Guys, I already have nexus 6 and I know android 7 has been released, what I mean is when android 7 will be released for LG G PAD 8.3, now we are using android 6.0.1 which is awesome but if [MENTION=4297659]adrianom[/MENTION] can make for LG G PAD 8.3 it will be awesome.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] indian84:
Let me put this in simple words.

Do Not Ask for ETA. It's considered rude to the developer.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] montaseromer:
Ok, thanks for clarification, sorry for for asking, however he is already said before he will make it soon ?.

I was using cm13 and decided to try this one, did a clean install, used titanium to recover some apps. It's very smooth, but the wifi is freezeing constantly, it doesn't drop the connection, but it is not connected to the internet constantly. =(
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] mpxinside:
No changes about audio issue on clean flash. Can anybody check this?

EDIT: No headphones icon when insert (It could be related?)

I'm not sure i agree with below average battery life. Standby time is incredible. My tab lasts a week or more without charging if I don't touch it. And I regularly get 5-6 SOT on a single charge. Better than my OPO

[MENTION=4297659]adrianom[/MENTION] Thx a lot! We don't mind to test the early builds. Who needs camera or GPS on the tablet. Ok audio would be nice to have :D
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] MightyBen:
have audio issues too. The previous release was a clean install. The current release was just flashed over the existing. I am using AllStream to stream to my Airplay device which works via Google Music. Most likely because of a different audio route. Speakers and headphones do not work.

I attached some logs and noticed in there:

E audio_hw_primary: start_output_stream: cannot set hw params: Invalid argument

Bluetooth speakers works fine but no sound on speakers and heaphones. Thats the problem. What was the last version that the sound works?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Edwin184:
Never expected this to happen so indeed great news. Very willing to test too if WiFi works.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] dirlan2001:
I do... using this tab on the job, I need GPS and certainly a working camera. And no, I can't afford a newer device. Sound is disabled, no use for it at work. If I want noise, I open a window....

Cheers

Still have this problem on final release 09.17

I did clean install

Brightness fluctuation & no sound in Google play music ( built-in speakers)
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] gilzve:
Thanks Andrianom for the great work. My G Pad 8.3 went from your 5.1 to 6.0.1 flawlessly.

Impressive how the G Pad is smooth with this ROM (2016 August 04 version). :)
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Zeljko1234:
You didn't get my point. I've just suggested to adrianom to post unfinished build if someone want to test it and if requested report bugs, logs, etc. Nobody is forcing you to upgrade ;)
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] WVlad:
I have no sound in Google Play Music too
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Laibit:
Hi.

After installing this ROM I lost the root access and the TWRP custom recovery. How do I root it again? Can I use the same method that I used for the LG original android version (kitkat)? I guess not... :)

Thanks.

[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Arzka:
Hi!

In your situation, I would install One Click Root to root my device. Then I would install Flashify or equivalent app to flash TWRP recovery .img file from their website and flash SuperSU or just leave the one click root as it is.

I hope that helps! :)
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] sepehr.alibakhshi.:
It's looking like i am only one who have this problem, some times brightness is unstable and it is lower than real 100% , i really like to use this rom , but i need high brightness when I go outdoor

I try official cm12.1 , brightness work correctly but back camera don't work
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] edsmat:
One click root not working
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] jeremywh7:
The ROM doesn't include root so you have to flash SuperSU (system) after flashing the ROM, as per the first thread (system SuperSU is linked there). What do you mean that you lost TWRP? I'm guessing you mean the ability to easily reboot into it from the ROM, e.g. via Rashr, as it requires root.

Boot into recovery from off state by:

1. hold Power and Vol-down

2. as soon as you see the LG splash, release Power for a fraction of a second then reapply simultaneously with Vol-up

Note that Vol-down is held throughout this process.

3. you'll get a message to hit a button to enter factory reset; let go of the buttons

4. hit a button to get you into recovery; it does not factory reset (with TWRP installed)

This sounds ridiculous, and it is, but its the only way.

To summarize; these are the buttons states:

1. Start; power is off, no buttons held

2. Power + Vol-down

3. LG splash shows; immediately do (keep) "Vol-down" only, then quickly to "Power + Vol-up + Vol-down"

4. "Factory Reset" splash shows; let go of buttons

5. Hit a button to enter TWRP
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] nilssongrey:
Absolute easiest way is to open Terminal emulator and type: reboot recovery and hit enter.

[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Laibit:

When I saw the factory reset message I thought that TWRP was gone :) But it was not. The instructions you provided worked fine.

Thank you!

[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Zeljko1234:
Yes, if you can boot the rom. If it's bootlooping or not booting at all, combination with buttons is the (only) way ;)

No Sound with AOSP marshmallow 2016-09-11 or 2016-09-17

This rom works fine but you already know that. great works from this developper.

Micro SD works only in fat32 (no extFat, no NTFS): minor problem

No sound with Google play music, Appolo music player, and some other music player that work the same handle.

Mx player works fine : Sound ok on movies and it can be used as mp3 music player (sound ok) but not very convenient (no widget) . the important point is that it uses its own codec and it works.

Does the 2016-09-17 version correct the sound bug ? (Edit : no change : no sound with 2016-09-17 version)

Edit :

will try to test those alternative music player (wich not use default android sound engine):

1. jetAudio Plus ==> Sound OK (tested)

2. ONKYO HiFi Player ==> Sound OK (tested)

4. Radsone DCT

5. Neutron Music Player

6. N7P

7. Soundbest Lite

8. Denon Club

9. JBL
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] engelhro:
I installed 2016-09-17 yesterday (coming from an older official build, i.e. an LG ROM), and have no sound issues (tested only with Google Play music, but it's definitely music coming out of the speaker :)). So give it a try…
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] mpxinside:
Did you do a clean flash? I have sound issue from a clean flash (last and previuos release aosp rom)
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] engelhro:
Yes, I did perform a clean flash…

But I have to take back my statement: I now discovered sound issues too :(. Some songs work in Google Music, but not all, and some only by jumping somewhere into them instead of playing them from the start. And my podcast player app also remained silent until I switched from the "default (system internal) player" to another one it has integrated.

So something seems indeed faulty regarding the sound in this ROM! Hopefully this can be fixed with one of the next releases.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] mpxinside:
Yes. I think that some audio formats works like ogg, however mp3 files isn't it
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] ydhainaut:
Yes it was a clean flash (format data & system partition, wipe dalvik cache ..).

i will try this evening 2016-07-17 version, thanks

Edit : no change : always sound problem with Google music and other music player which use default android sound engine.

(installation from previous AOSP version, Wipe cache & Wipe Dalvik cache)
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] ledabe974:
I made a clean flash with the first release in october 2015, and never since.

Everything works well since that day.

My next clean flash will be for nougat when it will be ready, no rush.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] mpxinside:
Si did you do a clean flash with the first release and dirty flash until the last release?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] ledabe974:
That's what I say.

Dirty flash at every release and all it's working great.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Stefano2991:

How difficult would it be to get this ROM running on the V-510/Google Play Edition? What would need to be changed? (Sorry if this seems like a stupid question)
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] hordarian:
2015-11-04 fixes the display perfectly :) Many thanks as always.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] adrianom:
I agree, the first versions were more "raw", now there is the possibility to tweaking these things.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] adrianom:
This is a common problem with the AOSP r26 release, Google created a new branch which is probably specific for the new nexus devices (5x and 6p), because is generate problems on other devices (not just ours), including the microphone problem, I'm coming back to the default release branch, and should fix these problems.

First, thank you adrianom for the excellent ROM. I searched the thread and did not see if anyone had tried RRO Layers, so I tried it and it works. Install Busy Box and Layers Manager and a theme that has been updated to Marshmallow. I'm using Magpie and navigate. Enjoy.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] adrianom:
To me cast screen to Chromecast is working fine, what is happening to you?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] adrianom:
AOSP has a very limited file system support, maybe your sd is formatted in a non support format, is better to reformat from android it self.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] nemolivier:
It's what I've donne three times now : following the process from android M that format my SD. The first time I need to reformat was after the lass update, I thought it was "logical" but yesterday morning I can access it, the evening I had the notification about the need of configuring the SD ?

[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] mistersixt:
Same thing here, happened twice now in 3 days, so something isn't working properly with SD cards yes.

The rest is pretty stable already, no reboots or something, thanks for the ROM!
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] GXGOW:
I'm also having problems with my SD card. I've formatted it als internal storage (which is a pretty awesome Marshmallow feature btw), but it unmounts 9/10 times when the device goes to sleep. Mostly, when it unmounts, the device performs a soft/hard reboot, so I mostly find my device doing a reboot when I leave it lying somewhere for some time.

Anyone else having this issue?

Sent from my OPO running Sultanxda's CM 12.1
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] indian84:
I also formated it as internal storage. No issues. The only thing is all the data stored on the card was lost.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] firiel:
Had similar issues, on sleep disconnections but It worked back again after I went to settings\storage & usb to what's going on. No restarts at all

Today I had none.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Stefano2991:
with the last release i have some battery drop but seems nothing of worrying
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Cluey:
I've not had any problems with my SD card. It was already formatted as FAT32 and had lots of random ROM's on it.

I'm still running the second release if that makes any difference, I read about the microphone bug with the third and hadn't had any trouble with the second so didn't upgrade.

When it came up asking what I wanted to do with it I just chose to use it as it was, external storage I think?

Either way I just thought I'd add some other input, all too often the only reports are when something doesn't work.

You've got to admire a dirty flasher :D

Google's OTAs for devices that support it are the equivalent of a dirty flash and 7.0 is as painless as the regular monthly security updates, so you may want to dirty flash nougat when it's ready. I will only do a clean flash if any problems arise...
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] ledabe974:
I make a nandroid backup before each dirty flash.

If there's any problem, I can go back and make a clean flash if needed.

Same. There have been a few bumps along the way, but they have been rom bugs related and no dirty flash related.

If you have close friends who are top developers they'll tell you that you don't ever need clean flash unless for testing experimental stuff. Very few will say it in public because so many complaints are user error related that clean flash sorts them out.

Hello,

About the audio problem that some people are having in certain applications, I will check, I did not notice this problem, but it may be something specific to this apps.

[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] platypied50:
I've scanned the posts here to locate when discussions of the audio problems began, and there is really no mention of it until mid-September. Does anyone know for sure at which build it started? I'd like to flash a build right before it began (if there was one). Thanks in advance.

[Edit]: I took a guess on the 8/4/16 version and it appears I have it right. So far, I have audio working. Unfortunately, to downgrade from Nougat I found I had to factory reset. It kept getting caught in a bootloop involving force closing of acore and a few other Google service apps. Wiping system and caches ahead of time wasn't enough. I assume the problem with the 8/4 version is a YouTube bug. Is that right?

Changelog - 2016-10-18:

Update to Android 6.0.1 Release 70 (MOB31H)

Fix audio output problem in specific apps
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] engelhro:
Thanks for the update! Unfortunately the problem is not solved, at least for me (disclosure: I only tried a dirty flash, as I currently don't want to perform a clean flash): as described before, I have no music playing for several songs in Google Music, and also not in my podcast player (at least via the default Android player, the experimental player built into my podcast app works).

Can someone test whether a clean install (after full wipe) indeed works? Otherwise the issue is apparently not fixed yet…
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] indian84:
Go for Nougat. The issue if 100% fixed on that.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] uzi2:
Agreed.. and you can successfully update dirty - just wipe system then flash ROM, Gapps (Pico for me) and SU (make sure you use a System mode version or 2.52 or earlier).
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] engelhro:
Thanks (to both, also [MENTION=4570506]indian84[/MENTION])! I was a bit reluctant to switch to the Nougat ROM yet (and would've never considered doing that dirty, I would've chosen a clean flash), but it worked almost flawless. And yes, the sound issue is fixed there! Hooray! :)

Of course this doesn't solve the problem per se, and people who (for whatever reason) want to stay on Marshmallow don't have that option, so I still think the issue should also be resolved on this ROM (aka the 6.0.1 version) as well – as [MENTION=4297659]adrianom[/MENTION] was able to fix it on Nougat, he'll most probably be able to tackle it here also.

Thanks again and kind regards!

PS: The only problem with the approach above was that I had several Google apps installed after the upgrade (e.g. Google app/search, Google calendar, and a few more) which are not part of the Pico variant of OpenGApps. Where did they come from? Are they contained in the ROM itself? I was able to remove them, but I was still wondering. Besides that, Android 7.0 is running perfectly on our beloved tablet, everything smooth and I haven't found any glitches so far… Very impressed!
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] uzi2:
The fact that this ROM is being updated shows that [MENTION=4297659]adrianom[/MENTION] is applying the fixes here as well. Your experience suggests that there is more to be done.

The unexpected Google apps will come from your Data partition, which was not wiped. Either they have been downloaded from Google Play at some time or have had significant updates along the way. Keep what you need and delete the rest. No worries.

Welcome to Nougat :)
