Hi everyone, I'm new to the LG G2, but not the forums, nor rooting. I was wondering how everyone likes there phones and if there's any problems I should know of. I just switched to AT&T, and are you only aloud to switch phones once within the 14 day period?

I'm also new to the phone but not the forum or rooting. I've had my phone for 3 weeks now and I really like it so far. I'm coming from a galaxy s3. I haven't encountered any issues with it whatsoever. I've tried a few custom roms but so far IMO, stock rooted is the best because of smoothness and battery life. The battery life is definitely the most impressive aspect of the phone for me. Battery life easily doubles any other device I have ever owned.

Picked it up as soon as it came out. Best phone I've ever owned.

I too have just picked up this phone. Trying to figure out the whole KK and root thing at the moment. But this phone seems to be a beast on battery which is why I went with it. So far I'm liking it well, now if I can just get off of the 4.2.2 and still retain root I'll really love this.

Not to hijack the thread but I just rooted the latest stock KK for our phone (even had the latest 5mb update for gwallet and g+). It was really easy. Just use ioroot25. The latest ioroot now works for KK with no special instructions needed.

If you like the G2 give the Flex a try. I loved the G2 but just happened to stop by a T-Mobile store and played with a Flex. Great phone!

I am also very new here and to the lg g2, I have rooted my att lg g2 using ioroot25 can you elaborate more on how to get Kitkat on my phone, its currently on 4.2.2 with a sim card from Aio Wireless if that matters, I would appreciate the help

Get yourself a case, a good case.
I just dropped the G2 yesterday, my first drop in many years and the entire screen shattered hence touchscreen isn't working at all. Also possibly the usb port got damaged too.
Just let you guys know how fragile this phone is.

Sorry for the late response. I have a job that occupies a lot of my time so I turn notifications off. If you haven't seen it already, there is a thread in this same section that was just created...........
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2722536
It explains the process step by step.
Edit: Actually, I think the guide starts off with you already being on kit Kat. The way I did it was using the tot and dll file for 4.4.2 along with the lg flash tool to bring my phone to stock kit Kat. (My phone didn't want to automatically receive the kit Kat ota and i didn't want to bother calling in and having it "pushed".) Then I accepted the minor update bringing my phone to d80020k (latest software version). Finally, I followed the method above using ioroot25.

So how's 4.4.4

Anything significantly different about the user experience with 4.4.4 vs 4.4 for the Maxx?
Any issues loading up on the Maxx?
Is root preserved with survival mode? Any issues with xposed?
Is it worth upgrading?

Instead of creating new threads, you should probably visit the main thread which answers all of those questions

I figured it would be a good idea to start a new thread now that all the initial excitement has subsided and people could formulate a complete response about their experience as a whole.

Or join in on the thread that has answered these questions numerous times. But hey whatever works for you

My opinion: if you're rooted/WP off.....don't update. There's nothing about this update that makes it worth losing WP off. Yeah its cool that were up to date with nexus but 4.4 rooted beats the update to me.

Well... it's the same as 4.4, there's no or little visual changes, but, at least ART is much stable compared to 4.4...

I'm of the same mind. No one has said anything compelling enough about 4.4.4 to make me give up root & wp off.
I might feel differently if there was a working WiFi tether hack, but that only matters because I'm unlimited data.
I'd said for 8 months Droid Maxx was just about perfect and didn't need root to be a great device, until they broke FoxFi functionality.
Still, faster ART and reports of improved battery life are airways tempting. I used to get an easy 36 hours on this phone, for months I'm lucky if I get 18 hours.

Im not rooted yet, I just wanna make sure I know what Im going to do about root and later install soak test.
Things in this phone seems to be difficult.

I received an OTA to 4.4.4 this morning! Battery is definitely holding better than on 4.4 and a camera works better than before.

Works great...can't really tell yet if battery life is better..but "Android System" is certainly reported as using a much lower percentage than before the update...
No lag or stuttering to be seen (though never really had any before either)...
Overall solid update, but almost everything is under the hood type stuff..so if you're happy with current battery life, and really need w/p off...then you may want to hold out...

