Thanks in advance...

sorry for bad english.. :cyclops:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupysoup:
I can't say for sure without seeing or playing with it myself, but how cheap are we talking, I mean it is a Nexus 5 lol, check it out, buy it and if flashing a new ROM or stock image doesn't fix it I'll buy it off of u for the same price, I'll use it for part's or fix it myself
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krokanic:
it is 90 USD.... i will check it tomorow, i didnt saw it yet... guy that sell it said that it is rooted and android 6.0 developer preview installed and maybe somthing goes wrong and he cant or he even didnt tried to repair it...

[XDA Assist] Kipring:
I did something stupid. I made an assumption that things were as I remember them... It's been years since installing multiple partitions with different OS on a machine and I've forgotten almost everything I know and times have changed.

I purchased a used K1 with honeycomb and had hoped to install ICS with google play services/store. Simply wanted a device to surf and play a few games.

Installed ICS, flashing it without problem and thinking I would simply install GPS afterwards... that didn't happen.

After some research found that khanning88 had made a ROM ready to go. Thinking the end result was within my grasp, low and behold the ROM is no longer available and I have searched relentlessly for almost a week now, torrent sites, Russian forums, anywhere to try and find the ROM. I'm thinking it may no longer be out there and I am back to square one.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1564002

I'm not sure where to proceed, if someone would know of a repository where this file might be found or should I start learning how to integrate GPS into my own ROM similar to what Khanning88 had already accomplished.

Thank you,

Title says it all. This is a fresh, "stock" install of Cataclysm 6.0r1 on an XT1103 with no tweaks or kernel replacements or anything else. Skype works great but the receive audio stutters any time Skype is not running as the foreground app (transmit audio remains unaffected). Locking the phone makes no difference. Speaker vs Bluetooth makes no difference. Any ideas?

The problem is still here, but is related to gapps on Marshmallow.

Got an update this morning ,151mb COJ5 ,any one else get it, one thing i noticed so far is the lte icon doesnt spin anymore just a static image that says lte, havent had time to play with it yet.

[Note Edge General] lex.usa:
Got update too (89mb). Dont have any idea about changes. Only seems Battery options have some changes... someone explain about
[Note Edge General] george9:
I only noticed the new LTE icon. BUT my battery life improved dramatically! Also it fixed a couple of the 5.1 bugs like lingering S Pen icon and Headphone icon but my edge notifications are still working.
[Note Edge General] RayTrue04:
Did it fix fingerprint lock?
[Note Edge General] george9:
It did not :( I noticed there is a tiny bit of lag when using the pattern unlock now too. It takes a half a second for the phone to unlock after entering the pattern. Overall though my phone is running smoother with near zero lag except when unlocking.
[Note Edge General] RayTrue04:
That sucks. Thanks! It's annoying I had to turn it off because it would randomly freeze and kick me back to the lockscreen after a few seconds of being frozen. Took me a while to figure out it was the fingerprint lock causing it. Note 4 also had the problem but according to them it was fixed on their last ota. My phone has been a nuisance since lollipop smh
[Note Edge General] imranzahid:
facebook not working

After this update I have the same error that lte icon is not revolving, I believe it isn't connecting to the Spark network.

The other big problem is that my facebook app (official) was crashing, so I uninstalled it and when I try to install via Google Play it doesn't install giving me the -500 error.

I looked in the logcat and it has to do with the some permissions. This was an android bug in 5.0.1 but google fixed it, but with this OTA it has crept up again.
[Note Edge General] ALooneyGuy:
Would it be possible for someone to upload a flashable zip?
[Note Edge General] RayTrue04:
Update does fix the fingerprint bug. Working flawlessly since putting it back. Overall phone feels snappier like the day I first bought it. Also like that they got rid of the dreaded spinning spark icon plus signal on band 41 no longer displays just one bar and instead is showing 4-6 bars while inside home! Battery life also took some improvements from this ota.
[Note Edge General] george9:
Really? Mine is still having issues. I factory reset to fix the edge notifications too and they worked for a few hours then randomly stopped. Do yours work?
[Note Edge General] RayTrue04:
Yeah I just came back to post it's back. Almost went a day without it. Back to pattern lock I go smh. And yes my edge notifications are working. I never had that problem with any updates.

