[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lvnatic:
I'm planning to buy the s6 edge this month and I was initially decided to get the gold version. I usually don't like the gold color on phones but this one on the edge isn't very pronounced and in different light situations it looks silverish. A gold device with a clear UAG case looks amazing imo.

The problem is, here in Romania, the gold version is ridiculously exepensive compared to the other models. The difference is almost 150 euro.

So I turned my eyes to the green model. I think it looks spectacular, but I'm personally not a big fan of green in general. I've never seen it in real life, only in videos, and I just find it kinda awkward.

Does any one own a green phone and have some impressions? I would prefer opinions from male members. I can totally picture a girl with it, but I guess that's what I find awkward about it, I think it looks kinda girly.

If anyone has a clear UAG case I would love to see some pics.

Re

I have a green one but i like green in general. It was a love of the first sight. It looks either green, cyan or black according to the lighting conditions and plays nicely with light. Gold does the same. Green is in my opinion more subtle than gold. I just don't get it, how is it possible to have such a difference in price just for color? Have you searched other European nations? Here in Greece it costs 540 euros (any color). I don't know how much it is there.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaeMelo:
Deff go with green. You will not regret it.. Gold is tacky color choice for electronics imo.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheJoker79:
I work for a telco and am fortunate enough to own both the green one and the gold one.

The gold one is pretty and definitely gets some attention but I think it's a bit to shiny and not a very special color.

The green one is way cooler, it has a color I have never seen on a handset before, it's beautiful in the sunlight but doesn't beg for attention. It's more subtle.

My choice: green! Most of my colleagues also prefer the green :)
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nofam:
Green for sure - as others have said, it's very subtle/classy. I've just paired it with these headphones too - killer combo!
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hmily1993:
No doubt, green is great…And I don't like gold devices,also, there is no need to pay more for gold devices .
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheJoker79:
I shot some pics of both the green and gold ones side by side, hope this helps :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oposiasty:
Hi,

I'm creating simple tool for QA in my company for automated soak testing.

At the moment tool looks like that: https://github.com/michskolimowski/TAP-Droid

I'm gathering tap locations and send them back via adb, BUT I want to implement coverage for hardware buttons and gestures.

And here some issue shows up.

I've tried converting getevent output from HEX to DEC and sending it via sendevent - it has never done what I've 'recorded' via getevent.

Any gesture like swipe or pinch was causing random stuff to occur, from tapping in random locations to slowly moving finite amount of facebook icons from launcher cards to desktop.

Any ideas how to implement it to work correctly without using custom toolbox (therefeore: rootless method)?

I'd appreciate any hint, but if You want to make changes directly to repo, I can give You collaborator status.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaosrde:
I'm still not sure how it happened, but I somehow managed to crack my camera. Not just the lense like everyone else due to heat issues, but the actual camera.

So I figured I'd replace it myself instead of paying someone 100$+ to do it, and then have them charge me double for the part.

I made a pretty bad screw up the first time and broke the cable going to the power/volume buttons when initially opening the casing, and didnt realize until after I had replaced the camera.

I just got the new SD card reader/button cable in yesterday, and finished replacing it about 5 minutes ago. But the phone still will not boot.

I double checked all of the flex cables/signal cables to be 100% sure everything is plugged in properly, and not broken.

All of the flex cable protectors are back in place etc., but it just won't boot. the charge indicator won't even turn on when I plug it in.

I followed the video shown https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RRJAHbnYmQ to take it apart initially, then followed it backwards to be 100% sure I wouldn't miss anything when putting it back together.

The only thought I have, is that Im having issues getting the case to snap back together completely.

That's when I noticed the pieces shown in the pictures below.

View attachment 3527644

View attachment 3527645

This is my first time actually working on a phone, but from what I assume, they look like some kind of spring based switches that will sever very important connections if the phone isn't completely put back together, with the case holding these raised parts down to complete a circuit.

I'm not sure if that's my problem, or if I somehow managed to screw up something a lot more important.

Can anyone at all shed some light on this?

Edit: Another thought just occurred, would I be able to use my UH-OH protection for this, even though technically speaking I'm the one that caused it to become completely non functional by opening it and attempting repairs on my own? Should I drop the thing in a bucket of water for a while first to claim UH-OH?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nogrun:
Hi everyone.

This is my first post here.

