[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheDj408:
Its very good for gaming no lags whatsoever and sound quality is good on stock too... didint try cm and camera is decent focuses well
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] padhu1989:
Go for nexus 5....
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petraru1:
He said that his girlfriend doesn't like the nexus 5, but some people recomend the phone, maybe its reverse psihology :))

The phone is pretty good, most high end games run smooth, i didn't test gta san andreas, but real racing 3, asphalt 8, dead trigger 2 run good, no frame drops. But if she wants a phone for gaming should go for higher priced phones, by the way, san andreas stutter on note 3 and s4, so... :)

The camera is pretty decent and the auto focus when you are recording is working good. Pictures are sometimes better than s4 mini with 8 mp. The front camera is ok, and the audio is pretty impresive, if you have quality headphones the sound is amazing.

I use the phone with the stock rom, but it is a matter of taste, i feel that the stock rom is better optimized and its more smooth, but that is just my opinion, you have ROMs and kernels to chose.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robert-:
If I could go for something more expansive,I would go for Sony Z1 Compact.

But right now,that's all I can get.

I saw this phone lags on Gta . well,it's just a game,it is ok

The problem is,I can't understand something: This huawei have the same gpu as Moto G but a dual-core krait 200. Why the Huawei can play at almost max with like 20-25fps and Moto G lags on low?

I can't decide what to do..I really want to buy something..another opinions?

I'm in London right now and I have something like 180-200 £ ,I think this is the best option..
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petraru1:
The only game i didn't test was gta san andreas, i have a friend with a stock s4 (adreno 320) and gta is lagging on med settings, if you search san andreas on note 3 you will see it lags even on adreno 330. My old samsung galaxy express with adreno 305 and 1.2 dual core was runing gta on max settings pretty decent, but touchwizz was horibble on day to day usage. I am a casual gamer, the most apps i use are mail, chrome, quick office, camera, ssh, autocad 360 etc. but this apps are working with no lag, the experience on this phone in general is buttery smooth so maybe some apps are not optimized properly
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ATRIXXIRTA:
You can't beat this phone for the price.

Just don't set your expectations to that of the Nexus 5.

It's not really fair to compare the 2, since they are in COMPLETELY different price brackets.

This Moto G does everything well, except EXTREME multi-tasking, and picture taking.

The camera is decent, dont get me wrong, but if photos are important to you, I would look elsewhere.

What do you want?

- A clean fast near stock Android experience, but with a mediocre camera? - Get the Moto G

- Or a decent mid-ranger with good picture quality? Look at a mid-range Nokia
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robert-:
She dosen't like Windows Phone at all,that's the problem.

I guess I'll go for Moto G..I mean,camera is good enough to do photos for facebook,instagram ?

The front camera is ok,right? I saw the front records at 720p,right?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ATRIXXIRTA:
Yap,

front is 720p.

The quality is decent as long as your in good lighting.

Hello

I was wondering if the XDA Exec has a Session Initiation Protocol stack, and if msn mesenger uses the SIP stack?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] colonel:
no, but its doesn't need one. just run a SIP program. There are industrial clients like Persona OnePhone or paid clients like SJphone.

MSN messenger doesn't use SIP.

anyway skype is better ;->

[HTC One S] ascot17:
I am about to part with my One S after two years and intend to return it to a more-or-less stock ROM before selling it.

After flashing several stock-ish ROMS and booting to system, I found that they all produce the following message in red when running Setup:

This is a test device. Tell HTC is automatically enabled so that HTC can collect critical information about the device during testing. It is not possible to turn this feature off on this phone

This message would be potentially of concern to any new owner of the phone, so I have done a little research to find out what causes it and how to remove it. I am sharing my findings here in case they may be of use to anyone else selling their One S after their 24-month contract finishes.

Cause

The warning is generated by an app called Udove when it counters an S-OFF phone during setup - it assumes that, as the security is missing, the device must be a test device. (It isn't)!

Solution

Return to S-ON or remove the Udove app. (This needs to be removed from the ROM.zip as a factory reset would restore the apk if it is simply deleted).

Removing Udove

1. I started with a Stock, rooted ROM (Ville_Europe_3.16.401.8_OTA_UPDATE_Stock_Rooted_ODEX_FULL.zip) from here

2. Unzip the rom (I used 7-Zip)

3. Navigate to the /system/app/ folder and delete Udove.apk and Udove.odex

4. Rezip the ROM

5. Sign the zip (if required)

6. Flash the new ROM - the 'Tell HTC' page is now gone from setup.
[HTC One S] Darvadouille:
Might be usefull, thanks for that!!!

