[P3600 ROM Development] chunga168:
Hi all,

I'm looking for an application that can read SMS out loud (so I can read my sms while driving). Does anyone know of a good application for that?

Also, the WM5 voice commander allows me to call people without recording voice tags, does anyone have any voice commander that can do the same?

thanks all! :)
[P3600 ROM Development] digitalfreeze:
microsoft voice command will do the trick, not sure if there are others. The voice kinda sucks though.
[P3600 ROM Development] TheSlimHim:
I have the pantech duo and when i first got it i made it read my texts as i recieved them. I stopped using that feature and since then I've updated from wm5 to wm6. Now i want to re-enable it reading my texts but I can't find it. I've looked for hours on my phone, online, and even through the manual. All I can find is that microsoft voice command does it but I have no clue how to enable it or how I did it when i first got the phone. How do I enable it?!?!?!

EDIT: I FOUND IT!!!! ok so i know i didn't do it this way when i had wm5 but in wm6 I went into file explorer then /windows/vconfig_sp
[P3600 ROM Development] alaaassem:
could you please tell me how did u do that??

as i want this feature also but i dont know whether it's working with wm6.5 or not!!:o

thanks in advance :)
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galshahaf:
so this is the story,

few weeks ago I had a problem with my Bluetooth connectivity, I took my phone to my service giver here and they replace my mainboard, since then, the phone just reset itself randomly every now and then. it can be after hours or after minutes. must of the time when it's not in use.

I can only spot it if I see it happens or after the reset cause I have a sim password.

I took the phone to get service again but all they do is to fully restore it and then say it's ok. which is.. not, and I took it there twice by now.

I thought that it might be because of some app, but I can't see how an app on a non-root device had the ability to reset it on it's own, and more then that, I didn't install anything new since before it started.

giving my service here on the official retailer Is this, does anyone have an idea of what can I do beside keep putting it to repair again and hope they will spot it?

as I said, it was restored several time by Samsung retailer here, and nothing.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mufrad:
Phones may restart randomly due to wrong bootloader being installed on it, i am not sure about your case though, if possible you can download your phone specific rom from sammobile.com and flash it using odin, more detailed information can be found on the forum about flashing rom. If not, then there is nothing more you can do but take it to the service center again for proper fixing.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galshahaf:
ok. thanks! I don't want to try and change any stuck software so they won't be able to tell me that that's my fault, so hopefully someone will be able to see that there's a problem...

I've a question for everyone, what audio apps are you all using? I got great sound from Xtreme Music but it absorbs lot of memory and makes my frequency stuck at 787 MHz.

The Z5 sound mod on the other hand has 2 options: Extra loud or Extra quiet.

Anyone got other suggestions?
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] Maxz21:

Yeah, I was using that mod. Couldn't control the volume perfectly, it will be extra loud on speaker and very low on earphone and the XLoud speakers keep turning itself on >.>

I installed stock V4A app, CPU is now running low and volumes are perfect.
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] Maxz21:
I agree a bit

Because volume controls are fine

It is a bit loud on x-loud enabled but bringing the volume down helps ;)

Earphone volume can be increased slightly by using equalizer.

Doesn't v4a runs in background always? What about its battery usage?

Can u provide the link

This is the one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2191223. I haven't seen any noticeable drain, and the most I see it do is stay in memory. This app isn't that intrusive I believe, the only worry is you need SElinux set to permissive.

Setting SElinux permissive is necessary even in Z5 port
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] notauseranymore:
I didn't have to. I flashed all my files during a clean install, so the first boot would have them already. It seems to bypass the SElinux requirements too.

[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] justiiin:
Hi guys,

So its time for me to get a new phone again from work, next month.

And as I'm not given an unlimited budget, I'm thinking of getting the Nexus 5X (then I dont need to pay any extre money).

Last time I got the Nexus 5, which still performs great, but its dated and is ofcourse out-performed by my private Galaxy S6.

Two years ago, I actually swapped my personal HTC M7 with the Nexus 5, cause it performed better.

I have the luxury of just using another phone for work, and keep that one for private use, its no problem.

Would you guys think the Nexus 5X might make me do the same again? Swap my S6 for the 5X?

