[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrKite4:
Hey everyone, my last LG G3 just crapped out on me, I had the screen flickering issue that just got worse and rendered the phone unusable. Now I ordered a Refurb from Ebay but I am getting may 3 minutes at first of use then it restarts, then I eventually only get 1 minute before it restarts, this happened out of the box. I already contacted the seller, but while I'm waiting I'd like to try to see if its a software issue and downgrade the phone using the LG Flash tool with the dll and tot files. I've done it many times before with no issues but now it fails every time. Is this caused by the phone running Marshmallow? Is there any work around or can a root and get TWRP on the D850 so I can try to flash a custom ROM? Thanks!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ruffio_:
I've been dealing with this for over a year. I first used my warranty and got a new one (or refurbished one idk) and then that one is giving the same exact problem now. If you look online there's loads of people with the same problem and a few proposed solutions none of which seem to work for everybody.

I first tried the connector on the camera trick. It worked for about one day.

Then I tried installing a thermal pad beneath the processor+thermal pad. It worked for a few days.

Then I saw people were baking the motherboard at 350 degrees for 10m and then letting it cool in the oven for 30m that worked for about 2 weeks. I also added the thermal pad cause I'm sure the overheating is what's causing this.

Since that was the longest solution, I've stuck the motherboard in the oven twice now cause the problem keeps coming back.

Today it came back again actually and I placed the phone between my palms right where the processor is and pressed with some force and the problem went away.

I've heard of one more solution which seems the most logical and I haven't seen anyone say it doesn't work: melting soldering paste around the processor using a heat gun as this makes the connections work again.

Sadly I don't have a heat gun and the local phone repair guy wants to charge me $30 so can use his so for now I'm gonna keep sticking it in the oven lol

My theory at least in my case is that the overheating loosens the connections over time and that causes the screen to flicker. That explains why when I bake it, it works the longest. The connections were "melted" back into place. Everytime the problem comes back the phone has been running extra hot.

If you try the soldering paste solution let me know how it goes.

My plan is to root my phone and do the temperature mod + the soldering paste. I'm having trouble rooting my phone for some reason tho.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrKite4:
That phone is done, I tried the heating with the solder flux and must have heated it too much because now I get nothing. This refurb phone I bought on ebay is rebooting on me now after a minute of use, but won't reboot if its idle. I'm trying to get it back to lollipop to see if it is the software but it keeps failing when using the LG Flash Tool, so I'm assuming I cannot but hoping I'm wrong. I tried the swapping out the batteries that I've been reading but that doesn't work.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] trojanvision:
I've done a search, but didn't come up with anything. I am positive that I am searching for the wrong terms because I've seen posts answering the following question before:

Could someone point me in the direction of registry settings to remove the big wireless indicator icon? There's no point in having the big H, 3G, E, or G symbol at the top menu bar and then having the smaller H, 3G, E, and G with the reception bars right next to it. I wanted to remove the big one and still keep the smaller wireless indicator and reception bar, if that makes any sense.

Thank in advance!

i tried to install gltools and my phone started to get lag in everything when i tried to uninstall gltools i got this new line in my bootloader "AP Fastboot Flash Mode (secure)" help
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gravemind2015:
The line just refers that you are in the bootloader (fastboot) mode now. It's completely normal. However the more curious thing is how it was not present before. I have that from the start. If your phone is running good now then nothing to worry. But if it is still lagging, you can follow the gltools xda version thread and create the uninstaller zip and flash that. If the problem persists then you may have to factory reset.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HKSpeed:
Unfortunately no. Only unmodified original Samsung software can be flashed without tripping KNOX. The whole point of KNOX is to identifiy modified/unofficial software. You can manually debloat the stock rom using apps like Package Disabler Pro.

Just flash whatever ROM you want. This probably will trip Knox, but who said Knox equals warranty? Please. If Samsung refuses to service your hardware because you rooted it, such claim will never stand in court. In other words, saying thatr Knox == warranty is BS.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
You can Odin the latest stock tar and take the OTA to the one releasing today.

I'd recommend a factory reset and wipe internal memory. But know that once you upgrade beyond Android 5.1, you cannot go back to KitKat via Odin stock tar flash.

Thanks for the help. Should I stay on kit Kat? If so what rom do you recommend please?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
Recommending ROMs is a subjective answer. There's lots of ROMs and I haven't ran them all.

As for your current ROM, check the Settings/About phone for current ROM. You may consider wiping cache and dalvik-cache and reboot or factory reset or clean install that ROM again. Check the thread for the ROM; you may have missed an update for that ROM. NK2 were better ROMs for KitKat; IIRC, NIE had Wi-Fi issues (mine would get a slow connection and stay slow until cycled). You may even have an old backup to restore, if your ROM is the latest.

Perhaps someone more experienced can answer less subjectively if my response is too one-sided. I've been hearing of lag on some lollipop ROMs but I think it depends on use of phone, kernel and thermal throttling. Marshmallow may be better but since Android 5.1 can't run the stock kernel with root unless you use SuperSU systemless root. That may occasionally lose root for unknown reasons.

Xposed got complicated after KitKat too. KitKat is a little slower but things were simpler with it.

I tend to run the same ROM and not switch so much. So personally I've only tried a couple of marshmallow ROMs and have settled on freeza's Note 4our ROM. It includes Xposed baked in the flash so that's a simpler transition if you like Xposed. Two other things I like about it is Beastmode kernel with core optimization and a system based SuperSU with old school init.d that you may be more accustomed to. To add another preference, there's a script to make sure ItsOn doesn't attempt to setup on each boot if you fail to remove it from your internal memory.

