Hello friends as you can see I am NOOB is my first experience with MOTOROLA, got to be root, and install the SS3, I love the MOD and experiment rooms .. I decided to install a ROM that was not the tedious and boring that brings AT & T.. but I have a problem when I try to install an application that has OBB fails me, for example GAMES and APPS .. When I try to open the camera tells me NO EXTERNAL STORAGE .... WTF???

My doubts are e done something wrong when installing?? I made some mistake in SS3: The steps were ... Wipe, Cache, partition in Slot 1 ....

[HTC One X] nders:
Hi,

I've recently switch from Galaxy W to OneX. And I found out that a game i've been playing (Playstore) lags on OneX. It is a simple, word based javascript/php powered app. And it ran smoothly on single-core Galaxy W (and my friend's S3), but lags on OneX.

Any ideas? Thank you all.

Things I've done:

Force GPU Rendering (in dev options)

Force GPU overlay (in dev options)

flashed ARHD 18.1

flashed new kernel (ncx v17b)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] revaew:
I did a search and nothing was answered other than to try the whole "power off device via bootloader and BAM problem solved"...which doesn't work for me. I also have some issues not discussed. It seemed easier to just start a new thread.

So my wife let my N7 completely die. So she goes to charge it and it won't charge. She tries another cable and those don't work either. So here is what happens, and what I've tried so far. Also, I am rooted running CM10.1 I believe.

1- push the power button:

Up in the top left corner i get the text "show low low battery icon!" device turns off after about 3 seconds.

2- plug in charger:

When I do this, the little battery charging this comes on and the battery fills 3 times then the screen goes off (about 10 seconds)

3- hold power button for 30 seconds

if the charger is plugged in-> it brings up the battery w/lighting bolt, then says Google, then shows Cyanogen mod boot animation, then loads up my home screen, then instantly powers off because of no battery (0%). then starts all over and will repeat indefinitely (given that i continue to hold the power button down.)

charger not plugged in-> shows battery icon, says Google, then CM10 boot animation, then loads home-screen, then powers off, repeat indefinitely

4-if i take out charger after putting charger in:

it will still show the battery charging sequence for the ~10 seconds even though no charger is in

5- with charger in, pressing power and volume down:

takes me to boot-loader with the android laying on its back with its torso open. it says information in bottom left corner. it says start up in the top right by the power button, then has an up/down arrow by corresponding volume keys. Pressing volume keys does nothing. pressing power does nothing. I can hold the power button and it will restart, says Google, play CM boot animation, load home screen then power off.

6-without charger, pressing power and volume down:

see object 5

7- press power while charger connected.

Tablet loads with the whole Google->boot animation-> home-screen. while on the home screen, device starts powering off (0%) battery. while this is happening I can press the power button again to bring up the power menu. I can power off or restart:

a) power off: turns off device. nothing changes

b) restart-> boot-loader: restarts into boot-loader. see item 5

c) restart->recovery: tablet restarts, but then just goes to a black screen and then turns off. (sometimes it will also do a "normal" restart and load back to home-screen and what not)

d) restart->restart: restarts tablet normally back to where it will turn off immediately.

It does all of these things consistently. I am not sure what exactly I should do to try and fix this. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I remember back at 2012 they said they wouldnt release as much handsets... but low and behold they released alot. I thought it was going to be the HTC One X and One S but no they release alot more varients I think thats what killed them in 2012

rewind a little bit at 2011 and the heck they have alot of phones out in the market. they had no "brand"

I left HTC (i had the amaze) i got sick of the lack of updates and went to the Galaxy Nexus. Now im spoiled with jellybean and possibly the next update this june or november. I might go to Samsung since they try to update their phones in a timely manner

now that the HTC one has risen and decided to focus on the One brand... im thinking about returning to HTC. For one... i miss HTC sense. their widgets is just one of the best in the industry. I didnt need to download more apps on the marketplace. all the widgets i needed was on stock

