Hi,

I am about to get a new moto g since my n5 broke. Since I go to a lot of concerts I was wondering how the concert sound in recordings is? I am going to electric zoo this weekend and would like to take some videos without a lot of distortion.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiko321:
I hate to say this but you picked the wrong phone. Camera is moto g's worst. But there are video samples in yt. Its up to you what do you think about the quality.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgr208:
I knew it was bad but figured I could live with it for a bit. Since my n5 broke and with a new one possibly coming out didn't want to get a new n5 and then be sol in terms of money to get an n6. I just hope there isn't a lot of distortion from bass. The n5 was bad in that part. Couldn't even hear lyrics just vibrating.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thewhipedone:
Now that these are getting cheaper and have decent specs I would like to use a couple as Ipod replacement. I want it to function in every way but I want ALL cell service blocked even 911 and remove the sim card warning. Is this even possible or am stuck buying 4 Ipod 5's? the main reason for this is I HATE ITUNES. The only thing apple in my house are these Ipod 4's and now they cant be updated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
The easiest way is to take it off a plan and it's basically a wifi enabled music player. You can always disable anything you don't need. If you take the sim card out and you root it i know there's a Xposed module that let's you disable the sim card warning or if I remember correctly it will tell you that you'll need wifi if no sim is inserted

And yea I couldn't agree more about iTunes. I enjoy the drag and drop feature in android and I've used iTunes on my kids ipods and I personally don't like it at all

in the last couple days both of my devices (moto x and lg g pad 8.3 gpe) haven't been able to attach gifs that have been downloaded after a certain date. i think this problem started saturday or yesterday so any gifs saved AFTER one of those days won't attach into any hangout. everyone else in the hangout can attach gifs.

i can attach and send gifs to hangouts on my computer but if i do it on my phone or tablet i'll get the message "Can't send this file" on the bottom of the screen. has anyone else encountered this problem?

It is my understanding that the Ascend Mate 2 does not have an app drawer, will installing nova launcher add the app drawer. I am sorry if this has been asked before i have been searching for an answer and cannot find anything.

It started yesterday with me attempting to install 4.4.2 fresh on rom slot 1. Now the phone loops, it can't boot into safe strap either. So in short: I'm dead in the water.

How can I unbrick my Verizon Note 3? I couldn't find any clear/concise instructions. I obviously need to do something through ODIN 3 as I don't have access to Safestrap or an OS.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shaggy Kobain:
You need to use Odin and flash whatever firmware you had previously on your phone. Look here for the firmware you need to place in Odin and after it runs the cycle, you'll be back to a fresh start.

You also want to keep that link handy just in case this happens again and make sure you follow the OP instructions to the last letter. I know it can be exciting to get root and flash a ROM, but sometimes it's better to read the instructions twice over so you don't skip a step and end up soft bricking.

If anything helped or helps, please hit the thanks :good:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] HORiZUN:
It's been almost a year since I swapped my SGH-I337 (At&t S4) for my SGH-M919 (T-Mobile S4) but I do remember SIM unlocking and enabling the AWS bands on the At&t phone and testing the 4G with a buddy's sim card. Everything worked fine.

Side note: the SGH-M919 works flawlessly on At&t's network. 4G LTE, MMS, visual voicemail, etc. No issues whatsoever. Hope this helps!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scotty562:
I have a note 3 that I'm trying to get Cyanogenmod 11 on to. I should note that I got this working with my Droid Razr earlier today using the exact same process. I get to the point where I flash the rom and it only takes like 5 seconds then says "successful". When I boot the rom I just get a black screen that I have to hold the power button down to get out of. My note 3 is running 4.4.2 I have root and busybox is installed. I've tried safestrap 3.72 and 3.75. I've even tried the stock slot (and then reverted back when it didn't work). I'm out of things to try and I can't find anyone else who has had a similar issue. Anyone got any ideas?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andygev35:
If its an N900A or N900V, you can only run TW based roms because the bootloader is locked.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sethers:
noob over here needing help

