[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w4rped:
As i mentioned before i kow it scored a better antutu score than the ones im looking at. 35k vs 27k and im sure it is battery efficient. But when i research i find the octa core note 3 is not even activated to be octa core because of a heat package issue. So note 3 will never truly be octa core.

I do know that they make the phones cheaper. But when i buy a phone the first thing i do is case it and put a screen protector on it. So those issues are minor to me. When it comes down to it america charges for names. We all know this and we keep spending the money. There are times where i would only want the american version of things, but i have had china tablets and i am pretty happy with them. I dont mind lower quality materials sometimes because they are worth it. You can not get some of the phones you can get in china models, and the phones tend to have more power than their american counterparts.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billaboy25:
performance boost on poor quality materials negates it. i suggest you stick with the legit one.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seh6183:
I wish you luck in your future endeavours.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w4rped:
There is no legit phone of the model that I am looking at. I have not been looking at the note 3 clone at all. I was momentarily looking at it because I thought it was the same thing. Now I am looking at other chinese phones that are not made in America. The phones are reputable manufacturers that have millions of buyers. I am not looking at clones because I don't think it makes sense to get a clone. I suggest you take a look at the chinese brands out there, they have a huge following. ZOPO t1000 looks really nice but it's not out yet. Just because something isn't made for america doesnt make it bad. In fact, a lot of the phones made outside of the US are amazing. Either way, I ended up finding a really cheap note 3 and scooped it so all this is moot. But I will definitely be looking a lot harder at the chinese brand phones now that they are going to be offering 4g on them. I do suggest you take a harder look though, you are very biased against them, and they really aren't as bad as you make them out to be. In most cases people would be very happy with a cheaper foreign make phone instead of the overpriced overbloated crap that american consumers are used to. For the same technology they charge less. China is all open source, they really are ahead of the curve on phones if you really look at it. You can actually get the "foreign" make phones that are the same brands we get in the US, but they are VASTLY different. The dual sim note 2 is just one example. Take a look at them, you likely will be happy with at least one of em if you let yourself be.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Agent:
..You do realize a lot of people from many countries come to America to buy things because it's cheaper here right? Canadians especially.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w4rped:
I guess I'll agree to disagree. You seem set against foreign phones for some reason. Personally I think american products are overpriced and have inferior components to what they COULD put in there. It's all a game in america. Money over everything else. This is why we see all the locked devices and locked firmware, and everything else they do to keep their products theirs alone. All these things are unheard of other places. We are the capitol of control. I am not saying that every foreign phone is a winner, but there are many amazing devices. Most american devices are crap, that's fact, so it's really not much different. And with all the advances they have because it's open source, I think they will eventually surpass america in all areas. Till then, I guess everyone will just hate foreign stuff!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seh6183:
Capitol of control? And China isnt? LMAO You keep referring to AMERICAN phones. You realize Samsung is a Korean manufacturer right? Lol The locked bootloaders come from the wireless carriers in the US, NOT the phone manufacturers. And Chinese stuff sucks plane and simple. They clone everything and sell bogus products. Are you telling me you would buy a car from china? It would be made out of cardboard LOL

And when you buy an imported phone you will have zero warranty. I can't believe you would even be okay with that part alone. Show me one CHINESE MADE, not a Chinese variant of a Korean phone such as a note 2 that is sold in china, a Chinese phone like ZTE or oppo, that has a better spec sheet and build quality than one of the major brands sold in america.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w4rped:
Again, I am not saying they are all better. American phones, and I mean american CARRIED phones, are in general garbage. The new Zoppo t1000 has great specs if you look at them. The only phones that really are better in america are the flagship devices. I would never buy an american phone that was not a flagship. I would however buy a lot of the various chinese phones. As far as the warranty... I don't really care about warranty guarantees. I've never even used one, and I get all my phones second hand anyways. No warranty there. Either way, it's preference, you just don't like non american phones. I don't really care where they come from.

[MENTION=3915037]Crash 1976[/MENTION] for pointing this out to me.

If you are having unusually heavy battery drain after the 4.4.2 update check you cpu governor and minmum frequency.

I have found on a couple of roms, this to be true. The governor is interactive and the minimum frequency is set to approx. 1700mhz and the maximum at 1900mhz.

A solution to the heavy drain is to drop the minimum frequency to 300mhz for example. And this should help .
[Windows 8 General] robertkjr3d:
Does anyone have power tips for the Acer W700? I have the screen brightness down. I'm not using the 'power saver' mode because of an issue with Windows 8.1. After installing 8.1 it began to drag. Let me know if there was an update or something that fixed that and I missed it or something. It seems that soon after I'm running the Acer w700, that its down to 75%. So the next thing to look at is some Acer running software. I don't use the 'Acer Ring', but yes I still have it installed. I've heard it uses some good power. Let me know what other things, others have tried, and had success with? Or should I just be thinking of a new battery?

Thankx,

Also, if I get 4.4 on my Xperia Z, how to root that? :)

Maybe you should investigate what the latest Android version is instead of asking something that no one will be able to answer.

Link me one 4.4 topic plz.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AhmedZadjali:
The latest official android version for sony xperia z is 4.3, but you can download custom rom for your device, by installing clockwork mode and then flashing the rom.

