[Q] Lollipop - Disable Lock Screen Reset? - Verizon LG G2

Hello world of XDA!
I recently obtained a LG G2 from Swappa and updated it the 39a update using the Verizon Update Software on my pc. So far, I have rooted and added a ton of data and such to it. The phone is great and I am enjoying almost everything about it, except for the new feature that was generously added to the lock screen. This atrocious little thing I speak of would be the ' feature' where your phone will delete every little bit of information you have on your phone if the password is incorrectly entered 10 times. Basically, I am asking for a way to disable this feature. I know it has it's perks and all, but I don't really want it. Since it's my phone I personally think I should have the choice to remove it. Can anyone inform me of how to accomplish this?
I am running on a Verizon LG G2 version vs980 39a for anyone that needs to know.
Can't post links, so here: Example of unwanted feature at 8/10 - goo. gl/aEWgAq

Bumb - Anyone know how to help with this?

[Q] My Issues With the New Software

Hey all, I've been away a while simply enjoying (or trying to enjoy) my 'One'. I finally decided after trying almost every single ROM going, converting my phone to GPE then back again and even building my own ROM based on my carrier software that I would actually be happy enough to simply run my Stock, branded H3G software. Mostly due to getting poor signal with anything else..... I had upgraded to 3.62.771.3 and was enjoying most of the upgrades perks however there was something really bugging me from the off...... For whatever reason HTC decided that we no longer wanted or needed the old Video Highlight Themes which came with the older software. They completely removed them and added some new, worse themes! I get the new added functionality of adding your own music but I just can't get past the removal of something that was good!
Basically to cut a long story short I have now re-installed a 4.2.2 Maximus ROM to get the old themes that I loved to use and one of my main reasons for enjoying the phone..... My question is has anyone else been as annoyed by this? Has anyone found a workaround? And does anyone know if the themes are set to return in the impending update to KitKat?? Thanks
Come on, really no-one else is bugged by this???

Apps FC'ing?
Just wanted to say that I love this ROM. Coming from Malladus, which I just couldn't wait to update because I was having some serious lag issues.
Clean flashed, applied the art patch and switched to ART, verified MD5s, etc. I always do.
But I notice that there are several times where I open an app, and it just immediately FC's and reverts to the home screen. No lag or notice, just an immediate close of the app. Super annoying in certain games where I'm playing against someone, or time is a factor. And it appears to happen most in apps that might be graphics heavy.
Is it a GPU thing? An ART/Dalvik thing? Kernal (my best guess would be this)? I didn't flash a separate kernal. Everything else is super tight.
I tried "fixing permissions" in TWRP and wiping Dalvik (just cause).
Thanks!

Thanks Devs, from my LG G2
I've been running 2.2.0 for about 6 days now and suddenly my Knock-on stopped working mid day today. I have never installed a different kernel besides what is bundled in xdabbeb's rom. Knock off still works fine.
I have tried the following to fix:
-full clean flash (wipe, bootstack, rom) md5's verified.
-updating touch firmware through the ##LGSERVICEMENU
-updating touch firmware by pushing "setprop sys.lge.touchfirmware.update 1" w/ ADB
-unchecking and rechecking the Knock-on box in settings
-held my mouth just right and double tapped the screen.
I've searched the rom thread and the touch firmware updates are all I can find. Am I missing anything?
Update:
I started running some of the touch tests in the service menu and determined that I have about a 1/2 inch dead zone near the top of the screen. Odd thing is, it's not always dead, sometimes it will still draw a line. Can someone please confirm for me that this is indeed hardware and not kernel related before I start flashing back to stock!
I've been running XDABBEB's VS980 v2.2.0 flawlessly for a couple of weeks now on Verizon. No complaints. My only issue is that later this week I'm jumping to T-Mobile and I was wondering if this rom would work with a T-mobile SIM. I read online that ParanoidAndroid's VS980 rom is compatible with T-mobile. Anyone care to chime in?

