[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] featherknox:
Hello Dear Developers and Average Users..

I am wondering whether there is any easy way to Record Facebook Video Calls or Skype calls on my Android Phone(Galaxy S5)?

I have an idea of buying a paid Screen Recorder but I don't know whether it would serve the purpose or not.

Any help in this regard would be highly appreciated..

Thanks in Advance.

Hey man for my white GS3 I had made a TWRP backup I wanted to know:

1. Can I restore a TWRP backup I had made on my white GS3 to my black GS3? Are there any partitions I should avoid doing this with (ie cache)?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mpadhu:
Avoind doing this. The TWRP or any nandroid backup will also have unique things such as IMEI number and other stuffs. So if you restore in other phone then the chances of problems are more.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unL33T:
So I noticed about 2 months ago that I have absolutely no sound (voice in/out or ringing while call is being placed) when I make or receive calls using the Phone app. I have various VOIP apps that all work fine. All media plays fine. Headsets all work fine for watching movies and whatnot. No sound during calls.

I had a factory unlocked N7100 that I was told came from Spain originally (I'm in Toronto). I had flashed some other country (I think South Africa) because they got a newer version and my phone wasn't updating automatically. Never had any issues until I noticed this with the calls. I have no idea how long it's been like that as I have a second phone I use primarily for voice calls and this one I usually just use basically as a tablet or I use VOIP apps for calling.

Yesterday I tried to flash to DN4 2.1 but after numerous times it would never get past the Samsung logo so I went with a France 4.4.2 stock ROM. That one has since autoupdated. Everything is working great including data. I can place calls and the other line will ring but there is no audio in/out of my phone (other end can't hear me, I can't hear them). Although it's not a huge issue for me I'd like to fix it. I have previously messed around with hidden menus and possibly even tried to play modifying with the phone app (as various hidden menus stopped working after the last update and I was trying to get them back). But when I was trying to get DN4 to work I wiped EVERYTHING repeatedly so I don't think anything could be hanging around to mess stuff up.

I don't think it's a hardware issue otherwise why would it work fine for VOIP using the same mic and speaker? Also, it doesn't work through a headset either. No voice, no ringing, etc.

Currently my phone is showing the following:

Baseband:

N7100XXUFNG1

Kernel:

3.0.31-4587314

dpi@SWDD5010 #1

Tue Mar 31 14:58:35 KST 2015

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unL33T:
Found the answer here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57436919&postcount=39

Instant call volume after I do this. But now my Google apps don't work. I need a better solution!

Edit: Nevermind, turned them back on and calls are still working. Hopefully it doesn't stop working the moment I need to make an emergency call or something.

Hi.

Where can I buy a replacement LCD for HTC Herald? Is it difficult to replace it myself?
[Wing, P4350 Accessories] neptune:
The best place to purchase a screen would be straight from china. If you want I can contact my link in china for the price of an lcd, or you can try and find one on e-Bay. I've done quite a few lcd and housing replacements for Pocket Pc devices and I suggest that you dont do it unless you know what you are doing. One of my friends even took his device to a real technician and he still messed it up. My suggestion would be to find a certified technician and make sure that they offer a warranty service for 3-6 months after the servicing.

EDIT: you must find the HTC model number of the LCD, and use that to search. Even though its the same size as the wizards, the flex cable might be in a different position. Also I think it would be quite hard to change without a corresponding service manual. My LCD was replaced also, but at the time it was still under international warranty, so I decided to send it in to HTC. HTC also modded my phone by adding an extra plate in between the slide out keyboard and the screen, has made the slide out more sturdy.
[Wing, P4350 Accessories] DonCorloene:
Do you have a link for a china webshop where they have it?
[Wing, P4350 Accessories] neptune:
I will contact them when I get home and get them to send an English link to their website. In the meantime try to find a service manual for the Herald.
[Wing, P4350 Accessories] orochidp:
I don't mean to advertise, but I got my LCD from here when I cracked mine.

http://cnn.cn/shop/p4350dopod-c858-screen-p-1705.html

$60 for a perfect OEM screen with touch sensor is a DAMN fine deal, and they were pretty much the only site I could find under a hundred bucks.
[Wing, P4350 Accessories] The Dutchman:
That's a damn nice site! too bad I would not risk repairing it myself, and going to a technical repair guy with your own stuff is not an option:p lol
[Wing, P4350 Accessories] batesie:
i got a replacement screen from CNN.CN via fedex and it arrived in 3 days. fitted it myself, as i have replaced several phone housings in the past. it can be a bit of a mission, took me 2 hours with rest breaks and no rushing.

as long as your patient and methodical, it can be done yourself.
[Wing, P4350 Accessories] kennyidaho:
Sadly they don't seem to carry them anymore. They have P4350 housing but no LCD's. I am in need of both. Just broke my phone today.
[Wing, P4350 Accessories] HandN:

[LG Optimus L90] seities:
I'm a bit slow to realize this, but after updating to T mobile's latest 20b firmware (lollipop 5.0x), it lost root. I then tried to root it, using the three methods mentioned here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2732311.

