Keep signing people,

I'm not going to give up until we get a proper contact and discussion from HTC even if it means that I'll have to blackmail them to death and I take full responsibility of my words above

. They have to understand that ignoring their costumers is not an act that -is- or -ever going to be- tolerated. If they can't stand the heat or can't be proper partipants in the Android universe, the door to exit the industry is wide open...

Give them a bad time and keep signing...
[HTC EVO 3D] JumperM:
But is a 3D camera driver helpful or didn't we need a "complete" driver pack for 4.3 or 4.4 like the chipset driver for a motherboard?!
[HTC EVO 3D] VIRGIN KLM:
Just the source code of the drivers (ION).

[HTC EVO 3D] VIRGIN KLM:
Keep signing people, make HTC feel discomfort until it HAS to give an answer. Thanks to everybody that supports it so far. Android community is the best, really.
[HTC EVO 3D] JumperM:
You are right to want the source code for a ION driver. But thats the problem. HTC get the driver from Qualcomm. And its Qualcomm decision to develop the driver and support the driver to HTC... Where do you know that HTC has the ION driver for the Qualcomm CPU in the Evo3D?
[HTC EVO 3D] VIRGIN KLM:
All things in driver petitions are like that, I know it already and if it has been done countless times for other drivers, HTC EVO 3D's 3D driver makes no candidate for exception.

[HTC EVO 3D] VIRGIN KLM:
Almost a year after I want to thank everybody who has participated so far and say that I'm not giving up on this, not now, not in one year, not in 10. I'm gonna bug HTC and Qualcomm to death until the source gets released. These companies really make it a bigger deal than it really is to release the sources.

I'd really hope xda staff could help me spreading the word for it, it's something that has potential in the Android community and something that if we could achieve would be big news.

also signed (thought i already had !)

also Tweeted

https://twitter.com/gadget78/status/705528200194093063

and facebooked it, just in the hope to get some kinda viral social thing going ! haha !

also gotta remember they are now heavily pushing the HTC_Vive which is also 3D based,

maybe thats a reason why they haven't let slip the source, would that harm that ? maybe (dreaming here) they DO have another 3D phone planned ! ?

either way we can use the HTC_Vive talk by them to get some kinda platform to get heard!

as they not still supporting their current/last 3D project why would be we go in for their new one etc ...

get that kinda angle on all there media outlets etc ! get our voices heard ! make them listen !

would be awesome to get 3D functions in newer build !

as the hardware is still vary capable !

so dont want my daily device to go under :(

(also it seems they are now making good money 2nd hand, as im trying to get a spare! )
[HTC EVO 3D] Jay@DoverR&D:
I signed up (Sorry its so late) I'm still a big fan of the 3D and get a charge out of showing mine to people. Plus its got great audio (Versus my Brothers Samsung) and you can replace the battery (Or take it out if you don't want the three letter people monitoring you) *Adjusts Tin Foil hat.

Is there the slightest chance of just reverse engineering this? I've done that with display driver code once but I've no idea what we are talking about with Android phones. It seems amazing to me that Qualcomm or whoever has no published documentation on all of their chip sets. Do THEY write all the code? Is the code maybe just so bad (No comments - written by a large group of goons) that they don't want anyone to see it?

Does anyone know where there are good links to some of the Roms people made for the 3D. Everything I click takes me to a 404 or an annoying advert for some crap I don't want.
[HTC EVO 3D] bigsupersquid:
I started a thread about my stab towards 3d interlacing HW acceleration.

baby steps yet, but the GLSurfaceView with interlacing fragment shader looks pretty good, fairly simple, and is fast.

Anybody wants to develop on it, feel free to contribute to the github project

Still just proof of concept, not even a random image viewer, just one built in image at a time. Needs added features and yet more tweaking.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daniel178:
Hello,

I am using a rooted (stock) LG G2. I like the Voice Notifications (under Settings > Sound) feature, which reads aloud who is calling. It used to work perfectly, but just all of a sudden, the voice's pronunciation became all screwy. When Lisa is calling, is says "Liza." When Denise calls, it says "Denize." When Joe calls, it says "Joe-ie." When James calls, it says "Jame-es." And so on.

Is there a way to improve the voice when it is reading the callers' names?

I am on 4.2.2.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] shadowcore:
Just as the title says. This phone hasnt gotten the best of time really, its just been 1.5 years and it got replaced by Optimus G, Optimus Gpro, optimus G2 and other iterations of LG. WHat makes me kinda weary is how bad this is compared to the likes of S3. I mean that phone got the 4.22 and still has a n active community, I hardly see any posts here.

I percieve this as unfair because this phone, i feel, is better than some if not all midrange phones that are available today. Some people got shafted by issues such as dust underscreen but I never had that problem.

Would this phone still be a good buy compared to a midrange phone such as Moto G? The moto g is cheap and powerful but what about build quality?

I must say, the moto g is the only midrange phone that is extremely worth to what it is offering, most midrange phones new or old are too expensive compared to old flagships, like comparing the S4 mini with our phone...

I think that too many phones are pumped out just for the heck of it. There is no real evolution compared to last year.

Bigger sizes + lots of gimmicks that could easily be added with a software update and so on.Most seem to have bigger batteries and beter screens but heck, I can buy a bigger battery and the higher PPI does not bother me because I cant see individual pixels...So, whats the point in upgrading?

The only phone that seems innovative on LGs side is the G flex, it seems both from the material side and the way it looks as a change that is noticable and useful.

You know, I wish old flagships at least did not die because 500 other flagships got released. Things age too quicly.

And no, apple is not the answer. i cant stand apple products... I hate their design,iOS and their pricing is ridiculous.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] nomancoolboy:
Yes ..this phone was the most under rated phone .

Its actually better than s3 ...

Feeling sad for the 4x hd users ..

Shame on you LG ...:mad:

They haven't even provided software updates
[LG Optimus 4X HD] wesley18:
Yep

I'm getting the Samsung Galaxy S4 mini soon (read 2 weeks), just because i want a phone with the same price range (~300 euros) and one which does actually gets new updates
[LG Optimus 4X HD] inigagah:
The problem with this phone is due too LG releasing too many top of the lines model at very rapid succession. Plus most Android manufacturer are too focused on their hardware and less on the software, making continuous software updates not exactly a priority. Samsung seems to be aware of this and are improving whilst LG & HTC are still in this trajectory. Sad, really. This phone is really good but the software is holding it back.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] brunek:
This is business! They put out, back to back, new phones and neglect software updates so that we, stupid consumers, could spend money on the new phone! If they update software for a great period of time, there would be no need for new phones and technologies and they would ran out of business! Simple as that...
[LG Optimus 4X HD] inigagah:
Apple made 3 year old phones that are still compatible with the latest software updates, also the latest iDevices have less ram than the latest android whilst also ran faster. The problem in android's core engineering used to made manufacturers reluctant to update their software since the hw might not be able to handle the software. But then Jelly Bean came out and ran faster in older devices, and things should change accordingly. But they're not. So yes, it might be their business mindset that needs to change.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] faabak:
I agree to this.. Someone mentioned that they even can get KK 4.4 on their Samsung Galaxy 1!

I'm also thinking about buying a new phone, but it's sad since the Optimus 4X is a good phone! I don't want a phone with the actionbar or what they call it (the back, home and menu buttons on-screen). And IF you gonna buy a new phone these days, i'm thinking it's smart to go for a phone with 1080x1920 screen. :) I'm thinking HTC One..

[LG Optimus 4X HD] faabak:
I've noticed the problem with the battery drain as well, but only the last 2 months or so.. I run official CM10.1.3 stable, dunno if that's worse than CM10.2.. Kinda made me wonder lately!
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Androidmarketuser:
Don't buy a new phone.

The industry wants you to think that you have to upgrade your phone every year, but really, what are you missing?

Is it that important to have 480ppi instead of 320 although you can't really tell a big difference? Is it necessary that your processor is twice as fast, although you can play pretty much every game completely lag free?

Back in the days people had their cellphone for many years, they were solid and bug-free. I think it isn't good to support the development of the ever-growing mobile industry, this isn't good for the environment and it isn't good for your purse ;)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Maczuga:
Surely our beloved phone got old too fast, but I guess it's perfect time to sell it for quite higher price and add about 35$ (in Poland) to get for example SGS 3. Then you'll get much better support from almost all sources (SGS 3 is receiving official 4.3, so..). I really hoped that our O4X would be easily developed by any dev, but now when I see that we won't even receive 3.4 kernel with OTG capability I must say, that in my opinion we already have our peak of developement (of course I know that unofficial 4.4 is comming, but for me there is no diffrence with causal kernel).
[LG Optimus 4X HD] black@pirate:
Why would you buy a s3?? I mean it is also an old device with similar capabilities. Nexus 5 or even a nexus 4 seems like a better choice. But, for god's sake guys, did you buy phones for development purposes or to use, which, in my case, I bought it to use as a smartphone and it hasn't disappoint me too much, exact, may be other than battery.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] XxXDarknessXxX:
I wont buy an other phone, I will stick to this at least for more 2 years.

I've saved up too much for this and I have the confidence in our developers.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Maczuga:
Both Nexus phones doesn't have SD card slot, so it's not worth me, currently I'm using built-in 16GB + 32GB card, also N4 - tegra, and here it costs around 500$, nexus 5 - 700$ (sick pricing). I need a phone that would in some cases replace a PC, so OTG is must have. I wanted to stick to this phone for 2 years, but for now it's impossible, and I really liked this device, it looks so beautiful.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] black@pirate:
Inside N4, theee is a freaking s4 pro with adreno 320 not tegra :D and seriously where would you live so that nexus devices cost that much? I live in south east Asia and nexus 5 - 500$, N4 -300$. BTW, nexus 5 does support USB otg.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Maczuga:
In Poland we don't have Play Store with phones, just apps. We have to buy it from local stores, where pricing is like you see.

