    Boy does this phone overheat quickly in the car!

    Here in beautiful Canada, we get the black leather back and a grey plastic one. The black leather heats up in seconds in the car. Even with the A/C freezing me, the leather adsorbs the sunlight like a magnet. I've circumvented the auto diming and heat throttling so I say if you're gunna blow...

    Did you get rid of your old phone before getting the G4?

    Got a bunch of previous phones. I keep them as back up phones. Each time I retire an IPS Android tablet, I put it on the wall (plugged in) in a new room at a time so that I can see all my security cameras outside. I never buy AMOLED due to burn-in and ghosting, regardless of the price. My cams...

    If you could change ONE thing about the G4, what would it be?

    Hehe, well thats why I suggest that the phone makers produce a basic phone and then a high octane phone for those on the bleeding edge. If specs arent important and screen qaulity is not required, this begs the question... why not get a basic phone like an iphone? They're not even running on...

    Selfie camera brightness?

    I don't know about picture rules but are you sure your LUX is in power? Have you rebooted? The settings are all done? They are a little tricky, thats why I ask. Try to heat up your demo phone with video capture while you reboot your phone

    Selfie camera brightness?

    Install LUX Lite and set it to manual then jack it up to 100% You will see your brightness slider go up and down during throttle but your bypass will trick the screen into remaining at 100% Let me know if you need settings help on LUX.

    If you could change ONE thing about the G4, what would it be?

    I'll stick up for the 2K screen, infact I'm waiting on a 4K 6 inch. This won't apply to everyone but I deal with massive photos (RAW) shot so I can get the most detailed look as possible of them before I give the ok. What I'm able to see on a 2K versus a simple FHD is the difference between a...

    G4 Owners with Leather Back beware!

    Leather will release the smell over time. Trying to get it out or mask it may backfire. Now I am NOT suggesting this but rather just telling you what I did to my back cover day one: bought a qaulity white candle and a soft terry cloth. I rubbed some candle wax onto the cloth and slowly and...

    LG G4 Battery Life Thread

    Re: LG G4 battery life isn't as great as those reviewers said Well I love your relentless search for alternatives lol. On Friday, we actually had a mini meeting on what to do. One of my collection agents suggested that I run 2 phones and look into having the second sim take the call that the...

    Selfie camera brightness?

    They can both be reading 100% brightness while just one of the two has suffered LG's Thermal Mitigation Throttling. To find out, keep both at 100% and send both phones the the exact same webpage with lots of white (like Google). If the demo is brighter, you'll have the answer. If one is...

    LG G4 Battery Life Thread

    Re: LG G4 battery life isn't as great as those reviewers said Ha no worries, I was on to ya ;) While I struggle to make sense of your lastest reply lol, I will say this, when my phone is shut off for the 3 minutes it takes to swap, everyone else's phones light up from people asking why I'm...

    Selfie camera brightness?

    What is the brightness percentage on the demo versus yours and has yours already throttled due to being too hot?

    If you could change ONE thing about the G4, what would it be?

    It all comes down to what the average Joe (or Josephine) gets hooked on in a 20 second ad or a sales pitch at the kiosk. If you stand around long enough you'll notice that the sales pitch is tailored to what the potential client is projecting. Fashionista gets the "slim" "thin" pitch while the...

    Re: LG G4 battery life isn't as great as those reviewers said Its beyond me how millions of people can carry on and scrutinize every aspect of the phones exterior shape size and material used... then put an ugly case on it.
