[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] keithfrombm:
I ran an iPhone last week for a week (6s+), just to see how I'd like it: meh. Even with Android being locked down like our Note 4, it natively does more than iOS. And I'm not charged a fortune for every single app. I ran Spiderman 2, Real Racing 3, and Dead Trigger 2 for a week on both. If you set the graphics to high on Android, looked just as nice. After initial loading, load times were identical enough to be inconsequential. And iPhone has no S Pen. I'm also testing out an s7 Edge, which has no S Pen but has Samsung Pay which I've used A LOT. Still, death of Note 7 removes my next choice. So now, I'm stuck debating whether the Note 5 would suffice, or Axon 7, or v20.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] boofman:
If only another manufacturer offered S-Pen functionality and accuracy..

Note 5 isn't much of an upgrade as compared to our Note 4, and the Note 7 has been discontinued..also I've heard Android N for Sammy is more locked down than M, so I'm not sure if the Note 8 (or whatever the next Gen Note is) can ever be rooted..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] willyyumm27:
See me personally, I don't mind not being able to control my device but I have been pretty loyal to samsung all the way back since the s3 and I just find that my battery life and other things are really bad. I wanted to switch just to see how things would be.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] GoldCartridgeGamer:
My first smartphone was an iPhone 3G then I had an iPhone 4. After that I switched to Android. I have enjoyed my Android phones way more. I had a S3 then got the Note 4. I am not unhappy with my Note 4, just wish I could root. Rest of device I have no complaints. My next phone was going to be a Note 7, but now I will just wait till next year. Nothing currently peaks my interest enough to spend $800 or more on a cell phone. I have some interest in the Pixel XL and Galaxy S7 Edge, but not enough to get one. My brother and dad have iPhone's. They work for them, but even with all the changes since iPhone 4, it is not enough for me to come back. I like having control of my device. Also, I would never get an iPhone 7 or any future iOS Devices since no headphone jack.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] willyyumm27:
If anyone wants when I get my iphone to let them know how it's working for me let me know.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] TJTITAN:
After reading that news and still two years on waiting for the Note4 to be unlocked(which will never happen), I am going to leave Samsung and switch to Sony. The idevices can kiss my ass, never going to back IOS
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] BereanPK:
If Samsung sells it en masse on contract to the US government, it'll never be rooted. Hopefilly after the Note 7 fiasco (especially with Samsung trying to rush it out ahead of iPhone 7 without fully testing), the government will avoid Note 8, hence increased likelihood of root.

By kid & my wife both wanted iPhones, but I can't bring myself to using it... doesn't do as much as Android IMO. I'll keep running my Note 4 and wait for Samsung to live down this boo-boo and come up with Note 8 that won't blow up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] nuwayman:
I had a hard time trying to decide on what to move on with. Wanted note 7 originally but that's not happening. Wife has iPhone 6 but I'm not big iPhone fan. Love Android. Ended up with a nexus 6p. Half the cost and I can do what ever I want to it. Running 7.1.1 developer preview and it's great. This should do me fine till next year when new devices start coming out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Shanghai.Knight:
I had an iphone. Hated it. I do not work the way they want me to work. Let me design my own workflow. Apple ID losing money for the first time in 15 years. Other companies are innovating faster.

I've used lots of phones. LG had severe quality issues, and make sure you never have to get a replacement phone. I swore they just put broken phones back into boxes and mailed them to people as replacements. I got phones that were caked in mud. No kidding. Each replacement 3 or 4 of them was worse than the previous one.

HTC was good. As was Motorola.

But I just love my note 4. No reason to upgrade yet. It's been the perfect phone. I have Samsung TVs, tablets, etc. I like that everything works together. Samsung is innovating very well these days and is nipping on Apple's heals. I'll get the note 8 when it comes out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] kparikh82276:
As much as I want to switch from note line, I can't let go of the stylus functions. I love I can cut and past pictures and screen shot etc. Can't do that with any phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] boofman:
I'll be sticking with my Note 4..as a matter of fact, I'm planning on getting a used non-ATT Note 4 if I can get one for cheap, as I'm not that too impressed with the Note 5 and Note 7 has been pulled off, and I can't let go of the S-Pen Functionality.

I'm also looking at getting a Tab A with S-Pen as a work device, instead of getting a new Note phone if another one comes out..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] ajumatt:
My phone started behaving bad (random reboots, lags) despite factory reseting and downgrading firmware. I had to buy a new phone. I ended up buying a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge International (SM-G935F). I flashed the Australian (XSA) firmaware on it, and I am very pleased. The phone works wonderfully without any hiccups. It's fully supported through monthly firmware updates, and it has many additional features such as Samsung Pay. I don't even see a reason to root the phone yet. Everything is great, however I do miss the IR blaster and the S-Pen. I'm also scared to drop the phone (glass everywhere, very slippery) even with the Spigen Neo Hybrid case on it.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] d3m4rs4l:
hello to the whole community, I write about a problem I can not solve. check the forum but I see something that is like my problem.

