Is there any way I can change the DPI on this ROM?

I've tried copying "local.prop" with the line qemu.sf.lcd_density=270 in /data (as I did to AOSP 5.1.1) but it didn't work!

Any ideas? I'd love to try stock Lollipop until a custom Marshmallow is ready 100%.

You can try Textdroider app from play store. Not 100% sure if it will work.

Turn off by holding power

Press and hold power and vol down

When lg logo shows up release power button, wait a half second and hold all 3 buttons.

You get the screen saying something about erasing tablet press power twice(it won't erase but boot to TWRP again)

Are the v50030b roms in the links download in 1st(fishears kernel) and 2nd pure stock identical coz drive download speed is slow? I'm downloading the link from androidhost to use for pure stock. And when do I have to wipe cache and partition? Do I need to factory reset before flashing as well?

EDITED: I downloaded rom from androidhost and did steps for pure stock and flashed supersu zip and wiped cache afterwards, but didn't do a factory reset and my G Pad 8.3 is now ready to rock 2016! The 30b is awesome since no Korean words in settings and no Korean bloats compared to 30a and is pretty much an international version!

Thank you very much and other contributors as well!
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Jhon998:
Can I flash this over korean 30a? Will it wipe data? Will there be any crashes?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] aicjofs:
I flashed over Korean 30A and didn't notice any issues, I think others have done the same. Not much is different besides the language differences.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Fullmetal Jun:
If you have twrp recovery installed, you can flash 'anything'! If you don't choose reset or wipe data in recovery, no data will be lost! But you must wipe cache though! And remember to flash supersu zip as well! Since it's official stock rom and stable, no crashes expected.

[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] redhk886:

[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Fullmetal Jun:
Yeah! After flashing the rom, flash supersu.zip(v2.46 I think). There's a supersu link in the 30a and adrian 6.0 thread!

Can this rom be flashed with LG Support Tool? I don't have custom recovery installed and couldn't find a (easy) way to do it.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] tmihai20:
LG Support Tool can only flash KDZ files. This one, like all other custom ROMS, need a custom recovery.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Fullmetal Jun:
Root your tablet with towelroot(less than 15 sec). Download Rashr from play store and download the latest stable twrp recover zip. Flash it with rashr and you have a custom recovery(less than 5 mins). Download supersu.zip v2.46. Use rashr to boot to recovery, flash the 30B kdz, flash supersu and reboot. Done! These steps and problems were already covered in previous posts. It's only a 4 pages thread!
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] zdravke:
Well, it didn't work. My pad is rooted already, so I installed rashr and updated it to latest version. I chose twrp 3.0 and it failed, with "secure booting failed".
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Fullmetal Jun:
Sometimes when it fails, reboot to recovery and flash again and reboot!

Or you can use the modified Lg flashtool 2014 using pc. Since it's an official kdz, it's supposed to work!
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] zdravke:
Is there a guide on how to flash this rom with LG Flashtool 2014?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Fullmetal Jun:
Yes it's as simple as it gets. Install the good drivers and Google it, you'll find the guide on xda
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] zdravke:
"As simple as it gets" might mean "I haven't tried it myself, but what could go wrong". The rom is not even in kdz format which is required for LG Flash Tool. There are no guides anywhere for V500 and this tool, only generic guide for LG Flash Tool. I don't want to run my head into wall and ruin perfecly fine device by trying something nobody tried yet. I already cannot enter recovery mode, but at least device boots fine.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] tmihai20:
I replied to your other post, I just did not quote it. This is a kernel. LG FLash Tool 2014 can only flash kdz files. To flash this kernel you need to root your tablet (it can only be rooted on ROMS up to V20D, I tested it myself yesterday), install a custom recovery and then flash the zip that contains the V30A or V30B. Please do not re-ask your question, if you can't or won't root it, then you also cannot use this kernel.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] zdravke:
We are running in circles here. I cannot install custom recovery because I cannot boot into recovery mode. Please read everything before replying.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] cadkey:

Now it's our fault! Trying to help you and I'm gaining nothing in this.. Sorry for losing your time.. But I'm not interested replying people of your kind! If you can't get it right, blame only yourself :mad: The least you could do is replying politely!

This 30A rom is in kdz and can be used with the flashtool, but you lose root and get 2-3 Korean bloatwares installed! http://xdaforums.com/lg-g-pad-83/general/tutorial-korea-v30a-how-to-flash-t3076576

Guys i'd like to flash this rom, but i need to know a thing.

Actually i'm on cm13 and i have flashed kitkat bootloader provided by fefifofum, as said in his cm13 thread.

Can i simply flash this rom? Or do i need to change again bootloader?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] tmihai20:
What version is that? Because I was on V20D and V20F and I could flash the ROM without any problems. Flashing the V30A bootloader will break rooting the tablet.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] zdravke:
This rom hung already twice for me. I'm guessing it must be the custom kernel. Anyone else?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] fishears:
Ouch!
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Ci@cKi:
Honestly it happened to me too, and not only twice... but i never caugth any log, so i can't help... I just can tell you that you're not alone!
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] tmihai20:
It is not the custom kernel's fault. I used it for a long period of time, the more apps you install and you use, the slower it gets in time. I may be wrong, but the culprit is the Lollipop 5.0.2 memory leak. Try putting the task manager widget and check how much free memory is available in time. As soon as it gets around 250-300 the tablet becomes very sluggish to the point that it restarts itself. I thought that only resource intensive apps were causing this, but it happened even when opening a file manager or the Facebook app.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] zdravke:
What is this custom kernel used for in the first place to deserve being a default one in the ROM? I guess people using the stock one can chime in and report if they see the same issue.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] tmihai20:
The stock custom kernel is built from sources and has the gamma fix included, nothing else is different than the stock kernel. I am not using this Rom anymore, someone should flash the stock LG kernel and report here. I stopped using this Rom a week ago.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] auleu:
it freezes because of memory leaks, i tested with stock kernel too and also reflash and same thing. i found the culprit to be youtube and chrome, both of them have cache of around 200-300mb and when this limit hits the tablet becomes almost unusable and you have to force restart it. also clearing the cache works but it fills up fast.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Cffn:
Hello, I was on fefifofum cm13 too and I just simply flashed this rom with full wipes first.

