hi guys.

I don't mean to be rude...just a bit confused.....

dew to the OTA issue in the previous update......

is it safe to update this update,at least manually from the TWRP itself?

thank you all helpers and contributors. :)

Had the same problem. Deleted data and cache for this app ; still this problem. After next update of apps problem disappeared and magically works now.

[edit] I once connected the g2 by bluetooth to car before retrying Android Auto again, may be related.. [/edit]
[G2 Original Android Development] dmaster2016:
i read that post and it is most appreciated.

I read the post and will flash manually and no OTA for now ,as i saw blastgator is involved i will wait for a twrp fix from his side.....or any more official statements from his side......

if you will forgive me............"you don't jump ship just because the captain got drunk for one night....."

Lineage os is the best!!!!!!!past........present and future.

many thanks for all the admirable efforts!

yours and and all the contributes.

Still doesn't have ambient display setting on last update lineage-15.1-20181008-nightly-d802-signed.zip

I'm using twrp blastagator 3.2.3
[G2 Original Android Development] MatrixGenesis:
Hi All!

I have downloaded new

1) lineage-15.1-20181008-nightly-d802-signed.zip via download manager.

2) Clicked on install update

3) The phone continues to reboot to TWRP Recovery if I select Reboot -> System

4) I Installed the new build going to Install -> /data/lineageos_updates -> install image

5) After installation i have checked wipe cache and dalvik and then rebooted

6) Phone continues to reboot in TWRP recovery

7) Then I have updated TWRP Recovery from version twrp 3.2.1.0 to 3.2.3.0 (bumb edition)

8) after cache wiping the phone continues to reboot in recovery.

Can anyone help me to understand what to do to reboot normally?

Thank You!

Alex :)
[G2 Original Android Development] mrLoma:
Read some of the previous pages here and look for fixboot.zip
[G2 Original Android Development] MatrixGenesis:
Hi have installed both packages and works all again!

I am curious to understand what is the code / configuration that doesn't permit the system to boot up.
[G2 Original Android Development] blastagator:
Have you booted your version of TWRP from the factory hardware key combo (the factory reset screen that warns of wipe)? I discussed this with someone via email who thinks the BOARD_RECOVERY_BLDRMSG_OFFSET flag may not be respected in newest LOS trees. If this is correct, doing hardware key boot to TWRP will actually cause factory wipe. Can you let me know if hardware key combo causes wipe?
[G2 Original Android Development] aleasto:
Exactly what i found out. I had to disable the wipe command to prevent it. So OTAs work with my twrp build because both lineage15.1 and my twrp have no offset.

The problem is that BOARD_GLOBAL_CFLAGS is not really doing anything. Both on Lineage and on Omni, so I guess it's an aosp oreo thing. I've forwarded my concerns to lineage but not answer so far. I guess we have to go back to a make variable to enable the BOARD_RECOVERY_BLDRMSG_OFFSET flag. Weird nobody found out given how long it is since Oreo is out.
[G2 Original Android Development] blastagator:
In that case, I am not going to rush to build a new version of TWRP until the root cause is fully identified. Sounds like a larger issue than what I can fix! I'll run a new build once there is a solid resolution or can run test builds as needed if someone lets me know.
[G2 Original Android Development] wirbelg2:
Is that Makefile flag device specific or depends on actual bootstack or filesystem?
[G2 Original Android Development] zaibansari20:
Is there any work around to boot it up on F Model??

Has anyone made any kernel for F320
[G2 Original Android Development] ronFenomeno:
no one got the same issue? ??
[G2 Original Android Development] mrLoma:
It's not very likely that it's an operating system issue, or is it only in the stock lineage browser.

You will also need to provide a link since there are many different ways to play movies in a browser.

And which version of os and browser you use.

Personally I mostly use vlc or YouTube app to play videos.
[G2 Original Android Development] aleasto:
So I pushed a proposed fix: https://review.lineageos.org/#/q/topic:bldrmsg-offset

This restores pre-oreo behaviour, and fixes the OTA issue on your latest TWRP build.

You can repopick the topic and give it a try, to build twrp whithin lineage-15.1 environment. You'd need to apply the bootable/recovery commit to omni's twrp (and replicate the bootloader_message/Android.mk change into bootloader_message_twrp/Android.mk too? not sure which folder is used but i'd say _twrp is)
[G2 Original Android Development] ronFenomeno:
https://m.facebook.com/dayowongoffical/?locale2=zh_HK

maybe just take this as an example. the same issue also happen in other web site.
[G2 Original Android Development] mrLoma:
I can play the movies in this list of posts on the stock browser.
[G2 Original Android Development] ronFenomeno:
which webview are you using?
[G2 Original Android Development] mrLoma:
Chrome 69.0.3497.100 it says under development options.

