Good morning!
As I´m new to the N7100, I tried to figure out what exactly is working out of the box when switching to 240 (250) dpi. Sadly, these informations seem to be fragmented all over the board and I was not able to sum them up or get some straight infos on that. So I would like to collect them right here (including solutions).
I would apreciate your help! I need to know what of the following is working normally ad if not, how to "repair" it:
1.) Dailer & Contacts (should get smaller I think and I´m sure that there is still no workaround)
2.) S-Note
3.) Market
4.) Camera
5.) (...)
get the 240dpi rom and u should get most to work except alarm clock

Hey, thank you for your post! Sadly, this doesn´t answer my question! I just want to know what works out of the box (as stated above), that means I want to know what will work if my device is rooted and I´m changing the DPI on Stock (or Omega or whatever Rom I want).

This ROM is based on AOSP KitKat. I wanted to release something before the holidays, so LucidPhusion was born! This is as close as you're going to get to the G2 experience on KitKat! Most G2 items are present, a few are not, and a few new items have been added. But as with any custom ROM, I aim to make this better than stock, so I think everyone will be pleased...
I have tested as much as possible, above and beyond. However, if someone finds a bug or error, please let me know. DO NOT PM me as others may have the same issue and it is better to answer it once here than a thousand times through PMs.
Please read this OP carefully before posting questions as many answers can be found here. To reiterate, PLEASE READ THIS OP CAREFULLY BEFORE POSTING QUESTIONS. Other answers may already be in the posts of this thread...

