Not using common sense because they are flashing/switching to art/doing whatever when the phone is too hot.

"I've moved onto a different kernel" how does that help this ROM or community? Whatever happened to people trying to find answers? What ever happened to getting logs?

Not a single one of these "few people" have given a reboot log. I'm not having issues on my vs980. Dr87 isn't havig an issue on his T-Mobile, how can "devs work on the issue" when no one is trying to help themselves to get help?

I was not the one whom suggested raiding your freezer, not sure why you're directing that last bit at me.

Unless you are using GPS or something and that's what is generating the heat causing these supposed reboots, you can take steps to make them not happen. I was playing a game, while charging this thing, and the CPU was around 60-70c and no reboot, or stutter.

I had some problems with the latest 10/27 build. Radio cutting out and random reboots and a reboot overheat death loop.

Flashed latest furnace 2.5.1 kernel and everything was resolved. ROM is working like it should now.
[G2 Original Android Development] Lawlrus:
You need to get into recovery to use adb.

Turn the phone completely off.

Turn it on by using the power button with vol down.

When the lg splash screen shows up, release the buttons then hold them again.

You will be prompted to hit the power key two times.

Do so and it will land you in recovery.

I may have taken your report to assume you meant that no one had issues at all. Not just for that specific scenario. You are right, moving to a new kernel doesn't help the dev community. I have been known to upload logs in the past for the good of the group, however I don't expect anything to be resolved for doing so. The comments about the freezer were not necessarily directed at you, but at numerous posts which users have stated they place their phone in a cold area to keep it up and running during install. To me, thats not a resolution either. If moving to render kernel works for me, it may work for others who have the heat problems. It could indicate a problem with the stock kernel, or maybe not. I have the same issue with furnace kernel if it helps the group. Wasn't trying to attack anyone, and apologize if it came across that way.
[G2 Original Android Development] daut:
ups sori, now working..

my bad.. I think my phone is brick. my hand it stupid I guess.. LOL

Now I can enter my recovery.

ready to flash again

thanks alot

Dr87 stated he'd release a build to fix any potential bugs, but with each phone having different hardware, logs are a must.

The kernel hasn't changed, so issues as this shouldn't just arise out of no where, I will agree that Mahdi's kernel does typically run warmer for me then other kernels, but I have never had a build put out by dr87 that made me get reboots due to the kernel getting too warm. If there was an issue, why are there only a few people reporting them?

This is one of the more popular ROMs so there should be a much higher rate of issues, i would think.

That leads me to believe its a hardware issue, or something that people themselves are doing. (Playing graphic intensive games while the phone is hot, or running antu to get a few more inches of epeen)

Not all phones, mobos, chips are the same. It may not be something that can be fixed.

I got into boot loop (while enabling ART). And I also happend to delete the ROM files from my phone. As this phone doesnt have external sdcard slot, and I have mac,

what are my options to recover/reflash my phone ?

I am using TWRP recovery, and I dont find option for adb sideload, Any help appreciated
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
I do not support ART and never did. It's an experimental feature in Kitkat and even if it worked in past versions I won't look into fixing it. Please no logs when on ART. Lets try to stop reporting any issues that happen on ART on the current Mahdi, its hard to keep track of what I need to look into fixing. :good:
[G2 Original Android Development] paluinfusion:
Hey no offense. I was not asking of issue of ART to be fixed.

I am saying, because of me trying to switch to ART, phone never got booted (got into LG loop) and All I am asking for is help.

As I dont have any ROM zip files on phone and I have TWRP recovery with mac as my laptop. How do I flash a ROM file from mac thru TWRP.

Thx in advance

[G2 Original Android Development] laofan:
Two days with the 10/27 build, I noticed my device has bad latency/lag when opening apps or pressing software buttons.

All stock and using nova launcher. Same apps I used on 9/20 build.

Not sure if that only happened to my device, but the latency also happened in g3 rom and pa rom on my device.

The 9/20 build of Mahdi is a perfect spot for my device. No lag at all. Same speed as my Nexus 5 .

Oh boy!!

Lollipop source is being pushed AOSP!!!

I wonder if the Dr is working on this already!!