Is anyone else losing hope we'll see an official lollipop update from at&t?

I've been searching all over and ive found nothing. It's the begining of a new year and I'm starting to think we're not getting a lollipop update anymore..

I always believe all model branded by us carriers will get any update last of all other makes.

Yeah, it's been that way pretty much with every phone I've ever owned. I wish phone manufactures wouldn't allow carriers to intervene. But at least usually an international ROM is ported over to the us models.. I wish someone would do that

I just want it to come so i can get the latest cloudy.

Right. That's the ROM I wanted to use.

Custom Roms.
That's why we use custom roms. The unofficial cyanongen is a good substitute for a lollipop update.

Really??? When have you ever known AT&T to let anyone know about an update until it is in process? I think we will get an L update for two reasons. AT&T has always seemed to allow at least one major upgrade of versions and the phone is barely 6 months old.
Besides that, the rollout of L for international G3s started less than 2 months ago. U.S. carriers typically take time to "test" (i.e. install their bloatware and figure out how to lock down the phone) the new updates.

Yeah I'm getting very fed up with all this too... I use liquidsmooth in the meantime and it works great, but I just miss the LG camera... Also other features but mainly the camera... I had the nexus 5 before this phone and I loved the timely updates... Too bad it don't work the same with this phone...

I was being a little over dramatic. I know eventually we'll get an update, but instead of trying to add all that bloat and strip things from the software they should be trying to get it out for the users as soon as possible.

Unfortunately this is the case with all android phones and tablets. The latest and greatest hits the Nexus lines first. Other phones are at the mercy of the phone manufacturer (as well as the carriers in some cases).

With all the custom roms and cm12 for our phone right around the corner. Who needs an official bloated at&t L Rom. Custom roms run so much better than stock anyway. .....and L is good but very over rated K.K. 4.4.4 is working great. Be patient you will get your stock at&t L by the latest March
********************************
Update today I got a notification to update I am ON stock d85010d
I have the phone a week this was my 1 st notification I wonder if this is the 10f or something else I haven't rooted yet. Did anyone else get this today and if so what is it ?

It's 10f I got the notice today as well. If you are rooted it will not break root.

I believe it'll come to us soon but I can care less if the update comes. I'm fine with what were using now.

the only problem with all the Lollipop Roms we currently have is that the camera app sucks, we loose 4K recording, Laser Focus, Slow motion and front facing flash. Plus the quality of the pictures is not even near to the quality of the stock camera.

1cwolf has been rooting the stock roms and tweaking them I am sure he will do the same when L drops. He is making debloated ver also. That's prob what I'll stick with cause the stock Rom does run very good. I always get better WiFi with stock roms more powerfull WiFi signal

What size was the 10F update? I am betting that is a small update before lollipop comes in...
let's not forget...the AT&T G2 was one of the first phones to get KitKat. Besides Nexus devices are there any other devices with Lollipop? LG is moving pretty quick to get the international version of Lollipop out. Where is Samsung and HTC with Lollipop for their devices?

[Q] Just got Nexus 5, regarding 5.0.2 ?

Hi all
I picked up a 5 month old nexus 5 yesterday running 5.0.1 stock, its a wonderful very fast phone, I'm coming from a moto g 2013 so the speed bump is noticeable.
So far everything seems to be working really well, i cant get a GPS lock inside a building but it works fine outside (the moto g easily got a fix inside) but who need GPS indoors anyway
I'm going to try out the phone for the next week or 2 and see how it performs, I've read battery life can be disappointing but it was factory reset yesterday and battery life seems fine so far, i guess ill have to give it a few more cycles to be fair.
I also use GPS/maps a fair bit for my work, on the moto, google maps used very little battery , any experiences anyone with battery life and GPS on the nexus ?
One further question, do you think the upcoming 5.0.2 update will improve the battery life or is 5.0.1 what i can best expect ? also any ideas when the official 5.0.2 update is pushed to my phone (its in the uk).
Thanks
Michael

5.0.2 was only a fix or two, mainly for the Nexus 7. Highly unlikely Google will push 5.0.2 factory images/OTA for other devices since it's almost pointless and would be a waste of bandwidth. Custom ROMs have merged 5.0.2 in anyways since it was no big deal.

