[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hussain_Salam:
Hey guys,

So my brothers Nexus 5 came to an end but i'm determine to recover it (Already Partially Recover)

Backstory:

So initially the power button wasn't working like it couldn't be pressed, and as the device was already off i decided to plug a charger in and it would enter the boot stage but enter a boot loop which further research showed me it was a issue with the powerbutton, So i came to the conclusion to remove + replace the power button so i opened it up, took a look and soldered the broken power button off, with alot of time and effort i managed to remove it and clean it up with the intentions of installing a new powerbutton i bought a fine tip solder tip however it wasn't burning properly as i noticed eventually, in which i was unable to solder a new power button on even with flux, aswell as this i managed to solder it on in which i was convinced it was a decent soldering job as all the points were clearly connected i placed the board into the device (wHICH WAS A MISTAKE) as i should've waited a solid hour, to ensure it was strong, as of this the power button had come off as i was placing the board back in which meant the button was practically scrapped and i was extremely fustrated, so i decided to screw it a put the device back together without the back casings over the board, and i wanted to see if i could bridge the connection whilst the charger was plugged in in which i did and the device booted up.

Main Question:

Now my main question is, i need a workaround for the powerbutton currently i've installed Gravity Screen for him, however it's got a high battery consumption and it's not too reliable so i'm trying to get a solid method.

I've come across a headphone jack that has a button which i can configure to be a power button (Pressy or iKey)

Now that the issue with Locking + Unlocking is solved

How can i power the device back on when it shuts down due to lack of battery as i've sealed the phone back up, He currently runs Android 6.0 MRA58N, My main idea was to Root his Device + get TWRP installed however i was wondering if i could do this without rebooting his device / setting up a method to power his device via ADB however i haven't installed any ADBs etc so far.

My second idea was if i booted the device into fastboot by plugging in in the power cord and holding volume button, with the battery unplugged via the ribbon would it power on the device?

Last question is, i powered the device with the Camera Unplugged via ribbon cables however it's not working as the app just opens and closes without a FC so i was wondering if a reboot would just fix this?

ADDITIONALLY Another method could be rebooting via terminal However i'm unsure on how to use the Terminal / if i need root or not etc.

Thanks!

Contact a kernel dev. He will probably be able to remap the power button, to get it to boot from the charging screen. Or try to disable offline charging alltogether.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hussain_Salam:
I'm quite new to the Nexus 5 Area, and infact i don't know any Kernal developers - Is there any chance you could probably help me out and give me some contacts etc.?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playitlouder:
I dont do much in terms of custom kernels, but post in some kernel threads in the nexus 5 development forums, or contact the creator of the thread via pm. Just look for threads with KERNEL in the name ;)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hussain_Salam:
UPDATE!

Okay Thank you,

UPDATE:

*I've Overcome the Powerbutton issue as i've ordered Pressy/iKey which should be arriving tomorrow which will lock and unlock my screen

*I'm now trying to figure out another method to power on my device if it shuts down:

One idea was to some how get the device to power on when i plug in a charger maybe by installing TWRP

Or another method was to power it on via an ADB shell on pc Or Something like that

*I'm also trying to reboot the Device however im unsure on how to do so without a power button.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r109:
Has anyone else experienced the V10 freezing on a single frame while watching YouTube videos? That's the first thing I noticed when I got my phone and thought it was just the video I was watching but now after a week watching a YouTube video is hit or miss for me. Has anyone else experienced this? I'm on AT&T version.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ke5pcv:
That same thing happens to me, I have to change it to 1080P and rewind a few seconds so it'll play smoothly.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abominabel:
I saw the issue brought up in another thread this morning and decided to test it out as I've mainly been watching in 1080p. Tried a couple movie trailers and random videos and these are my results. If it was 1440p but wasn't taking up the whole screen (black bars) then it never froze. Same resolution but full screen it froze 70 percent of the time. It would usually stutter a couple seconds before freezing completely but once stuck the only way to unfreeze would be to rewind or fast forward a bit..but then a few seconds later it would freeze again. I did notice something else too. Anything titled 4k, but was being played at 1440p obviously, froze 100 percent of the time. The only time it never froze like I said was when it was 1440 with black bars. Specifically a scene from the movie troy.

