[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Steev43230:
Which model is the unlocked international version

Post deleted - wrong thread
[Android General] amy520:
Recently, i found a very amazing smartphone from China, it's Star K550, when i see the look, i was attracted by the similar look to Doogee DG2014 or Leagoo lead 1. Maybe it looks more similar to the Leagoo lead 1, because they both have 5.5inch IPS screen. Most importantly, Star K550 is much cheaper than leagoo lead 1 and Doogee dg2014.

MTK6582 Quad core 1.3Ghz with low power

Powerful MTK6582, quad core, 1.3GHz processor, high-performance, low-power-cost and perfect system architected, makes the CPU efficiency over two times improved

5.5 Inch 960 * 540 Pixel QHD IPS Screen

5.5inch IPS screen provided you the large viewing or better video watching , even when you play 3D games, you can also enjoy the large screen. QHD 960*540 Screen resolution is also enough for me to watch movies clearly. If it's higher screen resolution, it will be better.

1GB Ram 8GB Rom

In view of the internal memory, the RAM 1GB and ROM 8GB is the standard match for a mid-range smartphone, of course, you can also buy an external TF card to expand your storage. For me, i just install some useful apps in my phone. RAM 1GB is also good for me.

Latest Android4.4 kitkat OS

Latest Android 4.4 KitKat, makes the functions fully optimized and brings safe and convenient using experience. The latest android system is really nice, i must have to say! Run faster, operate much easier.

Dual Cameras with Flashlight

5.0MP front camera, 13.0MP back camera. Support HDR, Panorama, face beauty mode and smiling faces automatically detected.

2200mAh Battery

Star K550 has 2200mAh battery, it can be used for 7--8 hours if i always use it to watch videos. But if i just chat or read some news on it, the standy time is much optimistic. I guess I also can get a backup battery when i go to travel.

By the way, if anyone has got the ROM for it, please share with me. I also want to make my smartphone to update better!

It seems identical to Lead 1 (that I bought) except display model (lower resolution but same inches).

[HTC One X] slick601:
I've got an HTC One X/Endeavoru handset which is experiencing random mobile network drops. Drops occur with no discernable pattern, sometimes while using data and sometimes while not interacting with the phone. There is no messae displayed regarding sim removal like other posters in the forum I have seen. I finally managed to get a logcat of the error, see attachment. I can't post a pastebin link since I'm a newb, apparently.

Phone is running Cyanogenmod 11 M9, but the issue has persisted since I had M6 installed. Disconnection occurs once every few hours, and to resolve the issue I simply enable airplane mode and disable data, then immediately enable data and disable airplane mode. In my testing, both are required to reset the connection. This issue kicks me completely off the network, disabling mobile data and GSM/voice connection.

I have prepended ** on a couple of lines on the log where the issue seems to begin; anyone have any input as to possible causes/solutions?

Thanks!

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeafScribe:
What could possibly poison an Epic 4G's system speed across the stock ROM and 2 custom ROMs?

Like this...

I'm on my second Epic 4G, got a used one off eBay about a month ago when the screen on my first one died.

On my first one, I rooted it, upgraded to Clean GB, then eventually moved it to cm-10.1.3.1.

The used one came stock, but ran extremely slowly. No problem - I've seen that happen before with my old phone (I call it sloth mode) and knew that installing a new ROM would resolve it. Just to be conservative, I bumped it up along the same path I did before, Clean GB, then cm-10-1.3.1.

Here's the thing. After installing a new ROM, both phones would operate normally. But no matter which ROM ran on the old phone and the replacement, *eventually* it would slip back into sloth mode. I don't mean sluggish, I mean crawling, even during the bootup animation. Even the CWM recovery menu was sluggish.

When I ran Clean GB on the replacement phone, I didn't add more than 2 or 3 apps to it after installing. But it still fell back to sloth mode after about a week of use. After installing cm-10.1.3.1, it only lasted a 3-4 days before sloth mode returned.

Before changing ROMs, I routinely did a factory reset, cleared cache and Dalvik cache.

Of course a virus is a possibilty, but having security apps installed and running didn't seem to make any difference. Could this be a rootkit-class issue?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Could it be a failing processor? I had one that went into that mode and never came back...no matter what it would take 20 times longer to boot...boot animation was like beyond slow motion. Best thing to do at this point is to just odin stock and leave it that way for a week...no extra apps or restore and see how it does.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeafScribe:
Worth a try...

Yeah, it's worth a try. I've also wondered if I slipped up and installed a version of Clean GB or cm-10-1.3.1 that jumped betweeen MTD and BML file formats. I know it could cause problems, but I don't know if it could cause the specifc trouble I had.

Phone's been parked in a drawer for a month since I posted the question. Will odin back to stock and see how it works out.

[LG G Flex] duecefromcleveland:
So i can flash roms on 4.4.2 i can downgrade to 4.2.2 and flash roms and i can make a 4.4.2 backup and restore it.. my question goes out to playfulgod or garret....im not new to rooting and flashing ive been at it since motorola triumph i want to start contributing.... how can i get the roms from the other varients to d959 like garrets miui rom
[LG G Flex] mattwheat:
You can not flash jack s#!+ on 4.4.2. No custom recovery. The best thing you can do is work on porting 4.2.2 jelly bean Roma till we get custom recovery on 4.4.2. Kernel issue and boot loader has us at a stand still on 4.4.2 right now. But 4.2.2 is wide open. Build away.
[LG G Flex] duecefromcleveland:
hmm thats intersting ive been flashing back and forth from 4.4.2 kk and 4.2.2 using freedom flex......on kk when i use freedom flex it gives me a warning that im attempting to use freedom flex but i just do it and it takes me to my recovery then i flash the stock 4.2.2 rom and then i can flash what i want
[LG G Flex] mattwheat:
Yeah you can do that once and have to downgrade to 4.2.2 but you can't flash anything else on 4.4.2. Nothing. You know .... You only get to boot to recovery one time. And you betta have Dfuse's 4.2.2 Rom. Or you'll boot loop and have to use the LG flash tool and we all know how pleasant that is.

