2013. 12. 21. Hotfix available #2

A hotfix is available, which installs a new LG Home application that supports 'knock-(twice)-to-off' feature. Tapping twice on an empty cell (space) of LG Home screen will turn off the screen.

This hotfix is compatible only with GomdoLight W3.0A, which requires the latest stock firmware (F240S: 10Z / F240K: 10X / F240L: 10Z) installed first. If you downloaded GomdoLight BEFORE 04:30 UTC then you need to reinstall GomdoLight from scratch, if you want to update to W3.0A. (Please note that there is no significant changes between W3.0 and W3.0A, just a base firmware update and some USELESS features added by that base firmware)

It should be noted this base firmware updated is intended to support knock-to-off feature, and LG's new smart cover accessory. If you do not plan to use this new feature (personally i do not think this is useful really. who the heck, seriously, would want to turn off the screen by tapping an empty cell of home screen twice, when it is perfectly nice with a screen off widget app anyway?), or if you are not interested in buying LG's new phone cover, you can just choose to IGNORE this firmware update, and ignore this hotfix too.

[LG Optimus G Pro] augus7:
Agree with you, actually this knock feature is not really practical, unless the user have a smart cover.

Btw, thumbs up for your great user guide :good:

EDIT: where is the link for W3.0A? Is it the same link where we downloaded W3.0?
[LG Optimus G Pro] juniecho:
yes, same download link with same file name. when you install gomdolight it will display 'Wave 3, Initial Release' in its introduction screen, but when it is finished you will be able to see 'GomdoLight-Wave3-initA' in 'Software information' under 'About phone'.

please note that W3.0 is no longer available, and only W3.0A is available for download.

- New users are expected to just update to the latest stock and install W3.0A,

- Existing W3.0 users do not necessarily need to update anything and ignore this hotfix too.

(since you're not likely to buy the new smart cover OUTSIDE Korea anyway.)

The kdz file and cwm have a lot of security threats according to my norton internet security :crying:

---------- Post added at 04:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:43 PM ----------

Optimus G Pro, GK:

Press the HOME button, at the moment the LG logo is displayed and front touch buttons

doesnt work, my phone just died after pressing home button. Even when i hold the home button, still doesnt work

edit: so weird, i tried again and keep pressing non stop, now it works

---------- Post added at 04:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:02 PM ----------

I notice the lock screen still shows dual clock. How to fix it?

Also the percentage indicator is not properly aligned. Only the percentage symbol falls inside the battery icon
[LG Optimus G Pro] juniecho:
0. i really do not see why norton is so skeptical about those files :D and you need to press the button at the very exact moment when buttons are lit.

1. i will find more about the dual clock issue. it is known to be intended by lg, but i heard there's workaround.

2. that's normal and intended. only percentage symbol is inside the battery icon, and numbers are taken out to the black area, where they are clearly visible. it's not center-aligned, but slightly redesigned stock.
[LG Optimus G Pro] augus7:
There is a workaround for the dual clock but i prefer to wait for your version to prevent screwing up the ROM.

Anyways, you might want to include an extra step for the root procedure, that is unplug the cable, disable the developer option, enable it again and plug in the cable. This step is done after the device is detected.

---------- Post added at 06:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:06 PM ----------

How to apply the hotfix and adjust the cpu settings?
[LG Optimus G Pro] juniecho:
1. To apply hotfixes, just follow the instructions in the hotfix download page, in short, extract everything in the hotfix to /sdcard, and restart the device, then you're done.

2. You mean the GL Powersaver? Run the GomdoLight Installer from the CWM Recovery again, and this time choose 'Reconfigure'. Your previous settings are not saved, so you will have to literally reconfigure everything. From there you can modify GL Powersaver settings, which include the CPU ondemand control option.
[LG Optimus G Pro] juniecho:
This issue cannot be reproduced in Korea, since it requires a non-Korean SIM inserted. May take a long time to fix this.

And for the root procedure, yes, I used that method in older releases. It is a lot easier just to change USB connection type. However they basically do the same thing: restart adbd.
[LG Optimus G Pro] augus7:
I've got an easy solution using SQLite Editor APK, its required for this fix.

Step 1: Open / Run SQLite and open the below sql DB (com.android.providers.settings)

Step 2: Open the "secure" table

Step 3: Find skt_roaming_dualclock at line 45 Edit value to 1 (change it from 0 to 1)

Step 4: Reboot as usual

I'll edit this post once i found the proper line, i forgot what was it already.

Anyways, how do i flash the hotfix?
[LG Optimus G Pro] juniecho:
as explained in the previous page, extract its all contents to /sdcard, and reboot. that's it, very simple. gomdolight will automatically recognize the hotfix, and install it without any user intervention.

i will look into the sqlite tip, and maybe i can add a script to auto-edit the value in the next revision. thanks.
[LG Optimus G Pro] scufutz:
This can be flashef via cwm? Like a normal sip rom!? Thx

scufutz's LGOP
[LG Optimus G Pro] juniecho:
please read the document, everything's in there.
[LG Optimus G Pro] augus7:
So to enter the update, i have to go CWM -> Install zip -> Select the 229MB Rom file -> Select Update?

