I have no issues with proximity and light sensors. Did you go to 24a then to this immediately? Or did you come from stock?

[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
To this immediately. I saw your stuff about flashing stock first. Where can I get a stock rom to flash?
[Verizon LG G2] Lawlrus:
Same forum subtype yore in. Xdabbeb has a stock based ROM. There's malladus and micromod has two based on stock.

[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
ok, thx. will try that. wish there was a way to go to carbon 24a without fill wipe. ugh..
[Verizon LG G2] Lawlrus:
You should always be full wiping honestly.

Some roms (not many, but some) do not run a script to wipe system.

That can cause issues with phone and system ui FC's as soon as it boots.

I always had that problem with omni. They don't have a theme engine and coming from one that does and not wiping system makes the phone unuseable because its a nonstop theme fc

Not to mention if a ROM adds a lot of commits and you try to dirty flash, it can bootloop you.

I'm to the point where I never dirty flash. Stops me from having a lot of issues other people get.

Just installed bigshotrob's build. Feels great! Like jpc's, bit with the Carbon features I like!!
[Verizon LG G2] JDROIDS:
Bluetooth buggy but awesome ROM

First thank you for the ROM. Carbon is awesome and aside from one bluetooth issue this ROM is running really well.

The bluetooth connects and disconnects to and from my car repeatedly rendering it unusable.

This is the only issue I found. I clean flashed and was running a 24A stock ROM previously. I tried clearing data and cache on the bluetooth process app but that did not work. I also fixed permissions to no avail.

Everything else works. The GPS locked on immediately and the navigations works well.

One other issue is that the volume from the speaker is low but not bad.

Thank you again for the ROM and great work!
[Verizon LG G2] Deliberate:
yup. tried exactly what u said... and uh... no im stuck in a loop. and the best thing?... im pretty sure my sd card got wiped because when i press install on twrp theres nothing except "(up a level)" so if anyone has any ideas please im all ears lol!

I'm feeling really dumb here. Are all the Carbon Nightlies now 24a? If I'm still on 12b do I have to update before installing a new nightly?
[Verizon LG G2] mjones73:
No, bigshotrob22 released one beta based on 24A, it's on or around page 31 of this thread. You want to clean flash that and don't copy the nightlies over it.

Edit: Here it is - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52297151&postcount=303
[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
Also, since you have to do the whole "12b to 24a" jig... if you are following the "easy short approach"... you'll need to flash a stock 24a rom prior to flashing the 24a carbon unofficial bigshotrob build. If you don't flash a stock rom temporarily first, you will run into issues with your sensors not working when you flash carbon.

Note that if you go this route, which I have and am loving it, you will not be able to flash any current Carbon nightlies, since they are all on the 12b bootstack. You'll need to wait till either bigshotrob updates the carbon source with his changes or wait until he gives us another unofficial to flash via this forum.
[Verizon LG G2] mjones73:
Yeah you need to get all the firmware up to 24A first. I flashed the 24A leak before the OTA dropped, re-rooted with ioroot25 and used AutoRec to re-install TWRP.

[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
Been running the carbon kk unofficial that bigshotrob posted for a day or so now with these results:

The good:

No more SODs.

GPS locks normally

No more homescreen freezes, force to lockscreen issues

Very fast, no UI lags

The not so good:

Still some weird issues with lte->3g transitions w homescreen flickering/redraws

interactive governor causes reboot

No word on when/if these source changes to 24A will become official

Can't use any vs980 custom kernels until the dev updates source to 4.4.2 (don't think savoca (furnace), paek or dr87 have yet)

verdict

Can't imagine bigshotrob is going to leave us hanging with this so will presume this will make it to carbon source sooner than never. It's mentioned that CM updated their source that fixes the interactive gov. With no more SOD's and a normal GPS, I'm totally down with this build and look forward to getting back into the nightlies fold.
[Verizon LG G2] roor1337:
How often do those interactive governor reboots happen? I really miss carbon but do not miss the sods and reboots!!!

okay I tried install carbon 4.4.2 beta but got stuck on the carbon loading screen (I waited about 20-30 minutes because I forgot about it). Im currently on Malladus 2.0.2 using [24a] twrp 2.7.0.0 recovery. I downloaded the unoffical 4.29.14 version and pa_gapps-stock-4.4.2-20140426a.