You can search over for the custom recovery and how to install it and then just download your desired kitkat rom and copy it to the phone, then flash it in recovery mode.

Cheers.

I just discovered tomtom traffic on my tomtom5 software. I tried registering my account, but realized that tomtom traffic requires a internet connection and at the same time my gps receiver uses bluetooth.

Has anyone tried this or found a workaround for this?

Also anyone know of a miniusb to miniusb cable?

This might be my only alternative

Just use your phone's GPRS/EDGE connection. That's what TomTom Traffic was designed to use. Bluetooth and GPRS can be used at the same time.

[General Questions and Answers] jbaker22:
fix

The first thing is to boot to recovery mode...

1. Pull the battery and reinsert.

2. Hold Power and Vol-Up (the top of the volume rocker) buttons at the same time, until the phone boots to a menu and then immediately release the Power button. The options will continue to scroll and when the arrow gets to [Recovery Mode] <<== , immediately release the Vol Up button.

3. The phone should now be at [Recovery Mode] <<==. If it isn't (or if the phone starts to boot to another mode), pull the battery and try again. There's a bit of a knack to this sequence and I often have to do it many times.

4. Press the Power button twice, then press the Vol Up button. The phone should now show an Androidon its back with a red triangle and exclamation mark against it.

5. Press the Power button to get to the Recovery menu. (I'm sure there's a simpler way of doing this, but I haven't found it yet!)

The next thing is to Wipe cache and then Wipe data / factory reset...

6. Use Vol Down to navigate to Wipe cache partition, then press Vol Up to select it.

7. You'll see a picture of an Android with its belly open and a message -- Wiping cache... and Formatting /cache... Wait until the Recovery menu reappears - it takes quite a long time, so be patient.

8. Use Vol Down to navigate to wipe data /factory reset and press Vol Up to select.

7. Navigate to 'Yes' using Vol Down and select with Vol Up. You'll see a message --Wiping data... and Formatting /data and Formatting /cache - wait until the Recovery menu reappears.

I am copied this info from a willington's reply to someone about this brand of phone on this site.

Rooting Archos 79 Cobalt

The ARCHOS 79 COBALT is the same internally as the ARCHOS 70b COBALT.

Both use a RT3026 chip and the only difference being the size of the battery and screen, other than this they are identical.

There is very little information listed on the forums for rooting these model tablets, and Archos theirselves are yet to list firmware on their support website.

As for recovery optiond i cannot seem to get these tablets to load a recovery. An Android picture/logo loads but no options or text is displayed. I have heard some of the older Archos tablets needed a recovery installing also.

If i can find a successful root method i will be able to research these models more. So far i am yet to find a way to get SuperUser on, but my knowledge is limited so i would not know the options available to me. I have tried a program called SuperOneClick which successfully rooted android devices for me before bu it seems to do nothing on starting the ADB service but i don't fully understand what it actually is doing at this point or whether it requires time. I waited 2 minutes and quit the program.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolshanth:
So I've googled till my face went blue and for 2 days I have yet to find a free, reliable way to transfer music from my Macbook Air to my Nexus 5.

Google Music: Not supported in my location. I used a VPN to access the page, but even Standard Access asks for $0 purchase from a US credit card to activate the account (it greys out my foreign-issued VISA as "unsupported payment method", even though the card works for everything else on Play Store). If things get really desperate I guess I'll try using a virtual credit card (which requires a small payment), but I want to hold that off for now, since I'm worried Google might have other location-banning tricks up their sleeve, and registering with a fake shipping address might come back and bite me later.

DoubleTwist: Cable sync doesn't work, and I don't want to pay for a wireless solution which will be undoubtedly slow.

Winamp: This ugly piece of crap instantaneously crashes whenever I click the sync button.

AFT: Tired of looking for a sync solution, I gave up and figured I'd just drag and drop. Hits me with "Could not create folder try reconnecting or restarting your device.", which doesn't work either. I read online that changing USB connection mode to PTP instead of MTP solves the issue, but that didn't work either.

Right now, I'm considering FTP'ing into my phone.

I'd really appreciate alternate solutions or recommendations for free FTP apps, preferably with sync feature.

Thank you
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Macs are notoriously bad with mtp unfortunately.

Ftp cafe is a good free FTP client for android. Works like any pc client such as filezilla. Can't help with making your mac an ftp server though

Foldersync can also sync via ftp....

I tried, but there's a 5mb file limit.

i bought this app on playstore before i found out it was free here, which is perfectly fine as i consider that a well deserved donation, this is a project i really hope goes somewhere, my hope is that essentially, it'll do the same thing you might find in consoles, the backwards compatibility between generations of console, like being able to play a ps2 games on the ps3, but in this case being able to, for example, play tegra 2 games such as gameloft games (which i might add gamelofts piss poor support by the way), on more recent cpu's gpu's

And big kudos to the developer man, for providing a free version for the community, not alot of playstore devs do that, so when one does its something i definatly take notice off, and makes the donation even more worth is

One question though, which one is fully featured, the playstore version or the xda version, i dont see an option on the playstore version to download any texture plugin which has been mentioned either on this thread or the other one, is it in the playstore install by default
