Fastboot devices. See if you get anything there

If not

1) you are not on the bootloader screen (NOT TWRP)

OR

2)You do not have drivers installed/bad port/bad cable etc.

I've just been sent a replacement Z3C by Sony following water ingress (surprise surprise).

The one they've sent me looks pristine and I'm pleased with it except for this one thing.

When I scroll, swipe, slide or otherwise see animations, they're ever so slightly jittery. It's subtle, but they're not buttery smooth like my other one.

It's best demonstrated using the volume slider:

This my problem Z3C: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-NY0iUv-qI0YmpPbjFmWUZPaDQ

This is a normal Z3C: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-NY0iUv-qI0dmp5S0RmMDA5QUE

General use screen recording: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-NY0iUv-qI0SF9MRERQM0NWU1U/view

I have another Z3C (that I smashed the screen on, but a bluetooth keyboard/mouse works). I can directly compare the two and the new one is definitely worse.

The jittering shows through on screen recordings, so I guess it's not the screen hardware itself.

I also notice the slightly poor FPS on the purple boot animation

I don't have Image Enhancement enabled

I don't have Stamina mode enabled

I've compared Geekbench CPU and GPU benchmarks with my other Z3C and they're pretty much identical

It's a bit annoying when I know it can be better. I also expect it'll fall on deaf ears if I return it to Sony.

Anything I can try?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Depressed T.Bear:
Hi,

We might need some more information. Is your phone on stock ROM / rooted / modified? Do you have plenty apps installed?

If it's all stock and there're no resource hungry apps installed, you can try the following:

// before doing anything: Backup. Backup.

Backup

. I'm not responsible for any lost data.

1) Enable developer options, activate developer options, go to 'hardware accelerated rendering' (I don't know if it's correct translated from German to English), enable 'force GPU-Rendering'. See if it helps.

2) If that doesn't work, factory reset your phone.

2.1) Try a debloat script to get rid of some preinstalled apps (increases performance and battery life as well)

3) If that doesn't work, flash a 'clean' stock ROM with flashtool

Hello.

I recently came into possession of an LG G5 Android phone, T-Mobile variant H830. I was planning to use it for software development, and I was wondering if there's a way to get it to connect to the internet using my ADSL connection. I'm fairly new to the wonderful world of Android, so please bear with me.

I realize Wi-Fi is the path of least resistance... but it's not the best option in this particular house and I have a fine Ethernet network just sitting there waiting to be used. Also, my old Windows Phone (ducks) is able to use it just fine.

I have a USB type C hub (a Microsoft HD-500 display dock) and a small collection of USB to Ethernet adapters (Realtek RTL8153, ASIX AX8872B). Unfortunately, the LG G5 has no interest in recognizing any of them.

I've also played around with reverse tethering to my PC, but apparently it requires root access to even work, and even after that it doesn't even work very well.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make this work? Should I be looking into flashing LineageOS? Or maybe I just have the wrong phone?

Thanks.
[LG G5 Accessories] Keynesian:
Today's progress: I played with an app called ReverseTethering, which works by establishing a VPN connection to its host PC over an ADB-controlled USB pipe. Most apps seem fine with it. However, the Google Play Store insists on using Wi-Fi to download apps and won't recognize a reverse-tethered connection. It does resume in-process downloads over the connection, but won't initiate new ones. My conclusion is that this is an app bug, and that it is checking for Wi-Fi when it really should simply be checking for a valid connection.

There's an app called Fake Wifi that will apparently hack apps into thinking their connection is over Wi-Fi when it's not. However, this app needs a framework that requires a rooted device. So, back to square one.

(NB: I'd prefer not to root my device for security reasons.)
[LG G5 Accessories] Keynesian:
Today's progress: connecting a Sharkk UH-SKRJ11 (RealTek RTL8153 chipset) directly to the phone using a USB C-to-A adapter works. A couple of apps seem iffy about it, including the Google Maps offline downloader, but the Google Play Store and the LG updater work. So this is probably as good as it gets without major surgery.

This suggests that the problem was in fact the Microsoft HD-500 display dock. It would charge the phone, but the phone didn't seem to recognize it as a USB hub.

Does anyone have a suggestion for a USB Type C hub that works with this phone? Ideally I'd like to use Ethernet and charge at the same time.
[LG G5 Accessories] halomademeapc:
Hello,

I work on the desktop team at a company and we started using Dell's DW-15 USB-C docks since Dell is phasing out the E-port. Out of curiosity, I plugged my phone into one a couple of months ago and everything but the display output works. We also have Dell 96NPS USB-C to Ethernet adapters that work fine with the G5.
[LG G5 Accessories] askermk2000:
I have this here.

Bought from eBay. Works on both G5 and V20. Should work on any phone that supports SlimPort.

I have connected it to the phone with display and various peripherals. Did not try ethernet dongle though.

I'm a bit puzzled that the Microsoft dock did not function right. I though that too was simply a display/slim-port design. Or maybe it's only the hub/otg functionality that's unavailable?
[LG G5 Accessories] Keynesian:
[MENTION=6814590]askermk2000[/MENTION]: thanks for the note. Any idea what the model number is on that device?

The Microsoft dock situation is quite odd. Before fully patching the OS (the phone arrived with the March security patch, I think) it wouldn't see anything at all on the dock (which has a Surface Ethernet Adapter aka RTL8153 plugged in). After patching, it suddenly started working, and working fine. Then after patching up to latest, it sort of half-works. It connects and data flows, but the phone pops a "Connecting" message for a minute every so often, as if it were pulling a new DHCP address or something. When connected directly to the Ethernet adapter, things work fine.

