How's GPS on Snapshot M3?
[Sprint LG G2] SkdnSn:
How's the spark progress coming along if you don't mind me asking?:beer:
[Sprint LG G2] surge919:
I tried the M3 snapshot and GPS still doesn't work correctly.

When I'm in an app and I toggle GPS off and on, i get GPS access fine. It's a PITA to have to toggle the GPS off and on, but it does work.

Also, what are these missing lib files? Is this the GPS.zip file that has been mentioned?

Do any Roms have a working GPS and Tether? I prefer CM, but at this point, I just want to use what works.
[Sprint LG G2] ebs512:
Non cm non kitkat ROM is stock Optimus DE ZVA 4.2.2 and the library files are in the ROMs source strangely enough the lg GPS fix used to work but no longer does I sent a dmesg log and logcat to a pro logcat reader I'm just waiting to hear back from him and Neo and I are working on implementing a few patches ( 1 for rom(root) 1 for kernel for zva the patch I test applied the other night did pretty good but there were a lot of changes from jb 4.2.2 to zva so where its missing files to patch we will probably have to go in and manually edit
[Sprint LG G2] surge919:
Do you have any feel of when basics like GPS and tethering will make it to CM?

I may just go back to rooted stock.. or do you recommend any other Roms for this?
[Sprint LG G2] yoitsjustin:
Tethering works fine for me, and I've never used GPS before so no idea about that. I don't use Location Services.
[Sprint LG G2] surge919:
Tethering works fine for me as well.. I mentioned tethering since GPS and Tethering are the minimum I need out of a ROM.
[Sprint LG G2] centro714:
I'm on and sticking to the old 1/15 build since I have both tethering and GPS with only minor glitches which hasn't been fixed on later builds.
[Sprint LG G2] yoitsjustin:
oh okay
[Sprint LG G2] centro714:
So what make these phones different where as my g2 gets GPS and my wife's doesn't?

Her phone was on zv8 out of the box and mine zv7 but flashed both on cm11.

Is there a fix for the phones that don't get gps on cm11??
[Sprint LG G2] buracho:
Can I flash it on the ZVA one??? thanx:):)
[Sprint LG G2] Williek113:
No. You will brick. Switch to ZV8 first.
[Sprint LG G2] garwynn:
You won't brick, just be stuck on a kernel boot loop.
[Sprint LG G2] jmacphee9:
I'm assuming it isn't supported since lg didn't the workaround themselves and I haven't tried it personally, but is 24 bit 192 kHz audio output supported with aosp?
[Sprint LG G2] buracho:
Thanks guys!! Any ideas how to switch back to zv8 or zv7 from zva?? Am a noobie in these parts:)
[Sprint LG G2] Demonlinx:
Put zv8 modem on phone, flash in twrp.

You'll find it in one of these threads, or you could read like the 3 other zva thread OPs that also mention it.

[Sprint LG G2] buracho:

Nice I know a week ago I saw something stating a French service provider for the G2 would be releasing over the air by February 28th but it was unclear specifically when US service providers would be doing this
[Sprint LG G2] abhinav.tella:
Yup that's SFR, they are notorious for delaying updates even after giving scheduled dates. Happened to my SFR One X, unless they changed their ways. Sprint has it in testing so I think it should be out pretty soon.
[Sprint LG G2] MrSteez:
Question. First of all I am on ZVA rooted but stock. I know I would have to change back to flash a ROM.

What are my exact steps. This is my first time doing this. How do I get a custom reviver and how do I flag the ROM and what must I do first.

And every time a new nightly comes out do I have to wipe my device again when I flash?

Thank you! So I now have CM11 installed and it is amazing! Of course it is in nightlies though so I know there is an update every day I may want to download. How do I go about that? I saw that there is an update section. Do I have to flash through recovery every time and will I lose my stuff every update?
[Sprint LG G2] jmacphee9:
I just download and flash from the site every week or so. Make sure you save a nightly you find to be very stable just in case something happens with the install and nand back up as need be in recovery. Don't wipe if you are flashing a new nightly, only a new rom completely. Do wipe both caches.
[Sprint LG G2] MizzouBrent:
How stable is cm these days? I have not flashed it since getting the g2 in December.
[Sprint LG G2] SkdnSn:
I was the same way, I flashed a nightly last week (I think it was Feb 25th) and it was very unstable for me. Within the first 10 minutes I had several freezes, SODs, ect., even after I tried different kernels and tweaks. I'm not sure why CM is lacking in stability still. Most other ROMs are very stable as of now.
[Sprint LG G2] MrSteez:
Anybody else having audio problems with CM 11 as of late? I swear I didn't have the problem before but lately my ringtones and speaker audio have been super blown out sounding. It's kind of bugging me.

