Paranoid OTA is only for the official builds which aren't build by Mike. His build are under the unofficial link in main post. And yes, dt2w is still not supported and misfunctioning.

I don't think you have actually to wipe something, cache and dalvik-cache should be wiped in instalation process and system should be overwritten.
[G2 Original Android Development] cmlohff:
Dt2w works perfectly fine for me on the 7/16 build and my screen hasn't woken up randomly anymore either. Also, it is good practice to wipe system, cache, and dalvik when flashing an update. Especially since these builds move fast and if you have an issue the first question people ask is if you dirty flashed.
[G2 Original Android Development] aaronDroid80:
It's probably best to full wipe with these latest releases.

Was running 16/7 with no problems. Now i'm running 19/7 and noticed i lost the "reboot to recovery" option. Instead "reboot" is rebooting into recovery... :) Just wanted to let you know. Will continue to test. Looking good.

I'm on D802.
[G2 Original Android Development] MikeCriggs:
Thanks for the heads up! It might have built from the wrong branch or device tree. I'll look into it. For now, just revert back to the previous build.
[G2 Original Android Development] epapsiou:
17/7 had the same issue on d800. Not a big deal. Just FYI to help pinpoint the origin.
[G2 Original Android Development] aaronDroid80:
The only thing I've noticed so far with the 7/19 build is that the custom battery settings are missing. Looks like screen casting is now working, at least this is the first time is recognized my Chromecast. The systemwide icon setting in themes is really sweet too, though that may have been working for a while, this is the first I've noticed it. Nice work.

Thanks. I do not see any reboots though. I made and followed these instructions for any D800 users:

Paranoid Android v5.1 Install Instructions

NOTE: If you have the latest version of TWRP (2.8.7.1), at the time of this writing, and the KitKat Baseband/Modem, then proceed to the next steps:

1. Wipe System + Data + Cache + Dalvik Cache (Do NOT wipe Internal Storage)

2. Flash the LP bootstack, bootstack-d800-LP_30d-loki-signed.zip (Found here: http://downloads.blissroms.com/Add-ons/lg-devs_bootloaders)

3. Flash Paranoid Android v5.1

4. Flash GAPPS, BaNkS-dynamic-gapps-5.x.x-7-17-15.zip (Found here: http://fitsnugly.euroskank.com/?rom=banks&device=gapps)

5. Reboot (First reboot may take up to 10 minutes)

For me everything works great with the exception of Android Device Manager. I will wait for the solution. Thanks again.
[G2 Original Android Development] Artim_96:
I don't think that's really our problem. Sure, ADM isn't working for us too, but she writes

But location isn't working for us at all. At least I can't see any location history (ok, I think I have deleted it a month ago or more, but there would be at least one month of history).

[G2 Original Android Development] vikdal:
I'm currently running the build from june 12th, with JB bootloader and kitkat baseband. Do I need to update the bootloader to install the latest build, or am I all set to flash?

If I install the Kitkat bootloader, I'll have to go for the bumped versions of roms (etc) since it patches the loki exploits?
[G2 Original Android Development] Artim_96:
The latest builds are bumped, which means they are made for KK and JB bootloader, so they will keep working. However it is recommended to use KK bootloader, KK baseband and LP bootstack.

And yes, when you install the KK bootloader, recovery, ROM and bootstack have to be bumped (and also kernel if there would be a working kernel out there for the G2 which also works in AOSP-ROMs).
[G2 Original Android Development] vikdal:
Thanks for the quick reply :)

I'm already on a bumped version of twrp so that should be all good. I've downloaded the loki-version of the bootstrap, so I have to change that.

I can't find a link to kitkat bootloader in the op. Do you know where to find it for my d802?
[G2 Original Android Development] Artim_96:

Looking to get Xposed working on Lollipop I flashed this with The latest TWRP (2.8.7.1) on a D802: http://xdaforums.com/lg-g2/development-d802/rom-srkg2-1-00-20150516-t3109906 Direct from Houston's PA 4.4.4 build. It worked, but battery life was abysmal. 3.5hrs on a full charge. So I flashed 07/19 of this along with BaNKS Gapps, and it's stable, no reboots, I've not looked at location, save to turn it all off, almost everywhere, (left a few things unmolested in app ops) seems stable enough so far. Figure I'll settle in a bit, backup then try Xposed, if I can't get it working I'll probably drop back to 4.4.4 for a while.

Nice Build, cheers!
[G2 Original Android Development] TheUnladenSwallow:
You won't get any support, XPOSED isn't for use with custom ROMs.
[G2 Original Android Development] vodouchild:
So with this ROM, with future updates or reverting back to an older build, can we just dirty flash over the current release? I am trying to avoid setting up folders and things like that again. Thank you. :)
[G2 Original Android Development] cmlohff:
Dirty flashes are not recommended or supported if you have an issue.

But with regards to app folders on home screen and such then you don't have to worry; for me my home screen setting have been preserved with clean flashing for the past few builds.
[G2 Original Android Development] vodouchild:
Okay. Thanks for the reply. So, let's say a new unoffical build is released tomorrow and you need to install it, how are you installing it to keep your homescreen folders in place? I was under the impression that a clean flash meant you are wiping everything with the exception of Internal Storage and flashing the new ROM, hence your homescreen is lost. Thanks for your help.
[G2 Original Android Development] praxis22:
I'm a big boy, I've been playing with computers for 30 odd years at this point. In the event that it borks I know what to do.

That said however it didn't bork. Having flashed this: http://nextgen4k.blogspot.de/2015/05/rootalpha-unofficial-xposed-for-android.html wiped Dalvik, and then installed 3.0_alpha4 it works with everything I threw at it. Which is nice :)

Work for my D805?
[G2 Original Android Development] MikeCriggs:
These have all been blind builds since December. I no longer own any variant of the LG G2. So unless someone randomly donates a G2 to me, I cannot support any more variants. I apologize for the inconvenience.
[G2 Original Android Development] cmlohff:
Okay, to be fair I don't wipe the data partition unless there is a problem. But even if there is I use Titanium Backup to make a backup of the Google App and restore it once I finish a clean install. Usually though I only wipe the two cache partitions and system. Front there I flash the ROM, TK gapps, etc.
[G2 Original Android Development] MikeCriggs:
You guys can flash however you want with whatever you want. Just please don't report any bugs unless you do a FULL wipe (system, data, cache, and Dalvik cache) and reflash without ANYTHING custom (including kernels, mods, and especially Xposed) with Bank's or TK GAPPS and still encounter problems.
[G2 Original Android Development] cmlohff:
I know Mike, but thanks for clarifying for everyone. If I ever run into an issue the first thing I do is a complete wipe.

Loving these build lately! Active display is amazing :good:

AOSPA not rooted

Hello,

After flashing in AOSPA after doing a system wipe, TWRP prompted me saying my device wasnt rooted. It offered to install supersu, and I accepted and got into a bootloop. I reflashed everything, except this time not allowing TWRP to root. It worked fine, except that doing a root check after failing to install xposed shows that I am not rooted. Is there something i forgot to flash that i can flash? (possibly baseband) I tried rooting the same way I did in the first place, but it didn't work.

I'm on a verizon lg g2-VS980, legacy.

Sorry for being a noob. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Suneel

[G2 Original Android Development] Len:
That's wrong way to solve this problem : p

and if I remember correctly it's not MMS app problem but Stagefright library (which is responsible for media processing), so it should be patched.
[G2 Original Android Development] vikdal:
That's correct. The error is deep down on the Android code. Shared by all services that uses media handlers ie mms applications.
[G2 Original Android Development] Lawlrus:
Turn off auto download MMS, don't accept messages from people you know?

The site you linked said it needs to be taken care of via an ota.
[G2 Original Android Development] Len:
Well I know how take care of it atm.

It just that I posted this do developer cuz someone should take care of it, patches are already available for it, so it's just:

- patch files

- push changes

- compile new version

- spread love

:)
[G2 Original Android Development] MikeCriggs:
Libstagefright is nothing to be concerned about right now. Just like the huge bash bug that was overlooked for decades until last year. Don't fret, you guys will be fine. Just always keep a NANDROID handy :).
[G2 Original Android Development] vikdal:
I wouldn't say that. Anything that can be used for remote execution of code should be taken seriously and addressed asap. That being said, this is a bug in a shared library deep down in AOSP, so it's not up the the developers og custom roms to fix this. But when it is patched, an update to the ROM should be expected.

Keep it up Mike! Your work is much appreciated :)

[MENTION=2648349]Flynny75[/MENTION]

Is that the radio that comes with your 30d bootstack?
[G2 Original Android Development] MikeCriggs:
I'm sorry, but this is a problem a bit beyond the purpose of this thread. But I will leave you with some basic information (I used to work as a Verizon Wireless IT)

Verizon is a CDMA based network and T-Mobile is a GSM based network. It is possible to carrier unlock your particular device, but you have to understand that Verizon and T-Mobile's LTE networks are on different frequencies. The physical radio that picks up the signal may not be able to properly receive T-Mobile's signal. I would advise against flashing any firmware modems that are not meant for your specific variant. Doing so may make a serious mess. I would suggest selling your VS980 on Swappa (www.swappa.com) and purchasing the D801 (T-Mobile) variant.

