[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbeezie:
Course bear in mind that my opinion is of course going to be bias'd by the fact that I actually have one :P. I own both a Nexus 7 and a Nexus 4, my mom owns a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0" which she's content with (she likes the Nexus 7, but wanted a front side camera).

I mainly got the Nexus 4 because for a fully unlocked phone it was inexpensive (plus T-Mobile allowed me to get it at 17/month for 24 month, rather than paying up front for it, so I see it as paying a 60$ interest on a loan that I just pay off each month).

Also like the Nexus 7, the N4 is nearly impossible to brick, easy to unlock, easy to root, comes with a clean AOSP rom already which also has a strong developer community, and because I'm planning on writing android apps down the road I figured what better choice of a phone.

Also The nexus 4, like the Nexus 7 will most likely continue to get android updates to the latest version for the next 2 maybe 3 years since it's made by google (as I recall even the original Nexus One can still officially get Jellybean on it straight from Google). So being able to use the device with the newest android update for the next few years without having to wait on the manufacture to decide if they will was also a plus for me as a developer-oriented buyer.

(HTC kind of burned me on that last bit with my Desire-Z, since the DesireHD was supposed to get 4.0.4/ICS but last minute they pulled it from the list of devices that was getting it, but least quallacom came thru and thus why we have so many jellybean roms for the desire-Z now).

The main two things I would want from the samsung side would be

1) Removable/extendable battery

2) microSD slot.

The one thing I don't like on the samsung... propriety USB/Power cable, why can't they just use microUSB or miniUSB like everyone else... but then again they do tend to mimic Apple to some degree.

#2 isn't as big a deal for the Nexus7 because I can just plug a thumbdrive into it via a USB-OTG cable, if for some reason I needed to copy something or perhaps play a large movie off the thumbdrive). Also the TWRP recovery natively supports USB-OTG so when I do a backup or restore, it can do it directly to/from a thumbdrive, without having to fill space on the device. Nexus 4 can do USB-OTG too, but requires a Y-split cable so you can plug up a portable power pack, since it won't provide power out of it's USB port like the Nexus7 will

I am fairly new to flashing Roms but one thing I noticed after my first flash from stock (Nil's sense 3.6) was that my Bluetooth headset started announcing the callers name when a call was received. Went to Nil's 4.0 rom and lost that feature.... Switched to infection 2.5 and it still did not work. Now I have been on the 5/29 release of xenon hd and it has that feature again. Thinking about making a switch again just want to know what to look for to get that feature.

I have always used the kernel that came with the Rom and looks like Xenon Hd has a stock kernel. Is this a kernel feature?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cimourdain:
Hi all,

I've adopted JB for few months now, i'm very happy about all the roms I've tested so far except for one point: the camera.

All of my pictures have a "whitish" effect. While on ICS (i've tested a lot of roms), i never experienced this.

Do you know how to correct this, camera settings? camera tweaks? etc.

Exemple:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cimourdain:
As in ICS, i didn't modify any settings, except for the flash on/off i almost never change anything. I mostly use my phone to take "instant pictures", you know the moments where you don't have half an hour to modify settings.

My settings are:

-Flash : off (most of the time turning it on gives me plain white picures)

-ISO: Auto

-exposition: 0

-A/W

-HDR: OFF

I just compare the result with my friends pictures (same moment, same angle) and with SGS, Nexus or Iphone 4 their pictures are way better looking.

thank you for your answer

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j1ra:
Hi all,

I am new to this forum and if I have posted anything wrong or annoyed anyone, please let me know nicely.

Background:

I am very new to andriod (have not used it before) and I am very interested in learning to use it very well (including rooting it). I can write some programming language but I am not familiar with java or anything as fundamental at all, but I am sure I can learn it.

At the moment, I am planning to buy a nexus 7 to build up my android experience simply because it is not expensive and it should run the latest available Andriod being a google device.

Question:

At the moment, I am studying for a professional qualification (with BPP), and their online VLE (Virtual Learning Environment) is extremely annoying on browser, what is even more annoying is that they have "security" to the online streaming lectures, I cannot download them (even with softwares) nor stream them on tablets.

