[HTC EVO 3D] Smiecho:
Actually you can have 3D camera with custom rom. The problem is: it is possible only with ICS roms, because drivers for 3D camera are available only for Android 4.0.3. HTC did not release those driver for newer Androids. If you want to have KitKat then the answer is "no, you will not have 3D".

Example of custom ROM with working 3D: YAS4 v11. That's rom for my GSM but I'm sure you can find something for your CDMA.

BTW: There is a petition to HTC about releasing source code to those drivers. Sign it. Maybe that will help to include 3D in newer Androids...
[HTC EVO 3D] hossman:
If you flash the ruu pg86img.zip you will have stock recovery and stock ROM..while still s off
[HTC EVO 3D] sftrytry:
I am on Revolution 2.0.1 by mike1986. It is a great rom base on stock 4.0.3, stable mostly. I just found it lost ring volume sometimes. Other than that it works perfectly. My guess is that stock room might be the most stable and optimized for a daily driver.

evo 3D without 3D makes less sense to me. Also smoothness, stability, and battery life are all concerns for those 4.4 roms.

I already sign for the drivers, but I do not think HTC will release it.

Thank you hossman. I will check that.
[HTC EVO 3D] sftrytry:
I flashed PG86IMG.zip. Is it safe to receive offical update from HTC?
[HTC EVO 3D] hossman:
Yup

Cast Moto X screen to Chromecast!

Change build.prop line ro.product.device to hammerhead then save and reboot.

Easy!

I posted here in Android Development because those with unrooted phones can't do this...plus, it's just a downright cool tweak. :)
[Moto X General] gambiarraweb1:
Thanks, very easy ?
[Moto X General] hijax2001:
As mentioned prior, I was able to hack my build.prop, to convince Chromecast that my phone is a Nexus 5... After a reboot, the CastScreen option populated and just started working.

Initial thoughts... While it is still in beta, I figured with all the hype casting would be pretty polished by now.

Not so much.

The Chromecast struggles to produce video, and seems to heavily compress (or take a long time) to render anything. Photos do fairly well, but streaming video from phone to TV is totally useless.. I also recognized early on that the Chromecast doesn't seem to support 5g wireless, which would likely help a great deal with throughput.

I have seen a few YouTube videos showing better casting results, but using true Nexus gear. To be fair, there's a chance the Moto X isn't officially supported yet because Google may want to push all of this heavy lifting through our GPU.

Oh well, always fun trying new things.
[Moto X General] hijax2001:
One last thing...I encourage others to post their experiences here
[Moto X General] sklarskyj:
I discovered this build.prop edit on my own yesterday and tested it out. I noticed the heavy compression at first but things smooth out after a few moments. Quality seemed to be fairly good from what I could see. I'm I've got an 802.11ac router really close to my tv that my phone was connected to on 5ghz (though my chromecast was connected on 2.4ghz n). So maybe that had something to do with it. Playing sonic dash showed smooth clean graphics, but the latency was just a tad too slow to rely on the TV as a screen and the phone as a controller.

Watching MLB.TV quality definitely suffered a little and wasn't quite as smooth. Perhaps that was because I was streaming so there was data going back and forth to the router.

Also, note there is another post on XDA with an app someone threw together to enable mirroring on any device: http://xdaforums.com/hardware-hacking/chromecast/experimental-enable-mirroring-device-t2812193
[Moto X General] scoobaspeaz:
I would guess this performance will be on par with casting a tab from Chrome on your PC. I know that experience sucks.
[Moto X General] tdiman:
I do this wired from a desktop and it works extremely well - video, audio, whatever. I haven't tried the phone yet... but I'd check your network.
[Moto X General] scoobaspeaz:
Wired I don't have as much of a problem but wireless I do. Then again there are many factors but all network related. Chromecast in relation to the router, wireless devices currently using the bandwidth on the router etc...

Since most people are not hardwired to their network I think its a valid post to talk about wireless tab casting especially since you will be casting with your phone wirelessly.
[Moto X General] dobbs3x:
I'll try this on my moto x today. I'm casting to Chromecast from my nexus 7 and it works good. Not a lot of latency , buffering or anything. Quick and all, so I'll compare it with this hack on the moto x..
[Moto X General] Shanesgc:
http://xdaforums.com/hardware-hacking/chromecast/experimental-enable-mirroring-device-t2812193

This works on my Moto X pretty well. Latency is higher than my girlfriends S4, but it still works.
[Moto X General] gunvalk:
This version is great for people who rooted with pie root on version 4.4.2 since you can't modify your build.prop.

i just Bought my LG G3 Yesterday ,

it was used gently, as i appreciate the feeling of a new device in my hands like any geek,

i did not drop it ( no need to justify here )

i took my G3 to show off a friend and i asked people were in the room if anyone noticed that my phone fell in the past few minutes - one of them is working in a cellular shop and he immediately brought me the news that he already knows what happened by my response because some one who bought g3 from his store came back with the exact same crack and claim he did not drop the phone at all as well.

so i have a broken Lens, camera cant take photos right and i am Deeply disappointed By Lg as i was expecting a higher build quality,

i might be the first to report but just - wait for it ,

people will Google the problem and i am just the first to let you know.

photos added

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pilz:
It doesn't just crack I dropped mine off a balcony 3 floors onto some rocks and it broke the screen of my F400S and some other stuff, but the lens was fine. Hence why I have a D850 but lenses don't just crack.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whitlecj:
I just had the same thing happen to mine. Not sure how or why it happened but it did. It was in my hot car turned off for an hour or so and then when I got home ours later, I noticed it. It has never been dropped or hit.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EpicChineseTime:
i think someone hijacked your phone... lol friends are friends...

Sent from from my LG-D855
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ipwngeek:
It is a very, very small chance that it happened by itself - BUT if the glass was fitted in the phone, and was made with too high tension; it COULD technically brake "on its own". However, very rare for this to happen...

I just tried pressing my lens with my thumb, with quite a lot of pressure - didnt do anything
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whitlecj:
Anyone know where I can get a replacement lense or where to be looking for them when they come available? Talked to LG and they said they could repair but it would take 2 weeks and they could not tell me what it would cost. I can use my camera because my glass is completely gone over the camera, I would just like to get something over it to keep dust out.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftiedt:
I just bought an LCD separator machine send it to me I need practice lol. I seen someone else say the sent there's into lg and cost $150 to fix. You could always get a square trade warranty and go that route
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whitlecj:
If I could just find a thin 1/2 inch diameter piece of glass, I could fix it myself. Problem is finding the glass. Would not be hard at all to fix and like I said my camera works perfectly fine.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supposedmonster:
I just had the exact same thing happen. Phone was fine last night. Set it on night stand before bed. Showered and got ready in the morning. No drops. Got in the car in the morning and touched something jaggedy when I was stopped at a light. Weiiiird. Looks exactly like OP's pic. Luckily I paid for insurance since it's included in T-Mobile's jump program, so hopefully they'll swap it out.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DroidApprentice:
It is one of the areas of the phone which get hotter from use, but I find that an unlikely factor in causing that problem.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supposedmonster:
Yeah, I'm really at a loss. I kept it in the bathroom as I showered, but it doesn't get that hot/humid...not enough that one would think it'd make a substantial difference.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WilliamStern:
Hate to say it, but my lens just cracked as well about an hour ago. I went to take the phone off my desk, and it kinda slipped from my fingers. The phone never made it completely off the desk. The two bottom corners were still touching, and the top half maybe a few cm off. Nothing I would ever consider a drop. When I flipped the phone around, to my surprise the lens was cracked. I don't know what to say? Any other phone I've owned in the past this wouldn't have happened to it in this very same situation.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supposedmonster:
Yeah, man. My old HTC M7...I always run skinless, treat my phones like dirt. Dropped it maybe three times onto concrete from waist height, nothing. So this is pretty gnarly.

Update on T-Mobile, they basically said that they'd take it back under warranty IF it's a manufacturer's defect. But because it's physical damage, they'll probably flag it as user error and charge me for it. I'm claiming manufacturer's defect because I swear this happened spontaneously without a drop whatsoever. So now I basically have to call LG directly, and I'd probably be up for a fight. If anyone here has experience or advice it'd be greatly appreciated.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julz05:
Same Issue

Hey, I had the same issue with the AT&T version, ended up having to send it back along with my powermat (since I assumed that might have caused the crack). They repaired it without charge since they determined that it was indeed a manufacture defect. So if you have something similar it is probably a manufacture defect, and hopefully they will make a note of this soon.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idelgado782:
I just looked at my phone last night and I have the same issue. I'm on att and I'm going to call them today to see if they will repair it for me. I'm a bit upset honestly. The camera world buy the broken glass distorts the pictures and makes them look foggy. Julz05 who did you send it back to? LG or AT&T?

No matter what, I can never stay away from android for long.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julz05:
I sent it back to LG. I called the LG service number and explained the problem, they issue a RA# and you have to send it to their warehouse. Took them almost 2 weeks to fix the phone, and they are just mailing it back now
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idelgado782:
I wanted to come back and post an update for my circumstance just in case any in the future needs to do the same.

Unfortunately I couldn't send my unit back to att or lg because my water damage sticker had been tripped. I had my phone in my pocket and I went on a ride in an amusement park and didn't realize we want under waterfalls! Needless to say I got soaked and water seeped into the phone but after sticking it in rice overnight I was lucky enough to not have water damage besides the tripped sensor. I went on a search and found a seller on eBay selling the top piece which includes the camera lens cover, power/volume rocker. It cost $38 plus $6 shipping and took about a week to get to me. To replace it was fairly easy. Removed 7 screws and unsnapped the old part and then applied the new piece.

