I would have done the same thing till now but unfortunately there is No AOSP/CM based Rom that have Quick Window case support and this is the main problem for me! Maybe if someone knowledgeable enough can add this functionality then it be another story!

Until then I'm using the Vodafone 32GB KitKat ROM...
[G2 General] tjahbagus:
I have flashed almost all 4.4.2 rom but after all I flashed back into 4.2.2 stock ?
[G2 General] Norside:
That is what have stopped me so far with the flashing fun/hassle, the stock rom have fitted my needs pretty good so far, so I have just not felt the need for experimenting with different roms like I did back in galaxy s2 days lol
[G2 General] andriodee:
Once the Sprint G2 receives the KitKat update, my flashing days will be over if the battery life compares to CM 11. Does anyone have the LG G2 KitKat Emoji files? I'd like to use them on my current KitKat ROM. The 4.2.2 Emoji files convert to black and white on KitKat, so I can't use those.
[G2 General] SuperSport:
I thought they were built into the Google Keyboard from the Play Store. ?? At least that's what I thought... Maybe check there.
[G2 General] andriodee:
Lol. They're not built into they keyboard; they're just accessible through the keyboard. I don't want to use Google's Emoji, though, because they look mutated. I want to use LG's.
[G2 General] SuperSport:
My mistake, I thought they installed with the Google Keyboard on a ROM I was messing with.

I've got these files with emoji in their name. Are these what you need? They are from the Stock ATT KK 4.4.2 Firmware D80020c.

omg!! does this work 4.4.2 stock KK?? :victory::victory:
[G2 General] garyd9:
I'm not sure why I'm answering this, as I know already that the same question is going to get asked 402394 times in 290452934 threads (because people seem to be unable to read.)

The answer is that it works the same as twrp 2.6.3.x: For the LG G2, it won't work with the bootloader that comes with kitkat. There are multiple threads dealing with what that means, so I won't spend yet another hour detailing it again. Please search.
[G2 General] mlcgruhlke:
This is EXACTLY why I returned to a rooted JB on my LG G2. On JB, I rooted my phone and froze and/or uninstalled all the bloat. My phone is normally 650-750 RAM no matter what I do. On rooted stock Kit Kat, 1GB all the time and unable to uninstall/freeze some bloatware. While menus were a bit faster than on JB, I did not see a noticeable speed difference between it and JB, and I grew tired of the bloat from LG and T-Mobile. When I tried to uninstall/freeze/etc some bloatware it affected the security profile for the phone and it wouldn't boot, with the phrase "security error" on the LG screen. Not sure which ones cause this issue unless I do a trial and error and frankly, what for...if they cause the issue and the rom won't run without them, what's the point? I refuse to run the LG version of Kit Kat until we find out more about the rom and built in apps. Besides, I've seen in this area as well as others that LG did not include the ability to run ART on the G2 so there really isn't any advantage to running Kit Kat in the first place. In the meantime, if you want lean and mean Kit Kat, use CM11 - you can enable ART and my RAM usage was about the same as when I run JB; without ANY carrier or LG bloatware and Carrier IQ as well. LG's Kit Kat sucks. Of course, this is just my opinion as a G2 user.
[G2 General] albsat:
Free running Ram indicator is not relevant in Android. This is not windows system. Apps are adapted to the physical ram and this phone has plenty.
[G2 General] android404:
Free ram is useles. Free ram is useless. Free ram is useless.