Shouldn't have any issues running with Tmo SIM since it's unlocked and I'm running on ATT.
My 2 cents

You could try a few things:
Uninstall fc app(s). Reinstall. Do not restore data.
Get a logcat of the crash. (syslog or catlog. Both in play store)
Freeze or uninstall any kernel apps. (trickster mod, etc)

1. Do it manually. Download the LGApps zip in the main thread. Extract the LGWeather apk and it's associated files. Move to correct location with root explorer, or something similar, and set permissions. Reboot, and done.
or
2. With the same LGApps zip, delete everything but the LGWeathr apk and it's associated files, and flash that in recovery. Reboot, and done.

Hey all,
Everything is working great except for my hotspot. It starts up and shows like it is running correctly, but neither of my laptops can connect to it. My computers respond with the error 'Can't connect to this network'. I have made sure the 'security key' is correct....
Any ideas?
Thanks!

The Hotspot works fine with the default settings. The only settings I change are network name, password, and power management in advanced settings. If the laptops aren't connecting, then it is on their end. My older Windows laptop and wii u have issues as well. The laptop sees the network as a new network and want to run network setup. The wii u does the same. I'm guessing it has something to do with dhcp... You could try toggling that off in advanced settings. You'll probably have to manually configure the network on the laptops then.

Sorry if this is a dumb question but can I flash 2.1.0 while on 26a bootstack? I have been having an issue on 2.2.0 where people can't hear me on phone calls when I place the call but if they call me everything seems to work fine. So I wanted to see if possibly going back to 2.1 has any effect.

You should be OK. Make a backup and try.

I have the same problem. I was able to narrow it down to after I had connected a bluetooth device then disconnected it. I would not be heard in an outgoing call until I rebooted my phone. You can temporarily get outgoing sound to work by turning speakerphone on/off. It will revert back after you end the call. Outgoing calls would work fine until I connected/disconnected a bluetooth device. Not a fix for your problem,but may help you narrow down the conditions.
I was on 2.2.0 and 26A bootstack
Hey all I know this has probably been asked a few times but I'm getting flustered finding correct answers! I'm on cloudy G3 2.0 and would really love the added features to the camera since the stock app on cloudy's rom is bare bones. Any idea on how exactly to upgrade the settings on G3 rom? The directions on the forum for cloudy users seems unclear! Thanks in advance for any help

Difference between Rapture and Arcadia
Guys, I'm fairly new to this, and new to Note 4.
Was looking for a ROM and came across the Rapture and Arcadia. Is the main difference the base used? T-Mobile /Canadian? Or am I missing a bigger picture?
From the Arcadia thread:
Yea I think so too. This build is based on the Canadians firmware AND it has the ability to self clean every 7 days. Rapture is based on Tmobile build. I guess not much difference. Either ROM is a killer.

Issue/Question RE: waking phone
I am having trouble with "waking" the phone.
When I press the power button it usually takes 2-3 seconds for the phone to turn or "wake." The home button does the same, lags to turn phone on.
This happens at any point of the day: when full battery, halfway through battery, low battery, during charging. Reboots do not seem to help.
I installed ROM clean also, anyone know what to do or what could be causing this?
I can't find montblanc on 's mote
Samsung Back up and restore not available?
using canadian note 4, there is no option to back up or restore from my samsung account, anyone else having this issue?
Thanks!
Thank you for the amazing rom.
since, I am in canada, I am trying out the OC3 Lollipop (stock) for now,
but with all the fc's and general sluggishness I am really missing the arcadia v3!
Just here to say amazing job! and thanks! for dev-ing the canadian firmware!
Appreciated
Thank you sir, I have donated to your account a couple of times. Waiting impatiently.

