Hello. Is it possible to underclock the CPU on this ROM? I know on my Xperia tablet, the option is there. just not sure if it's the same with all devices under the official cyanogenmod umbrella. Thank you :)
[G3 Original Android Development] maxwarp79:
Hello,

few months ago I flashed CM12 on my G3 (D855) and I liked it but I returned to stock based ROM (CloudyG3) because of two reasons:

camera quality, no laser focus support, no 4K and 60fps recording;

LG Quick Remote support (this problem is solved with this flashable zip).

How is the camera quality/features situation now? Has it improved?

Now I read of random reboots and other issues with latest nightly build...

Do you advise me to re-try CM12.1 or is better to stay with a stock based one?
[G3 Original Android Development] MalekoUK:
Use a custom kernel, like 777.

---------- Post added at 10:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:38 AM ----------

I use the moto camera, really fast and great quality.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3172783

CyanogenMod camera has always been naff for me.

Also random reboots seem to have gone for me since past two nightlies.
[G3 Original Android Development] Step-han:
U can underclock it with standaad CM kernel. Use a app like Kernel Auditor.
[G3 Original Android Development] mrjayviper:
isn't there an option in Settings => Performance to underclock? it's available on my 2 Xperia Z devices
[G3 Original Android Development] easy_ci:
Hey guys!

I just wanted to give CM another chance after being nearly 4 months on stock-based rom.

I wiped all and flashed cm-recovery and cm 12.1 itself from today (09.04.)

I flashed LG QuickRemote and MotoCam too (dont bdlieve its the reason...) with rom-included cm-kernel!

My earphones are not recognized when plugged in. Tested original LG and my Beats!

Read the thread before but didnt find a similiar problem?!

Anyone else?
[G3 Original Android Development] Nuuq:
This can sound weird. I really miss one feature of this BEAUTIFUL rom. Is there any way to have Auto Brightness in Notification drawer? There is LiveDisplay, but that is not what I need. I need good old Auto-20%-50%-70%-100%. :)

Atm, I'm using HD Widgets, single one, just for this feature, but I really think that I'm missing something. This feature have to be in this rom.

Thank you developers for making it possible not to be dependant on LG and others like them.

Live long and prosper.

I can't get NFC to work. NFC is turned on, but it just doesn't read tags. Anyone else with the same problem?
[G3 Original Android Development] 3dawg:
Last couple weeks of nightlies have been a disaster for my G3. Constant reboots and they're getting worse. Flashing the latest made no difference. The sorry state of AOSP development this device....everyone just uses the CM codebase so all CM based roms are broken in the same way.

Maybe it's time I work on my own.
[G3 Original Android Development] MalekoUK:
No problems here, for me last few have got better!
[G3 Original Android Development] jez9999:
For me, it's lockups. My d855 usually locks up at least once a day (not when i'm using it; it's when I just leave it for a while usually) with the latest CM ROM and I have to take the battery out to force it to reset. :(

What the hell are they doing to the ROM to make it so unstable?
[G3 Original Android Development] lauterm:
I think that's been dropped in favor of the brightness slider. You can turn it on under settings > notification drawer.
[G3 Original Android Development] JoinTheRealms:
You guys should probably drop some logs so its possible to see what's going on
[G3 Original Android Development] takis:
I also have that kind of behaviour....
[G3 Original Android Development] jez9999:
Which logs? Where? What do I look at when my phone has locked up and I've had to physically take the battery out to do a hard reset?
[G3 Original Android Development] lixxus:
same issue for me. really bad random reboots.

im hoping the devs can look into asap
[G3 Original Android Development] Nuuq:
Hey ppl,

It seems that since I went from stock to CM12, my battery life is worst than before. Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems like that.

Do you keep stock CM kernel, or download something else?

