[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] hacksaw999:
I haven't got my Note 4 yet, but here are the features that have made me decide on it.

1. Most important is root access. I absolutely will not buy a phone that locks me out of doing what I want. To that end I plan on buying the developer's edition. Incidentally this is what kept me from buying the LG G3. I was VERY interested in it, but by the time root was achieved phones with the 805 processor were just around the corner.

2. Replaceable battery. I tend to buy top of the line gear and then use it for a long time before replacing. Given the limited lifespan of batteries being able to swap a new one in let's me use my toy long after it would otherwise have died. Heck, I just replaced the battery in my Nexus 10. Plus I occasionally like to carry a spare battery on trips.

3. The camera. I've never been much of a photographer but recently I've found myself wishing more and more that I had a decent camera with me. The camera in my current Galaxy Nexus is pretty poor.

4. SD card slot. Since I expect to be taking more pictures and videos than before having the extra storage will be a must!

5. The screen. Love the size, sharpness and color.

6. The multiwindow functionality.

7. I THINK I will like the stylus, but I'm not sure. Never had one on a phone.

A couple of the features I don't care about at all are the heart rate monitor and the fingerprint scanner. I'll probably see if I can disable them entirely just to save battery.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] TabGuy:
This is my third Note (Note 2, 3, 4) and here's why I chose it...

- Removable battery

- SD card.

- Screen size and resolution

- CPU performance.

I never use the SPen so that wasn't a factor.

The big bonus this time is the beauty of the body of this Note. Samsung isn't noted for it's design, they've always been more pedestrian than pretty. The first thing I've always done with Samsung phones was put a case on it. But this one is so beautiful that I refuse to put a case on it.

My favorite feature is the UNLIMITED data

+1 :laugh:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Rippley05:
Good post. I think you'll want to wait because there is a good chance that the Verizon Note 4 will not have root access. Development overall is low, and the phones are locked down. Bad combination for those of us who at least want root.

Hope it does eventually happen, but I don't know.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] guthrien:
Can't believe my coworker has jailbreak on his giant iPhone but this phone isn't rooted! (Somewhat exaggerated outrage) Don't sleep on the camera as a great feature, I find it incredibly improved from Note 3.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] hacksaw999:
I agree. I'm one of the ones who is anxiously awaiting the restock of the Developer Edition.

If for some strange reason I am not able to get a DevEd version and the retail version never does get unlocked I will probably just stick with my old Galaxy Nexus for a while longer. Maybe the LG G4 (or whatever they wind up calling their next flagship) will suit me.

I'm guessing next year's wave of flagship phones will have 64 bit processors so maybe waiting won't be so bad. I am worried based on what Chainfire has said about Android Lollipop, that it will be very difficult to root phones at that point though.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] ToxicSkin:
Coming from a G3 I would have to say

-picture window when in calls when u home button out.

-text message pop up

-S Pen

-Battery

-Working Art

-Camera

-Screen (no oversharpening)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] h3ck:
For text messaging pop up, do you mean like the messaging bubble or is their a pop up notification idk about.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Rippley05:
There is. I thought it was gone but it's there. Message>sertings>notifications>popup
[General Questions and Answers] TheBlackCat13:
Hi, I am trying to find a video camera app with a particular function. The idea is that the camera records in a loop of, say, 30 seconds (that is jut an example), constantly overwriting the beginning to make sure there is always 30 seconds of continuous footage recorded. Then, when you press a button, it saves everything from, say, 10 seconds before the button was pushed to 20 seconds after to a file. Then it starts recording again.

The advantage of this approach is that it lets you capture action more easily, for example sporting events, lightning strikes, birds catching fish, a baby doing something cute, etc. For events that are expected, but too quick and unpredictable to prepare for, human reflexes are too slow (and the phone is often slower), meaning that by the time you hit the button to start recording the event is already over. On the other hand, this approach takes much less storage space and less postprocessing than just recording continuously for minutes or hours.

