[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DerpMagoo:
I had the ne9 version and immediately odin flashed to NCG and rooted. Then I SU'd, busyboxed, then safestrapped. Flashed alliancerom over my system after testing it on a different partition. So now I have alliancerom running and have customized the heck out of it.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muniz_ri:
Yes, it's possible to root the latest firmware(NE9). See here: http://xdaforums.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/general/how-to-root-g900vvru1ane9-t2836201

And with any luck we should be able to keep root on any subsequent updates if not with the kernel swap method with other methods.

If you want to go with windows phone get the htc one m8. If you want to go with android go with the lg g3.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Without more information about how you use a smartphone (or how you would like to use one), whether you're already invested in either the Android or Windows [Phone] marketplaces, and what kinds of things are important to you... there's no way to tell you.

The 1020 has by far the better camera, and will probably have better battery life.

The S5 has a bigger and better screen, and more features.

The S5 has much better specs (but Android needs better specs for a good experience than WP8 does).
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdau:
it depends...

It highly depends on what you want, galaxy s5 probably has more features better battery backup (the difference is marginal though and depends on usage) but lumia 1020 has a better camera and a more stable OS.

What do you prefer, Android or WP. I use lumia 925 and i have used Android before. I prefer WP now but it has its own limitation which however should not be a dealbreaker. I prefer WP for its simplicity, stability and its improving everyday

HTC has got a poorer camera compared to other high-end devices, find lumia 930 instead. i have little or no objection about lg g3
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dysje:
Don't buy either. The 1020's only benefit is the camera and they're releasing a new 1020 like phone within the next 4 months most likely. The rest of the hardware in the 1020 is far from impressive. The 1520 and 930 camera is not better than the Lumia 1020 camera.. but it IS better than the S5 camera, by quite a margin since the Cyan update! Only to get better with Denim. Remember the Lumia 1020 has a few other drawbacks too, like a really slow camera (amazing pictures, but that thing is SLOW).

The S5 is a phone with a lot of partially functioning gimmicks and Android. It's only a consideration if you REALLY need specific things Android offers over WP8.1 But since 8.1 and 8.1 Update the list is shrinking rapidly. The LG L3 isn't much different from the Samsung S5 honestly, besides having a little less bloatware and a different setup for camera and all. Also the Samsung is a little smaller, which I personally prefer. 5.1" is really the maximum for me. I also prefer the amoled of the samsung over the LG screen. Sure the LG has a lot of pixels, but battery suffers for it a little and the difference between the samsung and LG .. I just couldn't see clearly enough to overcome the benefits of the amoled screen. And you won't notice the difference between 3GB and 2GB of ram. The LG is a phone that fights with specs, where they don't matter all that much for real world performance.

The HTC One M8 For Windows Phone (wtf name) looks OK, but it's also quite a lot more expensive than the 930, while offering very little benefits. If those differences are important enough for you, go for the HTC. But me personally, I hate the HTC design as it's way too geeky, while I love the green 930. Also camera is quite important to me, so that makes the HTC not an option anymore (the camera really is awful compared to Galaxy S5 and Lumia 930).

Like many I was a long time Android user and for some really weird reason I suddenly came home with a Lumia 925. After using that for a while, I just can't go back to Android. But if you're not spoiled by WP yet, your options are still open. I wouldn't hesitate for a second anymore and get a Lumia 930. It obviously offers everything the 1020 does and a lot more. Couple it with a DT-903 with the breathing light and it's the best you can get right now. (http://www.nokia.com/global/products/accessory/dt-903/)

I'm using a tasker task as a shortcut when swiping up the soft navbar, to launch expanded desktop. This way i can easily toggle expanded desktop to enjoy the full screen when browsing etc. Is it possible for someone to create a toggle between the soft navbar and the hardware navbar, so i can add it to my task? So when the One is in expanded desktop it uses the hardware navigation-bar, en when not its using the software navigation bar? If this is even possible.

i bought the tech armor tempered glass, not with this case in particular, but am really happy with their product. i was super wary of it overall, as with all screen protectors, make sure you get rid of all the dust before you stick it on. i've been happy with their oil-resistant surface

Bought one

I bought mine from here: http://www.expansys-usa.com/lg-slim-guard-case-for-lg-g3-black-262011/

Works great with my Verizon variant and Qi charger. Love how sleek it is. Two major issues I have with it. The lip is almost non-existent, practically flush with my tempered glass screen protector. I would have preferred it to be a little higher for better protection. And secondly, it adds absolutely nothing as far as grip-ability goes. Not sure how long I will keep it for those two reasons.

