[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abort Retry Fail?:
A Possible Solution

I had problems with LG Flashing Tool the first time I tried to flash stock after upgrading my system OS to Windows 10. I finally got it to work by changing the compatibility mode for application file to Windows 8. I successfully flashed back to D85510L_00.KDZ after making the change I just mentioned.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alwaysdiving:
Thanks, but I tried that already. Didn't work. In the end I transferred everything to my wife's Windows 7 computer and and did the flashing there. Everything ran as smooth as can be.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilngineer:
As the title says, I have a VK810 that I desperately need to get to 5.1 or greater.

I have been looking all over for a way with no luck. I have an audio controller that won't work properly with the tablet without it.

Seems like verizon is never going to release the update.

Can anyone assist?
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
There's a CM12.1 ROM in Development or Original Development, and more recent builds you can find by looking for [MENTION=2385005]invisiblek[/MENTION] 's site. You can't get mobile data on them. Some had luck getting mobile data to work for a little while on more recent builds but I never had luck, and I know it stopped working for a friend of mine who out world for originally.

It's too soon to give up on another official update in my opinion. The second official 5.0.2 release came out three months ago, and to compare, on the VS985 G3, there were three months between the second 5.0.1 and 5.1.1, and updates will never come out as fast for the G Pad 8.3 as for the G3 although I think perhaps the first Lollipop for the VK810.4G came out before it did for the G3, but you know what I mean. The phones are more of a priority.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhenshall82:
Hi guys I'm hoping someone can help me out with this.

Basically I rooted my LG g pad 8.3 v500/awifi using towelroot and installed twrp via the manager in the play store.

I then proceeded to flash the rom provided by adrianom and everything seemed to go through smoothly.

I've since come across the common issues of the WiFi disconnecting and reconnecting frequently along with the sd card unmounting and taking a while to pick itself back up again.

Anyway I tried to address the WiFi issue first by checking the configuration.ini but I found that my root access has been removed.

Tried re-running towelroot but my device is now showing as not being supported.

Any suggestions?
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mhden2x:
I think you just have to flash SuperSU to get root. On both AOSP 5.1.1 and 6 by adrianom that was the case.

is there any hope ??? or any other way ???

plzzz help n sugest something ?? in the end only one way sony center
[Sony Xperia C] iSiddharth:
Try this first :

Open Sony PC Companion, and select the very first option (Support Zone), then the last option (Repair device) and there select Xperia C (do not connect your phone until here), now after selecting Xperia C when PC Companion asks you to connect your device, now connect your device and make sure you are continuously pressing the Volume Down Key (it will come written there and pics will also be there) and then wait till it detects your device. Then PC Companion will repair your device.

If this does not help then try method given on THIS thread.

If nothing helps then you have to go to Service Centre.
[Sony Xperia C] goudaniket:
Connect your phone to the computer, Reboot into CWM , then in advanced, select mount USB. thats it.

Or just use a card reader and place the rom in ur SD card.

For all of you that have unlimited data go check your bill. These chumps raised the cost of our unlimited data from $30.00 a month to $50.00 a month. This is ridiculous :mad: My wife and myself both have had unlimited data for the past 7 to 10 years with Verizon. This is the end. Time to start shopping networks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jacob11701:
They did it because they raised the value. We will never be throttled. All other carriers unlimited are not true unlimited. They throttle you after a gig or so to less than high-speed. It's about quality. You get what you pay for. All you will end up seeing is buffering if you watch anything on the throttled speed. Horrible time. Tried it without canceling and went back to vz glad I did

Verizon Wireless Technician using Tapatalk on Note 5
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Mayze23:
Only other carriers that offer unlimited data is t-mobile and sprint. Coverage on both are nowhere near as good as Verizon and they throttle your speeds if you go over a certain data limit. Extra $20 a month is worth unlimited unthrottled data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] toskabab:
It's about time they did. They should do away with it altogether so the majority of us don't have to suffer price hikes due to the few high and mighty tards that brag about using 100gb a month on their "unlimited" plan. We would have all still had unlimited if it weren't for a few entitled douchebags.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] tedkord:
No, you wouldn't. That had nothing to do with capacity or network congestion. It was about commoditizing data and raising profits. Period.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] tw1n5nak35:
I completely agree with you. My brother had sprint and unlimited for a long time and his LG G3 had very inconsistent LTE coverage. My girl friend has tmobile and a iphone 6s, she has unlimited everthing as well and her service was no where as good as big red, no matter where we went.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] V-Ty:
My hole thing is in a perfect world the people that have unlimited data have been loyal customers for Verizon for 5 to 10 plus years and you would appreciate them by letting them be. Not squeeze $20.00 more dollars out of them. Now I understand that we have an excellent coverage and network but take care of your customers that have had your back. Yes, have I been rooted and broke rules and taken advantage of them. But I've never used no 100gb of data. With my wife and myself we average about 10-16gb each phone a month. With 6 kids and 5 lines and 1 smart watch on a line, price is a lot as it is and now it's jacked up $40.00 more dollars just disappoints me. That's all. I probably won't switch based on your guys feedback but dam Verizon cut your loyal customers some slack....

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] JasonJoel:
Keep dreaming. I think Verizon would much prefer everyone with unlimited switch back on a metered plan or move to another carrier. And I think they are going to keep making it painful to encourage that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Mayze23:
They are allowing new phone payment plans for unlimited users with the price increase. They could have kept it where we had to pay full price up front. Entitlement generation.....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Sziehr:
It's crazy that after a fixed price for 10 years you're outraged by a price increase. I can't think of anything that hasn't gone up in 10 years
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] snowrider0985:
The price only went up if you were not on contract. We have 3 unlimited data lines on our plan and we have all upgraded using loopholes. So we are all still under contract. We have 2 more years until the price hike will go into effect for us.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] javamaan:
i believe they are allowing upgrades using Device payment plans in UDP now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] droidiac13:
I'd gladly pay another $20 to get unlimited. I don't do a lot from home, but I could then hotspot and get rid of my home Internet. It would save me $40 per month.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] hbar98:
I hate to be "that guy", but this was reported on back in September/October, plus it was on the VZW website if you had logged in in the past month or so, or it should have been on your last bill if you don't do paperless. This wasn't something that just hit us out of the blue.

I've also had two UDP lines for a long, long time, but this is still the best value for me, so I'll continue with VZW service. I do hope you find a service value that is acceptable to you! Good luck!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] supercobaltss:
I just came from Unlimited data on tmobile. They never throttled me and i did around 150GB a month. Had to switch back to verizon because Tmobile's coverage sucks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jacob11701:
Actually it does. We stopped because there were people using there plans to make money by using repeaters to a bunch of apartments. The amount of issues that was placing on towers was enough to ruin the experience for others in the area.

You should be greatful that they didn't force you out of it. They are letting you keep it because it's valuable if you don't think it's valuable enough for 20 more a month.... Still cheaper than buying a huge data plan then you can try another carrier lol

Verizon Wireless Technician using Tapatalk on Note 5
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] tedkord:
No, you stopped because you saw an opportunity to increase profit by limiting data. You can try and convince otherwise all you like, but I've dealt with Verizon long enough to know that nothing they claim is true. (Heck, I've called Verizon CS three times in a row asking the same question to three different CS reps, and gotten three totally different answers that were diametrically opposed)

People who were using it like you said were breaking the terms of your contract, and could be thrown off the network without penalizing everyone.

When I first got a smartphone, back in the WinMo days before iPhones, I could get one without a data plan. (Of course, dishonest Verizon made sure none of the ones that could be used had WiFi, so you couldn't get any data if you didn't use theirs. They also locked the GPS receiver out from any other application except VZNavigator - nice folks at Verizon)

Then, suddenly, you had to have a data plan, and it had to be unlimited. When I spoke to VZW reps about this, they lied to me and claimed a smartphone won't function without a data plan. When I pointed out that wasn't true, they tried to sell me on all the wonderful things I could with the data, like stream videos. I told them that, no, I couldn't really because Verizon's 3g network is dial-up slow, and videos buffer every three seconds. Didn't matter,I was told, if I wanted a smartphone on Verizon, I had to pony up the $30/month for data whether it was usable or not.

So, for the next couple of years, I paid the extra every month for data that did me almost no good.

Then, LTE came along. Lowell the liar told us that LTE wouldn't increase prices because it was cheaper for Verizon and held much more bandwidth. The facts were true, but the assertion that it wouldn't be pricier was BS.

But now, I finally had data speeds that, while still slower than most other carriers in the US, are fast enough that I can do the things Verizon told me I could do before but couldn't, like actually watch videos on my phone. And now that I can get the functionality I was always promised, Verizon wants to charge me more to use the device I paid full price for.

I never broke the terms of my contract. I didn't even tether. I tried to keep my usage reasonable, using WiFi whenever possible. But now that VZW has decided to increase my cost, I will increase my usage. I'm aiming for at least 100gb per month. I stream Netflix as much as possible. I stay off WiFi whenever possible.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jacob11701:
True. Most did get thrown. LTE is cheaper. The company can use LTE to make speeds and bandwidth more available. The price i paid for service is around the same price 7 years ago as it is for me today. I say around obv because things will go up a little it's how things work over the years but it never went up because of LTE xD. Obviously things change. Verizon has been changing every year to make profit and to make their customers happy. You spoke with some CS reps? ok.....so out of everything you spoke to some people at a computer all day? You act like they are the worst company there is....lol with the best service and the most to offer it doesn't ever come to you that they cant please everyone? Its the biggest network company in the US...sorry you have those beliefs but they are skewed.

