Those of you on stock kernel, does FM work?

Those of you on v5 kernel, does FM work? :-p

Compiling test builds now for those that want to report bluetooth behavior.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Tilde88:
Here are 4 kernels (it's a folder).

These are all 100% stock from source.

The options are

Security source, with either new modules, or stock modules

And the other two are the regular branch, either stock modules, or new modules.

Please keep track of which one you flashed, and please let me know how it behaved. If you can reproduce any bluetooth issues, if everything works great, if the sound on the bluetooth is bad, etc. Also, FM seems to be linked to this, so if possible please test the FM tuner. It's included in the ROM, you just need to plug in headphones and run it. If you can't test FM, just say you couldn't do it.

Thanks again guys!

I know there are some Build.Prop changes in the V5 ROM. Should there be any issue adding Google Assistant?
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Tilde88:
Yoj have to change the device id for this. You can download an app on the play store to automatically do that for you. Changing the device id will make lg smartworld stop working. Smartworld is not included in the rom anyway.

Also, in another thread, someone posted that you can have both device ids and everything is supposed to work.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Tilde88:
Please let me kow if sec_source_newmodules works ok. I am most interested in that one, it should be fine. If it doesnt work, could you try the source_newmodules?

Thanks!!
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] tourbound129:
Thanks for the reply. I'm currently stock with Assistant running I just wanted to make sure the edits to Build.Prop wouldn't effect anything you did.

Edit: Flashed V5 over stock, no apparent issues. Google assistant persisted so I didn't have to run the app or manually edit Build.prop. Really snappy and fast. Been following the thread since the beginning but haven't made the time to flash until now. Really great work.

coincidentally after trying these new kernels my external sd card became write protected and cannot be formatted or used.. do you think it is just going bad or has something to do with the kernel modules

[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Tilde88:
Sd cards dont use permissions in linux. Either a module issue, or going bad. If you put the sd card in a pc does it work? Have you reflashed the 100% stock kernel with stock modules? If you are on one of the test kernels, it is possible that using the test kernel with the stock modules could do this

Can you take a picture and show me? What TWRP version are you on? Are you decrypted? What were you flashing? Are you sure your download wasn't corrupted?

Never even heard of a NOC error in twrp.

TWRP Version is 3.0.2-1 The Device is Decrypted yes. No mater what i flash if it is the rom or the kernel it will fail even tried coming both to one zip and it failed also (Same Green Screen When Loading up into Android), Yes I am sure the download was not corrupt as it is successful every time
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Tilde88:
So you are tryi g to reflash the file that you had already flashed before?

Go to TWRP --> Advanced Wipe -> Select Dalvik, system, data, and cache. Wipe only those. Do not wipe internal or micro sd card.

Flash v5.

If it still does not work, then it appears that something in the firmware has gone bad.

If v5 still does not work, you will have to flash the stock system.img and boot.img, as well as stock recovery (recovery is thr last step). Once you reflashed stock recovery, relock the bootloader and try to boot. If you still get the green screen, yiur device is defective and tmobile should replace. Since it is fully stock at that point they wont even know that you ever modded

I haven't dished yet, hesitant. I'll clean flash tomorrow when I have free time. Just use Bluetooth all day at work and am scared to lose it lol.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Tilde88:
Huh? Ohhh lol nvm , thought you were someone else. BT may be spotty for some people. But flashing the 100% stock kernel (not the tests) fixes bluetooth and fm. With stock kernel, you will lose certain tweaks, and lose color control, but bluetooth and fm will be good to go
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] lgkahn:
Memory card issue was b4 I tested your lastest modules. But with new card i did get corruption on first boot with

sec_source_newmodules_nomods could be coincidence. I chckdsk in windows and fixed it.

However this does work with Bluetooth.

I didn't test any of the others as I assume this is the primary one you want. Let me know.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Tilde88:
Sd must have been coincidence.

Hmm... Thats a shame about sec source newmodules. As you get the time to do so, please try the other pnes. Thanks so much for all your help!

Is anyone else able to flash and test the kernels?
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] lgkahn:
why is it a shame.. it works fine with bluetooth?

I'm also having issues with FM Radio from V5 of the Rom (didn't check on previous iterations). Not a big deal as this ROM offers many advantages. Just aggravates my OCD. :silly:

Viper doesn't require room access to run, you need root access to flash the files and modify the system...

