[Q] What do you think of LG G3 ? - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I want to buy LG G3 32GB version that has 3GB RAM
please help me out with my problem here my priorities are :
1. best performance for gaming
2. best sound + screen quality for watching movies
3. best camera for scanning documents + taking pictures
4. ideal development state
5. best battery lifetime
but before all of these I want the longest and best lifetime a device can offer cause im gonna have this phone for about 2 years till i change it again.
so based on my priorities and the fact that i will most definitely root and use custom kernel/roms and tweaks can this device offer me the best lifetime and least issues !?
Does it heat up really bad when playing games and recording with camera with the new updates and etc ?
How is the camera quality ?
How is the sound and audio quality ?
Are there any real issues with screen and its battery drain and heating up ?
Are there issues that I must be concerned with before buying ?

It does, but not that bad. Then thermal control kicks and the lag becomes noticeable.
Great camera, but only in stock roms.
Sound clear, but not to loud.
Some units have to much glue and yellow spots appear on screen. Most are fine. Amazing screen with great viewing angles and natural, desaturated colors.
Before buying this or another phone, remember that lollipop is a mess right now. Multitasking is awful. There are some important bugs in g3's lollipop.
You should read through this forum, because everything you asked is actively debated.
If money is no problem, then G4 might be better for you.

P6 everyday use - experience

Hi!
I would like to kindly ask if anyone can give me some input on how this Huawei Ascen P6 is behaving in everyday use? I have an option to get it as my work phone and would really like to know if this is a stable phone, or does start to behave poorly as previous Huawei Honor started to, after some use.
I have an option to get Nokia 925, Glaxy S4 Mini, Xperia SP and Huawei P6.
Thanks for your opinions.
Best regards,
D

