[Nexus 6P Accessories] PaulQ602:
I have had the LG Urbane for about 6 months. It's currently $235 on Amazon. I like it but, like most Android Wear watches, it's a bit big. At least it looked more like a regular watch with its round face design. I used it religiously everyday.

Then...I recently got the Samsung Gear S2 Classic.

The Gear S2 uses Tizen OS. I am a serious Android supporter and I do think Android Wear is an excellent operating system. I always thought it was silly to make a watch with an entirely different OS.

The Gear S2 just nails it. It is smaller, thinner and truly looks like a regular watch. The rotating dial is genius. Beautiful screen. Great battery life (I think it could go 2 days). Since Samsung designed Tizen and the watch, they work together to maximize the experience.

I do miss the extensibility of Android Wear with all of its apps. The Gear S2 is severely limited when it comes to add-on apps - there are only a few and they aren't very good. The Urbane is more functional because it is more deeply integrated with the Android OS on your phone.

The Gear S2 will bring all of your phone's notifications to your wrist. You can respond to texts with prepared responses which you can customize to some extent. It will allow you to actually read your Gmail on your wrist (admittedly, I don't do this often - just take note of the subject and get out my phone if I need to respond to it). It can display your calendar/schedule. It has other built in features as well - weather, heart rate and you can control the music on your phone.

In my opinion, the Gear S2 is the best smartwatch available on the market today.

The Gear S2 was on sale on Amazon but that might have ended. It's also more than $150 but your gift cards could cut the price in half.

I went with the MS Band 2and couldn't be happier.

It doesn't have all the features of the Android watches, but it's awesome at what it does.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] LucKyPunk:
Depends

I'd say it depends if your a watch guy or a Tech guy. I've had several "Smart" watches, although some not so smart.

I've had the Neptune, nike fuelband, Sony SW1, Samsung gear active, Moto 360, and now the TAG HEUER connected.

If you your really going to use the android features the 2nd gen moto is probably the best for it's battery/cpu combo. If you are going to use the features occasionally but want to check the time on a nice looking timepiece get the huawei.

The TAG offers the best of both worlds but at a price

Just My $.02

I had a first gen Moto 360 and now have a Huawei Watch. I really, really like the Huawei watch, so I'd recommend that. But the Moto 360 2nd gen is also a totally great contender depending on personal preferences.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] kellybrf:
had the zenwatch and really liked it, but was ready to move onto something round. I tried both the new 360 and Huawei watch and the latter was hands down better for me. the display is just soooo good, it was a night and day difference between it and the moto. personally I also think the design is better, but that's subjective. you can tell Huawei used better quality stainless steel though
[Nexus 6P Accessories] 400ixl:
The next gen will probably b the first ones to really pull together the experience people really want. Most I have seen so far have been compromised in one way or the other, not that it makes them a bad purchase, just not quite there yet.

Will be interesting to see what comes out of CES in January. I will be looking at smart watches coming out in the next gen, but wouldn't jump on one quite yet personally.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] mjs2011:
Thanks. I heard that it doesn't work with the Nexus 6p though. Is this true? Or has it been fixed?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] PaulQ602:
Using it everyday right now with my 6P.

I think there was a Marshmallow bug that did cause a problem but a software update on the watch fixed it.

Sent from my Nexus 6P
[Nexus 6P Accessories] mjs2011:
Awesome thanks! I didn't even consider this watch because I assumed it wasn't compatible so now I'm going to need to do some more research.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] votum:
I have a Garmin 630.

Only thing I'd use a wearable for is checking the time and activity tracking. Activity tracking is lacking on most wearables, including fitbits. My Garmin tells me real valuable information to me like how much vertical movement my body has when running, how long each foot stays on the ground, has far better GPS than any other smart watch I've tried, lasts about 2 weeks on a charge if you use the GPS every day for an hour or so, has an app store which adds more cool stuff, and is basically the same size as the moto 360 (80mm face). I love mine, and I've tried lots. My local BB probably hated seeing me coming in with a box every few days lol.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Izeltokatl:
I'm planning on getting the Huawei watch. It actually seems tio be the best in class, plus most android reviewers seem to like it best to date.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] slaydog:
LG Watch Urbane is great
[Nexus 6P Accessories] WisdomWolf:
I'm with Laike, Pebble Time. I can't recommend it enough. I charge it once a week and the screen is always on. That means no weird gimmicks to wake it up to look at the time, which is all the difference in the world.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] mjs2011:
Thanks all. I ended up going with Huawei Watch. There were a couple of intriguing options. Even the Pebble Time looked really cool but all the comments about it being too hard to read indoors scared me off.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Pilz:
Personally I've owned 4 different wearables, and the Huawei Watch is the best hands down. I had the Samsung Gear Fit, LG G Watch (original one), LG Urbane, and of course the Huawei Watch. The Urbane was a nice watch, but the battery life was okay despite having a 33% larger battery than the Huawei to got worse battery life. The Huawei looks phenomenal with its AMOLED display, brush SS sides and polished SS front. I typically get 1-3 days of battery life depending on my usage, and it looks so much like a normal watch that people are surprised to see that its a smart watch. I get a lot of complements from it, (even from apple watch people) which is funny considering that I don't see it as anything more than a watch. I use it daily for everything randing from Google Keep shopping lists, my Starbucks card/loyalty cards to just checking the time and notifications. All of the things I just mentioned can be done on any AW watch, but the Huawei does it with class and style. The Moto 360 gen 2 has a washed out looking LCD display in my opinion, and the LG Urbane had a excellent display that list lacks good battery life. It really comes down to what you like in terms of style, and how much you want to spend. The Huawei isn't the cheapest option, but the design of it is my favorite.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] bill3508:
Using the Gear S2 also, probably the most comfortable watch I've owned. 2-3 day battery life also is great.