Im rooting for HTC to get back to be the best manufacturer for sell phones. but please dont churn out phone after phone like samsung did. I dont want to resort to going to samsung :rolleyes:
[One (M7) General] katamari201:
HTC did reduce their lineup in 2012. I don't know what you are talking about. They had the smallest lineup of any (major) phone maker. The HTC X, S, and V. That's it. There were regional variants and a supercharged X+, but there was nothing to dliute or confuse. No clashing products. Each phone was distinctive. Samsung released a million versions of the Galaxy S III in different sizes with different specs. There was a Samsung phone review almost weekly on my goto tech blog. Sony had two or three flagships one after another as well as LG.

I also don't know what you are complaining about really. Samsung and HTC make very different phones. The screens are different. The build is different. The UI is different. All you seem to be concerned about is updates, which frankly I think is silly, especially people complaining about not getting 4.2 when 4.1 is almost exactly the same thing and Android can be hacked and customized with the latest stock if you want. I haven't noticed a change in Android since Froyo 2+ years ago. If you really want the latest updates, your best bet is the LG Nexus 4. No phonemaker's update schedule is gonna be reliable besides a Nexus device and your phone isn't gonna change much even with a new update.

Simply put, the only device that will please you, if you seem to not care about anything else but updates, is the Nexus 4, and whatever the next Nexus will be. So just ignore HTC and Samsung phones altogether. There's nothing to debate about. There is only one phone for you.
[One (M7) General] Eggcake:
And the XL and the Desire X and the Desire C, Desire V. Let's continue with the Droid Incredible 4G LTE, the HTC EVO 4G LTE, the HTC J and by the end of the year the HTC Butterfly.

Okay to be fair, you mentioned regional variants in addition to the One series - but there was definitely also the Desire series.

However...I agree with you :) Look at this list: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTC_phones sort it by release and compare 2012 with 2011. A HUGE improvement. They released WAY less devices and especially they mainly concentrated on two brands: One and Desire. The only thing I didn't like were the regional variants with totally different names. They really have to stop that (look at 2011, it was a huge mess). They need a brand that everybody can remember.

I think a Highend-Midrange line (One Series) and a Midrange-Lowrange line (Desire Series) would be optimal for them. However, they need to produce global variants, no extra sauce for the US this time. And that's exactly what they are doing. In addition, they seem to be concentrating on their absolute high end device first and introduce the lower variants later, not like last year where they released 4 devices at the same time (X, XL, S, V).

But we had the same discussion elsewhere. If the One brand sticks and they are successful, I'm sure they will be sticking to 3-6 devices, which is okay in my opinion.
[One (M7) General] Ddot196:
If you don't think the one x, s, v, +, xl, etc. etc. are confusing, you are mistaken. To the average consumer that is confusing. And yes this is different markets and carriers, but how is HTC supposed to even market a phone that has 12 differing variants of their "flagship"? Lol. I think they've learned, at least I would hope so, I mean look at the Samsung galaxy lol.
[One (M7) General] BigSplit:
Yeah OK buddy
[One (M7) General] cjm1979:
Marketing, or lack of it is what kills HTC. All the local phone stores near me are all Apple and Samsung inside. Vodafone opened a bigger revamped store in a shopping centre near me a few months a go and there was at least triple the amount Apple and Samsung stands, demo devices, signs in the store compared to HTC. Even Nokia had more.

At least this year they have the Uefa sponsorship and i read somewhere they have a new marketing guy in so hopefully it will be different this year.
[One (M7) General] Hunt3r.j2:
The M7/One is clearly a good design, and does all the right things. It will be sad if it fails because of marketing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] nagoshi:
I grabbed my brother's S II X because he was tired of it (phone having some issues that I didnt get so far, but he's not the most responsible phone user out there). Screen is cracked (not a huge crack, touch works 100%), bezel in poor condition, but otherwise works great.

