[Sprint LG G3] IamFlynn:
I would have to agree with the guy above. I just recently bought my Sprint LG G3 and its only been a few days but I went ahead and rooted it because I believe I can get even more out of it (as in battery life). I do not care for performance as I believe the G3 is already a powerhouse. However, I just now rooted my G3 and the only (and probably the last besides flashing roms here and there) root adjustments I have done is remove stock applications that I would not of been able to if I was not rooted. I believe that stock applications can slow down your phone since they are always running in the background (which can take up battery and potentially data).

All in all, if you truly are satisfied with your phone's performance, don't root. Rooting is complicated and comes with lots of risks. If you already love your phone and nothing bothers you (like stock apps for me, etc.) then don't bother.

Hope this helps!
[Sprint LG G3] Macguyver:
Well that's my issue, 2 things that are irritating me are not having root explorer and apps being able to save to the SD card though I know root won't fix that.

I guess I just am tired of flashing roms right now maybe. But I do miss having root for a couple apps and I'd love to get rid of some bloat for sure.

Can you successfully freeze or uninstall the connections optimizer? Anybody running the pre-rooted zv6?
[Sprint LG G3] IamFlynn:
You can uninstall it completely on stock rooted zv6
[Sprint LG G3] meyerweb:
SD Card writing is a big reason

The ability to restore prior apps and data has saved me a few times when I updated to what turned out to be a buggy app update.

Nandroids, nandroids, nandroids. Which wouldn't be important except for:

- The ability to freeze / delete bloatware (there are a few big battery killers among LG's bloat)

- The ability to install various sorts of patches and tweaks (to increase volume, for example)

G3Tweaksbox, G3Tweaksbox, G3Tweaksbox

[Sprint LG G3] scottspa74:
The first few days I had this phone, I wondered if it'd be the first android device I hadn't rooted,because it was pretty impressive as is. But within 2 days, I couldn't stand having bloat, I couldn't stand not having root explorer, I couldn't stand not having inverted apps, and I couldn't stand not having tether, and mostly, i couldnt stand not having the ability to fix/change sh1t that I may find to be buggy down the road.

Yes, it's a great device stock. But without root, it's not YOUR great device.
[Sprint LG G3] Macguyver:
thanks guys,

so with the ROMS like BarRin apps can write to the SD card?
[Sprint LG G3] meyerweb:
Yes, BarRin includes this fix. There are also stand-alone apps that provide that capability on rooted phones, like this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix
[Sprint LG G3] HappyFillmore:
Root is the only way. It gives us our phone back. Gets rid of bullsh**. They wanna watch us and secretly see what we do. That is not cool. Take back our phones. Why must sprint load us with bloat? The sheep have no idea how much we are watched. There is no agreement that says they can see everything we do openly. We agree when we buy that does not mean it has to stay that way.
[Sprint LG G3] tareyaz:
The main reason I rooted was to obtain tehering (hotspot)and not pay extra $$$

Hi,

I'm totally noob and have zero knowledge about rooting.

I just rooted my G7102 (kitkat 4.4.2 - XWUBNK1) with latest CF auto root. Had SuperSU 2.39 PseudoPro installed. Got notice available update through PlayStore then update. After that, check with Root Checker Pro and it show below message :

Root access IS correctly configured for this file! Executing this file can grant root access! Root user ownership is present and setuid attribute is not present.

What bold text does mean ?

is it correct rooted or not ? please guide me further for what I should do

[HTC EVO 3D] LeoDroid30:
Hey I just had a couple questions on this rom. First of all Mad Props man , I love this rom and it was my daily driver 2 days after u first posted it here . Best rom i have ever had . Period. But I totally fu*&ed it up and to make a long story short i basically ended up having to start over and flash both roms again. So i just tried to do that and followed your instructions to a T just like the first time i did, which when i did that i got it right the first time and had no issues at all installing it and booting up and had no problems . So I tried to do the same thing and this time after i have tried to do it over and over checking and rechecking everything that i could before i came on here and asked a question. So the problem is that after i flash the Bada$$ rom and reboot , thatswhe the boot logo appeares and thats it. I have let it sit for almost 30 minutes to see if i was just not giving it time to boot but that didntmake a difference . Still stuck at the boot logo colored circles and that is faras it will go this time. Now I am not sure but after eliminating all the other things that could be contributing to the issue , i come back with nothing and i dont get what the problem is cuz i did it successfully the first time i flashed it and so i was just stumped . But then I noticed something that i didnt at first .......The download links that u provided for the roms go to dropbox and I realized that it said that they were both updated recently and so obviously that is the only common denominator that i have and im not entirely sure but its the only thing that changed from the firsttime i flashed this. I really really love this rom and so maybe you can point me in the right direction as to my problem and what to do if anything . I am not sure what changed in the roms themselves so i just dont know and the thing is i dont see anyone else even talkiing about this rom. So i am not sure if anybody else is having the same problem after the rom zips were updated . ?? Anyways I apprieciate the time for u to read this and also for the work u do , freaking awesome. So any help/insight directions would be awesome.

Hey there, thanks for encouraging words.

When I make a change to Rom throughout the day, I'll re upload the changes at night when I go to bed. You may have downloaded at 'bad' time.

I've never had it not boot, though after flashing Badass it usually takes 2-3 minutes to boot. I'm uploading now, wait at least a few hours and let me know how it goes. Apologies for so long to reply, first time I checked q&a

Hello I wanted to post that I finally was able to download both zips and successfully flash the rom. Now I am running it but I keep having an issue and I am not sure why cuz I have followed the op directions with the s-manager but for some reason I can't FDIC the problem . It keeps telling me to update Google Play servicesbut for some reason when I try to update it through Google Play it always ends in an error saying that my phone has insuffifient space but I know it does I can install any other app. So it constantly has an error message in the notification area. I have tried several things to no avail. If anybody can help please it would be great . Thanks for your timevand I will post if anything works out
[HTC EVO 3D] PiggyFlooper:
Yeah, okay, you need new GPlay Services for newer stuff like YouTube. I put a script in there to prevent it from updating because several months ago the new Services made it to where my device wouldn't deep sleep. That was killing battery life, I'm not sure if that's still an issue.

Go into Terminal Emulator, type

su (enter)

then type

chattr -i /data/app/com.google.android.gms-2.apk (enter)

Now you can delete the file, and update it

Also, find the dummy file at /data/com.google.android.gms-2.apk and delete it too. The script that does this is at /system/etc/init.d/ zzzz. I wouldn't delete it, there's good stuff in there, just delete lines pertaining to that app( because it'll delete the new app too and replace it with the dummy file ) :p

[LG Optimus 4X HD] FalconOfDoom:
Hey guys,

So yesterday I dropped my phone, and despite no external damage, it wouldn't turn on or connect to my PC. I've pulled it apart and found that the 'TOUCH WINDOW' (according to this video) connector had come off when it hit the ground. I've reconnected it, but now the little piece that has the chip is sort of floating above the board. I can now power on the phone, but to do so I have to squeeze it really hard together, which leads me to believe that I need the chip bit to be sitting more flush. My current plan is to sit a thin piece of plastic over the top of it so that the case applies a bit more pressure to it.

My question is, assuming it works, is this going to get hot and melt or effect the phone in any way?

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LewisD94:
Hi, I've just received my OPO on the 27th. I was really interested in Android development when I had my Nexus 5 and started building my own AOSP ROM, I've been looking into doing the same for the OPO but am unable to find an actual way of building AOSP with Google's code. I know OPO released their AOSP kernel source here: https://github.com/OnePlusTech/android_kernel_oneplus_one and CyanogenMod has thiers here: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_kernel_oneplus_msm8974 but I'm unable to work out a way of including these into my AOSP build and I would prefer to not build CM.

Note: I'd like to build AOSP myself, I'm fully aware that there is a current official OPO build available.

Thanks in advance,

Lewis
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quasar:
It's advisable that you create your own tree from the CAF MSM8974 using CM GPS and other drivers and build CAF AOSP. Otherwise, it's close to impossible/very difficult. Pure AOSP is again near impossible/very difficult for non nexus devices.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LewisD94:
Thank you very much for the reply, so building AOSP is pretty much impossible then?

I was having a look around on the internet last night and came across this: http://developer.sonymobile.com/kno...uild-aosp-kitkat-for-unlocked-xperia-devices/

Would there be a way of adapting this guide to allow for an easier build process of AOSP for our device? The other confusion that I face is if it's impossible to build AOSP for the OPO then how are ROMs such as this available?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quasar:
VanirAOSP uses CM trees as of now. Again, CAF AOSP is basically AOSP for non nexus Qualcomm devices., and any experienced dev can whip up a tree and get it working. Also, reaally good devs can/may be able to port AOSP if they wanted. It's a matter of whether they want to do it or not. :)

That link is for Sony devices only because Sony already provides CAF trees as an OEM so devs can build.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LewisD94:
Ah yes, I see what you're saying now. Thanks for clearing this up for me! :) I just noticed when I looked at the VanirAOSP ROM thread that it states CM for it's credits, haha. I apologize for my ignorance.

Unfortunately, some people such as me report that their Galaxy S4 has a major screen defect. Where the right side of the screen has a unusually larger black border. Perhaps this happened to some of the batches of S4's in the U.S. It's more likely to be appear on a white S4 rather than black. Make sure to check if your S4 has this defect. If it does, make sure to post pictures of it.

For those who are wondering, here's what the defect looks like.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jball:
The thing I noticed is the block that's indicated is not the right one,if you look at the pic below the recovery block is mmcblk0p43.

I would download the custom recovery you want and manually input it "dd" method

Or

Download the custom recovery img and use an app called Flashify
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Magnum_Enforcer:
If you can't boot into Android you'll need to fastboot flash your recovery. The one you're using is rather old (I believe 2.8.3.0 is the most recent version). You'll need to download the recovery img file and place it in your ADB/Fastboot folder on your computer. Connect your phone and computer in Fastboot USB mode. Open up a command terminal and type fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img and hit enter (enter the actual recovery file name and not nameofrecovery). The new recovery should then be flashed to your phone, unless you get an error in the terminal on your computer.

As stated above, Flashify works great for flashing recoveries to your phone, but it only works if you can boot into the Android OS.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
I would seriously stay away from flashing recovery using apps, they rely on build.prop to identify your device, and if that's not correct the recovery will go to the wrong partition (which seems what's going on in your case because mmcblk0p34 is the recovery partition on the HTC One M7, not HTC One M8 !!!!

just flash it in bootloader (FASTBOOT USB):

fastboot flash recovery <name of recovery>.img
fastboot erase cache

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
Don't dd

Don't flashify

Just install mini adb+fastboot for Mac and do the commands mentioned. It's pretty much the same for Windows, Mac and Linux.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jball:
Why do you think I've mentioned the other methods.

Not everyone understands how to use fastboot like we do.

If he has a bootable OS than Flashify will work just fine (I wouldn't recommend an app that I haven't tried/used myself)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jball:
dd is a method using a terminal emulator on your device.

The screenshot is from the twrp website and the "dd" method is described as a working method if in fact you can boot to the OS (SuperSU is needed)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
Because flashify, TWRP manager, ROM manager, etc apps expect the proper device info in build.prop

and will then dd whatever partition it sees fit... In this case, it thinks it's an m7

fastboot flash does not.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jball:
I read what you've stated already.

I agree the sure fire way is fastboot .

Easy for you

Easy for me

But maybe not so easy for some.

As long as the OP gets what he wants is all I'm in here for(not a long drawn out tutorial as those already exist)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
Sorry if my answers are short and not in much detail, I'm typing on the phone... I prefer a full keyboard :)

But dd is not something I easily recommend (much more difficult than fastboot flash)

and if you check the build.prop of the ROM mentioned by the OP you'd see it's not entirely proper

I've seen enough bricks due to "flashy apps" and one-clicks (no offence intended to any)

fastboot at least does some checking of what is being flashed and where, so that is what I personally recommend.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jball:
Thank you for the more detailed information.

Small keyboards blow for sure.
