New build is available.

I have added all LG Optimus G devices to updater-script so now you can install PAC by TWRP, like geehrc roms, without editing any files :D

And also LiveDisplay is working fine on newest build

Well, it's not that easy without having the actual device, but it'd help quite a bit if you could upload a system dump as well as the boot.img ;)
[LG Optimus G Pro] JoseVigil:
Hi laufersteppenwolf,

Congratulations for your achievements and career, amazing.

I am hereby sharing two link resoruces to download what you have asked for, system.html containing the system.img and boot.html containing boot.img. Please let me know if you have problems downloading.

I understand the side effects of not having the cellphone by your side, hope we can mitigate it with the image files you are asking. As extended solution I can open a vnc session or whatever remote tool you can consider.

Thanks so much for the answer and support.

Best,

Jose
[LG Optimus G Pro] laufersteppenwolf:
I am DL'ing the files now, but please use another hoster, as 4shared is not allowed on XDA ;)
[LG Optimus G Pro] JoseVigil:
Hi laufersteppenwolf,

Thanks for clarifying, I was not aware 4shared was not allowed. I am changing the hosting and updating the link.

Cheers,

Jose
[LG Optimus G Pro] laufersteppenwolf:
Alright, what I have done so far is I have unpacked the boot image and the ramdisk, edited the ramdisk so it shoud execute /system/bin/reboot when the phone boots because of the charger. Then I repacked both and signed the boot.img again so the bootloader would accept it.

The result, however, is a bootloop. I am just not yet sure whether it is caused by a "false alarm" (the ramdisk always thinking the phone is being booted because of a plugged in charger) or caused by either the bootloader or other low-level security checks. But I also doubt that, as the bootloader seems to accept the repacked image (doesn't show the security error screen).

But I currently do not have any logs, which is why all this is wild guessing. So the highest priority now is to get some proper logs so I know what's going on ;)
[LG Optimus G Pro] JoseVigil:
Hi Wolf,

Great advance! Keep the great work up :).

I have made some modifications on the original post. Yes you are right, the bootloader friendly accepts the original image and we have figured out the security error. We have found on our end that you need to edit the default.prop file (located at /bootimg/initrd) and set ro.secure to value 0. I also added the files to the post (yet to change the server origin on the boot.image though), added the kdz image to unbrick. Also appended the new forum for the phone.

I appreciate that you have favored to create the forum for the G Pro Lite D680 Android Development. Its great that we can help the community with our achievements.

Best,

Jose
[LG Optimus G Pro] laufersteppenwolf:
ro.secure doesn't trigger the security checks, this prop is only for other things like adb on early boot, enabling adb remount, adb as root by default,...

I also set ro.secure to 0 in the builds I sent you, so that's not the cause of the issue ;)
[LG Optimus G Pro] laufersteppenwolf:
[MENTION=4135037]JoseVigil[/MENTION]

I have some pretty good news :D The phone now does exactly what you want it to do, as soon as you plug in the charger, the phone boots into offline charging mode, but then directly reboots again into the normal system.

The reboot is not that nice, but it's by far the easiest, as well as safest, way to do it.

Turns out, LG did a pretty sloppy job, giving me adb access to the device when in offline charging mode, giving me the chance to read which process is running and patching the binary to run my hack before actually executing the binary. And that's it. A few lines of bash code and you're good to go :D

Now my question, do you want me to write a tiny script to do all the work patching the system, or shall I just explain what to do?
[LG Optimus G Pro] JoseVigil:
You are the man Wolf!

Its great that you have been able to find a workaround.

Yes, ideally both. I would appreciate if you can write the script so we can run it on our rooted phones pragmatically and a brief description of what it does (comprehensive from reading the script too) with implementation steps to reproduce too.

With the script I will do the proper test on my end and provide you feedback in case we have an issue. I will place the donation the coming week early on right after the test, I will be pleased that you get your reaward :).

Once that, I think It would be pertinent though that we can expose how far we have reached with our research. If you agree, we can set the ground for someone (either me or you or anyone) to get a bootable customized boot image and unlock the door for CM.

I would love to see this running on CM. But I also know we have to be realistic, as you mentioned, this could be a hell of a work to have a working custom recovery, the device tree and blobs with kernel (almost XDA University I have not been able to deal with too).

