Your comment prompted me to look over some settings for the phone. I did not have the incoming call in background checked off. Once I enabled that, my screen lights up now during a call.
[G2 Original Android Development] Gutsyslap1:
Ahhh ok thatll do it. Glad that worked out for you.
[G2 Original Android Development] HotShotAzn:
I flashed back to a rooted stock Verizon ROM and downloaded GPS Status. It has been sitting there, trying to find satellites for awhile. Not finding anything.

Should I find a different stock ROM? This is kind of irritating. GPS was fine up til a few builds ago.
[G2 Original Android Development] Gutsyslap1:
Its been fine for me since I went to xdabebbs stock build. Did the same as you with GPS status and had some issues so I said screw it after about 30 min sitting in my car waiting for it to work and went back to mahdi (clean flashed) and reinstalled GPS Status and had 0 issues after about 3 min of sitting there. VS980 as well.
[G2 Original Android Development] HotShotAzn:
That is actually exactly what I wanted to hear.

Using apps that refresh the GPS.conf file render the whole "go to a stock ROM" theory for some of us. I'm guessing the problem may be an issue with a deploy script in the ROM?

Which GAPPS did you use? Do you reboot into recovery after each flash? I've been doing the following:

1) Wipe everything but Internal Storage

2) Flash Mahdi

3) Reboot into recovery

4) Flash patch

5) Reboot into recovery

6) Flash GAPPS

7) Reboot into device
[G2 Original Android Development] Gutsyslap1:
I've been using the "Google Stock Package" PA Gapps and flash everything in this order:

1. Full advanced wipe everything but Internal Storage

2. Flash Rom

3. Flash Patch

4. Flash Gapps

5. Flash Viper (not relative to this obviously but I use it)

6. Wipe Dalvik (again)

7. Reboot into device

Then set it up all from there.

Is this kernel works on Miui?

I want to try but i'm afraid of get stuck.

Thx
[G2 Original Android Development] HotShotAzn:
Tried your steps and no go. I restored the June 18th nandroid I had and instant GPS lock. I backed up the GPS.conf file and restored my most recent nandroid. Replaced the GPS.conf and opened up GPS Test. Shows 22 In View and 0 In Use.
[G2 Original Android Development] Gutsyslap1:
Sending a PM shortly.
[G2 Original Android Development] Dick Ripple:
I made a very detailed post about how to get gps working using gps status a few pages back. Give that a try before you go flashing other roms and such.
[G2 Original Android Development] HotShotAzn:
I've used GPS Test, GPS Status, Fix GPS, etc with no luck whatsoever. The reality is I have a working backup from June 18th that I will switch to. Battery life on that release was way better anyways.

EDIT:

I decided to uninstall all the GPS "fixing" programs, reboot, and just install GPS Toolbox. Left it on my window sill in my office. ~20 minutes later and I finally get a lock. Wow. Not exactly sure what's going on there.
[G2 Original Android Development] wmatheney:
I just updated to the 7/29 build and tapping twice on the display no longer turns it on (knock knock). Has anyone else experienced this?

I did a complete clean install.

Edit: I have the Sprint LS890.
[G2 Original Android Development] jamesd1085:
You have to enable it in 7-29 under display settings...its disabled by default
[G2 Original Android Development] wmatheney:
I'm sorry I forgot to include that I had already selected it before posting the issue. It didn't fix it. Do you think I should just try reflashing the ROM?
[G2 Original Android Development] jamesd1085:
Can't hurt...but can't say what will work for me will help you as I have T-mo version
[G2 Original Android Development] wmatheney:
I just found that if I tap it exactly 5 times, instead of two, the screen comes on. Is there some config setting I can change to fix this?
[G2 Original Android Development] wokdogol:
coming from optimus rom, full clean install, rom is smooth, no problem here, just want to ask 1 question, drawer shifting from 4x5 to 4x6. how to solve this? :(
[G2 Original Android Development] kwdan:
I'm on the 7/29 build also. I also use a Ls980 variant... I lost knock on once I came to zvc. I flashed 2faced this morning and my knock on/code was working. I was wondering was it a jdi panel issues or kernel issue. I'm going to try Dorimax kernel and see If I can get knock on back. If you get it fixed, post how you did it please.
[G2 Original Android Development] sharkboy0901:
This is how I fixed knock on issues: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2467302
[G2 Original Android Development] wmatheney:
Isn't that for a stock based rom? Or will it work with Mahdi?
[G2 Original Android Development] jamesd1085:
It seems navbar theming issues are fixed in latest cm builds...hopefully coming our way soon
[G2 Original Android Development] bleached45:
Quick question [MENTION=5232783]dr87[/MENTION]: when you had echo issues on g2 audio drivers... Could sound from one of the other mics have been getting sent over the call? Maybe it was echoing because it was sending audio recorded from the top mic (used for active noise reduction).

