[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amsage3:
This a rather specific issue, but none of the forums for my car were able to give me an answer. I drive a 2013 Hyundai Sonata GLS.

So I just recently switched from iPhone to Android, and I have been having a **** of a time getting the phone to connect to the car via the USB port in my 2013 GLS. With my iPhone, it was as simple as plug n play...not so much with the Android (it's a Verizon LG G2, for what it's worth), as every time I plug in the USB cable, I get "Connection Error" on the screen, and then it just switches back to whatever audio mode I was in before.

I know the USB port actually says "iPod" underneath it specifically, but the owner's manual vaguely hints at a universal USB music mode...I've gone through the menus and tinkered with some of the options, but am unable to find a solution. I really do not want to use Bluetooth. I will buy a car charger and aux cable and just have two connections if need be, but I gotta believe there's a way to have a non-iOS device hooked up through the USB port and be able to play music through it. I don't even need metadata to show up on the screen, just a simple connection would do it!

I am running AOKP 4.4.2. This issue persists even with MTP USB mode activated.

My setup.

Rom: Stock LG G2 rom (d802)

Other Xposed mods enabled:

-Burnt Toast

-Complete Action Plus

-G2 Xposed paid version

-Instagram downloader

So basically when i enable SwipeBack from Xposed and restart the phone, the stock LG G2 gallery crashes. And when I disable it, it works again.

What to do?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] nabilbek:
I am on cm 10.1.3

GPS not working, tried different maps and GPS tools... Still it stays grey in the pulldown panel ... Doesnt lock
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] noob noob:
I can't seem to shake this issue despite trying a few different ROMs, though I didn't have this on stock, so I'm hoping someone can venture a guess as to what the source of the problem is. I haven't found any solutions through exhaustive searching, and I don't even see anyone with a similar problem.

Whenever the headset is plugged in, I get music and video files playing through the headset just fine, but as soon as I press the Google Search button (to go to Google Search, with the option for voice search and all) whatever sound was playing goes straight out the speaker until I close it or actually complete a search, sending to the browser. I've had this happen a few times in public, loudly disrupting everyone around me.

I'm using CM 11, 0224 nightly

I've disabled voice playback on the search app, but to no avail.

Does anyone have any idea how to correct this?

(Oh, and if someone can inform me how I can get my ringtone to go through my headset instead of speakers, or if I can't, which ROM can let me do that, that would be super great)

[Xperia Z2 General] SwiftSmoke:
Sounds pretty good on the Sony to me. Crisper and not as distorted at high level as on the HTC.
[Xperia Z2 General] SuperMarioGalaxy:
The Sony sounded good for me too. Personally I think the Z1 was already very listenable at high volume in a store, no excessive tests done. The HTC was total crap, at least in that video. Wouldn't listen to that.
[Xperia Z2 General] JMonkeYJ:
I have the HTC One currently, and tentatively planning on the Z2 for my next phone. Just for the record, the HTC One has excellent sound, the best I've ever heard on a phone. So the fact that it sounds crappy in that video is more a reflection of how bad the recording/environment there is than anything else. Speaker quality is very important to me, so I'm eager to see some reviews of the Z2 in better surroundings. Even if it's not quite as good as the HTC One that would be OK for me. I think it will be hard to top the One.

it is clearly in par with the one .. if not sounding better but htc one is also kinda last years device ... so the real test will be against HTC ONE 2 or whatever it is going to be called .
[Xperia Z2 General] SwiftSmoke:
true most websites throwing up comparisons at the moment are only Z2 and S5 as the newest handsets anything else in the comparisons is last years model from manufactures.

[Xperia Z2 General] amirprog:
Z2 wins my heart also in speakers out of all phones on the market including m8. it stands strong against m8 - it's even better in some types of music. it's truly amazing what sony did here - the best speakers on the market there with m8 yet it's completely water and dust proof! unheard of! overall, Z2 smashes m8.

