[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] ezzony:
I think maybe you misunderstand the situation concerning the DAC. There is no need for G7 hi-fi settings brought back on G5 and is better not to have this screen actually since it does nothing.

On the G7 there is only 1 headphone jack. You can use the phone in 2 sound modes, either using the standard dac on the SOC or the second hifi dac chip for better audio but higher battery drain. To change between the 2 you need the settings screen to change from one to the other.

In the G5 there are 2 headphone jacks so to change from one to the other all you have to do is insert the headphone jack from the top of the phone to the jack on the bottom of the phone, so there is absolutely no need for settings options to do this because it is done manually. The g5-hifi dac is currently working perfectly in terms of high quality output, nothing needs to be enabled in software to achieve this. I think this is why you added this option back but as I said it's not necessary because it's already working fine.

As for buying hi-fi dac I wouldn't buy it unless you can get it for no more than 20 euro. They pop up time to time on ebay. The addon DAC is good for high-impedance headphones which normally wouldn't work very well on a smartphone. I have Sennheiser HD650 which is high impedance and works with the DAC well. It can also play high resolution audio files and you can connect it to your computer to play high-rez files as well if your pc soundcard can't play them which many cannot. But in reality unless you play high rez files or use high impdedence headphones there is no much need for it because the standard output on the G5 is actually quite good especially if you install some audio mods like Viper4android or Dolby Atmos.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] speedyburnzales:
Well, it depends. I own a low impedance headphone AKG K812 and the impact of the DAC is immense and the sound easily surpasses the build-in DAC, even with Viper4android engaged.

However, it's always up to your personal perception. I would say if you are keen on best reproduction of high quality music, you don't go wrong with that DAC (maybe for less than 40€ ;))
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Astrako:
Thanks for your advices guys! And thanks for clear explanation [MENTION=4721914]ezzony[/MENTION]. I understand how DAC works but I was trying that you could go to advanced audio settings, to at least, change the DAC balance (like stock G5 option) ;)

Yeah, I have a legendary AKG K240 Monitor with 600 ohms impedance, which are a bit hard to use in normal devices so for this I was curious about buying the Hi-Fi Module. Problem is that I haven't any music in high quality. But I don't understand why today we have improved in image terms (4K HDR devices and so) but with audio we are still using standar CD compression quality (16bits/44Khz) (and the most of the times we listen even more compressed music).

Sorry for OT :good:
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] speedyburnzales:
Thank you for you passion, really appreciated ! But unless you don't have too much spare time and don't know what to do with it, i wouldn't continue investing much in this topic.:highfive:

Well, give it a try. If you don't like it, i'll buy it from you for 20€ ;):)
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] tremalnaik:
I tried with this module: module-hevc-60fps-slomo-gcam-op3t-5t

I still have to compare them on pc (comparing files form Android is a pain), but what I know is that there should be more than replacing h264 with hevc, because I tried in the last days to replace every h264 instance with hevc, and I also added a reference to the video/hevc type beside the video/avc type, with no result at all. All apps, except those that allow you to choose the codec, such as UltraCorder, were still encoding in H264/AVC.

When I did an attempt with the Magisk module, OpenCamere started to use HEVC (with no other choice)

I'll send here the logs:

1) For the H-ROM media files

2) For the G7 media files

3) For the OnePlus media files

Which level of log do you need? Error is enough or do you prefer a lower one?

OT: I wonder why there are so few programs that let you choose the codec, and not just bitrate/fps/resolution.

Many thanks for the UI Tweaks!!!!! This will enhance workflow aswell as look&fell of the ui

Edit: ohhh god it works perfectly! The exact location thingy from google gps is still there as you said but for now thats a small problem and the good outweights the "bad". This ROM will be staying on my Phone until it kicks the bucket
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] ezzony:
Yes sure that would be nice. Would it be possible to take stock g5 dac managmennt and put in G7 port?

Btw you guys have some seriously good headfones so ya the dac module would be worth it for those cans:D

Playing a bit with G7 AoD. Since G5 has some kind of boundaries I am modding G7 AoD to fit this window.... a lot of work to be done, but also adding weather icons on it ;)
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] renzetti.s:
great job
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] tremalnaik:
Here's another mod that can be done: enabling FM radio recording on all regions and models:

That's how I did it:

/system/priv-app/LGFmRadio.apk->classes.dex: IntroActivity.smali>

isRecordFuncSupportRegion()Z //set method to always return 0x1

isNotRecordFuncSupportModel()Z // set method to always return 0x0

This bypasses the controls on region and model, allowing to record radio transmissions without regional limitations.

