im confused! why is the roaming bug such a big issue? if you'll look, you're not actually roaming when it says you are. it's just a graphical error. I still have lte speeds whenever the "R" has popped up. never not been able to place a call either. just accept the fact that you get a roaming icon and that it says "preferred system" and not Verizon wireless.
[Verizon LG G2] minnysota:
Just my two cents on the "preferred system" issue:

I changed my network from Global to LTE then rebooted and it switched back to Verizon Wireless. Not sure if it's that simple for others who are getting the roaming bug as I'm on M4 and haven't seen it. But that was my quick fix—and I have seen others with the same result.

Otherwise M4 has been rock solid for me. Battery life is outstanding, GPS is great, Wi-Fi and data connectivity are fine. The only SOD issues I had came after installing AcDisplay, so I clean flashed M4 without installing it and haven't had one since.

Also, [MENTION=1182745]julesism[/MENTION] pointed me to this thread, which fixes the speaker distortion at high volumes (M4 does not have this commit):

[Verizon LG G2] auslander2012:
Yeah, why bother reporting bugs at all! Great plan.
[Verizon LG G2] deusingmono:
The bug does not produce a roaming icon. It gives a notification that you are roaming, and your signal bars go totally empty. It usually kills whatever apps are open or causes them to behave goofy. For me, once that happens I am unable to obtain any kind of data connection at all without toggling airplane mode.

thanks! I've only ever gotten a roaming notification and the roaming signal icon. ive never lost data for more than a few seconds while it was searching for a signal.
[Verizon LG G2] zandroid:
You can change the long press with a new launcher like Apex. As far as navbar changes, I don't recall CM ever implementing those. Basically, CM lets you choose the buttons and layout. I believe the setting to allow different navbar sizes and long press features came from AOKP and incorporated by other AOSP ROMs like Vanir and Carbon.

BLUF, you will not see a mod like we have for the stock based ROMs to change the appearance of the navbar. You will need to switch ROMs to get that feature on AOSP. Unless CM incorporates it.
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
You could do it manually if you're familiar with decompiling and compiling apks (this is what I have done for myself), or you could probably find an Xposed mod somewhere that can give you the same ability.
[Verizon LG G2] dalingrin:
You can't currently but it will likely change soon as well as support for knock off. That said, I've never had it turn on in my pocket. It does sometimes turn on when I pull it out though.
[Verizon LG G2] bose301s:
Think I found a bug, when on a call and you bring up the dialpad even though you dial it doesn't send a tone, was ona call and asked to press numbers and no matter how many times or how many numbers I pressed nothing happened. I confirmed nothing happens by leaving myselfa voicemail and pressing all buttons repeatedly only to have silence on the message. Can anyone replicate this?
[Verizon LG G2] polaric:
I cant reproduce this myself. Try wiping and reflashing.

---------- Post added at 03:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:23 PM ----------

@dalingrin this is just my two cents, but, it might be a good idea to have a "Current Bugs" section of the OP. A place to list off all the current bugs in the last nightly, so users can see the current bugs. I know for me personally, one of the first things I look at before I decide if Im going to flash the recent nightly is what the current bugs are. I realize it would take alot of work, as you would want to make sure the bugs are reproducable before they are declared as actual bugs, but I'm sure some of the people who frequent this thread would be willing to help, I know I would. We could have a user(s) make a list of all the bugs each day and just PM them too you, and all would need to be done is a copy/paste. If a few users compiled a list of confirmed, reproducable bugs each day, it would be a great information tool.
[Verizon LG G2] dalingrin:
I have been trying to list the major known issues that are reproducible in the OP. Many(not all) of the issues reported here are one off issues or issues that are caused by trying to restore data from previous versions of Android.
[Verizon LG G2] polaric:
Speaking of issues, have we figured out what causes the infrequent reboots yet? I experienced one just this morning, didnt get time to grab a log yet though.
[Verizon LG G2] Dearborn1977:
Clear Hangouts app data and login again. Always does the trick for me.
[Verizon LG G2] dalingrin:
I have a hunch about the hard reboots. Logs show no error in the kernel which is odd. Currently, I think its something to do with how we were processing the "knock on" in the kernel. We've made a change that might have helped that yesterday.

