To reply to myself, for some reason it's become active again today. I hadn't done anything, not even reboot, so it's an odd one. But GPS etc now work.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] coleam:
This looks like the error you get if you're not using the latest version of TWRP. Make sure your TWRP is updated and try flashing then.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Pootch:
Thanks for that great rom..
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] zahir32:
Which Version?

Could you clarify which version of XBMC works with this rom? Are you getting hardware accelerated video with it?

Thanks

Does the download link for this fine rom actually work? All that happens is that I get redirected to a commercial webserver site (Servage One), with no active download button.

Euhm ... guys, link to website with ROM (1st page) is down. And app only shows ROM of 25-Dec and 03-Jan ...

That's what I was talking about too when I asked if the link still worked.

Clear your cache on your browser and flush your dns.

I bet money if you check on your phone from mobile data it will work fine.

Your router might not be renewing is dns cache. You could reboot it, or else change your dns to point to opendns

CHANGELOG

Here is where you can find the changelog:

CHANGELOG
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Mercvtio:
Running fine so far. I just had a small conflict : this update switched from superSU to SuperUser, but it didn't remove the previous app. I uninstalled SuperSU, but now Settings force close when I launch SuperUser from them. I'm rebooting to sse if everything is OK.

Anyway, thanks again !

edit : nope, no joy. Rebooting and fixing permissions didn't fix the issue.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Moose0704:
Please do a clean install and let me know if you still have issues ;)
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] naruto.ninjakid:
Do you know how I would fix my GPS issue ?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Mercvtio:
It works now. I didn't want to wipe everything, so i just cleaned dalvik and cache, flashed the rom again, and all is well. It's all right now!
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] naruto.ninjakid:
Any way to fix this do I need to switch to supersu ?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] katsika:
I was also interested to know if this can be fixed. I get exactly the same message on titanium backup free version and im on cm11.I dont want to install supersu as superuser is an integral part of cm roms. TiBa seems to work fine though.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] jchenny:
Seems like Miracast is still not fixed.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] FuryriderX:
You can ignore the error, titanium backup will work just fine.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Canadoc:

Do people agree that auto-brightness is set too bright or doesn't really work?

Isn't it time to remove the below apps from the build:

* Apollo

* Browser

* CM File Manager

I guess most people use their own apps.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Moose0704:
Yes it does ;)

But it can't be formated as exfat. Exfat won't work on aosp Roms.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Vitamin_D:
Does anything not work with this rom?

Yes, there is no pie ;)

[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] bckrupps:
why can't we restore with titanium backup. i have a ton of apps
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] DontPushButtons:
You can; It says do not restore SYSTEM apps/data with tibu. Regular apps/data is fine.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] NJ_RAMS_FAN:
what he said.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] ikenvape:
You need a rom for V510 (GPE) . This is a V500 ROM for the og gpad .
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] bckrupps:
Wow i love it. Real fast. Any reason why auto hide soft keys doesnt work? I hate the soft keys. They dissapear when you enable it, goes to the lock screen and doesnt stick. Other than that its awesome
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] joshuadjohnson22:
This rom rocks, the colors seem a lot more balanced than other roms (not as much yellow) I still used a filter but was tempted not to. SD card works and so far everything has worked, we will see about that battery life as I put it through its paces tomorrow!
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] bckrupps:
Thanks
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Galactic2:
Im aware. there are still (surprisingly) no Roms labeled for the GPE. The original poster/developer told me to give it a try, just reporting my findings.

Hopefully there's a way to make this work on the gpe...I mean they are the same device.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] naruto.ninjakid:
I find this rather funny because I thought the GPE would get more ROM's and support but it seems devs are not really interested. For me it seems since its stock already theirs not much to customize I guess.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] joshuadjohnson22:
Not to mention all the mods that are already available for that platform. Once you get root the you can use a lot of mods
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] cbb77:
Just curious, is there a specific reason Exfat doesn't work? Seems like a big limitation due to this being standard format on the 64GB cards. Are there other formats that are supported that provide larger than 4 GB file sizes? I use exFat as I tend to keep movies on the card as well. I have my movies primarily coded for my HD TV, watching off my Dune media player and the G Pad plays the file fine without having to re-transcode the movies, which would take a few hours to do so. Again, just curious as to what the limitation is here.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Meisterqn:
Exfat is a proprietary format and you have to pay license costs if you want to use it.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] cbb77:
Got it. Thanks
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Meisterqn:
No prob. I asked in Note 2 forum for exfat support until someone told me, its under license from microsoft.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Radixtrator:
The Rom is awesome but the wifi is buggy AS hell on my tab..
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] whoamigriffiths:
You could give famigo gapps a try.

Not only do you get to pick the exact gapps you want, you can also pick what built in apps, from the most popular roms, you don't want installed.

For example the three you mentioned can be removed whilst flashing the gapps.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] NJ_RAMS_FAN:
Had to restore previous update. The Simpsons Tapped out crashes as soon as I opened it. :D I'm addicted to that game. both dirty and clean installs.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Pootch:
confirmed.. after standby it takes really long
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] rockbigdave:
Really nice ROM! Just wish that GEL stopped forgetting whatever I dock on the bottom-right of the screen but that's not ROM related.

I did notice that Simpsons Tapped Out wouldn't even run (force closed) when I try and run the game. It works flawlessly on the CM11 Nightlys, not sure if it's something that's been changed in Mahdi's that's caused it to stop. I tried several reboots and reset/cache clears.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] dstyled:
Im wondering nobody noticed this...since the last update my system language was changed to english and it isnt possible to change back to german. Its not a big thing to me but its pretty curios.

