Has anyone here used a ver 10d before going to 10e? I really would appreciate to know if the camera has improved from 10d. And also if I'm now on a Malaysian 10d, which country's 10e version is the best to upgrade to? Thanks
[G2 General] LenAsh:
The German version is EUR, so no issues. I went from the "UK" 10B to the "German" 10E with no regrets at all... all good.

Just make sure you use the .kdz method AFTER a full factory reset (using the phone menu in factory reset option in Settings>Backup and Restore menu) and do NOT use the ROM dump versions as they are only partial updates.
[G2 General] Zulake:
I just flashed to 10e without any factory resets or whatever, it upgraded fine and all is still there.

Should I still factory reset it, even though all seems to be working fine?

Camera is the same version as on 10a by the way.

Only difference I noticed is that there seems to be a lot more microstutter and lag.
[G2 General] LenAsh:
That's why you must reset BEFORE flashing... you end up with a hybrid mess.

The camera libs, firmware and the apk are updated, see my list of changed files a few pages back.
[G2 General] Zulake:
Heh, whoops. So, what now? Factory reset it and re-flash 10e?
[G2 General] mab71:
Do you mean the factory reset option in Settings>Backup and Restore menu??
[G2 General] Zulake:
Oh wow. I factory resetted it and it now shows B99 - UNROOTED instead of B100 - ROOTED in download mode! :eek:

Well, nice to know a way to reset the tripper.

Reset is done, gonna re-flash 10e now.
[G2 General] LenAsh:
Yes, sorry, had a brainfart....!

Corrected now... cheers
[G2 General] mab71:
Lol.. Its ok. About the reset, so do i have to do a before and after our just a reset before is sufficient?
[G2 General] LenAsh:
Just the before one.

I then rooted once running with IOROOT. Perfect.
[G2 General] Nussi29:
Perfect

[G2 General] :
It will show your original "version" no matter what you flash..
[G2 General] boldonc:
The 16g firmware version not good for LG G2 32 GB?

What is the difference...?
[G2 General] Fir3blade:
No difference, just flash ;)

Via LG G2
[G2 General] LenAsh:
Depends what you flashed - I can change mine to AME or SEA...
[G2 General] boldonc:
Are you sure?
[G2 General] LenAsh:
I'm with you... there are 16GB versions for good reason.
[G2 General] mab71:
Last question, are there many methods of flashing a .kdz file or just one?
[G2 General] Zulake:
I do have the idea that battery life is at least twice worse than 10a. On 10a I reached 4 days easily with 5-6 hours of screen on time, the battery seems to drain way faster now on 10e, 1 hour of screen on time and I'm down to 59% where I would still be on 97% on 10a with 1 hour of screen on time. I think I'm going back.

//Edit: Well, crap. Doing a factory reset and flashing 10a resulted in a phone which now spams errors like "Unfortunately process com.android.phone stopped" together with com.android.acore. :(

It does so straight after booting, on the screen where I should enter the pincode.

Reflashing it does not work. Urgh.

Also, what's with that number in the box right above where it shows rooted or unrooted? It's B56 now, I remember seeing B100, B99, B98, B76 etc.

//Edit 2: Reflashing 10e solved the errors, but meh. I want 10a.
[G2 General] Sean473:
You can do 1 thing... Root and use the battery calibration app from google play. When you flash ROM, battery stats can be corrupted so when your'e charged to 100% and rooted, it will reset the file... Then just use your phone normally to about 10-20% and recharge...
[G2 General] Zulake:
Oh wait, I get it. The B<number> is the battery level?

Then it's correct, the battery was around 56% when I was fiddling around. Clear, thanks!
[G2 General] mab71:
Maybe you need to do another reset after the flash
[G2 General] Zulake:
Impossible if I can't even get past the pincode screen. :silly:

Reflashing 10e solved it, but it didn't solve my problem about what I wanted. Oh well.
[G2 General] mab71:
Don't you know how to hard reset from recovery?
[G2 General] chaki-:
It was never 4 days with 5-6hrs screen time.

With 10a was something like 45hrs with 5hrs screen on time. :D

And even now with 10e is the same, nothing changed....
[G2 General] mab71:
I really need to know if the camera has improved in 10e from the one in 10d...if not then I'll be just wasting my time in upgrading... Anyone??
[G2 General] Milomannen:
The camera is The same **** in 10e. Its impossible to get sharp images at moving motives.
[G2 General] x714x:
Just because the camera apk hasnt changed doesnt mean the libs/xml settings havent
[G2 General] mhoss48:
Heyy, i bought this phone 3 days ago. Am liking it so much. But.concerning this update will it work in D80210c. ?
[G2 General] Zulake:
I tried that, but I can't get recovery to boot. It simply boots up normally instead of going to recovery.

