My bad, thought I read Verizon had Pie already.

How does it perform? Worthwhile?

Seen a number of variations of the phone, wonder which is best and why. From a radios aspect looks like Verizon -01 is best having the most CDMA and GSM radios. Verizon has also released the Android 9 which is nice. Next is the Sprint -02 phone, it also has both sets of radios, but not as many...

Does anyone have instructions or information on the replacement of the factory screen protector? I know Motorola can replace the screen protector and some folks have had it done for free. Does going this route requires any proof of purchase or other requirements. I've seen a youtube video...

Do folks still have love for this phone? Any key issues people should be aware of? I heard of a bug causing the battery to drain introduced in an update. Also wanted to know if screen always on is an issue with burn in. Please share any user experience issues you'd consider as a deal breaker.

Could you explain or demonstrate how you managed to swap out the memory chip? That itself is an interesting accomplishment. Mike

Option: Turn off throttling Only thing I've found for stock is the option to turn off throttling all together. I gave this a try and it does look to work for the most part. I'm able to consistently get Antutu speeds in the 58K range, but the temps are a bit scary. Even with the thermal tape...

Have pogo, want to know if it's possible to throttle stock. Pogo doesn't like root, and the root with magisk isn't something I really want to do. Think pogo may eventually figure a way to detect it too.

Thanks for the feedback No stacking pads :), that's good to know for the future.

Not sure why you don't like my suggestion, it's pretty much the same as using a 1mm thick pad. Except you have .5 on the SoC and .5 on the chassis. Yes, I did flatten it some to avoid loss of contact.

Yup, it's like a double sided foam tape. I used .5mm and doubled it up. I attached one to the chassis and one to the chip itself. Mike

Let us know how it works. BTW, I agree that it's better to use a newer pad. the pads loose their moisture over time and effectiveness. At least I've had that experience with thermal paste.

This is what I used https://www.amazon.com/ARCTIC-Thermal-Pad-0-5-Conductivity/dp/B00UYTT3I2/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1474587691&sr=8-6&keywords=arctic+thermal+pad Cut to fit, remove clear plastic on both sides to apply.

Haven't noticed this issue, I don't have before wi-fi signal readings to be sure, but wifi seems fine. I used a 0.5 mm thermal pad vs 1 mm, however I did double up on the SoC itself. Don't know how you decided to apply the tape. My other thought is it could be related to reassembling the...

Variations in score due to heat I ran Antutu several times in a row to wear down a new extended battery on the LG3 stock 30e. Scores started at 64k+ and after about 5 straight runs, went down into the 38k range! Each time I ran the benchmark, the scores would lower about 10k. The phone hit...

Thanks to all. I ended up using the Arctic thermal pad 6.0 W/mK. I applied a .5mm pad across the width of the chassis and just covered the chip with a square. The results are pretty good, temperatures are matching my Sammy Galaxy S5 which was running anywhere from 10 to 20 degC cooler than...

Well guys, this isn't just benchmarking. If you use the phone for GPS services or Pokemon Go, it's not hard to hit the 80's. Especially when ambient temp is in the 90's. I live in TX, don't have much of a choice regarding ambient temp here for Pogo.

Paste suggestions? I've seen a few different variations of this fix: 1: Paste - Gap too big for paste, can dry out over time and be messy. 2: Shim - GPS signal block issues? 3: Thermal pad. - Looks like the most promising. That being said, I'm going with the thermal pad approach, but...

I ran unroot and the phone reports as not being rooted, however Pokemon go is still complaining. TWRP is still installed. If I uninstall TWRP will that do the trick? If not, how do I go back to stock? I saw instructions on going back to stock, says to just install _complete. From Autoprime's...

Yes, I do have 851. You can't follow the instructions exactly, you need to sub in the D851 files where applicable.

Does this with MM? 30D Tried Nomone. Issues with keyboard compatibility.

What app displays the phone status, frequency/temp in the upper left hand corner?

Thanks for the input on what's lost. I've read about the camera issue. Good to know that's the biggest difference. Actually if you're running Marshmallow there is a game optimizer mode that will drop the screen resolution to 1080p when gaming on stock. This is where most of the heat issues...

I tried this and the phone wasn't too happy. Having trouble determining a good DPI setting. I tried calculating mathematically, meaning what the DPI should be to cover the same screen size at the set resolution, but that didn't work too well. Would be nice to hear from someone who has the...

Which version of the MOD did you go with? Shim, pad, only paste, combo? What was the temperature delta? Regards, Mike ---------- Post added at 02:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:23 PM ---------- Shouldn't the .5mm shim work if you have .7mm of space? Also when thermal compound...