If not, oh well. Was just brainstorming. I was thinking since there is an audio stutter right now, maybe it was worth looking into.

Thanks.
[G2 Original Android Development] dafank:
does anyone know any twitter account to follow in order to be up to date on madhi announcements? dr87, mahdi accounts?
[G2 Original Android Development] Matze060906:
Look at the official google+ page...
[G2 Original Android Development] cuyperstom:
Just wanted to report that everything works fine now, thank again!

I just let the phone "forget" the connection with the car and then reconnected, making sure I tapped "No" when asking to sync call logs and contacts. I had to press "No" at least 6 times though, it kept popping up.
[G2 Original Android Development] sqlpro:
Guys, those sensor issues (screen doesn't wakeup) , dorimanx kernel would be any better?
[G2 Original Android Development] jl10101:
It is ROM related unfortunately...They are having issues with sources for that function
[G2 Original Android Development] sqlpro:
Bummer! Thanks for the reply. I saw that carbon stopped development for g2 quoting some cm issues. Looks like we never get a solution for this problem! Feel sad couldn't use such great ROM as daily driver.
[G2 Original Android Development] mistah_mumford:
I thought I was going crazy but I've noticed that as well lol. No biggie really but it's now confirmed that I'm not seeing things! :)
[G2 Original Android Development] Zor Omega:
It kicked on immediately. Within 3 or 4 seconds. I used Google maps, then waze. Then verified with GPS status app. I was getting between 8 and 12 locks out of 17.
[G2 Original Android Development] wokdogol:
mahdi rom + g2 xposed (for tinted bar) = perfect! :good::good::good:
[G2 Original Android Development] mistah_mumford:
I've been using Mahdi since the 6/28 build and have never taken a look at the Mahdi widget until last night after deleting nandroids from all other ROMs and clean flashing 7/18. Having that screen off widget on the home screen is awesome sauce!

I had to go back to stock but what is the widget?

sent from your moms phone
[G2 Original Android Development] mistah_mumford:
It's just a widget that you choose what you want it to be when you add it to the screen. I chose to have mine shut the screen off. No double tap on home screen and reaching up to the status bar is a bit far. Perfect solution!
[G2 Original Android Development] Giocarro:
To switch the screen OFF I use a ring-target: that is easily reachable with a single swipe from from the bottom and in lock-screen, too.
[G2 Original Android Development] kwdan:
Works with stock for sure( I did that! Sprint took the hidden menu out of zvc). I had to install zva, go to hidden menu, updated touch firmware.. Then go back to zvc. My touch only works if I install 2faced rom. https://www.dropbox.com/s/r0j63jp66bt4sqp/2014-07-28-06-37-23.png
[G2 Original Android Development] mistah_mumford:
That's even better! Thanks! Once again settings that I see and don't think I'll use lol

Another one that I just found is security > quick unlock. I hate having to purse enter after entering the pin! OK I think I'm done! Lol
[G2 Original Android Development] wmatheney:
No. Mine is the LS980. See jl10101 response a few posts back. It sounds like there are issues with the sources for that function.
[G2 Original Android Development] musashihatred:
i've noticed that the phone doesnt go screen off after it's timeout.