[Xperia Z2 General] Shan89:
M8 is actually water resistant in a way it has IPX3 or something like that so basically it can survive water splashes/ rain and in that video 97minutes under the water ? but yes not as much as z2.

http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/21no0u/psa_htc_one_m8_not_waterproof/
[Xperia Z2 General] g4rvd4:
Frankly I found the M8's sound clearer in most types of music but the Z2 was not too bad either. Pretty good for a waterproof phone, definitely.

To be very honest I had to think long and hard between these two phones when the M8 was released, but I'm inclined towards Z2 for the following reasons:

- Don't have to put up with Sense and extremely annoying Blinkfeed (wouldn't have been so bad if the latter could have been disabled). On the same note Z2 has a very lean Android skin.

- Arguably better camera on the Z2 along with the dedicated camera button

- Finally a phone that I can use in the rains without worry (it rains pretty heavily here during the monsoons)

- Extra gig of RAM

- (Much) bigger battery

- Built-in noise cancellation which is a novel feature that I'd definitely like to try on flights (I fly a LOT) - My Sennheisers recently stopped working :crying:
[Xperia Z2 General] Galactus:
I'm thinking about getting the Z2, having owned a HTC One.

1. You can disable blinkfeed (since sense 5.5). I'll also add that Sense is a light skin. The fact that HTC get the One (Dev edition) updated to Kit Kat in 30 days after the Nexus 5 was released is pretty damn good. Majority of carriers released Kit Kat on the One in January so yeah they have a lean skin and a good record of keeping up with updates

2. I really really hope Sony do a better job of optimising the battery in the Z2. The Z1 has a 3000mah battery and yet, is really low in battery charts and a lot of people complained that it didn't do justice
[Xperia Z2 General] g4rvd4:
Why do you prefer it to the M8?

I first used Sense on my HTC Desire 4 years ago. My brother currently uses a One, and I can't say I'm fond of the skin. I'm a more vanilla kind of guy, and if there ever was a Google Play edition of the Z2 I would grab it in a hurry.
[Xperia Z2 General] Galactus:
Not really a preference, but I've seen everything I need to about the M8. If the Z2 doesn't have good battery life then I'll go with the M8. I'm tired of having a smartphone with good features that doesn't last long enough to let me enjoy the features that make it worthwhile.

Hmmm I don't mind vanilla android but I'm not too keen on it. Having flashed the GPE rom on my One before, it was good initially but man oh man the camera UI sucks A**. I also missed the audio quality of my One which went down on the GPE roms. I currently prefer a light skin on top of Android which meets the middle ground in terms of speed and features. Sense does that for me. It doesn't lag like the Samsung phones I've used in the past. I used a Z1 for a few days too which was also smooth with plenty of features. Wasn't too keen on the noise in my photos though

Speaker comparison from eprice:

http://www.eprice.com.tw/mobile/talk/124/4899806/1/rv/sony-xperia-z2-review/

There are talks of the site being paid off by LG to promote their product, seeing as how the LG G Pro 2 is apparently almost as loud as the M8. :confused::rolleyes:
[Xperia Z2 General] solwretep:
Yes I agree! I believe so too... seeing that the photo shootout on that site used a weird version of Z2 also....
[Zooper Widget General] davidayling:
Hello you helpful lot here at XDA

I have just started using Zooper widget pro but i have no idea how to use apart from adding existing templates from the play store. My question is how can I create sections to split up the wallpaper i am using.

For example the attached picture has an ocean wallpaper with what looks like a black overlaying box created in Zooper at the bottom half of the screen.

I would really like it if someone could tell me how to create those said "boxes" to break up my custom homescreen

Thank you in advance and i apologise for being a Zooper Noob :confused:
[Zooper Widget General] kwerdenker:
Hi there and welcome to the wonderful world of Zooper :victory:

You have two possibilities to achieve this: you can either set the widget background to a color of your choosing and then resize the widget to cover the whole screen or if you want to have only parts of your widgets with a background you should add a Rect module and resize/position/configure it to your needs.

I hope this answers you question and if not, please don't hesitate to keep asking :)
[Zooper Widget General] davidayling:
Hi and thank you for the awesome tip.

Your instructions were easy to follow so huge thanks. Only question I have now is can I place a uccw widget over the laid Zooper one ? And if so how can I do this ?

