[G3 General] Borat38:
I replaced mine with a Lenovo K4 Vibe. Most specs similar to LG G3 but it has fingerprint sensor, and doesn't have the heating problems I experienced with the G3 when on wifi or using Google Maps.

Personally, I've given up on LG. Used to own an LG G2 (D802) and then recently an LG G3 (D858 dual SIM). Both showed the same problem: faltering screen that eventually fades to black in under a minute. There are plenty of solutions on YouTUbe, but all of them are temporary. Some involve taking out the motherboard and heating in the oven at 320°F, some using soldering wax to re-solder the processor and graphics sockets.

The permanent fix is to buy a new IC and have a capable technician re-solder it into the motherboard. This also seems to solve the yellowish tint on the screen. The problem of LG phones is twofold: heating that starts mysteriously, then the ultra thin motherboard that causes IC melts under the heat.

Sold my G3 and have moved on. Now I know why LG has such little resale value for its G-series phones. Never again.
[G3 General] jbrookley:
Yeah, I think I'm with you on that one. Loved my G3 while I had it but it only lasted me a year (admittedly, it was a secondhand phone, but the life of the phone has only been about 2 years), but having it die on me is something new. I have a bunch of older phones lying around (admittedly, most of them with Verizon so they're unusable to me now on AT&T) but I've never had one full on just give up on me. Doesn't speak very well for their reliability. Once I had an issue and was told it was a well known issue with the motherboard and there's not much I can do about it, I've looked elsewhere.

In my case, apparently, I've been paying for insurance via AT&T and they upgraded my failed phone to the Samsung Galaxy S6. Pretty sweet deal for me at this point.
[G3 General] appsmarsterx:
get a redmi note 3 snapdragon 650 variant..
[G3 General] MonstaSaleens:
Please dont go that route lbs. As to what im hearing i wouldnt go for a g4. I hear it has bootloop issues for most phones and theres no development for verizon yet because the bootloader is still locked. Theres barely any development in international and they have the bootloader unlocked for the international variant... Id say that phone failed as a G series. People are trying to sell there g4's for a different phone on xda
[G3 General] cile1977:
I'm looking at LG V10 - price is nearly same as was the price of LG G3 when I bought it and it will be even lower when LG V20 comes...
[G3 General] DummyPLUG:
Upcoming nexus? I got both N5 and G3, the G3 always slow down when gaming while the N5 didn't, also the N5 GPS & compass is much better then G3.

p.s. I need to use the N5 for pokemon go, the G3 just always overheat, unable to got gps signal, wrong compass bearing, also the dark camera in AR mode
[G3 General] tiguy99:
This.. Or the new Honor 8
[G3 General] tunichi01:
Last time I was thinking of replacing my G3 I was considering the Nexus 6P. Then the Oneplus 3 came out.... Now there's the Axon 7 but I'm not sure since the bootloader is still locked.

I'm still not sure since great phones keeps coming out
[G3 General] Romanus98:
Wait for LG G6 or LG V20.... dont buy s*it Samsung S7edge -_-
[G3 General] jayce996:
i'm in the same though, willing to change the G3 and i'm looking especially for a very good camera phone, able to deal with games, good battery and no overheating

5.5" screen minimum, no iphone 6S, no Samsung S7, what i've listed so far is Honor 7, Huwaei P9 or Mate8 or the Nexus6P. easily rootable and highly customizable by the XDA community ;)
[G3 General] tiguy99:
We're in the same boat!

The Huawei phones are really impressive. Thinking of the Honor 7 or 8 when they come out here in 2 weeks
[G3 General] Romanus98:
nononoonooooo.... Huawei and Honors > SoC Kirin procesors -_-

Are you serious?!? Snapdragon is best for Custom ROM, while the Kirin cpu do not support this, in all sides (snapdragon is easy to root too...)
[G3 General] jochem86:
I am also looking for a new phone right now after almost 2 years. first choise for me was the nexus 6p but reading on the internet i find that the new nexus is also coming around okt/nov.... and i really like to flash and have the newest google updates... the best choise is the new nexus :)
[G3 General] jayce996:
that's a very good input! thank you very much !!!

so the list removes all Honor & Huwaei models... so bad.

remaining ones:

- Nexus 6P or coming one in october

- samsung S7 edge, all websites are all so positive with it... look is so basic... but this remains a solution

- SONY Xperia Z5 or Z Performance

what else?
[G3 General] jayce996:
Lg V20 announced for September

[G3 General] jbrookley:
If you don't mind having your phone burn itself out, LG is a great option. Apparently, they're notorious for having thin PCBs, the boards overheating, and then just dying (wish I knew that when I bought my G3). Experienced that myself, firsthand. Personally, I plan on avoiding LG phones moving forward. Too bad though, I loved it while it worked.
[G3 General] jayce996:
You mean the overheating is not only on the G3? V10 had already it?

