I was running the 04/21 build and dirty flashed the 04/25 build. Only problem was I "lost root" and just had to reflash SuperSU from TWRP. Other than that no problems and the 04/25 build actually seems much more responsive than the previous, at least in my experience.

I tried to use xposed super alpha but get bootloop. Is xposed not working on cm12.1
[Verizon LG G3] DarthDestroyeis:
Dirty flashing is the recommended way to do things per the CM team. Only need to clean flash if things start acting up
[Verizon LG G3] R2D2-AKU2:
Dirty flashing between 12.0 to 12.1 seems to be ts problem for everyone and has something to do with gapps. However, after you get up and running on 12.1 with a clean flash, dirty flashing is fine. I've been dirty flashing every 12.1 nightly without any issues.
[Verizon LG G3] ohlin5:
The super alpha xposed works perfectly, that's not whats causing your bootloop. Chances are you activated a module that's incompatible with 5.1.x. Go here to see what modules are compatible currently and which ones aren't. http://xdaforums.com/xposed/modules/discussion-xposed-modules-5-1-lolipop-t3075257

Oh, and as far as dirty flashing goes - the only "issue" I've had is when I just wipe cache and dalvik, flash the ROM zip and reboot for some reason I always lose the cm camera....not sure why this occurs, but to fix it I always just wipe cache, dalvik, and system, then flash the ROM zip, my supersu zip, any other zips I want, and finally gapps. Then I have zero issues.
[Verizon LG G3] ath.peppas:
I have the european version D855 and I am suffering from the over sharpening effect. IN the Cm12.1 does it happen the same?
[Verizon LG G3] dragonboydbboy:
What would y'all say is the best way to dirty flash? My method had been: wipe cache+dalvik, system. Install ROM, gapps.

Would it be better to simply wipe cache+dalvik and install the nightly? (No system wipe, no gapps reinstall, assuming that they carry over)
[Verizon LG G3] r3pwn:
Everyone has the "sharpening effect" -- you're not alone. And no, oversharpening has been removed from cm12 and cm12.1.
[Verizon LG G3] jco897j:
I had problems cause I dirty flashed from a January 5.0 build. But as long as you flash from the same version you're usually OK.

---------- Post added at 02:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:56 PM ----------

This was the issue I had. Went from 12 to 12.1 from a January build to the most recent build. Didn't realize it was a new version and dirty flashed. Finally back up and running though. Have the occasional LTE drop though.
[Verizon LG G3] DarthDestroyeis:
You just need to flash a 5.1 gapps package after Dirty flashing 5.1 over 5.0.2.... I went from 4/14 nightly cm 12 to 4/15 cm 12.1 build with no issues [emoji1]

Another one you might try that works well for me is the Lenovo camera here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2665714
[Verizon LG G3] TyWillems19:
Just wanted to say thank you so much for the nightlies and support on the G3!

Upgraded from 12.0 Nightlies to the now 12.1 Nightlies. After coming over to 12.1, I began having issues with Google Play Services, and YouTube crashes repetitively. After reading, it sounds like dirty flashing from 12.0 to 12.1 may cause issues, so I'm going to clean flash and reinstall the appropriate GAPPS.

Also, it seems as if when searching for an updated Nightly under the settings, it doesn't want to find any after 12.1. I'll see if this changes after a clean flash.
[Verizon LG G3] atan420:
I've been having an issue where if I have an sms notification the screen will keep turning itself back on and off over and over again to show me the notification. I've been using the app "Screen Notifications" to turn on the screen for select app notifications. Do we think that that app is the issue? I never had any issues before cm12.1. What do other people use to turn on the screen for notifications?
[Verizon LG G3] dragonboydbboy:
Don't think the in settings updater works, clean or dirty
[Verizon LG G3] ohlin5:
Yes, it definitely does not...not currently that is
[Verizon LG G3] Jake-11:
So does the clean flash resolve the Google Play services and YouTube crashes? That's what I'm having trouble with also...

