Heya, chaps :)

So, the idea of this thread is to share information on the apps you have found to work best with your RAZR HD's. Or something like that :) Share your favourite apps with a short description what it does and why you consider it to be good at it ;) Mentioning apps you found to be incompatible with our apps, even if they said they were, or the ones that just don't work as advertised is welcome, too.

When you do list your apps of choice, please mention which ROM you're using, too! There are many differences between various ROMs and Android versions, so it's only natural that some apps don't bridge the differences well.

This post will possibly turn into an index of recommended applications, if the thread gets enough attention :cowboy:

Cheers!
[RAZR HD Themes and Apps] niksy+:
Let me start, I suppose. Although, at the moment, I really don't use many (except the AOSP ones) at all :rolleyes:

gStrings Free Tuner - I play the bass and having a phone as a decent tuner comes in rather handy at many occasions and I've found this app to be pretty accurate, as well. The author has since made a fancier version called "Waves" but I've remained faithful to this one.

CM Next Camera - this has been my favourite camera app ever since I first installed it while I was on CM11 with my R HD. The UI is simplistic, yet absolutely perfectly intuitive for me - you set all your modes up and just flick through them with up and down swipes, while video recording starts as soon as you hit the dedicated in-app button. No need to switch to video camera mode first, as in many other apps, and no need to go into any menus if you, say, want to capture that beautiful scenery before you in HDR mode. But, ever since CM12 came along, it just doesn't seem to work as well, at least not for me. It often does a shot off-focus and the exposure and colour balance just aren't as good as they should be. I've searched and found newer versions of the apk, but it didn't help. I'm looking for an alternative now... Might switch to Camera Zoom FX, because that has given me great shots whenever I used it, but I'm open for other suggestions! I don't expect an DSLR-like pictures, don't get me wrong, but there's clearly something amiss here.

K-9 Mail - I've tried all of the fancy e-mail clients, but I always come back to K-9. It's just feels the most robust of all and it does everything I need. I don't mind if I need to tap the screen once or twice more than I would with a different e-mail client.

QuickOffice Pro - version 5.5.209 - this is an app I got from my old Defy and just continued installing it on the R HD. I've tried switching to different, newer versions and apps and I just don't find them as good. This works very fast, isn't bloated with a fancy UI, and has been able to open everything else any other office app can as of now. Is there a worthy replacement?
[RAZR HD Themes and Apps] forserg:
Did you try A Better Camera? One downsize for me is saving data to SD card is under development for Android 5.
[RAZR HD Themes and Apps] niksy+:
Will do :) Been using Camera Zoom FX (Pro) for a few days and it keeps asking me to comment and rate it on the Play store every 3-4 shots, it's awful. The video interface is bad, as well, you need to switch modes, then start recording, then it asks you whether you want to save it after pressing the stop button... Nearly lost my recording when I used it. Photography wise - it keeps trying to focus (and set other parameters) in the dark without firing flash for assistance so I get photos that are at least "burnt" by flash or blurry, along with that. Dang :rolleyes:
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] lexjay:
Please give me reasons to get this device.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Doolittle Duckbill:
sorry, just can give reasons why you should *not* get it:

not many units sold => small community => not many custom roms, hard to root

no separate recovery partition => hard to root, unstable

Sony seems determined to make life hard for custom roms while Samsung doesn´t really mind

if you do a lot of internet browsing: awkward form factor, the galaxy tab is much more comfortable. I have both and hardly pick up the Sony anymore.

The only thing Sony has got going for itself is water resistance. If you need that, Sony is an option but rooting the device will drive you nuts.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] anatole78:
Rooting this tablet is easy as pie !

All you gotta do is install Kingoroot and click "Root" :)

I agree that the lack of custom ROMs is a bit of a downside but personnally, I haven't had any stability problems due to the fact that there is no separate recovery partition.

