And when the device is actually rooted ??? How to completely remove McAfee ???

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donjamal:
Use a file explorer like root explorer, navigate to system/apps (I'm not 100 sure this is the correct folder) and just simply delete the apk. Reboot if you want and you're done. Or use an app manager like titanium backup and find the app and delete it.

mcafee support

Im new to the forum but have been following for a while. I contacted mcafee support and received an email from them asking for my email associated with the account, my imei number, the phone number associated with the account and a buddy number of which i sent the info and received a pin number from them. I then went to apps within settings, clicked on mcafee security and then clicked on manage storage. It then asked for a pin which i put in and low and behold afer about 3 minutes it now gives me the option to force stop and uninstall updates. :laugh:

Hope this is helpful to others that do not wish to root their phones.

I think the app is named LG-Mcafee.apk or something like this (got rid of it long time ago). Delete the apk and you're done. Obviously root required as well as file manager like Root Explorer.

The Gift from Mcafee security app

In my country, Thailand, the Mcafee in LG G3 is not just app for virus protection but it acts virus alike. Mcafee will send SMS through mobile phone network provider automatically 2-3 times everyday since first time mobile phone activated. I was shocked from billing of oversea SMS from Thailand to America sent by Mcafee almost 50 times within 2 months without any notification or acceptable reaction from me. I had to stop all SMS sending function from my phone number to anywhere both domestic and oversea. only receiving SMS allowed. This was a special thing powered by Mcafee security app in LG G3 for loss phone protection. Thanks LG.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _tyler_:
I properly configured it after I flashed a new ROM and TiB just can't find the backup in my Dropbox. I can't find the answer but it seems other people have the same problem. I really don't want to have to download all the individual backup files and reinstall my apps one by one. That's not why I bought the Pro key for TiB. So...does anyone know how I restore my apps from my backup?

Edit: After 4 tries of uninstalling and reinstalling, apparently, you just need to hit Run in the Schedules section and it will download it from your Dropbox.

Edit: So it appeared to download all my apps but it still wouldn't let me actually restore the apps or data...

Edit: And it somehow managed to get itself to work. Problem unintentionally solved.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jipthebest:
Hello,

I've recently bought a new xperia arc. I've rooted it and after that i installed several roms (4.4.2 - 4.4.3). These roms had different kernels. On all roms wifi supposed to be working, but after a few minutes it doesn't work anymore. I have to restart wifi and after that it works for around 5 minutes. (5 minutes with screen on) Now I was heading to another home and over there, the wifi worked perfectly. So I suppose the problem is caused by our router (thompson	TG789vn). The stock wifi from my phone worked perfectly.

This problem was on my xperia X8 too (rooted and android 4.2), but did'nt exist on my xperia J (stock kernel/rom). A friend of mine has the same problem at our home too with a Xperia Neo (stock kernel/rom). Soo it looks like a strange problem. Can someone help me? I tried everything (statici p, google search, other kernel etc.)

Sorry for bad english

hello!

i just installed a fresh new copy of Windows Vista x86 Build 5600 and I've realized that Windows Mobile Device Center isn't installed.

I've searched and at Microsoft I've downloaded a file: drvupdate-x86.msi which appears on Control Panel as Windows Mobile Device Center Driver Update!

Well, It's not the program, is it??? I instalde Driver Update but I don't seem to install the Program at all!

I've searched on XDA and I've found some tips, which I've tried with no result!

Add Key to registry at HKLM\Software\Microsoft named WHOS. it's supposed when I plug USB cable to PC and Universal, appear on Windows upgrade saying there is a new upgrade available. Doesnt appear!

I've seen a topic saying:

"...Yes I have it working with both USB / BT :=)

Try this procedure.

1. Download this file.

http://www.download.windowsupdate.co...bc9 4587a.exe

2. Extract it using winrar.This will give you a file "wmupdate.msi"

3. Now be sure to logon to Vista as the built in admin and run "wmupdate.msi" and after that reboot and again login as built in admin, let it complete the install.

4.Login as your regular user, connect you phone and all should work:=)"

Downloaded the file and done all right but I dont seam to make it work!

I've ONCE installed WMDC with no errors but the device appeared "NOT CONNECTED".

Now, after a NEW fresh instalation, I cant even install WMDc!

Please help!

I would like to keep vista installed, but without sync there's no way!!!!

