am I the only one that has had their efs wiped? well I'm going to keep at it I know I can get this to work I'm going back to my nandroid backup to see if the flashable efs zip works there if not then I'll tot to zvc and try the dd commands on stock recovery thanks for all the help by the way I'll definitely put up a nice guide for others once everythings situated

---------- Post added at 03:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:51 PM ----------

I made the nandroid a long time before I lost the imei but what do you mean by reboot check? and I'm guessing reboot restore again means to flash the restore again?

ok so after all the attempts of copying the efs files I went and tot'ed to zvc I didnt do anything in stock recovery I just booted up and everything was working again I'll write a guide in g2 general forum but idk exactly what path fixed it so I'll just include everything I did just in case thanks to all of you who helped out I really really appreciate it you guys rock and you've earned my respect for life :D

[G2 Original Android Development] Lawlrus:
Never mind, I just went and flashed it on 24a, worked perfectly aside from the already mentioned issues.

That's a relief. I really wasn't looking forward to having to flash back and forth from 12b to 24a.

I tried to flash the verizon version and it's a no go. Boots to the lg screen.. Stays there then reboots back to the lg screen. I flashed everything in order with no errors. Maybe it's the way i got to 24a.. Did you use xdabbeb's method?
[G2 Original Android Development] Lawlrus:
I originally used okbi's ran malladus and micromods debloated.

I did use xdabbeb's to 24a zip when I flashed his ROM though.

Also rotation works fine as is, again because of xdabbebs method.

Flash his 12b to 24a zip, reboot from recovery back into recovery, then try to flash the new Mahdi w/ patch

Should work fine.

Idk its weird i flashed a number of roms before and nothing like this happened before but after flashing the beta rom everything was gone luckily [MENTION=2684188]autoprime[/MENTION] is awesome and automatically backs up efs during root or idk what I would do lol I think I'm gonna stick to stock rooted for a while my nerves are too shocked :eek:

Anyone else seeing really high AudioMix partial kernel wakelocks? I had a lot of them on the first build, moved to CM11 and had nearly none, now I'm getting a ton again on the latest build.

What can I do about these? I think it's chewing up my battery.
[G2 Original Android Development] bhaismachine:
Are you using device tree and blobs from CM ? Also for the kernel I saw that you are using houstonn kernel. Did you copy his kernel folder from his repo or made some other changes as well ?

I would like use your device tree, blobs and kernel to build Carbon ROM. I have thread for Carbon ROM 4.3 for LG G2 and some users have asked me to build Carbon ROM 4.4 (they haven't officially started building nightlies for any devices yet) for them. Thanks !
[G2 Original Android Development] JRJ442:
It probably due to the overlay thing. Happens on mine too. Does yours also show R instead of 3G even though in Status it says not roaming? Mine does that. Did you ever buy the JRummy app Root Tools a couple years ago? You can fix it with that. In that app it has an option to change the carrier label for the pulldown. I couldn't remember if it would change that on the lockscreen too or not. So I tried it. Not it didn't make it blank like I wanted, but it did make it Verizon Wireless. And gave me a 3G icon too. No idea what caused that but if you own the app you can try it until he fixes it.

2.5 == Android 4.4.2 source + 4.2.2 kernel

Beta == Android 4.4.2 source + 4.4.2 kernel

In the long run, the beta will be more stable and should fix all the lockups and freezing. There will be a bit of growing pains for right now as dr87 works out all the kinks, though.

[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
Yea pretty much this, will be a decent amount of stuff that needs fixing over the next week but once its all settled it will work much better than our old 4.2.2 source. Issues aside I'm sure most people notice how smooth and stable the new kernel is (even though its my custom kernel ;) )
[G2 Original Android Development] OfficialPerson:
I wish I could use the beta but I can't take the risk of wiping my EFS again whether it was because of the rom or not. But when I was on the beta my bluetooth didnt work for music and torch in quick tiles didnt work like with other roms.

Yea I'm setting it up right now. Rotation works.. Sound works. Camera works.. List goes on and on. Nice work man... Finally back on asop!

Does the beta fix the annoying bug that loses data. I have to keep flashing this ROM over and over cause I keep losing all data connection. I'm close to moving on to another rom
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
Good chance this issue is coming from the battery saver option added to the rom, try and turn it off and see what happens.

There are 2 known issues with the beta: vibration doesn't work and Bluetooth audio doesn't always work. They're both mentioned in the original beta info post from dr87. ;)

[G2 Original Android Development] note3userr:

[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
I think the issue is once it turns it off. I would flash back to get data, then disable battery saver right away and see if it ever happens again. This isn't anything I changed unfortunately its something in the rom and battery saver just seems likely to me

I would like to share some information that may be helpful:

Today I installed the trial version with the 4.4 kernel based on sources ..

