Pure version is not "only for ATT" it is SIM unlocked and will work on any GSM network.

edit: To confuse matters even more, the Verizon edition is also SIM unlocked and will work on any GSM network, and will get data at least on HSPA+ and maybe LTE depending on the carrier's frequencies. The major difference is that the Verizon edition has a locked bootloader and comes preinstalled with Verizon bloatware.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a1exus:
So, if I go net10 it's pure but also with CDMA radio.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borxnx:
Not necessarily. To get the Pure Edition you must buy the "Pure Edition". Any carrier branding may yield your bootloader unlockable. US Cellular is BL unlockable, but I doubt you'd be able to get it to work on any other carrier.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nimper:
If you bought using the Net10 option on motomaker then it is essentially a "pure edition" with a Net10 SIM but I don't know what that means for the bootloader and your warranty.

If you bought the Verizon edition then it is a Verizon edition and will have a Verizon logo and come with Verizon apps installed (and the bootloader will not be unlockable without voiding warranty)

If you want to keep your bootloader locked you can downgrade to 314, install root and recovery and upgrade to 167 using recovery

I am having a problem with picture messaging. When I receive them, they are only about 5 -10 kb and they are VERY tiny. Is there any way to set the phone to download the actual file size of the picture sent?

How I tested: I send a 95 kb picture to myself, and when it got sent back to me, it was only 5kb. However, when I sent the picture to my e-mail address, it received the entire 95 kb file. So I know there was no cap on the file size when i sent it, but why am i getting it back in a tiny 5kb? Any help would be most appreciated!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Ok, I'm going to update and bump this back up to see if there are any other reports. I'm also getting tiny pictures on all WM6 MMS messages I receive. I don't do a lot of MMS stuff, but my daughter sent me a 640x480 image and it came in as a thumbnail 160x120 size which is frustrating. I can send out images in full size from WM6, but all images coming into me are scaled.

I've verified that in the MMS settings, Photo Resolution is set to Original size (i've even set it to every other size and it still doesn't matter, all pics received are 160x120).

Is there anyone out there running WM6 that receives full size images? If so, which WM6 rom are you using? What version of Arcsoft is on your phone? I'd like to try to get to the bottom of this.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Just got off the phone with Cingular and HTC. Decided to call Cingular as I saw on another forum (for another type of phone) that if the celluar provider doesn't have the info on your phone then their system will scale pics to small images like 160x120. Cingular of course has no clue about this and claims its an issue with the device so they put me to HTC. HTC checks a few things then puts me back to Cingular...

What I can see is the message I'm sending has a size of 71K and contains a 640x480 image (by doing Info on the objects in the MMS composer of my sent messages). But the downloaded message is only 11K and the objects info shows the downloaded image is 160x120. So this tells me the scaling is happening elsewhere (I even turned off automatic download and I can see the header message I receive telling me that the message size is smaller than what I sent, so its already been scaled).

So is there something on our phones that send info up to the cell tower that tells it what type of phone this is? If so, could it be that WM6 is sending a code that isn't expected by the cell company, so they then scale it to the 160x120 size?

Here's a link to the forum note I found about this similar issue on a different phone. http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=131824 In that thread, it just started working (so they are guessing the cell provider fixed something on their end).

Thoughts? Comments?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] d0ug:
Most likely Cingular has a database of their "Official" phones and what resolutions they support. Their system is probably configured to send the small image to any phone that has no entry in the database. The only way you are probably going to get full size images is for cingular to add your model phone running win mobile 6 to their database of phones. My guess is this will be next to impossible to do so youll have to live with it or switch to a provider that wont limit your MMS picture sizes based on phone. If you can get enough wizard users to complain to Cingular they might do something about it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Yeah, the more I research this, the more I think this is likely the case. Cingular wants to send me a replacement phone (some guy called me back tonight :eek:) said, the guy I spoke to had talked to him aobut my issue, and he was authorizing a replacement for it. I kindly told him I'd have to think about it as I'm not ready to rebuild this phone (little do they know I've done that multiple times in the past few days ;).

