for now only try some gaming with the big cores lowered. keep the small as they are cause they work all the time and the big ones activate only on a heavy load.

ofc you understand that if your temp goes that high there isn't anything else we can do.

propably the phone has issues...............

mine while on plug and charging , after 10 reboots and still has 42~45 C................................ i've never seen it going that high. imma test a game to see. whats your favorite ? :p

installing asphault 8 now. lets see if my temp will go high. ill keep it plugged in. also ill keep youtube playing music to hasten the procedure
[G4 Android Development] inso420:
You think it might be the battery heating up the phone? Need to try my other one. I actually have the issue with Pokemon go which is not so graphic demanding. Haven't installed any other game at the moment while testing Tom's.
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
running stress test now (keeping cpu on 100), youtube and asphault and cpu is hardly going up.........

it's around 45 C again. i even used 2 lighters to heat it up a bit now to get it up faster.

at 48 C it stoped charging so fast and the temp is stabilised at 49 C.

now at 49 C small cores work on 960mhz which is the safe speed i have set in kernel and script and charging is down to around 1400mA/h.

i think your g4 is one of those with some motherboard problem.

now whatever i do it is very very slowly going up. slow like 49.1, 49.2 .....

yeah the phone feels like a hot sausage but it still doesn't go that high like 90C.

i think 90C is wrong.........

You may have a hardware issue. you better disable one of the 2 big cores and lower their max freq. before it dies forever.

EDIT:

you want me to make a script for you to do it automatically on boot or you gonna use k.adiutor ?
[G4 Android Development] inso420:
Dammit... My motherboard is changed after that bootloop issue. Will have a look at the battery too. Please if its not too much of an issue could you make a script?
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
delete the 90balanced if you got it to execute on boot. don't keep 2 files it will confuse things.
[G4 Android Development] inso420:
[MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION] sitting at 45c idle. its not right... Battery at 38c
[G4 Android Development] sirsomething:
[MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION] Does the latest kernel available in the second post also disable the big cores? The phone became horribly laggy when disabling them
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
it disables them only during boot mate to ensure that the devices that have a problem with the motherboard will boot.

this small lag now is normal. (if there is any) cause i have secure limited the cores and fixed the LG bugs. so many g4 have problems that i can't have cores running crazy all the time.

stock will always be safe for all uses. thats my idea. afterwards if anyone wants "more" he can use adiutor or we will use a thread to share scripts.
[G4 Android Development] sirsomething:
Ah okay! Makes sense ;)

[MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION] If I want v6 from v5 dirty flash are possible? I have tons of app and setting. I'm lazy man :)

[G4 Android Development] RealCaracas:
Dirty upgrade

One simple (maybe dumb) question....

Coming from V5, If I dirty flash V6, Do I need to check again on Aroma all the apps that I added on V5 installation??... Also, Magisk should be reinstalled right?

Thanks!!!
[G4 Android Development] Marchinho6:
Now i have dirty flashed v6 from v5.

Yes, do you check the same app you choose in v5 installation because the aroma setting wipe system partition before installing all the app.
[G4 Android Development] RealCaracas:
Thank you!!
[G4 Android Development] eriuzz:
the v6 works with the h811 or still the wierd korean bug ?
[G4 Android Development] HorstiG:
Great ROM and Kernel, thank you.
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
i asked who has javascript and c++ knowledge and a h811 to take the template and create Freedom Nougat for h811 and nobody replied.

So if it's on me again, ill do it when i have the time to force h811 firmware on my h815 and then fix it.
[G4 Android Development] NighthawkXL:
This is affecting the v4 and v3 versions for the H811 as well I take it? Both of them are giving me symlink errors if I try to install either of them.
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
no thats aroma bug.

the aroma doesn't know if there is a symlink error thats something in /system and synlinks errors will affect the boot to rom.

it happens randomly.

EDIT:

use always latest 3.1.1-1 or newer twrp and if the aroma installer sometimes gives errors just re-try
[G4 Android Development] NighthawkXL:
So just keep trying to flash it until it decides to work?

*Edit - Saw your edit. xD
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
yeah, it will work it doesn't have a choice hehe

Since it worked for many people it will work for you too. Latest twrp and re-try. I guess one or two times. It isn't a bug that happens all the time

finally a good word !

you are the only ones ! people don't press Thanks and don't post something nice. They only post to ask for help for several things !

At least they all should know to press Thanks. The thanks meter is something that creates "trust" in XDA. Big thanks meter means that this dev is actually doing something here !
[G4 Android Development] akorenyok:
Please describe step by step from Rom MM to your Rom V6. I do not want to get a brick. There is a sad experience with LG G2.

Many thanks !!!!!
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
i didn't answer you the 1st time because i have said this many times over and over and i don't even get a Thanks clicked.

If people keep being ignorant i will start ignoring them too.(not you. generally)

So,(for the last time and all will use the search box from now on)

i didn't add that in the op because its basic knowledge.

when changing sdk version we need to have the right firmware and of course full wipe.

