[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dekan54:
I have an Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 (9.7) and I have noticed two very small indicators (or LEDS????) at the very top of frame. I have yet to see them light up or flash or ????

Anybody know what they are for?

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phil_man:
Just near the Samsung logo? Light sensors (left) and front camera (right). You never read the owner manual and you still have a 3310 Nokia? :D
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dekan54:
Nope - I know what those are.... Above the Samsung name in the frame of the tablet. They are definitely not a camera.

They are not in the glass front of the tablet. A picture might help -

Hi,

I am looking for new mobile for special use- as adittional security device in my car. Currently I use Nexus 5+ Cerberus and all works great except of battery life(my nexus lasts max 24hours) and constantly problems with GPS/GSM signal(I have this problems with my Nexus from the beginning and even replacement device did not help- it is fact that Nexus 5 has worse signal than other phones I am used to)

What mobile phone do you recommend me to buy with for example 3000mAh battery, very good GPS and GSM signal?

Let's say price up to 300USD

Thank you

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgub:
I am at my wits end with this.

I have a rooted M9 and it is currently a developer edition which i converted from an AT&T edition. I had some issues with rooting my phone prior because I could not get fastboot to work when phone was in bootloader mode. I used another pc and installed adb fastboot and it worked.

Now I am trying to flash stock recovery to receive updates and now with with both of my computers I am unable to command when phone is in bootloader or download mode. I have installed and reinstalled all the necessary drivers many times and it will not work.

I would really appreciate someones help. Thanks.

Also I am unable to uninstall HTC Drivers in my control panel on my PC. It gives me an error as if I need another piece of software to uninstall it. I don't know if that is an issue.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_305:
Hello,

you clearly have got a problem with your computers. Remove adb+fastboot and all phone-drivers from your computer. Also other (HTC, Samsung, LG etc.) programs.

Than get adb+fastboot here(Code1) and install it. Plug in your phone and let Windows install it. After that get this HTC-driver (Code2) and install it.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Note44:
I have decided to root my Note 4 after seeing all these huge permissions lists for just about every app (I understand something like a flashlight app needing your camera or a speed checker needing Wifi but why stuff like contacts, browsing history, bookmarks, IMEI number...) Coming from iPhone it was really shocking considering you have the option to on&off those permissions when opening the app or in settings, but this is just take it all or leave it. Other than XPrivacy and maybe adblock i have no interest in doing anything else with root.

So what I would like to know is if anyone have any advice. I am a complete N00B at android and since this is a new and expensive device I am obviously very cautious. My previous phone was jailbroken but this seems like an entirely different thing.

There was not much info about rooting Note 4 5.1.1 except for these 2 links but I am not sure how reliable they are or how to judge them as they are not a lot of comments, maybe someone more experienced than me can tell. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpsGX_Xoxcg https://www.reddit.com/r/galaxynote4/comments/3j9gp6/how_to_root_n910f_with_stock_511_xxu1coh4/

I am using mac so it says it need to get Jodin3, but the download link seems to be offline http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2598203 http://goo.im/devs/AdamOutler/JOdin3

It seems that 5.1.1 is kind of new so is it worth waiting a bit and seeing or do the links above seem reliable.

Also I understand this void the warranty with Knox and everything but what about insurance.

Sorry if this question seems really dumb, like i said i am a complete N00B.

Also sorry if I posted this in the the wrong thread, new to this forum also.

Hi There.

I seem to be having an issue with Memory cards.

I have an Orange UK SPV 3100, and basically it doesn't pickup the memorycard is even there. I just bought a new card, thinking it was the cheap nasty other one, but it still doesnot work. I have tried formatting it as fat and Fat32, but it doesnot pickup either. The screen lights up when you insert the card tho! Very annoying nd weird!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
I remember way back when I got mine. To get it recognised I did a hard reset and since then no problems.

It might be worth a full power off and on again with card inserted before trying a hard reset - Long press power button til the warning message, say ok to close down and then long press to restart.

hi, i tried the 2015-10-03 nightly of cm and the gps doesnt work.

(i also tried booting into stock rom and getting a gps lock. then installing cm without wiping cache. but still no joy)

i also tried with slimkat rom and gps also doesnt work.

is there a way to use gps on an alternate rom or did samsung do something defensive to the gps module so that it only activates with touchwiz ?

thanks,

Marshmallow has Doze. People are reporting that they only lose 5% battery when they set down their phone unplugged overnight.

That's funny, because when I set down my phone unplugged, it gains battery charge. In fact, overnight, it goes all the way to 100%.

So far Verizon and t-mobile are the only note 4s confirmed to be being worked on. Until we actually see an rdf pop up I wouldn't get your hopes up.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] DaggettBeaver:
Meh, I'm probably not even going to take the update when it's released. I lay my phone down on a wireless charger, so Doze isn't going to make any difference to me.

