[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] player911:
I currently have the S7 Edge and confirm the "Condensed" mode doesn't really do much. It helps some but my Note 5 is coming today or tomorrow (I don't like the Edge).

I have used the ADB method on my previous phones and know it does not need root. As stated before, it looks like the stock DPI is 560. On my LG G4, we used the 540 DPI, but its stock DPI was 640. 560 seems a little low for a Quad HD resolution. It seems the S7 Edge is 640. The Note 5 may have had a lower stock DPI because the S-Pen allowed for finer control than one with only touch input.

As far as Samsung Apps, stock apps typically are a little finicky. Usually you just need to find a DPI setting that is common. 510 may not play nice with Samsung Apps. 520 or other may be recognized and work better. I do not have a Note 5 (yet!) but typically you just have to find a good DPI setting. I think older Galaxy phones used 480, which would probably work better, but may make things too small.

With that said, anyone find a good working DPI that plays nice?

UPDATE

Got my Note 5 today and already can tell the lower DPI difference out of the box compared to the S7E. Feels good. Just for kicks I enabled the Condensed option and rebooted... but didn't even notice a difference. I don't think it actually alters the DPI, but just makes things a little smaller. On both the 7E and N5... I didn't notice any change with the status bar icons/time... only in a few apps.

I have opposite question:

I had note 4 and then a9, both with biggest UI Samsung is offering. I need it, because my eyes...

I know note 4 was 640, note 5 is 560 stock. Is in n5 640 dpi also possible to set?

it is clear that new grace ui is future, it is also present in some roms for n5. this is one of reasons I go with n5. Whnat is its stock dpi (and note 7, probably)? Is scaling possible in it naturaly, as any cm rom

'

thanks a lot
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] King16_93:
DPI Scaling

Yes you can edit DPI setting without root. It's under developer options.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] libove:
I'm travelling outside of my home service area, and I have turned off mobile data (as well as mobile data roaming).

Yet, more than once, I've found mobile data back on.

I'm wondering if I have an app installed which has and is (ab)using the Change Data permission to enable data.

This is a Samsung Galaxy Tab II (GT-P3100) device, running CyanogenMod 11-20160306-NIGHTLY-p3100 (based on Android v4.4.4).

I've looked in CyanogenMod's Privacy manager, and also with the permissions manager app Advanced Permission Manager (by SteelWorks), and I don't see the Change Data permission by itself. Lots of apps have permissions to change system settings, so it would be a bit exhaustive to read the full permissions list for every app in that set.

Where would I go looking for a way to answer the question "Which apps on this device have (and, ideally, which have used) the Change Data permission?"

many thanks,

Well....

I just hard bricked my phone on accident. Not sure how it got fully hard bricked, since I just flashed the boot.img and not recovery.

The phone doesn't boot. The backlight goes on and off regularly.

My main reason to change the rom and recovery was because the phone came pre-installed with several viruses. The reason I wanted to change the recovery was because it was in Chinese. But I didn't actualy flash nor change the recovery, I just flashed the boot.img.

Any help is very much appreciated.

Phone model:

MT6572 N820

Backup of the phone: Couldn't post the download link because of spam preventing rules. PM me for the backup link
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MegamanAlphaTeam:
That's not hard-bricked. Well, I'm not sure how was it called. You are flashing a wrong or incompatible boot.img to your phone, making it not wanting boot because you flashed the wrong or incompatible kernel. Try to reflash the ORIGINAL boot.img to your phone back. About recovery.img, that should not be the problem because wrong recovery.img won't do any effect to booting a phone. One more thing, is your phone model really MT6572 N820? It's not pretty detailed. I want to help you but the phone model does not look like a phone model... to me.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arunesh90:
The problem with reflashing it is that, I'm not able to get in fastboot nor in Recovery mode, the phone just starts up and then flickers the backlight every so often.

I will search for more details about the phone model later when I'm home

It's a MediaTek which mean you can flash it without battery. I have several Lenovo devices and all of them are MediaTek. If they got bricked, I will reflash them without the battery. I will give you more information after I know that you never know about this.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arunesh90:
Yeah I never knew about this. I'm kinda stuck atm because I don't know how to flash it or even access the bootloader
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MegamanAlphaTeam:
Now prepare your stock ROM, and your flashing tool. But you must confirm that you have the stock ROM and I want to know what flashing tool did you use. Your stock ROM should have some big files like system.img, cache.img, recovery.img, etc.. If your flashing tool is other than SP Flashtool, download SP Flashtool here. <a href=http://spflashtool.com/>SP Flashtool</a>

Make sure you have the stock ROM. Your stock ROM should have some big files inside like system.img. If your flash tool is other than SP Flashtool, download SP Flashtool here: http://spflashtool.com/

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michn5:
Hi,

I'm trying to bring my N5 to life. It has bootloop on Google logo (sometimes stuck on android animation). When i got it it was stock and unrooted. Computer can see the device, adb and flashtool works fine. What i tried to do:

- erase cache and userdata,

- factory reset

- change recovery to TWRP (tried CWM too, both works)

- flashing the factory images (all from 4.4 to 6.0.1)

- flashing factory image using this tool: http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5...kit-v2-2-kwonggers-nexus-5-one-t2508817/page5

- fix persist partition using this solution: http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/general/guide-to-fix-persist-partition-t2821576 -when I'm doing this, adb see my device and after using these commands I got only something like: clean, 15/1024 files, 1109/4096 blocks, it is not asking my about repair or change anything...