All LG G3 cases work with all variants of the G3. The body type is the same, as well as size and shape. Case are not provider specific.

UPDATE:

DOH! Wish there was a way to delete your posts. I'm going to assume you also want wireless charging to work as well since it appears the slim cases allow that.

I guess in that case, yeah, where do you find one that is VZW compatible?
[Verizon LG G3] Bxrider117:
I bought this one. It took about 3 weeks. It weekends perfectly. Qi charging worthless as well. I bought the white one.
[Verizon LG G3] jfriend33:
White one on eBay sold today used. Some fool was trying to sneak away paying only 3 bucks but I made sure he paid at least 20 for a used one by bidding at the last minute. Sneaky guy outsmarted me. I kinda wanted it lol.

I know! I just want a black one... And totally want a aqua mint quick circle case (but not until lollipop and xposed are working on the vs985)

But this case... Is so nice.... http://www.mobilefun.com/45814-lg-g3-quickcircle-snap-on-case-aqua-mint.htm

I will buy several oem cases for my g3 if the g4 is just incremental update....
[Verizon LG G3] IamPro:
I rather spend now on an OEM superior product then same amount on an inferior, off brand case(s) that does not offer the same functionality or pulchritudinous.

Ordered mine Fri, they didn't have it in stock (even tho it said it did) so going to be a long wait. Will update thread with pics when I receive case.
[Verizon LG G3] jfriend33:
Cool.

If I knew the lg g4 was crap or didn't have root or verizon compatibility, I'd buy the slim guard and the zero lemon case. And use the phone another year.

I just ordered 4 spigen cases for the lg g4 for $12 I couldn't resist.
[Verizon LG G3] IamPro:
They also offering LG G3 case too, yes $3.6 was too good to pass up even after buying the Slim Guard :laugh:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] brmcguire:
I just picked up another 8525 after returning the first one to checkout the Blackjack. I wanted to make sure I at least tried it before my 30 day return policy kicked in. I noticed on my second 8525 the keyboard does not lock into PDA mode as secure as my first one. It seems that the top part of the phone locks better then the bottom. So when I hold it has a phone I tend to slide the keyboard open a little. Has anyone had these issues? It just seems to easy on the second one to unlock/open the keyboard.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
I'm afraid this is a fairly common problem. The metal runners/sliders have small indents at each end (cannot see these unless device is dismantled) that create the click into place when the sliding blocks attached to the base part slide over them.

These indents are often too shallow to create a nice firm click and in extreme cases the actual runner has sprung apart where small micro welds have broken.

There are fixes for this but only for those that don't care about their warranty and want to dis-assemble the device. I have done this fix and it now requires a very firm two thumbed push to open. However I do not recommend you do this when there is the possibility of exchange/return or repair.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] brmcguire:
I have not done it yet, but plan to soon. To clarify what your fix does is that it tightens the sliding keyboard rails? or provide a better click when its closed?

sliding keyboard then freezes

:confused:

hello, I got my device ! I'm very happy but when I slide the keyboard, and here the left 'click' then it freezes.

It is very strange, is there anything I can do ?

Thanks in advance for any suggestion
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] brmcguire:
I don't think the "clicking" mechanism is what's making your device freeze. I believe its the display going from portrait to landscape mode what's probably making it freeze up. Have you hard reset to make sure there is no 3rd party today plugins that are having issues with switching to landscape mode?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] dam:
sliding keyboard, frozen device

dear brmcguire, thank you for your answer. I think I have to be more precise.

When I slide the keyboard and stop before the "click", it is ok, it moves to the landscape mode without problem. Then, when I push untill it locks, on the right lock it is ok but when pushed untill the left lock, then it freeezes. To be precise, "freeze" means that the menu bar opens, and the tactil screen does not answer anymore to the pen, (I can still use the buttons).

That is why I believe it is a hardware malfunction, but I'm still a newby:(

Does anybody had a similar problem ?

