[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] patrioticparadox:
Not as far as I can tell. It seems to me that given the way pixels are arranged in our devices you should always use an even number rather than an odd number but even the difference there would probably be very difficult to notice and is purely speculative.

One thing worth noting is that you should always make a NANDroid before changing your lcd_density as you can wind up causing FCs on your launcher or other critical components of your OS such as the keyguard and it can be very difficult to recover from that within the OS itself.

So then you end up going back to TW rather than another option?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Coderedpl:
How are you guys changing DPI?

just simply editing the build prop or some xposed module from what I'm seeing?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] SiNJiN76:
Changing the Build.prop for the whole system, then using an xposed module called App Settings to change individual apps back to original DPI.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] dc/dc:
Yep. I've tried Now, Aviate, APUS, Z and a few others, and I just can't enjoy them. My favourite launcher is Sense, but obviously I can't have that on a Sammy. LOL
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] SiNJiN76:
Any idea which app needs to be put back to 640 so that the PREVIEW PIC when sending an mms shows correctly? Sending the file is fine...it's just the preview screen. The pic is off to the right a bit with a black space on the left side of the PREVIEW. Gallery app has already been changed back to 640...but the PREVIEW screen still has this misalignment.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Idan73:
560 mostly, some apps differ. Contacts and camera and of course lockscreen, back to 640.

Lock is tricky to put back to 640 properly, it has to be done in conjuction with android system app, for it to take.

Note 4 ?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] CB620:
See below.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] CB620:
Overall 440. Nova Launcher.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] SiNJiN76:
Anyone know which app needs to be default DPI for the incoming call pop-up window? I've tried sec.phone and popupui...something.

Also the photo preview screen after you snap a pic for an attachment.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] JOSE89178:
450 is pretty good and supports all apps natively it seems on CM 12. Pretty happy with my set up :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Alcor10:
I used to use 515 but now I'm at 500. LOVE the amount of text on the screen, it's amazing! XD
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Marty_Since87:
What's the lowest you can set the dpi to? On my Note 2, my dpi is 220.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] _-..zKiLLA..-_:
That's insane. I don't see why the note 4 wouldn't be able to do that aswell
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Marty_Since87:
I know, lol. I just hate everything being so close.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] dawheat:
You can't compare dpis across devices with different resolutions. The Note 2 had a 720p screen with a stock dpi of 320. The Note 3 had a 1080p screen with a stock dpi of 480. The Note 4 has a 1440p screen with a stock dpi of 640. These two values + physical size determine the size of every object. Generally Google/Samsung have tried to make the same amount of content fit on a screen regardless of screen resolution.

So if you run 220 on a Note 2, it's closest to 440 on a Note 4 - which is definitely on the lower side.

Samsung really needs to take a note from the Nexus 6 and have the stock dpi of the Note 5 be the equivalent of 560 like the Nexus 6.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Marty_Since87:
I know I can't compare the two, I just know I'm the note 2 that the lowest you can set your dpi to is 220.i just wanted to know the lowest dpi I can set to the Note 4. Thanks for informing me.

480 feels right for everything
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Zoneofdragons:
i really like the stock density :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] YrrchSebor:
I also like stock density, I think it's perfect. The Note is the best phablet I'd say, in terms of layout and density and formatting everything perfectly to then screen size.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] nautica2450:
How does this apply to Lollipop? I see most of the posts in here were from kitkat bases. Or is it simply a matter of individual edits to build prop since we don't have anything like App Settings? God I'm missing xposed.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] decalex:
Same question here. Super missing xposed and per app dpi settings. I haven't messed with or done any research on modding the build prop on lollipop yet, but I have seen people talking about multidpi apps
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] diamantericos:
I chose 300 because it's the lowest I can go for multi window to work.and I use Nova also I used to have my old phones on 110 to 120 the lowest.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] kendonsh:
320 for me ?

