Hoping for some help or alternatives to fix my fiancee's Pixel XL. Last night the phone just kept flashing the 'G' logo on for 10 seconds, off for 10 seconds. She said the phone was close to dying before it happened, and I imagine it probably ended up draining the battery afterwards with the...

Wow I'm about ready to toss this phone now. I keep getting an issue where messages starts to lag like crazy, and then CONSTANTLY force closes. I'm talking like every few words I type, it force closes. I'll open it back up, type a few more words, the FC again. The worst part is, I've already...

I'm on full stock and need to unlock my phone for international use. I tried through ATT but apparently I can't since I'm under contract. I've never had to do this before, but I thought I remember reading this is, or can be, part of the S-off or root or something. Can this be done?

Few odd issues I'm having with my phone. Updated a few weeks ago to Lollipop, full stock. Did a factory reset after receiving the upgrade. Everything was pretty good. Not sure if another update went out a few days ago? I noticed some icons changed and I think a few more changes in camera and...

Seems to be a bug with the messaging app on 5.0 update. Fully stock. I text my gf probably a hundred times a day, and now all of a sudden I can't text her as it keeps sending me a message, 'error invalid number' and it displays her number with an extra 1 added 11(xxx)xxx-xxxx. I checked her...

I'm running stock just updated to Lollipop. Need to factory reset. I've learned that reset now completely erases ALL info, which I'm trying to avoid. It appears custom recoveries like CWM and TWRP will leave your personal info intact (sd partition). So my question is, just for the purpose of...

So I know there's a million reasons, usually network related, for sending a receiving duplicate messages. However, my default texting app is physically sending duplicates. If I send a message, it pauses as it's sending, and then all of sudden a duplicate appears. On my actual phone, I can see my...

Sorry if this is quite a noobish question, but I'm a bit confused after not doing this for a while. On my Note, I used to wipe and flash new roms all the time. I haven't yet done that with my M8 so it's been quite a while. I remember when I used to factory reset, I'd always still have my...

Is there anything yet on fixing how horrendous this camera is? Recently I've been trying to take more pictures inside and realize that it's actually almost unusable. I really love the outdoor shots with this camera, but inside I feel like I got far better pictures with my first camera phone in...

So all of a sudden the duo effects will not work on my phone. When I go to apply any effect, it says 'duo effects not available for this image'. However, they pictures were taken with all the settings as they should be. Also, if I block the duo lense, it states to unblock it.. so it's working. I...

So, after 8 months of use, my M8 is finally in a situation where I'm kind of sick of it running so poorly. In the past I've always had these issues over time, but I always contributed it mainly to running custom ROM's. Well, when I got my M8, it ran so well I decided to leave it stock. Well it's...

It frustrates me quite a great deal that my android is such a great phone (M8), but it turns so dumb when it comes to BT connectivity. The way I have it now, hands free is all but pointless. I like to use it for my phone so I can actually be safe and hands-free, without neglecting my calls and...

So I'm seeing if I can replace the default voice dial application. It's the one that pops up if you swipe down from lock screen, and allows you to tell the device to make a call. My car is bluetooth enabled, and when I hit the corresponding button on my car, it allows me to make a call. However...

I believe my girlfriend's phone (verizon M8) may have been stolen, and also turned off, or put into airplane mode. I can not find any info about options for tracking it down if it doesn't have service currently turned on. She says it was taken from a desk in her office. She called the phone...

Wondering what messaging apps all of you are using.. and if you have any recommendations. I absolutely love the stock app aside from two major faults: disappearing keyboard/lockup on each sent message, and no quick reply in notification drawer. But I really love the look and layout of it...

I'm starting to think I've got a bit of a lemon. I pulled my phone out of my leather case, and felt something sticky on the back. Turned it over and the T and C letters were both halfway out with the glue just barely keeping them from fully falling out. I also made a previous thread about an...

Curious how everyone else's phones have been holding up so far. The back of my phone is covered in little specks, which appear to be from pitting and minor surface scratches. It's very disappointing since I've had my phone permanently in a case since I've had it. I'm wondering if the metal is...

Ok so I guess this isn't specifically for the M8.. but I need some help. I've had my m8 for a while now but never properly copied over everything from my old phone. All of my old pictures in particular are still on my old phone. Well, most of them copied over.. but not the way I want. Basically...

Got a bit of an annoying issue. Every time I capture a picture to send through mms, it saves to my gallery. With previous phones, if I was in messages, went to attach, camera, capture... it would not save that picture. I send a lot of pictures this way and do not really want nor need to save all...

One thing that's a love/hate thing for me with this phone is the vibration. It's super loud and powerful. At first I loved it, but at work, it's actually a little obnoxious. Every time I get a text you can hear it from the other side of the room. I know with some phones there's options for...

Anyone know of a leather pouch made for the M8 yet? I had a Sena case for my Note. I'm hoping I can find something for this as I really don't want to put such a nice phone in an ugly case.

I'm considering going with either the m8 or s5 for AT&T. I'm not looking for a which phone is better. Just curious what kind of dev support is expected with this device. How was the development with the original one? Are there any considerable differences with official help from Samsung vs HTC...

So I'm finally upgrading from my note, and I definitely think I'm going either the M8, or the S5. I think I'm going M8 after my past few phones have been Samsung. One potential factor is I've read At&t is locking down on bootloaders now. Is this something that's fully universal across At&t, or...

So all of you note users.. what phones have you switched to? Or what phones are you keeping your eye on? I've got my upgrade coming up next month. The cool new phones that caught my eye are the G Flex and the HTC One (bit older though). It doesn't seem like ATT has many new options that aren't...

Ok so I ran into an issue here I've never had before. While I was using my phone, it rebooted on me. Not all that uncommon, but this time, after it turned off, it started vibrating and the camera LED started flashing on every vibrate. I've never seen this before. Holding the power button did...

