you shouldn't have the lines inside the recovery.

So, boot up TWRP - flash dorimanx kernel or any other (either labeled

jdi

or using dorimanx kernel which has auto recognition)

complete image distortion on jdi panel after recovery install

I would love not to have them. But after twrp install all i can see is white and colored lines. I cant see even Lg logo. Just lines. I can see they change some colors after touches but image on screen is completely distorted. Thanks for attention. Any other ideas?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bender_007:
If you're having lines inside the revovery it's hw failure. Tried entering twrp? Also download mode should be without the lines. Can you try the 2 then report back?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] denis_g:
Same line issue in download mode. I cant say for sure but it seems that phone can enter recovery mode. Because after after automated tool recovery twrp install phone goes into recovery mode as I understood from tool description. I cant see what was on screen but it behaved like it was recovery mode not regular boot.

At least it is not stable hardware issue because I went back using Lg tool and download mode to stock and screen could show almost normal image with light white horizontal lines. I tried once again to install twrp with Freedom tool and result was the same as wih Autorec. Full line distortion in every mode including starting lg logo. Then I went back to stock with lg tool. Once again normal image with small white lines that disappeard same day. So now phone has clear picture and stock fw but no custom recovery(
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Un0fficial4DM1N:
Don't the lines usually mean your screen is different and needs a patch? G2 used two types of screens. I get lines inside Philz recovery but its nothing I can't deal with.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] denis_g:
jdi panel full lineal distortion

Couple posts ago I've wrote more specifically about the problem. Yes, I have another type panel (jdi), but afrter recovery twrp install image is fully distorted. Just lines. No way to understand what is on screen and install kernel for jdi.

first of all thank you!!

i rooted my g2 and installed the autorec app....and now before i flash a new rom, how do i backup?(i heard something about nandroid

and busybox, it just made me more confused XD...)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunandroid:
Have you already runned Autorec and installed the recovery (TWRP)?

If yes:

Boot into the recovery (Vol- & Power till the LG Logo appears --> release quickly and immediately press these two buttons again, if you really installed TWRP, just go through the reset process like you would delete the date and there will be no data deleted) and press Backup. Check everything (if you can't, go advanced and do it there) and swype to back up. That will take some minutes, but afterwards it's the safest way, to get back to the stock firmware if you have to return your G2 in case of warranty or something similar.

The Backup is saved on your internal storage.

Then you can install the new ROM...

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
Well if you have a done backup in recovery then the part of backup named boot is the kernel you can do a backup of only kernel and flash New kernel or download cloudy kernel(which is complete stock with the modification to work on g3 ported roms) and that can be a stock alternative

Camera Lag

Hello all.

So, I have finally bought a lg g2 and I was amazed how fast it is.

But, everything went well untill I started thr camera. The camera just lags. Focus, time needed to take the photo after I clicked to take the photo, lag when I move the phone etc.

Have you guys any solution to this?

And yes, I tried with that trick 3845#*802# but it did not help.

Any chance to make it work without rooting the phone?

P.S. I bought the phone on Ebay. Used but in great condition, 4 month old. The phone runs on kitkat and was already Factory reset. Should I have done maybe something more?

Big thanks

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jedthehumanoid:
I had to get my phone replaced because of screen issues. Had no issues with AT&T in the process which was great but now I've got a phone that came with Kit Kat pre-installed. My question is, is flashing back to Jelly Bean with the tot file still the only way to get a custom recovery? I think that is still the case but wanted to double check. I want to put a different rom on here but I'm wondering if there is a quicker way because my computer is giving me issues with the port as far as getting the LG flash tool to work correctly...
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
no, you can root and install custom recovery while on kitkat

-root using ioroot, stumproot or towelroot

-install recovery using autorec app
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunandroid:
Have you heard about autorec. I can't really say, cuz i was on jb when i rooted, but afaik autorec is specially made for this case and does everything by it self. ;)

Just yeah, you say its better to flash g3 rom for example than use the official stock kitkat? No big risks of bricking my phone during the root/recovery/rom flash processes? And no big differences in performance and batery life between stock and g3 rom?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Art Vanderlay:
I haven't used g3 roms for a while but I liked them from the beginning. Just try it and see. You won't brick your phone if you follow the procedures and check what your flashing and wiping. I don't know what model you have, just make sure you don't have a d802T which is different from d802 before you flash.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chorba69:
I have the d802 32gb version. I will try maybe with g3 because I like the split view feature.

Just one thing more. I currently have d80220d-eur-xx software version. I saw in internet that there is a d80220f update with knock code feature but when I check for updates in phone settings, it says I have the latest version. Any chance to get that update? I live in Germany.

Hello,

A quick search reveals nothing specific about this, so it seemed worth asking.

My LG G2 screen seems to flicker sometimes, and it is more noticeable the lighter the colour displayed on the screen. The brightness doesnt seem to go over 25% and I have done a hard reset which didnt fix the problem. I think it may be the backlight strobing very quickly for some reason, as when the screen dims (when I leave the phone on the lock screen), the flickering disappears.

Is this a hardware issue or can i fix it by getting different firmware?

Cheers for any advice!

cloudy g3 1,3 and stock kernel

Hello Everyone

Im quite new to testing roms and kernels . Got my brand new G2 D803 a month ago. I have tested Cloudy G3 1.3 and Cloudy stock 2.5 . Both are great BTW with the kernel included .

My question is, can i flash the kernel from my Stock g2 D803 Rogers with any of these roms? g3 1.3 , stock 2.5 flex 2.6 etc or any other roms.

I find that the included kernel (G1.3)3 is really fast 36k+ antutu for me :) problem is my 4g LTE connection (New APN added) is weak and the sound and Bluetooth performance is not as good as Stock g2 D803 Rogers kernel. Another problem i noticed is that my phone runs a lot hotter(back near camera) with very little load(not gaming), also verified with clean master temp monitor 45-56C with the included kernel and tested dorimanx 7.3 kernel with same problem.

Is there a thread which has a poll for your G2 roms and other kernel combinations , which include the following

Antutu scores,Battery Life, idle and load temps , Pros and Cons overall and reported bugs? If it doesn't it would really help. these roms are so popular that there is over 500 pages for each popular rom.

Thanks again for all your time guys
