[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wtherrell:
Thanks jt3. You answered his questions much better than I ever could. [emoji3]
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jt3:
A charge-only cable (assuming it's Android compatible) will help if the car's USB is 1A or 2A. It won't do anything if it's only 500mA. Unfortunately, most "public" USB ports (cars, hotel rooms, etc.) tend to be 500mA. Definitely worth a try, though, because that trend is changing now that tablets are becoming more popular.

As for those links. I don't have experience with them, but they sound great. If you end up getting one or both of them, let us know how it turns out.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droid316:
So I was on a 4.4 Rom slimkat for the longest time then I switched to a TouchWiz Rom alliance Rom then back to a 4.4 Rom slimkat which in on now, my problem now is that I can't seem to save data to my sd card now like I was able to before.I have read something about this but not sure how to make it to where I can download and save stuff to my sd card instead of my internal storage.any thoughts?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droid316:
Something about moving/deleting all the files off of the emulated folder?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
KitKat doesn't have write access to the micro SD card, so you have to save to phone memory then cut/copy/paste it to micro SD.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droid316:
Oh thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droid316:
Doesn't that mess up the md5 on some files
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Lol no, if this were the case, how would devs ever upload a file for us to download and provide an md5 without it changing? The md5 changes once you modify the zip itself. Cut/copy/paste just moves the file.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XdrummerXboy:
In some cases I ran into issues doing that as well, cutting and pasting resulted in corrupted data.

The workaround is giving the file manager app root permissions, since with root there's some kind of workaround.

I use ES File Manager, had issues before I gave it root, but after I gave it root copying/moving hasn't had issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droid316:
Well hell I probably have to format my sd card I can't even delete stuff off it, keeps saying delete failed
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XdrummerXboy:
That's pretty weird. What file browsing app are you using?

Easy Fix

I ran into this problem when I finally updated my phone to KitKat and a little searching around these forums resulted in the discovery of exactly what causes the problem and what fixes it. It was already mentioned that KitKat doesn't support writing directly to external SD card from apps. There are a few lines of a config file that can be changed to fix this. There is also a free app available in the Play store that does it for you, but it requires root. It's called SD Fix: KitKat and I would have included a link but I haven't posted enough times yet to post outside links.

[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pipspeak:
the compass on my Z3c is constantly 10-15 degrees off. I've calibrated it through the service menu and also through the compass app I use and it gets it to within a few degrees of true, then a day later it's all out of whack again. I use the 4-flips calibration method (flip phone 4 times on each axis). I've also tried the figure-of-eight method but found it's less reliable.

Does anyone else have a problem with compass calibration?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlueScreenJunky:
Yes, I've had that problem on all my phones (Nexus One, Galaxy S2, Nexus 5, and now Z3c), I guess these are just not reliable.

Use wakelock detector to determine which apps may running at same time (e.g Google Maps is running even though i disabled it manually)

1. Find wakelock detector tutorial to run on Kitkat, useful to check any excessive app running at background

2. Auto startup manager, disable uncessary apps at boot

3. In dev settings, enable kill all process (no apps would running anymore), i dont like this since killing process might be not good for OS stability

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToolB0x:
Hey guys, I recently flashed the factory Lollipop image from my Nexus 5 (LRX210) and everything was running great.

Not soon after I set up my Tap & Pay, I realized that I couldn't complete my purchases. I thought maybe it was my Wallet app, or something was wrong with the priority of the wallet app, but that wasn't that case.

I tried beaming content via NFC to many other androids, but it was like my NFC card was dead. I didn't get any feedback from other devices, and even when I scanned a NFC tag it didn't react.

My NFC card was working fine before I went to 5.0, does anyone else have this problem? Really hoping I can get some info about it.

Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToolB0x:
Bump :/
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hettab:

Same here . my sony qx 10 wont conect . my g2 also . nfc is dead
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToolB0x:
So I guess very few have this issue then?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Try pressing down on the back cover where the qi and NFC connectors are. If that doesn't work then you'll have to open it up or RMA.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToolB0x:
I was just reading up on it. Before I upgraded I opened up the back cover to show my friend the internals, then I snapped the cover back on (without pushing the back cover). A week past, then I updated to Lollipop. Another week has past since I upgraded and I just now realized the NFC wasn't working. I got my friend to let me use his wireless charger, and it worked fine. I also tried pushing the back in to hear that extra snap, but nothing has seemed to work.

Edit: I also flashed the factory image for KitKat, and NFC still does not work.

Perhaps I should be more detailed when I say "not working." The NFC does indeed recognize NFC tags and other enabled devices, however it does not vibrate like it should, or work like it should. I have many NFC tags that I bought and were working just fine. I tried them out 1 by 1 with my Nexus, and every time I scanned 1, a white screen would flash for a very brief moment, as if it was a windows opening and then closing before the animation finished. I used the NFC Tools app, and it recognizes the tags, but it can't read, write, lock, or do anything to them. I downloaded an app called NFCSniffer, and I get feedback from tags as well. But it seems as though my NFC chip is not working correctly ever since I opened the back. I'm really confused about this whole situation and wish I hadn't even opened the thing.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Weird. In all the cases I know of, the NFC chip is either completely dead or just not connected properly. Try opening it up and putting it together again. If that doesn't help then I guess you'll have to replace the chip.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToolB0x:
Alrighty, I'll let you know how it goes.

Thanks for the responses.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToolB0x:
Alright well I guess that didn't work... Can you recommend a good place to buy a chip?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Not sure where exactly one would find them. Just have to search for one, or if they don't exist then I guess you'll have to send it to LG for repair.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToolB0x:
Alright, thanks for the info.

