Just wanted to give a better picture:

-AOSCP 4.x = Nougat, 5.x=Oreo

-Only Official has OTA ability, but is normally behind a little compared to unofficial. If you go unofficial route, you have to flash Gapps and root each time you flash a rom. not too big of a deal as you can just use the smallest Gapps, like pico or micro, and have a fully functional phone.

-The not workings: No wifi hotspot, no FM radio, NFC works but does not with Android Pay(bascially nothing happens), Bluetooth calls are very heavily distorted but bluetooth everything else is fine(still working on this), lastly every once in while on boot SIM not detected will occur and this is fixed either by rebooting(might take a few) or if rooted using the app RIL Control.

-Stock Camera app is good, probably not as good as the original LG one, but there is also a Gcam mod(not the generic google camera) that works wonderfully too. Depending on level of Gapps though you may end up installing google camera over the AOSCP one.
[G4 Android Development] Lurensu:
Yes, I've got the same problem but it looks like we're the only ones.

Anyway I've performed a clean install of the latest unofficial and the wifi is working, but the phone gets too hot (again).

top shows that basically all the cpu is used by "system_server". I'll go back to 7/03
[G4 Android Development] Gone2Plaid:
It was there! I thought if I couldn't flash TWRP, then that structure was gone. Mostly I was just hesitant to go through the Factory Reset steps (thanks LG!). Thanks for the nudge.
[G4 Android Development] tambukey:
System_server and systemui using a lot of cpu has been noticed. I put up what I did to fix it a couple of posts ago. So far it worked for me an a couple others and the problem hasn't reoccurred..
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
it only needs 1 time to let it create all dalvik and cache.

waiting 10 minutes and then do a reboot and its ok.

dalvik cache are not allowed in O. thats where the bug is coming from. i dont know how to fix so just let it do what it needs to do and reboot once.
[G4 Android Development] tambukey:
I had let it sit for about 25minutes after first boot before I attempted anything. But even after 3 reboots it never stopped high CPU. Like i posted a little while back, it wasn't until I killed the PID (along with a bunch of other things that may or may not have helped) that it finally was running normal. A couple of us tried multiple reboots and that never worked. Too many people install, hate it, and roll back instead of learning how to fix it.
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
well.... as soon as it works fine here its nothing i can do.

here only happens once after update.

if they want to go back to another build, its ok for me. its their choice. previous builds also have the same problem, it just happened they updated correctly.

besides dev preview P is released. soon a new fight for update will start....
[G4 Android Development] tambukey:
I don't even want to think about Android P for custom roms. They are destroying the ability to modify the way we want. They are starting to require official signing for everything and getting rid of hidden/undocumented api's. Gonna be a tough world for custom rom developers. Granted by that time I'll probably have upgraded phones and start running official android roms, and will just deal with the lack of options and the un-deniable merge of Android trying to become iOS............:crying:
[G4 Android Development] ThePiGuy:
[MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION] how are you finding the SOT? Both myself, [MENTION=5387684]Minto107[/MENTION] and others are experiencing a sudden battery drain when the screen is on?
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
I don't have stats now to screenshot. I was connected to update locally to test something.

I go through the day easy. Sot is more than 4h easy.

Deep sleep depends on apps. I use telegram, hangout , Viber , WhatsApp, and Facebook so I can only get through 1 day only. At night I've been left usually with 10% which is enough , but I need to charge it to go through the next day.
[G4 Android Development] Minto107:
On battery screen. I'm too lazy to install apk for that. But you can notice a drain by remembering how much battery you have now, and you can set timer for 10 mins and keep using your device and compare. If it used like 10% in those 10 mins then there's certainly something wrong
[G4 Android Development] ThePiGuy:
Weird. With only light apps installed (BBC news etc) I barely made it to 3 hours
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
Mine is exceptional. Don't compare it with mine.

Me I have added 2 capacitors on the board to stabilize the lower voltage of my kernel.

