Coming from ZVC

I have read through this thread and a few others.

I am seeing that TOT to zve and then ota to zvg is the main option, but also seeing that unrooting and taking ota all the way up to zvg is an option.

I have never done a TOT and dont really know how to.

So, will it work if I just unroot and take ota all the way up to zvg?

If not, would anyone be able to help me through the process of using a TOT?

I am on Resurrection ROM ZVC

Baseband: M8974A-AAAANAZM-1.0.190034

Kernal: 3.4.0-CM+

awesome, yeah I had just found that thread and am halfway through the process.

Thanks for your reply!!!
[Sprint LG G2] jdr6382:
Just wanted to follow up here, this worked perfectly for me.

I did run into one bump afterwards though, stump would not root for me once I was on ZVG.

I got the error that it was patched and it failed.

I used the following method and it worked flawlessly:

Then just picked back up with the rest of the OP's process and ran AutoRec.

I'm now sitting on ZVG, rooted, custom recovery, and this fantastic ROM.

Thanks for putting this together and the help provided :D

guyz i need to confirm one thng ..can we add apn in this rom and select 3g manually???thx
[Sprint LG G2] blakeatl:
Been running into some serious lag over the past couple days. If I don't reboot or go into recents and clear out some programs, the phone slows to a crawl.
[Sprint LG G2] secret.animal:
I believe that has to do with the lollipop memory leak that is fixed in 5.1.1 that we don't have yet.
[Sprint LG G2] jst07:
I switched over to UltraPop from kitkat based Paranoid a few days ago and somewhere along the line I lost LTE. I know I remember seeing it at some point after doing the TOT to ZVE, but I can't remember for how long since I'm usually on wifi. Has anyone else had this problem? I tried restoring an early backup I took but it didnt work either. Should I try doing a TOT back to ZVE again and check along the process to see where it maybe quits working (or hope its fixed)?

My phone won't get any data connection unless I'm in a 3G only area or I manually set it to CDMA only in the Mobile Networks settings. Any help is appreciated!

Btw, Agimax, the ROM is fantastic. Taking me some getting used to since I've never used the stock LG software before and I've been on PA for all my phones as long as I can remember.
[Sprint LG G2] Agimax:
You might try starting over from ZVE making sure you have LTE first. You could also try Activating the phone option in settings, reboot, update your profile and see. You are the first to have this issue.

[Sprint LG G2] catbert77:
I have had this happen as well. Something "goofy" happens at some point when driving around and I'll have a stream of error messages about not being able to get a wireless data connection. Toggling airplane mode does not help. Doing what Agimax recommends (update PRL; update profile) gets it working again. Wish I knew what triggered it. Any way I can pull a log if it happens again?

Speaking of that, how can you tell on the phone if you are receiving SPARK network service?

Installing Xposed and the relevant module should fix this leak.

Actually, I didn't see that. :o However, it would be nice if Timely were integrated into the ROM. Whenever I touch on a clock (widget, app, whatever) it should launch the Clock functionality on the phone. If an alarm notification is on the status bar, I should be able to pull it down and go to it instead of manually launching the application.

---------- Post added at 11:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:49 AM ----------

I installed dirty. Also installed your extra packages. All seems good save for the Voicemail package; it force closes a bunch for me when entering the settings, but after doing the update function (in the app) it seems to heal itself.

Great job with the update.
[Sprint LG G2] Agimax:
I hope you are erasing system first before 'dirty' flashing and erasing cache. Since things are removed and permission/SELinux changes. It will be a clean way of dirty flashing.
[Sprint LG G2] jst07:
Do you happen to get messages that the phone process (don't recall the exact process name) has crashed? I get that from time to time. I did change my DPI via build.prop edits which caused a major problem with that, but now I'm just changing DPI per app with Xposed App Settings.

Good to know. I already have Xposed so I'll look this up (haven't noticed the leak yet).
[Sprint LG G2] Agimax:
Glad you got everything working!

Just to clarify and re-iterate for other users, Stump Root does NOT work for Lollipop and the ROOT link in the OP is for the '1-click' type root (which does work for Lollipop).
[Sprint LG G2] catbert77:
Yes. I "clean" dirty flashed per your instructions. Wiped system, cache, and dalvik cache (is that still used?) before installing.

---------- Post added at 02:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:08 PM ----------

I believe so, but it's only happened to me twice. No build.prop tweaks for me.
[Sprint LG G2] wi11ie:
Wi fi hotspot is still not working here. "Tethering or hotspot has been disconnected due to network problems.Please try again later..."

Appears I will have to go back to a crappy ROM until this is sorted out..