LG CAMERA
The LG camera included is far from perfect, but it will get the job done! There are a couple issues such as front-facing camera, burst mode, and panorama create FC's. It is recommended to install another camera for these features.
The ROM has been set to a different DPI so that the title of some apps are not hidden. However, this makes the LG camera resize its viewing area to be smaller. It does not hinder quality or take smaller pictures, but this can be an annoyance for some. If you wish to reverse this, please check ISSUES & FIXES.
WIRELESS STORAGE
"Wireless Storage" is an actual app, it just doesn't show up anywhere but in the pull-down settings of the stock G2 ROM. I went ahead and found the easiest alternative imaginable called, "WiFi File Transfer".
Open the app and click "Start Service". There will be a FTP address. Do not place this address in a web browser, open up My Computer and type the address into that window. A web browser will only allow downloading (not uploading) from the phone.
NAVBAR TRANSPARENCY ENABLER
If the need for extra real estate is a must, then I've got you covered! Download and flash this file. This ZIP will install an app called "full!screen".
Enable Soft Keys
1) When the phone reboots open "full!screen".
2) The app will look for root, grant root permissions when prompted.
NOTE: It may state that no root is found at first, but about 2-3 minutes later a popup will appear asking to grant root permissions.
3) If the button to enable "full!screen mode" is still grayed out, reboot the phone.
4) Open "full!screen" again, and click the "full!screen mode" button.
5) The native navbar and soft keys are now gone and replaced by two unobtrusive soft keys.
NOTE: If using TWRP, do not flash this with other ZIPs.
Flash this file to delete the "full!sceen" app and enable the native soft keys.
KNOCKON ENABLER
There are two options to have a fuller KnockOn experience:
Lock Screen Widget - KnockOff
1) Download and flash the "Lock Screen Widget".
2a) Open the app.
2b) OPTIONAL: Go into "Lock Icon Options" and configure the app to be invisible and at its largest size. Position it somewhere on the home screen (the center is ideal).
4) Click on the widget to get an activation screen, and confirm.
5) Click the invisible widget to lock the screen.
Lock Screen Widget - ShakeOff
1) Download and flash the "Lock Screen Widget".
2) Open the app.
3) Turn off "Show lock icon".
4) Turn on "Shake lock".
5) Shake the phone for a few seconds to get an activation screen, and confirm.
6) The phone will now lock the screen when shaken.
Flash this file to delete the "Lock Screen Widget" app.
QUESTIONS
Will there be an odexed version?
No.
There's something I want, can you add it?
Maybe. It depends on if I think it will benefit everyone, and how much it adds to the ROM. Post a request.
Will this work with my variant?
No. If you want a port, PM me about it so you can test for me if and when I decide to do so. Requests can also be made for variants in the thread.
Why don't you use an AROMA installer?
I experimented with the newest version, but it is just overly convoluted with menu pages and could be confusing when trying to determine how to actually flash the ROM. I had decent success with an older version, but in both versions, there were times where the installer would not go back to recovery and would cause a boot loop from not installing properly. The old methods are best.
I want such-and-such app, can you put it in the ROM?
Not likely, unless it is a G2 app (that works) I have overlooked.
Is there different keyboards?
No. There is just the LG G2 keyboard.
Can I flash this zip even though my recovery doesn't "lokify" items (e.g. kernels)?
You should be able to flash on any available recovery without issue.
ISSUES & FIXES
After First Boot - I am asked to choose between the Home or Lock Screen launchers after completing the phone setup. What do I do?
Click on "Home" and select "Always".
After First Boot - When I first boot up I get an error message that brings me to Google Play Services in the Play Store. What do I do?
Go to Settings>Apps>ALL and click on Google Account Manager. Uncheck the "Show notifications" box and confirm.
After First Boot *OPTIONAL* - I want to update Google Play Store to the newest release. What do I do?
"Easy Installer" has been installed with the latest ROM (and can be uninstalled). The most recent release of the Google Play Store has been copied to the SD card of the phone. Enable "Unknown sources" under Settings>Security first, then open "Easy Installer" and wait until it finishes loading. Select Google Play Store and click "Install".
After First Boot *WARNING* - I changed some settings for the lock screen and now it just gets stuck on the lock screen. What do I do?
It is recommended to NEVER OPEN the lock screen settings. Once opened it will begin to cause this issue. However, if you really want to change the few settings available, there are two fixes: a) The best option is to wait until the screen turns itself off. Once it does, it will go back to normal. b) For a quick, but temporary fix click the soft key for apps opened and dismiss all.
NOTE: On reboot, the lock screen will get stuck again.
The lock screen is not present. What do I do?
The lock screen may take a second or two to appear.
Some apps do not seem to work properly. What do I do?
Change the date and time. Changing just the timezone should adjust everything else accordingly.
LG SmartWorld gives me a message that my phone model is not supported. What do I do?
Unfortunately, there is nothing that can be done about this until LG makes the appropriate fixes. It will work for some, and not for others.
I would prefer to have a full viewing screen in the LG camera in exchange for partially hidden titles of some apps. What do I do?
Use the "BuildProp Editor" included in the ROM. Open the app and type "density" into the search bar. Only one value should appear. Change the value to "480" and reboot the phone.
The LG G2 keyboard is in single-hand mode. What do I do?
There is a small keyboard icon on the bottom of the keyboard itself. Press the icon and choose the dual-hand option.
I want to use a different keyboard, but I get a FC after pressing "Open" in the Google Play Store. What do I do?
Go to Settings>Language & input and check the box for the new keyboard, then change the default keyboard to the new one.
I am using the "WiFi File Transfer", but I can't upload any files. What do I do?
Open up My Computer and type the FTP address into that window. A web browser will only allow downloading (not uploading) from the phone.
I used the NAVBAR TRANSPARENCY ENABLER, but on a reboot the soft keys aren't showing. What do I do?
Give the soft keys about 30 seconds and they will show.
APN FIX
This should actually be under ISSUES & FIXES, but I decided it should be more prominent. If there is no mobile data after flashing this ROM perform one of these methods:
Simple Method
Revert to stock ROM (or any custom ROM where mobile data does work).
Download this file and this file.
Extract the contents of "APN2.rar" to a folder on your PC.
Double-click "APN2SD.bat" and follow the instructions. OR, double-click "APN2FOLDER.bat" and follow the instructions.
NOTE: If you clicked the "APN2SD.bat", the "apns-conf.xml" file will be on the SD card of your phone. If you clicked the "APN2FOLDDER.bat", the "apns-conf.xml" file will be in the folder you extracted the contents to.
Use 7z or WinRAR to open the "FlashAPN.zip" (do not extract the contents).
Go to /system/etc/
Place the "apns-conf.xml" file inside the "etc" folder of "FlashAPN.zip".
Put "FlashAPN.zip" on your phone's SD card.
Flash LucidPhusion.
Boot into recovery.
Flash "FlashAPN.zip".
Reboot into the OS.
The correct APN settings should now display.
Manual Method
Revert to stock ROM (or any custom ROM where mobile data does work).
Download and open a file explorer like Root Explorer or ES Explorer.
Go to /system/etc
Copy "apns-conf.xml".
Go to /sdcard/
Paste "apns-conf.xml".
Flash LucidPhusion.
Download a file explorer and open it.
Copy "apns-conf.xml".
Go to /system/etc
Paste "apns-conf.xml" (overwriting the existing file).
Reboot the phone.
Mobile data should now work.
Please also send me a copy of the "apns-conf.xml" via PM so that I can include it in any future updates.
INSTALLATION
1) Do a Factory Reset.
2) Flash the ZIP.
3) Follow the steps for first-time booting in ISSUES & FIXES (including Google Play update!).
OPTIONAL I: Flash the Navbar and/or KnockOn ENABLERs.

No offense but funny why you would assume stock rom better than custom rom? Long time ago people start to develop custom rom and abandon stock rom because custom rom is way better

That is total BS! Till this day the Stock ROM from @g.lewarne and CleanROM XE both with custom kernel from @g.lewarne are by far THE best ROMs considering battery/performance balance and NONE of the custom ROMs has come even near that and I have tried CarbonROM 4.3.1, CM 10.2, CM11, PA 3.99 and PA 4.0. Battery life with those 2 stock baby's is just insane! They are all very nice, stable and perform very good. But stock beats them all for me. And I can't wait for stock 4.4 cause I know it will be my next daily driver.
PS: I do however agree that stock is not the best looking ROM out there. KK is the winner in that category.
Sound Good
Are pop up call and pop up sms features there ? For me this is the best feature from Stock, at least for me , IF not could you please add them
Use file explore. Go back.to another aosp or lg rom, download a apn back up app. Back up apns. Reflash rom. Open file cmfile explorer . Open app apn back up. Hot restore from back up and BOOOOOOM!
I got data on my D801?????WHAT U TALKIN BUT WILLIS

****If u are on anything besides d802 you must swap boot.img from another rom similar that is your variant and flash kernel for your variant afterwards. ##***FILE MANAGER in playstore.app has yellow folder and little gear on the front. Must open apo settings, enable root and mount system.

