[Q] Quick Question : Running an LG E400 Rom, on the LG L38C - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I picked up a trackphone LGL38C from my local Gamestop, cheap, works, and I use it as a wifi device with no Intention to actually get service for the thing. I know that the E400 has identicle hardware, only difference is that the E400 is GSM while my L38C is CDMA, can I saftely flash the CM9 port for the E400 to the L38C and still have wifi? I feel like the answer will be yes, but I felt it would be best to check with others and get a general consensus, If I do kill it I can just pick up another for $20

Go for it. The differences are so minor between the two that it should work practically flawlessly.

Well, as of now I'm sitting at the LG Logo.. been here awhile now. This might not actually work.

Video to Camera mode

I recently received an X10. I was wondering if anyone else has a problem with switching from video to camera mode and vice versa? For me, it's unresponsive and takes forever to switch back and forth between them. Do you just click on the icons? Maybe I'm doing it wrong (though I can't imagine how). If I can't fix minor issues like this, I'm going to pay $105 for a Captivate as a replacement.

That's strange. Do you simply press the video camera and then it changes? When I press it, it's delayed so much that I don't even know if it's the phone or not. Everything on the phone is stock.

Ok, thanks. I guess I'll change my phone to either a Captivate or another Xperia. I really don't feel like waiting for 2.1 or the "kits." I know it won't fix a lot of things like multi-touch and 16m colors.

As there are about 6 different versions so that doesn't help, and might have been resolved if you updated from an older version.

It was one of the first things I asked as you'd mentioned replacing it, and as I've already said, that or any other issues you were having might have been resolved with a FW update. Anyway, you've swapped now.

I'm only Rooted, but, from what I'v read most are using Joker's stuff. CM7 is the most stable and most use for everyday use. CM9 is not as stable, but it helps Joker idenitfy and fix problems.

The E4GT is a piece of garbage. Im glad I sold mine. I wish there was more development here but Motorola really shackled this device. Id like to install one of Joker's ROMs but there arent enough current walkthroughs to unlock and relock and I dont want to risk it.

Wifi tether works only ad-hoc by default for now. I've seen a post here that has a work around to use infrastructure mode.

Im not in any way, shape or form bagging on any of the great devs for this device but let me put it in perspective for you. I came back into the smartphone hacking game via the Evo. There are a ZILLION roms for that device. Then I went to the E4GT and it has a much, much smaller development community. Maybe 10 guys. Come here and there are only a couple. Not to say their stuff isnt fantastic but Im just used to more choices.
The locked bootloader is what killed this phone. It could have been the darling for Sprint like the Evo was but Motorola screwed the pooch.
personally i will never own a scamsung device again not after all the BS i went through with the moment with LOS and other problems, they tried to sell me the epic touch when my upgrade was due and i was like HELL NO, give me the photon!

Like the poster said above Wifi Tether does work in infrastructure mode now with various apps such as WT for root and OpenGarden. Just have to choose specific settings in the app and it works fine.

He wasn't referring to rom options when he mentioned qbKing, he was referring to guides. qbKing has amazing youtube videos that show how to root/unlock/relock/unbrick the photon.

Good news..knock code for ATT..

I check everyday and found this link so i guess its now rolling out...knock code,immersive apps,performanc in browser etc
http://www.mobileburn.com/22752/news/lg-g2-android-44-kitkat-update-rolling-out-now-to-att...
UPDATE!!! The thread provided was edited by author because knock code was not in the update. It is a month old displaying the kk update we had on 2.23.13. All we can do is hope the newest update is released for our carrier(ATT)soon.
Has anyone gotten it yet? Im on cm11 so i cant know as of right now.

Well this was expected sooner or later since F320L got update with Knock Code and Immersive mode. As it was when the kitkat update was rolling out, D800 first got it, then D801, and then D802 International version. Hope D802 get's it soon, because I don't want put any custom ROM to get Immersive mode

nope. went back to completely stock. after 3 or 4 factory resets and live chat with ATT i tried a last factory reset and checked it with data on not wifi. it showed the update so i connected to wifi, and i got it.
it seemed to only work without doing the gmail account and stuff. weird??
but on a different note, it hasnt been released yet. so ill be remaining stock for the update whuch should be happening very soon i hope....
LG France has revealed that there is update to be expected for D802 which fixes hissing sound in earplugs, however no information about knock code though.
Since my phone is damaged and touchscreen isn't functioning, Knock-Code isn't my interest anymore but wish you guys enjoy it.