i have the ATT Note 3 with the locked bootloader. i cant rememeber the model name but i think its like I900A. anyway i have had it rooted for about 5 months or so and i have had safestrap and busybox and use Xposed wanam. also using twrp and titanium backup. well i have never flashed anything on it cuz ive always been sketched out with the locked bootloader and not being able to flash kernals and all that. so yesterday i figured i would try one out and see if i could get it. i used the "S5 Experience" rom and i downloaded it from MEGA onto my ext. SD under a new folder i made called "s5 experience". i then went into recovery mode through safestrap and went to "backup" and then made a backup of data, cache, and system. after that i went to "wipe" and did a factory reset/wipe. when that was done i went to "install" and found my "s5 experience" on my ext. SD and installed it. when that was done i rebooted my device and it popped up with the samsung note 3 emblem and under it the little lock underneath it in the unlocked position just like it always has. then went to safestrap with the little red robot and "safestrap: disabled" like always. so i hit continue and from there is when my problem started. the blue LED light on the top left turned on and stayed on but the screen stayed black. this is the problem i am still having right now. if i press the power button it will vibrate or double vibrate and eventualy if i hold it down i can get it to restart. after that i went into recovery again and tried to restore from my backup i had made just earlier. when i try that it goes for a while and then will eventually say that restore has failed. ive mesed with some of the settings and stuff in the twrp recovery interface but not much because im new and not sure what i should and should not be doing. so i started looking here. i didnt find any help on the S5 Experience forum and i havent found and other forums that have this problem except maybe this one. so i am asking for help, if someone would be so kind as to walk me through how to fix my phone and what i did wrong it would be greatly greatly appreciated. if at all possible i would love to keep all of my pics and apps and stuff but if that is not possible then i wont complain if i have to lose it all. i would be happy just to have a working phone again. thanks in advance and sorry if i have posted this in the wrong place.:confused:
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brisinger08:
If you can boot to stock recovery (power+home+volume up) NOT safestrap recovery do a factory reset from there. That'll reflash stock rom and you can reroot + busybox + SS. Make sure to check what build you are on as well - if you are on NC2 kitkat you can only flash kitkat-based roms.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sethers:
sorry graydiggy. this seemed like a thread that had something to do with the same black screen i was getting. besides this one i only posted it on the stupid questions thread.

---------- Post added at 01:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:51 PM ----------

brisinger08, thanks for the input. i was running kit kat. i figured the s5 experience would be based off of kitkat too but i guess i should have checked first. i just tried that. when i got into the recovery boot the little android guy falls over. then i went to factory wipe and let it wipe. after that i went to reboot. when it rebooted it still had the little lock under the Samsung logo and after that screen it went straight to safestrap again. it hasn't seemed to change anything as far as i can tell. any other ideas?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brisinger08:
If you're on the A3 bootloader then reflashing NC2 with odin will clear this up, (double-check in download mode) then follow the instructions in this thread. If you're on A2 you can still do this but it will overwrite your bootloader and lock you into NC2 so if that's the case you might want to read through that thread to make sure you're ok with that!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoothmoose:
I have to say, I am almost done with vendor/carrier Android phones. I have had the S2, LG G2x, S3, HTC One X+, and now the Verizon S5, which was my choice of over the iPhone 5s for my corporate phone.

I have not done anything to my S5 yet, haven't installed a boat load of apps, nor does my company run any fancy, MDM work/play management software, and still this phone already feels bloated after a couple months of use. The lockscreen sometime takes many seconds to show up, only then to immediately disappear before I can even enter my lock pattern or swipe my fingerprint. And boy, does the fingerprint reader really blow compared to the iPhone. Try unlocking the phone while on the go with the fingerprint read... nearly impossible. The camera, wow sometimes takes over 20s to load. I thought going from a 1GB RAM phone to 2GB phone would make a difference. Needless to say the Samsung and Verizon bloatware finds way of eating resources up fast.

