[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShinigamiHD:
I recently rooted my LG G3 Stylus. One of the first things I did was download customization applications such as gravitybox and boot animations. However only some of the many options in gravitybox actually worked on my phone. The majority of the settings did not alter how my phone looked when I changed them. Only a few options actually worked for me such as changing the color of battery percentage while charging other status bar settings. I tried to goto the notifcations and lockscreen options but almost all of them didn't work. I didn't bother trying options that came after. When I installed a boot animation it would not show up unless it relatively long because my phone runs the brand LG G3 Life's Good powered by Android logo before all the boot animation's I've installed. I've tried to do it manually by moving the bootanimation.zip file into /system/media but I cannot get rid of the LG G3 logo. I've even looked to see if there a bootanimation.zip in /data/local because I've read that the phone executes bootanimations from that directory before the /ststem/media but there was no zip file there. I've also tried to enable the advanced power menu but my stock power menu would always show up displaying only power off, power off and restart, and turn on airplane mode. I've used three different applications to try and enable the power menu but none of them have worked.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

So I bought some full adhesive glass protector samples to give them a try after seeing another post. Here are some pictures of it installed on a S8 plus. Not really case friendly depending on your case. It did work well with my case.

The edges have a regular full adhesive but the remainder of the center screen has some type of low tac nano adhesive. When you touch it, you can feel a texture but not really super sticky. Touch sensitivity is good.

A case friendly one would also be nice, or one that fits the UAG
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] Ricey:
From the pictures overheard of the screen are those air bubbles, fingerprints, or just because of the camera shot? What I'm worried about with this type of protector is that the adhesive on the rest of the protector isn't strong enough so some parts might lift up from the screen, which would look like air bubbles or oil slicks.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] fusiondynamics:
No bubbles, might be from camera.

I have los14.1 now but want to go to either 5.1.1 or 6.0.1 . I found an aosp 5.1.1 rom for the device though it had many issues. So anyone using it, can you please tell me if it's stable and what's working and not working as of now. And which ROM would be better? Stock 6.0.1 or aosp 5.1.1.

Also performance wise which one better? Stock 5.0.2|5.1.1|6.0.1??
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bozinsky73:
Hi, I ve just downgraded to 5.1.1 coming from Los 14.1

Have been on 6.0 too and went back to experiment a OTA update (from LL to MM)

Have to say that 5.1.1 is fast and smooth, like no other. both 6 and 7.1.2 custom ROMs.

I will stay there since I don't find a new reason to upgrade...
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deepjyoti30:
I too downloaded the stock 5.1.1 firmware and will flash it in no time. Thanks for the reply.
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bozinsky73:
Everything works as expected in 5.1.1 and that is very relaxing: wifi, bluetooth, motodisplay and notification, no forcecloses or crash, no random reboot.

Stock softwares, with last updates from PlayStore, are also very smooth.
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deepjyoti30:
Thanks man. Appreciate a lot. Will try and report.
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deepjyoti30:
Hey, i installed it through fastboot but it is stuck on unlocked logo. Now i relocked it but same issue. Any help?
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bozinsky73:
Did you flashed all the system files?

Lockin the bootloader isn't necessary or rilevant in my opinion.

Last question.. which os where you at when firstly rooted the phone? Sometimes Android is hard to downgrade..
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deepjyoti30:
Was in lineage os.
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deepjyoti30:
If i flash partition (gpt.bin) i get an error. Preflash validation failed.

Failed(remote failure)
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bozinsky73:
Not sure but you probably need to flash 6.0, the last original os available.. I rooted when phone was 5.0.2 and actually I can't flash that version but higers (5.1.1 or 6) only
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deepjyoti30:
I unlocked and flashed los when i was in 6.0 damn man. It's irritating.

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kilroy5150:
I've got an N920t and i would love to put a simple 1st boot screen and add my company name and number to it so, if it's stolen, the average person won't have a CLUE how to get rid of the logo.

I would also like to be able to change a cool animated GIF into the animation that pops up after the initial boot.

