[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vicolodo:
I think you are right but i still have a doubt:

the following is a completely different case, but:

my friend has galaxy s3 (it has ICS and good hardware, i think...), i asked him to call my pc (using SKYPE):

the call quality was very very poor;

then i asked him to call me with his pc (always using SKYPE): the call quality has improved

i thought galaxy s3 was a powerful device, why call quality was so bad?

could be that video chat applications for android like TANGO, SKYPE, OOVOO, etc can not provide a good quality on android smartphones because they are necessarily general, not expressly designed for a specific device...

in this way , they cant take advantage of the specific harware, that could provide higher performances...

instead, FACETIME, expressly designed for ipad/iphone can take advantage of its features....

but this is only a doubt, i am not a technician....
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arryhariyadi:
because no doubt, iPhone is way better than All android device ever made. Sorry to say, its fact, we need to accept.

Exactly because this launcher wasn't designed for other phones other than the Xperia X8/W8. This launcher is not ported and is for entertainment purposes only :)

Good news, thanks for the post. Not using JB at the moment but I'm sure I will at some point. I have no Sprint signal at work so this app is essential for me.

hi guys anyone here who can make a Lakers theme for our OB? I'm 2 years here in the community and I'll be really happy to have this kind of theme.

or maybe anyone who can post some links related to this. Thanks guys
[LG Optimus Black] andrewbadge:
You do know that making a theme is no easy job to do :) you can look for launchers that support icon substitution. I know I saw some basketball themes for go launcher.
[HTC One X] joeyh51:
Just wondering if this was a common occurance? When my phone is on a lower volume at work, I've noticed when I get messages the notification sound doesn't always play. The phone still vibrates and I've made sure its loud enough to hear, it just doesn't play until I restart the phone.

Anyone else getting this?

Currently everything is stock apart from using Nova launcher. (haven't had it long enough to start playing with ROMs :P )
[HTC One X] Vcek:
ive noticed this sometimes, but i think changing it from the message/emails settings will fix the issue
[LG Revolution] Kenpachi 91:
Those with this "awesome" phone known as the LG Revolution. How much longer do you have until your upgrade? Will you be staying on board with LG or go over to a different company? If so, what phone currently has your attention?

My upgrade is on 1/28/13 and seriously can't wait for it. As my first Android phone, this Revolution really did leave a bad impression. I doubt I'll stick with LG once I'm eligible for an upgrade. The GS3 has caught my eye. I'm lucky enough to be able to mess with it from time to time at my job. It's going to be a bit weird since all the years I have been on Verizon, all my phones were LG.
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
I am up in February. This is/was not my first android phone but my overall experience with Android has not been the most ideal. I use my phone for 3 basic things, Phone calls, Texting, and Email. Android fails for me at 2 of these. Random black screen of death and a constant error message when it checks my email.

I'm bailing on Android and going to give WP8 a shot.
[LG Revolution] Kenpachi 91:
Well hopefully that works out for you. I'm fine with Android really. It does want I want it to. It's just I don't have the proper device lol. I might have suffered more if I didn't have Broken Out 2.0.1 on this phone. LG's UI is simply horrendous.
[LG Revolution] KaneOfMars:
I warrantied out of my Revo about 6 months ago into a Bionic. Have yet to have an issue with it. I'll never go LG again ... even If the rumors are true about them making a Nexus device.

Sent from my Bionic w/ Unofficial CM10
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
My first phone was an HTC Eris and it was a great little phone. The stock android sucked, the ROMS were great, email worked but other issues existed, LG phone, while my hardware is generally stable, Android will randomly go into a black screen of death usually during a phone call making so I have to pull the battery to end the call. My phone is rooted stock, running an alternative home. I tried BO, it and my phone did not agree, it was always unstable for me, happens no biggie. I am older now and much less patient then I was a few years ago. I expect it to work, the error message when checking my corporate email annoys me. It has almost no documentation on the web for the error and no one has found a fix, Invalid userID or PWD but then if you hit refresh it successfully checks and downloads the email. I think WP8 will suit me fine, if I don't like it, I will change back... nothing ventured nothing gained.
[LG Revolution] Kenpachi 91:
Yeah I hate that random black screen I get sometimes during a call (I thought that was only me lol). Not sure how I would feel going to Motorola though to be honest, but it's most likely better than what LG has been doing. Well WP8 certainly is something different, I've seen less than a handful of people use Windows Phone.
[LG Revolution] link0612:
I have another full year on this thing. =/ I'm looking at selling the phone online and getting a different one, though. It's soured me on LG products, generally. Using LG's support network was horrible, and the phone itself is just too quirky.
[LG Revolution] I.M.famous XMAN:
well, I'm here for the long haul. Just upgraded in Dec, so i got a while. :) Hopefully PG can fix the pink screen issue in cm9. iirc, other than that its good to go. Can't wait.
[LG Revolution] TheRandom1:
How do you warranty out of this piece of garbage? I've had mine since December and have already had to have it replaced twice for the same issue...and it's starting with the same symptoms again. (It'll start slowing down and acting goofy, not receiving texts, then it'll stop booting)

