[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Because it was limited by software, not at a hardware level. Different phone. Different radio configuration. They cannot change the physical limitations. They did not change the physical limitations. They just allowed it in software.

The radio is limited to 7 bands so if your radio has all 7 bands used and your band is not one if them then you're out if luck. Both nexus models are already configured for maximum bands

Edit> Let me try to put this another way. The hardware is limited to 7 bands. Google / LGE whatever realised with the Nexus 5 that they could use the hardware to it's maximum capacity in 2 models (7 bands) and cover all the regions that they planned to release to at the time of release. So both the D820 and D821 are at maximum band capacity.

Some other phones that may use the same radio may be released in more geographical areas and need more than 2 models, so they release 3 but instead of for example releasing 2 capable of 7 bands and a 3rd capable of 2 (for example), they release 3 capable of 3 bands each (again, for example)... So these 3 phones still have 4 unused bands left, unlike Nexus 5 which has 0 free bands.

So either the band is already there or it is not. There is no "software update" that can "unlock" additional bands. The radio hardware must be "reconfigured" completely. All capable bands are already available on tehe Nexus. To "add" a band would mean a band needs replacing which as yet, is not possible.

As I said earlier, I am not sure if the radio is physically configured or firmware managed but it is done at the factory. Whether they can do something in future (if it is the latter) remains to be seen but certainly at the moment, there is nothing that can be done.

can you send me some pics depicting the said situation please..:cyclops:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akjha96:
Late reply but>>>>>>>>

BUT N5 D821 has one free band

Outside North America (D821) Nexus 5 model:

GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz

WCDMA: Bands: 1/2/4/5/6/8

LTE: Bands: 1/3/5/7/8/20

Ok great!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tagtag123:
Delhi NCR got FDD-LTE(Band 3) + TDD-LTE(Band 40) from Airtel, it works fine on my Nexus 5. I was in a low signal region and tested the speeds on the Nexus 5(supports only band 3) and Redmi Note 4g (supports both band 3 and band 40)

The results were:

N5: 5.6mbps/1.84mbps 37ms ping

Redmi Note 4g: 5.75mbps/1.05mbps 55ms ping

The speeds are really low for LTE but the signal strength was at best -107dBm. I will probably test once again when I get a good signal.

---Update

New test with signal strength around -100dBm
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tejasjuthani:
Will Airtel 4G work on my Nexus 5 in Maharashtra?

Will Airtel 4G work on my Nexus 5 in Maharashtra? I guess the customer care told me in Maharashtra they are using FDD.

They further mentioned that I will get 4G Speeds, but I might still see H+ on the handset instead of LTE.

Confused!!!! Should I go for 4G for not?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tagtag123:
Get the free 4G sim from any airtel store, only a 2minute form fill up and a message to 121 is required.

Put the phone in LTE mode in settings.

Download LTE Discovery from playstore to see if you get LTE signals and the signal strength (-95dBm or more would be OK)

If you get LTE signals and the phone registers fine on LTE then you can subscribe a 1 day 3g pack to check speeds, if all goes well then you should be good to go with 4g.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tejasjuthani:
Thanks for your quick response. I have already taken the 4g sim however the airtel gallery folks said that 4g LTE is not compatible with Nexus 5. Even the device 4g combability test on airtel's website shows an exclamation mark.

I am by no means getting LTE, even though in settings LTE mode is enabled. Have downloaded LTE Discovery app too, but no luck.:(

Any other thing I am missing out on? Are other users in Maharashtra also facing a similar issue?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tagtag123:
Nexus 5 doesnt support band 40 (tdd-lte), band used by airtel for LTE in many circles. So that is why it isn't listed online on airtel's checklist. Delhi-NCR got both TDD-LTE and FDD-LTE, so nexus 5 works here.

Anyway, right now its not worth it. Very expensive and totally not worth it. Other telcos will use FDD-LTE, which is supported by Nexus 5. So, by that time the rates and QoS will be better and the nexus 5 will be supported.

Hi, I'm just wondering if there is a custom recovery for my Alcatel OneTouch fierce 7024W? I've been looking around for one and I've had no luck on finding one. if anyone can help me out, I'll be glad for anyone's info, thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] d10nt3:
I don't believe there is sadly. It's because the device isn't well known or really have any developers for it.
[General Questions and Answers] MDom515:
Do you know anyone that can make one for my Alcatel? I really would like to make a backup recovery if I plan to install custom roms or drivers, the sound quality on here when I have my headphones in, not so well, and I tried them with a phone with Legit Beats Audio...my sound on my phone cant compare to Beats Audio no doubt. And I want to install it as soon as I can. :/

I did root my phone with no recovery with Framaroot but where can I find a download on that software or atleast something close to it?
[General Questions and Answers] advanced_12yearold:
I don't believe there is any custom ROMS either....... I'm trying to get Xposed Framework but I want to have a Nandroid backup first. Argggg someone come up with something. This phone is becoming way more popular.

