[POLL] Android Subforum for Kaiser users

Hey guys,
cause of the fast growing android on kaiser community, it would be great to get a new android subforum for us. For me that makes sense cause things get less complicate, and people won't post wiMo questions in android threads and vice versa..
So, let the poll beginn

I was thinking of that for last month... hope mods will see this poll
Definetely yes, please...

Yes....... I think it's a great idea.

Moved as not Kaiser ROM / Android Development.
I'll pass this on to moderation team.

Yes for the vogue people i think. I Haven't noticed such a poll here in kaiser forums

Been thinking of just this very subject over the past week, getting harder to keep track of the android threads.
With Kaiser Android under such heavy development I feel we really need a sub-forum for it, would help keep the confusion to a bare minimum.

In case the mods decide to give us an own subforum, here are the most latest Android threads from Rom developing:

Guys - new Android forum lives! Enjoy

It may take a couple of hours before everyone can see it.

You can post links to any threads you want moving over here, I'll do them when I can...

The Android sub-forum will help us to find more quickly the topics, and is a great idea, cuz Winmo and Android in same sob-forum is strange.

The waiting Room - Off Topic

While everyone is waiting for their phones, I thought I would start a thread where we could just talk without worrying about going off-topic. If you want to talk about how other phones compare to the HTC First, rant about rotten fruit and the vegetables that use them, etc, than this is the place.
Just please remember that all of the forum rules still apply here though.

welcome to XDA
Hi everybody, I am one of the mods on the team, welcome to the forums. If you post a question thread here in the General forum and notice it is missing, please check the One Q&A forum and you might just find it there.
If you posted a placeholder thread simply to gain thanks for doing nothing, you might have to keep looking...
Thank you,

about the placeholder threads.... you will close the placeholders or delete them
? people start the placeholder index threads (they are closed) and then when the device is released their thread is opened again and that is not fair. if such threads are opened again then what is the use of closing them at the first place. it would be better if you delete any placeholder threads when they are created.
just a request to mods that you delete placeholders.
thanks

To be honest I hadn't decided completely. I understand that such threads are going to be opened even though they are really off-topic and have nothing to do with the phones. In some cases depending on the quality of the post and the attitude of the member, I might undelete/reopen it, but I might not since the only real purpose in opening such a thread now is to gain thanks for doing nothing of real benefit and I don't think that type of behavior is generally to be rewarded. Especially when it is really of no benefit whatsoever. Not like a placeholder for a [GUIDE] or something actually potentially useful, especially if done by a well-known member with a good history.

Not yet. But according to The Verge, the One Mini will be released in the US (AT&T) on Friday. Hopefully, some dedicated Dev might be able to port its (4.2) ROM to the First - or use it to help get CM or other ASOP working.

some pics i took
i think the htc first is a sexy looking thing, and decided to take some pictures using a background defocus mode. didnt quite work out since the camera doesnt recognize PHONES as a face or anything to focus on...so i did the best i could and came up with this.
i had to compress the pcitures, originaly each one was around 3.5 - 4 megabytes in size and was around 2000x1400 in size or something around there. in otherwords. huge.

R.I.P. to that CM development that we had going on a few weeks ago

thing is guys. Rashed can do it. like he could do it blindfolded and port like anything no joke ive seen this happen. but what he needs is like a ton of spare time. being in highschool is busy stuff. im just fresh out of there and into college, barely find some time to sit down and ruu my phone cause i use it for like school and stuff.
so if we all have patience either he will do it or someone else, so dont get sad.
also, some plain logic. the more we wait the more people buy the first and the more support we get.

Sadly the First is discontinued so not much people will be buying it unless they are looking for it specifically lol.

lollipop delayed and End of production for Nexus 5

...Google end production on nexus 5....
http://techpp.com/2014/11/05/nexus-5-discontinued/
..Nexus 5.0 update delayed until Nov.12..

Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

from the same article that you posted about the n5 being discontinued..
Update: There’s a possibility that Google is stopping the production of only the 32GB version of Nexus 5, as the XDA user above was asking for a replacement of 32GB Nexus 5. We will be contacting LG/Google for clarification and will update this article accordingly.