If I can't get out of it, I'm stuck with it until August before VZW will let me upgrade on contract although I'm eyeballing Craigslist for anything that's better...
[LG Revolution] KaneOfMars:
Just tell them it does it in safe mode and you want to try something else. As long as the phone is still under warranty, all you have to pay for is a new battery and battery door. Some have been able to push the issue and get into a galaxy nexus or RAZR. Usually they offer a tbolt, charge, or bionic.
[LG Revolution] TheRandom1:
That someone was me... I warranty swapped out to a Galaxy Nexus and it cost 53 bucks for the extended battery and door. So psyched!
[LG Revolution] Tomn8tr:
Good enough for now

I have two of them and they work fine for me. I'm holding off to see what new models are coming (Galaxy S4 etc), and I am going to have to buy my new phones un-subsidized because I don't intend to lose my unlimited data. I use tablets for the fun stuff and the Revolution for calls. The Revolution phones my wife and I have are working fine and rooted. The only problems I have had is that both of our batteries failed at the same time (bad batch I think). I jut bought cheap OEMs off of eBay and moved on.
[LG Revolution] antiwesley:
I escaped from the nightmare this past week.

After three replacements, I was able to get a RAZR. :)

My trick was that I called up and told them I wouldn't accept another Revolution.

I insisted that I wanted to lateral into something else, or I would demand that my early termination fees be waived.

The gentleman asked what I wanted, and I said a RAZR if it's possible.

"Not a problem!"

and the rest went from there. :)
[LG Revolution] Bait-Fish:
2/13/13 for me. Not too long, really. My main concern is keeping my unlimited data whole keeping the other two on the family plan happy. Not sure if that's going to be possible . . . Thinking about Samsung. Nexus is compelling.

Anyone here likely to spring for the upcoming LG Nexus device rumored. I'm betting not! ;):eek:
[LG Revolution] Kenpachi 91:
I'm done with LG. Unless they release a phone with an unlocked bootloader and stock Android. Which is impossible. Samsung seems to be the company to go with atm.
[LG Revolution] ozymandiaz:
They are doing the next nexus, so that should have an unlocked bootloader and stock Android... Unless I misunderstand what all that means.
[LG Revolution] The Kraken!:
And it won't matter who makes it. People will develop for a Nexus. It is supposed to be based on the Optimus G, which sounds like a winner, except possibly for battery life.
[LG Revolution] smokedkill:
Be warned that when you upgrade, if you currently have unlimited data, you will lose it if you take the subsidized price with a new contract. If you pay full price and don't sign a new contract, you get to keep unlimited data. If you go that route, there's really no reason waiting on getting a new device because it will cost the same either way .
[LG Revolution] Spectre1206:
I wish I was still under warranty. I have the insurance but don't want to pay for the replacement since my REVO went into the river for a few seconds. Works great still. Hate the fact that I bought many accessories for a phone I want to switch out now lol. Buying the Nexus for the wife. Will see if she wants to switch lol
[LG Revolution] Kenpachi 91:
I'm well aware that I will lose my unlimited data. I like Android, it's just that this phone from LG has really been a subpar experience for me as my first smartphone. If I have to lose my unlimited data to have a good android device, so be it. Gotta love how Verizon thinks.
[LG Revolution] TheRandom1:
Just be careful with the GNex. It does not like aftermarket chargers for some reason.
[LG Revolution] The Kraken!:
Just to briefly revisit my post about the Nexus 4...I just read that it will not have 4g lte...face + palm. Seriously, wtf?
[LG Revolution] TheRandom1:
But it will have better battery life.
[LG Revolution] capt730:
I am wondering if they will even make a cdma version compatible with Verizon or Sprint.

A non 4g lte phone is pointless for the US variant.
[LG Revolution] TheRandom1:
How do you figure? The biggest complaint most users seem to have is the bad battery life on 4G phones...so they've fixed that issue. (seemingly)
[LG Revolution] Bait-Fish:
Android Police did a follow-up article which covered most of our questions. I wouldn't hold my breath for a CDMA LTE version.
[LG Revolution] capt730:
If I am paying Verizon for 4G LTE service I would expect a 4G LTE phone. Since there isn't even that spec on the phone, the point is moot I guess. Plus if battery life is an issue, I believe you can toggle 4G off (at least on the Revo you can).

