[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+] adamsdm87:
I cant figure out why my phone isn't turning on. it just keeps flashing the Samsung S6Edge+ Logo over and over.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+] SinusStudios:
you're stuck in a bootloop. this can happen because of rooting errors, crashes or corrupt memory.

to fix a bootloop, you need to provide more information about your phone:

is it rooted/custom ROM?

what did you do/change before the bootloop happened?

does the phone contain valueable data that can't be lost?

if no, did you try unlocking the bootloader and flashing a recovery and a new ROM?

i'm happy to help but with this little info it's not enough yet...

regards, daniel =)

Not quite sure at all the phone was given to me to see if i could get it working again. So no theres nothing valuable on it it could be toltallg wipe and new installed
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Amd4life:
some hate em, some like them for reference.

oddly, first few runs of Antutu (mainly testing my screen and processor for heat management), I get the following, no data, with 3D ad-on installed

1) 137K

2) reboot, 135K

3) second run, immediately after Run #2--stopped at 70%

4) reboot, 107K

5) reboot, 108K

I am not a benchmark specialist, but just starting a discussion. What scores are everyone else getting, as this seems pretty low
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] chipworkz:
I don't care much about benchmarks but just for a comparison, it seems Geekbench4 either doesn't like Nougat or it is more accurate, I am not sure. Using Geekbench this phone scores lower on Multi-Core than my Note5 which scored lower than my Note7.

V20 = Single-Core = 1615, Multi-Core = 3924

Note5 = Single-Core = 1410, Multi-Core = 4335

On Antutu, I get 145669 on this phone and I got 143906 on my Note7 so this phone scores higher.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] 2015Ducatimulti:
yeah I only did one run on mine ATT version see pic
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Amd4life:
Odd that the V20 stock (my best run 147K) runs better than the pixel XL with the 821 snapdragon and the upgraded 7.1 optimization (well assumed, that is vs 7.0)

LG has done a great job, for a stock device
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] dermotti:
There are two version of the 821 chipset. The ECO and the Performance version. The Pixel runs the ECO version (power savings) so its no faster than a snapdragon 820.

See your running proccesses in settings--developer options--running services and check for any running apps that you don't use then disable or uninstall those apps.

I also recommend you to install L Speed from Playstore to boost your device performance.

Good luck.

How to use Android Pay on the Honor 8​

Are you wondering where Android Pay is on the Honor 8? It doesn't come default on the phone but you can still get it and set it up easily. Here's what you need to do.

Download Android Pay from the Play store

Once you have the app installed, go to settings > More > NFC > Default paymeny app

Make sure Android Pay is set as the default.

Go through the regular setup process and sign in with your gmail account. Make sure NFC is turned on if you want to use the Tap-to-pay function. If you have any trouble getting it to work, leave a comment in this thread.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] chinmaysk:
Hello,

The wallpaper carousal in my unrooted Mi5 doesn't seem to work. The lock screen shows only the default, offline 8 wallpapers.

I also tried clearing the cache and data of the carousal app (also tried a restart after that). Any clue about how to fix this?
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] SpinoRex:
Which launcher do you use?
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] chinmaysk:
It's the default launcher provided by MiUi.

Btw, it's a bit stupid that I am answering my own question, but the issue was resolved when I got an OTA two days ago :) The version I have now is 8.0.5.0
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] SpinoRex:
Good to know it works now :)

I was asking about the launcher because when you have custom launcher set as default, Wallpaper Carousel cannot access wallpapers and symptoms are just how you described. Xiaomi says that this is "known error" :)
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] Atharkhan101:
Below feedback i wrote to Xiaomi

Changing wallpaper on Lockscreen is unique feature of Xiaomi but it's not working. I google lot on solution, still it is not working. Many users reported that the wallpaper is not changing on lockscreen. I tried both on default launcher and lightning launcher still not working. Did many troubleshooting like installed old versions, Autostart, no restrictions in battery saving, allowing all permissions etc still not working. My device is Redmi Note 4 rooted with Android 7.0 with MiUi 9.6.3.0.

[Asus ZenFone 3 Ultra Questions & Answers] bloodedemon:
I've been running the Zenfone 3 ultra for a week in US on AT&T. A few quetions ???

