[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaron74:
Hey xda, I've researched this on and off and could never find a solution or definite answer.

I've been thinking of doing away with Windows instead of dual booting.

Edit. I should state I'm using Linux, specifically Ubuntu mate.

So my question is: Is there a reliable way to flash stock firmware, specifically on the note 4?

Either by heimdal, or Odin in a VM?

I've tried Odin on vm before couldn't get phone recognized. And can't trust the answers I've found about heimdal, being safe or not. So if someone with some experience and a confirmed solution could help, please.

My primary concern is for the safety of the phone, so if Windows&Odin are the safest, or if other options are risky then please let me know.

Thank you all on xda for all that I've learned here!

I would also like to know the answer to this question. My desktop is an iMac. I have a couple of laptops that are dual boot Win 7/Linux. I too, would like to get rid of all my Windoze machines, if I can find a reliable way to flash ROMS. I hardly ever boot into Windows anymore. Thanks to anyone who can enlighten us.

Please anyone know where I can find the complete firmware of Rom Stock 7.0 Indian 25_93-14?
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] :
It doesn't exist outside Motorola yet. You have to flash the first Nougat official update via Fastboot and then only shall you be able to update via ADB or Recovery to the latest version.

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] reef2009:
Hi guys,

I have a strange issue.

My router doesn't accept my girlfriends phone.

It's a Lenovo Moto G4 Plus with stock firmware Android 6.0.1

The problem is the device name "Google(Android)" without the quotes. The problem is the "(" & ")" characters.

Is there an option to change the device name without rooting the phone?
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] strongst:
No, without rooting not. What router do you have? And what wifi security are you running? Which method did you use to bind the mobile to your router? Try adding the mac address of the gf mobile to the routers Mac table if you have mac security enabled.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Mirzar1:
HI everyone im new to this forum and i hope u all will help me here.

as you know that in htc m8 verizon ( this one i have ) have a very irritating feature and thats about the lock screen when you lock the screen and if someone ( kid, frnd or anyone ) just tried 10 attempts to unlock the screen lock it will erase all of data i.e. the phone will factory reset...

MY QUESTION IS :

IF I INSTALL A CUSTOM ROM LIKE ANDROID REVOLUTION HD FOR M8 OR ANYOTHER, WILL THIS THING ALSO HAPPEN THERE ? WILL THE LOCK SCREEN AGAIN SHOW THE 10 ATTEMPTS TO FACTORY RESET THING? OR I WILL BE ABLE TO GET RID OF THAT ANNOYING FEATURE.

PLEASE HELP ME GUYS.

thanks in advance :):)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] HypostaticOnion:
I think you can get rid of it by changing something in the default XML. I searched on Google and found what I needed to do to disable it. It's literally one line you change from true to false.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Mirzar1:
Yeah i have heard that trick but i also see people saying that after a reboot everything set to the default state...

Anyother option? Or any other third party best screen lock app that do not use a lot of battery?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] HypostaticOnion:
If you flash another ROM you shouldn't have that issue. I think it was enabled on Viper, but using the trick disabled the wipe messages for me. Make sure you make a nandroid backup and do a full wipe before you install any custom ROM though as a "dirty flash" could introduce issues.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Mirzar1:
Hmmm okay

Thanks buddy !
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Mirzar1:
Hey listen bro,

What if convert my htc m8 verizon software to google play edition ?

Will this solve the screen lock issue of 10 attempts data erase ?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] HypostaticOnion:
You can't convert it, but you could flash the ROM for sure. I'm running it right now and it's not done the lock screen thing to me and I'm using a pattern.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Mirzar1:
Hmmmm........

Okay thanks buddy :)

thanks for help in advance
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] 1chrome:
Submit a log (since it's gaming related I doubt if a Dev will consider it, however) or go back to stock ROM.

You cannot compare a stock ROM to a custom ROM. There will be many differences, highs and lows in a lot of areas.

