Hi.

So I have the american charger. But I need a european one.

Do these exist? Anyone knows where to buy one? I prefer high quality (official ones)...

Thank you
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
You should be able to get them directly from the OnePlus site. If not, any 2.1aH charger will be fine, but you must use the original cable.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benyben123:
Thanks so much!

The cable??? I thought the cable is nothing more than a dumb-wire. I thought the entire magic lies within the charger. I was wrong?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benyben123:
Also, sorry but what is a 2.1aH charger?

What I see written on the OPO charger is this:

5V-2A.

Thanks again!
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
It's a rating for the amount of current the charger can supply.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benyben123:
Cool, but what is 2.1 then? Sorry to nag. Will purchase one on Amazon if I get this right. Thanks again
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
As I said it's the amp/hour rating for the charger (the amount of current the charger can supply to the receiving battery). Seaching on Google would probably yield much better results than I can come up with.

‘LilMuslim’ is an Islamic smartphone app designed for Muslim kids and assists them in learning Arabic alphabets in a fun environment. It features a wonderful user interface with fun environment, cute characters and games through which learning Arabic becomes all faster and easier for them.

Download Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.quranreading.muslim.kids

Features

The app starts by displaying a house with the word ‘enter’ on its creaking door. Upon tapping it, you are taken to a screen where you choose between three different levels upon swiping across the screen. At first, you are only able to access the 1st level and the later levels are unlocked as you progress in the game. The aim in all the levels is the same: to identify the Arabic alphabets but the environment changes.

First level

The first level is very simple and easy. A little cute creature appears on the screen which asks you to spot a certain alphabet. The required alphabet also appears next to it. This way, it becomes very easy as the child just has to match it to the ones on the balloons. Above it, there are balloons dangling around and one of them contains the alphabet that it wants you to find. You have to burst the right balloon by tapping on it.

Second level

After clearing the first level, you can play the second level and in this level you are given a hint for the alphabet that you have to find. You have to then select that alphabet by tapping on it. In this level, the alphabets appear to revolve on a wheel. Hence, this game is also a great tool for the hand to eye coordination.

Third level

At third level, you have to find the alphabets hidden in a park and you are given no hint for the alphabet. The child has to inspect the park closely and tap the respective ones that he has to find.

Lilmuslim is a greatly helpful app as learning Arabic is the first step towards learning the Holy Quran. It is especially helpful for those parents who sometimes don’t get the time to play with their children, they can now give a smartphone to their children and they will be amused till the game ends.

[MENTION=4622571]mcosmin222[/MENTION]: They aren't encrypted *on the store*. That's no a feature, bug, or hack of the tool; that just "MS didn't bother to encrypt APPX". You can download (unencrypted!) APPX bundles straight from http://www.windowsphone.com/. Here's a random example, right off the page for the currently-first app in the spotlight list: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/s...f6-4262-a3c7-1b9565d5d7b4/xap?apptype=regular Despite the URL implying it's a XAP, it's actually a .appxbundle file. Open that as a ZIP archive, and you'll find a few (plaintext) XML files and a bunch of (unencrypted) .APPX files. Open one of *them* as a ZIP, and you'll find a bunch of plaintext metadata files and plaintext binaries.

I'm as anti-piracy as anybody on this forum, but MS isn't even *trying* to secure these files. You can download them, unauthenticated, unencrypted, straight off the world wide web.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msacco4:
Hey, I'm having a problem with my recovery after I installed the latest android version(also installed custom rom and elementalx kernel, but I don't think it has anything to do with it), when I try to flash recovery, it works basically, but whenever I start the phone it automatically goes into recovery, and the only way to fix it is to flash another boot.img file, it reboots fine when I do it, but then I don't have recovery only the dead red triangle thing(please don't give me the power+vol fix, that's not the solution I'm looking for, as its not a very useful recovery), I tried to flash few recoveries/other boot.img files, but none of them boot regulary + recovery is working..

I doubt its a problem with the boot.img I try to flash, because I tried so many and it didn't worked, anyway, I need someone to help me with that, thanks a lot.

Using android 5.1.1 btw.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wakamatsu:
Be specific in detailing what you've done and the results. The way you're describing things leads me to think that you're not really clear on what you're doing.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msacco4:
To shorten it, I have 2 booting options, the first one is regular booting with the bad recovery(red triangle), the second one is working recovery, but when I boot it automatically goes to the recovery after the google logo screen, and I can't get past that, tried many recoveries versions, but nothing worked. And yeah its been more than a year since I last touched it, so I don't remember everything as I used to.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wakamatsu:
Again, your description is extremely vague and is telling re: your knowledge. Provide file names, versions, commands used, logs, error messages, etc.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msacco4:
File names of what? boot.img? I'm using flashtool if that's what you mean by commands used, logs of what? there are no error messages, only the red triangle, which I assume you know what I'm talking about, if you mean Android version, as I wrote before, 5.1.1, if you mean recovery version, tried many versions, so I don't think it has anything to do with it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ben36:
Are you unrooted and stock rom but just trying to install a custom recovery?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Telyx:
Sounds to me like the recovery is being flashed to the boot partition instead of the recovery partition, so when you try to boot normally it boots the recovery and when you try to boot to recovery there isn't anything there.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wakamatsu:
You should not be flashing your phone because you have absolutely no idea what you're doing or trying to do.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ben36:
+1 to this

