My current ROM is http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2462453

G2 apps added E988 ROM (F240/E980) V5 with Knock On

It had great battery life (60+ hrs of "normal" use for me), but I am thinking of upgrading to Android 4.4. I have a few questions about this ROM (4.4 version). I did do a quick search, but my tablet is weird and whenI try to read posts that come up in the results, I am always brought to the last page of the thread.

1. First, does this have a feature like the Smart Screen, where the screen stays on when you are looking at it?

2. Second, assuming that you don't have any battery draining apps installed, how does this ROM compare in battery life to stock? (Even better, how does it compare to the ROM I linked to above... if anyone has tried it)

I know this is kind of based on individual use, but I'm just try to get a basic comparison.

3. Third, does music and calls over bluetooth work? I have a set of bluetooth headphones that I use for music and phone calls.

4. Does this come with a kernel? How is its battery life?

4.1. Is there a different (compatible) kernel recommended for better battery life?

I'd appreciate any answers, and sorry if these were answered already.
[LG Optimus G Pro] skyliner33v:
1. No it does not.

2. Battery life is great for me. Deep sleeps like it should. See attached picture.

3. I don't use it so I'm not sure. Maybe someone else can chime in that has tried it.

4. Comes with the stock cm kernel.

5. Any kernel that supports your model should work with this rom. I don't use another one so I'm unsure.

The DSP Manager is still FC.

But still, i will be using this ROM for my daily usage, just hope someday, the DSP Manager FC can be resolved.

Just did a clean install and didnt change DPI settings and I'm having issues with the play store not showing all apps. DPI is set at default. Any ideas what can be causing this?..
[LG Optimus G Pro] skyliner33v:
I believe mar5hal has found a fix for this in the BS_Harmony thread. His fix would work for this rom as they are essentially the same. I would wait for him to post his fix. And thank him for it too.

What apps are you trying to download?
[LG Optimus G Pro] ProAm500:
i cant download any SMS apps. They all say incompatible with this device. Those are the only ones that I can see so far that I'm having issues with.
[LG Optimus G Pro] skyliner33v:
I just tried whatsapp and got the device not compatible message. My dpi is 360. So i installed market helper and followed the instructions. I spoofed the S3 for US and at&t. See thread here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2146216

Tried whatsapp again and still not compatible. Rebooted and tried whatsapp again. Now it will let me install it. See pic:

Hope that helps.

Seems like I'm able to install other sms apps as well now.

I just flashed this rom like it but Google now is not working and lte will not stay on have to keep changing it from H
[LG Optimus G Pro] skyliner33v:
Lte sticks for me. And google now works too. What gapps did you use? I highly recommend using banks 4.4.2 standard gapps. And for lte, check under settings, more, mobile networks and make sure preferred network type is set to lte. And apn is set to att lte. (assuming you are on att)
[LG Optimus G Pro] jason504:
I did the preferred network let's see how it goes I used the gapps in the op
[LG Optimus G Pro] ProAm500:
got it to work. any idea why this work around is needed? is it a dpi issue?
[LG Optimus G Pro] skyliner33v:
I'm pretty sure it is. One thing i didn't try was rebooting after playing around with the dpi. It might have worked then.
[LG Optimus G Pro] nerdyblonde:
I decided to do a clean flash last night (TWRP), install the new version, and then restore with TiBu.. I must say since I did, my battery life has been A LOT better.. I do a few tweaks with System Tuner Pro, Greenify and TiBu, but there is still a noticeable change. I believe it's sleeping better too. One thing I did notice (and I apologize if I'm looking right over it) is under Display and Lights, there isn't a place to add applications to use custom lights with. I checked "use custom values", and tried choosing the menu button, but still don't see any option to add an app.

Also, one more question, is there a way to remove the built in font size changer? There is a font I love to use, but it shows up kind of big, and even though I have it set to 85%, it is still large. I tried downloading font size changing apps, but they all give errors saying they are conflicting with the built in changer. I always try my best to figure things out before posting on here, but just having a little trouble. Thanks for your hard work in developing the rom! :good:
[LG Optimus G Pro] skyliner33v:
Is there a +Add button on the top right? See pic below.

As for the font. Im afraid i dont know of a way to remove it easily. And i can't make changes to the source or it will lose it's official status. What font is it you are trying to use? I will play around with it and see if i can figure out a workaround.
[LG Optimus G Pro] lekhwani:
Can this Rom be flashed on e988 india version.
[LG Optimus G Pro] skyliner33v:
It is based on the official cm source so it should work. But like i said before, i will only support the att e980. So flash at your own risk.
[LG Optimus G Pro] nerdyblonde:
I knew I was looking right over it.. :cyclops: The theme I have set with theme chooser has a black border and the "+" was a dark purple, so that's why I couldn't see it. I will attach the font to this post.. I downloaded font creator, and tried to scale it a little but it seemed to mess up the letters when I installed it. It's not that big of a deal, I just like to have the system font a little smaller. Thanks for your help though! I appreciate it!

