Saw this in Best Buy ad this a.m. Sale starts tomorrow. Vzw, att & Sprint. Darn - I paid $50 for mine.
[Verizon LG G3] JPBeard21:
Are you kidding me?? I just got mine two days ago and paid $50 as well ?
[Verizon LG G3] PhoneBill:
Don't know if it's national or regional. I'm in Baltimore/DC corridor.
[Verizon LG G3] random571:
Yeah, it's a black Friday sale, national pricing. Since I paid $100 in August my only consolation is the free charger and battery promotion they honored me :good: $1 is an awesome deal for this phone. There will be a lot more people joining the party here on XDA pretty soon.
[Verizon LG G3] popi09:
I got mine in thanksgiving day! I'm in Texas btw
[Verizon LG G3] spalding1028:
Just got mine today, plus $150 BB GC since I ported from AT&T and set up new lines on vzw... $150GC/line x 4 lines= $600 GC :D
[Verizon LG G3] nuke235:
Yeah got mine for 50 buck through verizon last night.

Looking forward to this phone.

Hopefully this price drop will increase development for this phone
[Verizon LG G3] droidstyle:
Just picked one up for my brother friday for $1.00. Very nice device all around!!
[Verizon LG G3] brokenartist:
I got mine today at the Verizon store only to come home and see the ad. However I also got the LG 8.3 tablet for free through the promotion. So Im not too upset by it
[Verizon LG G3] Jimi Mack:
I picked mine up last week on the Edge program and with my Corp discounts plus Verizon giving me $15.00 a month towards it I only pay $4.79 a month. Not bad and to still be off contract, plus being able to also upgrade in a year.
[Verizon LG G3] scoobntaz1996:
Picked up my three G3's last week from amazon wireless for only a penny each with a two year contract.
[Verizon LG G3] wrongway213:
So how does this compare to the Galaxy S5 in terms of development? Thinking of making the switch while it's cheap, due for an upgrade in two weeks and I don't think that Verizon is going to include the Nexus 6 in upgrades... hope so but if not thinking about the LG G3. Appears this phone has working AOSP, something the S5 will never have..
[Verizon LG G3] Blindprophet32:
I got the "new" Blaze Red edition for free thanks to the Cyber Monday sale yesterday!! It showed up at the house today so I can't wait to go home and root, TWRP it and enjoy all of it's awesomeness tonight!
[Verizon LG G3] PizzaSauce:
The only reason you won't be able to get the N6 in a couple weeks is because it won't be out for VZ until early 2015.

Personally I got the G3 when it came out by preorder. Loved it a ton. Then I started eyeballing the Note 4 and made the switch.

Just returned my Note 4 because of TouchWiz and now I'm back on the G3

I was able to get the phone for $30 yesterday and received it today in the mail. Got the blaze red model and it's pretty sweet
[Verizon LG G3] halojinx:
I went online and got the red G3's for 3 lines free with $150 credit for each line, thats $450 credit with 25% discount on moto 360 and cases. win! win! Also ordered iflash 3 pack tempered glass screens for $9.99. not bad.
[Verizon LG G3] wrongway213:
do you have any idea when the nexus 6 is supposed to be out for verizon? i can't find any info but i think that's most suited to my needs. i've heard lg is like google in terms of allowing rooting and such though so i dunno
[Verizon LG G3] PizzaSauce:
The Moto rep at work told us early 2015 so that's all that I know. VZ didn't want it competing with the Droid Turbo's launch.
[Verizon LG G3] luland:
anybody bought one recently for $30 with the offer of the free LG Gpad tablet? I can't really find good information on it? Does anyone know if you have to activate the tablet or not?

nevermind: i went through checkout have to activate a new line on tablet which is $10 a month access fee plus another $30 activation fee. deciding whether I want it or not.
[Verizon LG G3] ghodzilla5150:
I picked up a G3 for my daughter last Friday for FREE from Radio Shack. All I had to pay was taxes. She is LOVING the G3 (coming from an HTC EVO on Sprint) all her friends at school (8th grader) love using her phone to take pics.. I have the G3 on Verizon. I also got the LG G Pad 8.3 for free when I got my G3. Having a tablet with a Sim card is actually pretty nice. I take it with me on many occasions and it comes in handy.
[Verizon LG G3] JPBeard21:
Gotta love best buy's price match guarantee :)
[Verizon LG G3] halojinx:
Waited in line for an hour at Besybuy just to be told no price match on phones during black friday/cyber monday. Wasted my time, so I just ordered through phone from verizon, which came out cheaper. Maybe next time Bestbuy, maybe next time.
[Verizon LG G3] ncwildcat:
It's still $1 at best buy..
[Verizon LG G3] halojinx:
I got three g3 free through tele sales, plus they added my discount and $150 credit for 3 lines all at once. Bestbuy told me for discounts and credits I would still have to call Verizon. To top it off I ended with rude customer service, rushing me and asking for sensitive/personal info in line around other customers. Sales rep was also busy talking/texting on his phone, messing around with his moto360 while im sitting in front of him! I guessed I lucked out. But the phone prices are actually good deals, went in on a wrong day i guess.
[Verizon LG G3] vincey2kr1:
Coming over from Sprint can't decide on the g3 or note 4. Can't you essentially get the g3 for free pay 60 month for 1 gig get the 150 dollar credit after a couple of months for importing a line then just cancel and pay the 350 cancel fee and keep the phone?
[Verizon LG G3] taz1458:
Just ordered a g3 Friday and got a free gpad 8.3 too. Coming from a locked up S4, I can't wait to give this thing a try.

Will this work with CM11s?
[Xperia SP General] Suriteka:
I'll try it in 30 minutes.

I think that's compatible. But don't do it now, we don't know. :/
[Xperia SP General] yaman noruie:
yes it will

i've install it in my XPERIA SP and It's working really Fast So :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
[Xperia SP General] rdlegy:
I tried all cm11 based roms and roms that are not cm11 based, but are again 4.4.x. All of them were fast, but laggy and not smooth. Will these mods in the thread you made fix the problem and make the phone smooth as 4.3 or even better? Do I need williams kernel, because I tried it and it doesn't improve performance or smoothness. Can't I install mod 2 and 3 without william's kernel?
[Xperia SP General] Bruno_Puzoni:
I need a decryption key to download the GPU performance booster.
[Xperia SP General] yaman noruie:
My dear Friend

these mods will fix the problem and make the phone as smooth as 4.3 ,if you really don't want to flash williams kernel you can just skip it

but i think it does improve performance and smoothness especially if you put your Governor : lagfree

and I/O schedulers : cfq :laugh:
[Xperia SP General] yaman noruie:
just download the zip and open cwm and mount system then flash the zip

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liongame:
Yeah i know, the same old problem but bear with me guys. :(

So i use Carbon..latest version (11/19) and i've recently decided to try these 2 kernels: CroPol kernel and PA kernel by tenshi and so far i've noticed no change in battery drain...it drains VERY fast!

So my questions to you guys and i'm gonna number them so they are easier to follow:

1- Is there something wrong with Carbon these last several updates?

I've bought a new battery and nothing changed. Should i migrate to a different rom?

2- Which kernel is best suited for Carbon or for S3 mini in general? and can i undervolt it?

3- I'm a super heavy mobile data/ Wifi user so what's the best governor/schedule combo to use to save battery...i dont mind it being slow as long as it saves battery. I use Powersave/noop all the time but still no use.

Please help!! :crying:

Thank you very much. :)
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H3llsing87:
same Problem :/

I got the same problem since using the new Carbon version in KK 4.4.4.

nothing helps until now.

what i tried so far:

- formattig everything in EXT4 instead of f2fs

- factory reset

- flashing Stock rom

- flashing cyanogenMod 11 from novafusion.

- using battery calibration

what i noticed in Carbon:

-taking pictures with flashlight were killing my phone, restart with 30% less battery power. this bug appeared when using f2fs formatting but not ext4.

what i noticed in cm11:

- after normal restart also 20% less battery power.

what i noticed in all roms i tried after the bug appeared:

- when battery has around 20% battery phone will just shutdown and restart with 1% battery :/

can anybody help ?
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wtx1033:
Same here with but with random boots! (see the thread)
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h4wkst3p:
Same here after using f2fs on AOSPA and CM11. Now I'm on EXT4 + Stock Rom and I've got 10-20-30% battery loss after reboot.

However, battery indicator is wrong, but battery will last as if the percentage were still as before the reboot.

Also getting huge "Android OS" battery drain with no explanation from BBS

There's really no way to revert battery fuel gauge accuracy to stock behaviour?
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H3llsing87:
Today i noticed also the random reboots.

When the phone was charging over the day and i tried to open SMS or any application, it suddenly reboots with 20% less battery power.

i think this bug is caused of the f2fs patition. i will try to flash a pitfile and stock again. the last time i didnt use a pit file.

i will let you know what happend ;)
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h4wkst3p:
I was going to try that too, let's hope that it works :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wtx1033:
this has most probably nothing to do with F2FS or any file system. i am using ext4 and i have the same issue.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h4wkst3p:
Flashed stock rom with .pit file and nothing changed

Also I'm sure this has nothing to do with battery health, since battery lasts the same as before
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wtx1033:
hopefully tomorrow i am getting my new battery and i'll see if it is a physical battery problem (mine is a year old). because on slimkat, carbon and cyanogenmod there is this problem (and stock rom as you have shown here). if this ain't a physical battery problem, may god help us :) (i'll be forced to buy a new device)
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h4wkst3p:
Mine is one year old too, as well as the ones from other s3 mini users here on xda that have had this problem... let me know if it's worth it! I'm really getting crazy on this one...
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H3llsing87:
nothing changed with pit file flash :(

i noticed:

no installing of new apps (SD-Card interactions) except of wakelock detector

just using WIFI, G3 SMS and Phone

was the behaviour normal! around 10% battery loss in ~5 hours

But when i pressed restart to reboot the phone!

