Thats funny I feel the same way regarding being the fence with this phone I have until thursday to return it. The camera is cool and there are a few other things I like but also my previous phone (M8) has left me wanting to return to it as well....
[T-Mobile LG G3] sithdroid2187:
I am making the switch this weekend. I am looking forward to it too. I was at my local T-Mo store testing things out and the rep behind the counter was showing me things he had setup on his. I really like the features on this phone. Saturday cannot get here soon enough!
[T-Mobile LG G3] bigkevbosky:
I still don't get why anyone would go back to the N5 after having this phone. You can easily get almost a completely stock experience on the G3. Get the Google Now launcher, sideload the dialer, install Hangouts and Chrome and Google Camera, and replace the lock screen with an AOSP style one. There, now you have an N5 again, only with a better screen, removable battery, and expandable storage.
[T-Mobile LG G3] dspcap:
For me, it's the size of the phone. I am having a hard time getting used to it.
[T-Mobile LG G3] cvsolidx17:
As much as I enjoy my G3, in it's current state it is nowhere near as fluid as the N5 despite the things you listed. Odds of this dev community being as active as the N5's are slim to none. Releases for big name custom roms are probably far far off. I understand that the G3 isn't a developers phone, but when comparing it to one like the N5, the advantage of having a strong development community can't be denied. And then we come to updates. I wonder, if devs don't crack the G3, how long do you think it will be until we get Android L??? I'm shooting for several months after it releases this November. Despite the fact that they have more than capable hardware, LG has been known to drag their feet with updates. The Nexus will always have this advantage.

When looking at it from a specs point of view, I'd say that it is absolutely no contest. However in real world use? The N5 holds it's own in every category save for the screen and the battery life (and not by much in this department), and even bests the G3 in terms of performance. Some people prefer sd cards, others prefer cloud storage, but kudos to LG for offering the option anyways. If Google comes correct with the Nexus 6, the G3 could fall far behind. Even so, I still wouldn't say deciding between the G3 and N5 is a no brainer.
[T-Mobile LG G3] bigkevbosky:
You're right, I suppose. Although one quickly realizes that even though there are 8 septillion roms for the N5, they're all pretty much the exact same. And once you install Xposed you can quickly do most of the modifications to the stock LG rom that you can to any N5 rom. The differences are neglegable. In fact, most of the "features" people add to N5 custom roms are already baked into the LG rom (non intrusive incoming call, quick reply text message, customizable recents panel, hovering apps, split screen, etc).

The N5 is a GREAT phone, I had it for 6 months and enjoyed it very much, but if someone really values fast updates and as many roms as they can possibly flash, they should keep the N5 and should never even consider switching to the G3. You can't be a pure stock Android superfan and then switch to the G3 and complain it isn't like stock and it won't get fast updates. You can't have it both ways, yknow? People should know these things before they buy a $600 phone.
[T-Mobile LG G3] cvsolidx17:
I agree for the most part. The thing is, other manufacturers who offer $600+ flagship phones get their updates out faster than LG does. I understand that I cant hold LG to the same standard as Google when it comes to updates, but a comparison with HTC, Samsung and Sony is a fair one. LG lags behind all of them when it comes to updates. IMO a $600 device should come with the guarantee of speedy updates but hey that's just me. The lack of optimization on LGs end is what has had me and many others anxious for an update. And for good reason.

