Splash Screen

About how long is it on the splash screen during the first boot?
[Sprint LG G3] kljohnson05:
Id say a good 3-5 minutes but it runs very well other than the long boot time.
[Sprint LG G3] Taco9869:
Bricked my phone

Okay thanks.

Does anyone know specifically if there is a ROM that works with LG G3 from Sprint?

I, being the noob I am, flashed this Kernel as a boot image last night and have been trying to fix it all night.

I just finished around 3 hours ago.
[Sprint LG G3] Spaniard85:
There are both AOSP options and stock options for you to flash. However, this kernel is for AOSP Lollipop based ROMs ONLY.
[Sprint LG G3] whojabacod:
CAF kernel...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] HWYA72:
Hello everyone,

I don't know if I even put this in the correct place but if I didn't please forgive me I am new here. I have a Verizon Note 2 (sch-i605) that has no APN information anywhere, not even a place for it. The baseband is VRUEMJ9 and it's also been rooted and build prop editor was also installed. There is also NO option for GSM which is weird because I have used it with ATT in the past and I know they are "unlocked" already you should just need to add the apn. Hopefully someone can help me as I am at my wits end.

Thanks

[/QUOTE]

Thanks what I'm looking for is how is it in real life. Does it hold on to 4G compared to other phones. I want to buy one as soon as I can get my hands on one I'm on Version I have missed Google Play and Motorola I think they only sold about 10 phones lol. I'm in a tuff signal area if the radios are not good the phone is useless to me. Thanks.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheAmazingDave:
Again, IRL it's really fast. I get LTE coverage just about everywhere, but when I'm on HSPA it responds just as quick. I stream a lot of music with Google Play since it doesn't count against my data with T-Mo, and I have it set for highest quality on mobile network, and songs play back to back with no buffering. Browsing the web is just as seamless in my experiences so far.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wooddale:
Thanks maybe I'll be able to snag one on Google or Moto tomorrow Wed is supposed the magic day.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skier8735:
I've been running on Verizon for about 3 weeks now, with my old phone (RAZR maxx HD) I was always dropping to 3g at work, since switching I think it has only dropped to 3g once at work.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wooddale:
Thanks that's what I'm looking for are you holding on to 4G any better?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skier8735:
Yes it is very good at holding 4g for me and I don't get the battery drain I used to get at work.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wooddale:
Your probably getting a better signal that's why your battery was better. I can get stuck here in a bad 3G area and it will suck the battery right out the phone always searching for signal even with my Droid Maxx whose radios are pretty darn good.
[HTC One S] edge540T:
Hi, I have a watermark saing HTC CONFIDENTIAL and some numbers below after back to ship rom RUU_Ville_U_HTC_Europe_1.09.401.1, first release I have found.

What this means? How can I remove it?

My config, is Unlock bootloader, s-off, and not rooted of course, cos I am on first ship rom.

PD: By the way, I'm flashing this rom to see if I can get 3g back to my phone, By the moment I can see G,3G,E,H on my top Bar, I need to test a bit more but looks promising

[Motorola Droid RAZR] SmileAsTheyDie:
I recently installed LS 4.0 on my Razr Maxx and noticed on my break at work i was at around 35% battery, then 2 hours later when i got off work i was at 3%, in that time i didnt have any apps open so the drain dosent make any sense. I took a screenshot of the battery graph for reference: http://i.imgur.com/MyUDnNT.png

As you can see on the graph it randomly drops off there and then goes down at a pretty brisk pace. I wasent using the phone from 6pm to 8pm, right around the time it dropped all that battery.

Could this be due to my battery just dieing out or is it possibly a issue with the rom?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] taufiqs:
Please describe more information like:

1. was your network set in 3G? LS battery isn't really good with 3G

2. what number of app you are using? social media apps that always updating their data i.e google+, fb, etc --> would increase data usage when they synchronize.

3. please check whether your razr went to deep sleep.

Solution:

1. Set to 2G always and go to 3G if you want faster speed (download the 2g/3g toggle widget for L)

2. Uninstall those app if you're not using it or limit their synchronize routine by the app itself or using profile in Tasker (advanced method)

3. you should installed wakelock monitor app from Play Store

If battery drain were persist when you have done those troubleshoot and solution, you should try to calibrate your battery (leave it shutdown automatically after reaching low level and then charge it until 100%, go + 1 hour to make sure, go to recovery to check the % and then boot to your system and calibrate using calibration app from the Play Store).

Last one, if calibrate doesnt work, then the battery might be already dropped.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] vishnu vijay:
Also do check that location services etc are set to power save mode.

Use an app to check wakelock and disable that annoying app.

or may be you are right... lets hope not for your own wellness!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mickeyasamoah:
I also remember having that problem when I was on cm12. After my battery dropping insanely low, it kept long before the little juice left in it run out.

