[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] krispy521:
I purchased the blue S4 from Best buy about a month ago. It lasted 3 days and then started giving me errors (like authentication error occurred or disconnected due to slow network) when using my Wifi on the 5ghz band only. The 2.4ghz always seems fine. I have to use 5ghz though because our baby monitor kills the 2.4ghz band. I took it back to Best buy got another one. That one lasted about 17 days and then I started to get the same Wifi issue.

So last night I went back again and got another one. The Wifi issue started within hours. Im on my 3rd one now.

I have reset the router to factory. I tried with an open network (no password required) and still get the same errors.

To top it off, my wife has the purple S4 and she has no issues at all.

I'm torn at what to do. Get a 4th one, try another color, or go back to the htc one.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Mistertac:
I've been getting the same error lately as well. I just picked up my dual band router thinking it'd be a good update from my old 802.11g one. I'm not sure it's the phone or some settings I have to dig through to make things work?!

Pretty annoying right now though.

I picked up my 4th S4 tonight. So far it's going well. I had them give me the oldest one they could find. It had 4.2.2 on it. I updated to 4.3 but im afraid to take the MK2 update. That may be what kills the wifi.

I read somewhere that turning off WMM cuts your router speed down to 54mb
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] krispy521:
Here is another update. Im now on my 4th one. It started dropping the 5ghz band again so i took the mk2 update. Still cant stay connected to the 5ghz ban.

So tonight i took back my netgear n900 router and upgraded to the netgear ac6300. Nice router but no change. It connects fine to 2.4 but not 5.

My wifes purple s4 still is cruising along without problems on 5ghz.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Sezmar:
I have been trying to duplicate this issue in my home, I have not been able to except when I use the same channel as my neighbor. Have any of you used WIFI Analyzer from the Market to make sure you are not receiving drops due to another carrier over riding your own? Also, if you have a ROKU 3 in your home check the channel as well, I have seen this cause some problems. My channel is on 161 with with QOS WMM support on.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] krispy521:
I did use WIFI Analyzer and I don't have anyone around me with 5ghz networks to even worry about. Last night with the new router, I updated to the latest firmware, tried WMM on or off, tried with and without a password, and I tried multiple channels. I could not connect to 5ghz for the life of me.

Logged into the 2.4ghz and it connected in less than a second. I just don't get it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Mistertac:
I'd like to find out why this happening too. I've played around with all the router settings as well and no dice. I have a netgear ac1200 and it'd be nice to use the 5ghz
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] gtan2589:
Guys, I've been having the same issue and just gave up a few months ago, just working off the 2.4. I realized it's not the router, when I was in the car trying to use the Hotspot and no one could connect. They were able to before all this started. After fiddling with it for quite a while I realized that it was transmitting at 5ghz. I switched to 2.4 and everything came up. Definitely the phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DOMasters:
I got the same problem with my note 3 (n9005) on every rom since 5.0.

I can see the AC WiFis, but I'm unable to connect. It makes no difference, choosing another channel or trying it in another network.

The behaviour: it tries to connect, (connecting..) after not even a half second, it just falls back into the state like I newer tried to connect (password is saved, and it don't says, it's a wrong password entered.) If I enter a wrong password, it tells me to reenter the correct password.

Any suggestions, what it could be?..

Thanks in advance :)

[Sony Xperia L] Rohit@91:
Sony has just announced the Xperia Z1 Compact at CES 2014. Unlike most mini flagship variants, it features a specs sheet that doesn't compromise, and has almost identical specs to the Xperia Z1 flagship.

​

A closer look at the specs sheet, and you'll see Sony have managed to fit in the same CPU, camera, memory, and internal storage into a size that's truly compact:

Dimensions: 127 x 64.9 x 9.5 mm, 137g

Display: 4.3" Triluminous IPS display of 720p resolution, 341ppi

Chipset: Qualcomm Snapdragon 800; quad-core Krait 400 at 2.2GHz, Adreno 330 GPU, 2GB RAM

OS: Android 4.3 Jelly Bean (planned upgrade to 4.4 KitKat shortly after launch)

Camera: 20.7 MP, Carl Zeiss optics, optical image stabilization, autofocus, LED flash, 2MP front-facing

Video camera: 1080p @ 30fps video capture with both cameras

Storage: 16GB built-in, microSD card slot with support of up to 64GB

Connectivity: NFC, A-GPS+GLONASS, WLAN (2.4/5Ghz) a/b/g/n/ac, microUSB 2.0 (MHL), BlueTooth 4.0 LE

Battery: 2,300 mAh

Misc: FM Radio, built-in accelerometer, multi-touch input, proximity sensor

Colors: Black, White, Pink, Lime, Yellow

The only thing that didn't make the cut is the display resolution, which has been cut down to 720p, and the battery, which has been reduced to 2300 mAh - the same as on the previous Xperia Z flagship. Luckily those seem to balance out just fine and the Xperia Z1 compact promises pretty good battery life.

