[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] lanwarrior:
I have 2 separate Gmail account - let's just say abc@gmail.com and xyz@gmail.com.

I use abc@gmail.com as my primary account - Google Play apps purchase, email, calendar, GDrive, etc.

I use xyz@gmail.com as non-primary account - used for device registration.etc.

I have a Samsung account, which I used to register my Galaxy S4 Active, using the xyz@gmail.com (non-primary account).

Now I purchased the Galaxy Note 8.0, I want to get the perks ($25 Play credit) and in the Perks page, under "Device Identification", it asked for my "Gmail Address".

If I put my xyz@gmail.com email, will the $25 Play credit goes to that email address? I want the Play credit to go to my primary account (abc@gmail.com).

There's a lot of sites that said in their reviews that Xperia Z have FM transmitter and we can easily stream music to our car radios and etc.

Is there an app for this which we can use or this whole thing is "possible", but not "fact".
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ransz28:
Mine has the fm radio app!!! plug in headphones and boom you got radio!
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lewskarche1914:
FM radio app uses FM receiver, im talking about FM transmitter. With it, you can stream small radiostations with your own music.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SwannyBhoy:
I would like to know if this is fact. Im sick of having to buy a new transmitter every few months.

Last few weeks my Wifi has been very slow. Web pages take forever to load, facebook g+ ect, all take there sweet time. I have reset the phone, tried various rooms and nothing g seems to help. I have a 10mbit line so it's not my router or connection. Any ideas. I am using stock rooted tw rom 4.1.1

Do you get the same issues when you are not on WiFi?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Grnfinger:
The ping time is up and speed is down on network as well. Lte is not in my area so 4g is all I can test with
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] grenefroggie:
Up from?

Ping times on HSPA/+ are typically higher than LTE or WiFi.

Are they noticeably higher than before? It sounds like one thing you have no done is try rebooting your wireless router.

Another option, which I cannot personally confirm works, is tweaking your WiFi settings, specifically power saving mode in regards to the WiFi card in your phone. Make note that this could also lead to more battery drain with extensive WiFi usage (streaming and such).

In your dialer type *#0011#

This will bring you to ServiceMode. Hit Menu and select WiFi. Turn off WIFI Power Save Mode.

I doubt this will help, but you can try it.

Alternatively, you can boot in to Recovery and clear the cache on your phone.

Hello all,

Many moons ago I dropped my xda one to many times and damaged the pins in the connector.

I have seen a few similar posts regarding this, and O2s response is to generally replace the entire motherboard.

I finally got around to it, I pulled off the broken connector and soldered on a usb connector.

With great thanks to xda-developers.com, I deduced the pin layout drew up a plan and tried to do the soldering only to find it was too small for me. I took it to an electronics engineer and he did it for me to my specs and low and behold it worked perfectly.

w00 h00!

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] RAGOv:
Finally....someone did it :) .....

Great work Stephan...u gave me the courage to continue with my project(i'll post it later IF it succeded),since the Himalaya and the BlueAngel connectors are the same as for the Wallaby... ;)

Once again Stephan,thanx for doing what people may know,but no one dare to do ;)

Cheers...

No Probs

Good to hear! 8)

I am so happy to have my wallaby back!

I was glad we managed to secure the usb connector on the mb by the rear two lugs on the connector, it seems pretty solid. its a shame it sticks out about 5mm from the phone.

This weekend I will open it back up and take some better pics with my own camera, the above (taken with works camera) are pretty cruddy.

I think o2 had the right idea with the usb cable on the mini, 24 pins over 15mm is just too fine and delicate for something that gets thrown around so much.

Cheers!

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] bulat666:
as far as i know there isn't. But instead to use usb u can use serial port!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] fernandez81:
grazie per la risposta!! ma potresti spiegarmi come??

thanks for the reply! but you could tell me how?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] bulat666:
Well, you must tell me, do you have original himalaya connector with alive pins? The important pins for rs232 sync is from 6 to 11, and 16,17,18 for ground. If you want to acomplish full serial speed (it's not big, about 1 mbit/s) you must use all 6 pins. And if u want only to have sync (with small speed, about 115 kbit/s) u can use only Tx,Rx and GND. And if u want to charge phone over serial port COM1, u must use pin 20,21,22. But i can't tell u anything with right accurancy. U can use google for scheme of that cable and pinout cuz, the voltage of serial port is 12v and phone only accept the 5v. So u will also need a MAX232 circut wich will regulate the correct voltage for your phone... Sry for english and i am glad if this helps you!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AK47sForAll:
Alright, I've looked around and gotten some general ideas, but if someone could give me an exact method, or point to it, I'd be grateful because the answers I've looked up are all really pieces and not entirely clear.

Ok, so I ended up buying a Verizon Galaxy S III from someone (long story) with the intent of using it in Canada on Virgin Mobile. How would I accomplish this task? I see stuff about APN managers and flashing a different ROM from a certain carrier, but nothing is too clear to me or a complete answer. If there's anyone who could walk me through the steps to accomplish this I'd be grateful.

Thanks in advance.