So i thinks its something with the 5.0 ROMs
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Beeker:
Even though my 8125 was running just fine on a Molski ROM I got months ago, I had to go fiddle with it and see what kind of damage I could do. Now, I have myself stuck at IPL 1.01, SPL 2.26, GSM 01.12.10 and can't seem to find a way to get my IPL back to the 2.xx range. Since there are no longer any ROMs posted here, I am afraid to try some of the ones I am finding elsewhere since I don't know if I will turn my Wizard into a paper weight.

Does anyone know what ROM would be the best to use to give me a newer NBF so I can just put the current factory ROM on? I had read that the MrClean_RUU_WIZARD_224a_AKU23_WWE would be the right one, but I can't find it anywhere now.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] nottoosmart:
Run the T-mobile 2.26 rom which you should be able to get from tmobiles site. that will get you to ipl and spl 2.26
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Beeker:
Appreciate the thought, but the T-Mobile site requests that I enter my phone number, which is not a T-mobile number, but a Cingular number.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Zzan:
Then grab the rom from Cingular's site. I believe it will get you to IPL/SPL 2.25.

Any AKU2 carrier rom will help you (assuming you are CID unlocked since you previously had Molski's rom installed) In any case if you are a cingular customer and got your phone through them normally even if it is CID locked it is locked to Cingular and you can flash their rom.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Beeker:
That's the whole base of the problem here, as I said in the first post my IPL is only 1.01, so trying to install the Cingular ROM gives me the infamous "Please get a newer NBF file" error. I've tried everything I can to take care of the problem, but the needed ROMs to work back up to where I need to be are all gone.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] mfrazzz:
Wizard Love and the Button ROMs are both available on PirateBay. Use the Button to do a CID Unlock again, or use Wizard Love to try to just recover.

As for the T-Mobile site, if you use the link in the sticky for how to CID Unlock by Dr. P, that one does not ask for a phone number. Takes you directly to the place where you do the download (I just downloaded it again yesterday and can email it to you if you need it (PM me with your email)).
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Zzan:
Sorry, I didn't get out of your first post that you had tried the offical Cingular ROM just that you wanted to end up on it. Read through the G3 unlocking sticky. The button 1.05 rom should do the trick. I think the link in there is working though it may be a slow download. I no longer have any wizard roms on my system or I would host it so you could grab it real quick.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] mfrazzz:
I haven't done this before (so take it for what its worth) but you could pull the Cingular RUU file apart with WinRAR, and get the nk.nbf file out of it and run that with a Rom Update Utility NOID (that comes with most of the custom ROMs) and that should allow you to flash it no matter what the IPL/SPL are at as I understand it. (so you shouldn't get the need newer message).
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Beeker:
Okay, download the button ROM and the T-Mobile ROM now as well as printing out the unlocking guide. I know I've done this before, but it was a long time ago.

Thanks for the help guys!!!

---EDIT---

You know what, just reading the ENTIRE FRIGGEN INSTRUCTIONS solved the problem. One little line towards the end of Doc's instructions ... "A last note. If you DO ever go back to the 1.05 ROM for any reason you need to repeat the lokiwiz steps as you won't be able to install a 2.x IPL/SPL bootloader."

That's it, one little line on the last page that I just skimmed over and that's all it was in the end.

Will it happen?

The 4K output works great with the samsung MHL 3.0 adapter. Truly impressed reviewing some of the 4K I've recorded with it at native res.

Which begs the question... Will Netflix android be updated to do 1440p & 2160p? If so the Note 4 could be a great little Netflix 4K streamer in a pinch!

Sadly, the changelog for this firmware is missing all over internet, but there is definitly some APN / Carrier update and it contains some minor bugsfixes.

The device System UI also seems to be a bit smoother.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mangbhoy:
Recently, my father passed away and in my rage I slammed my phone into the ground like a transformed Dr. Bruce Banner would.

Miraculously, it survived . . . for a couple of days. Of course the LCD was banged up but it was only on the top corner and can still read about 95% of the screen.

Now it doesn't power on. I brought it to a repair guy that I know and trust and he found out that the board was bent and that the power went on and off.

Well, I care about the stuff I have inside my phone - especially the photos of my father.

I really wish that I was holding a water bottle instead when I was in a fit.

*sigh*

Anyway, I've not read any concrete solution to my issue - probably because of the disastrous issue with the phone.

So, I would like to ask for some help and ideas to get back my files and data.

Is it even possible to transfer the flash memory of the phone onto a working one? Like, if I buy a used and working Xperia Z and have the flash memory replaced with the one with my files?

Take a look around and read a little bit but I'm pretty sure it's been mentioned a few times that once you upgrade to stock 4.4.2 there is no such thing as rooting or unlocking your bootloader anymore. They've locked it down. Google the specific version that you have.

