New Build 2017-05-05, including Security Level 2017-05-05. It cannot be better, great job!
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] jeremywh7:
I installed the 4/28 build 39hrs ago, with the latest Gapps then su, and after charging, it has used 5% battery in 32 hours. Zero wireless issues; been using 5GHz. The only problem I had is the typical initial setup issue, needing to setup wireless before it would continue. Google setup never ran, and thus the app restore/etc functions. Good opportunity for some spring cleaning I guess. :) I ran the 7.1.2 AOSP for a long time, always would get sluggish internet after a while; working great here!

Which means... time to try the 5/5 build now... :P
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Nidz9:
Thanks.

The 2017-05-05 build is running beautifully.

The early days of 4.2.2 stock is long forgotten.

Thanks to the Lineage Team.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] fefifofum:
Logs please. Wifi was fixed long ago. Anyone else with this issue?

LG stock gamma was too low, so I increased it (from ~1.8 to ~2.2). I also lowered the brightness to compensate the increase of gamma. That was almost two years ago, and most users have been happy with it. But please, if you aren't feel free to improve it yourself. These are the commits I used:

Hello [MENTION=3276094]paulomodesto[/MENTION], don't miss me, I'm always around. Development continues, so don't worry about that.

I think that's a gapps related issue (opengapps). Try with delta gapps, I think the issue is not present there.

Last update failed via OTA, and manual download if screen off also fails.

[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] giovaorama:
I get some random freeze and then the tablet automatically reboot (a complete reboot from the lg logo, not just a soft reboot).

I look inside the last kernel log just after the reboot , but i can't find anything logged.

The log end like this:

[MENTION=5339753]giovaorama[/MENTION]: from what I see in the log there is an untrusted app trying to access a system variable, maybe through root. That app is trying to send something (tx_dropped). Review the apps that have root permissions and start from there.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] dark0shark:
And a typo in the logging routine: missing "c" in connection.speed. ;)
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] giovaorama:
I find that the app that cause all that logs is "meteor", an app to test network speed.

after update to 14.1-20170512-nightly - stuck in Boot animation

Hi.

After updating from

lineage-14.1-20170505-nightly-v500-signed.zip

to

lineage-14.1-20170512-nightly-v500-signed.zip

my v500 is stuck in the boot animation.

( I waited a couple of hours!)

I tried re-flashing 20170512 via TWRP - no luck

I also tried reverting to 20170505 but still the NO luck :(

Any ideas how to solve this??

Thanks for helping
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] sysak:
I did the same thing (flashed 0512 over 0505) and everything works flawlessly. I'd advise you to redownload system and gapps, make sure you are running twrp 3.1.0.0 and wipe system & dalvik+cache and reflash again.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] tmihai20:
I had some minor issues downloading the build from last Friday (May 12th), but I had no issues once it finished everything and it told me to reboot into recovery to apply the OTA. I did not even had to reflash OpenGapps anymore and I did not even realize it when I did my first OTA a few weeks ago. It feels really good to have weekly updates, it makes me smile everytime I see the notification to upgrade. My G Pad feels like a Nexus now.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Brennusbr:
Hi,

Live display automatic shift isn't working anymore. It stays at the day mode all the time. I am not sure when this began to happen, but it's been like that in the last builds.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Charles IV:
Hi, I get that you said that custom kernels aren't supported in the op, is there a way to support them from within the device tree or something like that?

