[T-Mobile LG G3] aimfire72:
Long story short, went to my T-Mobile store to compare to display models and possibly do an exchange. Compared side by side, trying out different stock wallpapers at 100% brightness. The two display models they had were also yellowish, but noticeably much more dim. Compared to an employee's phone, his was also yellowish and very dim. My phone looked good compared to all those!

Stopped by a 3rd party T-Mobile store on way home to see their display model. Not yellow at all, it had the cooler blue tone, but also much dimmer than my phone. Decided to go to the store where I originally purchased mine and compare to those... Both display models had the blueish tone, as well as the manager's phone - however, mine was still much brighter than all. So was going to exchange and we opened the new box... That phone was even more yellowish than mine and also much dimmer. Opened another one, just as bad! Those were the last two they had in stock, so they arranged for me to go to another store and try again.

Got to the other store, they got a new phone out for me - same yellowish tone and dimmer than mine. I didn't want to make them open every phone again, so I kept my original phone and left. The manager thinks they may have gotten an "off" batch maybe, and if that were the case, then every store in the area would have phones from this batch. He suggested that I come back in about a week when they get a new shipment, perhaps from a different batch, and try again.

So... out of 10 T-Mobile phones that I saw today:

- 4 had cooler blueish tone screens

- 6 had warmer yellowish tone screens

- My phone was brighter than all of them!

Not sure what to make of all this, lol... cannot believe the differences in the displays on this phone. And why is mine so freakin' bright?? lol... Is it a freak accident or did I maybe somehow get like a 2nd revision screen on my phone? Not sure... What do you all make of this?﻿
[T-Mobile LG G3] bfranklin1986:
I've noticed no tint on mine and it's plenty bright. I keep it at 60% and it looks great
[T-Mobile LG G3] BACARDILIMON:
Mine is good and keep at 40 to extend battery just a bit. When rooted and I remove a lot of junk I will be ok for whole day.
[T-Mobile LG G3] mingkee:
I also noticed that (see my reply in "screen problem" thread).

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=54262695&postcount=17

Open Google.com with Chrome (or stock browser) using desktop view to compare.

I used my Note 3 to compare (100% brightness).

The one has "reddish" tint seems to have more problem (dark screen, overly shaded fonts on standby screen) while "cool tint" one looks "normal". In addition, I found out cool tint one runs cool.
[T-Mobile LG G3] RMXO:
Nope no color tints

FYI, I found a corp store has both good and bad models

DO NOT buy the one on the left (warm color). NEVER, EVER, EVER, EVER, EVER, EVER BUY WARM WHITE SCREEN MODEL!!!!!!!!
[T-Mobile LG G3] wase4711:
too bad you didnt have the same page up on both phones for an accurate comparison.AND, some people like warm tones more than cool ones..
[T-Mobile LG G3] aimfire72:
Excellent - thanks for that pic!

It's crazy how bad the differences are! There haven't been many reports of bad screens, but when there are, it's usually the T-Mobile version. No idea what's going on with their phones.
[T-Mobile LG G3] wavrunrx:
how do we know the brightness was set to the same level on each phone sir ?
[T-Mobile LG G3] aimfire72:
Why would he lie? lol

Some of the screens on the T-Mobile models vary wildly from phone to phone. If you have a good screen, then cool... but some of us do not and are trying to figure out what's going on.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Skizzy034:
ATT model I had was warm/yellow and also a little brighter. TMO one I bought yesterday is cool/blue but a little dimmer. I always prefer the cooler blue screens.
[T-Mobile LG G3] aimfire72:
Yeah, the cooler blue screen is normal, you got a good one. :)
[T-Mobile LG G3] mingkee:
The reason not to buy warm tone screen one is such screen appears to have more problem (heating, overshadowing, and darker screen) than cool tone screen one.

Both were adjusted to same conditions (brightness, wallpaper) but the one on the left did not have data access.

---------- Post added at 04:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:27 PM ----------

I already set the brightness to max on both, and set no color adjustment on accessibility.

Even you may not be able to see the page, check out the soft buttons on the bottom.

