[G4 General] vegetaleb:
Hello!

So I have the G4 H815 for more than 4 months already and I wanted to share my experience as I was a long term HTC user and fan.

I ditched my M9 in end-August and got a brand new G4 because I hated the small repetitive 5'' screen of the M9, it's poor camera in everything but bright sunny days, and the fact that it did get very warm easily.

The G4 is superior in terms of screen and camera, and I really enjoy them.

Some people used to say: why putting a QHD on a 5.5''? it's a battery draining thingy...

Not really! The M9 had the same battery life as the G4 with a smaller and FHD screen, though the advantage of QHD are justified with the use of Google Cardboard, I can watch VR movies without pixels salad.

The camera is wonderful, whatever is the condition you can get superb shots, the Auto mode is already very good specially with MM, the RAW mode is more extended than M9. Of course low light and night shots are miles better with the G4.

Now there are 2 things I didn't like about the G4 and here's where the HTC flagships win:

-Sound loudness and volume are weak

-Poor custom rom choice

I tried nearly all sound boost options from V4A to xtrememusic passing by Dolby Atmos, yes you will get richer and louder output from the 3.5mm jack but even though not as loud as it should be, it just need an extra +15 to +20% to be good if you want to use it outdoor in fast paced sports like Ski. Yes I tried Faux sound,but I couldn't use more than +1 because sound was beginning to crackle. Thankfully BT audio sound is way better, not as a sound quality but as volume output, it's definitely louder than with the wired earphones!

As for the custom roms...I am very deceived by the rom dev scene for G4, I am not talking about the CM based roms, I am talking about the custom stock based ones.

We just have one dev actually working on a custom stock based rom for G4 and he (with all due respects) doesn't have the time and experience to build a stable version of MM rom. We had a very good dev S3V3N who had some attitude I reckon, but he used to build stable and rich featured custom roms every 2-3 days!!

The thing is that he doesn't have the G4 anymore. So we have many CM based roms but only 1 for stock based rom.

HTC flagship phones have this advantage to have numerous very good devs releasing quality rich roms like Leedroid, j to the 4n, Llabtoofer...

Will I switch back to hTC? Not as long as they release small screened flagships and bad cameras, the G4 is a keeper!

I am not complaining or asking anything, I am just giving my view about how good the G4 is and what it needed to be perfect.
[G4 General] Loulou-13:
yes ,disapointed too with the sound...

but for the original G4 audio headset, it's scandalous for a hight phone like G4 ! (the same for Samsung recent S series ,note...,htc....)

==>> i have tested with an old optimus audio headset and it's very much better !!! nothing to do !!! i highly recomend to try anothers things...

The internal speaker is not very good too ...it's hardware problem ,not firmare...

but all other components are perfect :

-design very "simple" but fabulous and innovative

-very good network catcher and it's fast/optimised

-strong battery quality ,no strange behaviors of drain like others devices...

-removable battery/sdcard

-stock firmware enought reliable (pure and harmonious style)

-fabulous screen (color,contrast.... )

one of the best camera/video capture...

-no heat a lot very dangerously

- ...........

=> it's not Samsung !!! ^^ LOL :laugh: but objectively more superior to his S6,last Note.. in my own opinion !
[G4 General] DoKaTSuYa:
I listen music via bluetooth with Apt-X, so this phone is really really great, I just need a fingerprint now... and why not of course a 3D Touch to be update.
[G4 General] One Twelve:
Can't help thinking had you waited a couple more months longer that maybe you would have got a v10 ?

You like and can handle big screens by the looks of it.

What improvements did you notice with the camera on MM compared to L ?

and what do you mean when you say raw mode is more extended ?

This is something i don't know whether the v10 would help with or not. Its supposed to have better quality dacs. Not sure about sound volume.

What more are you looking for that root & xposed cannot give you ?

A9 has OIS and M10 will have it too. it will have louder sounds, retain front facing speakers and have the usual rom support.

I give it a month before you bite :D
[G4 General] vegetaleb:
If the M10 has screen 5.2'' and more I will, Google cardboard changed everything :cool:

These are tips for all those who don't know it and who are new to the android world.

Before downgrading or flashing anything, do these things -

1) ENABLE USB DEBUGGING OPTION

2) ENABLE OEM UNLOCK OPTION

3) SEARCH THE FORUM THOROUGHLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY FLASHING

4) READ THE ORIGINAL POST BEFORE POSTING YOUR QUESTIONS DIRECTLY IN THE THREAD

THANK YOU ALL.

