View attachment 3899960 For a two year phone the g3

is not a bad purchase fella. Lots of ROMs to flash here on XDA to. Rockin the RR rom 6.0.1 at the min. from my experience with it Its the shiit so go get one ,,,[emoji12]
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] no14me:
How much you get G3? If it is same as Redmi note 3, take the Xiaomi
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] appsmarsterx:
that depends.. if you want a better camera, removable battery, nfc, a 2k screen go with g3.

if you want excellent battery backup, fingerprint scanner, better gaming performance, then go with redmi note 3. but if you're not a fan of miui, then you might wanna root it and go with custom rom path...

redmi note 3 also has excellent developer support imo.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manuhackzzz:
dont buy better go with one plus one ... 2k display in this device ruined the true potential of the chip ... it drains battery and gaming performance also gets down as GPU has to render on 2k display ,,, OPO has same spec with 1080p display .. which is better .. battery backup is awesome .. but camera is no better than G3 ...
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anne_Droid:
Thanks guys for the suggestions.

I'm not much into camera or gaming. I almost never play games. looking for a unit that can handle mutli tasking well (sms/facebook/viber/maps).

Will look into the other

will definitely flash a custom rom, and get as close to google (no other stuff) as possible. :)

G3 3gb 32gb dual sim = about $255

Redmi Note 3 3Gb 32gGb = about $$205

should I get the redmi? :)
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mashed_Potatoes:
I was choosing between G3 and Redmi 3S and i went for G3 (because i had experience with Nexus 4 and G2).

I am happy with my G3, however the Xiaomi phones are excellent. You should try them out first before making the decision.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisemberg_91:
I have a G3 with 6.0 MM v30N stock firmware ( 3 GB ram) and I have to say that if you use a lot apps like Google Maps with gps always on and using 4G too you will have a big battery drain due to 2k display also considerig that you use also socials like Facebook and Messenger a lot, so I don't know if G3 is the best choose for you right now cause I think you wouldn't be able to cover all the day with your use of the phone. I hope I have helped you and sorry for my english :)
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xabzzz:
G3 is a great phone but it is really great for taking pictures !

At the time (2-3 years ago) it was considered as the best of its class ... with similar or better perfomances than Apple & Samsung for quality pictures and clips.

Speaking of camera, the only thing nicer in G4, the follower to G3, is that it supports camera2 api (useful for manual settings). But then, there were so many problems of "motherboard giving boot loop issues" that the G4 is really useless or rather a bet on money (except if your mother board has a serial starting with numbers 505 up to 508 ...., then you are sure you pulled the wrong number and will have bootloop issue and death.

Beware, every "new" phone, though really expensive, comes bundled with deadly issues ! G4, for sure, but Samsung as well ... like S5 (the equivalent of G3, or S6 = G5 or S7 ... A search for "common problems" is really creepy !

Back to G3, a nice thing also, it that the back is not "glued" as in Sony Z1-Z2- etc. or Samsung S5-S6-S7 or plenty new phones. So, ok, you cannot take a bath with it or take pictures underwater, but so the battery can be taken away and changed easily (a plain second battery .always charged ... is a nice thing).

For the rest, all 2-3 years old top phones ( handle quite well everything common such as calling, surfing, playing, etc ... (same thing as with PC). Except if you are a gamer, dont get fooled by power !

Development for G3 will decrease quite rapidly because it is already an end of life product and it will be only occasionally developped by developpers who really love new things and new possibilites (Think of Nougat coming out these days)

Launched with KK android system, fully supporting LP it handles quite well MM (=Marshmallow)!

There's plenty to say yet, but everything really depends on your needs and the money you have.