And yeah you can flash all you want once back on 4.2.2. I keep a flash drive with my FLEX THIS themed version, dfuse's, and kit Kat. Just incase I screw something up I can sideload or adb what I need.
[LG G Flex] duecefromcleveland:
Yes im already comftorbale and knowledgeable about that my only questions was what can i do to get the miui rom on my d959 and i only seen three roms that we can flash
[General Questions and Answers] MUFC17JW:
I have an aunt who is visiting me in America for a month. She will be going back in few weeks and she is interested in purchasing a note 3 in America since it's cheaper. Question is.. is it possible to use US based phones work in korea? Which carrier Note 3 would work the best?
[General Questions and Answers] Planterz:
In theory, the phone should "work", as long as you can get it unlocked from the carrier. They should all have quad-band GSM, so you should be able to get data too. LTE is a different matter though. South Korea providers use bands 1, 3, 5, and 8. Both the AT&T and T-Mobile Note 3s support band 5, but that's the only one, and the Sprint and Verizon ones don't support any of those bands. SK Telecom and LG U+ use band 5, but SK Telecom also uses band 3 and LG U+ uses band 1, so your aunt might not get full LTE coverage if they use those other bands to fill gaps or something - but I really can't guess.

http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...nter-operable-other-networks.html#post3079209

How much does a Note 3 cost in South Korea (USD equivalent)? Because you can get a "international" Note 3 32GB (N9005) from eBay or Amazon for $550-560. It supports LTE on bands 1, 3, 5, 8, and 20. So while she's in the US, she could pick up a pre-paid SIM from T-Mobile or AT&T (not Sprint or Verizon) or one of their MVNOs and use it in her new phone. She won't get LTE, but she will get 3G. If you're in a city, I'd recommend going with a T-Mobile MVNO (MetroPCS, for example), since they have a very strong 3G/HSPA+ network. But more importantly, it'll work on all the bands in South Korea, regardless of carrier.

[General Questions and Answers] Pawprints1986:
Ok, so off and on I have been doing some looking around on how to move things from teh internal storage to the external.

Then I had a question.

I know that these programs create an "image" i guess of the stuff that is supposed to be on the internal making the system think its still there. With the mount and this "image" taking up "space" - are you ever able to actually make the device think you have freed up space and install more things?? Does it really actually make any sense to do any of these things?

I played around with a few in directory bind, and while my external availability number changed, my internals didnt. i checked both with the binds active and disabled. the numbers were exactly the same.

At first i was thinking that maybe you would have to temporarily unbind one thing (to remove the image from the internal) and install the new thing, create a new bind for the new thing, and then renable both the old and new things.... but with the internal numbers not changing even with binds off (stuff only on external) this doesnt make sense either.

has anyone run into this and found a solution??

Sorry to bump an old thread. But I'm definitely getting this.

I'd been using my OPO for Hangouts video chat over H/H+ network, with a fairly strong signal. I noticed afterwards that around the camera area it was just about bearable to touch.

Just recently when using hangouts for video chat, it will get to a certain point and turn off the phone. I presume this is a safety shutdown because of heat. It's happened three or four times over the past week.

Think I'm going to have to take the plunge and either factory reset ... OR try a different ROM. (Currently on Stock).

What do you guys think?
[General Questions and Answers] Planterz:
My Sony Ericsson C905A (AT&T variant). It was a pretty unique phone, being one of the first to have an 8mp camera, and also sported a xenon flash, so you could take proper photos at night. I took some pretty nifty pictures with that "phone" back then, when most people were still using 1.3mp or 2.0mp camera phones.

It had its definite flaws. It required a proprietary connector to charge/sync, and used that connector with an adapter to use headphones or aux audio jack (which it didn't #$^%ing come with). It also used Sony's Micro M2 instead of microSD, which cost quite a bit more.

In addition to loving that camera/phone, it was a gateway device for me. Back then, for me a phone was just a phone. Texting too, of course. I rolled my eyes at iPhone and BlackBerry users that needed to stay connected all the time. But part of the deal when buying that phone was it was only $50 on-contract ($350 off) if I signed up for the internet option (which didn't use "data"), which was $15/mo, for 6 months. So basically, paying $140 for the phone, then I'd cancel the internet. But soon I realized that having internet/email in my pocket was extremely handy, even on that dinky, low-res screen, so I kept for the life of the phone.

Unfortunately, the life of the phone was barely over a year, after somehow the LCD cracked and started bleeding (no idea how, I never dropped the phone). When I called for a warranty replacement, they no longer offered that phone, and tried to pawn off some Samsung slider with a paltry 2.0mp camera. I explained that the reason I bought that phone, and in fact switched from Verizon to AT&T was to get that phone. So I was offered a Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, which had literally came out the day before - simply because it also had an 8mp camera. I thought there was no way I would be offered that phone, but when they did, I said "uh...yeah. Sure."

That Xperia X10 was great at first, but slowly died (despite being given a brand new one, not a refurb), and its replacement died a quicker death. But it was my first smartphone, and I've never regretted getting into Android.
