[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DRUMMERCD360:
I don't think 3G or 4G matter when making a call? You can turn data completely off and still make calls...the signal is only weak because youre inside (obviously lol). Since you said you use wifi and you dont care about data inside, why not setup wifi calling? If that isnt an option you want to take you can always call sprint? Last year i had the same issue at my house...i live in a neighborhood with about 2000+ houses and surprisingly signal was :thumbdown::thumbdown::thumbdown: ....my mom called sprint and told them about it and they gave us an Airave 2.5+ to put in our house FOR FREE...we still use it today even though they've fixed the towers in the area :D:D

Oh yeah! You can also go to the dialer and type ##72786# and click yes...that might help...after it reboots update profile and then prl in that order 2 times :D
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] merkk:
I dont know about data vs voice calls. All i can tell you is when i have the phone set to LTE/CDMA, inside my house the signal indicator is one bar and sometimes no bars/no service. When that happens, anyone making a call to me goes straight to voicemail. If i switch the phone to cdma only, i get full bars or maybe one bar less than full.

I don't think the airave will do me any good in this case because the airave is cdma only. So i'll wind up with the same situation - the phone will stick to LTE and I'll have poor/no signal unless i switch the phone to cdma only - and if i do that I don't need the airave since the cdma signal here is good.

Can anyone confirm if there is a US Cellular version of any of the ROMS that have been developed for the G PAD 7??

If not, I can provide a Stock Rom for development purposes if that will help...

UNLOCK LG G PAD UK410 US Cellular

I bought a 7" LG G PAD UK410 tab from ebay., the carrier is US Cellular. It doesnt accept any other simcard.

I am not sure if the tab is GSM or CDMA as it belongs to US Cellular. Please help me to know, if I can unlock this device?

when I put a non US Cellular simcard, it doesnt ask for any code.

Hey guys, do you know how much the price of the Note 4 is going to fall after the note 5 is realesed on September ? I care about the price without carriers and all this stuff because I really want a new phone and I am between the note 4 and the A7
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] macmobile:
Don't know but I can remember that a generation before the difference wasn't that much that I thought about getting a Note 3 instead of a 4.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] macmobile:
Could be different of course if the Note 4 has the features in store you're primarily looking for (exchangeable battery, micro-SD etc).

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] bbourdon:
I bought my SM-G900V less than two weeks ago, and though I'm relatively technical, I had no prior experience with smart phones. Yet it didn't take long for the annoyances provided by Verizon's "enhancements" to drive me to learn how to make my phone more like I wanted it to be.

Thanks to the hard work from the developers, as well as the generous sharing of tips and hard-won knowledge on workable techniques from many good people, a newbie like myself could get past the substantial technical hurdles - as well as the fear of destroying my new device.

The people of this site (and to a lesser extent, a few others) allowed me to move from being completely ignorant about modern mobile phones (and nearly paralyzed from apprehension over the unknown risks) to having enough insight and confidence where I felt comfortable enough to take the risks - including potentially having to purchase a replacement. After reading and re-reading many things that you all have written, I had more than "a clue," and went for it.

And as I rooted my device, I was well prepared for almost everything that happened each step of the way (the only thing that surprised me was the "Android is upgrading, optimizing app" message for each of the 471 apps on my phone (!?!), after each flash of a kernel - though this was probably explained in a section that I didn't read well enough).

I've purchased paid-copies of the related tools and more, I intend to make a donation on geohot's towelroot site, and I'll try to do the same for this site - when I find out how.

But that doesn't affect most of you, so to you please accept my gratitude, and sincere thanks - Thank You!

PS: I was very surprised to find my battery usage had gotten much worse in the hours following this. Starting around 2:40 am and lasting a bit over one hour, the charge went from 87% to 65% - even though the screen was off and I was asleep! Turns out it was mostly due to one app: "Support & Protection" - appears to be another gift from Verizon...

hey Bruce. I'm new to rooting as well, just did my first root a week ago. nerve racking to say the least.

anyways, I'm already 2 roms in, currently running optimal rom on oc4 firmware with the adb debloater at first boot. despite all my optimization, my battery life isn't as good as I'd hoped.

