[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbkang:
so, on latest (unofficial) build, after flashing and updating all of my apps i decided to try ART. now it keeps rebooting at startup after upgrading 8 to 12 apps ... the apps left counter goes down after every reboot.

[edit 1]

as the phone was getting too hot for my likings i decided to shut it down and let it cool down, i will then relfash the rom and keep to dalvik...

[edit 2]

i think it's some kind of het protection kicking in: let the phone cool down and turned it on normally, it went on with the upgrade at a pace of 20 apps at a time for the first few upgrades, then again 9-12.

shut it down again will try to keep doing this until it boots fully in the OS, unsure of what to do next: switch back to dalvik or reflash the rom from scratch?!?

[edit 3]

After last reboot it upgraded all of them and booted in OS... let's see how it goes...

any comments?

Hide root?

Hello, the app for the bank I use will soon no longer accept access to rooted phones.

If I disable root access to apps using the built in superuser app do you think that would suffice? If not, if I disable all root using the same inbuilt superuser app will this ROM still function OK?

So I am thinking you just have bad apn settings. Have you tried a different variant of the rom or another one altogether? I had AT&T last year, and StraightTalk too. You have to be exact in what you input. Otherwise it flat out won't work.

Wait a sec. You are on what carrier? you said you have a vs980. That's Verizon. And you are talking about AT&T settings. That's probably your issue. Are you on StraightTalk or something? Verizon won't allow me to change the apn settings on mine.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreatHambino:
All you have to do is hit the settings button in the mobile network menu under apn. I have tried all of the apns I have changed networks many times and the VS980 is a factory unlocked GSM phone. I have straight talk which uses the AT&T network. It just seems to not want to connect with data with AT&T. No edge, 3g,or lte. T mobile only gets LTE on one side of of my town and edge pretty much everywhere else so I decided to change back.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lemonfugu:
Ok, well all Verizon Wireless phones use a CDMA band, not GSM. All AT&T apns will ve GSM. So it won't work unfortunately. You need to contact StraightTalk and ask them if they have a apn configuration for your phone because it is Verizon only. I was told they don't use CDMA on that network. Also, the sim card in Verizon phones still doesn't make a GSM phone that will work on a GSM network. I do know since it was activated on a Verizon Wireless network, you could probably use it on Page Plus. But no way will AT&T apn settings will work properly with this phone. Neither will T-Mobile. It's GSM. I know this because I worked for AT&T before and had all carriers at a certain point. Try calling support for StraightTalk tho.

No boot after installing PA

Hi guys,

I recently got my G2 - D802, so naturally I rooted and changed to a custom rom because in my opinion the original UI totally sucks. I am currently running Cyanogenmod 10.0.2.0-d802 but I wanted to change to PA. So I downloaded the PA package from this thread. I read about the black lines problem so I also downloaded the modified kernel.

Copied all the files to the device, installed them, first the rom, then the modem, followed by GApps. When I rebooted, the thing got stuck on the boot animation though. (I waited multiple times for more than ten minutes).

Since that didn't work I tried other ways, namely wiping every partition except data before installing, trying different releases etc. nothing worked, the thing always got stuck on the boot animation.

I also tried different TWRP versions, I think they were 2.7.0.0, another one of which I don't exactly remember the version and currently I am running 2.7.1.0

I also read somewhere that you should restart each time after flashing one partition so I did that, didn't work, tried that again with wiping cache etc. still no reaction. Still stuck at boot animation, tried it without the Kernel fix etc. nothing worked.

Long story short, I tried any way I could imagine, the thing just won't boot.

Nevertheless, I would definitely like to use PA. So long story, short question: did I get anything wrong? Is there a way to get PA running on my G2 or will I be stuck on CM forever?

/edit: I mentioned above that I installled the rom several times, before each of the retries I recovered my CM via TWRP, if that is of any significance.

Thx for replies in advance, best regards

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaherdin:
You sure you ran cyanogenmod 10 before flashing paranoid android builds?

If you're rocking D802, my recommendation is to get any 4.4 ROM running, get gps lock, make sure all networks are functional and THEN:

Nandroid

Secure the Nandroid on a pc

Wipe and install using ADB the latest Houstonn build

Don't flash anything else if you're not sure if you really need it (such as panel kernels and such)

And

Remember that in recovery (I hope I get this right now) all cores of your phone are running at relatively high speed so keep in mind to not stay in recovery too long!

Please keep your progress posted here.

Peace

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derelektrischemoench:
Yes, I am absolutely, positively sure that it was CM 10.0.0.2

Oh yea, and I tried flashing Vanir a few days back on which I had the same problem as with PA, stuck on boot.

But since Paranoid and vanir didn't work for me I thought, hell why not give another ROM a try. So I flashed Ehndroix 14.8.4, based on CM 11, if I recall that correctly and so far everything is working fine, Pretty neat rom, performance could be a little better though. Do you think it would be better with PA? (Since, if I got that correctly, Ehndroix is kind of a skinned CM, right?)

Luckily I didn't encounter any problems there. Nevertheless, I still would be interested in PA, so if anyone has any suggestions, feel free to tell me :)

Peace
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaherdin:
The thing about flashing paranoid android Houstonn builds are that they will intentionally bootloop unless you are on the correct baseband/modem.

And to get the "correct" baseband it's usually recommended that you start off from a kitkat ROM, be it stock or other.

In your position I would;

Kdz back to kitkat stock

Root

Unlock recovery

Flash TWRP

Wipe all

Flash paranoid android

Reboot

I had the same problem but backwards, i've couldnt run CM 11 i did all the things you did do it but nothing worked, then i try everything Vanir, PA, Slimkat (pretty fast but GPS sucks on stock)

In reality i try everything and the last one was CM (i'm looking for a GPS fix just to play Ingress)

And from all the ROMs i try it the best GPS fix was PA but after sometime fails just like my N5 and the other LS980 and VS980 i have, LG just sucks in GPS i already have the E980i think from ATT its just not good enough.

Well what i did was flash the ZVC then OTA ZVD after that, Towelr**t, autorec, flash TWRP, then flash Philz touch, then the ROMs. (then try both Basebands kk stock and the one modified, it was the same as stock ZVD)

This its for the sprint version LS980

Hope this helps

I had a battery issue with the 29/6 build when I was on holiday last week. Tried to post then, but it would't go through. In order to avoid outrageous data charges I disabled auto sync and restricted background data. This made my d802 drain the battery like there's no tomorrow.