View attachment 2517861

As soon as I got done typing this, I tried to size the font again on my phone. For some reason, it isn't changing the size at all on the system menu or anything. It says the same size whether it's set to 85% or 130%. I tried another font too, and the same thing happened. Maybe I just didn't notice before it wasn't changing at all. I may have to reflash or try another font installation app. I'm using Rom Toolbox Pro.
[LG Optimus G Pro] ricco333:
Here are some Font packs that are flashable http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2579532, just pick the want you one and it will change your system font as desired, there are a lot of them and I did not look to see if they had the one you are looking for but it may be worth to take a look.

Awesome to see another official custom rom for our beloved g pro! Thanks and great work devs
[LG Optimus G Pro] 3165dwayne:
try xposed

install xposed then install xblast. click on modules then xblast then in xblast there will be an option called xlocky, you should click on that. you can even change the background in the holo theme by going into visual tweaks. Be warned that this wallpaper that would be applied in the holo theme would show up elsewhere as well, such as the sms app.
[LG Optimus G Pro] arifqur:
Man its really great that you picked up on this thread and rom.

It is going to be great to have this rom developed for our OGPro.

It's sad to see so little development for this amazing phone which is grossly underrated, probably due to bad marketing by LG.
[LG Optimus G Pro] nerdyblonde:
Yea I was really excited as well when I seen that he as going to keep up with it.. I wish there was the same amount of kernels and roms for the LG as there is for the Samsung. I had the S4 and switched over and wouldn't ever go back to a Samsung. I would use a Blackberry before I did. Same with TV's.. I have a LG and a Samsung and the LG puts the Samsung to shame. They sure could use better marketing reps! Thanks again for your hard work on the rom!

Me too no more Samsung but LG NEED BRING UPDATES ON TIME if not care of that they simply not on map again......Hello Moto ?
[LG Optimus G Pro] Daved+:
I have a bug that I discovered with BSHarmony that it also happens with your ROM. The clock in the status bar disappears when I turn off and turn on the phone again without going thru the lock screen.

This is the video I recorded with BSHarmony but the same thing happens with your latest ROM:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DfCxJHmaHhk&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Thank you
[LG Optimus G Pro] skyliner33v:
Thats definitely weird. I will talk with the main dev and see if he knows about it and can possibly have a fix.
[LG Optimus G Pro] dave71670:
I do not have this problem with beanstalk. Are you using nova launcher with hide clock option set?
[LG Optimus G Pro] Daved+:
No, I'm using the kitkat launcher which has no options.
[LG Optimus G Pro] dave71670:
OK. I am trying every different combo to get my device to reproduce this and it will not. The fix must have already been committed by Scott as I am running a 01/17 build.
[LG Optimus G Pro] Daved+:
Are these your security settings?

It does not happen to me if the screen lock is none.
[LG Optimus G Pro] dave71670:
Yes. Duplicated your settings again and no issue.
[LG Optimus G Pro] Daved+:
Well, if I don't use a screen lock it doesn't happen, it works just fine. Any ideas on what's causing it?
[LG Optimus G Pro] 7sen:
please release update for htc one :(
[LG Optimus G Pro] dave71670:
Not quite sure. Looking through commits and it may be missing strings commit but I am not positive. Should be good in next release.

First off: awesome ROM! Thank you for your awesome work. Now, a humble request: sliders that let us select a precise time limit for active display. I'd like to make the displacer gently pulse... Like 5 seconds on, fade off, then back on like 10 seconds later. Possible?

Rom Questions

Hi guys, how are you today? I had a question about this rom, so on the e980 there is already navigation buttons I was wondering why and if there is a way to get rid of the extra one that is above it. Also I was so intrigued by this rom from the pictures I saw on here. Can we get it to look like that?

Thank,Matt
[LG Optimus G Pro] nerdyblonde:

Clock is fine, shows in the status bar after turning it off/on.

But DSPManager force closes with every player. I installed the patch from BSHarmony and it fixed it.

[LG Optimus G Pro] Daved+:
Would you please share that MMS zip with us?

Sure.. I'm sure you know, but flash through recovery.. I used the Lokified TWRP.. Not a fan of CWM.

In Call Microphone

First of all, awesome rom!

I've had several roms and each of them, when I call to somebody the hear me very low.

Any workaround?
[LG Optimus G Pro] skyliner33v:
This is a common issue with cm based roms and its not limited to this rom. But it seems to be hit or miss on who is affected. Unfortunately fixing it is far above my skill level.
[LG Optimus G Pro] Daved+:
My phone shuts down itself and I have to take the battery out to be able to turn it on again when using the camera app. If I use a third party app it works just fine. It didn't happen with the previous build.

Do you prefer cwm to twrp? I have a lokified twrp that I use to flash everything.. Never had an issue flashing or backing up/restoring. Everything on this rom works great. Make sure you do a complete clean wipe and I use "format data" in twrp. If you want the twrp zip I can attach it, and you can flash it thru cwm.

