Yep, Airave doesnt support LTE, but do turn off data at home as its an unnecessary drain, dont know about your internet but my Comcast 30Mbps is faster than using the network, plus Airave uses 3G by drawing fom main internet anyway. Also restrict your Airave in settings to only your family numbers unless you want unnecessary connections from neighbors causing bandwidth loss. If you have a big home, call and Airave support will increase your Airave power output to cover about 5,000 Sqft.
[Sprint LG G2] johnzm:
Sorry, but theres no reason the phone should not be switching dynamically to 4g as the signal comes available. When I'm at work, and on 4.4.2 it will stay on 4g, and flip itself to 3g in the middle of a file transfer!!

on ZV8, it will get 3 bars of 4g in the same spot.
[Sprint LG G2] abhinav.tella:
Airave does not support LTE, so if you dont set it to CDMA only it wont connect to Airave. Thats why even Sprint support says to set to CDMA only, when near an Airave.
[Sprint LG G2] un1ocked:
data connected on voice channel is 2g, not 3g

there are 3 channels: 1xRTT, EVDO, and LTE
[Sprint LG G2] OfficialPerson:
What I'm more referring to is the settings in mobile networks. You have to put it to 3g/cdma depending on your rom and whatnot to be able to connect to the airave.
[Sprint LG G2] snoopdog:
Band 26 isn't out yet if i'm not mistaken. I believe 41 is limited also. Disabling 26/41 will bring you back to nonspark band 25
[Sprint LG G2] johnzm:
i dont know how airave got involved in this thread. i could care less if i get solid 3g at my house, i am more concerned about the spark rom's delivering a reliable 4g connection when its available (which it does not)
[Sprint LG G2] beezar:
It's not a great of a solution, but it is automated. I have a profile with the state being connection to my home wifi. Enter task turns off keyguard, then enters mobile data settings, turns on the screen, and then uses two touchscreen taps to tap mobile networks then CDMA.

To execute screen taps, you use a Run shell command of "input tap x y" where the x and y are coordinates of where you want to tap. You figure out the coordinates by showing touch data in the developer options in settings. Be sure you enable root access for the run shell command otherwise it won't work.

Then you can shut the screen off with a system lock. The exit task is just opposite.
[Sprint LG G2] OfficialPerson:
Yikes thats a bit of a setup I'm using anycut with a network settings shortcut on my home screen it goes straight to the setting page for switching to lte/cdma.
[Sprint LG G2] beezar:
Well, Tasker can enter the same page that switches lte/cdma via the Mobile Data settings. The issue is there is no Tasker setting or plugin or anything I've seen that lets you actually change the setting without simulating button taps via a run shell command.

Like I said, not a great solution, but it works. When I enter my house, I'm on CDMA, and when I leave, Global setting without me doing anything.

hi. i can't install the boot animation on my galaxy nexus. i get an error in twrp. i have the latest c-rom installed. any tips? thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] drmxmyt:
this wouldnt work on gnex,

updater script has "run_program("/sbin/mount", "-t", "auto", "/dev/block/stl12", "/system");". but it should be like "/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.0/by-name/system". this is clearly not for gnex.

but you can unzip it and copy the files to necessery folders and set permissions to 644. that could work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tarekh020:
I think it's not flashable . you only need any root explorer to replace it in media folder

[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] flawless:
Recently I added a screen protector to my Alpine, and after that the screen started acting funny any time it was left alone. Removing the screen protector has made no difference.

After a short while of not being used, the screen becomes misaligned, for example if I leave it off for an hour, attempting to activate the start menu on the today screen will result in one of the today items being pushed, or attempting to select a number on the password entry will result in a different number being pressed.

The strange thing is I can re-align the screen through the control panel, but it will slowly go back to the way it was.

Anyone got any thoughts? At worst, I'll just refund it (I bought it where I work, and thats no problem) and get another handset, but if theres a fix I'd prefer to stick with my current handset.

Cheers in advance for any help!
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] TommyGun:
I am not sure about this, but I had the same problem with Motorola A1000 touch screen - could it be that an excessive pressure was applied to one of the sides of the digitizer during the application of screen protector? The digitizer is glued on the LCD, there might be a remote chance that it has slid a little to one side. Also some extra glue could have shortened the contacts on the bottom part of the digitizer. I would try to clean it first with some anti-static liquid. Hope this helps..
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] christopherwoods:
Indeed, this sounds like there could be more pressure to one side of the screen than the other, hence the digitiser tries to adjust for the pressure difference and gradually falls out of sync.

Try reapplying your screen protector, more gently than last time if possible, but don't wipe from side to side, wipe from top to bottom with an even pressure. Also, try realigning the screen with the protector off before reapplying it.

I had a problem with my screen originally before I got my screen protector, insofar as I got that 'rainbow' pooling effect in the centre of the screen where the digitiser was touching the LCD layer - after about a week after application of the screen protector, however, the more even layer of tension provided by the protector somehow pulled the digitiser away from the LCD layer, so my screen has actually gotten better since then... That said, I could imagine that uneven tension on the top layer could lift the LCD and digitiser layers further away from each other on one side than on the other, causing the problem you describe here. If you can bear to, try using the phone for a couple of days without the protective top layer applied, and see if the alignment gradually slips out as it's doing at the moment.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] flawless:
I've been using the phone for the past two days without the protective cover on. I'm going to reapply it now and then see how it goes tomorrow. If its still screwed, I'll reflash it to the O2 ROM and refund it at work on Tuesday.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] flawless:
Got a replacement, so no problem now. Thanks for the help anyhow :)

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OgziR:
hi guys,

Since there are loads of posts about roots and after whole day of searching i didnt find any satisfactory answer, half of them says one thing another half says something else, therefore i would like to ask you for help.

Im user of note 3 sm-n9005 unbranded with kitkat 4.4.2 n9005xxuenb1. official knox 0x0 and no root yet.

My question is simple, is there way to root my note 3 without wiping, flashing custom roms, triggering knox and still be able to receive ota updates? just simply add root?

thx in advance.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thahim:
if you root you wont get OTA anymore.

I used cf-root on my galaxy s4 and note 3 n9005 4.3 and got sucessful.

Cf root will trip your knox and phone will be left without warranty.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] giuliomvr:
if you have root, you can install wanam xposed and fake system status to offical. After that you can OTA.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
Can download yes, but install no, to install you have to unroot or go through a different method to install.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] giuliomvr:
okay, than the only thing one can do is to update with odin, which doesnt trip knox as well

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
Well there is a way to do it, not 100% sure myself as I never done it, but it can be done (with MOP Afaik) - but yes, a full flash via Odin will preserve KNOX status
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultramag69:
Unfortunately that ship hasn't just sailed but is over the horizon, hit an iceberg and sunk....

You needed to be on JB firmware, pre MJ3 to root without tripping Knox and then update using MOP to flash KK. You then needed to flash the KK bootloader with PC ODIN. This would retain root and leave Knox untouched allowing OTA. Root would be lost as soon as the OTA happened but you could download and flash again with MOP retaining root...

You can't root your phone now without tripping Knox...

If you do decide to, the best bet is cf-autoroot with PC ODIN.

I'm going to say again - NOTHING at this time will allow you to root without tripping Knox....
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OgziR:
okay so i dont care now bout triggering knox. so my question is if its possible to root my note keeping actual fw and being able to update and install ota.

[G2 General] TheNetwork:
I think the G2 still has the best camera by quite a margin if you know how to use it, and I haven't even tried 4k or other camera improvement mods. The only thing the HTC phones have on it is low light pictures, which I don't think most people do anyway.

The OIS helps a hell of a lot for someone like me that has a hand tremor that's really bad at times.

What's your opinion on the camera? I'd rather have my phone than a $200 point and shoot as long as I don't need to zoom.
[G2 General] Rdmkr:
it's good under a lot of conditions, but very, very slow. Until you mod it. Then it's all around slick.

