Send Feedback via Nexus 4 and tell them you are "Missing Marshmallow :("



Yeah, much likely it won't have any effect. But what is to loose? 15 Seconds? Just go (stock android, 5.1.1) to:

Settings -> About Phone -> Send Feedback about this device

and send them a short message like "Missing Marshmallow :("

Miracles can happen :angel:

Group messaging issue - can't tell if it's my phone or theirs



So here's what is going on:
I had an iPhone, iMessage enabled. Moved to a Note 5 and continued my group text with 2 other iPhone users and one Android user. I don't remember specifically when I got the phone if everyone was responding or not, but I believe they were.
Somewhere along the lines one of the users stopped responding and a day or two later sent a message to us saying he received all of our texts one morning about 3 am in a group. Ever since then messaging has been a problem.
I can send group messages to the 4 of us, 2 of them get it, and this one iPhone user can't. Tested just me, him and the other iphone user - same issue.
He's tried factory resetting the phone, a new SIM card, updating the OS and probably a couple other things.
I've tried removing my devices from iMessage, calling apple to ensure I'm removed, even tried texting from Pinger as a test. It all indicates his phone is causing issues.
However, last night he shut off some sort of wi-fi assist where I think it uses both cell and wi-fi to send data (I think I read this feature was enabled by default on the new IOS9)
That seemed to work but then I noticed I wasn't getting the OTHER iPhone's text messages, but he was getting mine.
Went to another group text without the original iphone user in it but the second iphone user in it, and he and I can text just fine.

So basically, as it stands right now, I want to pull my hair out. I can't tell if this issue is on my end since I switched from an iPhone to an Android, or if its on their end. I had an issue a couple years ago when Is witched off my iphone where I didn't get anyone's iMessages in a group text - that was at the time when Apple's whole deal with contacts and iMessages came out so I fell into that problem.

I have no idea what to look at, how to test this any more and it's really actually infuriating. It's 2015. I should be able to send a text message to two or three people at one time without it causing issues.

Also - is there a way to shut off group messages as an MMS? I think that might be part of the problem but I don't know what I'm looking for.

Thank you.

Hard Brick? Tell Me It Aint So!



Long story short -

Tmobile G4, tried to root it, bricked; authentication error #11.

Got it to boot up to the download mode, followed this guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/g...kdz-t3107848); got the Sever Connection error, everyone said that was fine and to let it run... I did.

The LG tool got to 100%, the phone turned off and well... it's never turned back on.

Windows gives me a chime when I plug it in but nothing happens on the screen, I plug it into the outlet and it wont boot up, remove the battery just incase, still no dice.

Did I totally kill this phone?



Can someone try moonlight game streaming on Fire TV 2015 and tell me how it preforms?



Can it do 1080p60fps and what is the latency?



Can anyone tell me how to change Mac address in RedMi 2 Prime?



I want to change Mac address of RedMi 2 Prime mobile as my company Wi-Fi access is restricted to few Mac addresses only.

I rooted my mobile and tried BusyBox and Terminal...it didn't work!

This YouTube video suggests to edit the file .mac.cob in /efs/wifi..but this mobiles doesn't have the folder efs in Device...!!

This does have a folder wifi in Device/etc...and it has a file WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini.It has Mac in Hex format.
The code for WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini is available in Google Source


Lines 34 to 39
# Assigned MAC Addresses - This will be used until NV items are in place
# Each byte of MAC address is represented in Hex format as XX
Intf0MacAddress=000AF58989FF
Intf1MacAddress=000AF58989FE
Intf2MacAddress=000AF58989FD
Intf3MacAddress=000AF58989FC