A solid development community would negate many of my criticisms so I'm sticking with it until we get some growth here. I have been tempted to go back to my Nexus though lol
[T-Mobile LG G3] bigkevbosky:
Yeah, I'm actually surprised there hasn't been more development on the Tmo G3, at least, since it has the unlocked bootloader and has custom recovery available already. But I'm also not too worried about it considering it's only a couple months old.
[T-Mobile LG G3] cvsolidx17:
Yeah its only a matter of time. Even if its only CM that we get, Im itching to see how AOSP runs on this thing lol
[T-Mobile LG G3] dspcap:
I want to so badly like this phone. It's almost perfect. If only I could get used to the size. I like to be able to use phones with one hand and I can't reach my thumb across it. I also can't get the keyboard to work one handed.
[T-Mobile LG G3] sithdroid2187:
Made the switch and I am glad I did. I am loving this phone so far!
[T-Mobile LG G3] qbanlinxx:
I also made the switch, but the N5 is hands down much smoother in every aspect. If I could combine the speaker and screen size with the N5, I don't think I would ever need another phone
[T-Mobile LG G3] dspcap:
Over the past couple weeks, I have had the N5, G3, and HTC One M8. They all have their positive and negatives, but I think overall, the M8 is the best of the three phones. Just my opinion.
[T-Mobile LG G3] kingston73:
What do you like more about the m8? And is it rooted or stock?
[T-Mobile LG G3] meccax5:
Went from nexus 5 to lg g3. Couldn't stand it. After one week, I returned it and got the M8. Couldn't be happier.
[T-Mobile LG G3] gotzaDroid:
What helped a lot for me was to root my G3 and get rid of bloat and change kernels. Now my G3 is every bit as smooth as my nexus 5 was.
[T-Mobile LG G3] aaronrw:
Ive had the g flex.....m7....n5 and now the g3. G3 wins with g flex right behind. Slow development at first but it'll be worth it.
[T-Mobile LG G3] alhadee12:
What stands out to you regarding the M8?
[T-Mobile LG G3] qbanlinxx:
Having both the N5 and G3,anyone who says that the G3 is just as fast and smooth as the N5,doesn't have the slightest idea what there talking about. I'm not talking about benchmarks, I'm talking about side by side real world testing.....
[T-Mobile LG G3] justibasa:
My G3 is on its way now. I've loved my n5, but also had tons of problems with it. Glad to be rid of the nexus and looking forward to the journey with the g3.
[T-Mobile LG G3] kingston73:
Just curious what issues did you have with the nexus?
[T-Mobile LG G3] qbanlinxx:
What kind of issues were you having? Besides the speaker, I got lucky to not have any issues or complaints
[T-Mobile LG G3] dspcap:
The build quality of the phone, how it feels in your hand, how smooth it is flowing through screens and apps, battery life, screen resolution, sound quality of the speakers and sound quality through my Bose noise canceling headphones. The only thing I preferred on the G3 was the camera.

Specs may say the G3 is better in more ways (including screen resolution), but using both for a while, the M8 just feels better overall. Now that being said, all the guys selling the phones in the Tmobile store owned M8's and all of them wanted to upgrade to the G3. :)

The only thing I miss about my N5 is Android L and google dialer. I put the google dialer on the M8, but it's just not the same.
[T-Mobile LG G3] hashcheck:
I did but kept nexus 5 to play with
[T-Mobile LG G3] LeoRex:
I'd have to say that the G3 solved my only real issues with the Nexus 5:

Battery - the 5's battery is just on the small side, and I used some custom kernel functions, like dt2w that didn't help matters. I've noticed a significant improvement with the much larger G3.

Camera... The nexus 5 takes good pics and video, but I always fought with how quickly and accurately it focused. I have quite a few shots that are useless and a number of blurry videos. The G3 is a focusing demon due to the laser autofocus... Its no joke. That alone makes the camera vastly superior.

Yes, the Nexus is smoother and more fluid, but the G3 isn't all that far off (at least mine isn't) and more than makes up for it with the other functions that it excels at.

I worried that I'd get a healthy dose of buyer's remorse after switching, but a month later, I have zero regrets and no desire to switch back... The G3 is an awesome device.
[T-Mobile LG G3] dspcap:
I thought the N5's camera was horrible, never took a decent picture :)
[T-Mobile LG G3] LeoRex:
That was one of those falsehoods that became true because with enough people said it. It took plenty of nice shots... The autofocus just drove me nuts at times. Not always, just enough to be a pain.
[T-Mobile LG G3] dspcap:
Um no, I personally always felt it took bad pictures. I went to Alaska, Disney, and many other amazing places....the pictures it took were horrible.

