When I upgraded to 3.2.1, I had the same issues as stated above AS WELL AS an issue with VoLTE that forced me to disable LTE in order to have a decent phone call. I reverted back 3.1.2 until OnePlus gets these issues ironed out. Overall, 3.1.2 has been much better for me.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robles4242:
Well i LOVE my LG G2 (Verizon), but my LCD just crapped out and I figure Id just upgrade to a new phone, I use straight talk so I can Use almost any variant, I just went with Verizon cuz service was better around here and It came pre unlocked. Im considering a G3 or really want the G4, I cant afford a G5 Id like it under $200, what would you do? Switch to a G3, or skip the 3 and Goto G4, or is their something better then LG in that price range?? Its gotta be rootable (what isnt these days) i love the IR sensor, I love everything about my G2 so i want to match as many features and specs as I can, Also a Removeable battery and SD card slot are always nice..

Whats everyones opinions? I need to buy ASAP. I hate flipping my G2 like a ninja with a sword just to navigate normal everyday use.

Thanks guys, looking forward to ALL opinions. Im open for any ideas.

I switched from LG G2 to Nexus 5X, which is very close to a G4 under hood.

I don't regret it. A very good phone for under 300$ and always up to date. Google promised updates the next two years. So that the 5X will get the follower of N next year. The daily usage performance is significantly better than the G2.

The LG smartphones are becoming increasingly developer unfriendly. For example, the LG G4 AT&T and US991 version still have locked bootloaders. I switched to Nexus 5X, and it seems fine. It's a great value right now because US-based vendors are selling the 5X with 32GB for under 250USD on ebay. I guess it's part of the clearance for the next generation model. The deals on the unlocked Motorola X Pure and the new Moto G4 are also looking good. In general, I don't think I'll ever want to buy a carrier-locked, carrier-branded smartphone again. It's just not worth the trouble.

PS: the old LG G2 also continues running strong..

I myself am patiently waiting on the ZTE Axon 7.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robles4242:
Thanks for your promp replys. I see the Nexus 5X is a hit, I have looked at that one. Why dont they like putting SD card slots on phones anymore?? I dont understand why tey are abandoning that simple luxury. What are some other runner ups with these devices? Are any of the Motorola Droids that good? I want to have the same if not better RAM, and Processors as my G2. I fairly bigger screen would be nice. They pop out so many different models of phones a year its hard to keep track of them anymore!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laofan:
T-Mobile unlocked G4 on eBay is always around $180 for new other or refurbished condition.

Hardware wise, G4 is way better than 5X.

Personally I would said g4 or moto x pure are better choice.

N5X has very good software development. But the lower ram, the lousy camera, 1080p display, lack of SD card, plastic construction, poor sound output make it a meh phone.

It is the most dispointng Nexus phone ever...
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robles4242:
I know their is a difference between my G2 (VS980 Variant) and and all the others, like the cases have to be special. Verizon hides the hidden service menu and, its like the GSM versions AT&T+T-Mobile, and even Sprint's LS980, are all different then the Verizon VS980 ....If i were to get G4, what variant would you sugget? Is Verizon different on it too? I use a Verizon SIM from straight talk but I would consider switching to AT&T because even without getting throttled I hear the Verizon caps HIGH SPEED as well..... Would CDMA Verizon sim work on a AT&T variant G4?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Akopps:
Isn't the answer very obvious? The entire industry, the Googles, the Apples, the Verizons, and the Hollywoods of the world don't want you to have much local storage so that you just pay more for bandwidth and for cloud storage. They want you to store all backups on the cloud. They want you to save and the access all your pictures and videos from the cloud. Besides, having less storage means it's gonna be less likely that you will get the movies and TV shows off bittorrent in order to watch it on your phone or tablet. Having said that, 32GB of storage is fine for my needs on a smartphone. Maybe somewhat tight, but still fine. Although I do see the appeal of more storage. I have a 40GB of music in compressed format, and it would certainly be nice to have it all on my phone.

There are good deals on the 2015 Motorola X Pure, which is the same generation device as Nexus 5X, but with more RAM, bigger screen, and storage card slot. There are good sales on those. Even brick and mortar stores are selling them for under 300USD right now. On the con side, I read in a few reviews that Moto X Pure has below average screen brightness and poor battery life. The other day I saw a Moto X Pure side by side with Moto G, and the Moto X Pure had noticeably dimmer screen. I even set its brightness to the max, and it still looked dimmer than Moto G (2015). The screen looked good for indoor use, but poor for outdoors. And so I thought I'd rather have better screen and battery life and went for the 5X.

