[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
Define "major issues". I'm sure the phone will work but it won't work at full speed and will probably throttle heavily. It will be an average performer. Because most of us are spec heads and heavy users, we'll notice it whereas the casual user won't. It just depends on your expectations of the device.
[Nexus 6P General] WoodroweBones:
Major issues would be having a supposedly faster processor performing worse than a lower end processor because of throttling
[Nexus 6P General] Phazmos:

i hope this thing has that extreme brightness mode hidden away like the nexus 6 has. i use that almost all day outside
[Nexus 6P General] stevew84:
What is this setting you speak of?
[Nexus 6P General] shawnten:
it is only the coolest feature ever if you work outside or just want the brightest screen ever. I dont know who found this setting in the kernel but here is the widget to go along with it

Ah ok, I prefer not to burn my screen though!
[Nexus 6P General] shawnten:
lol thats so 2 years ago. do screens even get burn in anymore. I have been using that feature for 9 hours a day since around January and I dont even have a hint of burn it.
[Nexus 6P General] razor237:
I think you could possibly have a burn in happen but i don't think under normal use it will happen. Now if you had the same static image that didn't change much at all and had the screen on for multiple days at a time .
[Nexus 6P General] matteventu:
No.

Embargo for the reviews will end this Sunday ;)

Believe me or not, you'll see.
[Nexus 6P General] Poke_N_PDA:
Mine was just an educated guess. I hope you are right! That would be awesome!
[Nexus 6P General] Phazmos:
Lol - you must lug a generator around with ya just to keep the phone plugged in!
[Nexus 6P General] Lowresolution:
I am on the fence on buying the either the 6P or the Note 5 !! . I see no official reviews yet so i am waiting.

I know this is a Nexus forums , but i would still ask if someone would recommend the Note 5 over the 6P ( i have no issues with using either TW or stock Android , as i have used both Samsung / Nexus`s in the past)
[Nexus 6P General] [hfm]:
It's for you to decide based on the feature set. Research, decide.
[Nexus 6P General] MYxdaUSERNAME:
No one has a 6p, how could we possibly make up your mind for you?

So many awesome phones coming out tight now my bank account is feeling it ha-ha. This 6p, the xperia z5 and the Microsoft lumia 950xl are all great looking. Two of three already preordered. Can't wait for them all to arrive :)
[Nexus 6P General] JKWR:
Same here. Im thinking I could have got a 64gb dual sim note 5 ages ago but im waiting for reviews of the 6p. I have the 128gb aluminium preordered.

Note 5:

Faster storage

More Ram

S-Pen

Multitasking split screen

Fast wireless charging

Nexus 6p:

More storage

Latest android

Massive battery
[Nexus 6P General] shawnten:
honestly I had a note 5 for 3 weeks and it was a beautiful phone but it shuddered big time when scrolling webpages so much so that I sold it and am just using my nexus 6. It is definitely a software thing but I just couldnt stand it. it was not near as smooth as my nexus 6 or even my lg g4 that I had. The note 5 could have been so good and it should be for the price but it just isnt that good.
[Nexus 6P General] brar.arsh:
I have S6 edge plus, love it. But waiting for my Nexus 6P to arrive as well.
[Nexus 6P General] H0tep:
Note 5 is the best phone I've ever seen, and very future proof. If you don't mind TW, it is most likely a better device than the N6P. But I don't think the gap is what the price indicates, and the option for 128gb and stock Android is essential for someone like me so I'm getting the nexus
[Nexus 6P General] razor237:
I had the Note 4 and overall it was a great phone for me except i hated touchwiz i thought it ruined the phone and it could have been much better with out. IF you don't mind TW then the note 5 would be a solid choice its a nice looking phone with nice specs, I for one want a stock android feel and like getting updates when they released, its the only thing i missed about having an iphone was you could always get the latest versions of the os upon release .
[Nexus 6P General] H0tep:
Note 5 also markedly better TW experience... However note 4 markedly better battery performance