I made a Magisk module if someone wants to try it on the fly instead of replacing the apk directly, otherwise just extract the LGFmRadio.apk from the zip and place it in its folder.

[MENTION=6917540]Astrako[/MENTION]: I attached also a log for the camera starting with standard H-ROM media_files, and another one for the camera starting (and crashing) with OP5 HEVC media_files.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Astrako:
What do you think guys?

Do you like this style of notifications? with weather and battery like this?

Now I will try to mod the rest of the clock styles because there are many :laugh:
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Astrako:
Ok thanks mate for all your support and contribution. I will add your FmRadio mod to OP and will check too the logs ;)

The FM module, as far as I know, is integrated in the Snapdragon 820, so there should't be difference between European, Asian or American models.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] askermk2000:
In terms of high quality music; it's not about bitrate/sample rate, redbook is enough.

Also cd's are not compressed - wav is a lossless format. Sure there are more sound information to be gathered, but then everything must also follow suit, recording and playback equipment alike. And lets not forget the limitations of our ears as well :)

The importance is recording quality, and the equipment to reproduce the sound (though should be at least cd/redbook).

It's a while since I was much into the audiophile stuff, but that is my understanding as it stands.

I built my own dac and amplifier back then, still have it. Real high end stuff for cheap.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] kimaro:
Have you tried to shot in Raw?

My camera doesn't save dng.

If you activate the option, the raw icon appears for a couple of seconds in camera screen and then disappears. And pics are stored only in jpg format.

Can you check it?

Thanks in advance.

Edit: I will test camera more carefully when I have time but it seems that playing with iso in manual mode doest not work. And using long time shutters lags (almost freeze) the phone too

[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Astrako:
Yes this is already fixed but I'm trying to make working the ARStickers from Google, since G7 camera supports it (but our phone not). If I see is too hard then I will send soon the fix alone :good:
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] grzanek94:
Hey Dev... I found two another little things. Maybe they are connected with kernel mk2000 maybe not. When I plug in Cam Plus module I can't zoom in and out by zooming control and cannot launch video recording in camera app by pressing button on module.

Maybe someone else have the same problem or maybe someone know how to fix it :)

And sorry. One more question.... How can I get kernel with is build-in in this rom?
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Astrako:
I think is not kernel related but camera app. Jog zoom doesn't work and this I thik could be reason for zoom not working in Cam Plus. I have to fix it but is a bit hard. Have a bit of patience while I finish fixing and tuning all things and I will provide a fix ASAP. :good:
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] grzanek94:
Thanks for quick response :)

But is there any method to make icon in status bar little bit smaller? ^^ i have change dpi but icon like clock, signal strenght and battery level are big relative to rest of the UI

Sorry for my english, Im from poland ^^
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Astrako:
Yes it can be done too... But as said wait until I do some other things before :good:

BTW an xda user has sent me the V40 apps and framework files, so you can think what this means ;)

Native G7 apps on the G5?
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] tremalnaik:
One question: does the manual mode in camera work? I was trying to manually set the exposure time, but it kept taking short exposures. I think that it was due to the Zero Shutter Lag mode, that is not explicitly deactivated for manual mode in camera_config.xml: I tried adding this line

<!-- zsl manual supported *************************************************** -->
<item name="zsl_manual_supported">
0
</item>

to the file and now it seems that it works. Did someone experience the same bug (i'm trying to shot in almost no light)? If so, can you try to add this line to the file (it's located in /system/etc/) to see if it's helpful also for you?

EDIT: I'm now totally sure that the problem was the ZSL mode: disabling it in manual mode also enables DNG raw files saving.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Psdragon:
No way...sure?is what im thinking...you will try to port it?

Man you do not exist... It would be awesome.nothing cant stop you.;)
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Astrako:
Here I leave you the camera_config file to fix lag in manual mode and raw saving format.

As said I am trying to make working the google stickers here and also camera has an option to upload videos to youtube that I have to investigate. For now this only fixes those bugs ;)

You have to copy this file to /system/etc/camera_config.xml and replace the existing one :good:

[MENTION=6917540]Astrako[/MENTION]

I was wondering if you could look into something, if you thinks it's necessary.

