Pardus HD Rom question

I have a V980 LgG2 running PA 4.4.4+ with TWRP 2.8.0.1.

I want to install Pardus HD Rom Black. Is this the right file? https://s.basketbuild.com/devs/pendroz/Sensation Black/3.2/

Are all LG G2 versions running the same Pardus HD rom zip file?

How do I install the dorimanx kernel? Do I install after the Pardus rom is up and running or during the initial install of the rom? Any advise about installing a kernel?

I need to flash the KK Baseband since coming from PA. Is this the right file https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407582725

I don't see any mention of installing GAPPS? Since it is not a AOSP rom are the apps included in the rom zip file?

What is the best way of saving all contacts before flashing other Titanium Backup? If TB is the best, how would you do it correctly?

Thank You for all your help!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunandroid:
If I read correctly Pardus is for D802 only. So no VS980 users.

Gonna answer the other questions nevertheless:

Kernel: flash somewhen after the ROM. Doesn't matter. I do it immediately after the ROM-flash. No reboot or so.

Yeah, KK BB would be the right one. You should flash it before or after the ROm, but during the same session. Means NO REBOOT between installing BB and ROM.

Not sure about gapps. Find out or ask in Q&A Thread about the ROM. If not included search for PA GApps on google.

About contacts: just make sure you've checked the contacts sync in your GMail acc (in settings). Never lost any contacts this way.

Heard about that once, not sure anymore. Try Advanced->fix permissions (in TWRP). Maybe that helps.

Hi, so I want to update my phone because i still have the 1st update from AT&T but I'm not on AT&T anymore because it was too expensive, I am on MetroPCS right now but every time I try to update it tells me that I can't because I'm not registered yet. Can somebody help me ? I was told to put an AT&T sim card but i don't have one and nobody i know has one... I'm on Cloudy G3 right now, but i'm planning to go back to stock. How can I update it without having to be on AT&T ? I can't find the answer anywhere .. I'm asking this question because my phone is only getting like 2 1/2 - 3h on screen on time with really light usage.. I was told that LG G2 was the king of battery life..

Hi, i am still have trouble taking the ota. i unrooted my phone using options in supersu. just had a thought that root was causing the trouble. but it didnt effect much. after unrooting i am still not able to take the ota. the 483.27mb update only goes to less then half way through and then phone restarts without any changes in the system.

Using the LG Mobile support tool, the tool still says that my phone is up to date, whereas i am on ZVC and the ZVD update has been made available long time ago. and the Zve update is also coming.

I used the TOT method to get back to stock, it did work. got back to stock kitkat zvc, had the OTA update, took it and was on zvd version. but the only problem with that was that my gsm sim was not working. everything was working fine except my gsm sim. does it happen with everyone else after tot'ing back to stock that gsm stops working? how can i make my gsm sim work after tot'ing back?

There is a guide to get GSM working on XDA. I'd say, tot back to stock, take the OTA (except the guide doesn't work on zvd) and then use the Guide. Sorry, no link, but you should find it... ;)

Any issues? If no, then leave it like that. That's probably due to those ar system apps and installed before the phone picks up the right date/time the first time. So it's the default which is usually 1970...

1. My device (fully stock) suddenly stopped rotating its screen.

No matter how many times I turn the rotation toggles on/off nothing works.

I even deleted apps & widgets that may control this option - still nothing.

Cannot boot even into download mode after changing Fast Dormancy setting

Hi,

I thought I could enter the Hidden Menu and change the Fast Dormancy setting into disabled, so I did it and wanted to reboot my phone. The phone turned off, and was doing its boot up procedure, while it started behaving abnormally. The LG logo popped up for about 5 seconds (so it didn't leave the bootloader), turned off for 10 seconds and then again the whole process repeated. I thought that was a bootloop, so I turned it off, entered Factory Reset menu, chose appropriate options and waited for the reset, but the phone didn't perform the action. Then I tried to get into download mode, but to no avail - the phone kept going with bootloop. (This could be linked with quite a low battery level, but I can't get it to charge.)

Could anyone help me get my phone back into function?

device not working after official upgrade

Hello,

Yesterday I got a brand new D802, I can't tell you what kernel it is or baseband because my device isn't working properly.

the problems began after I did an upgrade from D80210B to D80210D using the LG PC Suite.

after the upgrade was done, the touch screen got very erratic and I every place I've touched wasn't the right place (it acted like it wasn't calibrated)

I've tried to flash the stock ROM again using LG Flash Tool 2014 and using both Hong Kong 32GB D80210D_00.kdz and Hong Kong 32GB D80210B_00.kdz files but it didn't do any good.

I can't enter recovery mode, I get only the Factory reset screen (which I did twice and no good either).

one more thing I've noticed is that the device doesn't recognize any SIM card I out in it, at first it recognized my SIM (I have a giffgaff SIM) and after the upgrade the boot screen suddenly showed me the Vodafone logo.

I ever tried to put a Vodafone SIM in it, but the results were the same. If I'm not doing anything, the device boot itself into a loop, I can see the first screen of the initialization but that's it.

I've managed to get it to work one time but I couldn't even operate it on a basic level and the touch was erratic.

many thanks for any help that I would get.

Entering the stockrecovery is impossible without adb/custom ROM afaik. Are you really from Hongkong or why you took the HK version? Maybe taking a firmware with D802...20X would help as well. Anyways. Try updating the Touch firmware by doing the following:

Thanks for the reply.

I'm not from HK but my phone is, I bought it from a seller on eBay from HK so I thought maybe if I'd flushed it to its original sock ROM it would help.

I cannot even do the thins that you've suggested because the touch screen doesn't act as I want to. I cannot press the numbers because it acts like the screen isn't calibrated but not in a manner where I can predict where to press to get the wanted result.

Either way, I've already placed my phone in a lab and next week I would update what was wrong with it.

I've opened a new thread about it: http://xdaforums.com/lg-g2/help/device-upgrade-t2922034 where I would update once the device return from the lab.

many thanks :)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toluxa1:
Hello dear forumites. This site has really helped me alot in the past to solve so many problems so I am first of all using this opportunity to thank all those who dedicate time to do alot of work and assist others.

Few months ago I bought an LG G2 Sprint which was unlocked for GSM because I had to ship it to my country. It came rooted and I saw somethings at that time that I didnt understand much, things like Xposed etc. Now I have much idea about those. What got me confused was when I decided it is time I try my hands on custom roms. I chose to use Cloudy G3 V2.0. Now the thing is , the phone came with Rayglobe Flex ROM and after doing some research here on XDA i discovered that ROM is used to unlock sprint usually. Infact I didnt know Sprint LS980 is originally meant to be CDMA.

One thing I was initially confused about while trying to install CLoudy G3 was determining what exactly my version was. It came in a Sprint Box almost new, had LS980 written on it at the back, but when I go to hardware information in the phone settings, its shows

Model number : LG D802

Software information shows:

Android Version: 4.2.2

Baseband Version: M8974A- ........ (letters and figures follow)

Kernel Version: 3.4.0

Build number: Rayglobe Flex 3.5

Software Version: D80211Z

So i'm like, can it be a D802 and also be an LS980?

Now I followed the instructions here on XDA and installed Cloudy G3 and chose Sprint Variant in the option, but when it was done, it was just stock on the LG bootlogo, left it for over 30minutes, restarted it, same thing. I had to restore back the Rayglobe, thank God I backed it up.áá

Now I decided maybe it was the Rayglobe causing problems so why not return the phone back to stock, again I got all instructions here and followed. I got stock here for a while because when i went to the page to download the zip file that has the .tot file for Sprint I saw three different ones :

LS980ZV8_13.zip

LS980ZVA_01.zip

LS980ZVC_12.zip

I dont know the difference between these 3 but i chose the first one but just while LG Flash tool became to flash the stock ROM I chose, it stocked after about 2 secs and said the phone model.

Lastly I decided to try cloudy g3 again. First time I tried it that it got stock on bootlogo, I installed, went back and wiped phone before restarting. This time I just installed and restarting straight, by the time it restarted I had a black screen with:

[xxx] Fastboot mode started

[xxx]udc_start()

* forgot the numbers representing xxx but i think one was 980 or so.

Really sorry for typing this much I just wanted to spell out all the problems encoutered. After this I had to restore back the Rayglobe. Right Now I seem to be stock with this rayglobe. What do I do please.

Note: I have not been able to move to kitkat because when I go to software update, it always tells me I am already using the lastest even though its on 4.2.2.

I just discovered my Light sensor and rotation is not working, after the failed attempt to flash Cloudy G3 and also a failed attempt to Return to stock ROM. went back to the Rayglobe 3.5 that came with my phone but I just discovered my light sensor is not working. Phone not rotating. Camera takes pictures inverted (probably related to the rotation problem), screen doesn't go blank when I hold the phone close to my ear when in a call (probably related to light sensor), Auto brightness also not working. Please heeeeeeelp!!!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunandroid:
Well you have been able to get the G3 ROM working now? fine! :) No wonder you coldn't take the OTA: You found out that the Rayglobe ROM is a custom ROM. what to expect: The System OTA functionality is not working. With no custom ROM! So you'd have to flash it manually. Anyways not gonna explain how to because you are on cloudy G3 now.

The device is a LS980 and in system settings it only shows d802 because the D802 is working on gsm. so they modify a D802 ROM and flash it on the LS980. Like that you get it working on GSM.

So if you choose a ROM always pick the proper version (for LS980) and not the D802 version.

Your sensor problems are due to the JB Baseband. Search for the KK baseband (they got uploaded by cloudy as well, use google ;) ) and flash it in the recovery. No need to wipe anything. Just flash and reboot. Your issues should be gone then.

Thanks ao much for reply. it has been quite.helpful especially with the revelation that my device is actually an LS980 even though the hardware information shows its a.D802. But please note, I AM NOT ON CLOUDY G3. I couldnt get it to work. I installed it but.i was just stuck on LG bootlogo forever so i had to restore back the rayglobe which i still am on now. Also note that i am still on JB, infact i have never had KK on this phone so is it still okay to flash a KK baseband on it? Looking forward to your response.

Edit: Please i also wanna ask this, if for some reason I leave this ROM or return to stock, whichever, will my GSM stop working? Since you say it's the ROM making my GSM work?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunandroid:
To make cloudy g3 work, you have to be on KK baseband. Forgot that. First flash the KK Baseband and in the same recovery session you flash cloudy. should boot up and work fine.

No, never use a JB based rom with KK Baseband nor the other way around. Will cause such weird issues like no screenrotation and so on.

About your edit: Yeah and no. Basically yes, but there are guides to get gsm work even on stock ROM. ;)
