Hi, I have had a few problems with boot looping since I tried to install Halo Pa, I have managed to get ARHD 10.1 restored back to my phone but my phone is still boot looping even in boot loader and recovery. I don't know what to do next can anyone help me please:

Try fully wiping your phone and /sdcard and installing the latest odexed stock rom
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxal:
I think I have made it worse, I though I would try and relock the bootloader and and use Method 2 - flashing RUU (ROM Update Utility) which was going well untill I got a fail message wrong bootloader. Now my phone is constant bootlooping into bootloader.

I phoned HTC UK this morning about repairing my phone they said they would replace the motherboard which would cost about £100 so I think I will have to do that:crying:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matt:
When your phone is in bootloader, does it stay there?

OR does it reboot itself

[Oppo Find 5] Fen24:
Hello everyone

I have a simple question.

What choose between nexus 4 and Oppo find 5?

I like Oppo find 5 for its camera and audio

But nexus is nexus

:eek:
[Oppo Find 5] Rydberg1:
Your simple question requires a quite long answer. If you're looking for a technical comparison you can look at a site like gsmarena.

I haven't had a Nexus 4 but from what I've heard the screen on the Find 5 is better. It's running full-HD instead of 1280x720, which makes it sharper, and the feel and response is just astonishing. From what I've heard the Nexus 4 has felt a bit faster and smoother, but that source is from before a few updates on the Find 5.

If you google around I'm sure you will find more details about software differences on these phones, but if you look at the hardware of these phones it feels like the Find 5 has the upper hand.
[Oppo Find 5] ZakooZ:
Better:

Screen

Camera

Build quality

(Subjective, but for me: ) Design

Storage

Battery

Same:

CPU

No 4G

RAM

Worse:

Out-of-the-box software, but when you're in xda you likely wont be using it

Price, but little difference when you're in europe
[Oppo Find 5] Fen24:
The hardware is	without a doubt better on Oppo.

But i think that the community around the Nexus is the best.

developers will be interested to Oppo?

I don’t succeed to decide

I can buy a Oppo for 399 Euro vs Nexus 4 for 349 Euro.
[Oppo Find 5] S.D.Richards:
It's actually 399 vs 359 (Google wants ~10 for shipping).

For me, the ~40 bucks difference alone is worth the far superior display and in my subjective view the design and built-quality - plus I like to support "underdogs".

As far as software goes, the Find 5 is one of the view non-Nexus devices getting official support from Paranoid, plus there is CM & PAC and a few other ones, not to forget Oppo keeps it's stock ROM updated very regularly so far (currently at least once per month).

The big question is, do you really really need Android updates the first day and thus maybe also getting severe overlooked bugs or can you live waiting a little longer, but getting the features of CM/PA/AOKP/etc? If you intend to keep stock Android, the Nexus is the obvious choice, but if you're interested at all in other ROMS, the little money extra for the Find5 is well worth it, imho.
[Oppo Find 5] Rydberg1:
I think you will be happy whichever device you choose. When you ask this question in this part of xda I think the answer always will be the Find 5, since we all got it. But anyways, I chose between these two devices before i decided to go with the Oppo. I didn't have any way of seeing the Find 5 (in real life) before I bought it, and I still chose it mainly because:

The Design

The Screen (I knew it was good from reviews)

Oppo's spirit of being very open to modding

The fact that not many have it in Sweden (or Europe). I guess the feeling to be hipster is quite tempting.

So, to sum it up I would like to recommend you into paying those few extra euros for getting the Find 5. You won't be dissapointed.
[Oppo Find 5] Fen24:
Thank you, everybody
[Oppo Find 5] kinghu:
Having just ordered a 32gb Find 5 I had the same question. Except I had experience of the Nexus 4 as my wife recently got it to replace her Note 1.

From setting it up for her, I must say it's an excellent phone for the money and unbelievably smooth. She loves it despite the drop in screen size (the dpi is greatly improved).

For me though, used to an Note 2, I'm interested in the IPS 1080 screen, build quality, and perhaps above all, that it's not mainstream. Plus the community around it sounds good.

