It would mean you'd now have the ability to use the KK/26A bootloader (aboot). As for the kernel, previously we had to use dummy devtree placeholders to work with the older JB bootloader (which was actually using a newer method!). Regardless, we have always been using KK kernel source. Basically, with bump we can now sign any boot/recovery image and allow it to pass the BL checks. I'll put together a couple of zips that allow you to switch to the 26A aboot (with bumped kernel/recovery) and revert back to the loki method (with 12b aboot, etc).

I forgot to add and exit code for the scripts...reuploaded the art patch & revert.

Just to be sure - the only thing needed if I don't want art is to flash the Rom?

So I just backed up data on both mine and girls phone then wiped system and data and cache installed 2.3 let it boot up then rebooted to recovery and restored data. Works flawlessly!

I'll probably try it and see what happens when I have some time.
[Verizon LG G2] TheUnladenSwallow:
xdabbeb I would absolutely love bumped ROM and recovery. The recovery would be thermally governed though right? I'm finishing a flash of the 26a kdz right now, I'll stay stock until those bump options are available. Thanks in advance.

I'm still confused about the art patch.. I use HD voice on 2.2 dalvik with no patch installed. Not planning on running art (like using xposed). Do I need a patch to now use this same setup on 2.3?
[Verizon LG G2] jasonsf:
I'm pretty sure you only need to install the ART patch if you want to use ART. XDABBEB specifically said you need the ART REVERT patch to undo the patch if you want to use HD Voice on Dalvik. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57020533&postcount=5541

So what sucks is when using video and having ok Google activated to work over any app, you cannot use video recording which is a pain in my arse to have to always turn it off. Especially when you need video quick. What can I do about this? I have the donate XCam settings is there a setting I can use in that that will disable Google for the camera?
[Verizon LG G2] xdabbeb:
bumped kernel/recovery + 26A aboot zips in the OP. Please read the note above the downloads. These were made with the original tool.

Yes. Audio Rec Check. It's there for a reason, though. EDIT: and there's no need to post the same question in two threads (though XCam was the appropriate one).
[Verizon LG G2] mmad81:
After the update I did a clean install and lost rich note.. did anyone else?
[Verizon LG G2] TheUnladenSwallow:
The changelog said he removed some more bloat. It's probably in the new lg apps zip.
[Verizon LG G2] jesssiii:
Clean install here too, without the LG zip either, and I have Richnote.
[Verizon LG G2] mmad81:
I just ended up redoing everything again and I have richnote back.. Thanks
[Verizon LG G2] xdabbeb:
There really isn't really an "advantage"...both work. It's more of a personal preference. Bump was/is a cleaner solution in that it it allows the use of the 26A bootloader.

Yes, what they all said...richnote is still there, but other junk was removed.

Not sure if this was addressed yet but I just flashed this today and I'm experiencing two things... 1) I can't seem to get Wi-Fi to stick. I constantly have to toggle it off then on again to get it working so things can load. Doesn't make sense. Is there a known fix for this? 2) I can't seem to find the build.prop for the lock screen so I can disable the LG lock screen and use aosp... is that not available in kit kat? The xposed modules I use don't even show the option for aosp lock screen anymore, which i found quite odd... Any help would be greatly appreciated... other than these things, usb debugging doesn't stick after reboot and I think that's about it.

As in not charging? Slow charging notification?

I generally use qi chargers, but I've never had an issue using any non stock charger, other than slow charging notification (which can be hidden with g2 xposed).

Stock charger is 1.8a. Anything less will trigger notification I'd presume. I wonder if a 2a tablet charger would trigger a notification...

Ok. To clarify before I brick my phone.

That and already be on twrp 2.6.3.3 or higher. After flashing bootstack zip reboot into recovery. Wipe. Flash rom. And should be fine.
[Verizon LG G2] DeaconBoogie:
iPad/iPod USB wall chargers won't work on this. It worked with 4.2.2 before I went to KitKat. I believe it's a kernel matter. I've not tried my Qi charger with KK yet because with 4.2.2 it kept making the phone reboot. :eek:

---------- Post added at 07:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:22 AM ----------

Additionally...

I've given up on finding a 1.8a charger that works. Or anything different from the factory one which I lost the day I got the phone (no idea how).

