you can probably find the stock update files in the g3 forum too, if you have mods or whatever and cant take the update.

[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcolorenzo:
Hey guys, I just saw that 5.1.1 has been available for my N915G for some time now. I would like to ask how people are feeling about it in terms of performance? I was on 5.0.1 awhile back and it was so laggy and slow that I eventually downgraded to 4.4.4 (at times, I wouldn't even be able to answer calls because the phone would ring but the phone was so laggy that the screen wouldn't turn on until after they hung up).

I'm very happy with the performance of 4.4.4 now but I do like the features in Lollipop so I just wanted to ask if it's safe to jump back in? I heard that it's not possible to downgrade after flashing 5.1.1 so I need to be sure before taking the dive. Thanks a lot in advance!
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klect:
Phone works really smooth, no lag at all! Even multitask works really well
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcolorenzo:
Thanks for the reply. Although I am always a little cautious when I hear people say there's no lag at all. I have never had a non-stock Android phone that was lag free (well, with the exception of my old Z1 Compact maybe). Even on 4.4.4 where the performance is far better than on 5.0.1, there is noticeable but tolerable lag at times. But still, I'm glad to hear you're having a good experience on it!

how did you update 5.1.1, I'm on 5.0.1 and OTA doesn't show any update available?
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcolorenzo:
It depends on what version of the Note Edge you're on. Mine is SM-N915G (yours could be 9150, 915F, 915FY etc.) and sammobile.com listed 5.1.1 as being available. Then you need to flash it through odin. There are tons of guides around for that if you do find a compatible firmware for you.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sarfrazhc:
I have 915G. Can you please provide any updated working guide /links?
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcolorenzo:
Well I haven't done it yet myself but I'm pretty sure it works the same way as with previous firmwares. There are heaps of guides here and elsewhere that describe the steps to using Odin such as this one. And get the firmware from here.

Question for the more knowledgeable people: Does the baseband version on my current firmware have to match with the one I'm trying to flash from Sammobile?
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultramag69:
Shouldn't matter, it's the "G" that's important.

There is both a Telstra rom and a generic rom of 5.1.1 so you should be good to go.

If you want to get root access you will need to flash a 5.1.1 root enabled kernel however...
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pecholino:
Hi!

I have broken the display on my Z2.

I have ordered a new one online and changed it. Soon I realized it's not working properly (ghost touches and unresponsive screen). After looking for a solution, I found out that this may be a grounding problem.

Since i saw, that the new display didn't come with adhesive covers for the chips on the flex cable, i have fitted them from the original display, but the problem still persists.

So how do I properly ground the display?

Does the bottom metal part of the display flex cable, have to touch the metal part of the frame? I suspect that sometimes it doesnt (new display didn't have the grey adhesive, the original had - but I can't remove it). Do I have to fix it with some kind of conducting adhesive?.

What about the top metal part of the display flex cable? Must it touch (ground) somwhere or it's not neccessary?.

Do I have to be carefull that some parts of the flex cable doesnt touch some other part of the phone?

BTW, I know the display isn't faulty because if I remove the back cover, sometimes i get perfect screen rensponse (maybe i ground it with my hand).

Thanks in advance.

Only the 4 at 1.69 Ghz works

The 4 at 2.1 Ghz never used

Try CPU-Z to show activity.

Cpu-z will never show all 8 working cores. For that app no need such performance. To check it out try use some cpu freq recorder an launch some heavy app.

So tell me why with flyme i have 50 000 point with antutu and with cm12.1 only 20 000?!
[Meizu MX] Naphtha:
When MX4 in flyme have 50 000 score? In Meizu tests? are you kidding? LOL. When the MX4 come in my hands gimme 32000 - 38000 max scores . If you need good score on antutu and not good stable rom with durable battery can go back to the flyme ;)

I confirm around 49000 with flyme 4.5.6i in performance mode. Even if a AnTuTu test does not reflect the fluidity of the device.

I know it's really great like that but...

It say Meizu Mx4 8 cores i want 8 cores xDD and i can't revert to flyme so no bench for me.

