Genius, that's it :p Now I feel dumb :eek:

But did we always have to do that? I don't recall doing that before. But thanks a lot anyways :)
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
there were updates about 8 hours ago across the mahdi repo but the changes weren't posted yet

those screen power off / on lag downs aren't due to the kernel or rom, pretty sure we figured out why they are occurring tonight, will do more testing in the morning to confirm
[G2 Original Android Development] nobnut:
It's been like that for a while. At least on my Nexus 5.
[G2 Original Android Development] dlt0rre:
Thanks for your answer!

Will be awesome this rom without these lag down (anyway this happens very rarely). Thanks again!
[G2 Original Android Development] herbertzzz:
Build 30/1.....cool!!

Thank´s mate.

Is it necessary to flash new Patch?...or are these the same as for last build?
[G2 Original Android Development] dlt0rre:
I just noticed that the physical volume buttons work in reverse with the phone in landscape mode :(
[G2 Original Android Development] murdoch1:
Volume Adjust

Just a shout out that the volume when playing music via google play/deezer does not work on todays build (30/1) so therefore plays at full blast. I had the furnace kernel installed which worked like a dream on the 28/1/ build.Luckily I wasnt listening to the Nolan Sisters...LOL. How very embarrasing that could have been. :victory: Ive gone back to 28/1 version for now
[G2 Original Android Development] cheami:
Yeah. And there's no option for it, as I think I've looked everywhere.
[G2 Original Android Development] borkan:
The odd part with the volume on landscape is that it will always match up with volume slider that shows up on the screen. I think it might actually be a feature. I didn't check with the stock rom to see if it does it as well.
[G2 Original Android Development] JRJ442:
Yeah I'm almost certain that's a feature too. In some ROMs that's an option, to reverse the functions of the volume buttons when in landscape. I think its just enabled by default. Makes more sense really.
[G2 Original Android Development] nobnut:
It's pretty common across Android devices (not universal, but common).

On other news, dsmitty is currently testing Multi Window on the N5 build :)
[G2 Original Android Development] NateK:
The new 1/30 build for VS980 now shows "Verizon" for the network instead of "Preferred Network" :good:
[G2 Original Android Development] Jjday7:
Any change log for 1/30? I haven't had any issues with this rom on d801 so I am wondering if the update is necessary for all phones. Just wondering if there is a fix I missed.
[G2 Original Android Development] jermaine151:
From OP:
[G2 Original Android Development] Jjday7:
That looks to be 1/27.
[G2 Original Android Development] Little Bigboy:
There seems to be a bug in the screen on time. My screen on time has been stuck on 2 hrs since last night. Tried a reboot a didn't work
[G2 Original Android Development] jermaine151:
Oh. Sorry. I just saw the link there and posted it for you.

NFC Borked in current Build LS980

Seems to be an issue with NFC on the latest 1/30 and 1/28 builds. On 1/28 (Clean Flash) the NFC service wouldn't turn on, flashed 1/30 and the NFC option is grayed out and causing a wakelock. I am currently running 1/28 since it doesn't cause a wake lock at least. Also flashing the latest LS980 Patch for the Rom. Also tried the standard Turn-Off-NFC-Reboot Fix that used to work, still nothing.
[G2 Original Android Development] subhani:
This is my feedback for 18/1 version.

MahdiROM has launched my G2 to new heights. I'm seriously impressed with what my G2 has become now. I was always very satisfied with my device on stock rooted. Mostly for its hardware capabilities such as the battery life, camera, quick remote and FM radio.

But running mahdi ROM has reminded me what it used to be like on my nexus 4. So much smoother now than stock, so much more responsive, better multi tasking as more apps stay in RAM. With xposed modules like Tinted Status Bar, all apps look really beautiful too, making android better looking IMO than even iOS. IOS was overkill and most apps don't even theme properly.

Issues that I can report that could be useful to the dev are following:

Charging takes forever. Several hours overnight only. Factory charger and 2A charger.

File transfer from PC to phone also takes forever. I waited over three hours to transfer a thousand wallpapers to my phone.

Play services error every reboot/date/time error too.

No native 'knock on' in GEL.

No LG camera. Side loaded Lg camera has one or two bugs.

No FM radio functionality.

VERY RARELY... there is random slowdown and lag in all animations/scrolling... so force closing system UI and android system helps resolve this. It has produced a reboot once yesterday and once today.

I'm concerned about users reporting 'micro lag' on subsequent releases so I will hold off until newer releases address it. I'm sorry for the longest post evaaar!
[G2 Original Android Development] :
yeah other then microlag, camera quality, volume for me there isnt anything to report, its a great job by dr87 very great job.