Except for the Wi-Fi, which most of the time I cannot get working for some reason. It just stays off, or if I go in the Wifi menu and turn it on there, it shows "Turning On...", then stays there. Sometimes it starts working for absolutely no reason, sometimes it works from a cold boot, sometimes it works after enabling data/4G and messing with other stuff. I can't replicate the fixes. And it will also "disable" itself automatically for no reason after a while (could be minutes, could be hours).

A quick search made me realize this was a recurring issue with a few phones, not only the T989, but the fixes are missing.

It was doing this on stock 4.0.3, now I flashed AOKP's latest nightly (2013-02-22) and the issue is still there. I havent touched the kernel at all, other than dumping AOKP in there (if it includes a custom kernel then I guess I did, but otherwise I havent flashed anything else other than AOKP).

Anybody knows what is going on, or a tip to figure it out? Its rather annoying not being able to use Wi-Fi, especially since I was hoping I could change carriers to drop my plan prices by half by losing unused data.

I have a Canadian/Telus T989D, using the TLLE4 radio. I will try the TLLG2 (Koodo) radio and see if the issue is still there, but Id like to have a few ideas to try out since Im not really used to the inner workings of an Android phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] nagoshi:
Up, I really need tips on how to try and fix the issue. The phone is barely usable, the USB won't connect to the computer 19/20 times, Wi-Fi doesn't really work, and BT doesn't even turn on. I needed to remove the SD card from my old phone to put in this one and manually transfer pictures I took for job, to put them in the computer...

I flashed TLLG2 radio (Koodo) and Wi-Fi worked immediately after, but again stopped working shortly after. EDIT: BT doesn't seem to work on TLLG2, now that Im back on TLLE4 it works, but WiFi still doesn't work :(
[AT&T LG Optimus G] loligans:
Hey guys after flashing my LGOG to N4 i have these on screen buttons... I hate them~ thing is i can remove the onscreen buttons, but my capacitive buttons do no work. is there a work around, mod, anything really to make the LGOG capacitive buttons work?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] tdnick:
Flash the CM10.1 fix with the cap buttons. I actually enjoy the on screen keys.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Nastybutler:
If you look through the Development subforum you'll see many threads with something like "N4 FIX" in the title. Try reading through some of those for your answers. For that matter try using the "search" feature before asking questions that have obvious answers.

[HTC Sensation] burn2theground:
Hello, I am posting this topic because I am afraid to switch back to ics for sense. Can anyone confirm this for those who wonder the same thing?
[HTC Sensation] akeem127:
Depends on which version of sense you are talking about. Sense 3.6 gives me better battery life than any other. On aosp i get about 10-13 hours of battery. Sense 4.0/4.1 i get about 5-9 hours. On sense 3.6 i get about 15-20 hours. This is all on moderate use. I have an anker 1900mAh battery.
[HTC Sensation] matekaneve:
Stock Sensation battery, 4.1 sense, 24-26 hours, 2-4 hour screen on time. As you see, it depends on so many things what battery life you will get. The best is if you tried by yourself. Battery life can be rom/kernel/usage...etc related. Go and give them a try I would suggest.
[HTC Sensation] Mogasce:
AOSP

In my experience aosp ROMS have had better battery life especially ones that were based ones sense like 'virtuous inquisition' sadly its not been up dated for like a year now and ive used it as a daily driver for months with 0 issues, but if you like the sense look just use ARHD 6.8 (sense 3.6) for awesome battery life and if you use faux123 kernal and under volt it you can pull out two days without having to charge
[HTC Sensation] topgeardave:
I'm a power user who requires speed and stability. Running bruces CM10 as a daily driver with Tamcore's kernel with badass 192-1566mhz with battery saving settings flashed. I get 4 hours minimum onscreen a day with 512mb hardswap.
[HTC Sensation] DobbyDook:
I want to try. rom. 4 hour screen on on normal use is fantastic. I hope i get same result after install.

Rom is this?

[ROM][CM10][Kang][Pyramid][4.1.2][04 Oct]

Tamcore Kernel is the default kernel or must be downloaded separately?

