[Q] New official JB release?

Has anybody taken a look at the new official JB release that popped up at http://sbf.droid-developers.org/cdma_maserati/list.php ? (Although, I can't access it currently)
It's been mentioned on another thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2277830 ) regarding the ability to root, but it doesn't look like it's been looked at in any depth whether it includes any fixes, etc. The build date has changed to the 5th April, and the version is 9.8.20-72_VZW-18-2.
Cheers,
Steve.

This should probably be in q&a section... but yeah I wonder what is in it too... either way, I'm pretty happy sitting on eclipse 1.0.6 right now
Xoom'd using the XDA-Developers Android app

You could be right regarding the location, apologies if people object - I just thought the ROM guys would probably be the ones most likely to be all over it.

File Mirror
FWIW - I found that droid-developers.org seemed a little hit and miss, so I've set up a private file mirror for this new release. If somebody wants access to it, then just PM me. I'm trying to sort out a public mirror too, and will update this post when/if I get that sorted out.
Cheers,
Steve,

I am uploading cdma_maserati/cdma_maserati_9.8.2O-72_VZW-18-2_1ff.xml.zip
to my http://d-h.st/users/sd_shadow/?fld_id=12041#files
via remote url upload, usually doesn't take very long, quite a bit faster than uploading from my pc

This same version upgrade for XT926 HD appeared and was said to be a bugfix for the 4.1.2 OTA and that another more significant update would appear shortly for all devices but still remain 4.1.2 and would include Isis.
So we should expect to see a couple of OTAs pushed out on accelerated schedule that will match this XML file and the subsequent update.

Nice one - I'm currently 66% of the way through uploading to FileDropper (which I've never used before, but it was free, and didn't require sign up).

So is the "more significant update" meant to be coming after this April 5th release?

It's safe for now...

Yes, and I just flashed the boot, system and radio images from the MR2 XML and then rerooted using razr_blade.
So, we are safe to use this file to upgrade the firmware without any loss of root or any other issues.
The secure version did not increment so it is also possible to revert to the prior -18 release without risk of soft bricking.
This follows the pattern of the update for the HD and will likely be the same for the other devices that just recieved 4.1.2 in this cycle.
The next update is the one the will include ISIS and may also have security enhancements that will need to be carefully scrutinized.
That is conjecture on my part, at this stage, we don't know.

It would be nice to know what changes the release addresses. My hope is that it sorts out the hardware keyboard problem of unsticky shift keys in some applications.
Cheers,
Steve

Do we need Eureka Mod or Eureka stock( updates disabled)? What do we need these for?

There are 3 stock firmware updates since last Eureka - stock with updates disabled and Eureka Mod

Thanks to [FLASHER] [v1.3 - 2014-07-07] FlashCast we got reliable recovery and from my point of view it's the only way to make Chromecast unbrickable. From my point of view it's the major advantage of rooting Chromecast.
If Chromecast is unbrickable why not to make Eureka - stock with updates disabled and Eureka Mod people can revert to any stable version if they'll feel that new versions will not suit them.
Questions:
Does anyone use any advanced features of Eureka Mod?
Is Eureka Mod OTA the only feature of the Mod people use?
Is it time consuming to compile stock with updates disabled?
Can anyone but Eureka Team compile Stock with updates disabled or Eureka?
Yes it's possible to unroot Chromecast - Eureka Team can provide you with revert-to-stock firmware.

i don't see the point.
doing all that seems like way more work than just keeping a parity with extras (that you don't have to use). you can stop updating or jump around on versions of eureka already...

What is currently the "best" (state of the art) ROM for EU64bit MSM8916 ??

Presently: T-Mobile-Polska ROM (4.4.2 KitKat, Build ID: KOT49H) flashed 24-03-2015y.
Well customized, rooted, well tuned up with Xpose instaler modules etc., frozen bloatware
For several months it is proposed to update for a reason: Security Fix!
Is it worth updating at all? As such a "security fixes" used to mean user couldn't customize or tune OS, you could hardly detect any other difference!
However, what is the latest or simply the best ROM for the 64bit device?
(And where to download from?)
No matter stock or custom, just it needs fully work and has some nice "state of the art" builtin functionality
The other facilities will be acquired through the means above mentioned: root, Xpose, 3Ctools and some neat tools available on the market.
Possibly half of the stock system apps are just bloatware, so 3Ctools will help to cleanup them

You might try to ask the tech support what is in this update for example the MMS fix surely feels like must have (well known by now mms bug allowing to execute a code send by mms) but if that something you could manage to dodge on your own then just ignore it.
About the ROM with some nice looks n feels well we don't have any TBH we don't have any so called "daily driver" at all but I can suggest installing a custom launcher some of the more liked ones were on sale not so long ago you just have to track the app sales
I don't suggest any cause I don't know the forum rules regard the advertising.
Edit: There's Cyanogenmod 12 but it's bugged, not something u want to use daily.

