[Alcatel Idol 4S Questions & Answers] kireflow90:
I'm looking into getting an Idol 4 as an upgrade. I currently have a Samsung Galaxy Light which is just a terrible phone all around lol. This phone spec wise seems like a great deal for the price (currently 149.99). But I don't like buying things without reviews and this phone has almost none. So since some of you have it I was hoping I could get some feedback on how it is. I generally use mine for light gaming, lots of video streaming, social networking and lots of texting, and some web browsing. I wouldn't mind getting into taking more pictures as well since the kids are starting to get bigger. Anything you have to say would be greatly appreciated. Just remember I'm interested in the Idol 4 not the S variant. Thank you in advance!

PS: MODS if this is the wrong spot I apologize, and please move.

Honestly this phone is really awesome all around. Gaming is very descent but one thing that I absolutely love about this phone is the sound quality. Literally it is in Surround sound. Only gripe is some of the picture quality and heat using the VR. Other then that it is super fast with great battery life. I went from a Samsung galaxy edge 7 to Alcatel Idol 4 and don't regret it one bit. Just wishing the root was out to make this phone better.
[Alcatel Idol 4S Questions & Answers] ms262c:
I came from a G3. The G3 was accused of quickly becoming warm, due to the high resolution display but this phone, to me, becomes warm under less stress. Generally a reboot helps ease the struggles and it cools down for the day. My brightness is almost always at less than 50% but my battery life is about an hour of SOT less, I consistently notice that I now have 2gb of RAM and not 3. I can clear all my apps, open chrome with 4 tabs, exit to the home screen and reopen chrome to see it's reloading the entire app. When using Google maps or Waze, it takes about a full second for my touch to register in the app but on screen keys are unaffected. My apps are minimal, not even Facebook but I use Facebook messenger lite, no widgets or abnormal background apps, so I don't feel I'm pushing the device too far.

I list all of these but I honestly feel they're software issues. I've replaced the stock launcher and noticed a huge difference. The biggest selling points are the amazing speakers, solid build quality but invest in tempered glass protector, extremely capable camera, VR headset and near stock. You can disable quite a bit of added and unneeded software and that helps. Once root is achieved I think some simple tweaks will unleash its true abilities but I think I would go with the honor 5x or wait for the 6x. 5x already has a community behind it and I miss rooting.

Are your sure you have the 3gb RAM version and not the 2? I ordered mine from the UK to get the 3gb version. I have no idea where your located, on mobile.

OP, tours sounds like a perfect device for your use. Same reason i bought one for my wife.
[Alcatel Idol 4S Questions & Answers] kireflow90:
Like I said I have the galaxy light. Dual core processor, 8 gigs of onboard storage before the ROM, and only one gig of ram. Ha when I use maps it takes 5 minutes just for the app to open so a second to register won't be a problem. I always use Google now launcher which seems to improve speed most of the time.
[Alcatel Idol 4S Questions & Answers] kireflow90:
Also it sounds like you have the idol 4S not just the idol 4?
[Alcatel Idol 4S Questions & Answers] kireflow90:
Thanks for the reply you guys. I've decided I'm going to get the idol 4 because of cost, MM, and now root
[Alcatel Idol 4S Questions & Answers] murigny64:
beware, the cricket variant can't be root (you can't flash twrp) at this time.
[Alcatel Idol 4S Questions & Answers] kireflow90:
I did see that. There is hope though since its still a newish phone. Cricket keeps dropping the price on it so that may lure people in with the specs it has.
[Alcatel Idol 4S Questions & Answers] roadrun777:
There is a lot of dis-information regarding the variants of this phone. A lot of people are saying its wonderful but a lot of posts from people using different versions of it.

That and I noticed that they plan to muddy it even more with a 'mini' version and a 'pro' version.

So it gets even more confusing. The cricket version may or may not have 2gb, but its supposed to have 3gb. The cricket version also has an older Snapdragon 617 which according to the mfg wasn't even used in this phone.

You know what I am thinking? this is a re-balled idol 3.

Correct me if my suspicion is wrong.
[Alcatel Idol 4S Questions & Answers] kireflow90:
I'm not sure on the specs of the idol 3 so I cannot comment on that. I'm getting mine tomorrow from cricket so I will be able to give exact specs of the phone.

