[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jaytronics:
Truthfully, if the "Chinese" want into your phone. They will be in there. Think about it. Where are your phones made and programmed? Yup, that's right, China. Now, does the Chinese government have a history of providing that they can not be trusted? Absolutely. But, sorry to burst your bubble. Every government has thus far proven to be the same. And the United states and British governments are worse. So, try to hide whatever it is we want to hide. Doesn't matter. There are probably more back doors into your life regarding our electronic devices than we can imagine. And there are soon to be more when legislation passes a bill locking down firmware for WiFi routers and cellular routers. Of which, our phones have both. Will they be locked down to protect us? They say so. But, we all know that it will be so that the development community can not patch these back doors. Any way, I went off point a bit. I have been using Kingroot and SuperSuMe. A lot of us have been. Does it put us at a potential risk? Yup, potentially it does. But, I want my data to be backed up so that just in case. For now, the pros out weigh the potential cons. But, to each their own.

On a somewhat side note. I use to think similar to you on this subject. But, if the dev community offers a way to back up what the corporate community has failed to provide to us, so be it. If the XDA community has thus far not found any major fault with our Chinese friends software, then I am OK with it. Though, if we find out that this software has been doing potentially bad things, then I would hope that the development community would investigate and destroy them. By the way, if you have the means, keep sensitive data on a separate device. If possible. Maybe one that only connects via WiFi.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] HydraS4:
I did a little searching and found out that I have to use Safestrap and I'm limited to Safestrap compatible ROMs.

A few questions:

1. Is there a tutorial to guide me through this process?

2. What are the ROMs that I can change to?

3. What are the potential risks of changing ROMs?

I already have root and on 4.4.2. Greatly appreciate any help I can get. Getting bored of stock ROM and want to try out new ROMs.
[P3600 General] amir77a:
I configured my private wireless network, and the needed configuration for my cellular carrier web connection.

The issue is that whenever I am trying to surf to any webpage using my wireless LAN, my trinity always trying to connect to the cellular network, without using the available wireless connection. If I'm trying to cancel the conection process, it stopped but I can't surf anywhere.

Any ideas how to force the trinity to use the wireless network when available?

Thanks,

Amir.
[P3600 General] campberd:
In your connections configuration, create a new connection and do not add any entries to the Modem Section. Just configure the Proxy setting according to your ISP requirements. You have to change the connections configuration ach time you want a different connection to the internet. This you can do easily by creating different connctions for different situations.

Regards,

Randy
[P3600 General] NeilM:
It sounds as if your connection to the WLAN Router isn't being recognised.

1st thing to try is to go into the WLAn control panel, and in the Power tab, make sure the slider is fully to the left for max performance.

In the Network Cards CP, see if your router is listed, and whether Available or Unavailable.

Recheck the security settings- are you using WEP or WPA? Does your router have any Range Extender features- if so, turn them off.

Once you have a valid WLAN connection, the PPC will use that in preference to the GPRS, as long as you have WLAN conneced before opening PIE, and as long as there is no current GPRS activity when you open PIE (I find that if my Exchange Server is connecting via GPRS, then WLAN won't connect till the data session has completed)

For a quick way to force GPRS off, then on as needed, look for a great free app called Bandswitch. This allows you to force the P3600 to use GSM or 3G if needed to conserve power, and also to quickly enable/disable the various GPRS connections.

[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] BadanTv:
On the smartphone xperia M4 aqua (2312) on the second day after purchase longer included flashlight, he's flash. With no built-in or third-party programs. The menu Diagnosis - the flash will not work, too

Also, sometimes the camera does not start (error camera) who faced? It seems like Softovaya problem and wait for an update or a service center to bear?
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] mutonic:
didn't understand everything,

but if it can help you, I bought a previous m4 aqua (that i returned since) and after 1 week of using it, suddenly flashlight stopped working,

I used it sometime as a torchlight I don't know if it finally burnt it..

I guess this is a weakness of the phone now I see your post
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] PrinceRadebe:
2 Weeks in and the flashlight is not working, clearly this is a hardware fault and Sony needs to look into it.
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abechien:
Hi all, I have a weird issue that nobody else seems to be having (based on a forum post search). I recently bought 2 XT1528 Moto E's to set up for use with T-Mobile. They both came out of the box with 5.0.2 installed, and I was able to change the network settings to GSM and set the APN successfully to get it to use T-Mobile's network.