[Nexus 6P General] ozzyager:
Funny - I don't think he was supposed to post that yet - or it's just a coincidence that I was able to watch it once, but now it's "private"
[Nexus 6P General] WoodroweBones:
Yeah I'm guessing he wasnt supposed to post it. NDA probably isnt up yet. Someone earlier suggested they had inside info that the NDA was going to be lifted sunday or monday which would make sense if he just received his review unit
[Nexus 6P General] PlatinumNick:
Holy crap it looks like this guy got into trouble because he took the unboxing video off lol

---------- Post added at 05:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:17 PM ----------

check out his twitter page

i asked him when can we expect a review he said these exact words

I wish I could give you an exact date but part of our coverage begins next week.

here is his twitter page conversation is under the unboxing comment

[Nexus 6P General] M@rs:
Anyone have a copy of the video? Or maybe watched it on pc and can pull it from cache with videocacheview for example? :D
[Nexus 6P General] PlatinumNick:
there we have it folks review and hands on starts next week, IM excited lol
[Nexus 6P General] WoodroweBones:
Honestly it wasnt all that interesting.... you arent missing much
[Nexus 6P General] PlatinumNick:
tell me how i can do that and i can try
[Nexus 6P General] M@rs:
Videocacheview is a program which scan your browser cache for videos. It's easy too use. There is a scan button, just press it and it starts searching. When it's finished there's a list with all viewable videos in cache.
[Nexus 6P General] Slimgym20:
That video is just a normal unboxing. Not much more than we've already seen. The good news is it looks like companies are starting to get the phones to review.

[Nexus 6P General] MYxdaUSERNAME:
Literally nothing we haven't seen already. The reviewers at the Indian launch had just as much in their hands-on and unboxing reviews as the video that went private.

I think maybe it was a test on their part to see if they could generate a little hype for themselves before the NDA lifts, that or it was an honest mistake because it literally showed nothing different from the event videos we've all watched. I guess literally doesn't quite apply, because each phone came with its own case, but the cases didn't get any real coverage.
[Nexus 6P General] Moondawgy:
looks like MKBHD. everyone knows he already have one nexus 6p to use for his review. probably just can't release the video until google says so
[Nexus 6P General] stevew84:
Its not, but it is another black guy.
[Nexus 6P General] WoodroweBones:
This is the unboxing video that was linked earlier and then went private. Not MBKHD
[Nexus 6P General] exSD:
All you had to do is look at the fingernails to know it's not MKBHD. Just because he's black you say it's him. :rolleyes:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] kriscris:
I am taking over my son's S4. I know it is on 4.4.2, rooted and running a safestap custom rom. Otherwise I know nothing else. Phone works fine I just want to take it back to stock for my own use and if I want to tinker with it more I will.

Can I just use one of the ODin tar's back to stock and let it OTA to current or will something special need to be done? If so which one? I am fine with a full wipe if needed.

Any help greatly appreciated and thanks in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
Note that if you really want lollipop, you have no way of going back unless you use minuz_ri's method or Stangs stock modded debloated ROM

Before I add more, what ROM exactly?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] kriscris:
I think Hyperdrive but I dont really know.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tshelby73:
Download cpu-z from play store it will tell you what bootloader your on. My bet is nc5 or nk4. If it's either one you can flash the nc5 Odin and still root using towel root.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistahgook:
I'm experiencing strange behavior with the Samsung Calendar Widget (all of them). For some reason, it compresses when scrolling through the home screens and looks squished. Sometimes it even stays compressed. See below screenshot to see what I'm talking about.

Resizing the widget doesn't do anything. Also rebooting doesn't fix it either. At some random point it will revert itself to normal. However I can't seem to find a fix as of yet.

Also the Samsung Calendar Widget is the only Widget that exhibits the above behavior.

Anyone else experience this?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SwoodGrommet:
I recently flashed my GT-i9506 and installed CyanogenMod. After finishing, the back and menu buttons (more often the menu button) kept getting pressed with the backlight on and vibrations too without me touching them. The weird thing is that while I was trying to fix it by going to various recovery modes after constantly switching the problem happened there too. The screen was recently replaced but I don't recall this happening at all on the stock ROM after the repairment.

