[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] mraines:
I am a long time user of apple , I think apple lost me after the 4S, the closed ecosystem is terrible in my view. So I switched to nexus 5 and never looked back. On tablet I bought the tab 8.4 , and put aside my iPad retina . I last week upgrade it to iOS 8 , and have to say I'm disappointed and not impressed . so I'm still loyal to my macbook on the PC side. But as far as tablet and phone no question in my mind that you get better value and better ecosystem in an android device. I also didn't root my tab, only put on it Google now lquncher and I love it , love the density and sharpness of the screen
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] DannyBiker:
Jumping in the thread :

So I got 7 and 10.1 tablets in the past. They both have their strengths and weaknesses but I would like to have your opinions on the 8.4/10.1 Pro more specifically.

By default, I'd go with the 10.1 for the bigger screen and battery especially as it seems quite light, especially in comparison to my past 10.1 devices.

However, the 8.4 seems to have more ROM support and looks more powerful. Plus, the 8.4 format allows a better grip with one hand. But I'm afraid the battery won't hold as much as I want to.

So, here my questions :

- Is there any work done on CM11 for the 10.1 ?

- How comfortable is the 10.1 to hold ?

- Is the 8.4 really much more powerful and snappy ?

Thanks !
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] crpalmer:
You need to be more specific on the 10.1... For the 10.1 LTE (sm-t525 aka picassolte) CM11 is coming along nicely but for the WiFi only 10.1 (sm-t520) there is no known work on it for CM11.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] DannyBiker:
I was thinking about the Wifi version, sorry. I forgot that the LTE model is also Snapdragon and benefits, I guess, of the work done on the 8.4.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] DannyBiker:
Acutally, I need my tablet for some productivity as well. Mostly, taking meeting notes on the go. Is the 8.4 screen big enough in landscape to do so ?

Hey Everyone,

Just activated my N5 on Sprint today. Has anyone sideloaded the Sprint Zone APK onto the phone? What about the Voicemail app? Neither seem to be available in the Play Store. Any help y'all could provide would be appreciated!

This is Fantastic!

Here is a patchwork job I did of the Google+ and Youtube card interfaces. It looks like they made the shadow a bit subtler and added a 1 px border that goes from dark to slightly lighter on the top. This is probably part of their Hera/Moonshine UI, do you think it'll be part of Quantum Paper cards, too? If so, I'm not able to figure out how to define it in an XML relative to what you've posted.

Again, great tutorial and starter project!!

Please help.

I have an XDA2i and I'm running Active Sync 4.2.0. When I try to sync, everything works fine, except I cannot select calander as a sync option with my XDA. Where I would normally go into options and check the box for calendar, there is no check box.

This is really starting to do my nut in as I've tried creating a new profile but the problem follows the profile. Any suggestions would be mostly appreciated.

Thanks
[General Topics] AlanJC:
Have you got a default calendar set-up in outlook?
[General Topics] Und3rgr0und:
Yes...it used to work. It suddenly stopped allowing any synchronization, that's when I created a new profile for the XDA2i and updated to 4.2 but it will now not synchronize Calendar. It will sync the Contacts & tasks but the most important thing for my work is the Calendar.

Calander problem and other queries

Hi I have had an xda2i in the past and it all worked fine with the Calander. This week my newer model xdamini S broke down so I turned to the replacment xda2i i had been sent when the other one packed up and I just cant get it to recognise the calander. Its just not in the list. As you say contacts etc is there but Calander is not. The strange thing is when setting up connection you can choose to sync with calander, contacts etc which I select only to find that once the sync occurs Calander is just not in the list. Can anyone you had anyone help solving this?? Im using outlook 2003. Also the xda2i im using has not got the latest drivers I have looked for them on the 02 site but they dont seem to be their anymore. Finally, what does the radio version do anyway? Help with these issues would be greatly appreciated.
[General Topics] Und3rgr0und:
Right then....

...The only workaround I have managed to find is simple...

1) Remove the ActiveSync software and all pairings

2) Hard Reset the XDA2i (yes, that means everything is lost is nothing has sync'd)

3) Re-install ActiveSync and recreate the partnership again.

