[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
What OP posted doesn't really apply to large businesses. Between KNOX and other third party equivalents sensitive data is sandboxed and doesn't rely on the core B2C version of the OS to protect it. As much as Google may see Android's potential in the business environment no one I know in IT at a bunch of Fortune 1K companies is looking at mobile OS's (either Android or iOS) to replace desktop/laptops as "standard" issue. Tablet and smartphone apps have niche opportunities (commercial pilot manuals and logs, flight attendant passenger service tools, gate agent/hotel staff roaming terminals, sales people inventory access, remote staff automated forms, etc.) but migrating the entire enterprise to mobile architecture just doesn't make sense. So Android can't lose anything it never had and, outside Google's wishes, isn't seriously considered for. The lack of Chromebook adoption by the enterprise demonstrates their disinterest.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Zeab:
Not sure if I totally agree with the application only being a niche market. I work for a call center and find that the tablets are becoming an indispensable tool. We have people walking the floor with these devices and using them to keep track of various statistics as well as using them to report potential issues. The ability to pull up data about current client information to respond in an almost instant manner has shaped things drastically. Having a sandbox is really great for protecting certain information, such as email, etc.. but can not protect the device data in flux, such as web browser content. If the system is compromised and access to the file system is obtained then all the data previously obtained becomes available to the attacker. Some measure can be made such as requiring Citrix as your primary form of connectivity but you are only pushing the security back to another device. The focus of this article was to point out the shortcomings of the this tablet as it pertains to the lack of updates.

Don't get me wrong, I truly love Android and will continue to use it as a personal device. However, there is no way I can risk releasing these devices into a production environment without the proper support. And yes, I blame the manufacturer for release and forget, and I blame Android for not enforcing the manufactures to keep these update. It is crucial to both parties to work together and produce something that is not just desirable but maintained for a reasonable amount of time. If Android could come up with a way to provide updates to devices directly and bypass the manufacturer they would have an unbeatable platform.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] conan1600:
Anytime a serious security breach that can be used from without to effect changes on a device have come to light I have seen updates come out on all my tablets and phones, which is blessedly rare. Android does not operate in the way you are thinking. There is no need to constantly shove out security updates like windows. The system is pretty well secure unless you unsecure it yourself, new versions of the OS usually just add functions, however there is a current (when is there not?) RUMOR of a adobe bug on all versions of android lower than 4.0. Personally I still prefere windows for business simply because of ease of function and with baytrail cpu's and even more promising hardware coming this year I find no reason not to use windows for hard business needs if your business can benefit from tablet use. There are a plethora of cheap windows tablets coming and the current hp omni 10 is powerful enough to suit any light tablet buisness needs for just 299.00 if your business needs more power pay the premium for a surface pro with a full on i3,5,7 cpu fully capable of doing the work of a high end laptop. All that said, I feel Android is if anything more secure than a windows machine. Nothing comes in unless you invite it. Updates not needed until such time as Android can add base functionality in the realm of windows 7, and it is close imho.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] rabel111:
Check the trends

Have to agree with Zeab. The university I work for is now supporting apple mobile devices but not android. And despite my having pressured for some support, what support is was for android devices is disappearing. Why ?

Android from one device to the next is different enough to make support difficult if not impossible. Providing advice on connections to secure servers and use of common software falls foul of the same issue.

Android device manufacturers have attempted to sequester their market by creating difference, but all they'll achieve is failure. Add to that the early obsolescence they have engineered and android is dying, even as its market share grows!

We now as a family have windows, apple and android devices. If I include TVs and media devices the list lengthens. The only option that provides continuity of operating system and software, and longer term support with updates is Apple. Given the way Microsoft has gone off the rails with windows 8.1 (I really do believe that OSs should make my computing experience easier, not harder), I think we will be going Apple in the future.

Hi guys

I have this problem with my Z2 D6503. The Kingston 16GB Micro SD card suddenly died yesterday. The phone was right in front of my eyes and the yellow triangle popped up. After that, almost every time i press the power button to unlock my phone it takes too long (5-15 seconds) and even when the pattern screen appears it stays locked for a few seconds too.

How can i fix it?

Thanks for your help!

