[LG Watch Urbane] toastido:
Did this yesterday. Great trick! No video but it's stupidly simple to figure out.
[LG Watch Urbane] Captain_Ron:
Thanks for the idea, Peter! I had an Apple Watch stand that I couldn't return so I added a water bottle cap to it and hot-glues my Urbane charging disk to it.

[IMG="Apple Watch Stand Converted to LG Watch Urbane Stand"]http://i.imgur.com/UrlRg4W.jpg[/IMG]

Because of the design of this stand I had to have the USB cable either sticking off to the left or up. I prefer up so I can put the watch on the stand in case I replace the band with a metal one later. If I change my mind I can rotate the bottle cap in the in the stand :D I also bought the Wear Charging Screen app which displays a clock screen when the watch is charging and auto-rotates to the correct orientation.
[LG Watch Urbane] sudaltsov:
I just got iwatch stand on Ali, but for some reason the coca-cola cap does not fit the hole :( What kind of bottle/cap do you use, lads?

PS And would really love to see that private video..
[LG Watch Urbane] pdqgp:
Here's a way way better option that's 100% perfect in terms of fit. This is one for the Urbane 2nd edition.

[G3 General] Soulfly999:
Hi,

today i wrote an news article about how to unlock the LG G4 (H815) with an official LG Tool on my german blog. (Only in german sorry).

http://www.androidkosmos.de/anleitung-lg-g4-offizielle-bootloader-unlock-ist-online/

View attachment 3346461

But then i read about that the LG Flex 2 got the 5.1.1 update here at xda in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/g-flex2/general/q-5-1-1-update-t3116107

As you can see there is also the new "Enable OEM unlock" in the developer options. So i think it would be possible that we got this options on the G3 with the update 5.1.1 too.

What do you think?

Link to the official LG G4 Unlock site: http://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev?categoryTypeCode=ANRS
[G3 General] JustPlayingHard:
Hopefully we do, Instead of bumping all the time :) saves developers alot of time and maybe LG will support AOSP like sony?
[G3 General] kjwaugh:
When you read the LG web page it fills you in on the procedure - your phone must be listed there in order for it all to work. So far only G4 Int'l is listed. I would't be hitting refresh until it changes - my feeling is that the OEMs and Cell Providers have a lot of "old" stock to move out first.

Well, maybe no one knows the answer...

I have google maps working just fine with gps. Though I can't help you much with your problem since I never had to do much work to get it right. My gps was just configured correctly in windows in settings -> connections -> gps (ie. other programs like tomtom can see my gps). The baudrate and com port for the gps needs to be set. Then as I started google maps I was able to select "track location" or something like that from the menu and it works.

On some variants it already exists. Mine's not one of them (SM-G920F).
[Galaxy S6 General] B1aze:
Options for removal of the S-Finder and Quick Connect buttons. Finally, without a build.prop workaround.
[Galaxy S6 General] paddylaz:
No mention of ram/memory management fix.

Reassuring.
[Galaxy S6 General] quatzar:
My app drawer is A-Z the EU unbranded does that if you want to flash it, ....XEU

I literally don't know what sfinder and quick connect are. putting them in the way of everybody doesn't make people press them.

Yes what is going on with the memory? too many apps stay and causes a crash eventually music stops playing doesn't look for next chapter of audiobook. But everything reloads whenever you go back. The worst of both worlds.
[Galaxy S6 General] 122ninjas:
It's a feature of 5.1.1, do people not understand its a general android problem on 5.0.x, not just Samsung, and 5.1.1 on any device will fix those problems.
[Galaxy S6 General] JoeFCaputo113:
The only thing I care about... Will the HORRIBLE RAM management issue finally be solved as promised by Sammy?? It is unacceptable that a 2015 flagship (especially with the specs of the S6) can't hold more than 3-4 apps in memory!! :confused::eek:
[Galaxy S6 General] LNJ:
Ram management is S6 specific. Memory leak is Android 5.0 specific. The S6 has both.
[Galaxy S6 General] CQ7:
Exactly color fade leak it's not as bad as the worse memory management in s6 rom's.
[Galaxy S6 General] mettleh3d:
So.. If they have and installed it - why is it not on xda yet ?