The price is good albeit not as low N4 but the screen and design is worth the extra. I also found dropping to 4.7 inch screen a bit too much from the 5.55 Note 2. I'm hoping the 5 is the sweet spot whilst still being easy to use with one hand.

Tired of iPhone, Samsung's plastic design and Touchwiz. Oppo here I come.

[Oppo Find 5] ayo234:
Some guy is offering to trade his oppo find 5 for my Nexus 4. What should I do? I looked around and it seems development around here isn't as strong as the nexus 4 forums. But you find 5 people seem to love your phone.

Sent from that one guy with the cool phone
[Oppo Find 5] kinghu:
Depends on what you prefer for your needs.

I'm not surprised the N4 has strong development given it's Google's phone and older than the F5.

Personally, the larger screen and higher resolution along with the industrial design are winners for me. I also like the community and how it seems to be growing with enthusiasts.

Now, I'm just waiting for the phone to arrive.

-- From my N7102
[Oppo Find 5] Luminair:
I bought both because I couldn't decide; my Nexus got to my house a day earlier. I detested the screen, it was by far the worst mobile device I had ever had to look it. Truly disappointing. Hardware was fine, Nexus experience was great. Battery was pretty poor.

The next day my Find 5 showed up - I couldn't put it down. Gorgeous screen coming from a Note 2, fantastic battery life on CM 10 (rock solid for me), superb performance. Returned the Nexus the next day, have been using the Find 5 since. VERY happy customer.
[Oppo Find 5] kinghu:
Heh, the Nexus screen isn't that bad but nowhere near the Find 5. And it kills the Note 2's SAMOLED outdoors (and indoors!). Makes me want to use it more.

-- From my Find 5
[Oppo Find 5] Baswazz:
I am also one of them that can't decide which one to pick Nexus 4 vs Find 5.

I did watch/read a lot of reviews, most of them are really pleased about the phone. However there are a couple of things that keep me from buying the Oppo.

I read the screen isn't scratch proof

It is quite a heavy phone in comparison with others (139g vs 165g)

I also read some negative things about the quality of the power button and the volume rocker.

Oppo vs Nexus 4 community

How fast does it charge compare with the Nexus 4

I am coming from the HTC Sensation which is 2 years old now. So as for now, i am not a user that switch phones on a regular base.

For me it is no problem to root the phone and switch to CM or Paranoid Android.

I hope you guys can convince me which to choose :confused:
[Oppo Find 5] mo123456789:
I used a nexus 4 for around 5 months and decided to sell it and get an oppo find 5. I've been using this for a week now and like everyone else has said the screen is AMAZING. The feel of the phone is top notch. My advice is look at your needs. Are you looking for a phone where u are not worried about flashing roms kernels firmware etc? While the hardware is exceptional the oppo is still behind in software and it will require us as users to try out and flash different things and being patient and open minded to small hiccups along the way. The team at oppo and other devs are working extremely hard. On the other hand if your looking for something more stable and smooth straight out of the box without having to worry about and play around with all the flashing then I'd definitely recommend the nexus 4. I still miss it a lot but personally I like experimenting with the latest software releases/beta versions etc so although the oppo software is not as 'buttery' smooth as the nexus. It is the phone for me. It all comes down to u how ur thinking of using the phone. Hope that helps. Any more questions give me a shout.

[Oppo Find 5] konstadinos:
Hello guys,

I face the same dilemma...

I also don't understand why the oppo 5 scores lower in some benchmarks like antutu, although it has a better hardware.
[Oppo Find 5] Banimale:
I believe you already know that benchmarks count for very little in real life.

And I must say that with my FInd 5 I had quite different results depending on the stock Oppo ROM I was using... if my memory serves me yhe best I got was the first ROM I had, one of the betas before Color ROM came along, and got scores higher than the "normal" Nexus 4.

I haven't tried benchmarking for a whie... not with the latest Color ROM, nor CM 10.1, nor Maxwen's AOKP.

