I like the fingerprint scanner but the larger size is not my taste. If I can get it for the same cost of the G4 from tmobile, I'd consider upgrading
[G4 General] One Twelve:
wish someone would hold a G4 case next to the v10 and then we will see how big it is.

g4 with a uag or spigen case is 185-190 gms already.
[G4 General] Spaceboy60:
192g is 13 grams heavier than moto x style which is heavy enough already. And that's without a case. Now if it was Shatterproof that'd be different matter
[G4 General] DoKaTSuYa:
192g is the same weight than the IPhone 6S+ which Apple sells by millions and millions...

Oh and IPhone 6S+ has an 5.5 inches screen which is smaller and in drop test sucks.
[G4 General] Spaceboy60:
Very true. Still doesn't mean it's not too heavy though. Just means there's a lot of apple fanboys who'll buy whatever new product they bring out regardless.
[G4 General] kyogiro:
The V10 is indeed quite impressive but still the same (very capable S808) and battery while having more screen estate and a secondary display. Battery life wasn't the strongest suit of the G4, so I'm a bit worried towards that.
[G4 General] Swizzle82:
They'll probably do a battery promo again and it won't matter. I havw spares on my g4 and did on my g3 so I didn't care about battery life at all. Just swap it and you're good to go..
[G4 General] kyogiro:
While I do like having removable battery to change it over the years, so my phone would always feel like brand new even after a few years, I really dislike bringing extra stuff aside from earbuds.
[G4 General] Sharpshooterrr:

0:55 - that looks nasty.
[G4 General] the_scotsman:
Meh, not worth the upgrade. Wait until Q2 next year and the new flagships will be out anyway. The V10 has a larger display, so it has a lower DI, meaning the G4 is sharper. I don't record much video, so those changes are of no use to me.

If I hadn't already bought the G4, I might be tempted by this instead, but not at this point. I'll wait for the G5 :)
[G4 General] Swizzle82:
I'm not a custom rom kind of guy, but I still worry about development on this considering the G4 just came out and a lot of those developers are here... I only need root, twrp, and xposed, which with the Tmo version shouldn't be a problem getting twrp once it gets root. It looks like there will be a mixing pot of previous Lg, Samsung, Htc, Moto, and even Nexus users possibly grabbing one of these though. That might be a good thing for development, hopefully. I'm pretty sure I'm going to be picking one up myself. I am getting bored with the G4 as I've already had the 2 and 3. It's starting to feel like the same ol same for me except the manuel camera and the V10 has both. I like the durability and even if the "second screen" turns out to be a gimmick it seems neat right now. I noticed the back does have a slight curve similar to the G4 which will help with gripability on a monster phone. I do worry about size a little as I'll have to get a larger non slip mount for my car. As long as they offer a spare battery I'll be fine in that area. I really think this will still be a pretty good choice.
[G4 General] Naaser:
Interested in this as well.not sure yet, but seeing as my G4 has had all what i need. finding it difficult to find a complelling reason to move from G4 to V10 !!!!!
[G4 General] 0netw0:
Hi,

I would like to know, G4 battery will fit the V10?

Thanks!
[G4 General] Swizzle82:
Doubtful..
[G4 General] sharpehenry:
I am staying away from LG device after hassling with LG tech support. i had to send out to repair 3 times just to have them fix on rattling earpiece. they never did and all LG tells me is "oh i'm sorry it isn't fixed, please send it back and we will guarantee to fix it." takes them 2 weeks per send out to get my phone back imagine i send it out for 4th time, that's almost 2 month without having this phone since the launch date. called my t-mobile and they honored lemon law policy and sending me replacement and not "attempting to repair". when i get the replacement i won't even open it. i'm going to sell it along with all of my promotional stuff i got which includes: 3 batteries, 2 charging cradles, 2 leather backs (one is used, and other is brand new) 128gb micro SD, 2 cases, tempered glass, and a quick charger adapter. replacement unit should be coming in tomorrow and it's bye bye LG. service support is nice and all, but unhappy with their tech support.

let me know if anyone is interested. or check in swappa sometimes this week.

device was nice except that damn earpiece... tech support steered me away from LG.. shame, i really loved this device.
[G4 General] One Twelve:
Looks like the V10 has no side bezels.