I am not a big fan of the form factor either though, it's quite hard to get a good grip on the device :/
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] lexjay:
tnx

my only problem in Galaxy Tab S t705 is the battery, it can only last for 5 hrs with intense gaming and 10 hours moderate use.

I read about xperia z3 tab battery and i think it's all positive. T705 also have less developers for it. yeah, you make me think twice on selling my Tab S for Xperia Z3.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pr0sper0:
Hello All,

I tried to find the best place in the forum to put this thread, i hope this one is ok.

Three days ago i made a big mistake trying to root my ASUS TF103C, i have downloaded a wrong zip file with scripts for ZenFone5 and execute a .bat that destroy the tablet (totally my fault). i spent three days reading and trying everything, i read all the forums and tried lot of fastboot procedures and also EasyFlash with stock firmware "WW_epaduser9_2_1_27UpdateLauncher" but nothing. To make it worst (after reading a lot) i realize that i don't have recovery (power+volume down is not working) and i'm sure that my bootloader is locked (since i didn't unlocked) .... I don't know what else to do :( i'm sure it must be a way to flash a new firmware with fastboot, i mean, i don't want to loose the hope :crying: . At this point i really don't care which firmware , which android version i just want to revive the tablet. :(

I read this forum A LOT and i know you are experienced people with android and procedures like this.

PLEASE , can you help me ?

Thanks in advance and sorry for my english.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bava1980:
Hello Pr0sper,

i am quite a n00b too but i am suffering a similar error with my tf101 and was trying a lot too.

So just to make sure you did everything:

Are you able to connect your Tablet with your Pc? Is the PC recognising the connection with your Pc?

Is Cold-booting Linux available?

Can you start APX mode on Tablet?

Did you run ADB?

Regards

Bava
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aayushjoshi:
Hi All,

I was on some Lollipop rom for a few weeks and decided to try something new so downloaded one jackaway rom l2 and did the usual backup, factory reset and flashed the rom. All good but after say 30mins i decided to go back and restore my previous rom. Went to recover did a cleanup to install new rom and then started restoring the backup previously made however after sometime in the restore process the screen dimmed and then just blacked out without any warning.

Now my phone does boot up into recovery after removing the battery and putting it back again but any thing like flashing a new rom or restoring causes it sometimes suddenly blackout or goes through the screen dimming and blackout.

I have never experienced this before so can someone pls advise if they know as to whats happening and if Odin flashing is the only way left for me. Thanks

Forgot to mention, mine is a N9005.

[LG Watch Urbane] SyrinxPriest:
Hi all,

Purchased the watch couple days ago, yesterday was my first day to really put it through it's paces. Everything seems copacetic except for the WiFi syncing. I've got cloud sync turned on in the Wear app, and WiFi on the watch is set to "Automatic". I verified the watch is indeed connected to a valid WiFi network, with no exclamation points, etc., and I turn off BT on my phone (but keep it's data connection on.) I then try sending a text from the watch, no luck - "Try again from your phone." fail message. I send myself a text from my wife's phone to my phone, the phone registers it, but the watch doesn't. I go into Keep and delete a note on the phone, the watch still shows it. It's not until they reconnect via BT that everything syncs again. Oh, and I tried it on three different WiFi networks (2 at work, 1 at home), no success.

Here's the only thing that I can think of being different. The very first time I turned WiFi off on the watch, there's was a small Yes/No splash screen that came up saying something to the effect of "turning this off will prevent you from syncing"... I THINK. Honestly I can't recall what it said precisely (I was too excited playing with the watch), but the multiple times I've toggled WiFi since then, I have not seen that message again. Anyone know what message I'm talking about? Of course since it hasn't come up again I'm convinced it's the reason WiFi syncing isn't working now. I even factory reset the watch and cleared the data on my Wear app, hoping to get that message back. (It could be completely unrelated, it's just bugging me that ever since I chose "Yes I'm sure", syncing has not worked.)

Thanks in advance for any ideas/suggestions.