---------- Post added at 03:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:52 PM ----------

So, any luck?
[Verizon LG G3] r3pwn:
(Replying to all)

The CyanogenMod Updater is not working for anybody, regardless of whether or not the user clean-flashed. This is not uncommon, however. It usually takes a while (I don't remember how long, but definitely not right away) for them to fix this, and it happens with every CM release. The ones I, personally, remember this happening for is CM10.1 to CM10.2, CM10.2 to CM11, CM11 to CM12, and now, CM12 to CM12.1.
[Verizon LG G3] lucemsequimur:
Do you guys have any problems with GPS? I've never been able to get it working with CM, I've also been having issues with losing the data connection but I figured out the fix for that. GPS works but is detecting in about a five mile radius. It isn't anywhere close to usable accuracy. The blue circle on maps is about 5 miles in radius, that's what I mean. What's the fix?
[Verizon LG G3] Noobla_Khan:
The fix for CM 12 was to install a stock based rom, get a fix on GPS, then install or restore back to CM, not sure if that works for CM 12.1 though. I may try it later.

[Verizon LG G3] Zlatty:
That seems like such a pain in the ass. Why not just use something like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.fastergps&hl=en

I had problems with GPS on the 4/26 build but the 4/27 fixed all the GPS issues. :cowboy:
[Verizon LG G3] Noobla_Khan:
This doesn't look like it will fix the GPS accuracy issues some people are having, looks like it just tries to address the speed of a GPS lock.

Will update to 4/27 and see if it fixes my issues.
[Verizon LG G3] ohlin5:
Fixing the GPS issues is very simple - I fixed 2 separate g3's by simply nandroiding cm12.1, full wipe and install skydragon 4.0.0, then get a good gps lock (I waited for like 15-16 sats). Then reboot to recovery, wipe everything but internal and external storage and restore the nandroid. Worked twice now for me on 12.1. Takes 15 minutes tops if you have a decent ext. SD for backup/restore
[Verizon LG G3] invisiblek:
Next time someone has a gps problem, someone should ping me. I have a potential fix, but obviously cannot test it with working gps.
[Verizon LG G3] ohlin5:
Will do, good sir! I'm up this morning and can't sleep so im actually half tempted to clean flash the latest nightly to try to re-replicate the issue. I'll keep you posted if I'm able to do that. :)

EDIT: Alright I'm stumped and give lol....I fully wiped and clean flashed the same nightly previously causing me issues, went through setup the exact same way as normal and GPS decided to work lol....idk. I'll be sure to PM you or something if I have the issue present itself again. Thanks!
[Verizon LG G3] mebezac:
Just flashed the 4/29 nightly and my phone wouldn't boot, had to go back to the 4/28 nightly.
[Verizon LG G3] jacksheadache:
Also unable to boot on 4/29. Unable to access recovery as well.
[Verizon LG G3] ohlin5:
Man, wish I had read here before doing the same haha :D Woulda saved me falling into the same hole ;) Thankfully I at least had a nandroid lol. :good:
[Verizon LG G3] mebezac:
I could access recovery, I'm on TWRP. Had to hold power and volume down until it gets to the LG recovery screen. Then choose factory reset, hit yes. Doesn't actually reset data, just takes you into TWRP.
[Verizon LG G3] jacksheadache:
Same. It's worked up until this point, and now when I attempt to boot into recovery, it does nothing. Normally I'll follow the instructions of powering the phone on with Power/Volume down until the LG logo appears, release them both, and then press and hold Power/Volume down again until it states the phone is booting into the recovery. This morning on the other hand, I've tried countless times getting no where. It never flashing the 'Entering recovery...' and then just returns me to a blank screen in the on state.

Edit. Oddly enough.. I ignored what I just said I've done in the past to enter recovery, and followed exactly what you said, just holding the power/vol down and the device boots the entire time without releasing.. and it worked just fine.