I don't appreciate what you are insinuating.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Mike_77:
Actually the camera is the main factor that made me upgrade from the Nexus 5 to a G3. I was tired of depositing checks with my banking app just to have the deposit declined due to image quality. My wife's S4 always worked, and my G3 has worked every time I've tried it.. to me it's just proof the N5 camera is not up to standards.
[T-Mobile LG G3] qbanlinxx:
Check out the Trinity Kernel Thread in the N5, or even check out the N5 picture thread. Amazing pictures can and have been taken with the N5.
[T-Mobile LG G3] LeoRex:
So we disagree, that's fine. But I'm not alone.. There are many people that get quality shots. It's not the best camera in the world and it has its share of issues. But it is just not a bad as it's made out to be. What exactly was I insinuating?
[T-Mobile LG G3] dspcap:
That is so funny, I had to use my wife's iPhone to take pictures of our checks because of the same issue with the N5. I started a thread on this and found dozens of people with the same issue.
[T-Mobile LG G3] dspcap:
You are basically saying that I "believed" that the camera was bad because enough people were saying it. That I couldn't make up my own mind and I was just saying what everyone else was. Very insulting sir.

Your statement: "That was one of those falsehoods that became true because with enough people said it. It took plenty of nice shots."
[T-Mobile LG G3] LeoRex:
I wasn't referring to you.

I was saying that a lot of people say the Nexus 5's camera was bad solely because they read that it was bad and just perpetuate it without ever picking the phone up.

You had a bad experience, but just because you had one doesn't mean others have the same issues. Like I said, when I didn't have to deal with focusing problems (which wasn't all the time), I got some really nice shots. So I'll certainly disagree that it has a bad camera, it just has done issues keeping it from being a very good one.

That being said, the G3's camera is substantially better and high on my list of reasons why I'm glad I switched.
[T-Mobile LG G3] justibasa:
"What kind of issues were you having? Besides the speaker, I got lucky to not have any issues or complaint."

The speaker and microphone stopped working on both n5's that I had. Got tired of it.
[T-Mobile LG G3] gotzaDroid:
You're right, stock for stock. But once I rooted my G3, removed all the carrierIQ, LG logging stuff and swapped kernels, this is just as fast if not faster than my N5 running CM11 and elementalX kernel in my other hand.
[T-Mobile LG G3] qbanlinxx:
I've done all the same to my G3,running Sky dragon rom, and my n5 running Rastakat with Elementalx, underclocked to 1.7 is smoother in every aspect. My g3 even lags in Gsam when I'm checking it for wake locks..
[T-Mobile LG G3] gotzaDroid:
Don't know what to tell ya then, either I have a better working G3 than you or a worse operating N5 than you. ?

I have no lag anywhere on this phone, everything is fast and smooth. That's not to say I had lag on the N5, well, the notification pull down was laggy, but that may have been the themed settings.

Either way, I am much more happy with this G3 than my N5 (it'll still stick around as a backup).

[HTC One Mini] Jonog:
Hi there, long time reader, possibly posted before but I cant remember my account name so I suppose I am a newbie.

1) Unlocked boot loader fine

2) Installed TWRP fine

3) Rooted fine

4) Installed CM11 and Gaaps

5) Restored all my apps from Titanium

Yaaaay ready to rock or so I thought. Only to be faced with "mobile network not available" so my intention was to flash another CM11 or other CM if it was possible to get it actually working to make phone calls. In my attempts to do this I cleared everything, so no OS. I can get into the bootloader and recovery mode still but that

ADB thing refuses to work. So as of now my PC cannot see the device to copy the rom files onto it.

Am I right in thinking if I get a USB OTG and put a rom on it, I can flash it from there??

I would settle for any custom rom at this stage that functions and doesnt have bloatware.

Failing that, would it be allowed here to ask for an image of a working htc one mini m4 to be uploaded somewhere that I can work with?

I wont be able to do anything until i get the USB OTG. Ive tried everything with ADB.

Your help would be so much appreciated.
[HTC One Mini] shivasrage:
hi,..

So first I´m not quite sure if an otg will work but it´s really worth to try it...

But after a (maybee) sucsessful flashing of a ROM via OTG there is no way around to get adb and fastboot to work.

