Was curious if video recording was fixed or not.. Video playback didn't work for me (at all) on a previous build - but if it's working now, I may give it a shot to see if anything has been fixed other than that.

I really like CM, and hope to have it fully working on the L90 some day. :/

Thanks for the update OP. :)
[LG Optimus L90] jb3p76:
Thanks for this ss. I couldn't figure out if it was just me or if WiFi is broken on this ROM. I tried everything I could think of, from dirty flashes to full wipes to flashing boot partitions from other projects. It seems like I can not get WiFi to work on this phone using any CM11 or derivatives. It can see my network, and it let's me enter the PSK, but then it just does nothing further. Its as if I never touched the network to begin with. I can try over and over, before and after rebooting, and it will never complete the connect. The only thing I haven't trued is turning off Mac filtering in the router...but cm11 doesn't mask or fake the mac address does it? How did you get WiFi to work?
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Wifi is not broken. Are you sure you've downloaded my ROM and not Quarx ROM? Broken wifi is common with the D415 and Quarx ROM.

Also, did you follow my installation instructions in the OP?
[LG Optimus L90] v_2ryann:
What type of encryption are you using on your wireless router? Usually with WPA/WPA2 you can pick TKIP or AES or both.

Might try setting it to both, as I think android uses TKIP.

Also turn off the mac filtering just to see if that affects it. If it does, you can find your mac under settings->About Phone->Status->Wi-Fi Mac address.

cm12 d415

Hey guys newbie here trying to build a cm12 ROM.... I have it building but I'm getting errors that I have no idea how to fix and I was wondering if anyone would be willing to help me via remote desktop thanks
[LG Optimus L90] SamsungIsBetterThanApple:
Yeah, a different package helped with the gapps, but WiFi was broken and my phone thought I was out of memory. So nothing worked.

The 12/02 ROM works fine.
[LG Optimus L90] DevoutDevelopment:
Huh, that's odd. Glad you for it working :D
[LG Optimus L90] Ryan Saf:
Never used a ROM before, if I flash, will new builds automatically come in the settings app as updates?
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Cmon now, I'm old but not absent minded...

No they won't. Well, CM Updater will report there are updates, but there aren't. I forgot to disable CM Updater in my last couple builds. The D415 DOES NOT have official support by CyanogenMod like the D410 and D405 variants. Updating to one of those builds will yield some nasty results.
[LG Optimus L90] BellaMay95:
So now I'm curious: what exactly is the difference between the D415 and the D405/410? I know the D415 is the US version and the others are the worldwide ones...but how would that make me not be able to flash a D405 build on my D415 or vice versa? Or is it something else that causes this incompatibility?
[LG Optimus L90] wojtek267:
At first there was one rom for all variants but D415 users would report some bugs that were absent on 410/405 variants, as far as I remember (which means my memory might be failing)
[LG Optimus L90] jasonmerc:
I just thought of this... Do you think the reason video recording isn't working for some is because we have different variants of the D415 itself? I have the D415RD, but I believe there is also a D415BK and also just a plain old D415.
[LG Optimus L90] Rabid Flasher:
I think the bk and rd may refer to some type of color coding. As mine is a D415RD and my battery cover and outer body is a dull red. And I'm fairly sure I've seen a D415 with a black battery cover and outer shell.
[LG Optimus L90] Riku Azhurlar:
Believe so
[LG Optimus L90] D1358531:
Don't know if it was stated already, but does the latest build support the tap to wake?
[LG Optimus L90] Riku Azhurlar:
Tap to wake is at the moment not working

Failed 10/22 >> 12/02 Upgrade

I tried flashing the 12/02 ROM over top of the 10/22 one I've been running for so long, and damn if it didn't screw things up pretty bad.

First thing I noticed was the big triangle notification saying "Need to set backup account". And then when I tried to press it, it didn't run anything. When I went into Settings, I saw that all my usual accounts seemed to be there.

Then I noticed was that there were 0 bars on the cell signal. I also tried to use WiFi, and it would just sit there and say Authenticating..

