[Sony Xperia M5] E90 Commie:
I really hope that Sony DOESN'T label the C5 Ultra as a "successor" since it is a downgrade CPU wise while offering the same amount of RAM and storage as the existing model. As a lowend phablet, it is quite decent, though.

The Huawei P8 Max is interesting but the lack of developer support (root, ROM) hold me back. Buying a device with a modified 5.0.2 without any reported updates to 5.1.x and 5.2/M sounds like a bad idea even if it is a nice device in other aspects.

I have not tried the P8 Max but the P8 feels great from a quality standpoint. If Huawei would cooperate with XDA like Sony does, it would be a really great option.

Edit: I hope Sony will introduce a Z5 Tablet Compact with a Snapdragon 820. If they are unwilling to give us a new Ultra, then a Z5 TC would be great.
[Sony Xperia M5] Tuyencon:
Hope Z5 Ultra had the same design :D
[Sony Xperia M5] teddy74eva:
They are official now, if only C5 Ultra had better specs... ;)
[Sony Xperia M5] Silverdace:
M5 looks good

I'm liking the M5, looks like it's a Z3+ without the firedragon in it. Probably what the Z3+ should have been.

I've shifted my size wants with regard to phones, went 3.7", 4.3", 4.6", 5.2", 5.5", 5.6", 5.2" and now I want a 5", just like M5 :)

Apart from the Mediatek chip, the M5 ticks all the boxes. And given I don't game on phone the weaker GPU in the X10 isn't a factor. It seems far more efficient than the SD810.

I'd say Sony have canned the Z3+ production and tweaked slightly to make the M5.

I guess this means the Z5 will have an SD820 in it and possibly a 5.5" screen?
[Sony Xperia M5] FajarMF28:
Sounds interesting, but disappointed with the M5 processor (mediatek's, right?) :(
[Sony Xperia M5] dondavis007:
Mediatek ain't a bad chip, I've had a MX4 and I rather liked it.

Sent from a mobile gadget.
[Sony Xperia M5] aalupatti:
I dont it matters as long we have a lag free device.

Dont know if sony will be proactive with bootloader unlock and may be a playstore version
[Sony Xperia M5] miguelAr52:
sd810 and perhaps 820 overheating, sd615 has problems too, at this time i think mediatek is safer
[Sony Xperia M5] RandomUser017:
I just came from Russia (vacation) and found the M5 Aqua... Why didn't I buy it in Russia where it already got released :/. * waiting for release in Germany *

But sounds great. 2.0 GHz Processor, nice Camera and stuff. But what custom ROMs/kernels possibilities does this phone have?
[Sony Xperia M5] boylush:
At most a kernel like Tangerine thats all.

No CustomROM, modded Stock ROMs possible, root possible.

And yea, that's the end, really boring phone cos MediaTek has no opensource for External and Hardware
[Sony Xperia M5] muslumcu46:
perfect
[Sony Xperia M5] crisaegrim:
Maybe the team behind the stock firmware in Sony give us a hand in this case.

They know what are they facing if they changed the processor.

Havent read if its going to have the clean AOSP with sony apps (this would be the best scenario for us)
[Sony Xperia M5] optionalmgrr.la:
No unlocked bootloader, no availability in the US and western countries (i.e. no dev)

Why are we still having a dedicated forum on xda?? :confused:
[Sony Xperia M5] RandomUser017:
It has been delayed. It might still come to Europe.
[Sony Xperia M5] optionalmgrr.la:
I certainly hope so. but still, no unlocked bootloader?

in a seriousness, this model attrracts me more than than z5 because of the price/performance, but I also like custom rom like cyanogenmod and an active community very much :D
[Sony Xperia M5] RandomUser017:
You can unlock any Sony device. M5 aswell. (I think)
[Sony Xperia M5] boylush:
MTK devices have not really received a proper way to unlock, but there are ways i guess.

M5 is really too expensive and not worth on my carrier, it's selling at $418 SGD on a Combo 2 Student Plan $38 per mo. I could top up $100 more and get a Z series phone so what's the point of getting this phone.