I'm running CM 10.2 unoficial and just for info purposes I run Antutu v4 as I was typing and got: 18530 (between Nexus 4 and Xperia Z).

Antutu states 16793 for Nexus 4 in the comparison tables.

UPDATE: running again five minutes later got 18517

I wonder if the FullHD screen has its toll on this...

I use benchmarking just to know if everything's ok with my phone... if some part isn't malfunctioning...not to get higher or lower scores... for that I would have to overclock... :angel:
[Oppo Find 5] konstadinos:
Hi Banimale,

You are right about the benchmarks, they don't totally relate to the user experience, I just found it strange.

Are you satisfied with the battery life?

Is the stock rom buggy?
[Oppo Find 5] Banimale:
Stock ROM is buggy especially regarding battery life and some minor issues. But imo it is functional and has some interesting features and customisations.

Regarding themes and ui is kind of hate it or love it...

But one can always get another rom like maxwen aokp or cm... Even cm 10.2 unofficial. Better battery life and probably something one is familiar with and doesn't start blaming oppo for missing this or having broken that...

I really like my phone! :)

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stanfna:
I have been flashing ROMs for years. I am new to these. My questions are as follows...

What are the differences between 3minit and xposed? Is it as simple as it is the same thing from two different devs?

Can the modules be used interchangeably between both?

Does one have advantages or benefits over the other?

Can using one of these slow down your device?

Anything else one should know about using these?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HS™:
Both are Diffrnt

I have not seen any slowing down etc

I have been using both of it no issues

Xposed is used mainly for changing the phone DPI which changes looks of apps / icon etc

3minit is used for other all other setting etc u can see the thread for mre details

All i can say is use both they are best at there Place

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] iamsuperuser:
I have an Xperia p on which I watch a lot videos over upnp and dlna from the content on stored on my router's network drive.

Now many times I faced this problem of the videos clipping and stuttering on my Xperia p.

I use BubbleUPnP with Mx player to watch.

On my pc I never had this problem, the router streams just fine.

So are there wifi tweaks for better dlna playback?

Is the problem really in my phone or router?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chomot:
The title pretty much says it all.

My S3 i9300 does not have outgoing voice for the phone, I can hear callers but they cannot hear me unless I plug in a headset then it all works fine. So I am trouble shooting it and I find that the voice recorder does not have a voice input either but when I use the video camera it picks up sounds and voice just fine. So unless there is a separate microphone for the video camera then I ruled out a broken mic.

So I search this and other forums and have turned off the noise reduction option in the phone settings and that did not work so I am out of ideas at this point for software and all the other suggestions are replace the mic.

It is running a factory android ver 4.1.2 baseband I9300XXELLA Kernel Ver 3.0.31-748978

Any ideas would be great as I am stumped

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smartdetodos:
hi dude

to eliminate doubts about if there is a hardware or software problem

troubleshooting tips:

1 - you did tested physically the microphone - suppose to work fine (recording works for video camera)

2 - you did tested the apps camera and dialer - does not working (this suggest problems in this particular apps)

3 - backup your user apps (titanium, rom toolbox, go backup ... wherever ... your predilect backup app)

4 - do in recovery mode first the basic wipes ... cache ... dalvik ...

5 - reboot and test - if works ... good .... else next step

6 - again in recovery mode full wipe - reset factory

7 - reboot and test -

7.1 - I do a plus, after this I do a Factory data reset. Just to eliminate any residual stuffs. if works ... good and you can do a recover user apps .... else next step

8 - flash the favorite rom

("custom or stock - I really like custom ROMs ... more power .., more performance ... more control ... there is the problem with samsung warranty - who cares ... LOL" from old post)

9 - full wipe ... "zero old garbages" ... reset to factory default ... internal format ... etc ...

10 - reinstall the apps from backup, just apks ... test it

11 - verifying that all right, do recover your data apks ... etc ... test it

12 - and ... voilà ... else

13 - service centre

good luck

PS.

for stock fw search it from sammobile (stock rom - to your country / language) - needs register

http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/

Samsung Galaxy S III/GT-I9300 - Wiki - look this ... many and good links - how to install , root, recover , etc ...

