[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeltingSnowman:
My friend, who owns said phone, is having a lot of weird issues with it. The phone starded suddenly stop working and takes minutes to unlock with password or fingerprint. Last night he left it on and went to bed. Today he woke up and found it on a black screen (bootloader) with a yellow writing that said something like "kernel uploading". The phone was stuck so he took out the battery, put it back in and booted up the phone. The issues keep coming up so he decided to format it through recovery. Took multiple attempts to reset it but, in the end, he managed to do it. Nothing has changed, except that he restored it. Even with the phone clear there are still a lot of issues. What should I do to help him? I thought about flashing back the stock system with Odin but I've never done it since the Galaxy Ace era. Thanks.

Guys i have been using AICP rom as my daily driver and i just have found that the PlayStore Download on roaming issue has been resolved on its latest March 30th build.

I just want to ask that, can anyone please check and report that whether it has been resolved in other roms too or not or its like Google have itself resolved the issue. Since there is no official news from Google though.

Thanks. :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tekkado:
Hi Guys,

So my note 4 has turned into a brick. I was using it fine and I flashed stock rom and it turned to crap. Like it would take 1 minute for the keyboard to come on screen when needed, apps would make it crash and restart constantly. I flashed Dr. KEtan rom and when i went to restore my apps it would crash after even one install. It then crashed and wouldnt turn on at all. I tried soft reset and would maybe get to the samsung logo but crash. Again maybe get so far as a few different errors before the loading screen.

I then placed the device in the freezer and froze it for like 20mins, pulled it out and there wasnt too much condensation and was fine.

BAM!! it turns on and is fully functional and useable like normal. I get all my apps back on and using it, using gps using everything. But i was cautious not to over work it but then accidentally did and again it would be completely unresponsive until i put it back in the freezer, freeze and it works again.

Does anyone know whats going here? is there some poor contact inside that when it gets hot loses contact and resets in the freezer??

Cheers =]
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yashthemw:
Probably an Emmc failure.

The freezer thing has worked for many, but there isnt any permanent solution.

Hi I have a 2016 gear vr with usb type C and I'm thinking of getting the new galaxy s8, so I was wondering if the 2016 gear vr will work on the galaxy s8 or not?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] apprentice:
I was just about to post the exact same question and it brought me here!

I have the 2016 VR too, but searching the web doesn't bring up any answers as to whether it will work with the S8. I think the S8+ might be too big for it but the S8 isn't far from the size of the S7 Edge.

Hoping someone can confirm this.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] JWnSC:
It might work..not sure though. I compared the s8+ to my note 7 and it's almost the exact same width and slightly taller.

I just checked but the seller I got mine from has no stock. Can't find anymore listings for it on ebay either. Part number is GH98-40350A. The connector would have come with your gear vr. Usually it'll have the micro usb one installed and the usb c one in the box

It won't work with the S8+ the adapter makes it too long g to fit, nearly an inch or more longer than it'd need to be to work. I have the S8+ and 2016 VR which I was told would work because the adapter to USB C wraps around d the USB micro making it no longer...well the T-Mobile rep was wrong so I'll be going in today to see what they can do so since that's the only reason I upgraded from my S7 Edge. I'm pissed..
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] DonJuan89:
The 2016 Gear VR (SM-R323, I believe) works flawlessly with the S8. I got mine off of ebay from someone who got their Gear VR with an S7 but never even opened the box. There was a USB-C connector already attached to the Gear VR from the box and also a separate exchangeable MicroUSB connector for older models.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] pete4k:
I have both, the one that came out in 2016 with Note 7 and the one with S8. They seem to be identical in size and the only difference is the remote control, which older gear didn't come with. Make sure you have proper connector attached (there are 2) and adjust position to either A or B, depending on size of the phone. I didn't even notice width adjustment until very recently

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Deleted member 8142559:
1) Try yourself to find the best ROM..

2) battery life is nearly identical for all roms i tried.. (AOSP Extended, Resurrection Remix, Lineage OS, AICP)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Sachin:
Custom Miui rom? Eh, there is no custom Miui roms I guess, you could try flashing Xiaomi.eu roms. That's all I know about mi roms.

Just flash an AOSP based rom, best for business :p

AFAIK, every custom ROMs / MIUI roms gives same battery life.

Good rom - criteria in post

Hi there. I finally got permission to unlock the bootloader in my xiaomi redmi note 4 global Version (snapdragon). Well, actually it's a device I'm Setting up for a friend.

I will try several roms for the Note 4 mido, but I Need some helpf from you to narrow the roms I'm going to try.

The criteria the roms should fullfill:

- Simple

- Stable

- good battery life

- fast/snappy

- good camera-app preinstalled

- good gps / navigation

- Fingerprint sensor working

- front sensor-Buttons working

- if possible, OTA updates

Would AOSP ext, Resurrection Remix and Lineage be a good choice, or are they instable/too Feature rich? What about AICP? What's the difference between slim7 and candy7? Would they be good? Thank you very much for any Input, really looking Forward working with this device and to get rid of miui... ;)

I tried XenonHD, Lineage and AOSP ext. so far, always the latest version. I love the simplicity of Xenon, and that it uses the Nova Launcher. Unfortunately, it bugs me that the soft-buttons on the front don't vibrate (yet). Lineage... I just tried it too short to judge it.

Resurrection was too complicated/feature rich for my taste.

Then I installed AOSP extended, and I really, really like it. It's really stable, it works, and it has all the daily-driver qualities that I need.

Hi,

I'm on latest ATT radio 1.54.07.00 and not happy with battery life, i did not try other RADIOs since I know how dangerous to flash it. I'm looking for opinions which other RADIO ROMs are best of ATT and for battery life.