FRD-L04 - stay on EMUI 4 / Android 6 or upgrade to 5 / 7? (Battery concerns)

I bought the Honor 8 (US version) as a holdover as my older Nexus5 was dying. I managed to get it from NewEgg when it was on sale for $239US with the included Honor accessory box, so I can't complain about the price, and it is the fastest phone I have ever had. I grew to hate it at first, but have found workarounds for most of the problems I had with it. I have no real interest in rooting or modding at this point, like Danny Glover in Lethal Weapon, "I'm too old for this ****".
I'm currently on the stock shipping software:
FRD-L04
EMUI 4.1
Android 6.0, 10/1/16
FRD-L04C567B162​
And updater shows that the following is available: (I've shut off the notifications for this)
FRD-L04C567B360​
I have decided that I can live with the stupid bugs and my primary concern is battery life, which seems to be freaking amazing on this stock build. In lurking on these forums, I have heard nothing but reports of horrible battery life after upgrading to Nougat (compared to stock). Are there any newer stock builds that have good battery life without endless tweaking or modding? Or should I just stay where I am until my next phone?
Thanks for your opinions...
<thread**** with Chuck Norris memes>

Well, I have the honor 8 with Android Nougat and the battery life is good for me. I have about 5 hrs screen with wifi all day. I think the most important thing Is not to worry about running out of battery power when you are out of home and this phone complies with that
Enviado desde mi FRD-AL00 mediante Tapatalk

I wasn't on Marshmallow for long before I upgraded to Nougat but I haven't seen any noticeable difference between the two. I keep location, wifi, data, and bluetooth on 24/7 and I go a full day on a charge. I'm not on the phone constantly but I do use it throughout the day. I have two high usage apps on the phone, an Allstate driving app and the Samsung Gear S3 app and I still get an entire day.

Marshmallow is the best in battery life. However, B385 is so close to marshmallow when it comes to battery life and I have no complaints.
I get around 5h of heavy use (games, youtube, browsing...etc) all apps in the background, wifi and bt almost all the day on.
Add to it battery standby is pretty good

Actually when u first update u will experience bad battery life for the first 2 days or so. But the phone does it's own thing and fixes the battery life. When I bricked my phone while trying to root I decided to fix it by rolling back to marshmallow to solve my issue. So that's what I did and I was back on the first build which the phone shipped with. Since I didn't have a phone for abt 2 days since my phone was bricked I started installing apps and chatting on Snapchat and then I realized I'll have to factory reset after updating to Nougat. I held back for a day or so but I really missed the stock Launcher on EMUI 5 so I ended up updating but I didn't factory reset my phone. After that I received the B385 update and I updated to that as well without wiping. I'm using phone without wiping from EMUI 4 for the past 4 months and I've had great battery life. I was on vacation a month back and the phone worked flawlessly.
So it's fine update ur phone. Don't bother wiping it as well but be prepared for bad battery life for the first 2-3 says till ur device figures things out. After that it will be just as reliable as before in the battery life front.
Note: I'm not rooted. I have a locked bootloader and full stock software.

EMUI 4.1 is the best battery optimised where the emui 5.0 don't.
compared to 5.0 ,the marshmellow (emui 4.1 ) is the best.

Thanks for the opinions.
So assuming I were to go ahead, is the correct procedure for the FRD-L04 to accept the OTA to B360, then use the dload method to go to B385 (latest one I can find for FRD-L04)?

You can just update safely with OTA. EMUI 5.0 is not that bad either. There are lot of UI improvements and batter RAM management, shortcut tiles, batter notification management. Battery may be concern for many but there is not much difference, at least not more than 30 minutes for sure. I am on EMUI 5.0 on another phone but still manage to get 6+ hours SOT easily on an average and can stretch upto 9-10 hours if want to. Been on EMUI 5.0 on that phone since February.
