[General Questions and Answers] Tiemichael:
There is a lot of threads in various forums about Google Playstore not working, or more specifically 'hanging at download'.

The solutions given are mostly clearing cache and data for 'Google Play Store' and 'Google Services Framework'.

If you are using a custom ROM, or a ROM provided without Google-Apps this solution might help you:

In my case (using a custom FIUI-ROM on a Huawei G525) these standard solutions did not work.

The problem was caused by a missing 'DownloadProvider.apk' in /system/priv-app.

To solve this issue, copy 'DownloadProvider.apk' from a similar ROM to /system/priv-app (or /system/priv-app/DownloadProvider ....)

(Too bad, I cannot help with 'similar ROM', but look for the same Android- or CM-version, and copy the missing file to the respective folder)

Maybe this will help the one or other desperate ....

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gerg004:
To those who own the MXPE: Do you see this phone lasting 2ish years before needing an upgrade?

I'm getting ready to pull the trigger (via work), but I will pretty much absolutely be locked down for 2 years.

I understand NO phone is future-proof, just trying to get some insight from those who own this. I also understand most people here and who will post here probably like their phone. Again, just looking for some first hand experience.

This is not a compare "x" phone to this one.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Baldilocks:
I think it will for me. Hell, I had my Nexus 5 for two years and that's the longest I have ever had a phone. Usually a month or two did it for me. I'd buy a phone on a whim and go back to the Nexus 5 every time. This seems to be another phone like that for me.

As long as it gets 6.0 at some point, that will be just fine by me. I kept the Nexus 5 on 4.4.2 until just a few months ago.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darnell_Chat_TN:
No reason to feel it won't last 2 years. The standard now is 2 years of updates. And I feel the construction of the device will last.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebobmannh:
I think shelf life has much more to do with the user than the phone. If you don't want something new and shiny, and you don't break your phone, there's no reason it won't "last." But we all get the itch....
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orion116:
I had an Samsung Galaxy s3 for 2yrs. I know people that have had the S3 since it came out 3yrs ago. If the s3 can last 3yrs this phone can last 2yrs.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DroidsOnRoids:
Personally, no I don't. Unless a stock or aosp rom enhances battery life twice what it is now. I came from the LG g3 that had the same size battery and I feel it lasted A LOT longer. I will be selling mine at the turn of the year for a Nexus 6p once all the hype has calmed down and I may be able to snatch a used one fairly cheap.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Baldilocks:
Beats the heck out of my Nexus 5 in the battery department. so I'll be happy for a long while.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaseman:
How will the battery hold a charge 18 months from now? Nobody knows at this point. Doesn't matter if Marshmallow helps with battery life on a day-to-day basis. As long as the movable parts hold up...power switch, volume rocker, gyroscope, etc. then the phone should last more than two years. But, will we choose to replace the battery if it starts to go south? Tear down is available but not as easy as one would like in order to swap batteries.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebobmannh:
Yeah, the N5 set the bar so low for me in the battery dept that anything is a huge improvement :)
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matthelm:
I'm looking at replacing my Note 3, but only because I won't be getting any new updates. If there would be updates, I figure I'd keep it at least 1, if not 2 more years.

With an unlocked bootloader, you can get updates, as long as someone keeps working on them, and that's why I'm looking so closely at the MXPE. (My old ASUS TF201 has lollipop, but no updates from ASUS for 2+ years!)
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisund123:
I got 2 years out of my Moto G 2013 without too much bother... If the X-Style gets similar android support, this will last 2 years easy for me. Maybe more.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lermajm9:
I came from 2 years on an HTC One M7. Loving the Pure so far - the fast charge makes a huge difference. I can easily see it lasting me 2-3 years as long as the dev community supports it with the latest roms.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sunNsnow:
The build is about the same as the S3 (had it for two years) and G3.

Both phones lasted. I think this phone will last, so long as you're not crazy clumsy or forgetful.

This is the first no carrier phone I bought because I have VZ and need a decent camera. Lasting with me depends on whether there is another phone next year with features that outdoes this one.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kirbyserge:
EDIT: I am also experiencing Connection Problem or Invalid MMI Code

and cannot top up my phone account.

I have a Chinese version of Galaxy note 4 as I live in Beijing.

Model number: SM-N9108V

Android version 4.4.4

Processor: Snapdragon

I recently rooted my phone to get access to Gapps and the play store. After the root I noticed the phone is very slow when connecting over a data network.

The SIM card I am using with China Unicom is set for 4G.

