I've tired quite a few different AOSP roms with quite a few different devices over the years and I've always had the best overall experience with CyanogenMod in terms of stability and features. That's why I trust them.
[Sprint LG G3] gaspricessuckk:
I loved my nexus I had last year after I smashed my s4. Rooted them both and got 4.4.2 on it since it was stuck on 4.1.2. I hope after a few weeks to switch to the n6 after people don't like it. Offer my g3 for trade plus cash. I've been watching this phone for a year. Even though the higher end android phones are coming out next year.
[Sprint LG G3] Mahapederdon:
I don't think I'm gonna switch cause this phone has potential. But one of the phones on my contract is up for an upgrade so I might have to get one. Any idea what these cost on contract?
[Sprint LG G3] alexguitar:
I don't think any carrier has announced an on contract price as of yet...
[Sprint LG G3] Spaniard85:
Very likely around $199 on contract. Every other device we sell at $649msrp winds up that. (Sprint sales rep here). I'm going to try to get one as a demo device, otherwise I'll scheme to get one on my own. I'm pretty excited at the thought of AOSP/CM for the G3 though.
[Sprint LG G3] gaspricessuckk:
I thought sprint employee's weren't allowed to hack their phones?
[Sprint LG G3] MBCO:
Why would you think that? Sprint is one of the carriers that really don't question rooting or custom made firmwares. I know a few Sprint employee's who root their phones.

I had to take my S3 in a few times when I first got it due to charging issues and it was rooted with a AOSP rom on it. I told them and they said "That's okay, doesn't matter"

Of course it's pending on store location and employee.

I'm in Kansas City, MO and a lot of the stores are good about it.

I actually need to take my G3 in because it's getting HORRIBLE data strength.
[Sprint LG G3] Spaniard85:
Most don't, but ultimately there isn't any penalty I'd we do. At most it's a voided warranty etc., much like we'd do with a customer. My assistant manager even has a rooted HTC M8.
[Sprint LG G3] aheeejd:
I came from the N5 to the G3, & love it. The main thing I missed was being able to flash something other then aosp. Don't get me wrong, I love aosp & can't wait to flash it to G3. But my first rooted phone was HTC Evo 4G, so I could flash aosp or sense. Then came SG Note 2, & could flash aosp & then TouchWiz if I wanted. So with Nexus 5, just aosp got boring to me. Plus, coming from Note 2 I hated the N5 5" screen. N6 with a 6" screen sounds awesome though. But 6 days ago I bought Nexus 10 so...... Anyway, enjoy the 6 as I'm sure you will. You will most likely miss this camera....

I am going back and forth on what to do. I love the g3 but have zero patience and want 5.0 now.

Ordered a N6 yesterday, im keeping the g3 for a time, lets see how it goes.

Lucky
[Sprint LG G3] 2fastkuztoms:
Twice, i was waiting for the 64gb, one white for me and a blue for a friend, but after looking at the white 32gb, the add to cart appeared, i added it to cart and then i go for the blue one, after that the rest was a nightmare like empty cart, or item out stock for over an hour and half later, i was frustrated but kept trying and at 2:35pm a blue 32gb appeared and in less than 10 seconds i buyed 2 of them.
[Sprint LG G3] JustusIV:
so it wa you who bought the whole stock of them. lol
[Sprint LG G3] 2fastkuztoms:
Lol i think i am one of them.
[Sprint LG G3] :
Ordered my Nexus 6 a few minutes ago. I've loved the G3 but I've lost pictures saved to SD card twice now and I'm tired of the touch screen unresponsiveness. Thanks to all of you here! :)
[Sprint LG G3] meyerweb:
No one forced you to use an SD card. :confused: And I automatically back up all my photos to the cloud, in addition to storing them on the SD card.
[Sprint LG G3] :
I know no one forced me to use an SD card, silly. However, when a device has a feature, a user expects that feature to work. No? Luckily I had most of the important ones backed up to LG cloud. But a loss is a loss nonetheless. The touch screen unresponsiveness is my biggest gripe anyway. It seems to be getting worse almost daily. No matter, my nexus should be in my hands in a few days. Again, overall, I was mostly in love with this phone but as a former N5 user, I'm a nexus fanboy at heart. Nothing but love for you guys here and I wish you all the best development wise! [emoji2]
[Sprint LG G3] Mahapederdon:
Let us know how the n6 is. Was thinking about buying one to play with. Still love my g3 though.
[Sprint LG G3] :
Absolutely will do.
[Sprint LG G3] JustusIV:
The N6 has been a major failure of a launch.... really sad...

