[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bthurber:
Whenever I have a problem with a ROM I'm always wondering if it may be because I've avoided the bootloader update. My intention with 4.4 official is to give in and go Knox 0x1. My guess is others will do the same as it is becoming clear that newer rooms are going to need the new bootloader to avoid being flaky.

I cry reading the forums lately because half the questions are around this whole mess. If Samsung would just offer a signed package to reset the phone back to "out of the box" status and reset all flags...

Sorry to hijack the thread a bit
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Root:
I'd have to disagree. On all prior phones, I used to run Odin with the stock firmware regularly just to clean house. Now it's not safe to even do that without care. And the Odin files become harder to find. I think it's just stuff building up flash after flash that can't get fully wiped even through recovery.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsmith_00:
Hi All

I am looking to move from a HTC One X to a Moto G. My question in on the camera is it the same or better than my current HTC One X??
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] death__machine:
One X camera is better. Moto G camera is really slow and most pictures require a really steady hand. But I think it takes better low light pictures than the One X, like on the one X all low light pictures were very grainy/fuzzy so that's less out here. You'll definitely notice a bump in battery life though.

Since I did the exact move you're planning maybe a list of pros and cons of moving to moto g will help you

Pros:

Kitkat(and one more update hopefully)

Battery Life(I've got 4.5 hours of screen on time vs the 3 hours I was getting on my One X) This is the entire reason for me shift to the Moto G

Faster(?)

No random heating scenes(which wasn't really fixed on the One X)

Charges pretty quick

Cons:

Smaller Screen

Camera not as good

Prefer the slim dimensions of the One X

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yasinaydin:
the camera on the Moto G is beyond awful
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] death__machine:
I forgot to mention, the speaker of Moto G is louder than the One X by a considerable amount.

You have a thread just for posting moto G pictures in "Moto G Themes and Apps" section.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Clivectmob:
Just thought I'd throw this one in here for anyone put off by Moto G camera reviews. I have had my Moto G for some time now and it remains to be a solid, reliable phone. However, a recent sale for the Lumia 925 came up so I grabbed one as it's supposed to have a decent camera on it.

Well, having done some comparisons between the two, I can categorically confirm that 9 times out of 10 the Moto G produces more well rounded images than the Lumia. Granted, at low light, the G cannot compete, but under normal lighting conditions its actually slightly better, even when zoomed in. Text is no clearer on the 925 than it is on the G. I was really surprised by this and a little gutted I even bothered with the 925. If anyone is interested, I can upload some comparisons.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickchk:
well,that's a big surprise
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Clivectmob:
Actually, I was a bit too hasty to post in all honesty. I've just done some further comparisons, more accurately, taking into consideration the field of view of the 925 and by transferring the images actually off the two devices and comparing them side by side on the same screen. the edge has now tipped in favor of the 925, but not by a huge degree. The brighter of the two images is the moto one.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickchk:
well,i'm not photograph genius ,i think l925 got more detail and a bit less noise,especially by zoom in,but not by far,moto g in your picture still take a great picture. i really surprise :good:

i have to agree though,moto g not the best camera out there but sometimes,under a certain condition,it will take a great photo :highfive:
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaspreet997:
Well guys sometimes in class I have to take pictures of sombdy's else notes or a pic of something on notice board...mostly printed stuff

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlldll:
The camera is fine outdoors in good light. But when it is dark or indoors, and has to use higher ISO, it puts loads of noise reduction on the image and makes them look smudged.

Motorola need to reduce noise reduction on higher ISO images or we will have to wait until android release the RAW image API that they nearly released with KitKat. With that people will be able to make camera apps and choose what level of noise reduction to use at each ISO. But that could be a long wait. I don't believe any camera chip made in the last couple of years is as bad Motorola have made this one in low light. I'd rather a lot of grain and colour noise than these smudges they use for NR.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hypertx:
You need to have a steady hand when taking snaps specially in low light, camera will select longer shutter speed to compensate low light. If you have shaky hands, you will get a blurry picture.

Hi

Does anyone know how to import the wireless authentication certificate from Win7 (for a WPA-Enterprise Wifi Nework - most corporate wifi networks), and install it on Android ?

