no time for shenanigans

I'm probably going to just either jump back to a compatible G3 or ahead to a Moto X Pure Edition when it comes time to upgrade next spring. I don't have time for these Verizon shenanigans anymore.

Hello, i just rooted my phone and it was all okay until out of the blue, it turned off. i turned it back on but now it's just a black screen an it says "Unfortunately ***** has stopped" for literally everything on the phone! the gallery has stopped working, basically everything on the phone has stopped working!!! all i have is a black screen and the unfortunately message!! WHAT DO I DO!
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myphonesbetter:
I am noticing that some roms are requiring to have the latest firmware. Or a particular firmware.

What would be the best way of doing that? Should i just download and flash a RUU?

I can also update OTA as i am still stock right now. just unlocked bootloader and flashed twrp.

I currently am on lolipop and am reluctant to update. I know this usually makes things like s-off more difficult.

Not that i really need it to flash most roms.

I know that i could not s-off the newer versions of the one s. They changed the file you modify so it would re-read only itself on every boot. Cant remember the technical terms.

Any responses would help. thanks.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
The ota update will fail because you have twrp. You may as well go s-off and flash an unsigned zip.

Beamed in by telepathy.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myphonesbetter:
I didnt actually check it as write/read yet. I think that means i can still update.

Is it easier to s-off now? or is it the same process from LP to MM?

If i go with the OTA or manually flash a RUU will it ruin my chances for s-off?

Or make the process much more complicated.

Hello,

I would like to know what is the best Radio for Fido/Rogers in terms of battery life and HSDPA speeds!

Thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] smokin_nic:
Hi, I'm currently running 1.54.00.108.

Battery life is good but don't know HSPDA speed.

I'm using the same version as rupture: 1.54.00.10
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] a in yul:
thx...

I too would like this information, so as to update my rom/radio..

much obliged,

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] rupture:
I got too many missed calls with 1.54.00.108.

I am now using 1.54.00.10 on Rogers Wireless without any hiccups in Toronto!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] nanastas:
1.48

I went back to 1.48 from 1.54.07.00

Battery life was just too brutal.

What's the point of having HSDPA if you only get a few hours per charge?

Happy again now.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pasqua:
I am using 1.43. I was using 1.50 I believe, battery life = not as good as 1.43.

Don't know about HSPDA speeds as I don't use it, because well i I think it is obvious because I live in Canada.

1.43 has been great in terms of voice quality and battery life
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Quakie:
Radio & Rom

I use 1.54.07.00, but I found that if I don't use it with ROM 3.62, the battery life is very bad. The combination of 1.54.07.00 and Pandora 9.5/3.62 seems to yield the best results for me. I get almost a full day with heavy use and that's with HSDPA turned on.

Hope this helps!

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Duellore:
so i cannot post pictures because im a new member.

Step 1: watch any LG G5 teardown video and seperate the glass screen with mobo out of the metal casing.

step 2: on the right side of mobo under the black circle fabric (below the fabric DO NOT REMOVE FABRIC JUST LOOK UNDER IN) YOU WILL SEE 3 little button nubs.

each nub has a little bent peice of metal facing upwards. Each one needs to be pushed up a little more. the problem was they are not hitting the ribbon connection to give them power on the back casing.

you can see an image of it here imgur. com /G76xf8N remove spaces please.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] jswearingen:
Can confirm this worked for me, here's an album if y'all want different angles on the phone
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] karendar:
Confirmed as working for me too. I've done this mod on 3 phones already, all are a success. LG is horrible... Releasing phones with such blatant defects.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] NeoDJW:
It will stop working after few days, cuz those are volume pins, has nothing to do with gps
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] ryanpm40:
If thats the real fix and the battery touches it, I'm almost certain that replacing batteries is causing this. It explains why many are reporting the issue coming back overtime when warranty replacing. My replacement is already getting worse GPS signal
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] karendar:
Actually, makes sense these buttons are related to the volume buttons... There are multiple leads on the board connecting to the back of the case directly though, making me think that LG chose to use the "metal backing" as a GPS antenna. I've straightened multiple leads on the board which come in direct contact with the case itself and other elements just in case, but I have a feeling this will be an issue that plagues us G5 users until a hardware revision is done by LG...

