I'm not getting network on the latest Nightly.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Whiplashh:
I am. I think it has to do with the new sim commit added. But then again, I don't know.

which gapps is working with this because each time i flash it just doesnt work. So is it full, micro, mini, or what that works with this rom

---------- Post added at 09:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:30 PM ----------

Also my messages arent working when i try sending a message through the default messenger any ideas why? But it does have my data connected
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Whiplashh:
The messaging has been an issue since cm11 on CM's part. No idea why.

[Sprint LG Optimus G] dopy25:
... What doesn't work about it?

Will it flash in recovery?

You get force closes on boot until you reset?

You have to be a little more specific.

Also, are you using the 5.0 GApps? I linked it on the last page. I use the Micro Modular Package and have NEVER had a problem. The 5.0.x PA GApps is here. 4th package from the bottom of the first post.

[Sprint LG Optimus G] Jamesredmond82:
Sorry I know better....lol....but yes i was getting constant force closures with the google apps? which nightly are you using that worked.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] L1061K:
Same problem here, tried all versions on gApps and I still receive FCs on boot :(
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Jamesredmond82:
tell me how am i suppose to flash just for clarification,

wipe dalvik, system, and cache right and then flash the rom

wipe dalvik and cache then flash gapps

is that correct?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dopy25:
I wipe dalvik and cache after flashing gapps, but other than that it sounds right.

Full wipe, System, data I think I just realized something... Are you wiping data as well? Because if not, you are using data from another rom.

About your other question, I have used them all. Seriously, I have tried every Lollipop rom I can find. And I have flashed a few different nightlies of each.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] FcoEnrique:
Is only me or can't change the keyboard, it FCs every time.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Kevinjoa:
I guess a cm upstream bug, because it is same for my cm12 builds.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] FcoEnrique:
Ok thanks.

What about the the launcher3 always as default? ... I can't set google launcher as default.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] erkasmoter:
1. install Google Now Launcher

2. install Google Search

3. Go to Settings > Clear the Data of Launcher 3 App. > Force Stop the Launcher3 App.

4. Reboot

5. After booting, wait for 1min. for the Google Launcher to load

6. Press the Home Key and you should be prompted on what Launcher to use

7. Select Google Now Launcher > Always

After that, you'll also notice that on the Settings Menu under Personalization, there will be a Home Menu.

Hope it'll work for you.

enjoy! :D
[Sprint LG Optimus G] stubull05:
not working

Seriously, WTH?! for some reason everyone's device is working. I can install the CM12 Rom, runs great, then I add gapps and it goes straight to crap. Tried micro and mini. Just keeps force closing everything. Clean install, any suggestions? tried wiping cache after rom install, tried installing both zips together...nothin. Guess Im back to CM11 for now.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Matty77:
have you tried older versions? I've seen some bad builds.

And instead of PA, maybe try another 'brand' of gapps:

https://s.basketbuild.com/gapps
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Whiplashh:
That's the gapps I use. They work great with those. For some reason PA gapps mess up cm12 for me also. I'd suggest the user with the same issue try these.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] stubull05:
Already tried this 5.0 gapps with cm12, no luck. Just tried pac man which is what I had original with the 4.4.x, no luck. Will try the minimal gapps and see what happens. Of course I deleted my backup lol. Sure its something with my phone. By the way pac man has crazy awesome roms, the new cm12 is too once I get it working.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] stubull05:
Just updated to twrp 2.8.4 and was able to install pac man and gapps with no issues. Will try cm12 and 5.0 gapps to see if it works.