Here's what happened:

I used Heimdall to flash TeamWin recovery but kept getting a common problem with PIT files while in download mode (can't post links because I'm a new user)

I compiled SaburoJiro's Heimdall fork as suggested and that seemed to fix the issue. TeamWin recovery was flashed succesfully.

I flashed the official CyanogenMod rom for gt-i9506 following the instructions on their wiki page. Everything seemed to work fine up until the point where the OS started up.

What I tried:

Tried various recovery images including TeamWin and ClockworkMod Recovery. The problem happens on both.

Used both Odin and Heimdall to flash.

Factory resets and cache clearing

A temporary solution is to enable the on screen navbar, which disabled the hardware keys which were causing the problem. The keys still keep lighting up while the screen is on but they don't do anything.

Is there any way to restore the phone beyond recovery mode (which this seems to happen in too)? I'm pretty sure this isn't a hardware issue.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
It's 100% a hardware issue. No software would cause this and even then it also happens in recovery. It's impossible to have the same behavior in recovery and in normal android without it being a hardware issue.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PePeMoke:
I think Lennyz knows best but did you erased the internal storage too while doing a factory reset?

I've got some strage issues after I flashed a ROM and I could resolve it when I erased the internal storage too on factory reset.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SwoodGrommet:
Okay, I guess something went wrong when the screen was repaired. I'll call the company that fixed it later. Is there no possible way that any software can enable these buttons?

I factory reset a couple of times using both ClockworkMod and TeamWin. It still kept all the images from the camera though. How would you erase all internal storage using ClockworkMod? Format /system? Or perharps just /data and /storage/sdcard1? Asking since I don't want to brick my phone by doing something I shouldn't be doing.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PePeMoke:
For CWM I do not know..

I use TWRP and there you can select what should be wiped under "advanced wipe".

You can select system, boot, data, cache and internal storage.

If you got TWRP use this!

Note that everything on your phone will be deleted including custom recovery.

You'll have to flash it again via Odin afterwards.

Then flash the ROM and Gapps via custom recovery.

I do not know whether this will solve the problem because it really could be a hardware issue as Lennyz said..

Maybe you should wait with that after the company repaired it again.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
It's possible but not in your case. There is no software booted when you are in the recovery except the recovery itself.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adambrooker101:
i had an s3 which was already rooted and i swapped roms regularly but i didnt root it.i sold it and bought a note 3 and wanted to root it.it was my first time rooting and i used odin3 and it worked ,i checked root with root checker,i installed twrp through a playstore app called' twrp manager(root) ' or something like that.it said failed but there was an option to test it anyway so i tried and twrp recovery worked so i didnt look into the 'failed' message

i downloaded cyenogen mod 12.1 for note 3 to get android 5.1.1 and i also downloaded gapps,now i wiped dalvik cache,cache,factory reset but also system by mistake so im not sure if that caused the issues.i wiped that stuff and flashed cm12.1 then gapps and restarted,BAM shows samsung galaxy note 3 sm-n900 info then just a black screen,i restart same deal,re-flash but still same issue

i downloaded a rom called ressurection remix v5.5.6 and wiped then flashed and same thing,phones info logo then black screen

please help me. i have note 3 sm-n900
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herna:
Hi, this is herna from XDA Assist.

This seems a weird issue. I guess that probably you did not install the correct kernel or used the recommended recovery, but seeing you got to flash this becomes more strange. My first suggestion would be you to wipe data the phone, and flash only the cyanogenmod nightly zip. That´s personal suggestion.

Now, I´m going to move your thread to the general section of the Galaxy Note 3, where Galaxy Note 3 owners and members would kindly help you if they can so you can.

Next time, if you have any issue, please create the thread if is necessary on the section this thread is going to be moved.

Good luck!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Valtekken:
First of all, this is my first post on this forum, so I'd like to say hello to everybody.

I made a bit of a mess with my father's phone (it was mine before he had it, so it was already modded), and the explanation will be somewhat long because I tried everything before coming here for help.

