[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] justintime001:
I've been trying to decide on the GPE Galaxy S4, GPE HTC One, Nexus 5 or Moto X Dev Edition since I have AT&T in the USA and want a device with an unlocked/unlockable bootloader.

IDEALLY, I would purchase a Developer Edition Android smartphone from AT&T since their insurance I have covers any Android device sold by AT&T which is apparently 0. Verizon has a Dev Edition S4, and I heard rumors in 2013 of an AT&T version, but nothing at all yet.

So, if I'm going with a non-ATT insured Android, I want the absolute best functionality, specs/speed, and battery life so I can use it for at least a year to last through Android OS latest version updates as it gets better and better.

Truly the Moto X having specialized processors which dazzles me, but I wonder how long before it gets sluggish with its dual-core processor. Anyone have knowledge/experiences to share?

Thanks everyone! I love these forums!

As far as what device to get, if you want the most development and fastest updates the Nexus 5 is the way to go. The GPE HTC One and GPE Galaxy S4 are also excellent choices, but they are also 6 month old devices if your really looking for more recent device release. The Motto X is a great device with the features it offers, as far as being slow because it's dual core keep in mind it's not the usual dual core architecture it uses the custom X8 processor architecture, which you can read more about here http://www.anandtech.com/show/7235/moto-x-review/4. Overall, if I had to make a decision I would go with the Nexus 5 excellent development, specs, and value.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oldsoldier2003:
/Agree

Nexus devices are the best choice based on the OPs parameters.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] justintime001:
Awesome, thanks a lot guys. Few other questions: what do you guys have to say about it having an internal battery and and no external storage?

Also, according to the dimensions and possible button placement, my Otter box Preserver series for my S4 MIGHT allow the Nexus 5 to fit...though no guarantee. Prob gotta head to a store and try it.

Can the Nexus 5 do voice command as well as the Moto X if hacked properly?

Last Q, promise: what about selling my brand new S4 in mint and getting a Moto G until I can get my hands on the S5? Awesome as that sounds, I believe the S5 will be locked down even more.

The Nexus 5 is looking VERY attractive.

Thanks again guys.

Update and question below: I decided to list my Samsung S4 32GB that I got on Jan 21st so I can get the Nexus 5. Gonna lose quite a bit of money for all the accessories I bought for it. I'm excited, assuming my phone sells soon, I've never used swappa.com but it IS XDA recommended.

Question: Will I be able to transfer SMS/MMS from the S4 to the Nexus 5 pretty easily? I suppose there might be some contacts on-device, and not in my google contacts that I'd transfer.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
I apologize for the late response classes have been keeping me very busy.

1. Regarding an internal battery up until I bought my Nexus 10 all my previous devices had come with an removable battery, but I got used to the non-removable battery really quickly and if you need to do a hard reboot you can simply hold down the power button on the device until you feel and hear it vibrate and it will reboot. While the non-removable storage isn't optimal it's a lot more manageable if you use say Google Music to store your music, Netflix for video, and Drive, and other cloud services to store your content only keeping your most used content on the devices internal storage.

2. For the case I would like you said head to the store and see if it fits. But the main question I would ask it while we all like saving a few bucks if I'm spending $350+ on a device another $30-$40 to get a case that is meant for the device and will fit securely is a worthy investment.

3. While I don't have any personal experience with using the app the Open Mic+ app (As featured on the XDA Portal) is said to do an excellent job of simulating the Motto X touchless controls.

4. This SMS Backup and Restore app will allow you to transfer your SMS and MMS from the Galaxy S4 to your Nexus 5.

[Android General] QuantumPSI:
Hello everyone,

I am starting to get into web development and learning to code. I'd really like to learn how to use my devices for these purposes. I know there are ways to turn my tablet/phone into a web server (KSWEB), however, I am a bit unclear on a few things and not sure where to look or go.

The intent is to use my cell phone as a hot spot and then use my tablet as a web host to serve my laptop (all connected via the cell phone hot spot). I've seen how to access a web site you are hosting from a device on the device itself, but I am not clear on how to access the hosted site from another device WITHOUT a router and port forwarding. For example, let's say I'm at a cafe, I have my cell phone, tablet, and laptop. How can I access the website hosted on my tablet with my laptop through the cell phone? Would I need port forwarding through the cell phone to do this?

The reason why I want to go through my cell phone as a hot spot is so that I can still have internet access (via mobile network) on the laptop and tablet while still able to access the site hosted on the tablet.

