You have to restore all modifications to the system, or the update will just fail when verifying.

Downloaded and installed the zip from recovery. Installed without any problems, but when I loaded the camera and to test if it got quicker the phone got warmer and warmer until I heard something that sounded like electronic power surges coming from the camera area and the phone froze. Not had any trouble before like that. I'm on the first version of the n4 from Jan 2013... So maybe hold off updating... It got burning hot...

Also I can't seem to install the update via adb sideload or via TWRP. The update is aborted. I'm running stock kernel, rootesd with xposed.
[Nexus 4 General] fabsy:
Yes this will break root.

Use NRT to restore stock recovery and stock kernal and disable xposed also

You can then use NRT once again to restore root... worked for me

Try reflashing the KRT16S stock Rom. Because if you unistall any system app it will not let you flash.

I was having the same problem because I uninstall googleears.

[Nexus 4 General] kaimyn:
I assume you're on a stock image since you're trying to update via OTA. You can flash the stock system.img file without losing data. It should work after that.

Zip via recovery.

I was on stock, rooted, with libART mod, TWRP & AK kernel. This worked:

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img

and then in TWRP flash the 441 OTA zip :good:

what didn't work: straightaway flash from TWRP , flash from TWRP after only fastboot flash system.img

then I have no idea , sorry

I was on stock KRT16S Franco r197 and cwm 6.0.2.3
[Nexus 4 General] :
Thanks anyway!!

I was on stock KRT16S, stock kernel and TWRP..

Anybody any ideas?!?
[Nexus 4 General] madd0g:
Did you also flash the bootloader and radio from the KRT16S image ? The OTA patches those too, so if they were on older version it might break because of that.
[Nexus 4 General] :
No I didn't.

I'm already on the latest bootloader, radio etc since i got the OTA to KRT16S a week ago.. why to flash them again via fastboot?
[Nexus 4 General] madd0g:
Yeah, I've meant if you flashed them anytime before, didn't necesarily mean now. Hm weird error then. Try changing recoveries and reflashing there.
[Nexus 4 General] :
thanks for the tip :good:

i got the error 7 problem solved by following this steps:

1. install stock recovery

2. using adb sideload to install update.zip (4.4.1)

3. reboot

cheers!!
[Nexus 4 General] Squarius:
Problem: I installed another launcher to my Stock 4.4.1 and it didnt work.(mi-launcher) So i uninstalled it. Now my Lockscreen is like 4.4 stock (no tranparency).

Solution: Delete Launcher Cache, Data and force stop (see screenshots attached) and you will get your transparent Lockscreen back.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ElfinJNoty:
I am a very big fan of a "Holo Dark" theme to my android devices. There are a plethora of theming options for system and or user apps for aosp based roms. However the LGHome launcher is a pretty feature packed stock home launcher and utilizes all of the LG .apk's designed to be part of the stock UI. You lose this functionality with a 3rd party launcher with theming support or with a non-stock based custom Rom.

I have a collection of user apps to satisfy my desire for the "Holo Dark" look and feel, but would love to have stock LG system .apk's to match! These would include:

Messaging

Dialer and the small incoming call pop-up

Contacts

Email

Calender

Settings

***system UI theme inverted with white and Holo blue text/icons on a black or dark gradient background

I know this would be no small project, but I believe I cannot be the only user who prefers this type of look, and if the request isn't made.... well then there is nothing to gain.

Anybody can feel free to chime in here. Suggestions. Alternative .apk's or T-Mobile theme chooser options? Is it even possible or legal to modify the LG stock .apk's?

Most importantly, are there any active developers and/or themers able and willing to accomplish this?

Thanks for your consideration :D
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Incep:
Theming the things you mentioned would be nice. The bold typeface on white is a a torn on the eye, it refuses to obey the system font :(

I know it's possible, in Rayglobe ROM there's been some theming of the dialer and contacts app. In my opinion not for the better, though!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ElfinJNoty:
I'm using Rayglobe currently, not the themed version. Then flashed a theme made for version 3.x but it only themes the quicksettings colors and status bar dropdown background. Better looking than stock for sure. However, doesn't touch any .apk's
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apascual89:

Not to mention i posted a full 1080p screenshot of my G2 while the Flex only has a 720p screen lol

Looks good man, glad to see someone else putting in some effort to help invert this terrible white UI lol

EDIT: If anyone knows where i can find some LG Flex screenshots i would love to base my theme off of that
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Incep:
That looks pretty good aswell! I personally prefer the ultra flat design language that dominates the most recent mobile OSes recently, over the gradiented real-world-object-esque buttons. Your toggle switches are nice, but they look a bit messy when some are activated and some are not, in my opinion. The blue text color was also a bit too deep in my opinion. The buttons look good, and overall it's way nicer than stock :)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B!GBOY:

do you have any plans for sharing this great work of yours?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NRGZ28:
I agree with you. I guess I'm just used to the real world type UI that HTC started doing years ago.

