We can wait for G3 Lollipop port for our G2

LG in their typical evil ways will backtrack and eventually cancel Lollipop plans for our G2.

Mark my words.
[G2 General] mwedo:
LG delivered KK to OG with (almost) no hiccups and G2 is their first true success in regard to smartphones. So why would they drop G2 all together?
[G2 General] errikosd:
I don't (or don't want to) think so.

My assessment is that LG is delaying Android 5.0 for the G2, because they want to sell as many G3s as possible. With the given price difference between G2 and G3, almost everyone would pick G2 over G3, if both have Lollipop.
[G2 General] Shaolin007:
Very true bro
[G2 General] xtrustkillx:
Yes, but it doesnt mean there will be no leaks until then. We need script to search theirs servers like in p990 days [emoji3]
[G2 General] KarlDag:
Not only that but from all the reviews I've read I actually consider the G2 a better buy than the G3. Better battery life, camera almost on par, no oversharpening on screen and no performance hit from having to push too many pixels on screen... I think the current SOC aren't really made for QHD, first one that can really do it is the snapdragon 805. Next year should be great.

---------- Post added at 05:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:36 PM ----------

Of course I meant better buy if running a custom ROM :) stock is just so damn ugly
[G2 General] wulsic:
[MENTION=2733504]xtrustkillx[/MENTION] I still remember that from script to search their servers for v30 xD.

But I think that LG also like erriokosd said that they are delaying it also because of g3 abit and they also want to make stable/good builds cause if you remember from the past, their builds weren't always the best but now they are good:good:. It's more worth to wait for a good stockrom with all kinds of features and with not too much bugs instead of to rush to release lollipop.

Don't be afraid LG will definetly make a lollipop port for the G2.

But I don't know or they are going to use the g3 systemui or the old g2ui but updated for lollipop, if the last one then it would also explain the time.
[G2 General] da_reeseboy:
I'm guessing it didn't reboot and update? The basics are the update file needs renamed dlpkgfile (without an extension) and placed in the /cache/fota folder, permissions set, the command file created in /cache/recovery (debated), then the "am start..." command which causes the restart and upgrade.
[G2 General] luvtorev:
I renamed file to dlpkgfile without adding .bin but file continues to be .bin, if this is wrong how do I change it so that it has no extension, thanks. As far as permissions, do I check all boxes when propmpted in root explorer? Thanks
[G2 General] da_reeseboy:
Permissions - that's what I do. I'm sure they're not all needed but it works.

I'm not sure how to get rid of the .bin in root explorer but it does need to go. I'll play and see if I can figure it out.

[G2 General] player911:
Oh Snap!

Wireless STORAGE is a welcome addition. Seriously missing that on the G3 Rom I have been running.

It isn't worth losing root though. So I am just going to wait for that.
[G2 General] schwem:
That's weird. The G3 roms I have used have wireless charging and so do the AOSP/ CM12 lollipop roms. I even have a cheap charging pad and it works well. Only thing is on cm12 roms it'll say same charge level as when started charging until a reboot

[G2 General] Nafon:
Its like no one at LG uses their own software. How do they deal with that status bar lol. My only major complaint about not having root so far.

You'd be better off asking/lookong in the xcam G2 thread. I think its a beta version. I tried it but it doesn't work very well right now. I could only take one DNG and every subsequent attempt would fail until I toggles normal raw mode. And quality was bad but that could have been because it was very low light.

1) How did you keep root with 39A?

2) ADB shell is run from a computer. Terminal Emulator is a shell on device, so you would just run that command without "ADB shell"
[G2 General] da_reeseboy:
I completely agree.
[G2 General] player911:
Sorry I meant Wireless STORAGE.

Wireless Charging is a hardware thing. No software needed.

The Wireless Storage option was removed in all of the G3 roms and other roms. It was specific to the G2. Because the Wireless Storage was removed in "newer" revisions, everyone assumed LG was doing away with it. Samba FileSharing is a good replacement but having the LG version in the Notification shade toggles was nice.

The password would also randomly change each time, so it was a bit more secure and easier to turn off and on.
[G2 General] jesssiii:
Me, I used the survive OTA in SuperSU. But though it survived to 39A, it doesn't work. Not rooted.

[G2 General] MicroMod777:
Did my best to do a detailed guide for the VS980 LP manual ota found here:

http://xdaforums.com/verizon-g2/development/manual-ota-vs980-39a-lollipop-t3046228
[G2 General] Nafon:
As xdabbeb explained a couple days ago, the problem is that the way SU is started changed with lollipop. So most/all of the SU files are still there after the OTA, but the service isn't running (that's my understanding at least). Official SuperSU uses a modified app_process file for lollipop, but the OTA checks that file for changes before running, and throws an error if it doesn't match the file it expected.

