[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] ronijn:
Hi folks,

I bought a 2014 note 10.1 and the unit itself seems to work great... except for the sd card. At first I thought it was a formatting issue, and after trying to format it on my computer using FATand exFAT and still the unit wouldn't recognize the card. So, even though the card worked on both my Samsung phone and computer, I went and bought a new card, avoiding some of the ones that have been noted as problematic on these forums (thanks for that help btw!) Still the same problem... except I noticed the card would be mounted for a split second before unmounting. If I push on the card, with the stylus for example, down to the bottom of the slot, it mounts. Let go, even with the for closed, it won't stay mounted. Thinking it was just a weird defect, I exchanged the unit at best buy... and this new unit has the same issue! I'm just wondering how wide spread this is and if somehow my local bb just got a bad batch? Have people figured out someway to fix this issue? The sd card is pretty important to me.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Geordie Affy:
Are you sure the SD card is being pushed all the way down till it clicks???

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] daryldc1991:
I agree. It can't be pushed all the way in. I do not see this issue with mine.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Peeodee:
You have to be very careful putting the sdcard in. If you pushed it in too hard and on a angle it can get stuck up under the case and destroy the slot.

I push mine in slowly with my finger until I hear it click. Maybe that chip is fried.
[General Questions and Answers] TheCarDoctor:
Hi everyone! I have a small problem with my Launch Diagun scanner. It works on WinCE 3.02.000. Battery status doesn't work. It always says that my battery is good even just few mins before battery is totally discharged. It should show battery icon when battery level is lower that 40% but it doesn't. It looks like this all the time. I hope someone can help me with it because i have no idea what to do. Thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestD0956:
This phone is the Samsung Note 2 SHV-E250K.

I have had the this problem occur after a backup. I was messing about with boot animations and when I followed a tutorial on changing it, I ended up with a blank screen as my boot up. I had created a backup before it so I restored. I rebooted and suddenly I was stuck in a bootloop where the olleh splash shows up and then stays there. I followed tutorials to get rid of the bootloop but it has stayed. I wiped my data, the cache, the dalvik cache and even done a factory reset to try and fix my problem. I am still plagued with this. I was wondering if anybody can help me please.

The phone is rooted with TWRP as the recovery. I really need help with this.

Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gokulbalram:
Either this or that :/

Two things you can do:

1. Download the firmware from Sammobile and flash it via Odin

2. Download a ROM (Preferably Cyanogenmod) and wipe system -> wipe data -> wipe cache and flash the rom, followed by gapps

Hit thanks if it helped you!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestD0956:
Do I have to have CyanogenMod or can I have any ROM?

Like an AT&T Rom and then flash the SJKernal

Let me phrase this better. Cyanogenmod isn't available for my device, but it is available for the AT&T version. Would it be possible for you to give me a step to step guide on how to install that along with touchWiz because I want to keep the S-pen.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gokulbalram:
I'm not quite used to a Note 2. I've even read about ROMs for the Note 2, but I think the S-pen would be out of the question.

EDIT: You could try porting a ROM to your Note 2 from another device with the same type of chipset/processor.

Hit Thanks if it helped!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bakhtjs:
Would you please tell where can I find Cyanogen Mod for SHV-E250K? Porting the ROM.... You mean to restore the backup of ROM from other similar phone to mine?

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Is anyone else experiencing poor call quality since upgrading to 4.4.2? I can hear just fine, but the user on the other end says it is VERY quiet and I have to yell into the phone for it to sound normal. it only seems to have happened after I updated to ARHD 4.4.2. I have also tried InsertCoin's latest revision and got the same result, even after using the Aroma option to disable the noise suppressor. I'm hoping I dont have a dud.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] ericharlz:
im sorry if this has been discussed before but I tried SEARCH button and Im having problem connecting to the database. I also browse on some thread and I didn't see an answer to my query.

So here it goes...

I got an IMate Jam from the US (Band 850/1800/1900).

1.) Is it possible to install non USA ROM like O2 Asia, Qtek or iMate WWE? Because when I tried to install the WWE version it says incompatible device (not the country error). Should I just follow the procedure from http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=MagicianRomUpgrade and everything will be fine?

2.) If ever that procedure will solve the problem.. will the band be changed to 900/1800/1900? (or is this a hardware thingy?).