Clean flashed previous 15.1 , dirty flashed lasted (no ota) and I use opengapps.
[G2 Original Android Development] phkhphk:
hello devs and thanks for ambiant display

is there is a way to hide apps like in 14.1 ?

thanks
[G2 Original Android Development] cauch_y:
I can confirm. After clean install without encryption all sensors work. I have seen in AEX thread reply from [MENTION=4742143]YoDevil[/MENTION] that encryption on LG G2 is broken and not easily to get 100% working
[G2 Original Android Development] metteduch:
Anyone tested OTA today? New nightly is up
[G2 Original Android Development] qwertyu123:
Ota still broken (twrp bootloop), so update manually
[G2 Original Android Development] pejicgoran:
I test ota today and it not working.It reboot me in recavery.I have a backup and then i restore it and then flashed manualy and everythings is ok.
[G2 Original Android Development] ronFenomeno:
mine is Android system webview 67.0.3396.87. I have try to install the Android system webview 69.x before, but just the same. would it be a problem of the webview?
[G2 Original Android Development] bernida:
Hey devs, thanks for enabling ambient display!! :)

It works, however the brightness while getting a notification is very very low, so under normal daytime/room conditions it is barely visible unfortunately
[G2 Original Android Development] Loumier:
Can I update just flashing it over an older version or should I always wipe first the older version?
[G2 Original Android Development] BiG_FooT:
If you are coming from same ROM you can dirty flash it (over the older version).
[G2 Original Android Development] runekock:
From older 15.1 official: dirty flash okay (but clean flash if you run into trouble)

From 15.1 unofficial: clean flash recommended (official versus unofficial are considered different roms)

From 14.1 official: dirty flash okay (but myself I always clean flash when changing major Android version, just in case)

Also note that OTA currently has problems. Flash all updates manually.
[G2 Original Android Development] indexketto:
I have no working sensors with clean/fresh install of 15.1. There was data partition format too. What should I do?:eek:
[G2 Original Android Development] cauch_y:
Did you encrypt your phone? Sensors don't work when phone is encrypted.
[G2 Original Android Development] indexketto:
No, never did it before.
[G2 Original Android Development] cauch_y:
If you did complete wipe maybe try with 14.1 or backup to see if sensors work. If yes, try to flash 15.1 again but check if you did download right archive with correct sha256 sum.
[G2 Original Android Development] indexketto:
On 14.1 sensors were working. I upgraded to 15.1 from 14.1 with working sensors. That's why I don't understand why my sensors aren't working at the moment.
[G2 Original Android Development] cauch_y:
Revert to 14.1 to check if everything is ok with hardware. Do you have latest twrp (at least 3.2) If yes, proceed with 15.1 but be sure the archive with system is correct one - for your model and with valid SHA256 checksum. Also don't install any additional packages or apps. If then works, try with Google apps and other apps from play store.
[G2 Original Android Development] JustIceForSake:
I am on 14.1 and considering installing 15.1, so a dirty flash should work right? Just to be clear a dirty flash is when I just take the ROM image and flash it in TWRP with no other steps? I will retain all the data (pictures, downloads and also all the apps settings) right?

Thank you.

EDIT: naturally before installing any new ROM I will proceed with a full TWRP backup :)
[G2 Original Android Development] runekock:
Dirty flash with add-on survival: wipe cache, dalvik, flash new rom.

Dirty flash with add-on reflash: wipe cache, dalvik, system, flash new rom, flash addons

Clean flash: wipe data, cache, system, flash new rom, flash addons.

The most common add-on is gapps. Because gapps are different for different android versions, you mustn't rely on gapps survival in this case; you must wipe system. Also note that not all add-ons have survival support, they must be reflashed every time.
[G2 Original Android Development] JustIceForSake:
Thank you for the reply.

So if I understood correctly since I will upload a new versione of android in Lineage OS 15.1 I should at least proceed with a dirty flash with add-on reflash therefore wipe cache, dalvik, system, flash new rom, and flash addons as gapps. Can you confirm?

EDIT: I followed the following instructions and I was able to update to Lineage 15.1. Now I have to test the phone to see if everything is correct ...
[G2 Original Android Development] JustIceForSake:
Is it just me or the battery charging is slower than when on Lineage OS 14.1?

