[Q] Question on LG Health - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I set this up yesterday before I left for work and had maybe 10-20 steps from just wondering around getting ready for work. When I got to work I noticed that 10-20 jumped up to around 1,300 steps. Thinking it was from driving to work I reset it and walked from building to building and around the office. For what walking I did I had maybe 500 before it was time to leave work. I got home and I had about 1,800 steps. I reset it and let the phone sit till I left last night. When I got home I noticed it had a lot more steps than it should. Seems like its just tracking movement and counting x number of feet and y number of steps. I went in today to clear everything from the app so it's like I have never used it, I'd like a fresh start for when I do use it again.
Now to the question, is their a way to stop it from tracking me? Unless I have overlooked it I'm not seeing anything. I tried to shutoff location based services however it still keeps track of the number of steps. I just want to shut it off for when I'm in a car with out having to shut my phone off or put it in airplane mode.

It uses the accelerometer to know how many steps you are doing, its not using your location.

Actually, it appears there are several sensors working together to capture this data, though I'm sure the accelerometer plays it's part.
I've experienced the same thing though, so I'm guessing the sensors could use a firmware tweak - perhaps in a future update they will refine them more?

Thanks, I did mean accelerometer very loosely just to distinguish it from location based services, but its always nice to see the full list of sensors.

Thank, but how do I stop it when I don't want it running? When I'm driving its registering as steps.

I haven't used it yet. Does it have much drain on battery?

When I had it running I didn't notice an issue. However I did shutoff GPS.

Can someone explain this to me please ?

Hi guys,
Im still disappointed about my screen and looking to exchange my phone pretty soon. But for now I have other issue.
Tonight I was texting with my phone and my battery was around 60%, then suddenly my phone froze and it got shut-off. I tried to turn it on but nothing happened so I removed the battery and the phone turnes on just fine. Then I notice a ~%30 drop in my battery level as it shows in the picture I have attached. What the hell is this and why mu phone froze ??
I never rooted the phone and it is still lock to Telus.
Thank You in advance.

well according tot he usage tracker, there was some serious usage by the drop on WiFi, Awake and Screen
on the other hand that sudden drop, could mean the battery actually had less charge than the sensor detected, so it readjusted itself
Oh so after the restarted the phone detected the actual charge of the phone ? So thata kinda normal ?
How about the frozen phone ? Has anyone had their T989 phone frozen so far ?
Sent from my SGH-T989D using Tapatalk
I've had mine for almost 2 weeks now (stock, not rooted) and it hasn't frozen/restarted/etc.
Also luckily I have minimal screen issues. I would exchange it and hopefully get a better one, because I really love this phone!
Not sure in your case but
i know some root only required apps allow you to push/continue anyways maybe a force close or something caused a freeze

The amazing moving app drawer!

Over the past couple of days, the app drawer on my unrooted stock Note 2 had taken to moving about randomly.
I'm not overly concerned about it, but I'm wondering if anyone else had experienced this.
Thus far, I've seen it move to the centre and the second rightmost position.
This morning, I actually watched it swap position when I unlocked my phone.
Regards,
Dave

It would be awesome if we can move it on command though, I want it in the middle.
Is everything still working correctly when it's moved?

Yes, everything still works fine. I wouldn't mind it in the centre all the time either.
Thus far, moving the other shortcuts around tends to snap the app drawer back, but it was weird this morning to see it move because I could swear it was animated (as opposed to simply just flipping position).

BTW turn your friggin wifi off if you're not using it, same goes for BT. Why would you waste your battery?

On this phone, doesnt matter. I no longer worry about cutting any service off and cant kill my battery! This is the way all phones should work! :good:

Thanks for the advice, but no thanks!
Battery life on the Note 2 is frankly epic, even if I leave WiFi and BT on.
I don't go chasing battery life on a device that can easily get me through the day.

Facebook showing GPS usage when it's disabled (4.2.1)?

Why does the GPS area in the screenshot show over 90 minutes of usage when I have GPS turned off? Any ideas?

Facebook has been long known to be a poorly coded app (even the newest version) I've stuck to using the browser only because it's so buggy. I'd chalk it up to that...
Turn location off inside settings of app.

The lastest build of their app is by far the worst I have used personally. Someone posted an older build which does not have as many features, but it is way less buggy.
LMK if you want a link.

That's exactly what was happening with my phone. I've been using the app that dschreiber69 provided earlier in this thread, but because Facebook eats so much battery on this phone I haven't been using it much anymore. Furthermore, I haven't been using Facebook much on either my phone or a computer. I'm getting sick of it, same crap every day. Nothing new. Blah.

Works perfect! Installed no problem, full functionality! Thanks

Only thing so far is it stopped when I got a call during navigation. Dont know if itll keep happening but thats the only thing so far that hasnt worked.

I ended up going back to the old version because they brought back some annoyances in the version, they had finally removed in the previous updates.
One, I use the map for just general guidance and traffic(not really point A to B directions). This new version never seems to remember the mode I left the map in, when I go back. So when the map shows, it doesn't remember I use view from behind "follow" type view(so I am always facing "up"). I have to hit the little button on the bottom right a few times to find the correct view.
Seconds, the map and text on the map is now too small by default again. It also doesn't remember my previous zoom level. The old version had this issue till later updates made the road names larger.
Also, when going under/over an overpass, the map goes bonkers, not knowing if I'm on the cross street or the road I was on as the map starts adjusting it's view wildly, till I'm passed the overpass. This gets VERY annoying when trying to see exits/entrances to highways.
I'll wait till they work out the kinks.
At first I didn't like it either but if your mind is dev material then everything becomes VERY easy, very quick.

The update sucks. They dropped way too many useful features. Reminds me of an iPhone app now. Pretty but limited functionality. Trying to revert to old one as I type this.
Yep. While it is pretty and smooth, functionally, it leaves a lot to be desired compared to the previous version.
Look at the comments section on the Play Store. Not too many people liking it at all.

And it definitely doesnt handle multi tasking very well. Doing anything else during navigation force closes it. Not very good when ur on the freeway and u get a call and it closes and u have no idea where ur going. Lol. Had to go back to old version.

weird bluetooth battery stats.

Anyone else seeing impossible battery stats for bluetooth on the latest MM stock rom? 21 days? I think not. This rom hasn't even been around for 21 days.

From which page you bring this information.
I turned on my Bluetooth to test it but it doesn't display like this information.
And when I tapped on system app Bluetooth it displays
Battery..... 0%.
I think it is a weird thing.
We already have had the MM since 1 week only.
Maybe the lollipop statistics or the beta MM are added.

Under Battery usage, Bluetooth shows up as the first item. Tap on Bluetooth to see details, After a full charge the time on starts at zero and goes up about a day every hour. Something's not right.
Lol something is off there. As I hit BT in battery I see something like 19 hours and change. Hit back then tap BT again and its at 20 hours. Again and its at 21 lol. Phone is off the charger for about 2 hours.

It was disabled. And the runtime seems to go up by about 1 day per hour running. Not right.
