[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frelnik:
USB Host Mode charging issue (plus Car Mode) just started happening to me last night. I can intermittently charge while the phone is on, but it's inconsistent. Nothing I've tried so far has fixed it for more than a few minutes. Probably will have to send it in for warranty service.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ali.maken:
OK, so now after I charged my phone to 100% while it was off and turned it back on, I am also having the same CAR mode app problem.

Maybe the latest update that is coming our way can solve this problem. I am talking about the update with the EYE enhancements etc.

Actually, I have an I-mate JaMin(G4) with radio rom 2.47.21........I m recieving full signals from network operator with band GSM 900......but not from any other operators.....like GSM 1800...GSM 1900......GSM 850......

Is that a software problem........or a hardware problem........

Can the problem be solved by upgrading radio rom....or firmware.....

THANKS IN ADVANCE..........

Hello!

Well firsth of all how do you know that your phone find and register only 800MZH signals?That's weird because as I know GSM/UMTS providers do not enable phone receivers to shov actual frequency...But anyway I had another problem...When I had NOKIA 7710 I only had signal when I was at the bacyard...When I came into house the signal was very poor or no signal at all...So I tought the house was the problem,but what's interesting when I went to basement,the singnal returned to full...No idea what was the problem so I sold it and bought my lovely Prophet...It works super...So,buy yourself prophet and problems will go off;) :rolleyes:
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] kaantay:
But i've already got a prophet...I mean its JAMIN........Can anybody please help me out........plz
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] Alix:
My friend,try installing new OS...

If that doesn't work,than you've got Hardware problem...

Best idea is to contact local service and give it to repair...

I don't know what else to say because this is a really strange problem....

[Moto 360] game king 13:
I've been using the MOTO 360 for about 2 weeks now after switching over from the original Sony Smartwatch. Just from a notification functionality standpoint I feel that android wear in general is really lacking. I know that has a lot to do with how new the software is and it will get better with time.

The things I want the most right now are to be able to see go back and look at messages and emails after they have been dismissed. The Wear messenger app is almost perfect on the messaging side but it doesn't work with MMS which is frustrating.

Are there currently any email apps for android wear that work in the same way as wear messenger does? I have been searching since I got the watch and I've found nothing.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phnord:
[I've posted this question elsewhere, but as it's relevant to both the G3, S5 and general android forums I thought I'd crosspost. Please tell me if this is unacceptable and I'll remove it]

I'm finally moving on from my original Samsung Galaxy Note, and I'm debating what device to move to. This will be my one and only phone, so I'm looking for something well rounded.

After reading reviews of a lot of the best phones on the market, I'm leaning towards a LG G3. It looks and feels fantastic, has a really good camera in both day & night conditions, the screen is awesome, it *seems* to hold up underwater (in spite of no official IP rating), the battery life seems pretty good, etc.

That said, some of the overheating issues I've read about are worrisome - as well as a few other stability issues... I'm not sure how much stock to put in that.

So I'm also considering the Samsung Galaxy S5. It doesn't feel as great, the screen isn't as mindblowing - although it is more vibrant, the camera doesn't do as well in the dark, it seems like one of the most durable phones out there, etc.

Is the S5 significantly more stable than the G3? How do the development communities compare - are they on par in that regard? Can the stability / overheating issues of the G3 be successfully mitigated with tweaks? Is it going to be a nightmare to wrangle into shape?

Or is there another AT&T phone that you'd recommend? Other phones on my radar include the Flex, Note 4, M8 and OnePlus One...

I guess I'm looking for something that's going to hold up as a primary phone for a long time, both in terms of durability and specs, without becoming a nightmare to manage as my Galaxy Note has... and aside from that, my priorities include battery life, stability, video recording (especially in dark conditions), processing power, screen, look / feel, etc. in roughly that order.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarimoMusicHead:
The G3 is, in my book, definitely the most charismatic phone this year. Great camera, okay screen, great handling, even with one hand. The battery life could be better, but then again, I use it heavily, so it's to be expected...

It gets warm on occasion, rarely now since its been upgraded to the 10H version tho, I don't mind it, every phone will get hot while performing dual window Chrome/Whatsapp while multitasking between a few other apps in one of the windows and playing music in the background.

I was waiting for the Moto X to take his spot in the charisma department but that didn't happen..

HTC M8 is the smoothest, has the best build and sound but lacks in the cam department, which is a no go for me.

The S5 is the best all rounder, but has nothing special about it, and I do mean nothing. Sure, you get the fingerprint and heart rate thingy, but, as with all those Samsung features , who really uses them effectively from day to day life. And the touchwizz... Every Samsung phone looks and feels the same lately(phonebook delay).

That said go with the Z3.

It's cool, it has a good camera, feels and looks premium(even tho I don't care about trivial stuff like that), can go underwater, has 3gigs of ram, a nice processor, good screen, good speakers, and a UI that works just fine(I hate the Sony "windowed cheap UI" xD)

Oh, and to top it all, best battery life there is..

And if you got tired of a big screen with the Note, like my brother did, you can always go with the Z3 compact, even better battery life and all the same stuff inside.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phnord:
Hmmm... I wasn't really putting much consideration into the Z3, as it's not offered by AT&T and I'm eligible for an upgrade from them, meaning the G3 is only $199.99.

Can you think of any way to get a Z3 that would be operational on AT&T for a similar price? I don't want to switch carriers, as AT&T has the best reception in the areas I live / visit and I'm still grandfathered into their unlimited data plan.

My biggest concern with the G3 overheating would be the possibility of setting up my phone to take a video of a concert I'm performing in, and returning to find it had overheated, shutdown and I had lost the footage. I heard of that happening to a lot of people at the beginning; has the 10H version taken care of that??

Nah, I like big screens :D

I will say that the G3's screen seems much more handleable in the palm of my hand than the Note, but anything up-to-and-including the size of my Galaxy Note is more than fine with me, and I'd *possibly* be fine with going a bit bigger.

I'm not really interested in the fingerprint sensor or heart rate monitor -- they feel like gimmicks to me. The leading features for the S5 in my book, over the G3, are the durability (waterproof; SUV-crush-proof; etc.), screen brightness / color, and the fact that it doesn't seem to overheat... at least not as badly?

I may be wrong on that last point, but it *seems* like a more reliable phone as such. Am I right in that assumption?

Yeah; the camera, screen, and general low-end specs in comparison to the S5 and G3 have kept me away from the M8

I'm still feeling like I'm leaning towards the G3 at this point... but info on the above questions and more opinions would be helpful :D

Here are a couple of screenshots from those videos I took earlier.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phnord:
So the video recording time is limited to only 5 minutes per shot? That's... pretty unideal. I would like a phone that I could setup before an hour or two long set, and leave there recording to capture a concert I play. I've done this with my Note before in the days before it deteriorated (with the charger plugged in and on airplane mode), and it usually did fine...

Are there work arounds for that 5 minute recording limit - ideally ones that won't make the phone overheat? Are there similar limits on the recording capabilities of other phones out there these days?

I just did some research and learned that the S5, while prettier at first, is actually creating inaccurately eye-popping colors - so I'm less interested in it now. On top of that, I hear that the quality of AMOLEDs degrade over time?

The G3 - is it bright enough to be pretty effective outdoors in daytime? I'm hearing mixed things about that...
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sensamic:
G3 also has lags and screen brightness goes down automatically when overheated just a little bit.

It's annoying.

Also the halo effect issue and oversharpening, less screen brightness, less battery, less performance, etc.

SGS5 is better, although G3 has better design.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarimoMusicHead:
Well, they say that ips lcd screens mature over time, meaning that the colors settle, and they get better, be it in colors or brightness, I'm not sure.

The S5, as every Amoled screen does create oversaturated colors, they do degrade as time passes and there is also the burn in issue along with that.

But! You can set it to, I don't know what's it called, ?natural? mode, that displays the colors accurately, and quite precisely at that.

And let's be honest here, no one buys an Amoled phone screen only to put it to natural, they like their colors to POP...

Yep, the G3 is bright enough for outdoor use, as I've put mine in direct sunlight and browsed the Web "easily", no real issues there, I'd say like most phones.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Garruk:
I upgraded to a G3 a month ago. My previous phone was a Galaxy Note 2. One of the main reasons why I didn't chose for a Samsung phone is the heavy usage of touch wizz on the system. The G3 is a great phone. Fast, good camera and great design. I recommend the G3. ;)
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lord2802:
Just a random dude passing by :D

Here's my opinion on this topic. I've been using my note 2 for about year and a half now. The phone is great and just keeps getting better, but I've decided that my next phone won't be this big. It's not bugging me that much but when I try to browse or do simple stuff with one hand I constantly have to "adjust" the phone. That being said I agree with marimo there that G3 is the most charismatic phone this year, but I'd definitely go with the m8 because it's just a brilliant phone in every possible way~ (with an OK camera). I would recommend you Note4 because it will probably be the phone of the year, but I like changes and I wouldn't buy another touchwizz phone at this point.

