I doubt you even have flashed Dori's kernel, since your phone should't even boot with his kernel on Mahdri ROM.

And for your question, To get to recovery you go thru the factory reset screen, just push the power button on that screen 2 times and it will jump into your recovery.
[G2 Original Android Development] marsisabar:
I mean it flashed and rebooted fine and everything has been working.
[G2 Original Android Development] TITANote2LTE:
Advanced reboot is in developer options...check it.

Stick with dr87s kernel, very smooth

what has been all of your guys go-to GAPPS for this rom? Going to switch to mahdi when the new version comes out, trying to find the best ones to use. Thanks
[G2 Original Android Development] jeff5347:
Just curious. The n4,5,7, g pad and s4 have the 2/9 update. Only the g2 hasn't gotten the update. This is not an eta question or when will it be here but but I'm just curious if we will be getting the update as well
[G2 Original Android Development] marsisabar:
Awesome! That's exactly what I was looking for. I looked in developer options too but didn't see it the first time.

Thanks!

I couldn't get FreeGee to work with newest version and patch for vs980. Turns out ro.product.model in build.prop was wrong. It was set to simply G2, when it should be model specific. In my case it needed to be "VS980 4G".

(Without the quotes)
[G2 Original Android Development] JRJ442:
Its probably because its one ROM, then you use the individual patch for your device. I guess he could incorporate different build prop lines eventually to change that stuff per device. But its kind of minor at this point. I thought on the stock LG ROM it said LG-VS980? Thats what I've been changing various build prop lines to.

Is anyone else having issues with muting the game Banana Kong? My media and phone volume are set to silent but the game still blasts music. I also tried setting the volume tile to silent in the quick settings. No luck
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
It's finished, I gave it to moose to upload to the server, had an issue where settings would FC on the G2 but its fixed now
[G2 Original Android Development] room511:
When newest build is out, do we use the OTACenter app to update?
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
not yet but I am going to talk to the mahdi team to get that working with the G2, I think I just need to update the overlay and submit it to them
[G2 Original Android Development] room511:
Sounds great mate!

Incredible ROM here!

I think this has been the longest time I've spent on a nonstock ROM!

Cheers!
[G2 Original Android Development] vanessa13006:
Do you think the G2 is a top priority for them ? All other devices are up. Anyway, let's be patient. And thanks for all your work. :good:
[G2 Original Android Development] cynikalJ:
So I am not asking for am eta but should I wait to download the current version?

might as well wait otherwise your probably going to be re-doing your setup which would be no fun

I've been told update will be uploaded in a few mins :good:

Can I dirty flash the newest version over my current Mahdi installation? Thanks!
[G2 Original Android Development] jlee08517:
Nope whatever came with the kernel plus +50 voltage
[G2 Original Android Development] TITANote2LTE:
I did. Just wiped both cache installed update with kernel.

New animations are pretty cool.
[G2 Original Android Development] jlee08517:
Ended up with only 6 hrs and a half screen time. But with an hr of music and an hr of Pandora on lte with Gps on. Since I had to drive. Still a great run.
[G2 Original Android Development] room511:
I've never updated this ROM before. Is it necessary to flash patch and su again as well?
[G2 Original Android Development] glacies:
I just flash the update, flash patch, wipe cache and dalvik, reboot...

and it works :)
[G2 Original Android Development] marsisabar:
Awesome update. Everything is running very smooth. No change in regards to the bug with certain games not registering touches (can't interact at all) such as Pitfall.

it's still the smoothest rom yet and I love the customizations.
[G2 Original Android Development] mestguy182:
I dirty flashed the update and get a non-stop Google sign-in error and had to restore back. I flashed the update, then the patch and then cleared cache and dalvik, any ideas?
[G2 Original Android Development] JahCartel:
Well new here clean install and everything is working and I didn't have to install anything extra to customize my status bar thanks.
[G2 Original Android Development] JRJ442:
Did you flash Gapps too? Didn't see a mention of that.
[G2 Original Android Development] room511:

[G2 Original Android Development] s--c:
Shouldn't need to do +50 voltage no more :)
[G2 Original Android Development] TDSJR:
Forgive my ignorance, why OVER volt? What are the gains and the downsides?
[G2 Original Android Development] Yamahar6riding:
Different phones with the same model number will respond differently with the same roms/kernels. Sometimes undervolting or overvolting 25-50 can stabilize the crashing/freezing.
[G2 Original Android Development] s--c:
Some pages back moose said this was not necessary to do anymore, for me he was right. But for some devices you may need to raise or lower voltage..

you are talking about lockscreen notification pocket mode right?

[G2 Original Android Development] TITANote2LTE:
Hey guys so here's one, if using a secure lock screen (be it pin or pattern) along with slider shortcuts, the phone isn't unlocking to the desired slider shortcut until I enter the pattern a second time or enter another character in the pin then hit backspace. Odd characteristics, and not a biggie to me at all, but has anyone else experienced this?

Is there an official q & a forum for mahdi ROM?

experiencing my first freeze. its about 64% received an email and there it froze. not stuck just gave it about 10 seconds and it came. too. other than that no problems at all. so far over 2 hours of screen on time. im very much loving it. still having echo issues only with my wife(shes on ATT also.) it seems more of a carrier issue. every other call is perfectly clear. also love that the speakers dont sound like its gonna blow like cm11.

this rom is great work. thank you for this

I experienced a reboot after pairing and connecting with a bluetooth speaker and starting up the youtube app.

ROM : Mahdi release 2/11

Kernel : dr87 kernel

Phone : LG G2 D803 (Rogers variant)
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
we have an issue with this across all roms / kernels right now, bt sometimes causes a reboot the cause hasn't been found
[G2 Original Android Development] Orvils:
Tried many roms but this one, definately, is best combination of battery life and customization. Pocket mode works great with vertical flip case. Does not need to double tap or press power. Screen just comes one when I open case. :good:

Btw does it have lockscreen blur?
[G2 Original Android Development] hyperxguy:
Did a clean-flash on VS980. No issues at all after a day.

GPS, BT work great (volume via BT is a little lower than previous releases).

On previous release, I did have some random lags (after a few days running). A few times the phone rebooted when received a TXT (while sleeping).

Streaming via BT (sometimes) reboots the phone. Haven't seen those yet.

Edit: spoke too soon ... just got the 1st SOD while in pocket.

howz the camera quality on this rom? is it still stock CM?

the only thing worries me just the camera quality. if it's on par with stock, then it's worth the change :)

Tired of stock boot animation?

Just for those who dont like the stock boot animation or want something more accustomed to the ROM,i quickly put together this unofficial mahdi rom boot animation :) just put it in /system/media and youre good to go

Hope you like it :)
[G2 Original Android Development] marsisabar:
Thanks for the update. The ROM is really the best one for this phone at the moment.

I wanted to mention that the other issue is still the same with touch/input not registering on certain apps/games like XBMC and Pitfall.
[G2 Original Android Development] zyrtek69:
Anyone know how I can fix this.

I did a clean install of mahdi 2/11 build. Was running smooth, but now any time I have to hit home my whole launcher has to re render and I get the most random lags that freeze the phone for about 2-3 minutes. I love this ROM and kernel but this is killing me. Thanks I'm advance.

Maybe launcher crashed? I used to use this launcher called themed and it would crash. Took 10 to 30 seconds to respond in any way. Even hardware buttons didn't do anything for a few secs. I'm going to guess e-mail counter might be the culprit since you mentioned that's when it crashed.
[G2 Original Android Development] :
Using nova launcher prime and that never happee before. Guessing it has to do with email
[G2 Original Android Development] benjmiester:
I would try disabling the unread counters for icons. I know nova has the ability to do them. Could be that. I'm using KK launcher with out any problems in 2 days, it supports missed call and missed text counters. For me I love the gesture support so I can bind double tap->open app-> screen off for the stock knock off feel.

- I've reduced the nav bar size with GravityBox and now my wallpaper is no more displayed correctly. Is there a workaround ? (I'm using Apex)

I tired that and it wouldnt flash I had to swap out the updater scripted and updater binery files from houston's pa build and swap the disk.IMG file but I'll try with the new build just flashing and d703 kernel thanks for getting back to me so soon
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
titanium itself will be the source of the lag, I've noticed on almost all kitkat roms titanium does this I'm trying to figure out the root of the problem

Reboot the phone and don't open tb, tell me what happens
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
swapping updater script will break the rom badly

Someone had pmed me about 803 and I told them to swap the kernel. They got back to me and said it worked perfectly, it may be the recovery you are running

Next build im going to just add the 803 download link to make this easier
[G2 Original Android Development] jaynkc:
Ya I'm using twrp latest build and I clean flash everything so awopping files is no big deal although just flash again and then flashed ayysirs v5.2 d803 kernel and all is working great thanks for the build and work!!!
[G2 Original Android Development] chakra:
So I did as you asked and it did seem a bit faster.

I decided to uninstall it, but then while going through the apps list, I decided to uninstall trickster mod instead since your rom already does that, and that seemed to make a relatively big diff?
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
To me, having TB on the phone doesn't cause the lag. However when you interact with any app in TB this is when the crazy lag starts until you reboot. I only uninstall an app with TB if I'm able to restart my phone. (Trickster always working fine for me)

I went through several roms to test for this and it happened on each rom kitkat rom, generally on the first uninstall. I would love to figure out what causes this because it drives me crazy but since it leaves no trace on logcat it's much harder to figure out.

Edit: also the same thing happens to me when I start up bluetooth on every kitkat rom also. I was wondering if anyone else had this problem or maybe my bluetooth chip is physically messed up
[G2 Original Android Development] chakra:
Is this your first rom? I only ask because your post count is so low? I am used to seeing devs with thousands....

Oh and can you add the app security options like PA has?

Happy New Year [MENTION=5232783]dr87[/MENTION] and android community!

The customizations and smoothness of this ROM/kernel combination are awesome. I'm assuming this is AOSP based and not built from CM. That being said, is there any way to incorporate CM's Voice+ into this? I use Google Voice exclusively and have carrier based texting disabled. This was never an issue until Kit Kat changed how SMS is handled and now I can't text anyone from the people app because I can only choose Messaging or Hangouts. With Voice+, Hangouts works perfectly for texting.

If anyone has any info, I'm willing to work on or help with making such integration possible. Thanks!
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
New to xda, not new to developing. (The rom maker himself would have to add security)

I have been working on old legacy devices for a long time (usually msm7x30 boards) this is my first up to date phone that I've worked on. Most of those old phones don't even have an xda section because they have no dev support and a small community so all my work was done on androidforums

The msm8974 board is much different and I'm still getting used to it :good:
