While quiet a few of the system apps do work on other devices, a full on port would be ideal.

I'm including the link to find all needed files. Use Google translate so you can download

the person that gets this Rom ported will become a hero and a legend since the last guy that did it lives in China, did it over a year ago and left no explanation on how it was done.

Hello,

Does anyone know if the popup that shows up whenever you receive a text message can be made larger?

There's an option in sounds and notifications to enable certain things whenever a SMS arrives:

1./ Play sound

2./ Display message on screen

3./ Flash light for... 15 minutes

4./ Vibrate"

Option 2 "display message on screen" is very nice but unfortuantely, the amount of text that it displsays within the popup balloon/bubble is very limited. For example, if you receive a text that is perhaps over 100 chars, the end will be chopped off.

There is then no way to click the popup to display the rest of the SMS. You must cancel the popup and then go into your messages manually in order to see what the rest of the message said.

Perhaps there's a registry setting controlling the amount of text that is allowed in the bubble?

Any other tweaks for it?

Thanks,

Hello, does anyone know how to turn off the content adaptive brightness on our Optimus G?

Samsung have an option built in their UI. When I had a nexus, there was a file in /class /backlight... (something like that) that I edited to disable it. I've searched, but I couldn't find anything for this device.
[LG Optimus G (International)] JaymzBond:
is there a feature like that on our phone?
[LG Optimus G (International)] Pantoudis:
If you mean the screen brightness you can untick the autobrightness mode
[LG Optimus G (International)] e34v8:
No, it has nothing to do with auto brightness. It is a built in feature of Android which aims to save energy, but sometimes ruins the picture quality. You can search in Google what CAB is, for detailed explanation.

When I had a Nexus I use to change the acl_set file in /sys/class/backlight/s6e8aa0 , but it is not the same with this device. So I hope someone knows how to disable it on the Optimus G.

Hello Everyone,

Hopefully this issue can be solved, as I'm using stock Android JB 4.1.2 (E97510h-EUR-XX) on my device and there is no LTE option in:

- System Settings> More...> Mobile Networks> Network Mode

Now, I believe it can be enabled by making a change to persist.radio.lteon as found here:

- https://community.vodafone.ie/t5/Network/Supported-4G-Phones/td-p/137830/page/1

However, it requires root access and as far as I'm aware, there is no root exploit for E97510h-EUR-XX at this time:

- http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2249033&page=2

- http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2163814&page=5

Here are my questions:

1. Is there any method to replace or edit persist.radio.lteon

without

rooting my device?

2. If 1 is

not

an option, is there any method to successfully root my device?

3. If 2 is possible, can I unroot and will this process be undetectable?

Any help is much appreciated :good:

I put E975 soft and no lte option so i put back korean and lte works

I explained to u simple

Hope it helped..
[LG Optimus G (International)] jordy1990:
He hasn't bought a Korean Optimus G, but an E975. But for some reason if you put a SIM card from one carrier in the phone you cannot choose LTE, but if you put in a SIM from a different carrier you get the option to choose LTE. That's because LG has had the brilliant idea to block LTE for some carriers on an LTE enabled phone.

You can try contacting LG so they release an update so that LTE will be enabled for your carrier, but it would be faster to root your phone and adjust the build.prop like you said in the first post.
[LG Optimus G (International)] GalaxySIIII:
doesnt matter where mobile is form .. dont u see i bought from korea and europe soft was working but no lte so why he cant put korean onto european ?!?!?! it will still work + with lte enabled ..

contact lg god .. it is not down to them how do u want contact them and yeah they will tell you omg we are sooo sooryy we will correct it for you .. fkin pathetic .. they will crap on u .. man

lg doesn't block nobody .. the carrier needs send u setting .. dont u remember when 3g came up they been sending settings over SMS ? APN settings and MMS settings ? nowdays it is up to carrier send update over network NOT via sms .. and those carriers who has settings ready then 4g doesnt work ..

[LG Optimus G (International)] jordy1990:
Why bother putting Korean software on your European phone and risk having a bad experience (due to the fact that Korean software is guess what optimized for Korean carriers)? When you can just root your device and change the build .prop which is less trouble and less risky to perform than to put a Korean software on it.

