[LG G Stylo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] br0adband:
Well so much for that I guess. :)

Did a clean wipe and install of 11-16 and set it up without connecting the Wi-Fi at all, then went back to recovery and flashed the Wi-Fi fix just posted by GT but it didn't help - I then tried a clean wipe and install and also flashing the fix before booting into the ROM and the same thing: just an insta-reset and loop once the Wi-Fi is enabled and it connects.

Mind you that's the issue for me: it's not just enabling Wi-Fi, that works fine and I can see all the APs around me listed, the issue comes when I try to make an actual connection - that's when the reset loop begins. I have no idea what to do about it since that fix doesn't work (at least for me) so I'll roll back again to a backup of a fully functional 10-22 and just continue hoping for the best.

Seems a bit odd but I suppose there are always variations in the products, the software, etc. Even two devices coming off the production line one right after another can and often do exhibit massive differences in performance and many other respects.

Regardless, the 10-22 build works great on my Stylo and I'm very happy to have the chance to run something that's a bit better than "pure stock" I suppose. Irked because I can't get the CPU parameters to change - it simply will not go below 800 MHz regardless of the tool I use (SetCPU root, Trickster MOD, etc). CPUSpy shows that it just never uses the lower speeds (533, 400, or 200 MHz, or even deep sleep for that matter).

Having the Stylo not go into deep sleep is a big issue overall on battery life but that's how it goes - it does the same thing on the pure stock 10j, oddly enough.

EDIT:

Since I hate giving up I took a chance and did an upgrade of 11-16 on top of the fully working 10-22 install I had backed up and voila, it works without any issues at all. No Wi-Fi glitches causing a device reset, so I don't know what the hell is or continue to be borked with a clean install. Been running for like 20 minutes so far and I've checked out about as much as I can to see what might be broken. Of course because it was an in-place upgrade that means I have a lot of stuff installed by default with the 10-22 build that the 11-16 build has had ripped out so I'm still hoping at some point a solution might be found as to why doing a clean install of 11-16 is causing the Wi-Fi glitch for me (and at least the one other person that's reported the same behavior).

And as an added bonus, the CPU parameters are now working in 11-16 meaning I had it set (using SetCPU root) to use 200 MHz as the lowest speed and finally it's actually downclocking as expected - now the only issue is that all 4 cores remain online constantly; at least 3 of them should be able to kick into offline mode in times of pure idle behavior. And deep sleep is working now too so, my battery life should improve considerably so I'll do some monitoring to see if these finally functional lower CPU speed states will have an effect.
[LG G Stylo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] AP2FTW:
when you say you did a "clean wipe" are you doing more than a factory reset? im only asking because the instructions just say to do a factory reset, and when i hear "clean wipe" it makes me think you are doing a factory reset PLUS an advanced wipe of everything else...if so, maybe that is your issue?
[LG G Stylo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] br0adband:
I've done both:

- flash the 10j KDZ so it's truly "fresh" then boot into it, then do the root/install TWRP/make backup/do factory reset (just the slider, nothing else changed as GT mentions in the OP)/flash 11-16 and boot into it where it does the reset loop when attempting to connect to a Wi-Fi AP

- flash the 10j KDZ then boot into it, root/install TWRP/make backup/do full wipe (Dalvik cache/System/Data/Internal Storage/Cache)/flash 11-16 and boot into it where it does the reset loop when attempting to connect to a Wi-Fi AP

So far the only way I've been able to get 11-16 on this Stylo of mine and be able to connect to any Wi-Fi AP is what I mentioned at the end of the post above: I restored the 10-22 working backup I had and then installed 11-16 directly on top of it without any type of wipe whatsoever.

It's still working fine but I just encountered some issues running Hangouts (everything is fully updated, however): it's giving me an error that says "Unknown issue with Google Play services."

Now that could be something entirely unrelated to this ROM or my device - it could be an issue on Google's end so, I'll make a backup of this "upgraded" installation and then roll back to the 10-22 backup and test Hangouts again.

