[GEE] Vanir 4.4.4 - LG Optimus G (International)

This is not the same rom as "Vanir" in Orig Development, becuase it's GEE based and there are the newest nightly builds, the Vanir from Orig Development is Gproj based and the last build is 4.4.2 from December 2013 - outdated and without significant features​Firstly, all below is not my work... I just wanted to share it, because on my e975 it works like a charm
it has full of less or more tweak and features like:
- Halo, Hover, Heads Up
- Floating Mode
- Active Display
- Peek
- etc...
Here is the original thread.

I recommend Franco kernel (from faust93 thread), it's batter efficient.
But if you like check these kernels... (MiRaGe, AK and mart1x)
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B9EFp1W1O3f2SFVaNGg4SzVHelk&usp=sharing
If you use any of these kernels i suggest flashing this too (after flashing you have to install "Synapse" from Google Play):
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B77BTW0zStYCU0VOa3FHY2NNTjQ&usp=sharing&tid=0B77BTW0zStYCSTRIYWpZQS1nOWs
This (with Synapse app) lets you control many different hotplug version like Autohotplug, Autosmp or MSM Hotplug (I'm almost sure that Trickster Mod can't do that), also it has a lot of options to tweak your kernel.
You can also check out these drivers for better performance ( for me i think the march adreno drivers are the fastest +100 to 3d in antutu)
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B77BTW0zStYCU0VOa3FHY2NNTjQ&usp=sharing&tid=0B77BTW0zStYCSTRIYWpZQS1nOWs
Just let me know which combination of kernel and drivers are working the best (the most in performance)
Enjoy

Pretty sure there's already a thread for Vanir Gee in original android development, be careful your post may be removed. Anyway, did you get the camera working properly without stretching and stuff?

Yes, there is Vanir in original android development, but it's 4.3 (stable) and 4.4.2 nighlty build from Dec 2013 - so it's outdated.
Furthermore, it's made from Gproj sources. This one is for Gee and it has daily updates/nightlies (last from 2nd Sep).
About camera there are three little bugs:
- when you turn on HDR, the camera preview is a bit stretched (but the photo is made as it should, i mean, it has bigger fov than preview).
- the camera app starts a little bit slow, you have to wait about 2 seconds.
Probably you mean aspect ratio problem (the preview is a bit vertically stretched) ? This camera doesn't have true view (true aspect ratio mode). When you change image size to 6MP , there is no problem.
If you want to have 4:3 preview (in 13MP) you have to flash PA rom, make a TB backup of camera app, then flash Vanir, and delete Vanir camera app (otherwise the PA cam won't replace the Vanir one), then restore PA cam, (don't reboot till restore or you can have some problems with cam).
It was working on Gproj roms, i haven't tried it on Gee roms, but probably you'll need Gee based PA. Hope it helps.

Just discovered that faust93 has released an experimental kernel which fixes camera bugs on gee roms if you're interested

Yes, I'm interested... (you mean using stock kk kernel camera drivers or sth?) maybe i could contact with vanir devs to impelemt it into their nightlies. Is it a zip, or some kind of terminal typing (like in volume keys trick)?

He has used stock kk kernel drivers yes, he has an experimental kernel out that works but to implement it into an existing kernel you need to patch it which i dont know how to do. Awesome news though!

About the camera,i didn't see any problems with camera (maybe you have other camera hw module) , can you record your screen?
edit: patching doesn't seem too hard, there's a program which does it if you have patch source, but if someone doesn't know C well this can be really hard
BTW
I don't even know how too anyway, i'm often dissatisfied of kernels (always there's a lack of sth), so maybe i'll try to build my own (sounds crazy).
I'm thinking about modifying franco kernel (such a great work, but no cpu & gpu oc and gpu uv) for aosp, or sth for gproj (f93 is great but no oc, solid has oc but in the end f93 has less slowdowns in games and it has faux123's hotplug & thermal).

It fixes camera stretch, improves the quality and photosphere and pano work in Google Camera. Building a kernel sounds fun

Downloadin the exp version of franco, did you noticed any bugs except vk and 13mp problem?

