[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
Can I Reflash With Same June 2017 without Unlocking Bootloader - yes, the stock ROMs we have access to should be signed by Motorola, so should flash on a locked or unlocked bootloader regardless.

You should be able to get OTA updates without waiting for an updated stock ROM. From your previous posts, you seem unsure of this. It is still up to you and your responsibility whether you choose to take an OTA or wait for the updated stock ROM. If you re-locked your bootloader, then you must have been able to re-flash the entire stock ROM, else you may have failed to boot (as you'd have likely failed the verification checks performed by a locked bootloader). Thus, your device might be okay to update. Again, as I have mentioned previously in replies to your posts, if you are worried about hard bricking, then wait for the updated fastboot ROM. The updated fastboot ROM has complete files and thus has a lower risk of damaging/bricking your device. I understand you're eager to get the latest OTA updates, however you could wait and see if there are any bugs/outstanding issues before updating.

Depending on the commands in that stock flash.bat file, you may wipe your device, so back up accordingly.

As an aside, how are you not sure you flashed the full stock ROM? Surely if you followed the guide and used all the commands, you'd have fully flashed? If you look in the stock flash.bat script (open it in Notepad or a text viewer), you'll note the commands should be the same as what you used previously?

Here is copy of chat

I am here to ask about a new update to Fire Phone

SOFTWARE UPDATE

Understand?

08:12 PM CEST Enya Schomer: yes i understand, thank you

08:12 PM CEST Azis Ozan: Will receive means future

08:13 PM CEST Azis Ozan: i asked if fire phone will receive fireos5

or bootloader code

08:13 PM CEST Enya Schomer: we do not have an updates available for you at this time sorry.

And we also do not have access to such information.

08:13 PM CEST Azis Ozan: So where i can gain access to that information

08:14 PM CEST Azis Ozan: Cause i am a customer who needs to know something about he paid money

08:15 PM CEST Enya Schomer: Will go ask for you, one moment

08:16 PM CEST Azis Ozan: Thank you, Enya!

08:28 PM CEST Enya Schomer: I have checked in our database and see that we haven't released bootloader unlock code for Fire Phones because our technical team is still working on developer version. We regret for any inconvenience this may have caused to you.

08:28 PM CEST Azis Ozan: So if technical team works

when will release a new update

i get this answer since 1 year

and no any new OTA update

08:29 PM CEST Enya Schomer: since we have discontinued the Fire Phone, chances are that there will be no more software updates in the future.

08:29 PM CEST Azis Ozan: So how can you say, techinal team works if fire phone is discontinued

it's not logically

08:30 PM CEST Enya Schomer: At this point there is no software update on its way

08:31 PM CEST Azis Ozan: Give us bootloader unlock code

If fire phone is discontinued, we paid about 600$ for a piece of art

08:31 PM CEST Enya Schomer: This is not possible

08:31 PM CEST Azis Ozan: Why?

08:32 PM CEST Azis Ozan: Will be possible if we give to newspaper the situation about Amazon's Fire Phone?

Why Sony, Samsung, Lg gives to customers bootloader unlock code?

08:49 PM CEST Enya Schomer: I cannot speak for the other companys. However i will pass this on to our technical team for further investigation. I cannot promise anything, but will be in contact with you as soon as we receive an answer.

08:56 PM CEST Enya Schomer: the chat will close in 30 sec due to inactivity.

Vielen Dank.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] widowmaker17:
I know when flashing, firmware updates can be 1Gb - 2Gb file sizes. When you take that same update OTA, do they send down the entire firmware file, or just the sections that need updating? This 910V is the first phone I have never rooted, and have never taken an OTA update. When I bought it, it was on 5.0. I downloaded the CQC1 firmware and installed it updating it to 6.0, via Odin. It tried to update itself immediately after I rebooted. I disabled the updater until I did some homework, as the thing was relentless about updating and driving me crazy. I see now there is CQD1, CQE1, and CQF2 available. My problem is, I have a crap internet connection (1.5Mb) and am wondering if it has to download that hug file anyway OTA, if I wouldnt be better downloading it myself and installing it via Odin.... rather than an OTA update that gives me no info on progress etc....?

So:

1) OTA or download and install it/them myself

2) If installing myself, Where is the best place to download the huge file, without having to sign up or be throttled?

3) Is there anything in these newer updates that warrant updating, or any problems that arise from them? Or is it wise to just stay on CQC1 which is working without a hitch?

Thanks for any help.

