Oh my bad, I should have done a little more research before I asked.

I'll make up my own mind but out of curiosity, is this something you've tested?

Thanks again!

Oh I just thought of something, if all your looking for is to improve audio quality. Then check out Viper4Android FX. Viper4Android FX is a Adaptive Digital Signal Processor that is very powerful, and enhances your phone's audio quality tremendously.

It's it my FAQ & Troubleshooting guide.

No it`s cool, I don't mind answering questions. Yeah I did try the high impedance mod before. It does not make the music sound better just a lot louder. I think it distorts the audio in my opinion, that's why I did not enable it on this rom. I don't have high impedance headphones, and I thought they were getting hot on my ears. So I just thought it would be best not to enable

This behavior it's happening for more than 2 weeks on my devices, but since I try to relay as minimum as possible on Play Store apps, I'm ok so far.

The problem with APK Mirror it's they don't have as much apps (and older versions if you wanna try because whatever reason) but yes, thanks for the tip.

I have been busy working on a new project. I love music and wanted to get some more music players on Android that are FOSS. I have been working for a week, on making a script to install 9 terminal based music players for Termux that we can run on Android. Does someone want to test drive the script and let me know if it's working for you?

I like my music collection as well, but since this is the first smartphone that I got that have an DAC, I'm lost on what a good player options are available on the market.

Really good initiative of yours, but let me ask: Why you wanna build an CLI on Android? I'm all in favor of minimalism and use less resources as possible, and I don't mind using CLI or TUI on my Linux desktop.

I'm really curious about your approach.

Well in my opinion the very best music player for the Lgv20 is Poweramp, you can enable Hi-Res mode and it outputs at 24bit, it sounds fantastic. As for using cli music players on Android, I guess it brings me back to the good old days when I was a kid. I ran a bbs on my 286 computer with a dedicated phone line. Back then we didn't have the internet, only good old dial up modems, 28.8 kbps was fast back then, using terminal based music players reminds me of back when I was a kid. Also I am having fun making a script to install all the music players, so other people can enjoy them. So I guess you might say it's more nostalgic than anything. They only output at 16bit, but they are awesome. :)

I have my collection of FLAC's and I don't believe that I have anything above 16bit, because when I ripped/acquired when anything beyond 16bit was somewhat dubious of tangible advantages.

In Linux I like to use mpd+ncmpcpp-ueberzug and I understand the appeal/simplicity.

I never really have the chance to live the bbs era, but I played once or twice.

Probably this Sunday I will test your script, any special instructions or requirements?

That's funny I just got done with v2.0, I setup mopidy+ncmpcpp in Termux. All the instructions are in the zip file, readme.txt. Also I forgot to mention that you can stream Pandora, Deezer, Youtube Music, iheart radio, TuneIn radio and SomaFM and more.

Also once you get Termux setup the way you like, might be a good idea to make a backup. Put it in a safe place it will be on your internal storage directory. Once you restore, exit out of Termux and open it again. This will backup everything including your home directory.

Backup:
tar -zcf /sdcard/termux-backup.tar.gz -C /data/data/com.termux/files ./home ./usr

Restore:
tar -zxf /sdcard/termux-backup.tar.gz -C /data/data/com.termux/files --recursive-unlink --preserve-permissions

Finally got around to testing your debloat script. It's awesome! I waited too long to try it out. The only thing I don't care for is the color calibration.

Would you kindly tell me which file gets modified with the new color profile? Or tell me what to look for in the script? Or is it part of the update binary? Thanks.

Thank you, It's part of a file that loads on start up before Android is loaded. An easy way to change the color on start up would be to use Kernel Adiutor,

Hey everyone, I have been working on the Termux Music Players script. It's at v2.8.6, that should be the final version in less I need to add something or make some changes.

You can download the Termix Music Player script from my XDA Page or the mega link.

Hey Darnrain1, I just updated my VS99520d ROM. I really appreciate your feedback from last time. Could you take a look at my hacky work? Can you give me any hints as to how other developers created the partition scrips? Or working with TWRP in general. Thanks. You are the best!

I tried to DM you but it didn't work for some reason.

Just got done with the Termux Music Players install script v2.8.7. Not much has changed I cleaned up the install script, I removed the menu and exit in the menu, that's about it.

I'm not entirely sure how they do it, but I have a theory. I think what they do is update the phone non rooted. Then use Lgup to dump all the partitions, then put the partitions in the twrp file for flashing. I will take a look at it and get back to you.

