I am trying to Hardreset my Xda IIs am i correct in saying you Press the Power button and the Soft reset button?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Someone Walkin':
For a WM2003 machine.. yes, pressing those will clean your pda and reinstall your rom..

It's different for a WM5 machine though.. for that your have to press reset, camera and recorder.. I don't know why it's different. (according to wiki.)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HorNet505:
I know from old Andoid OS threads that it was necessary to split format an SD-card in fat32 and ext3 or 4 partitions.

I now use ANdroid 4.4 and got myself a 128GB SDcard.

Simple question: is it still neccessary to reserve a ext3/4 partition for the OS ? Else I would all format to fat32

Hi.. Can i install any Note 3 ROMS other than Sprint ROMS on Unlocked Sprint galaxy note 3

Like installing roms of http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-note-3 this link

(Only Qualcom ones)thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jimzweb1:
Did you mean unlocked bootloader ? All Sprint Note 3's have an unlocked bootloader. Or did you mean internationally unlocked ?

You need to install roms that are set up for the carrier you are using i.e. SPRINT AT&T etc. Now the other you have to be aware of is what your current of KK is. NC5, NH7, or NK4 ? That will determine what tom you are going to be able to run. If you are on say NC5 then you what to use an NC5 based rom. If you on NC5 and you what to run a rom based on NK4 then it would be best if you flash and root a stock NK4 OS. Then flash the custom NK4 based rom you want. To determine what a rom ids based on look in the OP thread it will be there. The only exception is an AOSP based rom like CM or C-Rom here is the link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2739968 this rom will run on your device and it is not sprint. For more info click my signature. Enjoy !!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Aamirx27:
I can use any carrier om my device whether GSM or CDMA, its unlocked. Do i still have to flash roms matching baseband or Ids or i can flash any note 3 rom
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jimzweb1:
The baseband needs to be within the version of the OS. Meaning, for instance if your running KitKat the basebands are 4.4+ NC5, NH7, and NK4. If you tried to flash a rom that is older ( like ICS 4.0 with a baseband of MJ1 or MJ4 ) the bootloader will not let you do it. If you went to Lollipop your baseband will be 5.0 something still to new to say exactly. Think of the baseband as a antenna, some guys will run a rom with a NH7 base and a NK4 baseband because they get better signal. You will have to try different and see which baseband works best for you, every phone is different, and every area people live is different.

As far as whether to use GSM OR CDMA that depends on which carrier you are using now. The device will run on both signals. So if you are using a carrier like Sprint you will need a CDMA based rom, if you are using a carrier like AT&T you will need a GSM based rom.

hey can i install N9005 Roms or TMobile roms in N900P is it possible ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jimzweb1:
Yes, click on flashing rom basics in my signature all the links are there. Enjoy !!!!!

---------- Post added at 07:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:02 PM ----------

Theoretically yes, but in reality no. Lets say you installed a Tmobile rom on your Sprint N900P. It would most likely boot up but you would have no signal because the baseband that came with Tmobile rom would trying to connect to a Tmoblie cell tower. So if you have your service with Sprint and not Tmobile it's going to try and verify an account with Tmobile that does not exist.

Hey guys yesterday i had opened my Facebook and given acces to an app for some jokes

After sometime i opened my activity log and OMG ihad liked photos of people whom i didn't know

Those were muslims,Americans,Indians, etc what would i do my account is liking other's photos automatically please help help!!!
[XDA Assist] herna:
Hello, this is herna from XDA Assist, I will help you with that.

Sometimes when you allow some websites to access your Facebook profile they can control most of your activity and do actions for you.

So maybe someone got your account information and password, which I don´t believe. Or maybe the website you allowed to access your account is just giving like to all the websites where it is connected.

If you want to take control about what websites you have given access and regret the access to them you need to go on your laptop or PC, login on your facebook account, then log into Settings and then on Applications. There you´ll see a list of all websites you gave access. I would recommend you to deny the access to all of them and delete all of them.

Wish I helped and waiting your reply :D
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajm786:
I am in the market for a new phone, but couldn't decide between the Nexus 6 or the Note 4. I have the Note 3, which works kinda ok, but I really hate that it doesn't have NFC working (it's infamous for that).

