Please read or search the thread as it has been answered there by at least myself, and probably others. Even though it is taking longer to writ this post I feel that you need to learn to fend for your self at least a little on the internet. If you don't learn to find things that others have already written, then I hold very little hope for you.

Lol I did do a search, it was just hard to find it for Sony.... As Samsung etc is different.

I did find it answered with a simple yes, but no explanation.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
For anyone that finds this thread... No that OTA shouldn't work, if you are offered it DON'T flash it as it will either fail or if it does flash it WILL BRICK a standard ZU

[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vianna:
I'm considering buying a Moto E this Black Friday and I want some advice from owners of this device.

My daily driver is a Moto X 2013 16 GB running stock 4.4.4, rooted with Xposed. I'm absolutely in love with this phone and all Motorola has done in in it, but I can't use it everywhere. It's been stolen once already, and I've been looking for a phone to use when I'm going to places where it can be easily lost or stolen (currently using a very old phone with Froyo that can't even handle SwiftKey and averages 6 hours standby time). The Moto X doesn't have enough storage for all my songs, so I either have to carry a MP3 player with me all the time or only sync part of my library.

From what I've read, the Moto E looks like an inexpensive phone that fits both use cases. Also I'm dying for Android L and I need Xposed on my daily driver.

How is the audio quality with headphones? I don't need it to be excellent, but at least put some use to the 320 kbps MP3s.

How is the battery life for audio playback? I've read the battery drops quickly playing videos. Is that true with audio too? Does the phone become hot?

I don't need Dual SIM, but both models are the same price. Is there any advantage to the Single SIM variant (I'd guess it could have better dev support, quicker OTAs, longer battery life, better reception)?

Would you recommend it, or do you know better alternatives I might have missed?

edit: Comparing the two variants it looks like the Single SIM has more 3G bands that my carrier supports. That means better reception, right?
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pdpmoto:
I say audio quality is not the best I don't think you can notice difference between flac & mp3
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neo.ank:
1.) Audio quality is OK,its not the audiophile quality though. However, I don't rely on android media lib for music decoding. I use Neutron and it has its own codec libs and yes, with good earphones, the diff is clear in lossless and mp3s esp low freqs. So if you do listen to lossless, that is the player recommended.

2.)Battery life is been great for me. It lasts better than any other I've used. I don't watch videos or play games much but for music its good. It does get hot though after continuous music playback.

3.) Single sim runs on stock Android so it will certainly receive updates before dual sim variant. That's totally depends on your personal choice and requirements.

4.) I can't comment on other devices in the segment as I haven't used any other.
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vianna:
Would you happen to know how does it compare to other phones and dedicated music players?

That question on audio was poorly written by me. I clarified it a little.

Hi there,

Anyone had problem of battery does not last as it should and not only short life's but also intermittent turn off by itself.

I do some cleaning of my Nexus 5 and took it out from the case I put on and you know what? I found the back cover was pop out at the middle closer to the bottom. With my curiosity, I tryp to pry open the back cover and found the battery was swellen cause this.

I don't have a camera with me to snap the picture of it at that time and I quickly close it back and do backup of my data and leave it there for the moment. Scared hell out of me looking at the swellen battery.

I had my Nexus 5 for 10 months. Do you think Google will allowed me for warranty claim?

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] max786:
After updating to Android 5.0 (official release), my nexus 4 is having some problems with cellular networks. Phone works fine until suddenly it loses the cellular network, network signals disappear and only gets it back after rebooting.

