Last night I ran that LagFree app or whatever it's called because my tablet is slow as hell (or maybe I'm just used to my GS4 being so fast). I have it unlocked with CROMI and I think one of the OCed kernels. Anyway, I woke up this morning and the app finished trimming whatever it needed to, so I rebooted it before I left for work. When I got home, I saw that the tablet was completely dead. I plugged it in and saw that it gets stuck at the Asus spinning logo, and it must have been cranking along all day and drained the battery.

I can get to the recovery portion and tried flashing one of the other kernels but still have the same problem. What happened all of a sudden and how should I go about fixing it? And how do I shut this stupid ass thing off? Every time I hold the power button in until it shuts off it just starts back up again.
[Asus Transformer TF700] cullenmq1:
I am by no means an expert on this, but it sounds like you may have corrupted a system file. I would first try to install a rom you have downloaded in recovery (if you dont want to do a factory reset) if that doesnt work or if you are okay with wiping apps (not internal data) go to the wipe menu in twrp and do a factory reset (do not do this from the bootloader). I think there might be a shut off button in the reboot menu in twrp
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
As long as you still can get back to your custom recovery, you are ok. Let try some quick fix to see if you can get it back and run again. Do you know what custom recovery that you are using, Cromi version, kernel version? More information is a lot easier for others to help you out.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Throw in the bootloader version while you're at it. If you have a nandroid backup of your system, restore it and then troubleshoot from there.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berfles:
I'm using TWRP 2.3.3.0, I'll attach the list of kernels I have tried to install (I forget which I had at the time of running, one of the hundsbuah ones though), and I'm not sure which Cromi version I have, can I tell from recovery? It's an older version, I have a 3.2.1 folder on my computer so I think that's the version I'm running.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Wow, that's really old! No wonder you have lag...

You can find the build number and the Kernel you're running under Settings > About Tablet.

My advice would be that you upgrade to CROMi-X, the JB 4.2 based successor of CROMI.

Look for the thread in the development section.

First you would have to flash the 10.6.1.14.8 bbotloader/TWRP 2.5 package from the OP of that thread, boot back into your old rom once, then boot back into TWRP, do a factory reset (highly recommended when you move from a 4.1. rom to 4.2. Back up your apps though, they will get wiped) and then flash CROMi-X.

It's currently on version 4.6.9 but sbdags will release 4.7 pretty soon. And his roms have gotten better from version to version - you won't believe the difference!
[Asus Transformer TF700] berfles:
I can't get it to boot to check the About Tablet section.

My latest nandroid is from April, I'd prefer not to lose all that data if there's anything at all I can do to keep it. I'm assuming just flashing the bootloader and new TWRP won't magically let me boot all of a sudden?
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
Hi there,

You have to be really careful about your situation. You have an old version of custom recovery, TWRP. WHATEVER YOU DO, PLEASE REMEMBER NOT TO INSTALL A NEW ROM VERSION. IT WILL HARDBRICK YOUR DEVICE. IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE. It would be best to wait for an expert to give you a better advise. At a moment, you can try to wipe both caches from your twrp to see if it would work. If you don't have anything important, you can try to restore from your backup. You can try to restore system back up file only to prevent data loss or you can move all your important files to your external SD before restore system, recovery, and data. If none of the above works, please wait patiently for an expert advise. DO NOT INSTALL A NEW ROM VERSION. Good luck.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berfles:
Sounds like I have quite the fun times ahead of me then...

I'm guessing I can move files around with the file manager in TWRP, I think the only things I'd miss would be my pictures and videos. Don't care much about apps really, I can download them again and set them up.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
You do have to install the new bootloader and TWRP 2.5 before you intall a JB 4.2 rom. But that was exactly my advice!

If he/she flashes the bootlaoder/TWRP package from sbdags CROMi-X thread he/she will have a compatible bootloader/recovery combination installed. The 10.6.1.14.8 bootloader runs JB 4.1 based roms without a problem. This was tested and confirmed by _that. It doesn't get more expert than that IMO.

If you're 3.2.x rom is not corrupted it should boot once you have the new bootloader and recovery installed.

If you do a factory reset in TWRP it will delete user installed apps and it's data (to some extent), but not your personal data (files, pictures, movies etc).

Edit: As you unfortunately experience right now: Data not backed up is data not yet lost....

:(

As long as you have a working recovery you are in good shape.

TWRP 2.5 wipes the /data partition when doing a factory reset EXCEPT for the /data/media folder where your personal stuff is stored.

But since I am not sure on the file structure on a JB 4.1 system (it's been a while..), it's a VERY good idea to move your stuff to an external SD card in TWRP before you wipe.

