[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
First....Samsung is trying to be an iPhone. I doubt you'll even be rooting them soon. They're shutting the door. And being stuck with touchwiz would be a horrific nightmare. LOL

Second....aside from camera improvements, which will only get improved to a point, since ALL phones are terrible cameras compared to a hundred dollar actual camera.....how much better can phones get? The top phones are damn quick....how much smoother or fast can they get? Nanosecond improvements....LOL. performance is near maxed ...improvement in the future will be slight, at best.

Third....people are always going to RUN not walk to buy the latest and greatest, even tho their phone is only 6 months old. So yeah, new phones will sell. Will it make the previous models seem out dated, or obsolete? LOL. Maybe to the nerdiest of nerds....but to most people, NO. Use your N5 for a day, then say the N6, or whatever they call it.....will it be night and day? Yeah right. LOL. The N6 will be slightly better. Slightly.

But, to each their own. Some get 2 or 3 phones a year and think the new one destroys their old one. LOL. That will never change, and to each their own.

Will this years new phone make the N5 look old.....no chance. Most will probably lag, be locked tight...so no root, and have tonnes of new bloat ...that can't even be disabled. ;)

I'll hold on to this phone awhile thanks. :)

In my opinion, Nexus 5 will be out of dated at least next 2 years. And after 2 year's, we need a new phone.

I will use Nexus 5 until Google don't want to support this device anymore.
[General Questions and Answers] TonskuDaigle:
Hi,

So I got the i9506 and since I've played around with my i9100 for a couple of years rooted, I decided to root my i9506 too. Before doing so, the phone installed 4.3 via OTA. I've been unrooting i9100 over and over while installing custom ROMs and so forth.

But now as I was trying to root my i9506, a problem struck. As I was flashing the Philz FW, it failed and now I'm stuck with "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.". Well that's a mighty good idea, but for some reason Kies does not recognize my phone. I googled and and some other people have this problem too and I'm yet to find a solution with Kies.

So I arrived to XDA, once again, and tried looking for a solution. Found this topic and already hoped that I was saved. But either my understanding of the whole thing isn't enough or it doesn't have the solution for me, I just couldn't get my phone fixed.

So now I'm stuck with the "Firmware encountered an issue..." screen and I don't have a way out. Could someone please help me out?

Any help is much appreciated!

PS: I'm from Finland.

I was using another microUSB cable to do the job, but after changing to new white cable that came with the phone, it passed! Now all's back to way it used to be before all the trouble. Even my phone name and all are intact.

[Asus Transformer TF700] Drenus:
Hi all, sorry about the lengthy post but I would appreciate any feedback on a feature.

Is there a way to change how the stock browser saves bookmarks? For existing bookmarks, it would be great to have an option of updating a bookmark rather than saving a new bookmark. What I mean is this:

1. I have a bookmark for page 6 on CROMBi-kk thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2672751&page=6)

2. When I saved the bookmark, page 6 was the last page on this thread.

3. Later, new posts on the thread have pushed the last page to, say, page 8.

4. To bookmark the latest last page (page 8), I would delete my bookmark to page 6 and save a new bookmark to page 8.

5. Is there a way to configure the browser so that if I try to bookmark page 8, the browser recognizes that I already have a bookmark to page 6 on the same thread and then offers me the option of updating my page-6 bookmark to make it a page-8 bookmark? This would remove the extra step of deleting old bookmarks.

A poor alternative to having the latest page to a thread bookmarked is to modify the page=# to a large number. So if I edit my bookmark to (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2672751&page=999), then when I click on it it'll go to the latest page, whether it be page 6, page 8, or page 600 (assuming it's less than 1000). The problem with this method is that ideally I would like to go back to the latest page I had read, and then update the bookmark once I've finished reading the latest last page of a thread.

If there is no way to configure the browser to have this update bookmark functionality, is this something that could be coded into our browser? I've been wanting to jump into some android coding, and if the experts here think this is a doable-project for a newbie, I would love to try my hands at it.

Thanks!

[Shield Q&A] mta1981:
Ok so by now we all know the Nyko pad is garbage. If I didn't have my galaxy s3 still floating around, I wouldn't have been able to downgrade to jb 4.1 in order to use the Nyko app to update the pro pads firmware which in itself is a ridiculous process. So even with the firmware update, the L and R triggers still don't work. I was playing Dead Trigger 2 and before the update the R trigger wouldn't work, now after the update the L trigger doesn't work. I was playing Doom GLES (awesome btw) and the triggers don't work at all. So can anyone offer any insight? Would this be the same with a diffferent controller? Is it just a matter of the apps not supporting controllers with triggers? Is there a better controller option for console mode besides the Nyko? The Nvidia Shield is an incredible device, though I bet we all wish it was a little more plug and play without all these issues. Hopefully Shield 2 will nail it.
[Shield Q&A] hexitnow:
I havent had any problems with the shield and controls. Between games supporting the shield and using the gamepad mapper, i havent had any issues. I havent played a plethora of games either.
[Shield Q&A] mta1981:
Are you using the Nyko pro pad in console mode and the triggers work?
[Shield Q&A] hexitnow:
No i should have clarified that in my OP. i have a pretty long mini hdmi cable so i just use the shield itself for a controller. If u have a ps3 controller check out six axis, i think its one of the better options when it comes to using a secondary bluetooth controller
[Shield Q&A] mta1981:
Yeah that was actually going to be my next thread, asking opinions about using ps3 controller and sixaxis. I'm going to try that. How long is that HDMI cable you have lol.
[Shield Q&A] hexitnow:
I wanna say its 20 feet long but it might be shorter and the one in my gaming room i have a 6 footer. I use my 42 inch tv as a monitor
[Shield Q&A] mta1981:
Quick update. I returned the nyko and just for kicks I tried the Red Samurai Bluetooth controller that Gamestop sells and the triggers work without a hitch!!!!! None of the hiccups that the Nyko had and its only $25 bucks. It doesn't have a home button or the mouse mode that the Nyko has but its truly not that big of a deal to exit out of any app the long way. The right analog stick still functions as a mouse like on the shield itself so console mode is good. Played Dead Trigger 2 no problem.

I've read a lot on the Tab 3 7.0 (I own one ?) but don't quote me. I've read that its extremely difficult to make ROMs such as PAC. They've tried to make CM10 but couldn't they switched the project to CM11 (I'm not too sure if they're still working on it) and are still having difficulties. I think its mainly due to the Marvell processor that powers the Tab. For more info just head over to the SM-T210(R) forums.

Hello guys,

I just joined the NOTE 3 community, [SM-9005] model. I am really excited about the device it's such a beast.

Now I wanna root my phone and install an awesome custom ROM. I am very confused with 3 of the ROMS on here.

1.Crash ROM

2.Echoe ROM

3.X-Note ROM

They all sound sweet and highly customizable which is what I am looking for. I am looking for a ROM that makes my phone even more beast-mode

as well as increase my battery's lifetime and an overall performance upgrade.

Beast-Mode :- Even more powerful and can handle anything you can throw at it.

Note 1: If anyone could provide more information about rooting and installing a custom recovery that would be great because I am still too confused with the KNOX and all the weird stuff on this phone.

Note 2: Please don't ruin my fun by asking me to search for other posts. Had I found what I was looking for I wouldn't have wasted my time typing this.

I feel just like the OP, I have spent a long time reading and googling by now, and it is still not clear to me how to go about rooting and flashing custom Roms, and this is having a lot of experience rooting and flashing Roms with Odin during the past 4, 5 years or more since I had the Galaxy S.

There are a lot of threads and posts, as usual, and an up2date summary is really needed in the Note 3 subforum.

This isn't about lazyness, I love modifying my devices and I am happy to spend a full weekend reading, googling and figuring it out, but with this device right now, especially with the Knox issue, it is going to take much more than 2 days to get this right and well some people do have real life to deal with, too.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultramag69:
1. You root you will trip Knox... Period...

2. CF-Autoroot is easiest - ODIN Flash. Make sure it is the latest and supports Kitkat

3. Install CWM or TWRP. I prefer CWM because that's what I'm used to. CWM 4.0.4.7 for Kitkat - ODIN Flash.

4. Copy rom file to sd card - external preferably, go to recovery and flash. It will take a little while to reboot for 1st boot bu shouldn't be more than around 10 minutes...

I like Androidnow, older rom but battery life is AWESOME... You can also flash the OTA updates for theming options to be included in settings....

While connected to Wifi, I noticed that there was the tower with a circle on the right and a tower without a circle next to the bars.

I have also been connected to Wifi and seen an E above the bars. Does this mean there is also EDGE available? However I don;t get this all the time even when I know EDGE is available.

Hi,

I'm running AndroidUser00110001's awesome modified stock KK ROM, and nothing happens when I long-press my Bluetooth headset's button. Is there a way to get voice dialing to work with that ROM?

Thanks
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cron912:
Since you linked AndroidUser00110001's thread, that means you have a D800, correct? That ROM is using the D802 4.4.2 stock as base, and since the D802 doesn't have Bluetooth voice dialing, I would say it probably isn't possible. I haven't tried that ROM myself, but I tried to get Bluetooth voice dialing working on several of the D802 4.2.2 based ROMs for the D800, and couldn't get it to work on any of them.

To get it working, you'll probably have to go back to a D800 based ROM, like garyd9's here.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zoide_:
I like the lack of bloat in AndroidUser00110001's D802-based ROM, so I'll probably stick with that. Thanks to you though, I know understand that the D802-based ROMs don't have voice dialing. This will help me direct my questions better.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Akasa Fox:
Alright, first off, i've been trying to fix my device for a few days, and scouring the internet; i've been completely unable to fix this issue

After installing an AOSP rom, I accidentally screwed with my Sim settings. My LTE and MMS are both broken on all roms that I have tried, and I can't for the life of me get them fixed. LTE sometimes works when I force LTE only, but then I can't make calls or send SMS.

(Just a quick rundown to highlight the main points)

☻LTE won't work unless I force LTE only. (AOSP)

☻MMS won't send, unless i'm on the stock ROM (I've used GOSMS, Hangouts, and Stock)

I feel like I have literally tried everything. Different recoverys, different root methods, different basebands, I've reflashed the APN, and even paid a visit to my friend Murry at Sprint; still no fix. My ESN is still good, along with my MEID. Any help would be greatly appreciated; this has been giving me hell for the past few days.
