Hey Lrod, LOVE the ROM!!! Thanks!!!

Is there any way to boost the volume? I used another ROM ages ago (can't remember which) and it had great volume boost. I grew accustomed to listening to Pandora while getting ready in the morning, and now I can't hear my phone while in the shower :p

Thanks for everything you do! Keep up the good work! :D
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
Open viper4android, go all the way down in settings, I think u can change the sound output there.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] ThatKawaiiGuy:
Hey, when I flash this rom, and turn on the phone, almost as soon as it turns on I get "Exchange services has stopped unexpectedly" and then in about 4 seconds the phone reboots, and it repeats the process over and over.

Can anyone help?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Jamesredmond82:
Lrod I'm not sure how i did it...i know it has something to do with the home key
[Sprint LG Optimus G] _dannyboy:
Nah. I'm gonna try again on 5.0
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
I still haven't figured it out yes, mayba BonezMontana can chip in here....

Cool.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Jamesredmond82:
Lol that's cool. So now I'm wondering if the knock screen will possibly work
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
We need the lockscreen for the knock feature to work, man I'm kind of liking this theme more everytime I use it, I forgot to added in the op but it is in your themes settings. I've made it some time ago from next launcher.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BonezMontana:
That Pie menu? If you want to disable that, go into Gravitybox and then go to statusbar tweaks. You will see pie controls, go there and you can disable it by changing the setting under "Enable Pie Controls" to Never.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
It sounds like a wipe issue, go to recovery wipe cache and dalvik, fix permissions and reboot, if that doesn't work try reflashing the rom again.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
Numbers on top like the lg2 done for V5
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Jamesredmond82:
I want to know how i pulled it up exactly
[Sprint LG Optimus G] fiddy619:
5.0???
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
:sly::sly::confused::banghead:....:thumbup:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] fiddy619:
Hmmm, is it not testing well???
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
I wanna theme the phone apk with the g2 keys, before I release. I did the contacts key but the phone or dialer are giving me a little trouble, I should figure it out soon.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] fiddy619:
what do they look like?

***EDIT***

Ah, like so???
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
That one I have done already, that is part of the contacts.apk

The problem I have is this one, part of the dialer.

See the dark lines behind the numbers?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Smyc151:
Thanks for the quick reply! Before I posted the original question, I tried all the Viper settings, and nothing seems to boost volume. The other effects work, but not volume boost. Any thoughts? I'm still on 4.7 or so. Maybe I'll update to the latest and see how that one works.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
Oh man, you are missing on some good upgrades, look at op for all the changes, trust me its way worthy to update, anyways in this case u might wanna wait a little bit, I'm about to drop v5.0 maybe today.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Jamesredmond82:
Hey I've figured out how to do the pie controls. Just press home and slide up immediately to the screen.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Smyc151:
Lol, this is my problem! Every time I go to update, you tease me with the next version and I decide to wait for it ;)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
That works, however what features we can use, mine does nothing even when I press the keys?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Jamesredmond82:
I'm not sure i think you can go to pie controls in gravity box and change them. Lol ggggg Lrod you bade the ROM :)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
I'm gonna use a different background for the dialer and see if that fixes the issue with the black lines behind the numbers, then I can put the rom together, I just wanna have that lg2 feeling on the dialers as well since I have the numbers on the keyboard, which btw its a great feature, I don't know why all the keyboards don't come with that feature. I'll try to steal some time and finish it for u guys.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
OK, the dialer is done, I'm building V5.0 now and will be uploading asap!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
V5.0 up, read op for changes, enjoy!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] I-IoLLoW:
AWESOME! I would hit the thanks button but I'm over my 8 a day limit so Ill have to remember tomorrow. And my animations have officially made it to a rom, ty I am honored sir. From what I can also tell a large portion of what you've done with this rom is exactly what I've done to my stock(viper kernel, audio, xposed, etc) just way more than what I've done. I really want to flash v5.0 but until I can take a current backup I am refraining from flashing anything. :(
[Sprint LG Optimus G] DQEight:
Haha that's my problem too.

I'm not complaining though. Its good to see a dev love his ROM so much.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
What? Man u are missing out, there is a lot of changes in optimus compare to regular stock, fix that issue and lets go buddy, join the revolution, lol.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] fiddy619:
So, about to install 5.0, will the optimus blue blend zip work with this?

I like all the added icons in there, but I do also like the lg g2 dialer, and don't want to affect that...

