[Sharp Aquos Crystal] MrTriTanium:
I have seen posts in other threads about the update and I feel that a post about the update in any of those threads would detract from that threads purpose. So I made one instead.

I 'm on Boost and the update itself is just under 25MB, and per the Apps list it appears that half of that went to the new Contacts app based on size (not sure if download was compressed or not). It took roughly 10 minutes to completely install and it slowed waaaaayyy down when it reached 70+% on "Phase 1." "Phase 2" was fairly quick. I couldn't get a picture of the screen but it is a plain black background with only white text denoting information and progress. "Phase 1" would slowly blink on and off during that installation cycle. I was on battery and it ate roughly 5-6% during the process.

Bloat: it's hardly there. All I noticed was the addition of adding your Yahoo account credentials to work with the new Contacts app (I'm assuming), and after removing it it does not appear in the Add an Account menu. The new Contacts and Data Collection Tool app (the two are most likely associated) cannot be removed, but can be disabled. Also, there are some new wallpapers, being "Magic Smoke" and "Music Visualization." I don't know what they look like since I have no need for them and disabled them too. There may be other additions that I have not caught. I really wish we have root to get rid of the Connections Optimizer. It re-enables itself after the update and is more aggressive in wanting to be used.

Battery life: I have seen an improvement in SOT with Data/Wi-Fi, but still have drainage while the phone is not in use/asleep. I have uninstalled my Battery app (Battery Solo Widget Pro) and disabled the Battery notification in Power Toggles (never set it to poll to begin with) to see if they could have been the culprit. For context I actively use Greenify and set it for all apps I don't need to be constantly running, and turn Data/Wi-Fi/etc . off when I am done using that feature and have location set to Battery Saving.

I don't know how many of youz guys have installed the update, but I'd be happy to help with any questions I can answer.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] ivanthec:
Battery settings detail is now showing up when it would force close previously. I'm going to assume they also may have fixed the WIFI cert issue some people where having.

I save most of the logcats logs if anyone wants to have a peak at those. OTA updates were provided via Redbend.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] cbsites:
Won't update with a low battery

I just when to try the update to see if there is a resolution to the Wifi 802.1xEAP certificates bug and it downloaded very quickly. However, when I clicked OK to install, it came back and said the Battery was too low and to install later. Even with the phone plugged into the USB port! (Yes the battery was down to about 1/4). Fortunately it looks like it kept the download.

The only concern I have with this upgrade is the google security update. I'm just wondering if I'll be closing a hole needed to root this phone.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] MrTriTanium:
Good thing Sharp fixed the Battery detail bug. I can confirm that Sharp has not fixed the cert issue. jh2015 posted in the thread about the issue that Sharp told him/her that it will not be fixed.

Did anyone actually captured the OTA URL and the update zip file?

Tapatalked
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] ivanthec:
Can't say I'm well versed in Android but when capturing the logcat file the only file name I could find after the download was

f_SG306SH_S8216toSG306SH_SA300.shdiff

the only two URLs I could find were

http://0946f61c52f05cb871ea-d87d123...47.r71.cf3.rackcdn.com/2640182142_dpD/APP_JNI

Could not access /cache/ or /fota/ after the download since there is not root access. I personally was unable to find or rewrite the download to a different location due to permissions.

The new smart contacts and phone app is very Lollipop. I wonder if this is an indication that the Aquos Crystal will get an 5.0 update, maybe no time soon, but in the future.

[Sharp Aquos Crystal] ObviousChris:
I updated it the day it came out and I don't use the new bloatware added haven't used it. If you haven't noticed when you take a picture the shutter noise was always on or something like that. With the update the shutter noise can be turned off now, glad they fixed it.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] baii:
Eh, great one, the shutter sound was pretty loud.

Edit: where you find the option?

[Sharp Aquos Crystal] 4tyfour:
I don't think there's an actual on/off option but if your phone is on vibrate or silent then you shouldn't hear the shutter sound.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbeltre:
Good afternoon to everyone

I have the following situation. I bought a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S5 (SM-G900V) which, in theory, this is factory unlocked. I have normal network operator, depending on the location have 3G or H + ... the situation is that although I can use the phone normally, in the notification bar always have a notice that says "Could not activate the phone - SIM card it is of unknown origin "

My operator is Orange Dominicana.

Hello all,

My Qtek 2020 (Himalaya PH10B) fell on the floor with the headphones on, and the mini-jack for connector for the headphones broke inside it.

I successfully opened it, and I was able to see the damages. I can see only 6 pins that connected the mini-jack plug to the main board, and it seems that there could be a seventh that got broken...

Would anyone of you know of a closeup picture of this headset plug/connector ? Do you know if it is possible to find a new one ? If not, mine looks reparable still, but I would feel reassured if I knew the exact connection here :)

Thank you in advance for your help.