I was wondering if streaming these videos would be possible on a (moded) android? - I have put as much details of the type of streaming below

Dilemma:

Another totally off topic question is regarding nexus 7 2. Should I wait? I was thinking of just buying a 2nd hand or refurbed nexus 7 first and then cut the loses and buy the 7 2 when it comes out. Opinions on this would also be appreciated!

Reference:

Details regarding the videos - this is from their FAQ regarding the videos:

If you still cannot launch the online lectures please run the three diagnostic tests linked to below. Allow each test to complete and then take a screen shot of each result screen. Paste each screen shot into a single document and upload the document with the screenshots when you submit your issue to us using our Contact Form. Some of the tests may take a minute or so to run. Please wait until either 'Test Completed' appears or the flowplayer spinning circle is replaced with an image.

Check your bandwidth using the bandwidth speed test

We use a high compression ratio to make the size of our online lecture files as small as possible. However, to prevent poor quality there is a limit we can go to. This means that anyone launching one will need a minimum download speed of 512kbps. If you have less, then you may not get smooth playback. Carry out a bandwidth speed test to check what your download speed is.

Check you have streaming access using the protocol test

We use RTMPE and RTMPTE protocols to securely stream video to your browser. RTMPE is tried first. If this fails then we try to use RTMPTE. One of these protocol types needs to be enabled. This may be the reason why you can't see anything load. To test for these two protocols please run the protocol test.

The last test is the port test

The ports used for streaming are ports 80, 1935 (TCP) and your default port (normally set to 443). If they are not open for the streaming servers we use then you won't be able to see the lectures. To test the ports please run the port test.

If you need more info please ask - I am very keen to get this working, as I will need it for the next 3 months...

Thank you all very much in advance
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khaytsus:
So this is a very poorly disguised question about "How do I download a stream" which has absolutely nothing to do with the Nexus 7.

I suggest you contact the folks who administrate the streams to see if there are other alternatives.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j1ra:
Hi, khaytsus. Thanks for your advice, they say "it can be viewed via streaming and on a computer only" and thats it.

I was just wondering if anyone would have any ideas around it. I'll try edit my thread and move it to a more appropriate place..

Has anyone experienced this and possibly have a solution?

It's not locked, just the powerbutton isn't working. It will come to live in the cradle and if you get a phone call right ?It's a non compatible program in ext rom. Clear ext rom and re-install programs one by one.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] henrypootel:
I was flashing a new ROM onto my phone today (MoonROM) and has some trouble doing it - things seemed to have gone OK, but i realized that i had set something wrong in the AROMA options, so i re flashed to get the correct setting.

After reflashing, my phone wouldn't boot - it just sits at the 'title screen' indefinitely - black, with white text saying "Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-N7105".

I booted into recovery and clearing my cache + Dalvik - still nothing

Into recovery agian and flashed my previous ROM (Hashcheck hybrid) - still nothing. just sits at that title forever.

I have since tried reflashing the stock rom using ODIN, flashed several different roms in recovery, and tried several different recoveries (TWRP, CWM, and PhilZ). still no luck.

What else can i try? Have i somehow bricked my phone? And if I have, what can i do to get it working again?

Hello everyone,

when i upgraded my phone to this rom, the power was working fine and normal.

Recently the power decreases from 100% to 35% in two minutes, which is weird and it takes forever to charge. I have ordered a new battery to test, but i was wondering if it was a software issue?

PAC version, 22.1.1

Android version 4.2.2

Thank you in advance
[HTC Desire S] jugg1es:
Install bbs and check no apps are draining your battery, turn your phone off to charge it a couple of times. You should be able to have a basic log to look through after a couple of hours, Let bbs run through a couple of charge /discharge cycles before looking deeper into the logs. I do suspect it's your battery though.

Jokes gets more serious thought, than serious words these days:(

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DaRk-L0rD:
That's pretty strange. Ics was the one giving problems with calls. Did you made a factory reset (you will loose all your data). Factory reset is recommended when you change os.

Anyway, if you want to downgrade to ics, download the ftf file from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=37050276

Download flashtool (Google it) and follow the instructions. There is also a tutorial on YouTube on how to use flashtool.

Notice that downgrading you will loose all your data mate.

So I recommend you personally since you will loose your data anyway, to make a factory reset and see if everything is working. Just my opinion bro