There also seemed to be no root available, because Titanium Backup complained about it

So I went into TWRP and flashed the old 10/22 ROM, and also used "wipe cache/Dalvik" because I wasn't sure what kind of mess had been left behind. Now I've been sitting at the LG logo for about 10 minutes, so I don't think it's simply writing all the AOT stuff like it does between upgrades. However, after a while, I can get into an ADB shell and look around, although it's kind of wonky and I can't run su.

I've rebooted several times, reflashed the 10/22 ROM, and nothing seems to be helping. Any ideas?
[LG Optimus L90] Riku Azhurlar:
Do a fuuuuuul wipe. Make sure you have you have the ROM zip still and wipe data cache boot and system and install the zip
[LG Optimus L90] voxluna:
Yes, wiping will fix whatever's wrong here, but it's normally unnecessary between same-version upgrades -- I used to flash one nightly on top of another for weeks at a time, unless specifically warned against it.

Of course, that's what TWRP is for, until you find out that all those meticulous backups you've been making won't actually restore because of who knows what.
[LG Optimus L90] Riku Azhurlar:
Yep
[LG Optimus L90] voxluna:
So long as I haven't missed some new need to wipe, and should keep doing things the same way I have, I'll just ascribe this to some sort of weird one-off event. I'll use this opportunity to figure out what's wrong with my TWRP, which I've read is a problem in 2.8.1.0 fixable by downgrading.
[LG Optimus L90] voxluna:
TWRP problems on D415 specifically

I don't know why, but on a hunch, I just figured I would flash 10/22 back onto the phone using CWM instead of TWRP. And voila, the phone booted up just fine. That brings up an important point: I'm not sure I've ever used TWRP to install a version of the D415 ROMs.

So in other words, I tried a couple times to flash 10/22 back with TWRP 2.8.1.0, to no avail. Then I use CWM, and suddenly it works. And when I tried making a data backup and restoring it with CWM, it didn't fail like TWRP did a few minutes ago.

Surely this can't be just me (at least, I'd like to think I know what I'm doing -- I've been rooting phones and flashing ROMs for six years now). I'm using the D415-specific image from the thread Teamwin Recovery 2.8.1.0 For LG L90 D4xx. Is anyone else having problems with TWRP 2.8.1.0 on the D415?
[LG Optimus L90] D1358531:
I've been backing up, flashing and restoring with TWRP with no problems.
[LG Optimus L90] Riku Azhurlar:
That's always a possibilitty
[LG Optimus L90] shoxxy:
Hi

As i said several Times, PLease post recovery log file if you have Problems with my TWRP , this weekend i should be have some time , so i will build an twrp with D415 stock kernel. (maybe it helps) .....

what i dont understand yet: on some D415 everything is working on other not ?

best regards
[LG Optimus L90] voxluna:
I wish I had saved a log when that happened. This being a D415 thread, I wanted to poll folks here (and not just all D4xx users) before I posted to your side. I'll test a few things today and can get you one if restore fails again. That's the only error message I've ever seen.

So far, it seems I'm the only one with issues, but maybe a specialized build could be useful... we do have specific problems not suffered by other variants (hence this ROM). And you're right, sometimes they appear for certain people, while for others, they don't.
[LG Optimus L90] ppillow:
Is there anyway to have GPS more precise? I play ingress and it just doesn't follow me lol its annoying
[LG Optimus L90] jb3p76:
-100%.

-100%. It's pretty dang difficult to even get to fastboot on this device if one can not follow specific instruction.

It was definitely the mac filtering. For some reason, putting cm11 or derivitive (pac-man) on my phone changes the mac reported from 64:89:9A:63:63:8F to 50:55:27:56:02:63. Why? Hell IDK. But I changed the mac on the router and everything is good again. Crazy, I know, but I've double checked. Verions C and E of stock use the first mac, even after it has been changed to the second one. I've never heard of anything like this. The closest thing that comes to mind is the 'new' mac one gets when bridging interfaces on desktop devices.