Tempted to fall back to AKU3.3 and test it there (I didn't test MMS any). I've started questioning what WM6 is really buying me right now. Its been fun to play with. May have to switch back to see how it feels and then decide whether I stay on WM6 or not.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] djaladin:
This may be your picture size fix.

I'm actually using an 8525 Hermes and not an 8125 Wizard, but I had the exact same problem as you. I think the problem lies somewhere in the setup of the Cingular MMS, GPRS, and Media Net settings. I'm not positive about that, but I do know that (at least for me) my picture downsizing problem went away as soon as I used the Cingular cab file developed by shogunmark, which can be found in this thread.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=299393&page=2

So if any of you are on Cingular/AT&T and having the MMS picture sizing problem, try the cab. It may be just what your Wizard ordered!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Dude! This fixed my problem completely. Just sent and received a couple of 640x480 images with no issues! Thanks a ton for this info, I honestly thought running WM6 was the problem, but it was in how I was setting up my connections... Very very cool ;)

FWIW: I actually went to the first post of the thread (they are keeping that one updated) and used the second cab in that post:

Cingular WAP MediaNet MMS Settingsv2.cab . I also removed the stuff I added so there weren't extra settings.

It is set to send "original size" but that wont affect "receiving". My MMS sends the entire file size, but all pictures received are 160x120 or smaller. Its annoying.

I have T-mobile.

FYI, my mms works fine with WM5. I first thought that maybe T-mobile had a server issue and downsized pix. But then when i went back to Xelecin's custom 2.6 rom, it worked fine. I even tried the standard t-mobile 2.26 rom. I am only getting small pix with WM6

Possible T-Mobile Fix for Tiny Pictures

Hey guys I was looking at this problem with the tiny pictures coming through on the MMS. I didn't have the problem on MBE but I flashed Not Too Smart's ROM and found this problem. One of the possible solutions I came up with was to unlock the Extended Rom using the UNLOCK EXTENDED ROM WIZARD and the running the setup file to restore this to a T-Mobile (branded?) Style phone. It will keep WM6 on there but add on the other features from the T-Mobile WM5 ROM such as OZ instant Messaging, T-Zones, Hot Spot Locator, as well as all the default settings for SMS, MMS, and EDGE.

As soon as I can get someone to send me an MMS, I'll let you know if it worked.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] I7oobie:
But, I'm running the Faria V5.0 Extended Rom already... Does that matter? Also, will I be able to do this fix with Vista, I used a buddies computer to flash the rom...

Just send one to yourself, or PM me and I'll send you an MMS.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] falconeyez:
I don't know. I would assume that Faria's Etended ROM would have over write the T-Mobile extended ROM.

I have the files in a zipped folder, but for some reason I keep getting upload errors. Any help?

Just unzip the file and throw the unzipped folder onto an SD card. When the card is in your device, launch the autorun program. Hopefully it should work. I would probably delete all the previous MMS settings, and GPRS settings that you placed previously.
[Nexus 6  General] sn0warmy:
I figured I'd post this since I couldn't find the solution readily available when I was trying to enable landscape mode in both my homescreen and lockscreen. I use my phone as a navigation unit and stereo interface in my car. I have it mounted horizontally, covering the stock head unit. Because of this, I've been trying to figure out how to make sure the phone goes to full landscape mode whenever it's mounted. Below are the settings I used to successfully do this.

As far as I'm aware, this should work on any ROM available for the Nexus 6, including the stock ROM.

Enable lansdcape mode on your homescreen:

Step 1) Install a launcher other than the Google Now Launcher. I prefer Nova Launcher. Make sure you get the "Prime" version since it has the "Look and feel" sub-section that you'll need to get into.

Step 2) Open Nova Settings

Step 3) Open "Look and feel"

Step 4) Under "Screen Orientation" change the setting to "Auto-rotate"

Enable lansdcape mode on your lockscreen:

*Requires root*

Step 1) Install a file explorer of your choice. I prefer Root Explorer.

Step 2) Open your file manager and scroll down to the "system" folder

Step 3) Tap and hold the "build.prop" file

Step 4) In the options menu that pops up, scroll down to "Open in Text Editor"

Step 5) If a Warning window pops up telling you that the file system is read-only, select "Yes" to change it to read-write

Step 6) Scroll to the bottom of the build.prop file

Step 7) Paste the following in as a new line at the bottom of the file lockscreen.rot_override=true

Step 8) Save the file (In Root Explorer this is done by selecting the 3 dots in the top right and selecting "Save and exit"

Step 9) Exit the file explorer and reboot the phone. Your lockscreen will now auto rotate when the phone is turned.

Great guide, nice and neat with descriptive pictures.

Question: what is the cause of dead batteries? Leaving them to sit at 0% until they are truly dead?
[Nexus 4 General] ttheodorou:
all the battery's have circuits inside for heat undervolt and overvolt protection. if a battery current drop below a certain point the battery circuit shut down the battery altogether. with this method you try to overcharge the battery without blowing the circuits so the battery accumulate enough charge to boot. this method will probably lower the lifespan of the battery but it was a dead battery anyway so...

also there is a probability of blowing the battery that is why you must not leave the battery unattended.
[Nexus 4 General] ImperatorShade:
My Nexus 4's battery drained completely in TWRP recovery and now its not charging or turning on at all. I've tried everything I could. Should I use this technique?
[Nexus 4 General] Archao:
That decision is yours to make, I'll say that it worked for me. I've made the risks clear, I may have overstated them a little bit but only because I don't want to be held liable for any injury. If your battery is hammered past the point of charging through conventional means this will bring it back just make sure to follow the instructions closely.

Edit: If you haven't tried leaving it plugged into the charger for a while, I'd start with that before resorting to this method.

Hi, nice Post!

After applying your method for over 15 minutes, the voltage between (-) and (+) is just 2.6 volts, and after connecting the battery to the phone (and trying to boot) the voltage goes to 0V again.

Any idea what to do?

When I take another 3.7 volt battery (samsung Galaxy S2), the phone boots, but it recognizes that the TH-pin is not connected, so it stops the booting process -.- (TH = Temperature?)

Another questio: why are there two connectors for (-)? it looks like, that they are fused together (if you look to the cable between connector and battery).
[Nexus 4 General] Nairboh:
Hmm my nexus 4 didnt hold a charge either, but I found information which says just holding volume up and down and plugging the USB cable in will allow it to charge again, which fixed my problem O_O
[Nexus 4 General] Andandos:
I used a variable power supply and applied 3.8V (without battery) at pin 1 (+) and pin 4 (-) - without powering the phone, I already had a current draw of 0.35A = 350 mA ... maybe something is wrong, what do you think?

while booting: 0.65A, but again, the phone stops booting after the google logo shows up.

Newbie to watch

Hi:

I just got one of these off of ebay. I came from a TOQ, which I liked a lot. I thought I would try a Android Wear device. So far, I am not that impressed. I have 2 main issues: 1) the battery life sucks. I got maybe 6 hours. This makes the watch almost useless. 2) the "tilt to wake screen" feature is not working., which might be affecting (1). The watch is running wear 5.0.1.

Does anyone have any advice on how to make the battery life better? I have read that the old OS had a longer battery life. Do you recommend rooting the watch and putting an older OS on it?
[LG G Watch] 7eregrine:
Did you factory reset it? 6 hours? That is not right at all.

Check the battery life in the Android Wear app... that should tell you if some rogue app is killing it too.

Some apps you already have on your phone when you pair the watch will install a wear app on your watch without telling you. Like I Heart Radio and Amazon Shopping.
[LG G Watch] hallevison:
Thanks. I found SYU ware manager since I posted this and killed some things. Let's see how it goes today.
[LG G Watch] hallevison:
Well, that really didn't help all that much. I took the watch off the charger around 7am and it would have run out of power at around 4:15 - only ~8hrs. I would like it to do better. I will move this discussion to the Battery Life Discussion.

Thanks.