[G3 General] jinderation:
Lg is famous for its bootloop ...the infamous g4 is more than enough for anyone not to buy phones from this company ... Lg is bleeding dry fixing g4 throughout the world
[G3 General] tiguy99:
Snapdragon's more popular but doesn't make it a better processor.

Pound for pound, these phones out perform all snapdragon phones including the LGs and Samsungs and cost less.

At this point, give me a great phone that's fast, smooth and reliable. I'll take that over one I can root. :)

The honor phones are looking really impressive right about now!
[G3 General] Romanus98:
Wait for LG V20... I am waiting too :P
[G3 General] EcPercy:
I picked up an s7 Edge when I recontracted, but I just couldn't get over the pink hue to the white color on the screen (even after trying other screen color modes). I think something with pentile matrix (Amoled) just doesn't agree with me so I sold the s7 Edge.

I was planning to get an HTC10, but then the rumors started dropping about the v20 and the Marlin (HTC Nexus). I can wait a couple more months to see what the "real" specs are on the v20 and the Marlin before deciding which route I will go.
[G3 General] Romanus98:
LG V20 wait for 8.september :)
[G3 General] fogimup:
I'm also in the same boat, love the G3 even with the occasional slowdowns during gaming and heating issues, still a damn good phone.

I've dropped it that many times and replaced the screen twice as a result and still going strong. Recently it started rebooting randomly, easy fix, got a new battery has another 2 years on it at least... but I'm looking for something different. Never liked the Samsungs and probably never will. If only the G5 was waterproof and bigger battery, would have bought it without thinking twice, instead I'm patiently waiting, for exactly this and maybe something with better sound output.. hopefully in 2017 LG will come out with a phone that has everything one could want and kill the market again like they did with the G3.
[G3 General] EcPercy:
I will be waiting, but for sure the v20 won't launch in Singapore in Sept. I will most likely need to source mine from elsewhere. I think Hong Kong is one of the launch countries so if any work trips come up I will get it there.
[G3 General] jinderation:
Haha lg will only come out as the headache for owners like the g4...
[G3 General] Aaren11:
If I go for anything in the next 6 months it'll most likely be an unlockable T-mobile V10. There simply isn't anything else on the market currently that meets my fixed needs of a removable battery and back cover for the possibility of extended aftermarket cells, an SD slot for my collection of cards and a good screen to body ratio. Nevermind bootloader unlock. I've lost count of the amount of apps I rely on daily that require full root.
[G3 General] jayce996:
What do you think guys about the Samsung galaxy note 7?
[G3 General] talya10:
Wait for the V20 and if you cant wait V10 prices are all time low now go get one, otherwise you cant go wrong with the Oneplus 3
[G3 General] superdon:
I am in a similar position but need to replace my G3 quickly.....like today!

I have a full refund on the G3 which is around 440 Euro/380 GBP/490 USD and I don't really want to spend more than that on the replacement. Ideally I want to buy from Amazon, but any other good supplier with good warranty support would be fine. So, that cuts out the high end brand new phones. So, I am looking at slightly older or less high end models.

Any suggestions? I do like as close to vanilla android as possible and am not too bothered these days about custom ROMs etc. But I like the size and form of the G3. I also like wireless charging if possible, but not a deal breaker. I don't want a backward step - I want a phone at least as good as the G3

The other alternative is, I can have a new G3 sent to me.
[G3 General] clockwork58:
Also waiting for the V20. Everyone elses phones nowadays seems to be smaller than 5.5" or have a lower resolution. I don't *need* to upgrade after two years with my G3 (everything runs fine after countless ROMs installed, but recently replaced the battery), but that V20 is the only one I'd consider at this time.
[G3 General] tiguy99:
Congrats on getting that much back on the G3.

In US, new G3s are around 200 and slightly under

If I had 490 to spend on a phone, i'd consider the s7 edge plus (exynos version), an s6 edge plus 64gb, one +3, HTC 10, v20, Note 4 exynos, or Honor 8 64GB which is currently had 50.00 off promo for preorder making it 399.99 right now

That's about it

Either of those would be my next move
[G3 General] superdon:
Yes i was surprised when amazon offered a full refund just under two years after buying the phone!

I have spent a long time looking and really the only one of your suggestions that comes out in budget is the oneplus 3. The only thing that worries me is the slow support and warranty. Also i do like the G3 and i think i will miss it. Despite its faults.
[G3 General] jayce996:
the V20 is now live, i do not really like its look. the enhancements on the sound are not key elements for me.

the Note 7 is blowing everywhere but it is still on the top of my list as it is very good looking and with a bunch of key points (water resistance, ....)

still Apple, Google, HTC, Huawei need to show their shinny phones to help in the final choice.
[G3 General] talya10:
The V20 is little bit underwhelming......

Not that much improvements compared to the V10, don't get me wrong the V10 was a tank, arguably the most underrated top flagship of 2015.