Edit edit. I 'dirty flashed' 4/28 and everything is as it should be.
[Verizon LG G3] r3pwn:
I was able to boot the 4/29 by flashing an older nightly, making a backup of the boot partition, flashing the 4/29 nightly, then restoring the boot backup.

EDIT: Still had GPS Issues, talked to [MENTION=2385005]invisiblek[/MENTION] and he fixed it. Hopefully everyone will have working gps when he pushes the change to CM. Also, he said he already fixed the bug with the 4/29 nightly.
[Verizon LG G3] planedoc:
Same here through CyanDelta app...
[Verizon LG G3] diedrick033:
did you also flash the resolution patch for the htc camera? my pictures are 4160x2340 and come to just under 3MB
[Verizon LG G3] Punchieo:
Is anybody else having a pretty rapid standby battery drain? I'm losing maybe 5% every 45 minutes. Has anybody else been experiencing this or have an idea for a fix? Tried multiple clean flashes to no avail.

I greenified every user app and blocked Google Play Services wakelocks.
[Verizon LG G3] dragonboydbboy:
Ya kinda on the same page. Noticing slightly significant battery drain as opposed to other Roms (that were 5.0 vs 5.1) but assuming this has to do with CM not focusing so much on battery issues so much as bugs, features, etc
[Verizon LG G3] Punchieo:
Yes I can see that. Contemplating hopping back on my 5.0.2 nandroid.
[Verizon LG G3] InvXXVII:
4/19 Build

Anyone got bricked (not sure if it's hard, but I sure do hope it's soft) on the 4/29 build?
[Verizon LG G3] xttapolatakettle:
I got bricked on 4/29. Had to disassemble the phone and short/ground one of the pins on the motherboard to force it into Qualcomm QDLoader 9008 mode. Then I used a tool to get back to restore download mode and KDZ'd back to stock. I can write up instructions if anybody needs them.

Edit: I wasn't able to get into the LG reset/recovery screen. I originally came from stock 23C, and for some reason lost download mode in the process, hence the disassembly.
[Verizon LG G3] Jake-11:
4-29 still broken, soft brick. Just pull battery then return to recovery.
[Verizon LG G3] xttapolatakettle:
I guess my biggest take home message from this is IF YOU'VE GOT A 12B ABOOT, YOU NEED A 12B LAF PARTITION, TOO! That would have saved me a big headache and let me into factory reset/recovery mode and download mode :(
[Verizon LG G3] r3pwn:
PurpleDL is based on the 12B laf, in case you don't have a copy lying around.
[Verizon LG G3] Noobla_Khan:
I'm still on the 4/25 12.1 build but I am getting excellent battery life, as good or better than I was getting on CM 12.
[Verizon LG G3] ohlin5:
Sooooo 4/30 build is almost up....who's gonna be the guinea pig?!?!? Lol ;)
[Verizon LG G3] UsedCrayons:
Mine got hosed on 4/29 nightly also. TWRP let me back in eventually, so I tried wiping system and cache before flashing. Someone definitely went to lunch on 4/29. I'm back to 4/28. Hesitant to jump on 4/30 until someone declares it functional.

Do have a couple of issues though that maybe someone can help with

1) I can't keep LTE connectivity to save my life. If I do the *228 activation or roaming update through verizon, when my SIM comes back, I get an LTE connection. As soon as I get on another tower, or get the next nightly I go back to 3G only. Am I missing something? I had the same problem with CM12.0 for a long time, and then it got fixed at some point either by my fumbling or their update. Would like to get it consistently working on 12.1.

2) My update checking doesn't work. I have to go to the CM download page and get the latest nightly. Again, this was working in 12.0, and now not in 12.1. With TWRP the update process is pretty smooth, so I wouldn't mind having the auto update check working. It doesn't crash or anything, it just says it didn't find any updates.

