Universal

Hi Cyber-mate

To let you know; I do love my Universal and I'm using it 24 hours a day!

So I think I'm the first who answers your question :D

'Yeah... Lets start a poll'.

Cheers, Leo

Hi Cyber-mate

Have to say, I have persevered with the Universal, and that since the genius rom builders on here have cooked up some of their magic I am at last a happy Uni owner. I bought mine in Sep/Oct of 2005 and I can honestly say now I find mine usefull. I'm not a heavy user, but it is my main squeez (so to speak).

Regards

Mavrik

The reason there are so many devices, is because the market can support them as different people like different things.

There is no such thing as the best device, or the perfect device, it's what you think suits your needs the closest.

Currently, the Universal is the highest specification device, but soon the Athena will be out, but this is much larger, and not designed as a mobile pda phone, and also the Omni, which is the replacement for the Universal.

Really though, if you like your Universal, then great, if you don't, then listening to other people's views on what is good or bad will only confuse you.

We like the Universal, but there are many more that hate it.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] HyperMalac:
I love my unversal too, and I think I keep it until I can get an Apple iPhone.

Or maybe I never change it to another device, because it has all thing in one, except GPS. But I can live without it, still we have BT GPS on the market.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] CWKJ:
Confused!!!...

Not sure what you want!!!...

Benchmark PDA? Yes I like my Universal!!!...

Benchmark Forum? Yes this is a good forum!!!... Of course, somethings are not allowed here but can be found somewhere!!!... :D

Benchmark self cooked ROM? This is definitely the best before WM6 starts to be banned!!!... If this banned forever, well one good thing less!!!... :(
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] CWKJ:
Why iPhone?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Cyber-mate:
You see CWKJ, there are 100s of opinions from 100s of poeple. However, being a person among a large comunity that consider Universal as a gr8 device that has got the all-in-one! I mean, just check any of those posts with a ROM related topic, you'd see more than 100k entries and with no doubt this indicate that it is widely used and YET proven to be a

top-of-the-list device.

I am sure many more would agree with me and to tell you the truth, Apple IPhone is a pansy one.

We are talking FUNCTIONALITY here and not looks and colors! A device that can connect wirelessly, bluetooth, camera, keyboard and many others proves to be a true Pocket PC.

And hey, one more thing, when we talk about a Pocket PC, we aint talking mobile phone, I mean apple to apple ;)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] tripledes:
Hi,

about the Universal, I have to say it's a wonderful device which can be very useful and helpful. Thanks to its VGA display you can browse Internet really well not like those other devices with smaller resolutions.

The "laptop alike" makes it again very useful to write anything, even long texts.

I think about it more like a little laptop replacement (...ok the OS is not really a good OS replacement but I guess this would change with Linux...). It's another way of PPC, since I got my Hermes (about two weeks ago) I see how it's different, I use the Hermes with just one finger (almost everything) while I don't use the keyboard too much....on the other hand with my Uni I almost did everything with the keyboard.

So now with these two devices I have to say I use the Hermes as an "stable" PPC and the universal to try every new ROM is created, I'm trying to learn how to cook them, etc so now I think I'm enjoying the Uni even more! :D

I switched to Google Now Launcher and for the life of me I can't find the Weather + Pedometer widget to add to my homescreen. Is it baked into a TW only feature?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Nefariouss:
Touchwiz widgets will not work in another launcher.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] WizeGuyDezignz:
Which is why I always scratch my head when people buy a Samsung device and run a third party launcher. The Touchwiz widgets are awesome imo.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] dh2225:
All the touchwiz widgets work with apex launcher. To add them I have to make 5x5 columns and rows, or it will say no more room on homescreen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] boufa:
Seriously doubt all of them work... can you add a action memo to your home screen as a widget? Does it give you the thumbtack to pin them?

I have several samsung widgets working on Nova, specifically S-Note, but the s-planner widget doesn't even show up in the list of widgets that can be placed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] joshklee:
I also use Apex and can use most of the Samsung widgets including pedometer and S-Memo widgets.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] dmichael:
They are talking about using kexec which as I understand it will allow use a kernel module (called kexec) to bootstrap to another kernel, allowing the bootloader to stay locked but use other complete non-samsung based roms.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] DeadlySin9:
This is true. If you haven't been keeping up with this thread, it's the location of the last light for unlocking/exploiting our bootloader. Try to keep discussion and even praise in there to a minimum to allow maximum visibility between developer posts and progress.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Apoplectic1:
^In other words stay out of their way and let the devs work their magic.

God I hope they find something. I can't remember the last time I flashed a kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] cybershawngates:
Cool! Sure hope they find a way

Youd think, with Samsung's profits down , hopefully sammy will consider opening tha bootloader and allowing enthusiasts to buy their phones, even if they give us a way to do it by tripping Knox after all the phone so old who cares about Knox
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] NighthawkXL:
I wouldn't hold my breath, it's not Samsung who is forcing us to have a locked bootloader. It's the carriers, specifically AT&T and Verizon in this case who asked Samsung to lock the device as part of the contract to sell them on their network. This is the reason why the T-Mobile S4, Canadian I337m, and of course the international S4 don't have a locked bootloader..

Hi all,

I'm new the the OPO having just left the Nexus line after a long time.

I'd love to use the capacitive buttons but really hate how they're opposite to the Android guidelines. Is it possible to remap them so they're the same as the Android on screen ones?

Ah but it requires root :/
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lemonspeakers:
Root, and unlock bootloader and Install the latest Oct. 21st verion of SLIMKat and be over it.

You have so much customizations under a super clean and LIGHT ROM. In fact, most of what Android Lolipop is coming out with has ALREADY been out on custom roms ages ago.

Think of it as Google finally taking ideas from the development community.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acegolfer:

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oliper:
Hello.

Well, so iv tried several things to improve my battery life on our sg4mini. My phone is rooted with custom kernel installed, running official rom. U can see my phone informations in screenshot attached. Im using greenify - the extended version with experimental functions. I hava also removed most of stock - non useful applications via uninstaller app (eg. samsung apps and other). Almost all my current apps r greenified, i left only Viber active cos im communicating through that app. I attached screens with my battery life from a normal-usage-day like: some internet browsing, 9gag and other social network apps. So the battery lasted 15 hours, with like 4h with screen on, so its not that bad i guess(i mean the screen time). Anyways, i got my gps, nfc, smart stay, s beam and other options turned off all the time. i only got data transfer turned on all day long, which means im mostly connected to LTE network. And that, i guess is the reason of such low battery capacity. I got the Vikinger kernel installed cos as i saw several posts about some error in stock samsung kernel i decided to flash some, which may help. SS from Wakelock detector attached aswell. I also installed CrossBreeder cos i found some good opinion about this and improovements it gives.But well, i guess iv done all i could to improve battery life. screen brightness is automatic at -5 status+ energy saving mode is turned on all the time. So i guess the only thing that drains battery that much is this LTE usage. the point is: i dont wanna turn the data transfer off in a daytime cos i constantly use viber to communicate. I was trying to find some app that switches LTE to gsm network but i havent found any proper. I guess that could be the solution because i could still respond to Viber messages with data transfer on, and the phone wouldnt eat so much battery on connecting to networks like LTE. Do you think that could help? if yes, is there any good application - widged preferable- so i can easly and fast switch LTE to GSM when i need to browse internet fast etc? Or maybe is there any better kernel which repairs battery problem.

As i said i dont wanna disable data transfer cos i need it, well, what for did i get such good phone if i cant use it in simple way w/o worrying about the battery?

Cheers
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oliper:
So as far i have checked several connection switching applications but couldnt find one that actually switches lte to gsm by pressing one button. All i had found were just shortcuts to the network options so to change my connection i had to do several actions. What im looking for is an app with trigger like button which will automatically switch between gsm and lte - switcher like the stock data transfer button for example. For now i installed Switch Network Type 3G/2G (screens attached) which gives me an extra button in slide bar but only leads me to options.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aronuser:
i didn't read all of your text because it's just too long for me. but if you want an advice for battery improvement, try setting cpu max frequency to 1000 or lower (at 1000 it's still not really laggy at messaging etc. but battery should improve) :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oliper:
Well the post seems long cos iv really tried maaany things to improve batt life. I will give it a try with CPU settings tho. But still im seeking the real drainage problem so my question is: does network connection have such an influence on battery life? any advices,programs etc appreciated :)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alecotro:
If with LTE connection you reach at least 3 hours, everything is all right. Normally i can do at most 3 and half hours of screen with LTE.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigbailey1986:
Just wondering does anyone think/know if the nexus 5 will be able to utilize Verizon network since they will be offering the nexus 6 and the nexus 5 is compatible with their network?

It sure would be nice to have my nexus 5 moved to Verizon. And this is not an actual question just thinking out loud rather. In any case if this needs to be moved then by all means mod please move it.

Also Verizon now has the bring your own device program as long as its compatible with their network.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheAtheistOtaku:
No, no it wont
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GTI6speed:
A new phone comes out that works on said network. This obviously means the old phone that doesn't will suddenly work too right? Use your brain.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzmanj1:
Not to be a downer but this has been asked multiple upon multiple times on the Nexus 5 forum, a simple google search would have given you the answer you needed.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrObvious:
Technically it is compatible since it works on Sprint and someone stuck a Verizon SIM in and got LTE. You probably could do Page Plus or similar since they can add ESNs.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheAtheistOtaku:
no no no no. Its compatible with 1 freq band and from what ive read its only LTE and VOlte that works, which means 99% of the places you go it wont work
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
There is only data. No voice.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigbailey1986:
Well the phone is compatible based off the bands the radio utilizes. My question is since Verizon is opening up to what phones can be used on their network is there anyone who works for Verizon know of they have plans of allowing the nexus 5.

Their prepaid Boyd allows you to bring a Verizon branded phone and or compatible phone, not sure about the last part because the wording is confusing.

Also Verizon allowing the nexus 6 to work on their network could be a stepping stone as they have the same bands. Google has said they will not be discontinuing the nexus 5 which makes the phone still relevant.

Again I am just seeking anyone with knowledge as to if Verizon with the changes they have been making will allow the ESN to be added to their data base and the phone used on their network.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Right now it won't work. What they do in the future, only Verizon can answer. ?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrObvious:
OK so I stand corrected about the LTE bands. But if you can get the ESN added or use a prepaid or MVNO you should be golden. There is a thread on flashing CDMA. But my point is it isn't 100% negatively impossible.

If you have decent AT&T coverage and don't want to pay for it though, Cricket is a good option as well.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
It is currently at this time, 100% impossible to get a nexus 5 useable on Verizon.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
I guess people don't read the older Verizon and the n5 threads, and/or they just don't believe them, and do everything all over again(like its a new idea). then they realize the truth later on. anyways, you can use your n5 data only on Verizon, and use the hangouts dialer with your google number to make calls over data. but that's it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
No they don't.

[HTC Wildfire S] 801base:
Are there any Kernels or Custom Roms for the WFS that have the code for making the WFS act as a HID device (keyboard)

There are details of the code @ github.com/pelya/android-keyboard-gadget

This Phone is not now my Daily driver and I am looking to repurpose it to something useful. What I would like to do is use my WFS as a password vault that can enter passwords to my PC using this kernel update and some APKS like play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=remote.hid.keyboard.client and keypass or similar to make my WFS in to a password Vault that can automatically enter details in to the relevant fields in a web page.

I know there are issues with security of shared memory and clip board but I intend to delete most if not all other Apps. There is no SIM in the phone and the Wi-Fi and BT will be turned off unless I can get it to work as a BT keyboard as well to enter the credentials in to the browser on my Android phone or my IPad.

I have boot loader unlocked S-on, CWM recovery installed and currently running Olivers Marvellous CM10, as just upgraded CWM to V6.0.5.3 I able to try Olivers CM11 build next weekend.

Last time I coded in anger was 1992 writing Pascal on a Vax so doing these mods myself is a bit beyond me :(

Thanks for any Help.

Hello Everyone,

I apologize if Im double posting this, but I could not find an appropriate spot..

I've currently hit a concrete wall,

my Sprint M8 is rooted, S-off (through Sunshine) and unlocked (so says my HBOOT screen)

Currently on a Sense Based rom, 4.4.2

I've tried putting in my T-mobile Sim card, but no luck or any signal.. I've tried doing the HTCOdam.apk or what ever and did not seem to have very much luck.. Ive tried switching my network to GSM instead of CDMA/LTE, not luck there either. All I'm reading is that I need to complete a "sim unlock" and my phone should start grabbing signal.. reaching out for help

does any one have some advice for me? much appreciated
