You can flash the extreme-debloated v10j straight from v10i if you want.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Marty_Since87:
Really? man I feel so noobish, lol. Thanks.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
Yes, different is just the " Extreme-Debloated " everything else is the same v10j update :p
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Marty_Since87:
So all I do is just restore my data after installing the zip?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
Yes,

- Wipe Cache and Dalvik

- flash Extreme-DeBloated

- flash SuperSU (root)

- Reboot system for first time (just to make sure everything when well including root)

- go back to TWRP and restore DATA only
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Marty_Since87:
No need to wipe system? cool. Thanks.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] KennebellGT:
I'm so confused, I haven't been following the forum in awhile, I'm still on rooted 10d. What update do I do? 10i or 10j and what are the differences? Has the modem been updated? Unlimited Tether blocked? Thanks my forum people's =)
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] bxcovi:
That's what I wanna know, can I go back to my back up of 10d and then go to 10j? I currently flashed the 10i zip.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] KennebellGT:
Are you on 10i? If so did you notice any differences?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] GameTheory.:
You can follow the 10J kdz guide listed in the first post under firmware update. That will get you guys to 10J no matter what you're on now. 10J patches stagefright. Just make a backup in twrp then save any photos or files in your internal sd. After updating to 10J you can go back in twrp and restore "data" from your backup to get settings and user apps back.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] KennebellGT:
So I should jump straight to 10j? Will I miss out on anything in 10i? Sorry if it's a stupid question. Also another one, all my files and everything is on internal SD because I think my external SD card is broken, it's never worked for me I need to send it back. Anyway if I back up "data" and update then restore "data" will I still have all my pictures and videos?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
DATA won't safe Pictures/Videos, bcuz picture and video are safe in internal or external sdcard that's depend on your settings, but take BIG NOTE if you restore using KDZ you must safe everything from Internal storage to External SDCard and YES you can restore Data after flashing the zip file just do Full System Reboot before restore data.

P.S. Data (Backup) = Installed Apps
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] bxcovi:
Yeah I don't have a computer so I can't do the kdz guide. I'm just gonna back it up to my 110D and flash the 10j
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
DON'T, you'll end up with bootloops, only update you can do then is the flashable v10i,
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] bxcovi:
Damn I'll wait for the fix then :( 10i I didn't notice nothing new.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] GameTheory.:
Any chance you can go to a family members or friends home and use their PC for a few minutes to update?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] KennebellGT:
Sweet thanks for saving my pictures and videos! I'll just flash from my 10d to 10j but first backing up my pictures and videos because I've never been able to save anything to my external SD card but that's an issue I'll bring up later. Thanks for your help, you too GT
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] AP2FTW:
Anybody else with this? Its been happening pretty much everyday for the last week...I restart the phone and it goes away. Also I was on i when it started so it wasn't the update that did it I don't think
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] jigglemoe:
Can someone tell me if i should not wait to get the 10J software update ? I am at 10i right now and i want to root im just not sure if i should root now and if i do i will loose root with the update to 10J and have to do a system recovery and then flash the recovery for the 10J update ??? Im a little confused ,, thanks I guess im asking will i loose root if i take the update from 10i to 10J
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Thediesel1972:
You will lose root but it roots back with no problems.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] jigglemoe:
So I have OTA 10i right now i can just do the one click method and install twrp no other special steps that i been reading here , Im assuming the extra steps are for those who have flashed up to 10i using the software that was made flashable threw this OP?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
Not on my side...haven't and hope not having any issue with v10j :P

Try restoring with KDZ and by the LG 5.1.1 one click root method still works with v10j or reflash.

No extra steps.. You can easly just flash v10j if you are on v10i OTA after rooting and flashing TWRP of course :D

[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Bobby Tables:
Polarization is independent of whether the glasses are prescription or not (and most sunglasses are non-polarized). The key is in which direction the lenses are polarized. Usually, for sunglasses, vertical polarization is used, as light reflecting off non-metallic surfaces tends to be polarized parallel to its direction (horizontally polarized for horizontal surfaces). This is why they cut glare. The degree of polarization depends on the angle at which the light hits.

