[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rey_1178:
Well the refurb before this one lagged terribly in those areas but all the time no matter what. Did you do a factory reset already? If you did and it's still the same then your phone is crapping out.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rey_1178:
I hear ya. I'm just glad I got a great one this time, so far so good :good:
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigMosley:
The phone came factory reset, I HATE doing that all my dang apps get erased and have to start over. If it happens again later I will call and just say Yeah I already factory reset it and still has problems. When your battery gets low later can you charge the battery and surf the web and use the keyboard and see if it lags? I wonder if its just the new Fast charge technology thats making it lag when the screen is on.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rey_1178:
Sure I'll check that for you.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigMosley:
Thanks, I checked the forums and couldn't find anyone else complaining about it.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigMosley:
I called Asurion and told them the issues I'm having and they told me I have to take it to a Sprint store and they may fix it or if its unrepairable they will replace it. When I had a claim thru Asurion before it was all thru them not Sprint, I'm assuming this has changed?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schlepprock:
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but if you use Odin and reflash the stock. tar it won't wipe your data/apps. Worth a try.. That's probably what the Sprint store will do.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhill110:
That has been my experience. The stock tar is from the Sprint update.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigMosley:
Is this true?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schlepprock:
Bump for info..
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigMosley:
Well I used Odin to go back to stock OB7, then did a factory reset then took the new OTA. I am curious to see if my screen/charging lag is gone.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rey_1178:
I tried this last night and did not see any lag anywhere. Hope you lose the lag after the hard reset.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigMosley:
Were you using the fast charger with the fast charge enabled? I'm going to try both later and see if its just the fast charge that's causing it.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rey_1178:
Yep. I always use fast charge
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droid2drummer:
I never go to the stores. I tell them i cannot drive. I live way out away and i walk everywhere and my phone is my only social outlet and that im sickly and need for emergency. That bypasses the whole take it in to be fixed crap.

Not to mention we pay 11.99 a month. Plus i pay 7.99 for bill credit limit. So im not letting it waste. They are trying to upgrade us now. Early ..1 year. By lease or new line or easy pay etc. Not sure i see any worthy devices. Yet..

---------- Post added at 10:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:56 AM ----------

Another one i use right off the bat. " I already spoke to samsung" then i go on to say they had me do all kinds of resets and im so tired of reinstalling all these apps ..lol.

To be honest. I traded g3 about 5 months back. This was brand new. We called sprint and did the exchange on phone. Wound up having issues so they had us swap phones and keep our sim which is what i always do. Anyway i have had a strange speaker hiss and pop off and on. Comes and goes on press off back or keypress. Both updates didnt help. So ill be eventually returning. My issue with rma is worry ill get one that one of us crack flashers had or better yet someone that loved 100% brightness and everything cranked. Gaming hard and kernel oc for crazy speeds and heat. I flash but im careful. I baby mine. So theres always that to keep in mind.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peterl23451:
lagging replacements

im in the same boat now have had a note 4 for like 8 months maybe if that

worked great no lag on nk2 or bob7 roms or stock

dropped it and broke the screen got a replacement through asurion and it lags heavy keyboard and videos

so went to sprint they got me another refurb its doing the same thing doesn't matter about nk2 or bob 7 or stock or custom lag city yall

so tomorrow im going to have to drive 40 minutes to the service center and raise hell

so frustrating having a top of the line phone and my 3 year old note 2 outperforms it

just wanted to let people know

are these refurbs using a cheaper chip inside or what?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigMosley:
Not sure about the chip or not. My lag only occurs when the phone is charging and I'm on it, and this is rare since I have no problem going a day on a full charge. Hope you get a fresh phone.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peterl23451:
Update on laggy note 4

Since I knew what my brand new note 4 was capable of meaning little to none keyboard lag. I also ascertained the replacements were just slower. Easiest way to tell is by typing gand freezing is evident in camera. Freezing even gets stored to recorded video.

Anyways I got my replacement from asurion first. Had lag

Next replacement was from sprint. Laggy still

Next sprint replacement had same problems.

