[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asafaq:
You mean this?

Hard to believe it's a battery issue. The phone is mostly idle, and can go 4-5 days without charging. It got turned off because I left it on for too long.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yeahman45:
I am interested to know if the quad HD display was a buying factor for you guys or instead it was a deal breaker? ; Personally for me I find the Lg G3 great (I wanted to buy the G2 last year but there's no sd-card slot and removable battery) but the quadHD display is a deal breaker for me : it eats battery, increase temperature, reduced brightness and performance and you can hardly notice a diff between 1080p and 2k.

Vote guys :) thx
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xlxcrossing:
At first it was a huge factor since it was a rare upgrade to 1080p. The 1440p screen was only seemingly noticeable when first viewing it but in hindsight I realize there was no added detail in things like web viewing. Even the extra pixel detail in 2k videos is a bit too squashed to fully realize its clarity. I also bought it for what I thought would be speed, performance and battery life. It really hasn't lived up to anything except its design aesthetic. To me its just my smartphone now and not my top of the line smartphone. I can only hope future Android updates will improve the performance of this phone since it really has some amazing specs and is more than capable of delivering a good user experience.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yeahman45:
I love the design too but performance looks pretty poor and I don't think updates will fix it... it is limited because of that 2k display, which tbh is just a gimmick.

Note 4 is rumoured to be a 2k display which will use the snapdragon 804 which lead to believe snapdragon 801 is not really meant for 2k display in the first place.

So what phone are you looking to buy? S3 S4 Sony SP G2 or G3

Your recent posts are very interesting!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 573W1E:
For me the QHD display wasn't a selling point or a deal breaker for me when considering the G3. The other device I was considering was the Xperia Z2 but I was ultimately put off the Z2 by how insistent Sony was in releasing a replacement every 6 months (and lo and behold, its being announced in a week or so). What I liked the look of about the G3 was the fact it was pretty much the only Android phone left with OIS (something I really appreciated on my HTC One and was crestfallen when they removed it from the M8) and that it had a removable battery in a body that actually looked and felt (surprisingly) premium while having a larger display in a similar sized body to other flagships.

Concerning the display, I don't feel that the 1440p resolution is a bad idea. Whether we like it or not, this is where all mobile devices (flagships atleast) will be heading towards very soon, so to be an early adopter will always have teething problems. I think that the Snapdragon 801 is not the problem here that the performance "issues" people are experiencing are down to the software and restrictions put in place to control heat (which can be disabled but frankly, LG should try and focus on improving in this area and build their phones to a slightly higher standard, I guess this is probably the reason why you can find LG's flagships for 2/3 the price of competitors after a few months, there is evidently some cost cutting going on somewhere). Also coming from the One M7, while its display was fantastic (brilliant whites, spot on colours, great viewing angles), the G3's display is really not that much worse, my observations picking up that its not as bright (but still usable outside) and the whites do look a faint greyer. But the tiny bezels on the G3 are a worth it over those small niggles for me.

As much as I have enjoyed my G3 over the last month and a half, my biggest issue with the G3 is the locked bootloader and LG's reluctance to embrace third party developer practises. Many other OEMs such as Sony, HTC and Motorola now offer bootloader unlock processes for their devices, while LG is being far from transparent regarding the issue with mixed messages coming from various channels of communication. Hopefully with the G3 being a sales success for them, this may get them to reconsider.

[Sony Xperia L] Donald750:
Hi, I have Sony Xperia L (C2105) with Android 4.2.2 and it is rooted. My phone should have 8 GB of internal memory. Only 5.57 GB is usable but it would not matter. 4 GB of 5.57 GB is separated and marked as "sdcard0". So I can't install applications there but I can only move data of applications there. Remaining 1.57 GB is used as internal storage and all aplications are installed to this small storage. My memory card is marked as "sdcard1". Is there any way to increase internal storage or merge internal storage and sdcard0 to one big internal storage?

I think i got em

[Sony Xperia L] Kahana82:
Please look into this post I made a few weeks ago...the thread's name it's posted in doesn't help in finfing it I must admit.

So here it is for our Xperia L:

Open a command window: CMD, then get into shell:

adb shell

Once in shell, type:

umount /storage

parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

print

This prints out the partition information of your phone's memory chip

You will see the partition numbers in the first column, partition names in the last one,

in between you have the start/end memory index and the partition size

------start---end---size

...

31---1795---3506---1711---userdata

32---3506---7818---4312---sdcard​

In the above output, consider the values indicated in italic as not to be changed !

Now calculate (open a spreadsheed if you like) the new value for the end of the userdata partition,

and use the same value for the start of the sdcard partition

On your sheet it should look something like this if you added 2048 to the userdata size

------start---end---size

31---1795---5554---3759---userdata

32---5554---7818---2264---sdcard​

Remove userdata and sdcard partitions:

rm 31

rm 32

Create the new userdata and sdcard partitions:

mkpartfs logical ext2 1795 5554

name 31 userdata

mkpartfs logical fat32 5554 7818

name 32 sdcard

Exit parted to go to the adb shell again:

quit

userdata partition (31) needs to have ext4 file system

The following will do the ext2->ext4 conversion:

cd /storage/sdcard1/fs-utils

tune2fs -j /dev/block/mmcblk0p31

tune2fs -O extents,uninit_bg,dir_index /dev/block/mmcblk0p31

e2fsck -fpDC0 /dev/block/mmcblk0p31

Now you can go to recovery and format the sdcard partition (default)

Then you can restore the backup you made before all this or do a clean install
[Sony Xperia L] SoulFury:
I'm waiting for this phone which bought few days ago. Do we need to have firmware file for doing that? Could you please explain for dumbs the "

Now you can go to recovery and format the sdcard partition (default)

Then you can restore the backup you made before all this or do a clean install" thing??

My knowledge on this is reduced to flashtool and some root stuff. Thanks in advance
[Sony Xperia L] Aenadon:
That means: If you have made a backup, use the backup. If not, flash some software (and wipe cache/data == clean install)
[Sony Xperia L] SoulFury:
So I connect phone to pc, do the thing using ADB, then flash it with stock firmware(for example) wiping cache,huh? Seems easy. Many thanks
[Sony Xperia L] SoulFury:
I'm trying it but adb won't let me do umount /storage, it sais "invalid argument" :S
[Sony Xperia L] Aenadon:
Hey man I just realized that after repartitioning you should better not flash stock firmware as I heard many cases in which the phone was bricked afterwards (with CM there is no problem)
[Sony Xperia L] SoulFury:
I've read about it too, but it seems to happen randomly :S. But my first problem is the "umount" thing
[Sony Xperia L] SoulFury:
Up this guys, I really would like to do this thing
[Sony Xperia L] Aenadon:
Did you do that first step?
[Sony Xperia L] Kahana82:
Did you try that with adb connected tot the phone within CWM recovery mode (not from your Android OS) ?
[Sony Xperia L] SoulFury:
I've tried different ways

First of all, I have the phone with "usb debug" enabled, with my sdcard out and normally connected. If I do "adb devices" it launches daemon and show me my device connected

But when I enter the shell, if I do the same thing, devices is not showed, but I can access and do "ls" and navigate through the directories.

I can't either adb pull /dev/block/mmcblk0 mmcblk0.img, it sais that "remote object is not a file or directory", but it is.

I'm running Windows 7 SP1 with last version of Android Studio(SDK) and manually added my phone to android_winusb.inf

any idea? Thanks in advance
[Sony Xperia L] Aenadon:
Try to navigate to the directory and then just use adb pull mmcblk0.img (without the path)
[Sony Xperia L] SoulFury:
Well, something is going wrong. If I do adb devices at first, it shows my phon, but when I do adb shell, althoug I apparently have acces to my phone directories, adb devices is empty :S
[Sony Xperia L] SdtBarbarossa:
ah come on guys dont touch this if you are kinda that rookie... want to hardbrick your device?

i will explain you:

you do : adb devices

you do that ON PC

pc looks for devices and show you

then you do : adb shell

you will switch from PC to PHONE comand prompt

then you do again: adb devices

you do that ON PHONE ...

and on your phone there isnt another phone conected ;)
[Sony Xperia L] SoulFury:
Ooooook thanks. First of all, only starting to be a rookie you'll become master XDDD. Until now, I've only flashed,rooted and modded some firmware on all of my xperias since x10 mini pro, and I hope I'll learn more and more.