Also I applied expensive and good thermal paste on the sponge that makes contact with the cpu.
[G4 Android Development] ThePiGuy:
Ok thanks. I thought I heard a while back that people were getting 6 hours of SOT. Was I mistaken?
[G4 Android Development] tambukey:
Wow I didn't realize you also did physical mods to yours. I will say I get above average SoT than what I am used to, but I think it got a little worse on the 0312 build. Won't know for a day or two though. 0307 was really good though, and it has been getting better overall as the build progresses.

I haven't heard this other than using higher capacity batteries. I'm still considering getting the Power bear myself. Any one in here use that?
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
Indeed. It's still the same. But the hardware because the phone is old, varies from user to user.

It also varies because of the bad work LG did ...

Also the battery... Me I bought a new. It's cheap now. It's only 10 euro or less. Battery can only live normally for 2 years. After that it's life is reduced. So it's not really 3k mAh. It's a lot less.

Yes I'm originally a PC mechanic. This whole thing is new to me with Android development. I only learnt recently to update my phone.

0312 is same. It only got ambient weather , color manager updates and fixes. That's all.

It's hard to update when the creation or execution of dalvik is not allowed. System server will bug a lot before it's stable again.
[G4 Android Development] Minto107:
Haven't you complained about overheating after last update? Maybe because all cores are locked highest freqs? Why am I the only f*****g guy that actually tests stuff? It's not because of governor, it's something more major. [MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION] could you take a look into this, please?

Sent from Galaxy Tab A10 with 7300 battery ;)))

EDIT: Checked with previous kernel, same issue. It has to be in the ROM itself. I'm getting too old for this sh1t
[G4 Android Development] ThePiGuy:
How are you lot testing the bluetooth calling? Do you literally phone somebody, or is there an easier way? (I can't really phone anybody as I only have one phone, but I would like to test some bits)
[G4 Android Development] tambukey:
Checked with Kernel auditor on 0312 build. My cores are not locked and using conservative governor(big cores) and they adjust properly based on load. Did you attempt a full factory reset? Maybe something saved that hasn't been erased. And the over heating from newest rom is some bug with systemui from creating dalvik cache(based on kessaras). So far I killed the process in terminal and everything has been great since.

Yeah man, just call voicemail.
[G4 Android Development] Minto107:
I got rid of this sh1t. Everything is fine when Wi-Fi is off. Going back to previous build didn't help. Next step is locking bootloader and selling this utter garbage of a phone. I've got enough. iPhone 3G is still doing fine these days, if spotify is working

Sent from Galaxy Tab A10 with 7300 battery ;)))

Yeah that's enough. On Friday I'll get back on stock, lock it and if iPhone is still alive I'm going back for it for next few months
[G4 Android Development] lordc:
Wow man!will be great know more detail about your hw mod
[G4 Android Development] Minto107:
I(kind of?) managed to fix all that crap. SystemUI was responsible for locking frequencies as it was using 150% CPU. Killing it few times worked and also disabling ambient play helped a lot. I'll keep testing and see what's up...

---------- Post added at 07:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:34 PM ----------

Seems like disabling ambient play is the way to go. It fixed the issue, so if any of you have similar problem(100% CPU by systemui) disable ambient play, restart systemui or reboot
[G4 Android Development] Zambiemambie:
Probably not a good idea. It would be unstable if not completely unusable.
[G4 Android Development] stratonz:
Please, how do you disabile ambient play? Thanks.

Inviato dal mio LG-H815 utilizzando Tapatalk
[G4 Android Development] tambukey:
Glad you got that working, I agree seems like ambient play was an issue. Ambient weather seems good, but I'm testing if it affects battery.

It is in settings, under sounds, click advanced on the bottom and then scroll all the way down. Or search settings for ambient.
[G4 Android Development] aha360:
Don't get me started on phone problems man - I tried to flash the latest AOSCP and tried reverting back to older builds and flash the Gapps, but the /system/ partition wouldn't remount or unmount, thus breaking not only my OS install, but also, has wiped my recovery image on numerous occasions up to the point that I wanted to smash my phone against a brick wall
[G4 Android Development] Minto107:
We're not the only ones who have problems with phones. But this sh1t is f*****g with me once a month or so. It's getting annoying af. Maybe it's time for an iPhone. At least you can't do anything with it
[G4 Android Development] pizzaboy192:
I'm running 100% stock and haven't had a single stability issue. Part of the problem seems to be the need for bleeding edge when there's known issues running it.
[G4 Android Development] aha360:
I feel your pain man, I really do, especially when you end up with too much down-time on your hands. Earlier this week, I spent a day trying to get my phone working again, but it kept f0cking around.

