[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FoxyDrew:
For smudges, just clean them off, scratches cant really be removed. Get a case AND screen protector for the phone!!! I personally don't like cases, so HERE is a nice alternative, I have one and it works great!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wazowpt:
Hey, i have a lg g2 since last christmas and the camera is very good in some situations but in others is just hideous. Outside when it's sunny or "clear" weather the camera does a great job with details etc, in low light the focus is so so slow and and the camera itself is laggy as hell and the photo comes out ****. But my main problem is video recording, altought it records with high quality the constant focus and unfocus of the camera is anoying and when i save it and go to watch it the video is stuttering , it just isnt smooth or soft if u know what i mean, i have a ipod 5 who records better that this phone because the video comes out pretty smooth, can somebody help me fix it or it's the same for you?

I have installed XCam Lg v5.1.2 but i didnt notice any difference

I just want to be able to record with smoothness because i need to record my soccer games, thank you
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] votinh:
I don't record video much so not much of experiences but totally agree with you on taking pictures. In good, bright condition, the iq is great but in other conditions, images look not so good, especially selfie in low-light, just horrible. I've tried all modes, HDR, Intelligent, Night, .... not much better.

My friend has an old iPhone 5, and we took a few shots at the same spot under the same "not ideal" condition, the iPhone 5 beats this 13MP, OIS-ready hand down.

I felt bad though.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wazowpt:
yes the camera is horrible for this phone, for a 13 MP is really really bad, we cant take selfies unless its outside with good weather but the video recording makes me crazy

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamp0chka:
Just wondering if it is possible to setup Android 4 phone as internet gateway without enabling WiFi tethering?

Use case:

Connect the phone to my WiFi home network.

Set phone in gateway mode (ipv4 forwarding?)

On any other PC in my home network set default gateway to phone IP

In theory Android at this stage would handle outgoing connections for that particular PC.

On the grand scale what I'm thinking about is this:

I have multiple phones that have unlimited 4g plans on them, every time I come back home, phone joins the WiFi network and starts acting as a gateway. On my main routing box (pfSense) I setup multiple gateways (for each phone) and a load balancer. So every time phone appears, gateway changes to UP state in pfSense -> Load Balancing is using that phone as well. When I leave my house, pfSense detects that gateway is unreachable -> removes it from list of load balancers.

I bought Xperia Z2 from euronics a month ago and after few days I exchanged it becouse of gaps.

They couldn't give me new one for replacement so I checked every euronics store in my city (Tallinn) and all of the phones they had were from the same batch 14w25 and with gaps. So I took another one with gaps and I want to return it again but euronics have 14 day return policy and three weeks passed. What can I do now? Is it worth replacing?

Symptoms:

start the phonebook, try to make a call, will crash after a short while.

Somtimes right during trying to answer a call.

Failing processes:

com.android.phone

android.proces.acore

Situation:

Sony Xperia Z1

Android 4.4.4

I think that this may be applicable to any phone or device running Android

Solution:

- Sync Contacts to Google

- Settings/Apps/All Apps

- select "Contacts"

- Force Stop

(Attention will loose contact settings and data after the next step, backup! You break it you own the pieces.)

- Delete Contacts Data

- Settings/Apps/All Apps

- select Contacts-Store

- Force Stop

- Delete Contacts-Store Data

- Settings/Sync/Google/Menu top right /Sync now

After re-syncing the contacts has finished, the issue was cleared.

All,

I'm not able to use my USB connection anymore for activesync and in bootloader USB is not an option.

Is USB the only way to connect to the device for upgrading?

Or are there also other ways to connect?

Is there a maintenance guide for opening the Hermes like there is for the wizard?

It might have something to do with the fact that it got wet....

[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] countolaf:
I picked up a HAM2 from Amazon this week. So far I like everything with one big exception -- audio and video on Netflix and Youtube seem to be out of sync. One of the main reasons I purchased a phone this big was for watching video. I do see at least one other review on Amazon that mentions this problem. I *did* apply the update that was released 10/8 but this didn't fix the sync issue. I've also tried changing the power settings in case the CPU was being throttled and causing this; this did not help.