Looking for advice here. I have no idea if this is hardware, software, something I'm doing wrong. I'd say the past year of having my note, it's painfully laggy. I've tried most of the more popular roms that are released. It's not always horribly slow.. but just about any time I switch to any new...

so I'm trying to get much more out of my battery. I'm on the newest slim 6/16 I think. I generally have data off all day, just Wi-Fi, sync off, everything off but Wi-Fi. I can usually make it through with and then it's just about dead so I'm screwed every night. every Rom I've tried is like...

Few questions about setting my backgrounds. I just installed the super nexus Rom. First, I can't figure out how to set a lock screen picture at all. It's just transparent to my home screen pic.. can't figure how to do it separate. And second.. I can't figure out how to set a stationary full size...

So I've had a number of roms that after flashing, Google will automatically restore all previous apps for you when setting up the new system. My question is.. is there a way to force this? I've had a few roms that didn't do this and I'm curious why, or if I can manually make the system do this...

Is this possible on the stock 4.1.2? I can't stand the screen unlock every time I get a notification. I have my lock screen as swipe, so every time I get a notification when my phone is in my pocket it usually unlocks and starts opening stuff. Or if I'm listening to music it will start changing...

So I think it's been about a year since I remember those threads popping up with white note users seeing pressure cracks around their screen. I was one of them and just unfortunately accepted it. I figured a little crack was no big deal. But.. how many do you have now? I'm at 16. Sent from...

Hey guys. So I've been having serious issues with my Verizon lumia side I've had it about 3 months. Constant issues with mms.. incoming pictures never come through. Freezes and reboots often. Phone keeps corrupting sd cards. Every time on boot up, it gives an error message staying to fix the sd...

So I'm looking to try to get my phone running more efficiently. In respect to both battery life and overall running smooth. Honestly my phone just runs like crap... lots of lag (not horrible most times), and battery life lasts me to 5pm every day. I have a feeling my biggest culprit is the...

I wanted to start this thread to avoid cluttering up the unofficial cm10.1 thread. I've tried everything I can think of to connect over usb. Turned on android debugging, off fast charge, mass storage on, tried mounting from recovery, multiple usb cables, multiple computers. Downloaded kies in...

Need help badly. Have a number of pictures and files in hide it pro. Was just viewing them. I tried to change vault location, it initially said something went wrong. Tried again and it said successful. Went to look at files, they're all gone. I can't find them in file explorer or anything. In...

I just lost all files within hide it pro. I thought they were initially within a vault in programdata/android/language/.fr or something like that. I had all my pictures. When I went to look at the vault storage location by going to 'change location' it just said sdcard/sdcard0 or something like...

Is it possible to run an actual Windows Rom in an android device? I remember hearing about this probably a few years ago with wp7, I could've sworn people had figured it out. I've got an AT&T note and miss Windows, but not enough to permanently switch to a Windows device. Any ideas? Sent from...

Are there any stock messaging apps that handle group texting correctly? It's absurd to me that our stock app doesn't have this. And I've used hand cent as well, which technically shouts what I need, but I've found it causes other issues and overall I just don't like it. Sent from my...

Is it possible to run the actual Windows phone 8 OS on my note? I've been thinking of trading this for a Windows phone since I've been running this for a while now.. but I remember hearing android users running the actual os on their device, which would be even better if that means being able...

hey guys.. looking for some help here. posting on behalf of my girlfriend who has a verizon lumia 822. Recently she can't receive picture messages anymore, from a number of different people. She's tried rebooting.. not sure what else to tell her. Usually things like this go away with a reboot...

a month or two ago I tried a whole bunch of jb roms and I couldn't stand a single one for daily use. so buggy. I've been back to ics.. pretty smooth, not exactly great either. are there any truly solid jb roms yet or not really compared to ics? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda...

please, somebody please help me get a useable phone again. I'm not sure if it's how I'm flashing, the roms I'm using, or if it's just what I have to deal with. things have sucked ever since the first jb Rom I've tried. I've had the awful non-responsive home button issue across all roms...

Seriously, this home button issue is driving me crazy. Is it really quite an isolated occurrence? And where is all the info on it? I'm talking about the home button not working on JB roms. Well so far i've tried CM10 and PA. Apparently FJ made his 2.3.1 alt kernel to fix this issue. But unless...

sorry if this is an issue brought up elsewhere. going from cm9 stable to cm10 10/2. wiped everything and installed. home button no longer works. downloaded i believe the correct google apps. also tried going to 10/1. still not working. any help? i can give more details if needed... i'm assuming...

need some help. running cm9 stable. my data connection will work fine, and then shortly anything using data will no longer be able to connect. a reboot will immediately fix the issue every time. this happens all the time. is it the Rom or something that needs to be reset?? thanks! Sent from...

This is in regard to the Sprint s2.hopefully this is correct forum. I'm posting this on behalf of my dad, it's his phone. His phone is fully stock and just received the ics update from Sprint. Once he did that, his phone is practically unusable. First his email would constantly fc. Then GPS...

This is in regard to the Sprint s2. Didn't see a specific forum so my apologies if I missed it. I'm posting this on behalf of my dad, it's his phone. His phone is fully stock and just received the ics update from Sprint. Once he did that, his phone is practically unusable. First his email...

I'm constantly not receiving text messages from friends. Not a lot, but seems like its happening like once a day from various people. Could this be related to what ROM I'm running or is it fully in the hands of Att? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app

What is the smoothest ROM out there right now (custom or not)? I love the work that the guys do on here, but I'm just getting fed up with FC's and insane lag on my phone. The three ICS roms I've tried have been the original team perfection port, then seraphim, then the unofficial. All of them...