When i have an app open, or a notification it doesn't turn off it's screen after it's timeout.

and when i lock my phone and my hand is still near the device (somewhat), the display turns on -_-

any ideas ?:)
[G2 Original Android Development] m.vierlboeck:
I made a gps.conf myself yesterday and since then i get gps locks everytime instantly.

Atm the location is Gemany/Europe and i used parts of this guide here:

[Trick] Speed Up Satelite Fix for GPS on Android

(Only the first part - which servers to use)

And then I inserted these infos im my own stock gps.conf.

I assume this should work for anyone else, but i can't guarantee it.

Tutorial:

>> Just take the gps.conf i attached at the end of this post and fill in your resepctive servers (look them up like it's describe in the link).

>> Then make a backup of your current conf and replace it by the one you just modiefied (Don't forget to set it permissions back to rw-r-r! afterwards!!).[/U][/B]

I am not responsible for anything that happens to your phone!

It has just worked for me flawlessly.

[G2 Original Android Development] TOdblD:
Has anyone experienced any problems connecting to WiFi using this ROM? Specifically anytime I want to connect to WiFi I have to reboot first. Once connected all is good until I lose connection by leaving the house or whatever. Then to connect to WiFi again I have to reboot. Any known fixes for this issue or even any suggestions for a fix? Other then that love the ROM, seems to be pretty stable.
[G2 Original Android Development] simon_lefisch:
Never had a prob with WiFi. Maybe clear WiFi data/cache.

[G2 Original Android Development] TOdblD:
Clear WiFi cache has no affect. Its not just my home WiFi, its any WiFi. If I were to go to McDonalds right now I would have to reboot before I could connect to WiFi. Going to try to re-flash and maybe I'll get lucky and it will eliminate the problem. Also just realized that if I try to check for update through "about phone" in settings I get the "unfortunately settings has stopped" message. Getting ready to figure out how to log issues so I can properly report them and hopefully help the devs and users of this great ROM. Still open to suggestions on my WiFi issue.
[G2 Original Android Development] AnteusFogg:
Good day to all, I have a question about this rom: is there any way (xposed or else) to have the camera launched by long pressing a volume key, like it is on stock?

Thank you!
[G2 Original Android Development] simon_lefisch:
That feature does not work and never will due to the way Dr makes his builds (one ROM build with multiple patches). Its easier this way instead of building for each variant.
[G2 Original Android Development] RoboJoe:
Do you use an app called Pry-Fi? It's caused all manner of wifi issues for me, especially when restoring from a TiBu.
[G2 Original Android Development] TOdblD:
Good to know. Saved me some time.

Read the write up on logcats and downloaded catlog. Going to log my WiFi problem before re-flashing.

Hi.

Is there any kernel like dorimax kernel for this rom?
[G2 Original Android Development] Gutsyslap1:
It continued after that (and still do) having issues with the beeping. Haven't been able to figure it out but I forgot to update my post. Didn't think anybody really used the search function around here anymore anyway so thanks for at least using search!
[G2 Original Android Development] Raagh:
Yes, dorimanx ahaha. Go to vanir thread. In the op theres the link for dorimanxAOSP( port made by vanir's dev)
[G2 Original Android Development] TOdblD:
OK, for anyone paying attention or following my posts regarding the issues I was having connecting to WiFi, I corrected the problem. I reflashed everything (ROM, patch and gapps) and the issue is gone. The problem may have been caused by they way I wiped my phone before flashing. I use TWRP and the first time I flashed the ROM I just did the stardard wipe. This second time flashing I used the advanced option when wiping, checked all boxes except system and then wiped. I'm not sure if this caused the problem in the first place and fixed it now or if it was merely coincidence but regardless the problem is gone and I can now connect to saved WiFi locations automatically instead of having to reboot or use airplane mode first. Just wanted to share in case this Info may be helpful to someone. Thanks to those who gave me their advice and input.
[G2 Original Android Development] UrbanBounca:
The only difference between the two would be formating the extended memory, which wouldn't have any impact on WiFi.
[G2 Original Android Development] tpayne2345:
You wiped internal storage too?
[G2 Original Android Development] TOdblD:
I was thinking the same thing, however that is the only thing I did differently the second time around. Could have just been a bad flash or maybe by wiping and clearing WiFi cache it resolved then issue. Either way I am very happy that the issue is resolved.
[G2 Original Android Development] Raagh:
Always wipe everything except internal storage(system data cache and dalvik)
[G2 Original Android Development] TOdblD:
Will probably make a habit of that now. In the past when flashing a, new ROM I would just press the wipe button in TWRP and then slide slider to wipe using the default settings like is recommended and I never had any issues until now.
[G2 Original Android Development] Raagh:
Never heard the default settings were the recommended.

