Sprite Backup Version 6 is about to be released and we are looking for participants in our beta program. We appreciate that not everybody can hard reset their devices and check the integrity of the restore operations, but that is what we are REALLY looking for so anyone who sends us a log file for a full restore will get a free copy when it is launched (targeting 1 August).

What’s new in Version 6?

Support for backup to FTP servers for additional off-device data protection

Support for WM 6 storage card encryption – recover after a hard reset

Integrated support for creation of dedicated backup storage cards

Support for SIM locked devices

New user interface – supports all form factors

Sprite Explorer is now bundled with Sprite Backup

Full configuration control via PC Manager application.

Common installer across all WM5 and WM6 platforms

What’s improved in Version 6?

Data migration across ROM or device upgrades is now smarter

Improved support for PIN locked devices

Simplified password management for privacy protection

Improved rules for managing backup exclusions

PC Manager is now much more useful

Integration of ease-of-use with powerful flexibility

Please read the announcement and download the beta version at Sprite Beta forum:

[LG Watch Urbane] HotShotAzn:
Oh the proverbial rock and hard place.

I got rid of my LG G watch and just sold my Gear S (phenomenal screen BTW). I was going to wait for the Zenwatch 2 to come out in a month but I am missing my watch.

My cousin is selling his Urbane for pretty much what the Zenwatch 2 will cost.. He is OCD like me so its in meticulous condition.

Is it worth it to buy the Urbane now that the next gen are coming out? I consider the Urbane and Watch R as "V1.5" but they do share similar hardware with the "V2.0" watches.
[LG Watch Urbane] vrnsr:
I don't see any exciting new features in the next android wear watches.

The round ones- new 360 and huawei are similar to the urbane, a matter of taste which one to get.

The squares- the sony has no heart rate monitor and the zenwatch2 is square with 2 sizes. I'm not a fan of square watches.

Don't see any competition to the urbane for now
[LG Watch Urbane] AstroDigital:
360 still has flat tire

Huawei is more expensive but for that extra $100 I see no new features
[LG Watch Urbane] slaydog:
It's a perfect watch, but I agree is sort of a 1.5 gen... I just don't know what real second gen watches will bring to the table that software updates won't get us on this watch...

Kinda waiting for Samsung to come out with a nice round watch, since they tend to throw everything but the kitchen sink into them, lol. Would love to have IR blaster, camera and speaker back
[LG Watch Urbane] A_Str8:
I don't think the Zenwatch 2 has a heart rate monitor.

The newly announced watches aren't really a new generation. Their specs match the previously released watches. If the urbane is gen 1.5, then so is everything else that is currently out or was recently announced
[LG Watch Urbane] HotShotAzn:
I wanted the Zenwatch 2 because, in my mind, it was a compromise from my Gear S and the 2" screen. But if you talk about area, the 1.65" Zenwatch 2 has the same screen area as the Urbane (roughly 1.35 sq inches).

I'm getting the Urbane. I like the looks and really don't want to wait til late October for a watch.
[LG Watch Urbane] Deleted member 267841:
Updates support?

If LG present a new watch in the next weeks (or before the new year), do you think about the Urbane updates?

Do you think that the Urbane will receive updates for at least 24 more months?
[LG Watch Urbane] HotShotAzn:
Yeah I don't think I'll have this watch in 24 months.

I would think there is some support for the watch up until next year ish.
[LG Watch Urbane] A_Str8:
I'm guessing that all of the snapdragon 400 wear watches will get support and updates for similar amounts of time
[LG Watch Urbane] Deleted member 267841:
If you're right there are good news,

Due to the 2nd generation watches are using this processor :)
[LG Watch Urbane] Itchiee:
Google is controlling the updates so that's not an issue. It still a great watch, that looks nice (I've lost count on the compliments and the interest others have in me wearing it) that's a solid choice. The newer watches aren't bringing anything new to the table so your not missing much. I'm gonna keep this until the next next gen comes with a speaker.
[LG Watch Urbane] HotShotAzn:
This is the reason I miss my Gear S. If that watch had Android Wear or even just Android, it would be light years ahead of anything available now.
[LG Watch Urbane] Itchiee:
Agree, but dumb Samsung wants to convince the world otherwise. If it were cross compatible with Android that would totally help their cause. Android Wear is only picking up steam so no sense jumping ship now... kills me since I love them and would totally buy one but I cannot start my car via Tizen. :o
[LG Watch Urbane] gorodishenin:
I'll buy new moto 360 i think....but Urbane is good too...
[LG Watch Urbane] bikrame:
I am waiting till October 1st event of LG. They might have new watch with NFC. Otherwise i m getting urbane too.
[LG Watch Urbane] Deleted member 267841:
I have finally bought my Urbane yesterday and probably receive it tomorrow or monday.

