Or you could just click the BBcode on the right side in Imgur. It automatically copies the entire code when you click on the text in that bar, all you have to do is paste it into your post. No need to use the editor buttons.

As another helpful tip, you can add s, m or l to the filename to make the picture smaller without having to actually resize it.

So image.jpg becomes imgaes.jpg for the small size in the URL. Usually L is more than big enough for XDA.

Thanks :) Actually, I searched everywhere about how to add images in XDA post/thread. But I found nothing. So, instead I tried to figure it out and I got the method 1 :)

BTW, Your method is added as the "Method 2" in the post :)

How do you get this text formatting toolbar when posting a message?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bernieke:
I'm running a stock galaxy nexus, and since a few days (suddenly), people can't understand me anymore when I'm not on speakerphone, I sound really far-off and muffled.

Since it's working fine when on speakerphone I'm suspecting either a fault in the noise cancellation or with the microphone which is used in regular calls.

In the stock android I run I don't find an option to disable the noise cancellation.

Can anyone recommend me a rom which has this option? I'll be giving the phone to my wife next month (provided I can fix this problem), so I don't really care one way or the other if the experience/ui of the new rom matches what I get from stock android. All that matters is that the phone works well.

If disabling the noise cancellation doesn't pan out, would there be any way for me to force the phone to use the secondary microphone for all calls? (Since it still works fine on speakerphone...)

Did you notice that from a little while a lot of programs run un the background without you notice unless use a programa like battery doctor?. Why!. It seems that somebody want us yo run out of battery and charge again so as to spend electricity. Even if you use battry doctor once, they start again soon. Android operating system should take care.This is anoying and you have to charge battery twice or more depending the time your smartphone is on and not the use you make of them

Android is not like Windows. It's normal to have apps run in the background. Actually they don't "run", they just stay there to optimize memory usage in case you call them. Using memory kill apps actually makes your life batter WORSE, cause android will reload those apps anyway a moment later.

It's not a bug - it's a feature. Live with it :)

Hi,

You've made a couple serious mistakes here. First, installing system apps from another device to yours is never a good idea and sure to cause many issues. And, you're trying to use Samsung proprietary apps that rely on the Touchwiz framework to function on your device. That will never work, and as you've witnessed, can mess your device up very easily.

Doing these things can cause force closes for sure.... And have a good chance at bricking your device depending on what you try to install.

So, you're only hope here now would be completely wiping your device and reinstalling the stock software. No, don't use Odin... It's only for Samsung. Your device is not a Samsung, at all. And be sure the firmware is for your exact model number.

I can't find any relevant threads on this on XDA, but here is a dedicated thread on your device that you can ask for help in,

Hi Greetings,

I was wondering , is it possible to convert Nokia XL to fully working and traditional Google Android?

Not with some store launcher..

Can we remove Base software ( Semi Android / Noikia's Android ) and install Fully working Original Android?

If so please through some light.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

We have just launched Smart Unlock app and we need to know if is compatible Sony Xperia Z2 because we do not have any xperia device.

Can you please test it and let us know?. Its a 7 day free trial but we can offert a full refund if someone want to buy it, we do not want to take any profit for xda members helping us to test our app.

Tha app is Smart Unlock and extends dafault smart lock functionality by adding wifi trusted devices, bluetooth or wifi, so usar do not have to write the lock pattern or pin each time while connected at home´s wifi or car´s bluetooth.

Hope you like it and it works properly on z2, thanks for testing.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.loadinghome.smartunlock

No root required, compatible with android 4.1+ (and android 5)

[Xperia Z2 Themes and Apps] funky0308:
I'll test it for you but you should ask few of us to test your app and offer free pro/free version for testers.

I really believe that's fair...without that (and that's common thing on XDA, this is only advertising)

It's not problem to pay app and support development but I hope you understand what I'm trying to say...

I'll report for a few hours, when I test it...
[Xperia Z2 Themes and Apps] hazex:
I´ll refund the money to anyone helping to test that asks for it.

Anyway, we are working in a XDA special version of the app with no time limitations.

