Is anyone else getting quicker heating with 07/09? It sometimes gets a bit hot with normal everyday tasks. I'm also getting max 4 and a half hours of SoT, default kernel settings. I was on ART, but I switched back to Dalvik now, so hopefully it'll get fixed.
[G2 Original Android Development] AuzanAgnar:
AOSP is the same as stock?
[G2 Original Android Development] Adinaky:
Yeah, I got that as well. I was just browsing on Chrome or Tapa and the phone was quite hot for such a task.

I don't have any previous experience with this as the 07/09 is the first Mahdi I flashed. Never got this on stock/Pardus.

Also I was on Dalvik, so I don't think it's from that.
[G2 Original Android Development] edinchez:
That's sad... I'm very close to going back to 6/28. It was undoubtedly the best one so far.
[G2 Original Android Development] Adinaky:
So that one doesn't have this problem? I think I'm gonna flash it right away and stay on it until this is fixed or something.
[G2 Original Android Development] Shaggs1983:
AOSP is android stock bare bones, nothing added (similar to what nexus phones and tablets run)

LG G2 stock is ASOP with LG's overlay (launcher, camera, qslide, etc).

I hope that helps.
[G2 Original Android Development] :
I been on Mahdi 07/09 build since it came out and no issues
[G2 Original Android Development] edinchez:
As far as I know, nope.
[G2 Original Android Development] Adinaky:
Okay, I'm going to flash it in an hour or so and report back!
[G2 Original Android Development] edinchez:
Great! Let me know so I know what to do.
[G2 Original Android Development] AuzanAgnar:
so can i flash mahdi camera app?google camera sucks
[G2 Original Android Development] Shaggs1983:
Try this mate, it's the CM11s CameraNext apk.

http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/themes-apps/app-cameranext-one-plus-one-cm11s-t2730715/page3

I know it's in the Nexus 5 forum but it works and I'm using it on the latest Mahdi build for my D802.

Can anyone confirm that offline charging works on the 7/9 build or not
[G2 Original Android Development] jason2302:
Switching between front & back cameras is very slow on the newest update.
[G2 Original Android Development] veloct:
Do you mean wireless charging? I'm curious also. Seem some people had to run Dorimanx but it's not clear whether it is completely necessary or not.
[G2 Original Android Development] chrisexv6:
Offline charging and wireless charging are different.

The last Mahdi build I ran (6/28 I think) still had issues with wireless charging. Installing the Dorimanx AOSP kernel fixed them and it wireless charged correctly

Offline charging is different - basically will the phone charge without being powered on. I cant confirm if it works or not because I dont power my phone down to charge it. Ive run it down to a point where the phone shut itself down from low battery, then plugged into a charger...I *think* it works (you can see the screen turn on, but completely black). After a few minutes the phone can power up and the battery %-age will be above 0.
[G2 Original Android Development] simon_lefisch:
There is no offline charging with AOSP ROMs.
[G2 Original Android Development] Adinaky:
I've just flashed 06/28, but unfortunately the problem still persists. The phone gets way hotter than it should for some simple tasks.

You can try flashing it as well, maybe it will do the trick for you.

What could be the side effects of this though?
[G2 Original Android Development] edinchez:
Crap. I have no idea. I just know that it's been happening since I flashed 07/08.
[G2 Original Android Development] count_martin3z:
Guys, can someone be so kind and paste links to 28/6 build and the patch for d802?
[G2 Original Android Development] :
I am sorry but i have to say your wrong. Offline charging works for parandroid, gummyrom, and vanir.
[G2 Original Android Development] Adinaky:
Oh well, a ROM is not a ROM if it doesn't have a small bug or something, even if not for everybody.

Check post 12744. Please search more carefully next time.
[G2 Original Android Development] simon_lefisch:
Oh cool. Glad its fixed. Dont really use it so not a big deal.
[G2 Original Android Development] jamesd1085:
I just locked my GPU down to 320 and it stays cool and I haven't noticed any loss of performance
[G2 Original Android Development] Adinaky:
I put it to 389 so it's not really that low, maybe it will work. If it still doesn't then I'll put it to 320 as well.

Thanks for the advice!
[G2 Original Android Development] phoenix_rizzen:
Access to the hardware step counter sensor

Not sure if this is an AOSP limitation, a frameworks limitation, a kernel limitation, or something else.

The Nexus 5 and LG G2 have a hardware step counter sensor (separate from the GPS/accelerometers), and Android 4.4 exposes an API to access that step counter without waking the CPU and without adding extra battery drain (something the GPS/accel-based apps cause).

There are reports of this step counter being accessible on 4.4-based LG stock ROM using apps like Pedometer Pro by Ivon Lui.

If I install this on Mahdi 20140709 with RenderBroken's R2 kernel, I get "counter not available" error when the app starts, and then non-stop "this process has been terminated" errors.

I haven't tried it yet with the default Mahdi kernel. The 15-minute refund window makes it a bit of a pain to test things. If others are interested in getting this working, though, I could eat the app cost and get logs (there is a debugging option in the app) for any devs ([mention=5232783]dr87[/mention]? [MENTION=4316709]savoca[/MENTION]? [MENTION=5438598]RenderBroken[/MENTION]?).

