Solution

I found a solution just in case some one will face the same problem :)

the problem was that there was a special APN for modem use, and the phone would use it by default when in hot spot mode

the APN comes with the stock roms by the way, so I just deleted it and now it uses the default APN while in HS mode that way both the phone and the connected devices get network connectivity
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mwatson:
Glad it's not just mine, I tether my M8 to my car HU. The HU connects to the hot spot by there is no data pass through. I've tried opening a web page on the M8 to force a data exchange but still nothing. This is intermittent tout very annoying when it happens.

Where in the menu do you alter these APNs?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GermanGuy:
Settings - Mobile Data - Access point names
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mwatson:
I only have one APN. thats for my provider. Must be something else causing the issue for me.

Hey guys first post on the threads, I have been using this site for a while now and love the great information!

I looked around and couldn't find something post that dealt with my problem so I will explain it here...

Before the sense 6 update I used my stock internet browser to watch YouTube videos, once the sense 6 update

came out I did the update like normal, and now when I go to watch YouTube it just shows the video buffering

but actually plays the audio, just no video...

Has anyone else experienced this issue? What should I do to fix it?

Hello, I've been wanting to buy a new phone lately and I've seen watched a few reviews on a replica for the Samsung Galaxy S5. Even though it's only around $100, its physical look, software and phone features are almost identical to the real thing.

A question for you all, would this replica be better than a real Samsung Galaxy S4 model?

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 7supreme:
Hello, sorry if this question had been posted before. I just confusing with my Xperia Z1. It's just blank screen, no Sony logo, no boot animation, etc.

I've tried to hold power+vol up but nothing happen. When i put the charge on and i press the power+vol up, it vibrate three times and nothing happen.

What should i do with this?? I hope it's not hardware failure.

Thx for the answer and suggestion.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emccccc:
did you flash anything prior to it going like that?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eclyptos:
When you hear the three times vibration then you shutting down your phone and after that the phone is turned off completely, then leave it under wall charger via USB or Dock for minimum 4 hours, if it do not turn on then you have to flash a new Firmware OR Repair via PC Companion. Download Official Sony PC Companion and repair your phone. Other way is to use Flashtool and download the latest FTF from Mega Collection and flash it. Then it should turn on.

if nothing is happening just the LED red blinks even when you put the device in the charge, its hard bricked and will be fixed just with opening the phone and relive it with test point ...

maybe this thread will help you:

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaeedFazlollahzadeh:
If it's brick, no prob, let's begin

Requirements:

The latest Flash Tools version, the latest FTF file of your phone, or any FTF file you want

Plug your phone to AC charger for about one or two minutes, and if you see red LED, now your phone is OK

1) If your phone has more than 50 percent charges, you can unplug it

2) If it has less 50 percent, let it charge for about an hour or more till it reaches 70 percent

So, no matter the first way or second, after you unplug it, now you can now connect your phone via USB and flash it

If you do everything correctly and if nothing goes wrong, after flashing, you can use your phone without any problem

If you couldn't do it, inform me to help you more

Drain your battery completely

By Pressing and holding volume up and power button for 15 second, no vibration dont worry just hold it for 15 seconds and forget your phone for 1-2 days

Get working charger and usb cable check it then connect charger to phone there should be red light

Leave your phone for 3-4 hours

Now disconnect your phone from charger

Again check usb cable and drivers in pc

Open flashtool and get stock ftf ready for flashing

Once the dialog box appears with phone's animation

press and hold just volume down button and connect your phone with pc and immediately Release volume down button as soon as dialogue box disappears

Then disconnect phone when instructed in flashtool and wait for 4-5 minutes

Now try to turn on the phone.

Main thing is to have patience

This should work as i have my phone in same hardbricked state twice and this brought life in my phone back..!

Edit:

After battery changing, the phone worked. I don't know why, but it had been locked and rebooted repeatedly. Then I resetted to the factory settings. After that, it has been started to run well.

My Note 3 has a very nice native email app but I can't seem to find it on the Tab 8.4. Tried using the one from the Note 3 but it crashes. The only email client that is built in seems to be Gmail.

What gives? First Samsung leaves out Screen Mode and now this. Why are they targeting the 8.4 to leave things out?

Anyone know where I can get a version of the Note 3 email .apk that I can use on the 8.4? Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Themes and Apps] pilmoore:
You might want to check again. There is an email app from Samsung included on the 8.4.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Themes and Apps] mitchellvii:
Yes you are correct. My bad on that.