Hello Guys.. I have a little problems here.. hope some of you could help me..

Everytime Im restarting my XZ1.. the sdcard wont load and display on ES File Manager and other file manager to..

I should reinsert the sdcard after restarting the device.. Is there any way to solve my problems..

:) ;) :) ;)
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxLordxX:
Hi,

Have you tried going to Settings -> Storage and mount SD Card from there, instead of removing and inserting it physically? Also, have you tried to wait a bit before removing the SD Card? Sometimes the system takes a few minutes to fully finish boot (never happened on my Z1, but happens a lot on my Nexus 10), so maybe your system is leaving to mount SD Card later. Just a few ideas ;).

All the best,

~Lord
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demon148:
If you have recently update your firmware chances are you will need to flash your recovery again, I have noticed that the recovery the SD card are linked, so if your phone is rooted and you have Nuts recovery, and have recently updated then I would suggest re doing the recovery only that should bring back your SD Card.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sweet_anesthesia:
Soon the first owners of the Nexus 5, which includes myself, will own their device for 2 years. This is often the timespan after which many users start looking for their next phone, since many mobile phone plans have a runtime of 2 years before you might be eligible for a new 'sponsored' phone.

What are you considering to be your next phone, are you waiting for the release of a certain model or are you still happy enough with the N5 to postpone this decision for a while?

Greetings,

Dirk
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Johnny Broccoli:
Was just getting the itch for a switch in the last few months. Battery life is compromised and I'm not a big fan of Android L. To further push the issue my screen looks pretty crappy after going swimming with the phone in my pocket last week.

I'd like to be able to wait and see what the 2015 Nexus 5 is going to look like but if I had to upgrade right now, I think I'd get the LG G4. Or if I wanted to go a cheaper route while waiting for a phone I'm more in love with to be released, I'd probably grab a used iPhone 5/5S off Craigslist.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _jordan_:
Honestly with all the snapdragon 810 devices out there I am in no rush to switch. The 2016 chip lineup will be much better.

That being said, if my n5 breaks, and I need a new phone immediately, I'll either get another n5, or another sub $300 phone like the one plus one or xiaomi mi4.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ben36:
I kinda wanted the xperia z4/z3+ but it would appear that having a toaster would be a better option with that stupid chip they've put in it
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
One of the reasons I got the N5 was to buy it off contract, so no 2 year update requirement. Luckily the phone will easily last 3+ with its excellent specs, performance and software support.

I'd be open to updating earlier if the next Nexus device is able to offer similar value as this device. Otherwise, all the devices in the last year have been disappointing (battery life going backwards, unnecessary "MORE PIXELS" upgrades, over heating issues and fragile designs) and no upcoming device looks to be changing that trend either.

I'm glad I haven't needed to buy a new phone recently because I would not be happy with my choices. Buying a Nexus 5 on launch day may just turn out to be the best, and most well timed, purchase decision of my life thus far. This is especially true as I had no idea what I was getting into at the time as I had never owned an Android device prior and there was zero reliable information available on launch day. A complete leap of faith.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ethanfel:
if the new nexus 5 got a decent prince and is near the size of the current nexus 5, the nexus 5 2015. If not, i wait for next year.

---------- Post added at 09:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:39 AM ----------

Yeah. Before i jump on the Nexus bandwagon, i was feeling let down (had samsung's phone) when each new phone had a new android version when mine was never updated. With the nexus 5, i look at new phone and think "meh".
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Srandista:
Hopefully Nexus 5 2015, if the rumors are true. If not, I will probably wait another year (I was lucky, and get new N5 few days ago from RMA).
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] californicated:
Might be the OnePlus Two or the next Nexus. The decision was way easier, if I knew, whether the next Nexus will feature the SD 820 or not.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
Their insistence on using the 810 where all others have failed has made that a non-buy from me. I find it quite arrogant of them to think that they won't suffer from the same issues as other manufacturers are, and quoting Qualcomm's marketing (the COOLEST snapdragon YET! lol) isn't helping.

