I use Nova Launcher and I don't use the LG weather widgets or functionality, so I disabled the LG weather apps. roirraW "edor" ehT has a post near the top of this thread that links to his debloat scripts that you can flash to get rid of varying amounts of stuff. I made a custom debloat script that just disables OTA updates, deletes some garbage games and Verizon apps, and the LG weather apps.
[Verizon LG G3] DarkFamiliarity:
I have a VS985 on 5.1.1 (35B). Is there any way I can use this kdz to upgrade to MM without bricking? I have no chance of getting on Verizon's network and this would be the only possible option for me. Thanks in advance.
[Verizon LG G3] jurington:
This is for vs985 NOT vs980

Sorry, I meant VS985. I'll edit it

I am on stock 35B, do I need to go to 10b to kdz up to 47A? I'm confused..
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Just follow the instructions for flashing a KDZ in the thread I mentioned.
[Verizon LG G3] DarkFamiliarity:
I already read that thread but I don't understand what I should do after getting my device to 10b. Can't I clean flash 47A over 35B using the flash tool?

Thanks.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
You don't have to go to 10B at all. You can flash the 47A KDZ.

Enjoying the rom, but two issues whenever I install it:

None of the ringtones are visible (didn't install the LG Audio debloat)

Gallery doesn't show all of my images, only pictures taken from the camera within the ROM.

Any ideas?
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I haven't had these issues but use the thread's search field to search for "ringtone". I seem to recall one or more people have the same problem (albeit with the 46A release).
[Verizon LG G3] terminal13:
Flashed this and still have mms sending quality problems.... Thought it could be a dirty flash remnant, but remembered going to 46a from Jasmine was a total wipe.... Any thought? I'm stumped....
[Verizon LG G3] gjbwj:
Very nice thread, want to see if I understood correctly:

My VS985 is currently on 10b, rooted, in order to update to 47A

Step 1: use TWRP to flash 35b firmware, which will add 35b bootstack

Step 2: use TWRP to flash 47A firmware, Done !

or

I need to go through every version one by one: 10b > 11c.......> 35b > 46a > 47a.

Thank you so much
[Verizon LG G3] jomtos:
bold one.
[Verizon LG G3] osmidy:
The issue was solved by either a reboot or toggling app permissions at some point. Thanks though.

I also have the issue - had it in Azadi and switched roms hoping it didn't happen here. It does to seem to be just (or primarily) screenshots. This didn't happen on Lollipop roms to my memory.

I don't know enough about the lower level stuff to find a fix if the messaging app itself doesn't have an option, but I can't help but think there'd be some type of mod to resolve this issue if we looked hard enough.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
As [MENTION=6072570]jomtos[/MENTION] says, just flash the 35B bootstack and then this ROM. You can flash optional debloat scripts I have in the third post of this thread - if you do so I recommend doing it before booting the ROM the first time. Make sure and pay attention what the debloat zips remove in case they remove something you don't want them to. :)

By the looks of it you denied Titanium its required permissions or maybe you didn't give it root access. Or you are using a old version.

Thank you [MENTION=581991]roi[/MENTION]rraW "edor" & [MENTION=6072570]jomtos[/MENTION], I did it, whole process went very smooth. So far, run well. I did not do debloating, I am not a heavy phone user, I'll see, if they bother me so much, I will go back to block or remove them.

Thank you again, very appreciate your guys effort !

Thanks for all the hard work.

Loved being able to try out MM

I had everything up and running, but for whatever reason there was lag with the build on my device. Particularly in Chrome.

I couldn't find any other users with a similar experience, so maybe it's just my hardware, or chrome?

Anyhow, thanks for keeping us relevant as we quickly approach the dreaded 2 year mark.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Hi. Have you already updated to the latest Chrome? Besides that the only thing that comes to mind is the behind the scenes updates of the Play Services and Play Store, or errant apps/data if you restored any from a backup.
[Verizon LG G3] abdoul410:
Thanks for allowing us to try MM. I can not restore contacts from the SIM card , the sim card does not appear among the choices.

[Verizon LG G3] DarkFamiliarity:
Ah okay thanks
[Verizon LG G3] Specter597:
Yeah, I couldn't figure it out.

I'm paranoid about leftover data so I always do a clean install and don't allow Google or TiBu to restore anything except SMS and Access Points.

I had updated All the things and still no luck.

If I was more motivated I could have done alogcat.

Other than Chrome the ROM was snappy.

So xposed was working perfectly for me for a while, and now all of a sudden when I go to the Downloads section of the installer to update a module, it says xposed has stopped or whatever and forcecloses and restarts itself (xposed, not my phone). Tried restarting and clearing cache and still nothing.

I upgraded from 46A to 47A about a week ago, and my battery performance seems to have dropped quite a bit. Has anyone else noticed this? btw, I'm not using bluetooth...
[Verizon LG G3] joshua70448:
I usually just download the new Xposed ZIP, reboot into TWRP recovery, flash the new ZIP, wipe cache and Dalvik, and let it restart.

[Verizon LG G3] jurington:
I've been using V81 since yesterday with no problems. But in rovo's post the changes in 81 are more for developers and the end user won't really see much change. As for kernel stuff I haven't changed anything

Updated "All", "LG", "No OTA" and "Verizon" debloat zips

I updated the "All", "LG", "No OTA" and "Verizon" debloat zips to account for the below. Also, one more bloat item on 47A (not sure if it might've been in 46A too): /system/priv-app/BioITPlatform_SDService

Added to the OP of my debloat post, which I link to in the third post:

Summary: a LOT more stuff debloated, thanks to [MENTION=2941286]xdabbeb[/MENTION] , and a working No OTA debloat finally.
[Verizon LG G3] joshua70448:
The debloat generator has been updated with the new items. I've also added set_progress calls through the debloat process to provide additional feedback to the user.

Additional update: the checkbox state is saved in the address bar when you click Generate (like debloat.php#10123456 for just the Amazon apps) so you can save your configuration and share with others by copying the page URL after clicking the button.

I had heat problem 2-3 days after flashing the new version ..and I cleaned system ,data,cache ..as anyone expiriencing this problem?
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I've only had mine get hot (but same on all stock ROMs) when charging, especially if I'm also doing CPU and storage-intensive operations at the same time such as doing a TWRP backup while charging. It's gotten warm while doing intensive things but not charging.

[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I wonder if it's an app that's installed going crazy for some reason. Have you tried Xposed and Greenify's Aggressive Doze feature? If an app is causing that, though, I would want to solve it before going that route.
[Verizon LG G3] cryptixh:
since i have the important things backed up i just reflashed it after cleaning system,data,cache hope it wont have any problem this time if this happens again i think it might be a battery problem even its not drainying fast

That's certainly a possibility. There've been some others recently who had the experience that their battery needed to be replaced in order to solve problems they were having - I don't recall what all issues were reported, however.

I don't no if anyone else is having trouble writing to the external sd card but here is a fix I'm posting it here as I don't know if the file I changed is different in other ROMs. The only app that I still can't get to write to the sd card is titanium backup but so far everything else works fine

Just flash and reboot

SD Card issue?

Hey [MENTION=4888382]Robshr[/MENTION] did you ever get this resolved I have the same problem it was working fine up until last week. I tried the same card in a different phone and it works fine. Read/Write works fine, and works fine when add/removing files using a pc. I'm currently on [MENTION=2941286]xdabbeb[/MENTION]'s VS98546A and guess i will try to move to 47a and see if that helps. I also recently had to get a new sim card because it was prompting that the sim was not found, but after getting a new sim it has been doing fine for the past few weeks. I'm really hoping the sim/sdCard slot isn't bad cause then i'm screwed.
[Verizon LG G3] Droid1177:
I'm assuming you can get Titanium to write using your file. I had to change the backup folder location, using a method on here about changing the filesystem to document provider..read and write fine after that..

