[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hunter3000:
New phone, bought about 15 April, sent to service for fix this issues and received only info that service not found any of this problems. I mad now, phone freezes on bootanimation and restarts with sound "biiip", sometimes load xperia home but after that almost every app force close, flashed ce1 kk, ce1 lp, branded firmware, no success, any help with that?

I don't think that is hardware problem...

PS. A can't post yt link...
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sam_conrad:
My phone has the same problems a few weeks after I flashed a US 4.4.4 FTF in March. I had to flash my phone in flashmode with flashtool and wipe the data partition because the phone was in a bootloop. Ever since, even on Android 5.0.2, this phone randomly freezes, restarts, and force closes random apps. When WiFi / BT connects it also often freezes.

It is odd, because this phone was perfectly fine before, and now is very frustrating and often useless. Boot takes almost 10 minutes on my device now with .726.

LG G4 battery discuss

As lg g4 have the same capacity of battery as the lg g3 however having a brighter display and more powerful processor just want to see weather this new flaship can standout in battery life. Read though some articles says that it has been a 20% increase in battery life than the lg g3 hope someone can share it??

[G4 General] TonyStark R.I.P.:
So, plastic/carbon or leather?

What's your choice?

Why?
[G4 General] ragingredbull:
finish my contract beginning of June. Last LG phone I had was the LG Chocolate(I think it was called this). Looked at the HTC One M9 but really want a bigger screen(5.5" is ideal). Samsung does not appeal to me at all, wife had way to many issues with her SGS3, Galaxy Nexus and Nexus S. The camera on the LG G4 sounds pretty impressive for a phone camera, and I really like the idea of the leather back(will have to see it in person first though). Love that it has SD card, removable battery, what sounds like a fantastic screen. Not fussed too much about the processor like some are. As long as it is smooth I am not really worried about it. I love my M7 but it is really feeling very small now even compared to my wife's Z3. Only potential issue I will have is with the UI. Never had an Android LG phone. What is the UI like compared to HTC? Anyone had both?
[G4 General] TonyStark R.I.P.:
The G3 is still considered a "top notch" device. The improvements to this iteration are NOT minimal. Like the G3 before it, cell manufactures will be playing the catch up game...again.
[G4 General] ragingredbull:
Hey Tonystark, have you had(or still have) the G3? Have you played around with a HTC One(any iteration) ? How did you find Sense compared to LG's skin? Having only had a Sense skin on my phones since the HTC Desire(original) I am very curious as to the differences. None of my friends have any LG's so cannot compare myself.

I must add that HTC's have a superb dev team in Viper. Had them on my phone since my Evo3D. What is the development like on LG's?
[G4 General] TonyStark R.I.P.:
It's like trying to caompare apples and bananas;)

While most everyone knows sense (or has at least viewed it), LG's interface is more comparable to that of touchwiz. LG has some great app's and it's interface is fluid. What I didn't like about sense (out of the box) was home-screen and blinkfeed and nothing else. This has all changed now, with the M9.

It seems with my LG I didn't mind using the stock UI. On the other hand with most HTC devices (I owned,) I would be quick to install Nova Launcher.
[G4 General] TonyStark R.I.P.:
How will the rest keep up with the likes of this:eek:

Custom Roms / Kernels

I know the device is not out yet to test, but we may have big issues with Rooting and Custom recoveries on the G4. Right now, the trick to installing custom recoveries is to flash an older KitKat aboot partition that is Bumped. Newer firmwares have patched this exploit and I do not think any progress has been made on the issue.

Even my Nexus 7 requires such practices to get a custom recovery on it.

Without having a KitKat device, we may be stuck with stock for some time. Food for thought before purchasing.
[G4 General] natator99:
Apparently there's a "No Downgrade" method available for G3... not sure of the internals, but hopefully it could work similarly for G4

[G4 General] ragingredbull:
That is ridiculously good. Admittedly I am coming from a 4 ultra pixel purple tinted camera, but I and really, really impressed. I had a chance to see some of the UI too which looked ok. Thanks for posting that video I am now sold. Incredible really. I am now sold on it.
[G4 General] leroybrute:
Why are so many hating on the leather? I keep reading posts to the "hands on reviews" that the leather is atrocious and screen doesn't compare to Samsung.

