Having upgraded to 4.2.x now for about a month I have nothing but fustrations about the upgrade. I've had probably 5-6 random reboots where as on 4.1.x I had none. The phone has had problems connecting to data where the only remedy was to reboot. I've also had problems connecting with GPS AND bluetooth where only a reboot would fix things. The OS studders much more than before and (it could be my imagination) it seems some apps run slower than before. With that said if I have to reboot one more time this week I will be downgrading.

BTW I'm stock with bootloader unlocked on yakju.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mortenmhp:
Like everyone else you should try a fresh install of the factory image wiping everything without restoring any data. It shouldn't matter if you are going to downgrade anyway.

We are many who have had no issues at all, so give it a shot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cymru:
Lots of threads already on these issues.

Just downgrade now and save us having to listen to more whining...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akira02rex:
If you updated from 4.1 to 4.2 without a full wipe there's potential for a lot to go wrong. There could be some app running as a service that isn't fully compatible with 4.2 causing your issues.

With that being said, I would try fully resetting the device, no need to re-flash the stock image because it's already in place on the device anyway.

Install apps that are known to work on 4.2 ONLY. Then, you can begin testing to see if it becomes stable. After that, do what you want.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] g8who:
Thanks, I'll give a try!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] g8who:
Not all of us have the time to look through all the threads to make sure threads aren't duplicate buddy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cymru:
Yeah, it's as if someone should add a search button to the forum :silly:

But searching takes time...

And it's not like you can make it through a page in either General or Q&A without tripping over a 4.2 whine thread.

if you're on the VZW Galaxy Nexus, then i strongly recommend getting the mmuzzy rom. i think it's made specifically for that carrier/model only. it's been great for me so far. so smooth, no issues thus far!

i don't know how much experience you have with swapping roms, but you should use the Super Wipe utility that mmuzzy recommends.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] netslum:
This guy is correct MMuzzy has been the most stable for Vzn Gnex. I only have a qualm with the GPS, but that's every phone

Only bluetooth problem

Hi.

I only have problems in bluetooth in 4.2.1... Sometimes I turned it off and I cannot turn it on again :( Also... sometimes when the phone goes into sleep mode it disconnect the connection with handset... It never happen in 4.1.

I downloaded the factory image of 4.2.1 from Google and flash it... still the same. I saw people saying a clean install... Should I do another kind of install other than I did?

Can someone please tell me if got this kind of bluetooth problem and have solved it? How?

Thanks :)

I have a LG Mach (AKA Cayenne, LS860) LG Apparently algo named the LU3000 "Mach" as well for w/e reason. There is a distinct lack of ANYbody developing for this phone. I would like to take on doing it myself, but I am unclear on how to start. I managed after about a week to root the stock rom, but I can't find any recoveries for it. How should I go about this?

I understand that this is a very in depth question and for most, it would be too much to tackle. However, I have a background in C++ and Visual Basic (though I am a little rusty). Any direction would be nice and I am willing and capable of learning anything necessary to accomplish this.

Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] CorySCline:
Well this is a combination of bump / information. Since there is a lack of information regarding this phone out here, I figured I would share the method I used to root this phone. It works on the stock 4.0.4 rom.

I was thinking about compiling TWRP for this phone myself, but I would like input from everyone if CWM would be a better choice? Input welcome :)
[General Questions and Answers] Mgamerz:
I just won this phone, and I'm putting the term LG MACH ROOT/LG MACH BOOTLOADER in this thread so people can find it via google.

There is pretty much no developer love for this phone... :(

I don't care which way you do it. Personally I prefer TWRP because of it's touch controls.
[General Questions and Answers] CorySCline:
Well, it looks like its up to me and you: :)

Im going to compile TWRP tonight for it, and if all goes well, I will create a new thread with the rooting method and recovery explained. However, know that you will officially be person #2 to use this recovery image. All warnings and potential problems will apply.

Up for some fun? :)
[General Questions and Answers] Mgamerz:
I haven't got the phone yet actually. Briefmobile informed that I won and that sprint will ship it. I don't know anything more than that :/ I hope soon. It'd be fun to mess with the phone while my college break is going on still.

Sorry about the really slow replies. I should subscribe so that tapatalk notifies me.

