[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingFatty:
I also have this problem.

To clarify, my situation is for open wifi where the provider redirects you to a webpage where you click "ok" or "accept" to proceed.

The first time I connect, it's fine. But, when my phone tries to auto-connect the next day, it gives the error described. So, I have to manually open up wifi connections, view the list, select the wifi name, and connect.

So it works fine after some manual intervention, but there is a bug I think in how the G4 handles these types of open wifi connections, once they are saved in the phone's history and you try to connect again later. So there is a problem here, but it's somewhat nuanced and easy to miss.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s4vva:
Your description sums up the situation well.

Doing what you want could create a problem of another sort. read this.

http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/64380/stop-wifi-connecting-to-open-networks
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] offall:
No this is not the same.

i only want G4 to autoconnect to network I saved before, meaning the one i have used before and want to use it again.

The problem you are referring to is having android auto connect to random networks, which of course should not happen.

Also G4 currently does not connect to open wifi that doesnt require login either. Even it clear have good internet connection, it wont reconnect, which is clearly a bug
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] One Twelve:
see this is where it gets tricky, that post was referring to networks set up by a telco around the city. the ssid is the same its not a random network. This is exactly what you want.

you accepted it when you were in location a, now you are at location b and want to connect. so it should connect automatically ie no different than if you were to return back to location a.

You said home wifi works, so leaving wifi on, walk out of range and then come back in range and it connects automatically. And you expect the same behaviour with an open wifi that you accepted prior.

Way i understood it is that guy is complaining about what you want with open wifi :)
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] offall:
Thanks for clarifying.

I went back to re-read the post you pointed out. OP of the thread wants to block all the open wifi hotspots with paywall. It is not because he/she used one paywall network work in location A and doesn't want to use it again in location B. OP never used the paywall network (because it charges) and doesn't want to ever connect to it again, in that case, delete it from the saved network list should solve the problem.

In fact, Op also wants to use non-paywall open wifi, which is same as what I want here with G4. We both have the same need, which is auto re-connect to known, used, and trusted network. Here is exactly G4 cannot do and clearly having a problem. As I said before, even for network that is open, no paywall, and no log in required, G4 simply cannot auto connect, and claim "internet is unavailable", which is false and need to be fixed. Furthermore, even if there is a captive login, G4 should not refuse to auto connect before informing user so. While LG clearly has no problem sending tons of notification for their bloated LG smart notices, right now there is no single notice about WiFi auto connect failure, you will only discover the problem after you open WiFI set up page.

I copied OP's own words from the other thread FYI

"here are random open wifi networks everywhere that allow my Android to connect to their network but won't give internet access because there is a paywall"

"There are a wide variety of providers like BTOpenZone. I'd like to block them all, adding exceptions if I ever find a non-paywall connection"
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] One Twelve:
Right, but to find out there was a paywall he had to connect in the first place and it got saved and remembered.

also correct. So if you were to use a free wifi without paywall and it had the same ssid then if you went to location b then presumably also expect it to connect automatically. just like it would if you were to walk away from location a, come out of range, then return again. Have you tried this ?

wondering if there is some time out. say if you returned to that public wifi within 5 minutes, does it reconnect or does it also require manually accepting like if you returned hours or days later ? could you test that.

you're saying it does not even realise there is a wifi connection available. you have to actually tap it and only then it connects ?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] offall:
Thanks for the help! Below are my answers to

I will test this and report back, if there is a time limit, it must be no longer than 2hours, I just came back from outside in 2 hours and it won't auto connect

Yes, when it doesn't auto connect, there is no notification at all. The only symptom is no wifi icon in top bar, only after I got into the wifi setting, you can see different networks listed there with the one I want to connect have a small font sentence under network name saying "internet unavailable, unable to auto connect" , but if I tab on it, it will then connect with no error messages
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] One Twelve:
ok

then it does see all the networks as expected it just wont auto connect. i wonder if this has something to do with the network itself rather than the G4. did you say earlier you had another device and it behaved as you wanted. reconnected without issue.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] offall:
yes, my nexsus 7 had no problem autoconnect.