Thanks
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] fishears:
I don't think this ever worked in Lineage. I now use f.lux instead. Much more configurable & reliable (requires root).
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] fishears:
They're not supported as in you won't get any help here if you use one. This doesn't mean people can't develop kernels that will work with the ROM.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] dark0shark:
TWRP 3.1.1-0 is out now and installs ok, changelog see https://twrp.me/site/update/2017/05/19/twrp-3.1.1-0-released.html
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Charles IV:
Ok, thanks, I am trying to develop a custom kernel, and it was just that everytime I tried to flash the boot.img, it boot looped, and I had to flash the whole ROM instead.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] lightwars:
Just a guess: do you bump! your boot.img before flashing? Otherwise it wont work. The boot.img of thr rom is bumped.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] xelyt:
I have switched from ext4 to f2fs file system for /data and /cache and it seems that 720p 60fps videos in youtube are now playing a little better than before although sometimes there are still audio sync issue but lesser than before (now some videos plays without issues even if i manually set 720p 60fps)
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] tmihai20:
Since Netflix started to look into unlocked and rooted devices I wanted a way to hide root on my V500. I took a leap of faith and I installed Magisk. You just have to activate Magisk Hide from the options, them check the apps you do not want to see root anymore. I just got an update for the Netflix app this way. I have hidden root from all Google Apps as well, because Netflix is using Google apps to determine this. The only drawback is that after the regular OTA I lost root and I had to install Magisk manually from TWRP. Magisk seems to play really well with LineageOS.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] xelyt:
You don't have to flash Magisk after every OTA if you do this:

1) create a folder named FlashAfterUpdate in internal storage

2) download the latest Magisk zip file and place it in the FlashAfterUpdate folder

3) download this script 99-flashafterupdate.sh (save it as text file and remove the .txt extension once downloaded) and place it in /system/addon.d/ with rwxr-xr-x (755) permissions.

The script will flash anything (Magisk in this case) in FlashAfterUpdate folder (alphabetically) after the addon.d restore process so you can use it to automatically flash everything that needs to be flashed after every OTA.

All credits goes to osm0sis for the script (link to the original post)
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] jeremywh7:
I figured I would try Magisk after updating to the 5/19 ROM yesterday (followed by OpenGapps aroma, then Magisk su & app; booted fine). I enabled Hide and selected Netflix and all the Google apps. No problem there; SafetyNet passed (failed when I initially tried it before enabling Hide).

Then I went to edit my build.prop, and Total Commander popped up with root access, still no problem, and I could set /system to r/w. However, nothing I tried (including various settings in Magisk) would let me save the build.prop; I would always get an error. TC does show up in the Magisk app as well (and no, I didn't hide root for TC). I thought maybe there was an inherent inability for systemless root to change files in /system, but in my searches, some say its an issue and others say it's no problem. Is this expected, or would editing build.prop inherently fail SafetyNet anyway? Some posts (for other devices) said to edit build.prop in recovery/adb.

EDIT - I found this; sounds like I need to use the things in there for build.prop changes "Because changing /system in Nougat breaks advanced features."

Also, I tried to open No Frills CPU Control, and it immediately gives an error that it can't find root. Is this because some root apps just don't work with systemless root? I didn't have any issues with these things using the Lineage root add-on, which I used before.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] tmihai20:
[MENTION=5441741]jeremywh7[/MENTION]: Total Commander had issues modifying files inside root or system partition for a while now (I joined the beta program as well). Touching anything inside the root or the system partition would make Safetynet check to fail. Some apps do not go well with systemless root. I use Kernel Adiutor. SafetyNet check only passed after I used Magisk Hide on Google Apps and some important system apps. That check failed before hiding root. I am pretty satisfied with my tablet and with LineageOS as it is now.

I think you should copy build.prop locally somewhere, create a backup copy and then edit build.prop. You could try to overwrite the existing build.prop and try to force Total Commander to remount /system as read-write (as read-only first if is seems to be mounted as read-write).
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] jeremywh7:
[MENTION=2782481]tmihai20[/MENTION] thanks man...figures I was excited to have finally found an ES File Explorer replacement (TC + LAN & FTP plugins). As for build.prop, I've only been changing lcd_density anyway, so I guess that's not really necessary anymore since Nougat can adjust the size in Settings -> Display.

