[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enettrek:
1... Yes I was referring to http://xdaforums.com/note...shing-t3048163 method not working on my brand new note 4..

2.. Avoid rooting is awesome as this is the first phone I don't feel like I have to in order to use 2 way call recording apps. So your native unlock link isn't for me at this point. If I wanted to root I'd do a unbloat pre-root stock rom.

3. no, as I have unlimited data on my phone already, plus a netgear zing hotspot with unlimited data for under $46 a month, why would I pay extra to tether from my phone that should be able to do it on it's own? I mean I have been tethering phone's data plans since my SERO 500 plan with the Samsung A620.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thunderteaser:
Please, have a look at my last_kmsg.

I'm on YOG4PAS2QL, stock kernel, rooted, xposed as the only mod. This problem also occurred on the first Lollipop 5.1 release.

Basically, sometimes, when my device is in deep sleep and I try waking it up by double tapping, nothing happens. After pressing the power button for a while I can see the device soft rebooting (Starting Android with the spinning circle, doesn't ask for PIN). I tried disabling xposed but eventually I came up with another soft reboot in the same fashion. Can you help me out?

If you need more info, feel free to ask.

Thank you so much in advance!

Bought an unlocked verizon s6 edge and having network problems. Currently have the phone on Cricket but it seems that I can't keep a strong signal at home. Everywhere else is good. Any suggestions?

Just bought a brand new N6 and its not downloading any ota's, still on 5.0. The build is LNX07M which is a developer build and apparently will not download any ota's. Has anyone heard of this? Did a quick Google search and there is hardly anything about this build.

I have no access to a computer, am I stuck on this build and 5.0?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
no access at all?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csdaytona:
Not at the moment. What will I need to do?

This is my first nexus device and the last phone I rooted/flashed was the G1 way back in the day.

I was excited to get my phone today so this kind of sucks....
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
ohh.. that sucks. i remember my g1 :)

i have a way that will probably work out fine, but this way is highly looked down upon on xda. would you be willing to try? btw, im one of those that would look down on this way, unless in certain situations..
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csdaytona:
OK what is it and why is it frowned upon?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
because its not "proper", and normally isnt used properly. but ill explaine to you the proper way. you can try an app called kingsroot. you csnt get it at the play store, youll have to search google for it. after you install it, then run it, youll have root. but, youre not done yet. you will want to download the latest twrp recovery for the nexus 6 with your phone and keep it there. then you will unstall flashify from the play store. you will now use flashify to flash the twrp recovery. now, last thing, to get your bootloader unlocked. you will install any bootloader unlock apps, like boot unlocker or similar(that might delete everything from your phone), then youre done. ive never tried this on a nexus, but have on other devices, just so you know.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csdaytona:
That seems like a lot of work. If I can get to a computer tomorrow, what can I do then?

Btw, thanks for helping me out.

If you can get to a computer, download this: https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/shamu-mra58k-factory-5b07088c.tgz

It's the Marshmallow (6.0) factory image for the Nexus 6. Run the batch file inside and it'll flash your phone. Note that this WILL wipe it.

Here's the actual Google-supplied information on it: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images?hl=en
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csdaytona:
First time doing this, but it's OK to jump straight to 6.0?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] |Jason8|:
It'll be fine. It's the complete system image, so it doesn't matter what you're on currently. Note that you will have to install all sorts of extra crap to get the Android SDK installed and working and the proper drivers, but it's not that hard, just gigs of downloads when everything is all said and done.

Like I said, it WILL wipe your phone completely.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
if you can get to a computer..

you can unlock your bootloader with "fastboot oem unlock"

then fastboot flash twrp recovery

then flash a custom kernel wiyh the latest supersu in your new recovery.

and then boot up with root, an unlocked bootloader, and a custom recovery :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csdaytona:
Not worried about wiping the phone, I've literally only had it for a few hours and nothing is loaded on it.

Would be possible to just install an ota to get me on the right upgrade path? I'm just trying to do the quickest and easiest method possible.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] |Jason8|:
If it's not grabbing an OTA, not sure what else you can do, short of downloading all the OTAs and flashing via recovery. But no guarantee that'll work as you're on a development build... There probably isn't an OTA to go from your development build to a release build.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scryan:
Dude, come on... I know this is the Q&A section, and were supposed to be nicer here... But this lazyness is bull****.