Smash

Head

Against

Wall

Not everyone wants stock ROM offerings, especially when they can be too restrictive.
[G4 Android Development] pizzaboy192:
I totally get that, but there is also a limit to what we can expect a phone to do with unsupported software.

Hell, I'm impressed that my HP Touchpad has an Oreo port to it, even if it's not stable. the Touchpad gets more love than my 1st Gen Nexus 7. But at the same time I know that I have a choice between latest Android builds or stability. Usually you can't get both on a device that isn't current gen. It's the same issue with iOS, it's the same issue with Windows Phone. It's the same issue anywhere.
[G4 Android Development] aha360:
There's also a limit to what we can accept too. Sometimes, we don't want to let go of older devices as older flagship devices have more basic features than the newer ones. That said, you are right in terms of how far one can push things in terms of hardware and software, especially with hobbyist developers.
[G4 Android Development] pizzaboy192:
Yup. I bought a G4 only a few months ago because it ticked all my boxes for what I needed (T-Mobile VoLTE compatible, removable battery, SD card slot, QI capable, OIS camera). It's older and I didn't expect to be able to leave the official software due to needing VoLTE, but it does work well for a phone. (And for my first foray into Android as a phone) It just doesn't make sense to see people getting upset at a 3rd party ROM that isn't 100% working and thinking switching to a different phone OS alltogether will magically fix everything, when just upgrading to a newer device should do the trick.
[G4 Android Development] aha360:
Heh - I've received my LG G4 as a replacement handset at the very tail-end of 2017, and it works nicely for a phone alright. As for frustrations though, I honestly think the frustrations are more at not getting things working as intended in general, and not targeted towards any developer or ROM. That's how I am, but as for PCs, that's a different story altogether, especially when GNU/Linux is much lighter than Microsoft Windows

[MENTION=8773512]tambukey[/MENTION]

I've tried to kill the PID several times but unfortunately it never did anything...

Strangely when the wifi was broken everything else was working just great (very cool temperature).

On the 7/3 build I haven't any issue, but I'll try again the latest builds in the weekend
[G4 Android Development] tambukey:
Did you try disabling all the ambient stuff? both weather and play. Also are you rooted?
[G4 Android Development] Lurensu:
Yes and yes, rooted with magisk

Problems with 5.3 on LG G4H815

Posted this on the Google+ page & got told to post it here.

I got 5.3 installed (using TWRP 3.2.1), got all my apps & stuff sorted, it runs smoothly & is very fast, but... a few bugs to report.

Huge battery drain (60% in around an hour or so use of Twitter, Instagram etc. Nothing heavy like video or games)

Phone is very hot

Luna crashing (now installed Nova)

Camera crashes every time

Screen seems quite dull compared to when running LG ROM

Deciding now if I wipe & reinstall again, or just go back to LG ROM.
[G4 Android Development] fahrer17:
[MENTION=8773512]tambukey[/MENTION], thank you for the very detailed answer - this helps a lot!

So just to make this clear: kessaras' AOSCP is NOT the official AOSCP, right? Because on their download page the G4 maintainer is someone called Paul Theodorou (though to my ears this sounds pretty Greek as well ;))
[G4 Android Development] ThePiGuy:
It's the same guy. Kessaras is just his XDA name. His unofficial builds just contain his fixes before the official does (the official is on a slow update cycle)
[G4 Android Development] ziomus684:
[MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION] whay you didn't publiced info on main page about not working things in your rom? For example: bluetooth, hotspot, infrared, fatal optimalization (battery, speed) end encryption which destoy phone? This rom is very big misunderstanding.
[G4 Android Development] burish:
Bluetooth and hotspot is a well know issue. If you search the thread you will see it.

Battery and speed is good, if you read the last 30 pages, everybody who hat problem could repair it with a clean flash.

