End of Life (EOL)

Hello, everyone.

The news today are sadly not the best at all, I've changed my device's panel (again) as I mentioned I'd do and to my surprise, it came with a defect, I have played with the flex cable for a while to fix that scrambled screen but nothing. Yesterday morning the panel wouldn't even wake up and it was all black, I opened it to see what has happened and noticed the flex cable was "crushed" against the board. I got a partial refund and decided to stop trying to fix with those Chinese displays.

After all, I decided it's time to move on... I'll see if I can sell some parts like mobo, battery, and other components too.

Now that the bad news are gone, I must tell the good news: I'll keep the Kernel security updates and maintain it (and AOSPA7) as well, nothing will change except I won't be testing the builds on my device but since the Kernel is consolidated, I guess it's not a must.

I'm releasing the "EOL" BETA 12 build with some fixes, new drivers and updates for testing. I've run this build for the whole week until I've lost the panel and it was great.

The thread was updated to account for that as well... fully refactored.

OBS: If someone has the interest in fundraising a new display or has a display/panel around to donate, please PM me so I can give another shot to this device, the end 2013 to 2014 components are still good as new and worth another shot.
[G2 Android Development] cabalio83:
That's really sad to hear. This kernel does make the G2 work like a charm... Not to mention I just clean flashed you latest AOSPA build (btw, amazing)

I like the idea of fundraising a new display, in the lately Galaxy Nexus days the community managed to even buy new devices for the devs...

How much does a D802 cost in your country? Maybe we could even manage to get a new G2 to you.
[G2 Android Development] GalaticStryder:
It would be cheap since all the components are brand new (from KK device) like battery, camera and stuff. The problem is that cheap displays will always be a shot in the dark, at least the ones I got from China.

I could only find this, it says OEM and has the white option.

What pisses me off it the great job during the last assembly, screen had settled and fit just like brand new until I turned it on and noticed this effect. I'm not sure if the voltage was correct because the brightness was damn low.
[G2 Android Development] VzQzZ:
2016 definitely is the year of tragedies.. very said to hear that.

I definitely support the idea of fundraising! Unfortunately, I can't can't help that much but I'll certainly drop some bucks.

Here on Brazil, a panel costs around R$150 ~ R$200 BRL, something like U$$50 ~ U$$70 and an used G2 for around U$$200 ~ U$$250 ( Yeah, it sucks here..)

GalaticStryder is one of our best developer, always working hard and trying to improve experience with our phones. Both Lambda Kernel and AOSPA Builds are amazing and among the best options available for G2. The camera and sound improvements he made with AOSPA are just phenomenal. I haven't seen anyone come even closer to what he made.

I'm really sad about that and hope the users can reunite, make donations and give you a new panel or even a new G2.

Thank you for everything and wishes you the best, GS.

[MENTION=6175749]GalaticStryder[/MENTION] wich will be your new device?

Inviato dal mio LG-D802 utilizzando Tapatalk
[G2 Android Development] GalaticStryder:
Probably the LeEco Le 2 but I'm not sure since the MSM8976 board misses support for Vulkan and it doesn't have NFC which is must-have for me.

The LeEco Le Pro 3 seems to be a great device but I'd not be able to go higher in that price range, e.g. getting a OnePlus 3T.

I'd like to bring up a device on my own and the LeEco seems a great place to start, it is like choosing the N5 vs LG G2 back then, but nowadays the market is saturated with smartphones and you need to be careful to get something that isn't a headache.
[G2 Android Development] Alex1911:
Hi, a possible alternative for a used G2 would be "willhaben", i got my d802 there for about 90 Euros, mabye you could find something there.

PS.: another alternative would be amazon, they sometimes sell used Phones there.

Best Regard's

[G2 Android Development] AlexVipXDA:
Think about one plus 3t, have very high quality cpu\gpu in very low price, no?