The one included in the ROM is the one that turns my phone off. ProCapture works just fine. Thanks
[LG Optimus G Pro] skyliner33v:
Thats a strange one. I tested the stock one on mine and I don't have those issues. Maybe a clean reflash will get it working again.
[LG Optimus G Pro] skyliner33v:
No issues with battery drain here. Make sure to turn off services when not using them. Wifi, gps, etc. Also, use a battery stats or wakelock detector app to see what specifically is causing your drains.

And I'm not sure what to tell you about san andreas man. I don't have it so i cant test it.
[LG Optimus G Pro] adizzle23:
Yea I have wakelock and BBS installed and nothing out of the ordinary was going on but I tried reflashing and redownloading but nothing would fix San Andreas. The battery drain probably wasn't a ROM problem because I didn't have the new update installed long enough to let it settle. I went back to the earlier version of the ROM and now all is good again. Thanks [MENTION=4396647]skyliner33v[/MENTION] again for the great support and all the hard work. It's people like u who make this small community one of the best ones around.

Does it have photosphere?
[LG Optimus G Pro] dginsd:
I've had bad experiences every time I've tried twrp, so I want to stick with cwm if possible the version I'm using is lokified,but my main concern was making sure I didn't need a specific version to flash a kitkat rom? Thanks for the response and help.
[LG Optimus G Pro] nerdyblonde:
I had bad experiences with twrp before I got the good version I have now.. The touch controls wouldn't work at all. But it works great now, and has more features than cwm.. But of course to each their own... As for a specific version, my guess is as long as it is lokified you shouldn't have a problem flashing a 4.4 rom. Good luck, and I'm sure you will love this rom and it's features.

I just found a really strange problem happening to my phone.. I hadn't noticed it prior because I am always on wifi at home and work both, but whenever I go out and I'm not connected to wifi, my cell signal stays on for like 5 seconds then drops off again.. As long as wifi is on, my signal stays. I checked my APN settings and they are correct.. I have it set to LTE and then PTA for the APN. I also made sure I didn't have my screen set to use 2g to save battery..I tried reflashing as well.. Never seen this before.. I took a video of my screen to post..I put it in a zip file because mp4 files aren't supported on here.. Any help would be appreciated!

[LG Optimus G Pro] dginsd:
Use the ATT Phone APN and make sure it matches these photos. Delete all the other apns. You should only have to change "APN type" make sure the order is correct "default,mms,supl,hipri,fota", you can leave off fota if you like as we will never use it. Reboot and see if that helps, might be something else though, I had a similar problem on stock ended up being an exposed module I was using, it screwed things up so bad I had to completely reflash the stock firmware to get things working right again, hopefully you won't have to go that far.
[LG Optimus G Pro] dginsd:
This Camera works and has the 13MP setting but it doesn't have photosphere, or have I just done something wrong?

I had all the correct settings and kept doing things until I figured out it was the new connection manager.. I turned it off, and my phone started working fine! Glad it was an easy fix before I started doing unnecessary stuff.. Thanks for your help!

Try this camera and see if photosphere is working. I havent tested it though. Its from BaNkS. Flash through recovery.

http://goo.im/devs/BaNkS/GApps/4.4.2/1-16_GoogleCamera_4.4.2_signed.zip

Edit: i flashed it and photosphere is working, but it seems to only be 8mp.
[LG Optimus G Pro] dginsd:
So going through and setting things up I have a 2 questions. To start with I haven't found the PIE controls which were one of my favorite things this ROM provided, especially with it's ultra customization capability, is this something that has been removed permanently, or something that just isn't playing nicely with kitkat yet and is still being worked on? Maybe a better question for Scott but maybe you guys have talked.

Next it regarding the Xposed framework, App Settings module has anyone else installed it and gotten it to work? I've gotten both the framework and the module installed, but it seems to have no effect on the app settings, just curious of other peoples experiences.

Is root working OK for everybody, I updated it using the instructions in the OP; download superSU etc., I can use apps that require root but I only get asked occasionally to grant privileges and nothing is listed in settings under superuser for policies. Has something not flashed right, do I need to start over?

That last Camera.zip you posted has the photosphere but only goes up to 8MP, wierd.
[LG Optimus G Pro] skyliner33v:
Pie isnt included yet. I'm sure scott is looking into it. I still need to update the op to reflect the current features. Those were from past 4.3 builds.

Don't use xposed so i won't be any help there. Anyone else use it?

Did you uninstall supersu after updating the root binary? Leaving supersu installed can cause issues with the superuser baked into the rom. I haven't had any issues with root.

Still looking for a flashable camera with working photosphere and 13mp.
[LG Optimus G Pro] nerdyblonde:
As for pie, you can get Pie Pro from the Play Store... I use it and it works just like the pie that is built in on previous Beanstalk roms...

What modules are you using in Xposed? I use a few of them and they work fine..

Root works for me.. Only time it asks me to grant is if I clear data or do a clean flash.. I actually left supersu and busybox installed.. Whenever I exit twrp it tells me root isn't right and asks if I want to fix it.. I choose not to, and everything still works fine...