First of all, I apologize for my bad english.

I have a Defy+ running android 2.3.4 and decided to upgrade android version using CM10 (Jelly Bean), but now I'm stucked in a boot loop...

I did the following steps:

- first rooted the phone using ROOT Genius;

- installed 2ndInit (vs 2.3) from this thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1032212);

- put CM10 (zip) and GApps into de SD Card;

- reboot the phone pressing vol - (then vol + too) to access the 2ndInit boot menu. It show four options:

1. reboot system now;

2. apply update from sdcard;

3. wipe data/factory reset;

4. wipe cache partition

- I did the wipe data and cache (3 and 4), whose worked well;

- then I finally tried to install CM10 and got the message:

E: filed to verify whole-file signature;

E: signature verification failed;

Installation aborted.

I couldn't figure out what was doing wrong...

Searched for some help and as a try, I installed 2ndInit (vs 2.0), and turned-off the phone.

Now, I still not able to install CM10 and I'm stucked in a BOOT LOOP!

Wipe data/cache don't fix the problem and I still have the same four options after press VOL - and access the recovery menu...

Don't know what I did wrong nor what to do to solve the problem...

I searched the forum, and it seems the only way is to flash SBF. Is that the case? If so, how can i do?

That's the first time I do things like that on Android and I don't understand what to do based on this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=966537

Please, someone might help me?

Thanks in advance!!

Has anyone had any success with android auto and the V10? I have not been able to connect to my NEX4100 via android auto AND bluetooth....
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] empiremaster23:
I think there are general bluetooth issues. I have a 2014 Cadillac with CUE Bluetooth and the V10 connects fine but no media can play. Calls work fine. I've tried many of the tricks that helped with the LG G4 (turning media audio off in settings after connecting then turning it back on) to no avail.

Between this and the force restarts, I may return this phone and go with the Nexus 6P. Also annoyed that verizon is selling the Qi chargin back as an accessory...
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notasaurus:
I had the same issue with my 2014 Jetta and the V10, took me 30 minutes of restarting bluetooth, turning the phone off and on, turning the car off and on and finally I switched my car to FM and the bluetooth connected to also support media audio. After that it worked ok. No idea what's up with the bluetooth but for my wireless headset it paired without issue. Seems picky
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amarryat:
Same strange issues here.

Paired no problem to a 2015 Honda Accord. Unable to pair to a 2011 BMW X3 (however the HTC One M8, M9, Samsung Galaxy Avant and Light all pair no problem). And it paired no problem to a 2016 BMW X3.

And at the gym, it disconnected from the bluetooth headset while I was using it. Wouldn't reconnect until I powered the headset off and back on.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eazyg:
I've got the nex4100 as well and I have had no issues at all. Everything works as it should.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zwan05:
Whoa... so do you think its a hardware issue that i should swap? Does android auto work for you as well?
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eazyg:
I don't know. Others in the thread seem to be confirming the issue your having but I seem to be the only one with the exact same head unit. Do you have the update for the head unit? My S5 had issues before the update. Update is kind of old but it did help with my S5. And Android Auto is working fine.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zwan05:
I am up to date on the 4100. So i swapped it out today and now it works with Android Auto, however it still does not work with bluetooth which is super odd.. to my understanding when you plug the phone in to connect to AA it still transmits the audio over bluetooth. Pioneer said it could be something wrong with the media bluetooth profile or something. Anyways i guess im stuck until they fix it. Maybe when android M comes out.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrdLock:
I don't know about Android Auto, but I definitely think the V10 has Bluetooth issues. I traded my Galaxy S6 Edge+ in for a V10 a week ago. I notice the Bluetooth audio is consistently "skipping" on both my car's audio and my Bluetooth headphones. Both devices worked flawlessly on my S6. Sometimes my car will even completely disconnect from the phone and I have to go through a complete reset/re-add process to get it back.

