Hello all!!

I have been working on a new communication tool, bored of chats, i thought...why not feel? when someone you love is far away, the phisycal feelings are completely lost...so, like apple did with his new watch (that about heartbeat of contact) i had this idea long time ago and decided to go for it...

So, here it is, its easy to use and simple, just add your contact, share your data with your contact and linke together. Now you can start a touch even with them, and when they touch your fingerprint, both devices vibrates and a message is shown if set (this way you can be sure your contact did read the message).

EDIT: forgot to say....for it to work your contact need to download the app too, its obvious, but got some emails about this xD

You can download it from here completely free:

http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.golgorz.flinked

Right now you only can have 1 contact.

Pleas any feedback or comments would be very appreciated.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrXHonduras:
Hi all, I will comment that I bought the LG MS323 MetroPCS L70 ... All was well until one day I thought of 512 RAM were too few to me.

I took the phone and used SWAPPER 2 to create a virtual memory of 256 MB in the Micro SD, was configured correctly and worked fine.

I used my phone normally after 30 minutes to make the changes SWAPPER 2 and at the end of my working day connected my phone to copy some files from my PC to the Micro SD. After I turned it off normal and decided to turn it back on going to the cell not normally starts with the logo of LG, I did not give importance and tried to start the normal mode of LG L70 recovery which never started, then tried to flash it with the STOCK ROM LG L70 .... But by no means let me do it, not because it starts in DOWNLOAD mode ... I'm worried because if I connect my phone to the computer only open two folder called "image" and "VERINFO" (see image called "001.jpg").

In the folder called "image" there are several files (see image called "image.jpg") and folder called "VERINFO" I get a TXT file that opening just says "M8610AAAAANLYD1034202.2" (see image called "verinfo.jpg")

You have more knowledge of this problem that I have.

Can you help me to fix the "brick" and enter to the DOWNLOAD mode and FLASH my phone normally and install the factory ROM.

Thanks in advance.

So I'm 17, a girl from the uk and basically I just feel like I really just want a boyfriend, I want to feel loved and have cuddles and conversation with someone special. At school I have friends that are boys but none of them am I very close with. Everyone in my school kind of keeps to themselves if they don't know eachother and that's the problem because It's hard to talk to guys in school because id also feel awkward if I approached someone aswell

I don't say that I'm ugly and I do think that I dress up quite nicely, also im quite sociable and I love to meet new people, if I got more of a chance to meet guys id have more of a chance to meet the right guy.

I feel like guys like to talk to me because I'm not very awkward to talk to but none of them really find me 'attractive' and I just feel like everyone's in such happy relationships and I just want that. I've started using tinder because I just want somebody to talk to, I'm sick of being alone

Hey guys I ordered a Samsung S3 battery off ebay.. and whenver this battery reaches percentage to 96-98 it never reaches hundered all it does is go back in percenatage .. to 95,94, even back to 80 and this happens when its plugged in.. why would it do that? Is it a defective battery and should I return and ask for refund?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Sounds like it. And I would ask for a refund or replacement. I just got a "new oem" battery off eBay that has problems. Of course they asked me to go through the full drain full charge cycle a few times, cycled twice to humor them. I waited the weekend out and it was still happening. Sent my message asking for an exchange or refund and they are sending a new battery, no charge, and I dont have to send the first one back!

But I have seen similar problems as yours on a few aftermarket ones. If it's a reputable brand I'd go for a replacement. If it's some odd generic, I'd ask for a refund.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] YPG70:
Oddly enough I got my replacement in mail yesterday and same thing happened . i read some bad reviews about the battery in negative reviews.. but I thought I would give it a try turns out its a fake battery i guess.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
I don't usually condone this, but if you decide to try asking for a refund you may need to fib a little and tell them you got another from a different source and it works just fine. Otherwise they may try to refuse by saying it's your device and the battery is just fine....if they are a decent and reputable seller though, that shouldn't be necessary. (It's not always their fault if they've received fake/knock-off/defective parts.

For got to ask before, but is there a date on the battery? If it's over a year old it could just be bad from non-use.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] YPG70:
Got a full refund.. thanks problem solvd.. will be ordering from Amazon.. uggh ebay sucks .. everything is defective including sd cards and stuff. LOL
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Yeah, 8 verrry picky when ordering parts on ebay. I only use oem unless I have no other choice. If you're very careful and pay extremely close attention to their wording and pics, you can often figure out which is real and which isn't. It's really lame how many sellers (even very highly rated ones) are so willing to sell cheap knock-offs and to try and dupe people with phrases such as "brand new oem replacement"!

I guess technically, they can get away with that one because they are selling a part to replace the oem one. Doesn't make it right though!
[General Questions and Answers] Physxtron:
So ever since I heard about rooting Android devices I innediately done some research on how to do it and I did it. I have had this root on my Samsung Grand Duos for a while now and all I have done is have a few apps (Lucky patcher, Freedom, and Exposed with 1 plugin or w.e) and I am pretty sure I can do far more than just that, so that's why I made this thread. I have a few questions I would like to be answered if you know anything about it.

1) What are customs ROMs and what can I use them for?

2) I am a developer and I have helped make some apps for both iOS and Android, would my root be useful in any way?

3) When I tried to upgrade my version of Android it told me that my version was modified, is there any way I can upgrade to the latest version? And would it remove my root?

4) Is root only compitable with specific versions? Like when a new version comes out, can you root it immediately or do you have to wait for something to do the root process again?

5)My device storage is pretty small and it makes it a pain in the ass to install apps, is there any way that I can edit that? (I am probably going crazy with this. lol)

Thank you.

Bump, would still like some help.
[General Questions and Answers] nico331999:
1) 3) 4) a custom Rom is a modified android, mostly based on clean aosp. The example CyanogenMod: you can choose between different Android versions. And with a custom ROM you have great efforts such like theming engine, overclocking or other nice features that are really useful but uncommon in stock ROMs. So I recommended anyone who decides to root his phone to flash a custom ROM neither a stock root
[General Questions and Answers] ishaang:
A lot of the info is available on XDA forums, tutorials, and on Google so I suggest you start doing some research as it will help you understand wholly much better...

1 - Custom roms are what nico331999 explained. Modified android firmware made for each specific phone model by developers. Its their take on android and most come with many extra features, themes, launchers, based on different android versions, etc. Cyanogenmod is one the popular ones, but there are a lot more. You would have to search the forums for your specific phone. In order to install a custom rom, root is not enough there are other things you would have to do which you will again need to find out for your phone. Generally speaking you have to unlock the bootloader, install a custom recovery, then flash a custom rom along with gapps.

2 - If you develop apps which utilise root access you can allow them sort of 'admin' access to everything on your phone, so you can perform any task with the app which requires such access. One example is replacing system level apps.

3- If you install a custom rom it will have its own version of Android, usually they are updated versions. You can download the FTF file for the most updated firmware version for your phone and then flash it on your phone. You'll be able to search online for instructions and downloads. A new firmware will remove your root and you will need to root it again. You can search for pre rooted firmwares though to avoid that step.

4 - Yes, you have to search for a rooting method for each firmware version of each phone. Developers (great guys) figure out these methods and post them online for the world!

5 - If your device has SD card support you can install many apps on the SD card to save some space using apps such as Apps2SD or Links2SD. You can move all your media to your SD card. If your device doesn't support SD cards I suggest you move as much data as possible to your computer, and maybe use cloud storage at the same time. Also, since you have rooted your phone, you can use an app like Titanium to uninstall bloatware (unused apps which you cannot usually uninstall).

All of this stuff seems like a handful when you first get into it, but you need to get out there and start researching these topics for it to all fall together in place...
[General Questions and Answers] nico331999:
I have to add something with apps to SD: some manufacturers (especially Samsung) have a very weird external storage handling (called emulated storage) which doesn't allow you to move your whole apks. It only saves user data.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bytecode:
Hey guys, my Nexus's been overheating lately, but not in a "conventional" way (ex. some process eating the CPU or wakelock madness). I am running the latest official PA build and franco r63 from about two/three weeks, using ART runtime, Veu theme (if that's any important) and everything's been running butter smooth, always, no battery problems (I solved my wakelock problems with google play services blocking some services I didn't need like wearable stuff a week ago).

Yesterday while in my pocket, the phone got hot. There was no process in the background or wakelock eating the CPU so that was downright wierd. The problem is it keeps doing this. It may not overheat always but the battery runs out lightning fast: this morning, for example, I used it for a while (10 minutes) and the battery went down to 90%. I kept it from 9AM to 11:30AM in my pocket doing absolutely nothing, all apps closed, wifi and data connection off, I pull it out and bam 68% and 39 degrees celsius. What should I do? This thing's driving me nuts, and I don't think it's hardware related (at first I thought the battery was dying, but having sailfish os in dual boot I used that for another couple hours and the battery went down by 3%) and it's not even a software upgrade thing, I'm keeping the same exact kernel and rom from a week now with no reflashes.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
first off 39C isnt even close to overheating. your body temp averages around 37C, so its nearly your body temp. which is extremely normal! your phone is allowed to reach 105C cpu temp(and 60C battery temp), which it then will shut itself off, to cool off. water will boil at 100C at sea level. so you might have issues, bit they most certainly are not issues with "overheating".

---------- Post added at 05:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:50 PM ----------

it can be anything. can be your choice of apps, can be your choice of rom and kernel(could be your setup). it can very much be your network signal quality(phone and data). if you are very worried about it, or just cant figure it out, i would flash the factory img and just start over.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bytecode:
I meant overheating compared to the usual 30-32 degrees I have when using the phone, and the network signal quality is always the same, as the setup and the apps. That's why i am perplexed..