Encryption destroys the phone? My device is encrypted maybe you did it wrong.

So you blame an dev for something you did wrong? Shame on you :rolleyes:
[G4 Android Development] ntnlzr:
you missed nuclear strike in your blame for[MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION] ,

pls man...... use search button and clean install , than switch on your brain before posting.
[G4 Android Development] tmihai20:
[MENTION=8775244]ziomus684[/MENTION]: that is a pretty harsh statement. Bluetooth and hotspot depend on some missing sources. Usually on any custom ROM infrared is lost (I had it on an older tablet, I lost it with AOSP Rom). Any other features should work. I am waiting for Bluetooth and Bluetooth calling to be fixed and I will jump to it. Reading always help.
[G4 Android Development] Lurensu:
On this rom infrared works!
[G4 Android Development] tambukey:
I'm not sure then. I just kept messing with it on mine. I did everything through adb so it was easier to type. I restarted systemui and system_server a few times with

am restart (com.android.systemui / system_server)

no parenthesis obviously, I rebooted through adb, I went into recovery and erased dalvik cache, I turn off both ambient services and repeated all the other steps. Eventually something took and since then I have rebooted multiple times without any issue. Like kessaras said, it is making the dalvik cache and can take some time. sitting at about 98-117% for cpu isn't that rough during the time it should take. I know it isn't great but give it some time and see if it clears up. But as extra info, I think I was off on my original statement that the newest update was better on battery. So far I think 0307 did better, but I'm still tracking it.
[G4 Android Development] tmihai20:
I have not yet tested this Rom. The other user clearly did something wrong. Clean flash every time you are trying a new Rom. Like I said before, as soon as BT calling is fixed, I will switch to it.
[G4 Android Development] ziomus684:
Maybe encryption in rom working, but decryption in twrp not working.
[G4 Android Development] DosenHatti:
And what has decryption not working in twrp to do with this Rom? Wrong thread

Gesendet von meinem LG-H815 mit Tapatalk
[G4 Android Development] tambukey:
That is right for decryption right now. Steadfaster and Kessaras have been working on it. Also to the first comment, the reason we don't have a not working section is due to this forum is also technically for the Nougat rom. There could be separate sections for each, but with the way this forum is already going, it would just confuse even more people. As for what you say don't work, please be more specific so when people search for it they aren't mislead.

Bluetooth Calling is distorted but technically work, WiFi-Hotspot does not work but bluetooth/USB tethering do work, Infrared works 100%( try other apps, I use IR Remote), Battery and speed are end user issues as myself and others have the latest update running buttery smooth, Encryption works Decryption is under development.
[G4 Android Development] saksoo:
I am using the powerbear battery, seems like a good quality battery and brand, I am with aoscp N and I get easily 6 hours sot (with v29 stock I was getting 3-4 hours but at that moment my battery had not done many charging circles, now is more mature and performs at its best). The only problem it is heavy for me and I am considering to buy again a new lg original and use this as an alternative for extra power when needed.
[G4 Android Development] |_dan_|:
Dear [MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION] ,

have you done something for RIL band problem?

Tnx for your efforts
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
dont fight each other. no need.

its the only rom anyway and im the only one left anyway. whoever doesn't like it, he can buy another phone, lol.

i wish i could split myself with a jutsu , make shadow clones, and fix everything.

i also wish i had access to LG computers to download the files needed to fix the 2 bugs.

And no i have done absolutely nothing for ril bands. i already said that we use motorola stuff otherwise we won't have ril at all.

my time is limited as said. don't ask me every 4 or 5 days the same thing. i only have a few free time during the weekends.
[G4 Android Development] choice2rejoice:
Hey man, I flashed it again and waited een hour or so and then I did a reboot. All working fine now. I guess I missed the info about the change in the first boot time.
[G4 Android Development] tmihai20:
I just do not like superficial statements. When I see someone small being bullied by someone big, I defend the small one. Like this mouse does here.