[MENTION=4968172]berndblb[/MENTION], While I tried to reply to this post, you replied at the same time as I did. However, you were one step ahead of me without seeing your post. If I offended you somehow, I have to say sorry. I just want to make sure that he/she to wait for someone likes you to give him/her a good advise. I hoped that this will clear up the confusing. :good:
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
No problem, bud! No offense whatsoever taken! ;)

Misunderstandings happen when cross-posting :sly:
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
If you can adb your last_kmsg or find it in your /proc and post it up, experts can identify your problem a lot easier and be able to help you a lot quicker.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Installing a new ROM with an old recovery is not known to hardbrick your device. Choosing "Wipe data" from the bootloader with an old recovery does, as does any action that forces booting to recovery if the recovery doesn't work. I know that TWRP 2.4.1 and newer are compatible with the 10.6 bootloaders - 2.3.3 may be incompatible.

/proc/last_kmsg is only useful to diagnose kernel crashes (unexpected reboots). To diagnose a hanging boot, we need a logcat from the boot process.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berfles:
I tried moving a file over to my SD card last night and it sat there saying Copying for about 35 minutes. The file wasn't even that big.

So a factory reset would leave me images and whatnot? I have to think about what else I would end up losing if I went that route, make sure there aren't things sitting in places that will be wiped.

Is it possible to do this "logcat" with my tablet in this condition?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Yes you can do a logcat. I would imagine it will report lots of errors with files or the file system

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1726238
[Asus Transformer TF700] berfles:
Well I can see all sorts of stuff scrolling in the logcat but I can't get it to write to a file in ADB for some reason. I'll keep trying.

The main thing I'm seeing is a ton of stuff like this:

D/dalvikvm( 871): GC_CONCURRENT freed 472K, 6% free 10224K/10823K, paused 1ms+6ms
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Did you try "adb logcat -v long > log.txt"

Without the quotation marks of course.

To end the logcat Ctrl + C
[Asus Transformer TF700] berfles:
I did, all I got in my output file was this:

C:\TF700T-ADB-Tool>TITLE Colored Logcat

C:\TF700T-ADB-Tool>mode con:cols=180 lines=50

C:\TF700T-ADB-Tool>call python coloredlogcat.py

125 DEBUG I

Terminate batch job (Y/N)?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
In logcat look for F/ which are fatal errors and E/ errors
[Asus Transformer TF700] berfles:
I couldn't even get that far to be able to search, it was either the constant scrolling cmd window or an empty text file.

After my last post I gave up fro awhile because I'm too paranoid of losing data to try anything. Can I just get a once and for all answer what gets wiped if I do a reset? Just apps and the likes or pictures and stuff? I don't really care about any apps, just pictures, and I can't seem to copy things in TWRP because it just sits there saying "Copying..." forever.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
See my post #10. If you need reassurance go to the TWRP website and check it our yourself.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berfles:
Just tried copying the DCIM directory to external_sdcard and now it rebooted and keeps flashing the teamwin screen.

I'm just going to say screw it and wipe it at this point. Either that or throw it against the wall.

EDIT: Did a factory reset and it booted right up. Looks like all my media is still here, so that's good.

Now to remember how to flash stuff and get CROMI-X on here and updated TWRP.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Glad you got it going. As for flashing CROMiX and such, may I refer you to post #6?
[Asus Transformer TF700] berfles:
Yep, going through that now. Just got TWRP 2.5.0.0 installed. Not as bad as I thought, coming back pretty quickly. Thanks for the help.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
:Good:

Hit the "Thanks" button on my post! I'm not doing this for free! :D
[Asus Transformer TF700] berfles:
Done.

Tablet running CROMI-X 4.7 and all seems well.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] chrisphoenix7:
Our precious OG now has a direct child.

LG G2 will have a 2.3 GHz quad core Snapdragon processor, 2GB of RAM, a 5.2 inch screen at full HD, and a 2540 mAh battery.

Neat things added include the volume rockers centered on the back, dual speakers, and no front physical keys.

I think I may be sticking with LG on this round. If they have better hardware quality control, it sounds perfect. My OG is messed up thanks to quality control. Yellowed screen, dead zones in the screen. Power wise it is fine, but the quality is lacking.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] adfurgerson:
If or when the bootloader gets unlocked I may be getting one. If something nice from Sony comes to AT&T I will also be checking that out.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mikeylikey:
Sony's xperia series has got my attention.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Joecascio2000:
I hope some goodies can be ported. Diamond ball lockscreen ;) ;)
[AT&T LG Optimus G] fleurdelisxliv:
No front keys just take up screen space :( thats the only thing i dont like
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Joecascio2000:
I don't get why people say this. Yes, the on-screen buttons do take screen space but that's why they made the bottom bezel smaller and the screen taller. Plus, if they did put hardware buttons/capacitive buttons they would be way too awkward to hit on the very bottom of the phone. The way around this is to make the screen smaller and the bezel thick enough to place the buttons in a good position. Thus either way you lose screen space. But at least on-screen buttons allow for the option to turn them off when you want and temporarily reclaim the screen space.

This was actually a big gripe I had about the LGOG. The back button is so awkward to push and spaced too far away. I would have much rather they made the screen a little taller and included on-screen buttons. As always, opinions are opinions.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] putsometrebleinit:
This was the only time I've ever been glad to be left handed. And I like the idea of onscreen buttons. To me it makes the pie controls worth it.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] fleurdelisxliv:
Maybe it will be cool, either way i will have one

:)
[AT&T LG Optimus G] zymphad:
5.2" is a huge breaker for me. Already have a tablet, don't need phone to become one. I really hope next year someone will make an awesome phone at 4.7 or smaller, but with great quad, and a camera similar to what Nokia uses, their sensors and stabilizers, better lenses.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dandrumheller:
Absolutely this. Apparently I have mutantly small thumbs or something - I can't reach the whole screen of the LGOG one handed. No bigger for me for a phone. I hate having to compromise on hardware just to get a reasonably sized screen. SGS2 was the perfect physical size.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] adfurgerson:
With the edge to edge screen and lack of capacitive buttons it may not be much bigger than OG.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] OMGMatrix:
I agree somewhat.

If we had gotten the same design as every other variant of the LGOG, It'd be my perfect size. As it stands though, the extra bulk added by AT&T makes it ever so slightly too large for my tastes.

The screen itself is the perfect size for me. Big enough to play games and see past my fingers, big enough to read books & watch videos, but still small enough to reach one-handed. If they could make a phone with No/minimal bezel and the same size screen panel, I'd love it.

I'm not sure about the G2's size, but everything else about it looks stellar.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] anro15:
5.2 just seems to big. I have a small tablet for a reason, my phone should be able to go with me where ever and whatever I do. Not looking like some giant slab that distorts my suit pant pockets.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] adfurgerson:
With the edge to edge display and on screen buttons instead of capacitive keys it may not be much larger overall. In three more days we should know for sure.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] ActionMax09:
From what I have seen the on screen buttons are transparent. However, we need to wait for the real thing to come out. I use to be a capacitive button hog but with all the cool stuff like PIE coming out I may just switch to the dark side.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] anro15:
Interesting to see if they find a way of making it manageable. But I find even the OG uncomfortable for extended periods with one hand, and I have big hands. Hopefully edge to edge screens and shaping like the moto x will make it better. No doubt it will even out to a sweet spot.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] zymphad:
I tried fitting 5.5" phones in my pocket and it feels moronic. I can only imagine 5.2" will be no different. I mean makes me feel stupid for having such a brick in my pocket.

- I don't know why, but the Note 2 has been a huge hit with women I know who have tried it. Must be the same asinine behavior from women who drive monster SUVs when they don't even take the trash to the dump with it, or do any winter sports, or outdoor expeditions (camping, kayaking etc.) Maybe it's the same appeal as having a tote bigger than their upper body...

I'm going to assume dudes who have 5.2" - 5.5" phones are the same dudes who still think it's trendy to wear capris pants and have man purses to carry their "phablet". I assume nothing else beyond that, please don't troll me that.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Clienterror:
The note is more popular with women because they put it in their purse so you won't look as stupid until you talk on it lol. The only way I could see anything over 5 inches working is if they have the screen going edge to edge and it's more of a sub 5 inch body.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] DeathmonkeyGTX:
Yeah the girls I know with note and note 2 leave them in their purses most of the time and utilize bluetooth for voice calls.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] adfurgerson:
Dimensions in mm.

