I know another user said yes and yes, but I've found it to be yes and no. I continued using the bumped version of twrp installed by thus rom going on to various other non-bumped roms. And xdabbeb himself said the recovery doesn't care what rom you flash. [MENTION=2941286]xdabbeb[/MENTION], please correct me if I'm mistaken, I don't want to confuse people.

Anyone know a way to disable the shutter sound of the stock camera without installing Xposed? I'd rather not use it as it prevents the Optimum app from working.
[Verizon LG G2] jesssiii:
If you use the xcam you can install xdabbeb's xcam settings app which allows you to disable shutter sound. I never tried the G3 camera app, but the G2 one had shutter sound and no sound built into it's settings. I'm assuming you checked though.

VZW LG G2
[Verizon LG G2] tripjnj:
Yeah, no-go in the G3 camera. Only reason I prefer it to the xcam is that the xcam is very slow on the shutter for me. Hit button, wait a sec or 2, picture gets taken. Because of this I often miss the shot completely. Maybe i'm missing a setting or something.
[Verizon LG G2] DrPopper:
Yeah, you can use a different setting other than auto and it will snap it a lot faster. Like sport mode, and the pictures still turn out very well. I use this while taking action pics and have had very good results. I really like the xcam.

xcam

Can anyone tell me how to install the newest version of Xcam on this ROM? I keep getting FC's with the version I tried.
[Verizon LG G2] z3pp3lin:
Are you using ART?
[Verizon LG G2] andrewallday:
Not using ART. The way I got 6.0.0 was to download xcam lg settings and it prompted me to download it. But it just FC's right away.
[Verizon LG G2] z3pp3lin:
I know how you got it. I asked because it won't install on KK ART, however, if installed on Dalvik, and then switching to ART will make it FC. Uninstall and try again. If it still FCs, get xdabbbeb a log. I had no issues when I used it.

Edit: I see what you mean - that we just got the 5.3 update. It does FC in VR panorama mode. Clear app data and you should be fine. This should be talked about in Google Hangouts, since it's where the thread is for XCam beta testers. And I'll get him a log.
[Verizon LG G2] xdabbeb:
I've already spoken with [MENTION=4650987]z3pp3lin[/MENTION] about this, but VR Pano doesn't work with the G3 driver included in this firmware. That's why I removed it in the version included with the firmware. I'll make a separate version check for this fw in XCLGS for the next version.

Mass Texts Not Working Sometimes

Everything was fine for a month or so since I've had this rom, then the last few days my texts with multiple people in it aren't going through sometimes. Some of them are, but lately it's been getting worse. I don't get some texts that others are getting. Also, sometimes my responses go to a single person and not the party. Anyone have any ideas? Great rom btw

Anyone else experiencing some kind of battery drain? My battery seems to go rather fast lately, not sure why.
[Verizon LG G2] elite001mm:
Guys I have a problem. My battery life isn't very good on this ROM coming from jpc lollipop and I noticed that the GPU seems to be locked at 320mhz or higher... It shows that way in any kernel control app... And I'm at a loss of how to fix it.. I

assume that's why the battery isn't very good :confused:

EDIT: to the guy above me: yes. See if your GPU goes to idle or not.
[Verizon LG G2] xdabbeb:
The gpu freq report is inaccurate and can be ignored. If you're experiencing excessive (for you) battery usage, then you should go about tracking it down using all of the available tools out there. I'm not trying to be harsh, but it has nothing to do with the firmware or kernel. I get over 8 hours of SoT with 1.5 days off the charger, as do many others.

More often than not, it's due to a misbehaving app, service, play services, sync issues, etc. In other words, it's something unique to your phone and you should troubleshoot it as such. This isn't the place to discuss it regardless. I would recommend trying one of the threads dedicated to battery monitoring tools. Better Battery Stats here on XDA is still the best, imo.

To flash your new 39a roms from this one, do I need to do anything special? I think I just need to flash the 39a bootstack and then the rom, but by the OP of this rom, it seems more complicated. Any help appreciated.
[Verizon LG G2] xdabbeb:
The directions are a little more verbose here as when I wrote them I hadn't already been writing things out for two days :), but they're more or less the same. I just omitted the optional Steps 3/4 in the 39A thread. Steps 7-9 aren't there for obvious reasons. In other words, just follow the directions and you'll be fine.

[Verizon LG G2] jesssiii:
I have no idea what you're asking. Is the utility not working? Xdabbeb usually includes the hidden menu in his roms.

Also, this rom is for Verizon specifically, so there should be no extra setting you need. If you're not on Verizon, you should probably use something else.