[Other Operating Systems and Languages] Blakebn2012:
Hi guys, can anyone explain to me why you can have different coding languages? I am going to try and explain it the best way possible. Pretty much I want to know why some people use other coding languages instead of others? Are some better for particular activities? Like I know cross compatibility like you can't use html to code a game online you need to use Flash or Javascript etc.

tl;d why use one language over another?
[Other Operating Systems and Languages] nikwen:
Every programming language has advantages and disadvantages. For example Java is portable but slower then, let's say, C++. C++ is less portable and needs to be compiled seperately for every OS but it's faster. Python is very easy and very portable but it's slower then Java. Html, Javascript and Go are for websites. PHP is designed for the use with databases. Prolog uses a completely different approach and is good for logical stuff.

You see, (almost) every language has its own field of application. Additionally, everyone has a favorite language for whatever reasons (e.g. because he thinks the code is pretty). So it's a matter of taste as well. ;)
[Other Operating Systems and Languages] Blakebn2012:
Thanks for the high quality response.

As a beginner, someone who wants to start developing android applications..What coding language do you think I should start with? I understand android is basically Java?
[Other Operating Systems and Languages] nikwen:
Well, it's Java with some extra stuff. That's why I would recommend starting with Java. It's portable, object oriented and you'll need it for Android later anyway.

When I learned Java, I used the Head First Java book which I can highly recommend. ;)
[Other Operating Systems and Languages] Blakebn2012:
Ok thank you very much you have been a great help.
[Other Operating Systems and Languages] nikwen:
You're welcome. ;)
[Other Operating Systems and Languages] clamum:
There's different languages for different things, like Java vs. C++ (Java is portable/cross-platform, pure object-oriented, has automatic garbage collection, etc; C++ is platform dependent and needs to be compiled on each environment, wasn't built from the ground up as OO, you need to allocate and manage memory yourself, etc. Java isn't quite as fast/efficient as C++ but it's come a long way from it's beginnings and is pretty close now, for desktop apps IMO anyway.

Then, for web development, there's Python and PHP. Both accomplish the same thing (doing back-end logic for websites, like querying databases so the data can be displayed on the page) but have different syntax. People like either one for different reasons and it's mainly just personal preference when it comes down to those.

So to answer your question, the difference between some languages is pretty great (like assembly and C#) and they're used for different purposes. And the difference between others, like PHP and Python, is for the most part superficial and it's just personal preference between the two.
[Other Operating Systems and Languages] 12er:
The main reason we do have programming languages is that working directly on the bare hardware is pretty difficult. Working directly with machine code is difficult in many ways: it is hard to be kept bugfree, even harder to be read and understood, and there is also the problem that it's only working on a specific machine. Programming languages cope with those problems by introducing programming paradigms, which make several things easier, but it turned out that there is no paradigm which covers all needs. C/C++ for instance makes it possible to work pretty close to the machine while producing quite readable code, which can be ported easily from one plattform to another (compared to using assembly language). In contrast Java introduces a Virtual Machine on top of the actual system such that it's even a lot easier run code across several systems (compile it on one machine, run it everywhere ... as long as a JVM is available), and it brings the object oriented paradigm with it. Furthermore there are declarative languages for database programming, functional programming languages or logical programming languages for mathematical problems around, and so on ... . Sometimes you might not be interested in writing understandable portable code, such that assembly language is your best pet, but that's most probably not true in most situations.

[Other Operating Systems and Languages] 7175:
Really good compact responses. I also want to recommend learning some shell programming, i.e. linux terminal programming for file/process management and low-level hardware manipulation in the kernel. Shells are usually mksh, zsh, bash, busybox ash, or symbolically linked to sh. This is known as a scripting language because you can run your programs/scripts on-the-fly without any compiling. Adding some shell scripts to your java app can make it very powerful such as with apps like trickster, synapse, performance control, etc., .. basically any kernel/hardware control apps.
[Other Operating Systems and Languages] PaulTehGreat:
Also you can try Ruby language. Its great for some everyday tasks, very simple and powerful(especially string processing). Also Ruby On Rails is very simple framework for web-developing. A week and you can try to code your own github. And the IRB console is good enough. But i duuno, is there any mobile-app-dev modifications of Ruby. Anyway, its still great enough.
[Other Operating Systems and Languages] Foxbrush:
That would be perfect, if we lived in a place where only one language is enough for all works XD

However, the really life isn't perfect.

Some works need complicated language to achieve and some don't.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mkeman663:
Hello I need a but of help my Nexus 7 is showing my nothing but the google logo and at the store earlier it showed the android with his chest up and a red triangle. it doesnt even show the moving colors after i turn it on it just sits and says google like a paper weight. i can turn it off and on but nothing more. the geek squad at best buy told me to ask for help here at Xda. last thing i was doing with it was opening deer hunter 2013 and next i go to see if it opened and it stuck on the google logo. can anyone help me fix my tablet? its not under store warranty only manufactures.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] AarSyl:
Well, sucks to be you.....just kidding...but that does suck. Now, on to more serious matters...

