I ordered a 1+3to replace my Find7a that has been plagued with Black Screens Of Death

Slow updates are better than no updates at all

It's not a phone but Asus released their 2015 flaship tablet Zenpad 8S on Android 5.0 and is not planning to upgrade it to 6.x or even 5.1.1

No one seems to be interested in making custom roms (maybe for technical reason or lack of interest I don't know), so I'm stuck with 5.0. => No more Asus for me ever

1+3 seems to have great support, so I'm not concerned with upgrades at all
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Shusky:
Even the OPO after 2 years since its release has gotten at least Android 6.0 support with CyanogenOS 13.1. So I am not very concerned about it.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] noobtoob:
The oneplus company is small. Updates will come slowly.

With that said, I have not owned a phone where updates came frequently or even soon, besides a nexus device. All Samsung, HTC, LG, etc... have slow update releases, especially when each carrier has different requirements. One carrier usually gets the job done before the others and so on. With one plus, at least it is released at the same time, regardless of carrier.

If you judge a device by the official updates, then the only choice for you would seem to be a nexus device. I can't speak for every one here, but a lot of us buy the OP3 so we can use buggy releases, customize, and tinker with the device.

As far as dev support for the OP2, I can't answer that. But I can say I bought the OPO when released, and the OP2 just wasn't a big enough of an upgrade for me to switch. This could have been the reason dev support was low also. This device however seems to pack enough guts internally to justify the jump, and the price tag is super appealing.

Hi guys.

Currently have MM pre-rooted firmware installed, with TWRP and SuperSu 2.71.

Using ESFile Explorer Pro, I can gain root access to /, /system, but not /system/odex.app or /odex.priv-app or /odex.framework.

Anyone know why, or a work around for this?

Peace.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SDee96:
I would suggest either trying with another application (like Root Explorer) or SLiMM 1.9 (another MM based ROM, which works fantastically well, if you ask me).

If you have recovery, Try re-flashing SuperSU.zip and see if the root explorer applications work

Strange I can get root access to /system but some folders within it are excluded.

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] zeomal:
Can you give us more information? I do not see how the volume can keep increasing unless that option is present in the ROM you are using.

For approximately the first five seconds, my ringtone volume (the default one - Moto) is ascending. Afterwards, it is constant.

Did you try with a custom ringtone that is not available with the system?

EDIT : Try this app. It seems to be a common issue with Samsung's phones.

hi,

i try understand something.

the zramsize setting is in the fstab.qcom usually. I change the size to 400mb for example, but after reboot the fstab.qcom is reverting back to how it was. Where is that freaking setting that reverts fstab.qcom back ? in build.prob ? where ? i cant find it....

You need to rebuild the boot.img if you want a custom fstab. This is because the fstab is placed in the ramdisk and the ramdisk can not be edited by the system in any way.

Yeah, I know, I'm kind of late, but I found myself needing one.

Surely, it would be super awesome if there were any unused ones, but as long as it is in a decent shape, used one would suffice.

Hey I'm sort of new to all this so forgive if this is a dumb question. I just got a galaxy s7 last week. Couple days ago I installed Nova launcher then I applied a theme from the theme store. Then less than a day later phone froze while I was opening an email. No resets (hard or soft) could bring it back to life. They are going to give me a new one but I'm wondering could it have been the Nova + Theme combo was too much? I thought these phones could handle pretty much anything thrown at them though so it seems odd this would be the cause of the issue. Thanks in advance for any help.

The one on the S6 Edge was super powerful. I could bounce it off the wall and turn off the TV on the other side of the room 20 feet away!

And speaking of IR if you point the camera on the 10 at something reflective you will see the IR laser autofocus assist illuminating. It will be in your pictures too! That's kind of disappointing. I have yet to take pictures of some hot metal pipes but I suspect they will have that ominous purple glow telltale sign of lack of IR filter!

[Verizon LG G3] mn1968:
Hi,

I currently have a Samsung Galaxy S4 i545 (Verizon) that has the locked bootloader, and therefore has limited ROMs available. I am considering picking up a used LG G3 and would like to know if there are any "gotchas" to be aware of? Has Verizon & AT&T locked the bootloaders to the G3 as well, or is root and custom recovery a go for all versions?