There's only 1 rom available for the 64 bit and that's the one patrik made the cm12 and it has a good amount of bugs so it's not suggested as a daily driver yet. Nothing else but that and stock.

That is strange. Will reupload.
EDIT: Done see OP

I've always wondered something, since COS charges money for phone flashing and the only way to get it yourself is to compile it yourself and flash. Once you flash your self compiled build, do you have to build the updates or does the built in updater work?

I didn't see the updater, and even if it was there the keys would not match so you would not be able to update.
Ideally, we would put this on a build server and release the full install and OTA every time there was an update so we would get the updates within a few hours of official. A few changes could be made to either change the updater (if it is there, which I did not see it) or use lineageOS one and modify it to point to the release server.

Yeah CopperheadOS uses the stock recovery iirc. They do it like this to use verified boot iirc. I personally loved COS on my Nexus 5 and missed it on my pixel.

how likely are weekly builds for this rom? also did you find a workaround for the F-Droid extension? I tried manually removing it and disabling it via twrp, but it seems to restore itself or simply refuse to delete, showing as deleted from within twrp

Thank you for building this, I tried and failed miserably. Will flash it today :good:

Thanks for building.
Please add your keys to the fdroid whitelist.
Could you write/post about your build system?(Like a Howto)?

The fdroid extension needs the keys as I pointed out in the 2nd or 3rd post notes. Regular builds would require a build server but a build server costs money. So, will try to update when I can.

I have seen and read it before
I setup an build host based on copperheads documentation, I read about the java whitelisting of my keys for fdroid, but the build process itself fails from time to time.
So my question was more about, how did you manage to setup a reliable environment for building. What OS did you use, installed dependencies etc.

Google Dialer v37 & Contacts v3.7.7 on Stock ROMs (any ROM really) August 1st, 2019

Google Dialer v37 & Contacts v3.7.7 on Stock ROMs (any ROM really) August 1st, 2019
I maintained a simple little project on the V20 forum that added Google's Pixel Dialer app and Google Contacts to (any device, really) my V20, and I thought it might be a good idea to post in here about it too, since I am now on a LS998 V30+
Link to the thread in V20's apps section HERE
These zips should work on any android running nougat and above, but I will only support the V30 for sure, since thats what I have.
Installing this will not remove anything you already have on your phone, it will only add google's dialer app and framework as a second phone app.
as always, my latest updates and newest files can be found in this shared Google Drive folder
This link has been changed, the correct one is above. I had (wanted) to move this project to a separate dedicated account that was not so personal. Reshare the folder to yourself using Google Drive and/or update your bookmark.

- I don't think it's necessary, but by request (and to avoid confusion) I have made a Android 9.0+ PIE compatible flashable zip to install just the dialer's framework.
January 22nd, 2019
- Updated apks to latest versions from Google

-I uninstalled any updates to the phone and contacts app I had installed, and flashed the non-magisk version on to my V30+, both apps are working fine.
-I copied those files into the magisk template I've been using and zipped that to create a magisk installable version. I have not tested this one but I assume it will work for those who use it.
- expect arm versions within the next week.

I am still not sure why it was happening, but the Phone app started randomly force closing on me a few days ago. I do a lot of playing around with mods and stuff so it could just be me. I have updated and tested both of the zips being released today, and the app is working again for me. I use a stock Oreo LG ROM. Everyone who hasn't had this issue or if you're on another device or on AOSP, ignore this paragraph. Theres a few files different in here from the previous version, so please flash this update so I know we're all on the same page. ty

I'll fix[/IMG] the rest later
it has just come to my attention that some people (on other devices) are having problems because I never switched over to the 2018 dialer framework in these zips. Both versions have always been there, I just had it named in such a way that the 7.0 version wax being used.
I have changed it over to the newer Oreo 8.0 framework, and will use that from today onwards.
Any issues because of this on LG phones? Please leave a response about it.

Magisk Module I put together HERE
After flashing onto your device, you will have to manually enable all the permissions for each app.
Also you'll need to change the default phone app in your settings.
As far as I can tell, everything in the phone app works (caller ID, spam filter, nearby places)
Unless you use google voice, you will still need to have your carrier's voicemail app installed to use Visual Voicemail.
using either of these methods will allow you to download updates from the play store, so you will not need to wait for me post an update to have the latest versions of both phone and contacts.
I don't expect any problems on your device, as this zip is fairly simple and straightforward. If any bugs do show up, though, I will work with V30 users. I make these zip files for my own personal use. I am sharing them because you might want them too!
Lastly, I often will upload newer versions to a folder on google drive without updating this top post every single time.
You can access that HERE, and share it to yourself or whatever. I'm just trying to make it easiest on myself and anyone interested in following the project.

