Speach input panel stuck



Running CleanRom on AT&T S6
When I am texting using the speech input and the phone shuts off the screen the 'Speak Now' speech input screen is stuck and doesn't respond. I can close it or get to function. I have closed all apps and it is still there. only a reset will fix the issue so far. Any ideas?

Note Edge or Note 4? Looking for input



Hi guys, I'm looking for input on my next phone. I've read through the edge vs note 4 threads but most are almost a year old so I'm looking for some updated info.

I currently have an S4 and have narrowed down my future options to the Edge and Note 4. I like the idea of having the edge screen but wondering if it's actually useful. Some comments in the old threads mentioned the lack of development for the Edge. Is that still true? I don't do anything crazy with my S4...It's rooted and I really like xposed and wanam. I haven't done ROMs or anything like that.

I guess my main question boils down to...can I root an Edge and have xposed? Is there anything else I should know about or take into account when evaluating the two phone options?

Thanks!

How to read key codes from input device?



I've been playing PC games on my phone using the Remotr app and a Moga Pro Power 2 controller. It's pretty awesome, but the deadzones on the sticks are ridiculous. I have to push the sticks almost a quarter of the way before it gets a response.

I discovered that in /system/usr/keylayout there are lots of *.kl files that correspond to devices on your phone. However, there are no files directly associated with the Moga, which has a vendor id 20d6 and device id 6271 according to /proc/bus/input/devices. So theoretically, there should be a Vendor_20d6_Product_6271.kl file.....but there isn't. Nor are there any other files listed here on the Android Developer Documentation.

So I adjusted the 'flat' values on controller axis, and named the file Vendor_20d6_Product_6271.kl .....but nothing has changed, no matter how low I set it.

I need to go back and make sure that the axis that I'm adjusting are correct, but I can't figure out how to look at how to double check this.

Alternatively, I might be editing the wrong file or have named my .kl file incorrectly, so if anyone could advise a way to make sure the file I think is getting called is actually getting called, would also be great.



Any input ? Note 5 or s6 edge?



Any help would be great guys. I currently have a s6 edge on att but looking to switch to T-Mobile. I love my s6e but since I'm switching and have an option on changing devices on intertaining the note 5.

I never owned a note line always had galaxy series. Is it too big and gauky in your pocket. Is it comfortable to hold to your ear? Is the spen actually something you use?

Any pros and con's would be great.

The guys
