[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] falro1:
I have two LG G2 D800's that I both flashed from Stock KitKat to Cloudy G2 3.2. Everything works perfectly, except they both have the exact same Wifi MAC address so I can't use them on a Wifi network simultaneously. I've search tons of postings with some almost similar problems, but always another device, from years ago, etc.

Some notes:

I don't have the original boxes or printed MAC addresses (both phones bought separately on eBay)

I don't have a nandroid of anything before I did any flashing on either phone (I did but stupidly deleted it)

Cell Radio, bluetooth, even Wifi (apart from this duplicate MAC address issue), all still work fine

I did have to flash some Blastdagor ROM patch to make this work after flashing Cloudy G2 3.2 (Specific to the D800). BUT after that I reflashed (tot) the whole phone back to KitKat and same MAC address remains.

I flashed DorimanX on one of the phones to see if that would enable any options

What ultimately controls where the phone is assigned MAC address? I would assume the kernel, as it has a the HW driver and probably hands over the MAC address to the userspace. Or is it the radio image? EFS? (Is this more of a development question?)

EDIT: found and fixed, post link here:

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olie3146:
Long story short my phone need to go in for warranty repair, so I'm in the process of putting it back to stock, I don't know weather its the fact that i've just worked 2 weeks straight or that the turbo on my car blew up last night but I just cannot figure out the correct order to put the phone to stock.

Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction as ive been on this for nearly 6 hours now and am starting to pull my hair out.

So : my phone was unlocked/rooted/s-off

My phone is now back to original firmware, unrooted, has TWRP installed.

currently says software status : official (which is what I want it to say)

but says *** UNLOCKED *** I want it to says locked (not relocked) which I belive is doable seeing as I'm s-off

I'm just getting the entire process back to front I think. I cant do the process to lock it as it requires SU, but surely if I put SU back on it will go back to modified??

Maybe I need to sit down, have a break and a drink before I continue.

If you can help it would be very much appreciated. all I want is the phone back to complete stock, ***LOCKED*** ***software status official*** and S-on.

Thanks in advance
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olie3146:
Ok

So I took a break for the evening, and have come back to it fresh, but I'm still a bit confused

The phone is still S-Off, now in order to set the bootloader to locked I had to have SU, which I did, now the bootloader is locked I cant flash stock image.

If I have stock image I cant lock the bootloader as it requires SU

If I have TWRP with SU I can set it to ***LOCKED*** but then cant get back to stock image as it requires unlocked.

Someone please put me out my misery and tell me what I'm doing wrong, I'm normally pretty good at this stuff, but for some reason my brain is having a dull couple of days

I'm currently trying to fully work out if the N1 has sleep/wake functionality when used with a case. It looks likely that it's not got however, when watching this N1 promo video (http://tinyurl.com/q76cq4g) the user has what looks like an official case (seen @ 0:36) and which also looks like it fixes by magnets to the back of the N1, a nice feature.

The new HBO Now app in the Play store is not fond of being on a rooted phone. When I try to play a video I get an error message saying "Unable to play video on this device." I tried finding a fix similar to what is explained here bypass whatever root check it was doing, but looks like its not quite as simple as it was in that app. Also tried using RootCloak, but still got the error. Anyone have any ideas?

Let me know if I left out any relevant/useful info.

Hi!

I've recently installed the dev preview of Fire OS 5. It's amazing and really fast!

I've tryed to install a nova but, whenever i try to place a widget, my fire HD 6 opens the settings app :confused:

The stock launcher supports widget bye the space on the screen is very limite

I dunno :confused:
[Fire HD 6 and 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DoLooper:
The 1st time you place a widget in Nova you get one of those "what do you want to use" prompts with the always/one time buttons. The choices, android.settings, are identical. Top one is Fire settings, bottom is Nova settings. You apparently chose top one and said always. Far as I know the only way to fix is to reinstall OS :( but maybe try a different launcher?