Apparently when I flashed freeza's rom I did a full wipe first and deleted it. So I went back to my Nandroid of the stock setup and copied the SecEmail_Tablet.apk to my external SD card. I flashed freeza's rom without doing a full wipe but the Email app once again disappeared. I then placed the saved .apk in my system/app folder and rebooted. STILL no email app.

Not sure what I'm doing wrong here.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kadajawi:
Hello,

for some reason in TWRP I can't fix permissions. When I have it create a backup it fails at the point where it tries to create a folder. In the file manager I can't even rename a folder.

I'm running a CyanogenMod monthly from about 3-4 months ago, and have the latest TWRP version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] latenightchameleon:
Sounds strange, assuming everything else works fine. Not sure, but try updating the ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kadajawi:
Yeah, but I'd like to do a backup before I update the ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ashclepdia:
I wonder if your /sdcard got write protection somehow...I thought I saw [MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION] had a flashable zip for fixing that...apologies if I'm mistaken and sorry I'm not certain where to find this zip
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kadajawi:
Could be. But why would it only apply in TWRP? When the phone has booted everything works fine. Only in recovery do I run into problems (which makes me scared of flashing a newer ROM too...).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
It should make a difference booted as well, so that's odd.

Easiest thing: Try my sdcard fix permissions zip. Might work anyway. http://v.ht/osm0

More annoying: adb pull everything (my adbsync sdcard Backup might make that easy for you), format data, push it all back then run my sdcard fix permissions zip.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ashclepdia:
do you use encryption?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kadajawi:
I couldn't flash the zip. It failed.

No encryption.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kadajawi:
wow. My phone is trying to screw me. Again and again and again. I've tried wiping the sdcard, didn't work. Had to factory reset it. Now that part was ok. Used TitaniumBackup to restore my phone. Reboot... and it was stuck at the boot screen.

Had to factory reset again, this time only let TitaniumBackup install my apps and their settings. Have to set up the system itself again.

Since I am using a VPN I need to lock the screen with a PIN (I hate that, but oh well... Android forces me). After I have set up the VPN, everything was working fine, at some point my phone crashed. And after it started again, I could not enter the PIN code anymore. I was locked out of my phone. The phone still displayed that I pressed a number, but no number did appear. Aaaand factory reset, AGAIN!

Really? What the hell is wrong? I'm worried it might be a hardware problem. The USB port is not working properly anymore, most of the time, and I'm afraid the built in memory is gone. Oh how I hate that. My HTC had the SD card die, but replacing it fixed it. I have a LG with fixed built in storage, where the memory died. Since I was overseas for a couple of months, and LG refuses to fix phones outside of the country it was bought, I had a brick for a few months. And now it seems to have hit my Galaxy Nexus. Yay. Who thought fixed built in storage was a good idea?
[G3 General] helikido:
I created this thread specifically for all the members to talk about the new 2k screen of the LG G3. The screen is the most important feature of the LG G3 and it is what LG brags about the most. For many of us including me, the screen will be the deciding factor of whether we buy the phone or not.How does the new 2k display panel perform in real life situations compared to other high end phone display panels like the Galaxy S5 or HTC One M8? Let's have a nice dedicated thread to the most important feature on this phone. :D

Ideas to talk about:

•Contrast levels

•How your content looks on it

•Your thoughts of it compared to the previous display you had.

•Any weird issues? (Screen interlacing, ghost issues)

•Color production

•Do you find it nice and worthwhile?

•How are those BLACK LEVELS (Important!)

•Any heat issues with the screen?

•Good high and low brightness levels?
[G3 General] vervester:
All of the above... Thinking of upgrading from a nexus 5...
[G3 General] Spewy1:
I have seen a couple of reviews that say the max brightness is quite dim. Can someone who owns one confirm if this is true?

The G2 has the best display I have ever had and I don't want to downgrade to a duller screen (I am not bothered about the high res as the G2 has enough res. I want bright and vibrant!
[G3 General] Canard caché:
Go to s5 ^^ it's too bright and too vibrant :laugh: (^^)
[G3 General] Jimmy34742:
And ffs please, reviewers, don't simply declare that you can't distinguish individual pixels on 1080p as well as 2k and then conclude from that that the extra resolution doesn't make a difference. The question is: how do you subjectively experience visual items in 2k vs. 1080p--images, text, UI items, etc.. Past 325 dpi, a pixel is not an item, so it's irrelevant that you can't see one. Tons of those online reviews provide what the reviewer thinks their impression of the screen must be instead of the reviewer providing their true impression.
[G3 General] Spewy1:
I don't like the s5. Various reasons but mainly the cover over the charging port and overall design.

