  1. Thanks for addressing this and keep up the good work. Ignore the willingfull hate.
  2. So first of, love this guide. I've successfully turned a D852 into a Lineage OS 16 Phone, and its the best experience I've ever had with a phone, thanks so much. I've not been able to get it working with a D850 (that is using a global rom apparently) its an AT&T variant from "China", and it kinda sucks but it still works for my partner. I'm the only one that needed all the newer apps. But I've been having an issue I cant seem to fix with the D852. How do you install the custom recovery after installing the OS? because its needed even for small updates,and I'd have to revert the phone back everytime. other than that the phone works perfectly. Sorry if Its a simple answer, but I've been using this guide to get into the Android environment. Assuming that a Root relates more to the hardware and not the software there would be no way to install Lineage OS with root, but If I'm mistaken I'd love to know how to do that on the LG G3 for the updated versions of Lieage OS. I've not found a clear answer or well described method. Edit: I didn't check the dev settings, Advanced reeboot solved my issue, so I could throw it into Recovery. Now I'm able to continue the updates without having to worry about the phone bricking because there is no recovery installed. (Was trying to use the Vol Dwn + Power to get to recovery but it doesnt work anymore.) We also replaced the D850 with another D852, and our issues are solved, and we have reserve parts to fix the phones. Thank you so much for bringing attention to this method for me, It has made our life so much easier and convenient, pursuit of knowledge simpler and constant, Merci and keep up the amazing work! We both Upgraded the Phones with Cases to protect them in the future from clumsy drops and such. as well as 64GB SDXC cards, YEEET! Big upgrades from Iphone4s's (Left most right most)
  3. Well, YouTube seems to be rather open to it, because If I'm not mistaken, Phillip Defranco was also on Vessel way back.
  4. Hiya, first of all wanted to throw this request in because I keep hearing people recommending creators for the platform, when there's one that's been really effected by you-tubes demonetization. Phillip Defranco. I know that they've been kind of using their own methods, but It probably wouldn't hurt to reach out. I think It would benefit both parties quite well.
  5. I think I saw 2018 in the trailer. or maybe that was for Devs.
  6. https://atap.google.com/ara/ Whoa.
  7. Found Something Close Enough. https://sdi-tool.org/
  8. Okay, It took me a while to get it set up, but I finally have a Windows Install on an External Hard Drive. and I can Plug it into any Computer and Boot. (x86 Windows 8.1) I was wondering if it is possible to Download All, or if possible As many as possible network drivers for windows from windows update. this way I never have to worry about not having internet on the portable system.
  9. If you Are Using an OEM Key, the License is Bound to your motherboard, and Can't Be moved. Generally OEM keys are Cheaper. Standard Retail Keys, Can be Moved from Computer to Computer, However, you Need to Deactivate the Current Computer that the Key was Being Used on, Otherwise, you Can't Move it to the New Computer. (you can Call Microsoft, or do it within Windows I Belive) However, I have noticed a bit of a Flaw with Windows 8.1 and 10 Activation, When I updated to Windows 10, there were Some Games that Simply Did not work, So I Added a Windows 8.1 Install for Dual Boot. To my Utter Surprise, it started using the Old windows 8.1 Key, that my Computer used for the upgrade, even though I was using it on Windows 10. as far as I can Tell, Both are Legit, but I found it strange nonetheless. I was Trying to Get the Computer to use the old Built in NON Pro OEM Key instead of my Retail key for Pro, but I guess I downloaded the wrong disk.
