I dirty flashed the latest nightlies on top of the M4 build...

Anyone having trouble opening up the Mobile Networks settings? Mine is greyed out when i go to Wireless & Networks. I also get the obligatory "Unfortunately. the process com.android.phone has stopped" when I long press the quick tile.

Any ideas?
[Verizon LG G2] viper909:
Yeah. I tried all the options, but the disconnections reset it to LTE every time.
[Verizon LG G2] polaric:
I've been dirty flashing since the first CM11 nightly, And I haven't touched my gapps since I initially flashed. I used the PA gapps. Just Google "4.4 PA gapps".

Here are some observations I've had going from 2/12 to M4. Not that they mean anything, just what I've noticed.

1. The recent apps view takes a second to pop up when your in a app, while it used to be instant. It is not slow on the homescreen, only in apps.

2. The optimization of apps after clearing cache is significantly faster now.

3. When using a pause/play button on headphones, it only receives the button press about a second after you press it. Used to be instant.

4. Battery life is significantly better.

You may be noticing the interactive governor bug that's been present in all the nightlies (and milestones) since 2/9. Try changing your governor to ondemand.
[Verizon LG G2] polaric:
I've been aware of that for awhile, Ive always used ONDEMAND to begin with, plus interactive has been broken before 2/12.

I did a clean install with M4 and all is well. I'm using the standard messaging app since hangouts is very limited.

One problem I am having is the data connection dropping entirely. I still show I'm connected to wifi but I can't do anything. When I turn wifi off I can't seem to get on with LTE either, but it shows me connected. The only way to fix this is by rebooting phone. Any ideas?

Proximity sensor freaks out, doesn't always see object and doesn't read when object moves away. This is messing with my phone calls bad.
[Verizon LG G2] xI mEzMeRiZe Ix:
On M4 and all of a sudden I can't connect to WiFi. It started out for the past few weeks or so (running M3) and I couldn't connect to my work WiFi, but now after a few days on M4, I also can't connect to my home WiFi even though everything worked fine the past few days. Anyone have a fix?

Edit: After rebooting 3 times, it has finally connected. Wtf.

[Verizon LG G2] Jimi Mack:
This seems to be a recurring issue with M4, the WiFi falling out.
[Verizon LG G2] xI mEzMeRiZe Ix:
My issue seems to be different from what other people are posting about. They seem to have issues where they're connected and the connection goes in and out, while I'm having issues connecting at all. If I go into the WiFi settings and try to connect, it immediately says failed to connect.

CM11 is a ****in disaster on the Verizon G2. From build 1 to the latest nightly. No matter what I have ever tried I've had nothing but freezes, random reboots, SODs, bluetooth issues, calling, WiFi and MMS issues...you name it. Tried the latest nightlies after M4 hoping it was better now, but within hours the phone was right back to where it always was on CM11. The worst part by far on every build I've ever been on is the freezes and random reboots, by far. The frequency they eventually get to makes the phone just down right awful and unusable. I can't tell you how many times my phone had rebooted in the middle of a call...

CM10 is terrible too but at least I can go a few hours without a random reboot.

Ugh screw you Verizon/LG for not releasing KitKat officially yet, after all these months. Things like that is part of their release of the phone and should be kept up with.
[Verizon LG G2] ddzado:
It's just not the quality the CM should be pushing out, either. I know that the nightlies are not stable... but the M releases should be. I'm not happy at all.
[Verizon LG G2] just4747:
I agree. Why is it just stable on some devices but not on this device? I know they can't test each devices version for days/weeks before releasing, but we've been having these same issues now for months on all versions. And AOKP is pretty much no different - it also suffers from random reboots and other things. There really is NO good custom AOSP-based ROM out there right now for the Verizon G2 that is stable, period.
[Verizon LG G2] datsyuk:
My experience usually isn't as bad as yours but I agree it's been pretty bad overall. There's so many issues I don't even remember having this many problems back when I had a Droid Incredible or OG Droid lol. Over the past week or two SODs have definitely slowed down for me big time though.
[Verizon LG G2] ddzado:
I've been trying to find time/get the setup to build CM on my own and fix these bugs. I'm a software engineer... I fix other people's bugs for a living. But honestly, you get home and you don't want to code anymore.

Try changing your DNS server from Google to opendns or another server through romtoolkit or another DNS app
[Verizon LG G2] rearden888:
I disagree with all the complaining about stability of the snapshot releases on this device. I've run M3 and now M4 happily since I got this phone about a month ago. No more issues on this than I've had on any other phone. Not sure what is causing all the problems for other people, but I think the M4 snapshot is solid.
[Verizon LG G2] xI mEzMeRiZe Ix:
You must be the only person in the world not experiencing freezing, reboots, and lockups. Literally every AOSP ROM does this on every G2 variant.

