[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paul_viado:
thats not an android specific problem..its more a playstore problem..ive have encountered this a least once with every single android phone i've own dated back to the OLD Motorola DROID days its basicallly hanging cuz its not "receiving" data connection. whether wifi or cellular. a remedy that i've learned is to look for the current app that is "downloading" and cancel the download.and it should move on to the next one and start downloading again. works everytime for me.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FunDionysus:
Yes, tried that. And as stated attempted to update apps individually.

Found that I could update via wifi. But not via StraightTalk data connection. Previously did not have issues updating via StraightTalk. So have to research this issue.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FunDionysus:
I can still download updates via wi-fi connection but no longer able to download Play Store manual updates when connected to StraightTalk data connection. Up to about three weeks ago I was able to download updates via StraightTalk, but no longer. When connected to StraightTalk I still receive notifications app updates are available but they will not download, either individually or selected as a group ('update all'). When update is selected, the Play Store shows a download notification for a few seconds and continuously displays "downloading..." on the apps page but nothing else.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FunDionysus:
Still unable to figure this out. Everything else is working fine. Just not able to download app updates from PlayStore when connected to StraightTalk (AT&T) data connection. Downloading updates via wifi works fine. But I'm almost always in an area without wifi access.

UPDATE: I allowed the update download attempt continue for ten minutes or so, and an error notification finally shows up:

"Error

Update for "whatever app" could not be downloaded due to an error. (495)"

Googled "could not be downloaded due to an error (495)" and found some possibilities I need to research.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FunDionysus:
Discovered that was a generic error message.

But found a solution. In Settings > Data Usage > Mobile > Media > 'Restrict background data' was checked.

Guess I won't do that again ;)

So my next question is how to set Google Play to NOT check for updates.

I know how to disable auto updates, but I'd like the phone to also not check for updates. I rather do that on my own.
[General Questions and Answers] YourTheBest:
Hello,

I installed a new custom Rom, and I would like to try another DPI Custom Size for my Nexus 4.

I Liked 241, and 240, but that conflits when I typ numbers to call somebody.

So what is the best DPI size? Also for apps, etc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] phnord:
Sot this is not a "favorite rom?" or "which rom is best?" thread. I know those are frowned upon, because people are investing their energy into developing these ROMs here and we aren't here to judge their work.

Rather, I am looking to see which ROMs are best oriented towards a certain criteria - both in their goals and execution. That's not a subjective judgement; I am looking for objective design focuses, which I think is a valid question to ask.

My Note is my sole mobile device, and as such I am looking for:

Stability

Battery Life

Speed

UI Tweeks To Enhance Efficency (mulitasking, toggles, etc.)

Modern features (kit kat > jellybean > etc.)

Considering those priorities in that order, what ROM would you recommend?

Beanstalk

Liquidsmooth

PAC-Man

AOKP

CandyKat

Dirty Unicorns

Padawan

Something else?

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 440bro:
I recommend you try them all, and see what works best on your device the way you like it setup! :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] phnord:
The problem with that approach is that setting things up on my phone is never a simple or easy process. I always have a hellish time getting everything backed up, restored and setup again the way I want it... that is why I am asking for some guidance as to what ROM may best fit my needs as opposed to blindly flashing everything that moves.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] captemo:
My friend, you may not have any choice. Every device is going to run differently, and it sounds as if you already know that. The troubles and hassles we all face in setting up our phones is the burden we all bear, being flashaholics.

Truthfully, you cant have good without evil and this is not Burger King. You will have to sacrifice something. We just shoot for as many on our list as we can get. If that is the priority of your list, you may want to consider ICS. That would probably handle 4 of your 5.

You cant be in a hurry to satisfy your list. 440bro is correct, only you know what you can tolerate. Unfortunately you will have to tolerate setting up. Install and run for a week. You are not going to know how a rom is going to run in a couple hours.

Just suggestions......start with ICS.