Live long and prosper.
[G3 Original Android Development] JoinTheRealms:
The most important one would be the "last_kmsg". This needs to be "pulled" after you've reset the phone. Logcat would be handy too. The general way of obtaining these logs is via ADB (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2185929) but anyway is fine really.
[G3 Original Android Development] derekoh:
I've been getting this too lately - last few nightlies. Phone just locks-up, screen off, can't do anything but remove the battery and restart.
[G3 Original Android Development] djdeeles:
Me too. Thats very annoying. :confused:
[G3 Original Android Development] omer323:
here too...
[G3 Original Android Development] Ruffuss:
Some problems I found:

- When I disable an APP the icon still shown in drawer. It disappears only after reboot.

- I have an icon called "SIM toolkit" that not works, it says "app isn't installed"

- Camera movies only in 1080p (not 4K like stock ROM);

That's it. The ROM is very good and very fast.
[G3 Original Android Development] Ferretx:
Done a clean install,latest nightly,smooth as butter with 777 kernel.
[G3 Original Android Development] mstanarevic:
Yep, same here
[G3 Original Android Development] jez9999:
OK so my LG G3 with Cyanogenmod installed just locked up on me as usual (green light was constantly on, screen dead, phone unresponsive) so I hard rebooted by removing the battery and went straight to SysLog - Last Kernel Log is greyed out. /proc/last_kmsg does not exist, even as a 0 byte file. Is this meant to exist? Is there something I have to do to enable it?
[G3 Original Android Development] hakkidongel:
I'm thinking of switching from blisspop 4.0 to CM12.1.

Can I dirty flash it? I'm looking for better battery life
[G3 Original Android Development] bmatney:
I wouldn't.
[G3 Original Android Development] -Luigi.:
Sharing my experience / notes / problems

Well, just would like to share my experience and some notes about this ROM. Using 13/September build + 777 kernel

- Battery is great (better than on CloudyG3)

- I didnt get problems with the android itself, no bugs at all (interface).

Some problems I can tell:

- Some random reboots (about 1x a day)

- Some animations has some delay, specially in the transitions when going back, for exemple going from (Settings > Display) to (Settings). It takes some time after you click the back button, could be faster, for example Resurrection Remix doesnt has this problem, its 100% smooth and no delay.

- Audio recording quality sucks

(it seems to be too sensitive, much noise on quiet situations and distortions when recording high volume audio (not really that high actually). Is there anyway to avoid this problem? Audio when doing video recordings are pretty decent.

I've uploaded a sample so you can understand what Im talking about. https://soundcloud.com/luigi-de-f-fiamoncini/whatsapp-recording-sample-cm121

- (not really a problem, just a suggestion, if its possible): Add the function to "block" the tap2wake function when the proximity sensor is active (while its on pocket) cause always when I have the phone in the pocket, the screen turns on and start clicking things (skipping tracks and opening notifications...)

Thank you in advantage... awesome rom anyway, I hope it gets even more stable :)
[G3 Original Android Development] :
Can anyone tell me how do I return to stock using Linux / Ubuntu "Not the LG flash tool Windows based method"? My earphone has died right after 1.5 month of purchasing the phone and the service centre is refusing to register warranty claim unless I unroot / return to stock.

+1 on AudioRecording!!!!
[G3 Original Android Development] Pumpino:
Why aren't CM nightlies ever up to date with the latest Android release (currently r18)? Many CM based ROMs already are.

Edit: Just installed the latest nightly and it is r18. It was on r6 for several weeks.
[G3 Original Android Development] Ferretx:
Where can you see the Revision number?
[G3 Original Android Development] Pumpino:
The build number is LVY48F, which is r18 according to http://source.android.com/source/build-numbers.html#source-code-tags-and-builds.
[G3 Original Android Development] savsir:
Please fix random reboots :(
[G3 Original Android Development] -Luigi.:
It is so awful that I cant even use Shazam, it cant recognize any song that is playing in a reasonable volume. :crying:
[G3 Original Android Development] glyxkecks:
+1

For me one reason I'm not using CM12 right now... (The other is photo quality)
[G3 Original Android Development] Nuuq:
Is it possible to avoid these unlocks on pocket? Don't want to set pattern just for this. Other than that, never go back to stock.