[MENTION=6175749]GalaticStryder[/MENTION] for me is not a problem to help you out with G2

now i have Mi5 (which i suggest you to take one, its like 280€ for the 64gb model on gearbest, and we need a kernel like yours on Mi5, we have alredy official cm13,14.1, a great devs likeBruno martins, that made the whole bringup with Louis Popi), but i had g2 and you kernel was rocking :D

PM me if you want to know more about mi5, it's a great device, with SD820, Adreno 530, 3/4GB of ram, Vulkan support and NFC

(beside that, is so beautiful **)

Thanks again for the current support for G2 community, it's much appreciated
[G2 Android Development] Tibiti:
Would be sad to see GalacticStryder leave

I bought a new 32GB D802 on ebay about 1,5 months ago for 110 GBP, not too expensive I think and IMHO makes it pointless to try getting and fixing display panels around 3/4 of the price. Will admit that the real problem is finding a proper one (a.k.a. reputable supplier), however plenty of peeps want to sell theirs.

I was thinking about swapping the device but it just does not make any sense to me for now, financially or otherwise, I won't argue though that it's gonna be necessary sooner or later. In my eyes there's only one device as a worthy replacement-candidate.. (1+3T) but I will/can not shell out ~300+ quid.

Back to the point:

if you decide to stay with us I'm willing to donate (just like many of us I'd say.. :D), the kernel is one of the reasons I still have this device..
[G2 Android Development] GalaticStryder:
Thanks, I plan to keep the LG G2 for now. I'm willing to get this so I just attach my parts on it.
[G2 Android Development] _Legend0:
Hey Galactic,

i've replaced screen on my G2 two times. First one i bought as a replacement, it wasn't straight from LG so it was not ideal fit (probably a chinese one). Second time i bought refubrished one and guess what - looks like it's LG's original panel. It fits, has exact bezel style, first one had much more wider and shinier middle thing. Also after second replacement i had white lines etc. I've read somewhere that the flex near the usb port was touching pcb or something so i took small piece of insulating tape and sticked it under it to cover the pcb . And the problem is gone.
[G2 Android Development] GalaticStryder:
I noticed that the original one has a film protector in that area and I did the same thing on the board but unfortunately, it didn't help after I attached the sound protector rubber part and it may have pressed the flex cable to the death :( resulting in a black screen.
[G2 Android Development] falconhawk81:
Hi, reboot when i was in instagram i think, dont remember. Thanks.
[G2 Android Development] Tibiti:
Zzmove

A question to the creator:

Is it possible to incorporate the zzmove &| optimax governor to the kernel?

If yes, how hard is it? I mean if it is relativelty simple I could have a go myself I just don't know how much it involves..

Simply love it as these always gave me a very balanced act (and insane battery life in case of optimax).

Thanks in advance!
[G2 Android Development] Romagnolo1973:
Tested Beta 12 on DirtyUnicorn Nougat (very clean rom AOSP based) and works perfectly, with your kernel sound output is realy good, near stock.

Thanks, now testing battery consuption especially in deepsleep.
[G2 Android Development] GalaticStryder:
Sure, I can add it. It's actually pretty simple to this on my Kernel, it has hybrid cpufreq API so any 3.4.y or 3.10.y version of any governor fits just fine. Let me just look for a recent implementation of it...

Thanks, this release is said to be more performance oriented since using ondemand by default (which has some jumps - not during sleep), if you need some extra juice, switch to interactive governor. If you need more juice, switch to AutoSMP hotplug.
[G2 Android Development] Tibiti:
Wow, that'd be osum.. D: Thank you!

Just realised in the morning there is a new version of the kernel, purrs along nicely, good job.

P.S.

Was just trying to find out how you feel about adding stuff, some devs like to keep s/w to their liking/guidelines and I don't know if they need to be tuned and such. Besides, I don't want everyone to start asking for additions. ;)

I was wondering, did you learn your stuff from Dorimanx mainly?
[G2 Android Development] dancivuk:
where the hell are the stable versions?
[G2 Android Development] Tibiti:
careful please..

As stable as it gets I'd say, any ROM base (LP+)
[G2 Android Development] johnfredmark#20:
I'm currently using RR Rom 5.8.0 and try the BetaN12 for g2 i ended up bootloop. Anyone knows how to fix it?

