[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Rawish:
boot image

I asked this question some time ago 2 and the answer i got was also that it wasn't possible.

This is because the real boot image just isn't loading when you instal WM5 but when you use WM2k3 the boot image is installed with the ms_.nbf file. So maybe if you find a way to modify it you can change the boot image for WM2k3 and if you after find a way to load it with WM5 it should be (theoratically) changed.

I'm not a programmer so i still can't work with all the stuff to find it out myself. Maybe this can help a programmer to find a way to change it that would be very nice.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] xplode:
It would not work

WM5 has a difrend way for handling boot images, i am sure there is a way to change it , because i have seen it in many wm5 devices. But noone outside operators and microsoft does not know how to do it ...

I hope that we will find out some day

I hope there is a solution otherwise i am gonna loose tons of data :(

Anyone familiar with the Magpul cases... used mostly for iphone products? A couple friends have them and I really like them.

I'm wondering if there's a similar case for the G2. Something semi-ridged, but similarly thin as your basic silicone skin.

Not going to find anything of similar quality. The one thing I miss about my iPhone was my executive field case.

Hello everyone,

So I update my phone through kies last night (im not rooted). everything is running great. Just curious if anyone else out there is seeing the same thing I am. I was connected to wifi at my house and saw that I had the wifi symbol and 4g symbol both on the notification bar. the 4g symbol was greyed out tho.

thanks

i'm asking you this because i get better images when i use either xdabbeb modded camera app (you can find it here under developer's area subforums) or DSLR Camera Pro (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.vipek.camera) which gives me even more settings to fiddle with...

you can also try some other camera apps like

[Moto X Q&A] jaredtritsch:
I have a MotoX on KK 4.4 rooted.

Recently (since it started bugging about the 4.4.2 OTA update) I notice that occasionally and seemingly randomly, the device with make the animation for switching apps. The active app (even the home screen) fill fade out, then back in again. it almost appears as if the App is switching to something else that is NOT displayed, then back again.

Apps react to this as if the app was suspended and reactivated (Games pause, emails and websites refresh, etc).

I thought it may be something I added from rooting, i.e. Xposed, but I uninstalled all root apps and the behavior persists.

Any advice?
[Moto X Q&A] djlucask:
I never had that, I have an rooted and bootloader unlocked Moto X, Gravity Box and other frameworks enabled, I thing the best you could do is to reset your phone, and maybe re-do de update.
[Moto X Q&A] jaredtritsch:
Bumping thread.

Update: I tried resetting my phone back, and it went away, but as soon as it started trying to push the 4.4.2 update (which fails to install anyway) the problem returned.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
[Moto X Q&A] djlucask:
Sometimes when there is modified system files, the OTA update will fail. And to restore this files, maybe the best option is returning to your Stock Android (the same version you are using at the moment), guide here, works flawlessly: (http://xdaforums.com/moto-x/general/guide-moto-x-return-to-100-stock-using-t2446515)

And then trying to do the OTA update, remember that soon we'll get 4.4.3, so maybe this bug could be fixed.

Hi there iam trying to use my external USB-DAC (Audioquest Dragonfly) over the USB-OTG Connection and so far i atleast achieved somehow to playback tracks using "USB Audio Player Pro Trial & USB Audio Recorder Pro Trial" but iam facing some serious problems while doing so.

If i activate the lockscreen(pressing powerbutton) to turn the display of, i can't reactivate it anymore, it keeps playing the music but the screen doesn't turn on again.

After 1-2 Minutes it reboots itself without asking for the PIN etc...

Anyone else facing those issues, and is there a possibility to use the external Soundcard without third-party apps?

How about the leaked 4.4 build? I heard USB-Audio is fully functional in 4.4 without third-party apps.

Thank you :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] irishfan3124:
So I just got my S5 yesterday, it is all stock unrooted. When listening to music in the car, between songs, there is this popping sound. Not super annoying, but still it's not very pleasant to hear. Also happens when a notification sound goes off in the middle of a song, between the end of the notification sound and when the music starts again. Anyone else have this problem?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] xdm9mm:
Try resetting your phone if it stops the problem, otherwise, try flashing stock firmware, this will not trip your knox. If the issue is not resolved, return the handset for a replacement.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] em0ney14:
Are you using Bluetooth? Could be an interference somewhere or your volume on the phone is turned up too loud.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] justanotherasian:
Is your phone connected to your car's speaker? Or are you just playing the music over your phone?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] finotti:
I have the same problem. It is not too often, but it does happen every once in a while. I notice it more when connected to car speakers (via cable, no bluetooth). I am not sure if it happens with (regular, no bluetooth) headphones.

My phone is also stock, no root or anything. I've noticed the first time I tried it. I am not sure if I need to return it or not...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] justanotherasian:
It might be the cables. Though I have not experienced this with my phone, my earphones used to have the popping sounds and then one day one side just totally went off only to reconnect occasionally when I move it to a right bendy position, with the poppy sounds. So it might be the cables.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] vvveith:
Click, pop, or stutter.

Yes, always happens when using bluetooth over car speaker system. Turning on the screen will stop it from happening. From the information I have found here and on the web, the power saving that samsung wrote to help conserve battery let's the CPU go into a low power state when the phone's screen has been off for a period of time. But if you happen to be streaming music, it will start to skip, pop, or stutter. If you turn the screen on for a short period, don't even have to unlock the lock screen, it will stop misbehaving for the same short period of time. However, if you plug your phone in while driving, you can just leave the screen on and you should not experience the problem. Hope this helps, you can google it for more information. ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] pamplemoose5:
Pop Issue solved.

I've solved the issue. The reason that it makes a pop sound in between songs, is because when power saving mode is on, it is turning off the speaker in between songs. Just turn off "power saving" mode in your settings pull down on your Samsung, and it won't make a pop sound anymore.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] nathandias:
I am encountering the same problem on my Verizon Galaxy S5. There is a popping noise (actually it is a double "pop pop" sound) when switching tracks (occurs in Samsung music player as well as Google Play Music). It's also noticeable when muting/unmuting the phone, and when the phone screen seems to go off. I have disabled power saving features as suggested, but the problem remains.

The problem is not noticeable on headphones (but could be due to the lower volume levels of headphones). It IS noticeable when I use the phone with an AUX cable in my car, and extremely bad on the PA loudspeaker system I use for work (I'm a dance teacher, and have generally used my phone as a music player). This is very annoying, and not what I would expect from Samsung's "flagship" phone.

I did a factory reset as suggested by Samsung tech support. Still have the problem.

I took the phone into Verizon's corporate store in SF, and the Verizon staff member recreated the problem with his own S5 too, suggesting this problem is inherent in all S5s.

What baffles me is the lack of a large number of complaints on message boards and the Samsung support forum. Doesn't anyone use their cell phone to play music at birthday parties, weddings, etc? I would have expected more outcry about this.

Any help appreciated!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Mikeyb2k:
popping noise driving me mad on s5!

I have the same problem with a new s5 from 3 network. It's highly annoying and doesn't seem to matter which music player is used, power saver on or off and volume low or high on the phone or external speaker via an auxiliary cable. The same cable might I add I used for months for my S3. This just adds to annoying aspects to the s5 and I'm already looking for alternatives to Samsung even though my contract still has 23 months left! A fix for this is needed and will send the handset back for replacement if I have to!

I have the problem as well. Its freaking ridiculous. I thought it was my music player for the longest time. I don't believe I had the issue when I first got the phone, but I really don't remember. I don't have power saving on and it doesn't happen all the time either. But it only happens at song changes or pause/unpause. I get the same double pop as nathandias described. Its bothering me a ton.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] kn00tcn:
i was thinking it would be nice if people recorded the sound (standard audio cable from phone jack to line-in or mic of a computer)

Hi,
