[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gavinfabl:
Totally undecided. I have a LG G3 at the moment but miss using a stylus when I had the Note 3 several months ago. I also miss from when I had the Samsung S5 the ultra power saving mode, sunlight visibility and download booster.

So here lies my dilemna - the Edge has a smaller battery, power button moved to top so in harder to reach place, and is all plastic . The Note 4 looks premium and will be easier and more compatible with other software.

But my decision might be made for me as the Edge may not come to the UK for a while...
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apprentice:
Why do you think a UK distribution will be delayed? We usually get new releases here first (Like the K Zoom, Galaxy Camera, Gear etc etc)
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gavinfabl:
Well Samsung have already emailed me about the Note 4 and not the Edge. It just may be a staggered launch.

One thing that worries me is updates. The Note 4 will get them first I would have thought.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacrofish:
I am not sure what markets will even get the edge. To be honest, it would not surprise me if the US doesn't even get it. Note 4 I will have to see and play with in person. My Note 3 already pushes the limits with what I am comfortable holding. If the Note 4 really is perceptively wider, it will be a no go for me I am afraid. I don't know why Sammy did not slim down the 4 more. That was a big fail in my opinion.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gavinfabl:
It's a shame the width is lightly wider than the Note 3. But then the new big iPhone will be similar to Note 4 as well.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mty msi:
In a hands on video of the Edge it was pointed out that holding the phone and not activating icons on the side screen was very difficult. I also would want to see what types of rugged cases would be available. And lastly, I would not pay a $100-150 premium for the Edge model. Also, I think accessories wise a lot more will be available for the standard model because I don't think the Edge will sell in anywhere near the numbers the standard model does.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spridell:
Has been confirmed ALL 4 US carriers will get the Note Edge.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrewtst:
When first seen Note Edge I want it.

After checking more I find it actually not that attractive but instead look unbalance. After see the video hands on preview and knowing the spec.

I am towards Note 4 now. :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rushless:
Some things perhaps against Edge.

1. Price. 32gb likely to be over $1,000 after tax, or $400 on contract. I shudder to think what the 64gb will cost, but due to price doubt any carrier will bother.

2. Even wider than the N4

3. The bendy display is likely proprietary so Wiz or nothing. Perhaps by design since Samsung could release apps specifically for the display and nobody else.

Whatever the case, I ain't paying $1,000 for a device with a chipset now two years old. The 805 is the last of the 28nm family. I doubt I would pay that much for any phone

next year either.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zoso28:
I'm a Samsung advocate so they'll give me whatever device they want, but if i had a choice there are a few things I'm hung up on.. Will the edge have the same ROM with some extra APK'S for the "edge" bit or will it be an entirely different ROM. In that case what impact would that have on root/ROM's/xposed/updates/etc. What about cases? And what kind of crazy screen protector will it take. And maybe most importantly, how will the device know if I'm using the edge or just touching it while i have it in my right hand. I usually get excited for every Samsung launch, but the note 4 is mostly cosmetic and the edge still scares me a bit. Think i may "lose" my note 3 in case i need to go back to it
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rushless:
Seems Cy mods might not be an option with the Edge. If proprietary, it would not be worth the time or effort to add the bendy feature for one device.

Mod fans might want to wait longer to see what pans out. Edge might make other Samsung devices seem like a Nexus in comparison.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SeanPlunk:
I'm really, really hoping for a Verizon Dev. Edition Note Edge.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emeraldayotte:
Like the look of the Note Edge but worried about under development of the extra screen. Reminds me of the Samsung Continuum that had potential but nothing came out of that screen.

Note 4 for me
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovekeiiy:
I think the Edge is interesting concept. Although, I learn more towards the standard. I just don't see the extra pixels being very useful in how I use my phone. I'm actually more curious about the Gear S and how it interacts with the phone.

Note Edge ftw ??
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RandyKaoss:
I'm due an upgrade from my Galaxy Note 2 and I'm going for the Note 4 as soon as it's released in the UK.

The Edge looks awesome and is a very interesting concept, but I think the novelty of the curved section would wear off pretty quickly. Like others have said, how do you avoid activating one of the Edge icons with the inside of your hand when navigating the main screen? Then there's issues with customisation, accessories etc. My Note 2 has survived 2 years with no cover or screen protector - the screen is perfect but the sides of it are pretty beaten up, I can see the Edge's side screen being easily scratched, and difficult to protect.

I thought so too but being in my pocket I did miss some texts and calls. With the neo 2 that i got for my birthday I don't miss anything now and that's important with an expecting wife.

On topic. Note 4 for me. I am hesitant on the edge because I am unsure if updates will arrive for it in a timely manner
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mchief298:
Note 4. I mean the note edge looks awesome but it seems like a gimmick that'll be in the way. It's apparently wider, and according to pre-release impressions, it's uncomfortable. The note 4 allows me to use the Gear VR. While, yes, another gimmick... I may get more of a fun use out of that.

I have the oculus rift dk2. If it's half as good as that I would be very happy
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mchief298:
Also, I owned the note 3 for 6 months.. And stock was extremely sluggish.. Thanks to touchwiz... I'm with m8 now, and it's smooth as butter.. I'm hoping Samsung better optimizes the note 4 with the power and power management the 805 brings... The jitter was way too noticeable for me. Higher clock speeds mean nothing, honestly.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ipsuvedi:
I already used 5-6 android devices 2 htc and 3 samsung and 1 sony

And I found all are almost same ...no matter its touchwiz or sense or other ...the difference is of milisecond which is very hard to notice

getting updates is not an issue, I am sure Samsung will treat it equally to Note 4 but edge may not get good dev support and this is my concern because after getting disappointed from note 4, i had decided to go for edge.

