[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goofball2k:
No regrets, had the N4 for about 4 months before moving to the N5. N4 was my first foray back into Android phone since the LG Eve (which Rogers/LG abandoned pretty much, had to beg to get 1.6 when everyone else was getting 2.2). N5 to me feels much more refined than the N4, in terms of just the feel of the phone itself (thinner, sleeker, barely taller but the screen difference was noticeable). That said, it's much more like an evolutionary vs revolutionary device when compared with the N4.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OuncE718:
The Nexus 4 isn't that bad although the only thing I miss/don't miss is the glass back. It made the phone stand out but I was so scared of damaging it.

What I really do love about the Nexus 5 is that we now have the option for a 32gb (which I now have unopposed to a 16gb Nexus 4). The screen is also a lot better, camera is a million times better and the speaker has definitely improved over the Nexus 4. I remember being embarrassed when showing a friend or a family member a YouTube video and them asking me to turn my volume up and I'm like "its all the way up".

Why not get the N5 now and the N6 when it comes out? Or do you have to sign a contract to get the upgrade?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olyloh6696:
Thanks for the feedback guys!

I would like the feature eventually in my next phone, but I'm not desperate for it now, and I'm happy with my 3G speeds.

Really? The tough point for me, watching speed tests I can't see that much of a difference! The difference seems minimal (like 1-2 seconds)... Can you expand on your statement please?

I don't usually change phones very often frequently, so if I did get the N5 I wouldn't be expecting to get an N6 straight after in a few months.

So its really just one or the other.

I've read various reports (rumors?). Are you referring to the one about Google stopping the Nexus line and offering a "Google Experience" phone?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jooosty:
I'm not too sure , I've read on phonearena.com saying during the MWC, a google representative stated there will be no new nexus device before Q4 of this year.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shark_125:
So i had the Nexus 4, changed to Galaxy S4 and i am now on my Nexus 5.

Speed is a reason! You don't see that in speedtests but Nexus 4 and S4 had some laggy feeling that the Nexus 5 doesn't have. I played last week with the nexus 4 of a friend last week an i felt like i went back to stoneage... But afterall its everything a matter of perception.

The second reason to change is the camera! I hated the really bad camera of the nexus 4, i liked the camera of the Galaxy S4 and i love the camera of the Nexus 5. Yes the galaxy s4 has a better camera on high light conditions, but i make 90% of my pictures in parties/night under low light conditions and there the camera of the Nexus 5 is brilliant!

The third reason is Nexus wireless charger with it's magnets and the vertical charging! Really nice although a bit expensive gimmick.Really good to use in your car.

After all everything goes down to the money. I was able to make the change without paying anything, but i would definitely make the change even if i had to pay! :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pcdonovan:
OK so I'm sure this would be of benefit to many I605 users. Does anyone have the factory EFS folder minus the device specific info.

In an attempt to regain lost storage during the install of Linux on android I had erased and cleared EFS during a re flash of the Kies factory mj9 image. This was before anyone had posted that anyone wanting to install custom roms should not Flash this version.

I am aware that the EFS folder contains all of the device specific info required to provide proper cellular connectivity, and that people will not share this folder not wanting to give away their own devices identity.

What I'd like to know is what files exactly contain what device information. I may be mistaken but many of the files are provider specific and not device specific which would help me in repairing the Baseband Version. UNKNOWN. Apparently with the baseband unknown many of the I'm either repair tools will not properly connect to the phone to write the proper Imei.

Cmon guys with this wealth of knowledge here on this board I would think this wouldn't be such a hard thing to repair. Besides the Imei what other private device specific info is found in the EFS. It's already well known that that the Imei is found at the 550 memory address with this being the case this could be deleted and added after the EFS has been restored.

Some one please help.

[General Questions and Answers] doctortonic:
I currently need to unlock my mother phone, which is samsung galaxy mini 2 s6500

Few years ago, I had unlocked my own phones from carrier, which was Sony Ericsson Elm, K810i, Nokia N95 8gb, using a service software.