If you have watched BBC's Planet Earth, it is the same principle used to get the shark attack videos (although that was also a higher-speed camera). I also had a camcorder with a similar function built-in. However, I have not been able to find such an app, either on google play or by searching the forums here. Does anyone know if such an app exists, or if there is an camera app that has this feature?
[General Questions and Answers] ginno95:
Not sure if I'm getting the right idea, but wouldn't this drain battery life?
[General Questions and Answers] TheBlackCat13:
Probably, although how much depends on whether the looped video is short enough to keep in memory. But it wouldn't take any more battery than recording a continuous video, which is the only way to record these sorts of events without this feature.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Miggi03:
Dear all.

I have just bought an sm-n900t Note3 from eBay.

I cannot get this phone to connect to 3G no matter what APN I use.

I guess this is down to the frequencies available from the stock modem flashed?

Using *#2263# I can see the required network 2100 is missing. Is there any other way to add this in?

This leaves me with 2 options.

1. Return it as it is not fully functional in the UK.

2. Flash a UK modem? This is more of a question really. I got a good price so I'm happy to trip knox counter as I was going to put Cyanogen on there anyway.

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Miggi03:
Any ideas?

Could flashing a new modem provide new connection modes? Is it simply because I am on TMB-N900TUVUCNB4 US ROM?

Thanks.
[Moto X Q&A] hardflipman:
Hi, I got an AT&T XT1058 from ebay. I'm in teh UK so I'd really like to flash it with a stock UK ROM. I've had a look on here and with the huge amount of info I can't figure out if this is possible and which rom to use. it's 4.4.2 that's on the phone at teh moment which i believe can't be downgraded or unlocked easily, is that right?

any help would be greatly appreciated

cheers
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
To flash any Rom besides the Stock, Signed Moto ROM for your carrier and model X, you need to unlock the bootloader.

While Moto doesn't give out the Bootloader Unlock Code for the ATT USA XT1058, since you have 4.4.2 on it still, you should be able to use Sunshine to unlock the bootloader. (NOTE: please boot into fastboot/bootloader on the phone, and verify the version on the 2nd line is 30.B4 which is correct for 4.4.2).

Once you use sunshine, you can flash 3rd party recoveries, roms, etc.

While I have NOT done it, I've seen posts of ATT US Xt1058 owners flashing with Parts of the XT1053 rom to remove bloat, etc. (flashing the modems will likely change which wireless bands the phone can connect to). I do not advise flashing another carrier's rom. It could get messy, especially around UPDATE time. And I've seen some lose Cellular and WIFI flashing the wrong modem files.

One final thing. The ATT US XT1058 is SIM/Carrier locked too. So in order to use a non-ATT SIM in it you'll need to obtain a SIM unlock code. You should be able to get this from any web site selling unlock codes on the internet.
[Moto X Q&A] hardflipman:
hey, thanks for the very helpful response :) unfortunately i seem to have suffered from a bout of stupidity writing that and it's 4.4.4 that i've got on the phone! how does that affect things? also as an aside the sim is unlocked so i can use any sim so at least that's something...

thanks again
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
To unlock the bootloader on the ATT XT1058 Moto X, there are only two possible ways..

The China Middleman thread (in the general section), although he only has codes for certain date range of phones (depends on the Assembly Date of your phone), BUT he has recently stopped responding again. There is no telling if/when it will start up again

Sunshine, which doesn't work with 4.4.4. However you can always try it since it wont charge you if it doesn't work. (i.e. it checks your phone, if it will work, if wont, it tells you and exits without charging you).

4.4.4 can't be temp rooted either.

