[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sas46:
Hi

I'm thinking to install the MIUI porting into my Nexus 4 (it's not official but I think it's well supported), I want to ask if it helps my battery duration because I've a friend with a Xiaomi mi2s and he can use it around 1 day without charging it, in my case I can use my phone around 5-6 hours...

Tell me your opinions if you used it

Apologize me if I've made some grammar mistakes

Thanks

I want to only root my phone whilst not losing any data

Is it possible to root without unlocking the boot loader. Also if no. Then suggest a way to completely back up my phone. What data gets lost? Pictures and music as well?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
No.

Use helium to backup apps and settings

Copy everything on internal memory to computer

I updated my mf3 galaxy s4 to mk2 sucessufully. I then used safestrap to install a rom. But I didnt make a back up.

The new rom failed to load. So I decided to follow the steps in this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2573080&page=1

to odin flash mk2 back.

But when I got to the point of adb side loading the update file.....it failed.

So what are my options?? I cant go back to mf3 and the mk2 update keeps failing in recovery.

Swyped from MK2 Dark Carnage SS Edition
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] meshflesh:
Found out how to make it worked. these are the steps i followed:

1.Flash emergency 1 via odin.

2. Restart phone into download mode and flash emergency 2 via odin

3. Restart phone to download mode. flash mk2 stock recovery

4. restart phone into recovery mode and choose "apply update via adb. then Sideload the "update-mj9-mk2" from your pc. It will fail

5. Then you sideload: the bigger update file called"update.zip". And thats it. You will be on mk2 4.3 after its done.

It only worked when i followed those steps exactly in that order. Idk why. lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] ted77usa:
Awesome..... :thumbup: Glad that all worked out for u....

Swyped from MK2 Dark Carnage SS Edition
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] muniz_ri:
The "update-mj9-mk2" file failed to sideload because the emergency files contain the MF3 system, modem, and cache images. That is why you need the larger MF3toMK2 update file in order for the process to successfully get you to MK2.

Buttons..

If you do not know how to hide buttons on screen..Here's instructions ..

-Using Root Explorer :

1.Go to /System and Mount R / W.

2.Hold build.prop then choose Open in Text Editor.

3.Scroll to the end and on a new line input: qemu.hw.mainkeys = 0

Save and Exit. Then Reboot.

I hope it will work.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riginal:
Hi all, sorry for posting this here but I really need some input from the honest folks of XDA whom I trust most

I have Xperia X10 & I want to buy a new phone, my three options are Note 3, Xperia Z1 & LG G2

now I really wanted to go for Note 3 because of s pen & big size but the problem is that Snapdragon 800 version is not released with warranty for where I live & I have doubts buying a Samsung device without warranty

I played a bit with Xperia Z1 & noticed the overheating issue around the lens & worse yet it shuts down the camera & doesn't let you use it unless the device is cooled down

I played with LG G2 & found no issues at all, really loved the device & its innovations, the price is also lower than those two here, the only thing is I heard a few things about LG phones in general that makes me worried, a few people say that lg phones' batteries get worse after some months & you'll get half the battery life you got during first days, Also they say that because of G2's many software features the phone will lag after some months (which sounds kinda stupid really) but since my budget is really really limited & I will stuck with whatever I choose for two or three years I need some honest input from the people who own this device for some months now

Thanks a lot, Really appreciate it
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rayan:
Here's my somewhat biased answer:

1. I avoid Sony products like the plague. Not very good experience in the past.

2. I don't like the Xperia line, their designs are not that good to me (way too square-ish).

3. I've been a Samsung user for the last three devices Samsung S2, Samsung S3 Mini and Samsung Note 1, all of them great devices except two things: Build quality (chromes come off easily) but above all, AMOLED screens tend to burn-in over time. So I decided to avoid AMOLED screens from now on.

4. I decided to try LG G2 due to it been the first Snapdragon 800 CPU and it's gorgeous IPS screen but most of all, its INCREDIBLE BATTERY LIFE! which is something every other brand lacks (maybe except the Motorola Droid MAXX). Other great aspects: super thin, almost no bezel which allows the screen to be almost phablet size!

I would suggest you to try LG G2, it will not disappoint you! :good:

Just make sure you get the 32 GB version!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Germanese:
I Personally like the Z1 and the G2

The Z1 overheating issues is only present if you take video like a mad person or play games as if its a PSP from my understanding.

