[T-Mobile LG G3] pol098:
LGUP "UNKNOWN" and FlashTool failure with LG G3 (and possibly others)

When I downloaded and installed LGUP with the DLL installer stated to be for the LG G3, the program did not recognise the phone, reporting it as "UNKNOWN". The LG FlashTool also failed, reporting the IMEI and PID as NULL. After spending a lot of time on this, I twigged that the DLL file in the LGUP model directory was for the 8994 processor; but the G3 has an 8974, quite different and incompatible. I located the DLL installer MSI file for 9874 devices, uninstalled LGUP and the DLLs from Windows add/remove programs, ran the 9874 DLL installer and reinstalled the LGUP program, and everything worked.

The file is, amongst other places, on https://uptoandroid.com/download-lg-up-tool-for-lg-smartphone-latest/. Do not download DLL files for LG G4, LG V10, LG G3, LG Stylo, filename LGUP_Common_DLL_Ver_1_0_28_5 .msi, but instead For LG phones based on Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 MSM8974 SoC, filename LGUP_8974_DLL_Ver_0_5.msi:.

Hi,

I have tried upgrading the xda II, it gets to 62% then stops there, and eventually the program closes. The XDA II has been upgraded successfully in the past and now it wont upgrade and now remains in a boot loader mode.

Does anyone have any ideas how to get this working again.

I am using a Verizon Note 7, and i downloaded Package Disabler 6.3 off of the forums here. There is nothing that says com.samsung.firmware.sensorhub or com.samsung.android.firmware.tsp when i search. Why can i not find these anywhere, do i need to purchase a version of this software then install an older version of it to work properly?

I did however disable these just in case:

[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dxxvi:
Hi All, I have a SM-T713 which was rooted, TWRP 3.0.2-1 installed and Lightning ROM 6.0.1 installed. Today I went to Settings | Developer Options and turned off the OEM unlock something. Then I went to the Terminal Emulator and run su, then reboot recovery. Now my tablet is stuck with "Custom binary blocked by FRP. SECURE FAIL: RECOVERY". I tried Home + Volume Down + Volume Up + Power, the tablet is restarted and then that message appears again. If I do Home + Volume Down + Home, a blue screen appears "If you want to download a custom OS, press the volume up key. Otherwise, press the volume down key to cancel". Pressing volume up show a Downloading... screen. Then I don't know what to do next.

Please help if you know how to fix it. If the instructions are for Linux (because I'm using Linux), it's the best. Windows instructions are ok too.

Thanks.

[Samsung Gear S] Gootah:
Hey guys,

I just got my Gear S for FREE!

Looking to put it to good use.

I see that you can root and flash stuff, but which OS will give me the best music control and Maps experience?

I hate Tizen because you have to swipe for music controls, wish they were on the font screen.

You also have to be pretty precise with the buttons.

Will Wear or actual Android afford me anything better? If I put Android on this thing do I even get a wearable anymore? Seems like I'd get a standalone device!

Please let me know, really just want to control music without taking my phone out of my pocket and use Maps without data on the phone.

Notifications that can't be slammed through by my girl while I'm sleeping would be nice too.

Thanks!
[Samsung Gear S] ipguy:
If you install Wear you'll get an Android Wear device, pure and simple.

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] nadejo:
1.Rom

1. aicp (7.1) + pico gapps (7.1)

2. data & cache F2FS (also system f2fs once there is a 7.1 rom that supports it)

(future CAF roms like aospa(7.1) will have higher performance using a custom kernel because CAF allows better modification)

Why aicp nougat?

The reason why i currently prefer aicp:

-*everyday nightly with full changelogs

-*ota app works and you can even add additional zips to flash

-*its based on cm14.1 but performance decrasing and buggy commits are not included till they are fixed. (not blaming any dev but i've had allot graphic glitches using cm14.1)

2. Disable non important system apps you dont use like music player if you use an other music player or audio fx if you use viper

3. Use inbuild root (try to have as less bloat/apps as possible) viper will still work if you change selinux to permissive you can do this even using exkm app.

4. disable animations in dev options.

2.Kernel

Ex-kernel (cm), yes this kernel currently works using 7.1 aosp & cm roms but only because the current cm14.1 kernel is still based on cm13 kernel.

1. Disable touchboost

2. Set gpu boost to "high"

3. Disable fsynch

4. Overclock cpu but be careful !!!

5. Use fiops 3072

6. Set dirty ratio 90, dirty background ratio 80, minfree kbyts 4096 and cache pressure 10

7. Disable adaptive low memory killer.

8. Use exkm app and load shotgun profile in gov settings.

9. Leave anything else as default.

system apps i've simply disbaled in settings/apps without any third party app

yes its because it was the only rom wich supports system f2fs and his kernel has 16 times faster random read performance because he ported seeder from linux to android. best combination will be AOSPA nougat + Arter Kernel + all partitions on f2FS

Hi guys,

its a long story with a short "core". I have a lg g3 d855 and its in near new condition and it would be really pity to throw it away cause it has no hardware or optical damage.

