[REF/TIPS/TRICKS] New Phone? Check here first

Congratulations on your new Purchase. The Tmobile LG G2x is a beast. Like all new devices, you may experience new service options and features you may not be familiar with and may cause some trouble down the line if not set up properly. We also want to make sure you are away of all of the known issues and some faulty units so you are aware and can check while still within a reasonable exchange window.
1. Get Connected! By default you won't be able to access the SD card via USB because it is defaulted to mount the Internal Storage, which requires the LG Driver.
To get around this, or if you only want/need access to the SDCard go to [Settings>SDCard and Phone Storage] and check "Mass Storage Only". This option doesn't require special drivers and will operate like most other phones.
The folder hierarchy is as follows:
Code:
Internal Storage: /sdcard
External Storage: /sdcard/_ExternalSD
1A. How to Delete your LG Drivers to use MASS STORAGE and to advert the Blue Screen of Death:
Obviously on Windows: Go to Start>Control Panel>Programs and Features find "LG Android Drivers" in the list and uninstall.
2. The first big problem on a few handsets is a backlight bleeding. You can test this by viewing a black screen in a dark room. You should have a solid color throughout. If you have really bad bright corners, you may be a victim of the bleed. While not quite a set back, it may be noticeable while watching movies or playing games in the future. If this is something that bothers you, I advise to swap it out for another unit.
3. There seems to be lots of "weird" issues ranging from grayed out options or behaviors such as lockscreen sounds not working. Most are assumed from faulty Titanium Backup restores or by simply skipping the initial setup. It is recommended that if you have done any of these things, to do hard format and set it up manually, recreating backups and program restores.
4. Like other later handsets by Tmobile, you may see WiFi Calling in the App Drawer. It works fantastic and is great for desperate times when you don't have available cell service. What you need to know is that it is ENABLED by default. The problem is WiFi Calling is designed to disable your actual Cell radio to save battery. What this means is that if you enable your Wireless and bounce around stores or in/out of WiFi service, you may be missing calls and messages while you are offline.
I recommend turning WiFi Calling OFF and enabling it only when needed.
5. WiFi is set to go into sleep mode after X amount of inactive minutes to conserve battery also. While a great feature, if used in conjunction with WiFi Calling, you may find your WiFi goes to sleep and you can start missing calls and messages also. To change this to go [Settings>Wireless & networks>WiFi Settings] + Hit Menu>Advanced]:
Change WiFi Sleep Policy to: Never
6. LG, like most other manufactures, develop their own drivers which may or may not be compatible with everything. With the LG G2x we are finding that some Bluetooth profiles may not play nice with your gadgets. Please check these as soon as possible. Some items may be Car Stereos, Specific programs using certain bluetooth profiles, and handheld gadgets such as gamepads or wireless speakers. Most will work but a few reports suggest the drivers may be off. Again, for your satisfaction, please check as soon as possible.
7. Root:
-Enable "USB debugging" [Settings>Applications>Development] and connect your phone to your computer via USB.
-Install ADB Drivers LG Driver.
-Run SuperOneClick: SuperOneClick
-Choose the option "Root".
8. Get rid of Bloatware using Root and Root Explorer (from market):
Here are a list of apps you can delete from the (/system/app/) folder:
Code:
AppPack
TeleNav
NOVA Demo
NFSShift
LMIRescue (LogMeIn.Rescue)
LMIRescueSecurity
EAPK = EA Mobile
MyAccount.apk = "My Account" and "My Device"
ZinioReader
ZinioSettingsProvider
9. There was also a report of using a HTC EVO Micro HDMI cable that shorted out the phone. This was a big deal over in the EVO thread. The problem is the way the cable was made and can short out with the external metal casing. If you purchased one of these I would proceed with caution.
10. If you want to make a solid backup of your current configuration or FLASH ROMS then you'll need ClockworkMod Recovery. There are two current methods to doing this. Both work but this is the best option because you can boot into Recovery via Volume Down + Power in case something gets screwed up and you get thrown into a Bootloop. The other method is by simply downloading Rom Manager via the Market and installing it that way. Although the second method does not allow booting directly into the Recovery console. So just do yourself a favor and download the latest ClockWorkMod NvFlash App for Windows
Feel free to add to this or perhaps add this information to the Wiki. Please give me a THANKS if this information was useful.

thanks, getting phone wendesday and will do all this. shouldn't the charging battery and discharge thing and factory reset be on there also from what i read.

Very helpful! Thanks a lot

This requires a big Thanks. Good job.

