Ultimate Off-Topic Thread - LG Optimus L90

Well, @aSuperSaiyanG0D and I decided it'd be a good idea to bring an OT thread to the forums
So I'll keep things short and simple to start with. This thread is not for discussing issues with phones or anything, it's for the the exact opposite.
What are everyone's thoughts on the iPhone 6?
When do you think Android L will release?
Anybody pick up Destiny since it released?

All I have to say bout iPhone 6....

I literally just showed that to my sister and she said, "I don't care how great an Android is, I'll always want an iPhone."
It's a social symbol these days. And I guess in our society our value is what others perceive of us. So yeah, people are going to keep buying those things. Breaks my heart.
Although I will say, the slow motion video could be kind of cool. Not that I'd see myself using it.

The only thing bout iOS that I'll admit is kinda nice, is when you jailbreak, and something screws up, it's very very hard to brick it. Just use iTunes and you can just restore it.
But then again, that would be to easy huh? Cx

Haha, I can't count how many times I've restored my phones via KDZ flashes... Nearing a hundred I assume lol.

Wow look apple made the iPhone 6 bigger and faster never saw that coming. Not really ground breaking stuff
I think that ios8 is a nice update for the ifags.
Has is some cool stuff, all things android has had for awhile.
But I still wouldn't buy a iPhone. In my opinion iPhone are the Nokia of the 90s, generic as [email protected]#k.
Really looking forward to see what android brings with its android L release.
The Sony xperia z2 has slow motion camera too

You hit the nail on the head. It's a status thing. Most people spend way too much time worrying about what others think of them. This distorts their own perception of themselves. I figured out early in life, as a teenager, that it really doesn't matter to me what others think of me. I am who I am the way I am.
On another note... CM11 currently building and I am waaayyy past where I was getting errors earlier. No longer using CAF kernel. Switched to LGs kernel base instead, for the time being anyways. Having to do a fresh build so it won't finish til @ 0400 EST.

Since we are of topic friends of mine are doing a media project
It's low grade comedy but it's funny

Exactly how I feel, too! I'd rather gauge out my eyeballs and pull out my fingernails than "fit in". All that leads to is either hating or being hated. Life's way too short to worry about what the popular girl or guy at school is wearing or using.
I'm pretty much of a misfit anyway so there's no way I'll be able to fit in even if I tried. Hahaha.

Before owning this phone I just wrote off LG as a Samsung copy cat. Considering how similar the UI and features they share. After owning this phone I have come to the conclusion that LG UI(whatever they call their UI) is touchwiz done right. Much like how I feel about MIUI iOS done right as well...still can't wait until more AOSP roms are present. Hoping this unreal price attracts devs to tinker with it

I agree and am grateful for all the work you and other devs do. Any plans on doing a ROM based off of LG stock ROM like HTC and Samsung has? Not a request nor trying to sound pushy just curious

I'm running the UEALD3 Stock, Rooted, and Deodexed rom, works fine.
This mod does change your icons to that Android blue...
Any chance of a version that keeps the gray icons? Softer on the eyes imho

I would have to agree with him. If it only applies to your ROM, than it would be best to put it in the same thread as your ROM. If it is for other ROMs as well as samtran suggests, than a separate thread is fine. My opinions
But I would like to know which ROMs it does work with. Does it work with pure rooted stock?

I'm pretty sure it said (before I added the stock version) that it was for my ROM.
There's no pleasing some people on this site is there? We sit behind our desks for hours figuring out how to do the things people ask us to do, way more than we normally would just for ourselves. And yet, somebody always has to complain about something. You posted it in the wrong place, your post doesn't say the right thing, your mod isn't exactly what I wanted, can you do it over?
Then people complain when we get angry, or just stop doing things.
Go figure.

Many of us do appreciate your (and ALL the devs) time and efforts.
As a dev myself (.NET sorry!), as much as I would love to learn to muck around with Android, I just don't have the time or energy to get into it.
But I do know all the pain and frustration involved in debugging and getting out a clean build!
There does seem to be a lot of etiquette policing on this site...I guess a lot of people...especially non-devs...don't realize all the time and work that goes into all these mods and roms.