You can try lineageOS for the most smooth use experience and best battery usage.You can also try Resurrection Remix or XenoHD if you like more features and more customize, which are both made from Lineage.

Ive tried them all.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killer007TV:
Hello, could you tell me what - if you're currently on Lineage - customization are you using? Launcher, icon packs, whatever (as the customization is limited by non-existing Xposed for Nougat). I came to Lineage from Ressurection Remix (aiming for longer battery life which many users are claiming) and as I had lots of troubles transfering to LOS (wrong ADB drivers, losing TWRP,...) I really want to squeeze as much as possible out of this ROM as I got it to a working state. Thank you :)

Hi,

I was wondering if there is a way to stream Audio from firetv stick to my phone via Bluetooth or WiFi and watch movies without disturbing others at night. Any help on this will be appreciated :)
[Fire TV General] daryl2347:
Absolutely, this is a pretty easy one...

I have a Vizio Smart1080 blah blah etc etc... On my phone I've downloaded SmartCast Mobile found within Googles Slay Store. Within Vizio's settings, you can set the TV remote up as the firestick by use of CEC, which allows your TV remote to sync to the fire remote controlling complete functionality. Then, I setup SmartCast Mobile by following instructions that were given after the the setup of SM on my phone on the TV's end of things. Basically If your Tv is '

smart

', yes. there is a way </BushDidIt>
[Fire TV General] centurianrahul:
Stereo Bluetooth is the best option

You can use any stereo bluetooth headset with firetv and the audio will be transmitted from stick to the headset.

Despair, but seems to sleep. Marginally bigger, but updated are ABC and SimpleAOSP. More effective than finding slimmest ROM will be using NanoGApps, slim apps and browser in place of apps.

Hello, do you know any good games that will run on this device? Running Lineage 14.1. Preferrably not freemium ones and paid ones are welcome too. :) Also, which N rom you think is the smoothest?

Thanks for replies!
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] john99ap:
Personally I thing Android Ice Cold Project is the smoothest but you may encounter a few bugs at the present builds (eg gps might not work). I don't know about games but if you want to play a heavy one you 'd better switch to kitkat. N roms leave less ram free so the game may lag.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MartinYTCZ:
Could you tell me which KitKat rom is the best?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] john99ap:
I have not experimented much with kitkat roms but I think that Slimkat by Android-Andi is very fast. However you may experience some bugs (rotation was not working for me). That was solved by flashing an old device-specific build instead of the latest unified one as suggested by other users in Slimkat thread.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MartinYTCZ:
I had problems with SlimKat. What about cyanogenmod?

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ImbaWind:
Hi all Samsung Galaxy S8 users, I'm currently going to purchase a new device as my daily driver. However, I'm wondering if I should purchase Oneplus 5 or S8.

Oneplus 5 is using OOS which is a slightly modified AOSP rom which I will surely love but the S8's screen is really gorgeous and more 2017-ish.

I'm curious about the long-term performance of S8, since S8 is using TouchWiz which is a heavily skinned version of Android and is notorious for its instability such as force close on apps/random reboots/random stutters and so on as well as performance drawback.

I'm looking for a device which is capable of gaming, fluid UI and last me a day with mixed usage. Since there's no LOS available for the S8 yet, I will have to debloat the ROM if I purchased it so I'm looking forward to anyone's comments regarding the performance improvement(if there's any) after debloating the S8.

So for those who have used S8 for months, what's your thoughts? Do you regret buying this phone? Will you buy an Oneplus 5(any other phone) instead if you were given another chance?

**My location's S8 will be an Exynos version.

**Currently using Oneplus One

Thanks in advanced for every comment.

