Carbon Rom bugs

Can anyone tell me about the bugs present in Carbon Rom for D858hk ?
[G3 General] bravo2526:
please can any one provide me the tot file for v20e og d858hk or any way of making it ....
[G3 General] flueterflam:
No idea if there are specific bugs for D858HK versus any of the other phone models... There is one thing which is sort of a bug...but only related to AutoRec root method (which I think is the way Carbon rom handles it). That is, rooting for D856 which is also used for D858HK because of the similarities. If you check out Carbon rom thread, they discuss this issue somewhere. Anyway, what happens is occasional (but fairly rare, I beleive) random reboots and also randomly when rebooting the phone, it gets stuck off and cannot reboot without taking out the battery and reinserting it. However, I suggest you ask questions about Carbon rom bugs directly in the Carbon rom thread, rather than in this thread where many/most? are not using it currently.

---------- Post added at 10:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:23 AM ----------

Uh.... I on the other hand have not noticed this for sim 2... But I would love it were true. You got this h+ for sim 2 without any special configuration?? Also, it sounds to me you have a problem if you're getting "sims has changed click to configure" on every reboot. I've never received that message once. I would recommend wiping everything internal, re-flashing the rom, and wiping cache/dalvik and see if that problem goes away.
[G3 General] flueterflam:

Also, do you know if by any chance the new rooting method for g3 applies to d858hk also? I saw it and it looks hassle free, and it will be the first time im rooting the G3 so I would like to keep it simple :)

Happy hollidays!
[G3 General] waqasr:
I am not sure what new method are you talking about but I used one click method mentioned

in the following link which was hassle free and very simple as well. All the best!!!

http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/general/guide-root-lg-firmwares-kitkat-lollipop-t3056951

** I was on KitKat when I used the above method **
[G3 General] tampitzel:
Thanks a lot for your reply! It really helped a lot!

I followed the link you sent and I used the One Click method. It worked great, worked from the first try.

I then used Autorec to install TWRP and then I downloaded and installed Carbon Rom.

It's pretty close to stock (Nexus) and I am happy overall. I can't customise the screen layout (i wanted 4X4 not 5X5) but it's such a big deal. Also I enjoyed the DPI settings which can help get a better overview of the browser pages.

It's not yet a daily driver. I am not giving up my Nexus yet, but I am using this one for a few days to see how it stacks up against Nexus. If I manage to get the same enjoyable experience I got from my Nexus 5 I am going to make the G3 a daily driver.

Thank you again for your replies, they really helped! :)
[G3 General] waqasr:
You are most welcome, Glad to be of any help to you.

I see you have done too much in too less time, Nice :P

Enjoy the benefits of Rooting your phone, Did you download AutoRec from the play store and

then downloaded TWRP? If you can give the detailed steps I would really appreciate it.

I have been meaning to try CarbonRom, please use it for couple of days and share

your experience with us. For the screen layout maybe you can try a different launcher, or

maybe you can install Xposed and see if that gives you this capability. All the best!! :good:
[G3 General] tampitzel:
The steps went like this:

1. Download LG drivers

2. Enable Developer options, afterwards enabling USB debugging.

3. Started the One Click root -> It rooted my phone

4. Downloaded AutoRec from here : https://apkpure.com/d858hk-lg-g3-autorec-lollipop/b007.autorecd858hk (didn't use the google play store one because I wasn't signed in - I didn't sign in because I didn't want my account to mix-up with LG services).

5. After this, started AutoRec and clicked back-up -> then install recovery.

6. After this I rebooted in recovery (you can do this with ADB -> adb reboot recovery or with the key combination, which was new to me so i preferred ADB command line).

7. Once in TWRP did a full Nandroid backup just in case, saved it on my computer.

8. Wiped everything (including internal memory), then copied rom + gapps (downloaded full ones from here http://opengapps.org/?api=5.1&variant=nano - I chose stock because you get all the gapps that come with a Nexus device).

9. Flashed both, restarted

10. For a few moments I thought I am stuck on bootscreen (lg screen) but don't panic, it does that first time.

11. You will see a screen with updating apps and then starting apps then finishing boot which will take a while.

12. Then you're good to go, pretty much everything works fine as much as I tested. Noticed someone mentioned in the Carbon Rom forum about GPS issues but it was not my case. - I think he did a dirty flash

I will keep you posted in the next days how well it performs, but right now I am pretty satisfied. Battery life seems pretty okay but it's too soon to tell :)

Let me know if you want to know anything else!
[G3 General] waqasr:
Thanks a lot bro for writing up such a detailed guide.

I am still on stock rooted Kitkat 4.4.2 will this AutoRec version for work me? since in requirements

it says Version: Lollipop (133) for Android 5.0+ (Lollipop, API 21)!!

LG D858 wrong firmware?

Recently I ordered Lg d858 3gb ram 32 gb rom and I received a Lg d858hk 2gb am 16gb rom. The seller regards that sent me the right

device (32gb) The sticker under the battery with the s/n of the device writes 32gb edition. Is it possible to install the 32 gb firmware to 16 gb edition and the device to recognize 2gb ram and 16gb rom? Should I try to install the 32gb firmware or is this going to brick my device? When I give my IMEI for update it gives me D85820C_00 firmware but I'm afraid to install it.
[G3 General] waqasr:
Maybe you want to ask this question on main or QA section of G3 so more people can view and

hopefully reply Since your issue seems like a general issue which applies to all Variants.

