[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PGHammer:
Hence the shocker - battery life (and graphics performance) are BOTH better with N vs. MM. Also, starting with L, some games actually have a floor level of Android they require; however, I can't say that it is due to the multicore prevalence in newer devices (I also have the Snapdragon-driven Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 to compare it to heads-up), and the game performance is not that much better on the S7 compared to even the GNex - and this is with both running MM or both running N. I also have a Mediatek-driven Lenovo A7-30F that upgraded from stock KK to stock L (lack of custom ROMs) and I saw the same rather surprising performance increase (going from KK to L) that the GNex did going from JB to MM (or even N). MaterialDesign (which started with L) is not a performance pig (there's a ton of data just from L that proves that much); however, theming CAN be a performance sapper; if performance is that much of a concern, you may want to consider running as close to bone stock as possible (I'm currently running a very plain-Jane MM on my GNex, despite my actually preferring PureNexus 7.1.1; for some reason, I have issues with having to reboot the phone to get phone calls with any N build, which I do NOT have with MM - the phone-call issue is, in fact, the only issue I've had with N. (Surprisingly, I didn't have the GPS issue with N that a lot of folks have been reporting.)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PGHammer:
I've found myself pretty much dragged back to JB/KK - and amusingly, it's due to trying to use my phone AS A PHONE - not anything else. In order to have any sort of decent connectivity, I need LTE band 13 - that LTE band that is unique to VZW and the MVNOs thereof - and this is especially true in the exurbs. UNfortunately, most post-KK ROMs have rather severe issues with their LTE radios - so far, the exception is, rather amusingly, LineageOS 13/14, which is almost as bad in 14's case - and won't work AT ALL in 13's case - hence my rather frustrating dropback. Android HD Revolution drops back TOO far, so I now have Slim 4.4 toro installed for more non-phone testing. It works okay connection-wise - including LTE band 13 - the next test issue is apps and games. How many of you that have insisted on sticking with Android 4.x have done so due to your need for specific LTE bands that newer ROMs have issues with?

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liorderei:
hi guys, with all the problems kitkat is giving to us with the sd-cards, I thought that at least music will be playable through it.

I just put some music on my sd-card, and went for a run, the HTC music app recognized the music but when i pressed play no music came out :(

I tried music from my internal memory and it worked perfectly...

is this a known thing? can it be fixed? and last question, I did researched about it and could not find anything but I read some articles that suggest that android L will support sd-card, is it true?

BTW, I'm on rooted and S-OFF device using latest ARHD if it matters.

cheers :)

I have no problem playing musics from external sdcard.

All my music files are on external sdcard (Don't have much anyway)

View attachment 2938333

Why don't you post in that ROM thread, maybe someone has idea why it doesn't work for you.

BTW I'm on a rooted device with stock ROM and external sdcard writeable fixed.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liorderei:
what do you mean by writeable fixed?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
Means that the sdcard can be writeable. As you mentioned above, google stop the sdcard write access on KitKat, so you need to fix that on your own.

Anyway, what I know most custom ROM has this fix included in the ROM. So ARHD may have that fix included. So ... it's best to ask in the ROM thread as your problem may not related to sdcard read/write problem.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gsmyth:
Must be a Rom issue as I copied over a load of music to my sd card the other day and the stock music player played it no problem. I'm stock unrooted by the way.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] umesh:
Hi,

All incoming file transfers over beam (IR or Bluetooth) in my handset are first received and once completed successfully, it prompts whether we want to accept the file (Yes / No).

Is there anyway to modify this to first confirm file acceptance with a Yes / No and accordingly perform the transfer.

Also can I receive the incoming file on my storage card instead of My Documents. In last instance WM5 received the complete transfer but never saved it due to lack of space in Phone Memory whereas my storage card was empty.

Thanks,

Umesh

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] b-xenon:
1. in all ppc first transfer files next confirm.

2. no, the beam files saved on phone memory. you can move that to storage card after recive.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] vijay555:
There are 3rd party tools to enable you to specify whether to receive, and where to. Can't remember what it's called, Dr something or other. On this forum and the Arab boards.

