For file transfer, it works fine, but for Bluetooth headset support and in-car audio support, you'll have to ask someone else for that, as I don't have a Bluetooth headset, nor do I have a car.
[G4 Android Development] A_Kirsh:
I can probably flash it and test it myself. However, if there wasn't any work done on that area there's no probably point.
[G4 Android Development] Lurensu:
I don't know how it works with calls in car, but with bluetooth headphones it works great
[G4 Android Development] A_Kirsh:
Thanks! It shouldn't be different.
[G4 Android Development] obvious:
Regarding gps, Google maps knows where I am but it is (I believe) achieving this through cell towers and wifi access point mapping, not gps
[G4 Android Development] aha360:
Well, if your LG G4 is a daily driver phone and you haven't got any fallback procedures put in place that involve having a secondary phone, like using a secondary phone as a temporary daily driver, then you may want to hold off testing it out yourself. However, if you still want to go ahead, then feel free to do so, and report back.

Thanks for the heads up
[G4 Android Development] A_Kirsh:
Will do.
[G4 Android Development] aha360:
Okay then - my advice to you in this situation is to not make a decision that you will regret the most here.
[G4 Android Development] A_Kirsh:
Quick question, are these and the latest TWRP N preview flashable via trwp?
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
Indeed. And I'm not familiar with these. I will need a few days to fix it.
[G4 Android Development] aha360:
The bootloader and modem packages, and the TWRP Recovery Image updates are flashable via TWRP, with the former being a flashable ZIP and the latter being a basic image file that can be flashed by selecting "Install", then "Install Image" before selecting an image, then "flash to Recovery partition".
[G4 Android Development] stratonz:
That's what I said... if you set "only GPS" localization doesn't work! A lot of people has said that gps works, but no one has posted that has used a gps tester app. So I've some doubts they were in "Hi-precision" mode.

Anyway, in 20180101 aoscp version GPS "pure" works perfectly and satellites are correctly fixed.
[G4 Android Development] Monkeypox95:
As far as I'm concerned with the latest build of today :

The Home button seems to have been enlarged and that's great !

the bluetooth in car through Android Auto and calls are still bad.

The GPS, still through AA, works on Maps. I got a problem with Waze under AA might just need to reinstall it and check.

[MENTION=239639]obvious[/MENTION], [MENTION=5089549]stratonz[/MENTION], [MENTION=5659251]aha360[/MENTION], extract sec_config from in there and push it in /system/etc and reboot.

fixed.

i will add it for next build.
[G4 Android Development] aha360:
I can confirm that it is working with Google Maps, with the Location Settings enabled at a "Device Only" level, and I have noticed the absence of such a file with the 20180112 nightly release of this custom firmware.

Thank you for this, and I would thank your post, but I am all out of thanks for today as I have maxed out my limit.
[G4 Android Development] Monkeypox95:
Should I Too ?
[G4 Android Development] aha360:
If your phone is rooted, yes, go for it, as it shouldn't do anything bad to your phone - extract it to /system/etc/ with the file permissions set to 0644 (rw-r--r--) and then perform a full reboot via the power menu.
[G4 Android Development] obvious:
Yep, as [MENTION=5659251]aha360[/MENTION] reports, it's all good now. 23 satellites in view.

Quick fix! Thanks
[G4 Android Development] obvious:
Indoors, lol. Not bad :)

[G4 Android Development] Termehansen:
[MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION] you talk of Oreo 8.1 r1 and r4.... Where can I follow development of these release candidates and also I thought 8.1 was final release in December?
[G4 Android Development] obvious:
Did I mention that camera load time is now a much more respectable 4 seconds ?
[G4 Android Development] #ApolloLiteProblems:
Is anyone else only getting 3 1/2 hours SOT on the 10/1 build? It might just be my battery but I want to make sure. Thanks! I'll go to tomorrow's build when it goes up, unless survival scripts are working (I don't want to have to keep reflashing Gapps, Xposed and Magisk every day)

[MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION] might know a better source. I look here https://android.googlesource.com/device/linaro/bootloader/arm-trusted-firmware/+/oreo-r4-release/
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
r7 is now.

use platform as a guide.

https://android.googlesource.com/platform/cts/+refs

8.1 r7 is latest. you can browse any file in the tree.

here is the commit that changed to r7: https://gerrit.cypheros.co/#/c/CypherOS/platform_manifest/+/2504/1/default.xml

here is the manifest :https://github.com/CypherOS/platfor...fc1866b2bf91c4ecdcc3bd67d1d70c/default.xml#L7

and if it has no conflicts r7 changes are merged in during syncing.

