Hey VZW G3 friends, anyone got an invite open for Google Inbox? I'm looking to give this a try.

I was just wondering what you guys feel about the new Inbox app from Google.[http://www.google.com/inbox/]

I really like the integration with Google Now, and makes email a little less of a tedious experience.

Also, Inbox has an invite system. Since we've gotten so good at those here at XDA, maybe this could be a space for those of us with Inbox invites to share it with others.

To request an invite from Google, please send a mail to inbox@google.com.

In a while however, those who have Inbox will be able to invite friends. Which is when we could share invites with the people in this thread perhaps.

Shoot me an invite here --->

Recieved My Invite​

Gracias. You will totally get a thanks from me! :good:

And remember to pay it forward.

*PLEASE CHANGE YOU POST TO RECEIVED, SO WE DON'T WASTE THESE INVITES. Gracias!

[Verizon LG G3] robertwhitten87:
My thoughts on inbox. It's nice, but it has a long way to go.

I've been using it for a bit now, but the grouping feature really messes with my email sorting. :laugh: I'd send you an invite if I can figure out how to send them. I haven't found that option yet.

-update: Looked into it, and either they don't have user invites going yet, or I just don't have any to give out yet. Also figured out how to disable the bundling and my experience is much better.
[Verizon LG G3] sebastianraven:
How is the feel vs Gmail or Google+?
[Verizon LG G3] robertwhitten87:
It feels like a cleaned up flattened version of gmail. Doesn't really feel like google plus. At least that holds true after I got rid of the bundling. the UI is snappier too, but it's not that much different.

I honestly don't know what the big deal is here :eek: It seems pretty similar to gmail just flatter and cleaned up.

update - I had an Invite show up. Enjoy!

I'm out of invites again, but I got down the list to 2nd post. So if anyone comes in here with invites and wants to carry on.
[Verizon LG G3] sebastianraven:
Thanks for this. I'm going to give it a try. As soon as I can invite others I will.
[Verizon LG G3] robertwhitten87:

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] le0.br4zuc4:
The screen on this phone is AMAZING. Beautiful, clear and the colors are incredible (as usual as it is on a Note 4).

I'm glad to see that Verizon didn't disable some of Samsung stuff...

Download booster (as reported by others) is present and works. Loving it.

Stock Samsung browser is also present. I really like Chrome but the Samsung has some cool features and I'm happy to see it's still here.

Fingerprint with PayPal authentication (removed on the Galaxy S5)is here. Really cool.

I just got the phone about 3 hours ago, I'll post more as I find what else wasn't removed by VZW.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] donroja:
Wrong post sorry....
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Hovscorpion12:
Unfortunately not. Chrome bookmarks are synced to chrome. I'm still trunk to find a workaround since I went from 4 years of iOS to Android without my Safari bookmarks until I synced it to my Chrome browser.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] nabbed:
The screen is very nice aside from one thing - the visibility in direct sunlight. Amoled screens just don't have the brightness of LCD.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] le0.br4zuc4:
I had no problem with my Galaxy S5 visibility in direct sunlight, haven't tried the Note 4 in direct sunlight yet (raining day here) but will try it out tomorrow...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Darkangels6sic6:
Turn on auto brightness and have adapt display mode selected. The brightness will reach as high as 750 nits compared to the 460 you can manually set.

Plus the boosted colors and contrast keep the display from washing out as bad.

So much for not having the same brightness huh? Plus even at the same brightness the Amoled displays are less reflective. The higher contrasts plays a big role in that.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] grrump:
With such beautiful colors why are we stuck with such dull icons up top? My only gripe. Aside from that great phone.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] nabbed:
Where did you get this information?

I remember reading a Note 4 review from like phonearena or something, and the best they could get was ~300 nits.

How does the gps work?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] mexiken:
This is not correct. Paypal was not removed on the S5. It just had to be downloaded via the Galaxy store.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] le0.br4zuc4:
Actually, fingerprint authentication with PayPal was removed from the Verizon Galaxy S5. Downloading it from the app store wouldn't work either.

The only way to make it work is to download and install the Samsung Galaxy App Store, download PayPal from there. Also, you need to download FIDO ready support (I think that's what it is called) to make it work.

Droid-Life had a post a little more detailed. You can do your research and see what I'm talking about.

Use Xmarks for bookmarks syncs to any device any os
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] buhohitr:
You should able to export from the old and then import to the new browser if sync is not working.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] mexiken:
It was removed from the ROM's on all US models IIRC. Verizon was no different. The only difference was the NNL app I believe you needed in addition to the Paypal app.

I'm well versed on how to do it. I've had it on my phone since the day the phone came out.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] boodies:
I am also in love with the phone. The screen is the best screen my old eyes have ever looked at. The phone feels so damn solid with the metal and the baby butt smooth back cover, it's a match made in heaven. Everything I read is so damn clear and sharp. Thank God for Samsung lol. So darn sexy and classy this phone. Enjoy it!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Darkangels6sic6:
That was it. And as far as I remember phone arena did not test the auto brightness.

Even gsmarena does not test that which is very odd. And adapt display adjusts the screen based on lighting around you and will favor saturation. In sunlight will set very saturated with high contrast.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chantelle310:
ok, something really simple somebody may be able to help me with, not sure if its possible, but i want to store a few images onto my fire tv, so i can use them with my xbmc setup as wallpapers, my device isnt rooted, as its the uk version that got sent out today, ive installed dropbox, and es file explorer but their is no option to save. anybody know if this is possible? its driving me crazy. ive also tried uploading with the amazon cloud drive app, the pictures show up on the photo section on my home screen, but thats it... is their any way i would find these in the root access?

thanks
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] collindv:
I think you should be able to use adb to push them to the SD card. Try one of the fireTV utility apps for a GUI.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AFTVnews.com:
Connect to the Fire TV via ADB (WIndows guide and Mac guide)

Then use the command:

adb push C:\path\to\image.jpg \sdcard\

This will transfer any file from your PC to the \sdcard\ directory of your Fire TV. Root is not needed.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chantelle310:
You guys are the best... Thank a lot!

