I have used LG Optimus G Pro previously, the G PRO is a beast in Major areas except Camera and Sound. I get few problems when using HTC 820.
1) The Software does lag some times and the result is opening multiple apps or tabs at a time.
2) The Typing is not as smooth as LG G PRo, what it lack is the speed. The OSK doesn't fetch the user key presses as fast as other phones.
3) IMO i do not like the UI and somewhat it lacks the feel good factor, I need to use different GUI apps to make it better like GO or Aviate.
Will update if i face any problems, I too got this phone a week ago.
Thanks

[Q&A] LG G3

Hey guys,
Im thinking about buying this phone (or the xperia z3).
Can you tell me your experience with this phone (and if you have any with the z3 it would be awesome).
I've heard there are problems with overheating and lag caused by the massive QHD screen.
Thanks
Just try, you'll love it, nothing comes close, if you root, remove bloat and greenify etc, it's awesome

The phone is absolutely amazing. The only thing I would say that kinda bugs me is the battery life, but since its 5.5 quad HD i can't complain. Also am getting the extra battery and cradle so i will be getting about 16 hours of heavy usage ??
It looks great, but mine died after a week. Now it needs a new motherboard. Model D855. I don't recommend Sony. They only update ROMs for a year. Their design
is boring and software behind Samsung and LG. Choose between S5 or G3 if you ask me.

LG G3 normal Android ROM?????

Hello everybody,
i have maybe a little strange question but still...
i own a LG G3 16gb, before that i was an Iphone user for about 8 years, and since the Apple has become "boring", i switched to Android LG G3, wich was supposed to be the BEAST...and damn i was wrong...
Dont get me wrong, i love the phone, it just bothers me like hell the laggines of the user interface...why did LG had to ruin perfectly good machine, loaded with superb hardware, with a crappy UI????
For instance...apps like dialer, messages, email...tooks about 2-3 seconds to open up...it even lags on scrolling trough facebook (had to switch off Auto video play to kinda fix that).
So my question is...is there any ROM maybe for this phone wich does not have an UGLY stock LG G3 skin...currently i use Crash Rom 1.6.2 which is better from stock...but still not good...
Because i dont believe there is no better rom for that hardware...

you should've got a Moto X 2014 or Nexus 5/6 instead
yea im looking for nexus 5 but only 16gb are available in my country which is a shame they did not put an SD card slot in this phone :crying:
well i had this problem for a while but it seems to be fixed now that i flashed the v20H update. my phone is superfast and battery life is almost as good as it was on lg g2 (i can easily reach 5h of screen on time). i'm satisfied now. you can try that and remove useless apps from LG (it makes a huge difference) (root is needed)
on the other hand, you can try the aosp version which is snappier and faster than anyone but you'll lose quality on camera (like darker pictures)
Flash Cyanogenmod ...

How did you keep the root with lollipop.
I am on KitKat rooted and when I did the update I lost root, so I went back to KitKat again and rooted.
Sorry about the dumb question I am kind of new to Android too

Apart from the fact that in real world situations you'd never need to use a device in that manner i don't see any lag that is bad enough to warrant calling it a fault.
Maybe you just have too much crap, by crap i mean apps and games that run in the background.
My m9 has its moments but they are few and far between. Maybe you should have bought a samsung, touchwiz will definitely give you something to moan about (don't mean that in a nasty way).
Another pointer is that apps aren't yet optimally using 64 bit so the 8core thing is emulated by the device at the moment.
Personally I think you're being pedantic..
I wish I stole my HTC M9.

I didn't know if my device is m9 or not lol

lG G4 slower than moto x first generation

Hello, i bought the LG G4 2 months ago, and I was really happy, I had the moto X 1 generation for 2 years, yesterday I use it to delete something to pass it to my mom, I noticed the moto x, faster in every single aspect (obviously no camera or heavy games) the normal use of the phone like, take it to check a mail, write notes, calendar, messaging, the launcher is faster in the moto x, changing between app is faster in the moto x, scrolling in chrome is faster in the moto x...
I have stock roms in both phones, same version. 5.1 not root or any kind of mod, no developers options, the animation speed is 1x in both phones...
The point of this post is ask, why if the moto x is an older phone with less specifications it is faster, and how can I make my LG G4 (h815p) faster like my old phone, now this think is making me crazy, why why why... >.<
If there is a problem with my English or you don't understand something ask me, English is not my native language.
Thank for the help.
I don't want to go back to the moto x, but I am really taking it in consideration...

Sadly I can't unlock the bootloader of my model :/ and I can only use stock Roms cuz I pay an insurance for hardware and software for full hardware replacement.

