Check your settings in Accessibility -> Text-to-speech output. You need "Google Text-to-speech Engine" enabled and selected.

And check your settings in Google Now, maybe you accidentally turned off text-to-speech there.

Enable Facebook contacts synchronization on cynogenmod 10.1

I am wondered that can we enable full Facebook synchronization in cynogenmod 10.1 because cm10.1 does not allow Facebook synchronization again some apps in playstore only synchronize photos and nothing else i. e we want phone numbers and email address i searched across and this is it
We need
1) official Facebook app from playstore
2) contact apk and contact provider apk from link below
3) root browser or any file browser that have system acess
Procedure :
1) if u have already setup fb synchronization in acconts just remove it
2) now go to system - apps-contacts storage - tap clear data ( this will erase all numbers u have to synchronize u r all Google and fb contact again manually later or keep backup of contacts)
3) now go to root browser copy and paste both apps contact and contact provider apk in system - apk i. e u have to overwrite both
4) reboot phone
5)now setup fb account in system - account
Wait for synchronization thats it

Android removed native fb sync from 4.0 onwards. So it will not be there in cm 10.1 also.
I am using ubersync app to sync fb.
Will try the method specified by you also.
How to revert back? Or remove this If not needed? What is the procedure?

Before pesting moded apks given by me just keep the backup of original contact apk and contact provider apk when u want to goback follow same procedure.
I personally used these apks it is working no bootloop or nothing but for safety u can keep nandroid backup of u r rom i. E in cwm recovery go to backup and restore >backup
When u got any problem go to cwm recovery >backup and restore >restore (u r desired backup)

This method suerly work because i tried some methods of fb synchronization from xda but it creats bootloop finally i extracted these apks from carbon rom 4.2.2 and it worked
Though if u r not sure then firstly u can go with contact+ app from playstore and tell me whether contact+ app sycronize all friends phone numbers and email addresses

It should work! But u have to remove u r fb account in settings, u should clear previous synchronized data of contacts storage and u should have latest Facebook app. U should follow mentioned procedure exactly. I don't think there will be any other method

[Q] [TASKER] Getting details of App Installed/Uninstalled/Updated

Hi
I am creating a system log using Tasker. Through the 'Event' context , i can detect when a package is installed/uninstalled or updated. However, i cannt see any variable that can retrieve the name of the package so modified. is there any way to retrieve the information?
i am having Rooted Nexus 5 runnning stock 4.4.2.

You need to create the task and variable to assign to the profile.

Using which variable? I don't think there is a tasker variable that retrieves recently changed package information. there is an Event Context that detects change. But I want to get the name of the package

[Q] Nexus 5 + Miracast / Screencast disconnecting

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to play with them miracasting dongles for a project I'm working on.
Just got myself a dongle from ebay, seems to work (producing video). However, upon attaching with Screen Cast (under display options) it works for 10-12 seconds and automatically disconnects without reconnecting.
Happened the same with a different Nexus 5 and a Nexus 7.
All devices were rooted, all have stock on them (4.4.2).
I've read somewhere that this issue might happen as part of a DRM mechanism (at Samsung Galaxy devices). When the Flash Counter is bigger than 0' the exact same smypthom happens.
Although I'm stocked, I did flash my phones (had to, they came with 4.4 and I wanted 4.4.2). CWM etc.
Anyone seen this issue? overcame it? couldn't find a lot of details about this in Nexus devices ..

anyone?

I've got a nexus 4 and it's also not working with a Samsung Smart TV. TV says Connected but it cancels before i See anything.
BUT:
I found a way to get miracast working on Nexus 7 (2012) (unoffical) and it works. But here the TV shows me a pin code which i have to enter on the tablet..
Anyone solution? It cant be true that this works unoffically on a device which doesnt support it and doesnt works on a device which supports it...

I think i know why. WiDi is secured with HDCP, but if you flash your phone, HDCP won't work anymore. So go to Settings → Developer Settings → HDCP checking → Never use HDCP checking. Now it should work (it now works at mine ?) good luck

~ EDIT ~
Install offical AOSP and DONT ROOT and it will work. Miracast/WiDi doen't work on rooted devices.

* or if your devices are rooted, install TWRP, mount /system, go to Advanced -> File Manager. Then delete /system/app/Superuser.apk (delete supersu / superuser apk file) and rename /system/xbin/su to "sup" or sth. So you don't have to root it again.

Sorry, this is inaccurate. Miracast (which is very different from Chromecast) DOES in fact work on rooted devices. I have one in my car (going to my head unit) that's worked just fine on both my nexus 4 and 5 rooted. Maybe Google is using root to try and lock down Chromecast somehow but I'd double check that as well. I think koush's Mirror app may even require it and I believe it works with Chromecast. I'd spindle check that though. But Miracast certainly works with root.

[4.4.2] Mega ROM!

This ROM is now obsolete! My new ROM is called "Plasma ROM" - check that one out!

What do the AOSP and dark themes look like?

Sorry. I had screenshots, but DevDB projects are buggy and they are gone. I am adding the dark theme screenshots now. As for the AOSP theme, that is coming soon (hopefully).
EDIT: They're up! The AOSP theme will hopefully look something like this.

Not Lollipop, bold move! I am walking away from lollipop, so thanks for giving us another option!

I am working on a lollipop upgrade...

New update tonight: 1.5! I have fixed Chrome and almost finished most of the AOSP theme. Will also be updating base ROM from Extreme Debloat 1.0 to 1.5.

Is the aosp theme build off of the stock ui? As in lockscreen, notification bar and everything?

i spoke ahead of myself lol, I have no idea how to theme. i know someone who does, and I just send a PM to him to see if he could show me. I'm hoping it will look something like this.
I just removed the "AOSP Theme coming soon" thing because it's not 100% guarranteed yet, but it will probably still be coming!
Worst case, I will try to port the SystemUI and framework-res.apk from Eclipse ROM. (Or maybe even the Nexus 5...)
EDIT: Just got explained how to theme (thanks DROIDRAZ). When I get home tonight I will theme the APKs and hopefully include them in v1.6

Edit: nevermind. Didnt read everything like an idiot
Can we install this just with Safestrap or do we need to use flashfire?

Either should work, but I reccomend safestrap

Email
Any way to get the email APK?? I'm in IT and definitely need to have email or i'm f'ed
I tried downloading a few APKs but with no luck. Maybe i need to take the back route and att them into their respective folders instead of flashing in Safestrap