James
[LG Watch Urbane] shaolin95:
Did you ever figure this out?

I have the LG WATCH R with the Urbane rom and have the same issue. It shows connect to Wifi just fine but if I am away from the phone, I cannot send anything...just like when I have no connection.

I think the pop up you mentioned just had a option to prevent the warning from coming up again but should not affect the option to disable and enable the cloud sync.
[LG Watch Urbane] SyrinxPriest:
Nope, afraid not. I posted it to the Google Android wear forums and a couple of "experts" replied to me with suggestions that did not help (factory reset, mainly.)
[LG Watch Urbane] shaolin95:
Yep that has been my "solutions" too so far. I am not sure how the Cloud Sync works do you? It is linked to your Google account? If so, I have 3 email accounts..could that create an issue? I am basically looking for anything right now :D
[LG Watch Urbane] SyrinxPriest:
Here's what I did find out: my daily driver phone is a Moto X 2nd gen running Lollipop. I factory reset an old Samsung S4 and set it up with a Google account I'd just created. I then factory reset the watch and paired it to that phone. Wouldn't you know, the WiFi notifications worked! :eek:

I then factory reset the S4 again, this time using my main Google account to set it up. Factory reset the watch again also. After pairing them, the WiFi notifications did NOT work!

So, I can only conclude the issue is caused by how I have my main Google account configured, although right now I've gone through all the settings twice and verified that I have all of my sharing settings (like location) enabled. Argh.
[LG Watch Urbane] shaolin95:
Interesting. I will play with that next. Annoying as hell too though :D
[LG Watch Urbane] shaolin95:
Well my LG Watch R is now able to work with Wifi for real but only at home. Not sure what I did...I just deleted my accounts from Settings and added them back.

At work, though even when it shows connected, I do not receive any info from the Phone which is very lame since it was at work where I could really use it.
[LG Watch Urbane] SyrinxPriest:
Cool! Can you tell me what you mean by "deleted my accounts from Settings"? I want to test it too.
[LG Watch Urbane] shaolin95:
I have 3 google accounts so I actually deleted only two that are not my primary. Then I went to the Sync options and made sure all was checked.

Then also for the Location I removed any other devices that are showing under my account that are not my Phone (tablet and older phones) but not sure which one of those did the trick.
[LG Watch Urbane] SyrinxPriest:
Huh, okay, I'll give those a try. Thanks.

I did open a ticket with Android Wear Support and was told they were going to escalate the issue and I'd be contacted in 48 hours. That was Sunday. I just asked for an update and they replied that they have no solution ATM and no time frame to provide one. Heh! Oh well.

[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpaceDye:
Because it was ported from S3 to S3. What I understand from that thread is, it was ported from stock Jellybean to be used in KitKat roms ported from other Samsung phones. So no, it isn't possible to port it to the S3 neo.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sreinst1:
I have a new S3 Neo (I9301I according to "About device"), unrooted, with stock ROM.

I occasionally get a "no service" icon, which means there is no cellular service - and indeed, if I try to make a call when the icon appears, the phone tells me I can't call because there is no cell service.

I'm in Israel, Rami-Levy virtual operator. Used to have an S2 with custom ROMs, where I didn't have this problem at all, so I assume this is related to the ROM (or settings) and not to the operator.

In addition, I have a Chromecast device at home; when I try to "Cast screen" from my S3 Neo to it, it works for a few seconds (up to a minute) and then the phone hangs and I must restart using the power button.

I'll appreciate it if you can tell me how to diagnose or fix these problems. Thanks.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mike20017:
The only way that chromecast screen cast worked for me is when I flashed a custom rom. It's the only way. For some reason pure stock just makes the phone hang.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sreinst1:
Thanks.

When you say "custom ROM", are you referring to CM or RR? Or to one of the custom ROMs which are based on stock?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mike20017:
The ones based on stock work too. All custom roms (aosp and stock based) work with screen cast except pure stock.
