[General Questions and Answers] NemboSix:
Note: that by doing thing described below you will lose all of your data saved on internal storage.

Advice: do not root your phone again if you dont want to lose warranty.

*

First try going to recovery mode. You can do this by holding volume up+home button+power off button (hold until this shows up: http://www.android.gs/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Samsung-Galaxy-S3-Recovery-Mode-279x340.png )

Then search for factory reset/data wipe or something similar (scroll using vol up and vol down button, power off button is used as Confirm button ) confirm your selection and when the proccess completes then reboot your device by selecting reboot device. Wait and see if it works. If it doesnt then follos this thread: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/general/fix-s3-to-factory-unroot-stock-recovery-t2323847 if anything is unclear feel free to ask[emoji1]

Well I have a Samsung Galaxy s4, I've rooted it since I've got it, however I cannot afford to OTA update my phone since it's been rooted. But now I've unrooted it via "SuperSU one click unroot" but it still gives me that message "your device has been modified, you cannot update your software" although I am unrooted. But maybe it's still there? I don't know. So afterwards I came to a near by Samsung Help Center, but they said that I'm pretty much doomed (that I can no longer update my software anymore) although I believe that there's still another way to update my s4. But I don't know how, I've tried reading other people's solutions, however I'm doubting that I'll never get it since it's not that clear. So please tell me that there's still another way to update my software via "not OTA" but can still update my s4 to the latest os. If yes, then how?

[Xperia Z3v General] GigaSPX:
The Z4v is confirmed to be on its way to release on September 3rd. The first week has a promotional sale going on from what I see for three different people.

The full price of the phone is $599, but it will go on sale for $499 with $100 in Google play store credit.

For us Z3v owners, we can trade it in to knock off $220 to bring the price down to $379.

If you have any other phones, you can trade it in up to $70 in knocking it off.

I really love my Z3v, but seeing that Verizon has really abandoned it, it's no wonder why Verizon is now offering the Z4v. The YouTuber who has the phone confirmed the date, and he also discussed he hasn't had any issues with overheating on the SD810. I'm more likely tempted to get it now because if you just think about it, you do any extraneous activities on your phone, it'll heat up anyway.

Thoughts?
[Xperia Z3v General] 4shlr:
So what about if I am paying monthly on the retired edge program? Is that trade in price of $379 what I could finance monthly?
[Xperia Z3v General] GigaSPX:
I think that would come to terms whether you're done financing the Z3v with the Edge plan by then. Otherwise, I think you're just paying at a discounted full price and all you'll be paying for is your plan month to month. I'm not too sure.
[Xperia Z3v General] 4shlr:
I just got the z3v a few months ago so I know I'm not done paying for it...but I think I'll try to sweet talk them at the store and play the no VoLTE and broken promises cars and see what they'll do for me (if anything)

---------- Post added at 08:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:05 AM ----------

This is my 1st sony phone after trying virtually all other manufacturers, except LG, and I love it. Came from Note 3 and I loved the size but wasn't a fan of TW. I think the biggest struggle I've had is the lack of support and development. But honestly I was kinda tired of rooting/tinkering with my phone and just wanted a good phone with great camera and battery. Didn't realize how much I'd miss simultaneous voice and data...here's hoping the z4v has all I need. Appreciate the update Giga
[Xperia Z3v General] pchain:
I simply don't know what I'm going to do. My experience with the Z3v has been the best I've ever had on any phone from a stability, reception, OS fluiditity and stability standpoint, and of course this amazing battery.

So I paid full price $599 for this phone 9 months ago. I'd have to pay an additional $379 to trade it in, meaning in total I'd be spending over $1000 with tax and everything.

For that $1000 I'm getting more resolution which I don't need, shorter battery life which I dont want, a faster processor that probably makes no difference in day to do use, Lollipop with all the annoying bright colors and white screens that I don't like, and simultaneous voice and data.

In other words for me personally the only positive thing I'm gaining for spending $1000 is simultaneous voice and data, and updates that will protect me from malware vulnerabilities. Both of these things were promised to me when I bought the Z3v, and now I have to pay another $379 and have to give back my Z3v for their broken promises?

