[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
So I ported my number from Google Voice to Net10 and grabbed an AT&T micro SIM for my Nexus 4, everything seems to be working fine (voice, text, data, and sending MMS messages) except I can't receive MMS messages no matter what I try... I have tried tons of combinations of APN settings and nothing seemed to work, This seemed like a common issue that most people could get around with Handcent or GoSMS so I tried Handcent and about every possible combination of manual MMS settings in the app I could find, still can't download MMS messages. If anyone has any insight here, that would be great.

On the other hand, I stopped and talked to a salesperson at the AT&T corporate store here, he is pretty sure everything would work properly if I got a micro SIM for Go Phone and used the $60/month unlimited talk/text and 2GB data plan. Anybody tried this and have any issues?

EDIT: So after messing with NET10 tech support for almost 4 hours off and on, speaking to two technicians and a "supervisor", I was told my APN settings were correct, my account was rebuilt twice (or so they said, they had me reboot twice as I did lose all connectivity twice), I could not get MMS receive to work, and they never once strayed from the APN settings on their website (New AT&T) because they said my SIM was too new and not compatible with the old settings, except that with my device I need the APN type field of default,supl,mms to work properly. There final answer was my device was not compatible with their MMS service... Here is the final email I got:

Guess I will play with it some, and if all else fails, AT&T here I come.
[Google Chromecast] Cothek:
I have been trying to get my chromecast to work correctly on a wifi network tethered from my GNex and I was hoping to gather info from others trying the same.

So far to get the chromecast to show up on my tethered network I had to set it up on a standard network first. Once it had updated to the latest version it then works on the tethered network. This means that I can see the chromcast from other devices on the tethered network.

What I am trying to achieve is to use my GNex as the wifi hotspot AND connect to the chromecast. With the newest update this has been working but only with Play Music. I have tried RemoteCast and that works but Netflix, and Youtube do not. Bubble uPNP does not recognize the chromecast either.

Anyone have similar/different experiences?

It seems like the issue is that the apps are not recognizing the chromecast's broadcast on a tethered (ip isolation) network.
[Google Chromecast] Legacystar:
I was using hotspot on my gs4 and everything worked fine. I think the gnex tether is booked because I still can't use it on a windows PC, only other android and iOS devices.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sahm:
well i think this would be an odd topic with all the unlocking talk going around...but this is exactly what i want to know...

how do i lock my imate jam i mean how many locks could be put on the phone and the pda itself...powerfull locks so no one would be breaking those except for u guys xda-developers.com

is there a way to bootlock it like the one a PC has? you could just put a password for booting

and how does the sim lock work? i tried the option given in my phone which says "Require PIN when phone is used", but that is just for MY sim and it wont lock the whole thing. so basically what i want is a lock that would not allow any other sim to work in my phone.

thanks
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] RAGOv:
hi...

simply...go to settings/personal tab/password,and lock it :wink:

it's too strong that it will prompt password after each soft reset,and if u put 0 minutes near "prompt if device unused for",will prompt password each time u turn on ur phone(after standby).....

it cannot be hacked....without....HARD RESET... :(

so i guess,ur looking for something stronger.. :wink: ,or u think it's enought???

RAGO :lol:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sahm:
stronger one

well that is i think the weakest one i mean it just needs a hard reset im certainly looking for something stronger
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SysAdmNj:
So I saw some youtube vids of this phone and it looks smooth with its on screen nav buttons, and heard rumors of it being like next nexus. The only other lg phone I had was the nexus 4, battery horrible. So how do you think battery life will be on this device? How about camera in low light? I really like the tap to wake up device, but is it accurate? It didnt seem to work with initial tries. How about led? Are they color customizable with an app like lightflow? I understand root is available but what's lg's rep with unlocked bootloaders or finding exploits in these lg development forums as well as development on these devices? Of course if anyone has tried the sgs4 and can compare it as far as my questions go. Or should I just wait for the moto x dev edition? Or even the next nexus? I'm not too crazy about the moto x and the next nexus if prices are as reasonable as previous versions I'd get regardless later on.

One more thing that kind of impressed me with this device is that it seems to be real customizable just stock.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dc82:
I have the AT&T LG G2 as well as Xperia Z Ultra and I can say the G2 feels every bit as fast. Which is to say it's easily the fastest feeling device, tabs included that I've ever used. Camera would be above adequate for 98% of the population. Battery life has been great so far. As far as bootloader is concerned, I'm not sure if LG is sending phones bootloader unlocked from the factory anymore, I had the LG Spectrum which was but I dunno about the G2. Rooting and such has never been hard, it's been building a steady development community for otherwise great hardware. To me, this is the best feeling phone in hand that I've used,and I've used just about everything. There are many points of customization on this device both functional and aesthetic. Screen is very impressive as well. Colors are clear and pop without the exaggerated or over saturated look typical of AMOLED displays.

Hope that helps.

Does this support external microsd card? What size does it come with?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dc82:
No external sd card support. 32gb of internal storage.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dchibro:
I'm sure that it'll support external SD cards, but it comes with 32GB internal with about 24GB available after the preinstalled OS and Apps.

