5. sound recording is not working anymore (always silent) - what's app voice mails or lineage sound recorder
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] giaur:
Nope, there are no any incoming commits intended to fix that. Ridiculous.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] rd-Target:
I've been running LOS 14 on my H850 since before it was official, and I haven't looked back on stock since then.

There are some bugs, but for me it's no big deal. I rarely use the camera, and never use Bluetooth hands free, so the bugs related to those options doesn't bother me at all.

In the last builds there has been an issue on charging; it only seems to charge with 400mA. But again, with my usage the phone only needs to be charged over night (I normally have ~40% power left when I go to sleep), so there's no problem reaching a full charge over night. :o

Overall, I'm a satisfied user and greatly appreciate all the developers hard work. :good:
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Nadeem A.M:
Hmm understandable. I started that way hoping it would improve. But that's when I was less active and fewer hours - basically less demand of my phone. But, paying this much for a flagship I need it to do everything it's supposed to do: so now on Fulmics. Plus I'm a heavy user so wakelocks are an issue.

Perhaps with LOS15 I'll return.

And yes of course I appreciate devs work.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] rd-Target:
Yea we all have different demands of our phones, and therefor some issues are more critical for some users. :)

I forgot to mention I've frozen the NFC app with Titanium Backup which improves standby time (I think NFC was causing some wakelocks?). :cowboy:

I fully understand why the slow charging could be crucial for many users, who use there phone just a little more than I do, and therefor are in need of charging during the day. And therefore, at the moment, LOS might not be the best choice for many.

Also some of the other bugs might be a deal-breaker for some users.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] brainsaw:
Thing is: putting all effort in LOS15.0 surely is the right way. But not giving out any hint about times while letting some major bugs (BT, QC) unfixed IS a problem for some users.

Especially regarding the time, for how long these bugs have been open now.

I strongly suggest to at least fix the major bugs.

I really appreciate the work too. But that doesn't mean, we (the users) are not allowed to state some critics about priorities, procedures or communication behavior anymore, right?
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] pedro1977:
Use audio recorder by Sony.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] orclex:
for what's app voice messages???:rolleyes:
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] pedro1977:
New error you'll have to wait for a fix, you could report it to whstsapp sometimes they will fix it in a beta o) if you do report it, ensure your device is unrooted at that time.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] lolmensch:
idk, they are not required to give any info. They are not obligated. I'd only go as far as suggesting that it would help the users being kept up to date and so on.

I still have the impression that some don't understand that if some major keypersons like lilrowrow and I think he is called Rashed97 or so wouldn't care, we are left in the open water and the custom rom scene would look very dire. Leaving us with AOSPA and Fulmics which is not a lot to chose from.

And if you think about being criticized yourself it normally takes the fun out of it. For example playing sports and always hearing do that differently or when are you going to win something eventually (comparing to ETAs) and so on you lose interest.

I agree with you that it would help to fix the major bugs but until then, don't use it as a daily driver. As simple as that
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] davitox87:
I agree, too many people feel entitled to the work that's the devs do. We should all be grateful if we get anything. I understand the users but come on, everyday people report the same problems without searching the forum, ask for ETAs and so fourth. Just relax, quit complaining that these features that you need don't work. If you need them stay on stock. It's pretty simple. I am also a user and get annoyed, I could imagine how the devs feel.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Nadeem A.M:
No one said anything about obligation. Now I know that some individuals feel entitled to custom ROMS, and that because of their activity on forums devs are sometimes discouraged.

I also recognise the importance of devs reminding forum users of such customs.

Now I know that (most) devs are ok with this, this post is for the minority:

Even when people say things such as "no offence" or "just fyi" some users still take offense and an argument begins. The affects of this are not good: hindering development etc. I want to keep this short, so you can think of other affects by yourself.

Another issue is that a lot of users post their query without reading the forum. A lot of people bash them for it, which I think is unfair. (Again I know devs work hard and so community should make the minimum effort). But, there are many reasons for why someone might ask directly, and most people are cool and answer. Others again just bash them for it: please stop.

There's more I'd like to say but again: short as possible ??. I know this will get a more hate than love, but no one mentions this. And I also know it's the wrong thread, but since it's started in previous posts and has bigger audience than the designated ones: why not?

Devs, thks for keeping us in mind. But ultimately, do what you feel is cool - which you do anyway ?