In the end I consider this offer from Verizon a joke. Are we supposed to be happy to pay for their mistake? And on top of it they get to keep our Z3v on the trade so we can't even sell it off later ourselves to offset the cost of their mistake.

Thanks Verizon. Well done, you really know how to shaft your customers.
[Xperia Z3v General] GigaSPX:
I understand where you're coming from. You're not the only one who had to spend full price for the Z3v as Verizon's joke attempt on setting up a phone for failure. It's up to you whether you want to keep it or not, but I know you've had great experiences with yours. I wouldn't totally diss the Z4v on battery life necessarily because it does have real Z3 hardware technology such as the screen RAM, which saves on power. The higher display resolution is highly questionable and makes no different to the human eye than what Full HD can already do.

I do wish there was a better option for us Z3v owners than just knocking off $220. This info is only a rumor so o hope there is a better rumor than this.
[Xperia Z3v General] pchain:
I really appreciate you passing the rumors on to us GigaSPX. If the rumors are true, its like Verizon is kind of admitting they screwed up, but they are passing the cost of that srew-up on to the customers backs. I'd be more apt to pay $379 for a Z4v if I could keep my Z3v, plus have the Z4v insured at no extra cost to us.

So rather than getting a Z4v, anyone thinking about the new 2015 Moto X Style Pure Edition for $399? That would take Verizon out of the picture entirely for updates.... lol
[Xperia Z3v General] Mize:
Wait for Z5 then ditch Verizon. Why reward fraud?
[Xperia Z3v General] BladeRunner:
Actually I am, or one of the new Nexus devices, providing they are all carrier compatible like the Nexus 6. This really has to leave a bitter taste in the mouths of z3v owners, waiting for an update that never came. I really do like Sony's hardware and loved the Z2 I had when I was briefly on AT&T. If the $220 trade in is true it's not that bad of a deal as the z3v is selling for just a little more than that on swappa right and will likely sell for less once the z4v actually drops.
[Xperia Z3v General] XPS-Lionel:
I paid $340 for my Z3v new from swappa. there must have been a liquidation of the phones because a lot of them sold around the time I got mine. At the moment I honestly dont think its worth it for me even though I got mine for cheaper. The accessory support will probably be just as bad as the z3v. I really like being able to get something different from what many people know of and buy, it almost has an exclusive feel to it while hiding its faults at the same time. If it wasnt for the moto x pure edition price, I would probably go through with the whole trade in thing. All in all, I still like the phone for its screen, battery and audio with headphones or speakers. This whole stage fright thing would be another reason to get a phone I know will be updated and if not root and cyanogen mod will be there if stage fright security measures don't take it away.
[Xperia Z3v General] Mountainfisher:
I'm thinking about the new 2015 LG nexus 5. But only if it's on Verizon. Because Verizon does have the best network.
[Xperia Z3v General] GigaSPX:
Just so you know, you can download Textra as your text messaging app to protect yourself against stagefrite.

Reason why I'm sticking with Sony is because of all those above reasons and the waterproofing. I have the noise cancelling headset that matches with the phone and I should have bought it at the very beginning for use.
[Xperia Z3v General] pchain:
I can vouch for Textra.... great messaging app plus protection. Been using it for about a year.
[Xperia Z3v General] JediDru:
Won't be updating. Don't fall into that trap. Its like your giving them a pat on the back for screwing us. "Couldn't help but notice we stopped supporting your phone. For only $400 we will give you the next generation. Just don't expect us to support that one."
[Xperia Z3v General] GigaSPX:
As much as it pains me for that too, what option are you going with?
[Xperia Z3v General] JediDru:
Gonna just have to tough out my contract and drive their name in the mud. Throwing more money at this is not an option for me. As far as getting a vzw branded android phone. It doesn't fix anything but incentives them to screw people over and have them buy new devices. Those who buy a Z4v expecting more then 89 days of support are kidding themselves. I really can't see them supporting it any longer then they have ours. Based on the reality of our situation. I understand folks wanting another device just don't play the game that round 2 will be any better.
[Xperia Z3v General] XPS-Lionel:
I thought all you needed to do was just turn off the auto download mms? There were also other ways to catch it instead of just text from my understanding.

I have been interested in that headset you mentioned I just haven't purchased it yet.

