its still not a solid fix, like when sprint sends OTA update no crashes happen and also no icon changes, you will see no changes in your phone. Im waiting that someone can break the code that sprint does on this OTA update.this is what sprint does

[Sprint LG G2] Ramonsterator:
Have you guys tried this fix on non-custom ROMs??
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
Mine is on a non custom ROM, mine is on a rooted only phone.
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
Definately not a solid fix, but changing this code might be part of how they unlock it themselves, maybe we are just missing some other change we're not aware of yet.

These crashes only seem to happen when at full signal strength.
[Sprint LG G2] Ramonsterator:
I believe that this is just firmware's bug.

Can you try flashing your LS980 to for example CyanogenMod11 and try using with your GSM service?
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
I'll try that later, I have not even put a custom recovery yet so I'm pretty far from it.
[Sprint LG G2] pvinodnayak:
I just tried country=EU and operator=OPEN

no system ui crash but cant access wifi menu, system crashes. can someone try this ?
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
Just tried it, also cannot access wifi menu.
[Sprint LG G2] pvinodnayak:
Does system ui crash ?

not sure if this works, was going through the net for our problem, earlier instead of build,prop

you could just edit /data/data/files operator.txt add all the operators, ATT TLS OPEN TMO save and reboot.

maybe if we set the value to ro.build.target_operator=/data/data/operator.txt and then use it ?

just a thought have no clue and scared to try also..
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
Yes systemui still crashes.

This is based in flex rom, try to return this to stock but have many personalizations. Had problems with some options in menu developer and home screen, some apps crashes. But works fast and have a beatiful personalization. Really there was no changing ROMs worked, but trial and error learning much. excuse me my bad english.

The 802 ROM is estable, have a lot the mods and have more support.

The thanks is for [MENTION=2673389]justinswidebody[/MENTION] and other xda members. I hope they help us with nfc module.

Folks, I did test. Justin's ROM can work with SIM card of H2O wireless that are using AT&T towers. Its HSPA+ speed is very fast.
[Sprint LG G2] plutarco74:
Thank for your answer, last question:

you have used a "pure" RAYGLOBE or justin customization ?
[Sprint LG G2] patriky:
to jorgeaoc : Could U make a link for your tested rom D802 Power User Editoin and we can download a testing also ?

For me personaly NFC is not really important. The better funcion is Radio FM.

Anybody tried or been able to unlock OpTimuS DE V1.9 using the build.prop edit method? Just got a Sprint LG G2 and planning to use it in Canada. It's in the mail otherwise I would try it myself of course.
[Sprint LG G2] younggunner:
build.prop

the build.prop edit should work for those outside of the us, otherwise you need to use a tmobile rom that me or justin have ported over.
[Sprint LG G2] Bl00dRunzC0ld:
I'm sticking with Justin's ROM for T-Mobile usage. Worked like a charm the first time I installed it. Tried younggunners cm11 ROM twice and both times I had to use the LG Flash Tool to go back to stock because it failed to flash. Don't like being stuck only going to TWRP.

Rerooted my sprint g2 yesterday after losing root access due to sprints ota update.

Edited 3 values in stock prop build this morning to unlock gsm and voala?? it works!!

Issues ive experienced, wifi settings dont work, nfc dont work and had a 2 system ui crashes in the last 2hrs but had no problem dailing without a zero infront of phone numbers, weird ??

Now playing around with build properties to solve the wifi issues?

Any pointers on what i should do guys.?m a noob in the flashing roms and kernels area ??
[Sprint LG G2] patriky:
I was trying using Justin's ROM for T-Mobile, but my wifi did not work. Now, I m using stock Sprint version and is workig fine, with changed build.pro.

The point is, we want to flash international ROMs like Aeonflex, but is not working for LS 980 now :crying: Anyway I m happy user of LS 980 here in Europe :cyclops:
[Sprint LG G2] pvinodnayak:
I don't understand why people require Wi-Fi settings, you can connect to any Wi-Fi network provided you know the password correct? That you can connect with the current build.pro MOD.
[Sprint LG G2] buracho:
How did you get to open the wifi settings window?? I kno2 the password but mine crashes every time i try to input it or change b\n wifi networks after the MOD that is?? I can only toggle wifi on and off, I connect automatically to the previous network configured b4 the mod, thats it.

The only solution i have is to restore build prop to stock conect to my prefered wifi network then edit prob and reboot???
[Sprint LG G2] pvinodnayak:
When a Wi-Fi network is in range it shows indicating that a Wi-Fi network is in range. Clicking on it will show the list of available networks, click on the one that you know the password of, it will prompt you for passwd, enter and enjoy.

