Bro is there any way to delete the system memory which is already acquired in phone memory??
[Galaxy Grand 2 General] mvikred:
Thank you for the comprehensive list.

I carefully removed the unnecessary stuff and everything is working fine until I found out the following problem.

I am unable to set wallpaper from any other non-native app (native app is the default Samsung gallery).

If I try to use Google Photos to set a wallpaper, nothing happens. My guess is that I must've deleted an apk that is relevant to this, but I am unable to find out which that apk might be.

Any help in this regard would be very helpful.

Cheers!!

Hi,

I have uninstalled many system apps post root. Everything is slick and smooth except that when I go to Settings>More>About phone, settings is being closed. I must have deleted some app. I suspected uninstalling software update app is the reason and reinstalled through titanium backup. But didnot work. Please help.

Error message is a prevalent one "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped."

On the Galaxy S5 phone app logs, is there a way to set the logs to default to just calls? Going into the phone app and logs, It will show logs of texts even after they've been deleted.﻿ Is there a way to default this to just calls when going into this area or even better prevent the phone from keeping a log of deleted text messages?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] echooffzack:
Hey XDA! I'm new here and all, but I've heard a lot about this website and the help it can provide for everyone.

Anyways, with Apple's newest purchase of Beats by Dre, I've lost all respect towards the company and I've come to conclusion that I'd like to switch over to Android. My only problem with Android is the security (including stuff like CarrierIQ and whatnot), but I believe I can remove these things by flashing to Cynagenmod.

My biggest question here is: Is the Galaxy S4 right for me?

I'm big into customizing and making everything "my own" so that way I have total control over the whole device and what I can do with it. Including themes, tweaks, overclocking, larger batteries....the whole shebang.

I like the S4 the most because of the RAM, and the fact I can use my 32GB SDHC card with it, however I'm not sure if I've looked hard enough or if I've come to conclusion too quickly... I want something that's going to last me a long time.

My plans for it (if I chose the S4) are to flash it to Cynagenmod, get a protective case, and possibly an extended battery.

Anyways, I'm not sure if I posted in the right thread or not... But I need some help here. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm absolutely done with Apple.

Thanks in advance!

If you want to run CM11, you might want to consider something else. I don't know about the i9505, but the i9500 has chronic Bluetooth, audio and camera problems.

Security on Android is no problem. The CarrierIQ scandal had nothing specific to do with Android and affected iOS users as well, but that was way back in 2011.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] echooffzack:
Is there any chance these issues were fixed in a BETA release?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the Doctor:
No, CM11 on the i9500 only has nighties and does not get M releases. Read the last few pages of this thread to see recent happenings.

Ohhh... Okay.

That's too bad. Are there any other Roms you would consider using on a GS4? I've seen a few.. I just don't want to have to use TouchWiz xD I'm definitely going to stick to the GS4 though because of the hardware though. So now it's just a matter of choosing a Rom.

Thanks again!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxLordxX:
Hi,

First let's make clear the difference between GT-i9505 and GT-i9500. The i9505 is the Snapdragon variant of S4, while i9500 is the Exynos variant. While the Exynos variant has these issues on CM11 ROM, I loved using CM11 on Snapdragon S4, it was very smooth and I had no issues (actually in the beginning I had sound issues, but I believe it's now fixed).

Also, i9505 does have Snapshot CM releases! But I'd recommend you to check other devices as well, don't only go for Samsung because everyone is using it! If you really want best development support and the most of freedom to customize then I'd recommend you going for a Nexus device ;).

For i9500 I don't know many ROMs, the best would be reading the ROM threads and checking by yourself what features you'd enjoy and reading other people comments regarding the ROM ;).

I'm running CM11 on my I9505G and haven't encountered any real problems. There is an issue with the Google Camera app and HDR. It leaves you with a grey image. Other than that it's a lot smoother than the stock rom that installed on device.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] echooffzack:
So I've been doing some research (an extensive amount actually), and I've come to conclusion that PacMan 4.4 Rom is gonna be my best bet. It's got all the cool features CM has and more. There's OTA updates and full customization! Plus it's stable on the i9500 so I mean it sounds good all around.

Does the Nexus have a replaceable battery and an SD card slot?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxLordxX:
Hi,

Sorry but Nexus doesn't support SD card and doesn't have replaceable battery, if you need it then you should keep away from it ^^.

Ahh okay. I've been doing some more research and the Sony Experia Z1 looks really nice. I think I'd rather invest in that instead of a GS4.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxLordxX:
Hi,

I own a Z1, and it's an amazing device in all aspects. It doesn't have the same "BOOM" effect that S4 screen has, and the viewing angles are rather meh, but when X-Reality is activated in videos and such you get an amazing experience!

Also, make sure you buy a case for your Z1 if you get one, because my one slipped from my pocket and now the screen is shattered and touch isn't working anymore, bought a screen on eBay and waiting for it to arrive.

Here's a small pros and cons of both devices, from personal using of course.

Hope I could be of a good help ;). If it was me to choose one, I'd go for Z1 ;).

