[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klzz:
Hey guys, first of all sorry for doing such a noob thread but it's literally my first smartphone ever, I just bought the LG G2 D802 and I really don't know what to do now.

I don't even know how to handle it correctly yet, like navigate around and stuff, so when I say I'm a noob, i'm the noobiest of the noobs; first time ever handling with a smartphone.

Since I don't know anything about anything in the smartphone world, trying to read the threads and understand anything seems quite impossible.

So what I've got a few questions;

What are the first things I should do?

Like

which apps should I 'immediately' delete or disable because they just a waste of space/battery

(I'll check a guide on how to do that :p).

Also, since I really don't know anyyyyyything, the fact that android is so customisable makes it really difficult to know what to do here.

Should I leave the stock 'operating system' or wtv it is, or is there like a general consensus on a 'best, less-buggy operating system' that I should change to

?

Is there a noob-friendly guide or something about this questions? Sorry if I'm asking things that might be answered somewhere else already!

Well for now I don't remember any other question since I don't even really know how to handle the phone well yet :x

Thanks!

I'm looking to move to one of these as my 8125 has died, what should I know? Also I have a few questions...

- What's video dialing? Is this a video conference feature?

- ATT says they will offer an upgrade to WM6 in Q3, anyone know if you will have to pay for it?

- How many of you have upgraded your phones to WM6? Was it hard? Worth it?

- Is it available in silver and black? I seem to see different descriptions of the phone.

8125 has died, what should I know? Also I have a few questions...

- What's video dialing? Is this a video conference feature?

Yes, not quite useful so far in my opinion

- ATT says they will offer an upgrade to WM6 in Q3, anyone know if you will have to pay for it?

Nobody really knows what is officialy going on with WM6, there are allready great cooked roms available that may be far better than the official one

- How many of you have upgraded your phones to WM6? Was it hard? Worth it?

I did, toyed with allmost all roms available for my hermes, and I was pretty happy with most of those

- Is it available in silver and black? I seem to see different descriptions of the phone.

No idea, as I have an Orange branded one
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] fr4gm0nk3y:

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snake3276120:
Sorry if someone has already posted it, but I cannot find it from the search results.

Basically I want to sunshine s-off my HTC ONE M8 UL, but it requires permanent root because I am running 5.0.1

Is there any way that I can root my device without unlocking the boot-loader? Otherwise it defeat the purpose of doing s-off (I know the steps to unlock from HTCDEV and flash custom recovery, etc.)

Thanks all, any help is appreciated.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Since you are on Lollipop, NO.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
Give kingroot v4.5 a shot then convert to super su with supersu me.

Has been having good success rooting lollipop even with locked bootloader devices. It has worked on my tab s and for plenty of others and my m8.

However my m8 was already bootloader unlocked.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Having the bootloader unlocked is a huge conditional difference (and therefore means little). You can

easily

root by any number of means once bootloader unlocked (flash SuperSU, TWRP built-in root, and I think towelroot works also).

HTC devices are more locked down than most. So kingroot working on other devices likewise means little.

I've read the kingroot thread, and I don't think there were any reports of it working on the M8 with a locked bootloader; and several confirmed reports of it

not

working..

Worth a try, maybe. But I highly doubt it will work.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jshamlet:
You *may* be able to use Kingroot to temp root, then S-off, though. There is a discussion going on in the Sunshine forum where people are getting S-off on Verizon Lollipop M8s using this technique. It isn't easy, and apparently requires a bit of good timing, but it's possible.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] akaleshnikov:
I'm returning my Galaxy S6 and going back to my T999V. With that, I'd like to update the ROM on the T999V to something that is stable, and manages memory well for multitasking. My priorities are stability in terms of OS performance, phone stability and multitasking.

Due to the T999V being deprecated from my service provider (WIND Mobile), and the last update being KK, will I be able to get good reception performance and stability from the newer Lollipop based ROMs?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] audit13:
I'm not sure that a new ROM will help with reception as custom ROMs do not include a bootloader or modem.

Try the latest official CM12.1. It seems pretty good to me and I love the theme engine.
[Samsung Gear S] xramzal:
I was on the fence of getting a Gear S because I primarily use hangouts (SMS integrated) as my primary messaging platform. I was aware I'd be able to receive messages on my watch, but not be able to respond. However upon getting my watch and setting it up. I got a hangouts message, swiped to the left, clicked the three dots.. To my surprise I had the option to REPLY or DISMISS. Replying works fantastic with either the preset messages, keyboard, or voice input, and SENDS THE MESSAGE OVER DATA! ( Not even SMS.) This is absolutely fantastic. I figured I'd post this here because I was looking tirelessly for concrete evidence on this before making my purchase and was unable to find any. It's also worth nothing, that if i dismiss the message from my phone, I lose the ability to reply to it from my watch.