Easy fix for issue with unsatisfactory experience with ROM. Bugger off and don't post negative opinions in a development thread. Nothing personal but the amount of time and energy I and many others have spent just trying to help devs much less code myself is unbelievable. We just had a Thanksgiving Holiday, wish people could learn to be thankful. Sorry for the rant.

Cant install any other keyboard (I'm not using the LG one cuz it sucks bigtime for me), Settings FCs.
I miss the option to have a navbar button that pulls down the Statusbar, my thumb aint that long !
Anyway, going back to PAC or Stock. Every ROM that I've tried from you has some kind of errors that make the ROM unuseable for me :/,
I still appreciate your work tho.

you no need to post that, if rom is no good to you simple do'nt use, for me stock is like trash.
matheus_sc, your post is completely useless.
I found a bug and made a suggestion. In addition, you got a piece of my mind concerning the ROM.
If you dont like what I wrote, then just back off.
If I didnt have any bugs to report or to suggest a feature, I wouldnt have posted at all.
Anyway, I will keep watching this ROM for bugfixex/additional features, because I like the general idea.
Keep up the good work, Heatshiver!
This is a cry for help, from me and the other NOOBs out here, new to the theming world with no idea where to begin.
I started out with a problem. I hate the UI on my Note Edge Lollipop, as compared to the stock Lollipop ASOP UI. I started about trying to change the entire UI (icons, menus, fonts, notification drawer, app drawer etc) to stock AOSP Lollipop UI. I am not rooted.
I AM LOST. No idea which guide to follow. Don't want to change my launcher. I would prefer not to root, would prefer not to void my warranty, would just prefer to screw around as less as possible while getting as close to stock Lollipop as possible.
And I know there are others around me. So here I am, on behalf of the noobs, requesting all experts to provide a starting point from where to begin changing the UI - completely, with as little messing around as possible. Not just to AOSP but to any other UI that someone else might prefer. Please explain this to us like we are 3 year olds.
1) Options for those who are Not Rooted.
2) Options for those who are Rooted.
Ps. This will not work if only the experts contribute. Everyone here who has something to contribute please do!
Ps. Mods I looked and searched for days. I know there are guides out there but I wanted something Note Edge and Lollipop specific.
As my contribution. I love the work that this Dev has done for the Note 4. But don't know if this will work on our devices. Also Im not rooted yet.

The new TouchWiz on the S6 has themes. Pray that they port it over to us and any other features it has like they used to do before with those Experience updates during the S3 and Note 2 periods...
Mate, there isn't actually a lot you can do for theming without rooting your device. Most themes replace icons in the system files which is impossible to access without root or without being officially supported by Samsung...
The only real way to theme your un-rooted Note Edge is to change the launcher and theme that...
My wishes seem to have been answered within a week. The new Samsung themes app is all we need. Let's hope we get it fast.

Lollipop Touchwiz Theme
Here is themes app for Lollipop touchwiz http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/themes-apps/touchwiz-theme-lollipop-note-4-t3037891. I tryed and it worked. Just don`t flash the zip (that makes your touchwiz home to FC). Just extract the zip and copy all content of zip`s system folder in your devices system folder as it is in zip, except Toucwiz home. Reboot and all done. Now you can change touchwiz themes as you like

The contacts, mms, and settings zips all work on N915G NK4 KITKAT. Framework zip makes xpossd and some modules FC.
hi, i have used md4 v10, 12 and 13 and noticed some differences in the way some apk's install. For e.g. i customize apk's a lot based on my needs. For e.g. any regular app i am able to customize, install it and open it and it opens up the modified app. Normally when you install app, you get 2 options "Done" and "Open". 'Open" launches the app.
For some apps like "IncallUI.apk", the "Open" button is grayed out. The way v10 behaves is different from v12 and 13 and am trying to understand what is the difference between these 3 ROM's. I have seen this v10 sort of behavior in many other ROM's as well.
So, when i modify/customize 'incallui.apk', then install it as a normal app, it installs just fine on all 3 versions however when i make a call to check the new interface, no changes are seen in v10 but the changes reflect in v12 and v13. The only way I can then test is to replace the app, reboot and then try making a call. It works this way but it is not a easy process specially when there is a solution already in place for v12 and v13.
Would you know why the modified and successfully installed app does not show/reflect the new changes in v10 and many other ROMS?
Thanks in advance