I don't like the cartoonish flat UI's of today. Too common and too simplistic for my taste :)

I agree the blue might be a bit too deep.. will light it up a bit. In the mean time.. here's a pic of the incall UI.. hehe

Is there a way to use exposed to invert these system apps. I'm no dev so I don't know what goes into doing this but seeing as u can change nav bar, status bar and such maybe a module thru exposed can b made?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NRGZ28:
Of course you can.. but someone has to sit down and do all that in an exposed module. It's much much easier to work with the app directly.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ElfinJNoty:
Love to see this thread getting views and screens/news of some theming taking place.

I use Rayglobe 3.2 on my Tmous d801. Stuck with stock ui(LG flex launcher with multiwindow built in) in place of the Rayglobe theming, not my style.

Am willing to test anything on d801, and soon as someone shares work I will update op with links and proper credits.

Thanks for the feedback and brainstorming guys, glad I'm not the only guy who is itching for a dark Holo UI :)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ElfinJNoty:
I like so far, possible to replace blue color with Holo blue? That dialer and toggles are definitely a move in the right direction!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ElfinJNoty:
There is an exposed module, believe it is called XThemeEngine

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2240180

which basically allows the use on theme chooser themes to be applied at boot. The themes are all based on CM style theme choser(aosp based builds) and the exposed module couldn't apply many of the theming to the stock LG ui. There is some modifying involved for the theme chooser themes (On xda or free and paid in market) to work through the module. The module also has some limitations on what it can apply theming to, as I understand it can't touch system UI. I was able to install a compatible .apk theme listed on the modules op, and apply using the module. But it changed certain colors and not others, certain text was unreadable, etc. Conflicts with our ui not being aosp.

I suppose a module could be used for sure, but it would have to be specifically applied to our ui, and I think there would be differences for the different G2 variants.

Maybe [MENTION=2416121]ock[/MENTION] could be some assistance in answering this, as his mod here for status bar icons uses this method:

I'm always a fan of #ff0099ff, it's a perfect blue ;) Also a huge fan of "3D" icons/UI. Flat bothers me, too... boring. Anxiously awaiting Energy ROM. Any hint as to which models you will support? VS980 perhaps? ;)

Not completely, the xposed module, xThemeEngine cannot theme anything controlled by the styles.xml of apps. Most of the system apps, as well as things in GMail and othere, cannot be themed. That's why there are issues with ports. I ported my EpicBlue over and it was a mess because a ton of the mods in the CM theme rooted back to styles.xml.

And yes.. I plan to support multiple LG2 variations, but obviously the TMobile version will be first ;)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stetsonaw:
Thank you for changing your mind!

Odexed or Deodexed? I don't know about other people, but Odexed runs great, nobody flashes full themes anymore (correct me if i'm wrong), since xposed exists, and you can't get certain LG apps if deodexed. Such as Weather (even using Chronus on the lockscreen, still shows the weather animation), Plug & Pop (which once configured with specific apps is super convenient), and a few other goodies i forget about right now are just great to have around. Inverted apps, like the Play Store and Google Now can still be flashed after deleting the "stock" apk and odex file.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NRGZ28:
I deodexed my ROM since it's much easier for me to work with it. I can odex it, or better yet, you can odex it yourself on your device after you install it.

But seriously.. with the powerhouse that the LG2 is, do you really think it makes a difference ? I never saw the difference on much older devices, let alone today's device :)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stetsonaw:
Completely understood, the only reason i'm running odexed is so that I can use apps that i've heard can't be deodexed, like LGTangibleIO and LGVZWSetupWizard_JB (which control/house the Accessories section of the settings, which enables Plug & Pop), LGWeather, and there was one more, but can't remember off the top of my head.

...unless you have found a way to deodex them? Or how would I deodex them from the device? Haven't seen a good tool for it since Xeudoxus.
