[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Vahgi:
Hi everyone!

Today I attempted to install a ROM for the first time using ROM Manager. I flashed Clockwork Mod Recovery and then downloaded CyanogenMod and tried to install it (pressed Reboot / Install in ROM Manager). My phone then went into Download/Odin mode. It then didn't do anything for ~10 minutes, and after taking out the battery, the phone still went into Download mode. I got it to boot normally by pressing Home + Power + Volume Down and then pressing cancel when it prompted me to enter download mode. However, every time I attempt to boot into recovery, normally or ClockWork, the phone just goes to download mode. I even tried to do a factory reset, and the phone booted again into Download Mode.

Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Thanks!

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] alhadee12:
I am looking to switch to the HTC One from the S4, but I've seen in various spots online that there are currently various issues after updating. Can anyone help me with this process because I don't want to switch and encounter problems. Thanks.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Crawshayi:
Such as? I switched from the S4 a couple months ago and have experienced ZERO issues. On the other hand, I used to get random reboots/lag/unresponsiveness all the time on the S4 with no explanation. The HTC One is incredibly stable.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] alhadee12:
The issued that I read were not get 4G LTE, dropping to 1X, and battery life reduction have been some of the issues I've read about.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Crawshayi:
I can't comment on other people's experience, but I get 4G everywhere I used to on my S4 and battery life is actually better overall on this phone. I am extremely happy I switched.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] alhadee12:
Ok, thanks. What do you feel makes the One better than the S4?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Crawshayi:
For me mainly it was the ability to unlock the bootloader and be able to flash roms again, or pretty much do whatever I want. As long as you don't update the phone to the latest OTA without gaining S-off you will be able to as well.

Other things I liked over the S4 include:

-Metal build quality feels amazing. This thing actually feels premium, unlike the S4. I also don't feel like I'm going to break it if I'm using it outside of a case.

-Sense is way smoother than Touchwiz. Sense out of the box with all bloat is still smoother than the S4 with all bloat removed (on Touchwiz). I really like the minimalist style and smoothness of Sense.

-The IR blaster is WAY stronger than the S4's so it feels a lot better to use day to day.

-Screen brightness is great, and colors are more accurate. I thought I preferred AMOLED colors but turns out I'm liking the more realistic tones of this display. Your results may vary.

-Speakers are incredible. It makes any media consumption on the device automatically better just because you can hear everything clearly and loudly. Call quality is great too. I have my alarm clock on half volume and it's still louder than the S4 on max.

Okay now it sounds like I hate the S4, which isn't true, so here's some things I DON'T like about the HTC One:

-Camera is pretty good, but the S4 is just a beast. If I could switch the camera on this to the S4 camera, I would.

-Button placement. I kinda get what they were going for, but the ergonomics of it are awkward and take some getting used to, especially the power button. I miss having a menu button on the bottom as well.

-No removable battery or storage. I barely ever needed a removable battery, but having limited storage really blows no matter what device you're on. I haven't filled it up yet, but I'm much more careful about how much I'm using than I was on the S4.

-It's not available in black. This isn't really HTC's fault but still it's worth mentioning. This phone looks incredible in black and it's not possible to get on Verizon. Very annoying.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] woznet:
There is an option in Settings > Display, Gestures and Buttons to change the function of long pressing the home button to work as a menu button. I got used to using the menu button on my HTC Incredible, same with the micro sd card, removable battery that the HTC One just doesn't have. However thanks to this setting that is no longer one of my few complaints about the HTC One.

I apologize for not being able to give more specific instructions on where to find the setting, in ViperOne the setting has been moved from Settings to Viper Tweaks, along with having a customized settings menu.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] alhadee12:
Is that on a rooted device? I have no idea about rooting and the benefits of it.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] woznet:
That is on stock, and the section in Settings is called "Display, Gestures and Buttons". In that menu the second section down titled "Buttons" click the first option under "Buttons" and you will get 2 choices, you want the one that says hold for menu.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Crawshayi:
The lack of a menu key is honestly one of the smallest issues I have with the phone, and I'd rather have it stay as a dedicated Google search shortcut instead as there's been times when I need to bring it up immediately. Besides, even if you use the home key as the menu you still need to reach up to use the options in most cases, unlike the Galaxy phones which keep the menu selections at the bottom of the screen.