Anything like this yall have seen?
[Sprint LG G2] MizzouBrent:
mine seems ok so far. Only issue I'm seeing is that the Muzei live wallpaper app doesn't seem to work on the 3/1 build. First time I've flashed CM on the G2 so I have no idea if it worked on older builds. It has worked just fine on every other rom I've tried. 500 Firepaper works so I'm ok for the moment, but I really like Muzei.
[Sprint LG G2] mcluvin1065:
If you want a stable AOSP build, may i recommend carbon. Running kk and it was stable for me...
[Sprint LG G2] bhsvault:
Does anyone else have "Digital Roaming" displayed constantly when connected to LTE?
[Sprint LG G2] roper15:
I used carbon rom for a short time last week, it seemed pretty stable but nfc was stuck on. CM 11 kept freezing on me at the lockscreen after a couple hours. I have zv8 radio and haven't flashed any new kernels, don't know if maybe a different kernel would help.
[Sprint LG G2] MizzouBrent:
I have seen the NFC issue in carbon and cm both. You can disable it and reboot and that should fix. Not sure how to fix if you actually want to use nfc
[Sprint LG G2] SkdnSn:
I have seen the NFC bug in several ROMS. I have a .zip with the correct NFC drivers in them if anybody would like me to upload? You just have to unzip and move the two .so files into System/lib/hw . Reboot the phone and it should be unchecked
[Sprint LG G2] moparfreak426:
Any more info on this?
[Sprint LG G2] SkdnSn:
Yeah I still have them! I'm at work now I'll try to remember to post tonight
[Sprint LG G2] MizzouBrent:
I'd like them! I had an issue with mahdi.
[Sprint LG G2] SkdnSn:
Here you guys go! Like I said, just extract the 2 files and put them on your sd card. Use root browser or file manager to move them to System/lib/hw/ and paste them there! Then simply reboot your phone and the nfc should be unchecked.

Can someone help me plz

So whenever I try to install this rom it boots and shows lg logo and then reboot and keep doing that all the time.

I'm on CVA/lates update from LG and I can install many roms but I somehow can't install this CM11 official. and some other roms as well..

Can someone knows what's going on plz? thanks
[Sprint LG G2] Ascertion:
Cm11 kernel hasn't fixed the ZVA modem patch yet. You can flash furnace kernel for aosp right after the cm11 zip and it'll boot. Either that, or flash the ZV8 modem then flash cm11.

What is the most stable (non LG skinned) Rom out there right now for the ls980? Really wish I had been able to afford the Nexus 5, but an LG G2 free with upgrade was all I could afford for the forseeable future :(

Coming from the GS2 E4GT (sprint), I'm kind of disapointed. The GS2 was never really that stable for me...like the whole 2 years I had it. The fact that there is no stable version of CM out for the LS980 is kind of terrifying...I feel like I just made the same mistake. I want the hassle free freedom of the Nexus 5 at this point...I'm sick of constantly going through xda posts figuring out what to do just to be free of an LG skin and bloat.

I can still return this phone - please tell me, will this phone ever have a stable version of vanilla android (or vanilla android with improvements, like Cyanogenmod...)

Thanks!
[Sprint LG G2] cmart4:
try pac or the aokp rom; both are very good and buttery-smooth aosp goodness.

Best thing for you to do is to read up in the threads before you flash; always nandroid too.
[Sprint LG G2] etd:
I can't even believe i am reading this... the g2 is superior to the n5... i would never pay for the n5 when the g2 is cheaper. Both are made by lg, the g2 has a better camera, larger screen, and larger battery. Cm on the g2 is very stable, AS stable as it is on the e4gt without a doubt.... i am sure once the official kk update is released for the ls980 cm and other aosp roms will become totally stable. I also came from the epic 4g touch and i don't even compare that phone to this one.... they are not even in the same realm. Just try a stock rom like optimus 2.2 that is totally stable until cm is fixed to your "stability" standards and im sure you will learn to love this phone.

[Sprint LG G2] souleman:
Have you actually given the LG skin a try? Or are you just judging it before really testing it? I've used Samsung, HTC and Motorola phones and on those, the stock interface is real crap. But LG interface is actually decent. In a lot of ways, I like it better then AOSP. Any "bloat" can be turned off or frozen. And if you really don't like it, install a different launcher and freeze the LG launcher. This is seriously the first phone I've had or tested where I didn't feel the need to install a non-stock ROM.
[Sprint LG G2] DOBBY0:
I agree with you. I haven't felt the need to install any custom rom. But i also have a nexus 5 that i use for that.

Hello all!

Coming from an Evo LTE to the G2.

G2 was stock, I rooted/recovery'd it, flashed this ROM and it has literally been sitting at the animated spinning Loading screen for ~20mins.

I've had ROMs take a while to first boot but yeah... should it be taking this long?
[Sprint LG G2] souleman:
Nope, never had to wait more then a few minutes. What radio were you using on stock? If it's ZVA, that's your problem. You need to install a different kernel.

Out of the box SHOULD be ZV7. But it's possible that it had ZVA on it somehow. You should be good now if you don't take any OTA. Make sure you have a good copy of the download.

I just saw your post in the PACman rom thread. You definitely had ZVA on the phone originally. Now that you have gone back to ZV7 you shouldn't have any issues with any of the AOSP rom's.

gps working on nightlies or snapshot yet?
[Sprint LG G2] MizzouBrent:
Yes GPS works. If you have issues, either set to "device only" in your location settings, or make a backup, flash a stock rom and get a lock, then restore. then your GPS should be flawless.
[Sprint LG G2] bhsvault:
Question: If I flash the ZV8 modem will I be able to accept OTA CM updates without issue? I loved this feature on my S3 and I hate to be without it on the G2. I've resorted to just flashing furnace with each install be that gets tedious...

