[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] @rbiter:
Att m8 doesn't have 3. Att mostly uses 4 and 17 and some places 5. I don't know the other details. You should be fine on hspa though. Great signal, decent speed except when congested, I.e. a big city, should be fine in smaller cities and suburbs. Does hong Kong version support aws hspa? Tmobile's hspa network is loads better as far as speeds and sometimes latency is decent if not congested. Problem with T-Mobile though is it doesn't penetrate walls and buildings very well though they have gotten a lot better in Houston and surrounding areas lately.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Anthonyhytong:
m8 hong kong version doesn't support aws(1700MHz/2011MHz ?) hspa [I believe, except T mobile, no other carriers support this band]. Hong Kong version m8 supports 850/900/1900/2100MHz hspa and hspa+. If I cannot use LTE, is it OK for me to only use hspa? Because I will use phone to watch a little bit of videos and for most of the times, I use it for reading some news, email and other information only with words and picture, can hspa satisfy it?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] @rbiter:
You should be fine with hspa. At%t's hspa network is pretty robust as far as coverage and penetration. Your more worrying problem would be speed. At doesn't have many places that go over ~10Mb/s and that is usually at night. During peak times expect 1-5mb/s in the city.

[Nexus 5 General] raventothepowerofpi:
The specs I can see in the second gen nexus 5 is a:

5.1 inch QHD IPS LCD screen

K1 64bit processor

3GB RAM

2800MAh battery

16GB 32GB and later on a 64GB of internal storage one

The first Nexus with a sd card slot since the Nexus One

13mp back camera and 2mp front

Android L 64bit
[Nexus 5 General] ChronoReverse:
And they might call it.. the Nexus 6!
[Nexus 5 General] raventothepowerofpi:
Lol I doubt that unless it will be around 6 inches which I can't see happening unless it will have a 5.5 inch screen.
[Nexus 5 General] saifullah90:
5 mp front
[Nexus 5 General] crisis_trustee:
I like it!

But I'd like to offer not less 3000MAh battery and 5,5 inch QHD IPS LCD screen.

Also it is nessesary not less 5mp front camera and FM tuner.
[Nexus 5 General] raventothepowerofpi:
Anything could happen but truthfully I am basing this on how nobody could figure out what would happen with the Nexus 5 and had a lot less specs than most rumors yet still has amazing performance and the battery life is pretty good for it's size because of it being pure Android. An FM radio chip would be amazing but in order for that to work they would have to ship earbuds with the device which I do not see happening.
[Nexus 5 General] svengalis:
more then likely it will be a 2500MAh battery and 2GB of RAM and also not worth upgrading. google always puts ****ty batteries in their phones.
[Nexus 5 General] raventothepowerofpi:
Eh, they are really good with battery optimization so they don't usually need a big battery, why I said 2800mah instead if 3000mah+ and said 3gb of ram because they wouldn't make a 3rd one with 2gb of ram I would assume, but then again Samsung did that with the S5.
[Nexus 5 General] Ltdrev:
No please keep it cheap to buy!
[Nexus 5 General] raventothepowerofpi:
It'll probably stay 350 USD unless the lowest memory version is 32gb then it will likely be 400 USD lol
[Nexus 5 General] Ltdrev:
Just hope they don't start adding too much bells n whissles like Sumsumg, Soony and other LGg's products...
[Nexus 5 General] raventothepowerofpi:
It doesn't matter how much they add as long as they keep the good price, the other stuff it just a plus ;)

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elfblackdeath:
On trying to update (stock, not rooted SM-T310 device) it went into a bootloop and I CAN NOT access recovery. I can still get into download mode. I've attempted to flash the stock firmware for 4.2.2 using Odin, but it fails. I've also attempted to flash another recovery, ODIN reads it as a success but I still can't get into Recovery mode.

Any suggestions? Or is the device a complete brick now?
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tekkin:
Thats is no problem,you must use the 4.4.2 Stock ROM with Odin and the Download Modus,after that should everythink be ok.The 4.2.2 is not working.

You can download it from here

On Odin it seems to fail right after "NAND Write Start!!"
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ergalthema:
This is the first time I've ever rooted an Android device. The process has been fraught with uncertainty and misinformation from around the internet. I'd like to describe what I have come to understand is the current preferred method, and ask a few questions to hopefully get my S5 where I want it to be.