Ok, and?
I like it in /system, where it won't get accidentally removed.
I assume since you took the time to comment that you think its better installed as a user app for some reason.. I'm curious now, what is/are those reasons?
Putting apps like that on the system partition makes no difference in functionality, and saves space it would otherwise be taking up on /data...
Your stock contacts app comes out of the box on /system, most if not all gapps packages put contacts onto /system.
There are many, many apps that will work on either system or installed as a user app.
I put it there because I like it there. phone and contacts in my installer come together as one package. There's no reason to not keep it simple and put both apps in the same destination.
Thanks for commenting, I guess... but I don't know why you are telling me something I'm well aware of.
Once you have the framework and permission files on the system partition for the phone app, you can sideload that APK too onto /data, if that's what you prefer.
I don't plan on changing anything, and look forward to later in the day when I'll hopefully forget about being confused about why you needed to mention this, especially with zero context.

I used this on my phone - I previously had Contacts from the Play Store and a modified copy of Phone from Martin.077 (I was using version 20). Anyway I wanted to mention with this version, the visual voicemail feature built into the Phone app is working for me with a retail US998+ on Verizon, and this is mostly stock firmware. I say mostly stock because I have the Verizon modem flashed - signal strength at my home doesn't seem as good with the V30 as it was with my Droid Turbo, so I've been experimenting.

If I install and use Magisk module, does disabling the module let me use original dialer?
nvm, installed Magisk module. Working great. Thanks!

Installing any of my zips from this thread will not do anything to your stock dialer app (as far as I know).
You will have to go into the phone settings and switch which one you want set as the default.
To use stuff in the google one, you must set google phone as default.
If you ever need to update your PRL or anything like that, you will have to switch it back to the LG contacts app, or else the dialer "secret codes" wont do anything.
I should have mentioned that in the OP..
Installing this will not remove anything you already have on your phone, it will only add google's dialer app and framework as a second phone app.

Replying to myself to indicate this apparently isn't correct (based on info from another thread). I didn't know when people referred to visual voicemail, they were referring to the text transcription stuff. I have a Google voice number that isn't really used, but I've seen the transcriptions on the website from people who misdialed and left a message - I wasn't particularly impressed and had to listen anyway.
It was mentioned that there is configuration files that will make it work though, so what I said is partly correct - as the voicemail tab shows in the Google dialer when using this version. The modified version I used before didn't have that tab.
EDIT - See below.

Visual Voicemail is not transcription. Visual Voicemail is merely a list of voice messages so you can pick and choose the order you wish to listen or even delete without listening. It MAY also include voicemail-to-text transcription, but that is not the purpose of the visual voicemail definition. Early visual voicemail applications (from when the name came) did not have voicemail-to-text transcription and was called that because you could SEE the list of messages on a video interface.

If they were referring only to voicemail-to-text transcription, they are wrong. That can be INCLUDED in a "Visual Voicemail" service, but is not what visual voicemail means.
Google Voice does have "visual voicemail" (list of messages on the website) as well as having voicemail-to-text transcription (website, text, and email). Both my wife and I have Google Voice numbers and I appreciate both the text and email transcriptions I receive.

I just finished one
there's new framework file being used now. I never had problems with the nougat version, but some on the V20 board have been having issues, so I switched the file in the zip to the newer one.
I suspect these LG phones work fine on stock ROMs (my original intention) with the nougat framework ive been using all along, and that other devices are the ones not working properly without the updated Oreo framework.
I don't really have any way to test on phones I don't own, so I'll have to rely on you guys for help. I've included both Nougat and Oreo frameworks now attached to the top post. All the zips dated October 8th have the newer 8.0 framework

How do I get VM to show up in the Google dialer?
I have my stock T-Mobile VM app installed.
Sent from my LG-H932 using XDA Labs

Contacts installed fine, but not the dialer. I get "App not installed". Anyone know how to fix this?

This may be a silly question, but is there an APK version of this that I can install without TWRP. My v30 isn't rooted and I've done that in the past with my Google phones but I'd be a little nervous to do it with this one in case I bricked it.

This doesnt need root or TWRP. Just download and run the apk.

You don't need root? I've got no where to put the zips (but I don't have root)
The APK for contacts installs but phone does not install on my v30 h933 - the package installer sometimes doesn't even give an error and other times it just says "not installed".

I can't get the apk to install either.

Yeah, can't get it to stick on a stock 932.

You can use this without root, but the bootloader must be unlocked and TWRP installed. Unlocking the bootloader and installing TWRP doesn't require you to install a root app like Magisk.
For those who want to use the Google Dialer (aka Phone) without unlocking the bootloader - I used Martin.077's patched copy previously. With that version though, you'll have to wait for them to update it - it can't use the updates from Google in the Play Store. Google Contacts will install and update from the Google Play Store without any modifications.