Apps that, when uninstalled, make the phone unbootable, probably arent bloatware. And free ram is useless.
[G2 General] mlcgruhlke:
The bloat I'm referring to is: LG Intelligent Agent, LG Smartcard Service, etc and the list of bloatware contained in JB in other posts that is easily frozen and/or uninstalled. Kit Kat does NOT allow you the freedom that JB does and I disagree about the RAM. This OS was supposed to be leaner so that devices running 512 KB could run the operating system...well, if it takes 1 GB to run on most phones, who was kidding who? Besides that, iOS and Windows devices only require 1GB of ram for their devices and apps run just as smooth or smoother on them...I know, I use them. This discussion goes back to the origination of Android, iOS and Windows Mobile systems...Android is Java based and app dependent for most uses while the other two are machine code and system dependent. While one could argue that one is better than the other, in the end iOS and Windows phones don't NEED the ram that current Android phones are using no matter how many apps are installed. These phones are more efficient than Android BUT they have their limitations in customization/etc. My first Android was the MyTouch 3G Slide and have used many since then. I have owned iPhones and still use Windows phones. For ease of use, speed and reliability iOS and Windows come out front of Android but hey, I have a G2 so it's not all that bad. I just wish Google would "force" manufacturers to install clean roms on their phones Instead of filling them up with useless, senseless bloatware, bloatware and more bloatware. An operating system that relies on more RAM for it's apps to operate efficiently, to me, is a misnomer and in the end, in my opinion, isn't really efficient. Of course, this is just a matter of opinion after all.
[G2 General] abdel12345:
Kitkat runs better than ginger bread on my brothers galaxy s1. It runs great on low memory phones but when there's more ram available it uses it so more apps can stay opem and and make multi tasking better I think
[G2 General] mlcgruhlke:
Good point...however, the LG rom is over 1.5gb and in comprison - CM11 is 241mb and the Nexus 5 is 340-400mb depending upon which version you are running. I used to own the Nexus 5 but sold it because I was experiencing terrible battery life no matter what I tried and bought the G2 (Google Play Services culprit maybe). Both CM11 and Nexus 5 use about 500mb or so RAM on a consistent basis even with tons of apps installed. The G2 runs at or over 1gb of RAM all the time even with the same apps installed....bloatware. My G2 now with CM11 is much smoother than the stock 4.2 and even the 4.4 rom. Google has improved the Android experience with Kit Kat but the manufacturers aren't installing the stock rom - that is the problem not to mention that CM11 and the Nexus roms allow you to enable ART and as far as I can find out, the manufacturer's did not include ART in their version of Kit Kat.
[G2 General] farhanito:
That's because we have 2Gb of RAM.

wife's phones got 1Gb and it struggles. Home redraws, apps restarting, etc. So with my OG nexus 7.

I'd say... Free ram is 'not used' instead of 'useless'

[G2 General] Koopa777:
I don't understand how people are still arguing over RAM usage.....Android handles the usage of RAM the EXACT same way that the Windows kernel does, Linux, etc. You open a program, it gets stored to RAM. It stays in RAM for quicker access. When you "exit" the program(swipe away on Android, or hitting the x button on WIndows, Linux, etc.) it gets completely flushed from memory. There's no "free RAM is useless" crap. The only difference is that the NT kernel and Linux utilize a swap file partition when out of RAM, before running out of RAM and crashing. Android dynamically flushes apps from memory, instead of crashing. How Android handles RAM isn't good, it's a piss-poor OS design that is an unfortunate result of having such a pitifully small amount of RAM in phones/tablets, compared to actual computers where 8GB and 16GB is the new norm. The way Android handles RAM drains battery and consumes unnecessary power, with the excessive amounts of load and store instructions being performed on the memory datapath.

But yeah, free RAM is far from useless...That's like saying that I should quickly fill all 8GB on my computer, because god forbid my memory controller isn't getting utilized enough... :rolleyes:

Just installed the german vodafone 16gb official kitkat rom and works great, but when i run the antutu benchmark i get a score of around 20000-21000 but on the older version i got 32000-33000.. why?

No means to uppset anyone: ) i now benchmark scores are more useful to developers, thats why i asked here at the forum cause here are propably smarter persons than i am: D just qurious if i flashed it right or is it just because of kitkat. . I was on a europe open official before

[G2 General] TheHaso:
A lot of people discuss ram, camera, battery etc in the 4.4.2

But nobody asks (as I have seen),

How is the music player in 4.4.2?

