No, it s not the regular Amazon app :) This is proprietary, in-house app for Amazon Flex , it likely uses some google API/lib or zxing/zbar lib to detect and scan QR and barcode . Again , the full stock 46A let the app detect both barcode and QR, but this 3.1.1 ROM only detects barcode . When I checked with 46A nandroid backup, I saw a lot of overlay stuffs got removed .
[Verizon LG G3] chickan:
Did you ever find a solution to this? I'm running into the same issue on my G3. I tried factory reset, same thing. I tried reflashing the rom, same thing. Seems like something goes wrong in the installation. I'm trying now on a different phone. Its funny, most things worked fine, but I could not install Messenger (facebook messaging), it would force close app store every time. Other apps installed fine (I'm guessing to my SD card). I also got errors trying to capture pictures to internal storage (Storage is full) and trying to download things in browser (storage is full).

EDIT: After doing more reading I'm now aware that apps normally install to /data, while user folders are in /sdcard and that was where the issue was. Still no clue what caused it or how to fix it.
[Verizon LG G3] chickan:
On my other phone install went fine, but I had issues with data not working. Ended up reflashing several times. Once you are on the rom, the TOT method of going back to 10B doesn't work (DLL mismatch), so I ended up doing the KDZ method then the TOT method, as that is a more complete wipe. In all I've probably TOT'd 5 times, KDZ'd another 6-8, and installed the rom 10 times between my two phones. Finally got everything working though! Definitely worth it over the stock 48A rom, so much faster and better battery life. Thanks for the great rom.
[Verizon LG G3] Juhful:
I installed this last night and everything is working well, but every time I get a text or an email the phone says aloud "network extender" ? does anyone have an idea why? I am using this phone on a GSM network and not using Verizons service. My previous OS was xdabbeb's 47a stock rom, ty.
[Verizon LG G3] Faateh:
I downgraded my VS985 on VS9854AA firmware to 10b by TOT-method and installed TWRP.

In the instructions it is mentioned that:

1. Flash Bootstack

2. Wipe Data & Cache

3. Flash ROM

I did this and had some apps left from 10b and after that I wiped /system and re-flashed. Which is the preferred method?

Warning: Do not wipe data after flashing the ROM or else you lose SuperSU

---------- Post added at 11:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:53 AM ----------

Why isn't wiping /system mentioned or is it understood?
[Verizon LG G3] Why-Fi:
Basically, if there was a need to wipe the system, the Dev would have listed that in the steps. You aren't flashing a new system. It's a stock based ROM, It's updated with security patches and other things above my pay grade. The best advice I can give in this instance is to follow the steps listed in the OP without deviation.
[Verizon LG G3] Faateh:
If that is the case then it raises the question that which stock firmware should be used as base firmware. I mean should this be flashed on a 10b or 35b or 47A stock ROM?
[Verizon LG G3] Why-Fi:
Coming from a stock rom, it doesn't matter. The proper bootstack is key. If you flash a 35b ROM with a 12b or 24b bootstack, you will run into connectivity issues. You still need the Android system. 10b, 35b, 46-7-8-9a are the firmware versions. Gotta have the foundation to build on top of. Know what I mean?
[Verizon LG G3] Faateh:
I get what you are saying, I am running the ROM after wiping /system and everything is fine. Just wanted to confirm the intent of developer.

Hats off to him though. Nice work.
[Verizon LG G3] Why-Fi:
Cool deal. Glad it's working. I run it from time to time, when I feel like going old school.
[Verizon LG G3] abced123:
I keep having reset overlay permission when running some apps . How to fix this ?
[Verizon LG G3] harry_seaward:
I really haven't paid much attention to the modding thing in a long while...

I'm running xdabeb's stock ROM VS98547A build number MRA58K.

How far out of date am I? Can I dirty flash the 48A release in OP with no major issues?
[Verizon LG G3] JSK333:
Miracast does not work for me on this ROM either. Latest 3.1.1.

It worked fine on other stock ROMs like Skydragon, etc.

Definitely a big disappointment for me as well.
[Verizon LG G3] Why-Fi:
Use a ROM that isn't stock MM. That started happening with...46a I believe.

Private call

Hi guys, I have one strange issue. After I call someone, in call history that contact will be marked like restricted and I can't see with who I was talked. But when I receive calls everything works normal, and if dialed contact don't answer on call it's normal again. I have tried to install google dialer, but situation is changed only form restricted to private number.