Any tips?
[Sprint LG G2] thenimboo:
So I tried to encrypt my phone, the encryption went well (I think), but when I got to the screen where I type a number in, my code wouldn't work. I wrote it down, I made absolute sure I had it right.

Also strange was that I had set it to auto open after typing the code, but there was the full keyboard, with the "done" button being the only way to try to activate it.

It just kept saying "try again."

I have a backup of the stock Rom saved to my computer, so I can fix this, but how do I get back in? I originally heard that wiping data/factory reset would get rid of encryption, but when I try this with my CWM 6.0.4.7 I get:

-- Wiping data...

Formatting /data...

Error mounting /data!

Skipping format...

Formatting /cache...

Formatting /sd-ext...

E: unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]

Formatting /sdcard/.android.secure...

Error mounting /sdcard/.android_secure!

Skipping format...

Data wipe complete.

What does this mean? Was anything actually wiped? What do I do to fix this?

Anyone notice that it doesnt say Sprint under mobile data tile on a recent nightly? It also tells me unknown for carrier under about phone. Maybe its just my weird device.

Here is my observation

- ROM is very fast and smooth

- No way to remove google search widget from home screen.

- When we remove any widget from home screen, Google search loses MIC icon. Phone needs to be restarted to see that again. Not a major issue but looks wired to have just a black screen on home screen

- Brightness control in status bar is wonderful to have and works very nicely

- Could not find search option to search a particular app in menu screen

- No way to add smily in facebook comments

- No way to press enter and go directly go on second line in SMS

- When I add second contact for sending sms to two conects, SMS is converted into MMS

You're not the only one. Mine has been doing this since about the 25th or 26th. I missed a week of nightlies before that because I was out of town though so I can't pinpoint which update it was that did it exactly but it was sometime between the 15th and 25th.

Does anyone have 4G / LTE (whatever you want to call it)?

I am pretty sure I had it before on CM and then something happened and I lost data.. including 3G. I flashed back to stock and entered the reset code ##72786#

Everything worked again so I flashed back to CM.

Now I only get 3G. I changed "Preferred network type" to LTE and Global, but still got no data. Switched to 3G and it works fine.

I also replaced the apn with the apn I grabbed from stock but still no luck.

Any ideas?

Encryption broken in CM11???

Ok so....my phone is completely ****ed. I had everything set up beautifully in CM11, I loved it, was smooth, everything worked.

Saw the encryption option in settings, decided to do it, and then the password I set up would not work. I wrote it down, I was extremely careful, I made sure I entered it properly both times. It just wouldn't work!.

Now I have no phone...I hope I didn't brick it permanently. I couldn't factory erase or anything through the CWM recovery I had. In the "mounts and storage" section, I was able to format the /system partition, but not the /data one. I believe that when I formatted the /system partition I somehow removed root, because now every time I try to exit CWM it says:

Root access is missing. Root device? THIS CANNOT BE UNDONE.

I tried saying yes, but it still asks every time. I am also unable to get the ls980 to be recognized by adb. I have cwm recovery open, and the phone is connected to the computer, but it doesn't see it. I suspect this is because I don't have root?

I am very confused, and could really use some help. The people at the sprint store have no idea...

Can i flash this rom coming from stock rooted zva?
[Sprint LG G2] thenimboo:
I did.

First, get CWM recovery from freegee (easiest and most sure way, I found).

Then have the latest nightly, gapps, and the furnace kernel on your device. Flash them all together using the CWM recovery you flashed from freegee. Make sure to factory reset, then wipe cache, then dalvik cache first before you flash anything, though :)

Should work out just fine! I had a lot of trouble initially just getting the recovery installed. Most of the easy options aren't available to us ls980 users, it seems. Like, Flashify couldn't find a version of CWM or TWRP for the ls980. So ya man, just download freegee (you can get it from the app store), you'll be good.

good luck bro

[Sprint LG G2] surge919:
Did you have to do anything special to get LTE working?

I tried copying my apn conf file from a stock Sprint install but it still didn't work.

Can you post your apns-conf.xml?

for GPS, try setting Location to Device Only.
[Sprint LG G2] Fnord12:
Didn't have to do anything special but I did have the thing running stock for a few hours before I ran CM11.

apns.conf.xml (will likely yank that in a few days. call me paranoid but yeah..)

tried device only earlier but it was leaving GPS on and sucking down battery. I hardly ever use it so i'll just switch it to 3g when I need to do nav.
[Sprint LG G2] surge919:
I grabbed your apn (so you can remove it) and I still can't get LTE :(

If I select LTE and turn on Airplane mode and turn it back off, the setting goes back to 3G. (but no actual data)

If I set it to LTE and reboot, it still shows 3G. (but no actual data)

I have to toggle 1G then back to 3G to actually get 3G data

I also can't change the subscription from NV to RUIM/SIM (I read to try that but it just goes back to NV)

Must be something else going on.