Unfortunately I imagine the next Nexus device to also be using the 810 since it will be heavily discounted. One of the reasons why I'm quite unimpressed with the latest batch of devices.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] resident0915:
I've replaced 4 screens so far on my nexus 5 because I can't ever decide on a better 5 inch phone without branding on the front :laugh:

Unless Motorola releases something like an updated Droid Maxx carrier-unlocked and with a monster battery, I'll likely be waiting for the new Nexus 5 :)

I'd love to consider other phones but I find brand logos on the front way too tacky after being a longtime Nexus user and before that a Motorola user.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ConorCX:
I've had the Nexus 5 since December 2013. Up until a few months ago I thought I'd never want a new phone for a couple more years.

Unfortunately recently my battery doesn't seem to last as long as it used to. :(

I'm waiting to see what this year brings; I'd love a Nexus this year but the battery has to be of at least 3000mAh otherwise a no go. Either that or I'll try to get my hands on an invite for the upcoming OnePlus 2.

I've always liked the appearance of Xperia devices (I seem to remember you from the Xperia S sub-forum). Along with the toaster chip, I'm not a huge fan of DRM restrictions placed on Sony devices when unlocking the bootloader (that is if you can unlock it.. My xS had non-unlockable BL).
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] [hfm]:
Got my N5 in the first shipment as well. I was one of those watching Sony to see if the Z3+/Z4 was going to be great. Nope. I'm actually still happy with the N5 and am not really excited about anything out there right now. Waiting to see if the next ~5" Nexus is going to impress me. If my N5 died I'd probably see if I could hunt down another N5 or even MAYBE live with the size of an N6 while I await another smaller Nexus.

I have larger than average hands but I just can't see myself with a phablet and actually be happy with trying to jam that thing in all my pockets. The N5 is already borderline sometimes.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ben36:
Yup, I used to have an XS! Lol. To be honest, I've been using android m. Completely stock and not having root hasn't bothered me at all. And i like the idea of waterproof, expandable sd and awesome camera
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndrasLOHF:
I got mine on launch week. I am desperately awaiting the new Nexus. Battery life on my phone has been abysmal. I might pick up a Nexus 6 if I do not think what is released will last a full day. I'd just like something to last from 6am to 11pm without needing to charge under normal usage without having to turn anything off, or flash custom ROMs/kernels, fiddle with setting, etc. After a couple years in the modding game I'd just like a Nexus that works to my needs without having to mod or cripple the phone or fiddle around endless settings. Such a phone must exist.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sweet_anesthesia:
So we all are basically having the same thoughts - unless we get a definite improvement in battery life and maybe camera and waterproofness, there is no real need to think about a new phone right now. After 2 years I am quite happy with my N5 and I feel no urge to find a replacement. A replacement should be an improvement - and I dont see big improvements over the N5 in any recent model.

Personally I love the openness of the Nexus devices, so my next phone will most probably be a Nexus again. But not the N6, because battery performance is the issue that bothers me most. So lets have a look at the N5 2015.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Johnny Broccoli:
What you mean when you say you say you got a new N5 few days ago from RMA? That wasn't part of the free replacement program was it? I called about that a few days ago and they told me that service had been canceled in June.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Srandista:
Well, I did RMA my Nexus 5 at 4th of June in France, and they immediately sent me new (refurbished) device. Once I got it, I tested it, and after that I just sent them my broken phone, same process, as when I RMA me phone before.

I don't know, if there was some changes since then.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joshmccullough:
I'm planning on sticking with the N5 until one of the following are met:

1. There's absolutely no development going on for it on XDA, or

2. There comes a faster technology than LTE that the N5 then, by default, can't support.

I should've gotten the 32GB model, but other than that I've got no complaints at all.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeszf:
Well I don't like lollipop, to the point that I'm currently using stock kitkat with gravity box. If I don't like android M either i'll just get an iphone.

