Hi sir. Good eve to all, anyways i just humbly asking a little suggestion to any of u here. I am a totally noob by the way. Im new to LG and i am planning to buy this phone within this week. But as of reading in xda only h830 and h850 have a development. A little things bother me in my place i think and i believe only h860 is available(middle east). Now my question is, do i need to buy h860 and expect an improvement or development in this version, or should i find an h850/h30 version and go for that one??

Warm regards to all. Thanks in advance
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] nathanchance:
Thread cleaned. Let me remind everyone this is XDA-Developers, not XDA-PleaseBuildMeCustomFirmware. If you are unhappy with the rate of development, get up and do it yourself as that is the point of the site, not a place to make my phone neat and cool. Some additional reading if you need it: Link 1 and Link 2.

H850 has more bands and is the unlocked global variant(other global variants are not unlocked) and should support the band if one of your country's carriers. Get H850 for official unlock support from LG, for more compatibility with mid east carriers (make sure it has bands u need first!), and so u don't have to rely on a current T-Mobile(h830) customer to sim unlock the device.

Here is the link to a reputable vendor out of the UK that ships worldwide, Clove:

To be honest, i dont know what band's for. Sorry as i mention a while ago totally noob. Im just a regular android user that wants a cm and dont even know whats the purpose and differences of it. But anyways i highly appreciate your effort sir. Thanks a lot if u can give me a link to that band im happy to read it. Once again, thank you so much.

Here is the link for frequency of LG G5

http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_g5-7815.php

The h830 and h850 have almost the same frequency bands. Just that H850 have more 4g frequency bands than h830. and 3g frequency bands for h850 includes 900 instead of 1700 on h830. However, buying the h830 might cost less but to unlock might be a little difficult, in exchange the h850 its supposed to be unlocked by default. Where do you live?

Very well, I have posted 3 screenshots, one with 3g and 4g LTE frequency bands of USA required by each carrier, another with 3g and 4g LTE frequency bands required in the Philippines, and the last one with the frequencies belonging to each model. Now with the link I provided in the previous post (or the picture) you can make the comparison of what you really need and with which one you will get the best possible outcome if you are planning to use the phone in the USA and in the Philippines someday. :good: :cowboy:

Keep in mind that there are CDMA carriers in USA and those carriers will more likely not work with GSM smartphones such as model H850 and H830

Just got mine yesterday, been using for about a day now, happy to answer any questions about the phone! :D

I'm quite the Android enthusiast so I should be able to answer anything but don't expect too much!
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Veliion:
I am getting mine soon! I am still on the LG G2 so this is a huge upgrade for me. Did you get a second battery and a charging cradle with the phone?
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] InflatedTitan:
I preordered mine, got it on the 31st. On April 1st I immediately submitted me and the wife's info for the second battery and cradle, it says submitted and haven't heard anything back yet
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] boksquare:
Erm yes and no :/ I preordered it so I was valid for the promotion and I registered my details on the LG website but it just says submitted. Probably need to wait longer for confirmation from LG but I'm confident I'll get it!

I'm happy for your upgrade! I was originally a HTC fanboy but they do things too slow and their flagships keep disappointing me, so when LG's revolutionary design came out I knew I had to get it. Loving every moment of using this phone it's simply terrific!
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] boksquare:
Same here ! I kept waiting for the website to be opened so I wouldn't be too late for the promotion or anything. Still waiting for news now.
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Veliion:
Does anyone have problems with the paint on the back not looking clean, or problems with the bottom part not being flush?
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] boksquare:
Well for me, I got the Gold color. It seems pretty clean to me, smooth feel, sleek colors. As for flush, I don't really get what you meant by that haha.
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Veliion:
I just got mine! By flush I meant that some people had complaints about the bottom part having a huge gap. Mine is as smooths as can be!
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] boksquare:
Nice congrats ! Which carrier did you get it from and what color did you get? As for the gap thing, nope, felt no gap, just plain smooth and great feel. Even if there's a gap it's understandable considering it is detachable haha. This phone is what I'd describe as perfect <3
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Craleb:
Whatever you do, don't go to the regular LG G5 forum.... There is so much negativity and haters/s7edge fanboys. I'm all for people charing their opinions but damn!