Edit: just realized someone posted this already
[G2 Original Android Development] Kayen:
Yeah and the Mahdi team is done - nothing for the Dr to port.

And he's stated a few pages back he is moving on as well.
[G2 Original Android Development] :
As I stated earlier, dr87 has stated he is moving on, as Mahdi-Rom is no more. This means there will be no Android 5.0 Mahdi-Rom, unfortunately.
[G2 Original Android Development] jamesd1085:
I heard something more to the tune of only a few members of the mahdi team are ending developement and the rest of the team will be moving forward under a new name...don't know how much of this is true but one can only be hopeful
[G2 Original Android Development] :
Even so, with dr87 gone, you'd still need a device maintainer and need to wait for ROMs to move to Lollipop source. I might consider building if this is true.
[G2 Original Android Development] jamesd1085:
I don't think dr87 is going anywhere...he isn't building mahdi 5.0 because it wont exist...but if a good team builds something similar he may do the same for us...it seems he likes to bring quality to the g2 and i think it deserves it as this device is still at 1+ years old keeping up with or beating most new devices
[G2 Original Android Development] UrbanBounca:
He's already said he will no longer support any device with different variants. Honestly, I wouldn't blame him for not coming back to the G2.

[G2 Original Android Development] Kayen:
Just as said above. Mahdi team is dissolving, but i'm hoping that remaining members do move on to 5.0 under a different label (or same) if that's the case. Mahdi-rom was something i loved in my Nexus 5.

Thanks to [MENTION=5232783]dr87[/MENTION] for all this hard work on this device, and wishing him best of luck on future endeavors.
[G2 Original Android Development] trickyjk1:
So I got the new build installed and I get it running great....until I try to start downloading apps/games. Then I get the bootloop. Should I try to let it sit for a while before downloading stuff?? I've had it running for 15 minutes now with no bootloop but i'm afraid to download anything haha. I love this ROM and am sad to see it drift off into the sunset. But all the best to Dr87 and all the thanks in the world for making the best.
[G2 Original Android Development] tofumachine:
Try render kernel, or another...
[G2 Original Android Development] trickyjk1:
Forgive me ahead of time for a dumb question, but which do you suggest?? I'm fine on the phone until it gets hot, then it reboots until I stick it in the freezer.
[G2 Original Android Development] aaronDroid80:
For the sake of development, what model is your phone? Are you trying to run ART? If not, can you consistently reproduce the problem? If you can, plug in and capture a log through adb. That's the only way that these issues can get fixed.

[G2 Original Android Development] trickyjk1:
Tried that and when it got to the LG Logo, the LED just blinked blue/green over and over and sat there. Went ahead and and factory reset and am throwing CM on there until I can do some reading on it. I'm new at this and dont want to bog the forum down with dumb questions that I'm obviously asking. Thanks for your help!
[G2 Original Android Development] kwdan:
Not dumb question.. Just that developers need more information (which variant,which kernel) and any log that you can submit. The key is the LOGS
[G2 Original Android Development] Lawlrus:
Shouldn't be grabbing logs or reporting issues if not on stock kernel
[G2 Original Android Development] trickyjk1:
Not entirely sure how to get a log....I will figure it out though. I'm on D800. I am not sure what kernel to be honest....I wiped, and flashed like I do when I install a ROM. It was getting hot so I tried R23 after Googl'ing it. But thats when it got me the continuous green/blue LED light at the LG Logo screen. I wish I was up to speed like the rest of you on whats what! You guys make me jealous :o
[G2 Original Android Development] hovanhuang:
I'm on r23 and d800. Doesn't have those problem. For the clean install, always boot from dr87s s3 patch. Then titanium restore. Then flash kernel. Then art.

Try blackbird 10/16 kernel if still have problem.

Which custom kernels are available for latest mahdi ROM?
[G2 Original Android Development] IOmega666:
Great numbers! Maybe i'll try again that combo of Mahdi and Render, i'm with CloudyStock right now 'cause of battery but i really miss the smoothness of AOSP.

Anyhow, what's that theme you're using? Looks slick!
[G2 Original Android Development] paluinfusion:
Holy moly.. On the other hand, I am in opposite boat. Wanted to keep AOSP. But the rate at which battery draining on mehdi.. comapred to cloudy G3

I am thinking of going back to G3. How do u get 6 hrs screen time.