I have been using the ascend p6 for the past 2 3 months. I am using the stock emotion ui with very heavy modifications using xposed framework and also a custom launcher.
So far I am very impressed with its performance. Emotion ui is a very well made rom with really smooth and nice animations (i love eye candy ). I haven't noticed any lag on my phone yet. Battery life is not exceptional but not disappointing as well. I can go through the day with normal usage without having to recharge (My normal usage includes frequent phone calls, not much internet browsing but a lot of music playing). You can play all normal games quite well though games with extremely heavy graphic requirements might lag (I never play such games on a mobile). Sound quality is also pretty good and it comes with dolby digital enhancements. Using iphone earphones on the p6 gives amazing sound quality.
So far the only problem I have noticed is a slight heating up on the top part of the phone which i have heard may be resolved with the kitkat update.
When compared to the others, I would choose the huawei hands down. It has better specs, emui is an amazing rom and finally it is one damn beautiful phone.. exceptionally beautiful!!!
It's very good, and the B125 update is very smooth.
Takes a day or two to settle down, then, very easy use, a pleasure to hold, screen very silky.
Only thing is you have to play with your battery life a little... Every night charge!
Sent from my HUAWEI P6-U06 using XDA Premium HD app
Had the phone since August last year, with various stock roms and a few beta's, currently on B122, not upgrading again till the official KK one comes out. I liked it initially, but things are starting to annoy me now.
The back panel is very easily scratched/scuffed for one, not from dropping but just sitting on a desk, in empty pocket etc. I never have a cover on my phones but do stick on a screen protector mind you. Also the silver edging at the top is marked, again from being in an empty pocket, and just general use.
The little pin thats in the audio jack is a pain, had to hunt about for it countless times after wanting to plug my headphones in, now lost.
The audio sound is very very low, sometimes not even audible if surrounding noise is high. I have some beats in ear headphones that work perfectly with everything else, but not this.
the camera is garbage, takes too long to snap and the focus is terrible, on all varying settings. Been the same on every rom ive tested. At the moment with 2 young kids its pretty much joint top of my list of most important features.
Apart from the above the hardware seems to be fairly decent, I like the size and the feel of the phone, but just seems to be a bit lacking now.
Battery is ok, but feel its a constant fight to keep it lasting longer than a day. I like the profile settings software, so have it all turned off at night, which helps make it last longer, but if I use wifi or have the screen on watching videos etc it plummets rapidly.
Software is ok, few things they dont do as well as some others, but few they do.
Wife recently bought the moto g and if it wasn't for the fact its only 16gb with no expandable storage i'd be getting that (I have a lot of music on a sd card ). For the money its head and shoulders above this.
All in all its been a fairly decent phone, but one i'll look to be replacing soon. Probably for the same price or cheaper than I got his sim free.
I'm sure all of the above could be fixed by rooting, doing this, doing that, but to be honest I dont have time or patience to do all that, and shouldnt really have to.
Anyway, that's my thoughts, few some people might find it useful, sure some will be offended. hey ho.
Everyday use:
Phone(Talk/SMS):10/8
Media:
Make(Video record):10/5(Laggy,cheap sound quality ,cheap video quality)
Make(Photo):10/7
Music(After europian volume boost trick)10/7
Wathch(Video)10/10 not problem me.(Im try many video version(mov,mkv,etc)
Game:10/4 Very poor:first problem many,many game run laggyas hell..And many not supported.
Net:10/8.
Batttery:10/7(Heavy use 1.5 day)
EtcLike huawei services)10/8
From the choices you have, p6 is the best as an all rounder. The xperia sp might beat p6 over GPU, while Nokia 925 got LTE.
But you need to mention your phone usage habits and make sure your important needs fall within it. Everyone got different usage habits so their experiences cannot guarantee everything.
Phone calls & sms: 10/10 have not encountered any problems
Video recording: 7/10 Video has very washed out colours and there used to be glitches when Stabilizer was enabled on JB roms, on KitKat this problem seems to have been fixed. Sometimes unconsistant fps range, especially on JB roms, seems fixed on KK.
Photos: 8/10 The sony imx134 sensor is okay, altough it gets rather grainy at even ~400iso, the quality of the lens is also low. Auto wb works perfectly, focusing takes abit more time than other flagship devices. Most of these problems have to do with software & driver optimization.
Music: 5/10 Audio quality is not the greatest, the audio jack also has some problems with some plugs.
Watching video: 10/10 Obviously it cant play 4K (interestingly enough, the 4K plays at the same tempo as on the snapdragon 600 phones), but 1080p and 720p run absolutely fine, havent had any problems
Gaming: 4/10 Not good, phone tends give off alot of heat and causes throttling
Internet surfing: 10/10 on JB, 6/10 on KK The problem with browsing in KK is not really device specific, the Chrome engine it uses instead of webkit just is slow and laggy on every phone. Dolphin Browser uses a modified webkit engine(like on JB) which runs well on KK and it also has support for flash which is not supported in KK by Chrome.
Battery: 7/10 The battery varies alot, I remember having the phone on 20% of battery in the end of the day, nowadays I end the day with 60%, could be the KK rom but I am not sure about it. Or could also be because the weather here has gone warmer
Emotion UI: 1/10 Horrible, it runs like crap even on their own devices compared to AOSP ui, huge lack of dark themes. Just an unpleasant eyekiller in the dark because everything is lightgrey and lightblue. You would also expect to have 60fps animations for simple thing like for example pulling down the notification center and scrolling through the settings menu, even phones with quite abit weaker hardware, but better optimization, manage to keep this at 60fps!
Basically most of the issues have to do with the optimization of the GPU
It runs stable, but for a work phone the S4 Mini will most likely work better.
The camera quality in the right lighting is better than a Sony Z1 !!! I compared the exact same photos taken by my P6 and my friends Z1. I could not beleve it !
If youll mainly use p6 for work, its the perfect fit. Fast and stable. I use mine for daily emails, web browsing etc.. Well what really sealed the deal is its beauty. Would choose p6 over any other phone for its design alone.

amen to that

should i buy this phone?