EDIT: naaah, probably it's charging at the same speed as always...
[G2 Original Android Development] wirbelg2:
Will be the bldrmsg-offset changes already in next build?
[G2 Original Android Development] JustIceForSake:
On a second note the camera seams to be snappier and maybe even takes better pictures. The 60 frames per second videos is not available and the stabilization hangs the phone just like in LOS 14.1. There's nothing that can be done on this issue I guess.
[G2 Original Android Development] wirbelg2:
measured, charge starts here at 1.2 amps but goes down rapidly to 0.74 amp after few seconds. Sounds normal.
[G2 Original Android Development] qwertyu123:
Even with these changes included next build needs to be flashed manually. Don't use OTA or you will end up with a twrp bootloop.
[G2 Original Android Development] emarcin:
Where can I find a compatible version of TWRP?
[G2 Original Android Development] wirbelg2:
Posted several times inside this thread already. Use 3.2.3-0 from blastagator

http://www.gregtwallace.com/lgg2-projects/twrp/
[G2 Original Android Development] JustIceForSake:
I can't create links/shortcuts on the desktop using programs as MiXplorer and EsFile Explorer. I tried with Trebuchet and Holo launcher and the issue is still there, so maybe it's an OS problem?
[G2 Original Android Development] raymccoy007:
As i understand even if i use blastagator's TWRP Version 3.2.3 i have to install the update rom manually. If i Check for updates under the about phone i will informed about new images like	lineage-15.1-20181015-nightly-d802-signed.zip . The zip will be downloaded and the phone is booting into recovery but i have to select the image manually. Can someone tell me there the place ther the lineage-15.1-20181015-nightly-d802-signed.zip will we downloaded (under which directory will i find the image?) Can i search for the file in recovery modus?
[G2 Original Android Development] aleasto:
/data/lineage_updates
[G2 Original Android Development] JustIceForSake:
I just tried also with Nova launcher just in case and the problem is still there: can't create a desktop shortcut, so it must be a LOS 15.1 limitation (or maybe even and Oreo limitation).

Can someone replicate the issue and try to create a shortcut/link of a file in your desktop device? Thank you.
[G2 Original Android Development] nickname9:
I just created a shortcut from MiXplorer with stock los launcher, try wiping cache/dalvik or try doing a clean install
[G2 Original Android Development] JustIceForSake:
Hi, thank you very much for the reply. After what you said I decided to remove Holo Launcher (and then wiping cache/dalvik) and try with the stock LOS launcher (Trebuchet) and I have no problems adding a shortcut, but as soon as I install Holo again I can't create a shortcut.

P.S. Grazie della risposta e buona serata! ;)

EDIT: hmmm, the strange thing is that after I removed Holo launcher and reinstalled it the personalized icons are picked and loaded somehow....it's not a clean install (I removed the app, removed the cache with ccleaner, cleaned cache/davik in recovery and searched "holo" in all the device with Es File Explorer to be sure that there are no leftovers)

EDIT: it must be a Hola launcher bug, so sorry once again for polluting the thread

20181022 works fine..
[G2 Original Android Development] tenderloin83:

[G2 Original Android Development] JustIceForSake:
A quick update, the problem was caused by Holo Launcher. I send an email to the developer that quickly fixed the issue and today the new version of Holo launcher was already available on the Play Store. Cool! :)

---------- Post added at 06:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:53 PM ----------

Hi, I'm not sure what's the problem if you followed all the steps in the post I mentioned.

I used the latest TWRP that you can find on this page 3.2.3-0: http://www.gregtwallace.com/lgg2-projects/twrp/
[G2 Original Android Development] tsitsi58:
I m using 2.8.6.1 twpr version do you think that is the problem do i have to update to 3.2.3. and the problem will be fixed?
[G2 Original Android Development] popxunga:
Yes. It is clearly stated in the requirements in the 1st post of this topic.

Requirements: * Custom recovery (TWRP 3.2.2 or above)
[G2 Original Android Development] JustIceForSake:
Yep:

Hi guys,

I upgraded to 15.1 LOS on my d802 and everything worked fine, but now I have several problems.

- Touch inputs are sometimes handled weird, like a swipe is recognized as single tap or inputs are recognized a littlebit above/below the real touch point.

- The radio signal sometimes gets lost, and since today I always have the "No SIM card" message. All GSM radio options (like automatic provider choice) are deactivated, the only possibility is changing to flight mode and back, which has no effect.

To fix the touch problems I installed the latest LOS update from 22.10. and later also tried a complete wipe and re-install. I removed the SIM and kept the phone off for 10min and started it with re-inserted and cleaned SIM, no success.

Any ideas what I could try or check?

Thanks!
[G2 Original Android Development] popxunga:
First, I would flash stock lollipop kdz to make sure everything is working properly.
[G2 Original Android Development] teamacc:
Install the latest stock kdz and update touch firmware. The option for that is in the secret menu, which you can open by inputting a certain number in the dialer. Info is somewhere on xda.
[G2 Original Android Development] tenderloin83:
anyone can help me please?
[G2 Original Android Development] pejicgoran:
Flash twrp 3.0.2.1 and then v30d in zip format.And then chek a camera.
[G2 Original Android Development] tenderloin83:
what is v30d? where can i download it? thanks
[G2 Original Android Development] exception82:
I tried that (the dial number for secret menu is

3845#*802#

).