*** Ok, this post is all over the place. I had some initial thoughts which I didn't argue correctly. Hopefully, people can still get the message. Perhaps I'll edit this at a later point. Have a good one.

look in g6 lineageos thread since g5 and g6 share msm8996-common so the bug will exist in both versions in h870 thread i shared a fix
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] CeeeJaaay:
Here's the fix if people don't want to go digging in the other thread:
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Kirparon:
Yeah the microphon bug is so bad...

And it is not only in Whatsapp. Its in Threema, Voice Recorder etc.

Only when i call someone i can talk, but when i use the outside speaker, also no signal.

I try the workaround but how can i make the document writiable. Its only for reading. Is there a workaround? When not i have to go back to Stock Rom, withoug Mikrofon it´s bad. We have to track the Bug Into the LineageOS Bug Report, that the maintainer can fix it. Maybe he didn´t know about it.

_____________________

And how can i use Quick Charge? I know its propertair but now it need 8 hours for a full load, thats so long :D Its possible that i can load it faster?

Its for H840?

refer to first post please
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] lolmensch:
use a proper file explorer like root explorer. Then you can edit the file.

You can charge faster by flashing a custom kernel like the crazyaquakernel
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] King_lilrowrow:
Work goes on, even if we don't appear active on XDA 24/7.

Most work has started on lineage 15 that doesn't mean we aren't working on current 14.1 issues.

We DON'T give ETA's as that always leads to disappointment if we don't manage to meet that deadline.

Myself, Rashed97 and all the lineage team work mostly for free and in our own spare time unless people send donations.

I myself thank everyone participating in this thread, but please remember we do work hard on these things and don't appreciate the demand for timelines, ETA's and we will not give them.

Thank you.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] pedro1977:
Yup use root explorer, if it doesn't work, mount it r/w. This will also fix the speaker issue when making a call with various apps.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Kirparon:
I have the H850 in Europe(Germany)

I go back to stock rom for a few months and i look how it work then. Why it´s not standard that the mikrofon bug get fixed when we know what the problem is? Its so hard to integreate into the Rom?
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] rfrazier:
I'm not a programmer, not involved in lineage, etc. Although I used cyanogenmod for some time before the transformation to lineage, I've only been looking at development stuff (watching changelogs, building local ROMs) for the last few months. So, I'm guessing.

It looks to me as though there are three main things going on. The first is the change from cyanogenmod to lineage. The second, perhaps related, is a more logical organising of development. For example, even more concentration on supporting SOCs (System on Chip) as families of devices rather than reproducing the work in various implementations for individual devices. The third is the switch from N to O (14 to 15).

The shift from cyanogenmod to lineage happened in mid cycle (N to O). Given this, what I would have done would be to consider 14 a changeover maintenance version, using the rest of this cycle to make the underlying switch from cyanogenmod to lineage, and, since it is better to get off on a good footing, to organize the code base better. One consequence of adopting this strategy would be that fixes integral to the new version of android and new structure of code base would have highest priority. And regressions resulting from those changes, would have not so high a priority, as long as basic functions worked. One of the things up for grabs, of course, is what constitutes a basic function.

("Wack-a-mole" fixes don't have a lasting value.)

So, with respect to this particular fix, the questions would be: Is it basic? Is it one that will be able to be carried over, or is it one that will require a rejigging when moving to 15.? It is, I suppose, a kind of triage for coding.

Best wishes,

Bob

PS One final comment. The maintainer for this device also seems to be doing a lot of work organizing code for SOCs.

Fixing Quick Charge would really help alot
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Inirida:
Hi Bob/rfrazier,

I'm trying to get unifiednlp to work on my LG G5 h850. I came upon the same problem which you already seem to have solved which is that unifiednlp does not register in the system with official LOS builds.

I have no problems building LOS from source and your instructions regarding the removal of qualcomms apk and xml and replacing them with unifiednlp are straightforward. However I'm not quite certain what you mean with:

added entry for this to /vendor/lge/msm8996-common/msm8996-common-vendor.mk

or

removed entries for these from /vendor/lge/msm8996-common/msm8996-common-vendor.mk

Could you maybe provide a .patch file or something similar to the output of Linux's diff command for the file /vendor/lge/msm8996-common/msm8996-common-vendor.mk before and after your changes (or even just the file itself)?

thanks for your time spent on this!

Best regards,

Jasper

[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Nadeem A.M:
Hey man. A few questions.

1. I'm getting about 3.5/4h SOT MAX on Fulmics 3.5. I'm to flash this today, should it be fine?

2. I'm big on media. Will Camera/Video still work acceptably? I know it won't be as good, but say Snapchat/Instagram/Facebook any of the above will work?

