If you wanna secure your investment then get a otterbox case paired with a tempered glass screen protector which is what I have and I'm just paranoid that way and still careful then you'll be fine.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efanatic:
I ended up getting the tab s t707 on Verizon. I ordered a glass type screen protector and a book style cover for it. Still need to go to the Verizon store and get it activated. So far I'm loving it.

Only down side is one of my hobbies is photography and the pics from my camera look completely different than what's printed. The look exactly like what they print out like on my daughter's note 8 though. So my raw photo editor on this tablet does me no good.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dorqus:
So I just switched from T-Mobile to AT&T and I'm thinking about getting a Galaxy S5. I plan on rooting it, and installing safestrap, but I can't *stand* TouchWiz - are there any ROM's that don't have TouchWiz as the base and are based on something else? It seems a bit confusing - I know that there are no AOSP/CM based ROM's for the S5 (AT&T Version), and yes, I know I can install Nova Launcher or something, but all the ROM's I see seem to just look like TouchWiz but maybe de-bloated. Thanks in advance....
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rakuu:
No, locked bootloader prevents it, touchwiz base only.

I have the code to unlock my phone , but I don't see anywhere to put it. I change the sim to another provider and it boots up just fine without asking for any code. In the simlock menu I have an X next to NETWORK and a number 10 at the end.

How do i go about using this code?

I have a D5306.
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] MortaLPortaL:
Have you tried doing this yet...?

For most Sony phones, You must power the phone on with unaccepted SIM card, wait for a few seconds until the phone screen asks for a network unlock pin code. When you see the message, enter the code obtained from Us.

In other cases, mostly in new models can be used #987654321#.

How You can check codes counter:

1. Turn on the phone whithout sim card

2. Lock screen

3. Press sequence: Menu, Back, Back, Menu, Back, Menu, Menu, Back

4. Select Service info

5. Select SimLock

6. Check where is X

7. If X is on NETWORK and value is different than zero, you can unlock your phone.

8. If it is zero unlock by code is NOT available. The counter is blocked.

1. Turn on the phone whithout sim card

2. Type *#*#7378423#*#*

3. Select Service info

4. Select SimLock

5. Check where is X

6. If X is on NETWORK and value is different than 0, you can unlock your phone.

7. If it is 0 unlock by code is NOT possible.

The counter is blocked.

In new models can be used #987654321#.

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Clarke33:
I'm trying to consolidate info from 2 or 3 posts into one. Hopefully someone who knows more about this than me can correct me if I'm wrong. Are these the correct steps to take?

1) activate stock rom slot (14.3.1.0)

2) download all files needed to es file explorer ( Twrp, 3.2.4 update, 2.0.2 rom, gapps, towelroot )

3) flash Twrp with flashify

4) from Twrp wipe factory reset

5) from Twrp flash 3.2.4 update

6) Install towelroot apk using es file explorer (or Twrp?)

7) boot back into Twrp (power and volume +), then wipe

8) from Twrp flash 2.0.2 rom and gapps

9) uninstall safestrap

Will this work or is there an easier method?

My concern stems from the Build Number being DONGCHOU.V1 being that Dongchou is a city in China, the various CSC codes being CHN, the model reporting as GT-i9500 but the Product Code reporting as SGH-I337ZRACHN.

I've been unable to get root on this phone nor can I load a recovery.

Does anyone recognize the DONGCHOU.V1 build number? Or give me a pointer to how I can root and/or flash a custom recovery?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
This appears to be exactly what it seems: a 9500 with AT&T firmware. And whenever I see people saying they purchased one of these off ebay I tell them to return the phone and purchase off Swappa instead. You may have a lot of work ahead of you to get this working, and even if you do you still have to deal with AT&T's encrypted bootloader in customizing the device.

Note that the 9500 is not available in the US, and thus NO 9500 should ever have AT&T firmware.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ed65:
So if it's a 9500 with AT&T firmware, then it either wasn't made by Samsung or it was modified after manufacture. (If I put my tinfoil hat on, I could come up with all kinds of nasty scenarios.) Either way, it's going to be difficult or impossible to do anything with it.

Thanks for your help.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Modified after manufacture more likely. Posts regarding these phones have been coming up with some frequency over the last two months, and in each case the phone turned out to be an AT&T S4 with modified or otherwise incorrect firmware. Yours may be the first where the device is correct but the firmware wrong, but I wouldn't bother cracking open the phone to find out.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Whatever model appears on the download mode screen is the model of S4, regardless of what the sticker may say. In this case, an AT&T Frankenphone (SGH-I337).
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LukasAndrade:
for me is false, i9500 uses Exynos , not Qualcomm Snapdragon 600
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
I missed that about the CPU when the post was made back in January, and thus the OP's device is just like all the other Frankenphones.Even so, my advice to return the phone applies regardless.
[Samsung Gear Fit] JoeSharp:
I thought of something that could be built using the free calendar app or possibly the timer, and I think it would have some value. I'd like to see an app that would watch the Gear Fit pedometer and send an alert if it hadn't moved a set amount forward in a user-set time period. For example, if the pedometer was at 2000 steps at 10AM and this app recorded that, and the user had set an interval of one hour in the app for the notification and 200 steps for the increment they wanted to achieve, then at 11AM the app would check the old pedometer reading against the new pedometer reading to see if it had advanced more or less than the preset increment - then the app would create an alarm event if the pedometer was lower than the target, and not create an alarm if the pedometer was over the target value. The alarms would stay on the calendar, and would be snoozed or answered as they are today. A second feature would make the app do this at the user-determined intervals between two set times, say 8AM and 8PM on each day - otherwise it would bother users at night.

Do you think this would be possible? useful?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smapdi:
So I picked up a Digital2 963G tablet for relatively cheap to use as a video player for my son on long car trips (http://www.d2pad.info/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=276&Itemid=567).

It works decently for a KitKat tablet with a dual core processor and 1GB of RAM. The only real issue I've had with it is that audio comes sped up when playing the YouTube app through Bluetooth. When you turn Bluetooth off, the audio sounds fine and syncs with the video. I've seen audio lag while using the Youtube app and Bluetooth with my OnePlus One but never had it play the audio at double speed.

Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated.

As an aside, does anyone know who the OEM is for this Digital2 tablet? I doubt Digital2 is selling an original designed tablet so I assume they're just re-selling someone else' design with their own branding. I'm asking because I doubt this tablet will ever get Lollipop but I am curious if anyone is aware of efforts to port it to this hardware.
