Thanks,

but what do you mean change some links? Outdated/dead links or you mean that way, we need to manually update the hosts file with new sites to be blocked?

OK, here's another one in the ask anything bin...

I've only had a few hours to try out my new G2 before I decided to return it to the seller due to a display problem, but one thing I noticed is that the display can be a little dark at lower screen brightness value. That could be due to the fact that LG trying to "imitate" their Korean couterparts' OLED screens high color saturation and also that they use a high gamma setting. But don't get me wrong here: I was very please with how the G2 looked and how nice shadows/mixed light/dark scenes looked in movies. The thing that made me worried a little though is that I often found myself jacking up the brightness settings - finding myself most often having it set around 35% when indoors.

As a comparison, my previous phone would almost always be bright enough for a daily use at around 15%. The G2 display seems to start "lighting up" once we past the ~25% mark and again, found myself using around 50-60% while watching a movie.

So, my question is: anyone has experienced this and has experimented on how the display brightness level affects the battery consumption? Something like: one hour of movie watching at 30% brightness vs the same at let's say at 60%. What kind of %/hr difference would that give?

Again, for the short time of my testing, I was very pleased with the way the battery lasted, but I'm just curious to learn what I can expect day to day usage in regards to screen brightness.

OK, long post again; I hope it's all clear at least. Thanks for any feedback.

My microphone volume is too low in any CM based ROM, like BlissPop, etc, so, any call recorder apk can't record my voice properly, people can't hear me properly in WhatsApp audio, etc. Can someone help me? I have a LG G2 D805 (compatible with any 802 ROMS).
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JHW3:
I have an LG G2 D800 that I bought second-hand. I'm in Canada but mine is the AT&T model. When I bought the phone, it had been rooted and set up with 4.4.2 (CloudyFlex 2.8). I haven't changed it since then.

I would like to install a Lollipop ROM to take advantage of some of that version's features. However, I don't want to lose out on battery life, features, or stability.

In the past I have rooted and installed custom ROMs on other Android devices, but I'm a bit more nervous with my G2, as I'm new to this device and don't really know the history. Additionally, a lot of the advice out there seems somewhat dated.

Any advice on what Lollipop ROM to go for, and how to go about doing the update, would be most helpful.

Hello.

May I delete stock eMail client from AOSP ROM? Or it is needed for some purpose. (Have K-9 mail client)

---------- Post added at 11:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:27 AM ----------

And same question about native camera app as I have other one from LG.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stroge:
I use root app deleter for this same purpose. There is an option to choose "Junior mode" and try freezing an app without actually deleting it. It remains disabled until you enable it, even after reboot (however it will still be visible in the app drawer until the first reboot).

In "Pro" mode you can actually remove the applications.

I freezed like 20 system and bloat apps (including e-mail client, messaging, etc.) without any issues.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] [] AL []:
To be honest, I really don't see the point of using a specific app for this.

You want to "freeze" an app, use a root file explorer and rename its file extension (from x.apk to something like x.apk-bak).

System apps are located in Root/system/app or Root/system/priv-app and user apps in Root/data/app.

And yes there should be no problem deleting or "freezing" stock email and camera apps.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stroge:
Well, i didnt think about that way, but if thats pretty much what root app deleter does, then it is a solution as well! Thanks!

Hey [MENTION=3703649][] AL [][/MENTION], what display problems did you have with your g2? You're right about the brightness, it is low as if it has more increments.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] [] AL []:
I'm not an expert at screen replacement, but it seems like if one side wasn't secured properly. And there were some discoloration going on upon me pressing at various points on the lower-right area or the right edge of the screen. Those spots would move left/right depending on how much pressure I apply and I would see that happen while just using the keyboard. So a bit the bullet and asked for an exchange.

What makes me a little worried is that I've also observed that (to a lesser level though) on the first G2 I received (returned that one also because I received the wrong model - but my mistake). So it seems to me that I'll have to be particularly careful with the G2 display... Ive also seen quite a few people saying that they've had touch problems (section of screen becoming response less).

Maybe, the narrow side bezels are making it harder to secure the display in place on this phone?

As for the brightness, I was just looking for a ball park estimate on how much faster battery will drain with regards to brightness level.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Art Vanderlay:
Yeah that definitely isn't normal. My g2 feels pretty solid in my hand and have to apply a bit of force to get some discoloration on the screen.

I haven't used my g2 in a while but I normally keep my brightness at about 35% and it'll last me throughout the day with about 15% left with moderate use. I've had it for 2 years though, its seen many battles.

I just tried again with my old and trusted Motorola and I can't seem to get any artifacts no matter how hard I press...

..Guys I need help. So I'm using a flip cover which I have no idea how lg g2 knows on which postion I have set on.

Basically, when the front flip cover is behind the phone as in fully opened, it thinks I have it on the front side and turns of the screen.

How do I tweak this to fix? I can't find the any quick window customization either which I'm assuming might have settings for it... Managed to get in to the quick window setting but nothing after it
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] [] AL []:
Most flip covers have a magnet helping holding it when closed. This is one of tge reason why I would never use those and most probably also the simple cause of your problem here.... Magnets and electronics (and credit cards) don't mix well...

[emoji336] [emoji490] [emoji481]
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Art Vanderlay:
Not that I know anything about the g2 mini but on the g2 you can't just delete root. You have to flash the stock firmware again. And that custom reboot animation is enough to block the ota. You can't have any system changes.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] y300owner:
It's magnet free. It's a strange issue anyhow. I do want to use the cover but this 'bug' is pretty annoying.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] [] AL []:
Ok, well, was worth a shot...

[emoji38]

But if it really behaves like so only with the case on, there ain't a ton of possibilities: either something is physically touching the screen or blocking sensors or it's electromagnetic (like magmet or a static charge of the case components).

A few years ago, I used to occasionally trick my (first) smartphone to go into the docked mode by placing a magnet at a specific spot on its back cover [close to where the camera was] ...

Anyhow, good luck and let us know if you finally find out...

In order to unlock the bootloader on the g2 you flash a lokified custom recovery image(they are already pre-lokied) and the devs put a command script in there roms that makes sure you are lokified and if not it will loki it for you so you don't need to worry about it