The Sony Xperia Z1 Compact is expected to hit markets next month. Its pricing wasn't specified, but Sony confirmed it will slide between the Sony Xperia Z1 flagship and its Xperia Z predecessor.

[Sony Xperia L] ShinOrochiX:
Nice phone, unlike other manufacturers it does not compromise on specs as OP mentions. But downside is that it is too expensive, just for a smaller screen, priced too close to Z1.

[LG Optimus G (International)] Haze028:
Better explaination of Ubuntu OS and how it relates to us.

Ubuntu OS currently run on top of an Android "shell". The android layer contains the boot.img(kernel/ramdisk), initd, vendor specific drivers etc.. This is what first boots then the ubuntu file system is loaded within this Android "shell". This is why we need flash two zips to have it working(Android and Ubuntu). Ubuntu uses CM10.1 repos for the Android shell portion of the OS. This still works for us as we had official cm 10.1, though development wasn't long lived before moving to 10.2.

There is an AOSP 4.4.2 branch Ubuntu is working on to maybe replace the CM based Android component, but it is currently less stable than the CM based. Hopefully the AOSP branch becomes more stable in the near future as the development for our device is active there.

i tried it and it booted successful on my geehrc. Wifi worked, also keyboard and i could add an account too. Phone/SMS didn't work due no signal. The keyboard had also one severe bug: In the terminal the enter key didn't work.

It's worth a try, you can easily remove it, you just have to reflash your recovery ( in my case TWRP ).

Can i flash this on geehrc?why do we need to flash geeb.zip?thanks.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Haze028:
Its not for sprint yet.....I'll work on that this weekend hopefully.

The geeb.zip is needed because of how Ubuntu touch works. Its currently using a mako device tree that has been converted to flash on my e973, the at&t is pretty much the exact same which is why it works for them.

First you flash a cm10.1 based Ubuntu tweaked android sysyem-- geeb.zip

Second is the Ubuntu rootfs that goes atop the android base-- Ubuntu zip

I'm totally jacked to try this. I've downloaded each file twice and tried to get this running. Thing is that the md5s are different for each file. I tried all 4 combinations and let them try to boot for 30 mins each. I must be getting bad downloads lol

Long story short: I would be super grateful for some md5s, if you get a chance :)

I downloaded everything myself to try and con confirm it is currently not booting. Ubuntu has changed something that has broke our display. If you reboot the phone you can turn the screen on an off with the power button. I'll hopefully fix this this weekend.. though it's a busy one for me already. See what I can do

This weekend ended up being a write off for me so I'll have to see when I can get to making a new working zip, or maybe its an issue from ubuntu end they'll resolve.

Did anyone that tried this and had it boot happen to still have the trusty-preinstalled zip they used? If someone has one from 8th or earlier it should boot... i unfortunatly don't have an earlier build then the 13th... you can still download the 12th and up from the ubuntu phablet site... not sure if that pre-dates the issue or not.

Edit: I havn't tried the 13th build to say if it works or not. Here is the link to the phablet site if someone wants to try an earlier build. look for the preinstalled zip at the bottom of the page after selecting the date

Ok, again I feel a little stupid(again).... I don't empty my Trash very often at all(on my computer or in real life), just neglected to think of it til now. I have an Ubuntu zip from the 4th still there, uploading it now(upload speed is slow... won't be done for an hour or so). Going to check that it boots as it should then i'll post the link.

Again, this is just to hold over untill I can try to see what I need to change to get us booting with the nightlies again.

EDIT: Can verify now that it boots. Here is the Ubuntu zip from the 4th. Remember, not that it really matters, this is an older version than the current.
[LG Optimus G (International)] adzidek:
Confirmed, definitely boots. And I've successfully added all my accounts, but you've gotta either tap the top-right corner of the bottom-left 'swap' key to get the @ or the numbers, or the bottom-left corner of the swap-key (depends on which account you're trying to add - some of them have the Back button in the way which you can avoid by tapping the top-right corner of the swap key, and some have the Cancel button in the way, which you can avoid by tapping the bottom-left corner of the swap key). It's a pain the arse but it works.

I want to do the Google Contacts fix, but I want to do it from the handset's terminal app (i.e. not through ADB) - how do you do a return (Enter) in the Terminal app?

