[Onetouch Idol 3 General] kye04:
Hi. Any of you used the phone for what a phone is used for : calls ? Because i see here nobody complains about calls quality. I have the european 4.7 dual sim , the phone is perfect except for calls quality. The sound is weak and extremely muddy , unclear . I find it hard to speak on this phone , it is so bad comparing to any phone i ever used. I searched on internet and i discovered other owners complaining the same problem, even a review on an important web site. Everything is perfect except call quality..... I switch phone to another one identically at the dealer, switched networks etc etc etc.

Also the caller i'm talking to complained about the clarity of my voice....

I would really feel sorry to return it....
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] sjs87:
So after 3-4 months of daily use as my only device, I'm just as satisfied since day one. I haven't had any [major] issues other than the very rare stutter/lag. Usually clearing recent apps takes care of that.

A friend of mine hasn't been as fortunate as me though. After seeing my idol3 he had me order one for him also to replace his old phone that couldn't stay on 10 minutes without seeing a charger. Well, after about 2 months with his, the power button stopped working. Now I must say that he does rely on his phone for work so not a minute goes by without him constantly mashing the button. Add that to the fact that he's not a techie person at all so he's not as careful as most of us would be. So I think it's safe to say that this phone isn't up to par when it comes to a fair amount of abuse.

So as a result of this, I'm selling him mine and I'm waiting for a oneplus x to be delivered to me. :D. I should have jumped on that Amazon sale for the nexus 6 for $200 but I hesitated cause I wasn't sure I wanted something bigger than the already large idol3. Either way, I think I'll be happy with the opx. I know I'm giving up the front stereo speakers, screen size, and 64-bit 8 core processor and battery capacity. But the SD801 is still up to par, I'll get an amoled screen in a more manageable body and updates/development will be better than what we might eventually get here.

[Q] Android (4.4) Car Radio + Samsung Galaxy Note 4 + BT headset => Microphone issue

Hi all,

I have bought this:

http://www.prezzipazzixte.com/sched...BLUETOOTH-WIFI-3G-GPS-BMW-E90-{b}-E91-{b}-E92

For which the integrated microphone has really bad quality.

I own a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (SGN4) and a Plantronics Explorer 210: http://www.plantronics.com/us/product/explorer-210

When I pair the Android Car Radio to my SGN4, I can clearly hear the other person on the car speaker but that person can not hear me because the integrated microphone of the Android Car Radio has bad quality.

The Android Car Radio does NOT have an external microphone port (it has a USB port though).

So, I would like to know if I can use the SGN4's microphone or the Bluetooth headset's microphone as audio input (disable the Android Car Radio's integrated microphone) and always use the car speakers ?

If yes, how should I configure/pair these 3 devices which has Bluetooth? Do I need to install any app? If yes on which device?

Many thanks in advance

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aminoacow:
Hi all,

I always believe it is better to use folders to organize apps on home screen in terms of better performance. However, I don't like TW lollipop folder icon, so I'm thinking about adding a lot of home screen pages and sort apps on different pages. What do you guys think?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cloxed:
In theory, as you add more and more pages, the system has to cache more data into RAM, as the contiguous pages of the drawer must be ready for when you scroll to them. On the other side, while the system shouldn't need to cache the icons of the apps in a folder, it might just do that as well, as to access them faster when needed.

In both cases, I personally believe that the impact on performance should be close to negligible, especially in this allegedly refined version of TW and in a notably more powerful device. Who knows, it depends on how the launcher handles the resources.

[General Questions and Answers] tekeous:
I didn't find a thread for the Volt, model LS740 on Virgin Mobile. Rooted by the original owner. So I'm posting it here. I'm using adb on Ubuntu.

So I'm trying to repair a broken system by reflashing the stock ROM. I suspect the previous owner(who rooted) may have removed multiple important system apps. Upon doing a factory reset it has no home launcher or keyboard. As soon as the screen turns off it loops a com.android.systemui has stopped. Every boot you need to do a factory reset to get it to work: booting once, then again will loop the systemui crash, requiring a factory reset to work.

