[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] ales100i:
For me the experience has been really great with this phone. It is nothing flashy (except camera), but overall user experience has been just right. Don't know how to put it otherwise.

It has a brilliant form factor and weight distribution so it is very easy to handle, pick up, lay down. Build quality at least for my device is top notch. I for one do not hate the feel of the phone. I never liked the cold feeling of all metal phones. And I just hate glass backs on a phone, as it is a fingerprint magnet, which I compulsively need to clean every few minutes, and they are slippery as well. Screen is also not the best, but it's very very good. I especially like the colors of it. It has a very minimalistic UI, which can even more be toned down with third party apps and apps from google. Speed has never been an issue, zero lag. Battery gets me through the day no problem. Handles everything I throw at it. Really actually no need for custom rom so far.

The only problem I have is WiFi is not always doing it's job. Sometimes it does not reconnect to saved spots and sometimes when i'm connected to some WiFi spots, i have no internet. Have to restart the phone, to resolve the issue. And this was not a problem from the start, it just started happening a few weeks ago. Anyone have a similar problem, or a solution?

But all that being true, I do miss flashing roms. I guess a bit of an addiction I developed over the years. But I'm sure roms will come. I have only one fear that aosp roms on this phone may have problems. They will have problems with dual camera support and probably module support, as those are specific to our device and will have to be developed specially for this phone. We will see.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Soufiansky:
Thank you very much for the feedback , so appreciated.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rosa Elefant:
Coming from the LG G4, I really fail to see why the G5 has such a bad reputation. Sure, the design is questionable and it seems that the early versions are not as well crafted as mine, but that's true for all new smartphones. The one big issue for me are the visual problems when changing the dpi, but I'm confident LG will fix this with an update some time soon. (I bet they read xda too.)

So, if any LG representative is stumbling upon this thread: I know your sales could be better. But please don't become a second Samsung just because Samsung has a lot of customers. LG is the only respectable company with non-fixed batteries. If you'll ever start a presale of the G5 successor, I'm in!
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Soufiansky:
I can't really say that the G5 is a great device , some says it's awesome while some have a lot of complaints...But one thing is sure , the G5 wasnt as good aa the LG G4/G3/G2 , these phones had made a huge success worldwide , this year, Samsung destroyed everyone with their S7/S7 edge , which is the best phone out there right now.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Killua96:
G5 is way better than g3 and g4, in quite everything but the design (which is quite a subjective thing).

Also, the g4 sold less than g5 in Korea and the g3 was a "success" only thanks to the g2.

Discuss is fine, but at least you have to know something about the devices you are speaking of...

Said that, have a nice day with your S7 ;)
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rosa Elefant:
Really? How can I change its battery?
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Soufiansky:
But we are talking about success worldwide not only in Korea...
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Soufiansky:
I'm not gonna discuss with you because obviously you think i'm a fanboy which is not the case , i have owned LG devices andni love them. Well , have a nice day.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Killua96:
Then my question is, have you anything data to compare the number of g5 sold in the same period as the g4? If yes post it, if not, well, these comments are useless.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rosa Elefant:
See, this basically

makes you

a fanboy: You claim that your device is the best one, I ask for a feature which my device is capable of, you end the discussion.

Point proven.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Soufiansky:
You dont get my point , i'm just saying what every review , website , youtube channel , news , tech reviewers are saying. This year , almost every tech website agrees that the S7 edge is the best smartphone "right now" , and you are wrong sir , the S7 edge is not my device , see ?
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rosa Elefant:
So you're basically judging a device which you haven't even tried? Well done and totally un-fanboyish.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Soufiansky:
I found stats but only in the USA , LG has sold 1M G4 in the first 3 months , 1.6M for the G5 , but still no worldwide stats :)
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Soufiansky:
No , actually i tried it and even had it on my hands , performance wise i cant really tell , yes its super fast and snappy , no lag at all while i was trying it , the design was horrible "in my opinion" , previous LG phones were way better , screen is a bit dim , camera is great based on the few shots i took with it.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Killua96:
Well that's it! G5 sold more than G4.