OG 130.8×71.6×8.4

G2 138.5×70.9×8.9

A little over a quarter inch taller.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Billy Madison:
Compare better with direct rival SGS4. Only 2mm taller and 1mm wider with .2" screen size increase and about same weight

Better yet, G2 is the first phone to have in-display solar panels to help increase battery life. No other rival had this option till day. Samsung is years abaft
[AT&T LG Optimus G] ChefAnt:
I'll be buying it. Barely a quarter inch difference? Really people are that set on screen size? Don't get me wrong, 4.8 is a bit big for me still, but 5.2 inch screen in basically the same size phone. what's the gripe?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Billy Madison:
[YOUTUBE]XdHlXKfGM4g[/YOUTUBE]
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Clienterror:
They didn't realize the bezel was thinner so the overall size increase of the phone is relatively minimal. If everything stayed proportionate it would be a lot bigger, that's why he posted the body dimensions
[AT&T LG Optimus G] adfurgerson:
I hope that AT&T doesn't get it's own variant with an oddball shape.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] ActionMax09:
That looks so cool. I hope that the phone isn't plastic. This is my first lg phone and I have enjoyed more then any other devicei have ever had. If the build quality is on par with G1i will be getting it. to be honest thou it looks like it week be plastic. :(
[AT&T LG Optimus G] :
Maybe if the copied the S4 design, they'll copy there update model and give us 4.2 or 3!?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Brave_Fellow:
I agree the size increase is minimal, but my personal opinion is that the current OG is the maximum size comfortable for me. I have pretty big hands too. I already hold the OG in such a way that I have minimum stable grip to maximize finger movement for one handed operation.

The slight increase in size in the G2 is too much for me I think. I'll be curious to see what others say when they do a comparison type review.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] adfurgerson:
Where are you seeing info about solar panels in screen?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Billy Madison:
Here, the guy actually mistaken, he confuse solar with GRAM. But anyway GRAM feature enhances battery life and is missing in any other flagship

Look @ the size increase compared to Optimus G E975 international. Don't forget thought that your E970 has even wider size than E975, like 70mm width. And G2's width is 71mm
[AT&T LG Optimus G] ActionMax09:
I hate getting my fingers on the camera. I guess I am OCD. Everything on this phone looks good but I doubt the buttons under the camera will be of any help to me.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] endeavor2908:
Not sure...

I hate when I hold the phone with one hand and the multi touch thinks Im pressing one side of the screen with part of my hand and the other with my thumb, I don't think that is an issue with a screen this big.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] PhonePhan:
Seriously guys,

I come from the Skyrocket and the iPhone seems tiny and I hate apple for that (and because its closed-source OS)

Now that I have the LGOG everything else seems too small. The Note 3 will be top of the line until the Note 4 comes out, Who can beat that HUGE screen/battery , killer cpu/gpu, ram, almost top of the line camera (which I'm fine at least 8mp anyways so 13mp is great, get a camera if you want more..) 1080p, AND Android 4.3 at launch? WHATTTTT?

Anyways, I got carried away. My thesis? You, WE ALL should be used to bigger screens by now. Am I the only one noticing after having this for a while everything else seems to small or not big enough? People always say "dude that phone is huge" but I don't even notice because I had the OG for only 6-7 months and I don't even want anything smaller at this point , I'm already used to big screens, plus I have kind long hands so the OG feels slightly too small anyways. Pant's pockets are bigger than you think they can fit big things. The Note 3 will shut sh** down for a least a year possibly longer in terms of features/specs. So that's where I'm going. Latest android so I doubt you'll even NEED to flash anything besides just rooting it. Or maybe an optimized stock build ROM. (zip aligned, odexed, etc.)

***Back to the thread topic, I'd also buy the G2. Im suck between the G2 and Galaxy Note 3. I'll just have to demo both phones in-store and see myself. They both are very tempting. Hell might just contract one and buy the other, I've grown on LG with this phone . (and im a college student with a job so i have no bills/kids/wife to financially manage , so yes i can blow 700 on a phone so what judge me idc lol).
[AT&T LG Optimus G] drwario:
I'm going to stick with the lgog. I hope the next nexus is a monster. I realize now if I want to flash away I need a nexus. I can't go for the better looking phone anymore
[AT&T LG Optimus G] adfurgerson:
The U.S. version may not have an SD slot or removable battery like the Korean phones. I am leaning towards the Sony Honami phone it has the specs and Sony has been developer friendly lately.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Billy Madison:
rest assured we'll do the same

As for bigger screens look @ the attachments. If we'd want big-big SMARTPHONE we'd buy LG GPad, it will can has 8,3" size and will compete with Note3 just fine. But I really doubt I need such shovel everyday in my pocket
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Joecascio2000:
So it looks like the G2 will be out September 13, on AT&T. I hope alot of stuff is able to be ported over to the LGOG.

I am with you been refreshing Sony page, hoping they price it right though. They have been know for charging top dollar for their phones. Now that the yen is weak hoping they will capitalize on that and give this phone a price competitively. I just need it to be cheaper than the note 3, if they price it above I lose all interest in it.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] pakole:
