[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eortizr:
currently the only way to watch 1080p videos in youtube using 4.4 is by installing a modified Adobe Flash apk and Dolphin browser, it works perfect.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheEndHK:
Where can I find that mod flash apk?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marleyfan61:
Is there really a significant, or even noticeable difference between 720p and 1080p on a 5 inch screen? Seems like a big deal is being made over a non-issue.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
It's not just for 5 inch screens though as tablets can experience the same issue. Also I think it can be noticeable seeing as anything HD on youtube is highly compressed and still far from true HD in the first place.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheEndHK:
Actually, Dolphin Pro does come with his own flash player build-in, it is possible to use it watches the desktop ver of youtube 1080P on any ver of android including 4.4 but it will kill your battery and very hot. lol

can anone tell me how to delete O2 Active without conflicting with orther software?

Thats to all for the help with my new xda mini s.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] jfran:
several options however the easier IMHO is to backup ur date, do a hard reset ( clear storage ) and after the screen alignment and selecting time zone choose the corporate mode or simply soft reset ( hole to the right below the IrDA screen / press and hold the power key longer than 4 secs) the device.

hope that helps.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] wilesd:
If you do the soft reset after the hard reset method you will need to manually setup all of the GPRS connections etc... and won't have the MMS app.

Easiest option I've found is to let the Extended rom kick in after a hard reset then when t gives you the Basic/Corporate/Personal setup option choose BASIC.

This method will create the GPRS connections etc.. and install the MMS application. all you then need to do is browse to Windows\Startup folder on the Mini S and delete the two O2 programs in there and do a soft reset.

Worked a treat for me anyway
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] tom99:
I'm very interested in doing this but from what i remember i was never presented with a choice on what type of install i wanted (basic, corporate etc)...?

What would happen if i just deleted the 02 active thing in the 'start up' folder? would that be sufficient?

Why wont going to 'remove programs' and removing it from their work? I heard you get error messages doing that?

Hello All :svetius:

I know some of this info is already around, but thought I'd share anyways. After a few FCC/FTC/Verizon calls about the Droid Maxx's lack of Google TTP, When the AWS update was coming, And the VZ /Nexus 7 fustercluck, I Finally got some information out of Big Red:eek:

They spelled my name wrong, So don't go stalking me :silly:

I have attached a PDF of the excuses Verizon gave me, And am linking to a YT video of the call I made with them and their explanations

It's on YT "My Call to Verizon Wireless"

Cheers. -Mike
[Droid Ultra General] opt05:
I've heard all of these excuses before, though valid and understandable, which make me sad...
[Droid Ultra General] mikeluscher159:
I agree, But Didn't Google say they might consider removing the "secure element" need, They would pose no obstruction:confused:

[Droid Ultra General] opt05:
God that would be the best day ever! :victory:
[Droid Ultra General] nimdae:
I would not use Google Wallet nor any other payment system without a SE. Using this technology without SE means your account information gets stored on the device storage instead. Even if encrypted, it's very easy to grab this information from the storage. The SE stores the accont info separately in an encrypted store that requires authentication from the associated app and unlocking by the user.

I believe Android 4.4 will introduce a new way to access the SE that is located on SIMSE cards using smartcard emulation, which seems to indicate to me that maybe Wallet on Android 4.4 may work with the SE in newer devices.
[Droid Ultra General] Casen:
You mean just as easy as someone stealing your wallet with the debit/credit card you link to Google Wallet? I don't understand this need for a secure element at all..
[Droid Ultra General] nimdae:
The difference is your wallet in the back of your pocket is not encrypted. Someone can lift your wallet and immediately start using the cards. I would honestly like to stop carrying cards in my wallet.

As for your phone, you must secure the payment app with at least a simple pin. Even if you don't secure the phone itself with a password or pin (as I do), the thief does not have access to any of your credit cards stored on the phone. You have time to do things like remote wipe (which will totally kill access to the SE, securing your credit card info) and cancel cards before they can have even a remote chance of using the cards.

However, if the credit card info is stored on the phone's storage instead, a thief doesn't need to steal your phone to get that info. All he has to do is get a malicious app on your phone that sends that info to the thief where he can then attempt to crack any encryption that may be there without ever needing your phone ever again.

While I'm in the same boat in being frustrated that Google Wallet will not allow tap payment on this phone for now, I would rather keep swiping cards without access to the SE.
[Droid Ultra General] Casen:
You know. I know Google play all access music is cached on my phone storage. But I cannot for the life of me find it. I'm thinking Google is hiding the credentials in a similar spot.

Also, for somebody to get a malicious app on my device... They would need to get ahold of it first.
[Droid Ultra General] mikeluscher159:
Wait a minute

Verizon "isn't restricting google wallet" Its just it needs Secure element that VZ phone's lack. What about the NFC "Secure element" ISIS ready SIM card?

If Verizon isn't blocking anything......

OTS/OTB Droid MAXX + Secure element SIM = Google Wallet & ISIS support?

This should be do able now, Don't even have to wait for #kitkatawaits

Can someone test this? Is my theory correct here?
[Droid Ultra General] doogald:
Google wallet tap to pay will still require secure element, but 4.4 adds an emulated secure element that jellybean lacks.
[Droid Ultra General] mikeluscher159:
The new SIM card has "Secure Element" Built IN to to it.

Is there 2 Different types of "Secure Element"?

If it makes ISIS work, Google Wallet should see it.

Could someone test this?
[Droid Ultra General] VandyCWG:
Verizon is controlling the SIM, and the secure element on it.

So, right now, Wallet Tap and Pay won't function.

Had the Verizon note 2 and loved it. Got stolen at work on Friday. Ordered a new note 3 as a upgrade. Spec wise no comparison. However, battery life seems a lot worse. Notification led is smaller. No auto format for stock web browsers. I hate the look of jelly bean 4.3. I don't like the white dialer pad miss my 4.2 jelly bean. I have 11 days left if I want to return it and get another phone. Note 3 is stock no root yet. Im comparing this to my stock note 2 before I rooted it and added greenify, root explorer, etc. Note 2 also seemed to have a way better battery management system compared to the note 3 stock. Granted the bigger screen, faster quad core and higher full hd resolution on the note 3 is probably the reason. I do have the processes limited to 4 and still have bad battery life on the note 3. Oh and last but definitely not least, the speaker sucks compared to the note 2. Thanks for any input guys. For me this is a first where I might actually want to go backwards in technology rather than forward. Question is, anyone go from the note 2 to the note 3 and wish they had gone back to the note 2?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] TechBSwift:

He says the flap is just for dust protection and that he continues to use it around water without it.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lownita:
It seems to me that users of white phones don't have that much problems with rattling buttons, strange vibrator noise or dead pixels than black users do? Or is it just a wrong impression?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grneyez:
I strongly doubt that, same parts are used only difference us the housing color.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skttrbrain:
Actually, there are some differences. The sides of the white one are glossy, but on the black they're matte. And the plastic on the back is also different. I wouldn't be surprised if there are differences in the build qualities.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grneyez:
I'm not talking about glossy or matte finishes, I'm sure they are not using different buttons for power and volume. Cosmetic differences have nothing to due with hardware buttons.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skttrbrain:
But the hardware buttons are placed where a different plastic is used. I'm not saying it IS the case, but it's absolutely possible that there are quality differences there. Not when it comes to dead pixels or anything screen-based though.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukas_s:
My white 32gb is flawless. No button rattle, no dead pixels, vibration is fine, speaker is acceptable.

And I also think the white one feels much better in the hand than the black.

But my observations/opinions really don't mean anything in this regard.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lownita:
Why the better feel? I know the white is glossy on the sides, but what is the feel on the back like? Is it also soft touch?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukas_s:
It's not soft touch. It feels like one of the Nokia Lumia Windows Phones. Just a matte plastic.

Or, if you've ever had this stuff: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fun_Dip, the back feels just like the candy stick does haha. Smooth like a pebble, but NOT like Samsung's plastic, which feels gross to me.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grneyez:
How do we know a different plastic is being used? Now maybe the white version is assembled in a different plant with better QC control. A friend of mine has the white version and he says there is some play in the power button also. I guess it all boils down to each persons opinion. Mine does not rattle, although I'm not one of those that shakes there phone looking for problems. To those that it bothers may want to look into a iPhone, there build quality is unmatched.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barry_:
If you want the 'normal' sms function then you will need to get a third party sms client (I'm using Handcent without any problem). Once you download, it is simply a case of selecting which service you want to use as your default.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magicriggs:
It gives you the option if you want to send it through hangouts or SMS (for each individual contact)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukas_s:
You all are making this WAY too complicated.

In Hangouts, press the + button. Search for the contact that you want to send an SMS message to (note, they must be in your People app for this to work). Simply look for the little bubble that says SMS next to the proper contact, click that, and voila.

Variantly, you can go to the People app, click the person you want to text, and then click on the little message symbol and it will pop you into a new message thread for that person.

I really don't like the G+ integration in Hangouts, as I don't use G+ at all. But I'll live with it.

Who can make a backup in TWRP of just updated official ROM 4.2 for k2_ul?
[HTC One SV] Bazdir:
I'm about to post it. Please be patient. :)

And please take a note, that for working it properly you need to have all the firmware.zip files (from OTA) flashed in Bootloader. So firstly rename the firmware.zip to PL80IMG.zip, put it into the sdcard (not internal memory!), then remove the SDCard from the phone (to prevent accidentally install it when not needed), reboot into recovery, restore the backup. Then insert your SDCard back and reboot to bootloader, it should search for PL80IMG.zip on the sdcard. When it'll find it you would be prompted to press VOL+ to accept it. Press it and wait until it'll be done, then press "Power" button when prompted. And you're done, the ROM should boot up.

And remember, that the bricks can happen and you're the only responsible about your phone.

[Nexus 5 General] miHah:
Hello!

I know there are some Threads about it already.

I've been searching the web (and xda) about hiding those Nexus navigation buttons in apps but with no success of what I want.

I have already posted this in Q&A but with no success.

REQUEST:

I want my navigation buttons to be ACTIVE on some apps, while I want those button to hide on the other apps with !!POSSIBILITY!! to activate them (indefinite, not only for some seconds) and deactivate when needed.

I don't want them to appear "above" everything like some apps and ways to do this offer. I want it stock, the way android 4.4 does this (eg. http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...go-truly-full-screen-hide-the-navigation-bar/)

With the latter I meant when on Home Screen - there should be transparent Button Bar (like stock 4.4) :) Not like apps that only offer full black :(​

Do you think it is possible? Or maybe modified ROM could offer tweaked and improved android 4.4 "Full-screen Immersive mode"

HERE

.
[Nexus 5 General] aeppacher:
Well considering the rom scene has yet to start up for cm or any other rom for that matter, I wouldn't hold your breath. I am sure it is possible, but I don't know if someone will make it, seeing as there isn't a huge demand for this. Roms like AOKP have features like autohide nav bar and swipe up to reveal but nobody has what you want (that I know of) and I don't think it will happen.
[Nexus 5 General] miHah:
Maybe you are right, but still I hope for a solution that would extend that Immersive mode to all apps.

I already found a similar solution app called Full!Screen. It does almost what I want with one exception - I want it to activate with a Gesture - Like swipe down with 2 fingers? and deactivate with swipe up from the bottom :)

I don't like any notification bar toggles

Maybe I can get it to work :P
