[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jayjr1105:
Long story short.

Was running a 4.1.2 which worked well but wanted to go to KK.

Installed Gummy M3 4.4.4, absolutely love it, no issues except cell signal seems considerably worse than before. Baseband is VRBLMD3.

Not sure if firmware/baseband is accurate for 4.4 or if there's something I can flash to try and rectify. A little confused overall on the whole verizon modem thing. I had a captivate on ATT before and I just flashed any of the 30 different modems via recovery to help with signal issues.

Would appreciate any help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
I've read more than one topic on this same issue. Not sure what the solution is however. Maybe update the modem to something new? I wouldn't go beyond ML1 however

Yes.

Flash mf1 aio then ml1 modem. Should give a better signal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jayjr1105:
All the links to newer modems appear to be dead. I looked around quite a bit. I'd be grateful if someone can provide a dropbox link or similar.

Edit: It appears invisiblek's site is down and that's where all the AIO packages are linked to. Does anyone have any links to other mirrors?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Here's what I found on his dev host page. Newest is ML1

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jayjr1105:
Is that modem only? Don't I need to flash an aio first?

Thanks for finding that btw
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
You should update mf1 first, or find MB1 aio. Then flash ml1 modem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Yes they are the modems only. After looking I only found the MB1 AIO

Can you plug an universal without battery to external power?

What I want is to use my jasjar at home without recharging any battery. I could just try it, of course, but I wanted to know in advance whether doing so can damage the universal.

I think, I read someone did this a while back and fried their Universal. Hey, but it is up to you if you want to try it.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grifter9931:
Hey Everyone,

Curious to know if anyone has buyers remorse over making the switch to this device from another device?

Does anyone ever run the phone within the confines of the original OS?

What is your real world expectation 6 months from now with this device?

How long do you plan on keeping the device?

What is the most important everyday feature that is a keeper & deal breaker?

How has the form factor impacted the way you look at phones in terms of the screen size vs the size of the device?

Also as a side note. Have anyone ever worked with a fully calibrated monitor like a Eizo or a Ben-Q?

Or for industry folks, any panasonic or Sony broadcast monitors? The correlation being those monitors have the same look at least to my eyes.

Finally have you ever acquired a device that you did not initially have buyers remorse?

I have the phone myself. I am just curious to what the community at large is vibing at the moment...
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sweets55:
I'm happy with the G3 especially the screen and camera. I jumped to the G3 from the LG Flex. Nice that the T-Mobile G3 comes with a unlocked bootloader and I'm sure development will be good with time. I'm a phone junkie and usually just keeps phones around 6 months. Jump helps with that.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Slash8915:
Sometimes I DO regret getting this phone. It's a good phone, but it's just not the earth shattering, mega phone I was hoping for. Even rooted with no bloatware, i still experience lag, freezes, and subpar battery life. Also, maybe it's just my device, but I'm really not impressed with the screen at all. The blacks seem way too "milky", and i really can't see the difference between this and a 1080 screen, except for when I look at certain photos or videos.

The camera is nice for a 13mp shooter. That's really the main positive.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Batfink33:
I returned it after 2 weeks. To many performance trade offs for the QHD screen. Once the more powerful phones hit later this year (Shamue and Note 4) the G3 will struggle. Although that's why the Prime is being released.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grifter9931:
Curious what other 5.5" screen are you comparing it to?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fir3blade:
Me too returned it after 2 weeks, and the reason was just the screen, everything else is great.

First, couldn't stand this yellowish tinted screen and the poor blacks, and second because of the lag/stuttering
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grifter9931:
Was it lagging in dual window mode or playing a game?

Or was it on a productivity App?

Or was it simple browsing?

Or transitioning from on app to the next?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fir3blade:
As I never used dual window, I can't say if it lags there...

Most annoying was the stuttering to me, and this happened nearly everywhere, transitions, scrolling...

But Lg will fix it sooner or later I guess.

As I wrote, the main reason for returning it was the display...
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sweets55:
Some people have the G3 lag some don't. I don't notice any lag. From what I read on here the lag is simple fix by changing the launcher and or a setting or two. Removing bloat helps too.

My screen is bight and battery is good enough for me. I guess I was lucky and got a good G3.

As far as the G3 being a "wow" phone it's not but I think those days are over for phones. I was going to wait for the Note 4 but after seeing the leaked pictures I think I'm glad I didn't.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teddy0209:
Got the D855 32GB..