That being said, since ATT and TMobile have miniscule 4G LTE coverage, the HSPA+ (also known as 3G+, not really 4G) LG Nexus should be just fine for them.
[LG Revolution] Kenpachi 91:
Even though there isn't a Verizon version mentioned. I still wouldn't get it. It has no expandable memory (which is one I'm thankful for this Revolution by giving me a 16GB card for my next phone lol), no 4G LTE, and it's from LG. I'm sorry LG, even though it's a nexus. You're on my craplist. It's going to take a miracle to get me to buy an LG smartphone again.
[LG Revolution] The Kraken!:
I just bought a Droid 4. It is scheduled to get here on the 7th.

Honestly, for me the Revo hasn't been a terrible phone. Lots of storage, expansion card slot, fast 4g, good screen, all & all a decent first smart phone for me. Most of the problems I've had I must admit I likely caused. I never had screen freezes or vibes of death that I recall until I replaced the ROM. And even then that behavior mostly went away when I cut back a bit on what was installed. I think its main weakness might be the relatively small amount of ram.

But for me personally, what's making me switch is something that would drive me crazy with most phones; the amount of screen realestate the soft keyboard consumes. I'm a writer and I use the phone surprisingly frequently to hash out scenes and ideas, and that little sliver of a view of what I've written (often times a couple of lines ABOVE my current point of progress...in other words, what I'm actively writing is not visible) is truly infuriating. The Droid 4 should have a big advantage there.
[LG Revolution] The Kraken!:
So I have now activated the Droid 4. I felt a little sadness leaving the Revo after posting a bit with you folks and putting a fair amount of effort into getting it set up "just so."

Then I realized I could still use the Revo for everything but the phone functionality. I'd expected to be locked out. I guess I am still able to use it because there's still a Sim card inside (the d4 takes a micro Sim, so there was no need to remove the Revo's Sim).

So, I can still use it as a media player/organizer/alarm clock/toy/wi-fi device! In fact, I'm posting this from the Revo now as my cat sits in my lap purring away, rubbing her face all over the Revo's lower left corner.

And I gotta say, despite the fact that the D4 runs quite a bit smoother and has that great keyboard, it's not 100% superior. The Revo's screen is significantly better.

Sent from my Broken Out Revo. :)

Man, I've gotten long-winded here lately. Sorry about that.
[LG Revolution] pawdog:
I have 2 Revo's one is used as my home internet paid for wifi tethered and unlimited. So I won't be replacing it until it dies or we get some DSL in our area. The other is my road phone which is used as a phone but mainly as the Hotspot for my Galaxy Tab 7 Plus. The 7 inch tablet has replaced the phone as a smart device for me. I'll probably put my money on the next generation 7 inch tablet instead of lusting after phones.
[LG Revolution] Kenpachi 91:
Today is my last day with this phone!
[LG Revolution] Bait-Fish:
Congrats. Hoping to hold out for a 32GB GS4 personally. Hope I don't suffocate.
[LG Revolution] rybussell:
same here

Been free to upgrade for two months... Trying to be patient! Rumors say the S4 sales start tomorrow... One can only hope.
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
Samsung announced this morning that the 16gig is available for 199 with upgrade contract.

I have been able to upgrade since February. Waiting for a HTC 0ne, if that does not happen, I am getting the Lumia 928 for 50 bucks (dual core 1.5 with a gig of ram for 50 bucks...) WP8 is far more efficient with its hardware and is hella smooth. Android while nice, lays on top of hardware and never truly integrates leaving it with screen lag and other retarded issues like VOD.
[LG Revolution] rybussell:
I've actually heard rumors that the HTC One is on the way to Verizon, sometime this summer..

A lot of people like HTC and they seem to get a lot of dev attention..
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
Heard the same rumors. It is why I am holding till late August.
[LG Revolution] I.M.famous XMAN:
That's when I'm due for an upgrade in August. I'm looking at the HTC one. The wifey wants GS4. I'm hoping we can get the vanilla HTC one. That would be sweet.
[LG Revolution] Bait-Fish:
Well, in holding out for a 32GB GS4, the One may be an option. The aluminum casing of the Asus Transformer Prime's poor WiFi and BlueTooth has me wary of encasing antennae in a metal body though. Guess I'll lurk HTC before making a decision, since I have time.
[LG Revolution] Bait-Fish:
...an unfortunate accident has hastened my departure! :eek: Don't walk around half inebriated, recovering from the day's desert heat at the lake with your Revo tucked in the waistband of pocketless swim trunks. The digitizer will not survive the fall to concrete.

