[AT&T LG Optimus G] Electriccars:
I've been using this phone with Beanstalk ROM for about 36 days. I love the features but I'm tired of the subpar data speeds.

I've had trouble getting 1Mb/s at times (including now) and never even 1/2 as fast as the 20Mb/s it got that first day that I tested it with my brother's SIM after I unlocked it the day I got it.

Even a fresh install of Beanstalk only got around 8Mb/s with JB radio or modded JB radio.

I'm seriously considering switching to modded stock for the better speeds. But I'll of course be testing the latest PA, CM, MOKEE and any others first.

Which ROM have you been using on T-Mobile? And what have your data speeds been like?

Thanks. :)

P.S. I live in Los Angeles.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Nick N:
AOSP (4.4.2) and TwistedKat. You should be getting 6-13MBs most of the time. I am using the AT&T JB hybrid radio and fast.t-mobile APN

The 20MBs was probably LTE speed with a fresh SIM (never installed in your G before). There are multiple threads around here about that. :crying:
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Electriccars:
Thanks. :)

I'll go ahead and do a speed test on fresh installs of stock and these and compare them.

Hopefully it wasn't LTE I was seeing.

Although that does fit the bill, the G had never had a T-Mobile sim before as it was freshly unlocked 5 minutes before. :(
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Electriccars:
So everytime I flash with phils advanced touch recovery it says "please upgrade binary" how do I do that?

Anyway, so (I think) I flashed the at&t JB modem and tried several different ROMs, fresh flashes with no gapps.

TwistedKat (I REALLY like it, but how do you disable the hardware button lights when using softkeys?) gave me 6.5Mb/s in the first test, but only 2.8Mb/s in the 3rd test. Hmm.

ArtMod gave me 3.5Mb/s in the first but 7.25Mb/s in the 2nd and 3rd tests. So far unfortunately the best. :(

I reflashed the modem in case I didn't at the beginning and flashed PA.

PA's signal icon wouldn't turn white but I was able to do a test anyway. It gave me 5.5Mb/s

I then flashed the modded JB modem and PA's signal still wouldn't turn white but it gave me 4.5Mb/s.

Reflashing PA didn't help.

SlimKat with modded JB modem also wouldn't turn the icon white... uh oh. gave me: 6.5Mb/s

Don't like slim Moving on...

CM11: icon also stays orange. :( 5.2Mb/s with stock JB radio no change. I'm going to stick with stock JB, seems like the best radio.

restored efs from weeks ago zip backup just in case that got messed up and that's why it stays orange.

Reflashed TwistedKat and data icon STILL staying orange!? (and gave me 5.4Mb/s) What's going on? I'm pretty sure it wasn't doing this before I reflashed the JB radio. And now no matter what I do it stays orange. :-/

AOSP 4.4: 4.5Mb/s

Rooted stock JB: Won't connect to data period. :'-( What do I do know? This sucks! No matter what I do, no matter which ROM, no matter what Radio it won't connect like it did before. :(

Edit: Restored my Beanstalk backup from this morning and the data icon turns white.

Edit 2: flashed stock rooted JB and it still doesn't connect.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Nick N:
What are your APN settings? Are you using a newer micro SIM or an older cut SIM?

---------- Post added at 03:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:31 PM ----------

Unfortunately we can't have LTE on TMo at this time. Download an app called Advance Signal Status (free in Play Store) and see what the 2G/3G section displays about signal strength.

Also network type should toggle between UMTS and HSPA+
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Electriccars:
Okay, before I restored my backup I never changed the APN on the stock ROM :silly: I think that might be why it doesn't connect to data. And every aosp rom I've checked the APN.

After wiping my restored backup I'm booting into Artmod again to see if it works.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] Electriccars:
I'm using TwistedKat but the call speaker volume is really low compared to Beanstalk. Is there a way to increase it?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Electriccars:
So according to that app I'm receiving no LTE data at all. Bummer.

But is there a fix for calls? Speaker phone is about half as loud as the Beanstalk speaker, and when I don't have it on speaker audio's non-existant in both directions.

Here is the story in a nutshell I flashed xdabbeb's bootstack, then his rom. Then I did something stupid such as wipe everything folks, I mean everything. So my phone then restarted and I am able to get into recovery twrp 2.7.

I have tried in twrp to sideload, mount neither which work.

