Correct me if I'm wrong, and I'm all for open sourced things, but I feel this whole Bump thing will blow up in our faces.

Yes, another group took theCubes work (and his team), stating they were being "Shady" about it, and opened it for all. Usually, this is good news, but you have to ask yourself a couple of things. One, why wasn't it open sourced to begin with? Is it because CodeFire/theCubed was making money? No. They were clearly keeping the process in the dark, but if it wasn't for financial gain, then why? The ONLY logical answer has to be because they knew more about the situation w/ LG than any one else.

I've got to believe, that when someone takes a couple of months to accomplish something no one else could, then holds on to it for whatever reason, I've got to believe it's for the good of the community. With signatures and keys, and with the CM11 & CM12 being closed, I firmly believe we are all screwed now without Codefire and theCubed. This process has taken forever to get, and in a matter of days, another team ruined it, and the future, so what? They could have OFFICIAL CM ROMs? Ridiculous.

I guess my point is, I've been a member for 8+ years on this forum, and I have NEVER seen this much drama, name calling, *****ing, moaning, accusations and ETAs. I don't know if it's new members, old members getting old and cranky, or just society loosing all respect and patience; but this crap needs to stop! I've been on other phone threads, and the LG G3 issues are BY FAR the worst. If you don't have anything nice to say, if you don't have any thing to add, shut it. Show a little respect to devs, take your fragile ego out of it, and lets move forward together. Who cares if something is SHADY, so long as it gets the job done?!? That's why everyone was initially *****ing anyways, because nothing was happening. Now that things are picking up, people NEED to know how it works? Pathetic.

Stepping off the soap box. Clean up this post if needed, but the community needs to clean itself up. Take the initiative, stop stupidity.

[Sprint LG G3] bonebeatz1234:
We all need to band together and get things working for our phone. I'm down to help as much as possible . I'm grateful for what these guys done so far but there could always be more that the end user could do to help. I been trying everything to get bluetooth working but i won't stop trying. So hopefully there's more people out there working on fixes for the cm rom because it felt nice and smooth on the lg g3. It's a shame bt don't work because i use it alot.
[Sprint LG G3] vestaviajag:
I think we screwed the ROM development over... don't see it happening without proper Bump!. Would love to be wrong... but if that's not the case, and development will continue, why was CM threads closed? Why has nothing been addressed or advanced? I think the development for this phone has been severely handicapped.
[Sprint LG G3] whojabacod:
Lol ... Um just FYI even though the threads closed there's a new build up .. Nothing stopped
[Sprint LG G3] vestaviajag:
Haha, hilarious... :rolleyes:. Did you really laugh out loud? Saw that new build, already ran it. Nothing stopped, perhaps. But what was going on to begin with? Two CM ROMs? :p

When I meant development is over (and I guess I should of said this), without properly signing the Bump images, esp future kernels, the ROM development will be crippled. It's about the lack of kernels, which I believe will limit ROMs, not the lack of current ROMs being updated. Will be very surprised if Deathly or other kernels (heavily used by PA/DU/etc) will ever come to the LS990 because of this drama.

Updating an unofficial CM with an incremental update doesn't exactly qualify as big news in development. We'll see how far things can progress, my thought is not much further.

Again, could be wrong... hope I am. The fact remains, the *****yness needs to stop. Even if we can move on beyond Codefire and theCubed, the problem/reason why they/he left still persists.

---------- Post added at 10:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:18 PM ----------

Let's not forget, the CM12 & CM11 threads were closed, without explanation. I've never seen a mod or owner do that, with out at least some form of explanation. That leads me to think something was seriously wrong. It's been speculated that it's because of Bump! I don't know, wouldn't surprise me. But the mods just don't start closing stuff w/out notice.
[Sprint LG G3] JESUSARIUS REX:
I agree that some things about XDA aren't what they used to be. People used to be friendly and supportive, and if you ended being an asshat, you apologized. I can't believe this. The LS970 and the HTC Speedy (Evo Shift) were so close and friendly. When a dev does something as great as Bumpd, and doesn't want it released, you listen. I never suspected anything fishy when it wasn't open sourced. Sigh. I think we have one thing we need to try. Back on the Speedy, HTC wouldn't release the sense kernel for gingerbread. We complained on every means of social media for months. Eventually we got it. Maybe if we complain to LG a ton about unlocking there's a small chance it'll work? I mean, do we really have anything to lose?