3. Does substratum work?

4. Light Patch - Any experience?

5. Did you end up trying with the kernel? Does it improve things?

I get if you don't have all the answers, thanks again man. If anyone else can also comment?
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] brainsaw:
LOS14.1 nightly from today still not fixes the quick charge bug, right?
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Justatechie:
1. Only a few times have I ever got to 3.5 hours of SOT, it could partially due be due to my connection to my lg g watch. It might increase if speedy kernel gets installed because it has EAS.

2. The camera still works just fine and had not have any issues with it even when recording. I even pushed a 1080p 60fps google camera apk on this thing and it was able to save those videos. As snapchat, instagram, and facebook quality will be sacrificed, but your friends won't notice it that much.

3. It should be able to work because it was reported working way back. I was thinking of pushing a theme on this phone since I like dark ui, but I may have to wait on that as life between school and work is picking up with midterms not too far away. Looks can wait, I care about function more than anything, still upset that NFC cant work even though I got it to scan :P but it will crash thanks to the service crashing for reasons Idk why.

4&5. For the light patch, never tried it and probably never will since I am pretty content with this phone and don't want to ruin it like I did a few times already. I still undecided what to do with the kernel. Like I said before, I probably am going to need my phone a lot now than ever before so I can't risk chancing it because I would sacrifice precious time.

I know I was that much help with the last few answers but if you do have the time to try these things out go for it, but I would understand why if you cannot and that's fine. I would probably say go for an earlier version of speedy since it is closer to our build date rather than later versions though minor changes were done during the summer.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Nimueh:
I doubt it will get fixed on N at all since that's no longer a priority, we can just hope that O will be better :rolleyes:
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] brainsaw:
Yeah. I fear so too. I was hoping at least QC got fixed, as it affects all users..
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Nadeem A.M:
Appreaciate It man. And I'm in a similar situation to to you, I regard function above anything else.

When you get the chance, I recommend Light Patch. I'm part of the team and at least for the Pixel Features I think it's worth it.

I'll search for this Speedy Kernel, and try it out. I'll get back to you.

3.5h SOT isn't much, but understood. You have BT always enabled and I believe there are some wakelocks - correct me if I'm wrong. Even without, BT is quite heavy in my experience considering its ALWAYS on. This gives me encouragement, I'll give it a go.

My reasons for switching are mainly functionality. I'm on a G6 port so of course not optimized for this device by the manufacturer. Even though I like to know I have the latest device/features and actually put it to use - for example LG Themes. This brings me to another reason - aesthetics. I miss substratum, the native look and material design. I also feel that the fingerprint sensor works better. The OS as a whole is quicker. I think so anyway.

Your replies were much help. Thanks man. I'm on H850. I remember at the beginning of development cycle H830 had a better camera port than H850. Hopefully I'm still cool.

+: Hey man, can you clarify something for me? Is all this feedback you've given me for the RR download you provided me or for Lineage OS? Just because of the thread it's a little confusing.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] rfrazier:
Jasper, I don't know how to make patches (need to learn), and no time to explain things today. Early tomorrow.

Best wishes,

Bob
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Justatechie:
It was regarding the way things were going in LOS and how I am using an old version of RR based on the old sources of LOS.

I thought it would help those who seem like that those bugs were always there which is not the case. Its just that with everything that is happening during this past year with cm going to los and merging the features, los14 is not like how the cm builds were.

With los15, things will go back to the way they used to be that's why I would avoid being frustrated with these bugs introduced each update.

Edit: To further clarify, the constant bugs that will pop up will not be apparent during los 15 since the merging is done from source and not from cm14.1, so it is worth squashing bugs.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Nadeem A.M:
That's awesome! I prefer RR anyway - no offence LOS developers - which you shouldn't be. And I'll stop discussing RR on 'technically' the wrong thread.

And I understand your logic. Fingers crossed.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Rumzie:
Just some notes from a clean install of the 9/26 build:

- Still slow charging

- LiveDisplay not working

- Vertical lines on the camera (in dark rooms)

- Once phone gets thermal throttled (from being hot in general), seems like the throttling/lag sticks. Reboot fixes this.

- Weird "warm-up" period before you can play FLAC, M4A audio files.

- Still great battery life (3-4 hours SOT)

- Audio quality (speaker, ear-piece, headphones, BlueTooth) is as solid and loud as stock.

Looking forward to the future of Lineage 15.

