I've been fantasising about getting a Universal for sometime but I dont want to ditch my BA. As I don't see it as being that much of an upgrade to warrant paying & hassle of arguing with O2.

However, I'm on-call for my company and was wondering what the quality of VNC over 3G was like?

Has anyone tried this and is it practical?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] CPhoenix:
.: bump :.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Anton.Valleyman:
Not sure about over 3G but can imagine it's roughly comparable with normal VNC over broadband. Also depends what version of VNC you use on the exec as there are a couple.

Over wifi on the exec it's pretty good, though I've found that logmein.com is a far better solution - if such an option is open to you. Also found that dynamicdns.com is meant to be good, and allows you just to RDP onto installed terminals.

If none of these are applicable, then VNC on the Exec is just as good/poor as desktop equivalents.

Thank gawd Citrix released the latest WM 5.0 compatable version of GoToMyPc Pocket View so now I can remote into my desktop using my handset. GoToMyPC PocketView allows pda owners with a gotomypc subscription to access amd work on any registered machine remotely.

If security is an issue it uses an SSL-encrypted Web site and end-to-end AES 128-bit encryption of the data stream and chat as well as keyboard and mouse input; multiple passwords, including an access code that resides on the host computer and is never transmitted or stored on GoToMyPC servers; and notification when the PC is accessed.

Because the o2 XDA Exec has a 640 x 480 touchscreen and UMTS (3G) capacity it makes life a whole load easier using PocketView than on previous pdas. UMTS has a theoretical speed of 384 kbs so any refresh delay is hardly noticible especially combined with the fact that the software itself pixel refreshes.

Here's a couple of images of it in action!

They seem like the perfect combination for those who intensively work remotely who insist on not having to drag a laptop around with them.

[Acer Iconia A500] ERA53:
My Acer A500 did a system update and loaded ICS 4.0.3. from Honeycomb 3. Now the accelerometer isn't working. So I have no auto rotate and motion games can't be played. I have tried system reset, hard boot, standing on my head while whistling Dixie as I turn it on and nothing seems to work. Is there a software solution for this. Can I revert back to Honeycomb? I just don't know what to do as I'm not that computer smart

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Geordie Affy:
My tablet has only ever been off twice, once it went off by itself on 5% battery and the other I decided to switch it off (just for the sake of it lol) and charge the battery. Okay this has happened twice now, both times after a restart the touchscreen didn't want to work at all. The home and power button worked to put the screen on however the capacitive buttons nor the touchscreen wanted to work. So in the end I had to hold the power button for 8 seconds or whatever it is to do a restart - after a restart again everything was working fine.

I have had this tablet for about 3 weeks now and I have used it a lot and I know it doesn't have any issues at all apart from this one. Just confused if I am doing something wrong or if it's just a bug. I absolutely love this tablet so if I get issues every now and again on restart it's not a problem, plus not like I ever need to switch it off.

Has anyone else ever had any issue like this?

How long did u wait before reboot the tab?

I got this problem on Note 2 (rooted), every time an app/TW crash and capacitve buttons or touch wont works. Had to wait long time before app crash mess pop ups, after the app/TW restarts and then it works again.

Maybe u got some bad apps installed and cause this behaviour. Is mine best guess.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Geordie Affy:
I don't think it's an app as I have never had an app crash on my device, it's happened twice just on a reboot and the first reboot was the day I got it and the second was after 17 days.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ulao2:
I need to find a way to get my nexus 7 to charge with QI wireless station and allow the OTG cable to work. I'm aware of the custom mods out there but I really want my nexus OS fully functional and untouched minus this one aspect. Is this possible via a rooted app or light mod to the existing OS?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rebel1699:
You really have 2 options.

1. Remove the back cover of your N7, and follow the instructions somewhere here in the general section to add the Qi reciever.

