[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deniyulianti:
Hi all.

I have a problem using Android OS on VM-ware that is related on internet connection in Android x-86 version 5.1 (Lollipop) and version 4.4 (Kitkat).

I use android-x86-4.4-r5.iso for Kitkat and android-x86-5.1-rc.iso for Lollipop.

I have internet connectivity and I can use web browser for both android emulators, but I cannot download the APK files.

The status of the APK files at Download Folder always show Queued status and I waited for so long but there was no any APK file at that folder (Download folder), or there is no any response.

Besides, when I changed to the guest account, I cannot access the internet, it happens for Android x-86 OS and Remix OS.

In addition, in Remix OS I cannot impose the code into the Remix OS. Let says I wanna impose code into /etc/init.sh.

Please help me out. I would appreciate for your suggestions. Thanks in advance.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeedleGames:
Hi, I've asked this question on reddit but it seems like no one even saw my post - no comments, no up/down-votes.

I can't find anywhere three apps that do everything as I want.

1) A note syncing app. I want to be able to write something or take a picture and be able to see it on my watch. I sometimes need to glance at something so it would be perfect on a watch. The app should be like Google Keep but would let me zoom into photos (Keep doesn't) and wouldn't crop pictures on my round screen (Keep crops). The app's purpose doesn't necessarily have to be notes syncing but I should be able to do something like that.

2) Habits tracking app. Or app where you can reactivate to-do lists every day. It would be great if it also remembered how often I do the tasks. On my phone I used Loop Habits Tracker app but it doesn't work on wear.

3) Calorie counter for wear (like my fitness pal).

Please help me! Those three are the main things I want to do on my watch and I can't!
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeedleGames:
I just don't understand why no one responded. No suggestions, no replies saying 'they don't exist' or 'you could sideload <this> because it works perfectly". Nothing. Silence. Here and on reddit.

Especially if you could only get the 32gb version. I have the onpelus 3. Good device. How do you think the Pixel XL will be better? I think the camera is a big plus for it. Maybe faster software updates, although not sure how fast the updates were on the latest nexus devices.

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] borisb:
I pre ordered. But now I see the v20 on B&H with a tablet (as a gift) for 870. No taxes.

We are talking about $100 difference and you get a tablet that you can sell for another 100$.

The v20 has great sound, camera, screen and Nuget.

So at this point I don't know.

No HD Voice for the Pixel on AT&T is a big drawback for me. Just found out that AT&T won't activate that feature for off-carrier phones.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Birdsfan:
Dropped off my Note7 on Friday at the AT&T store, using an S7 Edge for now (so similar to the Note7 but not at the same time). Ordered the Pixel XL that same evening (Black/128) without a second thought. The only thing I will regret, aside from thinking the Note7 was the best looking phone but that ship has sailed, is Samsung Pay. I have been using it since getting the Note in August and I love it! I wish Google had purchased that company that patented MST technology....it's the shizzle!!
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] SysAdmNj:
This is pretty big as I'm on AT&T as well. Did you cancel yours.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] mgymnop:
I just canceled my Pixel XL 128 GB. T-mobile has an offer for the LG V20 for $550 after trade -in of my old phone. I get B&O headphones for free and even could get a tablet for free. For the pixel I would have paid almost 1,000 bucks and nothing on the Pixel would rectify that price difference. For 550 I can sacrifice some "features" like Google assistant etc.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] SysAdmNj:
You just tapped the card swiper or something like that? I think I tried it a year ago with the s6 but wasnt accurate at all for me.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] oRAirwolf:
I ordered the 32GB XL and I am a little worried that I didn't get enough storage, but I had a 32GB Nexus 6 previously and it wasn't a huge deal. I just need to be careful about deleting old TWRP backups and photos that have been backed up to Google Photos. I will only regret my purchase if the storage speed sucks, even though it has UFS 2.0. Google has been so terrible about storage performance, but the switch to UFS 2.0 should hopefully address that problem. As long as that's good to go, I will feel as though it was money well spent.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Birdsfan:
Samsung Pay has worked flawlessly for me, I use it almost everyday and most days multiple times. Grocery stores, WaWa's, gas stations, only place it didn't work is in a small waffles and ice cream store called Nina's. Great waffles but they use one of those attachments to an iPad and it didn't recognize the card.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Belimawr:
the only problem with Samsung pay is they were/are slow as hell at expanding it, they have been talking about it since the S6 for the UK and it still isn't out here, so coming from my Note 7 I won't miss it because Samsung never got round to actually bringing it to Europe unlike Android Pay, so really MST or not I would probably not even look at Samsung Pay now, for me atleast that shipped sailed a long time ago.