Do you have access to your bootloader? (hold the power button + the vol up button at the same time) If you do, you might want to look into rooting the tablet. Based on the content of your post, I am assuming that you haven't. There is plenty information about rooting the Nexus 7.2 tablet (and just about every other Android device). Simply Google "root Nexus 7 2013" and you will quickly find your answer.

Also, how much do you know about rooting and the sort? I want to know before I waste my time giving details about info that you are aware of.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mkeman663:
i dont know anything about rooting. i dont have access to the boot loader. i did a few days ago now it wont even show up, the guy and best buy tried to bring it up and its like it was showing a dead android or something chest open with a red triangle above it. he said someting about maybe have to flash a new or or something like that on to it, it wont show me anything just stays off or shows the google logo when its on :confused:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] AarSyl:
Sigh...that is the bootloader. Maybe...he could have booted into the stock recovery, which shows this or something similar for most devices. Please remember, they are reps...they may know about the software, but usually they speak from their experience or their perspective. I'm glad that he sent you here for a second opinion.

Hold the volume down button and power button to get into the bootloader. You should see some options at the top of the screen saying Start, Restart bootloader, Recovery Mode, Power Off. Not sure if those are the exact options, but it's pretty close.

Also, you need to look into rooting your device. You need to download some files first. You'll need adb, fastboot, and drivers for your Nexus.

And one last thing....what Computer OS do you use? The rooting process is slightly different for each one (Windows 7, 8/8.1, Mac OS, & Linux). If you are into computers, and you have Linux installed on a device, good for you. That is my preference when rooting, as Android is built from Linux, and naturally supported without the need for drivers.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] vbaros:
I had similar problems when I first bought it. Going into recovery and resetting the tablet cured it. You will lost all your data BTW.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] AarSyl:
He's facing the loss of his entire tablet, so I'm sure that data loss isn't the biggest thing to worry about.

But yes, just about every solution involves a clean wipe of data.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sean67854:
I'm stuck on the google logo too. I had my tablet plugged in over night and when I opened the cover this morning it woke up, but as soon I tried to access anything it rebooted and stuck.

I'm unlocked and have tried various thing. NRT doesn't recognize it as an ADB device so I don't think that will work. Fastboot works, but I keep getting "FAILED (remote: flash write failure)" when I try to use the factory flash all, or the instructions found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2381582

I can use fastboot to query the device and get it to return "flo" but it seems like the flash storage has failed.

if it's truly horked, can I use "fastboot oem lock" to relock it and attempt a warranty replacement?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] charesa39:
You can try Method 2 from this post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2513701

I know it's for the N5, but I used this one for both my Galaxy Nexus, N5 and N7. Since they are all Nexuses (Nexi?), the same general procedures apply. I always prefer to do it all manually, step-by-step, which is why I went with Method 2 in the OP of that thread. Obviously, since this is the N7, just skip the radio flashing command. Everything else is the pretty much exactly the same. If this doesn't work in fastboot, then it's probably a hardware failure.

Ok, following the lead of @crawrj, I have put together the Native HotSpot for the NAE update.

I have also added the MK2 HotSpot mods to this thread. They were buried inside crawrj's original thread, and there still seems to be some demand, so here they are also.

I flashed these using the newest philz recovery (6.15.4), but I think for these, the recovery you use doesn't really matter. Let me know if you have issues.

Not many of you are probably DeOdexed at this point, but both versions are available.

NANDROID backup first please !!!

Just because they worked fine for me doesn't mean there might not be problems !!!

IMPORTANT: If you are running a custom rom and the author has made any changes to the services.jar file,

this will overwrite them !!!

Who knows what kind of issues will pop up. If you are unsure, ask in the thread for the rom you are running.

Haven't looked in on the stock(ish) thread for awhile. Are they bugging you to death for the NAE Stock(ish)... lol

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] AcE2DuCe:
Did you make a nandroid? If so recover from the recovery mode. Also I believe this is only for the NAE stock rom. Most other custom roms come with the hot spot option so no need to flash the native hot spot . Good luck.

Stock rooted, no recovery (I'm weird like that sometimes), manually replaced the files. Worked but borked my phone, any app that updated or got installed afterwards immediately crashed. Including my root explorers. Used goo and installed twrp. Actually flashed the zip, didn't fix it. Replaced the files with original through twrp, fixed. Flashed the zip again and everything is all fine now. Tried out hotspot at work yesterday.

So I guess the moral of this is screw Knox.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cruise350:
Custom roms are usually deodexed not odexed so you flashed the wrong version.
