Q: LG G Pad GPE

I really want to get back to playing around with custom ROMs but haven't seen anything specific to the GPE (v510) of this device. Is it safe to flash v500 ROMs to the GPE version?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] EdenGottlieb:
Absolutley not, you will brick your device.

Hey I had stutter also freezing etc.

I flashed this:

DYN kernel

I looked through for the CM build (Page 17)

I downloaded and flashed on this Infected_ ROM

(Didn't wipe anything just flashed)

If you wanna flash make a back up (Nandroid) also back up boot (if it doesn't boot, flash boot back up and it should be good.) But be back to default Linux kernel

Advantages:

Smooooooth

Better battery

Less heat

Games are great :)

Flash at your own risk.

I take no responsibility.

If any think goes wrong I'm here.

Please read through and decide if it's something your willing to do :)

Hope all goes well.

[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Cal:
So good it's amazing!!

This nightly is *so* good It's amazing!

I've been installing a modified kernel, but upon Infected advice about running an old outdated kernel is probably not a good idea, I left this Rom's stock kernel installed and it performs great and

CM has added a few more settings under the 'Performance' tab.

Seems to run the smoothest, and fastest of any of the latest nightlys...so good, I'm staying with this one for awhile! (And I'm a seriously hooked flash addict) :silly:

You are probably running on a 4.4.2 base. I had the same thing. Easiest solution is to go the thread on swapping bases, download the 4.2.2 base, flash, reboot to recovery, flash CM11 again and you should be all set.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] wroder84:
Can somebody comment and do a side by side comparison with this ROM and Stock? I haven't really used the Stock g pad long enough to really know if the speed or battery is better or worse on CM 11. Frankly just in the looks department we went from 2011 to 2014 just in one flash with CM11 so for that I really appreciate it. Also did the g pad experience a time past or present that the battery life was an issue or YouTube not working? Just curious I heard this was an issue but I haven't experienced this as of yet, but I'm still a new user on the g pad.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] EdenGottlieb:
I can't do a side by side comparison because I only have 1 G Pad, I can only say that CM 11 is better in every aspect.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] wroder84:
Did you use your Gpad with stock or were you like me and flashed before I really got a taste for LG stock? I'm a Samsung guy so going to Stock LG was like going back a few years so I didn't even give it a chance but now I wish I would have to have some sort of base line to go by.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] EdenGottlieb:
Yes, I stayed with stock for a couple of weeks, I hated it pretty much.

It was laggy, gaming performence was terrible, and everything was bloated.

Now it's clean & fast
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] wroder84:
Okay cool that's kinda what I was looking for. How about battery life? I don't expect the world for battery life but these new devices have gotten so much better that I have ask.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] EdenGottlieb:
About 4 hours of screen on-time
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] wroder84:
Would you say that's better or worse than stock?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] EdenGottlieb:
I'm not quite sure, I don't think there is a significant difference
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] wroder84:
Okay. Thank you this really helps me. Do you have any experience with any of the other roms for this device? Also when you say 4 hours of onscreen time would that be with the brightness at max?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] EdenGottlieb:
[ROM][v500][KK][4.4.4][LINARO/SABERMOD] CyanogenMod 11 [NIGHTLY BUILDS][20140...

I don't think it is max, maybe 60-70%...

I tried other roms but I like this one best, it's the fastest because of infected's optimizations and it doesn't have too many features

Why are you hesitating so much?

Just flash it, if you don't like it, go back to stock
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] wroder84:
I'm already on it! I'm a flashaholic been flashing for years and rarely do I get lucky enough to flash the perfect one first. But I know CM very well so that's why I choose this as my first one. Just trying to see what's out there. Personally I think I made the right choice but if you don't ask then you don't know what's out there.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] EdenGottlieb:
Just try the other roms! Try all of them!

You can backup Nandroid in TWRP and revert perfectly

[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] LeighR:
I was on rooted stock for a long time. I quite liked it. As stated, CM11 is better in every regard. I've also tried slimkat, which is similar to CM. Some different options in the menu and a smaller install but not too different really.

I haven't noticed much difference in battery life.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] sefirosu0522:
Wanna check this out. When I click on downloads and go to the CM11 folder, it doesn't matter if I choose builds from July 17 or 18. The page just sits there. No download. Anyone have a mirror?

Hi infected_

Of the ROMs you've been posting, which do you think is the snappiest? I'm using this ROM (your CM11) which is great but what are your opinions on it compared to AOKP and slimkat (and any others I may have missed)?

Thanks
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] wroder84:
Cm 11 is for me! Mostly because of the launcher. The differences between the rest is the launchers or aokp had slightly more possible tweaks.

compiling method is equal on all builds, so performance/battery/smoothness wise, they should all be the same.

each ROM has its own set of options/features.. its a case of viewing the one that suits you most.

How to get Trebuchet back?

I have been using your CM11 build for a while, great work! Unfortunately I have flashed a complete PA GApps on it, which apparently deleted Trebuchet and overwrote it with the Google Launcher. Is there any way to go back to Trebuchet without deleting all data (factory reset)?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] deepongi:
just flash latest build.. you will have two launchers, trebuchet and GEL.. choose trebuchet as the default one.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] gkkovacs:
Unfortunately, this is not the case. I have flashed the newest build (without GApps), but there is still no Home category in Settings.

