LOL

sorry for laughing, but I just think it's funny that someone'd just continue on with a 2/2.5G SIM card with a 3.5G device when there was a 3/3.5G service available! hehe
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] oholic:
Its funny alright...

But the joke is on us!

In Israel , with an Operator named Cellcom, when you upgrade to 3G you HAVE to buy a WAP data package which is pretty useless.

Secondly , the network is relativly new , so reception is very bad.

I got the 3G USIM but still use 2G/GPRS.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Koksie:
Some operators in the Netherlands, e.g. T-Mobile, do not hand out USIMs at all, although they offer UMTS and HSDPA. We just keep using our usual 2G sims with the 3G network and it works like a charm. It is really an operator choice and not necessary at all to hand out USIMs.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] bendt:
I experience similar problems. Could happen several times a day, or could a week or two without problems. Have tried to re-flash ROMs, and upgrade ROM's. Tried with "virgin" setup with no 3rd party sw - all with the same result.

The phone is only a couple of months old, and so is the SIM card.

How can I find out if I have a usim card, or 3G/2G card?

I have also experienced a lot of problems dialing/receving calls lately. When dialing it will not actually get through, and after a while (perhaps 10-20 seconds) it will time out and disconnect. The problem is that it will disconnect from the network completely, and take a very long time to re-connect. Longer than normal - perhaps several minutes.

Could this be related?

PS. I'm with T-Mobile in the Netherlands, running on a HTC TyTN (Hermes200)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] tosstasny:
I have also the same probs with my device (MDAII TMobile with a USIM from 3 Austria), so the error isnt due to a 2g SIM...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] RemE:
I get random lockups, lites blinking, display ON, backlite OFF, all buttons including power locked, only soft reset restores. I have a new 3G sim.

I seem to see this more when the 8525 is on a charger, after receiving a call or message. I'll walk up and find it like this. On battery this seldom happens.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kade Farbo:
I'm really new to rooting and I bricked my old S5 by my own mistake when trying to root it. I got a new one and I just need some assistance in how to find the information I need to get this phone rooted. I've had a mesmerize and an s4 on cyanogen but for some reason I can't find much on my model. Am I looking in the wrong spot?

I'm sorry if I'm not supposed to post asking for something I could just search for but I'm unsure of bad roots that may brick it again. Is there an official thread for rooting these things or do I just have to look for community roots? Any help would be greatly appreciated

And if there is any cyanogenmod that supports my model that would be helpful. Sorry for the beginner question but I really want to be rooted again

Hello people! First, sorry for my english. I'm having a little problem. The phone is off in less than 1 minute. I think that the operating system got a virus. The same is with the screen locked and I can not remember the password. I've tried resetting the recovery mode but not funciounou. I tried to install the original rom, did not work.

[Nexus 6  General] tsy87:
as much of a supporter I am of android... iphones tend to have amazing cameras. ill watch the video later when i get home but its hard to judge IQ from a video.
[Nexus 6  General] jt3:
It's really hard to say without knowing how the camera was set up on each phone. (They were at different resolutions, so what else is different?) However, assuming everything but the resolution is the same (a big assumption), and judging from the side-by-side video, it seemed to me that the iPhone tended to oversaturate a bit. This worked well in lower light (or backlit) conditions, but once in a well lit condition, it looked washed out. Also, the white balance looked way off on the iPhone.

It just generally looked "off" enough that I'm highly suspecting that the camera settings were different. For example, the grain and flower pictures looked like a fill flash was used on the N6, but not with the iPhone.
[Nexus 6  General] rkennison:
It's you..... the new iphone 6 is the highest rated ever on a camera phone by dxomark. The sensor on the Nexus is still the crappy old 1/3" sensor. The iphone 6 has a 1/2.66 sensor. You can still get a good image on the nexus, but it's not the same. MP = nothing really ( since most camera phones are over 10mp anyway ). Sensor size and f stop mean everything... ( along with good software to run it all ).