[Verizon LG G2] detonation:
I noticed in the latest update to XCam settings it says "added check/dl for vs982.5 fw". Is there something special about installing XCam on this ROM? I'm planning on just using XCam settings to install it, but I also like knowing what things are doing so I can better understand/troubleshoot possible issues later.
[Verizon LG G2] tholmes8291:
Xcam settings will install it. Nothing more to do after that.
[Verizon LG G2] detonation:
Right, but I want to know what it's installing, as if I didn't have Xcam settings and were to install it manually from downloading it here. I like to know what changes I'm making to my device (not because I don't trust the dev, but because if there's an issue, it's a lot easier to explain and troubleshoot)
[Verizon LG G2] xdabbeb:
[MENTION=2302266]detonation[/MENTION] All XCLGS does is point you to the appropriate url. Nothing is being changed, per se. I just had to make a separate build due to the unique nature of this firmware. Namely, it's the only G2 with a full G3 driver. This also means removing the VR Pano option and a different set of binaries. You can/could see for yourself by opening up the apk before installing it. Nothing nefarious.
[Verizon LG G2] detonation:
Thanks. Definitely wasn't worried about anything sketchy, but was curious which XCam version it will install, since I wasn't sure if I should use the G2 or G3 version for the reason you just mentioned.

Np. I was planning on putting the link in the OP here as well, but keep getting distracted by other things. I'm back to working on this fw now anyway. Not a fan of 39A.

I am having absolutely unacceptable audio issues with Bluetooth and regular calling. I need immediate help.

Regardless of bluetooth connection, my voice is apparently unintelligible while I can hear their audio fine. I can solve this issue with a rebiot, but it occurs again after using Bluetooth and remains even after bluetooth is disabled again.

I just checked myself in other audio programs and it is NOT a fault of my headset. It's mic comes in clear

Same here! Thought it was just me and something I must have done. Let us know how you make out. I've been having to reboot and that only resolves it for a call or 2.

Awesome! I am one of the unlucky one with a difficult phone, I got multiple reboots in zones with poor cell signal (provided logs months ago, no feedback).

Return from 39a

As much as I want to like the 39a flashable rom it is not playing nice with my battery and seems be not as smooth. If I want to return to this rom do I simply flash the 26 or 28a bootloader, wipe data & cache, then flash this rom? Is there anything I need to do?
[Verizon LG G2] jesssiii:
Flash the 26A bootstack and the 12b bootloader.

VZW LG G2
[Verizon LG G2] tripjnj:
I still cannot get past this issue. I just did a wipe cache/dirty flash and switched from Dalvik to ART. I was able to get one clear call through and the very next call was an inaudible mess. I rebooted again and the same thing-- one clear call and then back to bad. Being that there are at least 3 of us experiencing this and it seems to have started around the same time, is it possible that it's something service related?

Been running great with this ROM since it was released and would hate to have to do a clean wipe/install without even being sure it would resolve it. I've never provided logs before and not sure what that entails.
[Verizon LG G2] xdabbeb:
Yes, that's the likely conclusion. If it were the fw it would've been happening to everyone from the start. As I mentioned in another thread, VZW has been having issues with their VoLTE service (it's still in beta), so try disabling it. There will be a new version of this fw shortly anyway, so I'd wait to wipe everything.
[Verizon LG G2] tmach:
That was my first thought. VoLTE was already turned off on the phone but was still listed as a service on the Verizon website. Turning it off there didn't do any good--it just messed up Google Voice again.

I've been trying to get a lot for it just in case, but since the only Bluetooth device I use is my car I haven't had the chance.
[Verizon LG G2] svensudels:
I too have started to experience this exact, same problem... Been with ROM from day 1 and just started experiencing this recently... Logs to follow.....
[Verizon LG G2] Zackptg5:
I've had audio issues like that and I'm using volte and hd calling. However, whenever I turn wifi off, data will show up as 4g in the status bar but will not work unless i toggle it on and off. Not a big deal, but rather an annoyance.
[Verizon LG G2] xdabbeb:
I'm not sure there will be much I can do even with the logs as I don't see how this could be a fw issue given then variables. If disabling and removing Advanced calling from your VZW account doesn't resolve it, another likely possibility is that a recent app update that some people use has caused it. It would explain why some have seen it and that it only started recently.

EDIT: It's also possible that whatever said app update has changed/broken could be resolved with a clean flash, but as I said...I'd hold off as 1.1.0 is just about done.