Things I've found... Running 6.0 Stock 30D root. Most of the recommendations I'm seeing are of the common sense variety. 1: Turn down screen brightness. 2: Minimize running apps. 3: Turn off GPS/WIFI ect. 4: Stop gaming 5: Stay out of the sun I can do 1 and 2, but the others are hard to...

Pretty good. Phone is pretty good. My main criticisms are the phones heat issue and rather dull screen. I haven't run custom ,don't know how much that helps. Can anyone comment on what you would lose going custom ROM? Currently running stock Marshmallow 30D.

Is there a way to root without kingroot?

How did you guys root?

take it back, must be something wrong with the phone.

Any luck using the governors to manage heat issues with LG G3?

I was able to downgrade using LGUP and go to 30D. Tried Purple Drake, No luck, same error. I see there's an alternative method using Kingroot, but have read there is some concern using this tool. Any other options? Mike

Has anyone been able to find published tmax temps for the Snapdragon 801? Doesn't look like Qualcomm publishes these numbers. I'm hitting peak temps in the 80's running Antutu.

In the same boat. 30e TMO 30e, same message.

I'm looking to get the LG G3 heat under control. Under nominal load I'm getting in the 50'sC with a ambient temp of 76F If I run Pokémon Go, temps get up into the 70'sC. I'd like to do something along the lines of undervolting or underclocking the phone. Problem is I'm running 30e which...

Thanks for the input, I'd really be interested to see how the battery holds up after the 6 mons. mark. Also, I'm assuming you're a heavy user. Another thing I recently read was the way some of these batteries are put together. Some are simply two regular capacity batteries put together...

I've been looking at the extended batteries from powerbear and the like. None of them list which battery cells they use in their batteries. I've also seen a lot of complaints of the batteries dying at the 3 to 6 month mark. Does anyone know which batteries use high quality battery cells...

That's actually pretty good battery IMO. Is that on one battery? I'm assuming regular performance or even undervolt would be more that enough for pokemongo?

Would this phone work well with Pokémon go? Wanted to hear from players. Want to know if battery drain, GPS, heat, or GPU are issues. I've read some conflicting accounts. Wanted to know if running MM stock would be fine. If any particular mods are needed.

Considering a Note 4. Want to know what the common issues are with this phone and if these issues can be fixed. For example: + Is battery life an issue with Marshmallow? + Does bloatware cause issues when running stock? + Any hardware issues, buggy hardware? - Are there key issues with...

Recommendations on version of CM on NookHD+ I have 10.2 up and running. Wondering which is the best version of CM to run on Nook HD+. If CM11 is better, can I update by just installing the upgrade file over 10.2? Any special instructions needed?

Thanks for pointing me to the right files. I didn't see those attachments the first time around. Nook Color is up and running CM11!

Which Image files? Thanks for responding. When you say the latest image files, do you mean the image that's initially used to burn the boot to the SD Card or do you mean the nightly CM files? I coudn't find anything newer for the burn to boot referenced. I'm assuming this means the Snapshot...

SD Card boot loop. Looking for help from the experts. I've installed the CM 11 M11 snapshot on a 32 GB class 4 Sandisk SDCard:confused:. I burned the generic image, generic-sdcard-v1.3.img, that starts you off with 179MB partition. I use minitool partition to make it a larger to copy the...

Issue causing no mount found... In my case the issue was caused by my Sandisk 64GB ultra micro sd card. Everything seemed to work fine, I was able to use it to boot and copy files ect... In the end, for whatever reason I was unable to run the zip install on this card. I replaced it with a...

How does CWM recovery work? If I were to unzip the image and copy it manually via adb push, is this the same as unzipping the recovery file on the sdcard? Can't get it to execute. complains about root. I tried to su and found su is not on my emc.

Can't Mount E:/... Looking for help with bricked Nook HD+ Can't mount e:/sdcard therefore can't install the zip file. I'm able to get to clockworkmod, and was able to push the Ovation zip file to the internal sd card, but can't install and can't sideload and even tried a command to kickoff...

Thanks for helping, I appreciate your effort. I'm using v6.0.2.8, this is what you recommended installing earlier. As far as wipe vs format. There are two options one in mounts and storage menu there is a format cache option. In the main menu area there's a wipe cache partition option.

I actually tried formatting the cache earlier. I hadn't tried wipe. Still no luck with the can't mount.

I was able to get the CWM boot working. Now it won't let me flash the ROM due to the e: Can't mount /cache or /sdcard error. Any thoughts?
