Google had a very bad experience with the Verizon Gnex. Google abandoned it as a developer device for a period of time. Verizon is extremely pushy when it comes to having control and wanting their bloatware installed.
[Nexus 4 General] Starlith:
We had CDMA in New Zealand for a long time under Telecom until it couldn't keep up with the lack of handsets produced for its CDMA network. Eventually their GSM competitor Vodafone took the majority market share and that forced Telecom to get rid of their CDMA network in favour of WCDMA and now every ones happy. I can only hope for the same result to you guys in the states because CDMA was rubbish in New Zealand
[Nexus 4 General] DowntownJeffBrown:
Nope never Verizon is CDMA Sorry

[Nexus 4 General] zelendel:
Look the real reason for it is that there is too much of the CDMA files that are closed sourced. The dialer being a big problem. With that being the case they decided not to have to deal with it. Cant have AOSP and a closed sourced dialer. We all saw the issue with this last time.

If you want nexus 4 get a HTC DNA, a lot of same hardware, better screen and camera and if you want pure android, The dna had a good start on xda and has unofficial cyanogenmod, you should go check it out, its pretty legit
[Nexus 4 General] Jayrod1980:
Even worse battery life and the same sd card limitations as well. Probably a better camera but I'd rather have a real nexus. Pretty sweet that it has pentaband gsm though. Works on T-Mobile from what i have heard.

Verizon won't be CDMA for long eventually there network will be completely LTE with different layers of that LTE. LTE is a gsm technology even Verizon's version their CDMA will eventually be converted to gsm

Auctally looking at reviews alot of people wrote it gets better battery life than Galaxy s3, so either htc made some battery saving software or made higher density battery
[Nexus 4 General] FallN:
Google got tired of the Nazi that is Verizon. Don't expect to see another CDMA Verizon Nexus for the foreseeable future.

Get off that old ass crap that is CDMA and join the rest of the world in not paying insane Verizon $$$ bills with the ability to choose any phone you want on any GSM network in the world that you want AND you can have a shiny, amazing Nexus 4. :D

Seeing how well Google handled this nexus 4 and you can't even get one now I doubt this will ever happen. I had to steal my replacement from Google seeing how it will be a while before you can get another.

Nexus 4 will be old by the time it happened and Verizon and sprint don't even care to try to gain it.

So i got my one v bootloader unlocked and went to go flash a rom but i havé some questions First of all thé instructions for thé recovery say to flash kernel first but when I put a kernel on mt sdcard it doesnt show up in twrp and also if i first flash the kernel won't that not let me boot. Sorry if these questions seem kind of dumb but I'm new to this
[HTC One V] ckpv5:
You don't use recovery to flash kernel, you need to manually flash it via fastboot.

Uhh i made a mistake and flashed the kernel before the rom and now it stays stuck on the bootscreen how do i get into fastboot
[HTC One V] mihirengg19:
That's not a mistake.flashing kernel before ROM is perfectly normal.to go into fastboot,hold power for 10+seconds until the screen goes black.now once its black,release power and then press and hold volume down until u see the bootloader screen.from there select fastboot.

[Microsoft Surface] Twistys:
Every time I go back on a page in metro IE10 it has to reload the page. Its pretty annoying, was wondering if anyone has found a work around so it does always reload.
[Microsoft Surface] GoodDayToDie:
Hmm... there's an option in the dev tools to disable caching and always reload from the server, but other than that, it should use the cache on sites which indicate they support it.

Note that some browsers cache even when the site does not indicate that the content is cachable, so long as it doesn't indicate the opposite. I personally find this behavior very annoying, as a lot of sites with dynamic content nonetheless don't forbid caching and therefore the old content is loaded. For that matter, on XDA-Devs itself, the browser does not (in my experience) refresh after clicking Back, which means that if you read a thread and then hit Back, the thread is not marked as Read.
[Microsoft Surface] wardh:
I find the back button to work better then swipe to get back.
[Microsoft Surface] tboy2000:
I am having problem having to sign in sites all the time. Eg log into xda, use it. If I reboot or even just sign out and go back to xda I have to sign in again despite remembering password. Looked in settings and can't see why.
[Microsoft Surface] GoodDayToDie:
I think that one is just XDA-Devs being silly. It sets a "logged in" cookie that only persists for a short time. This cookie is automatically refreshed when you load a page on the site, but if it expires before you use the site again you'll appear to be signed out until you hit Refresh.

Note that this "logged in" cookie with the short lifetime is different from the "user id/password" authentication cookies. Those, as you'd expect, persist for a long time if Remember Me is set.