  10. I'd Love to say that my first computer was one from 1980 or something, but in reality, it's not. When I was 7, I got to visit my dad's for the first time in years, (Family issues) I played Diablo II on his Windows 95 Machine, I have literally No idea what System Specs the computer had, but it wasn't my first computer, so that doesn't really matter. I did learn some pretty interesting things, Like how you could put a random user account and password and have full access to the computer (Providing there was no Document Protection), and a bunch of other useful tidbits of info. Fast Forward to Grade 7, and Lots had happened. My mom said she would get me a computer in half a year, but that ended up being a lie. So, I went to school, and Boom, Found an Old Dell Desktop Computer, with a 2.4GHz Pentium 4 on the side of the Road. This was about 2007-2008. Not a very impressive computer, but it was better than nothing. I think it also had an old Geforce4 MX 4** or something. It took me about half a year to get the money to get a proper hard drive, and I was so naive that I thought Windows came Installed on a Brand New Hard drive. Lol. So, I ended up getting my friends windows XP disk, and I installed it, but I had My Computer in Processor Compatibility Mode, without realizing it. So I ended up having windows XP install, WITHOUT EXPLORER. Yeah, Explorer wouldn't run. Not to mention, that I didn't have a valid Product key, so I had to reinstall the Trial every 30 Days. In case you are wondering how I ran programs, I used CTRL + ALT + DEL, to run Program to browse Folders, and launch Applications. First Time I reinstalled, I had lost all my documents, so I Got Learnt about Partitions, and unencrypted documents. So I was able to play some very Basic Games, Red Faction, and The Great Escape Video Game. Every week, I went out in the middle of the night looking for Computers that were thrown on the Curb. I ended up finding lots of parts, and such, that I ended up using. Better Space Hard drives, a Geforce5 Graphics Card, TONS of 2000 Era Tech, and even TONS of 95 Eras Tech. It was here that I realized how important it was to delete your Data before Throwing Computers out, because I found an old 95 machine that had ALL of a Company’s Tax info and such. And even the person who owned it. Eventually, I came upon a Very Lucky Find. An Intel Motherboard, sitting in a case, soaked with Rain. I thought for a fact that it was dead. I took it back and tried it anyway, it Blue screened, and I couldn't get it to work and I couldn't get it to Stop Blue-screening, no matter what I did. (I Left it in a dry place and didn't use it for a week before trying). I gave up on it. I then found a Rare Sound Card for PC, that Now Makes Headphones. It was a Santa Cruz turtle beach sound card. I used that for So Long, but didn't realize how badly I would need it later. The audio ports on the Motherboard I had found that Blue screened had Been Ripped off by the previous user. So, one day, when I was bored, and found a new case I wanted to move my computer to, I decided to give the Intel Board a try again. And it worked, and damn was it SO much better. I went from a 2.4GHz Processor, to a 3.0GHz Processor that had 2 Threads. It was awesome; I had my First Real Processor Upgrade! I moved all my data over to the new computer, kept the motherboard, and tossed the case, with a bit of hesitation. At this time, I HAD NO IDEA about Thermal Paste. Yup, you guessed it, I Was Running "Steel on Steel" My Idle Temperature was 46 Degrees Celsius. When Playing a Game, I hit 80+ Degrees. I was having issues playing a bunch of games, and playing 720p Video. And 1080p video just wouldn't play. a Friend told me about Thermal Paste and I was Amazed, I had just upgraded to Windows 7, and my graphics card didn't support the OS, But I didn't Know that. So I Immediately Experienced a HUGE Performance Boost from the Thermal Paste, Obviously. 1080p videos played with little trouble, and my computer was fine with temperatures, around 60 - 70 degrees, when gaming instead. It's funny that the only game that made my computer crash from overheating was Star Wars KOTOR II the Sith Lords. Eventually I found the Godsend of Finds. THE LAST AGP 8X Video card. The ATI HD 4650 AGP 1GB GDDR3. (I think it was GDDR3?) I put it in, and that’s where the real fun began. Just Cause 3. 30FPS Low Settings Skyrim, 30FPS Low - Medium Settings Alan Wake, 30 FPS Low many other games were now playable to me, and I guess for the time 30 FPS and low settings weren't impressive at all, but I was still Impressed because i could play games that I never would have thought Possible. Even the Tomb Raider game was "playable", (10-30 FPS with a GPU overclock) And All Of This Was Free, and Took about 4-5 Years. EDIT: Oh right, the hard drive I bought ended up not working anyway, and the place I bought it from wouldn't take it back, so it was a Waste, and I don't count it as money spent on the computer.