But to answer the question of the TS. You can root the E975 10 H firmware. I used Framaroot, and it works fine. You can read all about in the thread FAQ (Freaking Annoying Questions) in the Q and A section.
[LG Optimus G (International)] GalaxySIIII:
risky ? how can be risky .. so people here happily flashing third party roms and that's alright and when try to use original official rom then is risky ????! man are you OK?

optimized for their carriers ? no .. only APPS are included .. and those apps can be easily ignored ..

i think that your buildprop editing is risky .. ordinary people wont be messing with customizing files

wait for carrier till end of march then

I dont need to read nothing for me all working am enjoying LTE(4G) u dont it is your problem what u do ..

do what u want ..
[LG Optimus G (International)] jordy1990:
Chill out dude. I'm only trying to help the TS out. He didn't ask anything about flashing a ROM, only to solve his problem with or without root.

Flashing any custom ROM is more risky than rooting a device. As it involves more steps then just rooting. So why make it hard for yourself?

Flashing a Korean ROM would mean flashing a KDZ file (that's the way I changed the E975 10 H back to E975 10 D) and that process probably changes the baseband of your phone(which is not the right one for the E975), so it could definitely influence the experience and battery life, etc.

You say that ordinary people won't mess with the build.prop file but they won't have any problem with flashing a Korean ROM?

BTW: There is no need in quoting the very last post everytime you make a comment, as it is clear what you're replying on.
[LG Optimus G (International)] GalaxySIIII:
That quote button has reason to be there .. that is why am using it ... And people know which answer belongs to particular person ..

for me is easy flash kdz ... and then obviously u need to flash modem back .. that is not hard too ..

And u are right in only one thing .. yes when people changing roms flashing then phone drains battery .. yes when I converted to E975 my F180S battery was very very bad .. I flashed original korean back and battery is much much better .

Like I said you can try korean if no leave it and wait for carrier to sort it out .. but they have time tho ;)
[LG Optimus G (International)] hasan4791:
No one here recommends to flash korean kdz in international versions nd vice versa too... Try some othr rooting methods nd try to change the build.prop.... Have yu tried moto chopper root method...??

Edit: looks lyk moto chopper method doesn't help yu... Yu cant yu downgrade ur software nd root it....

Hello man.

I have upgraded my phone, with the LG tool, from V10D to V10H. Before that LTE was there to choose, after the update, well LTE option decides to take a walk...

I have resolved my problem, flashing the phone to V10I (http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=20) from France, and used this guide to flash (http://www.cellrabta.pk/2013/10/how-to-flash-big-kdz-files-optimus-g-gk-g-pro-g2-and-others/)

But, I saw here (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=46400436&postcount=5), that something can be made on build.prop, but, on my "fixed ROM", I don't have that line... And I didn't test that.

Best luck.

Edit:

I rooted my phone using framaroot (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=37508806)

Works like a charm! =D

[LG Optimus G (International)] TheStigOnline:
If you're on 10I, backup your data and try a factory reset, that may solve your issue

As this no LTE option appears to be a possible bug / temp issue

That is unfortunate and maybe one of the above options will resolve the issue for you, as there is a non-root and root option, I'm planning to try a hard reset, if no joy then the non-root option and finally the root option

Tried hidden menu?

Hi,

when you can you should try this - it might work for you:

In dialer enter:

*#*#4636#*#*

Call.

That should give you a secret menu. Select Phone information, go to (almost) buttom and set preferred network.

If no menu comes on you phone try download "Secret Codes" app from Play. There are more codes that may be relevant for you model.

Why: Phone may be capable, but GUI does not get the setting through to you

How I found out:

I had no initial problems with LTE on stock. Flashing 4.4.2 roms ****ed that up a bit. Option was there but not steady and other problems.

I am now on MIUI which is JB (but fast/stable/funny) and that rom misses the option for LTE as you discribe. First time on ROM it connected fine, but at a time I was in an area with no coverage, and by mistake I changed the option to 3G from settings.....