It has been a lot of fun and a pleasure to know you and interact with you. I hope this is our first experience.

Thanks very much for the great work.

Best,

Jose
[LG Optimus G Pro] laufersteppenwolf:
Alright, in the attachment I have uploaded the script, including all needed files in order to execute it. The script will also tell you what it's about to do before doing it, so in case you run into issues, you know where to look into ;)

So, what the installer script is going to do:

It will first of all push a script temporarily to the internal sdcard, then it will back up /system/bin/rtcd to /system/bin/rtcd_original, as we need to execute it later again. Next it will copy the script over from the sdcard to /system/bin/rtcd, replacing the original binary (and setting the correct permissions to both modified files). As the last step it will delete the temp file from the sdcard again.

That's all the installer script does.

The actual "magic" is inside the script being pushed to /system. It gets executed before starting chargemon and reads out the devices boot mode. If the boot mode is charger, it executes /system/bin/reboot. Otherwise it executes the original binary in /system/bin/rtcd_original.

And that's about it :D As simple as it could only be :D

Regarding further development, up until now, every device I own received a werewolf kernel, and I'm not planning on making an exception for this phone ;) :p

I will definitely keep on looking into it, though it will not be as high on my priorities list as this workaround was ;)

I will most likely open a new thread in the next couple of days, stating my findings regarding the phone/boot image/bootloader.

[Sprint LG G3] IamFlynn:
I've noticed that my screen flickers on AOSP roms such as Bliss POP and CM12. That is the reason why I am on stock rooted ZV6.

I am wondering why it flickers. When I say flicker, It doesn't flicker really bad as in a tv screen on a channel that doesn't work but flicker as in goes from low to high (just barely noticeable) and it is annoying and makes me worry about my phone.

Is my phone defective? Or is this a known issue on AOSP roms?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XDADoog:
Hi, after looking on google and the xda forum I didn´t find a similar question to my problem.

I am on 4.4.4, currently rooted and bootloader unlocked, and I am receiving the OTA update. The first time I tried to update, I got an error because I was on a custom recovery; installed stock recovery and tried again (downloading again OTA). This second time the progress bar started moving and suddenly the phone rebooted to normal and said that something happened and the phone was not updated.

My question is: do I need to be completely stock, even withouht root, to update? I mean, I can´t find a post that says the requirement to update to Lollipop in specific (non english speaker here, sorry).
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Leandro_Irion:
Hi there! I'm from Brasil. Owner of a Moto G music edition XT1033. I had the same problem with my phone here. Except that I did not use any custom recovery. I think that when I rooted my phone, the proccess I followed has changed the recovery in some way. Even after removing the root access by the option on SuperSU I was unable to install the OTA. I think that if you flash only the recovery of an stock ROM, you might receive the update via OTA. But the solution I used was to flash the entire stock 4.4.4 ROM. After the flashing process I received the OTA again and using 5.0.2 since then... And loving It! :)

I hope this reply helps you in any way!

Good luck!

I have a Z2 in service. When I tried it with wet fingers it didn't recognized my fingers and recognized water as finger. I wanna know that if it's a software in the Acro S, then I can make a Z2 to support wet finger tracking
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hitman-xda:
Its obviously not the software buddy. The screen/display of every water resistant phone is made such that they can work with just little watery fingers. If your phones screen contains water droplets it'll probably detect it as a touch due to high sensitive screen. Every water resistant phone does the same including Samsung s5, xperia z/z1/z2/z3, xperia acro s/acro hd, xperia go and so on.

Hope it would be helpful for you.

Kazam Thunder Q4.5 TWRP?

Hi, I recently got a Kazam thunder q4.5, i was wondering if anyone could help me in the process of rooting and installing TWRP on it, if available, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
[Kazam Thunder Q4.5] matt4321:
use kingo root, we only have CWM for this device
[Kazam Thunder Q4.5] mmonaghan34:
What are the main differences between TWRP & CWM? And what are the chances of kingo root bricking my phone? Would i be better using Framaroot?
[Kazam Thunder Q4.5] matt4321:
TWRP is a bit more up to date and functional but CWM has always been good, reliable and has the needed functions. You could try framaroot, no idea if any of the exploits will work but kingoroot worked for me and realistically it won't brick but technically there is always a slight risk
[Kazam Thunder Q4.5] mmonaghan34:
If I were to manually port TWRP to mine, how would i go about installing it? On stock rom, unrooted with stock recovery.
[Kazam Thunder Q4.5] matt4321:
Well I looked into TWRP and gave up because there isn't much space for the recovery image. Because CWM is less functional and simpler it is less in size and fits.