Other carriers offer at $200+ for the device on a $42 per mo plan and Z series cost about $400-$500. Guess i won't be getting M5, no open source code is even more a minus

No MTK Source = no custom ROM.
[Sony Xperia M5] optionalmgrr.la:
I think Sony is obligated under the GPL to release the sources?

Anyway, in a month or so the picture will be clear. I strolled across the M4 forums, and there's zero to none original development there. Hope M5 will have a better fate.
[Sony Xperia M5] boylush:
Sony releases Kernel source as per GPL license. What we need for custom ROMs is External and Hardware sources for Mediatek, or else we cannot compile a ROM.

NO EXTERNAL/HARDWARE SOURCE = NO CUSTOM ROMS

With Kernel Source what we can do is AT MOST overclocking, optimisations for kernel. Even so, Sony is not obliged to let you unlock your Bootloader unlike other Qualcomm phones as seen in C4, E4 (dual) etc.

As for M4a, most devs just successfully brought up the first few 64bit Snapdragon processor powered phones, so custom ROMs should come in a few months (that phone has crap specs so really, don't bother, just go for a flagship)
[Sony Xperia M5] optionalmgrr.la:
That is a pity if no custom ROM for M5. :(
[Sony Xperia M5] shun_min14@hotmail.com:
i just notice the downside to Mediatek is the lack of quickcharge. But i did come across they are releasing their version of quickcharge soon

Hello, I have an LG Leon LTE on MetroPCS. I'm able to tether to my Windows PC via using PDAnet software, however, anyone have a method to tether unlimited to Chromebook? PDAnet isn't built for Chromebook so I'm out of options. There isn't any block screen when I try to tether, it just goes slow as hell, about 0.10 mpbs.

[G4 Themes and Apps] Swizzle82:
This is a work in progress for enabling smart screen!!

I've only tested this on the H811 so far. I know there aren't too many with an unlocked bootloader so please try at your own risk.

So far I have smart screen enabled under settings. You can check and uncheck it to activate. The issue I'm running into is it doesn't actually keep.the screen on. You'll get the face detecting notification in the status bar but the screen still times out. I would like any help in this if anyone has any to offer. I've tried installing the wise screen apk from the VZW G4, but I get force closes. The one from my gpad 8.0 is the same app and it also force closes. This one is from my Gpad 7.0 and I don't know for sure if it's the reason it doesn't work even though it installs and doesn't fc. My gpad is still on kitkat so there are no associated libs. I'm in the process of requesting the files from a G3 running LP to see if it makes a difference.. Just waiting on someone to send them.

So for now this is what I have..

Install the wise screen apk into system/priv-app and set permissions rw-r-r

Move lge framework-res to the system before moving it to the framework folder to avoid any fc issues. Set permissions rw-r-r before moving into system/framework/lge framework-res.

After doing so reboot

Upon reboot go to system/settings/display and scroll almost all the way to the bottom check smart screen. Test it out and rack your brain, let's see if we can get this fully functional.
[G4 Themes and Apps] Swizzle82:
So from my logs I'm seeing on the gpad when the notification comes up wise screen calls to the camera and the cameraa opens for face detection. On the G4 it does not call to the camera and/or the camera isn't responding to it. Smart lock will open the camera if you have facial recognition on. So we know the camera will/should respond when called. I'm thinking that there is something wrong with the odex file. The wisescreen apk from the Gpad 7 have a classes.dex inside and the one for the gpad 8 and vzw G4 do not. I don't know if it is irrelevant because the Gpad 8 works and the G4 doesn't.
[G4 Themes and Apps] Swizzle82:
If someone from Vzw wants to send me their lge res apk so we can test it on theirs since it's the only model.in which wise screen is already installed(not active)
[G4 Themes and Apps] Swizzle82:
Okay, so it is calling the camera. The thing is though, Lg upped the resolution on the front camera and every version of smart screen is looking for a smaller resolution than available so it doesn't open.. "Can not find". Might have to edit the resolution capabilities in smart screen, but I don't know about all that. Just brainstorming here.
[G4 Themes and Apps] Swizzle82:
Okay, well I've tried 3 different face detecting apps and none of them work on the G4. It seems none of them can tie into the camera. Currently I'm at a stalemate.
[G4 Themes and Apps] Swizzle82:
Making slight progress. Was able to give it it's own sub category, but still not working..
[G4 Themes and Apps] Nicolas Ifc:

Got one in early july from samsung directly the model number is ET-N910VMKEVZW it shows as coming soon now.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deltatom:
Just went through the same thing. Samsung's help was just about worthless. I was continually told Samsung doesn't sell phones directly. Finally went through the business department. Because the phone was shown on their site but not available as of 8-7-15, the business rep first tried calling the warehouse to see if anyone knew if it would be available in the future. He got no definite answer. He was going to send an email to corporate and let me know when he received a reply. I was told it may take a week for an answer. The issue may be that because the Note 5 was soon coming they may not restock. My problem is that from I can see from Note 5 leaks, the phone may not have the features I want, ie. removable battery and sd card. Because I like my Note 4 and it has a verifiable good root for the developers edition, I was going in that direction. Two months ago, I had a chance to buy the de phone from Samsung. I was certain that the team at xda would get root and held off. Boy am I sorry for not buying when it was available. Well, we can only hope that our team here will get this working on our retail versions.

High readability, time morphing animation, colors customisation, wave animation, weather, daily steps counter, unread email & messages, screen on duration, 3 ambient modes, 12/24hr format, etc...

Supports square & round watches﻿

[Moto 360] NovaFox238:
Wow that looks great....! But how would the battery react to such a good animated face? D:
[Moto 360] Thomas Hemetri:
Many options are here to allow you to tweek it to your needs. Some of them are more heavy for the battery.

For example, animation are optional, and even when activated, there are 2 modes: fast & slow (slow allows you to keep the animations with less battery consumption: slow refresh rate)﻿
[Moto 360] henderjr:
Neat face! I just bought it! So far it's showing zero for my steps. Thoughts on that? A different face I have displays my steps fine. Thanks!

Edit: I rebooted my phone and no steps. I then enabled Google Fit and its showing my steps. I use the jawbone up app for my steps but don't think it should hurt much to also use Google fit.

Is the battery meter for the watch or the phone. Can you add both or have an option to display both?

Step Counter

Hi,

If I choose Step Counter as one of the display options, I get a "There was a problem with Google Play services" (translated from danish).

Everything else is working, other watch faces (Ticker for example) show steps without problems.

/Roy
[Moto 360] Thomas Hemetri:
Hi

This is kind of weird, because Google Play Services is a based library of your mobile. Try to reboot your mobile, and if it persists, check if you have the latest update (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.gms&hl=fr)
[Moto 360] ruggs1234:
Looks good, but 2 questions....

Can I set my location manually (fixed) for the weather? I dont run GPS unless I need it.

And will the sms counter work if I use Wear Messenger. I block the notifications from the built-in messeging app on my Sony Z1 running KitKat.

Just for the record I would also like both watch and mobile battery levels displayed on the watchface. But the watchface could look a little odd with one battery level in one of the circles and the other listed outside seperately. I currently use Weather Watchface which has everything I need...except an unread sms counter!

If you are sure the batteries are okay, there could be something wrong with the phone's mainboard.

It's is possible that the board in your phone is malfunctioning. Unfortunately, I think trying the batteries in another phone or having them tested may be the only way to know for sure.

I still get good use out of my HTC Incredible running CM7, but old as it is, it will receive no patches for the recent publicized Stagefright vulnerability. To protect my device and home network, I rebuilt CM7 for the Incredible with the following patches included:

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_frameworks_av/commit/743caa87a8dd393f96c2d3daeaa557d0a60bf252

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_frameworks_av/commit/96bd564fc55671bd881caf94584da58b5dfd4bf7

(I didn't include the other three:

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_frameworks_av/commit/9f65a14df51a7fde1eae2819b93654b1bee73da1

because those three fix memory problems in code that was added to libstagefright in versions of Android later than Gingerbread.)

I thought I would share it in case anyone else is still using their dinc and wanted to protect themselves from the stagefright problem.