EDIT:

- Hold power button for torch causes soft reboot:Looks like a fix is in!
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] carloandreaguilar:
Does the dual camera work on custom roms? laser focus? do all the hardware features work? if not, cant i just download the stock camera apk?? Please let me know becuase im thinking of either buying THIS phone and putting roms on it, or a Moto g5 plus. Both cost about the same where I live. But i hate LGs UI and i would have to put a rom on it
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] lolmensch:
yes, yes, no (look at the post above), no (framework dependant).

Currently not a daily driver imo but soon probably. If you want it now buy a g5 plus
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] carloandreaguilar:
Thank you for the response...

Are there any 7.1.1 roms for this phone where everything works though? Saw ofher roms, they say "stable" but i dont have time to read the entire forum and see it everything does work though
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] lolmensch:
Actually I dont know but if you want a feature rich, bug free phone take a look at fulmics which you can theme. Also I'd stay on stock rather than aosp for the camera atm.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] totalnoob34:
Hi there. I'm new here, I just got a G5.

I'd like to keep using RRN, but I can't seem to be able to find a bugs list. Is yours comprehensive?
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] f4n471c:
I am still wondering why the rom is stated as "stable" in the OP. How can someone call a ROM with that many bugs "stable"...
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] gismo2004:
Easy: use a keyboard and press keys with letter: S T A B L E

Woops and you are done ;)

And if you would have checked this thread, you would have found out, that this thread is not maintained at all...

Cheers
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] lolmensch:
because you dont have any random reboots. it is stable just not fully fixed and as you know development shifted heavily towards los15 where you can expect less bugs afaik
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Rumzie:
Added some

underlined

items that i missed. A decent amount of changes are going into tonight's nightly, so I will continue to update.

- Still slow charging

- LiveDisplay not working

- NFC not working (disable the NFC service with Titanium Backup to stop NFC wakelocks)

- Bluetooth audio in calls does not work.

- Vertical lines on the camera (in dark rooms)

- Once phone gets thermal throttled (from being hot in general), seems like the throttling/lag sticks. Reboot fixes this.

- Weird "warm-up" period before you can play FLAC, M4A audio files.

- Still great battery life (3-4 hours SOT)

- Audio quality (speaker, ear-piece, headphones, Bluetooth) is as solid and loud as stock.

- Hold power button for torch causes soft reboot: Looks like a fix is in!

Just like [MENTION=1895945]lolmensch[/MENTION] said, a couple broken features doesnt mean the operating system isn't solid enough to use as a daily driver. I get great battery life and UI fluidity, not to mention that the camera is solid, and takes immaculate images/videos (especially with HDR+ on [MENTION=4329165]ivanich[/MENTION] Pixel Camera Port v1.4). If you NEED any of the features listed above as not working, then a stock rom is the way to go.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] totalnoob34:
Thanks a lot for following your post up. I'll give this ROM a shot, besides general stability I need the best camera and audio possible, and you seem to be comfirming that.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Rumzie:
Looks like quick charging is fixed with the 10/3 build!!!

Can someone test and confirm?
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] gismo2004:
Hmmm I have not tested yet, but I don't see something committed which is related to quick change...
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] drizzt:
Actually if you disable NFC service with Titanium you still have the wakelocks (tested with Better Battery Stats), so I created a simple magisk plugin that disables NFC without touching the system partition.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Rumzie:
I did not see anything either. But after installing, my phone went from 60 - 90 percent within 25 minutes.

Someone else reported this, but it was for a specifically short amount of time. Maybe this could be the same case...
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Randomuser666:
Nope, quick charging isn't working.

The first minute or so it goes up to 1310 mA but then drops down to the usual 420 mA
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] andrerodr:
Science tells me fast charge works :good:
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Sdobron:
The tmobile update version 20L that came out yesterday (10/3) also fixed quick charge. Maybe some blobs from that update were incorporated into the latest Lineage build.

I always had issues with quick charge turning off on stock and the latest update finally resolved it.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Homuncoloss:
Quick charging are good news.

Maybe Bluetooth is working well for calls soon? :)
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] andrerodr:
I have one issue here, probably not lineage related, contrary to dirty flashing that I usualy do, this time I went fancy and I did a clean install. Now google 1st configuration/restore says it can't connect to server.

Did it happen to someone or do you know some solution?
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] pedro1977:
Anyone manage to set up OK Google voice commands? For me it is stuck at the voice training screen.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Rumzie:
I believe that's the short burst of time where quick charging works. I'm guessing it slowed down shortly after.

Mine is connected to a quick charger, and is estimated to be charged in 5 hours.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] andrerodr:
Humm, I did not test it on a full charge but it worth to try.