After doing tons of research, I was going to go for the Nexus 6, but there seems to be a ridiculous bug that it has with NFC disappearing completely from the device, either at random, or when going over 43% storage capacity for the 64GB version. Unbelievably ridiculous.

http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/help/rooting-disables-nfc-t2959017

http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/help/nfc-bug-help-please-t3006882

http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/help/nfc-unavailable-t2986909

At least the Note 4 doesn't have that kind of ridiculous issue with NFC, other than a wakelock, which is easily solved. So for this reason, I've made up my mind and will be going for a Note 4. Also, LP is just as unstable on the Nexus 6 as it is on CM, so I think I'll be in safe hands.

Does anyone have any hands on experience between Note 4 vs. Nexus 6 and can chime in?

Thanks!

Get the Note 4. You won't regret it. Also, remember to get the T-Mobile version. Rootable

Not one issue with the gps! I literally use it everyday and it locks quick.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajm786:
That's great to hear. I myself use GPS daily, so it's a must that it be functioning properly. I mean, my Note 3 is not like my Nexus 4, which locked instantaneously EVERYWHERE, even inside in a basement, but it still works properly in that it never leads me astray and locks as soon as I need it to.

As long as the Note 4 is not any worse, that is all I ask.

I thought this thread got closed for "creating fanboyism"

---------- Post added at 04:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:27 PM ----------

Mods here seriously are hit or miss with their decisions to close certain threads and leave others open. Make a rule, stick to the rule and police the same across all threads. Very simple concept.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Fanboyism? Lol... Which rule is that one under?

We allow honest comparison threads that stay within the rules. Other people may be torn between the same choices.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pierrekid:
Maybe check the deleted posts from this very thread kenny if its within your power. This thread was closed and the mod who closed it said these threads serve no purpose. " Create fanboyism" was the term used. Once I'm home I'll google the cache of the thread before it reappeared. Maybe you should talk to your fellow mods.

Just for reference I agree with you.

---------- Post added at 06:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:56 PM ----------

Plus its pretty apparent it was close. Within a 2 and half hour period of the thread opening up there were 13 comments, then all of a sudden no comment for 3 days? Pretty clear the thread was closed and reopened. And from what I was reading when it was open, everyone was respectful and giving honest opinions. Just saying... also the mod was [MENTION=4169204]edfunkycold[/MENTION] here is the beginning quote from when he deleted it " 1. comparison threads are not really beneficial to anyone. Please …"

Apparently thread reopened
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Yes Pierre you are correct and I apologize for any confusion this has caused you or anyone else. I was on my morning patrol and found it closed in the General subforum. Reading it over it seemed like the OP basically wanted advice. So I made the decision as Team Leader to overrule the closing and reopen it in the Q&A section. It is my bad that I did not post a reopening statement...I should have. In the past we have indeed closed device comparison threads and you know I myself have created sticky threads for those discussions. As with all things, we as a website evolve (thankfully we evolved passed Iron Fist eh?) and it was decided that comparison threads, if they stay within the rules and do not turn into the fanboy threads, would be allowed...now that does not include iPhones...ever! LOL...this started as an experiment a few months ago and seems to be working OK...members are behaving. Some of the mods here are used to the sticky threads I had made and it was a reflex to close this in General section...and really should just have been moved to Q&A. Hope this clears everything up. Again...apologies.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pierrekid:
Thanks for clearing that up kenny. As for the OP, i do tend to have some gps locking issues once in a while with the note 4. Its few and far between but they do happen. However im going to go out on a limb and say that most phones will have gps locking issues every so often. I know i have them on both my nexus and samsung devices. Overall i think the note 4 is the better phone.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajm786:
Yes, I myself was completely taken aback and surprised that this thread was closed. It was never even crossed my mind to introduce any "fanboyism", or for one to bash the other. As a matter of fact, I was very happy to have created this thread, because I was getting some great feedback, and also may have inadvertently helped Nexus 6 owners become aware of an issue with NFC, as I myself had no idea it was an issue...and then suddenly the thread was closed.

Either way, I'm glad that this thread was reopened. I was very, very close to getting a Note 4 yesterday evening, but lost out on the deal! :crying: I'm definitely grabbing one very shortly though.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] levistover:
To be honest, while both great devices, I'd go with the nexus 6. I've used both, the nexus 6 is faster, especially with 5.1.0, and the cameras aren't all that much different. Google gives better gives better support in my opinion. And I noticed you talking about the note 3 having the best audio on any phone you've heard? The front facing speaker phones are most often better.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajm786:
While I tend to agree with you in general, I intend to be rooting and installing a custom ROM, so I'll have community support anyway. Also I should have clarified: I meant to say headphones audio quality. The Nexus 6 doesn't seem to be better than the Note 4, in terms of stereo crosstalk. I do agree that speaker output on the Nexus 6 is better.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] levistover:
I would say the headphones used, and the files played are more relevant. I use sennhieser momentum over the ear headphones, with hours of time put into optimizing viper4android for said headphones. The quality is unbelievable. The headphones audio can be made as equally more improved on each device.

BAD ASS NOTE 4
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donnyp1:
Im considering the nexus 6 also. I became accustomed to the huge community for the nexus 5. I started out using my spen frequently, but havent touched it in months. I get frequent dropped calls and my camera blurs on opening everytime. Throw in the lack of any updates, and i feel the note 4 isnt worth it anymore.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android_Monsters:
The nexus 6 has no SD card slot, no removable battery, and an inferior screen.

Also, there is no development to speak of.

I couldn't do it. I gave mine to my mom.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajm786:
Have you rooted it and tried a custom ROM? From what I see in the Android development section, there is plenty of support to be had. The Note 4 is even on Lollipop now.

Yeah, no SD card is indeed a pet peeve, but what do you mean by "no development"? It's a Nexus. The Nexus 6 forum is awash with custom ROMs for it. If you mean Lollipop in general, then yes, I can understand.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android_Monsters:
I'm looking at the nexus 6 development section and it looks like stock rooted roms with light tweaks.

In the tmobile note 4 development section we have real roms. Firekat, infamous, etc.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajm786:
Aaah, I see. But I actually attribute that to Lollipop than I do to the phone. I'm actually very disappointed in Lollipop compared to Kit Kat, as it is a step backwards in many places. But if I am going to use a LP ROM, I'd indeed rather use it where there are lots of ROM choices, hence, why I want to get a Note 4. Yeah, that's kinda backwards, as it's usually Nexus that has all the options.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce lee roy:
This is common with nexus devices. After owning a nexus, I soon realized that nexus is truly a developers device. They struggle to get even a fraction of the features in non-nexus devices and when they do, it's often times unstable. Get a nexus if you 1. Plan to develop apps or 2. Only expect the most basic function from your smart phone (eg internet, calling, text, etc). Good choice for non techie, not sold on apple.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] umberto1978:
This is not totally true. Nexus devices offers great features (hardware side of the thing) that make those devices powerful like any other OEM product.

What is different from Samsung or HTC Or lg are software features. As an example I can say how nexus 6 that has a huge display is not truly optimized with a solution like size reduction (note 3, note 4, kg g3) of the working area or any other "one hand solution".

In the end, but this is recently not more possible on some de vice a because of OEM restrictions, who own a brand device can choose between stock OEM ROMs and aosp or cyanogen based roms.

As always is the final user that should be knowledgead of what his money can buy.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donnyp1:
Ive tried every single rom out there. Always end up back on stock rooted that i debloat myself. Runs great with great battery life. Honestly, i prefer sense over tw and stock over them all. Id probably try a nokia windows phone if tmobile had one with a fantastic camera. Ive been flashing since pre android days. Nexus always seems more enjoyable.

The first and the second can be the same if you don't damage your phone. What is $100 additional hardware worth for? It's not a car that you could buy extra things. The hardware is just fine in terms of specs. It remains to be seen if the phone is as good as the M8.

[One (M9) General] Quadrider10:
Their coverage compared to AT&T is not good.
[One (M9) General] WorldOfJohnboy:
In case you didn't read about this program, in the fine print, it gives you $100 towards the purchase of a One series (present or future) phone through HTC's store. Considering many people buy off contact anyway, this is good since you could get a new phone off contact for cheap. If you purchase the phone on contact now, you will still have a year left on contact when HTC gives you the $100, so you'd have to pay retail anyway.

I still believe it's a great thing that sets them apart from Apple or Samsung, in addition to having the best phone of the three to begin with.