I am loving the leather and the screen!
[G4 General] VR32:
i personally find leather in any form very odd on a smartphone, whether real, faux, textured or whatever. but it's certainly nothing to be upset or hateful about.

if this thing can be rooted on ATT then my 3 year long replacement search for my S3 is over!
[G4 General] VR32:
waiting & watching closely. good luck to the devs! if i can't root it then it's an M9 for me. which isn't really the plan...
[G4 General] Snakecharmed:
I haven't read anything negative about the leather or the screen by anyone who wasn't a troll or Samsung fanboy. The reviews I've read have said that the leather is the way to go and it looks much better in person than in pictures. I have T-Mobile and I'll be getting the brown leather version and getting a couple more backs later to use interchangeably, just because I can.

We're dealing with a generation of people who are more obsessed with showing off and talking down others rather than being content with what they have, all while failing to realize that most people around them either don't care or aren't impressed by their choice of phone.
[G4 General] leroybrute:
Haha! Upset or hateful? May have an issue with your comment, but not for the reason of my post. Just starting a conversation is all.

That is what I feel about glass on the back. Seems silly to me.

But I think it would be pretty cool to have the stitched leather in my shirt pocket where I keep my phones. The raised stitching would protect the camera some also.
[G4 General] frigidazzi:
My nexus 7 still does fastboot flash recovery*recovery.img just fine. What ate you referring to?
[G4 General] *justintime*:
Funny I really like Blinkfeed. And I am going to miss it. As a big HTC fan HTC let me down this year. And my eyes are on the G4.

I saw a port of Blinkfeed on the G3. Let's hope a developer will port it to the G4

I really like the leather. And I can't wait to read the reviews on the camera. Because that's a big thing for me now.
[G4 General] BillyxAllen:
With software and hardware optimizations its looking to have 31% better battery life give or take a couple percent. Have to take into account the screen and processor efficiency. I'm waiting for reviews with general use as well as screen on time

Mine still says processing. The Verizon site says ships by 6/1
[G4 General] bucknerspc:
Check your email. That's where I got my notification.. send tracking number for the phone and Sim card individually but they were the same number. I bet you'll get it by June 2, but don't hold me to that lol.

Just pre-ordered my G4 on Sprint this morning at Best buy. Really looking forward to Friday. I told them I'll be waiting at the door for them to open.
[G4 General] woozzy101:
I wanted to order the black leather from Verizon, but had to order from Best Buy to keep my UDP :(

On a side note, anyone else notice that they changed the color options on the Best Buy website? When I pre-ordered my G4 Verizon phone from Best Buy, I ordered it in "Metallic Gray". Now if you go to the Best Buy website, they do NOT have that color option available. They now have "Black Titanium". I called and asked them what the difference was, but they were not sure. I asked them to check the SKU numbers and supposedly the Black Titanium SKU is the same as the Metallic Gray SKU that I ordered. Will find out.

Now if only Best Buy would get black leather I would be set. But keeping my UDP is well worth buying an extra cover later on I suppose.
[G4 General] Lock-N-Load:
Not true.

You can order from Verizon & pay full retail to keep your unlimited data. I know I did it & mine has processed & I have tracking #.

Call them.
[G4 General] woozzy101:
Sorry, i was referring to buying at a subsidized price and keeping your Unlimited Data Plan. Options are a bit more limited then :(

Otherwise I would be all over Verizon @ full retail.
[G4 General] Lock-N-Load:
Ahhh yes. You want to keep udp and pay on contract then Verizon is out.
[G4 General] geoff5093:
I got an email from Verizon that my G4 black leather has shipped, and it's expected to arrive on Monday! A full 3 days before they go on sale in stores.

Guys, could you tell me your experience with the G4?

Like does the phone stutter or see any kinds of laggy?

I'm really skeptics about the snapdragon 808.. I think is not so fast for the phone/OS.

Let me know your experience.

Looking forward to you user experience with the G4,

Also wanna know how the GPS works on this device (maby same bug as the G3, just like if you set your brightness of your screen on high/max, you will get a warning the the phone gets hot and throttle it back to low... Really annoying bug in the G3... I really hope they fixed this!)

Verzonden vanaf mijn HTC Desire met Tapatalk
[G4 General] Mahapederdon:
I have the g4 and the s6 edge. This phone seems just as fast. No lag. GPS is good and I always have it 100% brightness and never had it throttle or dim like the g3 did. This phone seems very stable and it's memory management is way better than the s6.
[G4 General] aygul12345:
Thanks for confirming it about the back throttle of screen brightness when its on 100%.

Could you tell me how much RAM/memory it use on idle?