A NFC powered watch will be probably useful, but the Urbane can be bought by 250€ in some retailers, and I think the new LG watch (if any) will cost 350-400€ or more.

I think the Urbane is the best watch at this price range.
[LG Watch Urbane] HotShotAzn:
There's an Android to Gear S port being worked on but I think that is months from being done. I still miss my Gear S but you can't beat Android Wear. I didn't think I would miss my apps but oddly I did.
[LG Watch Urbane] Imranhakro:
:good:

Rose Gold or Silver?

we would like to see the pics. I can feel your excitement ;)
[LG Watch Urbane] Deleted member 267841:
Silver.

I have not viewed the Rose Gold in real, only in pics.

I like a lot, probably more than the silver,

but because I have not viewed in real and the difficulties to combine the rose gold color with a metal strap,

I have preferred to order the silver.
[LG Watch Urbane] Imranhakro:
:good:

I already had Tag heuer Mikrograph in Rose Gold so i went for Silver Urbane.
[LG Watch Urbane] :
Wow! I prefer the Tag Heuer to the Urbane ;)
[LG Watch Urbane] HotShotAzn:
Don't we all.

My father is a watch snob and poo poo'd my smart watch choices thus far. The Urbane has kind of brought me back in his good graces...depending on the watch face I use. I found one that matches my Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean (obviously a gift from said father as I can't afford that).
[LG Watch Urbane] :
Just received a few minutes ago.

Is amazing!
[LG Watch Urbane] speculatrix:
So far all Wear watches have the same internal technology, apart from the original Moto 360, and the now discontinued Urbane 2 LTE.

The differences are in the shell, screen, battery and a few features like GPS, heartrate monitor.

I think sales haven't been sufficient to cause manufacturers to invest masses into their next generation.
[LG Watch Urbane] :
Latest watches includes a speaker, that isn't included in the LG Urbane.

Speaker isn't useable at all in current Android version but possibly after the next update...
[LG Watch Urbane] ziffos:
Had the Alcatel One Touch Smartwatch - Had the Moto 360 versions 1 & 2 - Sold all these but definitely kept and love my Rose Gold Urbane.
[LG Watch Urbane] tonychou:
How is your Urbane, bro?

Any comments can be shared?
[LG Watch Urbane] :
In happy with it

For now I can't change to any other,

Due to in not Michael Night and I'm really don't need speaker functions ?
[LG Watch Urbane] tonychou:
Haha, and the watch body made by metal? Easy to be scratched?
[LG Watch Urbane] :
No one mark in the metal for now.

No marks in the screen, but I have installed a protection (like in the phone).

I use with a metal band, instead of the stock band
[LG Watch Urbane] tonychou:
Great, I saw eBay has brand new Urbane pink gold for 180USD, seems a nice offer..
[LG Watch Urbane] :
For this prize I think is the best option.

The battery is higher than the other watchs and has the same hardware specs (except the speaker).
[LG Watch Urbane] tonychou:
Btw, here has few Chinese team working on Urbane OS, named Duwear (Baidu's) and Tic Wear, Tic seems better update fast, maybe you can try them if you wish..
[LG Watch Urbane] :
no, no

I prefer AndroidWear, that is fully compatible with all my apps and also doesn't need any other app.
[LG Watch Urbane] 2x4:
i love my urbane, but if i was getting a new watch right now i'd wait for one similar to the Urbane (2?) LTE. While I may not use or want data now, I'd love the added battery and speaker support.

also, when US carriers start allowing two sims for one line (to share voice/data/SMS), I'd love to do that on my android smartwatch
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whitenifs:
on watchcartoononline.com when i click on play icon nothing happens. this issue came today all of a sudden.

or maybe its coz i bought chinese huawei device, or coz i installed xposed with xmultiwindow module.

any help? before it was good, it was starting playing normally. i tried desktop site version and video starts but when i click fullscreen icon nothing happens. not sure if thjs issue came with the first or it was like that before

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexandernacho:
Hi guys,

I'm quite a noob here, and I know you'll all probably say: hey, if you don't know what you're doing, just don't do it. I know that now, but I'm afraid it's to late :( I have been interested in rooting my Note 4 since a long time and today I finally did it and now I'm screwed...

So I have an international Note 4 (SM-N910F), running on 5.0.1. I rooted it and everything looked fine until I tried to install Xposed Framework. Now I knew in advance that there was a chance of getting stuck into a boot loop but on this forum (and others) it looked like it was quite easy to solve that problem by restoring the stock ROM, which I did.