Vk? 13mp camera bug is ROM dependent. On dirty unicorns the official camera is 8mp but every other camera app on Google play is 13mp. Battery life is men but it might be DU. Trying vanir tonight.

VK i mean volume keys bug, when i was using DU with AK-xGenesis kernel, battery life was poor (maybe to much app wakelocks). In my opininion CM11 (with f93 gproj kernel) and "the rom posted above " (with franco ) has very good battery life.

I think its different ROMs. In Vanir the volume key bug is present, in DU its the same. In PA and TEMASEK it is not. Where did you say faust's volume key trick was?
EDIT: Found it but don't think it's compatible with Vanir.

Temasek? You mean unofficial cm? Btw, maybe it will work, just try, i noticed the volume key bug is kernel related too (it seems the VK bug is a relic from original nexus 4 version) (on Sprint OG Franco Kernel there no inverted keys ,check it out -> http://d-h.st/3kM ). Btw Vanir is mainly CM based (i've seen it somewhere but i don't remember where)
Some offtopic:
I'm not sure, but the performance is rom relative too? Some builds are slower, some faster (even if both are 4.4 roms).
I wonder why the 4.4 builds are slower than 4.3 ones. Vanir 4.3 was really ultra lighting fast, never seen such a fast rom, some roms with oc gpu & cpu were not as fast a Vanir 4.3 with f93 [email protected] stock cpu & gpu freq. What is that magical , maybe gpu driver (tried some kk adreno drivers, but there were no big effect).
Look, i've migrated from vanir 4.3 to cm11 m8 (then m9), on both roms i was using f93 kernel with the same settings, but the difference in Antutu 5.0 is about 2-3k ( on 3d test vanir works much more fluid), in games 4.3 works better too.
Hmmm... If 4.3 kernel can work without any problems on 4.4 (i mean f93 gproj), so maybe a jb 4.3 driver could be work (with some modifications) on 4.4. Probably you already know what I'm lookin for, i want as great performance as on Vanir 4.3 and ART runtime (or shortly the most power)
(It had a rom thread, but it looks more like a disscussion, LOL)

Sorry I've been busy with school but sounds good. So you aren't on a gee ROM anymore? I'm on PA gee and the volume keys bug is present but I'm working round it. By TEMASEK I mean faust93's unofficial CM yes.

Yep, just as you, i still changing rom... Vanir 4.4.4 is packed of features and pretty stable... but for the performance is the most important, gee kernels are too weak for me (or maybe it's a rom issue). I'll try the TEMASEK

remember build 15-01 is a Lollipop ROm. If you're using Jolla kernel ( gee/geeb/stock ) version, please:
- Before flash, format boot.img and format system in Advanced setting at Recovery
- Make sure your bootloader is updated to lastest Lollipop version ( mako )
- The best way to flash Lollipop Rom if you have a problem like bootloop or freezing is try to KDZ and return to stock, root and install recovery again.

Yeah that's all cool but the thing I am hoping to see is more stability. The 2.6.35 kernel was very stable. The 3.0.x kernel is not so stable.

Dont know about 2.6.35, but 3.0.x not stable because all using CM kernel for base. CM kernel base on CAF sources, not on LG original sources.
3.4 working very good for me. Battery life and performance on Stock 4.1 are great without any dirty tweaks and patches in kernel!

CM took the lu6200 ICS sources and added display stuff from caf.
The original lge ICS ota was unstable for all iproj devices.
I have a weak p930 that will be the judge of the new 3.4 kernel. It reboots about every 5 to 15 minutes under the ics kernel. I will try when I get sources... No sources, no install...
Can't wait to flash this once WiFi is working
I don't have unlimited data and use WiFi a lot.
Flashed this ROM. It looks very good except WIFI issue. Am now testing battery drain. Looking for WiFi fix.
I've been checking this thread every
Hour for a WiFi fix... I use this as a WiFi only device so the lackthereof is a killer right now for me... That being said if anyone has a lead on what's breaking it I would love to help find a fix for the problem. Really never thought we would see a jb release for our device from LG but I believe it will be a major stepping stone for future development of our P93x's. Once again I wanna thank miroslav and all the other great devs and tinkerers who bust their asses to make our phones into beasts, and I look forward to seeing what awesomeness will come with these recent leaks.

