Updated the FAQ with an edit to Q13. As pointed out by [MENTION=4987085]xunholyx[/MENTION], the S-Off needed updating to the SunShine thread rather than the old thread.

As always, if you have any potential additions to be added let me know by either posting here or sending me a PM.

Also, be sure to post here ONLY if you have an addition to the FAQ. Anything else will either be deleted or moved to a relevant location, dependant on what's deemed necessary.

Any questions should be asked in the Q&A forum or in the M8 Help Thread.

Cheers :)

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrme01:
Does anyone ever answer queries in this forum or do they just look at them? I've posted 3 times and I find it highly unlikely that I'm not the only one with the issues I posted about.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Unlikely yes. But did you consider the fact that is possible that the folks (like myself) that looked at your post didn't know the solution? We can respond to your post that we don't know the answer, but that doesn't' really add any value.

The notion that nobody here answers any questions is ridiculous, and its also insulting to those that spend countless hours helping others. If you look at other threads, you will see plenty of answers. Also, your last question was just asked 2 hours ago. So maybe an answer is still forthcoming.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrme01:
I didn't insinuate that no one gets answered, I noticed that the more technical the question (my post about not being able to remove stock apps), the more likely that someone will know the answer as it's a more common issue. However, there's an issue inside the system if either the lockscreen isn't secure or I'm unable to switch keyboard that someone must have either A) some knowledge on how that particular thing works or B) someone else has posted about it and been answered, but I don't know what to search for.

I apologise for being rash in my previous comment, but not being secure or using the stock keyboard is somewhat annoying. This being the number 1 usergroup for these issues, it's easy to see why when questions like these go unanswered, it becomes annoying.

I reflashed to stock after every thing I tried bar factory resetting my phone to get over my loudspeaker issues. Some ROM developer out there must have intimate knowledge of how Android handles audio routing.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BAWTH:
I followed and used this thread ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1963790 ) to root my phone, and i have no troubles following the steps. I searched around the thread and found out that i can unroot my phone with the SuperSU app, so i went into the app and selected the unroot button. To my knowledge it worked, since when i went into my Root Check app it said that there wasn't any root found. But here is my problem, when i go into my phone settings and select the stock update for my phone it gives me a message of "Your device has been modified. Software updates are not available", so am I missing something? Is there another step i must do to be able to update my phone from 4.1.2. My phone is the Galaxy S3 SGH-I747M.

Your guess is as good as mine what they will do with the information... my guess would be to provide the VZW store folks another avenue to see if the device has been tampered with. Perhaps it could be transmitted also. Not worth my time digging further - removed.

[Xperia Z1 General] bodson66:
So according to DXO mark the Z2 is the best camera phone beating out the Nokia Pureview 40MP camera. I found this a little odd since it has the same hardware as the Z1. So is it software that has been improved or are there some hardware tweaks as well. Mind you it was tied with nokia on still but beat it out due to 4K recording. I have been able to get some impressive result if I import large size PNG files into Photoshop and use that to process some of my images.

My biggest complaint is the noise in the Z1's pictures. I most often use Topaz Denoise for my DSLR work and decided to use it on a couple pics from my Z1. The result was excellent.

Here is an example, I will continue to test the firmware and see if the new update will improve it.

I'll post the link for those interested

For GPS information you should check out www.gpspassion.com for their reviews and forums.

For speed camera databases that are formatted for several popular navigation programs including TomTom look at www.pocketgpsworld.com but note that there is a (modest) charge to download.

If you have not yet settled on TomTom then do consider the alternatives that you will find referenced at gpspassion.

I have the iBlue GPS receiver from semsons.com. I've also had the Solarious receiver from them and I prefer the iBlue....it has an auto-off feature when there is no Bluetooth connection. It's also waaay small. The reception seems to be great too....none of these devices are Hollywood where you get an instant fix the second you turn it on but this is pretty quick and has stayed locked in just fine for me.

It does appear you're on a later version of CM Nightlies. You could possibly attempt to download that to see if that works, or even flash another ROM to see if that works. (If you do go about flashing another ROM, please remember to wipe your device)

Another suggestion which will more than likely work is to flash a stock S3 ROM that works for your define and get the APN settings. (Make sure you have confirmed data is working on the stock ROM flash please) I'd then suggest comparing the stock APN settings with the custom AOSP ROM you flashed.

That one thing would be the touch latency/response time, at 46ms. This is astounding compared to the Note 3's 67ms and the iPhone 5s' 75ms.

If the S5 can come close, I'd be extremely surprised.

Touch latency makes a huge deal for the feel of a device, so it's great that HTC pulled this off!

What do you guys think of this?

Exactly. Touch latency is one big thing that keeps me on iOS. It makes the entire user experience SO much smoother, and it's even more noticeable when typing or navigating quickly.

I wonder if it's the same on the GPE though? That's my model of choice, but if it'll have more latency I wouldn't want to get one.