It seems drastic, but since doing that the XDA2i now functions perfectly. Hope this helps some people (I'm reluctant to try anything like this on my new Mini S cos I can't get it to partner up at all..but that's another thread ;))
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] pcmp:
This is Brazil´s top four networks frequencies;

1-Vivo

GSM-900/1800 (GPRS, EDGE)

2100 MHz UMTS, HSDPA, HSPA+

2600 MHz LTE

2-TIM

GSM-900/1800 (GPRS, EDGE)

2100 MHz UMTS, HSDPA,

2600 MHz LTE

3-Claro

GSM-900/1800 (GPRS, EDGE)

2100 MHz UMTS, HSDPA, HSPA+

2600 MHz LTE

4-Oi

GSM-1800 (GPRS, EDGE)

2100 MHz UMTS, HSDPA

2600 MHz LTE

I know LTE won´t work, and from what I remember of Tmo´s 3G our S4 needs two bands to work (1700/2100 ?).

Can I make it work on a single 2100 band?

Or, am I really doomed and stuck with EDGE or worse?

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] pcmp:
Is this a stupid question?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
Its just a hard one to answer.. But you definitely won't get LTE, 3G/HSPA will probably be a hit or miss. Its not worth the gamble IMO
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] pcmp:
Thanks. Unfortunately I already paid to get in. I´m in Brazil now for the world cup. I didn´t want to change my granfathered plan with tmo to get their "unlimited international data", and thinking about it, if I can get 3G with tmo over here then I can get with the local carriers. But what I´m afraid of is that tmo´s free data is only edge as they have a page saying "Standard speeds approx. 128 Kbps (for all countries)". So it wouldn´t do me much good to change the plans anyway.

What I was hoping was that the phone would be capable of using the 2100MHz both ways or that I could flash a radio that would allow the s4 to work that way.

I´ll test the first premise at the store on Wednesday. If anybody knows about the second one, please tell.

Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
Oh I thought you lived in Brazil and was looking to get one.. And yup the standard is 2G unlimited but I think if you pay around $50 you get 5gb of high speed internet, which I guess would be 3g/hspa, don't know about LTE

Edit: there is a possibility 3g/h will work, all T-Mobile phones should support that band so hopefully it'll be able to pick it up
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] pcmp:
Well, well, well... unless my phone is reporting wrong or their hspa+ is real fast here, i think I'm getting LTE in Brasil with a US phone.

As soon as I put the SIM card in, a LTE 4G sign appeared on thr top right. I couldn't believe it so I did a test with that speedtest app (oogla?) and got around 15Mbps download and around 3Mbps upload. The bad part is that the app used 50MB for test, which cost me around a buck just for the test. But it made me so happy that I think it was worth it.

So what do you think of that? Is this a real fast 3g+, or does this phone have the LTE band (4?) they use here?

There are stories about it having all the bands, and maybe the limited bands story is just FUD.

Would their sim card be able to make changes to the phone? Cause I found a new app with the carrier name installed after I put the sim in, and my phone wasn't set to allow installation from 'unknown sources'.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
that's surprising but yes it does have band 4 LTE, good to know it works!! didn't think 2600mhz would be band 4, or it may have larger support for LTE bands, couldn't say for sure since I never go out of the country to test on my own

Edit: and what do you mean making changes to the phone?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] rlichtefeld:
If you see the 4G LTE symbol in the notification bar, then you are using 4G LTE. Kewl.

Hey, i would like to update from ics to jb but what is the difference between using an ota and flashing a firmware from the sbf droid developers site or even here?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2239706

I have bootloader unlocked and ics rooted already if that makes any difference.
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marco Lomas:
I recomend a lot install the jb firmware and not usibg the ota service, for avoid phone bricks, also, if you install the jb firmware with rsd lite, you have the posibility to return to ics without brick ;) (i dont know why you will return but its a extra)

Enviado desde mi XT890 mediante Tapatalk
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hazou:
That's not entirely true that u cant go back when u have installed it by OTA update. With rsd and with ota update u will upgrade some files exactly the same way with both methods, that must not be downgraded. Those files are the bootloader and partition files aka motoboot, gpt, dns, ifwi and (bos?).

I recommend if u ever want to downgrade, flash all things manually. Flash the boot, recovery and system partitions only when going from JB to ICS and erase the cache/data partition or u will get a software-brick. Is fixable though.

But to go from ICS to JB (upgrade), I go with Marco for the rsd flash. Especially when rooted i think. There is a small change that u will relock the bootloader, but i don't know that for sure. However it should work with OTA in theory if u have stock recovery...
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tangonegr:
Thanks alot guys :) I updated with rsd lite and it worked my bootloader is still unlocked, but i noticed the when i boot up, the initial screen changed from the motorola logo with "bootloader unlocked" written, to a sort of warning notification about the bootloader being unlocked.

