Thanks for this ROM.

If I understood correctly , the new version of the ROM are often published . There is there a changelog available ?

thank you again
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
The changlog is built into the ROM in the about phone section....
[G3 Android Development] AlphaJ1:
Thanks for this ROM. I flashed the latest version (2/8/15) and seem to be having problems with the screen responsiveness after a few days.

Now I am stuck on a blank screen and am unable to turn the phone off unless i pull the battery. Any tips? I need to get to recovery mode and tried power+down but it took me to hard reset and prompted me to choose between yes (factory reset) and no. I have custom recovery installed but am not sure if choosing yes takes me to TWRP.

please help anyone.

thanks.

Edit: NVM, found my answer. Thanks everyone.
[G3 Android Development] skiiermike:
Please share the solution so anyone having the same issue will know.
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
Nobody else is having this issue...please do a full wipe and clean flash ....something is nor right with your phone....its not a ROM problem...
[G3 Android Development] AlphaJ1:
I simply booted to recovery using hardware buttons and reflashed the ROM from an earlier save.

I'll try a clean flash later. Thanks.

Edit: I'll just elaborate on screen responsiveness. My phone is on, but double tap to wake would not work. Hardware buttons would not work as well. Anyways, I've reflashed and seems to be fine for the time being. Thanks.
[G3 Android Development] churchrickshaw:
I know i've read this before, but i can't remember from which one of the Canadian threads, but is there a way to turn off darkui? Mainly the settings page and the dialer... I've tried a bunch of themes that's suppose to theme systemui and etc, but doesn't seem to theme settings or dialer
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
No, most themes will not work like that on validus because people theming from white to dark... we are dark to begin with so you will end up with dark on dark... if that makes sense...
[G3 Android Development] churchrickshaw:
So dark to white won't work either?
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
I honestly don't know... I'm not even using the theme engine at all at this point as its very buggy... a lot of themes don't theme properly etc because of the theme engine itself...

I also stated in the OP in HUGE RED FONT, that this thread isn't here to discuss themes and that CM still has a lot of bugs to work out... lol. Our ROM is themed the way we like it.... If you don't like it, there's many many others that have the boring eye killing white ui... lol..

Can i make this work on d855? Rom looks realy awesome
[G3 Android Development] igylan:
Yes, there is a version for d855. Go to their G+ community Ground Zero Roms, there you'll find the download page link for d855.

Is anyone else having trouble with signal drops? I get one about every 5 mins for about a min of no signal, any help would be greatly appreciated for a fix as this rom is amazing!
[G3 Android Development] ruk212:
ROM is pretty stable smooth and quick ': a few issues while running this ROM on my d885 32gb LG G3 3GIG ( CLEAN INSTALL ) when I press multi tasking it opens I choose an app then press multi tasking too switch back to pervious app and when I press the on screen key the multi tasking is unresponsive so I have too press the home button

Music player crashes and is stuck in notification draw and will not remove

Mobile network is slow on bootup

And occasionally drops out

Battery drain is pretty bad

Love the theme but the dialer theme for not match the teal theme of the phone even tho I prefer black to white ...personal opinion...

The dialer icon could use some HD work :)

Overall its a really nice ROM which would be my daily if all those issues were fixed I have faith in future updates and will keep this ROM in mind

P.s keep this teal theme that's in the setting its really nice I love it n thanks for your hard work :)
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
Cm navbar has bugs.... we cant fix that... I'm guessing you were talking about recent menu when you said multitasking? my music player doesn't crash.... my signal doesn't drop out, battery life is excellent (5-6 h SOT) with close to 24h use... and the dialer is themed perfectly to match the rest of the ROM, aside from anything that is hardcoded by google and cannot be themed..
[G3 Android Development] pyro224:
I get a random bug where screen becomes unresponsive after waking up so I cannot unlock the phone. Hardware buttons still work though. Have to pull the battery to reboot. Happens once every couple of days
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
Do a full wipe and clean flash... that has never happened to me ever... or anyone else that i know of?
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
New Build is up in the OP... (02/14/15) and baNKs gapps also updated yesterday ...If you experience issues on dirty flash, please do a full wipe and clean flash before reporting any issues..

The changelog is located in the about phone section in the ROM...

enjoy!!
[G3 Android Development] AlphaJ1:
Is anyone having trouble with double tap to wake on the new build? Did a clean flash.

Edit: NVM, seems to have been a minor glitch. Everything works great now. Thanks.
[G3 Android Development] tveith:
This is a really nice Rom, very smooth and fast! The only problems I am having after a day of use are:

1. Cellular network randomly disconnects every 5-10 minutes during regular use, and takes several minutes to connect upon boot up.

