[General Questions and Answers] TheCuBeMan:
Hi.

I'm very new to the Android world (just recently switched from iPhone 4S)...

I have Xiaomi's Mi4 device and a few days ago it got updated to MIUI 6.

I need to turn it back to MIUI 5 ASAP and don't know where and how exactly.

Any kind of help (for dummies) would be greatly appreciated.

10x in advance.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marleyb:
Dear Note 4 owners,

Is there anyone out there who can compare and tell more about the quality of reception on 4G/LTE bands. I owned a Note 2 long time ago, which had great quality (on 2G/3G of course) I now own a Galaxy S5 and in my area the reception is really bad. A friend of mine has a (ugh) IPhone has a great 4G/LTE signal at my place, while my S5 sucks (even exchanged my S5 with no improved results) . We are both at the same provider (vodafone). So I'm thinking in upgrading my S5 to the Note 4 if it has a quality antenna hardware. I remember there where some bad signal issues with the Note 3 in the past. Is this fixed.

Kind regards

marl
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buell47:
My Note 4 has exactly the same reception quality like the Note 3.

Doesn't matter which Band.

2G, 3G and 4G all is identical.

I use Vodafone Germany

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marleyb:
Thx for the info [MENTION=3149774]buell47[/MENTION] , and with the same you mean that all is good? full bars?

Kind regards
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozaghloul:
Using OpenSignal I can also concur that the Note 4 is identical in signal strength to the Note 3. That does not mean full bars, it means it is just as good. So if there is an area where you only got 2 bars on Note 3 you will also only get 2 bars on the Note 4.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buell47:
I can tell you only, that Note 2, 3 and 4 is the same in all different bands.

I don't have any comparison to other Models.

I read sometimes that Note devices are not so good like some Sony or HTC or IPhones.

I don't know, maybe it's true, but I want a Note, not any Phone with best reception.

That's my choice ?

Gesendet von meinem SM-N910F mit Tapatalk
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marleyb:
Thx m8, wish I could get some comparison against an S5 . I hope that because of the bigger footprint the antenna in Note 3 / 4 is more sensitive , but it's guessing for me. I only know the S5 sucks in reception. Even downtown Amsterdam (vondelpark) I never seen more then 2 bars.

regards
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozaghloul:
LTE coverage is very bad in Amsterdam, no matter what phone you are using. Supposedly it will get better in 2015 (at least thats what vodafone nl are claiming).
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marleyb:
Okay thx for the info [MENTION=3848664]ozaghloul[/MENTION] do you happen to know if KPN is much better. Still on contract [MENTION=1855492]vodaphone[/MENTION] but at least i'll know not to extend it when due
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozaghloul:
I really don't know. I think KPN has wider LTE coverage in more cities, but I think its just as bad as vodafone in Amsterdam.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] jamezr:
Well since the Turbo has a built in SIM that you can't change yourself..............how do you prepare to sell it or give to a friend? I have tried switching devices on My VZW site and it let me. But when I boot up the Turbo it still has my number it it. I tried a complete factory reset and it still has my number it. This is odd.....in the past we could just remove the SIM but now we can't.

Any thoughts?

You can remove the Sim. The volume up and down is the Sim tray.

[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xalodogan:
I have a picture of my son I will use. But my phone keeps cropping it.

Why can't I just use it as wallpaper like a iPhone does.?

Is it meant to be that I have to resize it manually before?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xalodogan:
Anyone ??
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamdawg66:
The phone wants to resize the picture to fit the dimensions of the phone screen. The cropping template can be expanded or contracted to take in as much or as little of the picture as you desire. It can also be moved in any direction. Just drag the edges of the cropping template as far out as it will go to get the maximum amount of the picture.

Im rooted and I was on viper Rom with 2.22 firmware.

in order to get s-off and install the latest release this morning I went back to stock Rom restoring a previous backup and now I have an ota to 3.29 software from my carrier (vodafone it) . Can I do this with a rooted phone or its better to get s-off first and then install new firmware from adb?

Good day to all of you. To begin with, I am really sorry for this thread as I think there are quite a few regarding my question. I am new to all these procedures, such as rooting.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ironic:
Hey guys,

i´m feeling very sad. Last week i ordered a N7 replacement screen. Today it arrived and i build it in.

But now my N7 won´t turn on anymore! :confused: :crying:

The screen stays black but if i connect N7 to a charger i can hear some noises from battery/above battery.

I tried the "hold down for 10/30sec" things already but none of it had helped.

Help me!

Hey BIG UPDATE!!

Tried to put in charger and then immediately press power+volume down. The charging symbol appeared for 1 sec but then disapperared immediately. Should i think battery is empty oder battery is dead. The charging symbol was completely empty btw. Also it won´t start, only showing the empty charging symbol to me and then turning off again. I guess dead battery right?

OMG!!! :D

Now finally it boots up. Patience has done it!

No toolkits buddy.

Yes fully unlock the device and search for a stock backup or a stock based ROM for your model (side note to remember is keep a SuperSU zip file handy and flash it after a stock ROM flash )

T-Mobile ?

At&t ?

Verizon ?

Sprint ?

The more info you provide about your device the better so people can provide the correct steps

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] csparkes:
I have looked at the postings where users have got the M3100 SAP settings menu to appear.

I folowed the link, was able to show my extended ROM, install the BTSAP_Test.CAB and the menu option appeared to turn on SAP.

My Audi Q7 was able to see the phone and I ws offered the 16 digit code for SAP pairing. Once this was accepted by the phone and the pairing setup, I tried to connect but was unsuccessful.

Is there a limitation on AKU2 for the bluetooth SIM Access Profile? Does this only start to appear from AKU2.3? Any help would be appreciated.

Who is your service provider? Go to them and tell them they sold you a waterproof phone that is indeed not waterproof. I did the same thing last week with an s5.

Until they eliminate the "flaps", I'm not trusting this waterproof nonsense anymore.