Just remember to wipe as suggested earlier if making that jump. A clean transition between Android versions is best as well as clean install of custom ROM.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
Hybrid-X for OB7 is here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57124981&postcount=2

I recommend disabling auto updates to keep from pushed beyond OB7. You'll need to Odin the OB7 stock tar and do the auto update disable quickly. The OB7 stock tar is in the thread I linked you to earlier. I recommend wiping internal memory and factory reset to make the first boot optimization go quickly. Use the deodexed custom ROM if interested in Xposed on Lollipop.

When flashing custom ROMs or Xposed in Lollipop and Marshmallow, heat is a bit of concern. I'd recommend planning to ventilate your phone to keep the heat manageable. You'll see what I mean; give it time to optimize and boot. You may see it pause to do that on the yellow Sprint splash screen on some ROMs.

Once you get the feel of Lollipop, decide if you want to venture past the point of no return with Odin, saying goodbye to Android 4.4 and 5.0

Moar 2.1b out the Ultimate Note 5 ROM are the most recent Lollipop custom ROMs which are also Android 5.1 All Android 5.1 ROMs require kernel exploit to root. OB7 was the last ROM I used stock kernel exclusively.

There are also custom Marshmallow ROMs. I prefer the Note 4our ROM by [MENTION=309990]freeza[/MENTION] for Marshmallow. It includes Xposed baked in the flash and Beastmode kernel has individual core control using kernel tuning apps. Mostly Odexed ROMs in Marshmallow are the way to go once again but also wipe internal memory and factory reset to make the transition easier coming to Marshmallow.

You've missed some good ROMs staying on KitKat. But take your time deciding what to do.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quantum3:
Thanks so much for the help. I did what you said (formatted internal memory and wiped everything) and decided to upgrade to Hybrid-X 2.3 deodexed with emotion kernel. I enjoyed the speed of the ROM but I ended up having problems with the Kernel. The battery charged for 6 hours and only got to 67%. I couldn't turn the brightness up because the CPU was overheating. I wiped that one and went with hybrid X 2.0 because of the stock kernel. It works but is slow (but stable). Still thinking about making the jump if you think I will get better response time / stability out of the higher builds. I think I just need to make the jump to marshmallow and be done with it ...... So same thing... find a stock build and take the OTA update right?

Thanks Again

Q
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
My opinion; I used the stock kernel until Android 5.1 when root exploit for kernel began to be required.

I've stuck with Beastmode kernel since because out of the box, it's more like stock with no tuning. Initial kernels I tested seemed off without tuning so I went back to Beastmode.

Marshmallow offering of Beastmode has per core tuning. Battery life hasn't dramatically increased with marshmallow doze. I still think KitKat was better on battery life. But IMO Google apps just don't respect battery in that regard so it makes the subjective battery recommendations by Android version difficult to compare.

I've heard RAM management and kernels were problematic in Android 5.1 but nonetheless, development has been abandoned. Marshmallow, for those who set it up properly, is where stability and improvements and possibly Moore development are found. Just my two cents.

If you can't find happiness with stock rooted OB7 or KitKat custom ROMs, you may consider marshmallow PG1 stock rooted until a custom ROM drops. Warning: that would break Odin downgrade to Android 5.0 and KitKat for your current status.

If you want to go back to KitKat and try bobcat, don't take any OTA updates or flash a later tar than OB7. You're still safe if you didn't. The lesser alternatives would be flash OB7 and root (stay with the stock kernel) or Odin NK2 and flash latest bobcat.

Either way, factory reset and wipe internal memory before proceeding.

[Xposed General] Nibleheim:
First off, sorry if I'm not in the right place - Let me know or move me, its fine by me. This is my first post here...

Backstory: Our company is trying to become more secure(They just blew 30k on Airwatch(MDM Software) and have a full time employee on the phone with him just about every day...) and I'm one of the lower guys on the IT Totem poll but I'm not really worried about them yelling at me for having root, and I can get my E-mails right now but I do know eventually they are going to bring it up and probably make me get rid of it. Xposed has a work around for this, but when I flash Xposed - The app crashes upon opening every time "Inbox" or "Airwatch" Has closed unexpectedly.

At first I thought it was the RomAur I installed because I went that route as it packaged Xposed and saved me a minute and I wanted to try it anyways - So I went back to stock with Root, Airwatch opened fine. So then I just tried to install Xposed and when I booted up it "optimized" all of my Apps, including Airwatch and Inbox(Which is Airwatch's Mail thingy) .

So, I undoubtedly believe its something in Xposed that's causing a corruption in Airwatch so I cannot even open it. I feel pretty good that if I could get it to run with Xposed that either Rootcloak or the Hidewatch Xposed mod's can fix it, but I can't get it to open to even test my theory.

As I said, I'm in IT and I've been flashing phones/rooting/etc for about 6 years but generally never posted because I didn't feel nearly as smart as everyone else here seems on the forums but I am capable and can give logs if you tell me how to - but now I have a problem and I believe with the increase of MDM software out here that I'm not the only one, or there is about to be a lot more like me that have this problem.

So.

1.) Does anyone have an idea how to stop the optimization of an APP through upgrading to the Xposed installer?

2.) An Idea to get Airwatch to a point that it can open?

3.) Something totally ingenious I'm not capable of thinking of? I have good Googling skills but have found nothing.

Yes, I have even uninstalled with root system removers, etc. I even restored a backup that was factory with it working, flashed root, still worked. Flashed closed, stopped. Reinstalled, still same error. Uninstalled, put RootCloak on, unwatch, still crash when installing. I'm giving it a break for now, been spending many hours a day this week trying to get around it. I really appreciate the ideas, keep em coming!
