[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Yogesh2708:
Here I arrived at aliexpress and I found out this is like treasure in low price. The site covers awesome accessories for s4 in very cheap price also I am very impressed with low shipping charges....

Looking at price and feedback ratings I decided to buy this replacement battery which is affordable for my pocket. Though I need your experience guys coz this product is not reviewed anywhere.

This is the link. http://www.aliexpress.com/item/2x-2...9300b5f10984acd-1447267733719-03801-mmeyn2B2v

I may sound too dumb but I want to know is this compatible for Verizon s4 isch545? I never used original battery on this phone as I received duplicate one with device so I assume my phone heats up more than others who use original battery. Hence one thing I am worried is I don't want to own again a battery which heats my phone. I know this is not original either but I am expecting phone should heat as much it do with original.

If anybody used it please mention screen time it lasts.

I am Indian and also worried about entering card details at aliexpress. Should I?

Thanks a lot ...
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] GiRaFa-SAMA:
Buy original battery, if you buy an non original battery you are under the risk of this battery explode onto your legs.

I bought a micro SD to SD Card ribbon and in transaction stats was said I was protected by aliexpress if I wanted cancel or if the product nor arrive on my home.

But remember, buy only original batteries, if you buy a false battery, you are running on your own.

I use this battery:

Been working quite well for me. Getting over a day usage, when I'm not heavily using the phone.

Seriously. I had an aftermarket battery in my old MyTouch 4G Slide and it swelled up in my pocket and doubled in size and got REALLY hot. It nearly burned my leg.

[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vvveith:
I got the update and installed it. but still have no surround sound. Not through PC to living room big screen or Steam. Even though they say they added the support for it, I cannot get it to work in Surround Sound streaming no matter what I've tried. Anyone have a solution or suggestion where to look?
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unfnknblvbl:
Is your PC configured for surround sound otherwise?
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vvveith:
Of course, ...

Yes, I use Nvidia 3d vision for years and surround sound as always worked in room where computer is but now with windows 10-, says surround is working and as far as I can tell it is/!....
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unfnknblvbl:
are you able to stream/play other surround sound media? Like a movie through Plex or something, or is it isolated to game streaming?
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vvveith:
Looky here.

Yes, netflix, and all other premium streaming sites work as they are suppose to, just when streaming a Steam game through the device and I get no surround but on PC works perfectly . Ideas? Is it working for you?
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unfnknblvbl:
I haven't used game streaming in ages (since I first got the machine actually - I find it more hassle than it's worth), so I can't remember off the top of my head.

Interesting that you specify Steam though - does it work with other Gamestream enabled games?
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vvveith:
No

None
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vvveith:
Solved.

Finally figured out what was wrong with sound on shield not communicating with my Surround Amp. I had a USB cable plugged in to charge my controllers, and left it plugged in whether charging one or not. When I unplugged the cable from the back of the box, beautiful surround!!!!!!! Don't know why that would affect anything but in my case, it did.. Works great now!
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamloco724:
Im coming from the M8 I had a 6P I loved everything about it except the size I just couldnt get comfortable with it and I was even willing to deal with the AMOLED screen which I am not a big fan of.

So I have the 5X coming on Friday, I was just curious if anyone went from the M8 to the 5X and what there thoughts have been has it been an improvement in terms of performance? How is battery life compared to the M8? I know the camera is definitely better and the build quality is drastically different but whats your overall impressions?
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevothedog:
I had and HTC one M8 running GPE on VZW. Phone feels about the same I got a slim case. Battery life is not that good, hoping maybe I can find a better kernel.

