[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattMJB0188:
Advantages:

*Optimized software. A big plus if coming from a Samsung galaxy device. Like a HUGE plus.

*Fast updates

*Completely unlocked (bootloader included) if buying form GP. I can't think of a reason why anyone would buy from their carrier?

*Motorola signal quality. Their devices always have the best signal reception.

Disadvantages:

*Lack of Super AMOLED? I don't know, maybe this is just a gripe?

*No SD card slot. Yeah this sucks.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elementaldragon:
for #2... with the Nexus 4 and 5 supporting SlimPort HDMI output.... i'd find it very odd if the Nexus 6 didn't. GSMArena also shows it supporting it.

As for #1.... not everyone finds that to be a disadvantage. The only people i can see using 128GB of storage, be it built-in or expanded, are those who either love to have a library of music on their phone at all times, or those who horde EVERYTHING (Apps, pictures, etc...) on their phone. For me, i would have liked to have been able to order the 64GB model... but seeing as i've been getting along just fine with my 16GB Nexus 5 for the past year.... 32GB isn't a bad idea either, and wasn't going to pass up on the opportunity of ordering one simply because of storage space. And if i NEED storage.... well.... that's what a 64GB USB-OTG flash drive is for.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unconn:
I thought all the versions (Play & T-Mobile) of the Nexus 5 were unlocked?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iZack187:
Way too many advantages so I won't list any, lol.

As for disadvantages:

No SD slot (but that was expected...),

No Super AMOLED (also expected as Samsung wouldn't hurt their own sales-Note4),

No IR (I have smart TVs, my Note 3 is able to control them over both IR and WiFi since they are Samsung TV also)

No cool accessories at all! All those (SLIM) wallet cases and digital ink cases for Samsung and HTC devices, plus things like Gear VR :(

No physical camera button... I mean... with a phone that size... I'm pretty sure they had enough space for a camera shutter button...

Not completely waterproof certified, it annoys me because it seems like all they had to do was block the open ports (Charger and headphone)!!

I know that seems like a lot of disadvantages but I was just thinking of The Perfect Phone...which will never exist, lol. All in all, I am very excited to get my hands on the Nexus 6 :D

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liqn7:
Summarising my thoughts on the device in comparison to other flagships:

Pros

- Android 5.0 & guaranteed timely future updates

- Large 6" screen in a decent slim bezel form factor

- Always on voice commands

- Dual front facing stereo speakers

- Build quality

- Great developer support

Cons/could have done better

- Mediocre-average battery life (especially for a phablet)

- High res screen comes at the cost of battery life, brightness and colour accuracy without tangible benefits over 1080P for most people

- Average middling camera

- No Snapdragon 810 = less future proofing and no 64bit android. Misses out on the 20nm processing which promises 40-50% better battery life with 50% better performance. S805 is old tech – last of the 28nm series which has been around since 2013. Heck with the availability issues anyway I'd much rather it launch in Jan-Feb and get S810.

- No SD storage

- Price – Google sold out to the US carriers which needed premium pricing to get it on their subsidised plans. Screws the rest of the world over though.

- Availability

- Nano sim – hardly the standard in the android world. Makes it hard to change between/from other devices/tablets

- Lack of Phablet customisations in the UI with no 3rd party alternatives currently through xposed.

Overall I'm pretty disappointed as it could have been so much more from both a HW and SW point of view. Definitely not a day 1 purchase for me, maybe in the future if the XZU 4 doesn't materialise/disappoints and we see more of a price drop.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxys:
Starting to lean towards waiting for maybe a Sony Xperia Z4/Z4 Ultra & other S810 device's announcemenst at CES 2015...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxKINGxX2580:
Don't have the phone yet, but for me,

Advantages: QHD screen, 3GB RAM, pure stock Android, Wireless Charging, Very easy to root

Disadvantages: 6" Screen. Just a little bit too much for me. The sweet spot for me is 5.2"-5.5". (But I'm sure I'll get used to it), front camera is still 2MP, and battery is 3220 mAh, but people are saying it only has around 5 hours of on screen time.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spartanm99:
Advantages:

- Stock OS

- 3GB RAM

- Snapdragon 805

- 5.95inch screen

- No physical home buttons

Disadvantages:

- Relatively average battery (should've been 3500-3900mh ideally; it would've fit)

- Screen is ok, but nothing special (not as bright or vivid as iPhone 6+ or Note 4)

- Too thick (10.1mm at the thicket point), should've been thinner (7 to 8mm would be great)

- Cameras are average, an improvement from last year but nothing to write home about.

- Not 64-bit despite all the work that went into making the OS 64-bit ready (understable though due to processor releases).

- The fact that the Nexus 6 will not hold its ground as well as the Nexus 5 (which is still a good phone a year after release; the Nexus 6 will not likely be able to maintain the same longevity as the Galaxy S6 is out soon expected Snapdragon 810, 3-4GB RAM, even better display and cameras + bigger battery).
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rodeojones:
I don't yet have the device, but my initial thoughts mirror many on here. But I'd like to add two more disadvantages - no removable battery (surely this was expected, though). As a current G3 owner, having a spare battery with me when I know I'll be using my phone a lot while away from a charger is great. Also, current availability MUST be listed as a disadvantage. I'm ready to buy the 64GB model right now and the longer I have to wait the better the chance is I'll move on and wait for something else.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebrandsberg:
Everybody,

So I've had my OPO for a while, but I've noticed a few times that after being booted for a period of time (several days to a week), the speaker output seems to go silent. This means that when I use the volume control, it no longer sounds as I move it higher or lower, phone ringing is mute, etc. If I plug in a headset, I can hear everything fine there. Upon a reboot, it goes back to normal however.

Has anybody else noticed this behavior?

I am on CM 11.0-XNPH38R, although I believe I observed this at least once on the previous build. It "feels" like it is getting stuck in headphone output mode.

Any help or supporting observations if this is a general problem, or something specific to my unit would be helpful. Thanks!

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] BlackSoil:
Excuse me.. I'm newbie here...

What do you guys suggested rom for dopod 818? And how to upgrade a rom, and what is the risk to to that?

Thx..
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] kta:
The latest official ROM from Dopod is ver 2.15. You can download this from the official site www.dopodasia.com. You have to register before downloading it, so have your IMEI ready.

You may also opt for an unofficial or cooked ROM. Howver these are not official Dopod818 Pro ROMs. They are Wizard ROMS that are customised or cooked to work on the Prophet. Expect minor problems here and there, depending on the ROM you choose. Installation for these ROMS varies on the customised ROM that you select.

If you look hard enough on the internet you will also find a WM6 ROM running around for Prophet. This is based on a leaked beta WM6 (Crossbow) ROM for the Wizard. It is known to be quite buggy though.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] BlackSoil:
Oooh... thx..

I interested in costumized rom, and where can I download it? Can 'aku' work on dopod 818? Thx again...
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] kta:
Do you have Dopod 818 or 818PRO?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] BlackSoil:
818 pro...
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] kta:
Then YES, you can install the AKU roms found in this forum, Jester's, LvSW, etc.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] BlackSoil:

it is good practice to google thru wiki & forum pages for basic Q&A, as

it also increases knowledge base.

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] kta:
There's no point backing up your current ROM because you would not be able to restore it after you put a different ROM. In theory you can, using Sprite backup, but it is NOT recommended.

Backup your contacts, etc by synching with your PC and if you don't like the new ROM just install the official ROM from Dopod again.

Hi

Recently my google play store has said no connection. I deleted the cache, uninstalled freedom, checked the date and time, uninstalled the updates........ But to no prevail. I also noticed that when I used google search, it said sign in error. I signed out of my google account, but now can't sign back in. It says connection error. Is there anything I can do apart from factory reset? Thanks :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] malimt:
Hello guys,

I have a SG2 T989 Model.

