[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] anl2304:
Exactly! If they had done something to differentiate it from the S8. More RAM, storage, something, then they could justify the higher price point. There just is not a compelling reason to opt for the V30 over the S8/S8 plus. Forget fanboys, such as myself. If the average consumer's options are a S8 at significant cost savings or a V30 priced "too high," I am guessing they would opt for the S8. Cameras are about the same. Discounting the curved edges and how each treats it, the displays are about the same. Battery life about the same (Probably better on the S8 plus, while the V30 will be better than the S8). Audio capabilities are better on the V30. Fingerprint sensor is better placed on the V30. S8 has samsung pay and iris scanner....

As much as I like LG, if I were asked, I would recommend the S8 based on value for the (reduced) price. Or wait a month or so for the price to drop.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
THAT.

I'm already waiting for the carrier unlocked version, which will come out 5 or 6 weeks after the U.S. carrier branded versions.

So, I wait an extra month and probably save couple hundred dollars.

I'll still have it by Christmas.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] 20degrees:
Couple hundred? 6 weeks after release? Maybe I should wait and go that route.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
U.S. carriers will probably get it first part of October. I'm predicting by October 10, if LG keeps the same timeline as the G6.

Then carrier unlocked version would be by November 14.

A month AFTER that you'll see eBay dealers dropping price to sell. I'm just saying, based on past history, you'll see a drop in price for an LG phone.

Right now, NEW unlocked 32 GB LG G6 from various dealers going for less than $400 on eBay with free shipping.

Whereas AT&T is still selling 32GB LG G6 for $585.

In South Korea, the LG V30 is selling for about $850. That's $100 more than the "rumored" U.S. price ($750), which is only rumored due to some number mentioned in some contest rules... Don't be surprised if the carriers try to charge $800-$850 for this phone.

But the price should quickly drop in the weeks after the carrier unlocked version is released. I think $650 is a very realistic price by mid-December.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] jhill110:
Hope you're right.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Amd4life:
Yep, I'll wait for the unlocked US998, post price drop. It would be awesome if LG would do a trade in, or loyalty pre-order upgrade like Samsung.

I'm getting rather impatient though, and I might just buy a s8plus in the interim.

Love my unlocked G6, buy I would prefer the quad dac and the new OLED screen.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] NIKKOTUASON:
Will the 998 be the unlocked version?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Yes, LG V30 U.S. carrier unlocked version.

But with the LG G6 US997 (carrier unlocked version), it was six more weeks AFTER release (which was 5 weeks after the U.S. carrier versions) before LG actually added it to the official bootloader unlock list. I'm not going to buy until the LG V30 US998 is on LG bootloader unlock list.

If they replicate the same amount of time of the LG G6 for the LG V30, from global announcement to when carrier unlocked versions actually are added to the bootloader unlock list, that's DECEMBER 31, 2017.

So, I'll buy it the day it gets root. Might be first week of 2018, but I'm not buying a phone I can't root from DAY 1.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] NIKKOTUASON:
That is quite a long wait. But then again I'm still waiting on my Note7 refund cheque to arrive.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Well, by first week of January 2018 the price will have dropped! ;)

Depends on how fast LG adds it to the bootloader unlock list and we get root...
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] RojasTKD:
I'm counting on it. ;)

[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] minio.cz:
Hi I just found out quite disappointing thing, that I have a lot of hot pixels on rear camera. They are best visible when shooting at 1080p something dark (as in attached picture), but they sometimes appear on photos too. And they are persistent not just shot noise :/. Does anyone have the same problem or am I the only one? Any idea if that could be fixed without sending it to repair?
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] venugopalu007:
Is there any marks on back glass?

Use deo and smooth cloth to clean the glass once and see.
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] minio.cz:
Sadly cleaning does not help.
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] venugopalu007:
:(:( Oh bad.
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] adriansticoid:
This is clearly a hardware problem. Better have it replaced.
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] venugopalu007:
Better to move faster before replacement ends.
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] minio.cz:
I hoped that there could be a way, because it is actually software problem as every camera has these, but they are just mapped out.

So unroot, relock and send it for repair/replacement. :(
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] adriansticoid:
Regardless being a software problem, you should still opt for replacement.
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] sniperlife:D:
So is it replaced?
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] gopinaidu77:
If he got new one, it is a miracle, honor takes time.
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] minio.cz:
No. I found out about pixels after the return window. So as it still was under the warranty I sent it to service and they sent it back, that they were not able to replicate the issue and that warranty is void because bootloader has been unlocked. But since that I do not see the dead pixels, so we will see.
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] venugopalu007:
Now no dead pixels exist right??
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] minio.cz:
Looks like that.
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] venugopalu007:

[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] venugopalu007:

[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] gopinaidu77:
Oh. Dead pixels are caused by camera or else display?
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] venugopalu007:
While shooting using camera , he got some areas with dead pixels.