Side note...troy is a badass movie if you haven't seen it.

Hopefully an update pushed by YouTube or carrier adresses this issue. Its not extremely important to me as it's always bothersome to constantly have to change YouTube's resolution to 1440p but for the simple sake of unintended problems being fixed, I hope it's soon.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r109:
Yup you're spot on I was checking out Max Lee and MKBHD videos and wondered why they froze. 1440p is what freezes the playback ugh.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Davidwavid:
youtube lag

i hope you guys could help. but i have noticed that my youtube app has been lagging. when watching a video and trying to minimize the one im watching. the animation is really laggy, same goes with my playstore. i consider it a lag because i have an outdated lg g3 dual lte with regards to its software but an updated youtube and llaystore, and everything on the g3 is real smooth and fine i hope you guys can help it really bugs me.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Senor M:
Same here. (Heres my comment from another forum) I noticed my T mobile Lg V10 playing videos really choppy when I tested it alongside my brother's Lg G3, and said videos would freeze up totally with about 75% of the ones I'd test set at 1440p resolution. The vids that played were stuttering noticeably. The G3 handled all 8 to 10 videos I tested at 1440p with absolutely no problems , with a smoother frame rate as well. After much research I decided it's gotta be a very odd GPU issue /bug and I should attempt to return/exchange it before my 2 week return window passed. When I went in store to comeplete the process I decided to test the display model Lg V10, which was right next to the G4. So I tested them both simultaneously, and it too had the same video freezing issue at 1440p and played videos lackluster in comparison to the G4 which was 1 foot away and performing beautifully! Afterwards I explained and demonstrated the issue to the very condescending employee and store manager/supervisor, which they oddly passed off as a data signal issue or bug with the youtube app ,along with a couple other nonsensical excuses my brain couldn't even process at the time. Long story short, after nearly getting into a heated verbal dispute they refused to waive the $50 restocking fee for a replacement (I was planning on playing it safe and just get the G4) they said the phone ,"operates fine" and that their own G4,s and Galaxy Note's do the same thing sometimes. Mhm...right. I refused to pay 50 extra bucks to switch devices due to an obvious GPU defect that effects a noticeable percentage of V10 owners (just search forums like this and it's obvious). I decided to take the temporary loss and stick with this phone until the earliest moment I can use my jump on demand and get my 1st choice the G4.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abominabel:
So u think it's hardware related and cannot be fixed by a simple update? The thought hadn't even crossed my mind to return it as I imagine a software update of some sort would fix it.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Senor M:
That's a possibility but there's no guarantee. That's why people who experience these annoying video playback issues should explain it to LG and their carrier asap ,as I have. This phone has the specs and screen to play 1440p with no problems, so perhaps a software update would fix the issue. Hopefully
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Davidwavid:
thank you so much and for clearing that out. It really bothers me, to think that the LG V10 has 4GB of RAM and has one of the latest, if not the latest gpu but experiences these types of issue. Even the simplest animations on The latest Play Store when going from one tab to another ,the animation stutters a lot. And im pretty sure you guys can notice to that when you minimize the window while youre watching on youtube the animation stuttees to and the back ground kind of blinks while pulling the window down. I have noticed all of these issues because when comapring it to the G3, the V10 really is not behaving well. And another issue i have noticed is when i downloaded the game GT Racing 2, graphics cant be raised to the optimal and but with the G3 the game enables the graphics you would expect from these kinds of GPU. in short the graphics it offers to me even at maximum is what you would see om mediatek processors. And i do believe these goes with all the V10 and not an isolated case and that SUCKS!
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carbon12:
I don't normally watch YouTube in 4k as to me it is a waste bandwidth on a 5.7 inch screen... but I digress...

I just went and watched the Batman vs. Superman trailer in 4k and, other than having to switch to WiFi because T-Mo where I am couldn't keep up, it played smoothly through for the 2+ minutes with no hitching or freezing... do you have a link to what video you played that caused the issue?

