hi, sorry if i dont speak english correctly.
im from brazil and a have the defy that came from the factory with froyo 2.2 (march 2011)
he had red lens and motoblur (not rooted)
my problem is that the defy is opening and calling automatic
when i lock the screen and put in the pocket of the pants he calls to my wife or open the menu of the carrier(claro) with a lot of options chosed.
can someone help me with this case? is this the touchscreen problem? or is the froyo version problem?
thx for the attention
edit: he called one time to police, i only discovered when i pickup the phone and viewed the latest calls!
I would think your phone is being hijack... Or some king of malicious codes resides notoriously in your phone system..
Try to reflash or update it to see if it work.
I assume you put it in the side pockets of your pants, face the touch screen away from your thighs, sometimes the unlock button on top is being pressed and since it has a capacitive touch screen your skin can operate it randomly, that happens a lot for me before, but when I put a pattern lock on it, it stopped operating by itself
Well it is a defy, defying its owner. try both suggestions above, but before you reflash, try factory reset first then update.

more information
in fact, i have always used the pattern lock, and i think that is not a malicious code, because the defy is not rooted and i do not install suspects apps...
*edit: its a new defy, 2 months
another detail i forget: when it happens, the phone is frying (+40º) without overclock (not rooted), i think theres a link between the actions and the temp.
temp high = actions (even with the pattern lock)
i want to know if anyone have this problem too..
thx for the replies....
you dont have to worry 40celsius is fine if your doing high preformance tasks on the phone like watching video,playing games,recording video,benchmarking and even while charging the phone you can easily get up to 38-40 celsius however high tempeture means less battery juice

the phone archieves the 40º+ -in the side pocket- without any high performance tasks running. (and not charging)
this happens 1-3 times a week, not every day and hour.
Another step which I always practice in mind.
Use task manager (App) to auto kill any app you don't want them to run when your phone is in idle or sleeping mode. I use the dafault Task Manager (gingerbread has it) and this task manager will auto kill my selected apps after 2min when the phone in idle mode. Next I also use DroidWall to block my selected apps from trying accessing the internet. For your infor. Some apps are constantly neeed or trying to access the internet, thus might draining your battery quicker and make your device hot, these apps normally running silently in the background.
Lastly I use AVGpro to protect my device in real time(scanning & monitoring) from being infected... Just don't want my Defy catching cold or fever...
Try and install watchdog. You can see which app is misbehaving

i already used the advanced task killer
i think i already know what is, the widgets.....
but now i have another problemSSS.
i rooted with superoneclick 2.1(ok) i overclocked with setvsel(ok) i installed defy 2ndinit (camera stopped, unistalled 2ndinit its come back) try lg camera (ok) try lg camcoder (fail to record video in every know config, even with 2nd init unnistaled)

help me pls
You're messing things and making it complicated yourself.
Check your camera module. Some patch are only for red lens and only applicable to gingerbread rom. Make sure you get the right files for your froyo. Instal 2nd-init and set boot normal for the lgcamera 720p to work properly.
I would recommend you flash gingerbread rom if you're looking for stable 720p recording.

yes, im messing because i want to play one thing, and everything stopped working, im just trying one thing by one thing, but nothing worked.
i have already set the bootloader to normal by defalut, but nothing changed
the files are for 2.2 froyo and red lens (its my defy).
i want to go back because im still in the warranty period, but if theres nothing i can do, i will put the GB rom.
thx
Just flash . Look in the defy dev for the sbf. Read tutorials first
And before you do anything, make back up first. It is easier that way

hey guys...
i post other thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15898418#post15898418
things got very complicated....
but i have much experience from other phones and systems.
i found the solution, restored my camera, all the apps still working and i think this should help others...
thinking of flashing i discovered this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=945035 and i get the tools pack from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14801445#post14801445
i downloaded the sbf of my brand (claro 2.2.1) at http://and-developers.com/sbf:defy
i depacked the sbf and repacked only with the CG34.smg (boot) but not worked
so i thinked the system file CG39.smg will work (because when my windows fails i just reinstall the system files from cd and it works with all files and programs)
i repacked again with CG39 and CG34 (just for precaution) and the problems was solved (the camera and the boot loop).
all my programs are back, camera, games, everything, without flashing (the whole sbf) and without wipeing the data.....
i will post in the other thread too.
i thanks every reply!!!

what should i do?
Impossible.
I have tried htc 10 camera port, snap camera hdr, google camera. They are all the same. The best alternative is lg g2 camera port. You can see the difference in low light conditions.
This one:

You have to downgrade your display resolution to 1920x1080 @ 420 dpi.

