WiFi Bug

I am having an error where when I boot up the phone for the first time after installing, I enter the WiFi password, but it says connection failed. If I skip this and skip the tap and go screen, it says "Google Play Services has stopped" and the phone will reboot on its own. If this issue can be fixed, I will be able to try out the ROM, as it seems like it would tick all my boxes.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MBroda:
Hi

We already know that device encryption has almost no impact on performance in Galaxy S6 (http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s6/general/impact-encryption-t3081728) but how does it look in the case of LG G4?

Has anyone tried encryption?

Is it possible to use knock code to unlock screen on encrypted device?

Mac
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Makster:
Snapdragon 808 does AES encryption and, iirc, SHA checksums in hardware, just like S6's 64-bit Exynos. That means that unless LG screwed up, encrypting the phone should have at most negligible effect on G4's performance.

Screen unlocks have nothing to do with phone encryption. The latter simply means encrypting its file system, nothing more. So, the answer should be "Yes."

However, it's up to the security implementation on the phone. For example, on my GS3 enabling phone encryption disabled pattern unlocking. But that was Samsung's doing, not some inherent property of encryption.

---------- Post added at 10:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:52 AM ----------

Correction: You are not encrypting the file system, but the underlying NAND.

Lack of sleep.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hendusoone:
With an encrypted G4, the only options available for screen lock are PIN and Password. All others cannot be selected.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Makster:
So they did restrict it.

That sucks. Personally, I think the knock code is more secure than a pin.

That should be fixable in a ROM, though.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hendusoone:
I think the main reason is because knock code and pattern inputs aren't available in the boot time password entry screen. You'd have to have an independent password for decryption, which can't be done with the stock software (which is an incredibly stupid design choice - I can't wait for root so I can set a different encryption password).
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Makster:
Great point. I forgot about that.

AFAIK, that workaround, with two different methods for two different authentication stages, has already been implemented in some ROMs for other phones, so it definitely should be doable.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MBroda:
So every time when I want unlock the phone I need to type password (or PIN)? Right?

Any impact on performance?

I know that Snapdragon has hardware encryption but as far as I understand this is not obligatory to use it (like Google did in Nexus 6 where encryption had huge impact on performance).
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MBroda:
Agree. They should ask for password after power up and then allow to use knock code.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Makster:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Nexus 6 built on top of the 32-bit ARMv7 805? It wouldn't support hw encryption.

As for the G4, the way I understand it, LG would have to disable it at compile time specifically not to support it. :)
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hendusoone:
Yes. You'll need to enter the password (or PIN) when you boot your phone, during the boot process. You'll also need to enter it any time you unlock the screen. You can still use Smart Lock to unlock the phone automatically when certain conditions are met, but that won't help during the boot process.

I haven't run any benchmarks... if you have one in mind, give me a link and I'll give it a run on the encrypted device. Someone else will have to provide unencrypted benchmarks, though.

Before I encrypt my device, does anyone know if we can decrypt it? The menu says it is not reversible. I am not rooted, and don't plan to yet (I have a sprint model and there's no kdz file to get back to stock if I break something)
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Michalko5896:
Yes, you can. Factory reset will remove encryption, but only on 5.1

On 6.0 encryption is mandatory so you can't use your phone without encrypting data first.. ;)

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barcodelinux:
I am rooted running Genysis 3.8. To encrypt, I had to unroot (within SuperSU app) && wipe cache && reboot THEN encrypt. Do NOT choose bootup PIN/PW, only lockscreen. There are a lot of FC's that prevent you from loading the keyboard to input anything.

As far as the PIN/PW thing on lockscreen, Genysis allowed me to have ALL lockscreen options including no lockscreen. Don't know if that is a bug or a feature.

As far as performance, I would say that I can tell no difference from unencrypted to encrypted.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] mycityofsky:
Hi there!

This problem exists in many ROMs, including the stock ROM(5.0.2). When I press the volume buttons while the screen is off, it usually doesn't work the first time. But it will work after I press it the second time or even multiple times immediately. It bugged me big time because I use volume buttons a lot when the screen is off. Do you have this problem? If not, could you please tell me which ROM you're using? Or does anyone know how to fix this problem? Any help appreciated!

