[T-Mobile LG G2] TenderTendon:
I just received 2 D801's from China. One black and one white. The black one arrived with D80120a installed and it got OTA updates to D80120g immediately. No problems with this phone. The white one arrived with D80120d installed ( a screenshot is attached). I can't find any info on this version. It's as if it doesn't exist. T-mobile doesn't recognize this version, so no OTA updates coming. The LG Mobile Support Tool recognizes it as D80120d with no updates available.

I can find only 2 things missing in this version. The first is that there is no T-Mobile bloat anywhere (a good thing). The second is that there is no wi-fi calling (I need this). I guess my questions are: What version software is on this phone? Would it be safe to load a D80120a,e,g kdz with the LGFlashTool2014? I would really like to get wi-fi calling working on this. It is my wife's phone, so I have no desire to root. Thanks!

I could find it is that the ROM 20d is a telephone in Canada. So it is a T-Mobile USA but put a rom of Canada, so it is rooted.

I would not surprise me that the IMEI is not the mobil !!!

There is a US T-Mobile D801 and a Canadian Videotron D801. They are not the same phone. For the Canadian one look here.
[T-Mobile LG G2] cuervo3000:
Thanks diamond12 but my mobil says in the back that is T-Mobile. I bought in China and became rooted and the rom d80120d that does not exist for T-Mobile but for videotron. And he tells me IMEI on the web that last rom available is d80130b. But I still do not dare to install because I really doubt that model was originally. Greetings.

Read through this thread to make sure which variant you have. If you confirm you have a T-Mobile D801 you can use the LG flash tool to flash the latest firmware.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seannnn:
Hello, I am a recently new Android owner switching over from the iPhone. So rooting is a new thing to me. I have been looking for a way to root the Xperia Z3 (D6708) and I haven't really found a thread that tells me what exactly I am supposed to do or if it is possible. I was hoping that someone could tell me if it is possible to root the Z3 and maybe point me in the right direction. Thanks!

Edit: Is the Z3 the same thing as the Z3v? So if I find a thread about rooting the Z3 will it work for the Z3v?

Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.

I am having trouble with the active display on my moto x 2013 lately.

The digits appear broken. They don't render completely. Some times they overlap.

I have tried factory reset but the issue still persists.

I have attached a screen shot of the problem I am facing.

Has anybody faced this issue before?

Looking for some assistance on how to fix this issue.
[Moto X General] mrbradeli:
I have a similar issue where numbers start to overlap each other. I think it happens between 9-10AM most of the time if I remember correctly. Never bothered taking a picture but I might now that someone else is having a similar problem.
[Moto X General] anirudha.sengupta:
Mine is not restricted to a given time of the day. It happens randomly. I tried deleting cache, doing factory reset. it would fine for some time.
[Moto X General] whgp:
A strange problem :rolleyes:

Wait upgrade Lollipop may solve your problem. ;)
[Moto X General] mrbradeli:
It's obvious not that serious of an issue but this is a terrible attitude to have about something you use daily and paid actual money for.
[Moto X General] whgp:
you are right,

but if it is still under warranty sent them to repair.

this is simplest solution :silly:
[Moto X General] alexhdkn:
I have a bug too with AC: the 1st digit of the hour sometimes is 0 instead of 1, so when it's 17:34 i see 07:34, not always but it's annoying.
[Moto X General] fury683:
I've noticed mine only a few times, usually with the hours, not the minutes. I do specifically remember one time I woke up and looked at my phone, saw it says "1:00" and I was upset that I had slept in so late, but was very tired so I went back to sleep (it was already late, so what's another hour?). When I woke up later it was only 11:45. I guess it was actually either 10:00 or 11:00 when I woke up the first time, and the display was glitched for a moment. A reboot usually fixes it when issues persists.

