[Ubuntu Touch Ports to Android] ligname:
has anyone tried to port ubuntu touch on a goophone with a mtk 6572 and 1gb of ram?
[Ubuntu Touch Ports to Android] mkwhater:
its never going to happen. why you ask

well because i assume people bought a goophone to pretend they have an iphone? therefore i doubt most people would want to

also (i don't know much) but mtk don't release their kernels so can you port ubuntu to the phone without a kernel? probably not
[Ubuntu Touch Ports to Android] ligname:
Thanks, i did't know mtk is not releasing the kernel.

It's a pity,the phone has a good hardware

It's the worst phone in the world. Everything is terrible about it. The S4 is better. Google sucks. LG sucks.

What do you expect asking that question in a Nexus 5 forum? I'm not trying to be rude..I'm serious. No one in this forum is going to tell you the G2 (or any other phone) is better.

The z1 is "better" imho. Obviously it's subjective though so its a pointless argument. It doesn't make me want it more than my nexus.

If it was the same price as the nexus, im not sure i'd go for the z1. I prefer the n5 aesthetically,.its just whether that sd slot wins out in the end

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knucklesmckay:
If you need a phone with a nice camera. I would think twice about this. I have always had the best luck with Samsung when it comes to cameras. HDR+ on the Nexus 5 takes pretty good photos where there is light. Low light photos don't come out very well at all.

I like the N5 because it has a lot of nice features and there is tons of ROM development and performance is great, but when it comes to multitasking and photos, Samsung has multi window and good cameras usually. Development and updates may be hindered on a Samsung device though.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whozilla:
I have to agree with him^. You want super productivity. Go HTC. You want fast and smooth? Nexus. You want awesome camera. Samsung. You want devs to make it all of the above? Nexus 5 hands down. The support I feel on my first nexus device. This one. Is amazing
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coux:
It does all of that and it is pretty fast! Previously I owned a SG3 for one year and the change with the N5 is immediately noticeable. The camera is way better than the SG3, not so much than the SG4 or G2 at low light conditions. In my case I wanted a top phone for 400eu (32GB one), where the android version come first (with the SG3 was really annoying) and I found the SG4 and G2 too pricy :cyclops:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ditbardh:
Well... pure Google :D
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Pure Google is pretty boring if you ask me. Its pretty good once you modify or add to it, but its missing some great features that other manufacturers have. I personally would have gotten a note 3 or g2 if the pricing wasn't ridiculous off contract.

But performance is definitely better on the Nexus devices I have owned over the HTC and Samsung ones I have owned.

Nexus is pretty solid but I probably wouldn't like it that much without custom Roms and specific apps.

How much?

In the UK Nexus 5 is £300, Z1 is supposed to be £600, but can get it for £430 on Amazon.

This is:

12,329,554.14 IRR

17,713,459.45 IRR
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gotenks22:
nexus 5: prices usually between 14,800,000 and 16,800,000 IRR ( £362.048- £410.960)

z1: off-contract usually between 16,000,000 and 17,000,000 IRR ( £391.378- £415.839)

so nexus 5 prices are pretty close to z1 prices here.

Hi All,

My Verizon Galaxy S3 with Cleanrom Seven installed stopped automatically syncing my gmail. I can manually refresh my mail, but it does not sync automatically despite the sync being enabled. I've also wiped data, removed my google account, and even done a factory reset without restoring any google data...and although it occasionally works temporarily, it always stops working.

Hi all,

So I did an Odin using the MJ7 No-wipe file and everything went good. I updated to MK2 via OTA and all went good. So I re-rooted using Saferoot and all went good. Then I installed Safestrap and things were fine. But then I went to flash HD RLS12, I used the Safestrap version and ran the setup. then installed the MK2 Moduels and then reboot... here is where problems started. I couldnt get pass the my phone to go past the Samsung Custom screen. So i thought, ok i'll just Odin back to stock like I did before. So I run Odin with MJ7 No-wipe file and it says Pass. The phone starts to boot up but I notice its showing the Samsung Custom Screen then the phone just shuts off. I pull the battery and power on and still the Samsung Custom Screen and the phone shuts off. and this is where im at...

I tried to Odin again, and again it says pass... But still the same problem...

any thoughts? Suggestions? HELP!