Update: Hope this helps someone. Finally got CM12 installed with gapps from https://s.basketbuild.com/gapps. My issue was apparently twrp. I was using version 2.7 with error status 7 after failed install , finally updated to 2.8.3 but force closes on gapps, updated to 2.8.4 and finally installed with no problem. Thanks for the help guys!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] danboarder:
[MENTION=2650731]stubull05[/MENTION] I had similar problems with twrp flashing gapps on the unofficial CM12 in another thread and solved it by using Phil's clockworkmod recovery instead of twrp.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MIB_91:
CM12 not put using CWM. Only with the help TWRP.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] xxxericxxx:
Where did you find 2.8.4, or are you not ls970? I have seen posts about 2.8.4 but can only actually find 2.8.3 for ls970.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] stubull05:
I'll post the link when I get to my computer later. The recovery update option is gonna be a great feature for future builds.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] xxxericxxx:
I found the one in the q and a on this thread, made me nervous but I figured I could use computer if I had to fix it. It did go through and even installed the gapps (I am trying the pico gapps) and all seems well. Side note, updated to latest nightly so I could see new boot animation, and even it has a material design now. Thanks for the push to the 2.8.4.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MIB_91:
Where did you find 2.8.4? To date, there is only 2.8.3.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] xxxericxxx:
If you look at the last post of [RECOVERY][geehrc4g] TWRP 2.8.4.0 touch recovery [2015-01-13] thread there is a flashable for e975 that works for this also. Now I didn't make or restore nandroid with this recovery on my ls970 but I can say I know it will flash cm nightly and gapps.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MIB_91:
I think it would be better to wait for the LS970 2.8.4 version.

On the official website only 2.8.3 for LS970.

Feel free to test a build I made last night and make a comment on the review page.

Edit: looks like the commit was accepted
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Strizay:
I've had my phone put away for a while, since CM10. The digitizer broke so I shelfed it. For whatever reason I took it out a few days ago and put a new one on it and it still works great. I installed the Feb 03 nightly and I have to say I'm just blown away. I'm loving it. I haven't had any phone related issues at all. My weather app relies on GPS and it pretty much locked on right away, indoors.

But I do have a couple of questions though. Is it possible to center the clock and is there a working 3Minit Battery type of mod yet? I used to use Xposed Installer for the clock and other things, but I don't think it's working for Lollipop yet.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] natator99:
Earlier I updated to the 20150204 nightly and my hardware (and software when enabled) Home button stopped working. I've since reverted back to the 20150202 which has been pretty solid the past few days.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Strizay:
This is kinda off topic but still LS970 related. I was wondering what cell service you all are using with your flashed LS970. I was on PagePlus, but I let my number expire and as of Jan. they changed their policy against non VZ phones. Mine is still flashed to VZ on PP, so I need to get it activated and I'm not sure which carrier would be best to go with now. Thanks for the help.

Why does every build of Official CM 12 for LS970 Sprint LG Optimus G lag after 10 minutes or so after scrolling through browser (default browser and Chrome browser) or even scrolling through menu settings?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
I think ONDEMAND is bugged.

Try setting the CPU governor to INTERACTIVE on boot.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
Anybody else having trouble with voice to text? It's like Google voice search doesn't understand English.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Strizay:
What cell service are you guys all on?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] thehawdis:
Checking in here, amazed we have official CM12 on this hardware! Running 2/10 nightly amazingly smooth. Couple issues I have are the dark camera and bad GPS lock. I restored a stock backup, got a GPS lock then re-flashed the CM12 backup so we'll see if that helps (this was a trick that works on the LG G2).

By the way, I just dusted off my optimus G to activate on freedompop, it works! not listed as a supported BYOD device with them, but I can confirm it works. hello $10.99 phone plan!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Strizay:
freedom pop is crap, I just checked it out. they didn't even have a number close to my area. It's basically voice over ip, or over wifi right? I mean you can't use the phone service just anywhere. and it makes you download an app just to use the service, no thanks. I tried to deactivate my account and I can't just do that online, I have to call their customer service.

Anyone else use another provider?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] thehawdis:
Strizay--

I'm doing a one month trial to see if I can live with FreedomPop. It is voice over IP. you CAN use the phone service anywhere you have data service (LTE or 3G), not just over wifi. Yea , its not available everywhere. for example, I have poor service at my house so I couldn't use my ZIP code to sign up, but my work ZIP code allowed me to. This is because they want you to have some service at your main location. For me, not an issue if everything works fine over wifi, which is seems to.

