New Beta

awww yeahhh!

Thank you sir! Flashing shortly!
[Verizon LG G2] ncwildcat:
This may be a dumb question, but I have just come from a Samsung device...Is there and difference in signal strength between this (or any AOSP rom) and stock? The Note2 didn't get as good of reception on AOSP which ultimately kept me on stock, but I am really wanting to get back to AOSP. Thanks in advance
[Verizon LG G2] :
with me there is a slight difference but by a bar thats it.
[Verizon LG G2] jordanl17:
just flashed this, and PA Gapps 4.4.3 Full. I'm getting a ton of FC's on google keyboard. in fact, google keyboard doesn't work. I have no keyboard! after a reboot everything seems to have settled down. but still Google Keyboard is FC'ing like crazy.

edit:

I tried again; wiped system, dalvik, and cache then installed both BSR's 4.4.3 and PA 4.4.3 gapps. all good!
[Verizon LG G2] Lawlrus:
Ive only ever noticed a 5 or so dofferance in db.

One thing that is a plauge are screen redraws on aosp in low signal areas. I end up having to use airplane mode.

My S3 was horrible on asop roms... This Lg has not been even close to as bad...Probably will never own a Samsung again because of crappt signal....I got 3 s3s for my family and signal was always a issue....I do however like tw stock better than lg stock
[Verizon LG G2] mulderato:
Thanks Rob!

Is this build running the old stock kernel or that plagued one from after 5/15? After all the issues I had and the near meltdown I am weary of flashing first since I finally got back to 5/15 and everything went back to normal lol.
[Verizon LG G2] bigshotrob22:
Jackpot kernel sources
[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
bigshotrob22 What's the state of carbon source for the g2? Is it still same code that causes black lines or has that been changed in any way? Is your latest beta based on the original g2 source prior to the stuff that went into the carbon source?
[Verizon LG G2] bigshotrob22:
Source is still the same. I havent messed with anything android in a little while. This new beta is based off of old source builds i was building before nightlies.
[Verizon LG G2] mulderato:
Updated...

So far so good. I see the torch light from the lock screen is working. Wasn't expecting that lol.

Just curious of opinions.. should I run interactive over ondemand and should I use ART over dalvik? Previously when I was in PA, ART was hit or miss with certain builds.

Thanks again for the excellent work Rob! Will keep updated if I notice anything.
[Verizon LG G2] Lawlrus:
Code doesnt cause the black lines. Go to the damaged screen thread in g2 generl, and read up

---------- Post added at 04:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:05 PM ----------

I prefer art. On aosp i dont need exposed because yhese roms offer all i need. Art is quicker at loading apps, and better for battery.

I use ondemand and set the max freq to 19000 or 17000. I dont game so its more then fast enough.

How's everyone's gps connection on this latest 4.4.3 beta? I get zero gps.

Update... My bad. Gps was turned off. ?
[Verizon LG G2] Mightycaptain:
Honestly for me I've noticed no difference in db strength between stock and AOSP. Now by bars alone Yes. LG does what samsung did and reflects the higher signal strength. Voice vs data. Aosp seems to reflect the lower in the bars. But db is the same to me. One thing aosp does seem to do slower is switching data. Lte to 3g or 1x. Or From wifi to mobile. Use advanced signal status to get a good reading in a couple locations on stock then go aosp and I bet you want see much of any difference. But this phone has good signal. On Par with most Moto devices I've compared against. Definitely better than samsung. I had an S4 before.
[Verizon LG G2] evolishesh:
Loving this new release.. Clean install and I haven't had any issues.. Thanks again.

Question the volume is low compared to the 05/05 build

Anything I could do that's proven

Never mind found a way
[Verizon LG G2] :
Try a factory restore/fresh flash that works for me
[Verizon LG G2] shiftr182:
It's working good so far. The only bug I see is that cm themes aren't changing the icons. Even when I apply icons only in theme chooser they don't change.