Lastly, i would like a decent shut-down logo.

I've downloaded Samsung's theme editor and it looks like i was created for the "yesterday" phones. I know where the qmg files are in the system/media.

I just don't know 1) The screen dimensions 2) the conversion process of whatever to qmg. 3) whatever else i may have missed.

Can anyone help?
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrMike2182:
Samsung Theme's have nothing to do with what you want to accomplish.. It sounds to me like you don't fully understand what's involved with trying to do what you're asking for.. First of all you'll have to root the phone possibly voiding it's warranty just to get to the files you'd have to replace to begin with and if you don't fully understand what you're trying to do you could possibly turn your phone into a paperweight! You might want to do some research before trying to do what you're asking for..
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kilroy5150:
Yeah dude, don't over think it. I'm way way way WAY past a simple rooting. I've installed 100s of roms just not messed with themes very much beyond the occasional bootanimation.zip placement.

But, a piece of advice, next time just say "i don't know" because you really didn't answer my question, you were about as far away from what i asked for as an answer could get. I explained that i checked out the Samsung theme editor, not that i expected it to work. It was just a step i went through.

If i didn't know anything about theming, at all, i wouldn't know about the extension or placement area i mentioned and since you didn't really give any answer of note (beyond a generic warning that's been in every root and rom since the beginning of time) i'm thinking you don't either...

Please, don't give your idea of "help" any further.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrMike2182:
Then maybe you should have thought more about what you were saying in your first post and possibly included some other information about how smart you are but yet you can't figure out what the screen dimensions for the phone are? But I stand by what I said Samsungs Theme's having nothing to do with the boot animation at all.. And if you're so great at flashing roms.. Uh wow "claps" that's taking others work and dropping it on to an SD and tapping flash.. SO so hard!! Try building your own rom and kernel from scratch! Since you wanted to act all tough I'm not even going to give you the answer and yes I damn well do know the answer I've been a developer since way back in the day when WebTVs were the thing! And if this is how you're going to act towards developers of other people on here, then don't expect much help now! I'm sure you can figure it out Mr 100s of rom flashes!
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kilroy5150:
Say it with me one more time, just so you realize it ..... "You don't know"....You can wax and waste people's time ALL day long with your big talk but the straight truth is:

If you would have had the answer, you would have posted it.

I already got it, from someone who actually could answer the question. "He" didn't have any trouble with my request, at all, and had it summed up in a small paragraph.

So i guess that makes you the "special" person here...

Don't bother wasting space with a reply, "unsubscribe" was created for a-holes like you wanna talk big but can't come up with the answer. But then again people like you probably get off on posting to yourself anyway.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrMike2182:
Lol.. You aren't getting under my skin little man.. I can reply wherever I want!! This isn't YouTube where you tap unsubscribe lmfao!!! You only have less than 50 post and you're going to come to xda with your mister know it all attitude and tell me what I do and don't know?! I have the answer to what you want to do and it's definitely in /system/media but good luck getting it to work (the right way).

If you would have replied nicely and asked nicely like other people on here do I would have showed you how to convert the files you and other stuff you needed but not interested now.. And if you think I'm so dumb and don't know nothing, I just wrote an entire page and a half just for the Galaxy S6 owners to root their phones! And Why? Because someone asked nicely!!

1) This conversation is so petty I'm not even sure why I'm responding to it.

2) Creating a boot animation for Samsung has EVERYTHING to do with Samsung Theme Designer.

3) Here is my tutorial for this.

4) Ignore the fact that the program looks old school. If you read my tutorial you'll see how that doesn't matter at all.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kilroy5150:
Well, i appreciate a straight-forward answer.

I reacted to the other guy the way i did because of his condescending attitude and the fact that he obviously didn't know but went out of his way to give a false impression of "knowledge" in the matter. Personally, i can't stand people who answer with useless information, have an attitude, and waste my time trying to "look" big...i appreciate you "not" being that kind of person.