But somehow, su660ics appears to have working SU/root on 39A.

This is a reason to update by itself! Been missing it sooo mutch...:silly:

Can you explain how you acquired the 5.0.2 system and VS980 4G model designation while still remaining on 4.4 aboot? Also what is the 'modified baseband' exactly? Are you running some sort of port or did you piece this together somehow?
[G2 General] abdel12345:
I just wanted to mention another thing I like about the update. They got rid of that old obnoxious vibration when plugging in your charger and headphones that was really loud and long. Now it's a quick short one to notify you that it's in and the charger notification that used to slide up from the bottom that was annoying also went away. I keep finding all these small refinements that make me like it even more.

I'm on 91% right now a.c. charging so once it's full I'll let you know for sure but I'm pretty sure it was a bit more subtle. It's not as loud of a vibration just a normal quick one. It still notifies you in the status bar too once it's full. I'll mashes sure now once it's done and let you know

2. Ads like crazy now that I don't gave adaway anymore

3. Small things that closed can fix like changing status bar icons to match better and getting rid of the cluttered ones like silent icon and have the 4g icon only show when data's on instead of having a cross through t when it's off.

Vad är det som tar tid, vad är det som är knas?

lgnordic:

@brunns83 Har inget exakt datum på G2. Runt 4-6 veckor bort. Många inblandade i uppdateringen: LG Korea, vi, operatörerna och sen LG Korea igen. /Magnus LG

It is written in swedish so the translate goes:

brunns83: Is this a sign of your phones color is silly lgnordic and when is lollipop arriving to my G2?

What is it that takes so much time, what is it that is silly?

lgnordic: Don't have an exact date on the G2. About 4-6 weeks away. Many ppl is involved in the update: LG Korea, us, the operators and then LG Korea again. / Magnus LG

So we should expect lollipop to our g2 in earliest 27th march or latest 10th of april.:p

Lollipop

https://pvzwmdmcdn.vzw.motive.com/firmware/LG_VS980_28A_TO_39A.bin

It just hasn't been pushed out yet as an official ota. This bin file will be downloaded to all vs980's once its official.
[G2 General] jonstrong:
a) Hoping 39A is the final version they push, as whatever else they might push probably won't update the copy of 39A I just installed on my VS980 this week...

b) Still hoping that root will be possible sometime soon with the stock OTA as a nice conservative path to a rooted lollipop that can also use xposed.
[G2 General] MicroMod777:
Seems progress on root on LP in the G3 has stopped since they can just flash LP on older baseband after pulling it from a kdz. Wish it wasn't so.
[G2 General] jonstrong:
Agree...hoping that someone will come up with a clever exploit for the full blown stock OTA, baseband included.
[G2 General] jesssiii:
I used yours successfully when I had problems with the commands from xdabbeb's thread. Thanks again!

I'm really glad now that I didn't buy the G3. For me, no root=no phone. I love the G2, best phone I've owned thus far, but if they lock future phones down even more, I'll be heading over to HTC.

I don't think I'll be getting any phone with the snap dragon 810. Both htc m9 and lg g flex 2 were getting overheating complaints. Not sure if they're real Or maybe just people believing rumors but it's kinda worrying. I saw the facts saying that it heats less than the 801 but that could be in a very controlled environment. Im gonna wait and see but I think my next phone will be a Sony (i can get a new one in April) or I'll keep my g2 and wait itoutto see what else there is later in the year.

Well that was pretty off topic but just wanted to share my opinion.

Very true about the Snapdragon 810 part.

Rumors have it that lg might use their own custom made processors. But we all know how that went with the LG G3 Screen. It also had overheating problems.

And I doubt LG can improve that much within one generation.

My next device has to have a removable battery and preferably also a micro SD card. Waterproof would be nice, but since I've never owned a waterproof device I won't worry too much.
[G2 General] gator969:
Done

Well ive tried flashing this about 6 times and keep getting a boot loop when flashing from 28a to 39a. Ive followed the instructions every time and cant figure out why it keeps getting stuck. I change the file name to dlpkgfile and give it all permissions in root explorer. I create the recovery folder in the cache folder and give it all permissions. I run the echo then i run the update package. This works perfect going from 27a to 28a. But when i do it for the LP update it just sits at the LG logo forever when booting up. I have even tried doing a factory reset when its stuck like this and it doesn't help. Im not sure what else to do at this point. I may just have to stay at 27a and wait for Verizon to push this.