The waterproofing feature is a large reason why I got the z3v in the first place but because of the rear glass adhesive issue I have its not always sealed properly. its like it wants to stick but slowly comes undone. Im about to dip the whole back in plastidip jk...or not. If I could get maybe 300-340 out of it instead of the crummy 220 I would probably get the z4m I mean z4v without com"promise" from vzw about updating. (sounded better in my head)
[Xperia Z3v General] GigaSPX:
I really have no idea about the whole rear adhesive, but maybe putting a case on could keep it together? Lol

If it was 300-400 off, that would be satisfactory. But seriously, does no one think there can't be a lawsuit over broken promises? lol
[Xperia Z3v General] XPS-Lionel:
Im seriously thinking about spraying white plastidip on the back. A case wont help because the lift is so tiny. if you look at the back of your phone at a 20 degree angle you should notice the plastic trim lip all the way around. on the usb side and right over that spot the glass is meeting that point on my device instead of being below it.

I say haggle with vzw for a better price lol. The time you take trying to get your point across they would have made that back and more in a matter of seconds.

#com"promise" lol
[Xperia Z3v General] GigaSPX:
So I'm speaking with a Verizon agent simply asking, "is Verizon still supporting the Z3v?" Apparently it still is because there was announcement of an update on July 14th, but it didn't get release because of some bugs. So I've been informed of a tentative software update sometime this month of August. Which is really up in the air considering all these past months.

I then ask about the Z4v and what there is for us. We can trade in our Z3v if it's in like new and working condition, and mine could go for $310 to trade in. I asked how much the Z4v would be full price, and they have no solid idea other than comparing the full price for the Z3v going for $499 (although that's the current retail value now as opposed to 10 months ago). So that ay bring it down to $290 instead of $370 if the full price is $599...hmm....

[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] farris:
I was using my wireless Logitech desktop set but I noticed some lag after not using it for some seconds. When I keep using the mouse or keyboard there is no problem and everything works fine. But when I stop typing or stop mousing for longer than three seconds, the tablet doesn't recognize any input anymore. When I move the mouse or use the keyboard, nothing happens, but after two seconds any input is recognized again.

So I have to keep typing or else I have to wait some seconds to let the tablet recognize any input. This is unworkable.

I tested it with two desktop sets with two different Unifying receivers. When I use a corded mouse or keyboard, everything's fine. It seems to me that there is some sort of logitech standby mode which the tablet can't handle or something.

What can I do abaout this?

Has there been any solution to this issue yet? I too am having the same problem.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ORnH:
Work Around

I have a work around that seems to fix this issue. For this to work you will need to be root. Also note that this solution will cause all USB devices to remain on at all times and will not survive a reboot. My experience is mostly with linux and very little with android. I expect someone should be able to modify the following script fairly easily for a more permanent solution.

Open your favorite terminal emulator and type the following four commands pressing enter after each:

su

for i in /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/power/control;

do echo on > $i;

done

This script toggles the power control setting for all usb devices from the auto state to always on. Hope this helps!

I was using my LG G3 as usual, just watching some video's, when the screen began to randomly black out. I thought nothing of it, and continued to watch video's. This happened twice. Then next thing i know, the phone's screen permanently off, and it wont light up. The only exception to this is when i plug the phone in to charge without a battery pack in. When i do this, the screen is still black, but is powered. I haven't done anything unusual, like rooting the phone, and i can still accept calls on it, and change the volume. If anyone cold help, that would be great, anything at all.

Don't get me wrong. I love my SD card. But with a 128gb phone, I think its doable to me personally. I current have a note 4 with 128gb SD card. Definitely don't have it maxed out. But I could see if someone had a bunch of movies it would be. Really you are losing 32gb with the note 5. I think I can handle that. If it was just 64gb I would be completely out.

Edit: Guess you will lose more than 32gb one you take in account the amount needed for the OS...
[Galaxy Note5 General] ryanalan82:
Last yr when the note 4 launched, with an upgrade, and handing in my old eVo 4g lte, It cost $100+ tax and activation. 2 weeks later picked up a 128 gb card on eBay for $110. So maybe around $250 for a 160 gb note 4 fully feature packed. Everyone this yr should just keep their note 4 or go get one if they don't.