[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gleggie:
I have the VZ M8 right now, i'm strongly considering switching to the 5X since it's going to take verizon forever to release the update that would allow me to run GPE MM. My main hesitation is battery life, the speakers, and only 32 GB storage
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HabueN:
have my M8 gpe right in front of me now. And screenwise the M8's colour is more cold, more blueish. 5X colors is more warm and yellowish. Performance in apps, app launch and so on, it is just about the same. Camera on the 5X is MUCH better (in my opinion), size is about the same, but i think the 5x feels better in the hand. The speakers in the 5X is crap, in M8 they are super. Battery on the 5x is much better and the overall feel of the phone beats the m8 if you ask me :)

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] it6uru:
I've noticed that looking up a location on wifi, and not hitting navigate until off of wifi increases the chances of navigation actually working on 5.0.1. Anyone else notice this? Navigating before disconnecting from wifi or not using wifi to look up a location usually results in it not working about 80% of the time.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] mefloump:
Wifi seems to block the phones ability to get a gps lock. I too have to ensure my wifi is off before attempting to use the navigation in maps.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] kerfex:
I have never experienced this propblem. Mine works fine weather wifi on or off.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] bobloblaw1:
Use gps only mode. Problem solved.

Also keeping the phone portrait or landscape with the power button facing up also seems to help if you insist on using high accuracy mode.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alljokingaside:
Hey- I've just got myself a "new" SHV-e210s and, to say the least, am a bit intimidated by the vast amount of info for the SGS3. I'm tempted to dive in and go flash-crazy, but seeing that the phone'll be my daily driver, I need something with serious stability (e.g. phone calls, texts, wifi, sound, gps, camera, etc)

1) Can I flash the I9305 roms *without* issue? I read another post about this and accd. to one poster, I'll just need to flash an appropriate kernel. Is this correct?

2) While I'm a fan of the PAC roms (which seem to be stble?) I'd like to try out Lollipop. It looks like Dokdo's the champ for my device. Ive been looking through the thread, but can't find any info regarding known issues. Are there any?

3) Any ROM recommendations if a stable Lollipop's out?

Thanks!

Hi All,

Please go through this,

https://blog.lookout.com/blog/2015/11/04/trojanized-adware/

Anybody has come up with any method to detect it or remove it if it is there?

It's a very serious security threat for our devices., especially for those who has a habit of installing Full/Cracked Apps from third party stores/websites.

Be aware friends..
[ZenFone 2 General] gontie:
From what i have seen on other sites, flashing the rom is the only solution.

A full Wipe of the phone is not solving the issue.

But i am interested to see if anyone has an idea how to check wheter a phonne is concerned.
[ZenFone 2 General] Christopher876:
No tool to check yet. However, why do you care about those people who are installing cracked apps? They are doing so illegally and bringing down the revenue for the app developer. They deserve this.

If this makes it onto the Google Play Store then yes it should be an issue, other than that no there should not be a concern to it.
[ZenFone 2 General] Rappala:
Wow, i hope you don't say that seriously.
[ZenFone 2 General] keeeeymann:
LOL that's a bit curel.

But using Android in iOS way loses tons of fun. There are way much more tools beyond Play store… Besides a security exploit itself is worth the consern.

[ZenFone 2 General] gontie:
No app are NOT released on the Playstore, Beta version of applications that google don't want to place on it.

So yes, this still is a concern specially when a full wipe is not solving the issue.

Hi Guys,

I hate to just appear to be begging for info on this board, but having answered a few questions in the BA forums in my time, I hope I'll be allowed to take the easy route just this once.

I've just upgraded my BlueAngel to a Universal and I'm looking to immediately install WM6 and start cooking roms.

I've been furiously reading everything I can find on the subject, but I've still got quite a few questions that seem to be unanswered.

- Pre-cooked Rom version

To get started, I'd just like to flash a known good WM6 ROM and find my way around.

- Laurentis 26?

- Ivan v6a?

- Helmi?

Laurentis seems to be the only one actively developed at the moment, but I'm unsure as to the stability/speed tradeoffs offered by any of the above roms.

- Kitchen

Which is the most up-to-date (AKU and scene bug fixes) kitchen? So far I've found about 5 of them.

- Known bugs

The BA had plenty of known bugs in WM5 (BT wakeup being chief amongst them). Which bugs are unsolved or ever-present in WM6 on universal? I hear dark murmurings of memory leaks in old versions of WM6, and plenty of chatter about videocalling not working fully. What's the status on all this?