I first came from a Stock rom with the modem kk d805 Unnoficial by Cloudyfa, and everything worked fine, including screen rotation, only noticed the bugs already (vibration, etc. ...).

then restored a backup nandroid back to stock rom.

this time another ROM installed, also based on AOSP, but also contains a kernel-based sources 4.2.2.

then again installed the beta version mahdi with the kernel sources based on 4.4, and using the same kk d805 modem not official, and I not had the job of screen rotation, I'm using the latest phillz recovery, and I cleaned both facilities data, chache, dalvik and system!

I do not know if that helps anything or anyone, I'm just sharing my experience!
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
It does help, it shows its the sensors persisting, I have to find a better method to remove them without flashing the rom a few times
[G2 Original Android Development] Art Vanderlay:
Hey doc, turning off battery saver does fix it. What else does battery saver do? Just curious
[G2 Original Android Development] NOUFELP:
Am I the only one without a working compass on D802? I am in the category who does not have rotation working with original kitkat baseband, in case this is also related to the same persisting sensor issue.

Nevertheless, the ROM and kernel are simply awesome in it's beta state. Kudos to [MENTION] dr87

I think dr87 excluded some of the resources for phablet UI. Portrait phablet works as intended, but the landscape mode is missing navigation buttons. Although that might be a product of the xposed modules I'm running.

Anyone running plane Mahdi willing to try phablet UI? Either get the xposed mod Phab7 or App Settings. With App Settings, go to SystemUI and toggle it on, then tap the x-large res checkbox. Reboot or restart your SystemUI.

The main benefit is the less intrusive notification drawer.
[G2 Original Android Development] Lazy79:
Well, if it would go back (data e.g.) would be nice, but I´ve recognized that the battery saver implemention(s) simply do not work as they should. The only battery saver implementation that works completely flawless is the one used by temasek. Even (indeed) goes back to LTE, flawless.
[G2 Original Android Development] reas0n:
After testing I can say, that's a good and promising ROM, but for now unusable (for me), because I can't underclock the CPU and turn off the cores :( So I'll wait.

Btw, [MENTION=5232783]dr87[/MENTION] , will Your work help another ROMs to get working on 4.4.2 sources (for example Vanir)?
[G2 Original Android Development] Art Vanderlay:
Yeah it is flawed, but I think it still does preserve battery. I use tasker for all my battery saving needs and for wifi/4g toggling, so im not too phazed. Im just curious as to what the functionality of the mahdi battery saver was.

[G2 Original Android Development] :
4.4.2 does not have phablet mode, only tablet/phone. Google took it out
[G2 Original Android Development] Hung0702:
You got it wrong, fella. They took out tablet mode, and now only have phablet and phone to keep everyone on the same Status-Bar-up-top motif. Believe me, I'd know if KitKat had TabUI. I'm a huge proponent of it and I *****ed on Twitter, fb, and Google groups to as many Googlers as I could.

I understand that the android team wants to unify experience to get the same level of quality control and development fluidity as iOS. But they are stripping android users of choice. You probably never used TabUI, hence why you don't have a clue what you're talking about. I exclusively used TabUI, and I still lament having to update to KitKat (only made the switch last month). I even ran PA3.99RC2 for months (and 4.3 never officially came to our phones) after good KitKat ROMs arrived on the G2.

No it won't. The beta uses dr87 4.4.2 kernel sources. Latest Furnace is CAF and 4.2.2.

Mahdi 4.4.2 beta build 2

Clean flash, I forgot to mention this in beta 1

1. Flash pure KK modem (if rotation doesn't work, try my modified modems in this forum - sorry vs980 there is no modded modem for you yet)

2. Flash Rom

3. Flash your device patch *These are V5* Make sure its V5 when you flash it*

Please only report device issues on this build, NOT rom issues (not issues like my nav bar color won't change, but issues like my bluetooth has no sound)

Don't undervolt, our new power driver's from LG are very sensitive to undervolting.

Vibration is working.

Rotation however isn't.

Volumes on Apollo/Play music can't be adjusted.

Edit: enabling setting in DSP did the job for sound issue :)
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
Yea this is the reason I added in vzw stock APN, its my best guess right now but not confirmed fix. Preferred system I believe is a bug in the overlay. Do you know any rom that fixes this bug so I can check overlay? (aosp based)

It should be, but wipe cache / dalvik

Try to check the enable eq button in dsp manager to control volume (bottom option)

Try my modded modem again for rotation, I'm really confused on why some variants can't rotate on stock modem.
[G2 Original Android Development] :
volume has a workaround, a quickfix by opening dsp, enable equalizer and it works.

[MENTION=5232783]dr87[/MENTION] probably same reason as rotation, persistency of weird kind, clean install or not.

will try as well. 4.4.2 bootloader is not needed right?