Thanks in advance
[Verizon LG G3] NatesLaw:
I believe the XDABBEB VS98547A ROM you're referring to is a separate ROM. It's actually "more stock" than this one and is fully bloated (you debloat using related tools in that OP).

This is almost like an AOSP ROM with LG skins...

Clean flash is a must.
[Verizon LG G3] djevil:
So bootstack is only for stock roms not for custom is that correct
[Verizon LG G3] djevil:
This 35b bootstack isn't working for lineageos it need to be fix for that operating I keep getting unknown baseband
[Verizon LG G3] Why-Fi:
I don't have any issues with it.

I've already told you what you need to do. So has the maintainer for one of the LOS Roms that you post on. You sure you don't want to just keep flashing that same .Zip file? Might as well. Lol
[Verizon LG G3] alich3451:
I installed 35b after flashing Fulmics 6.5 and not getting 4G. Can I try 24b bootstack after flashing Fulmics 6.5 to get 4G working? Please help. I'm from Pakistan, 4G band is Band3
[Verizon LG G3] djevil:
What the hell u talking about I try different bootstack
[Verizon LG G3] Why-Fi:
I don't have any idea what I'm talking about. What are YOU talking about? And why use foul language? There are plenty of other colorful words in the English language to use other than curse words to really drive home an exclamation. ?

---------- Post added at 12:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:23 AM ----------

Why did you install 35b after flashing the ROM? Did you post about your issue on the thread for that ROM? Or search it?
[Verizon LG G3] alich3451:
If I install it before flashing Fulmics I don't baseband/network... Should I try 24b, after or before, please tell me?
[Verizon LG G3] Why-Fi:
If you came from this ROM, you shouldn't have to flash any bootstacks or modems to run fulmics. Follow the installation instructions for any ROM you flash.
[Verizon LG G3] alich3451:
But there's no 4G no matter what I do, that's why I'm asking about flashing 24b bootstack.. Please help
[Verizon LG G3] Why-Fi:
Alright, try this ( I did this recently when I had issues): get all 3 bootstacks, 12, 24 and 35b, and this ROM. Reboot to recovery, wipe system, data, cache, dalvik, install all 4 zips in that order. It worked for me. I can't guarantee it will work, but it did work for me. If you have 4g after that, then you should be able to use fulmics. Don't flash any bootstacks or modems when going to that ROM. No need. Good luck bro.
[Verizon LG G3] alich3451:
Let me try

I'm on it

---------- Post added at 02:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:00 PM ----------

Is this a rom? Firmware/Patches:

XDABBEB's VS985 3.1.1
[Verizon LG G3] Why-Fi:
Yes. The 3.1.1 is the ROM.
[Verizon LG G3] rcchusid:
That is one of the many nuisances of Marshmallow. Turning off specific apps might solve the problem. In may case, I had to turn off Lux when this became a problem. I more recently found an Xposed module which solves it called NoOverlayWarning
[Verizon LG G3] slainte_0317:
I will say, Miracast is not working well for me on this version (actually, not working well on 47a either, but seemed ok on 4.4.2). I created the file, rebooted, then powered down and did a battery pull. After that, some devices are showing up and searching seems to work. But it seems unstable. Has trouble finding the Roku Premier + device as well.
[Verizon LG G3] JSK333:
Can you explain what file you are creating related to Miracast? Link to a how-to maybe?
[Verizon LG G3] jimbob_sf:
[MENTION=7285591]alich3451[/MENTION]

I had the same data problems with fulmics. it's a great rom, but I switched to this rom and I've had zero issues with radios and this is amazingly fast with zero tweaking.
[Verizon LG G3] pistacios:
In the first post under "how to install":

[*]Toggle miracast on/off by creating /sdcard/miracast file and rebooting (by default this is OFF)
[Verizon LG G3] jadams161:
Man I wish xdabbeb would give us an update to this rom. Not that it's not great just want to flash more of his work. Long live the G3!
[Verizon LG G3] NatesLaw:
I second this.

Would love a Nougat version of stock.

My comments not meant as anything but respect for [MENTION=2941286]xdabbeb[/MENTION] 's work.
[Verizon LG G3] manaox2:
Can't do it properly. Qualcomm is not coding drivers for the snapdragon 801 that work with Android N and above. The G3 will never receive a full fledged unofficial or official Nouget update it seems.