With that service software I "unbranded" the phones software on them was from the carrier (vodafone,orange) and I installed the ORIGINAL software from the Manufacturer (Sony/Nokia) which was designed to run on that phone.

Back then there where two options for unlock as I remember, by using the service software and the second one some imei unlocking.

What are the different methods of unlocking the phone from the carrier network on the android phones?

I assume they are like:

1) Unlocking with an IMEI generator

2) Finding the unlock code which is hidden in a file which resides in the phone memory (dose it needs root/jailbreak?)

Are there other methods of unlocking? Is there a service software for phones which can write the original software on the phone which is "unbranded" for android phones, what are the risk, which one is he safe way or which path is more healthly?

How can I backup the phone operating system, and so on before unlocking?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orel1996:
Hey, first of all thanks alot for all the development and crazy amount of information going on in here :)

I have searched but unfortunately I couldn't find a solution to my problem so I'm asking here. I recently installed official Cyanogenmod 10.2 stable release on my i9300 international S3 (since CM11 gave me some bugs) and it's pretty great so far, but I've been searching a way to change the color settings of the screen. On CM there are some built in ones but I don't really like those. On the 4.3 Stock Samsung ROM there was "Professional Photo" or something like that that I did like. Does anyone know what I can do? If I understood correctly kernels can do that sort of stuff but I didn't find a kernel to suit my needs.

Thanks in advance :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toshal_tambave:
You Got It Right

Yes you understood it correctly If your Planning to run a ROM based on CM Screen modes like Dynamic, Professional Photo etc Are available only through custom Kernel.

In Sammy as v all know you can change it under settings but for CM unfortunately you have to stick to Kernel Settings to do that.

Almost All popular Kernels Have that option under Screen>MDNIE mode

All you have to do is select the right kernel

Unfortunatly You asked a Question in this Thread and Also Gave an answer for the same.

Just remeber that for CM ul have to stick to some Externel Kernel as these options wont be available with stock CM 10.2 Kernel as well

Just as a recommendation give GoogyMax , Boeffla, Agni a try as these gave me really good results(Special Thx to Dev's of the same )
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orel1996:
Thanks for the reply :)

I've looked into GoogyMax and Boeffla but as far as I could tell they don't support color changing. If I do install them what can I do to change the colors?

And I have yet to install a kernel, does it come in a zip file that I can install in CWM? :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toshal_tambave:
Wrong GoogyMax supports it . Give it a try .

N Yes Kernel Comes in a Zip File . Just Flash Via CWM. NO WIPEs Required

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orel1996:
Thanks again :)

Another question, say I install the kernel and I want to update to CM11 or flash a Samsung based ROM. I need to first flash a new kernel and then install the ROM? Where can I download the stock CM kernel?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toshal_tambave:
No need to flash kernel. Just Download the Zip of new Rom , flash and ur set to Go .

Even i dont know where to find Stock CM kernel . Check on its Thread . N it Comes within the Roms Zip and is flashed by default on all CM Roms

there's a thx button u can use it instead of typing .....nyways welcome :p

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] jgc70:
I have been away from Android and recently made the switch back (Smart Move!). I bought a Galaxy Note 2 and rooted it and tried some custom ROMs. In the process I tripped Knox and then I went back and read up on it and understand how it happened. I sold that phone and got a S4 with 4.2.2 stock on it. I want to root and move up to a 4.3 custom ROM but I want to make sure I have the steps down as far was not dealing with knox again.

1. Root the phone (I used Chainfire Auto Root previously on the Note 2)

2. To move up to 4.3, I need to find a custom rom without knox and flash.

3. If I ever want to go back to stock 4.2.2, I should be able to if I never install knox (this is the piece that I really want to verify).

Tripping knox isn't a showstopper by any means but I would like to get back to the original stock firmware if I wanted to so I asking if the steps above are accurate. From what I have read, I think if I stay away from custom roms with knox, I should be okay.

I've recently installed Cataclysm 4.4.2 on my N5. It seems great, the only thing I am missing at the moment is that I'm unable to add a chrome bookmark to my Homescreen.

I've searched the forums and I can't seem to find any other thread that has been raised for this.

Thanks a lot.
