I have the tmobile variant and it has this bug , very annoying how could they screw this up twice and on the best looking screen display they have ever made
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avetny:
+1 but

Is not a brightness bug. This is our limit I guess due to the curved screen edges...

And is not that bad at all people.

Only for 10% lower????....pfff take it who cares.

But yeah it's surprised me too.....at least they fixed that stupid sharp edges.

If this screen isn't bright enough for someone, they need to go to a doctor immediately.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tigerz0202:
It's not that it's not bright enough lol, it when max brightness dims when going into a low lighted area even with auto brightness turned off.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamenramen:
I'd have bought the S6 if the screen brightness could be manually adjusted from 0 to 600 nits like any normal phone. The S6 is not as bright indoors as an iphone and apparently despite all the customizations available on Android, this is still not possible.

The Note 5, however, has a bright enough screen that max brightness is as bright as an iphone. The Note 5 has a clearly superior screen to the S6. It's got to be a different panel in terms of quality. Had they made a 128 gb Note 5 I would have thought long and hard about a Note 5.

Samsung stop overthinking this. Unlock the full range of autobrightness regardless of whether we are out in the sun or not.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p2flol:
It's pretty obnoxious that it adjusts the brightness by itself even if it's turned off, it's unbearable if you're outdoors since it dims the screen so much on it's own:\. Is there not a fix?

Hi everyone, I'm trying to make cwm for my Samsung galaxy core prime with spreadtrum sc8830 processor. As the main plan I use this guid. However I stucked on the unpacking recovery. I tried to use different utils and kitchens to repack it and try to use unpackbootimg to unpack it. But I always get the same problem:

Hi friends...

I just got my Fire Phone I think is amazing phone, I just updated to Fire OS 4.6.3 and installed the google service, playstore, etc

and everything works perfect, youtube, google maps, facebook, etc it's really amazing this device I like it

The only problem is that I can not use the Periscope App (that's the reason I bought the phone as a secondary device,

and I want it to watch streamings in this device)

When I want to watch a live streaming or a replay

always says "trying to connect" just 1 or 3 seconds playing and then stop saying "trying to connect"

And also I can stream my self , but I can not watch streamings from others

Somebody has periscope App running? can you please tell me what version of the app, and google services, you have?

I really appreciate your help!

I'm using

Fire OS: 4.6.3

Google Play Services version 7.8.99

Google Play Store version 5.7.10

Chema

:confused:
[Amazon Fire Phone] theprov:
I have the same problem. I wrote many many times to periscope's support and last time they said me they're still working on it (a month ago).

There's surely something with the streaming protocol, cause I've noticed that Twitch has exactly the same behavior.
[Amazon Fire Phone] MPbn80:
So if you take the periscope App .apk and upload it to amazon developer app checker here is what it says about the app:

Areas of app optimization

Amazon Phone and Tablet Devices

1 Caution(s)

Caution : Google Cloud Messaging Detected

Your APK includes a manifest declaration or an API invocation referring to Google Cloud Messaging.

No Issues Found

I certainly do not know what this means exactly, but maybe thats the reason the persicope app does not work properly.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DavideBaldini:
Disable cell radio – radiooptions binary

Parent thread here — This forum doesn't allow me to post where my post belongs.

I'm converting an old Galaxy Fame S6810p into a car dashboard navigator; I want to permanently disable the cell radio to save battery, particularly, the car's battery. Full info on my project here.

As indicated in the linked thread, the OP suggests to use the system command radiooptions to deactivate cell radio, and apparently, this works for them. But, my phone didn't come with the binary radiooptions installed by default, so I downloaded an ARM instance of it and placed under /system/bin/radiooptions, using the ADB shell.

Now, issuing the command "radiooptions 1" from an SSH connection effectively disables the cell radio, as indicated in the phone's status bar (no signal icon), but after just a few seconds the phone reconnects to the cell tower and the status bar shows again the usual signal strength icon. So the effect of radiooptions is only temporary for me.

Here's with Android 4.1.x.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sark666:
My nexus 7 2013 stopped connecting to wifi a week ago. Then realized bluetooth doesn't work. Wifi won't show any networks; it just fails to turn on and shows no mac address. I thought this must be a weird software issue that some config got mucked up. This happened with running stock 5.1.1 but then tried cm 12.1 to see if it will fix it. Before trying cm I did a factory reset (was stuck at the wifi signin screen) and I cleared the cache and data and cleared dalvik cache. So then I tried CM but unfortunately, this also happens. This has me pretty much convinced that it is a hardware issue and something is wrong with the wifi/bluetooth chip.

Just wanted to see what others thought. After the above, I can't see how this isn't a hardware issue. I was looking and motherboards aren't too expensive and it doesn't look too hard so I might try that.

Oh a weird thing, in this state it is causing an excessive battery drain even when off. It's been off for 8 hours at 100% charge and now is at 74%. So I'm keeping an eye on it to keep it charged until I get a motherboard replacement.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sark666:
Nothing? Wouldn't others think that this sounds like a hardware problem as the issue persisted across ROMs?

