I KNOW, RIGHT !? :D Hopefully, all that I have is a dead battery. Guess I'll see soon enough. Now, if only there were a way to get a fingerprint reader on this device, I wouldn't update till the N5's no longer updated. (What's the official term for that, anyway? Not EoL, is it?..)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Let's hope it is genuine. I bought one from Aliexpress that looked just like an original but people said it is not an original because the temperature would not go above 29c. I don't know if it is original but it's works fine.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kain144000:
Well, got the battery and NOTHiNG !! So, idk, maybe my N5's just dead. But, the supplier might as well have been from China - Typos, terrible English, the whole 9... Also, my OEM battery's by Sony, but this one says Samsung, so who knows?.. :: shrugs:: I don't trust these companies anymore. Thanks for y'all's input, though.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
So not LEDs, no vibration, nothing?

If you have access to a Windows computer, connect the phone to the computer. Does anything appear in device manager?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kain144000:
Nope. NOTHiNG !! Its fine, though. My g/f'd given me her VZW HTC One (M7). So, that'll haveta do till I get my next Nexus (which'll be either a 5X or Google's 2016 offering, if I like the direction the rumors go in...). So, now... OFF to the M7 boards !! Godspeed, everyone ! Godspeed. lol

Baseband/modem I747UCUFNJ2, stock 4.4.2 rooted. Phone from AT&T working ok with Claro Brazil (code unlocked) . After upgrading, lost IMEI. Flashed new modem and IMEI and IMEISV ok now. Checked IMEI number, is the same printed behind battery on phone. But now can not make calls. Got message 'No SIM card'. Ordered a Sim card tray, replaced it, but got same message. Phone has strong carrier signal. After reading a lot, I ordered a paid unlock code, but seller stated that code doesnt work in android 4.2.2. Even though, I tried to insert it once. (#@7465625*638*# - have to use it since phone doesnt ask for code at starting). As stated by seller, got message 'unlocked unsucessfull'. So now, what can I do to unlock the fone ? I have access to a hiden menu by dialing *#197328640# , but dont know how to use it. I have read a lot during this week. Did no find any helpfull information. Any help will be apreciated. Sorry for my bad english.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Sounds like the baseband and bootloader and too new for the ROM. You probably need to upgrade from stock 4.2.2 to stock 4.4.2 or flash a custom ROM based on a TW-kernel.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] erbipjr:
I edited/corrected my wrong information. The phone is on 4.4.2 stock already.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Try this:

Method 1:

Go to the dial screen and press #7465625*638*#

Once prompted for code, enter 8 digit Unlock Code.

Method 2:

Turn off your Samsung phone

Insert a non-accepted sim card (different from the original carrier) and turn your phone back on.

When prompted for the unlock code type the UNFREEZE code provided. If you are not prompted, go to your dial screen and type the UNFREEZE code, now press enter, send or call. You will receive an unsuccesfull message, don't worry.

Once the phone freeze is disabled, the Network lock or SP Lock screen will appear

For Network lock enter the UNLOCK code provided. For SP Lock enter the SERVICE PROVIDER code

Your phone is now fully unlocked!

If you get "unsuccessful" again then hit Dismiss button and type *2767*3855# on phone keypad and try this procedure again (CAUTION! This will reformat all your data!).

Method 3:

You can try this method without the sim card or with the original sim card

Type #7465625*638*CODE# (CODE is the Unlock Code)

Phone deactivated message means its unlocked

"Turn off Network Connection to run Benchmark app" error when trying to open AnTutu

I am trying to open AnTuTu app that I installed directly from the Play Store. I get this error when taping on the icon to launch it. Instead it opens settings to the app info page. Also a toast pops and saying "Turn off Network Connection to run Benchmark app" http://imgur.com/S6rL6yY. When I turn off WiFi and data, the app opens but I can't load any rankings or specs, etc. It seems like LG put this in or something because I have no idea why the dev. would do this?

Has anyone else noticed this tablet has a God awful amount of motion blur? Even pulling down the notification bar you can see it but its mostly noticeable when playing 60FPS content on YouTube

Its sooo bad!! And now I've seen it I can't unsee it.
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superchilpil:
I have had a tablet that hasn't had it to be honest.

