I bought this device because it was overall very good in all the reviews I read. I read that the charger that came with it didnt support Quick Charge 2.0. That was the first dissapointment. When i received it, it was running Android 6.0. I did an OTA check and no updates were available. I decided to download Lg Bridge and i finally found one update. I bought this device on one condition, to avoid LG UX 4.0. And guess what, my phone was part of an ever growing crowd of people who didnt have the eu bootloader! I felt like I was smacked in the face. I searched the internet for more info and my fears were confirmed. Ever since that i vowed to never buy from LG again. Android is about Freedom and there is none of that on the LG G4. European market bias confirmed:crying:. Months after the discovery I had witnessed the scariest thing ever, I was listening to some music with my LG earphones plugged in. And suddenly i couldnt wake the damned thing anymore but when i touched the screen i could hear typing sounds, I had to pull the battery out. The battery life on the thing was mediocre at best, the screen never lived up the my expectations, the phone gets dangerously hot when i use snapchat. The only thing going for the LG G4 is its camera which was probably the best in 2015. I simply cannot stand the lag on the phone anymore and I am searching for other phones. Im not that kind of person who spends 600 euros on a phone. Then the Oneplus 3 showed and for 400 euro i get a phone 2 times as powerful, dash charging, an UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER and a premium design. Whats more Oneplus actually tries to fix its phones and released tons of fxes for the OP2. Im pretty sure the phone will get Android Nougat even if it takes a while(after witnessing what speedy updates meant on the LG G4 I would prefer slow and steady progress). The only thing the oneplus loses in is the camera department which will improve. Im tempted to wait for the 2016 Nexuses as they will have the best Android experience as well as support for Daydream vr. Ive also checked out the ugly zenfone 3 deluxe which will cost much more than 400 euro. The Axon 7 is also tempting but im not sure if the 6gb version will come out, the bootloader seems to be locked for now(check out the devices forum) So guys should i wait for the more expensive Nexus by HTC or look out for the OP3 and Axon 7?

How do I install the stock Cricket ROM again?
I have unlocked bootloader and TWRP installed.
I downloaded the stock zip from htcdev but its missing META-INF according to installing process in TWRP. trying to recover it wont work either because when you extract the zip file and put those in the TWRP backup folder, TWRP doesnt see it as a backup option
The custom "stock" debloated ROM's arent a suitable replacement because they are all built on 4.4.2 and don't have the dot 3 update which HTC pushed out for this phone with latest features/security.
do I have to relock the bootloader or what?

No wifi again after disabling it
Hey guys!
I´m facing a really annoying problem and i´m afraid it could be hardware related...
First of all, i didn´t use the 6p as my main phone so i cannot say since when this problem persists.
I wondered about his: i was connected to my wifi network. After sometime i looked at the phone - it was disconnected from the ap. I tried to re-enable it but no luck, just a restart brings it back. Used omni and thought, okay...might be an aosp thing.
Just installed CM (everything included, baseband, radio, vendor) - if i disable wifi and wanting to enable it again, i don´t get any access to my ap. If i restart the phone it´s there.
Please take a look at the video i made to show this problem. https://youtu.be/STUeUdZ3WyY
Thanks in advance!

Unlock the Note 4 to use other sim AGAIN?
Guys, I use the method in the ATT Note 4 forum to unlock my phone when it came out long time ago. Now after 5.1.1 and security updates. No more unlocked (asking for codes when putting Tmobile sim again). Any one knows the thread to unlock this phone again to use with other GSM carriers?

Loss of phone signal - Phone fails to search for signal again
ive switched to CM13 and loving this phone... one gripe though..
on stock MIUI and CM, if i lose signal (usually 4g, running 1 sim) i will often stay with "no signal" for hours, unless i go into airplane mode and toggle on and off to force the phone to search for signal.
I've looked through all the settings and haven't found anything that could be causing it. I have it set to search for 4g first, then 3g, 2g.
I have the sim in tray 1 as well, but i highly doubt that could be causing issues.
I'm on Optus (Australia) and realize all bands arent supported out of the box, but the phone has 4g/3g signal where i am, it's just not looking for it.
Any ideas ?