Edit: it might just be Nova. I found a way around it.
[Verizon LG G2] RoboJoe:
On the latest 4.4.3 build my VPN connects, but then I can't connect to the Internet. The connection is fine without the VPN. It worked fine on the previous build, and works fine on my computer. (So it's not the VPN.)

Any thoughts? Any command outputs I can supply to help?

Edit: using OpenVPN for Android app and PIA native Android app.
[Verizon LG G2] HueyT:

[Verizon LG G2] tpayne2345:
Latest beta running smooth as silk.. only problem I've encountered: MMS is blurry and pixelated

I'm using Hangouts primarily but stock is blurry as well.. did anyone find a fix for this in the past?

[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
I rebuilt with all new cm qcom/media repo as well as pa gapps 4.4.3 and youtube works now. :)
[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
Ok, got another weird one. Can anyone who has bigshotrob's latest beta + pa gapps 4.4.3 test the camera app and see if everything is ok? Mine comes up with black screen but takes pictures just fine.

Both the google app and the Next camera are working fine for me.
[Verizon LG G2] mulderato:
I had the same volume issue when I went to the 5/25(ish) build from 5/15. Ofcourse 5/25 was horrible so this is what I ended up doing:

Wiped system, flashed Malladus, reboot.. sign in gps lock ect... then back to recovery, wipe system flashed 5/05 then reboot... rinse repeat, then flashed 5/15. Stayed on that build. Then I flashed the following for volume fix: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2701745

Now I have updated to the newest 4.4.3 from Tuesday (6/10) and the volume flashed has stayed where as on 5/25 it wiped it and no matter what I did that build refused to take the flashed adjustment. I wish though that it was a little louder still like stock but this is far better than it was where I literally had to hold the phone to my ear to make sure there actually was volume coming from media like Youtube.

My suggestion given the issues I had with 5/25 would be to revert back to at least 5/15... (wipe, malladus, 5/5, 5/15, audio fix, 6/10... thats what worked for me) but if you have made it through all of that without issue and haven't had any problems.. try flashing it. If it doesn't work.. follow what I did.. its a pain to wipe but it has fixed the audio.

Anything on the sms issue with pixelated pics fix

I had an issue yesterday where I went to wake up my phone and the screen stayed off, I could feel it buzzing from feedback from touching the screen though. I had to do the hold down the power for 15 secs to force reboot it. This is on the latest beta.

Although I love Carbon ROM, 4.4.3 is running just fine on Vanir with no issues. So it's not an issue with 4.4.3 across the board.

Same here for gummyrom
[Verizon LG G2] RoboJoe:
There is a workaround in the Google+ thread comment I linked above that seems to work.
[Verizon LG G2] jordanl17:
I'm glad my Juniper Pulse works. lucky it works!
[Verizon LG G2] tpayne2345:
Are you using stock or something else?

I've been testing both stock and Hangouts. Stock messaging sometimes sends a perfect picture without pixelation or blurriness, I can't get it to be consistent though.. Hangouts is wacky and will send pics sideways in landscape and it's always a bit pixelated.. I'm also using Google Camera so that might make a difference?

If anyone has any other feedback or solutions, please post. This is super annoying
[Verizon LG G2] RoboJoe:
Is that a VPN? You should go to ipleak.net and make sure you're actually being routed through the VPN.
[Verizon LG G2] jordanl17:
just visited ipleak.net for the first time. I'm VPN'ed in on my phone. VPN is allowing me to get to my network. what exactly am I looking for on ipleak.net? the IP I see is my phones IP, is that right?
[Verizon LG G2] RoboJoe:
It should be the IP address "of the phone", after going through the VPN. I suppose a simple check, if you don't recognize the provider, is to go to ipleak.net once disconnected from the VPN and then again after you connect and make sure the IP address changes.

