[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Mentalmuso:
I'm honestly just using this time between security updates for an update break. Ive been messing around with kernels and building from source. Ive actually been on aosp for a week and have noticed a couple of things that work way bettter on aosp. Such as Bluetooth audio and no screen ghosting. The test Rom I built was actually really usable. I forced the status bar up into the second screen too.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Mentalmuso:
As long as there is a form of root, then I have a form of mod flashing that works without a custom recovery. But I think root is most of the problem.

I have had that issue in the past. I ended up moving to a different rom and coming back to this. I also installed less audio mods and stick with viper. The issue went away. I also found if you turn orientation around sound sometimes works. It was weird. Though, I am on Verizon.

---------- Post added at 07:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:55 AM ----------

I need to output a log but does anyone have kernel crashes? Bright green screen. It seems to happen randomly less since I have reflashed this rom.

Lastly, tried switch to magisk and keep getting error out. I have to try again and see what the error is.. I am on the Verizon model.

[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] DrPhant0m:
I'm going to resurrect the discussion regarding SD card corruption, and ask if anyone has had luck by any method without having to wipe the card and reformat it.

When I flashed WETA the first time, I got the SD card corrupted message, but I thought I had solved it by flashing the Konverged kernel and restarting. However, now Konverged fails and aborts installation when I try to flash it. I don't have it in front of me right now, but the reason has something to do with the ramdisk.

I've flashed a deodexed stock ROM as well as Lineage OS today, and neither have produced the SD card corruption message. It has something to do with the contents of this ROM's installation zip. (I'm not blaming the ROM, but there is something in the main ROM zip that's making this happen)

Reading back through the thread, [MENTION=4553200]Mentalmuso[/MENTION] theorized it has something to do with supersu attaching itself, so I tried flashing WETA without SU, thinking that I'd flash it separately. However, when I choose not to flash SU, it stays at the LG Logo (and never makes the LG jingle sounds) forever. I've left it 20min or more, with nothing. There's no animation, so it may be frozen there. Why would choosing not to flash SU prevent it from booting? I've tried it twice so far, with battery pulls and full (dalvik/system/data/cache) wipes between them.

Any suggestions? I'm at work right now, so I can't dump my SD card and reformat it. (Don't have a card reader, and we're simply not allowed to connect USB storage to the computers) I would like to find another way... else I have to flash another ROM just to get through the day.

Thanks

I'm having some issues with the latest rom. Some of the LG apps that I downloaded are not showing up in my app drawer (all of the Home launchers have this issue as well as Nova Launcher), most notably LG Switch. Even if I sideload it, it still doesn't appear. I've had this happen before and sometimes it will show up, but I had to do a clean install today (Corrupted backup. I wiped everything before the install) and still not here. Also, The Dolby Atmos demo crashes when I try to run it, although the app itself (minus demo) works fine. Any ideas on either.

Thanks, JT

You mind elaborating on the Bluetooth audio part? I use Bluetooth 90%of the time and I never have a problem. Curious as to what specifically is better??

---------- Post added at 10:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:19 PM ----------

LG switch shows up as LG backup in mine. I have Nova. Or it's also under settings>general>backup & reset

---------- Post added at 10:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:21 PM ----------

You are probably going to be going down the rabbit hole even further if you are going to try fixing it without a reformat. Have you tried fixing corrupted sectors in Windows?

"LG switch shows up as LG backup in mine. I have Nova. Or it's also under settings>general>backup & reset"

Nailed it my friend!:good: It's in Backup & Reset. Thanks much.

Any idea on why my Dolby Atmos demo play freezes, then causes a FC when I try to close it? All other functions work fine. No big deal for sure, just curious.

Thanks again, JT
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] KUSOsan:
Not too sure. What kernel are you on? Im using the stock kernel but I'm also using ARISE instead of the ones that this mod installs. If I'm not mistaken I think I remember something about if the kernel is enforcing then Dolby can have problems. You might have to just reflash. Or you could try wiping data for both Atmos and the Dolby service

It's in the cache folder in root, all by its lonesome self (minus the folders themselves: fota, etc.) or at least it is on mine. It's 148mb and from the size of it appears to be a security update and/or minor fixes.

Haven't seen one myself, but the update.zip is around. Haven't installed it (at least on purpose) since I'm running WETA. Cache folder, 148mb is the size.

Regards, JT

---------- Post added at 09:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 PM ----------

Kernel is 3.38.31 (Latest WETA rom). SELinux is in permissive mode if that's what you mean (I'm still learning Linux Lingo). Tried the wipe on DA, but couldn't find the service. Didn't work. I'm beginning to think that I may have a corrupt zip, though it installed fine, unless there's a conflict with another app. Think I'll download it again and see what happens.

Thanks and regards, JT

You don't need magisk to get Snapchat working. Log in on Snapchat on an unrooted ROM. Root the ROM after you've logged in. Back up the data of SC using Titanium Backup. As long as you have that backup you can log in while rooted by restoring the backup. Mind you if you have multiple devices you can only log into​ Snapchat on one device. If you log into a different device while your login is active on another device, you just rendered your backup useless and won't be able to log in again while rooted until you repeat the process again
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] musclebadger:
I have had no luck on getting magisk on this rom. There were a few post that another user used and was able to run magisk. I read on another post that it may be the kernel that is causing the issue.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ZachJohnson:
Yeah, I think magisk problems are kernel related. I'm running the latest Weta here and the reStock kernel and I'm on the latest version of magisk with no trouble.

[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] DrPhant0m:
Let's add a little more confusion here...

I was having a heck of a time with root for some reason. Titanium Backup couldn't get root access (it didn't even try), but WETA tools asked and got permission. When SuperSU updates to 2.81 in the play store, and I update the binary... the ROM wouldn't boot. So I was sitting there without root on TiB, couldn't restore anything, and if I'd update SuperSU, I'd have to reflash.

I tried flashing a few other kernels... and they all fail in recovery, having an issue with ramdisk.

So, I looked at other ROMs and this thread, and saw mention of Magisk. Retracing my steps from when I had this ROM installed a few weeks ago, I installed Magisk from the Play store, flashed it via the app, and rebooted. Then I uninstalled superSU, and Titanium Backup works. Magisk still says SuperSU 2.79 under "properly rooted" but everything works OK. Except for the fact that I don't actually have a SU manager app. I've seen mention of MagiskSU, but I can't seem to find it to install or flash anywhere.

So... in my case, things *only* work well with Magisk installed.

Does this seem accurate to anyone? I'm on a US996 factory unlocked V20 (not the US Cellular one)

I'm looking forward to what [MENTION=4553200]Mentalmuso[/MENTION] has cooking next. That AOSP tease has me interested. Would it have the V20 camera with the wide angle options, as well as second screen support? :good: & :good:
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Mentalmuso:
It's pretty much the opposite. SuperSU is the recommended root method. And you shouldn't update the binary using the app. That's typically only reliable for Nexus and pixel devices in my experience.

What's the stock video player for this ROM? This "Video Player 3.1" has ads?
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Aaren11:
Awesome news!

Can't wait to see what you come up with on the AOSP front Mental. The lack of second screen even for a bit more notification shade room has kept me stuck on LG based ROMs.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] DamienFox:
Anyone else get an OTA update notification for the rom itself from T-mo? I have had the 'please restart and install' notification for a day now.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] idkwhothatis123:
Tbh, I tried Magisk on several roms and found it to be rather underwhelming. When i ran it on EmotionOS, it literally lost root once a day. I made flashing Magisk v12 part of my morning routine. Ive used SuperSU since its inception and never have had a problem. It certainly has a long way to go for me.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] androiddiego:
Here's how I got rid of a previous update:

Rename otacerts.zip in /system/etc/security to otacerts.bak.

The full update is found in the cache partition called update.zip. Move the update.zip file from /cache directory (I put it on the sd card).

The next time you get the notification, selected to install it. See the attached. It said rebooting. It won't reboot because the necessary file is gone. Wait 10 seconds and touch the recents key and close the window. Done!

I rebooted the phone and no nag.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Mervingio:
You can delete the update zip too right?
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] androiddiego:
Yes, you can just delete it. Unfortunately just deleting it doesn't stop the notifications. Something gets triggered in the update program that won't go away. But the method I outlined removes that trigger.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] WishRyder:
I learned long ago to use titanium backup to freeze the "FOTA Update" app, the two "System updates" apps, and the "Update Center" app. There's also an option under "Developer Options" for "Automatic system updates" that I tend to disable. Not sure which one of these actually accomplishes the task, or if all of them are necessary, but you shouldn't get update notifications afterwards.

Worked perfectly. Thank you my friend!
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] pyrorob:
So have a question, I'm running magisk (unofficial,v13, works perfectly) and I've noticed that since magisk mirrors /system, once it's loaded I am unable to load any of the UI mods in weta rom control, im assuming that it's modifying the mirrored /system and not the actual one, so that upon reboot none of the mods are kept (which is what magisk is supposed to do afaik) anyway around this that is known? Apart from using the substratum weta UI mods theme? (Not as feature full)

The only solution that I can come up with is to reflash weta rom with stock kernel/super su, mod UI in weta control, execute, button combo into recovery, scrub super su, reflash stock kernel, flash magisk back and then the mods stay (which is what hinted to me whats going on) it's a little annoying having to do that anytime I like to change anything.. any advice?