For my usage, I think it will be enough, and is 1/4 of the price of my Sprint plan so for me its worth a shot. I'm not saying its for everyone by any means. Yea you have to download an app to use the service-- but you are going to have some compromises with a budget plan like this. Its $10.99 a month for 500 voice minutes, unlimited texting, and 500mb data. Unlimited everything for $19.99 (4G LTE throttled after 1gb I think).

As far as your account- I don't think you can cancel any phone plans online right after you open them, can you? Seems standard to have to call. Their phone support is actually decent. I sound like a freedompop homer, not trying to be but its really not that bad.

And to have some old hardware running lollipop on service this cheap, pretty amazing IMO
[Sprint LG Optimus G] kz6fittycent:
Great Work!

ROM is working as expected. Haven't had any real issues as yet. I will continue to test-drive and report back. The only "issue" I have been experiencing is Sprint VVM not working. Not sure why, but it was working with KK. I can't even get Youmail to work either. Kind of weird. It's not a show stopper by any means but I thought I'd report everything I was finding.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Strizay:
I strongly suggest avoiding freedompop. They are true idiots. I did call as the site suggested to cancel my subscription. Why I couldn't just cancel from the site and was forced to make the call is definitely a bad sign. Anyway, I did call and none of the voice prompts led me to mobile service for freedom pop. There was nothing at all to get me to a human representative also. I tried 3 times to see if choosing different prompts would get me to the place I need to be to cancel, but it failed all 3 times.

I then sent an email on Feb. 14th requesting to cancel my service beginning on the 10th and that I did not want to be billed for a service I never used. Guess what, I checked the account today and those idiots with drew the money from my account. I just sent another colored email, maybe this time someone there will be able to read it.

Currently, only used, inactive Sprint devices can come to Ting. Is there way I can flash it or something like that?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Matty77:

[Sprint LG Optimus G] kz6fittycent:
I'm on Ting... With the OG. I know they're having activation issues right now. Some kind of legislation...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Strizay:
Long story short, I bought a phone with a bad meid and then flashed it to Pageplus which is Verizon. So I flashed a Sprint phone to Verizon. Pageplus no longer supports my LS970 since it's from Sprint, and now I'm stuck without service and I don't know what to do next. I don't know if I have to flash it to Ting or what. I don't even know if it's possible to do that.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Matty77:
you don't flash it to Ting, you just put in your Sprint phone's MEID w/ Ting and they'll activate it...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Strizay:
If it was that easy, I would have done it days ago. I tried that but it says my phone is still active on Sprint. This is the exact error message I get:

That device can't come to Ting right now.

Currently, only used, inactive Sprint devices can come to Ting.

So I need to do something to get it off Sprint. I can't call them, I'm not the original owner and I think it may have a bad esn
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Matty77:
yeah, I think you got screwed, the Sprint's contract isn't up...

You can buy a new phone, or call Sprint & plead with them, maybe they'll cut you a deal.

need to use something like this before you buy

[Sprint LG Optimus G] Strizay:
too bad pageplus decided to not support Sprint phones, I was with them for the longest time. There has to be another option out there somewhere. I really like this phone. I know I could upgrade and get a better one, but I'd rather not.

How do I create a new screen to the left of the home screen?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] the_details:
I haven't found a way to do it in one step, but if you create one to the right, you can drag it to the left. After you create the screen (I dragged an icon to the right and it did this automagically), if you long press on some blank space or hit menu, the "wallpaper/widgets/etc" menu slides up from the bottom. Long press and drag that homescreen to wherever you want.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Strizay:
Just dragging a widget or icon didn't work, but the moving the home screen did. I created 3 screens to the right, and then moved the home screen over one like you suggested. Worked great, thank you for the help.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] turboedm:
This ROM is burning through the battery on my OG. Android OS is keeping my device awake for the whole time it's unplugged.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] the_details:
I found that changing the build.prop entry wifi.supplicant_scan_interval from 15 to 500 helped for me. Also, this rom seams to settle down on battery life after a couple of days, so after the first day or two I find it lasts a bit longer... Until you flash a new nightly.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Crossvxm:
Can't get any gapps to work. They will FC upon boot after installation.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dopy25:
Which GApps have you tried?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Crossvxm:
ALL of the PA 5.0.1 GAPPS (they currently have no 5.0.2 ones available).

