I started this post - seems like lots of people see it the same way I do. I couldn't agree more with the comment re MS trying to put its hand in every pie. It IS so intrusive, workarounds are all well and good but I don't want to spend an hour of my bank holiday weekend going through my MSN contact list deleting contacts (I have too many other fun geeky things to do) haha.

I also agree that the voice clip function was cool, shame I'm not going to be using it!

Whichever idiot in the marketing department at M$ thought of this synching nonsense will hopefully be transferred to the M$ dungeon to work on something else for a while and M$ will reconsider.

Can I run linux on my Hermes ? :-)

I don't know if someone experienced the following.

I signed in to windows live then to messenger, and all the msn contact were showing in my phonebook contacts. but when I signed out, all the messenger contacts disappeared from the phone contacts.

I tried it many times and it is always the same.

Regards
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] FatherFluffyBottom:
I did this to get it manageable:

Went to hotmail.com and then contacts. I deleted nearly all of my non-messenger contacts. I did this because I use Outlook as my exclusive contacts store. Note, do not delete your messenger contacts, as they disappear from your contact list

Then I went through my contacts list (a long process) and for each one, found or created a corresponding Outlook contact and put their messenger email address in as email 2 and the Instant Messenger address

I then hard reset my Hermes :(

Synchronised back with Outlook first

Configured Live Messenger and selected to synchronise and merge my contacts

99% of them now integarted perfectly. About 2 from around 100 didn't work properly. Not 100% sure why, although the email address appears to be case-sensitive.

This is a really dumb feature though. I tried removing the contacts from my contacts list before and lost a load of MSN Messenger contacts. Dumb!

Hope the above works for you guys too. I've not found a way of doing this and syncing them up again without a hard reset :confused: ...

Why can't Microsoft just add an option that does something like this:

Tap and hold Windows Live contact

Select "Merge with Outlook Contact..."

Select Outlook contact

Merge

Would that be SO DAMNED HARD?????????

so the only thing i did was to erase windows live messenger from my hermes..

i am using msn messenger and is quite nice...

Hi,

I did have the same problem. Where you can find the MSN messenger?

Thanks

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] :
When I'm signed in on Messenger, and I scroll down my Outlook contacts, I get an error, where it keeps "Refreshing" my contacts and taking me to the first one at the top.

Anyone experiencing this and/or has a work around? This still happens after about six flashes.

Hello bingobob and wm6 owners. - I AGREE!!

I flashed to WM6 the other day and happy with speed improvement and less bugs but

this sucks!!

I now have 4 contacts for every one! The sim card is displayed in contacts (in WM5 could copy to/from)

I have all my hotmails contacts and messenger users!

With WM6, you can't delete multiple contacts like you can in WM5

In a mess and will take hours and hours to sort out. :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] TheOracle:
Opps just made a seperate thread on this issue, it's SO annoying :mad: . I have many more MSN contacts then I do phone contacts and I don't want them integrated!! It must be possible to patch or hack this somehow..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] DIE_HARD:
Wish I would have seen this last night before I deleted almost all my WLM contacts because i removed them from my "Contacts" list on my phone. :(

I thought I figured it out when i was able to de-select sync contacts but with that de-selected the 1st thing it pops up when you try to log in is that it's going to sync your contacts. :( :(

I am going to continue to try to find a solution but I am with the rest of you who don't want a bunch of extra contacts in your contact list and like to keep it clean!

For those looking for the old MSN Messenger install I hope this works for you. I have had it for quite some time and used it on older PPC's but never a WM phone so let me know.

EDIT: I just tried installing this and it didn't give any errors but I can't find the original MSN Messenger anywhere on my phone so it looks like it is just an update or something. Sorry! I tried!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] speckledpig:
I dunno, IM is a must, but I think windows live is responsible for the two hard resets I've had to do since I installed Schap's 3.30c. Both times were when I was trying to activate it; I have since removed it from my today screen and only use it sparingly.

However, I would like to have a client "always on" in the background; perhaps there is another piece of software (just waiting to be released!) that will save us.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FF666:
I have a problem with Wifi. I believe it is only at my work, not at home. It will not do anything anymore. However, wifi is still draining battery. I have to reboot the device to make it work again. Airplane mode does not fix it.

I see the following screens:

Orange line around WiFi off symbol

WiFi connecting... Never happens, it is stuck.

I have stock rom. Unlocked bootloader, root, xposed installed and Franco kernel.

This also happened without xposed and with stock kernel (I switched kernel trying to resolve it)

Also tried the app FXR WiFi fix Did not help.

