Stating the obvious but you have rebooted the device right. Also there is a possibility that there is a conflict between two modules. If nothing helps try disabling one module at a time. Hope you resolve your issue.

So I've asked this in the past but people seemed to assume I was running cyanogenmod... I'm on stock verizon ota rom but rooted.

Gps lock is painfully slow sometimes I'll even reach my destination before it locks... I tried editing gps.conf to add the north america.pool.ntp servers but it only mitigated the issue a tiny bit, anyone know of anything I can do to fix this?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reinaldistic:
Anyone?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ffejy462:
Try faster gps app.... It'll back up gps.conf file before it edit in case it's not better.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ffejy462:
Kit kat probably. Should be here before 2015.... :) my gps is pretty Ok. About 10 sec on lock with only the occasional drop on stock 11a. The funny thing is that my wife has the same phone and she gets an instant lock and no drops... Maybe hardware is suspect. Our maybe boobs are a gps antenna...
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natureburger:
GPS was working fine until 2 or 3 days ago! Then takes forever, sometimes 20 - 30 minutes to lock.

Strange ....

Maybe that's it, I'm updated to 12b
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natureburger:
GPS finally fixed!

I used the app "GPS Status" and it took 1/2 hour to get a lock outside. Since then it locks fine outside and usually within 30 seconds indoors.

Sounds to me like any sort of ROM changes with Cache clearing must also clear vital satelite tracking info. Just a hunch ...
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natureburger:
I take that back. The GPS is just as buggy as before. I will have to get into some better outoors open spaces and re-test.

The GPS performance seems to revert to buggy lock-on as soon as the device is rebooted or some time passes.

Sucks.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natureburger:
Ahhhh. But wait. I went into an open space in the park and it locked in 39 seconds. There-after, it locked in 2 or 3 seconds onto between 10 to 15 satelites.

Soooooo...... The GPS works, in more exposed open spaces. Works in car as well. But does not work on patio with only 1/3 of sky visible.

Don't rely on this GPS chip to get you out of a rainforest or dark canyons!!

I too have the same issue on the stock rom . I found switching over to a kitkat rom helps as it locks on within seconds. I've tried madhi rom and Houstonn PA roms. Unfortnately, I am enjoying the Stock rom LG G2 features at the moment, particularly the knock on, LG Quick Remote and LG Quick window features of stock.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drahy:
Hello,

I have merged my contacts and numbers with facebook and hexsync app to have best quality photos and contacts in best shape. After backing up the contacts and flashing new rom i lost all the connected contacts and have again three different contacts facebook photo and email, phone contact and hexsync contact of the same person three times again

Is there any way how to really backup merged contacts like this?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f-r:
You can use gmail to merge android contacts. Yes, gmail. No mistake here :) See this guide - http://smallbusiness.chron.com/delete-duplicates-gmail-contacts-52402.html
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drahy:
What I was asking was not duplicate contacts but how to back-up contacts which I have merged in my mobile phone. One contact is for example connected now with google+, hexsync, facebook and with google contact.... So how to backup these connections so I can have it there after factory reset?

Again example one of my contact share information/is merged with these services:

facebook (photo and real name, email address etc)

hexsync (hd photo)

google+ (work number and some other info)

google email account (actual phone number and nickname)

So one contact is connected into one multiple services information hub in my contact list on my phone so how can I backup this?

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Journyman16:
Thought I'd move the questions to the top for ease of reading...

1. What I would like to know is how KK performance stacks up against 4.3?

2. How many KK users have benchmarked their phone before and after?

3. Does a KK phone get close to the Samsung Note 3 standard rating in Antutu?

4. How is battery life?

I've been very pleased with my Note 3 n9005. Even on stock the battery was good and performance was quick. I stuck with it for some time while I read up about Knox and other issues to do with rooting. I wanted to have the phone for a while to make sure I was well into the bathtub curve before I blew my warranty.

Mind you it might still be good anyway with Kogan as it's a grey import and Kogan have always been good with warranty in my experience.

Using RDLV I rooted my phone and did things like install TBup, Greenify and other root-based apps I like..I tried a variety of ROms - I had a Hong Ko0ng 32GB version so had to learn to fix PIT issues so I could flash 'normal' ROM's and not just ZGY ones - at each step I spent a while on that set up to make sure nothing was going wrong, but somewhere in my playing around I managed to trigger Knox - not sure how as it happened when I was simply repeating a build I had done before. C'est la vie! Now I could look at custom recoveries and ROM's.

I flashed Philz, made a nandroid and downloaded Omega v6.