Can you unroot with that method of rooting? I'm afraid to root because I'm not tech and android savvy and have no idea what I am doing. Plus, I have all macintosh computers, will downloading that stuff be a problem?

This is excellent. I figured most of this stuff out on my own, but for anyone still trying to figure out his or her device, you've pretty much taken care of everything. Needs to be stickyed.

Thanks a lot gubidi, I will look at it when I get a chance. I'm a newbie at this stuff so I hope I don't damage my phone.

No problem, this is my first Android phone too. Developers have really simplified these commands to help out us noobs

How do you reboot? Power + ?????

Well Root just gives you admin access, which means you can do anything. Some programs require root to really get down to business, such as some of the better backup programs so they can backup a lot of the stock apps and personal settings.
Once you root there is no reason to unroot. It doesn't change anything, except permissions.
And not to worry, any application that requires root will pop up asking for access which you can accept or deny.
The main reason for Root is to use Rom Manager, which installs a custom recovery so you can flash custom roms and other files that can alter the look or functionality of certain parts of the OS. If you have no intent on altering the existing OS, you don't need root access.
Without Root, you will still be able to upgrade to new official upgrades and fixes.

Good question. On my Nexus One you hold the Track Ball, Vol Down, and Power. Lacking a trackball I guess there is not a way. Would be nice since there isn't a "Reboot" in the power menu on stock android.

Okay, well I plan on changing the look of the phone most likely, not I think mostly what I want to use it for is to delete bloatware like the t-mobile apps that may be using up a lot of my battery. Then is it worth rooting?
And also once you root it, is it complicated to alter the look and functionality?

My G2X and my Nissan Altima 08 doesn't go well over Bluetooth. No sound. I thought that was fixed in Froyo

good one !

AppPack- is it applicationsProvider.apk?

there's a reboot widget in the market. works great.

Can we delete/freeze SmartShare? I guess it only works with LG TVs.

Black Screen - control NON ROOTED android through PC

I am using an HTC Vivid on AT&T that is NOT ROOTED, I fell on my phone and now my screen comes up black (think I broke the LCD). I can still receive calls and I believe messages as my green message light blinks. I need to know if there is a product that will let me view/control the android phone screen on my PC without having to install anything on the phone itself as I can't see anything on the screen so I can backup my SMS messages, apps, etc... before moving to my new phone. Most of the threads I have read point to solutions for ROOTED phones which don't help me.
thanks!

Probably (but probably not worth the trouble)

So if you connect the phone by usb, it's probably asking you if you want to allow it to be mounted on the PC, but you have no way to answer, right? Similarly, no way to get it into adb mode. So those are out.
Even with the screen dead, you should be able to get the phone into fastboot mode (check the forums for the Vivid to find out how, probably involves holding the volume buttons for a while while you reboot). If you then install fastboot on your pc, you should be able to download the whole content of the ROM. Then with some reasonable effort, you should be able to untangle everything and read your messages. It can probably be done under windows, but would be a hell of a lot easier under linux, and it will require linux/android skills/understanding (even under windows). Even with those skills, it's probably going to take a day or so. Without them, far longer (or you could hire a CS student with the right skills for a day, I guess). And on the other hand, if your phone was synched, you're probably going to get a fair bit of it back when you connect the new phone. So is it worth the effort?

Our new app, VMLite VNC Server, should help you to deal with this special situation.
It works on non-rooted devices, basically what you can do is to install the apk from USB connection, and run our desktop program, VMLite Android App Controller to start and stop the app.
This way, you should be able to control and view your phone from a pc.

[App Idea] Plan B for data recovery on broken stock phones.

I feel this idea could be useful for a lot of us, not on our phones since we are likely rooted but on our family members and non tech friends stock phones. Which we usually end up fixing.
My idea if it is possible would be be for a "Plan B" type app for use after a broken screen, were the completely stock phone without ADB enabled needs data extracted.
My hope is that someone could make a app that is remotely installed from play.google.com that automatically turns on ADB debugging (if possible without root)
After that most data can be extracted with "adb backup" or adb pulls.
I can't count how many times this would of helped me in the past if it existed. Any dev up for the job? I am sure it would be appreciated by people.

Guess no one was interested in this idea.

