update issues

Is there a fix for TWRP to make automatic updates work correctly?

Either way, I tried updating manually to the January 23rd nightly. I ran into two issues which may have the same cause.

1) After updating, there were no Play services. Apparently Google Apps (I use opengapps nano for arm64) were not preserved.

2) I restored from backup, updated lineage again and tried to flash opengapps arm64 which TWRP rejected while suggesting I use regular arm. Arm64 gapps used to work (I still had them on the SD card from when I originally flashed lineage). Which gapps are appropriate for the latest nightly and did something change? I don't think architecture can change like that.
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] dmxl:
Yes, there's this mounting issue with TWRP I noticed, and with GApps disappearing. Arm64 GApps is ok though. Just after flashing the rom, turn off phone. Then boot straight back into TWRP, and flash GApps. GApps will then be recognised as compatible. It worked for me. Don't boot fully after ROM flash without flashing GApps, or flashing it later. GApps will somehow then keep crashing.

Hope this helps!

Flashing procedures are a bit handicapped, but the ROM itself seems quite stable.
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] morrga:
I had the same issues!

Just reinstalled my gapps (arm64) that I've downloaded end of last year and still stored on my sd-card

After installing the gapps, I have wiped cache and dalvik. That resulted in very long bootup time.

I had to do the same with my SuperSU, as root was also vanished after the update.

Still some apps were not working after the update. I had to reinstall: gCam, google Drive and some more apps - at least the configuration and settings were preserved.

Overall it took me nearly an hour and 25% of battery capacity to have the phone up and running after the update.

The performance (measured with geekbench4) is still not appropriate for the exquisite HW specs.
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] lulu14150:
Tried anything but can't add my google account after update.

First try: just update lineage zip -> no gapps after boot

Second try: format system, cache and dalvik cache -> flash lineage update, reboot to twrp and flash gapps -> Gapps are here, but ask for my account and then return to homescreen without any error.

Is there a fix ?
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] dmxl:
Look at my post a few posts back. :) If you've updated the ROM, without (right away) flashing Gapps, (crashes) issues will remain. Even when flashing Gapps after full boot.

Full wipe seems then the only option. Then reflash ROM, together with reflashing Gapps straight after, before booting. When receiving incompatibility error upon trying to flash Gapps, shut down phone from within TWRP first, reboot straight into TWRP again, and then flash Gapps. Then boot.

Always make backup in TWRP before flashing new nightly I'd say.

Hope this helps. :)

or in the version of lineage-14.1-20180123-nightly-h870-signed.zip. does the sound work after recording the movie?
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Ivorne:
Does this ROM work also with LG G6+ (128GB internal memory)? Or how hard would it be to modify the build to work with this model?

Thx.
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] morrga:
That's not so much a question of the ROM. To my understanding there is no way to open the bootloader for other devices than the pure LG G6 = H870.
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Ivorne:
Oh, you are right. G6+ is not amongst unlockable devices in official list.

Just, ...why they do this.

PS: i made a clean install 2 days ago (wipe system, data, internal storage)..

any suggestions? thanks

I couldn't find any posts with similar issues. With stock rom I didn't have any reboots so I assume it's not a HW issue.

Has anyone an idea what the problem could be? I really would like to use Lineage...
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] kimitza:
Hey guys, tried this rom to test something new, besides stock rom and fulmics on my H870. Updated TWRP to last version, made all wipes, flashed lineage, flashed gapps,all went ok. But after a few hours i got the message "no sim inserted". First, i thought my simcard got fried, but it worked on my gf's phone. I tried her simcard in my phone, same issue. After a while, the sim was recognised, stayed for a couple of seconds, then went missing again. It's not a hardware problem, because after I restored fulmics, all is ok. Is someone else facing this issue? I really like the new features in 7.1.2, but if i don't have a working phone...
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] parrotlarch:
I'll confirm it. And it's not the headphones, because I've tested it on three different ones. Music is normal, but no one hear me in phone calls, doesn't matter if I'm calling, or someone is calling me. It's the only serious issue I found, and I'd love to find a solution.

Can anyone else confirm this? I was thinking about updating my phone but with this I will of course wait a bit.
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] :
After dirty flashing the last stable ROM I used from January 2, the battery still drains, so this issue might not be the latest ROM's fault [MENTION=3206469]joergherzinger[/MENTION]

Google Play Services breaks after dirty flashes for me so I'd guess the battery drain must be connected.

Any ideas?

Any issues updating from los 14 ?
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Buster99:
Hey Guys,

just got my G6 on Saturday and ofc bootloader unlock, twrp etc..

clean install of the latest LOS and I have the strange behavior that as long as i do not have a sdcard inserted - the rom recognized the internal storage as 32gb(22gb and change) but once (in my case 64gb) card is recognized the internal space is set to 64gb with 37gb used by System. if I set the sdcard as internal storage i have 118gb of storage....

Titanium Backup is on the fritz because of that, also backups in twrp have issues with /system

is anyone else experiencing the same issue?

Hei guys. I'm having an issue. Just got the phone back from service. Having latest 11i version.

