I live in NYC..

April 10: Amazon advertises release date of Gold Platinum color as April 27th - "want it the day it comes out? select 2 shipping with prime" - that was a lie. People ordering from AT&T got their Gold Platinum 3 weeks earlier. I ordered on 2 year contract and waited with a broken phone for this thing to arrive.

April 27: "Made in Korea" phone arrives, pink tinted screen.

April 28: Paid $1000 for an off contract replacement to be 1-day shipped, refunded when i swap

April 29: "Made in Korea" phone arrives, less pink but still not white whites, with a dead pixel (always green)

April 30: Order a second replacement. Return original phone.

May 1: "Made in Korea" phone arrives, another pink tinted screen.

Today: Called Samsung support: "yeah don't order from amazon." - called AT&T support "yeah dont order from amazon" - they told me i can buy it in person. Called AT&T store in the Queens Center mall and they said they have 2 64GBs in stock MADE IN CHINA. Called AT&T to confirm I can upgrade. They said yes, the manager at the store can cancel the old 2 year upgrade. So I get on the bus, 1 hour to the mall.

Manager at the store: "Customer service cant do this because you used your upgrade a few days ago "

Customer service: "Manager at the store can do this, we cant"

I put them on the phone with each other and spoke to supervisor: "ok no one can do this, your line isn't eligible."

I call Amazon: "ok we will try to get that cancellation on the contract order we see the phone is in the mail" "oh wait never mind we can't"

As I leave trying to order it over the phone full price, the AT&T dude says "oh you have like 4 more lines you can use the Next upgrade on for this line with no changes. just ask them to use one of those and sell you a phone" - dude. I can do that? HALF A DOZEN AT&T AGENTS IN THE STORE, HALF A DOZEN CUSTOMER SERVICE AGENTS ON THE PHONE, AND THIS FIRST GUY TO REALIZE THE STUPID-EASY FIX.

I go back in.

"we don't have any left in stock."

Facepalm. Double facepalm. Double facepalm and headdesk and chin to sharp furniture Edge (get it?)

kill me. and DON'T order your phone from amazon
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] LNJ:
Coloured pixel is not a dead pixel. It's just stuck. You can run a colour pattern to unstuck it!
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] theartialmartist:
That's doubtful but i'll look into it, regardless, i'm not dealing with this:
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] LinS123:
It might not be a dead or stuck pixel, but actually a dead subpixel. Where one specific subpixel represents one of the primary colors or however the display defines them.

Try cycling through a bunch of colors and see if it at any point the pixel just goes black, if so it's a dead subpixel. If not then it's probably a stuck one.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] theartialmartist:
Received replacement from AT&T. DEVASTATED TO SEE "MADE IN KOREA" on the box. Screen is more pink than the ones I got from amazon. Pic below.

1 more replacement, then I'm done with Samsung forever and getting a G4.

Interesting. I have Sprint. Amazon was set to release the Gold Platinum 32gb edge model on the 27th. I did not want to order from Amazon, so on that date, when it became available online at Sprint, I ordered it. So I have the same phone, but mine came direct from sprint. I wonder if it has the made in Korea stuff on the box as well. I did not notice anything. My whites seem white! lol. I'll follow up.

It seems maybe Amazon contracted out another manufacturer for these phones perhaps?

Something is wrong here especially with the logo on the left. I went to a store to buy one. It had the same smudgy logo as if it is a sticker. I refused to buy it and asked for another one with the logo clearly printed.

Hey guys I just started playing around with ROMS and I have some questions. I'm running Cyanogenmod 11 (5.0.2) right now and I'm kind of confused about how to try out other mods. For example I'd like to flash a kit kat CyanogenMod. Is it possible to run different versions of OS from the recovery? Can I switch between Lollipop roms and KitKat roms with no problems? and when I do flash another rom, how do I keep my settings and apps for the rom I'm about leave? And one more question, what is the best recovery to use? I'm using TWRP right now. Sorry for all the noob questions guys. Thanks for reading and I hope to read your responses.