I don't know when it will get here :/

But since you have it, do you know if the bootloader is unlocked/unlockable? Google is surprisingly of little use with this phone. I'd love to dink around with this phone since it's not my primary one (and I can't use cellular services on it)
[General Questions and Answers] CorySCline:
All good, it takes time to develop these things anyways. I should have a stable TWRP build within a few days, and a CyanogenMod 10.1 (Android 4.2) build complete in the next couple of weeks.

The bootloader is something I am going to tackle tonight. As you can tell, there is zero documentation on the web for this device. In fact, it received more attention when it was a concept than it does now. So for now, I have no answer on the bootloader. I hope so, or all my work is useless lol. However, root is obtained at a bare minimum :)

Anyone out there that comes across this thread that wants to find information on modding this phone, PLEASE post your interest here. Trust me, you won't find any other resources.

lg locked bootloaders

I have the lg motion, I don't know how close it is to the mach but I've been following a thread for several months that has been trying to figure out a workaround for the locked boot loader. Google all things root guide for lg motion and you might be able to find a decent starting point for your phones maybe even help them figure out the motion
[General Questions and Answers] CorySCline:
Ok, well I think, for now at least, root is all we are getting :(. I have managed to develop and compile ClockworkMod Recovery TeamWin Recovery, and Cyanogenmod 10.1 for it, but realized after all that work that the bootloader is not only locked, but also signed with a digitally encrypted key. Basically in laymans terms: We are ****ed. So, if anybody manages to shmooze either Sprint or LG out of these unlock codes, let me know and I'll provide everything else. Otherwise, anything I have made will brick every LS860 it goes on. Sorry guys.
[General Questions and Answers] Mgamerz:
Oh boy is like Motorola all over again... So no flashing recoveries even?
[General Questions and Answers] Mgamerz:
Hey!
[General Questions and Answers] CorySCline:
Thats correct. At least from my understanding. I could be wrong, but without the ability to unlock the bootloader i dont want to try flashing recovery. Too risky for me. Ill give anyone who wants to try my twrp build but i wont accept any repercussion for it doing anythin negative
[General Questions and Answers] Mgamerz:
Give me your twrp build then :)

I just rooted it. Was super easy.

Tried adb reboot bootloader. Did nothing. Tried adb reboot recovery. Recovered the device. Can't seem to figure out a way to have it download software. (like nvflash) Wonder if there's a special cable...
[General Questions and Answers] LG_Mach:
So I already bricked two, lol. Not going for a third. I really wanna root this phone. I went as far as getting the firmware which is a cab file. But then I guess you have to convert that to a kdz file. Then decrypt the kdz file. Well it appears you need to be an LG Service tech to use the program. Was hoping there was work around for all this,
[General Questions and Answers] Mgamerz:
I rooted it, it was easy using the sony tool that does the adb backup remount bug, but that's as far as I got. I uninstalled a bunch of crap off of the system partition and its a lot faster now, too bad I can't get that activation screen to go away.
[General Questions and Answers] Mgamerz:
Just pulled the newest OTA. I found it in /cache. I tried to get the URL but instead I made it so it no longer sees there's an update... I have the zip file however, and inside of it there is patches to just about everything in system, and updates to magazines, chrome, and LGBookmarksProvider.

There's also a command to install a recovery image:

#!/system/bin/sh

/sbin/write_recovery /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery

Not sure if it's a good idea to flash that... forgot that it's still locked bootloader

EDIT: Finally figured out download mode... I just held all the buttons down when starting it and voila, it's there. I also hear you can use the LG Software update tool to flash back to stock, so we might finally have root that's safe :)
[General Questions and Answers] Mgamerz:
Does anyone have the BooksTablet.apk found in /system/app? I'm not sure why but it won't install the update cause the sha1 of that file fails :( I don't know where to find it.
[General Questions and Answers] jfm567:
Dont let this thread die! I noticed there was no dedicated forum for the LS860 development, I really enjoy this phone and would love some level of development for it. I can help as much as I am able.
[General Questions and Answers] Mgamerz:
Can someone rip me their BooksTablet.apk and BooksTablet.odex from their LS860 and PM me a link to it? I really am pissed off at the update prompt (I'm not sure why it's not working, I haven't touched it and I made sure I backed everything up... It won't validate BooksTablet.apk) I'm on the stock original version of the software ZV6 or something... not the ZV7.

