[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlads:
So when i rooted my phone, my phone failed to even check for updates! All i'm saying about you is the fact that you tell every single person to search, although I get it, you are wasting your time, lastly you really can't call anybody annoying m8, I didn't characterize myself as annoying, what you do every single day is ridicule people for not using the search button you aren't even addressing me and i'm even tired of it.

This is Q+A, it's made for people to ask questions.

And about my post count, I think your math is off, I've been on XDA since 2010 (2007 actually different account) i'm on 3,658 posts, You've been on here for 1 year you have a third of my posts, so theoretically speaking and at the rate you sprout your posts, you will have surpassed my post count in less time than I did, for someone who attempts to sound smart you've had quite an oversight there.

Thanks, I wasn't able to update, I was speaking from my own experiences, and as I said to ffffffft there are over 5 million members on XDA, is he planning on warning everyone? There is a thread in every single section on XDA, telling people to search. I've been there and attempted to tell people to search, doesn't help, there will always be threads of the same question, telling noobs isn't going to change that.

Honestly VZW can search for root on my phone all they want but the truth of the matter is its my phone and I'll do whatever I want with it. I learned long ago to never take an ota from them. Rooting isn't against the law so screw them

Lol same here m8, first thing i do is root.

Yea for sure. Sadly though rooting as least on horrible verizon may become a thing of the past

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlads:
Hopefully not, rooting and having a tinker is what makes android great, I dread to think how I would feel if I was forced into the world of Apple, think I might end up with windows mobile :eek: yea I don't want to think like that, long live rooting I say.

I've heard bad things about Verizon doing things to their phones, do you not have a third party retailer in the states? I know that in the UK most people, especially people who want to modify their handsets, will buy from Carphone warehouse or even phones 4 u. You basically end up with the international unlocked version of the handset, as it was intended. I made the mistake of getting my Z1 from EE, turned out that the bootloader couldn't be unlocked no matter what I did, so I bricked it and sent it off for repair through Carphone, got a fully unlocked brand new handset back in five days.

There are several carriers, verizon and AT&T being the worst. Sadly verizon will never again have a nexus device available which is completely stupid on there part because they are losing a lot of customers.

Thanks for direct answer! I support your point of view on the topic! Why bother if one so upset. Either answer or ignore. Threads will be way shorter and meaningful.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlads:
True :) And I have no idea ;) And you're welcome, I wasn't 100% on the Verizon thing, I only knew what I'd tried myself, I was rooted and updates didn't work for me, maybe a mistake to assume it'd be the same for you, perhaps if it's going to be a huge difference there should be different sections ?

I dunno?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] louballs:
Not really sure where to put this, but I am on a t-mobile network and have always had 2GB per month. For the past 2 years I have NEVER gone over that amount. So I upgraded to this phone this month and upgraded to 3GB of data per month. Now I have ten days left until my billing cycle ends and I am already at 2.96GB of usage?? I haven't used my phone differently and I use wifi almost exclusively in my house. I'm not calling conspiracy, but its weird that all of the sudden with a new phone and new plan my data usage goes up. Today alone I hardly used my phone but it says I used 275MB on Chrome. All I did was search a few things on google. No video or anything! Any thoughts??
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sonspot:
I've had the phone for two weeks, I've been using Wi-Fi and data. I've only used 274mb so far that includes streaming music and some YouTube. Check under mobile data to see what's using What.. My data usage should be higher but there's no Rom to download lol
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheStickMan:
Post a screenshot of your mobile data usage from the Settings app..
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xlxcrossing:
Actually you should dial #WEB# for an accurate data usage reading. I think I had the same issue as you. After my first day owning the device my data usage in settings showed approximately 500mb used...in one day mind you. Later I found out about the dialer code and relied on that solely as my meter, not even the lame T-Mobile usage app either since it didn't update for days at a time. I also upgraded from 1gb to 3gb mid cycle and watched my data go from about 900mb used down to around 500. Something funky is going on with the native usage meter.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] E_Goldstein:
Oh well hehe

Try turning sync off certain apps
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] valefour:
Did you adjust the date on you usage cycle? I noticed while upgrading that this doesn't set itself so it might be reading data from before your new cycle started.

