I posted in stump. We'll see what happens. I was looking at stuff and stump has a lot of really weird permission. Stuff that doesn't show up in settings. Stuff like Facebook and skyfire. It's worrying me a little.
[Sprint LG G3] durandetto:
Not sure if it's normal, supersu seems to be causing a wakelock.
[Sprint LG G3] leszakk:
Hmmm same.....
[Sprint LG G3] Frostbiter:
I have had much better battery life after root with greenify and such, left the phone off the charger at 100% and woke up the next morning with it stil lat 100%. Have you guys rebooted after updating the SuperSU binary? If so I would try uninstalling SuperSU and re installing it and seeing if that helps.
[Sprint LG G3] engine95:
Give this a shot and see if it helps battery.

Go to Settings>Storage, press and hold "cached data" to clear it then reboot.
[Sprint LG G3] durandetto:
Thanks for the help I did both, so we'll see how tomorrow goes and I'll report back.
[Sprint LG G3] engine95:
OP updated with link to Sprint LGFlashtool restore. Huge thanks fergie716!
[Sprint LG G3] durandetto:
So supersu isn't the problem anymore, but Android OS is still high on the list of battery drain. Is Google location a known issue for battery drain on the g3?
[Sprint LG G3] thewind730:
after you run stump your supposed to uninstall it that may be part of the battery issue. I'm rooted and running great no battery life issues at all ?
[Sprint LG G3] matthew0776:
FYI...I installed Viper4Android on G3 ls990 and it's working great and def helps with the crappy stock audio.
[Sprint LG G3] Pdoubleo315:
Please forgive me if I'm out of place but any news on unlocked loader /custom recovery
[Sprint LG G3] R2DeeTard:
They are working on it. That is all we know at this time.
[Sprint LG G3] durandetto:
I forgot the first day but I deleted it and still no change. Uninstalled and reinstalled supersu. Disabled location. Still no change. Before root I was getting 14-18 hours with 5-6 hours of screen on time. Now I barely get 12 hours with less than 4 screen on. I changed nothing but ran the app and added supersu.
[Sprint LG G3] ScrapMaker:
Does this help any of the crackling, popping, hissing, or screeching that are heard over 3.5mm or Bluetooth?

Does anyone happen to know where (I think it was the LG G3 general forums) to find the thread where someone posted about decreasing the resolution on the G3 and getting better battery life? Search isn't bringing anything up O.o
[Sprint LG G3] EFEXR:
What is Viper4Android?
[Sprint LG G3] durandetto:
Audio hack
[Sprint LG G3] matthew0776:
its a audio mod for android

... like DSP manager but better lol

tbh I don't have hissing or cracking on my device with headphone jack...but I didn't apply mod to speakers didn't wanna blow them out ..just to headphone output. And it def improved quality.
[Sprint LG G3] EFEXR:
I hate to ask but where can I get this viper4android mod? Is it an app? Or something where you have to edit the build.prop file?
[Sprint LG G3] matthew0776:
FOR THOSE LOOKING

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2191223

here's the Viper4android thread link..

root is the only thing needed..install apk as a user app...and give it root permissions ...done. Launch app and tweak all u want.

Here's a link to the apk I installed...but please read the thread first...and get apk from there if possible. I'm just supplying a link to make it easier...and in no way am involved with dev on this apk.

http://d-h.st/XKC

I would NOT run this device(with root) without it since the stock audio is crap. I would go as far as to say a MUST with ls990.
[Sprint LG G3] Shadeoblac:
I thought you were supposed to uninstall the the app after you get root. I don't have a G3, been pretty much staking this forum, but maybe that's the battery drain issue?
[Sprint LG G3] Pdoubleo315:
I have it working and this is the best app ever, it makes my skullcandy titans sound like Dr Dre beats, very very pleased with this app.:)
[Sprint LG G3] matthew0776:
yup..lol glad you like it...enjoi
[Sprint LG G3] durandetto:
That didn't make a difference for me. Still getting worse battery life since root. It's not horrible, but I find myself charging my phone in the middle of the day sometimes.
[Sprint LG G3] mkc90:
I know dude me too i have to charge my phone in the middle of the day too. This sucks i will be buying some ANKER batteries as soonest they release them. I think by the end of the month they will have them with an external charger. But hopefully later in the future we can do something to improve battery life. I have concerts to go man i need to record and take a lot of pics lol ?