I really don't want to go into sprint that much, though I might have to do that soon.

Edit: Just called sprint. They won't do anything for me and I'm not going to pay money for someone to reflash my phone. It's pretty ridiculous how factory images for devices aren't released. You know how many issues this would solve? That's why nexus devices are great. They're practically unbrickable.

Ever since the 4.2.1 update I've been having constant data drops. It usually happens in sleep/idle mode. I'll wake the phone from sleeping and the blue bars turn gray for a couple of seconds, no data. Also during sleep it seems to have this issue since I'm not receiving anything on gtalk, Gmail etc.

Is there a solution to this?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chinabull:
Which provider are you with?

If you are in North American, I strongly recommend to reflash you baseband to UGLH1.

I am with Mobilicity in Canada. The stock google XX european baseband gave me huge data stability issue.

Actually it was exactly same symptoms as you. The data was ok and then after waking up from sleep, it just could not reconnect any more.

I struggled a few months on it and finally reflashed to UGLH1 and everything is stable since.

BTW, I am running 4.2.1 with UGLH1. RIL mismatch doesn't matter in this case.

Hope this helps.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khanjui:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbucz24:
Using a base is "porting" a ROM not building one.

There are a bunch here on porting, but in the end its a lot of trial and error. Reading logcats, an working from there.

Since the ported ROM wasn't built for your device, there's no specific directions on how to do it and have it work for every device out there.

[General Questions and Answers] WilliamAngelo:
Recently purchased 2 unlocked Samsung SGH-I927R for my wife and I. Verified they were unlocked. Perchased a SIM card for Straight Talk and all was fine.

My wife is currently in the Philippines and purchased a SIM card for Globe. The phone worked fine and she was able to make calls and send text and emails to me. The next day she went to use the phone and it was locked. Verified it was locked by having her enter *#7465625#. When she turns on the phone it asks for some kind of key.

My questions are how did it relock itself after it initially worked and since she will be in the Philippines for 2 months is it possible for her to unlock it there instead of having to buy another phone to use there.

Thanks for any advice.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] betthacd:
Not sure if this has been posted, or even if I can post something like this, but I am upgrade eligible and really wanted a EVO LTE because I liked how the white version looked and the SVDO is also really appealing. I was searching forever for a deal, and really didn't want to even pay $50 the other week at Best Buy and I missed the day where BestBuy.com was selling for free. I came across an old SlickDeals post -

http://slickdeals.net/f/5324082-Sprint-HTC-EVO-4G-LTE-49-99-for-Upgrade-or-New-Line

The post was for a 49.99 deal, but when I clicked on the link, the Sprint site (which is a private store for Valued Sprint Customers) had several select smartphones and the EVO LTE was only .99 and no activation fee or shipping. I was able to order the phone without any troubles and now I have an EVO LTE on its way to me for next to nothing! If anybody else wants to avail themselves of the offer, you can either follow the above link, or I will post brief directions taken from the post here also:

go to http://www.sprint.com/99centoffer

Click on Phones tab, then select the type

That should take you to this website:

http://shop2.sprint.com/NASApp/onli..._Phone_Char&id12=CustomAisleLanding_Promo_PDA

I imagine that at some point Sprint might close this off, but until then I may have to take advantage of it a couple of times for some other people I know with upgrades. Cheers.

I paid the $10 4g fee since the og evo. Never got 4g on two lines, so I complained and got a two line contract reset and 200 credit and an evo lte and galaxy s3 free. Try this over the phone with tech help after the third call and remember what you say. Sprint made my day, and it's wonderful having 4g all over chicago (not there yet officially) even in a warehouse basement from the 1910's. 5gb each day and never roaming or throttled, unlimited is the best. But i must say the evo lte is a way better phone, but the samsung has way better reception. Bye HTC loved my last 6 years with you, but back to samsung because i get signal. :crying:

Returned the Evo I just paid $150 for to the store, activated the one I paid 99 cents for when I got home without any problems. Of course, returning the one I bought in-store also undoes the contract extension associated with it, we'll see at what point the 99 cent one reinstates the extension. Definitely glad I saw this thread though, definitely saved me money!
