[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] partylikeaninjastar:
Stock Android is plain and devoid of features. That's why we all root and ROM our Nexus phones. Latest versions of Android are overrated when ROMs or skinned phones offer more out of the box.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigkevbosky:
You sell your G3 for $550, you buy a Nexus 5 for $300, you now have the cleanest version of Android and an extra $250 in your pocket.

You're welcome.

Lol 550. I paid 570 New for my g3 from att. I don't see anybody getting 550 for it used

Your G3 is worth less because AT&T sucks. That's why.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeoRex:
And stock Android (or at least the Nexus version of Android) is still, by far, the best version available. Why do Nexus owners modify it? Because they CAN.... and it gives them an excellent framework on which to do so. Most everything you can do on ANY of these ROMs, you can find something that can approximate the same feature.... so you can pick and choose what you want. The UI isn't cluttered, screens aren't unnecessarily crowded. I had a Nexus 5 before I got my G3 and I can say, without hesitation, that I would replace the G3's stock ROM with AOSP the instant a fully functional one became available. When I first got my G3, I spent the better part of the first days of owning it doing my best to strip away the OEM stuff on there and 'Nex-ify' it.... Ideally, I'd have an AOSP-based ROM to work off rather than work around LG's stuff.

In fact, I'm going to try to build one for myself... I downloaded LG's D851 source code earlier to day actually (thank you LG for releasing the system and kernel sources). I'm not expecting this to be an easy task, not in the least... but the ONLY shortcoming that I can see in this phone is the software loaded on it, so if I can work around that, I'll be quite pleased.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] partylikeaninjastar:
Nexus owners modify their phones because stock Android leaves so much to be desired and it add functionality that mind blowingly isn't in stock — a fine example being quick settings that are actually quick (and customizable) and something as simple as showing the battery percent in the status bar.

And how do you figure that the UI is cluttered on the G3? How exactly is that so? The screens aren't necessarily crowded in the least bit. Visually, the Nexus 5 and G3 don't differ much outside of the default launcher (that most people change anyway regardless of which phone they're on) and the settings menu. I'd argue that the G3 presents the settings better since you can quickly jump to what you want thanks to them being tabbed. Aside from those, the differences are negligible because you'd only find yourself in apps beyond that. I'm not going to get my panties in a bunch of "bloat" that is easy to remove or otherwise easy to ignore.

There is literally nothing obtrusive about LG's UI here. People are just Nexus/Google obsessed. That is my opinion after owning a Nexus 4 and still owning a Nexus 5 and 7. I don't need to "Nexify" my phone because there is literally nothing that a Nexus has over the G3 except for being a download away from the Google camera and its ability to take photosphere photos.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 903tex:
That's the dumbest thing I ever heard! Its called common sense. Why pay 550 when you can get one New for couple bucks more?

You can price what you want doesn't mean your going to get that price lol!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeoRex:
The notification panel, like in touchwiz, is a hot mess. HTC, to their credit, left things be and themed the notification and quick settings panels, rather than smashing them into one. I hated that about touchwiz and I hate it here... thankfully, I was able to toss the worst with tweakbox.

The rest of the layout isn't horrible... just laid out awkwardly. Between tweakbox and the Now Launcher, things are pretty good now. I just prefer AOSP, visually. If you're fine with it, that's cool.

By the way, the Google camera, and photosphere, work on the G3.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigkevbosky:
How is that dumb? If he has the T-Mo version, he can sell it for more. Look at the link I provided. T-Mo's versions are selling for $550. So my original statement that he could sell it for $550 and have $250 left after buying a Nexus 5 is correct.

I didn't check AT&T prices because I did away with that worthless company last year. Still, even if he has an AT&T version, he can sell it for $450 and have $150 left in his pocket. My original point is valid either way.

Why the hell are you arguing with me about this? Is it just to be able to have an argument on the internet?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 903tex:
Lol I'm not arguing with you. I just know nobody gonna pay that much for a used g3 when you can get one New for a couple of bucks more.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] partylikeaninjastar:
The notification panel is only as cluttered as the user makes it as any toggle in it is optional. A single line of icons with your most commonly used toggles first is not cluttered. I don't even need to scroll past the first five icons in my notification panel and I don't need the sliders either (though they do help if you want your notifications to start off lower to make them easier to select one handed). The stock Quick Settings are even more cluttered (a separate page of huge icons on a grid), so the Android L design will be a welcome and more useful refresh of the idea.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshnichols189:
GPE ROMs have plenty of OEM features in them.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeoRex:
Not what I see.... a line of icons, a brightness slider, a volume slider, a big header that says 'Notifications' (duh), THEN my notifications. I want to see my notifications, not a remote control mini window... I had to use tweakbox to get rid of them.

So be it.... I just prefer the dual panels.

But hey, the rest of the phone's software is growing on me. Call it 'adjusting'.... :)

---------- Post added at 09:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:05 PM ----------

L used the same approach as KitKat with dual panels... different visual look, but still dual panels.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] partylikeaninjastar:
Like I said, the notification panel is only as cluttered as the user makes it. All I have a single like of icons with no unnecessary sliders.

And L is only one panel, not dual panels. The settings are above the notifications. They're just not shown until you pull them down. Also, on the G3, when I have a bunch of notifications, my settings aren't shown first when I pull down the tray. It shows my notifications first.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkschnitzel:
Hello, today I tried to flash a custom rom on my Xperia Z. I only had 23% of Battery.

I wiped all and tried to flash it after that i pressed on reboot, the screen went black and nothing happend.

When I hold the power button for a few seconds the phone vibrates but no LED turns on.

Its not possible to come into recovery menu.