All I can say is, I'm so glad i didn't put much attention on others negative opinion about the device...

We all knew it come's with QHD display before buying it, I don't get why too many about it...

As of me, I'm very happy with it... Coming from nexus 7 2013, my criteria for next device was, at least 3gb ram, 32gb internal storage with external (a 64gb internal w/o ext is also okay)... Just saying by the way. =)

There are always those people who have remorse after buying a device by the way..
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flapmio:
I've come from an iPhone 4S!:silly:

I bought the International version with 32GB and the 3GB ram (F400S) and I've not found it laggy at all, even with the all the Korean bloatware apps on there.

The main reason I purchased it was because I was so impressed with the LG G2 that I bought for my wife a few months back, just loved the design and screen.

Hopefully when the "Ints" get their bootloader unlocked and we can nandroid backup and get some cool roms (come on PardusHD!) then it should run even smoother.

The battery life isn't as good as I expected, but then I'm usually charging using a USB port (500mAH) so it will take ages and I've hardly ever had it at 100%:laugh: but it's way better than the iPhone 4s battery life.

I'm a little disappointed in the screen, I don't find it as "bright" as the Samsung S ones, I've just taken off the auto brightness as I found it too low, in any light environment and currently set it at 85%.

Overall design is nice and it's very light. I'm not a fan of big screens, but then that's the way they're all heading nowadays....

Sole reason of fast battery discharge
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeJennni:
I don't have this phone yet but I know the 32g has 3 gigs of ram and the 16 has 2 gigs. Might be why some suffer lag. Make sure when comparing you specify which version folks
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fir3blade:

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grifter9931:
Hi Fir3blade,

Can you link a video of the stuttering if you know one?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fir3blade:
Sorry didn't make myself a video, saw the stuttering in some video reviews, but I don't remember them, as I watched quite lots, sorry ☺
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Batfink33:
Here's an example of the stutter in games. At 8min 20.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeebuspwnz:
I don't have buyer's remorse exactly, but I'm not thrilled with the device in every way. I like the camera a lot better than the one on my HTC One M7, and the G3 battery life is better than my M7. That's really it. My M7 felt snappier in every way, and the screen looked better. Once the Nexus 6 comes out I will likely sell the G3 and pick one up. I just can't stand all this locked bootloader nonsense and the lack of development that occurs as a consequence.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grifter9931:
TY I am trying to recreate the stutter as we speak... Interesting stuff
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grifter9931:
I noticed a few myself. I wonder why the reviewers did not mention the stuttering.....
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flapmio:
What's the point in having a really good screen (the best so far?), if you can't use it?:p
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChrisM75:
I did have a little remorse at the start, but I guess it all depends what you came from. I thought the screen was dull and dim compared to my G2, but I just compared it to my best mates HTC One M7 (which was mine). My G3 is actually more vibrant and brighter and easier to read in direct sunlight! The problem is simply that the G2 is retina burningly bright and very over saturated and I got used to it.

With a few small tweaks and the latest firmware I have zero lag and zero stutter. There isnt a problem with heat either.

I am getting rid of G3 and now Life is good ! :)
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sidz4u:
Can we return our G3s if we wish to ?

Does LG give a 100% return ?

I bought my phone on 11 August.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sweets55:
You don't know the return policy where you bought your phone from? Most places give you 14 days and you might have to pay a restocking fee. Look on your receipt.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Coldheat1906:
Yes.... but I guess I have to live w/it

I have a little remorse..... why you ask.....

Well I bought the G3 on July 15th (or so).... the reason why is cause my son turned 13 and I promised him my HTC One M7....... well low and behold...... 15 days after I gave him my phone I finally got the invite to buy the Oneplus One........

So your probably asking why I am upset.... well

since I got the G3 my bill went up $25 for the next 24 months ($600 + tax) not to mention I had to pay $55 for the G3......

If my invite would of came sooner I would of only paid $350 for a unlocked phone.

Now with all that said I do like my G3 I just wish that my bill did not have to go up $25
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faded03cobra:
No regrets, but I switch phones every few months.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tntgdh:
No regrets at all. I love the phone and the screen is awesome. Mine has zero lag and with the 10j it had become the perfect phone!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leroybrute:
I have regrets also... That I didn't buy 3 of them!

It's funny that I have never regretted buying a phone! I have had most all of them and loved them all.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tntgdh:
I only regret the Galaxy s3...weird phone and lots of bugs. The gs4 was my favorite until I got my g3.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bayuadhi069:
Well, battery suffers compare to my G2 with cloudyG3 rom. But it is still a gorgeous phone and i dont regret having it. Will be better when more application support 1440p natively
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superandroid2011:
I would regret buying it after paying U$ 665 for it and not seeing anything espetacular.

But since I recovered U$ 485 from selling my old G2 and another U$ 90 after selling the LG G3 Wireless Charger that came bundled (I always use a case, so WC was pointless), this phone ended up costing me just U$ 90.00.

This phone has a great design and build quality but it has a few flaws that the G2 didn't have like bad screen quality (poor contrast, poor blacks, dull colors and visible digitizer), stutter, lags and worse performance than G2 due to its unnecessary 2K screen.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] homer285:
The phone rocks and its QHD 4X the pixel density of HD making it 4K not 2K, I may be wrong though.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fir3blade:
Have a search on Google what parameters defines a 4K, 2K and so on display... [emoji57]
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Batfink33:
Its 2k. 4times the number of pixels of a 720 display therefore "Quad HD.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] helikido:
After I first initially returned the phone, I got stuck with one that has a yellow tint to it. Because of that I now have buyers remorse. Should have not been stupid enough to exchange my original G3. Damn.

---------- Post added at 08:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:40 PM ----------

Technically it should be called 3k.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Batfink33:
2560 pixels horizontally so 2.5k?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithleyson:
I had buyer's remorse a few days after I bought the device and started experience lag in the UI. Lag like scrolling on my twitter feed and it starts and stops. Not just twitter but also other apps will long lists or a wall of text.

Now I am loving the phone. Was planning on giving this to my father but now I think I'll buy him another one for himself.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acparker18:
I personally love my G3. I'm sure better devices will come out within a matter of months but I was due for an upgrade and this seemed like the best phone. I'm running stock rooted 10b with all Verizon and bloatware apps uninstalled. I also use Nova launcher but the stock LG launcher seemed pretty smooth to me I just like having terminal widgets and couldn't get that working right on the stock Home.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cooldoud:
I was initially supposed to get the Z2 but with it being difficult/expensive to get off contract in south africa, and with the g3 being much sexier (those bezels... it's smaller, lighter but still packs a bigger screen!), I went with LG.

There's one thing in particular I was worried about the g3 when picking it up, that was the battery. Back from work now, 12 hours on battery with 1 hour 10 minutes screen on and I have 82% battery left (lte, mail syncing and all). The phone I feel is quite fast. Sure there are some stutters sometimes in some apps, but at least to me it's far from making the phone a lagfest, and I haven't noticed any of the other issue mentioned here (no overheating and my digitizer is barely visible unless I really look for it). The stock software is also surprisingly nice and doesn't make me want to flash the first aosp Rom I can find like a touchwiz Rom does... After a bit of xposed, g3 toolbox, gmd gesture control and nav bar auto hide, I think it's a really great phone, somewhat better than I expected actually as I was worried the qhd would kill the performance and the battery, which doesn't seem to be the case (to me at least, I know many will disagree with this...)

Overall very satisfied with my new toy, it's night and day when compared to my old note 1.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] junkinmytrunk426:
only remorse I have is that i didnt realize the bootloader was locked down. now since i know the G2 never had a unlocked bootloader im pretty wary about the G3...

Cant really complain about anything else about the phone, maybe the screens contrast/viewing angles, thats about it tho.

Hi, all you need to do is go to the Sony website to recover your phone. The update software page has a repair option. There is also a reset button near the sim tray. Hold it down till the phone reboots.

[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] JJS123:
Hey I've read another thread on this but it's a few months ago but I'm curious if anything has changed.

Any news on whether they'll be releasing the Nuud for the S5? And if they've fixed the sound issues with the Fre? I may just settle for that one.

Also your opinion on another waterproof case?