I had to flash the rebloat.zip file because I was missing things like Capture+, Quickmemo and the stock LG Email application, which I need for my business' Exchange/Office 365 email account. Unfortunately it appears as if the stock LG Email application is now crippled on this ROM. I have 4 Office 365 Exchange email accounts and cannot add any of them. After manually configuring an email account's settings I get the toast message that says, "Connecting to server." The loading indicator spins for 10-20 seconds and then I it says, "Server unavailable. Try again later."

I can add those same accounts using the Gmail app without any problems, so it's definitely not a problem with the accounts.

Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions on how to resolve this? Thanks in advance.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Tilde88:
Yes those things are removed as stated in the OP

I recommend using Outlook, or BlueMail. Since MS Exchange and Outlook are the same protocol, there should be no problem.

Also, flashing the re-bloat.zip includes every single file I ripped out of the ROM. So if it doesn't work, I would blame the e-mail client.

Carrier-provided email clients suck. 100% of the time.

This includes, Samsung, LG, HTC, and well... All of them.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Tilde88:
You and I might know that, but not everyone understands the partitions, pathing and sudo privs, and stuff like that.

[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Tilde88:
OHH!!! I misread dude lol. I thought you said it doesn't work. I just re-read it. Then this is fantastic news!!!

Can you check if FM also works on sec_source_newmodules?

No need to flash the other kernels then, lol sorry. I just misread.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Tilde88:
I'll be back on to reply sometime tomorrow guys. I'll compile a v5.1 test kernel, hopefully it will be fully modded, and no bluetooth/fm issues.

Common sense isn't all that common

I wasn't trying to be facetious, just explaining why you won't find a request for SuperSU access. In layman's terms, root access is needed to modify system files, the flashing, or baking of Viper modified the system during installation, after that, no further system modification occurs, so no root permission is required after installation.

Apps that request su access, are doing so because at that very moment, they need to modify system files...

Common sense isn't all that common
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] pieces of cake:
Yikes. Thanks for the quick response. I probably should have made my post more clear. I'm looking for a solution to the problem, not an alternative or a workaround. I happen to like the stock email application, and it worked just fine before flashing this ROM. All of that considered, if Outlook is your idea of a good Exchange email application, I think it's safe to say we completely disagree on what it takes to make a quality Exchange email app.

Can anyone else assist me? Have any of you flashed the rebloat file and successfully added an Exchange email account to the LG Email application?

Thanks again

You're either trolling, or you think most other people are as helpless as you are (or once were).

One thing you are not is helpful, but I thank you for taking the time to reply.

If you guys read my post, you'd've recognized that I was ABLE to add the accounts in Gmail. That should have been a clue that getting the accounts on my phone using another email app wasn't the issue of concern, nor was it desirable.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] netgar:
Looking forward to get rid of this bt issues.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Tilde88:
Let's all be nice... I don't want any crap forming in my thread.

That said, if it didnt work for you by flashing it, then I suppose you can try adding the files from the rebloat.zip back into the actual rom.zip (everything except META-INF). Then reflash the rom.zip.

This will include all apps and files as if they were never gone. I am assuming the reason it does not work is something to do with a permission or some sort of dependency that for some reason does not activate or does not get called.

If you are dead-set in using LG Mail, then this would be the way.

I can understand you don't like Outlook mobile, but at least try BlueMail, it really isn't bad, if I'm not mistaken it's one of the best-rated ones out there. I only said Outlook, because I work in IT, and I figured you were an end-user who wouldn't know not to choose IMAP or POP for an Exchange account. Not trying to demean you or anyone, but statistically speaking, non-techy people outnumber techy people by a landslide.

I personally refuse to do work e-mail on my phone, but I know some people simply need it.

Hey, there's always OWA

:laugh:. (Now that's trolling)
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Tilde88:
Oh nonono, nvm, I didn't realize that last line of yours is a signature haha... It played along with the post so perfectly.

About the SU access, that is exactly correct. I think I posted that as a reply here some where... Could've been a PM lol.