That's an old issue that was fixed some time ago. You need to set an ePDG system property to fix it. Just search my posts in the thread.
[Verizon LG G2] tripjnj:
I have had VoLTE turned off (through verizon online and on the phone) when first encountering this, so it is not the cause. It definitely seems bluetooth related as I have been able to make repeated calls while bluetooth was off. Even with bluetooth on, calls from the handset are fine. But once a call is placed using bluetooth (in my car), any further calls are inaudible to the person I'm talking to whether I use bluetooth or not, until I reboot the phone.
[Verizon LG G2] tmach:
I did install Words With Friends around the time this started. Don't really remember if it was right before or right after. Don't know what that would do with Bluetooth but I may try a clean flash and try it with and without Words just to see if that's it.
[Verizon LG G2] tripjnj:
I dont have Words installed. Wondering if it could be something like WhatsApp? I do see that has been updated recently.
[Verizon LG G2] Xsoldier2000:

Don't plan on Xposed ever being compatible with KK ART. Rovo89 mentioned a while ago he might but I highly doubt it. He doesn't spend as much time (It takes a lot ) as in the past( life priorities) and it's only in alpa 2 for L 5 - 5.02. And with L 5.1 getting released, that will take a higher priority that KK.
[Verizon LG G2] Xsoldier2000:

New update Questions

So by the sounds of it, version 1.1 is a 27a based rom which means we'll have to flash the 27a/28a bootstack if we're coming from v1.0? Even though it says 27a or 28a bootloader would work, I'd be best off with the 27a bootloader? Also, for restoring the download mode, it says 26a bootloader only. So we can't have download mode with version 1.1 of this rom?
[Verizon LG G2] UrbanBounca:
In 1.0, when I disable mobile data, the 4G icon would disappear. In 1.1.0, when I disable mobile data, the 4G icon will gray out. Is that normal for 1.1.0?
[Verizon LG G2] markml0528:
I thought maybe it was just the initial release having some performance issues, but it's still present in v1.1.0 now. Why is the performance on this ROM not up to par with the performance of the vs980 v2.3.0 ROM? I notice more stuttering, choppiness, and lag on this vs982.5 ROM.
[Verizon LG G2] jesssiii:
The bootstacks on the resource thread don't wipe the laf partition, thus preserving download mode. Use the 27A bootstack or 28A (the one I used). If you have download mode now, you won't lose it.

This fw has always outperformed the VS980 base for me, my testers, etc. If you aren't seeing that, then it's either something unique to your configuration (a particular app or setting) or placebo as you "think" a stock base should do so.

Neither...nor is it a simple "G3 port". It's its own thing.

Thanks for reminding me. I meant to put a link to a version specific to this fw in the OP. To answer your question though...the only differences (at this point) between the 5.x and 6.x branches of XCam are the UI and the inclusion of the gesture selfie. That said, I decided that I preferred the new UI enough to backport it to 5.x, so I'll post that version as well for those who chose to run ART. Give me an hour or so.

[Verizon LG G2] markml0528:
"I know you've been pushing me hard to update the other fw, but given the facts there's really no reason to"

I apologize if that's how I've come off. But I only sent you a few bug reports and asked once (maybe twice?) if you planned on upgrading the other v2.3.0 firmware. You told me you didn't plan on updating it for a while so I accepted it. I really like the work that you do, I bought your xcam settings app a few days ago.

Regarding the performance difference between the two ROMs, what metric are you and your testers using to determine that the performance is superior on the vs982.5 ROM? It could very well be placebo on my end, or perhaps my own apps causing a problem. To find out I'm going to run several benchmarks after doing a completely clean flash (the ones that Anandtech uses for reviews) on both firmwares and see what the numbers say.

I don't mind being wrong. And if that's what the benchmarks show I'll still post them.
[Verizon LG G2] xdabbeb:
I think one's time would be better spent in a number of other ways, but you're certainly free to do whatever you want. No matter what your results show, however, I don't want them posted here. I don't care to turn this thread into another pointless benchmark debate. There's a reason most devs don't take them seriously. We base it on real-world usage of the firmware. Even if you choose to disregard what I say (as the one with the most intimate knowledge of both fw), a quick search would tend to suggest that your experience is relatively unique.
[Verizon LG G2] ffejy462:
Just follow op instructions. Download bootstack and rom (art patch if using art). Verify md5 of all downloads. Reboot to recovery. Flash 27a or 28a bootstack (I used 28a). Wipe data, cache, and Dalvik (system is wiped during rom flash). Flash rom. Flash art patch if using art. Reboot system. If using art, enable art in developer settings and after reboot flash extras if wanted. Download apps from playstore.

ads banners everywhere

Hello,

Thank you very much for continuing work - I still haven't found a phone that would make me want to replace the G2. Your ROMs and developments are invaluable.

After flashing (clean) to 1.1.0 with ART zip the phone was getting very hot and battery percents were going down quick - but I wouldn't judge battery life before few full cycles.

There was one problem that made me to come back to 1.0.0 -ads.

On 1.1.0 there are ads everywhere, banners, etc. Making browsing unbearable and taking screen real estate.

After switching back to 1.0.0 - they're gone.

What is the cause?