This is just as buying a second hand car .... AND DON'T FORGET TO GOOGLE for " xyz COMMON PROBLEMS" where xyz is replaced by G3, or ... G4, or Gç, or S5, S6, S7 (for Samsung)

Have a nice day !

i had galaxy j7 2016 and i switched it with LG G3 , really happy with it
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beeduq:
There's some catch imo: Cracks shows up in sides, back cover is easily cracks.... But mostly great phone for office worker, nice display, loud speaker, easy to handle, double tap to wake is nice, like in meeting, having it on the table, double tap doesn't distract as much as having phone in hands, and double tap to sleep... As multitask use is decent, but more ram might be needed, I think. Switching from one to other apps is good too. Now some custom roms have dual-screen options (two apps in one screen), but I can't remember which one...

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
with the amount of tweaks you can make the G3 depending on the version out perform a lot of the other flagships
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chocowilliam:
It is still relevant in 2016, or even 2017. G3 is on the list that will get Nougat.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
Well most "upgrades" are downgrades with no xda support...and tend to lack on a few departments...like less ram or a worse camera...or lower battery life

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chocowilliam:
Yeah, that too are my considerations upon buying a phone. Going back, if it weren't of Vulkan G3 might still get Nougat treatment.

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Wolfillete:
Hi everyone! Has anyone tried to instal A.R.I.S.E. sound system on stock OxygenOS? Is it working fine? I alredy have FreedomOS but I want to go back to stock because of connectivity issues (drops).

Thanks!
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] ungeeked:
Isn't Freedom = debloated OOS which means your problems will persist on stock ROM as well. You should try flashing stock kernel which should resolve your issue.

From what I have heard, only Divine Beats works with stock kernel.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Wolfillete:
Yes, I know its because of the kernel but if I flash stock kernel FreedomOS won't boot... I told the dev and I flashed his OOs patched kernel but it didn't solve the issue.

I've read something in the A.R.I.S.E. thread but I'm not shure what rom people were using in their OP3.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] ungeeked:
I'm using ARISE on OP3Lite ROM (very similar to Freedom I think) with EX kernel. So far, very good.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Akiewq:
I just flash the unofficial Resurrection Remix port, and the latest Elite kernel. Everything works almost perfectly, except unavailability of MTP(that does not quite matter since I use an SD card), and the volume problem while earphones plugged in. Is there any solution for this?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
yea either get v4a working and set gain lower, or flash another rom
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Akiewq:
Sorry for the repost, but I just installed v4a but don't know how to setup to get lower sound:confused:
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] macschwag14:
Once you've installed the driver and the app, flip the ON toggle under Headset to enable V4A if you haven't already. Then click on Gain Output or Max Gain toward the bottom (I don't have V4A installed right now so what it's labeled as is from memory). There will be 3 sliders. Lower the middle one to reduce the volume.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Akiewq:
I did everything and toggled Output Gain to something like -10.5db or -40db, but it seems that nothing changed.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] macschwag14:
Mine was finicky at first too. All I can suggest is to verify it correctly flashed the file, check Force Enable V4A in the app, update the driver through the app if you haven't already, and restart.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Akiewq:
Perhaps it doesn't work for me(with this device or this ROM?). Anyway thinks
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] macschwag14:
Possibly. It worked for me on both Stock and LeeDroid. I haven't tried any others.

Apparently you have to install the launcher as a system app. Not sure how to do this
[Google Pixel XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] raynan:
Assuming this stays open, you have to move the APK into /system/app/ which requires root.

[Google Pixel XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] st0nec01d:
You don't NEED root, if you have TWRP recovery you can use the file manager under advanced to move the apk, just make sure you set the CHMOD permissions to 0644 before rebooting.

I have action launcher running as a system app in the same way without using root and losing android pay.