Eventually, I'm going to move the knock on and knock off processing into Android where we'll have more control. For now we are relying solely on the touchscreen firmware to discern something is a knock on gesture but we need to do additional processing in Android/userspace. This will make knock on less likely to turn the device on when it shouldn't(pulling it out of your pocket) as well as allow us to implement knock off support.

This should be pretty easy, I just need to find the time.
[Verizon LG G2] polaric:
Good to know development is moving at a blazing pace. I have a hunch about the Netflix issue, its likely pertaining to the DRM, as I experienced similar issues trying to use Hulu, later today when I get home I'll try some other DRM using apps and see what turns out.
[Verizon LG G2] cheami:
Is there an issue with legacy/0/emulated folders with TWRP and 4.3 ROMS? Gallery and new 4.2 photos for me has been showing blank images in place of my photos randomly. Sometimes it shows correctly, other times its a gray image.

Doesn't seem like others are having issues so there must be a way to fix this. Which is the main folder for internal SD?

No, the images are not still loading.
[Verizon LG G2] mouf32:
I didn't have any issues with Vanir on TWRP, but before I went to CM 10.2 I restored a back up of CleanRom installed CWM Touch and then CM10.2
[Verizon LG G2] dalingrin:
FYI, your post made me decide to directly compare my fiance's G2 running clean rom and mine just to make sure I'm not going insane. I launched many apps on both phones at the same time side by side after both phones had ~24hrs of up time and repeated the tests after a reboot. Clean rom was literally always slower at launching apps than mine running CM 10.2. Scrolling was more consistently smooth on CM 10.2 as well.
[Verizon LG G2] polaric:
You defidently arent insane. I've noticed a massive preformance increase with CM. Alot less jittery, and no lag at all.

Also, [MENTION=679042]dalingrin[/MENTION], I've done abit of tests with netflix. It does seem to be a DRM issue. Netflix, Hulu, and a few other DRM apps I tried all had similar issues. Don't know how or why, but its DRM related.
[Verizon LG G2] dalingrin:
Grab some logs for Hulu and others that do not playback. DRM works insofar as DirecTV's app and Google's Widevine that's used in Google Play Videos but other DRM solutions haven't been as directly tested. Netflix gives nothing useful in the logs so hopefully Hulu or others will.
[Verizon LG G2] zathus:
This is the main reason I'm staying on stock vs aosp. I upgraded. My gnexus ran like a champ with 4.3. Really there was no reason to upgrade. I always had a way to change it and don't take many pics. Honestly, I like what LG has done. And 4.3 is just plane to me now. That said..... when 4.4 gets ported over, I'll be all over it. Why? Because it's new lol and I enjoy change.

I have ran cm on my g2 for about a day. I found no real deal breakers, I just missed some bells and whistles.

All that said, I think it's great the development that's going in to this phone and applauded everyone's hard work thus far
[Verizon LG G2] DeaconBoogie:
This.

I love the dev work being done but LG just did such a great job with stock... I like their launcher, their dialer, their music player, their SMS app, etc. Lots of little things in there that I fear I'll miss with AOSP.

What I have not liked, I've been able to change with the great work of some of the modders here.

I'll try a 4.4 ROM when it's out, though. Gotta at least give it a shot! :)
[Verizon LG G2] polaric:
[MENTION=679042]dalingrin[/MENTION] I don't know offhand how android handles DRM, but is there a proprietary DRM service that got removed from the build? This might be the issue, but its just a hunch.

Since nothing is giving any good logs, maybe its calling a service and that's what's failing. We could be looking in the wrong place for errors.

Fully wiped phone and reinstalled the newest nightly with the goo.im GAPPS for CM 10.2 and I am still having the issue with not getting key presses to make a sound during a call. This makes using the phone with an automated system that you have to press numbers to navigate almost impossible to use. I don't have to deal with these systems enough to go back to a stock ROM, but I would like to find a fix for my issue.
[Verizon LG G2] techbeck:
All the nightlies seem to have SODs for me....including the M4 release. What is odd is that I never had issues with SODs and known stable versions for me are now throwing them left and right. Clean installs...didnt matter. The only thing that cured my SODs was installing and using the Paek v6 kernel.

