I've searched amazon and the bad ratings of claimed exact replacments are full of counterfeits. Ebay, forget about it. I've considered ordering from sprint but they want $50 for a battery and external charger that God knows who it was rebadged from. I've also considered anker. Some people love...

No luck so far on downloading the full rom. My spidey sense tells me this will probably be the very last update for this phone. If I get lucky with downloading via http, I might choose to post this via torrent. The amount of bs you have to go through with http is uncalled for! Or I might stay...

Where is this rom you speak of, ok2? Looked in the typical sections of this phone's area and didn't see any new posts.

Has anyone tried to plug in and test an external powered cd-dvd-bluray drive to the phone? If there was anydvd hd and handbrake for android,that would be awesome. Although my n3 would probably have a good run against my old, retired, thrown in the trash many years ago Intel pentium 800. 1.5 to 2...

This might have been an option, back in the old days, with older Samsung phones. With kit kat, is this option no longer available? Maybe back in the cwm recovery days... I noticed that many times, the phone will run for quite awhile at 1% before shutting down.

I'm am experiencing more times than I have the patience for, times in which a power down battery swap brings forth issues with instability with lollipop! Updating Google apps only to be caught in loops of death of gapps force closing or system apps hanging and having to wait minutes until things...

I don't know if there is any missing info on your explanation. I did notice problems on the ota. I also noticed differences between ota and full odin tar. The first difference i noticed with the full odin tar is the android wiggled its antennas. The second thing I noticed was the initial setup...

I'd happily exchange d+v for pegging a speedtest.net speed run for data!

TLDR; WHENEVER YOU ARE GOING TO FLASH ANYTHING, MAKE REDUNDANT BACKUPS AND GET THEM OFF THE PHONE! I was on OC and tried a few days ago, running triangle away. It didn't work. I had philz clockwork mod recovery, which worked after flashed with mobile odin pro. Before that, I had twrp latest...

I just tried triangle away in 5.0 and it doesn't work. It did work in 4.4.4

Something that nobody has mentioned yet is triangle away app for resetting status. When he kept mentioning wanam, I was like. ... what about ta? You still probably need root for either app. From my experience, custom status didn't matter if you had a full tar.md5 file and compatible version of...

I tested it in lp, with earbuds and noticed it's mono, even on strong signals. I'll stick to iheartradio and tunein radio (pro (really old version)) for stereo streaming. Why really old version? I think the direction the company went in updates were in the wrong direction. Plus, I prefer the...

I'm noticing app studdering while running without a reboot. Even when there are no apps in the app end screen, some games and music apps hiccup. Yes I'm running old versions of apps, mainly because the new ones are over bloated or crap or aren't hacked. I have old versions of candy crush and...

The one that made me write this post is that when in some other program, like Internet browser, the notification area is changed, color wise. I can't figure out the logic behind that. Battery life has been pretty bad after 24 hours too. Voicemail not auto signing in, after using the Google...