Thanks in advance....

Not yet, I'm going to try it when i get home. I'm going to do the Full Odin with Wipe. Hopefully this will fix it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
Use Safestrap to boot the stock slot, then start over.

The most common cause of what you're seeing is that you flashed the NON-SAFESTRAP version of HD. I did that. Twice. :)

If you flashed HD over your stock ROM, you must recover by re-flashing a stock ROM. Then, do NOT flash over the stock.

Good Afternoon,

I currently have an unlock SGH-T999L with 4.1.2 and MD5 baseband. My current issue is that I get 4G once I put the ATT sim card but i dont get LTE. Does anyone have configuration modification to get LTE on a LTE Tmobile phone?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
Looks like you have a T999 not T999L based on your baseband.. That device does not support lte so you will not pick up lte with it
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] grouchystitch:
My apologies I have the MB7 baseband which is the one for the T999L
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
Alright, on the apn make sure it reads fast.t-mobile.com, everything else should be fine how it is.. Should pick up lte after that

Edit: my mistake, you need the at&t lte APN make sure it is the correct one
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] grouchystitch:
I put the right settings and its proven that even if you put a Tmobile LTE phone on ATT network the most you will get is 4g
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] srnoth:
Any update on this? Just bought a T999L to use with my ATT Straight Talk SIM card, got it unlocked and HSDPA is working fine. Is not connecting to LTE though, unless I force it using *#*#4696#*#*. At that point, it shows LTE by the signal bar, but I have no data and it says "Emergency Calls Only". After a few seconds it goes back to H+ and everything works again.

I can't think of any technical reason why the phone won't work on AT&T's network, unless AT&T has blocked non-AT&T IMEI numbers?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] JeepinxJosh:
update

I had this problem and i fixed it updating the APN info... I also since then have rooted, flashed a custom rom and updated my baseband to the newer NC1 but eitherway I have been using LTE or so the phone says for almost a year now...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] distortedvoice:
Can you list your APN settings and results of a speed test? I just got this phone and I am only getting H+
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] JeepinxJosh:
wow sorry i took so long I just saw this... Its just the APN settings that the AlL things ATT says... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2616221 like post #4 I think... APN settings make sure you flash the newest modem for your service provider (modem will not change bootloader) and flash the ATT modules also..l. and Kernel depending on what phone you have and what service your using.... I now am on an S4 I337 ATT on ATT but was running a Tmobile app the Sickness , deadly venom, dark carnage.... they all work together.... just flash rom the kernel if needed and always flash modules for your baseband so if your supposed to be on NJ4 att kk 4.4.4 flash the NJ4 modules... and so on... sorry hope this helps

First you have to cross check the numbers from its original box. If the android version/CSC/modem donot match its not a big problem. Main thing you have to check is IMEI.

[Nook Color General] therkr:
Today I tried flashing CM 10.1.3.2 stable over some old Cm10 nightly (emmc).

So I reboot into CWm and "wipe data and factory reset" before flashing the rom.

POST FLASHING

First boot took a long while as usual but the nook was very sluggish even after booting.

Also ,astonishingly, I had

GAPPS(!) installed on this ROM even though I precisely remember not having flashed the gapps package in CWM

.

I double checked the md5 hash and re-flashed the ROM but to no avail. Still same issues.

THE SOLUTION

Flummoxed I started searching if Google had suddenly started allowing CM to include gapps with the ROM. No luck there.

Then I saw eyeballer's comment here. Worked like a charm.

So basically, when in doubt, format /system

Post formatting /system and another fresh install things go back to normal. No ghost of gapps. No extra sluggishness. All cool. :good:

Now, this solution worked for me and hence I'd recommend it to anyone in a fix but I can't seem to be able to find a specific reasong for such behavior apart from a broken zip.

Cheers!
[Nook Color General] Little-Boy-Lost:
Thanks for the tip!

I was having a similar issue flashing new versions and thought it was my building from source causing ithe ssue
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
The reason gapps stays if you installed it earlier is because the ROM zip installer script has a routine built in to save previously installed gapps if you are flashing the same ROM that is just an update. It does that so you do not have to flash gapps again after a ROM update. The only way to get rid of them is to manually format /system with CWM before flashing the update.

Thanks for the explanation! I did wonder what the backup part did.