Those are also about the only ones I find, other websites link to their XDA thread.

I also found that I'm not the only one experiencing the issue, but their thead had

no solution:

http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/104098-gapps-not-working-cm12-502-lollipop/

I would have assumed that perhaps it was an issue in the latest nightly, but as we can see, the OP in that thread posted it back in late January. I have tried installing the Gapps right after the rom, installing the rom > booting > installing GAPPS, and still no good.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dopy25:
Silly question, did you format all partitions? Go to advanced wipe and select cache, dalvik, data, and system. Do not do the factory reset option. You need to wipe/format the partition or it gives errors like this.

Also, I have never had a problem with PA GApps. I use the modular micro package, and yes they are 5.0.1 and you can ask in their thread why that is, but they will work on 5.0.2 as well because the only part that really makes a difference is the first 2, so it would essentially work on anything 5.0.X because that's how google makes their stuff. very small updates are after the second decimal place.

Also, my process is this,

FORMAT necessary partitions (stay away from formatting internal storage)

INSTALL ROM

INSTALL GApps

WIPE cache and dalvik cache AGAIN.

And that has never failed me.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Crossvxm:
:D With all the phones mentioned in my signature, do you really doubt my wiping capabilities? Lol yes I wiped everything, but every single Gapp FC's. I thought the "Pico" version which only has the basics like the Play store, Play services, Google frameworks, etc would make a difference but it didn't.

ONE THING I HAVE NOTICED is that I am using TWRP 2.8.3.0 (latest) and i see it says that the SE Linux is not being enforced. Also, since I have experience with this particular device in the past, I remember that the internal storage gains some problems when going from stock directly to a CM based rom due to the fact that both are in a sense layed out differently. Since I haven't touched this guy in a whole year (it had bricked one day and I gave up on it) and just yesterday I recovered him to stock, it may be related somehow?

I gave him the Framaroot treatment along with FreeGee from the Play Store, then used Flashify to flash the latest version of TWRP. None of the things mentioned from my last paragraph to here may be related, but maybe? :rolleyes:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dopy25:
I didn't mean to imply anything :P that's why I said it was a silly question, but you never know.

None of those SHOULD be related, but to be honest it may have something to do with TWRP. 2.8.3 is not the newest as far as I know. 2.8.5 is. and the newer nightlies might be built based off that information.

Try one of these here

http://dl.kevinjoa.me/recovery-geehrc/

I use the multi rom and have NO issues, but give the regular one a shot and it may make a difference. I can't imagine that if the gapps package flashed in recovery that recovery would be related to in ROM force closes. But it's possible.

Did you flash the ZVC rom? Or an earlier build for the ls970? engin95 has a ZVC build in one of the threads around here. Use the odexed version. That may have something to do with firmware? That could be an issue too, but I don't remember if these roms do a firmware update too. I moved on to the M8 and firmware matching is a must.

The only problem this device ever faced with storage is that it appears to be duplicated. Stock was /0 and aosp for some reason was /0/0 or something like that, but both contained the exact same files. That shouldn't be an issue.

I used to use stock and AOSP on the same device at the same time. BUT, stock can not be primary. Long story but it has to do with kernel. In fact, one of the ROMs around here has to say GEE in order to be primary and be able to use secondary installed roms. But I will not go off on MultiRom any longer.

Try the updated TWRP, might make a difference.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Crossvxm:
Don't worry I know the question must be asked as I've seen countless threads of people dirty flashing even when OP highlighted the MUST wipes :highfive:

I'll give a different recovery you mentioned a try.

As for stock, I restored ZVB via LGNPST and upated OTA to ZVC, then flashed a 4.2.2 MIUI based rom which for some reason booted once and then bootlooped on me after applying a theme. So I wiped there and flashed CM12's latest LS970 build and thats where I encountered the issue.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Crossvxm:
Used your suggested TWRP (the official TWRP website still does not have the latest) and I quickly noticed that the SE Linux warning was gone. Upon starting all over, I flashed the GAPPS and it worked perfectly! Thanks alot!
