[Unlimited Data] Did you know?

Did you know that there is basically no more alternate upgrade for unlimited data users? I called into VZW to buy a new device on one of my three lines. My line has the unlimited data, my others do not. I was told that I would lose my unlimited data if I bought a device not at retail price. Of course I said "I know that on my line, but i want to on another line." i was then shocked to hear that VZW has a system where it can see when a device was purchased , if from them, and how it was purchased. If the system sees that a device was purchased on a 2 year or device payment plan, and then transferred to another line, that line will lose unlimited data without notice. Again, this surprised the heck out of me. Seems really shady. I called in a second time and it was confirmed to me again. What are YOUR thoughts on this? Even if you are not on an unlimited data, what are your thoughts from a customer perspective? I do not know by the way if this also applies to data promotions back in the day like my mom has. Personally the lollipop update kinda screwed my phone, so i was going to go S6 Edge+. Thanks guys.

Know of any ways to use an Xbox One controller on the Nexus Player?

I currently have my Nexus Player rooted with LolliRock on and I've gotten the PS4 controller to work with Sixaxis. However, I don't actually like the feel of the PlayStations controllers as much as I do Xbox One. I've looked into it and found out that the only app that will read an Xbox One controller is USB/BT Joystick, though it's not in the playstore anymore and the apks I've found crashed when opened or just wasn't the real file. Is there another way or another app that can read Xbox One?

I want know the band selection of SM-G9200

Hi,

I got SM-G9200 (Hong-kong S6 model) in south Korea.

But, I don't know the band selection method of SM-G9200, so I can not use it in Korea.

In the previous model S5(SM-G9008V) that I have, it may enter in the following way.
*#0011# -> Back -> Q -> 0000 -> UE Setting -> Protocol...

However, S6 does not operate in the above method.
Please share to me a band selection of SM-G9200 model.

BR,
sookeun

[APP] CurrentCurrent - know your current current

CurrentCurrent displays the battery charging current in the notification area.

It's a lightweight service which is started on boot (if you decide to run it on boot).

I made this because my Nexus 6 running Android M refused to charge in Quick Charge mode and due to a bug it discharged in a couple of hours. Now I see what's up at least. Maybe it's useful for someone else.
I'll think about a proper icon in case people use this.

How do I know if I should replace the battery of my htc ville?

I have a htc one S (since 2012) with cyanogenmod and after 13 hours and 1.5 (!) hours of screen time, my phone is done for.
I already have bought a second battery and watched some youtube video on how to replace.
Still I do not know if I really should take the risk. Am i chasing ghosts and shadows or do I have a good chance of improving the power circle of my device?
Some betterbatterystats which seem to be fine (software-side) as far as i can judge:

Making a fake spec phone know its own specs

Bought a 7" phone off aliexpress a few months ago, it was supposed to have 8 cores (had 4), was supposed to have 4gb RAM (had 512mb), was supposed to have 32gb internal storage, had 2gb.
Now, i've had the complaint up with the seller and they proposed a refund large enough for me to accept - and i get to keep the tablet.
My problem: It pretends to have the promised specs and this results in a number of errors, mainly connected to the RAM always being full and never automatically wiping since it believes it's not full, and since the phone thinks it has all the storage in the world, it always starts downloading apps and such before i get the information halfway about it being full.

So, i want the phone to know itself. I've successfully rooted the device, so i actually want to keep the rom, i just want it to know its true limitations.
Can i change the perceived specifications of an android device? (I've already tried to get the seller to help, but they - despite the sizable refund - pretend they think the device it up to its specs =/ )

Digital hugs to anyone who can help me out or make me understand why it's a lost cause...