I love my g2 but need more memory (64gb minimum). I am worried about the screen on the g3 but the reviewers all focus on the resolution but I want to hear from real users about the real world experience of the screen.

Many thanks in advance for any input from owners of the phone.
[G3 General] liqn7:
Great Arstechica review as usual :)

http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2014/06/lg-g3-review-a-great-phone-with-way-too-many-pixels/
[G3 General] Colchiro:
That cover on the S5 (my wife has one), is for water proofing and easily ripped off.

Personally, I could use a screen with less pixels and longer screen-on time. I consider the screen resolution to be a minus. My preference is less pixels and make it a 6", like the HTC One Max I just returned after a week.
[G3 General] Jimmy34742:
Can't agree with you there. They did the same move as all the other reviewers where they presume that the inability to distinguish individual pixels automatically means people can't see any overall difference in image quality:

That's why I asked above that any reviewers here avoid that particular groupthink and tell us how they actually experience 2k vs. 1080p.
[G3 General] theraker007:
I think the most important caveat is that hardly any apps will be optimized for 2k display when the phone finally arrives.

HAving said that, kind of hard to judge don't you think?
[G3 General] hamad138:
Contrast and black levels are bad , i can garantee u that
[G3 General] Canard caché:
How can you? :confused:
[G3 General] Jimmy34742:
That's logical. But so is the idea that the human eye can't distinguish pixels at a density greater than 326dpi. So, yeah, it comes down to subjective judgment calls. In that case, I'm interested in the subjective point of view of people who actually have one of these devices and their actual experience. We already know how do deduce logically what everyone's experience must be, and all the reviews I've read only do that. Images and text may appear sharper at a given distance from the eye in a way unrelated to whether or not you can distinguish an individual pixel.
[G3 General] Semantics:
From Mashable's review. Everyone's eyes are different I guess.

[G3 General] Reechings:
I truly hope that the screen is great on this phone but I can't wait any longer and have just ordered an S5. I have waited for all the flagships to come out this year and was truly hoping that the G3 would be the one. Two of the most important things to me are brightness and battery life and I'm worried that with the G3 I would end up having the brightness cranked all the time and would have poor battery life as a result. Really wanted to try LG this time but lost my nerve :(

Tapped it!
[G3 General] helikido:
Seriously? Those are much more important then resolution to improve upon.
[G3 General] hamad138:
yes but not for marketing.
[G3 General] yokken:
I'm most concerned with the viewing angles, black levels, contrast, and color accuracy. I'm definitely getting the G3 but I really don't want to have to play the panel lottery. I'd prefer a warmer display over a cooler display - as long as it's not noticeably pink/green/blue, I'm fine. A slight yellow/orange tint is okay, but obviously a calibrated display would be the best. My black Nexus 5's viewing angles aren't great, with the screen washing out at 30+ degree angle. My buddy's white Nexus 5 seems to have better viewing angles, so I'm not sure what the deal is. I'm pretty confident in LG's ability to produce good displays -- they pretty much made this phone just to show off their new display. :p
[G3 General] Jimmy34742:
Actually, I'm now concerned about the narrowness of the bezel. Yes, it's a cool feature, and everyone dreams of a bezel-less phone, but I already have problems due to the narrowness of my S4's bezel. When I'm holding my phone for an extended time, referring to notes while speaking to people, my grip often gets interpreted by the system as a touch and hold. That pops up a dialog that I have to dismiss, and it's really obtrusive in real time situations. Sure, I could be more careful, but it's just too easy to make that problem happen during normal usage. It's not like I have big fat hands or a weird grip or anything. I've already been thinking that when we finally get bezel-free phones, there will have to be utilities to create a non-reactive border of pixels in a user-specified width, or else the user will accidentally be popping things up all over the place. At present, though, I think the G3's large size and tiny bezel are actually going to make it difficult to use the way I want to use it even though it's hardly bigger than my S4. You never know until you actually use it for a few days and try to adapt, but there's no way to do that without buying it, which I'm now hesitant to do.

what should i do? how to fix it? what have caused it?
