Same problem here... First it was black screen and crashing of camera app, then after clearing android cache, camera app cache and gallery cache, back/main camera is working again but front/selfie camera is crashing when i try to change to it...
[Huawei P30 Questions & Answers] chipyy94:
Which android cache are you cleaning?
[Huawei P30 Questions & Answers] CarnX:
when i said android cache i meant cache from that eRecovery menu (volume up + power button)

Meanwhile, I tried to revert to android 9, and the problem persisted, reset to factory defaults didnt help as well, then update to Androdi version10 didnt help... Have no idea what to do...

Sending it to service tomorrow...
[Huawei P30 Questions & Answers] chipyy94:
i also wiped cache and it didnt helped, but i have this problem on p30 and i think it happened because of update...

You did a great thing by using a phone for over 4 years. These are why companies are making better phones with long term support - if you can replace the battery or screen for cheap, and your carrier doesn't offer you a "deal" on a new phone, why would you want one?

Now me on the other hand, in 6 years I've daily driven 5 phones and 8 versions of Android, including 4 custom ROMs. 😂

HOWEVER, I did it sustainably - using only phones given to me for free ;) with the exception of the Moto G and a used S10e.

It's a cell phone service in the USA. (along with AT&T, Spring, TMobile, etc.)

What cell phone services does this phone work on?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Snakecharmed:
These are the phone's supported bands:

LTE Frequenzbänder: FDD-LTE B1 / B3 / B7 / B20 / B28, TDD-LTE B38 / B39 / B40 / B41

3G Frequenzbänder: UMTS / HSPA+ / DC-HSDPA: B1 / B2 / B3 / B5 / B8, CDMA (800, 1900, 2100Mhz), TD-SCDMA (1900, 2000Mhz)

T-Mobile LTE (2, 4, 5, 12, 66, 71) is out. AT&T LTE (2, 4, 5, 12, 14, 17, 29, 30, 66) is out. Verizon LTE (2, 4, 5, 13, 46, 48, 66) is out.

The only LTE band supported by any US carrier is Sprint on 41 and one band is not anything to safely rely on long-term following the T-Mobile merger.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jesus is God Almighty:
Ahhh I have no idea @baldybill but @Snakecharmed seemed to give you the answer. Not so knowledgeable on those areas. But we are all here to learn, I would think :)
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jesus is God Almighty:
It is already looking good, have installed the Light version and gotten it rooted - still need to move my applications over to it. But it is progressing :)

I did play a racing game, although I really should not - but it runs perfectly fluent compared to the LG V20 which is not a surprise. Even in the highest setting it seem to run more smooth then the lowest on the LG V20, but really somewhat unfair because of the 4-5 year differences between them. The screen itself also looks better, clear and crisp, although I have seen some issues other places when the screen is all white. But Shift are are still working on the 2 stock systems so... But the game itself was crisp and clear and overall the game was running fluently on the highest setting.

I don't think I will look much back to the LG V20 when I get this up and running as my daily driver. Although, I would like to try out Lineage on my LG V20 if possible, version 10, I am thinking it might get me closer together to have the same usability compared to each other... But maybe not...

Dunno, in any case it is looking good and promising! :) Finally an upgrade from the LG V20, a phone with the 3 essentials. How hard it can be for companies to do sane things these days.

exFAT is at the moment not supported by Shift 6mq but support for it should be coming! Something about some worldly stuff needed to run through... Can't remember the details. But it is on the way as I understand it. At the moment it only runs FAT32, which is kinda annoying as that only supports 4 GB files.

Anyway... As said they are still working hard on the software so... 2 systems, google and ungoogle versions.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Snakecharmed:
Fully serviceable phones seem to be more popular in Europe than in the US. The Shift6mq seems to be the most advanced option I've seen so far in terms of hardware. The Snapdragon 845 is a couple of generations old, but the total package apart from audio hardware is a clear improvement over the V20. However, if I had to pick the #1 reason why I still use the V20 daily, it's the second screen.

