[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xile6:
I I dont think that the screen being a tad bit smaller is a deal killer. I have heard that you can turn off the side panel to use the full screen (idk if its just some apps or all over the os)

Also it still has more screen left to right just not top to bottom.

At less when i check.also since its curved im willing to bet that the scan of the phone isnt 1005 on that edge.

But the true test is holding both phones and seeing first hand.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paul89:
Although I believe the full screen size is 5.6", I agree with you that it all comes down to seeing the phones in person and seeing how they feel in the hand. Why the flip do we have to wait a whole month or longer :( LOL

Oh the other deciding factor is the fact the difference in battery size is pretty substantial. 220mAh diff
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xile6:
Yea I thought about the battery to. But i still think with the new tech and battery saver that it should last longer then the note 3. And probably 30 mins to an hour less then the note 4.

I do dislike that the power button was moved to the top. But i know it would of been hard to keep it on the side. (I had a htc one so the top power isn't to bad)

Other then that I'm all for the phone. The note 4 doesn't seem like a big jump from the note 3. And if i upgrade I want to see some changes lol..

Plus that edge is killer. I bet there next phone will be dual edges with captive volume buttons lol.

Damn that would be killer.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SeanPlunk:
It looks like the Edge has more surface area to work with despite the smaller diagonal:

Note 4: 13.88 inches/squared

Note Edge: 14.09 inches/squared

Obviously the entire area isn't available for everything on the Edge though.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paul89:
So in the end, the Note Edge does have the bigger screen, but it isn't all usable for example for the spen.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ipsuvedi:
Your answer seems reasonable, it woud be more convincing if there is any proof of this measurement!
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SeanPlunk:
It's just math based on the 5.6 diagonal and the 2560 x 1600 resolution. I could certainly be missing something, but it should in theory be accurate.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MSK1:
So have we concluded what the screen size for edge is excluding the sidebar?

What would the diagonal be?

http://www.theverge.com/2014/10/27/7077139/galaxy-note-edge-review

This article suggests that the usable space on edge (excluding the sidebar) is the same. ... not sure how that works mathematically
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xile6:
From what I saw when I saw the phone side by side with the note 4.

The screen is shorter then the note 4 5.7in

If you draw it out it would simply be a .1in shorter. Then you add about .2 or .3 inchs to the side.

You can see this when the edge screen turns off the edge turns black and you end up with just a normal 5.6in screen
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MSK1:
Might have to brush up on the old pythagorous theorem. ...

But are you saying

1 ( that a smaller diagonal can result in a larger surface area?

2) edge (main screen) has same surface area as note 4

3) edge has more surface area overall

4) this would beg the question why diagonal is the "go to" measure for screen size rather than surface area. .... Surely that is more important?

---------- Post added at 07:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:10 AM ----------

I mean if it's the case that the sidebar is "additional surface area" when compared with the note 4..... That's a true bonus and definitely worth waiting for. ....

Bump....
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stilkus:
Mine is arriving tomorrw, otherwise I would have measured it with a simple ruler instead of everyone guessing it.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MSK1:
Please could you measure when it arrives?
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mscion:
I measured my Note edge screen (screen shots of Edge are below) and while I do not have a very precise ruler I would say that the 5.6" is the full diagonal including the edge. Maybe it is slightly larger than that but it would round down to 5.6". If you just look at the area where your home screen or where you would see your app running, I'd say the diagonal is closer to 5.5". The width of the screen without the edge is maybe a little less than 2 7/8" (2.875") and the width with the extra Edge region is about 3". The height of the Edge screen is about 4 3/4" (4.75").