ISSUE: Wifi is not working. Its always tell me not possible to connect. Or Connection failure and so on. Sometimes it connects for 5 to 10 minutes than it looses the signal again. Sometimes it connects for some hours and than its not working again.

I've read a lot and a long time in the internet about the wifi problem on lg g3. So believe me i already tried all kind of methods with change settings in my router with static ip and all kind of mods and hacks and all i found on the internet. Just nothings works .... I already replaced the wifi antenna and its still the same. I flashed all kind of roms and modems i found for d855 on xda. I really dont know whats wrong with it.

Could it be that the mainboard is dead ? But that could not really be, because all is working fine. Calling, Photos, all sensors, nfc, bluetooths eg. except the wifi. I have did all kind of development test but all is fine. Thats my last try maybe someone can help me here.

Before we start, I am NOT Criticizing this great ROM, I Love it...

Firstly, I bought a 4GB SD Card, which doesn't install App's on it (it does recognize 3990MB) it may just be my memory card is broke before arrival, if anyone has same problems please let me know as if not then i know its my new card...

Secondly, The <<<Left direction Key doesn't work at all! not in txts (moving back letters) and not in the Programs Menu (won't move left to program items)

These are not major problems for me, but though i'd shine some light on my findings....

****Vistar****
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] vlodeck:
That's definitely a hardware problem. Try taking your charmer apart and see whats going on in there. There's a tutorial in wiki.

Could you specify that a little bit more? Secondly, did you format your card card? It shouldnt be 3990MB but somewhere between 3,6-3,7GB.
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] vistar:
thanks for quick reply vlodeck, OK I'll open it up and have a look to see if its plugged in (its a new phone), i have a couple of keypads coming tomorrow too, so i'll try those too if all fails. Now the memory card, after formated to fat16 or fat32 (which i have as default) shows total free memory 3900MB (sorry not 3990MB) I'll tell you tommorow if it works.

Open TWRP and enter it without the password. Head over to Format and swipe the bar, type in YES and format your devcie.

YES YOU WILL LOSE ALL YOUR DATA, but this solves the issue of encrypted recoveries.

Also if possible, get the latest version of TWRP which I believe is 3.0.2.2, from their official website.

Recovery: latest CWM

Thing is i got unfindable bootware/rootkit on the device that keeps up even after flashing a new rom.

I searched the web and xda on flashing everything to get the device totally unmodified again.

Now i got the last Odin and Adb ready but i'm uncertain where to start.

Think i need to flash it all from the bootloader off. and use the 'Nand Erase All' function?

I don't dare to trial-and-error which might brick.

A question i have:

1. Where to start to flash everything from scratch?

2. Can i lock the bootloader again after?

Mechanical Box 6.11.29

I am making one little game and I want to tell you about it. "Mechanical Box" is a hardcore puzzle, which I created while being impressed by "Please, Don't Touch Anything" (it is quite well-known). Imagine: you see a box, a mysterious mechanism. It's been made with only one purpose - to keep safe what's inside. Your task is to hack into the box, find some secret switches, pick the right passwords, solve the puzzles layer by layer.

This won't be easy. The game is not for just casual players, I did my best to create everything (according to the game rules, of course) in such a way, that any player in particular wouldn't be able to open the box. There are no hints or clues which you can buy. There are no free-to-play no-brainers, only hardcore!

Hi Guys just had my XL battery die.

Connected USB charger cable to PC and a part of the screen less than the size of a finger tip started to flash like an atari.

I then connected the cable to an apple plug and got the same thing.

Eventually I got access to the main charger and after 30mins of charge no luck.

THE PHONE IS DEAD!!

Yes I have insurance and still in my 1st 30days of purchase.

Please note earlier on in the day I had a hammer and the phone in the same hand, as I put them both down on a table the hammer tapped the phone ever so lightly. I am noticing a hairline crack in bottom left corner, same place the screen flashed after it died.

Funny thing is the phone was working perfectly fine until battery died.

Could be a ROM issue or the hammer caused something, OR constant use of bluetooth music today has knackered something.

Then I downloaded an app called remove bloat and started removing files and apps that I thought were junk. Now, There is an APP called VMlite that I like to use when I leave the phone in another room and can log into it through the network. I must have deleted something because now it will not connect to the server without a program on the pc, and I have no idea what I did wrong.
