rooting is simple, but everything else is a big question mark; on my TMO LG flex, the bootloader is locked down tight, and we have nothing for our phone. It took almost 6 months to get root, which already works on the G3...If things will be any different on the G3 still remains to be seen...

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maves23:
I had the same problem when i flashed my device for the first time.

Just use ODIN and flash again Recovery. I use TWRP cause its easier to use. After that Make a Backup of your EFS Folder and install through TWRP the ROM again. Dont forget to wipe Dalvik / Cache before rebooting in the new ROM.

And it should work then.

Good Luck. And as always, on your own risk.

Hi,

I have made this boot animation myself by following everything I could find on the internet. I have followed (at least I think) all the instructions but I can never get the boot animation to show up in landscape mode.

I have the AOKP rom installed with ElementalX kernel.

I am able to have my own boot animation work but only in portrait mode.

I attached the file.

If anyone could check the file out and maybe make any corrections, that would be really awesome.

The .jpg images are 1080x1920

[Sony Xperia M] elmkzgirxp:
Let me correct you there: Flashtool will work even if your bootloader is locked. If it doesn't show the bootanimation, it means that there's something wrong with the kernel. Search for a stock kernel that is appropriate for your device here then flash it through Flashtool. If you want to keep your data, just flash the kernel alone.

When I first got the phone it worked great on T Mobile and the Internet didn't have any timeouts. Then Sony released an update that seem to screw my data up I can't remember which one it was. Then Sony updated again and it sorta improved but it was still flakey. It was to the point where I thought my device was bad and timing out since the modem must have been updated I was gonna send it back Sony.

Ever since this latest update I really haven't had the time out issue anymore I know it wasn t Mobile's fault because I use my sim in another phone to test. anyone else notice this? C6806 plus my speeds rock now. Not that they were super slow but inwas seeing 70mbps earlier

[One (M8) General] juntjoo:
I got this phone mainly for the speakers and reports that it's faster than my previous s5, and indeed it is but it feels slower also, but just more slower than the s5 at it's fastest so more steady I guess. Is smoother I think. Maybe it manages its performance to be that way(?) Either way I'm liking it. The display seems softer but barely anything to complain about unless you're an eye candy person and come to think if it I shall miss the s5's nice in-your-face display. And I take it in the shower with me, carefully, since the speakers can handle the job, but I'll miss the s5's battery life(what do these companies do, purposely watch what the other is doing and out-do them in only half, not much more, not much less, of everything important in a phone?).

It's such that I couldn't really complain with ending up with either. Now to have the z2.... Aaah, the best of both worlds, kinda, less speakers but better than s5, but better waterproof ability and I think battery is on par with s5 no? Anyway, just sharing some thoughts, but originally I was curious about how it performs compared to the s5 having very similar specs. And how much faster does it get after rooting it, and 'tuning' it?

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Hi,

I own a G3 with 2 GB of RAM, like my previous Nexus 4.

In the N4, with CM-11 or AOSP, and with the same apps that I use in the G3, the free amount of memory was more than 1 GB all the time,

but in the G3 I have 300-400 MB since a few minutes of restart it, and only 500-600 just after the restart.

Any solution to this? Really is relevant?

Thanks!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tectas:
Having also the almost same amount of free ram and for me, it pretty much sticks there, no matter how many apps are opened, sometimes there is a launcher redraw, but except of that i haven't faced any problems at multitasking.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
yes, which most noticeable is in the redraw of the launcher, especially when closes the gallery app
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tectas:
This can easily be fixed though, with a third party launcher with persist in memory enabled.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tectas:
Well, i must confess it's not a real issue to me, I'm using pretty many widgets and the only one i really notice it is the clock/weather widget, everything else is almost instantly back up.

But that's just me. For sure it will be way better when the first aosp roms come up, because of their way lower memory footprint.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] haris182:
Wait for CM11 come to our G3

Then compare the RAM usage
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
Free ram is wasted ram.

Android, or more specifically Linux doesn't use ram in the same way as Windows would, it retains things in memory so that you can quickly resume it when you need it (therefore having less impact on the CPU and battery).
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobsie41:
But on this device it is not being managed properly. At least the launcher should be kept in memory without the user having to root and do it him/herself.

These problems were fairly common when high end devices had 1gb ram but with a relatively light launcher and 2gb ram there is no excuse IMO.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
I have had no issues with the launcher redrawing, I did have some minor lag when I was purely stock, but removing a few LG apps that I would never use has solved this.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tectas:
How many times did you tell this chant allready^^

And sure you're true, but the well known (from the galaxy s3 at least, which is my former device) launcher redraw is based on the available amount of ram, the thing isn't really the "free ram" here, it's more the amount of ram that can be freed up on demand to load something new into it and the launcher redraw points into the direction, that there sometimes is a shortage, because the data of the launcher has to be released, because there wouldn't be enough ram for the new application. This isn't the big issue, the launcher has no priority at this point and it takes a big amount of ram, so it's understandable that the system releases it's memory if there is more demand than currently "free". So the current "problem" is less related to "free" ram, but the lack of ram persistance of the launcher, combined with the amount of usable ram for the user, which can lead to freeing the memory of the launcher more often. This would happen to every launcher without persistance at every amount of available ram tough some times, but the higher the available ram, the less often it will happen.

That's not an issue for me, like already said, but the point behind it is understandable to me.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Batfink33:
I've noticed in the kernel settings that 600mb of Ram is being used as ZRAM. Could this be an issue?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrPhilo:
I'd still prefer to have 'free or wasted' RAM, at least you know you have some RAM spare plus apps do get killed faster and some don't retain all the information in the RAM (Asphalt 8 and other big games) and restart the app (when playing games and then browsing), but 3gb is doing fine for me :)
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
Launcher redraws are down to poorly coded apps, not the ram available on the device. Keeping more free ram is effectively just a dirty workaround to solving the issue that you are using a poorly coded app. Yes in this case its a stock app and there is little excuse for it, but it doesn't change the fact that it is the app at fault, not the devices ram. You shouldn't just keep throwing more ram at a device to counter the fact that people are not optimising their apps properly.

If the launcher had persistance then the device would probably be killing something else in its place, and I don't know about you but I like all my apps to work, I don't want any of them killed, therefore I would rather have a better coded app that meant that nothing needed to be killed. 2GB of ram is plenty for a device like this to cope just fine.

FYI - I removed LG's "voice" app and I have had plenty of free ram ever since.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Protagoras:
Guys, stop blaming RAM management, it's done exactly as it should be done in Linux / Android. As Lenny said (multiple times) free RAM is wasted RAM. I'd rather see the phone use it. The problem, if there is one, is the launcher that doesn't handle "lack of free RAM" as it should. 3rd party launchers do that well (Nova for example), so LG is the one that needs to be blamed here. Having more free RAM would not solve the issue, only delay it.

On a related note, perceived lag might also comes from that: some people always close all open apps to free some RAM (for no reason), so restarting an app from scratch would indeed cause a small lag. If you keep them all in memory, perceived lag is reduced (not completely gone, but reduced a lot).
