Wireless charging worked perfectly for me last night. Clean flash after first flashing xdabbeb's bootstack+rom.

Using the circle w/ percent icon (if that matters to you).
[G2 Original Android Development] TDSJR:
The instructions for installing the Beta builds DOES NOT include the part about flashing SU for root, as does the OP, so I have not been. I haven't had any issues, and am curious if I'm getting lucky or if this is no longer a concern. I've only notice on this build, that SU is baked in, was it there before? I always used the PlayStore app.

Thanks
[G2 Original Android Development] chrisexv6:
Most of the time, lack of root issues have shown up when flashing a custom kernel on top of a ROM. Since there is no custom kernel available for this ROM (or if there is, we dont install it), the root issues shouldnt occur.

I run the built in SU all the time, unless I install a custom kernel at which time I add in the ChainFire SU zip.

Wonder why I still have WiFi usage when its off.
[G2 Original Android Development] simon_lefisch:
So I tried my usb-otg cable on my vs980 running beta 2/v5 patch and my thumb drive won't mount. Does anyone else have the same bug? Not too big a deal as it mounts in recovery, just curious if its the same for other peeps.

[MENTION=5232783]dr87[/MENTION], gotta say this ROM is damn near perfect. Thanks for your time in getting a working AOSP ROM. Donation coming soon ??
[G2 Original Android Development] Orvils:
Turn off "Scanning always available" in WiFi advanced settings.
[G2 Original Android Development] tnosz:
That worked! Ty

[G2 Original Android Development] MrShickadance9:
Downloaded tweakker but couldn't get it to work. Will try again when I get home in the evening. Do you happen to have a link to the latest beta? For some reason (maybe because i'm stupid..ha) i can't seem to find it... Sigh.

Thanks again for your help!
[G2 Original Android Development] thackoon:
Definitely give it another try. I am still on the 4/13 build and have the same problem. Tweakker is the solution. You don't even need to reboot after restoring APN settings to default. The only annoyance is that you need to be connected to wifi for Tweakker to work. Wish I knew of another way to access APN settings.
[G2 Original Android Development] MrShickadance9:
Thanks. Will have to try it again. Just stepped into the elevator at work and lost data again. UGH. Now I need to re-flash yet again. Did a version prior to 4/13 have this same problem? Getting tired of flashing/restoring :(
[G2 Original Android Development] NateK:
I do miss having access to dr87's AOSP v7 kernel I was using, but the stability on the beta on VS980 is amazing!
[G2 Original Android Development] ripbabey:
Does anyone know why my auto rotate is not working along with having very low cell reception. I followed all instructions, flashed the d801 patch along with a couple other kk modems. Would appreciate any help
[G2 Original Android Development] maximus20895:
Did you flash a stock ROM first?
[G2 Original Android Development] TDSJR:
+1 :(
[G2 Original Android Development] ripbabey:
Yeah I was on a stock one, you have a recommendation on one to try flashing over?
[G2 Original Android Development] Raagh:
FULL WIPE

Flash stock rom 4.4

Flash kitkat baseband

boot once

FULL WIPE

Flash mahdi

flash Patch

flash Gapps

dont flash kitkat baseband again or it ll be like starting over. when you boot stock rom, stock configures the sensors in baseband.
[G2 Original Android Development] ripbabey:
Ahhh OK, I kept doing it all after a full wipe and than booting! I'll try that thanks!

vs980

Everything seems to work very well on 20140105 release except for one thing:

When I'm on a phone call with the phone over my ear, I keep hearing every few seconds the sound of the screen turning on and off really quick. And afterwards, it seems like my proximity sensor doesn't work until I actually hit the physical power button.

Anyone else run into this on the vs980 or perhaps any other variant(s)?

[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
I know for a fact the new mixer file from the Korean 4.4 update is causing audio issues which could possibly cause crashes. Reverting this in the next build which should be very soon to narrow down some issues
[G2 Original Android Development] DaveHTC200:
Not that I can see, but I'm on the D802 and I think it's a kernel thing, as I lose it if I flash a different one.