Having said that, I could be wrong, to install it you'd need MTK Droid Root & Tools. Do have a go, we need some dev love on the Kazam Thunder q4.5
[Kazam Thunder Q4.5] mmonaghan34:
By not much space, how large is the recovery partition? I've been unable to locate it, but that may be just because i don't have root :/
[Kazam Thunder Q4.5] matt4321:
I'll have a look tomorrow, it's been a few months since I messed with it. The recovery doesn't have its own partition, it's thrown in somewhere weird. It's about 7mb if I remember correctly
[Kazam Thunder Q4.5] mmonaghan34:
I know this is kinda off topic, but I ran CF Bench on this device, and its more powerful than a galaxy s3 or htc one ^.^

If it helps, here are it's permissions used:

android.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS

android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
[Kazam Thunder Q4.5] mmonaghan34:
Firstly, its been ages since this post, secondly, what ROM's source code did you use for compiling CWM for this device? I can't find cyanogenmod or omnirom for it and need atleast one to port TWRP

Thanks
[Kazam Thunder Q4.5] matt4321:
I used MTK Droid Root & Tools, it had a method to pull the stock recovery, patch the boot and replace it with CWM
[Kazam Thunder Q4.5] mmonaghan34:
Well, turns out that TWRP has been ported to this by Dees_Troy already... Downloads/whatever on the teamwin site here: http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp2/287
[Kazam Thunder Q4.5] matt4321:
I just saw this, I'm astounded. This device is so obscure yet it got official TWRP
[Kazam Thunder Q4.5] mmonaghan34:
Well, I was talking to Dees_Troy on irc yesterday about it, found out he had one, went back on irc today and he sent me a link there. Sadly, no fastboot support on this device, he says its something to do with the kernel.
[Kazam Thunder Q4.5] matt4321:
I think it's because of the really weird MTK layout with partitions

Hi!

It is very nice to see that you are porting CM12 to kazam.

I have kazam thunder 2 5.0, with similar specs to q4.5 but with larger screen 5" and the cam being 13 Mp.

Do u think it will be possible to use it on my device (it is also a MT6582)?

Good job.

Cheers
[Kazam Thunder Q4.5] matt4321:
No it won't be. ROMs are always device specific. Even if they're really close it won't work, don't flash anything designed for one device in another.
[Kazam Thunder Q4.5] drumandbassfreak:
Anyone having the stock ROM? I flashed recovery and my back camera stopped being recongized, only the front works. Help will be very very apreciated
[Kazam Thunder Q4.5] mmonaghan34:
So, I managed to get into the GUI for that userroot app, turns out that it might be an mtk provided rooting method built into the device, I haven't tested it yet, but a screenshot of what I saw when I managed to get into its GUI is below.

For those who are interested, its an mtk provided app, which makes it more peculiar as to why it is there, that much I can tell from its package name: com.mtk.user2root

It seems that this was accidentally included in the release version if the stock rom, though kazam might just not have been aware of it, like I said, I cannot confirm as to whether or not this works as a rooting method, but if requested I'll post how I got into the gui so you guys can test it yourself

Hye guys, I've searched everywhere looking for a way to actually change the speed dial number for voicemail.

Currently theres an entry as number 1 as Voicemail but there is no number attached to it. When I try and edit the number I'm not able to add an number, it has a drop down menu but it's blank and I cannot input a number into it.

I tried deleting the speed dial but then I'm unable to add a speed dial to number 1 as its reserved for voicemail...

I checked in Phone -> settings -> services and Voicemail and Text Messages has the right number for voicemail (121)

thats because it hardcoded into the OS. the only thing you can do is set another speed dail number to your voicemails number and use that but 1 is always for voicemail sorry man
