Updating to NG3

Het guys, so today I got ahold of Odin 3.09 and the NG3 update, I applied it through Odin in the AP slot and it DID NOT update my phone to NG3. My Baseband still says AND3 and kernel is 3.4.0-2178781

Tue Jul 22 13:58:46 KST 2014. Anybody have any options i can use without having to downgrade to NCE just to upgrade? LOL...Im kinda at a loss,Ive tried it in download mode twice now and no fu go.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] PS4AndroidHacker:
Plz disregard my message. I'm good now and running rooted NG3.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mroneeyedboh:
I was looking around online to see if there were any alternative ways to turn off the FireTv. I know about the Play/Pause and Select combo, but has anyone heard of this?

This doesnt make any sense to me. If you're using a keyboard/mouse combo ( K400r here ) and you hold Fn+Esc... The FireTv turns off immedately. Both in FireTv screens and XBMC... The white light goes out too... Then click a button on the remote and its instatntly on.

Edited: Also just noticed that on the keyboard, there is a "Power PC'' button at the top that does the same thing...

On my K400r, there is no Fn ( blue lettering ) on the Esc key, so I have no idea whats its actually doing.. Its weird that the FireTV will sleep even in XBMC, which is known as usually not possible ( have to go back to FireTV screen )
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elmerohueso:
Anything that's interpreted by Android as the POWER button, including the key combinations you mentioned, will put the FTV (or any other Android device) to sleep. I've seen mention of some third-party BT remotes being able to put the FTV to sleep with their POWER button.

If you're rooted, my XBMC repo has a screensaver that can put the FTV to sleep, and also my Confluence++ skin can put it to sleep via the XBMC power menu. Both methods simply simulate a POWER button press.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mroneeyedboh:
Good deal bro! Thanks. I'll check it out tonight when I get home

I'm new to the fire.. How can I load just the screensaver? Anyway to just get the screensaver??
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elmerohueso:
No, you'll need XBMC.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mroneeyedboh:
I have xbmc And I see your skin installed ( bought this aftv setup already by a seller.. ) and I also see the screensaver installed.

It is enabled, but it doesn't activate in xbmc. The skin is also enabled...
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elmerohueso:
It only works if you're rooted, and you need to give XBMC root/SU permissions from within the screensaver's settings or the skin's settings.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mroneeyedboh:
I have all of that. Im rooted, I did the SU check and all...
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elmerohueso:
If you have the Power menu enabled in my skin settings, does the Sleep command put your FTV to sleep? If so, then the screensaver should also work fine if you have the settings in my screensaver set to Sleep.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mroneeyedboh:
Yeah .. Figured it out . the screensaver was enabled but not selected under the option under settings/appearance. Thanks
[Nexus 5 General] jdawg0024:
I am running the latest 5.0 build from Google and my friend is running the latest 4.4.4 build. We are both completely stock and have noticed with the last Camera Update that when you switch to camcorder mode it gets considerably darker. I thought they fixed this issue and yet we have it again.

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 General] nomancoolboy:
I think only the viewfinder is dark and not the video recorded ..
[Nexus 5 General] jdawg0024:
Playing the video back seems darker than the environment actually is. Pic 228 is a screen shot from the video and pic 017 is a picture taken
[Nexus 5 General] nomancoolboy:
The videos are darker for me too . i think have done this to maintain the frame rate at 30fps .
[Nexus 5 General] jdawg0024:
That makes sense, but makes the camcorder useless in low light situations.
[Nexus 5 General] nomancoolboy:
Yeah. . looks like we have to use manual exposure control in google camera .

Turns out doesn't work in video mode .

Other camera apps maybe
[Nexus 5 General] jdawg0024:
I was about to say that setting isn't available when in video mode. L Camera is promising, but they haven't started with the camcorder yet. Its just pictures
[Nexus 5 General] darkamikaze:
I think this behavior is intended. I see the same thing happening to my gf's iPhone 6.
[Nexus 5 General] ali262883:
Its in every phone... To maintain 30fps.. Before 4.4.2 videos were brighter but at 25fps.. Videos weren't smooth on 25fps hence google modified it
[Nexus 5 General] nedooo:
Just forget about "stock", I use simple AOSP and camcorder is actually brighter than actual scene...
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] RealiZms:
Just an observation which I'm pretty sure is software related. The same chipset with less ram is in my brother's moto g and there's no perceivable lag on that phone. An occasional stutter here and there is understandable but damn this thing slows way down. My guess is a dirty non optimized Sharp rom. Really, this thing should fly!

Something I noticed when comparing the Moto G with the Crystal on CPU-Z is Motorola has the CPU governor set to "Interactive" whereas the Crystal is set to "Ondemand"

Also you can't use ART on this phone which is a bummer because it definitely would help!
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] RealiZms:
Also I've disabled Clip Now, Clip Now Setting, and Lumen toolbar so they're not running in the background.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] MrTriTanium:
I have too noticed some lag. It is most apparent for me when I switch apps quickly and open Hangouts to send a message and Swiftkey will not recognize any taps for about 20 seconds or so, and when I enter my PIN. I see more stuttering on the Crystal while scrolling through my Play apps while installing updates than what I did with my Optimus F3 that has a dual-core. It also was odd that ART is not available since it is with KK.

It looks like there is some kind of update for the Softbank version here http://www.softbank.jp/mobile/info/personal/software/20140917-01/ , so it might be making the rounds in carrier testing in the US. In Chrome's translation of the Japanese on the website it says that the Crystal will be supported for 3 years, so that looks nice.