:highfive: Thanks all, and especially thanks to you shinobisoft for all the work you've put in to this.
[LG Optimus L90] SamsungIsBetterThanApple:
One small thing, my battery life goes so low so fast. For example, I volunteer at a hospital for fours a day and I bring my phone with me (obviously). When I get back from my shifts my battery went from 100℅-80℅. It never did that with my stock ROM. With my stock ROM it went from 100℅-98℅.
[LG Optimus L90] Ilxaot:
If you have no service your battery dies quicker.
[LG Optimus L90] Rusell:
True, In school it goes from 100% to 26%. I don't leave anything running in the background or use it, My college is 5 hours long and find this annoying tbh, I only leave it on in case to receive calls and messages that are important.

In stock it sometimes stays in 100% or least 96%, MINDBLOWING
[LG Optimus L90] SamsungIsBetterThanApple:
I have service
[LG Optimus L90] voxluna:
Why battery is depleted faster with no signal

Although battery percentage should be a simple correlation to its voltage, maybe more apps are running in that ROM, or some are working harder by design (say, re-nice'd for better performance). Or there could be a different way of calculating remaining battery life, where the voltage drop is not constant and linear. But the more likely cause is some process running amok.

Fun fact! The reason the battery dies more quickly when there's no signal? In order to maximize battery life. the phone is constantly adjusting the radio's power output to the antenna, to transmit the minimum level necessary to maintain a good connection.

When the signal is weaker -- if you're indoors, cell frequencies can't penetrate well (except AWS) -- the radio increases the wattage to compensate for this impaired reception, and transmission, which in turn uses more battery. It's like raising the volume on a TV to overcome the sound of a vacuum cleaner running. When there's no signal at all, the radio is broadcasting at full blast, trying to establish a connection with any available tower.

For something we take for granted, cellular has all sorts of fascinating details.
[LG Optimus L90] Riku Azhurlar:
Also could be that the stock kernel puts performance as the tuner. Enable developer option then in your settings should be a performance controller try changing it to interactive

video

Is video playback working for anybody?
[LG Optimus L90] SamsungIsBetterThanApple:
I have no idea what happened?! I went into recovery mode to install the 12/13 update, for CM11, and it is now CWM instead of TWRP! I never installed CWM. I installed TWRP. I installed the update using CWM and the update does not work. It says there isn't enough storage (it says there is only 200mb of room (in total!)) and the WiFi is broken. Because I have CWM I couldn't restore my old data. Can anyone help me figure why this happened? It is so weird.
[LG Optimus L90] DevoutDevelopment:
Works a lot better for me in some apps on the newest update, but some apps not at all
[LG Optimus L90] Razer206:
What's your LG build date :confused: Mines 10/2014 I received last month.... I tried all Cm 11 & Pac with no luck.... I tried one of my kernels builds with no luck for video. :eek:
[LG Optimus L90] DevoutDevelopment:
Mine is 05/2014, still no recording at all :(
[LG Optimus L90] Razer206:
Try flashing Twrp again using Flashify, thats if you can boot up...... if not try fastboot :rolleyes: If all doesn't work try LG unbrick tool Kdz ;)
[LG Optimus L90] bravho:
Just flash twrp again. (flash zip in recovery or image with rashr, or other app) Than you can restore your backups etc.

Maybe you enabled "update CM recovery"? This happend with me one time.
[LG Optimus L90] kpost:
This makes me sad, I was so hopeful that my warranty replacement with a build date of 5/14 combined with a new release would have recording. The camera does have different numbers than my original d415 (with a build date of 10/14).

Code/build question for those that know.... I know this may seem overly simplistic and ignorant (I can't build on android, so it may be the dumbest question of the year) but I have read on here that for a lot of users a certain third party camera app can video record (not beat quality but can do it), the accepted theory of why (from what I saw) had to do with the app using third party library files. So my question for devs and knowledgeable modders....why would it not be possible to add those library files to our system? If it's about copyright I would have thought library files would be like most codecs and open source. If it's a they would mess with system library files, then I could think of 2 options....mod the stock camera to place its 'call' function to a different folder (may need some of the system apps copied to this folder also) or if the library files can be in the normal system folder can a 'call sheet' be placed and referenced somewhere (maybe build.prop), call sheet may be the wrong term but what I mean is directions like a webpage gives a browser....the whole if this than that kind of directions, example: use these library files (originals) as default but if a program that uses the video recorder (either by app, permission, hardware access or best uses the call to the original library file for video recording (kind of a redirect) could maybe be perimeters) then use these files.