Thank you.
[HTC Sensation] reasonz20:
Hey when can a the Tamcore kernel to download? oh can it be flashed through recovery?
[HTC Sensation] idrather:
Sultanxda 4.4.2 ION Rom I get about 12 hours with 3-4 hours of screen time, and constantly checking my phone for emails, Google Voice messages, and about 30 minutes of talk time. Not great since I have to charge it at least once a day. But if I decrease my screen time to 1-2 hours, then it can last about 16 hours.
[HTC Sensation] DobbyDook:
With this ROM I've 12 hours stand by and one hour of screen on. Incredible difference

[HTC Sensation] idrather:
Have you try changing battery? Maybe your battery has gone bad. I recently changed my Anker to another Anker after two years and five months of use. The new Anker helped stabilize battery drainage and time.

Now arrived new anker and this is result.

Better, but not how your battery life

[Sprint LG Optimus G] ens04:
Just recently my power button stopped working. I pushed the button to use my phone and it did nothing. For about five minutes pressing the power button did nothing. I had to press and hold up and power button to restart. Is working fine now but What I would like to know is why did this happen? How can I prevent something like this occurring?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] kmull4:
I've noticed mine has done the same thing a couple of times since I've gotten it. In my case I think the phone hot boots, maybe you have the same case
[Sprint LG Optimus G] alsaces daddy:
Same issue but no case and it wasn't hot. I think it might be software related. Waiting a few minutes and holding the button for 30 seconds finally allowed it to boot.

Hi bro

can u let me know how to use power +Vol up button to solve this problem?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] rajeshnitk:
Hi

How to use power+vol up button to solve this? Can u plz explain?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
hold the power button at the same time as holding volume up button.... hold both for a few seconds might take as long as 8 seconds

will put you in fastboot mode....(if it doesnt go into fastboot that way can hold power button until screen turns off then quickly hold volume up until fastboot comes on)

once in fastboot tap volume down twice (slowly allow a slight pause between presses) then pres the powere button and you will be in recovery
[Sprint LG Optimus G] rajeshnitk:
hi

Holding power button and vol up for some time just restarts the phone. Nothing happens.And holing power button also just restart the phone nothing more. Can u plz let me know what wrong I m doing.And then what to do after entering ito recovery mode?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Wonhob:
I can't even get my phone to the fastboot screen. Ive held down vol up and power. Vol down and power. All 3. I'm really at a loss. Any ideas before I just get a replacement? Also, my headphone jack has seemed to stop working along with my power button.

LG Optimus G EFS Backup/Restore

Every rooted Optimus G user should backup their EFS partitions! Included in this thread is a flashable EFS backup script and terminal/adb commands if you want to do it manually. The script automates the entire backup of all 3 EFS partitions and then packs the files into a flashable zip for easy restoring later. Place this zip somewhere safe other than your sdcard!

Thanks goes to toastcfh for the script help and everyone in #lg-optimus-g that helped out with EFS testing.

Original Optimus G EFS Thread(ZERO EFS) - HERE

Background

You never know when your NV/EFS may stop working correctly. Restoring your WORKING EFS may save the day. A few users in the #lg-optimus-g IRC channel have run into issues and found their phone unusable, myself included. Our issues could have been fixed if an EFS backup was made while the phone was still in working order.

m9kefs1 seems to be radio related

m9kefs2 contains your unique phone identifiers: IMEI, phone number, etc

m9kefs3 seems to be blank 00s
​

Backing up EFS

It's easiest to run the Optimus_G_Create_Flashable_EFS.zip attached to this thread. Run in recovery. Optimus_G_Create_Flashable_EFS.zip creates a flashable zip backup of your EFS in /sdcard/EFS_Backup/(instead of just a .tar). Confirmed working on TWRP 2.3.2.3/2.4.1.0 and CWM 6.0.2.7. Confirmed NOT working on CWM 6.0.1.5. Please check to make sure the backup zip worked and actually made a .zip file in /sdcard/EFS_Backup. Any issues please list what recovery and version you are using and please post the recovery.log.