Unfortunately, it still has got bootloop. I can't go into recovery when I'm using usb cable, I can start it only without cable and then plug it in. (When it is on and I'm trying to turn on recovery mode it has bootloop on Google logo).

Have you got any ideas what can I do now? Is there a way to fix it?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Try this: manually flash every partition from the stock ROM, including the userdata.img.

After flashing the userdata.img file, immediately boot into stock recovery using the power and volume buttons and perform a factory wipe.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michn5:
Hey, thank you for your answer. Unfortunately after flashing every partition and factory wipe it still has bootloop. But before i did it, it wanted to charge my Nexus, I just plug USB and suddenly I realised that there is a Welcome screen! Everything was running good, WiFi was working... I turned on USB debugging and reboot it to check what happens, but it won't turn on again, now it is again with bootloop :( Any other ideas?

They are available here.

Would any of you be interested in a small wrist lanyard or a neck lanyard that would be custom made for the kaiser? I am having some made for me, but I would need to order in bulk, and I don't have the need for more than one :)

Either way, I just talked to the rep who makes them, and I gave him some specific requests for a custom lanyard that would:

A: Not have any material that could scratch the Kaiser

B: Would have the smallest quick release connector made

C: Would have the smallest strap that would fit around your hand to get on your wrist, thus leaving only the minimal hanging strap when in a case.

D: Would be Black to match the Kaiser

E: Could have custom imprinting on the strap to say.... Kaiser, TytnII, HTC, whatever we would want it to say.. or nothing at all.

Let me know if anyone would be interested. I'm pretty sure the cost would be less than a few bucks... Either way I will be ordering them for myself.

JB
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] RemE:
I'd be in for a couple.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Buzz313th:
Excellent... Anyone else?

RemE: You would be good with the small wriststrap correct?

JB
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] RemE:
Yes, and I've liked this type minimal length lanyard for other small things like cameras as well, that's why I'd like a couple.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Amlethae:
If you're putting a quick release on it anyway; how about making a wrist strap & a neck lanyard matching pair that has the same connector... easy to switch off between them. I think that'd be cool and worth a few extra bucks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Buzz313th:
Thats a great idea... Ok, will do that. I will give those the options to choose one or both...

Give me a few days and I will have em...

Check these guys out, they may have what you need already.

http://www.rivetnow.com/

http://reviews.cnet.com/headphones-headsets/rivet-rhythm-earphone-lanyard/4505-6468_7-31753449.html

Note, thay also make an attachment that threads through any spot meant for a camera type wrist strap. Not sure if the Kaiser has one of these, but it looks like it may from the pictures I have seen.

The thing I like about this system is that you can use the clips with more than one device.

One thing to note though, I tried the Harmony headphones with my 8125, and could only get one side of the headphones working. Seems the 4pin 2.5mm connectors used on the 8125 do not have any type of standard for how they are wired. I am guessing this would not be the case with the Kaiser, but you would need to use the usb to 3.5mm adapter in conjunction with the rivet offerings.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Buzz313th:
Thanks for the link... but the lanyards they have, use metal adapters and that is what I am trying to avoid. The metal adapters will scratch the device. Not to be too anal, but when you pay 800 for a device, it's always a good idea to keep it in mint condition to have a good resale when the next hot device comes out.

JB
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] jgermuga:
Spend a bit more and get this then...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=333707

I'd say it has easily prevented $20 worth of scratches on my wife's iPhone already and it also has just a slightly tackier feel to it, so the phone doesn't slip out of your fingers as easily, although the OP on this link indicates the Kaiser already has a tacky backplate, probably for that very reason.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Buzz313th:
Thats a great idea as well... But my own reason for wanting a lanyard is to help me pull the device out of the belt case that I use to carry it in... Almost everytime I have dropped a phone, it has been when I am taking it out of the case... With the lanyard on it, It will be easier to pull out, as well as keep it from hitting the ground.

I have been super busy at work, but I will be making the phone call very soon to get the lanyards...

JB
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Buzz313th:
Well... I just finished getting a quote for the lanyards...

Looks like my idea is getting stomped...

The company wants a minimum order of 100 units at 1.52 per unit... That means I would have to dish out 160 dollars... Thats fine with me, but I'm concerned I wouldn't be able to get the money back...

Also, they won't send out one neck lanyard and one wrist lanyard with a cell conector, since it would mean that they would have to have more male connectors than female connectors. So the only way is to order half of the lanyards as 36" and the other half as 12"...

Either way, they are very nice lanyards and I really want a few for myself. If you all think I could get rid of 90 of them then I will go and order them...

Another Idea I had, was to have, "XDA Developers" prnted on the lanyard, and the site can use them as a way to help get donations.... such as selling lanyards for 5 bucks or so...

Gimme some feedback if ya all would please.

JB
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] RemE:
I'd pop for 10, short ones.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] jgermuga:
I take enough pride in my geekness to buy something branded with XDA Developers, but I don't have a need for a lanyard.

It's a pretty good idea though. You may want to get it out to a broader audience via another more general post, as I am sure the interest would apply for other devices as well. Me thinks one of the moderators should be able to help out with this.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Buzz313th:
Ok, I will order the Lanyards with, "XDA Developers" on the lanyard. The lanyard will be polyester black, and the text will be a dark grey. I'm not into big bright text, I like being low key.

:D

It will be 50 neck lanyards and 50 small wrist lanyards.

I don't think I will have an issue getting them outa my hands.