It'll just be the same pattern after note 5 gets marshmallow. Their phones always work great with the original os it comes pre installed with till they update and it's a mess. Been like that since my S1. They lucky I'm a committed Samsung head although I'm tempted to test the Nexus 6p..
[Note Edge General] ALooneyGuy:
Anyone know anything about regaining root with this?
[Note Edge General] RayTrue04:
My Spark connection took a hit. I'm no longer doing 70+ mbps. When I run a speedtest the build up starts off slow and then picks up. B4 update it would fly straight to like 50 and keep increasing. Now I start of like at 10 and by the end reach around 30-40 mbps. I want a new update with new radios ?
[Note Edge General] jreuschl:
Sprint has removed the Wal-Mart Spark icon in recent updates on other phones, in fact, they seem to be discontinuing the mention of Spark in general.

---------- Post added at 12:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:47 PM ----------

I hope others do not have this issue. Root Metrics is using the Note Edge to test the Sprint network and some results have been not favorable (others have been). Last thing they need is an update to make it worse!
[Note Edge General] RayTrue04:
I don't care about the little spark star. I'm talking about my speeds in general. Seems the radios in this update are not as great.. I like that the retarded star is gone and actually the way lte is being measured is better on band 41 then when we had the old icon. Before it would just sit at 1 bar but now I'm almost maxed out. Ps Spark is still a thing they just removed the icon because a lot of us hated it.

Hello XDA :x

I know the thread title is very vague but i had no clue what to put there, sorry about that :x

I'm terrible at talking, but I hope you guys understand what I'm saying /:

A week ago, I downloaded the latest snapshot of CM12.1, with intentions of using it instead of stock htc rom.

(The CM download is not very relevant to my problem but I thought I should give a background to how I arrived to my current situation)

So I flashed latest TWRP,

***<foolishly forgot to make a nandroid backup>***

and tried flashing CM12.1 snapshot and it didnt work. I tried other CM variants, and MaximusHD but nothing worked. So I just sat there with no OS.

Luckily (not really), I had a nandroid backup from a month or two ago because I used to frequently flash ROMs. The

nandroid backup was 4.16.401.10

, and

my current OS

(before trying to install - and according to my bootloader)

is 4.16.401.13

I had no choice but to restore the previous version, which is Lollipop 5.0.1 without stagefright update.

Things became confusing... my OS version according to Software Information is 4.16.401.10, and the OS on bootloader still was .13

I've attempted all of the following:

1) OTA through phone itself: It downloads the update, then says the files are corrupt (no matter how many times I try)

2) This one is too obvious, but i tried it anyway -> the official RUU of .10 didnt work

3) Flashing firmware.zip from the .13 update using RUU feature in fastboot

Nothing has worked. I'm still .13 on bootloader, and .10 while the phone is on. And the software status is modified.

Please help me get my actual OS back to .13, things are getting really frustrating :( :(

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
Stop worrying so much about that stagefright patch. They did put out a patch but didn't solve it exactly with that patch.

Just stay on .10 and wait a bit longer for newer updates. You are not missing much to nothing at all !
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theoryx46:
Im not worried about the patch, its just that I might be selling my phone soon and if I do, the guy isnt exactly familiar with ROMs and the bootloader; and I dont wanna be a jerk haha.

Also, aren't updates incremental? Like, step-by-step as in you go from .10 to .13, you cant jump over an update?

Also,thanks for replying :)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
Well you can get a stock .13 backup here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3086860

Restore that one and flash back the stock recovery also. Then it's stock as the backup has never been rooted before.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theoryx46:
wwwwwoah.

i just realized that I've been trying to do the OTA for .13 while on .10 recovery :x

god i hate being a noob.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SysAdmNj:
Just taking a poll. Me personally I kind of did at first but now not so much, do wish we had marshmallow already. Oneplus two's build quality might be superior.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tele_jas:
I'm selling my OP2 as soon as my Nexus 6P arrives (next week). The OP2 isn't a bad phone at all, but I REALLY miss not having front facing speakers... That has turned out to be a deal-killer for me.

Since 2012, I've had phones with front facing speakers and I thought I would try the OP2 and see if I could live without them, but it seems I can't :(
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J_Dutch:
I was planning to sell the OPT and buy a 6p but not one person in the world wants to pay more then €300 for it while I paid €450 for it 4 weeks ago. It's definitely not like the OPO, I could have sell it with profit last year. The OPT was a bad decision and it's the f***ing invite that made me buy it. I think my wife won't let me buy the 6p so I'm a little disappointed now. ;)
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shigi1231:
Technically, in terms of raw performance the Oneplus 2 trumps over the Nexus 6P any day. That full HD display helps a lot in the battery (at least in my experience with the OP2 and 6P). Only factor limiting such potentiality is the damn OXygen OS, which in my experience has yet to gain proper optimization with the hardware, but then custom roms with that are cm based are already quite buttery smooth in user experience. Oneplus 2 has superior camera, and with the latest software update, video recording has been fixed. Overall, in my opinion, some of the advantages of getting the NExus 6p if you are a character with little knowledge in android hacking are faster software updates, front facing speakers, gorgeous AMOLED display (but then again the QHD evidently takes a hit on the battery), larger developer community( I might be wrong, but then OP2 already has a significant amount of devs), and stock android experience. lol
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redh4t:
Both Nexus 5x and 6p are more expensive than OPT. So i definitely not regret buying OPT week after release! It was great phone for me since i got it, sure some bugs there and there but overall very satisfied with it. There are better smartphones, but in this price range - OPT is still one of the best.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kirahvi:
Since the 64gb version 6p is 270€ ($300) more expensive than the OPT I am not even thinking about it.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lifehijack:
I'm very happy with my Oneplus Two. In india, i can buy 2 Oneplus Two for the price of 1 Nexus 6p 64gb. So i definitely don't regret buying Oneplus Two.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benj!:
This. It's not really a fair comparison as the Oneplus 2 so much cheaper. I would probably buy a 6P if I could justify the additional cost, but for the money I think the Oneplus 2 is great

Do you regret [not waiting and getting the Nexus 6P or 5X]

Do you [regret not waiting] and getting the Nexus 6P or 5X
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shigi1231:
yes, it is still by default in 1080P 30FPS. Oneplus has yet to release another software update that would inculcate the 60FPS functionality in FHD recording. The camera can shoot with that frames.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] y7038862:
That's nice.

It's been confirmed?
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SysAdmNj:
Well let me add to this thread that I do regret it as my oneplus two home button went dead yesterday. Pretty disappointing.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MickyFoley:
No regrets so far. Google went crazy at prices in Europe. For the same space and specs they sell it for twice the price for an OnePlus 2 64GB. Yes, I blame Google for it, because the 6P is ugly as hell. Well, I don't care that much about design, but if I pay twice the price, I'd consider to buy a LG G4 rather than a Nexus 6P.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shigi1231:
To make everything simple, Oneplus 2 has potentials of surpassing even the latest flagships of today in terms of software experience. The specifications surpass or at par with the greatest today. Like i've said, only thing limiting the full potentials of this phone is Oxygen OS. If Oneplus would fix the bugs and stuttering of the Oxygen OS, this device would be even faster (technically) than a nexus 6P.

In terms of capturing images, it can go toe to toe even with the note 5, or G4 (which are the best in the smarthphone industry today.). GO check the reviews with the camera that has the Oxygens OS 2.1.1 if you want proof.

Display appreciation is subjective. An AMOLED panel would have high saturation as compared to the true to life colors of an IPS LCD display. QHD is just overkill, and it is a minuscule update from a FHD display. 5 - 6 inches will not give significant changes if upgrade to a QHD.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SoulSmasher:
I'm quite the opposite. Glad I've bought OP2 instead of waiting Nexus 6P.