Towelroot clearly doesn't work anymore. The zip file in the above thread couldn't be flashed since there's no recovery operation possible (just showing an android with ! in a triangle sign). I also tried the purpledrake, but the script doesn't run when the phone is connected with all drives installed and adb devices showing the phone. I then tried to get fastboot mode back (to install twrp/cwm recovery to flash the zip file) by following http://xdaforums.com/lg-l90/general/guide-fastboot-l90-d415-t2827825 which I have done successfully before, but then couldn't do it because it requires root (doh!).

So it seems that I just lost my ability to root, unless I downgrade to a stock kitkat (10e?) from tmobile, and then towelroot/etc. assume those work.

Anyone with experience on the stock 20b firmware? Can you root it and how? I'd love to use the beautiful 12.1 Cyanogen that's available here, but the camera doesn't work right on mine. Thus stock 5.0 seems to be the best option. Many thanks.
[LG Optimus L90] seities:
I got a bit further on the purpledrake method, in that I had to do a clean restart on the phone and connect to usb before the script will recognize. However, it ends up giving a really quick error message after trying a temp root: "your phone is not running a compatible software version. No vulnerable mode detected. Rebooting phone."

Anyway, many thanks to [MENTION=6287517]brossovitch[/MENTION] I followed http://highonandroid.com/android-smartphones/how-to-root-lg-g-flex-2-g2-g3-on-lollipop/ and it works like a charm. I can't seem to delete this very short thread so I thought I'd wrap it up with a solution. If it seems a bit useless please remove the thread (or tell me how to do it since I can't find the "easy button"). Thanks.

Hey Guys,

Just got my Nexus 6 this week, and immediately put Pure Nexus on it. I was curious if anyone else is having an issue with menu prompts in the dialer.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PolishDude:
Okay so I got an invite to Project Fi, not sure if I will end up using it but noticed I can get 24 month financing on the Nexus 6P with it. How would that work if I never activated the sim but got the 6P or would the 6P come automatically activated with Project Fi? Would they start sending me a bill for the 6P every month or would they later want me to pay the balance?

I am on the T-Mobile family plan (the promotion that just ended) so I pay $30 a month for unlimited talk, text, and 10 GB of data so don't think Project Fi makes sense to me but would like to take advantage of their financing option.
[X Style (Pure) General] mlr_90:
I love the MXPE! It's a great phone. With that being said, I'm returning it. I got a Nexus 6 at an incredible deal. I had planned on reselling it but after opening the box and trying it out, I just like it better. I'm coming from a Droid Turbo and I loved Qi charging as well as the AMOLED display. I've previously had all the Samsung Galaxy S series phones along with a Nexus S. I'm spoiled to the AMOLED displays. The MXPE is easier to handle and the screen is plenty big. It's just nice to have the ability to sit my phone down on the TYLT charger at night rather than look for the dang cord that always seems to fall between the night stand and the bed. Plus, I'm on call. When the phone rings at 3am, I feel like I'm going to rip the cord out of the phone when I answer. If this phone had wireless charging and an amoled display it would definitely be a keeper for me. I got the Nexus 6 when the deal was running on ebay for $299(new). It was hard to pass up that deal ;)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xen0byte:
Hi, I just transitioned to CyanogenMod 12.1 and I want to install the Google Play Store app but I'm not sure what are the advantages of flashing a minimal GApps package over simply sideloading the APK... or whether there even are any advantages at all. I know that the GApps package also includes some extra functionality, but what is that functionality and can I do without it?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Just the Play Store alone isn't enough. It's best to install a Gapps package because it will install the Google Services Framework, Play Store, and a couple more things needed to make it work. I find it best to flash an appropriate package and then just disable whatever you don't need after you boot. If you uninstall something important, it's more of a pain to install again vs just defreezing the app. You don't save any more usable space by deleting them anyway as they are stored in a different partition vs apps you load from the Play Store.

I use the new official HTC Asia WM 6 WWE rom (3.7.707.1), without serious problems so far. I like this rom.