Thanks in advance for your help.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] CWKJ:
Before I start, my Uni died in July just not too long after when Video Call is available on WM6 athough non Video Call WM6 exists since Dec 06 from Helmi.

So my Uni died with Helmi's WM5 Aku3.5 v1.3, one of the most stable around, not much problem using for more than half a year.

WM6 ROM I have not used, but from the active reading following from Dec 06 which was mean to prepare for upgrade, Laurantius WM6 V7 Video should be one you should try and also the improve Video Call from Indra.

As for Kitchen, I think you should use the one created by Laurentius too.

By the way, where did you get your Uni, used or brand new?

Thinking of getting 1 new, but I think it is difficult. I miss my Uni very much.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] thingonaspring:
Thanks for the advice CWKJ. Laurentius' ROM/Kitchen it is.

Sorry to hear about yor uni. If it helps, I was gutted when my trusty BA finally fell apart.

My Uni came used from ebay UK. £170 including 2gb SD card. I had to keep the costs down, so a used phone was my only real option.

If you have the time then you can snipe an auction and push the price down a little more, but not a great deal (I've seen them sell for £130 without a memcard).

At retail they seem to cost > £400.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] beast0898:
Hi Thingonaspring,

If you hang fire on flashing, Laurentius and I should be release a new WM6 Rom this week......... well worth waiting for.

If you take a look at the last page of the Video Call Poll thread, you'll see a list (incomplete at the moment) of what is in the Rom.

It is well worth waiting for, huge improvements in performace and stability over all previous Wm6builds for the Uni.

We should hopefully have a kitchen out with the new build by the end of the year.

Welcome to the Uni forum!

Cheers,

Beast
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] rhmartin:
hi thingonaspring,

so we meet again. was a BA user for a quite a while before i broke it.

upgraded to Uni (Vodaphone variant) since last month & currently playing around with it too!

tried most of the new WM6 ROMs (except Indra's XOJ) the major problems are frequent hangs or freeze either when receiving sms or calls & memory leak. Some say that those problems are specific to ROM-Uni variant combination (O2, Dopod, T-Mo, Voda, etc.), so I won't be specific to which one is better. speed is relatively similar in all these ROM's as pagepool is set either 6 or 8 Mb. you'll be missing the large memory resource of the BA!

anyway, other than those you mentioned, there's also a Indra's XOJ, PDAViet & KDSKamal WM6 ROMs. a new one is coming from Laurentius & Beast. i think video call will be solved soon. i'm currently back to Darkforce WM5 ROM for stability reasons, hate missing calls during work!

you may check this thread too.

---------

@CWKJ,

a brand new "unsold left over" UNI (O2 Exec variant) retails around S$ 895 in Jakarta, might be worth giving a try since it's close by Singapore.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] thingonaspring:
@rhmartin

Good to see you too. It's reassuring to see how much of the BA crowd has got behind the Uni. Have helmi_c or lt_cmdr_ivan been around lately?

@beast

Good news that a new build is on the way, I'll wait to use that one first then, may as well start from the best point possible.

Good luck with your+laurentius' efforts.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] rhmartin:
Helmi_c replaced his Uni & don't know what new device he owns, last post I saw from him is on PPCGeeks forum.

Not so many active UNI ROM developer around now, thanks to the time, effort & talent of Laurentius, Beast, Indra, KDSKamal, PDAViet & Darkforce. Through them we get ROM refresh/updates, unfortunately most of the core are based on midget_1990's old WM6 build. We hope someone can port a newer WM6 build from other devices (hopefully a newer VGA & 3G device).

Maybe you can help! :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] thingonaspring:
Well, I've put laurentius v7 on the thing and it's running nicely.

I've also nabbed a copy of the latest Athena ROM to see what's in there. Perhaps some of it can be useful.

On a sadder note, I noticed the news about tofclock today. :-(
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] beast0898:
Hi,

I'm an ex BA user too, how I miss that memory and overclocking ability (still have her fully functional though)

Leo's V7 is a good choice, hopefully we'll have the new one out soon enough.