Sorry, just realized #2 had been answered earlier. disregard, number 1 still an issue!
[Verizon LG G3] ohlin5:
I had this same #1 issue one time too. Spent hours and hours trying fixes, and learned that you're no longer supposed to use the *228 ever with Sim card devices. The ONLY way I was able to fix was tot'ing fully back to stock (10B), then rerooting, unlocking, etc. Worked for me....YMMV of course, but unfortunately that's the only thing that worked for me.
[Verizon LG G3] psycho_asylum:
Flashing now...and it booted just fine (unlike 4/29)!
[Verizon LG G3] anticitizen:
I missed the answer myself, could you point me to it?
[Verizon LG G3] ohlin5:
Updater doesn't work currently. Manual flashing only for now until they fix it.
[Verizon LG G3] rjskalet:
Please let us know if it boots, I am downloading both 4/30 and 4/28 since i just wiped my phone for 4/29 and that was a no go
[Verizon LG G3] psycho_asylum:
4/30 appears to boot just fine. It is Optimizing apps currently. I didn't even get that far yesterday.
[Verizon LG G3] rjskalet:
As long as it boots thats all that matters for me right now haha, i just came from euphoria rom so i was obligated to wipe and 4/29 left me with a black screen

Edit: can confirm that 4/30 booted on a clean wipe!!
[Verizon LG G3] RRF12:
4/30 Runs fine no problems.
[Verizon LG G3] psycho_asylum:
I'm not so sure. I just got my first black screen of death since it was fixed before.

[Verizon LG G3] UsedCrayons:
I have to wonder what is causing the LTE issue, if its a ROM issue or just garbage from not clean flashing. I got my G3 on 10B and took OTA's all the way to 12C or whatever. I used a KDZ to get back to 10B then used philz to get to CM12. Then I went back to stock firmware and recovery, decided that sucked, and went to TWRP with CM12 again. 12.0 was running really well for me. I was really happy with it, battery life was great, super smooth. Every issue that slowly went away in 12.0 seems to be back with friends in 12.1. I didn't do a clean flash from 12.0 to 12.1, just applied the update and flashed a new gapps. Maybe that's it...
[Verizon LG G3] TyWillems19:
After a clean flash to 4/30, most issues coming from 12.0 are solved. Haven't encountered the things I was before.

EDIT:

Haven't had the LTE drop issues like the others, but it seems texts (and I'm assuming calls along with it) aren't coming through to me. Gonna read up and see if I can find a fix for myself and update this post if I do.

EDIT 2:

Messed around changing the preferred network from Global to LTE back to Global, and after restarting a few times it started to work. May have been the area I was testing before, because driving and at home now, everything seems to be working as usual.
[Verizon LG G3] bschmidy10:
GPS seems to not work at all... Any ideas?
[Verizon LG G3] ohlin5:
Invisiblek sounded like a commit was merged to fix this the other day, but if its still not working for you then the same tip that's been posted prolly a hundred times throughout the threads here - make a current nandroid. Flash skydragon (or any other stock based ROM) and complete setup. Install GPS status and toolbox app and get a good GPS lock (maybe 14-16 sats). Reboot to recovery and restore nandroid. Done it probably 10 times on various phones and worked every time.
[Verizon LG G3] bschmidy10:
Made nandroid and then wiped and installed skydragon... Got GPS locks... Now trying to restore nandroid... Stuck at boot screen of cm12.1... Wiped everything before restoring and wiped cache after...