I am just starting to see AOSP for my G3 which has me rethinking everything.
[Sprint LG G3] :
I ordered on Sprint launch day and their website is still telling me 3 to 7 business days but no tracking number yet. I've been following the shipping thread over in the N6 forum and I agree it looks like some people are getting hosed a bit. The 64 gig white model from GPS especially.

Edit:

Got my tracking number today. [emoji41]
[Sprint LG G3] :
So I got my Nexus 6 a few hours ago and I'm seriously impressed thus far. Sooooo smooth. Big and beautiful. Still getting set up but wow...just wow.
[Sprint LG G3] Mahapederdon:
I'm not switching but I'm gonna cheat on my g3 with the nexus. I ordered one so one day soon I'll have both.
[Sprint LG G3] robber:
Lol, I thought the same and then I got the nexus in my hands. G3 went up on swappa the next day.
[Sprint LG G3] bonebeatz1234:
Well I been using the nexus for a week my thoughts coming from a g3. I notice the nexus screen is not as crisp as the lg g3 I put my qhd wallpapers I used on my g3 on the nexus and noticed a noticeable difference. The nexus looked good but the g3 screen was better. I miss all the little things the lg g3 did on the software side. But I do like the nexus size feels better in hand than the note 3 I had . and the phone feels thin and not as big as the lg gflex. I can use it with one hand fine but any bigger I couldn't . fits pockets fine even skinny jeans lol. If your on the fence about switching because of screen size do it. If you just wanna upgrade because of something else keep your g3. I miss mine but it's still in the household. If I had to pick again I would of kept the g3 but time will tell if the nexus grow on me.

Still haven't had a chance to buy one :(
[Sprint LG G3] geebee1932:
I made the jump mostly because I am a huge fan of the Nexus phones. I agree that the screen is not quite as crisp as the G3. The one think I hated about the G3 was the camera. It took forever to take a picture. I was never sure if I should touch the screen or the bottom of the screen to take the shot. Seemed to take a long time to focus as well. I really like the stock android better than any OEM skin no matter how minimal. The battery on the N6 seems to be better as well.
[Sprint LG G3] Mahapederdon:
I have both and I love them both. I think once the g3 has stable 5.0 it's gonna be bad ass. The g3 is a great phone. I'm using the nexus atm but will go back and forth for something to play with.
[Sprint LG G3] JustusIV:
I just got mine in the mail on 12-31-14 and so far i am extremely happy. Although i was happy with the LG G3 also.

Its the only phone in the history of smart phones i stayed on stock. I have nothing but nice things to say. However i like the Dev seen with the nexus 6 and am a fan of larger phones. My body is ready for the nexus 7 phone edition :P

It seems like there are a number of us that have both the G3 and the N6 but if anyone has any questions i would be happy to answer them.

Just quote me on this for me to see it right away or i will check back every few days.
[Sprint LG G3] MonkeyTime:
Evening Justus,

I'm ready to leave Verizon for Sprint and have narrowed down a phone choice to these two (because of the lack of the Z3).

I'm a little nervous about the size of the N6 even though there isn't a huge difference, how do they compare in hand? I'm coming from am S4 which is a great size for me even though I don't have small hands. I can't find an N6 in person anywhere to hold so it's a bit difficult to tell if I'd like it.

The other three questions I'd have for you are call quality, battery and camera. How do you think they each stack up in these areas.

Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

MT

[Sprint LG G3] JustusIV:
The N6 feels WAY bigger then the G3. I am a fan of bigger though. To me the G3 was super easy to hold and the N6 is not, but the screen size upgrade is worth that to me.

As for the follow up 3.

I will admit i have made like 1 phone call on my device in the 5 days i have had it. Who uses phones for phone features anyways. :P

The battery....... I swear to god there was something wrong with my G3 when it came to battery life. It was worse then my orignal Galaxy nexus. I could drain that thing in like 2 hours. there were days i had to charge twice. So big win here for the N6 on battery... Your mileage my very though, but to me it feels like double battery. Also i have been a big fan of the turbo charger. I plug it in for just a few minutes before i head out the door and i always get about 20 more % then i am expecting when i pull it off.

Finally for the camera i have taken 1 picture on new years. I went to a theme party of a 1920 speakeasy. I did nothing but take a super quick pic out of box... as i only had the phone for a few hours at that point. you can judge yourself. Had some blur on the close movement.

[Sprint LG G3] MonkeyTime:
Thanks, seems like you're happy you made the switch. I think if I went with the N6, the only thing I'd miss is mhl or hdmi mini out. That and the size lol.

The size is pushing me towards the G3, just a bit worried the lollipop update with screw with root and the bl.

Thanks and good luck with yours,

Doing things a chromecast can't handle?

That is something you just don't have to worry about with a nexus :)
[Sprint LG G3] MonkeyTime:
I wouldn't say can't handle, just not as efficiently as a wired connection. I put a Pioneer AppRadio in my car, that with some after market software fully mirrors the phone with touch control. You can use Cromecast, but you have to deal with the bootup time every time you start the car, with a wired connection it's only a couple of seconds and it's on, plus you get charging. Just not as convenient.

Sent from my Echoing S4!
[Sprint LG G3] JustusIV:
Oh wow.... You have a guide or anything?
[Sprint LG G3] MonkeyTime:
The app is called appradio unchained reloaded. There's a thread here on xda about it and another for people using chromecast as well if you want to look into it.

Full mirroring with full touch control on the radio is something I've gotten used to and wouldn't give up now!

[Sprint LG G3] JustusIV:
One other thing about the N6 is the screen brightness. The G3 was unusable outside. The N6 I keep about half... Way better!
[Sprint LG G3] meyerweb:
If you want to be rooted, do NOT take the lollipop OTA. It will remove root, and currently the only way to get root back is to use Flashtool to revert to a rootable KitKat ROM, then reboot.
[Sprint LG G3] MonkeyTime:
Thanks, I kinda figured that, from the reading I've done, you already can't directly root the latest v6, you revert back to v4 and upgrade an already rooted rom.

Just seems like the best, non-phablet out right now and it's even pretty big.......

Sent from my Echoing S4!
[Sprint LG G3] meyerweb:
Yep, I feel the same way. I don't think I could comfortably use anything bigger. I tried a Note, and it's just a bit too big, and too uncomfortable, for my hands.
[Sprint LG G3] wojo797:
Sprint only offers a 32gb N6, correct?
[Sprint LG G3] MonkeyTime:
Yes, I don't think they carry the 64gb version.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] shadowman280x:
With Virgin Mobile rolling out with the Sprint Galaxy S5 for Virgin Mobile I can't see why people would pay $200 for the phone with a $75-$120 monthly bill when you can get the phone for $479 through VirginMobileUSA.com and pay no contract for $35 a month for unlimited. $45 a month for high data usage users.

Im expecting a HUGE Virgin Mobile based Community for the Samsung Galaxy S5

Really need ROM developers to roll out with a ROM specific or get a flashable .zip going to fix the potential APN settings when flashing a Sprint ROM.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] berzerkus:
I have installed a half dozen different Sprint Roms on my VM S5 with no issues. Is this necessary, would be my only question.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] shadowman280x:
What was your steps...you had to change your APN and whatnot?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] dd99xx:
I haven't done anything fancy with custom ROMs. I have had no problem using the official Sprint ROMs, including an upgrade to NE5. I've mainly made sure to do nandroid backups via Philz recovery before attempting anything, just in case.

I haven't had to mess with APN settings, but they're available at Settings -> More Networks -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names, and can be altered there manually. I've written them down so far just in case, but that's all that's been necessary.

In general, the Sprint stuff has been fine for me, and I haven't had need for anything specific to the VM version.

It might be nice if there was a backup of the original VM ROM just in case someone needs to start from scratch... but I'm not sure anything else is necessary right now. I'm not an expert on this stuff, but for this phone, there appear to be minimal differences from the contract version. Perhaps the boot animation, APNs, a couple VM apps on the phone... but that seems to be about it.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] shadowman280x:
Thanks, your like the first post on seen on here that confirms what I've been looking for. Installing Philz now. Good to know that you said i can do a factroy official recovery from sprint if i need to upgrade and whatnot.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] d99x:
I don't know if a factory official recovery from a Sprint ROM would work or not. It would be nice to have an official VM ROM for such things.