Has Samsung actually stopped Note 4 production? I know Verizon is offering a current promo for it along with Samsung. (They are still stuck on 5.0)
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] DaggettBeaver:
I have no interest in getting MM right now. When they've ironed out the bugs and made some things more convenient (I don't want it popping up requests for permissions for all my apps), I'll consider upgrading. I have no need for Doze. Wireless charging >> Doze. People with Doze set down their phones and the battery discharges slower. I set my phone down on the wireless charger, and the battery charge increases.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] Invisibility:
That's great and all but fyi constantly charging your battery before it's dead can f**k it up. Soooo doze > wireless charging
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] DaggettBeaver:
So your battery dies sooner? So, what? That's especially irrelevant in the Note 4, where you can just swap in a new battery. And with other phones, local shops around here will replace a battery for about $45. The point is, my phone will always have more of a charge than those that rely solely on Doze.

By the way, I've had my Galaxy S3 on a wireless charger 24/7 (I use it on my nightstand as an Internet radio player, alarm clock, etc.) since forever. The original battery just died last week. 3.5 years is a pretty good battery life.

http://blogs.sonymobile.com/2015/10/06/sony-xperia-and-android-6-0-marshmallow/

Sony has released their 6.0 roadmap, and M2 / M2 Aqua is not included.

Xperia Z5, Xperia Z5 Compact, Xperia Z5 Premium, Xperia Z4 Tablet, Xperia Z3+, Xperia Z3, Xperia Z3 Compact, Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact, Xperia Z2, Xperia Z2 Tablet, Xperia M5, Xperia C5 Ultra, Xperia M4 Aqua and Xperia C4 are going to get the upgrade.
[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
It was expected. But what I didn't expect tho is that the E3, E4, and T3 never recived a single major update (They were all released with KK, RIP!).

At least we have a working, stable & Sony Stock 5.1.1 Lollipop (And developers are also working on cROMS with camera!) :)
[Sony Xperia M2] aidy.lucas:
I knew that anyway, T3 just wasn't a popular enough device there's less than 800 registered users on sonys support forum worldwide I've only seen one in pictures. Also been trying to tell people in the xperia groups on g+ for weeks that the z and z1 wouldn't get it not that they'd believe me.

[Sony Xperia M2] SpectreXM8:
Well, i had no hopes for the regular M2 since it`s past its support period (18 months for mid rangers), had a minor hope for the M2 Aqua since it`s newer. Anyway, the M2 had a good life, and indeed, 5.1 is stable and perfectly optimized (just as fast as the Motorola G 2014, a friend of mine has it so we compared). Hopefully they update it with a fix for the kswapd0 process sitting at 40-50% all the time and draining battery. Still getting 1 day out of it with normal/heavy usage, so it`s not a deal-breaker.

As far as the E series are concerned, budget phones never get proper support, OEMs make nothing n terms of profit from them, hence the lack of support. Even Mototorola, who IMHO, has the best trakrecord when it comes to updates besides the Nexus line, dropped support for the budget E line (2014 and 2015) models.
[Sony Xperia M2] aidy.lucas:
I will certainly be paying the extra come upgrade time to get the best Xperia device I can afford.

[Sony Xperia M2] francoivan:
I know the 18 month support its over, but I still have a hope on the good old M2, just because the release of Android M preview on the developer section. That's how it started with Lollipop. So, even if I'm pretty happy with stock 5.1.1 (except for the camera), I would be pretty positive about getting a late release of M.

the good news is xm2 changed cm12.1 alpha to beta :D almost fully working, and waiting for cm13 , thanks cm team veryyy
[Sony Xperia M2] Miche1asso:
It has been reported by [MENTION=6966272]semil[/MENTION] and confirmed by [MENTION=4787101]linuxct[/MENTION] that changing the swappiness value to something between 40-60 improves it (with zram enabled). Obviously you need root. Just make a /etc/init.d script with the following line

sysctl -w vm.swappiness=60

(you can change 60 to 40 or else while testing) or add it to /etc/init.d/00stop_ric. It changed f. nothing to my phone, though. It's driving me mad.

Anyway, 18 months support is pure bollocks. It should be at least 2 years (but I'd say 3), for all phones respecting the minimum requirements. The Xperia Z is still a great phone, I'm sure it will be more capable than some new low range phones that will have Android M pre installed.

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wintermute0:
Hey guys, question for you all.

I was going thru a difficult period financially a few months ago and I decided to borrow some money against my tablet. Meanwhile, the recall happened and I recieved my replacement unit and activated it before I have picked up my tablet from the pawn shop.

I'm about to go receive my belongings from the store and what I would like to know is how I can get around the kill switch. From what I understand the kill switch is sent via an OTA update that automatically restarts the tablet and bricks it once installed. My tablet is running stock firmware with whatever the latest version was two months ago before I brought it to the pawn shop.

How can avoid the kill switch? I'm afraid as soon as I turn it on its going to,brick itself.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amartolos:
I don't know how tech-savvy you are, and I don't know about your prior experience with tools like fastboot etc. But if your old tablet was never powered on and connected to wifi for the past 2 months, you can boot into the bootloader and use fastboot to:

1. unlock bootloader (will also wipe your device)

2. flash a custom recovery (e.g. TWRP)

3. boot into recovery and delete the TegraOTA folder or apk or both.

There has been a gigantic thread about how to kill the kill switch... If that gets hard to understand, you can ask Google for assistance ;)

(needless to say, if you don't have a clue what I'm talking about, maybe ask a tech friend to do this for you in exchange for a free drink or something)