The only impovement I'd like to have is a nice big button dialer with smartdialing (as I used to have it in WM5, taken from the forum). The green HTC dialer is quite ugly and hard to find the right buttons with my fingers...

I know that some custom ROMs have nice dialer versions but I prefer using the official ROM.

So I thank in advance if anyone can offer a good solution. Any help is appreciated!

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devbro:
Ok ok before you all start saying that Project Fi is only on Nexus phones hear me out:

If I have an Galaxy S6 and pop a Project Fi sim card in it. What would happen? Will it not work at all or something else will happen? Will it work for all services(talk, text, data) or just some of them and in a limited way?

And assuming that I can use Project Fi on S6 then I have these questions:

Will it effect the cost of my bill at the end of the day? If I use a non-Nexus phone how much more will I be charged and for what exactly?

Oh and the last question: Will it work on all editions of galaxy s6 or t-mobile compatible models only.

I already have an invite but do not want to buy a new phone just for that and my current plan is not that bad.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsp4774:
I just tried this. I put the Project Fi SIM in on Tuesday and waited for my number to be ported. Today I checked the Fi app and it said there was a problem with my SIM card and to contact customer support. Of course, they just hit me with the rhetoric about it not being compatible and that, despite videos showing it working on the S6, the forums say that it stops working after a few days or they start getting a lot of error messages. This doesn't really make sense as it's basically just cellular service, but whatever. It seems they don't want it working on anything other than their flagships, and I'm not buying something I can't afford when I have a better phone in my hand right now. I'll be checking MetroPCS or the like instead to get away from T-Mobile.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devbro:
I ordered my sim card and did the same thing. Just like you I run into the similar situation.

For activation you can only do it on a nexus phone. They can actually see what kind of phone you have when you activate. Also number porting takes a few seconds to a minute to complete. If it gives the error right away then the problem is with the phone model.

Hi people,

Been reading the forums for help for a long time - finally decided to join; hopefully will be able to help... I am not a pro - actually quite a newbie; hopefully will become a pro spending enough time here :)

I am trying to make my SMG920V (Samsung S6 Verizon unlocked) work with Project Fi. It is working but only very poorly.

T-mobile network shows up but disappears intermittently (I changed the APN settings from apn . gishan . net)

Even when it works, I am getting only H or H+, not LTE

Request your help please?!

I would ideally not like to root the phone (my wife uses it and she knows nothing about technology!) but if that is the only option to use all bands (IF that is the problem) then I will; the phone is on 7.0

Looking forward to your help!

Hi,

I have a rooted (UniKernel + TWRP) on a stock 5.1.1 rom.

I bought this phone in order to have an international version but I'm living in the US with a T-Mobile SIM card.

I rooted this phone to try to enable Wifi calling on my G920F.

I followed this guide to add the Wifi Calling option to the Phone settings --> Enabling Hidden Features

( I added the two lines in others.xml )

This is based on EE network Wifi calling capabilities.

After restarting I have the option, turned it on but nothing worked.

Apparently I am missing another option to choose the wifi calling mode according to T-Mobile support :

I don't have the Wifi Calling app installed also. Does someone have an APK ?

Did anyone make it work ? What settings did you use ?

Also if someone has a T-Mobile version, it is possible to get the content of Others.xml in order to compare.

[Moto G 2014 LTE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XDA Visitor:
Hello.

I'm a newbie.

Just wanted to ask, is there a step-by-step guide on how to put sock firmware (lollipop) onto my Moto G 4G?

I also have the following questions and would be grateful if someone would answer them please:

1. When I put stock ROM onto an SD card or in a folder of my Windows computer, do I need to unzip it, or leave it zipped? Will the phone flash itself when boot into Custom Recovery? Or do I always need to use mfastboot?

2. Can I upgrade from Vodafone UK Kitkat (phone now unlocked) directly to Lollipop, or do I need to flash Kitkat ROM with EU firmware first?

3. If mfastboot needs to be in the same folder as the stock firmware, then why do your instructions say that it should be '1) Download ROM to Internal storage or External SD.'

4. When you say, '4) Flash ROM and Radio Firmware for your model.', I understand it means using mfastboot?

Thanks for any advice, and I apologize if the questions above sound silly (one has to start somewhere).

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Unfortunately, I am only comfortable with answering a small fraction of those (e.g., leave the file zipped - unless there is an update zip in the zip bundle), as most of the questions are specific to Motorola devices (I may get around to owning one at some point ;))
