[G2 General] Ramsey:
I had the S4 and I miss its screen. Both are incredibly sharp and I prefer the 5.2 in. of the G2 over the 5 in. but as for screen quality the S4 wins since it has excellent viewing angles. Both have great colors though, I always use Professional Mode color mode when using an S4. My G2 does not have very good viewing angles, for some weird reason when I tilt it to check 2 of the corners it turns yellowish and when I tilt it to see the other 2 corners it becomes like a cheap TFT screen with dark blue colors where you can't really see anything.

The S4 has a better camera for sure and I miss it, faster to take pictures and nicer quality. However, the G2 takes less blurry shots thanks to the OIS. G2 has better bokeh effect but that's not the most important thing as it only benefits macros and those are not the only shots that I take.

S4 also has better audio quality.

I miss having real keys. I used the HTC Magic for a year, then the S1 for 3 years and a half and then the S4 for half a year. I don't like the navigation bar, it's annoying, takes screen space, even after modding it to be smaller, and it doesn't behave good since sometimes it doesn't go to immersive mode because some developers didn't add that to their apps.

Overall I prefer the G2 as a phone, smoother and better experience, better UI and better LG apps and features, love it!

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ssyyddii:
I'd like to share my experience solving some basic problems with my nexus 4 running cm11, and 10.2

I had problems with the video freezing when shooting video

I wanted to improve the sound quality because I stream google premium and couldn't find a solution until recently

And had a rebooting problem in the end which I solved.

My nexus 4 worked perfectly running cm until I did the 4.3 update in november. After that the video would freeze when I was shooting. wouldn't happen all the time but would happen sometimes. I did everything, factory resets, reinstalling gapps, restoring the camera app, wiping data. Nothing worked. Even updating to cm 11 did nothing to change the situation. After having to go back to stock because of another problem I ran into -- installed Franco kenrnel on cm 11 and they aren't compatible -- I discovered that the video camera was still freezing. So I discovered it had nothing to do with cyanogenmod roms. Someone suggested flashing the separate photosphere gapp package along with the full gapps package and funny enough that solved the problem.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2397942

I don't know if the recent updated photosphere gapp corrected a problem or what. But. Shooting Video now works.

I switched to omni rom because I wanted to use the franco kernel to adjust my sound settings, in my search for sound quality improvement but the omni rom was a real challenge and was plagued with bugs and wasn't for me. But stuck with it because of the franco kernel.

I then discovered that hells-core kernal did the same thing and works with cm11 so switched back to cm11 the stable snapshot version from last week and installed hells-core kernel. My phone started to reboot capriciously every 10 or 15 minutes and tried everything to correct that, eliminated data from apps, fixed permissions -- nothing worked, but finally decided to flash the latest cm nightly to see if the problem wasn't related to the version of the rom I was running .

When I flashed it, I wiped cache partition, delvik cache, and formated data , reflashed full gapp package plus the photosphere gapp. I didn't flash hells-core again. Maybe that was causing the reboots. I don't know. Everything now works perfectly. No more random reboots, the video camera seems to work fine, I discovered that the cm kernerl does have one volume gain adjustment and am now using viper4android effects equalizer that has gain control for both volume, bass and treble and everything is great. and my sound quality is probably as good as it will get on a nexus 4.

I spent an inordinate amount of time trying to resolve these problems so hope this is of some help to others.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richdaley:
Hi All,

I picked up a Defy MB525 on ebay, mostlly to mess with but I need to use it as my daily driver for a while because I am buying a house and my money is tied up for that.

Anyway, it arrived with stock unrooted t-mobile froyo which I am sure you will all agree is unacceptable so i used framroot to root it and installed sndinit 2.3 and followed the instructions in the general section for installing KitKat. I followed the instructions including the note to update the phone to CM10 first which went fine. At one point, I had it running CM10.1 fine but when I installed KitKat, the phone got stuck at the boot screen. The instructions say that it is normal for it to take a long time and you will think you are stuck but I let it sit more than an hour. At that point I thought I was soft bricked so I went back and used RSD Lite to install the t-mobile eclair SBF on it, which is the only one I can find. All links to the Froyo SBF I can find are broken.

That is where I am stuck. When I try to install sndinit, I get no blue light on reboot and on the older versions and I get an SD mount error in the recovery.

I think the probably I am having are related to not having the Froyo firmware installed but when I try to install it the regular way, the phone reboots and I get the triangle with an exclamation point. As I said, I can't find the Froyo SBF. The links I can find are broken and I don't think it is listed here, which is where I found the eclair sbf:

http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=27

My questions are:

Does anyone know where to find the most recent t-mobile sbf file? Do you think that is my problem? If not, what is?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richdaley:
I figured this out if anybody needs to know. I had to do a full system reset then restore the eclair sbf so that the phone is in the exact state it was in out of the box. Then the OTA install worked fine. I am still working on getting KitKat installed. It seems like I need to find the right combination of recovery and rom to get 10.1 installed.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hotdog125:
To install KK, root, 2ndinit, then go to recovery and flash this and reboot - http://d-h.st/dWr. Then after reboot, go back to recovery (don't go back to the system). Then flash this - http://d-h.st/dz8 and immediately flash KK and gapps.

I've just received my fresh new Moto G, and I've been having second thoughts on rooting it. Can anyone convince me on whether or not I should root my phone, thanks!
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creambyemute:
I voted yes.

