[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrObvious:
One thing I've noticed as a weirdness is the cache of a phone can get stale and so it gets into some weird loop that drains battery or something and clearing the cache improves battery life. Also sometimes apps can develop bugs or new wakelocks when you do an update so sometimes you have to stay on top of it to track it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistahseller:
Thanks for the cache thing I have never thought about that before :good:

---------- Post added at 12:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:23 PM ----------

If I did not use some preventative measures to prolong battery life I would maybe get 14-16 hours in a day of usage, I always left wifi on, bluetooth even when not connected, data, force LTE, etc. I did not care because I charge my phone every night. I just find it silly if I get a day usage out of my phone and it is at 50% well assuming you use the phone the exact same as the last day you will use another 50% and it will be dead by the time you get to your charger.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vetal_ca:
Hello,

I am a noob in alternative Kernels

I've got a faux kernel installed from http://faux.romhost.me/mako/kk44/

I've flash it over CM 11. Rebooted (with strange "animation"). Got all screwed up colors (blue<->yelow etc) swapped.

As much as I understand, I should have installed Fauxclock app as a way to pay-off the kernel. I did install, tried to play with gamma from app.

So settings do affect the gamma a bit, but colors remain screwed up regardless. I refreshed, rebooted. No effect. Had to refund it within 15 minutes so I am not stuck with disfunctional phone.

As well as that, I've got some blinking/refresh going on. If I run Juice defender, UI is completely off and looks interlaced

My ultimate goal was to use Faux sound control to use it with CSIpSimple over 3G. Is there a way to fix colors while not using everything else

Yes, I read FAQ (http://xdaforums.com/nexus-4/orig-development/kernel-ver-031-mako-kk-4-4-uv-otg-cpu-t2008222) Yes, I wiped cache/dalvik cache. Yes, I rebooted. Yes, I reinstalled Gaps. So what is wrong, where is the mistake?

Thank you
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vetal_ca:
Found solution

After long-long research, found a key info.

1. Google - "CAF vs AOSP"

2. Download zip here: http://xtrymind.com/2014/01/franco-faux-kernel-for-cyanogenmod-11/

I understand, that for some inverted colors, kernel subtypes etc, is something their mom sang as lullaby.

But for me it was totally new info. So point is, Franko, Faux etc - please, put this info to your F.A.Q. There are people who has very different interest and have absolutely no idea about this "very specific details".

Thanks

Anyone else had this? i get 28 days to send it back if its faulty but they said on the phone they would check to see if it was faulty before sending out replacement and if they got it now it would look like there is nothing wrong..so i guess ill have to see how it goes

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] TabGuy:
I have both a Note 3 and a Note 10.1 (2014). I set up Watch On on the Note 3 with no problem. I have a Sharp TV with Verizon FIOS running through Windows Media Center with a cable card tuner. Works fine. I can control my TV and Media Center through the Watch On app.

However, on the Note 10.1 there's no such option for Microsoft Media Center as a DVR in Watch On. The Watch On app is very different for these two devices. I understand that one is a phone and one is a tablet but the version numbers are waaaaay different. For the Note 3 the Watch On app says it's version 6.2.6. On the Note 10.1 the version number is 13112604.1.51.21.

Anybody have any ideas on how to get Windows Media Center as my DVR/Tuner/Set top box?

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] bliiink:
i've read somewhere in ba forum on how to do it,

example to reset outgoing timer, you write down the current time in the timer. let say its 2 hours. then u call someone, while still on call, you set your clock backward 2 hours. hang up, then set back the clock to the current time.

same goes to incoming timer. dont know if it works in magician.

After seeing the release of the 128GB microSD card, I'm considering using it to replace my 120GB iPod.

-Does it support USB audio out? Currently I'm running SlimBean on it, and I have a Fiio E18 portable amp/DAC, and I'd like to use it with the cappy as a USB DAC

-Can the Captivate take microSDHC cards?

-Are there any ROMs I can flash that would remove access to the cellular bands?