When you say multiple versions could that include T2 10.1? Im looking for what your offering but theres not much being offered for the 10.1. I'm running stock rooted at present on my 10.1. these early stages of development are crucial to all models so I'm checking all models to see whats going on with the new GT2's,
you have a good start with the 7" and thats great, I want to encourage you to keep up the good work.
Thanks, Pp.
PS. If you don't see MODERATOR in title, just ignore them, if you engage them with replies then it keeps them going on with lots of BLAH BLAH BLAH, in the end it deosn't help anyone.
For anyone interested in a challenge... the screenshot button is still there, it's just been shrunk down to a 1 pixel by 1 pixel transparent button/image right up by the recents button...
See if you can hit it! It took a while, but I actually got it.

does not work on same firmware
( gt-p3100 IML74K.P3100XXALD4 )
system ui crash
'Stock' version working on rooted stock ROM and Kernel, 4.0.3 / 3.0.8, IML74K.P3113UEALD3.
Also to help anyone new to this, the MOD file is installed by flashing it using CWM or similar, just as with other types of update zips.
Thanks!
No need to try this mod. Update your from to lf2 v.4.0.4 for p3100. In that you get a option to remove the screen capture option from the home screen.

Farewell all

Just posting a farewell thread folks, ordered a white Nexus 5 32gb 399.99 from Google Play on Friday it got here today, Monday. I activated it over the phone with Sprint in under 5 minutes and threw the sim card from HTC one into the Nexus 5. Boom, instantly works beautifully. I am getting LTE so much more then I got with the HTC one I am barely ever on 3g anymore! Also everyone used to complain to me about call quality on the One, this problem is now gone no one complains anymore. The only thing I miss are the speakers, everything else is better in every way. I use a portable 30 ish dollar bluetooth speaker every once and a while when I care enough to grab it. Snapdragon 800 is amazing and the 8mp camera is better then htc 4mp "ultrapixel" bogus. The HTC one was nice for a while but this phone is an upgrade for me. Going to go sell my HTC one on craigslist or ebay for 350 now. Goodbye everyone! try to enjoy your htc ones!

Lol. Why are you posting a farewell? Honestly, unless you're a developer, I doubt anyone really cares... I switched to the Nexus 5 as well, and agree with you on pretty much everything. I just don't see a reason to tell everyone about it because I don't develop or theme or anything so it hardly matters. I'm still keeping my One anyway, just in case...

Fair, on average about 700 to 800 points higher on Quadrant than the old phone, although keep in mind much of the Exhibit's score revolved around very high I/O readings. With a normal I/O score, the Exhibit would be about 1000-1200 points lower. You can look at the attached screenshots to see what I mean. The Exhibit is on the left, S2 on the right.
Some folks over there posted very exaggerated scores of over 4000 which they got with TW ROMs that had 2Ghz OC and probably used V/R for I/O.

Oh very true, I have no illusions about the hardware on this device. It's as old as the Exhibit, in fact. It does have sufficient hardware for what I need however. The Exhibit is just so limited on CPU and RAM it drove me crazy when I used it. I learned you couldn't make a Kia a Jaguar with it basically, no matter how hard I tried. The S2 crushes it, but let's all face it, that's not saying much.

Fair, on average about 700 to 800 points higher on Quadrant than the old phone, although keep in mind much of the Exhibit's score revolved around very high I/O readings. With a normal I/O score, the Exhibit would be about 1000-1200 points lower. You can look at the attached screenshots to see what I mean. The Exhibit is on the left, S2 on the right.
Some folks over there posted very exaggerated scores of over 4000 which they got with TW ROMs that had 2Ghz OC and probably used V/R for I/O.

I take it you mean the Light, cause we know the Exhibit isn't doing those kinds of numbers! Hey the Light has much better hardware than the S2, no question. However I didn't want it without root. I won't have any phone that I can't do what I want to do with it. Getting rid of bloat for starters. If your device gets a work around for the bootloader and some established devs get involved, there are some very nice possibilities in store.

We have root cwm TWRP debloated stock. And a stock based rom. Like peach sunrise was in the beginning. Its called Lightwave. Decent. But not perfect. A few devs are trying for a CM11. One just posted a progress report. I would tag him but his name is hard to tag (@ root @ ) no spaces. And no parenthesis.
I have been working on porting stuff. Gotten pretty good thnx to the exhibit being free to do what I want. I have been using it to fine tune my porting capabilities. The tool I use to use never was quite right..... so anyways. How are things on your side of the tracks?