  11. I'm Kinda Both. I need the Hardware that allows me to play games, but in a job capacity. so I get the hardware for work, and then boom, I can game.
  12. I Would go with a Laptop. if you don't already have one, it's worth it. as long as it doesn't suck so bad you can't use it for media.
  13. GOOD: It Works Flawlessly BAD: It has Windows 10
  14. You wouldn't know of a way to bind a Resolution change, or Driver reset to a key combination would you? even a program that does that?
  15. I'm Rocking a MSI GT72 2QD Dominator. 2 of the Windows 10 installs were upgrades, but it ended up not being worth it, Data got Corrupted in the first install, and apps were corrupted in the Second, so later on I decided to do a clean install. My laptop's Integrated GPU does not function when the 970m is on. I have to turn in on with a Button on the laptop and restart, then the 970m goes away. so yes, my laptop is always using the 970m all the time. I think it's because the integrated Graphics is part of the CPU that both aren't used at the same time. Intel Core i7-5700HQ (Quad Core - Octo Thread)
  16. I have done So many reinstalls over time, took me 3 tries to get windows 10 working. (*Sigh*) the problem persists. also, multiple driver versions, no fix, even the driver without Gsync, no fix, and I thought that could have been the culprit. I haven't yet had the chance to upgrade my laptop's graphics card, so no other GPU drivers are there, except for the never used integrated graphics, which is off all the time. Doesn't even appear in device manager until it's turned on. and yeah, still happens in safe mode, Cross Platform. but requires me turning on a bunch of things manually to get working. This is the only *Perfect* install of Windows 10 I have managed to get on my laptop. so It would be nice to get this fixed. lol
  17. I have Utilized most that I can think of. (Win+D wasn't one I remembered.) I used Alt+Tab, it tabbed out of the game but nothing changed, I used Alt F4, and it quit the game and nothing happened to the display. I was thinking that the game might be making the display change to an unsupported resolution, but i doubt that's the case, unless the game is telling the display the wrong information. Also, this is a cross OS (W8.1 W10) issue, that I have had. also, sometimes it only happens when exiting the game, not just on startup.
  18. Sadly, I can't do that because Even opening Task Manager doesn't help in this case. because I can't see the task manager, just a black screen where the game was, and my desktop on the other screen, frozen in place. I could leave music playing for example, and my entire music library would play, but the screen would still be frozen. I could also use they keyboard to change tracks and such, so I know the computer doesn't freeze.
  19. Okay, I've Come Across an issue, not a major one, but one that left me with a question. but First, I should Probably give more info. I Currently have a GT72 2QD, with a GTX970m. Dual Boot Windows 10 and 8.1. (Because some games just refuse to work for 10 for me) When I try playing old Games, Like REALLY old Games, "Star Wars Jedi Knight Dark Forces", "The Great Escape Video Game" and others like that, they work fine, but occasionally, when the Resolution of my screen changes to the res needed for the game, the screen, (Or Screens if I'm using my Dual Monitor Setup) the Display will completely freeze up. the game doesn't crash, and the computer still functions as though nothing was wrong, and requires me to restart the computer manually to fix. I know that there are ways of restarting the display driver without restart, but all the way's I have found require you to be able to see what you are doing. I'm wondering if anyone knows a way of creating a macro, or key combonation to reset the display adapter. or anyway to macro a resolution change.
  20. Rig Name: BLACK-JADE-Z CPU: Intel i7-5700HQ 2.7GHz (3.2GHz) GPU: Nvidia GTX 970m 3GB Windows 10 Pro x64 Capable.
