[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cliff8:
man your lucky im stuck at .12 mb for speeds on tmobile and have no idea why it says im on hspa+ but it wont even load my apps at all -_-
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emailrob:
Thanks for the replies. The 520 was an ATT device here http://slickdeals.net/f/6273346-at-...repaid-windows-8-smartphone-85-free-shipping?

I just tested at work and the Moto G is getting 1.83 mpbs! This is crazy. I thought the Moto G had all the T Mobile bands to take advantage of HSPA+ (as it says I'm connected to that all the time)?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cliff8:
thats what i thought to -_- i dont understand why other people get 8 to 10 mb for speeds and other get crappy speeds on same network. and i know for a fact i got good covareage in my area.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emailrob:
Yes. I just can't understand how the bands are apparently the same on the 520 and the G, but the speeds are crazy different. So the bands CANNOT be the same. If I have to change phones again (to something like a nexus 5 or a Moto X) I'll have to do diligence again!
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emailrob:
Replying to my own post. Suffice to say now the phone has LTE under Tmo I'm pretty happy :) it was a painless transfer (moto x came with a sim card already), quick call to tmo and they transferred my $30 a month plan over.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sprangbrake:
You have to specify 3G as your preferred network ion Wireless Networks/Network mode. I went from never getting speeds above 1Mbps to 7Mbps everywhere.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emailrob:
That didn't work. The only way I 'fixed' it was by using the Tmo version of the Moto X. Moto G, for me, never worked at the faster speeds.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zilliman:
Hi guys, just some questions about the Kindle HDX 7".

1) I have read in some reviews that the Amazon Fire HDX has a custom, Amazon-centric OS which makes you buy things from Amazon and that you do not have access to free apps from Google play store.

Can the Kindle Fire HDX take a CM ROM and become a "normal" tablet without any links to Amazon?

2) Can the 4G version be used to make normal phonecalls and normal SMS messages?

Many thanks
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
I can answer part of that, we do not have the ability to flash custom ROMs on it as of yet because of the locked boot loader, but from what I know we now can at least root it, and install the Google play market on it plus custom launchers so we can kinda not have to deal with Amazon's interface. I don't know a way of making free calls off the sim or sms, I would just use the magic jacks app or something similar but that's just me.

[Galaxy S III General] boomboomer:
Questions go in the q&a forum, report your own post and ask a moderator to move it.

You'll need to obtain an unlocking code from your current network operator, insert your new SIM then enter the code.

There used to be patches, which would unlock early firmware -but these no longer work.

The search facility would have give you this information a lot quicker.
[Galaxy S III General] PBLnS:
I did the search and find what you say... but also a few with the exact same problema and resolve it by flashing a stock versión (and other things) how ever ) I cant seem to find the right rom, just for other regions not mine.

I've just bought an OTG cable, and I realize that it's not working in 4.4. I know that some apps can "fix" this for data access, but I still can't use my Xbox 360 controller, mouse, keyboard, HDMI, etc. So, I'm wondering if someone is working in a fix (even Motorola), or we've lost the OTG support forever.

[Moto X Q&A] themaker69:
I did the same thing, but I lost the OTG support.
[Moto X Q&A] Groid:
I can't help but think either your otg cable is not up to spec or stickmount needs to be allowed root access. Check your supersu to make sure stickmount is included. Otherwise, try another cable. OTG definitely works with 4.4 and stickmount on a rooted device.
[Moto X Q&A] blackhand1001:
Stickmount definitely works on the stock 4.4 rom. I tried it earlier today and it worked exactly as it should.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TopherBrink:
Would the following work as a way to try out, for example Cyanogenmod 10. I am currently running a 4.1.2 install (pretty much stock just rooted/cwm via Philz as per the tutorial). I have a complete backup made via Philz recovery of this rom along with the kernel (which I believe is still stock from that) and efs.

1) Install a custom kernel (eg. dorimanx 9.x?) via the Philz recovery.

2) Install cm-10.2-20140102-NIGHTLY-i9100.zip.

3) To return to the original rom, reflash the original kernel (with whatever CWM is included in dorimanx) - then reflash the backed up rom via the same recovery?

I hope this is clear enough a question.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Donnie Sins:
I believe you have to flash a stock rom through Odin, to return to complete stock. Just flashing a stock kernel isn't enough, and is surely not going to work (so don't do it).There are also tutorials how to remove the yellow triangle afterwards.

Please correct me if I'm wrong;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TopherBrink:
This is the part I'm most unsure of. Ideally I'm trying to figure out the process that lets me go from CM10.2 (and whatever recovery) to the point I am running the backed up rom rooted with PhilZ-cwm6-XWLSW-XEU-5.06.1-signed.zip again. Very confused on how to do so.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mpcp27:
Topher,

If you have rooted and cwm via philz, you already have a modified kernel installed. I believe the philz-cwm6 should be as close to stock kernel with the CWM incorporated. You don't need to add another kernel, because it will be replaced when you install the custom ROM. You should just be able to flash the cm10.2 via philz or via odin. You can then flash the dormanix kernel if you want - can't comment on that kernel - or if it has cwm included.

I would also suggest that you consider backing up you /efs folder (one with you imei information etc) prior to flashing any custom roms. People have been using hcKtool to do the backups and also an actual copy as well.

Depending on the custom rom, you may have connection problems with your network. So you may want to consider keeping a copy of your modem.bin file from your stock rom handy in case you need to flash onto the custom rom.

If you want to go back to stock, then you just need to flash the stock rom - you can check sammobile website for your stock rom or use the backup that you made.

I should point out that I have yet to do any of the above - I gathered this from reading the forums. Some more experienced forum users can add corrections. I rooted my phone a couple of months ago and now considering installing custom rom in the next couple of months.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biscuits01:
if u flash a custom rom (cm10.2 for example), it already included kernel as well. so if u want to try out other custom kernel, i can flash it after you are done flashing a custom rom but make sure it is compatible with your android version. (u cant use custom kernel that not support android 4.3 with a custom rom running android 4.3)

I tried all bunch of stuff, but to summarize, i did wipe everything with fastboot and flashed stock 4.4.2 and 4.4.0 with fastboot/toolkit/flash-all.bat....and while every flash seems to finish ok, i still can't boot device (i waited 30 minutes on 4 color dots)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kohkohnut:
Hi there

I have been using the app FolderSync to sync all the files from my phone's internal storage to Google Drive on a daily basis just in case if I lose my phone, there will still be a copy of my files in the cloud which I can retrieve. However, I am not comfortable with leaving my files unprotected in the cloud.

I have done a fair bit of research but have not been able to find an app that can automatically encrypt all the files before syncing with my Google Drive. Apps like Boxcryptor require me to manually upload the files for it to encrypt my files but does not offer any kind of automatic syncing like FolderSync does.

It does not seem possible for me to link Boxcryptor with FolderSync to get the desired result of having my files encrypted then automatically synced with a folder in my cloud storage.

Has anyone encountered a similar issue and found a solution? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hey Guys, I'm a noob to all of this but decided I would try and root this phone on the advice of a friend. Well I am now stuck on the yellow triangle screen.

It won't let me post a link apparantly due to my low post count, but it is from the rwilco12 website:

Root> Files > Devices > Samsung Galaxy S2 (Sprint)(SPH-D710) > Kernels > Reocvery Kernels > GB > Chris41g > Stock CWM > One Click > EL26_Stock_CWM5.exe

It said "pass" when it was finished, but when the phone started to reboot it just got stuck on the yellow triangle screen. Please help!

Easy fix?

First what were you trying to do, if you were trying to root the phone, your kinda doing it wrong?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] flyinb501:
Yes, I was trying to root the phone. My understanding was that this was the first step. I was then going to wipe cache, flash modem, then ROM.