But I will say the temperature of the device (screen to be exact) that plays a role in it too. The colder your screen is the more dramatic the effect.

Hopefully when some Custom roms hit there is a chance to try and change it. I've never seen it this bad on a Tablet tbh
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rancor187:
Hi,

I bought a Samsung S6 Edge two month ago without doing my research. I thought rooting was just as easy and seamless than my Galaxy S1 in 2010. But I was wrong, not only would I lose Knox and other stuff, but it turned out that Samsung is really not root und custom rom friendly. So I returned to phone … ****.

When I was looking for another phone the Xperia z5 really got me. This time I’d do my research beforehand. Unfortunately Sony is almost as bad as Samsung with their new bootloader :(

I do need a new phone, and I am still sticking to the Z5 despite the bootloader issue, so I was asking myself, do I really need root?

I don’t really need to install a custom rom, it would be great, but I don’t really need the option. What I want is to restore my APPs + DATA to the Z5. I used Titanium Backup for years but it requires root.

So maybe there is another way to restore my data from the Nexus 5 to the Z5?

How did you do it?

And what do you recommend?

I appreciate your advice.

Thank you

Suggestion for a good tank-like case for the 5X?
[Nexus 5X Accessories] joshm.1219:
The iblason armor case has the most protection. It has the front bezels fully covered in plastic and a built in screen protector. I have it and it doesn't feel particularly great in hand but its worth it for the protection.

The supcase unicorn beetle is bad ass
[Nexus 5X Accessories] r.spanish:
Another +1 for the Unicorn Beetle. I picked one up and it's fantastic.

I was alwas hesitant about the built in screen protectors for these types of cases, thinking the display might look distorted or sensitivity might be reduced.

Well this may be the case for other brands, but i am now oficially a convert. Screen looks awesome, and sensitivity is great. Supcase have done a fricking good job.

It offers very good protection (probably the best for nexus 5x), the fit is spot on....and, it has dust covers for your ports. I originally wanted a Ballistic tough jacket, but after contacting their suport i have confirmation it doesn't come with dust covers, a shame really.

This is now my 5th case (LOL) but i have finally found the right one. I nearly had a destroyed phone on my hands when i dropped it using a Ringke slim. It smashed my Spigen tempered glass, but survived.

Anyway, if you want a case that is both user friendly, looks good and most importantly built like a tank, then look no further. You won't be disapointed.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] alfick3:
I agree with both on this case. I bought it for my 5X and love it. The fit is great, and it really doesn't add a lot of bulk or size to the phone; especially the sides and top/bottom. The thickness is probably doubled, but then the phone isn't really that thick to begin with, so the added thickness isn't too bad, in my opinion. I, too, like the built in screen protector. I could take or leave the dust covers, but that's just my personal preference.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] r.spanish:
Yes, the bulkiness is something I forgot to mention. Totally agree, it does make the phone thicker but overall doesn't feel too bulky. That's another reason I didn't go ballistic, as I heard they add a lot of bulk. As for the dust covers, I kinda need them in my line of work. There's nothing worse than plugging my phone in at night to hear a *crunch*. I've been using film screen protectors for years, and more recently tempered glass. It took a lot of debating in my head before I gave the Supcase a try. I just hope they are still making good cases like this when it comes time to upgrade my phone.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] g01851:
Which SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle case did you guys get? There seems to be a few variations... slim, heavy duty, etc.

I just took advantage of the Project Fi discount on the 5x, so now need accessories!

Thanks :)
[Nexus 5X Accessories] r.spanish:
http://www.supcase.com/nexus-5x-unicorn-beetle-pro-full-protective-holster-black-black-case.html

I bought this one on ebay locally, there was he option case only/with holster....I bought case only.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] alfick3:
That the same one I got; but from Amazon and at a less expensive price. I paid $17.99 for it with the holster (but I don't really use it all that much).
[Nexus 5X Accessories] KFloyd:
I concur with this-the heavy duty pro is a great case, excellent design and stout. On Amzn, people complained about dots or 'oil slick' on the protector but I'm not seeing it. can't even tell the screen protector is on. My only gripe is it shows EVERY finger print. Being matte or oleophobic would have been better but the prints are only noticeable when off. Ditto on the dust covers - great idea but I can see myself possibly getting tired of them (that's why Xacto's were made :laugh:)

I got the holster which is meh...not a fan of huge ass phones on your hip but it may come in handy if I need to toss my phone in a bag (e.g while on a waterpark ride)
[Zuk Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] debay:
Hey everyone,

so fingerprint was working nicely for a while - but then it got sluggish. Took a couple of tries to get it unlocked and stuff. I (re-)added the fingerprints which helped at first. Then adding new fingerprints was sluggish as hell to a point where it didnt recognize my finger at all.