If anyone has more tips, I will add them.
[X Play General] Tim3tripp3r:
Great post. It should be stickied so it's at the top.
[X Play General] K.khiladi:
Hope the moderators stick it to top. ☺
[X Play General] Nico3d3:
Totally agree, never start to do things without reading thoroughly first. Especially if it is your first Android phone. It's a bit easier if you already had Android phone before as many things are similar when comes the time to install custom recovery and flash new roms. I once hard-bricked a ****ty Samsung Galaxy Ace. It wasn't a big loss since it was just an old slow ugly Gingerbread phone but I was extra careful when I started modding the Moto X Play since it's a good middle range phone.
[X Play General] K.khiladi:
If that would have been a common sense then there wouldn't be so many persons with locked bootloader problems and all that. ☺
[X Play General] Chaotic-Entropy:
Do you need to get an unlock code from Motorola? There's something about that when you want to unlock the bootloader and whatnot, isn't there?

I haven't attempted to unlock and root mine yet, but I may do in future.
[X Play General] xQrzy:
Yes, you need to.
[X Play General] Chaotic-Entropy:
One for the tip list?
[X Play General] xQrzy:
Nope, it's already in bootloader unlock instructions.

Guys,

I upgraded to WM6 using the original ROM posted here some weeks ago, everything has been going fine, up until I went away on business last week and found I couldnt get the internet connection sharing application to properly share the connection - it said connected and I had a local ip, but I couldnt view web pages on the laptop.

Has anyone else noticed this? Is it a known problem? Have I done something daft?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Tadeusz:
It works fine here. Did you try to use it on USB or Bluetooth. In usb you need to switch off USB connection in AS. In bluetooth you should use NAP (Network Access Poin) service for connection.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] mrchris:
Hey, thanks for the hints, I've managed to get it working now (posting over it at the moment).

I was connecting via USB and disabling the active sync USB and changing the connection style on the phone seemed to fix it.

Always only use the charger that comes with the phone, other chargers may cause issues (damage battery, damage the phones charging port, etc.). its not gonna be really fatal if the charger is fine, but its reccomended to only use the charger what came with the device.

Sony xperia z5 premium is totally Qualcomm fast charge 2 capable.

I use my note 4 fast adaptive charger without any issues and it is fast charing as hell. This is because the phone support Qualcomm quick charge (which is a open standard from Qualcomm and Samsung use the same).

Even if you want you can't damage your battery because a controller inside the phone or the battery is controlling the charge, checking multiple parameters to avoid battery explosion.

It is simple - you can use even 5A charger, but the controller inside the phone will allow only safe charge rates.

So at the end, Yes you can use your note edge charger without any issues!

1- Backup your current ROM.

2- Flash a Touchwiz ROM

3- Restore your contacts

4- Backup the contacts using any applications or export them by Contacts app.

5- Restore your CM ROM and then restore the contacts.

Easy?? :D

Its not asking about network code again when i insert any sim card

But there is no network signal

I went to serch manual for signal operators but still nothing appears

Can you help me
[Samsung Gear S] foxbat121:
Gear S is a dual-band device. So, it depends on what version (mostly importantly which region) of the Gear S you have and where/which carrier you are using it on. For example, North American versions of Gear S can't be used elsewhere and vice versa.
[Samsung Gear S] mohamed elkadi:
it was att network carrier i m trying to use it with Vodafone Egypt carrier my model is SM-R750A

software version is : R750AUCU1ANJ7

I contact with some online Co. they give me Nck, Provider, Subprovider and Defreeze codes

when i insert Vodafone sim card into my gear s it asked for network unlocking code .. i did enter the Nck code they give me and its accepted

but still no signal

so i think if there is a way to use the others codes like the provider or defreeze codes it may work

what do u think??
[Samsung Gear S] foxbat121:
It is physically only capable of receiving 850MHz and 1900MHz signals that are used in North American countries. Rest of the world use 900MHz and 1800Mhz frequencies. Like I said, North American versions of Gear S can't be used out side North American. No codes will make it work. Different hardware.

Bluetooth problem

Hi Marc,

I recently got your app and I had a problem. I had two 3gen Moto gs with Line Rivals installed on both. The problem was with the bluetooth multiplayer. They connected easily, but after the the first person drew the track and drew their line, it wouldn't let the other player do their turn. I am pretty sure it's nothing wrong with my phone. It looks like a great game to play with another person on bluetooth. How can I get the bluetooth multiplayer to work?