2. Use a custom kernel to enable host mode charging, and purchase a "Y" cable from ebay or amazon.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ulao2:
As for 1, is this an upgrade to the current QI receiver in it? I have the 2013 model. My QI charge works great until I plug in the OTG cable and then the OS turns off charging.

[General Questions and Answers] iABi:
So recently I ended up with a soft brick trying to flash a custom rom. I was able to fix it with by flashing the RUU.zip. When trying to reroot my device and flash a custom rom, I ended up stuck in a boot loop. It gets to the HTC Screen and after that it goes black for about a minute before repeating. When I go into recovery and try to install a custom rom, it tells me it cannot mount data... Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

[LG G Flex] codemansGT:
I would like to know peoples opinions on the quality of the display. I myself am kind of put off by the "noise" or grainines of the display, also I have noticed some ghosting on the display. For example if the background is white and there are darker shapes after I scroll up or down I can still see some of that shape for a few seconds then it turns with like the background.
[LG G Flex] DANIEL TAN:
I'm so very disappointed on the display as well. It only looks good when you max out the brightness level (which is what I saw at the phone shop before I decided to buy one). If I'd known this earlier, I'd buy G2 instead.
[LG G Flex] sweets55:
I usually always max the brightness on every phone I buy. Well when in bed I turn all the way down. I'm not that picky but will have to wait and see it in person to decided if I want to sell my G2. I'm just not using my Nexus 7 and figure why not sell it and just a phablet. lol
[LG G Flex] avetny:
From 0 to 10 I'll give 7....only because background noise, which is fine because this is flexible display.
[LG G Flex] cheapshot789:
I have been reading alot of reviews and theres mixed reviews of screen quality some says its not that bad and some say its really terrible and alot of pix elation and stuff, little worried on my pre order just will have to wait and see. Either way i change phones every 3 months or so, got to feed my addiction...
[LG G Flex] pvaldeben:
lol, nice are you also a flash-aholic? as me! . But reading this thread and knowing that ppi is less that my last 2 phones note 2 and GS3. I'm really might go with samsung . I really wanted it for the biggeer display in smaller fram.

Thanks.

Cheers
[LG G Flex] cheapshot789:
Not really a flash aholic anymore since phones keep geeting better with software and as you can see from my tag line im giving up my Note 3 for this :( either way 3 months from now here we go again... ps I need an intervention!
[LG G Flex] Intub8:
I'm debating between the note 3 and the g flex. It has been a very tough decision......
[LG G Flex] barondebxl:
The display is better than expected in my opinion. The viewing angles are excellent and the colors are vivid. Whites are good from 50% and up otherwise it is grainy but honestly I think it's a great display. My favorite display to date is the HTC one with a 10/10, ill give the note 3 a 9/10, the G flex a 7.8/10.
[LG G Flex] vw65bus:
You and me both,

I just gave my wife my note 3 for the nexus 5 and now I'm going tomorrow for the flex "maybe". I've used it in a at&t store and liked it other than display. But I think over time the display won't bother me that much. I'm mainly going for size and battery.

My wife and dad fuss at me all the time for switching phones. But to be honest if the nexus 5 would've been larger and better battery life I would've been completely happy with it and probably wouldn't be changing for at least a year, well maybe 8 months lol
[LG G Flex] barondebxl:
If size and battery is what you like than the G flex is the absolute best thing on the market, hands freaking down.
[LG G Flex] cheapshot789:
I feel u man i get harrsed everytime i get a new phone lol. One thing about the flex that im loving is the insane battery i have been trying to kill the battery over 24hrs now with heavy to moderate use and im still at 8%.
[LG G Flex] vw65bus:
Thanks, I agree. I love the size and battery.

Can't wait till tomorrow evening to try it out more.

As far as battery life goes do you have it at full brightness. I noticed at the at&t store that at full brightness the display was pretty great. I can handle the 720p if I left it on full brightness.