If I can save on battery life and have the same good reception then I'm willing to take a risk of flashing. I don't care about 3G etc, only voice.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] noellenchris:
I'm using 1.54.30.10 as well. It seems like the same battery life, however I haven't tested with the above suggested software. I can say that I can pick up 3g in places the other radios couldn't. At least it is a lot quicker to detect and use 3g than 1.54 or 1.50. I don't recall if I used 1.48 or not. I'm also in NJ. Good luck.

The biggest question for me and others probably how battery life compared to newer version of Radio. I definetely saw improment (see my previous post) when downgraded to 1.48, was wondering if somebody with newer radio can run the same utility and see their power consumption.

I am running 1.50.00. Previously used 1.40.30 and 1.48. 1.48 seemed to be the best of the lot but 1.50 is nearly as good so I stick with it. I found that 1.48 had the best balance of signal strength and battery life. I think 1.50 has a slightly better signal strength, but somewhat lower battery life than 1.48.

[Wileyfox Swift 2 Accessories] dryhte:
Hi all,

it would be nice if we could compile a list of the accessories we're happy with.

I'll start with the official case. It's really snug and feels good in your hand, and (as opposed to the official case of the original Swift) it doesn't crack when you look at it crossly ;) Really happy with it, endorse it without reserve. (You need to like flashy orange, though ;) )

EDIT: this one: https://www.pdashop.be/product/759010/wileyfox-swift-2-swift-2-plus-back-cover-oranje.html
[Wileyfox Swift 2 Accessories] linuxct:
Okay so for the cases:

My device came with the official one (in grey color), and after a month or so the power button came off, it didn't seem very strong at first and I knew that was going to happen at some point. Still, not disappointed with it but I didn't feel like it was "protective enough".

So, I went ahead and bought this one https://www.amazon.co.uk/WileyFox-Olycism-Shock-Absorption-Resistant-Transparent/dp/B06XG78G9B/ which came yesterday, and it definitely feels more safe now. Official case feels too plasticky for me, and I've always been a fan of this gummy style of cases. The cutouts for buttons and I/O are perfect, and align perfectly with the device. It doesn't feel too much thick either, so it's definitely a plus. It has a bezel protecting the screen in case the phone falls to the floor, so yeah. I don't regret spending 6 bucks on it in sale.

I can provide pics of any of both, if someone needs it.
[Wileyfox Swift 2 Accessories] r.lepecha:
I've got a clear one of these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/132114205792 , which seems to look very similar to the case shared by linuxct . Fits well and cut outs are good.

Need to buy some screen protectors soon..
[Wileyfox Swift 2 Accessories] Stocky86:
I got one of these:

amazon.de/Abacus24-7-Handyh%C3%BClle-Kreditkarten-Schutzh%C3%BClle-Smartphone/dp/B01MTY0YJY/ref=sr_1_3?s=telephone&ie=UTF8&qid=1493056844&sr=1-3&keywords=swift+2+abacus

It fits good and the possibillity transport debit cards or paper money without a wallet is nice. Unfortunately the seam dissolves a litte bit but that can beficed with a fire lighter or a drop of superglue.
[Wileyfox Swift 2 Accessories] dryhte:
Are they snug enough? I bought one that looked like these on e-bay for my original Swift, and it wasn't really tight enough. Just tight enough in fact to remain on the phone, but it felt quite loose.
[Wileyfox Swift 2 Accessories] Xyphoid:
Anyone know a good fitting tempered glass screen protector for the 2X? Al the ones I found are too big (edges don't curve down) and don't stick very well.
[Wileyfox Swift 2 Accessories] bushbladewill:
Wileyfox themselves have just released a screen protector for the swift 2x I've just ordered one. I've tried loads bought off eBay and had refunds for all of them as the fit has been terrible.
[Wileyfox Swift 2 Accessories] Xyphoid:
I bought a soft screenprotector from Screenknight. Fits very well and is smooth (after I peeled the protection layer off haha). I don't like the soft feeling, but it's better than an ill fitting tempered glass one.

I'm just gonna order the one on Wileyfox's site and report back when I receive it.

- Edit -

I received the screenprotector.

Good quality and very easy to apply.

After application you see a little oily residue under the screen. I hope that will disappear after a while.

Cool thing is that the logo on the bottom is shiny, so it's more visible than the dark logo.
[Wileyfox Swift 2 Accessories] bushbladewill:
I too got one of the Wileyfox screen protectors for the swift 2x it has the slightly oily look underneath it too. I thought it was a fault and got a replacement but the second one is the same. It does seem the best fit out of all the ones I've tried so far. The oily look is only visible when the screen is off. I do have a screen knight but have never applied it as I didn't fancy getting the phone wet.
[Wileyfox Swift 2 Accessories] divvykev:
Another one here with the slimy look under the screen protector. Fits nicely and like already said, looks nice too.

Got one of these as a case

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B071LDGHTQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Awful. Looks smooth in the piccys but the back has quite sharp edges.
[Wileyfox Swift 2 Accessories] divvykev:
This was the reply from Wileyfox about the "oily" screen protector issue.

"Other than making sure your screen is clean and then reapplying the screen protector there isn't much else I can suggest I'm afraid."

Not a big problem anyway.
[Wileyfox Swift 2 Accessories] Xyphoid:
Dropped my phone on a sand path with pebbles. My screenprotector flew off. Cracked.

Not a scratch on my screen or case :P

Been walking around without screenprotector since. The screen is much more responsive compared to with the screenprotector.

I think I'm gonna leave it like this. If my screen breaks, I just get it repaired or get a new phone.