as for having second thoughts, since I had to return my Note 7 this is the only phone I can see as a replacement and I need something to get off the S3 that was the only phone I could scrounge to use while I waited for the network to actually sort out what it is doing (it still hasn't about 4 or 5 days after taking my phone off me, no surprise I am changing network)
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] chazall1:

Been using android pay on my N6P and it's a breeze,obviously needs to be supported by your bank etc but works great
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Birdsfan:
Yeah works great at the small number of merchants that accept NFC payment. I've been using Google's version for years, I still have a $20 Google gift card for using Google Wallet back in like 2011 or so. My point is Samsung Pay is far superior because of MST technology. I can use it everywhere a credit card is swiped regardless of whether there is an NFC pad or not.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] JasonJoel:
I tried Samsung Pay 3 or 4 times on my S7E I had. It worked exactly 0 times for me, so I stopped trying.

I think I must go to places with very finicky readers or something.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Rizz67:
well that is garbage. It uses the same bands. I use numbersync in my Urbane2.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Birdsfan:
Occasionally I get a "card could not be read" message but then I reswipe and it goes through. I have had great success with using it, you should try it again. Also I found watching the Samsung Pay tutorial helpful as I wasn't "swiping" my phone which helps the reader pick up the information.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amnd.gbrl:

so I screwed because I am from another country and imported the device. anyway thanks for the reply.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RazorMC:
First thing I would do in this case is flash stock ROM to see if that works as long as the device can go into download mode.

Perhaps you wiped the internal storage (media) and erased the OS itself.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamidrezatata:
Hi

i can go to downloading mode and flash custom recovery(TWPR) but i cant open it!!

this stay on first page of TWPR recovery project.

I don`t have a time to go to Samsung Service Centre:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::(:(
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RazorMC:
Hamid, if you can reach download mode, then flash stock ROM with Odin, don't flash anything else.

First priority should be to get the device working again and then flash custom recovery/kernel/rom.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamidrezatata:
witch kernel bro?
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RazorMC:
Stock ROM will get stock kernel.

[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charliebigpot:
First some background:

I've been doing a lot of reading on the Z5C since I'm torn between buying the Z5C or the X Compact. Here in Sweden the phones basically cost the same (the XC is 30 dollars more expensive) so the price is not the issue, but I'm still leaning towards the Z5C since it's waterproof, has the 4k and has mods.

To my question:

The downsides of the Z5c that I read about are that 1) battery isn't great 2) it gets hot 3) photos can be blurred on the edges -> can these issues be eliminated/minimized by rooting and using current camera mods?
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agnath18:
My answer is yes. But consider others opinion as well.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charliebigpot:
Thanks! Options like what? After battery and camera, size is the most important thing.

I had a z3c (loved it), it broke and I bought a Oneplus X which is 5" and it's already too big.. I can't really find any worthy alternative when looking at below 5" phones :(
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agnath18:
According to me 4.6 inch is the best screen size. It is the one of the main reason i opt to this cell. :)

Xperia X Compact has laser autofocus and new RGB-IR sensor whicn is quite awesome.. but the ugly thing is that it does not have 4K recording and water resistance. So if 4K and Water-resistantance is not your concern. For that price i recommend you to pick X Compact.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charliebigpot:
I forgot, root with DRM patch/workaround is almost the most important thing of all.. might be months before we get that on the X.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agnath18:
Well that's a good point! Now it's up to you. X Or Z :silly: :laugh:
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donthomaso:
z5c has crap mic, same on my friends phone.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charliebigpot:
ok, but what about the issues I wrote about above? :D
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ninestarkoko:
No, these problems cannot be solved with mods.

1) it gets hot rarely in normal use, but if you use heavy games it could become REALLY hot. It's Snapdragon 810 no way around it. Either you decrease CPU power (as the thermal engine does) or you keep it hot in these occasions.

2) As you know, water resistance isn't really there until you test it in realworld conditions. There's at least one story (and many in the Z3 line) about water damaged Z5 line phones. So I would not consider it a great advantage of the Z5 line over the X line, but it's just my opinion.

3) Battery (particularly, idle battery drain) got a big improvement with MM 6.0.1. You can probably reach 1,5 days with normal use.

4) margin blur is there on my device, but it is not serious and i can see it only if i focus on that. Other users had serious blur issues. I don't know any kind of mod that can solve this problem, as it seems hw related. I might be wrong, though.