I went ahead and rooted it today, then went ahead and installed TWRP Recovery, then I went ahead and flashed a;

[Stable CM10.2 Hercules Firmware/Software.]

From here; http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=hercules&type=stable

Then I also went ahead and got;

GApps for CM10.2 .

Then rebooted and it turned on in

Cyanogenmod.

Everything was working fine until I rebooted my phone and then the phone would turn on and show;

" Samsung"

Logo and then it would dissapear very quickly and the screen would go

"Blank off"

I fixed it by going back to;

TWRP backing up my data files, then factory reset, wipe cache, then I installed 10.2 over again, Installed GApps then wiped dalvik Cache, then finally Rebooted.

It turned on, I setup everything again, didn't restore my files yet, tried restarting to make sure everything is okay/fine before restoring, but..... I guess not, for some unknown reason it keeps happening.

I hope someone can help me here.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] malimt:
Strangely enough, I have solved the issue.

CM10.2 Seems to be buggy.....

So I downloaded a stable version of CM10.1.3 and Downloaded GApps 10.1 and flashed both Via TWRP Recovery and I also had to wipe/factory reset in order to downgrade followed by Wipe Cache and Dalvik.

Then now it's rebooting perfectly fine, everything is more than fine for the past 2hours. Thank god.

Nice one, Joe is one cute lil alien.

Just a little suggestion, i think the main menu is too busy.

May be you can dim down a bit on the space ship backgroud, less saturation. so that the buttons and high score can stand out more.

Just personal opinion, you can totally ignore it, haha

good creation.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Drychembrehm:
I apologize for having to ask this question. I've tried to do my research on this and figure it out myself, but most of the info I've found has been relevant to the version current at that time. And, I'm still relatively new to this.

I'm currently on NC5 with Safestrap 3.72 running Hyperdrive RLS19. It's running well and everything, but I'd like to compare it to Echoe ROM (since those two seem to be the two best safestrap compatible TW style ROMs) and see which I prefer. The problem is, I can't figure out if certain versions of Echoe are designed for use with SS3.72 or if they all are. How do I differentiate between all of the different versions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DX.Deception:
Can't really tell you which version of echoe you should run, but if I was you I would update to SS 3.75 that Muniz_Ri updated and fixed the ability to run multiple rom slots.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scryan:
Where are you getting the Rom from? There has to be information about it on its download about if it works with safestrap and what update/baseband its based on.

Compatibility is more about matching the Rom to what stock update was the last one you took, or more accurately your baseband (NC5, MK2, MDK, whatever. Look it up in "about device" , pay attention to the last 3 characters given under baseband, and use a rom that was made for that baseband.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soolay:
Hello guys,

I have been flashing roms for a while now. Turns out that 2 months ago i flashed CM11 (nightly version) and everything was going fine until i tried to "network unlock" my s3 (the company code that enables you to use any sim in the world), and the software that i was going to use would only work in 4.0.4! My mistake.... downgraded to a version of 4.0.4, and since then i dont have any signal (circled icon in top bar).

What i did:

- Read a lot of guides here

- Flash a XXMG4 modem which fixed my signal and not my EFS

- Restore my EFS

Where is the problem?

- If i restore my EFS directory with root explorer (copy, paste/replace in root directory), i get signal and i can make calls again, but if i reboot, the efs directory (and other directories in /) are blank.

- I guessed that it was a problem of permissions, so i set the same permissions of the "after-botting-efs-created" directory, and nothing happened, after i reboot, even the efs folder created by the system, gets recreated again.

- Then i thought that there was an issue with something else and i checked the phone with EFS PRO, and when i try to fix nv_data or the EFS, it says that the software fails to mount the efs. So i assume that my issue could be related to some corrupted partition or something.

In the meanwhile i cant upgrade to 4.1 because the efs is corrupted and ill get boot loop once i flash 4.1. Resuming, only 4.0.4 is working right now and the efs gets regenerated.

Any help? Did i miss some guide? :(