Edit: Oh, if you can get on your network via the VPN then it's working.
[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
Anyone have a solution to the Hangouts can't send/receive (group) MMS issue? I know this isn't a Carbon specific thing.
[Verizon LG G2] :
Have you tried clearing the setting for the hangouts in the app menu

As in "clear data" for the hangouts app? yes.

Have you input the specific Verizon APN MMS settings? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2053705
[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
Thanks, looking at that app. Works with latest 4.4.3/24A Carbon?

I can't use that APN method in that link. There is no "more" option in Mobile network settings". The only place I've found to manually enter APN info is in Hangouts and that doesn't work. It doesn't save the settings entered.
[Verizon LG G2] HueyT:
It should work the same as long as you're rooted. The Hangout APN should have the "Save" option in the upper right hand corner where the 3 vertical dots are (you have to name the APN as "Verizon" or something similar)
[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
i've tried every possible combo in Hangouts to save APN's and it just won't save. Actually I take that back. It will save if I leave the default MCC value.... which won't work for me since I'm in the US. I try some more I guess.

---------- Post added at 11:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:54 AM ----------

Ok, I did exactly as that thread instructed... I didn't change the default mcc of 310 nor the default mnc of 009. Not sure if I need to change those but it did save.
[Verizon LG G2] jordanl17:
Did it fix your MMS issue?????

Can I just dirty flash or do I have to clean wipe?

The drivers/kernel are based on 24A, the carbon source I believe is up to 4.4.4 now.
[Verizon LG G2] UrbanBounca:
It's still in nightly, but is Carbon a good daily driver? Is everything working? GPS, specifically?
[Verizon LG G2] tpayne2345:
Last night I flashed 6/22 nightly (clean flash, wiped twice) along with mini mod PA gapps and got the white LG screen with (permanent?) black lines that was a previous problem.. dunno what happened but the black lines are there for good it looks like... fair warning to others I guess

anyone know of a fix if at all possible?
[Verizon LG G2] mjones73:
If it's less then a year old, take it back to Verizon and get it covered under warranty, otherwise you're gonna have to replace the screen.
[Verizon LG G2] tpayne2345:
thought so, thanks for quick answer
[Verizon LG G2] mjones73:
At what point did it go white on you? Just flashed 6/22 clean myself, so far so good though.
[Verizon LG G2] tpayne2345:
made a nandroid, wiped everything twice, flashed 6/22 and gapps, booted fine and everything worked correctly, I made my dpi change from 480 to 410 like I always do and when I rebooted this time the LG screen went white and gray so I hardbooted with the power button immediately, it did it again and I used the power button, 3rd time the LG screen and boot was normal until the home screen where I noticed the black lines on the right side

went back to TWRP and they were still there :(
[Verizon LG G2] :
When my screen did that. the grey and white. Like fading. I put it in the freezer for a bit to cool down. Sorry about the black lines dude. From the posts i read about the discoloured lg screen people stated putting it in freezer to fix. I had the same thing happen dozens of times.
[Verizon LG G2] RoboJoe:
I had a similar issue, but managed to kill power before the lines became permanent. Dirty flashing was fine, but I was experiencing extreme battery usage from Android System, so I booted into recovery (TWRP), wiped data, and rebooted system; I was in recovery for less than 1 minute and my phone was barely warm. Saw the funky green LG logo with a sizable black line on the right hand side and immediately long pressed the power button; reboot went off as normal, no lines.

I feel like permanent damage is imminent. I don't have the data handy to say whether it's just coincidence or not, but it sure looks suspicious.
[Verizon LG G2] zandroid:
I haven't kept up with the line issue recently but I recall it being hardware related. dr87 released new versions of TWRP that eliminates the thermal issues the g2 has while in recovery. Basically how hot it gets. See his post for more info and downloads.

I've permanently sworn off AOSP. I've found that I'm (a) no longer interested in a completely stripped version of Android and (b) not willing to kill my LCD. I clean flashed CarbonRom 6/22 yesterday, and when it booted, it was the 'melted LG logo' like many people have already stated.

