[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] earlymorninghours:
I'm using a first gen SanDisk 128GB microSD card without any problems - other than how slow it is. I just ordered a 200GB card which is also rated much faster than what I have now. I'm looking forward to seeing how that works out. I've been on this ROM for maybe two weeks now and I have to say that it's the first time I've really enjoyed using this tablet. Not one crash, instant reboot, nothing - for two weeks. This has to be a record for me and I've had MANY Android devices going back to Froyo. BTW, I've had zero issues with Xposed and GravityBox. Everything is smooth and stable.

So thank you for this excellent ROM!
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] takis:
Me to man hope this man fixed my g3 as well lol ??... Up to date, fast and smooth, rock stable. What else do you need guyz!!! Respect to [MENTION=4297659]adrianom[/MENTION] ...
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] bofis:
So for those of us with a Google Play Edition (V510) would this work? I've been holding out for an actual official update, but it's hard to tell if/when that'll be...
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] muffnman:
I know this is a long shot, but is there a chance that this ROM can detect the built in IR blaster?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] dirlan2001:
I suggest you guy's take a look at Open Camera in the PlayStore :) Worx a charm on latest ROM

Cheers
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Deltadroid:
I am currently testing if the External Storage read ahead value has any effects on the frequency of the sdcard unmounts during sleep mode. I don't have this ROM installed, but I thought I would suggest this if anyone wants to try. The current value of the read ahead on the external sdcard is 512kb. This "read ahead" value can be changed using a free program called Kernel Adiutor.

Instructions:

Open side menu in Kernel Adiutor and select "I/O Scheduler"

Under External Storage, select 1024kb and select "Apply on boot".

If you are experiencing sdcard unmounts during sleep mode, please let us know if changing the default read ahead value of 512kb to 1024kb has any improvements.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] GXGOW:
Alright, I will try this when I get home. I'll report back later. Thanks for the tip!

[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Stefano2991:
Can't install app from apk file in the last rom...is a marshmallow or rom problem? I've already turn on third part permission...
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] ckret:
no

no
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] takis:
On the g3 there is a qremote app for aosp tho ;)
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] GXGOW:
My SD Card is formatted as internal storage. I've set the read-ahead value to 1024 kb, like you said, but unfortunately, the unmounts still occur as often as they did before.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Zeljko1234:
I think that unmounting is happening because of kernel power management or something similar. Looks like that system turn off sdcard during sleep. That good but is not turning on in time or doesn't wait enough for sdcard become ready.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] aicjofs:
The way it's handled though is entirely different. G3 has a hardware device to connect to. Gpad and a couple of the G2 mini phones have more of a software approach. The Gpad starts a binary "irrcServer" in the ramdisk(and one other item I can't remember), that binary requires at least libirrc.so, libirrcClient.so, libirrcJni.so. Those seem to also be tied to part of the LG framework. Anyway, I'm not saying it can't be done just that on the G3 they simply connect to ttyX and it just works, the Gpad needs a lot more software reverse engineering. Basically the IR functions are apples to oranges between the two.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Deltadroid:
Thanks for trying.

Could you also try changing the read ahead value from 512kb to 128kb? Perhaps lowering the read ahead value will have a better outcome with your card.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] jonup:
If what you are saying is correct, and I like your logic, can you go to doze and disable it for external card

Again, I'm not using mine as an internal card and I'm not having any issues with unmounting or anything for that matter so I can't be of any further help or the app in doze might be different for internally mounted storage
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Zeljko1234:
Thx for idea, will try and report back.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Fauert:
Hi [MENTION=4297659]adrianom[/MENTION] and fellows ! just flashed this Beauty on my aging v500, and what a surprise, NEW LIFE to my LG-Pad , thank`s a lot for your work !! I really enjoy it, thank`s again !! :D :good: :laugh:

Any chance for "Center Clock" ui and change the back button with Recent apps .... :angel:
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] takis:
The only problem for me is the ultra slow wifi connecting period... 10 secs to get wifi for some reason....:confused:
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Fauert:
Not here , on Wifi instantly .. :p Must be on your side ...
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] takis:
On which build?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Dukas:
Same SD issue here :(
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] tuntun2526:
Apart from my file manager not detecting SD CARD, everything seems to be fine. Thanks once again. NOW ON TAP is too good.

EDIT: Google Calendar not syncing too.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] fishears:
Excellent work bringing this up, thank you.

Not seen anyone mention Calendar sync but it doesn't seem to be included...
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] indian84:
Just noticed. But I can leave with it. ?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Mhden2x:
Is double tap to wake working guys like AOSP 5?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] indian84:
Yes.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] fishears:
It's good to have multi-window available on a non-stock rom. One of 6.0's nice hidden features.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] ckret:
how is sepolicy handled in the sources?

not at all?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] jonup:
FYI for those dirty flashing from 5.1.1:

Delete the phone app in 5.1.1 then reboot to recovery and do your thing.

