Never really saw the need for more than 8GB of RAM as computers hardly cross 6GB of used RAM unless you're like me who uses Photoshop, AutoCAD and Illustrator all the time.

Beastly set up BTW roach

 

[Mr.Bollywood]

My god Roach , that's a beastly setup!!

Thanks... built it myself... reason i have 12gb ram is because i end up getting a deal if i take the 3 4gb sticks all together....

 

[Steven Ramadar]

[Steven Ramadar]

Newegg.com , start looking there. Water cooling is a lot more efficient but I have a fear about leaks, although it is near impossible.

Dont have a skybox... Hmmm i should start a thread... :idea:

 

[Mr.Bollywood]

Great idea! I don't have a skybox either, if I did I would be absolutely completely broke with the most useless stuff ever lmao I will can't help myself buying car parts, computer parts and assorted random things lmao

 

[sonygoup]

well guys i woke up this morning to find my LG G2 software bricked, apparently somewhere inbetween 12:34Am and 7 Am the phone downloaded and installed the OTA update so i was stuck in a TWRP bootloop, ended up loosing all my data, my apps etc, some fond memories gone because of that

well if this happens to anyone else , before you wipe and factory reset, or try to flash and mount USB storage etc, and loose all your data and stufff just type in this in the Terminal command in TWRP

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota do this one first, then clear the command terminal and type in this second.

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/misc

go back to the home screen of TWRP and reboot, your back to stock firmware

after that experience, im just downloading a G3 ROM and flashing it, going to collect OTA updates from the Optimus G3 team!

 

[Steven Ramadar]

Sorry to hear :/ at least it'll be back up and running now

 

[Mr.Bollywood]

Yepp just got it installed ,tbh I'm actually kinda disappointed by it ,lost some very valuable features, plus I can't connect to my computer now as a MTP device, and I have lost all my data

 

[Steven Ramadar]

The struggle is real...now you know to disable that auto download/install

 

[-Kevin-]

Damn sorry to hear bro... I had a problem recently where my memory card keeps ejecting itself and re-mounting itself at random... It did it so much times the card itself malfunctioned and i had to format it... Hmm... Lost all my daughter's pics etc..

 

[Steven Ramadar]

These are the things you supposed to ask me about....easy fix. Would have recovered all the pictures for you bro