I don't want to do anything to crazy (yet, anyway). I just want to remove some bloat and get the notification panel as close to vanilla Android as possible.

So far, I have ran towelroot, which was incredibly simple.

I installed SuperSU from the Play Store. During installation, it got stuck at "Disabling KNOX...". I have since learned that this is common and a reboot usually fixes it. However, I have also learned that I probably don't want to disable KNOX yet anyway, since I am not going to flash a custom ROM until there is one that is known to be stable and is able to create the vanilla Android experience that I want. Some people said that I should have installed SuperSU from chainfire's page instead of the Play Store, but I think that was old information.

Edit: I'm editing these steps as I go along:

1. Install busybox and the Safestrap APK

2. Use Safestrap to set up a new ROM slot and use that slot from now on (consider the italics a strikethrough)

^Even though the instruction video on the Safestrap page said this, apparently that's not what most people do. They use Safestrap to make a nandroid backup, and then use only one slot, the stock ROM slot, to experiment or flash a new ROM.

3. Install Titanium Backup

Edit: I also had to install SD KitKat Fixer and then reboot afterward to allow TB to write to the SD card...

4. Use Titanium Backup to backup all apps and data to SD card

5. Use Titanium to freeze processes that I carefully choose

Edit: I froze everything from the list here.

6. Install Xposed framework

7. Find the modules to customize Android how I want

Does that sound right? Any tips/advice?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcollier:
By doing this, you are rooted.

Even if you are not going to flash a custom rom, you can and probably should disable KNOX. Doing so will not trip the counter.

Install busybox and the Safestrap APK - This is indeed necessary if you want to install another ROM to customize. The whole point of safestrap is to flash ROMs and is not related to rooting itself. The other use of Safestrap is to create a complete backup of your current system so that if you mess something up, you can restore to a known, working state.

Use Safestrap to set up a new ROM slot and use that slot from now on - This is fine if you want to switch between ROMs. I know some people like to do this, but I am not one of them.

Install Titanium Backup - absolutely

Use Titanium to freeze processes that I carefully choose - correct and there are threads with lists of APKs to freeze. You will also want to make sure you freeze SDM so that it doesn't prompt for security updates.

Use Titanium as a backup? (not sure about this) - this is to backup your apps, texts, things like that but NOT your ROM

Install Xposed framework

Find the modules to customize Android how I want
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ergalthema:
The first step in installing Xposed in this thread is to do a nandroid backup. I'm not totally sure what that is, but someone in another thread said implied that Safestrap essentially does the same thing. That is why I was planning to use Safestrap.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcollier:
That is what I meant by this: "The other use of Safestrap is to create a complete backup of your current system so that if you mess something up, you can restore to a known, working state."

A nandroid is a backup image of your system so that you can restore it if you screw something up. Safestrap isn't "essentially" doing the same thing, it is doing exactly that thing. Safestrap is a way to make a custom recovery work on our phone without an unlocked bootloader.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ergalthema:
I didn't know it wouldn't trip the counter. I'm curious why I should disable it though.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ergalthema:
I followed the video exactly and when I get to the point of the first Restore (around 9:00), it says "Restore Complete - Failed". There is a button to Reboot System. When I tap that, the phone won't turn on. I have to pull the batter to get it back on. I guess I'll be uninstalling Safestrap. If I "Uninstall Recovery" from the stock ROM slot, will the space be freed up again and the phone be returned to the same state as before I tried using Safestrap?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zoandroid:
May I ask what it is that you are restoring? Have you already made a (nandroid) backup? That's what the restore function is made to restore. If you tried to use Restore on some other kind of file, then it would try to overwrite your ROM (OS) with it, and make the phone unusable. If that happens, I think your only fix would be to Odin back to stock and start over from scratch. I believe there is a link to do that in the thread telling how to root the S5.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ergalthema:
The video at 9:00 explains it. I think it is basically flashing the backup I made of the stock ROM to the newly created ROM slot in order to begin running from the new ROM slot.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zoandroid:
Oh, OK. Since there aren't any ROMs available yet, I did not pursue that aspect of Safestrap. So you have stepped outside my range of experience with it. Hopefully someone else can help you.

If you get to a point in your endeavors where you find a solution to apply ad-blocking to the S5, please let me know in a PM. I've had no luck so far. It appears this will be yet another issue that will only be solved with some creative developer work. Google has done something in KitKat to block not only apps like Ad-Aware and Adblock Plus from working, they also seem to have some kind of snooper utility that, if you try to search online with the S5 for ad blocking, will pop up a browser page saying Google "cannot access" the page! Pages which my PCs can see easily. Crafty little PITAs for sure! I thought it might just be Chrome doing this, so when I tried to get Firefox from the Store, I was stuck in an endless downloading loop. I had to kill that and restore a copy from TIBU. They are doing everything they can think of to lock down a smartphone and spoon feed us only what THEY want us to see. Including copious advertisements.

There was a time when Android meant "freedom". I guess that time has passed. Now it is time for someone else with very deep pockets to re-kindle a hassle-free smartphone OS. It is a shame. Android has so much potential. :(
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shoresteve626:
Why flash the stock ROM in a newly created ROM slot? You should only create a ROM slot if you decide to run a custom ROM. If not, you can use safestrap to create the backup (nandroid) and save it to your SD card so you always have a "safe" restore point essentially. I run a custom ROM in my stock slot. And for the record... There are several ROMs in the development section which are quite stable. Also, you can check out the Safestrap thread there as well. If you read through the thread you'll have a better understanding of how it works and what bugs there are right now.

The thing that I find great about XDA is that folks will always try to help each other out. Good luck!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zoandroid:
Do we have a thread where folks are reporting having tried various versions of the available ROMs for the Verizon S5, and can make a simple statement about what works and what doesn't? I think that would be a really good idea. Without something like that, the only way to really know which ones are trouble free is to slog through and read each and every post on every ROM thread, most of which will usually be outdated information anyway.

Maybe it could be done as a Poll so it doesn't grow into something just as long to read as the above.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ergalthema:
That would be great - especially for the people who aren't on this site all day and don't know what is good and current.

I'm realizing that's probably what most people do. In the instructional video posted on the main Safestrap OP, it instructed to keep the original stock slot intact, and use a new slot for experimenting with another ROM. I would love to know a stable ROM that gives the most vanilla Android.
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] poil2000:
I was on school and my phone was charging and i play on it and it shutdown and after i try to boot it it shows samsung logo for 1 second than repeat this for eternity.Help me it has no recovery,no charge only dmode,emergency dload mode.
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Galaxy_Rohit:
Once u go in download mode (Volume down & Home & Power keys together), u will never able to access recovery mode (Home & Power keys together). So, u have to flash the stock firmware(preferably the one which u got pre-installed from factory/shop) via Odin v4.42. U can flash gingerbread & if phone bootloops then go in recovery mode(yes, u will have recovery mode after flashing via Odin v4.42) & wipe data/factory reset. In recovery mode use volume up/down keys to navigate up/down...Home key to select anything...& Back key to go to previous menu.

After wiping data(in recovery), select "reboot system now" to switch on the phone. I'm 99.9% sure that ur phone will be back to normal.:)

But if u r among 0.1% users & ur phone still doesn't show the home screen, then flash froyo firmware. Froyo has 4 files so, now, after flashing froyo via Odin v4.42, go to recovery again & wipe data, then reboot ur phone & it will be switched on...100% guaranteed:D.

Thing to notice is that, ur pc should be free from any software/hardware malfunctioning & u should know the correct procedure of flashing firmwares via Odin(for galaxy fit) & in case u don't, u can mention here...;)
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] poil2000:
Can you please give me the froyo firmware?
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Galaxy_Rohit:
U can download firmwares at sammobile.com. Just create ur account & then u can download.

Btw what's ur country/region? & mention ur exact model no. coz some phones have 'i' or 'L' appended to GT-S5670 (like GT-S5670L). So, be extremely careful...
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] poil2000:
no is not fixed

I do what you said but is the same like the first time no boot no charge only download

[Moto X Q&A] NevEragon:
Would it be possible for me to duplicate the system+data and everything on my Moto X and write it to the new one that I just received from a warranty return? I have them both for a couple days and I do not want to have to go through all the crap I did to get my phone's system partition writable and rooted again. I am just not sure how to go about it. I have tried googling, but I have not come up with anything useful. Thanks for the help.