?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chantelle310:
having a little trouble, could you tell me where im going wrong?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] collindv:
Change the c:\path\to to actually be the correct path to the image file on your computer (for example c:\users\images\Photo.jpg)
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chantelle310:
Will give that a try now.. Thank you.

New ground for me... Can you tell lol
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tight_wad:
Since you want these in XBMC, you can do in XBMC using the file manager too.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chantelle310:
Can I do it directly from my mac without having to sideload?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chantelle310:
Still no luck
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] collindv:
I don't think its finding the adb program. Are you running the command from the folder where adb resides?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AFTVnews.com:
The command is slightly different between Mac and Windows. The command I gave you is for Windows. Here is what you should enter since you're on a Mac:

First, change to the directory where you have adb by running this command:

cd /Users/channy/Desktop/platform-tools/

Then move the file to your Fire TV by running this command:

./adb push /Users/channy/Desktop/platform-tools/wallpapers/Breaking-Bad-Simpsons-2362199.jpg /sdcard/
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chantelle310:
absolute life saver, ive given myself the biggest headache trying to fix this all day, thanks alot, :D

ps, been following your page on twitter for a while :) just realised
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AFTVnews.com:
Awesome. Glad you got it working! And glad you're enjoying the site.

Here are a couple tips:

If you move the adb file from the platform-tools folder into your /Users/channy/ folder, you can just open terminal and start running "./adb" commands without first doing the "cd..." command.

Also, on mac you can drag and drop files into the terminal window instead of typing the full path to the file. For this case you would type "./adb push ", then drag the image onto the terminal, then type " /sdcard/". Note the space at the end of the first part and the beginning of the second part.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chantelle310:
Even better.. Thankyou for that info. Whilst I caught you online.. Little off topic but do I need to block OTA updates? I plan on eventually rooting when/if it becomes available. And if so... The only way I can do this as I'm on stock firmware would be to use the block domain methods with my router?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AFTVnews.com:
If you have any interest in rooting it's always best to block updates. At the very least that way you can choose whether you want to install the update or not.

If you're not rooted, your best option is to block the update domains via your router. If that isn't something you can do, you can always sign up for a free OpenDNS account and block the domains that way. You would just need to enter the OpenDNS DNS IP addresses into your Fire TV's settings, just like in this guide.

You're awesome. Thank you very much. My xbmc setup is now looking exactly how I wanted it with your help.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
Framaroot is a free program and it had its own section on Xda, just search for it.

I do not beleive it can root the z3vPlus, there is only sony devices on the whole of their supported device list and they are older phones released before the latest patch was installed on the Z3 series.

Also, as for installing lollipop, Rom manager has never supported xperia devices.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistermojorizin:
So no root yet?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
No root for the Z3v and the current method to root other Z3 varients is unlikely to work for the Z3v as it needs information that can only be got from a rooted device. The current method has only worked becuase some people rooted by unlocking the bootloader (A method that always works) and gathering the required information to enable the tool to work on locked bootloaders.

Since the Z3v bootloader is not unlockable there is no way to get that information, hence no root.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dinc User:
Still nothing? I really love this phone, but the lack of root and cases is making me regret getting this phone. Support for it is almost non-existent.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InVez:
Hey Guys,

I have a question.

i used to have the Galaxy Note 3 , rooted it and did alot with it. Now i have a Note 4 and i want to root it. But my problem is this :

When i am going to root it can i also update my firmware manually without making backup? cause i am gonna stay on Stock Touchwizz. I want to Root it and if For example Android 5.0 comes out i want to update it without losing data or without resetting the whole phone.

Cause without root you can just accept your update through OTA or through Kies without losing any data and you dont need to master reset the phone nor make any backup. I want this method rooted through ODIN also, and is it possible. Cause on my note 3 i always made a backup and than needed to flash the new firmware and than restore backup.

help me out with step by step method if it possible
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dannstarr:
I'm sorry, but otas aren't clean either my friend. Conuntless people experience weird battery drain, force closes etc following an ota.

With in days of the 5.0 update hitting note 4s, there will be hoards of people wanting too know how they can go back to 4.4.4... Mark my words.

The fact that it includes a move from dalvik to art is only going to make the whole process more troublesome than it usually is.

Just individually back up your data through the specific apps if they have the capability, and uses sms and call back up apps if you really need to keep that stuff too, and just clean install yourself for the smother experience
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InVez:
Thanks for the tip that it will be dalvik to art.

didnt knew about that.

So lets say for example if a 4.4.5 comes out and i am rooted on 4.4.4 stock samsung, is it possible to download the stock 4.4.5 and flash it through Odin without losing data?

normally i used to make backups through Titanium and restore it. But i am bit tired of flashing a new stock and than restore backup.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] honhan0904:
If you root you still can upgrade your note to android 5.0 via odin but it will not eraser your data, only lost root acces. I have try in my tab long time ago , the day honeycomb upgrade to ics so you dont have to worry ;)

This post seems rude and impatient. I realize you were asking for help with a legitimate question, but you asked it the complete wrong way. A quick search would have shown you that Bump was released for all G3 variants on October 10th. It has been 2 weeks since the bootloader was unlocked and Team Codefire has not publicly released the method to Bump kernels yet. Reading just a few of the G3 threads for any device would have given yiu your answer and so many people are already discussing this.
