[LG G5 Questions & Answers] wolfu11:
He's right about the lack of good sources I had an H830 and the roms for it take away useful features for the lg g5. And all have the same bugs. I tried them but kept going back to stock.

There used to be a time when custom roms made the phone better. That time seems to have passed, it is getting harder and harder to root carrier phones, not just lg.

The rs988 is a smooth running phone, with root we get full control of our phone. If you are not happy with that feel free to port over a rom, but please stop asking for dev support.

We are on our own with this phone.

I'm kinda glad this phone has been abandoned and looked upon so poorly.

I bought a brand new rs988 build date 3/17 for 249.00 B&H Photo about 6 weeks ago. The build quality is better, the screen is better, and no gps issues.

Since the Nougat update the phone is so much improved but if you don't like Nougat you can always downgrade back to marshmallow. (benefit of unlocked bootloader)

I bought genuine batteries from NewEgg recently for 5.99 a piece.

It's one of the few unlocked phones that work on Verizon.

But for me the "always listing" (just like the pixel) very few phones have that feature. The removable battery, the IR blaster, expandable storage are requirements.

If I need waterproofing I throw on my fre lifeproof I bought new for 20 bucks.

Just because something is hard doesn't mean it's not worth it. This phone has been given up on too quickly.

At the current price I wouldn't be surprised if some come back to it.

Peace
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Unscedeo:
Yes, I understand everyone's thoughts about development stopping for the LG G5. I am rooted and the stock ROM is excellent, I was just simply inquiring about custom ROM status. Didn't mean to bug or annoy any developers. It would just be nice if there was support, that's all.

By the way, could you send me the link to this? That price is just insane. The lowest I've seen is $11 at Walmart.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] onestyle007:
Tbh even though I have an h850 I don't see development stopping for custom ROMs on G5, it's being worked on. Slowly yeah,it's summer time,can't expect anyone to give up on some holiday and enjoyment to tinker around. Most of the stuff is already there to support RS988. LineageOS is official for G5,Mokee is official for G5 (2 versions on both for now), besides NFC bug(that's being worked on and there's already a half working solution) Bluetooth bug (not syncing to some products but working) and video saving( just a matter of time when it will be fixed) G5 in general is a fully supported by custom ROMs.We have a lot of unofficial builds too. Getting an official build instead of unofficial one is an advantage not a deal breaker and building your own build isn't that hard anyway. I've studied that for 5 days and have a build for H850 already. And it just took me 5 days cause of my slow internet speed. So a negative attitude won't do any good, positive thinking,catlogs, sharing your findings, sharing your fixes, might see a change. ;)

If you can't wait, build :D
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] seraphism:
Hiya, have you got any good guides I can possibly use to start building from source? I would love to do this.

Thanks
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] onestyle007:
I'm on my phone now,but have some bookmarked on my laptop. When I get home I'll pass some. For starters search XDA and use Google ;) building Android from source, plus go on LineageOS manifest GitHub. Repo sync first,it will take a while. By the way, you'll need a stronger PC or laptop if you want to build fast ;) also Linux or osx or on Windows you'll need Linux in virtual PC. SSD drive recommend.

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Miustone:
Don't get Me wrong. I've put much efforts into this Phone since i still think it's a good piece of Hardware. I'm also Out of Money so i have to stick with it. But it makes Me crazy sometimes as a Ex Samsung, HTC, SONY and Nexus User/Dev to have a LG.

-The Sources

-The Community (XDA)

-The Bootloader (Recovery Access, Bootloader Message)

-The Build Quality (Light Shadows on the Display, the bottom Gap, Volume Rocker Stucks)

And the most Important Thing - UPDATES

We are using a 2016 Flagship and No Android 7.1? Still?

What about Android 0? Do we get a real Update or just a Copy OS from the V20? Like with the actual/past Updates?

I'm really done with LG. That they ditched us with the Modules is another Big Point for Me as G5 User. I would at least be more happy with a V20 since it wasn't a Joke like the G5....
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Ascii3:
For those interested, the following LG G5 variants have the same FCC ID of ZNFVS987:

VS987 - Verizon Wireless variant
US992 - U.S. Cellular variant
RS988 - General North America variant

Presumably, the variants are of the same hardware, but have different firmware.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] onestyle007:
Okay,let's start with the basics. First we are going to make the device tree so at least devs without your phone version would try to build a custom rom ( non stock based) for rs988.

Following parts of this tutorial extract boot.img and share it here.

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=45721523&postcount=1

Then after that, following this tutorial we'll make your device tree.

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Unscedeo:
OK, great! Thank you for starting the development train.