Very sad news about TofClock, everyone was shocked, such a great guy, always happy to help, will be sadly missed by us all.

The Athena isn't much use, it's ATI based, but you could still port some stuff if you wanted.

Cheers,

Beast
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] CWKJ:
Thanks for your info.

You mean S$895 = SGD895 and new?

Miss the large resource, come to O2 XDA Flame, it has 2GB Flash and 128MB Ram.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] CWKJ:
The last Uni Rom Release by Helmi was Uni WM6 v1.1 and its kitchen (one of the earlier ones) and I think he broke the Uni and he is I think in the forum of another device (I cannot remember), make a search for him and you will know which device forum he frequent.

Ivan also declared he has release the last Uni WM6 ROM.

The active person here is Leo & Beast.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] rhmartin:
Yes my friend, SGD895 or IDR 5.500.000,- to be exact. Brand new O2 Exec package complete with box, adapter, cd, headset, & 1 year warranty from O2. That particular store in Roxy Mas (can't remember the name) had 3 units on stock early July (last month).

It was a bargain considering that latest branded 3G Smartphones are more or less priced the same. The stores are currently promoting HTC Athena & Nokia E90 (~IDR 14.000.000,-) & getting rid of older HTC PPC's. I didn't took note of the WM5 shipped ROM build since I'm "really green" on Uni that time.

I wish I could help more but I seldom visit Roxy & right now busy at work, hope you have friends or relatives in Jakarta that could scout for it!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] genocide:
hi there, still using my xda 2s( BA variant) for its ram( o gawd, the best machine ever created) but exec is way too cool to be not used, if only exec ram is also as big as ba....perfect machine :D

got mine 2nd hand too, miracle part, flawless condition.

i believe wm5 and 6 almost the same in every aspect, maybe some icon tweak but while waiting for beast 0898, why not try the variant of wm5 rom??

my favourite for now will be kdskamal rom.stable and way better then the original o2 rom.

@rhmartin

wow e90 in indo so expensive yah ^^; in singapore you can get it for just SGD 1328 (x6000) not to mention that price is the launching price.

jakarta mana btw ni man :D
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] thingonaspring:
@beast - Athena not much use

Good point about the ATI chip - what did midget port from originally?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] rhmartin:
That was the launching & booking price!

you mean Roxy Mas? It's like the elex stores Sim Lim or Fu Nan in Singapore, you ask for the cell phone/pda center in Jakarta & people would lead you there!

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coorsleftfield:
Doesn't do it every time but many times after a call hangs up the 6P is on 3G. I live right next to a tower so this shouldn't be happening. Never happens on my Nexus 5. Can anyone on Sprint try to duplicate this ?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daveoc64:
LTE networks (4G) don't generally support voice calls (only a handful of networks around the world have launched VoLTE), so the phone has to switch to a 3G or a 2G network to handle both incoming and outgoing calls.

If you have a good 4G signal, it should only take a few moments to switch back to 4G after the call ends, but if your phone is sending/receiving any data at the time, it might stay on 3G/2G to finish that off.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coorsleftfield:
What you said is correct , on Sprint the phones switch to 3G to take the voice call. After hanging up my Nexus 5 and LG G3 both instantly switch back to LTE where the 6P often remains stuck on 3G for some period of time .

Could be sending data but I would think I'd see the same behavior on my other phones. Not a deal breaker but curious if anyone else on Sprint sees the same behavior.

[XDA Assist] MyKeyC:
Hi there.

I've realised an issue with regards to the Google Play store website (as opposed to the play store app), as a source of apps. Specifically this relates the roms ported from 64bit architectures such as the S6/Note 5 roms for the Note 3. Because now the play store recognises my device as a Note 5 (64bit), but in reality my device is only 32bits. So therefore, won't apks of the incorrect architecture be sent through to the device?, and is there anyway around this?

Obviously I can still use my devices app, but sometimes it is more convenient (as when I'm trying to recharge my device) to access the play store as I'm charging.

cheers in advance.
