[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] xarugas:
The Honor 5X, imho, is only worth getting if you flash CM13 on it. Otherwise, I wouldn't exactly consider it, especially with the new phones coming out now. You know, if you care about performance and not extra features (specifically the FPS), the LG G3 should be a better phone overall for not much more.

Also, do you not find the OnePlus 2 a better phone for $300? It's basically a souped up version of the Honor 5X, minus the expandable storage. There's also the LG G4 and Moto X Pure. All of the phones I've mentioned are objectively better than the Honor 5X for sub $300.
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Mirror-Mirror:

Agree 100% with this.

The honor 5x is OK for a backup device only because it just doesn't have the package to make it scream.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leif2:
It's been awhile since I messed with any custom roms or anything but I hate all the Samsung stuff all over this S5 I recently acquired. Its running 6.0.1 stock verizon. I'm a little overwhelmed by these forms if someone could point me in the right direction thanks. At the very least I would like to remove these useless Samsung/verizon apps that wont let me but ideally I would remove TouchWiz and get closer to vanilla Android be it a custom rom or what have you. Or any other recommendations, thanks.

I charged my htc one mini 2 (m8 mini) at night and in the mornig It wasn't work. My device is not rooted or not s-off, so it is factory stock. Pressing power button is not working, when i choose recovery on hboot menu, device restarts and stucks black screen and shows me red interjection mark screen, then i press volume up+power button, it says "device CW install: can not found Data". If I choose factory reset on hboot, it is being the same thing ( restarts and stucks black screen and shows me red interjection mark screen, then i press volume up+power button, it says "device CW install: can not found Data").

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyotokyo:
Hello,

It's my first post to this forum and hoping to have any hint.

I'm using ODROID's C2 for my project with a microSD where whole Android (Lollipop 5.1) system is on. After installing apps and changing some setups, now I like to make a complete clone of this card. So I did as below on my Mac.

Saved whole microSD into an image:

$ sudo dd if=/dev/disk3 of=./clone.img

Cloned to another microSD with the image above.

$ diskutil unmountDisk /dev/disk3

$ sudo dd if=./clone.img of=/dev/disk3 bs=1m

But after booting with the cloned card, Android asks for a password on boot up saying "To start Android, enter your password", which I've never set. After entering any code, it says "Decryption unsuccessful" and gets stuck, even though I've never enabled Full Disk Encryption or so.

I wonder if there's any way to clone a working copy that doesn't ask for password. :rolleyes:
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DocSoton:
Been looking for a way to have surround sound headphones, and was originally looking at some Sony's but either too expensive, or only support optical in... so started looking at some of the gaming headsets and wondered if the shield would work with them. I notice that most of these tend to be usb, so wondered if the shield could pass audio from plex to the headset.

I just want to watch movies from Plex and get surround sound through headphones.. simple enough!?
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NiHaoMike:
Surround sound headphones are just marketing. What you're actually looking for is an app that supports HRTF.

Did you ever find out about the surround sound headphone? I've bought 3 different 7.1 gaming headsets but I couldnt get the 7.1 to work via PLEX. Each headset had its own software for the laptop which worked that way so I think its a driver/android issue.

[Xperia Z5 General] langeveld024:
I use tempered glass front and back protectors, from devilcase.

Together with the grey devilcase aluminum bumper which is rock-solid.

The tempered glass protectors won't scratch as fast as foils; i use them for almost a year now and no single scratch even when looking thru a magnifier.

The aluminum bumper will prevent bending in pocket when something heavy lands on my phone in my pocket.

They are quite expensive (for a case) but in my opinion definitely worth it.

Google it, devilcase :)

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benyben123:
Hi everyone.

Please help if you have any advice :(

I dropped my laptop on my OPO and I broke both displays (both OPO and laptop).

This sucks bad because I can barely afford to fix one, let alone two.

I did fix the OPO and - this is weird - I am getting service issues.

I went back to the repair guy (really nice person), and he opened the OPO in front of me and showed me that the antenna is well connected so no issue there.

The issue is very odd: I do get to register my sim on the network (or at least it does show my carrier) but my reception is barely there.

Now I know the OPO has issues showing signal bar (right?) but in any case my signal bar always shows no signal.

I resetted everything and even went back to stock OxygenOS firmware (I think).

Getting barely any service. Tried a different SIM - same problem.