4) for that price i would buy Xperia X compact, especially for the +1 GB of RAM

If you mind root and warranty, however, i must remember to you that root exploit for TA partition backup was gained after 7 months, by a developer from the Z3 scene that was kind enough to work on it after receiving the exploit skeleton from another member of xda. I have no idea about the Xperia X scene here on xda, but you have a little chance of not seeing a working root exploit ever or for many months if no developer with hacking skills appears on the scene. I'm speaking about this considering the X line like the previous Z5 line, in terms of bootloader, TA partition and Sony warranty management.

[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] javiwankenobi:
TL;DR: Nexus 9 bootloops with every ROM other than stock.

My Nexus 9 will bootloop whenever any custom ROM is installed on it. I follow the usual steps in TWRP (downloading ROM and Gapps, wiping factory reset, flashing the zips and wipe dalvik/cache) will not get any error during installation and regardless of the ROM, I will get my nexus stuck on Google logo. Then I will have to unroot and install stock again and it'll work.

Ive also tried Wugfresh Nexus Root Toolkit and it won't work either. As long as Im on stock, I can root as well and everything is fine.

Any idea what could be happening? I wanna get rid of the damn lag. Have tried Cyanogenmod, Slimrom6 and Pure Nexus Project. All with their recommended gapps and will always end up with my tablet stuck in the Google logo.

Any help is very appreciated.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the.teejster:
Sounds like you are doing everything right..

How long are you waiting for the device to start up ? Is it possible you aren't simply waiting long enough ? I'd give it a good 10 - 20 minutes on 1st boot before deciding it's hung in a boot loop.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stormy07:
I am having the exact same problem. I have tried so many roms that install correctly and then when flashing gapps and rebooting it is stuck on the Google logo. And I left my tablet on for a few hours so its definitely bootlooping.

bootloader flashing process: enough to "fastboot flash bootloader boot*.img"?

Or do i have to do more like described here (Steps 8-9)?

Your help is appreciated, thanks again!

ps: for others who got stuck in the bootloop and don't know how to stop it or turn off the device:

Still not booting...

Thanks for clarifying that. Unfortunately i still can't boot into AOSP_flounder_11-18-2016.zip

which i flashed afterwards. The bootloader is shown correctly though. But when i start the

Nexus 9 the message https://g.co/ABH is shown in red.

Which rom are you running? A CM build or AOSP?

ps: trying with cm-14.1-20161027-UNOFFICIAL-flounder.zip now, but boot seems to hang too and the upper part

of the Nexus 9 is getting really warm. I will leave it for 15 more minutes to wait and see what happens.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maelfilk:
Hmm sorry i don't knwo why this is happening.

Currently i reverted back to marshmallow roms, i find them more stable.

Do you have twrp? After flashing bootloader i go to twrp and do complete wipe and format data, then flash new rom. I had no problems booting.

Sure, the latest from TWRP

twrp-3.0.2-1-flounder.img	13M	2016-08-24 16:30:03 EDT

I will try it again - exactly as you describe it. Maybe i missed a step.

How long did you wait after reboot for the system to start up?

About 10-15 minutes

It works now!

Thank you maelfilk, i got i running now.

CM boots properly now - though i cannot configure it. During the Setup process

in the first step of selecting the language it crashes. I am sure this will be fixed

with a later version of CM-14.1.

Does someone know any other source for CM-14.1 for flounder?

Meanwhile i will try AOSP again.

Edit: AOSP boots properly but unfortunately WLAN does not work in the AOSP_flounder_11-18-2016.zip build.

I guess this is why you stick to the 6.x builds maelfilk.

[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maelfilk:
That's strange, i never had such a problem... Maybe you could try to flash using Nexus Root Toolkit, it'll basically do everything for you.

What rom did you have when you flashed vendor? If you already flashed marshmallow rom, you should flash the appropriate vendor.

No, i flashed AOSP as recommended here: http://xdaforums.com/nexus-9/development/rom-aosp-7-1-0r4-t3489154

Anyways, before wasting your time i will try to figure out what went wrong where.

Is it really that cold at your place right now? -19°C in Novosibirsk?
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maelfilk:
Then everything should work... This is the first nougat rom i flashed with the following steps:

1. flash bootloader in fastboot (when coming from 6.x rom), reboot bootloader

2. full wipe and format data in twrp, reboot twrp (maybe not necessary)

3. flash vendor in twrp

4. flash rom and gapps

5. reboot

I've done dozens of times and everything works for me:confused: try flashing fire-ice kernel otherwise Nexus Root Toolkit can save you i guess

It's actually -22°C now :)