What Bluetooth issues are people having? Seems to be working fine for me. I've got a Samsung Gear Fit2 and Adonit Snap stylus connected at all times and have been streaming music in my car via Bluetooth for the past two days without a problem.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Tilde88:
Yea I have no issues either. But there are some people who do have issues.

Some of the problems include: phone not re-pairing until reboot. Skip track/play+pause stops working from the bluetooth device (not the phone). Bluetooh won't auto reconnect. No bluetooth audio in calls.

Again, I don't have these issues, and most people seem to be clear of them. I have experienced one or two issues... Like my phone would do no bluetooth audio until I ended a call (had to be me, not the other side). If they hung up, my car kept thinking that I was still in a call. Only realized that because I saw the volume icon still showed the handset (like it does when you are on the phone). So I made a call and ended as soon as it started, and it went away. But this has only happened twice to me, and it was quite a while back.

Most people seem to be good, or at least good enough... But I can confirm the issues are real, and they have to do with me messing something up in the kernel source, or perhaps even I might have mix+matched some modules by accident (that's a nono)

Ha! Believe it or not, I actually own two IT companies. One does outsourced IT for small businesses and the other is a digital forensics and eDiscovery firm.

Thanks no problem. FM works fine for me also!!!

Just not the greatest reception.. viper works for music player or audiobook over headphones (audible) but not FM radio. Is it supposed to?
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Tilde88:
Whatever ViPER does on here, it does everywhere else.

I think that some apps simply just don't support it, I might be wrong though. I only tested with Pandora, and it worked great on my phone speaker. But not on bluetooth, and I dont have headphones to plug in and out.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] lgkahn:
i am able to repro my external sd card errors. if i delete a file it deletes but no additional space is gained.. if i then turn off and put card in pc it is corrupt and when i chkdsk and repair i have a found.000 directory.. it is like it is deleting files but not updating volume bitmap. do you think it is a driver or kernel issue .

both were with lexar 200 gb. cards.. i have a samsung 256 coming tomarrow.

will try with that..

or maybe go back to try with a lexar 128 i had which worked fine..

Another.problem it appears you had root explorer twice in system once in apps and once in.priv-apps

Anyway there is an update on Google play for it and it wouldn't install 505 error. I had to remove both, reboot then reinstall it.

The reason you can add them with GMail is because Google added Exchange Support in Gmail. As long as you have Gmail and the Gmail Exchange portion installed.

If you want your Exchange accounts to work within another application, you will need to get an app that supports Exchange within itself.

[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] BrokenWall:
Alright, but you could just go grab his flashable zip. Flash it and wipe cache and dalvik and reboot.

Yeah you will loose kcal support and the kernel. But the issues you so depend on and mention will be fixed completely. He is researching other fixes he can do with the kernel.

I rather just have the ROM with the Stock Kernel and wait til LG drops the source so they can build a proper kernel.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] netgar:
Broken Wall, all you did, you flashed Stock Kernel with 100% full stock modules in TWRP and wiped cashe and dalvik and reboot, right?

[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] bjevers:
Yes, but I didn't even wipe caches.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Tilde88:
Yes, those that have bluetooth issues, will also have BT disconnect issues. Also reconnect issues. Tapping the bluetooth device from your phone should allow an instant connection. (No need to wipe anything, just flash stock kernel from a few pages back).

5.1 kernel should be out some time this weekend, unless I get sidetracked.

As it turns out, the source from build v10d is fine, it was me botching something during compilation. Shouldn't be an issue once I zero-in on it (soon©).

Right, no need to wipe anything, just flash the stock kernel and BT/FM is fixed.

[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Tilde88:

Have you gone into TWRP and done a Format Data (button is titled as such). Note: This will delete all pictures, apps, documents, etc that you have placed in the internal memory.

After Formatting Data, flash SuperSU (or no-verity), go into the bootloader and do fastboot oem lock. reboot back to bootloader, do fastboot oem unlock. Boot back to TWRP and flash the STOCK ODEXd ROM? This is a 100% 1:1 ROM of how the phone came shipped. The only thing it does not do, is lock your bootloader, nor does it flash recovery (or the baseband, but that is nothing that we need at the moment).

You can find the STOCK ODEXd ROM in my other thread. The first link is the deODEX, then there is another link that is for ODEX. Try that out and let me know. (Also flash no-verity or SuperSU right after the STOCK rom flash.