I dont play games nor use bluetooth, nfc. Havent had the opportunity to gps my way yet.
[G2 Original Android Development] _Infamous_:
Yea it's a great Rom and your right camera quality is horrible

Adb reboot recovery
[G2 Original Android Development] Chrisace89:
Is there any link on how to do that? I have never used ADB.
[G2 Original Android Development] subhani:
Try and flash a new recovery from freegee app. Then download superuser
[G2 Original Android Development] Chrisace89:
Freegee requires root to use. I am trying to get root back.
[G2 Original Android Development] subhani:
My bad. I thought you were just trying to get into recovery. Sowwy.
[G2 Original Android Development] zhiwlin:
I use ioroot. Seems to be pretty good.

ioroot
[G2 Original Android Development] anurbanlegend:
Turn your phone off. Hold down power and volume down button together, when LG screen comes on let them go, then press them again immediately and hold them. It will ask if you want to reset your phone, click the power button twice and you will be in recovery.

After you get into recovery flash the SU linked in the OP.
[G2 Original Android Development] Yamahar6riding:
Download the chainfire super su zip to flash in recovery. Then power off Your phone with It unplugged. Next press And hold volume down and the power button simultaneously until the lg logo shows on the screen, then release And immediately press them both again simultaneously. Keep holding and a white screen asking You to factory reset will appear, power button twice to confirm, it will not reset, it will take you to twrp or cwm, which ever you have installed. Then flash super su, don't wipe anything G, reboot and enjoy
[G2 Original Android Development] kooldre:
The freegee stop working on mines.. Not supported device. the device name is just g2 though previously i had it working on stock and installed my custom boot img.

What could cause this issue though its the same device just a different ROM, could it be the labelling for the device?
[G2 Original Android Development] subhani:
Unbelievable, it used to work on mine too. Says the same thing to me now.
[G2 Original Android Development] Chrisace89:
Thank you this worked.
[G2 Original Android Development] WCM3:
Not sure if this is the appropriate thread, but has anyone come over here from PA? Anything different except the many customizations?
[G2 Original Android Development] Lawlrus:
Hold power button and volume down till it reboots. As soon as it vibraes release the keys and hold them again. Once the lg logo comes up release them and hold them a third time. It will take you to the factory reset page. Hit the power button a few times and it will take you into your recovery

Same Problem in 30th build like in the one fron 28th.

Cannot set LTE in network settings, always goes back to global.

802 and clean flash of course
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
The network settings are stock again like every other aosp rom

Strange last build my network went to global by default. After I changed the default back in source, it defaults and stays on LTE

What problems is this causing? Did this always happen?
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
Looks like another build was pushed, going to rebuild now... this is why one rom is so convenient ;)
[G2 Original Android Development] horst0815:
I was trying to put LTE as default, but no matter what I do, it's always global again when I take a look in the settings.

Didn't happen in the build of 18th January (guess it was that date, not 100% sure though).

It's always changing to global on 28th and on 30th build. Both time clean flash :confused:
[G2 Original Android Development] subhani:
I'm downloading the 30/1 right now
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
well, it is a global phone :)

is this breaking your LTE or causing any issues?
[G2 Original Android Development] horst0815:
;)

looks like it's not getting LTE signal where I used to have LTE...

will have to look into that "issue" tomorrow, gotta go now

thx for all your efforts mate :good:
[G2 Original Android Development] DalSegno:
Hi guys, I have having trouble installing the newest ROM and in fact any other new ROM (although the older Mahdi ROM works fine).

When installing I get an error, something about set_metadata_recursive some errors, then it says it failed to installer script.

Only thing to note is that my phone is a d803 and all the Roms appear to recognize it as a d801. I also tried the d801 and d803 version of the Beanstalk ROM, both failed. I have tried reinstalling twrp 2.6.3.2, same issues.
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
you need to update your recovery :good:
[G2 Original Android Development] subhani:
Dr87, what's the best gapps to use on d802?
[G2 Original Android Development] DalSegno:
What's the most recent? 2.6.3.2 seems to be what you get from twrp's website.
[G2 Original Android Development] s--c:
damn another build already dr87 :p.. is OTA updates going to work?
[G2 Original Android Development] Moose0704:
WEBSITE

Check it out everyone! ;)

MAHDI-ROM WEBSITE
[G2 Original Android Development] NateK:
Does that have the new build dr87 was talking about or the same one from earlier today?
[G2 Original Android Development] Moose0704:
Same one for now, new build coming soon, but new will be posted to this site ;)
[G2 Original Android Development] s--c:
ah brilliant. downloading now.. guess your back from holiday. hope all was well.
[G2 Original Android Development] Lawlrus:
They are different for every device. The vs980 has 2.6.3.3 and 2.6.3.4. I know one device has a 2.6.3.5. But check the official twrp page, or your devices forum. If all else fails use Google to see if you can dig up a newer version.