I wonder if there's a module/script to make Magisk get apps to work w/ systemless, which otherwise don't...more research tonight.

i can't made a clean flash of latest Lineage, when the tablet boot up initial Lineage setup can't turn on wifi (or something like that) and i can't set my tablet as a new device in any case, because wizard set up crash...someone can help me?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] tmihai20:
[MENTION=6372348]snke[/MENTION]: wipe everything, reflash LineageOS only, go through the steps, then reboot into recovery and flash GApps. I had the same issue yesterday and this is how I fixed it.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] snke:
And to restore my account backup? With this procedure i can't
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] jeremywh7:
From the OP [I was using OpenGapps, but haven't done a clean install since]:
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] tmihai20:
[MENTION=6372348]snke[/MENTION] and everybody else: I do not have a problem with flashing something else, I just LOVE the Aroma and the configurability. I do not want to go through dozens of packages when flashing. I went for Beans Dynamic Gapps and the Setup Wizard did not crash anymore. I used the full package. I remember using it when I had my Nexus 5 and I did not have any issues.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] snke:
Me too i love Aroma Open Gapps! But Open Gapps sometimes have bugs like this :rolleyes: I solved with Delta Gapps
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Wingchundub:
I've gone to install this on one of my childrens v500's and when rom boots and get to the WELCOME TO YOUR LG-V500 screen, you get 2 option:- 1. COPY YOUR DATA

2. SETUP AS NEW.

When i press number 2 option i always get SETUP WIZARD KEEPS STOPPING, CLOSE APP.

Why am i getting this and how can i resolve it?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] tmihai20:
[MENTION=4531421]Wingchundub[/MENTION]: you have to practically read some posts above yours. I have given a solution a few times and I am not repeating myself.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Wingchundub:
I did, but none actually mention the actual wording ive stated, otherwise i would had not posted and resolved myself.

But i can assume it is this? which still does not state that it resolves the issue i have, i am guessing here.

"wipe everything, reflash LineageOS only, go through the steps, then reboot into recovery and flash GApps. I had the same issue yesterday and this is how I fixed it."
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] tmihai20:
No, actually 2 posts above yours. Use Beans Dynamic Gapps or Delta Gapps, mini or full, whatever bakes your cookie :) Setup wizard should not crash anymore.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] jeremywh7:
Looks like this has been fixed...from the LOS Changelog Summary:
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] dsbnz:
20170602 ROM appears to hang near end of install, and doesn't complete. Tried twice, same thing. Went back to 20170526 which installs fine.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] dark0shark:
No problem here, installed fine as every time. Did you check the hash sum of full downloaded zip?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] madd0g:
Just slide down the notification bar and enable Wi-fi, you don't even need to connect.

But seems to be the default since June 2nd build.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] jeremywh7:
Installed fine for me too, along with 02 June Open Gapps aroma.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] mackeev:
No need to re-install gapps. One time is enough.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] paulomodesto:
What is the difference about Aroma Gapps from other pack?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] jeremywh7:
Except that removes the aroma changes and Google app overrides; I've tried it. I.e. the Lineage browser comes back.

Less important, but still a difference​...the reinstall updates the system apps.

Anyone else suffering a bad battery life at idle? I usually leave the tablet for a day and use it in the evenings with Wi-Fi set to off when screen is off. The first day it idles at flat battery usage, but next day it starts going down fast. Before I flashed LOS, the stock Kitkat idled fine for 5 days, still being at 83%.

The run down of the graph below: noticed drain, then rebooted, which seems to have stopped it. In the evening I used the gpad (sharp decline) followed by a day in idle. After that it suddenly started to fall faster.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] madd0g:
Checked a bit more with BBS and there's no app keeping it alive.

I've seen this post about an idle issue on the jira tracker : https://jira.lineageos.org/browse/R...ira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel

Does anyone have the 27th April build of v500, so I can try it out? The older builds are deleted from the LOS server. If not, I'll just flash CM13 on it, because in this state it's useless, unless I just power it down each time.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] mackeev:
Any special reason you don't do it already?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] tmihai20:
[MENTION=2562042]madd0g[/MENTION]: why don't you do a proper debugging? Why not see what app is causing the drain? You cannot expect an unofficial ROM (even if coming from LineageOS) to behave like the old KitKat from LG. I had a worse battery life on KitKat LG than any of the other ones (the Korean Lollipop, the AOSP MarshMallow or this LineageOS). If you are restoring apps from KitKat, that alone could be the cause of your issue.