EDIT:

No, oreo is not released yet. otherwise there would also be official gapps.

8.0 was developer preview. too many bugs.

8.1 is stable for everyday use.

rX are updates and fixes.

2:

Remember N ? 7.0 , 7.0.1

7.1, 7.1.1, 7.1.2

in between there were rX too. when its considered that has many fixes and its more reliable , always a new version comes up, e.g. 8.1.1 (maybe) in the future.

[G4 Android Development] Ironic:
With the 5X interactive govenor settings i achive nearly 5h SoT with my battery build in 2015. My battery i bought after that was build in the middle of 2016 and it's really dead. Phone will restart every few seconds after the system is started. Then, for a short seconds, the battery-missing symbol is displayed. Even with a full charge.
[G4 Android Development] Minto107:
I don't like playing with governor settings. Regardless of changes my phone will work way slower and for me it's most important for it to work fast and smooth. My battery is dead because of fast charging, that our battery doesn't seem to like
[G4 Android Development] deltadiesel:
Fast charging is bad for battery.

If you charge your battery slowly the battery lasts longer

When I use wall charger that you place battery in it lasts ALOT longer....the higher the amps....the faster it discharges

High amps = high heat = bad for battery = faster discharge

[G4 Android Development] crazyfrank:
I went through the whole post but can't find the info I need.

I have a h811

I figured out that there is no v29a firmware for my phone, only got released for h815. No official Nougat for h811.

Some posts say that this firmware is not necessary if you have a h811. Other posts say it is necessary.

Now my big question: Does this Android O Version runs on h811 without updated bootloader/modem without any issues? Any problems/disadvantages?

Thank you
[G4 Android Development] aha360:
[MENTION=4993146]crazyfrank[/MENTION]

If you have a H811, then you'll need a v20 modem and bootloader package that is uploaded by [MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION] here: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=188467&sort_by=date&sort_dir=DESC

[G4 Android Development] raptorddd:
i been reading the thread and previous builds had problems seems that new one works or did you flash the update kessaras posted fix for GPS and also people reported sim also working just a few post back
[G4 Android Development] deltadiesel:
That's what I flashed latest build 01/12/2018
[G4 Android Development] raptorddd:
strange. wait till other h811 users reports
[G4 Android Development] tambukey:
So I finally went ahead and got everything loaded on my h811.

Full wipe/clean install of January 12, gapps aroma, and rooted with magisk. Been running for about 6 hours now and everything has been excellent. Seriously great work [MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION], thank you for your time and effort.

Comments/issues so far for me:

-every once in a while it won't read the Sim card after boot. if it doesn't one reboot fixes it each time.

-still has settings search crash (I know you addressed this, can't remember if that was on this build or the last one)

-charging is slow. About 10-15% an hour.

-i will update later with more if I find anything.

-thought: so I realized instantly how much I miss the long press kill on the back button from cyan/lineage. was wondering if it is hard to add this to the navigation menu options.

[MENTION=6017715]deltadiesel[/MENTION] [MENTION=4993146]crazyfrank[/MENTION]

I went to this build from lineage 14.1 and have had no real issues with Sim on the h811, what did you start with before full clean install?
[G4 Android Development] deltadiesel:
20v

My phone is a 810 converted to 811

But modem bootloader etc is 811
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
i don't know. Tell LG before they die , because they die now next LG is the last LG, to send me one 810 with 811 modem so that i can experiment on that
[G4 Android Development] #ApolloLiteProblems:
SIM problems are noted and being worked on

Install Kernel Auditor and go through its settings. You'll find a switch that says USB fast charge. Toggle it.

