[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jfriend33:
I'm sorry, but just cuz my phone has 2 gigs of ram, doesn't mean you get free reign. On my maxx hd, fb never had over 40 mb usage. Sure my phone is fast but it makes me hesitant to install more apps in fear of developing lag.

Sincerely,

A concerned android user.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doogald:
Memory is there to be used. What's the point of 2 GB of RAM if it's not used? I've had this phone for 40 plus days, I've never had lag. And I have the Facebopk app installed.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jesta192:
It only used 40MB on your old phone because it literally had no more to take. At least that's how it has been on all my phones until my DMAXX. I have almost 1GB free always on this phone, where my GNex would often drop below 100MB. I wouldn't worry (unless you want to complain to Facebook, the app *is* humongous).

Dear Friends..

Thank you for helping me to understand more clearly about RAM..

[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doogald:
On the screenshot he posted, that 109 MB is showing RAM used, not storage used. Notice at the bottom of the display - this is a report of RAM, not storage. Storage space is shown on the "Downloaded" or "All" pages.

Facebook for me the moment is using 58 mb RAM and using 37.58 mb storage.

You should have left up your explanation - it was a useful post. Way too many people misunderstand the difference, and I thought that you explained it well.

[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unbesorgt:
Facebook is a resource hog. My suggestion is to use a third-party app to access Facebook (if you can't switch to a better social network like Google+ instead :p). Seesmic and Hootsuite are two examples of free apps that can manage a Facebook account using far less RAM and storage. Then you can delete the dreaded Facebook app and never lose another Mb to it.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jfriend33:
Actually, I had plenty of available memory on my razr maxx hd at the time. It could have used a lot more.

Anyway, that is a good suggestion to use a different application. I remember in my droid 2 days, I had a fantastic setup using Launcher Pro plus which had a sense theme to it. It had a home widget that I could refresh as I wanted, to fill with updates from facebook and twitter.

Then for a while I was using tweetdeck. It was nice because foursquare was part of it. I guess I haven't fooled around with any third party applications for a while. I will have to try that.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swagmaster420:
alright, so today at school we were gonna practice this thing that required music. the music was on my phone, but it was loud in the room so i installed the sound binaries from pimp my rom. when the option popped up asking if i wanted to wipe cache or...i cant remember...something about devs...or dvk or dv something lol, i didnt really know what the 2nd one meant, so i didnt choose one, i just clicked ok (Im really smart cant you tell) so it flashed the stuff, blah blah blah, then it booted up, and started the "android is upgrading optimizing the apps", etc. then, it said "starting apps." it did this for about 15 minutes. nothing happened, so being the smart person i am i powered it down by holding the power button. now it stays on the X infinitely and when i try to go into recovery mode, it vibrates but stays on the x (i let go of the power+volume up+volume down after it vibrated.) about 15 seconds later it vibrates again, and then 20 seconds later, it boots up to a black screen that says "complete action using Gmail, go sms pro, or drive (google drive.) If i tap on anything, it gives me the message "unfortunately, android system has stopped" if i click report or ok, it immediatly goes to the X screen again. also, whenever i power it down, it starts back up again even though i didnt press anything. the only way to turn it off is to hold power+volume down, and in the few seconds the screen turns off, hold down power+vol up+vol down. i cant get it to go into fastboot either using N-Cry toolkit, but i only waited for it to work for about 1-2 minutes untill i cancelled.

It is a nexus 4, running akop milestone 1, android 4.2.2.

rooted with N-Cry toolkit.

Please help me out guys! it took me forever to save for this phone, and dont reply to me like "you should of been patient" yeah i know! just tell me how to fix it! :crying:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swagmaster420:
nexus 4 wont boot or go into recovery or do anything (FIXED!)

EDIT:

OH THANK SWEET BLACK BABY JESUS I GOT INTO RECOVERY MODE LOL

i was doing it wrong.

i powered off, and held vol up/down and power at the same time.

it worked when i held vol up/down for a few secs then added power button, got to fastboot mode, then recovery. :D

now hopefully i can fix it without wiping my phone.

im gonna restore a nandroid i made a few days ago.

sorry if this is considered spam, this is literally the first time i have ever posted on any forum ever.

(I'm having surgery tomorrow.) I need to return my ATT S4 due to a mechanical problem. It has the stock MDL rom, but is rooted with TWRP recovery. I used the casual method to root and add the recovery. I only have 2 days left too return & exchange my S4. Could somebody PLEASE help me restore stock recovery & unroot?

Hi, I have not seen help for this anywhere. I attempted to install a custom ROM on my Atrix HD and ended up bricking it.

[Motorola Atrix HD] Neighbor808:
Oh man that username made me lol pretty hard OP! xD .. Not sure why but it's just so funny, thread content to username ratio is strong. Anyways my friend, I would try flashing to a good, stable ROM like CyanogenMod or Carbon and see if you SIM card is recognized, or simply remove SIM, reboot phone, and reinsert? This is a strange occurrence, I've RSD'd to stock 3 times never borked SIM. If all else fails flash a different radio? Or you can RSD again using the Mexican Retail Stock ROM (4.1.2) , that is the one I've always used and may give you better results. 4.1.1 may be the issue.