The one you can buy from Samsung works. Keep your eyes open for a 50% off coupon.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] lovekeiiy:
you can probably get one from Monoprice.com pretty cheap. Just check to see if the microUSB end is a 5pin or 11pin. You may need to get a 5pin to 11pin adapter.

Confirmed a generic mhl adaptor will work with a 5 to 11pin adaptor. With or with out power cable. I keep a power cable on it because it drains more battery while playing

I read some of the reviews for the Samsung mhl adapter ,lots of complaints about it not charging the phone fast enough and it stop working after a while. Guess I'll have to try it out thanks for the responses .

Do you need the 5 to 11 pin adapter with the Samsung mhl adapter?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] iridaki:
I have the Samsung one and it's working great. It charges the phone enough so that the battery doesn't drain while the phone's connected. Don't get me wrong, the percentage may go up, but of course not as fast as if it were charging normally. And it certainly doesn't go down. So all in all, a worthy investment.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] KusMoG:
I just ordered the MHL 3.0 HDTV Adapter from Samsung's store and I think that may be what you're looking for. Unfortunately, I can't provide any user feedback for it myself because I haven't received it yet. Probably will once I do.

I think the reason why the Samsung MHL adapter has been getting bad reviews, particularly for the Note 4, is because they're using the MHL 2.0 adapter, which supports everything from the Galaxy S5 and older.

The MHL 3.0 adapter supports higher power charging and should be able to support the Note 4's power demands, as well as display out 1440p video, something the MHL 2.0 adapter can't do.

I'll report back on the Samsung MHL 3.0 adapter after I receive it (hopefully Monday, ordered it just this morning).

I'd post a link to the adapter but I haven't posted enough to have the permission to.

Also, like previously mentioned, there is a 50% coupon code out there. Apparently you were supposed to receive this when you registered your phone. I called Samsung's store support phone number about this and they confirmed the 50% off coupon does exist and that it may have gone to my Spam folder. After I told her that I may have accidentally deleted it (I try to review my spam folder before deleting but it is HARD when you receive hundreds), she was happy to do the order for me with the 50% off over the phone. I guess YMMV but just throwing it out there because it's possible. People from New York City interested in this, your total would amount to $31.51 after tax and shipping charges (via UPS 3Day/$3.95)

Edit: If you haven't registered your Note 4 with Samsung, do it and you will receive the 50% coupon code minutes after registering it. My coworker just did it for his Note 4 and got the coupon code via email.

Have you considered getting a Chromecast? You can mirror you phone to your tv wirelessly. Best thing about it is it only costs $35.00. I've got 3 of em and use them regularly for my Note 4 and other devices I have...highly recommended

[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] ihateu:
Dude great review!
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] KusMoG:
Yeah it can mirror. It's the only type of display out it can do. So your phone and your TV will be playing the same thing at all times. It's probably the most reliable screen mirroring option out there. But ask yourself this: Do you really want a wired solution?

For video streaming I actually prefer the Chromecast. It chokes up every now and then but the freedom of a wireless connection is so much better.

---------- Post added at 07:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:48 PM ----------

I can see where the MHL 3 adapter has its uses.

If you need a portable HDMI adapter solution for on-the-go presentations or video-out to an HDMI display, it's for you. It's more reliable than a Chromecast/Roku Stick/Fire Stick because it doesn't need wifi to work. You'll just need to supply the HDMI cable. It can also run on the phone's battery without a USB wall charger and display-out for as long as your Note 4's battery can hold.

I DON'T recommend the adapter for gaming though. It's a shame. It's so close but it just comes up short to fulfilling expectations.

In the end, for me, I DON'T think the MHL 3 adapter is worth it. Its original price is expensive and my Chromecast can do the same things wirelessly and better, and it's cheaper.

I was looking for a keychain with Bluetooth so I could enable the trusted device feature to disable my security screen when my phone is paired.

I did some research and found an Indiegogo campaign for GOkey. It's a keychain that acts as a trusted Bluetooth device, has a battery pack, a charging cable, AND USB storage all rolled into one! Shipments go out in January, and they are still accepting discounted preorders.

This is why i hate crowd funding!!

"Dear Backers:

I sincerely regret to inform you that GoKey lacks the funds to complete the delivery of a viable product. We ran into technical difficulties that we could not resolve. There are no funds left to cover claims of suppliers and others or to offer refunds. I have been exploring all avenues to raise additional funds so that we could complete and deliver the product, but we have been unsuccessful.

I honestly fought with all I had to do good at the end. Tried so hard to raise a round or form a partnership to deliver. And there have been times where a deal was looking 100% certain. But the age of the product, the liability and the negative cloud hanging over it always prevailed.

I am left with no alternative but to completely cease and shut down all operations and activities and consider filling for bankruptcy.

I feel terribly shameful for letting you down.

I am sorry,

I believe locking the bootloader after it has been unlocked wipes the user data partition. It happened to me twice. To make sure, I reverse engineered the aboot partition and found that the lock and unlock functions both call a subroutine that formats the "userdata" partition.
[Nexus 6  General] wtherrell:
Yes, that has been true from the start, I believe. All Nexii since at least Gnex and N7 phones and tablets. I think it's also true with other phones with unlockable bootloaders
[Nexus 6  General] lensgrabber:
IIRC both unlocking and locking the bootloader will wipe data. That's why if you are going to install custom recovery it's better to do it before loading up a ton of apps.
