[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sherlockj4:
Hello everyone i recently switched from an iPhone 4s to the Galaxy s5. So far I am loving the experience it just has one drawback so far. My music app seems to be lagging all over the place. It does not quickly respond to the headphone command buttons - skipping and lagging songs. I currently have my music on a MicroSD Card (64GB Sandisk Ultra). I have read that I should reformat my card to FAT32 instead of the stock system.

I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts or fixes for this. Thank you guys

I have a Galaxy S5 on Verizon - 64GB MicroSD Sandisk Ultra Card.

The lag has happened with multiple apps - stock player - google play - rocket player.

Any help would really be appreciated.

Thank you!

First of all, i'm very thankful for being new member of this forum :) co'z there's a lot here of an elite members :D

now, my first thread is for asking your help :victory:

Sir/Ma'am, i need your help regarding my clone/copy s4 vietnam i9500 !

If there's a solution to update it into Kitkat firmware.

co'z in the steps of updating, it needs "download mode" that the clone/copy s4 doesn't, instead it shows "Factory Mode"

I really appreciate a little comments or help. Thanks in Advanced to all.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KratosTheSpartan1990:
I believe that factory mode is the same as download mode, connect it to ODIN and see if the phone is detected.

---------- Post added at 07:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:21 PM ----------

If it is detected continue as normal, if not, try and contact the person you bought the phone from, if possible and ask them about this issue.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] justmpm:
You will really need to check around for which device you really have and then use the tools/ROMs for that device. If it is a cloned device, then you probably can't use ODIN or install any Samsung firmware.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vaibhav Chauhan:
you should go for mtk flash tool and flash the rom with that if available

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] slink722:
For the transparency of statusbar
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] cities516:
Will the theme stop working if I did not flash the android.policy.jar but just put the .apk into /system/app?

I don't actually need the transparent status bar.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] slink722:
Nope as long as u download the correct theme of ur rom. But if u didnt flash the android.policy.jar, u wont have the transparency of statusbar. But dont worry, i get the android.policy.jar of existenz and NXA. Just choose the theme for ur rom thats why i made 2 versions. One for existenz and one for NXA
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abhaykelkar:
I dont know what happened but when I flashed this theme again on my xperia s existenz 2.05, its not appearing in select themes.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bryanu:
Not sure, I've had two S5's now and neither did this.

It's possible some random setting that carried over for most of us etc.

I know the first S5 when it restored my old phone settings the screen timeout was set for 45 seconds for example, well that's not a valid option so it made the menu look funky lol. The second one it didn't do that as I had changed to 30 seconds before exchanging again.

I imagine something similar, some setting carried over to disable the sound and we just dunno which/where.

I did a lot of traveling yesterday and bounced on and off 3G and 4G and no data many times, no sounds.

Maybe it's the roaming guards too glitching? I do disable those too.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] durandetto:
Thought I disabled the roaming guard but will check again. It wouldn't bother me as much if it wasn't so damn loud.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] bowshermatthew:
I've had my Optimus G rooted for a while now, and I had recently updated to Cyanogenmod 11 M3 and after a few weeks of good use, my phone crashed for no reason. There was a green screen that said Kernel Crash, demigod fail or something and some other stuff. Told me to press up to do this, down to do this, power to do this…. Anyways the phone wouldn't boot up after that. It was stuck on the LG logo. I could only get it into fast boot and download mode but from fast boot there was no way to get to recovery or regular boot. I found the TeenyBins post and tried to fix it using both of the .bins they had but at 85% the phone tried to boot up and was stuck on the LG logo again. Then I found the stock .bins and tried to flash them over, yet I got the same result. I've tried everything I can think to do, if anyone has any suggestions, please please help.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] adfurgerson:
Teenybins don't have an OS. Did you try to get into recovery after flashing them? Doing a hard reset after stock bins may get it to boot, but internal storage will be wiped. For future reference in the demigod screen the buttons are backwards.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] bowshermatthew:
After flashing Teenybin I can boot into fast boot, but from there when I select recovery it goes back to the logo. Same thing happens if I select the other options. It's the google logo, not the LG logo, because the Teenybin I most recently tried was the alternate file
[AT&T LG Optimus G] jimbo77:
If you are already in fastboot, download any recovery (CWM or TWRP) extract it, rename it to recovery.img from the zip and then go to the folder where you have adb and fastboot bins and type:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

from there you'll be able to access recovery.

