[T-Mobile LG G3] xXNahNahXx:
So ive got a D851, and as most of you know, Lollipop still isnt out yet, should be out soon no doubt, but ive read that there are a lot of bugs and issues and what not with the official version of Lollipop. So my question is, would i be better off waiting for the official Lollipop or getting a L based rom?
[T-Mobile LG G3] Still_living714:
official for sure
[T-Mobile LG G3] xXNahNahXx:
Why do u say that? I hear there are a lot of issues with the official.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Still_living714:
Yes but it's only a matter of time before a fix comes out. Nothing better than running stock official firmware. Too many roms have different bugs. Unless you want try and find the one that has less.
[T-Mobile LG G3] xXNahNahXx:
I guess youre right. Thanks!
[T-Mobile LG G3] ph37rd:
Either way, you're going to have bugs. Some are very well documented on any device for which Lollipop has been released.

My thought is to wait for the custom ROMs based from the D851 stock. By that time, many of the existing bugs will have been squashed or have acceptable work-arounds. You also end up with the best of both worlds, think of it as customized stock.
[T-Mobile LG G3] xXNahNahXx:
From what I hear, official Lollipop has a lot of bugs or rather annoying quirks, and that no had yet to find a way to unlock the bootloader, so would it be smart to wait for the official update, or root right now and get a L based rom?
[T-Mobile LG G3] Still_living714:
I guess it really doesn't matter what you download and flash. Official lollipop has bugs and any L rom you get now has many bugs also. As for me I'm sticking with zonerom until something solid comes out.
[T-Mobile LG G3] xXNahNahXx:
What do u recommend I do? Wait or use a rom?
[T-Mobile LG G3] k000:
Wait.. I tried AOSP, but no go..

1. No Wifi calling

2. Camera features not as good as LGs

3. no Laser focus

4. No Knock code

5. My BT to headset stuttered on AOSP

etc

etc
[T-Mobile LG G3] dspcap:
I played with a couple of the roms last week. The plus is the battery, it rocks. Couple bugs: 1. Touch sensitivity is not very good 2. Radio (noticed I lost connection in places I normally don't)

what do u suppose i do? wait or use a rom?

Yes, it is for that. But you've asked the question three times in the same thread and people are still answering you. Are you looking for a different answer than what was given?

Do a nandroid, flash an Android L ROM..play a few days. If you don't like it, restore. No harm done.

With this kernel no, this one is only for n910f. You need an other custom kernel which is compatible to the n910c and where you can set selinux to permissive. After that the chance it will work is much higher.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] padovaz:
Almost there... but not yet

I'm also just can't make V4A work in Note 4 (N910C).

I know the easiest way is to flash a compatible ROM (with SElinux set to permissive as default) but there are still some issues here.

Its almos consense that without setting SElinux to permissive the driver would never work. Tried a couple of tricks and putted my system to permissive and could make de driver enabled, status normal but NOT processing...

Digged the xda forum and learned an important thing: there is a workaround for this pemissive stuff, you allow driver to work in SE enforcing. That made me a lot more confortable, after all SElinux is made to make the system more secure, and we are all removing the security policy in the sake of a single app.

Ok, the workaround works, but I´m still stucked in she same problem: everything is normal but that "processing: no" hell.

Questions:

1) There are some relation with the player?

2) changing v4a to force enable will help?

3) changing to FX compatible mode will help?

4) WHY IT JUST DOESNT PROCESS!?

System:

N910C lollipop (sweet ROM v11)

SElinux enforcing

SuperSU and Busybox installed by default w/ ROM

V4A version 2.3.4.0

Player: Spotify

Thanks any help
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] padovaz:
SE Linux workaround

For those who want to keep SElinux enforcing and thus keep the system safer, here is the command you want to run (run as root):

/system/xbin/supolicy --live "allow mediaserver mediaserver_tmpfs:file { read write execute };"

It has to be executed every boot, that can be done via init script or via tasker profile

It worked perfectly to me (Note 4 N910C w/ Sweet ROM v11), the v4a driver shows exactly the same status as if I had changed SElinux to permissive
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhaowai93:
For those who are having problem only with 'Processing : No' :

Use ES File Explorer (or any kind)

1. Look for system/etc/audio_policy.conf

2. Make a backup of it.

3. Edit and remove deep buffer as shown in the attachment.

4. Save and make sure the file permission is rw-r--r--.

5. Reboot and enjoy. [emoji5]

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RadicalMushroom:
Hi there,

So recently I just tried rooting my HTC One M8, with the All-In-One tool kit. It was successful, I was messing around with it for a while, removing bloat wear, ect. Then I figured out about custom roms, and heard about CyanMod11. It turns out that it couldn't read my sim card for whatever reason, but it still worked and loaded up. Then, I tried Android Revolution. THAT one worked flawlessly, besides the fact that I couldn't take screen shots for whatever reason. I should of just left it there. Here's where things go wrong. Then, I tried ViperOneM8. After that, it failed to load up and is now in a endless boot loop. I can't get into fast boot either. However, one time I somehow did manage to get into fast boot, but I didn't see the "recovery" option anymore. So... I'm out of ideas here. I'm really worried I bricked my device for good. My device powers on and everything, it just won't load up any OS, and I can't get into fastboot/recovery. Why I'm mainly worried is I failed to create a back up also. I'm running out of ideas here, and if ANYONE could help me that would be great.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clsA:
first you posted in the wrong forum this goes in Q&A

second what do you mean it won't go into fastboot / recovery ? what happens when your in the bootloader ?