As useful as Clip Now is, regular screenshots might be more efficient. I saw the app Greenify on the side-bar here on XDA, checked it out, and it works well to save battery life. It essentially "hibernates" apps and stops them from running in the background.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] ycats:
After reading the specs on this device awhile back, what you're describing isn't really a surprise.......which is probably why I won't purchase unless the Japanese version comes to the US.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] weltwon:
Crystal Lag? Not on mine!

Guys, I've lost count on how many smartphones & tablets I've had in past 8 years. Prior to getting the 306SH I was carrying a Note 3 from Tmobile which was rooted with a tweaked ROM and that sucker was F A S T! For most tasks I find my Sharp to be just as fast and in some cases FASTER than my former Note 3!

Yes, I uninstalled and disabled some apps I never use, like Drive, Google Play Books and Google Play Newsstand.

Bottom Line: Numbers don't always tell the truth when it comes to real life.

My Sharp Aquos Crystal flies. Sorry if yours doesn't.

Glenn ;)
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] kozmo2k4:
I think this is really nice phone. Not just the looks, but it performs quite well too.

I have not experienced any lag, so far, installed about 30 apps, took pictures, played music...

The music sounds pretty good coming out of the speakers too! Oh, I did install Apollo Music Player, as I did not see "stock" player there, only g-Music... As with all Androids, I think Greenify is a must-have app; even though we do not have root yet, it kills (user) apps that try to constantly run in background (FB, Skype, etc..).

After the first full charge yesterday when I bought it, right now is down to about 28%, so that's 1 day and 2 hours on battery. Not bad.

The wife loves it, mainly because of the unique design, but like the performance too; it's an upgrade for her aging Epic 4G Touch...

So far so good!
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] RealiZms:
No Glenn, your Crystal doesn't fly. It's

just faster than your Note 3, which isn't slightly surprising. Touchwiz ruins Android on many levels. Aside from that the fact remains it should run a near stock version of Android faster and smother than it does. Coming from a Nexus 4 I know what fast is.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] c2med:
I have both the Crystal and a Moto G. They perform exactly the same to me - both are pretty responsive and although I can get both to lag a little bit if I really try, it is pretty good considering the hardware.. I wonder if you might have some apps that are slowing things down for you?
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] carnivalrejectq:
I've had the Sprint prepaid and Boost versions of this phone. Texting becomes annoying with any keyboard I am using because touch and response doesn't always match up for some reason. Just can't get it right on this phone. This lag you speak of I definitely experienced. It happens most often when the battery is low under 15%. Try it out for yourself. You'll notice that's when the lag comes out to play. I mean its still operatable so can't complain too much but it's definitely noticeable. Must be a hidden power save feature. With that being said I've noticed the lag other times when too many apps are open in recents or the phone's been being used to long. Memory problem? Idk.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] k28king1:
I have absolutely no lag on this phone what so ever. Sorry to those that are experiencing that, return it for a warranty replacement. I use this phone a lot, and it never slows down. I have been playing asphalt 8 with the graphics settings cranked up and no lag. You guys just got bad models, it happens with every manufacturer. My last phone was the lg optimus f7, I had to return it 4 times before I got one that was good.

Is this available? The Atom forum is kinda dead. Please help..do you guys plan to release this?
[General Topics] linkinrom:
erm....

WM6 out yet? I thought its only a evaluated version that some can gets? And oly available next 2-3 months?

ROM release for Atom only available through O2 website. And through my experience, they never offer any window updates for any previous Phones. So not likely they will this time.

However, if you wanna update it, i think you can try but its gonna be very slow (i guess as i did with o2 IIi using WM5.0) as each phone has different specs so it has to be engineered to run smoothly.

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Garridon:
My m8 is s-offed and rooted. It's suffering from the scratched camera issue and I'm thinking of sending it in. Has anyone successfully put their phone to stock and sent it in with no problem?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] hstaab:
Absolutely. Just take your time to understand the process to get back to stock, ask questions if necessary, and go for it. I had to do so after suffering the LTE bug on my device the second month of ownership. Could do nothing on LTE, and 3G only was spotty. Went back to full stock and had no issues in sensing it back. HTC's customer support and turnaround were very impressive IMO.

Sent from my Viperized M8.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Garridon:
So HTC is the company I'm contacting?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Magnum_Enforcer:
Yes.

One question. Have you tried any of the methods posted online to try & clean the lens yourself?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] AarSyl:
I second this. If you send it in, there's a strong possibility that HTC will replace the film with a clean film.

In other words, you'll only be postponing the inevitable truth that you have to do it yourself. I did using hand sanitizer and a cloth to clean my glasses, and I did it in my car. It's not a big deal at all.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Magnum_Enforcer:
Had not heard of the hand sanitizer method. I used toothpaste & Q-tips.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] AarSyl:
Hand sanitizer = alcohol. :lightbulb:
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] chazglenn3:
I used 99% isopropyl alcohol.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Kitteh298:
There's pretty much only one part you can change, you need the digitizer assembly, can be had for about $140 on ebay
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Andowsdan:
Yep. It seems as if your LCD is messing up. You would need the whole LCD/glass part. However, always make sure that you test the part before installing it, because if the part is defective, you want to know that before putting it in. If you're unsure of how to install it, either make sure you do a fair amount of research, or take it to a repair shop to have it done professionally. Yes, a shop will be more expensive, however, there will be less risk involved.

Same problem with At&t note 4. Starts stuttering like crazy in candy crush and farm heroes saga. It is weird that games like nfs most wanted and nova 4 don't have lags. Also just locking and unlocking phone fixes it. It's probably some software bug. I wanted to replace my phone but there are none in stock. I'm also suspecting the problem being with KING developed games and note 4.