Also, interesting deals can be had on the Oneplus smartphones. The original Oneplus One smartphone is still a great smartphone is still sells new for 250USD for the 64GB version. It is based on the proven Snapdragon 801 SoC and has very good battery life. I recommended Oneplus One to everyone I know, and by today's standards it's still pretty much a perfect smartphone. The latest Oneplus 3 is also a great value, even at 400USD, but both don't have a storage card slot. The Oneplus 3 uses the Snapdragon 820 SoC (also used in LG G5) which is massively faster than the SD800-810 used in LG G2 through G4 (as well as any Nexus smartphone up to this date).

The new Moto G are also fine budget phones and have great features, but it's ridiculous that they have SoC that by most measures is still slower than the Snapdragon 800/801 we got in LG G2 and G3 years ago. The entry level Snapdragon SoCs are still kinda poor. I am wondering when Snapdragon creates a budget SoC based on the 820 family.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vklexer:
Why not just upgrade to Oneplus 3?

At least here in Europe (Lithuania)

5x - 250 euro

G4 - 360 euro

Moto Style - 380 euro

Oneplus 3 - 400 euro.

I think it's the current wisest choise to upgrade from LG G2.

I'm still hanging on my G2, just because I don't want to sell it for pennies..
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laofan:
U. S. Prices of these phones are different than Euro , especially when one could find good deals on eBay.

For example, like new G4 is $180 , while 5x is $200 or more...

I assume you are using straight talk. Straight talk uses both Verizon tower or AT&T tower. You need to call straight talk to find out if your local area is using Verizon or AT&T tower.

For straight talk, I believe Verizon sim won't work on a AT&T/tmobile G4. But a AT&T sim would work on both Verizon g4 or AT&T/Tmobile g4.

So you need to ask your carrier, straight talk, to decide which version of g4 you want to buy.

And if rom development is important to you, you would also want to check the G4 forum to see which variant of g4 has unlocked bootloader.

Some early patches of G4 suffers bootloop. If you decide on buying g4, make sure they are manufactured in late 2015 or later.

The G2 will be my last Android device for a while, im done with the way OEMs update software. Apple, here I go
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robles4242:
I could never switch to the dark side of Apple. I have an iphone 4 i got given to me, and ive never even turned it on yet. Its in the drawer with an LG volt, Galaxy Tab 4, Nokia Lumia Windows 8.1 , UMX, Visual Land Prestige Elite 8 tablet, Galaxy S3, ZTE Reef, Kindle Fire HD 7, some more random devices, and soon to be a LG G2. But I will buy a new digitizer and fix the G2.....

I really dont have the $300+ at the moment to throw on a new phone, the wife wants an LG Stylo of sorts for her Virgin Mobile service, and its her birthday in oh crap 3 days haha So I have to really get on it here. I dont want to get a G3 even tho they are so cheap, But only used G4's are under $200.... Ive looked at so many phones this week its crazy. I just cant pull the trigger, I keep doing a loop. I get pulled tword he G4, then look at the prices, and see everyones Bootloops, and Screen problems, and i get leary, So i check out the phones mentioned, and I like them, then the price pushes me back the G4 and it repeats all over again...

Im gonna have to fork out the cash or settle for something less... Its such a heard decision....
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eminemiero:
What about nexus 6p? is it expensive where you live?

I wouldn't buy the G3, its a freaking G2 with QHD. And I've never had a G4 in my hands, but I just wouldn't buy another LG phone. I feel like the G2 was the best phone by them, after that, they are just creating crap.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robles4242:
I will use the internet to buy the device, All of my considerations are close to $300, the Moto X Prime, Nexus 6P, Oneplus 3, ect... I guess ill have to fork out the extra or lower my expectations. I hate to spend that much on a phone without any type of insurance, and I dont want a piece of junk either.... I have such hard times making decisions like this. I turn it into such a big deal for some reason. ha

Does BLU make a phone with these good of specs? Ive seen their name quite a bit lately.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SofaSpud:
I've been using G2's for about 2 yrs now; 1st a VS980 (vzw), then T-mobile D801, now on AT&T since I moved. Both rooted + TWRP.

Before researching too much,I picked up a G4 factory refurbished AT&T, in like new condition, which I am planning to sell. Want external memory. Replaceable battery is a plus. After getting it, I find out that the bootloader is locked down hard. Rootable by flashing back to lollipop or earlier, but no real hope for TWRP. Would love it if it were easier to 0wn (root/unlock BL), as it seems to be a great device, with good battery life, which would probably jjust get better with a custom ROM & kernel.

