    Post [ROM][OFFICIAL] LineageOS 14.1 for Nexus 9 (flounder)

    +1. I got mine from an iOS user who barely used the n9 5 or 6 times for 110 CAD. Given how new and clean the tablet was and the steal price, just went for it. I have 2 N7 2013 as well both booting new, but boy after using n9 with lineage and a screen that awesome, my N7 are now not getting used...

    Post [ROM][OFFICIAL] LineageOS 14.1 for Nexus 9 (flounder)

    More than a week of heavy usage and I cannot thank the ROM creator and lineage os for making my nexus 9 fast and smooth. I have a 16gb tablet, does anybody have suggestions to maximize the disk space? I use Drive and Dropbox for all non essential items, but am down to 5 GB remaining. At what...

    Post [ROM][OFFICIAL] LineageOS 14.1 for Nexus 9 (flounder)

    Just wanted to thank you for this amazing rom. I cannot believe that n9 can be butter smooth or have 800mb unused ram left, can have 7-8 apps running in background and no swapping as you switch between apps. Apps launching in under 1 second or 2 max for apps like The Economist. Google Files...

    Post Note 4 keeps freezing and restarting

    Time to go back to 3310. I absolutely want to hit Samsung out of the park. We all should do a collective poll including imie nos to catalog how many devices that have failed and where. To my horror I am also reading similar failures with other non Note 4 Samsung devices. And then hold Samsung...

    I called Sammy hotline and they routed me to local affiliated service center (Canada, Missi) called Mobile Kliniq. I called them and the guy asked me to get my phone to the center but hearing my symptoms he said that most probably it seems like mobo issue and will cost me CAD 400 as the device...

    I seriously think this warrants a class action lawsuit. A vanilla, stock Note 4, taken top notch care, almost brand new, 2 year old device dies in 2 years. Even my Nexus 7 2013 with extreme modifying chugs along till date what ever I throw at it. Sent from my SM-G955W using Tapatalk

    Can we get Samsung to fix this for us? A flagship device dying in two years is ridiculous. Incidents like these make rethink about Apple QC, all my old iPhone work. But a fail for Samsung, LG for most of their most popular phones. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

    Post Spectacular results with Package Disabler Pro and Greenify on MM

    It's not as plain black or white and your results don't give much. With greenify you need to work and optimize every single process exceeding 20mb or so virtual memory and also reconfirm what was frozen. There are several basic differences between Samsung app optimization and Greenify. Please...

    Great tips, I have similar settings or disabled some of the above apps. Have you tried Naked browser? The best and most lightweight browser ever (Apus seems like a bloat).