Very, very silly.

I've been playing around with the android emulator, I've got the standard google rom to run fine, but when I extracted the Sammy rom to the relevant directory and ran the AVD, I just get stuck with a blank emulator screen, left it running for hours and nothing loaded.

Has anyone managed to emulate the Sammy stock rom, or is it not possible at the moment ?

I'm wanting to swap out some of the Sammy apk's with Sammy apk's that have been modified to look like native android apps, such as MMS and Contacts, hate the Sammy apps look and feel.

I've been running stock with modified apk's for over a year now, just haven't made the upgrade to JB since I don't want to lose my custom apk's and they won't work on JB.

If there's an easier way to modify apk's than constantly reflashing them to the physical device or running an AVD I'd be happy as a pig in sh*t to try it out ;)

When I listen to music on my phone the right earbud or right speakers in my car have a significantly lower volume and only the beat will play(no lyrics).

Still under warranty? Call VZW and get it replaced...

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jtkemp101010:
Has anybody intentionally destroyed their phone to get a refurbished one with little time left on their warranty? I want to know if there is a way I can successfully get a replacement from Sprint. My screen is in pretty rough shape, and based on what I've read, they won't replace it soley on a broken screen. (no digitizer damage) I know it's a bit underhanded, but I'm sure as hell not spending $270 on a screen replacement! Thanks in advance!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] decimalman:
WTF? If you're worried about the condition of your phone, don't treat it like crap. Next time around, maybe think about a screen protector and a case instead of trying to scam your way to a new phone?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] davelikestacos:
Lol, a screen protector and a case were the first things I bought for my S3. My phone has fallen twice since then and I have been SO glad I invested in the soft shell rubber case. No damage to the phone or screen whatsoever :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
The screen replacement is only like 178.50 with next day shipping there and back from samsung. And how are you almost out of warranty when the phone hasnt even been available for a year and you have a 1 year mfg warranty.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Notorious:
Sprint won't help you at all since it sounds like you don't have TEP(they don't help anyway). And Samsung only covers manufacture defects and hardware defects. If the phone has physical damage then your warranty is voided with them
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ImEVO:
Put it in the microwave for 8 seconds you'll fry the circuits.. :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Samsung repairs busted screens under warrant its just not free, but it is about half the cost it would be out of warranty. Its not a bad deal since they replace the entire glass/digitzer/lcd assembly and then reinstate your warranty afterwards:thumbup: and its next day shipping there and back so you're only without your device for 3-5 days max. Typical turn around is 3 days, day you ship, day they receive, day they ship back. However if they are backed up sometimes they have it in their possession for a couple days while they do the repairs

I'm an old iPhone user and I know with the iPhone if you cracked your screen, you could buy a replacement kit and spend no more than $50 bucks or so. Is there no replacement screens for the Galaxy S3?

There are, but the glass is fused to the display, making it extremely difficult to replace just the glass.

Assuming you have insurance it'd be $150 for the deductible. If you don't then that's you fault. Get a protective case next time.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onlyhalfthetime:
I have a Nexus 7. I have root. No custom ROM; the most modding I did was adding a cool font. I have Skype. I have tried both the official version and the lasted SkypeMod. I have downloaded and run CameraLauncher.

Here's the problem: When I am in a video call, I can see the other person just fine AND I can see myself in the little box in the corner. However, the other person cannot see me. They just see a little circle going round and round like it's waiting for me to transmit.

I have verified all settings and that I can soot and record video. This is driving me mental and ANY help or thoughts that could lead me in the right direction are greatly appreciated in advance.

Rarely use skype but did try it on my rooted/stock nexus 7 and got exactly what you describe, video on nexus 7 but not on recipient's computer (only audio).
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zolaisugly:
Could it be because you are rooted that causes the issue...... Like sky go you can only use if not rooted. Try using voodoo ota to temp hide root and then restart Skype.

Don't use Skype, not sure if affected by root. No harm in trying.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onlyhalfthetime:
Maybe fixed?

That is the version I am using too.

I realized today that I am a moron. :( I was only testing the Skype with one recipient. so, what if the problem was on their end?

Turns out, they were using a laptop with a mobile data card. I just used my wife's phone with the Skype app and all went well. video on both sides. :victory:

However!!! I need to continue testing because before I tried that I fund the advanced settings in SkypeMod that forces video calling! I checked Force-enable Video-calling, Force Camera Rotation, and Unlock Orientation.