I've compared it to a Samsung Galaxy S4 and Lenovo Vibe Z camera (with f/1.8 lens) and both were less precise by a wide margin and frequently had pictures ruined by hand shaking.

The OIS doesn't just counteract the visible shaking; it reduces micro-shakes that blur your pictures without you noticing them. As a result the accuracy of this camera is about 3 megapixels higher than normal (my estimate).

All this being said, it's still a cellphone camera, so it has major flaws. It has only an f/2.4 aperture, which is mediocre for a high-end phone (though OIS counters it a bit by reducing subject-motion blur). Movement and low-light photos get ruined often. And I disagree that these aren't common conditions.
[G2 General] Rdmkr:
here's a quick demonstration and proof of the sharpness difference between Samsung Galaxy S4 and LG G2:

Samsung Galaxy S4

LG G2

the top pic is what the S4's pic looked like when it did NOT get blurred by hand shaking. most pictures turned out worse than that.
[G2 General] nomad4ever:
Didn't the OIS not only kick in for videos? Just saying... Sounds like placebo to me. I don't shake much usually, but I get a lot of blur pics...
[G2 General] OfficialPerson:
The stock camera is pretty good but I tried out Jishnu's cam mod and its great 4k is really beautiful though the 720p 120fps is very pixelated and imo not really usable. There's some features that are supposed to be included like HFR mode for front camera but I don't seem to have it for some reason.

[G2 General] TheNetwork:
I find it to be significantly better at low light than my Samsung phones were. HTC is definitely better at night but terrible at day. Sam used to black out completely when the light got even slightly dim. On my g2 it at least tries to get somewhat of a picture without relying on flash which makes pictures an ugly blue.

[G2 General] pnut22r:

[G2 General] joeynox:
The g2 has a terrible camera. On a sunny day it works great but on an overcast day. Or around 6/7 pm when the sun is going down it's pure garbage. This camera take in almost no light. There's no reason why in my kitchen with my light on lets say a 5/10 brightness should pictures be almost black. On my lumia and iPhone 5s, hell even my iPhone 3gs the view finders were all still lit bright and pictures were taken basically how my eye saw them.

LG really screwed up on the camera . this phone would have been perfect if it wasn't for the poor view finder lag/low light . there should be no noise on a photo in reasonable light and there is no reason why an ISO of 200 produces a dark image indoors with dim lighting when my ancient iPhone 3gs takes a beter low light indoor shot . I hope the g3 is a better camera or I'm jumping back to Nokia and wp8.1
[G2 General] joeynox:
heres an exampe of the terrible light intake of this phone. first image is on the lumai 920 in normal mode at 200 iso the second image is on the g2 in normal mode on 200 iso. itsblurry but thats notthe problem bother were taken at 730 ish am in the same spot , i just woke up please excuse the mess ;) also this is daylight coming in from the window behind me the room light was off
[G2 General] Billy Madison:
You really don't know nothing you're talking about. Fire up intelligent Auto mode and stop set iso to 200. G2 knows better what ISO it should make picture in. It has Snapdragon 800 under the hood which one is supposedly x1000 much smarter and x1000 times faster than your s****d brain :laugh:
[G2 General] joeynox:
my IA is a dumb dumb. , the problem with IA is that the image will still have a high iso and have noise or be extremely soft. yes you are correct it will brighten the image but at the cost of image quality and noise.
[G2 General] Billy Madison:
well, I see your point, you want stock camera to point-and-shoot and make descent pix. and I want stock player to play Adobe flash w/o any hassles. and someone want G2 to play music loud in stereo with BoomSound. That's why xda exists, there was not made a phone to be perfect from the box. maybe you may want to try some 3rd party cameras like http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.GoogleCamera or https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.almalence.opencam https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.almalence.hdr_plus

Hi,

I am planning to buy a galaxy s3. Actually I do not need LTE but I tend to buy the LTE for the 2GB RAM.

Do you think there is a significant difference in performance between both versions?