You act like using a computer is impossible, then as soon as it takes some work.... You can get at one the next day?

Stop expecting to be spoon fed and at least try to learn something fist. There are a TON of write ups on how to do this. You spend how much money on a phone, and now you don't care to educate yourself on it?

Instead of expecting other to do all the work for you, read through the stickied index thread in the general section

http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/general/nexus-6-index-thread-t3229412

It has a newbie guide that literally holds your hand through the whole process. Post 2 has info on "how to flash factory images", use method 2 as method 1 in that thread will not work with the MM factory image.

Nice people have already spend a lot of time and effort documenting these things for you, as they are common questions. People like Simms and the other posters in this thread answer questions and offer support for free out of the kindness of their heart... Don't create extra work for them by ignoring all the effort already put out by other members, expecting it all to be regurgitated to you.

Fastboot, as described in the threads mentioned above, will completely overwrite the pertinent partitions, regardless of what was there... dev build or not. No need to flash and apply countless incremental updates. Google provides not only full system images, but the information to use them on their web page...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csdaytona:
Gotcha. I'll try to flash 6.0 tomorrow. Wish me luck.

Thanks for the help!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] |Jason8|:
I linked him to that already. No need to be a **** about it. He was looking for an easy way to do it now, when he doesn't have a computer. **** got crazy, so he asked if it would be easier with a computer, which the answer is yes.

Wouldn't you be excited as **** if you had a new phone? Wouldn't you want to get it up and running as quickly as possible? Well... now he's gotta wait until he has a computer. Obviously installing an OTA and doing the incremental updates would be easier, which is what he was looking for. Since that's not an option, we laid out other ways to go about doing it. So he's getting to a computer tomorrow.

---------- Post added at 09:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:50 PM ----------

No problem man. I wish you luck!

If you do plan on modding it/rooting it/romming it in the future, DEFINITELY unlock your bootloader before you set up the phone or that'll wipe it, too.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scryan:
You act like I was born with a nexus 6... It was a new phone to me too. I was so excited I read as much as I could on it, thanking the people who were so gracious to spend their personal time writing guides so I could understand the process well enough to be comfortable with my phone and help others here.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
i have absolutely no computer nor laptop access, so i completely understand(understood) his side as well.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] |Jason8|:
He googled his build number and didn't get many hits on it. So he's asking if there's a way to get it up and running tonight without a computer. Seems valid to me. You jump into the thread offering no help at all and start talking **** about the guy. That's the exact opposite of what you're saying you strive to do. I don't get it.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scryan:
At that point its a legitamate question. This is a very different situation that is not well covered here, and requires a unique solution not many would come up with.

But "I absolutely have no computer nor laptop access" is pretty different then "I can access one TOMORROW. Sheesh, having something 1 day away is pretty far from it not being a possibility.

And I think you would agree it would be a significantly better idea to wait that day then to proceed with the method you gave (not that it was bad of you to give it... but you tried to differentiate and he held out to avoid being told to do it the hard way)

We are told time and time again that their are no bad questions. Truth is there are more bad questions then good ones.

Him asking about a build that provides few google hits is very legitimate.

Him asking about doing it without a computer because he doesn't have one is legitimate.

It only becomes an issue when he doesn't get the answer he wants, and all of a sudden he does have computer access.

And given that he is going to proceed in a computer... It becomes nothing more then "How do I update my phone?", which is VERY well documented.

I not only gave him the link to the information he needed, AND even corrected the information pointing out that the flashall script fails and that he would need to use the second method listed in the instructions I linked him to (since I know he will likely have limited time to fail and figure out whats wrong)

"That's the exact opposite of what you're saying you strive to do. I don't get it."

Then let me explain.

Would you skip your homework, ignore your textbook, then show up to class asking your teacher to explain it again? We are here to help... but how or why should I care more about it then he does? With no attempt made to learn, how much should I care to teach him?