I've also noticed that sometimes the Active Display does not vibrate when I touch it, or the lock ring will show up but no clock or notifications, even when they are pending and showing on the screen. If I touch the center of the screen the only icon I see is the bottom unlock, no notification text or the clock up top. Once I unlock it seems to flush it out and work fine after that. Lastly, sometimes the screen brightness gets goofy and seems much brighter than it should be, but it's rare.

If your phone is doing this a lot (I've noticed the clock issues maybe 10 times total over the last 14 months or so), I would look at getting it repaired or replaced.
[Moto X General] bernsy:
mine actually just started doing this too. In my case the 1st digit after the : is not there. only seems to happen, or I only notice between 7am and 8am. usually unlocking fixes it, sometimes I need to restart.
[Moto X General] marzak:
Mine did this for the first time a few days ago. At 11:14 the active display said 1:141. I clicked the power button and it hasn't happened since.

Me too, I think some developer forgot that lots of people use the 24 hour format :D

For those of use who enjoy the original Doom game, Amazon is selling D-GLES for $2.50 and I picked it up. Not disappointed at all.

Works great with the Amazon Game Controller, looks great. Can play most any Doom/DoomII type WAD files.

Has some enhanced graphics, mouse look, and you can customize your controls. Oh, networkable also.

And props to AFTVNEWS.com for letting me know it was out. =)
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cal3b:
TWRP can't mount /system. Phone is a SM-G900T 16GB

- Running the latest version of TWRP I tried:

- Wiping, repairing, and reformatting from TWRP, also tried formatting data. I get a unable to mount '/system' error message every time.

- Using Odin and Heimdall to reformat using a downloaded .pit, neither works. I ran Heimdall in Windows and Linux (ran as sudo and admin). I re-downloaded the .pit multiple times and tried a couple different sources.

- Installing CWM using Heimdall, and ADB. In ADB and Heimdall I still have TWRP and in Odin it removes the recovery completely.

- Fix permissions gives the unable to mount '/system' error message.

- Installing ROM from Heimdall and TWRM

- Mounting /system with or without MTP

How it happened:

I was running Cyanogenmod 11 with encryption and updated to 12. CM12 was running great, flashed GApps, still running good. I signed in to my Google account and downloaded IPcamera. While running IPcamera I got an email, the screen started going crazy flashing between the alert and IPcamera screen, I couldn't do anything so I pulled the battery. When I rebooted it was stuck in a boot loop. I booted into recovery, it asked for my encryption password as usual. The password didn't work. I tried several times. I rebooted and tried again, still nothing. I rebooted again and this time hit cancel when asked for the password. I wiped everything and got the can't mount /system error. I tried everything above, nothing works.

I can't download my .pit so there is more wrong than just the data partition.

Any ideas? I would love this thing to no longer be a really expensive paperweight. I really can't afford to replace this thing right now :(

Thanks for your help.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Commodore 64:
Odin back to factory stock and use Samsung's stock recovery to do a couple of wipes.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cal3b:
That worked!! I don't know why the stock recovery can fix it when TWRM couldn't. It worked though. Thanks a ton!!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] egyptshun:
This didn't work for me :( every time I wipe in TWRP it just never installs the packages, or upon restart it just doesn't mount system. Wipe repair on TWRP doesnt work either :(
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Commodore 64:
I'm totally with you on wipes and package installs randomly failing on TWRP, but I have no idea why. Sometime in December, I made the switch to Philz CWM, and I haven't looked back since.

At any rate, it is always good practice to odin back to stock, use the stock recovery to do wipes (factory reset and wipe cache), and then odin Philz CWM or any recovery program of your choice.

If you're planning on loading Lollipop, then you might just download the latest from Sammobile, odin the stock and wipe, and then load your custom recovery.

Best of luck,

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raymondo17:
I'm curious what external storage devices folks are using with their Fire TVs to avoid the low-memory warnings. Are you using large hard drives, or little thumb drives? If the latter, is 32GB enough?