**** If there is any Chinese users here, I wonder how's the 王者荣耀 (Chinese version of Mobile Legend) runs on this phone?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] topmemes:
First off, I have the Exynos version. While the S8 is my first Android phone, I have never had any issues whatsoever with Touchwiz. I've maybe once had an app crash, never had random reboots and the stutters are only present in apps such as the Play Store where content is loaded as you browse. Performance is absolutely amazing. I always hestitated going Android because of the issues you are describing, but I absolutely don't regret switching over. The UI is as fluid as it can be, games are smooth, battery is fine (I'm not a heavy user but I can use my phone for 2 days before having to charge). Debloating the S8 would mostly be getting rid of Bixby and carrier apps. Other than that there aren't too many things to remove imo. From what I've read, many people that complain about Touchwiz being unstable are people that mess with Package diablers while not knowing properly what to disable. This causes weird issues, stutter, lag and whatnot. I can't tell you whether it used to be bad of my own experience cause I've never really used a Samsung phone before. Imo the S8 is one of the best devices around, for a reasonable price. If future Samsung phones will continue to be as good, I will upgrade without a second thought.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] udo 240:
I own a S8+ for months and in my opinion you should buy a OP5! Less money and a really nice comunity support with custom roms and kernels, .... thats all for less money. You´ll get the fastet device on earth at this moment. All things Samsung sells are to expensive for that money they want... Some of my friends own a OP5 and I really enjoy to play with that phones. Mine and their are rootet and debloated
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] jonny908:
I do recommend S8. I'm coming from LG v10 which was 5.7 size. S8 is 5.8 but it is smaller due to nearly frame less screen. Now I'm mad at myself I didn't buy S8+...

Regarding the OP5. I've heard it's not that much of improvement of OP3T. Also, the camera is not as good as in Samsung. Just watch comparison videos or photos.

My vote: go for S8+. S8 feels like 5.3 inch. I think s8+ will be like 5.7. And trust me, watching movies on this gorgeous display is worth the extra money. You won't be disappointed. I've heard that Samsung lowered S8 and S8+ prices to attract the new Iphone lovers.

Cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] azezamere:
You can get s8 almost same price as op5 .so many deals going on. I'm enjoying my s8 plus avgrat battery after using 4 month it's going strong never had profirmance issue it's smooth as buttery .

Best camera best screen best look. Speaker is loud. I recommend buying s8 plus but if it's big for u s8 is good too

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] tomsag:
Purchased both of them beginning of this month.

OP5 came earlier, so I had some time to use it as a daily phone. Very nice and speedy phone. Everything looked very good, and I thought it would be excellent successor to my previous Oneplus x, which I liked more than a year long (actually still like it).

Then came the Samsung S8. It was not so easy to switch from vanilla Android regarding overall settings , but at the end I liked the Samsung add-ons in Settings, sicne it's really very well organized.

To sum up the reason why I sold OP5 and am now very happy with S8:

S8 is more compact, especially the width of the phone makes it easier to handle one handed.

The Samsung screen is absolutely fantastic, and in direct sunlight waaay better then OP5.

Despite not having two cameras, photos on the S8 are much better, and video recording in low light is incomparable. S8 has OIS!

This phone has a lot more options (features), which I found really useful - like: Bluetooth 5 (nice when you have more then one device connected i.e. external speaker and

BT headset). HDR video support and a lot of options to set the color temperature of the display. Water resistance and wireless charging are also important to me.

There are however some things I needed to change to be satisfied with S8, and luckily it was quite easy. I replaced the phone dialer and contacts applications with stock one from Google.

And - definitely a drawback in S8 compared to OP5 is the screen width, so you will have less information on the screen regarding one line, but more of them are present since the display is much taller.

Regarding pricing, I bought the S8 (new) on ebay for 535EUR and OP5 costs 499EUR. so there is not much difference at this moment.

My 2cents.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ImbaWind:
Appreciate every comment, thanks!

Thanks for your reply! I'd prefer smaller one tho, looks like easier to navigate through the screen.

Thanks for your comment! In my country, if I want to buy the top spec OP5 from official retailer vs S8, it's only about 100 USD difference. And yeah, OP5 community support is better but I'd rather stick to one stable rom than flashing possibly bugged open betas etc. So what's your experience with S8? Do you enjoy using it? How it differs from OP5 in terms of performance after debloating/custom rom etc?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] The Root:
I'd get it again. If I had more time, I might have figured out how to get an Exynos model, but I also probably wouldn't have noticed the difference. I'm happy with my pre-order 256 GB card.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ImbaWind:
So you think Exynos version is better over the SD version?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] jonny908:
Exynos is always the better one, in every Samsung variant. Also I think Exynos version of S8 was the first to be rooted, Snap had some issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] The Root:
I've always heard it's a bit snappier. You also usually have more options for stable root if you want to go that direction.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] udo 240:
It's a little bit faster and the bootloader can be opend easy!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] testreaper:
I was also on the same boat, bought s8 never looked back.

No lags at all, superb battery life, no heating issues, basically everything i feared that i would see are gone. But i bought this even more for the resale value.

When oneplus decides to take things seriously i will spend my money on them, till then samsung all the way up.

If i were to decide again now however i would seriously consider lg v30.