[HTC Desire X] Will_Xda:
Might be worth posting this in a different Desire sub forum mate, as this one is pretty dead (looks to be a few in the 500 - 600+ range.) Also not entirely sure on what the issue as your post indicates a few issues unless I'm misreading, Have you checked the sim/sim card reader on phone to make sure neither is damaged/ get a new sim with same number and tariff ? Also how are you trying to reset the device as this can be done a few different ways ?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] falcone900:
Hi guy just bought my tab s 8.4 2 months ago and have upgraded to 5.0.2 but it lags alot and it is not as smooth as kitkat. There was a notification stating that update of the software is available now and i proceed to update to lollipop. Was it me who upgraded it wrongly or lollipop is like that? anyways to make it better or can go back to kitkat with out voiding the warranty? Bought it in Malaysia..

Thank you for any responses.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flhthemi:
Some people say that after an OTA update doing a full factory reset will help get rid of the lag. Others say wiping the cache partition will improve things and this method leaves your apps alone and you loose nothing but the lag and cached data.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Akopps:
I honestly don't see much difference between 4.4, 5.0, and 5.1 for my purposes. However, 5.x has better support for various applications writing to sd card, so that's why I prefer 5.x. Yes, some people have said that the best way to update is to effectively do a full factory reset. Third party apps and their settings may not be responsible only for performance, but also for battery drain. Once the ROM is installed, go into settings of every app you don't use and make sure to turn off any automatic activity such as cloud services, automatic anything, and notifications. Seems to have with idle battery use a lot.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tinderbox (UK):
Some report a lot of problems with Lollipop, most report none, I am quite happy with Kitkat and i am unwilling to risk the upgrade to Lollipop for the very little improvement, Kitkat has been very stable for me a ran my T800 for over 157day`s without shutdown or rebooting, I just needed to re-calibrate the battery (just maintenance), no slowdown or any problems, i have rooted so i have full access to the microsd.

I will upgrade to Marshmallow if we get it, supposedly from April 2016 phase 2, which is good, As phase 1 should expose any major problems and they should be fixed for phase 2.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] falcone900:
i am in dilemma now. should i downgrade it to kitkat or reinstall lollipop? but none of these 2 options i know how to do...
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tinderbox (UK):
Be careful with the 8.4" one of the biggest problems is screen flicker/battery problems caused by a loose battery connector, possibly even slight repeated bending can cause the battery connector to come loose, maybe a stiff case can prevent or reduce the chance of this happening, just a word of warning.

John.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] falcone900:
thanks sir fpr the advice. Do u know if downgrade to kitkat or reinstall the lollipop will it void my warranty?

Sorry I dont know anything about flashing the Tab S, the Guy to ask is TAB S owner ASHYX send him a PM, he can bite you head off a bit, if he has to repeat himself, but he knows his stuff.

John.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
My advice to you would be to factory reset first to start with a clean slate, as said this can solve many issues. Sometimes it is a misbehaving app/apps that cause issues and not the fault of the rom itself.

Lollipop is fairly mature now and Samsung have fixed many issues with regular updates so lollipop should be more or less bug free and should certainly run better than kitkat due it's new architecture.

If you are still set on downgrading then as long as you flash the stock KK firmware for your device there will be no issues, warranty or otherwise.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] falcone900:
Thanks a lot for your advice. I think i will do a factory reset and see how it goes.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JacoboBlandonPineda:
Hello there,

I've been searching for a while a ROM for the Samsung Galaxy S5 based on Marshmallow that supports the fingerprint scanner, the heart rate sensor and the IR blaster (yes, I even need that) since TouchWiz gets slow and kills my battery (not to mention that it's still based on Lollipop).

The question that I have is, Is there any ROM available that supports all of this features? On what variants is it compatible?

If you have seen, or even tested one with those features, please let know all of the other S5 owners.

Thank you in advance.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BLEK0TA:
im thinking until will Samsung made official MM (and free source codes) until that will be not supported in any rom
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JacoboBlandonPineda:
Thank you for that quick answer.

I wonder if Samsung will make the fingerprint scanner compatible with Marshmallow's Fingerprint API so it's easier to support on custom ROMs.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brianinmaine:
I have a US Cellular version currently running CyanogenMod 13.0 and I can use the pedometer, heartbeat detector and infrared TV remote just fine. The only sensor that does not work is the fingerprint scanner which is not and will not be used on any AOSB based version due to closed sources. Good luck!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JacoboBlandonPineda:
Oh really? Well, that makes everything even more nice. I hope Samsung releases the source code for the fingerprint scanner soon.