If you don't like convenience this can also be done manually with adb or terminal with the commands below.. root required.

su
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/m9kefs1 of=/sdcard/m9kefs1.img
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/m9kefs2 of=/sdcard/m9kefs2.img
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/m9kefs3 of=/sdcard/m9kefs3.img

Restoring EFS

To restore your original EFS just boot into recovery and flash the efsbackupflash.zip in your /sdcard/EFS_Backup folder.

If you don't like convenience this can also be done manually with adb or terminal with the commands below. Adjust the "dd if=/sdcard/" command depending on where your backup EFS .img files are located.

su
dd if=/sdcard/m9kefs1.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/m9kefs1
dd if=/sdcard/m9kefs2.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/m9kefs2
dd if=/sdcard/m9kefs3.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/m9kefs3

[B]Changelog[/B]

[I]v1 EFS backup zip[/I]:
backed up m9kefs1.img and m9kefs2.img then .tar'd them.

[I]v2 EFS backup zip[/I]:
backed up EFS then creates a flashable .zip containing the EFS partitions.

[I]v3 EFS backup zip[/I]:
zip script is now "safer" and should work on all Optimus G variants.

[I]v4 EFS backup zip[/I]:
backup zip now backs up m9kefs3. this is for "completeness" only.
I believe m9kefs3 contains no worthwhile data.
[LG Optimus G (International)] funkym0nk3y:
Thanks for posting this, it is very much needed and all OG users must have their EFS partitions backed up. And i can confirm that m9kefs3 doesnt contains anything except zeroes, still its good to have it backed up :P

I also get sd-ext mount errors on my Sprint Optimus G(ls970). The errors don't seem to get in the way of anything.. seems it's just visually annoying. I'd love to see official TWRP versions for LGOG device.

[LG Optimus G (International)] billybest:
Some information: flashable zip does work correctly on official at&t twrp 2.4.2.0 on my rogers e971. sdcard/EFS_Backup only the 3 .img files and no zip
[LG Optimus G (International)] autoprime:
Thanks for the update. Apparently the 7z binary Im using in the script is dynamic.. and won't work with everyones setup. All my tests were done using CFX 4.2.2... seems there's stuff in that rom not found in some other LGOG roms. You will just have to dd the partitions if you ever need to restore. I guess at this point.. consider a working flashable .zip a "bonus" :-/

Also... the newest FreeGee app in the Play store supports EFS backup.. also backs up 3 separate .img files. :good:

The official TWRP for the Sprint LGOG also has EFS backup support added into the normal backup section. I would *think* this would run on Canadian LGOG's... you guy's don't have external SD right?
[LG Optimus G (International)] billybest:
We have external sd. There is no sd card slot on my Canadian Rogers E971 phone.

Thanks for this great tutorial!

I've been having an issue with LTE on my Rogers LGOG. I've tried KDZ-ing back to stock, factory resets multiple times, many different ROMs, and I can't seem to get LTE any longer. It was working before the data partition got damaged though, causing me to need to factory reset for the first time a couple days ago. I believe after that this started to happed.

Just wondering if anyone has a stock clean Rogers EFS backup I could use, or modify and use, if possible. Or if there is something else I could try. I've tried various radios, wiping caches in between, ensured everything like APN and setting were correct, even got Rogers to re-push my account. My SIM is fine in my roommate's HTC One X for LTE right away, and his SIM card is NOT fine in my LGOG, no LTE.

Not sure if the EFS is the only thing left or not. Even after multiple factory resets and everything it seems like this is the only thing left that will solve the issue!

Thanks to all!
[LG Optimus G (International)] hv6478:
Just wanted to mention this has now been FIXED! Thanks to some hard work from autoprime, Paulicat and a little by me (lol) I'm fully back on LTE. Will have some documentation about this issue in the next little while as we confirm more information about the issue.