Uninstall the toolkit and go read a fastboot guide
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msacco4:
Installed the old and beautiful 4.4 android again, flashed recovery and everything else with no problems, and everything works great, thanks for the fastboot guide tips.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] Rubenqben:
Hi,

I read few threads about build quality of the Samsung Note 4 but mostly I fount speculations and opinions not supported with facts. I am mechanical engineer and I like to think that I know few thinks about processes that are being used in modern industry.

I would like to focus on metal finish which was a decision maker to upgrade from Note 3.

When I first received my new Note 4, first think I did was not turning it on, but inspecting quality of the new body. After few minutes I already knew that there will be problems. I wasn't mistaken...

Lets sort one think up, because there was a big discussion about it in previous threads. Note 4 is not made out of metal. Main body of the smartphone is made purely out of plastic. To better understand it, remove back cover and remove S-pen. This Grayish plastic you see everywhere is actually the main frame of the smartphone. Visible metal sides of the phone as well, are plastic. Metal finish is only metallic coating. There are few processes that allow to cover plastic with metal and most generally it is called metallization. You may ask - so what? Important that it is looking and feeling good... I would completely agree with you if not for the fact that coating is ridiculously thin. I am very careful with my Note 4, but I don't use any covers and additional protection for device. After only few months after using my smartphone I saw first negative signs such as flaking off black metallic paint where the USB receptacle is. Once it stars it gets only worse. later on you have to be even more careful for flaking will continue even when you scratch it lightly with the nail. I would like to point as well, that under this black metallic paint there is plastic. If you expected metal you will be disappointed. Actual silver chamfers are a little bit thicker - around 0,2+-0,05mm. I am not a fan of Iphone but I appreciate real metal body. It bothers me when I see price of the device. I would expect to see real premium device instead of constant covering up with better materials plastic "Samsung madness". Don't think than I am a Samsung hater, because its completely opposite. I didn't change brand since Samsung Galaxy S, and I had all smartphones from Note series.

After Note 3 I'm disappointed by note 4. At least N3 wasn't pretending anything. Not only from build quality newest note is not a good successor of good old note 3 but from software point of view as well but that is topic for other thread.

I covered only one aspect of poor quality of the phone. There are more but to reduce the length of the post I wont describe them. I will mention only at the end that if you are looking for robust made phone this is not what you should look for. I have a feeling that device is made like this to look like **** after warranty period ends.

Peace

Rbn
[Galaxy Note 4 General] POLO_i780:
The Note 4 is metal, here is a metal test of the frame:

https://youtu.be/d-7Yw_XXviI

Go spew your nonsense somewhere else.

EDIT:

The black sides of my Note 4 are fine, no flacking, the USB and area surrounding it are also still fine. I have had my Note 4 since launch (got it 2days early). Used it for 8months with no cover, only recently put a cover as I wanted it to fee thicker and more substantial in hand and to protect it as I do drop it a lot.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mark0326:
Is he touching on the metallic coated chamfer or the actual side of the phone?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Rubenqben:
Are you serious with this youtube clip, or it is a joke? I am not sure... He is touching 3cm apart of each other on metallic chamfer which I already said is metallic (if you would read carefully) thickens of the metal he check resistance of i approximately 0,2mm as I as well said before. if he would touch on left and right side there would be no conduction because chamfer are separated in exactly 4 individual points.

Your comment has no sens what so ever apart of some strange attitude.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] POLO_i780:
He touched both, 1st the chamfered side and then the side.

He did the video in response to another person who was claiming the Note 4 isn't metal, when in actual fact it is.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Rubenqben:
I see words them self do not convince you so pictures will have to (self made).

Few words of commentary if you do not understand. picture ***23 show where the coating ends (probably for antenna connection reasons).

Picture ***43 shows that in fact there is a conductivity, therefore metallic surface (like on youtube video you posted)

On picture ***53 you can clearly see that there is infinite resistance = no metallic connection

If you still do not believe on the picture ***22 you can see that housing is in fact non conductive = non metallic

Stop your nonsense argument please.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] POLO_i780:
All you have proved is that there are parts of the frame that are not metal e.g. the USB area, where the antennas are and may I add where the 3.5mm jack is, this is party to be expected as even with my iPad these areas in particular will have some sort of plastic within.