2. Wifi networks are not remembered / saved after reboot and must be joined again. Also, wifi is really wonky; I often need to try 5 or more times to connect as I get a message saying "the network is unavailable". One time, the wifi even turned off on its own and I had to reconnect.

Yes, I did a clean install, wiped everything. Hopefully network and wifi will become more stable in new builds.

Thanks again for this excellent rom. I love the dark theme and options!
[G3 Android Development] kisskool34:
I have the same problems.

But really thanks for this amazing work.
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
I wish we could help you guys but I don't have those issues at all...and neither do most users that I'm in contact with. I wouldn't even release these builds here if i didn't have working data or wifi... lol

WiFi and data have been solid on all builds since before Christmas. My data never drops out... my WiFi always remembers networks (work/home/friends places) after many reboots... It seems that certain people have the issues and others don't.... which makes no sense.... have you guys checked your apn settings and tried others? Where do you live? what carrier are you with??

Have you guys flashed back to stock kk lately and done a factory reset to reset modem and everything?? sometimes doing that will fix whatever has happened to your device to cause the issues...back everything up to a cloud or computer though, as it completely formats your sdcard's (internal & external) It will make your phone like new, but still rooted...

start fresh and i bet your issues will be gone....

Not sure what else to tell you when you don't provide a log, device/carrier/location info...
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
When you guys say you did a full wipe did you go to "advanced wipe" in TWRP and chose everything except "internal storage" and "usb otg"...? everything else should be checked off (including system) aside from those 2 things...

Also, are you guys on the latest TWRP recovery?? 2.8.3.0?
[G3 Android Development] tveith:
Hi there,

Yes, I did a full wipe / advanced wipe just as you mentioned. I was using TWRP 2.8.3.0 when I flashed your ROM but just upgraded to 2.8.5.0 today.

Currently, my cell network is Rogers and I reside in Toronto : Bayview Ave / Moore Ave area.

As an FYI, when I rebooted the phone after upgrading TWRP, the phone connected to the cell network immediately (good!) but the wifi sat in the left hand corner with a question mark. Then after two minutes, cell network disconnected, then reconnected. Went into wifi settings, my wifi network appears and indicates "Saved" but does not auto-connect. Tried to connect to my network repeatedly, each time it says "failed to connect to the network". Clicked "forget", then tried to reconnect, again says "failed to connect to the network". Tried over and over and over for three minutes. Turned off wifi twice, and after several more minutes, wifi finally connected. Really frustrating.

Let me know the best way to send a log file.
[G3 Android Development] dmeinder:
Hey guys, make sure you edit the build.prop to state your carriers name. By default the value is "unknown" for this rom.

Also edit country code to "CA"

This works on all custom roms I've tried.

Btw... To op...

Great rom, best I've tried. Only small bug is the navigation bar sometimes doesn't respond. Solution, I hit home button and go back.

Also recents doesn't respond sometimes either.

Not sure if this has been covered.... But just my 2 cents

Cheers!
[G3 Android Development] tveith:
Not sure if editing the build.prop file really makes a difference, but I changed the two fields and I'll monitor to see if the network remains more stable. Wifi is defintely a huge problem. Once the wifi is actually enabled (after several minute and many tries), it remains stable and connected. Just really frustrating that it doesn't automatically connect after Powering off or reboot.
[G3 Android Development] dmeinder:
I have also noticed some oddities with WiFi...mind you I've installed 777 kernel. It doesn't seem to auto connect when I go to a saved zone.
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
Like i said, For me, on rhe same device and same build, these issues don't exist...the other strange thing is i have a buddy here in Sask that's on the same build as well, and the same carrier, and he isn't having issues either...If you guys want to force issues ajd grab logs and pass them on feel free, (PM the dropbox or drive links to me)but i highly highly doubt its ROM related...we have the same devices and the same internal hardware...that's what makes me think its your apn settings...I wouldn't edit buildprop without making a backup first.. that's for sure...but if that does fix things for you guys, let me know...I think those fields are probably left empty because these d852 builds are a unified build in a way since all d852’s can use them....
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
I flashed 777jon and Furnace on the last build and had no issues either...Been trying to decide on a custom kernel to bud with, but honestly the CM kernel is giving me the best battery life...I had 6h 45m SOT on the last build with cm kernel. After flashing 777jon and furnace and trying multiple different settings i could only get 5h and a bit....
[G3 Android Development] dmeinder:
Good to know....I don't use any of the extra features of 777 anyway, and the OC'ing doesn't work. I'm going to dirty flash the ROM again to get cm kernel back...thanks.
[G3 Android Development] tveith:
I don't think it's fair to say that we are "forcing issues". I'm merely trying to explain what is happening on my phone, regardless of how perfect the ROM is working for you. As you said, you are not having the same problems so it would obviously be a waste of time for me to send log files. I'll continue to update as new builds are released and hope my wifi problems are eventually resolved.
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
By "forcing issues" i mean start catlog (or whatever logcat app you use) and force the issues as many times as possible so that the log catches the errors..like disconnect and re connect WiFi ....turn WiFi off and do some stuff while only lte is enabled...etc..sorry if you took that the wrong way...I'm just not sure what to fix for you guys if other people aren't having the same issues...makes me think its device secific...

