I would appreciate if somebody could tell me if the kitkat update will fix two common problems in lg g2:

1. Autoswitching from wifi to data connection not working most of the time.

2. Autoanswering when the phone is brought near the ear not working most of the time.

I have seen in different forums that these two problems are common to many lg g2 users.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BreakingVZW:
I'm still on stock 4.2.2 and haven't had either of those issues occur on my device (D800). I can't speak on the fix as my device is operating nominally. The only issue I've had with kitkat is a Bluetooth battery drain. That's why I went back to 4.2.2

im on KK d802, and i dont use auto answer, but switching wifi-3g/4g works ok. try to reinstall kk
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bachera:
using an battery saving settings\apps? they might interfere with the switch of network mode.

same counts for the pickup of phone.

You may try calibrate the gyro, maybe its off.

other reasons could be debloating\ system changes\ restoring app data as they can influence wakeup and responsiveness adversibly.

usuably factory reset can fix things as things go back to full stock settings.

its pretty much guesswork.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zekurosu:
has the bluetooth battery drain been fixed?

thats the main reason i reverted back to 4.2.2 as well
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BreakingVZW:
Nope. Bluetooth still uses 15-18% battery. Extremely high wake time.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iJo09:
Hi all! :)

I want to ask if it's worth to use a CyanogenMod (or any other AOSP-based) ROM on the i9505.

I know that with any non-tw ROM I will lose features like Air View, Gestures, Sammy's Camera, WatchON IR communications etc. So I'm wondering if there are alternatives to these things, using the proper HW (eg. not like the simple proximity sensor)..

Thank you all in advance, for any answer :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtwrk:
Very worth, of course the regret is about camera, but I don't use it often, so it's ok to me,

In one word, YES!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iJo09:
OK :)

Can you explain me why? What are the pros of CM on the S4?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtwrk:
More and easier personification.

And smoothness is way better above Sammy.

You should have tried it yourself.

As I said, the only regret is camera. But it isn't bad anyway
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] vprasinos:
What browser do you use? I am trying to find the a browser that has the following features:

1. Smoothness. Must have hardware acceleration enabled. I find that UC Browser HD is good in this section.

2. Has good HTML5 support (tested from html5test.com). I find Dolphin has the best.

3. Has fast javascript.

4. Supports gestures.

5. Supports proper fonts as set by site. For example UC Browser uses system fonts and it sucks..

6. Supports flash.

From my findings so far with Exynos (P600):

UC Browser is the smoothest because of hardware acceleration, has gestures, has flash, html5 support is good but not good at rendering fonts.

Dolphin with jetpack is close in smoothness but swiping up and down is too fast and the page goes to its top or bottom by a slight touch. Has the best html5 support and the gestures are not so great as UC.

Chrome beta is a bit behind in smoothness, great html5 score but lacks in gestures and no flash. I don't even discuss Chrome (plain), it is very jerky.

Firefox is a big dissapointment. I think however that Note 3 is great with firefox. I need some opinions from the Note 10.1 2014 Snapdragon users for Firefox (P601, P605).

Maxthon sucks bigtime. Your opinions please and if there is a dev that can suggest a speedup for a browser is welcome.

PS: I use a SM-P600 and have CleanRom and Bindroid kernel.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] fantasmanegro:
Dolphin with JetPack is a very good combination for html5 support but without jetpack is far from Opera Browser...

i have tested a lot of web browsers and the best browsers i found were Opera Browser, Boat Browser, and UC Browser (this one always freezes with no reason)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] hpblze:
Opera, for overall smoothness. I use Outlook. Com to check my emails and Opera does the best rendering for that site too. Only gripe is the tiny fonts.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] mustafa3891:
Opera the best for me .
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] ProFresh4:

You guys might wanna try Habit Browser (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.ddo.pigsty.HabitBrowser). It is fast&smooth and extremly customizable. Probably the most feature packed browser in existance.

It takes some time to set it up and the menus might overwhelm at first but once you're done its amazing.

UC might become my primary browser in the future, but there are some issues (like font size) that need to be worked out first.

I am using different browser. They are: Chrome, Firefox, Stock Browser and Skyfire Web Browser.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Medy89:
You got the right man here.... uc browser ftw dude xD..... i contacted the developers several times and they listened and added my features :D .... like the scrolling button which appears when you scroll very hard :D ... that comes from me telling them haha xD im their nr 1 tester xD.... I tested like almost every browser .... some come close but fail at smth....

And dude I advise you dont upgrade to kitkat... because you will have to stick with dolphin which freaking sucks your battery dry by playing flash.... 10 percent in 1 minute no lies happened to me.... if you have trouble with font size try ...exposed module "app settings" its awesome...you can even enable fullscreen mode which hides the status bar.... i am all about that stuff.... if you have more questions contact me... ill give you some advise.... those previous comments really have no clue what browsers to use :D ...... uc is the best ... i kinda would have wished for a decent firefox browser... but that thing is just so bad...... Uc browser dude there is nothing better... i even use an older version of it on my note 2 :D .... i wanted a browser which comes close to firefox on desktop.... uc is the choice.... other browsers have issues that casual user dont notice but there are there.... these ppl will recommend you any kind of random browser :D .... uc nails it for a great UI ... adblock and widget buttons... and much more.... it comes closer to perfection every update :D ... try contact the devs for the font issue..... it doesnt bother me ... so....

There is no point just saying which browser someone uses without mentioning their model. The P600 is exynos which behaves differently than the P601/P605. Please state your browser along with your model as smoothness is subjective to the processor.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramazor:
I'm coming from Android 2.1. and I have followed this guide. Unfortunately, my phone is just rebooting all the time (it doesn't get to homescreen; it's not even a bootloop because it's just showing Samsung Galaxy S splash logo all the time). I think it's caused by not updating my bootloader first. So I'm a bit stuck over here. I can't access my phone's download mode via USB (adb doesn't recognize it, even though drivers are installed) or any key combo (I couldn't access it via key combo even before flashing).

Is there any way to fix this problem? Thanks.

(And yeah, I know it's my fault I haven't red the sticky... I just google for a guide since I was in a rush. Sorry for the beginners mistake!)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
2.1 did not come with combo key functions so you need to flash the combo key fix, to update it, which means you need to use a USB JIG first to get download mode.

when using USB JIG, you don't need to flash combo key fix but just flash the gingerbread ROM and it will be resolved, you can follow	[Tutorial] How to Unbrick, Flash, Downgrade, Root, Update i9000 from Froyo to Kit Kat

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramazor:
Thanks. I am just hoping that jig will work because I have a friend breathing at my neck because he did not have guts to do rooting/flashing himself. I'll keep you noted... and thanks for the link once again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
Jig will work as its i9000 Downgrade to Eclair 2.1 JM1 Initial Stock ROM, without Combo key functions, use KIES or ADB or JIG for upgrades, Included flash-able FIX for Combo Keys. Look in [Toolkit][A.I.O Rescue & Recovery] My Android Collection for combo key fix and gingerbread bootloader.

But since you flash a gingerbread kernel, KIES will not recognize it

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramazor:
Since I have just flashed PDA (kernel), is there a stock kernel for Eclair? I wish to recover the previous state without rooting the device because a custom is giving me too much attitude...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
JM1 ( eclair 2.1) is the first release by Samsung i9000 (hence NO recovery or download modes) , if you want kernel for this you need to try and download that ROM and extract the kernel from it, which may not be possible as JM1 is difficult to get you can search for it though.

the alternative would be JM2 or JM3, download links are in	[Tutorial] How to Unbrick, Flash, Downgrade, Root, Update i9000 from Froyo to Kit Kat, look under unbricking

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Playb3yond:

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RikRong:
Hmm, try going into device manager and uninstalling the drivers that are there and plug the phone back in and try to get it to auto install. If you use fastboot and recovery much, you also need to boot into each one of those and plug the phone into the computer so the appropriate driver will install for each of those.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Playb3yond:
Actually, one of the USB ports seemed to have installed the drivers successfully.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Playb3yond:
I found what the problem. The networking interface has to do with tethering correct? Any have any idea what could be causing this? I'm using the latest Motorola drivers now
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RikRong:
That probably won't install until you put it into tethering mode. However, it shouldn't affect anything as far as using fastboot or having your computer detect the phone.
[General Questions and Answers] totalimpact:
I have a SGS4 and am trying to figure out the easiest/best way to stream or control music on a remote amplifier via wifi. I have a solution now, but wonder if there is something better - I have a number of resources available:

1. Android tablet and phone

2. Windows laptop

3. blank raspberry pi (this will be my eventual route, but need something live and running with less than 1 hours effort - xbmc =fiddling)

4. iphone

Requirements:

1. be mobile and in control - walk anywhere around house/yard and manipulate audio played on house speakers

2. stream online music preferably from grooveshark, or other options: pandora/spotify ... typically these have everything i have in my local collection +more.

Currently I have 2 methods that are so/so:

1. Login to grooveshark on my pc, Q up a playlist, and hit the Broadcast on the grooveshark page

2. Open the Broadcast link on my tablet and subscribe to the broadcast to play, plug tablet in to amplifier

3. go to phone and open Grooveshark Remote app (free or $2) to add songs (play now or play next in Q), manage Qs and playlists, volume.

4. Go to pc and open gremote.com in *Chrome* to authorize phone.

That actually works quite well, I like Grooveshark, and its ios/droid safe, and music keeps playing even if droid dies or gets a phone call... but sometimes cant find the song I want and jump to another media player.

Method 2:

1. Pandora on my tablet plugged in to amp

2. Use Tablet Remote app to control, this allows me pause, skip songs, and adjust volume

This is a weak solution - no song searching or playlist selecting, roughly it makes noise come out the speakers in a pinch.

Seen:

Soundseeder - nice but only supports basic http audio or local content, no groove/spot/pandora

Allcast - limited to local media on phone or nas

Subsonic - not sure what this is, still trying to wrap my head around it, seems like based on music I own only

Other ideas???

1. Open the Drawer.

2. Place Manila Folder in the Drawer.

3. Close the Drawer.

Now it isn't always this easy. If there is securoty in place you will probably need a key or combination to unlock the Drawer before you can open it.

Also, these instructions assume that you have enough space in the Drawer for the Manila Folder and that you don't need to install any "Hanging Device" as it is already installed if needed.

Two things don't make sense to me:

What is the benefit of having a backup that doesn't include my PIM data? Also, even if I could see the point I don't know how to do it. The moment I started installing my "essentials" was the moment that ActiveSync synced all of my PIM data.

Why backup before tweaking the registry? Wouldn't you want these included in the backup so that you only have to do them once?
