[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CalculatedRisk:
CellPhoneForever

Hey,

A quick google search of the company that sold the phone came up with a blog dedicated to saying they are fake and a fraud.

http://cellphoneforeverfraud.wordpress.com/

I think the phone you received could be faked, but I cannot tell without having it physically. The p880 is the code for the Optimus 4X, so I'm sure that there is something fishy going on.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gu200123:
But which smartphone was in the box? P880 is a discontinued one, Optimus 4X.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CalculatedRisk:
I think he got a nexus 4 in the box (unsure if real or fake) but received P880 reading materials and packaging along with the nexus 4.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuromusha38:
I think that's it. Also the box is shorter as well, but sealed.

So I think they sealed themselves.

But why did they do that? Was the phone refurbished or something?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CalculatedRisk:
Can you confirm whether or not the phone is real?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuromusha38:
I can not tell if it's really or not because I do not have the first Nexus 4 with me at the moment to make a direct comparison. I'll upload some photo to my OP and see if you can tell me if it's real or fake.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CalculatedRisk:
Sounds like a good idea, I'll give it a shot, but let's also get the opinion of some more veteran Nexus 4 users :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuromusha38:
I have uploaded photos to

Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuromusha38:
can anybody help me identify if the phone is genuine or not?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 22sl22:
Hi,

Go to here http://www.imei.info

And do an IMEI check on the phone, *#06# and that website will give info about your device :good:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobgeneric:
Relax, pal! Your handset is genuine. Only the accessories are not Nexus 4 genuine. ;)

You bought a Chinese's version. It is a NEW OTHER item:

A new, unused item with absolutely no signs of wear. The item may be missing the original packaging, or in the original packaging but not sealed. The item may be a factory second or a new, unused item with defects. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.

On Google Play, sell US versions.

To confirm, try update to 4.4.3 from Google servers.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuromusha38:
Updates works. But the phone have dead pixels.

Also, the phone is listed as brand new, not new other.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobgeneric:
So you have a problem. Open a case on Resolution Center .

This seller Cellphoneforever sell refurbished items like "new one". I got problem like that when I bought XPERIA ARC S one.

Try buy items from Top-Rated Sellers.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuromusha38:
How did he manage to seal the box back? And the imei on the box matches the phone too.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobgeneric:
So, give a positive feedback and enjoy yourself. ;)

I've installed the AKU 3.2 Rom recently and when booting, my Universal nog shows a screen that wasy "Windows Mobile - Direct Push Technology". Has this something to do with push mail? What is it?

Also, "push mail" seems something people are very fond of in these forums, so I'm curious what it is and what I can do with it (and how).

[General Questions and Answers] swarlesbarkely:
I have a basic init.d script I made...

#!/system/bin/sh

fstrim /data;

fstrim /system;

fstrim /cache;

and I know it runs because I threw on a test mkdir at the end and it worked.

But after a reboot if I run fstrim -v for /data or /system in a terminal, I still get quite a few bytes trimmed. Is there anyway to run fstrim -v in the init.d script and output it to a txt file so I can confirm it works as intended?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Dougmeister:
I had no problem using QBKing77's guide to root my S3. I looked for the comparable thread when I got my S4.

I loaded up Odin but got an error saying there was no PIT partition. I put the phone into debug mode (not in the instructions?) and it seemed to work.

But then it failed half-way through. I was plugged into a USB port on the front of the computer.

Now I get the error "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."

I searched and found other threads for the S3 and other phones but would appreciate some help with the S4. Thanks.

Edit: are these the steps I need to take?

Edit #2: Uh, I guess those steps won't work since they will prompt me for a serial number and there doesn't seem to be a way to get that from a Galaxy S4 if it won't boot.

Help?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] nxtech3:
Does the phone boot into download mode? Have you tried flashing the stock firmware through ODIN?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Dougmeister:
When it boots, it goes straight to the error. If I hold volume down + Home, it *will* go into download mode.

I didn't know what to flash with ODIN.

After the fiasco with the attempted rooting, I didn't want to chance flashing the wrong thing.

Thanks for the reply.

Edit: Can someone post step-by-step directions on how to flash stock firmware through Odin? (Or the link to the thread that probably already exists)

Preferably with a link to the exact ROM/firmware that I need?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] garwynn:
Look for CF-Auto-Root for jfltespr. That will get you rooted but will trip your Knox counter.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Dougmeister:
I have this file already downloaded: CF-Auto-Root-jfltespr-jfltespr-sphl720

I started Odin 3.07 ("Run as administrator") and loaded the file in the PDA slot. I waited for "<OSM> Leave CS.." to appear in the "Message" box. I hooked up the Galaxy S4 but the COM port will not show up... trying different cables now... (it is plugged into the back of the computer...)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] garwynn:
That's it. Make sure it's the current one and flash in PDA slot using Odin.

Will reboot, apply root, reboot back to stock and voila!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Dougmeister:
I can't get ODIN to recognize the S4 via the USB slot ("ID:COM" port stays blank). I even re-installed the S4 drivers. Any ideas?

I've tried 3 different cables, all plugged into the back.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] garwynn:
Not to sound silly but did you reboot into download mode?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Dougmeister:
Not a silly question at all. I've been known to do that ;)

But no, this time I was in "download mode". For some reason, it finally worked with one of the cables using a front USB port. (?)

