[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hovscorpion12:
When you first start out with edge you can give verizon any phone, not necessarily the phone your using. If the phone is currently using Verizon Edge and you are edging up, then that phone has be given to Verizon. As for shipping, Verizon emails you the instructions and label. Put your not into a box. And ship it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WilliamSchfr:
If you are adding edge to a line that didn't already have it and you are eligible for upgrade you don't have to turn anything in. If you are with in 1 year of your upgrade they will let you "early edge" that is what I did but you have to send in the phone that was active on the line when you did the edge agreement. I went and got a 10 dollar flip phone off Craigs list and sent it back..... lord like a charm. Make sure you do everything through customer service because the stores have different rules... they want the phone to have been on the line for at least 12 months . Total crap in my opinion but if you go in with a device that's only been on the line for 2 days they will turn you away. Hope that helps! If you have any questions feel free to ask!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JTProuhet:
Just went through this. When i added my gf to my line, i got to talking the guy about being the n4 and edging up from my n2. My contract isn't up until February. I told the guy i wanted to keep my n2 1)because i already paid for the thing 2) its like brand new since i had to make an insurance claim after cracking my screen. Guy said to just activate an old phone and do it. Woke up 4 hours early to get this done. Go to the store only to be told now i have to turn in my note 2 or i cant do it.. I really don't want to let my n2 go
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emtownsend:
So, you were OK turning in the old flip on an early Edge? (My N4 isn't paid off yet, but is eligible for upgrade) How about the $200 Samsung trade-in deal? Can we still take advantage of that or is that for contract buyers only?

And JTProuhet, did you send your old one in with the provided labels or go to a store?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WilliamSchfr:
I'm not sure about the 200 dollar deal and yeah I turned in the flip phone no problem. The rules stipulate that all that is required is to turn in the phone that was active on the line when the early edge is made. So if you do get a flip phone you have to leave it active on the line until you activate the note 4 otlr whatever phone it is you're ordering.

Hello, I'm running an AOSP/CM11 ROM and I hate the camera. I really like the stock one that came in 4.4.3 & 4.4.4, does anybody know of a camera that'll give me a similar UI to the stock one? Thanks.

I REALLY wish I could just find a way to flash the most recent 4.4.4 Sense one for the M8...the one that just hit Verizon's OTA. Probably can't though huh?:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S 4 General] fswings:
My current setup: SGS 4 International [I9505] running Carbon Rom nightly with Philz CWM recovery.

For the past few weeks been looking for ways to run some UK banking apps, specifically Barclays Mobile Banking and the Lloyds Bank Mobile Banking apps. Both state explicitly that they

do not

run on rooted devices. I've tried:

Whole host of hide root apps from Play Store

RootCloak RootCloak @ XDA

The following is a simple guide of one way to solve this problem.

Concept

Set-up device to dual boot. Intent was second ROM would preferably be stock TouchWIz and secondly root free. To enable dual booting, the excellent dual ROM patcher here: [PATCHER][APP] Dual boot any ROM on all Galaxy S4 variants!.

I only use bank apps infrequently so was happy with dual boot solution.

In the end I wasn't able to find a Stock ROM that I could patch and run. So I resorted to CM11.

Guide

Download patcher app and dualbootutilities.zip.

Download secondary ROM, tested with CM11 nightly.

Download Gapps (something the patcher supports e.g. PA Gapps. Choose smallest size possible.)

Install patcher app and patch both secondary ROM (CM11) and Gapps (PA or other) [FOLLOW THREAD INSTRUCTIONS]

Boot into recovery create NANDROID BACKUP! [I had to use this twice when my first few attempts with different ROMS failed].

Install patched secondary ROM and patched Gapps.

Reboot (will boot into secondary ROM)

Login to Google account and install SuperSU (I had difficulty patching zip so downloaded off Play Store). Make sure you reboot.

Open CM File Manager and change settings from Safe Mode to Root.

Go to /system partition and open build.prop file (say yes to Root access)

Find line with "test-keys" and change to "release-keys" and save file.

Change CM file manager setting back to Safe Mode.

Open SuperSU and perform full "Unroot".

Disable CM SuperUser access via ROM settings.

REBOOT if you haven't already after previous step.

Via Play Store install banking apps.

Usage

Normally you would use patcher app to switch between ROMs by selecting first and then rebooting. However patcher app requires root access. To overcome this, reboot back into recovery and install dualbootutilities.zip. Select "Primary" and "Switch" to change ROMs. Reboot then to get back to primary ROM.

So in summary, relatively easy to go from primary to secondary ROM using patcher app, but a little more tedious on the way back (secondary --> recovery --> primary). Acceptable for infrequent use.

Thanks

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bananapeal:
Hello,

I'm running PA 4.6Beta3. This isn't a software issue as the problems started getting worse lately without me switching the rom.

My phone has had a cracked screen which prompted me to replace it, in so doing, bending the battery a little in a corner (to pry it out). I have been experiencing random shut-offs for about a month now. They have increased in frequency and are now daily. So suspect bad battery.