Why there is LG G2 camera ported (without certain features, but it is), and there aren't any g3 camera port :/

Because G2 has a full hd display and this app comes from it.
If you run it on a qhd display like the G3 one you wiil encounter an incorrect visualization.
It's easy to change the resolution and dpi
using terminal emulator,if the phone is rooted

Easy DPI Changer works as well, and it is best to use lg g3 on 1080p res makes the phone much more fast and stable.
Hi, I also miss the superior quality of camera from stock ROM. I was trying to follow some tutorials on porting vendor apps to AOSP (getting the camera apk file, some libraries, framework files and permission files and compiling them all together), but it never worked with the camera. Sadly, I'm pretty sure that if it was possible, somebody smarter would have already done it. With LG being jerks and not releasing the sources, we most likely won't get the stock camera on AOSP, ever. That being said, I can think of four possible ways of dealing with the situation.
First, use stock ROM only. Yes, I know, that sucks. Or stock based ROM such as Fulmics, if you really think there is a difference between these two.
Second option is multirom. I was using it for last few months with LineageOS as primary and stock as secondary ROM, and everytime when I knew I would be taking some photos (when I went to concerts/holidays/celebrations/some unusual stuff), I booted to stock ROM and was good to go.
Third option is to have a TWRP backup of your current system and of stock ROM and restoring the backup of the ROM you want to use (AOSP for daily usage, stock for the days you know you'll be using your camera a lot). The previous (multirom) option is faster and easier to manage, and you can always add new ROMs and experiment as you wish. However, it requieres a custom recovery and I wasn't able to pass SafetyNet test with multirom and LineageOS with Magisk. Also, multirom makes a little bit of a mess at your /system partition. This third option (backing up/restoring system in TWRP) takes longer, the backups are large, but I'm liking that a bit more for some reason - it feels "cleaner" and more transparent to me.
The last option is to be on AOSP and use a camera app of your choice which you find has the best quality. I was experimenting with this a lot and tried dozens of camera apps (including the LG G2 camera port). Honestly, most of the photos were about the same quality. Even the G2 camera wasn't better than the rest I tested. I also compared the test pictures to stock camera (yes, I took the time to reboot to my secondary ROM for every test I was making at that time) and I was very sad that nothing was close to the stock camera quality. LG really does some magical post processing which works like a charm and looks really good. Anyways, after the tests I decided to stick with Snap Camera HDR. It has a trial and a paid version on the Play Store, in case you want to give it a shot. At good light conditions, the photos are actually comparable to stock camera. There is tons of settings to play with. It has a special "LG mode", which actually works even on AOSP ROMs and enables some LG specific features. It can also record 4K videos with stabilization. If you give it a try and really look into the settings (I recommend going also to the developer's website, where every option in the settings is described), you might end up with decent stock camera replacement. It took me about an hour to go through all the settings, but I'm fairly satisfied with the photos now. Although it has been last updated almost a year ago on the Play Store, there is a much more recent beta version here on the xda forums.
tl;dr I believe that porting stock camera app to AOSP is impossible. If you want stock camera quality, you really have to use stock ROM one way or another (either be on stock, or have a stock ROM TWRP backup and restore it whenever you want to take a good photo, or use multirom to switch your current ROM more quickly). If you want to use AOSP exclusively, I recommend Snap Camera HDR.

There's another option similar (or not) to multirom:
For installing multiple ROMs I use DualBootPatcher, a great method devised originally for the SGS4, but available for a number of devices now, including our G3. I highly recommend it, it seems cleaner than multirom to me and more user friendly. It is possible to flash ROMs from within the app (they have to be patched first, this also happens inside the app, hence the name), backup, restore and more. There may be some hiccups now and then, but all in all it works smoothly.
Just search the LG G3 forums for DualBootPatcher, there's a thread with download links, description and how-to.