Next I have to say is you should post some information about your phone.

h-boot Version

OS version

CID-Number if you know.

Only with this information sombody here can help you to find the right ROM.zip for flash trough recovery.

(if the firmware and the ROM do not match you are running in to multiple issues)

[HTC One Mini] Jonog:
Thank you

[HTC One Mini] shivasrage:
So,.....

It would be very interessting what firmware was on your device..

But as we can see the bootloader shows "OS- " so I suppose with h-boot 2.21.0000 it was 3.10.xxx.x.

I ran in same Problem a few weeks ago.

Recovery write: Can´t mount sd card and can´t mount data

I formated data in TWRP-recovery....(formated not only wipe...deletes everything on device).

As far as I remember after that adb returns to work and I sideloaded a new system.

I recommend you to flash first a stock or stock "near" system then and try to get s-off (to get rid of your problems)

But your first goal is to get a working OS on your device and get adb to work

A little help could be:

In fastboot mode :

"fastboot erase cache"

then reflash TWRP 2.7.1.1 with "fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img"

If this don´t work out the only way is USB-OTG cable.

greets

edit: honestly I think the CM11 thing is a story after getting device back to life...

an other question ....what do you get if you type in adb when device is in recovery mode: "adb devices"

If needed here you can find a working sense 5.5 rooted stock rom (should work with your frimware) to start with:

http://androidfiles.org/getdownload...Jmz_M4_StockRooted_KK_Odex_WWE_3.10.631.5.zip

could help also:

[HTC One Mini] Jonog:
Thanks. adb devices will sometimes show the serial number I think, adb push CMupdate.zip I get "cannot read cmupdate.zip"

Fastboot flash recoery recovery.img works.

I have ordered a USB OTG so hopefully by friday I will have it. Im not sure how to show you the firmware? I thought I listed everything needed?
[HTC One Mini] shivasrage:
No, its not your fault...:)

Normaly firmware ist listed in bootloader under OS-3.10.401.3 (for example).

But sometimes after a bad flash when the partitions are messed up or so OS dissapears from bootloader like we can see in your case.

I know from HTC ONE M_7 that there are also some releases of TWRP-recovery that make dissapear OS-Numer from bootloader

but I don´t know if this is similar to the HTC One Mini.

If you get a a serial nuber from adb in recovery mode.. adb should work.....

Do you know how to sideload a ROM via adb and have you allready tried it?

greets
[HTC One Mini] Jonog:
Yes side load does not work.
[HTC One Mini] Jonog:
I have a serious headache now. I tried so many roms and none of them let me make or recieve calls. The 3g mobile data is working. Would this work if the IMEI was blocked?

I also tried to update the firmware and ran into problems error 155 and error 132. I am really close to giving up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Boogeyman45:
I've had this problem sometime after Kitkat. When on a phone call, the phone will reboot randomly. Not everytime I use the phone. I've been suggested that it might be my sd card but I've ruled it out. I'm currently running nc5 stock 4.4. I've had xposed framework uninstalled to try to narrow this irritating problem. I've tried to switch roms, install them clean, install everything fresh and clean with no change. I've also had my Note 3 replaced because I thought this particular problem was hardware failure. Obviously that is not the case. I searched for an answer without success. It's very possible that I've missed something in the forums. I'll own that. I'm reaching out for help. If anyone has any suggestions I would really appreciate it. Thank you for your time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jimzweb1:
I see from your post your back to a clean stock NC5, so that rules the OS out. You replaced the device, that rules out the hardware. What about the battery, are you running the battery from the first phone? Or are you running and extended battery? A short in the battery maybe? How long where on the call? Did the phone get hot and kick the high temp on device? I noticed several posts of phones shutting down from heat, it is a hot summer. The only other thing I can think of is the cell tower dropped the call, and for some reason the phone rebooted. Can you think of anything else?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Boogeyman45:
I didn't consider the battery(original battery) . I haven't had any power problems yet. But that is a possibility. My calls could go on for 20 mins before it would reboot, then sometimes 10 mins. It really varies. The phone's temp would be normal I believe but I'll keep an eye on it. I did think about the reception being very low at my home and that being the cause, but it also has happened at work where I have a full signal. A battery replacement is a good idea, thank you. I will look into it. Any other suggestions will be appreciated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] JimSmith94:
It could also be loose or dirty battery connections too, so check those too.

