Did you flash to a stock rom after flashing a 24a bootstack?

Edit: I know its a TON of reading but I would certainly suggest reading from this page on: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=52039340&highlight=beta+1#post52039340 this will make a lot more sense once you see what everybody has had to do to get the beta to play nice with the radios on the vs980.
[G2 Original Android Development] simon_lefisch:
You could always adjust the volume in the mixer paths file. That's what I do and works great.
[G2 Original Android Development] rustid:
Oh no, I flashed stock and it worked. I was just confirming that was the issue.
[G2 Original Android Development] phaze one:
Where is that? I need to adjust call volume, its loud as hell at the lowest.

EDIT: lol, found it. I might as well be reading japanese.

[G2 Original Android Development] maximus20895:
Does this adjust the 3.5mm volume too. I plug my phone to my car and I have to turn it almost all the way up now :(

Any help would be great!
[G2 Original Android Development] simon_lefisch:
Are you trying to adjust the speaker volume?

Using root explorer (or any other file manager with root access), go to /system/etc and look for mixer_paths.xml. open in text editor and scroll to "headphones". I adjusted the lines that read:

HPHL Volume=20

HPHR Volume=20

Adjust the numbers. Don't adjust them too high. Go slow til you get to the level you want.
[G2 Original Android Development] phaze one:
I'm trying to adjust the earpiece volume for calls. It only goes so low which is very loud, I have to hold my head away a bit during calls.

Did not try Beta 3 so reporting with Beta 4: on D802 everything works for me (no hissing any more!! , camera, rotation with stock KK baseband, gps, media) except for one thing. First time when using Mahdi i got reports from my callers about echo (I can't seem to hear it when I call my voice mail though)
[G2 Original Android Development] simon_lefisch:
Yea I'm not sure which one you would have to adjust. I only adjust the speaker and the headphones. It might be "handset" in the XML file.
[G2 Original Android Development] frater:
The echo is due to acoustic feedback of your LG.

The sound of the LG speaker will go into its microphone and the one you're talking to will hear his own voice a few milliseconds later. This is very annoying for him.

This acoustic feedback itself can't really be avoided due to the closeness between the microphone and the speaker. This means the microphone will always pickup what's coming out of the speaker. Turning it down will only diminish it a bit.

There's a digital technique to get rid of it by feeding the input of your phone with the complement of the sound that's sent to speaker.

This needs to be done with very exact levels and very exact phase shifting (due to the distance between speaker and microphone).

If this isn't done precise it can increase the echo even.

What is exactly happening now, I don't know. But my best guess is that this technique is either not working at all or it has the wrong parameters to work with.

There's no echo on your voicemail because it's one-way audio and there can't be any feedback not during recording nor during playback.

Cheers
[G2 Original Android Development] :
seems like it. In a phone call earlier the sound was distorted by the background noise of the person that called me. nasty reverb lol.

No echo though, which is why I was wondering if the echo would also be noticable on a persons voicemail, those that experience it on D802.

Still am wondering about that

Have been running Beta 3 on VS980 for about 12 hours now and have already had three random reboots. Will try Beta 4 tonight to see if the problem gets better.
[G2 Original Android Development] TDSJR:
Makes sense, kind of a dumb design, but why does it differ between carrier variant, ROMS and even ROM versions? And, it doesn't change based on handset volume. :confused:

I do not have an echo.
[G2 Original Android Development] frater:
IWhy dumb design? The devices are so small because we want them to be. It's clever design that they can still get it to work.

There's no real evidence that there's a difference between carriers. No-one is doing tests and is switching carriers.

A carrier with a low latency network will however produce less annoying echo. I believe it becomes annoying when the feedback is more than 3ms. I think most carriers have more than that.

It varies because the software is different. In the end it will work..

Such a bug will not be present when it's released by LG..

PS... classic phones didn't suffer from this phenomena because they were low latency. They had acoustic feedback, but that would result in a bit of reverb. The receiver pressed to your ear and closing it off also helped. With VoIP phones the latency was introduced and also the need to get rid of feedback.

