Whats your avg data usage on with unlimited line?

Would you please retest both phones side by side, one after the other (not at exact same time).

Then swap sims and repeat the test. Thanks.
[Droid Ultra General] distortedloop:
Never more than 5 gb, usually 3-4. I've only used 1.23 go the first 10 days of the current billing cycle.

The two phones have ran similar scores side by side and back to back often enough to tell me it's not a hardware difference.

Swapping SIM cards not practical since the Motorola uses nano SIM and the LG uses micro.

I might be able to pull the Unlimited data micro SIM in my Nexus 7 to test in the LG. . That account averages 5-10 go per month.

Just as a point of interest I just ran speed test on both phones again, waiting for one to finish before starting the other. The Unlimited Motorola had a blistering 1.65 downstream versus 10.40 in the G3.
[Droid Ultra General] jfriend33:
I would go to Verizon right away and ask for a new SIM card. Make sure that the representative doesn't handle any of the contacts with their hands. That may fix your problem.
[Droid Ultra General] distortedloop:
This is a new SIM.

I did the SIM swap thing.

I ran three tests in the LG with Tiered SIM, followed by 5 tests with the Unlimited SIM, fooled by 3 more with the Tiered back in the phone.

Tiered SIM averaging 6.23.

Unlimited averaging 2.49.

Even Tiered those aren't great speeds, but I'm on the edge of town where the signal isn't all that strong.

It really feels like both my Unlimited SIM are being throttled. Not always, but more often than not.

I wonder how many of those complaining of poor speeds on VZW are actually being throttled.

Oh, and on the Nexus 7 with the Tiered SIM I was averaging about 4.30 versus 1.10 with the Unlimited SIM.
[Droid Ultra General] aviwdoowks:
I think the 3g/4g? throttle is in data/system or there about. Has throttle in the name. I am not rooted.

Thanks for the link. I'd heard of, but forgotten about, this hack in the past.

There's nothing called Throttle in my /data/system folder.
[Droid Ultra General] kitcostantino:
initially reading tbis, i thought VZW's plan to throttle may have gone into effect. Reading up again, i found this is not the case anymore. http://www.theverge.com/2014/10/1/6882339/verizon-calls-off-throttling-unlimited-lte-data . So I decided to test mine for comparison.

-Unlimited data grandfathered in since 08 (samsung omnia pos)

-i have used as much as 30gb of data/month. Average is 10-12gb/month

-Droid Maxx Dev Edition

-Running OSE 10-6 moto_msm8960dt build (drdevs)

-i live in Upstate SC (nearest large city is Greenville which is an hour away, so BFE)

-Speedtest yields-test a) 36.33 mb/s down 13.58 mb/s up

test b) 41.04 mb/s down 9.77 mb/s up

test c) 52.39 mb/s down 9.22 mb/s up

http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/a/1001807050 (just in case anyone calls FOS)

I received my sim with my phone (from Motorola) and had to call to switch from my account to the nano sim that came with my phone. Considering you got a new sim, i would guess this affects nothing. I don't like paying $85/month for my phone, but where I live it is mountainous and VZW is the only carrier that has good reception. (everything, not just LTE)

I will say the difference could be within the software (ROMS) as far as tiered versus non-tiered. i did also read that the AWS (xlte) will not be accessible by grandfathered devices, but i do not know how much veracity to give that notion. Good luck man. Thank you for your contributions to the android community.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Traceguy:
I bought a phone pre rooted and everything. It was nice, but the problem is I am having trouble changing the recovery on the phone.

For a long time I had TWRP 2.6.3.4. I could not flash any recovery over it. I was finally able to flash TWRP 2.6.3.1 using the same method to get TWRP. At that point I'm still not able to flash a recovery over TWRP.

I just discovered "flashify" tonight where I had flashed the CWR image for the d800. Now I can't even boot into recovery. It acts like I have non. I can boot into android no-problem though.

When I use "flashify" or "Recovery Tools" they claim I still have TWRP 2.6.3.1.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Can someone please help me.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hid3rs:
I too tried flashing CWM over TWRP using Flashify, but it didn't work, it still said I had TWRP. However, Flashify did work to revert back to Stock Recovery.

I still have the backup file of the Stock Recovery, I can upload it somewhere if you want to, then maybe you can install CWM.

I have a D802 myself, not sure if my backup would work with your D800 though. but if you're adventurous... :)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Traceguy:
I was able to get back a version of TWRP following this: http://theunlockr.com/2013/11/03/flash-custom-recovery-lg-g2-versions-video/

Still don't know why I can't get other recoveries like CWR or why almost all versions of CM will fail to flash using TWRP

EDIT

I miss read you post. I thought you had a copy of TWRP. Go ahead and send the the stock recovery as that's one thing I have yet to try..
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hid3rs:
Well now I'm not sure if it's a good idea. Even for custom recoveries there are different files to download for D800 and D802. I don't think my backup would be compatible with your variant.

