None of the nightlies have Snap yet. You'll notice the status on the patch link I posted says "Needs Code Review". When it transitions to "Merged" then that means it's been pushed forward to the main builds.

I'm building exactly what CM-13.0 would be using, so when we do start getting Snap built in directly, it'll be at least as new, if not newer, than the builds I've posted.

The builds should work on any CM-13.0 for the G2 (and, as I've been told on PM, for the G3 as well). I'm currently using a Snap build of 2016-01-09 on a CM nightly for 2016-01-06. I don't like updating my rom quite so often.
[G2 Original Android Development] ansontyl96:
Cheers mate, i love the material version so much!!
[G2 Original Android Development] migueldbr:
Does this snap camera offer better pictures? Because when i used it on cm12.1 i really didnt see any noticeable difference...The only one i noticed had better quality was the ported lg camera from stock(on the G2 themes section)
[G2 Original Android Development] ukguy115:
Camera seems to function fine for me. Can't decide if I like the nav buttons hidden or not. Also took a picture, went to preview, swiped down to delete, back to camera, still had thumbnail in the little circle, hit the circle and said it couldn't find picture. Overall responsiveness is very nice on my end, pictures focus and snap pretty fast for me.
[G2 Original Android Development] Henryy97:
Lol, honestly it is the most stable camera I've used so far. I've taken a bunch of pictures and the speed is fast. The pictures look great. No problems at all. Records video properly. Can't complain.. :good:

Looks in the next nightly a commit that may fix network mode change .

Commit "

[G2 Original Android Development] marn3us:
[MENTION=2096805]dr4stic[/MENTION]: flashed your .zip (the material one) and it works great!!

Fast shutter, overall nice pics (ofc they are not like LG's stock but better than aosp) and great responsiveness! Only missing feature from the Snap Camera i was using before is manual shutter speed control (extremely useful when shooting in low light).

I have found a very small bug: if I launch your snap camera from the lockscreen, it FC'es and then keeps on FCing until I force stop and clear all app data

Thanks!! :)
[G2 Original Android Development] ansontyl96:
No such problem in my D802, I am currently on the latest cm13 build with open gapps
[G2 Original Android Development] migueldbr:
Can you post a sample picture using the snap camera please?
[G2 Original Android Development] dr4stic:
It's not a great picture... It's a bad picture in fact, I didn't bother to focus properly. Really I'm just proud of my sandwich ;)
[G2 Original Android Development] migueldbr:
seems quite good, thanks!
[G2 Original Android Development] PtSp:
Perdon me mates.. But upgrading or updating a rom without a proper battery lifespan its a waste of time... agree?
[G2 Original Android Development] dr4stic:
No. And this is not the place for such posts. This would go better in the "General" discussion.
[G2 Original Android Development] PtSp:
Ofc it is.. I'm saying that this rom is not good as intended. This specific rom. Cm13. Cm group need to focus on this matter.. Soc governor energy management
[G2 Original Android Development] dr4stic:
You should be a little more detailed in your posts. It sounded as though you said that porting ROMs to this device are a waste of time because the lifespan of the physical battery on a 2+ yr old device is mostly gone.

There are many with G2's who have achieved great battery life (most measure it in screen on time) with both CM-12.1 and CM-13.0. I regularly see fantastic daily battery life, and the new "doze" technology from google has made that even better.

That all being said, it's not for you to question the point of a port. The point is progress. Despite the few bugs here and there, this port is very stable and works very well. A device that is no longer supported by it's OEM has received an unbloated version of Marshmallow. In some cases, even devices that stopped receiving support at KitKat have gained support for Marshmallow (I think that's the 803/805/806).

CM-13.0 will not be as stable as CM-12.1, but most people using it are just fine with that for the added benefits of being on a newer version of Android. As for the CM devs, they have basically put this device into basic maintenance mode. For a device past the 2 yr mark that's understandable. There are newer and shinier things to play with out there. That doesn't make the CM-13.0 release any less amazing, and I am grateful for it especially since we were among the first devices to receive it.