[Sprint LG G3] biglama:
That article is 3 months old. LG has already confirmed that they have no current plans for an unlock. Bums me out. I picked this phone over several others cause I really thought it looked good for development due to the hardware specs and I just couldn't bring myself to get another Samsung.

The general 'lounge' thread mentioned a few flavors of CM based ROMS being worked on currently so that gives me hope, after flashing an only 'mostly working' CM 12 I just can't go back to 4.4. I still have reservations about the official LG L update and what it will block/prevent as this device moves forward.

Has anyone seen if the 11 25 build fixed bluetooth? It is 10mb bigger. Maybe there is some goodness.
[Sprint LG G3] vestaviajag:
I remember that drama. Couldn't even mention his name or that kernel in posts, the devs were all over it. I'm talking more about the entire drama with this phone. The constant whining about releasing the unlock for the bootloader; the claim that the team, Jcase, theCubed, etc. was only waiting until the bounty got to a certain level; arguments about LG releasing an unlock; constant negativity about the future of this phone, along with the daily "I'm selling my G3, it's dead" comments.

The drama I'm talking about, is in it's entirety with this phone, not just the current kerfuffle with Bump! The mods were all over the CG/Anthrax crap, but closing down threads without notice? The lack of civility and common courtesy for this phone is embarrassing. I've never seen anything of this magnitude, over the course of an entire phone-community.

Tried it out, although I dirty flashed it over the 11-21 build, but I didn't see any real changes. No Bluetooth, no additional customization's. Felt more solid for the hour I tried it, but ymmv.
[Sprint LG G3] RG3:
How's the camera? & Does video recording work? :eek:

Very thankful to have Lollipop for my phone :)

CM11 works perfectly :D
[Sprint LG G3] vestaviajag:
Did test out video recording, but camera was fine. Not on par with the stock based ROMs obviously, but worked well for me.

Maybe you could flash and update us, I had to go back to BarRin so didn't run it out as much as I normally did.
[Sprint LG G3] RG3:
Will do brother, thank you! :good:
[Sprint LG G3] aheeejd:
Seriously dude, you say that cm11 runs perfectly? You don't experience anything like browser pages & apps constantly reloading? YouTube videos reload, which stops the video, halfway through an article, reload back to beginning of article, titanium backup, restore a few apps, back to the top of the list. It must be just me, I would love to run cm11. From the 15th build to the 21st, same thing. I've tried several different dl's, check md5, full wipes, dirty flashes, so I'm very curious if they've run smoothly for you. I wonder what the heck it could be. I'm running 11/25 cm12 at the moment, & I'm not getting that reload issue.

Edit - Not sure yet but after typing this, it got me thinking again. I've just been dealing with the issue. So I was like what is the constant thing here, the gapps. I've flashed the cm11 11/21 build & changed the version of pagapps I was using & I've got the phone almost all set up & haven't had the issues once yet, normally at this point I would always had several reloads, yahooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

The video still crashes. I just tested it.
[Sprint LG G3] asacado:
Bug list

The camera takes pictures fine, but unfortunately video recording is non-existent. I tried 3 separate camera apps and while it looked like it was recording, it crashes every time upon ending the recording. Also, I has a sad that bluetooth is still not working. If those two problems can be fixed, I am set to switch CM12 as my daily driver.
[Sprint LG G3] MBCO:
May be crazy but I cannot find the option to display battery percentage in battery stats. Not a big deal.

Location blip icon in status bar sticks when location is battery saving, again not a big deal and don't mind it.

Just a heads up for anyone else running 11/25
[Sprint LG G3] fergie716:
11/25 build has been running very well for me, however I don't use Bluetooth. But no kernel crashes, minimal lag, just fantastic
[Sprint LG G3] RG3:
I experience none of those problems, on cm11 build 11/16 with the latest PA Gapps.

No lag nothing, it perfect, I'm even using the Android L Cm11 theme :P

Only problem is Bluetooth, I can deal with not having bluetooth.

The camera is solid with newest Google Camera update.