The android recovery works, I can get to it, but it offers install update from cache, adb, or sd card. The phone will not recognize sd card while it is in recovery, and adb doesn't work in recovery, only while booted. Copying recovery image to cache fails at 71%, I suspect the phone does not have enough RAM to move 1.17 GB from A to B. The phone may also not have spare storage space. I'm working on finding an sd card so I can try copying from there.

"adb reboot bootloader" reboots the phone normally. If there's a bootloader it skips it entirely. I found threads that say uncheck fast boot in power/battery options, but I have no such check box.

Right now, I have adb, images/zips for twrp recovery and stock rom, and I can push apks for a launcher and keyboard. But I apparently can't access bootloader or install rom via recovery. I don't have an sd card to try and copy the rom to cache, which I will try as soon as I get a card.

Adb cannot run as root, I get "adbd cannot run as root on production builds. So I can't directly push the rom to /cache/backup using adb.

Any help? I tried to get it all out there so that you guys could help better. Thanks for reading all that.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] chiwah:
My question is why My hermes Tytn picks up the weakest signal at this moment, that is the '3G' signal which is only 1 bar. If i switch to 'G' i get 4 bars instantly.

I have flashed the radio roms already went from 1.40.30 to 1.38.01...anyone thought about making my hermes just picking up the strongest signal automatically regardless if i want to use my UMTS connection?

bandswitch is not really an option right, bc i want my phone just picking op the strongest network at all times.

Its quite ridiculous that my phone picks up the weakest eg 1 bar '3G' instead of 4 bars of 'G' in my opinion especially when im in a phone conversation.

Any comments are welcome.

Regards,

Chiwah

btw new black touch rom is nice...only dunno if its a mon-tue-wedn etc on my today screen.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] wu_ybao:
Try to update radio to 1.41, it will solve your problem

I have same experience, it is solved after i updated the radio to 1.41. It is noticed that radio !.43 encountered same problems as 1.38 or 1.40. It always pick up the weaker signal such as 3G instead of steady GSM. For the radio 1.41 it always pick up the strongest signal, it will pick up GSM autuomatically if 3G signal is weak.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mzahiri:
Or.....

Or you can just search for a great little program called band switch. this program creates a little icon at the bottom of your screen allowing you to switch band on the fly with the click of a button. it is free and was developed by someone in the community. just do a search for it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] unwired4:
I think you will find that the device when in auto (in common with all 3g devices) is set to choose 3g if its available - and thus it will choose 3g if it can get a signal. Personally I prefer 3g (even with one bar) to gsm as it means I can talk and receive emails at the same time.

But I am aware that some hermes users on some networks seem to have some 3g issues with low signal (ie it thinks there's a 3g signal but actually voice and data have trouble getting through).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] TheGadgetGuy:
I agree. The phone will deliberatly attempt to use a 3G signal whenever available. As long as you can send and receive calls, it seems to me that is a desired feature.

Now, if only they would expand 3G into more of my state... :)

When???

Looked at the pdf and (unless I missed it) there is no date availability indicated.

Just tried my update feature and it says my software is currently up-to-date with 24A!

Obviously verizon will do their usual "it will come when it comes"!
[G Pad 8.3 General] roirraW "edor" ehT:
It's common for KDZs of official releases to be available before the OTAs get sent out. First they create the KDZ, and then they create the "diff" files necessary to OTA from the last official update (24A_00) to the newest official update. That said, I never believe that a release is official and final until everything else arrives, but that doesn't keep me from flashing it. The presence of the KDZ and of the PDF give good evidence this is final official. On the VS985 G3, we had three leaks of lollipop, 23A, 23B and 23C_00. Then the official release was 23C_01. Sometimes someone is able to get a hold of a leak's OTA file, but not for more than a few users here and there, as what happened on the VS985.