And Naphta if you had 20 000 it's because you choose eco mode ^^

MX4 reachs more than 48000 easily [MENTION=6296892]Naphtha[/MENTION]

But in some lollipop roms some cores where turned off and only reached about 35000. But that was between flyme 4.5.1 to 4.5.4 roms aprox.

If with the last flyme rom a mx4 gets less than 45000 in preformance mode is because the phone is broken or something like that, believe me xD

Personally I dont like antutu to compare phones, the best are geekbench (cpu) and gfxbench (gpu)
[Meizu MX] Naphtha:
More people in CM thread talk about score on antutu under 38000 with flyme...all mx4 brocken?

They probably have the specific flyme roms with the score is lower

:good:
[Meizu MX] DJBrie:
Much as I don't like comparing benchmark scores, it does seem that only two of the big cores are used. This is what is saw looking at trickstermod with a benchmark running
[Meizu MX] ouigo:
The poor score on AnTuTu is caused by the activation of 6 cores only. The same problem was present on the first versions of FlyMe lollipop. We need to find how to reintegrate the performance mode.

[General Questions and Answers] kiwi_man:
Hi all.

So my mobile provider offers mobile data and what they call "socializer" data too. My current plan is 1.25gb of mobile and 1gb of socializer data. I know that you can set data caps on data so you don't exceed you monthly usage but I had an idea of an app that you can set data limits in and once that limit is reach only selected apps will use mobile data.

I know that IFTT is a very powerful app but didn't see anyway of cooking up such a recipe. Is there a way to do this with IFTT or is there any other app available that already does this? If so I haven't managed to find it. If I knew anything about app development I would be creating an app to do this myself but I know nothing of android development or app development.

Any one keen to have a go at creating an app like this or maybe tell me how I might go about developing this idea into a functional app??

Cheers all

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+] Dark Jedi:
Just wondering is it worth the extra dough to get the edge plus or just get the edge? In the market for a new phone and I am stuck on the two and the nexus 6 is catching my eye as I need to tether and I do have foxfi but more and more phones are not working on it. Please give me some info to help me choose. I was a die hard HTC fan but the past few phones has left a kinda sour taste in my mouth and need something new.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+] phiftyopz:
Its definitely worth the extra money for the plus. The only thing is if you are wondering if you can root it, the phone bricks itself and says you have rooted it. I think it forces you to do a factory reset to use the phone again. If you aren't a person who roots their devices, or you can live without rooting it, this is the perfect phone for you. I absolutely love this phone except for the whole root situation...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+] Dark Jedi:
I got the plus in the end. I have rooted my phone in the past but as long as foxfi works I have no need for root. I am enjoying this phone more than I thought I would
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+] thornev:
I was a rooter all the way but then realized I did it mostly to squeeze out every drop off performance. Edge+ is so fast that I don't miss rooting. And we can disable apps on this phone which does allow for even more performance. Octa-core rocks!

I need it, more performance is needed for me, it doesn't transition as smoothly as i thought it would, i still see stutters here and there, though the ram management is somewhat better than my previous phone, though it's still disappointing that even with 4gb of ram it doesn't hold apps in the background as well as the htc m9, battery life is somewhat a letdown as it's near the same or worse than my previous phone, though it could just be my phone probably has a defective battery. Just glad this thing has fast charge or else i would've thrown it away with frustration or returned it.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] papamalo:
On a phone that only has three gigs of RAM, (I got the 16 GB version, sue me) I knew there would be a little bit of tweaking involved.

Both chrome and Firefox, are highly functional, with social network sites like twitter, and facebook.

I realized my applications, were eating up nearly a gigabyte of RAM.

My simple tweak is this.

I deleted Facebook messenger, the Facebook app itself, and the twitter apps

I used chrome to go to Facebook, and sign in, and then saved it as a desktop button. (setting are the three dots, top right, selected "add to home screen")

One click and I'm back in Facebook. No app needed, and no RAM suck

Did the same thing with Twitter, and when I was done, I had nearly a gigabyte of free RAM on the phone, and the phone was seriously faster.

Hope it helps someone. I know there are people who get used to the UI of the apps, over the desktop sites, especially on mobile devices, but I barely noticed it.