Thanks for your suggestion.
[Xperia Z2 Themes and Apps] funky0308:
I don't want that for myself, I'll gladly help, that was just a suggestion.

BTW - I found few problems.

When you are using arrow "back" (hit BT button or WIFI to add a device, then arrow "back" app then have overlay problems.

The other problem is:

I paired BT device (smartband SWR10)

but when I hit power button it won't unlock device automatically, I still have to swipe (I set unlock to swipe)

Am I doing something wrong or?

---------- Post added at 06:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:48 PM ----------

[/COLOR]I just tried with a WIFI and it's working great but BT isn't working.

I tried with another Xperia and one LG phone but BT won't work.

I really hope you'll managed to fix BT problem, I'm using smartband SWR10 for unlocking and I'll be great to have working app for BT as well ..

---------- Post added at 06:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:07 PM ----------

After few locking/unlocking cycles it stops working. (on WIFI)

I get this notification :

Hello, thanks for reporting. I can try on TAblet xperia Z with no issues, but we do not haze a Z2 device. We will try to get one to solve this issues, in the meanwhile we will likely unpublish the app for Z2 device.

Hello,

We have purchased a 2nd hand Xperia Z2 to test this issues.

With wifi and with normal Bluetooth (car audio bluetooth) is working fine for us with Smart Unlock app.

We do not have a smartband SWR10 to test the bluetooth.

Do you know how SWR10 works ? Does it have a specific software?

I guess the smartband has a power saving system and the BT connection gets interupted. When you reconnect to a trusted device you have to make a manuall unlock once. Make sure your bluetooth device is connected, not only paired.

We can not either reproduce the visual problem that you have reported. Your notification does not look like a stock Z2 one. Do you have stock room? Did you modified something?

Any help will be appreciate, thanks in advanced.
[Xperia Z2 Themes and Apps] funky0308:
It's stock based ROM but modifications aren't big...all the functions are unchanged.

I wrote already that I test this app with a few devices, Xperia Z1, LG (can't remember which model was), HP notebook...and SWR10... All devices was connected properly and stock unlocking BT system was working with those devices without any problems...

I'll try again but I'm quite sure BT wasn't working, only WIFI.

App is designed and written very good and it's very easy to pair devices and use this app so I doubt I missed anything...

BTW :

Yes, smartband need this app to work properly.

PlayStore link
[Xperia Z2 Themes and Apps] hazex:
Hi again.

After some testing, Smart Connect is not what generates de issues.

What android version are you running on your Z2? In sony Z2 with android 4.4 there is an option con configure "unlock with bluetooth devices" , Make sure this is disabled because this will create issues with Smart Unlock app.

We have also to notice that SWR10 es a BLW (bluetooth Low Energy) this can also be responsible of the BT interruptions and the unlock request after switch on the device screen. I will keep you informed if when I have more info about this issue.

Anyway, on Z2/Z3 should work fine under wifi and/or normal BT devices (not BLE) as far as the native sony unlock solution in "settings>system>security" is disabled.

Hope this helps!
[Xperia Z2 Themes and Apps] moman2000:

[Xperia Z2 Themes and Apps] funky0308:
Of course, stock BT unlocking has to be disabled.

I selected "normal" unlocking - particle and tried with many BT devices without success...

I'm on eXistenZ 4.0, stock based ROM for Z2 and I really doubt that's the problem...

I had rooted the LG G3 D855 a while ago and I wanted to get the lollipop update so I unrooted the phone and tried to update it but it didn't work. After that I said since I did that why don't I go to lollipop so I found a rom here on XDA that worked. I downloaded the files but realized I needed root again and searched for a way to root it. Long story short I tried both root programs there and after a factory reset I am left with no home screen at all, no keyboard, and no way to launch almost any app. Is there any way to install a rom without root?

Hi,

I want to buy LG G PRO 2, but i want to know if it will get lollipop update and when or get LG G3 instead.

From where i can get a good online price for LG G PRO 2?

Is there a big difference between 16G and 32G ROM?

Thanks
[LG G Pro 2] jabi_james:
this device will get lollipop for sure.. it's the matter of time.. i think in third quarter of 2015... you should spend more money to get g3.. 16gig model is not worth it.. and battery drain because of qhd screen is too much.. and for g pro 2 no difference between 16 and 32 .. just capacity.. you just can flash 32g rom over 16g..
[LG G Pro 2] azizmorgan:
Which is the best place to get the phone from? i found LG G3 32G at hi-mobile.net for 425USD, LG G PRO 2 for 395USD but not available.
[LG G Pro 2] ray-lee:
honestly, i'd rather get a Nexus if you're paying that money. just save a bit more.

it's not guaranteed that LG GP2 will get Lollipop.
[LG G Pro 2] azizmorgan:
Do you mean Nexus 5, i want 5.5 inch or 6 inch ,Nexus 6 is expensive, what about one plus one it is about 330USD.

Get the 32GB version, the price difference is not much.

Sure you can buy a 32GB microSD for ~40$ nowadays, but having bigger space on "/" is useful, too.

Good online price? I don't know. Depends on where do you live.

I bought mine at a local GSM shop, but MAKE SURE you ask them about "which version is it".

They tried to sell me a Chinese variant with no English language available on it. So be careful with these shops.

I got the g pro 2. 32G, thanks for help.
[LG G Pro 2] Franco203:
Hi all, new to the forum and waiting for my new G pro 2 (d838) to come. I have a G3 32gb right now, which I believe is great, but I always wanted to try this "beast" of a phone, as they say it runs better than the G3. Hopefully I will get it before the end of this week, meanwhile I read a lot of posts in this section to get as many infos on it.

By the way, I see Lollipop is coming soon, on my G3 d855 I have the latest 20H firmware and it is awesome, LG is doing a very good job lately at updating its top devices, so I expect a great 5.0 rom for the G pro 2 too.
[LG G Pro 2] enkhtwshn:
Expect better battery life than G3, Between the performance there is nothing to compare . I dont see any point of 2K displays .

LG is common underrated in my country so price is fair

In mongolia the "almost NEW" korean models

G2 cost 300000 MNT = 150$

GP2 cost 350000 MNT = 175$

G3 cost 500000MNT = 250$

G3CAT6 600000MNT = 300$ (very satisfying for a poor country)

---------- Post added at 07:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:40 PM ----------

my eyeballs nearly popped when I saw the price, still from 520 to 384 € is very nice
[LG G Pro 2] Franco203:
Thank you for your feedback! Actually I bought it online for 310€, a very good deal. Before the G3 I had the G2, which I loved, but it was kind of small for me, that's why I got the G3. As you well said, battery life is one of the biggest flaws of the G3 due to the 2k display, really useless on such a small screen. Also, I heard about a better signal reception on the G pro2, which is another good reason to switch.

Can't wait to receive it!!! :)
[LG G Pro 2] enkhtwshn:
"Small" :)
[LG G Pro 2] Franco203:
Yes, I like big phones since I'm 2 meters tall and have big hands. :)

I used to be a Note user, but I got sick of Samsung's touchwiz so I tried other phones, and LG was a nice discovery, much faster and fluid UI. Unfortunately the G pro 2 is not officially commercialized here in Italy, and I never had the chance to try it in stores, otherwise I believe I would have bought it way before.
[LG G Pro 2] letschky:
I have 2 weeks ago bought a new in black 32GB.

[LG G Pro 2] Franco203:
I bought the 16gb version on eglobalcentral IT because I wanted it white, and I couldn't find a 32gb version in white. But I have both an sd card plus a 32gb micro usb external drive, so storage won't be a problem.

Let's see how long it takes for it to get here, I ordered it yesterday. ;)
[LG G Pro 2] alwayslearning:
I have both the G3 and the G Pro 2, I bought both of them the day that they came out so I've had both for some time now. The screen on the G3 is amazing it is much sharper than the pro2, I use both of them daily, one is personal and one is business. But I find myself going to the G Pro 2 when I am reading articles or scanning the Internet. I think both phones are awesome, as to performance I believe the G3 is a little bit snappier but that is because I already have lollipop on it. I truly believe when you get your G Pro 2 you will love it. I am amazed when my friends pull out their iPhone 6+ which is enormous and I pull out my G3 and my screen is much larger than their iPhone 6+ but the platform is so much smaller the same is true for my G Pro 2, bigger screen less real estate. I cannot understand why LG has never sold this phone in the United States. And I do hope the rumors of a G Pro 3 being abandoned or not true. I think the Pro 2 would be great with the 2K screen. It would be the perfect phone. As to battery life, I don't have that big of an issue because I bought both from Korea and they ship it with two batteries and a battery charger. On a heavy use day I'll have an extra battery with me.
[LG G Pro 2] Franco203:
Glad to read your experience, thanks!
[LG G Pro 2] enkhtwshn:
Lollipop kicks ass. Except Samsungs crap.

To all people out there SAMSUNG CHEATS ON BENCHMARKS BY OVERCLOCK WHEN CERTAIN APPS ARE OPENED lg does not.

So benchmarks lie. Overall GP2 is a great device
[LG G Pro 2] Franco203:
That's true, you can easily notice it in daily life usage how snappier LG's phones are (talking about top devices).
[LG G Pro 2] Franco203:
Got my d838 today, I'm really happy about the phone, it's amazing!!!

So, now that lollipop came out, is it worth the 20c upgrade or would it be better waiting to see how it's behaving on this phone?

Anyone who already flashed it could please tell us about battery life, camera, call quality compared to 4.4? Thanks.
[LG G Pro 2] azizmorgan:
Congratulations for your new phone, i am reading some good comments for battery life on lollipop but i didn't flashed it .
[LG G Pro 2] Franco203:
Thank you! :) Since I couldn't wait, I just rooted the phone, installed a custom recovery and flashed 20c .zip, so if I see something wrong I can easily go back to stock 4.4
[LG G Pro 2] h8Aramex:
There is no xposed. That's the only negative thing about the upgrade.
[LG G Pro 2] Franco203:
Not a big issue for me, I'm more concerned about battery life and general smoothness of the UI. I have this phone for a few hours now, but I'm already in love with it!! Most underrated phone ever
[LG G Pro 2] h8Aramex:
Totally agree, this is the best smartphone I have ever used or owned, hands down.

One thing you should know about:

In Lollipop, filesystems on the phone are encrypted by default.

If you flash a stock Lollipop image, the phone SHOULD have an encrypted filesystem.

This means a slower phone. (yeah, more secure, who cares, we could encrypt our phones in KitKat as well.)

But! If you just upgrade from a KitKat via OTA, or via the LG PC Suite, your filesystem won't get encrypted.

[LG G Pro 2] Franco203:
That's very interesting, thanks. I flashed the .zip file of the stock 20c via cwm recovery, because I'm coming from 10b 6WT/CHUNGHWA TELECOM_16G(TAIWAN), and there is no chance for upgrade via ota nor lg PC suite at the moment. Would it be the same if I flash the .kdz file via lg flashtool 2014, in order to skip filesystem encryption?
[LG G Pro 2] dule_lfc:

[LG G Pro 2] enkhtwshn:

Beast of a phone

Get the phone. Easily one of the best purchases I've made.

Huge battery life. I'm averaging about 4-5 hours of screen on time. This is with 4G, wifi on all the time. The standby power consumption is really low, probably due to the s800. I charge it till 100 percent before sleeping, and when I wake up its just about 95-96%.

Dat 3GB ram handles anything you throw at it. Multitask, use the multi-window qslide apps, anything.

1080p resolution at 5.9 inches. Sure, other phones outperform the ppi of the GP2, but personally I'd only notice it if I'm looking really hard at the screen. Watching movies, playing games, is so much better. I have long fingers, so the size doesn't bother me too much, dont know about you though.

Go try to play and compare Pro 2 and Note 4...

You will know why Pro 2 is the best phone in its category or rather a top-notch phone by LG!

Note 4, the UI sucks big time and it is so laggy as simple as it pauses when keyboard pops up in the stock SMS app.

Pro 2, on the other hand, smooth as silk in UI and fast performance in every departments and apps, be it stock apps or downloaded apps!
