[LG V10 General] MechaMorph:
That's just it though. Nexus 6 was $650 straight up with far less hardware then the V10. V10 absolutely could have been the Nexus 6P. Just take away the secondary screen and V10 is an amazing pure Android device that seems to be perfectly designed for Android 6.0.

Honestly I think I'm JUMPing from my Nexus 6 to the V10 next month. I'm tired of screen burn-in on AMOLED screens. My N6 has burn in in the soft key area and it's not even a year old yet. I'm not happy with Google not selling the new Nexus devices through carriers (after doing it for 6 years) because they instantly alienated so many Nexus fans. I'm tired of them not using hardware encryption, don't know if V10 will either, but if you talk up a feature and then half-ass it why bother with it?
[LG V10 General] H. Clarkson:
Honestly, I find the styling and features of this phone more appealing than the Nexus 6P, but unfortunately, this phone will never get the same hype the Nexus will.
[LG V10 General] kms108:
I also think google is trying to get a relationship going with these major Chinese manufacturer, this help them to connect well with the government, Lenovo, Huawei and a few other brands are important factors, and I think are government supported.

I don't know about the CCP.

But google wants to work with as many vendors as possible. its good for android and gets them even more people to mine.

this should have been the note 5. other than the chipset it's right on par with what the note 5 does. if it only had a stylus...

I'm upgrading my note 3 to this after buying nothing but samsung stuff (lack of carrier updates had no decision in my purchases. and I don't hate touchwiz. I liked samsung stuff up until they went igalaxy on us).

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Schockriegel:
Hi guys,

I own an Nexus 4 with parts of the screen not responding. I got a new phone now (Ecoo E04 Plus), now I want to build a iPod-alternative. Now to my question, whats the best ROM for that purpose? It needs a long battery life in airplane mode. Second question anyone nows an that changes ur homescreen to a nice media player? (I thought of Themer) And my third question is what kernel would you prefer? Thanks for your help.

Lukas

PS: Sry for my bad english, I'm only english basic course. ;)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ttheodorou:
i would suggest stock rom with a few mods or a custom rom. the important thing is custom kernel.

the way i would do it is:

1. stock with xposed framework+gravity box. that way you can enable volume keys to change track

2. chroma rom. ia currently use chroma rom an it is rock stable and it has tweaks built in one of them is volume keys to change track.

in both cases i would install a custom kernel f.e. franco kernel for better battery life. if you want to maximize the battery life you can undervolt/underclock/disable cores. my phone is always undervolted 150mV.

my advice is undervolt (undervolting to much will reboot your phone. my cpu undervolt limit is 150mV so keep that in mind)and disable two cores. two cores are already capable to handle everything. the cpu frequency should be 384mhz - 1.3ghz or 1.5 ghz. see what is good for you. know that the higher the mhz the more power you need

also remember to disable sync and, if you don't need, don't install google services for battery again.

for maximizing battery i don't know which android version is best. i would go to android 4.4.4 or 5.1.1

for home screen i would suggest a widget. also you can also make your player start automatically when android start. there a lot of app in playstore for that.

P.S. if you encourter any stuttering during music playback one reason could be the low frequency of the cpu. i had a problem like this some time ago that is no more on android5.1.1. the solution for me was to change the lower cpu frequency to 512mhz or 700mhz. this solved my problem.

P.S.2 for changing the kernel setting i use franco kernel app. it is a paid app and simple to use. the free franco kernel will flash the appropriate kernel for you. you can find a lot of apps in the store that are free one populare is synapse if i remember correctly.

if you need anything else feel free to ask. hope i helped
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ulremember:
Good Day to all.

At work my phone switches from 4g to 3g often. I work on the Waterfront and my signal changes often. If I lock it on 4g thru hidden menu, it works for a while the I get the red "X" and no signal. I have to go back and change it to LTE/Cdma. After I do that it will go to 4g . Then 3g.

I have tried changing the band order the gttools. It only happens at work. Is there a setting that I can try to improve my 4g lock?

Or, should I do the carrier mod to a different carrier?

Any and all suggestions are appreciated.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhill110:
The second and third sentences of your post are telling. There aren't any settings you can change to improve signal strength. About the only thing you could do would be try different modems but at best the difference would be negligible.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] Adamantinepiggy:
What's the deal with t-mobile S6 DNS name resolution...

If I'm on wifi (anyone's wifi, not just through my AC1900 Nighthawk) anything that requires some sort of name resolution is slow as hell? For example, when browsing websites (and is especially prominent using the Samsung browser, but not as much with others), there are 2-15 second delays before a website that has not been loaded before will come up. Another example is any game that connects frequently to a server (like google play or game data servers) somewhere like Summoners War or Star Wars Uprising (the only two games I generally play). They games will sit and do nothing on a black screen or spinning icons forever and adds 30+ seconds on simple stuff like starting the game. It only does it on WIFI. The phone is completely stock on latest lollipop, however it has done it for all prior releases too.

