Hi,

Does anyone know if download booster feature on the Note 4 helps improve streaming performance?

I have poor home wifi speeds and average 3g speeds, im hoping that a combination will enable me to stream videos better.

Thanks,

Sam
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] somemadcaaant:
Probably not and you'd suffer a lot more random drop outs, plus you'd have to have enough mobile data to back up your Wi-Fi connection. Upgrade your home DSL instead.

Has anyone the experience with topic?

I want to write the application that will show the money balance at the home screen.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xavierc123:
Hey guys,

First off, I've searched far and wide for any help with my problem but it is such a peculiar situation that I have yet to find someone with a similar situation. I expect if I want to ever use my M8 again, I'll need to send it to HTC and pay a few hundred bucks to fix it. But maybe someone here will have an idea that I've missed.

Shortly after getting my M8, I unlocked my device, rooted it and installed a few roms. Everything was fine save for one major thing: no matter which PC I used (and I used MANY - 3 different windows destops, a windows desktop at the office and my Macbook Pro) the device was never able to mount and make the storage accessible. I knew at that point something at some point had gone wrong. I've long preferred to use a wireless file transfer app to send stuff to and from my phone so I wouldn't have to break out all my cables so I figured it wouldn't be a big deal. I'd make it work.

A few days ago, I decided to try a different rom than what I'd been using for months (HD Revolution - great rom!) and downloaded everything required. I booted to TWRP, wiped the usual stuff and flashed my rom. When I rebooted, I was continually met with a crash as soon as the phone started and was never able to get into the OS. No big deal - this has happened before with other devices, so I didn't sweat it. I simply powered down the phone and tried to get back to recovery. Here's where the problem really kicked in : when attempting to boot to recovery, my phone will bring up the Hboot screen but instantly try to select the first option, thus not allowing me to scroll down to "Recovery". No matter what I do, it brings up the white Hboot screen, automatically selects the first option, gives me some error (I'm at work so I don't have the device in front of me) and tries to boot to the OS. That takes us back to the automatic crash.

Now, I know usually the solution would involve USB and ADB, but like I mentioned at the start of my sad tale, connecting my phone to PC's results either in nothing (Mac) or a "the device has failed" message in Windows. I've tried removing all the phone drivers, reinstalling and using a few toolkit methods - the phone is just never ever detected.

So, that's it. I'm pretty much resigned to sending my phone in and the HTC folks quoted me about $200. I do have a functional phone at the moment so it isn't the worst situation in the world, but if I could fix this I'd be able to using it as my main device again or sell it for a good chunk of change - I just bought it in June.

Sorry for the long read!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InflatedTitan:
As far as the storage issue, never seen that happen before so I'm not sure. When you plug it in to the computer does the phone ask if you want to connect it as a storage device etc?

The bootloader is a very peculiar problem. It almost sounds like you have an img file that its trying to read as soon as you boot into boot loader.

Try to install HTC sync. And make sure the computer has an internet connection when you plug it in via usb.

Try to flash stock recovery fw buddy

Maybe thats problem RUU

Cek mike blg to find all stock recovery fw

After that install custom recovery again
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doughnut:
This sounds a little familiar.

In my experience I've found some firmware versions and ROMs very choppy.

I once had a problem with storage too, couldn't send anything over to my phone.

Fortunately I could access recovery, so used ADB sideload and installed another ROM. And went to another firmware and never looked back.

The last 401.6 firmware gave me all sorts of issue.

If you can access fastboot I'd also recommend new firmware 401.7 is working flawlessly for me with ARHD 21.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattprice86:
I would try putting one of the bootable ruus on your SD card so when it goes to your hboot, it'll read the RUU and install it
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xavierc123:
Awesome, some interesting suggestions here. Would I be able to somehow update the firmware via an SD card without any input from a computer? I managed to get into Recovery last night somehow (maybe letting the battery totally drain and charging it for a while did something) but plugging in my phone when in recovery still won't mount the storage or be recognized by ADB. Would I somehow be able update my firmware from recovery without the need of ADB'ing from my desktop? I've been looking at ROM threads and stuff and noticed that almost every rom requires new firmware or WiFI/radios other stuff won't work....

I'm at work right now so I'll definitely research this in depth when I get home, but if you guys could guide me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it and maybe buy ya' a beer. :)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bobbi lim:
Download a rom that can use the 2.xx firmware. Look around and you should be able to find the roms. There's still plenty out there. Here's a little suggestion, reflash TWRP (or other recovery) through fastboot than grab a SD card and place the rom into the SD card and install the rom using through the use of a SD card. Just remember to do a full wipe before that :)
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eNkrypt:
With Samsung's recent devices they have decided to change the "Menu" button on the lower lefthand side of the phone to a "Recent Apps" button. I was wondering if it were at all possible to get this back to the "Settings" button instead of having to longpress it. Would it say, be possible to reverse them?

I am thinking any sort of change like this is going to require root and then someone to develop it.

Opinions? Does it bother anyone else?

Dear Stympy,

I tried flashing both the versions (S226 and S228) given in your post. However, neither worked. It always failed in the recovery. Then I tried to flash an OTA S220 which worked (as per my last post). Later there were three official updates shown up in my phone, S226, S227 and S228 (of course, one by one). I just updated them and now I am on S228.

Thanks a lot for all the help!

I will bother you if we get a 5.0 for P780 (8GB).

If you want to have a closer look at my ROM, I can pm you a dl link - it probably would be a waste of time though.

I have fixed my hard bricked - Lenovo P780 8 GB phone.

1. When I connect phone to PC, it was not able to recognized in my PC. - Having Windows 10. - NOTE - WINDOWS 10 Needs other driver.

2. I have installed phone driver, but it wasn't working well. [MTK_USB__Driver_GOOOOODDD.zip] & [LenovoUsbDriver_autorun_1.0.10] which was mention & uploaded in different post.

4. With use of SP Tool V3 and rom - P780_S228_8GB_KK_ROW I am able to fix this.

Just note, I was struggling also for one mistake that was I was connecting phone before I press "Fireware + download" button. while use need to press button first then connect phone to computer.

What I WANT now?

Im thinking about Vibe 2.0, as it has desired language, but would love to have TWRP 3.0 as it has ability to backup NVRAM. And of course now I will be trying to restore NVRAM.

Hello, I have a P780 8G S228 150112 version auto updated. Few days back I lost network on both SIMs. After rooting through Kingo Root & using Root Browser I tried changing various modem files provided in your post in troubleshooting forum but not getting the right one which should make my phone catch network everywhere. One thing I could see is that if any modem file size is 4.90 mb (similar to my original modem file modem_1_3g_n.img) only then I am able to get network at few places. If it is below or above 4.90 then both sims are not detected. There are many modem files which may or do belong to an older version than my current S228. Please suggest if I need to downgrade the current version to suit the modem file.