Or you're just in denial...

[Verizon LG G2] natemup:
Wow. This fixed my LTE dataless-ness since an early February nightly. Thanks!
[Verizon LG G2] marleyinoc:
No, I have very few issues as well. One freeze yesterday. One reboot the day before.

Someone could probably take the time to painstakingly trouble shoot and reverse engineer the kernel (and maybe sometime will love this phone enough to do that when LG really stops caring) but since a KK OTA is imminent I think it makes sense to make it as stable as possible but sort of wait it out too.

I didn't try 10.2 but would have thought that would be virtually bug free. (By my rationale here). I guess I could wipe and try it out to help you guys with tons of trouble rule out your device or some other issue.

Has anyone with so many issues flashed stock kdz and had same issues afterwards? Replaced device and had same issues?

Have you made the mistake of flashing from a nightly post 2/28 or so and then flashing the M4? I did that and there wasn't even hope of finding issues as I bootlooped myself.

As far as M4 and roaming issues, I believe there were commits for the radio after that and maybe they'll help.

Seriously there aren't that many issues. Some people....

Some people....get freezes multiple times a day and have their phone randomly reboot. **** us, right?

[Verizon LG G2] scrubasarus:
I've had freezes on M4. Not quite SOD, but the phone would be locked up long enough to upset me. Also, Whisperpush messed up messaging between another CM11 user and myself, he was running a Razr Max with Spyder 2 and we could not text back and forth until he disabled whisperpush.
[Verizon LG G2] xI mEzMeRiZe Ix:
Yea that's the main freezing I see. Sometimes it clears itself up in a few seconds. Other times it hot reboots or I have to force a full reboot.

[Verizon LG G2] RoboJoe:
I'm pretty new to the LG G2 VZW community, only having this phone for about two weeks, but it does seem far more unstable than my GS3, though I don't mind much since I chose to run nightlies.

I do have a question, though: Wireless charging seems next to useless in terms of, you know, actually charging the phone. The stock charger charges fast as all getout, and I never saw such a difference in recharge rate between a wall outlet and wireless on my GS3 (they charged about the same speed)-- it is normal for the G2, or is there something wrong?

Edit: And, it seems to happily kill background processes-- even those with a notification, like Tasker, with hundreds of MB of RAM available.
[Verizon LG G2] xI mEzMeRiZe Ix:
Wireless charging obviously makes it more difficult to use and charge your phone simultaneously, as well as charge much slower. But it does have its benefits, such as being dead simple to just drop your phone down and have it start charging, saving potential damage to your USB port, etc. Once it matures, we may not even need a port to charge through, saving a lot of potential corrosion and exposure of the internal elements of the device.

I've never used a wireless charger, but I definitely see its potential; we just have to wait for it to mature and develop, like any other new tech.
[Verizon LG G2] minnysota:
I just wanted to chime in that my experience on M4 has been next to flawless. As mentioned above, I have had one or two hiccups—like freezing for a few seconds, but not one reboot or SOD. Battery life has been fantastic. Wi-fi has worked as it should. No roaming bug. No MMS issues.

I'm not sure why other people are having this much trouble. Maybe some of us just got lucky.
[Verizon LG G2] RoboJoe:
I've got a bunch, because they worked very well with the GS3. I just don't know if the slow wireless charging rate is due to some cyanogenmod bug/side effect, or if it's due to it being an LG G2. (bigger battery, or whatever.)
[Verizon LG G2] polaric:
Android is a very diverse system. There are hundreds of variables you can't account for that could cause some people sods and some people stability. Argument is pointless, everyone has different experiences with different nightlies every time.

---------- Post added at 10:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:42 AM ----------

Both. The battery is significantly larger, and there has been a cyanogen bug for some time now that makes wireless charging next to useless.

Sent from my LG G2
[Verizon LG G2] RoboJoe:
Is the bug inherent in AOSP, or specifically CM? More directly: Is there a KK Rom for this phone that doesn't have that bug, that you know of?
[Verizon LG G2] rearden888:
The main reason I posted my mostly positive experience was just to point out that I've had. If you look back throughout this thread, you will see several other people who had had good experiences with the snapshot builds.

Gonna test the new nightly clean. Hopefully the new phone commits will fix the roaming issue...fingers crossed

[Verizon LG G2] DertyDOH:
I'm having the same experience with the M4 snapshot. I've been on it for about 24 hours with no issues at all. MMS working, wifi, everything. I was on a stock rooted rom before, clean flashed m4 plus cm11 gapps, using twrp 2.6.3.3, stock kernel
[Verizon LG G2] natemup:
My problem was that even though my phone showed me having LTE, the connection wasn't strong for some apps to even function (Twitter, US Bank, Hertz 24/7, and QuizUp, to name a few). Changing the DNS to OpenDNS via the ROM Toolbox app fixed it immediately.
[Verizon LG G2] minnysota:
I've been on M4 since Sunday night with no issues whatsoever. Also used TWRP 2.6.3.3 only I'm running PA mini gapps. Came from stock rooted as well.