I'm not using Gear S Notification extender app either, it's working natively.
[Samsung Gear S] nktwister:
Yes, viber and whatsapp work as well.. The only con would be that you can't initiate a new message from the watch like messages.. Also in viber notification, it allows to reply only the first time you see it.. Next time it shows only dismiss option..
[Samsung Gear S] xramzal:
I've noticed that i can ONLY reply if i have Android Wear installed also. I don't even have to open it, just have it installed. If I remove it, I lose the functionality to reply.
[Samsung Gear S] MedicD:
Good to know! I was using Gear Notification Extender (got my Gear S Thursday) but didn't like how it labeled everything as GNE. I look forward to using this. Now if I could just get the Gear S to last me a full 24 hours...
[Samsung Gear S] sbrownla:
Great! Thanks for posting this. Some Google apps play nice with Samsung features.
[Samsung Gear S] javy_tech:
Thanks for this info. I installed Andriod Wear and now I have the reply functionality for hangouts which I did not have prior to doing so.

Would anyone know how to get email notifications over 3g while the watch is "Remotely Connected" to a phone (Note 5 in my case)?
[Sprint LG G3] Konner920:
I dont know if anyone is aware, the sprint LG G3 subforum is lacking in kernels and roms. If you want other roms or kernels go to the LG G3 Android Development. not sprint. Almost all of the roms and kernels support LS990. I'm using Xenon HD with the AOSP 777 kernel. Euphoria OS 1.1 also works fine. They are not GSM only and most of them support all variants.
[Sprint LG G3] galaxyhero:
Ive been using cloudyrom g3 2.5 has most g4 port including system ui, also on google + there is a banned member from xda who made lion rom 5.1 and it is amazing for the most part. So weird that the other variants have a lot more custom roms than in the sprint lg g3 subforum. I guest sprint variant is least popular...
[Sprint LG G3] Konner920:
Right? I just found this out. I love my LG G3. Like a lot. I haven't enjoyed a nice android device in a long time, and I was just hoping to help everyone out since the subforum for the sprint variant isnt as busy with new stuff.

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frankenscript:
Hi folks

I get this notification frequently when I wake my new Shield LTE tablet up. It comes from the ATT mobile all access application. Interestingly I have never even once activated the ATT mobile hotspot. So it is shocking that it has turned off...

It started after I configured the native Android hot spot. I turned it on and checked that my laptop could connect via WiFi and access the internet. Then I turned off the hotspot (again, natively in Android not through the AT&T app)

.

Any idea how to get the notification to stop short of uninstalling the kinda convenient ATT app? I like it for monitoring usage of the data plan.

Hi, few days ago my sister's phone fell from about 1m on the ground and from this time it's dead. Screen all the time off, no vibes etc.

The phone is iNew v8 plus.

I've disassembled it, unpluged and pluged all cables, checked if hardware buttons are working(by multimeter, they are working), etc. but still nothing, phone is dead.

Today i've connected it to my pc and seems like it's not fully dead, because in Device manager it's visible as USB Modem Driver(COM3), it's connecting for about 5 seconds and then instantly disconnecting, and again connecting... endless loop.

Device is not visible for ADB,

Do you see any chance in at least recovering data from phone?

Thanks in advance :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zyadhakim:
Mostly for Mediatek android devices, it has a solution, which is:

-Install device's drivers

-install spflashtool

-download your smartphone's rom (suitable for spflashtool with scatter file)

-open spflashtool load rom by choosing scatter file

-untick all options, leave only preloader ticked

-click download button on spflashtool

-it should be waiting for device to be connected

-connect now your device via usb

-it will resolve usb connection problems ( your device's usb connection to pc will be stable )

-now reload scatter - tick all options there but untick preloader because it is already flashed

-wait up to 10 min

-turn your device on

Enjoy

[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Ozgurce:
Hi guys.

I dont know any other thread like this one but i wanna share it. I use different sound mods but all of them give me crackling sound when i try to increase sound little bit.

There is a simple modification for that.

× Copy the /etc/ysound.xml to your computer

× Open it in any text editor

× find the value "85" and change it the "125"

There must be 4 of them. You must change them all to 125.

× Move new ysound.xml to etc/ysound.xml and give chmod 644

× Reboot

It will increase the max volume value. So when you change thevolume to max you can see the real difference.

I hope it will work for you to.