Its like comparing an original Royal Enfield bike to a custom designed motorcycle. Those are two different things so you cannot expect things to work the same way. For better or worse.

Just got the new shield tv box and my wifi speeds are incredibly slow. Get 100 mbps on all my other devices, but 5 mbps.

Anyone know of a solution?
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] layercake87:
i have exactly the same problem on 2.4ghz wifi. i even put the router right next to the shield tv. still only 6-10mbit (max. 15mbit) while i have a 100mbit connection from my provider. on the 5ghz wifi i get about 60mbits but on both i have huuuuuuuuge packet loss every 3-7s. makes gamestream impossible :/

i even bought a new router. tried with my standard fritzbox 7390 and now with a new linksys wrt1200ac. results are the same slow and bad connections to shield. everything else (i.e. notebook, smartphone, pc) works just fine...
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drilus:
Unplug any peripherals connected via usb and try again. This means wireless mouse, usb hub, etc.

I've found the only way to get consistent speeds with the shields wifi is to use a usb hub that has it's own power source.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alcolawl:
Can confirm. Having an extremely hard time streaming anything in 4K on Netflix. 350 mbps Download and 30 mbps Upload. Netflix network speed test shows like 29 mbps... I installed a browser and went to Fast.com and get about 80 mbps. Downloaded the "Fast" app on my Pixel XL and immediately got 250 mbps down standing in the same room connected to the same 5 GHz Wireless-AC network. Amazon Prime eventually decides to stream in UHD and HDR, but it takes a while. Youtube, oddly enough, streams in 4K almost immediately.

Router is an ASUS RT-AC1900P.

I'm having the exact same issue with my new 2017 Shield. If I restart the Shield, it will occasionally work at full speed on 2.4 OR 5 Ghz. But most of the time, it's under 10 mbps - transferring from the internet OR from my PC that is hardwired to my router. I already had an RMA done, and I'm having the same issue with the new Shield NVIDIA sent me. I've tried every channel possible, used tools to find the proper channel, etc. Same slow speed. None of my other devices have the same issue, even in the same location. Nothing is attached via USB.

What's the deal? Any solutions?

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] saltorio:
I've noticed that my Pixel's available storage seems to shift drastically between what's available after a few day's use and what's available after I've rebooted, which I don't understand.

Having quite a number of large Daydream VR apps, my 32 GB of storage is getting full. After a few days of use, my Pixel will report "not enough storage" when performing routine Google Play app updates. I've cleared the cache via Settings > Storage > Cached data, but that may only free up a bit more than 1 GB most of the time (see image 1). However after I reboot my phone, I suddenly have 6 GB free (see image 2) that has disappeared from the Other category.

Why does this happen, and is rebooting the only way to get this space back?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] 32BitWhore:
Maybe a rogue app? Check your Settings -> Apps and see if you have one that is using several GBs of storage that it shouldn't be before you reboot next time. Really weird that you've got 6 GB of "other" before the reboot and < 1 GB afterwards. Not an issue I'm having so I don't have a clue.

New Dialer Discoveries...

Few Discoveries:

Add a battery indicator to the dialer:

HKLM\Software\HTC\Phone\bShowBatteryIcon

edit this to

"1".

opens up additional menu in the dialer.

HKLM\Software\HTC\Phone\NikeOptionOnOff

Set this to "1"

Change the Dialer completly to regular one:

HKLM\Software\HTC\Phone\SmartDialingOnOff

Set this to "1"

I guess this fits to the owners of HTC Nike as well.

I tried the cab on my Wizard and it wouldn't install. Tried dropping the files directly in \Windows and doing the reg entries from the RGU but didn't appear to work and phone got really slow. Wound up doing a hard reset to clear it out (probably could have deleted the files and regentries but I didn't do a backup since I just use that phone for testing right now).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] mfrazzz:
On my Tilt, if I open the keyboard, the dialer comes up just fine in Landscape, but there is no keypad. Instead you use the keypad on the keyboard (don't have to hit function or anyting it appears, just start dialing). Since I'm on a Tilt, I don't have video call capability anyway, so can't comment on that, but I doubt it works as has been stated.