You can use LGUP to upgrade to MM and test if it feels better. Any time you need to go to the repair, you can use it again to downgrade and they will never know what you did.

yeah exactly @bathcrow
MM is totally stock dude .. And the same rom will be available for all devices via ota and lg bridge..
LGup does not require unlocked bootloader neither root

i will try with lgup i didnt know that this tool didnt need to have bootloeader unlocked.
to make sure this thread works for something, after using LGUP and installing Marshmallow on my lg g4 and using it for a whole day i can say that the phone is faster than before it was a really smooth boost, swithing beteewn apps is faster, its just a tap and is open, no more lag scrolling in chrome, everything is better, the only thing i noticed maybe cuz the heavy use is that the phone was hotter than before, i will check this tomorrow.
I had a moto x 2nd gen before I got my g4. The g4 is slower in almost every aspect. I even did a side by side comparison when I first got the G4. The processor that was in the moto x 2014 seems to be superior to the 808 in the G4. Just look at Andantechs reviews of the 808 and 810. They seem to think that they are problematic and that the previous generation 805 runs much better without heat, throttling or gpu issues. It also doesn't help that the g4 has a very heavy skin on top of Android. I may go to the moto Nexus 6 myself, not sure looking at alternatives to the g4 myself.
I am sure that rooting and changing the governor may help too, but I think LGs software couple with a junky processor make this g4 slow at times.
See the following link, scroll to the bottom where it compares the frequencies of phones where the paragraph starts "Looking at the frequency..". It will give you a breakdown on how the 808 works terribly in g4, flex and nexus 5x.

system freezes

I don't know how well I can describe, the phone freezes sometimes when having multiple apps running on background. Would it be the phone specs that I have only 3GB and 32GB storage? After freezing a while, the phone shows system ui not responding.
What should I do for that?

I think this is just lack of Nokia optimising the software on the phone. I'm just waiting for someone to make a room for this thing cuz it pretty sucks right now.
Hi there. I bought my girlfriend this phone about a month ago due to a nearly glowing review on The Wirecutter. She's having the same problem, but she's not familiar with XDA so I offered to post here for her.
Is this an uncommon problem? I am not seeing any thread about intermittent System UI crashes on Nokia 6.1.
I think it depends on what apps you use on it. Hardware specs on this phone cannot handle everything. If you only use the camera in Whatsapp it allready csn hang. That's my main issue the camera. For the rest its ok.. maybe you need a high end phone.

I don't have any lagging, hanging issues with the phone, but take my opinion with a grain of salt since i have the 4GB/64GB version.
It seems like August patch is somewhat more optimized than previous version. I was stuck in June security patch then jumped to august, so i can tell that there were improvements..

with a task mgmt apk and close those that use a big amount of ram like those that continuously update like FB. Also reboot your phone very once and a while to refresh the OS
I run into this issue pretty often on TA-1045. Not sure what's causing it, but its to the point where the phone is almost unusable as a daily driver if you use your phone for important calls/messages .. I'm hoping the September update will address some of this, but I had a more reliable experience with my very old Nexus 5X running Android 8 compared to this
---------- Post added at 04:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:02 PM ----------
Also, I run into this issue with 1GB RAM free
Hello guys ! Same issue here , 3/32 gb. I can honestly say at this point that because of the lack of optimization the phone is a piece of sh*t. Literally, I cannot use it as a daily driver , I only have installed FB and messenger, what's app and 9 gag. I don't need use anything else. I don't use the camera . The phone just freezes and it's unusable for a minute or two. It freezes randomly , when unlocking when trying to make a call or when opening a ****ty app. TBH I wouldn't buy a device like this again .. my GF has the p20 lite , not bright at all but far far better then my 6.1 . If pie won't fix this I will just hammer the phone and throw it to garbage.
I think to say that this phone runs this way due to limited hardware is just coming up with excuses. My 2015 Moto g runs Oreo and everything else better than this phone and was $80 cheaper. My 10" tablet with a Snapdragon 400 series with 2gb of ram has none of these issues either. It has to be something not working correctly in the ROM. I really hope that pie fixes things, if not then eBay will be. To be fair lagging/freezing happens about 25% of the time. Camera freezing happens 90%, no system UI crash. Whats really ****ed up is how no review says how much this phone sucks.
The same freezes on my Nokia (TA-1043) waiting for custom roms... Nokia software is crap

I did contact nokia customer support, they told me to patiently wait for the next update and just restart my phone using the hardware keys when it freezes. When I asked about sending it to warranty they said again to wait for the next update . I said ok will do that . Now if pie doesn't fix this , I will make sure to let everyone know not to buy a nokia again .

Oh yes I have contacted them at least 5 times and they always say to do the same crap. Last one told me to send it in for warranty but I know they won't do anything since it's not only me with the issue and I don't want to be without a phone or them to open it up for nothing.

I agree they dont seem to offer real solutions. My main problem is the laggy camera. But if indeed android pie does not help. I am selling it to.
If it IS the ROM an "update" can only do so much and cant reverse system flaws inherent from the manufacturing process. It also doesnt help that the OS uses 2 Gs of RAM. Anyone know if the X6 has the same problem?
I have a TA-1045 (bought in USA) manufactured July 2018 that came pre-installed with Oreo 8.1 and I do not have any of the freeze or lag or whatever. If yours was updated from Nougat maybe you can factory reset it so it will clean everything in data and system/application preferences?

Do you have the 4GB with 64GB then? And maybe you dont have a lot of apps installed
To fix camera freezing try turning off location for camera in app settings and also in the camera settings.
The freezing has become unbearable. I can't believe how bad this phone is now. Such a shame, may need a new phone if not resolved soon.
