I've been using Moto and samsung phones for a long time. I've become very familiar with sammys odin and loaded and modified many roms.
I just got the LG G3 851 (TMO) phone and have it running on cricket wireless. Did some research and have some questions if you can help out.
1)Can i flash 855 (international) roms?
2)No official Cyanogen roms but a couple CM based ones seem to be out there. Anyone use it as a daily driver? Known major issues? camera, wifi, sd card?
thanks

I just came to my first LG about a week ago after HTC EVO series, then S3, Note 3 and 4. Right now, I would recommend stock rooted, with SkyDragon kernel untouched. I froze about 67 elements, use xposed with gravity box, greenify, and a few other modules. On T-mo 10r, and tried several AOSP/CM/PA based, as well as a modified stock. It seems to me that until the official 5.02 official image is released, we are stuck with new problems with lolli, and old problems with old stock based. Best to setup what ya got the way you like it for now. Don't know if this is applicable to you on cricket, just sharing my experience/opinion. Good thing is that even full stock LG is around 700Mb smaller than Touchwiz. Just had to deal with locked bootloader for the first time in a while. Good luck!:good:

thanks, good advice. My phone came with illusion and its quirky but fast on Lolli. I'm glad recovery was already on it so i didn't have to go through your unlocking.

Firmware is not compatible. You will brick your phone.

All the G3 variants have slightly different internals, so no, flashing anything that specifically doesn't say it will work for 851 is very bad and will give you a pretty new paper weight. The cyanogen site should have 851 on it to download.

Never used Trickstermod, so I can't tell you how it works on the G3. I know it's not on their official support list, but that doesn't mean it won't work either. No reason you can't install busybox if you are rooted.

Yes. Make sure you do a full backup (make sure your backup has EFS) Then you can also just flash back to your backup.

Flash SkyDragon kernel, and use paid trickster, set according to OP kernel forum. I have 67 elements frozen via Titanium, use greenify, and SkyDragon on stock rooted. Get 30-64 hours depending. YMMV :good:

Yes. My M919V from Wind (using it on Virgin) got an update this morning. MDC to MDJ now. The firmwares posted on samfirmware are the newer ones that includes today's 18 Mb update.
I didn't notice any difference as of yet. The description only read "Stability Improvements".
Me too I got update on videtron .
Guys now that you have open this topic it will nice to have real guide for our version for Rooting andvalso listing whic recovery and Rom work on Videtron / wind version.
I am too scared to brick the phine so I need guide from people who already done it.

Is there any root for our version?
I had my S4 crash on me once so I'm assuming the update fixed that. I'm not sure what caused the crash but it reminded me of the crashes I'd get with AOSP roms on my S3 which shocked me. So far no crash though. TBF, I think that the roots for the TMO work for us as well, however I haven't tried yet either as I'm also waiting for confirmation hehe. :good:
BTW has anyone gotten the unlock for the M919's to work on M919V's? When I dial the code in, it doesnt want to accept it.

I suppose I'll get things rolling a little bit.
1) Root
The motochopper method works. Tested it myself. Even on the newest M919VVLUAMDJ.
Link here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2258633
2) Sim Unlock
Again tested by me, works flawlessly even after flashing stock rom again.
Link here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2285431
3) Recovery
Not tested by me, but others have had success installing TWRP.
Link here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2263947
4) Stock
I flashed stock ROM with Odin after rooting to return back to stock. Everything is just how it is supposed to be.
Let's get going!
Thanks dj_aj, for root we don't need to go back to old firmware ?
I can confirmed I followed yesterday the method posted in the main Galaxy S4 Genreal forum(not T-mobile one) by looking at your links it look like same steps, and my videotron is unlocked I tried Telus sim of a friend it is working http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2282683
For me the only important reason why I want to root and install a custom ROM is to have Pdroid as Apps now days ask for crazy permissions and I want to block that. Is there any Stock Base ROM that include Pdroid or OpenPdroid ? Because otherwise my phone is ultra fast and smooth no need of crazy flashing like I use to do before with my LG lol
Is there anyway to enable LTE on this model? My phone tends to jump to the Rogers partner network every now and then and the data is terribly slow on Rogers 3G compared to Videotrons 4G. Thanks.