Under Settings> more networks> Mobile networks > There is the option for network mode but it is grayed out and is selected as 2G only. I can not select it or change it. Has anyone had any problems with this or any solutions? Thanks in advance.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Metalneck:
My sister bought an S4 off of eBay that was set for Boost Mobile and has had issues with it since she got it. She tells me that when she boots it up that a bunch of error messages pop up but once she closes them she can use the phone for calls and text as well as the internet but only on WiFi. She gets no mobile data and no GPS but does have a SIM card in it, however Boost is not able to activate the card.

She tells me that the phone is a former Sprint phone, and has contacted Boost about her issues but there has been no resolution. They have tried sending firmware to her phone but it has not helped. I do not have physical access to the phone as she is in Florida and I am in North Carolina. I have flashed my AT&T S4 before with no issues and want to try to help her. She however knows nothing about flashing phones but is willing to try it.

What I am trying to find out for her is what she could do to get her phone working the way it should. Would she have to flash it back to a Sprint phone and then to Boost again? What software and firmware would she need to do this? Would she lose her phone number or be able to keep it? I know nothing about doing this but can figure things out pretty well and can follow directions to do the job, and would also have to walk her through doing this herself. This is her only phone and she can't afford to get a different one right now so having this one working is important for her.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] jsnzns:
If the phone was originally on Sprint and someone flashed it to Boost Mobile, I can see why she is having problems. I would advise that the phone be returned and obtain other one that hasn't been modified. Boost Mobile will RESKU the Sprint Galaxy S4, S4 Triband and S4 Mini that haven't been modified at no charge and everything will work.

The full list of eligible Sprint devices are listed on the link below.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] gdwilliams11:
With the Note 4, you could use Smart Select and select text on the screen. It gave you the option to extract that text to use some where else. If it was an address, it gave you the option to get directions to that address. If it was a number, gave you the option to call it. Now you can only save it to the gallery, scrapbook or share it as a picture. :(

This is driving me bananas. Anyone come up work a remedy? I really miss this from the note 4 as this was my primary s pen usage.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] matt.b.powell:
You can get an app from the galaxy app store called optical reader, and then you can use it in the same way. You can either take a picture and extract the text or you can import a picture you have already taken or screen shot. It's the same as the one from the note 4 just separated into its own app.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] gdwilliams11:
Thanks for the reply Matt. I'm familiar with the optical reader app but it's not the same. 1, it requires you to do an extra step (go to the optical reader app) and 2, when you extract text from the app it doesn't immediately recognize different types of text ( addresses vs email addresses etc. ) and respond accordingly. Again, it does work if I'm simply looking to extract text from the photo but the brilliance of its usage on the Note 4 was in its functionality and efficiency.

Thanks, again, for responding though.

Or use Google On Tap. It works perfectly, even from camera.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] OnnoJ:
Actually the same feature of Note 4 (and even Note 2) still works! You just should not use smart select from aircommand, but just push button on s-pen and select de text. Just had to allow permissions in smart select app for storage and contacts...

This on TMO stock Dec update.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] gambit3rd:
Using that method you can just share or copy the text (or use Dictionary), you can't send the text right to maps or phone call. That what happens for me on stock dec update (TMO).
[Nexus 6P General] andy_d0:
Still planning on switching to the new nexus? I pre ordered thinking it would be some time before AT&T pushed out the update but they surprised everyone by releasing over the weekend. The phone feels new again and makes me wonder if I need to really upgrade before my two year contract is up

I like the idea of getting updates quicker and being on Marshmallow but now it's a bit harder decision to spend the 600

The Note 4 cost me around 100 so it's not so bad if I did buy a new phone but also first time buying off contract

[Nexus 6P General] rajendra82:
5.1.1, or not, you can't wipe the taint of Touchwiz off. It takes talent like Samsung code writers to make Lollipop look exactly the same as Froyo.
[Nexus 6P General] Exel:
Hey, hey, hey.. I liked Froyo. :silly:
[Nexus 6P General] carelockh:
I still plan on upgrading to the Nexus 6p. I miss root and being locked down due to certain carriers *cough AT&T*. I did actually think the same thing when I updated to 5.1.1, much snappier, recent apps is faster etc. Almost thought about cancelling my preorder for the 6p.

Plus I would like to experience pure stock android this time around. I've always been reluctant to move away from TouchWiz, but I've been using nova launcher and I think I'll manage the transition.
[Nexus 6P General] :
5.1.1 on the Note 4 has been the best update samsung has ever pushed on it's devices. The device does feel new and responsive with no Touchwiz lags(finally, took only a year). I'm still going for the nexus as I like development and gadgets but you could stay with the note4 for at least another year with no issues.
[Nexus 6P General] Pilz:
Well when you are getting 6.0 on you're Note 4 we will have 6.X.X which will be better in some way. Samsung will never have the most current software and it will still look ugly the weird teals, greens, and other colors kill it for me
[Nexus 6P General] jayesh:
I made my peace with my nexus 4. The camera is still one of the best around, the battery life is really good once i formatted after 5.11 and it runs everything and does everything i need it to do. Last couple of days, instead of bouncing between my other handsets, i have just been running the note 4... and not finding it a hassle at all.