I hope that I managed to mess up your decision even more because that's just fun :D

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BreakingVZW:
I've owned galaxy s3 and s4. I moved on from the s4 to the G2 and never looked back. I got the G3 when it was released and can honestly say it's the best phone I've ever owned. LG knows what they're doing and you can tell they really listened to their customers and reviews with the software overhaul. The downside to the G3 atm is (unless you have T-Mobile or international) all we have is root. Now, let me say that even with only have root and xposed this device is insane. Once you greenify and Titanium freeze bloat the battery lasts a long time. I'm a heavy user throughout my day with downloading movies, internet, watching YouTube and sports highlights and have my screen at 55% with autobrightness active. I get an average of 5 and 1/2 sot and usually still have 40-50% battery left after I work 8 hours. I highly recommend this device. The screen is gorgeous. Its a very responsive device.

There are a few bugs that need a software update fix (aux/headphone system confusion - the device sometimes has issue deciding if the device is an aux cable or headphones. Sometimes it will connect and disconnect. Annoying.). There are some chrome issues as well but those seem to be chrome bugs and not G3 bugs.

I can't recommend this device enough. If you want to read something funny check out MacWorld's G3 v iPhone 6 comparison article. They admit the G3 is head and shoulders better and actually end the article with "which doesn't matter bc you're all buying iPhone 6 no matter what we say." made me laugh.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redeyss:
Yeah, I agree with Breaking, G3 is a great phone and after rooting, debloating, and tweaking, it's even better! My battery has settled and improved and the camera is insanely good. It heats up a little at times but clear recents and give it a quick rest is what I usually do, and never over 110f so not that hot.

I came from G2, Moto X, S4, Note 3 and Lumia windows phones before that and the G2 and G3 are my overall favs!

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] u4icpain:
I'm sitting here with my old ass s4 which has a busted front glass piece but I did surgury on it and placed some tempered glass for a gangster (i've seen some harsh times) look.

In all seriousness I'm not liking my g3. I went from s3 --> s4 ---> g3

Phone is; fast, nice screen (although I prefer the color of an amolded OVER this QHD stuff. And for some reason my viper audio sounds wayyy better on my s4 mdk with hyperdrive running.

1. I prefer the smaller s4 size with better color OVER the big g3 high res screen

2. Sound mods sound better on my s4 and I'm big into music

3. MDK bootloader means I could flash flash away. This g3 is so locked down its not even funny

4. I honestly miss the TW interface and how well samsung has integrated their software with the Android OS. It just seems to flow better in terms of galary sync, contact sync, (g3 contact sync screwed up my contact list somehow)

I find too often I am on the verge of dropping this phone as I reach across to hit buttons on the far side of the screen. Call me lazy but I could simply navigate and swype type faster on my s4 due to the smaller screen. was nice

If you dig movies and reading, g3 is nice, but colors are bland and poop. yes. poop. amen. goodnight
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarimoMusicHead:
Well that is what anyone coming from an Amoled would say. Aaand should not be accounted for!

My brother also prefers Amoled ones, while I prefer Ips panels.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lord2802:
Indeed I prefer Amoled panels, but HTC One, Z3 and even LG G2 have better panels than the g3. This is a fact. I'm not saying that G3 's panel is bad, but it just lacks compared to other flagships. It's just like iPhone 5 camera is weaker compared to most android flagships but it's still a very good one.

The bottom line is, G3 's screen is good but not among the best.

"The music is different here."
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] katsika:
If you like the heartbeat sensor and the fact that s5 is unbreakable go for the s5 (take a look here at 05:00 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKkJdstQKsM compared to a g3 drop test 01:15 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1kVNo6ars8)

If you want a fast phone and the best camera ever created for a smartphone go for the Z2.

G3 might has the best screen. 1440p is quite impressive as a feature but take in mind that if you put a g3 with a 1080 smartphone side by side and you play the same video ( a 4k at 60fps) the difference isnt so noticeable, the video looks the same at both smartphones. Also i dont know your opinion about flashing custom roms etc but take in mind that the G3 is heavy loaded with useless bloatware (compared to a Z2 which comes almost clean) plus LG keeps its bootloader locked. So until a way is found to unlock or bypass the bootloader (if they ever find one) you either have to manually debloat (which may affect the stock rom's stability) or you have to get used to a heavy loaded phone which is hiding its true potentials.

Finally every smartphone gets hot at some point . I dont have particular problems with my G3 but i remember my tablet was feeling like it was going to catch fire when i was playing plants vs zombies 2.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nbeebe24:
If you're into larger screens you may be better off waiting for the note 4. It has a better build quality then all the others mentioned, an excellent screen (rated the best amoled screen out), and a great performer as well. Development doesn't look like its going too rapidly in the LG forums, so it all depends on what you're looking for. You can always buy your first choice and test it out in the return period and see what you like/dislike about the phone. The only really way to know is get your hands on it.