I suspect the problem is in the 5.1.1 phone app because I had issues with it switching to AOSP 5.1.1 from other AOSP based 5.1.1 ROMs
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Thoms92:
I just flashed it. Awesome rom. First I tried a dirty flash from 5.1.1, but it said something about crashing android system, so I had to do a clean flash. It does some weird stuff during the setup though. It kept turning on an off my screen for some reason.

After those first hiccups, everything looks and works fine. Very nice rom and faster than lollipop imho.

Thank you very much for introducing android 6 to this tablet! :)
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Darkmasterhk:
send you a pm with 5 logs, 2 random reboots and 3 while charging.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] jonup:
If you have a nandroid on 5.1.1, just use tibu or file explorer and follow my instructions above to dirty flash
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Thoms92:
Thanks, I read your suggestion too late. For me it's no big deal to keep the data. Since I barely use the tablet, there isn't much to backup or restore :p Dirty flashes have a higher risk of being unstable anyway ;)
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] adrianom:
Ok, I will check, but was on Lollipop not on Marshmallow version, right? I'll update in the Lollipop thread.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Darkmasterhk:
yeah, i only posted here because i saw someone with the same problem, sorry^^
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] adrianom:
Indeed the Calendar Sync is missing, I remove the AOSP version and I forgot to add the google version, I will add in the next version.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] adrianom:
The device config is on permissive, but the kernel was update to the new selinux police version.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] jonup:
So far no reboots while charging with device on. Went from about 45% to full charge. Again I dirty flashed and that generally covers ROM issues so take it with a grain of salt

BTW, doze works like a charm.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] hptnhan:
I flash this rom after factory format then restore apps from google account. Every thing work great except can't access the external card. Thank you [MENTION=4297659]adrianom[/MENTION] for this super rom.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Damool:
Thank you so much [MENTION=4297659]adrianom[/MENTION] the rom is awesome, and doze is a real must have for tablets! Hope the SD issue can be fixed. You're making this tablet survive years on your own :) Oh and btw, any way to correct the gamma on this? Thanks !

Try going to Wi-Fi advanced settings and setting the Wi-Fi region to your location.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] takis:
How?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Deltadroid:
settings -> Wi-Fi -> advanced -> region
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] takis:
No such option
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] vladka:
thanx for idea, it helped me with external sd card unmounting issue
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] jonup:
You're welcome but credit goes to [MENTION=2559459]Zeljko1234[/MENTION]. He came up with the idea. I just followed his footsteps.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Saki3d:
Hi i don't have this option which verison are u using?

i have the latest version installed
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] EmanAm:
I have a problem that I don't know relates to this ROM or not.

Smart AudioBook Player cannot get the permission to write on SD Card. I connected to the developer and he had no idea what's going on underneath.

I must mention that ES File Explorer get the proper permission without a problem and can write on SD Card. Is there anything relates to this ROM that needs specific configuration or is there anything the developer should do to fix this issue?

Any help will be sincerely appreciated.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Deltadroid:
sorry, I guess this option is only available with cyanogenmod.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] jonup:
Since M Android doesn't automatically give permissions to apps. If the book app you are talking about is not M aware, it might not request the storage permission. Go to you app settings (settings>apps>select your app) click on permissions and make sure storage is enabled.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] EmanAm:
Thanks for respond.

It already has the permission to write on SD.

So maybe the problem relates to the app.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] andylong42:
Device no longer compatible with app

Hi,

Great ROM first of all!

I wanted to install an app from the Play Store (Football Manager Touch) which is the V500 is compatible with. Since installing this ROM, the device shows up in the install list on the web version of the Play Store as No Carried LGE-V500, but it says the device is incompatible. Is there a way to convince the Play Store that this is a stock V500? I tried an app called Market Place that gets it to show up as an nVidia Shield, but it still says incompatible.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Dynamatrix:
Try to download the apk from evozi and install the apk
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] andylong42:
It says you can't download paid apps with Evozi
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] luener:
ADB ist left out of every Marshmallow Build, learned it yesterday. Can´t post a link, just search for "marshmallow removes adb". Apps like apps2fire aren´t usable under marshmallow anymore.

[MENTION=4297659]adrianom[/MENTION]: thanks a lot for this build, it is very stable and reliable. Keep up the good work!
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Mhden2x:
Great ROM, would love to keep it, but I'm having random reboots about 3 times a day :(
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] takis:
Thats not the case with everyone else running the rom... CLEAN flash it again... [MENTION=4297659]adrianom[/MENTION] can you give me some help on the wifi...???? I switch it on and it needs 10 seconds to connect to the wifi...
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Mhden2x:
I wiped everything before flashing! And I'm not having any kind of problems with WiFi... Connects in seconds! LOL :eek:
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] jeuf37:
It is a MM issue for the wifi once you use the quick tiles
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] s1m4an:
Yeah, my GPad is the first device I own to upgrade to Marshmallow and I had a hunch the new security enforcements had something to do with adb binary going MIA.

