[Q] Issues after getting HyDrOG3N 4.0.4 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey there everyone.
I have an issue after upgrading from 2.3.7 to HyDrOG3N's 4.0.4.
Previously, I was using some features of GO Launcher. Including the screenlock.
Now, after upgrading to 4.0.4, I realized I don't need GO Launcher as Android 4.0 gives a lot of the same features, so I removed it. But I still got this when I turn on the screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Any combination will work to open this screenlock, and I can't seem to manage to remove it!!!
I tried searching all options and settings.
Would appreciate some help.
Using only the rom, no additional launchers or screenlocks (unless it somehow passed with TitaniumBackup, I didn't find any)
Thanks!

Go into settings>security and change the screen lock, if that doesn't work you probably have to go back to 2.3.7 and remove the pattern lock and then install your new rom.

Thanks!

[Q] ICS Wallpaper Size Issue (Multiple Launchers)

Ok, I just flashed my first ICS Leak and love it.
The issue is, I want to use a Non-TouchWiz launcher since I want to use the folder options in ICS.
I am having an issue with the wallpapers.
Here is what it looks like in TouchWiz (which is what I am expecting):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Here is what it looks like in Nova Launcher (and I have tried Launcher Pro and AD EX and others):
I have tried every way I can to set the Wallpapers and have not been able to get it to look right in anything other than TW.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
you can download and use QuickPic to set your wallpaper, I had the same problem and i use this and has worked perfect every time

[Q] Lock Screen Settings Crash

Hi guys, a beginner here. I have a pressing question here. I run a GT-I9300 on Android 4.1.1 (just rooted). Not running any custom ROM at the moment. Kernel is 3.0.31 - 288630. Build number is XXDLJ1. Baseband is XDLI5.
The problem I have is that when I want to customise my Lock Screen setting (please see screen shot),
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
, it crashes and tells me "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped working." .
I have done Factory Reset TWICE haha and for a while, it works. Then, it reverts to type again. I only had this phone for 5 days now. I love the screen with Gorilla Glass and I can customise the Home & Lock Screen a lot (I used to have an iPhone 4) but the OS seems very unstable at this point of time.
Any advice would be much appreciated!
Try clearing the data of settings under settings->applications->all there is two things to do with settings clear the data of them both and then restart your phone. That's helped for me before.

[Q] HELP with ParanoidAndroid 3+!

device info:
Sony Ericsson Xperia J
model #: St26i
android version: 4.1.2
build: 11.2.A.0.21
unlocked bootloader + rooted.
Hi. Just recently flashed ParanoidAndroid 3+ on my phone. But I am having some issues with it. The biggest issue was It seems I can't access to HYBRID SETTINGS. When I tried to apply some settings, it says reboot, I reboot, after reboot, nothing changes, nothing happened. I wanted to change the size/resolution because its too small but its not working. I am having a hard time hitting the options due to small fonts/resolution. 2nd issue was I can't send SMS because it says service not available.. What's wrong with my phone?:s Did I do something wrong upon installation with ParanoidAndroid?
Here are some screenshots of what I have been takling about:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
it is not what i expect to look like. As you can see only the PA colors has a description.
see?its too small.
As you can see, the size setting is set to 0. which is too small. when i try to move the button to right to change size, it won't move :/
the system says, cant send SMS due to unavailable service..
I really hope someone would help me because Iwould really like to use ParanoidAndroid for my device :crying:

[Q] Settings app in phone mode?

My settings app have been in Phone UI since the 4.4.2 update (still on 4.4.4).
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Is there any way you can change it back to the tablet UI version (that was before 4.4.X updates).

It doesn't work well with Xperia firmware at the moment: it tries to use dark theme (I have to change the theme, since the default one is single-pane only. If I would use default one, the giant padding on left and right will be around each pane etc.), resulting in white text on white background.
Thanks for the replies,
But i do not have my tablet unlocked or rooted at this time.
Thanks anyway for the help.

Help hiding the VPN icon in Touchwiz

In stock Android previous to 5.0 the VPN icon appears as an annoying persistent key in the top left like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
After 5.0 they moved it as a system icon to the right and it can be turned off or adjusted.
It looks like this:
It seems like in Touchwiz they never updated this and the key is still on the left. Even if you're using 5.1.1 (I assume 6.0 will be the same.)
---
2 Questions:
1) Without rooting, is there a way to remove or hide that icon?
2) Is there a way to file a bug or ticket with Samsung to let them know to fix this in the new Touchwiz? Or some other way of contacting them?
1) Long press on the notification and see if you can disable the notifications there.
2) ha Good luck with that.
