[Theme+mod] H818P Genisys UX 5.0 [TOT]

[jskasia]

@jskasia, I can't add any build.prop tweak for some reason! It breaks video recording! I haven't even touched camera! Is there anything special I need to do?

And about the link, I got it from here. The blue buttons are all links to LG Mobile servers.

When you edit the file the security context always changed. Make sure you fix it before you finish.

The permissions are okay (rw- r-- r--), I did check them. Is there some other thing I need to do?

@jskasia thanks for the update, is now an icon in the status bar as in AOSP. Problems have been found yet.

Have you check the security context '$ls -lZ' ?
If it is '?', set it to the right value using '$ chcon xxxx:xxx:xxx build.prop' .

What should I use instead of "xxxx:xxx:xxx" exactly? It keeps saying invalid context when I type "ubject_r:system_file:s0".

That's weird, did you mean this ?

$chcon u:object_r:system_file:s0 build.prop

If it did not work there maybe some problem with you Linux configuration. Can you try this instead ?

chcon --reference=/path/to/existingfile /path/to/a/newfile

I am on 11/4 update v20E. I have reported this problem before and today i experienced it in a worse way.
Original issue :
when phone is idle, screen is off and locked. an incoming call or an alarm triggers the screen on but you are unable to interact with the UI until 3~4 seconds.

Worse condition:
So it happened twice that I woke up to my alarm after a few hours of no activity on phone . so phone was on deep sleep. when the alarm went off. I was unable to turn it off no matter what. The UI would not let me interact with it. So i had to use power button to reboot the phone. It looks like this issue is caused by deeper sleep i think ?

Yes, I meant that. XDA made an emoji out of it for me . I kept trying, but it wouldn't work!

The latter did work, however. Actually, I wasn't patient enough to wait for you to reply, so I used an existing file in the folder as reference. You're missing an "-R" in your code, though. Right before the "--reference."

Thanks anyway! I'm all fine now!

Congrate, happy modding.

Did you install any kind of software like Greenify with agressive doze enabled ?

Nope. haven't installed any software that controls app management , battery management or messes with scheduling in anyway.

@jskasia: Is it possible to add IMS and VoLTE settings in you MOD?

 

[jskasia]

Sorry, I don't know how. Do you have some guide ?

 

[MitoTakatori]

Will V20e be updated with the updates in V20d?

I reflashed the kdz but did not apply the new system image and the touch problem isn't there. Have you tried to reproduce the issue as I mentioned?

 

[jskasia]

While the v20d base does not support genisys 2.0, the system of V20e has the most recent update mod except the look. Please feel free to stay on either version because they are similar though.

I see. Does this mean that V20d UI is not Genisys 2.0? And V20e already have the latest mods on the latest update, except AOSP icons? I am a bit confused on those updates. Thanks for answering.

So now I decided to stay at V20e as per my understanding, has the latest updates including Genisys 2.0 UI. Correct me if I am wrong there.

I am a bit confused with the updates since, the latest is on V20d. But as per OP, it's the same as V20e update except the AOSP icons.

A confirmation is very helpful. Thanks in advance.

Okay, I see your point.

- Both base (without the mod) are different as following aspects:
1) Only v20e has the search menu in setting.
2) Only v20d has recording function while taking on the phone.
3) Andriod security patch in v20e is April 2016 while v20d is August 2016 (Quadrooter fixed).
4) v20e released for AME, ESA region, v20d released for EU,CIS region (Some user have problem with IMS forced close when install the wrong base, others see no difference)

- So far I cannot notice the visual difference between Genisys theme 1.8 and 2.0. The performance are almost the same too.

- The the version with the longer SOT got the lower in benchmark score, but it did not affect user experience at all. However, this might be vary on the life time of battery, user behavior, etc.,.)

Finally. Thanks a lot mate! I understand it better now. For the V20d, there is a additional mod namely the AOSP icons + 6 toggles, right? I am on v20e and they are not present.
