[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rtiangha:
It could just be that the battery connector is loose. The method of securing the battery in these devices is weak (essentially sticky tape) and it's easy for the battery to shift such that the connector can get out of alignment. It only takes a little bit to encounter issues and it may look like it's secure when you open up the back, but then you apply a little pressure to the connector with your fingernail and you may find that there's a little give and the connection wasn't as snug as you thought.

Anyways, try disconnecting/reconnecting the battery and see if that changes anything. That's all I've got, unless it's an issue with how you connected the new USB port to the main board (actually, you might want to check the ribbon connector on that too to make sure everything is lined up correctly with the main board; who knows, it might only be partially connected to the main board hence the minimal charging but no data transfer).

Edit: Upon further reflection, a loose battery would have nothing to do with the lack of ability for a PC to recognize the tablet. I would start with looking at the USB port connection to the main board and either checking to see if everything is aligned and/or properly connected, and possibly try reseating it just to be sure.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hummer010:
I seem to be having some random hardware issues with my nexus 5. I've had it for about fourteen months with no problems, but in the last couple of weeks I've started having problems with the camera and the speaker.

About 40% of the time the camera works fine. 50% of the time the camera app fails with a "can't connect to the camera" error. The remaining 10% of the time, the camera app starts, but the image shown on screen is all one color, or it does the normal preview overlayed with bands of flashing colors. If I take a picture when it does the bands of color, the band of color are stored in the picture.

The speaker is about 50/50 as to whether it works or not. When the speaker is not working nothing works. No ringtones. No notifications. No touch sounds. No music. It will cut out and in during play sometimes. The other day when someone called, it finally started ringing in the middle of the ringtone. I once heard a single note in the middle of a notification.

Rebooting sometimes fixes both problems, but it's not a gauraunteed fix. I've tried several different ROMs including both stock Kit Kat and Lollipop, as well as others. The problem persists in all ROMs.

Anyone seem this before? It seems like it almost has to be a hardware issue because it persists their multiple ROMs.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
The camera error is due to something else using the camera HAL (or something using it but then not releasing it properly afterwards). Culprits range from torch applications (which use the camera HAL to trigger a continuous flash) or various social media apps (video calls, instant photo sharing). I don't use anything of the sort, I only use my camera as a camera, and I don't have such issues - whereas the people that get this error almost always use such apps.

Your speaker issue could be a hardware issue if it happens regardless the software. Have you ever dropped your device or given it excessive shock?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hayth:
I had the same camera problem as you, no amount of clean wiping etc helped so I contacted Google and got an RMA, this is bearing in mind that I bought my phone in Nov 13.

I received a "refurbished" phone, but it was actually brand new and now it's working great. :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hummer010:
You were right about the Camera! My problem was the Google Messenger app. I removed it, and went back to the Kit Kat AOSP messenger app, and my camera has worked since.

One problem down, but I am still having the intermittent sound issue. My phone has been dropped and banged around some. Nothing significant that I can think of recently, but that is certainly a possibility. Truthfully, I can live with the sound problem a lot easier than the camera problem.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hummer010:
After a few weeks of no sound and no camera, I've finally solved the problem. I took my phone apart, and cleaned it out with compressed air. I polished up the contact points on all the spring type contacts to the back of the case. I put it back together and everything is working!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donando:
I seem to be having a very similar problem. If I just lightly touch the 'S' of the nexus logo on the back cover, the speaker kicks in. Let go, and it cuts out. But before I open it up, (hate doing this), looking at all the break down pics of the nexus 5, I don't see any contacts related to the speaker? The speaker is apparently a single unit at the bottom of the phone? Can anyone explain the contact points for the speaker as it relates to the back cover especially around the center of the phone?? Thank, much appreciated.
[Android General] chubbtm:
Just bought an arc touch bluetooth LE mouse for my note 12.2 running 4.4.2.

Bluetooth shows the mouse as paired. The indicator LED on the mouse says otherwise.

No cursor shows up and nothing works. Restart mouse and it does not recoonect at all.

Test on PC and Mac, both run perfectly so the curlpit is android itself.

Done some googling and found this bug for chromeos

htps://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=390015

With exactly the same symptoms I assume that android uses the same kernal settings and filters out the mouse.

Appearently, most bluethooth LE mouse uses the same method as the arc touch so LE support is currently doomed.

I am no developers and this should be filed on bug tracker.

But with google's abandoning attitude towards the tracker I assume it is better to bring it up to you awesome guys.

Conclusion: Don't buy bluetooth LE accessories for android (yet).
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] game1811:
Observed this issue with OPO...when i download Google Play Movies in offline mode, i cannot play them for more than 2 secs when i am not connected to Wifi/3G. I can fast forward to any moment in the movie but when i resume play, it works for 2 secs or a little more.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hgneto:
Have a question... What's the main benefict of using a stock based ROM? It will have all stocks apps, and have functional 4k recording and all those problems aosp suffer, or it's just because it's based on the stock ROM?

Like for example what does Cloudy ROM can have, that another ROM that isn't stock based can't.

Thanks in advance,

Hope you understand my question
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
The "gimp" depends on which variant you have. Like the D855 has great aosp ROMs while others are getting issues here and there cause the 5.0 source hasn't been released for them yet.

So if you're one of those other variants, you can expect things like bad (or not as good) camera, sound issues (mainly music), not as good battery life (not major though) and modem/radio connection issues. That being said, some devices aren't getting those issues.

Also, stock is Kitkat while AOSP is on Lollipop. You gotta ask yourself if the extra features you're getting off AOSP are worth the bad things.

P.S.: I personally prefer AOSP but am waiting on source to use it as my daily.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hgneto:
I'm on 855, but I was talking about the stuff that I can do on Stock vs stock based ROM vs aosp ROM. Like 4k recording for example and duo window screen...