I went back to stock 4.4.2 and disabled most of the garbage.
[Verizon LG G2] mjones73:
And people have killed their LCD's flashing stock based roms and the KK update also.
[Verizon LG G2] Lawlrus:
Pretty much what he said above me. Someone that doesnt even have a custom recovery, full stock with root only got them in the stock recovery. And someone got them taking an offical ota.

Aosp is not to blame for a multi billion dollar company sh*ting the bed.

Okay, so this is interesting. I have the 626 build on my phone with banks minimal gapps. It runs fine, no problems. Last night I turned my phone off and plugged it in (stock lg charger) and the splash screen came up with the melting lg logo. I held power down and unplugged and it rebooted fine with no melting logo. I tried turning it off and plugging it in again, got the melting logo again. I held the power button to turn it off, unplugged it and it booted fine. Just to test I tried it again. I got the melting logo, so I held the power button down but didn't unplug it, I got the melting logo again, then I held power and unplugged it and it booted fine. In other words, I can't charge it with the phone off.

If you go to the OP there is a link for downloads. You can get the nightlies there. I'm not sure what the difference is between those and bigshotrob specific builds.
[Verizon LG G2] mulderato:
I saw those which are new to me but I too do not know the difference between his builds and those but given that we haven't seen a specific build from him in the last couple of weeks in wondering if they have been integrated into carbons site or if he is still working on them as a project. I see we are still getting reports of screen disasters with those nightly build :( That's what has kept me on Robs. . he kept his build based on his modified stuff not dr87s which was causing all the problems.

Carbon's latest source has this fixed. We need a new build from Rob though.
[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:

[Verizon LG G2] RoboJoe:
The 24a-based nightlies for this phone on the official website don't count as "official support"?
[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
My bad, I thought Rob stopped the official nightlies due to that "black lines" issue. Are you saying that the official nightlies are fully 24A and good to go? If so, then my build is pointless and I'll remove the link. Just seemed to me like people were relying on Rob's "beta" builds for the 24A stuff.
[Verizon LG G2] RoboJoe:
They are 24A. They turned off nightlies for this phone for a bit when they suspected that their ROM was causing the black lines, but since it appears to be more widespread than just Carbon/AOSP, they turned them back on.

I am running the 6/30 nightly right now, and it seems good to go for me. CarbonDelta works as well, for updates.
[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
Ok, good to know. Thanks for the info. I don't use the nightlies so I'm out of the loop on their status.
[Verizon LG G2] RoboJoe:
No problem! For those interested, my info comes from this Google+ post, and a comment made towards the end. Google+ post from CarbonRom
[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
Ah. Ok. So many sources of info. I only use their IRC room. Good to know folks are taken care of. The only thing I would caution is that it seems that the dreaded "black lines" thing started happening with dr87 based kernel mods. I very well could be wrong about that. Hopefully Carbon's g2 kernel sources have been updated to better stuff.

voice+ duplicates

Hi all, happily enjoying carbon nightlife after being saddled with a vzw sgs4 for so long that came with locked and knoxed f/w

Latest nightlies working very smooth, carbondelta as well

One issue occurs with voice+ where I receive a duplicate of every text in my messaging app. Only one shows up in GV. I don't have them forwarded to SMS either (actually have carrier block on all messaging for my line, so every message is purely GV)

Had missed voice+ for so long without aosp and the threaded conversation view is nice, but does anyone know a g2 or carbon specific fix for the duplicate issue? Both sent and received
[Verizon LG G2] RoboJoe:
I don't know of a fix, but I can confirm that it happens to me, as well.
[Verizon LG G2] zandroid:
I don't use voice+ but have you guys checked the CM thread or website? Tried clearing data and cache for voice+?
[Verizon LG G2] RoboJoe:
Nah; I use actual SMS so rarely that I wasn't even going to bother looking into a fix; I just wanted him to know that it wasn't only him seeing the problem.