Why dissapointed?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] COA4178:
I go with galaxy note 4, the edge curved screen seems to be kind off exposed when it comes to protection and avoiding screen scratches.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sohebq:
Because I feel it is step backwards from note 3. Also I was looking for water resistance as I travel a lot in rain on bike.

[Moto X Q&A] alrojas:
Hi,

Is it possible unlock my phone to work with any carrier if I have my bootloader unlocked already?

Thanks!
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
No. Which variant do you have? If it is a Sprint device, my sim-crack can unlock it. Any other device, you should be able to purchase a sim-unlock code for somewhere between $10 and $30 from an online sim-unlock code seller.
[Moto X Q&A] alrojas:
This is my problem. I requested to motorola an unlock code to unlock my Moto X and work with any carrier. Three days later they send me my code to release it. But when I put my code on my phone... doesn't work. :/. I entered the code many time but the result was the same. At that point my bootloader was locked. So I proceeded to unlock my bootloader. The process was successful. Then I tried to unlock my phone again but still doesn't work :(.

Today I talk with Motorola... and they said that the problem is because my bootloader is unlocked. I don't think so, because I tried to unlock it before and after unlock my bootloader.

Anyway... Motorola can't help me anymore because I lose warranty for unlock my bootloader.

So my question is : Can I unlock my phone if my bootloader is unlocked?.

Thanks!
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
Yes, but Motorola has nothing to do with it.

Unlocking the BL doesn't make you unable to Sim unlock.

You just need to do it the right way. Motorola has NEVER given out Sim unlock codes.

I asked you which variant you had and you never answered.

Be careful not to make too many incorrect unlock attempts or you will be permanently Sim locked. Once this happens there is nothing you can do.

Again, the bootloader has nothing to do with Sim lock, and neither does Motorola. Only the carriers can Sim unlock you... And the online code sellers.

The carriers would throw a fit if moto gave out Sim unlock codes. Moto has no right to do that, and never have.

---------- Post added at 12:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:45 PM ----------

Since you claim that moto sent you a Sim unlock code (which is impossible) your problem is that you entered an incorrect code too many times.

You really should have known better. If it doesn't work once, it's wrong. Just silly to keep trying the same code...

Anyways, if you tried too many times you are permanently locked and there is nothing you or anyone can do about it.

Let it be a lesson. Never never never keep entering the wrong code. After a threshold number of attempts, a q fuse is blown permanently Sim locking it to the carrier.
[Moto X Q&A] alrojas:
:o. How I know if my phone is pemanetly locked because I try a lot... a lot :(. I've attached my About Phone Screen.

Thanks!

Hi.

I need to hide the gallery WhatsApp (I know how to do it by file .nomedia) but each new file downloaded to gallery folder back to be displayed (with the files created after the creation of .nomedia only).

If access to the Media folder delete the WhatsApp .nomedia and create again the files are hidden.

To solve this I created this script:

#!/bin/bash

cd /storage/sdcard0/WhatsApp/Media/WhatsApp\ Video/

rm .nomedia

touch .nomedia

cd ..

cd WhatsApp\ Images/

rm .nomedia

touch .nomedia

But when run it does not hide the images. Apparently the file manager sends a command to "update" the files in that folder.

Someone can explain why this is?

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rypkr937:
I'm entirely new to anything phone/development related so I apologize for my ignorance (I also apologize if this is in the wrong section). I've had a razr M for about 2 years now and I'm entirely content with it except after the last update I can no longer use my foxfi for wifi access. From what I understand I can't root my phone and downgrade from this operating system so my question is this: Can I buy a new one off ebay for ~$100, root it and use foxfi (or some other free wifi tether) while keeping my unlimited data and not "bricking" it? The battery on my current phone has gone to crap anyways and I was considering buying a replacement phone considering they're only ~$100 anyways.

It's a pain in the but trying to figure all of this out with only limited time to browse the internet at work and trying to sort the 100's of pages of info from my phone.

Is this feasible? Are there certain things I need to verify about a phone before I buy it to make sure I can complete this process?

Thanks in advance,

Rory

If you're on the latest firmware, you CAN root with Towel Root and unlock with Motopocalypse. Then you can downgrade back to JB. There's a method posted by [MENTION=4132606]bweN diorD[/MENTION] somewhere in this forum.

When it comes to trying to root my phone, since I have no more foxfi I also don't have a way to have internet access on my computer/tablet to walk me through the rooting process/assist me if something goes wrong with the... would you think it's intuitive enough/fullproof that if I print out the thread I can just follow it through and shouldn't have issues?

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RikRong:
Towel Root and Motopocalypse are both apps that you can download to the phone and then run. They're just apps, so they are as easy as opening the app then running. You need to use Towel Root, then Motopocalypse to unlock, and then you can install TWRP. If you don't want to use fastboot to install recovery, then you can flash it with Rashr or Flashify. Just download TWRP and place on your external SD, no need to open or extract it. Flash it with one of those apps. Once you're rooted and unlocked, you should be able to use that guide to downgrade.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
just use the tutorial i posted before as a guide, substituting the files [MENTION=5127013]RikRong[/MENTION] gave you for the recoveries.

i just updated the guide to include a complete step by step for flashing the recoveries and su zip.

the only thing you will need is fastboot and adb in the same folder with your recovery file.

the guide instructs to use adb and fastboot from my script, but you wont have my script. thats why you need to grab adb and fastboot from google.

its not difficult, you just dont understand what needs to be done. you dont open the recovery with the phone booted up. just read the guide and subsequent link to the step by step and you will quickly see where you are going wrong.