Snap Camera would look good on good light conditions but the actual problem starts with low light, Snap camera adds too much noise on photos compared to LG Camera Port, LG camera port is also great on good light conditions. Any camera app can seem close to stock on good light but real comparison should be made on low light. None of them is comparable to stock LG G3 camera of course, i think laser autofocus and object tracking don't work in any of them.
Check my comparison below(On Snap Camera, LG mode and noise reduction enabled):

Try Snap Camera, or Open Camera.
What about Snapdragon Camera? There is a versione for Nougat that we could use?
Try Footej Camera
I've been on 7.1.1 on a Nexus 6 for the last few months, and got used to using some of the Android N interface. Specifically, I love the multi-window display, and also enjoy the Now On Tap
I used to use Fulmics on my LG G3, and as I transition back to my G3 I'm considering going back to it. I especially loved that it was built from the LG G3 Stock system, so it could utilize the camera at a firmware level that other ROMs could not. It also seems to be the best-supported, most well-vetted ROM out there, which all bodes well...
... that said, I'm wondering what I'd be missing out on if I go back to Fulmics.
What features of Android N aren't present, in some fashion or another, in Fulmics G3-stock-MM-based 7.6?
what do i miss from android N using Stock marshmallow?
Especially the notification system.
Instal appsl is way faster.
But i prefer to stay on Fulmics, i enjoy the quality of stock camera app.
Switching to english language u will get assistant on marshmallow btw.

How does the android n multi window display differ from the one lg has already implemented?
Hello all. just looking for some wise advice.
1: I see a lot of talk about rooting the phone. Is the just for the installation of a custom ROM, or for better functionality? I don't need cool heavy metal ROM surfaces my desktop is all black with all buttons hidden.
2: I saw no mention of bloatware, but generally speaking, how pure of an android experience is this? Can I simply uninstall whatever programs I want?
3: Any comments on the voice activation and and ease of use?
I basically need a gutsy daily driver, with good photo capabilities, (I also take photos at night as a part of my security job at a factory, and sometimes the photos for california License plates which are white reflect a lot of light and blur out on my Motorola Moto X pure), that I can give commands to while I am driving to take pictures and make calls, and check messages.
Is this the phone ror me?
Thanks!
1)Stock Rom behave as good as any custom rom. Most of the time people root their phone to have extra permission they may need to run apps that need it
2)You can remove every single piece of bloatware using ADB, no root needed
3)Works fine and is quite fast
Photos on stock rom are not Flagship level but neither crap.
For good photo capabilities I suggest you to use google camera with camera2 api enabled. The best way to achieve this is with magisk I think since with it you can hide root from various apps too while be able to enable camera2 api. But beware you should be on a firmware that a patch is available to make gcam working with it (library things.. Xiaomi changes things there a lot).
Or maybe you'd prefer a china based miui rom since the stock cam quality is better on china firmware. But for that prefer roms like xiaomi eu (because the stock china miui is in chinese and apps are default chinese apps)
Hi everyone,
I bought my S9 primarily for its camera specs. I tried out Ressurection Remix and Lineage roms, but they didn't let me shoot 4k 60fps it seems (I want to install the "zerocam mod"). So my question: Which Rom has a stock like camera capability? Or which Stock like rom is the best to be had in terms of battery life?
I am currently on rooted stock rom, because of the camera problems with those others custom roms. But being stock samsungs security hits me with the "black screen of death", which locks my phone everytime I go to sleep mode. So, I need to change to a custom rom I guess. That's why I started this thread.
Only Touchwiz based (ie: Stock based)
Just a question. Why do you have a "black screen of death"? Never heard about it.

On a german forum it was mentioned that Samsung built in some mechanic to prevent damage or something from the device.
So when going to sleep the display keeps being shut off. I don't know the details, but I installed the NoSOD app and it kind of works now mysteriously. It never goes to sleep or something now and the problem seems to be solved by it running all the time. Maybe I try another rom stock with touchwiz indeed.