6.0.1 will rollout for g2 from lg. Just be patients.
[G2 Original Android Development] ukguy115:
I replaced my battery recently, its doable but you have to pry it out of there.
[G2 Original Android Development] migueldbr:
Absolutely wrong. I have managed to get 6 hours of screen time(and a much smoother UI compared to stock lg) and about the same on stock rom, same conditions. Performance is better on cm roms also. The only thing that cm has no chance compared to stock is the camera quality. Even audio can become very good after some adjustments.
[G2 Original Android Development] PtSp:
With stock i get 7h 5.0.2 so?
[G2 Original Android Development] goast:
So? So what? What's your point?
[G2 Original Android Development] PtSp:
My point is.. Stock rom remains better on that matter even with the bad memory management from lollipop.
[G2 Original Android Development] migueldbr:
That proves nothing, you also have guys with cm that get 8h. It depends on the usage. If you dont like it just don't use it and stop saying nonsense
[G2 Original Android Development] PtSp:
I'm not trying to prove anything.. Are u trying to start a war out of my opinion? I'm saying for my use the rom doesn't fit.
[G2 Original Android Development] goast:
And that's for you. Then cm will miss you terribly... Said... No.... One..... Ever

That's your opinion and these are like buttholes we all have one.
[G2 Original Android Development] dr4stic:
Alright, everyone, please stop. Enough of this.

You, [MENTION=6817269]PtSp[/MENTION], clearly you don't care for CM. I'll kindly ask you to stop posting here. Your posts are NOT relevant to development discussion. If you want to stir up trouble, please do it somewhere else. Don't argue with me, I intend this to be my last response to you and my last post on this matter.

I ask everyone else to please ignore this person. The last thing I want is a moderator to come through because of him and reprimand everyone. It isn't worth it.

Thank you all.
[G2 Original Android Development] migueldbr:
I'm not trying to start a war, you were the one who said cm needed to improve battery and soc management. It is one thing to say "I don't like this rom because I have bad battery life" but it's a whole other thing to say "cm needs to improve battery because the rom is not as intended" or whatever you said just because it does not fit your use lol can't you see that??

No more replies from me anyway
[G2 Original Android Development] goast:
You're right man my bad
[G2 Original Android Development] PtSp:
Drastic don't be so dramatic. Lol obviously you have some complex.. U better ignore because i won't be arguing with fanboys, pointless.

Keep the work on it. Love
[G2 Original Android Development] goast:
Dude.... Leave! Go find another bridge to troll
[G2 Original Android Development] Treboeth:
My experiences WRT battery life are Cm13 ROMs are very good on WiFi SOT can be as high as 8hrs for internet/video.

On data 5hours is achievable.

Grateful to all the CM guys for keeping an "old phone" up to date. G2 is still better than a lot of flagship devices IMO.

HDR not working here as well unfortunately...

I am on 20160701 nightly and using [MENTION=2096805]dr4stic[/MENTION]'s Snap Camera (material one), I'm not sure why HDR doesn't work on Official CM tho
[G2 Original Android Development] migueldbr:
just flashed this rom, still cant choose network mode btw.

[MENTION=2096805]dr4stic[/MENTION] thanks a lot for the snap camera, its much better in low light conditions than cm stock camera on my phone
[G2 Original Android Development] dr4stic:
I did notice, curiously, that the HDR shots were happening rather quickly. They might be working on stabilizing first. Usually they just try to replace existing features when changing a package, and since the AOSP camera didn't have HDR, it may not be as high a priority as stability.

I do hope it'll get fixed along the way.
[G2 Original Android Development] wq0913562:

The latest CM13 build has snapdragon camera with it. I'm running it. :)
[G2 Original Android Development] DiegoDallaBattista:
How is running? Because I'm on cm12.1 snapshot e and I want pass to the cm13 build but i'm not sure, is the battery more bettere than cm12.1?
[G2 Original Android Development] Henryy97:
Can't remember what 12.1 was like in terms of battery life. I mostly used stock for lollipop. So far I love CM13. The camera is good too although HDR doesn't work. Fast charging is also not working although the charging time is still pretty decent! Apart from that, it is MUCH smoother than ANY ROM I've used before. I get about 4-6hrs of screen on time with medium to heavy usage.

I recommend upgrading UNLESS the things I mentioned are crucial to you. Otherwise, just wait until CM sorts out these issues.
[G2 Original Android Development] DiegoDallaBattista:
Uhm, well I don't think that the problems of the rom are so crucial, but hell, I want it!