I tried everything else:

- wipe cache partition

- wipe Dalvik cache

- wipe data/factory reset

- restore custom ROM

- did the CF-auto root again

I'm really desperate. Please don't go to hard on me for trying stuff I should stayed away from. If it gets solved I will never stick my noobish nose in these things again... :(

Please help

so I've done tons of research and lots of people

including me are complaining because there

are no roots or root methods for the new i545vrugof1 update for the galaxy s4 Verzion. for people who didn't take the Ota update, there are ways to keep your root when you update to of1 but for people who didn't take Ota update without flashing a rooted stock rom (muniz post) , there is no hope. you can't downgrade or root your device and you have no choice but to wait for a root method to come out or a new update. so anyone who is making a root for this specific firmware, please do so and help us out. I'm begging you XDA DEVELOPERS please help us out. and remember to spread awareness #rootvrugof1
[XDA Assist] Mike B.:
Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.

Sorry to hear about your trouble but we cannot provide technical support nor can other members reply to your posts here on XDA Assist Fortunately, as you know, there is an XDA area dedicated to the Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4 at http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4-verizon where you have already posted several times in the Q&A thread. That is the most likely place where members familiar with your device will be best able to guide you. Please be patient and give the experts plenty of time to respond since Verizon's locked bootloader makes some operations much more complicated than for other S4 variants.

Good luck!

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Broken:
Well, tried out Project Fi and didn't go well. My Nexus 6 was purchased from Sprint and when activated on Project Fi would never connect to Sprint. Called Sprint to see if it was locked somehow and they did an unlock request. Found out later this was a bad idea. Phone would still not connect to Sprint on Fi so cancelled and tried to go back to Sprint. Now they are saying phone is incompatible and they can not re add my MEID back to the system. Anyone else went through this? Been calling every day for a week and ready to say FU to this incompetent company.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
i would try flashing yoour stock build. i saw somewhere that fi can change some things that need a stock flash to fix.

just curious, why were you unhappy the fi wouldnt connect to sprint? was tmo not as good as the sprint you had?

my thought is its going to connect to the best network (theoretically), and for a large portion of the country, thats not sprint.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Broken:
Well, where I live they are both about the same, except where I work. Barely any reception on T-mo and when I do it is Edge...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
i read some post about bad activation on sprint, possibly tmo too, i dont recall the specifics.

unfortunately, i believe the fix was to wipe the phone and let it activate again on both networks.

once they had good activation's, the connection problems went away.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prdog1:
Sounds like a plan. Go stock and see what the hell works. If they can't make it work it an RMA and get new IEMI. :cool:
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quailallstar:
On Google's fi website it says to do the following when activating the service:

Is your Nexus 6 ready for Project Fi?

Only the North America model (XT1103) is supported.

If your phone is on Sprint, deactivate your Sprint service before you insert your Project Fi SIM card. This step doesn't apply if you're transferring your Sprint number to us.

https://fi.google.com/signup#signup/device

Could this be the issue you are having with Sprint? Did you deactivate your service first?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
the phone is not activated without a sim in it, so you should be able to remove the sim, then factory reset, and any trace of the sprint activation will be gone.

may be a better option for those who want to test fi, and arent ready to cancel their current service.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zavien3:
I did the same thing. I was going to just pay a month on Fi and use my google # and sim swap it to try it out. It got really hairy. T-Mo worked fine but wouldn't connect to Sprint. I called both Google and Sprint and they said it wouldn't ever work unless I cancelled the original line with Sprint. From what they said, you can't register the same IMEI twice on network. The service issue was fixed by doing this, manually reflash LMY48M in fastboot (fastboot flash radio radio.img) etc. There's a tutorial a google search away. Then boot, activate, dialer #*#*4636*#*#, change to LTE/GSM/CDMA AUTO PRL, and switch to band 7 mode.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vovkov:
came over from an old HTC and just took the keyboard for granted, used swype and the autocorrect was pretty ok, helpful, close enough most of the time

been on the note 4 for months now and the keyboard is just horrible, it takes me more time fixing brutal autocorrects and spaces and just messed up text all the time

what is everyone doing to get good usable keyboarding on this thing? is a new rom necessary?

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vovkov:
thanks, did that now, huge improvement

the native keyboard on my HTC was great, so never even thought about it not being something Samsung would do right, appreciate the tip
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
I've had the opposite experience - I find the note 4 keyboard to be way more accurate than other keyboards in both typing accuracy and word predictions.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NamelessFragger:
Never really noticed, but auto-correct and word prediction is literally the first thing I turn off on any keyboard. Hate 'em, especially as someone who doesn't want to end up as the next post on damnyouautocorrect.com and all.

In all other respects, I don't mind the stock Samsung keyboard, and I actually like the "swipe to move cursor" feature, even if the sensitivity on that could still use a bit of tuning to feel as good as one of those BlackBerry trackballs or trackpads. I also like the hold for symbols and accents and the dedicated number row, things that I hate not having on AOSP and Google keyboards.

At least Android lets you choose from any sort of soft input panel that you want. Even Palm OS-era Graffiti is an option, and I'd probably use it if the cut/copy/paste strokes worked and I could customize the strokes...