I have my drivers installed it says in device manager when I plug the phone up for download mode

android- galaxy nexus adb

and under ports it says LGE AndroidNet for VZW ADB Interface com41

I tried lg flash tool, tried with old vs98010b rom

dll: vs980

bin: vs98010b_13.tot

I really need help guys, are there any adb commands I can type or are there any drivers I need to install
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
Ok when i hold the up and plug in it takes me to fastboot

[500] fastboot mode started

[550] udc_start()

[720] reset

[730] portcharge

[740] reset

[750] portcharge

and the device only registers as android under other on my computer

i've installed lg drivers
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
How can you fastboot flash? When I hold up and plug in for fastboot my computer wont register a driver just shows android what are the commands and how do I use fastboot
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
Download mode is not going to work because the laf partition (this allows for download mode to work) is wiped when you flash xdabbeb's bootstack in favor of fastboot mode.

I suggest you pm xdabbeb; he will guide you on the steps to using the necessary fastboot commands to get your phone working again. He's already helped a few people that were in the same situation as you are in right now.

Fastboot is good because you can write certain partitons at a time without having to .tot and wipe your whole phone.

You could also flash his xdabbeb_vs98024a_laf.zip http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407586639 file in TWRP 2.7 to restore download mode, but you will end up wiping your whole phone by using the LG Flash Tool, even your sd card when you restore your phone.

You said you "wiped everything", I'm not sure if that means your sd card too, if so, then that might be the easiest thing to do since you still have access to recovery. You will need an otg cable and a flash drive to mount the flash drive in TWRP 2.7 and flash the file, unless you can side load the file with adb.

Either way, like I mentioned earlier, it might be a good idea to pm xdabbeb first.
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
Hey my phone is already wiped even sdcard, but the thing is i cant flash that file because I can not get it on my phone. So ill ask xdabbeb the fastboot commands. Yeah and I read about the otg cable, ordered one of those babies should be here this saturday and hopefully it will mount my flash drive in that case id be golden untill then ill see what mr xdabbeb has to say.

cant sideload

everytime i try to sideload the file it just says cant read file or something like that

And I really appreciate you responding. Always nice to get support from somebody when your just sitting here and your phone seems like it hasnt been working for an eternity. Almost depressing not hearing from anyhbody and just seeing all the views but no replys. Thank you
[Verizon LG G2] xdabbeb:
Hey there...Fastboot is about as basic/simple/reliable as it comes. If you have adb/fastboot set up properly then command is:

fastboot flash <partition> <filename>

for example:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

In your case, you claim to have a working recovery (twrp 2.7), but are unable to copy files from your computer to your phone. It sounds like you don't have the proper drivers installed so that you can use adb from recovery. This is a common/known issue with windows and I believe I replied to you in the rom thread already about this, but you need to install/use Koush's universal adb driver and simply copy the rom file over to your phone using the following command:

adb push <filename> /sdcard/

After you have the file there you can flash it as normal in recovery.

If you want to use a kdz/tot method to restore your phone, just download the laf zip file from my thread, extract the laf.img file from the zip, and use the following command to put it in place:

fastboot flash laf laf.img

Then you can go about the tot restore method described in the thread here. You don't need to put the tot file itself on your phone. It just needs to be on your computer.
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
I get to sdk and open cmd

type adb devices it says

List of devices attached

0215817d960ce580	sideload

Then I type adb push rom.zip /sdcard/

error: closed

When phone is plugged in for adb device manager says under android device- Google galaxy Nexus ADB Interface

I have universal drivers installed and I goto device manger to update drivers where clockworkmod is installed and it doesnt do anything

Fastboot it says in other devices in device manager

Android

PCI Data Acquisition and Signal Processing Controller

I type fastboot flash recovery laf.img

<waiting for device>
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
Wait, I'm confused here a little bit. Are you trying to do sideload mode in TWRP or are you using fastboot mode?

And the command you typed is not correct fastboot flash recovery laf.img...you don't want to do that...this would flash the laf.img in your recovery partition.

xdabbeb referenced two methods to you...one was pushing a Rom to your sdcard and then flashing that Rom in TWRP to get your phone booting...the other was to flash the laf.img file and do a .tot if that's what you prefer.

It seems like you want to do a .tot restore, so do the second method xdabbeb suggested.

Get into fastboot mode and type fastboot flash laf laf.img

Make sure you use the correct laf.img...you can extract it from the zip in my previous post/link.