Appreciate your feedback!
[Verizon LG G3] Droid_JD:
Short answer: You can root and "Bump" the boot-loader;

Longer answer (obviously there is a MUCH longer and complete answer, but this should get you started): Depending on who you talk to, the Boot-loader is quasi/unlocked. You may need to restore an older firmware in order to root and Bump though. I am still not 100% clear on the specifics, but I believe there was a work-around for the boot-loader to get a custom recovery installed - this is the Bump. From there, all kernel's and Rom's need to be "Bumped" in order to flash. Every kernel/ROM I've seen on XDA is already Bumped, so you shouldn't have any issues flashing anything.

Hope that makes sense. For more info on which firmware will allow you to do what, http://xdaforums.com/verizon-lg-g3/general/verizon-lg-g3-one-toolkit-vs985-root-t3124846
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
In order to be able to install and get into TWRP or any custom recovery, you have to use the 12B (KitKat) bootloader or below (10C KitKat, 11C KitKat). It's easiest to root on 10B with the Stump app. You can downgrade from every official stock version, although from 35B and higher, the only way to downgrade is to flash the 10B TOT file from Windows using the .DLL that's extracted from the 35B KDZ (even if you're downgrading from 46A or 47A).

Rooting gets more complicated after 10B, and putting TWRP on gets more complicated after 12B.
[Verizon LG G3] mn1968:
Thanks guys! Since I'd be buying used it would be a crap-shoot which boot-loader I get...but it still seems more promising than my current S4.

I'm in no hurry but I'll start looking for a deal.
[Verizon LG G3] hyperxguy:
Just got a refub.ed G3 VS985 off ebay for $109 last week (saw a $99 deal a few days ago). It came with 35B version ... easy to downgraded back to 10B, then rooted (stump apk) , then added TWRP 3.0.0.0 (TWRP apk), then flashed 35B bootstack + stock47A.

Had quite a bit of issues (going back to 10B) due to a corrupted TOT file causing "Failed Previous Load" for LGFlashTool.
[Verizon LG G3] mn1968:
@ hyperxguy - So despite your troubles everything worked out OK? Have you flashed any ROMs yet? I'm a bit eager to jump in sooner than later at thought of being able to use different ROMs.
[Verizon LG G3] hyperxguy:
It took me awhile to realize the corrupted TOT file was causing the downgrade problem ... otherwise, the process was painless. I'm having no issue with the stock-rooted47A. Will start playing with other ROMs soon.

This G3 is about the same as my old G2, regarding root & ROMs. So I'm feeling pretty comfortable.

Note: I've been using the G4 for the last year ... but it has no root solution ... so I'm getting the G3 just to have some fun (kinda miss my old G2).
[Verizon LG G3] griz.droidx:
Hey fellows, I too am thinking of getting a G3 to replace my S3 that died a while back. I'm using an old moto x2 now. After posting in another thread elsewhere and describing what I'm looking for in a New(used) phone, someone recommended the G3 and after some reading I see that it fits the bill perfectly. (Ext SD, Replaceable battery, 5" or larger display) I had been thinking about a new moto or a note but root and ext sd are a must. I also need a phone with decent reception. My S3 was terrible compared to my old Droid X and X2, and since signal at home is hit or miss (95db/m on my dx2 now) I want a phone that pulls in signal well.

What do those of you who own this phone think about signal / reception compared to other devices?

I think I can get any Verizon version downgraded to install root and TWRP correct?

Without me reading through all the custom rom posts, do all features of the phone work as good or better on a custom rom as on a stock rom? What I'm mean here is for example, on my DX, DX2, and S3, some features do not work on custom roms due to the closed source of the original software / drivers I believe. On the DX and X2 for example the HDMI out port won't work on AOSP roms because the driver isn't available. Performance suffers on AOSP roms on the X2 past GB because of the closed nature of the Nvidia Tegra 2 drivers I think. I think I'm explaining this correctly.

I'm pretty sure that's everything I can find out how to do everything once I acquire the device. The link in the first reply above is most helpful.

Would anyone recommend any other device for the price range between 100-200 US dollars? Again, I've been considering a note, nexus 6 (because I know I'll have beaucoup kernels and roms to choose from)
[Verizon LG G3] Droid_JD:
If you're still thinking of getting a G3, I was looking at Ebay last night and noticed they are selling refurbished G3's for $100.00 - I think with free shipping.