End of production was to be expected from my point of view.
But "delayed" update was a quiet a surprise because I was expecting at the end of November.
I'm quiet happy that they will release OTA on 12th, that means the image will be up few days sooner.

Nah it will not end.
http://www.google.com/nexus/5/
The site says it all.

Yea... Wouldn't make sense to discontinue it, and take the effort to redo the Nexus 5 page showing it running Lollipop.

Come on guys, you know how it is. This is rumor season. A bunch of people just randomly show up to the forum to post something they probably saw on G+ or something. Take 99.99% of all of this stuff with a grain of salt. As for the N5, I'll believe it's discontinued when you can't buy it on the Play Store from a link that says get your NEW Nexus 5 here...

So, you're pointing to a blog that in turns points back to lively thread here in our very own forums... Needless to say the original XDA thread does a fine job of repudiating the idea that the N5 has been terminated -- for all the reasons noted in the above posts. Circular posts like this just feed the rumour mill and before long we all end up authoritatively on IBTimes!
Though the N5 portion of this thread seems redundant in light of the XDA source thread I'll add a further 2¢: The original complaint seems to be someone trying to RMA their device (specifics are lacking), If that's the case he/she would only be offered a refurbished unit as per Google policy. That wouldn't explain the explain the wording of the feedback from Google Play, but in that case I'd suggest it's little more than miscommunication. In fact, the wording of the Play email is rather unlike anything I've ever had back from Google/Play support.
Said thread / rumour began here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/nexus-5-wont-produced-anymore-t2921263/page2
EDIT: *sigh* Even the postponement item is a report on a rumour from another site. "Android Police claims to have learned that the over-the-air (OTA) update for Android 5.0 Lollipop has been postponed to until..." While AP is a very credible source (and this report has been thoroughly covered in the appropriate forum here already), linking to a repeat of a report is fairly useless unless the fresh take offers an actual fresh take with, ya know, with new details or insights.

What happened to official statements? Are they valid nowadays? Because Google hasn't officially declared anything regarding this... So why discuss it further?

It would be awesome if there were one place to discuss all these...... Wait... What about...

That thread is for the Developer Preview of Lollipop. Not the public production release of Lollipop.

Yep, this trend makes it appear as if there is a lot less content too. Plus like you mention I'm not reading 100 pages in a thread with a title I have no interest in.
Much easier to have more specific topics with several pages than broad topics with hundreds of pages where who knows what page the info I'm looking for might be on.

Well, if you had read the blog post that you cited regarding end of production you'd have seen that it was referring to (and linked to!) an XDA N6 thread. If, having realized this, you still felt there was a clear need to (re)post it here you could have - at least - linked directly to the original XDA thread.

Another future of N5/Nexus thread,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2919674
And most here know that all L discussion goes in the L general or Q&A threads until it's officially released. Hence the reason every single L or Lollipop thread has been closed by the moderators.... In case you didn't see that trend. ?
Please guys. Stick to the L sticky threads as we've been asked to numerous times. ?

This is very good news.
Now android l can fix the problems of nexus 5 and make much better. now i like nexus 5. nexus 6 too big, it sad and sad
why delay because google still watch us with nsa so who care if they watch us all the time then they watch us right now be very disappointed with the delay

I will point out that the 32GB is out of stock on the Nexus 5 minisite, but that just means out of stock, which means no backorderable stock, which could mean waiting on new manufacture. I actually believe that Google understands, as do I, that this phone is still very cutting edge; and at this price point, most certainly the best buy for the dollar on the market. I have the opportunity to get any new phone now with a company paid monthly bill on AT&T or Verizon. You know what? I'm gonna keep my N5 on Straight Talk. Call me a dummy but I can't find a phone I like more with the features I've grown attached to (wireless charging ftw), a brilliant high dpi screen, and a form factor that fits just right (any larger and I can't one-hand it on the subway while keeping my other hand on the railing). What really makes a phone feel new is a radically upgraded OS, and that's what I have now with my no-questions-asked free replacement refurb on Android 5.0. Thanks Google!