Anyway I got mine today, got the dark aluminum color (forgot the name) from ATT. It feels really nice and the wide angle lens is amazing. I will say I do have a bit of a gap between the bottom and the phone, but its not a deal breaker. I may go to the ATT store and compare to their floor model just to see if I am perhaps being too picky.
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] boksquare:
I know haha, that's why I posted here, other than the fact I'm using an AT&T version. I think the color you got is Titan? Anyways about the camera, I haven't been using a lot of it but I must say it's really quite different and does it's job pretty well. Compared to my old HTC One (M7) it's just planets apart. It takes in light really well too and basically just awesome. Also, I think you don't have to go to AT&T store cause whem the topic was brought up, I paid close attention and found out mine had the gap too! But honestly I'm not really bothered I don't feel it that much anyways. This phone's pros outweigh its con way too much haha.
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Veliion:

[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kohnent2:
Hello, I'm having the same issue with mine. Both front and rear camera show up with really low resolution
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] bolillo:
Im thinking it's the app and how it uses the drivers for the camera, i had a similar issue in whatsapp that the phone didn't focus correctly and the pic was blurry even though the preview before taking pic was fine, i don't use snapchat so i can't say i have the issue or not
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] materialize127:
I have issues with the front and rear cameras in Snapchat. I have also seen someone else with these issues in Snapchat on the lg g5 sub reddit. I don't have any issues with the camera in other apps as of yet. So I'm sure its Snapchat at fault.
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] boksquare:
I can confirm. Using native camera app pictures came out good and clear. Snapchat seems to take a **** with your camera and makes the pictures all grainy and blurry.
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] bolillo:
Well apparently my battery cradle and extra battery arrived today, they sent the shipping info today and when i go check the tracking number it's already at the post office niceee, so officially LG sent me the Accessory Bundle faster than BestBuy, now to wait for the BestBuy bundle to arrive at the store.
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] boksquare:
Does anybody experience slight increase in phone temp (as in while you're holding it you feel heat) when using snapchat or playing some games/cpu/gpu intensive apps ? I feel some heat but I just wanna make sure whether it's normal because of metallic body or defective battery.
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] RojasTKD:
I don't think I need to worry about a "slight increase in phone temp" when "playing some games" or running "cpu/gpu intensive apps".

Unless it getting really warm, it probably normal.
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] boksquare:
Does yours feel warm when charging ? I remember mine doesn't when I first got it but now when I charge it does get kinda warm.
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] RojasTKD:
Just checked after 40 minutes of charging and it's just a little warm to the touch. It's normal to have a 5 to 6 degree rise in two during charging (while bout in use).

Any of you have the LG Smartworld app preinstalled ? I had to download and install it myself
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] RojasTKD:
I also downloaded the app, but it may be possible I uninstalled it while trying to remove/disable as much bloatware as I could (damn you AT&T). I don't think I did, but it's possible.
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] sguerra923:
Just out of curiosity, how are you guys/gals doing without root for the ATT version? Are you guys good so far without root in terms of not having Xposed, cleaning up bloatware, etc? I'm just debating on getting it now or later when/if root comes available for the ATT version. I like the ability to save straight to the memory card and cleaning up bloat
[AT&T LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Dave_L:
No root has forced me into flashaholic recovery. Probably good for me... but I miss the tweak-ability root allows. I tell myself that I will just root when I can but not go wild with custom roms.

Hi there.

first of all i want to introduce myself because this is my first post on this website, i got this website from a friend of mine.

my name is nicky, im from holland and 26 years old.

but since today im in big trouble..

i had my phone rooted, but i wanted to uninstall this.

so i used an app for it, but then it rebooted and it had a bootloop.

first step i tryd to reset it with the recovery tool within the phone.

not works because of an error. E: cant mount (or something)

so i tryd to bring back too stock firmware with odin.

it came back with an error.

NAND write start, FAIL...

next thing i did was to try recovery with samsung programma smart switch.

also fail. (now i have this logo An error has occurred while updating the device software. use the emergency recovery function in the smart switch pc software) while powering my phone.

i dont know what to do anymore, im working on this since 11 clock this morning and im getting a little depressive about this.

Details:

Samsung galaxy s6 edge.