Next, still having the thing about the umounting of storage.I've tried with sdcard out. Even pull command(out of the shell xD) doen'ts work with dev/block/mmcblk0
[Sony Xperia L] SdtBarbarossa:
adb devices

adb pull /dev/block/mmcblk0 c:/users/bla/mmcblk0.img

you have to do that ON PC command prompt.... dont switch to shell
[Sony Xperia L] SoulFury:
That's exatcly what I do and I get always "remote object '/dev/block/mmcblk0' not a file or directory"(and I've verified that it exist)

[Sony Xperia M] The Deciphering Joker:
Same Problem Mate !

Facing the same problem.. havent found any solution as of yet. Figured bestt way for now is to deodex the Rom and disable the Sytem Update alltogether... And then can enable and check for updates once in a while ;)

yeahhh nyc solution bro..

but now i have jumped on cm11 nightlies.... its awsm n smooth more than stock... :)
[Sony Xperia M] The Deciphering Joker:
I know The Customization gets you hooked.. Anyways tried out quite a few... CM11 best... Resurrection gives you much richer UI.. Better Customs..Also Currently on ArchiDroid Have not checked that out yet but its installation was very detailed and comes with quite a lot of quality advanced user apps :)

The reason am switching back to stock is the richer UI experience and the most imp the quality of cam and call..

Might be different for you but what i noticed is the call quality is not that good in custom rom. I dont know enough to tell if technically thats possible but thats what i noticed.

So Going back to Stock Rom----->Upgrading to new firmware---->Installing CWM recovery----->deodexing the rom----->Rooting the Rom. And Ready to use :silly:

I Have a rooted Sprint Lg g3, after activating call recording from G3 tweakbox i lost call audio on my earpiece, i can only hear it while on speakerphone or with headphones. I've tried everything i could think of and nothing works ( Factory data reset, Hard reset throught recovery, going completely back to stock with LG flash tool) and absolutely nothing works. I bought the phone from sprint about 20 days ago, so store exchange is out of the question. Any help or sugestions will be greatly apreciated. :confused:
[Sprint LG G3] fergie716:
Which module did you use? Your best bet is contact the author of the module and see if they can help you.

For the activation failures try using the ##SCRTN# or ##UPDATE# codes, if neither of those work try ##RTN#

You need your MSL/SPC for ##RTN# (guide here to find that) and your phone will reboot a few times
[Sprint LG G3] skyisthelimit83:
I was able to activate the phone

I was able to activate the phone with your sugestions, thank you. still no luck with the in call audio, Do you think this might have something to do with build.prop changes the xposed call recording module or g3 tweakbox may have done to the phone ?

if it's not clear how...

you will need a sim to do this (the original network if the device is locked), but just turn the device on and go to connection manager.

in there, turn off phone (radio functions) and the device will operate as if it's on airplane mode from then on.

are you running it with the softbank rom? if so, there shouldn't be a way to do that without the softbank sim. that stupid screen telling you to insert a sim will appear when a softbank sim is not inserted and that won't let you do anything from there.

there is another way of killing that stupid screen using sb_usim if you still have the earlier softbank rom on it. i hear that sb_usim can't kill that screen if it's the new rom with bootloader 1.09. search for sb_usim in this forum if you are interested, but that still requires the softbank sim in it to install it in the first place.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] dam:
Another trick with bootoader 1.09 ?

Are you sure about that ? I mean, the already known trick of 1.09 by softbank was that you can not SIM unlock:( . Then now, you say that you can not kill the pop up screen for usim even with sb_usim :eek:
