Thank you for sharing your N5 quicksand case with us!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Andrew149:
Op can you post pics with the case in installed with the front of the phone showing, so I can see how much lip this adds for screen protection.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] hamlet84:
I add new pics in the original post. It adds very small lips, so probably not much screen protections.

P.S.: Consider that my phone has an Xtreme Guard screen protector on it

Thanks, you know this looks like one of those rock cases on eBay
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mikeandlara:
I'm sure there's a really easy answer to this, but I can't figure it out:

Why is there such a big difference between the size of some custom roms? For example, the MOAR rom runs around 870mb, while the most recent versions of Cyanogen and some of it's takeoff's are only in the 200 mb range.

What am I missing?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] metalfan78:
Quick answer is TW. Cyanogenmod is aosp.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mikeandlara:
I didn't realize the difference in rom size could be so significant. Thanks!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] billyjoebob:
Is there that much stripped from the TW version when they make the AOSP version?

For us non-programmers, can anyone broadly describe what types of software are removed?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
What happens is this

Google updates the AOSP source

They then pass that on to the OEM's

The OEM's add their skins over it and heavily modify the entire framework, adding new code, etc, making files larger

They also add their apps, extra features, etc since AOSP is fairly bare

This requires not only new code in the form of apps and framework files, but also libs, files in /etc and so on

I am after the camera software and the MMS software that comes with the O2 xda2. I have upgraded my roms to 1.71a.96WWE, radio 1.18.00, so have lsot the extend rom that was there. I liked the O2 camera software as it was full screen. Also the MMS Software seemed good too.

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] starkruzr:
My phone (running stock, rooted 4.1.2 at the moment) is getting a little unstable, so I am going to wipe and start from scratch. I'd really like to go back to CyanogenMod-based ROMs, but AFAIK the pen support in these is awful -- S Note is no longer there, and there is nothing in the Play Store remotely as good, and all of the useful annotating tricks are missing.

If this is no longer the case, can someone let me know? I am not in the "scene" and there are so many ROMs posted in so many places that I have no idea where to start. Otherwise I think I will probably grab the rooted 4.3 ROM that dropped a couple days ago and try that on for size.

Thanks gang.

I'm running the gt-7105 cm10.2 .0 and I have been using the papyrus app in the play store. I'm pretty happy with it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ducter:
No ROMs based of anything other then tw have the functionally that your looking for in terms of the spen. With that said, you can get some decent apps that make it less painful.

When I run cyan or any other AOSP/AOKP ROMs I install spen launcher along with notebuddy and cm spen add on. That combination will allow a pop up menu when you remove the spen that allows you to have access to your spen apps. As stated papyrus is a good one, gnote found here on xda is another, write and sketchbook, you can backup or extract sketchbook from stock ROMs and it installs fine.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andreluis034:
Hello,

I currently I own an Alcatel One touch 995 With CM10.2 and these last few weeks there has been lots of phones coming up for such little price and all with identical specs, being Moto G the best IMO as the screen isn't that big nor too small But what I'm concerned at is the Battery itself in long term.

Are there, currently, any ways to change the battery even if you have to take a part the phone ? Would that be the only option at the moment? I ask this because the two previous phones I had, had battery issues after about 1,5 years.

Another thing, how much would you think a battery would last only for Texting, 2-3 calls a day, browsing and about of 1 hour of gaming(not intensive games). According to the posts in another thread you get arround 2 days of battery ?

And finally, if I buy the 16gb version how much storage would I have? Considering the 8gb it comes with 5gb usable, I presume you would have arround 12-13GB?

Any answers on this topic would be appreciated.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksuuk:
Read the forum and You will get the answers. Shortly, Moto is made easy, all You need just new battery and open 14 screws and that's it, OS takes about 3GB, battery usage depends of personal usage, it's good, better as the most ones.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andreluis034:
Do you have any source, plus where could the battery be bought? I've been searching the forums but only external battery packs.

