[ROM] BarePop - ZV8

[engine95]

Thanks a lot for this Engine. Hopefully theming Zv8 will go easier than extracting/assembling it did. A quick question... I flash the zv8 partition zip right before Barepop, correct?

Thanks
:highfive:

I doubt it, but I could be wrong. Maybe you have found a better way than I to deodex it. Haven't spent much time with that yet.

The modem, kernel, and partitions are included already. It's in the OP. So you get everything with this.

If you go back to KK, you'll probably need to flash the modem and partitions for ZV6.. There in the Stock ZV8 thread.

Since i already installed stock zv8 can i flash this over it?

You should do a clean flash/install. There's a lot of crap removed and remnants from stock will probably still be there.

Typically, no. Not with AOSP and stock based KK ROMs. I don't know off the top of my head if @engine95 had put a data wipe in his install script to make the craziness that is L work properly.

Also, that SuperSU question was directed at you

Cool.
I have everything but /data getting wiped. I should probably have it do that too though.

But everybody should still wipe prior to installing. I just added insurance.

Does this ROM have anything done to it to alleviate the 5.0.1 stock ROM issue of massive memory leaks that cause apps to close quite aggressively in the background? My brother has 5.0 on the Sprint S5 and his issue is actually worse than mine.

I don't think so. I haven't spent any time looking for wakelocks or anything.
But it's been running really good. I did remove the Data optimizer which I think sucks. Among other things.

Not wiping data is convenient for people who are in that exact situation of needing to reflash the ROM, though. Not for the clean first install, but for those occasions where you've accidentally done something stupid (I've done this more times than I can remember), and don't have a backup (that doesn't happen anymore. One time is enough to learn that lesson)

So there's no need to find/install a Gapps .zip, just the ROM itself, correct?

Installed and haven't encountered any issues. Will play around with it and test more stuff later, but its running smooth so far.. Great work!

Does this rom run a custom kernal or is it stock as well

Two clean installs and no bad downloads, i have no system ui(status bar/nav bar) at boot. A reboot doesn't fix either... not sure what's going on

Does smart tips not work?? Widget just says welcome to smart notice.. Not important to me but just something I noticed...so thought I'd mention it.

Anyone know a music mode that works with this rom with stock kernel? Viper4Android don't work with this rom or the stock ZV8 ?

There's a LollyViper apn in the BlissPop thread, I would give that a try. There it's another music mod there, also.

As far as I know, that's one of the items considered bloat and not included in the Rom.

Will toy with this after work. Was running ZV8 perfectly until I flashed Xposed without a backup and kept getting Circle Case force closes and went back to ZV6. Hopefully I can make this my daily though. Can't wait for G3 toolbox to return for the L.

I just unistalled lgsmartcover app with root uninstaller and then flashed xposed and everything seems ok. I still get a couple other app fails weather and somthing else but it seems fine.

Just plain ol' stock.
I messed with it a little to get init.d to work, (which didn't). I'll mess with it more later.

Not sure what to tell you....
Maybe try ##UPDATE# in the dialer. See if that fixes it. That's the safe code to try first.

It works. I haven't removed Concierge (Smart tips) or Weather yet. That's for V2.
Make sure you have it turned on in Settings>Home Screen>Smart Bullitin

In the Stock ZV8 thread, someone got it to work. I think it was in the last few pages.
Edit: Here's the post I saw. Or one of them.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58933296&postcount=278
Holys$## that thread is huge already.

So random... So I tried restoring a zv6 backup and the ui came back but the signal kept coming on then showing the red x ... Remembered the l modem isn't backwards compatible. So I reflashed barepop and somehow it's working. Weird thing is all my apps and data are there when though I wiped. Hopefully everything works.

Happened to me too. I flashed zv6 modem when I restored my backup and all was well. Also, somethings did get left behind when switching. For instance my apps didn't but my restored backup had the default LG wallpaper after coming back from BarePop. Remnants.......

/data/media is not wiped in twrp. You have to either delete it with the file manager or there may still be an option in twrp settings to use mkfs instead of rm when wiping.

Don't know if that's for sure the cause, or if it's in the sdcard/data folder. Hard telling without looking deeper than I can look right now

 

[ruthlessptizzle]

Ok ok so now im using the BarePop....BaRrin is just to good not to use.....i try others but always come back....great job all the devs that put their time into all this goodness for us

Here is a quick reminder on what to do if you cant write to external sd card...

(perhaps this can be included in next version? )

Edit the file at:

system/etc/permissions/platform.xml

to add <group gid="media_rw" /> in the following location like so:

<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >

<group gid="sdcard_r" />
<group gid="sdcard_rw" />
<group gid="media_rw" />
​

</permission>

Save the file or copy it back to the original location overwriting the original and reboot the phone.

This is what I have found so far. It installed fine with no issues.. My battery was terrible today but its not fair to judge based on first day. I froze my apps a little late and I will know more Saturday night. I see a little lag where I did not see it on the previous rom. ([ROM] Stock_ZV8_L_Odexed http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-lg-g3/development/stockzv8lodexed-t3030795)

Something is funky ( people still use this word) with texting. I had to go from handcent to stock and I write a message and sometime its stays and sometimes it just disappears. I write out the whole text again and send and its fine.

I love it.. its like beta testing in the old days.. Please do not take this as an issue.. It feels great to get my hands on something.. keep up the great work.

What I do not see is more of this.

I almost added that. I was wondering if we had the same issue. I haven't had any issues though.
It will be added, and I'll see if I can get a flashable together soon.

Thank you very much!!

It's all good. No worries.
I don't have any lag at all. Maybe wipe cache and dalvic, then let it sit for a few.
I use the stock mms, so I can't really help with the messaging. It could be that they are not compatible with ART/L.