TWRP has always to be up to date. Always watch TWRP thread in all phones. The TWRP developers (all of them) push updates in the thread because it either takes time for the update to be approved and uploaded or they need testers to be sure that the "fix" of an issue is working good.

So i skip the part of TWRP in steps. It's a "must have always".

step 1. 2nd post download v29A firmware (modem and bootloader)

step 2. download rom.

step 3. boot to TWRP

step 4. If not Full wipe, then definately Advance Wipe -> /data partition.

step 5. Flash firmware

step 6. Flash Rom.

Reboot.

The same steps go for downgrade to a lower sdk version.

When coming from different sdk wiping data is not recommended. It has to be done otherwise some apps will have bugs and maybe crash.

When moving from lineage/aosp based to stock based or reverse the same.

We can only safe dirty flash to same sdk and base.
[G4 Android Development] akorenyok:
Thank you very much for your answer!

I'm not a programmer or a developer, I'm just a layman.

I think not only I do not have the opportunity to buy a new smartphone every year.

Thanks to you, G4 turns into a new device!

edit: What is this sdk and step 5. Flash firmware
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
Firmware contain all the partitions with the drivers.

sdk is another word of software development kit. It includes APIs , app programming interface.

In simple words think of it as the Android version.

Moving to a newer Android version 6 to 7 we need to wipe data. Moving from a newer to an older 7 to 6 the same
[G4 Android Development] akorenyok:
All clear!!!

THANK YOU!

I have with your help a new LG G4. It has never been so good. Donation follows and many thanks.
[G4 Android Development] HorstiG:
Only one question, is there a black theme with white icons? That's not so good :)
[G4 Android Development] HorstiG:
I can't find any at LG Store
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
no those r part of the ui and substratum also can't theme those on stock based roms.

it has the rom to have OMS support to theme those. Otherwise only if we edit the UI which is not adviced yet, it will cause systemui to crash in time.

Only the color can change with themes from lg store.

EDIT:

same with the notification background color. they r white.

(by the way)

i successfully ported the LG apps at my op3T. and our apps can be themed with substratum too. Those that turn black.

Also i checked in overlays and i saw that LG used the same way to theme black the apps. In overlays you will find the LG black overlays ;)

Interesting information for other who wanna port LG apps to other phones

[G4 Android Development] eltigre4jc:
Great ROM. I have it for 2 days. Very fast and smooth!

thank you [MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION] .

Regarding the lock screen. IN Nougat is there the possibility, to show the pattern only when I touch the screen, like in MM? Right now, I need to swipe, to view the pattern dots

And regarding WhatsApp. It seems that doze, sleeps WhatsApp sometimes, even if I checked the ignore optimization for it. My messages don't seem to be received when they are sent, only when I open whatsapp...

I know I had this problem also on stock MM, but never in LOS based Roms... I write this, maybe someone has an idea of how to solve this...
[G4 Android Development] stefan.kurz:
Try the push notification fixer from ps. Maybe it helps you.
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
Yeah nougat lock screen misses that.

I can't add new feature its too hard for one person alone to do that. Adding new feature means to add smali , add template , add .xml with the settings and edit the existed ones in case the new feature conflicts to another. That needs a team of developers or 2 weeks no eat no sleep no sex no work until I do lol :D

Could do it in a few days only if this feature was present at another LG nougat but its not.

About WhatsApp dozing.

This doesn't happen here. Its also on lineage based roms and it's a gapps bug. Blocked wakelock or block core service.

To explain this.

Yes all apps doze but there are triggers that wake-up those apps to get an app service do something.

About messages now, I had searched it before because it happened to me too many times but on los based.

GCM trigger wakes up gcm core service. Gcm core service in addition broadcasts and triggers all gcm services and triggers in the apps. the messages apps for example use that service to check messages.

Did you by any chance used any 3rd party app to restore data ?

Or did you block without knowing a gcm wakelock ?

The only thing I can think of as a fix for that is to remove whatsapp , dirty flash gapps aroma 7.0 x64 to check only apps you need and check if dirty flashing fixed it. If not , then you need a clean flash of the rom and careful what you restore.

I know you will think wtf all that for whatsapp but it's the only way.

Ofc you can still press to pin WhatsApp in recent apps and never swipe to clean it.

i have not seen this. try this app too. You never know whats in google play store. some apps actually are good.
[G4 Android Development] sartana:
I try some substratum theme, some theme change notification area too, but then background and font are both dark. I'm trying interaction between some substratum layer and lg theme to have background dark and font white

Inviato dal mio LG-H815 utilizzando Tapatalk
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
even better if you can find the string thats responsible for the black font so that we can change it to white :)

Search xda , google and in the themes (in git where they do the updates).

in the installed themes you won't find anything because the themes that can actually get installed are those that don't give error. Those that don't give error don't contain a string for font.

