Have you tried resetting(factory reset) your phone?
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silversandstorm:
Yes, i did a factory reset and it didnt help. Read some posts here and there on the net and also tried clearing partition cache, didnt help either. I dont want to root my phone aswel. Is it possible to instal the update by flashing?
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcjunky:
Another thing you can try is to find the ruu file for your specific device. But if you bought the HTC as a new never used phone and you didn't root or mod it then you should contact HTC. A stock phone shouldn't have a problem with OTA updates unless somehow it's downloading the wrong version for your device.
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silversandstorm:
I remember doing 2 things that might have caused the problem. 1 is that i have 360 antivirus which gave me a notification about some virus and i repaired it. And secondly i downloaded netqin contact backup which crashed everytime i tried to sign in. Anyway i have also contacted htc and have been given some simple and easy instructions to follow. I hope it will work. Just waiting to get the wifi connection and download the update. If it works ill post it here.

[Q] LG G2 Lollipop instal

Hi there i dont know nothing about instaling new sistems manually on android so here i am to ask you something. Im using Lg G2 D8022 Europe version and im on Android KitKat 4.4.2 and there are is no automatic softwear update available. So i want to update my phone to lollipop 5.0.2 that i supported by my phone so i found this article (i cant post link, but il coppy the article below ) and downloaded all that, but im confused and i dont want to mess up my phone, i found something about rooting and i dont know what that is and do i need to root my phone before i do this? If not, if this article is correct and all i need to is follow its instructions and it will instal me correctly new sistem i have another problem and that is geting my phone in download mode, when i do it (press volume button up and plug in usb cable) my phone starts charging. Im sorry if i have grammar mistakes im not native.

Here is the article :

How To Install Stock Android 5.0 2 Lollipop Firmware On LG G2 D802

To update your phone, download the stock Android 5.0.2 Lollipop firmware KDZ file for the LG G2 D802 variant from this link and save it on your computer. The file is about 1.8 GB, so you need a good internet connection.

Now you need LG drivers to connect your phone with computer. Download the drivers from this link and install it on your computer.

You will also need to download the LG Flash Tool 2014 tool and save it on your computer. Once it is downloaded, extract the file.

Turn off your phone and enter download mode on the phone. Connect the device to your PC using the USB cable.

Now open the LGFlashTool2014.exe file. Select your device type and phone mode from the drop-down menu. Next, choose the Android 5.0.2 Lollipop .kdz file that you downloaded to your computer via the ‘Select KDZ File’ option.

Click on Normal Flash/CSE flash and then click on start to begin the flashing process. You do not need to choose the desired language, it will be chosen automatically. Now wait until the firmware is flashed on your device.

Once the flashing is complete, disconnect your LG G2 from the computer and power it on.

Now you will find that your LG G2 is running the Android 5.0.2 Lollipop. Have a fun!
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gcgspain:
Since updating to 5.1.1 (Stock, clean install, UB) I have connection issues. Usually happens when switching wifi off or leaving a wifi conected zone, mobile data does not switch on most of the time or it takes a long time to turn itself on. As far as I have read it seems to be a 5.1.1 bug ( see https://productforums.google.com/forum/m/#!topic/nexus/o-UyGECxh2k )

Does anyone happen to know a fix?? Has anyone had a similñar issue on Xperia Z?

[Samsung Gear S] Pysech:
Hello,

I found that some of the Samsung S features may fill some of my needs however I have a few questions:

Does it work well with Note 3?

I would like to use it for fitness, is it any good for that? (running, indoor exercise,)

is there any standalone app that can be used for running (without phone)? I know that in Android wear we can use ghostracer and endomodo. Is there anything like that?

Is it worth getting it now for 289 €?

Thanks :)
[Samsung Gear S] 3kgt:
Yes

Yes

Dunno..think so

Yes
[Samsung Gear S] Pysech:
Thanks.

Some people in reddit said that it doesnt worth so I am a bit undecided.

I have already tried 2 wear devices and I am swapping for this one. Just returned de sony smartwatch 3 and ordered the gear S. Lets see if I am happy with it.

The thing is that the new ones coming now arent better for the purposes that I need. That is why I also decided to choose the gear S.
[Samsung Gear S] sefrcoko:
You should be happy with it, it's a great watch :)
[Samsung Gear S] Pysech:
Thanks :) I just received it :D
[Samsung Gear S] Cperrry1:
I also own the gear S and for what your looking for your will love it. I have about 350 mp3s loaded on my gear, I have the gear circle bluetooth headphones, so when I need to take a short trip out i can leave my phone at home, and still receive text, calls, email, and listen to my music while our and about. The large curved screen is incredible, stands out from all other smartwatches, and for its size its suprisingly light. Good luck.
[Samsung Gear S] ampm325:
Just want to add, that the new Samsung smart watch uses an eSim.

I still pop the sim out of my S5, and shove it in my watch when I want to leave my phone, and I don't pay any extra per month. Can't do that with an eSim.
[Samsung Gear S] Archangel:
Had the watch for about three weeks now and I love it. It is so nice to leave the phone home at times and still be in contact with others. As far as I know, this is the only watch that has the ability to make and receive calls as a stand-alone device. Never really got the whole "smart watch" thing. If your watch needs to be in the vicinity of the phone to receive notifications then why not just pick up your phone,,,,,the Gear S can work alone (albeit with limited functionality)if you turn blue-tooth and gear manager off. I do it all the time to save battery and I get almost three days life. My moto 360 gets maybe a day and does nothing more than my phone does. Heck it was just a few weeks ago that the 360 was able to work off of the internet connection which helps but, still thats at home (where my wifi connection is) and thats the same place as where my phone is located so again why not just use the phone LOL.
[Samsung Gear S] Pysech:
I agree with that. More importantly in my country where the eSim will take a long time to arrive.