1. Unlocked bootloader.

2. Flashed twrp(tried with both 3.1 and 3.2)

3. Reboob into twrp and formated data with yes password.

4. Made all other wives.

5. Mount /system and other partitions.

5. Flashed latest LOS 14.1.(also tried with earlier versions,same problem).

6. ....getting to a halt state, where i get no message. No error, nothing. The phone just hangs.

Any ideas?

I also had it. I made the sd Fat32 card format and it went. I downloaded the file a few times because errors appeared when uploading the file.

I have a different problem.

When the update comes out, I update and enter TWRP and end. I turn on the installation file installs the phone reset and returns to TWRP again.

Are bt calls working without any problem? Because it has been an annoying bug for quite a lot of time. People on the other side barely could hear me and they heard a very loud noise in previous builds and in the unofficial ones I tested some time ago (and I'm sure it is still an unresolved issue in unofficial builds). Can you confirm that now calls made with bluetooth (in car or with a bluetooth speaker) are 100% working? Thanks!

At the end the only way to have a g6 100% work properly is to use the stock rom :(
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] besimk:
Unfortunately yes. I reverted my h870 back to stock rom, sold it and bought a pixel 2 xl. It should be discussed to remove the G6 from supported Lineage devices because the user experience is poor and beginners shouldn't get frustrated with Lineage using this device.
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] ST Dog:
Disagree, completely.

While not you great, having it supported and under development is a good thing.

3rd party ROMs almost always have annoyances and bugs.

Beginners shouldn't be using them.

The G6 seems to be 90%+

Just a few bits not working and those are something everyone uses.
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] besimk:
I might agree with you, but in JIRA there are a number of tickets open to the G6 that have not been touched for months. It is not really clear whether there is any active development at all. Instead, unofficial builds are advertised much more than the official ones.

You can always look to my github if you see something useful. Anyway, I suggest you to look at my CAF kernel, which is the only solution to performance I think.
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] x86cpu:
I would love to... anything you can point at to narrow down the issues that people are having? The Lineage kernel is a combination for the g5/g6/v20 devices, so it takes care to ensure a change does not affect the other devices. I have a v20, the BT calling works great and well. I do not believe there are any issues for the g5. I just helped to fix the g5 slow charging issue (limited to 450ma), so it is possible to do it. Replacing the kernel outright is not fully possible. I don't think anyone wants the alternative either, that if they did get split out, the g5/g6/v20 might get dropped too. I'll take any help and pointers I can get. If you know of specific commits that help and can point me to those, I can try to get some commits in gerrit for anyone to test builds with. If needed even, I can start to build a h870 unofficial Lineage for test changes. I would need to rely on others I do not have a g6 device. I appreciate all the help you've done as I have gotten in some changes too. I'm all for any help, as a lot of times, I just wing it. :D

After flashing the latest nightly, all google apps stopped working. I cleared the cache and data of the playstore app: - still not working

I downloaded and reinstalled the newest gapps (http://opengapps.org/ arm64, 7.1, full version from 22.2.2018): now the google apps, don't crash anymore, they ask (correctly) for adding a google account. After entering the account data the procedure with checking and the acknowledging of the usagerules and dataprotection-declaration just ends with no account added but no error messages. It makes no differecence whether I try to add the account in the settings/accounts or in the play store request.

I reinstalled the ROM and the gapps several times, cleared dalvik and chache, but the effect stays the same - no access to google accounts!!

I also switched gapps from "mini" Januar-Version to the newest "full" version of today.

What else can be wrong?

Is it a problem of the ROM (https://mirrorbits.lineageos.org/full/h870/20180221/lineage-14.1-20180221-nightly-h870-signed.zip) that someone else is experiencing?
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] julian__b:
When upgrading LineageOS manually in TWRP, you have to install the ROM first. Then reboot directly into the recovery. Then flash GApps. Do not boot into the ROM before you flashed the GApps, otherwise you'll run into problems.
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] morrga:
Ok! I just newly installed the full zip of the ROM, rebooted into TWRP; installed the gapps and Magisk and the rebootet into system.

Still the same issue: Adding a google account ends with no error, but without a result.

If I look into my google account with the PC Browser, I can see that there was an account access a few minutes ago with an unnamed Android device. More recent access (up to this morning before the update) are recorded as assigned to LG G6.

The problems seems to be, that there are some kind of remains of my google account in the system: it is not well connected, but unable to add the same account once more. adding a different google account works fine. But the original google account can't be addede anymore.

On the other hand, I added a secondary user the system and loaded my google account into this secondary user on the phone. That worked well. But I want to assign this account back to my original installed user-profile on the phone.

Is there a possibility to remove all the remains of old gapps and associated data and then freshly reinstall the gapps ?

I'm on the latest official nightly and I just tried it. It's there and it's working for me. Are you used full gapps ? If yes then it's replacing the stock camera app with Google camera app which is can't use the wide angle camera. The only thing I can think of.

I used the stock version of GApps. So yes, it is using the Google camera.

Than that's the problem. Use an other gapps. I use mini because it's not replacing the camera app. Or use aroma gapps and exclude the Google camera.