Without some sort of reference, those images mean nothing really in the video. For instance the nexus images looked washed out. However, without being there to see the true colors, Its impossible to tell.

I hate iphones, but you have to give apple this one.
[Nexus 6  General] Iakona:
The iPhone 6 still uses a 1/3 sensor if I'm not mistaken.
[Nexus 6  General] kidhudi:
what did dxomark say about the nexus 6? i cant find anything about it.

i am just saying when the video first came up i thought to myself "that must be the iphone on the left" because to me the video on the left looked far superior.then the labels came up and the nexus was on the left. i was shocked.i know we all have personal preferences, i thought and still think, the nexus outperformed the apple product in these examples.

i am just happy that google took the camera seriously this time around.

maybe apple has a better camera ...i dont know ,but in this video i would have picked the nexus to be superior.

thanks
[Nexus 6  General] dtroup64:
This is that weird video again. There's something suspicious about it. First off, Nexus 6 doesn't have 60 fps... This isn't right...
[Nexus 6  General] kidhudi:

[Nexus 6  General] rkennison:
Naw, It's 1/2.66. The new Z3 is 1/2.33

[Nexus 6  General] dtroup64:
uhm... iphone camera is one of the best, if not THE best around. You don't have to be a iPhone fanboy to know that. I've only had droids, and will continue to only have droids... but I'm not an idiot... lol
[Nexus 6  General] rydako:
You have to be some major sheep if you can't accept that Iphones do have their ups. Same as rkennison, I dislike Iphones and I'm a fan of android, but I don't conform to all this fanboy BS. Just because you're a fan of one, doesn't mean you have to pretend the other is absolute sh*t. Android is especially lacking on the camera software side.

The lumia 1020 kills all iphones but that doesn't mean i want to use that antiquated operating system. ...just like ios no thanks ....tell me iphone can capture in raw format. ...yes it can and as those raw nudes were hacked and posted online lol....no thanks
[Nexus 6  General] mp5cartman:
Your attitude is an example of why sometimes I hate the android community. You already assumed he's a fanboy and all that because he sided with an iPhone. He is stating facts, I have used the iPhones 1st gen to the 4s and after that android till today and its clear that one feature that iPhones are very strong at is the camera. Anyways, I am just glad the Nexus 6 has a comparable camera to higher tier phones, because I've used the GN, N4 and N5 and the camera on those were just crap. Can't wait to get my hands on the N6 and will be comparing it to my bros iPhone 6 Plus for a raw comparison.
[Nexus 6  General] nexus6R3plicant:
I also didnt say it was bs or sh1t or anything else but i have seen note 4 cam beat iphone and from my point of view even g3 beats it in most situations ... iphones have their place in the market for kids that want to buy and be just like their friends and go along with everyone else and peoples parents who cant really understand how to work a android ....its just simple and its not for everyone .... that is the beauty of it ..i dont have to buy it because i dont want to ...just like all these people complaining about size and price of nexus 6 ... you don't have to buy it . I have had note 2 , 3, and 4 g2 and g3 wife has a iPhone 6 for work... i look at devices and check off boxes the ones that i can check off most i will get ....i won't even look at phones under 5.5 so that always narrows it down. Then i look at specs i have had many smart phones going back to treo 600 650 750 palm pre evo galaxy s2 s3 ...its wonderful to have your pick and not have to worry what others think .....
[Nexus 6  General] eskomo:
Actually I believe Note 4 was rated higher than iphone 6+. The colors were washed out on the 6+ in that video not the other way around. The problem here is that some people don't actually know much about photography and yet they still come on here and make random statements. MP means nothing anymore, but when you're down as low as 8mp in a phone it actually does. Usually poeple blow up photos more often taken with phones and this poses more issues when it is a low resolution. Face book, instagram and many other social media sites have created a place for people to post pictures and the need for editing. This blowing up of a photo to post as your profile picture or to crop someone else out leads to pixelated photos from iphones everywhere.
[Nexus 6  General] floepie:
Weird. I found that the videos from the iphone were vastly superior. Just look at the level of detail in the sky, and the slightly warmer colors are more true-to-life. The photos on the other hand seem much more a mixed bag. It almost seems as if he switched some of them mistakenly, as I just didn't expect that. And, as has been pointed out, while the sensor and f-stop give you better a starting point on the iphone for sure, it could very well be the case (if the photos are correct in the video) that the post-processing algorithms in Nexus 6 have produced a more pleasing picture.