Nederlands, not a provider locked phone.

still can go to download mode, but cant go to recovery.

many thanks.

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattan1999:
If you're still able to get into download mode try rooting your phone, install custom recovery and boot into recovery.

Then flash a custom rom

After that if you want stock again test if Odin works :)
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WerWolv:
[MENTION=7385220]Ticky-Nax[/MENTION]

Odin fails to flash if the firmware isn't the right one for your phone or you've got a bad download.

Look on the backside of your phone. There's some text. Search for something like SM-G925 and another letter behind it. Now visit http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ and insert exactly the modelnumber from your back. Now search for a firmware from the Netherlands and download it. Last of all you need to flash it again with Odin and it should work.

[MENTION=5790628]mattan1999[/MENTION]'s method won't work because you killed your bootloader I guess. This means you really have to reflash a stock firmware with Odin

I hope this helps a bit :)
[Sony Xperia M] zagoor:
Hey everyone, i'm new here, it's my first post, so please be forgiving just in case :)

My goal is to install custom ROM, so first I unlocked bootloader via Flashtool. It worked well.

Then I rooted the phone via KingRoot, it also worked well.

The next step I wanted to do was install the custom recovery (TWRP), so I installed TWRP Manager app and it failed:(

I installed it via Terminal Emulator app following the instructions on the twrp website and it kind of worked, but I can't get into TWRP...

Turning of the phone, holding the volume down button doesn't work. It's just booting the system. How to fix it? Maybe i'm booting to the recovery wrong?

Help me please, thanks in advance. And sorry for my bad english :)
[Sony Xperia M] mankokoma:
Terminal Emulator: "su" then "reboot recovery"

OR power on the device and push Volume Up several times. Usually the LED turns blue and TWRP is booting.
[Sony Xperia M] zagoor:
Both methods failed :/
[Sony Xperia M] mankokoma:
So obviously it did not work? I assume you are on stock rom 4.3 - so I would suggest to do it as explained here:

CM13 Nightlies:

Another Way could be to flash NUI-Kernel. It has built in the TWRP recovery.

But ATTENTION!!!: Both ways won't let you boot the Stock ROM !!!
[Sony Xperia M] zagoor:
Yes, i'm on the stock rom 4.3 by sony. The instructions are saying that I have to boot into recovery which I can't do... I even tried to install recovery by command shell in windows and fastboot, but this screen appeared:

[IMG="fastboot"]https://i.imgsafe.org/75f3b94.jpg[/IMG]
[Sony Xperia M] mankokoma:
Have you tried with Flashtool? They say that after unlocking bootloader the official Sony tools won't work anymore. I'm not sure why nothing works for you. So I do erverything under linux environment and don't know how it works with the Windows tools. E.g. I know the behavior of adb shell looks very different under windows.... Maybe someone else has better ideas....!?!
[Sony Xperia M] adi2500:
I assume you want to flash cm 13.

First, download the rom. Then open the ZIP file and copy the boot.img into a folder. Then fastboot flash boot boot.img

---------- Post added at 07:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:22 PM ----------

Then are you able to enter twrp through pressing vol up while boot (led will turn blue)

Will installing cm13 this way be clean or dirty flash?

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bukujutsu:
Why do you consider it preferable? You can download UFI for free, it seems you can do everything with just a USB cable plugged in once the eMMC is replaced.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bukujutsu:
1.) Something I've noticed is that eMMC programs and repair seem much more common overseas, particularly in third world countries. My speculation for why this is is that due to poverty repairing instead of replacing is much more common, and that due to cheap labor and the composition of jobs that are gone into, where people choose what's in demand and can make a living, due to it being much more important for survival, rather than something like the commonly denigrated "useless/joke majors" (and I agree).

The US in particular by far leads the pack in terms of software developed, it's just unfortunate for us that hardware tools like UFIBox Android Toolbox seem to be so much less common.

2.) I have 2 broken Galaxy S2s from a while ago that I have no use for. One with a shattered screen, one that landed just right to leave the screen instant, but shatter the digitizer First I'm going to try swapping them for some experience, if it doesn't I'll be right back where I started with a non-functiona screen . I'm going to see if I can practice on them using ufibox, maybe even practice swapping the eMMC between them and reballing afterward so I gain some experience.