Should I be concerned during disassembly that the battery continues to have an excessive drain even when off?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] dikidera:
Do you have root? If you do, install Terminal Emulator, and type the following commands:

Then copy the /sdcard/kmsg.log file to your computer, open it up and search for WCNSS and WLAN and see what errors you get.

EDIT:Well this is dumb, you don't have internet so...you can't download Terminal Emulator. If you can, try to get the Terminal Emulator APK downloaded from your PC and transfer it to your phone.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sark666:
Thanks. I got TE transferred over. I left it for a bit and came back and cat /proc/dmsg was still running. I read that it has something to do with syslogd. I went through the logs but not much of interest. The only time WCNSS is mentioned is here:

I don't see anything that stands out. I was looking for a line confirming (or failing) to activate the wifi/bluetooth.

I attached dmesg but didn't see anything more that stood out, but I might be missing something.

Is there any other way to troubleshoot wifi/bluetooth?

EDIT: I found out adb logcat -d > log.txt seems to give the same as cat /proc/kmsg. I'm looking through it now, but I thought I'd attach that too.
[T-Mobile LG G4] djjefferson:
Now that Verizon is rolling out band 2 and 4 LTE, I thought I'd try an experiment. Some background: I have a Nexus 7 LTE (2013) with Verizon data-only SIM, and an LG G4 H811 on T-Mobile. The H811 is SIM/network unlocked. I attempted putting the Verizon SIM in the T-Mobile phone. Full signal with Verizon SIM, but no "4G LTE" indicator. Attempted entering Verizon APN settings, but they would not save. (Is this device specific, or is the SIM card rejecting the APN settings?) Tried simply entering Name "Verizon" and APN "vzwinternet" but omitted MNC and MCC settings, and now "4G LTE" indicator DOES show, but no internet connection. Under About Phone/Network I am connected to Verizon on my H811 and Mobile network type is "LTE" but still not actually connected. Any suggestions for entering the Verizon APN info on a T-Mobile device and making it stick? I'm a paying customer on both networks, so please no indignant comments about "why don't you just ditch T-Mobile and/or Verizon?" This is just to satisfy my curiosity.

FYI, the Nexus 7 LTE (2013) does not have CDMA radios, so I don't care that the H811 also does not. Shouldn't the SIM work for the LTE bands that the H811 does have? Doesn't Verizon have some deal-with-the-devil arrangement with the FCC regarding their LTE that they have to allow any device on their network?
[T-Mobile LG G4] GUGUITOMTG4:
Is your H811 rooted? if so you may want to try injecting the APN into the apns-config.xml file located system/etc
[T-Mobile LG G4] djjefferson:
Not rooted. Just found out how easy it is with unlocked bootloader. This might my next weekend project. Might also try unlocking band 13. I don't suppose anybody's tried that with the H811 yet?
[T-Mobile LG G4] MrSteelX:
You could open dialer. Type 277634#*# then touch unlock apn. Then you can get the g4 an changes stick
[T-Mobile LG G4] entropism:
Small issues for you:

1 - You might have data on 2 & 4 (eventually), but you won't have CDMA connectivity and you won't have VoLTE, so you'll never be able to actually make calls.

2 - Verizon has a device whitelist (and blacklist) in place, so they actually need to ALLOW your device on the network, vs. a traditional GSM based telecom who simply implements a blacklist. The reason you aren't able to connect to anything even though it shows as connected, is because they haven't allowed you on their network. Here's the ****ty (****tier) part: Unless you have a Nexus 6, iPhone or a verizon BRANDED phone, you won't be allowed on. They've been very clear about this for about a decade now, and they're not changing anytime soon.

Small edit: The APNs allow you to connect to the network in the first place, so the APN isn't the issue here. The whitelist is.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
These are the boards for the remaining 6.9 billion inhabitants of planet Earth, namely the ones not living in the USA. ;) :p

More specifically, these boards are dedicated to the International and/or Unbranded versions of the Note 3. Primarily the N9005(Snapdragon) and N900(Exynos), but also the Canadian N900W8, the Asian models and all other non-US models.

US models have separate boards because they are completely different devices with often completely different firmware. (right down to settings and options.)

All non-US models are variants of the primary models, the N9005 and N900. Aside from a few small, cosmetics software differences, they are all the same. So we've got one place for all of those.

But there's plenty of discussion regarding the US models here too, because the General, Q&A, Accessoires and Apps boards are for all Note 3 variants. :)

Hope that clears it up a bit. :)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] tareyza:
I have a question about whether a (relatively) minor issue on my device can allow me to get a warranty claim. So I discovered that using my device outdoors with bright sunlight, and with the device set at auto-brightness, there are a lot of strange lines on my screen. It looks like that part of the screen cannot go up to the brightness the rest of the screen is at, because a screen capture does not show the problem and it does not occur at lower brightness values either. I'll try and post a picture if it occurs again, it basically looks like strangely contorted line that is slightly less bright than the rest of the screen.

The problem is definitely noticable when outdoors on sunny days, and somewhat distracting.

So my question is, would I have the phone replaced or serviced due to this issue? Thanks in advance!