I need the results of fastboot getvar all to determine what files you need to fix your phone ( not you serial no. or IMEI)

most likely your on an older firmware and you have s-on and the Rom you flashed requires s-off and the latest firmware
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RadicalMushroom:
Gah sorry, I find this forum layout kind of confusing. So this is another problem. I cannot access "getvar", it just says device offline, and I close that command prompt and then the next one just says "please wait," and nothing happens.

What I mean by it won't go into fast boot, is when I hit power + volume down it won't load anything. Here's a pic I found off Google, I can't get to this screen here.

Easy way to get into boot loader

Turn on your phone

When it gets into bootloop

Press and hold power+vol up+vol down until screen goes off

As soon as that happens press and hold power+vol down

You'll be in boot loader

And I must say you are a major noob

Navigate to hboot using vol buttons then press power button to select, you'll find recovery

These are just 2 modes hboot and fastboot

From fast boot you can select hboot and vice versa

And also getvar will work ONLY when you're in fastboot mode

Hboot mode is used for accessing recovery

I backed up my phone and have had troubles restoring a rom, although I don't have access to it at the moment, if I restore a backup I made with htc sync manager will it restore the rom I had? and if not, I've had troubles installing a rom with a .zip, because every rom I find is for a different bootloader (I have 1.6) and .exe's fail because my bootloader is unlocked. if I relock it should the .exe work regardless of the bootloader version. if neither of these would work, what do you suggest I do? I'd send it in to htc but they estimated $220, then another person said $290 is average, but it could be up to $350 just to fix it, and at that price I could almost buy another (sorry if these are easy questions)
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] johnnyutah22:
In order for someone to help, you should post the rom your on, whether your s-on or s-off, and what recovery you're using.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
I think you mean hboot 3.16, as "1.6" is not a valid hboot number for this device.

There are ROMs for every hboot number.

If you are s-on, the RUU will

always

fail with an unlocked bootloader.

Will it work

regardless

of hboot number? Technically no (although in your specific case, its sort of "yes"). The hboot number of the RUU needs to be equal and greater than what is on the phone. But as it appears you have hboot 3.16 on the phone, any correct RUU for AT&T will meet this requirement, as all official AT&T RUUs are that version or newer. But it

mus

t be an RUU for your version (AT&T) of the M8.

If the phone simply isn't working/booting due to attempted mods; I'd say its not necessary to send in for repairs. I think we can get the phone up and running again. It just sounds like you tried some mods, and not completely familiar with the processes, concepts, etc.

In addition to the info posted in the reply above, also explain in detail what you have done to get to this point. Its not even clear what state the phone is in. But if you are considering sending in for repair, I assume this means the phone won't boot.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tykate:
Ever since November, I've been thinking about purchasing a new phone. I was set on the 2nd gen Moto X as I have a $50 discount code, but I got quite busy and didn't really have time to think about how I wanted to customize it and order it. And my Nexus 4 (what I'm upgrading from) isn't terrible, I just feel it needs to be upgraded pretty soon. But T-Mobile recently offered $150 off of their G3 ($450 final) and I felt it was a steal, especially for having double the capacity and an extra gig of RAM. So both are $450 in the end. I know you guys will recommend the G3 for me, but does anyone have certain reasons why the G3 is the better of the two? Any response is appreciated. Thanks guys

Thanks for your feedback man. How do you feel about the build quality? This is the real dealbreaker for me because I've felt the Moto X in person, and it's rock-solid in terms of build quality, but can't say anything for the G3 as I've never used it. But some people complain about the plastic build quality. I'm going to try and get my hands on one, but the another plus for this device is ROMs. Oh, sweet ROMs. The main reason this site exists haha
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
You're welcome!

I'm impressed with the build quality, but I came from the S3 and S2 before that so was used to "worse". It feels nice, it's light, I was worried it would seem to big for me. The curved back feels nice and makes it feel comfortable.

Two things I think could be better about this phone. The notification LED - I never notice it when I get a notification unless I'm looking directly at it.

It's too small. The S3's LED was perfect. S2's was huge and looked like it was made for kids.

If I have the phone face up on my desk at work I never notice the vibration notification for texts. I did all the time in the S3.

I theorize that the curved back makes it this way since it's less contact area when face up.

I'll have to make an effort to keep it face down and see if I notice it. Mods for notifications like "Dynamic Notifications" , custom AOSP based ROMs and possibly official lollipop will take care of the notification problem by waking up the screen for them.

By the way, I got 115+ hours on battery last time I charged, but since I picked up a tablet at the same time and my wife and I are anti-social, I don't use my phone much.

The camera is awesome with laser focus on the stock ROMs. I rarely have to use the flash, too.

Good luck with your decision.