Since I'm on Bonestock right now the power button isn't really a huge issue anymore either, as it has volume keys to wake function so you don't always need to reach for the power button up top.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] donatelli:
The only issue I've had is the screen will turn off, usually when on the phone, and it will take a second or two to respond and come back. Other than that, the One has been stellar all around. Build quality is definite thing to note, and Sense is quite nice compared to Touchwiz.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Crawshayi:
Sounds like you just tripped the proximity sensor by accident, it will turn the screen off during calls when it thinks it's next to your face
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] redhotiron2004:
Apart from your increased smoothness and responsiveness the problem that I had was a software problem. Office suite pro. My excel documents just started to have a different format. And it was working fine on 4.2. It was however solved by installing the very latest version of suite pro.

This might be the result of some basic changes at the base of JB 4.3..

This happened in both xperia ZR AND samsung S3.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] alhadee12:
I just got the HTC One and I'll see if the experience is better. I do like the feel of it, but I put it in a case anyway.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] santserge:
Hi all,

I have a network drive with my media library attached to the router (belkin 600 play). Also I have Xperia z tablet and dlna enabled Samsung TV. Router is not a dlna media server.

I need a player for android that can

1)see not just servers but all shares of the local network. (bs player can do this the way I would like to)

2) play all formats is "a must"

3) cast playback to TV (as a dlna server)

So as for now there are tons of players with different combinations of these features, but none combine them all. I wonder if bsplayer pro can play to TV, but not ready to pay 7$ to get Answer))))

Thanks

Can you give more details about your device (HBOOT, RADIO.. etc.) Go to hboot or fastboot mode and post all the screen information, maybe that will help to find out what's going on.

[General Topics] internationalistic:
I have been using Google Voice v0.4.2.32 on my Android Phone for a couple years. On 01/03/2014 my Google Voice App stopped working on three of my phones. It no longer updates when I receive new Voicemails or texts. First I checked for service outages but I didn't find any. I was able to log into my account online, but not through the android app. Then I went though these steps to troubleshoot the issue:

1. I first tried to log out and then log back into the app but I got this error message: "We have a problem. Your account status could not be loaded. Please try again."

2. I updated my version successively to 0.4.2.36, 0.4.2.44, 0.4.2.54, and when I got to 0.4.2.66, I couldn't use the app anymore because it required that my phone be signed into a Google Account (I use an android phone but I do not have it connected to a Google Account)

3. Then I did the same thing on another android phone that I have connected to a Google Account and when I updated to 0.4.2.66, and I signed in with the google account connected to my phone, it worked. After that, I downgraded back to 0.4.2.32 and the app would no longer connect to the network. It would not connect to the network even when I tried to sign in with the Google Account attached to the phone on versions older than 0.4.2.66. I kept getting this error: "We have a problem. Your account status could not be loaded. Please try again."

I posted this on the Google Voice Forum and someone else also confirmed the same problem and another person seemed to have the same issue in a different post. I would provide links but I am prevented because I have not met the minimum post requirement on the forum.

This essentially prevents any android phone that's not connected to a Google account from using the Google Voice app. Before January 3, 2014, anyone could use GV on their phone if they stayed with and older version (which was a much smaller app than the most recent version). Now only users using a more recent version (0.4.2.66+) of Google Voice with a Google account attached to their phone can use the app.

I did not find any announcements by Google of this change in their service. Does anyone else have this problem and/or know why this change has been made.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexs77:
Hi

I've got an issue with my stock and rooted Nexus 5 (4.4.2). Based on what Better Battery Stats shows, the device is always Awake (see attached screenshot "Nexus-5-Never-Sleeps_c.jpg"), or, put differently, never in Deep Sleep (→ "Nexus-5-Never-Sleeps_g.jpg"). Additionally, I see that there's a *backup* Partial Wakelock, which is always running (→ "Nexus-5-Never-Sleeps_d.jpg").

