Hi all,

I know flash isn't supported by newer android devices anymore but I am running a Toshiba Thrive AT100 that has ICS and the latest adobe flash.

If I am on redditisfun app or firefox or the built in browser and get to a flash video only half of it will show.

I was wondering if anyone knows a fix for this issue :confused: My device is rooted. idk if that helps.

I had a JB custom rom before this... It was slower but did not have this issue.

[XDA Assist] Darth:
Hi,

I can't find anything relevant on XDA for your device and issue. I will leave this to you to decide, but you can post your question here in your device section,

> Legacy & Low Activity Devices > Toshiba Thrive > Thrive General

But that section is very quiet, you could have better luck asking here,

> Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Also, try other browsers perhaps. I've always found Dolphin the best at handling Flash. Also, you could search Google on other flash versions perhaps to try.

Good luck!
[XDA Assist] enp82003:
Yes my device is old and there is actually another forum that is recommed for it but still dead... I still use it alot and its my first tablet. I think i had the same issue on my htc g2 and i fixed it by dow grading flash to and older version. Ill try that tomorrow and oistthe results. I have tried a few different browsers with no vale. Dolphen is really good. I was hoping for a modified flash apk or something lol.
[XDA Assist] Darth:
Perhaps there's other options, so asking in the threads I suggested might be a good idea. ?
[XDA Assist] enp82003:
Awesome, Yes I'll try that now... Thanks for the help. Downgrading versions didn't help.
[XDA Assist] Darth:
Thanks! Thread closed.
[LG G Watch] XDA Visitor:
My LG G Watch is in the 4.4W.1. I want to updateI It but when I try from settings It says that It's already updated.

I tried to update it manually but i need the rom, can anyone give me a download link?
[LG G Watch] sudhamsu:
This is what I did:

Disconnect watch from device.

Reset app data of Android Wear app on device.

Reset the watch.

Reconnect the watch to device.

After this, the watch automatically started downloading the update.

Hope this helps.

Have you used Sony phone before? I would first check out the ui and what features it comes with. I don't think anyone should tell you which phone to get. It all comes down to your preferences.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bobbi lim:
On first glance, z2 and z3 does have a nice UI to it but (to me personally) after looking at it for just a few days, I got disgusted by it:(

I was using a HOX initially and decided to play with a Xperia Z and didn't find it much of a appeal so didn't went to get the Z2 but the M8 instead.

But if you want the great battery life for your devices, go for Z2 or Z3! These devices can easily hit 10hr SOT with a single charge ;)
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Halo2928:
As above

I'm just curious on how people generally restore their device with their previous apps/settings e.c.t after flashing a new rom.

For example, I intend to flash AndroidNow to my G3 and run it for a few weeks and then flash Cyanogen. Does that mean I have to start afresh and re-download all my apps and everything after the install? Is there an easier way of doing everything?

I would appreciate any help
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ymcc:
There are applications like Titanium Backup or in our phone just for the stock roms we have LG Backup.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meyerweb:
If you're installing a new version of the same ROM, it's generally safe to restore APPs and APP data. It's never a good idea to restore system settings after flashing ROMs. And if you're flashing a ROM that's significantly different (such as stock-based to AOSP, or even between two different variations of AOSP ROMs), I wouldn't recommend restoring app data, either.

I will get a mod to move it for you this time but next time post in the right area or ask a mod to move it for you.

These these type of questions are not aloud here at xda as it is illegal and breaks xda rules.

There are many posts about this. You need to take it to a shop for repair.

[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
Hi all,

So I recently bought a new LG G3 - after having screen problems with the Oppo Find 7 - had the Oppo fully refunded, so was on the hunt for a new phone.

Bought the LG G3 instead - great phone (apart from the stupid button placement)...but there's a fundamental flaw with it - just sharing this here, to hear if anyone else has been testing it the way I have done in the video:

(Essentially the audio has a buzzing noise to it, when using the phone - this happens when you amplify the source)

[YOUTUBE]watch?v=Y7FG7JhE3E8[/YOUTUBE]

I don't find it acceptable for a 2014 flagship phone to be like this.

I'm on the fence now to root it and/or flash another ROM OR just return it for a full refund - anyone else have any experience with different ROMs (ie 5.0 ROMs)?

EDIT:

I'm returning the phone: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57514537&postcount=12

Some test results: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57514889&postcount=13

[G3 General] Amb669:
That "beep beep" sound when connecting your audio jack appears to be unique to your device as I haven't seen any other G3 do that before.

Also, I stated in another thread about this issue, It only happens while the cpu is under load AND there is no audio.

Once the cpu load drops to idle the issue is gone.

Once there is audio playing the issue is gone too.

It's annoying while no audio is playing, But it's not gonna degrade your audio experience in any way what so ever when there is sound coming out of your phone.
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
Thanks for the input.

Well that's odd, I've gotten others saying the beep beep is normal, but the buzzing isn't lol.

Out of interest, do you have the same issue?

And it's also a matter of principle, rather than it also being a fundamental flaw in the design. No flagship phone should have such an issue.

Whilst music is playing it's not noticeable at the levels I play it at, but at low volumes, and whilst using the phone at the same time, I can hear the problem. I'll retest tomorrow to make sure.

Not because I'm looking it for it, but because something doesn't sound 'right'in my music.

If it's CPU causing it, then is it linked somewhat to the kernel (ramp up and down of the CPU) or is it due to the placement or 'communication' it has to do within the phone (hardware problem)?
[G3 General] neo6776:
Mine does the Beep beep thing when i plug in my phone to the sound system at my work. It's done it on every ROM i have tried. The hissing, i haven't heard for a while though.

To be honest though, it is completely unacceptable it's not been sorted though yet.
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
Thanks for the input!
[G3 General] Sideness:
Hi !

I think the audio system is the only problem with this phone.

When hearphones are plugged and there's no sound, you can hear a weird sound (especially when you touch the screen).

I also have a problem when I listen to music, sometimes the music has a little lag, a little buzzing for less than a second, as if the phone didn't have the time to load the music. It sounds like an old used CD. It happens once every ten minutes approximately. I don't know if it comes from the fact that I listen to music from my SD card, which isn't a very good card (64Gb, 20$ on amazon). I should test it from internal storage to check that...

Anyway, I'm using ChupaChups ROM and the problem you're talking about is also present. But Chupa Chups is a stock-like ROM, so this isn't a surprise.

I'm planning on installing CyanogenMod to see the difference.

I'll report back here after that ;)
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
Thank you!! :)

As for your issue - you tried disabling throttling from the secret menu?

I've done so - in order to avoid temp capping
[G3 General] Sideness:
What hidden menu ? Dev options ?

ChupaChups ROM includes a mod which allows the processor to have an higher temperature (I think the original limit is 65°, the mod is set to 75°). The mod is supposed to erase this kind of issue.
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
Well it's not much of a "mod" - just a setting that you enable/disable:

http://forums.androidcentral.com/lg...-mitigation-offa-option-tweaks-does-work.html

That's a link to what I did.

Essentially the reason I'm saying it for you - is the laggy nature of what you said - with my brief use of the G3, I noticed a little alg, until I disabled the temp and throttling
[G3 General] Sideness:
Okay, thanks for the info.

I just installed CyanogenMod 12 (The ROM looks very stable, but I only got it 20 minutes ago so...). The first thing I tested was the issue we're talking about here... It's also present on Cyanogen ! The problem does not come from the Stock ROM !
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
Legend - seems hardware related (as initially thought)

Unless CM use the same stock kernel - highly doubt that though!
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
OK guys - went into O2 store in the UK - they had a G3 on display.

(It was plugged in) - I could hear a LOT of static noise on my earphones with the amp connected.

Then I unplugged it from the mains - the static went away.

I then did the same tests as before and boom - same issue.

It's 100% not my device only and is present in the international G3 version.

My LG G3 is being returned tomorrow. It's unacceptable.
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
OK so I did tests -

Without the micro USB cord connected:

Audio playing - 0% volume (thus you can't hear anything) - static noise, no HDD-esk noise

Audio playing - 1st notch (you can hear music faintly) - static noise, no HDD-esk noise

Audio not playing - HDD-esk noise

WITH the micro USB cord connected - charging:

Audio not playing - Louder static noise, minimal HDD-esk noise

Audio playing - 0% volume (thus you can't hear anything) - louder static noise, no HDD-esk noise

Audio playing - 1st notch (you can hear music faintly) - louder static noise, no HDD-esk noise

Hope this helps everyone looking at this thread
[G3 General] sirdj:
So, I have a set of Sennheiser HD 598, a pair of Monster DNA headphones and Sennheiser CX275S in-ear earphones (for Android smartphones).

When I connect the HD 598 and the Monster DNA to the phone directly. I get no noise.

But when I connect the CX275S, I get the noise.

Could it be something to do with the impedance/resistance of the headphones and/or cable that is being used?

However I am not using an amp. Do you get the noise without the amp? Have you tried a variety of headsets??
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
Yes it can be the impedance - however this doesn't apply when I connect the amp -as it is picking up more than the source usually shows.

In other words - you CX earphones could be more sensitive (which I find surprising vs the HD 598) - but if you were to put an amp - I think all of them would show.

I've tested with a bunch of earphones and my headphones - all of which showed the same problem with the amp.

I know for sure now it's to do with the phone - now if some people would notice it or not with their given setup is another thing.

ie. their setup might not reveal the flaw (ie if I had never put the amp - I wouldn't have heard the problem).

Also - I've noticed a audible "click" / "lag" when music was changing. making me say: "Yup 100% this phone is being sent back"

Can't believe I'm back to my SGS3. over 3yrs old - no problems and trumps these flagship phones in terms of audio quality.
[G3 General] GuyInTheCorner:
Just to add my part, the "beep beep" is normal when connecting headphones. I usually get a very quiet buzzing noise when I have the phone connected to a power source and have headphones in. I'll report back in a week, getting a warranty replacement so may be different

EDIT: Using a pair of Audio Technica CKS-77X in ear headphones
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
excellent thanks for letting me know - why are you getting a replacement? (this issue?)

I've already packaged mine ready for an amazon return.
[G3 General] sirdj:
I decided to pull out all the earphones and speakers that I have. And here are the results.

1. LG earphones that came with the phone - no noise

2. Old Samsung Galaxy S2 earphones - no noise

3. Old iRiver earphones - no noise

4. Sennheiser HD 239 headphones - no noise

5. Bose Soundlink speakers in aux mode using a cable - at the highest 2 levels of volume I can hear the noise.

So it may be an amplification issue.

I am not sure that LG would accept the product back here in Australia if I tried to return it as there is no noise with the supplied earphones and any problems with amps would probably be out of their warranty terms.
[G3 General] GuyInTheCorner:
Cracks on the top IR Blaster (the one used for Quick Remote not for the camera) and your bottom microphone. Its a know defect with the G3 and they'll replace the phone for free
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
Not an amp issue - I think I showed that by comparing multiple devices.

It's the fact the source doesn't like to be amplified - and when done so, shows these problems quite easily.

The source (LG G3 jack) doesn't seem to be isolated/shielded well - that's the issue. Therefore normally nothing happens, crank the source up a little and it fails miserably.

It's 100% down to LG here - I won't say it again, but I've returned the LG G3 now. I'm done with their crap implementation. How on earth they would have missed it is beyond me.

Reviewers also need to wake up when they do audio tests. Useless.

dam ok
[G3 General] djmvt:
Tested it on my car stereo and indeed there is digital noise noticeable when cranking the volume up to max level. To be honest I don't see it as a flaw because I will never play it that high, when turning the volume on my car stereo down to normal listening levels it is not noticeable. Also checked with my Sony Bluetooth headphones and I cannot hear it on that device...
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
I'm happy you can't hear it :)

But I noticed it on 2 brand new LG G3's lol
[G3 General] GuyInTheCorner:
Haven't got my replacement G3 yet, but I did OTA to lollipop and can confirm that there's no buzzing at all, even with the volume cranked up to max
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
Is official Lollipop out?

And interesting - I'll test in a few months in a device in-store and see

Also - did you use an amp to test too?
[G3 General] GuyInTheCorner:
Yep, version 20E is what im using. And i didn't use an amp, just my headphones and an aux connected to the car stereo (for reference its a 2007 BMW 320d
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
ah - then might be that - how does it compare with previous version.

Ie. did you hear the noise before going on 5.0? and no you don't hear it?

In order to "confirm" it must be a comparison/video showing it.

If I had 5.0 and said: "Confirmed" it would mean that it was having a problem before and now doesn't.
[G3 General] GuyInTheCorner:
I could hear it on kitkat (4.4.2) but now i can't hear it. I think LG must have patched it in lollipop
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
Now that would be something - well let's see others input too.

I really liked the phone apart from that - and it's already returned now lol.
[G3 General] klubmix:
Hi everybody.

I own a D855 from H3G Italy, and I'm fighting with this f***ing noise with headphones.

I really can't explain what's happening, because I tried everything.

With AndroidNow 7.0 I finally found a Rom without this problem, but today, updating to 7.2 background noises are back.

So, I tried to make a dirt update, than a normal update deleting dalvik/cache, so I tried Rin kernel 1.2, then Skin kernel 2.1 but nothing to do, the problem remains.

I changed also different governors, but no differences. I tried with and without power charging, so I can't understand.

In addition to the noise problem, I have a Bluetooth streaming issue: audio stops as an old CD, like an interruption of the audio stream. This issue noticed with different device connected: Jabra revo wireless, Jbl Flip, and car Bluetooth.
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
Yup - I had the same problems dude - no idea of a fix - closest we've got so far is Android 5.0 update (I can't confirm this)
[G3 General] bedberkut:
This problem has been discussed in many threads and i think its a software problem.

Reasons why i think it's not hardware relsted:

-The g2 has a similar issue but only after you patch kitkat on it.

-on my g3 and many others the hissing disapears after you make a call (with no headphones pluged in) until you reboot the system.

This simple bugfix works for me but it's a pain in the ass and i hope somebody finds a way to fix it for good

Ps.

Stock Lollipop and cm 12 both do have the problem
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
Thanks for reporting it in.

I don't think it's software personally...
[G3 General] bedberkut:
Well the hdd like noises you hear may be something different but the hissing noises disappear completly after making a call (at least for me) so it can hatdly be a hardware problem
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
Yeah as said in my video - reminds me of the S3 problems....it's so similar it's not even funny:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/general/sound-quality-discussion-thread-t1633685/page79

Me in July 2012:

"just an interesting note:

I found as noted before, that if you can't hear the crackling, a reboot often makes it come back.

Would this relate to anything?"

A dedicated thread:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/development/fix-music-playback-crackling-clicking-t1758633

Now this was crackling - but not HDD noise.

The crackling (or static) was "activated" when the phone was in lower power modes. Ie when the CPU was downclocked.

Now the LG G3 doesn't have the same issue - in fact it's almost the opposite - when it is being USED it is having problems:

1. When plugged into a charging source, you hear static

2. When using the phone with the source amplified, you hear HDD noise

Again, I highly doubt they can be fixed - it seems like an isolation issue (fundamental) - I don't think a kernel update or ROM of sorts would solve it (ie having more volts pushed towards the audio chip, in order to give it more "juice", like it was the case on the S3).

Anyway, I could be proved wrong - I'm no sound engineer, just someone who has experienced it before and has some really basic knowledge of how it all "works".

Either way LG screwed up BIG time. Even if they update their software and it magically fixes it somehow, it still was shipped (and it has been over 6 months the phone is out) with a problem.
[G3 General] klubmix:
Turned to Chupa Chups 3.0 in the evening after a dirt installation (a Google Play Services error came out, but soon removed by upgrading the app from PlayStore) and the hissing issue has magically gone again.

Continuing to not understand what causes the problem, tomorrow I'll try to install the sharpening patch and find out if something change because actually I'm scared to flash anything that could restore the noise in the headphones.

I'm thinking that is a software problem, because I've tried the same installation upgrading from AndroidNow 7.0 to 7.2 and the hissing appeared, while passing from AN 7.2 to CC 3.0 has solved the issue!
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
Try somehow amplifying the signal and/or looking at the CPU frequencies.

Also look at where each of these kernels come from - what the kernel devs say - if there's been fundamental re-designs of the source code.
[G3 General] klubmix:
I tried to listen for the same song (XX's Angels) after both the installation, with the cpu in a warm situation, so I can imagine that frequencies were similar... I use some Jabra Revo Wireless (with the cable for testing, obviously) but I don't if these headphones are amplified or not...
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
Headphones/earphones can't be amplified - you'll need an amplifier for that :p
[G3 General] klubmix:
Eh eh sorry for my ignorance, my friend! ;)
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
haha don't worry dude
[G3 General] klubmix:
Yes, my friend.

This morning I received a call and now the hissing has gone.

At least there's a solution, a stupid solution, but it goes on!

Thanks a lot for sharing...
[G3 General] TotallydubbedHD:
so a call removes the hissing - what about HDD-esk noise?

What about going to the lockscreen etc