This will be my last phone of LG...Had HTC Trophy 7 before this one and it received updates regulary issued by Microsoft. Now I have this phone which on paper is amazing and its good in RL too, but I am stuck with old version of Android just because LG wont bother their overpaid devs to release new versions. So basically my LG is in graveyard regarding software. Next time I will go either with Nexus line from Google or go back to MS...at least when they upgrade system all manufacturers receive it...
[LG Optimus 4X HD] yrxe:
Just shortly. The only thing i am missing probably is battery of something like 3000mAh.

Everything else fits price and in compare with other phones is just perfect.

You shouldnt request full developers forum as this phone is not a popular model. However with such users population it is just great to have at least few devs!!!!

For those who talk about MS. Probably that is wrong forum to talk about it...
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Nalefyre:
Not him but:

I live in Finland where nexus 4 is 400€ and nexus 5 is 500€, Optimus 4x HD is 250€. It's the prefect phone for its price! If Moto G comes here for the price of <250€ it's the only other phone i'd be willing to pay for right now.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] baltobalto:
OK...Lets be honest.The reason is that our phone has four problems.

1.GPS

2.Camera

3.Battery

4.Tegra 3

End of story...
[LG Optimus 4X HD] EB20XY:
I think thats wrong.

Only tegra3 is partitionally a negative point. But perhaps there will come new libs for other devices next weeks and all will be fine.

Also the devs did great jobs these days (4.4.2 port etc.).

So, there is no reason to be too negative ... :fingers-crossed:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] shadowcore:
Well, I dont care about GPS, but the camera can be fixed by disabling in phone noise reduction, made the camera for me much better.

Dont know about you, but my phone just held its own after listening to music for 8 hours and the phone was for another 6-7 hours on standby, and only got down to 50%, I do use a custom rom though and the battery can be extended, so yeah, irrelevant for me.

Tegra 3...I dont game so I dont care about that. I took this thing mostly for the screen. I dont see the point in getting a 2.5 Ghz S800 qualcomm powered phone for mere browsing and watching videos.

Nexus devices have terrible build quality, yes. If you guys want proof, just head over the nexus 5 defects thread, lots of people complaing about dust under screen, dead pixels, defect phone vibrator. And yes, nexus devices cost a fortune if your country does not have Google play store,

€500 is not a myth for the N5.

You know, my next phone will be a Nokia Lumia and want to try the WP OS for once ...if ever microsoft or nokia decides to put microSD slots in their devices. and they decide to fix their OS issuies, and a removable battery would also be a blessing. Of course they wont do that so, its only samsung or Noname right now for people who want microSD slots and removable batteries.

10 years from now, they will release phones with closed displays because the display "Ruins" design...(<- Sarcasm)

LG dropped the ball and keeps doing it

1st of all I want to say that even though we have few developers compared to other more mainstream phones, they are freaking amazing. But the truth is that LG could have done a better job with this phone and also with the support.

The issues that I have experienced and read from reviews or others:

1- Camera: OMG does the camera pisses me off. I tried more than 20 of the best camera apps and the photos I get are still sub par compared to the photos I used to get from my Galaxy S2. For that alone, I regret choosing this vs. another phone. Every time I have to take like 5 photos because either they don't save some times, the app I am using has issue with the flash and auto focus (known issue) or the photo quality is just not there. I tried all the fixes, and maybe I am a bit demanding from a camera on a phone, but even the photos people post as great on this phone, I find lacking. Before looking at all the posted photos, I really thought my phone was defective, it turns out that the camera just sucks on this phone.

2- SD card data transfers: Unless you are on a stock ROM, try to save GB's of music to your SD card via USB cable. It just sucks. From freezes to random crashes, I just switch to a nandroid backup of the stock ROM to do any large data transfer to the SD.

3- GPS: So much potential, wasted. I have to say, it got better with the help of tweaks from the forum, but still disappointed at the beginning. On a positive, WAY better than on the Galaxy S2.

4- Battery: While it is true that I get very good battery life out of my device (almost 2 days with light to medium use using Automagic Automation to save on battery), it is still disappointing since this device has the hardware to be able to be even better at saving battery. I guess the Tegra implementation is not the best on this phone.

5- Audio: I am very picky with the audio, and this device noise levels (you can see the tests done on GSMArena) are the worst. Pair that with the issue that I have with my AKG 450 headphones and some interference noise ONLY WITH THIS DEVICE (the headphones are fine, tested them on other phones and systems) and I guess what I'm saying is that LG will not be the brand of my next phone.

For those thinking about a GS3, you should know that they have a LOT of issues, from overheating, camera issues, the Insane memory problem, random deaths and the disaster that the 4.3 update has been. A friend HATES her phone after the update.