Do I have a bad phone or is this everyone's experience with Netflix and this device? I chatted with Huawei tech support and was told "Unfortunately, we do not have a fix for third party applications not working correctly with the device. "

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DroidOnRoids:
So we all know the Galaxy Note 2 is past the 18 month period for software updates. Fortunately, Samsung has been pushing out updates past that. Take the Galaxy S3 for example. It got me thinking, will we see anymore updates for the Note 2? Now an update to Android L is probably a dream but is it possible to see one last update to 4.4.4? I'm only thinking about this because of 4.4.2's core bugs that's affecting my experience. High Android OS usage is the main concern with excessive battery drainage. I'm not getting the battery life I once was. Any thoughts?

[XDA Assist] pradhansb:
Hi and thanks for your help,

I am a newbie to this rooting thing, have done a lot of research. I am upgrading my phone which has allowed me to experiment with my former phone: Samsung Note 2, SCH-1605, Android V 4.4.2 (Verizon) and started playing with rooting. I have used Odin 3.07 to attempt to root the phone, but it fails each time at the NAND Write function. There are a lot of threads on this and one suggestion is to use a higher version of Odin. I see 3.09 is available but the button options are different. Specifically, in 3.07, the button PDF is supposed to be used. There is no such button in 3.09. Fortunately, it reboots fine so I am not even soft-bricked on this phone. But I WOULD like to experiment with it.

Is Odin specific to each phone? And, is there a solution for this problem? I have no KIES running or even installed.

Any counsel would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Pradhan

Every so often, my G3 will become unresponsive. Usually happens right after the screen comes on - the interface freezes. Pressing the power button does nothing, pressing and holding the power button does nothing. I have to remove the battery in order to reset the phone.

I did search the forums, but was not able to find any similar threads or posts, was curious if I was the only one having this problem. Any ideas what might be causing this? Anyone else have any luck identifying root cause and correcting the issue?

Appreciate any help you guys can provide.

Are you using ART or dalvik?
[Sprint LG G3] wosiek:
ART
[Sprint LG G3] GuestK0087:
I had the same thing happening while on ART. I switched back to dalvik and it hasn't happened since.
[Sprint LG G3] wosiek:
Is that a known issue with ART? I reverted back to Dalvik, will see if the result is the same as yours. Appreciate the tip.
[Sprint LG G3] meyerweb:
If the problem goes away on Dalvik, I would suspect you have some app installed that gets activated on startup, and isn't 100% compatible with ART. While most apps work fine with ART, not all do. Google has made it clear that the version of ART on KitKat is experimental, and the version on 'L' will be much different.
[Sprint LG G3] Mahapederdon:
I'm on dalvik and my phone has started this. Not sure what I've changed in the last days. Running alogcat but since starting I can't reproduce it.
[Sprint LG G3] Henri Blanche:
I ran into this problem a while back. Since I never used the LG Keyboard I tried to freeze and/or Greenify the darn thing but that caused the phone to just pause for an extended period of time when waking up. Apparently it really wants LG Keyboard to be around. So I just made sure it wasn't the default keyboard. The phone never really became permanently unresponsive; after fifteen to twenty minutes it finally woke up. But who wants that?
[Sprint LG G3] wosiek:
Reverting back to Dalvik appeared to do the trick. It's been a few days, and my device hasn't locked-up/become unresponsive since making the change. Normally I would experience one lock-up/unresponsive event once a day, or every other day.

I have had Google Keyboard set to default input since I purchased my G3; LG Keyboard left a lot to be desired in terms of performance and functionality. I never witnessed my device "wake up" like you described, but to be fair I never let it go for that long, either. Usually after 5 minutes or so my patience would wane and the battery would be pulled. And to your point, no one, and I mean no one, wants to wait 15-20 minutes for their device to return to a usable state.
[Sprint LG G3] scottspa74:
Why are you trying to use ART,moron? ART is explicitly experimental. Use dalvik (like you're supposed to) and see if you still have lockups (which hpu won't, if you use the runtime that is already long established for running android). Duh.
[Sprint LG G3] GuestK0087:
Many users have switched to ART and have seen an improvement in performance. It seems to be device specific as to whether you will encounter issues or not. That being said, I don't think it warranted the "moron" name tag. Just trying to keep the forum friendly. :)

Is there any possible way to flash the new firmware on my Tmobile HTC M8 Phone without haveing S-off ?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
What do you mean by "new" firmware? The latest T-Mob firmware, or the brand new 3.28 (Android 4.4.4) firmware?