Just wandering why all the devs don't do it by default when they build their Rom? Is there any risk/issue that can explain nobody's doing it?!
[HTC One S] LS.xD:
Probably no one faces the problem because S-OFF and using a non modified stock rom is not a common combination. Also if someone wants to sell the phone as stock, he/she will think about getting the phone S-ON again before selling it.
[HTC One S] ascot17:
Yes, I think the devs ARE doing it by default - I have been using custom ROMs for the last 2 years on this device and have never encountered it before. It was only when I went back to a rooted stock ROM that I came across the issue.

I could go back to completely stock, but that seems a bit pointless after all the work I put in to get the phone to where it is. If a new owner is not interested in rooting/custom recovery/S-OFF etc, they will never know it is there. If they are interested, then the work is already done.
[HTC One S] rc420head:
There's also custom hboot to remove the warning.

Sent from my One using Xparent Red Tapatalk 2
[HTC One S] ascot17:
This is not the same warning. A custom HBOOT removes the warning on the boot screen.

The warning referred to in the OP occurs during Setup, not on the boot screen.
[HTC One S] NightHeron:
Hey dude,could you upload your ROM after all the steps to flash it in our S-off machine? Thanks in advance, Merry Christmas

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Evocm7:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ragendem:
I would like to put KitKat on my phone and I have not done the OTA 4.3 update, so my baseband has not been updated. Whenever I try to figure out how to put KitKat on my phone, I find threads that say something like the following.

Don't update to 4.3 or you'll never get a custom boot image

OK, we figured out how to root 4.3, but you still shouldn't do it

All KITKAT roms are based on AOSP or their derivitives, which you need to update to 4.3 to get

But don't update to 4.3 because it isn't worth it, I mean, the camera sucks on AOSP

Here is a list of 25 KITKAT roms, each more awesome than the last!

Here is a 4.3 update without the baseband, if you haven't updated, use this, it is the best of both worlds

We wont be updating the above rom, because we are so excited about these KITKAT roms!

Hey I just updated to AOSP (CM, AOKP, etc) KITKAT and it is lame, how do I get TW back?

Does that sound about right? If I want KITKAT I should just stop wanting KITKAT and that will solve all my problems?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BattsNotIncld:
If you take the 4.3 update you will be stuck on 4.3 (or until Verizon decides to upgrade). It can be rooted and now you can flash other 4.3 ROMs with safestrap, but you will never be able to run a custom recovery/kernel. So even if you wanted to try AOSP you wouldn't be able to. I don't know who told you you have to upgrade to 4.3 to try AOSP but that is completely off base, in fact it's the complete opposite!

What are you currently running? Is your bootloader unlocked? If you are curious about AOSP I would definitely give it a try. In my experience TW ROMS tend to be more stable and have every bit of hardware working (camera, bluetooth, etc). AOSP ROMS are quicker, smoother, have newer features and are more easily customized. It's really a matter of preference.

If you really want to try KK and be on the bleeding edge you should. Kit Kat ROMs run very well on this phone. If something like a 100% working camera or bluetooth is extremely important to you I would stay on TW. However, devs are constantly working on the ROMs and working out these kinks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ragendem:
OK, thanks for the info.

How do I know which baseband a rom is for? I found the TouchWiz 4.3 Download List. Does that basically mean that, if it isn't on that list, it is probably for the old baseband?

I tried flashing some Gummy nightlies and Carbon - both failed. On TWRP, the only message I get is "install failed"

I know troubleshooting that is a different thread, but I'm not sure where to start to figure it out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Update your recovery.

That thread is what will work on the Verizon 4.3 update. You're fine flashing anything because you never took it, just follow the directions in each rom thread. You could flash those roms as well.
[Asus Transformer TF701] YayYouFixedIt:
APP FOR 4.3+ ONLY

I put together this app to easily switch between 3 resolution modes. Optionally hit the backup button to copy to /sdcard/tmp

For each mode it just runs a script like this.

#!/system/bin/sh

wm size 1920x1200

wm density 240

# mounting system as rw

mount -o remount,rw /system

export DENSITY=`cat /system/build.prop|grep ro.sf.lcd_density`

sed -i s/$DENSITY/ro.sf.lcd_density=240/g /system/build.prop

mount -o remount,ro /system

its replaces the line in the build.prop so things like the keyboard scale properly. Let me know if it doesnt work. Just hit the reboot button after you change it. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

[Asus Transformer TF701] AngryDinosaur:
if you are not on 4.3 this will not work for you i believe.

the wm command is specifically for 4.3+. forgot what 4.1 uses i think its am command

---------- Post added at 10:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:34 PM ----------

dpi doesnt change for 1280x720? swiftkey doest scale correctly on 720p.