Cheers

Ok so I looked lg g2 kitkat modems and I downloaded the vs980 12b radio zip. So I flash that fully wipe then flash ROM,patch, gapps and su. Is this correct?
[G2 Original Android Development] Gutsyslap1:
12B is not a KK modem. 24a is. You flash 24a bootstack from xdabebbs stock build. Then flash his rom and boot up fully. Make sure GPS grabs before you wipe and flash the beta. Flash order for the beta (because you already have the KK modem from flashing the stock rom) is Rom > Device Patch > Gapps > SU. Make sure you do clean flash and wipe /system as well.
[G2 Original Android Development] frater:
[MENTION=5232783]dr87[/MENTION] The versions with the echo are also the ones that doesn't let viper4android work on the speaker.

viper4android starts working after you connect a headset and will continue to work when you switch to speaker.

I haven't tested if the in-call echo is gone then.

Cheers
[G2 Original Android Development] note3userr:
What do you mean make sure the GPS grabs? And alright I'll look around for his ROM and install it. How long should I stay on the stock ROM for before flashing mahdi
[G2 Original Android Development] chrisexv6:
This has worked reliably for me a few times now, definitely the easiest way Ive found to get onto the KK bandwagon.

I did have a little trouble installing XDABBEBs stock....I got "failed" a few times when flashing the ROM (the bootloader flash went fine).

Someone in XDABBEBs thread mentioned that, after a normal wipe, /system is already mounted. XDABBEBs flash actually flashes the system image directly so the first step is trying to mount /system.....since its already mounted it causes an issue and you get "Failed" when flashing. The fix is to manually unmount /system in TWRP (after using Advanced Wipe) if you happen to see that error.

---------- Post added at 04:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:13 PM ----------

Once you are on the stock ROM, let the phone boot up and let it settle in for a bit. Then open Google Maps and press the bullseye looking button on the lower right of the screen....it will probably ask you to enable Location, etc....say Yes to enabling all of it (or turn it on, or whatever it asks you to do), then you'll see it got a lock on you when it zooms into the map and your location is about where you expect it to be.

Once thats done, I would personally do a full backup in TWRP, then Advanced Wipe in TWRP and checkmark everything except internal storage, then install Mahdi ROM, the patch for you variant, then the latest Gapps. Obviously you will have needed to copy the ROM, patch and Gapps files to the internal storage sometime before wiping. The full backup can come in handy, its kinda like when you first took the phone out of the box. Its an excellent baseline in case something goes wrong when you are flashing other ROMs, kernels, etc.

That's the ROM we are all talking about right?
[G2 Original Android Development] NateK:
Yes, that's the one (plus bootstack) I flashed before flashing the Mahdi beta
[G2 Original Android Development] Gutsyslap1:
Youre correct. I meant with GPS make sure it locates you accurately otherwise you could have issues on the betas. It may have been fixed but cant be 100%. I just messed around with it maybe 10-15 min and I was good.
[G2 Original Android Development] note3userr:
Ok thanks a lot guys. I have to be extra careful since I don't have a computer at the moment and I can't have my phone gets messed up. Ok so to recap I flash the bootstack and ROM from the link I posted. Let is all start up for a few minutes. Go on Google maps and get a GPS lock. Then go into recovery wipe everything except internal storage and wipe beta patch gapps and su.
[G2 Original Android Development] Gutsyslap1:
Im PMing you
[G2 Original Android Development] phaze one:
Xdabbeb mentions to restart recovery after you flash the bootstack, then proceed to wipe/install ROM. Just wanted to point that out. That's what I did and it worked flawlessly.

[G2 Original Android Development] simon_lefisch:
Weird. I haven't had a single random reboot since flashing beta 2. Did you clean flash beta 3?
[G2 Original Android Development] rustid:
I am on vs980 and just clean flashed beta 4.

I have noticed 2 issues that I am not sure the cause of.

1.) When I restarted the phone one time it started vibrating and did not stop until I restarted it again. Have not been able to reproduce.

2.) I use ARUnchained. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2451980

I have not had an issue in other roms, but for some reason on this rom it is not getting a bluetooth connection with the app. It is able to play the music which I believe is over bluetooth, and I can make calls, but the touchscreen input doesn't get sent back to the phone over bluetooth like it should. I will do some more looking around in other areas but since it is only isolated to Mahdi Roms (4/13 and 4/6 on 12b) I posted here first.