2.a If it will not change the band, how bad will the signal be on a country that uses 900/1800?

2.b If it will change the band, will the reception be better?

Thanks and will wait for ur replies

i still like n4 more than n5 (n5 is too big and i like the glass of my n4)
[Nexus 4 General] zeth006:
I'm probably sticking with my Nexus 4 for a little longer. It does everything that I need and it doesn't lag and slow down like my G2x did. For now.

The one reason I may have to jump on the Nexus 5's successor is if more games gain Android controller support, which increasingly seems to be the case. All that extra performance might seem unnecessary to most, but with more and more advanced and graphics-intensive games entering play store, the extra powerful CPU and GPU aren't just gimmicks.

Still, it would help if more manufacturers would push their phones as gaming handheld machines, maybe offer their smartphones with Android-compatible controllers and a few free games for a few more bucks. I would totally jump on the package if I needed to upgrade from my N4. Imagine Google offering this package:

1. Nexus 6

2. Android gaming controller

3. $20 Play Store voucher

If the starting price for the 16gb is $349, tack on another $30-$50 for the controller, and $20 fort he voucher. $409. Tack on the package discounts you see retail stores for combos, and offer the whole thing for $400.
[Nexus 4 General] Richieboy67:
That would be cool but I don't think most people by a phone for gaming.

Still loving my nexus 4. Really was considering the 5 but I'm having no issues at all and this thing is still lightning fast. I have a good hybrid acase so it is extremely rugged and I'm just still happy with it.

Man, figure I got this thing when it was released and if I can get 2 or 3 years out of a phone I spent $350 for.. That is just freagin awesome.

If the prices drop enough though on the 5, I may bite at some point.
[G2 General] kyhassen:
I am curious because i love this phone and im trying to avoid rooting it... However their is so much damn bloatware on this crap so it slows down to the point i can't even type a text message, My HTC Hero had faster speeds than this phone at certain points and thats pathetic. Its becoming frustrating and ive already thrown this thing across the room twice now (i have insurance and im shocked it hasnt broke yet)

All my syncs are off, Wifi is usually off but it keeps turning on and thats annoying, my screen time out is set for 5 mins, my brightness is low, i have next to no apps installed because it acts up when i do.
[G2 General] vPro97:
Got full insurance? Root the heck out of it! That's not normal for a phone like this, I have the open international version and it's buttery smooth. You might want to wait for 4.4 kitkat which is assumed to come within a month or two so it's up to you.
[G2 General] trickster2369:

Thanks Devs. From my VZW G2.
[G2 General] Double0EK:
You can "Disable" all the bloat apps. I did that with my Wife's G2 and it runs buttery smooth.
[G2 General] kolembo:
This phone has never been slow, no matter how much crap I put on it.

I'm on stock, have just under ten different launchers on it, all with fat caches, all the original apps loaded and available, always on WiFi/3G, 3gigs music - the way I like it.

It has never stuttered.

For me the phone never stuttered or lag. Still on stock with no de-bloating done.

If there's a reason to root for me will be to install Adaway & stop the annoying ads. Other than that it's pretty much all set up.

Sent from my LG-D802
[G2 General] Ryoma1337:
That is definitely not normal. The stock phone is way more than adequate for your every day use, and I ran it for a good month flawlessly. However, I just liked the themes and extra abilities of being rooted (then, eventually a custom ROM) so I just did that. You can always revert back anyways.
[G2 General] osugsxr:
still debating on rooting as well, I still linger around these forums on occasion. I somewhat grew out of the rom flashing, and buying/selling phones. As for the LG G2 , its a solid phone, really enjoying the battery life, yes it probably could be better but 17 hours plus with heavy usage is excellent for me.

Debloating is probably only reason I would root, but you can also hide the apps you don't need and that is holding me over for the time being. I will most like give in to rooting the device :silly: for a few mods,

root it that wont hurt your mobile and download app master and uninstall all crapware and u good..
[G2 General] SwissCheeseHead:
Why wouldn't you root? It's very easy and you can always return back to stock with no issues. I say root it and then do whatever you want with it. Just remember to not change anything if you don't know what it does. If you keep by this one rule, you shouldn't have to worry about bricking it.

