[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Solutions Etcetera:
It is Kit Kat issue on all devices that use the default Google Bluedroid Bluetooth stack, meaning Nexus devices and Google Play versions (other devices running a modified stack may not be affected).

Supposedly, it is an extension to Bluetooth AVRCP 1.3 that enables Bluetooth audio devices to directly control Android's system volume. It seems some genius thought two independent volume levels (headphone volume and handset bluetooth level) was too confusing for folks. Clearly they did not think about (or test) that some Bluetooth audio devices with their own volume controls might default to a very high or low level, and control of only the handset's bluetooth level would not provide sufficient range of adjustment.

So once again we have Goofle googing up bluetooth in Android. Please share your disappointment in the following threads so that we might see a fix ASAP. Guessing they are facing law suits for hearing damage if it is not addressed quickly.

[Moto X Q&A] Lazybox:
I have the sprint variant of the moto x ,it have sim block if it can unlock BL?and when i unlcok BL.i install rogers stock rom it can be able to use it on other carriers?
[Moto X Q&A] finalarcadia:
Sim lock has nothing to do with bootloader lock.

You'll need a code from sprint to unlock your sim. Or buy one from somewhere online. You'll need to provide your IMEI #.

Afterwards you can use any sim, no need to flash any roms. However, the sprint variant is limited to band 4 LTE.
[Microsoft Surface] sbdags:
Hi All,

I'm generally pleased with the performance of my Surface Pro and since the 8.1 upgrade my graphics card performance particularly in games has been stellar.

I do have one issue which is in win 8 when a game ran in a non native resolution the graphics card would scale the image to be full screen automatically. Since 8.1 I seem to have lost this functionality and most games and my citrix work log in only keep the resolution but draw big black borders around it when going full screen.

Are there some better drivers for the inten 4000 series that work well? I'm reluctant to try various version floating around the net as when I did this on Win 8 I had terrible graphics performance and couldn't get back to the original drivers without a full restore.

What is the best procedure for rolling back drivers to the OS inbuilt ones?
[Microsoft Surface] ShotSkydiver:
I've had the same issue with my Surface Pro 2, the only "solution" I've found is to set the display resolution in Windows to something lower than native, like 1600x900, then launch the game, and it should scale to full screen properly, no matter what the resolution is set at. Obviously a better solution would be much nicer, but this is the only thing I've found that works.
[Microsoft Surface] sbdags:
Thanks I've gone back to the 3316 dirvers from microsoft and these give better fps in some games. But the problem still persists so I'll try your solution! :good:

Hello

I've been trying to read up on different rootmethods and I was wondering if the "Root de la Vega" method works with android Stock android 4.3 and MJ7? I know that CF-auto root works with this version but that would trip my KNOX void. I've also been reading that some people got diffrent KNOX alerts after rooting their phone, does anybody know anything about this?

The mali v2 & 3 are graphic drivers..Check with your current rom what one its using...

8x kernels are compatible with JB and stock

9x kernels cm/aokp..

How can I check the driver version? I know that the GT-I9100 got the Mali 400
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gippy2:
Its whatever driver the rom is using ..Depends on what source code had been released thats why recently we got the mali 2 driver then v3...If you flash a v3 kernel with a v2 rom you most likely will get bootloop or blackscreen ..

Plus with dori kernel you can temporary lose root cos of googles wonderful (joke) se linux protection..Thats why you need to read and understand whats going on ..No tbeing funny with you but its all got a little complicated ..Dori only decided to implement the mali v3 around a week or so ago cos he is running slim rom ..and users like me wasnt able to use doris kernel anymore..If I can help you in anyway you can always pm me ...

Hi,

I just ordered THL W8S from a online shopping site. I just want to know whether it is a good bargain or not. I mean is phone good enough (Not good as Samsung and iphone obviously), but does it has a standard configuration to popular. I will appreciate your thoughts and feedbacks. Thank you
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zetvier:
I own a THL W8s because I would like to test a dual sim device. I used to utilize a Samsung S4 and an iPhone 5 but I think the W8s is very good value for money as you pay less than half the price for the other devices. The only thing is when you want to flash another ROM, you will have to spend some time for finding one.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gadgetlesstech:
I'll second the vote of confidence for this phone. The MTK6589T 1.5Ghz SoC is a good chip set that is pretty snappy and has good mltimedia capabilities. It also provides for great browsing ability too. This is one of my faves for the Mediatek SoC and the kernel version has been fairly stable on the devices that I have tested as well. I think you will be satisfied with your purchase providing you understand that Chinese goods can be qwerky at times. Good luck with her and enjoy!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lindsay02:
I saw a website published a THL W8S ROM. Here: http://www.thlmobilestore.com/news/thl-w8s-firmware/

I don't know this firmware can or not be used.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matheszabi:
I am using one.

First if you don't root it, than your GPS is useless.

Second: if you use for development, the logcat will be full of warning messages, bug to an Android 4.2.1 bug.

Third: it is not for games, has low performance there.