Seriously why isn't it?

Double seriously - I don't think they're running the old tmobile-galaxy-s6-edge leak either from their findings.
[Galaxy S6 General] LGSilva:
Probably they got hands on an internal test version with lots of watermarks on it.
[Galaxy S6 General] CQ7:
Sammobile just replied ti my question about ram management. It's still bad...
[Galaxy S6 General] iFlasher:
I was thinking on purchase the Galaxy S6 Edge after they fix the RAM Managment, but it seems that samsung is going to left all users with his poorly multitasking. Yes, it is an early build, but coming from samsung Idk what hope. It seems the only good multitasking phones now are the HTC M9, LG G4, Zenfone 2 and iPhone 6/6+ (Yes, iOS doesn´t have "true multitasking", but who cares about when you can have a good amount of apps in background without one closing for itself). Now Idk if wait or purchase some of the other phones :(
[Galaxy S6 General] mettleh3d:
God ffs really?
[Galaxy S6 General] CQ7:
You're right, to have a 3GB smartphone and can't use multitasking it's ridicolous. Why the didn't put 1GB of RAM at this point

---------- Post added at 09:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:18 PM ----------

unfortunately it is true
[Galaxy S6 General] monkeypaws:
I'm wondering if this ram management issue is really an issue or an exaggeration that is subjective. I mean I've had my s6 since last week. I can multitasking and switch between apps just fine according to my usage. Also it's a pretty release ...if it really is an issue at be it's something that would be ironed out by release
[Galaxy S6 General] 122ninjas:
Same, I have no issues multitasking or with apps closing on their own
[Galaxy S6 General] mettleh3d:
Try to use tapatalk, goto your desired forum and open 2 or 3 more apps. This will probably reset tapatalk. Heck, I've used feedly > Chrome > screenshot > back to feedly and feedly would open from a cold start.

Past weekend my gf was taking down notes in church on Samsung memo - left the app and came back to find all her notes erased because the app closed. Ridiculous.

It's just not pleasant to use. And to say the s6e's camera is good is still only about 2~5% of daily usage.
[Galaxy S6 General] iFlasher:
It is a REAL issue for a High End ~$1000 phone with 3GB of RAM that in reality appears to have less than 1GB. I mean, with 3GB you don´t even mind about if the apps are going to get killed or not, it is the last thing you hope for a device like this.
[Galaxy S6 General] monkeypaws:
I rule out xda already as it's always had issues for years staying in memory. Isn't chrome also a ram eater? Tried it and did notice the issue. I'm still within my return period. Came from the nexus 6. I can honestly say I'm stumped. I've jumped around a lot of tried a bunch of phones. I was very satisfied with the nexus 6 minus the size. Ugh.
[Galaxy S6 General] iFlasher:
Compare the Samsung Galaxy S6 with Asus Zenfone 2 (The model with only 2 GB RAM), you may be surprised how Zenfone with only 2 GB RAM beats the more faster Samsung´s 3GB RAM.

This beast can keep a lot of apps with just 2GB RAM, and better not compare the Samsung S6 with the 4GB RAM Version of the Zenfone 2 that is just amazing.
[Galaxy S6 General] monkeypaws:
Unfortunately I am in a position where breaking down payments with my carrier is my only choice . Otherwise I'd go unlocked and cheaper. Although the n6 just had a 100$ price reduction. So less for me to pay overall.
[Galaxy S6 General] PunishedSnake:

It may be however Samsung made it so much worse in the s6 version of tw

I could run maps and music in background on my wife's s5 my m7 m9 n6 and g4 but not the s6

So yes it's an s6 issue

---------- Post added at 06:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:51 PM ----------