Hazou thats exactly what i wanted to know actually because i was confused about the downgrading process, seeing that many have hard-bricked. One more question, you say i must flash those files individually, but what about restoring a nandroid backup i made when on ics?
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hazou:
No problem, as long as u don't touch any of those bootloader files there is almost no chance that things can go wrong.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] samatagana:
I'm certainly no professional when it comes to phone dev and this may be something that is already widely known, but I know it is something that I struggled with when I first started fiddling with my Note 3...

I found that with some of the ROMs I was flashing that my MMS wouldn't work with Hover Chat (That's the sms app that I use because I'm slightly small minded and have an affinity for chat bubbles). Anyway, I tried flashing some zips I found here and elsewhere but nothing worked. In the end I found that simply putting http://mms.sprintpcs.com into the MMSC field worked perfectly for me.

I don't know if some of you actual developers know something about that that might be wrong or if there is a better fix... Thoughts?

NVIDIA says the mainstream tablet and smartphone market is no longer their focus

May 22nd 2014 by Quentyn Kennemer

Once upon a time NVIDIA made plays to try and get into any smartphone or tablet they could. With stiff competition from Qualcomm and other chipset vendors, they’ve found that task to be very difficult. They credit their hard hurdles to MediaTek even more, because MediaTek’s value-positioned platform wins out for many mid-level or small OEMs.

So NVIDIA’s calling it quits… somewhat. In a recent interview, NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang talked about their struggles in the market so far and what they’re doing to adapt. For starters, he says they realize that competing for the “mainstream” smartphone and tablet market is no longer a desire for them.

I've now just read that chip is going to "revolutionize gaming" and will power 4K easily.

http://mashable.com/2014/01/06/nvidia-tegra-k1/

Now I'm afraid to even pull the trigger on the Asus or Samsung offerings. Not until I see where this chip lands, in future devices, and how they spec out.
[General Questions and Answers] BarryH_GEG:
[Q] CNET - You delayed Tegra 4 for Tegra 4i. Did that turn out to be a mistake? Did you miss this whole design cycle?

[A] Nvidia's CEO: I would say that Tegra 4i didn't pan out. We learned a lot in the process. But there are many things in our company that didn't pan out. That's OK. If you want to be an innovative company, you have to fail. Look, we built a great chip. LG's shipping it in the rest of the world outside the United States. It's a fantastic processor. But from a business strategy, it wasn't a success. So I learned a lot from it. It's OK. I'm glad I did it, and now we're moving on.

[Q] CNET: Why did Tegra struggle in smartphones?

[A:] Nvidia's CEO: Our focus as a company is still performance-oriented. The mainstream phone market commoditized so fast that really the...differentiators were price. And you can see the pressure that MediaTek is putting on Qualcomm, and you can see the pressure that MediaTek is putting on Marvell and Broadcom and all of these companies. Because guess what? They're the lowest-cost provider. I think that for mainstream phones, there's one strategy that really works right now, which is price. That's not our differentiator. That's not what we do for a living.

Sounds dead to me; at least in mainstream tablets and smartphones. Who's going to use it anyway? Qualcomm, Samsung, and MediaTek have better scale and produce equal or better chips so who needs Nvidia if they aren't price competitive?

This really isn't a relevant conversation for the SGS5 forum anyway. The Tab S' are still using S-800 so it appears all of Samsung's tablets starting with the N10.1-14 are using the same h/w which means Exynos 5420 for the Tab S which doesn't have HMP enabled where the 5422 in the SGS5 does. The display area and sheer amount of pixels in Samsung's 2560x1600 tablets also make this an irrelevant comparison. There's like 10 people in the TF701 forum and it's been marked down everywhere to $299. Between Nvidia's and the TF701's position I'd say its day in the sun has passed. If it every had one.
[General Questions and Answers] xRevilatioNx:
Barry

They aren't leaving the market. They just don't want to be mainstream. In order to do do they would have to be cost efficient as well. That's not what Nvidia is about.

You left this tidbit out..

Lastly, as another poster said, your seeing their latest chip by Nvidia rolling out in tablets. So as I said before, I may wait it out. See what other manufacturers this chipset pops up in, and how the rest of the tablet specs out. 4K capability is also a plus, along with be the best gaming tablet on the market, with that chipset.

Barry. Thank you for your opinion. If you were a gamer like me. Who also enjoys multimedia consumption, at the highest quality. What would you do?

Edit: Barry, disregard my quote. I see you have it up there and now realize your rationalization. So you don't expect it showing up (in any prominent fashion) , in the tablet market.
