Hello everyone.
I've been busy studying for my CIEs. And I'll soon be free from my exams. So I want to know what Nokia X users out there want for their devices?
I mean any type of MOD which you might want. Or a third party app. Or any stuff like that.
Comment with your ideas below and let's see what our brilliant devs can help you with.
- a way to dismiss the blue notification bar on top
- native file manager app
- option to uninstall mobile broadcast since not many countries are using it. hey,it's the first time I ever seen it in a phone.
- is autofocus possible?
thanks. :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
Android 4.4
auto focus
4.4.x
Well, if you wanna know what i want (perhaps all of you are in the same opinion with me) at least some of these minuses can be resolve and we can be use them as default on our X device, such as:
Flash player
Live Wallpapers
WMV Codec
VP8 video coded
WebP image coded
I hope devs will do that by create stable, and smooth costom rom. :angel:
I love my Nokia X and it's very sad if my device couldn't be as great as other androids.

1. The blue notification bar is currently with stock rom. However, if you flash CM 11 or other custom ROMs, you'll have the original android bar.
2. Which file manager do you want? Name it and I'll provide.
3. You can do that by simply, going into system-->app and deleting the Mobile Broadcasting app. (Requires Root).
4. I'm sorry that won't be possible as it's a hardware setback.

That's already out I believe. Check out CM 11 in the Nokia X Android Development section.

I believe the developer is already working hard on it. So why don't you wait a few days and let's see if he can deliver?
He even says he's working on a new kernel for the Nokia X. Exciting. No?
Users who wanted to change their notifications bar, check this out. Maybe it'll help: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.calsto.statusbar.jb

1. I just want a way to dismiss it. I dont want my nokia X to look like vanilla android. it would be pointless to have nokia X if I uses vanilla android theme
2. does nokia X have its own file manager? :laugh: seeing brand name on an app drives my mind mad. ASTRO,ES, and all that
3. I dont want to root yet. not just to delete some apps.
4. cant do anything about that,then.

Our dev, David Cruz is working on that and he shall soon have it plus a custom kernel. So stay tuned.
Hi,
do you know if the team actually works on a ROM for the Pixel C device?
Remix OS was announced for the Pixel C and both Nexus devices (which now received a ROM).
So I just would like to have a small status update aka cancelled/working on it
Thank you
Thanks for this question. I'm wondering the same thing.
No answer in 3 days.
Now does this point to a lack of communication between Jide and its customers, or do they simply not care about the users?
Because there are clearly some Jide employees who read this subforum.
Very interested by this question too
Thanks for this question !
Pixel C with its large screen could be great with Remix OS.
The Pixel C launched with 6.0.1. REMIX OS is on 5.1. How exactly were you guys expecting to have the rom out now? It will be out when remix OS is based on a version of android that the pixel C has source code for.

We don't expect a rom to be out but instead an official statement about general plans regarding compatibility to the Pixel C

it will have the ROM after the switch to marshmallow.
Maybe now that 3.0 is out for PC and we know Remix is making the Marshmallow jump there'll be some movement. I won't hold my breath though. C'mon Jide! Please give this to us!

Yeaii
I will try installing it on the weekend and will report back how it worked
So far it's pretty decent. I installed after figuring out how to unlock the bootloader first (something you should update in your instructions). First impressions: I'm not sure why I can't drag from the menu to the desktop and I can't remove icons from the desktop (only uninstall them) this is just weird. Furthermore, I can't ping icons to the taskbar at the bottom (this would be super useful even if limited to 1-2 apps.
Also, way too much wasted room on the desktop, huge padding on the left and right which should be accounted for.
Overall, very cool
A few issues.
When installing the Google keyboard it soft reboots the tablet first try, then installs properly.
It takes a little too long for the tablet to recognize that it's either charging or not charging. I unplugged my pixel c to write this and it still thinks it's charging.

Agreed. You can't drag from the menu to the desktop because the desktop is combined with the launcher. There is no app drawer, it's basically like the iOS desktop. It would be cool if they would let you pin icons on the taskbar instead of just showing what's open.