But let me say one thing, it's difficult to find people like you that try to discuss, find real data and accept others post, good for you and good for me.

Then have a nice day friend, for last, there is no absolute best device, so discussing about it is useless ;)
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Soufiansky:
Actually i found some even more interesting stuff , the g5 was sold at 1.6M units in 1 month only , while the G4 was sold 1M units in 3 months , so yeah i was wrong.

Of course , we have always to discuss and talk to each other to express our opinion and help everyone , but being here on an LG thread talking about a samsung phone , i was afraid of people judging me thinking i'm a fanboy which is not the case at all. I owned LG phones and they are great , if i was a fanboy i wouldnt have created this thread in first place lol ?

Kind of bummed that the Sprint G5 wont be getting root in the near future. I love the device though.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] cridus:
I need to ask: does the H850 have hardware gps issues? the icon often turns grey... (especially indoors, which should be normal, but my brother's signal is better with a "worse phone")

I still have to test it properly in the open, though. since I saw that some models had hardware gps issues, I wanted to ask just to be sure.

How good is custom ROM support with LG? With Samsung, people always have to reverse engineer drivers and **** if they want to run something like CyanogenMod. How is this with LG?
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Killua96:
The same, just look in the CM13 thread, there is a post of the dev where he explain why there is no build at the moment.

But here there are no problem with the CPU and gpu, like on Samsung with exynos, troublesome are the double camera setup (which is already a problem on the v10), the modules and other things
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] ~~Tito~~:
I purchased a 6P just so I could have root... I like the G5 and I will keep it as my main device, but I have a strong feeling that even though it will get updated and maintained by LG its hit/miss quality, and the short battery life has been its undoing.

Over all I love this device. Nougat really improved from marshmallow by adding features such as adoptable storage and changing dpi. I also like the theme engine although poor options of themes
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Soufiansky:
I was going to buy this device but unfortunately i saw people having some very average battery life...
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nick216ohio:
Nogut for lg g5 phone has pretty good battery. Especially if you root. Without root Heavy useage get 4-6 hours. Mid usage throughout day 6-8 hours. With root all those numbers slightly bumped up by hour or so.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Soufiansky:
I see, too late now i already bought a phone, i made a quick decision maybe but no big deal, i'm pretty happy right now with my current device :)
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] sal82:
at least we can buy and swap batteries any time we want...
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nick216ohio:
Yeah that is a big factor for sure! Battery on most phones last me 6 months, heavy user. Download, root, flash roms, gaming, hotspot, etc. I keep each phone for about 2 years before I upgrade.

I notice most average users last about a year battery wise. $500-800 phone yeah keeping it for a while.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Soufiansky:
For me battery lasts for a year, or almost ( between 10-14months), heavy user too
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nick216ohio:
Since your a heavy user, curious question. How bad does your battery degrade after 6 months?

Don't try them on newer builds cause some of them will cause conflicts and errors. plus if you face any errors, it would be your doing and ROM devs won't entertain your problems. it's always advisable to use the ROM the way it is made.

Hi Guys,

Is there any way to install TWRP/Custom ROMs, on the H815 TWN variant? I tried today to unlock the bootloader today, but it still says not supported (screenshot attached), let me know if any one has found a way to Bump the kernel like on the old G2/G3 models.

Thanks everyone =D
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tim455:
I have exactly the same issue unfortunately. I'd be happy with ROOT for now.

I hope someone in the community can help us out.

EDIT: root (and downgrade from MM if needed) for TWN: http://xdaforums.com/g4/help/twn-root-question-downgrade-root-t3328465

Sorry but it's not possible now. There's lots of us waiting for Bootloader to be unlocked for TWN model H815... but currently impossible.

Luckily we can still have Lollipop with root.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BobbyHenceMcGee:
And luckily phones like the Nexus 6P or almost any other competitor allows for bootloader unlocking unlike LG.

So if you get pissed off enough, that's an option :)

I have Kodi 15.2 installed on AFTV1. I few months ago I started getting short of storage capacity, so I plugged in a USB stick and moved Kodi to the USB stick using the AFTV interface. I also moved the Kodi data to /storage/extUsb/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files and modified the file /sdcard/xbmc_env.properties accordingly.

I've been using the trick with IkonoTV and Llama to launch Kodi.

This worked without problems until last weekend. On saturday I wasn't able to launch Kodi using Llama. Solution was using FireStarter instead. This worked fine.

Next problem. After launching Kodi it was looking like a fresh installation, this meant that the Kodi data was not being found.

Then I read the entry in aftvnews on "How to partially or entirely move Kodi data to external USB storage" and found out that for OS 5.0.5 I should be using the path /storage/usbdisk/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files, this means I changed extUsb to usbdisk and modified the file /sdcard/xbmc_env.properties accordingly.

This fixed the problem................ for 3 days :mad:

Now I cannot launch Kodi. I just get a black screen and it crashes. I tried renaming the .kodi folder so that a new one is created automatically and maybe I could then copy individual folders in order to find out which one is creating the problems. Surprisingly this worked only once. I tried to do this a second time and it didn't create the .kodi directory automatically anymore. It just keeps crashing. Now I don't know how to continue... any suggestion?

By the way, I tried doing backups of my data with both adbFire and AFTV Utility App but none of them worked. The first one starts but does not finish correctly because I loose the ADB connection after some time (is it because of AFTV screensaver?). The second one tells me "/storage/extUsb/kodi/.kodi does not exist". Any idea on how to get a full backup?

Thank you in advance.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] xavs:
Anyone having similar problems? I was finally able to make the backup of my data so I might try to uninstall and install everything again.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] selinkor:
I have an S5 '900I' which recently stopped booting after I installed a custom cyanogenmod theme.

I flashed CWM with odin but I couldnt boot into recovery after so I tried TWRP, which worked fine.

Im attempting to flash cyanogenmod 13 but it just sits at 'flashing file 1 of 1' indefinitely

So far ive tried,

1) Downloading a different version of cyanogenmod

2) verifying the hash

3) formatting, Dalvick, cache, system prior to the flash

4) unchecking zip file verification

5) making sure system IS mounted prior to the flash

6) moving the cyanogenmod.zip from the SD card to internal storage

7) moving the cyanogenmod.zip from root to subfolder (some people said this worked for them ?)

After attempting each and all of the above I have the exact same issue ?

It gets to 'Patching system file unconditionally' then sits there at ''flashing file 1 of 1' 'forever' i.e 1 hour plus

Is there anything I might be missing ?

Hi all,

my problem is on Acer Z160 (liquid z4) :

First nothing for my help on the official site :(

[IMG="acer.com"]https://framapic.org/bSdExv4hfpCV/SdAN5hV4H4sN.png[/IMG]

Now the situation :

* only original recovery (and screen's boot ;)

*no access for "usb debugging" ; so no access to adb functions from my pc

* and I don't have original rom ... (only this SPFT firmware)

what is the/a solution ?

First I've read (on XDA forum) : "You cannot flash zip files through fastboot. You need to download a twrp image and flash it individually with" so I've tried but it is not possible :

fastboot flash recovery recovery_twrp_by_rw-Z4.img
sending 'recovery' (6070 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.209s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote:
partition 'recovery' not support flash)
finished. total time: 0.224s

Secondly, and after reading in XDA forums , I've tried to update :

a)

./fastboot devices
mt6572v1_phone	fastboot

b) wipe

./fastboot -w

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
This is all a

good

thing, and points to your phone being recoverable.

From what you've posted, its sounds like YES power + vol up works (this function forces a reboot) and power + vol down get you into bootloader. So the phone powers on; the main issue is not booting into Android OS.

To determine the path forward, we'll need more info. Please do fastboot getvar all, and post the output (delete IMEI and serial number before posting).

It crashes because it couldn't find the layout file which is responsible for the font size. Apparently there were some changes in Marshmallow.

I pushed a new version that avoids the crash, but changing the font size is not possible at the moment (only if it's crashing).

I'll work out a solution in the next few days.

No change with the new version, log attached
