Hey peeps, I am looking for the stock droid razr car home app. I just got the s3 and my buddy has razr and i like his car home better than my car home ultra. any help would be great.
Would a Moto app even be compatible with a Samsung phone? I love Car Home Ultra!

Im sure it would. i have zumo cast on the s3. works flawless.
I hope someone post it
Let me edit.... I HOPE it will work.
Car home is an awesome app, i have used it for a year now. I just like the razr car app because you can, instead of for instance having all your music app taking up a whole 6 spots or so you can just have 1 music folder then when you click on that it will open up your options for the music app you want to choice.
Hello my friends. The time has come for me to let the optimus G PRO 2 and try a new phone. I said that i won't buy LG anymore... because they gave a s**t kitkat update to my G .. and than after i bought the G Pro 2 they forgot about our device , and now it's "dead" in terms of development.
So i bought a Galaxy S5.
What i want to say.. for people who know.. we have a group on facebook:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/lggpro2/
I will continue to support this group(moderate+add new users).
However it's time to pass the legacy to another optimus G PRO 2 user... so feel free to apply for admin function in the group.
The post model:
about how long you plan to keep the optimus G PRO 2:
member of the group: yes/no
I will choose the winner based on the reputation at my discretion.
Sad to see you go. You did a fantastic job with the Facebook page.
Welcome back to the new Pro 3 next year, anytime, buddy!
I may quit Pro 2 for a while to try Note 4 and come back to LG again for its Pro 3 next year, and hopefully with a Stylus!
I wait BB Passport to say Bye Bye G PRO 2, very sad...
Yep..it's sad. About Lg .. maybe if g pro 3 / g4 will be very popular.. i will re-join lg
I mean all i want from lg is a phone with latest android , nice ui and custom cm rom. For now.. i'm happy with my gs5.
- bad aspects to gs 5:
- No knock code
- i really hate the "sent sms notification" feature.. on lg is way better,
- no alarm unlock by puzzle
- i get 1.5 gb ram eaten from 1.75 (rest is for android) but i can't complain..(i mean the phone is really fast)
- good aspects to gs5:
- the screen is awesome (you can set it in4 ways.. and can get rid of some amoled ****, you get the chance to see the colors more natural)
- camera is great , even selfie camera is great
- i can use 128 gb sdcard
- battery is good
- check at the picture from atachments, exynos octa is really fast.
So.. let's hope we will meet again at g4/g pro 3. (if not .. than iphone 6+)
can you explain the "dead" part on your 1st post?
Yes i can. Look at software. I don't see a custom kernel for g pro 2. No cool apps ported. No impressive roms. Ugly user interface(compared to lg g3) . At least if g pro 2 would have g3 Ui. No updates. (i gave my g pro 2 to my little brother - he's a game addict ..so the g pro 2 is good for him) ..but i still had problems like random reboots when i connected the device to usb cable. If android 4.5 comes.. and than shortly 4.6 and than 4.7 .. lg might skip again like it did with 4.1 -4.4 while samsung and the competition updated their devices to 4.2 , 4.3 and than 4.4 . Now..this is something. Is you ask me..it's better to get 4.2 and 4.3 instead of waiting from 4.1 to 4.4 and when you get 4.4 you don't have half of 4.4 features. (this is what happened with my lg optimus g, before i bought g pro 2). After two weeks i sold the g with 200 $ . After i first booted up my s5.. i got like ~900 mb of updates for performance/ apps/etc. I liked that.
Now...about the facebook group...offer still stands. Let's see some requests.

Is this not a G3 based ROM?
No.
I don't get it, who cares you change a phone. maybe I don't know your important role in lg g pro 2 community's life but I think you won't miss too much. You are trolling the community only w/ this thread...

Nope. Not really. At least this wasn't my intention. And if i'm trolling..this ain't a true community. True community was when i had an optimus black / optimus g. There we used to say good bye from the rest when we moved on.
I'm looking to see if the new Android Auto technology is compatible with the Galaxy Note 4 and if anyone here has had any success stories to share. I've read a thread in the past where users were having problems with the MirrorLink technology the Note 4 has built in. I don't want to spend $1k on a head unit that won't be compatible with my phone. My Note 4 is the Retail Verizon Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910V).
When responding, PLEASE state what carrier you're on. This information is essential, as both Verizon and AT&T have locked bootloaders and are currently not permanently rootable, thus some connection settings may not be currently attainable.
I have Sprint Note 4 rooted and running the awesome Hybrid X Series odexed version
I have mirroring working on a newly installed Panasonic AVH-4100NEX head unit. I got the one without Nav because the navigation systems date the hardware and apps for nav have come a long way and pretty much replace built in nav.
Big help is to be found in the http://avic411.com/ forums. Mine can run video while under way but i will be running nav and YaV1 (yet another Valentine 1 app) rather than fooling with streaming video or DVDs.
Cheers