For the latter (3.28) than NO. You can't modify the partitions (hboot, radio, etc.) in question by unofficial means without S-off.

If you mean the former (latest T-Mob firmware) then yes, you can update by official means. Either relock the bootloader and run the latest RUU. Or return to stock ROM and recovery and update by OTA.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nysoprano:
If I'm s-off, how do I modify firmware.zip to work with T-Mobile?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
I saw your posts on the ARHD, and if you modified the firmware zip in the past, in theory it should work the same for the 3.x firmware version.

Although it should be said that modifying firmware is potentially risky; as any errors that occur with flashing hboot or radio can result in a brick. Only tinker around if you know what you are doing, and willing to accept the consequences if things go wrong.

Safest course would be to wait for an official T-Mobile firmware to deploy; or flash a firmware verified by other T-Mob users to work.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bamdaschmu:
Hi,

just a quick thought (maybe my thinking is to easy but hear me out):

Can't we just redirect (Via DNS or something else, IDK) the amazon update queries to download a rooted firmware or an older signd (than rootable) official firmware?

We know, what URLs we have to block, so someone must have figured that out, maybe via Wireshark, where the FTV is looking for new updated. So, if you would connect the FTV via eth0 to your pc, to get to the internet: could some piece of software be on the pc to redirect it? So that the FTV thinks: htp://amzdigitaldownloads.edgesuite.net/obfuscated/0aa573bc909901dd4713dc2166eadbdf/bueller-ota-51.1.3.0_user_513011820-signed.bin is new, so I better grab it! But your computer redirects it (via DNS maybe??) to: htp://localhost/obfuscated/0aa573bc909901dd4713dc2166eadbdf/bueller-ota-51.1.3.0_user_513011820-signed.bin , which in reality would be a renamed older firmware (which would be rootable via towelroot), put in the same folder structure, as the original one.

So my question is:

a) Am I thinking to simple and this is just NOT possible in any way?

Or: b) In theory, this is possible, but there are missing pieces of information, we don't have at the moment (like,

how

it checks for an update, not where)

Or: c) Yea, this is possible, let me try it out, don't worry, I'm a professional ;)

Just a thought, so what do you think? If a) than please explain for a dummy like me, why this is just not possible. If b) what information would be missing?

edit: I can't post URLs hence my lack of posts at XDA, so I shortend http to htp, but you get the idea...
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Y314K:
It seems they already tried this. One would have to match the FW's checksum it is trying to download or the downgrade or update fails. In other words it seems like it can't be done.

Unless there is a way to inject the right checksum while loading the older FW. Since your talking about a 3rd party prog ("some piece of software"). But that is way above my pay-grade.

Myself and AFTVNews have both tried this without success :(
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AFTVnews.com:
I tried doing this a few weeks ago. I was able to get the Fire TV to download 51.1.1.0 when it was actually requesting 51.1.3.0. The Fire TV downloaded the update, extracted it, but then knew it was not the version it was expecting. I assume when it gets the update URL from Amazon, it also gets the update version number. I assume it then compares the version number it is told to get with some version information inside the file it downloaded. Here are the relevant log file entries:

D/com.amazon.dcp.framework.IntentEvent( 1358): Intent { act=android.intent.action.DOWNLOAD_COMPLETE flg=0x10 pkg=com.amazon.dcp }
...
I/com.amazon.dcp.ota.DownloadManifestHandler( 1358): Verifying OS update at /cache/bueller-ota-51.1.3.0_user_513011520-signed.bin
...
E/com.amazon.dcp.ota.DownloadManifestHandler( 1358): The OS version from install manifest is 513011520, but 511070220 from update file.

The only way for this to work is to spoof/MITM the information returned from Amazon when checking if an update is available, and that's difficult (impossible?) because the communication is encrypted.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calibaan:
Is the signature done on the whole image (header + payload + checksum etc.) or only on the payload? If only the payload of the image is signed it could be probably possible to find the version in the header and change it to the version it does expect.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbox:
I haven't fully analzyer how the updater works, but the gist of it is it downloads the update and verifies the signature of the entire file. It then figures out which version it is, not sure how it does that though. It's a zipfile, so its not a header payload checksum. It probably reads one of the files inside of the zip to check the version.