Just curious as to how long the battery will last on full brightness. I use Google all access music about 6hrs a day thru Bluetooth, YouTube 30mins-1hr, Google+ 30mins, xda 15-30mins, and searching the web 1+hr a day. I guess I'm a heavy user if that helps. Thanks
[LG G Flex] cheapshot789:
U should have no problem with that useage. I have the phone half the time in full brightness and auto the other half for sane reason that u have to have it a full to get best display.
[LG G Flex] barondebxl:
There's a lot of worry about the display since its only 720 p but like u said, if u crank the brightness up the display is just fine. Below 50% the display is still fine except for whites, they become too grainy. But above it becomes white white. Battery life is something you NEVER EVER have to worry about with the G flex, it truly is the king right now no matter how bright you put the display. I was consistantly getting 8 hours of screen time with heavy use ( and when I say heavy I mean watching a ton of youtube videos, downloading some pirate bay movies, phone calls, lots of tapatalk, lots of words with friends....). Dont worry about battery life at all.
[LG G Flex] vw65bus:
Thanks a lot eases my worries :)
[LG G Flex] stillbrad:
The display is horrible. I have the note 3 wanted the gflex very badly went to tmoblie to try it out. Side by side comparison with the same wallpaper. Search g flex wallpaper on play store. The flex display has got to be the most terrible display on the market for a 2014 phone. Its grainy and very pixelated. In short I could not bring myself to get one. Noticeable downgrade just on display alone and the curve is not that curvy. They played it very safe with this phone. Doesn't even have 3gb of ram. Wish it was better.
[LG G Flex] barondebxl:
I do.
[LG G Flex] vw65bus:
Besides the display.

The note 3 is a great phone but even with 3 gigs of ram it still falls short on performance compared to the flex. I like my note 3 but purchased a nexus 5 cause i got tired of the note 3 being slow at everyday task like rotation of screen and clicking on apps, not to mention web browsing. Don't get me wrong it's fast but after tying a nexus 5 you'll see what I'm talking about. With that point made the flex is just as quick at the nexus.

My point here is unless the devices are right next to one another you won't notice any difference in display quality. "Minus the grainy look" but as far as pixelated you'll never notice.

Just like you'll never know the speed without them side by side Just like i did when i got home i compared the note 3 to the flex Just like i did with the nexus. The flex is very snappy at everything You throw at it. The only thing i haven't compared is the cameras but I'm sure the note 3 will win that competition.

Everyone is entitled to there opinion though and this is mine.

As far as liking the display yes i wish it was 1080p but for first gen and being curved i like it.
[LG G Flex] avetny:
I like it too. Display is oled that's why I very happy. It's better than on my xperia z ultra (TFT garbage). On G Flex screen provide beautiful color's. There is some background noise which is not noticeable as people say. This is our curve screen guys thats how is working.
[LG G Flex] cheapshot789:
Hey what do you guys think, past 48hrs of use and i domt know if i got use to the screen or because of the use the screen looks better...
[LG G Flex] engagewithrage:
I am getting the same feel, like the more I use it the less grainy the display looks on whites, I id turn up the brightness to about 70% and notice it less..my only issue is with the camera quality..most pics I have taken look very grainy and blurry..I'm considering swapping this thing out for the G2..gonna give it a few more days and see how I feel
[LG G Flex] imarq:
When I first got mine I turned the brightness up to 100%. Now I have it at about 60% and it still looks great. I think my eyes have adjusted to the 720p.
[LG G Flex] aaronrw:
Screen is awesome. Just awesome.
[LG G Flex] Xak:
After my 1st android phone the ATT HTC One XL I definitely like it a lot better, and that was 720 also but smaller. Im used to graininess due to my laptop having a matte finish screen which matte screens are like that to prevent glare. I think its fine it looks awesome. My other friend says he doesn't see what people are complaining about. Just don't bend display backwards i read on internet if you purposely bend it backwards for videos etc it will get bubbles but by backwards i mean literally folded in half backwards. Compared to my Nexus 7 2012 I still think the display is awesome. Even though it is hd I like the curve for watching netflix and playing games. :victory:
[LG G Flex] edifish:
Maybe less is more?

