[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Thibor69:
I would like to completely wipe my phone and re-flash. Of course I am already rooted and running a custom ROM. My question is, is it safe to boot into TWRP and do a nandroid backup to my USB-Drive (OTG). Then do a system reset and ALSO FORMAT DATA so all is gone. Then can I flash from my USB by mounting it in TWRP and flash my ROM from the USB drive since the internal memory will be wiped clean.

So basically this:

1. Boot to TWRP

2. Mount USB

3. Backup to USB

4. Factory Reset Wipe ALL Dalvik Cache / Cache / Data / Internal Storage / System

5. Format DATA ( i.e. ..data/media )

6. Flash ROM ( from USB )

7. Reboot

*** UPDATE - I just tried the above and found out it wont work. When I try to backup to the USB from within TWRP, it gives an ERROR it wont create the folder on the USB.

Could someone PLEASE help me figure out how to completely erase my internal memory/storage and then be able to FLASH a new ROM from USB via TWRP. My USB is all set and mounted and the ROM is there. Basically my concern is I want to do a nandroid backup first but since I am wiping DATA and all internal, I dont want to wipe the backup also ...

Thanks for info.

Hey gang,

I'm on a rooted Tmobile variant and I just recently noticed I don't have the Quick Memo app. It seems like it's called something else now but basically the same thing. I've not done anything other than rooting. I froze some apps but I went back into Titanium Backup just to be sure anything that could even remotely have disabled the app was defrosted. I found (what appears to be) the app in the system. I installed it via the apk... Checked the permissions etc. It just doesn't seem to be workin. I know it was before I rooted it last week..... Weird... Any thoughts on this?

Anyone had the same issue?

Hello XDA!

After following a guide to upgrade my Radio/Modem from galaxys4root i somehow ended up with a tablet instead of a phone, lol.

I don't rememeber which was my baseband version before changing my baseband to MJA, but right now i can't make calls (black screen and frezzes for 10-20 seconds), no audio (music player stops).

My device is

SPH-L720

With Android Version

4.4.2

Baseband Version: (current)

L720VPUEMJA

Running Cyanogenmod 11

After this big fat mess, i tried following a guide to upgrade to MF9 (aparently the latest one)... Which basically made my device unable to boot into anything but Download mode. The device would automatically jump into a Firmware error and asked me to fix it with kies (which didn't work.)

I ended up using heimdall to reflash clockwork recovery and restore my CM11 backup but i still can't make calls or listen to music. So i would like to know if there's anything i can do... Because honestly i'm not even sure if the baseband/radio thing is the problem.

Thanks for reading <3

Hold volume down and power ---wait for LG LOGO.

Then let the buttons go and FAST ->

hold them again

<- FAST

Confirm 2 x YES when it asks to wipe. (note..you will lose data..)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Shawn89:
Hi,

I bought a S6 on craigslist, I have the samsung account username and password of the previous owner, it allows me to factory reset. No matter what I do after whether remove the account and hard reset, the reactivation lock comes back every time. After I remove the samsung account, it wont let me add a new samsung account, I click it and it goes no where. I go into Find My Mobile and I can uncheck remote control, google location service, but when i go to switch reactivation lock to off it prompts for password, I put it in, it accepts it, and then remains enabled no matter what. Any ideas?

Thanks Sonof,

Great to see someone starting to get this going. Two things.

2. I wouldn't mind helping out where i can, definitely not the most expert but i do have a couple others that are more knowledgeable and they have the v10 as well. so between the 4 of us, i think we can help you out. If interested and want us, just shoot me a PM and can try and help as well

Thanks again,

haven't tested a rom before but this is my first LG phone would defently like to gave a go at testing a rom out. i did notice they have much less stock apps than samsung and the rom is much smaller. i'm comming from a note four so to see the phone boot with only two screens worth of apps i was lost for a second thinking something was missing lol. PM me or just add a link here i will down load and test it out.

Do you have a booting base?
[LG V10 Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Still working out what can and can't be removed without breaking the hell out of the phone. some stuff that seems completely unrelated causes second screen to constantly FC when it's removed. I've made good progress though, and I plan on sending out the first beta invites tonight.
[LG V10 Android Development] contradude:
I'm in as well, if you still need testers
[LG V10 Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Uploading the first Beta now. If you PM'd me your interest, look for a response with instructions and a link in the next hour or so. Again, please be aware this is not a full featured rom yet, this is just a base with as much removed as i can manage without breaking the basic functionality. Once I get the base stable I'll start working on getting a full aroma installer put together with options for things like browser, launcher, email, bootanimations, etc. I'm looking forward to seeing how you guys can break it while I continue trying to strip out more fluff for Beta 2.
[LG V10 Android Development] ZDeuce2:
Yes, you will have to find and flash or install the second screen fixes. And there are only two apps on it, play and search... I pm'd you...
[LG V10 Android Development] RiffyDivine:
Aren't the fixes just in the main post on here or are there more I need to find? I am going to go flash this now anyway because I am assuming the ****ty battery life I am getting is from a lot of this pre installed bull**** on here.
[LG V10 Android Development] ZDeuce2:
You will still have to find the second screen fixes, I can't remember where they were. (only if you are using xposed)
[LG V10 Android Development] DarkPhoenix:
Is there an option to use wifi calling or has that been removed?
[LG V10 Android Development] ZDeuce2:
WiFi calling is there, but it will not work on this rom if you flash xposed.

Just wondering how this rom is coming along and if there's any updates planned for the near future. I don't currently own a V 10, but it will most likely be the phone I get when I upgrade.
[LG V10 Android Development] jwmcfadden1:
Hasn't been much new development for awhile. Sadly, I think we're going to fall through the cracks because by the time the Marshmallow update cones through, most of the developers will have moved on to best devices. Here's to hoping though.

