[Verizon LG G4] laurasaurisrex:
I came from the LG G3, which I kept in case I needed it, but I don't think I'll return my G4. It does miss taps sometimes, but I can tell it's a software issue, not a hardware one, which LG will most likely fix because of how much attention it is getting. I'm surprised that the issue wasn't caught during product testing... or maybe it was and they didn't think it was a big deal. Or maybe the testers were all people who still use their smartphones like they are pressure screens. The phone definitely needs a higher sensitivity than the default, but it really doesn't bother me that much. I've seen some people on here who I guess expect their phones to have absolutely no issues whatsoever, which is just unrealistic in my opinion. If LG doesn't fix it, I know XDA will, so I don't care. The phone actually runs a lot smoother than my G3 did, noticeably so. I got it mainly for the camera (which got some fantastic firework shots last night that nobody else in my family could get). :D

[MENTION=4959246]laurasaurisrex[/MENTION] touchesreen has been pretty much fixed in 11A.
[Verizon LG G4] lennie paz:
So do you guys think the G4 is worth a $200 upgrade from my M8?
[Verizon LG G4] spotmark:
Most definitely.
[Verizon LG G4] lennie paz:
I know they are close to releasing a root method, but what about an unlocked bootloader? If the bootloader doesn't get unlocked, what won't I be able to do, that I can do to the M8?
[Verizon LG G4] laurasaurisrex:
[MENTION=1118153]fr4nk1yn[/MENTION] - good to hear! I'm not going to touch an OTA though in case it patches any of the holes the devs have found for root.
[Verizon LG G4] spotmark:
If the bootloader doesn't get unlocked, we'll have to hope a "bump" type method is discovered, in order to flash ROMs.
[Verizon LG G4] Pipedreams:
Love it!

I dropped my T-Mobile LG G2 in the pool a few weeks ago, and tried many things to recover it. No luck. I was originally planning on waiting for the nexus release this year, but I'm glad I went in and picked up this due to necessity! Very pleased! I'm still in a bit of battery life shock after using the rooted G2 with the lower resolution, CM, greenify, etc, but I'm adjusting. I really miss the stock Android experience, but I'm okay to be patient for a bit. Just having this camera on hand has been amazing! I can't wait to learn a few tricks with manual mode, but auto mode alone has been incredible. I was a little displeased that Verizon disabled themes, but hopefully we get a CM build in the future to correct that. Overall, I'm very happy with my upgrade, and excited for the future to unlock the potential I foresee for this device.
[Verizon LG G4] adi_vastava:
I have posted a workaround to enable themes yesterday. Its in themes section; do you think that is wrong place for the message?
[Verizon LG G4] jmileti:
Exactly where it belongs. Good work. Gonna give it a go.
[Verizon LG G4] dilligaf56:
Just pulled the trigger on an unlocked world-capable G4, off-contract (as I need to keep my unlimited data). I'm going to stay on my rooted Galaxy S4 for now and not take any OTAs....will wait until a clean root and bootloader unlock is available......just though I'd jump in and say hello....!

Who is your carrier?
[Verizon LG G4] Dennisg34:
I would assume Verizon since he's in this thread?
[Verizon LG G4] geoff5093:
I was just confirming, because you can't use the global unlocked H815 on Verizon.

Will do - sorry about that
[Verizon LG G4] player911:
My G4 is great on battery life. I work in a basement office on WiFi. Signal sucks and is in and out, so it is constantly trying to grab a good signal. I use my phone mostly for corporate emails, Hangouts, Gmail, Twitter, and occasional Facebook. I use my phone pretty often and typically at 5pm, I am about 40-65% left over.

I recently was on vacation and yesterday was a lounge day. I use my phone for Twitter links to articles, gmail, work email, facebook,several phone calls, and general surfing. Pretty heavy usage. At 12:30am (bedtime) I had 14% left. That was all day of heavy use.

My suggestion is to slow charge at night. Fast Charging is great while in the car using GPS with the screen brightness on full blast, but I found a fast charge will deplete faster. In fact I Wireless Charge at night.

Fast charge is a great option to use when you need a bump quickly, but you should not fast charge regularly. Try using a slow 500mA standard USB power brick to charge it over night and see if you yield better battery results. I used to charge off of my old Cable TV box. For some reason that cable TV box gave me stellar battery life on my cell phone.
[Verizon LG G4] player911:
The Themes is mostly for the LG Home Launcher and basically an icon pack. Nothing fancy.
[Verizon LG G4] HLyons:
Thanks for the review. Thats exactly what I was looking for. The charging is something to think about. i thought wireless charging was not on this phone, was I mistaken?