[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Did you try re-formatting it from within the Android OS?

Don't give up on it until you try flashing the 10B TOT (TOTs flash more partitions than KDZs) and see if things are back to normal, even if you decide to re-root, flash this updated ROM etc after.
[Verizon LG G3] b.a.miller26:
[MENTION=581991]roi[/MENTION]rraW "edor" ehT I did re-format using the Android OS and it successfully formatted after like 5 times, but it continues to randomly show "SanDisk sd card unexpectedly removed, Eject before removing to avoid data loss" or "SanDisk SD card corrupted" "Tap to fix" and I tried the erase and format.

So I would need to reload the 10B TOT with the LG flash tool and then try doing the vs98547A Stock Flashable rom/firmware that [MENTION=2941286]xdabbeb[/MENTION] did on this thread right?
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
All the steps would be flash 10B TOT, use Stump app to root, use TWRP Manager from Play Store to flash TWRP, flash 35B bootstack, then flash this 47A ROM.

[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Beside's [MENTION=6272771]maximusmullivan[/MENTION] 's excellent suggestion, when you say you reflashed everything, did you try the 10B TOT as well, or just KDZs? I had some weird problems that it didn't matter what KDZ I flashed, I still had them, until I flashed the 10B TOT. [MENTION=2941286]xdabbeb[/MENTION] educated me that TOTs flash more things than KDZs do, and indeed, there's a minimum of one or two more partitions now that I examined a TOT more closely. Since I flashed the TOT everything's back to normal, including flashing other KDZs, rooting, flashing ROMs...

I haven't kept up in a while. I'm running Android 6.0

Baseband VS985-MPSS.DI.2.0.1.c1.13-00053-M8974AAAAANPZM-1

Kernel version 3.4.0-perf-gf128999 lge@android-build

Build number MRA58K

Configuration version J13.LGE.VS985.0

Software version VS98546A

Which of these things am I out of date on? Can I do dirty flashes? Do I need to reflash the scripts for things like debloating and the sharpening fix?

On a related tangent also, has any other cool stuff come up in regard to this ROM or the VS985 in general lately? Any new ROMs people are digging on? I recently bought a new high speed MicroSD card to replace the one I've had in there that's been dead for a year, and also a PowerBear extended battery. I'm getting a lot of new interest in my phone so I just wanted to come around and check into things and make sure I'm running the latest and greatest software.
[Verizon LG G3] rippedwarrior69:
You have a link?
[Verizon LG G3] Emalasto:
The software version went from 46A to 47A, the build number most likely changed, and this has the March security patch as well.

If you're currently running 46A of this rom, then you're probably fine to clean flash, which in that case you shouldn't have to reflash any of the debloating scripts.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
You're probably fine to dirty flash 47A after wiping Cache and Dalvik/ART since it would be similar to taking the 46A->47A OTA if you were completely stock. The ROM itself is the only thing that you'd be eligible to update.

No matter how you flash the latest version, you'd have to reflash anything that modified the operating system. Debloat scripts, sharpening fixes, Xposed, etc. When you flash the ROM, it overwrites your current one completely (including the bloat). Since you wouldn't be wiping Data, your user apps and data, and system data would still be present. Always do a backup in TWRP before any major change like this, just in case.
[Verizon LG G3] rippedwarrior69:

Alright... got it all installed and debloated just now. Phone is booting up for the first time. Is there a recommended kernel to use? Mainly looking for improved battery life and SOT.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I'm unaware of any custom kernel for 46A or 47A. There's some AOSP or international ROM kernels people have tried on 46A previously and they found out it was causing them trouble later on.

I use Xposed with Greenify, and it's aggressive doze option.

I'm probably not the best example because I hardly talk to anyone on the phone and use my tablet wherever possible, but I've gotten 120 hours between battery charges, albeit with only 50 minutes of SoT due to my low usage. That's with Greenify's aggressive doze.