So you dont set everything up???
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] phnord:
Question: why go for ICS? Isn't that pretty dated at this point? Are the KK and even the JB builds all so buggy or power hungry that I need to reach back that far to get something stable & efficient?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] captemo:
Just going off your list....

KK seems to use more battery. Never found it buggy myself

The 2 Touchwiz based 4.1.2 are solid and dependable. Most complain about lag, but set up right my phone ran orgasmic.

ICS is going to give you best battery, rock solid , but may not have all the bells and whistles you want.

4.2.2 is just a random reboot nightmare for most.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Sloogle_Flugelmann:
If you use speakerphone, I wouldn't use any rom above 4.1.2 (CM 10.0.0). Any other ROM has the speakerphone echo bug.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattish.91:
Hello, im having a question related to the HLTE SM-N9005 as far as i have heard from a friend there is a unofficial paranoid android build for this device and thats what i have been searching for during the last 4 hours, i he also told me that the pa settings were in some kind of beta stage and that only som of the features wern't working correctly. Have any one seen/heard that there is a pa build for hlte? I really miss the tablet ui :( would be perfect for this device.

if any one have seen the pa build please share a link in the comments below or tell me how to find it. with love from a huge pa fan. :D
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewnelson23:
Hey bro! I have the n900t but use hlte roms as well. I have not found a PA build. I think hlte was originally going to be a legacy device for pa, back in like march or April, but hlte was removed from that legacy list for an unknown reason.

You can, however, use carbon rom which is an aosp ROM with a lot of features. It has many of the pa features, like hover, peek, pie etc. I don't think I've seen a tablet ui setting for it, but I think you should be able to use xposed for that, do you know what that is?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattish.91:
hum, wierd that they removed hlte :s, Yes, I do know what exposed is, and I saw there was some kind of module that were supposed to force tablet ui but since google remover tablet ui from the framework I'm not able to get it, I'm only getting phablet ui which isn't even close to tablet ui hopefully some devs manage to merge the tablet part from earlier versions of android so that all users with at least larger screens could use it xD

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] instantsneaker:
Hello!

First post; casual question. I currently have the i317, 4.1.2, Jedi X20, TWRP 2.6.0.3, Windows8 64bit; TMobile. I've downloaded 4.3param_tz.tar and am attempting to update via Odin 3.09 or 3.07. I boot into download mode, or reboot into download mode via TWRP; load the .tar file into Odin via the AP selection and click on start. It runs for only a few seconds and reboots either back into Jedi or into TWRP (again depending on the method I used to get into download mode).

My experience is limited to loading custom ROMS via TWRP, and changing the modem once or twice. My question is am I better off leaving well enough alone or are there benefits to upgrading to 4.3? If it is a good idea to upgrade any help on doing so as I seem to be missing something.

Thanks!

[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] büscher:
hello everyone

I bought a gtab pro 8.4 and first thing to do was to root, install a proper recovery and of course a custom kernel. After that I debloated my stock rom but I deleted nothing I would call important.

this is my first upper class samsung device since years (I own a galaxy nexus) and I have a question that may some of you could answer:

Does SideSync:

- need KNOX to work?

- depend on other preinstalled apps?

- not work if binary counter for custom roms or kernel is increased?

I can't get it to work, neither with USB nor over Wifi...

Thank you all

edit: or is sidesync on our tabs only to control the mobile phone and not to be controlled by a computer?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] stuartv:
I have a GTP 8.4 and an S4 phone. I have SideSync 3.0 setup with them paired.

1) I believe SideSync is only between phone and tablet - no PC involved or supported.

2) After playing with it for 30 minutes or so, SideSync looks completely useless to me.

- SideSync will only connect the devices when they are both on the same WiFi network. So, if you're out and about, you can use it. If you're using your phone as a hotspot and the tablet connected to the Internet via the hotspot, you also can't use SideSync.

- There is a free app for Verizon customers called Verizon Messages, which I already have on my tablet, It gives me full SMS/MMS mirroring between my phone and tablet - without having to pair the devices.