2.6.3.3 and beyond will flash all 4.4 Roms np

[G2 Original Android Development] alucard8888:

[G2 Original Android Development] Ejames991:
just flashed new build... after boot i received "unfortunately, setupd wizard has stopped" and aosp keyboard fc is this just me?
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
Most likely didn't wipe something
[G2 Original Android Development] Ejames991:
complete full wipe! other than internal ofc ill wipe and try again though
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
Also, you flashed Gapps?
[G2 Original Android Development] Ejames991:
yeah i used banks core gapps? or is there a better choice?
[G2 Original Android Development] heffzilla:
Apparently I'm the only one who can't access the website. Anyone else having problems? Tried Chrome, aosp browser and dolphin.

A friend checked and it works from a pc, must just be mobile that doesn't.
[G2 Original Android Development] Ejames991:
wiped everything again and still got the same errors?
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
can you try this

[G2 Original Android Development] nitsua98:
[MENTION=5232783]dr87[/MENTION], do you build with all the bionic patches and dalvik patches?
[G2 Original Android Development] StefanW13:
Think about to go to mahdi from PacMan 4.3 now.

Short question, is dt2w working with last build (31/01)?

Thanks in advance for info and for the rom! Great work, like i see on my N4
[G2 Original Android Development] GetPatriotized:
Only shows 1/30
[G2 Original Android Development] tnosz:
Does anyone know if the in call volume been fixed on 1/30?

I would be so soo happy if this build fixes the micro lags and the in call volume.

That's the one that comes with the rom. U can find it under settings and performance
[G2 Original Android Development] DurbanPoison24:
ROM is surprisingly stable mostly everything seems to work.. Haven't tried gps yes so idk about that but the only things I've noticed that bother me so far is the speaker quality.. It seems as if they tried to boost its sound because I hear more bass out of it but with that comes the crackling hear and there and quite frankly I'm a bit worried this will damage my speakers.. Also as with EVERY other KitKat ROM there seems to be a bit of a video playback issue.. If I'm watching videos through Chrome it force closes every now and then.. A bit annoying but besides those two issues I actually enjoy this ROM and haven't gone back to stock ROM surprisingly.. Not going to lie I surprised myself in the fact that I enjoy all the bells and whistles in the stock ROM so I've always gone back to it but I actually enjoy the fact this ROM is stable enough for me to give Stock LG ROM some time off.
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
yea the audio issues are a WIP across all roms, we haven't gotten it back to stock yet but using viper audio actually helps a lot

I actually have the speaker at a decently low volume but bass will crack the speaker no matter what. It shouldn't be damaging since its not very loud.

Glad you like it

Other issue is as with EVERY other KitKat ROM there seems to be a bit of a video playback issue.. If I'm watching videos through Chrome it force closes every now and then.. And lastly that ive noticed at least is that when using the keyboard and you go into landscape mode it doesn't stretch out all the way.. A bit annoying but besides those issues I actually enjoy this ROM and haven't gone back to stock ROM surprisingly.. Not going to lie I surprised myself in the fact that I enjoy all the bells and whistles in the stock ROM so I've always gone back to it but I actually enjoy the fact this ROM is stable enough for me to give Stock LG ROM some time off.

Viper audio? Also any fixes with the keyboard in landscape mode? And excuse my other post that essentially is the same exact post I double posted it.. Lol. Other than that great ROM first KitKat ROM I can enjoy.
[G2 Original Android Development] nitsua98:
Dr, don't know if you saw my post, but I was wondering, do you build with all the bionic patches and dalvik patches? I'm currently on 1/28 and I wanted to flash the patches but I didn't want to flash the bionic or dalvik if this has a better or newer version.
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
I don't build with them, I did for a awhile but when I build a rom I need to be absolutely sure nothing else can cause issues, which is why I build with stock dalvik / kernel.

I believe they do work on this rom though so go ahead and try it just make sure to backup.
[G2 Original Android Development] Ejames991:
is there anyway to get Dark UI on this? kinda like DarkCandy.. that would be sick
[G2 Original Android Development] ANTLAY:
How are supposed to configure viper to help with audio?
[G2 Original Android Development] markrulesallnow:
open it and turn it on.

FC's all over the place on 1/31 vs980, clean install.

keyguard and systemui
[G2 Original Android Development] jlee08517:
Just installed the newest one. I've been flashing dirty for awhile. And pocket mode does work now.
[G2 Original Android Development] philsfan:
are you on vs980? i had constant FC's upon boot up. maybe it was a bad download
[G2 Original Android Development] jlee08517:
Yup I got Verizon. After first 2 min it's running buttery smooth. No fc
[G2 Original Android Development] philsfan:
i'm so confused. i did a fresh download and flash and again same thing. tried flashing without any GAPPS to see if that was the issue, same thing.

damn this is frustrating!
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
Which gapps are you using I heard someone else was Fc'ing with banks and the latest build
[G2 Original Android Development] jlee08517:
Did u flash the patch?
[G2 Original Android Development] hyperxguy:
may not be a bad download ... I've seen this issue on&off on certain releases (last 0128 build too).

Don't unlock too quick after reboot ... give it some time to set in --> then everything is fine afterward.
[G2 Original Android Development] philsfan:
using PA full modular 1/23...

so, something interesting. wiped and flashed again, without GAPPS. got a keyguard FC, but after closing it a few times the FC's stopped. rebooted into recovery and then flashed GAPPS....all seems to be working now....

any ideas Dr?? lol
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
not really sure yet, seems to effect a very small amount of people so far
[G2 Original Android Development] Dene_Bluesman:
Same on the D803, doesnt make it to the lock screen. boots fine without flashing gapps. so i did it after the first boot. seems fine now
[G2 Original Android Development] ANTLAY:
Same here, immediately force closing on bboot. Ill try again without gapps
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
On my end nothing was changed, but in the mahdi sync he changed a lot of stuff so I can't be 100% sure yet, going to check the N5 forums
[G2 Original Android Development] lowlife546:
it happened to me too on d801. flashing gapps after first boot worked for me also though
[G2 Original Android Development] ipandroid:
Same here... Clean install on D803... FC..... However restored back to 1/18 backup., then dirty flash 1/31.... Everything is running smoothly.......
[G2 Original Android Development] revolt1:
Besides that app how do I get the preferred network back to normal or have option to change
[G2 Original Android Development] razrlover:
**D801 with patch 1/31 build. "Systemui.process* force close at Google signin screen. Can't get past. Cleaned everything and tried 2 different gap packages. Sorry Dr.

Hi, could anybody tell if dt2w works with the latest build (31/01) please? Thanks in advance!
[G2 Original Android Development] JRJ442:
Yes it seems to work pretty well.
[G2 Original Android Development] StefanW13:
Thanks, i`m going to give it a try now. Currently i`m on PacMan 4.3 and i have reboots now and then. Hope to sort it out with Mahdi-Rom!

It works stable on my N4 for and i`m pretty happy with it, despite the fact that i miss the tablet mode in Setting e.g.. Any tipp how i can get it back in mahdi too?

Btw: Thanks to mahdi and dr87 for this rom!
[G2 Original Android Development] JRJ442:
Usually you can force any application in tablet mode with Xposed and the app settings module. I haven't tried it on this phone so I'm not sure exactly what DPI you need to set the Settings.apk so it may take some playing around with to get perfect.
[G2 Original Android Development] StefanW13:
Thanks a lot, will give it a try after install the rom.

One last Question, i`ve made a nandroid backup from my old rom with twrp 2.6.3.3 is it enough to backup data / boot / system to go back to old rom eventually?
[G2 Original Android Development] JRJ442:
It wouldn't hurt to select efs backup too. You probably will never really need that backed up, but its safer to have it just in case the imei/efs info is somehow borked during a flash. If you have any questions about Xposed or App Settings feel free to PM me tomorrow
[G2 Original Android Development] StefanW13:
Thanks a lot JRJ442! :good: :o

First i will try it out myself. Love it to try out new things by myself, and you help me enough with your fast answers here! :)

If everything goes wrong i come back to your offer.

---------- Post added at 08:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:22 AM ----------

Ok first try and after reboot only systemui FCs.

How i install (using twrp 2.6.3.3):

1st fullwipe

rom

D802 patch

supersu

pa_gapps-stock-4.4.2-20131230-signed.zip

wipe cache / dalvik

reboot and FC loop of system UI comes up

Now retrying with pa_gapps-modular-full-4.4.2-20140123a-signed.zip, despite that any suggestions?

EDIT:

Same problem with modular gapps

Also try to install just rom, patch, supersu

On both trys same problem here.

Last try without installing supersu

EDIT2:

Same problem without installing supersu

i`m back on PacMan for the moment till i found a solution / advice how to get it work.
[G2 Original Android Development] herbertzzz:
v1/31: I flashed current version (dirty) and everything was working well for the first 30 Minutes, but suddenly I had bad issues (freeces, FCs) after a simple reboot.

I found out, that SuperSU lost update during reboot. Installing update-patch again solved all problems

:good: Everything is working well now on D802. Thx a lot.
