Thanks. I usually call them, but hopefully talking to chat will cut down on the time needed.

In regards to the Q&A, I'm confused as to why it's not in the first post. That makes no sense to me.

I'm having a few issues with v3.1.2

* Both Note apps don't work. Neither one starts, and one FC's

* Camera won't take pics. Always says there is no room on internal storage, despite being 60% empty

* Gmail won't show anything, saying the app isn't "secure"

I did the install completely clean. Wipe EVERYTHING, then installed.
[Verizon LG G2] ffejy462:
I can assure you all of these work perfectly fine.

Verify md5 of download.

In recovery, wipe dalvik, cache, data, and system. Do not wipe internal storage.

Flash rom.

Reboot system.

Verify apps are working.

Install apps from play store.

If you restore anything from titanium backup (or similar), only restore data for those apps that actually need it. (refer to op)

[Verizon LG G2] moonpie28:
I think it needs to be removed in the ROM or you can use ROM toolbox or xposed. Verizon does it on their phones. I got used to it. It's a pain.
[Verizon LG G2] jtblalock:
Hey guys,

I've tried about everything I'm familiar with and some stuff I'm not to try to get my G2 back up and running. I got the Nexus 6P today and am giving my G2 to my wife. I wanted it to be a fresh install and clear off the SD card to make it as nice as possible for her. I was already running this ROM (3.1.2) so I just wanted to reflash it. I went to TWRP (2.8.6.3) and did an advanced wipe (Dalvik Cache, Data, Cache, Internal) then I copied a fresh download (verified the md5) of the rom to the sd card and flashed it. Rebooted system and waited a long time for it to boot. It never did so I did all different combos of wiping (data/cache) it, then flashing the 39A bootstack, then reflashing 3.1.2 OR flashing the bootstack, then wiping, then flashing the rom OR flashing the bootstack, reboot into recovery, wipe it, then flash the rom.

I copied what I think was my latest nandroid backup to my PC before starting all this, but even if I put it into the TWRP/Backups folder it doesn't show up. It's folder name is "2015-08-05--10-27-28_LRX22G" if that offers any info. I did a fresh nandroid backup right before I wiped everything, but then I immediately turned around and stupidly wiped it before copying it to my desktop.

I thought maybe it took a while to boot because some roms that I've flashed in the past with older devices have taken a long time, but I waited 5 minutes several times, 10-15 minutes a couple of times, and 25-30 minutes once and all I saw was the LG logo and then the animated, sparkly LG logo for a long time.

If there's any other info I can give that would help you diagnose the problem please let me know. I greatly appreciate any advice that can be offered so I can get my wife off a 4 year old Galaxy Nexus. Thanks, guys!

EDIT: I solved this problem by returning to stock with the TOT method from this tutorial: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
[Verizon LG G2] moonpie28:
My 1st thought would be you're not waiting long enough. If you're SURE (and 10-20 minutes is sure) I'd work on restoring your nand. Copy it to phone and whole folder needs to go into backups. From TWRP mount storage first then browse to backup. That should work. You're doing everything right.

PS just factory reset from settings once you're back up and running.
[Verizon LG G2] jtblalock:
Thanks for responding to me, moonpie. I appreciate all advice!

So I just tried again and waited a full 30 minutes and it didn't change from the sparkling LG boot logo. :\ I'll try to work on restoring the nand tomorrow, but I'm not quite sure what you mean by "From TWRP mount storage first then browse to backup." I can browse around if I go to the "install" section first, but when I go to restore there isn't a way to navigate like there is in the install section. When I go to TWRP's Mount section I have "Data" and "Cache" checked currently. It seems as though I should be able to find it when I go to the Restore section, but I can't. Is there something else I'm missing?

To try to get the nand backup onto my device I went into Windows Explorer then went into LG-VS980 -> Internal Storage -> TWRP -> Backups and copied the nand backup folder from a couple of months ago into there.

Regarding your post script, to be honest I've never factory reset from the settings so I don't know exactly what it does. I would assume it would give me a fresh install of xdabebb's 3.1.2 if that's the rom on the device. Is that correct?

Thanks again, moonpie!

[Verizon LG G2] moonpie28:
Under the checkboxes for cache system etc. there is a thin box that says storage. Click on that. That will mount it. I have USB OTG so that shows up along with internal storage. I need to choose one or the other. It's just a thought.

The factory reset will erase everything like it's brand new. Just takes a few minutes at most. Easier than all the other flashing especially with a family member (just in case something gets left over).

Good luck!
[Verizon LG G2] jtblalock:
So I thought I had solved it, but it was just a tease. I followed your suggestion of trying to restore from a backup. From doing other reading I discovered that the reason I couldn't see my backup was because I manually created the "Backups" folder in /TWRP/. The permissions weren't set correctly so I deleted the whole TWRP folder and did a backup of...nothing. I took that backups folder out and put in the one I saved from August and it finally showed up when I went to the restore section of TWRP.

I will note that the new backup folder was put inside a folder with a name like e8245a82924 or something and it couldn't see my backup from August until I deleted the fresh backup and put the old backup inside that e824a4820275 folder. When I restored it, it said it was successful and I rebooted system and it did the normal LG logo thing with one slight difference. This time it played the the little jingle that it has always played when booting up so I thought it had worked, but it's still trying to boot right now and it's going on 30-40 minutes.

I guess it's possible that because the new backup is the one that generated the e82742894204 folder it may not have worked because I hijacked it with the old backup, but from the restore section it doesn't even show that folder, just the one with the date in it.

I'm hoping that doing a "successful" restoration of a backup and it still not booting will maybe shed light on the underlying problem. Again, I really appreciate you and people like you that love helping people like me just because you can.

What about trying to flash an earlier version of xdabbeb's ROM or even a different ROM and then come back to this one? I know I needed the 39A bootstack to do this ROM, but would I have to flash an older bootstack to flash an older ROM? Maybe xdabbeb's 2.3.0?

EDIT: I solved this problem by returning to stock with the TOT method from this tutorial: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
[Verizon LG G2] moonpie28:
It sounds like maybe a partition has become corrupt. There is a way of restoring with a .tot file...It's here on XDA. If you do that you need to reroot and flash recovery again. If it's your wife's maybe just leave it. Anyway yes definitely try another ROM before that. Cloudy 3.3 is very popular and you won't need to flash a bootstack. A lot of ROM's in the international section can be flashed on Verizon variant. Start with Cloudy then just do a .tot return to stock if that doesn't work. I'm at work or would link. Good Luck!
[Verizon LG G2] jtblalock:
Hey Moonpie,

Thanks a ton for the help. I wanted to let you know how I fixed it. After my previous message I wasn't sure enough which ROM to try to install, but I had read elsewhere about returning to stock with a .tot file. I used this tutorial for anyone that got stuck like I did ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2432476 ) using the TOT method. It took me back to stock and I rerooted, reinstalled TWRP, and flashed xdabebb's 39A bootstack and ROM.

I would've updated earlier, but I fixed it RIGHT before I had to go out and run some errands. Thanks again, Moonpie! Your latest suggestion was the right one even though I had already done it!
[Verizon LG G2] ffejy462:
In the future, try repair fs in twrp. I had the same (maybe, maybe not) issue with my old nexus 7, and rather than go back to completely stock (which is easy enough on a nexus), that took care of it.

[Verizon LG G2] xdabbeb:
I assume you mean the cve fixes. No idea what you mean by boot.

I still have my G2, and though I don't use it as much lately I'd be up for making a hybrid (vs982.5) of the VS980AA release along with the 5.1.1 VS98535B release. I'd need the AA kdz first, however, and I haven't seen it posted anywhere.
[Verizon LG G2] Haxcid:
I am sorry if I am confusing. What I meant is like certain versions of your ROM require a different boot stack, 24a, 29b, 39a, as a fictional example. As far as I can tell the current LG release is 3AA, Would this current ROM load with that boot stack?

I am not sure if this is official or not but

If coming from CM13, would you recommend wiping system/data/cache and continuing instructions, or full factory reset, or back to stock..?
[Verizon LG G2] TheYoz:
Every time I switch back to a stock based ROM I always factory reset, re-flash xda's 39A bootstack, restart to recovery and flash which ever version I want. Maybe an overkill but I never have issues outside of ROM bugs.
[Verizon LG G2] lancespahr:
Alright, so no back to stock flash correct? And by factory reset do you mean full wipe or just factory reset (like in TWRP)

Thick white bars in place of the LG logo during boot

I apologize xdabbeb. I know this is not the proper place so please feel free to ignore.

I have been running one of your roms 99% of the two years I've had my G2 and tonight I thought I would check out cloudyG2 2.2 so I wiped, flashed his kitkat baseband then the rom (coming from xdabbeb 3.1.2) everything went smoothly but I was unsuccessful in booting up so I came up with a really bad idea to trying flash your 12b_bootstack then rebooting back into recovery but my screen just went all white. I powered off and tried a hard reset but I just get a either a completely white screen or three thick white bars in place of the LG logo (during boot).

After looking around I a little I assume this is related to JDI/LGIT issue but I have no idea how to proceed since I can't see my screen and would be appreciate any help.

Also, I tried to adb but I'm not showing any devices attached.

Thank you.

You would be better off to at least have posted this in the Q&A not the development portion.

If its happening in your recovery then the recovery is the wrong panel type AFAIK.

Try installing a new recovery, I'm assuming youre on a really old version? Recovery and all ROMs, SHOULD be using panel detection at this point

2 options -

1. root, install 24a bootstack, recovery and rom

2. take OTA, root, install MicroMod77 freedom tools to get recovery, and then flash xdadebb rom in recovery

I believe end result of both is going to be the same right? Is one of these methods safer/easier?

Throw back question:

I am currently running version 2.3.0 on 3 phones (have been since it dropped). My phone has started developing an issue with bluetooth. It occasionally says "unfortunately, bluetooth has stopped..." I do not seem to have any real issue with any of my currently paired devices (I use my bluetooth paired to a speaker ALL day for 3-4 days per week at work plus in the car to and from work with no issue). The biggest issue is that I cannot pair my heart rate monitor to my phone, it pairs fine with both other phones (all 3 phones are verizon LG G2). Is there a way I can copy the bluetooth firmware from one of the other phones and install that on my phone? I am thinking something got corrupt in one of those files. I cleared both Bluetooth Cache and Data but no luck, it still will not pair. Odd that it will work on both other phones just not mine.

Thanks

First of all, thanks for the hard work, I recently installed 3.1.2 on my G2 and have been largely pleased so far.

An issue that I've noticed is that there basically seems to be no way to get the voicemail app to work when using Verizon prepaid service because prepaid doesn't seem to have the visual voicemail feature available. You essentially have to opt out of it every single time you press the voicemail key in dialer. I've tried removing the voicemail app, but this only results in the message "com.lge.vvm has stopped" or something very close to that effect. I realize this technically isn't a bug, but it does have a minor effect on usability for non-postpay plan users. I'll probably get used to using *86 again, but if there were some kind of workaround for this it would be lovely.