hi guys
i'm nexus 4 owner and wanned to buy new phone.. and i'm thoroughly confused :/
my expections:
first of all... speed speed speed..!
i dont mean benchmark numbers or either gaming performance (i don't play games) i just want fast and super responding interface
2.battery 3. developmental support.. 4.screen 5.camera
i decided to buy s5.. but when i played around with it, totally disappointed :/ really slow interface.. i don't know how is it in non stock based custom roms..
does this phone have some super fast and snappy (probably non stock based ) roms?
then i cheked m8 .. it was lovely fast.. but i think camera is aweful stupid htc ... just put simple 13mp camera
g3 also checked it's videos.. shamefully it's slow just like s5 just have quicker animation speed.. but i want touch responsive phone.. not fast animated..
i heard it'll get better after updates.. i dunno how much..
plz help...
I recently purchased one from T-mobile.
I'm returning it soon for a Nexus 6 I think. I went in with my 2nd z3 (junk, contrary to what anyone else tells you, it's junk) and ended up with the G3 because it was the best option at the time.. It's not slow, but it's definitely laggy. I'm somewhat of a power user though, in fact I do quite a bit of my work on the road via my phone, managing to have 20 - 30 browser tabs open at once, 10 - 15 skype conversations going, etc. etc. etc. The LG skin alone makes it laggy for me, but add in my regular use and it becomes fairly bogged down. It's a gorgeous device though. You probably do not put your device through the same paces that I do on a daily basis, so take it for what it's worth. But also note that there are threads on nearly every forum on changing the thermal mitigation, etc, etc, etc, etc. in order to smooth the phone out.
It's laggy by nature, no way around it. I'm sure that you can fix this by rooting and romming, but I'm past those days in my life, I'd rather run stock android than deal with it anymore.
Cheers.
Phone for me is amazing now with custom Roms. Very fast device with zero lag. GL
If I understand things well, LG phones are really performance inconsistent. Some (like mine, fortunately) have no recognizable lag, excellent battery life (I typically get 6.25 hrs SOT, for example), etc. Some, however, are plagued with lag and less than excellent (but still good) battery life. If my reading was right, that was true of the G2 as well.
If you are comfortable with using or learning to use custom roms, you'll be good. They're coming relatively quickly of late, and the stock based roms are generally excellent (Cloudy G3, for example, is great and allows the latest official firmware on any g3 device model).
That said, it isn't perfect. Some people struggle with oversharpening of the text (a lg software issue), and generally people agree the brightness is unimpressive (my old nexus s is much brighter, for example). People generally love the camera, the screen size (and colors and contrast become quite good with a quick change in the settings). It's pretty fast (especially on firmware 10m and up, where many have reported the lag to be gone), pretty cheap, and looks pretty.
So:
Speed: good, getting better with updates. Bit of lag may present depending on firmware (which can be worked around) and luck. Custom AOSP builds are the fastest I have ever tried running.
Battery: has been amazing for me, and generally good for others. That said, not as good as for example) the G2 due to the screen.
Development: Decent, but growing steadily. Bump means all devices are currently unlocked.
Screen: Beautiful, natural colors. Top of the line sharpness and clarity. Limited brightness. Can be improved in contrast and color depth fairly easily.
Camera: absolutely fantastic
Conclusion: coming from nexus, you might prefer the new nexus 6 just on grounds of nexus excellence. You might prefer the m8 if you can get over the camera based on popularity of sense (which is incredibly popular, though i personally hate it) and out of the box lag free experience. Perhaps the Note 4 even. It all depends on you, really, and what fits you best. But honestly, i think this is an incredible device, and it's getting better.
my notes about teh G3
- Speed is what you'd expect from a flagship. Lag problems seems to come from the overly conservative thermal solutions. It slows down to a crawl at the smallest sign of heat. I live in a tropical country, so this turned out to be a problem, until I flashed some thermal mods.
- Battery problems seems to come from rogue apps. I had it, and it was caused due to rogue apps.
- I find the screen overly bright. Yet, I think I became sensible to light, I don't know. I use my laptop at 20% brightness at all times.
- Screen is gorgeous. So is the G2. FHD wouldn't hurt, as QHD is overkill, specially for the battery. If I could choose, I'd get a FHD G3. Colors and sharpness are excellent though. Did I mention it kills the battery big time? Yeah, like battery statistics line is pretty much horizontal with screen off, but when it turns on, it's like 60 degrees downward.
- Development is slow. Only this month it really has started, although this device has been launched months ago. Some devs were holding it, so LG wouldn't block them off on the next bootloader updates, I guess.
- The camera is outstanding. It's really a beast, apart from the small sensor. The OIS really makes up to it. The dual LED (white/amber) allows for very accurate colors, and the laser AF, even though I don't feel much about how it works (I can't really notice it to be ~this~ fast. It's just ok), I like to brag my phone can fire lasers - pew pew.
I think it's the best camera around, which doesn't, specially, breaks the phone body harmony, and take excellent pictures. Oh, and the front camera has a wide angle.
- It's not water-proof. Boo.
- I'll bring together everything I like, but doesn't need a special mention: Wireless charging, IR Blaster (which also learns and detects the remotes), KnockCode/KnockOn, centered volume/power buttons, MicroSD support, removeable battery (and it's pretty slim. You can keep a spare one in your wallet), good looking UI with great add-ons.
I think this pretty much sums it all. ROM Modding may not be your cup of tea, but you don't need much to have fun with the G3. If you live in a warm place like I do, you'd better fix those thermal configs to enjoy a much smoother G3. If you don't live, you're fine! Just use it
1. Install CloudyG3 (i'm still on 1.0 while 1.2 is out, lazy)
2. Apply ART
3. Enable Developer options and set transitions to 0.5
4. Fastest phone i ever used.
Optional:
5. Root
6. Installed a script from razz, the phone is faster.
7. Changed dpi from 640 to 540
Battery, insane... I had 47 hours with 3 hours of screen on time the other day, and had 6 hours sot on occassion over a period of 15-24 hours of usage.
Camera is optically stabilized, superb in good light, laser focused which makes it all the faster.
Screen is awesome.
Sound is awesomely loud. Louder than a friends Xperia Z3(front stereo speakers, pffft), even when the speaker is facing the opposite direction.
Would i recommend it? I would.
Even the official Lollipop is just around the corner..
it would be good if i could see a video of this updates of custom roms.. every video i've seen on youtube g3 is somehow not so fast..
i don't care about brighness i'll never set on 100%.. i just need speed and responsiveness