Size comparison between G4 vs V10

remember to calibrate your screen using a credit card to have the proper measurements.
[G4 General] Andrewtst:
Can't wait the release of V10.

I am definitely upgrade my G4 to V10. :)

It is not a huge changes but following few point make me wanna more on V10:

- 5.7", I always prefer bigger screen, this size is my more preferable size. The 0.2" do make differences.

- Back is flat! This is real important as I am not a fans of back curve, it is annoying as uneven on desk.

- Wide Selfie.

- Extra 1GB RAM. More RAM always much welcome.

- Much better build material, I do like leather but G4 leather is way too fragile.
[G4 General] chaki-:
Following your logic.....next time you better don't buy a new car. Better get a tank (better build material, more power is always welcome, carbon is nice but way to fragile then steel....) :laugh:

Just messing with ya.

Go for it m8
[G4 General] Andrewtst:
lol, this is preferable. Steel on side always look nice and premium. I always put priority on design and material usage as material usage will make the device look premium or not, premium is part of the importance of design.

You love plastic all time is yours preferable also. :)
[G4 General] chaki-:
Don't get me wrong i like the premium feel also. But in that case i don't see reason to jump on the v10 wagon just yet.

Just my 2 cents.
[G4 General] One Twelve:
its not 5.7, you are in effect dealing with a 5.9 inch screen but only get one that is 5.7.

so the difference is 5.9 vs 5.5.

ok but when you use it in a call the curve is supposed to be normal, like landlines phones have a curve since forever.

what i like about the v10 is the manual focus in video, so no focus hunting as you can lock it. being able to either increase or decrease mic gain useful if sound is too low or too high and you can monitor the sound levels. There is a steady cam setting in video which makes things even more stabilised.

but its an 808 sold for a high price just when the 820 is about to come out. the size is the biggest doubt for me. the g5 will have all these features and still retain a 5.5 screen and it will come with an 820. the reasons to upgrade if you own a g4 are less. if you don't have a g4 and can handle a larger scren then the v10 makes sense.
[G4 General] Andrewtst:
I always change phone in between 3 to 4 months. Currently only V10 and Moto X Pure Edition interesting me. :)

I still count it as 5.7" as that extra screen not consider because it is separate.

I am OK with 5.9" as I use before 6.44" phone Xperia Z Ultra and also 6" phone Nexus 6.
[G4 General] harabinger66:
So something that isn't posted here that is a major difference between the phones is the DAC, or digital to analog converter for all you unfamiliar. Basically the DAC converts the electronically stored data at a certain sample rate, ie, just a bunch of numbers at bitrate interval that is then converted back into sound that we hear. The G4 has very meh sound for listening to music with, while the V10 has perhaps the best DAC to date (an ESS Sabre 9018C2M) and a headphone amplifer (ESS 9602C) as well. Both of these are positioned next to each other at the very bottom of the phone to minimize the noise, or processing interference from the rest of the phone. Basically, depending on how they pulled off the design (haven't seen a full audio testing done yet) this has the potential to be the best audio playing phone made to date! All phones have a DAC, nearly all are 24 bit, this is 32 bit. Very few phones have a built in amp to support both volume and some thump for more expensive headphones. This phone reportedly can handle up to 600 Ohms ! That's nuts! Basically, if you plugged in a pair of Sennheiser 650HD's into an iphone the max volume would be a whisper without an external amp. You can listen to them nice and loud on the V10.

I'm most excited about how this audio might turn out. Nothing official yet, but it sure has the hardware. Now if it only works with the design....
[G4 General] One Twelve:
Usable size is 5.7 but handling is as if it were a 5.9.

ah then its not a problem for you but many people struggled with the N6 let alone the Z ultra.
[G4 General] Andrewtst:
Nexus 6 actually still consider compact for a 6" phone. Z Ultra is another story, that body is really huge and can fit maybe even a 7" screen. It is too long and no deny a bit troublesome carry it.
[G4 General] One Twelve:
So i have to ask this since you're in Johor, ie close to the equator like me in India, ie not cold, no jacket pocket.