Thank you in advance. People like you keep me coming back to the most helpful forum on the internet :good:
[Zooper Widget General] kwerdenker:
For that you would have to use a custom launcher that supports widget overlaying. Popular ones like Nova or Apex have that option in their settings. After you activated that option, you should be able to resize or place another widget over the Zooper widget.

Though since Zooper has at least the same functionality as UCCW, why not try to recreate the widget directly in Zooper? :)
[Zooper Widget General] davidayling:
Hey thanks again. Your a pool of helpful knowledge. 2nd nooby question how do I overlap on Nova. I can't find it in settings. I'm using prime btw
[Zooper Widget General] davidayling:
Ha found the overlap option but my problem now is I can't place the icons I'm using in Nova over a black line made with Zooper widget. Any ideas?
[Zooper Widget General] ma11en:
Have you ticked the 2 options to allow overlapping icons and widgets in Nova Settings > Desktop?
[Zooper Widget General] davidayling:
Awesome thank you for your help. Now i can customise the hell out of everything. Next ill learn to make custom widgets.

Thank you ever so much!!!!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sizequeen:
Does anyone know of a rom or some sort of mod that works with the G2 (D803 Bell Canada) that enables a stronger vibrate/haptic feedback response? I've owned a few Android devices over the years and as much as I love this phone in particular, I really am disappointed with how weak the vibration is.

Coming from a Samsung Galaxy 3 which I could hear vibrating on the table in the room has me spoiled I guess, but the G2 is just terrible. I can't feel it at all and I'm really hoping there's something that can be done.

Thanks in advance for any help.

hello

i reinstalled my ROM after installing FREEDOM and the google play wasn't working

i installed it about a month ago and it worked out fine, i rooted the phone again but didn't do anything with it

today after using the phone for a couple of hours i plagged the charger in and then i saw that the screen is all black

and all that says is :

fastboot mode started

udc start

i tried everything with the power + vol down and it keeps getting into the same screen

the phone just stuck in this and i can't recover it

i have read the other questions that people wrote here about this problem and couldn't find an answer

PLEASE HELP ME SOLVE THIS!!!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jace759:
I was in the same situation tonight. I have the AT&T variant. I found the answer on droidforum(dot)net by member HARVESTERX:

"OK, so you're booting into fastboot and trying to ADB from there? Have you tied booting into recovery (since you said that you were able to successfully flash one)? I'm on the Verizon G2 so not too familiar if it's the same on your model, but to get into recovery I power on the phone by pressing and bring the power and volume - buttons at the same time. After seeing the LG logo I have to release both buttons and press and hold power and volume - once more which takes me into the factory reset mode. From here press the power button a few times as if I'm doing a factory reset and it loads up TWRP from there.

This has saved my ass once already because I wiped my internal storage mount by accident and deleted all my backups and ROMs, so I used a Windows XP computer (can't get any other version of Windows to recognize my device...well I know how but it involves more time than I have at the computer as it's not mine) and pushed a ROM over using ADB that way. It's been a few days so hopefully you've fixed the issue... "

This method put me into TWRP and I was able to RESTORE my phone to the backup I had done earlier this evening.

I hope this helps!

Version 1.6.2.4 Date 15th Nov

To check your current software version, go to:Start > Settings > System > Device Information > Version. If you see 1.6.2.4 WWE then you don't need to flash to that file above.

Even if you do, yes everything on your phone gets wiped. Contact and calendar dates, as well as emails, notes and favorites will get saved to your PC if you have Outlook (the full version not the Express one) installed and you perform an activesync with it. To get the data back onto the device you sync again after flashing.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Keitaro:
If you are not experiencing any major issues that prevent you from using the phone for all of it's normal operations then it's not really worth upgrading. There's always a chance that something could go wrong during the flashing which could result in a dead phone, in extreme cases of course.

Under general usage, you'll most likely see some speed improvements and a few new features flashing to this newer version but nothing that substantial.

Just remember that any extra applications you installed on the Vario and the data that they generated, eg games with highscores do not get backed up to the PC via activesync.
