UMA works by encapsulating GSM messages into IP and sending that to a modified network over wifi or bluetooth, remember this when asking about porting UMA as it rely's on GSM stack interactions that are outside of the normal modding that goes on here i'd also like to say i'll not be taking part in any of the playing (i've signed NDA's and its my livlyhood on the line) for the previous reasons i cannot mention which vendors handsets i'm testing now.

Hi

I use my browser pretty much. I have always used Chrome and it's nice, but it sucks the battery.

What other browser would you recommend? It should still support things like video player and such. Also, any browsers where it's possible to set a dark theme? Cause I got Amoled screen.

Thanks in advance

Boat Browser and Lightning Browser

Hi, I think you will like these two browsers for saving battery

Boat Browser

- Night mode: Everything becomes darker (not black and white) Good for searching and reading online.

- Block images

- Rendering mode: Inverted

- Dark theme

Lightning Browser

- Reader mode: extracts and shows you only text in a easy to read mode with the option to have a dark background

- Block images

- Rendering mode: Inverted

- Rendering mode: Inverted grayscale

- Dark theme

I like both browsers. It just happens that these two are also good for battery saving :good:

I don't watch much video through my broswer but these should be able to handle most online formats

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Twisted Tom:
Need someone with tons of knowledge here to help me out :)

I'm currently dealing with a Nexus 6, unrooted, stock.

The phone was dropped and the screen was destroyed. During the drop something internally must have been damaged as the phone starts the At&t music up and resets immediately and will keep looping until the power dies or I put it into the fastboot screen to shut it up, in which the phone stays on that screen. (or at least theres where im assuming its going)

The thing is, my computer recognizes the phone as an android device and shows the android device bootloader on my device manager on my cpu. Every time I try to get into recovery (or at least how I recall doing it without a screen to assist) the phone just restarts to the at&t music once again...

Is there any hope here for retrieving my data on this thing? I figured I could do something with adb although im not too savvy with it. Just assuming since the computer does recognize the device in some way, it is possible hopefully.

Btw I dont think debugging is on atm.

Any help would be super appreciated. Even willing to donate to anyone that may be able to assist me in this.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graydiggy:
If and when Mobiletechvideos gets back up and running, they can more than likely save the entire device and if not at least get your data. But unfortunately because of the high demand for their services, they have gone into a temporary work hold until all current orders are complete. Either way, I would try to get ahold of them and see if they can assist or can point you in the right direction.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
If it is unrooted with stock recovery and not booting up to android, there will be no easy way to get your data off.

It is possible, though very unreliable and extremely difficult to unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery, create an image of the data partition and scan that on a computer with data recovery software, but that really isn't worth doing.

Hello,

I tried to search the threads, but i did nit find the information i was looking for, if i did miss this somewhere please point me toward the correct thread and excuse me for this thread.

I was on AOSIP and untill the latest update i was golden, but since the latest update my 4g data transfer speeds are terrible, i litterally see the pictures build as i was the case on old dial-up connections.

I formatted the phone and cleanflashed chroma because i used that before with no problems, but also there is have the slow 4g speeds. i tried resetting my apn settings but to no avail.

I'm on the dutch t-mobile network and thought that the problem is because of the wifi calling.

All data on 4g is slow Streaming music, video, webbrowsing....... the lot.

am i the only one and do i need to RMA my phone or is it somethin known and can somebody help me fix this.

thanks in advance
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
sounds like the issue is with your local provider, not your actual phone. if your local network has many people on it, it will reduce speeds. the more people, the slower speeds will be.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pauwie:
thank you for your quick reply, but i ned to add, i tested it next to someone on the same network at the same locations, and for a few days it is only my phone that is extremely slow.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
then check your apn. you can be using an older apn, or it might not bd properly entered. that can cause reduced speeds as well.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pauwie:
tried that too...no dice
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
have you googled to check if there are any alternative apn setting for your carrier that you can use? i use tmobile in the states, and they have 4 different apns that i can use. in 3 of them, i get slower speeds, on thd one that i use, i get faster speeds.

'will try that one, received new apn settings from customer service today, but trying another cant hurt
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:

Mine slow in Houston on Verizon. Don't know if throttled but shouldn't be. APN #s on Google different from what on stock Nexus 6. :cool:
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graydiggy:
Well since the release of 5.1.1, band 12 has been opened up on T-Mobile. Chances are that you are on it now instead of the typical band 4.band 12 is slower but way more reliable and gets through buildings better than 4.

For instance, on 4 I was able to easily get up to 60mbps, but on band 12 I can't break 20. So I would say it's the carrier instead of your device.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pauwie:
thanks for all the tips guys, but no succes, there are no other apn's and if it is related to the 12 band in stead of the 4, the probably don't support that here in the Netherlands yet.

will try to find an older build and hope it is fixed then.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] divadkha:
I've been noticing slower than usual LTE speeds lately on my Nexus 6. I'd normally get 45+ Mbps but Speedtest app has been showing 15. What fixed it for me was going into the APN settings and changing the APN protocol to include IPv4. For me, without IPv4 would give Spotify issues. I recently flashed the System image which probably changed it back to IPv6 only (which is the default for some reason). As soon as I did this my speed went back up from 15 to 45. Switching the protocol between IPv4 and IPv6 was consistently affecting my LTE speed. Setting it to IPv4/IPv6 works as well.