All I want in an update is the February and previous security patches. The performance and features of this phone is still fantastic with this ROM, doing my best to hold out for the snapdragon 835 mostly for that crazy power efficiency.

Then again, I know this developer like several others has since moved on to other devices and hasn't posted here in about two months. I'm not holding my breath for more development, just happy it got this far.
[Verizon LG G3] NatesLaw:
That's good info, thanks.

Personally, the G3 still holds up to most others in performance. Still loving mine, purchased over 2 years ago. I've added a "Powerbear" extended battery that barely adds bulk and I get @ 8 hrs screen on time with most kernel settings for performance. I actually have this MM ROM as well as N roms Tipsy, Validus and RR all saved in internal memory and alternate between them with no hiccups and plenty space left over. This device is STILL a beast!

I get it...people move on...but it's a shame sometimes. Newer ain't always better.
[Verizon LG G3] acefr:
My G3 is on 10B stock with root. I want to flash this rom. Do I need to flash all 3 bootstack 12B, 24B, then 35B, or I should just flash 35B bootstack only? Thanks.
[Verizon LG G3] Cjneko:
Stupid question I'm sure, but do I need to install the xdabbeb_stock_vs98547a BEFORE I install the 3.1.1 patch? Or do I need to just skip ahead and install xdabbeb_vs985_3.1.1

Thanks!
[Verizon LG G3] NatesLaw:
Not a dumb question at all...

The answer is No. They are completely separate ROMs.

The 47A ROM is actually "more stock" as it's exactly the way your phone would be "out of the box"...minus any debloating you do.

The 3.1.1 ROM looks mostly the same but the menu feels more like an AOSP ROM. Cleaner...

3.1.1 runs better too, in my opinion.

Good luck.
[Verizon LG G3] altwu:
just the 35b bootstack.
[Verizon LG G3] Cjneko:
Ah Great :) Thank you so much! I'll go with the 3.1.1 then.
[Verizon LG G3] danbest82:
You should just be able to flash this ROM then 35b bootstack. Some guys recommend flashing 35b before and after the ROM. Can't hurt to do both. Make a backup of course.

Just flash this ROM and the 35b bootstack before and after to be safe. Make a backup of course.
[Verizon LG G3] Cjneko:
So I did this. And phone won't boot past TWRP. It was working fine until I thought, "Eh I'll go back and flash the boot stack again". Phone got stuck on TWRP. Re-installed from the Nandroid backup I did before re-flashing the boot stack, and still won't boot past TWRP. So started all over, used LG Flash Tool to reinstall the original firmware. Everything loaded back up ok. And now TWRP won't install the boot image for my device it gives an error saying it can't fetch the data, or it's not available for my device. Went to TWRP's site to try and download the image from there. 404 file not found for any version of TWRP on the LG G3 VS985. So I am essentially stuck now.

So in essence. Do not flash the boot stack again after flashing the rom.

Thanks!
[Verizon LG G3] danbest82:
Ah crap! I'm really sorry to hear that. I know I've flashed the bootstack after the ROM in the past. I don't know what went wrong in your case. Here are TWRP official and unofficial on my dropbox. Hope they help.

Official: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ghiio74oeb1no96/twrp-3.0.0-0-vs985.img?dl=0

[Verizon LG G3] acefr:
Thanks for the warning. You probably saved me a lot of grief. I was wondering why need to flash the boot stack after the ROM as the instruction on the first page does not mention anything about it. Anyway, I hope you can get your phone back to working soon.
[Verizon LG G3] Cjneko:
So still not entirely sure what happened, but apparently TWRP was updating or something and their servers were down? I couldn't access any of there files on my phone OR my computer. I'm not sure if that had something to do with my phone not booting past TWRP? But it definitely kept me from being able to flash TWRP after I reinstalled the original firmware lol.

But in any case whatever they did they finished at 7 am this morning because I was finally able (at exactly 7:01) to flash TWRP and get my boot on lol. So I don't know what to tell you all. If somebody else wants to try flashing the boot stack, then firmware, then boot stack again give it a shot and let us know. I'm certainly not doing it again lol.
[Verizon LG G3] doctae:
3-way call

Forgive my ignorance, but it is about time I figure out how to make a 3-way call on this ROM.

Is this possible?
[Verizon LG G3] Cjneko:
So I haven't found this answer in here yet so maybe it's in another post somewhere? But is there a VVM for the 3.1.1 patch? I liked Verizon's simple voice mail app. NO I don't want google voice, I don't need a new number, and I'm not porting my number to google voice, I'm fine with Verizon. Honestly Google Voice is the stupidest, elitist crap I've ever seen. STOP TRYING TO BE APPLE! All these Android people running around "Oh Apple sucks, oh oh they suck", and then turn around and just become another Apple. I don't want everything integrated into Google. Just like I don't want everything integrated into Apple. It's not a hard concept to understand. If not VVM that works with Xdabbeb's hack, then any third party app I can download that does the same thing that doesn't forward my calls around all over the place like Youmail? Youmail was too damn fishy. Just answer a missed call when somebody calls MY number, and let them leave a voice mail. How is that so hard?

Rant over, sorry about that I'm just getting frustrated with the lack of info on this and every stupid elitist that says "just get Google Voice" like my annoying friends that used to say "Just get Google Hangouts". "Just jump on whatever current, trendy bandwagon everyone else happens to be on that will probably die in a couple years." How about no?

Thanks!

Actually (better later than never?) I do have a fix for this! I had the same issue where my install kept failing. Instead of installing LGVS985_20140620_LGFLASHv160.dll with VS98510B_03.tot in the LG Flash Tool, start off by installing LGUP8974.dll (.dll for the LG G2) and VS98510B_03.tot (so the .tot file actually doesn't change). When your phone displays the big red 2 on the blue back ground that's as far as the install will go basically. At that point you can pull your battery and then put it back in. Again holding the up volume plug your USB cable back in and now swap out the LGUP8974.dll with the LGVS985_20140620_LGFLASHv160.dll (again same .tot file) and run it again. This time it should run all the way through the normal install until you see the giant red number 3 on the blue background. Give it a few more seconds to run through 100% in the LG Flash Tool and it will say "PASS!" and your good to go! Pull the battery and boot back up in factory 10b :)

Another issue I had while doing this is sometimes it wouldn't run all the way through and it would still fail. You will get frustrated that this may keep happening and you may need to uninstall the com port 41 that your phone is connected to and then plug the USB cable back in to start a fresh new com 41 port, but keep trying. Eventually it will run all the way through. I was getting errors when I originally tried all this stuff a year or so ago, and I just kept repeating, running the LG G2 .dll and then running the LG G3 .dll and eventually it just works. Sounds corny but sometimes that's how computers work :p but don't give up!
[Verizon LG G3] skay:
did you try 2.0 VVM 35b install?

>> So I haven't found this answer in here yet so maybe it's in another post somewhere? But is there a VVM for the 3.1.1 patch? I liked Verizon's simple voice mail app. <<

Just wondering since you didn't state this (unless you did in a prior post that I didn't read). Did you already try the VVM zip install for the 2.0 version on top of 3.1.1? I assume since it says for the 35B bootstack it may work fine with the updated xdabbeb 3.1.1 MM update. I know trying without having confirmation is always a little treacherous, but it seems like it may just work as is, so since you are backed up it seems like it's worth a try.
[Verizon LG G3] jlb1959.01:
why did you lose vvm??. I have no problem.
[Verizon LG G3] :
I am by no means an expert with flashing ROMs but I've been successful in the past. Interested in trying this one but someone enlighten me....How do you manipulate the device at all at first without a launcher or keyboard app?
[Verizon LG G3] mopartonyg:
It installs with those, you have to modify the rom after you set it up to loose those. Read the OP it explains it all.
[Verizon LG G3] :
Ah ha

Whoops...yes I see. I am notorious for skimming. Thanks.
[Verizon LG G3] acefr:
I want to thank xdabbeb for developing this rom. My VS985 has come from 10B KitKat. The standby time is simply amazing. I used to get half day of standby time and now I can get a full day. The phone is much more snappy. I think this rom can extend the life my G3 to another year until G6 drops down in price.
[Verizon LG G3] Flyertech:
Cold Boot Issues Anyone?

I am wondering if anyone can tell me if the cold boot issue has been solved or if they are even having the issue. I flashed back to 12B, loaded the ROM and bootloader but could not get past boot until I flashed SkyDragon. Once I flashed SkyDragon I was able to flash this ROM and then it worked. great. I did flash the corresponding 35B bootstack. Now I have noticed if I turn the phone off for any length of time (usually greater than 10 min) I get a black screen and it won't boot until I do a battery pull. This does not happen if I put it on a charger before shutting down and leave it on for boot up. Any suggestions are appreciated!
[Verizon LG G3] JCDinPGH:
Anyone replace the SIM card in this ROM?