EDIT: Geesh (head-slap)! Above is for OS 4. I can only assume that unrooted OS 5 would always just go to Fire settings. Too bad. (Of course they don't want you to use alternate launcher. Boo!)
[Fire HD 6 and 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edoardog:
Thanks forse the answer!

Oh well, i think i home that the devs world root Fire os 5 :)
[Sprint LG G4] djteotancolis:
My friend is bringing me an Sprint LG G4 from the states. Was trying to find information but was not sure if the phone is unlocked for International use? Specifically Kuwait and India. I know we cannot edit APN's at the moment but can we use call and texting?

If it not unlocked, then is http://www.unlockallcellular.com/united-states-sprint-lg-g4-unlock-code-np-202435.htmlthe way to go?

Thank you
[Sprint LG G4] leond:
you can edit APN via ##3282#, you will need your MSL -search this forum you will find how to get it. But you will not be able to unlock Sprint variant for international GSM use. Only Sprint can do over the air and the phone has to be active on Sprint account for this.
[Sprint LG G4] Sergykm:
Any chance unlock it now? Maybe flash or edit build.prop I don't know.
[Sprint LG G4] ijball:
If you guys don't mind flashing/restoring your phone using the TOT method. You can try it out. I tried it out and it was SIM unlock out of the box. To edit the APN, I used Shortcut Master (Lite).

I'm from the Philippines by the way. The LTE bands of this phone doesn't support my carrier's LTE bands so no LTE for me.

Hi,

I just sent a Sprint LG G4 to my family in the Philippines and it receives Smart SIM card. But they just noticed that it doesn't receive any calls. I can make calls and send and receive text messages. Any inputs on this issue?

Your help is highly appreciated.

Thanks...
[Sprint LG G4] ijball:
I'm not sure, is this on stock firmware? Can you clarify, so you can make calls, send/receive message(SMS), but not receive any calls while in the Philippines?
[Sprint LG G4] andoypordoy:
Thanks for your reply.

I am not sure if it's on stock, paid one cellphone shop here in california to have it gsm unlock. My sister who is currently using it in the philippines said that she just noticed that she cant receive any calls with it. In fact they tried calling it with another phone and it doesn't ring and even not give any notification for a missed call. The calling phone hears that its supposed to be ringing and after sometime it would say cannot be reached.

It can receive and send sms messages.

Again, thanks...
[Sprint LG G4] ijball:
I'm not sure if Smart Network can access LTE but can you check? If LTE is available, can you make sure that the network selection is not set to LTE only, since sometimes it can affect making/receiving phone calls.
[Sprint LG G4] andoypordoy:
It has LTE/CDMA setting but if chosen wont get a signal. They tried the other two setting (Global and GSM/UMTS) but gives same result.
[Sprint LG G4] ijball:
Try installing Shortcut Master (Lite) and try RAT_Selection(I'm not sure if it requires root though), then force WCDMA only if it will make a difference.

Just bought a LS991 that was supposed to be unlocked. Can it work on T-Mobile?

Hey everybody...

I bought a sim unlocked G4 from ebay. The seller claimed that it was unlocked for use with all gsm carriers, including t-mobile. After receiving the phone, I discovered that the phone was LS991 (Sprint version) and not the international version. If the phone is indeed unlocked as the seller stated, can I just insert a T-Mobile sim and start using right away? Or, will there be limits on the ability to make calls or connect to HSPA or LTE data?

Will the "APN" need updating to work with smoothly with T-Mobile? If anyone has prior experience in using LS991 on T-Mobile, please let me know!:confused:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pompeiisneaks:
I've tried several apps that hide root, and none work. Does anyone have any idea of the right way to get HBO Now working on a rooted device? My device is a Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2 running a custom rom.

The apps I've tried:

Hide My root (Can't even run on my device, fails to hide su, seems to work best on HTC devices?)

Hide Rooting Lite (acts like it works but doesn't)

RootCloak Plus (Cydia) I've added the app, rebooted and it still doesn't work.

Anyone gotten this working on a samsung device of any kind?

I was going to focus on hardware specific forum but really this is a more generic issue at least on the surface, how to hide root from an app.