Please watch-out. Be ware that "bootloader" partitions are a dangerous to be play with. You do not want to touch that in any way!!

I know it is confuse when we talk about all this "boot" related issues. To same the seem related to "bootloader" It is NOT, Well it is on the very basic. But one thing is true USERs under normal circumstances DO NOT touch that part,. In fact, that is the very reason you can not find any BL in the STOCK ROMS. They are dangerous to play with. Wao I said dangerous many time all ready, I guess do not need to say that again.

One thing is Almost sure, I you have problems with the BL partitions chances are you can not do anything to recover. You will need special expertise like JTAG, etc.

There are many reasons to see reboot or loopboot. One is clear described by you

And yourself admits

So to me it is clear is rebooting back in to recovery because you delete the "system".

1) Simplest way to resolve this issue is Use Odin and reinstall a Stock Rom.

OR

2) In the other hand you should be able to put a copy of a Stock Rom in Update.zip format inside a External SDCARD.

Or

3) you can use TWRP and use "Recovery from backup" to see if you can get back to your old files.

Please remember to wipe cache and dalvik before install Stock Rom zip.

By the way I do not chat a lot I am starting to write about a year ago. I use English as a second language.

I seen many people used "bump " like you. I know it seems stupid but, What do you mean by bump?

I guess you are sad that do not get any answer is that the case? Thanks for teaching me this slangs.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
you need to reflash the entire rom. a rom release that instructs you not to wipe system is

usually an update or mod as opposed to a complete rom.

goto the rom section and download a complete stock release. or goto my devhost

archive and look for a stock kernel in the 5210 section.

if you go to SamMobile you will find what you are looking for. it will require you to sign up the wait an hour to download the firmware but it will work like a charm.

sammobile→firmwares→database→GT-P5210→firmware you are looking for.

if you are in canada you now can get the firmware you need unlike before.

Just to be clear, do you owners have to mess with a battery door every time you charge this device? Is that a pain? Does the door wear out over time?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] einfachgaer:
No I don't mess with the USB flap at all, since I've bought a magnetic charging cable.

It does charge slower for me, but that doesn't hurt since I most likely charge it over night.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] festizzio:
My case doesn't allow using the magnetic port, so I've been using the door. It does get a little annoying, but you get used to it fast. If you're careful with your phone, I would recommend using a magnetic charger without a case, just screen protectors on the front and back. I am not a careful person. :P

I find that the stock FM radio app can't send sound to a Bluetooth connected speaker.

I understand that the app requires a headphone to be plugged in to act as an antenna, but then if you select speaker, (even if you have a BT speaker paired and connected) it will still output the sound to the phone speakers.

Most of the radio app in the app store is really internet radio requiring an internet connection.

Could someone recommend a radio app that works over the air?

Hi,

So I was on the nightly for Gummy and also on the nightly for PacMan and I have a problem that started a few weeks ago,

I have a few phone numbers which should get me through a voice response system.. such as 1888-888-8888,,1,5233,115332# , but lately the DTMF is too fast, very fast actually and the voice response system doesn't recognize it.

I saw on older roms there was an option for DTMF in the phone app, but I don't see that option on 4.4.4.

Any help, an app, or modify one of the system files?

Thanks!

Or do i just live with this?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NhatQuangTran:
fixed the messaging problem which was tied to the voice + option though still can't fix not being able to get into the bootloader or recovery since it'll just hang after the sony logo boots up though the device still functions normally other than that

Is there a program or a registry tweak that will enable the qwerty board to stay on longer?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] vijay555:
You must indicate device used. Wizard variants are harder, as the Universal/Hermes have a registry entry that can be tweaked easily.

I've written an app that can force the keyboard backlight on and off (semi-permanently) on the Universal, ignoring the timeout. Unreleased though.

Lol, I controlled it through the hardware of course!

Haven't got a wizard to try though.. just Uni and Hermes for now to test on...

BTW, this doesn't mean I need testers, it means I can't do it without hardware in my hands. It's very low level.

[Verizon LG G3] dmystic1:
Why was the G2 the first to get Volte?
[Verizon LG G3] burkett375:
because that was the device they tested it on leading up to the launch. The G3 hadn't come out yet as they were testing.
[Verizon LG G3] dmystic1:
It's also on the galaxy s5 so when did testing start?
[Verizon LG G3] burkett375:
Not sure, I just remember reading somewhere that they picked those two phones to start testing, and instead of re-writing everything for a newer phone, they just released what they had.
[Verizon LG G3] Eyalkn:
I went to the feature change page for my G3 and didn't see the feature there. Can anybody else here see the feature?
[Verizon LG G3] burkett375:
No one can because Verizon hasn't enabled it yet.
[Verizon LG G3] Mystikalrush:
They just recently got the 4.4.4 update, so it would make sense as to why the S5 just barely got in and the G2 has been there for over a year.

I'm sure once we get the 4.4.4 update we will have VoLTE capability.
[Verizon LG G3] dmystic1:
The waiting game.
[Verizon LG G3] TCPDump:
VZW is in a "Network Freeze" this week, through the next. They are adding a ton of new things. VoLTE is just one of them. They are doing the G3 first because it was test. There is testing on the S5, and G3 as well now. It will be added in the G3 4.4.4 update.
[Verizon LG G3] trent999:
So, is there now a G3 4.4.4 update in testing at VZW?
[Verizon LG G3] whtciv2k:
VoLTE has been rolled out. If you have a compatible phone (either an S5 for a G2) then you will be able to add the feature under the "add features" section on your "my account" page. It also comes with free basic visual voicemail. Once you do that, you should have the "volte" feature box enabled in your "mobile data" settings on your phone. I tested this last night with a buddy who has a G2 and video calls/HD voice calls were sweet. the volte calls were crystal clear.
[Verizon LG G3] trent999:
The VLG G3 came with basic visual voicemail, but I didn't much like it. I guess no VoLTE yet, anyway ?

I will enable it on my wife's G2.
[Verizon LG G3] TCPDump:
Still haven't seen anything hit the test teams desk.
[Verizon LG G3] 318sugarhill:
It's pretty annoying actually. You think you buy the latest and greatest only to find out you didn't. I'm thinking more and more everyday I should have gotten the S5 instead.

My only hope is that the boot loader gets cracked. I don't believe the Samsung bootloaders will ever be unlocked again....but at least some have safestrap.
[Verizon LG G3] chocodough:
So basically from what you are saying, is that for once it is no Verizon's fault, but LG's fault for not releasing an update for us.

Figures, LG still hasn't learned. Bummer is they already released like 3 or so performance updates for the Euro G3, but nothing for the US yet. Dam slackers.

From a few threads I've came across, the Euro updates help with performance and the phone seems a bit more smooth now.
[Verizon LG G3] Jank4AU:
Don't be too negative just yet. Maybe they're working on going straight to Android L? Who knows, certainly not us...
[Verizon LG G3] trent999:
I am not at all sure I want to be required to install new Android L sometime next Spring as the only option for correcting some of the problems and performance issues with the v10b version Verizon shipped on this device.

Aren't some of the non-Verizon versions of the G3 already on 10I or better ?

I would like one update before an initial L release for a better Kit Kat.
[Verizon LG G3] chocodough:
LG should at least fix their bugs in KK before they release L.

Some people may prefer to stay on KK and not update to L, so they deserve at least a stable version of KK with good performance.
[Verizon LG G3] boe:

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NerdFurgison:
You need to root then install titanium backup and uninstall whatever u want. Just be careful not to delete necessary system apps. Or u could install root explorer navigate to /system/app and delete them there. Some might be in /system/priv-app as well. You need to be rooted for that also

I agree it's absolutely ludicrous that you have to modify the tablet just to get rid of the crappy apps they push on you that suck up precious storage and resources, thus voiding your warranty in the process.

Yes the blote goes a long way to detract from my user experience, if it were a simple app that had been bundled with the device and you could simply uninstall it then I could understand.

Overall I'm pretty happy with my tab, so far I haven't really had the lag or browser issues some others are having (knock on wood). Just about any device you get is loaded with bloat though whether it be Samsung, lg, HTC, or whatever. Nexus devices are really your only option for avoiding stock bloat