Cell phone: Sprint Galaxy Note II (rooted)

Tablet: Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 edition (un-rooted, will root when computer arrives)

Laptop: Dell XPS 15 Touch (ordered)

I apologize if none of this makes sense or if I'm over complicating things. Just trying to get a handle on things before the computer arrives so I can jump right in and begin learning and coding. Also, the reason why I want to host on the tablet (instead of the laptop itself) is so that I can dive into development now while I wait on my computer (won't arrive until mid-march). Figure, I'd just keep the tablet as the hosting source.
[Android General] dev47:
When you create a hotspot with your phone, the phone becomes the "router".

So if you laptops IP address is eg. 192.168.0.100, the the phone IP will be "192.168.0.1" (the last octet is always "1" for the router).

Your tablet will be just like the laptop and have its own IP address, eg. 192.168.0.102.

You can connect to it simply by entering its IP address into you laptop. Since they are on the same network it'll just work.
[Android General] QuantumPSI:
Thanks! I was clearly over thinking it, but this is all new to me.

I'll try this out as soon as I am able. Thank you dev47!

[Moto X Q&A] tir918:
So I've previously tried installing a 4.4 and a 4.4.2 ROM on my XT1056, with both leading up to recovery failure once I realized the ROM does not have all of the features that I want or has some bugs.

When I installed the 4.4 over 4.2.2 without flashing it, I then ran into problems like FCs to the point where I could not even get past the screen lock. When I rebooted into recovery it would stay on for a little less than a minute, and while I was trying to restore stock, the recovery would come to a halt and reboot my system. I then had to restore my system.

Today I tried putting 4.4.2 on it and it got through but it had a feature missing from it that I was looking forward to and I tried going back to stock once again and the exact same thing happens. Interrupted restoration to a reboot of nothing.
[Moto X Q&A] dray_jr:
not sure what you did maybe try reinstalling the recovery
[Moto X Q&A] flashallthetime:
First issue is your setting will fc when your base ROM is 4.2.2 and you have flashed a 4.4 or 4.4.2 ROM, the modem needs to be upgraded to prevent such issues, second issue is the recovery which also needs to be updated to kitkat otherwise you will not be able to restore your nandroids. So you either need to update to kitkat or stay with jb and not flash any kitkat roms

[Moto X Q&A] tir918:
If I were to root 4.4 after taking the OTA, that flashes over a new radio? And if I still go through going to 4.4, would I be able to restore to 4.2.2?
[Moto X Q&A] flashallthetime:
Yes the ota flashes new radios and boot loaders, you can only downgrade from 4.4 to post camera 4.2.2 sbf firmware, I don't believe we can downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.2.2

[Moto X Q&A] Sonic-77:
Posible upgrade and downgrade for MotoX

Im quoting a post from MakTail in other forum:

=======

There are currently 4 different available bootloaders for the Moto X.

In chronological order:

1) Pre-Camera 4.2.2

2) Post-Camera 4.2.2

3) KitKat 4.4

4) KitKat 4.4.2

Pre-Camera ----> Post-Camera <-----> KitKat 4.4 -----> KitKat 4.4.2

The arrows indicate when the bootloader downgrade is possible:

------> (one way update)

<----> (you can move back and forth between these bootloaders)

=======

i think this resolves all the questions about.
[Moto X Q&A] dray_jr:
right this has to do with the bootloader only thou.

you can still flash everything else but if you do flash everything else and you get a OTA Update and you install it. It will brick your phone and it is not easy to get out of it and sometimes you can't

Hi guys

After installing new version of Android 4.4 I've managed to install all gapps but now I can't do factory reset.The phone stuck into Huawei logo.Also I have same problem if I want to enter in recovery.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] jimbo77:
You need to reflash stock recovery...

Use the recovery found in this file:

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23252070760973876

Extract from the zip and flash using fastboot commands.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] ulise73:
maybe I'm a noob and you can help:how can I do fastboot commands?Thanks again!
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] jimbo77:
Sure...

Download this file and extract it anywhere your computer...

Right click anywhere inside the folder holding the shift key and click on "Open command window here", after this a cmd window will appear...

Connect your phone and type:

adb devices

if you see an output showing your phone type

adb reboot bootloader

the phone will boot to Huawei Logo, then type:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

after it completes the process type

fastboot reboot

and after that you'll be able to perform a factory reset...

sorry for my bad english
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] ZuperStyler:
Press the power button and volume up/down at the same time, for several seconds, you should enter stock recovery.

