Just Curios

Is it safe to dirt flash pa aosp over houstonn's last aosp?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] hv6478:
I would a say it's"safe" but wouldn't recommend it.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] davevinci:
Hey guys just wondering if we can use the new mako Kitkat 4.4 bootloader to our OG?

Edit: houstonn has the new 4.4 BL for our device
[AT&T LG Optimus G] IrocD:
Anyone else have an issue where right after a reboot, if you don't immediately unlock the phone and instead you let the screen shut off, when you do wake the phone up and try to unlock it for the first time, the screen is completely unresponsive. I have to then hard power-down and back up and then unlock right away. Weird, right?

I'm also having intermittent facelock issues... anyone else?

Other than these little twinges, I'm trying this as my daily driver. I like the look and feel ALOT!
[AT&T LG Optimus G] xboxfanj:
Usually mako boot loaders work. What's new in kitkat bl,?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] ronasimi:
Well, I'm not trying it first :)
[AT&T LG Optimus G] houstonn:
no idea but since my lgog is cracked i haven't had it out in awhile.. i took it out to take a pic.. you guys can notice the hairline crack that makes my screen non responsive. :(
[AT&T LG Optimus G] ronasimi:
So it boots fine with the new mako bootloader?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] br0adband:
Sorry to hear it, but the OP was pretty clear:

Hopefully you'll get it up and running again, maybe a stock flash with LGNPST to save the day...?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] davevinci:
yes fastboot vol up+ power then flash zip
[AT&T LG Optimus G] steffenbakke:
Flashed the ROM, kernel and last the pa_gapps when I booted it couldn't find network. Then I found out it couldn't even detect the sim card.... And it takes so long to boot. Anyone able to help with the sim card thing? Working on all other ROMS than this. I'm on e975
[AT&T LG Optimus G] br0adband:
This is a pure AOSP build, it doesn't have anything you're probably used to having with a customized and heavily tweaked ROM so, you're stuck with what it has. ;)

This is what Android really is, plain and simple. All the other things most people are so used to having just don't exist on the AOSP builds.

If you can't see the microSD card (extSD) then yet once again, you've got some other issues. A clean flash of the V3 build - and I mean clean flash, not dirty, that means a full wipe before it's installed, and then even wipe the cache and Dalvik prior to actually rebooting and after you install it - should work out your issues.

I say that because I had the same problems earlier even when I did what I thought was a clean flash of V3+pa_gapps, it just didn't work right so I flashed it again, then again, then realized I kept forgetting to wipe everything clean before and then the cache/Dalvik after.

Once I did that (and yes it's a ***** but, this is all experimental stuff anyway at this point) I got everything working with a single flash straight through.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] CrawnberyJack:
I entered cwn recovery by mistake... now i can't acces again.

i came from stock 4.1 . this is the first flash. (i like 4.4 ui) .

i wiped data/cache/dalvik before-after flash.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] br0adband:
Duh... my mistake, guess with that specific kernel for the E975 it will work, go figure. Edited this post to get rid of my idiotic points. ;)
[AT&T LG Optimus G] davevinci:
In the 2nd post it is stated also for e975.....

---------- Post added at 06:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:04 PM ----------

First boot is really long... no prob.. we have same issue with network :/
[AT&T LG Optimus G] steffenbakke:
;) U might need to read the full post not only OP;). Anyways.... This network thing is damn annoying as I can't even get on wi-fi as I got the wi-fi pass on Google Drive... and no network... And not sure I'll be able to live without sms
[AT&T LG Optimus G] davevinci:
Have u tried restoring efs partition?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] br0adband:
Start over, flash it again, clean everything (do a fastboot -w too) and then install the ROM and the pa_gapps (and the E975 kernel if necessary) and see what happens.