The Termux Music Players Install script does not work anymore. I am making a rom that you can just flash in Termux. I am testing it out now. Check back in a day or two, I will put a link to the rom on this page.

    Hey everyone, Just wanted to let everyone know I think I am done working on the Lemon Drop rom my Lgv20 is running great. I have been working on a new project over at GitHub, come and check it out if you want. https://github.com/darnrain/yt-playlist

    Oh I don't know, I think Oreo is one of the best Android operating systems for the Lgv20. People have been saying that Pie is so slow on the Lgv20. After making the Lemon Drop rom and digging in the Oreo os, I have determined that manufactures must be slowing down the older phones. There was so much crap enabled, it's a wonder that the Lgv20 ran at all. I bet most people would just say this phone is slow, and go out and just buy a new phone. But I seen a lot of potential in the Lgv20, that's why I made the Lemon Drop rom, plus I love my Lgv20.

    STANDARD DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for any damages caused to your phone. Use Audo_Debloat and or FAQ & Troubleshooting guide at your own risk there is no warranty or guarantee.


    Lemon_Drop.jpg



    Welcome to the Lemon Drop Rom, for the Lgv20...


    Auto_Debloat is a twrp flashable file I created, it's very unique in that you flash in twrp after you have already flashed Stock Oreo v8.0, kernel, magisk ect. This will transform Stock Oreo 8.0 into The Lemon Drop Rom. Auto_Debloat mods the build.prop file and updates the GPU drivers and tweaks. I love music, Lemon Drop was designed with music in mind, by forcing true 24 bit audio, at 44.1 kHz and System wide Quad DAC support. You will need to install apps like the alarm clock and weather. Most all LG apps are still there and some Google apps, like Chrome and the Play Store. You can always DeGoogle, at any time or keep Google Play Services installed. The idea is to customize Lemon Drop, to fit your needs.


    Please read Questions, before rooting or flashing Auto_Debloat.

    -Radio (VoLTE & Wifi Calling only tested on H910 with AT&T)
    -Wifi (dual channel bonding on 2.4GHz + speed tweaks)
    -Thermal Throttling (70c default max temp) link
    -Video output via hdmi
    -DRM Widevine L1

    ro.hwui.use_gpu_pixel_buffers=true
    ro.hwui.text_gamma_correction=lookup
    ro.hwui.text_gamma=1.4

    video.accelerate.hw=1


    New v9.39 & v8.39
    Updated to speed mod v5.15 trying to save a little bit of battery life without sacrificing speed. Also fixed some apps crashing.

    New v9.38 & v8.38
    Added some Zram tweaks.

    New v9.37 & v8.37
    I got Zram fixed. I was able to have 22 apps open at the same time and Android did not close the apps on me. I was using 1.8 gig's of Zram when doing that. Because Zram was never working before it will take like 1 second sometimes to open an app that's because it's in compressed ram and the phone needs to uncompress it on the fly. So just an fyi. The Zram size is 2304MB with a mem_limit of 768MB. But this will save loading from the eMMC drive because we are loading the apps from Zram once you have opened the app. Oh yeah and swapfile is disabled. Enjoy everyone.

    New v9.36 & v8.36
    Also Changed zram disk size to the optimal size of 2304MB I did the math and this is the best size of zram for this phone. Swapfile is disabled.

    New v9.35 & v8.35
    Removed the swapfile as it may slow the phone down. Increased the size of the Zram.
    Enable 768MB Zram mem_limit and disksize of 3840MB

    New v9.34 & v8.34
    Fixed an issue with the swapfile priority

    New v9.33 & v8.33
    Changed Zram to 768MB Added swapfile 1024MB
    Fixed issue with sluggish ui
    I set the priority of Zram to high and the swapfile to low so the phone will use Zram first then once it's filled up the phone will start using the swapfile. This should give us a lot more ram for multitasking.


    New v9.32 & v8.32
    Added a 1.5Gig Zram with lz4 compression. Removed Swapfile.

    Well I did a lot of research and trial and error, and have concluded that we need to give zram a try. I have came up with a custom zram that's 1.5Gig's. This phone is lacking ram. I wish we had 6 gig's or 8gig's. But we have 4gig's and most of that is used by the OS. So the only way to increase the ram on the phone is with zram. The next version will have my own custom zram config that's 1.5gig's. I got it done already. I guess I always thought that zram would slow my phone down, but I have tweaked this version to make it fast. I have to say I am impressed with the results.

    New v9.31 & v8.31
    Changed swapfile size to 256MB
    Found the optimal swapfile size it's 256MB. That will reduce writes on the eMMC drive and still allow you to open a number of apps at the same time without having android kill them. The tweak from last version helps a lot also by freeing up extra ram.

    New v9.30 & v8.30
    Free up extra ram by reset zram0 and zram1
    Lemon Drop is still using a swapfile

    New v9.29 & v8.29
    Added Speed mod v5.14 change micro sdcard disk scheduler to noop. Might speed up sdcard a little bit.

    New v9.28 & v8.28
    Added the Lemon Drop Boot logo. I think the phone may boot a little bit faster because there is no animation to load.

    New v9.27 & v8.27
    Added Speed mod v5.13 fixed image retention issue.

    New v9.26 & v8.26
    Added Speed mod v5.12 some tweaks a little faster and may improve battery life.

    New v9.25 & v8.25
    Tweaked the 1024MB Swapfile

    New v9.24 & v8.24
    Added Internet Speed Tweak
    I tweaked "/system/vendor/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant_overlay.conf" and the wifi is a lot faster now.

    New v9.23 & v8.23
    Added Camera improvement tweak. This will make the photos you take crisp, clear and sharp.

    New v9.22 & v8.22
    Fixed bug if system is mounted as read-only. If so then Auto_Debloat would not install. Some other small bug fixes.

    New v9.21 & v8.21
    Added speed mod v5.11. This should speed up the phone a little bit more. Should also save battery life. I tweaked the sched_upmigrate and sched_downmigrate. The up is set to 95% and down is set to 90%. So if a task is using more that 95% of cpu it will go the big cpu and vice versa.

    New v9.20 & v8.20
    Increased the swapfile to 1024MB & some fixes. No Zram only a swapfile.

    New v9.19 & v8.19
    Added Speed Mod v5.10 Tweaked Entropy speed tweak a little bit more.

    New v9.18 & v8.18
    Added Speed mod v5.9 Added an entropy speed tweak. Should speed up the phone and help with lag.

    New v9.17 & v8.17
    New Name for the Rom: Lemon_Drop
    Added name to Android Version 8.0.0_Lemon_Drop

    Just if you were wondering it's the Lemon Drop Candies not the drink. They were always my fav as a kid.

    New v9.16 & v8.16
    Added United States GPS Fix
    To: /system/vendor/etc/gps.conf

    New v9.15 & v8.15
    Changed the swap file to 512MB, It's more like 488MB but it should be plenty.

    New v9.14 & v8.14
    Added a 341MB swap file to /cache/swapfile
    This is something I wanted to do for a long time but I did not know where to put it at. The cache directory is the best place for it. Flashing the Speed Mod will remove the swap file. If that happens just flash Auto_Debloat again.

    On v9.14 & v8.14
    You may want to do a format data & reinstall of Oreo And Auto_Debloat. My phone is running faster, sound is great, I am getting close to the final version, this may be it.

    New v9.13 & v8.13
    Added AdAway default blocklist to /system/etc/hosts

    New v9.12 & v8.12
    Added a cool Droid startup animation no sound.

    New v9.10 & v8.10
    Updated speed mod to v5.8, a lot faster now. I think this is the max speed I can get out of the Lgv20.

    New v9.9 & 8.9
    It's even faster than v8.9 & v8.8. I found OTA file that is needed by the phone to do updates. I deleted that. And also I downgraded Magisk from v23.0 to v21.4 in v9.9. I think for now we should just stay on Magisk v21.4 it seems to work the best with Oreo. Only thing is you need to do another full reinstall again, for this new version. I am getting close to being done with Auto_Debloat.

    New v9.8 & v8.8
    Formatted the RCT and FOTA devices. Before I was just wiping them. Now there is no way the phone can download FOTA updates. Not in less Android knows how to read a NTFS file system. I think this new version has improved the speed of the phone a lot. Full reinstall is required for this version. Also found out how to unmount all the partitions after Auto_Debloat is done.


    New v9.7 & v8.7
    Updated to Speed mod v5.7 some other fixes. Enjoy.
    I think this is it for awhile. I just keep finding thing to tweak. I am having fun.


    New Stable versions of Auto_Debloat

    v9.6 & v8.6
    Updated the speed mod to v5.6

    v9.5.1 & v8.5.1
    I spent a lot of time changing the Auto_Debloat install script to get a perfect install of Stock Oreo Debloated. The trick is to un-mount all partitions after Auto_Debloat is done and before you reboot from TWRP into system. It's recommended to do a full reinstall with this version. Lot's of changes to the install script. Also Updated twrp to twrp-3.6.2_9-0-h910.

    v9.2.2 & v8.2.2
    Sable Branch version also. Has no add-on mods installed. It's recommended to do a full reinstall with this version. Lot's of changes to the install script. Un-mount all partitions after Auto_Debloat is done and before you reboot from TWRP into system.


    v9.4 &v 8.4
    Updated the Speed mod from v5.4 to v5.5. Moved Auto_Debloat_log to /system and moved build.prop.stock to /system.
    Also there was an issue with Auto_Debloat v9.3 & v8.3 where it was not backing up the original build.prop file. Also my phone was getting hot with v9.3 & 8.3 IDK why? But this new version phone seems to be running a lot cooler.
    This version there is some other changes I made to improve the install of Stock Oreo. I would recommend doing a full reinstall with this version, if anything to get your stock build.prop file backed up.


    v9.3 & v8.3
    I wanted to Include some of my Add-on Mods in Auto_Debloat.

    What's included is in v9.3
    24_BIT_Deep_Buffers_Enabler_v4.1_Lgv20_Oreo
    DAC_Enabler+LGMusic_v1.3
    Speed_Mod_Lgv20_msm8996_Oreo_v5.4
    Thermal_Engine_Mod_v7.0_70c
    System wide Quad DAC support. V6.2 in build.prop file

    What's included in v8.3
    24_BIT_Deep_Buffers_Enabler_v4.1_Lgv20_Oreo
    Speed_Mod_Lgv20_msm8996_Oreo_v5.4
    Thermal_Engine_Mod_v7.0_70c
    System wide Quad DAC support. V6.2 in build.prop file

    You can always just flash the version of the mod you want. Theses are just what's included.

    You can update if you want, it's always best to do a full reinstall. Update instructions are down below.


    v9.2 & v8.2
    I was having an issue with my sdcard, my files were getting corrupted. I think I fixed the issue with v9.2 and v8.2. You can update if you want, it's always best to do a full reinstall. Update instructions are down below.

    I think it had something to do with Oreo wanting to encrypt the sd card. But it's a issue I have been dealing with for a long time. Let's hope I got it this time. Always backup your sdcard just in case.


    v9.1 & v8.1
    This version is 95% Vanilla Stock Oreo Debloated to the max. Same for v9.2 & 8.2. This version there is a bug that may corrupt your sd card. Best use v9.2 or 8.2 if you want a Vanilla Stock Oreo Debloated.

Patch vbmeta in boot image click next. Direct install recommended let’s go then reboot.

    Installation instructions:
    Before installing Auto_Debloat you need to be on the latest version of twrp. The H915 needs to install the H910 twrp.

    Update twrp. twrp-3.7.0_9-0-h910.img

    With the phone powered off, hold the down volume button and plug in usb to computer and phone.

    type on your computer:

    fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.7.0_9-0-h910.img
    fastbboot reboot
    take battery out
    put back in
    go into twrp by doing a factory reset. How to factory reset the Lgv20


    1. First download the two required files.

    If you are having issues downloading the rom you can try this download manager for Firefox.
    Turbo Download Manager

    H910_20g_Oreo_full_rooted.zip
    Auto_Debloat_H910_20g_only_v9.x_flashable.zip

    2. Then copy both files to the micro sdcard on phone
    3. Reboot into twrp
    4. Click Wipe
    5. Format Data Partition (this will erase your internal storage on the phone)
    6. Click back and reboot into recovery again. aka twrp
    7. Flash H910_20g_Oreo_full_rooted.zip
    8. Flash Auto_Debloat_H910_20g_only_v9.x_flashable.zip
    9. Reboot into system, run setup

    Notes:
    You can use an app like package manager to debloat more apps on your phone.

    Magisk app v26.1, does not work with Oreo. Magisk 24.3 is the latest version that works with Oreo.

    I had issues running the H910 v20H rom, my phone would crash after a day or two. With the v20G rom, my max uptime was 31 days.

    Good idea to reinstall your EFS to get cell signal woking. Under "Is there a guide I can root my Lgv20 with Dirtysanta?" You only need to do this once.

    You can DeGoogle at any time, if you want. Under "I want to DeGoogle after Auto_Debloat, can I do that?"

    For those that don't know Lemon Drop was designed to get the best out of your music. You might want to use a 24bit music player that takes advantage of the Quad DAC, on the Lgv20 phone.