Next sprint replacement was great. Finally my note 4 runs like it should.

I wiped and went back to stock nk2 before giving any of the phones back to sprint. They never questioned the stock rom x1 genuine or anything to do with rooting

Just a heads up that there's sub par refurbished note 4s out there. Don't get stuck with one
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rey_1178:
True. I was fortunate to get a much better note 4 with the 2nd replacement. The lag on the other one was a nightmare. Only issue I have is the right capacitive button doesn't work great. It's a hit and miss but I'm not risking receiving another laggy note 4. I either live with it or just pay up for a brand new one.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PeteSeiler2010:
I did not pay extra for insurance and I am suffering with the horrible lag. Would Sprint do a refurb for it without insurance? The odd thing is, when I am on CM12.1 there is NO lag at all. It will not let me flash the newest OG5 firmware, it errors out.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvtmg704:
Did u use kies
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PeteSeiler2010:
Yes, I used Kies, but at the time of me using Kies, it only had0F5 as the newest firmware. has that changed since last night?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvtmg704:
I updated to og5 through kies
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PeteSeiler2010:
When I plugged my phone in it told me I was on the latest firmware 0F5. When did you update?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvtmg704:
Just activate a spare phone on that line then a few minutes later reactivate the note 4 it will let u put insurance on it then u can do a claim
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PeteSeiler2010:
Thanks for the update, I don't have a spare phone. I will probably just hold out for the OG5 tar, I will check Kies tonight though.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvtmg704:
I have a spare if u want the imei
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PeteSeiler2010:
I appreciate the offer, but I will give it try to tonight and see how it goes.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tommybc:
I followed this guide https://youtu.be/-n0OSz44tTc[1] but after disabling encryption it optimizes the apps but then restarts again every time, i tried factory reset in recovery mode but it didnt change anything, i then followed this guide http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/general/guide-flash-factory-images-nexus-6shamu-t2954008 and i reach the end, but when i click flash-all bac , it says fastbook is not recognised, i can't find any way to fix it

I have the flash image in my down,load folder while the android sdk windows is on the dektop as recommended can anyone help?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Go to the sticky roll- up thread and read the adb and fast boot guide. Try and use the adb and fast boot installer to install fast boot correctly.

That said, what recovery do you have? If you have twrp, you need to format data not factory reset.. Best thing to do if you have flashed a custom boot.img is fast boot format userdata
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tommybc:
Nevermind i got it working because tjhere was no platform-tools folder, but when i nstall another error says archive does not contain boot.sig, recovery sig, error update package missing system. img
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
I can tell you how to get around that but first i must ask you a question.

What do you want?

Do you want to decrypt or do you want to reflash stock and forget about it?
[Redmi Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ehsan_zt:
Hi,

I wanted to buy Redme Note but I can not decide between 3G and 4G, I thought it is best to ask those who have experienced using this phone. For me supporting 4g is not very important, but I would like to have the best performance and battery life and I very much like my phone to be supported by developers . here are some questions I think is important:

1) which of these 2 (3g or 4g version) is better supported with custom roms or kernels? (considering one is mediatek and another is snapdragon)

2) is it true that this phone can not have a custom kernel because kernel sources are not being released ?

3) I saw antutu benchmarks for these 2 phones, MTK cpu should be higher than MSM one(which is normal considering the fact that one is 8core), but RAM score on the 3g was about 3K and on 4g 1.5K !!! is this a problem with first miui build or with 4g variant ?

4) won't the MTK variant, drain battery faster in daily use or gets hotter ?

5) considering all aspect which do you prefer ?

thank you in advance for helping me out :)
[Redmi Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] torchwolfery:
just a few days old

I know how you feel, Ive been debating the same question for the last few weeks, here is the basic skinny as I have understood things..

as far as performance most reviews seem to point to the fact that overall the 3g has better overall performance but the gap between them isnt that high as to make a noticeable difference.... for me the main question was support how long with miui support the 3g version now there is a g4??

when i was in the store i tried both devices and I just felt that all though the 4g is quicker for internet the3g just seems to feel somehow more powerfull than the 4g.. maybe the best choice for you would be to go to a store (if you can) and try both for yourself... one thing i can say is that which ever you get you will not be dissatisfied, Personally I will never be going back to samsung htc and so on ever again
[Redmi Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ehsan_zt:
Thanks for replying.

you are right, official support is important, but from what I've seen, miui 6 on this phone is not good yet (is it true?).

which one do you have? I would appreciate it if you can run antutu and maybe post picture of the detailed results, it would help me in confirming something.
[Redmi Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] torchwolfery:
V6

Ok so I am using v6 miui 5.4.24.. All I can say is that this runs almost flawlessly for me. I'm a bit of a flashaholic truth be told and in this first week I have flashed so many roms I've lost track. But in the end I came back to the multilanguage version of v6. It really makes the phone feel sweet.

Now for the last 2 days I've been thinking about what I said about support, unlike the big names xiaomi seems to really understand it's consumers. First off you don't lose warranty for flashing your phone, something I never understood in the first place, this means there is actually greater chance of longer running support because xiaomi and the users seem to really support each other in keeping the phone alive. I have never had a phone that has had such an easy time going between custom designed firmware and the original. In the end it's the user who will make the decision about which rom is best for them.

I did the annuity test and the results were very good considering what I paid for it... All though I do miss lte speeds of browsing on my HTC 610 it really is worth the trade off for everything else I have gained...

In the end I will reiterate my statement that it really won't matter the 3g or 4k you will be very happy either way
[Redmi Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] torchwolfery:
so in the end what did you finally do?
[Redmi Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ehsan_zt:
sry for late response.

I finally bought Xiaomi Redmi 2 with 16GB internal memory and 2GB RAM, and after using it for several month I think I made the right decision. It has great battery (1 to 2 days normal usage), it's cpu is snapdragon 410 which performs incredibly good, I've tried many demanding games, and I didn't have any lags. MIUI 7 is very satisfying and development for this phone is started, we have many LP roms. Overall I think it's better than redmi note 3g or 4g.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] franzpimp87:
I'm still in love with Skyrocket, but some developers and mantainers stop making new buils because feels like there are just a few Skyrocket users out there.

I think it's just because some of us are waiting for a more stable Lollipop release and better compatibility of xposed. But believe me, Skyrocket only needs a little push, and this is the time; I found a repartition thread for Hercules and same method works for Skyrocket, it means less space limitations and more juice to pull out of Skyrocket.

What do you guys think?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] eosman:
I still have the phone but even with a new battery I don't get much life out of it. Especially compared to my HTC One M7. I still have a real fondness for the Skyrocket. I'm running lollipop on it via the Candy ROM and it runs pretty good . In fact I think it runs much better than it ever did compared to when I had it on stock touchwiz.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Steveromingagain:
I see by looking at file host download counts that over 400 downloads for Lollipop.

So a lot still using,I know some may be repeat downloads where they have gotten bad dl's,but still plenty. Just don't know how many developer's are still rocking the skyrocket.

Hope they keep up the builds there doing now . Lollipop is making my SR faster and longer life on battery.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jshamlet:
Mine still get use as Ambio / music players. They are incredible devices, and amazingly enough, still reasonable performers. Not flag-ship worthy anymore, but remarkably close to the middle of the pack for mid-grade devices, and much faster than the low-end crap.

If Samsung hadn't gone nuts on locking (and encrypting) the bootloader for AT&T models, I'd still buy their hardware.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ilLuminatriXkill:
yap my beloved skyrocket is still with me as my daily drive :)

starting to have some problems with it but not something that a 15$ part cant fix ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] fluttershys:
My husband bought me the LG Optimus G (AT&T) as a gift. Ended up returning it.

I like both versions of the S2 (i727 & i777). My husband used the i727 before upgrading. Mine was the i777.