[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JEFFSGTP:
Just curious...I used app extractor, sent it to Google drive and installed it...shows up in side loader app (chainfires) and shows quite a few more apps than the limited playstore access the nexus player has built in. Haven't checked to see if it shows led our more apps than the web version does. Yet, was just excited it even worked

[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frigidazzi:
Yeah I did this. Make sure you backup your original play store first. I thought it wood install side by side the other play store just like the YouTube app does. Now I'm trying to figure out how to get the normal android tv play store back. Anyone have a titanium backup of it I could try? So far side loading the apk into the system/app folder gets it to show up, but when I launch it out just goes back to home screen.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eyan2011:
Hey,

I have the One M8 and i was thinking about the M9 mainly for the battery.

I bought my One M8 about 7 months back and I've have been having the worst battery life. I get about less than 3 hours of OST (ON Screen Time) it won't go beyond that and I loose about 40~50% of battery in 5 or 6 hrs of standby time. Hell, this one day I charged my phone to it's maximum by 2pm and after listening to music for about 6 hours. I lost about 70% battery with 40min SOT with no call or texting.

Clearly something is wrong here. But... I don't know, maybe it's the LTE network or I was a Note 3 user before I got the M8. Maybe the 2days battery life spoilt me because according to Gsam

-battery life is 1d 1.8h (6h 23m active)

-screen On: 1h 46m (1h 44m MAX)

PS: I'm sorry I couldn't post any posts any screenshots. My phone is 100% charged as of now.

I tried everything from going to stock to custom ROM to different kernels. Turning OFF Google services (Google Now and location reporting), turning OFF mobile data, disabling sync, no GPS, brightness set to 20%, killing media server, greenify system apps and even maintaining the wakelocks using Amplify battery extender and even reading a lot of post on XDA to save battery. I still loose a lot of power.

Is this what 2600mAh has to offer.

Will the new 2,840mAh with 810 processor be any different.

Or should I just send my M8 for repair and hope I don't end with up a refurbished phone because I've had a lot of bad experience with a refurbished phones. I don't wanna do that mistake again.

Or should I get the Nexus 6 and get this over with.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Without screenshots, can't really help.

But you can battery issues on any device. The M8 has excellent battery life... If you stop any issues.

Read posts 1 to 4 in the battery help thread in my signature for help and you can read post 4 carefully and post the recommended screen shots there too. ?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Oh, sending it for repair isn't the answer. It's software related surely. And like I said, an M9 or a N6 can have issues just easily.

Learn how to setup for battery life and troubleshoot issues is the answer. ?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crabtreebrandon29:
Do you guys think we might get a port from the S6 to the Note 4 once we get our beloved lollipop Kernel? I love the new software improve and the lack of clutter, but the design and lack of other features (cough sd card, removable battery) really kills it. I've tried some of the leaked apps out on my Note 4 on the CM Nightlies but the only one that works is the Smart Remote. But seriously you think we might get a port in the future? :o :D :) :good:

I think so once the kernel is released for lollipop for the n4

[LG Optimus L90] archangel151997:
So this is more of a project between me and a friend, but we are unsure of what to do next. Our experience is minimal, as this is his first android phone (LG L90 D415) and I only installed BlissPop on my G3 because bootloader is unlocked and that made it much easier. In our current state, we are on the 10c version, after having downgraded. We have rooted with Towelroot, installed SuperSu, updated binaries, and installed busybox. However, we are unsure of what to do next. We know we have to unlocked the bootloader and flash the TWRP recovery before installing the ROM and GAPPS, but the steps to accomplish that are not very clear. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and if explanations could be thourough for two noobs, that would be great :D

Dear All

Many apologies if I've posted in the wrong place, or don't supply all the information needed, but I a complete novice :D

My Daughter's unrooted/stock Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is stuck in a boot loop and I am trying to help. She didn't do anything to cause the loop, the phone just stopped working. As far as I am aware USB debugging mode is OFF.

She isn't worried about the phone so much, but has a lot of photos of her Daughter on the phone that she wishes to save. I have a little knowledge, and have Googled the problem and read many pages. There seems to be conflicting advice and many of the pages assume I am an advanced programmer :)

I can boot the phone into recovery mode. I've wiped the cache, but can't get out of the boot loop. I know I can factory reset and that will probably fix the phone, but we want the photos!

I ran Odin, but it can't see the phone - and I'm not sure it would help anyway.

