Changed my mind...dual SIM is now the solution!

Thanks Guys :)

I came up with a different solution though. A Dual SIM adapter. One for my workplace SIM and I'll buy another PAYG SIM with the cheapest data charges and switch between them when I want to make data calls etc. Seems like an ideal solution :) However, that opens another can of worms....

Which Dual SIM adapter do I get? It has to fit the SPV M600 (HTC Prophet) and I like the idea of being able to switch SIMs whilst the unit is online but I understand these ones really drain the battery. The other one, I understand, does not require power but to switch SIMs, you have to power the phone (or is it unit?) off and on again. Hardly an elegant solution! :)

I've never had a phone do this... I have 0 sound in phone calls, but only in phone calls, not on headset or either on board speakers.....I have sound on all other apps....now as well as no sound, phone calls crash and reboot my phone everytime.

I have the Verizon note 3

Hope this helps.

1. Install android sdk and use the included install manager in the sdk to install the latest google usb drivers and platform tools (platform tools include fastboot and adb). Make sure adb and fastboot directory is in your Path variable as well.

2.Download latest stock image for Nexus 9 from google: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images?hl=en

3.Download latest twrp (here is the latest right now 10/6/2015): http://xdaforums.com/nexus-9/orig-development/recovery-twrp-2-8-2-0-touch-recovery-t2944788

4.Download either a stock boot image with the no- forceencrypt flag set or a kernel with the no-forceencrypt flag set

a.I use the elementalx kernel (10/6/2015): http://xdaforums.com/nexus-9/orig-development/kernel-elementalx-n9-0-02-alpha-t2931657

b.A stock kernel for the MRA58K build with the no-forceencrypt flag set can be found here (boot.zip): http://xdaforums.com/nexus-9/general/marshmallow-factory-images-available-t3218290/page3

5.Download the latest supersu that works with nexus (beta now) : http://xdaforums.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133

6.Make sure you have usb debugging enabled and ability to unlock bootloader (android developer options menu on nexus).

7.Unzip the 6.0 stock image into a folder and open a command window in the folder.

8.Type the following:

a.adb reboot bootloader, wait until nexus boots into bootloader

b.fastboot oem unlock

c.flash-all, now wait a few minutes while the stock image flashes

9.At this point your nexus will reboot. Once you’re started, up you need to again enable usb debugging and the ability to unlock your bootloader in the android developer options menu. Now type the following to flash TWRP:

a.adb reboot bootloader, wait until nexus boots into bootloader

b.fastboot flash recovery twrp.img (or whatever the image filename is from the twrp download).

10.Important: now make sure you boot DIRECTLY into TWRP via the button combination (power and volume down), a fastboot command, or the fastboot menu. If you don’t TWRP will be deleted and you’ll need to reflash using the last step.

11.Once in TWRP, hit “cancel” when asked for the password and then erase/wipe data and make sure MTP is enabled (dig around the menus in TWRP, it’s all in there somewhere). This erases the encrypted partition and allows you to use adb to push files to your sdcard.

12.Now type adb push supersufile.zip /sdcard/supersufile.zip, make sure you’re typing from the correct directory.

13.Install supersu via the install menu on TWRP.

14.You now need to install a kernel with the no-forceencrypt flag set:

a.If you want to install a custom kernel (like elementalx), type adb push elementalxfile.zip /sdcard/elementalxfile.zip, make sure you’re typing from the correct directory. Then use TWRP to install the zip from your sdcard.

b.If you want to install the modified stock boot.img then unzip the boot.zip, boot back into the bootloader and type: fastboot flash boot boot.img. Make sure you do NOT boot back into the android OS before doing this step or you'll have to reflash twrp.

Reboot and you’re good to go.

Thank you

You can't just flash latest stable SuperSU, you need SuperSU 2.50+ beta and a modified boot.img. Instructions here: http://xdaforums.com/apps/supersu/wip-android-6-0-marshmellow-t3219344
[Nexus 9 General] gt43aw:
I flashed the latest supersu and the latest elementalx kernel.... been running it since about an hour after elementalx kernel for 6.0 final was posted....... everything seems to be working fine. Are you sure? Maybe i'm having no problems with supersu because i'm using elementalx? let me know the reason, i'll check it out on my tablet and see if i can reproduce, and if so i'll modify the guide. But after about a day and a half use, i've had no issues. thx for quality checking.