- Leaving SideSync running all the time is a battery hog, so you wouldn't want to do that. So, when you DO want to use it, you have to start it on both devices. Well, if I'm going to pick up my phone to start SideSync, just to control it with my tablet, what's the point? I can just do whatever I need to do on my phone when I pick it up.

- Being able to place/receive calls using my tablet, with it actually going through the phone might be cool sometimes, but, as I said, if I have to grab my phone and start SideSync first, I'm probably just going to make the call using the phone. Alternatively, I'd try to figure out a way to pair my tab to the phone using Bluetooth and use the tablet as a handsfree device instead, leaving SideSync out of it.

If anyone can tell me something useful about SideSync, I'd love to hear it. I may have tried it and totally missed some cool use case.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] username4this:
Hello guys,

I have a Nexus 7 2013 which I've used to play around alot and it was my very first decent Android device.

Since I loved it so much, I traded my Windows Phone for an Android Phone and the choice was a 16GB Sim free Nexus 4.

Now I have been having a problem after flashing new custom Roms, and the problem is, after every boot I get greeted with a "System IUD's Inconsistent" error message and a bunch of app force close which leaves the device unusable until I restore everything back.

It only goes away after I boot into TWRP and click "Fix permissions" but as soon as I load another Rom up, the problem appears again until I do the TWRP thing again. Now, I know this isn't normal because it doesn't happen on my Nexus 7 so I guess there is a way to properly fix this issue. I've tried reflashing TWRP but the problem always comes up again.

Any advice?

Thanks

1) The mp4 anim .... after you download it change the name to bootanimation.zip, then use a File Manager to move it to the following folder .... /data/local/moodle/ ....

2) The JPG anim .... after you download it change the name to bootanimation.zip then use a File Manager to move it to the following folder .... /system/media/ ....

Please NOTE the following points.... These are not "Recovery flashable zips" .... do NOT open the zip file to install .... if you want to keep your current animation rename it before you start (or it will get overwritten)

HI all, during the flashing of a rom I've made a big mistake., I've flashed a the Cyano 11 rom for ME301 to my TF300T

Everything went good, but Wifi didn't worked. So I discovered my mistake and tried to flash the correct rom via CWM

But after loading the zip CWM told me that "This package is for TF300T devices; this is a "ME301T"

How can I flash the correct rom?

Hey y'all, so I no longer have the S4 Active (which is why the threads for previous patches have become deprecated), but thanks to the help of [MENTION=1978698]zero061099[/MENTION] we were able to pull the required kernel modules. This patch provides a fix for hard keys, data, and wifi. [MENTION=1978698]zero061099[/MENTION] tested the newest version (as of 6/21/14) of Hyperdrive for the S4 and he can confirm it is working, although you do have to manually enter AT&T's APN settings (see below). I still haven't been able to figure out the camera, but I'm hoping to do a bit of research in the near future.

Because I no longer have the device, the amount of support that I can provide is limited. That's where you come in! If a member with the I537 who is running a Linux distro on his/her PC, I am willing to write up a little script that will automatically generate a new i537-x.x.x-masterpatch.zip via ADB whenever a new update is released. I will be available to provide some guidance, but I don't check this sub-forum much any more. If you are interested in taking over the project or have some questions about it, please feel free to PM me or (preferably) message me on Hangouts.

It's really more of a Samsung issue. Anybody who has a AT&T or Verizon branded Samsung phone released in the last year and a half has a locked bootloader (S4, S4 Active, S5, Note 3, etc.) So it's not that the S4 Active is unpopular, it's that nobody has figured out how to unlock the bootloader on any of these phones yet.

Thats exactly right its a year and half old making it even less popular...phones for the most part get released aprox once a year IE s2 s3 s4 etc....partially true ya no one has figured out the bootloader but not alot of developers are gonna be interested in it because of its popularity was all i was saying..but would be cool if someone would u know! thx for the reply :good:
