[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] migu29:
Sort of the same happened to me today. Let's hope is battery.

My G3 shut down suddenly although battery was at apologize 75%, blue screen and splash logo and flickering and then black screen.

After some time I managed to boot up and then 2-3 minutes later...off again. Repeating procedure, booting up and then immediately booting twrp. I thought something is wrong with my setup: fulmics 3.7 and xceed kernel latest nightly; managed to restore a backup (stock rooted MM) and everything was fine.

Phone boot up normally, apps beginning to update, made a few calls...and then...boom...shut down with the same flickering to blue screen. I hope is battery issue related. My phone is from August of 2014 and a bit abused since December (MM update).

Same here, no recovery, no download mode, nothing... I've tried shorting the pins and using boardiag (tests are all PASS except for SDRAM which I've been told it needs a power source to boot the device a.k.a battery :p) so i highly suspect it's a battery thing

Still waiting, but I now have the repair report. The phone they are sending back has a different serial number, so I presume they are sending a new/refurb phone?

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Liamfm:
Hi all, I've got a TF300T running stock 4.2. The device is unlocked (says so when starting). I can get ADB to recognize the device and reboot it. If I run reboot fastboot I get to a screen with 3 icons (RCK, android, wipe) and the text above "starting fastboot USB download protocol".

Running fastboot commands (with or without sudo) from my Mac doesn't provide a list of devices and I can't push TWRP.

If I choose RCK I get the little dude belly up with the red triangle.

Any help in getting fastboot to work? I"d love to go to a slimed down marshmallow rom if possible.

Thanks in advance!

FYI - I'm using moto-fastboot-osx64 as my fastboot file.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebonit:
Try to start adb and put in the command shell. ~# appear!

Copy into the open line:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4 bs=100 count=1 > enter!

Copy into the open line:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=16 count=1 >enter!

Now the tablet should start again into Android. If not try to start TWRP.

That's it! :)
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Liamfm:
I'm unsure as to where these commands are going. am I going into Terminal on my mac, running ADB and then the commands? ($ adb dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4 bs=100 count=1 > enter!)

I'm not trying to start it in Android, I'm trying to start in fastboot so I can load TWRP. Currently I think I have the stock recovery, but I can't even get into that.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebonit:
Did you do the first step:Try to start adb and put in the command shell. ~# appear! ?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Liamfm:
I'm not sure what you mean by "Start ADB" - if in a terminal, I can write adb device and see my device. Running adb ~# appear! returns the same as if I just hit "adb" and "enter".

Sorry - I'm used to the reboot commands, the device commands, etc - just not this "appear" command with the ~#
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebonit:
I'm verry sorry for that fail, but we rescued TF300T with Stock Rom JB 4.2 which got stuck several times using Windows 7/10

First step "adb devices": your device as a serial number or so on should appear,

Second step "shell": ~# should appear. After that you may use the commands I mentioned in my post. If it doesn't work forget my post.

BTW you may try this one http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=62498968&postcount=1046

Good luck!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbondo:
Bricked after attempting TWRP 2.8.2 Flash

I have the same problem, only now my TF300T will only boot as far as the Asus Logo. I can use ADB to recognize it, however when I attempt "fastboot reboot recovery," or "fastboot reboot bootloader" the tablet will only reboot to the Asus Logo. I can only force it into fastboot manually holding the Vol Down key. From this point neither adb devices nor fastboot devices will recognize the tablet. I've triedyou shell command and this is what I get:

C:\adb>adb devices

List of devices attached

C:\adb>adb shell ~# appear!

- exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2) -

Any suggestions?

[G4 General] Jaxione:
Hi!

I bought Lg G4 very much for its camera, but my Nexus 6 still takes better pictures...........

First pic is from g4 and second is from Nexus 6. G4 is picking up sunlight and making pictures to bright......very dissapointed.
[G4 General] milan187:
They look about the same to me. Try some different shots I guess.

I am quite impressed with G4 camera, beats the S6 edge and Priv we have.
[G4 General] Jaxione:
You can see the sunbeam on the back of the chair on the G4.

Here is two other examples. First one from Nexus 6, second one from G4. Nexus 6 pic is much more vivid and clear, LG G4 is to bright and catches all sunlight on the picture,
[G4 General] milan187:
Ohh yah I see it there. Have you tried dark shots with out sun light.

I don't have a Nexus 6 to compare but I do wonder if maybe you got a bad camera on a G4 (if that is possible).

Are you on the latest version too, M?

It may make a difference where you touch to focus too.
[G4 General] Cloudstrife:
This is just different focus points. G4 has laser focus and probably focuses on another area. Indoor pictures are crap anyway especially when shot against bright windows.
[G4 General] Jaxione:
Yes i am on Marshmallow. Still picks up every sunbeam there is, doesent matter where I focus. Here is another example. The sunbeam looks like a white mark across the picture, my Nexus 6 does not pick up that at all
[G4 General] toybxb:
see if this help:

clean the camera lens, then take a shot;

i have my G4 for 3 weeks and i love photography ! i have photos that make me say WT...lolololol

exemples:

https://goo.gl/photos/1guniv2cwdW3vBx9A

https://goo.gl/photos/CMxKBp5KfnUeVndN6

https://goo.gl/photos/FkYgDs6A2dQiTNjD7

all in manual mode
[G4 General] BobbyHenceMcGee:
You have full manual controls with RAW capability. Regardless of how auto works, tweaking manual settings will produce far better shots than the Nexus 6 would ever be capable of producing.

Now for the helpful less "fan boy sounding" response: LG tend to blow out highlights in the background to produce a proper exposure for the main subject.

Even the G5 looks like this will be the case, as sampled here

Personally, I think Samsung nailed the auto camera experience with the S6 generation phones. LG have more capability, but it's lessened by the fact most users are not photographers.

Kind of looking forward to the S7 for this reason, it brings back all the features I couldn't tolerate losing with the S6 and enhances the camera even more.

To fix your problem (particularly in environments like your photos)

Turn the brightness up to about 80% with auto brightness disabled

Switch to manual in the camera

Keep everything auto, but fiddle with ISO and exposure time.

Keep the ISO as low as possible while making sure you can take a photo without motion blur from hand shakes (1/30 is as slow as I go usually)

When it looks right on screen, take the shot.

If in doubt and you're feeling technogically empowered, enable RAW.

Happy snapping :)
[G4 General] kolembo:
Your shooting scene is a difficult one. Play with Manual. The G4 camera is plain excellent. Ecstatic even.
[G4 General] KoRoZIV:
If you want to record a video you are doomed, no manual mode there. Enjoy massive overexposure and over saturated colors. And the retarded ois of course...
[G4 General] krater1212:
Night shots are amazing. I took this one without flash in Netherlands. The best thing is it was with auto mode. In my opinion better camera than any other smarts.

Thanks all for your replies. Its going back. I want a phone with a camera who can take ok pictures without having to fiddle with manual settings. I am no photographer and have no interest in changing settings for every scenario.

İ thing ur LG g4's camera has some problem cause i also used h815 and right now h818p mine was not like that bad u can look my photo's from the link

Good shot is it automatic or Manuel if Manuel than if u was try to ISO 50 and 4second exposure u can get gread pics u can also check my photos if u want
[G4 General] davebugyi:
I went through my gallery to check indoor pictures. Definitely a faulty unit/optics/glass you have there, did not notice the same effect here.
[G4 General] zekerijah:
Maybe you (OP) are looking at it from a wrong angle. I think the G4 camera just records what is sees. It's not its fault that there are sun rays. On the other hand, the N6 doesn't capture what there really is. Besides, the net is full of tutorials how to catch sunbeams. With G4 you get it out of the box. :)
[G4 General] gerhard_wa:
This must be a problem with dirt on the lens or the protective glass, nothing to do with the camera, the camera is awesome. Could even be on the inside so it might be hard to remove without disassembling the phone.
[G4 General] daglesj:
Yeah the OIS is frankly terrible. I don't take any video with my G4 because of it.
[G4 General] the_scotsman:
Yep, looks to me like the lens had a smear or something on it.
[G4 General] 012512:
I have 505 serial dual h818N. Having a vignette effect when on 60 fps mode. Some users reported that they have no issue like mine. Ois is terrible on my device IMHO.
[G4 General] danieldp1990:
I just own the G4 and I have to say hat video quality exposure and all that stuff its the best. maybe you need to learn a bit on how to use a proper camera.
[G4 General] KoRoZIV:
Of course, always an expert who assumes that he is the cake and everybody else with different opinions/experiences is dumb.

Nothing to learn when I'm taking the same fotos and videos with a Nexus 5 and a g4 and the g4 fails almost every time. The g4 has more pixels, more clarity (better hardware) but the colors and light are off. I managed to get decent shots with the g4, but it's not worth the time. If I really want a god photo I would use a dslr, but we are talking about phones and casual use. If I use the auto mode the g4 fails 4 out of 5 pictures, the Nexus 5 only 1. Maybe something is wrong with mine, but I doubt it, as I tried and compared with two other owners and no big difference; it's for sale now anyway, I want something smaller. I could live with the camera, but other small things are adding up...

PS.

Here is an example, auto vs manual; changed only the ISO in manual. Outside was like in the manual shot, much darker than the auto one.

https://www.flickr.com/photos/138867258@N03/shares/9BxEzB

As for the ois on this phone... a lot of videos online comparing g4 with s6 or other crappy phone side by side, where it's clear that it makes things worse not better for a video.

I have nothing to prove here, I'm happy that some users like the camera and don't have issues with it; but you don't see me calling them ignorants because their opinions are different than mine.
[G4 General] sinple:
At this point of time, most smart phone takes decent photo. It usually boils down to the person taking the photo
[G4 General] KoRoZIV:
Yes, the user is to blame for the auto mode using ridiculous ISO and boosting the colors... Like I said before, I can get great/decent photos with the g4 on manual mode, but the auto mode is crap. And you can't use manual when you record a video.

I think the software is mostly to blame for this, other apps are a little better at point & shoot.
[G4 General] One Twelve:
filmic pro or cinema fv-5 ?

both allow to control iso & shutter in video. Not seen any reviews of them yet though.

Tell that to the 5x/6p people ;)

---------- Post added at 03:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:18 PM ----------

Exactly and OP has no intent to learn and thus will be doomed to average photos until he changes. I also sense some anxiety. he bought this thing and is afraid it won't hold up. Did not do his research.

It amazes me whenever i see a thread like this that people can judge a camera on the basis of how many photos ?

a handful. lol.

These threads are there for every camera on this board. The amount of bashing that goes on with other devices is just incredible.

Cameras don't know what your intent is. They are just tools. Some are more capable than others. G4 is such a camera.
[G4 General] KoRoZIV:
It is a capable camera, not denying that; I just hate the auto mode, the only mode that I see fit for a phone ( for me at least ). I even like the way the app is designed, far more than everything I've tried so far. But how is my fault that it gives me ISO 300 and unnatural color in very good light conditions ? And why if I take the same shot multiple times (>5) one or two are decent and the rest are crap ? And an old n5 with inferior hardware manages very well in the same conditions ( not the pixels/detail and clarity but the colors and the light )

Have a g4 crop, no other edit :)

I think that was a decent auto, not sure if manual mode was used.
[G4 General] One Twelve:
It's a lovely shot :)

Auto is convenient but in a tricky lighting situation it will get it wrong. Happens with all cameras in varying degrees. Every camera has its quirks, if you recognise them you won't be surprised in fact you will anticipate it.

