Nokia 6.1 double tap to lock? - Nokia 6.1 (2018) Questions & Answers

As posts below
https://nokiapoweruser.com/nokia-6-2018-got-double-tap-lock-feature-oreo-update/
Any owner are any this feature?

Nothing like that in my settings.

No such setting on my TA-1068 version with Oreo 8.1.0

I have it on TA-1054 Android 7.1.

That's the Chinese version of the Nokia 6.1 and it has many software tweaks/customization all over, but the quality of the apps are not that good to my experience, coz recently in a thread here on xda a member posted stock apps from the Chinese version of Nokia 6.1 and I tested 2 apps on my Nokia 6.1 TA-1089 (file manager and gallery) and both the apps performed poorly. *The gallery app was laggy and the file manager behaved strangely it asked for 3 permission to storage, contacts, phone I had only given it the storage permission and within a minute it started stattering on my screen and became totally unusable, afterwards given all the 3 permissions it worked fine *again when I tried to delete the stock Chinese gallery apk from it, didn't allow me to do so but I could delete everything else. So some crazy 10 minutes of experience with the app and finally uninstalled and deleted both apps!

Simply install nova launcher and enable double tap to screen off . I am using the same and jt works flawlessly

[Q] can I install market manually?

I'd like to buy this tablet, but I found there's no market app and I have the installation .apk file extracted from nexus one.
Can I install this market in order to get other applications from there?

I read that, but I'd wait until the 14 days trial is over, so I have to be sure the .apk manual install works before installing update.
I have the Elocity A7 but since it lacks a true capacitive multi-touch screen i bought this tablet http://www.brandsdragon.com/products/product_30627.htm just to play around with. Its only $153 shipped to the US.

Installing apks manually works fine. Some apps still won't work, but in general, it works fine. But you won't be able to install just the market (vending.apk) without most of what Dexter has put in his ElocityMod.

Actually, I already have another tablet purchased for $180. It has Android Market but I couldn't find slingplayer, so I have to extract it from rooted XT720 and install, but soon I found the video quality is poor (slow), so I am wondering will A7 work with slingplayer.
Even it doesn't have Market, I can extract the apps from rooted nexus one and XT720 and "side load" them.
MARKET INSTALLED AND WORKING on eLocity A7!
HELLO,
I just got my a7 yesterday after purchasing a archos 70 (250gb) and bricking it in about 25 minutes trying to install android market i returned it and picked up thiS tablet. although it doest have multi touch, and anywhere near as big of a hard drive i still am happy that i went with this. It runs much faster than the archos and i love having the option of using my memory stick with it. What i hate is it cant be pluged directly to my pc and copy files over that way, and that pinch to zoom doesnt work properly since this doesnt have a real multitouch capacitive screen. If i wasnt able to get market capabilities i would not have kept the device and to be honest i still might return it within my 30 days and pick up somthing else.
to get Market and google aps installed i recomend using Dexters Mod (available at dext3r.komodin.org or you can search for him here on xda). It is real simple to use. here is quick rundown in a few short steps on how i did it.
1. download 'ElocityMod v1.0c.rar' to your pc
2. rename the 'ElocityMod v1.0c' to 'update.rar'
3. copy 'update.rar' from your pc to my memory stick (or you can use a micro sd card)
4. insert memory stick into elocity a7
5. go to 'settings' - 'about device' - 'System updates' - 'Update device'
6. it update using dexters mod and gave me market capabilities as well as the android layout i am accustomed to without elocitys crapy UI.
Now, as for apps, i havent had any aps that did not work yet on my a7. I am currently runing ADW Home, google voice (cant make calles but lets me SMS), youtube, xda-dvelopers forum app, avg antivirus (freee), aBTC, and WinAmp and all work fine so far. I have seen many posts complaining tha they are having issues with runing apps not made for the A7 but i am yet to run into any issues.
I WOULD LIKE TO THANK DEXTER FOR ALL HIS HARD WORK! DONT KNOW WHAT I WOULD HAVE DONE WITHOUT HIS MOD FILE!

the cpu doesn't compare to the tegra2. it doesn't seem to have accelerometer. i wouldn't go for one of these. a couple months ago, i went for a cheap $120 7" tablet from a no name in china - total junk. then i decided to get the elocity a7. i'm pleased with it now, except for the screen... now i'm thinking i should have just went with galaxy tab... if only galaxy tab had their next gen (dual core) processor in it...
edit: btw, i just noticed this question is off topic and shouldn't be in this thread

I am new at this. I am trying to get the Android market on mu eLocity A7. I down loaded the file per your directionin the thread and the file I down loaded is "ElocityModv10c.zip". Your instructions in your thread say to rename the file .rar. I tried running the .zip file but it would not run. Does your instruction refer to renaming the zip file from ElocityModv10c.zip to ElocityModv10c.rar? Please advise what I am doing wrong

First, the latest one is the ElocityMod v1.1. That is what you want to install.
Second, the "ElocityModv11.zip" should be renamed "Update.zip".
it is all right here:

I did as you suggested and everything loaded correctly. However, when it did a reboot, it simply cycles the elocity logo every 6-7 seconds. Any suggestions?

