[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Umpal:
Hey mates!

I have a rooted and custom recoveried X8, which is not a big deal.

Also, it is 11W41 so according to what I've read its bootloader cannot be unlocked without hard brick the device. Am I right?

I'd like to know if there is a ROM that works on this little baby that does NOT require unlocking the bootloader.

Cheers

What is your favorite app for taking notes on the Nexus 10? I am looking for a good full featured app similar to supernote... because for some reason the apk download from another thread here always force closes for me. So what is your favorite notetaking app?
[Nexus 10 Themes and Apps] abdel12345:
I used to use evernote but then I switched to using spring pad. But I'm looking for a different one now too because springpad isn't good for school notes. So I might go back to evernote since it had the different notebooks you could make and stuff. For handwriting app when I need to do stuff like math I use paoyrus. Its great for writing and simple to use. You can zoom in on to the line and write big and then when you zoom back out it will look normal and just like your handwriting on paper so its a pretty cool app and its free.
[Nexus 10 Themes and Apps] AJ Bryant:
You can try Handrite or just use Google Drive. I tried many but end up sticking with these two.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezzkmo:
So I have the original Nexus 7. Love it! But I'm about 99% sure I'll get a Nexus 5. I do love the 7" form factor, but in your honest opinion (and I'm asking those of you who have owned 4.5 - 5 inch smartphones) will the size of the N5 be good enough to justify getting rid of my tablet? They both run basically the same software. I like to read a lot and play some games.

I'll probably hang on to both until I'm sure, but wondered if anyone had an opinion or owned multiple devices and your thoughts. Thanks!!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Watcher07:
Your question seems a bit vague to receive a solid answer. I can say personally, I use my wifi only Nexus 7 for reading books, watching youtube, browsing sites, research, etc., etc. when I know I won't be near a computer and don't feel like draining my phone battery. I use my Gnex as a phone, sms messenger, and all of the above items mentioned for N7. The N7 can't do what my phone does, and my phone isn't large scale enough for extended times spent doing all the things mentioned.

It really boils down to what you're using each for. Some people just don't need a phone but get big use out of a tablet, others don't have the lifestyle for a tablet and need a slightly larger phone.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rarscaryfrosty:
As the owner of a Nexus 4, and 7, I have to say that I love having both. I like to be able to surf the web on my tablet in the morning and at night on the couch, and it's a lot easier to use than a 4-5" smartphone. A smartphone is alright when I'm out shopping, at work, etc, but in the comfort of my own home the Nexus 7 makes a lot more sense the way I use it. The bigger screen on the Nexus 7 makes web surfing a lot more enjoyable primarily. I can access a lot of desktop websites more comfortably since they fit the screen ratio of a tilted Nexus 7 better. No need to zoom in either since text is usually large enough to comfortably read.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezzkmo:
That is helpful! I'm basically just wondering if someone who bought a smartphone let their tablet collect dust (since a phone does everything and more now). But you just said you still use your larger screen tablet for doing other things. Which is good to know. I'll probably keep both but man, I really need a phone and the Nexus 5 is looking great, just have to justify keeping my tablet which is only 2 inches bigger, but with lower specs and can't talk/text on it. Seriously, if phones start to become 6+ inches (like the Note) there is almost no reason to keep a 7 inch tablet too! :)

And thank you also Rarscaryfrosty! Very good advice! (N7 has crazy good battery life too).
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saturn1217:
I have a galaxy nexus and a Nexus 7 (2013). No they are not redundant. The Nexus 7 is much better for extended web browsing and reading ebooks than even a 5" phone would be (I suspect). And conversely it is nice to pull out your phone when you need to access info quickly or want to be less conspicuous about it. I bring both the Nexus 7 and GNex with me everyday and use both everyday. I will say that since my GNex is getting old it is kind of nice to have a back up device that has a longer battery. Back when I only had the GNex I would try to do all my mobile browsing on it (like 4hrs per day of straight browsing) and the battery barely held up. Now I do major browsing sessions on the Nexus 7 and I don't have battery life issues with either device because they share the burden.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eman3316@optonline.net:
I have an N4, my wife has an HTC One and we bought my son an N7. He is a little to young to play with it by himself so it is basically there for whenever we want to use it. I personally find no need for it and my wife never picks it up either.