Problems

Very nice Rom, I've just installed it yesterday on my G4 but I've found out that something is not working with the 5.3 release. First, if I want that my sim card is being read then I must unplug the sd external card and then plug it in after I insert my pin code, that's really annoying..
[G4 Android Development] tambukey:
That's good, so after the initial boot you didn't do anything for an extended time and it fixed itself? Hopefully that's the case, which means nothing is wrong. It is just working and doing its thing in the background. It is kinda bad it takes a long time, but if it works it works.

I don't quite understand what you are saying. Sounds like you have a booted up phone with the back off, The phone is telling you SIM not detected, you removed External micro SD, then put the micro SD back in and the SIM gets detected?
[G4 Android Development] nohup_:
Yes, exactly! If I turn on it without sd card then it read the sim, but if I boot it up with sd and sim inside then it doesn't read my sim card.. That's really weird ahah, I tried with another rom a while ago and it worked pretty fine. I'm sure it is not a hardware problem..
[G4 Android Development] Minto107:
You have to restart RIL daemon. It's not connected with SD card. It's connected with stricked Oreo SELinux policies

Sent from Galaxy Tab A10 with 7300 battery ;)))
[G4 Android Development] tambukey:
That's really weird if that has been consistently working for you, as I have no idea why that works. But like Minto said, if you are rooted just download the app RIL Control and use that to detect SIM. Or issue commands straight to the terminal. OR if not rooted, rebooting works as well. If that SD card trick works better then rebooting for you, then use that if you feel. But remember you should unmount the SD in settings before doing it. Either way you choose works, The bug not finding the SIM card has been known since Oreo was put on our device.
[G4 Android Development] nohup_:
Thank you ! :)
[G4 Android Development] Rhese:
On Oreo, Can anyone test if audio is ahead in YouTube videos or if it's on my side ? If so does anyone know a way to fix it ?

Also, charging is fine but the phone looks like it didn't detect any charger, it don't reset battery stats and does not say charging at all, the led shine yellow tho, anyone experiencing this ?
[G4 Android Development] Lurensu:
I had an issue with youtube audio in the past, a reboot solved it.

To get the phone detecting the charger you have to turn on the phone while a charger is plugged in
[G4 Android Development] ziomus684:
[MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION] can you implement the voice recording in dialer and double tap to sleep in Luna Launcher?
[G4 Android Development] Minto107:
First you complain, now you demand? You're a weird person. Ask Chris for that
[G4 Android Development] :
Sorry, why flash doesn't work on latest unofficial of 03/12?
[G4 Android Development] tambukey:
I do understand if English isn't your first language, but try to always include as much detail as you can. Are you asking about flashing latest rom or that the LED on the back doesn't work?
[G4 Android Development] :
Yes, I mean the led of torch. It doesn't work only on latest unofficial oreo 5.3 by kess I've just flashed.

Sorry for language, is not my first one.
[G4 Android Development] tambukey:
It is not a problem, and LED hasn't worked at all on the Oreo rom. If you are rooted go to the play store and download Flashlight tile fix Kenzo, open the app and click set tile name. In the pull down menu, you can click the edit and add the new tile and remove the old tile.
[G4 Android Development] :
Yeah, thanks for help but still I cannot activate flash led for example with long pression of power botton as shortcut, because is down the stock one torch app.

But it's however a small solution..whatever..
[G4 Android Development] Lurensu:
Guys sorry if I sound silly and annoying, but for anyone running the latest official/unofficial (12/03): how is it going now, after few days? Does the temperature actually stay low?
[G4 Android Development] tambukey:
Like I said, it's a known bug. The tile fix works, not the gesture. It does work with camera so it really didn't lose any functionality.

I can confirm that once I fixed the systemui bug it hasn't ever come back. Everything has been pretty good.
[G4 Android Development] Lurensu:
Thanks, I'll try again this weekend.

(Maybe if I need help I'll send you a PM if you don't mind)
[G4 Android Development] ojcu:
I'm bit afraid to flash it. My big cores are already down and don't want to expose remaining ones to such a load and temperature. I hope it will be fixed in next builds. For now 2802 unofficial runs smooth and I'm happy with it ?
[G4 Android Development] bnbagiz:
hi there,

the home button, recent apps button and the settings button in the notification pull down menu are not working for me. any ideas why ?