I just made a nandroid backup immediately after flashing Philz (and rooting), and didn't have a problem recovery flashing the NE5 zip on top of things. I haven't messed with any other fancy customization stuff.

There's some discussion of VM here and there in the Sprint rooting thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2737724

I confirmed that both Sprint and VM had the same phone model number (SM-G900P) and same firmware (G900PVPU1AND2) before messing with anything. I've been fine with Philz 6.57.8 for recovery. CF-AutoRoot worked painlessly (but tripped Knox).

I tried some of the NI3 ROM stuff (which is not officially released), and had problems with services crashing, as others described as well. I reverted to the backup I made before messing with it. I wouldn't suggest wasting your time on it.

Again, I'm not one of the experts on this stuff, and don't know that a Sprint ROM would work for a full factory reset. Be careful messing with things. I'd have had problems if I didn't do a nandroid backup before messing with the unofficial NI3, for example.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] d99x:
For what it's worth, the current official VM ROM (NE5) appears to be at the following (remove the spaces from the links):

w w w . sammobile. com/firmwares/download/36696/G900PVPU1ANE5_G900PSPT1ANE5_VMU.zip

If you want to check it against the Sprint to see if they're 100% identical, the Sprint NE5 is here:

w w w . sammobile.com/firmwares/download/31891/G900PVPU1ANE5_G900PSPT1ANE5_SPR.zip
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] berzerkus:
Never had to altar APN's either (as the other poster above said). I'm currently using MOAR 2.1 without any ill effect. I have Philz recovery as well. I updated to NE5 using the sprint version, and it did have the activation app after installing, so I'm guessing its the same rom for VM and Sprint. I'm far from 100% certain though.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] haggard-zero:

i have one in the mail and hope to root install custom recovery and roms and such, had sprint sprint variant now am moving to the virgin mobile one hopefully i can help in some way.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] CCallahan:
Used to be Virgin Mobile customers got low priority on the network behind Sprint customers. Not sure if it is still that way but the speeds were terrible.

Also, I'm only paying $25/month for unlimited all except data. Think unlimited everything is only about $45/month. A lot of peeps can't drop $400+ on a phone. Got my S5 for $100 right after it came out with a contract.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] numus:
Virgin and Boost still get low priority on the Sprint network, granted with Sprint rolling out 1x advanced and allocating more spectrum to LTE the priority may not be as much of a problem as it was in the past (unless a ton of Sprint users are also in your area at the same time).

Hi guys,

i'm sorry if i opened my question in wrong location.

I tried to swap my sd card external for internal in my device, but i don't have success.

I tried using Root External to internal using the following setup:

internal: /mnt/sdcard

external /mnt/sdcard2

device access: /dev/block/vold/179:97

and option: umask=0000

before the kitkat(4.1.2) the process successful .

I list my mount via adb and note that internal is mounted in /storage/emulated/0 and executed manual line on adb:

mount -o remount,rw /

mount -t vfat -o umask=0000 /dev/block/vold/179:97 /mnt/shell/emulated/0

apparently worked, i use "ln -l" on "/mnt/shell/emulated/0" with "root" and list external files, but without "root" not worked.

=/

after, i list "mount" and tried in all mounts that use "/dev/fuse" but not worked.

i modified platform.xml (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2687734) but not worked.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
Guru reset posted by [MENTION=2895182]clsA[/MENTION] should work. What recovery are you using to flash it? Did you check MD5? The nandroid should also do the job but this will not flash stock recovery back like the reset rom. If you want to restore the nandroid backup instead of using the reset rom, you could extract the recovery from cIsA's reset rom and flash it after restoring the backup. Stock recovery for your version is also available here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2545227
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clsA:
The only reason you would get a bootloop is by using an old recovery ...update to TWRP 2.6.3.3 and your be fine.

Someone in the thread also suggested a factory reset after restoring the nandroid.

You pretty well covered it ... I'm betting on an old version of CWM or TWRP was the problem.