In addition, I need to check the return policy if I get "warm" screen one because I mentioned above.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Skizzy034:
I've seen quite a few people actually prefer the warm/yellow screens on devices.
[T-Mobile LG G3] mingkee:
It's not about screen whiteness preference, but I found the units with cooler white screen seem to have less problem.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Skizzy034:
Personally, I can't stand yellowish whites. It makes the display look "dirty."
[T-Mobile LG G3] xb0n3z:
Have any of you noticed that after a week of using your phone the yellowness went away? Mine and my wives phone are nice and white, however she thinks is not as bright as it should be, but mine is just fine.. She just said when she looks at pictures its fine, maybe a contrast effect from the stupid color bars they put up top for everything.
[T-Mobile LG G3] shook187:
What problems you talking about?

So much false information in this thread it seems comical.

Also that picture of the 2 G3 side by side is a false representation. They not even in the same page, do they even have the same brightness setting?

[T-Mobile LG G3] aimfire72:
For every device that comes out, there's always a thread for people to report issues, compare devices, share solutions, etc. That is good... When these companies pump out millions of devices, there will sometimes be a bad batch or a lack of QC here and there. This is very normal and to be expected. Unfortunately for customers, we will sometimes get stuck with one of these bad units, or several if from the same bad batch.

-MOD EDIT-

The guy that posted the pic of the two display phones side by side is legit - he said that both phones were set on 100% brightness.
[T-Mobile LG G3] willdiddy:
By chance have you slept since you rooted your phone lol?
[T-Mobile LG G3] boosting1bar:
Mine was yellow, took it back to T-Mo and complained. Had to call customer loyalty but they agreed to swap it after I showed it to them in store beside the display models.
[T-Mobile LG G3] mingkee:
Mine has cooler screen than some units in corp store though it has a bit red tint, but mine has almost no lag.
[T-Mobile LG G3] aimfire72:
You're lucky you got an exchange, T-Mobile not very nice about that. Is your replacement better?

BTW, there are now a ton of videos popping up all over YouTube showing the differences between G3 displays across carrier versions and even on the same carrier... Hmm, I was given a lot of crap by a few people when I first reported this last week, now it's become a known issue. Waiting for those apologies now... ;)
[T-Mobile LG G3] sweets55:
Are you the same guy on G+ in the LG Community that tired like 8 G3's from T-Mobile and AT&T then went back to M8 because you couldn't find a G3 that you liked. If so man dude you have some serious bad luck and must really like the G3 to spend that much time and hassle. I would've called it quits after 3 but luckily I have a good G3 from T-Mobile. Well it seems great for me but I'm not really looking for any issues just enjoying the phone.

I think most phone junkies like us know when you buy any phone when just released the chances of getting a bad device is greater then waiting a month or two. All manufactures have a bad batch or two.
[T-Mobile LG G3] boosting1bar:
Yeah the guy in the store didn't believe me until I showed him beside their wall model and he said, "holy ****, that's bad" lol! He tried all sorts of stuff (which I'd already done), and agreed it was a bad device. He asked the manager to change it for me and he said they couldn't. Then they called their corp office and asked and they said no also but that I could send it in for warranty replacement. After we hung up, the guy in the store said, "you didn't hear this from me, but if you call customer loyalty line and really ***** about it they'll authorize us to do it." So I stepped out of the store, called customer loyalty and complained for about 4-5 minutes. The guy went through his whole algorithm of solutions and I kept just saying the only acceptable solution to me was to change my device right here in the store where I am and eventually he authorized it. We got a couple phones out and powered them up and they were all nice and clean, bright white. Of the wall model, the two we opened and mine, mine was the only yellow one. It was actually really nice to have someone there in the store acknowledge there was a problem and help me resolve it. Good for him.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Nitemare3219:
Got mine from a T-Mobile store and it has a cool tone, thank god. I can't live with yellow. Side by side with my N5, the N5 looks ridiculously warm and I never noticed it. Or maybe this display is too cool. Either way, I love it how it is. Colors are slightly saturated but I don't mind that either.

[T-Mobile LG G3] Skizzy034:
I had to exchange the first G3 I bought and this one has a perfect display. Whites are perfect. So are the colors. The only thing that's wrong is how hot this one gets. I don't know what I would dislike more, yellowish screen or a device that gets pretty hot. Can't decide if I should try another exchange.

[T-Mobile LG G3] BACARDILIMON:
I don't have a g2 but I think it is totally different screen as in hardware and software. I happy with what I got. Have no complaints. I mean realistically it is a cell phone not a 10000.00 4k ultra high def TV. It beats my note 3 screen

I found a way. Go to market. Download launcher pro..the actual old original launcher pro. Don't open the app. After you download it go into widgets by holding empty space on home screen. Scroll to the launcher pro icon in widgets ant tap on it. You'll see a massive bunch of hidden features. Go till you see home. Tap then tap on the first one that says hidden menu themes etc...I hope this made your day. :)

This request is a little unusual, but I'm wondering if there are any Hermes users that can help me find a file and post it up.

