Just a heads-up to those of you on the t-mobile variant I almost have a successful cm 12.1 build. I'll be making a thread on it soon. Just gotta deal with the friggin kernel :/
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
What's wrong with the kernel?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Riku Azhurlar:
Depends what you mean by capture. You can always use the dd command to make partition backups before and after the update

Any one with the metro version update yet? notice anything different? Usually I'd be the first to jump head in. But right now this is my only phone so I'm hesitant to mess with it to much.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Zycron:

[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
Weird I was sure [MENTION=3044858]DrakenFX[/MENTION] had adb working in recovery maybe he can comment on it.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
The flashable indeed gives Error executing updater binary in zip.

Last time a try adb work. I'll check it out again when iget my hands on my laptop.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Zycron:
ya let me know plz cause adb doesnt work with my twrp on the metro pcs ver.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
adb work on my end (T-mobile) , just a question are you talking about the Terminal from TWRP or the actual ADB (windows) just out of curiosity either way my works, i even push a file to sdcard to tested it out and it does recognize my device.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Zycron:
I got it VIA terminal

bootloader isn't locked?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Tenechi:
Any new features
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Zycron:
Ok so seems root did not stick .. the one that was with the instructions, so i guess that means bootloader is locked? not sure hehe
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
Root i guess you need to do the Root process again cuz this system.img is not root ready if not mistaken...

about bootloader locked? try manually booting to TWRP that shouldn't be change cuz i believe wasn't touch which mean bootloader still unlock or someone correct me if i'm wrong
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Zycron:
ok i will manually do it now and check

Flash SuperSU zip that should take care of it
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
Nope, didn't flash anything but kernel , modem, and system no new bootloader crap from LG
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
can i flash Boot,Modem and System via Download mode using Send_command? i suppose i can but just wondering
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
You could , same instructions but use bootdevice by-name symlinks since the other won't exist in download mode.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Zycron:
ok rebooted into twrp just fine ;) but when i goto reboot and twrp asks me if i want to root it doesnt seem to be rooting the phone.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
Here's the zip to flash http://download.chainfire.eu/740/SuperSU/BETA-SuperSU-v2.49.zip let me know how it goes
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Zycron:
NM flashed the supersu.zip and boom rooted once again!

Because there is no soc.0 folder it's a weird name

---------- Post added at 04:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:35 AM ----------

Needs to be modified for cm because cm relies heavily on caf sources while lg does not so when it compiles the graphic libs it calls kernel headers for some defines. And it fails because of them not being caf
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
It compiled just fine for me, I know it needs to be updated but it's not far behind caf. Especially with the 5.1.1 source release. Your are using my source ? or you did your own thing from scratch?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Riku Azhurlar:
Doing from scratch. But if you have something could ya pm me your guthub? If you've got cm I wanted to do either Pac-Man or AICP
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Zycron:
Is the kernel we flashed for the 5.1.1 outdated? Even if it is everything running great
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
https://github.com/TeamRegular

H631

g4stylus-common

g4stylus kernel

G4stylus vendor

Build will fail to flash in current twrp hopefully the 2.8.7 ones I released work
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Riku Azhurlar:
Sweet. I'll see if I can compile twrp that will work thanks man
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
Check like one or two pages back I posted two test builds. If they work then you can flash the cm I built a while back it's on androidfilehost as well with everything in LG H631 folder.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Riku Azhurlar:
Cool! I'll flash the twrp but personally cm is to bland for me but might use it till I get aicp or pay going
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Zycron:
I would love cm 12.1 on this device if you guys get it to flash correctly and cm is doing nightlies for this device im so ready lol
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
:( :crying: :eek: seems like i'm the one who can't flash this :crying: give up for tonight , tomorrow is another day
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
Why not do it through TWRP lol. Send_command is too complicated might enable adb in download mode to make life easier.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Zycron:
I did mine through twrp terminal worked first try
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
some reason ADB SHELL isn't working does see the device but ADB SHELL command isn't working shows " !#<[6n " or probably im just super tired and i have no idea what i'm doing lol
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
Well, you could type the command from twrp terminal I know that takes longer but it will work.

Finally fixed mounting issue
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Zycron:
Does this mean cm will flash now?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
It should, someone is testing it now. Once we get it flashing I think a few logs will help me get it booting.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Zycron:
O man you guys are amazing!!! I got gaaps and everything rdy for flsh ty so much for the time and effort
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] bnb25:
please Delete.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Riku Azhurlar:
I'm the tester '3' CM flashes but fails to boot due to a feature on this device called DemiGod in a nutshell its a hw monitor. If a core component fails to join the kernel userspace it will force crash the system. Currently that HW is wcnss aka wifi
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Riku Azhurlar:
Nope. Just get them on the device before hand then make sure mtpis enabled in mount and you can adb shell fine
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Riku Azhurlar:
Mtp not mtpis XD typos man XD just put the files on your device then enter recovery. Under mount should be a button that says enable mtp of it says disable mtp hit it twice lol then you can adb shell. I'm going to try and make a flashable zip of this to make it easier
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Riku Azhurlar:
No worries. I'm gonna test a theory tomorrow to see if it can be easier but till

Then. Anyhow. Once not is enabled your already good. Just plug the phone in and open comand prompt/line and adb shell
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Riku Azhurlar:
Same timezone then [emoji14] anyhow if my theory works we can just fastboot them

[MENTION=4911249]Unjustified Dev[/MENTION]

Thanks

Just want to confirm that the new twrp seems to be working great. With the previous version none of my flashable zips would flash (bootdevice by-name), but with the new version the same zips flash just fine.