I don't have a Note 4 but I think the Note 3, which I do have, is pretty close to Note 4 in dimensions. There I do get a 5.7 inch diagonal and the width is 2 3/4" (2.75") and height is about 5"

So with or without Edge the Note Edge has a wider screen but a smaller hight. The Note 3 (and probably Note 4 ) has a bigger diagonal. The area of the Note edge without the edge screen is a little smaller than the Note 3 (13.66 inches squared for Edge and 13.75 inches squared for Note 3) But the area of the Note Edge with the edge region is about 14.25 inches squared which is a bit bigger than the Note 3.

Hope that helps and that I didn't mess up the math or measurements!

[HTC One X] rustyhermit:
Hi, I'm trying to root my phone but am confused with some things.. When I attempt to obtain my unlock code from HTCDev I get the Error 160. I read this is because one of the newer builds keeps users from unlocking the bootloader through HTCDev (I have build 3.18). I looked around a bit and some of the things I found say I need Super CID to change my CID to 11111111 and then I would be able to get my unlock code from HTCDev. The problem is I need to be S-Off in order to do so and in order to get S-Off I need to have an unlocked bootloader and/or be rooted. I then found a thread with a similar problem to mine and they said to use temp root and then Super CID and another said to use Motochopper. I used Motochopper but it seemed to just be a One-Click Root Method, which did not work. I saw no option to change my CID but the OP in the other thread said he used it and fixed his solution (which again is similar, if not, the same as mine).
[HTC One X] Thant:
man just go to htcdev.com and unlock your bootloader no need S-OFF or Super CID and really I don't know from were you reed this!!!:eek:

You do something wrong maybe you send wrong unlocktocken or I don't know you can unlock your boatloader via htcdev.com you are doing something wrong:)

And this question is for Q&A section
[HTC One X] rustyhermit:
Like I said, I get an error when submitting my token, not because i copy and pasted it wrong. I copy it from <<<< Identifier Token Start >>>> to <<<<< Identifier Token End >>>>> but the 3.18 build keeps people from unlocking the bootloader through HTCDev and need to change my CID to 11111111 with SuperCID which requires S-Off which i need to have be rooted/unlocked bootloader which I can't get. But I have found a working temproot and will work on getting S-Off soon to use SuperCID to change my CID to 11111111 :). If I can't figure out how to do it then that's fine. I was only interested in this mod for an app which works with the temp root! :D. As of now I won't be needing the full benefits of a permanent root.

Would I restore the TWRP backup, then flash the Tmo recovery, then flash radio and then try to flash the OTA?

Very confused, looked through many posts. still not sure which is easiest/best method to update.

What would be the best way to get get to 4.4.3? I am constantly receving system updates, and do not want to update via through phone.

Please help!

Thanks guys!
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] VolcanicSkunk:
Probably your best bet would be to restore stock os, restore stock recovery, re-lock the bootloader, then take the OTA. You'll have to unlock your bootloader through HTC Dev process again.

So stock os, and stock recovery. I will look for that,

[Zooper Widget General] TheStretchedElf:
I'm new to zooper and have been customising a home screen for a couple of days. One thing I wanted to do was to display a different image for each weather condition (yahoo weather).

I figured out that I can do this by having multiple bitmaps overlaid on each other, one for each weather condition, with the alpha value set to 0 if the relevant weather condition isn't detected.

With not knowing too much about zooper just yet it struck me that this might be a bit of a heavy handed approach, with potentially up to 48 bitmaps in the widget (according to the yahoo weather condition codes XML I found) each with their own advanced parameters being monitored.

So I suppose my question is, am I going about this the right way and will it be a huge drain on resources?
[Zooper Widget General] TheStretchedElf:
After reading this thread it seems I was right to think it felt heavy handed.

From what I've read, the right way to go about this is to have one bitmap layer with advanced parameters that display each picture only if the specific weather conditions are true.

