[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] someguyatx:
Not quite Metfanant the MotoX 2013 got updated quickly but the Droid Maxx/Ultra always lagged way behind.

In the case of the Turbo all of the other major 2014 flagships on Verizon such as G3, Galaxy S5, One M8 have seen updates to Android M. These are also all older devices than Turbo which makes it even worse. The reality is that the overall user experience will be very similar to what we have now but we at least deserve the bug fixes and security patches with the latest OS.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Metfanant:
No sir...

The Moto X update to Kit Kat was pushed out starting Nov 19th according to this article...and it was the FIRST to get it...

http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2013...ryone-by-updating-its-moto-x-to-kitkat-first/

Just a month later the update had finished soak testing and was starting to get pushed to the Droid line...

http://www.droid-life.com/2013/12/1...-4-kit-kat-update-starting-today/#more-127805

I wouldn't call that lagging way behind at all...it was still quicker than most phones...

As I've always said...VZW sucks, but they had no problem getting updates out to Moto devices when Google ran the show...so I blame Lenovo...
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] monza1412:
Droid Maxx2 update is rolling out. I guess (hope&prey) we are next in line..
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] someguyatx:
Yeah I saw that too, the Maxx 2 came out in Oct and I think this is its first update. I used one briefly but it had screen issues so ended up returning it for another turbo.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Turbofyed:
Just filled out a droid turbo soak test survey let's hope this is a good sign of things to come
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] pgzerwer:
I also received an invitation for this.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JTH182:
I thought I signed up for these, but have never gotten one. I really hope this means we get Marshmallow soon!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Einsteindks:
I guess they didn't like my feedback from the last soak. I haven't gotten anything.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] TheSt33v:
I imagine that the process of assignment is randomized. They want to get feedback from the "average" end user, so it doesn't make sense from a process standpoint to select the same people over and over again.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Einsteindks:
It was the third soak in a row, over two phones. I revealed the soak was installed on a rooted phone perfectly, and that it was not shared.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] TheSt33v:
Interesting. Either you're just really lucky, Motorola is lazy, people are lying about getting soak test invites/surveys, or I'm totally wrong about what Motorola hopes to accomplish with soak tests.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Einsteindks:
Naw, probably because I played stoopid and feigned upgrade on a stock, unrooted device...except for the last time.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bartbarian5343:
I'm sorry if this is reposted. I just bought a used Note 3 and noticed that my Auto Rotation does not work. I went in to the "*#0*#" menu and did all the individual sensor tests and the sensor hub test. The result of ALL was "FAIL". I have also done a reset and hard reset by taking my SIM and battery out. A Factory reset was also done. Could someone with a Note 3 please help me? I really prefer not hear about what you did on your S3, S4 etc...NOTE 3 users ONLY please and thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mcjordan92:
Hi, I have just bought my new S7 and setup my fingerprint on it.

I didn't have fingerprint on my old phone so I can't compare it but I find it really inaccurate..

It gives me alot of wrongs if I am not landing my finger perfectly centered and sometimes even when it is, its still wrong..

I have tried to reassign fingerprints which does improve it for that couple of minutes but later on when I grab my phone and try to unlock it I get so many wrongs..

Is it just me? or any one else find it frustrating?

Any tips to improve it?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] cadcamaro:
Mine never has issues, if your hands are clean and not prone to being sweaty then I would exchange it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Sheryl John:
Unlike naturally how we expect it to work or how the other sensors like iPhone's, Nexus 6p's etc. works, with Galaxy S7 you should be careful when registering the fingerprint because of the relatively small surface area of the sensor. To make it clear, you can cover almost the whole finger print (considering the relatively large rounded shape of the sensor) in various other devices. While in the case of S7 you should only register the fingerprint in the way your finger will naturally positioned when unlocking. In my case considering the thumb, only an edge of the thumb will only get in contact with the sensor not the the center part or the other areas of the print. So just register the print in the way you normally hold and unlock the phone not keeping in a flat area and registering. If this works there is nothing wrong with the sensor. Otherwise you gonna need to replace the unit.

PS: Correct me if I'm wrong [MENTION=5309904]cadcamaro[/MENTION] ;-P
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] El Maestro:
try registering same finger 2 or 3 times, this helps a lot increasing the accuracy of the scanner.

tip and sides of the finger is very important when registering
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] cadcamaro:
I personally set up my thumb when my phone is in my hand already, I also make sure that I move my thumb around and read as much of it as possible.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mcjordan92:
Thanks for all of your tips!!