Time to shop for another phone. What a bad investment this was...
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] NeoDJW:
karendar

wanna hear my story ? Bought S7 01.04.2016, 04.04.2016 was 1st time on warranty service cuz water in front cam, 2nd time 12.06 broke again same problem, last week 3rd time on warranty SAME PROBLEM, now I bought lg g5 with ****ed up GPS , VERY VERY nice.... looks like I'll give a shot to HTC 10 :/

if those 3 pins are gps antena and I dont think so, I'll just solder something to the backplace
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] karendar:
Horrible how us early adopters get rimmed...

To be honest, I think those three leads do nothing but placebo after looking at the board... But notice all the leads across the board which connect to the case itself. I think those would be a better spot for GPS and phone antennas... Wish someone had a technical diagram for us.

As for the HTC 10, I've heard good things... Just not sure I'll be able to sell this phone to buy one.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] karendar:
Signal still holding strong today... Getting massive signal with no drops.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] mkdr:
Is this problem still present in current versions? Or was it fixed? I can't believe LG still sells this phone with GPS not working? I get a G5 the next days, how can I check if mine has this issue too?
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] NeoDJW:
How ? I don' know dude, maybe, but just MAYBE you could install gps status and check it.........
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] mkdr:
I just read the "fix" and I just realized that this fix is total garbage. It can't work.

"each nub has a little bent peice of metal facing upwards. Each one needs to be pushed up a little more. the problem was they are not hitting the ribbon connection to give them power on the back casing. "

Everyone with normal reasoning can totally realize, that this "mod" will eventually fail again, really really soon, mostly after a few days, and you can read that btw already by lots of people, for example here:

https://m.reddit.com/r/lgg5/comments/4u8m9p/how_to_fix_your_gps_fixed_in_10_minutes/

Metal tends to change after some time or temperature / pressure, and it will fail again.

Why did no one develop a clever, simple and working mod so far? Why not just soldering a bit of liquid silver on the three contacts, with a bit of metal plate on top to make it 1-2mm higher? Or just even more simple: Do it on the backplate contacts.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] 1979Sentinel:
To me, personally, I don't mind being a little bit critical, but with this response I think you are to direct and judgemental towards the topic starter. Topic starter has given his best to share his practice. And I agree with you this one will probably not last, but let's keep it friendly.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] lolmensch:
your answer is total garbage. ever seen a car that scraped on the ground because the shock absorbers failed due to temperature and high pressure just by existing?

unless you bend them over and over the method will most likely last for many years. you dont have a lot of forces acting on it.

if you make a fixed connection like soldering, the small dynamic forces would eventually weaken the material and it would break after some time. think before insulting somebody's idea
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] albenex:
i don't think those are GPS antenna contacts.. as i used to observe that gps antennas usually have 1 or 2 contacts.. never 3! but they could do..

don't know if you read my topic about same issue and another "fix"..

at the moment we have 2 confirmed informations:

1) if you isolate detachable module pin connector you'll get no gps at all

2) gps will work good until you'll detach and reattach battery couple times.

this could explain why LG released this terminal which definitively passes any factory test! ...holy real day-use tests!
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] lolmensch:
we have 3 different gps systems on our phone so 3 makes sense. BDS (beidou) is only to be found on the newest hardware
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] albenex:
thanks, i've also tried this fix and seems working.. but indeed volume rockers are nearby and no other connectors were found.. mistery grows up..
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] davokazakiLL:
this fix save me, thanks for it, now the gps works fine :o:o
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] mkdr:
You can read, right?

1. look at the link. lots of people already claimed the """mod""" lasted about 2-5 days, then the problem came back.

2. what are you talking about!? Those contacts between the board and the backplate are based up on pressure. The mod just says "try to bend them upwards a bit". THIS MEANS IT WILL TOTALLY GO IN ITS BASE POSITION AGAIN REALLY SOON. It can't work.

3. back to, if you can read. Where did I say soldering it? Right, no where. I said put some layers of conducting anything on the backplates contacts to grow its height.

Not enough forces acting on them? Seriously? So to your logic, this means this problem wouldn't occur in the first place. Pressing with your fingers on the cover at that very place mostly is enough to push them back every time a little bit., also because they're at the very edge of the cover.

