Friend soft bricked a s4..i337 at&t.. Rooted and tried to install cwm using twrp manager since it's listed as a supported device and it fails to boot now. Keeps rebooting into download mode. Anyone have any links to the files I'll need to flash it with Odin?

I haven't seen them in a while but that LG G Pad that I got at Pricesmart is super smooth and has a beautiful screen. Would definitely recommend it even if it's a bit more than the $1200 they were selling them for.

Z3 tablet compact or....iPad. Srs.
But if she is not picky just pick a Samsung tab and done.

[dougla_boy]

samsung 8inch tab dan......very nice....

[M_2NR]

Dat z3 tablet compact or 10.1 rellll Bess. I eh know how water proof it is though but in terms of aesthetics, smoothness of UI and general use, it functioned really well. Battery life surprisingly good too and the stereo speakers tops. The compact actually feels like an oversized phone and its quite thin.

I always rather a 10.1 screen though for movies/media etc. And though the iPad is what I will recommend to the average person, that 4:3 ratio and mono speaker for movies/shows suck

[Chimera]

I still rocking a tab 3 7inch.

I eh see it in about 6 months tho

BOW!
Daiz upgrade deh fadda. All day battery life is d scene from now on.

[Mr.Bollywood]

wow everyone on this g2 scene! loving it! i think an award is in order for LG on their G2, i thinking my next upgrade will be the G4 that was announced today.

hahah okay fellas since everyone speaking on the G2 , i actually require some unconventional assistance with one,

im currently fixing a Hard Bricked LG G2, that was reading as QHSUSB_bulk, and blackscreen of death due to a wrong flash of firmware.


thankfully i was able to rectify the problem and bring the phone back to life.

unfortunately the boot.img as well as the rest of .img files that allow the phone to be identified that was flashed and caused the phone to be bricked was from a alternate model to the one that im working on, which is the D800.


now the phone is working perfectly however im getting an error message "invalid battery" every 20 minutes due to the mismatch in model numbers, this message then causes the phone to shut off.


at this point i have downloaded the files for the d800 and plan to redo the entire identification of the phone, however i cant seem to get the phone into fastboot mode again :/

apparently the only way to get a G2 into fastboot mode is to corrupt one of the boot.img partition files and flash new files.


my problem is i cant seem to brick the phone :/ ive tried flashing files from other model G2s but none actually hard brick the phone or corrupt the boot.img, so i tried deleting it altogether, that didn't work either because when originally fixing the phone i separated a secondary partition dedicated for these files that in the case of a corrupt file, it would have an original backup in that small partition.

then i realized i couldn't delete the partition i made.



sooooo the question is, does anyone have any ideas on how i can purposely hard brick this G2? or how to get it into an immediate fastboot mode?

if anyone can help that would be greatly appreciated, cuz I've run out of ideas on how to brick the phone lol

Can phones use gps without data? For maps at least.
Saw a coworker using gps on his WiFi tab today to navigate but we didn't get around to chat about it.