WiFi settings: always on in sleep, frequency band: 2.4GHz, WiFi optimization = on (also tried off, does not help), region code: Europe.

Before I try a factory reset, is there anyone who has some suggestions?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maskelisuvari:
The same thing happened to me,i had nonandroid backup,then i flashed color os,wifi worked again, i restored the cm11s backup,now wifi keeps working.Give it a try :)
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FF666:
Hi Thank you for your reply.

Do you mean I should make a nandroid backup, flash another rom (for example Color OS) and than restore backup? Wouldn't a factory reset work as well than?

Thanks for the help.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maskelisuvari:
You are welcome. İ think its better to get nonaandroid backup first then you can try the factory reset,if it does not help you can try flashing color os
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FF666:
Could you please clarify? With nonandroid you mean NANdroid? So make a backup of the existing (stock) os and than factory reset? Sorry, I'm a bit confused...
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maskelisuvari:
Yes i mean nandroid backup,then factory reset,if it does not work,try to flash color os.Thats it :)

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sbcontt:
Previously I had made a post about hard bricking the Xperia Z. I have recovered the phone using testmode, but that required opening the back. I live in India, and rounded or parts4repair are asking for quite a lot in terms of shipping cost with tracking. I had purchased a local back cover, but the 2nd mic cover is cloth, the area on top of camera is somehow moving, and the glue is not sticking. Not to mdntion it has no NFC antenna. I have the original back, but need some method of sticking it in a waterproof way with possibility of reopening it in future if necessary. Sony service center said they don't have the glue. What am I supposed to do? Throw the phone away?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nameless One:
you need to source a reasonably priced one of these:

http://www.parts4repair.com/back-cover-adhesive-for-sony-xperia-z-l36h/

I'd buy two or three just in case as they are no good for re-use in my experience.

In addition to making sure that the surfaces are really clean with nothing greasy to ruin the effectiveness of the glue, you need to ensure good pressure around the edges of the back plate directly over where the adhesive is. The Xperia Z repair manual states a pressure of 600 Newtons (adjusted to 490 Newtons if you were to use a press like the one Sony do, to take into account the press itself) for 10 seconds, 600 N is equivalent to about 61 Kilograms-force. Make sure you are not applying the pressure to the fibreglass frame which sits slightly higher than the back plate.

[LG G Pro 2] msmhw:
Hi LG G Pro 2 lovers,

I made this thread to talk about the g pro 2 and shearing experience. until now this phone is the best phone I every had. its really great. I was using note 2 before I moved to LG and now I dont even think to go back to galaxy.

what I love about this phone especially after lollipop update, the battery life. YES! the battery life is amazing. it last for almost 2-3 days without charge!

here is my battery graph (I can see me as a normal usage)

http://dl-1.va.us.xda-developers.co....png?key=zhucYdexS7Iq56nb9O0fAQ&ts=1425369367

(see the attachments)

also I love what LG did with the keyboard, especially adjusting the height.

http://dl-1.va.us.xda-developers.co....png?key=ukgEqsiZ7GcGkUlyLfGwCQ&ts=1425369379

(see the attachments)

there are some problem here and there which I wish they will be fix in the next update ( maybe next year lool)
[LG G Pro 2] Franco203:
How many hours of screen on time can you make on your GP2? I'm asking because when I installed the lollipop update on my D838 the battery lasted noticeably less than KitKat, so I had to downgrade. I hope LG fixes this battery drain with the next update.
[LG G Pro 2] msmhw:
Between 5-6 hours usually.
[LG G Pro 2] Franco203:
What model do you have F350 or D838?
[LG G Pro 2] msmhw:
I have the D838
[LG G Pro 2] Franco203:
Well, I guess I'm going to give lollipop a second try, but I hardly passed the 4-4,30 hours of screen on time on the 20c firmware. I love the new LG UI and how the phone is more snappy with 5.0, but I wish it lasted as much as 4.4
[LG G Pro 2] msmhw:
try to do hard restore before updating or even after updating. I updated it using LG program , have a look here

http://xdaforums.com/lg-g-pro-2/general/access-recovery-mode-to-to-stock-rom-t3036772

as I was having problem due to the root. And because I don't use the root a lot, I decided I don't want it any more. So my phone is clean of everything even the apps I installed them again. Also I want to point out there are some apps for some reasons they use a lot of battery even if they are closed. one of the apps I remember is NumberBook. when I was in KitKat the battery didn't last a day and when I tried to find the problem it came out its from the couple of apps NumberBook and another app. so I removed them and everything good.
[LG G Pro 2] Franco203:
Thanks for your advice, I just flashed 20c again and I will stick with it. I love this amazing phone!!