Not had a system.ui crash since the day i used the new "spr" unlock.

also i there were other 2 values i had put in my post, the crash.enable is not required, edit only the ro.carrier=spr from SPR.

i did not install the ZVA update as its a Sprint SPARK update and not use full for Indian carriers.
[Sprint LG G2] obie992:
You can download wifi manager from playstore, that will solve your problem.

Im not having any trouble since the unlock, although i was curious that whenever i recieve a text my screen automatically turns on, i cant find a way to turn off this option. Is this because of i changed to 'spr'

Any help?

noob qestion

I currently on jastin room.

What happens if someone runs the restore to default function in phone settings?

- will the function re flash the the system to sprint stock?

- or just reset the the settings to stock?

- or reload currently installed jastin room to stock?

And if the restore function will return my phone to sprint stock, is it safe? will the phone still boot and working normally after that?

(sorry for my English)
[Sprint LG G2] Bl00dRunzC0ld:
If you're talking about factory reset, it will still be on Justin's Rom. I've done several factory resets after flashing Justin's Rom to help eliminate lag after flashing.
[Sprint LG G2] Likeajefe:
Hey guys, so i'm pretty much a noob in this subject, so bear with me plz. I rooted my phone amd edited the build.prop as stated and it unlocked. Though it now recognizes my sim card (my carrier is Tigo - country Bolivia) there isn't an apn option on my phone. I only have 4 options (data enabled, 4g options which i can't even configure cause my carrier doesn't have 4g, network mode which is on gsm/utms, and connections optimizer).

Also my phone says No service - Tigo where it used to say no sim card, not sure if thats the reason, don't know if the ls980 only runs on 4g or 128k sim cards, maybe this is the reason i have no service? If any other info is required plz ask :) thanks for the help in advance

Install Tweakker app from playstore
[Sprint LG G2] Likeajefe:
Already did, only thing that changed was a GSM icon loading in the notification bar. Still "No service- tigo" and copied exactly what tweakker said on 2 different apn's: one for internet, one for mms. I still can't connect without wi-fi or make/recieve calls, mms. Should i just take my phone to my carrier, see if they can configure it?
[Sprint LG G2] pvinodnayak:
Revert back to SPR in build.prop, get connected to your Wi-Fi n save it, then do the edit spr again and try.
[Sprint LG G2] Likeajefe:
Though i appreciate the help i think im not explaining myself clearly. I already have wifi saved and can connect through the internet. What i DONT have is Data access over mobile network, and my sim says NO SERVICE
[Sprint LG G2] pvinodnayak:
The same SIM works on other phone? Data will work only if you have service, I suggest you try a different SIM and see if it's the SIM or the phone that's causing the issue.

^ Are you wanting to unlock the CDMA part of the phone..ie unlocking for domestic US use? (I do not know if this is legal in the USA, please check with your local laws before doing anything)

If yes, you will need a tool called CDMA Workshop/DFS and will have to set the phone to RUIM only.

I don't know if this can be done via QPST.....

I can confirm that if the ESN is blocked for stolen, you won't be able to use the unlock on US carriers. Bought a G2 off ebay and it would not activate on T-Mobile. Put the esn/imei in to their checker and it came back with the message that it couldn't be activated on the network due to being reported stolen. Luckily, I am getting a refund from ebay.

Have u actually tried to stick a activated sim in a bad esn. G2 ? I'm running at&t gophone. On mine and my girl has T-Mobile. On hers and they a're both

Bad esn from Sprint no problems
[Sprint LG G2] Bl00dRunzC0ld:
I put my T-Mobile sim in and it wouldn't register. Just kept saying the network couldn't activate. Tried Justin's rom and cm11. Went in to settings and checked the apn's, tried to select T-Mobile as the network provider, and none of that worked. Finally went to T-Mobile's site and used their imei checker and it came back as reported stolen. The ones you have most likely haven't been reported stolen. From what the site says, if any phone is reported stolen, then it can't be used on their network.

I already shipped the phone back to the ebay seller for a full refund. If you don't want to believe me that's fine. I'm not the only person in this thread that had a bad esn phone that wouldn't work. Here's a picture for a bad esn sprint htc one max that is being sold on ebay. The seller provided all but the last number of the imei. Being the detective I am, (jk), I took the available imei numbers and started adding the last number starting with zero. On two occasions it gave me the stolen phone message. I asked the seller for the complete imei but he never responded and this was two days ago. Again, if you doubt what I'm saying is true, buy a reported stolen sprint phone and enjoy not being able to use it on US gsm carriers.
