[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badboy47:
This attitude "i dont care" brought us to this monitoring age. Its not about what you have to hide or not. Its about what they can use against you in future. In this age many people doesn't know the value of free rights. I would love to give you lots of examples but its pointless because ignorance is a bless. Go ahead mock me. Make a joke to make you feel secure.

As Charlie Chaplin once said. Greed has poisoned men’s souls, has barricaded the world with hate, has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical. Our cleverness, hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost....
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
Ok now I have made my comments about it but ill lay it on the line here.

Is there much people can do not to be monitored or tracked? Very little. Is it an issue? Yes. Can it be fixed or stopped? Not with out a very extreme thing happening. So those that care about this stuff do what makes you feel secure. For those that don't mind. Cool enjoy your device as it was intended.

Me. Do I care? Yeah but not alot. I don't use half the stuff anyway and targeted ads annoy the hell out of me. I never buy anything from ads. Will I go out of my way to stop it? No not worth my time. Hell I still leave my Xbox one camera on all the time. If they want to come get me they are more then welcome to try. Can't stop them from coming but can make sure they don't make the mistake more then once.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aadnan.w:
How is the Nexus S performing as regards RAM usage and battery life on the handful of unofficial Kitkat ROMs doing the rounds? Kitkat is built to perform better on devices with 512MB RAM than Jellybean. Wondering if that translates into actual differences in performance and battery life, even on the as-yet-unstable ROMs.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Setting.Out:
Battery life is pretty close to most jelly beans, it has better ram availability, but is smooth like 4.1 only a bit faster... Some apps still have issues due to the newness of 4.4, but mainly in ART... Most roms are pretty stable for daily use...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aadnan.w:
Thanks. So in that case, I shouldn't expect more than the 1.5-2 hours of screen on time I've been getting using JB.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Setting.Out:
In that case, much better than what you were getting.. Lol... I get around 4hrs screen time with 12-16hrs moderate usage..
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treesurf:
Wow, how do you get so much screen time?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Setting.Out:
Pixie dust... Lol. I don't have 3g on unless I'm using it, location off unless needed, I keep WiFi off when the phone sleeps, I don't auto sync, screen brightness is usually on lowest settings, I set app permissions to not wake my device, greenify, and use a script package with nodded build.prop...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aadnan.w:
I'll try that and see how long my battery lasts me. Although then I don't know what exactly I'll be doing with the phone at all. Usually I have 2G always on, switching to 3G when I need it, don't use WiFi. Auto-sync is mostly off, brightness lowest indoors, and a few apps greenified. That gives me 2 hours max of screen on time over moderate use for say 8-9 hours.

Hi Guys,

Hi,

I have a Nexus 4 with latest KitKat and franco's kernel. I didn't update via OTA. I keep my mobile data disabled, but it seems that my phone randomly use mobile data. Data graph does not register it, but I can here the noise in my computer speakers, and my stupid mobile provider always sends me SMS when I start using mobile internet, so I know it's using it. So, any idea why this happens and how to stop it? Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrew.golby:
Is it happening when your phone is slipping back into 2G - even if not being used the phone send paging signals to the network every so often - you'll hear it especially before a call or SMS comes in as the network sets up the call. Whilst technically it is transmitting small amounts of paging data it isn't charged to you.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mara-:
Well, I keep it on 2g only, so that's not what is happening, and I mentioned that I get sms from provider when my mobile data is used. I just upgraded to 4.4.1, so I'll see if it still happens.

In meantime, if anyone has any idea why this might happen, please post.

[Moto G Themes and Apps] shaftenberg:
Salut,

for all of you, who don't like Chrome, here is the original AOSP Browser 4.3 with the optional BookmarkSync if you like.

I modded the Browser, so that the search-bug is gone. All AOSPs had weird strings for "search on page", I added the english and german resource strings and ID.

Just move the Browser.apk to /system/app and set the permissions to rw-r--r--

If you like, you may also install ChromeBookmarksSyncAdapter.apk (same way as above), so that your bookmarks from your Google account are synced, but this is optional.

If you encounter a Force Close after starting, delete or rename BrowserProviderProxy.apk and BrowserProviderProxy.odex (if you don't have a deodexed ROM) and reboot, then it should work.

Enjoy!

PS: This is Adobe Flash "ready" - if you want Flash, you need to install Flash for sure, but the Browser is capable of using it ;)

[edit]

I tried several Flash versions, all of them had issues, but the old one 11.1.115.11 works fine for me:

http://download.macromedia.com/pub/...roid/11.1.115.11/install_flash_player_ics.apk
[Moto G Themes and Apps] xxnoelziexx:
Thanks for this but having a problem. When trying to launch browser I get unfortunately, browser has stopped force close.
[Moto G Themes and Apps] shaftenberg:
Wow that's not happening on my phone.

Are the permissions set correctly? rw- r-- r-- (644)?

Have you installed the SyncAdapter too?

If not, do it and try again.

If then again an error occurs, try it with freezing BrowserProxyProvider.apk, this should help as some users report in another thread.

[edit]

One idea: try with deleting app and cache data in settings -> apps -> Browser and/or freeze Chrome.
[Moto G Themes and Apps] xxnoelziexx:
Fixed just done a search on here and found out that I needed to rename BrowserProviderProxy.apk just added a 1 on the extention so it looks like BrowserProviderProxy.apk1

reboot and all is working.

Enabled the browser sync under my google account and now see all my bookmarks.

Thanks for all your help sorted.
[Moto G Themes and Apps] shaftenberg:
Glad you got it.

Weird is, I didn't need to rename or delete anything, BrowserProxyProvider is just there... Will put this in the OP anyway, thanks for your feedback!
[Moto G Themes and Apps] shaftenberg:
I added the link to a working Flash version in OP, official from Macromedia.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krylon80:
Hi,

I'm really not sure where to turn for help with an issue that I'm having after updating my GSIII to Android 4.3. After updating I immediately noticed an issue where I'm receiving notifications (in the pull-down menu) regarding 5 files that have "finished downloading".

The files listed are pictures that I sent myself ages ago and most likely downloaded from Gmail. These files are no longer saved on my phone nor have I interacted with them in months. This is sort of a phantom notification. Every time I clear these notifications, they repopulate and continue to do so over and over and over.

Tapping one of the notifications prompts a "target file does not exist" error message, which makes sense given that the "item" the notification is referring to doesn't actually exist. I've tried uninstalling a Gmail Attachment Downloader app that I had installed, thinking that was the culprit. No dice. I've reset the phone multiple times which also didn't fix it.

If anyone can offer any suggestions that DO NOT INCLUDE A FACTORY RESET, I would greatly appreciate it.

TIA

Does anyone know if i,can I flash a dev firmware onto my att moto that has an unlocked bootloader?
[Moto X Q&A] linuxgator:
Is it a Developer Edition or an AT&T model? The AT&T model doesn't have an unlockable bootloader. The dev edition does, and therefore you can flash the dev firmware onto it.
[Moto X Q&A] bongostl:
I had thought you could unlock it through the tool online?

[Vega General] ratykat:
Guys,

Just been having a mooch over the EVGA forums, and found a fix to an issue that has been bugging me at night. Essentially the backlight will flicker even though auto brightness is off. Most noticeable in games such as Jelly world which is very colourful on the lowest brightness setting. Searched here to no avail so thought I'd share here for anyone else struggling with this.

Thanks to Telrunya over on the EVGA forums:

"I'm working from memory here, but if you look under the Power Saver options see if PRISM is enabled.

"According to Nvidia, 'PRISM reduces display power consumption by reducing backlight brightness while dynamically increasing pixel intensity.' It's important to note that this feature is completely separate from auto-brightness, which adjusts according to ambient lighting rather than what's on-screen."
[Vega General] Deepak Vishnu:
so turning prism off would stop it ??? that is the flickering issue
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deetz:
So I got my Nexus 5 all is nice. I picked up a Mugen N11 which is a QI charger and battery.

It worked great my phone would beep whenever I set it down and charge.

A few days later I popped the cover off my phone looking to maybe do the speaker hack to make things louder. I put the cover back on and was still able to charge with no problems.

I opened it up again, didn't do anything other than opening the case, closed it up and now I can't wirelessly charge the phone. I haven't had a chance to test the QI charger itself but nothing really changed with it.

Is there anything I can check inside the phone. I tried cleaning it up a bit incase there was finger prints? Anyone run into something like this before. Phone is fine but no wireless charging is annoying :D
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chopper the dog:
In the adam outler "sound mod" thread there were peeps that needed to push harder around the camera area to reclick the back to re-engage Qi charging after removing the back.

I am sending these messages from the camera app. Anybody else notice this glitch? It does not do it on all messages at once. Seems to only do it on the most resent MMS that I sent.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elfanto:
Hello, i'm having some problems with an MTK 6572_S00 GT-I9500 Clone. I flash to it a wrong firmware and brick it really bad, after a few days of downloading tools, drivers and firmwares, managed too install the proper drivers (PreloaderUSB and DA USB) and with that flash a rom wich makes the phone to power on a red led (then it goes blue), the capacitive bottons and when i touch the power botton it makes a sound like is the screen was unlocking, but the problem is that the screen remains black, it doesn't do anything.

So... The problems that i'm having right know are:

1- The phone looks like is booting up, but the screen never do anything

2- I cannot flash another firmware to the phone, the ones that i have downloaded shows me an error message that says "Nand Flash was not detected"

3- I make a backup of my original firmware before flash anything to it, but i when i tryed to restore it, the SP Flash Tools showed to me an message error wich says that my phone was an MT6572_S00 and i tryed to flash a ROM for an MT6589.

Any ideas will help!

Adding some recently news:

Flashed some part of another firmware and made to screen lights up but the phone still doesn't boot in the regular way. When i push Volume + and Power botton it boots on Factory mode i think because it shows a black menu with three boot options (Recovey, Fastboot and Normal). If i pick Normal or Recovery mode the screen goes blank and starts to blink, if pick Fastboot shows a message that says Fastboot Mode On or something like that.

Just remember... that if you root without triggering the Knox flag...

Can I flash custom recovery/kernel/rom without tripping KNOX flags?

No, Flashing a custom ROM will trip the flag

No, Flashing a custom Kernel will trip the flag

No, Flashing a custom Recovery will trip the flag

If the knox flag doesn't mean anything to you then you can do just about anything you want to do.... except reset the Knox flag that is.