It's not a big deal, it was convenient to connect to my firetsick through my GPad, now I will have to find another way.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] takis:
This dude is right!!!! It only happens when using the notification drawer tiles... Its instant when i switch it on from settings... [MENTION=4297659]adrianom[/MENTION] should be able to fix this
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Zeljko1234:
adb works just fine:

c:\Android Commander\bin>adb shell
root@v500:/ # ls
ls
acct
cache
charger
config
....
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] salomonld:
Thanks for all the hard work!!!!

Can anybody help with 2 questions?

Do i need to update the firmware before the rom install?, im in stock 4.4.2...

How is the battery with this ROM?

thanks again
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] jonup:
I get 4-5h sot over 2days with my usage, which is not comparable to yours or anyone else's. Which brings me to the main point about battery life - it's more dependent on each one's usage than any combination of ROMs and kernels. So the most useful info I can give you is that the ROMs doesn't have any issue with battery.

As far as installing the ROM, look in the forum how to install custom recovery aka twrp and then follow the instructions in OP
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Zeljko1234:
It has better battery life (standby) with doze than before on lp.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] salomonld:
Ill give a try, thanks

I know how to install a rom, my question is if i need something else of the rom, like the rqdio of the phones or something like that
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Zeljko1234:
If you already have custom recovery, make a backup and flash.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] s1m4an:
The adb binary within the rom is missing, it seems that Google has nixed it for Marshmallow.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Zeljko1234:
What do you mean by adb binary is missing within the rom? I clearly showed that adb is working just fine for me using latest Marshmallow available in this topic.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] s1m4an:
You're connecting to the tablet from Windows, which is fine.

The issue is, that pre Marshmallow, there was an adb executable you could run in an terminal shell on the tablet.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Zeljko1234:
Why you wish to run adb on the tablet?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] s1m4an:
Dude, you're dragging out an issue which was resolved a few posts ago.

Because pre marshmallow you could run it, the binary was there, and now it's not.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Zeljko1234:
Dude, you didn't answer my question you quoted ;)

Edit: Nevermind, found by my self.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] killerskincanoe:
Installed the latest build. gmail won't open. Just sits on the screen with the envelope. I removed the system app with TB and reinstalled. Still no joy. Inbox will do for now. But i prefer gmail.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] jonup:
It's on your end. Works fine here
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] sgauge:
I've been waiting too long for official Android 5, went out of patience and decided to have a try with this AOSP ROM. Upgraded TRWP to 2.8.6.0 from official rooted KK, flashed the ROM, wiped cache & dalvik. First boot didn't work, so went back to TWRP and wiped data. This made the trick.

However I had a very tough time getting root again, and I couldn't get into TWRP anymore.... I finally managed to achieve a partial root with Kingo Root (PC version) and my tablet in download mode. Then got back to TWRP and flashed SuperSU 2.52 beta. Hope this can help anyone in the same situation !

Now everything works smoothly : wifi, gmail, etc... Thanks again for the hard work ! :good:
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] indian84:
Dude. A suggestion. Clean flash the ROM and SuperSU, if you can. Kingoroot has given issues to a lot of people including me.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] killerskincanoe:
You right.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] dbux:
Changing the min. brightness.

I would like to change the minimum brightness in this ROM. I can't find the attribute for it in the buld.prop . Any Idea how to do this in this ROM?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Edwin184:
Very stable ROM and for the first time my LG runs issue free and responds fast. Thanks a lot.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] aicjofs:
I know we were sticking close to AOSP here. Thoughts on this?

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_system_vold/commit/fa407a012666a1a6d5b05743ca61114819a685f9

When I last tried this ROM you are unable to mount exfat formatted cards, this should fix that.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] magnum73:
A couple of questions...

I have now version 5.01 official build. Can i dirty flash this rom ?

And how about the storage of the sd? Does it sees the microsd and internal storage as one ? Do i still need foldermount to transfer my games ? And do i have to reformat the microsd in andtoid 6.0? And i dont need to flash gapps and supersu ?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] indian84:
You have to clean flash. SD card will give you option to use it as internal memory or external card. You have to flash super su but no need to flash gappa.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Stefano2991:
No more update? :(
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] dirlan2001:
Why would you need an update ? This ROM runs like hell, no issues, fast, stable etc ...

Besides, eventual updates only comes with updates from AOSP-source. If Google doesn't release anything, developers cannot work on it.

Cheers
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Stefano2991:
For example for fixing camera issue or improve general performance
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] cianz94:
...and the issue in the luminosity sensor ???