In an LCD, each pixel is an electrically-controlled polarizer, and a single polarizing filter covers the entire panel. By varying the voltage to the pixel, its polarization direction can be altered from vertical, through diagonal, to horizontal, thus controlling how much of the backlight is let through. The sunglasses will interact with both the screen's built-in filter and the pixels as well. So, when the screen is vertical, the filter's also vertically polarized with respect to the glasses, and there's little interference. Turn the screen 90 degrees and all goes dark.

Some displays may be polarized at a 45 degree angle, which would darken them when viewed through vertically-polarized lenses, but not turn them completely black.

Some people have hacked LCD monitors by removing the polarizing filter; then you can't read the display unless you're wearing polarized glasses. Without the glasses, you'd just see a blank white rectangle.

In an AMOLED display, there is no backlight or polarizer; the pixels are individual LEDs that directly emit light. An AMOLED screen should never have problems with polarized lenses. So, a high-end Samsung would be a better bet if you need to read it in any direction through polarized sunglasses.

[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] amoblox:
I know that it's a bit early to say for sure, but I noticed that this came out just before the G4 and is an OS version behind the G4. Would it make sense for LG to update the Stylo to 5.1 or 5.2 later? It doesn't seem like the 5.0 memory leak is affecting this device, given the reports of battery life thus far. Just thinking out loud.

Also, why the 2900 mAh battery for T-Mobile instead of the 3000 mAh? The G4 is this way too for T-Mobile.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
hi guys just little question... i know [MENTION=4595889]fix-this![/MENTION] got softbrick and sorry to heard that, but i was wondering if [MENTION=4911249]Unjustified Dev[/MENTION] know something about if we are getting Custom Recovery for our phones? beside that thank you ya'll for your help.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
I'm not sure, there's no one to build and test recovery, the current one according to fix-this! has issues restoring and the pixel format is incorrect so the colors are off.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Damaged Gears:
Battery issues are inconsequential at best. You're losing 100mAh, which is like about 10 minutes of SoT at best. Besides, with Fast Dormancy enabled, I'm getting all day battery life with normal usage-(the general 5h+ SoT, it's at 65% at 7:30PM evening, 100% charge at 8:30AM with good amount of music and what not).

All in all, this is a good $300 midrange phone. Would've been helluva better deal at $250 (which I suspect will hit around this or less come Black Friday?). Other than the crappy sharpening for the text (it's fine at further lengths, but fairly close up, it's ugly) and with a bit of Hibernating, it's a damn good phone.

By the by, Service Menu and Fast Dormancy for G4 also works for G Stylo (T-Mobile): http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=61085174&postcount=6
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Bobby Tables:
I haven't tried Fast Dormancy, but thanks for the link for the Service Menu (277634#*#). I was wondering where it went; seems LG used to use 3845#*xxx# where xxx was the digits of the model number.

In my own usage, I get excellent battery life even without enabling Fast Dormancy. Are there any downsides to enabling it?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] amoblox:
I think it's time we get our own Sub.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] A Christian Guy:

[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] AP2FTW:
im also curious about the downsides of enabling this
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Damaged Gears:
Apparently, it throttles down your LTE to 3G/HSPA when data connection isn't in use. Not sure if T-Mob USA uses it or not. Try it, it can't hurt, right?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] mingkee:
I think I will bite a bullet to get this phone instead of G4 because of root (I need it to fix writing to memory card problem).

I did a test in the store and got Quadrant score 14xxx. 720p screen looks OK but Trad Chinese characters look a bit grainy.

I can live without auto brightness.

$290 is simply hard to beat.

BTW, G Stylo battery is same as G4 according to model number.

---------- Post added at 10:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:13 PM ----------