I have an ATT Galaxy S4 and installed safestrap 3.72 no prob…flashed goldeneye no prob, used it for a cpl days then made a backup of it and tried to flash hyperdrive15 as directed by xda thread and when i rebooted just went black for a cpl mins and kept going back to safe strap so i tried to wipe again and install recovery first my golden eye backup(which i later learned was a no no on the stock rom) then my stock rom and getting i keep getting fail…something about unable to mount /system and /systemorig..so i tried advance wipe everything except extsd and also receive fail (unable to mount /system and /systemorig) only success is regular wipe but its not doing me any good. I know im a complete noob and probably did something stupid and also that you senior members hate stupid post here but please I really dont understand what happened....Also I have tried to flash golden eye rom over again and it is just going black and shutting off mid flash...I tried making a new rom slot to see if maybe i could just flash rom on new slot but no luck. I have looked EVERYWHERE and havent found anyone that has had this issue,lol which add to my feling of stupidity...ANY IDEAS???:confused::crying:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sway8966:
You did not mention your phone firmware but based on your post, your firmware might be NB1 or NC1 since you said that you successfully installed the safestrap 3.72.

You did not mention which version of GE you flashed but I guess that might be GE28 or later. If you did, those roms are based on KitKat (android 4.4.2)

You flashed the hyperdrive15 which is written for jelly beam (android 4.3) based on the rom for the MK2 firmware.

GE rom installation for safestrap did not mention to install the rom in the different slot, so I guess you installed the GE rom in the stock slot.

Hyperdrive15 installation for safestrap mentioned to create/switch slot so you may or may not install the rom in the stock slot.

As far as I know, safestrap 3.72 does not support extra rom slot other than the stock rom slot. It appears that hyperdrive instructions were written for the safestrap 3.71.

May be that was your mistake.

My suggestion been odin the stock rom that corresponding to your firmware. Use tworl root to get rooted.

Thank you so much SWAY...that what i did and just started back over...you were right i was running nc1 and had GE35....so to explain the reason i used hyperdrive15 was bc i tried 17 and on first boot it stayed on boot animation for 30+mins so i figured something was wrong and shut it down...and i was also very confused bc it says to falsh correct compatibilty pack and the only one i found is for 15...am i wrong? is there one for 17 or do i just use the one for 15?...thank you again
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sway8966:
I do not know much about the Hyperdrive since I am a GE user. Also, Hyperdrive 17 mentioned that it would work for the ATT phone but 17 is posted only the Verizon forum.

For the ATT phone with NC1 firmware the steps for flashing the custom rom involves - 1)flash the rom, 2)flash the NC1 kernel module and 3) flash the supersu.

The correct compatibility pack might be referring to the kernel module, I guess. In that case, the pack for 15 might be written for the MK2 kernel module and it might not work with your NC1 firmware.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] omino323:

I've captured some slow motion video on the G3, but when I try to export it anywhere, or play it in another player it just speeds up to normal speed.

Surely this can't be right. It should save the video to be played exactly how you see it in the native player on any other device.

Does anybody know how to get it to stay as slow motion even after you've exported it, or save it as seen in slow motion?

It doesn't matter what you take a slomo video of, the point is that the phone doesn't let you save the movie in a way that can be played in other devices. Surely it should do that.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bad4ss:
I've seen a few slomo videos on YouTube made on the LG G3, how have they done that, if you can't actually save the video as the slowmotion version?

Surely, you'd want to show off various or interesting slomo videos to friends and family, so there must be a way to do it. I've looked for an app, but surely it should be native on the phone?

e.g. on my old HTC EVO 3D, the 3d videos were stored as 3D to see on a 3D TV for example if saved on a USB. Surely if you save the SloMo video to a USB you should be able to see the video in its slow version on a TV. Is this something that LG overlooked, or is there something that we're all missing on the phone?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RonsonDk:
The recorded video file is ~120 fps:

Frame rate mode : Variable

Frame rate : 119.659 fps

Minimum frame rate : 116.732 fps

Maximum frame rate : 122.783 fps

To see it in slow motion you would have to set it as 30 fps on a computer and save it again. No need to recompress it or anything (so no quality drop at all) but you need this extra step to play it back on a device where you cannot manually slow it down.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bad4ss:
Thanks for that info, I wish thought that the phone natively did that, so there was no need for that extra step, I think LG are missing a trick there.

[General Omni Discussion] Entropy512:
Problem is we're in the process of getting a new maintainer fully spooled up. There are various techniques device maintainers have available to them that need to be used for certain device maintenance tasks (like a full upstream merge) which aren't normally available to gerrit users.

Andre hasn't quite yet learned how to properly wield his newly-given powers. Specifically, the kernel tree really shouldn't be a fully squashed merge, but individual commits. He reverted the squash but the push of the individual commits failed last time he tried it. He went away for a few days around the same time pulser sorted his access, so the kernel is still backleveled.

I could fix this myself, but I want Andre to do this on his own so he knows how to do it going forward.

I dont think i have found a stable rom yet. I know i should not ask which is the best rom but still can someone suggest a rom which can be flashed to this phone.

The problem is that after i will be meeting my friend for a day and i cannot flash it for a long time. So i dont want to put a rom and then after few days he finds serious bugs.

So some suggestion please. I usually go for omnirom or cm11.Some advice regarding rom,kernel,recovery would help me a lot