After I pressed Power and another button for a few seconds it vibrated very fastly for a few times. When I connect my phone to the PC it starts bliunking red, but PC Companion cant recognize it and flashtool too.

Please help Me :(
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] St.Jimmy90:
Does it charge? Maybe the Batter is too low. Try to charge it for a few hours and try to connect it to the pc again. If it won't charge normally try the rubber band method
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkschnitzel:
Thanks for yor reply :)

It's charging now for an hour or more but the LED is still not red :(

Whats the rubber band method?

Edit: The LED blinks red
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] St.Jimmy90:
The rubber band method is to put a rubber band across your phone which constantely presses power and vol up.

The fact that the LED blinks is good, it should turn into a solid light
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkschnitzel:
Thank you :) I hope that it will work tomorrow if it works i can use fastboot to flash my stock firmware.

I will charge it over the night (I live in Germany)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkschnitzel:
Ok now I waited 4 hours, it still blinks so i used the rubber bannds. Now the light is solid then the phone vibrates 3 times, the light disappears and then the LED turns on again. It keeps going like this. Is it usual?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkschnitzel:
Hey I got the device into fastbot mode, but the bootloader is locked :(

What should i do now?

I can unlock the bootloader and flash the stock firmware right?

I think I have to enter this: fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xKEY with my KEY right?

But how do I flash the stock firmware then?

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] mandostoak:
I need to do something that require root permission (eg. access the files in /data/data), but I don't want to root my phone. Is it possible to do so? Please advise, thank you so much.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Mad Marty:
No. The only way to do this is to root, and unroot when you're done.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
Using Towelroot it should be easy for you. Afterwards Supsersu can completely unroot your device again.

I suggest manufacturers implement something like a semi-rooting or a temporary rooting.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] arturiu:
As peter-k says, use Towelroot and then use SuperSU to unroot again.

Check this thread to root your V .
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] mandostoak:
wow, thanks, you guys are really helpful!

First I have tried to Google "semi-root". Although no luck, at least I have learnt a new keyword "semi-root".

Then I have tried TowelRoot, and it is really fantastic! I pressed on the button of the App, and the file manager app I used to use immediately has access to the /data/data directory, without ever a reboot! After I done with /data/data, I installed SuperSu from market, than press "Unroot". The root access gone, also without ever a reboot! I think I will keep these app on my phone, so that I can gain root access at anytime I needed.

And, thank you for your help, hope you guy have a good day.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

$pathtousbdev with a browse function

$storage with function to enter a number in MB

And of course a button function to start writing

[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] spiderflash:
It would be really cool if there was a way to do these things with apps or any other way. I just collected a few which I think of as most important.

Keep screen awake in chosen apps (eg fitness, maps, notes, ...)

End calls using the watch and change speaker mode while in a call

Lock mode for showering

Disable the wake up gesture (wrist movement) without disabling notifications

Choose not to go back to home screen when the display times out

Remove notifications from the watch face so you can finally use analogue ones (the notifications will only show when you swipe down or get a new notification from certain apps --> eg sms will still show when you get one, but weather etc won't)

I linked the threads / posts of the people who posted the idea first. This thread is just to collect them ;)

Edit:

Ok so number 1 - 3 can be done with:

N1 - Swipify

N2 - Dialer for Android Wear or Speed Dial for Android Wear

N3 - Wear My Launcher

Let me start by saying i HATE using a case. I would never consider an Otterbox before due to the thickness, This case seems to be slim. Anyone have experience with it?
[G3 Accessories] ChrisTahoe:
I have had the Symmetry case for a week or so now. I like it. I picked up a Spigen Slim Armor too. The Spigen is a bit slimmer, but the white color I picked stained quickly at work (I'm a mechanic). The Symmetry is a good bit thinner than the older Commuter cases. I'd say it's like an Urban Armor Gear case but without the extra corner protection and added thickness from the design in the plastic on the rear.

The Spigen Slim armor will give you nearly identical protection while being a tad thinner, just stay away from white. With that said, I really like the Symmetry series. It'll be on my G3 for a long while. Wireless charging still works flawlessly.
[G3 Accessories] EVOme:
Thanks! I just ordered the Spigen in blue
[G3 Accessories] Pilz:
The blue one is the best. I've sadly dropped my g3 a couple of times and it's perfectly fine, the case however, has some scratches and nicks, but its definitely built to protect while being fairly slim. As you can see in my picture the color is awesome and really looks good in the light.
[G3 Accessories] VolanteDB9:
I bought the Symmetry case for the HTC One M8 and loved it. Am now waiting for Symmetry case for G3.
[G3 Accessories] bigkevbosky:
Just got this case for a great price from Amazon. I had a Body Glove case, which is nice, but I wanted a bit more protection and wanted a case that fit tighter to the phone. The Otterbox is perfect - REALLY tight, no loose sides or top or bottom, so it feels like a tank once it's on. It's a little tough to get off, but that's no big deal. I can also confirm it works fine for wireless charging.

I think this is the case I'll be keeping my G3 in until I get a new phone next year.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] :
Best place for this is LS thread were you will get more exposure. I read your posts there.

You can do the basics over, then try another rom as maybe something in the newer nightlies aren't playing well with your particular phone. Could be something on your internal card.

My basics would be:

ReDownload rom and gapps checking the md5's before flashing--

Wipe all 3x times. That would be System/Data/Both Caches, thru recovery--I use TWRP 2.5.0.2--never an issue. There is a flashable zip for it. Just wipes, no formats, factory resets etc.

If all else fails try reformatting your internal--back up first

Or try another rom for awhile--

Good Luck :)

You're going to have to unlock your bootloader again unless you already have twrp installed. Flash the kitkat twrp recovery, then you can restore the telus 4.4.2 twrp backup in my sig or flash the insertcoin rom.
