comment How can I play video over my LAN?
@Izzy: BubbleIPNP worked like a charm. Make that an answer and I'll green check it.

comment Lock screen stuck in landscape mode on Galaxy Tab 10.1
Thanks for responding. I'm not sure that I believe this is just default for all tablets, though. I've had different versions of Android before this and all have been able to show the lock screen in portrait mode.

comment Can I replace the system font just for Japanese text?
@Flow: I don't think closing as "Too localised" is a "fake" reason.

comment Can I replace the system font just for Japanese text?
@Flow: I can't delete it because there is an answer so the system won't allow it.

comment Why do all the directories on my tablet have all these weird numbers?
Voting to close as this has been rendered moot by upgrading the tablet to Android 4.

comment Can I replace the system font just for Japanese text?
Voting to close. The font issue seems to be resolved by installing a ROM/Kernel more compatible with my phone, and as such I can't and won't be pursuing this issue any further.

comment Sound volume randomly changes
This issue seems to have been corrected by upgrading to a kernel and ROM which are more compatible with my hardware. Should I put that as an answer or should the question be closed?

Disable which app, exactly?

Fair enough. :)

comment Can receive but not send SMS
It's hard to imagine network issues are the cause since I can receive fine, and all other functions like phone and mail work. However, in any case, my service provider assured me the network was fine.

comment Can receive but not send SMS
Thanks for responding. I have asked about the ROM with the developer. I'm hoping there might be a solution that does not involve wiping the phone (again), unless I know for sure it will fix it. I've been playing a lot of feature-whack-a-mole recently, and I'd like to stop.

Asked about this on AskUbuntu as well.

comment What are my options for connecting my Android to Ubuntu?
@Izzy: Thank you for the suggestion. However, it seems that Tasker and SecureSettings have USB tether options, but no USB connection options.

comment What are my options for connecting my Android to Ubuntu?
Thanks for this tip, but if I connect by Airdroid, can I also sync my music files in Banshee? I'm looking to have all the functionality I had with USB mass storage previous to upgrading to 4.1.2.

Ended up getting an answer elsewhere, but 100 rep to you for at least trying to help. :)

comment How do I get my GPS working in Android 4.1 Jelly Bean?
Thank you for responding. I've tried a variety of GPS fix apps, and testing in wide open spaces, and I still get nothing. A friend of mine has Jelly Bean installed with no GPS issues, so I think GPS should work with this ROM, but so far, no joy.

There is no Google Search entry under the "Media Button Pressed" Category in Autostarts.

comment How do I turn off speech search in Jelly Bean?
I downloaded and installed Autostarts, and there is a "Media Button Pressed" entry, but I have discovered that it is not clicking the button once that activates Google Voice Search, it is holding down the button. Holding down the button should cause PowerAMP to advance forward one song. Unfortunately I can't find any entry for long presses on the headset button.

comment Sound volume randomly changes
Thank you for this suggestion. Unfortunately, I have tried this app for the last few hours and have discovered that it does not prevent the volume from making spontaneous changes.