Like i said before, your best bet would be to go and back up your phone, get back on stock kk 4.4.2 and do a factory reset in the rom...not in recovery....then clean flash validus again and see if the same problems exist...I say this because performing that factory reset will completely wipe your device and reset everything to factory....

I had to do it 2 or 3 times back in the very early stages of lollipop when i was having these issues you are having now...but like i said, I haven't had these issues since then...
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
If you want OC to work with 777jon or any custom kernel, you need to buy faux clock app ....its the best kernel app for the g3....we all use it...and all settings will stick and work....I've tried Trickster, Kernel Tweaker and set cpu and none work with the g3...
[G3 Android Development] igylan:
I was just wondering if the CM stock kernel used in this version of Validus will work on d855? D855 is using the Rin kernel and my only gripe on it is that it takes to long to charge (about 4 hrs., idle, turned on.) I'm thinking maybe extract it and flash it.
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
No it wont....
[G3 Android Development] JohnnyCanuck:
Thinking about trying out this ROM. One question though is I know a lot of Lollipop builds have had bluetooth stuttering issues (which would be a huge issue for me). Any issues with the current Validus build and BT?
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
All i use bluetooth for is my smart watch and suv stereo... and it works great for me on both...
[G3 Android Development] igylan:
Thanks!
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
OP has been updated.... New build is up (02/20/15)

changlog can be found in the About Phone section within the ROM.

Just a heads up, we have added in a clear symmetry kb option in place of the hideous material light kb... and also notification and settings custom headers.... If you flash pa gapps you will NOT have the keyboard options as we themed the aosp kb and not google.... Also, if you apply a cm12 theme, you will NOT see the other new header additions (in most cases) unless the theme doesn't support headers... To avoid both issues i recommend flashing the baNks gapps in the OP, and not using buggy CM theme engine/themes...lol

The ROM has also been tweaked and optimized more, and is now down to 250mb instead of 274mb so don't worry if you notice that the new zip is smaller...its a good thing... :)

flash away....

enjoy...
[G3 Android Development] terrapin4:
Fantastic work on this ROM. This is what the G3 experience should be like.
[G3 Android Development] Thanofski:
Wonder why there isn't a separate post for the D855 version of this Rom.

Seems like a great Rom with a capable developer so I see no reason keeping this as it is.
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
Because nobody on our team has a d855...If you want to start a thread and maintain it and answer questions you're more than welcome...Send me a hangout on google plus and i can give you the thread template... you can add me on there I'm "Phillip Voidz"

Does validus support layers?
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
No.
[G3 Android Development] pepezpz:
OK thanks for the answer
[G3 Android Development] dmeinder:
Everything is great on this ROM...except that I can't connect to WiFi networks some times. Don't know if this has been fixed in the new build...but just thought I'd mention to see if there is a work around...cheers!
[G3 Android Development] gamesz2:
Thanks for this ROM

I Like the clock on the left side of the statusbar and the welcome text

Great rom !
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
I connect to wifi fine everywhere that i have tried...It also reconnects to my previously used networks on a daily basis....I wish i could explain why some people are having that issue and most aren't....lol.... But i know quite a few others with the same device that don't have the "bug"....So we aren't really sure how to fix it when it isn't broken for most people...:confused:

Lots more goodies are coming in the next official....I don't want to mention feature additions yet as we are in testing and some things might not make the cut (yet)....but its gonna be a nice update by this weekend....:cyclops:
[G3 Android Development] dmeinder:
Thanks for the input....I managed to connect by long pressing the ssid in the scan list, then I had a blank entry with no ssid and stated as connected. Reboot then it stated fine as well as re connected. For now, the benefits of this ROM far out way the only downfall....maybe things will be flawless inadvertantly In a future build. So I'm sticking with this one for sure....great job! Cheers!
[G3 Android Development] Thil3000:
Hey Aries, I'd like to make a build of your rom for the d852g, but dont know where to start. The lollipop rom for my device is out so i think it could be making thing easier..