I've had my G Flex for a couple days now and I can't really see what all the fuss is about. From what I understand, it is comparable to a nokia lumia 1320 which has a 6 in display at 1280x720 = 245 ppi. Granted that's less ppi than a smaller display at higher resolution like the Note 3, but it doesn't mean the display is bad. Since when is 245 ppi bad? Maybe it's actually good. I'm not sure about this, but it would seem to me that it would take more computing power to drive a higher res display. I've read a few posts on this thread by people who complain their Note 3 is slower and it can't match the battery performance of the G Flex. If you ask me, it's a smart albeit perhaps unpopular decision to go with the 720p display because what it lacks in pixel density, it more than makes up for in fps and battery life. I don't notice the grainy effect and to my eyes it looks better than my friend's S4 when compared side to side, which by the way is almost 2x the ppi at 441. I think people should be less influenced by specs and more by actual user experience. But I guess in the tech world specs are hard to ignore. For me, I can't ignore how good this display is in terms of my user experience. My previous phone is a Note 2 and it seems so bulky and heavy now that I have the G Flex.

Can the screen be better? Yes. Does that mean it's bad? Not at all. Am I the only one who notices how much screen and how little bezel there is here? Can't think of another phone out there right now like that. I like this phone.
[LG G Flex] dantay999:
Let me start off by saying that I'm moving to the Flex from a Note3, I want through a lot of Note 3's and never managed to get a uniform screen, this and tbh the cheese ball design of Samsung phones in general led me to change.

My G Flex arrived today, and I really like it.

The screen has a grain to it, it's not super high resolution and images a retained for a few seconds when you change the static........it is however very consistent! There is NO black clipping......dark bands or other variables that the Samsung screens exhibit.

Very happy with my purchase. :good:
[LG G Flex] canecbr600:
I also noticed that after a few days the screen grain/noise diminishes greatly ..... Gr8 device! Little faster/smoother than my G2, but of course the flex has a crap ton less pixels to process!!! ;)
[LG G Flex] Freshly_Snipes:
Totally agree. Had mine for over a week. I have "Screen Shieldz High Definition" Screen protectors on it and I am in love. Got 2 cases from amazon and I have not been able to put this phone down. Especially with the 6 months free Netflix with it. My display, like everyone's, has the same issues but it's not a deal breaker.
[LG G Flex] Gipsonbaby:
Turn up the brightness

Issue may be due to low brightness, Increase the brightness, it will give a perfect clarity
[LG G Flex] darkforestmage:
I've had my G Flex for about ten days now and in everyday use I have no complaints on the screen. I quite enjoy it. I keep brightness at about 80-90 and between video, photos regular web browsing the screen is excellent. Digging the curve. Like an earlier poster I went through a couple of Note 3's trying to find one with a uniform display and while I enjoyed the Note for what it can do after a time now with the LG I wouldn't go back.
[LG G Flex] Gipsonbaby:
I am really impressed with its curved display, the curve really helps to handle the phone with single hand.
[LG G Flex] will0899:
I always get compliments on the screen, not to mention its a good conversation starter. Just look out for those note 3 people, in their heads there is no better phone than theirs.
[LG G Flex] Rykochet:
It turned on vivid instead of normal and I'm finding it to be less grainy.
[LG G Flex] sweets55:
Same here. I didn't notice it on my first Flex though. Nothing was wrong with it but made $150 by returning it with the T-Mobile BlackBerry promo. I found a old BB. lol
[LG G Flex] dmbfan13:
I dont think the display is bad, but it does bug me at times. Every now and then I see a pixel and it annoys me. Also I don't care for the graininess of the screen. I'll probably end up going to the Note 3. I love the look of the Flex, just don't care for the screen much.