Thanks for any input.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] v3rn:
Life proof said they weren't making a Nuud for the S5 I believe. The Otter box Preserver is a better choice over the Fre.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] JJS123:
Oh really. Well thanks for the input. After a bit more thought I'm leaning towards the Urban Armour Gear. Not waterproof but this S5 is supposed to be waterproof..
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Tenchuu:
I am here researching the S5 as a new phone, but i can comment on UAG cases since the design is still the same as mine:

I have had a UAR case for about 1.5 years on my S3, that got submerged for about 10 seconds yesterday, but had no effect and did not ever trip water indicators.

UAG case fit is extremely tight, and the buttons were a little stiff to start out. Over a year later it is still fits tight but buttons are perfect. IT developed a hairline crack in the bottom 1/2 that makes it easier to get in in out than it used to be. The protection is awesome as i routinely come home and toss the shone face down across the table. 0 scratches or dents. The case has also survived multiple falls form 4-6 feet onto concrete with no sign of damage to case or phone.

The one issue i have is that the case really traps in the heat, and playing graphically intense games makes it quite hot, as well as increasing the cool down times that come from sitting in a waterproof box in the sun on a boat all day long.

Work phones are Iphones in otterbox defender cases. If someone needs to use the phone they take it out of the case since it is a PIA to use/hear/talk with the otterbox case. Also these cases are looking rough after rolling around in vehicles, being dropped, and sitting in the sun for long days.

between the two I would got for the UAG, however the case looks really bland after a while and I am wanting something a little more interesting for when i get a S5.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] v3rn:
I have a UAG case as well as the Preserver. The problem I have with the UAG and most cases is that it's tough for me to remove the charging port cover from the phone. I don't have fingernails. So I installed one of those wireless charging pads under my battery door. But that removed the water resistance of the phone. So having the wireless charging in the Otterbox Preserver is perfect for me. Wireless charging and it's still waterproof. The UAG is nice, but if you hate removing that charging door, you'll hate it even more with the case.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] elesbb:
I disagree. I have owned the Preserver and returned it for the LifeProof Fre. The Preserver did not hold tightly together and a drop of < 2 feet would cause the front to become separated from the back which would allow any water to enter into the case. The phone itself is only waterproof for 30 minutes at 3 feet. I love the LifeProof Fre and haven't had any issues in the month of owning it. Been thrown, dropped, submerged, compressed in pocket and not a single thing wrong with the case or phone. I HIGHLY recommend the LifeProof Fre. Also, I think I have a solution to the charger port cover being hard to get to.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] JJS123:
Hey, yeah I went straight to assuming the UAG on the S5 would be as great as the one they made for the HTC One. Many reviewers all have the same issues.

Charging port is enough reason for me to pass. It's already difficult with short finger nails so it'll be down right impossible with that case.

What is the solution? And what about the mic issue during phone calls?
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] elesbb:
There is no mic issue during phone calls. And i have to do it yet i'll post pictures. But the mic issue was old when they were FIRST releasing their cases. They even took it off their site until they fixed it which they did now.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] JJS123:
Oh great. Mic issue was a main concern of mine I heard about the removal from their site too.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] elesbb:
Yeah i wanted to get one cause i couldn't stand the Preserver case but they didn't have them on their website. Best Buy was even out of stock. you could still order it but it said they were on back order. I'm quite happy with it tbh. Some say i sound muffled when in a phone call but i was messing with my ROM so i think it was that. Also, its only my father who says it, so i think its his phone/ears :P Just ordered pizza today and he had no issues of hearing me. Also recorded my phone calls and i sound like my normal retarded self :P
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] JJS123:
Haha great well I am going to see if I can bring myself to spend the $90 on the case soon.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] elesbb:
90? Should be around 70 or 80. I actually think there may be an issue with the mic. Second person stated I sounded muffled.Gonna call them and see if they'll replace it. Haven't read any bad reviews.

Hello (XDA Padfone X) world.

First, just got mine and L-O-V-E IT! Talking and texting while redditing in bed on a tablet is the coolest.

I made a folder on the bottom of the screen in what I would call the "drawer". This folder includes my flashlight app and the android settings app. It seems every time disconnect the phone from the base dock station, the folder is gone.

What the what!?

UPDATE-

The folder is actually disappearing before I put the phone into the station. I set the folder up and used the (native) Settings app then shortly after that noticed the folder was gone.
[Asus Padfone X and S] ghost0001:
OK, is this folder on both the phone and the station? The phone and station do not share the same home screen. You can even have separate wallpapers for each. You need to set up the folder on both.