[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Swatto86:
Good Afternoon,

I took my Pixel C to a CEX store a few months back, just turned it on and they set a PIN and I cannot get it to boot. I tried going into recovery mode to factory reset but get 'no command'. The bootloader is locked and it looks like USB debugging is disabled because I cannot get my computer to recognize it despite having adb/fastboot installed and the Google USB drivers.

Have you any ideas about how I can fix this please? I can get into fastboot mode on the device but cannot get WIndows to recognise it is there.
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Swatto86:
This is now resolved, I had to add the device ID to android_winusb.inf - fastboot then recognised the device and I could perform a bootloader unlock which in-turn erased the tablet and allowed me back in.

Just go to Settings and try to update. (Just don't do it more frequently than once every 24 hours, or you'll be told that the phone is up to date.)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] razieltov:
On the Galaxy S7 phones in the US the hardware was the same and you could flash other carriers firmware on the phone when you take the phone to another carrier. Do you think you could do that with the Note 8. I see that the unlocked Note 8 is $30 cheaper than the carrier versions. If I can save $30 bucks that would be awesome.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] lee_alkureishi:
Hi everyone,

I have a note 5 on T-Mobile in the US. I love the phone, and see little reason to upgrade to the note 8 until the price drops a bit.

The only issue I have with the 5 is the lack of SD storage. I like to keep my ebook PDF library with me, which far exceeds the capacity of the phone. I've worked around it by keeping most of my PDFs on Google drive, which works reasonably well. But, I have quite a few PDFs which are a few hundred MB in size, which Google drive doesn't allow previewing without first downloading.

Is anyone aware of a better cloud solution for reading/previewing large PDFs?

Or, other workarounds people have come up with to circumvent storage space issues on the note 5? As far as I can tell, there are no storage cases available. I'm aware of micro USB flash disks, but would like to know if there are alternatives.

Thanks,

Lee

[Touch Cruise Accessories] JulianL:
If you really want to see a concept to blow your mind then look at this: http://www.infrablue.co.uk/index.php?a=irmabluetooth

These solutions have been available for Palm devices for years (at least 5 years) and the one I linked to above looks quite old and out of date. I can't understand why someone big hasn't taken up this concept and done it really well e.g. one of the big projector manufacturers or a big-name computer peripheral manufacturer like Logitech or Microsoft's hardware division.

The infrablue device looks dated (only SVGA resolution) and, although it's smaller than it looks in the pictures, I suspect that with today's technology it could be made no bigger then the Touch Cruise itself. It's also pretty ugly.

I would just love a solution like the above at 1024 x 768 resolution, about the size of a cigarette packet, and drivable directly from Mobile PowerPoint. As long as you could map the buttons appropriately then you could hold your TC upside down in your hand (i.e. Dpad at the top) and be able to cycle through your presentation just like a TV weather presenter holding the clicker below their waist.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kinnay999:
Hi, last year i got an Xperia Z with a broken screen (not the whole screen, only the tactile part of it)and i wanted to repare it to make it my maine phone.

Last time i checked, before replacing the screen, it turn on succesfully and i could see the device with Sony Pc companion.

Now that i finally got the time and the spare part, i decided to change the whole screen and put the device back together.

When i was finished, i plugged the device on the wall and nothing happend, i guess it was because the batterie was flat but letting the phone to charge a whole 48 hours and still nothing...

Maybe it was the usb port on the phone so i got myself a Dock to charge the phone but still the same problem, then i thought it might be the battery so i got a new one and the clossest that i get to a sign of life by the device was a red LED light, for about 15 seconde then nothing, just the usual 3 red LED blinks to tell me the battery is flat (but it wont charge) and it won't get recognized by Pc companion anymore neither...

Do you have any advices or clues about what went wrong and if i could fix anything ?

You will need T70N0KXXARUEF01803.zip and T70N0KEXAREXX01803.zip from the drop box

This process will wipe EVERYTHING from the phones. Just a fair warning/heads up

Pop these two files onto the phone(s), into the downloads folder

Power off the device(s)

Hold the scan button (bottom button on left side of phone) and power button down at the same time

When the phone vibrates release the buttons

You will now be in the recovery mode window

Use the volume buttons to move up and down through the menu

Button on left side to select

Select load from internal storage, navigate to the downloads folder

Select T70N0KXXARUEF01803.zip wait for it to finish

Then navigate back to the folder and select T70N0KEXAREXX01803.zip

then select reboot system now, the reboot will take some time.

You'll have a clean factory reset with google play store and google services and kit kat version 4.4.3