There's no real equivalent to the Shift6mq in the US. The best option I've seen here is the Teracube 2e and between the 720p screen resolution and the MediaTek A25 chipset, it kinda sucks.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jesus is God Almighty:
Okay, I just dropped my phone from 10-15 cm while sitting on the toilet flipping it around, although having the silicon *Or something of that kind* protection I did not think much about it really... But... My screen broke. I have never ever experienced an issue with my LG V20, actually after 4 years the screen still seems like new, and it has been dropped a good amount of times.

Yet one single minor small drop - and I now have a broken new mobile which screen is broke. I though it was the Gorilla glass at first with 2 lines of breaking but... Investigating further it seems the Gorilla is just fine - "just" the screen behind it, that is broke. And investigating further the line starts from the bottom left corner and goes up at the side, and in the middle of the screen it goes out in 2 lines. There is a minor thing as well over it in the left side.

Beside the none colors and weird colors it makes, I am pretty sure the screen is broke. I saw this guy breaking mobiles, and this seem to be the same screen issue that he gets when Jerry I think his name is, brakes the mobiles.

*Sigh* And I did not even get to use the mobile as a daily driver before it failed on me :/ I was trying to find an app that could get my applications unto it, after now being rooted and on the ungoogled version of Shift. I first tried an open source app which could not restore the backed up applications on A10, I was then at the point of it happening trying with Titanium Backup, but it needed you to push with every single Application, which actually was what did me in and made me drop it. Usual I would have laid it down once until finish, but here you had to wait for installing the app and then push again.

I think this is one of these Free features that most likely is not in the Pro version - but knowing not if the app works, I wanted to test it before maybe buying it.

Anyway... My new fresh phone from Germany is Broke... *Sigh* Terrible just Terrible. Well, at least moving forward, but if this is standard that the screen dies by so little... Well, hopefully it was just a faulty item, although I am afraid that it might not be. What is the point of Gorilla protection if the screen just blows up by itself without even touching the surface of the Gorilla glass. Seems to me that it must have been the vibrations overall that killed the screen, as it just hit the Silicon cover protecting it as it should.

Whatever the case, my new phone is RIP for now! Well, I guess it is good I got the new used LG V20 that is rooted and running! At least I can focus on that for now, it still needs some fixing, yet it is my daily driver and would be until getting the other up and running with all the apps and setup which I was closing into. But now really hit into a biggie with the new phone. Oh well...

Dearly regards

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jesus is God Almighty:
Well, there was a screwdriver with the mobile and... I've just looked into repairing the screen. It does look like it won't be that hard, I hope... The whole idea with the Shift phone was that one could repair it by them self, although hopefully the screens normally don't break so quick. It could easily become expensive if one needs to buy a screen every time one drops it. :P Hopefully I had a faulty screen, or they might need to investigate into better screens. Like that was just way to easy to break.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jesus is God Almighty:
Okay Carsten from Shift wanna have a look on the mobile - I will send it back and hopefully he can get something out of it. Nice to see they care about their products :)

Hopefully this is not a normal thing, and if it is - then I hope they get it corrected. Like 4 years without a cracking screen on my LG V20, and then just a small and first drop of the new - it ruined :p Only one other time have I ruined a phone, when I was in Israel and I dropped my Samsung Note 2 directly hitting a stone with the screen faced down. But it was still working at least. Actually that was the outer protection screen which broke, and not the screen itself.

Who knows, might have had a weak screen of production - in any case, they wanna have a look at it.

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Snakecharmed:
A bump for anyone in a similar boat casually looking for a V20 successor and having to consider tradeoffs:

Although I'm still currently not looking to replace the V20 as my daily phone, if I had to buy a phone that has at least been announced in 2021, it would be the Sony Xperia 1 III. The main tradeoff is a non-removable battery.

