[Q] It's the simple things ...... topic

Hello all - Mr. TechDunce, UK here .... :eek:
Seriously, I am of a generation that struggles valiantly to cope with IT, and is looked at pityingly by offspring with the odd comment that "well, you do try, Dad " and " well, you usually get there in the end...." !

Which is about right I suppose ! He also tries to sort me out, but is a way away, so not always on tap .... :o

However, having succumbed to the delights of the Tab S 10.5 (white, 16g, 128micro card) following an intensive "WHICH" test and review (which gave it the edge over ipad-ery), I am struggling a bit with some simple features - but love the tablet itself, a delight to use, superb picture, very long-lived battery life, excellent response etc...., easy on the eye, and nice to hold.
In short, I'm generally thrilled with it .

But a few things beat me, the main annoyance being I can't figure how to simply bookmark a site/page for easy reference - i.e. how to do it, and then how to access it when needed.
For now, it's my biggest bugbear, but if anyone can help with this, I'll master that before exposing my ignorance any more just yet - I do prefer to find out for myself, but this has me flummoxed !
Here's hoping a kindly soul takes pity on me ..... :rolleyes:

Cool things you didn't know about. Note 4 Edition topic

Threads like this are well known in other forums such as Nexus, Sony, HTC etc (even in other forums like gtaforums, etc)
The goal of this is to post these little features or curiosities that makes our lifes a bit easier while using the Note 4.
I will start:

-If you recive a priority notification such as Whatsapp, SMS, lost call or an e-mail, if you pick up your device while is standing in a flat surface (a table, for example) and the screen is turned off, the phone will make two soft vibrations, remembering you to turn on the screen and view these notifications. (Kitkat and Lollipop)


Feel free to post your contributions to this thread and help people to enable these features if they ask.
Cheers!

Lollipop: New things you can do topic

I'd like to collect cool stuff we can do on Lollipop which lately came to most variants.
If you have a suggestion I'll consider taking it into this first post and give you proper credit :)


1. Camera API allowing for RAW shots and "real" camera apps that can pre-proccess the raw image data!
https://github.com/PkmX/lcamera - Probably not yet compatible, but it seems to be the first developer to built a RAW camera app.

2. Extended Notifications on Lockscreen
Go to Settings > Sounds and notifications > While locked: and then select either "Show all content" or "Hide sensitive content" to have extended notifications on the lockscreen

3. Seeing approximation of when you're battery will be empty
Lollipop visually plots a graph with a prediction on when your battery will be empty

4. Search through your settings
In case you didn't notice, your settings screen has a search button now ;)

Things missing and not working in Lolipop Roms..... topic

So I recently got my LG G3 and love it. I immediately rooted and flashed a Lolipop rom. I am making this thread in hopes of figuring out a few features that I am missing or someone else has already discovered.

1. How do you get the long button press on the back button to kill apps (I have it enabled in developer console but it does nothing. Tried a few 3rd party apps too. Still nothing)
2. Has anyone created or modified the xposed framwork to work on lolipop yet?
3. Is there a way to have a hard button for the camera built into the rom? (Currently now I have a app that allows me to bind it. I have it set to double tapping the down button to open the camera)

Thanks,
Alan

The "Photo Catalog" helps to solve the common problem of searching the packaged for keeping items such as shoes, clothes, tools, craft items, toys, dishes, etc. Сreate the base cards, fill in the cards with photos of items, their storage places and descriptions. You will find any items easily in the house with the help of a visual display cards.

You will not think of system of storage any longer. Now search of the shoes for suitable dress or sneakers for run, is only the choice of description from the card and view of photos. All what you need is to create a card, fill in it with photos of the objects, storage places, as well as their descriptions.

People created paper catalogs for a long time, but now you can make your own catalog on your mobile device. The mobile electronic organizer will always be with you.

"Photo Catalog" helps you:

-to always know where your shoes, clothes, tools, thread, dishes are placed, without looking at the boxes, wardrobes and dresser.
- to create cards with reading of gas/water/electricity meter, you can add their date in the description for a quick search.

- to add in the list any names, sizes, colors, descriptions, materials, date or any other characteristics of your items.

- to create a database without restrictions, to photograph and describe any objects, which make the difficulty in their search. All new descriptions are saved in the drop-down lists for easy search.

"Photo Catalog" is the best electronic organizer for storage of shoes, clothes, and other items.