to keep it short:
baseband has nothing to do with ROM. (you have to flash it manually, never changes on ROM flash. the 77 one is the last from stock rom )
now difrences between vanir aosp & Iridescent_Zed_III:
vanir aosp:
- its latest android KK 4.4.2 running on 3.4 kernel (new & powerful, but not as stable as stock.)
Iridescent_Zed_III:
-its BASED on android ICS 4.0.4 running on 2.x.xx kernel (dont know exact) its based on latest firmware we've got official from SONY. its the stablest one, when you will. but its laggy & old.
there are many things affecting the wifi (drivers inside rom, kernel, baseband, ''tweaks'' inside, even router's play a role, etc....) so its hard to say what exactly will make it better / worse. you will have to test it yourself to say if its better or not.
my advice: you say vanir had the better wifi, but its to ''heavy'' (even i dunno what u mean exactly..) so i would recommend to give Legacy Xperia ROM a shot. i think you will get the most out of it. also if you dont need to have the latest android (just want USE your phone) then use android 4.2.2 JB (CM10.1) its the bets mix of power & still very usable. in addition its keep very clean & lightweight.

[INFO] SlimKat on E975

Hi everyone,
I've changed the focus of this thread to collect all the info and help about installing the geeb version of SlimKat on our E975.
After having SlimKat by @fusionjack on my I9100 as a daily driver and seen its smoothness and stability, I've found the geeb version of the latest SlimKat and would like to have it on our E975.
Feel free to post all that can help to make it work on our Optimus G
Thanks in advance to all that will give an hand
UPDATE​
After a full wipe, all went good!
Currently running SlimKat on E975 without problems with @gearslam Ak-xGenesis Slimport-MOD kernel
Just follow the usual steps if you are coming from another rom, like me:
- Wipe data/factory reset
- Wipe /cache
- Wipe /system
- Flash SlimKAT build
- Flash gapps package of your choice
- Optional: flash adreno update package
- Flash kernel
- Optional, but with my E975 I always do this at the end: flash SuperSU zip
- Reboot
All done!
All the sources for those too lazy to search XD
- SlimKAT builds: www.slimroms.net or @arcardinal thread HERE
- Gapps package, I prefer the micro modular one: HERE
- @gearslam kernel, the one tested, but other gee kernels may do the work anyway: HERE
- Adreno drivers april update: HERE
I think that's alla for now
Thanks to all the respective creators of kernels, rom and so on
Would also love an official SlimKat build for e975. A few devs gave it a go but couldn't fix multiple errors. The good news is that all you need to do is flash franco mod kernel after flashing geeb SlimKat
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701843

Hi everyone,
I'm a newcomer here in the E975 section, as I've floated around the I9100 for some months
Since I really like @fusionjack unofficial SaberMod SlimKat, I'd like to build one for the E975.
I've found a geeb build HERE and I would like to know if it's possible, starting from that, to port that to our E975, or if a simple gee kernel is enough.
I'm a newbie in building roms from scratch, and for that I'm googlin' a lot while BBQLinux iso is downloading
Any help, hint or advice is really appreciated

geeb is a cdma version of og... so after flashing the geeb rom u need to flash a gee kernel so that uget signal and data... it dont need port or anything else..u can flash any geeb rom and compatible gee kernel to get it work....what happens if you flash only geeb rom without kernel.........???? nothing happens it flashes and you would be able to boot the rom and everything will be working except fot mobile signals...if you are licky enough you may have signals also ... lol
So the steps are:
- flash geeb SlimKat rom
- flash gapps package
- flash mod kernel (franco or similar, but they must be MOD version right?)
- reboot
One last question: will the camera be recognized as a 8 mpx or will I find all my 13 mpx? XD
Thanks guys

IF YOU FLSH GEEB KERNEL U GET 8MP CAM .. IF U FLASH GEE KERNEL U GET 13MP CAM.. :good:
OK, tried the latest geeb SlimKat weekly with the slim gapps package and 2 MOD kernels, FrancoMOD and AK-Genesis by @gearslam, but at the reboot have had only fc's.
All I've wiped are /cache, /dalvik and /system, not data, to not lost all the apps installed.
Will try with a complete wipe and let you know asap