Everything else is top tier in specs and it retains the removable storage and 3.5 mm jack, has USB-C 3.x, and doesn't compromise on CPU, 5G connectivity, or screen, camera, or audio quality like many of these alternatives. I generally don't care about price because I usually don't buy new phones anyway and I would hypothetically wait out the Xperia 1 III for at least half a year after release if I were to get one. The only brand new phone I've ever bought was the LG G4.

I've been getting tired of watching Asus screw people over on either the removable storage or 3.5 mm jack with both their Zenfone and ROG flagships, so I'm glad Sony finally included both in a contemporary flagship when everyone else has been allergic to these features.

Obviously, everyone has different priorities for what features are must-haves when moving on from the V20, but a non-removable battery isn't a dealbreaker to me as long as replacing it doesn't cause permanent cosmetic damage to the exterior. Rootability isn't very important to me anymore either after seeing how my Galaxy Tab S4 hasn't made me miss root much thanks to Blokada and YouTube Vanced.

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Snakecharmed:
Do you expect to use this device as a phone in the US? Because the exact same thing I mentioned about the 6mq's compatibility with US carriers applies to the 6m.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] UIQrules:
haha, that's hilarious. Was just looking at that phone for a replacement, too.

The screen issue is that the v20 had a p-oled, LGs plastic substrate led (the amoleds have a glass layer over the led plates). I wonder who is actually going to take up that in the business now. Presumably LG will be making more of these gorgeous screens (..last one was in the Velvet, I guess?). But the amoleds are a bit more expensive to make, while they are typically even more expensive to purchase (meaning: better margins). So that's going to push them out of the market, just like the lithium polymer batteries were for .. gods.. 15-20 years. There's still phones with organic batteries - that you can't change - that are sold right now, in extremely expensive phones.

So it's a bit difficult to find an actually good phone that will last a bit right now.. Kind of wondering if that will ever actually change, unless someone who knows about tech, and also has enough money to just say **** it, starts making actually good phones - and sell them at the price-range they actually cost to make. Xiaomi, or some other more domestic Chinese brand might be the best bet, to be perfectly honest..
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Descent2:
LG just announced it will not be making the mobile phones anymore. Done. Lol, like you said, someone said "**** it", just that they stopped making phones. I think it is sad.

Don't buy the Shift phone 6mq.

The screen broke again and got lots of issues overall with it. Back on an old "new" LG V20 phone non rooted.

I had so much hope for this but it sucks.

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] ssnova:
Thanks for an update on the Shift phone. THe LG V20 is truly a special phone, it has everything I could ask for, though not 100% executed with perfection (for example, LG was very innovative to include the "notched" 2nd screen, however I'd rather it be uniform... be it LCD, or nowadays everything is OLED).

3 things that the LG v20 has that we probably won't see emphasized again are: (1)IR blaster(great to use as a smart remote!), (2)user replaceable battery(just swap and go, so convenient... and when the battery is no longer holding charge, it's just so easy to put in a fresh battery... no pulling the phone apart or dealing with resealing, etc.), (3) amplified quad dac 3.5mm jack(not just any 3.5 jack, but a high performing one!).... of course there is the expandable memory too...

Such a beast of a phone that we may not see come back again... unless some wealthy and passionate crowd funders came together to re-release such a phone(in addition to modern and updated SOC's, I'd like to see upgraded cameras... but the fundamentals need to remain: 3.5mm quad dac, user replaceable battery, IR blaster, expandable storage).
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] wirxestonia:
After upgrading to latest Android 11 software my battery drains ~35% faster compared to Android 10. Actually after first major Samsung Android 11 it works fine some weeks, problem comes about same time as S21 goes on sale.

Phone goes warm in hands when browsing in internet, it almost never happened before. With Android 10, battery drains about 10% per hour when browsing in internet, now it's 13-15%. Tried 60 and 120fps modes, power saving mode, etc, always same result. Sometime it helps when I force close all programs with 3C taskmanager, but it works only sometimes. I have disabled all bloatware so there is only very few programs running.