[Nexus 9 General] tdct12:
Am I missing something?

can I not just do a wipe and flash the img with twrp like a custom rom? Edit: Got it working. For me it was much easier to use this as opposed to the android sdk, because it would not detect my version of java. From there I followed your instructions, mostly. Putting the files you posted inside the directory the mini adb client allowed the flash-all command to work. From there I followed chainfire's instructions on the latest SU. Everything seems to be running smoothly. Thanks for the initiative, OP :good:
[Nexus 9 General] dkryder:
i used supersu 2.52 due to it seems be be required by the guides and i get the notification that the binary needs to be updated. i have not done that yet. is updating the binary something i should try to do? or, if not is it ok to turn off notifications from supersu? thanks.
[Nexus 9 General] madbat99:
Of course update binaries. Choose normal method.
[Nexus 9 General] gh.rohit:
I was facing same issue, then updated fastboot(android-sdk) and flash-all script worked fine for me.
[Nexus 9 General] Verttex:
That should work as well. That sequence of commands should work with any fastboot version. Just make sure to flash the vendor.img, some scripts don't use that as it's only used for the Nexus 9.

Why so complicated? I just installed [MENTION=587264]wug[/MENTION]'s NRT toolkit(on a Venue8 pro) and it did everything for me. Now im on rooted stock 6.0 with disabled encryption. Only thing i needed to do is to flash latest super su beta 2.52, that's it.
[Nexus 9 General] caolfin:
i did all this, no worries and no error messages

i did fastboot reboot

now I am in a weird loop of

- google screen

- your device is corrupt

- google screen

- twrp (it flashes quite quickly, error messages on mounting everything and last line says something about renaming and something about stock rom)

loop

any ideas ?
[Nexus 9 General] Verttex:
Did you make sure to flash vendor.img?

You might try flashing the regular recovery first and then boot in, turn on oem unlock and adb, and then flash twrp and modified boot.img, then reboot into twrp (don't boot normally or it will erase twrp) and flash SuperSU.
[Nexus 9 General] caolfin:
yes, that seems to have been it

flashing TWRP seems to have been the problem so I have left everything as stock until root etc works on the stovk kernel

thanks for your help

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rahul_roy:
There is a 1 or 2 sec delay when I press the Recents key and the recent apps show up. I used Gravity for Lollipop Xposed module to test changing it to double tap and it opens up immediately. The same happens for anything that is assigned to single press be it Menu, recent apps etc. All open immediately on double tap but have a delay with single press. Is there a way to remove this delay by editing some config file or by using some app/xposed module?

Hello, so yesterday I saw that the LG F60 had an update released. So I went along and installed it. After it finished installing it rebooted and it went straight to my twrp (TeamWin) and it started to flash a file. I have no idea what that file was, but after it flashed the file it rebooted back into twrp. After that happened I tried rebooting but it just kept taking me to the damn twrp.

Any way I can fix this?

[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToYeD:
So I rooted and wanted to set the screen PPI/DPI to the actual calculated value of 400-403 (Motorola says it's 403 but the actual calculated value is 400.53). Problem is, it screws up the icons in the camera app and Google Search bar on the homecreen. I've attached screenshots to show you what I mean, but I'm sure most of you are aware of this happening as it tends to when you lower the DPI/PPI. The screens of the screwed icons are at 403 DPI/PPI and the screens where the icons are fine are at the default 480 DPI/PPI.

Does anyone know of a way to fix this? Or is it just something that can't be helped at lower DPI/PPI values?
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LuizHenrique91:
How did you change your DPI? I read that the adb method alone is not enough. You must change the value on build.prop too. Making the two things may work.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abravanelsenor:

[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hshaikh:
I'm using 440. Stock is 480. If you in increments of 40 it works. Try 400
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bablu048:
Mother of all ad blocking ???:D:D

PPI is a hardware component i.e how many pixels are there in a inch of screen.

DPI is a software component in broad terms i.e how much area a software is allocated. so changing it to too low will have bad effects.

change the DPI to 430-440 it looks nice and it will solve your problem.

---------- Post added at 06:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:23 AM ----------

it would be easy if you are rooted. simply go to /system/build.prop and look for ''ro.sf.lcd_density=480'' and change it accordingly.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikolov47:
It's 403,5.... The screen is not exactly 5.5 inches
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToninhoTavares:
Do what I did, install the AppSettings via Xposed, choose the DPI you want normally in build.prop, In the AppSettings settings, select Motorola Camera and place it in the DPI 480 (stock), so I use here without problems.

You need to work out logically what is using your battery first, very likely a certain wakelock or mod keeping your phone awake.

Only after you have determined that it is not a software related issue can you assume that it is a hardware problem.