Hoping a 6.0 update will come soon and fix this issue.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eazyg:
Just an update as I just ran new cable in the car for the new phone. Everything tested out fine for me. The car is an 02 Camaro that I don't drive often now that it's cold outside but after hearing your problems I wanted to make sure everything was working the way it's supposed to. I don't think bluetooth audio while on Android Auto worked at all but Google play works just fine. Bluetooth audio was flawless when not connected to Android Auto. Tested it on and off Wi-Fi. Good to hear your better after the swap.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andersonbd:
I'm having problems connecting to my 2015 GMC Sierra (GMC Intellilink). I can connect, connect automatically, make and receive phone calls, but the bluetooth audio for music DOES NOT WORK. Most of the time, when I try to play a song via google play music or Deezer, the head unit in my truck immediately goes BLACK for about 10 seconds, I hear a whirrr of an internal fan, and it starts back up disconnected from the phone. The phone is causing the head unit to fail & restart. Sometimes it doesn't restart. It'll show the progress bar of the music, as well as on my phone. I can pause, play, next song, etc. but NO AUDIO comes out. It's just dead silent.

I'll let you guys know what my dealership says, as it's in service right now for this issue. I'm hoping there's an update for the software :/
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxceler8:
When I bluetooth over to my $300 Sony x-7s speaker, every 10 seconds or so I get a loud static pop. Luckily I kept my note3 so I just use that until an update (hopefully) will fix the issue, so I can listen to my Howard Stern on the v10. I am surprised they didn't push an update on or near release date. Maybe they are going straight to Marshmallow.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zwan05:
So i have an update after having a week or so to play around with it. Although I cannot connect to my NEX 4100 via bluetooth I can use google play music via android auto. Also i cannot use spotify on AA UNLESS i hit play on google play music first then pause then try to play a song on spotify...... very strange.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daethedar:
I'm glad it's not just me... Same weird bluetooth issues here with my Mercedes E63 AMG and the COMMAND unit. It was working flawlessly with my last phone (Xperia Z3.) The V10 is nothing but a headache so far. The following problems are happening:

Won't connect at all, and hangs.

Connects for calls only, no media.

Connects, instantly disconnects, cycle repeats.

To fix it I either have to keep manually connecting from COMMAND, until it randomly works. Or disconnect from the phone, and reconnect again. Or turn bluetooth off and on. On the note of which, half the time I do that, it hangs. Love the phone, but I'm going to return it if this goes on.

Further note: I even took the car in to the dealer, and paid 150 bucks to get the latest firmware updates done on it. That didn't fix it either. Tried my Xperia again, still works flawlessly. Ugh.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mswlogo:
I had an interesting issue with bluetooth.

I paired it to my 2015 Jeep Overland.

Music from SD Card played fine.

Then tried pandora. Nothing worked. Disabled bluetooth and pandora was fine. Went back to local mp3s from SD card and they would not play now.

Had to un-pair and pair it again. Then mp3s worked.

Played pandora and nothing and that broke mp3s again.

Then I tried my g4 on Sprint. Pandora worked fine.

Also tried Tune in Radio and that worked on v10 over bluetooth.

I think it is caused by Binge On from t- mobile downsampling the stream on pandora and the Uconnect radio does not like the bitrate or format.

I did read t-mobile will downsample streamed movies.

So folks with bluetooth issues, what are you testing with?
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Norma Stitz:
I have a less standard setup. I connect to my 2012 Cadillac system as a phone only, and I have an aptx bt dongle attached to the aux port that I'm connected to as a media device.

My phone connects to both simultaneously, and hands the phone back and forth for calls and music. It works flawlessly, and the audio quality way better than any OEM bt streaming that I've ever heard.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mytwuk:
I have a Pioneer DEH 80PRS in my truck and it has connected and works perfect just like my G3 did. It always auto connects when entering the vehicle and hands off between streaming Tune in radio or from the SD card using the Android music player app and a phone call no problem. Hopefully the guys having problems will get a fix when the phone is given some MM goodness.

Tech support

So I contacted LG Tech support. So far their solution is routine... open the bluetooth app located in "settings > apps > all > bluetooth", clear cache and cache and remove the battery while still powered on. Leave in for 10 seconds and reset. As most of you can imagine, it did nothing for me so they then recommended a factory reset... again nothing. Waiting for another reply. I specifically referred them to this board and to a board on the Microsoft forums as users of the Microsoft Band (1st gen) are having the exact same issue. I also asked if there could be an issue with the bluetooth software/hardware in this phone as it is more widespread than a tiny few people.

Will post their reply. Of note, my bluetooth works great with a Jabra Storm headset, Creative Aurvana bluetooth headphones and my Sony x6 BT speaker. The only issues seems to be with car audio profiles and maybe fitness trackers.