Just yesterday, my cell signal started cutting on and off. it would come back after reset but then go away again. Today it stayed off for a long time. I'm now using my old stand-by focus flash...

That the battery is bad seems certain. could the battery cause the intermittent radio? Maybe I dropped it and antenna connection is loose? Is spending money on a battery throwing good after bad?

The moto G is on sale for $70 at fry's ... a quick and cheap replacement or should I try a second round of repairs on the nexus 4? What would XDAers do?

Thanks in advance for your help and kind words of comfort. :cowboy:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_S:
My phone does the same. Loss of signal followed by shutdown. I also suspect bad battery as the battery discharges when this happens
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bananapeal:
Egads,

Sorry for this post guys... I was just getting a little emotional since it looked like my repairs didn't stick. The cheap Moto G is verizon prepaid only, so not an immediate replacement. I will have to try and fix her again. Hopefully a battery is all it takes. One can hope.

Thanks

I would return back to pure stock through fastboot, and then purchase a new battery and do some testing. Best of luck.

Battery could be bad, and it's also possible when reassembling you didn't connect the antenna wire properly, and is loose inside the case.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] lightfire:
I saw this on another forum. Is this true? It would make it unusable to me, and I just ordered one before seeing this. Do we not have at least 12 GB free for apps?

"..an issue I do not know how to resolve. It comes w 4.3 pre installed but the internal storage is not unified (due to USB storage enabled) so just under 2GB is allocated as app storage. This being the setup on older android version we had the option to move individual apps to the secondary partition b within the app option but this being 4.3 this option does not exist so this really puts a damperbn usability of this device."
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] Coffee Freak:
I'm guessing this is the US variation of the Mate 2 you are taking about. I already have a lot of apps installed and it's still telling me I have 4.2 gigs available for app storage. Hope that answers your question

[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] lightfire:
Thanks! Yes to USA version.

Does anyone know how much memory is available out of the box for apps?
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] Coffee Freak:
If you add what it says is available to the what it says I'm using, it totals 6.81 GB. I doubt that includes system apps, as I said I have a lot installed. I had to keep them all on the phone because the ones I moved to the SD card the widgets didn't load on restart and I wasn't getting notifications.

Hope this helps you.

Sent from my MT2L03
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] lightfire:
Thanks!

But 6.81 is pretty bad - some 16gb phones have around 12 gb for apps. What in the world is taking up so much memory? I need to install copilot maps which are over 4 gb plus all the other software I use. Don't know if this is going to work for me. Heck - I have almost 5.52 gb free for apps on a 8gb moto-g phone
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] Coffee Freak:
Well, screen shots of my internal file system storage. My phone is rooted so I could free up more space deleting some system apps I don't use like Facebook but people had to reinstall the system apps they deleted to get the last update to install, and I don't feel like messing with that. I just disabled them. Can you install your co-pilot apps on the SD card?

Sent from my MT2L03
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] lightfire:
No, I don't think the maps can be loaded on sd card.

Darn - I purchased without checking this out - figured if my 8 gb phone had 5.52 gb free a 16 gb phone would have around 12. My fault for not doing proper research. Everyone was saying how much they like the phone. and I let that sway me. Guess I will send it back as 6.81 gb free in 2014 is almost $99 phone territory.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] Kid_Ding:
Looks like copilot is downloading fine. I'll let you know if I have issues after it completes.

It gives you the option to use extsd as default storage.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] lightfire:
You are showing 12.69 GB available internal storage for apps. Is this correct? Or is it the 10.50 that is available to apps?
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] Kid_Ding:
Yes 12.69 available. But when I go into settings > manage apps it states 5.8gb for apps. I believe it uses internal/external for app data, so I believe you'll be OK
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] gierso:
check in the copilot options. maybe it has the ability to choose where to save the map data

Hi,

I own a 2013 Moto X VZW Developer Edition, which is currently unlocked & rooted. I remember finding a script on here back when I first got it that automatically removed bloatware and enabled tethering. Does anyone know of the thread related to what I'm looking for? Searching hasn't turned anything up.

Thanks!
[Moto X Q&A] nhizzat:
Why not disable the "bloatware" (can't believe people are still worried about bloat when there's only 6 apps taking up 15mb that can be considered bloat) and flash the native entitlement hack instead of relying on a script?

By the way, this belongs in Q&A. You can find the entitlement hack a few threads down.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariombn:
Hello everyone!

I was using the Android L without any problems, but when i saw this post (http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/development/android-lollipop-stock-factory-image-t2908890) - that there is a backup image, for download via TWRP, i did it and followed all the steps.

Everything went fine, but my phone was pretty much dead. no internet connection or phone signal.

So, i decided to install the preview ROM of the Android 5, via ADB (available by Google), but my signal was fluctuating a lot.

Then, i tried to install the Stock ROM 4.4.4, but failed again (fluctuating signal and no 3G or LTE) - Only 2G and my phone is restarting often.