---------- Post added at 11:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:38 AM ----------

Pretty much this. I have stopped caring about the update scenario, as long as its bugfixed and works well out of the box. How much time can one actually spend, on worrying about this stuff on a monthly basis? As long as the update comes well made, i am finally making my peace with it.
[Nexus 6P General] supertoast92:
I'm still waiting for 5.1.1 on my VZ Note 4, and have been eyeing up the 6P... I think I'm in the same boat. Hearing that 5.1.1 fixes some performance issues is good news. I really would like stock Android though. Now I'm waiting on reviews to pop up (and the 64GB editions to come back in stock) to make a decision.

But if 5.1.1 fixes lag for the most part, I might just keep my Note 4 and see what the Snapdragon 820 brings next year. $600 would be 3x more than I've ever paid for a new phone.
[Nexus 6P General] hello00:

I'll fart if i have to, you bastard! Grumpy midgets. Sorry, little people...

wtf. Give the guy a break.
[Nexus 6P General] z06mike:
I ordered the 6p because Lollipop absolutely murdered my phone. My Gear VR is basically useless now and the phone is just terrible in general. I've been patiently waiting on VZW to send out the update, but to no avail. I too am sick of having to wait for Verizon to load all their crappy bloatware on the phone before updating it. This is how all phones should be sold from now on!! Directly from the manufacturer with no carrier meddling so that updates can be pushed straight from them.
[Nexus 6P General] mentalcase87:
Maybe I will put my foot in my mouth later but my Note 4 is my last samsung phone. I personally feel that they have just been pushing minor upgrades out year after year and the period we had to wait to get the first lollipop update was far too long and I had to go back to Kit Kat anyways. Months have gone by again and we still have yet to see 5.1.1, I know it's not fully the fault of samsung but for me all together the N4 was a locked down mess that I was never happy with due to all the bugs. I was also a very big fan of samsung and loved my note 2, but from the note 2 to 3 wasn't that big of a jump and the 3 to 4 wasn't and the same to the 5, yes they changed and upgraded some stuff but it didn't feel like a big deal. I couldn't wait for the 4 coming from the 2 but after just 2 months I was already done with it. All in all I am very excited about the 6p.
[Nexus 6P General] ywnmmsb:
I for some reason dislike the new design samsung has gone for. I am currently using a note 4 with a cracked screen. I bet I would break the note 5. I don't use cases or screen protectors.

I have had experience with nexus 5 for a month & battery was miserable.

I am optimistic about Nexus 6p battery & hence have preordered it.

PS the new 5.1.1 update on Note 4 is Fab !!! But using a cracked screen for 2 months has frustrated me
[Nexus 6P General] andy_d0:
I've experienced a few hiccups since the upgrade though it's not clear anymore if it's the Note 4 or some buggy app (like Swiftkey acting up)

With that said, there is a benefit to receiving frequent updates - issues are addressed far faster. I mean I'm not sure about the rest of you but I experienced so much frustration with my phone since the upgrade to Lollipop - we waited like 6 months before getting 5.1.1? That's a long time to deal with buggy behavior.
[Nexus 6P General] supertoast92:
I caved and ordered myself a 6P today, should be in in a few weeks. I actually canceled once because I'm not sure if it's worth changing phones (love the Note 4 hardware) but I am getting pretty tired of 5.0.1 and its performance issues.

I guess if I don't see the hype like the Internet does, I can always return it after trying it. The indecision is strong!
[Nexus 6P General] Olddog828:
I have not liked the Note 4 since i got it earlier this year. Just never felt / looked right to me and am happy that i went with the 6P. The touchwiz kills it for me and dont see myself going back to a Samsung in the near future.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Duelist_Shay:
Hello! I am new to the site so please be serious! Ok, so here's the problem: I rooted my Galaxy Nexus from Verizon to install CyanogenMod 11, Once I got the rom onto my phone I entered recovery using TWRP Recovery, then I tried to install the rom. After that it failed and I can't remember why, but I was being stupid and clicked the format sd card button and bricked my device. Now I'm trying to flash the rom again through ADB and Windows sends the .zip file to the phone, then while trying to install it gives the error of "E: Error executing updater binary in zip" and I cannot figure out a way to fix it. I need help as soon as possible and it would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

i think your best bet is 3 network. they have the best deal with skype and unlimited browsing at £5 a month. all you have to do is signup for a £15 deal and then include X-series silver in your price plan. you will get a free handset(nokia6120 recomd).then you can take out your sim/chip and pop it into any 3G handset.
