Not sure why people keep saying this about a sealed phone allows for a bigger battery because it's been proven to be false so many times. When the S series had it, the batteries in it were often just as big, or bigger, than sealed phones of the same model year while being just as thin. When...

Are you rooted and if so do you have any apps frozen or possibly uninstalled that had come with the device?

I got the LP update earlier and so far I'm really liking it. Battery life is just as good as before so no need to do a reset, however there is one issue. Previous on KK when I have my phone in the car dock (I don't use the car dock mode btw) the dialer would adjust to landscape mode however...

This Quantum Dot display, is that an LCD or an OLED type of display?

Nope, I already turned the power saving mode off. I'll give that Dim Lock a try, see if it can do anything.

Whenever I put my S4 in the car dock, the phone does recognize it is in the dock. I also use the developer option for it to Stay Awake while charging. The problem is, even though I have Stay Awake checked, the screen still dims. It doesn't go to sleep, but the dimming makes it difficult to...

I just got my iBolt car dock for my S4 today and I noticed that the screen would still turn off after 1 minute. I did some research and discovered how to turn on the Developer menu and that there is a check box to leave the screen on while charging. My issue however is I only want the screen...

Yeah, I can do that, I was just hoping there was a way to make it act as it always did before by going to the screen it was on before the call.

I am having an issue after updating to JB where every time I end a call, instead of going back to the home screen like it should, it ends up on the recent calls tab of the dialer. Is there a setting I need to change to have it go back to the home screen?

LOL Sounds like I should have waited one more day.

Oh well, I wish I had root to get rid of the bloat when this stops being my primary phone, but I will just have to live with not having it. Who knows, maybe we will get lucky and a root exploit will be found. Think I will just FDR and who knows, maybe a miracle will happen. But thank you for...

LOL Leave it to me to get the odd error.

Ok, I opened the ADB Shell and I have showing "1:shell@cdma_targa:/ $" (no quotes). I typed /system/usr/we-need-root/su-backup because I checked the phone and it is there, but it says "Can't execute: Permission denied".

Sounds good, I will try that.

Ok, for my peace of mind so I know best what to do since I've never done anything like this before, I drop the su file in the HoB Utility subfolder, then open up a Command Window and go to C:\xxxxxx\desktop\House of Bionic\utilities (or whatever the Directories are named) and type "ADB shell"...
