[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Gabbbbbbb:
Lens quality usually entails sharpness & optical defects, or the lack thereof. Pretty much all auto focus systems struggle in extreme macro range, use manual focus for that!

About different regions getting different quality lenses, this is definitively possible. The manufacturing variation of smartphone lenses in general is massive. I don't know about LG, but I know that many Xiaomi phones that are sold unofficially have a lens decentering defect, If the lenses are tested for manufacturing variation they could use the inferior, but still functional units in phones that are meant to sell for a lesser price in a developing country.

The European G6 that I have has great lenses, even the ultra wide lens is really sharp in the center (in raw at least, jpegs are smeared) and there is no noticeable decentering defect on either one.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] romcio47:
Interesting theory, I wonder if it's true but I don't think if anyone will be motivated enough (ordering every version of the phone is somewhat crazy :D) to test this...

Maybe there are different factories that produce lenses or other camera-related equipment? Then the quality checks will of course be different resulting in different photos taken by the final product. We will never know, probably.

However, I'd like to see this article you are telling us about and also see some camera samples if there is a difference.

In the past Samsung had a case where in one of its "S*" model they used different sensors, some phones had Sony's, the rest had Samsung's and there was noticeable difference in favor of the Sony sensor, it produced richer colors, sharper images and overall picture quality was better :)
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] RossTeagan:
I heard similar theories, not only about LG or other smartphones but also in regards to cars and other electronics.

I don't think we will be able to find the proof of such issues, but this issue could be a possibility.

Is it possible to change the whatsapp camera to the default camera.

Or perhaps the path of the whatsapp camera to my DCIM folder?

Hello,

yesterday I quite successfully installed WM6 on my German SDA II. I used the 1010 ROM form this Thread: WM6 for SPV 550 and it was quite effortless. I had to restart mtty for a couple of times but finally it worked and the phone wasn't bricked. Greatest obstacle during the installation phase was to change the language from Chinese to English. ;)

The phone works well, but since I bought it just yesterday I can't compare the OS to the previous one. To me it seems OK.

Until now I encountered some problems while using the phone:

First there is no Java included in the ROM, so I had to install and modify IBM's J9 (had a minor vribra issue with that).

Secondly, I cannot access voice commands, the phone just doesn't do anything.

And finally, t9 annoys me while writing messages. On my other smartphone, a Wm2003SE device, I can use the *-key to cycle through all input modes. This doesn't work with the 1010 ROM, instead it shows me a list of symbols in between which is annoying when you (at least try to) use correct upper and lower case writing.

Regards,

Dirk
[HTC Hurricane] Spades01:
Has anyone a solution for the t9 issue? That's a thing that really bugs me.

Dirk
[HTC Hurricane] lazaj007:
read read read, it was be many times .....
[HTC Hurricane] Spades01:
Don't misunderstand me: I have t9. But on my WM2003 phone I was used to cycle through the options (abc/Abc/ABC/123/t9/T9/T9) by pressing the *-key. This still works for abc and so on but I cannot switch from t9 to T9 because then the same list of Symbols like on the #-key appears, meaning that I have to close the list, hit the key again.

Dirk
[HTC Hurricane] Claw6:
just hold "*" for the list ?
[HTC Hurricane] Spades01:
I was confused by the list. But now I just realized that I have to hit * once more, the list will go away and everything works as expected.

I also talked to the friend of whom I bought the phone and he tells me that it now works *much* faster; e. g. the camera took a while to start, now it's just a blink of the eye.

cu,

Dirk

Hi. Is there a possibility that lg g5 verizon can be rooted ? I am searching almost a year now and theres no root method for lg g5 verizon. Is it possible or impossible to root pls help. :(
[Verizon LG G5 Questions & Answers] TheMadScientist:
I wont say 100% impossible but pretty close if u want a rootable G5 get the tmobile or the internat one. Cant think of the model number.....
[Verizon LG G5 Questions & Answers] cloudash15:
Yeah but t mobile and intl variant has so many issue. Ive tried t mobile but in two days there is a burned screen already and the intl is the gps issue. Verizon variant is the good model for lg g5 i think. After a year using it there no issue at all. Thank you i hope 2018 will be the year for the lg g5 verizon root. I think im gonna wait im not losing hope
[Verizon LG G5 Questions & Answers] TheMadScientist:
There will not be any root for this unless a bootloader unlock is found. Also u didnt get screen burn but image retention. Which mine get randomly real bad. Also gps does not work on mine. If you want root get a new device
[Verizon LG G5 Questions & Answers] TheMadScientist:
The g4s dont have root yet. Almost what 2 3 years later. Its not gonna happen for a long long time.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] jpinoy:
Does anyone have a Gear S3(AT&T LTE version) and got it to work with NumberSync on their International Note 8(SM-N950F)? AT&T chat seems to have no clue as to why it won't work(I'm basically thinking since it's an international version and not branded At&T), but the reps can't confirm that. They just say buy a new device that is NumberSync capable, but when I ask them which phones are those, they can't give me an answer.. :rolleyes:

They thought it was my IMEI, which at the AT&T store, they had to spoof the IMEI from my Moto X Pure Style to get the 4G/LTE to work correctly.