Can't hurt, right?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] CrawnberyJack:
hmm.. i still need nfc fix . can you help me with that? the network works fine.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] cjayceguerra:
me too, no network but it detected and installed my network's apns (weird)in settings>about, my baseband is "unknown".

here is what i have done,

full wipe

flashed rom

flashed gapps

flashed E975 kernel

flashed my baseband

still no network
[AT&T LG Optimus G] steffenbakke:
Fastboot -w Gotta look up what that is first...
[AT&T LG Optimus G] br0adband:
It clears out userdata and cache totally, it may not be required but again, it can't hurt and for myself personally it seems to help get things working especially if you're flashing stuff pretty frequently.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] CrawnberyJack:
wi-fi doesn't work. it's connecting to network... but it hangs in google play.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] br0adband:
Are you gonna do a clean flash and see if it helps at all or just keep pointing out all the little problems that you yourself seem to be having? :D
[AT&T LG Optimus G] forgettolive:
Hi houston,

can you help me fix wifi hotspot on 4.1.2 rom ?

or i will be sned attach file to you for fix my problem on dnt012 rom

i can not do that
[AT&T LG Optimus G] steffenbakke:
Just done the clean flash.... Still doesn't find the sim card
[AT&T LG Optimus G] davevinci:
CAMERA

Camera for e975 using the kernel in 2nd post still 8MP
[AT&T LG Optimus G] steffenbakke:
Camra doesn't work at all for me its all dark on my e975
[AT&T LG Optimus G] houstonn:
i wouldn't post that if it didnt :P geeb-kk-4.4-bootloader_only (flash at your own risk) *warned*
[AT&T LG Optimus G] davevinci:
Just flashed this and it works for me. Thanks a lot houstonn! :)
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Sorin90:
Is there any advantage in using it ?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] davevinci:
Well, if u still use the bootlader which came from freegee then yes. It has visible fastboot menu and has resolved the abnormal boot behavior like when ur phone is drained to 0% and u get only a black screen when charging
[AT&T LG Optimus G] fbfortes:
I had the same problem. I solved this problem when I disabled some options in the app trickster MOD. If I'm not mistaken was dynamic FSYNC or Double tap 2 wake.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Sorin90:
Could work on e975 :) ?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] fbfortes:
Work on e977?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] davevinci:
Should work
[AT&T LG Optimus G] IrocD:
I hope it's not the double tap lol I kinda like that feature. But I am trying that right now. Thanks for your input, I hope it works!
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Maverick923:
I just flashed the bootloader to my phone, and it works for me as well. Thank you houstonn!

Its nice to see what I am doing.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] geokilla:
I assume it works with Android 4.3 ROMs? Also... Can you check my PMs please?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dbgeek:
Flashed this ROM a couple hours ago. Everything works great, with the exception of USB connection. Search only returns 1 comment that includes "USB" so I'm assuming that I may be the only person who's have the problem. I have USB debugging turned on. When I connect to my laptop via the USB cable, the laptop doesn't detect the device. I'm using the same cable that I've been using for a year or so (the same one that I used to move the ROM to the device). I've tried different USB ports and I've rebooted my phone, but so far, the laptop doesn't detect the device.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Jakeroxs:
Mine has been doing it too, it's something wrong with the E970.

Sent from my 4.4 KitKat Optimus G
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Sub-Negro:
Thanks but I do have to root it right?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] PATRICKismyHERO:
So I accidentally switched my data mode to 3G. There's no 4G option to select other than 2G. What happens now? Am I stuck with 3G? Also, I installed Supersu and am trying to update binaries but it won't reboot my device. Any feedback is appreciated.

Edit: Darn, I don't know what I did guys. Supersu is now saying I have no binaries installed and it cannot install em.

- I wiped, installed the v3 Rom along with the gapps.

- start up my phone smoothly, but I forget to flash supersu. So I download off google play thereafter, which reported earlier, couldn't reboot into recovery. I end up going into recovery and flashing supersu itself.

- now it says I have no binaries installed.

- I was scared, considered just flashing back to 4.3 to reset but I don't want to experiment just yet.

[MENTION=4852479]houstonn[/MENTION] :

New bootloader works fine on e975. nice to have a "visible" fastboot again. Feels even more like nexus with Google Logo instead of LGs.

[MENTION=222469]Patrick[/MENTION] :

Use *#*#4636#*#* to reenable LTE.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dbgeek:
Problem solved: went to the LG site and installed the LG drivers on my laptop (I believe that prior to this, they were using the drivers that were on the phone, but that may not be exactly correct). Now everything works as expected.