Small steps, small steps... ;)
[LG G Stylo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] AP2FTW:
thats strange...hope you can get it figured out

after i installed this new version and downloaded gmail, i was prompted to update google play services upon opening gmail for the first time...did you get that prompt when opening hangouts? if not, do you use gmail or maps...something that you can download fresh and maybe it will prompt you to update google play services?
[LG G Stylo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] br0adband:
Yah, I'm aware that Hangouts will prompt for the updated Google Services which was then installed without issues, I just can't figure out what the problem is. At first I thought it was because I needed to re-assign all SMS/MMS and phone calls to Hangouts from my Google Voice account (meaning everything now goes to Hangouts instead of GV where I could log in through a browser and retrieve content) but that wasn't it either.

Little issues overall, nothing major - as noted above the scaling features of the CPU work as they should now (aside from those 3 cores not being able to go offline, not sure the Snapdragon 410 can handle that aspect actually) it's fast and snappy but then again the pure stock ROM seemed just as fast and snappy to me.

It's certainly not a monster performance smartphone but it's pretty swift just the same, custom ROM or not (and yes I know Katana is basically a gutted Metro PCS stock ROM with a custom kernel) - even so it's a nice device overall.

My only big gripe at this point is the GPS: it looks like I happened to get one of the nearly useless ones. Even when I enable the High Accuracy and use all sources (cellular, Wi-Fi, and actual GPS) if I get a fix ever it's a miracle. It'll show 20 to 25 satellites sometimes but I can barely get a green signal (as opposed to yellow which is barely registered at all) and in 2 days of mucking around with this device in broad daylight without any buildings or roofs blocking the GPS signals coming in from those satellites I still can't get a fix.

Bleh, nice in some respects, not so nice in others. :D
[LG G Stylo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] runningnak3d:
You list all the steps you are taking to flash, but I don't see where you are flashing the partitions for either T-Moble or Metro. Just thought I would bring it up just in case you were missing that. I haven't checked to see if neither is included in the base ROM, but I assume they were since they are listed as a requirement to flash 11-16.

[MENTION=2639577]GameTheory[/MENTION] -- Man, amazing job on debloating. I use link2sd so I only need a couple gigs of internal storage, but it is nice having over 10gigs free. Also I had done a lot of the tweaks to speed things up a bit, but man, your work on the kernel has made this thing butter smooth. I can't find any lag now. I have a Note4 as well, and I still get lag on it (rarely, but it is there).

I hope you decide to continue to tweak this ROM -- for example, adding support for PS3 / PS4 controllers (I don't have time anymore to setup a build environment :( ).

Hi GameTheory, is there any way to get rid of the battery percentage indicator/label?

If the solution was already stated, then I apologize.

i use 2 xposed modules to mod my battery indicator, gravitybox and xstana
[LG G Stylo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] ryanstowers:
I have followed every step in the process, I even restored it to stock using the 10j KDZ file, re-rooted, installed TWRP, but the problem im having is really specific, and sounds like it could be something simple that im missing.

Lirerally ANY time i attempt to flash ANY .ZIP, it just reboots into recovery immediately. I still have the device working fine on the old turbo rom backup that I made, But i really want to flash KATANA. So can it be the wrong version of TWRP maybe ? I only flashed the TWRP version listed in the rom install instructions.

If has any clue what this could be, please let me know, thank you in advance.

thanks. yeah no problem, its the ubuntu font from this thread (its like the 5th font down i think) http://xdaforums.com/android/themes/fonts-flashable-zips-t2964304

just download the zip and flash it in recovery...i found it back when i had my s3 and been using it ever since :good:
[LG G Stylo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] GameTheory.:
Since I run ubuntu on all my desktops and those fonts look the same, I'll take a wild guess and say they're ubuntu fonts. Of course my guess could be wrong.

Here's a flashable zip for ubuntu fonts along with the stock fonts in case you wanna go back...

I'll add this to the "Optional Flashable Extras" section as well.

[LG G Stylo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] br0adband:
Just as an update I was never able to resolve the Google services issue(s) I was having so I went back totally to stock 10j by KDZ method and figured I'd stay with it but of course as mentioned earlier I hate not being able to fix or resolve something that other people aren't having an issue with so...