Setting search crash is being worked on.

Just for the record [MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION], the WiFi hotspot is still not fixed, so when you got time ;)
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
need to fix p2p first for that to work. for the record... there is no phone out there with O and p2p working so... i may need days for that
[G4 Android Development] #ApolloLiteProblems:
Is USB fast charge enabled by default for today's/tomorrow's build?
[G4 Android Development] Monkeypox95:
You can take weeks or months if you prefer. Just put it on your list of to-dos even if it is at the bottom ;)
[G4 Android Development] cartman_73:
On the previuos build usb tethering it was fine.
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
it still is. he wants wifi hotspot.

by enabling p2p to fix hotspot i will break wifi. Currently i don't know how to fix p2p. i will figure it out eventually

#############################################

For tomorrow:

- Enable android O Multicolor notification led settings

- Enable battery led multiple color support

- decrease apps load time

media releated services 1st look for a file in /odm partition

which is not originally there. Create that partition to decrease the file

search time and as a result decrease the load time of the apps.

General for all platforms:

Implementation for Off-Screen Gestures

And because of that, i will experiment locally a couple of days how much battery drains here to add doze gestures.

(yes i can do that, i can add doze wakeup gestures even if we dont have doze)
[G4 Android Development] tambukey:
Thank you. I remembered reading something in it, I just put that post up before I went to sleep. Do you know much for kernal auditor? I'm looking for a way to add a long press back button kill app. It's been a thing for quite a few rooms but I'm still new for mobile platform development.
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
thats not a kernel module, thats a rom feature/mod and i don't think we will add it since we keep AOSCP close to minimal and only most useful mods.

you can only add that , if there is any, with a 3rd party app from PS
[G4 Android Development] tambukey:
Yeah I looked at some on there but I believe they don't kill background processes. Currently I'm going to try an Xposed module through magisk. I do understand keeping it close to stock, it was just something I instantly missed and saw the navigation button options and I thought it would be nice to see in there.

Edit: nevermind I forgot Xposed wasn't ready for api27 yet
[G4 Android Development] #ApolloLiteProblems:
Kernel Auditor is free from the Play Store
[G4 Android Development] tambukey:
Oh I know, I already grabbed it, but currently the fast charger randomly makes it not charge. When it does work I'm getting about 30% an hour which is really nice. I'll keep playing with things. Thanks.

Today Jan 13 used clean flash ROM from Jan 13. The WiFi performance/roaming is very slow. No any Facebook movies plays normally and chrome is slow too. Does more users experience this issue?
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
I don't do mods. Drivers and modem are untouched. If I had done anything wrong rom side then you would just not have wifi at all. I straced wifi earlier today and I saw zero bugs. So... Your internet provider play tricks on you or they had any works in the area.

[MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION]

Some time ago we were talking about "new" G4 (substitute from LG, manufacturing date e. g. July 2017) which have problems with camera.

For sure, as only "new" G4 are affected this has no priority . But I've read you are doing a lot of camera improvements at the moment and maybe it makes sense if you look at this before looking at the next topic? If not please just ignore.
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
you have a different hardware.

01-13 23:35:23.778 E/mm-camera-intf( 5904): mm_stream_streamon: ioctl VIDIOC_STREAMON failed: rc=-1

this happens because your cam can't work with this kernel. wow!

And everything return -1:

You see ? It's written there clearly. Wtf...... a g4 with a different camera hardware !!!

EDIT:

Can't do anything here. If i change the kernel driver ( i don't even know what driver to use LOL ! ) the others won't have a camera.

At least i could try add one more driver if i knew which one !

Can't you somehow return this back to get another ?

They are not all like that. You could ask [MENTION=5545101]steadfasterX[/MENTION] for a guide how to cause on force the motherboard issue.

Make a small thread in Question and help section and tag stead for a guide , lol.

I guess he is the only one that would know of a way to force a bootloop issue
[G4 Android Development] wg2000:
Don't mean to rain on your parade, but stock 6.0 charges at about 60% an hour. Empty to full needs less that 2 hours.
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
Oreo charges slower generally, yeah. Well i don't charge here so slow, not 30 per hour, maybe 50 per hour, but still it's slow.