[Lenovo A6000/Plus Questions & Answers] Mr. AW:
Revert Back to KK without Lenovo Downloader

you don't have to use lenovo downloader to downgrade.

if you're using lenovo A6000 you can use this base switcher from rahulsnair (download file "Lolipop Base System by rahulsnair@xda .zip")

But if you're using lenovo A6000 plus I can give you base swither for lenovo A6000 plus.

after you get the file, just flash using custom recovery.

after finished, flash your stock or custom KK rom.

How exactly does this target load list work - why the loads are not progressive, but 85 - 90 - 80? set target to 90% load at 1.1ghz, but then we want 80% at 1.3ghz? Shouldn't the target loads only go up?

[Xiaomi Mi 4i] milav:

The lower frequencies are left untouched. I've been testing this for some time now. Look at the screenshots.
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] mandarin91:
bump (?)

Will we get an answer?
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] haikalizz:
I've fixed the settings, target load will now go up rather than up-up-down... Also these settigs are a WIP, right now this is the optimal settings I have that will provide battery life and performance. I will update the settings each time an improvement is made.
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] haikalizz:
Lower frequencies aren't doing much fr me but I'll try to include them into the formula...
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] mandarin91:
I am talking about these:

If these "aren't doing much" then there will be only five frequencies: 200, 960, 1113, 1344, and 1651.

And most of the time is spent on 200 or 960. Won't the frequencies between 200 and 960 give better battery life?
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] mandarin91:
How can an awesome thread like this die?
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] davtse:
no it doesnt quite work that way. not all lower frequencies will give better battery life. it also depends on the SOC in question and the nature of the SOC. I think hakalizz has mentioned previously of several optimized voltages and frequencies which we don't know for the snapdragon 615. let's use the 615 and some hypothetical values

200mhz - 650mv

400mhz - 650mv

you would have thought that 200mhz would give better battery savings but that isnt the case over here. even though the 400mhz would use more power (even though it is rated the same as 200mhz), technically you get battery savings because 400mhz gets the job done in well, twice the speed of the 200mhz. So you need to either figure out which of your frequencies are optimized in such a way that it can take advantage of the race to idle factor too.

for now i'm still on zzmoove but only to a point where i figure out how to optimize interactive for my own usage (with hotplugging etc)

just to further the point on this advance interactive tweaks - theory-wise and practicality-wise it is sound, you use the best frequencies(Bare minimum that you can stand) and you enjoy battery savings as well. the only issue I see is if you use your phoen differently from the OP. that's why haikalizz says you need to tweak and adjust it on your own
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] mandarin91:
Dude, haikalizz mentioned those frequencies in the post but never implemented them in the settings. That is what I'm saying.

Idle - 345Mhz

Page Scrolling - 533Mhz

Video -800Mhz

App Loading - 960Mhz

High Load Processing - 1612Mhz
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] davtse:
dude, i was responding to your question, should these freq inbetween give better battery life
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] rmusa06:
You must otherwise optimize your phone first! This will not "fix" a poorly optimized system and will, in fact, reduce performance and battery life without further optimization and proper tweaking.

Please tell me how to optimize my phone ?
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] haikalizz:
Debloat, amplify, things like that...
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] rmusa06:
Thank you sir
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] Supermatt01:
What app are you using to implement the changes?
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] Sickaxis79:
Well I got some nice results applying this technique and have overall 1/2 hours more sot using interactive gov. The only profile that works and follows the normal rules is the Ghostpepper profile. I have a moto x play with the same soc so it should work for the mi4i to. First you must calculate the max and min target loads before you can do something power efficient using this technique.

My advice is try to translate the nexus5x ghostpepper profile and replace your min and max target_loads with the ones in the original profile.

And why is this thread just copied and pasted from the original nexus5 thread and only replaced some words with "mi4i". You also forgot the most important part: calculating the min and max target_loads.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TriguyRN:
Hey everyone.

So a few days ago I unfortunately dropped my nexus 6, destroying the screen. It's fully blacked out with no sense of touch. That's what I get for not using a case right. Anyway, I am looking to order a new one very soon and I would like to be able to pick up exactly where I have left off. Because the phone is in completely working condition besides the screen (Proven by using airdroid, android control and adb, as well as my lightflow and everything acting normally) I was wondering what I need to do to be able to put everything onto my new phone. What I think I need to do is run a TWRP backup of system, data, and boot by using the command line, as seen here. After that, I believe I need to use the adb pull command. Once that is all done, can I simply put TWRP onto my new devices, restore the backup, use adb push to replace the contents of my /sdcard partition and boot up as if it were the old device? I think I have it figured out here but, I wanted to run it by the smart people of xda. A couple of notes, although I assume it is irrelevant, are that I am running the PureNexus Project ROM, Elementalx on 6.0.1 unlocked.

Thanks,

agreed you can probably get away with a /data restore after reinstalling your rom but transplanting /system or boot partitions could easily go south. Best to reinstall purenexus with the zip.