Here's a link to something I was considering using for external storage: A tiny, low-profile USB 3 flash drive with 32GB of storage:

http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Ultra...Z43-032G-G46/dp/B00LLER2CS/ref=dp_ob_title_ce
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calibaan:
IMHO without root you can not use any external media since USB mounting is not supported out-of-the-box.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derpeter:
I use a 32GB USB3 Stick which (on USB3) write about 60mb/s and reads about 80mb/s. I never testet it on USB2. In direct comparation of two firetvs running asphalt8 one from emmc one from USB the USB firetv is about a second later in the game which

is IMHO totaly fine.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calibaan:
How do you mount it? My non-rootable aTV does not recognize storage devices on USB.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forty0z:

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xm41907:
I'm using an older Western Digital My Passport 320gb and mounted my internal data to it. I connected it to a small powered hub and also have a wireless mouse/keyboard dongle and wireless game controller connected to the hub. It works wonderfully. Only a slight delay compared to having data still on the FTV itself.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCFish:
Your performance will always be limited to the transfer speeds of whatever external storage you're using. So it's not as easy as saying use HDD over USB Flash or vice versa. You can use either, just be sure that what you use has good transfer rates.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xm41907:
Exactly. I first tried a flash drive I had laying around. It turned my FTV into a slow crawl.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raymondo17:
Good to know, as I'd read that USB sticks would offer lousy performance.

An excellent point. I did find a thumb drive, the Kingston Digital HyperX 3.0 Data Traveler, with what appears to be good transfer rates: 225MB/s read and 135MB/s write.

http://www.amazon.com/Kingston-Digi...99462&sr=8-2&keywords=Kingston+HyperX+MAX+3.0

For around the same price, I could get this Toshiba Canvio portable drive, which would hold over ten times as much data, but I can't seem to pin down the exact read/write times. The stats say up to 480 Mb/s transfer rate, which does sound pretty good to me.

http://www.amazon.com/Toshiba-Canvi...2683&sr=1-16&keywords=external+usb+hard+drive

Another question I have is whether using a USB 3 drive would even matter since the Fire TV is only USB 2?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derpeter:
Most USB3 stick have faster controller and faster memory then the old USB2.0 versions. It is hard to find a fast USB2.0 Stick so you may be better of buying a USB3 stick and use it on the USB2.0 port of the aftv. (Which not mean that there are no slow USB3.0 sticks)

I can also recomment the sandisk extrem 32GB USB3.0 stick its even faster then the one in my tests but that should not matter on the USB2.0 port of the firetv.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangk0ng:
My phone fell from the 2nd floor, the lcd screen was really damage, pieces of the glass were falling when I picked the phone up.

It was still ON when I picked it up, but when I pressed the power button, it turned off and I couldn't turn it ON again, does not recognise the charger, doesn't make a sound when I plug it to either the computer or wall plug.

When I got to open the phone, I remove all the glass in the front (no damage on the back and sides). I was thinking of trying to recover the contents so I can easily transfer to another phone if the phone is good as dead. So before I would buy a screen replacement, I wanted to recover the data in the phone, so I tried connecting the phone to the wall plug, if I remove the battery it give me a steady red led light, but if I attached the battery, it gives me a blinking red led light. the same goes with plugging this to a Mac and PC.

So would like to ask is the main board also dead? or is there still hope for my phone?

thanks!
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
When I shattered my LG G2's screen (LCD was intact) it gave me warning that that the Display was damaged and that it was switching controls to hardware buttons.

In your case the signs are that it's badly damaged as in more than just the LCD. Because it's not even being detected by your computer or even charging.

The above is just my opinion so don't quote me on that but I am fairly certain you may have damaged the motherboard. I have dealt with other people's screen damaged phones and they still worked or were detected by their computer.

Hello, I have the Z2 for two months and I noticed that maybe 40-50% of the surface of the camera has stains on it.

