Check your bootloader with Samsung info app from play store. See what bootloader you have, you may have a mismatch bootloader from first flash.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] traffas:
I have grandfathered unlimited data and pay monthly for the ability to tether, so I'm not doing anything out of line here nor am I interested in rooting or trying unofficial apps. I just want it to work as designed.

I bought my Nexus 6 from Motorola in November and ever since have had problems staying connected to my hotspot. It seems stable when I connect with my other Nexus devices, but I can't keep a computer connected for more than a few seconds before the network just disappears. It reappears a few seconds later, but never maintains a connection long enough to do a speed test, much less get any work done. Has anyone experienced this? Any troubleshooting suggestions?

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Accessories] Starslayer:
I recently picked up the Turbo in Blue from Best Buy (Edged up, and they gave me a $100 gift card for activating it!) and this is too beautiful to go with a case so I'm going naked (except for a glass screen protector)

In my car, I already had this Mountek CD Magnet Mount http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HMDYH2U/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It was OK but it didn't always hold well over bumps and sometimes it did come out of the CD slot if I wasn't vigilant. It didn't help that I had the HTC One Max which is a beast of a phone.

In the store, the Turbo did stick to the Mountek magnet (I had to disable the smart cover software) but when I hooked it up in my car it slid down slowly (this is without using the metal pads) - I could have attached a metal pad to it but it would have ruined the look of my sexy phone so I decided to go back to a mechanical mounting solution.

I ordered the iBolt xProdock holder (instead of the system I went with the bare holder for $15) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KAJOSZO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I was able to pop of the magnet from the Mountek unit, and use the existing 17mm ball for the iBolt to effectively mount it in my CD Slot. I have only driven with it one day but I'm pretty happy with the end result - the iBolt holder has clips on the back to route the USB wire through, and there is an app for the iBolt Car "experience" which I wasn't thrilled with (and besides, the Turbo does everything I need with just the sound of my voice). If the CD Slot still fails over time like it did with my prior setup I may move the Mountek mount to one of the grooves in my car, or even better, I may end up getting a Proclip setup and putting an AMPS 17mm ball joint on that. Time will tell.

I'll post some pics of the setup later when I get back out to my car.

Hello Reefuge,

Thank you very much for the radio firmware file! I flashed it and my radio phone worked again.

[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qi.liu.dy:
Hi reefuge,

this didn't help in my case.

My phone is XT1068 retaildsds running on Android M. It has SIM card detecting issues for couple of weeks already. Normally I restarted the phone and got radio back, but since yesterday multiple reboots / reinserting (replacing) SIM card doesn't work any more.

I tried reflash my modem using 4 lines of code you mentioned with the current firmware from here. But it didn't help.

Although I strongly suspect this is hardware issue, I want to try other software side solutions if you can provide any.

Thanks.

[Nokia Lumia 1020] Incubated:
My 4s is crapping out slowly, and i found a brand new lumia 1020 for $250 on kijiji, brand new, in yellow! kinda tempted to get it cuz of the nice camera and windows 10 around the corner, as well as denim just released, but it is 2015, and the 1020 wasn't a powerhouse to begin with. what do you guys think? save the $250 and wait, or will the phone still be viable for some time? as you can tell, i'm on a budget. would have gone for the oneplus one, but with the canadian dollar + shipping it will likely be $500+ delivered.

anyway, thanks for the advice.
[Nokia Lumia 1020] raghu13uk:
Just for camera?

The question is "Are you going for this phone just for camera?". If you answer is "yes" then, go ahead. This is the simply the best camera out there. At this budget, superb.

But, if you considering moving from Android to Windows Phone, that is a big adventure. Mainly because of the App store and other features of the WP, which Android user may not like.

I advise you to check the Windows Phone OS first (may be borrow phone from a friend) before actually buying.

Note: I am using this phone just for its camera.
[Nokia Lumia 1020] mikendawn:
I have been using the Nokia Lumia 1020 for about 6 months. It has been doing very well for me, and I bought it for two reasons. One, I missed Windows OS. I used to use a HTC Wizard, then a Tytn and finally the Kaiser. They were fantastic, and the Kaiser I used straight for a good 5 years. In fact, that phone I still have and it works just fine, however the battery is showing its age and the front bezel has cracked and fallen off in places.

The second reason is that my Samsung Galaxy SII LTE was an absolute piece of garbage. I used it for almost 2 1/ years and it was problematic pretty much from the get-go. I had battery issues (replaced the battery)... then there were the constant freezes, crashes, app drops and more. It was absolutely terrible! I had more issues with Android than any other phone I have used..

I've used a lot of phones, but my Windows OS phones have been the best ones I have ever used! I got hooked with the old Motorola VX220... and moved on from there..

Glad to be back to Windows OS and I don't see myself ever going back.

The 1020 I bought both for the camera (I love it) and for the phone itself. It has proven to be more than reliable, it has proven to be an absolute wonderful phone!

Granted it sucks not having expandable storage space, but hey, that 4s you have isn't either!