As long as I get longer than and the batter can be replaced I'm happy:

[Nexus 5 Accessories] motcher41:
I bought this charging pad on a whim having no idea what to expect. I am using it with a LG Nexus 5 with a Spigen Neo Hybrid case on it.

The unit has a very plain flat pad design with 2 LED lights on it. A red light and a green light. A red light is on when the unit is not charging or your phone is not connected/placed right. The light switches to the green light when everything is connected and charging.

The unit comes with a white usb cable to charge with. You need to use your phones outlet adapter.

I have used mine for several days and it has worked great so far. In fact I placed an order for a second to use at home today. I may even rig one up for a car mount soon as well.

It may be white (not my first choice) but for $15.39 with free shipping it cannot be beat. Great unit for a great price.

Find more info here:More info on the charger and where to get it
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jsans:
I bought amazon.com/gp/product/B00F5STIUK/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

this one and it was about 18$ when I ordered it. I believe it is the same thing but they are great. I got one and it charges to 100% and stays at 100% in the morning when I charge it at night time. This thing charges pretty quick too. Phone never gets hot when it is charging and I'm using a Spigen Neo Hybrid case as well

Had it for a month without any issues and it's cheap lol
[Nexus 5 Accessories] motcher41:
Ditto same here. Goes to 100 and keeps it there. Awesome charger. I ordered my second one yesterday.

I got one of these on eBay for 10 dollars. It looks like a premium quality product. Even the box that it came in was super nice. I love this charger especially for the price.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] DoiX:
Got the black one, unfortunately i spent around 30$ for it. I also ordered some magnets which i intend to put inside it to transform the charger in a nice desktop stand.

What i don't like about it, it's glossy, fingerprints and smudges are extremely visible on the black version. The plastic around the LED could've been more opaque. Functionality wise, it's a good cheap qi charger!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Philly Jim:
Ordered 2 Thank you for the heads up.......:good:
[Nexus 5 Accessories] RaskloP:
I've got the black version of this charger. It works well with my N5 in a Spigen Slim Armor case and seems to output 700mA at its peak. Been afraid that a cheap QI charger might not have a very good regulator and would overheat the QI and battery circuitry but so far that has not been the case. I've used the charger for about 2 weeks now and according to Battery Monitor Widget the phone has never exceeded 38 degrees centigrade.

Definitely recommend it considering the ridiculously low price and satisfactory performance. Paid $15.35 for mine on ebay from siqi_etech on November 2nd.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opalelement:
Tried to find the answer to this, but I only seem to find threads with people having this error all the time or just rebooting if they are in a similar situation to fix it; I trying to get more info about it.

Right now I am running a CM11 nightly of KitKat 4.4.1 on a VZW Note II, however I have had this issue with other devices, carriers, Android versions, etc. so I have always assumed it is just the way Android works.

Basically if an app that is currently using the camera (Camera app, barcode scanner, etc) crashes or hangs and gets force-closed, opening any camera app after that seems to always give me either a "can't connect to camera" error or a black screen instead of the viewfinder. In these cases, a simple reboot fixes the issue and I can use the camera again, but this is inconvenient for two reasons:

1. A reboot on my phone takes 45-60 seconds, by which time whatever I wanted a picture of is usually gone or changed.

2. Rebooting means that any apps that don't save the data constantly but run in the background are restarted and I lose the progress. Mainly I am referring to Chrome incognito tabs, but also apps that don't save in-progress data such as puzzle games or video players.

With my limited knowledge of Linux and my slightly less limited knowledge of operating systems in general, I know that sometimes a temporary lock file is Created to prevent other apps/programs from modifying or accessing a file or program until the lock is released. Does that kind of situation apply here, such as a camera lock file being created when camera access is started and then not able to be released if the app crashes.? Also, if that does apply, would manually deleting the lock file or creating a script that does it for me when it is run allow access to the camera again without rebooting? And if that doesn't apply, is there any way to regain camera access without rebooting when this occurs?

Thanks in advance,

Opalelement
