[LG G Flex 2] ralphn8r:
I bought the phone like many others on this site did, off of a dealer on ebay. The seller wasn't an authorized LG outlet, but seemed reputable. So now that I've had the phone for awhile, I've notice some significant discoloration on the screen, and a large dead pixel.

LG's website says there's a year long manufacturers warranty on the Flex 2, but I don't know if it would apply. Anyone have any experience with this? If I sent it in for a replacement, would it be free? I need some info because LG's site isn't giving me any.

Thanks!
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] razinx:
I have the C5J6 model and before upgrading to Mireks roms I was on the stock rom. While on stock my brightness was controllable, ranging from the expected low to very bright. After upgrading to Mirek v6.1 the brightness option was no longer controllable and appears to be at a set position. I can still move the brightness slider, but nothing actually happens. I have just moved up to v7 and the issue still exists.

I have the dual boot model, so to be sure I wasn't loosing my mind I booted into Windows and brightness is controllable and very bright at the highlest level, as I like it. So I know it's definitely related to something with the rom or Android in general.

Is there a fix to this, or something I am missing?

Aside from this Mireks roms have worked beautifully.

Thanx!
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] razinx:
I seemed to have resolved this by installing a brightness app which worked on its own and then seemed to restore functionality to the native brightness control.

I downloaded a bt patch but the problem remains. I wonder whether it's a software or hardware problem..

Yes, I can't make my navigation program to see the gps receiver and after a while it gets disconnected...
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] Joe Pinball:
To the OP - you said you cant get your navigation software 'see' the GPS - this is the root of the problem.

If your BT GPS unit doesnt see any requests to send data to the PDA, it will auto-switch off after a set period of time.

Once you can successfully configure your nav software to receive the GPS data, your bluetooth GPS unit will remain powered on.

You should have a software CD that came with the GPS unit (if not there are a number of freely downloadable GPS utilites for PDAs, some of which can scan for the unit to find it)- there's usually some very low-quality GPS checking utility that displays what satellites the unit can see, signal strength and so on: try using these programs to see if you can connect to your GPS, and if the unit than keeps the BT link open.

Maybe finding out which COM port the GPS unit appears on, will allow you to configure your nav software correctly to see the GPS.

Joe

Thanks for your advice I am still haviong big problems .

I have managed to get Tom tom to recognise a wired reciever ( but only once , and then when the cigarete lighter plug moved the unit powered down all was lost.

Do you know of any utilities that will show what is connected to what port as I believe this is the real problem . Aparently tom tom has a bad history of hijacking ports ?

It would be good to see what was actually going on .

Is CM responsible for horrible battery drainage problem like 60-80% to 0?

For investigating this I flashed cleanly CM lp based rom many times but no luck.

I turned back to CM 11 but again no luck.

Finally I flashed Carbon kitkat an AOSP rom and now the battery drainage is not like that as in CM i.e 100 -70 as normal and after that two or thee bump of 10-15% to from 70-0.

I know it may be battery issue and my moto E is 15 months old but I dont't think that in any type of branded mobile however low budget phone it is,the battery issue comes as early as in moto E.

Is it be the flashing problem as we testers flash different types of roms daily .

Then why this issue is not happening in carbon rom?

Please testers throw a light on that.

Thank you.:good:

Finally I flashed stock 5.1 optiised deodexed,lets see what's the result and I'll tell.
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ptmaroct:
True, you are not the only one facing this problem.

I tried Official Cm 12.1 December build and the battery drain on standby was huge.

Now that we have official CM 13, it uses the same tree and hence the problem persists.

I am sure it is a bug but the bad part is it is not noticeable or else it would have been fixed by now.

Soltuion: Use Mokee ROM, which is official for our device and is based on AOSP instead of CM.

Note: Right now it is Lollipop and soon they will start Marshmallow nighties. I recommend using stable lollipop version.

I am using it for weeks and it has definitely the best battery life. SOT has jumped to 7 hours and the standby is also better.
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ankshious:

[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ptmaroct:
Sure, try stock. I am 99% sure it is CM's problem as many people are facing the same problem.

After stock, try Mokee. It's really stable and has all the necessary features. And one more thing, the release version is odexed which means faster boot and more stability. It also has OTA updates.

[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ALPHAWolf96:
This is surely due to excessive flashing attempts. I was literally flashing five to six ROMs a day? and my battery starts to give unusual drops from 15 to 0, 25 to 0 then it started to increase, from 40 to 0 (even on stock). So I replaced the battery with a new original one and it's working great now.

I also own another condor which is also running cm 12.1 and I mostly use to clean flash a new build every one or two month, and that device is still giving a battery life like as a new one.

PS. Bought both devices on 14 may 2014.

Anyone having WiFi disconnecting during sleep issue lately on cm12.1 and 13 ?

It usullay disconnects when device is at sleep for around 30 minutes or so and reconnects on waking up. Though the setting is enabled for WiFi connection during sleep.

Hit thanks if I helped you☺
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ankshious:
Yes, I also think excessive flashing is responsible for the battery fault and it should be not due to CM.

Me 2 having the same problem!

First it all started by a bump of 10%-0%

Than it increased ..bump of 15%-0%

Than 20%-0%

I tried many ROMs still had the same problem! ..I read somewhere at XDA that lithium ion doesn't need full charge and overnight charging is harmful.. And can cause bumps ..

So I charged my battery to 75% and than I didn't got any bump ..as I tested till 3%..

So what I suggest is..those who are facing large battery bumps, do not charge overnight and charge till 80% and check ..

But all the xiaomi not use the B20 radion :(

I see it's possible to unlock B20 for smartphone use Qualcom soc ?

I don't know if is possible to unlock the B20 for the Xiaomi Mi4c ? It use a Qualcom 808 soc.

Please help me for use the B20 in the Xiaomi Mi4c ;)
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] jonasb_dk:
Unfortunately you can't unlock band 20 at the moment, in fact you might not ever be able to unlock the band. So if it's crucial for you to have band 20, buy a different phone. :(

However, it's a really nice phone, if if you don't necessarily need the specific band, then this phone is a good buy I believe. :o

I don't have this phone (yet :( ) But, my Telco uses Band 20 too.

What I intend to do is use my sim for phone calls/TXT's and get a 'Pay As You Go' LTE sim for Net access.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] ggkameleon:
If you see the most good chines provider don't use B20 Mezu Xiaomi Lenovo why ? And other use it but it's not the more good smartphone or huawei use it but the price are expensive. When you see the last Xiaomi Redmi 3 Redmi note 3 and now MI5 very good smartphone and not expensive.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] ggkameleon:
Hi din't know what is it a 'pay as you go' ?

But if your telco use b20 you can't have 4g lte in b20 ! But if use with b20 the band b7 or b3 the phone connect to b3 or b7 if ist possible or connect to wcdma in 3g network !

But i can't know why meizu pro 5 use the same soc exynos than galaxy s6 and the galaxy s6 work in b20 ! It's not possible to unlock b20 in meizu?
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] Logic_:
He meant he'll use a second, prepaid sim to get LTE from another provider who uses a different band. Although it's been said that using the dual sim function on this phone reduces battery life quite a bit.

Yes, if you don't have the correct 4G bands, but do have the 3G or 2G bands, your phone will be fully functional, just not have the best speed possible.

It's not just a matter of having the same soc, it's a combination of soc, radio and firmware. In some phones a workaround can be found to unlock the radio, others not.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] ggkameleon:
Ah ! Ok but if they are a provider don't use B20 go it ! Don't use two provider ? Ok it's not possible to unlock.

Me in my country (France) They are 4 provider Free use 2600 for 4g, but it's a new provider and they are not many radio in 4g and even less 3g :( I test it's not possible. Bouygues use for 4g 1800 2600 and a little 800 it's the best for chinese smartphones but where I leave there are not radio :( Orange use for 4g 800 2600 and in radio there are two band in city but in campaign only 800 :( Sfr use 800 2600 and use a lot of 800 and it's actually my provider. I speak with users of chinese phone the best are Bouygues or Orange because the one don't use many 800 and the second if don't possible to use 800 the phone go to H+ (wdcma 900) and the speed of 4g 800 it's the almost the same of H+ wcdma 900 !?

If I buy a Xiaomi or Meizu I do change my provider but the smartphone do use the 3G Wdcma 900 ! I believe do use it.

The problem now it's Xiaomi block the boot loader of the new phones ? I see the new Redmi note 3 Pro it's a more good quality but It's more complicated to change language and don't use B20 ! I'm disappointed.... I stay to see what Xiaomi make for international customers.