I'd say grab one, they are excellent phones and will treat you well...! Just make sure you get a case for it as the phone can feel a bit slippery without one..

what did you use to root it?

you may have a different recovery to me but on my box it has an option to "fix root" in recovery.

to boot into recovery, just hold the recovery button on the bottom of the box while powering on, then the is an option to start or boot system, select that and youll hopefully get a screen saying start or start and fix root

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaedenRuiner:
Well,

I just upgraded from the S3 to the S5, and on the whole I do respect the Samsung Galaxy line of products. As for Google's Android, that one is ever growing on my crap list. (like changing the security of 3rd party apps' access to external SD Card. That's like Windows only allowing word to save to a USB stick in a specific folder.)

That being said, don't know if this is just a "Shutup and deal with it situation" but I recently noticed that the Phone Dialer and Contacts background are glaring White. Now I know they used to be black based background color on all the versions of Android on the S3 (even upto 4.4.2) but this S5 is running 4.4.4 and suddenly I am at a loss for finding a way to change this color spectrum.

Is there a way, regular or by rooting, that I can alter, or at very least invert, the color spectrum of the default Dialer and Contacts apps?

Thanks

It does look nice and similar to the PDAir one (which I have but need to replace). Unfortunately it doesn't have a belt clip.

I actually just bought this one:

http://www.thepocketsolution.com/PSI-9274.html

I actually prefer the book style, but thought I'd try this.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] Shawner:
:( I guess I should have read it more carefully.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] mfrazzz:
Well I just got this today (VERY fast shipping!) and I'm going to send the case back. After having a PDAir case this one from PocketSolutions feels super cheap (its not real leather, its stiff as a board, and the flip style adds another inch in length to the phone). On top of that, the way it holds the phone does not feel very secure. With the PDAir I had no problem holding the phone in precarious positions as it won't come out of the case (unless the plastic flap over the keyboard was to completely break since its secured on both sides). With this case the plastic flap is just to protect the keys when its open (as it basicaly just lays across the keypad and the little extra tucks just under the phone when the keypad is open). When the phone keypad is closed it does hold the phone (but just on one side). I'm not comfortable with that design...

So I'll look at doing a return and switching it with the PDAir case and will probably stay with the book style like I have now. Very nice case, just thought I'd try something else (and cheaper) but not worth it (IMO).

1. Is it advised to gain root NOW prior to the forthcoming Sony Lollipop OTA?

Point being if I don't root and I update to the latest forthcoming lollipop ROM from Sony then will it become a difficulty to gain root via the current downgrade method of rooting.. Or will downgrading from Sony's lollipop ROM be easily achieved via flashing .93 from flastool for instance.

My idea being can I remain unrooted and update via forthcoming ota from Sony and still achieve root via the current root methods of downgrading.

2. If I gain root now though, and lose ota facility because of root then will i be able to flash the latest official Sony lollipop ROM via flashtool manually and still retain root?

Sorry for any repetition above it's crazy late here. I've been itching to root but have been holding off in anticipation of an imminent Sony lollipop release... After some thought on the questions I post above I'm trying to determine if it's best to root now to prevent a potentially unrootable Sony lollipop rom?

Thanks in advance
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] clouds5:
1. Will downgrade from lollipop be possible? I have seen both happing with other devices so could go either way. No guarantees because we just don't know yet.

2. There is no downside to rooting now. Once you're rooted you don't want to install any official OTA anyway. You could lose root or even damage the device (we don't know yet). What you want to do is flash Pre - rooted firmware which you can download in the forums here :) (usually you get updates sooner than through OTA this way)

It's like a whole new world once you familiarised yourself with the possibilities.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] 2mal16:
Root is recommended you don't have any downside. If you want the ota update so bad you can still decide to flash your current software again. Though this I would not recommend since there is a possibility that you will be stuck in lollipop like clouds5 said (if no downgrade possible) .I don't think this will be happening since Sony until now is not really restricting users to flash official firmware. Hell they even encourage bootloader unlock officially. That said, just root and the enjoy the countless advantages.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] PantsDownJedi:
As another alternative, and only because it hasn't been pointed out, you could also try to simply remain confused. The challenge in this is in hopefully coming to a point of peace with your circumstance by no longer worrying about it. I've been awake for far too long and have been sleep deprived over the past days, thus having no business making posts like this and accepting ir as innapropriate, but the general philosophy expressed remains solid ?

Since i don't have it in my signature, don't forget to hit "Thanks" ?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] dillalade:
Lol@pants

I will proceed to root now to prevent an unrootable Sony lollipop OTA ROM - which is incredibly likely given chanfires views on the difficulties of rooting lollipop "specifically devices with locked bootlaoders."

Given we would all like to retain our DRM keys for when reverting to stock based ROMs I think I've come to my conclusion.

Thanks for your thoughts, it has certainly helped to proceed with rooting now (with I've been itching to do) rather than wait patiently for Sony's lollipop OTA (which could become a hindrance, now that I've fully understood the 'potential' for an unrootable lollipop ROM.)