It would just be great to have the NumberSync to work, but I have no problems with the Bluetooth connection for now.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] neopolotin75:
Have you tried reseting the watch?Numbersync works in part with the stock messaging app. AT&T advanced messaging syncs your messages to the server and then it gets forwarded to your Gear. For numbersync to work on the international version you will most likely need to odin the AT&T stock image since it wont have the Advance messaging or try installing the advance messaging files. I've had my fair share of numbersync issues but eventually it got better with my S3/S8+ and now Note 8.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] jpinoy:
Hmmm... I see you have a US version of the Note 8, so you're probably in a better situation than I am atm. My Note 8 on my account only shows up as unknown device. I haven't been on this page as much since rooting my phone, so I'll follow up on the CSC flashing or ODIN AT&T image, if that's possible now. I'll look for Advance messaging as well. I know the Gear S3 still shows that when not in bluetooth or Wi-FI, it shows remotely connected, I still get notifications of miss calls from my phone, so it's sending me notifications in that sense, limited...

Thanks for the mentioned options, I'll look into them.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] -Epix-:
I tried to access NumberSync through my account but it says note 8 not compatible
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] adenault:

Edited to remove LG Setup Wizard from the list. Removing LG Setup Wizard kills the Always On Display.

OK,these are the apps / services that I deleted using this procedure. I based my selections off of Google searches that turned up lists for previous LG phones. I had to perform a full system reset after I made the mistake of deleting a contact sync. For now, the only one I have any concern over is the LG Setup Wizard, but so far, so good. Obviously, I'll update if I run into a problem caused by any of these missing.

Removing LG Weather service will disable lockscreen weather animations.

I see other stuff on there like Caller ID that's very useful, unless that's something you don't use?

Just a general statement...

Not sure why people buy premium phones then want to remove most of the premium features? It's their phone, but I don't understand.

I'm only saying this because lots of people remove stuff willy nilly, then ask "Hey, why doesn't abc work?" Because of stuff they removed!

I'm not talking about things like the NFL app, obviously.

[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] R3DP0IS0N:
Requirements for this to work.

1. You need to be on emui 4.1/4.0 before hand

If not you can rollback. downloads and instructions

Are on huawei website (you do need a sd card to do this)

2. A computer with Huawei update extractor and adb tools

3.unlocked bootloader (rolling back locks it again)

4. Twrp recovery from the website not the Chinese method. (Twrp website version has bugs which is important)

5. Es file explorer already installed with root permissions on (even though you're not rooted)

FOR PEOPLE WHO STAYED ON EMUI 4.0

For everyone else on emui 5.0 rollback to emui 4.0 unlock the bootloader and flash twrp threw adb and. Follow the guide after you done that.

If you stayed on emui 4.0 for root permissions good for you . You have a shortcut all you need to do is flash twrp from their website and download the emui 4.0 firmware from Huawei's website extract the UPDATE.APP onto the desktop and drag it into the Huawei update extractor. After that you're going to extract the boot.img from the tool by right clicking then you're going to have to flash the stock boot.img you just extracted to remove root . You'll keep twrp so don't worry. Now all you have to do is let the update to emui 5.0 download to 100% now hit update. It's going to reboot into twrp to update. It will loop so DO NOT WORRY that's the bug I'm talking about it will force twrp to update you will see the terminal as twrp flashes the update after it stops looping then the screen will go black and show erecovery finishing the update.

when it boots unlock your phone open Es File Explorer when you open the application on screen will say "new files" there will be 2 zip files one of them will say update.zip.

Tap on it to open that folder. Notice that the files are going to be under the storage/emulated/0 folders which you can only get to with root copy or move both zip files to your /sdcard/download directory connect your phone to your computer open the update.zip folder and drag the update.app to the Huawei update extractor and extract the boot.img take the boot.img and put it back on your phone in the download folder.

Open magisk manager tap install and then tap on patch to boot.img now go to the magiskmanager folder copy the patched boot.img to downloads if your download folder and extract it to your desktop. After that adb your phone into bootloader mode and flash the boot.img reboot and you'll be rooted with magisk!

This is exactly how I rooted my honor 6x USA version and I know lots of people where wanting root on emui 5.0 and if you run into any bootloops or brick your phone you already have the backup stock images to try again if you want . I do apaolgize about how this looks messy and how long the guide is but it works ! I would have just uploaded the boot.img I patched but I'm new to xda and they won't let me post outside links so try it out !
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
But there are already guides for emui 4 and 5.

No need to rollback just to root.

There is one in my signature for emui 5
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] R3DP0IS0N:
Well that was something I couldn't find I've looked forever. And I did flash twrp but it would never boot into the recovery on 5.0 that's why I did this process so I guess this is for the people who are having the same problem with their u.s version of the phone. Thanks for letting me know .

But why not just buy a note 4 then... im just puzzled by the will to have miui on this device, other then the dual camera your much better off with a note 4 4GB version if you want miui... its cheaper, it has the same specs and best of all for all miui nutjobs, it has miui 9... mods need to start removing these posts, I see them all over forums... its like if someone bought a pixel 2 device and would keep asking "when is touchwiz coming to this device from google", it's not and if its ported don't complain that its not very good.. just saying, this device is called A1 because its AndroidOne not miui.