I think many of us are interested but one (so far) can help.

would be a good idea.... who ever was in need for something like that will be likely to pay for that... :laugh:

I could see this being a massive security risk. Sure the app could be handy, but it would also make stealing info from a phone very very easy.
So on that note, I don't think it will ever make it through, though I am sure there are ways.
Just install something like SMSBackup+: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zegoggles.smssync
Set it to automatically back up to their gmail, every so often, and then when it comes time to have to do repairs, you can get all of their calling/sms stuff back, since Google automatically deals with the contact infos.

it wouldn't be a security risk since the only way to install it would be from play.google.com which no one can do without your password. also pour planning with other software is not the point of this since I have been asked to recover data from devices by people that I honestly had no clue they owned the device before they broke it.usually family I don't see on s normal occurrence.

I've always been taught to keep a back up of anything you consider important.
Either way...
There are ADB backup solutions out there, there are recovery apps in the Playstore that will scan for missing or deleted files.
If you have access to the Playstore you have access to all the already available recovery apps. Why the need for an app that will basically root and unlock the device from behind their 'lock screen'?
If you have no direct GUI access, you want an app that you run on your computer that forces the phone connected via USB, to unlock and let you access whatever you want before you restore the phone. This is a massive security problem, because anyone could download that app, and use it to break into phones.
Sound like the 'prior planning' apps, are the best way to go.

I think you are missing my point. I know that prior planning is the best but it it not always possible when dealing with people so tech illiterate that even thought they own the device they barely understand it is not a iPhone because that is what a smartphone is to them.
My intended use is for physicaly broken phones (mainly screen) where I can't control any apps with the screen or turn on ADB from settings.
You thought on the security risk is wrong since out of the ways I can think of to install it via play store on the phone is would not be used since that would mean the attacker could just go into settings and do it the normal way. sideloading is impossible since it would be redundent due to that already needing ADB on.
The intended way via the web is safe enough since the attacker would need your email, password.
Do you hate the "Plan B" app that gps tracks your lost or stolen phone that is already in the play store and gave me this idea. It shows in the store as having between half a million and a million installs. Do you think those people should of went without such a app and lost their phone since they should of just pre planned since it is better.

[Q] Starting ADB without having a screen?

So here is my problem everyone. I have a Tablet that I would like to get a replacement screen for, but as of right now don't have the money to do so.
But, I would still like to use it, using a remote control app, from my PC. To get it setup, see the specs, etc.
BUT where the screen is broken, and I've never logged into it, I cannot install any apps just straight off the web.
So my question/thoughts are, I need to start ADB without being able to see at all on the screen some how. Then from there I can figure out myself how to push .apk files over using that, install a remote control app, and the root it, and get it all nice and setup
BUT I don't know if it's possible to start ADB without being able to see, although the touch sensor is still working even though the screen is cracked.
Any help?

Portable ADB ALL [ANDROID] devices

Have you ever needed to use ADB at a work PC or a location you could not "install" applications?
Unzip the attached file and click the RunMe.bat
I have tested this pulling logs, pushing/pulling files, flashing recovery, roms, and anything else I could think of.
I tested it on the M8 stock rom 5.0.2 but this is a generic file so it should be fine on most if not all android devices.
The idea came when I was at work and looking for a solution for a problem I had. I could not install anything on my work PC, so this came in handy, the only problem is that it was outdated, or seemed outdated for my needs.
find the zip file here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347791558
This topic has been covered but is very outdated. I only found information from 2011 and 2013. The included information has since been updated by Google. I found it and included it, re-zipped it and now it is here for you to enjoy.
Thanks
to @Kickface, (where I first found this solution) wherever you went and any others who have created a truly portable (not minimal) solution to using ADB without installing anything.