So far I have tried

1. Tried to turn off the radio and then turn it on

2. Changing the Sim Card

3. Factory reset

4. re-flashing factory images

5. Turning the airplane mode on & off

6. tried different network setting (GSM only, WCDMA preferred, GSM/WCDMA auto etc)

Nothing seems to solve the problem. The only way to get the signals back is to reboot. Phone was working fine before updating to Android 5.0. Is there anything else I could try to fix this issue? Any help regarding this problem will be highly appreciated. :confused:

[Nexus 6  General] Cheetohz:
So, I saw this come up, my phone is set to be delivered tomorrow. I wanted to know if I was eligible. The rep said no, device must be purchsed between 11/28-12/1 and at the rate things are going, none will be in stock on 11/28 so no nexus purchases will receive the $50 credit. ugh...

https://play.google.com/intl/ALL_us/bf-cb/promo-terms.html#play-credit-offer
[Nexus 6  General] zephiK:
Actually Midnight blue, Cloud White (32GB) and Midnight blue (64GB) was in stock tonight.

https://play.google.com/store/devices/details/Nexus_6_32GB_Midnight_Blue?id=nexus_6_blue_32gb Midnight Blue 32GB is the only one in stock right now.
[Nexus 6  General] Cheetohz:
Correct, but these were all sold out now, and it is still only 11/27 so none of these were eligible for the $50 credit which states it must be purchased from 11/28-12/1
[Nexus 6  General] journeyman73:
Wow. I just ordered a 64 GB MB and missed the window by 3 minutes
[Nexus 6  General] zephiK:
Thats quite subjective, its 11/28 over here already and I'm sure the rep would let it pass by being only several hours if you're on the west coast. You ordered weeks ago.

Just my opinion but with as bad as this launch has been, Google should be offering this promo to anyone that was able to even buy a N6.
[Nexus 6  General] banzaiwolfe:
They really should be. Mine hasn't even shipped yet and they've already offered a better deal.
[Nexus 6  General] alhadee12:
Is this just through Google when you purchase your phone or do you get it also when purchasing from a carrier?
[Nexus 6  General] crypt0kiddie:
Yeah Google and Moto failed at the N6 release. I just finally got a working N6 today. I should be able to get the $50.00 dollar Play Store credit!
[Nexus 6  General] alhadee12:
I got mine from AT&T and so far it's fine. I've been going back and forth with the Edge. O would like that credit.
[Nexus 6  General] ThePalindrome:
I just asked two representatives, and they both said that this was only valid for Google Play Store purchases.
[Nexus 6  General] alhadee12:
That's crazy.
[Nexus 6  General] jrockie:
Google Play and Sprint purchases only and I guess it has to be between a certain date. :(
[Nexus 6  General] indianajonze:
i had that opinion as well, and emailed google about it. they were having none of it. denied after 3 attempts. f them
[Nexus 6  General] cardusan:
That is technically a $50 credit to make up for Sprint charging $50 more for 32GB version... if Sprint is dropping the ball Google felt they do not want to drop it and offered this.

If someone orders via Google Play, then great, but all who purchased devices from google play should be eligible since return policy still applies until 14 days are up... but, who would return the phone back because of $50 credit...

I may sweet talk their rep into getting the credit since they are shipping me the replacement due to Vertical and horizontal lines banding on my initial phone I got...

Besides that this phone is an absolute phone of today's market!!! Must have, and yes it is big :)
[Nexus 6  General] Yoji0808:
I called google about this a few hours ago. I told them I had ordered my nexus on Nov. 5 and just recently saw the $50 play credit. They transfered me to a nexus 6 device rep and he wasn't able to give me the $50 because i got it before the promo but he hooked me up with a $25.
[Nexus 6  General] banzaiwolfe:
Sprint doesn't charge more for the 32GB version anymore.
[Nexus 6  General] dtblair24:
I might have to try this. That is a very tiny window. Guess it must be a black Friday deal?

This Method Did Not Work

I recently purchased a Straight Talk GS3 and tried this method as a means to eventually root the phone. I followed all instructions exactly as written and everything installed through Heimdall great, but it will not root using Cydia Impactor or SRS Root.

I still get the "signature bugs unavailable" error in Cydia Impactor as before.

What could be the problem?

New S3 Exploit

Tyemall,

Thank you SO much for your detailed instructions. I have a Straight Talk Galaxy S3 with an August date (H2). I'm not new to rooting and Jailbreaking as I've done it many times. I followed your wonderfully detailed instructions and checked it three times and pressed START. Shortly after it began I received a failure notice siting improper protocol. Do you or anyone have an idea what could have gone wrong? Thankfully my phone wasn't effected by the failure so I'm anxious to try it again.

