[Xperia Z3 Compact General] 2mal16:
Jeah it is very unlikely that L will get root since it has already been obtained and the bounty is fulfilled. So there is no real motivation to keep working on it for this device. And also like Clouds5 said you will probably get your hands on rooted stock lollipop sooner here than through the official OTA update. Or 1-2 days later. Enjoy it :).
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] armchairbear:
Root now or regret it later.

I'd recommend you root now. The ability to get OTA updates is not a big deal at all. If you root, you can still install stock roms which would be just like the OTA roms. Sometimes the unofficial stock roms come out sooner than the OTAs, if not, then very shortly after. I actually like SONY's stock rom. I'm rooted, and I plan to just use the stock rom with some root enabled modifications.

I'd say that most custom roms are just as good or better than official stock roms from OTA.

With my last phone, I regretted not rooting when I had the chance. Sure, I was okay with it overall, but I wished I had root so I could have my phone exactly the way I wanted. There were some really useful functions that I missed from having a rooted phone, like screen-off music player controls. I missed being able to tether without the carrier knowing.

Some companies are making it harder and harder to root, so I say root now while you can.

If you root now, you're in control. If you wait for OTA, who knows.

This might be silly; but I'm looking for a wallpaper I used to have on my smartphone; not sure where it came from; either it was from MCS or it was a icon pack I had (which I don't remember it's name); hope anyone can help out (especially if its from a icon pack wallpaper). Here I leave the screenshot; hope this doesn't go against the rules of the forum; or its a wrong place to post thanks

Hi,

I just released Cinch. It integrates fresh daily motivation and tracks your weight, heart rate, steps, and calories. It integrates with Android Wear to capture your heart rate throughout the day, and integrates with Google Fit to track all of your stats. Cinch also uses a few "mind tricks" to keep you motivated. Some of them are obvious, and others are more subtle. They all work together to keep you on track. On top of all of that, it's beautifully designed.

Features

- An innovative weight loss tracker that shows your progress. Instead of just showing you how much further you have to go, Cinch also shows you how far you've come!

- Motivation right when you need it most. Cinch shows you a feed of hand-picked motivators to get you away from temptation and keep you on track.

- An automatic heart rate tracker that works with Android Wear devices to track your heart rate throughout the day and during workout sessions.

- An integrated step tracker that shows your history, and your progress toward your step goals.

- A unique calorie tracker that shows how many calories you've burned and shows you how your steps and exercise impact your calorie burn. The exercise tracker works with any application that reports your workouts to Google Fit, including RunKeeper and Endomondo.

- A beautiful design that makes sticking to your goals a delightful experience!

Give it a try and let me know what you think!

Thanks,

Ryan

Hey, awsome! To things. Are you still going to support heartsync? With updates because it is awsome!

And second a tiny bug in your new app. When you push om check heartrate in the app the circle in the heartsync symbol isn't moving right. But great app!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] cryptyk:
Thanks! I've removed HeartSync from the market. It's been replaced 100% by Cinch.

I think I found the bug on the heart rate icon. Should be in the next version.

HAHA. My bad. I'm all about vibes. I just didn't know if anyone knew there was an M9 forum already.

To be honest, I don't care about the M9 other than the Sense 7. I just got my M8 and haven't even done anything with it. I am still reading around and trying to inform myself before taking the step. Last HTC I had was the evo 3D.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Riff76:
Let the mods decide if this gets moved. I put this in the Sprint section because not everyone goes to the main m8 forums. Also the m9 section that was just created is for the international m9, so again not everyone will be going over there once the Sprint section is created.

I'm disappointed they didn't get rid of the black bar. I also liked the appearance of the M7 a lot more than the M8. The M9 is basically identical to the M8... doesn't seem like a big upgrade to me.

I hate myself for saying this, but I might look at the Galaxy S6... I hate touchwiz compared to sense, but the M9 doesn't seem like a big enough upgrade from the M8. Coupled with the fact that my M8 gets worse signal at my house than any other phone from the same generation on Sprint, I might as well go for a plastic phone that gets better signal. I don't see anything with the M9 that would make the signal situation better.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tommy24:
These leaks could be fake just to throw us off. I'm hoping they got something new, but we'll see in about less than 12 hrs.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] gypsy214:
I just got my M8 a few months ago and after what i'm seeing from the leaks of the M9 I think I would stay with my M8 for another year and see what M10 or Note 5 will be like.... I think the S6 is a joke too with rear glass cover and no SD card
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] OMJ:
assuming these leaks are true....initially I was disappointed but I've had a change of heart...I think the M8 design is near perfect, so it makes sense that HTC would not change it much....the only thing I would change is the wastes space of the HTC bar. Most of the changes are in the inside...hardware, RAM, Camera, software...not to mention, being the new flagship, it will get priority future updates.

That sucks that everyone is already saying that the camera is bad. I might actually switch to the s6 this year.

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tommy24:
I don't know why they didn't upgrade the screen and bump up the battery to 3000 mah!?! It feels like it's an M8 S.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] solver404:
Much praise to HTC for not going with qhd and hurting battery life, exceptional move there. Samsung decided to go with qhd and a paultry 2550mah battery that can't be swapped anymore. Good luck with that Sammy.

Over the past year and a half, I have also owned a LG G2 and G3 and will tell you that the G3's qhd absolutely did not make up for the loss of battery life. I used both for multiple months and the G3 gave up about 20% usage time vs the G2 in my unscientific GSam battery tests. The battery loss was very noticeable in the real world, the difference in visible resolution to my eyes was nominal at most. I kept the G2 and gave it to my son as a "play phone" because of the rock solid battery life and sold the G3 because it was a similar device with less battery life.

Furthermore, I could not take anymore being locked out of my phone without jumping through time consuming irrational hoops. HTC's decision to unlock bootloader for us is still a huge win instigated by this community, and not something I take lightly after playing with the competition. If I never have to run LGFlashTool again, it will be too soon.

I think Sammy and LG are pushing qhd because they manufacture TVs and want people to mistakenly relate qhd to 4k (yes, 4k in large format is truly stunning) and drive consumer tech spending decisions toward their new television panels for their home. Supposition aside, for me- I went directly from a 5.5" qhd by LG to a 5" 1080 by HTC and there wasn't a discernible visual difference. In fact, to my eyes, the color saturation and balance on the M8 is better and I can't see a pixel even wearing my reading glasses.

Come on M9 release date!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] weidnerj:
I will add that even at HD resolution instead of 2K or 4K on a 5" screen is negligible. Now if you talking about a 55" TV, then I would say you probably would see the difference. Believe that HTC thought process is right, don't need any more resolution and more about battery life.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] rank78:
Which is why unless updated software can turn the camera into a step forward I see no reason in getting an M9 that can't take pics/video as well as the M8.

I swore off Samsung after the Instinct and have only bought HTC since (Hero, EVO 3D, EVO 4G, EVO 4G LTE, and currently own M7 and Nexus 9). As long as the S6 can meet or exceed the battery I'm currently getting then I might go to them this time around. The M7 doesn't have a removable battery or SD card so I'm not losing anything, plus wireless charging would be useful as I have one laying around. My mom's S5 takes some pretty nice pics and you can zoom without the noise blowing up like HTC's UP lens. It really pisses me off how HTC can get some things right while other things they just half-ass it. I don't mind so much that the phones are identical, or they went practical by not putting in a screen that draws more power, or there really aren't new features just a spec bump, but if they aren't going to include OIS and improve quality over it's predecessor because they are more concerned with fooling consumers with '20 MP' then maybe I'll come back after they take things seriously.

The Verge is saying HTC has been pushing out daily updates primarily camera related, but that won't fix the shakiness while shooting video.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mswlogo:
Camera on S5 is pretty nice. Hard to believe M9 is worse.

I went M7-M8-S5-M8

To many other things are just horrible on samsung.

A simple thing M9 could of added is wireless charging or waterproofing.

In someways it's nice to not see them throw gimmicks at it.

One cool feature I'd like to see phones have is IR capable camera.

Can't be to far away.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] gypsy214:
Hey we can't talk about the camera if the fat lady hasn't sang yet...

M9 is not out yet. I'm sure HTC will fix most of the camera quality with software updates.

This isn't some budget phone it's sort of a mid tier phone lots of potential. It's also called the AT&T Tribute or Fusion 3. Please help.

i tried to go back to stock using Odin, using this tutorial http://xdaforums.com/note-4-tmobile/development/guide-odin-to-stock-unrooted-firmware-t2957156 and in the middle of Odin doing its thing it failed.

now im stuck at "Firmware upgrade encountered an Issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again."

so i downloaded Kies, and my phone isnt recognized.

what can i do so that i can at least get the phone working again?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johntuck77:
Several options - first why did you not flash over recovery?

Second boot into recovery and reset.

Third if you can't get into recovery flash a custom recovery such as twrp and flash a new rom.

Hope this helps
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ubber:
the instructions on the first page of the FireKat rom say to "1. Odin Flash Stock ANK4" so flashing via recovery is not a option.

i no longer have a recovery, during the Odin flash back to stock it failed and deleted my recovery. only thing i could boot into is DL mode.

i ended up having the wrong verison of Kies, had to use a older version. the phone was recognized and i "unbricked" the phone.

Stops shouting for a Lolli.

THIS MODULE PREVENTS LOLLIPOP FROM USING UPCASE EVERYWHERE, LIKE NOTIFICATION ACTIONS, DIALOGS AND BUTTONS. I DON'T LIKE IT AND THINK IT WAS A BAD DECISION.

Additional it is also annoying to have a 7" display, but the dialog buttons are shrinked now. Most time there is just a JA, NO, OK or GO - and you have to hit it. I'm not a monster, but my fingers are larger than of a 10 year old child.

So this module also uses for these buttons the whole width of the dialogs, like it was previously. You could set the position for a the text of 1 button dialogs to center or default position by open the module. Initial its random so you could check what's more suitable for you.

Only compatible with AOSP Lollipop!