Anyway I'm back to 10e, phone is alive and I guess I'll leave it till kitkat lands.
[G2 General] Sean473:
Like I suggested earlier, root and do the battery calibration... I did that after installing 10e and my battery life was definitely better than on 10b....
[G2 General] LenAsh:
Battery Calibration??? Not sure that's even possible post - ICS era, Placebo apps abound. Hence no "clear battery stats" in recovery since way back when.

The only documented way is to use the phone normally (charge fully once by USB, then just use the phone).

Agree that 10E, once all the unnecessary LG chaff is removed, is easy on battery,
[G2 General] Sean473:
It is no placebo... You need to root to do it and that is the only issue with this...
[G2 General] robogo1982:
It's pretty much placebo.
[G2 General] Cienight:
Still no love from Vodafone.de

Its really a shame because i want the 80210e update cause of the added box integration.
[G2 General] robogo1982:
Anyone else noticed some differences between this and 10b? I could swear this ROM has a somewhat lower battery life than, say, 10b.
[G2 General] LenAsh:
What does "lower" mean? I get similar battery life, better when removing any Google PWL inducing apps...
[G2 General] robogo1982:
Some 10-15% less time.
[G2 General] LenAsh:
Check apps for PWLs - as always. Easy to blame the ROM/kernel for app misbehaviour. Also, give it a few usage/charge cycles.
[G2 General] mab71:
Sorry but what does PWL's mean?
[G2 General] Technoboi:
Updates

So I currently have the following installed:

I connected my phone using the Support Tool and it actually says an update is available but each time I try to upgrade I get the following after a few seconds:

I also downloaded the D80210E file and was going to flash but was just curious why the tool is acting wonky? I also can't seem to find an Update option anywhere in the About Phone section of the handset itself.
[G2 General] LenAsh:

[G2 General] cjason:
Battery life on D80210e.

Not a very heavy usage because I lack the time but seems pretty good to me.
[G2 General] mab71:
Wow... Care to share your list of removed bloatware/frozen apps/settings?
[G2 General] cjason:
Stopped services in taskman:

-email

Disabled apps:

-cell broadcast

-chrome (I use Dolphin and stock browser)

-gmail (I use Aquamail)

-google play books, games, magazines, music

-google +

-hangouts

-lifesquare

Uninstalled apps:

-safety care

-home theme - marshmallow

-videoguide

But, as I said, the usage wasn't heavy and no mobile data used in that time interval shown in screenshots.

When the screen was on (around 6h) the wifi was also on (browsing, installing apps etc.)

Brightness - auto (the slider is at 60% but I don't think this matter).

GPS, NFC - off.

Auto sync - on.

Facebook stuff installed but not logged in yet so those apps may or may not be less active and suck less power.

Also, there was some OTG activity with my Meenova card reader (2 backups using LG app, copied around 4GB form card to phone).

That's all :)

For now I do not need to use my phone very much but I will post some feedback when I will return to work (8-9h mobile data, mail, browsing, some music and videoclips (Youtube), maybe some GPS, apps updates if needed etc.)
[G2 General] mab71:
Have you noticed any stuttering when swiping the app drawer in the lg launcher? I'm on 10b and I've noticed some. One funny thing i found is that when busybox is installed, the stutters seems to go away. Don't really know for sure though.
[G2 General] Zulake:
Is it even possible to flash from 10e to 10a? Because last time I tried it did flash, but I got tons of errors popping up right after boot.

Anyone able and willing to guide me through it? :)
[G2 General] mab71:
I managed everytime. Yes, you'll get many fc's but the secret is to hold the power button down until the phone completely shuts down. Make sure you're not connected via usb. Once properly off, go into recovery to factory reset according to the instructions in the OP.
[G2 General] Zulake:
Hmm okay. Although I can't do that. I tried it before but it does not work and just boots the phone the normal way.

//Edit: Aaaaaaah, they never said you have to press volume down + power AGAIN right after the LG logo pops up. I just kept holding it down.
[G2 General] mab71:
The trick is you press and hold the volume down button, then press and hold the power button, once the lg sign comes on, release the power button and press it again... Without releasing the volume down. Let go of both once the reset screen appears
[G2 General] Zulake:
Yeah, that's the problem. They never said anything about pressing it twice.

Will try flashing tonight. :)
[G2 General] mab71:
Yeah... Lucky i found a video guide on a website that helped me through the process. You can find it too... Just google 'the unlockr'
[G2 General] gm007:

Delay in screenlock and softkey glowing up after reboot in cm 11 by maclaw

Anyone experiencing it ??
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tys0n:
Yes, screenlock is delayed and sometimes laggy, but thats normal I guess. There's a lot of activity on phone while booting. CPU can be at max speed for about 5 mins upon boot.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GXGOW:
Don't worry. This happens on every ROM (not that long though). It'll normally go away after a few minutes.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FelipeMalagon:
That happens to me in stock after I recover my phone of a softbrick, but since I flash the Maclaw's CM ROMs I've never experienced that before. (Sorry for my bad english)

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] lbendlin:
US GSM comes in two flavors 1900 MHz (T-Mobile) and 850 MHz (Cingular). So for example if you are in north east Texas you need a 850 device, in big cities a 1900 device.