Then I manually installed Trebuchet (extracted from priv-apps folder of the same build), Home category appears, but Trebuchet crashes every time I try to launch it. Uninstalling it removes the Home category from Settings, and I'm back where I started (home settings will be hidden until a new launcher is installed).
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] deepongi:
why do you make such a big storm in a glass of water....? :confused:

if you only have tebuchet installed, home option doesnt appears in settings... to access trebuchet settings, long press on the homescreen... if you install another launcher, you will have both, and the home separator in settings appears, so you can define the settings for your new non-trebuchet launcher... define the custom launcher as the default one, and you are done...
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] gkkovacs:
Dude, what the hell are you talking about? I have encountered a problem, and asked for help... what storm?

Problem is, I don't seem to have Trebuchet installed, only the Google Launcher. If I long press, only the GEL settings appear.

Please read my previous post: since flashing the full PA Gapps, I don't have Trebuchet installed, and I can't even install Trebuchet (at least not the regular way).

The solution I'm looking for would be to somehow reinstall Trebuchet.

You mean for gaming right?

Try a PS3 controller, cheap on eBay.

Pair via Bluetooth using Six Axis pair tool on Windows PC.

And it works :D

OTG is a problem with custom ROMs on the V500.

USB device not connected message every time I plug in lol

Anyways....

Try that method I said above,

Buy a PS3 controller

Download Six Axis app from Google Play

Note Bluetooth Address at bottom of the Application

Pair with program Six Axis on a PC (By changing PS3 controller master address to the tablets Bluetooth address)

And pair with the App.

No SD card recognized

I have exhausted efforts to successfully have the new 4.4.4 nightly build recognize my external SD card. It recognizes it fine in recovery, but the latest nightly build will not recognize an external SD card. I have tried reformatting it in various formats, tried different cards, etc., but nothing works. I would welcome any suggestions, but I cannot live without the ext card given the limited internal storage on this device.

Due to a problem I had with backups, my only Nandroid backup was from a late June nightly. Does anyone know the date that the nightly's changed over to this latest Google version, and whether I can flash an older version over the newest to regain access to the SD card? If not, I will just restore that June nightly and stick with it. Thanks.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] deepongi:
i would wipe it all ... :D
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Katmeat:
Thank you for the suggestion, and I did just that, to no avail. I completely wiped the device (2x) and freshly installed the latest build, but it made no difference as I still cannot access the external SD card. I also verified that I had all of the settings that I was aware of correct, including root of both apps and ADB.

This is an absolute puzzler, as I have no problem on earlier versions prior to 4.4.4, as well as no problem with two different stock-based 4.4.2 ROMs that I tried out.

This is clearly a software issue, as when I insert a micro SD card, I get a notification alert, as well as an alert in the notification bar when I remove the card. However, under Storage, the SD card section is greyed out. I have mounted the card in recovery and can browse it, but there is no way to access it through the OS. I have tried various file managers, and different recoveries, but nothing works. I am wondering if I am the only one having this problem, or if it is a wider problem. I certainly would love to hear of any other advice, as I have certainly enjoyed using your builds, and would love to stick with it. Thanks much.

eabi-4.7 has the gamma fix for 4.2.2. So wouldnt linaro arm-eabi-4.7.4 for 4.4.X have it too?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] deepongi:
Please elaborate. didnt understood your question...

what stock rom 4.2.2 has to do with linaro? and gamma fix afaik you need custom kernel.

these builds of the v500, the kernel code is compiled with latest linaro arm-eabi 4.7.4 released (2014.01), if you try using 4.8, build breaks, not compatible with kernel code.. and the rom of course is CM 11 (4.4.2...), which is compiled with sabermod 4.8.3 ..

regards.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] nightanole:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2671997

I assume all builds that use eabi 4.7+ have the gamma fix in it. 4.6 does not have the fix. I also believed the 4.4 v510 kernel had the gamma fix stock.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] deepongi:
first: that kernel is for stock 4.2.2 rom, not AOSP 4.4.2 based ROM's.

second: doesn’t mention that the kernel code was compiled with linaro or sabermod, only says its version 4.7, and which could and probably is the "standard" google toolchain.

third: custom/AOSP toolchains or versions, have nothing to do with gamma fix or control...

[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Mikegrmn:
Just installed the latest build yesterday, too. I don't have the feeling that it's slower, but I've omitted xposed for the first time and switched to art to see if it does anything to improve battery life.

What I read though was that auto brightness is supposed to help battery life, so I had that turned on most of the times and yesterday I read somewhere else that using the brightness sensor may waste more energy than it saves in reducing brightness.

I mostly would be ok with setting brightness manually, but I hate using those sliders. I usually don't request features, but having maybe 3 separate brightness buttons in quick settings pull down which could be set to different values manually would be cool. This way one could set predefined brightness levels with one tap.

Every time I go to your website, it kind of seems not really accessible to me. I thought that I might find changelogs there. I'm missing those because I would like to check what changed from build to build before downloading a new nightly. I'm on a 5GB restricted 3G connection. So if there's not too much change, I'd rather stay with the older version. At least it would be great if you could also post whether or not it's recommended or really beneficial to upgrade once you post that a new nightly is up.

This is just a thought but it would make it much easier for me to decide if I should download the latest 200MB package or not.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] EdenGottlieb:
The changelog is the same as the official CM 11 changelog. It's here: http://www.cmxlog.com/11/v500

BTW, I think the site is "accessible" enough. Very easy to understand, fast downloads, no wait times, MD5 files, what else?

A special changelog is really unnecessary. Maybe adding a link to the site I mentioned above can be nice for people like you, maybe you should consider it @_infected :)

P.S. infected, I thought about contacting cyandelta and ask them to make delta files for your awesome nightlies. It would be much easier and convinient to update and the downloads will be smaller (for people that are on a limited data plan like you Mikegrmn)