[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] notiflux:
It's definitely not a flagship, but it's worth it. For ~180$ you get a phone with 1,2 GHz quad core CPU, 1gb of RAM, a 720p display and Android 5.0.2 (soon 5.1.1/Android M). It depends on what you want. If you want a phone especially for gaming (high graphics games like modern combat) then this phone is not for you. If you just want a smoothly running phone that does his job well and some middle- to low graphics games (like Geometry Dash, Angry birds, need for speed) are playable (without lags), this phone is definitely worth taking a look at.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] totalnoob34:
You should consider something else as well. This is an exceptional phone for its price, but it has 1 GB of ram only, which is a pity.

Maybe wait for Moto G 2015, which may be more optimised at the same price.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] factorydefault000:
thanks for your reply i herd moto g 2015 was out soon but nobody can say what date heard it would be this month or December my old phone has 700mb ram so i guess it would be an improvement but not sure if i should hold out to see if the moto g comes out this year or next or pay the £100 for this version

[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wolfcity:
Battery life of the Moto G 2014 is absoloutely ok so far,not outstanding but it brings you over the day,other phones can do not much more.You can extend the battery life by installing a custom rom/kernel or doing some tweaks.

It works even good on lollipop. I´m really satisfied with it just when it comes to multitasking you realise that 1 GB RAM is not enough and you have to live with reloading apps etc.

No problem listening music and surfing the internet but you can´t hande 4 or 5 apps at the same time. But for the price you don´t get anything better, that´s for sure.

btw,the Moto G 2015 should come out in august/september but as far as I have heard the stats have not changed greatly and RAM would be 1 GB again when leaked infos are true.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] factorydefault000:

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr12volt1338:
I have had my Note 4 for a few months. Been using the same 32GB card since my Tbolt in all phones since. Friday I received a 64GB card to start using. I put the card in it read it just fine with no issues. Transferred pictures and music via PC with no issue. Saturday I took a bunch of videos and photos. A few hours later I went to review them and they are not loading. They are saved as jpeg and MP4 respectively. I can see them in the DCIM folder in quickpic, gallery and ES but none of them will play or open. Pictures said load failed and videos say sorry unable to play video. There are no thumbnail previews or anything. I can not play them on PC either. I tried changing extensions but it did no good. Tried a few photos and videos since then and for some reason those seem to be working fine... The device and PC show the total space supposed to be used by these files so it seems to have kept all that info.

After all of this I have found out the card is a fake Samsung and I am returning it for a refund so I can buy a good one. But I would LOVE some ideas on how to get these photos and videos restored. I have tried cardrecovery but it does not seem to be working....

Again these are not deleted they are still in the DCIM folder but they will not open.

MODS. If there is a general Android area this may get more/better responses in I am good with it being moved. I just need some ideas and thoughts as the event these videos were taken was very cool and I would love to get them working somehow.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nahoku:
More probably the files are corrupted. What comes to mind for me is that you download all the files to your PC/Mac so you can have them safe in case you can somehow find a way to recover them and make them work. For the jpegs, I don't know what you can try, but for the mp4's, you might try to run them through handbrake to see if it can somehow process them and make a copy. Or, you might try mkvmerge GUI and convert them to a mkv file (you can always convert back in handbrake). Either way, if either of these programs can even open them, you might be able to get a playable copy.

Too bad about getting a fake Samsung. Did you buy it on ebay? When you get your "real" one (buy it from a reputable store like Amazon), format the card in the phone rather than on a PC/Mac. The phone will thank you for it!

Good luck!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr12volt1338:
I bought it from Amazon. The seller was newer and had good ratings. I contacted Amazon and they are making it right. Seller gave me a prepaid label and it is going back. Already ordered and received a new 64GB Sandisk. Formatted in phone and ready to roll.

It's really crazy because I am transferring all the bad files and it shows as 3.38GB total and it is taking a while to transfer. I hope one of the programs you mentioned can do something with them.

Create a file on your desktop computer named 'silent.wav'. (You can do this by right-clicking on your desktop, and selecting "new" and then 'Winamp Media File' if you have Winamp installed, or just choose something else like a text file and rename it to the .wav file extension). This will create a nice and empty 0-byte file which won't gobble up any space.

Synchronize to your device. Copy this file to the \windows\rings folder on your device.

Now add the number that you don't want to answer to your contacts list, and select silent.wav as the ringer.

How can I lock my phone if I decide to lock it, while the self-locking stuff is disabled?

I prefer to keep my phone unlocked. So I put a 30 minute timer to prevent the self-locking, and disable the option of "immediately lock when power button is pressed."

But if I get stopped by the police I want to lock the phone immediately. Any way to do that? Currently I'd have to hold the power button, and select restart or power off, then confirm it, and that can be awkward if you are running away.

I never tested it that way to be certain. But I was using "Screen Off and Lock" on my last phone, because the power button was getting flaky. So I used the SO&L shortcut as a substitute power button to turn the phone off. Then I'd wake it up with the Home button.

I believe SO&L would lock it immediately, even if normally it would not lock right away if I had used the power button.

Maybe give it a shot?
