[Q] Urgent! Home Button Issue in Cyanogenmod 12.1 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I recently flashed cyanogenmod 12.1 to my Blackview Ultra by porting a cyanogenmod rom for the Holly U19. However, the home button isnt working. Whenever the home button is pressed, it highlights an option of whatever menu I am on. I would appreciate any insight on this.
Thank you!

I changed a setting and it allowed me to and no error message popped up.

Well then just change the two options I told you to in second post

How to turn off voice?

Hi.
From some rwason when I open a folder or preview my home screens a voice message plays the action I'm doing.
For instance if I open a folder I hear 'folder opened'.
How can I stop it?
I'm using S3 launcher and it wasn't like this yesterday.
Thanks

I did.
I even un-installed talkback with titanium but it's still playing voice commands when I open folders and such.
You seemed to have this problem with your new S3 launcher.
Try to change it to see if the problem remains.
I found out it has to do with Iphone notification app. When the app privileges are off, I don't have this issue.

Photo and Video Editor

Hello. Got my VZW Galaxy Note 2 on launch day. Really really liking it a lot.
Of course I went through and did the usual "disabling" of apps.
After doing that, I have since realized that the Gallery doesn't have a Photo Editor, not does it have a Video Editor. I was told these needed to be downloaded.
I thought I remembered disabling the Samsung App Store, but for the life of me I can't find it on my device.
I guess I'm looking for the actual name of the app, because maybe I'm looking for the wrong thing?? Or if someone has a link to download the Galaxy Note 2 Photo and Video Editors, that would be great too.
Thanks a lot.

I think I found it. "S Suggest" looks like where the apps are.
And you're right. Usually at the bottom. That's what had me so tripped up. Haha.
Anyways, still can't find the Photo Editor, nor the Movie Editor apps for the Note 2.
Anybody have any ideas/suggestions?

I had the same problem and havnt been able to solve the video one but the photo one I did. Just install the photo editor apk as a sideload app or you can just hold the button on the spen and longpress the screen. It will take a screenshot and let you draw on it.

I had them both on my s3. When I went through the play store they showed up under my apps on my n2 and when I went to install them they said not compatible with my device

OK - so I like the "editor" that comes up when you take a screenshot with the S-pen (hold button and long press the screen). How can I use that editor when I am in the gallery and use the "Advanced edit" menu item?
I installed the apk linked to earlier, and now the advanced edit menu gives me a choice of the linked apk and the Paper Artist app. Is the one that happens with the screenshot function an integrated part of the screenshot application??

Its a feature (that mind you doesn't cross platforms) that allows you to simulate writing on the back of your pictures to remember what they were or where they were taken, etc.

So you actually need the photo editor to be able to draw on a pic to like add a wig to someone or a missing tooth etc.. you cant just draw on a pic without the editor?

My experience is this. If I go into the gallery and open up a picture, I can then hit the menu button and I'm greeted with many options. If I choose However, "Draw on Image" only flips over the picture and lets me draw on the back, not what I want to do. If I scroll down and click on "Advanced Edit", I get the option of choosing either "Photo Editor" , or "Paper Artist". If I choose "Photo Editor", I get the popup message that says, " Photo Editor is not installed on the device. Download Photo Editor?" If I choose "Download", nothing happens. I've tried numerous times and the phone does not link me to the play store or any other app store to download Photo Editor. While I know I am able to sideload the apk, most new customers using the phone for the first time are going to be awfully frustrated when they want to do the one thing Samsung is pushing in their Lebron and family commercial here in the U.S. Not good.

How to launch an app that is in stealth mode?

Hi everyone. I recently downloaded gallery vault by thinkyeah and I like it because it doesn't appear on my phone at all except when you call using ##passcode. However I accidentally stopped the program that will open it using the ##passcode and now have no way of retrieving my hidden files. Any help would be great.
Now, when I call ##passcode my phone literally dials and calls it as opposed to automatically running the app.

If you stopped it when you reboot the phone must be working again.
You can uninstall it, the images are placed in .thinkyeah folder and stands there after uninstall.
Btw, the installed app is in data/app, but you can't launch from there.

its very easy .
Go in your phone settings, then chose lock screen/ security ( not sure if its the same words in the phone as I have my menu in french ((Ecran de Verrouillage / securité )) then go all the way down in that menu and open something like " Other security parameters" in french (( Autres parametres de securité))
then " administrator Peripheral " in french I have (( Administrateur de peripherique))
and there you will see a few apps, and you can chose Adminsitrator or not, your vault is in " green" make it Off ( grey color)
that's all

How to simulate screen tap with tasker

Hey everyone. I'm still pretty new to Tasker. I've only been actively using it for about 2-3 weeks. I think I've got a pretty good handle on it, but there's something I can't seem to figure out how to do. I know that by default, Android doesn't allow any app to modify another's notification in the pull-down menu but if I could get take to simulate a tap in the upper right corner where that button is to clear all notifications, wouldn't that do the trick? How so do you get take to do that? I read the was a shell command that you could run that was basically "input tap x-coords y-coords". Tried that but it didn't work. Any ideas?

run shell -> input tap x y
x y are the coordinates (activate them to show on screen in developer menu in settings)
is that what you've tried?
Yeah. And it didn't do anything. I even tried different coordinates thinking that maybe I was trying to use coordinated that were too close to the border or something

Finally figured it out. It was all in the details. I didn't use root and I also had the word 'Input' with a capital 'I' instead of lower case. I guess it has to be all lower case

Secret Code / Hidden Menu tester needed

Hi,
As you may know, you cannot enter the secret codes (e.g. *#0*#, *#0011#, *#27663368378#...) on a device that has not been enabled the HiddenMenu.
I need someone to help me to test if these codes work on your device by using my app: Shortcut Master.
Here is how:
- Install Shortcut Master app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.shortcutmaster.lite
- Go to menu 'Secret Code Explorer', select your desire code (e.g. 0*, 0011, 27663368378, 0228, etc...) and tap to launch it.
- You can select 'Launch 0' or 'Launch 1' to test if it work. 'Launch 0' requires ROOT access.
Please kindly test and feedback. Thanks.

Great, thank you for your response.
But do you know if your phone has been enabled the HiddenMenu?
Can you dial *#0*# on the phone's dialpad to see if this code works?
Please try also another codes (e.g. *#06# or *#0011#...) by dialing them on the phone's numpad?

I enabled it by going to efs/carrier/Hiddenmenu and changed OFF to On. You might want to add that to the OP along with making sure that ones ROM has the Hiddenmenu.apk in. As far as i know without this apk you can't access the menu.
Tried all 3 codes and they work.
Edit: Would you like me to change it back to OFF so you can see if your app works without enabling HiddenMenu?
Edit#2: Disable HiddenMenu by changing ON to Off and it worked. Came across some options that didn't. #2 and the last 3. I didn't run through all of them yet just at random. I'll update later on

With HiddenMenu set to OFF the codes will not work using the dial pad. Using Shortcut Master I'm able to access the HiddenMenus with the efs/carrier/HiddenMenu set to OFF and launch 0.

Yes, it needs root to launch the secret codes, it's due to Samsung's security policy.
To enable the HiddenMenu, you also need root...

For your convenience, you can download the shortcuts list files and import in to the app.

Hi,
just download it from Play Store and install it.
I am on NC5 stock rooted without modifying the etc file.
Using your apps, I can enter to the hidden menu, such as LCD Test menu (usually we do it by pressing *#0*# from dial pad).
Thank you,
very nice apps.