Edit: I want to make a ROM of my current phone, and flash it to my new phone.
[Moto X Q&A] Darth:
Titanium backup can do something like that....but I don't know much about it. I tried it once, it didn't work on the same phone. Lol. I probably did it wrong.

Anyway, I've read about people doing things like this, and honestly, they all usually have issues. Simply transferring a nandroid to PC and to new phone may or may not work....don't backup or restore efs in any way tho. That's the main issue. You don't want to mess with the new phones EFS folder....or you could end up with a paperweight.

The easiest thing to do, that has little risk, is backup with titanium backup. Transfer the backup folder to PC. Then install titanium backup to new device and transfer the backup folder over to the same spot on new phone. Your apps and data can be restored then. Most should work fine.

Or course, anything you try will require a rooted phone.

Tho check out Helium....never used it, but apparently it will backup non rooted phones. Then follow what I said about titanium backup above...but with helium.

Personally... To me, new phone should have a fresh start. That's just me tho. :)

---------- Post added at 04:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:09 PM ----------

Again....yes....to do anything to system for sure or use a "rom" or nandroid you create....you need root and custom recovery.

Smashed my phone's screen back in march and only just got it fixed the other day. One of the first things I did was upgrade to the latest purity ROM, based on 4.4.4.

I am getting terrible battery life, only about 2-2.5 hours screen on time over 12 hours and it's dead - thats mostly on wifi with about 30 mins on spotify. I have google now switched on, but location reporting off. Brightness at 50%. Hellscore kernel.

Is this a known issue or is there something up with my phone??

Thanks.

Have you checked your wakelocks using better battery stats, gsam, or wakelock detector? I think that you wakelocked by something.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCody:
The nexus 4 is known for its terrible batterie life. ;)

I am on cm11 and matr1x kernel and it runs for about 4 hours with 3 hours screen on time. I am surfing the internet right now, listen to music and doing whatsapp a little bit.

If you have newly flashed your rom, you should let your phone settles for a couple of days. The batterie is always worse after flashing a new rom. :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
not true. VERY not true. its your own setup that's destroying your battery. battery life is mainly determined by how you yourself use your device, how you ser it up, which apps you use, and very much your data/phone signal. i, personally see 5-5.5h screen on time every day, witjout disabling anything, and on lte. hows that horrible battery life? learn to set up your phone, or change your rom/kernel. the n4 is not known for horrible battery life. and battery life isnt generally worse after flashing a rom. where you get your information from is all based on speculation, not on truth.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCody:
I am sorry. It is just, compared to other devices the nexus 4 is rather under the average. I myself am very satisfied with about 4 hours screen on time. I dont know how you could even get 5 and more. So, master, if you would kindly share your wisdom with us, we would be very glad. ;)

But lte and nexus 4? That screams after horrible battery life, but tell me your story.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fredcorp6:
Would you mind sharing how you've set it up? Not sure where I'm going wrong.. I use very few apps and have set syncing to a minimum. Are you on 4.4.4? I've read somewhere that there is a battery bug in 4.4.4
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
I'm on L at the moment, was on 444. I've never ever heard of a battery bug in 444. the one thing that will decide the battery life of your device, that you don't have control of, is your data/phone quality. it can make a phone get great battery, or keep it at worse battery life no matter what you do. the quality can make or break battery life. also, I've found that I get much better battery life on lte as opposed to 3G/H+. with H+, I see around 4h sot no matter what, with lte I see around 5h sot. also, screen brightness can make a big

difference. I normally keep my brightness at about 25%. if I raise it to 50%, I'll get about 45 minutes to an hour less in screen on time.

I know the info is here somewhere but I always have a hard time finding the info I need here. I have 4.3, rooted it and had a ROM running. Whole reason I wanted to root was because my phone performs terribly. Loses power when its plugged in, no signal where I work(my iphone gets 2-3 bars) but rooting nor a ROM helped my problem.

You should just use Odin to to back to stock. It's fast and simple. You can use the Android unified toolkit (easy to find on google) and it walks your through it.