Hi.

My touchscreen is broken, so I have to replace it.

I am looking for a genuine part to buy through ebay or similar. I have seen a lot of sellers claiming to sell a genuine part, but since I heard about many cases of the so-called "genuine" screen that turn out to be a good quality fake, I am looking for feedback from people who have bought a screen and received a good item.

My only limitation is that I need to buy from a seller who can ship internationally - I am from Israel.

[Motorola Atrix HD] caan_flakes:
I couple months ago i got my Atrix HD rooted and the guy said all i have to do now is download the roms and flash them. He gave me the procedure which i follow to the neck and it has worked. Now the problem i have is that im trying to upgrade from 4.2.2 to 4.4 (kitkat) but all the custom ROMS fail, i tried the same with a PAC 4.3 rom which worked partially as the apps kept malfunctioning ("blame tyler XYZ has stopped working"). Is it because im using CWM instead of TWRP and if not someone please tell me what am i missing. i really want a stable 4.4 ROM :crying:
[Motorola Atrix HD] Dr. Orange:
Which ROM are you trying to flash? You might be flashing the nightlies after 06/30. After that date, cyanogenmod and others started using the KitKat bootloader for the unified msm8690 builds, the processor architecture that a lot of moto phones share. Unfortunately, the atrix HD hasn't been officially upgraded to KitKat yet from Motorola. Our atrix HD uses the jelly bean bootloader.

So since 6/30, when they switched to the KitKat bootloader, we haven't been able to flash nightlies (with exceptions in AOSB and some CM and CarbonROM builds).

Try flashing a KitKat rom built before 6/30, then get back to us. It should work if you're using cwm, since I'm using cwm 6.0.4.4 and it works fine.

If you flashed the latest cwm that could cause problems too, since I read its also running off the KitKat bootloader.
[Motorola Atrix HD] caan_flakes:
i've tried (cm-11-20140218-NIGHTLY-mb886, pac_moto_msm8960-nightly-20140519 &Gummy-M2.2-06-15-14-NIGHTLY-moto_msm8960) none have worked but im going to try (aokp_moto_msm8960_kitkat_unofficial_2014-04-24.zip) hopefully it works
[Motorola Atrix HD] audit13:
CWM works well on the Atrix HD so I would stick with that.

Why not start over by flashing back to stock ATT 4.1.1, take the OTA update, flash CWM in fastboot, and flash a custom KK ROM?
[Motorola Atrix HD] Dr. Orange:
Not a bad idea. Takes time but not much. Try team gummy for 4.4.2 ROM here, make sure you download the M2.0 release, because the M3.0 is KitKat bootloader. Its my daily driver cuz it's light and has pie controls. http://androidhosting.org/Devs/Gummy/moto_msm8960/RELEASE/

never thought of this...will do :good:
[Motorola Atrix HD] quasihellfish:
FYI, as of a few days ago, CyanogenMod started officially supporting devices still on the JB bootloader (which includes the Atrix HD). See here: https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=moto_msm8960_jbbl

It's what I'm running, and it's great.

Also, if you're having trouble flashing, try using Philz recovery version 6.43.8 (not any later versions). Not sure if CWM supports some of these ROMs or not.
[Motorola Atrix HD] audit13:
Isn't Philz Touch based off CWM?
[Motorola Atrix HD] quasihellfish:
Yes, but I was just trying to say that I know that version of Philz is up to date, and works with KitKat roms. Not sure what version of CWM you were using, or where the support falls. Just a suggestion if you were having issues.
[Motorola Atrix HD] audit13:
I am using the 6.0.4.4 version directly from the Clockworkmod website. I have been using it to flash the latest ROMs with no issues at all. Backup, restore, formatting, etc. work fine in the non-Philz version.

I must admit that Philz is convenient because it automates a lot of functions.