[G2 Original Android Development] JRJ442:
Yeah I got this on beta 3 and 4 with my VS980. I actually went back to beta 2 because of it. That build it doesn't happen on. With a theme chooser theme it was throwing some error repeatedly in the logs. So I went with the system theme and even turned off dark ui. Still had the freezes, so that wasn't the cause.

Is there an option to change or remove the lock screen carrier label? Mine reads T-CDMA 64.

Not a huge deal or even an issue but on other ROMs it is usually tied to the notification drawer carrier label. I found the option to flag it not to show, but the lock screen one persists.

Is there a way to blank it out with root explorer or terminal emulator?
[G2 Original Android Development] NateK:
Maybe you should send a logcat to dr87, then. I don't know how else anyone can diagnose such an issue - especially when most of us are having no problems.

I'm guessing there are xposed modules that could do it for you. Here's one: http://xdaforums.com/xposed/modules/mod-xblasttools-iconcolors-centerclock-t2294419

I've never used it so I can't vouch for it, but some searching turned it up.
[G2 Original Android Development] TDSJR:
Cool thought (I think), to add more richness to the Mahdi experience, not like it's lacking now.

Somehow tie current weather conditions (graphic) and temp into the Contextual notification panel header in the Notification drawer. Maybe source could come from Google services (Now) to reduce resource consumption?

Not a request, just a thought.

I have been following this thread and am currently using an older version of this rom, I was just wondering what is the plan with Hover? I have not seen any mention of it in here
[G2 Original Android Development] cheami:
You answered your own question.
[G2 Original Android Development] perezinthenet:
So it is not going to be implemented into the ROM? They removed halo from Mahdi because PA did, so i figured they would add Hover due to the fact that it serves as halo's replacement
[G2 Original Android Development] JRJ442:
I don't think Hover has even been open sourced yet, so its a little early for all that. It would better to ask your question in the G+ community anyway.

My finders on my 800

Running the KKmodem modom posted in the other read, flashed beta4 from the 4/13 build with a clean install. I've lost rotation. Battery life is good though, and I get random reboots while scrolling through pages sometimes. IE: Internet, themer, facebook. It freezes then reboots.

[G2 Original Android Development] buffal0b1ll:
I got beta 4 to work on my d800 with rotation by using the cloudy modem http://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=12880

It's the stablest ROM I've used in months;)

PS - Not sure if it's important but I'd lost rotation in any ROM I'd tried (Liquid, Stock) so installed Mahdi 2.5 4/13 clean and the dr87 modem http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2705509, confirmed that rotation was working. And then did a clean install of Beta 4 with the cloudy modem.

Hope this helps;)

PPS- If you get caught in bootloops trying to boot Beta 4 (I did the first time I tried it) try the freezer trick. Read back a few pages for the 2 minutes in the freezeer technique.
[G2 Original Android Development] phoenix_rizzen:
D803, previously running beta2 with modified kitkat baseband (to get working rotation).

Manual wipe of /system, /data, cache, dalvik, everything except internal sdcard.

Flashed houstonn's RPM/TZ partitions .zip.

Flashed proper kitkat baseband .zip.

Flashed beta4 .zip.

Flashed d803 patch v6 .zip.

Flashed pa-modular-micro gapps .zip.

Wiped cache and dalvik.

Everything I've tested is working so far:

Rotation, GPS, proximity, and light sensors working.

Audio levels are good, but haven't played with the extremes yet, or with headphones.

Wifi (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz), HSPA+, and LTE are working.

No echo reports from anyone I've called, and we spent almost an hour on speakerphone last night.

Everything feels nice and fast and smooth, although it's only been running for approx 22 hours.

Updates:

camera works for stills and video, including taking stills while recording video

Nicely done! Definitely worth having to (finally) do a full, complete, total wipe. :D

yes, that is the first thing that i did.

When i fist installed after doing a full wipe( everything except my internal storage) the rom booted up fine but i had no mobile data whatsoever,

so i went back to stock and upgraded my prl and profile, after that i full wiped everything and installed this rom and i had mobile data (4G by default) but it does not work, it says i am roaming. So i just switched the mobile network to 3G and it works. but whenever i try to turn on the lte , it says im roaming. even in my area where lte is available. so i was just wondering if it is broken on my device or if there is another step i have to take to get this lte working on my device (ls980).

Thank you for trying to help me.