Since i had the problem, I test it whenver I can so tried 5 plus networks so far, all has the same problem.

Also I found it's interesting to test the time out hypothesis, if i simply turn wifi off and back on, it will autoconnect even after an hour. But if I f

physically leave the area but keep wifi on, when i am back in an hour it wont autoconnect, i feel that's means LG's fault in wifi scanning.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] One Twelve:
Might have something to do with location history. Try turning off gps and anything that would give an indication of location.

So in GPS settings set location to GPS only instead of the other options. Turn GPS off that means it will ignore anything from cell or wifi for location.

Any difference ?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] offall:
Just tried it before I leave and come back again.

unfortunately no change by turning GPS on or off
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] One Twelve:
Hrm, time is not important when it comes to your home wifi. you could be away for many hours, come into range and it will auto connect.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nytronx:
I have the same prolem at my school wifi

the wifi himself as no password, but you have a redirection adn then I must login with my school login. 50% of the time my h815 can't auto connect. I will try to update to v10e to see if the issu is fixed
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] offall:
Correct, my home wifi does have password, it always auto connect with no problem. Problem only happens when WIFI is open. changing GPS doesn't help.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] One Twelve:
ok, so with password it remembers and auto connects.

without password it pretends not to know the network even if it connected earlier.

So give it a password, anything you want eg, lemme in, the open wifi network will ignore it and maybe just maybe your problem is solved :D
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] offall:
:D I wish it is that easy, the open wifi network I normally use belongs to the building I work at, and the other one is public wifi at plaza.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] One Twelve:
Darn! so even if you give it a fake password it still wont auto connect ?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] offall:
If it is a open WiFi without password, G4 Wifi setting won't allow you to add a password, (as it says the 'security=none'), and there is no chance for me to get IT people to add a password to their WiFi network

Must be a bug somewhere.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaedenhudson14:
I know this is late but I may have a reason why it does this as my v10 does this too. I get this at my school. The network all of the students connect to is a public open network with its own firewall. You have to agree to the schools terms of service when you open your browser. We have an access point in every classroom so as you walk around the school it has to ping to every access point you go by so my guess is the phone thinks it is an unstable connection due to disconnecting and reconnecting constantly. Then you notice you are not on wifi. By this time you are probably stationary somewhere in the building. So you go to manually connect,and it works fine. So like I said earlier if you are stationary, you are pinging to only one access point to where it can connect without a problem. That is my rough guess anyways. Could be way wrong.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elfodd:
I know this threat is a bit old but I have the same issue, it must be the optimus ux 4.0 as I never had this problem with my g3 only with my v10 which uses the same version as the g4. I have the problem with the virgin open network in the london underground...I could connect automatically station after station without any problem on my g3 but on the v10 I have to click on it manually when I arrive at the tube...after that it connects to the wifi station after station so I has something to do with the timeout as well...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fizzle101:
Hello Everyone,

Please I am wondering if anyone here can help me with my project.

I am currently working on a university project of building an Android app that can connect to my ampache server and be able to display and play my album and song list. Something similar to “just player” and “lullaby for ampache”. I have already setup the ampache server and I can browse and listen to the music on the web player.

I do not want the app to ask for credentials when a user first launches it like just player or lullaby, but instead already logged in to the main page so that anyone can be able to view and listen to the song on the server.

I have had a look here https://github.com/ampache/ampache/wiki/XML-API but I do not know how to generate, the key, passphrass or how to use it.

I have also had a look here https://github.com/meandor/ampdroid but the source code seems a bit too much for me to wrap my head around as I am still pretty much a n00b in the Android app development world.

Please I really need help or someone to guide me with the connecting to my server part of my project.

Please, please I am begging anyone out there with any idea to help me, no matter how little.

Thank you.

The new GOOGLE Logo is out there

As you might have noticed... from the last couple of days.... there has been a revamp in the google search logo and also the abbreviated one.

