[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] crosstiger:
Is it normal that you cannot record in 4k resolution? With the default camera app I can only choose 1080p for video, but the Alpha is capable of 2160p. Selecting the 4k option in the open camera app result in the error "Sorry, 4k UHD not supported on your device". Is this a CM based issue or related to the RR rom?

Otherwise:

+ Much better battery life

+ Better customization

+ Better security settings

+ Permission manager

- Funny behavior of widgets if you change the grid size

- Wake-Up time much slower than on Touch-Wiz :(

- Fingerprint scanner and cover view doesn't work (I heard that’s normal due to closed source?!)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] loligans:
I want to get a live console boot for my device.

I have a script that Chainfire has written that displays a live console.

My problem is when I put the script into

"/system/etc/init.d/"

It executes after the lock screen appears, and shows the live console on top of the lockscreen.

What I am asking is how do I execute that script in place of the bootanimation?

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bill1clinton:
Hi Guys,

I would like to inquire about the following. Is there a way that I can implement "disable full screen keyboard" myself without Xposed? Without this feature, typing in landscape mode is very annoying. I see many other ROMs that have this feature. But I wish to stick with CM12.1 for now. If there is already such a ROM, I would really appreciate it if you can point me to it.

PS. I am in no way remotely capable of modifying coding.

Thanks guys in advance!
[Firefox OS General] jago25_98:
Android has some design flaws that have been there from the start. UI will always lag because it is not a priority. Audio also lagging for this reason. Also we have all the other problems with Google itself.

Apple, is Apple. Not playing nice with others. No swiping keyboards, no darkened screen for use at night, killing Bitcoin apps, just some examples.

So I thought I'd check out FirefoxOS. But does it have the same design problems as the majors?

There's an openness to it. Great. What keeps that protected?

Can the .zip signing process be both decentralised for those who prefer this or is this a security can of worms?

Is the UI and audio designed like iOS or is it just another mess like Android?

In other words, do you see a basis of a great alternative because it has it's own merits in design? Or is the only thing going for it a more open design?
[Firefox OS General] Saijin_Naib:
In my opinion, currently the only advantage is the open nature and how you are in control of your data on the device quite easily.

UI is simplistic to a fault and there are tons of missed opportunities to make it work and flow easily. Performance is pretty poor considering how it looks and the specs of the Flame.

Advantages: Themes and add-ons are coming. They're in the emulator build to test. This is incredibly exciting if Mozilla manage to not **** this up completely or hobble it to make it completely ****ing useless.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dennisg34:
Hello all,

I have an upgrade to use with Verizon. Currently on the S5 and can't stand the fact there's no development cause of locked BS Samsung crap. Just wondering if I should get an "older" phone like the N6 or try out the G4 (they tend to get unlocked within a couple months). Want to get away form Touchjizz and Sammy thanks to Verizon. Any comments would be appreciated!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ed Murray:
I recently purchased the Nexus 6 on Verizon and I'm extremely happy. I also have an active Note 4 and now never use it. I'm having so much fun flashing ROMs and customizing the device (wood back covers, etc) that being 6 months old doesnt bother me. I'll wait for the next Nexus before upgrading again.

Also, this is the only device that I've purchased from Verizon that came with ZERO bloat. Literally nothing. Even AT&T crapped that up. It doesn't make great use of Verizon's Advanced Calling feature (native video calling) but who cares. VoLTE works.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dicecuber:
Obviously get the G4. Nexus devices have subpar battery life
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Dude, i have almost never seen a postive comment of you about phones in multiple forums. Why do you always endup with the wrong phones and do you even have a Nexus 6?

That said both devices are awesome but very different. The G4 has a swapable battery, external sd card support up to 2TB, a superb camera wich some find even better then that of the Galaxy S6 and a gorgeous screen. Batterylife will be a bit better than de N6`s but the N6 is a developer phone with many choices of roms, kernels, and mods too choose from. The Nexus 6 has a good screen but in full sunlight sometimes not very clear, the speakers are great, its superfluid with no lags and in daily use a very good phone to use and it kind of grows on you :)

I recommend the 64GB version as there is no sdcard slot and the battery is not swapable and the speakers are very good imo.

So both have things going for them, best is to play with both in real life in a shop if you can and see wich one feels best for you.

[MENTION=2743227]gee2012[/MENTION], am I lying about the battery life?

Nexus are great besides that and the camera
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
I never call other users liars bro, i just noticed your name and it reminded me of the negative comments you used to post about the last years N5 i believe. But enough about that, the batttery gets me through the day and have about 4-4,5 hrs. screenontime wich is sufficient for me. Its not Note 4 and certainly not Ascend Mate 7 figures but enough for me ;) It varies depending on settings and usage per user. The camera shoots pretty descent shots with sufficient light and lowlight with HDR+ isn`t bad either for me, but again not Galaxy S6 or even LG G3 quality.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] backdown00:
It depends whats important to you. The newest hardware of the lg g4 or the openness of the nexus 6 software. Most devices by today's standards do not lag or show much stuttering when doing basic tasks such as texting, emailing,calling, surfing the internet, etc. It comes down to what you plan on doing with the phone. Will gaming be an option? Are you looking for a top of the line Camera? Once you figure that out, the choice becomes clear.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] semperfi123:
I think that lag is actually a very underrated issue with devices today. The G3 definitely lagged, and my S5 lagged horribly. Even the Note 4 isn't completely lag-free. However it does seem that reviewers haven't noticed any stutter in the G4, which is a good sign.