I think that he is talking about the LG implementation included in the Korean version which lets you choose to enable immersive mode in any app.

its stating that ATT is promising us more with performance and battery life. knock code is part of the update.please read the link in the op
If you believe what ATT promising things, especially "better battery", you will be very disappointed.

Good news but for Vodafone Spain and they already realease an update 20b and Knock Code works like a charm. No Bluetooth bug and no Hising noise! =)
Edit: if you root it knock code still works, but when you install the recovery with autorec knock code doesn't work properly. And also we lose the feature knock on.
Also when I flashed it via pc I couldn't do a hard.reset with the.combo buttons. So I did it.via settings.
Cheers

ril = radio interface layer. Its specific to each device/carrier. Without the proper ril (kernel level), no data. CM and most aosp use their own cooked up versions, which is why data is never the same on aosp builds. The source for rils is rarely released. Stock based roms will already have the proper ril files, unless its a port, but then they just patch it with the correct one. Stock rils won't work with aosp (incase you were about to ask)...

I've tried it myself and it works. RIL is Radio Interface Layer and is the communication link between ROM and radio. Like drivers for peripherals. Matching ril's can mean better signal as well as battery life. Bad ril's or ones that don't get set or initiated can prevent data.
I was told clearing cache gives the ril's time to start. They were losing data after every reboot. Liquid Smooth guys are hard at work on it. [emoji6]

Hotspot Hack

Hi. I'm considering to purchase the V30. I usually root all my phones so its a bit disappointing I won't be able to do so on this phone (at least for now). However, I'm wondering is there's a way to have hotspot hack without root?? Thanks and sorry if it's already been discussed...

He's asking for a way to enable hotspot on the phone without the carrier giving permission/charging more money for using your mobile data as you please.
All custom ROMs have that feature enabled.
I'm going to go with no on this one. If it was found to work the carrier would shut it down in a heartbeat.

Hello,
In short.. Hotspot works with no root.
Please read through the post below starting at post # 16..
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-g6/help/activated-sprint-ls993-mind-testing-t3598048/page2
This method worked for my LG-G5,G6 and V30+.. Keep in mind read your carries trems and conditions.. doing this hotspot hack can in some cases get you booted out of your contract .
Also i ,we, them are not responsible for any side effect , problems this method might,might not cause you or your device,
I haven't had the need in a couple years but I use to use pdanet to hide my teher usage on tmobile. Doesn't work for with tether but worked like a charm in USB mode (never tried bluetooth)
Edit: I think its free to try and the key was a couple of bucks years ago
Edit 2: and yes it works (or did last I needed it) without root

On Moto Quark with custom ROMs, I'm pretty sure T-Mobile customers have hot spot. I haven't heard any complaints.
I know I have it on AT&T. I also KNOW the custom ROM hotspot works on Verizon unlimited because many, many people have commented on it.
Quark (Droid Turbo XT1254, U.S. Moto Maxx XT1250, Moto Turbo XT1225, Moto Maxx XT1225) was the "reasonable" sized Moto Nexus 6 (Shamu). Not official NEXUS but same manufacturer, 90% same specs, bigger battery.
This is from June 2017. He's using T-mobile Hot Spot on two different ROMs and saying one is FASTER than the other. But they both work.

Downloading same app on tablet first with using phone A hotspot took 6 minutes to download. Switched to phone B hotspot and it took 30 seconds to download. Switched back to phone A hotspot and again, 6 minutes download. Went back to phone B and again 30 seconds. Went to download mumble .exe file from website and same results. There is clearly something with RR. I am going to try clean install with latest update.
Did clean install on the phone. Latest rev, latest kernel, latest gapps. Still ridiculously slow hotspot speed when using this phone.
Just as added info. Mind you both phones are operating exactly the same only difference is ROM. I am using droid turbo on T-Mobile network. But I set up APN and everything so it works and other phone is setup exactly same except CF made a T-Mobile variant whatever that is. Could whatever he did be making the hotspot work better using the T-Mobile line than RR? Time to go and install everything again

It's awesome if people are able to use unlimited hotspot again.

He's asking for a way to enable hotspot on the phone without the carrier giving permission/charging more money for using your mobile data as you please.
All custom ROMs have that feature enabled.

Most carriers include hotspot in the US. They just limit it because people abuse it if they don't.
PDA.net does work fine, but you can't use the wifi option - Nougat killed it and they said they wouldn't be working to update it. You're stuck using USB tethering which is fine if you only want to use it for a laptop or something. But otherwise, you're kind of stuck, waiting for a ROM to come out.