I read on G4 General forum that T-Mobile supports Fast Dormancy (I also enabled it on G3).
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] AP2FTW:
ah so that is a carrier dependent feature? i wonder if metropcs supports it...
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] mingkee:
Yes, it does, but it kills battery if you enabled it and your carrier does not support it.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] AP2FTW:
oh really? well thanks for that info ....seems easier/safer to just turn the data off if i really want to save the battery
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Muteki Chojin:
I have been looking into the stylo for metro and 1 thing is bugging me....the expandable storage. Im seeing a million different things between tmobile and metro. On both carrier websites it says 32gb. But on most reviews and earlier screen shots from tmobile says 128gb or up to 2TB like the g3. Have you tried putting any sd card about 32gb on it. I would love to hear some feedback on that from anyone. Thanks.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
I'm using and been using a 64gb Ultra SDXC without a issue since day 1, both websites indeed says about up to 32gb but i iguess is just miss info,
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Bobby Tables:
I'm also using a 64 GB card (Samsung EVO) without any problems.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] KennebellGT:
Thinking about pulling the trigger and buying the stylo from MetroPCS. My only concern is a safe root and being able to tether using root WiFi tether or what ever would work for a tether Hotspot workaround because I'm on the unlimited plan and they don't give us a Hotspot feature in the plan. I currently have an Optimus f6 I use WiFi tether root then use 3c toolbox to kill system/bin/Hostapd to get my phone to tether. I do have a feeling this phone will definitely take off once the android experts get ahold of it.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
i'm using Wifi Tether Router and at first didn't work (had the G2 and worked) but after a little help from the Dev. of the App is working like a charm.... i also have another way to do unlimited Tether and is having of course an IPv4 + dun APN and changing tether_dun_required = 0 .....

there is a way around when using Lollipop to change that and requieres using a Script and Script Manager to get it to work.

i'm using T-mobile by the way....

P.S. if you are using WiFi Tether Router and misspell by mistake i can give you the Configuration.

[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Riku Azhurlar:
Reason it wasn't released was the light hal. His custom one was bugged to where the device was nearly unusable. What essentially happened was once the device locked for any reason it never awoke without a hard reset. And because we were busy we couldn't make a build minus liblight

CM12.1 so buttery smooth. Look at how little RAM is used vs original LG stock. I have 1.4GB free of ram, and only a few background services running. II installed the 7-14 build this morning. Can't wait for the video/GPS fixes. I wouldn't have a need for the Moto X or a $550 Nexus 6, cause it will be on the Stylo soon.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
Back to light HAL could someone plug in their device for adb and turn off the screen then run these commands from adb shell

# This should make the LED blink for missed notification

echo 3 > /sys/class/leds/red/pattern_id

# To turn it off

echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/red/pattern_id
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] mrbox23:
I don't have a computer for adb, however I entered this command into terminal on stock ROM 5.1.1 10d then turned the screen off. The led came on solid for 3 seconds with screen off then turned off. It did not blink.

sleep 5; echo 3 > /sys/class/leds/red/pattern_id; sleep 3; echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/red/pattern_id

Maybe that helps? The screen was off, no blinking led it stayed on steady for the three seconds...

EDIT

This command will blink the led...

echo 10 > /sys/class/leds/red/brightness

It's not the regular blink pattern for a missed notification though and other values like 6 and 8 work as well.

That might be how the blink is timed with those values?

The max is 255(got that using 'cat /sys/class/leds/red/max_brightness')

echo 255 >/sys/class/leds/red/brightness

Will keep it on steady, 254 turned off offer a few seconds, did not blink though with 254.

I did the same thing with the terminal and using sleep command to buy me time to turn screen off..
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] dgk823:
I installed the CM 7-14 build last night. So if I can run commands on that, I will also contribute. If you all want a flawless CyanogenMod on this device, please help Unjustified Dev, since he doesn't own the actual device.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] mrbox23:
Edit

echo 500 >/sys/class/leds/red/timed

Will turn it on for the correct interval, but only once does not blink. That's as close as I could get, hope it helps..
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
It won't work on cm due to the code being removed from the kernel during testing.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
Try 27 this is for missed notification once which might be the standard blink. It also sets it to 500 on it's own. It's also the only pattern that the kernel tells to repeat.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] mrbox23:
Echo 27 to which one? I'll try them all and report back soon
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
pattern_id
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] mrbox23:
27 to timed blinked once quickly

27 to brightness repeated same blink as timed
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
When you write 27 to /sys/class/leds/red/pattern_id

The brightness should be 255 for LED

cat /sys/class/leds/red/brightness

Check time on/off

cat /sys/class/leds/red/time_on_off

Timed should be 500 it's set by kernel no need to change it.

cat /sys/class/leds/red/timed

[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
I'm not sure how to figure out the stock pattern for missed notification once and i'm not good at reading smali. I can only say with adb shell connected to a computer wait for a notification and then cat /sys/class/leds/red/pattern_id

This won't be the case on cm since I explicitly defined the pattern id in the kernel so they can be written by the light HAL.