Cheers

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] StratBoy61:
Thank you for your answer Rudegar,

I re-soldered the connector, and I realized that a pin was indeed missing. I actually found it freely moving inside the PDA, but I could not solder it back to the connector. The results ? Well, it still does not work, unfortunately... With the headset on, it is mainly okay (there is still a little contact problem) but *withou* the headset, it still has no sound...

So :

1) Can I find this connector somewhere ?

2) Is there a way to tell the PDA not to check for the headset, and use the main speaker all the time ?

3) Would it change anything if I bought a blutooth headset ?

Thank you in advance !

Cheers

Thomas
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Rudegar:
1.) i doubt it would be a cheap option if htc had a special connector made just for their phones so i'd asume they use some sort of std component

and maybe there even is a partNr og serial on the connector

which could be used to find a replacement in R&S catalog

http://www.rs-components.com/index.html

2.) no pretty sure the switch between headset and internal speaker is don in hardware and software cant control it

3.) no with bluetooth headset you just dont use the audio connector which mean it would be empty and you'd have no sound on the pda

but it would prob solve poor contact issue of your current headset
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] StratBoy61:
Thank you Rudegar !

I am going to re-open it and check if I can find any serial # on the component. It looks like it is my best option. Obviously, if I find something, I will post it on that forum, so that other people can know...

Thanks again !

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] haZethew0rld:
This is the weirdest thing ever, I recently upgraded to Lollipop from 4.4.4, and even though there are the lollipop elements like the new notification area, drop down menu, and lockscreen, for some reason, I still have the kit kat app drawer, and menus. I tried flashing it again, then just going with a RUU.zip from grafixnyc and I'm still in the same situation. What can I do to fix this?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
There is nothing to fix here, its how it is supposed to be. If you want your app drawer to look the same as a nexus device running lollipop then install Google now launcher.

hi all

please guide me which processor is best and why ?

8-Core MTK 6592 1.7GHz processor vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 MSM8928, Quad-core 1.6GHz
[General Questions and Answers] Chandu245:
Performance depends on the chipset.

Some phones even with the world's best chipset perform worstly.

Im using a MTK chipset and it works flawlessly for my device.I have not tried a Qualcomm chipset.

But both are best interms of their specs.

Overall performance depends on the entire device design itself.:good:
[Samsung Gear VR] oshogg:
For those lucky enough to have Gear VR (I am still waiting for it to be shipped) - is it possible to play a full 2-hour 2D or 3D movie at 60fps without phone running too hot that it starts running at <60fps? How about battery lasting for full 2-hour 2D/3D movie watching assuming one starts with 100%?

Thanks,

Osho
[Samsung Gear VR] boodies:
Saw a video review of movie watching on the Gear VR. Im not 100% but I think he watched a full 2 hour movie and still had like 40% left. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct...=J9S1-sPFzrYuiYKR_9geqA&bvm=bv.81456516,d.cGU
[Samsung Gear VR] Powerslash:
You can watch a 2D movie for around 3,5-4 hours with 60fps without heat problems till the battery runs out. Not sure about 3D movies. The resolution of the screen in the Oculus Cinema is max 720p, so a 1080p movie is just burning unnecessary battery life but works fine aswell. If you watch a movie in the Void Cinema the battery life is even longer.

Cool.. thanks for the info.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] javelinanddart:
Was that sarcastic or real?

Also, NP, I just wanted to make one to add some features and touches to faux's like more i/o scheds, frandom support, and I'm working on getting it up to Linux 3.4.105

my username is javelinanddart because my first phone was a peice-of-**** samsung dart, and a javelin is a huge dart (basically) and I liked it so it stuck.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] javelinanddart:
Hey guys! 2 New builds up in my AFH

Build 2-add s2w,s2s,and dt2w

Build 3-remove interactive governor and replace it with elementalx + s2w,s2s,and dt2w

blu_active is being buggy as hell for me so I'm going to leave it for right now

I might readd interactive and make elementalx a module but we'll see

Neat features tho, keep up the awesome work!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] javelinanddart:
Would you mind trying with stock rom if you get the time?

Thats really weird. So faux kernel works but not a faux-based kernel. All I added was S2W,S2S,DT2W and some i/o scheds and a governor. That shouldn't make it not work. I did compile with a newer toolchain but that shouldn't break it either.

Thats how I flash it every time but result is same. I understand that this doesnt make any sense at all, but thats the way it is :(. Just wanna help.

None of em booting :/
[Nexus 5 Android Development] javelinanddart:
Then stick with faux's

Anyone else?

Please let me know

Does anyone have any feature requests (other than blu_active governor, its being stupid)?

Or does anyone have this working?

It gets kinda weird when the only person responding is a person who can't get it to boot up.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] pandza88:
Man I am wondering same thing... Is there anyone who have this working at all :D. Becouse even on SimpleAOSP ROM I have bootloop as well ^^

You could maybe add -O3 optimization