I wish I could tell you they were good, but not really. The S2 has been a miserable failure from almost month one. I honestly hate it almost as much as I did the Exhibit. ROM after ROM has failed to fully deliver the goods, mainly due to the dated hardware this thing has. I really goofed on this purchase. Every time I think I have the perfect setup, it bombs later. That story sounds familiar doesn't it? Right now I am running PA on it and thanks to the latest Fly On Mod Alpha 3 it's a fairly decent setup for now. I'd like to quit on this thing and wait until the next phone to start ROM flashing again. You can't make a Honda run like a Porsche, bottom line. BTW this is the last Samsung I will EVER buy again! EVER!
On the Galaxy Light, one of the people at work bought one and no offense, I wasn't impressed. Only a few days after she had it, she was asking what was causing some of the FCs she was getting. The thing was lagging and it wasn't until I put Nova launcher on it some of the lag went away. Just another Samsung hunk of junk IMO. But if you are still loving it, I am happy for you at least. Development is not going to really go anywhere on it, at least where you will get official support. Samsung has already moved on to the Avant. Let's be honest. We both need to get a 1+1 or Nexus to really have a phone that delivers. I plan on it soon too. Also good on you for expanding your skills. I made a port for the S2 but it had some bugs. This stuff just consumes too much time too.
Good to hear from you bro BTW. Good old Rebel ROM, it really was one of the good ones for the Exhibit. At least I have learned a lot here.

Hey, AD. Good to hear from you, again. Sad news about the S2. My Light was never a problem, and my wife still uses it. When i updated the rom, the phone lost root. It's easy enough to get it back, but my wife doesn't really care. The bloat is still gone, and now we have VoLTE. Pretty good swap. I've moved to a Nexus 5. It's not rooted, either (tried, using the Nexus root kit, but it wasn't working. I think i messed up getting the correct driver), but again, no bloat so no worries. With a 32gb internal drive, I'll never have storage problems. It's taking some time to get used to the size, but that's not a big deal. There are certainly lots of roms available, should i choose to go that route.
Again, good to see you again.

Great phone but just really got tired of the whole gimmick it was turning out to be. So I decided to check out the nexus 5... Big time different from the Samsung series of phones but I Love it!! It's fast sleek and just all around incredible.. This is the total Android experience I have been waiting for.. anyhow I just wanted to introduce myself so hi all... I've read a lot of threads here and y'all seem like a bunch of cool guys and girls I'm just glad I made the step.. The development here is amazing so I'm looking forward to hanging and having fun

Embrace the sense of freedom, it feels amazing when you're coming from a HTC or Sammy device... so, SO many roms and kernels to chose from and they all mostly work together, unlike for example HTC One X where half the kernels dont work with the other half of the roms and you gotta repack and flash the kernel through fastboot... what a chore just to switch kernel. And S-off... ffff... Anyways welcome to the world of Nexus and hope all your flashing experiences go smoothly! :good::good::good:
and LOOOOL at the S5 comparison with the bandaid ahahahah! good one

yeah you hit the nail right on the head a phone full of junk!!! that and knox I really dont understand why sammy added that..
All i actually did was roll into tmobile to pay my bill and while i was waiting I saw this device just chilling there looking like a chocolate bar so as i started messing with it I realized that some of the roms i flashed on my note 3that i really liked originated from this devise.. So i sat down looked it up, checked out some reviews played with it some more and realized this is the true android experience i crave.. well actually i pulled up the xda site to see how much "love" this device was getting and that kinda sold me.. the development is huge here... Im running droidkang right now which im loving..
one question tho is there any way when i flash a rom how do i keep my music from being deleted?? What i do is basically just redownload it from my laptop, is there an easier way?? Im just used to having that internal mem card... thanks for the warm welcome all..
WELCOME

I read that Samsung is planning on making the wearable electronics compatible with all Android devices soon.
Just ordered the Nexus from Tmobile.com
Had the s3 for 2 years, was considering the Note 3 and S5 (i have a love/hate relationship with the S5)
But like somebody earlier said I crave for stock android plus it helps that my mother has a nexus 5 and 7(2013).