Example:

$#WCCOND#=mostly cloudy?(b)/storage/emulated/0/ZooperWidget/Bitmaps/BlueBeacon/cloudy.jpg(/b)$
$#WCCOND#=sunny?(b)/storage/emulated/0/ZooperWidget/Bitmaps/BlueBeacon/sunny.jpg(/b)$

NB: The round brackets in the above code (b) (/b) should actually be square brackets but the forum turns this into bold.
[Zooper Widget General] jimlahey:
You could create an iconset instead, or grab an iconset from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2084070 and replace the images with yours.
[Zooper Widget General] TheStretchedElf:
Thanks for that, I'll look into it. Is there any advantage to going the icon route? And does it matter that my images are jpg photos (eg. a cloudy sky rather than a cloud clip art)?
[Zooper Widget General] jimlahey:
An iconset is a lot easier to manage (use in different widgets, sharing etc) as it's just 1 zip file. And I believe jpg will work as long as you edit the image extensions in the iconset xml file.
[Zooper Widget General] TheStretchedElf:
Thanks. Looks like I'll be creating my first icon set tonight then :D

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MurphmanL:
Hi All,

I've just unlocked my Z2's bootloader and flashed AuRom V4

Since doing so, my Video Unlimited seems to be broken, I keep getting 'Network Unavailable' when trying to sign in...

Does anyone have a definitive solution for this or is this a definite side effect of unlocking the bootloader?

I couldn't seem to find a definitive answer but I would very much like to get it working again as I have lots of content on Video Unlimited I'd like to enjoy on the phone.

I did backup my TA Partition, but the problem remains!

Any help would be appreciated!

Side effect, it relies on the drm keys in the ta partition

Hmm, well I think I've just made my first n00b mistake...

I backed up the TA partition before I left Stock.

Because I wanted to get video unlimited back I figured I may as well restore the partition and the keys, so I plugged in the usb cable and pushed restore TA partition.

The integrity checks said restore success, restart phone? Now the phone won't boot, not even to the xperia logo I just get a vibration and nothing else...

Please don't tell me I've bricked the thing :( If I have I guess I should have read more carefully :/

You can try plasti dip to paint the case. I've seen it done with phones and other plastic parts. Mask off the contact areas and spray. Plasti dip comes in many colours and might require multiple coats.

[General Questions and Answers] Durion:
Hello, I recently got a new android device, and I have been looking online trying to find a root; after a couple of days, I managed to find one, but however I am unable to do the steps. If you want to check it out at github (Unkn0wn0ne/RootMyValet)

Here is what the steps are;

Step 1: Push the su binary to /data/local/tmp using adb push su /data/local/tmp

Step 2: Push the roothandler binary to /data/local/tmp using adb push roothandler /data/local/tmp

Step 3: Set the roothandler binary permission using adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/roothandler

Step 4: Push the installsu.sh script to /data/local/tmp using adb push installsu.sh /data/local/tmp

Step 5: Set the installsu.sh script the execution permission using adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/installsu.sh

Step 6: Install the APK using adb install RootMyValet.apk

Step 7: Start the app on the device, hit the button that says "Push SU Binary"

Step 8: Wait about a minute

Step 9: Enjoy your root!

Every time I try to follow the first instruction, adb returns:Cannot stat 'su' no such file or directory, I suppose thats because there is no su file in the download, and when I run the .bat file, it just runs through a list of commands and says my Valet should be rooted, but it never even reboots. Am I supposed to download the su binary myself? Hopefully someone can clarify some things.

Ive also attached a zip of the root files.
[General Questions and Answers] Yamaha169:
two things

Yes Downlaod the SU binary yourself... I don't see it supplied either,

secondly when you go to line/ STEP 5 .... 755 will not be a valid code with shell... it should say

Step 5: Set the installsu.sh script the execution permission using adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/installsu.sh

otherwise you also get a bad command....

ALSO... after completing the Adb commands... I have the apk and binary installer fully functional... hit push binary... and it says it pushing...

I wait... then it just goes back to the (push binary) button... without any changes...

Nope, went smooth as butter. I installed Xposed and every module went without a hitch. Super SU works fine.... Go for it.
