Perhaps, however I am on a contract :) maybe there are a lot of people who bought it outright? I think it's due to the volume of development, it paves the way for choice. When they're far and few between people tend to have shorter and less patient tempers.

Yup, great crowd in this corner of the site. :)

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CharlesDicken:
nexus 5 running cata with franco kernel, however when ever I charge it up, it quickly looses 20%. I literally just let the phone sit there. Time for a new battery?

I tried the wifi leaking bug, by turning off scanning already.

Same problem with stock rom and ElementalX kernel. It loses battery at a shocking pace, even when idling and screen off. With screen on and on 4G I roughly lose 1% per minute. Phone is basically unusable. Always carrying a 10k mAh power bank at all times.

Might be unrelated but I had my screen replaced (in China). Since then I feel the battery life has deteriorated substantially.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] alimas3:
Hello,

I have a Sprint Samsung Galaxy SIII SPH-L710 that's now stuck when booting up.

I tried to replace the services.jar and services.odex under /system/framework/ based on http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=62215865&postcount=604 .

Before I did that, I saved the original files on the sdcard.

As soon as the second file got copied (not sure which one got copied first), the screen shows the Samsung word that's glowing. Rebooting will eventually end up in the same place after briefly hearing the Sprint (yellowish) animated picture.

Is there any way that I can restore those 2 files back to the original without reflashing? I can only get "adb devices" to list a "sideload" entry when going through the stock recovery sideload mechanism. I'm unable to "adb shell" into it.

Any pointer on how to restore my SGS3 without going reflashing would be appreciated.

If I do need to reflash, do I use the latest Odin? I'd appreciate pointer to the most recent thread on that, too.

Thank you for any help!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
You can get the newest Odin here

First, download the latest .tar for the sprint s3 (nj2 is the newest one here)

Just put phone in download mode. From powered off, hold power+volume down+home. Launch Odin. Plug in phone, wait until odin says "added" , click PDA (or ap if that's what that version of Odin has).

Select the .tar you downloaded and click start.
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ElBandolero.pt:
Hi guys,

I recently bought this phone and it already had a problem on the last OTA update, a network trouble which didn't let the phone get the sim network working, so I flashed a firmware from here which was pre-rooted.

Everything is working fine, less the apps which everytime I install/uninstall causes the phone to restart almost EVERYTIME...

Plus the storage so poor (4GB) already full, I have Link2SD installed but I can't install directly on the SD, only on the phone storage, what is impossible already.

Hope somebody can help with this, i'm not a pro but neither a newbie.

Thanks.

Converted my HTC M8 to GPe 5.0 last year and recently updated it to 6.0, and since then every picture MMS I receive is compressed to the point that when you open it, its too pixelated to view. As well I cannot send MMS anymore.

I've tried Google Messenger and Hangouts for MMS with no success in sending. I've verified my APN settings with my carrier but still not luck. Not much comes up when I search the web for this problem, but other possible solutions include disabling any ad block (which didn't work) and uninstalling Pushbullet (which I don't have).

Anyone else experience this?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avg2424:
Does the problem apply to pictures only?

Can you send a text MMS? like a group text

Have you checked the permissions for the native messaging app?

Have you checked your maximum message size setting?

Have you tried deleting your APN and restoring or recreating it? sometimes looks can be deceiving
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slbp180:
No, I cannot send any MMS both group and photos.

Messenger has full permissions for everything it's requested.

Maximum size limit is 300kb, which is far below my carrier limit (and I cannot change it).

Yes, I've deleted and manually created my APN with various settings at least 3 times just to make sure.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badbread:
I am having a similar issue with the latest GPE MM RUU.

Seems like group messages from iPhones in particular get stuck and need to be "manually downloaded" after they fail. Sending SMS messages hang on the first attempt as well. I have to wait for it to fail and then try again.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slbp180:
Well found an odd fix that appears to have worked for me.

Went into SETTINGS > APPS > Settings Icon on the right top > Default APPS the default BROWSER APP field was empty. I set it to Chrome, rebooted the phone and within seconds the MMS messages were sending and receiving..

I am still waiting for VZW's new XV6800...