There only seem to be about two G4 variants that can be bootloader unlocked, t-mo H811 and international H815. Maybe one or two others? F500, H810PR?

So I'm going with a G3 VS985, (vzw) to try out Total Wireless (uses vzw infrastructure) as carrier, since AT&T data signal is marginal in my area. The nice thing about the LG vzw G series variants are that they can serve as CDMA or GSM.

Buying from swappa.com seems to be a little better bet than eBay for guarantee against buying someone else's problem, as has happened to me once or twice in the past.

Jury is still out on it, as I am still waiting for the G3.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kutusov:
From what I've seen one could expect almost half the battery life from a G2. Some people claim stand-by and SOT that I never ever got from any smartphone. What sort of times are you getting?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SofaSpud:
I was referring to the G4 there, which is newly refurbished with new battery, I believe. However, my G2's have always been pretty good as well, although I am starting to notice that the battery charge life is starting to fall off, which is not surprising since I've been using it for about a year and a half now, and I bought it as a refurb.

Have always run Cloudy G3 (ported for G2) which AFAIK has a custom kernel (Cloudy kernel) which I believe has helped out. Never really had any trouble getting through the entire day, but don't run the screen with more brightness than needed. SOT has always been good, usually at least 4hrs. If I know that I'm going to push it more than that I bring along a portable battery charger. There are some good ones sold on eBay of 10,000+ mah which priced around $15.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kutusov:
My G2 drains about 1% per per minute with the screen on, so now is basically like a tinny laptop, have to carry the charger around with me all the time. CM13 and Cloudy didn't help at all, it's just gone.

Still on the G4, I'm just coming from the G4 subforum... major issues with that phone, aparently a lot of them have a faulty motherboard and there is a huge possibility the phone will die in less than a year. http://www.androidauthority.com/lg-admits-g4-bootloop-problem-hardware-fault-669603/

I'm currently looking at this one, I've been interested on it since it was announced. http://www.alcatelonetouch.us/idol-4s-5-inch-vr-smartphone

$350 is just an insane bargain and it's probably a better phone than the OP3, even with the slightly less powerful SD650. I would end my search for a new phone if I could find the same deal here in Europe but so far I'm seeing it selling fro over €400 which is a major difference. For €50 or €60 more one can already get a brand new S7 which is meh but we know is a solid phone on all camps.
[Samsung Galaxy On5 Questions & Answers] firepenguin:
Someone can give me a rom and boot dump of the Galaxy On5 Pro (the one with the Exynos 3475), possibly debloated?

Thanks in advance :D
[Samsung Galaxy On5 Questions & Answers] Azhero:
Galaxy On5 system dump does not exist. Download the stock ROM from sammobile. Rename .tar.md5 to .tar, take system.img file inside .tar using winrar, then extract system.img with the tool called ImageExtractor (search in XDA). To extract system.img, just drag and drop img file to ImageExtractor.exe. ., you'll see the "system_" folder. . .

To deodex the system, use Lollipop Deodexer

The boot.img can be taken from .tar file.

Do you have Galaxy J2? Are you trying to port the ROM just for Theme Center? Porting ROM from device with the same SoC is possible
[Samsung Galaxy On5 Questions & Answers] firepenguin:
Yes, i know that procedure, but i asked here hoping that someone have already a dump ready :laugh:

For the images i use a tool called ext4explorer (i don't know if the name is correct, but is something similiar to this)

No, i'm not porting this rom to the j2, but to the S5 Mini, because it haven't already Marshmallow, even if it's capable to run in. I've done some researches and i found that the exynos3475 is very similiar to the one used in the S5 Mini (exynos 3470). The On5 Pro is the unique 3475 device that have a non-carrier bloated/locked ROM, so i'll work on it.

Thanks for the tricks:good:

[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nekooken:
Hoping someone out there can help.

I've heard about the color calibration option in the Android N dev preview but sadly found out it's not in the Pixel C's build. Any chance of getting this?? I'm hoping so as the screen on my pixel c has the purplish ghosting (it's the 4th tablet I received with this issue, I gave up RMA'ing them) but the problem does seem to reduce if I slightly change the color calibration on it with 3rd party apps. Would love an OS solution though!

If your intentions are to shut down to save the battery, it really isn't necessary. When a WM phone goes into hibernation, it will use very little battery if any. If you are wanting something that resets the phone on a daily basis, many will do that. As someone else mentioned, Sprite Backup will do it and that is the one I use.
