[LG Optimus G Pro] hitmantb:
Getting very weird issue when I charge via USB cable connected to PC.

"Charging started" screen would pop-up every 5 seconds or so endlessly, I have it on charging only mode and made it stopped showing pop-up's. It is still showing up as notification every 5 seconds and vibrates the phone. Very annoying as I can no longer charge this phone at work. I doubt it is sleeping during charging either so very slow charge with USB.

On bluetooth skipping

So does anyone have a fix for that? Is there anything that can be done? As much as I like Kit-Kat, I'd give anything for reliable bluetooth audio ---

if there is no fix in kit-kat is it possible to downgrade the phone?

And as for the LED lights, I have setup the downloaded apps - but it still doesnt work, with downloaded apps.... any further ideas here?

Very dissapointed with LG on this one.

Wifi Bug

This is sort of a followup to my previous post here.

I am definitely having a battery drain issue and after days of debugging it, numerous factory resets, and 3 reflashes.

Today I came to the conclusion that there is something wrong with wifi (which I rely on heavily due to my limited data plan).

Basically, when wifi is on, but whether it is connected to a network or not, the battery will drain very fast (appx 10%/hr), the phone will never go into Deep Sleep, and the phone feels warm to the touch with the screen off.

If I turn wifi off completely, the phone can then enter sleep mode and battery life becomes amazing! (appx 1-2% drain per hour!). Phone also feels cool to the touch.

This could be an issue with an app, but I can't pinpoint the app in Wakelock Detector or Better Battery Stats. Also, if it is an app, then I also can't figure out why it's only happening on Wifi, whether I am connected and using a wifi network, or if I have wifi on, but connected to mobile data instead.

I am highly suspecting an issue with the ATT firmware or something.

Picture attached is of my wifi settings in case someone wants to try and repeat the problem.

I'm actually curious to see if anyone else has problems. So to accurately repeat, connect to a wifi network using my settings for several hours. Then leave the wifi range, but leave wifi turned on. Do this part for several hours too. Then, just turn wifi off completely.

For me, I had severe drain all the way up until I turned the wifi off.

BTW: I am getting a lot of wlan_wake and wlan_wd_wake according to my sniffer apps.

Nevermind, I have FINALLY solved my problem. I had an Xposed module installed called Xposed Torch. It had ads, but I couldn't see them due to my ad blocker. The module, when installed, was constantly connecting to wifi and forcing my phone to never sleep. There's an option in the module's settings to disable the ads, and once I did, the phone began to sleep like a baby. It sleeps with wifi on, whether it is connected to a network or not.

I NEVER had suspected that it was this module, let alone ANY module.

NOPE! Even with the Xposed completely disabled, the problems come back within a few hours.

It's the "High Android OS Bug." Once it starts, Android OS consumes up to 50-90%+ of battery and the phone never sleeps. This causes a steady, but fast battery drain.

I really hope this gets fixed soon by AT&T, whether it's just a patch, or a 4.4.4 release or something. Soon though, and not in the next few months. I'm afraid of my CPU melting or something due to all the heat! My phone gets REALLY hot if I'm using it once the bug kicks in. Like REEEEALLLY hot. (this is a brand new phone too- my old OGP got bricked and was replaced this week- and I've tried two batteries as well).
[LG Optimus G Pro] Mes3:
Bluetooth on my G Pro sucked before Kit Kat. Was really hoping KK fixed it. Kinda wonder if its a hardware issue.
[LG Optimus G Pro] aaivazi:
I have had the exact same problem. used wakelock detector but it was of little to no help. android system is taking up 70% of the battery life and its a massive drain. i thought it may have been google now after the update as the app itself is sorta glitchy (works when it feels like it).

uninstalled and reinstalled and thought all was well. but this morning had the same issue. wakelockdetector mentioned it was wifioffdelayifnotused contributing to the wakelock issue. Had no idea what to do, so i uninstalled yahoo mail as it was the next in line after google search for wakes.

Since the uninstall my phone has been deep sleeping (knock on wood). no idea how this prob started, i regularly update apps but if yahoo really is the reason behind this, i'm gonna be a lot more hesitant with future updates. if it aint broke..

let me know if your situation is similar. i had a 10 percent draw per hr.
[LG Optimus G Pro] aaivazi:
initially thought yahoo mail was the culprit for the wifioffdelayifnotused wakelock but now im thinking its rom specific issue in wifi advanced setting. I unchecked the box for battery saving for wifi/minimize batt usage when wifi is on. it seems to be doing better now, but then again i came to the same wrong conclusion yesterday. have you had any luck?
[LG Optimus G Pro] spexwood:
Yes, but it was an odd fix. I ended up returning my phone to ATT and they gave me a "new" G Pro. I think I had a problem with the CPU since it never entered Deep Sleep. The CPU never slowed down and stayed at 1.7GHz all day, even when the screen was off. This caused the phone to never sleep and to also be uncomfortably hot in my pocket. It also caused the battery to drain really fast, and all background tasks- such as Wifi- continued to run for hours as if the screen were on. Basically, despite the screen being turned off 99% of the day, the phone was acting as if I was using it non-stop.