Even once the OTA is made it's very often not rolled out to everyone at once, it's staggered. So while your IMEI (and mine) might say no update, there may be other IMEIs of VK810.4Gs which do report 35A_08 as an available update. I don't think we're sure if they go in numerical order of IMEI or what determines what order they go in.

We might not see the OTA for weeks. Who knows.

You can use LG Mobile Tool 2014 (not the official LG/Verizon flash tool) on a Windows PC to flash this 35A_08 KDZ. You can try "Normal" mode which will keep your data, or "CSE" mode which will wipe everything including internal storage (not the additional Micro SD card).

Update Concern

Is anyone "concerned" over the wifi issue with the LG G3 update (5.01) that may or may not impact the gPad?

I have kept both my Lg G3 and gPad "stock" this time around and when the G3 updated a short time ago, I could connect with but no longer utilize my home wifi. I have to connect to another close by xfinity wifi in our condo unit that is open and it works fine!

There is a supposed work around that I am just too stubborn to do it as I wish to remain stock with these two units. Those of us impacted by the Verizon/LG issue (apparently "legions") are still waiting for a fix to be uploaded which as of today is still not forthcoming.

However, this experience concerns me regarding this update for the gPad unless the 5.02 has taken care of the 5.01 issue.
[G Pad 8.3 General] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I just wanted to chime in that I likely won't be able to test whether this too will have the WIFI issue since I haven't had the issue on my Verizon G3 at home, work or elsewhere. I know it's real, I've just been lucky. Someone else will have to let us know.

You can always roll back to 24A_00 or any other KDZ though, just as on the G3.

[G Pad 8.3 General] muiriddin:
I have been unable to have my Verizon G3 at home reproduce this issue either. I do not doubt that the problem exists, unfortunately I am unable to determine if the problem also occurs on a G-Pad (V500). I have a V500 with the Korean lollipop release installed and am testing it currently, trying to see if I am going to run the US Image stock when it is released. The wifi issue as I have read about in the Verizon G3 forums does not appear to occur for me on my wifi access points.
[G Pad 8.3 General] roirraW "edor" ehT:
If you want root on 35A_08, you can roll back to (flash) the 24A KDZ, re-root with Stump, go through the brief hoopla to get TWRP installed (I've done it so many times I don't know it like the back of my hand but I'm very comfortable with it), and flash my completely stock ROM that's almost done uploading in the Development section. You WILL have to separately flash the latest SuperSU.zip by [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] (detailed and links in my ROM OP) to have root before you leave your custom recovery.

Got it installed and it appears to be running well. I will post more when I have had some more time with it and tested more features.

I did have a tough time getting it installed, probably because I was rooted. I was getting "Err 0x13e" on the updater screen and then error 402 when it rebooted into KK and said it failed.

What I did to get it installed:

- Unrooted - still errors

- Used Verizon upgrade software to "repair" the tablet

- download LG drivers and install

- connect tablet and run installer that is mounted on Windows

- Repair stated that it would preserve data, etc., then said that method failed and it would need to erase data to repair

- Chugged for a while repairing and succeeded

- On reboot, it was still running KK and all of my data was still intact (hmmm...but good)

- Then, updated to LP with the OTA

I've tried three bt headset:

- Samsung (bt v3.0)

- Plantronics (bt v3.0)

- Nokia (bt v2.1)

I've done a lot of test (also flashing back JB) and here the response:

- With KK (stock) the audio quality during phone call is very poor (all three headsets).

- With KK (stock) the audio quality is good when I forward media audio to the bt headset (only Plantronics support this function).

- With JB (stock) the audio quality during phone call is good with Plantronics and very poor with Samsung (Nokia not tested).

- With JB (stock) the audio quality during media audio forwarding has not been tested.

- With CM11 the audio quality during phone call is very poor (Plantronics and Samsung tested).