it Crashes continuesly and battery jumped to 20%.

so the phone is doing something in the bootup process, which has a huge battery drain!

ill try today evening to flash previous CM with f2fs. I don't think that the battery is damaged. otherwise the batteryloss would be consistent.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h4wkst3p:
Ok guys I'm not taking credits of this method to see if something's wrong with your battery but this is it

Take out your battery and place it ona flat surface, then spin it horizontally on both sides, if on one of the two sides it spins and doesn't get stopped by friction then the problem is that the battery is going to inflate and this means the battery is going to die

This is my case, so I'm gonna buy another original battery and let you know

If it isn't the problem for you, then it's a software problem with partitions
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wtx1033:
oh yeah. my old battery was definitely swollen. not much swelling can be seen without taking the battery out but one can see it clearly on a flat surface. it spins right round :)
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wtx1033:
with the new battery

it's still early to tell whether it was definitely a battery problem or not for me, but it surely looks that way. here are my stats after somewhat heavy* first usage:

so, do the "battery spin test" on a table like [MENTION=5113433]h4wkst3p[/MENTION] suggested. if it spins, no good i am afraid :(

*: by heavy i mean setting up the system after a clean flash. y'know installing all the apps etc.

i offline charged the new battery to 95% and the images show the remaining amount.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h4wkst3p:
this looks like it's totally fixed omg

The reboot with drop should be because of reboot after installing apps (generating dalvik etc), right?
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wtx1033:
actually, no :) it was after i installed all the apps i then installed adaway & xprivacy— and both need a reboot.

as i said, i first topped the battery till ~95% by offline charging. plugged out the USB cable. booted into recovery, wiped and flashed. then booted into clean slimkat and start using it. all on battery power! :laugh:
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h4wkst3p:
This is actually awesome! :D, when I'll get my new original battery I'll let you know if this fixed my device too :fingers-crossed:

I totally forgot how much amazing this device's battery was before this problem :cool:
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H3llsing87:
alright you got me!

I've tried everything! flashing stock,pit,cm10.2, cm11 newer revision, deleting batterystats.bin and dockbatterystats.bin. reloading several times, but only got depressions.

Maybe there was a strange bug during the first flash progress, which destroyed the battery ?

Because we flashed all the same CM11 based version, and it killed the batteries, which was running excellent before :/

i'll order a new one now =) did you buy the original one? or another with more mA ?
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wtx1033:
original one...and after the second charge it holds on standby quite nicely ;)
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h4wkst3p:
I finally made it to get the original Samsung battery for Christmas from Amazon

This is my partial usage with a reboot at 65%

After the reboot it got to 66%

This is great, so it definitely was the old bad battery

I don't like it's UI.

My first watchfaces for Facer :)

White:

http://facerepo.com/app/faces/details/classic-white-149fc055c0f

Black:

http://facerepo.com/app/faces/details/classic-black-149fc2c4ac8

Update 1.0:

Some background tweaks..

Update 1.1:

Added white watchface with dimmed Battery Percentage. (only in dimmed state with screen on.)

Added black watchface with dimmed Battery Percentage. (only in dimmed state with screen on.)

You can replace the Battery Percentage with anything you like, and add more!

Update 1.2:

White watchface: made black stripes more black and and tweaked 12 o'clock sign for dimmed state.

Update 1.3:

Changed arrows into black stripes.

Update 1.4:

Changed the white dimmed state to the black image background.

Update 1.5:

Normal state with current temp, weather and weather icon.

And more visible and modern ambient mode.. Also better with cards notifications and nice black background..

Please let me know what you think... The arrows come from another watchface.

I prefer the white one, the black is an inverted and little bit tweaked white face.

With the black one, in dimmed state, notifications are a bit easier to read.

Unfortunately Facer isn't showing the notifications as on the stock watchfaces at the moment..
[Sony Smartwatch 3] N1XM1X:
Love the white one.. think it's gonna be on my wrist for a while!

Thanks for the time and effort you have put into this!

suggestion.. mute symbol, even if just when dimmed.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] djgodlike:
Changed the white dimmed state to the black image background. Now you can see the mute and other icons..

I think its not possible to change the icon/card colors from wear within facer.

Thanks for the feedback!
[Sony Smartwatch 3] N1XM1X:
Yeah, love that little tweek.. a lot easier to see when dimmed and those icons now visible.. great stuff!!

some times takes a few seconds to change when dimmed.. but not that I'm staring at my new watch all of the time ;)

Thanks dude!