Since I had to search high and low for someone with the same problem and no resolution, I understand how frustrating that can be. I will continue updating this thread and [SOLVED] it when I am satisfied that I got the answer for the people from the future. :cool:

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onlyhalfthetime:
It was indeed the other person's issue. No one else could Skype him either. That was silly on my part. However, I did uninstall SkypeMod and reinstall the regular app and got no video with anyone. Maybe because I'm rooted? Using SkypeMod I was able to skype anyone and they could see my video. Just make sure you go into the advanced settings and force enable video.

What an awesome apk. I am still floored that it works on my EVO 4g!

Whenever I try to turn on Wifi or BT, it says 'error'. I'm also getting occasional random reboots. Is there any fix for this? I'm running Neutrino ROM 2.9. Is there another ROM I should try? I've also heard that this issue is only fixed by repair. Would warranty cover this even though it's rooted/custom ROM?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ravilov:
You need to search before you post. This has been covered literally countless times. There are even several threads open specifically about this. In short, there is no fix for this.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darthspartan:
I would have agreed that there is no fix but. I just had the wifi error after flashing Neutrino dont know why but that rom has done this to two of my atrix's anyway i just went and try'ed this [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYz_RiuFVRk[/YOUTUBE] and guess what wifi works again. I guess if your atrix is not under warranty try it otherwise i don't recommend it. Im also not trying to say this is a for sure fix as the atrix has had is share of hardware defects but im glad i tried it. If its not clear in the video he is disconnecting the battery that im assuming is the phones equivalent of a cmos bat.

I've seen an increase in people who have gotten themselves stuck in a bootloop or can't seem to get the combo right to get into download or recovery mode.

Assumptions:

You have the proper drivers installed

Samsung Driver

Your phone is recognized by your PC

Instructions:

Power Phone off

Extract this folder to your computer

Run batch file for Download or Recovery Mode (it waits to see your phone)

Plug phone into computer

Power phone on

Phone should be detected and go into the proper mode

Thanks i was tinkering with a noria 7" tablet, which hasn't worked right since i got it but for 65 bucks its to be expected, but i used sdk manager to get it to register on my computer as an android adb device and for some reason i tried to turn the wifi on and it crashed and got stuck in a boot loop idk why. like i said hasn't worked right since i bought it. But i did use adb portable like you said to get into recovery mode and it worked great thanks! For other noria users when i figure out how to flash a rom to it i'll start a section here on xda as soon as i figure it out. Thanks again
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BrockSamsonFW:
Any suggestions if ADB doesn't see it?

- Phone was working fine in the morning and at lunch I noticed it was off.

- Try to turn phone back on and it is stuck at the samsung menu like everyone else.

- Soft and hard reset change nothing.

- Neither recovery nor download mode works using every key combo that I've seen suggested.

- Computer detects a device but "USB Device not recognized" and ADB can't see any devices (and I know it is set up correctly as I have the full SDK installed and known to be working).

- Charging still works fine and the battery is now at 100%

- Phone is NOT rooted and has no special apps or any recent changes to change the situation (not even app updates since a few weeks)

I'm not sure what else to do. I will probably let it sit for a few days without a battery, but otherwise I would open it up and see if there is some mechanical/electrical issue like a short or something somewhere. Pretty sure this is a software issue though. Any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
To use ADB you must have USB debugging enabled in settings under Developer Options. If you don't keep this enabled all the time, and it wasn't set when the phone stopped working, then ADB is not an option.

Hopefully, you can get into download mode. For reference, here are the ways I know of, in case you haven't tried something here:

If you can get into download mode, you should flash the stock firmware and then perform a wipe data/factory reset from within stock recovery.

There are several ways to put the phone into download mode. You should try all of them that you can before you give up.

Recovery mode:

With the phone off (and not connected to the computer), and battery installed, hold all three buttons, vol- vol+ pwr continuously until the initial boot screen appears the second time.

Download mode:

1. With the phone off and connected to the computer via USB cable, and battery installed, hold all three buttons, vol- vol+ pwr.

2. With the phone off and battery installed, hold vol- and vol+ (but not pwr) while plugging in the USB cable.

3. With the phone off and battery installed, hold vol- (but not vol+ or pwr) while plugging in the USB cable.

4. Attempt each of the above three options with the battery removed from the phone. The computer will supply the power to the phone.

5. Use Android Debug Bridge (adb) which will only work if USB debugging has been already turned on in Developer Options, since you can't boot into the system to turn it on. With the battery installed and the phone connected to the pc via USB cable, use the command "adb reboot download".

6. Use a USB jig. With the battery installed insert the USB jig into the USB connector of the phone. Some have reported that this method works when no other method would work.