After this your download mode should be working again.
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
I was trying either one

For fastboot I downloaded xdabbebs laf

the image file in his file is laf.img, if thats not the right file then where is the recovery.img

So the recovery.img would have been one that i made?

and laf is so I can us lg tool to tot flash?
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
Even when i try to flash the laf it keeps saying waiting for device. I have the drivers koushu installed and lg
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
Yes, download xdabbeb's laf.img, it's the link I gave you originally. You will have to take out the laf.img file from the zip file that is called xdabbeb_vs98024a_laf.zip

The recovery command he gave was just an example, there was no need for you to use it.

Yes, flashing the laf.img will fix your download mode and you will be able to do the .tot method.
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
What am I suppose to do about it saying wiating for device, its not detecting it
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
That sounds like a driver issue. Reboot your computer and turn off the phone and start again. See if that helps. You can also remove the drivers and re-install...I suggest you reboot your computer every time you install new drivers.

EDIT:

Are you using a newer adb.exe from your android sdk? If you have ioroot25 installed on your computer I suggest you use the folder/files from there. It has a newer adb.exe in there; put your laf.img file in that folder too if you do use that instead, and run the command prompt from within that folder.
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
Ok when my phone is plugged into my comp, im on win 7 it shows up as android under other devices when started in fastboot mode. When I browse to the driver location to load for the android it says no driver found for it.
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
Yes i just installed the sdk like 2 days ago so I know its current.

As far as the driver situation, why would I need to uninstall if it isnt even installing a driver.

This is terrible
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
For me it shows up under "ADB Interface", but I don't have the universal driver installed.

I didn't realize it wasn't installing the driver for you.

You have to get that driver going or you won't be able to get your phone fixed. Maybe try a different usb port or a different computer.
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
Man yeah mine doesnt look at all like that. Im uninstalling lg driver and universal one and clearing temp folder. Then restart and reinstall maybe that will work. So its just the koushu driver that works for fastboot and adb right?
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
Yeah, it should work. I've read posts by others stating that it works.
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
Yep just reinstalled the universal drivers, plug phone up into fastboot and still get the same result
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
Can you perhaps send me that driver you have? Because I know if you have that one and it works for you it SHOULD work for me. Murphs law is killing me. I can pm you my email address
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
Check your pm's.
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
It wont install it, I goto device manger update driver browse to where the file is you gave me and nothing says no driver installed
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
Check your pm's again.
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
Just checking to make sure all i have to do is update driver to the folder of the driver right? Just want to check make sure im not doing something wrong. Yeah didnt work either for me. so it seems my problem is not getting a driver to load
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
You should try a different computer. Otherwise you'll have to wait for your usb otg cable.
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
just tried it and same thing it just keeps showing up as android and when type fastboot devices nothing pops up still
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
Just type the flash command to flash the laf.img and see what it does.
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
I did just says waiting for device
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
It's using different drivers in win 8 than it does in win 7. Check your pm.
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
It just keeps saying no driver found
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
Ok new update something is happening. Ok you know the laf.img I tried to adb sideload just to try and well it said

starting adb sideload feature

installing /data/media/sideload.zip

checking for md5 file

skipping md5 check: no md5 file found

e:zip file is corrupt

updating partition details

How do I get an image file to flash it wont let me flash my rom.zip file

keeps saying cannot read rom.zip
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
It let me sideload the image file and its in media as sideload.zip

So what can I do with this new found info is there a recovery image I can install and how do i run it

what can I do
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
Why don't you try sideloading the laf zip and not the image....if you can do that, then you can flash it through twrp.

I believe twrp also has terminal command functions. You should be able to copy the image file to the laf partition that way too.
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
IT WORKED omfg, Im acutally in download mode now. I LOVE YOU no clue why it worked but it worked.
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
Cool! Glad it worked out for you :good:
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
Ok so the download mode worked now, but I cant get the drivers for the phone to work so I can run download mode.
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
Still driver issues. Have you tried another PC yet?
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
yep tried another pc didnt work though
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
Are you sure your usb cable is working properly?

