Hey you have to pay more or less doesn`t matter there is no way to unlock these smartphones for free. I used phoneunlockingshop dot ca for unlocking my canadian phones

hasy any w8's users tried downgrading the modem and then tried region lock apk? it works on the S4, just wondering if it works on the note 3. So am i correct in saying there is no manual/free way to unlock the Note 3 anymore?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
I have never come across a free method to sim unlock the phone. I searched for a long time before finally buying an unlock code.

I'm not sure if downgrading the modem will work. Also, certain modem/bootloader combinations on an s3 can hard brick the s3 and I'm not sure if the same would apply to the note 3.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] BlackHayze:
Anyone using Illusion ROM here? I just flashed it today and the battery life seems pretty poor, which is a shame since it's such a nice ROM.

I've read that you should wait a few days after flashing before really judging a ROM's battery life, anyone who's used Illusion before, can you confirm this? Or anyone more knowledgeable in ROMs than myself, who just started flashing ROM's a few days ago haha.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tocarval:
Hello! I have a Galaxy Note 3 and the screen is awesome and seems to be without problems when I use it, but when I look at it at an extreme angle, I can see a dark spot. It gets darker in one certain area of the screen. Is this normal? I can't see it in a normal use but it bothers me to know that the screen has that. When the screen is off, if I look at it at an extreme angle I can see that the screen is different in that area that I talked before. The same area that gets darker when the screen is on and at an extreme viewing angle. When looked straight on it looks normal and beautiful, without any problems. I hope you can help me! Thanks

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tocarval:
No, it only has 1 month and was never dropped and never been crushed. Apparently the screen is normal, you only see the "defect" when you look at an extreme angle.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WheresTrent:
I have an unrooted & stock TMo G2. I'd like to keep it unrooted and stock, for now. I use SwiftKey as my keyboard. With the bottom nav bar being on all the time, I find that I constantly end up tapping home or back when I'm going for the space bar or a letter on the bottom row. I switch out of whatever app I was in and usually end up launching another app (or two) in the process.

I don't want to hide the nav bar, so I was wondering if there's a keyboard out there that maybe adjusts the height between the bottom keys and the nav bar. I looked at some of the top ones in Google Play and they don't seem to have this feature, or I didn't look hard enough. An extra 1/8th or 1/4 of an inch would be fine for me.

Thanks in advance.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joeliotta:
I couldn't agree more. I always had the same problem with my HTC One as well. One alternative (one that I don't like but perhaps you will) is undocking your SwiftKey. The new SwiftKey will allow you to move it off the bottom all around the screen and away from the navigation bar.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rougegoat:
I recently realized that I use no root requiring apps or custom ROMs on my Nexus 7(while I keep my phone rooted for many a reason). Now that I hear the 4.4 update is being pushed, it occurs to me that all keeping a custom recovery and root on my tablet does is complicate updates. So I want to unroot, return my recovery to the stock, and get myself all ready to wait for the update to push out. What would be the best way to do this that does not require me to lose data/game saves/have to reset everything up?

hi i am on stock 4.3 & recovery no system apps removed at all, bootloader unlocked, am i safe to take 4.4 OTA?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] langhaardack:
Yes, should be safe.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnlittle88:
I am sure this has been answered somewhere and I did search the forum before posting but right now i am pretty excited about 4.4 and would like the experts to answer this regarding grouper :-

I got the 4.3 update OTA on a rooted 4.2. I later rooted the 4.3 but did not remove any default apps. I also have frano kernel installed and TWRP recovery. Does the kernel and custom recovery affect the OTA process? Am i safe for 4.4 OTA? or shall i unroot, install stock kernel and also stock recovery?

Thanks
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] langhaardack:
You should be fine if you install the stock recovery before the OTA arrives :)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cyber Warrior:
Open the SuperSU app on your device.. Go to the app settings and select the option to unroot/clean up.. Reboot. That is all.

---------- Post added at 10:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:32 AM ----------

Yes, you'll want the stock kernel and stock recovery installed.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootTheMachine:
On grouper, it can update independent of changes you have made to the system and recovery. This isn't true for all other nexus devices, for example, mako. Doing the 4.4 update will get rid of root for you, but it will flash fine even if you have a custom recovery. You may need to flash stock recovery manually if you don't want custom recovery anymore.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rougegoat:
In the past, that has failed for me. I'm still one update behind on 4.3 because it would not install and I was too lazy previously to unroot and get it to install.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rougegoat:
Do you know where I can find the recovery itself? Only ones I find in my searching are TWRP and Clockwork.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikefletcher85:
Did you ever find the stock recovery? I'm looking to unroot without losing my app data..

PS, sorry for bringing this back from the dead, but it is exactly what I am looking for.
[General Questions and Answers] ohallen:
So my question is what is better in terms of stability/performance

So lets say i had a Android device that has 4.1.x or 4.2.x (doesnt really matter) phone that is rooted and is flashing an android 4.3.x root rom

vs.

the same android device but instead already had Android 4.3.x installed and using an android 4.3.x root method

Question 2:

What if both were running the same custom rom like PA or CM

I was on Ripper Rom v3 and I have suddently noticed the problem, so I have flashed to Stock 4.2.2. After this upgrade I thought the problem could have been gone, but it's still here. I have tried over roms like SungSonic HD v5, MicroDelta Stock 4.1.2 and CyanogenMod 10.1 Android 4.2.2 ! Still the same thing :(

I NEVER INSTALLED ADAWAY, ADFREE OR WHATEVER SIMILAR !!!

I have a dual car charger that I used for my Nexus 4 and Nexus 7, now when I plug the Nexus 5 it charges fine, but if I use maps or Waze it does not give enough power to charge it and keep the Nexus running, I actually see a slow power drain on the battery, example this morning on the way to work I plugged the Nexus 5 and it was at 87% charged, I turned on GPS and waze a started my drive to work about 45 minutes later arrived at work and the power was at 83%, small drop but it tells me the charge cant keep up, anyone recommend a good charge to use in the car that can charge as I use GPS maps etc ?

I have been contemplating using a wireless charger for my car.

http://www.amazon.com/UPGRADED-Wire...id=1384311056&sr=8-1&keywords=nexus+5+charger

I don't mind plugging in my phone into a wired charger at night but thought it would be cool to have a wireless one right underneath the radio receiver in my car. That way I don't have to bother plugging it in when I get in the car and can just lay it where I normally do anyways while getting a charge.

That one only measures 3.6" x 3.6" so it would be perfect.

Am I the only one?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] D3_:
I've got the same issue with my Anker charger, which is a 2A charger and worked brilliantly with my galaxy note 2. I also checked it with my friend's s4 and the galaxy charge current app, his s4 pulled 1.5A from it so I have no idea why the nexus 5 doesn't charge properly using it.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dwaltuberalles:
A couple of things to look at first before you throw your charger out with the bathwater. When you charge, does the settings -> battery screen say charging (AC) or charging (USB)? It is my understanding that "USB" charging is supplied at a lower rate (~500maH) which is less than GPS, screen on and Waze may consume. Charging (AC) is much higher aka "fast charging". If you use a data USB cable on DC, Android phones have been known to default to the lower USB charging level. I had the same in-car battery drain problem on my N4 and switched to a power only cable and it solved the problem, YMMV. You can modify a data usb cable by shorting pins or you can buy a power only USB cable. Search amazon for PortaPow and it should pop up.

I've seen car mods where the some guys placed it under the change slot, the slot right in front of the shifter that also has a cigg lighter adaptor aka 12V adaptor. Also where they've placed it directly under the cup holder. I'm thinking of getting a DT900 and wiring it under the change slot and have it just sitting in there.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] D3_:
I've been in contact with Anker support over this. After them telling me the phone must be using over 2A and that's why it's not charging while plugged in to the Anker charger and me dismissing that as the stock AC charger is 1.2A and works fine, I got this reply:

Anyway after reading a few of the newer comments here I decided to check whether it was being detected as AC charging or USB charging, which would explain the issue, but the phone reported AC so I have no idea why it won't charge properly. Probably something LG/Google implemented to prevent overheating.

And one more vote for this charger. I have been using it for over a year and it works great with all the phones I've had, including the Nexus 5. I also use Waze and stream Spotify while in the car, and a good charger (like this one) will always leave you with a positive battery %.

I'm in the UK and use a New Trent Arcadia charger (Amazon link) in the car, which did a good job with my previous phone, a Galaxy S3. I have not really used the charger with navigation in anger, just some short trips to test, and what I've found is that Waze seems to need a fair bit more power than Maps - as with the OP the battery level is still decreasing, albeit more slowly, while navigating with Waze. My charger appears to keep up with Maps, though.

With the S3, I did find that the charger did charge the battery more slowly when navigating with Waze than when navigating using Google Maps as well.

Shame, because for some journeys I actually prefer to use Waze.

With that in mind, though, I think the New Trent is a decent choice.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] kenyw:
I have put my recently acquired USB power monitor (one of the most fun things I've bought on Amazon this holiday season :)) to the New Trent Arcadia, and it seems that my Nexus 5 never draws more than 500mA from it, even though the car charger is supposedly rated for up to 2A, and the phone's charging status indicates 'Charging (AC)'. That might explain why it struggles to charge with the GPS running.

Since it's relatively inexpensive, I've bought the Anker charger mentioned earlier in the thread (Amazon UK link) and I'll post what I find with the power monitor.

Update:

According to the power monitor the phone is also drawing just 0.5A from the Anker adapter. At first I thought it might be the car power socket, but while I had the car running I used a 12V compressor to top up my tires' pressure and I'm sure that needs more power than charging the phone :P
[Nexus 5 Accessories] arimus:
I'm the OP, I bought the charger in post #9 recommended by Undercover (thanks by the way) it works, BUT, the N5 only charges and keeps charging with GPS enabled in one of the ports and only after I tested a few cables, When I got the charger it would not keep up charging if used the GPS, someone else here mentioned to check the cables because some of them charge in USB only and that is what was happening to me, so after getting the charger and testing a few cables I am now getting AC charging in the car. the N5 charges fine while using the GPS for driving etc.

Thanks everyone for the recommendations. :good:
