Lblitzer posted:Anyone else use a Nokia wireless base and it causes your phone to get really hot? It's super convenient to use with my Droid Maxx but it doesn't charge that quickly and the phone gets very warm to the touch. Yes, and I'm pretty user it's the sole cause of battery death in my Nexus 5 due to heat. Heat being megabad for battery lifespan.

I downloaded the Battery Doctor App and it seems to be able to identify and turn off a bunch of things(70+ apps) that are running in the background, but apparently they don't stay off. Maybe they are on some kind of auto update mode or something, I dunno.

Vykk.Draygo posted:Right, but I think the issue here is that even encryption supposedly isn't zeroing out everything. The belief around here has always been that encrypting before factory wiping was the safe way to erase your data. The data is still there, but factory resetting should destroy the key used to encrypt it, which should make it unreadable. Now if the OS is not zeroing out the key, then of you knew where to look you could recover it and decrypt whatever is there.

The price was the same for an ATT Next plan vs buying it outright. Pretty sure the other plans like Verizon's Edge program work the same way.

amenenema posted:I would like to know how this works as well. I just went through the sign up. If you are BYOD/porting a number, you need to order a sim kit. When the sim kit arrives, you will start the number porting process. You are not billed until you activate your google fi sim kit, and your number will be active on your old carrier until the porting process finishes, which will be after your sim kit arrives and you activate it.

AnonymousNarcotics posted:Does anyone else have charging port issues on basically any phone using microUSB? I had this same issue on my old phone, SGS3, and now I have it on my Nexus 6. Basically it just stops working out of nowhere. Idk what to do bc I'm out of warranty but if I wanna pay off my phone and get a new one it's like $250+ (plus whatever the cost of the new phone is). Right now I'm using a wireless charger but it's not the same. I miss my quick charge. Take a paper clip, wrap some scotch tape around it sticky side out. Wiggle this around inside the phones USB port to collect all the dust.

Red Warrior posted:Plex is awful on Chromecast, it starts glitching out after playing 4-5 episodes in a row, which is terrible for some short kids shows. This is on both v1 and v2 Chromecasts. Also it has a ridiculous low bitrate limit that it starts requesting transcoded content at, so makes it hard to watch HD stuff. Use Plex on my Chromecast daily and it owns bones. HD comes in clear as day. Only "problem" I have is occasionally having to reconnect the app to the Chromecast.

Require More Fire posted:I guess I'll give it another try then, maybe I was missing something. I'm doing this on a 5x too, so it's not an old phone. When it first launched, for apps that weren't 2 factor aware, you would need to generate special log in passwords, or app specific passwords. I believe that's what it's referring to. Want to set up your account on your phone? Need an app password for that. I think most things no longer require app specific passwords however, and do the 2FA correctly by asking for a code.

Inspector 34 posted:Sometimes when I hit the power button on my Nexus 6 it vibrates and brings up my camera. Do you guys know what setting menu I go to to turn this off? Or even exactly what button press I'm doing to activate it? I've tried replicating it and I can't. Long press, short press, power + up/down volume, I can't figure it out. If I knew exactly what activates this feature then I could avoid doing it, but it seems completely random. There doesn't seem to be anything in the camera app settings so I'm kind of at a loss. Double tap power button does this. Unsure if you can disable it.

It fails with system.img, and from what I can tell looking into the issue, it tries to load the whole file into memory and runs out there of (it's a 32bit process). Like what the gently caress? Until the last two latest images or so, I've had to manually flash all the parts one by one because the flashall script would always fail sending the system image over. I don't even bother using the script anymore I've done it enough times.