No problems because this rom doesn't change bootloader and fefifofum cm13 provides a stock one. I prefer this rom because I like LG style (launcher, sounds, stock apps, lock screen), using IR!!!, etc.

Marshmallow aosp and cm13 are fine but they both seem to me really bored, clean and pure android without anything else. Maybe cm13 better than aosp because of theme engine, but it's not enought.

Help

Hi! I'd like to flash this Rom , but I cannot do it because I can't install a custom recovery on my tablet. It's stock rooted with towelroot V20f.

Which is the twrp version I have to download and how do I install it??? I've tried several times but the .bat file does´t work. When the windows open it says daemon started succesfully but then it closes and nothing happens.

I'm so tired of kitkat and don't wanna change bootloader. Could someone help me please??
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] sysak:
Had the same problem just with a newer bootloader since I've bought my tablet with korean v30a on it. I used LG Flashtool 2014 (Modified version of the original LG software) and flashed the UK V10b version from here: http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=39

After this the bat file worked and I had twrp on my tablet. I then used Flashify to flash the newest version of twrp (you could skip this step i guess) and then flashed the rom from it.

The whole process actually doesn't take that long.

After flashing CM 13.0 and v20f bootloader twrp stopped working, but i just reflashed it with Flashify and it worked again.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] asantand:
V 10b is kit kat or jelly bean??? Isn't it dangerous to downgrade in case it is jelly bean???
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Fullmetal Jun:
Jellybean! Nope not dangerous at all! In fact it's the go back to stock rom for many of us! Root it. After that flash twrp 3.0 or other recommended versions and flash the 30B zip followed by supersu.zip in recovery. An alternative to flashify is Rashr!
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] sysak:
Personally I recommend the Unofficial CM13. Tried 30b. Was decent but my g pad suffered from the memory leak bug. It would work perfectly for a day or 2 and after that out of nowhere it would slow down to an unusable level and required restarting. Even this issue aside I rate the CM13 rom by fefifofum much higher than the stock one.

USB Connection Mode needs to be toggled.

Toggle USB mode to another setting and then back again.

Ex.

Charge Mode to MTP then MTP back to Charge.

Ethernet Mode to MTP then MTP back to Ethernet.

Sometimes unplugging USB and then plugging back in helps.

Then press ENTER to confirm ADB root...

[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] tmihai20:
[MENTION=7255087]ronche2000[/MENTION]:make your modem WiFi stay to channels up to 11. Whenever the WiFi is on channels above 11, the tablet cannot access it. It is a regional lock, since this Rom was intended for the Asian market and channels above 11 are restricted there.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] ronche2000:
how to modem WiFi stay to channels up to 11?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] tmihai20:
[MENTION=7255087]ronche2000[/MENTION]: you go into the web interface for the modem (usually its IP address). Then you make it use only one channel, anything above 11. The default option is to make it choose the channel with the less interference. Some routers even have an option to choose region or country. I really do not know if this is your problem. Try to use a program like THIS ONE to scan for all available WiFi on another device when the G Pad does not detect your WiFi modem. You will be able to see on what channel it operates.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] ronche2000:
yeah your right. have a permanent fix? what if I go outside and use other friend wifi modem to connect? chances to connect and detect wifi is 50/50, its very annoying.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] tmihai20:
I wrote in another thread, but the fix is described here. You have to modify 2 files insde the system partition (tablet must be rooted). Refer to this post. It should make the tablet see all WiFi access points operating in any channel.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] ronche2000:
all-2.4-GHz-channels.zip

don't know hot to modify, so I need to flash this file? no need wipe dalvik cache? thanks
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] tmihai20:
No, it is not flashable with TWRP. You did not read the rest of the post. With a root app modify /system/etc/wifi/WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini by searching for the line that starts with gCrdaDefaultCountryCode and replace with

gCrdaDefaultCountryCode=UK

and /system/build.prop by searching for the line that starts with ro.wifi.channels and make it look like

ro.wifi.channels=14

I do not have the ROM anymore, I cannot make a flashable zip with the 2 files. Edit those 2 files as text and do as I said. I really cannot help more than this.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] ronche2000:

Does anyone have the stock KDZ file still?

Hi folks, I recently obtained a G Pad 8.3 (V500) which is still running Android 4.4. When I check for updates in the settings, it says it's running the latest version, so I think my only option to update it to Android 5 is by flashing it.

Unfortunately I can't find any valid links for downloading the KDZ file and other needed tools - the URLs at http://pkg02.xcdn.gdms.lge.com/ are no longer working.

Would someone be so kind as to share the KDZ file with me? Preferably for 30b, which apparently has more English, although I'll take 30a if necessary. And also the other tools that I'll need to flash this? Feel free to send me a PM if needed.