It took forever! But it's working again. Thank you!
[Verizon LG G3] Reznor7:
I've searched around for an answer, but hopefully I can get a definitive one here. Is qi charging broken with 12.1? My charger appears to activate, and the phone says it's charging wirelessly, but the percentage never goes up.
[Verizon LG G3] r3pwn:
Have you tried the 4/30 nightly? This has the "proper" GPS fix in it (and it's the one that fixed my gps).
[Verizon LG G3] ohlin5:
Qi charging has never worked on the vs985 on aosp Roms.
[Verizon LG G3] Reznor7:
So, does qi work for other devices on 12.1?
[Verizon LG G3] r3pwn:
For devices that support it, yes.
[Verizon LG G3] SharpeMTBR:
Lol okay who's going to test the 5/1 build for me this morning... still sitting on 4/25...
[Verizon LG G3] RRF12:
5/01 build running good for me.
[Verizon LG G3] r3pwn:
5/1 build running pretty good. 4K video added, too (also has the gps fix from yesterday). Pretty spotty for me (the 4k video is, not the gps; the gps is working flawlessly), but if you get it working, it's consistent.
[Verizon LG G3] TyWillems19:
Happy Uno De Mayo everyone! Downloading 5/1 right now. I'm not busy, so I'll test as much as I can out right now and let everyone know what is/isn't working.

My process is a clean flash to 4/30 and now what will be a dirty flash to 5/1. I came from 12.0 a while ago, but with tons of errors. A clean flash really did the trick with virtually everything I was encountering before. Anyway, I'll get back in a bit. Download just finished :)

EDIT:

So it looks like these things are working for me:

- Normal Use (Facebook, Play Store, Apps, etc.)

- WiFi

- LTE

- Sound Recording

- Speakers

- Bluetooth

- Camera and Setting

- GPS (though I haven't tried to navigate, it found my exact location with GPS and LTE through Maps)

The only thing I found that seems to be something of a major issue is Video Recording.

I first tried 4K resolution, and everything seemed to be working fine, although the image seemed pixelated to me. During shooting a video, I was using the zoom function in and out and go a crash "Can't Connect to Camera." Couldn't connect back to the camera until I did a restart. I tried 1080p and it worked, as 4k did, until I began to zoom in and out during video. Becomes very laggy and if you don't allow it the time to catch up, it crashes. It will record on both 4k and 1080p and save videos, however.

That's all I've found though! Everything else seems to be working just fine, other than no updates in the update menu still. Hope this helps for users and development :)
[Verizon LG G3] r3pwn:
Wait, so 4K wasn't spotty at all? You didn't have to rotate your device like 5 times to get it working?
[Verizon LG G3] TyWillems19:
No, it worked right off the bat for me. Was set to 4k when I loaded the video recorder up and shot. I mean you do have to have the device horizontal to shoot video no matter what it seems in 12.1, other than that no.
[Verizon LG G3] Punchieo:
@ people with LTE issues... Usually what works for me is going to settings > Mobile Networks > Preferred Network Type and changing that to LTE. Also make sure the APN is set to Verizon Internet
[Verizon LG G3] dragon042:
I think Qi Charging is working... I'm running the 5/01 nightly...
[Verizon LG G3] Javayes:
Running the 4/30/15 nightly. For me, it says "Wireless charging" but it actually slowly keeps on discharging. It's been doing that since flashed CM12 back in Feb.
[Verizon LG G3] dragon042:
Good point. I think you're right. It detects that it's on a wireless charging mat, but does't actually charge. False alarm guys!

EDIT:

By the way, anyone having trouble connecting their Android Wear device to the 5/01 nightly? I can't seem to get my LG G Watch R to pair...

EDIT: nvm... I was able to get it to pair after a bunch of repairings.

EDIT2:

Would also like to report that Xposed SUPER ALPHA works great on 05/01 nightly:

After you flash the zip, the initial boot is going to take FOREVER, but once it completes, it will work.
[Verizon LG G3] Droid_JD:
So happy to see 4k as an option. Wonderful work guys!

But is anyone else unable to save 4k video? 1080 saves fine, just not 4k.
[Verizon LG G3] dragonboydbboy:
Yes, was just coming to post about that. It seems to work fine (even takes photos while video recording by tapping while recording) but doesn't save the 4K vid. 1080 works fine