Parts are cheap and phone is way easy to repair. At the moment I am using the i727 because the i777 needs fixed.

I don't need all the bells and whistles of a fancy phone. I have an S5 but its used by the kids.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Fifen:
Still have my skyrocket. I'm running cm11 but really want a stable lollipop rom. But my phone is about dead. it is so slow and laggy i cant figure out how to fix it. ive switched roms and it still remains frustrating slow.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CobyKR:
I got my i727 back in 2012, and it's a great phone. My problem is finding a stable AND secure rom (meaning, consistent updates). My favorite for a while was Slim Roms' "Slim Kat"... but they haven't updated it in over a year I believe. I did find a way to increase app space by partitioning using a custom PIT file (someone shared how on these forums). I would be happy to hear rom suggestions, as I am using T-Mobile in the US currently.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] pallbearer911:
Skyrocket going strong still, even after 3 years.

I bought my skyrocket 3 years ago and I still use it with Stock AT&T touchwiz ROM. Battery is new and gives me half a day backup. I love it and the old 4.1.2 interface seems refreshing after seeing tons of lollipop phones with similarly decked out homescreens and notification bars. The big font, the big icons and the bright colours on this phone (Especially with the AMOLED screen) still feel awesome.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CobyKR:
That sounds nice! What service provider do you use? I am currently using T-Mobile, so I had to use a different radio to get it working better. Do you happen to know what radio that stock rom comes with, and if it might work for T-mobile? My phone is seriously throwing a fit right now so I gotta get a new rom on there soon. :D

*Edit* I just used Odin to return my i727 to stock AT&T rom (ATT JB 4.1.2 I727UCMC1 ..) which can be found here on Vincom's sticky under "

3: STOCK FIRMWARES: ODIN FLASHABLE - FULL/COMPLETE/ STOCK", and it seems to run fine as I use my T-Mobile sim card! Running very smoothly right now. Before the AT&T stock rom was updated (back when I got my phone in 2012), I do not recall it even using the signal correctly when I inserted the T-Mobile sim card, so I opted to use custom roms with short-term joy and a lot of pain and suffering in the long-run. Will let you guys know updates as I continue to use it, because long term is the real test of how a rom handles!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] pallbearer911:
I'm on Airtel in India. And the stock ROM comes with UCMC1 radio and it works pretty okay. The ROM is solid now that I've used it for 3 weeks now. There was one occurrence where the phone rebooted when the battery was low and when it came back on it had factory reset itself (That was a pain to bring back everything update). Other than that ROM has been solid.

As far as signal and data is considered, what I found out which worked better is when I installed xposed framework and installed a mod called Intelli3G. If I change the network mode to WCDMA via UltraCfg I used to get 1 bar signal. But when I used to switch network mode via Intelli3G I get 2-3 bars. I don't know why it is like that, but it works.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jimv1983:
Why would anyone still be using this phone? It was a piece of crap. Literally the worst purchase decision I have made in my entire life. Nothing but problems.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] vincom:
ymmv but for me it has never failed me in over 3 yrs since ive had it, its still my dd, flashed a ton of roms and apps and still using the original battery.

best purchase ive made
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jimv1983:
Still using the original battery after three years? My battery life wasn't very good even when new and was awful after like 6 months getting like 1.5 hours screen on time with like 8 or 9 hours off the charger.

I could see it being a little better with custom ROMs since you wouldn't have to deal with the pathetic TouchWiz but not much and I didn't want to void my warranty and insurance by installing custom ROMs. After the first update it was so slow(even after a factory reset) I missed half my calls because the phone was so slow that the call had went to voicemail before it had registered my swipe to answer.

The build quality sucked too. The phone was creaky and had several gaps between parts. The back cover didn't sit flush with the back of the phone even after replacing the back cover which I did 3 or 4 times during the two years I used the phone because of how easily it scratched and worn out.

It also had issues every few months were it would get stuck in boot loops.

After using that piece of crap for two years I vowed to never get another Samsung phone unless serious changes were made by Samsung.