I tried reverting back to all versions of Jelly Bean and the problem persisted, so that made me suspect hardware problems. The phone also began to reboot randomly too, but it took about a week and a half for this to start.

The phone I returned was already a warranty replacement, so it was a "Factory certified "Like New."" I had it for about two weeks and had issues with it ever since day 1. The replacement I have now is also "Factory certified "Like New,"" but is working perfectly fine and deep sleeps extremely well. It took some convincing for the ATT clerks to make the exchange. They told me that the phone was supposed to get hot and that the random reboots were because I was still on Jelly Bean and that all the apps in the Play Store were getting updated for Kitkat, so that was most likely causing the reboots. Both of these were bull sheets. The phone should not get so hot that it is painful to the touch and the phone will still work 100% even if apps were getting updated for Kitkat.

Anyways, I still think that battery drain when the screen is turned on is worse than on Jelly Bean, but in my case, the deep sleep issue is fixed.
[LG Optimus G Pro] dray:
WiFi has been the biggest issue with me. It randomly quits working and I have to toggle wifi or airplane mode off then on... Really aggravating... Anyone else having this issue or have a fix for it??
[LG Optimus G Pro] vaterp:
I do too. I've got unreliable wifi - unreliable bluetooth and led lights that stopped working.

I wonder if the SW on the G3 is this unreliable? I used to love this phone - but really giving second thought to continuing with LG product line. I dont understand how you can mess up so many drivers when the entire package is built explicitly for ONE phone. How can that not get tested?
[LG Optimus G Pro] dray:
I must admit the WiFi has been unstable dating back to JB 4.1.2 and has just progressively gotten worse. With a suspect WiFi radio and no unlimited data, it renders the phone useless...I mean, I barely use it to make calls...sucks.

1- You better ask in the box for the N900T: http://xdaforums.com/note-3-tmobile

2- AFAIK, N900T has the same hardware with the N9005 (international) so you cannot flash N900 firmware. However you may flash N9005 firmware. But to ensure if it works you should ask in the box for N900T.

3- Once you have flashed N9005 firmware, you can use "CSC Changer" tool to change the CSC to your region (Czech). 'CSC Changer' tool can be found in my app Phone INFO ★Samsung★.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] lavaniol:
Hi

I bought a used T-Mobile P999 phone for my wife. After installing the LG Update tool on my laptop, it now has the latest baseband( March 2012) running the v21y version.

I then bought the P999 from Wind Mobile. I now know that the LG Updater Tool will not let me go about v11h.

I got a Stock Rom from the web for T Mobile P999 and flashed the Wind Phone. Everything was updated except the baseband which is still June 2011. Is there a way to basically clone my wife's T-mobile phone into my Wind Mobile phone? I tried updating only the Kdz file LG_KDZ_FW-Update_OfflineFix but I ran into some issues; not sure what I am not doing right but the update would not complete as described in the documentation.

I was running EaglesBlood 2.3.7 Rom until recently; however I was having frequent shutdowns lately, freezing when the alarm is snoozed, bluetooth freezing the phone ... I initially thought it was the ROM but now I realise that it is the baseband that needs to be addressed

Thanks in advance

Hi Guys! Good News! Advanced Stock Kernel is now Up! Please proceed to this link to download the file.. if you followed the steps provided from post 1 what you need to do is to copy attached file to internal memory and flash it via recovery.

The EASIEST way is just simply download the file from this post Advanced Stock Kernel Kitkat extract boot.img using Winrar or 7zip to your desired location. Using Flashtool click lightning select Fastboot then select boot.img you just extracted then connect your phone via fastboot, Flash! then Reboot!

note: To completely fix root permissions simply reboot your device to recovery mode then reboot system via recovery it will ask you to fix root just simply navigate to fix and select then it will automatically reboot.. :D

BUT, it stuck on bootloop...

So, no luck
[Sony Xperia ZL] anagramgenius:
because the bootloader is locked.

you have to downgrade to a rootable firmware, root it, take a backup of TA partition.

upgrade to new firmware.

unlock bootloader

flash the kernel which has custom recovery. enter into recovery and flash supersu zip.

then flash back stock kernel. and relock bootloader.

never unlock bootloader without taking TA partition backup.
