[AT&T LG Optimus G] Kaze105:
I have an offer for cash plus a Optimus G for my Nexus 4. I am fairly considering since im need the cash too. Considering I see that the Optimus G can be converted to a Nexus 4 and seems like there are some fixes for the problem such as LTE, SD card, is there anything I should know that the Optimus G cant do that my Nexus 4 can?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] MZille:
Well, the Nexus 4 will get the latest updates for Android OS straight from Google, whereas LG phones get updates somewhere between "eventually" and "never." The Optimus G even launched with ICS, which is several versions old now. The methods to convert an OG to a Nexus 4 can be pretty dicey.

If you're set on making the trade, make sure his phone is working properly (it boots, you can make and receive calls and connect to wifi and 3G/4G, the 16GB SD card is present and operational, there are no cracks on the exterior, Windows can see it when you connect a USB cable, the front and back cameras work, speaker works), make sure that the phone does not have any apps that will freak when you install a new SIM card, and be prepared to perform a master reset on the phone, because you want to start clean.

Also confirm that the phone is the E970 model. (Settings button, all settings, tap "General," scroll down to the bottom, tap "About Phone," select "Phone identity," and it's listed at the end.) The Optimus G comes in many flavors, but the E970 is the one designed to work on the AT&T network in the US.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Mike724:
Make sure the phone is rootable (I think there was a recent OTA that blocked our current method of getting root, not sure). The nexus 4 conversion isn't too dicey, if you know what you're doing. It really only goes wrong if your phone disconnects during it or power goes out, etc. I've done it 2-3 times now. I even converted back to stock to exchange it for a non-dysfunctional device (hardware issues), they didn't notice and gave me a new one. Which I then converted back to nexus 4. There are some glitches with the conversion though, but they are pretty much all fixed. A few developers here are working on AOSP ROMs for this device, which they will hopefully release soon. Which means the conversion wouldn't be necessary anymore.

Hardware differences I can think of:

Optimus G supports SD Card expansion

Optimus G supports LTE

Optimus G has capacitive keys

Optimus G does not support wireless charging like the Nexus 4

Notification light placement is different

They look different

If you're comfortable with the less-thriving developer community here (compared to the Nexus 4), and like the Optimus G's hardware, I'd go for it. Ultimately the choice is up to you. :good:
[AT&T LG Optimus G] nygfan760:
Assuming the Optimus G is in good condition, it's a good deal. Right now there is the N4 Conversion, and the ability to run N4 roms without conversion is coming very soon. I think the screen is nicer imo on the G.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] whoamanwtf:
This is not a good deal, he wants Cash money PLUS an OG for his N4.. So he is sort of offering to mug you and then forget him phone behind...

The N4 are built with inferior cpus/ every OG I have seen has scored Fast or fastest where as they score slow and slower often, the screens do not look as good... Lacks LTE and expandable storage...
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Mike724:
Umm... Unless I read it wrong, this guy wants to give up his Nexus 4 for an OG. Not the other way around.

I had the nexus it was a awesome phone but I love the fact that we have SD card slot and LTE and I'm sure devas will find out a way to run nexus 4 ROMs soon. Do it its a great device I have no regret
[AT&T LG Optimus G] tmease1:
I think you are going about this the wrong way. If you want to trade for a Optimus G, I think you should be the one giving money with the trade. There are a few things the OG has that the Nexus 4 doesn't. I think it's kind of ballsy on your part to actually ask for money with this trade. Anyone can buy a Nexus 4 brand new for $350 or under but you will pay more than that for a brand new unlocked OG. I think the OG is a better phone personally. His trade isn't worth it.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dvdbabcock:
you read it wrong, he wants to trade a nexus for a og, and get cash not pay you cash(the person with the og) which means he wants more for less which is a bad deal
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Dr0!dFreek:
The thread writer is getting a really good deal ( og plus cash) while the person on the other side of the of the deal is getting ripped off( nexus 4).....GOO FOR IT
[AT&T LG Optimus G] sounreal:
How much cash are we talking about???
[AT&T LG Optimus G] chrisphoenix7:
DO IT.

Same guts, nexus has no lte. Optimus has more usable screen real estate.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] izbrian:
I had the nexus 4 its a good phone but on ATT the data speeds were just WAY to slow and I would say the optimus G is faster and has better battery life
[AT&T LG Optimus G] topdawg7793:
Considering that there are officially

NO MORE PROBLEMS

with the N4 conversion (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2160124), the OG is actually a N4 with LTE and SD card support. I'd probably take that offer, but needless to say you should probably make sure and check that everything is actually working (properly mounts in your computer, LTE works, *ADB* works, etc..).

EDIT: GPS is buggy for some people...So the conversion almost has no more problems..almost..
[AT&T LG Optimus G] nygfan760:
GPS is broken if you install the AT&T modem for LTE.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] topdawg7793:
Yeah I just read a few posts related to that this morning. But the conversion is almost worth it now (for the short-term).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cody_cummins:
I'm on the stock rom and rooted and the update must of downloaded and now it's bugging me to install it is there anyway I can turn it off so the icon goes away?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] aquaholik:
It will keep bugging you every 5 minutes if not more. Follow viperboy's instruction using a file explorer with root access like ES file explorer. After you delete the two files, go ahead and run the update. It will try to but nothing will happen, not even a reboot. After that, it won't bug you again.

Hello out there!

For my first thread I want to share to you the dark version of the BlackBerry10 Lockscreen! :cool:

A known bug is that if you pull the hw keyboard out there will be the original cm10 lockscreen, if i've got some time beside university I will fix that but it's not on my priority list...

Big thanks to Evilisto who brought this to the android world and especially to ldiomedi who ported it to the Defy which made it possible for me to adapt it to our Milestone2!

To get this lockscreen you just have to install the BB10_CM10_28.12.DARK.zip file in your custom recovery and if you want to revert the changes install the BB10_CM10_28.12.Original.zip file.

So, what should I say more - go on and start hit the Download and Thanks Button :cowboy:

Hi All,

I'm running the latest SmOoTher_BeAn mod and love how much more responsive my gTab is. I do have a problem getting my bluetooth GPS receiver to work. It is properly paired but my nav app (Sygic) doesn't seem to recognize it. I then sideloaded the BluetoothGPSProvider.apk which worked on a previous TeamDRH ICS install but it doesn't work on JB.

[HTC Droid DNA] SAMPCam:
Be very careful with the ENG Hboot. If you're just flashing ROM's and Kernels, you don't need it. ENG Hboot's make it easier to break things...
[HTC Droid DNA] Lykarsis:
What exactly is this?
[HTC Droid DNA] Argumentation:
I ended up flashing it a bit differently, I made a PL83IMG.zip and did

Worked perfectly for me, the bar got stuck 3/4 but the terminal had it finished, just issued a fastboot reboot.

Now..for the radio...fastboot flash radio <radio.img>?

Edit: nvm got the radio done too, for those wondering like I was, I was correct its fastboot flash radio radio.img. My first HTC device so I'm still learning.
[HTC Droid DNA] two_cents:
can this be flashed the same way we used to do with the TBolt? by placing the appropriate file name on the root of the SDcard and it will automatically load when booted into hboot... it looks like PL83IMG.zip is the proper name... and where can I get the radios from the OTA update or do I just pull it from the OTA PKG?
[HTC Droid DNA] Argumentation:
Since we have no SD card, HBOOT doesn't look for the PL83IMG file, and yes, just pull the radios from the OTA and fastboot flash them and you should be good.
[HTC Droid DNA] SAMPCam:
Since the DNA does not have an SDCard, it does not search for a PL83IMG.zip to the best of my knowledge. The updated firmware can be found in the firmware.zip in the OTAPkg.zip: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390288116658474558
[HTC Droid DNA] two_cents:
im confused on how to extract the radio.img.. after i unzip the ota i cant extract the files from the firmware.zip it keeps giving me an invalid error... do we need this hboot just to flash a radio?
[HTC Droid DNA] yardi4life:
Thanks for this example. I used it to flash the radio from 2.04 update. :good:

You might have to rebuild the partitions.

Another option is to use ADB. Using the dd to from command making sure you dd recovery to the correct partition number. There is a ADB command to show the partition numbers. You'll have to read up on that making sure you do it correctly or you can brick your phone.

So did you flash a recovery through Odin? If not, do that then Vol Up + home + Power should bring you there

Then use adb something must be up with Odin. Using adb you can use the dd command to install the recovery right to the partition. Just do your research.

I just bought a rooted DInc2. I love it, and am slowly learning about. I don't know the method that the previous owner rooted the phone, but it is currently S-ON.

So, my question is: which method should I use to get it to S-OFF? I was looking at the Comprehensive S-OFF/Root Methods (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1751796), and it is not clear to me. Do I use the instructions, "Get S-OFF after using HTCDev Unlock", even if I don't know if the phone was rooted using HTCDev Unlock?

Noticed on CM10.1 4.2.1 4.2.2 ROM's that when you call into voicemail or banking menu that requires you to press the dial pad to enter in menus options and account number info doesn't work.

I was able to fix it by turning dial tone touch sounds off in the dialer options. Just thought I'd let you all know in cause someone else is having this issue since a Google search brought up really vague results.

Hope I posted in the right place. Move if needed.

Actually, they work with the tones on. You just need to press and hold the keys a little longer to allow the other end to capture the tone.

I had same problem with liquidsmooth 2.1 RC2, and disabling touch sounds fixed the problem. However now that I upgraded to liquidsmooth 2.1 stable, the workaround does not work anymore. Neither does holding button, it's a set DTMF tone length. my voicemail is useless now. anyone have any idea on how to solve this problem?

UPDATE:

I did some more research, and the only thing I can think is the standard aosp phone.apk is used in both roms. I did find a feature request for it. (URL Below) So let me get this straight, my new phone cant dial a voicemail? or use a touch tone menu for calling tech support?

I would post this in developer forums, as there has been many questions lately about this problem, but I'm not allowed because I'm a noob. Guess I won't find a solution to this problem anytime soon. Seems I cant post links either......

Hye, I'm pretty new here. I've been watching on the sidelines the progress and all and still scared of rooting (lol?) but I honestly would start tinkering around if there's an Xloud bug fix. The one that makes the speaker loud after using the FM radio, so is there one? I'd like to keep the stock music player and the rom basically stock so I'd not like to flash the updated walkman players >.<

Thank you!

Edit: a more detailed explanation of the problem

The 'Xloudness' does not stick/stay. Yeah, on some occasions it works, sometimes it does not. The only way of getting rid of the bug is to disable the radio app THAT CAUSED the bug (volumes when xloud turned on being really loud or just not loud), and I'd really would like to know whether only XMPs have this problem.

Flashtool

I think you could use flashtool to flash your phone. It DOES NOT ROOT YOUR PHONE. You could download a stock .ftf firmware (.431 or .587 for ICS). I prefer 4.1.B.0.587.