Any help appreciated:)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] brmcguire:
Ok, I see. It does sound like a hardware issue. I would try exchanging it for a new one.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
I think we're all agreed it has to be hardware. There is no software that operates when the "left" edge clicks into place. There are two circuits that operate softwarewise when the keyboard opens

1. There is a small magnet operated switch that changes portrait to landscape and that's working fine,

2. The light sensor above the "p" key top right which operates the keyboard backlight.

I don't think either of these is responsible.

At a guess either the Multi connector Mylar Cable for the screen/digitizer connection is getting trapped/pulled/stretched and partially breaking its connection or the click into place is creating an internal squeeze against possibly the "windows" button hardkey next to the Green Phone Key.

I think like brmcguire that I'd get it back to shop while still in warranty perhaps after doing all the usual things like a hard reset - just in case we're all wrong and it is software.

Or you just never quite open it far enough to click into place. I do this a lot, partly because I've got a really firm click into place on both right and left sides that if I'm just quickly using keyboard I find I can get every key without the final clicks.

Mike

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infinitephase:
hi everyone, im a newbie and im having a little trouble understanding and fixing my phone.

so ill start at the beginning, i bought a note 3 from at&t N900A and then moved out of the US (after contract expired and i sim unlocked with the code they gave me.)

I could not connect to at&t servers from outside US to OTA update. (i dont remember if i was mj5 or mi9)

So i learned about rooting while trying to update and decided to use kingo root app and got root access

then i installed safestrap 3.71 for a custom recovery, then i backed up my stock rom and made a new rom slot. Then i resorted my stock rom to rom slot 1.

this is my mistake: i flashed the knoxraid rom from here

http://galaxynote3root.com/att-galaxy-note-3-roms/knoxraid-kitkat-rom-for-att-galaxy-note-3/

however i forgot to do the data/factory wipe. To make matters worse i realized this and pulled the battery out after about 20 seconds (the download bar was about 10% complete)

when i put the battery back in the phone went straight to recovery (recovery and download mode were the only ones working)

i started panicking as this was my first time rooting/installing roms and tried to find a solution

i found one and used this:

http://www.droidviews.com/how-to-unbrick-att-galaxy-note-3-sm-n900a/

i flashed all the files correctly and odin got to about 95% and the said FAIL

i panicked again when i turned my phone on and it went to an error screen saying firmware upgrade incountered an issue etc.

before i harm my device further i would like to know what to do (i can still get to download mode)

odin mode say it is A2 so i belive that is mj5

i want to know: should i reflash stock mj5, and if so please provide link

should i do this: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=48243768&postcount=1

should i use the N900AUCUBMI9_OneClickBin.exe

or should i flash nc2 files found here: http://xdaforums.com/note-3-att/general/n900aucucnc2-odin-files-t2838117

will the nc2 kitkat brick my device? keep in mind it is running A2 which im sure is mj5

Thank you everyone in advance :):):)
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andygev35:
NC2 won't brick your device, but it'll upgrade your bootloader to A3 which will prevent you from ever downgrading back to MJ5 (not that you'd want to anyway). I'd just go with NC2 since it's rootable with TowelRoot anyway. Also, in your case I'd recommend using the 4-file method rather than the 1-file method since it's an upgrade from 4.3 rather than just a restore to stock 4.4.2.

You might want to consider adding the Pit file too to repartition your phone just in case anything got messed up in the failed odin flash that would definitely clean everything up. It might be overkill but I don't think it would hurt to do since you're doing a factory reset with the 4-file install anyway

Is there another way to swipe sdcard with usbstorage?

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TPD-21:
Based on my experience in the previous build, swap storage works well in CM11 by TC. I think the last release was also definitely work.

Ps. "Oh..yeah, there something I forgotten to tell you. Before you want to swap storage, it's good once you first back up the data from SDCard1, or move at all your data to the harddisk. Because if not, there is still the possibility of some data previously stored in SDCard1 (because the "swap-storage aren't so perfect) will be mixed with Internal Storage data.

In conclusion: Better entirely clear storage space on SDCard1, for swap-storage process for all data from internal storage. (Suggestion only by me)." :)

Hey all:)

Asus has thrown their hand to the Smartwatch market. This Android Wear device features a curved display similar to that of the Gear S, the specs are not far off either. Its a nice looking watch with a leather strap that is certainly an improvement over some of the plastic straps we've see on some smartwatches.

I like this smartwatch better than others, it has nice leather strap, sleek design, curved screen.
