[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] nate39:
actually that is what I was trying to do when I soft bricked my phone. I think where I goof up was the initial flash to nb1. You have to go back to an older build in order to use towelroot. but the file I tried to flash, which was the one he had a link to, was a lot smaller than the ones that actually worked for me. Anyway, if Knox is unhappy I am wondering if it will not let me update to lollipop when it comes to my phone anyway. Got to something though because I don't want this warning popping up all the time, thanks

I'm patiently awaiting my pre-ordered Blue 32GB device so I can finally ditch my SIII.

The only thing I'll be missing from that device/software will be the Smart Stay feature.

I did discover an app to add the feature on non TW devices, but can it be expected to be embedded in an (any) AOSP ROM?

I'd jump on that ROM instantly if it was available.

Thanks!

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NexusIncarnate:
My Nexus 4 won't boot. It gets stuck at the spinning colored circles. I picked up my phone in the morning and the charge was down to 4%, and as I was entering my pin to unlock it powered off. I have lollipop and received the update OTA a couple of weeks ago, and it has been fine. I did not manually install lollipop.

I tried clearing the cache, and it still won't boot. Any ideas of what else I could try? I really don't want to do a factory reset.

Thank you in advance.

I have found that using Nova with gestures works well in combination with Pie Control. I've turned off the softkeys as they require quite a stretch to use one handed. The extra screen real estate is nice.

I have my most common apps arranged in an arc a comfortable distance from the bottom right corner on my primary home screen and use upper left for a weather widget that I don't need to touch. The keyboard is a bit of a stretch but I'm able to use it one handed.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brausepaul77:
Hi,

I recently switched providers (from Fyve to T-Mobile in Germany) and ran into a problem setting up my voicemail. I can't set my voicemail number as I'm getting an error message telling me to contact my provider. An extensive Google search found several other people having this kind of problem. Only rumors exist about the cause of this (T-Mobile Sim cards being to adherent to the standard without going into details) with two possible workarounds:

1) Setting the number while NO card is in the phone.

2) Setting the number while an other card is in the phone.

None of the mentioned workarounds do the trick for me. #1 simply does not set the number, #2 will set the number but it is gone after re-inserting my real card. Does anyone over here knows a solution for this nasty issue?

[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] stormwyrm:
I've had a new Find 7a for a few days, and I'm pretty impressed with the rapid charging it is capable of doing with their VOOC tech. However, since getting a second VOOC charger for use in the office (I'd rather not lug around that brick if I can avoid it) may take some time, I've tried to use some extra chargers I have lying around from devices that are either broken or lost. I tried chargers for an iPad 1st gen, an Asus Transformer 1st gen, and that of a Nexus 7 2nd gen, all of which are rated to provide 2.1 A of current at 5V. I found that none of them actually worked: the charging light turns on, the battery icon says it's charging, but after about 15 minutes, the phone's charge loses a percentage point or two! The same thing with the power bank I carry around.

To figure out why this happens, I got a cheap "charger doctor" gadget that gives a voltage and current reading when plugged between a USB port and a device, and used it to measure the current being provided to my phone. The results were rather surprising to say the least: all the chargers I used gave it only a piddling 150 mA of current! This was very strange so I did a few further experiments later on using different cables and the Nexus 7 charger, and the results were rather interesting:

1. Original Find 7a cable from the box: 850-900 mA

2. Nexus 7 cable: 850-900 mA

3. Nexus 4 cable: 150 mA

4. Galaxy Nexus cable: 150 mA

5. Generic USB multi-pronged cable (includes connectors for mini-USB, Apple 30-pin and Lightning in addition to microUSB) - 500 mA

6. Most other generic USB cables: 150 mA

I got the same results using the iPad and Transformer chargers, as well as the power banks I have. This is very strange, because I can get at least 450 mA from any of the above cables when attempting to charge a Nexus 4 under the same conditions. Same too with the cracked but still operational Asus Memopad HD7 I've got. Anyone know why the Find 7a is so picky with cables? 150 mA seems to be less than the amount of current the phone draws on idle standby, so only cables 1, 2, and 5 provide an amount of current sufficient to actually charge the phone rather than just slowing down its rate of discharge. I wonder if there's some sort of cable that would net me something like 1800-2000 mA, which is the actual rated current of my chargers.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Lord Childe:
Well, maybe the OPPO Find 7 is designed specifically for VOOC/rapid charging. A little charge on the OPPO with my Fonepad 7 1amp charger (sold as a 'quick' charger) took 40 minutes to charge 13% (from 87%) whereas charging the same amount on the 7inch Fonepad took 43min. And my old Dell Streak took 12min to charge 13% with a 1amp charger.

Horses for courses, old man.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] zzzhead:
Stock adapter and charger with screen OFF will get you about 2A. Screen on will be about 500mA to 1A. For some reason..
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] puma99dk|:
erm stormwyrm, the other usb cables you are using don't have as many wires as the VOOC charger does which also do that u can't do more then like ~1amps through them as you can clearly see urself.