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] davestone:
Thank you, I've tried that kernel, no GPU overclocking possible, neither via any app, or echoing the frequency to the max_oc settings file.

Other than that the kernel it is a total mess, phone couldn't shut off, kept restarting on it's own, the kernel got rid of my recovery.

I tried to flash a new recovery but, rashr couldn't do it, fastboot couldn't do it (even it said flash was ok), and z ultra multi recovery script could not do it.

Ended up restoring an FTF.

Seriously is any developer willing to uncover the mistery of GPU overclock on this device?

Somebody that can use it and wants to tell me it's rom and kernel combination, and how to get this thing working?

I would appreciate, on all the phones I've ever had, if a kernel had GPU overclock, it worked regardlessly of the rom, and echoing with init.d has always worked in the past, with the Z ultra nothing seems to work!!

Sorry for my broken english.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SUPERUSER:
What is your real purpose of being able to overclock parameters...? Before it was possible with kernels built by chefs but now we have Lollipop 5.1.x, we have stable releases of those (not called stable but they are "stable" in terms of runtime, we have ART which have been improved a lot since its debut. And the Snapdragon 800 powering your device does not put you down even today when its two years old.

If you have perfomance issues with your device..and feel the need to "overclock" either the cpu or the gpu you probably doing something wrong.

The only thing you will achieve by overclocking is your phone starting to cook..with ART the phone heats up very quickly.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] davestone:
More than 2 months i was not able to OC the GPU, doesn't matter the combination of rom and kernel.

If there is anyone that have a clue on how to do it, please help me out.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] judy4302:
If you wnat to overclock your GPU, you must have kernel support, or default is 450MHz:)

[Nexus 6  General] the.scientist:
Edit: I posted the below deal this morning but it was pointed out in the replies that an even steeper Nexus 6 discount was announced today (see Phandroid link below). The 32 GB Nexus 6 is now available for $500 from Best Buy and also the Google Store (64 GB for $550).

I wish to highlight a Nexus 6 deal which I could not find listed anywhere else on XDA Dev or by Google search. The unlocked Nexus 6 is available for $550 at Best Buy. To obtain it at this price, one simply needs to ask in store for the unlocked Nexus 6 and then ask for a price match against T-mobile's online store, where the phone is currently on sale for $549.84. I also called Best Buy customer service and was informed by a representative that this price match should apply in all stores and to any purchases made from the Best Buy online store.

I can confirm this approach can work, since I was able to obtain a Nexus 6 for $549.84 in store from a Best Buy store this last weekend. However, I also found a Best Buy forum post where it was claimed that the price match was initially not honored (unfortunately I cannot include the link since I am a new member). Therefore, the ease of this approach may vary according to the representative one encounters.

As an additional note, T-mobile starter kits, which include a nano SIM, are currently on sale at Best Buy for $5. Thus one can set up an unlocked Nexus 6 on T mobile for ~$555 plus tax.

I apologize if I posted this thread in the wrong place or duplicated a pre existing thread. I will monitor the thread and delete/repost if necessary.
[Nexus 6  General] jimi_pooh:
Is there any advantage (Other than the price right now) to buying the unlocked version -vs- the carrier specific one?
[Nexus 6  General] shamelin73:
The ATT and Verizon are locked to their respective carrier. However once you have them paid off for the device you can get it unloved to work on other carriers.

The hard was is all the same.
[Nexus 6  General] jimi_pooh:
Thanks. I'm thinking of getting one but I currently have the Note 3 on ATT and they use diff sim cards. I was going to simply pop mine in. Seems like I have to get a nano sim and add another line. I hate that the carriers have us by the sacs.
[Nexus 6  General] shamelin73:
If you get one you don't have to add a line just have AT&T switch Sims and phone.

You would have to buy out right. With the T-Mobile $100 off deal is a great way to save some money. Best Buy will match the price.
[Nexus 6  General] manup456:
Also Best Buy is selling the 64gb version for $550 not the 32gb Verizon and AT&T sells.

No need for price match anymore.