[LG G Pro 2] pavapizza:
hey guys, i got d838, i live in Indonesia, just updated to 5.0.1 build number 20a. any of you feel that the phone somehow uses more RAM? btw i updated by using lg pc suite and restore failed update, since i cannot OTA because im rooted. and certain themes werent working well unless i deleted them from system first then installing again as normal APK.
[LG G Pro 2] enkhtwshn:
yes it is. ART did its job. I get 1gb used memory after clearing all apps from background and restarting it. still 1.5gb of usable is more than enough
[LG G Pro 2] pavapizza:
ah, so its not just me. i thought it was a botched update for me, since the pc suite i downloaded was for g3 (cannot find our model in their web).

btw what do you think of 20a update? i think its a hit and miss, the plug & pop are gone, lg life log are gone, we did not get the smart notice. the battery life seems a bit better though.
[LG G Pro 2] enkhtwshn:
I m on 20b dont know about 20a. SP800 does its jobin battery department

As there doesn't seem to be a PA 5.1 Build thread and zero official builds around since the 02/02 I thought I would start up my old build machine and TRY to do daily builds of PA 5.1.1 for everyone.

IMPORTANT

I am not responsible if your phone blows up or turns into a gremlin after midnight.

If there are NO changes to gerrit there will be no updates to the OP

For anyone coming from 5.0.x to 5.1.x please refer to the thread below for bootloader etc.

Please read before asking any questions.

Any issues do a FACTORY RESET and CLEAN INSTALL

Not knocking your efforts but PA updates things like once a week, what's the point of daily builds?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] pornogeroc:
if u read topic u can see that say paranoid is not update rom from 02/02
[Nexus 6 Android Development] the_rooter:
thats not necessarily true. I had a few devices when the updates only came every other month. It really depends on the maintainers and the developers for said devices.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] akellar:
I'm referring to github not how often they push builds. For example, there has been very little activity since the middle of February. Building daily is going to result in the exact same rom 4 or 5 days a week.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] daleski75:
If you took the time to read the OP I stated "If there are NO changes to gerrit I will update this thread accordingly."

This means if there are no changes I won't be doing any builds and will state this on the OP so people know.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] gamewarden234:
PA is gonna die a slow death I think because most of the brain trust is gone to the other OS.. At least the other one will probably get the best features. They are getting ready to release the first version of there operating system on the one plus and all this is really is a mildly improved version of aosp without any paranoid features. Kind of sad for all their rabid PA or die followers. Finaly get a phone that runs PA and development grinds to a halt.

---------- Post added at 08:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:50 PM ----------

I see what your saying. Since the PA creative team left the building PA development has grinded to a halt.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Circaflex:
says who? you? they have already answered this, the 6 members going to ONE+ is no different than them having jobs in the US while working with PA. Stop spreading this fud people, PA is not going away. The team has been getting hounded left and right and is really discouraged because people are so upset a rom isn't being pushed out daily/weekly/whatever they want. Development is continuous, look at their gerrit and youll see daily they are working on stuff but everyone is busy with life. Pirate just started a new job. Andre goes to school and has a life, you guys just need to relax a little. Ill repeat this again for the special kids on this forum, no one has left PA, again NO ONE HAS LEFT PA.

---------- Post added at 01:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:17 PM ----------

you are very wrong, look at gerrit there are changes made DAILY and if they aren't made daily its every few. You are looking at github wrong if you are seeing changes only from middle of feb. If you are going to try and jump down someones throat at least understand what you are looking at.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] akellar:
First off, the conversation was over. Stop trying to be the internet white knight. I didn't jump down anybody's throat.

2nd off, there have been 19 commits merged since Feb 19th and almost all have been theme related cherry picks from CM. If you're going to attempt to call someone out you should probably make sure that person is wrong.

Sorry OP, I will not be responding to the XDA kiddies in your thread anymore. I wish you luck with your rom.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Circaflex:
19 commits shows development is still going, whether its 1 or 2, its still work being done. You said they only seem to update things once a week, which is again wrong if you look at their gerrit. You guys make it seem like they are doing nothing and not updating. Hopefully all these children move to different roms so we can enjoy PA

Before I flash which kernel and build (AOSP or CM) do you recommended for best battery life? :confused:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] daleski75:
I don't do much more than just compile the builds and as for kernels stick to the stock one until you are happy it's stable and then try a custom kernel.

Bit out of touch with custom kernels but Franco's Kernel is a very good place to start.
