OK, so if an Android device is free of all Problems, it is jut not available yet. Some of the problems are related with the Software, which is Android, sometimes the problem relates with the OEM, the manufacturer of the device which can be anyone, since Android is running on more than 82 OEMs. But if that particular device is a Flagship from any OEM, then experiencing such common problems on it is quite teasing, I mean a person spend so much amount on a device and what is doing most of his time is searching for the Solutions of some stupid problems he is facing, like I was stuck on the Null IMEI problem on Galaxy S3, thanks to XDA I somehow got over it, but most people don’t.
And if that device is a beauty like HTC One M8, then facing such problems on it is quite something that can force the user to throw and break the device.

Yet there are those who face these common problems and we are here to give them a proper solution. Let’s go through the Problems and their solutions.