Holy run on sentence... sorry if already thought of or if it was a stupid idea but figured I would let my sleep deprived Monday morning brain put it out there.

Also wondering if anyone had looked through the code and library files side by side of a d415 that video fully functioned and one like mine :-\ ? If not if someone can tell me what files would need looked at and someone can send me files of a fully functioning d415 I can maybe have a look, I can't build in android, but I have a great eye for code (web designer for too long). I make no promises (very busy mom) but I would try.

Edited because either I can't spell or the nexus flo on lollipop and I are having a disagreement.

If anyone wants to save me time by telling me the 3rd party video app used it would be great, I can search though.

---------- Post added at 09:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:23 AM ----------

Found this in the l9 original development section in the cm11 thread...maybe relative. They had a video issue as well and the fix was a modded library file.

Yeah, I turned on the Update CM Recovery my mistake. My bad, thanks for the help.

SMS used in CM10 12.02

I just did a clean install of the 12/02 ROM and noticed there's no SMS messaging app at all, and it defaults to Hangouts. I'm not sure if my Titanium Backup save of my SMS/MMS is going to work properly, because I never used Hangouts for SMS before. What did the SMS client used to be in the 10/22 ROM? That install was clean, too.
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Depending on the Gapps package you're using its possible CMs messaging app got removed. I DID NOT remove it from the ROM. Check the downloaded ROMs contents in /system/app.
[LG Optimus L90] voxluna:
The PA GApps comparison chart does say it removes stock/AOSP client. But what's weird is, it didn't remove it before, on a clean install using 10/22 with GApps (I can't find anything real quick that shows that package's behavior). In that setup, I had both an SMS client and Hangouts, which AFAIK shouldn't happen.

There's a useful result, at least Because this is a dry run, I went ahead and restored my TiBackup of SMS, and it did incorporate text messages into Hangouts. just fine. I think this is a database that the SMS app of your choice can access.

I do have a backup of the original client, so it's OK. I just don't like not knowing. ;)
[LG Optimus L90] SamsungIsBetterThanApple:
That is strange that it is Hangouts instead of SMS. Who even uses Hangouts?
[LG Optimus L90] SamsungIsBetterThanApple:
I got an update for CM 11. The version is 12/17. I tried it out and it does the same thing as the 12/5 build. It says I have 200 mb of storage and the WiFi is broken. Anyone else having this problem?
[LG Optimus L90] janejunx:
Pretty sure it's been established that updating through the Updater is something that is not supposed to be done.
[LG Optimus L90] Ilxaot:
I don't see a problem with using Hangouts or Messenger for SMS. Stock SMS isn't the most full-featured to begin with, but it can easily be installed manually if necessary(:

Well sorry, I don't really feel inclined yo read through over a hundred pages to find my answer. Thanks for the response but I can do without the sarcasm.

[MENTION=4501943]shinobisoft[/MENTION]