Maybe when the first snapshot of the CM13 will come I'll install it and I hope it is soon!
[G2 Original Android Development] migueldbr:
If you don't mind the bugs it still has then go for it. It is really smooth too, but I went back to exodus 5.1.1 because the battery on that rom is excellent and has no bugs. I flashed the snap camera that dr4stic provided and it works just fine on 5.1.1(excellent camera btw). Cm13 still has some bugs for me that make me stick to 5.1.1. But in a month or so I'm guessing it will be even better. Regarding battery life, at least compared to exodus, I think it's about the same, I get 6 hours sot on both, more or less the same usage pattern. Even though 5.1.1 is very smooth, cm13 manages to be even more fluid while giving me the same battery life(which is good). Standby idle drain is also better on cm13 because of doze mode

Snapdragon messed up for me in last nightly, navigation bar seems to be gone :/
[G2 Original Android Development] dr4stic:
Important info for new built-in "Snap" camera

Hello folks!

As you may have heard, "Snap" has been approved as our new replacement camera. According to cmxlog.com, it was not included in the current nightly, but WILL be included in the next nightly, dated "20160112". It missed the cut-off for the last build.

Anyone who has flashed my Snap zip file will have a problem.

My zip file installs an addon script to make it persist across system updates (just like gapps does). That means even if you update you'll still have my version of Snap, no matter how many updates the system level version gets. Some of you who upgraded after seeing the patch get approved likely thought you'd gotten the new app, when in reality it was simply my Snap build reinstalling itself after the update. You will need to disable the addon script once the new build for 2016-01-12 is pushed. To keep my flash zip from asserting itself you can either manually delete the following /system/addon.d/65-snap.sh file before performing your upgrade, or re-install your system (without wiping data, don't worry) by following the instructions here.

Anyone using a "Stock" distribution of Gapps that does not override the removal of the AOSP/OEM camera may also have a problem.

At the moment, for example, the OpenGapps installer doesn't see Snap as being a stock camera to be replaced. However now that it's been made a default camera, I'm sure it'll be added to the list. You should create a gapps-config.txt file to exclude the "Stock Nexus Camera" from being installed which would remove the AOSP camera. Please follow the instructions here.

Finally, I'm not sure if this will fix HDR for us, but there is an additional patch that got approved that tells Snap to handle HDR differently on LGE devices. The problem is (for those who look at the patch) that it defaults this setting to "off" for most devices, and doesn't turn it on for ours. I'm also not sure that it would "just work" for us. But I'm gonna try and get them to enable at least the option for us.
[G2 Original Android Development] PsychoGame:
Hello [MENTION=2096805]dr4stic[/MENTION], currently I'm in the process of updating the msm8974 kernel code tot latest CAF commits. There are a lot of commits which have to be tested, is it possible to give you a link to a beta boot.img for the G2 devices zo the changes can be tested on a variaty of devices. This way it would be easier to spot regressions.
[G2 Original Android Development] xXfreshXx:
Nice. Can you say me how you flashed it please?

First of all there are so many kdz files on his server, so i dont know which one I should choose.

The one I tried has a problem while flashing it. It stucks at 43%.

Did you do Normal flash or CSE Flash?

Thanks!
[G2 Original Android Development] brrrrm:
I used CSE Flash.

You can download the right kdz version for your G2 using this link, but you need add your IMEI number at the end:

http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=YOUR*IMEI*NUMBER

This link works for my D802 ACZEBK
[G2 Original Android Development] xXfreshXx:
My Phone is booting now. Thanks.

But my Recovery still dont work.

How can I fix recovery now?

Second question:

COuld it be possible that CSE Flash formatted my internal storage?!
[G2 Original Android Development] brrrrm:
Yes, you have stock rom without root and without custom recovery and clean internal storage. I hope you have backup of your internal storage made by TWRP.