I know this is totally off topic, I'll report myself for it later....
So, I installed the zip file onto my work PC, a DELL Inspiron laptop running Windows 7 professional (I really cannot get too much more info about it now) sorry. My nooby butt just went and downloaded the file not checking the MD5 :crying: Totally a dumb thing a NOOBY would do. It started to get late & I had to get ready to go to work. I know I had the command prompt screen (Black box) running and I then left the computer. 8 hr's later I come home from work and the computer is locked as normal, I to proceed entering Ctrl+Alt+Delete combination as usual & NOTHING (panic setting in)!! I was concerned since it was frozen from something I done, also I didn't want to loose all the work I gathered that night prior (is the very least of my worries now)... I took out the battery to reset the computer, again like a dummy, I started Windows normally ignoring the other "safe mode, etc" options. I click on windows Chrome, NOTHING! Not even an option to open the program/app. Okay, I'm really panicking now WTH did I do??? I knew I did something wrong, so I reset the computer by battery again, put it in "Safe Mode" which did absolutely nothing as I couldn't "open desktop gadgets in safe mode". Now, I restarted the computer from the start menu... Started up completely fine, I have access to everything EXCEPT Chrome, Internet Explorer, etc. anything that is browser related has the administrator shield on the icon. However, I still cannot even click on the icon to run as an administrator even if I had the password!?!?
Is there any possible hope to uninstall that file and just maybe it'll go back to normal??? I cannot re-install Chrome or Internet Explorer due to the darn administrator rights!!!
I've searched to the ends of the earth since last night trying to find a solution, this is my last ditch effort resort for any possible suggestions to point me in the right direction. Luckily my friend was kind enough to lend me his laptop and my phone is in proper working order:angel: If I tell my IT guy what happened, I'll be in huge trouble, going on the 2nd laptop destroyed, 1st time really wasn't my fault, just saying so u don't think I'm continuously reckless.
Any help as always is greatly appreciated! Hoping someone has had this happen maybe:fingers-crossed: and just a slight point in the right direction (link, website, specific thread on forum) would b awesome?? Again, apologies on the "off-topic" content, I don't know what else to do & I feel as though XDA is THE ABSOLUTE BEST forum site for any Android help, apps, devs research, roms, etc. Thx in Advance!!

I can tell you that it's not related to the files because I use them on my work PC all the time. I am working 10 hours days, 6 days a week. So the only time I can do anything out of the ordinary on my phone, it has to be at work.
That being said, have you tried system restore? I'm not sure if that requires admin rights, it might. On another note, tell the IT guy your internet explorer just stopped working, they love that. Because seriously, it's unrelated. The most he will do is uninstall and reinstall IE/Chrome. If that doesn't fix it, a system restore should. If that still does not, there is something off with the settings for internet access (I've seen that before). But if you are saying there is a shield/lock over an icon, that's new to me.
Also, I can install chrome at my work. It usually does not require admin rights, that and Firefox. There are also many portable browsers you can download from another PC and copy the zip file to the laptop, and run the app. Just search portable browser. At least this will help determine if the browsers installed got locked or if there is a network setting being blocked.
Let me know how it goes. This IS a bit off topic, but let's figure out what's wrong publicly so the mods can see there is nothing wrong with the zip I posted and then we can have our posts removed.

Thanks for getting back to me, I appreciate it.
I'm glad to hear that it's not the file bc I cannot uninstall that regardless. We do have crazy blocks on all the computers at my work. I'm pretty sure it has to do with the sensitive information we have (a drug tx center so everyone's personal info is in our database). We can't even update the time on our computers, I have no clue why. I asked him once, he said something about giving that permission would open up another way to bypass security (I can't remember exactly).
This is my laptop, I never even bother bringing into work because I work so much from home. For example my login at the office has updated twice when at home it's still my old login password. The computer is physically in bad shape (it's been used & abused for sure) I'd prefer not to the bring it in for him to see so I plan on waiting to Friday night (IF ALL ELSE FAILS) and txtg him saying I absolutely need to work & see if he will do troubleshoot remote access! I hope that doesn't sound too horrible :-/
As I was typing this I just received an email to restart all workstations due to updates/ changes to the server done this weekend... Hmmmm it could totally be bc of this!!!!! Fingers crossed. I may just have to bring it in let it connect to the local server reset it, and bam good to go If not due to this I can almost guarantee it's the internet settings that I don't have access to!! But the portable browser should work...
I will still try all of your suggestions once I get home this afternoon and report back to you ASAP!!
Luckily I have my friends laptop to borrow & Dell had some good deals on laptops last night so I ordered a really nice one since I really need a personal computer again. Which I will also get an expense check for (bonus)!! But, won't arrive until 3/16. Until then I do have access to extra pc's here I could always swap it out, but I don't want to be scrutinized or punished for being sneaky, it's really not my character...
Again, I appreciate your input. Also, totally agreed on the "off-topic resolution" first and then delete our posts...
Thanks Again!

Yeah, I cannot get through the security on it.
When I look at the properties or try to repair Chrome or IE, it has an incorrect path, totally crazy looking.
\\localhost\C$\os(c\Users\mludford.....
I'm currently downloading a zip for a standalone browser. Hopefully that'll work...
This thread in general is totally crazy too, it looks like I replied like 3 or 4 times, I DID NOT :/ I tried twice & it told me that I didn't have access to the post, with a grey button over my original post you replied to, saying "Spoiler"!?! Very strange....

Needless to say it's not the settings or anything with the computer as I took it into work for it to "register" & update to the network settings... Nothing! So, I'm trying the above to see if I can't get around it. Thanks Again