I don't think my sensor is defected, it works after all..

I'll try the trick for registering only the tip of the thumb which indeed is what usually presses the button.. in fact I did register that part but not only that..

And about the register more than one time the same finger, does this thing actually recommended?

I mean its kinda ruin the machine learning of that thing.. it gets 2 different fingers that looks alike isn't it?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] GZA1337:
For me, using the thumb only works if I use/register the center of the thumb. The tip never works, but I can live with that. Center always works
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Huey85:
works perfectly for me. in comparison to my S6's finger print sensor, this one is 10x better - faster to recognize and unlock and much more accurate.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Appogee:
Just picked up my S7 Edge yesterday and retired ye old daily of the Oneplus One! The build and glass feels amazing.

I was looking for a true bumper to allow me to feel the back glass.

I put cases in the brackets because I don't really mean cases as I'm seeing when I search up bumpers.

I was looking around the forum, yes I used the search function, but I'm not really seeing many options for actual bumpers. Ones that don't have a back tpu or whatever clear piece.

I saw a cheapo metal noname company bumper off Aliexpress and Ebay but no others, any suggestions guys?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] meyerweb:
No one seems to be making just a bumper. There's a post on here someone where someone contacted a company that makes one for the S7, and they said they couldn't figure out how to make one that would work the the edge.

Your phone is s-off, so you DON'T need to lock your bootloader to run a RUU

dey tuuk ur juurbs
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gk ganesh:
but in the guide from OMJ he says to lock the bootloader i am unable to do that

also when i run a RUU phone reboots and it enters to recovery and its nots detected in the RUU and program exits :crying:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donkeykong1:
That guide is probably for s-on devices. As I said - s-off doesn't need locked bootloader for RUU to run. Did you reboot your phone in RUU mode before flashing RUU? You need to run "fastboot oem rebooutRUU" command before running it

dey tuuk ur juurbs
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
Normally with a ruu.exe you don't need to manually reboot in ruu mode, it can be launched either from a booted OS, from bootloader or from RUU mode. I guess the hboot 1.44 and possibly windows 8 or 10 is causing the issue here ;)

dey tuuk ur juurbs
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
Unfortunately, the fastboot / windows 8 or 10 issue would have resulted in a "waiting for device" error (fastboot not seing the phone), Looks like fastboot is seeing the phone correctly but some commands are not working, like "fastboot oem lock" didn't worked (even if it was not required to relock) and "flastboot oem rebootRUU" neither. It might be a defective emmc, in many cases (like this one), the first signs of a bad emmc is the impossibility to unlock or lock the bootloader and to reboot in ruu mode. In some cases it can be confirmed with a "fastboot oem dmesg" and "fastboot oem last_dmesg". Any error containing "SD_HW_ERR", "SD WRITE FAIL" or "SD READ FAIL" are good signs of a bad emmc.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
PM:

As said earlier in this thread, bootloader status (locked/unlocked/re-locked) does not matters for flashing a RUU when the phone is S-OFF. It looks like your phone suffers an hardware issue or maybe a corrupt bootloader. If you are unable to get a black screen with silver HTC logo after doing "fastboot oem rebootRUU" you'll not be able to flash a RUU.

You had twrp 2.7.1.1 installed on your phone, why not trying to flash a custom rom?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Toyeboy:
I'm considering getting a new phone and was really hoping the huge performance increase in CPU has helped PPSSPP. I have a SD 810 phone and it's basically unplayable because it throttles down. I specifically would like to know how midnight club 3 dub edition runs, daxter, gran turismo. I've searched the web for a good emulation review of S7 but can't find one.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Derpling:
I play a LOT of PPSSPP therefore i believe i can give u the answer you looking, but PPSSPP does NOT work on GS7 atm, there is a workaround though.

It will crash many times, but eventually it will work, it might take 10 tried 20 or even 2, as far as performance it's a disaster, all GS7 and sammy devices with 6.0.1 suffer from performance bug related to games, S7 too.

However if u rooted u can set governor to performance and unleash the full might of the phone, then it runs perfect(Tekken 6 in my case).
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Toyeboy:
Oh wow okay just bad software then right now? Does tekken run full speed?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Derpling:
yes tekken ran on 60fps on note 5, but it much better on S7 though it lags from time to time, but that due some ppsspp updates, it supports vulkan so it might get better.