Edit - I was slow on the draw. No external SD support? That surprises me.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ascertion:
Just to clarify - AT&T version does not have support SD cards.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SysAdmNj:
No removable battery as well? That must be the international version I guess?

How are you guys liking this lg g2?

I'm thinking of picking one up later but off contract.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dc82:
Att version has no sd or removable battery. I'm very happy with the much. Best android I've used to date. Xperia Z Ultra is my favorite overall but that phablet would be simply too big for most. So the G2 takes it for me all things considered.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SysAdmNj:
Are these at the store yet? Or you ordered a pre-release version through mail?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dc82:
They are available as we speak as per my local store, but I pre ordered mine so I got it pre release.

One thing I don't miss from the S4 is the hardware buttons. On screen buttons are a nice touch. Also even though it is plastic, this phone feels much more high quality.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Itseden123:
So i unrooted my phone through SuperSU and flashed offical samsung firmware,but i didn't wiped data and cache,and didn't wipe binary counter.

When i go into download mode it says i downloaded 1 custom rom but the current firmware it says samsung official and official in the last option.

And in the settings it says device modified.

Will i have any problems downloading official updates or any other problems besides warranty?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MBariya:
Check for binary counter, if it is "1" then you have to make it "no"

You have to make it "no" using triangle away app. But it requires root.

So root your phone.

Use triangle away

Make binery counter to "no".

Unroot through superdsu.

Wipe data and cache (it will make last option system status to official)

Reboot phone.

Done ready for warranty and official updates through OTA.

But you can flash stock rom through odin for double confirm of unroot.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] eyecon82:
never seen another user complain about that one...that is definitely an issue id want fixed via warranty

did you try to do a hard reset? like brand new out of the box?

if it still persists then...then its def hardware
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] pbarrette:
I've seen this before on other tablets and laptop LCD screens.

It's almost certainly a hardware problem. The display cable that connects the screen to the mainboard is either coming loose or nearly broken.

In your case, it looks like the cable or connector is being shifted when you shake it. When that happens, the pins on the cable that carry the vertical data lines are being disconnected, so you see the horizontal stripes on the screen.

Eventually, or through another shake or touch, the failing cable makes contact again and everything seems to work fine. Until the next time it happens.

This problem is only going to get worse and more frequent over time. It's definitely a warranty issue.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] HarpingOn:
Hi. Just noticed.

Been running rc2 since it came out, but only just realised I have no contacts app. Is there supposed to be one in this Rom?

Can search my contacts through gmail or messaging app.

If there is supposed to be one, how would I go about getting it on? This Rom is being super stable for me right now, don't really want to re flash if I don't have to.

Thanks :)

Barnes & Noble is currently selling the Touch for $59 and the Glow for $79.

Target has advertised the Glow for $79 but the Touch seems to be the regular price of $79.

Still, who knows if Black Friday might have some good prices.
[Nook Touch General] amjl2000:
in UK, Argos are reducing the NST with Glo to £49. I guess the normal NST is still £29. Expect other retailers to match pricing.

An excellent deal for the glo version, as before there was a £40 difference between the two models... all for a couple of LEDs ;)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hublee91:
Hello, peeps!

So I was when starting an application, my phone doesn't respond. Tried the power button and it didn't work so I removed the battery and placed it back in.

Here's when my nightmare starts. My phone is stuck at the "GT-N7000" screen, and I cannot proceed further. I'm unable to start Recovery Mode (Vol Up + Power + Home), and only Download Mode works.

However, I tried flashing stock roms, Odin showed no progress even after almost 2 hours.

What seems to be the issue? Is it a hard brick?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
Questions should be in the Q&A section.

Is odin able to detect the phone.. ( the port square in odin turns yellow/blue?).

check if there are any Kies processes running in the task manager.. kill them, restart odin and restart phone in download mode and try again.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hublee91:
Hi, how do I move the topic?

Odin is able to detect it. Checked and no Kies processes running at all. :(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
where is Odin getting stuck?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hublee91:
stuck at the NAND Write part, and the progress bar shows no progress at all (the green bar thing). Could this mean hard brick?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
do you have warranty? If yes, take it to Samsung and tell them to rectify it. If no warranty then, you will need to get into recovery may be by flashing a kernel using odin.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hublee91:
Wow...thank you for such quick replies!!

Nope, no longer in warranty..Can I have a link to the kernel file?

Thank you so much!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
Before you go about this.. try a reboot PC, reboot download mode phone. try a original USB cable and main USB port of pc and flash again,

If above still stops at NAND

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1901191

look for a tar.md5 file which is odin flashable. If you remember the build number of you phone, then pick that else get any JB kernel and flash using odin. check if odin gives a pass.

you dont need to select it everywhere... just the PDA ONLY.

1. download http://d-h.st/FVh.. this is a PIT file.. select it in the PIT partition. Check it and also repartition.

2. select the kernel file in the PDA..

3. press start... (you will need to reboot into download mode every time to start flashing. so remove the battery.. reboot into download mode.. (vol down+home+power)... after you get the screen volume up to continue.. once the screen shows DOWNLOADING, then connect to pc .. open odin