Yes, that is why I decided to choose the S over the 360. Additionally, the new 360 (not the sport version) doesn't has GPS which was one of the features that made me choose the gear S. I am happy with it so far :D
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] herogjan:
As the title mentions rumors about the succesor for our ultra. I'm really anticipating on a succesor, i use my ultra now for 2 years. At this moment there is for me still no proper replacement on the market. If the rumors are true, i've found mine replacement:)

Didn't read anything yet about a flash, but i can't imagine that they make such a monumental mistake again.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] corrado85:
i can wait all day till they release Z5 ultra

I also have had this phone for 2 years now, and before that I use to upgrade my phones every 6-9months.. now I can't get over this phone :P
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Godaemon:
Article's description is too good to be true... The specs are awesome... Lets pray they release the real successor for our device!

Sent from my Xperia Z Ultra
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] raundown:
Rumour like this have been spread all over the years since the Ultra came out. Most of em are click baits for more traffic to their websites or some people's imagination to 'satisfy' themselves since it is likely that the Ultra is Sony's first and last attempt of making a true phablet.

I personally think we won't see another 6.4 inch until the stylus game is making a comeback.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fastest83:
That's EXACTLY what I'm experiencing.

Galaxy S6, Note 5, Nexus 6, LG G4, Z5, HTC ONE, all fantastic performers, but....... Not a single one could convince me to leave the Ultra.

I've actually been tempted to buy another one just in case... [emoji16]

I desperately hope that Sony will not leave us hanging longer, 2.5 years are enough.

And as I said before, the Ultra was presented as a TOP performer, first with SD800, and reviewed by all as a beast, as a nerd wet dream, regardless of the flaws (big, awful camera, no flash etc).

They couldn't present it now with the SD810, it wasn't "one of a kind".

I just hope they're waiting the new processor and MWC to unveil the next gen of this beast.

I'm currently rocking a GPe based rom (Hybrid by Uncle Lucifer), and NOTHING is smoother.

Just imagine what could possibly be with SD820 and 4GB ram... [emoji33]

I personally don't care about the camera. If it's there, good, if it's a 13mpx, well that's enough for me.

I want a powerful device with a superb screen, and if they can make it smaller with the same 6.44 screen, good, if they can't and it's thicker with more battery, good, if they can't do that either and make it exactly the same phone with upgraded internals, I'm good with that too. [emoji16]
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] herogjan:
You just described my thought process :laugh: I've read all the reviews, and always come to the same conclusion. All the devices feel as i have to make to many compromises. And also i was thinking to buy a second one in case of something worse happened with the one i'm using.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fastest83:
I remember everybody going on laughing at how big of a phone it is, I can't even begin to describe the mockery at work once I got it; then everybody tried it, and their freaking mouths went shut, and then open wide at how beautiful of a device it is.

It's big, yeah we get it, but it's slim, elegant, it makes you go "wow" once you play with it and also go "meh" every time you try something else.

I get that people want 5.5 screens, no bezels, something you can use with one hand, cameras that can spot an hair on a fly at 5 meters away, but those guys are not me.

SD820 might be the way for Sony to show once again they can pull off a trick with a device so powerful and so beautiful that you can't even begin to think to go somewhere else.

No matter what other OEMs have to offer.

No matter what other people say.

They should have a survey on Ultra owners, I bet that 90% of us would never change OEM if Sony guarantees a new Ultra every 2 years.

[Redmi Note 2 General] mzeshanhakeem:
can someone request Chinese Dev to add double tap to wake feature.
[Redmi Note 2 General] Ouzo:
Does the screen support it? I know the SoC does, in theory (it also supports MHL but were not going to get that).

If you install a third party launcher like Nova, you can add a shortcut to the home screen via activities that will let you get to a more default looking version of settings. In there you will find a setting to enable double tap to wake, but of course enabling it doesn't work.
[Redmi Note 2 General] mzeshanhakeem:
Gesture support is not enabled in redmi note 2 kernel that is why it does not work and MIUI has not released kernel source yet.

Users requested for this feature on en.miui.com (worst forum i have ever experianced)

will wait and see.....

One critical bug:

Apps from Google play store can't be installed without WLAN.

I try to explain it with my limited English.... When trying to download the app, the popup appears telling something like; the file is very big, do you want to install it with WiFi or not. Answering I DO NOT want to use WiFi, the download bar appears with text; waiting for WiFi connection.

So, without WiFi the phone is useless because this bug.

Today's multi language ROM from xiaomi.EU seems to fix some bugs. I think stereo Bluetooth is stutter free now, though the quality of audio seems to have deteriorated (if you see what I mean). Sound in Dead Space is as bad as ever. Epic Citadel seems better.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CacheOnlyPlease:
So I've got a US Cellular Note 4 running a SlimRemix rom. I flashed from a 9/1 build to a 9/13 build and when the phone booted up, wifi wouldn't turn on. It's grayed out.

This is what I've tried:

1. Flashed multiple different roms, other than SlimRemix

2. Restored from a previous nandroid backup

3. Flashed a stock build and lost root (have since re-rooted and I'm back on the 9/13 build of SlimRemix).

4. Tried Wifi Fixr and a couple of other apps in the Play Store with no luck

5. Did a factory reset within SlimRemix - This actually brought wifi back, but only for about half a day. I lost it again last night.

6. I've messed around with the wpa_supplicant.conf files a little bit (in various folders) but with no luck. I even tried renaming wpa_supplicant.conf to something else, so the phone would generate a new one on its own, but it didn't work.

I've seen this problem on various phones on various carriers, but I still can't find a direct solution to it. Anyone have any more ideas? I've only got so much data I can use this month...