Another thing you might wanna try if u rooted, is disabling DVFS, that thing throttles the phone very fast, but if u disable it, ui performance will be bad.

2. Boot into TWRP

3. Wipe/Factory reset

6. Boot device

Any help would be appreciated, thank you. :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mike.bradshaw:
Hi,

I have a TyTN/Hermes that had reasonable good battery life unless it was connected to a HSPDA network and then it lasted around half a day.

The Kaiser (which is only a week old) has a pretty poor battery life, even though there is nothing running.

It was fully charged, I am connected to a 3G network with a steady 3 bar signal and have just made 2 calls lasting around 28 mins in total. The battery is showing 72% left. Bluetooth was on for both calls.

Based on the Hermes, and both phones having the same 400GHz processor, I don't think this is normal, can anyone explain?

Thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jomo25:
Why don't you do a search on battery on this forum before starting yet another Kaiser battery life thread? THere are at least 2 others with posts in the last day with people providing tips and experiences with the Kaiser battery.

[G4 Accessories] irishlad99:
Hi guys, recently bought from ebay the "kwmobile TOUCH SCREEN PROTECTOR TEMPERED GLASS FOR LG G4 ANTI-GLARE FOIL FILM" matte finish tempered glass screen protector(says foil film in title but i can confirm it is glass), was really hard to find so thought I'd share in case anyone else looking for the same. It was shipped free from Berlin and reached me in Ireland in 2 days. So far seems really good and is holding up nicely, application was easy. :)

UPDATE: Exact link to one I bought is - http://m.ebay.ie/itm/kwmobile-TOUCH...-FOR-LG-G4-ANTI-GLARE-FOIL-FILM-/400936064288 - if this is out of stock please search "kwmobile TOUCH SCREEN PROTECTOR TEMPERED GLASS FOR LG G4 ANTI-GLARE FOIL FILM" exactly on Ebay as I know there are multiple listings for the same product from the same seller - I bought from mobilepartner-berlin. Cheapest currently in stock link is - http://m.ebay.com.sg/itm/281719629460?_mwBanner=1#shpCntId
[G4 Accessories] mahdibassam:
Would be interested, how is it? can you share the link pls.
[G4 Accessories] irishlad99:
I would share link but i do not have enough posts to do so at the moment :( but if you search "kwmobile TOUCH SCREEN PROTECTOR TEMPERED GLASS FOR LG G4 ANTI-GLARE FOIL FILM" exactly on ebay the cheapest listing is the one i bought, it was sold by mobilepartner-berlin. So far the screen protector is holding up really nicely, i tried scratching some metal bracelets against it but no damage done. As for looks and usability it's all very nice, looks great and I'm really happy with the benefit of no reflection. It feels great and touchscreen responsiveness is also not affected which is always good. One other major benefit I have seen is that the screen no longer is a fingerprint magnet, at all - for me that alone was worth the purchase. :)
[G4 Accessories] mahdibassam:
Would you be able to post a few photos?
[G4 Accessories] mahdibassam:

Thanks for letting us all know! :good:
[G4 Accessories] sharpehenry:
im guessing it dims the phone screen a little. how is it out in the sun?
[G4 Accessories] br0adband:
Thinking about getting one of these, supposed to be picking up a G4 tonight (crossing my fingers that the seller comes through). Has anyone been able to find these on Amazon because I did a search with the noted keywords and while I find a lot of stuff from kwmobile there's nothing listed for the G4 in terms of a matte tempered glass screen protector. As someone that has been using Moshi AG iVisor protectors for a long long time they are what I want but they never made one for the G4, they did make a glossy tempered glass one but I can't stand that shiny crap. ;)

The pics from the OP look absolutely fantastic and I really want to consider one of these but I just can't find it on Amazon in the US, maybe I'll check other countries and see if anything shows up.

irishlad99:

If you still have any more info like a specific model or part number of that screen protector that might help me track one down as well, if you can post the info that would be awesome, thanks.
[G4 Accessories] tcchuin:
wow i looked hard for matte glass and couln't find. thanks!