Help me find this watch face again
I recently had to factory reset my classic gear S2 and lost my favorite watch face in the process. I attached a picture of it. Somehow I can't find it in the store anymore and I don't remember its name. If someone recognizes it, can you tell me its name? I would really appreciate as it was the perfect watch face for my need.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Do I need to root again?
So yesterday I unlocked the bootloader and root my OPX, and today I've installed cyanogenmod 13. I have also downloaded Root Checker to check if I am still root or not, and it says that I am not a root user anymore.
Do I have to root again? And if so, which steps do i have to take?
Thank you in advance :)

Bring back don't show again
Hi,
When normally switching on Reading Mode appears a notification explaining some things about Reading Mode.
I put to not show again the notification, if I want the notification again how can I put it again on?
Also
I enabled the screen saver, so far so good.
I received this warning:

I disabled the screen saver and out of curiosity I enabled again and this warning did not showed again, I suppose it have disabled anything, I do not know what.
Does anyone know if something has turned off and if so, what and bring back this warning?
Grateful.

Again, battery drain
This is my third thread about battery drain (standby).
Now I'm on RR and I've been also on aicp but both unlike cm are showing *alarm*, *launch*, and lcing wakelocks on random apps.
And I'm wondering do you get same wakelocks graphs in BBS?
And that is 7% drain over night.
But...
I'd didn't happen when my phone was in my pocket...
Does that mean that doze is the problem?

Any way to lock my bootloader again (H815 eu)?
I unlocked my bootloader to try CM13, but I'm not happy. Now I can't find any guides or pages that explain how I can revert my phone back to original state (bootloader locked)? Can't sell this phone when the device unlocked text is on the boot screen :(
Plese don't respond if you just tell me to google or search, because I did that...

Update my unlocked phone will lock it back again?
I have a GS7 sprint recently unlocked and I want to update it but I don't know if it will lock again.
It's a SM-G930P
It seems that the baseband will be updated and other thing that I couldn't find in settings.

So I used my galaxy note edge SM-N915F for 6 months with no problem, but I did the Marshmallow 6.0.1 update and now it doesn't work. As I said in the title when I try to start it reboots over and over again.
Any suggestions?? It opens only downloading mode and I flashed a rom(official russian Marshmallow 6.0.1 rom) with Odin and it didn't work.
Please help me! Thanks in advanced!

Network unlocked my phone a year ago - now it seems to be network locked again. Help?
Hi, about a year ago I got a G925T and unlocked it to use on ATT network. Now, I've been gone the last 5 months or so and since the second or third day coming back my phone messed up and developed the FRP issue. I got that sorted out and have since used odin to load 6.0.1 and then installed TWRP, root, new kernel and rom.
But even after all this, I still have the network lock issue. IT says to me that network locked sim card is inserted. Is it possible that the issue is with the sim card not the phone? What could possibly cause the phone to re-lock itself? Any thoughts/suggestions?
Edit: Looked up the IMEI and it is clean, was when I bought it and seems to still be now so I don't think that is the issue.

[APP][4.1+][ROOT] Densy - make your dpi great again!
Densy - change your dpi
Download:

Densy is an app I developed to change your dpi. I know a lot of apps do that already, but this one is different. It can make your dpi 'right'.
By default, Android will use a dpi like 320, which looks a bit weird on 5" screens. The screen's actual dpi is 294 with a 720p resolution.
You can also set a custom dpi, like other apps can.
Give it a try and tell me what you think about it!

Un-rooting stock rom would make Gearvr work again ?
I used to have a rooted Lollipop stock rom and then got the gearvr and it didnt work until I re-flashed the un-rooted firmware again , this caused me to reinstall everything from scratch , now a friend suggested i should try un-rooting option found in KingUser or SuperUser whenever I needed to use Gearvr (untested , just a thought).
so anybody tried this ?
I just dont want to have to reinstall everything once more , its pretty much annoying :)
Thanks in advance :)
