[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] OfficerJimLahey:
Okay, just to make things weird, I had an opportunity to do the trick. It did not work, and I had to use the LG tool again. :(

It seems to bypass those keys pressed. Luckily download mode still works, or else I'd be screwed royally.

So going off-topic, why did I kill my phone again? Well, it all has to do with the LG Keyboard (onscreen) failing. With the ROM I have posted, it's "Unfortunately, LG Keyboard has stopped" over and over again. Yesterday, I made a version of the ROM with the AOSP Keyboard APK replacing the Lucky Goldstar version. Same problem, except this time it's "Unfortunately, AOSP Keyboard has stopped" over and over again. Okay, so I finished the setup wizard, turned on developer mode, fired up ADB, deleted the AOSP Keyboard from the /system/app folder and installed it as a userapp. No problem. So I thought, hmmm, would this APK work if I fire it in the /system/apps/bootup folder and let it install as a userapp when the ROM first boots?

I was going to test that theory, but when I rebooted into recovery (with the debloated ROM without any keyboard apps), wiped userdata and cache, I mispelled recovery when I issued the adb shell command "reboot recovery". That made it reboot into system, and things went downhill once I could not get past the LG Setup Wizard that was continually crashing.

So, LG tool'ed back to stock, rooted, recoveried and I thought, before I restore my precious backup I should try the ROM I created, answer that question once and for all. I wiped userdata and cache, rebooted back into recovery (spelling correct this time), flashed it, rebooted, and....

AOSP Keyboard crashed once (or more), in between all the LG Setup Wizard force closes. So I backed out and restored everything (again). I now have two pieces of homework:

Find a way to have developer mode on by default, so I can make (potentially) changes to the ROM if I am in this situation again.

Investigate if LG Setup Wizard is even needed, as it is really annoying me right now. If it's not, consider it gone!

Solve these two, and I should have something a lot closer to beta.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] steadfasterX:
hm... yea download mode should work always as this is totally independent from that. But the main difference in the latest sediKERNEL is that it completely ignores the bootloader arguments.

I thought always that the "Factory Hard Reset" screen was/is hardcoded within the bootloader but your tests showing that this can not be (fully) true. You should at least SEE the screen where you need to confirm the factory reset then. Well that could mean it either checks for the existence of kernel or this screen IS from the kernel itself! At least the last one could be tracked I will investigate that theory because if that is the case then there would be a hook where we could load TWRP instead e.g...

...

Update: Ok search is over. There is no trace found withing the kernel sources or the end result which contains the factory hard reset strings.

That said I think the LG factory reset needs a working kernel available...

That is my theory but could be "easy" verified/declined by following those steps. Maybe if you get into that situation again you could try?

deleting partition "boot" (dd /dev/zero..). If factory reset is still showing fine (it could be enough to still have a kernel in recovery). If not well then we need a working kernel/boot image to reach factory reset and you can ABORT HERE..

Then flash sediKERNEL to the boot partition and verify that it is booting.

from there delete the recovery partition (dd /dev/zero..).

Try to get into the factory reset again. If the screen "Factory Hard Reset" is displayed fine (it could be enough to either have a kernel in recovery

or

in boot). If not then we need a working kernel/recovery image to reach factory reset and you can ABORT HERE..

boot into system again

Now the

wicked

part: delete recovery partition and boot partition (dd ..) --> THIS MEANS: SOFT-BRICKING! but it is the only way to say it for absolutely sure (if the above both tries still showing the factory reset)..

turn out the battery. try to open the factory reset.

If the screen "Factory Hard Reset" is displayed that would be a clear

decline

of my theory!

If you do not see the screen "Factory Hard Reset" then it means we need a working kernel / boot / recovery partition in order to reach the factory reset screen!

well and now you need to use the download mode again to unbrick the device of course..

In order to turn on the usb debugger mode: within your ROM zip file modify this file "/system/build.prop"

persist.service.adb.enable=1

Optionally:

if you want to do root commands over adb I/you could modify in the "default.prop" file which is within the kernel's initrd:

ADD: ro.secure=0
REMOVE (if exist): ro.debuggable=0

Regarding your keyboard FCs:

I remember that I had the same issues within my Captivate ROM I build. There I tried to add the Kii Keyboard to the stock ROM image and that resulting in the same FC's you describing. My solution was to use another keyboard (in my case it was a samsung one) so I would suggest that you could try around with another keyboard instead of the AOSP one...

