[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lgg3d852g:
Hi, I'm the (happy) owner of a Lg g3 d852G. For those who don't know, it is the Canadian's variant of Videotron(my operator).

I discovered this forum, which is really great: lots of tips, nice tweaks etc... However I discovered that even in the Canadian's forum, there were no talk about my G3's variant.

As you certainly understood in my title, I have only two roms currently supported by my g3: the stock one from Videotron, and Cloudy rom (after changing some things in build.prop as it doesn't truly support d852g).

I understand that my G3's variant may be really minor, by its amount of owners, for the devs, explaining why there aren't true work on this variant. So my questions are: Is there a possibility to use d852(or other variants) roms on my d852g (I tried with Aospa for d852, thinking that there were no true differences between the d852 and d852g, but there are...). And are there other roms for my g3's variant of variant?

I am desesperate, help me xda ;)

I figured the knowledgeable people here could point me to apps (that require root or not) that do things that xposed used to do but now can't:

•Slide on notification bar for brightness (not an actual slider just able to slide)

•lockscreen app targets

•edit quick toggles in any way shape or form

•edit nav bar height

•change recents button into a menu button and remove three dot menus

•advanced power menu options

any info is appreciated!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Badd_blood:
Most of the things you mentioned have to be a system modification not an app. Check out the lollipop custom ROMs, some of them have a few of the features you desire. It might be a few months to get Xposed working if possible even. You could always revert to 4.4.4 too.

Xposed is just so good, it became a must in my phone. I want so many features from it and its modules too

I search for xposed at least 3 times per day and i didnt find any useful information but a reply of rov89 a month ago saying it was going to be hard to merge xposed to lollipop because of new ART runtime. So i find this post very useful as we can share temporary patches until xposed is released for lollipop.

* Intelli3G: Your internet is set to EDGE while phone is locked, but when you unlock it you get 3G/4G (until you lock)

* Lots of gravitybox features:

-change battery icon and clock position in the info bar ( percentage + circle battery!)

-flash activated when you pulse the lockscreen for 3secs (stupid ye but very useful for me)

* Burnt toast: that was so cool (show app icon in toast--> superSU permissions)

*App settings: so i can put safari in immersive mode

Cant remember more at the moment but if you know any app with similar features post them here please

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndrasLOHF:
You know if Xposed doesn't come back I am kinda okay with it. Towards the end of Kitkat it seemed like any really useful app that came out needed Xposed to run. It was like as if app creators ran straight towards Xposed instead of using different methods. I know for some things you needed to be able to hack further than root allows but I would guess that a few Xposed modules could have achieved the same result through different means. I'm probably wrong though.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] bat0nas:
Hi,

Just wondering if you notice any difference watching 1080p or 720p movies on your phone?

Of course screen is even bigger than fullhd.

But stil interesting does it worth copying 8GB files to my phone or not? Processing bigger files battery will suffer as well.

What resolution movies or TV series do you watch with Note 4?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] couragedragon:
Interesting question. I think in terms of CPU usage and storage, bitrate is more important than resolution.

I think for CPU I would think it's marginal, but would love to see some tests on this.

I'll probably stick with above average 720 just for storage considerations. I don't watch that many movies on phone, but that could change with my first phablet.

|> sent from deep inside a Verizon Note 4 <|
[Galaxy Note 4 General] POLO_i780:
Loads of HD720P vids and movies on mine, and they look great, got some HD1080P which looks more detailed and 2 4K vids, those look extremely realistic.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Trinatek:
It would make sense that the higher the resolution the better the picture, even with a ~5" screen. I mean, have you looked at the way your photos look on your screen? Beautiful.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] bat0nas:
Of course it makes sense.

But maybe 8gb fullhd movie doesnt look so much better than 720p 2GB file of the same movie.

So I want to know have any of you really tested that.

It also impactsco the SD card size to choose.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Trinatek:
Well I was addressing this question. And the answer I was trying to give you is: of course there are noticeable differences between 1080p, 720p and 4K quality, on the Note 4.

I'm sure you could have guessed this, an 8GB full HD movie file is not going to look "so much better" than a 720p 1.5GB movie file. But going back to my first point, of course there is a noticeable difference -- a noticeable difference. But I mean, it really comes down to your preference then doesn't it?

Summary:

4k video on your phone is gonna look better than 1080p.

1080p video on your phone is gonna look better than 720p.

The higher the resolution, the bigger the file.

Whether you feel the better quality vs file size is worth it on a 6" screen is up to you, so on and so forth.

You need to form your own opinion and/or choice.

Me personally? I go with the 1080p. I'll sacrifice some of my 64GB SD card storage on movie files since I delete the movies after I watch them anyway. The screen's too nice for me not to. Again, that's just me.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Teardrop45:
Pick up an OTG cable ..save ur movies on a hard disk and use that to watch ur movies without worrying about ur phone storage
[Galaxy Note 4 General] bat0nas:
How otg cable is related to how good movies look on Note4 screen?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Trinatek:
I sort of wonder how that would affect battery life. The earliest portable hard drives used to require separate AC adapters. More modern ones have been able to eliminate the need for the AC adapter, but it sort of seems like they still draw a good amount of power to spin the disk inside.

Summary:

The higher the resolution, the better the picture.

The higher the resolution, the larger the video file.

The larger the video file, the less storage you have on your phone for other things.

So, what Teardrop suggested is to buy an on the go adapter and with that, carry a portable hard drive with you.

With the high capacity of storage in a portable hard drive, you can have as large of video files as you want.

(I'm not a fan of this suggestion).
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Teardrop45:
yes it does affect the battery ...i have a Tab S hooked up in car and i use it to watch movies and i noticed on the Tab S the battery consumption is almost double planning to buy this LAVA SimulCharge USB 1-port Adapter for Samsung Galaxy Tab 4/S/PRO/Note - Model TL-002 (Micro USB OTG Host & Charge) hopefully then i dont have to worry about battery life
[Galaxy Note 4 General] huxley309:
You can buy an otg y cable, and just hook a small battery bank to it, just to save your phone.

Or why not just go mad on micro sd cards, you can buy otg card readers that work well.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Trinatek:
I'm definitely more of a fan of this idea. Buy a larger SD card or if you need, even two). Put your video files on that if you're gonna go somewhere where you'll want to kill some time with some movies/videos. Who honestly is going to want to keep their movie files on their phone after they've already watched it? That just seems silly to me *shrug*
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Sean Z:
Dude... You can watch 4k video on this phone? I'm so excited right now. Gonna download some random 4k video to try this out lolol

[Galaxy Note 4 General] huxley309:
Not quite, it's a 2560×1440 putting it Inbetween 4k and 1080p.

It should be called a wqhd more than anything.

Well, my first thread in the forum. I bought Lenovo A606, which was actually released last month. There isn't much information on the web about rooting that device.

I just want to get the USB audio recording application work properly with my new phone and my audio interface (Focusrite Scarlett 2i2), if it's possible.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] MontyBurns:
Hello everybody

I'm using a T-Mobile MDA with a Radio ROM Version of 3.23.00.

I've got the problem of too much GPRS connections.

I wrote a little software (C#) which opens a connection into the internet and contacts a server. The data transferred contains informations about the current IP the radio received from my provider. I can see that the IP changes every 10 to 30 minutes (in steps of 10 minutes).

My question: does anyone know of any bug within the radio unit or its ROM which can be responsible for that amount of connections (about 25 to 30 connections per day)?

Thank you very much in advance.

Monty

EDIT (19.02.2007): Is there a possibility that the device itself turns off the phone module after an unused period? Does anyone of you know something about the reliability of the coorperation between the MDA I and GPS receivers?

So, my partner bought the Vivo X3L when we were in China based on the recommendation of the shop keeper (we would have googled it but it's a total ***** to get past the great firewall of china sometimes) but it's running on TDD 3G/ 4G. Store keeper was not very knowledgeable about network differences as it turns out, and we did not suspect anything since we managed to use the 4G network in China on the X3L. Our home country, Singapore, uses FDD network and we only found out it was incompatible when we got back to Singapore. When we pop a sim card in, it only works with 2G. Right now it's just sitting at home unused.

Any recommended site apart from eBay that we can try to sell this phone to an international audience where someone might use it on a TDD network? I ask so as to get our listing on as many places to increase chances of selling it. I tried swappa but I can't find vivo phone models and can't list it.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bojobananas:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r.storm85:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Citizen_Snips:
The OTA's will come one at a time, in order. So if you're on 4.4.2, you will OTA to 4.4.3. From there to 4.4.4 and then finally to 5.0.

Basically, before 5.0 the way OTA's were done is it would check your /system files and match them up with what is supposed to be there. If it's good to go, the OTA will install. So the 4.4.3 update is looking specifically for 4.4.2 files. If it matches and you update the 4.4.4 will look for 4.4.3 files. [MENTION=2872010]rootSU[/MENTION] can explain in better depth how the process actually works and what's changed with 5.0. :)