I'm an IT person, so fps drops really grind my gears, in pretty much anything.

How does the 5X hold up on gaming these days? I cant imagine the UI/browsing/scrolling to cause FPS drops, cause that is still flawless on the normal Nexus 5 today.

Anyone else made the switch? Anyone else has this experience?

Thanks guys!
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Castore:
No, it's a medium range phone. Except the lack of biometric sensor, I prefer Motorola Phones.

I'm not totally happy with this phone.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fredrikreiman:
Since the march update the phone is perfectly fine for most tasks. Gaming performance is fine too. But im not to picky. I went from a s6 to 5x. I switched because i killed my s6.... I prefer the 5x.

[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exploreresp:
I have the S7 and the N5X and using the Nexus as my daily driver.

Camera is still better on N5X and the experience always best even though the screen is a lot better on S7 and battery life also is better on S7 (tested several configurations with the N5X and can't make it the whole day with a little bit of music, 2 hours of video playing, and a little bit of browsing and whatsapp during the day).

Great phone that you can own for 280€ in Europe now... so best deal ever.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] george241312:
Going for the new HTC 10 the speaker in this phone is horrible.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pollie81:
I have it for two days now and i love it.. Glad to be back to Nexus!
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vimjam:
try the surround sound mod in Nexus 5x themes and apps section . its a lot better now.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jacquestrapp:
For me, the story starts and ends with Android updates, especially security updates. I'd thinkt that as an IT guy that would be high on your list of priorities as well. With the N5X, you'll get them as long as the hardware is still capable of running the latest Android version. Your S6 is nice now, but with the S7 out, how long do you think Samsung will continue to update the S6? I bought a Galaxy S3 on release around July 2012, less than 2 years later Samsung decided they were done and the phone still sits at Android version 4.4.2, with tons of security holes unpatched, even though here on XDA there are Android 6 ROMs for it. I mean, the S3 is *still*, 4 years after release, the most popular smartphone model in the world when you look at how many are still in use, and nearly all of them are vulnerable to security flaws that were fixed months or even years ago. Meanwhile the Nexus 5 was released a year earlier and is happily running the very latest Android version.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdubya42:
Literally the only issue I have with this phone is the speaker. I'll try the surround sound mod for that.

This phone is plenty fast. I switched from a 6P because it was too big. Going from the 810 to the 808 I haven't noticed a drop in performance, but I don't do anything performance heavy.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2x4:
camera, fingerprint, stock android, quick updates, and dev community are flawless

after the march update, performance is perfect as well, both for normal use and gaming.

the only significant downside IMO, is that the battery is smaller than ideal for my daily use.

Also, and this is a lesser issue, the loudspeaker is sub-par.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mykenyc:
I agree with everyone on the speaker, only other thing i wish was a better build quality, i have to use certain cases to get rid of the creaking plastic sound. For 200 dollars i plan on using this phone until the next Nexus.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pollie81:
The speaker is the only downside for me but I'm going to try some sound enhancements to see of it improves..

Despite of the small battery, battery life is still very good.. Performance is good and nexuses are so freaking smooth!
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koax88:
for me the speaker is bad, but since i dont listen music on speakerphone much,its not bothering me.. the only downside for me is charging the phone. not the speed of charging, but the fear of the phone might catch up in fire. few users had experience this. my 5x performs really good, coming from htc m7, would buy it if LG fix this charging burning issue.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hopesrequiem:
so the easy fix here is don't charge it over night. problem solved.......

Well ****. Lol didn't see that post. Did it say if he was gaming or doing something to stress the CPU? My phone is nice and cool when I charge it but I also don't touch it until its done. Only because fast chargers make the phone get super hot if you use it and charge. Easier to just wait

I would buy it agai. The only improvement I would personally want is a better speaker setup.

Coming from a HTC One M7 followed by Nexus 6, this is horrible. Both had pretty good front firing speakers.

P.S. : Phone is on vibrate mode 10 hrs in the day, so its not much of a hassle, but still.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alarosa88:
Dear XDA followers,

primarily I would to mention my full satisfaction of my device, the ASUS ZenFone ZE551ML (4GB of RAM).

