I bought the LG Optimus Pro and rooted it with Towelroot before I left the store. Quick Memo / Screen Capture worked fine after root. Before I got home and disabled the OTA upgrade, AT&T forced 4.4.2. Everything still worked fine. But then, I got involved with The TOR Project & The Guardian Project. Current stats: Kernel 3.4.0, Build KOT491.E98020h, Baseband APQ80641MDM9x15M. A few weeks ago, I wanted to capture a screen shot. I got an error message that said, "unable to capture screen, please try again later".

I tried everything to fix the issue to no avail. Then just before a hard reboot, I got out of Orfox and Orbot and loaded Firefox Beta. Screen Capture was back. Still curious, I closed Firefox and loaded Orbot & Orweb. No Screen Capture. Closed that out and loaded Orbot & Firefox Beta. Screen Capture was active again. I hope this helps those who have lost Quick Memo / Screen Capture.

Hey guys,

DISCLAIMER

Im NOT FORCING ANYONE to try it for me but if they wanna voulenteer to test it for me, it would be a pleasure. I have made this rom via dsxdia android kitchen and i got the system files from the original update.zip because the one from the tot wont open up after i merge them for some reason.

This will flash the system and boot.img files. I need someone to test it for me or risk thier device for a brick if they can. Yeah i know i should wait till get mines back from repair but im eager to get root on this thing. So it would be nice if someone that has an extra g4 laying around wanna helpout its development.

I want to help you, but I'm planning on selling my phone soon to go to Verizon, so I don't want to mess anything up.
[Sprint LG G4] Agimax:
Chances are it will not boot due to not matching signature, I've tried different mixes when it first came out, and you will also need modem partition.

I have tried kernel, modem and system from MM over LP, resulting in a security error...

Good luck, hope you get your version working somehow.
[Sprint LG G4] Awesomeslayerg:
Then why did you say you'd give it a go? :confused:

Anyways its alright.. oh I'm pretty sure you can use this on Verizon as I can use this on t mobile

You cannot use this phone on Verizon. I looked into it. T-Mobile is a whole other deal and even on T-Mobile you probably won't get all their bands.

Sprint LG G4 contains Bands 2, 4, and 12 which are all the bands T-Mobile uses.

Hi, have anyone tried to find out whether this method works?

my LG G4 sprint is stuck with ZV6 (customised, international) and also secure boot error 1006, unable to boot into download mode. I seriously need a solution.
[Sprint LG G4] Arctic Prodigy:
Everything you need here thanks to Mayrer to get your Sprint to running with T-Mobile.

http://xdaforums.com/spri...nlock-t3229801

Bands 2, 4, 12 are for bands T-Mobile.

Download PropEditor and edit these settings....Don't forget this step first!!

ro.build.target_operator=SPR => TMO

ro.build.target_country=US

ro.telephony.default_network => 9

telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice => 0 ....don't forget to save and reboot.

Along with Hidden Menu 5689#*991# to change your APN settings properly and set

Field Test => Modem Settings =>

PDP Setting => [5] APN Setting ...... now you have to select the bottom one then go into menu [ ] press until you see delete APN

you must do this because a bug I am seeing only allows the bottom APN setting to be used, I usually delete all until the APN I use is on the very bottom selection. no go back

Network Mode = Automatic => go back => RAT Selection = GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto

LTE Band Selection doesn't work proplerly so installing the modded Shortcut Master (Lite) from the link above be sure to go to

lotHiddenMenuMain (witout root) => LTE setting=> LTE Data Roam Config....and enable

Bar Roam Forced

Bar Roam Enabled

Roam Guard Forced

Roam Guard Enabled

Band 2

Band 4

Band 12 go back

Band 25 should be disabled unless you can use it. You cannot really set APN here.

I sometimes install the CDMA to GSM patch for global phones but I then have to re-do the PropEditor settings again, but it may be able to configure anything else that is missing, you can try to Adb Sideload the zip or use FlashGordon app to try to install, honestly I don't know if either worked for me for the patch.

This is what I configure to get my phone to working with T-Mobile.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wowwhat:
I have been an android user for a long time, but this one is stumping me as there is no process or specific error. I have searched and haven't found anyone with a similar problem. Just got a Nexus 6 today and it will not make any notification sounds. The notification volume is all the way up and phone calls have a ringtone that works. What is really throwing me off is that when I am in the general settings or the settings for any other app, clicking on a notification sound has no response. I will be in settings and overlooking the list of potential default notification sounds and no matter which one I click there is no noise, as where with the ringtones they all will play me the sample.

If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate it, I hate that something this simple has stumped me somehow.

Thank you.

this happens with my alarm sound in the settings. it just won't play it, even though its a google sound. but, when its needed, like when my alarm goes off, it sounds. and that's what is really important. so I ignore the fact that it doesn't play in settings anymore (it used to though).

[General Questions and Answers] skyx26:
I have an old Motorola Milestone (Droid) that I want to use as a music player. The music files are stored on my Windows PC.

Can anyone suggest me a music player that can access files from a PC using a samba conection?. I'm using and old CyanogenMod 7 custom ROM (Android 2.3 Gingerbread).

I already try Poweramp and there is no Samba support.

I try Kodi, old versions and new ones, it install but it never start.

I also try subsonic but it need a service to be installed on the PC, and what I want is something independent from source.

I did try Neutron, it starts, I config the source but I can "see" all the folders on the PC HDD, so it doesn't work (or I didn't know how make it work properly).

Samba Network Music Player work PERFECT... but it lacks the WinAMP playlist support. It can't see them nor play them...

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Journyman16:
I'd like to try setting up my N9005 without Play Store and Google Play Services. Part of the reason is the battery use by Google Apps of various types and the other is the necessity of allowing those apps access to dial the phone, send SMS etc.

I'd like to see if I can make my phone more efficient AND more secure.

So far I'm looking at getjar.com, androidtapp.com and appbrain.com. Which app sites do you use and is it reasonable to find one that provides apps that don't use Google Play functions?

Suggestions welcome and experiences on any alternative sites would be appreciated? Also opinions or experiences in getting rid of the google connection... :D

I once tried to use my Nexus 7 without Gapps. and then my Livescore app said it needed GPServices. again a shopping app said it needed GPS to run. then I installed Gapps :|
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Journyman16:
So we're stuck with Google unless we reduce functionality way down?

Hm... I recall seeing a CM Apps option a while back and I am running AOSP on my N9005 - will have a look for it. Thanks for the Reply.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nijom:
the best thing would be installing Pico or Nano version of GApps. Only Play store, Play Services and Contact Sync come with it. :)

Of course. That is exactly what he wants. :sly:
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Journyman16:
While that sounds good, those are pretty much exactly the apps that crash the phone if you try to interfere with call/SMS permissions. What I am trying to find out is if it is possible to have a functional and useful phone WITHOUT having Google privy to everything I do.

Just because I am paranoid doesn't mean they're not after me. :D

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jisoo:
It's possible, but it'll depend on your definition of "functional".

I run my phone without gapps, and have calendar and contacts sync with my own server. I use syncthing for file sync, and open source for almost everything (Skype being one exception).

So for me it's fully functional, and the battery life is great. YMMV.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Journyman16:
Without GApps where do you get your apps? I've been touring sites trying to find a decent one and also discovering apps to replace those with Google links. The issue currently seems to be many good apps still tie back into Play for updates or verification purposes.

For example I have SPenCommand from a Google+ site but updates can usually be manual - i.e. I could DL them on PC and copy them over. The problem would be needing to have a link to the site (I think) to licence check. But that's something I can ask the Dev about. :D

That sounds pretty close to what I need. Phone, Contacts, Calendar, preferably syncing to Outlook on PC but given I am also thinking of moving to Linux, not wedded to Outlook or MS Products, nor I guess even to live syncing. I WOULD like to have backups in case phone goes away suddenly, but I can learn to use Cloud - something I have been avoiding. :D

I like playing with ROMs and have just started a course in App development online - my thought was to set up a dual boot with a standard GApps setup for testing as well as an unlinked one for daily driver.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Journyman16:
Been looking at Aptoide as a store that maybe i can use without a Google account. Seems to have quite a few categories of apps so i am currently trying to work out what I need versus what I want on my phone. I currently have quite a few apps that i haven't touched in months so I figure they are probably not needed.

Any suggestions on what you consider a must have app or app category?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00363:
One possible alternative to play store is Blackmarket. It works great and it has almost all the apps present in the play store. And its best feature is that it provides paid apps for free:D

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dan60:
Hi.

I'm testing now the following approach.

With Titanium Backup I froze Google Play (not for Google Play Services because I'm testing) and use Aptoide and Uptodown apps to updating.

My issue is Google Play is ALWAYS changing its configs which I've set to "not update automatically" and lots of warnings on screen telling me Google Play or Play Services stopped working.

Also I'm testing whether other apps also stop working.

Aptoide and Uptodown apps obey much better and don't change its configs.

Am I right that all these stuff are related to Google Play, soon I'll be able to return here with a more affirmative answer.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Playb3yond:
When I first received my S5, I believe I saw the option to unlock the bootloader via the settings menu. I thought it was a build that the device came with on either 5.0 or 4.4.2. I was wondering because I was wanting to download to it to see if the option was still available and if it still supported it's desired function. I just want an unlocked bootloader to be honest
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] rlichtefeld:
The T-Mobile version of the S5 (SM-G900T) comes with an unlocked bootloader. I point this out, since you posted this on the T-Mobile forum.