I know little about ADB, but I have run "ADB devices" and it return the phone. I read somewhere that I could run "ADB backup - all", however that just flashes a list of ADB switches but doesn't appear to do anything.

Any suggestions gratefully received!! And if you could bear in mind I have very little expertise that would help :)

Many thanks

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] divya1114:
Hello,

I live in India and I purchased t-mobile s5 online and it already came unlocked and rooted. It was a bad esn set. I don't know how the previous owner unlocked it, but it was just 1 week old. So my guess is, he didn't asked T-Mobile for unlock code, but rather used some online services. Also, I'm unable to update my s5 via OTA and Kies method. While trying to update via OTA method, the following error message pops up:

"The operating system on your device has been modified in an unauthorized way. Try downloading software updates using Samsung Kies on your PC, or visit a customer service center."

And while trying to update it via Kies, it simply fails with a error message.

So my question is, while upgrading my s5 (to android 5.0) via Odin method, will I loose my sim unlock? Will it revert back to being region locked and I would have to purchase an unlock code?

Thank you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] gspears:
It does not update via OTA because it's rooted. If he used the network unlock code then is should be safe to upgrade via Odin. If it's properly network unlocked it's very hard to lock it again. Rooting and flashing will not affect that.

Also, you can unroot (search the thread on rooting to see how to unroot) the phone and then it should successfully update via OTA.

Plus, if you have the contact info from the original owner you might be able to get him to send you the unlock codes. That way you would have them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] divya1114:
Oh! I see. Thanks for the info, but I'm not sure how he unlocked it.

I'm no longer in contact with him. I sent him couple of messages inquiring about the same about a month ago, but he hasn't replied me since.

I tried unrooting the phone, but it had no effects. I was getting the same error message.

BTW, I used "Kingo Android root" software to unroot it. But since it didn't worked, I rooted it again using the same software.

Hi all!!

I had a Z3 as an upgrade from my carrier, but in the short time I owned it (4 weeks tops), some idiot in the Gym dropped weights on it and near as damn it snapped it in half!

Sadly I had no idea till I got home and checked my bag, so couldn't collar the idiot!

So iv had to claim on my insurance, but they don't stock Z3's.

This means they have given me cash to buy myself one, which is fine with me haha

BUT, when I'm looking online for a new Z3, in getting 2 different codes for them, D6603 and D6653.

Is their any difference?

If so, which should I go for!

Cheers for your help

[Xperia Z3 General] shusha87:
The differences are their network capabilities:

Datasheet:

D6603

UMTS HSPA+ 850 (Band V), 900 (Band VIII), 1700 (Band IV), 1900 (Band II), 2100 (Band I) MHz

GSM GPRS/EDGE 850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz

LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 13, 17, 20)

D6653

UMTS HSPA+ 850 (Band V), 900 (Band VIII), 1900 (Band II), 2100 (Band I) MHz

GSM GPRS/EDGE 850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz

TD-LTE (Band 40)

FD-LTE (Bands 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 28)

So you habe to look which frequenzies you need to use.
[Xperia Z3 General] Awestrike:
Were in in your shoes, I would just get the same one I had before, to make sure it's compatible with your carrier's frequencies. You can just check your box to see which one it was.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] littleemp:
Hey guys,

Last time I used a kernel with D2W was around mid 2014 and the drain was pretty severe (4-6%/hr?), I'm wondering if it has improved since then. And if it has, what do you recommend in order to use it and getting the most out of a single battery charge?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ben36:
How could it? It's hardware related isn't it?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darth:
It will always be hard on an N5's battery. Even with the timeout options. (which don't make it as useful anyway)

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] littleemp:
Figured as much, but I thought it was worth asking just in case there was a miracle on the works.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Primokorn:
You will still have a higher consumption with D2W but I do think that things have been improved. Give a try to ElementalX kernel and its Wake Gestures app. Maybe 2-3%/hr now.

This remains a hardware related matter.

This doesn't sit flush with the port though even though the design makes it kind of look like it does. It sticks out about a centimeter or so. It would be super hard to get out of the vehicle if it sat flush.