Is the equalizer improved?

Better support for 3rd party with built-in dps?

The stock equalizer sucks petty much and there's playback issues with 3rd party with built-in dps, as I have experienced.

(Ps, don't come with the V4A, it don't work very well with LG music player and drains the sh*t out of the battery)

[G2 General] TheHaso:

[G2 General] dadme:
It's real. I downgraded to 4.2.2 because it's incredible loud noise on left headphone. No noise over Bluetooth. On international 802 of course. So, if you want music, stay with 4.2.2.
[G2 General] mannequin:
indeed. people who don't report this issue just don't use headphones.

[G2 General] ericdabbs:
After seeing this article, would you guys still want Android 4.4 update so soon? To me I want Google to fix these 6 issues even though they seem to pertain to the Nexus devices but that is probably because phones like the G2, GS4, HTC One are not rocking 4.4 yet so they might have similar issues that I don't want to see happen on the G2. I want Google to fix these issues and for LG to sync to the latest baseline whether that will be 4.4.1 and then make sure things are working before releasing an update.

I don't know the infatuation with wanting the latest and greatest Android update given that carrier branded phones don't get updated like Nexus devices. I mean seriously how many people hear would actually prefer they got Android 4.2 instead of 4.2.2? Android 4.2.2 was a significant upgrade over previous versions even though its still Android 4.2

[G2 General] ozzyager:
I understand where you are coming from - but on the flip side, if you are waiting for a bug-free build, then you may never get an update to any version of android - or any OS. In a perfect world we would see each iteration of the updates on our UI skinned devices in a timely fashion. I think we all understand that these things take time to test, but we still want them as fast as possible.
[G2 General] compumasta:
I have not experienced any bugs, although there have been a couple of reports about the auto dimming not being able to be turned off. That does not plague my device. I honestly do not know what bugs the person was referring to. I have yet to see any with my T-Mobile G2. Maybe a version specific bug?
[G2 General] ericdabbs:
I didn't say for them to take forever but the build is just barely 1 month old. I am hoping Google patches these issue with a 4.4.1 update along with some extra goodies and use that as the baseline for the 4.4 LG stock ROM.

I would be pissed if there were issues in the 4.4 baseline which for all we know could also affect the G2 or any Android phone only to find out that they were fixed in the 4.4.1 and then expect LG to come out with a new 4.4 ROM to come out with 4.4.1. Yeah good luck!!!

All I am saying is that waiting until Jan/Feb until Google patches these issues are the way to go. Of course Nexus devices can get 4.4 because Google can push an update at any time to patch bugs. Its like being a beta tester on a Nexus device is ok but NOT on carrier phones.
[G2 General] Elnrik:
I would have to agree out of necessity rather than personal preference. I'd love to see 4.4 on my G2, but seeing as how i use it for business, it has to work 100% of the time, and be compatible with an MDM agent.

It looks like CM 10.2 is stopping in favor of 11 with a few holes left in it, so that's out. CM 11 probably won't go stable for quite some time. That leaves me on stock with nova launcher, which I am currently satisfied with. Besides, the more I use the Clip Tray, the more i fall in love with it. Not sure I'd like to flash and lose it.

So... here is to hoping LG and Verizon push 4.4.x sometime in the next 6 months... I won't be holding my breath.
[G2 General] GeknGekn:
You will have to wait a looong time to get those Nexus 5 specific issues fixed for the G2. Firstly all but one issue listed are app related there fore system update isn't necessary, and the device specific camera issue is so not relevant regarding our phone where LG has there own app.

The article is misleading.

I did a manual install of the Vodafone KitKat through CWM when it was released, and so far it's working great. The only thing I have to say that's the least bit less than satisfactory is the battery drainage compared to the original 4.2.2. My battery lasted a lot longer, and when I say a lot longer I mean almost one and a half day longer.

Any tips to regain or at least get a comparable battery life on KitKat?
