[Completed] New Phone

I know this is stupid...and i may not get any replies over here...
but still giving it a try...
My budget is around 20k (300$), and i needed a phone which i can give it a future update as well. Since Android L is gonna come too, i would really want it in my phone. I'm currently using Huawei Y 200, and it pretty much sucks...! (NO CUSTOM ROMS MADE FOR IT )
so guys please help me out here!!!!!!!!

Hi there,
I'd recommend asking that question in the off-topic section of XDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/off-topic
Since it doesn't really regard any form of development or needing a phone to be fixed, it is probably best placed there.
You will find lots of keen XDA users who I'm sure will input and tell you what they think.
Good luck!
P.S: I'd go for the Moto G

[Completed] Bluetooth not switching on on new Android boxes....

Hello there,
My brother bought a few Android boxes similar in spec to these models.......here
He bought quite a few of them rooted with his own branding on them and had his own firmware sent to him.
I was wanting to use one for XBMC which works great and for a retro games machine and this is where i am having a problem, i bought a g910 gamepad to use on this android box and switched on blue tooth but the switch immediately switches back to off.
I remember having this problem a couple of times with custom roms on the phones i had and it was usually sorted out with a fix from a developer.
I am hoping the Chinese suppliers that made these machine will send him my brother a fix or an updated firmware but there has been no reply back yet.
I would like to ask you gurus here if it is possible to fix this problem myself?
Could i use root explorer or something to repair the blue tooth problem?.......the firmware is currently on 4.4.2
I would appreciate any help.
Thanks:good:

Hi!
This is a tricky thread. Its kinda vague to be honest. You've said devices "similar" to....custom firmware someone created...etc.
You may need to be far more specific for decent advice, and obviously using the factory firmware may be your only solution. The custom firmware obviously has bugs.
All that said, here is where you should ask about devices that don't have their own section....
>*Android Development and Hacking*>*Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Good luck! ?

Cheers!

[Completed] Can someone help root ivew i785q tablet? aka hipstreet i8

I have a tablet I cannot root. It is branded hipstreet i8 but is also listed as an iview i785q. I have been searching and can only find listings on where to buy it. I have tried every tutorial and app i could find still no luck. Also I am interested in installing windows 8 on it. I have the android version they also sell a windows 8 version but they were out of stock lol Plus its more fun doing it if its possible to.

Here's the thing, not every device has support fit a root exploit. And low end or uncommon brands generally fall into that category. Chances are there's no way to do it.
You can however ask for support here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2259645
Good luck

[Completed] EE Harrier Mini (Benq T47)

Please can someone help?
I'm looking for a rom for my Harrier mini from EE UK or as i found out actually is a Benq T47 and no matter hard i tried seems nowhere i can find anything for this phone. the rom the phone is using although on setting is being stated as a lollipop version is not even close as it does not look as the lollipop i have on my S4 or on my Htc, and the one the phone is having is lacking on many things. like there is no gallery, no "My files" and the settings of the phone are poor. and is shame because although that is a cheap device believe me is very good comparing it with both of my other phones.
thank you in advance anyone that will try to find to help me

[Completed] Lenovo p70

Hey!
Newb here! I just got Lenovo p70 for the sake of battery and low price tbh. And i realized i just hate custom the launcher lenovo made, not only it looks iOS pretentious, it's actually freaking uncomfortable and i knew better when i had my nexus 7 tablet. I'm pretty sure the answers to my wonders somewhere here but i haven't been able to google anything good enough and i figured i would just ask someone experienced. So please bear with me and bother to answer a few questions:
How do i flash stock android without sd card?
Is every phone compatible with every launcher (except for custom apps)?
Where do i get stock android and what software do i need to flash it?
Can i get pc-like tabs in Chrome on mobile?
Thank you in advance!