My Experience with Yu Yureka (Using since a week Now)

My experience so far after using it for 1 day
1) Camera quality: Its good at this price range the clarity is amazing as well as the sharpness front is also great(think about the price first before commenting in negative)
2) Video recording and playback: Video recording quality is really amazing it has capability to record in 1080x1920 and while playing any videos i has great viewing angles
3) Performance: So far i haven't faced any sort of lags i am using this device heavily and my multi task is loaded with full of apps still no lag
4) Battery: To be honest i am really happy with the battery performance i don't know about others,using with full brightness wifi on and continuously downloading and i charged only yesterday to 100% and till now it drops to 69% so i don't think battery will be an issue for people
5) Benchmarks: Got above 32000 score in Antutu,55 fps in Nenamark had tried only these two
6) Gaming: Played asphalt 8, modern combat 5 walking dead season 2 grand theft auto san andreas all on high graphics haven't found any lag apart from a little frame drop in san andreas rest totally amazing gaming experience
7) Storage: All installed application and apps data got downloaded in internal storage which is 16gb but we can move them in the external storage apart from the game data.
8) Call quality: Calling experience was great no issue so far
9) Heating issue: Not much only minor heating issue if paying heavy games rest no major heating issue
10) Audio: The only thing which disappoint me is the audio quality as the ring tone for incoming call and audio video plaback from the speakers is low,it might create some problem for some people, and rest from the headset it will damage your ear be careful
Conclusion: BEFORE COMMENTING IN NEGATIVE DO CHECK THE PRICE AND WHAT THIS DEVICE OFFERS WHICH HAS THE CAPABILITY TO COMPETE WITH HTC OPO AND OTHER MOBILE AT ABOVE 20000 RUPEES
Thanks 4 ur Review.

screen clarity is worst.
video recording, if call that hd recording, then for sure you have never use are not a camera person yaaaaak!
Slow mo video jerks in low light.