Thank you for your reply. When you first connected mirroring, were there any signs that the process was asking for root access? I would like to know if root IS required or not.
I only had my truck for an hour taking it from the stereo shop to the body shop. I tested with the AR Unchained Reloaded app, which requires root. When I get the truck back I can test it with my wife's non-root S4 if it has mirror capability. But I think it does not have mirroring. I would search on the avic411 forum. I'll take a look there too.
I have this problem
I had the Chevy Mylink in my 2016 Chevy Colorado Z71 updated through my dealership for the Andriod Auto software update and I'm working with a Samsung Note 4 (AT&T) with 5.1.1 and cannot get sound when playing music. I read the horror stories online about the troubleshooting and was hoping someone had a fix, any help or ideas? thanks
Good day
I’m hoping someone can steer me in the right direction for the right phone.
Up until 4 months ago I was happy camper with my Samsung Galaxy S3 rooted with Cyanogen-mod.
Then it died and not keeping up on the latest changes I went out and grabbed a SAMSUNG GALAXY S5 SM-G900A AT&T SW-VER G900AUCU3B0C4 - LP 5.0. Little did I know that they had locked it up tighter than a drum? Wow, with the software bloat and not being able to use CM on this thing is driving me nuts.
I’m with Cricket now and I guess that puts in with GSM. Though an unlocked NW phone that could handle both GSM and CDMA would be nice but not a must.
I’m looking for –
- 2 GB RAM
- 4.8 – 5.5 Display
- One you can root
- Customize with CM
- 16-32 Internal ROM
- MicroSD card support
- Cost under $250
Note - I really don’t use a Camera and I don’t play games on these
Unless someone can suggest something else I was look at these two straight from Motorola.
What do you all think –
MOTO G3 GSM (XT1540) AndroidTM Lollipop 5.1.1
MOTO G4 GSM/CDMA (XT1625) Android™ 6.0.1, Marshmallow
Thank you so much for your time and help.

**DEVICE SUGGESTION THREAD** -- Not sure what device to buy? Ask here! by KidCarter93
Sent from my XT1254 using XDA Labs
All the news this week is referring to a Snapdragon 888 and 8Gb ram P12 Pro. Do we think the 870 2021 Xiaoxin will ever receive an International ROM?
I've got one in the mail and thinking I may have made a big mistake. Its main use will be netflix and Disney+ and I wanting to take advantage of Dolby Vision.
Can't say for sure about Disney+, but I have no issue playing Netflix Videos on Full HD downloaded from Play Store.
In case you're wondering, I installed Play Store with an APK downloaded from APK Mirror and it seems to work out of the box.
The only thing i didn't like about the tablet is it disables notification for each app by default and set battery optimization option on by default on newly installed app which could affect some things like notifications. Other than that, this tablet is a satisfying multimedia powerhouse
Edit: Also i set Dolby option to "Movie" and it sounds wonderful.
Well this is promising. Is yours the 2021 version? Did you update any software and just use out of the box?
Does it have widevine 1? I've seen reports of it dropping back to 3?
I guess you have to have the ultra subscription (which you may not have) but did you notice if Netflix offers Dolby Vision?
I'll be steaming most my content via plex so as long as that works well I guess it won't be a total loss if Disney+ and Prime aren't in FHD HDR.
I have Plex, Tubi, Locast, Peacock and Kodi on mine and no issues with any of them. This is the best tablet I have ever owned. Even Starmaker (Karaoke app) works well with Bluetooth headset.
Great news. Mine arrives next week I'll report back.
Looking forward on catching up on some of the latest series from the comfort of my bed!!
Also going to give moonlight a go to try and game stream my pc from downstairs.
I've got mesh WiFi-6 so hopefully it'll work well.
Hi!!!
i have an issue. i got on a spending spree and ordered the tablet. first of all it is not as bright as i expected and i paid lot for it (due to VAT) i have GOOGLE PLAY
but here is my problem?
how to check for HDR?
NETFLIX doesn't support HDR for this tablet (only for p11 pro...)
should i get prime video?
do you have HDR?
If you updated via the update when you first boot you've lost widevine 1. Download DRM off the play store and it'll tell you your current level (it's 1 out of the box).
Out the box the tablet does FHD on Netflix with no HDR as you say. Prime video is SD and a waste of time.
Just got to hope for an international ROM or else you've got a great tablet which is limited by its software.
I'm doing everything via plex and its working well.

I'm sort of in the same boat. If you're just using it for media the P11 Pro has the better software.
However if we get a proper international release and firmware it'll be worth it still.
The P12 Pro talk at the moment referees to a Snapdragon 888 processor so I'm not holding my breath.
I'm lucky really despite having amazon prime, disney+ and Netflix subs I'm having to torrent the Dolby Vision versions of the stuff I want to watch to my plex. It's a ball ache having to do it, but at least I've not wasted my money.

i expected at least better brightness.
if i had gotten the p11 pro i would have saved 200 euros........... + vat
I must have got lucky as I didn't have to pay any import charges so it cost me £350 delivered which is a very good price for the hardware.
Shame there's not a bigger scene on here supporting custom roms etc.

i paid 400 euros + 150 for import charges... the p11 pro would have been 420 total...

Where did you get it from? Mine was from Giztop but I paid for express shipping.
I also bought mine from Giztop, £435 delivered, including the keyboard case.. pretty good deal if you ask me.
Havent updated base firmware to avoid losing the widevine L1 as everyone is referencing.. but am also hoping we eventually get a global rom for it.
I've done more digging on this. I've updated and still have widevine level 1.
Pretty happy with it overall. One stuck pixel though
If an international rom doesn't come out I'm possibly going to pick up an S7+ second hand when their new one launches.
so you could order this with international rom?
https://www.reddit.com/r/androidtablets/comments/kv1ewb
Yeah that's the 2020 version. We're talking about the 2021 version which does not have an international version.