Do u have like any other way to directly go into the installation option? I plan to delete the ROM installation file to fit in my movies :laugh:

edit: the dualclock removal, i have updated step 3
[LG Optimus G Pro] juniecho:
Uh, looks like you're confusing between 'GomdoLight version upgrade' and 'hotfix'. They are different each other.

GomdoLight version upgrade is literally upgrading your rom version to newer one. You do this by downloading an updated, new ROM installation file and running it in CWM. After you're done installing/upgrading, you can delete the installer. However, GomdoLight installer is a powerful troubleshooting utility by itself, so you may want to keep the installer so that you can use it later. (or delete it, if you really need more space to fit in your movies :cyclops: )

Hotfixes have nothing to do with CWM, and are installed by GomdoLight's own mechanism. Extract the downloaded hotfix to /sdcard and reboot, and GomdoLight will AUTOMATICALLY recognize that you want to install a hotfix, and install it, and remove all files you extracted when it is done. You do not have to enter CWM to install hotfixes, and they cannot be installed in CWM anyway (they have their own format and structure)

Actually, GomdoLight is designed for the NOVICEs, or newbies :) from the ground, so its hotfix or EasyMod system aims to minimize the occation that users ever go to CWM. CWM is powerful, but it is not friendly to newbies; it is basically text-based, not automated, and most importantly SCARES them off. So I designed a mechanism that anyone can install patches and additional mods without getting into unfriendly CWM.
[LG Optimus G Pro] augus7:
I extracted the file as u said, but when i reboot, nothing happens...
[LG Optimus G Pro] juniecho:
what's the file name you downloaded? hotfix files have the following file name format:

glhotfix_YYYY-MM-DD-TARGETDEVICE-CONTENT.rar

When rebooting, your device should reboot ONCE MORE during the boot animation stage, and TAKE LONGER TO BOOT by 20 seconds than usual. That's installation going on in background, and when you see the home screen it is already done.
[LG Optimus G Pro] augus7:
glhotfix_2013-12-21_F240ALL_lghomeupdate.rar

the location of save is together with all the other folders
[LG Optimus G Pro] juniecho:
hotfix file (rar format) itself will remain.

you should check if 'sysmod' directory and 'gomdolighthotfix' file is still on /sdcard after restarting your device. if they remain, hotfix is not installed. if they are deleted, you can assume it is safely installed.

* since it is a small update (that's what hotfix is for) you may not notice the changes after installing hotfix. also please remember the hotfix you mentioned is only for W3.0A, not W3.0.
[LG Optimus G Pro] augus7:
not deleted. still there,

also, where is my stock File Manager? Im not sure where it went, i guess it is either after few restarts or probably i open X-plore were the cause of the missing stock File Manager
[LG Optimus G Pro] juniecho:
create a file named enablelgfilemanager in /sdcard and restart the device. stock file manage's main activity is disabled by default (because, in gomdolight, lg file manager is used only for supporting usb otg feature and it is recommended to use x-plore instead), and this file reverts this behavior.

and for the hotfix, check out this article http://cafe.naver.com/gomdolight/626

though it is in korean, screenshots will help.
[LG Optimus G Pro] augus7:
The x-plore only gave me 2 option, delete and show details. The move, copy, etc function not working. Worst file explorer i have ever seen :silly:

edit: i managed to install the hotfix as you mentioned in the guide. Thanks

I rooted my device but X-plore still cant move folders...im disabling this ugly file explorer :D
[LG Optimus G Pro] juniecho:
when you dig around a bit more x-plore will be one of the most powerful tool for you, it has been my primary file management tool for over a year.

and rooting with gomdolight is very, very easy. you create an empty file named "enableroot" and reboot, then gomdolight will automatically root itself.
[LG Optimus G Pro] augus7:
hmm, i rooted using the old way. I still can't get my file manager to appear. i created a folder enablelgfilemanager but nothing appear
[LG Optimus G Pro] juniecho:
no, you create a FILE, not a folder. in short, you are giving gomdolight an order by creating a file with certain names. your order is excuted upon the next reboot.
[LG Optimus G Pro] augus7:
Thanks. Its working now

Btw, the adblocker you have in the ROM, super amazing, im watching youtube and there is not a single ad popping out. AWESOME, how did u do it?
[LG Optimus G Pro] juniecho:
it is just a typical adblock file, with some minor modifications. most of them focus on korean ads, but google ads are blocked almost perfectly too. ;)
[LG Optimus G Pro] consolevn:
Thanks for the great work. Can anyone share the battery usage of this ROM on G-PRO F240L. I really concern about how long the phone can go on with one battery. :)
[LG Optimus G Pro] juniecho:
basically YMMV, but typically +10~15% compared to stock. without 3rd party apps someone reported over +25%, but this is a rare case.
[LG Optimus G Pro] augus7:
Any idea how to get the qvoice to english? Or possibly future qvoice g2 apk in ur next update?

