figure out how to get the suggestions to come back up.
I'm over swype.

You need a different Kernel. I have been using didy's kernel for a while. You flash CM10.1 and then you flash the kernel. CM10.1 has its own kernel that overwrites what you flash. So when you update, i think you have to reflash the kernel. I haven't screwed around with it since I installed rc5. I think I did CM, then the kernel, then the big mem patch. I never was able to figure out how to update the radio. I always ended up with "no voice service" or worse.
There is a thread in the developer forum that has the links to the kernel downloads. I am running one from may 30 and haven't updated.

[KERNEL][CM10.1]Nitest Kernel for Crespo4G/Epic4G Modem with Voodoo Sound&Color
When you say you couldn't update the radio, you just mean the cell service radio, right? Not wifi? I don't have cell service on my Epic, so that wouldn't be a problem for me... just as long as the wifi radio still works
Also, what specifically do you mean by "or worse"?

Yeah. That's the one. I looked at my about phone and it said "didy".
I saw a thread about the nexus radio being hot **** and I fooled around with it. I got either "no voice service" or no nuthin. I was able to flash back to the regular epic radio. there is another thread that had all the flashable zips with different modems. luckily the epic one undid my stupidity - at least on my phone.

Thanks man, I'll give it a shot. CM10.1 is running pretty smoothly on my phone, but it could be better and battery life is not an issue for me.
I'll be sure to run backups before I do though :good:
Thanks
These tips helped - I just made the jump to CM 10.1, and although there are a few quirks it has been great. Your list really helped.
FYI, one thing I ran into was the auto-rotate didn't work. I followed the directions here:
http://epiccm.blogspot.com/2012/01/boot-el30-stock-from-sdcard.html
the first time, there was no change. I tried again (and calibrated like 6 times) and it worked.
Has anyone noticed the physical keyboard doesn't always work the same? In some places, you have to hold down shift or Fn while pressing the key you want (for example - hold shift while pressing A, rather then pressing shift then pressing A). It's not consistent - some inputs work like the keyboard did before. Does anyone have any suggestions how to fix this. Not the worst thing (I'm just glad I still have a physical keyboard), but I would prefer it work the way it did before, or if that's not possible, at least be consistent.
And the smiley face button on the physical keyboard doesn't work either. I mean, it's like 2005 where I have to type out my 's!!

I have noticed that the physical keyboard doesn't work right in the browser. Shift and Fn don't seem to work. I am usually in such a hurry that I just close it up and use the virtual keyboard if I want to have punctuation. It honestly didn't occur to me that it might be fixed. I can't offer that fix. I am just offering emotional support and validation.:good:

I noticed that the default browser you have to hold the shift or fn key while pressing the desired key to get it to work. Apps and os seem to work with a tap od these keys and then a hit of the desired key.I recall a while back a thread about the smiley and since it was not a default key the consensus was that they would not be adding the functionality to cm. While on the topic...same goes with the .com function.

Mobile Data shortcut, updates.

Hi.
I don't know if I'm in the right place because I'm in canada and have the 900w8 (with Wind/Freedom) but anyway, just bought my Note 3 recently and I see no Mobile Data shortcut on the Notification panel and it seems this was a common problem after some update and I couldn't find any fixes for this. Also, the phone has Android version 5, which I know isn't the latest version but looks like there will be no updates for us.
So, any way I can get the Data shortcut, or maybe the android 6 version? My phone is stock everything.
Thanks.

I am surprised that it does not show

Best I can tell you is to flash with Odin stock 5.0, but other than that, I do not know how you could fix it. Or just root it and try a custom ROM if that is something so important to you.
Thanks again for the reply and the suggestions, man. Yeah I don't know why this is happening with the Note 3s but like I said this was a common problem after some update. I've never rooted or flashed any phone and I don't know if I want to do this. So, looks like I have to live with this inconvenience. It also looks like I won't be able to swipe down to access shortcuts unless I unlock the screen. On my Moto E (Android 6) I'm able to do that without having to unlock the screen. That's another inconvenience.

Is that the case? I am not on stock anymore, but I think I remember it was possible if I just had the lockscreen to "swipe".
But then again, it could be a difference between Android 5 and 6
Flashing is an intimidating task and requires a lot of research but not as much as you may think.
Anyway, I'm not going to grind on that suggestion. Best I can tell you now is, enjoy your Note 3 experience

Yeah I guess I'm stuck with what I have for now (no Data shortcut and no swiping with locked screen) but I don't know why I can't get an update (Android 6) for the Note 3.
Thanks anyways for the reply.