I really like this one though!

It actually worked until I updated my pri and profile then it quit..

Any ideas?

wi11ie
[Sprint LG G2] jst07:
Some updates to my issues:

Doing "Update Profile" in settings seemed to do the trick for LTE (also getting Spark too). So if anyone else has any connection troubles with data or receptions, I'd recommend doing that and Update PRLs. Should do the trick.

For my call and com.android.phone process crashing, that seems to happen every time I receive a call if I change the DPI across the board with build.prop or change it for System UI using Xposed. I changed the System UI back to default and that seems to be fixed. Does this ROM/LG use their own software for the calling, which has issues with different resolutions? I would like to change the System UI DPI since I like the smaller nav and status bar. I never had this problem with AOSP roms. It's not that big of a deal though if it's going to give me stability issues like mad.

Also, did a clean "dirty" (murky?) flash up to V1.2 while I was fixing this stuff and playing around with it and all seems good! Thanks Agimax for your work on this. The room is smooth as hell and I suspect the battery life will be fantastic when I stop putting my phone though the wringer doing backups/restores/flashing trying to troubleshoot.

is there is a way to get 2G 3G icon on this rom instead of a circular GSM ?

Aside from the no wifi tether is anyone having an issue with knock on working perfectly and knock off not working?
[Sprint LG G2] Agimax:
Knock off is working fine, use the top menu bar to tap off. It is based on home launcher and Google home launcher doesn't allow except bar. Feel free to install one that allows on main screen

Also, whenever wifi tether quits, I just update profile then reboot and it works again, must be network bug in ZVG
[Sprint LG G2] wi11ie:
I looked at the apn settings before and after prl and profile update.. Before, they allow dun after they all change and it has strange settings applied.. perhaps a screen shot is needed
[Sprint LG G2] Riley1524:
Tethering doesn't work for me still either. My devices will pick the signal up, but it has the "!" Beside the wifi icon. Bummer

Dear All,

I have an LS980 and it says that my Software Version is LS980ZVC. I am on 4.4.2. How do I get myself to Lollipop? All the Lollipop ROMs say that I have to be on stock lollipop first. And there is also this ZVC, ZVG thing.
[Sprint LG G2] berz:
Flash OTA zip via stock recovery this will work only if u are completely on stock.

if u aren't TOT back to stock and flash update file via zip plenty of guides to do the same on sprint section of G2 its quite simple really.

On another note can someone tell me if the stock based roms for sprint have any custom kernels yet for LP ?
[Sprint LG G2] creepin:
I dont think that any developer still have released any LP kernel for stock ZVG Rom (LS980) I am also unable to find it
[Sprint LG G2] kahafeez:
Thank [MENTION=3040540]berz[/MENTION] whats TOT? OTA is over the air, that I know

Tethering Widget from amc64 works for me...O but you want wifi?
[Sprint LG G2] creepin:
But remember one thing if you are not on sprint and using any other network your sim will not be detected if you flash through TOT because by doing this your phone will go to the factory settings then you have to manually unlock your phone
[Sprint LG G2] Agimax:
Are you on Sprint Or using another carrier?
[Sprint LG G2] mikesal57:
Awesome rom...finally got working....too bad I'm late for the G2 because there's only 2 really active developments for it, this one and cyanogenmod

Anyway...I have 2 issues...I used the OP Voicemail App and I keep getting a update notice and when I download ..I get a "failure"

Also , when waking up phone , the screen freezes a few seconds before its operable..any clue?

Any suggestions?

[Sprint LG G2] Riley1524:
I'm on sprint.
[Sprint LG G2] Agimax:
Unfortunately i hate the voicemail app and don't use it (i prefer googlevoice mail - and Voice2Text is free not pay like SprintVM). I believe other users had said their VM had updated and took care of issues, but you'll have to search the thread. Hopeful when you took the KK OTA to Lollipop update you did a factory reset (i had issues when i first took the update before i reset). If you did, then great, just let the ROM settle in for 2-3 days and report back any issues.

My wish is always to be on stock firmware and stay fine with a perfect device BUT i can't stay there because my phone is not factory SIM unlocked (unfortunatly) and i need it SIM unlock and use it with GPRS data because i live in Pak and use it with non US SIM (Non Sprint)

[Sprint LG G2] wi11ie:
In the original profile there are a bunch of carriers listed.. and tethering WILL work until it updates..

After the update all the other carriers are gone and tethering no longer is working it just has Sprint and it refuses to allow me to edit the apn..

Obviously it is an evil scheme to part me of more of my cash..

