If you use MicroG your priorities are probably privacy, and only free/open source software. The primary app store would be F-Droid. If you need access to Google Play Store you can use an app called Yalp. Technically you can use Yalp with your Google account and download your paid apps, but it is a violation of the Google TOS. Also, while MicroG replicates a lot of the Google Services Framework, you may run into issues with those apps. I would certainly try it, while weening off of the Google ecosystem, if you had any interest in reclaiming your privacy

I don't mean to be snippy, but look at the title of the thread and tell me what variant you think it is for.

You have probably seen [MENTION=2881807]x86cpu[/MENTION]'s H830|H850|RS988 thread for LineageOS 15.1. If you only see one of those in a ROM's thread title, then there's a good chance that ROM is only for that one variant.

Happy flashing.

I first mentioned it here: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=77539768&postcount=96 The last build that was fine was 20180720_microG and then after that, at least the next 2 builds, were brutally slow. Think it was due maybe to CPU scaling... Is there any drawback to trying the new build and going back to an old build without reformatting/wiping?

Any idea if Bluetooth calling has been fixed?
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] markd89:
Forgive the Noob questions.. I buy a phone about every 5 years and root it..

I'm looking at an RS988 on Swappa for about USD$120.

I read I need to confirm it's RS98811D, right?

My plan is to use this on Verizon pre-paid.

My usage will be basic - phone, sms, gps, wifi tethering. Any issues?

Previously, I installed Xposed Framework and Xprivacy to limit what apps have access to. Do I still need to do that with Lineage+MicroG?

Thanks!

Mark
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] NextDroid:
I don't think so... I'm pretty sure Bluetooth is only a problem with cellular-based calls. Internet/WiFi-based (WhatsApp, Hangouts, Telegram, etc.) should be all right.

EDIT: Nope, that's not the case. Calling with Bluetooth headsets is still possible with this firmware, and the output is intelligible, but one hears nagging grainy feedback when using it.

Hey, Mark,

You may ask questions anytime! The RS988 you found looks good; I don't think the version number will be a problem. When ARB has stopped me in my tracks, I've installed the RS988 Brightpoint (BPT) update to bypass it and then installed the one desired. Keep in mind that you need to install the regular US-Unlocked software update after installing the Brightpoint version; otherwise, you'll have cellular connectivity issues or similar (because the BPT bootloader and modem versions would still be in place, I believe).

I hope this helps :) Sorry for the late response—end-of-term is approaching for me.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] mauriciognr:
Hi, im looking at some Unlocked G5 RS988 on ebay they are about 70 USD. I currently own a Lg Nexus 4 with Android Pie and works ok, terrible battery life and terrible camera, but it works fine. I do all kind of things with my phone and im not afraid of trying beta stuff and such, but i would like to know what are the major bugs on the RS988 custom roms (at least this one) so i can decide if to get the phone or not, it would be a huge improve over my Nexus 4 hardware wise, but if the software is super broken theres no point. I live in Venezuela so getting flagships/new phone are really out of question, in fract 70 USD is lot of money and really hard to get it here. So i thank you in advance for any insight about bugs and problems i might face with the LG G5 RS988.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] markd89:
Thanks much!

I got everything installed and working on the new phone with Verizon.

A couple of questions:

1. I'd like to add root so I can use Titanium Backup and an Adblocker.

Back on my old phone 2013, I used SuperSU. What I liked about that is that I could set root permissions on/off per app. It looks like the modern options for root are Magisk or Lineage's root. Does either of these let me set a persistent root for certain apps and not for others? What do you recommend?

2. It looks like the xPosed framework is no longer being developed. I used to like using xPrivacy to set granular restrictions per app. I know there are more options available now in stock phone to turn off access to contacts, but I'd like something more granular so I can deny access to other things like the phone's ID, internet access, etc. Is there anything that works well with our LOS + microg?

Thanks!

Mark
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] NextDroid:
Hey, Mark! Thanks for the support :) I appreciate it.

I'm in my senior year right now, and I'm finalizing my twenty-page thesis, so I've been really busy over the past few months. For a second, I thought I had already updated my microG builds to Lineage 16.0! I need to start on that soon.

1. I recommend Magisk, for sure. Magisk's systemless root lets you control root access on a per-app basis. LineageOS's superuser solution can do the same, but Magisk is much more feature-filled, so I prefer to use it. Plus, systemless rooting is a cleaner method of obtaining superuser access, as it doesn't modify the /system partition, and it allows for using Google Pay, etc.

2. I think I've read about someone else asking about XPrivacy recently... Anyway, XPrivacy is no longer in development, but XPrivacyLua has succeeded it and apparently supports Android 6.0 and newer. I haven't used XPrivacyLua myself, but I'd start there.

Also, regarding Xposed — you can install it through Magisk (Systemless Xposed Framework) just to streamline things.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] markd89:
Cool, thanks!

One, probably easy question: If I reboot into TWRP, the computer sees the file system and I can copy files back and forth like normal.

Once I am booted into LOS, the computer sees the phone but doesn't show any files in the file system. I think I am missing a setting somewhere. I checked Developer Options and USB Configuration shows MTP. I'm running Debian, but don't think that should make a difference since it seems to work in TWRP.

Thanks again!

Mark
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] NextDroid:
That is interesting... An improper connection or cabling doesn't seem to be the issue, as things work successfully in TWRP. Linux has native support for just about anything Android-related, including MTP...