http://www.ebay.com.sg/itm/kwmobile...sh=item4197cc6694:g:sJUAAOSwPc9Wv43U#shpCntId
[G4 Accessories] irishlad99:
It's actually really good out in the sun! Visibility is much improved thanks to the elimination of glare, I'll take some pics next time the sun comes out here :) (Rare occasion in Ireland)

As for dimming of the phones screen - I personally haven't found it to cause any problems and I still find it comfortable to use with auto brightness on, as long as the light is not fallimg on the phone at extreme angles like in some of my photos the screen is always perfectly visible indoors and outdoors, and if you find light falling at an extreme angle I've found tilting the phone a degree or two in another direction or shifting around a bit solves any issues. - hope that helps!
[G4 Accessories] irishlad99:
Thanks, I bought this one from Ebay, exact link is http://m.ebay.ie/itm/kwmobile-TOUCH...-FOR-LG-G4-ANTI-GLARE-FOIL-FILM-/400936064288 - although if you want to buy from Amazon I remember seeing that skinomi do a MatteSkin for the LG G4 - you could try searching "Skinomi MatteSkin LG G4" on Amazon. While skinomi is not tempered glass their skins are made of a very tough soft materials, I wouldve bought one myself but it's a lot more expensive (24.95 in dollars I believe) - More information on how to order + links have been added to original post :)
[G4 Accessories] br0adband:
Thanks for that info, I added it to my eBay wish list hoping they might get some in stock again soon. I can't stand glossy screen protectors and tempered glass traditionally has always been really shiny and reflective. After I used a Moshi AG iVisor years ago honestly never wanted anything else ever again but they only make those for very specific phones unfortunately.

This is the first time I've ever seen an actual tempered glass screen protector that has a matte finish to it so I definitely want one, let's hope I get lucky (and so to other people that might want one). ;)
[G4 Accessories] irishlad99:
Yeah I couldn't take the glossy finish anymore so I had to go hunting for this - this listing of the same product from same seller is currently in stock http://m.ebay.com.sg/itm/281719629460?_mwBanner=1#shpCntId - maybe that could work for you? :)
[G4 Accessories] br0adband:
I'm sure it would but they don't ship to the US it seems. I'm sure I'll find one sooner or later, thanks for looking around.
[G4 Accessories] ezzony:
Have to say I don't like this matte tempered protector at all. I can hardly see the screen when out in sunlight whereas with my older glossy one which I had to replace I could see the screen adequately even while wearing sunglasses ! Also it has an effect of diminishing the colors and you loose the deep blacks that the G4 offers. Really can't recommend this shield at all.
[G4 Accessories] br0adband:
ezzony:

Did you actually find one of the tempered glass matte protectors someplace - that's what this thread is about, not the more easy to find matte plastic ones which is what I myself use. The OP found an actual tempered glass screen protector with the matte finish and I myself have tried to find the same thing but I've never had any success. What I use is from a company called SuperShieldz and it's an anti-glare anti-fingerprint matte screen protector (get a 6 pack for like $5 on Amazon).

If you've found a true tempered glass matte screen protector could you tell me where you found it/purchased it from?

Thanks...
[G4 Accessories] AZstyle:
looks great, thx for sharing
[G4 Accessories] KingFatty:
Just ordered one. I prefer matte TVs and monitors (currently my main display is matte, and one of my two side displays is also matte), so I'm excited at making the LG G4 into a matte display too!

Note that the slightly convex curved screen of the LG G4 makes reflections appear a bit worse compared to a completely flat screen, so I think the LG G4 can particularly benefit from a matte screen.
[G4 Accessories] sphilipo:
Because it's exactly ( and exactly is by micro millimeter :) the size of the screen, it's very difficult to place it accurately and avoid bubbles on the sides

But overall I am satisfied - good quality and see clear
[G4 Accessories] DubbaThony:
I bought one and I didnt get so much luck as you, guys. My came weird.

it donsent fit perfectly the screen, its a tiny bit too big, I mean I can place it perfectly on one side and on other side it will create bubbles and be visibly tiny bit too long.

the anti-glare surface works perfectly in sun though. I can confirm its glass, (tried to cut off tiny bit to make it fit on phone, I know Im going to preety much trash that glass so didnt care) it cracks like glas and is hard as glass.

texture of phone is very nice, like paper, preety soft on touch.

also using it felt like my resolution went to something around 400p. reading 14px sized font is close to impossible.

I used matte foil before on my former phone (sony z2) and I didnt had such issue.