I choose the nexus 5 because nowadays I like when things just work, but also because I like to have the latest interaction of the os. I can't have both with lollipop.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidrockz:
My next phone will probably be the next iPhone, which many may frown upon but I'm just tired of Android.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Johnny Broccoli:
I wish I stayed on KitKat. Don't really see any major benefits from Lollipop and it is a major memory hog, causing my home screen to refresh constantly when exiting an app. Has really been annoying me lately. Yes, I am rooted but the phone was way more stable rooted on KitKat.

Will be selling it today if all goes well. Got an iPhone 5 I can borrow (which I'm REALLY not looking forward to using) until I decide whether to purchase the Oneplus Two, Nexus 5 (2015), Oneplus One, or the LG G4. I'd just hold on to the Nexus 5 but feel like I'm getting top value for it today with the particular buyer I'm communicating with.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Johnny Broccoli:
Ended up going with the $479.99 deal on the LG G4. Hopefully this lives up to my most recent LG phone (Nexus 5). The heavy price drop on a flagship device plus the expandable storage and removable battery are what sold me.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _jordan_:
I'll wait till a nexus with a normal sized screen is released.

Not interested in anything with the snapdragon 808 or 810 either. So the new moto x and one plus 2 are out.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matrix_19:
I'm waiting for the new Nexus 5 (LG or Huawei) for an upgrade.

I'm tired of the battery life on the N5

The backcover started to unclip (maybe a plastic clip is broken)

The GPS is not always reliable

I'm tired of the camera's performance

I definitely need more than 16g storage on my next device.

other than these, the N5 is still a terrific device :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndrasLOHF:
I really just hope we get a bigger battery for this year's release. I really don't care about anything else. If the new Nexus can stay on par with the level the Nexus 5 was at when released but pack in a 3000mh battery I'll stay up all night f5'ing the computer to buy one the second it launches.

My Nexus 5 is still up-to-date and is runinng very well so I don't need to switch to a newer device.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jee_Jee:
It's getting old, but yeah: Longer battery-life or bust. I love my N5, awesome value for money, great performance. I can abide by time, and wait for an actual upgrade to come along.

Just tried rooting my phone with Kingo root, it didn't root my phone but it left. SuperSU on it. Now I really don't know a whole lot about this, see my attachment below, please somebody tell me I.can fix this problem!! :confused:
[HTC Desire 510] MrMike2182:
It didn't really leave SuperSU on it because it's telling you the binary is not on there and that you need to install it yourself... If this is your first time trying to root the phone I seriously suggest you go search the forums so you don't do something wrong... You should be unlocking your bootloader first and then installing recovery and SuperSU then making a backup in your newly installed recovery and THEN you can install roms/kernels... And you need a computer to do this!!

Yes, there is sound using aspice if you use the Intel hd audio driver. Unfortunately, the pc link video grabber doesn't record sound. ( why there isn't audio in my video )

@ycavan

The very important question: What about video driver? Is it just dummy SVGA or full featured 3D graphics card?

Without Direct3D, windows for me will be nearly useless.
[ZenFone 2 General] ycavan:
At the moment there is no direct 3d. The problem there is that my chroot doesn't seem to have proper access to all the hardware.

I've heard that the vmware driver is supposed to support d3d9 natively via gallium.

So... The next step would be to look at getting qemu-kvm compile for Android.

If any awesome Android developers out there are willing to do that, we might have a chance at full speed Windows with direct 3d. :)

I will say this... Epsxe was able to start up ps1 games with Pete's opengl driver via spice.

[ZenFone 2 General] 5h1v4u:
As per the fact that the windows 7 runs on VM inside the Android, it should ideally worsen the battery life. Windows 7 doesn't replace the android os. If someone is worried about battery should not try this. Nevertheless, it truly would be a great thing to witness.