I had kernel crashes with cm11 build 11/20 & 11/21, so I went back to build 11/16, hasn't let me down yet :]]
[Sprint LG G3] JESUSARIUS REX:
That's how I feel. While my next phone will most likely not be an LG (things could change), I'm sticking with the G3. I'm in a two year, but even if I wasn't I like this phone and I don't want to abandon it. The G3 may have been "crippled" but it's certainly going to recover and live a good life if you ask me. Loving CM12 right now. Once it has Blu tooth I'll be happy for a loooonnnngg time :).
[Sprint LG G3] vestaviajag:
I agree with you. I'm not going to sell my G3 (also in a two year). And I hope I'm wrong, and we get CM12 rocking, hopefully some Dirty Unicorn and other ROMs. I just don't know. It will all become clear a couple of weeks after our LG's get the 5.0 OTA. Then people will know how much further we can take the development of this phone. Until then, even my opinion, is pure speculation.

Otherwise, fantastic phone!
[Sprint LG G3] fergie716:
New cm12 build is up
[Sprint LG G3] vestaviajag:
You beat me to it. If I don't get to flash it and test it out right away (college football), please let us know what's changed.

I switched from the 11/21 build as anytime I ran a video (youtube, facebook, etc), it would reboot and erase all radio connections. Had to re-flash to get radio back; not good when you're in a new city for an interview and waiting to hear back, ha.

Hope this development keeps going and does great things. Hopefully the Verizon variant can lend a hand since it's now supported by CM for CM11.
[Sprint LG G3] fergie716:
I had a similar issue with any media, but it was only if I was using it for an extended amount of time (ex: listening to 45 minutes of music on Poweramp while working out).

I sent some logs to the developer and he confirmed he received them so maybe they're being worked on!

I did a clean install, first thing I noticed was the DPI was changed again (stock is 640, change lcd_density in the build.prop), I did have issues with the stock SU app, switched to SuperSU and haven't had any since. Seems like the statusbar pull down stuff is acting as it should (had an issue with that in the previous build). Brightness control and quick pulldown have been added to the Settings menu.

I'll keep playing around with it

Are you confirming that BT is fixed in 11/25? Assuming, since you're asking about GPS, you haven't tested BT for yourself, meaning you're getting your info from somewhere else.

Samsung S5 - Verizon

SM-G9000V

Running 4.4.2 (ANCG)

Rooted with TWRP / SAFESTRAP / SUPERSU / XPOSED FRAMEWORK

so here's the question.

I've run across numerous different ways to upgrade to 4.4.4

1) now that some time has gone by since this release was originally put forth, what has been decided is the best way to upgrade and retain root? Or at least regain root with minimal to no loss to rooted applications and their data?

2) If phone requires wiping, what is the best way to bring it back to as close to exactly how it was in look and feel, settings, tweaks etc?

Background : I won't ever post a question without having done a lot of research I don't want to waste anyones time and if they've already written it I certainly will take the time to read it. I currently have

Titanium Backup Pro

SuperSu

TWRP

SAFESTRAP

My Backup Pro

Each variation of restoring payphone seems to offer different aspects. Titanium backup seems to do a good job of restoring apps, TWRP seems to do a pretty good job of bringing back other portions.

I wanted to see if we can get 1 clear post, that says if youre on 4.4.2 ANCG, and you want to upgrade to 4.4.4, latest build, :

1) Here's how to do it, even if its a quick link to the correct instructions or the most relevant and accurate ones.

2) IF the phone has to be wiped, reset, or any loss of anything in order to do that, here's how to bring it back the simplest cleanest way.

would love to see this wrapped up in one clean and simple easy discussion. I realize this information is in scattered bits and pieces all through the forums. I've read everything I could find. It's hard to tell which post came out before someone found a better way and after someone found the best way and then what way ended up being the endorsed way excetera excetera. Very hard to tell from all of the variations.

Therefore seems like a fresh thread with really clear instructions as of todays date - THIS is the best way, would really be helpful to a lot of people and I would be very appreciative for your help

I really really enjoy reading all the great things you guys post, been an avid reader for about a year now, and just continue to be amazed at the incredible depth of helpful expertise and knowledge that I find on here.

[Verizon LG G3] bpyazel:
We aren't going to be stuck on 4.4 either way. If they patch it, someone will eventually release a version that doesn't contain the patch and can be flashed via twrp. Just don't take any OTA updates, otherwise you may lose root forever.
