"Unfortunately com.lge.hiddenmenu has stopped" issue

I'm getting an "Unfortunately com.lge.hiddenmenu has stopped" error message when I try to select "Touch Firmware Upgrade" or "Touch Firmware Version". I have tried a couple different methods of downloading and accessing the hidden menu, before successfully getting to the menu with the Touch Firmware Upgrade option. I first tried xdabbeb's process(downloaded his APK) "http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2467302" but was unable to find the option to Update the firmware from his custom verizon hidden menu. I then used this process to download and flash this zip file, and was successful in navigating to the firmware upgrade option, although it was not located in the same place mentioned in this process. To find it, I loaded the hidden menu, selected "HW Device Test", "Settings", "Touch Firmware Upgrade", then I get the "Unfortunately com.lge.hiddenmenu has stopped" message, and it loads back to the previous page. Any thoughts as to what is happening here, and how to successfully do this Firmware upgrade and fix my knock on?

I have a verizon LG G2 running with xdabbeb's vs980 2.3.0, build # KOT491.VS98026A, kernel version 3.4.0-perf-g5e82726, android version 4.4.2.

It's already baked into the ROM. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=55065679

Flash a backup if you have one. If not then try a dirty flash to get rid of the one you installed.
[Verizon LG G2] dantor19:
Is that true even with a verizon variant?

if its baked into the rom, then how do I access it once I restore to a backup? Keep in mind that I have a verizon variant.

That totally worked!!!

That totally worked! Thanks so much for the help z3pp3lin. I flashed an old backup that I made before downloading the hidden menu file, and dialed ##5473784236368 send, selected "HW device test", "touch test" and then "touch firmware upgtade". Knock on restored!

I just wish this in information was easier to find. None of the answers I found specified that xdabbeb's rom would have a baked in hidden menu. Thanks again!

LG g2 update error?

I have been having errors on my g2, I'm trying to update to lollipop but when it trys to update there an error 00 something? Do I need to unroot the phone first to update to lollipop
[Verizon LG G2] Robshr:
Yes you can't do an ota update while rooted with a custom recovery either unroot and update then reroot or find a custom lollipop ROM to flash
[Verizon LG G2] nobe1976:
Sounds like you have either a modified system app which needs to be back to original state or a missing system app.

Updating stock while rooted is fine and doesn't cause updated failure.

One just had to re root the device after firmware update is complete, root will not survive.

Unfortunately, I've got permission denied error; I'm using Android 5.0.2.

I followed first steps until I've reached launching hiddenmenu from terminal where the previous error was displayed.

Any suggestions ?

Hi,

i am having troubles following this. I have lg g2 vs980 4g with verizon rom. Should this work? Please give me steps. Thank you.

---------- Post added at 10:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:47 AM ----------

btw, it is running on lollipop...i havent done any customisations on this phone. Just the stock rom out from the box given by verizon. Please help COZ I AM HAVING TROUBLES WITH THE KNOCK ON FEATURE. THE KNOCK OFF FEATURE IS OK.
[Verizon LG G2] Robshr:
You have to be rooted so you can flash otherwise the instructions are in the op and yes it'll work with the g2 with either ROM
[Verizon LG G2] SHAMPOOMYBULLETS:
Hi,

Rooted my phone and installed cm 12.1 successfully...however im still having issues with the hidden menu to come up follwing the steps...This is really a pain. Verizon vs9804G running on cm12.1 lollipop. Please help as the touch of this phone is literally going crazy everytime!
[Verizon LG G2] Robshr:
So you flashed the zip them went into terminal emulater typed su hit enter then typed hiddenmenu and hit enter and what happened next nothing or did you get an error message or some other type of message?

here it is... I am losing hopes now... :(

I will wait for your suggestions. Thanks!
[Verizon LG G2] Robshr:
This is what it should look like in terminal emulater just before you hit enter before the hidden menu comes up I think you're typing something wrong

Again in terminal emulater type su hit enter them type hiddenmenu then press enter again then the hidden menu should pop up
[Verizon LG G2] SHAMPOOMYBULLETS:
I have followed this and rebooted my phone a couple of times already... :( is there any other way for this?
[Verizon LG G2] Robshr:
The only other thing I could suggest is try flashing a stock ROM then flashing the hidden menu zip and trying it that way it might have something to do with cm 12.1 of it does work it should still fix your problem after restoring cm 12.1

[Verizon LG G2] Robshr:
You are flashing this zip right

https://mega.co.nz/#!bpJ0DDbA!pSDJcaHFnXulkGyA2s-cIQldTrLbv-FVspD2RzW97Ts

If you flash this zip you don't have to place any files manually you just have to type in the commands in terminal emulater

Just check in system/app and make sure the hidden menu apk is the and the permissions are set rw-r-r
[Verizon LG G2] SHAMPOOMYBULLETS:
the mega URL youve given is not valid is not valid anymore... can you send the file unto another site? been working for this for about 7 hours now...and COUNTING...i really want this fix!

[T-Mobile LG G3] sublimaze:
I agree with most of what you said, except I think the S5 has a better screen overall. I came from a Note 2, so I am used to the saturated colors. But regardless of your preference of saturated vs natural colors, I think most people would agree that the S5 has better brightness and viewing angles. I also think text on the G3 is oversharpened/overprocessed.

I think LG got the "feel" of the G3 just right. The S5 is a freaking brick and looks like it was beaten with an ugly stick. The M8 is disproportionately tall, and also heavy & slippery.