Remember these are still phones. And if you plan to play games on it for 6-8 hours straight and get it overheating, you are in need of a Handheld or tablet. It should not overhead on normal usage.

G2 I have so far has great battery life. What u should do to Li-Ion every now and then though is run it completely dead and recharge it so the system can calibrate the battery again. a lot of times that's the issue. That's the same thing people say with Motorolas also but I been fine with miens for 1 1/2 years

I went with the G2 due to price. Instead of the Note I had the HTC one as my third option.

The new phones are all soo powerful it mainly comes down what u want to use it for and what fits ur pocket and style.

I like the size, Screen, Powerplant, Battery of the G2 and the Price at under $300 used in mint condition was a steal to me.

Else I went for the HTC one at little over 325,.... The Sony was nice but the price was not right for me. Nor did it feel comfi in my hand.

But again those are my personal reason on why I picked the G2
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G1_enthusiast:
1. Sony make POS phone, I despise their products, even their GOOGLE TV sucks, funny thing is I'm getting ready to buy their noise cancelling headphone. They dont listen to customer, the same problem that happen in the XZ is happen on the XZ1S viewing angle. also the battery is surprisingly not good at all.

2. Note 3 is good but too big for my hand. my rules of thumb is, if I cant wrap my thumb and middle finger around the phone, then it is too big for me

3. LG G2 is an awesome phone, if I switch to any other phone it would be because I'm bored of Android, not because of the phone. battery last me all day with everything turn on (no battery saving app BS)

I traded the XZ for HTC one, the HTC one came close to beating it, but the over heating and battery got me to switch to the LG G2. If you do want the Note 3, take a look at the HTC one max, I think they fix it to where it doesnt overheat.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fox_Soul:
I had a Xperia Z1 and man, its a joke... Full of issues, touchscreen, battery, lag in homescreen, random reboots... I replaced it 5 times and all have the same issues.

Now i have an Lg G2 and, oh my really f**** god... Its wonderful! its the best phone i have had so far. The IPS screen provide a really good quality, it impress me the first time i saw it.

Buy an LG and you will like it as heaven.

Buy a Sony and play Russian roulette.

Buy a Samsung and you will have a good phone ( i dont have it so i dont say anything about it )
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riginal:
Thanks all for your input, That makes me want this phone even more over the other two

so those of you who have this phone for some months now haven't face any lag or battery life degradation on stock rom??because I know I'm gonna just use the stock rom (because based on my experience with X10 & flashing countless custom roms nothing beats stock in stability)

Also 32 gb is enough for you? I don't have proper access to cloud, for me it'll be some music files, maybe two or three movies, one hd game maybe & also I need 2-3 gb for maps to use it for offline gps, with these can I install many apps without any issues?

Thanks again for your useful comments

Also about HTC one max its price is really over my budget, also its camera is just not that good in daylight
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riginal:
any comment on the storage?

I'm off to buy my new phone next week
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Life Engineer:
Yes 32gb is enough for your usage! But of course as anything else, you should not abuse it!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vPro97:
You will have 24 GB storage after system apps. There is some occasional stutter when scrolling but that's the only lag I've experienced.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rayan:
I thought of that initially too... But it was not a dealbreaker at all!

I use several storage options:

1. Cloud Storage (Dropbox, Google Drive, etc)

2. Personal wireless NAS Storage when at home.

3. USB Host through OTG cable and usb memory.

Besides, unless you purchase a high speed micro sd, external storage through microsd is basically useless due to their low performance compared with the internal storage. Even some Class 10 microsd are not as fast as internal storage.

Anyway, just be sure to get those video recordings out of your device soon, because they are HUGE! lol...

Cheers!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vPro97:
I have that Russian cloud storage which gave me 1TB of free storage due to a now finished promo. Box.com gives you 50 GB free storage when you sign in using a LG phone but cloud storage isn't that fast really.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ang1dust:
I agree, stock it great....i just installed a debloated version and the up side to the root Rom is charging isn't limited on cheap chargers, bloatware removal and a small boost of battery life.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ironfoxmind:
I would highly recommend the LG G2, i swap phones alot and my all time favorite was the HTC One due to its build quality and boom sound speakers but since i started using the G2 Im so in love with it. Great battery life and the a huge screen that is prefect for one hand use due to the lack of screen bezel.

The only main issue i had with the G2 was the UI, although it preforms well but the colors used are so stupid and might make the phone look cheap, so i replaced all the main ugly looking apps with others from the Play store ( No root required) im talking about the Dialer, Messaging & keyboard.