---------- Post added at 10:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:35 PM ----------

ya DPI doesnt change, it stays at 240, which will be look big for 1600P or too small for 720P
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
I'm pretty sure wm ignores the build.prop DPI value. It does on mine anyway. It saves its setting to dB in /data/data somewhere. com.android.preferences/ inside that I think.
[Asus Transformer TF701] AngryDinosaur:
Probably I'm noob to everything :]
[Asus Transformer TF701] YayYouFixedIt:
im running cm11 4.4.2 though atm.

It might be that its targeting 4.4.2.

For me that build.prop value has to be changed. Or something else does.

There might be a problem with that apk...ill look at it again.

ill put the source up so you can fix it up and feel free to include it in your rom as a bells and whistles option haha
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
OK it might be that certain apks use the build.prop to calculate the screen size? Let me look at the source.

Try locking the DPI to 160 once the user gets down to 1280. The way I calculate the DPI is take the length of the screen and divide by 8.

1280 is 160

1600 is 200

1920 is 240

2560 is 320

Etc ;)
[Asus Transformer TF701] YayYouFixedIt:
https://github.com/YayYouFixedIt/resui
[Asus Transformer TF701] AngryDinosaur:
can u include a reset script in the app to reset everything to stock settings, and revert build prop line.

Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF701] YayYouFixedIt:
​

OK I added backup and restore to the app. Seems to be working.

Backup does this:

#!/system/bin/sh

mkdir -p /sdcard/tmp

cp -f /system/build.prop /sdcard/tmp

Restore does this:

#!/system/bin/sh

wm size 2560x1600

wm density 320

mount -o remount,rw /system

cp -f /sdcard/tmp/build.prop /system/

mount -o remount,ro /system

Let me know if that's not correct
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
That's great! I think restore should do this:

wm size reset

wm density reset

;)
[Asus Transformer TF701] Motawa88:
so dies it work with cm 11 or the only custom rom on the forum?
[Asus Transformer TF701] YayYouFixedIt:
I'm using cm11. It works well. I haven't used it with cromi but it look like it should work fine. I'm using thumb keyboard and it scales fine. The game shadowrun actually looks bigger at the lower resolution. More playable. Characters were too small.

I'm using it with Cromi-X 6.1 with no issues.
[Asus Transformer TF701] Motawa88:
Is it possible with the tf700 too`? I want to change the resolution to 1.366 x 768 for some experiments
[Asus Transformer TF701] YayYouFixedIt:
On the nexus 7 2012 I have, the wm command works. You can just modify the app to what you need. What. Itll do if you try to set it to 2560*1600 320 I don't know. If you want to modify the app you just need to:

1. Add a script to the raw folder like the others

2. Add a button to the xml layout

3. Set the button to launch the script it in the apps main activity.
[HTC Rezound] cntryby429:
So I'm troubleshooting an issue I'm having with a nonbooting Rezound. Long story short, the battery ran down while in recovery (Philz Touch) and now it won't boot into ROM, bootloader, or recovery. I can't get the charging light to come on for more than a few medium flashes and one long flash when plugged in (wall, usb, 24+ hours). I can't even get it recognized on usb with the battery pulled and the "adb devices" command. I plug it in and I hear the usb connection sound but my computer shows an error for ADR6425lwv in device manager and tells me the driver isn't installed/needed which I suspect is the problem.

I recently uninstalled all things HTC to S-off my new One M8 (per firewater instructions) and now that I'm having these problems with drivers I want to reinstall HTC Sync for the drivers. However, I see that the Rezound is conspicuously missing from the list of supported devices on the HTC Sync website. Does anyone have an older installer or know of another way to ensure I actually have the necessary drivers for the Rezound? Win7 x64. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the response. I get the short blinks followed by one long one just like this which I assume tells me my phone is ready to receive adb commands. However, as I said earlier, adb returns nothing with the "adb devices" command. Therefore I can't send reboot or flash commands. It's looking more and more like a basic driver issue to me. I just can't find the driver and it looks like HTC sync doesn't contain it anymore. Could someone at least give me the driver version from device manager to help me with Google search terms?

Hey nice find although it turns out I didn't need it. I had an Unbuntu Live CD booted on my laptop for a completely unrelated project and all of the sudden my phone booted up.

When I was done with Unbuntu, I rebooted into Windows, plugged the phone in and bingo, it found/installed the drivers. I can explain neither my initial problem nor the random unprompted solution.

Strange situation. Tmobile Note 3 upgraded to KitKat, never rooted. After update, strange things occurring in system. Figured the update botched things up so I decided, Knox be damned I'm rooting this thing and starting fresh on a new rom.

Really wish to avoid buying another card unless I have to. I've had all 3 Notes and they all have killed an sd card at least once. I almost think it's Sammy's fault.