Random reboots F320

Still have problems with random reboots on Beta 12 on Nougat for F320
[G2 Android Development] _FroX_:
Hi, one question. Could be possible to add a limit to charge? It's not good to charge the battery till 100% so, is possible cut at "x"%? (Maybe variable in Synapse)
[G2 Android Development] khanjui:
It's a myth. I charged my G2's battery every single night since I got the phone 2 and half years ago. Battery is still healthy and acts like first day.
[G2 Android Development] _FroX_:
So maybe i need to change my battery... hehehe.
[G2 Android Development] ogisha:
On all phones in minimum last ten years, there is hardware protection which do not let battery get overcharged.

If your battery sensor shows that battery is 100% full, it is probably full 98% on hardware level.
[G2 Android Development] mdau:
It bootloops with crdroid latest too v1.9
[G2 Android Development] burakkcbyk:
I use RRemix 5.7.4.

I want use this rom on 5.7.4. Can i do only flash in twrp? Do i have a problem?(bootloop etc.)
[G2 Android Development] niklas389:
Maybe there went something wrong with your installation :/

On my D802 it's working just fine
[G2 Android Development] ExodissPL:
Greatkernel, today 6h on Screen but i have problem with battery drain on screen off. Drop 1% battery an hour off the screen, i have Greenify + Force Doze.
[G2 Android Development] Southleader:
Hi I have a LG D805 and I'm having a little problem...

Installed the latest beta 12 on AOSP Extended2.0 ROM with openGApps (20161230) and it gave me bootloop.

I tried it in different ways but still bootloop (tried installing right after rom installation. Tried installing after a day. Tried wiping cache and dalvik) but still bootloops.

Please Any help?

Regards
[G2 Android Development] rendiipratama:
me too, i used aosp extended 7.1.1 , have a bootloop and turn my phone off, plz help.
[G2 Android Development] PtSp:
Don't install if causes bootloop. On top u can see that some ppl removed synapse and fixed..

Khan
[G2 Android Development] pipyakas:
Got the latest N12 running on RR N 5.8.0 on my f320, no freeze or bootloop so far and I got it to run cool at 1.2ghz, 2 core AutoSMP and -55mv uv

Why did the gpu oc tuned down to 533mhz? Dorimanx still keep it at 650mhz right?

For me, in Vietnam an used G2 is around 70-80$, and a full touch panel replacing service cost 20$ and 2 hours max. Being next to China is pretty good when it comes to repairing old phones I guess
[G2 Android Development] Romagnolo1973:
look at synapse, with lamba you have a setting for modem to stay awake or go to deepsleep. Iìm using another rom at the moment so I can't tell u exactly where is it this setting but it is present. When awake, modem use 1% battery every hour, when in sleep it use 1% every 12 hours so could be that.

Second don't use greenify+forcedoze because they can coflict. In advanced setting Greenify can force Nougat doze to be more agressive than usual, so you don't need Force Doze that probably conflict with Greenify making the same job
[G2 Android Development] destroyer31:
will there be any new build? I'm on beta12.
[G2 Android Development] tttuuu888:
Thanks for great kernel.

I used to used beta 9 version and recently tried beta 12 version. The problem is that modification of mixer_paths.xml does not apply in beta 12 version.(voice-handset volume) I assume it is due to Synapse. So I deleted Synapse and tried again but still nothing changed. Synapse doesn't have option to modify call volume. So I think modification of mixer_paths.xml is the only option.

Any idea or suggestion will be appreciated. Thanks.
[G2 Android Development] Tibiti:
That's because you did not replace the mixer_paths.xml in /system/etc..

And don't forget it's not gonna stick unless you edit the xml file with your values before uploading it. (see help in the biquads app)

flash this kernel on crdroid 7.1 rom

hello ..... can anyone tell me i am running crdroid 7.1 rom and its work perfect on my ls980 did i used this kernel i mean is any problem if i flash this kernel on this rom....:D:D
[G2 Android Development] muhib471:
No.

No problem at all. I am using it since 30 days.

Using ls980.
[G2 Android Development] Dileep Jayanth:
bro u sure its safe to flash it after installing crdriod 7.1 rom ......is any doubt of brick my devices....and thanks for your reply...:o:o
[G2 Android Development] mark745:
I'm on extended 7.1 v3.1 and while it's a great ROM, the speaker sounds really low and it takes over three hours to charge. Can anyone advise me if this kernel would help and what settings I should apply if it can.