Here's the link. You can find the installation file under the "Downloads" section under "Software Updates".

http://www.lg.com/us/support/software-manuals
[AT&T LG Optimus G] PATRICKismyHERO:
It says I need to reroot after installing 4.4. I can still go into recovery mode. What to do?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Pony Express:
You should be able to download the su 1.65 zip to your phone and flash in recovery. :)
[AT&T LG Optimus G] PATRICKismyHERO:
Thanks for replying! But unfortunately I have already done that. It says that Supersu is unable to install.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] el_venga:
Download a newer or older version than 1.65. You need to flash it through recovery just like a Rom.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] ¶ha€dru$:
awesome build..so slick. thought I'd go back to rootbox 7.22 build but this is pretty fine!

---------- Post added at 10:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:14 PM ----------

can't wait to see halo and rootbox, etc to be worked into this mix!
[AT&T LG Optimus G] PATRICKismyHERO:
I tried to install su 1.69 but still failed. Says that I need to reroot.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] OMGMatrix:
You flash in recovery.

If you're doing anything within android in regards to root, you're doing it wrong here.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] PATRICKismyHERO:
I've already flashed through recovery. I've been doing that this whole time. But upon launching su it just says that I need to reroot.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] OMGMatrix:
Ignore that.

Are you actually not getting root? Like, open an app like titanium backup or trickster mod that checks for root on start, and see whether or not you get a root prompt.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] PATRICKismyHERO:
That's exactly right. I'm not getting that at all. Titanium won't work. And Supersu won't and is unable to install binaries in general.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] davevinci:
Use philz cwm recovery
[AT&T LG Optimus G] PATRICKismyHERO:
Funny that you mention. I tried to update my cwm to that one, but during the process it aborted. Not even kidding. I have no idea what to do from here..
[AT&T LG Optimus G] stric85:
Did you use the NoStatus7.zip on the third post?

That one worked for me...

Edit:I'm using AT&T E970, I'm new to this so don't know if that even matters.. Hope it helps
[AT&T LG Optimus G] PATRICKismyHERO:
I am so sad..

I did what you suggested and downloaded the Nostatus7.zip so that I can update cwm because the thread said that sk8's cwm wouldn't flash supersu properly. However, after downloading it and attempting to enter recovery mode, I no longer can. Which is the weirdest thing because before I downloaded the zip, my phone was working perfectly fine and I was able to enter recovery mode. Now I can't. My phone won't even start up to my homescreen, but the backlight still comes on.

Now my situation has escalated from minor errors to MAJOR HELP needed. :(
[AT&T LG Optimus G] davevinci:
Well if u can accesa fastboot u can still a working recovery
[AT&T LG Optimus G] PATRICKismyHERO:
I've tried and tried to enter fastboot, but all I get is a backlight. I honestly don't know how downloading a zip file did this to my phone. I'm 100% sure I did nothing in between to cause it.

EDIT: Just discovered I can still enter Download Mode. Hopefully that's my last chance at something. Please help if you can.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] shane9b3:
Here's what I have done when my does that (2 times now, both right after I flashed the ROM)

Enter download mode (vol+, vol-, plug into computer)

Let sit 5 min.

Unplug USB

Hold the power button for 15 sec (this will power off the phone)

Turn phone back on

After the LG logo when the screen goes black and all that is on is the back light plug the USB back into the phone (make sure its still plugged into the computer) and it should boot normally

After it boots you should be good to go.

As I said this has happened to me two times, both times it happened it was after flashing the ROM and about the second boot. This is the only way that I figured out to get it to boot, so I hope it works for you too.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] davevinci:
What model do u have? If u can go to download mode definitely all hope is not lost.. You can just LGNPST or KDZ back to stock
[AT&T LG Optimus G] PATRICKismyHERO:
That worked! You're a lifesaver. Thanks! I'm going to flash the nostatus7.zip now so I can update my cwm, then flash supersu 1.69 and update my binaries, hopefully nothing goes wrong. Will report back.

Also, I have the E970 version.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] zajfman:
I flashed the bootloader, but I'm not really sure what its suppose to do. What is a visible fastboot?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] PATRICKismyHERO:
Everything works great now! Thanks to those who helped me.