3. 3.5mm bug (i didn't faced it yet)
4. Blueish screen (i didn't faced it yet)
5. Checked tap to wake after disabling (faced it)
somebody said the price you gettng a good phone, yar put 3 to 5 thound more better better phone.

hahahahahahah
Salcykhan, You're just describing too much! Internal Speaker is so loud that you can hear it from far in a quiet room... Camera Quality is good, Low Light Pics are great, at least Look at its price. Screen is clear, 1280x720 is good for playing HD games... Might be problem in your Handset...
I haven't experienced any bug yet, the Double tap Wake up is all working Fine...
And even if there's a bug, Man! There's a software update option. Looks Like you forgot...
Regards
N'ayam
I faced a few software problems like the lockscreen wallpaper changes to default, even after setting Swiftkey as the default keyboard and using it for some time it chages back to default
and also the phone charges upto 99% but never to 100% I found that if we remove the cable and plug it again it shows 100%.
Some said photosphere works once. but on second time they need to force stop and clear data for google camera,
Then it takes them .. also only 1A charger for 615 device so itz taking 3 hrs to charge
proxy issue with scratch guard.. some one said to tighten screw below proxy sensor
52.C . Temp while gaming for 30 min.
i'm hearing a lot abt this device ? are these true

yup, the low light photography is grainy, but video recording & pics taken on gud lighting is excellent. sharp & focused.
Can't find any issues with screen clarity for a 720p screen. It has gud color reproduction & tonality.
The biggest issue is ext. speaker. Jeez, tht just muffled. Can barely hear anything well even on full volume in a low crowded room.
The earphones i got had decent quality, loud & punchy... no issues there. Call quality also good, the speaker sounds gud & can hear the conversation well even on mid volume settings.
Gaming with high end games was mostly lag free, the fone heats up considerably (but manageable) during extended gaming & camera usage, but thn which fone doesn't?

Rooting does not increase the volume. After rooting you can have access to the system files where you can make some changes that increases the ringtone volumes to acceptable levels.

MMX Yu Yureka Review

Hi there Everyone!
This is my Yureka Review, I got this Phone on 24th, Without Wasting Time...
Let's hit it
Please Correct me If I'm Wrong
1. Camera- So, This Phone's got A 13 MP back camera and 5MP front Camera...
The 13MP camera is great for Low Light Photos and Daylight pics are Awesome...
The CM camera App makes photos even Good...
The Back Camera shoots great Photos and Focus Makes it More Good...
The Front Cam is Awesome for taking Selfies with Camera Angle 88°... Really Great... I tell You!
2. Talking about the OS, It's got Cyanogen OS 11... Those who've used CyanogenMod may find it less customizable but those who haven't, Surely You'll love to Modify it...
3.Hardware
It's hardware is pretty good in ₹9K, I was getting the AnTuTu Benchmark Score 31291
I tell you, It's Really Great!!
4. Build Quality- The Phone is Nicely Made, With an LED Notifier at Top...
Volume Buttons on Left and Power Button at nearly Mid-Right
Jack at Top and Power at Bottom
If you get to Hold it, You'll Say- Man! It's so Light!
Yes!The first time I took it up, I thought the battery was not there put up inside but I was wrong, Even though the battery was there, It was light as air...
Well, Not actually...
It's Slim As Well, Quite Slim
I'm sure he was on workout and Dieting...
The back feels like some Carpet is put up... So comfortable and Strong Grip...
5. Bugs-
Now the Cons.

Hi there Everyone!
This is my Yureka Review, I got this Phone on 24th, Without Wasting Time...
Let's hit it
Please Correct me If I'm Wrong
1. Camera- So, This Phone's got A 13 MP back camera and 5MP front Camera...
The 13MP camera is great for Low Light Photos and Daylight pics are Awesome...
The CM camera App makes photos even Good...
The Back Camera shoots great Photos and Focus Makes it More Good...
The Front Cam is Awesome for taking Selfies with Camera Angle 88°... Really Great... I tell You!
2. Talking about the OS, It's got Cyanogen OS 11... Those who've used CyanogenMod may find it less customizable but those who haven't, Surely You'll love to Modify it...
3.Hardware
It's hardware is pretty good in ₹9K, I was getting the AnTuTu Benchmark Score 31291
I tell you, It's Really Great!!
4. Build Quality- The Phone is Nicely Made, With an LED Notifier at Top...
Volume Buttons on Left and Power Button at nearly Mid-Right
Jack at Top and Power at Bottom
If you get to Hold it, You'll Say- Man! It's so Light!
Yes!The first time I took it up, I thought the battery was not there put up inside but I was wrong, Even though the battery was there, It was light as air...
Well, Not actually...
It's Slim As Well, Quite Slim
I'm sure he was on workout and Dieting...
The back feels like some Carpet is put up... So comfortable and Strong Grip...
5. Bugs-
Now the Cons.