Thanks for everyone's help. Crisis averted. :o
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] r0ckstar:
I've had dicey situations using download mode just like you've described on 2 different gs4's. I use heimdall, not odin, but same flakey results. The gs4's download mode appears to be very finicky about the quality of the usb cable and port. I never had any issue with download mode with identical hardware when I used to flash my gs2. So it's not you, it's the gs4. I finally got some reasonably reliable and consistent flashing results by using the usb ports on the back, and a high quality blackberry usb cable. In my case, the "bad" ports on the front are usb1.1, while the ports on the back are usb 2.0. So it seems to matter when flashing the gs4. So I would say avoid using usb 1.1 ports if your computer is old enough to have them.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] prezmater:
I bought an HTC One from a friend of a friend and everything worked fine the first day then today it started rebooting randomly. I would like to take it back to complete stock firmware. It is currently s-on with the 1.55 hboot and bootloader is unlocked. I need someone to explain what exactly I need to do to get back to stock. I saw an RUU but it said I must be on hboot 1.56 and I have no idea how to do that.

Thanks in advance.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] StormyNight:
Was it rooted? If it was, did it have SuperSU installed?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] prezmater:
Yeah it's rooted and I have SuperSU.

Try this Tutorial - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2503646

I *Think* that RUU 3.04.651.2 will work on 1.55 as 4.xx is for 1.56 Hboot, however I am fairly new to M7 Inner workings - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2508907

So proceed with caution.

Props to BD619 for a great tutorial
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] prezmater:
Thank you, can anyone confirm that this 3.04.651.2 RUU will work for me?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] StormyNight:
Don't know if you're still interested in doing this, but flash http://download.chainfire.eu/450/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.00.zip in recovery and it might fix your rebooting problem.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] prezmater:
Thanks, I went ahead and went back to bone stock though. I am fatigued when it comes to customizing my phone's. I even kept my Nexus 5 stock after about a month.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] fryguy503:
Did the RUU work for you? Or did you use another method?

I was able to do multiple widgets on my (pattern-secured) lockscreen on 4.3 via an xposed module, however it looks like the author of that module didn't update it for kitkat.

I am right handed, however if I could just have the buttons on the left side of the phone when rotating I would be so happy... Any idea if this is possible?
[XDA Assist] Hazarath:
So, wanted a keyboard-based phone, and I found one. I love how it feels, and how it operates, less three minor things. Well, kinda major, really.

Firstly, I have a overly-aggressive correction thingy when I type. My last phone would, say, if I type 'Haha' and it replaces it with 'Here', all I have to do is touch the backspace once, and it would correct itself, and restore the 'Haha' back, and I just touch space, and keep on typing.

This thing is evil. Instead of letting me, for instance type 'here', it would replace it automaticly with 'he're'. [Is that even a word?] It would -not- correct in the method I described above. I would -have- to go to setting>Input>Dictionaries>Add a word thingy to get it to keep 'here'.

The main thing I need to accomplish is making it so the replacing 'aggression', I would assume, is toned down. I know I could simply disable it, and all, but, I sometimes need the extra help, haha.

That's the first issue.

The second one, is that right by the 'A' button on the keyboard, there is a key that's a shortcut to this 'QuickMemo' uselessness. I have to hit back, and then resume typing, hopefully not hitting the button again. [And I say this, 'cause I have hit it a few times in one reply. x.x]

And, finally, when I get an SMS reply, it likes to show an IM-like window over whatever it is I am doing. It's more of just a minor thing that I -could- live with, assuming the other two issues could be resolved.

Any help would be appreciated!

Hi,

I'm sorry but we haven't thread for your LG model.

I have two suggesrtions:

1st => Go to

General discussion > Questions and Answers

and post your request.

2st => try to change your keyboard apk - you can try Swiftkey or Swipe. and stop to use your native keyboard ;)

Good luck
[XDA Assist] Hazarath:
..you want me to not use my physical keyboard? Sorry, just trying to make sure I am understanding what you are recommending.
[XDA Assist] Sib64:
It was suggestion, but I know that a lot of users who have a physical keyboard prefer this type of keyboard that the other as Swiftkey ...

I haven't got any suggestions except to post your problem to Q&A forum (1st link)
[XDA Assist] Sib64:
Do you use Auto-correct on your keyboard,?

If yes, simply turn-off ;)

Suggestion from one of my colleague XDA Team Assist [MENTION=4425071]PulseDroid[/MENTION]
[XDA Assist] Hazarath:
I appreciate the reply, and your time you took into your post, however, I am trying to find an alternative to that. Again, I sometimes am not the best typer, so, I need some help sometimes.

I will, however, post on the forum as suggested.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] jaredmorgs:
Since 4.4.3 was released, I've had issues with HIDs like Keyboards and PS3 controllers working reliably.

The devices get a key lock issue, and result in repeeeeeeeeeeeated keystrokes, or just no keystrokes depending on when the Bluetooth stream from the device freezes.

For the record, I am not a ROM developer. I do know you can make a flashable zip fairly easily, as described in a few threads here on XDA.

I'm trying to work out whether it would be possible to create a flashable ZIP of just the bluetooth components from Android 4.4.2 and flash those over a 4.4.3 or 4.4.4 ROM.

My thinking is that flashing the previously working bluetooth components would fix the issue, and restore stabilty to the OS.

I'd be very interested for opinions from ROM devs whether this approach could work, or whether loading a previous versions' bluetooth stack would cause more instability.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Clark Joseph Kent:
Pleeeeeeease read the Forum Rules on posting as this does not belong in the Development section, thank you.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] jaredmorgs:
My apologies.

For the record, I did read the stickied post in this forum, but didn't realise questions *about* development were not welcome in the Development forum because I didn't read down far enough when it finally got to the Categories definitions. Maybe this should be promoted up the list a bit in the stickied post? There's a lot of information to parse in that sticky for a first-time reader.

Mods, please feel free to move to N7 2013 Q&A (I take it this is the correct place?)

Again my apologies for the mistake.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] jaredmorgs:
For the record, I think I might have resolved this issue.

In Android 4.4, there is a setting in Wi-Fi for Power Saving. Turn this feature off and the issues with key repeats and pauses disappear.