If you want CM, try flashing Official Nightlies. I've heard they are stable. I flashed CM11 Nightly with TWRP 2.6.3.4 just fine. You can grab it for D800 here.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Traceguy:
Mine never works. I think its a MD5 error or something. I can only get one version of CM running and I think it's 10.2, I assume my whole phone is just messed up. Not being able to flash CM or recoveries.

Screen Quality

Hi guys, I'm newbie over here.

My question is:

Is there a way to make fix the quality of the screen, playing with settings, apps, etc?

I mean, I know that the ppi on this device is low, but could be possible make it better?

I'm sorry about my English, isn't good at all.
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 General] naufalhadyan:
Not possible... ppi is tied to hardware, and unless you're skilled enough to tweak the GPU and change the LCD screen, it is not possible. Might as well buy a new phone.

The most we can do is gain more screen real estate by reducing the DPI. Even after reducing DPI everything is still very pixelated due to low ppi.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] awaj2006:
I'm sure there's multiple questions about how to fix their phone for this reason or that reason. I am on the verge of crawling up in a ball and rocking back and forth... (maybe it's a bit over dramatic) but I've tried to fix this based on my experiences in the past.

I have a galaxy s3 sgh-t999. I followed instructions to install CMW 5.0.5.4 and used odin, when I finished, I tried flashing a rom and got an error saying that the rom was for dr2tmo not for the device dr2spr. I thought that didn't sound right. I re-did the install of the cmw but used philz touch http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2310081

I then wiped everything, the factory reset, the cache, battery. I then installed Hellfire for my phone, and the google apps, and now I'm stuck at the boot animation for the rom. I looked into resetting it back to stock, but Odin can't because the count is higher then 1 and I can't find somewhere to reset the phone's count without getting into a rom, which I haven't found one that works.

I appreciate any advice you guys can give, and please let me know if i missed a rule or something and I'll change what I can. Thank you.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] awaj2006:
I have no clue on how to pull logs either. I'm sorry for not getting too involved before I got that far.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TronMinecraft:
My advice would be to get the Cyanogenmod for the d2tmo. If you are already at 4.3 use the 10.2 version. Otherwise probably use 10.1. Don't use the 10.2 unless you have to, it has some security stuff in it that makes rooting/modifying the phone a bit more restricted (IMO).

You can flash the zip for it in CWM or TWRP. http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=d2tmo

Once that is done you can use triangle away to reset your counter. Then use odin to get back to stock. Stock can be found at sammobile It'll be a long download, but worth it if you want stock. Again I do not reccomend going 4.3 unless you have already upgraded to it. If you have already upgraded to it you won't have a choice, but until someone finds a way to truly override KNOX and the bootloader security, I personally advise to stay away from it.

I hope this helps
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] awaj2006:
I did do the update for 4.3 while it was available before samsung pulled it. I'll start with 10.1 tomorrow morning and hopefully I can post with good news after it's done. I'll probably stick with what ever I end up with getting to work for a while, whether it's CM 10.1 or 10.2.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Alfred1516:
You should try with CF method
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] awaj2006:

I'll look more into the CF method.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] awaj2006:
I got CF for tmobile t999 and used odin, it CM came up rather quickly. I'm going through the initial set-up and then I'll try making a phone call. thank you for the help

Hyperspace works great on my SCH-I545 running MK2 with Safestrap. Not much else will work with Safestrap. If you find yourself soft bricked, use the stock image that you flash with Odin. You'll find yourself unrooted; but you can easily root again with the install.bat found in the forums.

Also, Hyperdrive comes with several useful tweaks that not only speed up your device, but also make it look very nice.

you'll need Xposed framework for GravityBox to work.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] freemsk1:
Is there a guide somewhere on how I could modify framework-res myself?

Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AndyYan:
1) Decompile using apktool or any tool you like (I prefer APKChanger)

2) Edit /res/values/dimens.xml, change the bold numbers in these lines to the DPI you want:

<dimen name="navigation_bar_height">[B]48[/B].0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="navigation_bar_height_landscape">[B]48[/B].0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="navigation_bar_width">[B]42[/B].0dip</dimen>

3) Recompile. Now you have the original file and the compiled one. Open both with WinRAR, drag the "resources.arsc" from the compiled one to the original one.

Done. The end result is the original framework-res.apk. Replace it in /system/framework/ (pay attention to permissions: rw-r--r--, 0755), reboot and all done.

Keep in mind that whenever you update your ROM, you have to modify the new ROM's framework-res again.

As for making it into a flashable ZIP... I use a pre-cooked template but you can do it with other tools.

I had good results and no conflicts on CM11with Xblast tools on the Xposed framework. It seems to have a lighter touch than gravity for.