Its a pretty big **** you to all those who have spend countless hours documenting this stuff to help new people to ignore their work and tell someone to do it again.
[Moto Maxx Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LuanGuima14:
There is a problem with the system kernel or something that causes such a significant loss in performance of the Droid Turbo games ? The drop frames when running games like Asphalt 8, GTA SA , Modern Combat 5 comes to pass of 10 frames with pretty annoying lags that are not in stock ROM .

I wish I could use some custom on a daily basis but this problem with the GPU requires me to stay in outdated and vulnerable ROM Stock 5.0.2 :confused: :crying:

These prints of AnTuTu show a bit of difference seems small but is quite noticeable in games:

[IMG="Rom Stock 5.0.2 Antutu"]https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B08M6sHcS4M_UmxycDBaU0VEOWM/view?usp=sharing[/IMG]

[Moto Maxx Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IonAphis:
Not only for the Droid Turbo. Moto Maxx has the same issues. I've been saying this for a while now, but no one seems to listen. ("In my phone, games run great with this rom or that rom") but I've tried flashing and reinstalling, going back and forth from ROMs, different kernels, but in all ROMs it seems like the Maxx lags like heck... Dont get me wrong, these developers are doing a heck of a job with this, but I remember the Moto X 2014 switching from stock to CM12.1 was incredibly smooth, didnt lose any performance and it was a "never going back" situation. Is the Turbo / Moto Maxx that different under the hood from the other Motorola phones?
[Moto Maxx Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andresgvc:
Ihad the same experience with MotoMaxx
[Moto Maxx Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbalfury:
I agree with you guys, the CM roms are indeed fast but the GPU stutters slightly when scrolling on my XT1225.

Perfect example, download the Google Keep app in the play store and put a bunch of notes in there and scroll through them.

It is clearly much smoother on stock rom which I'm on now, than it is on CM12.1.

However I just tried out 11/11 CM12.1 nightly and it looks to be a bit more smoother than it was.

I'm thinking that it might have something to do with the fact that the source code for the Moto Maxx 5.1 kernel was just released at the tail end of October and they just started incorporating it into the CM12 nightlies shortly after that.

Hopefully over the next month or so they will be able to better optimize the kernel with the rom itself to eliminate the stutter.

Other than that the devs for this phone are doing an awesome job as this is the only issue I found with CM12.1.

As a side note, I wonder if there are updated Adreno 420 drivers for our phone, maybe that would help?
[Moto Maxx Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbalfury:
OK I think in found a solution to the problem.

For some reason some devices with CM12.1 don't play nice with the default CPU governor called interactive.

So I changed the governor to conservative using the Kernel Adiutor app in the play store and bingo!

Now the ROM is buttery smooth.

Try out the latest Resurrection Remix as it works best with that ROM.

However it does work with the latest CM12.1 nightly too.

Hope this helps as it's like night and day for me.
[Moto Maxx Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxspookyxx:
I think change gorvenor to conservative dont solve the problem.

To me dont make any difference, the better Gorvernor works well with my Moto maxx are Interactive_pro.

To getter better perfomance of my phone, i need change Thermal Frequency Throttle to 80º C, most custom roms use Intellithermal method, and they are very sensivity to temperature.

If you choose 80º C, they will reach in max 70º to begin the throttle the processor.

Stock Custom Roms are 60ºC in Thermal Frequency Throttle, i change to 80ºC and my phone are very fast now.
[Moto Maxx Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrkhigh:
Apparently it makes a difference if your screen is on or off as well. Stock cm12.1 48,614 with the screen off it was 43,000.

I have noted my battery life is better on cm12.1. At 6pm I was at 82% normally I would be nearing 60% at that time of day.

Now granted I have less apps currently installed. I'm still impressed. This makes sense though, obviously if I'm getting lesser scores CPU usage should be down making the battery life better.

For what it is worth the note 3 and the turbo are very similar devices and the turbo blows the note 3 out of the water on this test.
[Moto Maxx Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shooting Star Max:
I had some UI stuttering, but it was almost completely gone when I used BayButcher's kernel and its custom settings with Kernel Adiutor (isn't really meant to be "Auditor"?).
[Moto Maxx Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChazzMatt:
No, it's a Latin word. Means "helper" or "assistant".