[G4 General] Mahapederdon:
That's been running without a reboot for at least a day and a half. And I havnt cleared any apps.
[G4 General] aygul12345:
Thats looking really nice, you have lot of RAM free i see (more then 1GB), most other phones doesn't have so much space free, i see in other phones like for 500 mb free of RAM, even if they have 3gb RAM... Weird stuff.

Im pretty sure you get me over to get the LG G4.

The only thing i was concern was the screen throttle back issue (brightness 100%) and the GPS Issue.

[G4 General] teddy0209:
Hello Guys, I have the G3 and planning to buy a new phone...

I have a question for the G4, does it have heating issue that affects performance like the G3?

Thanks Guys!
[G4 General] didi_ghost:
As i've seen everyone saying there's no such thing on G4, nothing from g3 problems.

I am going to get mine today :D
[G4 General] teddy0209:
thanks for the reply mate... i just want confirmation from as many as i can from G4 owners... =)

I just broke my G3 and planning to buy a new phone...

I prefer 1 milion times versatily to premium looking stuff. I love the G4, it is what G3 never was: a fast and stable device.
[G4 General] MicroMod777:
No heating issues with my G4 USA TMO. The G3 was a nuclear reactor compared to the G4. lol
[G4 General] DrexelDragon:
This phone sucks :( .. **** battery life (worse than my S6 Edge), retarded camera app (can't change resolution), glitchy and convoluted software... Sending it back ASAP.
[G4 General] geoff5093:
Have fun with that S6 :laugh:
[G4 General] DrexelDragon:
S6 is worlds better than this phone. I'm not biased at all since I try every phone and wanted the G4 to be good, but it's not.
[G4 General] LancerV:
S6 pretty awful coming from someone whos owned every Note since the Note 1.

I mean not being able to change the picture resolution is a gripe? There are a couple hundred apps to lower the resolution of a picture
[G4 General] DrexelDragon:
S6 is pretty awful? Now YOU are being biased, it's probably the best phone Samsung has ever made.

Sigh. The point is that's a basic feature that even dumb phones have, it's puzzling its not included natively. The software is not well thought out at all. The camera viewfinder lags and is slow as hell when compared to the S6, photos are half in focus/half out, it's just not good. It' s as if the phone came loaded with unfinished software from 3 months ago.
[G4 General] geoff5093:
I had the S6 when it came out for a week before returning it. Battery life was horrible, way worse in standby than my G3. Plus the phone itself was awful to hold in hand, the glass back got greasy very easily and made the phone incredibly slippery to hold.
[G4 General] triton302:
Here's a serious inquiry.

I'm seeing a lot of videos and reports of gaming being horrible on the G4, compared to the S6 and iPhone. This is actually important, I play a lot of games on downtime and would hate to have a nice big phone that sucks at 3D performance. That's one thing I'll definitely give iOS, gaming is smooth on those devices.
[G4 General] LancerV:
S6 is pretty awful, Samsung has looked the same since Android 4.0, its like lets keep making builds that look like ICS. I was kinda excited when they said they were going to go release a more pure android experience with the S6 but yep still looks like Samsung on ICS with a different color schema.
[G4 General] DrexelDragon:
You are insane. Touchwiz on the S6 is WAY better than it's been previously. Its incredibly fast, and much more well thought out than LG's UI, which is still horrid.
[G4 General] LancerV:
It looks exactly like KitKat on my Note 4, and Android L on my Note 4 and it still looks nothing like "pure" android like Samsung has said.
[G4 General] DrexelDragon:
When did Samsung say it was going to LOOK like pure Android? What they meant is less bloat and less unnecessary features and a smaller stock ROM and they have certainly delivered on that promise. Touchwiz is way better than the **** LG has on this phone.
[G4 General] LancerV:
S6 rom is bigger than my Note 4 cant exactly call that making it smaller can you? It runs quicker because its got a quicker processor, its like saying sweet my 2015 Z06 Corvette Runs Quicker than my 2013 Stock Corvette, like you don't say ?

http://www.ibtimes.com/samsung-look...t-pure-android-new-touchwiz-interface-1782042

The TouchWiz looks exactly like the S6 nothing has changed except it got bigger and more blaoted :good:

[G4 General] geoff5093:
I received my Verizon G4 in black leather an hour ago. I have it restoring all my apps, and damn this thing is insanely hot while restoring. My first impression is it looks a lot bigger than the G3, but I put my G3 on top and it's basically the same size, just a mm or 2 wider, but for some reason it looks much larger than it really is. I also am disappointed in the black leather. From the hype and photos it looked like it was going to be premium, but it feels just like textured plastic, not like leather at all.
[G4 General] Dennisg34:
When I was transferring my wife's pics/vids from computer to her S6 (since ya know, can't swap the cards out) the phone got really hot as well

Sent from my S5 using your mom
[G4 General] tourbound129:
Man, I don't like to hear that about the leather. I have my black leather coming on Friday with Sprint and was hoping it was going to be high quality. If it's not, I might just swap for a plastic back.
[G4 General] rfarrah:
Did it come with an extra plastic back as well?
[G4 General] DrexelDragon:
Are you calling me a Samsung troll?
[G4 General] ThePhoneGeek:
I am saying that anyone who takes up a full page of a thread arguing about about a phone that the forum isn't even about is a troll. If you feel that you qualify then I guess I am talking about you.
[G4 General] DrexelDragon:
Not at all. The two most recent flagships are the G4 and S6. I just go the G4 and I posted my thoughts on how it compared and how I'm returning to my S6 for the reasons I stated. I then was flamed by people on this sub at how bad Samsung is and how dare I point out flaws in the G4. Hilarious actually.
[G4 General] Mahapederdon:
I have the s6 edge and the g4. I'm currently using the g4 cause memory management was bad with the s6. I'm sure it will get fixed. I love both phones. I'm sure I'll swap back and forth monthly. Or not?
[G4 General] borimol:
How about signal, coverage? The G4 has better or worse in comparison with S6?
[G4 General] Mahapederdon:
Signal seemed about the same. I never had signal issues with either but I really never compared them since they both worked. I'm with Sprint. In my room I get about 1 to 2 bars with both. All my phones were about that though. Nexus 6 htc m8 m7. Edge and the g4.
[G4 General] geoff5093:
Yeah, it's more the radio than anything else. Once the restore was done the phone was quite cool while being used.

I'm hoping it grows on me. It looks decent, although it does have a Verizon logo pressed into the "leather". I guess I wasn't expecting 0.5mm thin leather on top of plastic, I was thinking it would feel somewhat like actual leather.

Negative. It also only came with the 5v 1.8A charger, not a quick charger, and no earbuds.

The S6 was worse than the G3, especially Bluetooth. The G4 seems to be on par with the G3 so far, I haven't done any scientific tests yet though.
[G4 General] triton302:
Anyone?
[G4 General] LancerV:
What games you play Ill test it
[G4 General] Derpling:
I got G4 today and it have same bug with the governor as G3, Interactive is bugged as fk. I play mainly tekken via ppsspp emulator, on G3 stock it barely worked, after i changed to conservative governor it worked PERFECT.

Same cure should be applied to G4 once we can root it, then it will cure itchy gaming performance.
[G4 General] Mahapederdon:
Have you all tried turning off the gaming battery thing under battery settings. I don't play much games but I turned mine off as soon as I saw it.
[G4 General] didi_ghost:
Maybe that is causing the lagg on gaming that users are reporting?
[G4 General] Mahapederdon:
I'm sure it isn't helping.
[G4 General] Derpling:
Guys just listen to what i wrote, govenor is bugged like in G3. once we can access kernel settings, and change to conservative, the problem will be fixed.

At least that how it was for G3.
[G4 General] the_scotsman:
Posting thoughts on the phone compared with another is fine, but let's not start a "my phone is better than yours" discussion. The S6 is a different phone, some may prefer it, some not. It's personal choice.

And it's pointless to compare battery usage after a day or two of owning a device. It takes a good few days (a few charge/discharge cycles) or the battery to settle and provide optimum on time.
[G4 General] the_scotsman:
I ordred the black leather one. Should be here by Thursday. I'm quite sure it's genuine leather, so maybe try some leather balm/cream stuff to see if that softens it up. I'm going to give mine a try if it's too hard and firm. Can't hurt.
[G4 General] superdragonpt:

Cheers
[G4 General] superdragonpt:
Can you explain in more detail?

cheers
[G4 General] Derpling:
Yes the interactive governor does not reach max cpu and\ or gpu speed at all times. Therefore a game can have unexplained times where fps goes down and then up. This govenor not scaling well, however conservative works pretty well on that regard.

I received my G4 yesterday, but I was really disappointed when I opened Hangouts.. LG decided they had to change the stock emoji. I use Hangouts heavily and I actually really like the Google blob emoji, but those ugly LG smileys...