EDIT: found the fix for Enter and Backspace not working in terminal app. Flash this in recovery.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Dynamic2012:
Hello Everyone. I've searched XDA and the net high and low trying to figure out what is going on here, but it has come time to post. Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.

Bought my S3 from T-Mobile a few years ago, have installed a number of roms on it, but most recently updated to CM 10.2. I started having boot issues (phone would stop booting after a couple of restarts, not a sudden death syndrome phone, BTW). After using ODIN to load on root66-UVUEMJC (tmobile 4.3), and running into more issues, I ended up loading Stock 4.3 from Kies (yes, I realize this is a horrible mistake now).

That got me on my feet again, I used ODIN to install clockworkmod rom manager, then re-installed CM10.2. It was at this point where I noticed that I no longer had cellular network connectivity anymore. I've tried another t-mobile SIM in my phone to make sure it wasn't that, and it had the same problems:

On startup, my phone will connect to the cellular network and fill in all the fields under Status (including IMEI), but after a minute or so, I loose that and the device goes to "No Service". Nothing I've tried has been able to get this fixed. I have attempted to flash the latest modem as well with no luck.

As mentioned, any help would be greatly appreciated on what to look for / do to get this thing working so I don't have to drop a load on a new phone.

Thank you!
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danotoriusodo:
Just wondering if anyone else is having problems with the camera app on the GPE? Mine takes a long time to focus and a full 5 seconds to take an HDR photo (time from when taken until it is rendered). Also I can't swipe to the left when in the app to get to my gallery. Are these known issues?

And I think they're might be a problem with my battery. Sometimes it'll get so hot ~38C and will barely charge when it gets that hot (maybe 10% in 2-3 hours).

Probably should call Google and get a replacement but I wanted to check and see if anyone else is having these issues.

[Moto G General] alonsoch:
hi dude, this is great, so can you make an scrip that just have the esential gapps? just like if we install the "minimal gapps", if you can do it, i have another question, this will break OTA updates? thanks!
[Moto G General] flibblesan:
Yes because you have made changes to the system. Any missing files will prevent you from applying OTA updates.

BTW why not just use the built-in method of disabling apps in Android? Once they have been disabled and you reboot they won't be launched, won't take up resources etc etc. Deleting them from the system is just daft since you cannot reclaim that space for your own files.
[Moto G General] lollerblade:
Is space from deleted apps really not reclaimed? That's strange...so for example the 5,52 MB available (or better the free MB amount of those 5,52) won't increase after deleting built-in apps?
[Moto G General] alonsoch:
thanks for the answer, so what is the built-in method of disabling apps in Android?
[Moto G General] ksuuk:
Settings > apps > all > choose app > click > disable
[Moto G General] Doublepranks:
Rooting the device also breaks OTA updates.
[Moto G General] alonsoch:
well, thanks
[Moto G General] mathm2013:
Just disabling your apps won't free much internal memory as deleting apks will.
[Moto G General] knizmi:
Deleting apps on the /system partition will not give you any additional space on /data either, so there is no point in deleting them. Disabling them is the more logical way if you want to get rid of them.
[Moto G General] debaj:
The internal memory and the /system are two separate partitions. You cannot access the free space on /system unless you are rooted (and you have limited use of it even if you are rooted, for example you can move apps there with titanium backup, but cannot use it for storing media files).
[Moto G General] Dan_Jacques:
Great! Works perfectly.

The general performance is slightly improved, and the battery life is better than stock. With the Faux123 kernel, the battery life (if correctly configured) is impressive.

Thans a lot.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] vouty:
I've been using an AllShare cast dongle to turn my GNII into a media center since I got it a year ago. Works great but requires that I stick with the stock kernel even though I'm rooted and running a custom rom (Tweaked 2.5). I have to run TriangleAway after anytime I go into recovery mode, but it does work.

Just wondering if a cheap Miracast or EZShare dongle like this: Tronsmart T1000 would work on the GNII but allow me to use a custom kernel as well? FYI: I have spent a lot of time trying to make AllShare Cast work with a custom kernel and am pretty certain it can't be done. If you know otherwise, please do tell.

OmniROM Silly Boot Animation​

Hi, I'm pretty new to the forum and to the world of custom ROMs. I'm running OmniROM on a Kindle Fire HD 7" at the moment and it is amazing!

I made this boot animation in my spare time and was wondering if anyone likes it. It's 404x472, which is a wierd size, but it'll center itself on any screen bigger than it. I can make it smaller if anyone wants it to fit on a smaller screen. I made it with 1280x800 in mind after all.

I remade the colored bars and blinking from stock, expanding upon them, and added a little more animation.