If you have a Sprint device the wifi issue is likely the connections optimizer, you can turn it off in the settings.

I went from S4 to this phone! I did the root on first startup! I think that Android is all about doing your own settings and make things just the way you want! If some company sometime release a phoen that I do not need to root and ''make my own'' I will be sad :=)
[G2 General] Steamer86:
Full reset. If same, return.
[G2 General] votinh:
My advice to you is do NOTHING with it.

Well, let's me rephrase, do nothing to it, bring it back to the store and get the iPhone. That's it!

Blaming "much bloatware" for couldn't even type a message is clueless. I said 99.99% G2 users have no such issue.

Understanding your problem first then decide what to do next.
[G2 General] lastdeadmouse:
IMO there isn't an android device that's not worth rooting. Adaway, removing bloat, xposed... why wouldn't you? Adding su is just giving you root privileges. If you expect to have admin or root privileges on your computer, then why not on your smart phone or tablet?
[G2 General] nismology:
Exactly this. There will never be an android device not worth rooting until Google/AOSP stops making basic things like local app/data backup and restores impossible without it. Something like that should just be intrinsic to android. They also need to tighten up on both the apps that are allowed into the play store and completely change the way app permissions are handled. A user should be able to block specific permissions without breaking app functionality.....and without rooting. But until then, that and the aforementioned complete local backup/restore solutions, xposed (especially xprivacy...look into it), adblock, debloat, apps like greenify keeping rogue apps in check, viper4android will require root...the list goes on and on and on.. Again, Google kinda makes us (Android enthusiasts) root by not allowing these some of these things out-of-the-box.

Edit: I almost forgot to mention, everything is way too big on this screen by default. At this screen size and pixel density, there's no excuse for the HUGE icons and text. A 400 dpi setting is what this phone should have come with from the factory. You can fit more content on the screen while still being super sharp but you can't change it without root though. Once you do, you'll wonder wtf took you so long...seriously.
[G2 General] dougthemug:

[MENTION=4259972]dal320driver[/MENTION] thank you for that and I did that but it still comes on. Slightly frustrating but oh well.. i keep turning it off.

[MENTION=2730794]nismology[/MENTION] Thanks for the info. you do make a strong statement. I just really like the phone and to be honest i really hate backing up all my stuff every time i see a new rom haha. i get addicted to it and then i usually reflash once a week to help keep up the speed. ASOP roms i never really cared for as it feels boring and like something is missing. I really enjoy the setup this phone has in every corner but the bloatware is insane thanks to sprint obviously and what not. Just way to much running in the back ground. I check my ram and it usually says i have 200-400 mb free to my ram.... which is crap, leaves no room for anything.

as for another question. i noticed this Spark update causes issues with rooting as some places states? whats the safest way to root this phone. I have used HTC phones and ADB commands as well as Samsung phones and using Odin and what not (and my google nexus 7). but whats the best method since i took the spark update.

I would certainly recommend doing this.
[G2 General] dallashigh:
I don't anticipate rooting any time soon. I don't need Titanium Backup because I don't need to flash any ROMs. This phone is fast enough for me and will be even faster once Kit Kat drops. I have disabled all the bloatware that I can and whatever's left doesn't bother me any. Battery life is great so why worry about it? Greenify is also unnecessary because the battery is just that good.

I initially thought I would end up changing the DPI but I don't feel like I really want to anymore. There just isn't anything for me that makes it worth rooting this phone. And I say that as someone who has owned four Android phones since 2010 and rooted every single one.

I will probably only start flashing ROMs once Lemon Meringue Pie (or whatever it will be called) drops and LG doesn't update. Til then, stock unrooted is all I need.

Agreed with the poster above. I just got my G2, and by this time with other phones I wanted to root/rom right away. As of now, I love everything about my G2. Yes, AT&T puts all their crap on it, but it's been disabled on my phone. Buttery smooth, no lag at all. I absolutely love this phone.
[G2 General] dirty2k9:

Im with dallashigh on this one. Had the phone a month now, and really cant think of a reason to root. I was also a flash whore with all my previous phones, but with the battery like Im getting (1-2 days) and how customizable the stock launcher is, dont really see the point. As others have said, just diable whatever bloat you dont want, and its effectively gone.