[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrashTestDroid:
Glad to have both. The 6P is much nicer, hardware-wise, while the OP2 makes a good beater.

That said, I really hope the OP3 has a QHD AMOLED. A decent screen would take OnePlus to the next level.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SysAdmNj:
Why do you feel the 6P is nicer? I'm about to pull the trigger.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrashTestDroid:
Basically this:

Camera is important to me, you can read all about the differences but the 6P is decidedly superior.

Display: brighter, more contrast, accurate colors and of course it's bigger too. I expect some degree of minor burn-in after a year or two but in the meantime this QHD AMOLED is incredible, compared to the washed-out and dimmer FHD display of a OP2.

Fingerprint sensor on the 6P is quick and all the upcoming roms will support it, while OP2's FP sensor only works with OP's closed source rom until Carl Pei gets the ball rolling.

Front facing speakers. Wish OP2 had something even 20% as good.

128 fat gigabytes. Case closed.

In OP2's favor:

I wish Huawei outfitted the 6P with a Sandstone back or skin. Slippery aluminum of the 6P is nearly as bad as glass or glossy plastic

Acceptable bezel. The 6P's bezels are a bit big for my liking, though nowhere near Apple or HTC

dualSIM! Great because I travel a lot

notification slider

My overall preferences are 6P > OP2 > S6 if that helps.

Hello dear XDA-Community,

Until now, I kept with Audax Rom 1.2 (based on firmware OH3) with its delivered Audax kernel, but now I wanted to upgrade to OJ5.

Everything went fine with Audax Rom 2.0 (OJ5) - custom kernel from Arter was working as well. I still messed up something though.

I read that the OJ5 firmware/bootloader blocks the flash of any custom recovery. I was a bit too risky and updated my recovery to a newer PhilZ version anyways

after

I flashed the new bootloader and modem. Now my phone won't boot up anymore. Doesn't matter what I'm trying.

Audax Rom 2.0 (OJ5) with and without custom kernel doesn't boot up. It will only bring me to the stock Samsung bootlogo. But it keeps there.. for an endless amount of time.

I think that I messed up because I still wanted to update my recovery - even after I upgraded to the OJ5 bootloader + firmware + modem.

I wanted to go back to AOH3 now.. and I downloaded the AOH3 stock firmware. Unfortunately it fails to flash in Odin. It literally stops at "cm.bin" and shows "FAIL!".

Is there any way how I can fix my phone again?

I really really need your help, guys. :/

Greetings

Prim

Edit: That's fixed. I can boot now. I installed stock OJ5 firmware.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Primrose Jy:
Apparently there is no way to do a downgrade from AOJ5 to AOH3.

I downloaded the AOJ5 stock firmware and installed it. Everything works fine now.

But due to the fact that it's completely stock, my battery life is horrible (30% loss of battery over 6 hours screen being off.) :crying:

Is there any method to install a custom recovery and kernel after I updated to AOJ5?

A lot of people run AOJ5 with a custom recovery. But my phone is based on the newest bootloader, which now doesn't allow me to install any custom recovery. I really hope there is some workaround for this. I am really not happy with stock AOJ5, as it was supposed to fix the battery drain, but it drains even more than AOH3 :/

Greetings

What are the best Google Cardboard sets in terms of features versus value you have found for the Nexus 6p?

Ideally, the phone would fit well and the set-up would include magnets, NFC, and a head strap. I am particularly interested in something that allows one to wear glasses at the same time as the set-up.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsny:
Following. I too am interested, and I wear glasses. Based on what I've read, the better units come with optical options for near and far sighted people. That would in theory negate the need for glasses? I have personally not used any of the VR units and have only recently become intrigued by them once I bought the 6P.

Hopefully someone will offer up some good options based on experience. While on the topic, what's the difference between Optimus Prime vs. using our phones? Or does the Optimus Prime use a phone? Have it's own screen? Do you have to buy "game/experience specific" titles? Or are there apps? Again, I'm new to the game.