Camera app was sluggish as well (unusable) and then after 2-3 reboots it suddenly worked flawlessly again (camera AND fingerprint)! Felt like a cache thing or so...

Then it completely stopped working again!

So I made a factory reset - didnt help! Then I rooted and tried CM13 and CM12.1 - clean wipe etc - no luck at all!

I think it might be broken - but does anyone have an idea or approach I could try?

Thanks in advance!
[Zuk Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Planet X:
I had the same experience after trying cm13. That is what I did. You could give this a try:

Download the fast signed image of COS 12.1 here http://builds.cyngn.com/factory/ham/cm-12.1-YOG4PAS3OH-ham-signed-fastboot.zip

Unzip it

Open cmd or terminal

Go to the unzipped folder

Execute this step by step:

fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn

fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash rpm rpm.mbn

fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash sbl1 sbl1.mbn

fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash dbi sdi.mbn

fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash splash splash.img

fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash tz tz.mbn

fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash persist persist.img

This will restore your bootloader to stock Cyanogen OS. It will remain unlocked. After that you should be able to setup your fingerprints again.

If you want to set new fingerprints, does it also vibrate the whole time?
[Zuk Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JonnyAw:

Guys just send the phone back if it's still in warranty. I sent mine back took about a month to go through the whole process of receiving a new replacement phone. It's highly likely that the fingerprint issue is hardware related and therefore don't void warranty trying to fix issue yourself.

Well, the fingerprint sensor works! The catch to fixing it was that the button is actually tucked under the Digitizer and LCD, so I took off all of the important pieces(Camera, Speaker, etc.) and stuck it in a 400 degree oven for 60 seconds, and then took of the screen, the button fit, I reassembled, and now its working again. Hope that this helps anyone out there with a broken button.

I replaced the fingerprint sensor itself, the ribbon cable is located on the back under the black cover, once the LCD is removed, then the button just pushes out of the slot as if you pressed the button. The new one slipped into place, I powered it on after reassembly and its as good as new. Just don't be nervous and go slowly

---------- Post added at 04:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:02 AM ----------

It sounds horrible, but if you remove the board, and other sensitive electronics, nothing should be harmed, though I would recommend a heat gun instead, I just don't have one:laugh:

---------- Post added at 04:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:04 AM ----------

Yes, give me a moment I will try to upload them, I took them on my old phone
[Zuk Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] P38lightningman:
Okay this will be my first how to I guess!:o

To fix the faulty fingerprint sensor you must

1.) Pry off back of Zuk Z1, should come off with a prytool

2.) Remove the six silver screws off of the black cover by usb port.

3.) Remove ribbon cable for home button (Shown in pics)

4.) If you can use a heat gun, blast around the edge of the screen, there is a lot of adhesive. (For those without a heat gun either purchase one, or preheat your oven to 400 degrees, and make sure to take out the battery, and chip up top as well, otherwise your phone will probably be a nice paperweight.

5.) After heating the screen, carefully hold the phone(You may need a oven mitten or something) and both carefully and slowly pry off the LCD, you only need about 1.5 cm gap to access the button (Be very careful as the LCD is fragile and could break as it is attached to the digitizer, I am not responsible for any damages!) Pull out home button and place new one under screen, make sure to stick the ribbon cable back through the hole.

7.) Reassemble the phone and you should have a working home button and fingerprint sensor.

I really hope this helps, and yes, the old button is faulty, when I click it, there is definitely a difference compared to the new button.

If you can give me thanks or what ever, I would love to be a bigger part of this forum, it is extremely helpful and I would love to give back in anyway that I can!!!;)