If you remember your physics class in school - the higher the frequency the shorter the range.

Very Durable

They are very durable phones. I just revived one that was soft-bricked and cast aside almost a year ago. I was able to do this w/o utilizing Windows or Odin. Linux and Heimdall worked perfectly.

I will probably use it offline as a media and navigation device. I use several open-source apps that use map files installed on the phone and therefore do not need a data connection, only a functioning GPS.

It could also serve as a back up phone if I have trouble with my SGS3, I'm still on AT&T. I could also use it or allow a family member to use it on the Straight Talk network.
[Captivate General] Capz11:
I use this phone more than 3 years. It is very reliable device, phone fell down to the floor many times but works perfectly;)

dawgdoc how you fixed GPS? It is weak point of Cappy
[Captivate General] dawgdoc:
I use it while doing 50 to 70 mile rides on my bicycle. I'm not moving more than 20 mph / 32 kph so it does acceptably for my purposes.

There have been a few downhills where I exceed 50 mph, but they are rare.
[Captivate General] ngntuonghuy:
The design of this phone is perfect! I have been using it for more than a year. However, sometimes, the touch screen responsiveness is poor, and GPS catching is so slow that make me disappointed :(.
[Captivate General] dawgdoc:
I haven't started using the Cappy while on my bike since reviving it, but that is one of my intended uses for it.

When I was on Eclair and Froyo the GPS was definitely bad. It was a bit better after the Gingerbread upgrade. After switching to CM9 and periodically updating A-GPS with GPS Status by MobiWIA from the Play Store there was some more improvement. I seem to recall also using another GPS adjuster, but I don't recall what it was. In short, it improved but was never great.
[Captivate General] miscrap:
I use my old Cappy for geocaching with an external Bluetooth GPS.
[Captivate General] dawgdoc:
I had good results with the GPS on my cappy today, but the way I used it may not suit your needs.

A few days ago I was setting at sitting at a plate glass window in a fast food place and detected a couple of satellites but never connected. It was a very rainy and overcast while I was trying to do this. This result was not greatly different than in the past. Back then I could sometimes get connected to a couple of satellites on a clear day when by a window. At the same time that I was messing with my Cappy, on my SGS3 I connected to 17 of 21 satellites in very little time. I had just updated a-GPS data on both phones, WiFi was turned off on both.

Today, I started the day with a fully charged battery on the cappy. As a matter of routine I turn off WiFi and data services unless I am using them, that held true for most of today. I was using the GPS as a bike computer, tracking time, distance, speed, and other variables while creating a track. I used the GPS for just over 3.5 hours. At the end of the day the battery was still at 56%, this is the original battery that was in the phone when I bought it in Nov 2010. Relative battery consumption for the day: Bike app - 42%, Display - 12%, Music player - 12%, phone idle - 10%, gpsd (GPS core) - 8%. Media server - 5%, and other lower consumption items.

The big caveat is that the display was off for almost all of the time the GPS was in use. I was tracking my bicycle ride, I was not using the device to navigate. The app I was using did have voice features active. It didn't take very long to connect this morning or this evening, but it was at least 30 seconds each time.

Part of the reason I resurrected this device was to use in tracking bicycle rides. I am very happy with the results of today's GPS use.

New Cappy User, I apologize if this is hi-jacking your thread.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamel_tza:
You wouldn't happen to have a cracked screen would you? There's a chance that there is a problem with your digitizer. The digitizer is what is responsible for registering touch events/input on the screen. One way to check if its the digitizer is to download an app that's similar to Paint on windows. For an old phone of mine I used an App called Sketch Artist..or something of the sort.

While making the drawing drag your finger along the screen in every direction, try to color in the whole screen. If there is anywhere on the screen that isn't responding to touch input then that is the part of the screen that may be perpetually derped.

It should be noted that you don't necessarily have to drop your device in order to have a derped digitizer, sometimes its just something that develops over time.

Hello,

Have a very strange issue with my 2012 Nexus, it seems to have a bootloop issue happening where it starts up and after 5-10 seconds restarts, I see the white google logo & perhaps a small bit of the animation (the four circles one for 4.4). This happens if I go into the bootloader too (anywhere in fact)

Oddly I've found if I hold volume down constantly it goes away and the devices boots up but only into safe mode for some reason. I can get into the bootloader & TWRP etc, but I do have do constantly hold volume down to do anything, as soon as I let go I get 5-10 seconds and it restarts.

Currently the device will only turn on if I plug it in to any USB (PC or original 2V charger)

Any ideas or help would be appreciated, I can't see anyone else anywhere having the same issues & I'm not sure Google or Asus would take it back now.