Hello guys. Im having some trouble here. I purchased this htc one used about a yr ago. These last couple of weeks I have been getting update screens and when i hit ok to update it downloads and when it installs it freezes about 30% in and i have to hold the power and vol up under a light to reboot it in which it loads into a screen with a red triangle. I reboot it again and it boots phone normal.

Now i did a little research and i believe my phone is unlocked. I just watched a 15 min video of unlocking bootloader and root. This one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2260376. At the end There was a app called SuperSU. I have always wondered what that was for and i do have that on my phone.

I would like to update my phone but have no clue what needs to be done or where to even start...

Any help would be much appreciated.

Update will not be applied until and unless you have a fully stock rom locked or relocked bootloader.

in this case you will have to run the ruu of your phone.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikola1970:
So when i bought my Z1 it was on 4.2.2 firmware. Then i updated it to 4.3 and i never had any single problem with it, so no bugs at all. At that time there were a lot of people complaining about touch screen problems but i really never faced any.

Then 4.4.2 came, and problems with it as well. First of all battery drain, my battery was 40% wrose then with 4.3, and i started facing some touch screen problems. Usually after i enable my 3g and start surfing the net touch goes nuts and uncontroled. Also when i was typing usually only left side of my screen was buggy, for example when i type letter A it is shown as D or S or even F, and sometimes it's stop working completely, i mean only very left side of my screen.

Couldn't resist anymore so i decided to downgradd to 4.3 .290 (coz it was wroking so perfectly and i never moved to .136 coz i head there are some problems). I did that with FlashTool and i thought everything will be as before and i will be happy again. But guess what? Touch screen problems started popping! Hmm i thought what now? So i decided to upgrade to .136 as it was offered with a hope that it will fix issues. But ofc nothing happend and i am in a problem.

I even found how i can produce these touch screen problems. I turn on my 3g and start a game Clash of Clans and after few mins my phone goes crazy. Then i go in "Sketch" program and i drow a straight lines from the top of the screen to the bottom and "lines" are not lines at all, it's crazy.

So i would like to try to repair my softeare with Sony PCC but it's not possible coz there is a new software update (4.4.2) and i wont update that.

What should i do in order to get rid of this problem, im pretty sure it's software related. How can i repair it? I should fash with flashtool again?

[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cutie.viru:
Hello Everybody,

Recently i bought Nokia Lumia 625 Black, WP8.0, i was thinking Nokia 'll give me fab experience using their Lumia Windows phone but i am really disappointed using its restricted windows phone, the things which i don't like in Windows phone are,

1) Can't easily manage my files on SDCARD/exSdcard, i have download many pdf file in my lumia and i tried to copy them in my laptop but surprisingly i saw that there is no folder for downloaded file in phone storage or extSdcard.

2) Camera photo quality is not that good.

3) I Can't hide my application which i was used to in my Android Core mobile.

4) There is no much app in app store and moreover they are oldest and not updated, many of their app crashes, like whatsapp, truecaller, etc.

5) Can't easily manage your ringtones.

6) Third party call recording is not working.

7) NO DUAL SIM so what it makes you satisfied is its battery performance, thats it, really disappointed buying nokia lumia windows series phone.

8) No option for USB tethering for internet sharing.

my question is that is there any option to manage file on sdcard or extsdcard?
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snickler:
No official file manager right now, but on WP 8.1 there is an app called Pocket File Manager( http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/app/pocket-file-manager/56dd9c3d-fe0a-4ceb-84b0-043e58e55b19 or search for it on the app store ) that should be able to manage the sdcard files. Again, you have to be on WP 8.1 in order to use it.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Pocket File Manager works just fine on 8.0, and has full access to the SD card there too. The 8.1 version could add more capabilities, but you don't strictly need it.

Camera quality is one of those you-get-what-you-pay-for situations. You bought a budget phone, with relatively low specs aside from its screen size. What did you expect? It'll give better camera performance than almost any other phone in the same price range, but no, it's not going to match a iPhone 5S or Lumia 1020 that costs 4x as much.

Not sure what you mean by "hide my application"; can you be more specific? I've used Android but not extensively.

The third-most popular platform is going to be the third to get apps, or app updates. In my experiences the first-party stuff works extremely well and the stuff from close partners is close, but third-party is a crapshoot. You could try unofficial clients, if you want; it's not that uncommon for them to be better than the official ones.

How much easier ringtone management do you want?!? It's the top item in Settings, and you can add custom ringtones and message alerts to any contact anywhere you can tap their name (People hub, Phone hub, Messaging hub, etc.). Creating ringtones from media files isn't easy with built-in tools but there are plenty of apps which can do it.

Call recording requires hooks at a level of the OS that could also be easily abused by malware. Microsoft could make a special API for that feature, but they haven't done so yet. If this is a vital feature for you, you should have researched what phones support this feature before buying... Most people never need it.

Dual-SIM is supported in the latest WP version, which your phone is upgradable to (which, I should point out, Android phones often aren't...). However, your actual phone doesn't have dual-SIM. If you wanted dual-SIM, why didn't you buy a dual-SIM phone, like the 630?

USB tethering is possible on some phones - for example, I can do it on my Ativ S - but it's unofficial. Is there some reason the official WiFi tethering doesn't work for you? You can still plug the phone into USB to keep it charged while you do that...