I got to play with an Alltel 6800. All black and just like the Mogul. NIIIICE!

Is there any way to get one of these to work on VZW's network? I am tied to this network and really like Alltel's version of this PPC phone.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] 510jungleboy:
I agree. I like the All Black look.....I have the Mogul Bugle though...silver/grey..yuck
[Mogul, XV6800 General] mwheeler2:
Alltel to VZW

If Verizon will activate the ESN (check the ESN of any phone you intend to purchase to make sure it hasn't been submitted for an insurance claim), then it's just a matter of re-provisioning (programming) the handset to use with Verizon. Since Alltel doesn't use MSL (Master Subsidy Lock) for their devices, they are easily configured for other carriers.

With a bit of research and time, this is easily accomplished. The transition isn't as simple as that of GSM devices, but not daunting in the slightest. Feel free to PM with any questions you might have.

Cheers,

Mick

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonnyredcorn:
I'm using "Moonshine" icon pack with Nova Launcher and Today Calendar. The app icon for Today Calendar is dynamic and the date on the icon corresponds with the current day(for example today it is the 12th and the icon has a 12 on it. I want to change the icon to the blue one in the photo below in the second picture under Google Apps and have it be dynamic also(which it should be able to do as I had used it before some time ago and it changed along with the date). As you can see in the third pic there are icons for each date also. However if I change it to any other icon it does not change dynamically. If I select the icon that has 31st on it under the Google list, or the 12th in the group of calendar icons 1-31 it doesn't change dynamically. Since I had the blue one set before and it change dynamically and there are icons for the 1st through there 31st(I'm sure it's not meant to be changed manually every day) I'm sure it's possible, I just don't know how to get it to do it.

[XDA Assist] :
Hello, I've impulsively bought a Huawei Ascend Y6. That's my fault and all, but I'd like to be able to install a custom ROM on it at the very least.

However, I see very little information on it over the web, and I can't find any ROM which supports it. Is there some way I can install my own OS on the device, without GApps and with F-Droid instead? What should I be doing if I want to get a custom ROM installed on this device when I get it?

Thanks very much for your time.
[XDA Assist] Art Vanderlay:
Hi,

Thanks for using XDA Assist.

I just had a quick look and I couldn't find any Y6 specific development. I see that you've already opened up your own thread. If you don't get a response there then feel free to ask in the friendly Q&A thread here->[Ask Any Question][Newbie Friendly] .Experts there may be able to help you.

Good luck :)
[XDA Assist] :
Yep, I'm asking around a lot here. No Y6 ROMs, as you've mentioned. So far, my options are to root the device and purge as much nasty stuff out of the phone as I can, mail the phone back and buy something much more expensive (IMO this phone has good hardware for the price), or try my hand at developing myself.

I can only imagine that things would go very wrong if I tried the last option. There don't seem to be any third-party recovery modes for the Y6, so I wouldn't be able to screw up at all. So I guess that's out of question.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] nitin2k:
Hello Daniel,

I upgraded my GT-P6200 from 4.1.2, to Marshmallow 6.0.1 using the file cm-13.0-20160106-UNOFFICIAL-p6200, and the relevant Gapps file. While the upgrade to marshmallow worked smoothly and was successful, I am not able to import phone contacts, call records, text messages from my KIES backup. I even tried installing KIES 3, but with no success. If I am unable to import my phone contacts, I may have to go back to 4.1.2.

I faced the same issues a couple of months back when I tried upgrade to Lollipop.

Could you please advise as to the solution. Has anyone else faced the same problem when upgrading from Android 4.1.2 to Lollipop or Marshmallow?