Anyhow if you could help with that, or connect me with someone you could help me that would be great !
[G3 Android Development] kisskool34:
You can flash this rom on you D852g, just flash the D852 recovery on your phone
[G3 Android Development] Thil3000:
Yeah i know but i've to install the d852 twrp, and i'd like to have a full d852g rom/recovery (since i have the good baseband and kernel from LG)
[G3 Android Development] Banger242:
Just flashed this ROM and looks great so far. I flashed the lollipop modem from the latest Canadian update as well. Those that are having data issues maybe take a look at doing that. Cuzz posted it over in the Candy thread.

Thanks for the great rom. I just got it up and running but I do have a couple questions.

Is the lollipop modem built into the latest build or do I have to flashing separately?

Is there an easy way to install apps each time I update? I tried making a titanium update zip of the apps I wanted but it failed when I tried to install.

Thanks
[G3 Android Development] jclm73:

I can connect sometimes but often, it doesn't operate .....

Do you have an idea ?

[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
seriously? your asking how to use titanium backup in a ROM thread....? .. normally i wouldn't even answer that, but all you need to do is go into titanium and run a batch backup, then when you flash the new build, install only titanium from the playstore and run the batch restore function.... if you don't know how to do that, google or youtube it... this isn't a titanium backup thread...

No the 20c modem is not in this build yet... I'm sure it will get updated soon.... just grab the zip and flash it....

As for people having trouble with WiFi , I'm not sure what to tell you... my WiFi always connects and works fine...I use 4 different networks on a weekly basis and both my devices reconnect flawless when i get to work etc... You guys need to grab a log of whats happening on your devices when its not connecting, as most people do not have your issue... including myself.

The fact that it does connect, and works "sometimes" makes me think its the WiFi networks your using, more so than the ROM itself.....
[G3 Android Development] skiiermike:
Thanks for the response and please don't jump at the opportunity to be rude. If you reread my question I asked nothing about titanium backup. I asked if there was an easy way to reinstall because this is the first time a rom hasn't allowed me to install an update zip. It may be the phone but I'm not sure because I've never had the issue on my s3 prior to this.

Again a appreciate your answer and dedication to the rom.
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
This isn't the question and answer thread... one does exist..... And you did mention that titanium update zips aren't working... so i explained how to use titanium properly. Not being rude at all...

I don't ever use any type of backup as it causes issues... I clean install all apps through play on clean flashes.... its the only way to make sure everything is running as it should...
[G3 Android Development] buski:
Ariesdroid i flashed the newest modem and it works but when i go back to kk stock i have no signal.Can you get the old modem so i can switch back when i need to?i couldnt find it :S
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
I have no idea.... just do a full wipe, (system too) flash validus and don't flash the modem? The ROM has the kk modem built in still... not sure why you would lose signal.... do you not back up modem when you do nandroids?? I always do to avoid this issue...
[G3 Android Development] buski:
i tried clean flash and still no signal when i go back to stock since i applied new modem....no signal at all ,not just lose signal.

im having signal problem also with new modem.i didnt back up modem :( if someone could share pls.
[G3 Android Development] skiiermike:
I'm not having the signal loss that some are reporting however I am experiencing really slow charging. Anyone else?
[G3 Android Development] mapleleafz06:
I still have the same problem as with other CM12 roms for this phone, the phone screen is unresponsive after a phone call. i cant unlock my screen. its the wierdest thing, i can tap on the reboot menu when i hold the power button, but nothing else works. I can't slide to unlock or even tap on any of my notifications. This only happens after a phone call. ggrrr otherwise great rom
[G3 Android Development] gamesz2:
Still on this ROM on my lg d855 no problems at all .

I think it needs time to work beter i have the ROM now over 3 weeks and update every week!

Battery is good 59% with 2,5 screentime (YouTube facebook whatsapp most YouTube)

I like the features in this ROM i dont miss anything :)

Thanks and stay awesome haha
[G3 Android Development] Ariesdroid:
I can confirm this...I just tried restoring my old KK nandroid and my data is borked as well...Its not completly gone, but cuts in and out making it unusable...

I restored validus and data is working fine though.....If you track down the flashable kk modem let me know as id like to fix my stock nandroid...

How do you change that picture in the notification drawer? The one of the Forrest over taking the whole bar @ the top ?