There's a thread here with links to the app.
[G2 Original Android Development] NateK:
Same message using the default Mahdi kernel. There is a free version of the app you can use (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ivon.pedometer&hl=en).
[G2 Original Android Development] mmoogle:
The hardware step counter works for me using the default Mahdi kernel on VS980 with the 6/25 build (I'm too lazy to upgrade since everything works fine).
[G2 Original Android Development] CaptainAnd:
this rom lags dude. :D Sometimes it don't open applications. I have to restart the phone to open these apps. I wil waiting the next release. I hope somebody fix this :D
[G2 Original Android Development] UrbanBounca:
Did you do a clean flash? Your issue is isolated.
[G2 Original Android Development] goldlocke:
My d802 on Mahdi 07/09 definately charges while turned off. :D

Steps to reproduce:

1.) Turn d802 off (not only display on standby ;))

2.) Plug-in power cable (attached to wall adapter by LG)

3.) Shortly after plugging in you will see the display turning on and showing the LG logo briefly. I assume some charging mode is activated at this time. (Display will turn off again)

4.) Let it charge for ~10mins.

5.) Disconnect from power cable

6.) Long press the power button => d802 will boot Mahdi again and your battery will have charged up some percent
[G2 Original Android Development] mistah_mumford:
Definitely try a clean flash as I've not experienced any lag on any version of this ROM!
[G2 Original Android Development] :
That's not anything to do with offline charging.

---------- Post added at 07:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:49 PM ----------

Offline charging is full charge while phone is off
[G2 Original Android Development] bps119:
The only time I have lag is while listening to music. Namely, music from Google play music app.
[G2 Original Android Development] margaretiak:
Well, I used search but found nothing related to my problem.

Does Mahdi ROM control data? Data turns off in screen off. Going back to edge and then to 3G. But sometimes(mostly) it turns off data and won't turn it back or just to edge.

Can I stop this service anyhow?

Thanks .

Edit: won't create another post. I feel stupid every time I post here. Actually I even played with those settings. Thanks.
[G2 Original Android Development] mistah_mumford:
Go into battery and see if you have battery save turned on. If so make sure that you don't have the option to disable mobile data checked

Hey guys I see a few threads where people are talking about having busy box installed and I know stock based roms come installed with them but what about aosp roms is it needed or is it already comes with it. Plus last thing do I need to install busy box each and every time I put a new aosp rom on there or one time deal.
[G2 Original Android Development] Ace42:
You guys are underestimating the GPU.

Ahem, the older Adreno 320 is even capable at 200mhz, and given the changes to the 330 it is fine at even 200mhz (1xxmhz if a dev would add that range...). I can watch 1080P videos (haven't bothered with 4K recording...) at only 200nhz, games are also fine (except spiderman, that game is buggy on every android phone I've used). /rant

Transmitted via Geass
[G2 Original Android Development] phoenix_rizzen:
According to the notes for the free app, it doesn't use the hardware step counter. Or, at least, that's how I read the "everything below this line requires the Pro version" right above the "you need a Nexus 5 or G2 to access the hardware sensors" bit.

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

Which app are you using?

---------- Post added at 02:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:03 PM ----------

When you're watching 1080p movies, you aren't using the CPU/GPU. You're using the hardware H.264 decoder modules. Thus, you could downclock the GPU to 50 Mhz and not having any issues.

Install MX Player. Configure it to use Software Decoding. Lock the GPU to 200 MHz. And then try to watch a 1080p movie.

Then configure MX Player to use Hardware Decoding. Leave the GPU locked at 200 MHz. And then try to watch a 1080p movie.

Finally, configure MX Player to use Hardware+ Decoding. Leave the GPU locked at 200 MHz. And then try to watch a 1080p movie.

You'll get very different results with the first and last options.

Media playing is not a good way to judge the power of a GPU due to all the extra hardware decoding blocks on a Qualcomm SoC.

Camera Mahdy

I really enjoy this ROM, maybe the battery should be improove, but every AOSP rom's have this problems.

I playd abbit with the camera, I tried to shoot some shots in YUV422SP format instead JPEG. I export the shoot's on my PC but I can't see them, I tried some programs and also installed codecs, but I still can't see the final raw resault, I'm abble to se only a grayscale pic, no collors. Someone know what to do?

[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
No more battery discussion please, its too subjective and in 95% of cases its a user / google app causing the issue
[G2 Original Android Development] mor_1228:
i used the same build no mods no other kernel and no battery drain like this.

though i now moved to build 28/6 as many people were praising it but i didnt find any huge difference between 28/6 and any latest build, all are giving same battery life and performance to me but for latest builds like 7/9 i felt the new roms are quick and snappy with new features 28/6 feels little slow when i compare with any latest build. battery depends on user usage only so no point in discussing battery.

but everyone have their own choice so right now after making a backup i am flashing now latest build 07/18 lets see how it goes.

use only minimum gapps, never use google search, now, freeze maps, hangout and other battery sucking apps.

we all should stop talking about battery issue now as nobody complains that much