As for the 5.1.1 update I haven't messed with it much, but there seem to be some nice new animations. LTE seems to be stronger, but I'll know tomorrow during peak hours. It also looks like they removed HDR from the options in the camera app so you'll probably have to do the manual mod.

Ya make sure to head to post #515 and click the thanks for the man. ;)
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] bnb25:
cool.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Riku Azhurlar:
Because of driver signiature enforcement no doubt. Google how to disable it. Thank me later
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] GameTheory.:
I extracted the 5.1.1 kdz pulled the partitions needed to update and made a flashable zip for the update which I flashed on my device. I'm uploading it right now to android file host. It's pretty late so I'll most likely post it in the afternoon when I get home from work. Unless it uploads any faster then it currently is.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] GameTheory.:
Alright guys I posted a flashable zip to update to android 5.1.1 for metro pcs & t-mobile users on my website. All downloads and simple instructions are there...

http://androidcreations.weebly.com/lg-g-stylo-update.html

!!! You must update with this method to avoid getting your bootloader locked !!!

For the Metro PCS & T-Mobile Stylo only! You must have the latest twrp v2.8.7.0 from post #515.

thanks GameTheory. also thanks to DrakenFX. Unjustified Dev ,fix-this! ,avicohh ,demonslayer12349. You all are awesome guys for helping us out. If it wasn't for guys like you. our phones would be boring and bland.:good:

5.1.1 update is working great! Data Speeds are blazing now. Went from the turtle to the hair. apps seem to open and close quicker. It's more responsive also.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Riku Azhurlar:
so i like asking before i do things to other peoples work but i want to use your zip as a basis for a T-Mobile one and i also think i can shrink the sytem image size down a bit so the zip isnt as bif if you dint mind me doing either ill gladly do em
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] AP2FTW:
just got the ota pushed to my phone but i think its time to finally root this sucker...lg can take that locked bootloader and cram it...thanks so much to everyone who put so much work into this new device so quickly
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Zycron:
well hopefully a mod here will give us our own section so we can organize all these links and stuff so things are easier to find,
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] AP2FTW:
yeah that would be nice...

so i think i have just one final question and its probably the stupidest yet...if more otas get pushed to the phones, the devs have a way to capture them so that rooted users can keep upgrading as well right?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
With [MENTION=2639577]GameTheory[/MENTION] permission were you able to create a flashable 5.1.1 Zip for us T-Mobile Users?

Is it feasible to remove the camera update, due to the HDR removal?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] bnb25:
I don't know why they don't just put the same camera app features on all their phones that they have on the G4.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] GameTheory.:
Ok guys just got back from work. Can someone post me a link to the t-mobile kdz so that I can make a flashable 5.1.1 zip for you guys.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
Might want to mention why we want to flash it this way and not via the ota or kdz if not rooted. Some people may not know about the locked bootloader on 5.1.1 . Also in the thread on Androidforums as well. Anyways thanks for the great work simplifying the installation.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] AP2FTW:
cant we just find it in here and turn it back on? http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=61349020&postcount=240
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
Possibly, hopefully they didn't disable it in the actual camera hal. If you don't see HDR in the Google camera then you know LG disabled HDR completely and if it is you should be able to enable it again from the camera_config
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] horsecharles:
Is it feasible to remove the camera update, due to the HDR removal?

Or at least don't downgrade the present ones.

I'm gonna back up the present one, at least I can revert afterwards.

I found HDR. You have to do the manual mod and then open the camera app and click on menu and set it to auto then click the other menu button in the app and hdr will be there.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] AP2FTW:
i just looked at the camera and i still have the hdr option...i cant get a damn screenshot though it just keeps taking pictures lol

---------- Post added at 02:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:32 PM ----------

i didnt even do that..just opened the camera and hit settings and my hdr setting was still there
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Riku Azhurlar:
Can you answer my previous question? Which is do you mind if I use your zips and shrink the system for smaller downloads?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] horsecharles:
I'm still on the road, but looks like GT has better solution post above.

[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] AP2FTW:
my hdr option was still there...i didnt have to do anything but thanks

could anyone tell me where i might find the xml file i need to edit to get the metropcs logo off the lock screen and notification panel? or is it in the build prop? im looking through the phone and i cant find it...or is there some other method on lg phones? :confused:
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
it's probably in the Frameworkres.apk but you could give Xposed a try and i would stay away from editing XML files since that's why my Boost variant is a soft brick now
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Zycron:
honestly until we get some solid recovery methods down and locked in i would stay away from xposed all together prolly, just to be safe.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] AP2FTW:
im afraid to try xposed...they say they updated it for lollipop now but thats how [MENTION=4256537]fix-this[/MENTION] bricked his prior to them updating it...now i just have to remember how to edit that framework...i did it on my s3 but its been a while

also i edited the xml file for the camera to get manual mode and it didnt brick...but i was only able to change the shutter speed once and now it seems like its stuck and i cant change it anymore?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] horsecharles:
I heard one is baked into lollipop, the other read off the SIM. Wanam xposed might help, a different lock screen download...

---------- Post added at 04:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:41 PM ----------

[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] AP2FTW:
i just did exactly what unjustified dev said to do in this post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=61349020&postcount=240

i only changed the manual mode from false to true though, i didnt change anything else
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
no wonder it's a different xml file :/ maybe that's where i should have edited....
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:

With you permission ill like to edit OP with this update

PS. Im still getting the OTA any way i can block this permanently?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] GameTheory.:
Yeah add to OP is fine.

OTA update was gone as soon as I updated. I even went into settings and checked for update and it says I'm up to date. Did you wipe cache and dalvik in recovery? Check if you have the ota update.zip sitting in the /cache directory.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