As far as sound, the G3 falls in between. The S5 speaker is anemic. The M8 blows everything else out of the water. I always listen to music via headphones or my car system. But if you absolutely *must* listen to audio via speakerphone, then the M8 has no equal. I must admit, sharing videos with friends is a much more pleasant experience on the M8. The G3 speaker does a respectable job, but you still have to cup your hand around the back to hear anything (at least at my age).

Despite its flaws (which are very minor), I think the G3 is the phone to beat this year. The Note 4 will no doubt offer some serious competition, but I think the Note line targets a different demographic. People that don't want or need the Note's special features will probably find the G3 to be an almost perfect compromise of size, features and performance.
[T-Mobile LG G3] icoman:
I don't have my G3 yet, but based on images I've seen online, I, ever so slightly, prefer the G3's photos as it seems to get slightly better detail. What I mean is that, at least from what I'm seeing, it looks like the S5 is trying to over-sharpen details in software instead of just using what is available through the sensor. For instance, outlines of leaves in front of the bright sky shows a tiny bit extra outlining to me.

Oddly enough, this shouldn't be the case since the S5 has a slightly larger sensor, more megapixels and a slightly wider aperture @ f/2.2. Perhaps that new isocell sensor isn't all it's cracked up to be or maybe they just haven't fine tuned the software for it. However, with the G3 you also get dual flash, which is a feature that might come in handy for macro shots, and there is that laser focus thingy the G3 has. So, I dunno, I was leaning towards the S5 myself, but after seeing test photos and reading reviews about all the other aspects of the phone itself I went with the G3.

Perhaps completely manual shooting with the S5 would render better results than the G3.

In the end though, I just wanted something that could compete with my old T-mobile 4G Slide. My Google Nexus 4 certainly didn't and I'm glad it's paid off and done with.
[T-Mobile LG G3] boosting1bar:
Have to disagree there, I think the G3 pictures are better. I took some pics of my car today and was actually quite impressed with how they came out compared to similar shots at the same place and same time of day and same subject matter. I do agree the HDR shots from the S5 are better, but who uses that anyway
[T-Mobile LG G3] icoman:
I wonder if it is due to the lens itself?

Perhaps the G3 is using a better lens (Sony?) and it is of better quality than what Samsung is using on the S5. There is actually a list of people with cracked and broken S5 lenses, so I'm guessing the glass they are using isn't very good.

From what I've seen, the M8 appears to take cleaner night shots, at least with macro and no flash, However; I do not know how low the ISO settings will go with it. I think the G3 can do ISO 50, so if the image stabilization is as good as LG claims and the focus laser is really fast it should end up taking pretty good night shots in manual mode.

In the end I think all three are good cameras for a cell phone, I just feel like the G3 has more options for covering different kinds of shooting. Then again, I haven't used any of these phones personally yet.:silly:
[T-Mobile LG G3] sic0048:
I suspect with the XPOSED module Viper4Android, you can tweak the sound on the G3 to be on par with boomsound or even better.

Also, have you taken many pictures in low light? It's my understanding that the g3 has a much better camera for low light than the s5. It's not as good in direct sunlight, but better everywhere else making it a better "overall" camera. I don't have an s5 to compare the G3 to, so I'm just going off what I've read. It would be nice to hear from someone that has both.

I must not be getting the same bluetooth results as you...

This is the worst I've heard in the past few years, as far as bluetooth media pairing goes..

it sounds like the bit rate of a 320 mp3 goes down to 96 or 128.

I'm quite concerned about this...

I'm pairing up to a VW/Dynaudio setup.

Iphone, GS4, lumia 925...all sound 10x better.

did you do any bluetooth tweaks?
[T-Mobile LG G3] sublimaze:
The M7/M8 have front facing stereo speakers. The G3 has one small speaker on the back, facing away from the user. Sorry, but no amount of mods will make the G3 external speaker sound like the M7/M8.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] NutritionN:
OK, TomTom on the Artemis is really getting the best of me. I downloaded my one free USA map that comes with the device. I liked what I saw, so I decided to purchase another USA regional map from TomTom's site. The description said that you needed Navigator 5 or 6 for the map to work.

Long story short, I can't get the built-in TomTom app to recognize my purchased map (Plains USA). I've moved it around to different directories on my 1 GB microSD with no luck anywhere.

I've emailed TomTom support three times in the past week with no response. Anyone else in the USA getting TomTom to work beyond the one free map?
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Big Purple Penguin:
I have had the 'North America' map working with TT6. Sounds like you may have a TT5 map.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] bwallis:
I did the same thing and did speak to customer service at TomTom. The download maps do not work with the Artemis version of the software. I was told that I would have to buy the full version for the US which comes with all US/Canada maps. On a good note, they did refund my purchase price for the non-functioning maps.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] pinhead:
I think that TomTom 6 can recognize TomTom 5 maps but TT 5 cannot seem to recognize TT 6 maps. I have TT 5 installed from the factory on my HP 6915 and I have TT 6 added on as an upgrade. My full US map for TT6 shows in TT6, as does the TT5 map of Chicago, but in TT5 the only one that shows is the map of Chicago.

I just went ahead and got the North America map so I wouldn't have to mess around with individual cities and ending up off of the map.

So I was working on installing the Gohma Rom and was in the middle of using adb to reboot into fastboot mode and as soon as I sent the command to unlock the boot loader my watch froze completely. I can no longer detect it via adb and I cant input any more commands. I was hoping some of the more experienced people here could help me as I would really not like losing my brand new watch.