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] palmbeach05:
Yes. You will forever have that device running whatever it is you have. NEVER take new OTAs until you read up on them and learn the effects of what the update does. Some updates are good to go and will allow you to unlock and root. Others, which it looks like in your case, will not allow you to unlock and root.

Best bet, find a broken device on ebay or amazon that is still able to be unlocked, buy it, and have it shipped to you. Also purchase any tools needed to open your device and a T5 screwdriver. Do a motherboard swap and then follow any guides on here to get the unlockable OTA to your device.

Good luck with this issue, we'll be here to help where/when we can.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThiagoMaia:
Hello, I have a Moto X second generation XT1097 (from Brazil). And I received the update to lollipop recently. For a few days it was ok, but then it started draining battery like crazy. I used to get at least 16 hours with 4h30 of screen time, and now I am barely getting to 10, with less then 3 hours sot. The other people with this version of the phone here in Brazil didn't get this problem (according to motorola forum owners). My phone is not rooted, and I don't want to root it, because I heard I will lose the warranty. I downloaded Gsam battery monitor to try and find out what's the problem, and apparently the biggest drainners are kernel and android OS (16% and 10% respectively). I've searched a lot of people with similar problems on the internet and tried to factory reset it, (and reset it from the recovery too, if that makes any difference. Even without installing the apps it drains very quickly). I also tried updating the play store app manually, as apparently that has helped some people. Still nothing. I'm keeping the wifi off right now, and GSAM indicates the battery decrease rate got to 0, but got to -10%/hour again after some time. Can someone please help me? I've read something about static and dynamic IP, that might cause this, how can I solve that? And if I solve it, that menas that it will only work for my home wifi? Because my university's wifi doesn't give me any better battery either. I'm almost about to return it to the manufacturer, someone please help.

I bought the Moto X Pure Edition last night and they offered insurance for $85. I have had two Samsung devices that I used it for. GPS died on my S5 and speaker died on my S4. Has anyone purchased the insurance for theMoto or feel like they should have?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
Absolutely I did. I have it on my 2013 Moto X as well. With how cheap the phone is, the extra $85 is a no brainer. $35 deductible and you're covered no matter what happens to your phone short of loss or theft.

I just order a moto x 2014 but I didn't order the extended warranty because I want to think about it some more during the next 30 days. Right now I don't think it is a good deal.

It cost $125 ($85 now, and another $40 if you use it to make a claim).

First, the cost seems way out of line. It is close to 1/3 the cost of the phone (I used the cyber Monday coupon for a 32gb, but if you buy only the 16gb on the coupon, the insurance would be more than 1/3 the cost of the phone.) So I'm paying $125 to insure $410 for months 13 through 24 (the phone already has a 1 year warranty). A year from now, the phone could be replaced with a comparable used phone for less than 2/3 's the original; cost, so at best I'm paying $125 to insure a value of $280 or less. That doesn't make economic sense unless you are Motorola.

Second, although the accident coverage starts with day one, it only cover's "accidents" but excludes "negligence." Does that mean if you drop your phone it is your negligence and not covered? The way the contract is written it appears that it only covers damage cause by the negligence of a third party. It doesn't cover any damage caused by intentional or reckless behavior of anyone. So if your friend negligently bumps you causing you to drop the phone and cracking the screen you are covered. If you drop your phone in the toilet it is your negligence and you are not covered. If your friend takes your phone in a fit of rage and throws it against the wall cracking the screen it is not covered because that would be intentional. The contract requires that you submit a detailed description of how the damage occurred. If you don't hire a lawyer to help you write that description, it will be easy for the insurer to deny coverage. Trying to explain how your friend accidently bumped you while you were holding your phone while standing over the toilet isn't going to sound very credible.

Third, it doesn't cover the battery. Batteries are specifically excluded. The one-year standard warranty covers batteries only if they fail to recharge to at least 80%. That means after one year, if your battery dies or only recharges to 81%, you have a paper weight (one side of which is rounded so it can only be used face down as a paper weight.)

The fact that carriers might charge more for similar insurance doesn't make the Motorola extended warranty any better, it just means the carriers' extended warranties are even less economically viable.

Given all that, it seems to me more economical to save the $125 and use it toward purchase of a new phone if the need arises.

30 days from your purchase date or date received?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sailindawg:
Regarding the value of Motocare, before purchasing my Moto X PE 2014, I purchased a 2013 developer edition for $229 on eBay. Never having used the phone, I wanted to see what the moto love was all about.

I had the DE phone two weeks, dropped it, smashed the screen. Motocare covers for a two year period against accidental damage such as breaking a screen. You can break your screen three times.

Put in a claim, paid $39 for essentially expedited shipping. They sent me new 2013 DE in 4 days. Cross shipped as well.

How the heck can you do better than that? For $85?! For 2 years coverage. You will not find better.