There is an issue with the proximity sensor, its not working some times.
Heating issue is present but it depends up on the apps. playing games like NFS is causing more heat than any normal games.
Rear cam is damn good no issues about that. never faced WIFI and random reboot issues
Yes, You might be having them but you see, They are only Software Bugs... Don't worry Man! We have software Updates Support...
There are many software bugs.
I think Cyanogen will fix all the bugs in future updates. No software is perfect out of the box! Let's see how cyanogen deals with the promises along with YU.
Reboot issue
I own Yureka & my phone restarted once or twice when I play game, especially Clash of Clans.
I guess this is the CPU heat issue, still checking. I have underclocked CPU to check if phone reboots randomly or not.
Will post results. Meanwhile if anyone have solution, I would be happy.
GK.

Hi,
So with these kind of issues like heating/reboot, etc.... you mean to say that we have some kind of solutions, and not to bother though every phone faces the same issues, if am i correct.
And, we can go and grab this phone though we get it below 10k which has good features where we dont sunch phone.
I'm impressed with 2GB-RAM mostly.

Hi. Thank you for reply.
Finally I have found solution.
I underclocked CPU to min 400 max 800 MHZ and set IO scheduler to noop (that is FIFO with very less CPU cycles)
I have found considerable less heat issue now without any lagging with COC. Also now battery lasts much longer than earlier. I am very happy. Cheers !
You could use this as a reference
Hey! For those wondering how the camera on the Yureka really is, here's a screencast of the same so that you get a feel of what it really is! youtu.be/oSkgd8jwCKs
I'm not allowed to post links so please add http:/ in front of the above address to view.
Else search for screen cast recordings on youtube of each phone. You'll get a feel of how the camera really is

[Q] Htc Desire 820 vs Samsung Galaxy S4

Hello! I have mega trouble, because I want to buy new phone. My current phone is Sony Xperia SP. Since the new phone I demand smooth operation, good quality camera and good speaker. I hesitate because I do not know which phone plays louder and who has a better camera. I read that HTC has a problem with noise during recording and it made me very worried. Nor do I know that your phone better talking. I always wanted to have a HTC, but now in the current situation, I was a little offended. My situation is that I have no choice other phones.
Thanks and I greet they all

i had s4 and bought htc now. Let me put it in short story:
s4:
- **** laggy software
- great camera
- bad sound system
- nice colorful screen, but small
- good that buttons are not on screen
- removable battery
this htc:
- great super fast software
- colorful screen, little difference to s4, s4 has more aturated colors
- big screen
- bad that buttons are on screen
- super great speakers
- no removable battery
- nice power saving options
- super fast procesor-64 bit, which is the ffuture of processors and will be even faste in android 5.0
This is it for now. If you dont mind big phone and you want great performance, then definitly but htc. If you want crappy housing smaller phone, with better screen and camera, than buy s4. But s4 is realy outdated. Ask more if you want
Thanks! You say that the HTC plays better than samsung, you can estimate how much?
The battery keeps better in HTC?
How does the quality of calls on both phones?
Do u you there is noise on recordings from a microphone?
Thanks! You say that the HTC plays better than samsung, you can estimate how much? Yes, htc has 2 front speakers, s4 has one small on the back
The battery keeps better in HTC? Yes, you even have power saving mode, and i dont see any difference in performance with power saving on or off, just more battery
How does the quality of calls on both phones? hmm, dont know realy, i dont talk much. Didnt notice any diff
Do u you there is noise on recordings from a microphone? not realy, tried to record myself and not problems
It reminded me of another question. If you are using throttling phenomenon occurs?