Thanks,

I read somewhere that you can use safestrap to do this but this is somehting I never heard about. Anyway my primary goal is to have Dutch language support for the N910V (no problem if it's need to be rooted or flashed) and getting 3G or LTE worked in Europe. So if there is a solution without debranding it's also welcome.

Thanks in advance!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dwillian:
If your phone is a Verizon Note 4, then AFAIK it cannot be rooted, so Safestrap is not an option. I suggest you contact Verizon to see if it can support the Dutch language.

regardless of the language issue, 3G should work in Europe, as all verizon phones are carrier unlocked and supports GSM 850/900/1850/1900. Since the VZW Note 4 uses LTE Bands 3 and 7, you theoretically should see LTE in Netherlands with KPN, Vodafone, or T-Mobile

I am hoping for some help here, I have a Cingular 8125 its unlocked and all - for about a year I have been like most of you flashing different ROM's without any problems until now. My device will continually reset, it does not seem to matter what ROM I am running including the stock Cingular 2.25 ROM. It happens more often when I its not pluged in, and when I am using the web. It also sometimes cannot come out of the reset - so it will show the first boot screen then the second windows screen then reset again. It will do this until the battery is dead. When I plug it into the wall charger it will fully boot.

I am really stuck here any suggestions. I was thinking it might be a battery problem so I have orderd a new one.

I just need this thing to last for a few more months.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] vinayaga:
Do not give up !!!

New battery will not help here. I had the exact same problem and posted on this forum many times. Did not help. Changed the battery to a new one. Did not help. Flased the ROM many many times. Did not help.

And then right when I was ready to dump the phone in the dustbin, I downloaded and tried faria-htc-wizard-aku3.3-page-pool-8mb. It became much much better and it would reboot only on bad signals. Then I tried different radio roms, but the problem remained inconsistent.

Finally got hold of T-Mobile-UK_2.19.11_Radio_Only.zip and that was it. The combination of this radio and a clean faria-htc-wizard-aku3.3-page-pool-8mb (no other software) did the trick for me. I have a useless extra battery now, but the phone is rock solid.

Might not help you, but just wanted to tell you not to give up. There has to be some combination there that works.

[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Djurre2709:
I can't seem to find the answer to this question anywhere on the moto g forum, so that means I'll have to ask you guys myself.

I purchased this device after having an s3 mini. On the s3 mini I was able to install the TWRP recovery and some custom roms like cyanogenmod. But if anything would go wrong I would just flash the stock rom and bring it over to the store for repairs.

But after looking on this forum, it seems that whenever you unlock the bootloader on the moto g3 your warranty is permanently voided. So here's my question:

If I unlock the bootloader and flash TWRP, cyanogenmod, etc. and my device breaks. Would flashing stock and relocking the bootloader get my warranty back? ( i don't know if it makes any difference but i live in the Netherlands )

I hope you guys will be able to help me answer this question because i really want to root my device and get cyanogenmod on it.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ==vj==:
Warranty is legally void the moment you submit the unlock code to Motorola. They will update their database with your unlock code and provide you the unlock key.

So relocking bootloader or flashing stock rom won't restore your warranty legally. But if lucky, the motocare engineer might proceed to repair your phone by seeing stock rom on board. So keep stock while visiting motocare. But legally it doesn't renew your warranty.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
The answer is simple and easy to find... No, once you accept Motorola's T&C for unlocking the bootloader, which are crystal clear if you even glance at them, and receive your unlock token your warranty is void, period. You don't even have to actually unlock the bootloader, just accepting the T&C is enough. At this point your serial number/IMEI are flagged as warranty void in Motorola's database. The actual state of your device doesn't even matter.

BTW, technically what you did with your S3 should have voided the warranty, but depending on who handled the warranty (carrier or Samsung) and their thoroughness, many got through anyway. To the best of my knowledge the only devices you can modify significantly and not void the warranty are Nexus devices.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Djurre2709:
I've already been to the motorola site for unlocking the bootloader before (xda won't let me post the URL) and I have followed the instructions up until step 6: "Check if your device can be unlocked by pasting this string in the field below, and clicking “Can my device be unlocked?”

After that I did NOT click the "REQUEST UNLOCK KEY" button. Is my warranty voided because of following the steps up until step 6?

(because if it is voided, I might as well just root it already)
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
No, not yet... I don't remember the step #, but Until you accept the T&C and request the unlock token, your warranty is good.