I had used Omega on my S3 and was impressed so I got Omega v6 (4.3-based) as I wasn't ready to jump irrevocably into KK. There were too many issues being reported or questioned so I figured I'd wait a bit.

On stock I had run the Antutu benchmark and gotten above 35000 so I was a bit disappointed when with Omega the figure dropped to about 27000. It wasn't obvious in most things but playing video or games was a bit slower. I tried Faux kernel to see if it would help and got 22500 on Antutu.

I DL'd Alliance ROM, mainly because the Dev is still updating it where Omega 4.3 development has ceased. Very pleased with it and flashing Lean kernel took me back up to 35,400 on Antutu.

So, I am about ready to make the jump to KK - many of the initial issues are sorted out (so far - Samsung could always mess things up) and there are a lot of options for ROMs and jernels coming out.

I'll be doing some browsing on that but thought I might as well ask here. With Lean kernel and Alliance ROM and light use I am getting around 15 hours per 10% - a busier day gives me about 10 - 11 hours per 10%.

And that's with Wifi on all the time, BT on most of the time, GPS probably 50% - I think Greenify helps a lot as does debloat the Samsung stuff, but it is still damn good.

I'd like to NOT lose that kind of performance.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Journyman16:
Bump - still interested in KK experiences versus JB ROMs.

From my reading I am still thinking to stay with 4.3 - still a lot of questions around about KK.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rosli59564:
Personally i don't see a better benchmark with KK,about the same with JB. Battery life however very much better than JB. On any custom rom I can only get about 4hrs screen time while with KK about 7hrs. That's a huge difference
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Journyman16:
That's a big difference alright. I don't use a lot of screen time as mostly a light user, but I am getting between 3 and 5 days before charging is needed. But last reading was 22+hours for 85% with 1.5 hours screen on time.

I'm curious as to performance because of the articles about Samsung modding JB to work better just for benchmarks - apparently after being called on it they removed the mods for KK.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pete4k:
As far as I know they ramp up frequency to maximum when the start of benchmark was detected. You can do same thing by yourself, if rooted: For example in ROM toolbox move minimum frequency slider to max, or switch governor to performance, just make sure you switch it back afterwords.

Samsung is stupid, instead of removing the mod, they should have made it user adjustable: User could type name of program, so when that program starts cpu goes to full frequency or switches to faster governor settings, could be helpful (as it was with benchmarks) with most demanding games, making them run little faster. After the game finished phone would go back to it's normal power saving mode, win win for everybody.

At least they showed how inefficient on demand governor is and I for one will be looking into using different, better governor, to speed things up, since it seems for now the hardware is capable of better performance, but is artificially slowed down by poor governor programing.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Journyman16:
I used Governor tweak 'packs' on my S3 - there were performance tweaks, battery tweaks and more battery tweaks - after a ROM flash I'd run the 2 battery ones then the speed ones - my theory was the battery ones would reset everything to minimum then the speed one would reset only the ones needed for performance. Seemed to work, side by side with an S4 my phone was as fast (and faster in some things) and I got 2 to 3 days battery. (versus the S4 lucky to make a day :D)

Tweaks are the next thing to look at I guess...
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reefee:
I just tested it with 4.4 (X-Note 12 Rom by Solo and Xentrix , and Snapkat 2.2 kernel by Civato) and got 41K+ @2.88GHz CPU and 533MHz GPU both on performance governor. I don't have any 4.3 reference material unfortunately.

But I must say 4.4 feels much smoother than 4.3 and also better battery life.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pete4k:
I read somewhere KK uses interactive governor, is that true? Could that be one of the reasons phone seems more responsive?

[Microsoft Surface] drearyworlds:
So I've noticed that on my Surface RT, the volume response curve is steep from 0 to about 30 and then quite flat from 30 to 100 (it barely changes at all). I also have the same issue as others with the overall volume being too low (have tried the various fixes with negligible results), but it seems like most of the volume slider is a waste. Anyone else notice this? I've been poking around for a registry hack similar to the luminosity fix, but no luck so far. Will update if I find anything.

Edit: It occurs to me that if I could run ProcMon I could monitor what's being read from the registry. Anyone with a Pro interested in trying that out?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M@zik:
I am just wondering, with what options/solutions would we be left, once the Non-removable battery of our beloved Moto G worns out in 1-2 year??
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tatazeuz:
Send it to Motorola to get a replacement.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mokkami:
....and i guess that will be expensive. Another solution might be the day when you can get spare batteries for the MotoG.

If you have some technical talent it might be possible to solder the old out and the new in.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M@zik:
hmm, but i'm curious, what exactly one is supposed to do, once his/her mobiles Non-Removable battery starts giving signs/symptoms of dying out ??