---------- Post added at 01:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:51 PM ----------

What is causing you not to get a good backup?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] I-IoLLoW:
Hahaha Im trying to! I've flashed some of the prior versions but I spent days/weeks modifying my stock, customizing it, installing apps, etc. It's a pain to have to re-do all of that! I think I realized part of the issue, somehow I lost my kernel. Reflashed viper1.1 and I think Im gonna attempt a backup. If I can get a working one I'll flash this tonight and then spend days customizing it, lol. Once I get it just the way I want it, like my stock is now, it will most definitely be my daily driver. :)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
As long as I find ways optimize

and keep this phone ahead in terms of performance you cam expect updates from me, lol, with v5 you can be certain that you have a rom that keeps this phone on the edge and ahead of most new phones. You also have a lot of features from the G2, so enjoy buddy.

Yes it will, you gonna need to remove the phone and contact apks from the blend zip, I have to tell you the G2 dialer looks a lot better than ours, key wise and backgrounds are kind of more professionaly made imo.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BonezMontana:
Anybody get any of the sms themes from zvb working? I've tried to add the holo theme but it doesn't work at all.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] fiddy619:
Just flashed v5, will update the remove the phone, and contacts from blue blend, then flash and let you know...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
You might need to port them over, just grab one of the themes, use 7zip or winrar, grab one of the themes we have and vompare the xhdpi folder, you van swap the images as long as they have the same name, if not then u gonna need to rename them, after swapping the images, place the xhdpi folder back in the theme and try it.

Cool, let me know how it goes.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] I-IoLLoW:
I have no idea! Im using TWRP 2.5.0.0. My backup from 11-26 restores fine, but any backup Ive made after that, while successful, fails on restore. Data on both is split into archives and when it gets to the data portion of the restore, that's when it fails. Compression is NOT enabled. Im on stock zvc, the only difference between 11-26 and now is that I installed Xposed and some modules like gravity box. Ive reflashed TWRP and still the same thing. Any new backups fail on data. Idk y........
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
Copy everything u have in your sd ard to your computer and wipe everything including your sd, then flash the rom via adb sideload., then reboot and copy back your stuff.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] I-IoLLoW:
It's worth a shot. This isn't the right thread for this anyway, lol. But this is what I've done/noticed since my last post. Rebooted into TWRP and tried making another backup of my stock. Took 20 minutes, I timed it. Said successful, tried to restore JUST data, failed immediately(and ofcourse it wipes data first automatically so there goes Xposed again). I had put your rom on my sdcard before doing this. Did full wipe (minus data/media)after failed restore, and installed v5. Installed, booted up flawlessly. Immediately rebooted back into TWRP, did a backup of just the data from a fresh install, even though it's 1/3 the size of my stock data, still took 20+ minutes. Trying to restore that also immediately failed. So archived or not, yours or my stock, it hangs on backup and fails to restore. So I'll try your suggestion and see what happens. I restored settings to default as well, but just to make sure, what do you have checked in TWRP settings(if anything)?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
I know it can be tedious but in your case its better to just start fresh, trust me I've done it a lot of times, not in this phone particularly but if I see those type of errors I would go ahead and nuke wipe the whole thing, then sideload the rom, sideload is very easy and you will have your phone like new, lol, sort of speak, anyways keep in mind we are here to help and yes this is the right thread moreover I don't mind at all, so go ahead and let us know how it goes.:beer:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] I-IoLLoW:
Thanks man! Well I copied everything off the internal but before I nuked it, I had to grab a recovery log(which I should have done first, right?). So I start a data backup then adb pull the recovery log. I start scrolling through it and see the code going on an ape sh*t loop. What was interesting about the loop was that it took place in the /data/ubuntu/ folder. A few weeks back I had installed ubuntu touch, obviously didn't keep it because nothing works but it left behind somethings twrp really didn't like. Needless to say, I deleted the /data/ubuntu/ folder and now TWRP backs up everything just fine again! And the moral of the story kids? ALWAYS GRAB THE LOG FIRST! ::facepalm::
[Sprint LG Optimus G] mekakeisei:
sweet boot animation!!!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
Holy crap, that was a huge piece of info u left out, lol, the most important thimg is that u got it to work, be careful with the face palm, u dont want to knock yourself out, lol.

Here, you deserve it, lol.:beer:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] I-IoLLoW:
I flash a lot of things as long as I have a solid backup to go back to. But that was probably 20 flashes ago so I didn't think about it being relevant at the time. Whats funnier is that my last WORKING backup was from AFTER I installed/deleted ubuntu touch. But it sat there untouched and starting making trouble for ol' twrp yesterday, lol. And you're right, what's important is that I got it to work. :)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Nite.Achilles:
Considering the great modifications and tweaks to the stock ROM and the addition of the Viper kernel, I must say it's really epic and a real joy to have this ROM. However... I'm using a E975 int Optimus G. If only there were ROMs like this for us :good:. Hoping in the future that there will be developers like you, porting this ROM and kernel over to our community :)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] DQEight:
If I'm on a custom ROM ( carbon) and I never took the zvc update , can I flash this?

Or will I have to go back to stock, update to zvc and then proceed?