You actually can pin apps to the taskbar by long pressing an app from the menu/app drawer and dragging it to the taskbar.
I also think that having every app icon on the desktop is overkill. It would be better to keep the apps contained to the menu and let us choose which ones to place on the desktop (like with the Google Now Launcher).
I'm hoping someone can help me. I've followed both links in this thread for how to instructions. The first takes me to the help site where, no matter how I word my search, I get no useful links. The second link is to the 'how to install Remix on a PC'.
Could someone help me out with the link on how to install on an Android tablet, please.
I've tried google search with various versions of 'how to install on an Android tablet' with no luck either.
All the best Richard.
Hello folks.
I'd like to try the Remix OS on my Pixel C, but would like to be able to go back to Android if I don't like it. I have TWRP recovery installed. Can I just install all the image files but skip the recovery.img? Will this allow me to run TWRP and restore an Android backup? Or is there some dependency needed in the remix recovery?
Thanks for the help.

Have to admit, it does need better instructions, namely for setting up ADB Fastboot... something that was sorely missing. I had to install it, then open an command line prompt then change to that directory. Then run all the commands in the bat file that was included. After getting the ADB driver from Samsung working, it was a breeze but until then, it was a nightmare!
Right now I'm running Remix OS 3 for the Google Pixel C, it's android version 6.0.1 and it runs pretty good. I got tired of waiting for Nougat to roll out not to mention, Nougat doesn't support free form windows... something I love on my Samsung devices!!!! Oh one other thing, it does not have root support even though their videos claim that it does!
i have a lumia 540 which should be sufficient for doing what everyone else is achieving.
I then went to "for developers" and enabled "developer mode" and enabled device discovery.
I used the program wconnect;
Code:
C:\Users\xav\Downloads\wphone\APKDeployment>wconnect usb
Creating session...
Please enter the pin for the device to be paired and connected: N2d7G4
There was a problem booting the Astoria platform on the Windows device. Error co
de = 14
It shows on the phone 1 device paired so its doing that part ok.
am i missing the developer extras package?
I feel that maybe it. which probably has the android development stuff.
if i goto check for updates it says i am up to date.
Please help!
i need install android apk files on my phone......
Astoria is dead... no possible way to do that...
What's your model and Windows build?
I've used Android apps on a 640 xl. Only with the leaked (and no longer supported) rom that has the Astoria packages. Why would you want to run android apps on an older unsupported OS version?
It has been said several times you can't install Astoria anymore on recent builds. The kernel needs to be customized in order to make possible install the packages again, it requires a lot of work

Call recording works last time I checked. Is the app not installed or not selectable (Voice Recorder)? The phone app uses the built in voice recorder to record phone calls. You might just need to enable the registry keys for it and select the app, did you try that for that feature?
As far as getting Astoria to work, just google it, that is how I found the FFU for the 640 XL...or buy an android phone if you must have android apps. It will go much smoother that.

Not sure you can. Unless a developer can edit the system UI in some way. It's still there even if you use a different launcher.
Turn off developer options, it'll disappear.
After Android 10 update (via fastboot; factory images)
Substratum does not compile/build overlays; the only reason I can think of is not being rooted.
I used the root method using Magisk & fastboot
Is there a different method of rooting with Android 10?
Thanks

i noticed the same thing when using substratum and substratum navigate theme for navbar customization , built and installed as usual but had no effect , i don`t think it has anything to do with root (but i could be wrong) i just think the themes are not updated to work with android 10 yet. As the theme i was using was last updated on july 25 2017 ...lol noticing that i actually surprised it worked on android 9.
Just check about app info in specific substratum themes your installing to make sure they are android 10 compatible. hope that helps :good:

yeah that sucks , i`m not really sure what might be causing that since it`s an android 10 compatible theme , hopefully someone with more experience will be able to shed some light , i`ve only used flux and navigate themes back on android 9 , but like you im hoping to be able to theme android 10. Not sure if the link helps but there`s a substratum forum on xda , maybe someone there might have advice

Just use substratum lite with compatible theme like ethereal and build overlays and reboot, you do need root