I just got a notification about new security patches. It seems to me that if all its doing are small security tweaks I can update safely with this OTA update and still retain root and everything else. Can someone chime in?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dratsablive:
The update will not work while you are rooted.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] will.bates94:
What's preventing it? And to get around it is it just a simple unroot or will I basically need a relocked bootloader and everything else?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dratsablive:
It depends on what method you used to root. If you have a systemless root, then you need to flash stock

boot.img

recovery.img

If you have a non-systemless root you will need to flash

boot.img

system.img

recovery.img
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] will.bates94:
I do in fact have systemless. But why is this all necessary just for a small update that doesn't even change major files of M?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dratsablive:
Because the updates checks for any changes to the system. And you need stock recovery because the OTA does not work with TWRP.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] murphyjasonc:
Just download the update and flash it using fastboot if you are on stock. You will have to flash the entire google image instead of the small incremental update but its easier than unrooting or flashing system and stock recovery which you will have to do in fastboot also.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] will.bates94:
I am in fact stock software wise. But flashing the entire Google image will reset data and everything else won't it?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] murphyjasonc:
It will not wipe the data on your internal SD card. It will only over write your system partition. You will have to set your phone up and download your apps or restore them from titanium backup but all your personal data such as pictures will not be deleted.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Blahages:
I'm looking up update to a new phone, and I ran into this question that I've never thought about... I've never had to do an update to my bootloader (After it was unlocked, That I'm aware of) when going between Android 4.x, 5.x, and 6.x. I know there are new kernels/boot.imgs, but never noticed a bootloader update. Unless I'm missing something, from what I can tell other phones (even ones that are unlocked) seem to "require" an updated bootloader to allow the newer code in the OS to boot.

If this is all true, and I'm not missing something obvious, why is this? Did someone rig the kernel or OS on our phones to allow using an older bootloader or something? I'm seeing responses on other sections of the site for other phones like the G4 T-Mobile (Which doesn't have a locked bootloader) and some other places that a Marshmallow update to CM or another AOSP-like cannot be done until the carrier releases 6.x for the phone, even if the International variant of the phone has the 6.0 update.

[IMG="Sony Z4 Prototype"]http://i.imgur.com/ijBeNs7.jpg[/IMG]

I bought second hand z4 from some guy who work for Sony. How to flash normal (not prototype) rom in this device? Everything works fine, Camera., Apps, Android os is 5.0.2 kernel 3.10.49, everything is smooth, but there is anoying message "You have crash artifacts to upload" all the time!? If I cant flash normal rom, is there any method to kill that message? Thanks..
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbil:
I believe that sticker talks for itself and my advice would be not to be so open about this transaction.

In any case unless you have an EMMA account with relevant privileges you can't do much.

If you are lucky enough and Sony enables OTA updates for customer acceptance firmware applicable to the variant you have then at least you might get a firmware update in the future. But if you have as you say the crash handling app installed then probably you have an quite old FW which might not get any OTA.
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bite_my_shiny_metal_ass!:
Is there any way to instal new firmware without OTA? I think for z4 actual android official version is 5.11? If i kill process com.sonymobile.crashmonitor.system and com.sonymobile.crashmonitor.ui anoying message "You have crash artifacts to upload" is gone. Z4 is alredy long time on the market, so stickers now dont have much point anymore?
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbil:
The last part is something you need to discuss with Sony but I don't believe a prototype unit on the loose is something they don't take seriously.

If I were you I'd ask the seller to take it back and refund you because as I wrote the only option for updates you have is either EMMA access with the proper permissions to download customer acceptance firmwares, someone with such access to give you the firmware or sony to enable OTA for customer acceptance firmware. The latter happens some times.

With the current firmware you have you can of course kill as you said some processes to get rid of the crash monitor app and notifications but there are still other debug bits enabled. If the firmware has root access enabled - there are such debug firmwares and you can check that from adb shell with su - you can clean it up a bit more.

That is all I can provide as info.
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bite_my_shiny_metal_ass!:
Solution is very simple. I download latest firmware 28.0.A.8.260 with XperiFirm and flash with flashtool and everything works perfect! No anoying messages anymore, nothing..
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbil:
Prototypes have a different bootloader so you can't flash retail firmware on it and vice versa.

Up to Z3 tablet this was valid also for tablets, if they changed that in Z4 then you are lucky.

November and Dec security updates = 2

End of Oct 1 "big" update on about 200MB and then one in beginning of Dec that was not the security update.

However if I had only got 2 I would not consider my phone worse. Might have just been that the firmware you have is either stable or not used for beta testing other things as they always do it with some.

So not always a down-side.