So, I eat my words and log into Swappa, buy a slightly used 16gb GS4 and keep my unlimited data plan going. Yes, there are methods to keep the plan while getting a subsidized phone, but this way I have no worries.

A caveat, however. Upgrading others on our family plan at the VZW corporate store would change me too, off unlimited. The salesperson advised me that updating them at a 3rd party retailer, such as Best Buy, will not affect the entire plan, and me. He admitted it's a loophole at present. So that's what we did, the same evening.

If anyone is interested, there's been a lengthy (and repetitive) discussion on how to keep the grandfathered unlimited plan on The Verizon GS4 General forum.

While I will no longer be using the Revo as a phone, I am considering Servers Ultimate (trial) to use the phone s's a server at home. Nothing fancy, but possible utility from a low powered device. Having trouble justifying an $8 app (Pro) when I can only think of a couple things to run, FTP, HTTP...
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
Because we all have had this phone for years and want something that is not slow, vod's, runs a more current OS with all the bells and whistles with running at garbage slow speeds. If you want people to use your rom then make one from scratch. For me I do not want to try a rom based off a rom, based off a rom. Not a great selling point. Get the stock ZV9, create the ROM from scratch. Look at how others list their roms, try and follow that format. For the love of god list a change list. Thats programing, rom building, everything 101. A bunch of tweaks is not an exceptable answer. I want to know what tweaks and why.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2207393
[LG Revolution] Bait-Fish:
For me, two things. The first, yet final, nail in the coffin, was the broken digitizer. The phone still functions so I am not going to spend $30 on a new digitizer for a phone worth less than $80.

Second, while I have had good times with it, typically after restoring to stock and/or fresh ROM, it has been a big pain and very frustrating since late last year. I have refreshed it extensively, but this phone doesn't want to behave with all the apps and functions I want. Missing most phone calls despite trying to answer it at first ring and taking three minutes to get a webpage open are just not acceptable. Last week it literally took one minute from pressing the call button on a contact to actual ringing on the line, horrible.

I commend your effort and welcome it wholly. I am one to wait a time for early adopters work the bugs out and learn about whatever process I am going to attempt. That's also why I haven't tried yours out. Add in that this phone won't be really used as a phone now...

Having had the GS4 for a few days now, I couldn't be happier. Where my Revo would chug, the GS4 flies. It's fast, responsive, and working.
[LG Revolution] :
Word....why keep using the Revo when in a month or so I can upgrade to a Samsung Galaxy S4 with T Mobile for $100 and $20 a month cheaper.....doesn't make sense.

I agree with the previous post as well. My Revo despite all my efforts using different ROMs, applying tweaks, using Advanced Task Killer, removing bloat, freezing certain apps, factory resets, etc, etc, etc I just cannot get this this to not craaaawwwwwllllllll like a snail after just a few days. It just cannot handle having a few apps downloaded. Anything past stock and it just crawls....terrible.....
[LG Revolution] happaflapp:
One more month! Then I can finally kick this phone to the curb. It has soured me on all LG phones. If the latest update would of came alone a year ago. I don't think the damage would of been as bad. There were times in the past where the revolutions sluggishness had rendered it useless. I am done with LG mobile products. Samsung or HTC for me next.

I've been playing around recently with trying to root this thing. It seems that 2.3.6 is resistant to rooting. At least to me skill level it is.

Anyway. Cool forum. I will be poking around here a bit more now.
[LG Revolution] Athletichunta:
This phone is slow and has no support. Wifi does not work in break out either. Horrible. Will be switching.
[LG Revolution] Kenpachi 91:
Been using the Galaxy s4 for a little over a month now and wow it is so much better than the LG Revolution. The phone is light, fast, and does not suffer from VODs. There's also a choice of ROMs to choose from. I don't miss the Revolution at all.
[LG Revolution] Bait-Fish:
Same experience. I haven't ventured past stock rooted though. Looking forward to Synergy ROM.

It's so much quicker. I've loaded all the apps and more that were on the Revo and it hasn't complained. Only gripe would be 3 GB free remaining, heh. It's a little slippery, and being bigger, sometimes have to really reach across with a finger :)
[LG Revolution] Kenpachi 91:
I had the phone phone for two years already. That was a long to years of 2.3.6. LG needs to step their game up if they want me back as a customer.
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
I have been up for renewal since January but I spent all my money new furniture and two week trip coming up in September. If I upgrade now, I lose unlimited data and my plan goes up 40 dollars a month minimum. 1 smart phone and 2 "feature" phones... with 2 gig data plan... 160, right now with unlimited data it is 126. I will wait till I get more money and by a used something else on swappa or ebay.

It works for the most part, but it is laggy and slow. I do not see ICS or JB making that any better.