Dev chose the word Adiutor on purpose as it describes the app.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ruriko:
Can anyone give me a list of bloatware that I can remove/disable? please note I will not root my tablet
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GidiK:
Anything that you can remove without root, is safe to remove. It's up to you to decide whether you need or want an app. What extra stuff is preloaded depends on your region.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GirN3:
You can not remove any bloadware without rooting your device. I mostly remove high data usage apps like Samsung link, google MUSIC, book.. . And other google apps which im not use them and Microsoft Excel,word etc. You can check and remove apps with this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.easyapps.txtoolbox
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheKorbenDallas:
Not exactly true. For example, it is possible to disable "Galaxy Apps" without root by simply going to application manager and clicking "Disable" button. However, doing so will cause anything installed through "Galaxy Apps" marketplace to fail to update. Like Microsoft Office apps, for one example. The app itself will say "New version available", but clicking on "Get It" button will just silently fail.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GidiK:
I was talking about removing, not just disabling. The bloatware, like e.g. the pizza and hotel apps included in the German firmware, can be removed like normal apps via the app drawer. I would indeed think that disabling system apps like "Galaxy Apps" is riskier.

The situation with the pre-installed Office apps is a bit weird: you can't update them via the Google Play, even though Google Play indicates that an update is available. Somehow Google thinks that these apps are incompatible with our device and refuses to install or update them. Even though they are pre-installed and our device clearly is compatible. This happens even if you haven't disabled "Galaxy Apps". But you do indeed need "Galaxy Apps" if you do want to update them, since that store does see our device as compatible. Though in my experience, updates arrive in "Galaxy Apps" much later.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ruriko:
What if I disable Galaxy Apps and remove Office apps and reinstall it through Google Play will it update properly?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GidiK:
No. Google Play has marked the Office applications as incompatible with our device, so I suspect you can't reinstall it from Google Play.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klear6:
Is there a link to a description of these apps/packages anywhere? I'd like to take a look at one before I disable my stuff... Or do I need to google them one by one? I downloaded a package info tool but as for descriptions, it just has a button that says "Google It" and it just shoves the query into my search app...which isn't exactly what I expected when downloading the app.

[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gasperoni:
Hello,

everytime i want to change the ringtone for calls or alarm or view my gallery in the normal gallery, which also appears after taking a picture with the camera app I get a pop up notification telling me:

Internet connection

By using this service, you agree to Xiaomi's Term of Service and Privacy Policy. Some features require an Internet connection to work normally

Exit Ok

I find that pop up extremely annoying and I don't understand why I have to sign a contract or agree to terms and policy that is larger than the Declaration of Independence. I don't want to agree to that. Why do I have to agree just for changing my ringtone? I could do that with my phone 15 years ago without Internet.

Is it possible to uninstall all Xiaomi Services and apps, like the Gallery or the Mi Account app?

Thanks
[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gasperoni:
No idea? Am I the only one who gets that pop up?
[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Esp_McLee:
You can disable a lot of those apps using, ironically, the included "cleaner" app. That's the one bugging you to clean up RAM, unused files and boost charging every five minutes. But other things like the Xiaomi app store cannot be removed. I just ended up flashing AOSP. Didn't like MIUI very much.

As for the reason why; probably because it's all connected - to each other, to xiaomi and to all that MiStuff. Cloud, sync, backups, apps, u name it, and at the core there is some service requiring you to sign the declaration of independence.
[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gasperoni:
So can I disable or avoid that agreement pop up?

What would happen, if i would remove all xiaomi apps via titanium backup?

Which aosp do you use?
[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Esp_McLee:
You can disable most of the apps and services, yes. I think I disabled every one I could, but still ended up having to accept one or two agreements. Disabling them seemed to have no negative effects at all.

Right now I'm using the sAOSP ROM. It's pretty good, but there's been some dropped calls, data disconnects and general feeling of instability that forced me to go back to my trusty HTC as my everyday device.
[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gasperoni:
...

So it is possible to disable that message? Is there a way to link another gallery app with the stock camera? I would like to have a different gallery app to appear on the left bottom while i am using the camera. because i would like to be able to watch the taken picture without getting that message that asks me to agree to that agreement...