[General Questions and Answers] celalaltul:
I'm using a ROM based on Android 5.0, not rooted, but rooting is doable. I have a set of Bluetooth headphones (JBL Mini Reflect BT) and no audio input is taken from their microphone (not in calls, but neither in apps like Recorder or Skype) and the phone's internal microphone is used instead. Would it be possible to use the BT headphones' microphone in the same way as a wired headset's microphone is used when connected (meaning it would override the internal microphone by default and be used in both calls and apps)? If yes, how should this be done (which apps/which settings)? At the moment I cannot use BT microphone in any of the apps/calls.

Is this because the nexus 6p is not a Verizon phone?

[UMi Super Questions & Answers] yoyoreg:
Hey everyone, this is my first post and the main reason behind it is I am currently looking for a relatively cheap phone that has decent features and a longer lasting battery. These two really stand out for me, especially the slight water resistance the k6000 pro has as I am a landscaper so am always outside working. I am really wanting some good advice from people, so that's why I have come here to seek it. These two phones I thought were best value for money but if people think there are better equivalents to these please let me know. I just want to get the best possible phone around this price point. I apologise if this is the wrong place to ask this but I looked at all other topic tabs and thought this was the best spot to ask. Thanks everyone.
[UMi Super Questions & Answers] Pierre Madden:
Reply

Hi. I totally agree that these are the two phones worth considering when looking for a bang for buck smartphone. In my place the K6000 pro is cheaper than umi super and understandably so. Umi is better in all aspects except for battery. I dont know about the camera though. Umi super is known to have a weak camera esp on low light setting. Its really bad. Either way both phones are the best in its price range. Umi super is no slouch in the battery department either. It can last a full day on heavy usage. K6000 pro will give you at least two days.

Can anyone chime in with ideas of what could be causing my issues?

I am having two separate issues and I don't think they have anything to do with my connections or hardware so it has to be software based.

The system does not appear to shut down correctly because whenever I set the delay to anything other than instant I get an error message telling me that Google disk or a service has stopped responding which then puts me in a loop of hitting the ok button and the only way to recover is to push the reset button

Any ideas

Hi,

How are you?

I want to do "back to rom stock" + re-lock the bl.

Before the procedure I want to be sure that I'm doing the right steps - so, can you please approve that?

1. Downloading the recent "shamu" image (6.0.1 (MOB30W) and Extract directly to Platform-tools folder these:

- shamu-XXXXX.tgz

- shamu-XXXXX.tar

2. Open the CMD from Platform-tools folder and start typing 1 by 1:

- fastboot flash system system.img

- fastboot flash boot boot.img

- fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

- fastboot flash cache cache.img

- fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

- fastboot reboot

Is this process completely bring the N6 back to Google rom stock + re-lock the bootloader?

Hi [MENTION=3098947]istperson[/MENTION]

1) You guess it correctly - I do want to sell it.

(It would be better just to relock and thats it?)

Why would Google's OTA will brick it while it exactly back to stock without root?

2) Can you plz review my 1st message here to tell me if everything is correct?

3) For some reasson (maybe Win10 upgrade) the drivers are not working anymore('fastboot devices' dose not showing anything)

Setting the driver is one of those things that could make me crazy...:cyclops:

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktmom:
No, your steps are not correct. Follow the steps in the link that was provided in post 2.

Any tool would still have to have the drivers properly setup and adb working. The nexus is one of the easiest devices to restore to stock. But there is no magic wand.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] istperson:
If you want to lock it, then leave it as a last step when everything else worked. And the phone is completely back to stock, and booted up okay, and everything.

And Google made a couple of ugly mistakes in OTA-s, and the phones bootlooped. And yes they were not rooted, they were completely stock, because otherwise the OTA wouldn't have installed.

So, if i completely proceed with the all the necessary commands it will also relock the BL.

Do you think that it's better to NOT relock it (but if these commands doing that...)?

Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] istperson:
The bootloader is locked with the "fastboot oem lock" command.

If you're selling it then put it back to the original factory state. Without WiFi and sim card it will not receive updates. So let the new owner decide it he or she will unlock it or not.

Just don't lock it before you checked it boots.

2) Drivers: I made a test - booted the n6 to BL and typed from the folder of the platform-tools: adb devices which gave me combination of numbers+letters ending with 'device'.

Guess that mean that the drivers are setted?

3) Heard something about that it's NOT recommanded to flash the rom stock bc's if the user doing an OTA it will brick the device?

So it better not proceed the 'fastboot oem lock'?

Anyone knows about it?

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] istperson:
adb works in normally booted phone and in recovery. In bootloader mode you use fastboot.

Stock images won't brick your device, but an OTA might. Don't use OTAs, flash manually the updates. But you said you want to sell the phone, then flash stock, lock it, and sell it.