Earlier I started over again with this process:

- KDZ back to 10j pure stock

- root it

- log into my Google account to get Flashify from the Play Market and flash TWRP

- back up what I have at that point just in case (I had like 20GB of backups that I got rid of and started fresh with just this one)

- reboot to recovery, factory reset ONLY then install Katana 11-16 + flash the Metro PCS partitions all in one fell swoop (I did that twice before, same process exactly but the Google services issue was still there)

- boot into Katana 11-16 and don't connect to the Wi-Fi during the setup, just skip as much as possible to get the ROM settled for 15 mins or so

- get online in the same manner as previously (same access point, password, etc) and THIS TIME IT WORKED without the reset loop and I have no idea why it's working

- log into Google account with Play Market, grab Gmail/Hangouts/etc and test funcitionality

And as stated THIS TIME it's working, everything is working as it should, not one issue so far: Gmail and Hangouts work fine for all purposes (VoIP calls over Wi-Fi, SMS/MMS etc). Haven't had one issue in the past 2 hours or so since I finished the ROM install, so far so good.

So NOW my sig is accurate. :D

GT: you might have missed my question earlier about what tool you prefer or recommend to check on or modify some parameters - in the screenshots I've seen you using SetCPU so is that what you generally use or is there something else you'd suggest?
[LG G Stylo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] GameTheory.:
Glad to see you resolved everything. :good:

My bad, missed that question in your last post. I'm usually in a rush so sometimes I skim through long posts and miss stuff.

I use SetCPU for now.

Your Device is MetroPCS variant so YES this rom is feasable for you with no problem no matter on which carrier you're going to be using it, you only need to add the right APN (Cricket APN) to get everything working (Data,MMS,SMS and so on)
[LG G Stylo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] br0adband:
Just to ask: does anyone know how to pull the old school browser from the stock Metro PCS build and make use of it on this Katana ROM? I know it's somewhat lame, it's behind the times also, but it's ridiculously fast in comparison to most anything else including Opera mini. In Sunspider (the old version 1.02 not the new "Jetstream") that old browser consistently pulls in sub-1000ms scores easily while other browsers are 1200+ - it's just very fast and snappy and I kinda like having it installed. I have the AdBlock Browser installed (for testing), and Firefox but I tend to avoid Chrome as much as possible and it's not installed presently - I'll install it if I have to but so far I don't see that happening, but if I can get that stock browser put back in place that would be just about perfect.

I did take a peek inside the stock 10j ROM, and I also looked inside the priv-app folder on a stock installation and yanked the LGBrowser folder (which has the LGBrowser.apk as well as the \arm folder with the LGBrowser.odex file in it and I simply can't make any use of it at all on Katana.

I know there are a lot of "AOSP Browser" apps out there, a bunch of 'em, but I'd prefer to just make use of the one that came on this device and I see it's been yanked out of Katana so, just curious if it's possible to install it manually in some manner.

Been using the 11-16 build for a few days now, no issues of note, it runs very well indeed so, congrats, GT, it's a winner. ;)

Well after several days of running Katana 11-16 there's only one glitch I've found so far and I don't know if it's just my particular device or something else, but I can't get any of the voice keyboard functionality to work on any keyboard I've tried (LG, Google, BlackBerry, etc). What I mean by that is voice-to-text where I hit the mic icon and then say what I want to say and it's transcribed into text - I use that quite frequently actually and it's a real time-saver overall because I'm not a fast typer with onscreen keyboards like some folks are.

I'm not sure if it's just some setting I'm missing someplace in the keyboard options (any of them I've tried) but it sure would be nice to figure it out.

Is anyone else having issues with this type of functionality? I installed Voice Search for Google, that doesn't work - I get the mic icon on the Google keyboard but none of the others and when I tap it nothing happens. Not sure what's going on but I'll keep working on it.

That's about the only gripe I have at this moment. That functionality works without issues on the stock 10j ROM, of course, just not on Katana (at least not so far). It did work on the 10-22 build, on this same device however. I'm going to presume that something got yanked from the ROM between the builds that broke this so I'm hoping to resolve it if anyone has any suggestions or is having the same issues (if you use the voice-to-text feature).

And while I don't use it, Apple Music doesn't even appear as an app when I search the Play Market for it - just Beats Music comes up. I don't even see the "Your device isn't compatible..." crap - it's just not there, period.