The secret menu offers to update the touch firmware, which I did, but the touch input problems still exist, even on stock rom.

For me as a noob, it doesn't feel that the display HW is defect, there are no dead areas, and the problems don't occur on every touch input.

Any further things I could debug or try, before sending the phone into retirement?
[G2 Original Android Development] Farukkk:
I dont know is here right place to ask for it but do we have any compatible google cam app for official build?
[G2 Original Android Development] runekock:
I guess you've already done this, but just for completeness: test touch without power connected. Some power adapters give do much electric noise that it disturbs the touch sensor.
[G2 Original Android Development] wirbelg2:
A tiny list how to install 15.1 on D802 from scratch. I always have to google for each step otherwise.

If everything goes well, about 30min to install. If more recent files are out, use those..

0. backup any data from phone. The following will delete any data.
1. Flash 'D80220D_00.kdz' with 'LG Flash Tool 2014'
1.1 enter download mode (shutdown G2, press Vol+ and connect to usb while Vol+ is pressed)
1.2 start tool and select fw file
1.3 use CSE flash method. dont change anything else.
2. root device using 'LG_Root_Script_by_avicohh'
2.1 connect by usb
2.2 wait for usb drivers been installed
2.3 start LG Root Script.bat and follow instructions in cmd window
3. install TWRP using 'AutoRec'
3.1 download D802_AutoRec.apk, ie. to /sdcard
3.2 download blastagators twrp 'twrp-3.2.3-0-d802-bump-blastagator-signed.zip'
for G2, ie. to /sdcard
3.3 enable install from other sources in Settings -> Security
3.3 install AutoRec apk using filemanager
3.4 start AutoRec (and allow root permissions)
3.5 install old twrp on LG with button 'Flash Recovery'
3.6 reboot into fresh installed TWRP recovery
3.7 select install in twrp and choose the newer TWRP file. Reboot afterwards.
4. Install Lineage OS 15.1
4.1 download the following
4.1.1 lineage-15.1-20181022-nightly-d802-signed.zip
4.1.2 open_gapps-arm-8.1-aroma-20181027.zip
4.1.3 addonsu-15.1-arm-signed.zip
4.1.4 bootstack-d802-CAF-signed.zip
4.2 reboot into twrp recovery again
4.3 wipe dalvik,cache,system,data
4.4 add all four zips from 4.1 in that sequence to zip install queue. 4.1.4 is needed only if 20D was flashed before.
4.5 install && reboot.
[G2 Original Android Development] 4Freedom:
Is there a specific reason to go back to kitkat? :confused:

Rather than Lollipop
[G2 Original Android Development] aleasto:
In fact, it is wrong. Flash Lollipop KDZ and don't flash bootstack
[G2 Original Android Development] wirbelg2:
It works nice. But if there's better way..

Which image for step 1 recommend instead? D80230C ends up always in 'Secure boot error' after twrp-3.2.3.
[G2 Original Android Development] runekock:
Use AutoRec for lollipop instead of AutoRec for KitKat.
[G2 Original Android Development] wirbelg2:
Doesnt look like AutoRec issue. AutoRec worked and TWRP-2.7.x after reboot as well. Only after upgrading to twrp-2.3.2 problem started.
[G2 Original Android Development] qwertyu123:
If you used the old autorec, it replaced the lollipop bootstack with an older version, thats why you need the patched bootstack later.

As they have already told you, flash lollipop kdz again, root with one click root and use lollipop autorec
[G2 Original Android Development] wirbelg2:
Well, i tried to redo from lollipop. It works. But also, there seems to be no advantage at all to start from lollipop.

Both solutions end up with same twrp and lineage.

@'one click root': hmm.., I found only a version which insists to pay 39.95 to run. That was recommended?
[G2 Original Android Development] runekock:
Yes, but with a newer bootstack. The bootstack consists of various secondary partitions, the most important are the bootloader and the radio. Differences in bootloader and radio can affect how well lineage runs after it is flashed. And the radio (baseband) takes care of your connection to your phone company - if LG has fixed some bugs, the connection may be more stable.
[G2 Original Android Development] qwertyu123:
No it was free on xda lg g3 forum if i remember well.

A clarification on OTA's. Today we will have a new build (and a new OTA).

OTA updates will be working from today ONLY IF you already have installed 20181022 build or newer. If that is your case you can update to 20181029 build by OTA.

If you have an OLDER build, you CANNOT use OTA, you need to manually update to 20181022 or newer first.

I noticed only the right speaker has sound, do both speakers work for everyone.

I especially notice it when holding it in my right hand watching YouTube cause the bottom of my hand sometimes blocks the right speaker, basically muting all sound.

Download the new twrp, restart into twrp, install the new one as recovery. It's not very hard once you have a version of twrp installed as far as I remember.