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hush66:
Yes, that's just erasing your internal storage. You should do a repair via PC Companion; this will reinstall the OS, so to speak.

Hey. I have a problem with my phone. Today at the morning I have opened the SNAPCHAT app (I'm beta tester in there) and my phone has been frozen after opening. I couldn't do anything so I restarted it by holding the power button. Phone has restarted but was frozen on the HTC ONE x logo, so I restarted again and the phone entered the BOOT MENU and was saying "LOCKED -- SECURITY WARNING" so I tried to reboot and nothing happened entered the same place to boot menu, so I pressed FACTORY RESET so nothing happened so I pressed FACTORY RESET and nothing happened again, so I restarted two times the phone and turned back on, but when the screen went black (sleep) it seems like the phone turned off, I'm charging it and nothing want to work, the LED light doesn't appear and I tried using the HOLD POWER BUTTON AND VOLUME BUTTON but doesn't work.

I am buying a used note 3 off ebay from a seller with 200k feedback. Do you think this is a good idea?

What are the pros and cons of buying it? It is listed as an A or excellent on a scale of A-F.

Since the note 3 itself is less than a year old, would I be able to take advantage of the warranty through samsung or no?

Anything to look for when I received it? If its bad I can just spend like $150 more for a new one off ebay.

I have bought from eBay in the past when in didn't have the cash for brand new. The key is just to your research, make sure its the model your after, is it n9005 or n9008? For example. Find out if Knox has been triggered on it etc. And if After all your questions your still not 100% sure then save up and buy new, least that way there is no chance of disappointment.

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sheppardzwc:
I've been on the phone with Verizon for almost half a day now trying to understand what's going on with my phone.

I lost my trusty Droid RAZR M at Carowinds this past week. After learning that no amount of begging, pleading, or promising of sexual favors will allow me to push my upgrade date up six months... I settled on getting the same phone I had for free, minus activation fees of course.

I got my new (well, old, really) Droid RAZR M Thursday night and after some initial headaches with it getting the SIM card activated it runs just like it did. But that's the problem... it won't allow me to update from 98.16.3.XT907.Verizon.en.US. Why is this a problem? Because I'm still suck on Android 4.1.2 when the KitKat release is just sitting out there, in the cloud somewhere, waiting to be pushed to my device...

Verizon's solution was to send me a brand new phone - not after having me perform two factory resets, of course.

My question is, I've found the firmware on droid-developers.org; is there any way I can push this to my phone and update it manually?

I'd appreciate any help with this... it's been a nightmare.

I want to flash a new ROM through saferecovery but I wipe the "system". When rebooting, saferecovery reminded me that "there is no system", but I ignored it...

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] jimyv:
stock?

Did you wipe the system on the stock slot or the slot one that you created ? If you wipe your stock slot which is a complete misuse of safestrap I am sorry but there currently is not a repair for that for this device . We are awaiting a unlocked boot loader to be able to flash anything to this device on the stock system (from brick state or fast boot). That is why it is advised not to mess with your stock system unless you are a very experienced super user . I am sorry but you are welcome to look around and see if there is any useful information here for you there are several pages in each section here . If you in fact created as a slot and are just boot looping on your slot try holding your power for over 20 seconds then release .
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] seekleiling:
Thanks for your reply! I had sought some cases like me but I obtained nil...As you say, the boot loader is not cracked yet and I know that too. Now I have sent it back to Amazon.

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] jimyv:
well

it's really not if you know exactly what you're doing . I would advise reading the biggest part of this whole forum though. At least reading the whole thread of which each MOD you wish to use . And with safestrap you never flash to the stock . You always create the slot and use the slot . That way if it Loop it loops directly back into safestrap . If you wipe stock system you wipe safestrap. That information is all in the safestrap thread. Along with any other problems any other user had and their possible fixes ..
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] seekleiling:
I don't have a stock

I did not have a stock, I just had a fire OS backup. So after I wiped the "system", there was no system (or a broken system) in it. I know a little about how system worked. Maybe safestrap recovery relys on a existed system to start. I need to enter safestrap to invoke my backup but the LOOP has a priority to start over the safestrap . I wanna know how to enter safestrap directly ,but there is no hot key like fastboot or download Mode. I think this is the crux of my problem.

Thank you anyway.