Thanks a million!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
You might have gotten a bad download. Compare the md5 sum of your downloaded file to the md5 sum of the file where you downloaded it from, if they don't match exactly then your download is bad. If so then download the file again.

Its much, much easier to use Odin 3.09 in windows instead of hiemdall. Just put the stock tar in the PDA or AP slot in Odin(older versions of Odin have the PDA slot, newer versions have the AP slot but they are the same thing). When you put your phone in download mode and connect to your PC you should have a blue or yellow comm box in Odin and it should say added in the box, when you have the tar in the PDA or AP slot hit start in Odin and wait for it to flash and then your phone will reboot then you can root.

Also verify that you have the USB drivers for Samsung phones installed correctly, sometimes they have to be uninstalled then reinstalled before they work. Try a different USB port, make sure you are using the stock USB cord that came with your phone, make sure USB debugging is turned on in developer settings on your phone, make sure you don't have firewalls or antivirus programs on or running in the background. These are all things that can cause issues when flashing.

Galaxy S3 SCH-S968C

Thanks very much for your kind reply. I'll certainly check everything as you instructed and then try again. I'll let you know how it goes as we really do need to get the phone rooted in order to open up the hotspot. My wife and I are retired and travel with our trailer quite a bit and my phone has always been my source of Internet. I have a Wilson "Sleek" 3G-4G amplifier that works wonders for amplifying weak signals into strong ones.

Galaxy 3 SCH-S968C - In search of root after August 2014

Thanks for asking. We've been out of town for the past many days but will be back on Monday when I'll try again. I don't have everything I need on the laptop. I'll for sure get back to you after I try again, hopefully on Monday evening. I sure do wish there was a one click solution like I had on my other Androids. No problem though...I don't mind doing it the long way around...just a little worried I'll miss a step and brick it. My mind isn't as sharp as it used to be. ;)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
If you had the h1 you could do it through one clicks from the device itself without needing a PC, but the darn updated kernel in the h2 prevents that, I think that's why they did it. Once you successfully get flashed to h1 you can do it all through apps, root, install recovery and download and install ROMs.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
If you'd rather not wait all you gotta do is stop at a restaurant somewhere that has WiFi and download Odin and the drivers, unless you don't have windows on the laptop.

Also, I remember seeing in the thread that this hiemdall method was first discovered and posted in at Android Area 51(it didn't start here but the first post in this thread seems to be an exact copy of the first post in the thread this method was ever posted in over at AA51) that you needed two different drivers for this method to work, one to get your PIT file and another that let's you flash the firmware, I don't know if this is your issue but I thought I'd mention it.

As you can see it almost immediately released the device. I waited for 1/2 hour to see if anything would happen and nothing did so I closed everything down and disconnected. The 2nd time I tried this evening I had my wife of 42 years checking and double checking every step. Before pressing "Start" I triple checked everything, held my breath and this is the log this time:

I went and checked the thread that this method was initially posted in at AA51 to see if I could get the drivers for you but he doesn't say what they are or how to get them. I'll give you the link to the first post of that thread that the guy that created this method initially made for this method, he has since then updated the OP with a better guide through the method. Here it is, read through it and see if it helps, if not use windows and odin if you can, its super easy that way, if you are forced togo that route if windows is available to you then I can point you in the direction of what you need for that method.

There is also the PDAnet+/foxfi option, it works without root and let's you tether but I don't know what you need on PC if you're running Linux, as far as I know its only for windows on PC. I think there is Odin you can run in wine though if your on a linux/Ubuntu distro, you could try flashing the .tar that way I believe.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OldBob65+:
Thanks very much for the info and the link. Some really good discussion on androidarea51.com. I'm using Windows 8.1 on all of my systems. I wonder if the USB driver isn't compatible with this version of Windows. Anyway...I think I'll give Odin a try after I do more research on it and I understand what I'm doing. I really appreciate the help. BTW...I tried PDAnet+/foxfi without success. If I could get THAT to work I wouldn't need to root the phone.
