I tried to flash the volume tweaks that you shared and it errors out when flashing it through recovery ? I don't know if its from me using Philz recovery and having the VS980.
[G2 Original Android Development] MasterTB:
Like many others here, the only issue I'm having with this awesome rom is Bluetooth streaming -music- and the DSP having absolutelly no effect over audio when streaming via bluetooth.

But, the audio does go through well when making and answering calls through my car stereo, funny, that's the last thing I do when I use bluetooth in the car but, oh, well, I'm sure the next version will probably fix this issues, and if not, the rom is too good to pass only because of that.
[G2 Original Android Development] Moppusan:
Same here. Went back to 7/29 on D800. Wish I could do more to help the problem than just reporting it.

And I love the automatic quicksettings ribbon sizing in the 8/09 build. I've come to the conclusion that all computers (big or tiny) are insane.

Bluetooth audio streaming fix

Hi guys. I still see a lot of posts about Bluetooth audio streaming problems. I tested things out with the latest 8/9 build on the stock kernel on my D801, and I still had audio hiccups when the screen is off and I'm streaming music. I found out that both Render's kernel, http://xdaforums.com/lg-g2/development/kernel-render-kernel-aosp-lg-roms-t2803929, and Dorimanx kernel,http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2494756, running on the ondemand governor (using Trickster MOD on the Google Play Store to change the governor) completely fixes the problem for me. At first I installed the audio patch for the Dorimanx kernel that is recommended for hammerhead audio based roms, and that messed up the sound. I discovered that installing Dorimanx kernel by itself is all that is required. I get occasional reboots using Render's kernel, so Dorimanx has been the best for me. If you have audio problems, please test with either kernel and see if it fixes the problem for you as well! Good luck.

Try using the custom recovery in the op.
[G2 Original Android Development] UrbanBounca:
I use TWRP, so Philz may be your issue. Also, I've found that the +85 is the best.

I am on the 8/9 build Ls980 variant.. I've noticed that anytime I install an app that effects contacts (Skype, tango,) the contacts get deleted and I have to reinstall them(not synced with Google). The same thing happens when I uninstall an app also. Any ideas why?
[G2 Original Android Development] ECrispy:
I've just installed 8/09 build (full clean install) on a VS980 with full PA gapps. So far things look good, rom is running great. Noticed 2 issues -

1. wireless charging doesn't work (Nokia charger)

2. in settings, some entries cause a Fc but vast majority work fine

#1 is imp to me, do I need to try a different kernel?
[G2 Original Android Development] jpaulwaite:
To be quiet honest, I haven't run across an AOSP rom that had decent wireless charging drivers. Early on with PA, it would cause my phone to overheat, but not charge. I haven't made any attempts with mahdi, as I said, I haven't had alot of luck with wireless charging. If it's a deal breaker, you can try xdabbeb's stock rom, found here. With xposed framework, it makes for a nicely modifiable stock experience.

Update: for those who have trouble as I did for any chance..... It had to do with my modem. I flashed the 12B modem and got data but the phone voice calls wouldn't work or would lock up when making calls... So I then flashed the 24a modem and got data and voice working now. :D
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
Glad you got it working, although for future make sure to read the OP. Its stated you should be on the kitkat modem in bold text. Would have saved you trouble :good:

New build will be uploaded tomorrow
[G2 Original Android Development] joeminati:
I was on the KitKat modem from the beginning.
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
Yea I see what you were saying now :good:

As far as the bluetooth issues, hopefully they will be fixed in the coming build, I'm reverting an audio change in tomorrows build. If that doesn't work the actual mahdi source may have caused the issue and I will look into it
[G2 Original Android Development] jamesd1085:
New build sounds great...any chance the theming issues have been worked out?...I know its probably not at the top of the list but honestly its the only and I mean only issue I have EVER had since I started using Mahdi...obviously not a deal breaker as I prefer aosp over stock and CM borks something every other build...can't wait to see what's next for mahdi
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
I don't deal with rom changes, the fixes might have to come from CM since its their engine. You can try mahdi g+
[G2 Original Android Development] heleos:
Is the PA theme engine the same as the cm one? I thought PA took cm's and forked it or something

Dirty flash over 8/9 or is clean install better?

Another imp qn - how do I backup EFS? The flahsbale zip doesn't seem to work, no output file.
[G2 Original Android Development] Lawlrus:
Unless you rooted month and months ago, io root should have created a efs backup for you. Check for a folder.

And clean flash is always "better"

Yes I did root a long time ago, I used ioroot25 which claimed to create EFS backup but as I recall it didn't. The flashable zip should be running the same commands and it just creates an empty folder.