Well, the easy and painless way to root is using the app framaroot or via rooted one-click, by the way... What version of Android were you on before you did this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] flyinb501:
4.0.4 I believe.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gamepro602:

Though I need more information on your current build, do you remember what modem your are using? FI27 or FL24
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] flyinb501:
I have no idea what modem I am using. I never flashed one or anything. I never got past the Odin EL26 part.

I'm at work now so I won't be able to do it until tonight. In order to get out of the yellow triangle screen I used Odin to flash this from rwilco's site:

Root > Files > Devices > Samsung Galaxy S2 (Sprint) (SPH-D710) > Stock ROMs > ICS > FH13 > Full Restore > Unrooted

Thanks for your help!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] flyinb501:
So I guess I am on FH13 now.

Will that file you posted root the phone then?

To make things easier, Google an app called framaroot, install it, open it, and you should be able to figure out the rest
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattzeller:
El26 is used for flashing custom ROMs, if your on stock, just flash the nodata version, that way you shouldn't lose anything, then use the framaroot to root your device.

[Moto G General] scott_doyland:
Hi,

I read two opinions in another thread, one said the camera quality is improved in kitkat, the other opinion said there was no difference.

My only reason for maybe upgrading to kitkat is if the camera is better. I dont want to upgrade otherwise as my moto g is working fantastically on 4.3 right now.

So would people be able to let me know if they think the camera is improved on kitkat, especially if it manages to focus faster and better.

Thanks.
[Moto G General] krucymucy:
I haven't noticed any difference, also tried focal but it's even worse, except at low light I think it's a little better.

Does anyone else have any suggestions? Has anyone tried LG camera?
[Moto G General] CADude:
It's the same. Motorola needs to push out a firmware update which is not part of the Android OS.

You should update to 4.4.2 anyway because its free, its an improvement in performance and there's no reason not to upgrade.
[Moto G General] wrj54:
Wasn't 4.4.1 to improve the Nexus 5 camera? Then 4.4.2 provided other fixes.
[Moto G General] CADude:
Yes but Google controls the Nexus firmware. Motorola controls the Moto /g/ firmware. It's up to Motorola to fix their camera.
[Moto G General] Cooptx:
Motorola is Google now :P

[MENTION=4375197]scott_doyland[/MENTION], you should always keep you device on the most up-to-date software possible. Also included in updates are various security updates to keep your device safe from viruses and such.
[Moto G General] debaj:
I used Infusion ROM (Beta 2 which was 4.3 based) for a few days which uses the AOSP camera/gallery instead of the Motorola one. The image quality was much better compared to the stock camera.
[Moto G General] wrj54:
I probably didn't state it clearly but I was thinking if 4.4.1 was aimed at the Nexus 5 camera, why would it improve the Moto G camera unless they have the exact same app and same issue.

My next thought is does Google/Motorola even think they have an issue with the Moto G camera? They obviously knew customers where unhappy with the N5's camera but unless they feel there's an issue with the Moto G, there will be no fix.
[Moto G General] lowrider262:
I agree here... I think everyone should take a couple minutes to voice their opinions to Motorola about the camera. Heck, all you have to do is live chat on the Help app and ask if they plan on releasing a software update to improve the camera quality. I think if enough of us do this, we could see results.

I'm for that idea, though we'd need more than 10 participants to raise Googorola's concern.

[Moto G General] osstis:
Is Motorola cheap (£99) because of cheap Camera? Not sure but you cannot have all top spec for this price range. Personally I don't think any update will improve this camera, more likely it's hardware issue. Anyway still great device.
[Moto G General] krucymucy:
Defy+ made way better pictures than this. KK doesn't improve it.
[Moto G General] lowrider262:
If anyone's interested, I did a quick write up in the themes & apps section on how to replace the stock Moto cam with the KitKat AOSP camera, which imo takes far better pics. Root is required.