Use case: I have a laptop that connects to my work wifi using a stored certificate and would like my phone to connect to the corporate wifi as well.

Also, the company does not 'officially' support Android phones. Only BB and iPhone allowed.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Your IT let you connect BB and Iphones on the Corporate Network?

Look, as an IT administrator I'm going to say this... if your IT department wanted you to connect your Android device to the corporate network, they would provision it for you. If they are not provisioning it for you, you're probably breaking company policy. Even if it were possible, there's no way I'd help you do this.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imarvind:
I see. Well that's like saying - 'If Samsung wanted you to have KitKat on their older models, they'd provision it for you. I will not help you install kangs'.

Thanks anyway. I'll look elsewhere
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Not really, no. Installing a Kang is not affecting someone's corporate network, putting it at risk and putting your job at risk and potentially causing massive problems for your IT department.

It's more akin to saying "My company doesn't want me to have a corporate credit card. They've given me the numbers for online purchases but I want to use it in a physical shop. Can you help me print the details to a blank card"

anyway, I said "even if it was possible", meaning in other words "it's not possible"
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] int-:
I full quote.

Anyway, on serious networks the are always port-security enabled and several checks at access and distributions layers. Say that, [MENTION=2345032]imarvind[/MENTION], even if you can import your certificate, this is does not mean that you can reach connectivity ;)

any ideas? suggestions? on how to root this phone?

also, i got a question! is it required to root my phone before flashing a custom rom?

Hi,

I had rooted my S650 with the latest version of VRoot (VRoot_1.7.6.5899_Setup.exe) without problem. Just don't go to EN website to download the VRoot. AVG found trojan and block it. Use the original CN website to download and install it. After rooted no infinite 'bootloop' problem that you mentioned. By the way, my S650 using VIBEROM.

Good Luck...

+ Knowledge of compile-decompile APKs

+ Signing APKs

+ Root & Deodex

+ Notepad++

[1] You have to find 5 icon for our new 5 navbar..you can search on this forum, or you will made the icons by yourself,doesnt matter..the important is you gets HDPI icons for HDPI device, xHDPI for xHDPI device...

[2] Decompile your SystemUI.apk...go to res/drawable-hdpi (for hdpi device)...make sure your icons have same name with icons from this folder...copy your icon to this folder...

[3]Go to res/values folder and search ids.xml and open it with Notepad++..Then add this line at the end before </resources>

Save it and close

[4]

Go to res/values/strings.xlm... Add this line

Save it and close

[5]

Now go to res/layout folder and find navigation-bar.xlm open with Notepad++...

You can found this

Just replace with this

Scrip 1

Before saving, next to step 6

[6]

Find this

Replace with this

Scrip 2

Save it and close

7

Recompile and sign the APK..Push to your system

Congrats

You get navbar with 5 menus..

Note

You can chang the DIP on step 5 and 6 to customizing..

And you can change the order of the menus on step 5..just move the line like what you want..that line make order back-menu-home-lock-recent (form the left)..you can change to menu-back-home-recent-lock or what you want..just MOVE the line..

HTC Desire 500 dual sim, stock rom 4.1.2 Jelly Bean. I set in wifi sleep privacy to always keep wifi connected even in sleep mode, also in Viber i did that. Maybe its something with aplication, because messages arrive normally, just calls are problem... I read a lot on google about some ports for push notifications i opened them and nothing changed.

[General Questions and Answers] stefan8661:
I figured out the problem. Solution: set phone's wifi sleep policy to turn off the wifi when phone goes to sleep, and then in Viber's wifi sleep policy put option to always keep wifi on. That's how i solved my problem and now calls are comming just like messages.
[General Questions and Answers] stefan8661:
unfortunately it lasted for me 2 days and now again problem. I figured out another solution, install wifi timeout app from Google store, then set it to 0 sec, in WiFi sleep policy put option to disable WiFi when screen is locked. Also do this in Viber.

Then ur phone will use 3G (mobile data) when its locked, and push notifications will arrive on time, and when u unlock it it will use WiFi. That's now solution that works for me good.

another solution is to just install advanced wifi lock and problem is solved. it is problem with rom, it shuts down wifi when phone goes to sleep.