I'm not sure what the problem is ?️ Try different cables, different ports, different USB configurations, and see if anything changes. MTP should be working fine in this build. I do remember, however, that there used to be a kernel bug that prevented MTP from working for some reason, and enabling USB Debugging fixed it—try that as well.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] markd89:
Thanks, just for kicks, I plugged the phone into a Win7 machine and basically see the same thing. The phone is recognized, but you don't see any files and can't write to it either.

I tried the ADB Debugging option and that made the phone not appear at all in Linux.

I found this thread https://www.reddit.com/r/LineageOS/comments/5yatcr/mtp_problems_workaround/ and that works. I set the phone to PTP then to MTP and then MTP works properly for that session. It breaks again as soon as the cable is unplugged.

I'm thinking maybe old code may have got in to the upstream to re-break MTP?

If you have more suggestions, please let me know. Otherwise, I'll just use the workaround and then install a new update or 16 when it's ready.

Thanks again!

[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] markd89:
I installed Lyft, but when I run it, it says " "Lyft won't run without Google Play Services which are not supported by your device."

In microG's Self-Check, everything is checked except "Play store (Phonesky) has correct signature" which is unchecked.

"Either the installed Play Store (Phonesky) is not compatible or signature spoofing is not active for it. "

I read that LineageOS with bundled microg should already support signature spoofing. Do I need to do something else to enable it?

Thanks!

Mark
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] NextDroid:
Yes, there are a few steps necessary to enable signature spoofing:

Have you enabled it in Settings > Apps and notifications > App permissions > Other permissions?
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] markd89:
Thanks, I never would have found that setting. without your help.

This is what did it:

Settings > Apps and notifications > App permissions > Spoof package signature > Show System

then turned on Fakestore

I ran into another issue.

Sometimes my phone will not send/receive SMS. When I notice, I can make a phone call and this "fixes" the problem. I then get all of the texts that I missed. It seems like this happens every 2-3 days.

Looking at SIM Status has some clues:

When it's not working:

1. LTE+ instead of LTE edit: It works on LTE+ and LTE

2. Verizon Wireless instead of Verizon

Is there a way to connect to Verizon and not Verizon wireless?

Any other ideas for it to stay in-service?

Thanks!

Mark

Screenshot attached
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] markd89:
I was wrong on this issue. It doesn't matter Verizon/Verizon Wireless it's just Service State not being "In Service". I hacked around this issue by making an Automagic flow which periodically checks the Service State and if it's not In Service, it dials a call and cancels.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] markd89:
I came up with another strange issue: The data connectivity seems to be interrupted when an SMS comes in. I know an incoming/outgoing phone call will interrupt data because the phone does not have VoLTE and it drops to CDMA, but SMS shouldn't do that, right?

Here's an easy way to see the issue.

1. In terminal emulator:

ping yahoo.com

I see appx 150 ms pings.

2. Send an SMS to the phone.

Note that when the SMS is received, the ping goes to 600-1200ms.

Any idea why that would be happening?

Thanks much,

Mark

All these Verizon problems... A while back, I used the Verizon-based network of my carrier and had issues with connectivity as well. [MENTION=2881807]x86cpu[/MENTION], also having experienced these issues, advised me to switch networks, and since I was already planning to do so, I went ahead switched to my carrier's T-Mobile-based GSM network. The connectivity issues I had with the Verizon network did not occur with that of T-Mobile. Even if I were still on the Verizon network, I probably wouldn't be able to help to the fullest extent, as my service setup is a bit un-traditional (wholly internet-based). Sorry!

The issues you are having are known and common, but I'm not aware of any solutions for them...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] fnkhan:
My S8 does not forget the last network it was used on. I tried from forgetting the network, to hard reset and complete phone reset with cache clean. Since it does not forget, it also does not require phone to be restarted when I insert the Verizon sim card in it.

I have a strange issue and the way to fix it involves either my device forgetting the cellular network, or at least requesting me to restart the device when I insert the sim card. It appears Samsung/Google have become too smart (or collecting too much data).

Is there any way that I can achieve the above? Thanks

I flashed the TWRP recovery compatible with treble from the Screwd ROM thread because I was having a problem with the normal TWRP (that is it didn't show the date or hour correctly even if I changed them).

I flashed it using flashify, I went to recovery to see if everything was ok, it was so I rebooted. But after the reboot I noticed that my SD (exFAT) was shown as "corrupted" even though it was working perfectly fine before I flashed the recovery. I tried flashing the normal TWRP again from both, the app and the recovery itself but it didn't solve the problem.

I even clean flashed the ROM I was using but no luck. What it's weird is that both recoveries recognized my SD card. Also, the ROM recognizes other SD card (exFAT) but not the original I was using.

Does anyone know how to fix this? Please help.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] sk8223:
You really shouldn't use apps to flash stuff. Only use TWRP. Recovery apps cause more problems than anything.

Take the card out, format it on your PC, boot into system and set it up again. Hopefully it's not completely dead, but I've heard plenty of stories of Android phones corrupting SD cards randomly. That's probably why no Google phones come with SD card slots--SD cards are unreliable even as portable media storage.

My family and I switched from Sprint to Cricket, we have been jumping through hoops for Sprint to get my Dad's phone unlocked and they supposedly unlocked mine in 2 days, we go to Cricket and they both say Invalid SIM.

Now we called Sprint for the hopefully last time on Friday and they said our phones will be unlocked in 48 to 72 hours. Now hopefully it happens. Our phones meet all criteria to be unlocked. Sprint had even sent us confirmation emails saying that they were unlocked. My Dad has a Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016). If our phones aren't unlocked this time then we will be going through a 3rd party unlocking service. What is the best unlocking service?
