Activate setting not showing during ActiveSync config [General]

Activate setting not showing during ActiveSync config

Hi all,

I have a phone where Im trying to configure ActiveSync. It all goes "smoothly" because the account can be configured. The problem is when I try to view email on the configured account. It says that security policies have to be updated but I dont know where to go. I tried to remove and add the account again but I never see the "Activate" prompt where Im supposed to accept the security policies. Therefore, I dont see the Email app as a device administrator as I do on all the other users I have configured their accounts for.

Thanks in advance!

Widget for Official Twitter App Not Updating [General]

Widget for Official Twitter App Not Updating

i noticed the widget for the official twitter app does not update at startup unless i open the app. yes, sync data is on and sync interval is set. in addition, the phone was reset and reformatted with no avail. also installed it on another device with same results. even though the widget does not update, i still get dm, mention, favorite, and retweet notifcations. strange.

the facebook widget will always update at startup. i also use the seesmic widget which updates at startup. difference between facebook and seesmic is that seesmic has an option in the settings, "launch at startup" in "misc". after the device is turned on and completes loading up, the app does not open but starts running in the background. going back to facebook, it doesnt have an option like that. regardless, it starts running in background.

finally, the question. how do we get the twitter app to run in the background at startup so the widget can update?

btw, already tried 3 different startup manager apps but they open the twitter app at startup. it will get the widget to udpate because the app is now opened but thats not what im looking for.

I need help asap!

I have a Samsung Galaxy S3, US Cellular SCH-R530. I recently switched from apple, and I was getting bad signal. My friend said that he would fix it, and he tried downgrading my phone from 4.3 Jelly Bean to 4.2 Jelly Bean. And now my phone is stuck in "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again. I use my phone daily, and for a lot of purposes. He said he didn't know how to fix it, and kind of left me hanging without a phone. SO I really need to know how to fix this. Please anyone help me!

Return Nexus 4 to darker Holo theme post KitKat? Possible? [General]

Return Nexus 4 to darker Holo theme post KitKat? Possible?

Well, just got my Nexus 4 upgraded to KitKat and frankly the bright white backgrounds hurt the hell out of my eyes (I have bad eyes) especailly on the formerly nice and dark holo-themed Dialer app. Is there any way to get the lovely and easy to look at grey/black and blue holo theme back for the dialer? This new stark white nonsense that's been forced on me actually causes me physical pain. I know this won't be a problem for many, but I just want my dark theme back if anyone can point me in the right direction