PS- Let me know your favorite rom for this phone! Thanks guys :)
[T-Mobile LG G3] Still_living714:
the only way you can downgrade to kitkat in order to flash other kitkat roms is if you did a backup of you old kitkat rom including the efs. If you didn't you're stuck on lollipop. When flashing a new rom you can't save your setting but you can back up all your apps + data with titanium backup. It's not advisable to restore data as well as it can cause problems, so just restore the apps.

Introduction

After creating some apps to interact with WhatsApp I received several mails asking me how my apps manipulate WhatsApp.

Also I noticed a fact.. 56% of the devices which installed my apps had no root rights..

So they couldn't use my app.

This is why I decided to change something by creating the possiblity to interact with other messenger without root rights.

Furthermore I want to help you to develope a app which is able to do the same.

After several months of developing I'm finally able to present the results to you.

Supported messengers

WhatsApp

Functions (for developers)

Note: As this app works without root rights we have to accept some limitations caused by the lack of rights.

For example: It's impossible to fetch the location of a message.

My API is able to do the following things:

Sniffing messages from notifications

Sniffing messages from conversations

Determine profile images

Determine the location of images from incoming and outgoing messages

Determine the location of videos from incoming messages

Determine the location of audio from incoming messages

Send text messages

Send images

Send videos

Send audio

Also my API will inform you about the following things:

The emoji button was pressed

The conversation of a contact was opened

We received a new message

An app became visible (package + class will be passed)

Requirements

Android 4.3+

WhatsApp [Material Design] (Download )

beta

Until now this app is useless for normal users.

This is why I will prefer to grant access to developers.

Also I will upload an example module to demonstrate the functions.

(The translation link inside the app is invalid. (I forgot to remove it))

1. Join this

(for developers) Google+-Community

or this Google+-Community

2. Read the instructions within the community

Download

Google Play Store

Translation

The app supports already:

english

german (coming soon)

Soon I will offer the possibility to create translations on your own.

Social networks

If you want to get notified about new apps, new big features or just want to like seebye, you can follow me on Twitter, Facebook or Google+.

I'm looking forward to get feedback from you.
[Android Apps and Games] seebye:
Rules for developing a module

Your module has to have a clear focus. -> No alround tools.

We don't want to give reasons for going against this app.

-> No childish apps -> E.g. no apps to spam other person (I added a protection to prevent you from sending spam)

You're not allowed to create an app which interacts as man in the middle between other apps and the API.

-> You're not allowed to create a single app which handles all the API request from (your) other apps.

I reserve the right to extend the list.

Requirements to build a module

Android Studio

Gradle

Developing a module

[Android Apps and Games] seebye:
To also allow users to test my API I created a version of Seebye Scheduler which does not require root rights.

Modules

You have to become part of the Seebye Messenger API community to test these modules.

Seebye Scheduler NO root

Conversation Widget
[Android Apps and Games] lpdavidgc:
I can't download the conversation widget get 940 error on Google Play and not found in the api download
[Android Apps and Games] seebye:
I googled after you problem and found this post.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52274250&postcount=5

So you have to make sure you did the following things.

1. Joining one of the mentioned communities.

2. Become a tester of Seebye Messenger API.

3. Become a tester of Conversation Widget.

You have to join as a tester for both apps.

(It sounds like you're a tester of Conversation Widget only)

(4. Download & install Seebye Messenger API.

5. Download & install Conversation Widget.)

If it still fails to install the apps I guess that the google servers need some time to update.

Also I would try to install the apps after clearing the chache of Google Play Store.
[Android Apps and Games] seebye:
Update :

- double detection of incoming messages fixed

[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] krishxyz:
Hi,

I am planning to buy Xperia t2 ultra dual.I liked its design and UI very much. But my doubt is regarding its screen.I have searched internet for many days just to find out about whether T2 ultra has gorilla glass or not.

I just want to know whether it has gorilla glass or any other.Is xperia T2 ultra's huge screen resistant to scratches? I hope its users can give me a satisfying reply.

If its not scratch resistant then how do you guys protect it from scratches?

I have also read someone saying that it is a fragile mobile not able to withstand tough handling,is it true?

How was your experience using T2 ultra?

It would be very helpful if you can give me a satisfying reply.
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] rrajesh:
Hello,

Screen is not fully scratch resistant but it is fine. You can buy tempered glass for this device which helps to prevent and complete protection frim scratches and screen bricks.