Exactly this is more ram management than memory leak
[Galaxy S6 General] oxxshadow:
I really wanted to buy the phone, but this issue is preventing me from getting it. I am giving Samsung until july 1, otherwise, nexus 6 or g4.
[Galaxy S6 General] PunishedSnake:
Eveyones Usage is different but most people use their phones differently than you
[Galaxy S6 General] godutch:
How could management get any better, the system already makes full use of ram for cache?
[Galaxy S6 General] mettleh3d:
To stop killing apps so aggressively. 2gb device could easily keep a few apps and games in memory in a sleep like state without killing them
[Galaxy S6 General] godutch:
And then people will start to complain even more that their memory is used up. My apps stay in memory BTW.
[Galaxy S6 General] Fruktsallad:
Jesus, could people stop denying there's an issue here. Just look at any speed test video or try replicating the test yourself and you'll see the pathetic multitasking performance of the S6 in comparison with competitors.

For example, here:

https://youtu.be/x5mRrAkCiV8
[Galaxy S6 General] Shocky2:
The issue is definitely real, but I'm finding it hard to care to be honest. I tend to close apps myself and so long as as the previous app remains in memory (which it does) I don't find it an issue.

It's not like users realistically which between two or three games stored in memory at one time.
[Galaxy S6 General] Fruktsallad:
Well, as described by previous users here, oftentimes even the previous app is killed while jumping out and doing something like taking a screenshot. I almost never game on my device, but still encounter shutdowns like these multiple times each day. Highly annoying, and simply unacceptable in 2015, especially for a device in this price range.
[Galaxy S6 General] mettleh3d:
Okay but what if you could? And you enjoyed the seamless back and forth b/t background apps.

Because I know whatever your PREVIOUS device was - was capable of that.
[Galaxy S6 General] Sheldor1967:
I don't think that this issue affects all phones. Mine has no problem multi-tasking

---------- Post added at 08:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 AM ----------

---------- Post added at 08:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:54 AM ----------

I can, and not just the last app. G920i... Maybe it's because I have no carrier bloat...
[Galaxy S6 General] oxxshadow:
sammy better push out 5.1.1 fast, or else they will lose many customers.
[Galaxy S6 General] mikeyinid:
What you're explaining is caused by the ColorFade memory leak. That's a Google issue that has been addressed in 5.1.1, albeit while introducing several new memory leaks. There is a fix for that memory leak floating around though. Makes a huge difference.
[Galaxy S6 General] JoeFCaputo113:
False... S6 has aggressive RAM management. It's horrible.
[Galaxy S6 General] mikeyinid:
Not a soul on the planet isn't aware of the RAM management issue the S6 has. Thank you for your input. But the post I quoted is describing a general Lollipop issue, not a S6 issue.
[Galaxy S6 General] JoeFCaputo113:
Umm no.... The post you quoted says "music gets killed playing in the background", that would be the aggressive RAM management the S6 has. S6 PROBLEM, NOT LOLLIPOP!! When will people realize this SMH...:confused::rolleyes:
[Galaxy S6 General] mikeyinid:
You really should do some research on the issue instead of posting incorrect information. The music being killed is caused by the ColorFade memory leak and can be fixed. Come at me with something legit next time.
[Galaxy S6 General] JoeFCaputo113:
And your proof is where?? Look at all S6 forums... there is a VERY apparent RAM management issue. The S6 sucks at managing RAM and kills background apps. This is a fact. So maybe you should do some research guy.

And one more for ya: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pqk75-xE27c
[Galaxy S6 General] Xileforce:
There is certainly something wrong with how the S6 uses ram. My Nexus 6 used about 1/4 of ram from boot. My S6 boots using over half of it. Samsung also has a swap partition by default meaning they are also swapping ram to the disk in order to not run out of ram. This is very bad. I'm not sure if its because of the ROM side or the kernel side though. My guess would be ROM side as I can't find anything in kernel that would cause this. I'm also reluctant to blame it all on a ram leak because its not a slow climb, its instantly using 60% of the ram. I'm going to play around with ksm and see if that can clean it up. Maybe Samsung is doing something like loading up many parts of the ROM into ram by default. I don't really know...
[Galaxy S6 General] JoeFCaputo113:
Do you think it can be fixed so we can truly multi-task like on the G4/N6/ZenFone??
[Galaxy S6 General] mikeyinid:
LOL. You have no clue what you're talking about...

It does in fact use a swap partition, however Samsung is using zswap which is a virtual swap in RAM. The pages are never actually swapped. I've done tons of research on this, disabled zswap, deleted/resized the swap space. I saw ZERO change in the way the S6 utilizes its LMK and OOM stuff. LMK is also a joke, you can totally disable it and while you do see a slight improvement you'll still never be able to have more than 5 or 6 apps kept alive. I think the real problem is TW uses to many resources, and sets the OOM values on non-essential processes to low not allowing them to be cleared. Looking in settings>application manager at available RAM is very misleading. It'll tell you there is 500mb to 1.4gb free when in reality there is less than 50MB. Open a terminal and start an elevated shell, run "cat /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree" and see whats actually going on. swap will never be full, zero page writebacks, and almost zero free memory...

Lemme try to help clarify. Yes, the S6 does indeed have a sever memory management issue. But, when people are having music killed it's not from the memory management in and of itself. The colorFade memory leak is consuming RAM, never releasing it. So apps have no choice but to close. Google it, I'm sure with 5 minutes you'll see what I'm talking about. After I patched the memory leak for the T-Mobile S6, I haven;t seen nearly the same amount of issues as were prviously reported. The patch DOES not fix the awful memory management, it prevents memory from being consumed by the leak.
[Galaxy S6 General] JoeFCaputo113:
Wow bro... great comeback to my factual evidence lmfao. It's ok to be a fanboy, but to the extent of denying factual evidence is just dumb and fanboy on another level hahahahahaa. Care to explain.... :rolleyes::eek: DOOOHH

I could go on, and on. But hey, You're the guy that knows everything here at XDA so I'll leave you to it :cool:
[Galaxy S6 General] JoeFCaputo113:
Lol you are clueless... Bc that is not AT ALL what we are talking about here..
[Galaxy S6 General] Xileforce:
Indeed you are right about zswap! I missed that in defconfig. Very interesting. Zswap is basically just zram, but with the ability to overflow onto a disk swap device if necessary from what I've read. I'm going to screw around with all the kernel memory management stuff and see if it does anything just for fun. Highly doubt it though. :( great explanation btw.
[Galaxy S6 General] mikeyinid:
Yea, I've messed with a ton of stuff trying to improve memory management, even if only a little. I have a S4 running TW 5.0.1 bone stock, and with 1GB less RAM it'll keep just about anything I use in memory. I think it's on the ROM side, and I think Samsung will have to make some sort of drastic change to fix it.

Wjile I have you're attention, try adding lz4 as the zswap compressor. I know lzo is what Samsung has gone with, but lz4 is something like 10x's faster. I'm curious...
[Galaxy S6 General] Xileforce:
Yea I fear you are right. Have you tried raising vfs cache pressure over 100? Might help a tad :/ its just crazy because on my nexus I could set my ram settings to try and hold as much stuff as possible in ram and still not get close to 3gb of use...and this thing just eats it.

---------- Post added at 01:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:04 PM ----------

Yea lz4 may indeed help, problem is it also uses slightly more space. Meaning less stuff packed into the same area. But maybe the increased speed would be worth it. I'll have to try building lz4 support in. I'll let you know if I do.
[Galaxy S6 General] mikeyinid:
Since the "swap" space isn't ever close to full I don't think swicthing to lz4 will be that big of a deal. If you get a kernel compiled with lz4 feel free to shoot me a PM, I'll be happy to test it and provide relevant memory usage feedback.

I have messed with the pressure. And swapiness (Samsung set it at 120 by default?) And didn't see any improvement.

---------- Post added at 02:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:08 PM ----------

For anyone curious, LMK and ADJ can be set with init.d scripts. Know what you're doing, do some research before messing with this stuff. Here is a sample script, the values can be adjusted.

Here is an awesome thread that will tell you everything you need to know about the subject.

*NOTE The swap disk size in the script below is NOT the size Samsung uses on the S6. Samsung actually went with ~1.2GB for whatever reason. Also notice swapiness is set to 120, that is the default on the S6.