I do not sign, I recognize the sim but I can not enter an APN and not let me change the preferred network. By typing * # * # 4636 # * # * there are two important things. 1 not let me change the network type, it is always "WCDMA preferred" and 2 the radio is turned off and can not light this is a catch.

the wifi works normally me. I'm s-off and SuperCID, I have TWRP recovery 2.7.0. I read in some comments that may be solved by installing another rom and intale the viperoneM8 6.1.0, which installed fine but I still have the same problem.

someone who can guide me?

and sorry for my English, it's horrible.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] nuke235:
Ill get right to the point, I'm on the latest FW 10e and whenever I try to enable bluetooth it clicks on and looks like its going to enable then doesnt.

The BT switch simply just turns itself off. No errors, nothing, just will not enable.

Just got my H850, booted up and on 10a FW out of the box.

First unlocked bootloader and flashed Modem/Bootloader/Boot to 10e versions and to latest Genesis rom

Still same issues.

Tried flashing back to stock 10d FW using KDZ and still having the issue.

Anyone have a fix for this or is this a HW issue?

I do not have a Sim card right now as I was waiting for AT&T to ship it..
[Desire 626 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ff2co4:
Ok, so im trying to root my phone ( HTC DESIRE 626S FAMILY MOBILE/T-MOBILE) and last night i got through rooting the phone with CyanogenMod, the problem is i didnt see the warning that the su was for 5.1, where as i had 6.0.1, so i redid the steps, unlocked the bootloader after i relocked it, flashed over CyanogenMod, but then im stuck, i tried to run adb devices and it doesnt find my phone, so i cant push over supersu v2.76, and i tried to go into recovery mode, and noticed that the CyanogenMod recovery screen isnt there, its like the stock ruu recovery but it doesnt do anything but go into a boot loop after that. i can power down the device and go back into download mode. so any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] justinxfan:
I have a Nexus6p that was been freshly wiped and flashed with stock Nougat running latest October build. I signed up for the Google Beta program and immediately got an OTA. I downloaded it and i pressed reboot and install. It said rebooting.... 10, 9 8 etc. When the countdown finished it just stuck at rebooting and nothing happens. I leave it for a minute and think it's going to reboot itself. When I come back after 2 minutes the phone still hasn't rebooted to install so I cleared all the apps from recent apps tray and I opened the update menu again. The update menu said your system is up to date. I checked the storage menu and the ota files were still on my phone because google play services was taking up 1.8gb. I rebooted the phone to recovery and cleared the cache. I also tried using apply update from sd card but it just said sdcard was invalid. I booted back up and the files deleted themselves, and the system update menu still said your system is up to date. I cleared play services data, and unenrolled and reinrolled. I have to redownload the OTA again which is a waste of time and internet. Any idea what happened?

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] DS O2 XDa:
Hi

I have an o2 XDAII that was bought from o2 on a contract.

The contract has ended. I want to use the XDA on PAY AS YOU GO for Internet Access only.

I've bought an o2 PAYG SIM card and they have confirmed that the SIM is GPRS enabled.

However, having followed all the correct connection settings, I can't get it to connect to the internet.

I have tried xdaunlock and it says that the phone appears to be unlocked already so that was no help.

I spoke to o2 and they said that the phone was 'designed' for contract only and there is no guarantee it will work on PAYG as it is 'locked' to a contract only setting.

If I check in MY XDA there is a box to tick for pre paid or post paid. PRE is what I want but I am unable to tick it. Only POST (ie contract) is available.

Anyone got any ideas how I can get around this or have I got a redundant XDA that won't work unless I keep my contract?

Cheers
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] tallchap:
Yes it works!

I have a Himalaya that's just been retired as I put my O2 contract SIM into a new Artemis.

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] wskelly:
Had anyone had the following issues:

1. With the radio app only, the app doesn't seem to allow another audio stream to play when it is playing. So, if you're listening to the radio and Waze wants to announce navigation, the radio mutes but the other stream doesn't play. Other apps that play audio, like Vanilla Music, will "duck" (reduce volume slightly) to allow Waze to announce.

2. Radio app will not release audio stream, period. So if you're playing the radio and you start another music app, the radio stream wins.

3. With my phone paired, I cannot hear any phone call audio when making a call. Not sure if the other person can hear me.

Edit 25-Sept-2016: The other person can hear me fine, but I cannot hear them. Tried both a Moto G w/ CM13 and a stock Nexus 4. Both behave the same.

A Bluetooth audio stream initiated on the phone WILL play via Joying. This issue only seems to affect phone calls.

I'm on JY1.90.