Here's a how to root video using Stump Root if anyone needs it:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmeER5btwDo
[Sprint LG G3] durandetto:
I'm sure once we get custom roms it Will be much better. Unfortunately who knows how long that will be. Love the phone but it has to be the worst I've ever owned when it comes to development. Almost every phone I've owned was rooted before it was even released and the bootloader was either not locked or easily cracked. Just hoping the devs work their magic before I go back to work and don't have a charger sitting next to me all day.
[Sprint LG G3] mkc90:
Yea they will we just got to wait.

I know they will, they always do.

Just out of curiosity what's everyone's Android OS keep awake time during an average day. Mine is usually 8hrs or more.
[Sprint LG G3] aheeejd:
Hey guys thanks. I just wanted to ask cause nobody else did, but when I go to install viper it says failed due to no busybox, I installed the busybox app through the link provided which takes you to the play store, I haven't ran the app yet as I'm not familiar with the bb app, do I just install it, let it do its thing, also I'm choosing high quality sound, are you guys choosing battery saver, or super.

[Sprint LG G3] solis888:
How do you get this battery life? I am excited when I get 4 hours of screen time. What do you do on your phone (web surfing, playing games, etc.).
[Sprint LG G3] durandetto:
Just web surfing, Facebook and forums. Don't play any games though. I used to get better battery life before root though.
[Sprint LG G3] fgcchevy:
Simple reboot of the phone should fix it.
[Sprint LG G3] samepic:
Working fine for me as well. No issues when updating PRL. Am on PRL 51102, too.
[Sprint LG G3] Gargantuantua:
Odd. I've been trying for the last few days but get network error each time and reboot didn't fix it :-/. I'm on 51101 too. Not sure what else to try.

Edit- just did ##72786# in dialer and it rebooted and updated my prl. It didn't say profile updated though.
[Sprint LG G3] ssmercurys:
As far as Busybox. Just install it as normal.

With Viper4Android I use Super High Quality and it's fantastic. Check out my audio profile for it in my signature it's great for headphones.

Also if you happen to see it stop working randomly you might want to install it as a system app to stop the OS from killing it.
[Sprint LG G3] plmiller0905:

[Sprint LG G3] thznutz87:
G3 tweaksbox has an option to enable the menu button.
[Sprint LG G3] too758:
How do you install as a system app? The OS kills it after about 15 min of playback.

Ps, with Viper4Android, i can say that the audio is better than my old M7. That's the only thing that was missing for me.
[Sprint LG G3] cidica:
umm... Why add a Menu button when the Menu is still there with a long press of the of the recent apps button??
[Sprint LG G3] aheeejd:
Wow, fist of all because I like the 3 dot menu on the right of the navbar, but, I had no idea about the long press being the menu lol. Way cool thanks. I'd still like the 3 dot, & it doesn't work with tweakbox, but we'll see, maybe I'll get used to this. Just got used to a showing menu button, been setting phone up like that for probably 4 years now.

I was used to it as well so I know the feeling. When I noticed this though I got used to it quick. So far it's worked for EVERY app I've needed a menu for (twicca being one of the more used ones) I liked the only menu button as well but I like less clutter *shrug* lol
[Sprint LG G3] ScrapMaker:
I thought the phone popped up a message the first time you hit the recents button, and you had to check a box to dismiss the menu functionality message?
[Sprint LG G3] SilverZero:
He said it depends on the time needed to finalize it. If it's easy, the cost of a cheap bottle of wine, if it's more involved, maybe the cost of a nice box of wine. Seriously, jcase measures everything in wine. :)

As mentioned, this will hopefully be a root and bootloader unlock combo, which would be nice. Although I kinda wonder if we even have any developers here to pick up the game at that point....
[Sprint LG G3] engine95:
We do. Shelnutt2 has unlocked the Optimus G series and he has our phone.

If that's what you meant.
[Sprint LG G3] IM0001:
I keep talking myself out of buying the G3 when I go to order it on SERO. Damn thing always comes out to >$300 on contract so I just look at my still nearly Mint EVO LTE and pull out...

Root+Bootloader would probably push me over the edge, and some custom roms moving toward the sheer number you do get with most HTC devices would solidify my choice though.

I feel that the popularity of the G3, and the sooner the better release of both Root and a Bootloader Unlock, would really bring the Cooks over to start making roms for this thing. One can hope right? Too bad my days of cooking roms for Windows Mobile 6.X devices doesn't really translate over to Android cooking as much as I'd like :D
[Sprint LG G3] engine95:
Let's see...Windows, HTC. Maybe it's time to try something new. :)

[Sprint LG G3] IM0001:
HTC has always made some solid hardware, Sense has finally gotten really good (5+) and the Rom community has been good for pretty much all their devices. LG finally has a phone that really appeals to me, and Samsung still doesn't impress me at all though almost all my friends have gotten pulled into their devices. (heck I even got a S4 as a work phone, :/ TouchWiz sucks. )

My old EVO LTE got a whole new lease on life with the 4.3 update which pretty much fixed everything that was truly bad about the device. (Performance, compatibility issues, memory management, the stupid 2 partition setup that sucked, etc.) So using it is no longer the painful experience it once was, and now that I have LTE a lot more around my area (except for home of course) the phone flat out flies with a good signal.