You're right, it's petty, but sometimes it's necessary because (over the years) i've noticed these forums have become a home for "some" who seem to devote time to not giving people a straight answer and have a superiority complex doing it. Also, the douche bag had the arrogance to "label" me because i didn't post a lot on the forums, probably the biggest ignorance here to assume a person isn't knowledgeable about anything because they don't make a lot of noise in the forums.

It's like i've said from the jump....the guy who knows simply gives the straight answer.

Since that's what i really needed i'll just unsub the thread so i don't have to deal with him spouting any further.

Again, thanks.

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kilroy5150:
Yeah, i had some luck with Odin based flashing of the initial boot screen but haven't had a lot of time to play around with it. I just enjoy customizing the phone to the point to where (if anyone steals it) there's no doubt it's mine. I can walk in and say "It does this on boot" without even looking and i've done that in the past and it's worked out great with reclaiming a stolen phone. The more customized you make it, the harder it is for the pawn-shop owner to argue it's not yours (and they WILL try). I've had to bring the authorities in. "Noble" is not a word that most pawn-shop owners seem to know ;)

It's just odd how these phones change their structure so much that general "boot animation" apps have no effect on them at all.

Thanks for the info.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mainmast2:
The easiest way I've found is RomToolbox pro.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kilroy5150:
Yup, had it for a long time. But it seems to have no effect on my phone since i got Nougat. In fact, "none" of the usual apps seem to work. Must be a new set of rules. The only ways i've seen them change are by Odin and that rom installer (Aroma, isn't it?) that everyone is so fond of.

Huh, I haven't changed mine since switching to nougat. The custom logo hasn't changed from before the upgrade. Thanks for the info.

hear Ye, hear Ye...

people of XDAdevForum!

please answer one simple question? aren't You all trying to act more dramatic than there is actually necessary?

please correct me if I am wrong, but is there a majority of You regular gamers?

come on. let's be honest. this device is great. a real power house. period.

complaining about video? coreplayer is about to release special qtv version of their player ANY MINUTE now...

complaining about camera? nothing can be done. hardware is limited and camera is just an additional option anyway.

3D gaming? ... ... dunno what to say. real game loving freaks owns psp from day one. (or since last sale...)

wait till cp for kaiser, opera mobile 9 and windows mobile 6.1 will be released. then we will talk.

this device main purpose is communication and nothing can beat it at it.

to clarify- I am not a HTC agent or whatever.

I'm just simply getting tired of overreacting and all the hate against HTC. I never heard of people talking about taking a dump on nokia's lawn cuz of crappy gps in N95.

don't get me wrong- I would be over the moon with drivers sorted, but please... give those guys a break. they actually never reffered to kaiser as a gaming device like nokia does on it's n series. I've bought my Vario III because it is succesor to my previous Vario II. gps integrated, 3meg cam (not that bad in day light and soft from polaris) tilting keyboard and the list goes on...

Yes. I am happy.

... and I love this community, who once again is showing, that wm is great sys after all and it can be customised, just how we like it.

sorry for that wall of txt, but I had it comming.

Go and try to scroll in your windows folder with file explorer. Or use TomTom to show you the navigated route. Enjoy.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gabriel31337:
To be honest, it's not about gaming at all. Not about video playing at all. It's about scrolling in IE, in file explorer, smooth display in TomTom, in Camera. These operation on older devices are much more smoother comparing to this brick. Havent you seen the videos? Dear HTC agent? :confused:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] xtin:
The point is, that our devices seriously underperform compared to older device due to a lack of drivers (!). This means we've been sold devices that look as if they'd outperform older devices from the spec, but don't when it comes to reality - and it's not because the hardware is not there or anything, it's merely because a driver has not been delivered.

That's like you buy a cool computer advertised with a state-of-the-art DX10 Graphicscard which is deactivated due to a lack of drivers and all the rendering is done by the crappy onboard chip. Wouldn't like it would you?*

* Analogy is somwhat impaired as you can always just get drivers for the Card, but still....

I would say something but I will respect the Title of this thread.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] MikeChannon:
Now I'm begining to wonder what's going on here!!!!!!!

I have no scrolling issues in windows, or viewing route in Tomtom.

I also have very few videos that don't play snoothly either.

SO and this may be an important observation. Is there a proportion of devices out there that are not working properly (possible ROM or other software setup - maybe even a hardware problem) and that others DO NOT show these problems.

On mine I simply cannot see the slowness others report. Mine is lag free and resposive. I saw some posts about the screen rotate times being slow, but mine is virtually instant.

Maybe this is what we should establish. Is it only some devices that are having problems.Compared to my 8525 my speeds are fantastic.

I notice that this odd mixture of some folks saying they have excellent speed and smooth loading and performance compared to others who seem to find the opposite - is apparent on several other PDA sites too.

Mike

EDIT: Just saw the post below. Again I have not noticed the camera being slow (except when really dark). Taking videos I dont do much of but let's say compared to TyTn it is about the same.

I will say I had a slow scroll in PIE but that was solved with the installation of the older PIE dll.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kpilcher:
Happy? No!

I don't watch movies or play graphics intensive games. However I do use my phone as a PDA and take pictures and small videos and suck. Try scrolling anything, try taking a picture or small video of your kids. Then come back and tell me how happy you are.

Seems that either you don't actually have a Kaiser or you only use it as a phone.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] juiceppc:
Lately the camera performance on the Kaiser is really frustrating. It's almost unusable in low'ish light. With video or stills. Sure it's been like this the whole time but lately I've really been frustrated. I would like to use the camera.

To all the people who say a camera on a phone is not important I say go back in your cave. It's 2008 BTW and technology is surpassing you, get out of the way.

Sorry I'm done. Let's not trash this thread since it's call "Happy User Thread". There are alot of other threads we can do that in. As much as it's going to urk us to know that non power users will be posting in this thread oblivious to what is possible.

The point I'm trying to establish is whether it is only some devices that are showing these problems. I saw the OP being dismissed as being inexperienced BUT maybe these problems are NOT universal.

Mike
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] juiceppc:
Maybe it is but I'm on my 3rd ROM, all different and the same problems(particularly the camera) have followed. Could be a bad batch I guess. Assuming your camera is performing "good" in low light. Can you provide a video to shut us all up?

So why do we have these sticky threads, web pages, reviews, comparisons and many more? Because two of us are experiencing some problems?

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] MikeChannon:
For all I know it may be 80% of users who have these problems. I don't in any major way or anything that by changing settings has not been fixed. I'm not trying to dismiss the issues you and possibly many others have, but it may have a bearing on the causes. Perhaps there are hardware flaws for which no amount of ROM changing will solve matters.

Mike
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gabriel31337:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ladytoast:
I bought my TYTN II in Australia about 3 months ago and the screen redraws are abysmal, the camera is useless in anything less than perfect light. From what I have read every TYTN II is the same, depending on what your expectation is I suppose.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Steve-C:
Me too Mike, my experience seems to follow yours. I love my little Kaiser, its a great little device, does all I ask of it, and I'm really pleased with the over all package.

And before others jump in and propose I'm a novice too, my first PDA phone was a Nokia 9000 Communicator, bought years ago. Back then, mods weren't flashing ROM's, or installing CAB's, it was done through programming, and DOS (remember that?) level commands. Or to put it another way, imagine that every tweak etc on the Kaiser had to be done via regedit. So novice, no. Happy user, yes.

I wonder if there are just some units out there that are badly made? Maybe HTC has more 'Friday' phones than most...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] princeasi:
c'mon now, what are you talking about The tilt is about a half a step backwards from the 8525. Do the comparisons yourself, from playing movie files, video recording, picture taking in limited lighting, and the graphical redrawing of the ui itself! there's no way in hell should my ipaq Hw6515 out perform the tilt in any of these aspects! The tilt is suppose to be an upgrade from the 8525, but from the performance of it, it's not!
