    Corrupt screen, can't access recovery

    The screen on my Asus Zenpad Z380 is corrupt (see pic) and I can’t get it into recovery or even reboot it. I fear it’s game over, but just wonder if there is a way to rescue, it perhaps with a firmware flash, though it would need to be done completely remotely if I can’t get into recovery. Any...

    Permission to operate... must perform the certain steps to grant SD card access rights.

    I'm getting this as well. There is no "Show SD Card" in the menu, just "Permission to Use SD Card" which just brings up the tutorial every time. Frustrating! I've tried over and over again, with the same result every time. I can see and open files on the SD card, but can't move, copy or delete...

    Questions before buying LG V30

    Thanks for your feedback. I've bitten the bullet & bought one on fleabay, so I'll find out for myself when it arrives, but I think I'll love it!

    Questions before buying LG V30

    Do your phones have the blue shift like in this video? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kizJnKRH2BE My concern is that watching videos on train journeys (which I do a lot!), it will be at an angle on the table (I won't be holding it in my hand), so I might not be looking directly at it. I also...

    Questions before buying LG V30

    Can anyone tell me the actual part number for the B&O headphones this comes with They are on at all sorts of prices on eBay. Just trying to work out how much value they add as not all deals include them.

    Questions before buying LG V30

    Thanks both Pretty much decided I'm going to get one! One more, question, so there were screen issues with the pre-production models. Were these rectified before they went on sale, or would early retail versions still have problems. A seller on ebay has given me the IMIE no, which gives...

    Questions before buying LG V30

    Here's the review I mention in my first post, I think it wasn't letting me post it as I wasn't logged in: LG V30 at six months: The flagship stumbles with its display but shines elsewhere

    Questions before buying LG V30

    Thanks for your reply. I don't understand why manufacturers are so obsessed with putting glass backs on their phones. Most people are going to put a case over it! Are there any cases that rise over the edges at the side as well as the top and bottom? In theory this isn't strictly necessary...

    Thanks for your reply. I am a member (have been for years), but just noticed I wasn't signed in. Not sure why the message got posted if I wasn't logged in, never had that on a forum before! I am now logged in and ready to "engage with others", as I was when I first sent this!

    SGS 4 vs contemporary mid range

    You want to sell me one for 400 (£?, $?). I can get a reconditioned & guaranteed one for £130 on ebay. Anyone have anything to contribute on the original topic of this thread?

    SGS 4 vs contemporary mid range

    I'm looking for cheapish 4G upgrade from my humble SGS 3. It doesn't need to be the fastest phone on the planet or have the biggest screen or pixel density, but an overall upgrade in specs and a decent camera would be advantageous. I was thinking about something like the Galaxy A5 or the new...

    That will no longer be necessary!

    Rollable, foldable screens next year?

    The haptic feedback sounds fun, sounds like the iPhone 6 will have it. Will probably get another slab of glass, plastic & metal to keep me up to date for the next couple of years, and then get a phone with teleportation, invisibility cloaking and time travel features.

    Rollable, foldable screens next year?

    Realistically, are we going to see these next year, or are we still some way off yet? Are there any other really groundbreaking features that are expected in next years phones, or are we just looking at even bigger, faster slabs of plastic, metal & glass?