Unfortunatelly, whenever I try to record a video into an environment with a low noise in background (i.e. TV powered on, someone who talks quietly or if I try to register some voice in the distance) I hear like an attenuate sound and it's impossible to recognize who are talking in it.

I'm using the last version of ASUS PixelMaster Camera.

I tried to use other apps but the problem persists.

I've looked in the web to find a solution but uselessly.

It could be a bad manage of the automatic gain control which doesn't work well.

If you have some suggestion for this annoying system, please contact me.

Thank You in advance for Your future answer.

Kind regards,

Angelo

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] matthewdfreeman:
Hi,

I have recently acquired a s7 edge from work but they appear to have locked down the phone using administrator profiles.

No google play (no way of side loading it will just not appear), No developer mode menu (when mode switched on), no way of booting into download mode (keys not work). I can NOT turn on USB debugging mode as the menu option does not appear when I turn it on (it says developer mode is turned on already). I can not do a restore to factory defaults as this option is greyed out and the restore mode option factory reset option does NOT blank the phone. The phone is not recognised by KIES or Samsung Smart Switch and as I can not boot into download mode or enable USB debugging I can not use ODIN/Root tools. I can side loads APK over the WIFI but I can NOT run any app to boot me into download mode as they require root but I am unable to root the phone.

I want to flash to stock firmware so I can use the phone to its full capacity. The only option I can think now is to boot into recovery mode and use the update from SD card option as I can boot into recovery mode.

Can someone provide me download links/instructions for the recovery file for sm-g935f s7 edge that will allow me to flash to stock firmware using the update from SD card option in recovery mode.

Hi.

I did something wrong. Very wrong :( and now i need help from you, the experts.

I've been trying out the new roms (minimalos, cm13, xpe) and once i went in recovery and did a "format "/data". I have no idea why i did that. After that, the phone wouldnt go to os. Tried several things. And now, for example, cwm couldnt show any data. I could flash a new rom but that was all. Tried repitting with I91001GB_4GB.pit or the original one and no difference (heimdall). I had enough of all and i flashed back to stock from sammobile but the problem persists - no data avaliable or internal sd. If i try to take a photo in stock it says "turn off usb storage before using camera".

Mainly, the problem is that i cannot access internal or external storage (well, microsd is accessible via recovery). Nothing shows up in filemanager (stock or cm13) and i cannot use any app that uses storage of anykind (camera, filemanager,...).

Any advice of whats the next step of fixing this back to normal?

I'm on Metropcs and wanted an HTC One GPE

Bought an unlocked verizon HTC One M8

Rooted it with kingroot, then unlocked the bootloader and s-off with sunshine.

Was in the process of changing the model id by flashing it with Golv's MID changer when the usb cord was pulled from the computer (I'll take that to the appropriate thread for THAT discussion)

Now the phone only comes up in bootloader mode, but I have no options (reset, reboot etc) it only says RUU where my options were.

ADB won't detect the phone however fastboot will and when I do fastboot getvar all I seem to have all the original stuff. (Except the CID has been changed to GOOGL001)

I can fastboot reboot-bootloader but the screen comes up as if I did fastboot oem rebootRUU except that there is a triangle in each corner of the screen with an exclamation mark in them.

Yes this is my first time trying anything like this.

Any ideas would be appreciated.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
Why do you use a tool for M7 on your M8 ? You don't need tool to change CID ...

just put the device on bootloader/fastboot mode then open a command prompt from your fastboot/adb folder then type command

fastboot oem writecid xxxxxxxx (where xxxxxxxx is the CID that you want to change to)

for your case just run command to change the CID back to Verizon then run Verizon RUU.

You can find all thing that you need in Verizon threads, not here on general Q&A which is more for Intl GSM.

Ok, just figured out one thing. When using an app to screen off, it asks for the password, but if I use the lateral button, it uses the fingerprint. So, the problem is with the app to screen off...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] avah:
I can confirm this. Just installed Samsung's latest update for S7 and after that, if an app is used to lock the screen (e.g. Screen Off and Lock) the phone always requires pattern (or PIN or password) to unlock. Fingerprint recognition can be used only if the phone was locked by power button or time out. This is not a one-time event. It happens every time and won't go away until you stop using a screen locking app.
