Call Recorder
Problem solution
- Geolocation is constantly activated, even when GPS is disabled- With the active function "Call via Wi-Fi", geolocation is automatically activated each time you connect to a wifi network.
- Error loading (updating) an application in the Play Market: "The application is not supported on your device" - Decision
- Wi-Fi is turned off when the screen is locked- In order for Wi-Fi not to fall asleep, in the settingsrouter "Set the wpa key update interval" set 0 (Group Key Update Interval or Group Key Update Period), then in the phone Settings =>Connections =>Wi-Fi =>Advanced =>Wi-Fi in sleep mode =>Is always
- Constantly there is a request for a PIN code or pattern when unlocking (except for rebooting) with the fingerprint unlock rule set- Installed third-party blocker, which prevents unlocking fingerprint. (From third-party blockers work without problemsScreen lock pro with the Smart Lock Nexus Imprint option enabled and Double Tap Pro )
- Why can not record video in one file more than 4 GB? At 2K or 60 fps, this is about 20 minutes. When reaching 4 GB - a second file is created, etc.- These are the limitations of the FAT32 file system, it is for these dimensions that video recording is configured on the device (when recording can be carried out on an external memory card in FAT32 format).
- When sending SMS to a short number, the application asked that money may be charged and accidentally poked to forbid sending. As a result, I can not send SMS to a short number- Solution optionhere

I'm fine, the phone from mvideo.

The problem was with the fact that the connection catches weaker than the previous devices, and it was during telephone conversations, unlike the previous devices, that the conversation was interrupted in the basement and in some places, now replaced Simka (although it was just from meizu pro 5, where everything was OK) a couple of days chasing and understand
I recommend everyone to turn off the animation in the developer settings, everything flew in - to put it mildly. , and even earlier in the calculator, even the buttons seemed to be pressed with a delay.
From the alternatives inside the mount-tachviz I use nova launcher as a desktop and exdialer as a dialer (I use 1 sim + sd card), everything is gorgeous.
I use the phone intensively, there are a lot of programs, so the battery leaks like in all my smarts quickly, but this is because I have 4 hours of screen for dinner
3.5-4.5 h when working through LT comes out, I will work on optimizing this indicator, especially since today's update seems to be about that

Happy owners, please tell me how things are with the fingerprint scanner, in my s6 everything is sad, if it works, it will not work twice

On the stock firmware, the fingerprint scanner is rather annoying - the triggering is not perfect. You have to use your finger to count, but even so, sometimes you have to enter a pin with your hands, because it does not read. Additional fingers that are introduced for recognition are generally practically unrecognizable. Sadly, I expected more.



Rep: (42)
Timmy74 @ 03/22/2016, 08:04*

The scanner works perfectly. You just need to put your finger in different ways during initialization (by shifting, tilting, turning).
As a result, we get a smart and almost error-free option
