[Sprint LG Optimus G] cbmboy:
Hey all!

I've been lurking the forums for a long time. Used some great guides a few years ago to root and mod my LG Optimus S... .which I still use today. It has served me well, but it's time for an upgrade!

I have been watching the LG Optimus G for a month or two... Sprint did their buy one get one free for $200 deal that ended March 1st... now they have $49.99 for a new contract and $99.99 for an upgrade. This matches what Amazon has been running for months. I don't have 4G in my area, and don't expect it anytime soon, so I am waiting to buy when the price drops end. I know the Optimus G Pro is going to be launch in the next few months. SO, should I expect the price to drop again when the Optimus G Pro comes out? or is $99 probably the best deal to expect for some time?

I haven't watch prices for more than a month or two, so if anyone who has seen the market ups and downs could chime in it would be much appreciated!

Thanks!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] JeauxAdam:
I got it for $99 from Best Buy a couple months ago and I think it's a steal at that price. The only comparable phones easily go for twice that. I doubt it'll get much better in the near future.

I'm not an expert. Just my two cents.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Shantox73:
If it were me in your position .... I would probably wait till the Pro version launches and compare the Optimus G (which I have and love btw) against the G pro and see what kind of upgrade pricing you can get on both at that time. Anyway ... the Optimus G is a GREAT device with a lot of power and at $99 ... it's a steal!

Like the guy above me this is just my opinion on the issue. That Pro version sure looks nice but I am married to the Optimus G for 23 more months :good:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Enzopreme:
Yeah but what carrier is picking up on the G pro? The G wasn't exactly a cash cow for them.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] kc_exactly:
You can find it used in Craigslist for 200 in KC. If you want some advice, never get stuck in a contract. Buy used stuff cheap and sell your old stuff on eBay.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] JeauxAdam:
One of these days I will learn that. You are very correct.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] enik_fox:
We sell it for 89.99 at my store. A little birdie tells me it will be 49.99 soon.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Shantox73:
Hard to say cuz you are very correct.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] t1vengeful:
I wouldn't waste a ton of time deciding..get this phone

$100 is a steal..i paid $280 off contract for mine
[Sprint LG Optimus G] sbslammer:
Or just get a free gsIII. Ebayed it for 470 then bought and brand new LGOG for 400. Profit= 40 bucks plus a superior phone
[Sprint LG Optimus G] shook187:
Good luck with that scenario with the ridiculous eBay and PayPal fees.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] sbslammer:
True, ebay gives top rated sellers pretty hefty discounts. But even if I didn't have it I wouldve still turned a profit ~15 or so.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Warlord721:
I've seen online ads saying you can get the LGOG for $49 but only as a new contract. Not an upgrade or added line. Either ATT or Sprint.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] gothymp:
I got my LG OG and a Galaxy Nexus for free.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] cbmboy:
Care to elaborate? I'd love to find that kind of a deal on my contact renewal.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dwd902:
I got my LGOG for free. We upgraded my wife's phone through Best Buy and got the fifty dollar gift certificate. I waited to upgrade mine and they had a weekend deal for the LGOG for 49.99. Gave then gift card and had to swipe my card because it was a purchase but that was it. Even better i live in NH with no sales tax. Literally cost me nothing.

I upgraded at Best Buy back in January when they were running the "buy the phone for 99 and get a free LG stereo bluetooth" special. My girl wanted a bluetooth anyway, and I figured, why buy a bluetooth for her for 70 bucks when I can pay 30 more and get a new phone as well.

First of all, post in the correct section, please.

Quite sure that your Wildfire S is a 2012 one.

Go to this post.

Following are the instructions to install.

And hit the thanks button for these two, and me too if you want. :)

Thank you for your help

Sorry for the bad section how can I move my thread in issue and question section ?

How can I be sure to have a 2011 or 2012 model ?

In phone parameters I haven't found this information.
[HTC Wildfire S] Lt.Win:
Click the triangle in the OP and ask the moderator to move the thread.

How to find out which model it is:

1. When did you buy the phone? (Quite obvious)

2. CM ROMs don't boot up, stuck at White HTC logo inspite of full and correct wipe.

Hello

I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 3G, 16 G which is not available in the US so I bought it from abroad

It was going well until I recently tried to open the contacts

White screen appears for some minutes and then a note appear saying: contacts not responding, want to close or wait

I tried to restart the note, tried to backup and restart but still nothing

I don't know whether to format or try another software than mine (ICS 4.0.4) or should I return the tablet?

Please advice

Try a factory reset first, Go into recovery - Hold power button and volume up until samsung logo appears then release power. Keep holding volume up until recovery menu appears.

Go to data/cache clear and do that. You will need to backup anything you don't want to loose as this resets to factory, clears all data.

If this doesn't fix then take back but not until you factory reset inside settings and then do the above again. This should clear out everything and reset to factory...

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00345:
I want to pose a question in regards to the Bluetooth quality for the new HTC One. I use my phone heavily to steam music, podcasts, and take phone calls over Bluetooth and have had varying results with my past phones. My Blackberry, HOX, and GS3 have very high quality audio over Bluetooth while my GS2 was trash.

Reading about the HTC One X+, many users reported horrible Bluetooth playback. Do we know if the One will follow suit? With such an audio centric device, I hope they took this into consideration. Unfortunately, this would be a deal breaker for me. Knowing how long it takes ATT to push out updates, I don't want to rely on that process either.

Anywho, I'd like to hear your thoughts.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigNate:
I would hope just as others who use BT to stream music that the quality would be good, especially since HTC is really pushing music quality with the ONE. But there is no real way of knowing until we all get to use it.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BaronInkjet:
It has aptX, which is the best available in the market now. I have GS3 with aptX and it is quite good. I can tell the difference between BT w/aptX and wired IEMs, but the difference is not huge. Just a little more bg noise; probably would not notice in car.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigNate:
what about BT headphones? would there be a huge difference there, or not a big enough one for it to be noticable?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amaj7:
BT headphoones or headset must support aptX as well to provide wireless sound quality almost similar to wired. Check the specs. When I flashed SGS2 first android JB leak firmware (that added aptX codec support to SGS2) I was shocked with the difference in sound quality it my headset with aptX support. Due to poor headphones preamp in SGS2 the BT headset preamp appeared much better and in pair with aptX the sound via BT is better than from minijack.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dazrin:
If you look at the One X+ issues you can see that the problem was generally for call/voice quality not for music quality. I really hope the call quality is fixed for the One. I returned my X+ because of the poor bluetooth call quality, and would have gotten one again if I had ever seen an update for it.

It sounded like the issue was fixed by some custom ROMs and was a software output level issue rather than a hardware issue, so it seems like HTC should have been able to fix this by now. /crosses fingers.
[HTC One S] omer7:
For the last few days, some apps on my phone, mainly facebook and flipboard are taking long time to open. For example, if I open Facebook app, the whole screen becomes white, and sometimes it takes a very long time to open, in fact just today when I opened facebook app, the screen became white, and it took so long, that I had to press home button. Same happens with flipboard app. However if I'm using these apps, and just minimize them (by pressing the home button), opening them again after 5 to 10 mins doesn't seem to cause any issue. But if I again open them after an hour or two or may be more, the same thing happens.

Is anyone else facing this issue? Why is this? I've tried factory reset as well :(, coz the same thing happened with Google+ app, but again facing the same issue with facebook, flipboard etc.

Is it because of auto-sync enabled? Now I've disabled facebook "live feed" auto-sync, lets see whether it works fine or not.

Thanks in advance :)

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Spectre51:
I know TiMiN8R made a Stock Rooted Deodexed rom for everyone but some people asked for just a Stock rom that wasn't deodexed so that's what I have made here. This is a stock firmware with only root added. Please note the kernel and CWM are not packed into this rom (though the reboot fix is) Please read the note at the bottom regarding bootloop issues.

Here you go: http://d-h.st/tAn

Installation for Unlocked Bootloader

* Make a backup - Always backup just in case you ****up (Data backed up through Sony's Backup & Restore app can be restored without issue)

* Flash any kernel you want to use that has built in recovery.

* Enter recovery

* Factory reset

* Flash rom.

Installation for Locked Bootloader

* Make a backup - Always backup just in case you ****up (Data backed up through Sony's Backup & Restore app can be restored without issue)

* Use flashtool to flash any generic ftf that can be rooted using Bin4ry's method. If you are already on a LT30 ICS/JB firmware that is rooted you can ignore this step.

* Root using Bin4ry's method.

* Install CWM for Xperia T Locked bootloaders

* Enter recovery, factory reset and flash the ROM.

* Flash the stock ftf (same version as the rom used ftf available in my signature) in Flashtool but uncheck Wipe Data, Wipe Cache, Wipe app Log. Also exclude everything except for Kernel. (This is needed to update the Kernel to the latest stock version otherwise you may get a bootloop.)

**Keep LTE**

If you have a LT30at or LT30a and would like LTE with the LT30p rom then once you have flashed the above go back into Flashtool and flash the latest LT30at or LT30a ftf. UNCHECK Wipe Data, Wipe Cache, Wipe app Log, and exclude everything EXCEPT for baseband. This should put LTE support back on the phone but keep the LT30p system.

*If you started on a rooted LT30at or LT30a firmware and flashed this rom straight from that you do not have to reflash the baseband as it is not overwritten by this rom.

You will need to reinstall CWM after flashing this rom if you want it. CWM is not baked into this rom.

**NOTE**

If going from ICS to JB you will get a bootloop after flashing and rebooting phone. Hold the power and Volume up button until the phone vibrates three times (simulated pulling of battery for non-removable batteries). You can then flash the JB kernel through flashtools to fix the bootloop.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] crazymister:
You can also flash kernel from cwm.

http://d-h.st/wye

It's just a stock kernel with no cwm. It's especially for locked bootloader but unlocked bootloaders can use it as well.

Just use that link and you will find it
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] babylonbwoy:
Thanks a lot, was waiting for that !

Edit : I already flashed TiMiN8R Deodexed JB ROM, so I'll be fine if I only flash your rom over it, Right ?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Spectre51:
Yep
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] xlilo:
Hello Spectre51.

So, if I flash this ROM, it will use the Kernel I used to get into Recovery?

I'm coming from HTC devices, so Sony is new to me...

I would prefer to keep the stock kernel for now. In EMMA I do not see the option only to flash a kernel? I see the ICS stock .195 rom and then the JB Alpha build. Is that the .489 version?

I'm currently on the .489... Like the ROM but only need root on it.

Thx,

That's why you don't use sprints buyback. Craigslist or ebay or swappa are the best route, if you don't sign up for best buys buyback.

If he (or she) is asking if it's worth buying, then the motivation for WHY the person's buying it is, indeed, reasonable to ask. Otherwise how can I give an informed answer?

Seriously, if the person merely started a thread and said, "I'm going to buy a second Epic 4G Touch," and I responded with my questions, the surprisingly rude responses to my question would be justified as it would, indeed, be none of my business. But when a person actually ASKS our advice on whether or not the purchase is worth it without a shred of supporting data, it's COMPLETELY acceptable to ask them why they want to buy it before I give my answer. Their motive WILL change the answer.