Naturally I'm disabling RCTD with my kernel flashing script. When I do, there is spam related to "ccmd" in logcat:

10-24 17:26:40.028 1136 2025 E CcmdConnector: Communications error: java.io.IOException: No such file or directory
10-24 17:26:40.030 1136 2025 E CcmdConnector: Error in NativeDaemonConnector: java.io.IOException: No such file or directory

So I thought I'd just disable that service as well, but it makes no difference. I tried to find like a hidden app that's maybe responsible, but no luck.

Maybe this can be weeded out by someone who knows ROM stuff :) But then again, maybe it's not worth bothering with.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] kimaro:
It doesn't work for me... I have rebooted and deleted camera data but no luck.

No dng and same lag when using long shutters...

[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] tremalnaik:
You have to clear app data and cache, because the camera_config.xml file is loaded only on the first startup of the app.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] kimaro:
Yup, I did it but it didn't work

Enviado desde mi ALP-L09 mediante Tapatalk
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] tremalnaik:
That's really strange. So you placed the camera_config.xml file in /system/etc/, overwriting the existing one, you cleared data and cache for camera app and then opened camera and activated manual shot and raw files and still nothing?

Have you checked if the program you used to copy the file actually got the write permission for the system folder? If you open the file you see

<item name="second_camera_max_zoom_level"> 280 </item>
</default>
</Preference>

at the end?

Otherwise try to copy the file in /system/etc using TWRP, to avoid problems with root permissions.

hey guys, i unlocked my tilt 2 days ago. since then, i have only been able to place 1 outgoing call, and then i have to restart the phone. this is starting to get very annoying. there is no ringer, no volume, nothing.

Before you tell me to reflash my radio, i did. like 20 times. nothing

Whoever wrote that unlocking program messed up BIG time.....

Besides, the unlocker worked perfectly for many many many people here, so i would not say that Olipro messed around here.but anyways...

did you reflash the same Radio Version all the time or did you try different ones?? I had Versions with which the same problem occured, no voice, no ringer, no sounds. 1.64.08.21 worked for me
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] P1Tater:
Its really funny how you are the

only

individual that flashing the radio didn't help. And before you go talking about OLI, jocky and the likes that made the program so you could get rid of the bloat and flash works of art that this forum provides, I'd look inward and see if you might have done something wrong.

You know what, Im gonna make it real easy. If you have a 6.1 rom then you need a 6.1 radio. Same goes for 6.0. However some cooked roms are at$t specific and you have to have a at$t radio. A little more information such as the radio you are using and the rom would be really helpful.

Ok, why did you try to change radios? That rom comes with 1.64.08.21. Did you HR at the "Tap here to align" screen prior to setting up all your apps? Have you HR since this happened to see if it fixed it?

Find a Compatible Radio that matches your dam ROM (whatever the f that is) READ READ and READ again..and find it.

Which ROM was installed? Please tell us what it says from Start /Settings / About and Device Information from your phone.

Which SIM unlocker did you use? Jockyw2001 or Olipro?

Are you sure that you've completed the unlocking successfully?

The unlockers have been used successfully time and time again. However, responsibility for it's results lie within your ability to accept failure and to follow through all the steps properly.

Continuing to lay blame on others is quickly making you lose the people trying to help you. :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] P1Tater:
Holy Hell. The rom you pointed to came with a radio, that I know for a fact works. Why did you try to change radios? If it didnt work straight out of the box then you have a bad flash and the radio section is bad.

1. no idea what my original ROM was, now im running "CE OS 5.219202 (build 19202 dutty's) v6.1

2. i used the olipro one

3. it said "phone unlocked" so im guessing it worked.

im not sure if i stated this before, i was running dutty's ROM for 2 weeks, and just recently (sunday) unlocked it.

for all those telling me to read the stickies, there is only one relevant to my situation, and it tells you to try a different radio. i did that. many times.

if i cant fix it, im selling this POS and getting an iphone
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bluemamba:
Not sure?... Try..."I know that I never mentioned it"

The only way that I think this can solved to RE FLASH the ROM all over again. So..back up your stuff, save your back up and reflash the rom. Then restore your back up.

the iphone and the Kaiser have as much in common as a knife and a machine gun. (i prefer the machine gun)
