[R] Ventrilo for Jellybean?

Currently, Ventriloid and Mangler are non functional for the Android JB firmware. Although the Ventriloid dev has posted a temp fix in the app description, it crashes alot and will not serve much use for me. Is it possible for someone to post a fixed app or a way to access vent on JB?

Ventriloid dev here. What issues are you having with the test version on the site? I just finished up my semester at school and will hopefully have an official release out by January, but I need some help testing.

Just wanted to jump in and mention that I am having issues too. Samsung SII, cm10. When I start ventriloid is initially says connecting, but then very often goes back to mobile's home screen. It then leaves a notification bar entry saying that it is connected. When you click on that, it does its two vibrates and goes off entirely. Sometimes I can get it going again, but is very fiddly. Dont know if this helps. Hope so.

Hey LondonLad, thanks for the report.
Are you using the Play Store version of the app or the Alpha on my Google Code?

Go try out the Alpha at ventriloid.googlecode.com in the downloads section and let me know how it works for you. I apologize for any lack of features in that version but it's a huge work in progress.

Have downloaded and it seems to work well. (Did loose the Ventriloid icon though!) One comment: One must tick the box Enable Global Push to Talk in order to see key. That is fine, but it does cover up part of you keyboard if you, for example, need to type in a password for a channel. Not a problem, but thought I would at least mention it.).:good:

I'm glad it's working for you I'm working on a complete UI overhaul and that global push to talk was more or less a proof of concept for being able to talk outside of the app. Android has limitations for hardware key interception that won't allow push to talk while the app is in the background, so hopefully people will enjoy this new button. It will eventually be a bar with other options that can be hidden. Thanks so much for testing, I'm glad the ICS/JB fix is working.

The one feature I am waiting for is to compile my own list of canned answers, in the order that I want. And how about keyboard support (just release an API and let developers build keyboards) instead of the stupid OK Google feature which I never use and is not nearly as reliable as it should.

THIS.
Been so long I almost forgot about it.
Although with the last update, they did make the notification pictures for group hangouts bigger, but not higher quality.

Dumb question, but does my phone need to be upgraded to Android 5.0 for the watch to be upgraded? Not that there is an update for my Note 4, but I may have to hold out because of one specific application I use regularly that I don't suspect will update right away for Lollipop.
I'd update for the battery life.

This is not a problem with the Moto 360, rather with Google in general and the way they treat contacts. Google apps default to a 96x96 photo. On your phone you can set a specific photo per contact up to 720x720 (assuming you have Android 4.1+) but that doesn't fix the underlying issue, and the contact photos don't persist to gmail or from Google+. This is a really annoying situation to me, as I like to set everyone's contact photo myself, and then Google overrides it with a 96x96 of the person's Google+ photo if that exists. I don't want the person's Google+ photo, much less a 96x96 of it.

its like any stock android device . all get the updates in the same time frame . not like OEM updates .

I'm running 5.0 on my s4
And I can already access the new features mentioned in the article. Being able to hide the top notification is actually really awesome, without disabling notifications on my watch I can see the entire watch-face. Very cool. The only thing that really bothers me now is that the words "ok google" are on the screen whenever I wake my 360 up for about 3-5 seconds. It's pretty intrusive and doesn't look good on a lot of my watchfaces. I'll post photos if anyone is interested.

I believe you are looking at the update they did a week or two ago, 4.4w.2, where the enabled being able to swipe down the bottom notification without dismissing it. I think the 'ok google' thing will go away, maybe with use I'm not sure, but mine isn't doing it at this moment and it was shortly after this last update.

Please dwell on this. Not sure what you're referring to.
If you referring to Hangouts Dialer, its working.

Using the Google Voice app. You get the "Call not sent" error.
https://www.google.com/search?q=hua...e=UTF-8#q=huawei+"call+not+sent"+google+voice
I think the issue is that the Dialer/Telecom isn't giving the Google Voice process enough time to prepare the call routing or something. If you select "Ask every time" in the Google Voice app routing settings, and wait a couple seconds after the pop-up, it works.

The most important thing that your rom must have is NO problem with notifications like stok or 3rd party mail apps,viber,facebbok & messanger, instagram and when im saying NO problem i mean that you will test it with screen of (for about 30minutes without interaption to be sure the phone is sleeping in doze mode) and recieve a mail to see if the divice wakes up alove and see in lockscreen the notification.

Notifications seem to be a different case for everyone. For starters I don't believe it is caused by doze, but by Huaweis implementation since disabling doze does nothing or did nothing for me. Don't experience any notification issues on this one.

Truecaller not showing details of unknown numbers

Hi,
I have installed Truecaller in the 5t. It is not showing names etc. of unknown numbers when I receive a call, but it shows them after I end a call. I have tried playing with the settings of Truecaller but can't seem to find anything. Any help?
Thanks

I've used Hiya, since it came bundled on my Axon 7. I installed it on my OP5T and it seems to work fine. No ads, either.
Here's a pretty in-depth comparison between the two:

I wish I could help, but my only contribution is to second what flapjack said. I've been using Hiya and it works for me.

Active Users: If you compare Truecaller with Hiya in terms of users, then former one has a huge user base then the later one.
No one in my area is on Hiya so it is not useful for me. Any other help for Truecaller?

Try uninstall and install again and make sure you not optimise true caller from battery optimisations. Also when you run the setup of the app allow it to ignore the optimisations.
True caller will work but would be a little slow to detect as per my testing on Oreo beta

Question Slower after Android 13/One UI 5 update. Anyone else?

It seems like the phone is ever-so-slightly-slower following the Android 13/One UI 5 update.
Splash screens of various apps consistently appear for a few split seconds longer than before. In fact, at least one app that used to launched instantly now shows a splash screen for a fraction of a second before launching.
Is this just my experience, or do others see the same thing as well?

Thank you.
But I'm trying to figure out if the small slowdown after Android 13 update is an anomaly or if most people experience it. Do you?

My phone came with Android 13/OneUI 5 preinstalled, but I later received an update with January security patch and I started facing issues after that update.
The scrolling works very bad, its like there are some ghost touches. When I scroll thru WhtasApp/Telegram chats, photos in gallary, webpages the scroll sometimes doesn't work, just like the screen didn't even register my touch. If I try to scroll fast, the scroll stops in between, just like a ghost touch or something.
I was also facing issue with fingerprint scanner when the phone screen is off for some time, but I got it resolved by removing existing finterprints. and registering new ones.
The scroll issue is a real bummer for me. I hope it get fixed with the next OneUI 5.1 update.

In Addition to what I listed above, I faced one more strange issue today. I received the January security patch AGAIN today. It's like before, the download size, update description, all is same.
The previous January security patch update I got was installed successfully, I could see it in the software section, I am not sure why I received same update again.

Can someone here please confirm if you are able to scroll faster? I mean, I have my old OnePlus 6 with me. If I do a simple test to scroll once in a telegram chat, OnePlus scroll backs to more number of chat messages compared to S21FE. The S21FE just scrolls to few lines.
Anyone observed same issue?

Yes. the scrolling on the S21 FE is much more stiff and "heavy" than my old J series Samsung phone. In addition, many screen taps aren't noticed by the phone, requiring me to tap again.
You should report it in the Samsung member app like I did. The more people who report these problems the bigger a chance that a patch will be issued.