Those who are looking to upgrade may as well go with the V10 now, you can get it between 399-420 euros right now. IMO a bestbuy at this price category
[G3 General] jayce996:
now comes the iphone 7, where's the revolution? ...
[G3 General] ch99tj:
Agreed. Was going to get the S7 Edge or HTC 10 but have concerns on the bootloader and root for the Samsung and I have had bad luck with my last HTC (M8) so neither one got my alligator arms to reach into my wallet.p
[G3 General] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
i was looking at the V20 but they removed the back buttons T_T
[G3 General] zehar.salem:
OnePlus Three is the phone to get.
[G3 General] superdon:
Yes. Got one now. Its great and super fast compared to the G3. The only thing that bugged me was the screen obviously wasn't as good, but now my eyes have adjusted it's fine. Think I need to take off the factory screen protector to improve it even more.

Not a bad result having had the G3 for two years and then getting the full refund :)
[G3 General] tiguy99:
Amazed you got a full refund!

That's like having a blank check and saying go run and play in the candy store!!!!
[G3 General] superdon:
Me too to be honest. Meant I could buy a oneplus 3, some accessories and still have plenty of change left :)
[G3 General] appsmarsterx:
I'm also planning on getting op3, what is the issue with the op3 screen? is it less sharp due to 1080p? or less contrast?
[G3 General] superdon:
Just less sharp. But still very good. I am convinced the factory screen protector is partly to blame but I am reluctant to remove it. I had no screen protection on the G3 and had no issues at all but I have read reports of the OP3 scratching fairly easily.
[G3 General] tiguy99:
Would love to try the one + 3

Wish they had them in the stores to play with.

Let us know if and when you get it.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wongfeihung1984:
Hi everyone,

Well here is my problem. For the past few weeks I've been testing custom rom for my Chinese SM-N9006. I have successfully flashed Resurrection Remix and Darklord full N5 UX N920SKSU2ZPFB.

Then I wanted to try other roms, even though they weren't supported specifically for my device...Just out of curiosity to see if it would work.

I successfully installed Purify CM13 for Hlte / T-Mo / Can -- v4.1 and Temasek's UNOFFICIAL Build v9.3. I was able to make those rom work, I could surf the internet, make/receive phone calls, send/receive sms.

The only thing that didn't work throughout both roms was that my sd card was detected but "stopped working" and when I entered the storage section of the settings, in the Temasek it was a white screen and in the Purify rom the settings app crashed. I could not backup anything with TB since the folder was on the ext sd card so I booted into twrp and try to restore the previous rom I was using, the Darklord one. That's when it happened: everything went as usual but after hitting reboot my phone went into downloading mode. On it it said:

Could not do normal boot.

ODIN MODE

PRODUCT NAME: SM-N9006

CURRENT BINARY: Custom

SYSTEM STATUS: Custom

REACTIVATION LOCK: OFF

KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x1 (4)

QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE (CSB)

RP SWREY: S2, T2, R2, A3, P2

SECURE DOWNLOAD: ENABLE

UDC START

Downloading... Do not turn off target!!

I want to add that I can restore my Resurrection Remix backup in twrp.

Why should I do next? Is my Darklord backup corrupted? Should I reflash Darklord rom? Can I save this backup or is it useless now?

Thanks for you help.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovexda88:
Is it possible to boot into recovery mode? Maybe you use wrong Darklord Kernel?

If you can only access ODIN, then I suggest you flash an official firmware/ROM via PC Odin.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wongfeihung1984:
Hello, thanks for trying and helping me.

I can boot into recovery just fine and restore my previous Resurrection Remix backup. No problem in that matter.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovexda88:
Btw, Darklord requires specific kernel. Try to install correct version of it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wongfeihung1984:
The thing is Darklord was working really well before. It's only after trying some other roms and going back to Darklord that I encountered this problem.

I currently have a 128GB SSD I'm using as adoptable storage. With the prices of larger SSD's dropping I can see buying a larger one sometime. If I buy a larger one and plug it into usb and select it to be adoptable will all the files on the smaller SSD be copied over?
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] switchy85:
How strange I was going to post this exact same question today. Hope someone has an answer, as my Google-foo seems to not be turning anything up.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qzxi:
AFAIK, adoptable storage is encrypted

when the SSD formatted as adoptable it will ONLY work with the device format that drive

if you remove the SSD it will not work with other device (include a PC),, at least android system file won't read in PC

then it's impossible to copy the system file to new SSD

maybe you can attach 2 SSD (old and new one)

use it a couple days,, then remove the old one

crossfinger the system file already copied (automatically by android itself) to the new one

VIOLA!!

IDK it'll work or not.. i don't have 2 SSDs this time

LOL

AFAIK,, android allow u use more than 1 storage as adoptable

that is your chance
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barbedwiredave:
Yeah this is kinda what I was getting after, plug in the second SSD, pick it as adoptable storage and hope the files copy over

[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] xterminater07:
Finally got it to work! After pushing twrp you have to type fastboot boot twrp.img and you will get a screen that looks like it's broken. Leave it alone for about 1 minute or two then the screen will turn off. Then press the power button once only to wake the screen up. From there twrp is working! Thank you to steve mars and jim262 for this tips!