It is basically using one app (your browser) instead of several apps. with previous versions of android, I got mixed results with this, but it seems to work really smoothly now

Thanks!
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] countryfolk07:
I do the same thing with anything that I can do using chrome, I don't get the app. Kind of pointless really. S you also noticed it frees up RAM, and on a side note without those apps running in the background constantly, it should save a little juice too!
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hbar98:
I used to do that, but I found that being able to share something to FB using the picker menu was more important. I don't use twitter, so that's a non-issue for me, and messenger doesn't seem to take up a lot of ram on my device?

Besides, with Android and other modern systems, unused ram is wasted ram.

Not saying that your experience isn't valid. I'm sure that it is. But for me, I'd rather have the functionality than obsessing over a few dropped frames while swiping through my homescreens.

'Besides, with Android and other modern systems, unused ram is wasted ram. "

True...
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] papamalo:
Well, I used to use a bunch of apps, now I don't, the phone is faster, and has less clutter.

Can you explain the "unused ram is wasted ram"?

You are saying that maxing out the RAM capability of an android device will not affect speed or performance?

Thanks!
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nookcoloruser:
It's a constant misnomer thrown out whenever someone raises the android ram issue.

Essentially whilst it's partially true having lots of ram not being used is wasteful - having your memory constantly full or used up will result in degraded performance and many more app refreshes and less apps stored in memory. Just look at the Galaxy S6/Edge for an example.

There has to be a point where you have enough ram to run all your core applications and enough extra 'free ram' to enable other apps to be loaded and shuffled without causing excessive and aggressive refreshes.

So this 'free ram is wasted ram' is a misnomer based on a partial truth but ignoring important factors that mandate in order to maintain optimum performance you do need free ram to allow new apps and existing apps wiggle room to work / operate.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] papamalo:
That is kind of what I thought. I figured a little balance was good. Basically of the 3GB RAM I try within reason to keep 1 GB free.

it made a noticeable difference in speed, and load times in general.

I wish there were clear guidelines by number, on app load, RAM limitations, and optimal settings to use the most stuff at the quickest speed.

Anyway, thank all for responding. I learn more every day.

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tinkerer_:
Delete Facebook and Twitter apps? I don't see those anywhere on my XT1575.

Always shun the app and use browser instead if you can. The apps hog resources even when they appear "closed", surreptitiously slurp your private data*, and clog your network bandwidth (using your limited data on cell connection) sending your data to the mothership and serving obnoxious ads - all of which also uses more power too.

There is no such thing as a free app.

* Also look at the recent news about a slew of "free" apps hiding Chinese malware that REALLY utilizes your private data and bandwidth.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aybarrap1:
The idea behind effective usage of RAM is that apps' core functions are loaded and/or remain in RAM when not running an app. This is supposed to prevent the processor from working as much. Some open RAM is still good to have for those times in which an app or what not is not already loaded. Otherwise the system has to dump some of the RAM usage to make room so to speak. I am over simplifying the process but the take away understanding is the same. You want the system to utilize the RAM effectively by having the most used apps preloaded and stored even when not in use. You also want some free RAM for when it is necessary. Some apps you do have to watch out for though as they consistently take up large chunks of RAM (Facebook was one of those in past experiences).

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sicily1918:
Like the title says, it takes about 5 - 10 minutes to perform a wipe from Recovery, where in Lollipop and before, it was a few seconds. A couple of websites have corroborated this.

Does anyone know what's changed in 6.0 that a cache wipe takes so long? I'm on an unrooted N5 and performed a clean factory flash (and re-locked the bootloader).

Did we go from

mkfs -t ext4 /dev/[device]

to

rm -rf /cache/*

or something? I mean, even formatting a heavily encrypted partition shouldn't take that long (especially one as small as /cache).

Anyone?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beekay201:
Likely it was the other way around: in 5.x.x, a simple rm -rf was used; in 6.x, mkfs.ext4 is used.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sicily1918:
Hmmm... typically an rm is far slower than mkfs, especially on such a small filesystem with lots of files.

Interestingly enough, I tried it on the wife's N5. The first time took about 20 - 30 seconds, but after everything installed, it took more like 8 minutes, much like on my N5, so it must be a Marshmallow thing.