Trouble w/OEM package

Hi Dutty,

For somewhat reason ALex Kitchen (buildos+packagetools2.7) doesn't regconize your OEM package at all. Then I tried to build the alternative OEM package base on Navdavi's cab by using "OEM package tutorial", now Alex Kitchen "see" the alternative one; however, I get "Double package or .DSM found!!! copy only from Packages Folder" when I build.

Any ideal? TIA.

Some issues I noticed with the dialer.

1) When I click on call history, the top NavBar disappeared.

2) When I mute the call, mute icon is not shown. I have not tried with headset but it is safe to assume that the whole StatusIcon is missing.

oh btw, I'm using a hermes.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] DvTonder:
Kin0Kin, nice to see you commenting here - I hope to see this dialer (with your refinements) in your next ROM :-)

I just installed it and must say I really like it. One possible suggestion would be to make the main number text (in the blue window) slightly smaller in order to display a full international number in the format +1 (xxx) xxx-xxxx properly.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] jym04:
To use Dutty's OEM package, unzip his rar and copy to folder to .../kaiserkitchen/Packages. Then you have to create a "option.xml" similar the those in other packages folders, inside dutty's package folder.

Just copy one of the others, edit it and change its contents.

I changed the item name to the name of the folder and the guid line to "<Guid type="p">252a8b7d-79dc-4216-97a9-c5b32ca8a9a8</Guid>". Which is the name of the .dsm file.

That should do it.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] kin0kin:
You are right, turning it off and on solved the missing nav bar issue. However, these issues remain:

*When the dialer is installed as a cab*

1) Missing status icons

2) Menu shows TWO "Video Call Options"

3) When a call is being made, and the show keypad button is click, you can only hide keypad. It is not possible to go back to "call status" until A) the other party picks up the phone B) get out of the dialer.

With regards to #3, I'm not sure if this is a feature or a bug, but previous touch/kaiser dialer allows you to go back to call status after clicking show keypad. Then again, previous kaiser dialer doesn't have the "hide keypad" option at the first place.

I have not had the chance to try out any video call to verify if there are any more bugs.

Did you manage to fix the video tilt problem? Also, I have only tested the dialer as a cab, haven't tried cooking it in yet.

It works fine with me with K's Rom 1.30a (Hermes). However, as mentioned before, the status icons do not appear. The reason for that can be found in "phcanrc.dll".

Black text?

Hi - I'm a complete newbie to Windows Mobile so this might be obvious, but...

I'm using Dutty's Dialer skin as downloaded from the start of this thread, and it's brilliant - but when a call is open, the screen shows a dark grey gradient with black text. Is there any way to change the "Connecting...", phone number, and button text to be white or light grey? Otherwise it's pretty hard to read.

Otherwise this package is fantastic, the icons are far far better than the default Orange bleargh. Thanks!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] GpsPasSion:
Interesting, I've been meaning to ask the same question for a couple of weeks now, but couldn't locate the thread, this notification fixed that ;-)

Yes, it would be great to have the same turquoise gradient we get during a conversation when dialing out.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] dr_demento:
I've found a basic fix...

Schap's Advanced Config tool lets you diasble *all* dialler skins - installed or no. So, Dutty's DualTouch Dialler will replace the missed-call, received-call, sent-call icons with HTC defaults, and then disabling the dialler skin in AC gives you the default WM6 dialler - grey gradient background with nice large white text on it. It's not as pretty as Dutty's was otherwise, and it forces you to use Menu > filter > missed calls/received calls/sent calls to switch between each list (Dutty's has four large finger-friendly tabs along the bottom edge) - but anything's better than the horrible Orange one.

I'm just going to wait for an official HTC / WinMo ROM which I can use to completely scrub the entire phone of its Orange tendencies without clashes. All I want is a consistent UI!
