[Galaxy Note 4 General] pafc66:
Recent apps menu has absolutely no lag no. Its instant. That's the only difference I've noticed so far. The phone is lightning. So glad i didnt buy the local australian snapdragon version. Theres litterally like a 2 to 3 second delay in opening some menu's and apps.

Where did you hear that we will get 5.0 in November?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Joey121215:
Nexus 9 is releasing on the 3rd bro and 6 is coming out in November. Samsung has also already been working on getting lollipop working with all the preview builds that Google released. The point of that was so developers could get phones updated faster. I wouldn't be surprised if we had an update before the end of November, definitely before new year

No changelog?

So there's no changelog? No one knows what this update covers?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] EP2008:
Nope, but I can say that it hasn't fixed my wifi issues (internet drops, even though it says connected) or battery issues.... the lag with multitasking is still there.

I did notice in Titanium that a few system apps were updated (scrapbook, I believe was one of them), but no obvious differences.

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oziboy:
Hi all,

So today the mobile data of my dad's s3 mini started to act weird.

He can access facebook, and some other apps while in data ( the apps are installed through play store... )but the youtube app, or accessing youtube, facebook, google or any other site on the internet browser is impossible.

He can use about 1GB of data and it resets every month, but he only used 600MB over the last 3 months so that can't be the problem.

I tried googling it but haven't seen anything that helped me.

Is there any fix for this, if yes, then please tell me i don't have to put it in default settings :)

Thanks in advance

-ozi

EDIT: Okay so if you happen to have this problem follow these steps:

Go to your menu and press settings.

Then go to mobile networks, located under the connectivity tab

Now there are some options, one of them is called "access point names", click that

Then you got 1 or more circles which you can check, see which one has a green dot in it, for me it was the first, keep that one in mind

Now hit the menu button and choose "reset to default settings", this will set everything back to default, obviously :p.

Now choose the circle again which you kept in mind, enable data and ur done!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DR I:
Hi everyone,

Today, I'm asking you about something a little bit more specific that just what kind of hardware should I use to develop on Android.

Indeed, I'm currently working on a multi-part project based on Android, mixing software and hardware parts.

I've got my Nexus 5 which is quite good as a development platform but it's my personal phone and, well, it would be quite ****ty if I bricked it.

So, now I need a development board with the following hardware:

Procs: ARM Quad procs 64Bits or Intel Dual/Quad 64Bits

RAM: 2GB Ram minimum

Storage: 16Gb / 32 Gb

System-Storage: eMMC Flash NAND 4Gb

Connectivity: BTLE 4.0 - Wifi b/n/ac - LTE/LTE-A

Even if the product do not have all the requirements, the Intel EDISON platform seems gorgeous to me as it has the perfect size/form factor for my project.

Unfortunately it do not support Android Out of the box, and I'll have to provide extra migration effort if I use this board for my project.

So, my question is, how do you proceed when you've got a multi-part project?

Why kind of dev board do you use? Do you develop on a relatively close to the finished product platform or do you use a more versatile devboard and then create prototypes etc on another project phase?
[Android Apps and Games] Netforza:
Shape Puzzles Pro is a unique and very challenging puzzle game in spite of its similarity to jigsaw puzzles.

* You do not see the puzzle image until you finish solving the puzzle.

* All the puzzle pieces have unique freeform shapes and colors.

* You can connect the puzzle pieces only to the central white piece.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.netforza.shapePuzzlePro

How to play:

Make all the pieces on the board white to discover the hidden image.

Drag a color puzzle piece to fit the shape of the central white piece. If you moved it correctly it will snap to its place and become white.

Every game level has a maximum number of points you can earn. Each second you lose a point.

Each solved puzzle will unlock the next one.

Shape Puzzles Pro is designed as a casual puzzle game for grown ups but the content is child friendly.

While the first puzzles are very easy, to introduce the game concept, more advanced levels in the game might be too difficult and frustrating for kids.

Get the game on:

I have no devices with Android4.4+

I would really appreciate if anyone could leave some feedback on how the game works on Android 4.4 or Android 5.0.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Colbyaw:
Excited to be playing around with my new Z3, but two issues have popped up, and I'd love to hear other peoples' experiences to know whether this is just a phone issue, or whether I might have a bad wifi chip.

1) My Z3's wifi connection is literally half as slow as my iPad mini. I do Speedtest after Speedtest with the two of them, sitting right next to one-another, and the Z3 is literally half the speed - whether I test at home, in the office, etc. I also notice that the Z3's connection seems to a) waver in and out much more (much less consistent speed than the iPad mini), and b) it dramatically slows down over time, even just the short duration of a Speedtest.

2) Fired up Remote Play for the first time last night. Or at least, tried to... after several tries, I can get it going - with, of course, the 'warning' signal up top - but the moment I sync up the DS4 controller so that I can actually play, *wham* the signal degrades rapidly until I lost the PS4 connection.

I'm starting to think I may just have a bad wifi chip... would love to hear others' experiences with their Z3...
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bighuta:

[General Questions and Answers] sakis14:
Hello all!

First of all, I am new here so I don't know if I posted on the right section. If no, sorry for this.

Regarding my problem:

I have been using Mygica ATV1200 android TV box (4.1.1) for almost a year without a single problem but the last few weeks I started getting random reboots. The last few days the problem became quite frustrating. The device reboots almost every minute.

I contacted mygica support and they sent me update instructions to the latest spi and firmware (4.2.2). But the problem is still there (after factory reset/wipe cache and upgrading).

I' ve searched and read quite a few posts and threads. People saying about bad sd cards, problematic apps etc. I tried all of the proposed solutions. And after upgrading I haven't installed any app. Just the (pre-installed) stock ones.

And here's something that I noticed: If I leave the device to "rest", unplugged from the power for 2-3 hours, it works with no reboots for 1-2 hours. Then it starts the random reboot cycle.

I suspect there might be a problem either with the power adapter, probably became faulty and can't provide sufficient and constant power or the internal chip can't handle anymore the increasing heat while using the device.

Any suggestions guys?

P.S. Power adapter specs:

INPUT 300mA

OUTPUT 12V/1000mA

If I buy a new power adapter, on which of these must I be careful? Amperes or Volts?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] menymu:
Well, i replaced my self 6 months ago the screen and last time the screen started to flickering. i opened the phone and though maybe the connector need to be resoldered or something missed up so i took my hot air blower and used it on the motherboard after disconnecting everything.

Than i realized that when i turn on the phone i have circle with line on it like i have no sim and i notice that my imei and baseband bluetooth and such are unknown.

I triend for 2 days somemany guides, odin flashes and such and iam kind of give up. for more, i just got my warranty void +1 :rolleyes:

I think maybe i have HW faulty because from then the whole thing started.

Anyone have any idea what it can be?

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ABOsborn20:
One of my last hang ups on getting the Nexus 6 is how it will handle notifications. I know it will have Ambient Display, but from what I have been able to read, its not going to pulse like the Active Display of the normal Moto phones. Has anyone seen how the Nexus 6 will handle notifications yet?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benetton:
This is exactly what I'm trying to find out, i keep checking all the unboxing and first hands on video and reviews

and they just keep talking about the size, specs and camera, i might have to pass on this nexus if it doesn't pulse in some form, i just can always keep picking up my phone check for a message.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Baldilocks:
Yep. If it doesn't pulse or blink or something, it will be a poor choice. Knowing you have a notification from across the room or in a dark room, is one of the things I like about 95% of Android phones.

The last phone I had without an LED light was the GS2, and I had to use other means.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ABOsborn20:
It seems like such a simple request for anyone with the phone to check as well. Every unboxing and first impressions video I have watched (far too many) have all said that "it has moto x like notifications and that's a good thing" but every time they show the settings it doesn't indicate that it pulses or breathes. I was hoping that DL would have answered this question when they got their test units, but even they haven't yet.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boynamedstacy:
I'm pretty sure Google knows it's silly to send a visible notification only once. I'm confident they've incorporated some form of pulse or renotification of some kind. Fingers crossed
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr Faustus:
In any case if it is or not just remember this. ITS A SOFTWARE FEATURE.

I mean come on guys, we are XDA. If its not perfect I am sure one or some of us here will be able to modify the feature to allow whatever we want. The feature is baked into 5.0 android now and is Open, all we have to do is work on a expanded settings system to customize it if it already does not have one. Hell if Xposed gets properly ported to ART we can surely see a module for it!

Stop acting like its the end of the world if it does/doesn't have the exact feature of software design as the Moto X. Its a software feature and if demand needs it I am sure we will find a way to make it happen. Have faith in XDA and the Developers.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ABOsborn20:
Its definitely not the end of the world. I'm not being dramatic and condemning the phone if it doesn't have it. Just looking for an answer to what I hope Google realizes is a basic need. I've been rooting and roming since the OG Droid days here so I know what XDA can do, I just don't believe this is a feature that I should need to rely on the Devs here to create.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nickcu13:
First of all, it's something you can turn off. So if it doesn't work the way you want it to you don't have to use it.

Google is also pushing Android Wear which makes anything like Moto Display (ie Active Display) pointless cause you can see it on your wrist faster anyway.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 20degrees:
Not everybody can afford a $250 "wear" on top of their phone purchase though.

G3
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ABOsborn20:
Or want to. I really have no desire to spend $250 on a watch that I have to replace every couple years because it becomes obsolete or the battery is well beyond is usefully life.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nickcu13:
The battery on the G watch is really great actually.

And if you don't want Android wear, don't buy it. But that's where Google is going so some features that used to be present on phones that aren't as necessary now will potentially be removed.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ECrispy:
Ambient display on N6 works similar to Moto X. It will pulse when the notification arrives. After that it will pulse every few minutes, in an adaptive time period - the longer you don't pick it up, the period between pulses will increase.

And of course custom rom's will be able to tweak this, I hope.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ABOsborn20:
This sounds perfect. Do you have a source for this or speculation?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ECrispy:

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ECrispy:
Seems very unreliable, he had to try multiple times. Also why is pick up to activate so unreliable?

I really wish they'd copied the Moto version and added the sensors.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glitchhawk:
this seems like it will just nuke the battery in comparison to an LED.... I may end up just leaving this off. :(

won't this turn on constantly in a pocket as well?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cupfulloflol:
It likely will use sensors to detect things like that. Proximity sensor would be my first guess, but there are others they could use to get a good idea of when and where it should or should not wake up. Tap to wake also has similar restrictions in most implementations.

I am guessing here, as I have no clue what Google has done. Moto has done Active display before, and Google has some intelligent people there. They had to realize it going off in your pocket would be a bad thing.

E2A, about your battery concerns, these are my main concern about this as well. In the description on the play store, there is a 24% drop in standby time battery life 330 hours with Ambient Display off > 250 hours with Ambient Display on. Those numbers aren't correct, and with actual usage, the percentage that the Ambient display feature will use should be much lower than 24%, but it definitely is going to eat up more than a notification LED would.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lude219:
Just saw the vid on the ambient display too, and I'm quite sadden by the lack of notification light. Every single one of my phones have had notification light since 2008, I dunno how I'm going to cope with this...:(

I have 4 different colored notifications and I can tell from halfway across the room of what those are, now I have too pick up the phone to check?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glitchhawk:
thanks for the answers! cool to know about the (most likely) pocket sensor. and yeah.. as always I suppose we just have to play around with it once we get it and see how much faster the phone dies on a given day.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frigidazzi:
I'm with you, but I still want the phone. Might have to use an app like light flow and put phone face down and have it flash the camera led lol.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ABOsborn20:
My concern with this is battery life. Whenever you interact with the device, it turns on the full lock screen? Doesn't this defeat the purpose of an active display? The whole point is to alert you to a notification with the most information possible but not wake the entire device. If an email or a notification comes in that I don't want to deal with, I have to wake the device to dismiss it. This would explain the 24% drop in expected battery life.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frigidazzi:
By the way. I emailed the dev for lightflow, which I have been using for years asking

"Hello. I am wondering if there are any plans to incorporate notifications for devices that don't have LEDs? Like the Nexus 6. I am going to go crazy without lightflow and no LED light. Something simple like flashing colors on the screen in place of led? If not I would like to suggest that as a feature :).

Thanks for your time."

His response was "Hi

It's something I'm planning to work on as soon as the lollipop release of lightflow is out (should be in the next few days) as I'm keen to get a nexus 6 but will also miss the led!

Cheers, Andrew"

So there is this to be hopefully for. Not sure if it will be different than the other apps that act like active display, but we shall see.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JMillion:
yea no LED. Takes a little getting used to. When there is a message the display will slowly come on and then after while fade out. Its in b&w. When you decide to actually use it, it will show in color.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l_stevens:
More reasons why I'm torn between a Nexus 6 and a 2014 Moto X.....
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cb474:
That doesn't seem like a very good solution, to me. Say you're sitting around doing something and don't notice you have a notification when it first comes in. Thirty minutes later you look up, but at this point the rate of pulsing has slowed down to every few minutes, so the odds that in the second you glance up it happens to pulse are pretty low. Are you supposed to stare at the phone for a minute or more to see if it's going to pulse? In that case, you may as well just get up and pick the phone up. If not, if you just glance up and then away, you could go a long time missing the pulses and not realizing there's a missed call or something.

I find myself in this sort of situation all the time with my Nexus 4. And when I look up, from across the room, after being caught up in something for a while, I realize I missed something, because the LED is flashing. It's super useful.

To me, if the pulsing slows down to only every few minutes, even only every ten seconds, chances are you're just going to miss it when you happen to glance up. So that solution essentially means you're going to have to constantly actively pick up the phone to check if there's a notificaiton.

Instead of all of this fancy active display stuff, why don't they just have a couple pixels pulse, like an LED? AMOLED displays can do that. It would be much more useful.

*

Don't get me wrong. I like the active display idea. But to me it's a solution to a different problem, not a substitute for the LED. The active display is useful, for when you do something like take your phone out of your pocket. To have it immediately light up on it's own and show you a list of notifications would be convenient. Or, if there was an LED to let you know there are notifications, then it would be handy to just pick up the phone and have it light up the list of notifications on its own.

But it really doesn't seem like it's going to do what an LED does, which is pulse frequently enough (every couple seconds), so if you glance up from across the room it will catch your eye.