I ve always seen every dev say system data cache and dalvik.

I even wipe cache and dalvik again between rom and gapps.
[G2 Original Android Development] TOdblD:
You misunderstood what I meant. Those ARE the default settings in TWRP however you can also choose advanced options and individually choose what you want to wipe. I said the only thing I did different the second time I flashed the ROM was choose advanced and manually check what i wanted to wipe. I am well aware of the proper procedure for formatting. And by the way can you explain to me what purpose it serves to wipe dalvik cache between flashing the ROM and gapps package? Why not just choose all zips you want to flash in the proper order?

is anyone have experience same with me?

how to solve this?

sometimes it's annoying..

Both have been covered in recent posts here...

1) For the Phone, open the dialer, go to Settings, Make sure Incoming call in background is checked.

2) Seems to be a wide spread issue with no answer yet.
[G2 Original Android Development] balekoglu:
I have two questions. First can I flash stock gapps? And second I read lots of people has different problems. Is the rom stable for daily use?
[G2 Original Android Development] Giocarro:
[MENTION=4355218]balekoglu[/MENTION]

1) yes;

2) yes, 07/29 build is pretty stable, at least on D802: I installed it as soon as it was released and hadn't a single force close or random reboot.

Stable doesn't mean perfect: I experience the known proximity sensor bug and some *rare* difficulty waking the device with double-tap-to-wake.
[G2 Original Android Development] GizmoKaca:
Do you experience the random screen wakes up immidiately after locking bug sometimes on the latest build? :)

Review of MAHDI on D800

Well, it took me some time to circle back and I have been keeping up with the updates and changes since my last review. Here is my updated Review for Mahdi 07/29 as tested as a daily driver for 6 days, tested half on ART half on Dalvik. No camera review portions and I kept it shorter as it is more of an update and the changes since the last one I reviewed. I hope it is useful to anyone thinking about flashing this great ROM.

Also, [MENTION=5232783]dr87[/MENTION] Here are my logcats, almost all are camera crashes or email app crashes after closing them. I hope they are useful.

Actually I'm having them with the latest build.
[G2 Original Android Development] stewyfallingup:
I had that on the Cm11 nightly. Might be your baseband, do you have the Stock KK baseband?

I havent had too many calls so i cant comment fully on that but i think if it was Rom related we would have more people commenting on it.

Give the baseband thing a try. Heres the link to the folder. Its from Cloudyfa (so you know you can trust it)

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=12880
[G2 Original Android Development] edinchez:
I've been on KK since the very beginning, and I've flashed the baseband before as well, so I don't think it can be that.
[G2 Original Android Development] BillyD325:
I had the same issue. Calls would just drop after anywhere from 30 seconds to 4-5 minutes. I clean wiped and reflashed the ROM, patch, etc. and it didn't change anything. I had to reflash the baseband. That solved it completely. I'd recommend trying that. It is possible it could have become corrupted at some point.
[G2 Original Android Development] roor1337:
YES! this is the only real issue I have on this ROM. My only work around that seems to kinda work is to turn off the display by either double tapping the status bar or pressing the power button.

My only other gripe is sometimes torch randomly starts. Is there a gesture that automatically turns it on?