I've tried 2A tablet chargers: slow charge.

It's something with the cable/charger combo that makes the phone fast charge. Oddly, I have a 6-inch micro USB cable that will fast-charge about 50% of the time when connected to an HP laptop I use for work. Only that laptop USB port + that short cable will do it.

This is the only problem I have with this phone.
[Verizon LG G2] ffejy462:
Weird. Just out of curiosity, I tried several chargers last night. Samsung 0.8a, HTC 1a, Asus 2a, lg 1.8a, tylt vu qi, lg wcp 300 qi, and Nokia dt910 qi. Every one worked fine. All of them were also used at one time or another when I was on 4.2.2.

If you think it is a kernel issue, maybe try the stock 4.4.2 24a kernel instead of the linaro version that's in xdadebb's rom. I believe there's a link in the "how to manually update to 24a" forum.

---------- Post added at 07:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:35 AM ----------

Edit:

Do the 2a chargers actually charge slowly, or does the phone just indicate that? I'd bet they are actually charging at the phone's maximum limit (probably 1.8a), but since it's not the stock charger, it's showing a notification. I have all battery and charging notifications off because it was annoying anytime I used a different charger. I'm happy as long as it charges.

Edit edit :

The g2 has a lipo battery. From my RC days, we had to charge lipos differently and had to have a special lipo esc with low voltage detection on the car. At the time I didn't really think much about it, but since lipos are showing up more and more in phones, I'm guessing the g2 charger was designed specifically for lipo.

" LiPoly batteries must be charged carefully. The basic procedure is to begin at constant current until each cell reaches 4.2*V. The charger must then switch to a constant voltage mode, and the charging current will gradually be reduced as the charger holds the cell voltage at 4.2*V. This continues until the charge current has dropped to a small fraction of the initial charge rate, at which point the battery is considered fully charged. Some manufacturers specify 2%, others 3%, but other values are also possible. The difference in achieved capacity is slight."

" Lithium polymer-specific chargers are required in order to avoid fire and explosion." Yikes

Can someone help me out...I have this running fine in my phone

Just tried my wife's now whenever it's just about to finish installing the Rom I get failed

How do I fix this

[Verizon LG G2] Rodeojones:
After flashing the bootstack did you remember to reboot recovery then wipe everything - including system - prior to flashing the ROM?

[Verizon LG G2] DeaconBoogie:
Okay, I guess I wasn't entirely clear. The iPad/iPod USB wall chargers (actual Apple part) make the phone report "incompatible charger".

Any other USB wall-plug has charged the phone, but virtually all of them report "slow charging" on Jellybean. I've not had Kitkat long enough to judge.

The ONLY charger that has been able to do 1.8a charge has been the LG-supplied wall charger. It will charge the phone in a goddamn half-hour! It's crazy fast. The HP laptop I mentioned will do it almost that fast about 50% of the time with this weird little 6-inch USB cable and ONLY that cable.

This is the most finicky phone when it comes to charging...

The 26A bootstack is in the OP and you only need flash then reboot recovery again before flashing the new rom. It's compatible with all roms 24A works with, so really no downside to updating imo.

Just adding some personal feedback on v2.3.0:

1) If you're an OpenVPN client user, you'll need to manually install the VpnDialogs.apk and VpnDialogs.odex files from the LG Apps zip file else OpenVPN will not work.

2) This may or may not be a v2.3.0 issue, I'm still trying to debug it but I've noticed that after turning on my G2 that the GPS is on and locked as if you have the maps app opened or something (GPS icon fully on in the status bar). I didn't leave a GPS app running when I turn off the screen. I've seen this happen before when a GPS apps was still running in the background and just killing that app in the task manager would cause the GPS to shutdown. This does not seem to be the case now. I'll kill everything and the GPS stays on. I have to start a GPS app like Google Maps and then close it and that causes the GPS to turn off (Icon goes away in the status bar). I've even tried uninstalling apps that I installed after installing v2.3.0 in case those apps were misbehaving but it still happens. It's almost as if a background process / service, while the screen is off, asks for GPS info, the OS turns it on to get an updated location and then it gets stuck on.
[Verizon LG G2] thephatness:
Edit: looking back a few pages I see that it's just a UI glitch. It's just weird that it's showing up now.

I'm seeing this as well. I've tried clearing Google Search app data and reinstalling maps but the icon still appears after a few minutes of turning it off by going in and out of maps. I don't believe it has a lock because battery usage is normal. I can suppress it by going into Security, App Ops and disabling location for Google Play Services but that prevents some apps from working. Anyone else seeing this?
[Verizon LG G2] millerthyme2g0:

2.3 broke GPS Google maps navigation how do I fix don't know if it was the bumped zip I flashed or what
[Verizon LG G2] xdabbeb:
1) That's why the zip is provided. People can restore lesser-used items like that if they wish.

2) As mentioned previously, it's just a play services UI glitch under art. Purely cosmetic

No, it didn't. GPS/nav works just fine. Bump would have nothing to do with that regardless. I believe you mentioned restoring data. Try a clean install.
[Verizon LG G2] heymoe:
Yep, I understand that's way the other zips are provided. My statement for #1 was more of an FYI to anyone that uses OpenVPN and upgrades to v2.3.0 and is wondering why OpenVPN doesn't work anymore.

As for #2, my bad, I normally do a pretty good job of keeping up with this thread and must have missed the GPS thing being a UI glitch. Is this glitch new to v2.3.0 because I didn't have it with v2.2.0. Any work around or fix other than starting up Google Maps and closing it? I mean, it makes looking at the status bar to know what your G2 is doing GPS wise kind of useless without having to jump though a hoop or two to make sure GPS is or isn't actually actively on.
[Verizon LG G2] xdabbeb:
It's been happening since 2.0.0 with art enabled. Some never see it which leads me to believe that only certain apps are misbehaving. If it's bothering you, you could use dalvik or try narrowing down which app is using location services on your device and causing it. On the rare times I see it I just ignore it.
[Verizon LG G2] z3pp3lin:
Not necessarily but I guess it could be. I haven't heard of G2 Xposed causing issues but it hasn't been updated in a while. Was GV working properly before any tweaks? Was it a dirty flash or clean install? GV has issues at times. https://support.google.com/voice/known-issues/16871?hl=en

There's no problem with XPosed. Most likely it's google voice or that Verizon HD call fiasco maybe if you ever tried that.

[Verizon LG G2] heymoe:
It seems appear randomly so far for me. I did wipe /system + the caches and then re-installed v2.3.0 and so far I've only had the icon get stuck once. Granted I haven't been using the phone much since the re-install but before it seemed like it would get stuck every time I would turn the screen back on after clearing it the last time I turned on the screen.

Google Wallet

I'm not sure if this affects current 2.3 but I'm still running 2.0. I can't add a CC in Google Wallet by scan or manual method. Once I tap in either of those areas I get a message "Looks like another app is blocking access to Wallet. Turn off any apps that might be drawing over the screen and try again."

I thought maybe it had something to do with Swiftkey keyboard I'm using by default so I switched back to the default LG one and same result. I ended up doing it from my Nexus 7 and I think through a web browser another time.

---------- Post added at 05:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:00 AM ----------

All the data that I want or need is already backed up in the cloud. Contacts, application data, game data. To me it's easier and cleaner to wipe and start from scratch and reinstall all apps than to make a nandroid and restore that data. Plus generally sdcard isn't touched so if you have data there, you can always recall it later like my ringtones and notifcations.

[Verizon LG G2] ffejy462:
Google Wallet is working fine here... You can go to app ops and turn off "draw on top" by app. Fyi SuperSU also has tap jacking protection... The first app to come to mind that might be drawing on top is lux (there are quite a few apps that also do it).

I'm not sure where this app ops that you're speaking of but you led me to the right direction and it was Lux that was causing the issue. SuperSu already had the tap jacking enabled so that didn't do it. I just disabled Lux and I was able to get passed that screen. If it becomes and issue again where I need enter in another card, at least I can temporarily disabled Lux and fix the issue then turn it back on.
[Verizon LG G2] ffejy462:
App ops is in settings, security. Xdabbeb added it a few releases ago(ver 1.2.1). It allows you to disable some permissions per app. For example, you can disable location for Facebook.