Are there any good reasons to take the normal s3 instead of LTE version?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] GR0S:
Well, on N5 you can keep more than 2 apps active, I believe this happens cos of 2GB ram, so 2GB of ram are necesseary now
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] anguslaw:
I think there is no good reason to buy s3. Just go get the LTE version.

I don't know if you have used LTE (4g) before. If not I can tell you, 4g is way faster than 3g. So getting a 4g compatible device is a smart move. You may not want or need 4g now, but definitely 4g is the trend. For example in hong kong ,4g coverage is very well already.

Of cos the 2g ram makes a big difference in performance.

But if taking into account of nexus 5, I would suggest nexus 5.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] topaza:
Thanks for your reply. I don´t think the N5 is an option for me even though it was my first idea for my new phone. I don´t like the weak battery and the missing sd card slot.

Then I thought about the S4 but when I read about the self-destroying displays I dropped this idea.

Now I chose the S3 as I think it still is a great device and it provides everything that I need plus it is also much cheaper (<200€ instead of 400€ for the N5 32GB)

This question is not specific to the G2 however since it's the device I currently own I figured I might as well ask it here since it seems as good as place as any to ask. That being said I would like to know how I can explore the contents of a TWRP created nandroid backup from my PC running Windows 7 professional. I have already transferred the files to my computer without issue, but when I try to extract the "data.ext4.win000" or "data.ext4.win001" files using 7Zip it just says the files are not supported so I am not sure what piece of software I need to get to open these files and explore their contents from within Windows and any help would be greatly appreciated.

You need a specific program to view the files inside, as soon as I check the one I use on my laptop I'll let you know

Ok so here's what you want to do rename the file to data.est4.tar.gz and you will be able to explore the archive using 7zip
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtcellph:
I did that and there was a Tar file inside of the tar.gz file which I tried extracted to my desktop and tried to open in 7zip, but it would not open so I am at the same spot I was in to begin with
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
for some reason that keeps happening with the data folder but you can easily view the system
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtcellph:
Thanks again for the reply. I was trying to view the DATA folder as you may have guessed which as you found out does not work (or atleast I could not get it to work for me) on Windows so I had to boot up into my Ubuntu partition on my machine and concatenate the 2 .WIN files into one file using the following command from the Ubuntu terminal.

cat data.ext4.win000 data.ext4.win001 > data.tar (or tar.gz if compression was enabled when you created the backups in TWRP)

I then used the built in archive manager in Ubuntu and was able to browse the DATA partition and extract the information that I needed. This should not be necessary, but as we both discovered, windows (for whatever reason) does not seem to be able to handle the DATA partition while Ubuntu can so if anyone stumbles upon this post wanting to know the same information then you should try downloading a live cd / live usb version of Ubuntu (if you don't already have it installed on your machine that is) and running it and follow the steps above to access the files in your DATA partition.

Note: In the above example I had to combine the 2 data.ext4.win* files into one file before I could access the archive. If you do not have multiple data.ext4.win* files then you can skip that step and go straight to the next step which is opening the data partition in the built in archive manager that comes with Ubuntu.

HTH,

Sorry - please ignore this post - I don't know what I'm talking about sometimes...:)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProfEngr:
I know the thread is over 6mon old, sorry...

I have a recent backup from TWRP 2.7.x and really need to figure out how to get into /data/media or whatever the equivalent is in the archive. I did a 'cat' of my 4 data.ext4.win00* files and opened that in Ubuntu. All it contained was a big stack of APKs and a subfolder with a bunch of 0 byte objects. What bugs me the most is that the file browser reports the data.ext4.tar.gz I created at 3.3GB, but the ubuntu handler only reports the /data folder inside at 1.6GB.

I lost a buttload of data and files to an Odin restore necessitated to wipe 2 stubborn cache files. Nothing I tried could change their properties (thanks G00gle). Anyway, I ended up doing a full wipe of the phone thinking I had a good TWeRP backup on the extSDcard. Wrong.

I just checked system.etx4.win* and found the same/similar files under it's /app folder.

Have I lost all those files or is there something else I can try? TIA.