[G2 Original Android Development] DaveHTC200:
Yes, I am :)
[G2 Original Android Development] chrisexv6:
While I concur, the betas are running so nicely I dont really feel the need to muck with anything.

But I can only imagine how killer the phone will be once dr's custom kernel is brought up to LG 4.4.2 source.
[G2 Original Android Development] Sindroid:
What the hell did i do wrong. Flashed this rom and it booted straight to fastboot. Can´t access recovery anymore. Can´t restore my phone with flash tool.. My phone has become a paperweight.
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
The beta's are using my custom simple kernel so it is not stock

Just doesn't have the features of my v7 since this is a different kind of kernel :good:
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
Can't access recovery or don't know how to correctly access recovery? In 99% of cases I've seen people just don't know how to correctly access recovery. Ill send you a pm
[G2 Original Android Development] chrisexv6:
Thanks for the schooling :)

Honestly I always ran your custom kernel, but never really tweaked much. It was nice everything there but it was pretty overkill for me.

Simple kernel might be "just right" after all!
[G2 Original Android Development] Raagh:
simple kernel is running awesome, i hope you never change it :)

[MENTION=5232783]dr87[/MENTION], I have narrowed down my issue with Beta2 on D806, the thing is the audio in-call: the other party can listen his own voice on his speaker... is that what is here commonly referred as 'echo' ? Or can it be something else?

BTW, I made several calls with other apps like Skype, or VoIP, and it doesn't happen... just with GSM calls...

Any ideas?
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
Yea this is an issue that just has been coming back every little audio change since the start of G2 aosp. Going from 4.2 to 4.4 changed a lot of audio stuff so I knew it would be back (houstonn having the same problem on PA beta) I made a few changes to the audio and hopefully its gone, but we will see.

Review for Beta 2 on the D800 is up

I posted my review of things so far with Beta 2 on the LG G2 D800

http://youtu.be/mBZJOibKRuE
[G2 Original Android Development] Sindroid:
I spent the whole afternoon and evening trying to resurrect my G2. Trying to use LG tool offline to restore it to stock but just failed halfway through. After hours of trying, I decided to give another computer a go. Same thing there.

Then I wanted to try one last thing. I booted up LG recovery tool straight up without offline fix and selected "update recovery" just for the hell of it. It downloaded and updated in a course of 15 min. Suddenly the sucker just booted and the thing had restored to stock. I have no idea how that was possible since it never succeeded the restore process anyway. Strange how this gadget works.

To answer your question:

1. I was on Cloudy Flex 2.1

2. I decided to Formatted my phone in TWRP

3. Adb sideloaded Mahdi Rom.

4. Booted to fastboot and remained there.

5. Problems...

6. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

7. Profit.

Now you may enlighten me what I did wrong here. Dunno, did I need to flash 4.4.2 firmware again since I formated? I don't know.

[G2 Original Android Development] cheami:
Like always, devs listen to the highly vocal (that are the small majority of its user base) and react upon that. So full of themselves that they need to get the last word in, such as this action.

Devs need to realize there are a lot of bad apples but to ignore them, as they are the casual users that are not as important. Very few devs are not beta *****es.
[G2 Original Android Development] C.Hatfield:
Thank you so much for your hard work and your tireless efforts to attack & solve problems to make this device the best it can be!!!

Your suggestion doesn't even make sense. [MENTION=4290160]Little Bigboy[/MENTION] check that you enabled equaliser for headset if u are using headset or speaker if u are using speaker and also check that u enabled equaliser not dynamic range compression or bass boost as u may have mixed it up. Equaliser is the third check box not the first nor second.