So you are pretty much stuck stock ATT, and then just get it sim unlocked to use it with your carrier.
[Moto X Q&A] hardflipman:
thanks for the reply. I guess i'll give the china middleman a try. I'd really like to get rid of the ATT address book, the fact that it perpetually shows as 4g connection and have the phone speak to me in a not american accent!

cheers
[Moto X Q&A] cxp7:
the same here

at&t xt1058 with stock android 4.4.4 (ota updated from 4.4.2)

system version 212.44.26.ghost_att.ATT.en.US

build no KXA21.12-L1.26

been using this phone in Europe, Greece with another carriers SIM card

everything ok, except for the LTE bands (in Greece I need bands 3,7,20) and the AT&T bloatware i wanna remove

would like to root, but i'm not able to unlock via motorola's website

let me know if u had any success via the china middleman, or if u find another way

thanks :)
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
As I said.. the China Middleman has stopped responding again.
[Moto X Q&A] MadPriest:
I'm on Rogers xt1058 (16GB)

Is there any way (assuming I can unlock the BL) to get developer edition ROM?
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
For the Rogers XT1058, Moto does offer the Bootloader Unlock code for free from their web site -> https://motorola-global-portal.cust...e/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a/action/auth it will void your warranty

The GSM Dev Edtion is the XT1053. It has different radio/modem files, its hardware supports different bands (less LTE bands). I never recommend flashing another model's ROM as we have seen loss of cellular in some cases, where even flashing the original firmware back didn't fix.

Once you unlock your bootloader and root, you can remove and freeze any bloat on the phone (freezing is preferred because the next OTA might require it to be there).
[Moto X Q&A] MadPriest:
Thank you for the reply

I'm on 4.4.4, I understand there's no root for me
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
Only if you can't unlock your boot loader. But as I said, moto does give out the unlock codes on their web site for the Rogers xt1058

Also, without unlocking the boot loader, you can only flash the rom for your phone model and its carrier branding.
[Moto X Q&A] MadPriest:
I see

Thank you for the answers

I knew the second part, was not sure about the first one.
[Asus Zenfone 4] Al Hussein:
Firstly sorry for my english

My ASUS ZENFONE 4 [A400CG] was hard bricked and bootloop for the past 2 weeks.

Whenever i turned on my phone it always stuck at the ASUS IN SEARCH OF INCREDIBLE LOGO.

My phone still can go to droidboot. I have also tried to flash my phone with firmware from ASUSTek and also my phone is not rooted is that the cause i failed to flash my rom? But when i flash using fastboot flash partition filename.zip it worked but my phone still wont boot properly. By the way i also cannot use adb command because it said no devices found and i can find my asus device from the computer screen but instead i used fastboot command. Can somebody help me then i will subscribe that person.
[Asus Zenfone 4] rongregoryred:
Same Poblem!

My zenfone 4 problems:

I dont have bootloops, but it wont start.

Cant access to droidboot or recovery (stuck at android icon with a yellow helmet), so i cant flash a rom or firmware.

Tried different combo keys, but always stuck with that android icon.

Wait hours, but it wont boot.

Tried the Asus flash tool (AFT) but it detects my serial number as "111111111",

so I cant flash an image.

Hope someone can help me! Please! Thank you! :crying::crying::crying:
[Asus Zenfone 4] thavish:
Have u installed intel android drivers???[emoji53] [emoji53]
[Asus Zenfone 4] Al Hussein:
Yes i did...

Yes I did but my computer cannot detect using adb instead it only can detect fastboot :(
[Asus Zenfone 4] thavish:
Which did u install??

The one from intel website or the one from asus website?
[Asus Zenfone 4] cognitive:
Reflash stock rom
[Asus Zenfone 4] Al Hussein:
I downloaded from intel website and the problem start when i tried to flash my rom with this post http://xdaforums.com/android/development/rom-asus-zenfone-4-stock-ww-4-3-11-t2873905 :)
[Asus Zenfone 4] thavish:
Okay.

So how's ua phone now
[Asus Zenfone 4] Al Hussein:
Still stuck at ASUS IN SEARCH OF INCREDIBLE LOGO.

Btw what happen if we erase dalvik cache and what the causes?
[Asus Zenfone 4] thavish:
Erasing dalvik cache doesn't do any harm to the phone u can do it
[Asus Zenfone 4] Al Hussein:
But how do i erase dalvik cache because whenever i fastboot erase dalvik_cache it said unable to format
[Asus Zenfone 4] thavish:
Why don't u take it to the service Centre
[Asus Zenfone 4] Al Hussein:
Hhhhmmmm I send my phone for repair at the local shop instead of service center and they were unable to fix the problem :rolleyes: maybe I should buy a new phone btw thanks for your help :)
[Asus Zenfone 4] handasan10:
Mine also detected as 111111111 on AFT

I solve it by:

1. Rename any zip file downloaded from official asus website to ASUS_BUNDLE.zip and copy to sd card, then insert it into zenfone

2.Open AFT

3.Enter droidboot and connect to pc

4.Choose sd card download and it will fail

5.Open AFT and you see your serial is back to normal again

6.Continue flashing with AFT

7.Done

I have using Samsung about year now. And wanted use custom rom, because there is no bloatware and what is important too, battery draining is better than stock.

But there is so many of them and even from same developer. Why? Why just do one and do it good. Now every rom have some issue and some rom battery draining fast.

What i want is good battery and phone can use daily usage. No need anything special settings to mod interface or hardware. These comes always issues with.

i have a problem with my unit showing only 0.11mb storage available

under device info->Hardware:confused:

rom ver 1.11.00 WWE

radio ver 1.00.00

protocol ver 1337.39

ExtRom Ver (just blank)

i was running extRom Unlock earlier which was really a stupid thing to do:mad:

appreciate any help anyone could suggest to fix this

thanks
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] animelover:
Have you reflashed your device with the ROM image from your provider or the original Qtek ROM?

But I think you've totally damaged your Storage! Bad but true! :(
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] horiba:
does it mean it's gone....& no other way of recovering it

all i did was running the ExtROM unlocker & unhide

& DOC repartitioning tool

can anyone tell me what is the standard

storage like for XDA 2i

currently i can see tot main memory 121.8 mb

which split into

program memory 50.8mb &

storage memory 71.0mb

then i have storage card (which depend on SD card size)

& storage of 0.1 mb only (which i think should be around 50 ++mb)

thanks

:cool:
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] horiba:
storage fixed

hmm finally i've fixed it...

what actually happen is the DOC partition tool

got me fooled....by default it partition only 128kb of my ROM

that's why i only got 0.11mb storage space

by just guessing the actuall size i've tried from 128 mb & going down

finally i got ~60 mb

thanks for the input.....yeah:o

Its A great Find

This is by far one of the best one i have found for Xolo Q3000, really love the fonts and color theme used which makes it unique.

Haven't observed any lag or issue..battery back up is great too.

There is one tiny bit thing. I noticed there is no System Equilizer..have to use viper4android and once i use that after 15-20 minutes the sounds starts to crack. It isnt really clear so would be great if you could look into the same.

Hi there

FIRST OFF I REALLY DONT KNOW WHERE I SHOULD HAVE POSTED THIS, SO BARE WITH ME :)

[IMG="About my phone"]https://i.imgur.com/lSM3Dw5.png[/IMG]

So yesterday I installed CM11 through the CM installer, and everything went fine. I then discovered how tough it was to import my facebook friends phonenumbers into my People app(contacts). I did som research and found this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2064859 , I followed the guide, but it wouldnt work, so i moved my backup of the Contactprovider.apk into the system/priv-app and thought that would fix it. But it didnt, I think this is were i made hell brake lose, i went into the system/priv-app folder and installed the apk(contact.apk and contactprovider.apk), I then restarted my phone, and now its ****. I starts by prompting me that the process "com.android.systemui" has stopped, when pressed ok, it pormpts me with the process com.anodroid.phone has stopped and finally the porcess com.google.process.gapps has stopped. I cant press ok to the last prompt....the worst part is that I just sat the phone up with some really importat 2-way authentications, I would hate to go through a long and painless process in gaining my accounts back....

I really hope someone has a hack so that i can either fix the entire problem or just gain som access to my google authenticator. :) or atleast can point me in the right direction.. ?