Also can someone tell me the settings for the best battery life without make the phone slow. I don't really play games.

Also this seems to have really slowed down my data speeds but I still have 4g sign showing unlike some people using it.

Sorry for coming across as so clueless but I'm really new to this. Thanks for any help.
[G2 Android Development] GalaticStryder:
Yes, you can always force fast charge and adjust sound gain in the speaker.

Read the Q&A at first post if you have general problems, for specific problems, get a Kernel log on Synapse and post here.

The battery ratio "hint" is at #2217. A good preset is at #2231.

I was going to write down some more tuning recommendation but as I'm out of the game for now, I'm just working on Le Pro 3 bring up and reading some books these days.

As far as Kernel network data speed, you'll be getting a very strong and fast modem on latest BETA 12 which will solve some of your issues regarding OSS ROMs (aka not LG stock).
[G2 Android Development] mark745:
Thanks very much for your help mate, I'll try and flash beta 12 and give those settings a try. I did force AC for the charging issue but it doesn't stick on that setting and reverts to disabled in every boot for some reason. I boosted it to 1800ma, is it safe to boost it to 2000ma?. I'm using my old nexus 5 charger that charged great on CAF cm14 but for some reason it's sooo slow on extended v3.
[G2 Android Development] muhib471:
Yeah I am sure man, It wont brick your phone.

Just remember to download the correct version.

I am using infinito 12 wildcard version for ls980 and its good :):good:
[G2 Android Development] Dileep Jayanth:
ok bro thanks a lot for your reply :good::good:
[G2 Android Development] jrk190:

[G2 Android Development] ceikokitkat:
First, you need to update to beta 12. Don't say that you have bugs, if you are not on latest version.
[G2 Android Development] abbas_2010:
i can use for rr 6.0.1????
[G2 Android Development] ceikokitkat:
Yes.
[G2 Android Development] WweLove:
Stable version is beta 11 so thats why i am using beta 11 :)
[G2 Android Development] ceikokitkat:
12 beta is also very stable, you can use it. And your problem is fixed in 12, I think.
[G2 Android Development] GalaticStryder:
I'm not sure if MSM8974 will have any effect with that change or not, nobody added it to MSM8974, not even the author of the change added on his OnePlus One.

OBS: Today we'll have a new update, I can't test but it should help.

[G2 Android Development] Romagnolo1973:
New Beta 13 booting and working on DirtyUnicorns Nougat.

Now I will test battery consuption in deepsleep and aeroplanemode active because on DU Lambda Beta 12 LG Modem DeepSleep seems was not working well (1% battery usage every hour even on aeromode active), Modem deepsleep was working in AospExtended 2 when I have used it (1% batery usage in 8 hours at night aeroplane mode active)
[G2 Android Development] perosmc:
D802, Fast battery consumption but man...that snappiness and speed. Thanks! Great work. And it's pretty stable latest beta 13.

I want to ask though, how do I update ROM with custom kernel as yours? Do i just update rom, then wipe dalvik/cache and then install your latest kernel again, wipe, and finally install latest gapps, then wipe before reboot?
[G2 Android Development] pipyakas:
Beta 13 is also not booting on my f320, DU 10.6 rom. The phone reboot into a bootloop after 5-6sec on LG logo
[G2 Android Development] GalaticStryder:
I can't track those issues anymore, I have no idea on this variant's background. Which version was the last working version on it?
[G2 Android Development] falconhawk81:

Very good work. Congrats.
[G2 Android Development] Marco.v:
Just flashed you the kernel or flashed also bump boot and SuperSU?
[G2 Android Development] totofe69:
I have just flashed kernel without bump and without supersu.
[G2 Android Development] pipyakas:
The last time I use the kernel before was way back to beta7, on RR M.

I also tried beta12 on RR N, and it also reboots but less frequent, at least on ext4. After I use f2fs on /data stability is way worse
[G2 Android Development] GalaticStryder:
The only part of your log useful was the last part: Chrome_SyncThre triggered a mutex action in Kernel and it couldn't escape from death (warning only but enough to taint/freeze the Kernel).