I am new to this kind of stuff, but I am willing to do it. Is have some knowledge of ADB/Fastboot and looking at partitions. So basically what I need to do is extract the boot.img from my phone, and then create a device tree for the phone. Where should I put the tree when it's done?
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] onestyle007:
When all that is done,well then you or any other developer uses that tree with already synced repo from any of the custom ROMs along with the G5 repos to try and make a build.

First thing's first,to get a device tree. Building a rom from the source comes later, and luckily there's more than one tutorial on how to get it done. Then it's figuring out what doesn't work and how to fix it.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Unscedeo:
Source?

So I extracted boot.img, have the file. When I go to the link you gave me for creating a device tree, it says that I need the source code. Sorry if I'm acting like a noob, but where do I get that? I found this link: http://opensource.lge.com/osSch/list?types=NAME&search=lgrs988, but I don't know if I should use it.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] onestyle007:
Can you screenshot what exactly it's asking from you? And by the way, I doubt it's lg open source, probably just google android source. But let me see it first. :)

By the way, another tut on how to make a device tree

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2010281
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Unscedeo:
Never mind, I figured out how to unpack the boot.img. I now have the basic files created, including AndroidBoard.mk, AndroidProducts.mk, etc. I just created the files that are listed in this tutorial (the one you gave me): https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2010281

So I also found this on Github, which states that it is the device tree for the RS988: https://github.com/jcadduono/android_device_lge_rs988. I don't know if that is what you want me to make, and if it is, can we use that? If that isn't the right tree, I am currently on writing the BoardConfig.mk file, which is one of the steps in the tutorial mentioned above. it says to use a "cousin device" tree. What should I use for that?

Thanks

Again.. thanks for the heads up on how to get the ball rolling on this.. I should have some time to unlock my bootloader and post the boot.img and other necessary files this weekend..

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] dahamsta:
XZ Premium owners, how are you finding the battery? My Z2 and now Z5 have never guaranteed me a full day, and now that my Z5 is a bit older I'm charging twice daily. So I'm torn between the Z5P and the OP5, for all it's flaws -- is battery life better than the Z5? I'm particularly interested in dual-SIM, but I assume the battery life won't be all that different to the single-SIM handset.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] jonmorris:
My last Sony phone as a daily driver was my Z3. Battery was fine on that until I did anything that made the CPU go into meltdown.

On the XZ Premium, Sony and Qualcomm have got things nicely under control - which means the phone doesn't run too hot (which in itself plays havoc with the battery, and can make it near impossible to charge) - and the battery doesn't seem to take much of a hit even when playing video or taking photos.

My phone can still get hot when taking photos and give me the warning, but despite me using the phone heavily, the battery (given its size) works commendably. Especially if you enable any of the stamina modes

I could live with most of these modes enabled all the time, with the only issue being when using an on-screen keyboard (it missing characters pressed), and then the battery lasts even longer.

tl;dr - the battery is good and I'm very impressed. You should get a whole day of usage without fear, and with a good deal of screen-on-time.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Katsigaros:
I got this phone yesterday. My previous phone was the Z3 Compact which was the king of the battery life back then, but now i think the XZ Premium is better than the Z3c while i use certain apps and it consumes more battery only when i use the Camera, Photos app, Video app and Youtube. I haven't used Stamina Mode yet.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Tonyevol:
Mine battery life is good, my best was 31 hour running always under 4g with 4+ hours of screen on

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] dahamsta:
Thanks everyone.

@Katsigaros, could you let me know how you're getting on after a week or so? I don't plan to buy until the start of this month, so I'd be interested in progress.

@Tonyevol that's impressive for standby, but is 4 hours SOT good? I had the same response from a few people on Reddit, with 5 hours of SOT, but I though 6+ was kind of the norm these day, with good phones getting 7 or 8.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] gauthamsv:
I am getting 5-6 hours SOT as of now. Over a month, I have seen marked improvement week on week. Once we get root/ twrp, we can disable some processes and programs that aren't required thereby maximizing the battery juice.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Mano1982:
Little better than Galaxy S7 Edge which is my previous before. I am quite happy with battery.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Katsigaros:
After the first time I used it i performed a full recharge from 1 to 100 % to calibrate the battery. I am watching a lot of videos and because of that the battery lasts me 1,5 - 2 days. If I am not watching videos I can get almost 3 days.

I will have a clearer view on battery life after one month but right now I am very satisfied with it.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Tonyevol:
It depends a lot about the way you would use it. For example I'm all days around without wifi connection avaible and of course 4g connection all the time working drains a lot of battery juice. Also having Facebook running all the time with instant messaging always on makes differences. Without using Facebook and limiting display luminosity would grant a much SOT