The steps i took were this:

- wipe dalvik, cache and system (x2)

- install malladus 2.0.2 < carbon 4.29 < pa_gapps

- wipe cache and dalvik

did I skip a step/misunderstand something/flash a wrong stock ROM?
[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
Did you you use one of the several methods for updating your bootstack to 24A? That needs to be done prior to your steps.
[Verizon LG G2] mjones73:
Don't install Malladus, you just need to wipe and install Carbon Rom and gapps.
[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
That may not be a true statement. If you use the "easy" method for updating the bootstack to 24A, you'll need to flash a stock based rom first, such as malladus 2.0.2. Then you can flash carbon. If you don't flash the stock rom first, you'll get a lot of sensor issues when on carbon.

If you use that longer approach to update to 24a bootstack, within that process is being on stock anyway... so either way, you need to be on stock prior to flashing carbon.
[Verizon LG G2] roor1337:
that I am unsure of. I used autorec for the recovery and from what it says it downgrades the bootloader
[Verizon LG G2] mjones73:
Re-read his post, he already had Malladus, stated he wiped his phone then installed Malladus again followed by Carbon and gapps. I understand you need the 24A bootstack, you don't want to flash one rom right after the other without wiping in between.

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

If you were already running Malladus 2.0.2, you should be good already.
[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
All true.
[Verizon LG G2] HueyT:
CM11 nightlies or M5 (besides JackpotClavin's builds) is based on JB (even though it looks like KK). This is why Furnace 2.0 works on it. If you try any true KK source AOSP roms (Mahdi Beta, Carbon Beta, Paranoid Android Beta, JackpotClavin's CM11-24A, and others, etc.), Furnace 2.0 won't work.
[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
Thanks good to know. So for now, the kernel that comes with bigshotrob's kk test build is it.
[Verizon LG G2] roor1337:
It works! :highfive:

So yea, flashing malladus first seemed to cause the problem with it not booting up correctly. Now im in and cant wait to take out this 24a rom for a test drive!

when wiping, I went a slightly different route which I am unsure if that helped but I did a dalvik, system, data, cache (everything but the internal sd data)
[Verizon LG G2] mjones73:
CM 11 is KitKat/4.4.2 Android. The proprietary files (kernel, drivers, etc) needed to make it work on the G2 are ported from the JB source that was available at the time so that KK would run on our phones.

Pretty much what's noted at the top of JackPotClavin's CM11 thread sums it up nicely.

About this ROM:

Official CM11 uses the proprietary binaries and libraries of the offical Android 4.2 build for the LG G2 (Jellybean).

Its kernel sources were merged into CAF kernel sources, and along the way, something happened where occasionally, the device won't wake up and reboot upon pressing the post button (commonly called an SOD).

This ROM is based on the CM11 sources, but updated with a 4.4.2 kernel, and 4.4.2 binaries and libraries from the official LG G2 OTA (VS98024A)
[Verizon LG G2] Lawlrus:
Until these betas get farther along, its best to stick with the stock kernel.

All of this is relatively new.

I think it's a good idea to always wipe everything including data when switching to a new ROM, Malladus to Carbon in your case.. if upgrading the same ROM you don't necessarily need to wipe data (only sys, dalvik, & cache).. just FYI

trying to push old data to a new ROM is playing with dynamite
[Verizon LG G2] roor1337:
What you said is normally what I would do. It was just with the talk about flashing a stock 24a first then carbon to get the auto rotate working kinda scared me.

I've always heard it's good practice to wipe everything for compatibly issues. With 24a in its infant steps I've found myself doing more work arounds and dirty flashes to keep features on stock to transfer to malladus. Im just glad 24a seems to getting started in the right direction and easier.

Thanks again devs!

[Verizon LG G2] HueyT:
Carbon Beta 4.4.2 source is excellent AOSP with lots of features (Carbonfibers). Everything is working very well for VS98024A. Nandroid is only 990MB which is very slim. It's fast and light. You don't need custom kernels as this stock kernel works great. Battery life is average but not bad. Call volumes and quality is fine. It accepts Jishnu AOSP camera mod, Google camera no problem. I like it. :good:
[Verizon LG G2] Lawlrus:
Yes. Flashing the top most will get you to 24a. Flashing his ROM will embed the rotation so you won't have rotation issues on 4.4 aosp.

Flash top one. Reboot out of recovery and back into it. (There is an option to boot into the recovery from the main scree )

Do a full wipe, then flash his ROM.

You need to do more then restore your back up, bootstack needs to be 24A to use this beta, if you're downgrading to something based on pre 24A, you need to downgrade your bootstack also.