Do you guys have any idea to help me? Or did i screwed my Nexus 5?

Thank you very much.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariombn:
No ... it was the first thing I see.

But I think I found the problem. My IMEI is equal to 0.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Wipe cache and Dalvik cache. Maybe format cache and reflash it in fastboot for good measure. If that doesn't work and you don't have an EFS backup then there isn't anything you can do about your IMEI.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariombn:
Then I heard about OctoPlus Box ( http://octoplusbox.com/) that can do this kind of repair. But from what I saw, it requires a specific hardware.

I will refer you for assistance, but I think they will want to replace the motherboard and it should come out pretty expensive.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariombn:

I've done all the wipes, installed the Stock ROM 4.4.4 and 5.0 Preview, nothing worked. My mistake was to have made a restore of an image that was not on my Nexus 5, what killed my IMEI.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gboss01:
It looks like a clone from the pics. I'm comparing my white S4 to your pics and there's a bit more bezel around the screen on the left and right than my phone.

Also that lock screen just doesn't seem right...

I've handled a few clones and the first thing that gives them away is the Samsung logo at the top of the screen and the Samsung logo at the back of the phone cover.

Samsung quality control would not allow there phone to leave the factory with such poor print of their logo.

Inspect the front logo writing closely and you will notice it's not perfect especially the A and G (the G looks like a C almost).

Also the logo at the back suffers from the same poor print. I noticed your logo at the back is missing letters, not a good sign...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeepankarS:
Just press volume down+centre button+power button.

If something comes up in Chinese or something like that it is fake.

And if a yellow triangle comes and says press volume up to continue..and when you press volume up it mentions your model number with Knox warranty bit and status and stuff..it is real.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrAndroid12:
It's certainly fake.

The corners are less rounded than the real one, the generic fonts on the lock screen are not available on the S4, why is the status bar green?, the bezels look a bit off and finally, unless you're using a wide angle lens, the S4 in your photos look a bit shorter than the real one.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r3daxis:
thanks guys for the replies :good:

yep it was a fake phone, i searched well on internet for a similar looking lockscreen and found that its just a chinese copy :mad: and there are so many out there so be careful for that!

i ended up buying a galaxy s3 4G i9305 as new :victory: so no s4 maybe after some months ;) .
[Sony Xperia ZL] legacygt777:
Newbie question.

Just ordered the c6506 ZL unlocked. I'm using still my HSPA+ xperia play on ATT. will HSPA work on my new phone? Or do I need to upgrade to LTE4g?

thanks
[Sony Xperia ZL] LaZiODROID:
According to gsmarena:

ZL C6506 HSDPA bands are 850 / 900 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100

ZL C6506 LTE bands are 700 / 850 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100

Since AT&T uses bands 850 / 1900 for UMTS/HSPA+, it sounds like you'll be fine.

If you want to take advantage of LTE, you may have to buy a new LTE-capable SIM card from AT&T (in case your current SIM is old or something)

And when you get the phone, make sure there is an appropriate APN entry for your carrier in the settings.

Hello all,

I am running a touch wiz rom, Skyfall, and TWRP 2.7 is my recovery. I was wondering if there are any custom roms for the Samsung Galaxy S4 - SGH-I337Z from Cricket. The codename is 'jflteaio' and I didn't want to brick the device by simply 'trying' one of the I337 Roms. In fact, the only reason I have Skyfall is because a dev(hroark13) confirmed it working on his device on Android Forums. Any help would be awesome! Thanks! :)

I looked in the unified section and I could not find a place to ask questions about my Cricket model of the S4. It said it was only for Development. If at all possible, could you point me in the right direction? Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] bonchien:
Late answer to this question for anyone looking at this. There's not much info. out there about the i337z from Cricket/AIO.

First, install TWRP found here: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4-att/development/cricket-aio-sgh-i337z-jflteaio-twrp-2-7-t2858698. You'll have to install a terminal emulator app from the Play Store to follow the installation instrucitons.

Second, make a backup using TWRP. You'll need this if you flash a ROM and your S4 won't boot.

Third, flash a custom Touchwiz rom. Goldeneye worked on my i337z with 4.4.2, baseband ND3, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2313469. I flashed it as an AT&T i337 safestrap selection in the Aroma settings that appear after you click install in TWRP. Another poster said they liked Skyfall by the same developer as Goldeneye. Wifi didn't work for me when I flashed the Skyfall ROM, but you may just need to change the build.prop file to ro.securestorage.support=true from ro.securestorage.support=false.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Hangampalli:
Just out of curiosity, do you know for sure that roms meant for the i337 won't automatically work on this particular device? Eventually, I want to run a GPe lollipop ROM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] bonchien:
Not for sure,. I've gotten AT&T ROMs to work if the ROM has an Aroma installer to allow you to select to NOT install a kernel, normally shown as AT&T Safestrap. I also was able to install the Goldeneye ROM that does include a kernel. I'm not sure why as there may be some compatibility between the kernels. By in large, most AT&T ROMs that include a kernel would not boot after installing.
