    searching for a new device/carrier

    I recently became fed up with an old device and service and made the decision to upgrade. However I cannot seem to find a carrier that will give this device the time of day. It seems this device is not VoLTE capable (even though apparently some variants are, and I have a toggle for it in the...

    is quad-core enough in 2021

    I My current device is rocking a mediatek mt6737 and feels a bit sluggish. My current carrier is custom rom friendly but frankly the roms available for this device are all missing one thing or another for daily driver use, either bluetooth not working correctly or MMS, so I am stuck with stock...

    Looking for a suggestion on a new device

    I recently lost my trusty old ZTE Force (which I absolutely loved for its sturdy design and a couple of really stable custom roms). It had a good run, but was showing its age. I had retired it to the position of Mp3 player/knockaround device (no data/phone service). But since it is gone I need...

    Root No Exfat support?

    I had a side project I was working on, and was going to use my Desire 510 until Sunshine tried to charge me for s-off (Boooo! - i know devs need money too but I was displeased when I saw that :) ) So I have to default to my broken-ish One SV (because it is already s-off). The biggest problem is...

    Accessories I need a tip where to get misc hardware (micro usb)

    I have a few devices with broken charge ports and I want to replace them. The usual suspects show no replacements for a generic port @ a reasonable price. 2 of these devices are Bluetooth speakers and just need a new Port soldered on ( I meant to get to it later and then lost the original)...

    So I got my device and have spent a little time mucking around with it. I usually will spend some time @ the stock config, just to see how things are different after the modding begins. And of.course part of that is the benchmark. I follow performance over benchmarking score, but I do expect...

    Fastboot flash boot <filename> right? Everytime I try to flash a kernel, whether it is the sickle kernels in the sticky or any other ones. Now I'm not positive (I've been wrong before about this stuff) but I'm sure that every kernel I've tried is for my variant, but I get bootloop or no...

    A problem thats not a problem (boost logo screen)

    It's just irritating, not a problem but I wonder if this is happening to anyone else. When the Boost logo load screen pops up it stutters a bit before the logos resolve into the 4G logo. It doesn't cause any performance problems that I can see, but the simple fact that it hiccups like that is...

    This is more of a hardware question, but it might fit here

    What I would like to do is link 3 devices with blue tooth. Specifically to use a tablet as a screen running a game (on an emulator like jnes) and use a phone (2 actually) as control pads. I think it should be possible but I'm not quite sure how to accomplish the feat. Thanks in advance.