Ok i understand ;)

Yes it's not a good idea to use 2 different provider one don't use b20 and one use it !

Because if you have a provider don't use b20 go for this provider ;) Because you paid 2 provider ! It's just if you are in contract you can make this option but it's more expensive.

In France all provider use b20 ! Only one don't use but there are not enought radio.

Thank you for your message I understand it's to complicated to unlock band and it's possible to use only in 3g.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] Logic_:
Yes, too complicated or simply not possible with the hardware. Whatever the case, 3G can be more than sufficient.. I have never done anything with my phone that required more speed than 3G.

However, the phone does have a lot of other LTE bands, be sure to double check if there's not one that matches, it was the case for me.

1(2100), 3(1800), 7(2600), 38(2600), 39(1900), 40(2300), 41(2500)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LTE_networks_in_Europe according to this, there should be enough in france that match to provide normal LTE operation.

This provider use fifty/fifty FDD B20 800mhz/B7 2600mhz and UMTS B8 900mhz/B1 2100mhz

That good for Xiaomi Meizu FDD-LTD except FDD B20 800mhz

But there are a new problem with Chinese smartphones the Boatloder are lock now :(

I use Apple phones after Samsung with 3gs 4s and 5s but now the price of their phones are to much and not as high as the difference of Use Android phones ! It's stupid now to buy a smartphone than 800/1000$ it's not possible to my heart and my wife said go out of home if you buy it !!! Paid us a travel and buy another phones. she's right ;) you know.

The problem will be in a zone where the SFR antenna will deliver 4G only on the unsupported band, you will have only 3G.

Tu as donc une sim Pro chez Sfr ! Pourrais tu me dire à l'usage comment se comporte la 4g chez Sfr sans la bande B20 ? Tu est dans qu'elle région ? Moi j'habite près de Lyon et dans ma commune Sfr/Orange ne délivre pas la 4g ! Donc pas un soucis, puis à l amaison suis en Wifi et la 3g me conviens pour envoyer MMS pas de soucis.

Sinon je travaille sur Lyon et j'ai regardé les antennes Sfr au tour de mon travail sont toutes en 800/2600 il y à les 2 fréquences sur chaque antennes donc ne pense pas me posera de problème ! Sauf en intérieur.

J'ai été abonné chez Free et trop galère à 80% en itinérances et ma batterie fondait comme neige au soleil et pratiquement jamais en 4g. J'ai été Sosh également, bon pas trop de différence avec Sfr, mise à part en intérieur je captais mieux avec Sosh Orange et meilleur débit 4g (mais joue à très peu).

Je souhaite changer mon iPhone 5s et désire vraiment un Xiaomi ;) Rapport qualité prix.

Je travaille vers le puy en Velay et ma maison est a proximité de St Étienne. Pas de véritable problème lie a la limitation des bandes passantes, mon soucis est plutôt quelques zones mortes (y compris 2G) sur certaines petites routes.

[Shield Android TV Android Development] Xstar410:
xposed module to modify user apps for leanback support such as emulators or sideloaded **free** games that never show up on Android TV such as NSTV.

The idea behind this to make it work is really simple....somehow the module will:

1. Load ALL user apps that don't have leanback support

2. Modify either permanently/load the app's manifest to add leanback LAUNCHER & other lines to it.

3. On restart Theoretically it should work with almost all apps being modified for Android TV.

Side note:

Any app/game that only has touch support will NOT work at all since those apps probably don't have either controller, keyboard, & mouse support at all and it will be just redundant to mod them...

(Tried playing cod zombies on NSTV...I tried all key mapping apps and nothing worked.)

THIS MODULE WILL PROBABLY REPLACE THAT **SIDELOAD LAUNCHER**

From the way I wrote this you should have already guessed that the module has NOT been made yet, since more research is needed to be done in order to progress any further than an idea, but I'm posting it now for anyone that's wants to tackle this project or help me make it(new to xposed module developing.)
[Shield Android TV Android Development] xd4d3v:
No need for an xposed module. just a new launcher, there's a few out already, not great though

for the mapping, I don't think it's possible to do that, xposed or not due to different mappings per game, the shield TV community is tiny, without many developers onboard.. will be a tough to get anyone with knowledge to write anything at this stage.