Live long and prosper.
[G3 Original Android Development] soulstaker:
Just got my G3 and I wanted to flash CM as soon as possible, but this matters to me: how much quality is being lost by using it? And is this a problem with CM or all AOSP ROMs have the same problem?
[G3 Original Android Development] JoinTheRealms:
It's a general aosp problem (which includes CM). Supposably (i'm no android export) my understanding is LG's camera blobs (drivers if you will) won't run outside the stock firmwares camera framework, which differs from AOSP. Consequently the phones forced to use generic blobs that lack optimizations for sensor in the g3.

With this being the case, i wouldn't be overly hopeful for a fix. At least the camera works, with acceptable quality.
[G3 Original Android Development] TrancëJay:
So no 720p@60fps or 720p@120fps camera for CM12.1?
[G3 Original Android Development] DominicRead:
What's the most stable release of this? Had a March 28th that was perfect but then started using Cloudy and other ROMs. Want to jump back in. Is most recent build as good as any? Back in the day some releases were more stable than others. Thanks in advance.
[G3 Original Android Development] aha360:
I just recently received a replacement G3 as mine FUBAR'd and I just got back into CyanogenMod - if I were you, just grab the most recent nightly release as they are as good as any, as you have just said, BUT the two main changes are that you can now change the DPI settings in the Settings (Display) menu and that the task switcher preview images (press the Square navigational banner icon) have worsened in quality from what I can tell.
[G3 Original Android Development] Ammiraglio:
Hello, I just can't understand something, please.

This thread seems to be dead, the owner seems to have abandoned this discussion. Now, how can the delevopment for LG3 go ahead to fix the issues if there is no reference to report bugs to, or to understand the status of the improvements?

Thank you
[G3 Original Android Development] -Luigi.:
I would say the quality loss isnt that bad, really. I can't notice HUGE different when comparing to stock one. It just seems to be a little slower to take the shots, but the pictures arent that bad.

---------- Post added at 10:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:15 AM ----------

True... :/

Many reports here but no answer, we can see many changes in the CM Changelog, but almost none really fixing something serious for our G3.
[G3 Original Android Development] BlueEyes99:
I am very dissapointed with the CyanogenMod released for this device, to the point that I might go back to stock roms.

Since my very first Android device (Samsung Galaxy S) I run AOSP/CM roms, so I am not a newbie.

Anyway back to the problems, which are not so easy to dismiss. With CM12 The device lags a lot, to the point where I have to manually kill apps which run in the background (shouldnt that been the job of the OS??). Chrome runs very badly on the device, surfing on some websites is a pain! While my wifes iPhone doesnt seem to share the same problems. Right now I am listening to some music and device skips a lot! I havent had such experience listening to mp3s since the first time I was listening to mp3s on my underpowered pc 15 years ago. The radio loses connectivity quite a lot, which was also a problem on my Samsung Galaxy S4 with CM, which seems to be a CM problem in general.

Battery Life is bad, it seems the CPU throttling doesnt work because on a lot of occasions the device is getting hot.

The camera is so bad to the point that I stopped taking pictures altogether.

Whats the point of having an LG G3 an extremely capable device and run CM12 which completely destroys the experience?
[G3 Original Android Development] Ferretx:
I totally agree Bro, it seems Cm is slowly going to ****, well for the LG G3 anyway.

---------- Post added at 10:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:37 AM ----------

I went over to BrokenOS and never looked back, loving the tweaks and layered theme's.
[G3 Original Android Development] JoinTheRealms:
Understand that, as far as i can tell [MENTION=2385005]invisiblek[/MENTION] is the only person maintaining the D855, if not all the other variants. And he doesn't have the D855. Gotta appreciate the effort he's putting in as it is
[G3 Original Android Development] MalekoUK:
I had that and it was painful! I resulted to using the CM browser or another third party one.

Past few nightlies haven't had that problem for me, and that's using the CM stock kernel. VERY smooth now with no lags..... for now... :rolleyes:
[G3 Original Android Development] -Luigi.:
Yep... Agreed [2]

Im also disappointed with the G3 development, I had CM since my Samsung Galaxy 5 (damn!), used it on my Galaxy S2 also.