Inviato dal mio LG-V500 utilizzando Tapatalk
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] dirlan2001:
LOL

The Google camera is of a different make as the original LG... Try then some camera-app fom the PlayStore. Same goes for the lumi-sensor : not included in the AOSP. If you guy's are in desperate need for these 'gimmicks' , get back to the original LG-soft.

And , BTW, in returning to stock LG, you'll notice a huge performance-slowdown by the LG-bloat

Cheerrrrrs
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] jonup:
Are you referring to ambient light sensor? I have no issue with it. It works the same way on my nexus. It's not perfectly smooth but I guess that's how it works on M

My camera worked like a charm the few times I tested it after people complaining about it and performance on this ROM is as good as any ROM I've tried. Besides the goal of this ROM is not to be tweaked as much as humanly possible. It's simply pure aosp ROM ported to our device. It there are no updates to aosp, don't expect updates. So Dec security patch is supposed to be pushed soon along with 6.0.1. I wouldn't expect update any sooner.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] magnum73:
Clean flash...what exactly do I have to wipe with twrp ?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] dirlan2001:
Yep, correct. As with the camera etc : it's depending on drivers developed by LG, not included in the AOSP... If these guy's need all the bling-bling, they should return to stock-and-bloat. Amen

I did so myself, as with the removal of the phone-tools, the contacts-list also disappeared. A quick run to the GApps-store of DeltaDroid and the problem was gone...

Cheers

---------- Post added at 07:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:25 PM ----------

Just a normal complete wipe, you'll lose everything not on your ext SD. So better make a full backup before :)

Cheers
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] magnum73:
Thanks for the answer...but not wipe system I presume ?

P's. This is my first flash...I have to be sure ;)
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] indian84:
Wipe everything except internal storage and SD card. Including storage.

---------- Post added at 09:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:47 PM ----------

Sorry. Including system. Not storage.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] luigidk:
Can I use this on my V510 - GPE version of G Pad 8.3 ?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] jonup:
Nope. But it shouldn't be too hard to port.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] luigidk:
No idea how to do that ?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] dirlan2001:
Hmmmm ;( seems not a very popular tablet... even CM hasn't got a Marshmallow in store for your device. Wonder what the differences are exactly.

Cheers
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] magnum73:
Hi, if I connect it to the pc for filestransfers, I don't see the tablet. Only in modus for pictures ,the device shows up....? I tried different cables and usb ports...
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] dirlan2001:
High :)

Connection depends largely on what OS your PC runs,what drivers you have installed etc... The theory says, when you connect via USB, an indicator will show up in the topbar giving the chance to activate whatever kind of USB-usage you want/need. If no drivers are installed/available the connection normally defaults to MPT (MediaPictureTransfert).

My machine is running Mint 17.2 Xfce, no drivers available, so I get a standard overview of the device in Thunar as an external drive.

Cheers
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] magnum73:
But I get nothing when I connect...no indicater or nothing in mtp modus...only in foto/picture modus but than I cannot transfer files on the sdcard ? Do I have to install drivers for android 6 ? Im on windows 10.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] indian84:
Pull down the notification drawer and change USB Mode to MTP.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] magnum73:
I did that ....but the device didn't showed up. Only in picture modus it pops up....?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] kaosb0x:
Same problem here, clearly if we flash roms we know what MTP is... If i had to venture a guess i'd say the sd card problem, and that are linked....as im having both, also upon boot i get force close, but hey marshmallow on a GeeTab ftw, everything else is fluid loving the rom :)
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] magnum73:
Does anybody know how I can edit the soft navigation buttons. I want a menu button...or edit the functions...?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] indian84:
Not possible. This is AOSP.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] magnum73:
And with 3rd party apps ?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] indian84:
I'm sure xposed can do it. Not sure how. It's been long since I used Xposed. Google it. But be careful with it. You may need to clean flash your ROM if anything goes wrong. Have a copy of ROM and SuperSU on your device.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] kaosb0x:
I do not understand like this Indian84 guy, why someone would post a reply that is 100% useless, seems to be a problem on xda and this guy has done it a few times on here ive noticed, now im going to help you get xposed, xgelz, busybox, and yes, it works with AOSP as im running it atm on my geepad on latest version of this rom, here is what youll need. im using xposed release 78, i installed busybox pro(however u dont need pro), then i install xgelz, then layers manager...there is a layer called "navigate" and there ya go, navigate is a great little soft button app ,with tons of options. :) sorry ya had to read peoples mess before someone helped, it happens quite often lol
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] dirlan2001:
Ah ok, so if one doesn't use the same software as you are, he's useless ?

I wonder what you guy's would do the day XDA shuts down. It's because of whining kids like you, the elder quit. Patience, Google Search and, most important : think for yourself... Besides, the indian gave the most perfect answer on the question. And in doubt, compare your 'record' to his...

Cheers