You need root (recommend DP ROOT) and flash TWRP (recommend Autorec).
[G2 Original Android Development] xXfreshXx:
No i had NO backup :crying: :crying:

My backup was on internal storage
[G2 Original Android Development] xXfreshXx:
i can confirm.

recovery now works. data loss is really sad but i'm glad that my phone is not bricked.

i thank you brrrrm!
[G2 Original Android Development] ansontyl96:
Use lg flash tool and flash kdz, your internal storage should be fine
[G2 Original Android Development] xXfreshXx:
what do you mean? i already flashed my kdz via lg flash tool

but i think this flash formatted my internal storage.

cant find any data on phone explorer or via usb on pc explorer.
[G2 Original Android Development] ansontyl96:
Usually that wouldn't lost any of your internal storage, but i guess you just formatted your entire phone?
[G2 Original Android Development] xXfreshXx:
I formatted nothing. My data is gone, so I think it was the "Back2Stock"-Method. Because on CM13 my data wasn't formatted.

USB OTG now working on latest nightly.

At least it shows on phone but not in file manager [emoji22]
[G2 Original Android Development] dr4stic:
Yeah, I was talking to the devs about that. OTG works, but filemanagers need to be updated to the way things work on marshmallow now. If you have a root enabled file manager (I don't think stock cm fm is there yet), you can see your card mounted under a funny looking string within /storage/usb or /mnt/media_rw ...
[G2 Original Android Development] Treboeth:
Correct works in Es File manager.
[G2 Original Android Development] brrrrm:
Yes, with every nightly update you have to flash gapps.
[G2 Original Android Development] dr4stic:
No, that's not true. If that's happening, then your recovery doesn't properly support sepolicy.

If you're using TWRP, upgrade to blastagator's latest, which is 2.8.7.3. His older releases didn't honor sepolicy. There is also my own TWRP, which should work but has some issues of it's own, and I've stopped supporting it since blastagator updated his.

This fixes the issue.

Or, use CyanogenMod's Recovery.

[G2 Original Android Development] dr4stic:
Yes, a known issue

I can install snap camera on kitkat stock?

Snap camera better than stock?
[G2 Original Android Development] dr4stic:
I'm pretty sure the answer is "no" given that at least one of the last patches switched the controls from "Holo" to "Material", and material didn't happen until Lollipop.

But if you're on stock, why not use the stock camera? It was pretty good from what I'm told.

Call for help, testing

Hello folks!

[MENTION=4647521]PsychoGame[/MENTION] is doing the good work of trying to keep our kernel up to date. To that end he needs people to test his kernels as much as possible.

If you enjoy using Marshmallow CM on your G2, PLEASE help him by testing these kernels. Much of the time we wonder how we can give back because it feels like there isn't much we can do. Well, this sort of help is very valuable to the continuing the upkeep on our devices :)

Important Notes:

This test kernel WILL NOT fix any of the "known bugs" of our device. It does nothing for the RIL, won't add HDR, won't suddenly fix the unbroken OTG (which is not broken, but there are hardheaded people here that seem to think it is). What this kernel fixes is some kernel specific bugs that you may well never have seen or will see.

The aim of this kernel test is to make sure we are not making the devices less stable than they already are. Ideally, your devices should perform exactly as they did before, and that's what we're going for.

If your installation is unstable BEFORE the test (crashing randomly, eating through the battery unusually quickly, spitting in your coffee, that sorta thing) DO NOT try the test kernel.

Now, if you could please, visit the following thread and give the kernel a run for a day or two.

So, I'm torn. On one hand I don't want to respond to the original question because I posted the answer AT THE TOP OF THE SAME PAGE THAT THE QUESTION WAS POSTED ON. I mean honestly, they didn't even have to search, all they had to do was scroll up. Plus, it's answered in the FAQ, and btw, it's also answered in a series of questions a couple of pages back. I originally decided I wasn't going to bother answering because, honestly, it felt like the right thing to do.

On the other hand, I don't want people posting BAD answers like above. Switching to a different versions of a gapps the way the responder described will create problems for at least the first update. And it's also unnecessary and, had the responder read the thread as well, an easy problem to resolve.

I know there are people here that read the thread and often respond for me with questions that have already been answered time and time again. To those of you (you know who you are, cuz I know you're equally frustrated by this), THANK YOU.

You know, if you're moving between such old versions, it might not be a bad idea to reset and start from scratch. I'm only saying this because considering how old the release was that you started from, there's a good chance there were some odd changes to the settings database that might not have resolved themselves properly.

Unless you're happy, in which case ignore me :)

But I do think a reset is in your future at some point...