Both are stock rooted. I had fauxkernel on the 5 but I returned to stock for testing, but other people said works fine with other kernels including faux... Bad adapter? Bad HDMI? Bad phone? Works with my nexus 7, so why not the 5?. Weird
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex240188:
are you referring to this one

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Nexus-Slimport-HDMI-adapter-projector/dp/B00DWGB6CU

this is the analogix one i purchased and it works fine with my Nexus 5, also using Faux Kernel 10m

I'd guess you have a problem with your phone
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stealthj:
Yep. That's the one! Analogix sp1003

UPDATE: ordered a off brand adapter and it works with my nexus 5 after awhile.... I ordered a HDMI 1.4a cable to use with the adapter to see if its the adapter or what, but not sure what's up cuz the 7 works fine with it. I also ordered a HDMI to micro USB cable (no adapter)... Will report on those as well

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GM96SWM/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stealthj:
UPDATE!!

ALRIGHTY THEN!

I received all the products today!

REPORT:

Connected the HDMI 1.4a to the nexus 5 to see if that would work.... NO GO Analogix sp1003 + nexus 5+ HDMI 1.4a = NO GO on my nexus 5.... BUT, it WORKS with the nexus 7 (2013).... but my nexus 7 worked with the old cables anyway so i expected it to work.... Analogix adapter? RETURN to amazon!!

so, offbrand LinkS 6ft Slimport to HDMI cable that i got (link above, no adapter, just cable)...... WORKS with BOTH my nexus 5 and 7! yay!

why the hell does the official analogix ( i don't know if its official but....) not work with the nexus 5? I don't know, and i really don't care now because I have a cheaper set up with no need to carry around an extra HDMI cable...

By the way, I think i may have gotten a bad adapter from analogix, but I mean, it works flawlessly with my nexus 7 but not at all with the 5 so not sure on that, many of you reported that the analogix is the perfect one for the 5, but it was a no go for me, so YMMV! ( your mileage may vary) ;)

any questions? :)

Does anyone know if Samsung is looking to update the note 8? I know the tab pros just came out but I haven't seen any mention of a note refresh. The tab pro 8.4 looks nice but I just got the note 3 and I love the s-pen so if I was getting a tab, I would want that functionality and the 10.1 is just too big for me.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] gooberdude:
I don't know.. it seems to me that Samsung has pushed the Tab 8.0 to the point of overshadowing the Note 8.0 in the market. Plus that the Note 8.0 was overly priced over the two.

Because 9.0 is what peeps seem to be happy with for mid sized tablets. Samsung may just drop the Note 8.0 and live with 10.1 design and carry over 8.0 to just Tabs.

Hey guys. I just got this second hand O2 XDA Mini a few weeks ago and I was challenged to bring it back to it's former glory. It as pretty run down but still in good working order so I decided to do a complete make over.

First, I went about flashing the ROM to the Latest Big Storage ROM which really helped me cram all my necessary apps. Second, I started looking for a replacement fascia/housing to give the Mini a fresh new look. I decided not to go with the Original fascia/housing because it was too expensive. Instead, I got this OEM (non-original) replacement fascia which came in a variety of colors. For my Mini, I decided to go with black. The keypad itself was black which made it unique.

I then went about the challenging and harrowing task of disassembly. After a couple of hours and many sweaty hand wipes later, I managed to put the new fascia together with nary a problem. I put my "new" Mini in a crystal case in order to protect it from scratches and voila... My own O2 XDA Mini Black Edition! Even blacker than the oiginal Black Edition.

Check out the pics...

I was once in Greenhills (Vira Mall). It is a shopping mall in the Philippines and there's an area with retail stores (mostly run by Chinese) dedicated for all type of phones. They do repairs, unlocking, conversions, and sell all sorts of accesories. Prices are quite cheap (in comparison to US and European prices) but most accessories are coming from China and are of very poor quality according to our standards. I didn't buy anything because of the quality of products. I've never been to BigShot but I guess it's something similar.