But to be honest, you should know for yourself. Do you need root? If not I wouldn't consider rooting. If you don't know, read about what you can do with root!

If you want to root, have a look at the guides and tutorials collection in the Moto G General forum.

If you decided to root, but you have problems (not working): Visit the Modaco Forum Modaco Forum and the topics of PaulOBrien. You'll find more up2date information on his rooting methods there. If you try with superboot, see my post on page 7 in the modaco forum if you have problems.

Happy tinkering
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
I purchased the International version for a friend of mine who is not technically savvy. I set up the phone and noticed that there was very little customization and bloatware; therefore, I decided to go without root.

As was mentioned a the previous post, you should ask yourself why you need root. If you can't get what you want without root, go ahead and root it.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brushstroke:
I'd do it, but I wouldn't bother with custom ROMs when they start to become more abundant for this phone. The software on the Moto G is so close to stock that it's not really worth changing. Root, on the other hand, is pretty nice if only for installing AdAway. I did it pretty much solely for this purpose on the new Moto G I got for my dad's birthday because I know he's not very tech savvy and would likely click on one of the ads in a free version of an app.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darth:
Yes....you should only root if any of the above things interest you....if you have a specific reason to root. Otherwise why root.

And a question for you..........should I eat this tuna sandwich? :)

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 72off:
Wait at least 2 weeks to know if you have a defective phone or not, if in 2 weeks you got no problems then consider Root.

Check: screen, camera, USB , Battery...ETC
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theoneofgod:
I say no for now. The whole reason I root phones apart from adaway, is to clear it of crap. The Moto G comes with no crap, and you can always disable installed apps. If you really want the added functionality that root gives then you wouldn't be asking.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cra1g321:
So far i have rooted for the following reasons -

Titanium Backup

Xposed Framework

AdFree

Plus it also gives some antivirus software more features/control.

I say if aren't looking to use particular app that needs Root then don't bother.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frojnd:
I voted Yes even though I haven't rooted it yet (because I have to thoroughly test screen, camera, usb battery), here is why:

- Titanium Backup,

- AdFree

- Tasker

- disabling carier

- adding extra fonts

- adding my locale

- ...other screen tweaks that can't be achieved with non root devices
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksuuk:
Well, it does include Motorola crap, which I can't disable:(. And the main reason for rooting is blocking ads, removing unwanted apps and optimizing phone cpu and memoryusage, no custom roms etc.

I will do it sooner or later, I just have to decide, root 4.3 or wait for 4.4.4 (as seems 4.4.2 is a crap).
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monchee:
Thanks for the suggestions guys, I think I'll try to keep it away from root for like a week. Coming from HTC One X, I really miss having AdAway, Xposed, tinted Status Bar, Greenify, and I'm curious to try that MotoGuide and GravityBox though.

Yeah, I'm not gonna do custom ROMs yet, just thinking of rooting it only.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monchee:

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twister99403:
Honestly this phone gets awesome battery life so I don't think greenify would be necessary however I'm with everyone else, I might root my fiancés just to throw adaway on it :) I personally haven't even rooted my nexus 5 or 7 though and have rooted every other device I've come in contact with. I just think stock android is too nice and it just works without having to worry about force closes and other things that come up with rooting
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darth:
Rooting does not cause force closes...Rom glitches do...or bad apps or settings.

Without root you can't get rid of ads, debloat or customize and add features with xposed.

But if someone didn't care about any of that ....then yes, no need to root. :)
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twister99403:
I should of been more clear no, rooting does not lead to that but if you go into the realm anything a little experimental or even running Roms like CM you are more than likely going to have issues where you can't always just pick up your phone and not worry about anything. I used to be the flashaholic that flashed Roms and tinkered constantly but if you actually have a life, job, kids you run out of time to deal with that. So, all I'm saying is decide what's more important

[G2 General] omegajester:
I currently have a D801 Claro PR variant (same as wind mobile, and for the most part, the Canadian D803's). Thing is, I usually swap roms around on a weekly basis, always using Wootever's now discontinued kernel (as kernels for this device are somewhat limited). My only complaint with all the roms I flashed is that I never got the LTE icon, even when on LTE (I got the 4G icon). I even tried editing the build prop. But alas, the 4G icon was always, apparently decided to stay. Well, yesterday I decided to try Furnace kernel, as it supported my device, and I wanted to try something new. To my surprise, the 4GLTE icon popped up (as well as all the corresponding icons for my device)! I re flashed Wootever's kernel back just to make sure it wasn't luck, and lo and behold, the evil 4G was there, rearing his ugly face, and the LTE icon nowhere to be found.

I really don't know if one thing has to do with another, but I decided to post my findings, as I know that there are many like me that are stuck with the 4G icon while on LTE, and this could prove to be useful to them.
[G2 General] khaytsus:
You forgot to mention what actually matters; is the speed any different?
[G2 General] omegajester:
Nope, this is mostly cosmetical.

Now, I DID see some signal improvement and more constant speeds with the new G update...
[G2 General] pinetreehater:
My Sprint variant did this when I mucked with the bands trying to get Spark in Atlanta. When I enabled all three bands (forgot how...search) the the icons changed. I hated it because the alternate icon took up too much space.

And no, I never saw a speed difference. Matter of fact, enabling the bands had some type of negative effect, but I can not remember what it was. I never saw the new fangled Spark icon, which I guess will be enabled after the much ballyhooed update hits.