It is good for:

browsing

stand by mode

basic, utility apps

The intermal memory is formatted as the aps has only 3.5Gb available.

Flashing a new ROM can lead to loose the NVRam content: serial number, imeis, mac address an so on.

We have different needs. For me the worse is the Android bug and they don't upgrade to 4.2.2 ... when 4.4 released already...

Using without root: no GPs and ads... is not for me
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lindsay02:
Thanks for your advice, I'm not using GPS, There are other disadvantages?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matheszabi:
"Second: if you use for development, the logcat will be full of warning messages, bug to an Android 4.2.1 bug.

Third: it is not for games, has low performance there."

3.5Gb for apps. For me is enough now but the other 24 GB is used like the SD card, so the 32GB is like 4GB + 24GB SDCard...good or not, this is.

If you don't need GPS and not need Logcat for development, and don't wan to play 3D games at full resolution, speed, than is the best phone for his price.

Very nice screen, very high resolution.

Utility apps are working

Easy to root with Framaroot. Than set the EPO + gps.conf and you have a resonable gps first fix time too, still weak hardware and work work indoor, just out.

Photos: make with a special photo device with optical zoom and not with this phones, especially on low ligh conditions.

It has whatever Megapixel, but that is for resolution and not for quality.

At daily, sunny weather you can use it to post a picture to Facebook posting, but by far not the photograph quality. I don't use the camera, just tested 3 times. At night with street light full of noise the picture( low light condition)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lindsay02:
So many shortcomings, without any advantage? In fact, I want to have a reason to buy this phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matheszabi:
For the price is the best what you get!

It can be routed.

It is a nwverlocked.

Oh it is a dial sim: one to have free 3g internet . other sim to be unused - at lest for me :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matheszabi:
From 4 core on this phone 2 is sleeping, almost always.

THIS PHONE ARE NOT FOR GAMES.

from 8 core you will have 6-7 sleeping, but you must pay the price for 8.

Smart idea to buyt a 32 core phone, to have 30 core sleeping:)

So many money thrown away why don't buy an Original S4? !
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lindsay02:
Because I want to buy a cheap phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lindsay02:
There are other cheaper phones recommend?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matheszabi:
Actually, when I bought I was looking for " Samsung galaxy S4 alternative"

Now if you want you can search for "Samsung Galaxy note 3 alternative".

I would recommend this as a cheap phone, if you don't mind routing to have the GPS ( believe me you will need it at least twice in a year and never say "never". The gorila glass 3 is really nice. The Android 4..2.1 will be changed once and at 4.2.2 it isn't that bug, you can find here a custom rom with "... sony ericcson heart" for this phone. I have checked and that has other nice features for developers: GUI debugging.

For gaming take an original Note 3!

Usually it is used only 1 core at at around 500 MHz. The 4 core or 32 core is just an extra price, still lower than S4, but still unused.

Antutu will show exactly this:

Another thing is the profile picture of the contacts does not show when they are calling.. but it shows on messaging.

Im just wondering if i might have missed something, or the phone's calling feature is defective.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Megiddo2000:
Hey guys!

So I realize there are already a lot of topics on this on other phones, but not for the N5.

I've tried the solutions posted on the other phones but they don't seem to work.

Mediaserver seems to take a consistent 10-20% of my battery drain. When I reboot my phone, it jumps up to 30-40%, which is expected because the phone is scanning everything at boot. However, even after a few hours after, if I check the time on mediaserver, it still increases, meaning it's still being used.

My N5 is pretty bare, media wise. I have ~3 gigs of songs and like 50 pictures on it. I've tried removing all my pictures and music, but the mediaserver is still active and takes the same amount %.

I've tried Rescan Media root, but I'm guessing that's not compatible for 4.4 yet because it crashes every time I open it.

I've read that better battery stats can help identify it, but all I see on the stats are that mediaserver is taking up battery. I already knew that.

I've also read that mediaserver could be active due to an application, but the solutions associated to this problem involved uninstalling one app at a time and checking mediaserver; I don't have time for this method.

Anyways, any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am running the latest Cataclysm ROM and Faux kernels.

Thanks!

I want to add the information that during testing the drain times, I have not listened to music or played youtube, etc. Nothing media related.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patriotaus:
Mediaserver will show up as the culprit even if it is an app you have installed.

i.e. I found my battery dead (at 11pm) which was odd for me, so I checked and saw mediaserver at 40% usage. I put on my detective hat and worked out it was a game I installed (Robot Unicorn 2), which is very poorly coded so that if you dont completely quit it (swipe it away), it will constantly be playing in the background, it will keep your device awake and constantly play music (that you cant hear).

You will have to work it out, or install a bettery battery app to work out which app it is.

Report me back any issues, feedback is welcome always :)

Notice!

That menu blue-ish gradient look comes with my system theme only, menu colors will look like a stock without my theme. As always, back up your launcher "SecLauncher4.apk" before modding

What's new?

- 19.11.2013 Update, uploaded the final version, if you experienced launcher crashing before, it should be ok now. This mod works the best with the european SM-N9005, other devices might have issues.