Hold the power button fot 12 to 15 seconds to power of the device. Then turn it back on.
If that dosen't clear you issue try Booting into recovery and select "wipe data/factory reset", then reboot.
I like the cheap price

Did you get this tablet yet?
It seems like they might be falsifying information on the site. The linked tablet has a Telechips TCC8902 which doesn't have a 2.2 (Froyo) out on any of the mainstream tablets with that same chip i.e. Gentouch 78 and the Coby Kyros, they both have 2.1 (Eclair.) The touchscreen is resistive and NOT capacitive so, I'm not sure about multitouch. Also, the TCC8902 chip has GL issues so 3D games like Angry birds, Aslphalt5, and others with have graphics issues.
I owned a Coby Kyros which has pretty much the same hardware and returned it simply becasue of the graphics issues and got the eLocity A7.
Elocity A7 - Requested item could not be found
Hi,
I have applied Dexter's mods since 1.0 and they have made my Elocity A7 a wonderfully usable tablet. Otherwise it was more of a $299.00 door stop
All kidding aside, thanks Dexter. But since applying the 1.4 mod, the market place is not allowing me install apps that were available previously. I've been reading for solutions but not finding anything yet.
Has anyone else found this problem and a way to fix it?
Thanks
In these cases specifics like which apps might be very helpful.
Hi,
First a correction, mod 1.41 with display patch. The following apps will not install for example:
Dolphin Browser HD
SliceIt
Adobe Flash Player 10.2 hulu fix
Voice Search
There are more but I cannot recall them all. I was able to load these from backups but would like to know what has changed to cause the new problem.
I can tell you that I had backed out 1.3 and restored to 1.2 so was using the older version of market. Wondering if the new version is not happy with Elolcity?
I have sendlog outut if anyone wants it.

Samsung Messaging has a crappy theme but it's superior to the stock Messaging app.

Superior in what way?
Thanks a lot!
The standard samsung app is better than stock but graphically deviates too much from holo.
I immediately downloaded the application that you have shown me, but unfortunately doesn't work ... After having opened app it crashes.
In particular, he shows me the list of all messages (distinguishing read from unread) but when I try to go into a conversation stops everything.
I use GoLauncherEx on Samsung official 4.0.3 rom. When the application crashes, even golauncher crashes! For a few seconds the screen is all black (it show me only tray bar)!
I know that GoLauncherEx isn't optimized for ics but is the only launcher that lets me create folders in the program list (I have much application and I need it!).
Actually ICS isn't very stable on my device and I'm almost regretting gingerbread!
I can do anything about it?
Thanks again for your support,
I hope one day I'd help forum people.

That is very strange. Which firmware did you install? I installed XEO (polish version) and didn't get a single crash or problem what so ever. I had a few problems in rooting it, though (needed to wipe it first and re-flash the orginial ICS firmware before rooting to get the root rights recognized). But once that got fixed, everything was and still is perfect.
Or maybe it is because of the go launcher ex? I was using TW the entire afternoon (13.03) without crashes. At night I installed Apex launcher as system launcher and no crashes either (one day running), very low battery consumption and awesome looks. You can add the ICS Theme Pack from kovdev to get the ICS icons.
Hello element!
I've installed the XEO firmware, then polish, just like you.
I have not done the wipe but updated via OTA.
I had already installed GoLauncher. When I've upgraded I've selected Golauncher instead of Tw.
Currently I have encountered frequent application crashes and one total block of the system. The battery, to be honest, I can not tell if it lasts more than gingerbread why I used the phone a lot for various customizations.
I do not know if the problem is that I did not do a wipe.
If he continues to give me problems I do a backup. After I install the rom again.
Tonight I remove the battery and after power on. Tomorrow, we'll update on my test.
PS The biggest problem is GoSmsPro. it sends multiple messages at one time. If I send you a message, you will receive two. I do not know how to solve.
PS2 The root I did with Odin and had no problems ...
Thanks for the help,
Hello!
As I promised you I a write updates.
I solved the problem of low stability: I made a deepclean and then installed applications without syncing (I installed all the applications manually).
Now I have one problem, the phone crashes when I try to change the background. If you have any idea: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23727272#post23727272
For the rest new rom does not seem bad ...

Hey, check it out: One so called Tim Hutt put the stock calendar, messaging, and launcher app in the market and they all work just fine for me. The apps are called "Android 4 ICS Messaging SMS", "Android 4 ICS Calendar", and "Android 4 ICS Launcher".
The only bug I have (and it's not a big one) is that the screen doesn't light up when you receive a text message... Perhaps this is because I disabled/removed the official Samsung messaging services though... If you leave the default services enabled, then the screen lights up like normal but you have to select a setting in the ICS messaging app to disable the message receiver because then both the Samsung app and the ICS app will both write the text message to the database and you'll have duplicate incoming messages. Just go to settings and scroll to the very bottom to see what I mean... Enable that option if you don't remove the Samsung services/apps.

Kitkat questions, Liquid Smooth on S3 T999V

Hey guys I recently installed Liquid Smooth Kitkat (see below for version) on my Wind Mobile S3 T999V
Needless to say, switching from JB 4.3 stock I notice massive performance increase. Rom is a nightly but seems very stable, camera works, even tried skype without issues. I love it! I have a few questions about kitkat though:
1. I am not able to install additional languages is this a known issue? I am able to change default to say russian and then I have a little globe show by the keyboard to change to latin but no spacebar swipe that I used to have.
2. I am not able to add contacts to phone's local storage, it only goes to google account, which is very irritating, after I imported my contacts now google has access to all my contacts and it sucked out FB contacts too :_(((
Any one know of a way to store contacts locally so I can delete google contacts?
Thank you!
Also thanks to Liquid Smooth team, for helping reinvent my phone )

CWM 6.0.4.5 Touch
1. You could try other Keyboard Apps from Playstore if need be. Swiftkey seems a choice.
2. This is default Android behavior. You can also switch to storing on the Sim Card if needed.
Custom Ringtone/Notification
Hi Thought I would post my liquidsmooth issue here as well.
I select a mp3 to use as a ringtone by going to settings -->sound and select es file explorer to find the mp3. Doing this does not seem to change the sounds for long and not for all apps with the notifications.
I end up having to go into each app (ex. email and going to the sound settings in the app and selecting the mp3)
This is only a temporary fix however as when I reboot the setting for ringtone and notification look like gibberish or have a unknown name and the the default ringtones and sounds play.
Not sure if this is a es explorer problem or something with liquid.
On build 4-6
Thanks in advance
was able to add languages
Just wanted to update everyone that I was finally able to add a language (UI is a bit tricky)
You have to go into Android Keyboard Settings (AOSP) for english
then touch Input language and uncheck "Use system language"
then check languages you want.
it doesn't allow for swipe but you can press and hold on the space bar to get this to work, it's usable
Cheers,
As for the contacts issue, still researching but wasn't able to find a solution yet.
GPS Issues anyone?
Update 2:
I let the OTE updater update the rom to 2014-04-09 and it went very smooth.
So far Rom is pretty solid, I love the notifications that pop on locked screen and can be deleted without unlock. awesome.
Have had some issues with GPS using RunKeeper app, it seems to hang in the middle of a hike. I updated to latest RunKeeper today will try again.
Let me know if you're on the same rom have any GPS issues.

HTC One M8 InsertCoin problems

I am not sure if this is a personal issue or a ROM issue.
But I've noticed over time with InsertCoin, some features have gotten worse, but I am not sure if they were removed or if they are optional now (as in go and download them yourself)
I can't even test this theory because for some reason, my InsertCoin Market app crashes every single time I open it instantaneously.
And the feature that I really want to have are two things..
Change my lockscreen default apps that I can open, such as GoSMS instead of default messaging, and put email on the front instead of camera.
And the other feature was on the extreme power saving mode, I also want to replace the default messaging app with GoSMS, this used to be a feature but I can't find it anywhere anymore. It's not in the Kontrol either.
Any help with fixing my InsertCoin problems would be great, especially the instant market crashing.

Have you tried updating the ROM? Is it stock android or sense? Try going Settings>Wireless & Networks>More>Default SMS app
I have the latest version of the ROM, and there isn't any "update" buttons or anywhere built in that I can even check to see if there is a newer version out.