If you have stock recovery as an img file you can even use TWRP to reflash stock recovery to keep OTA's.
[Google Pixel XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZawZaw:
Can work on other devices, such as Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P?
[Google Pixel XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] st0nec01d:
Since I have it running on a Nexus 7 with a custom Nougat ROM I would think so. Also had it before on my OP3 using she method as my previous post for both devices, you don't NEED root, it makes it easier sure but you can still use it as a system app without root. As such Android Pay, etc will work fine.
[Google Pixel XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZawZaw:
Thanks you very much Bro

[Google Pixel XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] guitar1238751:
You can install an app as a system app through adb. (Root)

Step 1. Put the apk on your device:

adb push action3.apk /sdcard/

Step 2. Enter these commands:

*******Replace "filename.apk" with the apk you are trying to install *******

adb shell

su

mount -o rw,remount /system

mv /sdcard/filename.apk /system/priv-app

chmod 644 /system/priv-app/filename.apk

mount -o ro,remount /system

mount -o ro,remount /system

exit

exit

Step 3. Now reboot the device:

adb reboot

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] yourrealking:
I am not talking about Nougat; I am talking about security updates.

Until October, 2016, I received small monthly security patches on my Nexus 7 (2013). On September, there was no patch, and that was when Google made clear that Nexus 7 would not get Nougat. Does this mean that Google has completely abandoned the Nexus 7 (2013), and will no longer provide security patches for it?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] the_gunner:
The Nexus 7 '13 was released on July 26, 2013. Google promised 3 years of security patches from the product release date, or 18 months from when they leave the Google Store, whichever is longer. They pulled the N7 '13 from the Store at the end of April last year, so they are obligated to about 2 weeks more support, then we're done. So, we should receive the OCT 16 security patch, and that will be it for the N7 '13.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] yourrealking:
Thank you. So, basically, all Nexus 7 users would need to switch to CyanogenMod from November, if they do not want security breaches.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Masterchief87:

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shade217:
Currently on OPO Cyanogen CM13, 6.0.1

Been having this issue with SMS apps lately, perhaps I'm too picky, but have been looking for a good app that has chat heads and does it as well as Facebook's Messenger.

Now, I believe as of June, Messenger rolled out its new SMS integration allowing you to not only use it for Facebook messaging, but for SMS as well. Great. Too bad I've been so used to the amazing customization of Textra for nearly 2 years.

Messenger is severely lacking so far in terms of customization. It doesn't really jive well with the theme of my phone. (Boohoo right?)

Now, the issue arises in trying to send Facebook SMS and Textra SMS at the same time. Facebook SMS doesn't wake the screen, or have colored icons or chats, something I paid money for to have in textra.

I'm faced with needing to pick a default SMS for the sending app. I can receive notifications on both. But how can I bypass the sending option?

Reason being, I'm willing to part with the base part of textra if I can get the notifications to work, and send my SMS from fb messenger.

Tldr: I want to be able to send SMS from Facebook messenger and textra at the same time without switching default SMS apps.

Or send SMS from fb messenger and receive notifications only on textra.

Here's to never settling.

[Elephone P9000 Questions & Answers] sundawn:
Hi,

on my P9000 the glass is broken (display working but no touch).

So i want to sell it as it is and do a factory reset - the problem is i can not boot in recovery. When i boot with volume up + power the white elephone logo appears then nothing happens for a while (much much longer than with a normal boot) and then it continues with the normal boot.

The recovery is TWRP.

The volume up button does work as i can see when it is booted, the power button obviously works too.

Can i trigger the reset via USB or do you have any idea how to boot the recovery?
[Elephone P9000 Questions & Answers] Kooperativ:
I think you can. But you need "Developer Options" to be turned on for this.

Connect your phone via usb

open a command line

type in

adb reboot recovery

You should boot into recovery.

...My phone has also a broken display, so I ordered a USB-C otg adapter. I hope I can connect my mouse to the phone and so save my most important data and activate usb mounting.
[Elephone P9000 Questions & Answers] sundawn:

* daemon started successfully *

error: device unauthorized.

This adbd's $ADB_VENDOR_KEYS is not set; try 'adb kill-server' if that seems wrong.

Otherwise check for a confirmation dialog on your device.

Did this work? As i can not confirm the adb access without Touch this might be a solution for me too.