That's what I'm after at least. I don't use the phone's pics for editing. I just want the final product to be as real to life as possible. I'm still not convinced with only these samples however.

EDIT> I think he did switch some of the photos. The iphone's photos have a wider view with more pleasing warmer colors. However, with at least 2 samples the Nexus was shown as having the wider, warmer photo. I don't trust this....
[Nexus 6  General] rkennison:
Not worth my time.. nevermind.
[Nexus 6  General] floepie:
What? I think you're older than you sound. Isheep. Aren't we a little beyond that point. Just keep it relevant man.
[Nexus 6  General] enaybee:
Without going into validity of this video what I can see is that camera on the right side appear to capture better light. Image appear to be brighter in dark shadowed areas. I would take the one on the right side of the video whichever phone it belongs too.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glossywhite:
Hello my lovely people :)

I have just bought the 2nd gen Moto G (XT1068) and it is now just over 2 days old. My question to you all is this - what is going on with my battery usage, please?

Landscape:

As you can see, my usage graph looks like a mountain range. I drained the battery almost flat from out of the box, then charged it, then ran it down and charged it again. Today, I ran it down to the 4% warning then charged it fully, and it's still plugged into the charger now.

If anyone is willing and able to provide insight into this, I would be most grateful, thank you all.

God bless you :) Matt.

Hey all,

Just picked up my first Xperia device, T-Mo's Z3 (DD6616). Mostly impressed with the quality and UI options.

I am at odds trying to understand Sony's screen "Adapt to lighting conditions" option under Settings/Display/Brightness Slider... When this option is checked, it hardly makes any change based on ambient lighting. I still find myself making slider adjustments routinely to match ambient lighting conditions.

My question is, is there any solution to this? Maybe a 3rd party app that better manages screen brightness? Any help, thoughts, or insight as to how to improve this limitation would be greatly appreciated!

Technically any phone does. If this is a big deal for you, you can always download a 3rd party messaging app. There are tons out there that may add more functionality than a stock messaging app does.

Activesync

When you first connected the device, there was an option what to synch, and by default email is one of the things. You can fix it by synching, then choosing Tools/Options from the PC menu and unchecking Email. (It doesn't synch notes by default, which you can also fix here.)

Hi

I just got a XT1094, with the chilean carrier Movistar everything was great until I installed a leaked new version of google seach, the phone stop working and when I turn it of and turn it on again gets on a boot loop hole.

I can access the fastboot mode but when I use recovery appears the android robot wih the warning sign for a few second and then it goes to the boot loop again, factory reset dosn´t work neither.

The phone isn´t rooted or have the bootloader unlock.

Please I am starting to get kind of desesperate.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faruko:
You have the XT1094 ? Odd, i bought it on release on same carrier and it is the XT1097

If its not rooted or unlocked, just go to Movistar and change it, ill do that since if you mess up something you might lose warranty.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CTuna:
Actually I assume that was that version but I cant confirm, I cant return it to movistar one of the first thing that I did was let it escape of my hands so it now have a few scratch that will avoid the warranty I am sure.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faruko:
I dont think that a few scratches will void warranty, after all the problem is "software", just go and say that it doesnt turn on and it goes to bootloop

Especially when it is THIS new, and its not the hardware that it fails. I assume that since its unrelated it should not void it