Very pleased with CM11. Everything I could have asked for in a custom rom. :good:
[Verizon LG G2] julesism:
Hey minnysota, I flashed g2-cm11-distortionfix-v1.1.louder.zip.

I've been on M4 since Sunday afternoon. No SOD's or reboots. A couple minor freezes but I'll take those over SODs. Overall everything is working well. I was on CloudyFlex 1.4 for about a week but had been using gr33nd3vils CM builds for almost 2 months.

When Kit Kat officially comes out for the Verizon variant, will this ROM basically become perfect? I would imagine that using the new kernel will fix almost everything but then again I don't know much about that. What about for the variants that have already gotten official Kit Kat? Has their CM ROM seen a huge improvement?
[Verizon LG G2] jordanl17:
I use 8.8.8.8 in a lot of devices for work, etc. Any theories as to why open DNS is better? Ironically, I used openDns before I switched to Google DNS!

VS980 - CM11 a nightly
[Verizon LG G2] xI mEzMeRiZe Ix:
Stuff can be broken, but it doesn't mean CM knows about it. A lot of their commits are very general and push to a bunch of devices, breaking some while others are fine. At least they know about the MMS and APN issues, but my guess is that they only know about it because it affected so many devices.
[Verizon LG G2] Xyriin:
Yet the only item posted in the Known Issues section of the first post is: "While LG's knock on feature works, knock off does not work yet.(A simple work around is go to the settings and add a "go to sleep" quick settings tile)"

So to say that it was mentioned once and doesn't ever need to be mentioned again is a very bad attitude to have. Personally, I never had the roaming issue come up until very recently and I've run pretty much every nightly minus the stray one here or there. So please, less trolling with "lulz post x" and more focus on nailing down exactly what issues can be verified and what changes caused them. If you're successful in your attempt to get no one to post on any issue ever then development will greatly suffer. The whole point of putting out nightlies is to get a larger pool of beta testers for feedback, otherwise we'd never see anything except RCs and stable releases.
[Verizon LG G2] wooddale:
Yes maybe so but your talking stuff that is on the first page if you will of the OP back in October. I always read the first page to see if I even want to try. Maybe I spend to much time on this phone lol.

Not every AOSP ROM freezes. I ran cyanfox and paek kernel for a few months and never experience a freeze/reboot/SOD. ATM, I'm running Omnirom unofficial with stock kernel and in the past few days haven't experience anything either except for a random keyboard freeze, but it unfroze after about 10 seconds. Didn't lockup the ROM either, I was still able to use my phone during that time.
[Verizon LG G2] jnasmith:
Just flashed the 3/15 nightly over M4 and this error is back. Tried flashing the latest PA gapps after but that didn't fix anything...

Is a clean install required for versions after M4? Really hoping not...

yup had a few issues like that, good thing i always had a backup phone (e.g., LG F6) :) haven't touch my G2 until a stable release comes out -_-
[Verizon LG G2] Benny879:
Yeah if u move back to nightlie from M4 it has to be clean install. On a brighter note 3/16 has been running great for me so far.
[Verizon LG G2] datsyuk:
After m4 the dialer was changed up which is making it throw that error I think. Clean flash will get rid of it I believe. I ran clean flashes post new dialer and never got that error just the roaming issue.

Generally flashing a nightly isn't going to cause problems. Unless you're on an installation build (cm on PC -- keys are different)

But M and nightly builds need to be distinguished. Don't flash today's M if you've flashed a nightly in last 6 weeks--to be safe.

Ms are behind nightlies and flashing old code can be bad.

Not sure what is up with 4.4 ROMs and sods from hell, but damn.

Trying out the Paek v 6 kernel now and been on it for about an hour. So far, no SODs and I would of had several by not with the stock CM11 kernel. Seems to run smoother as well. If you flash paek, make sure you have the superuser file to get root back as you will lose it.

I got pro. Is it under the menu-backup data to xml? I just see messages call log and wifi acess points
[Verizon LG G2] dp917:
No, I haven't done anything with my TB settings, it just show just like the ones you mentioned. I don't know if the 'back up all system apps' makes a difference (what I use). When looking at the backup list, on the right it shows the kind of backup for each item...app have a phone, the settings you mentioned have 'xml' and application widgets (accounts, Bluetooth pairings...) have '101.' It must have something to do with '101' but I don't know what the means.