One thing to note: the original piece States 850 in various areas and the new piece States 855. However it is the same exact part and for $44 I replaced itself myself without having to be without my phone. Here are some pictures :

Here's the link for the eBay auction http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=351144850263&alt=web

Exact Same Problem

Hi - today I found the exact same fault in my phone. Like other posts here, I did not drop it or get any impact on the phone.

I am in New Zealand and am really disappointed in what I thought was otherwise a great phone. I now have to waste my time trying to establish whether I have any cover for this problem and also realise that it looks like impact damage and technicians will claim it was my fault.

I think this is a manufacturing fault and reading here confirms that something is very wrong here.

Thanks.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GroovyGeek:
This is for the D850 AT&T G3. I used Nomone to set resolution to 1080x1920 @ 480 dpi and observe two weird things:

1) Everything but the dock rescales correctly. This persists even after reboot and only happens in the stock launcher, Nova is OK

2) Several of the stock apps no loger work, and their icons change to generic Androids: calculator, calendar, clockemail, file manager, gallery, messaging, quick remote, tasks, voice command. Any attempt to launch these apps results in a FC. This happens both in the stock launcher and Nova, so I am guessing that they do not rescale correctly at the lower res.

Not a great loss, I would not be using most of these anyway, just curious if there is a workaround. I do not plan on running the monitor at more than 1080x1920. The only thing I will probably miss is the stock email app, I was planning on using that to access office mail via Exchange.

EDIT: Unfortunately it appears that I cannot set up an Exchange account with the lower res, on account of the stock app crashing instantly. This is a complete deal breaker for me, I absolutely need exchange and will need to run at full rez. Bummer, with the bootloader locked I probably can't downfreq the phone either to extend battery life.

EDIT2: You can work around every non-functioning LG app by sideloading the corresponding Kitkat stock app. Unfortunately the one exception to this is Email + Exchange, which is badly broken on stock Kitkat and Google has not bothered to fix it for many months now. For those of us that need Exchange for work this tends to be a deal-breaker issue

EDIT3: As others have noted, Swiftkey does not seem to play well with Nomone either

EDIT4: Nova is also exhbiting some minor issues, with our without Nomone. It does not break too many things, and the things it does break are mostly cosmetic - the icons of the above-mentioned apps turn generic, and the first group of Google apps in the drawer disappeears.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yellowchilli:
I changed the resolution, rebooted and got an android systemui fc loop that I couldn't get out of. had to factory reset :(

I then tried it again on a fresh device but wihtout rebooting this time. and like you said, a lot of things are not right...

so I'd say this is generally not recommendable

best bet might be paranoid android or something whenever that becomes possible

I agree, the display is draining the batt too quickly and I doubt underclocking the cpu is going to be of much help
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrian_nene16:
Did you try changing the dpi from 480 to 530? Anything less than 500 dpi seems to force close most apps.. Change it to 530 dpi and hopefully most things should run ok
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yellowchilli:
will try that, thanks
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FordT:
With the changed resolution I'll assume that you're rooted. You could use XPosed with the "App Settings" Module to change the DPI for the crashing system apps back to 640. I did this, and it works nicely. It is a bit of try and error in the beginning, but once you caught all apps you use it looks great.

This will probably not solve the icons issue, which is caused by LG not including the icons for other resolutions than what they recommend for the G3. They are available for xxxhdpi (640), but not for xxhdpi (480).
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] latino147:
I'm running 530 without issues sofar. Would love to be able to go a bit lower though.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yoavst:
Does the Lockscreen works to you on lower then 640dpi?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrian_nene16:
How's your battery life so far, do you notice anything?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GroovyGeek:
Thanks for the tips and replies, many of them quite useful. Running 530dpi with 1080x1920 is, IMO, kinda pointless, as it negates the benefits if the large screen., If we need to stick about 530 dpi (which seems to work nicely) the lowest settings that make sense are 1224x2176 with 544 dpi setting. This scales everything down by 25% from full resolution. With these settings I don't see the screen get notably warm and the icon and text proportions still make sense. With 1080x1920 @ 530 dpi things don't make any sense, it feels like you are using a 3" screen with high magnification.

So far there are only three things I have been unable to get working

1) Nova launcher to correctly display the custom icons for the above apps. Apex works fine so I have switched from Nova to Apex.

2) Swiftkey - it just gets mangled badly. I will try the "per app" setting in xPosed, but I can't see how it will help.

3) Kitkat stock email.apk with Exchange. This is a long-standing KitKat issue that Google has not bothered to fix. The LG mail works fine with Exchange but does not thread. Any good alternatives?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] latino147:
don't know, went back to the default resolution as too much stuff was off, like Swiftkey
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drixnya:
Not actually my phone, but I'm asking since I'm the techie in my family. Mother-In-Law has a Metro PCS Samsung Galaxy Exhibit (T599n) and she is having storage issues. Normally I would root and just delete/move things around, but this phone is proving to be a pain in my rear with moving apps. I have it rooted as of now, but if anyone has any suggestions on how to use the SD card and not the internal storage for apps I would really appreciate it.
