[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SrNiceGuy:
All...

I just wanted to report that my button is "better." I have had my phone for a good couple of weeks and it was definitely "better" but still not as good as the Note 2. I didn't want to respond immediately because I wanted to give it time, but I think now I can safely say that sending it back to Samsung was a complete waste of my time.

Having said that, it wasn't as bad as it was before. But I just wanted to let you guys know what the deal was. Phone is better...but I don't think I would have parted with it for so long.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CalcProgrammer1:
Mine wiggles a tiny bit but it never gets stuck and has a solid clicky feel. Either mine isn't affected or people are getting upset over something incredibly small. It is a physical button so of course it needs some clearance and that is room for it to move a bit.

Same here with international version n9005 at Malaysia. Mine's manufacturing date was January 23th this year, got the phone at 3rd or 4th February
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vagabond67:
Had my white international unlocked version for three weeks now. Never read about this problem anywhere before I got the phone. A few days into using it, I thought the home button sometimes looked misaligned horizontally and sometimes looked alright. I thought it was just my perception until I bumped into some threads about the phenomenon. Last week, got my girlfriend a black (dark gray?) version and I noticed it had the same characteristic. After reading this thread, it does appear this thing is true of most if not all Note 3s. I'm keeping both units. After reading this thread, at least I've confirmed there is nothing to worry about.

I'm surprised myself I'm saying this since I'm generally anal about my devices as I normally spring for the best gadgets money can buy and expect faultless craftsmanship.

What can I do?

I have SuperLuminal ROM

PS: And since I flashed PacMan ROM over my p760, option USB Mass Storage disappeared. So now I can't even connect my phone with official LG software aka PC Suite. I can't even flash KDZ files on my phone.

I have external microSD 16GB

If anyone knows how to solve that stupid problem, please help me. Thanks!

Which mode when you use LG tool to recover your phone. You should put it in S/W update mode.

And for offline flash, if your last firmware is JB, offline program cannot detect your phone in S/W update mode. You must flash ICS u-boot/x-loader first.

Try a factory reset. The procedure is in the phone manual. Something like phone off then power and vol. Down at same time then some other things after that. Heard it works for those who royally screw the pooch.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droid_<3er:
Try IOmonster's method here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2451696

It might just work.

EDIT: actually since you can't get into recovery try a different button combo. Some people say pressing all 3 keys at once works, some say just vol down + power.

Are you sure you had enough battery before flashing TWRP?

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sneaky Elephant:
I did the same thing 2 nights ago. I used flashify to flash TWRP but flashed it as boot file causing it to boot loop into recovery. I had to power the phone off through the TWRP interface. Then, with the phone unplugged and off , I held the volume up button for about 3 seconds before inserting the micro usb cable. Keep holding the volume up button until the phone displays download mode. If your laptop still does not recognize your device, make sure you have the correct drivers installed and verify again. Once you are in download mode and your drivers are installed, you can follow the steps in this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2432476 post to get your phone back to stock. Worked for me and I thought my phone was donezo. Also, I installed cleanrom after I finished the above process and am loving it. Hope that helps you out mate!

Hi guys!

Can I configure the Internet Explorer of my Jam to use athe WAP connection?

I have 100MB free 1 for WAP-GPRS connection a month and I'd like to use them to connect to the internet with the Internet Explorer of my Jam....

Is it possible? How can I configure all the internet connection request to my WAP connection?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] shamus:
yes you can do it, just have to configure WAP gateway IP in proxy setting to port 9001, in connection you have to choose right APN in magician named Access Point and of course login and password

to use wap in IE you have to use wsp:// instead http:// so when you setup your connection properly with proxy gateway on port 9001 or the one your provider use to open wap pages in IE write addresses in this format wsp://wap.name.com

Download and Install LG United Mobile Driver

Download and Install LG Mobile Support Tool​

Boot your phone into download mode:

Put your G2 into download mode by switching it off, hold the Volume up button and insert the usb cable into the phone; wait for the drivers to finish loading if doing it for the first time.​

Start the LG Mobile Support Tool and click on Options -> Upgrade Recovery

It should now download the firmware (about 2gb) and flash it - this may take some time.

This is needed if you stuck in a bootloop after the flash is done:

Factory reset (this wipe your data and sdcard):

1. Turn the phone off.

2. Press and hold the Power and Volume down button.

3. When the LG logo pops up let go for a second and press the combo again.

4. You'll be prompted to press the Power button 3 times to wipe the device.​

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noam23:
I don't understand how could this be, you downloaded the specific firmware for your device (using your serial number)...

Can't you just try to flash it again ?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karstensson:
I have reflashed it 5 times:) The problem was that it asked for some kind of password the first time (not the pin). So I did a factory reset. Now even TWRP says that my storage is 10.66 gb :/
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noam23:
Which password exactly ? when ? in the process of flashing ? the OP mentions no stage in which you need to give password...

What are you going to do now ? your device is not rooted, so you can replace it under warranty, no ?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karstensson:
It did not say what the password was for, just asked for it. It came up after the phone had booted, but before i could see the lockscreen. I will wait a couple of weeks, to check if someone else gets the same problem, or if it is fixable. Otherwise i will hand it in on the warranty since there are not traces of root.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noam23:
Why should a password appear at that stage ???

If you went through all of the flash process successfully, booted successfully and only then did a factory reset (when you saw that password), I see no reason to blame the factory reset that you did. This is something to do with the flash process. Maybe this is kind of a punishment that LG unleash on those who use this process ? :p seriously, why on earth would anyone try to flash his LG2, if it wasn't to get rid of root ? I also don't understand how the password went away after you did hard-reset, since the device was "hard-reset" when you did that flash. You said that you re-flashed about 5 times, did that password appear after each of those 5 times ?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmbardal:
Same issue here.

I also got the question after I used the software to enter my encryptionkey. Wich I didnt have.

So I had to hardreset from the recoverymenu (volume down + pwr), then I suddenly had 10.77GB left instead of 26.77GB or something similar.

Annoys me pretty darn much at the time beeing!

I did use my IMEI, not my serialnumber and model. I'll try to use the serial and model this time around, and see if there are any differences at all in doing so.

And yes, it does say 32GB on the back. So we're not mistaken it for a 16GB-model :p

And it does say that the model is the 32GB when I check the hardware-info on the android itself.

Maybe this has something to do with me using the adbcommand for mounting storage incorrectly?

I thought however it would be reset when I used the LG Mobile Support Tool to hardreset everything though.

Lg Ls980 bricked

I Have been working on Sim unlocking my LG Ls980 (sprint G2)

it is rooted and i successfully got the files to load that unlock gsm capability

additionally i have loaded the apns-conf xml file to make apns stick.

i was installing cwrm and making changes using rootmanager

pretty sure that when i changed these settings i caused a brick

ro.carrier=spr

ro.build.target_operator=spr

persist.service.crash.enable=1

forum used >> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2729370

i couldnt find the ro.carrier setting so i didnt change it

when i restarted device immediately after these changesi get to an lg welcome/setup screen with emergency dialing capability.

i have considered the obvious lg mobile tools but it says i have the latest software version ,therefore it doesnt offer me the opportunity to flash the newest (or any) firmware

ive considered i might have to wait until there is a newer one available to upgrade to but who wants to wait.

additionally i have read into hemidall which isnt for lg devices and jtag which is wayy too in depth to unbrick a $50 motherboard

Suggestions?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asialove2013:
Unbrick LS980

Solution:

First, There is no KDZ file available for LS980 via LG Mobile Support Tool

If you query the kdz file with your IMEI (the tricks you might already know), There is not KDZ,

So you can not use this LG Tool to recover your Phone.

Second. You need to flash stock TOT/DLL firmware with LG Flash Tool.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asialove2013:

Did you find the solution now? Download the kdz file and use KDZ update tool to flash the kdz firmware

I just did this and it worked beautifully. I decided to go back to stock, re-root, flash a new recovery and then re-flash the latest G3 port. I've read for the vs980 that is particularly important. Well, my PC wouldn't recognize my phone with the initial g3 port. So, I copied all my files directly to a 64gb thumb drive, then restored my original stock 4.2.2 nandroid backup. That caused a bootloop but at least my computer recognized my phone. So, I ran this program and it restored 4.4.2 directly from LG. I didn't even need to do a hard reset. Amazing actually. It was easy. Thanks!