[Alcatel Idol 4S Questions & Answers] KeithE:
I have the Cricket variant of the Alcatel Idol 4. It is the 6055U, which is the 2GB version. I really like the phone with the exception of the vibrate motor. I find it to be very weak. I can't even feel the vibration when the phone is in my front pocket and a call is coming in.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheDaddyCat:
OK so I just got a note 4 the sm-n910c and I seem to have data pic messaging call and text however every now and again more often then not I have to return sending an SMS? Is there a way to fix this? I currently am on a custom ROM thinking it would help fix it and sure enough it did not. I'm curious if there is a radio I can flash or something along those lines that will fix this issue? Any help would be fantastic thanks in advanced!

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michel090428:
Try InversionUI layer it is close to this.

You cannot completely theme the Xperia systemUI like in CM unless you use layers.

you can try to use LPThemer xposed module in order to change the colors of SystemUI and QS according to your choice.

Tried to use my serial to register the phone and it's saying that it's not an HTC branded phone. It's a HTC Touch (CDMA) on Bell network here in Canada. Isn't that still considered HTC branded?
[Touch CDMA General] AraqirG:
Its only HTC branded if it doesn't say Bell anywhere on the phone....my guess is yours says Bell somewhere. Also, its determined by the first 3 characters of your serial number (can't remember what it has to start with, sorry).
[Touch CDMA General] 510jungleboy:
I got mine Registered after a few tries. I don't remember how i did it though. I'll research and give some more info and post it here.

Edited: Oh...you talking about registering the Touc? , i can't either. ehehh I thought you was talking about registering for e-club. My bad
[Touch CDMA General] fb401:
Please do because my boss has the Sprint Touch and can't sign up. I couldn't sign up for my Tilt and I couldn't for my 8525 or my 8125 either. Their rules are it has to be carrier unbranded so I assumed that we were just going to have to leave it alone.
[Touch CDMA General] sevsev:
So I guess if it's locked to a carrier at all no dice? That sucks, I don't think my carrier offers software upgrades

I have a Moto X with unlocked bootloader and Super SU root. I have just installed MagiskManager and after a reboot, the touch screen no longer responds to any finger inputs. Is there any way to unbrick the phone?

I'm in the beta test group, but it seems (I haven't uninstalled and tested without it) that Watchmaker is causing massive slowdown issues recently. Getting a lot of "android wear is not responding" messages and the watch is almost unusable. Anyone else having this issue?

I'm on stock, unrooted.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g17123:
The Question:

Has anyone managed to crack a bootloader that requires unlock bin before or have they generated a unlock bin using special programs?

My phone:

-lg stylus 2 plus model k557

-has an octocore by qualcomm

-android 6.0.1

Why i asked this question:

Yesterday I decided to try to unlock the bootloader (so i could root and trwp it) for my lg k557 only to find out that it needs a unlock bin. I then became confused and wondered "why does k557 requires boot key but the k550 version does not?" I searched on google and found a website dedicated to lg devs that had a bootloader key generator, only to find out that "LG only allows A couple of their phones to be unlocked" and mine was not one of them. :mad:

[Xiaomi Mi 4C] ykcorse:
Hi,

Couple of weeks ago my phone went into the WC, and even though I took it back in less than a second, it is not working now, after two weeks living in a box of rice.

Now it restarts every 4 seconds, as if the on/off button was stucked. At least phisically it is not, since I can press it normally.

I have read half internet looking for ideas. Fastboot works for 4 seconds, and I have flashed recovery, boot and cache from a fastboot rom, but no luck. There is not enough time to flash system.img. I have also tried flashing a rom with mi flash, but it always reboots before finishing the process.

I disconnect the battery to keep the phone from draining it, since I can't shut it down.

Any help would be really appreciated.

Thanks!

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salespalace:
After having this phone for more than a year now, i can say it's not the best phone I've had. 2 main issues are :

1 - Ram management is awful. I open 3 tabs on chrome, then open youtube, then open es file explorer, then i return to chrome and the page refreshes. This should not be happening. Is there anything i can do to fix this?

2- speed of reading on my microsd is slow on this phone and on this phone only. Its like theres something reducing the speed. I've got a sandisk ultra microsdxc 128gb, its writing speed is fine. But the reading speed is come and go. Some times its ok. Some times ita soo slow i cant watch a video on the card. It works fine when directly inserted on other devices.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sean89us:
1. We can only hope the RAM management is better on the nougat rom

2. I'd try another card. If that one does it too your MicroSD slot may be on the fritz, my MXPE with a 64GB SiliconPower UHS 1 (U3) transfers ridiculously fast. like 80MB/s