Do you have a phone other than a SM-G900T?

Rob
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Playb3yond:
I do, SM-G900T, but I'm not so certain my bootloader is unlocked, if it was, I would have the unlock symbol on the first boot splash screen.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
It comes with an unlocked bootloader, if you're asking for the purpose of flashing a custom recovery or kernel you're all set you can do so automatically
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Playb3yond:
Okay, so that explains how you can flash a custom recovery / kernel without the need to root first. Makes sense.

Hello.

Some minutes ago I "washed" my phone with water, just a flow of warm water from the sink, less than 30 seconds. Approximately after 2 minutes I removed the back cover and dried it. After that, the speaker became very low and with bad quality sound, and progressively got louder and louder until it got back it's normal sound. Is that normal with this or any waterproof phone?

Thanks! Sorry if I don't explained myself very well, English is not my native language.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sticktornado:
Completely normal, my phone does the same thing. The water, while it doesn't get UNDER the speaker, still covers it. As for the sound raising back to normal, that's just the water evaporating.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CriticalComposer:
I have bricked my S3 before and have successfully unbricked it. This time is very much unlike the last, however. To start with, I don't know what caused the brick. My S3 has been working perfectly on rooted stock firmware for several months. The day it bricked, I was using it normally and hit the power button for it to go to sleep. 3 hours later I noticed I hadn't heard any notifications and I found that my phone wasn't turning on. So for starters, I don't even know what caused my phone to become bricked.

Anywho, I located the unbrick img, booted into Linux, and flashed the image to an SD card. Popped that into the S3 and....nothing. After some searching I found there was a specific unbrick img for the new bootloader that came with the KK updates. After flashing that image to the SD and popping it in the S3 I was greeted with the "Boot Recovery Mode" which appears to transfer to Odin Mode just fine.

I open Odin 3.07 and tried flashing the factory reset tar for NJ2 and I get this:

<ID:0/005> Odin v.3 engine (ID:5)..
<ID:0/005> File analysis..
<ID:0/005> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/005> Initialzation..
<ID:0/005> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/005>
<ID:0/005> There is no PIT partition.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

So I found 2 different PIT files for my Sprint Galaxy S3 16GB. Both give me this error:

<ID:0/005> Odin v.3 engine (ID:5)..
<ID:0/005> File analysis..
<ID:0/005> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/005> Initialzation..
<ID:0/005> Set PIT file..
<ID:0/005> DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!
<ID:0/005> FAIL!
<ID:0/005>
<ID:0/005> Re-Partition operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

I tried this in Odin 3.09 and even 1.85 just to see if any of that would magically work. Nope. I saw several users report that rebooting the phone/PC would get the PIT to flash but nothing on that front either. So I'm guessing that means the PIT files are bad but I find that a little difficult to believe. I also noticed that Odin 1.85 reports the device as "Android+SLP" and not an S3. I also read about the S3 having a problem with its eMMC and that it would need to be shipped away for motherboard surgery. So I'm prepared to call the time of death on this phone but I figured I would give one last ditch attempt by presenting my situation to the genius collective of XDA. Any suggestions?

If you check around it was suppose to be promised to tmobile a few days ago, so, knowing Verizon and the ungodly amount of bloat they shove down our throats and how they disable features because 'they' think they are not useful, i predict into February easy.

If memory served me correct it was someone by the name of 'football' who leaked them. Maybe he got fired lolz.

I am considering jumping ship from HTC and getting a nexus 5x, I am just frustrated with 'Verizon Certified' stuff. it is usually a bunch of bloatware and then they go in and disable features. Besides HTC will only support the device for 2 years. I like the idea of the software update coming directly from Google; like Apple does it, zero carrier intervention is the way to go.

Not sure I know anyone with a nexus 5x to ask what they think.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dragontology:
No one knows. HTC promised it by the end of last year, but they only made that deadline for the international version. The US isn't a priority in Taiwan.

You can run Santod's NuSenSeveN if you're S-OFF. That's pretty close to what we'll get, minus bloatware. And it pretty much runs perfectly. I'm currently on Captain's GPE, which was made for Sprint but works just fine on Verizon.

I'm going to Project Fi in June, just as soon as my contract is up. To the day. I'm jumping to a 128GB 6P.

Check Best Buy. I heard they were carrying the 6P. Might have the 5X as well. No guarantees though. YouTube should have some videos. I like Marques Brownlee. His specialty is cameras (pro grade) so when he talks about a phone's camera, he knows what he's talking about. And he's well versed in the other aspects as well. Here's his review of the Nexus 5X.