Hope that helps making up ur mind.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rich168:

I am also looking for my next phone.

At first considered Note 3, but after a bit of reading around, its buggy firmwares scared me off plus i am not interested in S pen features.

Then thought of One Max, but no OIS like One, and snapdragon 600 not very futureproof either. Great screen and audio though. But having this big of a phone and still compromise on specs was a no go. :)

Now i am down to LG G2. I guess this might be it. I could care less about having latest android version as for me it is already mature enough. Phone stability and battery life are what i am looking for with decent horsepower.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayc1980:
I am pretty much a samsung fanboy! Not to the extreme but I have been in love with the galaxy series.

I was using the galaxy S3 when a offer for the LG G2 came up, which i could not refuse, so i 'gave it a go' and in my complete honesty i have never looked back and had no regrets.

The phone is amazing and can guarentee it will compete with most if not all the upcoming phones this year!! The speed is just out of this world and the first thing people comment on when trying my phone. Battery.....well what can I say, WOW!!!! Button placement is actually very nice, but due to LGs actual useful features I dont touch the buttons for days on end!

Storage.......yes this can be a problem, and its the one thing people turn round to me and say its the thing tgat stops them getting the phone. But i have learnt to live with it with no problems. My gallery is now linked to my dropbox so save space there, and i just delete gilms and series once i have watched them. To me i have no issues with storage.

Overall i can not reccomend this phone enough! I did not mention so much like screen and bezel and overall size if phone as they are just obviously perfect.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baileyjr:
Guys I hope you don't mind me tagging onto this thread.

I killed my Xperia Z Ultra yesterday, I reversed over it, its complete roadkill now... :crying:

Anyway that aside I am seriously considering the G2 now it can be gotten for such a reasonable price and the hardware/battery etc. is so much better than the Nexus 5.

Im completely sold on the hardware but I do like stock android though so will probably go with an AOSP Rom at some point.

Can someone tell me if I can still root and put custom recovery on the latest LG firmware... I just won't be happy if I'm stuck with the stock LG firmware forever.

Really appreciate if someone could answer that for me conclusively as I have my finger on the trigger of buying one. :good:
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bachera:
you probably can, otherwise you grab an old kdz somewhere downgrade(via return to stock method, posted here somewhere), root and upgrade

How was the Z Ultra? the camera is not good right? also no flash...sigh

Do you recommend Z Ultra or LG G2?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baileyjr:
I really enjoyed using it... The camera was typical tablet quality, very poor and I found myself not bothering to take photos of moments I would have like to have captured,

The size I got used to but it was what ultimately lead to its demise, It must have fell out of my pocket getting into the car and I reversed over it. Its roadkill now :crying: Will get a replacement on the insurance and sell it on.

The things I had the huge screen for, ie watching movies and gaming I found I never had time to do anyway... I don't regret getting the Ultra but its time for something with similar performance but a lot more practical and I think for me thats the G2,
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mofoliar:
same dilemma, would actually like the note 3 over the G2, but too much out right $$.. So pulled the hammer on a G2... Got a G2 for $390 on ebay all good and Clean ESn... Read lots of Rooting and good overall with G2, cant wait to get it and customize it...
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riginal:
so did you get your G2? how is it comparing to z u ?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baileyjr:
Yes I've got it mate. I love it... Still very pocketable and any concerns I had about going to a smaller screen were unfounded. The screen is very crisp and clear. Battery is amazing, camera is top notch and if anything it feels more responsive than my ultra.

That reminds me I still need to put in an insurance claim for the Ultra. Still on stock Rom on the G2 with root and Xposed. No desire to jump to AOSP Rom just yet.

I am facing weird issue while installing GOOD for enterprise on newly bought TAB 3 10.1 inch (Wi-Fi only model). Post installation, while submitting the PIN, it gives an error message “Your Phone network is off, Turn on your phone network then click OK.”

This model is Wi-Fi only model, so there is no question of switching Phone services ON or OFF. I have also checked that device is connected to internet and it is having appropriate internet access, besides this I have also checked whether GOOD for enterprise works on Wi-Fi only model, it does – infact I have it working on my 7 inch tab which is also Wi-Fi only tab.

I have done a factory reset / wipe etc… but no resolution of this issue. Tab 3 10.1 Inch has Intel version of GOOD for Enterprise, I have installed the same.