Status bar mods
Hi, love this rom so far thanks for all your hard work you must enjoy this to put the time in wish I had time to learn. I was running the vision rom by Alexia on Pg 149 there was a post for a download of a systemui. Apk that removed the clock from the status bar by Supergrobi24, I tryed on Arcadia 4 and error message was systemui has stopped, at which point did a wipe and reset and restored my backup. My question have you worked on mod like this for Arcadia.???https://www.dropbox.com/s/mqjq3qmdax...ockFW.zip?dl=0

Bluetooth issue in Samsung Galaxy Note 4 4.4.4. I found the post below I use a Motorola sliver 2, my phone before nexus 5 had no such issue, sometimes sounds like I'm in a tin can and fades out on short distance from phone. My question do you believe it could be the stated issue and does Arcadia address this issue.
finally have information (but not a fix) as to why my Note 4 is having bluetooth connection problems on my 2014 Nissan Altima. The Nissan bluetooth department told me that it's a known Samsung issue that they're working on. Apparently, the Note 4 and Edge all use the newest AVCRP 1.5, which nobody else uses yet. Nissan told me that they were told my Samsung, that in their next update, they're going to revert the phones back to AVCRP 1.3, which is the standard in the industry. I don't know when that will happen, but at least I know why now. I have no idea what AVCRP is, by the way. I'm just relaying the info from bluetooth support.
N910w8 csc problem
Hi, I just did a clean install, arcadia v4.1 (oc4)
I am on telus (TLS) but, when i was done with the clean flash, i realized that it had bell (BMC) as CSC.
of course I went to CSC setting *#272^IMEI# to install TLS but, When automatically booted to TWRP to install the CSC,
It keeps on giving 'FAILED' error on TWRP. Since I do not know much about the inner workings of these stuff,
I just can guess that it's either TWRP acting up or there seems to be some quirk with how roms sets up the CSC codes.
If anybody can chime in and help me out! it's greatly appreciated!

Vs980 With a "23m" BL version??

Hey guys, I have a vs980 currently experiencing some phantom touch issues & my first instinct was the stock LG bloat could be falsely accusing the hardware of malfunctioning, so i went about seeking custom development with great satisfaction seeing this device wasn't locked into big red's trickery.
Upon scanning across the custom business around here I found most of the same stack references i remember from the Gpad v400, but when i checked my software info it told me I had a BL version 23m?
& I would love any input as to why I can't find anything about this bootstack, as i don't want to go further than current Rooted status without understanding more but the phantom touches are beyond irritating >.<.
any help is greatly appreciated, Happy New Yearz!
Can anybody draw a conclusion from this yet by chance? Really curious as to where this stack came from since im only familiar with 11a 11b 22a 22b, etc, & assumed that they stuck to this fashion of labeling...
Or maybe the only other reference i could use is K0T49L, maybe anybody has an idea? -.-
Got TWRP on with AutoRec, still really weirded out by this baseband version though, just a little background on this specific device it came direct from an employee @ Big Red, as in their own personal phone. So just wondering could I be running the original beta for KK from JB?
Either way will do a full backup with twrp here in the morning & possibly post the boot partition.

The rom was changed before I got the phone, Can I still use it properly? (read Desc.)

Ok, so I bought the ROG Phone 2 on AliExpress a few weeks ago on Black Friday because I really needed a new phone. After reviewing the page details I found out that the seller puts the global rom on himself because it comes by default with the Chinese rom. Will this still work for banking apps and OTA updates? Can I make it work somehow? Had I known in advance that it wouldn't be the Real global version I wouldn't have bought it, but since I've waited so long to get it, I'd just assume make it work myself, rather than go through the whole hassle to return it. I don't know much about custom rom's and what is / isn't possible, so I am at a loss as to what to do, or how I can check what kind of phone it is when I get it. Any help would be much appreciated so thanks in advance!
Here is the page where i bought it, because it has some more information on specifics: "aliexpress.com/item/4000106113494.html?spm=a2g0s.12269583.0.0.5fd61d0e5SUkH5"
Also side question, since the seller changed the rom himself should I be possibly concerned with keylogger or anything?
1. I shouldn't worry too much about keyloggers etc. but if you are, just run a good virus scanner when you get the device...
2. With regard to banking apps, they mainly have issues with being rooted... which you won't be.
3. Regarding OTA's, assuming the fingerprint has been changed, you can see this thread for an app that allows updates to be enabled, providing you aren't rooted or anything.
But, if they haven't changed the fingerprint (you can check using device info HW under 'system') then you'll need to follow one of the guides on the forum to change it yourself... here's one... change fingerprint
