    Help How to transfer data from my N5 to my Galaxy S7?

    Smart Switch mobile to mobile is not working-it just sticks at connecting. I'm pretty sure I have granted all necessary permissions. I downloaded smart switch for PC and there doesn't appear to be any way to get my N5 data onto my PC. What else can I try? eta: My N5 is rooted with stock...

    S7 - worth the $$?

    My nexus 5 has served me well but now it won't charge through the port so I had to buy a wireless charger and it takes forever to charge, not to mention how inconvenient this is when I'm on the go. Everything I'm looking at is missing a feature or gets bad reviews on a feature that I really...

    need help with gapps

    I gave my son my old gnex and he wanted to play pokemon go on it so I rooted it and flashed cm. I thought I was downloading the 4.4.4 version but it turned out to be the 5.xx version. Not a big deal but I downloaded and installed the gapps for the 4.4.4. So some google apps aren't working right...

    Having trouble getting the battery to charge

    I've tried different cords with no success. Sometimes I plug it in and it says fully charged in 5 or 6 hours or whatever,and sometimes it says twice that or even more than a day.

    Root installed the new DU but now gapps won't install

    I tried using the banks gapps at the DU site first and the installation failed. Then I tried the old PA Gapps I had installed the last time and they didn't work either. Any other ideas? I'm downloading the DU gapps now but I'm worried they won't work either. I did a clean install. eta: I...

    Root Why is my screen being recorded

    And how do I stop it? I. Didn't initiate it and don't really even know how to. But I can't make it stop without rebooting. I have no idea what is causing or starting it. It just shows up in my notification bar and says recording screen with a camera icon next to it.

    Root Can't send MMS since flashing newest DU rom (fixed, I think)

    any ideas? is there a better phone radio or is that even what MMS uses? My data signal is fine-I can get online with it. My phone signal works-I can call out and receive calls. I can send SMS but just not MMS. I tried to send one last night and tonight it was still trying to send so I deleted...

    Root walmart app-problem after flashing to du

    I use the app to scan my receipts for the savings catcher thing. But since flashing the newest DU it won't scan them. I can still add them manually but I prefer to scan. I checked and permissions are set on for camera so I'm not sure what else to try. I also cleared the defaults in my camera app...

    Root Problem flashing the new DU (got it)

    So i did a clean flash of the latest stable build. Then the keyboard wouldn't work so I downloaded that and installed it and now I can't get titanium backup to download.
