I think this Verizon update is to enable voLTE. I read an article saying Verizon was preparing for and update to enable that on the Samsung galaxy s5. So I'm sure that's what this could be. I could be wrong tho.

I just came back to this rom after a month of running one of the G3 roms. Those were good but you sacrifice some aspects of phone usage when the rom is not specifically for the Verizon G2. However, they were very good roms.

I reloaded this rom cause I wanted to have a stable rom. Also I remember this rom had a great camera. I just loaded a G3 theme and worked G2 Tweakbox to get this rom as close to a g3 rom.

I can't wait for a vzw specific g3 rom. Will it have the knock on lock code?

Also does anyone know how to get the navigation bar to disappear for certain apps.
[Verizon LG G2] Enter The Nexus:
Immersive mode works on most apps, it's built in.

Orrrrrr...by using G2 Tweakbox and G2 Tweaks, you could get rid of the navigation bar and use pie mode using Xposed.
[Verizon LG G2] ffejy462:
Probably the easiest way on a per app basis is with app settings xposed module. You can change many things on a per app basis.

App Settings, choose app, turn switch to on, fullscreen, immersive, save (disc icon), choose ok

Immersive mode will hide status bar and nav keys. Swipe up from bottom or top of the screen to display both temporarily.

Hey, would love to get some help for this. I bought an LG G2 last week and knew it was rooted and I am able to boot into recovery. The current ROM on this is a stock 24A ROM. How do i know if I need to bootstrack 24A to use this ROM on my phone? Or am I in the clear to just go through the normal procedure of flashing a new rom? Thank you
[Verizon LG G2] Saythis:
You read the first post, that's how :p
[Verizon LG G2] Prenominal:

[Verizon LG G2] cobija:
I did read the first page actually, but I am wondering if there is a way to check if the previous owner of the device has done the boostraping procedure for me already.
[Verizon LG G2] Saythis:
This device runs on a locked bootloader, so any rom that runs on this device will be "loki'd" which basically circumvents the bootloader. You can see what variant of the bootloader you're on by checking what baseband your phone is on.
[Verizon LG G2] da_reeseboy:
You said that you are running a stock 24a Rom, and you can boot into recovery. What recovery is it? Twrp , cwm, or stock?
[Verizon LG G2] cobija:
Its TWRP, vs 2.7.0.0.
[Verizon LG G2] da_reeseboy:
If you have twerp recovery and a 24a Rom (please confirm this for yourself) then you're set.

[Verizon LG G2] xdabbeb:
Well, it looks like 25A is on the way, though apparently vzw decided we didn't need the knock-code or new lockscreen. I'll see what I can do about that, as it really does seem silly that this is the only variant without them. If someone out there has run other variants' G2 roms could let me know if the newer lockscreens on other variants allow 3rd-party widgets (as I seem to remember reading somewhere that they don't) it would be appreciated. I don't wish to use them if that's the case.

[Verizon LG G2] TexasRules777:
I'm not on your stock version right now but i was able to put a widget on my lock screen... Just swiped to the right and hit the plus sign. It probably has something to do with g2 tweaks (exposed) but i didn't set any permissions for it.
[Verizon LG G2] Nafon:
I'm still on 1.1.1 and I've used Dashclock on my phone since I've had it (since 12B). I could be wrong, but I just swiped right and added Dashclock, and then deleted the stock LG clock widget. I also use G2 TweaksBox but don't see any options that would enable/disable this ability.
[Verizon LG G2] xdabbeb:
Don't worry about the lockscreen, guys. That's not what I've been looking for, but you'd have to have run another variants' stock G2 rom that has the updated lockscreen to know what I was talking about. The lockscreen album art isn't the highest priority for me anyway. If anything, I'd rather find a way to get knock-code implemented in the framework, but that will have to wait for now as it will be tedious (and boring) work.

The G3 port will happen eventually, but it also isn't the highest priority and I would appreciate it if the "when is it coming" questions would stop. Though I enjoyed the challenge of getting the rom ported with Cloudy and Tangjun, I didn't see any compelling reasons to actually run it on my device. It uses more resources (due to the xxxhdpi resources, increased running services/listeners, etc) is still somewhat buggy due to its nature, and doesn't really have any increased functionality. It's basically just a subjectively improved paintjob. As I do this for free on my own time, whether or not I'll be using it has to be my motivation and decide my priorities.

That said...here's a teaser of something that I think is a great deal more use and will be in the next release. Verizon is weird. They leave out a couple of items that every other G2 has had for some time, but add in much of what I needed to get something previously only available to the Korean variants:

[Verizon LG G2] freddie813:
Is it possible to replace just the dialer/phone app on this ROM? I've tried to use different dialers, but they do not replace the phone app once the call is in progress.

I love the ROM and the only thing that appeals to me about a G3 port is a somewhat more refined dialer. The dialer/phone app from my old ONE M7 was gorgeous, and is one of the few things I miss from that phone.
[Verizon LG G2] Lawlrus:
[MENTION=2941286]xdabbeb[/MENTION]

Art is most definitely most important, stock on art would have excellent battery life.

In response to your G3 comment, I guess I am assuming, correct me if I'm wrong, that your port will not have the roaming and MMS issues with stock messenger.

I think that is the biggest reason why people are anticipating it so much.

But its your ROM and your time, so take as much as you need for the port, and for the new build for that matter.

I'll be sure to keep tabs on the thread and yell at anyone that asks about the g3 port eta from now on for ya.

Been a while since I got to yell at someone on here.

Had this as well running this ROM, though could have been just a hardware issue. Phantom touches going bonkers, then lost knock-on. Full wipe and re-flashed this ROM didn't fix.

If you have xposed w/ gravity box installed, there's an option under 'Lockscreen tweaks', sub header 'widgets' to maximize widgets. Other modules probably have similar feature.

---------- Post added at 03:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:30 PM ----------

I'm having problems getting my status bar and notification bar to maintain proper opacity in Google Now on the Home screen w/ GNL, and my status bar to reliably remain 'black' when away from the Home screen.

By default this ROM leaves status bar grey. I have set the OS option for 'front home buttons' to Black.

Now, I use G2 Xposed module to force the status bar to black, but this is also unfortunately tied to the navigation bar, which is also redundantly forced to black. Other xposed modules don't seem to work when setting the status bar color for me.

1) Causes issue with status bar and navi bar when in Google Now. By default, GNL will reduce the transparency (increase opacity) on both bars when in Google Now, so the stock white characters are visible against the white background. G2 Xposed running and forcing the colors when away from the home screen seems to prevent GNL from modifying the transparency in Google Now. The result is both bars remain 100% transparent and it's next to impossible to see the icons when in Google Now against the white background.

2) Causes issue with status bar when switching to an app. When loading the app, the status bar will quickly be drawn in the color of the app's background before switching to black. For example, when I load maps with it's grey background, the status bar is temporarily drawn in light grey, then switches to black. More of an annoyance than anything.

All I'm trying to do here is get a reliable BLACK status bar when not in GNL home screen, and maintain proper opacity when swiping over to Google Now when in GNL. Perhaps this is more of an issue with the G2 Xposed module, and not the rom, but could someone point me in the direction of a better method to set by Status bar to black? I can use adb to push something.

I don't think gravitybox will work with the lg lockscreen.... At least it isn't for me on this rom. It should work on an aosp rom or at least it did when on jb we could enable an aosp lock screen.

I'm sure you're right. Just picked up my G2 last Friday and this is my first non-AOSP ROM in something like 5 years. Several Android UI crash loops later, I'm realizing some of these limitations :D
[Verizon LG G2] ffejy462:
Surprisingly quite a few features of gravitybox work on the g2 with the stock rom. Pie controls, most status bar options, aosp quick settings (once you enable aosp quick settings with g2 tweaks box), unc, smart radio, sleep action (nice to have if using Nova launcher or similar), notification heads up, etc..... If you're new to the g2, I'd highly recommend g2 tweaks box and g2 xposed modules. G2 xposed is no longer being developed, but it's still good. G2 tweaks box has some nice g3 features among other things.

What's NOT to do with LG G2?

Thank you.
[Verizon LG G2] Enter The Nexus:
You could restore download mode by flashing the zip in the OP. You could still get to TWRP manually if something happens...
[Verizon LG G2] ffejy462:
Yes, this rom is very safe and extremely stable. There has been an update to twrp to 2.7.1.0 and an unofficial update to 2.7.1.1 with thermal control. Since you already are on KitKat, there is no need to flash anything other than rom (unless you rather have download mode than fastboot). As far as other roms go, the best bet would be to read their respective threads to get a feel of the rom's stability.

As far as what not to do, depending on your skill level, the list could be large, but for the most part, general root guidelines and "common sense" applies. I can't really think of anything g2 specific though. There have been in the past reports of permanent white lines after flashing aosp roms (perhaps other roms as well), which, I think, was traced back to high cpu loads in recovery which caused overheating (twrp thermal control).

This will sound noobish but I have had a recovery since kk was released, which version and install method is recommended for the vs980? The whole black lines, white lines thing has me freaked out.
[Verizon LG G2] Jimi Mack:
The lines thing is a hardware that can be caused by too much flashing and or overheating your phone. I can recommend the link below, this has thermal control so when you are in Recovery your chips are not running at full tilt and this helps reduce the issue of the Lines happening.