I'm stuck with this phone, and once again, it looks like I'll need to root and load a custom ROM to get this POS to run like a respectable smartphone. I'm capable and have done this to all my Android devices before (except my Nexus 7), but quite frankly I am tired of this and all the time I have spent, unlocking, downloading, backing up and loading and unloading ROMs. I only wish, there was a Google Play edition for Verizon or, I should just buy my own Nexus 6 when it comes out.

In meantime, what is the best recommendation of the clean/stripped/no frills ROM that will make my phone run and look most like a Nexus device?

Sorry for the rant, I'm not planning to go over to the fruity side either. So you guys are stuck with me.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chopstix9:
First thing I did out of the box was root, install Titanium Backup Pro and freeze everything that was not system dependent. I run supersu and Xposed framework with Wanam and some other modules. The phone has zero lag and the battery life is insanely great ... I've never had an android phone (my 4th) with such incredible battery life. I am so far beyond impressed with this phone it's un-real.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoothmoose:
Good point. And my point is, ultimately I am needing to at minimum as you suggest root and freeze with Titanium backup, which at least a bit less of time waste than installing a new ROM. That said, I mind as well while I'm at, since I really don't find anything redeeming about Touchwiz. The bigger point, I can't imagine a non-technical user wanting to do this over-and-over again for each Android phone they get.

I agree battery life is very good, even stock. I'm running in power saving mode. That is the only redeeming quality I have found so far...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] huedawg:
Obviously running in power saving mode is going to slow down system performance .
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoothmoose:
Power savings mode throttles down the CPU around 30% and dims the screen. This is no way should cause the lockscreen to take over 5s to pop up or the camera 20s to load. I am not playing any 3D games or anything like this. I'm pretty sure it's just bloated software eating away at the 2GB of RAM.

My HTC One X+ never slowed to a crawl like this on power saving mode. The issue with that phone was the battery life and hence...power savings mode.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] huedawg:
Then you have a bad phone . ?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damagi123:
Not experiencing any of the problems you have man. INSANE battery life, extremely snappy performance, I personally have grown to like touchwiz alot. Why dont you at the very least just do a fresh flash with stock firmware and it'll fix alot of your issues or go install one of the roms like SLIMHYDE and youll never have those issues again unless the above poster was right and you just have a bad phone, which is easy to get replaced.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoothmoose:
Probably only a slight possibility my phone is defective. Usually things speed back up if I reboot the phone. But things slow to crawl usually after about 2 days of use.

I can definitely try to do a clean reset, freeze apps, install new ROM, etc. My point is, I really shouldn't need to do this for a top of line smartphone. Again, the only Android device that hasn't presented these issues and I am happy to run stock is my Nexus 7. I guess I should save some pennies for the Nexus 6 phone...great way to suck more $$ out of me.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] huedawg:
I guess my point is , is that very few people are having to do that . That leans more towards a bad device than anything else . Perhaps you have something that is running using system resources ?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbrehob:
Dude, I feel your pain. This will be my last Samsung device because of their dogsh*t software and locked hardware. The phone slows down over time, there is no doubt. The only great thing about the S5 is the hardware, putting CM would have made it by FAR the best phone out.

Regardless, I have rooted and debloated. I have enabled Wifi tethering, enabled voice recording, etc. For the most part I am pretty satisfied right now.

I am waiting for the next version of the LG phone, G4 maybe? Or a clean Google phone on Verizon.

My rear glass is starting to separate from the frame in the top right corner.

Has anyone even heard of this problem on this phone?

Talked to Xperia Care today and it's covered under warranty but it's going to be a 14 working day turn around!

They are based in Texas, but since my phone originated from Hong Kong then it may take longer if parts differ.

