The options are
Either Note 4
Or
Wait a bit and go for Galaxy S6

Note 4 is the best phone at the moment .... but since S6 is just around the corner better wait for it maybe it has something better to offer

Lolz... without any offence 2014 was the worst year for samsung because its bread and butter Galaxy series got flopped bcoz of poor response to S4 and S5... mainly bcoz of extra ordinary success of Iphone 6 whose more than 7.5 crores pcs have been sold that comes out to be more than 8 lac per day since launch.. In medium price range Huawei and Lenovo took the piece of cake... Now S6 will decide fate and future of Samsung and its do or die situation for Samsung right now.....

People compare this but for me iPhone is not a competetor for android. I prefer android and my comparisons are between androids. Iphone is not even in consideration.

Read and follow the XDA thread link posted by silver knife. It was tested by me a few months ago. On XDA, Xperia_rebel and codelover guides are very good for honor 3C custom roms. try MIUI rom. In my case, i had battery draining issues with this. I hope they have fixed that now.

I get a feeling that you will brick phone during the process. Working on Huawei is a little tricky. Read the instructions 5 times atleast and don't forget to backup EFS.

i have lenovo s850. cleared the app cache data etc. factory reset too... removed gmail account and logged in again.. no solution..

any ideas?

axe.effect (axe.effect) 2015-02-20 15:25:47 +0500 #439

@nfssaad

Problem both on WiFi and mobile data?.

Use mobogenie instead of play store. Easiest solution.

@roms
Any easy solution for above?. In my phone, i login gmail from YouTube app and it gets fixed.
@nfssaad
Mobogenie Updated link. This is an alternative to play store.

Well got bored of usual lollipop android on Nexus 5. Bored should read as problems with memory leakages which closed applications by itself after two days of usage and handset had to be restarted. So wanted a stable ROM. Went for Cyanogen Mod Snapshot 11. Which is stable. Unlocked the bootloader which formatted the whole phone. Than rooted and installed custom recovery. Flashed the Cyanogen Mod ROM. After that I needed tap to wake functionality similar to LG G2. So went on to install elementalx kernel for Cyanogen. Flashed it and installed framework for elemental. Enabled the modules like greenify and gravity box, and voila... Nexus 5 is as stable as it should be. Battery timing is much better than **** hole lollipop.