Edit: went ahead and flashed it, it randomly reboots like crazy, I've wiped data, cache and dalvik before flashing and even tried fixing permissions. Sometimes it'll reboot when i hit home button/ connect to wifi/ anything really. I really want to try this rom out but I can't if its crashing so much. Help me out here?

It also throws me an Error stating Exchange services has stopped

I can make it crash for sure the second wifi connects.

Edit 2: I wiped everything again (including system this time) and then realized I didnt have any rom left on the phone to flash. I adb sideloaded it and everything seems to be stable now. I'll report back when I've tested more(I started with this at like 12:30 am and its 5 Am now. I need sleeep :D )
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jjairal:
Just flashed version 5. Data is working so much better now. Even 4g seems more stable. I had to get my phone exchanged a while back and got a Samsung victory as a loaner. Data was great on it. Almost allways had 4g and plus you could use 3g and talk at the same time. Then i got this one back and noticed how bad the reception. But you seem to have made it much better now.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jhcomputerguy:
Having trouble downloading.. Takes forever and then just stops not even a quarter of the way through.... Looks like it might be going faster now.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] fiddy619:
Also update your twrp, I think i remember that one having some issues with some people, I personally never had any problems with it, but i do know for sure, the newest twrp is solid. Also be weary of going back and forth between aosp, and stock, as aosp will create another 0 folder on your sdcard, and if you delete it, everything gets real jacked up. Its kind of a pain, because you will have the same stuff in both folders... Oh, and also, that is where twrp will default to, and i can't figure out a way to get twrp to read from /sdcard anymore, it seems to only read from /sdcard/0 now???

Oh, and everything flashed nicely, blue blend has some nice icons, but honestly i think the only thing i really wanted out of it was the emoji icons, and the phone icons, i actually like the status bar icons from the rom...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] I-IoLLoW:
Yeah it will only read from 0 folder. If you are keeping dual(one aosp, one stock) backups then just copy your backup to the 0 folder. Usually when going from AOSP based to stock, I delete the 0 folder then reboot recovery and it shows my original backup. As for updating TWRP, most of the people Ive talked to(and its been my experience as well) say 2.5.0.0 works best for them. TWRP 2.6.x.x has had issues, I only use it when I have to(2.6.3.3 for 4.4 based roms) but immediately reflash 2.5.0.0 when going back to my backup. I never had any issues with 2.5 until 2 days ago and that was only because of what ubuntu touch left behind. Problem solved. But thank you! :D
[Sprint LG Optimus G] ThatKawaiiGuy:
Would somebody mind posting battery life with 3hrs screen time?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
Delete the systemUi.apk, the phone and contacts from the blueblend zip, or just copy the system ui from OpTiMuS, that's the one responsible for the status bar.

This is today with mid to heavy usage (installing apps from market anf watching some videos)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] ThatKawaiiGuy:
Screen time?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
This is with brightness at 71%
[Sprint LG Optimus G] ThatKawaiiGuy:
Thanks, do you know if it lasts a whole day? (maybe 12-16 hours)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] fiddy619:
OK, got it now, now one more question is why does sprints visual voice mail keep updating? It real annoying, and half the time it fails connection, so you have to keep trying until it finally updates... Is there really an update for that stupid app like twice a day? I use google voice btw, not sprint integrated, so it keeps my google voice number as is...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
it really has to do with how much usage you give it, mine last 19 to 22 hours with mid usage, heavy usage is between 10 and 16 hours, so there are lots of variables to consider when talking battery however I implemented some code to help and make sure the phone last as much as possible with a single charge.

Make sure u have a good connection, go to voicemail settings and update the ***** out of it, lol, it needs to update and in your case is not completing tje process, if issue continues with good connection, then reboot and try it again, you should be ok.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] ThatKawaiiGuy:
Alright, Thanks, will download today, battery is a big factor for me.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] fiddy619:
OK, wtf, this freakin volume thing is back again, and the only thing i have restored was candy crush, and f-droid, neither with data, just the app...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
You know what, it has to be an issue with restoring data, you gonna have to troubleshoot the issue, wipe the crap out of your phone, including system and data, then flash the rom, you can find which of the app data is causing the issue by restoring one app at a time.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
I can tell u that with low to mid use, it will last 20 to 26 and even 30 hours in my case.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] fiddy619:
Its something with gravity box! I unchecked it in xposed, and no more problem, the only settings that i have set in there are status bar transperancy, center clock, and the circle battery with text option. After unchecking the module, and rebooting volume issue gone, what the hell???

Oh, i also had the power menu settings set as well...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
You said it happened after restoring data from couple of apps???

I have those settings too, except for tje battery text, and mine is working good, no issues whatsoever.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] fiddy619:
No, i said i NOTICED it after restoring a couple of apps without restoring data, that's why i thought it was the apps, but i guess it seems to be somehow related to xposed (probably just with my phone...), which really sucks for me, cuz i like those features...