I would start with a fresh install, update all Google Apps and then watch it for battery drain. I would then install some of the apps I would use. I do not have my G Pad with me, I gave it away in the family. LineageOS was by far the best ROM in regards to features, stability, updates and battery life.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] madd0g:
Do you have the 27 April build, so I can test it out or in your words do some "proper debugging"? At least then I can count out the ROM or my set up. Regarding that, I know how to set a device up, I had some experience since 2010.

---------- Post added at 09:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:11 PM ----------

Why would I do it, if I don't have to if the device drains like it should in idle with Wi-Fi off at screen off, instead of draining?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] jesuita:
Could someone look at this and try to see what's causing the disconnects?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] paulomodesto:
My WiFi disconnects when screens off, because if I start downloading something if the screen goes off for a certain time the download fails.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] jesuita:
Here us disconnecting while the screen is on as well. The log above shows that.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] xelyt:
I did some tests and i found that the culprit is doze. You can see this with an app that force doze when screen is off (for example naptime) and a internet speed meter; when you start a download it stops few second after you turn screen off (speed drops to 0kbs), and that's because tablet enter in doze mode (wifi is still connected by the way).

I also tried with gEnableAutomaticTxPowerControl=0 and McastBcastFilter=0 in wcnss_qcom_cfg.ini but it doesn't fix the issue, so i assume it is not a wifi driver related issue.

EDIT: it seems that chrome is affected by that issue but stock browser isn't and i think that it's because when you download a file with stock browser, the download is managed by the download manager (you can see it in the files app) which is automatically in the doze whitelist, but when you download a file in chrome the download is managed by chrome itself which is not in doze whitelist so a workaround is adding chrome (or whatever browser you are using) to the whitelist in settings/battery/battery optimizations
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] madd0g:
So, not a single soul with the 27th April build? And yeah, it seems to be something with Doze/keeping Wi-Fi running more as it should.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] xelyt:
I can confirm that there are still some random disconnects (already 2 today). Also I don't know if the same thing happens to you but wifi scan often takes a lot (more than 30 seconds) to find the 2.4 ghz saved network.

[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] madd0g:
Ok, flashed CM13 20161004 build and it idles like it should - flat when screen & Wi-Fi off. This ROM used 1% per hour.

Since I can't test older builds then 5th May, because they aren't available for downloading (seriously, storage of older builds is cheap, perhaps store them on Mega) I can't compare them. Something is wrong with recent LOS builds, so until that's taken cared of: LOS = POS.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] jeremywh7:
I found an April 28 build in my internal storage; didn't show up in my downloads until I searched through the internal storage path.

Also, for reference, I did some checking on the June 9 build after charging the tablet Friday night, the next morning it was still at 100% battery after running 5 hours. Then updated to the June 16th build 25 hrs ago, and has always been flat at idle; down to 45% now since we've been using it quite a bit, but there are four long stretches that are flat at idle.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] tmihai20:
[MENTION=5441741]jeremywh7[/MENTION]: I highly doubt that April 28th build will solve his problems. He already concluded that LineageOS is a piece of you know what. We all can read between the lines. It amazes me how some people that have some experience and run into issues come to the conclusion that the only software is to blame. Seniority means nothing when someone behaves like that and expect others to solve their issues for them.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Xoxu:
For me I never had any problem of battery with los.

I can leave the tablet on for 2 days with WiFi on and have the battery down for only a couple of percentage.

But if I play on it for the day I have to recharge it each day.

This tablet start to be old, that mean the battery too and she start to have a "couple" of cycle charge/discharge, never good for a battery.

It's maybe for that some of you start to have battery issue also
