[G3 General] :
Lag, lag lag...All these posts about lag. As a former Nexus 5 owner, these lag complaints are what infuriate me. Change your animations to .5, switch to ART. Install nova or another 3rd party launcher. Personally, I have the 3/32 on Sprint and I don't see the lag. Again, I'm coming from N5 so you'd think I'd notice, right? Well, I don't. I switched to nova for about a week and then I switched back to stock. With animations at .5, I think stock is just as fast. Seriously people, if the phone disgusts you that much, return it. There are plenty of others, like me, even professional phone reviewers, who think this is currently the best android device available. Also, I know you're all entitled to your opinions as am I, not trying to start a flame war here. :end rant:
[G3 General] IamPro:
What lag?
[G3 General] dondavis007:
I have an OPO, a N5 and the G3 in front of me. Compared, the LG is lagging pretty bad sometimes. Could be a difference between phones or different people, who knows :) it's not as bad as the S5 before a couple of updates, but I sold that one quick on the other hand.
[G3 General] helikido:
Yeah i under stand now. Thank you i get it.

You are so irratating! All of the people who are posting about lag or so damn irratating! A core i7 lags, snapdragon 801 will lag, 805 will too and i bet even the 808 and 810 will too when they come out!

People dont seem to understand that small little stutters and lag is normal for a phone running on a stock OS. The galaxy s5 is just as bad if not worse.

If you dont want lag, go ahead and sell it and buy a stripped down Nexus 5. Its annoying how people cry about micro stutters.

Micro lag that isn't even that noticble.
[G3 General] helikido:
I bet anything that battery is fake for the price. Wouldn't trust it especially since its not branded.
[G3 General] Batfink33:
Sorry but the lag and stutter is bad. You may find it acceptable but a lot of people don't. The phone is running the same SOC as the latest 1080 flagships so the performance on a QHD display just isn't as fluid as its having to work harder to produce the extra pixels and its very noticeable.
[G3 General] Joao Oliveira:
I see not lag whatsoever, unless i have haptic feedback turned on for action buttons (which I personally hate.)
[G3 General] SomeGuyDude:
Lag free here as well.

As for the battery, dang, you'd almost think that maybe that was the biggest they could squeeze into the device without adding significant bulk or something. Weird.

What cracks me up is that literally when any phone comes out people say it's laggier and has worse battery life than the last one they had. To hear people on here talk, all of our Motorola Droids must have gotten 30 hours of screen on time and nowadays the battery dies before the boot animation finishes.
[G3 General] CheesyNutz:

[G3 General] jimmydigital00:
The most annoying thread ever!!!!

Created by the biggest whiner. Please delete this nonsense.

If you don't like the phone either mod it or return it. Keep the cry baby act to yourself
[G3 General] helikido:
How am I whining? I made a logical statement and thankful one member explained to me that soldered battteries have more capacity. This thread is done now since i know why lg did not choose the route i thought best. Let it die will ya?
[G3 General] saveferris:
Its not a micro stuttter.....a micro stutter is in the HTC One M7....the LG G3 Lags.

I have both in front of me...it is noticeable, really noticeable.

Your dimwit response in regards to hardware has noting to do with it.....its the software I'm aggrieved with, it doesn't matter how good your hardware is if the software is not optimised.
[G3 General] flaring afro:
Maybe if people bought phones for battery life instead of how insanely high the ppi was then LG would have devoted their money into battery research and manufacturing instead of a 2k screen. They have to keep the phone at its price range somehow.
[G3 General] helikido:
I can't believe how simple you are. LG purposely reduces the frame rates to 30 when the screen does not need it thus giving you a laggy perception. Why do they do that? To save battery that the qhd screen draws. Its both hardware and software and now please stop crying about lag.
[G3 General] jasvncnt1:
I actually find the battery to be amazing. I get 3 full days with around 4 or so hours of SOT
[G3 General] gotzaDroid:
I also came from a N5 to the G3 and had the same result as you with ART and nova. It did help that I rooted and got rid of all that carrier bloat constantly running also. I am very pleased with this device as a N4, N5 and N7 owner.
[G3 General] thegrants82:
Nice rant?
[G3 General] cnn888:
Y r we even having this discussiob, if u think samsung is better or g3 sucks, get samsung or whatevet it is u think is better. Problem solved!
[G3 General] helikido:
Not a rant, logical statement [emoji57]

I love the g3. And now i understand why it couldnt be what i thought it would be.
[G3 General] whoppe862005:
I consider 6 hours of SOT pretty good within a days charge.
[G3 General] hello00:
what lag? if u see a little bit of lag thats because of the recorder running on the background..i also dont get any lag using the stock launcher

http://youtu.be/wUbmVGQxDww
[G3 General] jaydiez10:
Phones are still products built by people & people makes mistakes. You might need to trade your phone in due to a defect if your lag is that horrendous. I'm with Verizon (unfortunately) & I don't experience any of the aforementioned lag. Battery wise, I'm in the military & work inside a pretty dense building. That causes my phone to die quickly because of it searching for a connection. However, toggle data & I'm golden! This is my favorite phone by far!

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] geckoguy:
Ok i have been trying to get kit kat installed for two days now. I bought this phone used and it had Cyanogenmod 4.4.4 installed on it. I had to flash an ruu on it in order to unlock it (locked to Telus). That worked perfectly except now i can't get cyanogenmod installed again. I have s-off, supercid, and im on hboot 2.14. I know that in order to flash kk, I need the modified twrp. I can get all the recoveries below 2.7 to work including the regular 2.6.3.0 one. Whenever i flash the modified one using fastboot it just ends up going into a bootloop.(Right now i have no os installed.) This is sooo frustrating.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mrage:
Try the latest official TWRP for Evita, 2.7.1.0 I believe it is.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] geckoguy:
No luck, still getting the boot loop.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] geckoguy:
OMFG I DID IT! What i did was reinstall the telus ruu but then this time i installed all of the ota updates after that. Now all the recoveries install fine. Back to kit kat finally :)

HI There

I have had two XDA's and loved them both, but found them impractacle when the battery ran out , I lost everything

Is the new Orbit any different or is there now a back up memory to allow it to save and not lose data?

Anyone know battery life on this device as well?

Many Thanks to you kind people for any help!

Hope i can be welcomed back into the Xda fold

(i am stuck between this and the sony 950i !)

Thanks

[General Questions and Answers] crazyC:
Presumably it will be a WM5 device and hence have persistent memory, like the Hermes etc.??
[General Questions and Answers] davidandrews:
HI There

Thanks for the reply!

This is the deal breaker for me, If this thing loses all its settings etc like the previous two XDA / XDAIIi i had before then i will avoid it as its so annoying

all reads good though battery life, its just best knowing whether it retains everything if you can't get to a plug socket in time!

Anyone know yet? Many Thanks !!!

Hello XDA!

I have a Galaxy Tab 3 7' Wi-Fi and tried to flash NoleKat: http://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/?id=5247

I wiped everything in Philz Touch Recovery and installed v1.1 and then the 1.2 update, just like it's explained in the thread. But now my tab only boots into recovery and doesn't start the ROM :(

I even tried to recover my backup, but it only starts the recovery...

What should I do? :(

EDIT: SOLVED IT! I just used Odin to flash the Stock-ROM (and got 50 GB Dropbox space for 2 years :D) and restored my backup. I think I wiped a wrong partition.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andromeda 90:
You must have the latest version of the recovery, I recommend the zip flashes TWRP 2.7.1.0 from your current recovery, or md5 with odin. And again performed the steps well, sorry for not being able to put links.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mistral_blue:
Evening all,

Hoping someone can help me with the following please? Please be as technical as you like, I'm fairly tech-savvy (I have CFW on my PSP, I build my own computers and have flashed/cfw various devices in the past) if I don't understand I can google it, but I need to know WHAT to google first and I'm a bit lost...! :good:

I have stock TF201 which is getting pretty painful despite a recent re-install. I've noticed that there is still no real idea as to if/when KitKat will be rolled out for it and was rather p!ssed off to see my missus's Nexus 7 (2012 version!) get 4.4.3 today!

I've done a lot of googling and forum reading but I'm a little confused as to the best route to go...

Having come across the "one-click method to root" using motochopper (and/or other methods) would it then be possible to install 4.4.2 for example using CM11 and a guide such as this (google "Install Android 4.4.2 KitKat on Asus Transformer Prime TF201" as I can't post URLs) - or will this only work for OFW release like 4.2?

In summary, am I missing the point (I get the feeling I may need to be unlocked as well to have a custom recovery?), THEN root etc...

Long and short is I'm not after doing anything crazy other than getting my TF201 to the latest STABLE(ish) version of Android. I understand the risks of bricking, CFW/OFW & OTA etc. I guess I'm basically after a simple list of steps (or pointing at the relevant thread) to achieve this - from the guides I've seen I have to unlock, root and then go down the CM11 route but I want to know if I can get there more easily/safely using one-click root or another method for example?

All advice gratefully received!

Mark
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lj50036:
Man your asking for alot :D

Shoot me a PM lets see if we can point you in the right direction.....

Thx Josh
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Restorer:
Yep, that's the only route to custom ROM and vital you make NVFlash backups:

1. Unlock device using the official tool from Asus website - its says "for ICS" but works fine on JB.

2. Assuming you are on the latest official stock JellyBean (Asus v 10.4.2.18) then go get the latest TWRP 2.6 for TF201 JB from the bottom of this page: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/tf201 Flash that blob using fastboot following the instructions in the section titled "Download - Recovery Image / Fastboot Method (using ICS or JB Asus bootloader)" on this page: http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/93.

3. Follow the instructions in the tutorial here for making NVFlash backups: http://matthill.eu/android/transform...ybean-nvflash/

4. You are now ready flash a custom ROM of your choice. If you really want to go straight to KK then my advice would be to look no further than CROMBi-kk: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2773812. You will get plenty of help here from people who know about the tf201. Read the whole thread but pay particular attention to post #4 where Josh has written a step by step guide for people starting from scratch.

Finally, though you are pretty safe now with your NVFlash backups and even though you are well experiences at flashing, follow all the instructions to the letter and avoid the sadly well tested routes to brick. I don't believe there is another android device in current use that is so easy to brick as the prime.

1. Use only TWRP recoveries. Steer completely clear of CWM and ROM Manager. They never did produce an official recovery for JB on the prime and installing the last one from their site onto the JB bootloader will most certainly land you with a brick. The flatline process leaves behind its own version of CWM but has been made compatible. However, you probably won't be able to see your external SD card with it and it is based on a clunky non-touch version so best advice would be to ditch it straight away for TWRP 2.6 even though you will be upgrading that shortly anyway,

2. Always check you are flashing the correct version of TWRP for your current bootloader and ROM

3. Never, ever press that Wipe Data button on the fastboot screen - that too will kill your tablet.

Oh, and have fun!

EDIT: just seen Josh has offered to hold your hand - don't let go and you'll be fine :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mistral_blue:
Thanks for the quick replies gents... Restorer, I'll read up on the methods you suggest (thanks for the detailed list with links, exactly what I was after) and then Josh I'll be in touch to check I've not missed anything before I start following the Yellow BRICK road:laugh:

Taking The Plunge!

Restorer thanks for the instructions...like the title I am about to take the "plunge" and flash this Prime and I want to got to KK. Just one thing.. below you state: "4. You are now ready flash a custom ROM of your choice. If you really want to go straight to KK then my advice would be to look no further than CROMBi-kk: http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2773812. " but when I go to the link it says that I must be on Hairybean and the bootloader 4.2.1. I am currently on the stock 10.4.2.18 and downloaded the unlock v6 .apk file from Asus to do the bootloader "unlocking" Just for the sake of clarity...I am new to this...should I still unlock using the Asus util and once done then do the Hairybean update? which will in turn upgrade the bootloader (10.6.1.27.1)?

Tim
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Restorer:
Yes, you can't flash anything until the device is unlocked and you have installed a TWRP recovery.

But make sure to then make your NVFlash backups and once you have those files safely stored go straight on to follow Josh's step-by-step guide for in post #4 of the ROM thread. His guide was written specifically for TF201 people coming from stock. Follow it to the letter but be sure to ask if there is something you don't understand.

Good Luck!

Taking The Plunge!

Sorry just one more question, since I have a TF201 and and want to use this ROM, it seems I am essentially turning my Prime into aTF300, which is ok, now right after unlocking the boot loader and then running TWRP (2.7 TF300) it is at this point I flash the hairybean update or do the creation & backing up for NVFlash first then the hairybean?...sorry for the elemental question...just want to be sure!

Tim
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Restorer:
No you're not a TF300 yet! Unlock then flash the latest TWRP version for TF201 from the page I linked to (

still 2.6

). Then do your NVFlash backups. Then you can pick up Josh's guide again where you flash "Upgrade Hairybean 2.31 (4.2.1) Bootloader & TWRP (2.5).zip". It's just the guide assumes you already have your backups ;).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tim2min:
Taking The Plunge!

Hey restorer this can all be done on a non-root device correct? Should root first if so what is the best way you suggest ...read a little something about motochopper.?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tim2min:
Taking The Plunge!

Have a possible issue when trying to after renaming the original file flat_tf201 (image file) to twrp.blob it looks like on the windows 7 side it sent it fine but on the tablet I did not see the "blue bar". So worried it did not send I tried it again and got the "error cannot open twrp.blob" when I did a dir of the fastboot directory it is there but noticed is the command prompt after renaming (per instructions from TWRP) the full file name was twrp.blob.img should not matter but renamed it (from command prompt) w/o the .img extension still would not send.

I am thinking eventhough it initially looked like it did send (based on output in command prompt initially) is it possible I missed the blue bar on the tablet?... Should I have seen it? Does it take awhile?

The tablet shows "starting Fastboot USB download protocol"

any help what be appreciated
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lj50036:
Why rename the the .img file to a .blob file ?

Not really the best thing you could do .....

Just boot to fastboot and run the command

fastboot flash recovery flatline_tf201.img

The blue bar will show up and fill on the write part of the command ...

Once that is done do this command .....

fastboot reboot-bootloader

Let the tablet reboot into bootloader and VOL up on RCK

Now your golden ......

Make sure you understand what need to be done in flatline ...

Thx Josh
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Restorer:
No need to root first - the custom ROM you will be installing will be rooted.

---------- Post added at 08:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:59 AM ----------

Sounds like you have downloaded (and renamed) the .img file and not the .blob file! "openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-tf201-JB.blob" is the one you want if you are follwoing the instructions on the TWRP page I linked you too. The blob file Josh refers to is the one in this zip file and has a shorter name. You can either use Josh's instructions or TWRP's but not a mixture of the two :D

[MENTION=5123642]lj50036[/MENTION] I think he referring to the instructions from TWRP on the downloads page which say to rename the file to a shorter form.

[MENTION=4761192]tim2min[/MENTION] don't let this renaming stuff confuse you - TWRP are only suggesting it because their full names are so long and prone to error when you are typing them out!

EDIT: Sorry, I hadn't realised Josh had already prepared and renamed the files for you. Just use all 3 of his files contained in his zip and not from my links or you may get further confused.

Just an observation Restorer I note that you said never to select "Wipe Data" in the boot menu but in Josh step by step he suggested to do that which can take a while. In this case it ok to do it since we are putting on a new ROM. I have my backups (blob files) as well as the NVFlash file

Taking The Plunge!

Man it was going so well until my computer could no longer see my tablet via USB! so I can now longer use FASTBOOT because the device is not found. This happen right after flashing Hariybean and I was about to run"

Interesting my Win7 computer says that it sees the Asus device:but fastboot does not see it. Also initially the it saw it as an APX device but no longer so I can not do the next step which is to adb reboot-bootloader and then do flash [MENTION=5280400]ne0zone75[/MENTION] TWRP recovery per the instuctions. I have tried re-pointing to the Universal Naked drivers trying to select a diffrent drvier but to no avail. looks like the tablet can no longer communicate to the computer. I will copy the contents of the fastboot directory to another computer and see if that will work

any ideas?

Tim
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lj50036:
Sounds like another windows driver issue .....

I really cant help much here as I dont use windows ...

But there is a short term solution at least to get you booted up ....

@ne0zone75's flashable zip twrp

Download this and move it into your folder that contains the fastboot.exe ... Then rename it to twrp.zip

Then boot into the recovery and run this command from CMD window

adb push twrp.zip /sdcard

Let that happen should not take long, find the zip file under install and flash it .....

YOU MUST DO A REBOOT AFTER THIS NOT JUST A REBOOT INTO BOOTLOADER ...

So lets run this command ....

adb reboot

Let it fully boot into a bootloop then with the buttons get back to the bootloader screen and enter RCK ...

then once you have done that continue on your way ....

Let me know this works for you ....

Thx Josh