UPDATE 13-Jan-2017:

The Joying update from December 2016 fixes the radio not releasing the audio stream: https://www.carjoying.com/Joying-blog/42.html

The Bluetooth phonecall issue is solved. The problem was that I was using the wrong connector on my Jeep head unit. This issues stumps me a bit. The second connector is basically identical to the first connector, but it appears to only route the FL and FR speakers, leaving out the RL RR speaker wires completely. We know that the phone in Joying only works in the FL speaker, so somehow the Jeep amp must be using the rear speakers as inputs instead of the fronts? I don't know. But if I use the other connector (the one marked 'amp' in this photo), Bluetooth calling works.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] colostro:
1. I set my navigation app with TomTom and mixed function and works fine;

2. The same for me, but I have the same behaviour with music app

3. I didn't notice it

Inviato dal mio Redmi Note 3 utilizzando Tapatalk
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] wskelly:
1. Thanks, I will try a different navigation app. This is only a problem with the radio app. Mixed function works fine with Vanilla Music (open source music player)

2. If I am playing a mp3 app, and then start the radio app, the radio app wins (expected) but the odd thing is that the mp3 app (Vanilla Music) does not pause, the progress bar will continue to increase and it continues to play. It is like the radio app doesn't properly notify the system that it is playing.

If I am playing the radio app, then start a music player, radio still wins.

3. Might be my phone. I use CM13, but this phone worked fine with my stock Jeep HU and with my Ford with SYNC.

This will allow the Jio4Gvoice app to work on most custom ROMs, it isn't true VoLTE and you must go into developer settings and enable Cellular data always active or else you can't make and receive calls on WiFi. It will increase battery drain when connected to WiFi though.

There are a lot difference between using jio app and enbale volte on custom rom, volte doesn't work well on the app also the app doesn't woek if the data turned off
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
And maybe you should read any of the dozens of other threads here regarding Jio and VoLTE and custom ROMs... it doesn't work, it likely will never work, and we don't know how to make it work because for whatever reason, Moto did not use a standard implementation of VoLTE on this device. And only a few specific devices, the Indian and Brazil models I believe, even have support for it at all in the stock version.

If you think the developers here haven't been trying to make it work, your sadly mistaken. They have worked countless hours on it but there isn't really much more than can be done. The problem is the RIL (Radio Interface Layer) and the modems are proprietary by Moto, and the underlying communication to that layer needed to make VoLTE work require tight, specific integration that we don't have an understanding of because it isn't a "standard" implementation and is not documented. Without knowing how to access this layer and what instructions to send, we can't make VoLTE work on custom ROMs.

Maybe instead of of starting another new thread and asking for the same thing literally HUNDREDS of other people have asked for, you could switch to Linux, install Android Studio, Python, GNU Make, Git, and OpenJDK and start going through code and of a ROM and help figure it out?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] WrittenImprov:
I got my S7 Edge less than a week ago and am loving it so far. Prior to this phone, I had an LG G3 for over 2 years. One feature I miss from that phone is the ability to double tap the screen when it was asleep and wake it up as if I had pressed the power button. It's nice if the phone is sitting on the table and I just want to quickly wake it up to check my notifications. I even find myself trying to double tap the screen to wake it out of habit. I've seen a few solutions on the Play Store, but some of them ask for questionable permissions and I won't be free to play around with them for a while.

TL;DR - Do any of you have suggestions for a means to get double tap to wake on the S7? I'm rooted in case that makes a difference.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] nrage23:
Double tap to wake is implemented in the kernel, Samsung does not have it in the kernel. You cannot use a kernel that is not signed by Samsung so it is not going to happen.

[Magisk] stangri:
I've had magisk installed since version 6, I've published some magisk modules already and never had a problem until today.

After a full clean reinstall of Nougat NBD90Z (with wipe) on my Nexus 6 and then flashing Magisk, phh's superuser for magisk, installing phh's superuser apk from play store and magisk manager apk I stumbled upon a previously reported (without details) bug where magisk manager would refuse to install modules from repo claiming they are not magisk modules.

I've struggled trying everything I could including the full wipe (more details here: http://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/module-app-systemizer-t3477512/69230448#69230448) and bounced some ideas off [MENTION=4562612]pnwsr6[/MENTION] who's had the similar problem on Nexus 6 device.

I've achieved a partially working Magisk Manager (manual installs of ZIP files work, but installs from repo still fail) and here's the list of steps which lead to me having semi-working magisk manager again:

1. I flashed ZIP files of some modules in twrp (I'm attaching App Systemizer and Nexus 6 LED Enabler which I flashed)

2. After the phone booted up I saw the modules active and working

3. Within Magisk Manager I then added the ZIP file of the phh's superuser module from that thread (http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3893967&d=1475554052)

4. Now at least manual installation of modules within Magisk Manager are working fine.