Thanks for any suggestions.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snarksneeze:
I've got HBO Now working on my rooted Note 3 (AT&T).

First, I installed HBO Now and tried to watch a movie, which failed with the "rooted device" message. That lead me here, which got me worried.

Second, I installed Root Cloak via Xposed, went into Settings - General - Application Manager and cleared the data to HBO Now, rebooted. Tried to watch another movie which failed.

Finally, I installed Hide My Root and chose "Hide su binary", stopped HBO Now and cleared the data again. To test, I tried to navigate to / via Root Explorer which told me I wasn't rooted. I loaded HBO Now back up and was able to start watching a movie right away.

I'm guessing there are different root methods that can or cannot be hidden. If this didn't work I had planned to use a dual boot to install a non-rooted stock ROM, since my kernel itself is rooted (i.e. I didn't root via app).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkslider909:
I pretty much did the same thing. Had the HBO app stopped and data cleared. Hide the su binary and then logged back into HBO app. For a moment I thought it was working as the video played longer than before. But after about a minute it came back with the rooted error.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weathertom:
As mentioned above, this worked for me... Installed Hide My Root and granted it root permissions, hid su binary via Hide My Root, cleared data for HBO Now, and that was it. HBO Now worked fine (other apps needing root would not work while su was hidden of course). After testing I used Hide My Root to restore su binary, and things were back to normal, although I did have to re-grant root access to applications which previously had it (not a bit deal IMO). I'll need to do more testing during this trial period, but maybe I'll keep HBO Now after all.

Oh, and I should have mentioned I don't have Xposed installed yet, so I didn't do that step at all, just used Hide My Root. It worked on my Nexus 6 and Nexus 9.

None of the hide root apps mentioned earlier have worked for me on my rooted Nexus 10. The apps themselves are working, as attempts to modify system apps in Root Explorer don't work because of a lack of root privileges, but when I play videos in the HBO app they fail. Not sure what else to do here.

For anybody wanting to use it with Chromecast, and controlled by your rooted phone, you can.

Make sure to click on the Chromecast icon BEFORE trying to start the stream. Once you see the HBO Now icon on your TV screen, you can start the video on your smartphone/tablet and it won't complain about your phone being rooted.

Hi,

Ever since I got my G800Y a couple of days ago, I have been unlocking my phone to see these blue spikes on the side of the screen. This doesn't happen all the time but it happens ~ once every 10 unlocks. I have flashed cyanogen mod onto it, although it still showed up out of the box. I spent so little time with it stock that I only saw it twice and thought it was an anomaly.

I have my phones about and a photo of the artifact here: imgur(dot)com/a/GwzWL (sorry for the whole dot thing, but I can't post links)

It seems to happen most frequently when the battery is 100% (I have re calibrated my battery) and during night time.

It doesn't show up in screenshots

It seemingly happens randomly as I have not found out a way to reproduce these spikes consistently

Changing brightness doesn't work

Does anyone else know what they are/have the same experience?

I really want to stem away from a refund considering how much work I have already spent on the phone.

Thanks,

Luke

When I had my old T-Mo G2 (HTC Vision) I changed my splash screen and boot animation. On every device I've had since, I've been able to change the boot animations but changing the splash image has apparently either become impossible or fallen out of style. Does anyone know what's up with the splash screens? Did they get baked into some deep code or something? I found an old tutorial for doing it on some obsolete phone and it said you had to use android-info.txt but that's something that isn't used anymore. I'm just kind of a mod junky and I like my phone to be MY phone. Just wondering if anyone has any insight on the matter. Or is even reading this.
[T-Mobile LG G3] jobella:
Assuming you're rooted and you make backups of the files you change.

You will want to change the bootanimation.zip file and the shutdownanimation.zip file in the system/media subdirectory. There are poweron.ogg and poweroff.ogg files in the system/media/audio/ui directory too. Make sure you set the permissions correctly. Also you may want the files to be in the same resolution as the L3 so they display correctly.