I have been using this ROM for several months with no issues until one day the OS started to either not recognize the SIM card (SIM CARD invalid) or wouldn't even recognize the SIM card was even installed. It has been happeniing for a month or so now. The SDCARD also appears to get disconnected randomly. I found many posts of others with similar issues on many different phone models so I have tried just about everything you can imagine. I finally just figured it must be the LG G3, so I purchased a VS985 from ebay and moved the SIM card over and immediately had the exact same issues with the SIM card. So I figured I would just get a replacement SIM card. I did and the OS (no longer XDABEB) on the newer phone wouldn't recognize the SIM card no matter what. I did yet another factory reset as per Verzions instructions but nothing would get the OS to recognize the new SIM card in the newer phone. VErizon sent out another SIM card and it also is not being recognized by the default version of Android on the newer phone or even XDABEB which I have installed on the newer phone.

Two VS985 phones and 3 SIM cards (2 new and the original) and the only SIM card that works, albeit inconsistently, is the original SIM card. It still randomly disconnects or is not detected at all on boot. It can take 10 boots to get it to be recognized sometimes, in either phone. I just don't know where to go from here since I find it hard to believe that two VS985s both have the same hardware issue and can only read/recognize one SIM card of the three. Someone, anyone?! Please have suggestions?

I'm very tempted to give in an get a new phone but since most newer phones are not easily rooted, I was hoping to stick with my LG G3 for.
[Verizon LG G3] hokiealumnus:
Not much you can do there. I had a vs985 act like that for about a month before it finally bit the bucket altogether and won't even power up.

Now I'm happily purring along with crDroid on a Pixel XL. Don't buy one from Verizon though, they're locked down for good. If you get it from Google the world is your oyster. :)
[Verizon LG G3] JCDinPGH:
It's just so weird that two different VS985 and both have the same issues with not recognizing the SIM or having it disconnect randomly. It makes no sense at all especially with 3 SIM cards and only one (the same one) SIM card is ever recognized and goes active in either phone. It looks like I am going to have to just submit and give in and get a new phone, but with the lack of root options these days, it's very hard to find a phone with all of the options I want like an external SDCARD, removable battery, rootable and TWRP..
[Verizon LG G3] Edde3d:
Try this as it worked for me. Take a piece of paper and fold it in half and fit it under the Sim card slot so it pushes the prongs up then put a piece of tape on the Sim card and insert it into Sim card slot. It makes a better connection. This worked for me and has been working since. Good luck.

Kickin' it on my vs985
[Verizon LG G3] jlb1959.01:
I had the same issue and vzw told me there was an issue with vs985 on a certain batch,I was still covered and went thru 4 phones,on the 5 the one now,been 3 month with new phone,my 1st phone was 3 yes old..started out I thought I messed up flashing so I went back to stock and turned it in for a new phone( multiple sin cards first), and straight out of the box the sim kept reading searching for global settings,no sim. sorry for the bad news,but like the previous post said try the paper along with the sim I assume there is a problem with the sim tray on certain vs985..
[Verizon LG G3] ST Dog:
Concur.

First one, bought used, was flakey reading​ the SIM. First tape helped it make contact, but only fir a week or so.

Seller replaced it and replacement​ has been fine for around a year.
[Verizon LG G3] jlb1959.01:
with myself I had no luck with vzw as far as a solution beside them offering an upgrade.can honestly tell you after 8 months of fighting with vzwv I've given up.if someone knows I would be happy as my wife's phone now has the same problem..only with several reboots(8,9) can she gain sim card..good luck mate...

---------- Post added at 05:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:38 PM ----------

to make a quick update for you and many others the vs985 supposedly had a bad batch of phone with that problem,as well as the lg5.. honestly I buy old phones and go about the down grade etc,a shame but that's the only solution,long story short I have a great friend that is part of xda that took my phone and tried everything possible,new tray,tot to stock kdz, etc and the fix was only good for a day..good luck if you have the time to mess around,myself,NY phone isn't a toy, I run a small trucking firm and dispatch thru Mt phone,so I get NAD at no phone use,or sudden loss of sim,the thing is you don't know til you go to use the phone..
[Verizon LG G3] ST Dog:
I think replacing the SIM/SD socket would do the trick. But it's not an easy task on the G3. LG didn't​ make it modular, so you have to desolder the old one (tough with the surface mount socket) and solder on a new one.