I have it in mind sometime to search too, but with all these here and there since we r only 2 devs on stock roms................no time for that yet

H815 29A firmware

All of you on Nougat firmware that want to get rid of that boot splash that tells to visit a link

dirty flash this 29A firmware with the old black splash from MM.

You will still have the warning to re-lock the bootloader but it won't be that flashy.

On MM we only had this warning on the upper left corner, now we have it with orange font in the middle of the screen.

At least without the splash too it's not that annoying.

Thanks to our [MENTION=5545101]steadfasterX[/MENTION]

Tried to flash, problem flashing the 60fps mod, and infinite boot starting up
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
Infinite boot by flashing a small .xml file that changes the media profiles of the camera ?

Ok me I press reboot at g4 and I get bootloop at pc.

Sorry but the bootloop is somewhere else. Those mods are already flashed more than 1000 times and you are not the 1st to flash them.

Hey,

i did it. Installed your Rom. Till now all smooth and stable. Congrats to this great work!
[G4 Android Development] RealCaracas:
After 6 days of daily use....

After 6 days of using this great ROM I wanted to comment my experience.

I have the device (H815) with me almost like 2 years and I unlocked it just to install this ROM, so [MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION] thanks for encouraging me to do it...:good:

Installation:

The first try was faulty... Aroma installer froze and I had to pull out the battery (neither combination of buttons restarted or powered off my LG). After turn it o,n my phone was soft bricked (I think), I couldn't enter recovery or bootloader, just stuck at boot logo. I had to do the Volume Up Key + Connecting phone to my laptop to enter download mode and with LG UP I could revive it installing MM 20e which was the one I had before.:laugh:

After this I installed TWRP again, and everything was great during install. [MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION] Just to comment that I didn't installed Nougat modem nor bootloader (my boot screen still shows the unlock status on the right upper corner) is this OK?? :confused:

Daily use

It feels like a new phone, everything is smooth, no lags, no annoying bugs (I had in v5 the SW Update error popup but I just disabled the app, it's good that v6 fixed that). About battery life and heat, I think is the same as MM, although after installing v6 it feels like battery and temperature are more stable. I also installed Magisk and root is working perfect... For SafyNet I installed Universal Fix from downloads...

Conclusions

If you are still not convinced to unlock and to install a custom ROM, I think now is to moment to do it... Even if LG bring us officially Nougat I don't think it will be better than these improved ROMS....

[MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION] Thanks once again!...
[G4 Android Development] pedrogcsb:
Alright, not sure what is causing this, but I'm not able to boot this ROM. Tried with 6.0/7.0 bootloader, it's not working, it just stays on LG logo forever. Any ideas?
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
Mate im not a magician to see what you are doing there wrong. Caracas here did the impossible, he has nougat with mm bootloader, lol.

Maybe he only flashed aboot from somewhere

thank you for your kind words !

its a pleasure to read nice comments from time to time !

About the firmware , you have to flash it. Flash the one with _no_splash in the name.

I still can't believe how you made it boot and work without the nougat firmware. you are one of a kind !

Yeah at the 1st nougat release i only blocked the updater to avoid any mistake. if anyone with TWRP press to upgrade to v30 it would be a disaster !

At v6 i did a more organised work, i carefully removed the Software updater and only kept the app updater.

You really have to see v7 im preparing with new kernel ;) ll upload it tomorrow. dirty flash it as usual. :good:

Changelog in the aroma.
[G4 Android Development] pedrogcsb:
I'm not doing anything wrong. I've been flashing ROM's for ages and this is the first time that happens. I'm getting some error's at the end of the flash, but I can't see where.

set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed.

Not sure if this is the problem
[G4 Android Development] RealCaracas:
That's great!!.. I will be flashing it as soon as you release it... :cool:

About having not installed modem and bootloader from Nougat, I have no idea... I unlocked using LG guide, then installed TWRP and then your ROM...

In any case... Installing them should give me better performance?... The only thing I detect right now is that it takes more time to connect to the mobile network than MM use to take...

Thanks!
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
yeah you must flash the firmware to get better signal and faster.

But not yet. Wait for v30 since it works like that. v29 may be very nice but its a beta.

if you have any problems with the signal then sure, flash it.

thats not something happening here. i can't fix something that doesn't exist. i hope you understand.......

check whats your twrp build. flash latest as advised in the op. if you still get some error , re-download.

Also let the phone rest cause the higher the temp the more twrp will lag and bug

dirty flash :good:

I flashed it dirty. No Problem till now. I'm using Nova Launcher Prime but i have installed the g6 for testing. Should i remove it?

Btw, nice Rom

How can i remove the g6 theme?
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
1) system app remover app from play store

2) file root explorer delete /system/priv-app/G6UX

3) or just ignore it. it doesn't do any harm and it doesn't increase any background load. its just a useless theme. dirty flashing tomorrow v7 or waiting for v8 to dirty flash will auto-remove it
[G4 Android Development] stefan.kurz:
I didn't install face unlock. Does it really work? That would be awesome!

Yes. And its faster than on MM. This time face unlock detects face faster