As far as gaming goes... the G3's SD801 has the Adreno 330 vs the V10 with the Adreno 418 in the SD808... not the 430 in the 810. They are not the same class of GPU and even though they have the same 128 ALU count, there are other features that still allow the 330 to beat the 418 in numerous benchmarks.

The V10 is marketed as a premium build quality photo/video/media device, not a hard core gaming flagship.

I see no issues in the Play Store either... which animations are you speaking of? I see slight hitching when you out run the cached content when vertical scrolling fast, and it has to grab more, but nothing heavy. Everything slides in smoothly the from the bottom when I swipe from paid to free etc...
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Senor M:
You're most welcome! I do notice stuttering after a few weeks owning it when moving from task to task a little more often than I expected with such a new phone. The YouTube video playing though is just not impressive so far. My G2 played 1080p more smooth and my brother's G3 handles up to 1440p beautifully. I compiled a short list of about 8 or 9 videos that display the issue, I thought it may have been an issue with videos with "4k" in the title but it also happens with several other vids. Didn't realize I'm not allowed to link them here yet but out of maybe 15 videos I tested ,at least 8 froze up seconds into playing while the audio continues . All in all it flat out should NOT be playing vids less impressively than 1 or 2 yr old phones:rolleyes: hopefully they get enough emails that'll prompt them to rectify this issue.

[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kakuz:
Mine freezes too on that video, but I just find it hard to care. Not saying no one should care, but it's not a dead/life thing.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abominabel:
I was testing my sd card that arrived today and noticed my read speed was severely lower than the advertised 90mb/s. I'm talking less than 20. Then it dawned on me that I had chosen to encrypt the card upon insertion so I removed the encryption which caused the speed to go up to 85.

My question is, could encryption be causing the performance hit? Are any of you experiencing the freezing encrypted as well?

Not sure how it could...just a thought.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbraft:
My Verizon V10 also froze, not at exactly 1 min, but about 40 seconds or so later. So next I watched another 1440p from the same poster, similar issues. Then I watched another 1440p from another source.....no issues. Since the video in question was posted 2 years ago it had plenty of comments, so I took a quick look, and noted that at least one person had similar issues viewing the videos on a laptop with a AMD processor.

I also noticed that on my laptop the video quality 2160p can be selected, not just 1440p which is all the youtube app on the V10 is allowing. Maybe there is a encoding difference or the youtube app that causes issues? What got me thinking it could be app related is looking for a faster browser than Chrome. Dolphin is so much faster..... Instead of youtube app content, maybe try some of the video samples from somewhere that streams 4k using/thru HTML5? I tried a couple of sites with no problem, looked like 4k, but the players didn't give me stats on the actual playback quality.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Davidwavid:
thanks again and i really hope they do something about it. i just cant accept the fact that its the latest flagship of LG, and it fails to impress a lot of the owners and when comparing it as you have said it , to a 2 year old phone , it kind of is inferior to it in some aspects. considering youtube is not that complicated. And ive also noticed that the youtube app crashes frequently. i dont know if it happens to you but it happens to me. and to some other apps too, with me just scrolling down the page. ???
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BFCE:
My v10 (att) has no issues with animations, but consistently freezes on 1440p. However, using Google Chrome and the HTML5 player, 1440p runs just fine. Odd.

Nope. I take it back. It can do 60fps in Chrome, which it can't do in the YouTube app. Video flat out crashes trying to do 1440p in Chrome.

---------- Post added at 11:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 PM ----------

Something is seriously wrong here. I went to go record chrome crashing at 1440p. Which it did, then I opened YouTube and tried to do it there. Oddly enough, with my recording software running, it didn't crash. As soon as I finished recording I tried again and sure enough it crashed right at 1 minute. I say it's a software bug. Lets just wait till marshmallow. I used "Rec." to record. Will upload later
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tongueman87:
Well my v10 stutters on 1080 where my wife's does just fine. But as far as gaming my phone blazes just as my note 4 did no issues at all. Just with the youtube app it freezes. But watching them through the browser no issue only happens with youtube app for my phone

---------- Post added at 08:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:36 PM ----------

It is only on youtube I can watch 2k videos from sd and 1080 on other video apps

There have been updated pushed to AT&T from what I have heard that fixed the fingerprint, youtube as well as a few other issues.