I was messing around with S-voice today and I noticed that you can set a wake up command that will work on the lock screen and unlock the phone and open s-voice. Would it be possible to use the wake up command to open voice search (Google Now) instead of s-voice? It seems like it's possible to get semi-Moto X functionality but I'm not sure how.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hollywood084:
Topic says it all. Stock/CM/Carbon(Linaro)/DU's/pacman/codefire, it doesn't matter which one is installed, my device lags like a *****. I switched to nova launcher from apex (to see if the launcher was causing it all,) and the homescreen scrolls better, but opening apps, doing anything within apps, switching apps and anything not related to the launcher still lags like crazy. I've tried LagFix, different kernels, nothing works. I close apps using the recent apps tab, doesn't help. My GS2 performs leaps and bounds better than this phone. Am I missing something. Is there anything I can do to make this phone not suck? I really want to like the phone. I have the Sprint version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrgnex:
Try to go back to stock using fastboot and Factory image.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hollywood084:
I'll try that.

Running some side by side comparison's with my GS2 and GN using system panel, the GS2 always has over 200MB ram available, and the GN has 80 or less. I tried to make sure the same apps were opened (active) on each phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] staud:
That sounds like a factory reset including format system is needed.

Funny thing is i full wiped and flashed back to 4.1.2 from 4.2.2 and the phone was still lagging. Didn't think it was possible but 4.3 really fixed this phone for me. was battling the lag for over a year. Lagfix trim, filling all the free space and deleting all the files, tried everything that was recommended and nothing helped. Thank you google for finally releasing 4.3

the only lag from 4.3 comes from when I use google navigation. It gets bogged down pretty bad. I think that has to do with the undeniable fact that 1gb of ram is not going to cut it anymore with today's memory consumption from modern apps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Blown 89:
4.3 has brought a host of new problems for me. Lagging and force closes plus a lot of app problems. Enough so that I'm shopping for a new phone which sucks because I love the Gnex.

4.2.1

Android 4.2.1 was the last OTA that android released to my GNex. I put the Warped ROM on, and it was a lagfest, especially when I had all 10gb of my music on it. I had to wipe and reset to 4.2.1 before I could even put on another ROM without it freezing during startup.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ExodusC:
It seems to me like one of the big bottlenecks in the Galaxy Nexus's performance is the abysmal I/O performance.

If anything whatsoever pings the storage, it seems to stall the device. I've had the phone lock up entirely requiring a battery pull by doing enough read/write, something I can't do to older and newer phones I own. Just the Galaxy Nexus.

TRIM in 4.3 helps mitigate it, but I think the fact is something is seriously awful in the Galaxy Nexus I/O stack, presumably on the hardware level, since this is the only device I own that has this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hollywood084:
My 4.3 install was acting up (data issues... :\) so I went back to stock 4.2.1 with golden kernel. Phone is running pretty smooth. Seems like the fastboot factory reset did the trick so far. Funny thing about it, I just now realized I flashed the 4.3 kernel. Phone is running really well, so uhh, whatever haha.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devwithzachary:
Hello guys,

I have been donated a Desire Z, the guy that sent it had not used it in a year or so and the battery was completely flat.

So I want to charge it but on inserting the USB cable the phone just vibrated 7 times and shows no sign of charging. Now some searching around as found that this is a common way for an HTC device to say its bricked and completely dead.

But seeing as a got the phone for free and do love a challenge I would like to see if I can get this bad boy to boot and running again.

I have ordered an external charger and new battery which should be here on Monday so I can rule it out, so all that leaves is to work out what could be the root cause.

I am opening this thread for two reasons

1) If any owners have been in the same situation as me and been able to get it boot again to post about what they did to get it there (not including sending it in for fixing thats boring!)

2) To keep a record of my progress in getting the device going again in the hope it might help over Desire Z users or even HTC devices in general.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devwithzachary:
31/08/13

So currently the device will not power on at all and just vibrates 7 days when plugged in, seems battery is 100% flat so getting a new one and a external charger to at least have a working battery to see if I can get it to turn on at all

Been looking into the issue and it does seem the only solution might be to get a JTAG unit to get the device going again.

Tomorrow Shall be braking the device down and having a look if their is anything visibly wrong with the board etc.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devwithzachary:
Long story short its completely dead :(

So until I can find a replacement on ebay or something I shall be Desire Zless, sad times indeed

If you are using a custom ROM, you can bet your ass it will be obsolete.

None of the devs except maybe 2 in the whole community have stuck with a device they are developing for once a new one comes out. They'll abandon users as soon as something new comes out.

I actually came to this forum to see if there was a stock 4.3, because I'm sick and tired of devs who walk out on their users.

Any ROM developers reading this: Yes, this most likely means you.

The DONATIONS you give these guys gives them enough money to get something new; that means, you paid for your own demise.

I'll probably get some flak over this comment, but I've been a member since 2006, I see the trends.

The whole paying for your own demise is unfair too, these guys put hours of effort & probably stressful nights into these ROMs & upload these ROMs for FREE but the option is there to DONATE if you would like to. I have only just got a 2012 n7 & hope to learn enough to keep it running as long as the hardware will last. If you want to keep custom ROMs in development have a go at it rather than sitting back & waiting for it serving up on a plate for free & being ungrateful for what you have actually been given. Remember these guys have lives & jobs & families outside providing FREE ROMs for you.