I went back to the M4 release because now every new nightly I try, I get an APN error and cannot download mms messages or use LTE. Tried creating a new APN and using that...didnt work. So I went back to M4.
[Verizon LG G2] El Ha$on:
Everyone is having different experiences with it. The only way to know for sure I to try it unfortunately. Im on M4 and furnace kernel 1.7.2 and i have less SODs and freeze ups in comparison to the nightlies but I still have some.
[Verizon LG G2] dragonboydbboy:
So does the preferred system bug have no side effects? I was wondering bout that...
[Verizon LG G2] auslander2012:
This is the same behavior I'm seeing. If I turn airplane mode on and then off, it'll show an LTE connection again, but if the phone goes to sleep it will go back to roaming probably 95% of the time. Unless I cycle airplane mode, I won't get any data at all (unless I have roaming data turned on).
[Verizon LG G2] Hosehead:
Anyone try wireless charging on the last few nightlies? Since it was boogered up I was afraid to try it and start all the looping and crashing...
[Verizon LG G2] joe.cole1:
I'm on the most recent nightly. Wireless charging is still fubar'd. It will actually charge, but the phone freezes up and, after removing it from charging, either takes several minutes to realize it's not charging anymore or never figures it out and requires a restart. Weird.
[Verizon LG G2] Hosehead:
Thanks. Sounds the same as it was before. Sigh.
[Verizon LG G2] beddachedda:
When did wireless charging get f'd up? I remember 1/19 was alright, but I've long since deleted that one.

Does it work on M4?
[Verizon LG G2] Bwangster12:
No, it's messed up on M4. I think M3 works and 1 or 2 nightlies after that I think are okay.
[Verizon LG G2] rmd0311:
Just a note. Clean install on the 3/19 nightly and no roaming issues and no sod's all day. To top it off avrcp is working again in my car. Hoping it sticks.

I did change the network mode from global to lte.
[Verizon LG G2] annoyingduck:
So your switching from 4g to 3g back to 4g without issue?
[Verizon LG G2] rmd0311:
Correct and I switched from Global to LTE. Usually on my commute I would get at least 3 or 4 roaming messages. None today, and instead of R's. I get good old 3G.
[Verizon LG G2] datsyuk:
Going to clean flash myself and see how I do I'll post back tonight and let you guys know how it went. Last time it took 2 hours for it to hit first time when it used to instantly do it. Lets see how this goes.

[Verizon LG G2] datsyuk:
Don't get too excited I just got it again after an hour and now it won't stop. Haha -_-. Is CM or OP aware on this issue? Normally things get squashed out pretty quickly but this is clearly a big issue and I haven't really seen of heard much from anyone on it.

Just going to chime in that I was waiting to hear good news and so flashed yesterday afternoon. No freezes, no SOD, and, while I have only noticed something like the roaming issue once or twice anyway, no roaming issue.

I haven't restored any data from backup programs or tried any workarounds since my last return to a "clean" nandroid. Not saying that's the issue but throwing it out there in case it helps troubleshoot.

[Verizon LG G2] Benny879:
Yeah I've been on 3-19 build for 24 hours with no reboots or screen freezes. Only bug I still see is Wi-Fi not refreshing after being connected to Bluetooth. Its a breath of fresh air to have a stable build I can rely on finally. I've never seen the roaming bug but I also never leave LTE.
[Verizon LG G2] Bwangster12:
But wireless charging is still messed up?
[Verizon LG G2] Benny879:
I forgot about that...I haven't tried wireless charging yet.

Edit: Its still borked
[Verizon LG G2] rmd0311:
I'm on 24 hours now. No reboots or SODs. I did restore some data for some apps. Like Nova and some other things with lots of configs, and absolutely no roaming and I was getting it at least 3 times during my commute each way.

Edit 5:07PM ---- Just got a random reboot.
[Verizon LG G2] mrgoodpaul:
So just out of curiosity hows the battery life on this. I flashed this a month ago but i had horrible battery life so i went back to stock.
[Verizon LG G2] Bwangster12:
That's so frustrating!
[Verizon LG G2] datsyuk:
Very strange you guys are going that long without getting it. I went a couple hours without getting it but once I get for the first time no matter what I do (reboots, switch LTE to Global and vice versa) it continstously keeps coming back very quickly and will not stop. I was also at my house which had pretty bad service too.
[Verizon LG G2] Benny879:
You must be roaming on another carriers tower or something.
[Verizon LG G2] datsyuk:
If that were the case I'd see on pre 3/3 builds, no? 3/1 I run and have never seen roaming on there.

