| Posted: 02 Jan 2017 07:20 AM PST Edit: You can fix it without a reboot. Just force stop the Shazam app. Thanks, /u/Daveed84! Just replicated it a few times, and Google Assistant would not connect, regardless of whether or not the tile was activated. Might have something to do with Shazam taking use of the microphone.

| If all smartphone manufacturers were reading this thread, what would you want to say to them? Posted: 02 Jan 2017 07:13 AM PST Title sums it up really. Imagine every phone manufacturer on the market right now had their R&D teams, their sales departments... Marketing... Designers... Engineers etc all reading this one thread... What would you as a consumer like the voice? [link] [comments]  | ||

| USB Type-C adapter for Headphones+charging Posted: 02 Jan 2017 12:11 PM PST maybe it is possible to build a adapter that allows charging (at 500mA) and using 3,5mm jack headphones at same time on a USB Type-C?
i did this schematic based on the USB Type-C standards and could not find anybody trying to do the same could someone could try it and tell us if this works? sources:

| PSA: More information on OpenGL/Vulkan requirements Nougat (3.1 not needed) Posted: 02 Jan 2017 11:40 AM PST I decided to revisit the hot topic of Nougat compatibility on devices based on a couple of recent thread comments. There are two different things between require and recommended. OpenGL 2.0 is an absolute must while OpenGL 3.0 is a "should" implement (probably for compatibility with apps) https://source.android.com/compatibility/android-cdd.html#7_1_display_and_graphics As for Vulkan, we already know that the Nexus 9 doesn't support it. Devices don't have to support the Vulkan API, but they must support the ability to report they don't support the API. In other words, Level0 support. https://source.android.com/compatibility/android-cdd.html#3_3_native_api_compatibility Now what does this mean about device support? Well, let's take a look at Android One devices. 2nd generation devices either have a Snapdragon 410 or 617. The Cherry Mobile One G1 runs on a 410 with an Adreno 306. Yes, older than the Adreno 330 in SD801/810s. Yes, only supports OpenGL 3.0. And finally, my point, it runs Nougat: http://www.gizguide.com/2016/09/cherry-mobile-one-g1-nougat.html So what does this mean? I'm not sure. Maybe Google relaxed their requirements. Maybe Sony was told something else. Maybe Google paid for drivers (I doubt it). Regardless, I figured this is all worth sharing. [link] [comments]  | ||

| [DEV] Taking Control of your Music Playback Experience Posted: 02 Jan 2017 04:47 AM PST Taking Control of Your Music Playback ExperienceWhen I first started working on Auracle, I wanted a music player that could play music the way I wanted it to be played. I wanted to be able to choose whatever song came up next, or even make an album or playlist play next. I would often forget the name of a song, but I knew the words, so I wanted to be able to search by the lyrics. I also wanted it to be beautifully designed, but alas… I was only a programmer. My visual design skills included a basic understanding of Microsoft Paint, and that was about it. I could make something work, but making it a joy to look at and use was a different matter. I was determined, so I decided to start with what I knew best: the code that went into making an app. Fast forward a couple of months and now I have a very basic prototype which could play music, shuffle, skip songs, and add songs to a queue. It's a cool spring day in April of 2014 and I'm browsing /r/Android, when a post by /u/jessecoleman caught my eye. It was a submission to Taylor Ling's (a Google Developer Expert and Material Design Award Winner) Android Design contest. In his submission, Cole had designed a beautiful music player by the name of Eve. It featured work that clearly showed how much he cared about controlling the music playback experience with a queue. The contest wasn't over yet, but I had to reach out to him. I sent Cole the app I had so far, and after getting it working on his phone, he agreed to work with me on making his mockups, now our dream, a reality. A few weeks later Cole was announced a winner of the design contest and now, we finally have a working beta to share with you! Introducing Auracle: A queue based music playerHere is an imgur album showcasing the many features of Auracle. Auracle's Features:
You can try out Auracle today by joining this Google+ community then signing up to be a tester here It takes a few minutes for the app to be available when you sign up for testing, so if the link doesn't work immediately, wait a couple minutes then try refreshing. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Do people still hate TouchWiz? Posted: 02 Jan 2017 05:02 AM PST I have a Galaxy J7 running Marshmallow. I absolutely love it. It looks beautiful. People have in the past said that the notification panel is ugly, but the new white+blue+grey combo looks pretty great to me. [link] [comments]  | ||