It's not noticeable in the picture too bad but it's definitely coming apart because I feel the edge of the glass on my hand. Also it goes back in if I push it in but comes out eventually in a short amount of time...
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
its a known issue, its quite common actualy, i think if you look around some threads you will see alot of posts from unique users

edit- this should be covered by warrenty, Sony Customer Service Japan can conferm for this and same goes with Sony C-Service UK and also USA
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NetSkill:
I actually have the same problem on my Z2 , i previously owned the Xperia Z where i was experiencing same issue, and yes is covered under warranty....glass becomes unglued and separating from frame because NFC pins pushing the glass out, and phone generating heat during usage and this way the adhesive sticker inside becomes melt and glass starts to go out...this is a known issue even Sony knows about. I was able to hold 5 different Z2s and every one had the same issue, same area, different batch numbers.

The fifth one was yesterday in Orange ( operator) i dont know how to cerrectly call this showpiece? I mean the place where you can grap the phone and play with it... I noticed this problem on this phone....

I was analyzing this problem and i found that first area where it starts to come off is where the big flap is, thats the place where NFC pins are, and it continue to ungluing to the corner exactly like it is on your photo....Come on Sony!! Z1 was proof from this becasue of the middle frame and, this way nothing is pushing the glass out and also adhesive sticker is more wider.... I know what i am talking about i am gsm mechanic i was assembling both devices. But i dont know if you guys understand my English
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Night Elve:
You are pretty much right about that. My Z2 seems to have this problem in this particular area, I did not return the unit because I assume this eventually happens to all Z2.

Same thing I suffered with my old Z, I still don't understand why Sony does not come up with a better solution than gluing everything together.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NetSkill:
I saw xperia z3 leaded pictures and from what seen i can say that z3 got fixed this issue because of different placement of NFC pins they paced them almost in the middle of the motherboard (same as z1) logically its a way better placement in the middle because its more dificult for those pins to lift both sides and top of the glass together at the same time than only right side in z / z2... Btw tomorrow i am going to repair another z2 customer reported this issue...

If you want you can go for warranty repair but if you are heavy gamer like me or doing something that heating up the device expect the same thing to happen in less than month.... The adhesive on the glass is really strong but after you heat up the glass, its not so strong then.... Its better to put locktide power flex(super glue) together with adhesive sticker and glue it this way..yeah then its almost impossible to get the glass off as the locktide is less,almost not sensitive to heat. I repaired mine z2 this way,like i sad i am gamer my phone is hot everyday and everithing is okayy
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Night Elve:
Edith

Well I run 3 or 4 times per week and I use Nike+ so the phone gets pretty hot, and since I really don't have the skills to open my phone and glued again I will just ignore this issue (Hopefully is a minor issue) and I'm going to hope Sony has all this fixed by the time Z4 is released.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tsais:
I had my phone mostly in Sony's charge dock for the last couple of months, using it as a wifi hotspot. When I took it out the other day, I thought the back seemed to bulge a bit. I only had it for ~6 months or so, and I remember thinking that the battery couldn't have gone bad already - since its known that bad batteries start to bulge...

Anyway, took it out of the charger again today to leave the house with it and found that the rear "glass" has separated from the frame by a lot and there's a 3mm gap to the frame on one side.

1) the back seems more flexible than glass would normally be? I think its not actually glass... (I know they build different models for different regions - this was purchased in Hong Kong)

2) if I push the edges of the back to the frame and hold a ruler to the back in either direction, there's a clear bulge forcing the back away from the phone.

3) what besides the battery in a phone can expand to the extent that it will push the rear panel off the phone?

The phone has never been dropped, its in absolutely new condition, aside from this annoying failure to stay together...

Thoughts of going back to Samsung with their swappable batteries are hard to suppress...

UK Warranty Refusing Repair

Hey Guys,

I am having the same issue with my Z2, it's about 8 months old. I sent it off last week and this week I was quoted £350 for a BRAND NEW DEVICE! :eek:

I phoned them and asked why and they said that they have deemed it to be accidental damage! They are escalating it currently but I fail to see how it COULD be accidental damage?! I have never dropped the phone or anything...

Can someone on here please confirm that their device was repaired under warranty? If so did you get a receipt/ invoice or anything with it? I would very much appreciate any help with getting Sony to fix my damn phone...