I'm on 855, see my previous post to see if you can understand what I'm asking.

Thanks in advance!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00280:
First, a tiny bit for Lollipop defenders. Yes, i always did a full wipe, always installed same apps set up in the same way

manually

. I always updated cust, rpm and tz to relevant versions. And i always gave system 24h to make all needed background syncs.

Official 5.0 is bad, because of:

1) Lags. Animation is still choppy. Applications are slow to launch, etc.

2) Heat. Phone heats up way more than on KK.

3) Battery. SOT is noticeably worse.

Since LL came out not too long ago, all AOSP roms based on it are still in alpha phase. I believe that most issues will be sorted out later.

AOSP LL is bad because of:

1) Lags. There is way less lags than on official LL, but there are sudden and unpredictable slowdowns.

2) Battery. It is worser than official LL, which makes it almost unusable. 4h SOT (in the same conditions in which official LL lasted 6 and KK 8) is bad.

3) Everything proprietary is more or less broken. Worse (Or none at all?..) low light algorithms in camera software, no Qmemo, etc etc etc.

My advice? Stay on KK for now. LL still needs a lot more polishing...
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hgneto:
Not deciding between lolipop or kitkat, just trying to decide either to go stock based ROM or aosp ROM...
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00280:
Then read the last part :) Stay on stock, customs aren't ready yet.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
There are stock based (KK) custom ROMs that do just fine. I would definitely go with stock based atm. AOSP needs polishing.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hgneto:
So basically you are all saying that for AOSP only on Kitkat and for lollipop I should stay on stock based ROM's for now?

Thanks!

Sent from my G3
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
I believe that most if not all AOSP ROMs are on LL.

Idk about D855 LL stock based ROM but KK performs great. Imo, just test them and see which one your prefer.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garethjames:
Hi, hope somebody can help me.

First, I am no expert, so this will have to be help for dummies!

I have flashed lots of phones and unbricked a few following instructions on this site, but this has me beaten. A friend just got into flashing and tried to flash his moto G XT1032 to lollipop, very unsuccessfully. He wanted to do it himself

so I pointed him in the direction of this excellent site. Note his phone could enter fastboot at the time, unlocked (code 3 etc). He downloaded all the stuff, including Oversleeper's tools and...ran them including the bootloader refresher!! There is now no fastboot and the phone is bricked. I have managed to get to the stage where the phone is recognised as Qualcomm MS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM8), but when I try to blank flash, the end line says "Error reading packet" and fails. I have looked all over on XDA for a solution but can't seem to find one. I know there are some absolute wizards on this site, so please somebody help? I can't give up. I don't know the meaning of the word!

Thank you all so much.

Gareth J
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
According to oversleeper's post, it says "The bricker should be used very carefully and only on Android 4.4.4 with 41.13 bootloader. DO NOT use it on higher versions, unless you wanna kill your phone definitively."

Is it possible that the phone has a 41.18 bootloader?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garethjames:
It is possible but I really don't know. I got it in a very sorry state. I suppose there is hope in the fact that it can still be detected and seen as Qualcomm etc. Does there need to be an unpacked firmware in the same folder as the batch file or something? I can't understand the "error reading packet" statement. The only tool that he said he ran was the refresher tool. Goodness knows why, when he had the phone in fastboot mode ready for flashing a ROM.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] motorola.lover1998:
have you used motoflasher???
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garethjames:
I haven't, no. Do you think it will work? Ah I think you need bootloader which this device does not have now. That's why I was trying to use blank flash.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Clivectmob:
I think you are in the same boat as me my friend. If you have attempted, or your friend has attempted to flash lollipop, then your bootloader will now be 41.18, so there is currently no fix. As I understand it, and I may be wrong, the current blankflash will not work to run a singleimage.bin on the 41.18 bootoader and a newer blankflash version is required to get us out of this fix. It's a waiting game currently. I am following the progress of another thread waiting to see when this occurs.

disconnect battery

I had similiar Problem inspite of correct bootloader 41.13. I could indeed blank flash only with disconnected battery.

1) Disconnect battery

2) Start blankflash.bat and quickly! insert usb cable - If you are not quick enough the batch process has finished before connection is established. Just retry!

3) After successful completed blankflash process, reconnect battery

4) Now the smartphone should be in fastboot mode.

5) If fastboot shows "low battery" disconnect and reconnect usb cable.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solidhadriel:
Alright guys, I'm at a loss. I bought a LG G2 off swappa from a guy who has good feedback. Everything checks out...except that the phone's loud speaker isn't working.

I can't use speakerphone, play music out loud, hear my ringtones, etc. The "small" speaker works just fine, and if I plug in head phones, they work too.

So I asked the seller and he claims that everything was working when he had the phone, and he asked me to do a factory reset. Issue is still there.

I thought maybe it was a bad speakerphone (who knows how bounced around these get when being shipped?) So I decided to swap the one from my LG G2 (that has a working speaker phone) with my 'new' LG G2. Well, still no sounds. HOWEVER, my old LG G2 uses the loud speaker from the 'broken' phone just fine. So the hardware must be ok then?

What else could cause the speaker not to work? Anyone know? I needed this phone for a trip and would hate to be without it.

This is my first game I've done, so feedback is appreciated.

Zombie Horde Assault is a top-down shooter where the primary objective is to kill as many zombies as before running out of health. There's no regenerating health and the only way to get health back is from health drops. Each character has five weapons and one unique ability (three playable characters). Each of those can be upgraded during the match using points. Points are earned with each zombie kill and the different zombie types give a different amount of points. Online Leaderboards and Achievements are through Google Play services.