8/17 build rebooting

I'm testing things out with the latest build on the stock kernel with stock settings. I just got a reboot while browsing with two tabs open on Chrome. This is the first reboot I've ever gotten with the stock kernel. Since so far it only happened once, maybe it was a fluke. If it continues to happen I'll provide a log. That was my first reboot after installing the ROM.

The new build has come with updated kernel or just Rom itself?

Your first question does not belong in a *development thread* and its situational.

There is no new patch, so no kernel updates.

Download syslog from the play store. As soon as you get one run it and it will take whatever log you want and even zip if up for you.

Obviously in that case last kmsg would be the best bet. Modem might even help too because the vs980 seems to get modem panics for whatever reason.

Yeah I flashed 8/17 on top of 8/09 and when I hit reboot it went into fastboot mode for some reason I'm using the VS980 I don't know if it happened because I'm using Philz ? I always used Philz on my M7 so I thought it would be OK on my G2.
[G2 Original Android Development] fLipz:
Did you reFlashed the S3 Patch?
[G2 Original Android Development] Saythis:
Did you flash the patch afterwards..? Booting to Fastboot means an incompatible kernel typically.

I also got a D802 and I flashed the newest build clean today too and sometimes i havent been able to wake up the device with dt2w since then.

Never had that before...

I reflashed it and made sure that all the downloads are ok (downloaded via my mac) and now it works like a charm.

I'd suggest to reflash the rom with new files. Sometimes this creates miracles ;)

I'm running the 8/17 build, clean install, on VS980 with the S3 patch.

I'm having a problem with selecting the network mode. On a stock ROM, I can go to Settings->Tethering and Networks->Mobile Networks->System Select. When I change the network mode from here, I have the options of Global, LTE/CDMA, and GSM/UMTS. For me, I have to be on LTE/CDMA to be able to make phones calls. Global does not work.

In Mahdi, if I go into Settings->Mobile Networks and then select "Preferred network type" I have the options of LTE, 3G, and 2G. None of these allow me to make or receive phone calls. Is this the right area to look for this? Where can I change between Global, LTE/CDMA, etc?

Thanks.

I personally think that everyone started seeing these problems ever since this commit "Add support for checking proximity when waking device" was added. But that's just a guess and it could be a different issue..
[G2 Original Android Development] :
I doubt that this is related to the proximity sensor. I had an issue with my DTW not working quite a while back (well before that patch). It was related to the digitizer being broke (manufacturing problem I suspect).

I'd highly recommend that people with this issue turning on their developer option for "show touches" and making sure that their entire screen is registering touches. You need to swipe around fairly slowly though or touchflinger will make it look like you're good, when in reality it just shot the touch over a dead area.
[G2 Original Android Development] jlee08517:
Ya know I was just pointing out what I observed. And personally I do notice after a long sleep in my pocket dtw on my phone takes couple tries.
[G2 Original Android Development] randy6644:
i dont know how you guys do that. I was never able to install the v4a, and dont know if it has anything to do with the ART. So annoying, and also i tried it on my gnex on ART, just the same, nothing changed , no effect on the sound. i did check the compartible mode, still no luck.

anyone can help? btw, has the audio hissing with screen off been fixed?
[G2 Original Android Development] Preggy:
Not knowing a whole lot about the matter, I would have guessed that proximity sensor check to be the culprit as well. It might fit considering

On that note on my D802 that option is unchecked by default on 08/17 as well but as long as it is dt2w is not working at all. If I remember correctly, on the first build that had that change, when the option was left unchecked dt2w worked without the proximity check, but once it was enabled even disabling it would not bring that behavior back, instead it would disable dt2w entirely.
[G2 Original Android Development] georgecarstoiu:
Swtiched from CM 11 and I must say that battery life is amazing. Maybe it's just because it's a fresh install but I am hoping that is not the case.

I did notice some problems in both 809 and 817:

1. There are sound artifacts when listening to music on my headphones - noticed them while using Spotify

2. The D2TW doesn't always work. It seems to have improved with the latest build, but it is still not as it should be.

If anybody has any idea on these, please enlighten me :)

Music skipping

I'm on the 8-17 build, I did a clean flash -being this my second Madhi flash ever- and I'm having the skipping issues when playing music and my screen is of.

FYI I've been on other AOSP roms before and never had this issue so bad. It was not present on Carbon, it did happen sometimes on Slim and more on CM but on this rom is like every track skips, and it happens mostly on FLAC audio (which is more cpu taxing than MP3) could this be a kernel issue?

Maybe Governor or I/O Scheduler related -on this matter I've always seen LG G2 kernels use row instead of deadline-...

My 2 cents.

Other than that the rom is really fluid and complete, no SOD's or freezes. Signal is good too.