Great Rom

First of all.... Great Rom! Thx for all the hard work!

But maybe I found a bug in the DSP manager, when I use Google Play Music everything is working fine.

But when I use TuneIn Pro the DSp isn't working anymore? Same thing for 8Tracks......

I stream with BT on a BB Music gateway. I'll need to do further testing and give this post a edit when something new pops up.

But just to be curious, somebody experienced the same problem yet or am I the lucky one? :angel:
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] ermacwins:
So this a rom built from aosp source?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] toyface:
No Root Access?

I've just flashed the ROM, the latest build (3rd Feb from the site) and it installed great, WiFi seems to be working very well. However, I have no root access at all. Really unsure why, too. I did a fullwipe, flashed the ROM, then recommend GAPPS and when I went to use TiBu it couldn't get root. So I thought I'd have a look in the settings and they seem fine to me, so then I installed SuperSU, which didn't help at all, couldn't even update the binary.

Then I flashed a SuperSU ZIP and even the included SuperSU app tells me there's no binary? I've fixed permissions etc etc, so can anyone help me with this? Thanks, really liking the look of this ROM! Just need root to get my apps back :)

Thanks,

Tom.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] whoamigriffiths:
You could try rolling back to a nandroid and then dirty flash mahdi rom.

Obviously a backup of an earlier mahdi would be preferable or maybe cm (mahdi now based on cm)

The only thing to worry about is that you may end up in a boot loop.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] aeroman:
you must flash after Rom install, the SuperSu.zip in Recovery. ;)

you can download it here from the SuuperSu thread. ;)

●tapatalked LG-GPad V500●
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] toyface:
Thanks to Aeroman! I am not sure what happened but, I downloaded the latest SuperSU ZIP, and flashed it in recovery after the ROM and GApps and everything is fine where root is concerned.

My next thing is, how can I change lcd density in the ZIP? I tried editing the build.prop but that hasn't seem to have done it. As nice as 270 looks, I don't want to be dealing with any issues from the market and 320 looks good to me anyway.

Thanks,

Tom.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] dsmitty166:
It backs up your current dpi before flashing. So even if you change the zip, it will still pull your current dpi on a dirty flash.

Change it in system/build.prop after flash

Team Mahdi-Rom
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] aeroman:
In this rom is Superuser (dont sure) :) integrated, You installed now SuperSu & updated your Su binaries, glad if works, here works fine too. ;)

to your other question...

Build.Prop should right for change the dpi, dont know why not works.

try AppSettings from Xposed, so you can change every dpi for whole installed Apps. ;)

What about sdcard issue mate? Any suggestions?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] RandomChance:
I've found that on at least the last couple of releases, when I go to change the notification sound in settings that it won't play the previews (won't play them in the GApps email app either), although it does actually save the new setting. If I try to change the "on charger" sound, when I hit the OK button it tells that Settings has stopped working and restarts settings. I though it might be my device, so I flashed a few other ROMs and recovery images. The sound settings work in stock, CM11, and PA but not Mahdi. I've verified that the files are present and can be played, just not in the settings manager. Love the ROM though, its definitely the best out for the G Pad!
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Pootch:

What issues are you having with your SD card, I have a 32GB in mine and have no issues with it.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] mikelav456:
My SD card is acting up too. I have a 64GB card. Was working fine. I went to format to make two partitions to use Link2SD, now won't mount no matter what if the partitions are ext2. It was working with fat32, but that doesn't seem to be working anymore either. ext2 format should work right?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] shingers5:
Put it in and it said not recognised and asked me to format it! I did and now it says that I have 200mb only but it's a 16gb card! Have no issues in other devices just this one
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Moose0704:
Try and put it in your PC and format it and see if you get the correct size, might be the card itself, if it does show correct try it in the tab again and see what happens. Also is the card SD or SDHC?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] NoLips:
[MENTION=4628777]Moose0704[/MENTION] - I really appreciate all the work you do, but.......

Could you check DSP setting in the rom? I did some further testing om BT and Headset and only Google Play Music is working with the DSP Manager on BT and Headset. TuneIn, 8Tracks and InfiniTracks can't use the DSP in the rom. (BT or Headset)

I really hope you can solve this, because I use the Gpad mainly for music and radio.

Edit:

Found this threat with updated DSP for 4.4 - http://xdaforums.com/nexus-4/themes-apps/app-apollo-dsp-manager-4-4-t2516306

and here the apk with updated DSP - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=49500732&postcount=64

I manually replaced the DSP - rebooted and can confirm that everything is now working fine with all apps. - So could you take this with you in your next update of the rom?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Kreuzfelder:
Hi,

in CM 11 only one Game not installable in Google Play Store.

In your Rom last Week there are many many Apps and Games that can't install in Play Store.

Is that fixed in the new Rom?

EDIT:

I think/found it was a Problem with the LCD Density.

Now i have changed some, 120, 240, 360...but nothing worked?!?

Any Idea what Density i need for all/most Play Store Apps?

By the way, in Stock 4.2.2 Rom from LG ALL Apps and Games are installable. In CM11 only one doesn't work.

In your (the best Rom for the G-Pad) many Apps/Games don't work :(

> Fairway Solitair, Candy Crush Saga, Angry Birds Star Wars etc. etc.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] RandomChance:
Stock and CM11 both use 320 as the LCD density. Maybe that will work?