The VOOC Charger is 4.5apms and uses 7 pin usb connection to charge with, while my Asus Nexus 7 (2013) USB Cable only got 5pins and comes with a 1.35 amp charger.

i use my VOOC for my Nexus tablet from time to time, but since the tablet is hardware limited to i think it's 2amps not totally sure, but that does that it still charges a little quicker then with a normal cell phones chargers. (I have never used my Asus Charger for my Nexus 7 (2013) bcs i got mine from the UK and the UK plugs don't work in my country.)
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjjcb:
Ever since I got my G3 from Sprint, I haven't been able to see my external SD card on my PC when I connect with my USB cable. I only see my internal memory. This worked perfectly with my Galaxy S3, but it's been problematic from the get-go with this device. I can see and follow the paths on my device using ES File Explorer, but I don't have that path to click on in my File Manager on my laptop.

If I choose PTP, I can see my pictures, but if I choose MTP, I get nothing. I've toggled back & forth with debugging, but that doesn't change anything. Is it a driver I need to download? I have a 32 gig card, and I want to transfer some files to my pc that I no longer need for this device. I also want to more clearly see what's taking up all my memory, because I can't believe I'm using as much as my Settings/Storage says I am. I don't have a whole lot on here since flashing BarRin, and it says I'm using over 30 gb of internal and over 26 of my external. No way!!

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] 7lips7:
Good morning.

I own a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 edition for about a year now.

I sometimes had a problem with my tablet when charging, once I plugged it a red cross would appear on the battery icon, if I left the cross there the tablet would charge terribly slow, I would solve the problem by disconnecting and connecting until the cross was gone, so the tablet could recharge normally (which he did).

That was until yesterday when I put it to recharge and left it overnight, when i woke up i realized it had only charged 48%!! I left it for some hours more and when I went back to check it was still 48%. I turned it off and let it charge, which got me to 100% but when I took it to school after it reached like 40/50% it went instantly to 15% and then to 4%.

I then, when reached home, tried several chargers (all from samsung) and installed this program to check on the battery (battery monitor widget) and it showed me that the mA flow was unstable, from 90mA to 1400mA (while on my samsung S3 the flow was 999 al the time)

I tried all the chargers on my S3 also and they charged my phone from 13% to 100% in 30 minutes, so I think it is not my chargers fault.

Is battery dead?

I leave here three screenshots showing some battery data.

EDIT: I have bought one cover from ebay, that came from china, it has some magnets on the back, could the magnets be somehow related to my battery problem?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] IgottaT/A:
So I've been having the same issue. I do believe there is a connection with the cover. I had removed my cover to inspect the charging port. I couldn't see any damage so I turned on the tablet with the cover still off and plugged in the charger and it worked just fine. Now every time I have to charge I just pull it out of the case, pop the button lip around the port off and then back on back and like magic, it works normally for a period of time.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 88gt:
Ok, so here's the deal my wife was taking a bath and apparently her RAZR maxx HD decided to join her... In doing so it obviously stopped working, I took out the sdcard, and Sim and put those in the spare s4, and then put the RAZR in the rice bucket. I let it sit for over a week, and this morning hooked it up to the computer to retrieve all of her data from it...

This is where things get weird,

On the phone in the gallery she has around 1000 total pictures between screen shots, and actual photos, along with the various website pictures and what not... However, when I moved over ALL of her folders onto the computer and checked the dcim folder, there are zero items inside the folder. So I opened root browser to move the pictures from the dcim folder to a new one, but they aren't there... I then went back to the gallery where I can still flip through all of the pictures, checked the details and it states that they are stored in the dcim folder, neither the phone, nor computer can see them...

On another note. Trying to share any of the pictures via drive, email, Bluetooth, anything, all fail.

Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CWGSM3VO:

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 88gt:

Sometimes i get weird isht like that , pc not seeing things in the phone as if the phone is protecting itself and considering the data as "system file" regarless of electing to show hidden files....try and zip couple px and check if the pc sees them...
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CWGSM3VO:
That happens to me too, usually when the filesystem (int/ext) is updated and you won't see any new data until you unplug and plug back in to the PC but even in such cases, locally, I can see the files from the phone.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 88gt:
Ok guys I figured it out... And I feel pretty stupid. It appears that the phone is "holding" the pictures thumbnails and not the actual pictures themselves. Earlier when I was checking the file paths for the individual pictures I assumed that the sdcard being shown was the internal, I was mistaken it was the external. So I can see the pictures in the gallery but they are only thumbnails... So my wife actually already had all of her pictures on the sdcard.

Thanks for all of the suggestions, hope you all have a good weekend.

The glass cracking thing is pretty rare and mostly the back glass. I would not worry about that.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
Yeah they won't until they see it just in case there is more than meets the eye. LG did the same to me when I dropped my G2 and screen shattered.

Back on topic, the back can be purchased for between $20-30 so at local repair shop it shouldn't cost more than $40-50 if you want some one to repair it for you.

If you want to do it yourself you will need a heat gun to loosen the glue and a suction cup or guitar pick etc to take out the back panel, also you would need to have glue to put the new one in. I forgot to mention, you have to detach the NFC pad from old panel and put it on the new one.

You better just give it to some one to repair it for $40-50 if you are not willing to do the above.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiggyb21:
I am more than comfortable doing it myself. I did it on my Z. I have everything I need including guitar picks.