The comparison is not exactly valid. You're comparing a smaller 4.6" screen with HD resolution only (Z3C) with a 5.0" Full-HD (X Perf.).
Think it's more realistic to compare it to the Z2, Z3, Z3+ and Z5...

Thanks for the review...
I have a few things.. The phone going to 3g is normal, in Denmark when making a call to a number from another provider it goes to 3g but when making call to one using same provider it uses 4g for HDVOICE.
LTE is the same as 4G even though it is not 4g but that is another story. It is the same...so no big deal there.
I will await my phone and I look forward to it, my old z3 is in bad shape ?
Thanks again and have a great weekend ?

HellRoot,
Sure thing man!
Well here a phone w/o VoLTE should stay in 4G at least, but I guess if the one is not FROM (or locked) a carrier, it's not gonna get 4G. I just found out what I'm getting during a call is that it's switching back & forth between 3G and H+, or 3.5G. Some real BS eh? lol
Yeah NOT during a call my int'l XP shows LTE, which I know now is the same as 4G LTE. But it's DURING a call that is what I'm concerned with. Apparently there's more to it than just the VoLTE-certification, b/c my phone is no different than the T-Mo Z1s (which again does NOT have VoLTE either) EXCEPT that it's unlocked and int'l.
Yeah I had the Z3 too and I LOVED it!! Got the S7 but it just wasn't the same. lol Tried the HTC 10 too but still.........to me, Sony is still the best. The Z3 had better battery life than the XP does though, so make sure to get that 360 Hibernation Master app (full paid version!) too. See my review for all the details. Also a QC 2.0 or esp 3.0 charger will help deal with that too.
YW. You too buddy!!

This phone is finally a fine replacement for my z3c. The z5c has been a huge disappointment, horrible battery life, average camera, constant resets or firmware reinstalls.
First off, it's ridiculous that the contacts app force closes. Not sure how that doesn't get caught in beta. Aside from that the phone stays cool, is fast, takes amazing photos, and is eminently stable.

Hey Bialynia,
Yeah I really love it too! I wish it had a bigger battery like my Z3 did, but it's still pretty good, esp when using the 360 Hibernation Master app with it. Works like Stamina Mode but better.
Yeah I think it's ridiculous too. I started a thread on here a few days ago about it. MGS seems to have found a fix, but it didn't work for me, though it might for you? Take a look at the thread here. Let me know if it works for you or not (if you try it)!
I agree on all points....... the camera is definitely better than the HTC 10's and even my now former Galaxy S7's! More detailed than the 10, and more color accurate (and not oversaturated) than the S7's. It runs and loads up apps much quicker than the S7 did, and that had an extra GB of RAM on it! The speakers sound much better than the S7's super awful lone speaker, it doesn't skip while playing music through MicroUSB port with headphones like the S7 constantly did, looks really premium too, etc. I have absolutely no regrets about buying it this phone.
I'm hoping to have an unlocked US version of the X performance possibly late this week and will post thoughts.
lindseybp,
Nice. Despite Sony Mobile not advertising it for the US XP, many people are claiming that the US XP WILL in fact be IP65/68 compliant. It'd be nice if someone (not saying you lol) could test that. Others on here say sometime soon (if not already) someone will develop a flash for the US XP that will actually activate the fingerprint sensor. You may want to ask around on here about that if you want to use it. They say it won't require root or even unlocking of the bootloader, which is extra nice. lol

Yeah it would. lol So far I've been told you need something called Flashtool (bookmark that link and download now) and then the FTF file (int'l individual firmware file which will just activate the fingerprint sensor, vs the full int'l firmware file which will change everything, but you may not want that.) It's nice b/c unlocking the bootloader on an Xperia phone has been known to permanently mess up the camera, but this doesn't require that or again rooting either. I'd also check through these threads with the word "firmware" being the search term used for the XP. Or just start your own requesting that FTF file.
Haha again, I WASN'T implying you should test that, but someone. I'm sure someone on YouTube will soon enough too, so I'd keep checking there.

I started having other issues with XP this weekend. It randomly restarted like twice on its own, and now after doing another factory reset, I'm noticing that during calls where I have Speakerphone off the screen is STILL not turning off. So returning it for a new one, and am hoping I'll have the same luck MGS did with everything including the Contacts app. lol