[LG Optimus G Pro] augus7:
Any idea how to test my secondary mic on f240. Not sure if hardware or software problem. Speaking in speaker mode is hard for the other receiving caller to hear

[LG Optimus G Pro] juniecho:
not yet, unfortunately. and this new policy is expected to lower the number of carrier(operator) and manufacturer apps, but not google bloats.

moreover the policy has nothing to do with existing devices (for now) since it is scheduled to be applied only to newer models released in april.
[LG Optimus G Pro] caterpiez:
My F240K lost ability to lock the GPS satellite after flashing this rom. It keep searching for GPS like forever. Any advice? :confused:
[LG Optimus G Pro] juniecho:
GomdoLight does not modify any GPS settings. In other words your GPS is exactly in stock configuration. It is possible your GPS has incorrect or outdated AGPS information. In this case you could install GPS Status app from the Play Store to force inject fresh AGPS data.

Hi, any idea why my pc or any other pc cannot detect my android device? I couldn't connect via MTP or any other option. It just stays in charging mode
[LG Optimus G Pro] juniecho:
does your PHONE stay in charging mode even when you change its connection mode? (from the phone side)

or your phone is changed to mtp or other modes, but your PC does not recognize the mode change?
[LG Optimus G Pro] augus7:
My phone just stays in charging mode. My pc does not even detect any device
[LG Optimus G Pro] juniecho:
try doing a nandroid backup, and factory reset the device. and see if problem is solved.

if so, your system settings were corrupt or there was a conflict between system and your app(s).

if not, 1) system itself is corrupt and needs reflashing (from scratch), or 2) it is a hardware malfunction (needs manufacturer support).

About kitkat support

i'm currently working on kitkat support, and i think it will take time, but eventually there will be a kitkat compatible gomdolight.

jellybean version will be maintained, so there will be a separate branch named gomdolight kitkat or something similar, i have not decided the name.

i can't tell you when gomdolight will start supporting kitkat, however,

- i'm currently working on LG G2 (F320S/K/L)

- LG G Pro will be next (F240S/K/L)

- then i am planning Optimus G (F180S/K/L) or LG G3 (F400S/K/L), not firmly decided yet

i managed to install the cwm/twrp recovery WITHOUT ROOT, for LG G Pro and LG G2, and i think that's quite a big step forward.

about Optimus LTE3, VU2, GK, Gx, and G Pro, well... not sure. all lg devices ship with their bootloader LOCKED, so there will be many obstacles to install custom recovery on these devices. they do not have a custom recovery or do not have a way to root without downgrading to jellybean SO FAR, but i hope things will change.

thank you everyone, for your patience and love.

Is there any Cyanogen Mod or latest Kit Kat ROM for this phone (LG F160)?
[LG Optimus G Pro] juniecho:
uh sorry guys, for not being aroung for quite a long time.

as some of you are aware of, i'm a law school student in korea, and right now i'm very busy and tired with midterm.

gomdolight kitkat has been improved for almost half a year, and now it is very stable and muture.

when the midterm is over i will start working on english manual.

here are some things you might like.

1) for f180, f220, f240, f320 users: you will be able to install gomdolight WITHOUT installing a custom recovery, and WITHOUT root! (great for stock lovers)

2) complete and automatic RCT (lg's root check) reset

3) now supports new devices: f320, f300, f350, f400, f460! (and older devices such as - f180, f220, f240)

please stay tuned.

thank you.
[LG Optimus G Pro] GreatCaesar:
I flashed this on my E980 and it runs great. Everything is in English. Just use the nandroid in the OP and flash the latest Gomdo ROM. If you want a really fast stock this is the ROM to go to.

There is absolutely no need to put SuperSU in the "flash after updates" list.

SuperSU->Settings->Install Backup Script

Once you do that, you should never have to reflash SuperSU again, AND any updates will automatically get backed up - no need to refresh the ZIP.
[General Omni Discussion] rodrigorajao:
More importantly, this procedure seems to survive a data wipe / factory reset (I just did it yesterday), so your new ROM will have SuperSU regardless of what ROM you install next (even if the new ROM already has root baked in).

FlashAfterUpdate

Sorry for what might be a dim question, but where is this Folder, or if I have to create it, is there a specific location?

Thanks in advance, etc...
[General Omni Discussion] sunglint:
At the root level of your internal storage, on the GalaxyNote2 it's

/sdcard/OpenDelta/FlashAfterUpdate/

You'll also find the most recent OTA in the OpenDelta folder.

If you change your settings in "Settings" - "About Phone" - "System Updates" to deselect "Secure" then anything you put in the FlashAfterUpdate folder will be flashed after the update but before reboot. Since the update can wipe certain things (Xposed Framework, Superuser) this is a way to set them back each time automatically instead of having to manually redo a bunch of things.
[General Omni Discussion] RaphaDroid:
In order to create the folder, you must check for update at least once. Then you'll have the folder to put the zips. :)