So, to mention my problem in case it'll help anyone else in the future. If you flashed this rom (I flashed with Sk8's CWM which might be the problem) and it reports that you have no binaries installed OR you're unable to install/update Supersu binaries, do the following:

- Make sure you flash Supersu using PhilZ Touch CWM ahead of time (if you have this before flashing the rom, everything should go smoothly, if not, you can always flash the CWM after, no worries).

- IF, flashing the CWM aborts (which it did for me), browse down to the third post of the page to install the Nostatus7.zip which is the same file but repaired to install correctly.

- After it is installed, go into your new recovery and flash Supersu (I flashed Supersu 1.69).

- Everything should be working now.

I have the E970 model. In case it helps.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dbgeek:
in fastboot, press vol up and down, to see "START" change to different selections (2 down is RECOVERY). That display is missing in the BL that you got with FreeGee.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] zajfman:
Aahh, I get it. Thanks :)
[AT&T LG Optimus G] shane9b3:
Glad it worked for you. Not sure why it does it, I thought I was the only one it happened to because no one else has mentioned it.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] el_venga:
every time i boot to TWRP and do a reboot it asks me to fix root. i always say no because AFAIK root is working perfect for me.

if it aint broke, dont fix it. ;)
[AT&T LG Optimus G] aznracer62:
Good choice. I did the fix a while back and it ended up with a bootloop. So to anyone reading this, if it asks you to fix root in twrp, don't do it if root already works for you.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] PATRICKismyHERO:
Everything is running fine now. The only thing that isn't working for me is GPS. Is it just my flash or is it apparent in the Rom?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] cyberbandit1998:

There is a fix in this same thread. Look from the beginning.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Hentitan:
would it work for Korean versions?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] PATRICKismyHERO:
I scoured through the first 20 pages and though there are mentions of the GPS not working, there isn't really a fix. It works for some and it doesn't work for others. I'll probably have to re-flash it.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] zajfman:
Try opening Google Maps and turning on wifi, when it askes you to. That worked for me. If I refused to turn wifi on, the gps didnt work.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] sysbus6:
Search the thread for networklocations.apk. I installed it, and my gps started working superfast! I think it was in the early part of the thread.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] el_venga:
In my case It did not work right away, not even after reboot. After a while I rebooted again and it worked.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] hv6478:
And the "right way" to do it is to put NetworkLocation.apk in the /system/app folder in the root of your phone, then restart. Done.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] el_venga:
that what i was refering to. it did not work right away.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] zajfman:
Didn't work for me either. But I think flashing Banks gapps makes a difference.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] hv6478:
Yeah the reboot IS necessary. I believe the OS has to run it upon boot for it to actually be run as a system app... Maybe that's inaccurate but it's a guess.

In any case you should be good after that and rebooting.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] theytalkalot:
Don't you also have to set the permissions too?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] el_venga:
i did fix permissions manually and through twrp. it started worked after a while, dont worry guys. it might have been a satellites issue or something. i just mentioned it just in case someone else gets the same. just be patient.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] steffenbakke:
Does the pa build have transparent statusbar on lockscreen or do you need to use an different framework?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] hv6478:
PA build does not need mods for the transparency nor the location. Or it shouldn't lol.

My camera still doesnt work, even on latest build. It simply wont focus. Tried the script, but that only work half the time..

Isnt there a way to fix this - on E795? A bootable flash or something else ... its currently the only thing missing from this ROM (imo)
[AT&T LG Optimus G] steffenbakke:
Well have you tried to put it in as am exit task in tasker? I mean the script? Works perfectly for me (only for the camera app tho, not working in snapchat )
[AT&T LG Optimus G] NickereN2O:

Also, I tried turning on wifi tethering and it started turning off and on really quickly and throwing errors. Had to reboot my phone after that. All on latest PA gapps/PA build.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] el_venga:
I have used WiFi tethering with no problem but I have aosp. The PA build, according to other users, is almost like aosp. It should work I suppose.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] marcin252:
I think cyanogen mod 11, with kitkat 4.4 unofficial its better than this rom.