OP, one other thing to be aware of is that while the CPU in the 808 found in the G4 edges out the 805 found in the Nexus 6 the GPU in the 808 is significantly weaker than that of the 805. Otherwise I'm sure the G4 will be a great device. The camera will certainly be better than the N6's, and battery life should be comparable.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] backdown00:
Can you link any websites showing the adreno 418 being worse than the 420? I did some fast googling and although there's not a lot of info it seems the 418 is as powerful as the 420 if not slightly more edging it out and is also made on a smaller die 20nm vs 28nm.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] semperfi123:
From Anandtech: "In terms of graphics performance, the Adreno 418 is apparently 20% faster than the Adreno 330...and the Adreno 420 itself is something like 40% faster than Adreno 330"

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] backdown00:
Ahh I kept googling adreno 420 vs 418. I should been looking at 418 vs 330. Thank you for this!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dennisg34:
Thanks everyone for your input! I would be using the camera more than gaming. Only gaming I do is the occasional w/e game while I'm taking care of business lol. Nexus was thrown in here because of all the development it has right now. I might be leaning towards the G4 just with all the extras it has and the phenomenal camera and it will still be faster than my S5. I own it, and yeah it does have some lag still. Can't stand Touchwhiz anymore and the lack of development thanks to their boost in security. Not sure why the last several Nexuses weren't removable batteries. Just an OCD thing on my part as well as external storage.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ed Murray:
Yes Samsung phones have become harder to ROM, root, etc, unless you Go for T-Mobile/international and even then its not great.

If you plan on using the camera often, take it from a Nexus 6, Note 4 user - check out the G4.

That's my suggestion, good luck in your decision :)

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Errr, what?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doitright:
I stopped wearing a watch when I got my first cellphone that had a clock on it.... because WHY?

Watches are very inconvenient and uncomfortable. They force you to twist your wrist in an uncomfortable direction.

A "Smart" watch is not very smart at all, because its screen is too small to be even slightly useful.

And it can only duplicate a (subset) of the functionality of the host cellphone... so again.... WHY?

You have a phone in your pocket, which can do EVERYTHING WELL, so why suffer with a watch that can do very little.... poorly?

These watches are going to be a VERY short FAD.... and people who buy them will start leaving them at home, because they are NOT essential, ARE uncomfortable, and really don't matter at all.

Now let me explain what a marketing gimmick is.

A marketing gimmick is.... wifi in a car. You're going to PAY EXTRA for a dedicated cellphone service for your car when you have a cellphone with wifi in your pocket you can share data from? Gains you nothing AT ALL.

A marketing gimmick is.... cell networking built into a TABLET, because like a car, you already have a cellphone with wifi in your pocket from which to share your data connection. You pay more for the hardware, and you pay more for the extra SERVICE, and yet GAIN NOTHING.

A marketing gimmick is... a smartwatch.

A marketing gimmick is something that is entirely USELESS that costs the manufacturer VIRTUALLY NOTHING to be used to TRICK DUMB PEOPLE into thinking that they are getting something REALLY AMAZING, **AND PAYING MORE**, when really, they are given absolutely nothing of any value at all.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
I agree. I can think of two uses for me to have one, and I don't need either use any more.

Use 1 - When I was an IT contractor, I used to take public transport and navigate on foot to job interviews. Glancing at a watch could have made that easier

Use 2 - when I used to travel public transport to work with my phone in my pocket and my headphone jack plugged in, it would have been convenient to pick new tracks without constantly trying to get my phone out of my pocket or keeping it permanently in my hand.#

BUT, neither of those are applicable to me now so they're use is gimmick only.

I do like a proper watch. A nice, Swiss one preferably. For no real reason other than because I like them :)

[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] An0nLegion:
Hey guys, I'm having problems with this kernel my phone doesn't boot up it just gets stuck at the CM logo where there is that blue alien looking guy.

Im using a GT-I9295 with running cm-12.1-20150719-NIGHTLY-jactivelte ROM, I had no problems with it except battery drain and inactive sensors so I decided that flashing a custom kernel might help.

So today I decided to download the latest CM12.1 nightly for my S4 Active (cm-12.1-20150720-NIGHTLY-jactivelte) and the latest compatible custom kernel (KT-SGS4-LP5.0-AOSP-eur-02.15.2015).

I flashed my phone with adb as follows:

<procedure>

reboot to recovery (CWM-based recovery v6.0.3.5)

wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache partition

advanced -> wipe dalvik cache

install zip -> install zip from sideload -> adb sideload cm-12.1-20150720-NIGHTLY-jactivelte.zip

install zip -> install zip from sideload -> adb sideload gapps-5.1.x-20150404-minimal-edition-signed.zip

install zip -> install zip from sideload -> adb sideload KT-SGS4-LP5.0-AOSP-eur-02.15.2015.zip

reboot system now

fix permissions -> yes

</procedure>

now my phone doesn't boot up as I initially stated, it only shows me the CM logo and get stuck there, what did I do wrong?

Any comments/suggestions/tips/corrections is much appreciated!

Thanks!

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chad_Petree:
One thing I'd like to know is why are there so many variants of the Note 4?

What's the purpose, isn't the snapdragon 805 supposed to have so many LTE bands to precisely avoid having to force manufacturers to make so many phone variants, isn't it supposed to have global LTE?

Please don't tell me the only reason Samsung made so many variants is to cater to service providers that wanted the bootloader locked.

This situation is making development, root etc a nightmare.

Do you know if the s6 has a many variants as the Note 4? Or has Samsung continued this stupid trend?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdm9mm:
I don't know about the S6 as I'm not interested with a phone without sdcard aupport but the many variants of the Note 4 are found in the USA and you're right it is partly to cater for the carriers as they play MONOPOLY. Korea has a different model I guess compared to china model and the rest of the world. I also wish they would make a phone with global LTE etc. But the Note 4 N910C and N910F have the best LTE coverage compared to previous models like Note 2 and Note 3.