This phone had Android 5.1.1 Lollipop, installed through the official Cyanogenmod 12.1 Nightlies. It was working perfectly, but I wanted to install more Gapps on the /system partition and switch some of the original Cyanogenmod apps with the corresponding Google apps. I used Deltadroid's modular Gapps (Thread here: http://xdaforums.com/android/software/app-minimal-gapps-gapps-lp-20150107-1-t2997368) to install everything I needed on the /system partition, but I only did a factory reset+cache wipe instead of wiping the /system partition too and starting from scratch, because I couldn't find the option to wipe the /system partition in the "stock" Cyanogen Recovery. Now the phone will boot, enter recovery mode and even get to the setup screen, but as soon as the Google Play Services are needed, they crash and the setup won't go on. I tried installing the CWM but the signature check fails every time, I tried using ADB but I'm no expert and I don't know how to make it work, I tried reinstalling the ROM and wiping /data and /cache once again to no avail, I tried basically everything but it seems the only thing that can be done is wiping the /system partition and reinstalling both the ROM, the Gapps and the add-ons.

The problem is, I have no idea how to wipe the /system partition, so I was wondering if anyone here could help.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noppy22:
Hi [MENTION=6990273]Valtekken[/MENTION]

You just need to have a "signed" .zip to flash through that recovery. Try the philz 6.48.4 attached here. I have heard of a few people not being able to flash this one, if it doesn't install, use the other one first, reboot to recovery, and then flash 6.48.4. So -

1. Flash the philz recovery

2. Reboot to recovery, not system

2a. (Flash the other one, reboot to recovery [if you used XWMS3 first])

3. Do your wipes(you should only need to wipe /system if you want to keep your data, but I always recommend a clean install if possible - /data, /cache, and dalvik/art cache as well)

4. Install the new CM12.1 and gapps

BTW the gapps you can flash will depend on whether or not you have repartitioned. If you have stock /system partition just install a pico or minimal gapps
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Valtekken:
First of all, thank you for answering!

I tried many "-signed" .zips, but none of them worked, so I'll assume I used non-compatible ones. There was space for the Gapps on the /system partition, mainly because I made sure of getting only the Gapps and the few addons I needed, so the MB count was very low.

I'll try your recovery right now and let you know in a moment, hopefully this solves the problem and I can have the phone working again.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Valtekken:
Managed to install the recovery, format the /system, /data and /cache partitions, install the rom, the Gapps and the add-ons. It worked, but the phone still gives me an "Unfortunately, Google Play Services has stopped". How can I get the apps to work? What could the problem be?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Valtekken:
I solved the problem, finally...I changed the Gapps package (I used TK's Gapps) and managed to install it and make everything work.

Thanks for all your help! I think the thread can be closed now.

Sorry being a little late, was some kind of busy.

I´ll move this thread to the Xperia Z2 thread where people should tell you how to flash from your PC the stock version of latest official Sony build for your device, which should solve any of the problems you have.

Seems just your device got some weird error, and the best thing to do when you face this kind of things is just flash clean stock.

I have used CM12.1 , IronRom for my tablet.

I don't know why, but CM 12.1 mad my tablet very hot. (I never had that problem before)

IronRom is pretty nice, but I need the feature that CM 12.1 had (in notification bar, you can change what Wifi router that you are connected) becuase I have 3 routers in my house, and I constantly have to connect to the nearest router.

I really don't need split-screen multitasking nor touchwiz.

[Google Chromecast] ronval:
Hi,

First of all, I hope that's the right place for this thread.

I bought a new Chromecast and also I have an old Galaxy S4.

I wanted to make the S4 a Kodi/XBMC device, always connected to the chromecast.

So I was casting the S4 screen using the Chromecast app.

Later on, I started the Kodi app, and that worked pretty good.

The problem starts when I play a video, lets say a TV show or a movie.

On the S4, the quality of the video is great, but on my TV the video is pixelated.

That pretty much ruined my whole plan with the Chromecast...

Any idea what's the problem? and how can I fix this?

Thank you very much!
[Google Chromecast] BraianV:
I dont have that peoblem using both chromecast and s4.

Maybe Tour Internet speed is low or you have them both on a bad reception place.

Well, the quality on my s4 is great, like 720 HD should be...

Maybe any settings I'm missing to make it work properly?