Qik Lite and Words with friends.

Now I already removed the YP (NOT YELLOW PAGES) and saw a second, different one (Yellow Pages 1.0) and I didn't uninstall it since it's tied to the rom. So in short:

Is it safe to uninstall Qik Lite, Yellow pages 1.0 (NOT YP) and Words Free (words with friends)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cyril279:
[MENTION=5292591]HeatSeekerism[/MENTION]

Is it safe to remove X app or Y app? since you're using titanium backup, the safest way to find out is to freeze the app instead of removing it (one at a time, so that if there's an issue, you know which it is). If you see any weird issues, then you can simply defrost the app. If there are no issues after significant use, then you can uninstall it completely, without fear of the OS needing it.

If you're looking for Stock TouchWiz without the extras, then I suggest I777UCMD8 cooked firmware.

Don't know about Qik Lite but Words with Friends is just a game, right?

Can anyone help, please :?:

The microphone on my car kit doesn't work anymore. When I make or recieve a call I can hear the person at the other end but they can't hear me :!:

I've tried the following to try to get it working again:

1. Replaced the microphone,

2. Replaced the kit complete (fitted a brand-new expansys kit), and,

3. Tried the phone in another car kit (O2 kit).

None of this worked and therefore the problem lies with the XDAII itself. I've upgraded the firmware recently to 2003SE and the phone worked OK for a time but then suddenly developed the fault described above. I've tried re-installing the original firmware but the problem remains the same.

If you have any ideas then could you please let me know. If not, could anyone suggest a repair centre I could try.

I used ViPER on my Note 2 and will not go without it on my Note 3. The first thing I did after rooting was install it. It's MUCH easier than it use to be. It's just downloading a 2 zip files, removing the 4.? apk's from them, placing them on your N3, installing them, opening them up. The drivers are auto downloaded now.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2191223

On the ViPER page [link above], go to the download section and download:

ViPER4Android FX

Important: v2.3.x update is special. Must read special instructions above!

FX version v2.3.0.1 (Android 2.3~4.3): MediaFire

Notice: Please install v2.3.0.1 as USER app.

and this

ViPER4Android XHiFi

XHiFi version v2.1.0.2-1 (Only Android 4.x): MediaFire

Note: Driver version will shown as 2.1.0.2 (See In-app Changelog and make sure there's 2102-1)

Extract the files to your desktop.

Copy

ViPER4Android_v2301_Android_4.x.apk

and

ViPER4Android_XHiFi.apk to your SD card and install them

Run FX/XHiFi app from drawer, allow root access.

When driver installation prompt, choose Yes to "Install/Update". (V4A auto detect and install correct driver)

After installation done, Reboot device.

Go into Settings/Device/Sound/Music Effects and select ViPER4Android FX

It's ready to go. Open up ViPER4Android FX and XiHiFI and enable both.

That was the easy part. Getting the sound the way you want it is the hard part. A lot of tweaking.

Anyone have any ideas on how, what to try ? ... what driver does it use (PC) ?

Custom firmware is the aim for me really, so do we have any devs working on this or is it a non starter?
[Sony Smartwatch] st3wy:
Google it bro, they held a convention in Germany I believe recently, specifically aimed at skilled devs 'hacking' the ssw2 as they have made the code open source, revealing Sony SDK and some other tools to the devs, even offering prizes to the top 3 apps created.

---------- Post added at 01:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:04 PM ----------

There's a lot of ppl working on this now but its early days and no guarantees, the question really is what do you expect to achieve from custom firmware? As long as the newly integrated apps keep rolling out, Sony will release their own fw and software updates to keep up with the pack
[Sony Smartwatch] Danny-B-:
Sorry i missed your reply ...

I'm not entirely sure what i want exactly, i just like to hack most devices i have ... unlock their potential, im usually unimpressed by manufacturers firmware efforts, especially when you sample what can be done sometimes ...

Anyhoo ... for anyone thats interested, i found this site http://lunarius.fe80.eu/blog/category/hacking.html which explains a bit about how to upload the firmware etc, sounds interesting, perhaps someone with a bit more knowledge than me can tinker ?

Hey man, the main issue i have with most smart watches is - they are not standalone devices, they are simply Bluetooth receivers to display your notifications.

[Google Chromecast] sorindobrin:
I got the Chromecast, have it set up without any issues...the only purpose of it was to use it with Google Play Music.

I was hoping that I can have the chromecast plugged into my Denon receiver and when I start chromecasting the receiver will notice the signal at that hdmi input, turn on and start playing the music.

Well,I cannot make it happen. At this point it works, but I have to manually turn on the receiver and switch inputs.

I have tried to have the denon on passthrough , which puts the receiver in a stand by mode...and when I start chromecasting the receiver acknowledges that and just turns on the tv (has CEC enabled), it doesn't turn itself on too.

What am I missing? Is the stuff that I want doable?

...maybe having the Chromecast plugged into the tv, instead of receiver ?

any suggestions are appreciated.