Good luck
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] OfficerJimLahey:
Hopefully I don't end up in that situation again. However if I do, I still wouldn't be able to complete the test anyway because I would have no way of issuing (root) console commands. If I did, I could just execute my backup (I dd my partitions for this reason) restore plan (and get out of the mess easily).

Then I re-familiarized myself with this:

What if the strings are in aboot, but the kernel flags merely throw the kernel into aboot if triggered by the hot-keys?

I will try the build.prop suggestion. It won't give me superuser (maybe you could do the default.prop modification?), but I could still install apks, which would have gotten me out of at least one mess. Although su would be nice. Could you integrate the modified default.prop into your kernel? :fingers-crossed:

As for the keyboards, I wonder if it's a permission thing. I will have to look at that when I get home. To be honest, I didn't look at what the permissions are set to (should be rw-r--r--), and I could/should rename the file to LatinIME.apk. There may also be a old library that is getting in the way. I also have a line on a different keyboard. Looks nice, just in the process of asking permission to use it first (based off of Google Keyboard).

No problem, I'm still looking for a decent camera app as well. I wish I could use the stock LG one from my G3 on here but I don't think it will work.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nexus6R3plicant:
Did you try L camera too ?

His git is here go into it and download the app

the L camera works completely fine on my nexus 6. and i havent updated yet. no issues with it.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pilz:
Im glad to know that it works. I'm going to give it a try.

It looms like [MENTION=1811927]simms22[/MENTION] beat me to it. I was busy flashing a ROM earlier.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] str3tchb0y:
I take this to mean that you are able to take slo-mo video? What different frame rates do you have?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
slo-mo isnt an option, at least i dont see it. and i updated it today.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pilz:
There's no option for it as of right now. Also the photos look a little worse than the stock camera app when I compared them. The app has potential if you can edit the photos saved as a RAW format.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] str3tchb0y:
I see by the pics that there are a number of options that end in x60. Is that frame rate? What do the videos look like when you use those? The assumption is that the playback is still going to do 30 fps and if shot at 60fps then the playback would be slo-mo.

Also what are the grayed out options and the blue options, if you know?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pilz:
In assuming that is the frame rate.

Blue is my selected option, grayed out are ones that I can't click (don't work on my phone)

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] DmitTrix:
I have just installed Carbon on my Galaxy W. Meanwhile, I have encountered two issues:

1) Looks like there is a bug related to the built-in Android Keyboard (AOSP) app – if "Blue" color scheme is selected in the advanced settings, the app closes, and can't be reopened; if you try, it fails with "Unfortunately, Android Keyboard (AOSP) has stopped". Also, the "Back" button stops working – if you touch it, it does turn on the buttons backlight, and the phone vibrates, but no "back" action is executed.

Erasing app data helps to recover from this condition (Settings → Apps → scroll right to "ALL" → Android Keyboard (AOSP) → Clear data). Of course, this deletes all settings of this app.

2) The built-in "Camera" app doesn't work at all; it also fails with "Unfortunately, Camera has stopped" error message. Other camera applications do work (I tried Google Camera).
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] khusika:

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Germany89:
Ok, thanks man for your work!

Anyway, I want to add some things for you...After using this ROM, I've found basically 2 bugs and an annoying limitation.

The 2 bugs are:

- Sometimes I can't display the frame of the desktop which I put on the right as regards the central default frame (with all the icons and widgets on it) - it's the frame No. 2. Now it's not happening anymore, but some weeks ago the problem recurred. I had to reboot many times to have that frame displayed again.

- I found a bug using WhatsApp, when I send voice notes. Sometimes they are recorded and played at a low volume. If I reboot my device, the volume turns up, and again, if I reboot another time, the volume turns down. It's a bit annoying.

The very annoying limitation is the lack of possibility to set the power button as a physical button to end a phone call. I really need to use this option because when I have a phone call, my proximity sensor is a bit lazy, and often the screen remains asleep when my face is far from it.

I'd be really glad if you fix all these bugs and add this useful option (which is already available in many other ROMs). ;)