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_III/GT-I9300

or here in xda - I do recommend a custom rom rooted ... try It ... you will want more and more power ... LOL ...

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chomot:
Thanks for the help PS,

This one is a real challenge. After doing as you suggested and that did not work out I did take it to the local Samsung service center and what they told me was.......

Water damage and it needed a new system board. However I did get them to do a factory wipe and reload but still the same issues. No mic for regular phone or voice memos. However the mic works fine when I plug in a headset.

So not I am really stuck as how can water damage kill the mic on only some apps? The mic still works fine when recording video and everything else on the device works fine.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reo0o:
Did you find a solution for this problem?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ads2996:
Its strange that only some apps are effected unless there is a sperate mic that is used by video recorders. Where as the phone app uses the one at the bottom
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chomot:
I was thinking the same thing that there must be a second mic but in all the googleing and other forum research I have only been able to locate the one. The phone works great with an earbud headset but once I unplug it even during a call the person on the other end of the line cannot hear anything I say.

If anyone has a totaled I9300 that they do not want to repair because the screen is broken let me know because if it has a good system board I may be interested.

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arome:
Hey I have the same problem as yours and indeed there is two microphones in the s3. One located on the bottom and one on the top. During calls the top one is there for noise reduction, but for video recording the top one is used to grab the sound (maybe both) but top one is active for sure. Try blowing/tapping on the top hole during a video you will understand.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chomot:
Very interesting that this is true, I will try and fix on it some more but since I cannot get the mic parts nor do I have the skills for serface mount soldering. I suspect this is now relegated to the kids for playing with as a small tablet. With a good protective case of course. Thanks for the responce.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RobertBrody8:
My samsung galaxy grand 2 has the same problem too.. no mic sound even I do factory reset nothing change.. and I bring it to Samsung service center because it still has a warranty.. The customer service said they replace the board and now its working.. :good:

How to change toolchain to linaro

That part of guide is for JB only!

If you want to change the original toolchain to the one made by linaro, to improve performance of your source built rom, donwload the toolchain from here: http://releases.linaro.org/13.06/co...ndroid-toolchain-eabi-4.7-2013.06-x86.tar.bz2

Then extract it, you will have the toolchain in a folder called "android-toolchain-eabi".

Move that folder to cyanogenmod/prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/arm/.

Now navigate to folder cyanogenmod/build and open with the text editor the file "envsetup.sh", go to line 151 and modify the line for arm toolchain as in this picture:

Now you can start building your rom with linaro toolchain! :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] elia222:
Build cm10.1

IF YOU WANT TO BUILD CM10.1 FOLLOW PART 1 FROM 1ST POST, THEN FOLLOW PART 2-3-4 HERE.

2) DOWNLOAD THE SOURCES:

mkdir ~/cyanogenmod
cd ~/cyanogenmod

This creates a folder named "cyanogenmod" and opens it.

Initialize the repo:

repo init -u git://github.com/STEricsson-Android/android.git -b cm-10.1-sony

This link is outdated, check here to get latest manifest for your rom: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=46290810&postcount=71

Download time!

repo sync

It will download about 10gb of data, so be patient!

Download the prebuilts:

~/cyanogenmod/vendor/cm/get-prebuilts

3) BUILD THE ROM:

. build/envsetup.sh && brunch name_of_device

Where "name_of_device" is again "kumquat" for xperia U, "nypon" for xperia P, "pepper" for Sola and "lotus" for Go.

It will take some time (on my pc with 3GHz dual core and 4gb of ram about 2h30min)

If everything goes right the flashable zip of the rom will be in cyanogenmod/out/target/product/name_of_device/cm-10.1-XXXXXXXXX-UNOFFICIAL-name_of_device.zip :D

4) Install the rom on your phone!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Some other tips:

When you want to download latest fxp/cm changes open a new terminal and type:

cd cyanogenmod
repo sync

When you want to delete the build products (because something has gone wrong or you want to make a new build):

make clean

Then:

. build/envsetup.sh && brunch name_of_device

To start building again.
