Hi,

I've been trying for a while to go back to the stock. I've read all posts and I am still stuck with the same error.

The LG Mobile Support tool keeps stoping with a "low battery" error message. I've fully charged my device (V500) and keep getting the same error.

Is there a way to get past the "low battery" check on the LG Mobile Tool?

Any help or advice would be much appreciated.

Hello all!

So I am an extreme N00b to smart phones in general, but thought id try my hand at rooting my LS980. I successfully rooted it and installed TWRP Via FreeGee. The phone tried to update the other day and forgetting about the root I allowed it...now its bricked. I can boot into TWRP and that's all. I have tried using this method in this thread to no avail. My phone isn't seen by my computer at all, when I am in USB firmware download mode, the phone progress stays on 0%. The LG tool doesn't see my phone either. I can manually input the model and serial, then it checks the OS and stops saying the phone is not connected to USB. I have installed the drivers on my PC also. I also have the B100, rooted in the lower left side of the screen on the phone. I don't really care about data or anything like that as I haven't had the phone long, and some of the methods seem quite complicated. I'm afraid I bit off more than I can chew here..any help would be great.

It seems that rootcheck tool doesn't have all the files for root checking in some versions of 4.4.2.

To get those files, you should go to 4.2.2 "softroot", make a backup, upgrade to 4.4.2 and put them back in the right place.

It could be this, or not - i'd investigate further.

I am in Vancouver, BC, and we have those ShawOpen wifi network around town.

So here is the problem, when I go around town. My phone will connect to the wifi network around town. It will keep connecting and disconnecting to the wifi and data network. Making my IP phone and IM apps act weird.

Is there anyway to keep both wifi and 4g data on at the same time. I know the old app superpower on xda does it on some roms. but doesnt work on stock Razr HD.

BTW I have a Motorola Razr HD stock 4.1.2 canadian rom (rogers) rooted.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raz0r1911:
That's actually a normal behavior when it comes to Data/Internet, so Android switch automatically to Wi-Fi when you get in range of a stored SSID, and once you get far from it, it will switch back to 4G again and this just a politic about battery saving because 4G consumes more juice than Wi-Fi.

To respond your question I should say there's no way to have both 4G and Wi-Fi connected at the same time because that isn't really suitable (and not Possible?? for a phone at least), and the only workaround I can tell you is to just keep Wi-Fi turned off and use only 4G so you won't get bothered.

Hope that was clear.

[Android Software Development] Goldie:
Hi all

Me and Dazznuts been playing with ripple renderer and found the following to remove the hazy overlay that made dark lockscreen wallpapers look bad on our devices. The mod makes two changes. One to remove the cloud and one to improve ripple visibility on dark walls. We just replace some values with 0x1 and 0x0.

We changed the refractiveIndex because if using a black heavy background the ripple became hard to see. Changing the refractiveIndex makes it refract a greater distance so it will usually pick up some of the colored part of the wallpaper. Using a totally black wallpaper with no image will result in ripple being invisible.

Decompile android.policy.jar and open CircleUnlockRippleRenderer.smali.

Search for this...

.line 159
const v5, 0x3f666666

iput v5, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/sec/CircleUnlockRippleRenderer;->mReductionRate:F

.line 162
const v5, 0x3f6e147b

iput v5, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/sec/CircleUnlockRippleRenderer;->refractiveIndex:F

.line 163
const v5, 0x3e051eb8

iput v5, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/sec/CircleUnlockRippleRenderer;->reflectionRatio:F

.line 164
iput v10, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/sec/CircleUnlockRippleRenderer;->alphaRatio1:F

We need to change refractiveIndex and alphaRatio1. So at this line...

const v5, 0x3f6e147b

iput v5, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/sec/CircleUnlockRippleRenderer;->refractiveIndex:F

Change it to....

const/4 v5, 0x1

iput v5, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/sec/CircleUnlockRippleRenderer;->refractiveIndex:F

That improves ripple and now we remove cloudiness.....

This line...

iput v10, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/sec/CircleUnlockRippleRenderer;->alphaRatio1:F

Becomes...

const/4 v5, 0x0

iput v5, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/sec/CircleUnlockRippleRenderer;->alphaRatio1:F

So full code is....

.line 159
const/4 v5, 0x3f666666

iput v5, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/sec/CircleUnlockRippleRenderer;->mReductionRate:F

.line 162
const v5, 0x1

iput v5, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/sec/CircleUnlockRippleRenderer;->refractiveIndex:F

.line 163
const v5, 0x3e051eb8

iput v5, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/sec/CircleUnlockRippleRenderer;->reflectionRatio:F

const v5, 0x0

.line 164
iput v5, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/sec/CircleUnlockRippleRenderer;->alphaRatio1:F

And thats it. Should work on any device. Renderer may be a little different but post and ask if you're not sure :)

Have fun and please spread the word to your respective devices devs :)