I've seen on the forum that some of you experience scratches on the camera, which means the oleophobic coating is wearing out, but this doesn't seem to be the case. Does the camera have a factory protective foil on it? I can't really tell. I'll come back with a photo.

I still have a warranty for 20-21 months, so I'm thinking of sending it in to see if it's covered, doesn't seem like something that should happen so fast to me. Does anybody know what's Sony's policy? Do they replace the whole phone? I'm worried of the phone not being waterproof if they open it to replace some parts.

I love the metal finish and look but I've been using a clear case along with a glass screen protector since it's very slippery. I now want to use it naked but need to add some kind of grip, especially to the sides... Anyone has any ideas, like some kind of clear bumper or skin?

Thanks
[One (M8) Accessories] asianrage:
Try a DBrand skin for more texture and grip. Slickwrap is another option.
[One (M8) Accessories] Rantrave07:
use a skin from fireflex or dbrand or any other brand you like. select a grippy texture. make sure all sides are covered. that will do the trick :)
[One (M8) Accessories] Badelhas:
I wanna see and feel the metal finish, at least partially. Isn't there something transparent that I can apply on the sides or something?
[One (M8) Accessories] Rantrave07:
You can. I think there are transparent skins available too. Check them out. Transparent skins are always better. :)
[One (M8) Accessories] Badelhas:
I checked the brands you suggested and didn't find any clear skin. I found a seller from Romania called "X-Skinz" on eBay for 11 bucks but can't find any reviews about it anywhere. And his 97% rating is not inspiring ;) there are cheaper yet on eBay but from China and those must be terrible.

Xtremeguard also has a full body clear skin but it dosent protect the sides.

I have the carbon fiber skin on my Transformer. It's real nice and recommended. I've been thinking of getting this clear skin for my M8 one of these days. As you can see it does wrap around the sides. Should give you the grip your looking for.

My Review of the Luvvitt Clearview htc One M8 Case

I go naked at home when I was using my Clearview. The novelty of the Dotview hasn't worn off yet.......it will though.
[One (M8) Accessories] Badelhas:
Regarding cases, I am currently using the Spigen Ultra Hybrid Clear case but the best looking clear case I used (at the same expense of less protection) is the Baseus Ultra Thin Clear TPU Case

But I really would like to try it naked, feel the metal and all that. When you think about it, what's the point of buying a metal body smartphone if your not feeling it? Problem is the lack of grip... If only the sides were textured, that's what I really wanted now
[One (M8) Accessories] Chris_c81:
Weirdly, I've been thinking about this too. I ran naked for a few days and really liked it however it is insanely slippery!

I started searching for mobile "grips" as I wanted something I could "apply" to certain areas. For me its namely bottom right corner, bottom left corner as that's where contact is when I'm holding it one handed. However all I could really find either looked horrible or poor DIY jobs.

I wanted something transparent, low profile but has a slightly "grippy" texture.

I'm thinking about checking out DIY store for adhesive tapes etc. and seeing if anything is suitable. Other avenues might be worth exploring, those sticky back gel things used to apply to ornaments etc. to prevent scratching surfaces they're placed on. And the sticky back materials they use on the bottom of chair/table legs to prevent scratching wood flooring.

For me, even a small square of material which is super thin, transparent and otherwise unnoticeable on the rear bottom half of the handset would suffice for a decent grip.

What would be even better though, is a low profile bumper which lips around front and back adding grip around the edges.
[One (M8) Accessories] Badelhas:
Exactly. Or some kind of crystal clear bumper only, instead of the metal bumper I saw. That would be great. I have a friend who is a "McGuyver" kind of guy, I'm going to ask for his opinion on this subject also.
[One (M8) Accessories] th3:
I think you're looking for more on the lines of a 'bumper' rather than a full 'skin' ?

Like the Poetic Borderline and FlexiFrame side bumpers...

But I doubt any of them made any for the M8 after disappointing interest with their M7 line.