Open the phone dialer and press *#2263#.
Then select LTE Band Preference & then LTE All. This will force your phone to only connect to LTE.
To revert back chose Automatic from the service mode.

No that is not necessary. The new firmware is still rootable with motochopper.
Ever since I installed the firmaware update 2 days ago my batter life has tanked. Anyone else having this problem? (noob warning) Is it possible to revert to the previous version (non-rooted device)?

Could you elaborate on how much the battery life has really tanked? Is it down to just a few hours? And how less is it compared to the previous times?
I ask only because even though I initially thought that my battery was draining much quickly on this new firmware, it isn't really so. I'm getting about the same battery life.
Also, at this moment there is no way to downgrade to the previous firmware. The reason being the only stock firmware available to be flashed is the latest one.

You are welcome and no, I did not install any ROMs or custom recoveries. I like the stock touchwiz roms and generally only root to get rid of bloatware & do some minor tweaks.
I assume that all custom roms for the t-mobile sgh-m919 should work on our sgh-m919v variants. But, I have no expertise in this area & if anybody knows more can correct me.
I've updated the main post with links people have posted on here just for good reference. I hope that's okay with the original posters.
Just to confirm that i just rooted my videotron S4 with the link in OP . No need to roll back firmware worked perfectly with latest . Dont forget to turn on unlocked screen as you will be asked to allow root on your phone.

So I dont think its the firmware. Forgive the noobiness. Here's what happened: for two weeks since I bought the phone I have been following the same usage pattern every weekday - full charge with phone off at night, turn on at 8am, an hour of radio streaming and some browsing, gmail syncing sms and sporadic short browsing, repeat hour of streaming/browsing on commute home, some browsing on wifi in the evening. I have all smart features disabled and only syncing my gmail and calendar all in the effort to conserve bbattery.NEway this process would take my battery to about 20% by 11pm. Then last week for 2 consecutive days my battery life plummeted during the day to the point where it was 100% drained by 6pm. I didnt consider whether I had done anything differently on those days but now I know. I tried to send pictures through gmail over the network. With each pic weighing I at approx 3mb gmail was working to send them for hours while draining my battery. It just so happened that this took plafe the day after I installed the upgrade. Lesson here for me is wait for wifi to email pics taken by the fantastic camera on this phone.e
I come from the HTC Droid DNA forum and am now switched to G2.

Bump.
What I've noticed is this;
I guess I have a d80210a, because that's what it says in bootloader text/info at the bottom...
If I Flash a version of a Rom that might be based on a "b" or "c" version, when I try to use LG R&D Flashtool to revert to genuine stock the prices will fail at approximately 49%. Then I can reboot and the already installed Rom will have survived the failed Flash attempt.
One thing this might tell me is that the specifics of the hardware and the current running software (Rom) is checked some time during LG R&D Flashtool process.
So, the versions at hand, a b and c might be connected to hw somehow and this won't matter (it haven't mattered for at least) until you try to revert pure stock.
Just my two cents of thoughts...

Hmm, tried this one on LG GPad 8.3 KK 4.4.2, didn't work sadly, it may be that I only have a VM of Windows and there's an issue with mapping COMx to ttyx in VirtualBox that I'm not at all sure how to overcome. Adb finds the device, so it's at least communicating, but when it's time to run the exploit it just stops on the download screen. If anyone knows a good way to figure out which port is "diag" on a linux box (it's easy to *map* it, just difficult to know *what* to map) please do share. I've been searching high and low for a few days, and have learned a lot, just not what I need lol. I'd rather not do a hard install of Windows if I can avoid it, but I'm fresh out of ideas. I was thinking it might be that the software updated to VK70011A from VK700, but judging from the post above this one, that's unlikely(hence the edit). Not giving up just yet, but *any* input would be greatly appreciated.

I rooted with 5.0.2 and DP-Tools. My virus scanner alarmed me, but I guess/hope it is not a real virus.
I do not have LTE, but the DP-Tools is for LG-Devices in general.
Only missing thing is xposed framwork (doesn't run in lollipop)...i would love to remove softkeys in chrome while browsing.
I have yet to get this to work on my VZW 10.1. It hangs during the download screen portion. Any thoughts would be helpful.

Interesting. I have a 4G VK700 I just got and Kingroot works fine. There is no reason to swith superuser apps because kingroot provides plenty of features and there's nothing I have been unable to do. I put in T-Mobile APN settings and my 4g signal was on and conected after reboot. I will post my sofware version and kingroot version. I don't know why you would install an update unless it is needed to run something you have been unable to run.
Just FYI most updates these days simply lock you out from or make root more difficult to get. and they often cause hardware issues regardless of wether it is rooted or not.
now that we have a working kernel for our device, what roms are we able to flash with out kernel and have good results?
Will regular S6 roms work or will we have to stick to edge only? I dont mind about losing the edge function too much.

now that we have a working kernel for our device, what roms are we able to flash with out kernel and have good results?
Will regular S6 roms work or will we have to stick to edge only? I dont mind about losing the edge function too much.

We had a kernel for a while lol....... You could regular s6 roms but u will lose all the edge functions.... international roms still don't work,
Nothing catches my eye more than a KT kernel though. Thanks for the suggestion of regular s6 roms.
You said international roms won't work, what does that include? Does Canadian versions work on our device?

I tried tmobile S6 rom which is XtreStoLite Pure Edition 1.0c with our custom kernel.....and is not working...(on full wipe)
I mean is working but when you switch screen OFF you can't switch ON back...
(PS screen is flashing looks like white/black colors)
So what do you mean we can flash other roms?
Come guys post links !
What recovery did you use? There's a user in the 5.1.1 rom thread who has had success using v2 TWRP in the same the ad. Really hope your wrong or using an old recovery, because I was looking forward to flashing that rom.

v2 recovery of cause.
I flashed stock rom via odin, flashed latest recovery via odin (v2 twrp)
Boot up the phone. After that restarted to recovery, full wiped, flashed that rom, flashes kernel.
Restarted. It's working until u will switch screen off.

I'm running that rom on my T-Mobile Edge with no issues, not sure what you could have done wrong.

Did u flashed on 5.1.1? Or on 5.0.2 ?
While on 5.0.2 would be the safest way to go, would be my best assumption, though I've tried neither yet. If you flashed while on 5.1.1, might be worth trying over 5.0.2 instead of waiting for others to reply and sitting idly! Just my $.02. :good:

Is not gonna work with 5.0.2....
Tested
Huh... So you haven't done over top of 5.1.1, then, I re-assume? Wouldn't have ever imagined that first... Might be worth trying 5.1.1, then if it doesn't work, we'll have to wait for the others. Hope you get it working, bud! :highfive:

5.0.2, i don't think they even have a 5.1.1 version of that rom.
I have noticed that in the absence of Cm and AOSP based ROM development there doesn't seem to be a huge difference in many of the ROM developed here.....
Has anyone any input on the best Rom for AT&T or the ROM that atleast mentions AT&T? I'm not sure that it really matters but it seems that most of the development mentions various carriers but almost never mentions AT&T

You're not going to find one as AT&T isn't carrying the phone. The US unlocked is it.
I've been using LeeDroid on AT&T and it's worked well so far. I'm gong to give Venom a shot when they put out the full rom with systemless root

I guess I didn't even think about AT&T not carrying...... I bought from HTC
I've used both LD and Venom, not sure I could tell a huge difference
Thanks

Probably the best rom for ATT is going to be BadBoyz as it is based on the US unlocked rom. With any of the roms based on WWE (401) I don't think call forwarding or VOLTE works right now.

You may be very right --- in the last 24 hrs I have done fresh installs of both LD and Viper and both were acting strangely -- with the LD install most recently this AM having my phone go to H+ and wouldn't go back to LTE for some reason
May have to go to BadBoyz

I'm not sure about the LTE issue. You should definitely get LTE on the international roms.

I've been on LeeDROID as well.. no issues. The 4G+ icon is enabled by default for LTE. You can go into the tweaks app and change it. Apparently the international market uses the 4G icon for LTE but rest assured the LTE is working. [emoji106]

If you are planning on using Viper10, make sure you select US Unlocked during Aroma.
I've had LTE signal all the time and VoLTE also works fine on AT&T.

i have tried all the roms here. ice rom was great and i think it gave me the best battery life. leedroid was good also. badboys was also a good rom. but im a viper fan and cant live without the tweaks they offer. i never really had a problem with any of them. they are all solid.

This is common because the signal mapping rules are different from EU and US builds. You have to make some changes to the customize/ACC/default.xml to get the proper signal mapping.
It shouldn't actually be HSPDA even though the it's saying it is. Your phone has the proper firmware and radio so it's processing the network properly but displaying it differently as the rules tell it how to interpret the signal.

Yeah it's been a comedy of errors for me in the last 48
I started out with LD ROM and then dirty flashed Viper when I first got the phone. Almost immediately noticed some marginal reception issues so I flashed the latest firmware. Stayed on dirty flashes
Then yesterday got my extSD reformatted took exFat so decided to try some clean flashes
Kinda had issues with reception after that..... Flashing the latest builds of LD and Viper. I saw some T-Mobile user post an LTE speed of 50mb down while I was struggling to get 1 or 2 at the most. Then had issues of phone switching to H+ and wouldn't go to LTE. Took an hour to update google maps!
Then today installed Elemental kernel and put the script in the su folder and lost signal all together.... Apparently a known issue on LD
Just been a strange couple days

Attached is the stock system/customize/ from the 1.53.617.5 build. You can flash this in recovery and it should fix all that. Just in case, make a backup of your system/customize folder (create a copy of the zip, replace my version with your stock and rename the zip, then you'll have a test zip and an OEM zip just in case).

Thank you
I will try this
I let out one other thing
In an effort to fix my list signal ( that was due to my ghost pepper script not being done properly _ I had not followed the OP correctly and the permissive script wasn't executing), I tried to change Fast Dormancy switching using LD Tweaks and my device just locked up. Wonder if this is all part of the same thing, or is all due to the scripting issue?
Which Rom are you running with US device?

FastDormancy is a build.prop setting. The problem for you is the euro builds don't have the proper provisioning XMLs and .prop's to properly work on the US networks.

Stock 1.53.617.5. I already cleaned out the logging and chunda from the ROM. The only change I'll make is a deodex version when I get time to deodex the base ROM. None of the custom ROMs currently add any value IMO for US. Don't get me wrong, doesn't mean they're bad, but we have only 1 US custom ROM (BadBoyz) and it's not what I'd run.

I would tend to agree --- for some reason the little thing that I enjoy the most is the ability to alter Quick Settings tiles and more specifically I really like have a GPS (On and Off) switch in the quick settings. I even tried xposed and GravityBox for a brief period of time since none of the Custom Roms really offer allow the Quick Settings alteration like I'd like (except maybe ? Viper).
How did you "clean out the logging and chunda" from your base ROM? and is there a flashable zip for the stock ROM yet?? I'm not trying to get spoon fed -- I'm just curious , because I almost always learn something when I ask about methods , like this
Thanks

I use xposed and MM GravityBox to modify my quicksettings the way I like. It works good enough to get by.

I use TWRP to go into the system folder and delete:
app/Smith
app/QXDM2SD
app/instagram-stub
app/messenger-stub
app/CalendarGoogle (google app)
app/Chrome (google app)
app/Drive (google app)
app/facebook-stub
app/gmail (google app)
app/Music2 (google app)
app/PlayAutoInstallConfig-stub
app/HTCLogLevel
app/Videos (google app)
Priv-app/Photos (google app)
Priv-app/DemoFLOPackageInstaller
Priv-app/NeroHTCInstaller
Priv-app/Plurk
Priv-app/AndroidHtcSync
Then I reinstall the google apps I want from the playstore for a cleaner install to data instead of system. With an ODEX system it's a bit messy IMO with updates.
I'm not concerned with OTA updates so I'm not worried about modifying the system folders. We'll get updates from the community anyway so it's ok to clean these out.

Not a flashable ROM but there are base/stock TWRP backups of the system you can flash. Let me see if I can pull mine and I'll try to host it for you as it's already cleaned out, has HTCFileExplorer installed etc.
Hey I would love it if you were able to host yours in some way....
Probably a pain in the butt only if you have time