How do you move around with such large devices. You always carry some bag with you ?

I only have a pocket in my pants.
[G4 General] Andrewtst:
For Z Ultra they do pop out a bit as too long.

For Nexus 6, no issue can nicely fit in my working pants and jeans.

Sometimes I do carrying bag, but not all time.

So far I don't see any issue except Z Ultra.
[G4 General] Riona69:
The ESS Sabre DAC/AMP is definitely the main reason for me to switch. Hope LG implements it properly and I don't have to carry a separate DAP with me all the time! Can't wait...
[G4 General] DoKaTSuYa:
Very very complete video about the camera ! :

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o--PYXyd0lc

I wish we'll have the same update for our G4. G4 was already the best camera, but now the software improve.
[G4 General] player911:
The camera hardware is the same as the G4, so there is no reason we can't have the same results.

However I do not see this as a reason to upgrade from a G4, BUT I do not see a reason to BUY a G4 over the V10 for new users. This is basically the G4S. Mostly same hardware with a few additional, non-essential additions. I really like the addition of the 2nd screen, but I would have rather had an AMOLED screen for stuff like this. At night, it will be a flashlight when charging.

This is one area where I feel LG needs to relax a little. They are constantly throwing phones out so fast that they are competing with each other. The G4 is a beast and basically, IMO the best phone in the market. To throw this out and top your own device will literally kill G4 sales. Why release a phone so similar and so close to your best device? It is only cutting into their own sales of the G4.

Otherwise I like it. The Screen size is a bit much for me. The G4 pushes my reach to the max already. I can barely comfortably juggle it with 1 hand.
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] fede011:
Afaik you loose the OTA updates after rooting (because of twrp) so how do you keep your system up to date? or is this somthing that you risk in order to root your phone :(
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] Rashad83:
You can try to flash the stock recovery back and install the firmware manually or using the updater, or you find the firmware in flashible zip format and flash it through twrp. I personally rooted without keeping Twrp so i can still update.
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] fede011:
Thanks for answering! And yeah the problemas is that I cant find the firmware updates anywhere, so how do I root without a custom recovery? Can you tell me some hints to find the solution or a link? Thanks again ;)

EDIT: Oh, just found a way, and in case someone is also wondering heres how its done: You have to boot to twrp through adb, and then you can flash super su without flashing the custom recovery ;). This is the generic way to do it, have not tested im my P8 yet, will report later.
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] Rashad83:
*No need to go through all the hassle there is an automated script which i used it myself if you are still on stock recovery, it installs Twrp to flash superSu and then restores the original recovery.

http://xdaforums.com/p8lite/general/unlock-bootloader-root-p8-p8lite-t3164956#post62851688

*If you are on Twrp, you can download "Huawei update extractor" http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2433454 use it to extract your firmware (update.app) and take from it the 'recovery.img'. Then go to platform-tools where you open the CMD from, place the recovery.img in it you can rename it to "stockrecovery.img"

then "shift+right click" open the command line.

type: adb reboot bootloader

type: adb devices ----->to see your device

type: fastboot flash recovery 'type hear the name of recovery'

example: flastboot flash recovery stockrecovery.img

type: fastboot reboot ----->reboot device

some tutorial i found on youtube:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YfWYKREeQeQ

By the way the method for Twrp i haven't tested but that's the theory, so please do it on your own risk and do the required research. Goodluck:good:

Edit: Another method in theory if you have Twrp could be to use 'flashify' app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgollner.flashify&hl=en to flash the stock 'recovery.img' which you extracted from the stock firmware. No need to use adb.
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] fede011:
I still haven't changed the bootloader so it will be easier, I was waiting for the email from huawei but never received, but with the link you provided I was able to get the code instantly (since my model GRA-UL10 isn't on the list) its late here so will try it tomorrow. But I have a final question, will be possible to flash SuperSU without flashing twrp? There is a command that lets you boot twrp without flashing I just don't want to reflash my bootloader unnecessarily, thanks in advance. After this I will probably post a guide since it is not easy to find everything in one place.
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] Rashad83:
In order to root your device you need a custom recovery which gives you the ability to push files which is not possible with the stock recovery that's how i understand it. The script in the link i gave u automates the steps you have to do manually, if you are going to root the device using the command line you will need a su.zip to flash using twrp, and a twrp recovery image through which you will access the file system, and finally knowing the command lines to do it all which is all in all is a hassle. So booting into or flashing twrp isn't really a big deal (at least for me) as long as you have the stock recovery by the end of it all.

After upgrading to 7.0 or above. Nexus 6P has major issues with respect to WiFi services:

1) Intermittent connect drop

2) Unable to find/connect 5Ghz band services on the mobile device.

As per multiple fourms if someone says, WiFi is working in safe mode or reconnect/re-configure the WiFi services. All those bunch, do not have a solution to this issue.

I neither wish to step on to some other device/make, nor I think this issue could not get fixed. This is an amazing phone with a black spot (WiFi bug) on it. I would really appreciate, if google overcome this issue so that we can enjoy using the device and Google services.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MW Rajiv:
Hello everyone,

I'm using "Alcatel One Touch POP C5 5036D". The problem is, this phone is so slow that it takes about 30+-seconds to open up any app or function. i tried some custom Roms but all have some bugs or i don't like them. i searched many times but couldn't find an easy way to install stock rom but an Official Tool that installs stock firmware from their server & it takes so long. Even couldn't find a single rom that's fast enough & works everything perfectly. As i have mentioned earlier returning to Stock ROM is such a pain.

Now i'm asking for help to all you Developers, please can you make it easier for this phone users to install stock firmware like we download the Firmware package & install it with SP Flash Tool or something like this? Please it's my heartiest request to you all if you can, make this thing simple or make some ROM that really works fine for this phone users & oblige us. :(

hello I need your help, I have my htc one m8 like a brick and wifi for having no lights flashed a kernel modficado, this problem also happens to me with an eye htc desire, there some solution for unbirck cell? I tested with RUU and they tell me Error # 120 on the phone battery is below 30%, but the battery is charged to 100% pass this because I have Windows 10 ?, I read that Windows 10 gives problems with some RUU

someone help me?

My problem statement:

1. HTC One M8 is currently in boot loop. It boots approximately around 6 to 7 times and then enters to normal operation. This happens everytime i reboot.

2. WiFi is greyed. unable to "On" the Wifi. Still i can use my data through my SIM card.

I have also HTC Desire eye with the same problem and I can not return to factory, this seems a nightmare :/
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Is the phone modified (unlocked bootloader) and did you try to flash a custom ROM? If so, what ROM and version number?

What hboot and radio numbers (shown on hboot screen).

Yes, Win10 can cause the RUU to fail. USB 3.0 is known to cause problem too (does your PC have it?).

One thing you can try, make sure you are using the latest 4.28.502.2 as opposed to 4.28.502.1

All AT&T RUUs are linked on my Index thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2751432

Reason I suggest this, I've seen at least a report or 2 of better luck with the latest RUUs (Stagefright fix released in August) as opposed to the previous Lollipop RUUs.

Otherwise, you may need to try a Win7 computer. Win8.1 may work too. But 7 seems to be the most reliable.

No idea about that phone. Suggested solutions for the M8 may or may not work on the Desire Eye.

I would advise against assuming the same fixes will work on different devices (may not work or even cause permanent damage), and seek specific help from other Desire Eye owners, if possible.

and this man could get a RUU to serve in Windows 10 and are working wonderfully, and also use the method in desire EYE, thank you very much for your provided information, you are a great contributor

I have an AT&T Galaxy s6 edge that is stuck at activation lock, I am running 5.1.1 so all the simple bugs there used to be are gone. I have flashed stock firmware a good 10 times and have tried all the tricks I found. I could really use some help. I know there are plenty of other people who have posted on this subject but none of the fixes work.