Hi,

This is my first post here. I have an rx5915 and I've read that HP isn't interested is doing any official WM6 upgrade for the rx5900 series. Is anyone working on an unofficial means for rx5900 series owners to get there?

I really like the PDA and its GPS functionality. I'd like to get the same BT headphone quality that I got with my old h1945 and the Widcomm high quality BT audio stack.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Can new HP Ipaq WM6 ROMs be cooked to work in rx5900 Series?

Newly announced HP Ipaqs use WM6 ROMs. Can these be cooked to work in rx5900 Series?

My rx5915 is a great PDA with only a few shortcomings, the most important of which is the lack of A2DP.

It seems that there are many others who are also interested in a WM6 upgrade for the rx5900 Series.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

It seems there are a few people out there interested in a WM 6.1 ROM for HP Ipaq rx5915.

I'd be willing to do a lot of the foot work.

I just need some help getting started:

1. How do I dump the current rom from the device?

2. How would I upload a cooked rom once I've got one?

3. What is the most comparible/compatible device to the rx5915?

4. What is the best base WM 6.1 rom to start cooking from?

5. What is the best kitchen to use?

6. Where would I get the WM 6.1 drivers that would be needed for each of the internal devices: GPS, special launch buttons, navigation button, etc. Do they exists in other roms?

If someone can point me in the right direction I'd love to figure it out.

How to put rx59xx into bootloader mode?

This is needed in order to get a dump.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Alfatv:
OK, here is something.

Bootloader mode:

Disconnect from USB or shut down Active sync processes

While holding Record button(near reset) and Quick Launch(top) press Reset.

It will reboot and the following will appear STEPLDR:1.00.01 BOOT:1.00.04 MVB.

Next press Rotate button, otherwise it will exit bootloader.

USB disconnect message will appear.

Now shut down Activesync processes if haven't done already and connect USB, USB disconnect message will change to USB.

Next, run mtty11a.

Select USB port, \\.\WCEUSBSH002 in my case

Terminal window opens, but unfortunately no messages or any prompt :(

Pardon me for dredging this thread up from the abyss.

While hp may not have a ROM update for the rx59xx, there are a few updates and such. One in particular, SP34707 contains in it the hpRUU.exe tool. This info seemed relevant so I posted it. And while I do have one of these, second handed to me, I have not those refined skills to assure my victory in getting anywhere with the boot loader, STEPLDR?. I haven't even found much info on google on the matter either.

If someone knows of / wants me to try some thing dangerous but might yeld results / rom dump I'm game.

Does anyone know if there is tear down posted of this thing? If not I may disassemble to see about locating the jtag pins anyway.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ryahp:
As foolsh brought the subject up... I actually opened the device up, the other day, just out of interest. Unfortunately I didn't take any photographs, and I have given the device to my girlfriend who's always getting herself lost everywhere... Maybe she'll return it to me in a few weeks claiming not being able to cope with such high tech equipment yet.

So if anyone is interested in opening the device, you need to take out all the screws i think there are about eight of them all under the battery cover. One of them covered by the warranty seal. And beside that seal there is also another plastic seal covering the Speaker connector which might get damaged if not disconnected before opening. Interestingly, there is also a 4 pin connector there, which I suspect is a USB connector (the specs mention the BT transceiver connected via usb host), but I didn't check that. Appropriate USB drivers may also be missing but I think there are cabs around for that.

When the screws and the connector are removed, the whole back cover of the device can be slid towards the USB connector side about 1 cm and then be lifted to open the device. I didn't inspect it too thoroughly, but there is the omnidirectional GPS antenna (cylindrical ceramic substrate with a helicoidal antenna printed on), the display, which is using a connector different from the 1900, 1700, 3700, 210 and 4700 series, the "keypad" board, actually it seems to contain the BT antenna and only the two keys at the front.

I didn't look for the jtag connector so sorry about that, but as I literally fried my 4700 with wiggling around too much with the parallel port wiggler, I much rather would prefer a solution like the bootloader files for the IPAQ 210 which I'm now happily using. spiaatie and sony66 may be more knowledgeable in this field but I suspect them being interested in the windows mobile platform any longer.