It seems we didnt make a good choice choosing G3, I see it has many problems (overheating, lag issues)... Im quite disappointed. I personally doesnt like modified interfaces such as LG and Samsung, I like the pure stock android. I just bought this phone cause I got it for a great price and thought it would worth, cause I could put a CM rom on it. But I messed up, already tried many CM roms and always go back to a LG-based one. :/

Best ROM I've used in therms of performance is the CM11 and Resurrection Remix LP, but as they have other problems that bother me, I also had to leave them,
[G3 Original Android Development] slybunda:
cyanogen is a failure for this device.
[G3 Original Android Development] MalekoUK:
Man, people seem to forgot that you are running a BETA piece of software... a NIGHTLY... NOT a stable release.

You know what you are doing when you download a Nightly release and should know what to expect.

Stop moaning about problems, if you rely THAT much on your phone then don't install a Nightly build...

You will NOT get the same quality camera compared to Stock, you WILL have bugs etc until a stable release is made.

Report bugs... yes, moan about bugs... NO.
[G3 Original Android Development] haerwu:
[MENTION=2185489]MalekoUK[/MENTION] I am fully aware that cyanogenmod comes without any support. That they ignore bugs and users.

Nightly are nightly. But do you remember when last time CM had stable release? Probably CM 10.2 times. Most of users use whatever possible cause project stopped doing any stable stuff.

In my opinion since Cyanogen Inc got created all work on stabilisation went into commercial stuff without caring about other devices.

Nowadays if you want any stability you have to choose device very very carefully as most of them are on "oh, it builds?? Ship!" with a hope that maybe someone will came and join a team to make it better.

---------- Post added at 05:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:05 PM ----------

[/COLOR [MENTION=2185489]MalekoUK[/MENTION] and you are wrong with "report bugs" stuff. Official note from CM project is "do not report bugs against nightly".
[G3 Original Android Development] Ammiraglio:
First of all sorry for my bad english. Said that.... I think the LG G3 is a really good device. According to me the problem is that this maintenance is not coordinated in the right way.

I read lots of comments and feedbacks about the nightlies....most of the time the issues reported are always the same.

Now, how can we list in a clear and official way all major bugs in order to have the developers working on these priorities (if possible) and interact with them to give support and feedbacks in testing?

We are having nightlies since the begin of the year and today we still have not any "beta" releases, I'm not talking about stable ones, but even a beta one. Can the moderator /owner of this thread tell his thoughts on that, please?

Grazie e ciao
[G3 Original Android Development] slybunda:
for free cant complain.
[G3 Original Android Development] Nuuq:
I went to Broken OS, and, atm, seems better. CM is something I know and I trust, so this is a bit weird, but I like it.

But in second that I see any improvement in developing CM for G3, I'm back.

CM user since 10.

What I found weird in last few nightlies is that my phone was hot after few seconds of doing anything. Sending SMS...

So, I just can hope that CM will stay with us, cause, let's face it, G3 is still amazing piece of hardware.
[G3 Original Android Development] Ammiraglio:
Nobody is complaining.... I just wanted to know how to contribute to improve and help to fix issues. This thread seems a bit orphan
[G3 Original Android Development] Nuuq:
Still no word from any developer... Strange. Looks like we are alone :(
[G3 Original Android Development] _delice_doluca_:
Everybody should complain. Do not take it as an unloading of anger or disappointment, take it as critism to make things better.

Being free or paid does not affect that fact at all. This is why and how open source exists in the first place.

I have suprised when I have first read articles about Linux being open and gifted to everyone. But they believe, charging everyone the same price for the same software was not just. Because not everybody have the same amount of money and money should not become the only criteria for valuing a software. Instead using that software, creating something out of it, helping it get better and help those who make it with the ways you can, determines it's real value.

So any contrubituon and any critism should ve wellcomed.
[G3 Original Android Development] Symos:
Hi guys

Anyone else experiencing random shutdowns when the phone is inactive? It happens a lot, maybe 4-5 times a day.

Looking around the net I saw this used to be a common problem for the G3 but LG apparently fixed this with an update.