Except when your phone is obviously not behaving the same as others. (Edit: not to say that your the only one reporting these issues). You sure you didn't flash a mod or restore some system data at some point? Because I've received 0 sod since yesterday at 5pm-ish.

Of course it could be a reception issue triggering a bug and not at all related to our phones/methods.

But for me 3/19 has not sucked at all. It's been almost flawless. One hang in keyboard that stopped hanging after about 10 seconds.

[Verizon LG G2] brennam7:
Clean flashed 3/19 because i was having a ton of issue on the past nightly. Everything is going fine so far. We'll see how long that lasts.
[Verizon LG G2] Bwangster12:
As breaking edge as I once thought myself to be... I'm tired of having buggy ROMs. Most of the time, ROMs for phones that are not yet up to that version of Android are going to be too buggy for me. If the G2 is on 4.2.2, then I'm just gonna use CM 10.2 Once it gets to 4.4, I'll move to the next version of CM.
[Verizon LG G2] RoboJoe:
I've been considering going back to stock. When did Android get notification access? Was that 4.4?
[Verizon LG G2] deusingmono:
New nightly looks interesting. Lots of updates to the dialer and telephony code which IMO is where the roaming bug was introduced.
[Verizon LG G2] dragonboydbboy:
On latest nightly, new dialer is awesome, and preferred system bug is gone! But roaming bug (which I'm tempted to say is more of a dropped service bug) is still present.

I live in the mountains, so have bad reception up here. I do have a range booster, but that has not helped much with the dropped service bug

http://vr-zone.com/articles/lg-g2-getting-android-4-4-2-kitkat-update-internationally/74458.html
[Verizon LG G2] Bwangster12:
So, being that the Verizon G2 has 4.2.2, there isn't a stable 4.4 ROM available. Once that happens, I'll move to CM11.
[Verizon LG G2] datsyuk:
This really isn't too ROM related but does anyone get tons of reloads on Chrome? Page loads I go to tap a link and it always jumps the text around so I always either mis tap or it just reloads the entire page. Insanely annoying lol.

I've been running 3/1 for a long time now and starting to get massive freeze ups and reboots. Verizon really better hurry up with this update or I'm not going to keep this phone much longer. I can't even blame the devs because it must be tough when the phone is stuck on 4.2, Nexus 5 videos I see look buttery smooth and honestly have not seen that on this phone.
[Verizon LG G2] dragonboydbboy:
Keep an eye on your connection level when these reloads happen. This is the roaming (aka poor service) bug.

Watch your bars, and see if it keeps losing connection, regaining, losing again, etc. This behavior is what causes multiple apps to act wonky, like chrome refreshing, Google now launcher redraws, Google keyboard issues, among others.
[Verizon LG G2] datsyuk:
Well this happens on WiFi or data and I'm running a build prior to when the roaming bug started to occur. Unfortunately for me too scrolling is not smooth on literally every other ROM except CM. Not necessarily laggy but the text gets so out of focus and chops up at times. CM is the only ROM that is smooth and in focus. Hard to explain.
[Verizon LG G2] auslander2012:
Same here
[Verizon LG G2] marleyinoc:
Got a SOD an hour ago leaving WiFi in an area that's typically crappy/missing 3g and just out of range of LTE... So mythbuster style... PLAUSIBLE. Only SOD since flashing 3/19 (flashed 3/21 tonight just before SOD).

[Verizon LG G2] marleyinoc:
I didn't have any problems locally but the phone was restarting enough I sort of rushed back to my stock(ish) nandroid last weekend. It was clearly weirded out by either the towers or weak reception. Considering I'd driven an hour or so to ingress I wasn't up for testing fixes. Retrospectively I wish I had. I could have did what I did up there even with a rebooting phone. Albeit frustratingly.

[Verizon LG G2] xI mEzMeRiZe Ix:
Anyone here use LastPass? The recent update for it allows it to recognize password fields within apps and Chrome automatically, but in order for that to work, you need to enable it within the accessibility settings. Unfortunately, whenever I do this on my Verizon G2 and Nexus 7, both running Mahdi, I get constant system UI crashes and have to disable the setting. Curious if it's an issue with Mahdi or LastPass. I'm considering switching back to CM11, as some of the theming in Mahdi makes the UI in certain apps hard to deal with, so if this issue is Mahdi-related, that's another reason to switch.

I have only used the new accessibility password fill once and it did not crash.