How do I know it's a DNS issue? Because if I use DNSSet (On Google Play Store). Everything, including games, suddenly works as it should with no delays.. Yes it fixes the problem I'm having, but I SHOULDN'T have to!! I've reset to factory, 3 times now and re-installed every app in testing, and it's always there. it pisses me off to no end as it won't go away!

Does anyone else have the latency with WIFI DNS name resolution? Can someone else try this? Using the Samsung browser (because it's the worst offender), go into the app manager and clear the browser cache. Now on "WIFI" manually enter some site and time how long before it opens it (On mine the sites take an extra 4-10 secs to load). Turn off the WIFI, do the same cache clear on 4G LTE and it's much faster to load web pages. As I mentioned, WIFI DNS name resolution seems to affect all web-related browsing, but shows less impact with other web browsers. Now if I load DNSset that I mentioned above, the name-resolution latencies are all gone.. but I don't want to have to use DNSSet as it messes up my work corporate WIFI connections.

After 4+ months with this phone, I am so tired of stupid little issues...

Getting rom builder onto Microsoft lumia 640 (Windows 8.1)?

Howdy all,

This is my first post so please bare with me :)

I was hoping to install a custom rom (android) onto my lumia 640, but I've been stopped in my tracks because from loads of different websites, instructions pointed me towards installing ROM Builder via uninstalling Extra + Info and then re installing it onto the SD card and then using the previously deployed app CustomWPSystem to replace it with Rom Builer, (I would post a link to the instructions, but it wont let me, but if you type in "How to Jailbreak and Unlock your Lumia Windows Phone" its the first link I believe, website is windowsblog)

. But this can't be done, I'm not sure whether its due to an update of some sort from Microsoft or I'm doing something wrong but the store tells me I can only install Extra + Info to the Phones memory and not the SD Card, I've made sure new apps, downloads and what ever else is set to install to the SD Card. SD Card permissions is green inside CustomWPSystem and everything else is as should, the thing is if I decide to install CustomPFD by modding/replacing the app Preview for Developers, it works fine and I can change the boot up logo, shutdown logo etc..

So after all of that explaining my question is, how can I get to install Rom Builder or install the android custom rom? Is there another way?

I am fine with having to hard reset my phone if needs so just tell me what needs doing and I'll do it

Cheers guys,

Excuse me, but what would be the point of installing Android ???

You get as many Android devices as you want for all prices, while Windows phones are so rare...

I could understand years ago, when Android was just starting and people wanted to test it out of curiosity (or to show off) : then Windows Mobile was a real, open and all purposes OS and we could either multi boot on the SD card, or replace the ROM.

But now bootloaders are locked and Android is everywhere, so why would you painfully pick one of those rare Windows phone to trash it, while you can just pick any Android phone instead ???

Well, since i no longer plan to develop apps for it I'd llve to slap a copy of android on it instead. Dont get me wrong, i will get another phone and it will be android, at that point my lumia 640 will collect dust in a draw or go sit in a landfill somewhere. If i could get android on it, I would definately do that.

[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] russiandivxclub:
Quick question if possible.

After about 5 minutes of play in all 3D games it looks like device starting to Throttle. All games loose FPS and become unplayable. I mean Order and Chaos 2 , after about 5 mins I am getting like 7 FPS. Unacceptable.

Now here is the question. IS there anyway to combat that I mean force CPU to be on specific clock or may be lover clock so it's not 100% but not 35% when CPU goes to safe mode.

Anyone ?
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] russiandivxclub:
Also another thing. Help me understand something. All tests I do like 3DMark ot AnTuTu I am getting great results. Like in AnTuTu 5.7.1 I am getting 63059 and that an amazing result but once inside the game like I said before I clearly see game run just fine and then slowing down BIG time. Yet in let's say 3DMark I see temperature holing at steady 43C for all duration of the test.

May be I am expecting something that does not exist but I had OPO and I had better and smoother experience with games.

So with that I have a question. Is there a tool that will basically simulate 3D game play and will show on the screen in real time temperature, clock speed of CPU/GPU so I can see what is happening (beside 3D mark that showing nice graphs after) cause I feel I am going crazy. How tests showing me one thing yet in real life it's complete different experience. I need to know why games are slowing down.

Also as we know next Nexus 6P will have 810 v2.1 with diffirent clock speed just a bit. So clearly QualComm fixed overheating issue otherwise Google never would of put it in. So yeah, I am confused.

Hello, I think I have bricked my phone.

It is a Samsung Galaxy A3 SM-A300M

I used the TWRP Manager app and I think I loaded the wrong recovery image for my phone.

The app said it installed the recovery succesfully then asked to reboot into recovery. I accepted and the phone rebooted but never entered recovery, it just vibrates every 2 seconds.

Now it wont show anything on the screen, just vibrates every 2 seconds

I've tried the following with no success:

1) holding volume up + power + home

2) holding volume down + power + home

3) holding volume up + power

4) holding volume down + power

5) holding power button for more than 2 minutes

In every case it just keeps vibrating

Please consider that the Samsung Galaxy A3 is a unibody model, so I can't take out the battery.

What would you say are my options?