I know that is the problem, as i can consistently reproduce the issue by checking and unchecking gravity box in modules...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BonezMontana:
I'm gonna try it today. If I get it working I'll throw up some links for you to add to the 2nd post if you want. I may even try to create something myself as well, hopefully I don't bork anything lol.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
The good thing is that now u know where the problem lies, so you can make the proper adjustments.

Cool, let me know if u need any assistance.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Jamesredmond82:
hey whatever happen to the G2 gallery that we had when you first started trying to make this ROM more like the G2
[Sprint LG Optimus G] _dannyboy:
Samsung and LG somehow got colored emojis on the S4 & G2 without them being on kitkat, any chance of us being able to make that work for us?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
The g2 gallery is there, I did not removed it.

Emojis are in couple of places, in framework and in the messaging app, the ones the system uses is the one in messaging app, grab winrar or 7zip and take the xhdpi folder located in the res folder in the app, copy the folder somewhere in your desktop, find the emojis u want and replace the ones in the xhdpi folder, then copy the folder back to the messaging app, copy the app to your system/app folder and reboot. If u only wanna change the images in any of the apps, those are the step to do it, of course u need to make sure the emojis names are the same so u can replace the ones we have, take a look at the ones I have in blueblend, the only time u need to decompile apps is when you gonna make xmls, smali, .9 images, you can copy .9 images with the method above, but u can't edit them without recompiling the apps, so go and create something for me to post in second post:D:beer:

Edit: also make sure of the sizes of the images, try to keep them close to whats in the xhdpi folder.

Edit 2: btw, that method can be use in any app in android, for status bar, etc.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Evolutionmods:
i can do it in the kernel, just have to remember where its located.

i can bump the gain +1 it will control the over all volume across the board.

im also building a new kernel. this rom is so fast , im way underclocked and its still fast. get ready to only charge your phone once a year lol

I am also makignt he clock tables alot closer together in frequency, that way the hand off between mhz has gapps that i feel need to be closed up

for instance instead of the clock going from

1458000 to 1512000 we can have an intermediate like 1489000 in between.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
Looking forward to that.

Edit: I think that the implementations on the v1.27 which was the last one you made were great, that has been the best imo for this phone, so maybe u can look at that and take it from there.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigjoexxl:
I decided to go ahead and do a complete wipe on 5.0 and afterwards I've noticed my reception has been pretty bad. Just wondering if anyone else is having this issue?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigjoexxl:
Not sure why my picture didn't show up here it is again
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
Try updating profile and prl.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigjoexxl:
I probably should have mentioned that I tried that already.

Which apps are compatible with Qsilde?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] tlxxxsracer:
For some reason my CPU clock settings aren't sticking. I try 192mhz and 1.3ghz but it defaults to 386mhz and 1.7ghz after some time.

Any ways to fix this? Using Android tuner
[Sprint LG Optimus G] I-IoLLoW:
Im not 100% sure this is the right answer but while running Viper1.1 on stock I had the same issue. I fixed it by using Trickster Mods Frequency Lock.

[MENTION=3441378]Lrod0175[/MENTION] Dude, v5.0 has been buttery smooth. My battery life has been good so far as well, 23 hours total with 10 hours screen on time before I needed a recharge! Not bad at all. However I noticed that the double tap to wake screen option doesn't work. Im sorry if I missed the info somewhere, but is the pop up advertising that just part of something else? Or do I have to enable it somehow? That's the ONLY thing I've noticed that doesn't work. Everything else is 100% rock solid.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] askmeonemore:
I don't believe knock on has ever worked on this. Might be g2 exclusive
[Sprint LG Optimus G] I-IoLLoW:
That's what I thought but wasn't sure. I thought it was something that had to be built into the kernel.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] goast:
The tap to wake part yes.. The tap to close not sure
[Sprint LG Optimus G] liquidninja:
Is anyone having issues with the launcher icons being too big? Ever since 4.9 the launcher icons only show the "large" state, and clicking "Show large/small icons" doesn't do anything. Is there a way to change the icon size via a config file?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] DQEight:
For me, Videos and Memo work as pop ups.

Browser and Calculator only open normally in full screen app mode and Calendar causes the systemUI to crash
[Sprint LG Optimus G] ThatKawaiiGuy:
Tap to wake isn't working for me. Is it supposed to?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] DQEight:
I don't think thats in this rom as thats a kernel feature and i dont think this kernel has it.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Lrod0175:
What file manager are u using? Anyways, download Joda+, copy the file to the sd card, open it with joda+ and do the changes, then copy it back to the system/etc folder, reboot. For some reason es file explorer is having issues with this type of files.

Play Music is it still broke

Would anyone like to comment about if play music is working on stockish roms yet I really want to use a stock rom.