If you don't have the update.app in your dload folder remove the sdcard, insert it into a sd adaptor,put it on your pc/laptop and copy the update.app into dload folder.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] cowe:
tried it, but the pc doesn't reconize my phone, i can not execute adb commands. i tried it, but he keeps searching for devices.

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] husen4u:
If you phone stuck at boot adb will not work. Type fastboot devices. It will show ???? Device found. Then type fastboot comands to install recovery or boot.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] iscaac:
is there something im doing wrong here HELP PLEASE
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] jimbo77:
Yep. You are doing it wrong...

In the zip file you downloaded there are two files:

1.- boot.img

2.- recovery.img

Now you need to follow this guide to flash them to your phone:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2636231

Since your phone is not booting instead of following the adb commands you need to push both volume - and Power Buttons at the same time while you plug the usb cable to enter fastboot mode.

Once in fastboot mode follow the guide (from step 4 onwards) to flash the kernel (boot.img) and stock recovery (recovery.img)

Once you have flashed both, put any ROM in the dload folder of your external SDCARD. and then reboot the phone using the 3 button combo (Volume + , VOlume - and Power Button) Note that the phone needs to be unplugged from the computer...

If its anything like the yahoo mail app its full of bugs that go on for months and months

For an alternative I would use accuweather - there are different versions - one from playstore or you can use the version iv got

here is the version iv got - install with system app installer (playstore) then add it as a widget and tap it to change location and settings

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] DavidPicksley:
Hey,

Recently I've been having a LOT of trouble with my galaxy S3 LTE. For over a year it's been fine other than a firmware problem - but roughly 3 days ago, Google Play started to not let me in thanks to a "connection error". After deleting my account from Google, clearing cache and fixing the "hosts" file. Nothing worked.

Seemingly, A factory reset would be the only solution?

So I backed up all my images, music and contacts to the SD card, unmounted it and factory reset the phone through the recovery method thinking "Finally, it'll all be back to normal" but once again. Google won't allow me to add an account and the software won't update although I have the stock firmware?

Is there any way to actually fix these problems properly?

Thanks.

[Motorola Atrix HD] JewelsBoston:
I've seen nothing BUT information on replacing the battery for the ATRIX HD, but nothing regarding replacing/switching out JUST the torn flex cable. Perhaps it's not physically possible, or the battery will burn up ;), but I would love to know if anyone has gone this far and attempted. Because my phone is out of warranty, Motorola refuses to sell me a new battery, and I refuse to ship for "repair" when I can do it myself. I've ordered an OEM battery, knowing it will be potentially old and not "new", so I'd ideally like to just take the flex cable; replace mine & keep my good battery.

I will appreciate any feedback. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for responding to my question, Deeje. I was concerned about the new battery and was even more so after receiving it, not an OEM and not even the same size. After calming down (phone was down for 10+ days) and researching my new Sony battery, I found it was of the same power spec and ended up installing. All is good, finally. I recommend RepairsUniverse for the beautiful new screen; the battery shipper shall remain nameless for their lack of communication. :)

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hybris95:
Hi everyone,

I end up here after loads of searchs and manipulations unsuccessful...

Well here is my problem :

Edit : The problem much advanced, but is still not resolved, see 5th post for more information of current status

Final Edit : Problem solved, see the 5th post.

I have a Motorola Razr HD XT925 which is Unlocked.

I tryed flashing a custom rom on it, and failed hard.

Before failing that hard, I had some backups which were working perfectly, those, don't work anymore ...

So here is what I can access :

Fastboot (works perfectly, I can access it from my PC also without any issues)

Recovery (works "perfectly", the only thing is I cant restore any backups and I can't flash any ROM well yet, tryed Factory Reset also, does not work)

Normal boot just remains on "Warning bootloader unlocked"

By the way, by doing all that my backups have gone from my phone, so I only have em on my computer which is a bit hard when you want to try a restore (on a backup that was working perfectly before).

Another thing I noticed, when trying to Factory reset for example, It says "Unable to mount '/data'" which is a bit hard if you want to write data ^^

If anyone has an idea, feel free to make a comment, any idea is accepted since I can't use my phone at all...

Feel free to ask any question if you need more information or if you did not understand something.