As soon as i saw the animated logo as well as the smaller abbreviation... i thought it would be perfect for a bootanimation + bootlogo combo.

The good folks at Bhoot made my task easier by uploading the bootanimation on their servers. If you want to, then you can grab the bootanimation in a flashable, regular zip or a CM theme engine APK !!!

Also you can use the Bhoot App for this task.

The one thing that the people at Bhoot could not give us was a matching Bootlogo....

SO here i present A bootlogo for our screen size based off the newer abbreviated Google logo.

Hi,

I have a Xperia Mini ST15i with Carbon KitKat 4.4.4 ROM ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2577517 ) which was a call recorder feature. After enabling it, when I press record during a call I hear a constant loud high pitch noise. Not just me but the other person too.

The call does get recorder but you can't hear anything due to the high pitch noise and also because it's impossible to have a call with that loud noise constantly in your hear lol.

I installed a few call recording apps and none record and the only one that was able to also triggered that loud constant high pitch noise.

Is almost feels like some sort of protection but it's really annoying. Any ideas what this is and how to stop it?

Hi guys

Got my sw3 today and set it all up and then now it's randomly turned the screen lock on and I can't unlock it!!

Question .... Can I somehow do a factory reset without unlocking it?

Or is there a default screen unlock combo that may work.

Please help!
[Sony Smartwatch 3] david_seq:
Help

Turn it off by holding the power button for a few seconds.

then when it's off, hold the power button again until the insert USB image shows.

Then on that, press the power button twice and it'll take you to another menu.

Then on the menu you'll have 4 options. I think it's the last one that says factory reset. When you get to it press the power button twice again.

Hope that helps.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dontpannic:
A thought has just occurred to me.

The recent Nexus 5 rumours led me onto a thought train. According to some of the rumours we're seeing, the new Nexus 5 may well be, to all intents and purposes, a slightly different G4, with added fingerprint scanner and USB Type-C. The rumoured specs seem to show they share the same SoC (Snapdragon 808, Adreno 418), same RAM (3Gb), same camera sensor... etc.

Theoretically, if the new handset was to share these specifications and come with stock Android (as previous Nexus devices have done), would we be able to port that ROM across to our own devices, to essentially give us stock Android (obviously with work to unlock bootloaders, or a workaround)?

Except there was no nexus 5 port to lg g2. A nexus 5x ROM would make the g4 perfect though. If only we could keep the camera set up. Oh well. The 10N update helped alot with overall feel.

[General Questions and Answers] dgoodmn1:
I'm a noobie looking for suggestions on how to add external hardware buttons that can control any functions on a Kocaso Mid9200 tablet running Android 4.2.2. The basic goal is to push an external hardware button and play a favorite radio station in one app, or another hardware button to stop playing that app, and switch to another app and play specific favorites within that app. I'm open to writing macros/scripts that might invoke the desired function then linking a specific external hardware button to each different script. The tablet is rooted. The tablet is cheap and does not have either Bluetooth or NFC (so external NFC buttons like the Pressy or Dimple are not an option), it only has a USB port.

I've placed an order for a PCSensor Key Fere external programmable USB keyboard and plan to build macros keystrokes into that device to start the process. I've also started to look at using the External Keyboard Helper app to tie a keystroke to invoke an app. But I could use help in figuring out how to write a script/macro that could navigate within an app and select, for example, one of several favorite radio stations in the radio player app, and start/stop that station in the player. Ultimately I'd like to push one button on the external keypad, and have it invoke the desired player app, navigate within the app to select a specific station, and start that station playing.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

What makes you think this has anything to do with phone? That's a PowerShell script (which the phone can't execute) for editing the permissions on a registry key (which you can't do unless you already have control over that registry key anyhow, i.e. you would need to run it as Admin). It's not a registry "editor" at all, aside from changing a registry ACL. It might be handy for those who want to edit permissions on a PC registry key without opening regedit, but that's it.