(And when I say fine, I mean mostly fine. Every now and then I plug in the adapter and nothing works. Disconnecting and reconnecting sometimes works. Changing USB connection settings sometimes works. Sometimes rebooting works. <shrug>)
[LG G5 Accessories] askermk2000:
[MENTION=8651822]Keynesian[/MENTION]

I'm sorry but there is not a single marking on that thing. A truly generic device.

That exact one seems to have become rare now. This looks like the successor, though it has one less usb port than mine.

Here's a listing of mine.

There are many generic types, with or without hdmi, one or more usb etc

One option with aluminum housing, 1 usb 1 hdmi and usb-c power input should cost no more than about $10

I think I got mine for around that (which is a more expensive model), but I got lucky and found a lonely expiring auction. Saved maybe $20

Weird about that dock of yours. Hopefully you'll have better experience with another one.

If I had an ethernet dongle I'd try to confirm if it works with or without the dock on my H850, but that could also depend on the type of chipset and driver used (and LG's flavor of the month it seems).

Cant install it on RR 4.5

"this packages conflicts with existing package by same name"
[Galaxy Grand Prime Themes and Apps] tasnim_tamim:
Replace it with your default launcher. I think it's Launcher3. Replacing should work because the both of them have same package signature.
[Galaxy Grand Prime Themes and Apps] snthe:
I dont get what u mean bro..

What is launcher3? And how to replace it?
[Galaxy Grand Prime Themes and Apps] MUELAJE:
This problem is this:

You have the old pixel launcher installed by defect,

You need uninstall it, then install the pixel launcher 2.
[Galaxy Grand Prime Themes and Apps] tasnim_tamim:
The stock launcher that is preinstalled on the ROM. You have to replace it with the Pixel 2 Launcher. I am not sure about RR but on my AEX the stock launcher is Launcher3. Maybe RR is also running Launcher3 as most of the AOSP is bundled with it. So replace it from

/system/app/Launcher3.

Thank u both of u..

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] User422:
Hey guys,

I wanted to ask if there is a benefit in having 8gb of ram instead of 6? Is it even possible to use that much on a phone?

All I've read till now was that developers could fill it with something but I can't think of anything. So I'm just asking out of curiosity.

I don't want a comparison of the 6 and 8 gig RAM versions of the OP5. It's really just about the 8gigs of RAM.

Thanks in advance :)
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Yousvel:
OP5 is so far one of the fastest phone you can ever get. You can't make it lag. :) I hope I answer even a slight part of your question.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Rhoban:
I don't think the phone being fast is related to the amount of RAM.

Apps will eventually start consuming more resources and 8GB RAM will become a necessity in the future.

You can survive with 2 too, but 4 seems to be the standard now; next year 6 and in about 2-3 years 8.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] OcazPrime:
Just depends on how well the phone can manage its own memory. But by default some stuff like mobile games take a lot of ram. Upwards to 400-600mbs of ram for just one app. Maybe just cut down on those or just accept that your device cannot keep everything in memory. Its ok to reload apps that are insanely big.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] User422:
Like I had already mentioned. It wasn't about the phone.

I do have an OP5 myself ^^

It was really just about the huge amount of RAM

But thanks for your answer anyway ^^
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] User422:
I've heard that there are minimal difference between the two versions of the phone.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Rhoban:
RAM is the only difference. Multitasking is better on the 8GB model though.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] oVeRdOsE.:
you phone will suffer from low cpu speed before ''needing'' 8gb of ram for 1 single operation.

Having multiple app running in the background makes the experience more fun, but the phone loads app fast enough anyway.

In fact, I'm using greenify, so no need of 8gb.

And a lot of cell phone user will change their phone before it will come slow, or really need 8gb. see pixel2 thread, a lot of people thinking about changing to pixel, what a waste...
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] WaxysDargle:
more RAM = less loading.

this saves you time because the app stays loaded in RAM (no processing). this saves battery because the processor isn't having to work every time you open it. with 8GB, i almost never close apps.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] xnes:
It is easy to say that the more RAM you have, more the OS will use it, and this will make it more dynamic, therefore faster. But I think this is not perceptible for the user.

I have a 8 GB version and the device gets 5GB RAM to boot up... this would not happen in a 4GB RAM of course but this extra RAM usage do not reflect to more speed in a way you can see it...

The RAM management is more affected actually by the SO itself. I never use more than 7.5 GB RAM but my games never stay in memory for more than a day. I think OOS shuts them down after 24 hours not being used.....

This is a much more technical perception of how the device handle 8GB. I think its more a future proof quality then a advantage in todays processing.

Thanks a lot.

I plan to use your method.

Can I change the Chinese version (VTR-AL00) to VTR-L29 version in this way?
[Huawei P10 Guides, News, & Discussion] LwannaCM:
I´m not 100% sure, but in my opionion your VTR-AL00 (should be the china version with playstore) has exactly the same hardware as the VTR-L29. Be sure to backup you system or at least only your oeminfo.

In case you rebranding doesn´t function you can revert back to your orginal version via TWRP. Maybe you should try the 636 instead of the 432, depending on your location.

[Huawei P10 Guides, News, & Discussion] LwannaCM:
Really sure, think about it twice, most people want rebrand their phone to L09 or L29. I makes no sense to rebrand to VTR-L00, the only advantage i see, is that you get updates earlier, but in fact the other variants get really often updates too.

People with VTR-L00 bought their device cheap in china and want to rebrand because of the missing playstore, or thr missing LTE bands.

Here you can see the differences between the variants:

Actually in VTR-AL00 you have more features and the updates are faster. Moreover, you can install play store :)

By the way in case I don't like it, I can go back to European version. But at the moment I want to try VTR-AL00!

Be sure to stick exactly to the steps! After its finished wait at least 15min.

If the device won´t reboot itself, you have to switch it off and maybe make a low level reset via orginal recovery, if you´re stuck in a boot loop.