I was getting something similar (@74% after 2+ hours of screen time on previous mehdi build) but not with 10/27

Ya, only thing stopping me from going back is smoothness

Also, is it true the download count of cloudy G3 in 6 digit number ? Do we even have those many LG G2's worldwide ????
[G2 Original Android Development] Lawlrus:
Development threads, how do they work.
[G2 Original Android Development] Kayen:
This. Also hasn't OP requested battery life NOT be discussed at all in this thread.

Also i'm having problems switching into ART, it'll just boot into dalvik again. Oh well ROM flies (10/27 build)even @ underclock & render kernel (r23) on my D803.
[G2 Original Android Development] IOmega666:
I don't think it was discussed, just some user posting about his results and about me i only wanted to know which theme he was using. If anyone kwnows please tell me.

And another thing, maybe i'm asking something stupid but i always flashed Mahdi, then the patch, gapps and when i booted for the first time didn't download anything just rebooted into recovery and flashed Render Kernel, is there a specific way to do this or whenever you may flash it, it's ok?

[G2 Original Android Development] :
Funnier yet, dr said he doesn't officially support ART, so any report involving ART will be ignored. And make sure you don't have Xposed installed, as ART isn't supported for Xposed.
[G2 Original Android Development] Lawlrus:
This thread is a ****show now. Talking about best settings for a stock Rom in a dev thread, for an aosp ROM.

Forum never ceases to amaze me.
[G2 Original Android Development] Kayen:
Yup, already derailed anyways.

It's been said many times the G2 is a fickle beast. I still don't get why LG has to do 6(!!!) variants for the G2. Similarly the N5 has 2 variants (D820/D821) which work pretty much universally (except Verizon of course), but at the same time they count as 1 under roms. I understand why dr's moving on towards N6 - one rom just works.

Getting logs from D801/2/3/6 + VS980 + LS980, there's so much "fragmentation" even under one device it's ridiculous. But adding in from a post by someone awhile back (i forgot where), even the same variants will have the slightest changes in hardware (i.e the debacle between LGD/JDI displays). I can see why development for this device is slowing down on this device big time, and developers aren't too keen on picking it up - even if it were simpler to maintain for this device, I can say that of all my device forums here on XDA, the G2 has got some of the most blatant rule non-abiding, and most entitled people i've ever seen.

I wasn't even complaining about it. It was simply a statement buddy. ART isn't officially supported by any Kitkat builds anyways. There's a *big disclaimer* saying it's not supported when you try and switch to it, so why should I assume any less?

But yes I'm running Android 5.0 and whining about xposed not working. OH CAN I USE XDABEBB ON THIS ROM? NO ?! CAN I USE DORIMANX ON THIS ROM !? NO!?!?! DEV CAN U SUPPORT PLS?! DEV WHEN IS UPDATE TO ANDROID OVER9000!!!?!?!SUPERSAIYAN5 Just kidding.

Waa waa waa WAAAAAA WAAAA. I'm a big crying baby. Does that placate you people?

[G2 Original Android Development] rmsinaga:
Factory reset will do. After that, do not sync to your gmail account.
[G2 Original Android Development] Preggy:
Also wipe Internal Storage after pulling your files off, as that is unaffected by a factory reset from custom recovery. (So essentially in TWRP wipe everything except for system)

(Also use Q&A threads or google for this stuff)

GPS issues

I had this issue too, for some reason it's only with chrome.

However if you open the app from the recent apps list then it will open in full screen. I just switched to Dolphin instead though.

On another note, does anyone have this rom working with GPS on the VS980? I tried the baked in kernel as well as the render kernel and no luck with either.

What I noticed with GPS is that once I turn on GPS and try and use maps is it basically doesn't work at all; constant signal lost. I also noticed a huge drain in battery that I had no idea what to attribute it to but it turns out that google location services were still on when I turned GPS off and were constantly draining the battery.

i think this rom is based on aosp with goodies taken from CM etc.. i forgot to backup my apps - so ill have to install all common apps i would use, ill be staying with this rom, its seems it will receive ota updates, which is a benefit!!.

keep up the good work :)