I like to take shots of lighting at night but auto will never get it right, drop iso a stop or two and always get a good shot. This is a fairly narrow use case with a std workaround, with any camera. It's not a flaw but reviewers like to point it out as such. Blowouts are going to happen more often with fast lenses with wide dynamic range.lighting. Much more than with smaller apertures.

And then show you another device where it does not happen. heh, course that thing will trip up in some other place and you back to the same place. lumia 950 is a good example. good camera but has trouble getting focus when light gets low. Its difficult to even use manual focus with it.

If you want consistency shoot on a tripod, then five shots wont be different. But if you're handholding then burst and hopefully you get one decent one. Point the camera in a slightly different angle the shot will come out different. This is normal auto behaviour. Its a major issue with camera shootouts that are not done on a tripod. One gets it right because it got lucky. This one is then called the winner and the others are losers. nah.
[G4 General] Andybaby:
Have you tried turning HDR on on the G4? you should get a very different result.
[G4 General] Rapunzl:
All you need to do in auto mode is touch the screen where you want to focus. Of course, the camera needs to be still or it will lose focus before you take the picture.
[Xposed General] RedRamage:
I'm a huge ebook reader and love to read on my phone. As a general rule I like to use the Google Apps if they do the job I need 'em for. Google Play Books has failed me though. (Queue the image of a guy in a hood speaking with a deep voice: You have failed your user!)

Okay, stupid reference aside, here's my biggest three areas where I find the app lacking:

1.) In-ability to NOT use immersive mode. I often will read on my lunch break at work. During this time, as well as other times, I really like to have the clock visible just by a quick glance at the top of the screen. Further, it's nice to be able to see new notifications coming in and read 'em without having to exit the app.

2.) Ability to tweak visual settings. I prefer to have a light grey background vs. white. And at night I prefer to have a slightly blue hue to the letters as this makes it less bright.

3. I'd love a quick and easy way to switch between night and day display modes. Right now it's a four tap processes. Right now it's a four-tap process to do this.

So yeah... these are all of course "first world problems" in that I could easily live without them. Alternately, I could just use Moon Reader+ (which I do right now) which solves all of these problems. But I do like the clean interface and easy of syncing/accessing my books through google, so the question:

Is there any modules that can handle any or all of these tweaks?

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] geckoquiver:
rom

You can't. That's why it's called rom. (read only memory). the only way is cook your own rom. If you like mfrazzz's rom then you can recook it.

Hope this helps.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Why do you want to remove it? If you don't like it, don't use it. If you don't want to see it in the program files, then remove the .lnk file and you don't have to see it.

Understand that the rom area is an area that you can't get to. So those programs being on your phone don't cause you to have less space on your device (you can't use that area anyway). So install the lite version and remove shortcuts you don't want to see.

Or as suggested, dump the rom with a kitchen, and pull out what you don't want, and then rebuild the rom and flash it...

Hi, MFazz.

You're touching on an interesting issue here. Let's consider two versions of your R3: Light and Loaded. Do they have (roughly) the same speed, same storage memory and same program memory?...

And lastly, are you by chance planning R4?

[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] czesu:
Hi, I bought myself a Moto G couple days ago and wanted to use it to play games over moonlight. Unfortunately not a single one of the 3 gamepads I tested works (2 out them do work with my android 4.2 tablet). The OTG itself is working since I can use mouse and the leds blink when I connect DualShock 3. I'm using stock (rooted) lollipop so my guess is that the guys at lenovo are a bunch of pricks and they removed the drivers from kernel. I'm not really too much into smartphones or linux in general anymore so could somebody help me with installing the drivers? If I'm not mistaken I have to install hid-sony.ko module but I don't know how to get it (do I have to somehow compile it myself from sources?) and how to actually install it. I would rather not install another rom if there is some easy way of adding the support to my current one.