While the battery drain isn't that bad (-17% in 7 hours), I still find that pretty strange. The device was "idle" all that time (ie. just lying there, with constant Wi-Fi and screen basically always off, receiving SMS and vibrating at times).

I have switched from 4G to 3G data connection and have disabled Dropbox photo sync. I also turned off Google+ pictures auto backup (and also sync of Google Fotos and Google+ Fotos in the account sync settings).

Hm, ja, well, how to allow the device to go to sleep/how to find out, what's keeping it awake? What's that *backup* wake lock?

Thanks,

Alexander
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
That is strange. Hopefully someone can chime in on what backup might be doing but if I ever notice something running abnormally long like that a phone reboot usually fixes it right up.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
17% in 7 hours is horrible. I lose maybe 3% in the same amount of time. Have you tried disabling your wifi? Or changing the sleep policy to "only when plugged in" or "never"?

Also, do you have your N5 setup to backup to google servers? I'd disable that as well.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FuMMoD:
What app did you use to edit your pictures?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexs77:
Yeah, a reboot often fixes it - I think I rebooted already. Will do now and report back tomorrow night. Thx.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexs77:
Disable wifi? How to get data then? That's no solution, as the N5 is then just a paper weight. Data is too expensive and slow.

I have backup enabled. And, well, for kicks and giggles, I'll disable that as well (after tomorrow, as to not mix up results with having rebooted). Where do I disable backup exactly?

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
I'm not 100% sure what that *backup* represents but I would guess it's the one you can find in Settings under Personal called Backup & Reset. It could also be related to Auto Sync.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
I'm not saying permanently disable wifi, just when you aren't using it. You can set your wifi to sleep when the phone sleeps. When you turn your screen back on, your wifi will turn back on as well. It's in advanced settings.

For backup, there is an option in settings called "backup and reset".
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FuMMoD:
Ok in wifi go into settings and disable wifi analyze, in locations select Battery saver, if you have app Ops then use it to disable location in the Google play services.

Ok, so being a fan of MIUI I decided to try out v5. After some use I decided to revert back to Gummy's KitKat. But that's where I found my problem. I can't boot into recovery. I did a root checker and it says that I have no root. So not only am I lost and confused but I'm stuck. How can I revert back to the other ROM if I can't even boot into recovery? I can't boot into anything other than starting up the phone itself. Other than that everything works.

You can try using mobile Odin to flash a stock AT&T ROM and update from there. AT&T never released a complete stock 4.3 ROM, only an update.

Any particular reason you want to go back to stock? It's unlikely you will have a warranty from Samsung since you flashed a custom recovery on a 4.3 ROM which would have tripped the knox counter.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] allquixotic:
Hi,

I am aware that the "normal" way of flashing an FXZ with RSD Lite will wipe your entire phone, you lose all data, but everything is restored to stock.

I would like to keep my data if possible. I know that House of Moto can keep your data when upgrading, but has anyone tested it specifically with going from 4.2.2 OTA 1 to 4.4?

I have a non-dev XT1080M (Droid Maxx), rooted using RockMyMoto, but without having applied WpNoMo or SlapMyMoto. I'd like to use House of Moto's data-preserving FXZ to attempt the update. But I won't do it unless someone else has tried it first (either someone with a dev edition because they always have a way to un-brick, or a very brave person, or someone who doesn't use their Droid Maxx as their main device). My phone is my lifeline so I can't afford more than a nominal risk that something will go wrong during the upgrade.

Thanks!
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] livinitwarrior:
huh. I have no idea, in the way to upgrade. I think of the FXZ as the major fix- it's the big factory reset button. I know supposedly if you do the fastboot FXZ, you can save data, but I've never gotten it to work and had to set it reliably with RSD. The most solid way I've seen is use the update.zip in the stock recovery, or take the regular OTA.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Caseyk621:
You can use House of Moto it has an option to keep data. Works well. I've used it. My phone is also my lifeline. There's many ways to get your phone back should something go wrong. Its actually quite hard to completely brick it!