Perhaps it needs to have the one from my ZVE placed inside it and overwrite the one that I get after updating..

Don't know how or if it can be done but my ZVE works always..

[Sprint LG G2] Agimax:
I have to turn on Wi-Fi tethering, then reboot and turn on tethering again every time before tethering works properly. I'm still looking into it, but I still believe stock ZVG has issues.
[Sprint LG G2] Agimax:
This is not the rom issue. Update your profile, clear your Google play store data, and reboot. Then Make sure you have your account setup under Google play store.

You should have factory reset after taking the ZVG factory update, and wiped data during UltraPOP installation to remove old data fragments and settings.
[Sprint LG G2] Agimax:
Please all users shouldn't be reporting issues with the ROM if they are making any modifications to carriers, dpi, using exposed, modded apn's, etc. I do not have an unlocked phone, I only use Sprint, I can't test for issues caused by various things done by users. Trying to track down issues that are caused by other mods and tweaks wastes my time.

Also, If something doesn't work on Sprint Stock ZVG, it won't work on UltraROM -its base is of course ZVG.

Note that there are separate threads for carrier unlocking, hacking tethering, etc. If they are having issues in those threads working for ZVG, this ROM won't magically fix them unless I or others find and fix the issues.

Of course let this ROM settle in for 3 days before reporting sluggishness, battery drain, slow behavior. This ROM flies and is very responsive. I run this exact v1.2 on my dev phone. I don't install Facebook, Twitter and all the other bloated crap that slows phones down and eats battery.

This is one of the fastest, slimmest stock ROMs I've run on my G2. I've been on the scene since i hacked on my first HTC Hero. I have yet to get time to start on v1.3 but I hope to tackle soon.

[MENTION=2158849]Agimax[/MENTION] Thank you for your work brother....You are the only one who has created a usable ROM for LS980 based on stock....TYVM
[Sprint LG G2] eggdashure:
Agimax, thanks for your work on this! Stock LP was atrocious for me...usually only 250 to 300MB of free RAM, closer to 800MB on your ROM. :good:

I had one quick question, I'd like to install the XCam driver for 4K and 120FPS video. In the XCam thread, it says to ask about which driver we are supposed to use:

If you are currently using a rom that has the advanced driver (ask in your rom's thread, not here) you will choose the appropriate G2 Advanced version.

I'm assuming since we have the bumped 60FPS option that we are using the advanced driver? And I would choose "for G2 Advanced LP"?

XCam LG - for G2 Stock KK

XCam LG - for G2 Stock LP

XCam LG - for G2 Advanced KK

XCam LG - for G2 Advanced LP

XCam LG - for G2 UHD KK

Thanks again!

[Sprint LG G2] zach_95:
I know maybe some of you have seen it but the dorimanx kernel have supported ls980. Some people have reported problems detecting network (but then again that's always been there, especially the ones not using Sprint). Just wanna mention it to you [MENTION=2158849]Agimax[/MENTION] since it would be an awesome feature for the rom. Keep up your excellent work! :D

Yes, second time same as first, third time works. Not sure what was giving issues. I do know that back in the day, a developer had the kernel under volted a bit which gave some issues and others no problems.
[Sprint LG G2] catbert77:
I also got the bootlooping. Lots of errors about not being able to open the GPU (can't remember the exact errors being displayed.)

I was running TWRP 2.8.60, which is the last "official" one on the TWRP website. Flashing with 2.8.6.3 from here:

Has anyone else had pc driver problems with this rom. Plug in on stock lollipop and comes up G2. Plug in on this rom and This device not recognized. Also had dorimanx kernel installed.
[Sprint LG G2] Agimax:
When i have time i will put the Stock LG launcher in a separate package to flash. I'm considering making an Ultra version with the stock launcher, but i like how snappy the overall ROM is with the Google Launcher.

I have been testing and following the DorimanX Kernel progress. Unfortunately the Kernel in it's current state is not yet stable and also causes issues with the UltraPop ROM (Carrier folder gets deleted and also changes the carrier information to unknown or chameleon -which removes the tethering ability of the ROM, and makes the Activation FC. I may be able to fix this with removing the Chameleon parts of the ROM and forcing the build.prop and other files to use SPRINT as the carrier, but then no other carrier would be supported.

UPDATE: I have worked with DorimanX for fixing the LS980 version and it is working flawlessly with ZVG now from version his Kernel V4.2.2 and up!

Any issues you have using DorimanX kernel, please use his thread.

Thank you for testing this and the update. I'll have to give it another shot. When I was using it previously I got the carrier issues and then after about 1-2 days it would get super unstable.