Another problem is that after update, videos in Chrome/Brave browser are like added exposure +5, they are brighter and black is grey. But if I change volume and volume controls appears on screen, black is black and there is no +5 exposure. It is same with every webpage and also in fullscreen. But when using Samsung browser, everything works fine. I have tried to disabled chrome and using older Brave browser, but problem stays.

I have tried to wipe cache partition, but somehow my phone won't goes to Recovery menu, tried to hold 1s up+power, 3s, 10s, etc but phone goes always to usual startup. Both keys works perfectly.

[General Questions and Answers] LinusX9:
Hello,

I am fairly new to android development, and I want to customize an open source browser application to suite my usecase.

So what is my usecase:

I use an Oculus Quest 2 running Android. As with any Android device, you can sideload any app on it, but unfortunately the OS is very rigorous with killing background tasks, making it impossible to have Discord or Spotify running in the background while playing a game, which was my plan.

So I thought about it and came up with the idea of creating my own browser that implements the functionality to prevent it from being killed by the OS itself, and then in the browser I can open the web application of Spotify or Discord or some other web service to listen to it.

I have now decided to use the FOSS browser that I found on github and wanted to modify it to keep it open in the background. Unfortunately, I know next to nothing about Android app development and I don't even know if it's even possible to add this kind of functionality to an existing app without completely rewriting it. I hope my explanation is clear and that there is someone who can help me with this task.

Some keywords I already found out about are:

- creating a service (background service)

- foregrounding -> to tell the system that the app running in the background is important and shall only be closed if memory is very limited
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 1890170:
An Android system running multiple processes in parallel may encounter situations when system memory is exhausted and processes that require more memory experience noticeable delays. Memory pressure, a state in which the system is running short on memory, requires Android to free memory (to alleviate the pressure) by throttling or killing unimportant processes, requesting processes to free noncritical cached resources, and so on.

It's the Android LMK ( read: Low Memory Killer ) process what monitors the memory state of a running Android system and reacts to high memory pressure by killing the least essential processes to keep the system performing at acceptable levels.

My hint:

Create a SWAP space ( means virtual RAM ) what will extend physical RAM.

Here ADB example code to create 1GB swap file in Android's user-space what requires Android is rooted

adb devices
adb shell "su -c 'dd if=/dev/zero of=/storage/emulated/0/swap bs=1M count=1024'"
adb shell "su -c 'chmod 600 /storage/emulated/0/swap'"
adb shell "su -c 'mkswap /storage/emulated/0/swap'"
adb shell "su -c 'swapon /storage/emulated/0/swap'"
adb shell "su -c 'cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.back'"
adb shell "su -c 'echo "/swapfile none swap sw 0 0" >> /etc/fstab'"
[General Questions and Answers] LinusX9:
In theory this seams like a good solution for my problem but unfortunatly rooting my device is currently no option.

I know that there are ways of preventing an app from beeing killed immediately after its put to the background since there are already such apps available. But non of them fits my usecase, so thats why I'm searching for a way of getting this browser to work in the background.

Hi all,

Just bought yesterday this phone and after doing typical actions like android config (oem, debugging, etc.), installed adb and fastboot. PC recognized command adb devices and shows the phone but when I reboot to fastboot mode, it stucks and the device manager shows unknown android.

Have read all the tips here, forums, youtube, etc. but no way. Tried in 2 different computer with same results. Installed last android studio with sdk manager, same error. Installed oneplus drivers and also the same.

Even I have tried a different cable but no success at all.

This is so frustrating situation, ever more considering that I'm not newbie at this (years ago always changed rom every month and smartphone every 2 months).

Any advice? Format pc? Install other windows in other partition?

Or selling the phone and buying another brand :(

Did you select always allow from this computer after enabling debugging and plugging your phone into computer when phone was booted and running(not in recovery or fastboot. Also adb does not work in the bootloader only fastboot commands. Secondly search for the insecure modded stock recovery if you want to do adb access commands in recovery. There is also a fastboot d mode on our phones which look like recovery but you can flash all partions via full fastboot to get to fastboot d your phone has to be on then you type adb reboot fastboot