Cost is only $2/3. There are some back panel protection glasses are also available in market, stop scratches on back panel.

I am using it since first day.

Full protection :)
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] krishxyz:
Thank you , But just one more doubt

Sir, thank you for your reply.I just want to know whether it has gorilla glass or :confused:
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] rrajesh:
Ofcourse :) It has corning Gorilla glass 3(Damage resistance glass) .
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] sankritya:
No it does not has a gorilla glass protection.That's why we use a tempered glass screenguard. It offers the same protection as gorilla glass
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] krishxyz:
:confused::confused::confused::confused:

Oh thats confusing.!!

Sir, you see one of the member is saying it has gorilla glass and you are saying it doesn't?

This is the main problem i faced when i decided to buy this phone.Some say it has gorilla glass while others say it doesnt. So what is true?? I contacted customer care (Sony India) and it seems even they are not sure.Has anyone had any experience with the scratch resistant capabilities of T2 ultra's screen?

PS: I think sony should mention about the screen in their product description
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] rrajesh:
Dude, in 1 line : don't worry about screen protection, it has and additionally u can use tempered glass without any touch performance issue. Buy or not its your desire :)

In current, Gorilla glass is not a mark to choose a device, it was in past years.
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] krishxyz:
Thank you !! :)

That solved my problem. Going to buy this mobile next month.. :)

Hi all. My daughter has been using my s3. I wanted to restore back to stock with Odin so i can update the phone for her. I've don't it so many times in the past without issue. Tonight I tries a few times. All goes well with Odin. No issues no errors. Yet when it finishes it boots right back up and nothing was actually done. Phone is same as it was. The phone was actually not restored to stock. What am I missing?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Is the phone an i747 or i747m? What bootloader is on the phone?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jasvncnt1:
i747. Ucdlk3.

When I go software update it doesn't do anything. It's rooted with custom recovery. So wanted to just go stock and then update.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
You're flashing the phone using the stock firmware from sammobile? What version of desktop Odin are you using?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jasvncnt1:
Odin is 3.06

Using the same file I've always used. Root_art_i747ucdlk3.tar.md5

Its just strange as odin looks good and it passes at the end. Think its worth into try re-downloading the firmware? These files and the version of odin are what I've always used. And its the USB cable that came with the phone. Computer recognizes the phone too.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Post a screenshot of the Odin progress. Are you unchecking everything except F.reset time and auto reboot?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jasvncnt1:
Correct. Those are the only two options that are checked. I'll try again and try and get pics. I know the first 2 times after odin was done it said "reset". The next two times it said "pass"
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Try re-flashing using rom from sammobile.com. You need a completely stock rom in order to install ota updates.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jasvncnt1:
Thanks for the replies and help. I'm gonna give that a shot.

Update. Same result.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] OKAstro:
I have the LK3 tar file. I can upload it to my Drive account and give you access to download it if you want. PM me your email address
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Try Odin 3.07. Weird that I see i9505 on the Odin screen.

Boot into download mode and let us know what is says on the screen.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jasvncnt1:
Thanks. Download mode says model is sgh-i747.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
That's good. As I said, try Odin 3.07 which is what I always use. When flashing, this is what I do:

Launch Odin, uncheck everything except f.reset time, flash. When I see the word reset in the status window, remove, the usb cable, remove battery, replace battery, boot into recovery, do a factory reset/wipe, boot phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] fausto412:
Similar issues as OP, trying to go back to stock and having no success.

Anybody have a good tar stock rom link I can use?

On CWM Recovery and Cyanogenmod 11, bad flash caused me to lose IMEI. Yeah I'm in a world of hurt here.

Attempting to download firmware from sammobile right now. I've tried many things and all failed.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Before flashing anything from sammobile, make sure you are now running a 4.3 or newer bootloader. Flashing a ROM from sammobile with a 4.3 or newer bootloader might bright your phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] fausto412:
How do I figure out what bootloader I have? I was on Cyanogenmod 11.

I tried to flash the sammobile firmware and it wouldn't flash. so no harm done there.

I want to recover my IMEI number and apparently t do tyhat you need to go back to stock so here I am.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jasvncnt1:
If you want an easy way just install Root Checker by Free Android Tools. It's free will give you all the info you need.

I won't be able to try out again until this weekend. But this is just driving me crazy. I have a folder with Odin and my stock file that I have had and used forever. Never had an issue. Just did this a few months ago when I did this to get the phone ready before I have it to her. No idea what's going on.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jasvncnt1:
Any luck?

Hello folks, I was looking for a decent Boot Animation for my nexus 5 and I came across a really nice one here on XDA. But for some reason the zip version wasn't working with my device, so I decided to fix it. Had to resize and zip properly to make it not lag and work. And while I was at it, I thought why not make it flashable and share with the community :)

Please Note: I DID NOT MAKE THIS. I just made a flashable working version. All the credit goes to the OP here

I did not know that META.INF files are unique and must be built by your self? I simply tried to figure out, by looking at the internals of a working flashable boot animation, how things work and then placed all the files necessary in proper order. It was never my intention to steal anyone's work. I gave all the credit to the guy who made the images of this animation. Give me the link to the person who's meta.inf the zip contains and I'll split the credit cake between the two.

Maybe something like activesynch
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mkovnick:
I just went through this. However, I am using Exchange Server. You need to call Cingular, get yourself escalated to a higher level 'data' tech, and talk to them about provisioning your account for diect push.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] MrDSL:
*SIGH*

Umm no this has nothing to do with Cingular..

Launch ActiveSynch and click Menu/Schedule

Make sure its set to 'As items arrive'

You may want to check off 'Use above settings when roaming'
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] peezy:
MrDsl is correct. I use the above setting for my work account eamail and schdeule the hours for business hrs. Btw you will want to have PDA connect plan for this because you phone will convieniently not turn gprs off at the end of your scheduled sync time.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] rambo6:
Gentlemen:

Thanks for the info. I have the activesync settings right. I have the PDA plan for the 8525. I'll call Cingular. So far I'm impressed with the data speed, but the voice quality and number of dropped calls far suppass what I had with T-Mobile.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] cuttriss:
Maybe i'm retarded, but I cannot for the life of me find the Menu>Schedule as MrDSL described. I've checked on the phone, on the pc... I'm guessing that I am just overlooking it constantly, but where is it?!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Dr Puttingham:
Open ActiveSync. On the left is Sync, on the right is Menu. Schedule.

And as everyone here has stated, this has absolutely nothing to do with Cingualr, period. If you DO decide to call them, you (and they) have more patience than I.

Also, one needs never use their PC to configure AS for push mail. My PC is used only to flash new ROM's and copy a cab.

Push Isn't Pushing

I've read this thread completely and I still cannot get the push email to push.

Facts:

1) I am using Dutty's WM6 Premium v. 2 on an 8525 on Cingular USA with the $44.95 PDA plan.

2) For internet settings, I have tried both the MediaNet Settings with all the proxy settings they suggest, and the more simple settings (My ISP) where one just uses wap.cingular and the User name of WAP@CINGULARGRPRS.COM and the CINGULAR1 password, but not proxy stuff.

3) On the Active Sync/Schedule settings, I have chosen "as items arrive" for both settings.

4) My Exchange Server is mail2web.com. Previous to buying a Cingular SIM card, I used the BA, a Wizard, and my 8525 to receive push email using a T-Mobile Sim (so I have a little experience).

5) I can get a 3G internet connection. It shows two 3Gs on the top of the today screen and then Two H's (for HSPDa) when downloading data. When the icon is tapped it shows how long the connection has been live.

6) I can get my email off the exchange server by clicking send/recieve, but I WANT PUSH.

7) I can put my T-Mobile Card in the 8525 and change the WAP settings to wap.voicestream.com and get email pushed instantly (The internet Icon at the top of the today screen shows two Es for edge network).

8) I can put my Cingular SIM in my Blue Angel and get push email (via GPRS).

9) This all makes not sense, I've got a live connection, I can download the email but it won't automatically show up.

Any clues would be greatly appreciated.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Scrog:
Have you tired isp.cingular and isp@cingulargrps.com (no proxies). These are for the PDA access plan (not MediaNet((=wap)) which runs through proxies)