EDIT:

Since you got sideloading to work, have you tried sideloading xdabbeb's Rom and flashing it like you did the laf zip?
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
yeah i also tried my wifes gs4 cable
[Verizon LG G2] krazienluv10:
Gosh im stuck as well for the last couple days, coming from an s3 i was used to wiping everything...when i try to side load it states "starting ADB sideload feature" and stops there.... where do i find the command prompt? I also installed the universal driver and states its a nexus driver but dissapears, but nothing else pops up when i plug in the phone to the pc

Very worried and not sure what to do....
[Verizon LG G2] krazienluv10:
ok, im trying to use the lg flash tool and when i click the yellow arrow on the top right it says port 1 com 41 ready. Sounds good but when i reboot into download mode again as it says, all my lg screen states "fastboot: processing commands" and thats it? The lg flash tool also just states ready and nothing is being done. Downloaded the universal driver as posted in prev posts and just having a hard time. Please help anyone

Thanks!!!
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
When are you getting your OTG cable? It seems like you're just going to have to wait for that since you can't get the drivers installed on your PC.

Are you sure you have an updated adb.exe. Side loading requires a newer adb to work propely.

Did you go into device manager and change the port to port 41 in the driver settings on your PC?
[Verizon LG G2] krazienluv10:
thanks for getting back, when i do the lg flash tool yes i made sure to change the port to 41, it just says "ready" ... not sure if its still driver issue or something else.

As for the adb im not sure if i have an updated adb.exe. Honestly im not sure, like others im just trying to find anyway possible to get this fixed. I have downloaded soo may files that im just getting overwhelmed

please help thanks
[Verizon LG G2] mjones73:
Where are you changing it?
[Verizon LG G2] krazienluv10:
changing it in device manager then port then I tab and change in advance settings I believe... away from the comp but pretty sure its 41... when I click on the arrow it does some activity then states ready... I reboot in download mode but nothing happens and stays at ready
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
Hey howdy was gone to drill weekend so didnt have internet. My otg cable should be here tomorrow, im going to give that a try. For some reason adb sideload wont let me load a rom size file, I can get the laf to get download mode and I can even get the bootstack but not the rom. As far as the drivers my comp and my laptop still won't recognize them now. Im in limbo till this otg cable gets here.
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
It shouldn't be an issue once you have the otg cable; it will read the file right off of the flash drive.

You might try reinstalling the drivers after it's up and running, that may solve your driver issues.
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
yeah got the otg cable plugged it in with my flash drive and guess what it doesnt detect it.
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
You have to mount it first...did you do that?

When in recovery, select the Mount tab and tick the USB-OTG box.

What size of flash drive are you using? I tried my 128GB and it wouldn't recognize it (it might have been the formatting), but when I tried my 32GB flash drive it worked fine. Now I just use the Meenova adapter with a 64GB micro sd card in it.
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
well it has to show something up before I can mount it. I click mount otg and well nothing
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
I edited my previous post, not sure if you caught that.
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
this is just a 4gb flash drive
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
it wont let me check hte usb otg slot and its plugged in
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
What's the format on your flash drive? FAT32?

If not, format it to FAT32 and see what it does then.
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
OK bouchigo I can not CAN NOT thank you enough for sticking with me through this process. I appreciate you and your help

OK GUYS THE FIX IS IF BOOTSTACK SCREWS YOU GET AN OTG CABLE FOR $1.69 WITH FREE SHIPPING OFF EBAY

FORMAT THE FLASH DRIVE TO FAT32 THEN MOUNT IN TWRP OR CWM AND INSTALL BOOTSTACK THEN 24A ROM.
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
Cool, glad you're back up and booting.

I suggest you remove all the drivers and re-install them again. Use the LG United drivers, that's what I used and I haven't had any problems with them.

Drivers: http://ceadlabs.com/LG_VZW_United_WHQL_v2.11.1.exe
[Verizon LG G2] hardheart1:
Do you have root?

If you did a total wipe you may need to flash root from your custom recovery and then try all over again.
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
He's already up and running.
[Verizon LG G2] penuch:
Ok so I bricked my phone by flashing the bootstack. Following the steps in earlier post I was able to flash the laf.img using terminal. I now have access to download mode, what is my next step in getting my phone working again. I have a mac so I am not able to use the LG flash tool.
[Verizon LG G2] timenewton:
Are you running a recovery? Like twrp or cwm and if so what version?

No clue about drivers for mac

Maybe you would have to run emulated windows and load drivers that way. I looked and could not find any for mac

But best bet if you do have a recovery mode, then I would just buy a 1.69 otg cable from ebay with free shipping to mount a usb stick in fat32 with your fastboot and rom on it.

No cross flashing is a no for the device, some people do it at their own risk but with d800 a tot cross flash wouldn't work with the dll and tot file not matching the bin/model check just stick to the roms for your d800, as for flashing you can check out the back to stock thread on the general section and the method you would use is the flash tool with tot files