Still cant get over people saying they was 4-5 devices with tons of data and a tablet for less than 100 a month happens all the time.... In all companies prices increase. You are being charged for service not your "device you paid for in full"

I also use around 100Gb....that what they gave it to you for. To use it lol the issue was the people spending over 2 TB a month as an individual. I can't even imagine how much that would cost. O_o
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] tedkord:
Worst company in the world? I don't know about that. Worst company in the US? Well, even then they're not as bad as Comcast. But they are inherently dishonest company. Don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining. Likewise don't tell me you're increasing prices because of network congestion, or some other silly, made up reason.

If they want to raise prices, that's their choice. And then, as a consumer it's my choice whether to stay with them or move on to another carrier. And that's the way it should be. I just don't like the lying. I've dealt with Verizon on many occasions, and I've been lied to on many occasions.

If they would have just come out and said they were implementing the tiered plans because they want to make more money on it, I could have at least respected that. Same thing here. Don't tell me that you're increasing my costs for fairness, or to relieve congestion, or for any reason other than what it is - you want to increase your already ridiculous profits.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] toskabab:
I have to agree here. They are arguably the most greedy company in the US. I have been with them for as long as I can remember and till this day I still have to scan every monthly statement and I still pick up erroneous charges. Small things, $2 here, $5 there. Sometimes up to $40 a month. My monthly statement has never been the same more than 3 months in a row and I don't do anything differently. The most recent stunt they tried to pull was after I downloaded go90 for a crappy 2 gig "free promo," they forced my line back into contract and I lost my $25 off contract discount. I raised holy hell at the verizon store and not only got it rectified but also got a date with the sales manager.

They did it for profits and as another attempt to force unlimited data customers over to tired data plans. Nothing more or less.

---------- Post added at 10:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:19 AM ----------

Right? The $30 data is nice, but to maintain it the rest of the plans are not nearly as cheap. And sometimes depending on how you buy devices neither are they. And most have been loyal for years.

It's just a nasty attempt to make them switch which just jacks up the cost of expensive plans.

Their data plans are ridiculously priced. Almost $50 for what? 2-3GB? Get real. Almost $400 for 50GB? Get bent.

If that is true that does in some way make up for it and give a slightly different outlook on it

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] xdathekilljoy:
Then.......it sucks still.....but at the same time.....They actually did something overall good??? wow
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] tedkord:
I don't know about that. You're still paying the same amount, just over a longer period.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] xdathekilljoy:
I think in the end the udp person is still paying more and its better to find a good deal elsewhere on the device you want except for specials and promos.

Cause those plans to have any decent amount of talk/text eith ulimited data are costly. Then data for each line that has it. Then laying down all that money for a device.

Rrgardless i guess its nice to have the.option though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] dwhdroid:
the point of UDP

No one is happy to be paying more for the same thing. However, I for one really missed picking up my upgrade for 199-299 every two years with full insuarce. I think the customer that actually gets the most use out of UDP is the unlimited customer despite what you say. Yes you are paying for it, but if given a choice to get udp for $20/mo for the contract term was an option for unlimited customers, would you? I guess that awnser will tell you if your happy with the rate hike/udp availibility for the unlimited. Its more like we have all been forced onto edge plans like it or not. Contracts don't mean anything anymore accept that you have one.

If you predict some other companys unlimited program is going to stop throttling data comes true you are free to burn you vzw bridge as every carrier offers contract termination compensation for new contracts, and you get another upgrade credit from them and keep or trade your phone.

It really does suck that VZW subbed flagships have the tightest locked boot loader outside of north Korea, not that you could get one but that just adds to the validity of the statement. Ill live with that aspect as long as I can still de-bloat, ditch touchwiz, and get some form of tethering.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] xerotix:
Upgrade through a third party on an additional line and you won't lose unlimited. I just purchased mine through Best Buy for $50 through a different line, had talked to a Verizon rep about it prior to that as I used to do customer service for AT&T and I understand the reps. From what I've read you can add a line for upgrade and cancel it after upgrading for the deal. Speak with a rep and they can help you learn the best predicament as far as getting around that loss as Verizon loves their customers like all other carriers.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] JesseMT4G:
I can't stand Verizon.... Greedy, rude customer service, Bill fluctuations month after month and I am on the medium plan and only 2g a month. I use mostly wifi thankfully, but paying a ridiculous amount for one line. I have to have them due to work as tmobile gets spotty in PA where I deliver. Heck even had no service with big red, just less than tmobile.

However at home I still have family plan with tmobile and their service is head and shoulders above Verizon. Speeds, signal... Everything... If not for the contract, I'd be back at tmobile, saving money and not having to deal with this BS... it is what it is though.

I say this as my wife watches Netflix off wifi because it don't count in data... Or music... Or this.... Or that. Dang it for shoddy coverage in PA though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] JasonJoel:
Coverage and cost are not exactly a coincidence... Verizon has better coverage because they spend billions on their network... They had billions to spend because they charge more and have more customers. It doesn't mean that is true in 100% of locations, but overall it is true.

The coverage gap seems to be closing though, which is good. More competition is better for the customer.