This thread/section is pretty much dead. Since I am not sure if trying 32GB firmware

will brick your phone or not but what I would suggest is you root your phone, install a custom recovery

e.g. TWRP and try either CarbonRom or CM12.1 which is supposed to work for both 16GB/32GB variants.

that will give you an idea if your phone is 32GB or 16GB . In my opinion this is a little safer then

simply trying the 32GB firmware. I could be wrong but this is what I can come up with that you can try,

I hope some one with better expertise is able to help or answer your question.
[G3 General] tampitzel:
Hi, sorry for the late post, it's been Xmas :P

Anyway, I was on lollipop when rooting. If you don't wanna risk it, you could update, then root, although I`m sure nothing wrong can come out of simply installing TWRP :)
[G3 General] waqasr:
No problem bro, and Merry Christmas :)

I had actually downloaded the recovery.img for TWRP from the link below and flashed it using Flashify which I downloaded from Play store!!

http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/general/lg-g3-d856-kitkat-lollipop-root-twrp-t3206421

Everything worked good, Now in a day or two I will flash CarbonRom :)

Hows your experience with CarbonRom going? Both sims work fine? also DT2W works?
[G3 General] tampitzel:
CarbonRom works fine, a bit of lag due to some weird animations but this is only compared to my Nexus 5, its something you can live with.

Both sims work fine, one is 4g the other is H or something.

Battery life in average is about 1 day, more or less, depending what you do that day.

Double tap to wake works great when waking up the phone. If you want to put it to sleep you have to double tap the status bar. Not a big deal.

Other than that, it's pretty okay :)
[G3 General] re_di:
Would you mind checking 2nd SIM indicator during Internet connection? I mean - are you sure that this is H? It would be great, but sounds to pretty to believe in it :)

[G3 General] datas0ft:
Marshmallow v6.0 for LG-D856/857/858/858HK

Decided make new post because need make so much changes!

Known bugs:

1. Not working 64GB SD cards, smaller cards work perfect

2. Some users report that Bluetooth not Switch ON over Quick Menu. OFF works. Ovr Sytem menu Bluetooth works (I dont had on my D858HK)

3. Some users report that camera have so much noise and not all menu options not show up (I dont had on my D858HK)

4. No connection with android wear clocks (different models reported)

5. USB OTG works, but you cant install at connected device programs, you must copy these to internal disk or sd.

First for all!

1. Make nandroid backup over TWRP

2. Make backup of any personal information (conact list, SMS, Photos, Music and etc)

If you kill your phone when you make bottom steps then all responsibility goes only for you! My guide is only for knowledge base.

Version: v.6.0

For models:LG-D856/857/858/858HK

Link to original forum thread

You must have:

1. Lollipop 5.0.1 installed

2. Root

3. TWRP recovery v2.8.5.1

Installation over recovery by zip file

Wipe data, cache and dalvik!!! Then start install!

1. Install M-856-8.zip on recovery (dont reboot yet!!!)

2. Install Patch-6.0Mm.zip over recovery <- IT NEEDED FOR WORK WIT DUAL SIM!!!

3. After install over recovery both zip files make reboot

4. Before reboot TWRP asks about installation SuperSU, install it with swipe!

5. After you get working phone on left top corner you see icon that SuperSU need to be updated. Accept it and make choice over PlayStore (Not over recovery!). PlayStore opens and make update

6. After update SuperSU over PlayStore again SuperSu icon show that it need to be updated over normal or recovery method. This time make choice to recovery and phone itself goes to recovery and make update

7. If phone going to TWRP and it get start loop, then just pull out battery and start normally phone again. And make previous step (6.) again. With same problem second time just pull out battery, start phone to recovery and install SuperSU v2.46 zip

In this ROM dpi changed (not by me) to 560. Normal is 640. You can change it inside build.prop at 530 to 640, depends at your needs.

All this take about 10 min.

Download

Download ROM M-856-8.zip

Download Patch Patch-6.0Mm.zip

Additional stuff

If you dont have TWRP v2.8.5.1 installed then you can do next:

1. Download D858_TWRP_2.8.1.0.apk and install it normally

2. Go to recovery and install update twrp-2.8.5.1_d858-bumped.zip

For unknow reason I uploaded SuperSU v2.46 zip (for insallation over recovery) here too

Service menu can be opened with *#546368#*XXX# (replace XXX with your phone model number)

Please dont make mirrors!

Ask persmission over PM to copy this information! If you like then dont forget :good: Thanks button

I have tested this same ROM for almost two months(from the first version to the last) and yes it was all perfect with the bluetooth bandwidth but the quality was still bad, and after examining 1GB of log data found out that it was actually the receiver that was governing on 96kbps and with the retarded SBC codec(the only one that the receiver supports :(... don't really remember if android was trying to gouverneur on MPEG also) it was doing pretty well on crapping up the whole stream. In the end I decided to stop using bluetooth altogether(for media audio) and returned back to the original LGs ROM as I got random reboots (due to some kernel panic), bluetooth service was constantly failing after playing for 20-30 minutes media and draining around 0.5 amps more on "sleep". Still... this custom rom had better GPS settings and thus location fixing was perfect even on heavily urbaned environment. Now waiting for android 6 and hopefully it will fix the bluetooth (I think it was fixed in 5.1 that was not released for G3) and will improve the location service as the LG's is pretty crappy on urban environment.