Could you (when you find the time) add CM updater to the "not working" list (do not use ). Thanks brother. [emoji3]
[LG Optimus L90] voxluna:
Yeah, I have switched over to mySMS because it supports sending messages from a PC. So does MightyText, but it didn't look as good and it had no app on the phone side.
[LG Optimus L90] Ilxaot:
You should look into Pushbullet, less battery usage
[LG Optimus L90] voxluna:
According to this article comparing 4 apps that put SMS on the desktop, "You cannot directly respond to a text through Pushbullet", which is why I went with mySMS. I'm pretty agnostic about it, though -- if something with the same features works better, I might switch.
[LG Optimus L90] voxluna:
A bit OT here, but I previously posted that Hangouts doesn't support MMS. I was wrong, it does. I'm still sticking with mySMS because of the desktop send support, but I wanted to correct the error. I've also changed the original post to reflect this.
[LG Optimus L90] BIatu:
I have the same issue too, it wont save settings or anything. And its not cm updater, cause the first time i flashed any from was the latest nightly back in oct/nov. Then went to the unoffical. The other night i tried 12.13.14 and i got the same result.
[LG Optimus L90] voxluna:
I haven't used it yet, but I think the one mentioned earlier in this thread is VideoFX.
[LG Optimus L90] jb3p76:
Sounds like maybe it was the "OFFICIAL" cm update. May be time to restore your backup or re-flash 12.02.
[LG Optimus L90] guest_2011:
Curious if video recording works, 1080 or 720? I lost 1080 in s3 with cm11.
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Even thought the L90 is now officially supported by CyanogenMod, technically only the international versions are supported. At the time of my writing this post, I am the only one supporting the LG-D415 variant for CM11.

I have also added to the OP, last night actually, that CM Updater doesn't work, until I figure out how to implement it myself as Quarx did when he first starting building for the L90. I will try to remember to fully disable CM Updater in my next build. Probably this weekend.
[LG Optimus L90] voxluna:
You would think that if one L90 was on the official list, the T-Mobile variant would be too. I know that's too idealistic an outlook, but still, I didn't know that any of them were that close to passing CTS or whatever.

I was wondering how so many people were in here lately saying nightlies didn't work....

And we appreciate that.
[LG Optimus L90] Riku Azhurlar:
I believe the line for the CM updater is either in the full_w7.Mk or w7.Mk can't remember also he got cyanogenmod updater working by getting official support and from what I've read cm is the strictist when I come to getting that official tag because they gotta keep up some sort of "image" PAC is more laid back about it I already mentioned gps is finicky at best and they still said as soon as I get a good RC-3 build they'd more than willingly give support.
[LG Optimus L90] shoxxy:
Hi

before quarx getting official support, he used:

https://github.com/xdarklight/android_packages_apps_CMUpdater

https://github.com/xdarklight/android_external_helper_cmupdaterincremental

demonslayer12349

yes you are right this time he add the url to device.mk (i think so ;) )

This app does work in 800x480, the interesting thing is the file format is .avi stock and all other cameras I downloaded were recording in mp4 or should I say making empty mp4 files.
[LG Optimus L90] Ilxaot:
That article is outdated. Look into it again. (:
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Thanks shoxxy, but I'm already aware of those. I've disabled the URI in BoardConfig.mk but there is also a hard-coded URI in the resources of CM Updater itself. The built-in URL points directly to CyanogenMod where as the URI that's used from BoardConfig.mk can point anywhere needed. If the URI doesn't exist in BoardConfig.mk, CM Updater defaults to checking the hard-coded URL instead. For the next build, I'm going to remove CM Updater all together until I can implement what I've stated below.

What I need to figure out it how to implement it so that my builds get checked instead of CM's. I have to have web space somewhere for starters. Where my web site is hosted, I only have 1 GB of storage so I'd basically only be able to store two builds on the server at a time. Not that big of a deal as I can write a script to handle uploading a new build as well as removing the oldest build from the server. But it would be much easier if I didn't have to worry about the older builds.
[LG Optimus L90] F459:
Hosting

Hey, I have 30 GB of spare space and 200 GB of traffic (100 Mb/s connection, but hosted in Frankfurt) on my VPS that I could devote to hosting CM builds.

So, with WiFi calling, is it the boot.img or the ROM itself that doesn't support it

Main reason I am asking is because I have a Virgin Mobile phone that doesn't support WiFi calling, but if I install the T-Mobile version of the ROM, with the virgin mobile boot.img, WiFi calling and texting with my T-Mobile sim works.
[LG Optimus L90] coolbarlow:
I believe that it is the ROM itself that does not have the framework required for T-Mobile WiFi calling. Although as I was browsing through the pacrom dialer there are some options for WiFi calling. It would be interesting to see if the ims or sip accounts could be routed through T-Mobile to still display the native/Sim phone number