@KJ is right, plenty of threads to discuss this.

A lot of us have already looked at it and still are looking at it we've had it since Monday. Probably beyond my capabilities but i do know the eteam have been looking at it

Seriously. ..whats wrong with people!? Sure i could have, and no I'm not in search of fame and glory. Maybe when i was 15 and also couldn't behave and be nice to people. What i meant was, that if you think i should have posted this in another thread you can point it out in a nice way or just klick thanks and move on. What rudness leads to is real newcomers wont dear to post anything and therefor wont learn and maybe we all miss out on a great contributior. And i disagree as the other threads i found was either saying our phone got LP or was closed. And i would like to give a big thank you to sawdoctor. He answered in a good manor and that should have been the end of this thread. Or did you alla know that i had been looked in to!?

No your the reason people don't come to xda for support. Threads apon threads only make things confusing. If you would have commented on the other 12 threads all would have been fine.

It's also pointless because this is the note 4 not edge.

In all fairness I think he was asking the question could this be ported to the n910f rather than another "when will we get lollipop " thread

Yes Sawdoctor, you are completely right ?. And AxAtAx makes a good point also. But my main point stands. We should stop flameing and help each other out. A simple "we have threads to discuss this" would have sufficed. Spare the bad attitude. Or i can be wrong? Maybe a bad climate is what everybody wants?
I really understand the concept of starting thread upon thread with the "same" topic isn't productive . But i really thought this was different than "Wow LP is here!". But if you all think otherwise i apologies.

Dad got an Edge and installed leaked Lollipop on it. If I can do something that could help porting it to our Note 4 please tell. But it shouldn't involve root, he doesn't want to root it (yet?).

Frequent network diaconnect
I have been using this rom for around a day and overall smooth. But I am losing network connectivity frequently (every hour or so for 5 mins) and unable to make/receive calls during that period. Anybody else having this issue? This is for T-Mobile Note 4, 3-12 build.
Also Google Play Services seems to awake all the time. Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere, but I have searched and didn't find soluction.

5.1
any word on Android 5 .1 for this rom

When it's ready it is ready never ask for etas

your first posts, and you not only ask the same question twice.

From the Moderator
To all in this forum......... Post Respectfully or DO NOT POST.
To the New Guy posting, you need to read rules, and follow them. There is an etiquette to posting
1. Do not make requests for update to a ROM unless you are the one making that ROM..... people make the Custom ROM for their pleasure and learning experience, not to satisfy anyone's personal need in XDA.
2. When unsure about something SEARCH 1st.
3. When posting be kind, civil and Respectful.
4. Stay on topic
Following these basic guidelines will help you improve your experience in XDA. If you post a question for help someone will most likely help........ that is what XDA is about....... helping each other to improve our Android/phone experience

Understdable, but he was not just asking a question, he was asking basically for an eta on 5.1 & you know that is frowned upon. Users also need to practice manners, etiquette, & troubleshoot issues on their own. It is not the Dev's job to be here at all times leading these guys by the hand. A dev is simply sharing his work, if a user doesn't like it or feel it is updated fast enough than that user should simply move on. To me, a user asking for an ETA is extremely rude.

when in doubt refer to video!

hey it's the new guy again the noob the scrub lol,I have a question.I see under the download thread that your latest version of this ROM is February 20th 2015,that is the rom version I'm running.is there a newer version out that I'm missing,and no I'm not asking for a ETA.JUST ASKING IF IM UP TO DATE,Thanks so much love your work and love the rom

choppy video
Video is choppy is some instances. Facebook video is choppy, in web page video is choppy. YouTube is good. Thank you for you hard work, it really feels much smoother and quicker than a stock.

Awesome ROM!
I searched for it in the thread and nothing came up so I just want to confirm - are all S-pen functionality retained? And if I wanted to go back to stock firmware, is there anything special I should know?

Location services issues
Hi, I loved this rom because it's smooth, stable and the battery life it's insane. I have a problem though when trying to use applications that require using GPS, for example, I downloaded a weather app and for some reason it can't find my location. I activated location services as battery saver on settings. Any tip to fix this? Thank you!