We carry our phones with us in our house and that is our go to device. If you are into reading or watching movies then a tablet might be your thing and maybe even some games but for the things we do on a daily basis I always turn to my phone. If I need a good browser on a bring screen I just use my laptop in my home which is still a better browsing experience then a tablet.

If I did not have a child to buy the N7 for, I would not have purchased it for myself.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Caelrie:
Not redundant at all. The n7 is a the best ereader there is. The n5 is a phone. Neither does the other's primary job well.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eman3316@optonline.net:
I agree with this statement. A tablet is a great device to read books with. Otherwise I really don't see a need for it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Caelrie:
Yah, if I didn't read e-books, I wouldn't like my 7 as much as I do. It's good for gaming but my 10 is better. Same for Web surfing. It can be a phone but my phone is better. Reading ebooks, though... Nothing even comes close to a 7 for that and I read a LOT.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] force70:
I have and s3, s4, note 2 note 3 and just ordered the N5.plus I have two laptops and several tablets of different screen sizes floating around lol.

Theres times for various reasons you may want or need to use a device with a certain size screen..nice to have options.

So speaking as someone who has a few devices lying around..keep them both :D
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fisheyes1:
From my understanding, by entering my pin wrong enough I should get an option to reset my lock screen pin. I'm running CM 10.2 at the moment and I wanted to try this out just to be safe if I ever forgot my pin. But no matter how many times I enteredy pin it only made me wait, I got to about 35 wrong entries before giving up. No option to reset my lock came up. Is this a feature of CM? If not how should I go about fixing it.

If this requires a complete reset and clean ROM flash I'll just wait for 4.4. :)

Thanks guys!

Hello,

I got my lg g2 today and its great after 3 iPhones but the camera quality has been appaling. I changed it 13 mega pixels and it still sucks, i cant post images yet but its not pretty. The camera is very laggy when i try to use it unlike the rrst of the phone. Is this normal and if not had anyone cmgot a fix or experienced this? When.i used instagram it doesnt lag but is still poor quality.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buljo:
i too was very disappointed about the camera first. blurry, laggy etc. wasn't at all what the community and reviews told it to be. then the phone started rebooting randomly and i went back to the retailer and got a new one. random reboots is gone and this camera is everything i hoped for. like two different cameras.. would try to go to a retailer and compare pictures with another phone.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misterjunky:
You are not going to be a happy camper if you flash a different modem than

what you have now.

This is why NONE of these twrp/cwm flashable custom zipfile roms

found here in XDA contain any modem/radio images.

Modems/Radios are not interchangeable and if you do flash a modem you will

end up at best with a soft brick or at worst a totally unusable bricked phone.

Good luck!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toxina:
thanks for taking your time and replying to me, i'm wondering, that means i wont be able to use certain kernels which are meant for certain modems/radios?!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misterjunky:
re: kernels

Kernels are OK to upgrade as long as they are compatible with your

phone's model.

Always check and see to make sure that a custom kernel was designed

for your phone's specific model # before flashing.

Flashing the wrong kernel will not brick or soft brick your phone and it will not damage it but

it will cause unnecessary problems which can easily be avoided by flashing only compatible

custom/stock kernels.

Remember that clicking the "THANKS" button takes less time than typing "thank you". :)

there is a way to run little progs on the SIM so it's maybe posible to run a listener if conection is krypted and if its not krypted to place an alert.

For germen readers there is an interesting book "Martin Sauter - Grundkurs mobile Komunikationssysteme" in the end of the first chapter is explained how to build this SIM programs and how to interact with them.

in european networks there is a problem with capturing IMSIs cause tey are not often transmited mostly a temporary imsi is transmited and only the provider knows to who this timsi is related

And the location updates are procesed in a part of the mobile where the rest of the fone has no acces to.

But may you could make an external antena wich parses the bursts and looks for rejected location updates.

just some thougts, don't know if they are helpfull.

2) Can the note 8.0 S-pen tip be replaced?

3) Where can I find spare tips?