Will download and test. ?
[LG V10 Android Development] falseman:
will be there any updates to this rom?

Its so weird, nobody makes roms for this mobile..!?

i wuld like to have the cyanogen mod for this but he has bugs which i dont like, like the fingerprint doesnt work.

This wuld be the ultimate clean rom tho but it isnt updated since months!

The galaxy's have always dozens of roms why not this awesome smartphone, the best overall smartphone tho!
[LG V10 Android Development] ZDeuce2:
There are more rooms that are still active... The phone doesn't get much development because until a few weeks ago, TMobile was the only version that had root, and most still have locked bootloaders. So no roms...

Look at the new galaxies in the US... Absolutely no development... Locked bootloaders. If you want a rom that bad, you could build one...

Common sense isn't all that common

[LG V10 Android Development] akijione:
I installed the rom through twrp, first did a backup to my micro sd card, then did a complete wipe and format. The rom install went smoothly. Setup was also smooth, radios working fine. The only bugs so far, security and fingerprint setup keeps crashing when trying to setup both. I thought that may be from some of the LG apps missing, so I installed them, still same problem. I ended up reinstalling my backup. Will try again as rom develops. Rom was really fast without all the extra apps and bloat installed.
[LG V10 Android Development] sabresfan:
Are you on MM or LP. Could possibly explain the crashes.
[LG V10 Android Development] akijione:
An important fact I left out, I was using MM before I wiped, formated and installed the rom.
[LG V10 Android Development] sabresfan:
I'm on MM and installed this rom. I get the same force closures. I restored my apps with an update.zip from titanium backup. I've even got evil gummy kernel installed. I'm not able to uninstall any apps just freeze them with tibu. This is a fun project.
[LG V10 Android Development] akijione:
The crashes I experienced, couldn't open fingerprints & security, couldn't select a screen lock from the lock screen menu. When I attempted any of those options, the settings menu would force close, and take me back to my home screen. I didn't experience a reboot or the phone locking. Again I was using MM before I installed the rom. Overall, I really like everything else about the rom. Really fast.
[LG V10 Android Development] sabresfan:
I've managed to install apks now. Xposed and tibu to the rescue. On MM rom download xposed module direct apk install. Backup with tibu and add to update.zip. Then flash on LP rom of choice. This is how I was able to install G4 tweaksbox on this rom. It would force close every time before. This rom is fast and super debloated.
[LG V10 Android Development] betoNL:
Great

Eventhough I have the european H969A, I flashed this rom anyway....actually I flashed a couple of roms voor the H901...why? That's a long story..

Your rom is very fluid, enjoying it so far...the issues I am having, I had with the other roms too, including the stock H901 LP ( zip , flashed from recovery) : video camera is broken, process com.android settings force closes so I can't get to fingerprint & security in settings and as I already said , it is happening because my phone is a H960A.

Do you think you could build a custom rom for the H960A also? I would be glad to test it....and it would be a huge success since there is almost nothing happening besides stuff for the H901, I mean, hardly any development for the european models..

Maybe more donations will come.... certainly from my part ...

Anyway, congrats for this great rom

Well you won't see it from me. I helped build Cyanogenmod for the Ouya, and that was a crazy pain. plus, when it comes to phones, I really just prefer the extra touches you get with a manufacturer built os. I find AOSP lacking, that's why I gave up the nexus 5 for a note 3, and haven't looked at another nexus until the 6p.

thank you so much for hitting things off. I was just wondering if it would be possible to have all audio go through the DAC and AMP instead of it being a stock player exclusive?
[LG V10 Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Appreciate the feedback guys. For those missing some built in apps, I suggest you go shed and restore your backup if you can't find a market alternative that will suffice. I'm still working on slimming the base so I can start off as clean as possible. Eventually you'll have the option to add back as much of the stock rom as you like, but it will provably be at least a week or two before this resembles a full rom.

As for mods like using the dac for all audio, I'm still a long way from looking into anything like that, so your best bet is to ask some of the modders on here to look at that and I'll be happy to integrate any successful patch into my Rom.

Just make a back up in twrp that way you can restore just how you like. Dont really recommend making backups of apps with tibu or others as it can bring stuff that could mess it. Up. Always recommend a clean fresh install that way eliminates possibility that your issue is from a restore.

You can get apk extractor from play store and this will pull the apk that want and save it so you can just click on it and install instead of downloading again. And save time

To all my beta testers, thank you so much for your feedback, it's good to know it seems that only expected issues are being reported. Beta 2 is up now, check the download folder in the original PM I sent you. I have trimmed some more fluff, as well as some stock apps out of this one, and added nova launcher and a bootanimation outside of the system.img, so that i can use this img as the base for the future full version Rom.

Please let me know if any issues arise with this new version, as I intend to start building the aroma installer with all the options on this base if all reports are good.

For anyone who has PMd me and hasn't gotten a response, please forgive the delay, I wanted to get version 2 finished and uploaded before I sent of round 2 of invites, so watch your inbox this afternoon.

Again, THANK YOU to everyone who has provided feedback, suggestions, and help in this process. I hope the final product is everything you want in a custom ROM.

I put together a flashable zip that puts the files back in the ROM. It's in the folder now. The problem is that when you just try to install the app it goes to /data/app, but these are system apps that run from the /system/priv-app folder. This phone is also deodexed, with each app being stored in a folder and the .odex in a sub folder, the installer includes these odex files and retains the original folder structure. It also includes the music widget, and the second screen music controls.

Let me know how it works for you, it is fine on my phone.
