Difference between stock and custom rom. topic

I have had had several "custom rom flash addictions" to various android models.

I have not been flashing on my Xperia Z1 since i have always have had a feeling there is a bigger risk of breaking the phone.

How big of a difference does a custom rom for the Xperia Z1 make?

Does it get alot smoother and faster?

Cycles between on and off when charging topic

Hi Guys

Hopefully someone can help. took my phone out of my pocket this morning to find it off. Thought the battery died but when I plugged the charger in and it just starts up till the Sony logo (and red led) then crashes, continuously. It hasn't stopped doing that. Tried plugging it into the pc to run Flashtool but it doesn't have time to recognise the device before it shuts down again. Reset button, soft reset and Hard reset have not worked.

Please help someone, need a guide or instructions here.

[Q] what's the difference between carriers versions of the same Lollipop? topic

I've got an unlocked gsm h8 that I'm using on the german o2 network. When I bought the phone, I thought that "unlocked" is the equivalent of "unbranded". However, after the Lollipop update I noticed that I got the T-Mobile version of the OTA, 4.19.111.2. Indeed, the CID of the phone is T-MOB101.

There is no obvious bloat on the phone, unless you count fm radio. But perhaps I just don't know what is there from the Telekom and what's from HTC. Moreover, other carriers, for example O2 seem to have the "higher" ROM version numbers, 4.20.xxx.x. What is the difference betwern them? Is there any point on spending time and effort to switch the CID and convert from T-Mobile to O2 or any other version? Is the "truly unbranded" version 4.16.xxx.x any different? They all seem to be Android 5.0.1, but then what do those numbers in ROM versions stand for?

[Q] Unmuting when switching between profiles topic

Hi there,

I'm running cm11 on my nexus 5 and have a few slight teething problems.

I've noticed when setting up profiles I have a home and night. When I enter the night profile I put the phone mode into mute, when in home I put the phone to normal and set the ringtone volume to 7.

Unfortunately I've noticed when it switches to the home profile, the phome stays muted until I press up on the vol key.

Is there any way to fix this?

I've trie flashing back to the snapshot red version of cm11, I don't really like lolipop that much as the latest version for the nexus 5 is a bit buggy in my experience.

Can any one help me?

Many thanks

I have big problems to customise my Note 4 after the lolliflop upgrade (so far it's a downgrade for me!). I'm in need of an app that offers the possibility to switch between the interruption modes pretty easily. Are there any apps out there which can actually do this?

[Q] Switch back and forth between VZW and AT&T sim topic

Currently I have a Nexus 6 which I cut my sim and have working on the VZW network.
I also have a company phone (S4) on the AT&T network. (I would also cut this sim and us an adaptor)
While traveling out of the states there are times when I would like to put my work sim in my N6. (Never pay for international data on my VZW plan)
Will I have any problems going back and forth between the two carriers?

Thanks