This fix worked for me.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Droidforce:
Got Mine G5 Repaired

My G5 is on it's way back from GPS repair. The repair notice listed as follows:

Defect: WI-FI detection problem

Repair Results: Bluetooth/WIFI module

I called them to say I had no WIFI or Bluetooth issues, however they told me it's all one module. Still not sure why it listed the defect as WIFI detection, but maybe it's not a free form field and that was the closest thing they could select. I should have it by Friday and hopefully the replacement module is different. I know that squeezing the sides of my phone made it work better so I also thought it was a contact problem.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] duffguy123:
I also sent in my G5 to LG for the GPS issue. They sent it back stating that they fixed some LED bleeding??

This fix worked for me when the GPS was acting up again and it hasn't been acting up since.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] RiverdALIEN:
this fix broke gps completely for me now i get zero satellites locked out of the 21 or so it sees. also spread the tiny crack in my screen from just the top corner to all the way down the phone when i was getting the thing open. not blaming yall just reporting
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] RiverdALIEN:
I'm gonna get the screen replaced and then if gps still doesn't return to functionality, send it back to LG for gps repairs.

has anybody ever ordered parts from Fixez dot com? I'm about to get the "LG G5 Display assembly with frame" from them it'd be nice to know they're legit
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] RiverdALIEN:
Correction, gps is working somewhat decent. Lock on is 50/50 but it'll still track me in pogo without a lock. Maps not so much
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] edrock200:
Folded up a little piece of tape, very tiny, and slipped under the contacts like the lg g2 Gps fix (so sad lg cant get it right, and sadder I bought another lg, lol!)

Hoping this keeps them "pushed up" against the case. Pre mod I was getting 0 locks, 100% of the time. So far I'm getting a lock within 4 - 5 seconds consistently. We will see if it lasts past the 2 week mark. Either way, thank you OP for sharing. Even if it doesn't work I learned how to tear down my phone and tried something new.

I got GPS problem as well, to those who tried this fix, for how long after fix it was working for you?

And that is making me so mad, cause i changed bootlooped g4 for g5 and now i have big problem again.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] dkh7m:
I just "fixed" my G5 this morning using the shim technique others have mentioned. I simply took out the motherboard screw just above the GPS leads, lifted the motherboard slightly and put a small piece of paper (the corner of a business card I cut off) under the MB. Put the screw back in and saw that the MB now sat up about 1mm above the edge of the back plate, as opposed to sitting flush like it did before. Once I reassembled the phone, I was able to get 13/22 sat. GPS lock within about 10 seconds indoors. Before I could only get lock inside if I did the pinch technique on the top-right of the phone (and that was only 7/12).

I bought a used ATT D850. Had problems with Mcafee, so I sent it off to someone to repair and it's back. It is running Stock 4.4.2 but has been rooted. And Mcafee has now been removed. It also has TWRP 3.0.0-0 installed.

I plan on using this on TMobile.

Can someone recommended a ROM? Is there a good path to go to from stock 4.4.2? Does it matter if I'm going to be on Tmobile with regards to ROM choice? I understand APN setting changes will need to be done, but other than that.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] rlichtefeld:
There is lots of stuff at that link, and before I would flash another phone's software to my phone, I would do lots of reading. It's what I did before I did any flashing to any of my phones.

I don't believe you can use a BL and modem from a phone that IS NOT a 900T to a 900T. However, you can try it. I would do a full NAND backup using TWRP or CWM or something before I would try to use firmware from another mode.

I have a 900T3 - and flashing the 900T firmware caused a bootloop on my phone. However, flashing the 900T3 fixed it.

However, hopefully someone here - or on that other forum - may have more knowledge.

There should be no problem flashing just the ROM, but firmware is made up of a partition table, bootloader, modems and the ROM.

When I first got my Herald I spend a good day or so customizing the hell out of WM5, editing the registry, installing custom themes, dialers, etc... so everything was to my liking. Then I saw screens of WM6 and waited eagerly for HTC to release the official WM6 ROM. By the time the ROMS were out there I was already happy with the way my Herald was functioning under WM5.

My question is this: Of those of you who have used WM5 and then upgraded to WM6, was it worth it? What benefits can I expect to see other than a slightly better looking interface??? Does the phone itself operate better? Do you have better reception? Better memory usage when using multiple apps?