Don't know why , and i don't want to add more mA in kernel level to allow them to go through, because normally on N we had 0-100 in 45 minutes, which was TOO fast.

EDIT:

To explain more about my fear on this.

On N we used to charge 0-100 in 45min which was too fast.

In the kernel the regulator settings are still the same. If by any chance even 1 LG out there charges that fast with android O now and i from my side up'ed that even more, that LG will get fried in 30 minutes.

So it's better to stay safe. I don't want to get blamed for frying the phones !
[G4 Android Development] tqwzUX6fn39GZMEzSnDF:
I don't see it because I cannot read the log... unfortunately that's a language I don't understand.

But it is what I (and other users with replaced G4) have already assumed.

Of course I would be happy if you find any way. But I can understand if not.

LG must have found any way in the original firmware, but to be honest: first what I have done when I got the G4 back was to install Lineage OS. I've never used camera in stock.

I will keep this version. I've got the replacement after guarantee and think they will not change it again. Moreover I hope new hardware has some advantages (e. g. no bootloop anymore and hopefully it's now possible to use wireless charging - this was also something which got damaged very often).

Anyway, thank you very much for your support and this great rom!
[G4 Android Development] tambukey:
Yeah like Kessaras says charging to quickly is bad. With LineageOS I was getting about 25-30% and thats all I wanted to match, 10-15% an hour is slower than my discharge at times and I needed to be faster then that.
[G4 Android Development] #ApolloLiteProblems:
RR 7.1 I was getting about 70% an hour and didn't overheat. [MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION] really? 0-100 in 45 mins? That's crazy! On the 13/1 build I'm getting about 40% per hour.

---------- Post added at 01:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:05 AM ----------

Also well done - camera now only takes about a second to launch
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
- Install the app Ampere from playstore and let it run for at least one whole minute. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gombosdev.ampere&hl=el

- tag my name [MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION] and tell me your average charging mA with a usb2 connector and usb3 if you may have one.

Example: [MENTION=5461026]kessaras[/MENTION] 230mA

Exaplaining

Usb PC connector (usb2) should charge at half the amount the cable can offer.

Usb2 can let through max 500mA.

Calculating the resistors you should get around half 200 to 250. (safe considering the max that can go through).

Do this test with only the USB PC Cable. That's enough for a test. No need to use the LG quick charger.

1st test with this boot.img won't damage anything even if you use it with the quick charger, but me I only need the usb2 measurement.

{I will edit now post to add the boot.img}

So, extract .zip and flash this kernel and tell me your mA with a usb2. I only increased mA by 0.1 for this initial test.
[G4 Android Development] ziomus684:
Why, our phone is so slow on this ROM? On CrDroid ROM its wery fast and battery it works even longer. On CrDroid its interactive. Can you modified stock governor or interactive?

For me the 12/1 build was really slow. However, it got better with the 13/1 build.
[G4 Android Development] ntnlzr:
pls crdroid is based on 7.1.2 this is 8.x rom how can you compare these rom...
[G4 Android Development] kessaras:
Why is it slow ? And why do you compare a 2 years old outdated rom that doesn't even use the latest tree and blobs and sources ? Does it kill apps faster ? Does it start apps faster ? Tell me exactly what it executes faster there. And why are you still here if crdroid is that good ?! Go back to crdroid then.

Comparing roms in a rom thread is disrespectful. You should at least take 10 minutes to click at some links , read , learn and then make a decision for yourself.........

And that's lame to ask why you should update your bootloader.

You can stay with 20v bootloader we have since 2013 and with a rom that uses device tree and blobs since 2013 also.

I'm not selling a product here to make any post with promotion details with "why" people should update.

Take your time and read and learn why.

ignore this kind of posts. everyone is free to do whatever he likes with his phone.

don't compare roms in a rom thread. do this in a discussion thread

It's not slow. It's just not fast as it was in N and I will up it only a little.

WiFi tethering works , wifi hotspot only doesn't.

Ril works. It may need reboot or restart ril-daemon service. Randomly and rarely sim is not found on boot only.