I used the secret code, and connection is stable. Only had issue once, but now know to change
[LG Optimus G (International)] jancis201991:

Try other codes

Try getting the "Secret codes" app form playstore. There are other codes there that does not work on my device - one of them may work on yours.

And google other combinations....

[Security Discussion] mrproper123:
Don't worry, it's a security question alright.

I live in Eastern Europe, which is on the far side of the Samsung support network and I have samsung galaxy s3 phone (GT-9300 i guess). My repair options look a little bit bleak. I must either ship it back to France, from where it is bought, or I must seek help of non-licensed technicians. Thank God, there are quite a lot around here and for problems like this they do wonders.

I am worried though that the technicians may try to meddle with the software of my phone and do something nasty with it while the phone is in their possession. I use the phone quite a lot to access various servers trough ssh and the servers contain semi-sensitive information about customers, phones, the equivalents of social security numbers in my country and etc. Of course I will delete my present information, but how about the future. If someone has hacked versions of the firmware, it will be a child game to get the passwords for my servers.

So I need to secure the software of my phone somehow and I'm not sure of my options, so I'm asking for advice which is better. I have experience with Linux, but about Android I'm a quite noob. I had my Amazon FireHD Tablet rooted and installed with CyanogenMOD, so I know a little bit about ROM images. The phone itself is unrooted with original software and is not locked to a carrier.

Should I:

1. Try to back up my entire ROM image?

There are various questions here. It looks that I cannot download standalone original ROM image directly from Samsung so I must back up mine. But in the bootloader (which opens with volume up/down + home + power) it seems that there are no options for backing up rom image, only for restoring trough ADB of SD card. Should I try to root, install alternative bootloader and then back up everything.

There is one very important sub-question here: Will the phone signal me somehow If someone replaces the original bootloader with say, non-signed one? What If someone changes the bootloader as well as the system image?

2. Should I try to ecrypt my phone.

I cannot get easily information about what exactly is encrypted. Pretty sure that the bootloader itself cannot be encrypted anyway. How about the system image. Is it encrypted ?

I'll be thanful for any help about these two ideas as well as any others?
[Security Discussion] fadedout:
If you are paying to have the repair done by an entity other than Samsung then you have a great option available. Just out of curiousity, what version of android are you running? If I were in your shoes, I would root the phone and install a custom recovery (either TWRP or Philz). This will allow you to take a complete nandroid backup of the phone to the external SD Card. Confirm the nandroid backup has been saved to the SD Card then remove the card from the phone and store it somewhere safe. Then perform a factory reset to completely wipe the phone and have your phone sent out to be fixed. When you get your phone back, insert the SD Card and restore from the backup. It will be just as you left it and the possibility that anyone has been able to access or tamper with your phone is almost nil... Apart from possibly large national security agencies whom are known for having catalogs of common electronic items that have been compromised in various ways.

I can't speak for your exact phone, but I am quite familiar with encryption as well as the US-model Galaxy S3's. Unfortunately Samsung is known for running their own encryption schemes with are different and most often weaker than the stock. Custom ROMs with generally have an implementation based on AOSP sources. A 4 digit PIN or common passphrase can be easily broken with either, but a sturdy encryption passphrase will almost certainly provide sufficient protection.

Without knowing the specifics of your phone and whatever TouchWiz it's running, I can say this much. If you enable encryption on your phone, it will encrypt /data (application data) at a very minimum. This will almost definitely not include /system. It will probably not include the external SD card or any of the actual applications (the .apk files). The encryption would keep your data secure at rest, but it wouldn't prevent a motivated attacker from installing a hidden malicious application in the system.

You are correct in that the bootloader cannot be encrypted.

I had to do this once and what I did was:

- Root phone (which I always wanted to do)

- Perform a full backup to SD card

- Remove SD card and perform a factory reset of the phone

Then off to repairs.

Once back, I did again a factory reset (just in case) and then restore the lot

Seems a lot to do, but I have some sensitive data on it and didn't want to risk it too much. Besides during the restore I took the opportunity to upgrade to 4.3 (at the time) :)