I mean, I am afraid, if it leaves us with no other option but to change our phone :(

Dumping phone just only for the mere reason of battery getting worn out seems very pathetic and depressing to me.

Hope we have some better option.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mokkami:
For me it is sure. If the battery dries out one day, and if the motorola price is not good, i'll try it to do myself.

And i'm pretty sure, that motorola or any other non-motorola vendor will provide spare batteries. Why should they not?

If your screen is broken you'll also get a new screen. Maybe in 5 years there will be a lack of batteries for this model.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dizzyrul3z:
The battery is non-removable but by unscrewing a few screws goes take it out. The question whether it is somewhere to buy the same?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Medvosteri:
Some people have claimed that the battery IS removable, but you have to largely disassemble the phone, but this means it could be replaceable.

Personally though, the Moto G is a cheap phone and if the battery stops function, I'll probably just trow the phone away and buy a new phone.

Once again, personally, I change phones pretty regularly, as soon as I get bored with one or I find a new one I'm all hyped about, I will replace the phone.

Unless the battery fails during the warranty period, then I may consider replacing the battery.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mokkami:
Sure it is replaceable. Also the screen is replaceable and the motherboard also.

But officially it is not replaceable. And not every one is a techology nerd.

The battery is glued onto the motherboard components. And it is not soldered as i stated above.

And it is removeable with some careful efforts.

Here some teardown pics on a german website.

Nothing against you personally, but thats what i hate in todays throwaway society.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Medvosteri:
Well, to be honest. All of my phones have been going to my family, my dad now has my HTC 8X and my mom soon will walk around with the iOcean x7 (china phone). The Xperia Play has been used as a Car Navigation Device, up until the power button and touchscreen stopped working. I'm currently using my Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 as a car navigation device. Even my Samsung i8910 Omnia HD from way back was still used up until last year, when I was using it as a AUX musicplayer in my car.

I'm not sure, but I think that even my Samsung U700 is still present somewhere in my house :P.

I know I said 'throw away', but looking back, I've actually never thrown one away. My moto G will most likely be going to a family member when I stop enjoying the phone. Come to think of it, I would rather sell my phone to one of those 'Give us you old phone and we re-use it' companies (zonzoo) then to throw it in the trash.

I see your point though and companies seem to want this behaviour. Especially samsung and apple, which only marginally improve on their latest phones.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mokkami:
:good:Then i'll allay:highfive::)
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eastdata:
Well it looks like it's able to be resurrected without a fine soldering iron. Hopefully the battery will last for three years. The old phone is now a guitar tuner.

I think if you anticipate the end of it's life cycle, the battery might be cheapest past the halfway point.

I wonder if the sdcard image could be dumped and copied to a larger new one.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mokkami:
In that article what i have posted is written that even if you could replace the memory it would not work,

because you can not copy the operating system (whatever they mean with it) from the original card to the new one.

For that you would need special hardware, which is used by manufacturers to flash memory.

Hello All,

I had been annoying for weeks for this problem. When I start my game in Bluestacks in a Window under a VM environment, the game always goes into blank screen. I can know that the game has successfully loaded as when I click on some button (which I know where they are in normal situation), the app will proceed and be able to display some screen like notice page, which are some static page with text only. But it seems to be not the graphic of playing the game

I tried in VM of Window and also VM of Mac, neither of them is working... I also tried the latest BS from the official site or the 0.8.4.3036, both of them not working as well.

My VM Fusion is 10.1 and the windows is Win 7 Ultra version (T. Chinese), I am thinking if it is related to the tablet setting in the BS but I found no way to change it under 0.8 version, can anyone shed me some lights on this issue?

Thanks a lot!

So I woke up today and decided I wanted to get a custom ROM on my HTC One. This sounded all good. I unlocked the bootloader and rooted the rom. All was fine until I tried to flash a custom rom. I had the ViperOne ROM ready to go but it would install and then get stuck on the loading. I presumed I would just have to wipe everything and then re-install the zip. This is where I messed up. I wiped the MicroSD in which the zip was originally on.

So now I am left with a device that has no OS. Basically a paperweight. From looking around I have found some topics that say that I just need to flash a RUU back onto the phone but something always fails and never works out.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
You will need to buy a USB OTG cable, which costs about $5. This is a microUSB to full USB cable. On a FAT32-formatted USB, transfer the ViperOne zip to the USB storage. Then, in TWRP recovery, choose the /usb otg directory. Then, flash the ViperOne zip from TWRP.

FYI, you cannot flash a Google Play RUU if you're S-ON. The phone needs to be S-OFF for that