However I'm on CM (obviously!) so LG's fix doesn't really apply. I tried updating to the latest nightly a couple of days ago (hadn't done so for about a month) but this didn't help.

What's weird is that I've been on CM for at least 6 months and this only started happening recently. So one would assume it's a hardware issue, but then how come LG fixed this with a software update?

Thanks in advance
[G3 Original Android Development] JoinTheRealms:
There have been a few reports of this, its impossible to know whats causing it without logs. If you could pull these, id be interested to see if there's something obvious causing it.

If your not comfortable pulling the various logs with adb, theres a nice app called SysLog on the playstore that will grab them for you automatically

thanks:good:
[G3 Original Android Development] Meneldur:
I had this behavior since half a year ago or so, but I'm blaming 777's kernel and my settings. 777's is a marvel but there are still some things to iron out.

My phone didn't have that many reboots, just 1 every 2 days after a black screen. Now better on that kernel's R18.

Try changing kernel parameters or even switching to 777's.

Mnldr/D855/CM12.1
[G3 Original Android Development] Tchiort:
Like a few persons said, the problem occured with several previous builds (none in the last week for me though).

I had this problem and I use the CM kernel...

When it happens, I flash the next build and it is usually solved.
[G3 Original Android Development] Symos:
Thank you all for your suggestions.

I'll try to pull the logs first with SysLog (although it tells me I don't have root access, I'll have to fix that) and see if any useful information is in there.

Otherwise I'll re-flash (even though as I said the ROM I have now is from 3 days ago) and see what happens.

If none of the above works, I guess I'll have to go back to stock. I really don't want that, but the shutdowns now happen all the time and it's really annoying, especially since I need to remove the battery for it to start again.
[G3 Original Android Development] Nuuq:
Unfortunately, back on stock. Happily, there is Cloudy rom. Much faster than stock, but with stock camera.

Love it.

Tried all camera mods out there, and none came even close.

As soon as CM make any progress, even smallest one, I'll be back.
[G3 Original Android Development] MisterRio:
This is annoying te **** out of me. The one basic thing a telephone should be able to to do is handle phonecalls normally, in stead of blocking my screen and thus my whole phone.

Hello

Today I installed CM12.1 Nightlies from Sept. 24

For now, it responds adequate, fast and without any issue, however I noticed that fm radio missing so I have to search for one in google (spirit 2 free) but there are something that bother me, is the WiFi connection, it always shutdown after I lock and power off the screen, I verified in WiFi Advance options the ability to stay always ON the wifi connection, but it always shutdown after screen power off.

Hi. Wanted to report that now the skip functionality from my headphones, along with the volume down control, has been lost with the recent update.

Clock force close

Hello everyone,

i was using cm for a while and decided to change to cloudy but i

just dont like the lg surface and prefer the stock android so i switched

back to cm, since then my stock cm clock app force closes everytime.

And it hasnt been updated until now.

Anyone having the same issue?

Other than that my cm is running very stable, no random shutdown, no overheating,

no audio problems just a bad camera is what is bothering me and of course the clock app problem.

Thanks

Hey, I'm currently using the latest version and noticed the Google camera app is horrible. The focus is so bad.. I disabled the cm camera app and for some reason can't enable it again.

Is there a solution? A way to install the original g3 camera so which I heard is great? A way to fix the Google camera?
[G3 Original Android Development] Nuuq:
Sorry mate but you'll never make camera on CM to be as awesome as stock one. Only reason why I, and it broke my heart, went back on stock rom. Went with Cloudy, and TBH, I'm surprised how good it works. I know that benchmarks don't mean much, but with CM I was getting 39K, and with Cloudy 46K, of course, both with no tweaks.

I am using Cloudy with Xposed, and I'm gonna stay on this untill there is any progress with CM.

CHEERS.
[G3 Original Android Development] takis:
Can someone from cm team see this post and fix the main issues that have been bugs for sooo long? When is the proximity going to be fixed instead of being recognised as just an aosp bug? When is the power on while on charge going to work?