If you're using Cyberon Voice Commander 1.6 and have bluetooth working with it, please look in the registry in:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway\BTAGExtModule

I'm using a Prophet, and the file it uses is OEMAGW.dll. As far as I can tell, this file controls/launches the voice dialer software. I'm hoping the file that comes with the Hermes will make the Prophet's version of CVC 1.6 work correctly with Bluetooth.

The file should be located in the Windows folder, but it might be hidden so File Explorer might not find it.

Please help! Thanks a bunch!

Hi Guys

On a stock Nexus 5, not rooted or anything.

Phone started factory reset without my help…

All three events happened while the phone was in my gym shorts front right pocket, upside down, screen facing me.

I was doing dead lifts or squats – the shorts were preset pretty tight around the phone.

I’m lost, since all official factory reset method are too complicated for this scenario.

Any idea what happened? Can it be a long press on buttons or the repeating body/phone movements?

Appreciate the help.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
you can factory reset while accidentally pressing a single button.

and question go in the q&a threads, not in general.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsgraphicart:
Your phone unlocked, went into settings somehow, scrolled down to the backup and reset option, clicked on it and clicked factory reset all from inside your pocket?

That has to be the most random thing a phone can do in a pocket without being touched.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
na, bare skin, or sweaty(moist) skin/cloths can make it get into places you never thought possible. while accidentally unlocked, i had moist cloths/skin get my phone to places that i never thought was possible. especially while moist, it can open weird places so fast..try using really wet hands on your screen. you csn try opening things, but other things will open.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsgraphicart:
That's still pretty random. The only other thing I could think of is that someone has access to his Android Device Manager and hit the wipe device button? From a tablet he may have or something. I don't know if you need a password for that since I have never done it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
while it is random, its not as random as you think. as ive found my phone(s) in open in random places on many occasions. it is rather unlikely that it reset the phone, but it is more than possible for it to happen, just by chance.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinnadyr:
I guess this is possible, and today my Nexus 5 (only rooted) did a factory reset by itself for the second time.

The first time it was in my jeans pocket, no moisture. Now the second time, some moisture due to me cycling and keeping it in my cycling jersey, but seriously? Confirming and all that ****? Also, I guess it went into bootloader and the volume/power buttons where pressed to reset it. I can't imagine it would go through my menues for the second time around

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hexagono:
So, I dropped my phone while taking it out of my pocket and it fell screen down and the LCD cracked. The glass was intact, touch was still working, it just didn't showed stuff. So I sent it to Samsung and they've exchanged the screen. Now, when it's in low brightness the screen has a purple-ish tint to it, and even in max brightness the notification drawer have the same tint. I've searched on the web and is seems to be a software problem, and it was recommended to flash the stock kernel. Since I'm on 4.4.4 with CarbonROM, I can't flash the stock kernel, so I tried other kernels and the problem is still there.

Now, I'm thinking that going back to stock firmware with the stock kernel and then going back to Carbon will fix the issue, but I'm not sure it will work, and plus, I can't find the OG firmware, since the links in this topic are removed. (Btw, if you can provide me the firmware, I'm from Brazil)

If going back won't fix it, then what can I do?

Thanks.

I have Z1 Compact and I just downloaded the rom 14.4.A.0.118 Z1 DE with this thread.

Then, with the same thread pulled 14.4.A.0.118 deodex patch.

Using Flashtoola i flashed rom. Of course not activated.

So I started again Flashtool and i flashed only the kernel but from the rom 108.

Phone launched on the new ROM. With this, the resolution was too large. This of Z1.

I thought to myself, it's nothing. I got this board because I have a special patch on

[Patch] for Z1 stock based ROMs cutom it wor ... | Xperia Z1 Compact | XDA Forum

and later it yourself I flashed and improves the resolution. I have often done that.

I rooted it with the Z1 root.

Then I turned off the phone and ran again in CWM and I flashed Patch Deodex 118

And here sneezes! From that moment bootloop. I suspect that this patch deodex is kicked or I doing something wrong

Maybe someone knows what remedy?