I hope this helps.
[G2 Original Android Development] Flynny75:

When it comes to the bootstack, what's the difference between Bump and Loki? I see one of each for VS980 LP.

*edit* never mind, got it.
[G2 Original Android Development] Artim_96:
Loki is only for JB bootloader, bump is for JB and KK bootloader...so just use bumped for all, then everything should work.
[G2 Original Android Development] DirgeExtinction:
So I made sure I had the most recent lp modem and bootstack before flashing this. I don't have auto-rotate anymore. :(

*edit* To clarify: I have the VS980 with the 39A modem and LP bootstack. I'm not sure what bootloader I have, though I'm sure it is the KK one. I did a clean install of this rom with the micro gapps. Everything else is working great except for the auto-rotation. Seems like the proximity sensor isn't working either.
[G2 Original Android Development] MikeCriggs:
Try using KK.

Maybe a bit off-topic, but does anyone uses device encryption? I maybe will use it under Android Marshmallow (now official, version 6.0) when it will have the faster one that is implemented in Kernel Version 4.2. Does it still has big disadvantages? And which are them now? Custom Recoverys used to be not working properly with it enabled and others.
[G2 Original Android Development] vikdal:
Device encryption would be nice, but it should be hw supported, not sw, for performance reasons. Like the other "fruit ninjas" has on their devices.
[G2 Original Android Development] Artim_96:
Hardware support is there. For all I know ARMs Neon extension is made for also doing that stuff...I think it's the same way Apple makes it. I don't think they are able to really change ARMs designs that much even if they have the license.

I think the way it is implemented in the Kernel or so makes a bit inefficient.

[G2 Original Android Development] Fas1h:
Ok so.... bad stupid question thats probably going to make you want to ban and probably even kill me...

So read the following only if you are high on patience (and)or completely stoned:

Can I maybe just install it over stock rom without flashing bootstacks? (like with cm 12.1) So I can as easily restore backup... I am on stock rooted (with autorec) ZVG right now.
[G2 Original Android Development] Artim_96:
Sure you can. But at least make a clean install (wipe system, cache, dalvik-cache and data). If you want to make sure everything is working at its best flash butstack and stuff. On page 108 or so there is what you should flash in which order (I already asked that)
[G2 Original Android Development] Fas1h:
Well... Installed 7/28 and I didnt flash bootstack... but no nfc.

Other than that, loving the rom. Great work!!

Camera too seems really good. Tried comparing a lot of pics taken with stock under same light conditions on same angles and other than really minor differences nothing seems off.

No problem. When I had this issue (on vs980 and needed JB baseband) I wiped both caches, data, and system..then had to clean flash a previous rom to get things to work. After booting, I went back into recovery and restored my backup (would still bootloop if just restored backup first).

This can easily be seen buy reading a couple comments but I'll summarize.

1. It's pretty stable I haven't had any crashes at all or reboots or any of that sort

2. Battery depends on use but for me and most others it's not very good. But again it's still in alpha so it should improve with updates. As of now none of the 5.0 roms really have good battery.

3. Only bug I see is signal stuck on 2 bars even when I know it should be higher or lower but it's not a big deal.

Look guys, I appreciate the feedback. But please keep the complaining about small things like signal bars and battery to a minimum. Right now, we are using a mixture of hacky G2 KitKat blobs & binaries with ones from the Nexus 5. It booting right now is a miracle in itself.

Most of these issues will be gone when the official release of Lollipop from LG comes in a few months. Until then, we have to be patient and work with what we've got.

I'm not mad, I just don't want you guys to be upset about what is released. [MENTION=4662457]Rashed97[/MENTION] (and the rest of the G2 Dream Team) and rmcc of CM are the only reasons that we have working device trees right now. Show them some gratitude!

Anyway, I hope everyone had a great weekend. I'll be building again later. The only issue that is urgent, at the moment, is the D803 edify script bug. I will be placing the workaround (with credit, of course) that was posted before into the OP.

I will also begin F320 work soon. Please be patient. That's all I'm asking in return for these builds. Most of you have been more than that, and I'm grateful for it. Thank you all!