What about the camera?
On any rom based on AOSP, including SlimKat, the camera can not focus on objects that are further away 20 cm from the phone.
Generally speaking i touch to focus no matter what rom, even stock. Slim camera focus is much better than 20cm. I use several camera apps too, again irrespective of rom. Just backup current rom, give slim a whirl, if you dont like it just reinstall backup

Back to the I9100 days, I can say from my experience that the SaberMod version by @fusionjack was the best rom regarding stability, smoothness and battery
For that reason I was so happy to see that a geeb version exists, and would like to try it even on my E975
I thought i just learned that geeb was for The e970 and gee/geehrc was for The e975 sprint and international version?

Hi everyone, using the slimkat from some weeks, all OK.
The only thing is: random touch not responding at all sometime. I have to reboot to make it work again.
Do I have to set some settings with trickstermod since I've tried ak-xgenesis and ported Francomod kernel?
@nchc and others can you give some hints?
Thanks in advance ?
I never had any issues with slim. I just got bored and eventually went back to stock. I was on an earlier build and most likely earlier kernel too . When i get home ill c what kernel i had, perhaps you could flash that to see if it improves touch issues. Have you updated to latest weekly and moded kernel?
Sent from my LG-E975 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Well I'm on latest weekly 5.4 with Francomod r206, since there's no update from then for the kernel, and the issue seems to be gone for now. Maybe I was having some problems due to gearslam ak-xgenesis ported kernels?
Thanks for now
An update just to let you know that weekly 5.8 is working good with francomod kernel ? 4.4.3 is working good 'til now ?
I would like to try slim on my international e975. Which modded kernel should I download? GEE or GEEB? Can anyone please let me know??
Those for gee and with MOD in the name: francomod4gee for example ?
Another update just to say that even with gearslam's ak ported kernels it works like a charm

[Q] Most stable KitKat ROM for Desire Z?

Im wondering right now what is the most stable KitKat ROM for the Desire Z? I know it cant be stable AND no lag so lets just go with stable....Right now, I have a 4.2.2 ROM that is OK but sometimes it reboots ALL day and suddenly stops and is stable (and no lag).
Which 4.2.2 rom do you have?
For now, nothing on KK is better than the AlterNdromadus 4.2.2

Its guhl's permissions ROM.
I am not looking for a 4.2.2 ROM. I asked for a 4.4.x ROM.
Thank you for your reply but that is not what I am asking
so try purekat, it's not stable but for me the most stable

To be clear, I wanted to tell you that KK Roms are far away from being as stable as this 4.2.2 rom.
So, I went back on 4.2.2.
The only thing that are better on KK : the clock, dialer and contact apps (aesthetically)
I'm waiting for PureKat beta3 (after Marco's exams !).

To be clear, I wanted to ask what KK ROM is the most stable.
So, I never mentioned anything about 4.2.2.
Besides, AlterNdromadus 4.2.2 being a CM ROM, is problably slow as hell compared to AOSP....

It is not IMO.
I just gave you my feed-back. You're free to test it by yourself. I will be happy if you find a KK Roms which deserve to stay on it on our device...

No, your preconceptions are incorrect. Firstly, CM is based on AOSP and does not diverge away enough (ala MIUI) to ruin performance. Secondly, CM is actually better performing because with CM we have more up to date libs etc. especially for qcom stuff like libhardware. Due to there never being AOSP support for this device and HTC stopping official support at 2.3, then clearly CM stuff is gonna work better for our device. Why do you think the Andromadus team stopped AOSP 4.2.2 after beta8?
Now the one case where AOSP is faster (for me) is Fyodor's 4.2.2 ROM, because he put in the effort to get all the libhardware stuff and qcom display stuff working nicely.
If you don't believe me then sync the latest Andromadus AOSP 4.2.2 source (as of around the end of 2012 I think), build it, and tell me you prefer it to their most recent CM build.

This is true, and the only advice I can give also. Besides, there are only 2 KitKat ROMs to choose from: Andromadus test builds or Marco's PureKat (CyanKat, AOSB are out of date so won't be stable).
I might like to add that this thread is against the rules anyway so you should be grateful it hasn't been reported yet and accept the advice you've recieved (which has been good).
Essentially, for stability go with 4.2.2, for most stable KitKat it will take you a total of 2 whole flashes to find out which one you prefer.

Every 4.2.2 ROM Ive tried that is based on CM vs AOSP is slower. On AOSP you lose some nice features, but Its always seemed slower and more of a memory hogger.
Seems to me that way anyways.

Newer isnt always better.
Also:
I was thinking of updating this, but I've lost my G2. I can't blind dev and I ran into enough difficulties as it was when I could test it. Java is just too confusing for me right now, so much more confusing than C which I'm only just starting to get comfy with. Unfortunately the lag is just a problem you'll have to get used to, backup and clean flash and wait a while. I couldn't do anything tobhelp you anyway, I just don't know how. I can give you the age ole tips: no task killers, no placebo scripts, minimal apps, minimal gapps, no hangouts, no Facebook, no heavy browsers (opera mini is great) but yeah I'm really sorry but there won't be any updates. As it is I think the ROM works well anyway. I'm no dev so if you want someone to support then turn to Flinny, Marco, NeverGone, etc. It sucks that my goal to have a stable sorta up to date ROam was dashed but that's life. Thanks to the people who liked the ROM anyway

1: Java is more confusing than C? Wow....
2: Saying "lag is just a problem youll have to get used to" is a no no. Like I mentioned, the ROM Im currently on is almost lagless but just has the problem of suddenly becoming stupid and rebooting all the time. Other than that, it is great.
3: Saying that the ROM works well anyways when you are mentioning that it lags and also recommending several comprimises like no heavy browsers and no minimal apps is just a no-no. Im sure this ROM had its time and its moment but its been out matched.
I guess Ill stay on this ROM for now and hope that KK development gets better. That or Phonebloks...
Im using a lower end phone these days because of a nonrelated issue and it already has 4.4.2! Im just surprised.
It also works pretty damn good considering the speed and RAM it has.
For me AOSB 1.2.9 is faster but Flinny's alpha3 is most stable because using AOSB it some times gets reboot especially when open es file explorer .quick pic etc.But AOSB consumes a lot of customizations its really good.

All ROMs - both official builds from Google and Custom ROMS from our talented developers here on XDA - have bugs. Just a fact of digital life!
If you want the most stable build available, you're probably best served by Google's official releases. Scroll down for the different GNex versions/links.
If you want Lollipop, check out the Android Development board. Plenty of great developers and ROMs to chose from there. I have a 5.1 ROM linked in my signature below, as well.

thanks for the answer. i will try this 5.1 rom. Some roms have little bugs, and others like lollipop roms make the device not good for daily driver, like the camera not saving pictures, green lines on video etc. i will try some roms and leave the most stable on his device, but i think i will flash 4.1.2 in the end.

I've tested out many of the newest ROM'S and I'm still not impressed with the overall functionality of them when compared to the 4.1.2 PA ROM I've been running for over 2.5 yrs now.

Man this device was a pain for me today. after wiping to install 4.1.2 the device disconnected. and the usb connector i think is faulty. i had to flash every bit of rom in fastboot and a lot of errors. so i installed 4.0 rom because system.img was smaller and took a lot of time to copy the 300mb file and finally the device booted. i ota to 4.1.1 and i think i will ota manually to 4.1.2 because on device already appeared 4.2.2 ota. do you think is worth update all the way to 4.3? the device is smooth and i like the camera app better than 4.2 rom with that awful lag to rotate. do you think is better have an updated device or keep it in 4.1.2?
AOSP Lollipop 5.1- a wee better than stock is the best lollipop I could find yet. It is near-stock Android, and the overall performance is very good comparing it to the age of this device. The only bad thing I can say about this device isbthat the battery is draining faster(it might be an issue with my phone). If you are brave enough(such brave, much wow), you can try to overclock to 1.5 and the performance will improve by a lot