---------- Post added at 09:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:34 AM ----------

I can barely survive with 5gb. Lol
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] louballs:
Below are my data logs. However, when I run #web# it reads 2765MB, but the Tmobile tracker shows 2956MB. I don't know which is correct, but it seems tmobile is using the higher amount as they have sent me alerts that I am near my limit. Also, i've read online that some people are showing that music streaming is causing their data to go up even though it shouldn't. I turned off all of my syncing and ran spotify for a couple hours last night and my usage DID go up. Maybe there is an ongoing issue with tmobile.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheStickMan:
Your mobile tracks in precise measurements. Your carrier tracks in 1KB (or whatever) blocks. So lots of small usage will take up more allowance than it should.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sykozylot:
How does one do this? I'm only able to dial numbers.

I'm wondering if you are being sarcastic... #932#(#WEB#)
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheStickMan:
LOL. I am an idiot. :D I expected it to work like the hidden menu, so I never pressed DIAL heh.

Doesn't work for me though, Australian provider. "Request unknown"
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randyspants:
I have had 2gb a month for years and never even came close, 14 days into my first experience with T-Mobile and I'm at 3gb...

No idea what's going on, if anything I've used less data then I normally would.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] louballs:
What does your data usage say on the phone? I am interested as I am having the same issue...
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GTCC:
Why didn't you just say #932# in the first place?

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] SirusZero:
I ran got my phone rooted using a process that involved using a few .apks, and after that i used another script that ended up bricking my phone by getting stuck on lg security error. I can access fastboot if i keep uninstalling and reinstalling drivers in device manager and have tried flashing recovery images from several different threads including Lelus u & x script, and the other one involving p4_769.img

Every time I try to plug my phone into USB with the volume up button pressed (battery in or not) i get no feedback from my phone, and no s/w upgrade screen. I have also tried several usb cables and various ports on my computer, all unfortunately didnt work. I'm out of rocks to look under so I'm seeing if the great minds of XDA could shed some light on this confusing situation.

EDIT: I FINALLY entered software upgrade mode. I flashed the ICS u and x from lelus and then used fastboot to flash the stock LGMS769 recovery.img and then once i tried connecting my phone in software upgrade mode after putting batter back in it worked!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] saquerum:
So, I have a sprint galaxy nexus that will only boot to clockworkmod recovery. I can put it into download mode and Odin recognizes it I just need a rom to install from odin with. I was going to use cyanogenmod, but it came as a zip, which odin doesn't recognize. anyone have a link of what I can use?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thymo:
Just flash a stock rom from fastboot and flash from there
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] saquerum:
as far as I can tell, I can not use flashboot because I dud not initially set it up before I had the soft-brick.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thymo:
Run

fastboot oem unlock

Thos will wipe data and unlock the bootloader. (Odin will also wipe data.)

Then you can flash stock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] saquerum:
fastboot does not recognize my phone

So, I held volume up, volume down, and power and went into fastboot mode. I used this to install fastboot on my desktop http://lifehacker.com/the-easiest-way-to-install-androids-adb-and-fastboot-to-1586992378

Google+ and FB app are the ones I notice the most, and it doesn't happen everytime. Not at all when un-greenified in Xposed. Is this happening to anyone else?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prasanth21:
works for me. I use my friends moto G with greenify. No problems there.

If you have xposed framework there's this option called 'boost mode' in greenify that'll give you a better performance and compatibility.

Its better to use greenify when you have root access.

Hope this helps!

GS3 (d2att) running Clockworkmod and Cyanogenmod 11-20140812-nightly-d2lte

Attempting to install blacked out version of Gmail but need to remove existing version of Gmail but I get the error "an existing package by the same name with a conflicting signature is already installed."

My search came up with most folks looking to remove their Gmail account not the app. The few I saw trying to remove the app were not rooted. Surely I am not the first person with this issue.

So I tried to remove Gmail with Titanium Backup but it just reinstalls itself automatically without prompting.

Tried to freeze then uninstall with no change.

Turned off my data and wifi and still have the same result.

Removed my Google account but still the same result.

What am I doing wrong? I just want to remove Gmail and install a different version. I have never had so much trouble.

Thx.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShapesBlue:
I'd use a file Explorer and go into two different folders. System/app and data/app if you find anything labeled Gmail delete it and reboot. That should solve your problem

[Micromax A116] beingsimple:
GOod day friends, :)

I have a Micromax A116 thats almost a year old.