What Chrome version you've got under the hood? Could you try to trigger this issue again, probably Z-RAM related...

I've upgraded F2FS to track 3.18.y and imported some patches from dorimanx, the Kernel is now receiving less frequent updates on top of that base so I can't remember what would cause an issue like this besides an issue in the filesystem handling inside the ROM itself.

There are almost 1.5k changes after BETA 7, so no big deal going all the way back... for a rebase. Could you try another ROM just to make sure, like LineageOS 14.1 with plain EXT4 on /data and /cache.
[G2 Android Development] Sk0rpi0n89:
Im using RR 5.8 24.1 build and F2FS. For now its all working fine, only to see battery life. Again i put on first two core 1.9, second two 1.7, smartmax profile and underclock gpu. :) Nice work btw [MENTION=6175749]GalaticStryder[/MENTION] :good:
[G2 Android Development] falconhawk81:
I was in G+ when the freeze and reboot come. The Chrome version is stable from play store. And G+ is the last from play store to. I try to trigger the issue again.
[G2 Android Development] Marco.v:
The governor Impulse is very unstable...

I had 4 restarts in 5 hours of use
[G2 Android Development] Romagnolo1973:
Last beta 13 working perfectly with DU Nougat, I tested deepsleep, 24 hours in aeroplane mode (no data) is only 3% battery usage, so is perfecly working modem deeps sleep on it

The only litte issue is that defaul walpaper by the kernel deleted DU Wallpaper and I don't know where DU Wallpaper is stored to restores it, but is just a little thing.
[G2 Android Development] VzQzZ:
Beta 13 D802 working good with latest AOSPA 7. Thanks for the new update!

Hope your work on LeEco get the same success that you got here on G2! :)
[G2 Android Development] falconhawk81:
Frezee and reboot again, i dont know is the same problem.
[G2 Android Development] Tibiti:
Did you have a chance trying to integrate zzmove/optimax governors or in too deep with your new phone? :D
[G2 Android Development] perosmc:
One of the fastest LG G2 ever i got there. Thanks to your lambda kernel and asopextended rom.

Best settings with synapse and lambda kernel create a new: Super Performance: ElementalX + MSM Hotplug at 2.7GHz max ( 1.4ghz middle+300mhz low) other settings untouched (zen i/o, msm-adreno etc.)
[G2 Android Development] pipyakas:
I tried LOS14.1 nightly 0130, and I still got bootloop at the lineage logo as well as lg logo. All partition is on ext4

edit: after the phone bootloop into twrp for some reason, I reboot system and now the rom booted successfully. The testing continues

edit2: synapse said "JSON configuration parsing failed". I reflashed the kernel and now the phone stuck in bootloop or straight up freeze at LG logo again. Well now Im just wishing the Pure branch still exist

edit3: logcat attached, phone also reboot while Im trying to copy the older logcat out, but seems like a same problem for both reboots
[G2 Android Development] Tibiti:
Re:

Funnily enough I've been running AICP Nougat dirty flashed from the last MM build and have no reboots whatsoever with latest beta.

Had the occasional onewith the previous beta, but for me that's expected.
[G2 Android Development] VzQzZ:
I had a BSOD earlier today. Beta 13 with AOSPA 7.1, D802. Couldn't grab any logs cause I was in a rush going to a job interview.

Usually I have this issue with every Lambda build, don't know if it may be related to AOSPA itself also.. I always pair Lambda with AOSPA.. My favourite AOSP Kernel with my favourite AOSP ROM

But despite that, I'm felling that Beta 13 is quite more stable than previous version.. even Synapse seems to be working a little better..
[G2 Android Development] zauzaupt:
What happened to the synapse extra functions on the latest beta 13?
[G2 Android Development] Davido_96:
I have extra option. Hmmm
[G2 Android Development] zauzaupt:
Are you using d802?
[G2 Android Development] Davido_96:
Yes and kernel beta13
[G2 Android Development] zauzaupt:
Now it's OK, reinstall and clean the cache again and seem to work.

Thanks.