So apparently the official android marshmallow 6.0 is finally out today on the Nexus 5/6/9, so I decided to go ahead and search for reviews and I stumbled upon this video it's Nexus 6 on M (3gb ram) vs note 5 on Lollipop (4gb of ram) keep in mind it's also running TouchWiz and it's leaving nexus 6 marshmallow 6.0 in the dust... whyyy!!! So what can I expect from my new Nexus 5x 2gbs... I know I know... it's been discussed before and it's said that it would be fine but....guys I'm starting to reconsider my purchase as much as I wanted to love my phone I knew the truth would come out and everyone that was complaining about 2gbs of ram was right.... if the vanilla android 3gbs of ram is losing to touch wiz 4gbs than imagine only 2gbs...?

Please leave your feedback after watching this video... I'm really scared...thanks in advance!!
[Nexus 5X General] 95Z28:
I didn't bother watching the video, all I'm going to say is wait until you have the phone in hand and get to try it yourself before passing judgement. If you don't like the performance you have 2 weeks to return for a refund. I'm one of the individuals that wanted the 5X to have 3GB RAM, but less because its actually needed at this point and more for future proofing. The N5 is still a smooth running excellent phone at 2 years old, I'm not sure the same will be said of the 5X in 2017, but I'm still looking forward to having a nexus again.
[Nexus 5X General] H0tep:
I thought the nexus 6 compared well to the note 5. Hard to believe that was stock marshmallow and not the dev preview. The lag and black screens that happen before launching apps don't happen on my Nex5 while on 6.0. My Nex5 I think was almost as fast as the note 5.
[Nexus 5X General] 0.0:
I, too, am with you on this. I'm on the n5 and marshmallow has been good in terms of smoothness. There are some minor problems but that's expected for a new major release

[Nexus 5X General] _jordan_:
Ram has nothing to do with what you saw in this video.

The note 5 has the best processor of 2015... (1.9ghz 14nm chip). This is why its so much faster than the nexus 6 which uses a much older 28nm chip.

So should I be scared of an SD808 vs the big brother SD810??

[Nexus 5X General] bstosnbata:
If anything, people are actually having issues with the 810 because it gets too hot.
[Nexus 5X General] 0.0:
SD810 allows for EIS, the smart burst feature, and slo-mo @ 240fps on the 6P. If you don't care about that stuff then SD808 is fine
[Nexus 5X General] Tidbits:
I consider it to be the fact the Nexus 6 is probably stock so the device has encryption enabled. So it isn't really a fair comparison. I would like to see the Note 5 encryption enabled then done again.

[Nexus 5X General] peachpuff:
That note 5 has the fastest soc out there and the fastest ufs storage of any android phone, so it'll have no trouble launching apps quickly, the amount of ram has nothing to do with this.

Why are you even trying to compare this to the 5x? The 5x has a slower cpu, slower storage, slower ddr3 ram... of course it'll be slower, doesn't matter if it has the latest os either. You want the fastest phone out there? Its called the s6/note5.

Its still a bug, some people on the nexus 5 didn't experience it, some did, nothing could explain that. The note 5 clearly has it, my friends asus zenfone 2 and nexus 7 doesn't have it, go figure.
[Nexus 5X General] Tidbits:
It's not a bug for the Note 5. All a person needs to do for the Note 5 is change some things a viola never happens again. It requires root and Samsung just has their memory management too aggressive.

I've been using M on and off since the first preview image. I'm now running the official one and its 1*10^99999999999 better than the Note 4 or any other TW infested phone. I have no lag, get great battery life and overall it's very smooth.
[Nexus 5X General] dookie23:
I would say 2GB of ram is good for now and with this version of Marshmallow. When multi-window mode is finally supported in Android, I am not so sure that 2GB ram is enough.
[Nexus 5X General] Oni_Shadow:
multi-windows mode is supported since last century on desktop, before RAM reached 1Gib so... I think 2 Gib can be enough for the next two years (and I hope it will for the next 4). You will never use more than 2 apps at the same time on a device that small....
[Nexus 5X General] dookie23:
My usage could be different than others but I wish multi-windows mode was already included in every Android device! I find switching windows in and out is a pain when doing copy-n-paste! It's such a simple task but just too many steps required. App 1 copy --> Click tasks button --> find App 2 --> paste.
[Nexus 5X General] Oni_Shadow:
I do agree, I am just saying that you typically do that between two apps at the same time.

My usage is also probably very different than other but i cannot imagine somebody using 4 apps at the same time on a 5 or 6" device.

I've had consistently patchy call quality since day one on my UK T-Mobile Hermes. Recently it's been worse than ever. What I've noticed is that it has nothing to do with how many reception bars the phone is showing, but when I quit all the open apps it improves. It also fluctuates moment by moment in a call. Having a 3G connection online also seems to make it worse. This is shoddy of course, the phone should work independently of the rest of the system, but I'm not surprised. Just wondered if anyone else had noticed the effect of the PDA side of the device affecting the phone side in this way.