2 days back, Suddenly the SIM card is not getting detected.

The same sim (BSNL 3G) has been used for almost a year now on the same slot and suddenly it has gone non-detecable....

( then i checked the sim on to other mobile and it was ok. )

I changed the SIM from Slot 1 to Slot 2 ....still Card not detected......never used Slot 2 for any purpose....

So i decided it is really not a hardware issue but something to tweak ..........

I tried checking for IMEI number and it was getting displayed with #*06#

So IMEI no. is intact.

Recently i had changed my memory card from 4gb to 16gb .... i guess some related to it would have caused the trouble......bcz i FEEL that was the exact moment the sim cards went non-detecable.

So i changed my back to my old memory card and still the problem..........

SO i request some body who is aware of this issue to guide me to resolve this issue....

Thank you in advance

Regards

[T-Mobile LG G3] boosting1bar:
I've been running the awesome SkyDragon ROM/kernel with texdroider running the DPI at 560 and it's awesome. Today I got the circle case with wireless charging back and because of the different DPI the clock doesn't line up. I just changed back to stock DPI and the clock is fine but I realized just how much I enjoyed the rest of the phone at 570. I downloaded App Settings to try but I can't find the name of the lockscreen apk. Anyone know or have a better solution? Thanks.
[T-Mobile LG G3] boosting1bar:
So just in case anyone is wondering or has the same problem, it seems the easiest option is to set SystemUI back to 640 with App Settings. That fixes the lockscreen circle back to the proper position. It affects the status bar and nav bar as well, but it still keeps everything else the same.

As you can see in the screenshot here the status bar icons are proportionally a little too big, but not horrible. I shrank the nav bar back down with G3 Tweaksbox.
[T-Mobile LG G3] SyCoREAPER:
RESOLVED

Necroposting for the purpose of this being the first result in Google for G3 Lockscreen DPI.

Figured it out.

Undo any and all previous DPI tweaks.

Use Texdroider DPI, set to 530 reboot.

Install xposed AppSettings, enable it. Reboot.

In AppSettings look for an entry called key com.android.keyguard. Enable it and set DPI to 640 (this is stock). Under that select/check Apply res to widgets.

Save (Maybe Reboot also).
[T-Mobile LG G3] SyCoREAPER:

I believe since everybody is silent about this issue it is best to set the phone lock to none and revert to a 3rd party lockscreen at least that is what I did.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] starkillers:
My phone received the ng2 update. I'm stock, not rooted. One thing I noticed is that when opening the messaging app, it is sluggish and has some noticeable lag when first opening the app. I've emptied out the messages and cleared cache to no avail. Anyone else experiencing this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] starkillers:
I fired up the phone in safe mode thinking I may have a rogue app. No luck, same results. Slow and sluggish only in the messaging app. I wiped cache, no luck. I rebooted the phone, and quickly while it was loading I went into the messaging app and it opened smoothly, however, after about 30 seconds it began to lag again. You can notice it when you hit the soft menu in the app. I'm beginning to think its an issue with the messaging app as it is the only app exhibiting this behavior. I'd really hate to to even try a factory reset as I am not rooted and can't make a backup. Anybody else on NG2 check their messaging app and hit the soft menu to see if it is laggy compared to all other apps? Thanks so much.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] starkillers:
Did a clean wipe of the entire phone and still seeing the sluggishness. Either most of you haven't received the update yet or I can chalk it up to ng2 issue. Hopefully somebody on ng2 can chime in.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] bobosofly:
Can i change the green on the quick settings and the lockscreen wallpaper ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kevinoliva113:
Unfortunately, you can't get rid of all of the green. If you go into themes and choose the middle one, it will blue a lot of it, but not the Quick settings. :crying:

You can put a custom wallpaper on the lockscreen, but first you MUST enable use lockscreen gestures. Go to Settings>Lockscreen. Check Use lockscreen gestures>build gestures. It will ask you to set an unlock gesture. Set it and test it. (You can also set tons of other actions through gestures).

After you know the unlock gesture works, go to themes, swipe left to mix >Lockscreen Wallpaper>Others.. Pick and set.

After the custom wallpaper is set, You must use the unlock gesture from now on... If you use the unlock bubble,your phone will force restart.
