Hi.

I've flashed this Kitkat ROM, this one called "D805_Stock_KK_fix.zip". It seems to be the Vodafone Germany version, but I'm not sure (it got vodafone logo and apps).
A direct flash would render my phone unable to call, as the modem is different, but everything else works (rotation, touchscreen). If I flash the right modem, rotation doesn't work anymore. I don't know if it's related, because I only flashed once with the wrong modem, and the following 5~7 times with the right modem, and only on the first time (with wrong modem), the rotation was working.

It doesn't matter if I fully wipe the phone before the install and hard reset after, or something. Rotation simply doesn't work, and I can't calibrate the sensors as it crashes "Settings" and returns to the main menu.

Here's what I do:
> Enable rotation.
> Phone doesn't rotate.

> Menu > Settings > Switch to list view > Gestures > Motion sensor calibration > Calibrate sensor
> Crashes

logcat of the crash:

I think you can safely ignore the " E/Parcel (336): Reading a NULL string not supported here.". I don't have any idea what is it, but it used to happen on the 4.2.2 Stock too, and didn't affect performance nor battery life.

So here's the same log, filtered:

Simple, don't flash a d805 stock on d802.

Anyways if you do, don't except it to work 100%

To the contrary. Flash a d802 on d805. It used to work flawlessly on 4.2, and it does work everything (but rotation) on 4.4.
It's too soon anyway, I'm using 4.2 Modem on 4.4. Someday it'll be released for the D805 and it'll all work, i hope

I have the same problem. You have found a solution?. He tried another version of modem.img? extracted from a different KDZ.

Id love to understand how a modem can crash sensors. What one thing has to do with another? ! Any dev can explain that?

Kinda new to LG development but I know that rotation had something to do with kernels on Samsung phones. There is an app on play store to fix the rotation the way you want it. We used to use it when we used to flash a rom from another model sometimes.