The frame is mostly metal. Its winter down here and the frame gets icy cold to the touch vs. the back cover plastic and front glass.

You haven't really made any point, the Note 4 at the end of the day is a well built premium phone, in my experience, Samsung have ensured the areas that shouldn't be metal aren't you can actually see them e.g. around USB port is a tiny bump, same with where the antennas are.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] lordoftheriffs:
People are not satisfied with anything nowadays...
[Galaxy Note 4 General] POLO_i780:
Indeed.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] PieOfJustice:
I can't quite believe you guys are fighting over a mostly plastic phone. I agree with the first poster and what he has posted makes sense. I've also taken my note 4 apart and you can clearly tell it is mostly plastic with the exception being the coated chamfer which is coated with metal then painted and polished, as well as the screws. Ignoring the logic board which contains many elements your left with the screen and glass covering. To be short the phone is mostly plastic and not mostly metal like the users are trying to argue.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mark0326:
Plastic is very inefficient at blocking radio signals, I'm happy.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] lordoftheriffs:
If it was all metal, someone would say that it is very heavy and signal is poor. If it was glass, people would say it is fragile and a fingerprint magnet. I believe our phone is an ideal blend of premium and other features. I personally love the faux leather back, it is much more robust than a real leathet or gloss plastic.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] POLO_i780:
Exactly. This phone is very well built and blend of materials very well thought-out.

The faux leather is brilliant, mine still looks as good as new since launch, while many LG G4 Leather Back owners already have wear and tear within weeks of owning the phone.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Idan73:
While I do think that this is very well designed phone, op is right in his claim that there's not a lot of metal for someone who expected at least outer frame to be aluminum. He is right that under black metallic Paint is only white plastic.

Actually it is amazing how well they have managed to fuse aluminum chamfer, and only that (this is best visible when taking pen out and looking at the cross section). The supposed antenna breaks, on top and bottom, are purely for decoration, and to fool the users into thinking that sections are solid metal and evocative of iPhone of yesteryear that had those cutouts for a reason.

Altogether, there's probably not much more than 5 grams of aluminum on the whole frame. If even that much?

Im just glad that the paint finish on this phone is much more durable than s4 and s5, where even sweat would cause peeling of the fake chrome coating,provided you don't drop phone (it is true that once metallic paints start peeling on certain section, the process accelerates.

All that said, I do agree with polo_i780 last post absolutely.

Note 4 ?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Koguchi9:
To the op, are you sure your note 4 is not a fake? I mean no disrespect just that mine has been dropped and such without a case, has lots of scratches all around and it doesn't flake as you say. I just tried scratching it with my nails and.... nothing.

If it does indeed have an insanely thin coating then no way would the frame get icy cold as the other poster said (mine does this).

My note 3 never felt like this. Also you're wrong the note 3 did pretend to be something. A leather notebook with the rear cover. But I actually preferred that cover instead of this one lol.

Either way no company is going to please everyone.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Batfink33:
I kind of agree with the original poster. There's something "missing" in build quality on the N4, it just doesn't feel as premium as the metal flagships or even the S6. I think it's almost a half and half like Samsung were half way through redesigning their handsets the N4 is the result. I'm not saying it feels cheap or it isn't a nice design, I just don't think it feels like a full premium design.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] macmobile:
Disagree. This phone is designed very well. I don't care for metal.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] jazzmachine:
The OP's analysis perfectly describes the very well known problem of the N4's "metal" sides getting very scratched up due solely to the use of certain cases. If you've just recently picked up an N4, search the forum for "scratched metal" and you'll see no shortage of threads where the issue is mentioned (my search for topics with those terms from the main page of the N4 forum yielded 84 results).

[MENTION=6812558]Rubenqben[/MENTION] if the edges have become annoyingly scratched, there's a DIY fix that also protects the edges from future damage involving metal polish. Very detailed instructions w/ pics can be found via search, IIRC there have been a few guides in the "General" subforum. I've done this to my device that's now about 7 months old and the edges are even shinier than they were before removing the plastic from the phone ;) (it should be noted that using metal polish on the edges lightens the metal color a few "shades", likely dependent on the specific product that you use... not in a bad way IMO, I actually think that mine looks better with the "Blue Magic Metal Polish Cream" from Amazon).

Now should it be necessary to use potentially damaging chemicals on a $$$ phone so that the edges don't get scratched up by a protective case? :rolleyes:

I'm curious what other build quality issues you've discovered that were alluded to in the OP? I've been happy with my N4 overall, but I've definitely encountered some issues that seem like they can only be traced back to hardware design flaws... I'm no engineer though so I'm interested in your other findings :good:
[Galaxy Note 4 General] madchainsawer:
My note 4 is fine its metal and the paint doesnt chip so did you buy a knock off phone.