And being on Sprint, do we really have much for choices? Can't get Nokia, Sony, any of the good off brands like say a One +One, etc.

Hell I was a Windows Phone guy but Sprint refuses to get any of the good high end devices and while my Arrive still works, sadly nobody else though it was as good of a device as I did. (That thing had the best keyboard and was a true workhorse that never let me down.)

[Sprint LG G3] SilverZero:
Email him and tell him to chime in here. If he can prove concept he could collect on a few bucks more. I'll test it.

My gut says he's scamming. I'd never meet a guy in Philly who knows I'm carrying cash and a G3. ☺
[Sprint LG G3] miketoasty:
This just sounds shady, anyone who has the know how to root a device but posts it on Craigslist automatically throws up a red flag to me.
[Sprint LG G3] justinswidebody:
I agree. However it is a way to make money. It's just weird that he specifically mentions the sprint ls990 as being more. More then likely a scam
[Sprint LG G3] SilverZero:
I emailed him. He won't reply, but if he does I'm going to try to get some proof that he knows what he's doing.
[Sprint LG G3] IM0001:
I wouldn't meet him at his house, or at any large public parking lot. Or with my new $600 phone at all for that matter.

Unless you carry a gun, and he can show you root on the device in person inside a Starbucks or something...

It would be hilarious if that was jcase in real life's ad
[Sprint LG G3] SilverZero:
Nah, jcase is in Washington state and his true identity isn't exactly a secret. Philly Phil emailed me back, played the old tune about how he doesn't want to just give his work away for free so he charges in person on a per-device basis. I'm curious to know if he really has a Sprint root, but my guess is he's just reselling towelroot or IO for the other variants (while telling me how awful it is to profit off the work of others).

Anyway, good luck to him finding enough people locally that even know and care what root is and will pay that much for it. He can sell it for a couple of weeks until a legitimate method is released by the known devs, even paid. For $50 I'd expect an unlocked bootloader and a ride home.
[Sprint LG G3] IM0001:
Finally got the G3 Ordered. Now I have to decide when to activate it as my EVO LTE finally found a 4G spot in my place I can tether off of. (Any LTE speed is better than my 1.5Mbit DSL, which is also down at the moment. :/ ) The sooner the G3 gets Root and Tether the better.
[Sprint LG G3] ssmercurys:
Use a file explorer with root permissions to move it from /data/app to /system/app rw-r--r-- permissions. (same as rest in that folder)

Reboot after or just uninstall it as a user app first and download the apk manually and place it in /system/app and reboot.

Thank you so much for helping out. Unfortunately, I have I tried exactly what you said and still could not get that setting to work.

How about fonts, has anyone changed their fonts with say, rom toolbox pro. Or is that the type of change that could affect build prop & trigger a boot loop, & force to have to use flashtool. Just curious. I think some Sony sketch would look pretty sweet on here.

Sent from my LGLS990 using Xparent Green Tapatalk 2
[Sprint LG G3] Will32:
Just my opinion... Don't change the font with anything other than the built in font changer found in settings>display>font type.

ROM toolbox pro put my evo3d in a bootloop a long time ago. Wasn't really a problem on that phone since I had a custom recovery but it would be a nightmare on the g3 with no recovery.

3rd party font changing apps might work fine but to me its just not worth the risk when we can change it through settings.

Hey peeps, my screen gets extremely for when my data is enabled, I believe it May be because of apps running in my background, but I'm not sure, any ideas how I can find out what's causing this? Sometimes the phone is just idle in my pocket, other times it's when I brighten the screen, and others when I'm listening to Pandora
[Sprint LG G3] ScrapMaker:
This phone is not efficient. The screen is a major energy drain and does make the phone very hot. Extended use even at low brightness settings can cause it to overheat and shut down.
[Sprint LG G3] Pdoubleo315:
thanks but when I have data off it doesn't really get hot when the brightness is low and when phone is idle in my pocket (with data enabled), out of no where it will start getting hot

I noticed battery life drop a little after rooting but not any overheating. I would check wakelocks. Its possible that the phone is defective though. If you're on Sprint Its worth a shot to take it in and see if they'll replace it under manufactures warranty. They're usually pretty good about it.