[G2 Original Android Development] charlie95113:
Other users seem to have a great ROM ...when I dial my screen goes black then I get a FC nfc is borked no sound at all and I've been following this thread good on point with exact instructions.. And I'm not new to flashing or bricking but like I said it seems to only be me.. Other ls980 users are OK. When I rooted this device I was already on kitkat ZVC update I used ioroot25 then autorec for recovery. Unless I'm doing something wrong.. I've flashed kkmodem for ls989 then beta 2 followed by patch v5 and fixed attempt patches and stays the same for me

---------- Post added at 08:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:46 AM ----------

My build also keeps saying its a d802 but its not ...But I'll assure you once this beta 3 is out I will retry again.
[G2 Original Android Development] OfficialPerson:
I feel ya I really screwed it up somehow when I installed beta 1 my efs/imei was wiped out no service I was able to recover but it seems I was the only one who had that problem. I followed all the steps as it said but maybe it had something to do with other files I had or something idk but please let me know how beta 3 works out for you.
[G2 Original Android Development] charlie95113:
I believe ioroot 25 automatically backs them up for you so if you go back to that it might help.. That's why im so eager for this.. Mahdi is too dope... The one thing I haven't tried is going back to a kitkatrom... Simply because we don't have one yet for our device that won't complicate things the moment team derp releases there's I will flash then flash kkmodem boot up once then recovery and wipe again flash mahdi then patch and SUzip.. I believe that's my issue I read through the past 60 pages and a few users it seems that's a fix for them so until derp kk is out I can only be sure...
[G2 Original Android Development] manigault:
I use to think this also, but not anymore. I post when I donate to encourage more people to do so because I GUARANTEE only a tiny percentage of people that use custom roms give back. There's some argument for not giving back, however, also as it relates to the whole spirit of open source.

Bottom line, though, is 2 things : 1) are we going to throw some money at apps but not the most important part of our devices? And 2) these folks put in the time so, personally, I think they should get thanks and a little something extra.

Another question.

The compass doesn't work.

Is there a tips to get it working?
[G2 Original Android Development] Gutsyslap1:
Are you on beta 2? I know when you flash the stock ROM on the vs980 you have to make sure GPS grabs a good signal before flashing back otherwise you're SOL.
[G2 Original Android Development] -JFK-:
The GPS work but not the compass.

I'm on a fresh installation of Mahdi last version.

Thanks
[G2 Original Android Development] Gutsyslap1:
Not sure on that to be honest. It may have been mentioned in previous posts so make sure you do a search in here and your variants threads. What variant do you have? Just so if somebody can chime in they know which device.
[G2 Original Android Development] -JFK-:
I have a d802.
[G2 Original Android Development] Krsnik:
I too have a D802 and compass is working for me (just tested it with a dedicated app, not using it very often).

I flashed a 20c stock rom, booted once and then clean flashed mahdi.

The only problem I have with beta 2 is the echo, everything else I tested is working fine so I'm anxiously waiting for beta 3 :).

Running VS980 and flashed beta 2 last night. Everything works flawlessly, but I can't get any sound from my phone. Notifications, apps, nothing. When I try to play music using google music, I get DSP Manager has stopped.

Would really like to avoid re-flashing if I can. Any thoughts?
[G2 Original Android Development] JRJ442:
[MENTION=5302963]DjTony90[/MENTION] The gray boxes usually comes from older videos in the gallery. Delete those, reboot and it should be fine. Never had mine force close though. What was your ROM install procedure, did you format the system too before you flashed the ROM?

---------- Post added at 03:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:13 PM ----------

I always delete DSP Manager and use Viper4android. So much better. You could try that maybe
[G2 Original Android Development] DjTony90:

[G2 Original Android Development] JRJ442:
Well any videos you may have recorded. I had some videos I downloaded from YouTube and they were causing the gray boxes, quite a bit. Once you delete the old ones, the boxes should go away. New videos don't seem to cause it so any you record from now on should be fine
[G2 Original Android Development] chrisexv6:
Oh noes! Had a random reboot.

Attached is a syslog dump of all the logs after the phone was done rebooting.

All I did was pick it up, pocket mode didnt engage (it was dark, 2AM), double tapped the screen to wake it up, checked for any notifications and then put the phone back down. Then heard the vibration and noticed it was rebooting.

VS980, beta2, patch v5 (I *think*....is there any way to be sure about the patch version?)

Hopefully just a fluke but figured Id throw it out there.