First off I've had this Phone (the 64gb, 652 model) running on AT&T in Illinois for about a week now. My Impressions are good for the most part. Screen is beautiful. Sound is amazing. Battery life is real good so far. Its fairly quick. I get good speeds, H and H+. But I also have some problems too. Maybe you guys can help me out a bit.

Texting is slow. Im sure its a setting but im not sure what. I've changed the APN to what I think it needs to be and took it to AT&T and had them check it over and it got about 50% better. But still not all the way there yet. Suggestions???

The thing tends to be somewhat of a ram hog. Would changing the Launcher help? Im not in love with ZenUI but i dont hate it either. Any way that you guys know how to trim it down a bit? I got 4gb of ram and it uses like 3 of that just sitting there. I can drop that to 2gb if i use there built in task killer. Any way to make this better? Is there a list of apps i should uninstall or disable?

Im not really sure about the Asus mobile manager app. I hear that task killers are actually harmful over all. Is that true? Should I disable it? Its actually baked into the rom so that when you kill all open apps it runs the task killer function.

With all this screen realestate it sure seems to do the bare mini um of multitasking. any way to fix this? A new launcher perhaps or a multi-window app?

Is there a way to root this yet and put a rom on it?

Thank you for all help you can give!

I am on Cricket (using AT&T towers) and tried an Asian release phablet last year. The only problem I had was with MMS texts... Could not deal with not getting some and especially pictures... So do you have those problems with texts, too? Thanks for your time!
[Asus ZenFone 3 Ultra Questions & Answers] bloodedemon:
Nope. no problem.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Ultra Questions & Answers] doctahjeph:
How slow are your text? I receive mine tomorrow, I will be using on AT&T also.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Ultra Questions & Answers] doctahjeph:
Okay just got the phone. I plug my SIM in and it read it automatically and set my phone on the "Phone" apn settings. Everything was working,but MMS was super slow. I went ahead and mmanually inputted the "AT&T Nextgenphone" apn settings, rebooted, and now it seems everything works perfectly now.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Ultra Questions & Answers] VillaRegina:
I am on Cricket - do you have the best MMS performance APN for Cricket by any chance? I would buy this phone tomorrow (if the MiMIX is unattainable) tomorrow if I could be sure that I wouldn't have MMS problems...
[Asus ZenFone 3 Ultra Questions & Answers] doctahjeph:
no I don't sorry. My issues came back, but I found that my issues were with AT&T and not my phone. At my house I get crappy service with data and mms. If I go to my moms house my data and MMS are just fine.

So your issues maybe with the towers by your house. AT my house I get perfect LTE, but it seems ****ty HSPA+.

[Asus ZenFone 3 Ultra Questions & Answers] VillaRegina:
Hello, all! I switched over to MetroPCS last night! Most of the people I get texts from are switching so I thought that it might be a good idea for all of us to be on the same carrier as far as MMS service goes... Anyone on MetroPCS?
[Asus ZenFone 3 Ultra Questions & Answers] VillaRegina:
What ads? Does the phone come with ads that you cannot just Uninstall?

Im on at&t. I my mms is fine. gets a touch slow when sending pics. otherwise its good.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Ultra Questions & Answers] bloodedemon:
I have no ads.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Ultra Questions & Answers] doctahjeph:
I found out the issue is with the towers near my side of the city. I get slow to nonexistent MMS and even though it shows full on HSPA+ signal there is no Data to the phone either. If I travel away from my towers to a new set everything works just fine.

Yeah, it won't work although it is a GPS booster. I use the same make with my tomtom. It would only help plugging it into a GPS receiver that in turn is connected to the TyTn by cable or bluetooth - not as they show it directly to the Hermes.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muhib471:
I wonder if there is a way to play a HEVC encoded video smoothly.

I have tried a several players like mx , vlc, bs player etc. I also tried to play with setting dorimanx "high performance" profile. But nothing made the video playback smooth. It keeps stuttering.

I know that SD800 doesn't support hevc officially. But there gotta be a way.

Plz suggest me something..
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaneel1491:
Android 6+ has hw playback of HEVC, you can play it with MX player on HW decoding, it's smooth and doesn't heat up like SW on 5.0.2
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muhib471:
Oh really!

Will try that :) thanks
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarshisnotMellow:
In Mx player pro, select SW decoder for video instead of HW after you play a HEVC video, it will run smooth. also check if your device requires a custom codec like neon.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaneel1491:
SW is CPU intensive, HW and HW+ is what you should be aiming for.

Anyways on Nougat I watched an HEVC encoded movie and got 1% drain every 6 mins, it's that's pretty good! So like 16% battery used for a full movie.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muhib471:
Trust me, I tried all the possible ways. The culprit is 5.0.2

Yeah man, now I am running Ressurrection. Which is good too.

But the game-play becomes laggy sometime. Do you know any solution?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarshisnotMellow:
For me its other way around though. Every video/movie i watched on it worked smoother on SW decoder, whereas on HW decoder, some files didnt even show the video. Tried those same videos on SW decoder and worked without any stutter.

The only thing better i feel with HW decoder is it shows better quality than SW but stuttering playback, on SW, feels like slightly soft brushed version of that file but smoother.

Btw these experiences were in kitkat 4.4. for the G2. but even on my other devices i experience same thing, its always smoother on SW.

[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Mobb_Deep73:
Long story short for my Samsung Galaxy A3 SM-310F:

1. Installed TWRP recovery

2. Rooted my phone

** phone worked perfectly **

3. After a while the phone didn't charge when it was or got recognized by Odin (first it would charge when I first rebooted it)

4. Wanted to upgrade from Android 5 to 6 so I could flash fallen a3angel rom and try fix the charging issue

5. Downloaded original Android 6 firmware

6. Tried to flash it with TWRP did not work**

7. Decided to make the phone stock again

8. Downloaded original Android 5 firmware

9. Tried to flash it with TWRP did not work**

10. Decided to install stock recovery and unroot the phone

11. Extracted recovery.img from the original Android 5 firmware

12. Installed flashify and flashed the original recovery.img

13. Did not saw the message "dm-verity verification failed" in the original recovery

13. Deleted all the data and rebooted the phone

** "Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found" and "Could not find 'META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary' in the zip file". "Error installing zip file". "Failed".

So now I've got a phone that not get recognized by Odin, with the stock recovery with the message "dm-verity verification failed" and no root. None of the options in the recovery menu work except for the reboot function :').

I guess the plus side is that it still boots and works and I can charge it when its off 8-). I suspect that the USB port is broken and I want to return it for warranty. But everywhere the phone says it's been customized and it's not original anymore.

Is there anything left I could try?
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] ashyx:
You can't flash stock firmware with twrp or any other recovery.

You need ODIN, Heimdall or you can use Flashfire if you have root.

However flashfire cannot flash bootloaders.

You could flash the stock lollipop firmware with FLASHFIRE and then take the OTA to MM.

Unfortunately this means you will lose root and won't be able to reroot. So no custom recovery either unless you use Flashfire to flash the OTA.

I suggest you repair your USB port.

It should be a simple repair as they are usually a separate pcb that can be swapped.

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] SaurabhAnand:

Put the SD card into your laptop/desktop or card reader > Connect Pixel XL to laptop/desktop via the supplied USB-C to USB-A cable > Drag or copy and paste music to whichever directory on the Pixel XL you want.

The contacts will sync from your Google account assuming that is where you store them. Failing that there is a step in the setup process to connect your old phone to the Pixel XL that will copy contacts and messages etc but I don't believe it copies music.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] sos_sifou:
I have the Tab A 9.7 version I can report the following :

Screen : is the most important thing on a mobile device, the resolution is extremely low with a weak 768 x 1024 pixels (~132 ppi pixel density), text will look ok when viewing a zoomed web page, at normal zoom, text will look grainy, picture quality is great and brightness is more than enough for any situation, if you watch videos or view pictures it's a fairly good screen, except for small text, there is no light bleeding on this panel (nexus 9 has a catastrophic light bleeding screen). You can check this post (mine) for more information about screen quality http://xdaforums.com/gala...5#post69214905

Performance : is fairly good, everything works well and the UI is snappy, high quality videos (1080p mkv) works great, large pdf files are handled with ease, webpages are displayed instantly, there is no problem with performance on this tablet, light gaming is possible

Battery life : with airplane mode on about 13:00 hours screen on time of mixed continus use (youtube, light gaming, reading...) or about 10:00 hours SOT with 3g enabled

Build quality : is very good

Phone calls : works great over H+ or gsm (available in my country) signal strength is better than my note2

Wifi : much much better and more stable than my note2 (which is/or was a great phone)

Hope this helps deciding what to get, A 10.1 or 9.7