last question for you early adopters, how's the sound. For some reason the last 2 android phones I've had (LG G2 now and DNA previous) had low sound issues and while XDA is awesome I hate having to flash a hack for something that should just work out of the box. My wife and son clown me all the time about how low the sound is compared to their iPhones. is the G4 at least decent or (hopefully) great with sound quality. Specifically as it relates to all sound profiles (BT Audio, wired/wireless headset, speakers natively on phone, etc).
[Verizon LG G4] dilligaf56:
I am on Verizon, but this G4 is labeled as a Verizon based phone that has been unlocked to also work on GSM networks. My current phone, the Galaxy S4, also was acquired this way, and it works as advertised.
[Verizon LG G4] jmileti:
G4 is loudest phone I have ever had. Too many too list but quality is what you should expect from a phone that doesn't have boomsound.
[Verizon LG G4] nrage23:
He is stating you cannot use an international unlocked phone on Verizon which is due to Verizon's use of CDMA networks for 3g. However all Verizon phones are sim unlocked so they can be used with other GSM carriers. You just may not get the other carrier's LTE bands.
[Verizon LG G4] geoff5093:
As nrage said, all Verizon phones are SIM unlocked and can work on GSM networks, both domestically like T-Mobile, and overseas., there isn't anything that needs to be done to make them unlocked. You can walk into Verizon, buy a phone, and put in a T-Mobile SIM and it would work.

I thought you were talking about the global unlocked model, which doesn't have CDMA support.
[Verizon LG G4] Tomyk89:
The G4 is the first phone that I've owned in years that was loud enough to not have to turn up to 100% every time i hop in the shower.

[Verizon LG G4] S1L3nTShaDoWz:
So far I love mine, just got my orange leather back for it today and it looks sexy as hell and feels premium, absolutely love it. In terms of UI it feels quite smooth like my M8 before my S6 was, very nice. I came from a VZW GS6, switched due to a battery bug that required me to charge my phone 2-3 times a day and the removable battery and SD card slot were enticing hehe. Before that however was my M8, still have it, fully S-OFF and unlocked, miss being able to use TWRP & all of the features I had on it, hope this will be just like it some day soon, really looking forward to it!
[Verizon LG G4] dmeeks72:
I am loving my G4 so far.

I switched from the T-Mobile ZTE ZMax. The only thing that the ZMax beats the G4 on is battery life. I could get 15-20h with moderate use on my ZMax With just a couple of days use, I've been getting between 10-12 hours on my G4 with moderate use.

The reception is great, has a nice camera that takes good quality photos, and you can get the sound on it fairly loud.

Came from a rooted note 3, running tweaked kk Rom. That phone is a beast! Which I'm sure the g4 is also, just need to get root and tune this thing up a bit. Also, I had a serious overheating issue. Found out the culprit was uccw widget. Removed that and overheating stopped. In case anyone else is having that issue.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] mobrules777:
wellllll that's not go name happen then. I just want an easy way to toggle 4g on/off.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] drexhex:
It can't be done automatically. The quickest way I've found is to use the two-finger swipe from the top to get to the quick settings menu then hit the cell signal icon. If anyone finds a way to do it automatically, please don't hesitate to say something! I get horrible reception at work so I now have to manually tell it to turn off mobile data every day. Kinda sucks.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] mobrules777:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] paulosantos_pt:
Hello guys, a friend of mine has a galaxy nexus with some problems.

When I turn on the phone, it starts booting normally, but a few seconds after getting into "desktop" it starts popping up errors saying that the process as stopped.

I've already tried a few things, but without success. I'm running out of ideas and here I'm asking for your help.

Things I've tried:

-Boot into recovery mode and wipe all data.

The phone says that the operation completed successfully, but after rebooting the phone remains the same. All apps, wallpaper, lock screen, etc. It seems that nothing was changed by this process.

-Flash a original google ROM

Following the tutorials, the first step is to unlock the bootloader with fastboot oem unlock. The phone shows a confirmation asking if I want to unlock it, I say yes, and it shows "status: unlocked". But after rebooting the phone it is locked again!!!

I tried to flash the room without rebooting the phone after unlocking it,

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-maguro-primela03.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
sleep 5
fastboot flash radio radio-maguro-i9250xxla02.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
sleep 5
fastboot -w update image-takju-imm76i.zip

The first command to flash the bootloader also says that completes successfully, but when I'm flashing the radio it will complain saying that the phone has the wrong bootloader version installed.

-Flashing via Odin

It fails when is flashing system.img to the phone

-Flash custom recovery - fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

The process completes "successfully" but when I boot into recovery mode, there is the original one and not the one I just flashed.

-emmc brickbug - partition scanner

I found this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1823918 and tried to run the partition scanner. As I can't have the phone on enough time to use adb shell, I tried to use this scanner via adb sideload but the phones returns an error when running it. (probably because it doesn't have busybox installed, not sure)

After trying all of steps above, the phone is still the same... nothing changed. Once, I managed to connect it to the pc as an usb storage device, and was able to copy some photos from the phone and deleted them. But after rebooting they were all there again. It seems that all write changes are not persistent.

I'm out of ideas now... Do you have any idea of what is the problem? Or any suggestion for me to try?

Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mugzylol:
I believe that there is a script in the android SDK tools called flashall.bat which will reflash the kernel, bootloader, recovery, ROM ect. I'm not sure how to use it, but you could potentially try that
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] paulosantos_pt:
Hi, thanks for you suggestion, but unfortunately it didn't work.

I had a look at the flashall.bat script and it runs the same commands I run manually.

I think that the phone might have some hardware problem... Normally I would buy a new phone, but I'm trying to fix it because it is important for my friend and for me because it is challenging.

I guess that the next thing I will try, will be trying to run emmc_find_brick script by [MENTION=3597010]hg42[/MENTION] via sideload
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nrichard7029:
Try formatting /system and reinstall android. Power your device into bootloader mode. Make sure your device is unlocked. Also, make sure you have the factory image downloaded. After your device is plugged in into your computer, use this fastboot command: fastboot erase system. This will delete everything from /system. Also format /data and /cache: fastboot erase data and fastboot erase cache. After that, try installing the factory image again.;)

Q&A for fhd kernel ( ZE551 ) with KVM & Bridge compiled. *need help*

Some developers prefer that questions remain separate from their main development thread to help keep things organized. Placing your question within this thread will increase its chances of being answered by a member of the community or by the developer.

Before posting, please use the forum search and read through the discussion thread for fhd kernel ( ZE551 ) with KVM & Bridge compiled. *need help*. If you can't find an answer, post it here, being sure to give as much information as possible (firmware version, steps to reproduce, logcat if available) so that you can get help.

Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy! :)

Hi there.

Possibly unrelated question, but where did you get the binary blobs from? I plan on buying the device soon (in early August) and develop on it, so I would appreciate a bit of help if you could.

Cheers!
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ycavan:
Well.. here's how I set up the development environment:

1. Install Root

2. Install Linux Deploy app from the market

3. Install Aparted from the market

4. Get a microSD card w/ at least 64 gigs & partition it to have at least 50 gigs ext4 using Aparted

5. Install Arch Linux ( i686 ) using Linux Deploy to that 50 gig ext4 partition

6. Convert Arch Linux from i686 to x86_64 ( google it ), you don't need to compile a new kernel because our kernel is already x86_64

7. Set up the basic build environment for AOSP in Arch ( google it )

8. Set up a link to python-2.7 as /opt/android-build/python

9. Make a bin directory in your home directory

10. Download repo from git archives to ~/bin directory

11. Make a working directory, ie ~/android

12. cd ~/android

13. export PATH=/opt/android-build:~/bin:$PATH

14. use repo to initialize the android-5.0.0_r7 branch

15. Delete all references for OMA-DM in ~/android/.repo/manifest.xml & ~/android/.repo/packages

16. repo sync

17. Download the latest source from Asus's website ( currently, 2.18 source has issues, so download both 2.12 & 2.18 )

18. un-tar the source(s) in ~/android

19. cd ~/android

20. source build/env.sh

21. lunch aosp_x86-eng

22. make minigzip openssl

23. make -f KernelMakefile TARGET_DEVICE=fhd build_kernel

If the kernel compiles fine, then you know you have a proper build environment.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Techronico:
Quick question about this kernel... Does this allow us to run a full x86 Windows build on our devices as a VM?
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ycavan:
That's the idea if you're brave enough to try it. :)

To get the best performance, you need virtualization and that's what the kvm modules set up.

Afterwards, you need an emulation layer that supports virtualization, like qemu-kvm to define the virtual machine. Unlike pure emulation, kvm sends the instructions directly to the processor(s) so the virtual machine runs at near native speeds.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Techronico:
Has anyone tried this and gotten it to work? If so, please share the steps to get it working along with screenshots. Thanks in advance!
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ycavan:
We're getting much closer :) here are some screenshots ( I know screenshots don't really show the performance ).

All in all, all 3 methods of connection are pretty smooth: SDL ( using XServer-XSDL as the X Server ), vnc ( using any vnc client ) & SPICE ( VMWare style display adapter, this also provides sound with the aspice app in the Play store ).

Edit: Added a screenshot of Epsxe starting up Suikoden 2, forgot I had sound on so had to shut it off pretty quickly since I'm still at work. haha

How to install kernal in my phone please .. Thanx alot
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ycavan:
You will need to unlock your boot loader first.

Next, download the newest kernel from the original link in the original development section. ( fhd kernel ... )

If you have a ZE551, get the fhd kernel; if you have a ZE550, get the hd kernel.

The file you want will end in .img.tar

Untar the img file.

Either backup your boot partition or make sure you have the stock boot.img around in case of problems.

Reboot your phone in Fastboot

Fastboot flash boot ( kernel img name )

Reboot phone and pray that it boots up. ;)

If it doesn't, reboot into Fastboot and flash the backup/stock boot.img.

But if you are really really new to this game, I would recommend reading around the forums for a bit before trying this.

I don't think you can unlock your boot loader with .22; I believe Asus patched that. You will probably need to flash .18 and unlock your boot loader, then update. I've also heard that .22 is flaky so I'm still on .20