I then upgraded one of the phones to the 5.1 OTA update, but I started experiencing freezes on the 5.1 phone. This would occur intermittently, but essentially, the touchscreen would become unresponsive during use. If I pressed the power button once to lock the screen and once again to unlock it, the touchscreen would work again. It doesn't seem to be related to the phone lagging/becoming overburdened, because the background processes would continue to function even when the touchscreen is unresponsive (Youtube videos would continue to play smoothly, apps would continue to download and update, etc.). This would sometimes occur several times in several minutes (touchscreen becomes unresponsive after ~5 seconds of use), and sometimes it wouldn't occur for several hours.

Going back to the 5.0.2 device, this doesn't happen at all. I can't tell if this is a software or hardware issue, so I was wondering if anyone else had experience with this. If it's a software issue, is there a way to revert back to 5.0.2? It's also entirely possible that it's coincidental that the phone with the faulty hardware was the one that I upgraded to 5.1 (I don't recall if the 5.1 phone exhibited this behavior when it was on 5.0.2).

Has anyone else experienced this or something similar? I'm now a little scared to upgrade the other phone to 5.1 as well, in case this is a software issue. Thanks!
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
I have not heard of this issue occurring with this phone so perhaps yours has a defect. The 5.1 update released like a month or so ago and this issue hasn't been brought up before now. Any who..you will want to get a replacement at some point.

[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abechien:
Thanks for the feedback. I definitely am getting a replacement for the 5.1 phone (if it is a software issue, I need another 5.0.2 phone anyway). I ended up taking the leap and upgrading the working phone to 5.1, and no issues so far, so it definitely looks like a hardware defect at this point. I'll keep an eye on the newly upgraded phone and see if it exhibits these issues. Will report back in a few days.
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neo4uo:
I have also experience freeze ups with the touch screen, brand new phone latest software with 5.1

Bump, as I'm hoping someone has some thoughts on this.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r0tati0n:
Hi all. :)

I did the thermal compound mod on my G3 16gb, using Arctic Ceramic.

I did antutu tests:

1) 42k, CPU 55°c

2) 42k, CPU 58°C

3) 39k, CPU 62°C

All tests were done practically without delay in a row (just checking Trickster Mod for temps).

Everything was switched on, WiFi, Data, BT, brightness max.

Is the thermal mod working or not judged on the temps above?

What variant are you using? Still trying to figure out whether F400 has same internals as D855. Coz F460 dont, and i want to try it on my F400L
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ev_da_bacon:
The best way to know if it's working is to compare the temperatures you were getting before the thermal mod to the ones you're getting now. My temperatures were reaching into the 70s before the mod with the same benchmark test and now they're roughly where yours are, so I'd say that it is working.

In theory, it should be. The devices should not be different. But even in worst case, you can re-flash your own device with 4.4.4 from sammobile.com

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harpreet.s:
Hi all,

Writing this down to help. I was using ZF2 with no issues, working perfectly fine. Then I have to travel and bought second sim to save on roaming. Now when i used this sim , I started facing issues of sim not installed in the same slot1 where my original sim worked fine. My other sim was now in slot2 and working fine. So i got both sims out to check. Ok the issue was the difference in width of sim card. My original sim card is slightly more big then the new one. So the sim slot1 hangs to bulkier sim perfectly fine but my new sim card would not get hold in slot1. It would look like as sim is locked in slot but if you drag it back it will come out. Therfore with some bumps in your pocket phone will show no sim card installed. How i handled, i put a small piece of plastic between both sim slots which keep sims tight and working always.

Nutshell if you see sim not installed issue check that sim is perfectly fitted in slot.

Hi Guys,

I managed to downgrade from Lollipop 5.1.1 to kitkat 4.4.4 asia retail version via rsd lite(excluding gpt.bin and motoboot.img). However if i try to update the software to official stock lollipop, it says the device is already up to date. Can you'll tel me if il ever get the OTA updates now?

Hi ... this is purely an opinion which I think will be helpful, followed by a question.

1. I do not believe further OTA should be of an issue to you because I do not believe Moto X 2013 will be getting anymore!

Could I be misunderstanding something?

On a separate note I am trying to downgrade my own Moto X to 4.4.4 from 5.1.1. Have you noticed any issues as a result of leaving out gpt.bin and motoboot.img?

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RedOCtobyr:
I've never tried that. But maybe go G4 -> computer, then via iTunes, copy the video to the iPhone?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustinDulay:
The G4 would be the much better media device since all you need to do is drag-and-drop and watch as you please. Not mention the expandable storage. With iOS, you're pretty much stuck with iTunes sync and then the hassle of file conversions and so on.

As for games, iOS runs it better. My 5S blows the G4 out of the water. Doesn't matter having a high resolution if games need to run at lower settings and still doesn't feel as smooth.
