Since development is dead.... - Verizon LG G2

Since development for this phone is dead, what is the most current and stable ROM out there other than stock? I've found that on stock I get constant freezes and horrible lag unless I reboot once a day.
I just wanted everyone's opinion on what would be the best ROM to currently run, and does it receive updates? Or is every ROM posted here dead?

I'm on CM 13.0-20160322-NIGHTLY-vs980 and haven't messed with a thing for quite a while. Needs two reboots everytime I power it on after it is fully drained or i power it off. but everything else seems alright.

I tried CM a while ago but the lack of updates and lack of support were a deal breaker. Not to mention I constantly had issues with data handoff after turning off wifi. This time I went with PAC-ROM and so far I couldn't be happier.

Hey there! check out crdroid work for the vs980... http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/development/rom-crdroid-t3120790

I have downloaded cm12.1 snapshat !! (snapshat = stable)
but I need more time to make some testes and checking everything on it
anyway , link's rom :

Seems stable. Everything working so far.
I guess I need to go check it out. I'm still on the latest monthly.
As far as I can tell, it is caught up with the nightlies as far as features go: Camera timer, stylus gestures, whatever else is new. Everything I've tested so far works, wifi tether, bluetooth etc,
Yeah, so far so good. It seems pretty stable and fluid. Haven't checked battery life. I noticed on the last nightly that it took longer to charge the battery.
Battery life here seems very good. Very smooth, not getting lagginess that was in a couple of nightlies.
Had a couple of instabilities with a couple of apps. Reinstalling them seems to have fixed the problem. Time will tell.

I was about to say that I haven't seen any bugs with this latest release, but then I thought for a second and remembered that I had a weird screen issue where my screen was flickering, and then went black until I restarted the phone. It only happened once, so I didn't think much of it. I expect a few bugs with any ROM no matter how stable/baked it is.
Here is a bug report for graphical issues. Now is the time to report any bugs that you see.
https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-1057
Never saw a blue screen until I used this one. Random reboots also, something I never dealt with before.
Now there's an RC2. Trying it now.

So then could you and anyone else who've seen the issue sign up and vote on the bug report here: https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/plugins/servlet/mobile#issue/CYAN-1125
Either that or add your own comment and log if you have. Hopefully the devs will then see and fix the problem.
My random reboots seem to have gone away, but I still have the issue of where BT won't turn on unless I reboot, or reboot twice.

Now i'm getting freezes and reboots 5-6 times a day. Today I could hardly use my phone. And that was even after doing a full wipe this morning and reinstalling the latest nightly and Gapps. I think i'm gonna roll back to a version from a couple of months ago if I can find one and see if that helps.
I did go to that dev page that was suggested earlier in the thread and signed up and voted up this issue. I hope it gets the ball rolling.
I'm kinda disappointed. I know these are nightlies and aren't supported, but i'm really used to Cyanogenmod putting out solid builds, even for their nightlies. A few bugs I can deal with, but this is unusable.
Well the night lies are getting worse. The RC1 and RC2 for me are usually OK for a day or so, but the more time goes by and the more frequent the random freeze and reboot.
Back on M3 and that's OK.
error when installing
when I try to install the zip file I get this error "assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device)...." this is just the beginning the type is small and its hard to read- any suggestions? Some searches I've done say this error shows when the ROM is for the wrong phone, but don't see how that can be. I have the T-Mobile Galaxy Note for sure. Thanks for any help that I can get. Since it seems like T-Mobil is never going to upgrade OTA to Jelly Bean I really would like to get this ROM.
Just making sure. You have installed the TWRP recovery? Can't do it unless you have installed this first.
#2. You do not want this ROM(s), read the thread, nothing but problems. My suggestion if you want a custom ROM, is to download the M3 CyanogenMod. Here is the links. http://get.cm/?device=quincytmo&type=snapshot

I was using Clockwork MOD. I will admit I'm a bit of a Newb with this custom recovery stuff. I went to install Goomanager on my phone, but when I reboot it reboots it into Clockwork MOD. So do I need to uninstall clockwork MOD somehow? I will try the other ROM you mentioned, but I think I had tried that one as well and got the same error. Of course this was using clockwork MOD.
Thanks,
John

It lists several ways to install it. Try them all, one will work.

So M3 is stable enough to use? I couldn't remember whether it was M2 or M3.
Yes M2 and M3 are stable enough for daily use. Actually any nightly from that time is good too. It wasn't until after M3 that things took a dive, and didn't get any better with RC1 and 2.
Only problem I'm aware of is a bug with the Bluetooth on off toggle that affects some. If it happens reboot or force close Bluetooth share.

problems with latest Mackay ROMs

Hallo,
I am sorry, to post it here, but I cannot post in the related forums below 10 posts.
So I had 4.1.5 and it was great. I flashed 4.2.3 now and it was great until after pretty much one day, when it becomes slow, had the same issues with 4.2.2 (becomes slow after a day until reboot or downgrade to 4.1.5) where I downgraded again, but it is not possible anymore without resetting the launcher3 due to some changes.
It will crash repeatedly.
Any help?
Kind regards
neox
I've been using CM based Mackay ROM for a long time now, updating to every new version as they have been released, and have not experienced anything like what you are describing.
Also, you should have really posted in the Mackay ROM thread...

@neox456! I am not sure I understand your problem fully. I have been using the same ROM since it came out for Kit Kat but never had a problem such as yours.
Could it be the no. of apps you have in your phone ? Or maybe because you aren't using low mem option (which was a feature of Kit Kat)?
It'd be good if you could explain your issues a bit briefly.

Did you install CM10.2 (stable) or CM11 before Mackay 4.2.3? This increases your partition giving you better performance and is recommended for KK roms. Try again with 3 wipes plus Format System first, then the CM11, 3 wipes and format again then the Mackay Rom. If you get into trouble, go back to GB 2.3.6 with ODIN like you did when you first rooted your phone and back up from there. Hope it works for you.
The difference was between 4.1.5 and 4.2.2/3. But I played around a little and the main difference was, that KSM was on with the later ones and not with 4.1.5 so I am pretty sure that slowed my device down after a while.
I'll try 4.2.3 without KSM now and see if it won't slow down.
I cannot answer on the official Mackay-Thread until I reached 10 posts!
neither can I yet...
Naaah, it did not really help...
But I guess it is the KitKat slow downs... it is not as horrible as 4.3, but still far from well usable.

Very strange.. I went all the way back to GB 2.3.6 then CM 10.2 (or 11) then SlimKat and it works really well with no FC or lags. (well maybe say max 2 second delay opening Whatsapp but I can live with that. Plus they all seem to have a 1 or 2 second delay when a call comes in for the screen to register.
Well... I am not sure... Maybe it is too many apps. At least they are not constanlty crashing like in JB4.3.
What about waking up the phone for you? Do you have a 2 seconds delay there, too? Well I sometimes have a more like 10-15 seconds delay. I press the power button and nothing happens and after a while you notice the phone is ready, because the LEDs are glowing and funnily you can already unlock it, although the screen does not show anything yet...
Well and sometimes it is only a few seconds...
I have always used CM or Mackay-CM... not sure, whether the other ROM will make such a big difference...
I had lags with CM in ICS so I went to Liquid smooth by aways .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2223729
I like that one, no problems opening apps or answering phone call. Pkus he uses semaphore and the Nova Launcher which has a nice look and feel. Pluis customisable.
Then after to SlimKat, (after increasing partition using the CM11) which works pretty good. I will flash the mackay rom or the omni this weekend to see how it behaves in comparison.
I am down to CM9 (still Mackay) now and happy with it. :angel:
Some features got lost, but I am happy, because in general it is way more useable.

[Q] Droppings calls. Lots. Argh.

Hello!
I'm running Beanstalk 4.4 and the latest Meeow kernel. My phone works well (mostly) and has great battery life. It also drops calls ALL the time. Like all the time between 5s and 2mins.
I also have a problem whereby the screen is kinda screwed for touch. Like a touch is already registered and stuck on rendering the phone useless until a reboot. Probably not related. Can live with that even.
But the call dropping is way bad. I've installed ROM from fresh and tried latest kernels. Don't really notice when it started.
Any one have ideas pls? Thanks!

Very good ROM
Only 1 issue - couldn't turn off NFC, neither in notification bar, nor in settings. It would just pop right back on. Had to disable it in app settings. In battery info it's showing NFC to take up 40% of the power.
If someone is uncertain - this is IMHO good for daily use, no crashes so far.
One thing, when screen is off Battery Monitor Widget shows +875mA current on 2A charger. But when I'm using the phone (mail, web browsing) it shows that battery is discharging "-100mA", even though it's connected to charger. Is that software related, or I need to replace the USB socket/charging circuit in my 4xHD? I have it since yesterday and I instantly flashed CM :/
NFC: Read and you'll find it out. Otherwise trying the most trivial idea regarding any software would work as well.
Charging: No problem there, the system lowers charging current when the device gets hot, i.e. when you use it.

Are you sure about that? That's the first phone that did this to me. LG GT540, and LG G2 were charging pretty fast, even when under 'heavy' usage (playing games, etc), and 4xHD have dissapointed me utterly, when it has screen on and I'm just using dictionary/whatever (Wi-Fi and mobile data off) it's slowly discharging.
Man, I think I'll cry after G2's battery life and features in a while.

@Demetris, well, problems with autofocus and flash still exist, when press button to take picture flash turn on picture getting focused then flash turn off and then 5 sec nothing and then picture is taken. But delay is still here.
Is there any solution except using continuous instead auto focus.

Problem with Wireless
Hi,
I have a problem with my wireless. Especially with the wireless network eduroam which is used by several universitys. It uses 802.1x EAP with PEAP and MSCHAPV2. It seems when I'm changing my location the wireless crashes. I'm not able to turn it off and the whole configuration and mobile internet crashes too. After crashing there is a information that the configuration was terminated. I'm using the version 11-20140916-SNAPSGIT-M10-p880 but I also tried the newest nightly. Sometimes the wirless crashes in my home Wifi. Is this bug already commited and what I'm supposed to do?
Thx.
I have no problems with eduroam, just used it for around half an hour without issues.
I'm using Official CyanogenMod 11 M10, and the phone is pretty much rock stable. The only things I would like changed are:
1) Boot time to be shorter
2) Battery consumption to be more efficient
Can we expect these problems to be solved on the next Stable/Snapshot build?

Thats kernel issue i"ll have a look
1. That ain't a problem
2. I think that here can't be done much anymore, battery is OK. It's hardware issue. I get max out of battery when i charge over night. If i eject charger right after charging reach 100% battery last much less..
With charging over night i get about 15-20 h on and about 2h screen on time

I cant recieve calls?
Hi there, I would appreciate any help whatsoever. The first custom rom I flashed was paranoid android but it was buggy so I thought I'd give cyanogenmod a shot. I flashed a stable 10.1.3 only to find a problem which I guess only I have. I cant recieve calls and when I go into settings>about phone, my IMEI is there but phone number says unknown. Why have a phone if you cant recieve calls? Whatsapp doesn't work either by the way. I like this ROM and I don't want to go back to stock. I'm new to flashing so please make replies detailed Also, does anyone know how to disable the button lights?

Flash CM11, I'm on 20141018 nightly and it's pretty much usable as a "daily" ROM. Just get recovery (AFAIR you need at least 6.0.4.4 to flash KitKat ROM), flash it, copy ROM and google apps to your SD card, wipe cache, data, format system partition, wipe dalvik (I don't even know if all of this is necessary) and you should be good to go. In recovery thread there will be tutorial on how to flash it, and as you flashed a ROM already you should know how to do the rest
help please can't overclock my LG 4x to 1.6 or 1.7 ........ I don't know why do every think ( root / unlock boot loader ) try most rooms and kernels ( wipe cache, data, format system partition, wipe dalvik ) !!!!!!!!
baseband for italy
Hello, I'm using baseband form v20d of the turkey stock. I have no network problems with CM11 (or beanstalk) . Anyone would suggest to update to baseband v20c for germany/italy ?
MAC changed during 20C update?
Hello, anyone else noticed that your WLAN-MAC changed during upgrading to latest firmware? I was updating from 20A_EU-->20C_GER. Phone originally came with Telekom Firmware (German). New Baseband works okay for now, crashed yesterday 1 time, but maybe it was related to me hitting the traffic limit on my contract and getting throttled. I'm using the nightly from the 27th.
data connection loss
Hi!
I've been facing this issue for a long time now and i tried a ton of roms, switching back and forth from the cyanogenmod 11 to omni and others... I find almost impossible using my data connection 'cause every time i switch it on, after about 5 minutes i end up having no connection at all (no service). Sometimes my phone asks me to reenter my pin number and everything seems to work fine for a couple of minutes, then i have no service; sometimes it doesn't even ask me the pin code and i have to reboot my phone in order to make a call... How can i fix it? It has driven me crazy, i searched all over the forum for answers but it seems none has my problem.
EDIT
In addition, since i keep off the backlight of the buttons on the bottom, i noticed that whenever this bug occurs, the backlight goes on and keesps staying on 'till i switch it off again, even if i reenter my pin code

Update issue with CM12.1

Hi !
A strange thing happen every time I update my phone : after the update it get slower during 3 out 4 days.
During this time the battery loss is increased, like very much ! It usually lasts 35-40h, but during those days it's not 8-10h !!!
Also the phone gets warmer. Sometimes I can't hold it in my pocket, it burns to much my leg !!!
During all this time its almost unusable so slow it is.
In the end, for no appearing reason, all this bad mood disappear, and I can use my phone again.
Is all this normal ???
Sent from my Xperia SP using XDA Free mobile app
It is not normal! Try coming back to stock 4.3 to see if that happens there too

No, I will not do this. "Stock" is less efficient than CM.
And, I forgot to tell, this crazy thing happen since I use CM12.1.
I was thinking to format the phone and clean install CM12.1, again. It could help having a clean phone, but would it help correcting those bugs ?
I'll tell here if it worked, but, ltely, I am very busy so I'll do this later.
OK