Thank you for the help, I was going to try that last night after reading your post but I took it to the AT&T store and they said they would replace it for free (warranty). I appreciate the quick response time.

Hi there, I have been a member for a while now but never posted before!

I have followed many of the hints, tips and suggestions on this forum and have had a great time with my O2 XDA mini s but now find myself needing more help !

In fixing my mini s stylus issue I voided the warranty. A couple of weeks ago a colleague managed to knock a screwdriver into the empty battery compartment. I was swapping the sim card but got called away. The screwdriver pierced the sticker giving the IMEI number and damaged the electrical component under it. The component is labelled 3R3.

After calming down and restarting the mini s, all was ok apart from the backlight which would not work at all. I took my phone to a local phone repair shop who had it for a week then said they could not fix it as it needs a new mainboard - typical !

I have spoken with O2 who will charge me £17.50 to send my phone off to a company called A Novo who (I was told) will then send it back unrepaired as the warranty is voided. Totally pointless.

Does anyone know where I might be able to get my mini s repaired or has anyone got a broken mini s with a good mainboard they are willing to sell me ?

thanks
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Lord Buckingham:
If you send it to Anovo they can quote you for a non warranty repair, this way you will know whether its worth while paying for the repair. BTW Anove are based in Norwich. I believe there is a link form the o2 xda web site that has a contact number.

Hope that helps

Apex laptops do not use parts from broken pda's. They come direct from factory. I bought a new XDA II case and it is perfect!

i would highly recomend them.

they are not overpriced either. they say if you find a price cheaper elsewhere they will beat that!

Re: Apex laptop

Ok, then why do they have Qtek 2020 boards listed - if they came direct from HTC they would have no reseller rom flashed to them. Trust me, I know. They alos charge £295 for this board! MORE THAN A COMPLETE DEVICE.

They also list the housing at £25 and the front bezel at £30, battery cover at £15 and aeriel cover at £15 = £85.

I sell the complete housings on ebay for the himalayas / alpine for £25....and they are the entire housing inc the battery cover!

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130015502288

So you don't think that much of a massive markup is overpricing? £85 from them or £25 from me. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm............

So, I state again, they are OVERPRICED.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] mr_Ray:
Re: Apex Laptops

LMAO!

Obviously making no comment about a specific company here, but as a general statment...

Should a person, say, a Service Mananger, for a company visit a forum, not disclose that they work for said company, while making comments about them, you would think "hey, that's immoral". You could well be right.

Should that person LIE about the company, say for example, making a false claim that they are a customer of said company and give glowing FALSE praise, you'd probably be inclined to wonder about just what kind of a business it is. You'd be right to think that. That hypothetical situation would be incredibly shady, outright immoral, and quite possibly an illegal business practise.

A little flag should also be waving in your head saying "hey why does this hypothetical person need to pretend to be a satisfied customer? surely if they are an honest and trustworthy company they will have actual satisfied customers, and have no need to lie and decieve."

Shold said manager at the company in one thread be calling for people to send them broken phone parts for use as spare parts, yet in another vigourously (while lying and pretending to be a customer!!!) deny that they use parts from broken phones... you'd just be thinking "WTF! Why aren't these people being invesigated by the local coppers?" That'd be a fair question.

In this hypothetical situation, I would advise people to seek the advice of the local trading standards or police, to determin the legality and correctness of this deciet.

Of couse, as I've stated, this is all hypothetical and unrelated to this thread. No idea why I've posted it here, sorry. We have NO such immoral persons falsely claiming to be satisfied customers.

I apologige profusely for this post that is unrelated to the thread and the posted comments within.
