CustomROM Tweaking [6.0.x] - LG Optimus G (International)

Hi there,
i tested all the latest 6.0.x ROMs in Developers Thread and found mordesku's [GEEHRC][6.0.1_r43][OFFICIAL] Resurrection Remix M v5.6.9 [2016-05-23] most suitable for my needs.
So far i'm really pleased with the ROM. After applying the Sensor Fix ti's working really nice'n'smooth!
Now i got some little Questions:
1. On home screen > menu button > gear wheel on the right opens the startscreen settings just as the three dots (" .·. ") above it, is that a bug? on all other ROMs i used it opens the android settings. is that a bug? can i fix it?
2. in the android 5 ROM i used before, there were many settings for "time" display on status bar. is that easily patchable to this ROM? i just want to see seconds on status bar. how do i achieve it? (by searching i found something about LGG2 Deodexed Stock LGSystemUI.apk but i am not sure if it is applicable to optimus G)
3. LGOG stock ROM has inbuild am/fm radio function which isnt present in CustomROMs 6.0.x, can this readded in any easy way.
Thanks alot for your time and answers!
sorry if these are dumb questions/wrong subforum or anything, i'm not that familiar with android dev/ xda forum.
greetings, Cecilium

[Q] Quick Settings edit

hi,
quick question: how to edit the quick settings in the drop-down menu (notification tray) in Gingerbread Sense ROMs ? (im using insertcoin)
i want to know ! how to do ?
Maybe this Thread helps you
well unfortunatetly no answer there, just an idea to decompile an .apk and suit it to my needs.
still, anyone ?
Its so simple in MIUI Rom... their is an option in settings/Personal/ Custom Status Bar..
Incase you desperately want the setting, you can try MIUI ;-)
Well it's a difference if you did the thing yourself or if you want to change a HTC based feature without big hacks. I think it's pretty much impossible.
But if there is a solution, let me know - 2G/3G is missing
it is not impossible, in stock you get only a few quick settings, in custom roms (rcmixs, insertcoin) devs extended it - i want to know how, so i can remove the unneeded shortcuts.
robocik: not that easy, you should take a modded systemui.apk and a stock one, decode both with apktool and diff them, that way you will see how it is maked and will be easier for you to modify it.
this is the method, have not tried it yet though.
if any of you intrested guys tries to do this, i really apprecieate your feedback here thx.
and big thanks to robo, not only for all the amazing job he is doing for our community, but also for responding to my Q
I have rooted Desire Z with Virtuous Sence v2 Rom.
Go to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1071118
and download Extra QuickSettings 0.2
http://www.multiupload.com/W7GXFQJN6R
Extract SystemUI.apk from zip file.
I used DroidExplorer to replace original : system/app/SystemUI.apk
with the downloaded one and have ne quick settings menu.
Is there any way to change "quick settings" with rooting?
If by "change" you mean "add/remove features in the settings list", yes, there is. Check out this thread.

[Q] Question about notification bar/custom rom setup

First, sorry if this should be somewhere else, I tried to reply to a couple threads that related to this but was told that I was not allowed to do so.
Okay, I have been trying to fix this for a few days now to no avail. I have a T-Mobile Galaxy Note 2. When I got the phone, I rooted it, left the stock rom (because I want full s-pen functionality; none of the custom roms I tried provided full support), and flashed a couple jb files to change the battery icon/center clock/toggles/remove brightness bar, etc.). Everything worked fine.
A few days ago I decided to upgrade the firmware to have the multi-window support. I wanted to flash the jb files again to customize the notification bar toggles, battery icon, etc. However, after doing so, I get a system ui has stopped error message and I have no notification bar whatsoever. I tried some of the other jb files with the same result. The only other customizations I can find are supported by Android 4.1.2; however, I am at 4.1.1. I have looked endlessly for a way to go up to 4.1.2 or 4.2 but the only options I see for this upgrade are supported in India/Europe/etc. I cannot find a version to upgrade and stay with a stock rom. I have tried cyanogen which works for the Android update; however, does not fully support the s-pen. So, I'm stuck.
I definitely want to be able to:
have multi-window feature
have full s- pen support
customize the notification bar. (change color, center clock, circle battery icon with percentage in center, remove brightness slider, remove line underneath each toggle button, remove samsung clear notification button - basically the features that the JB themes provided)
keep root access
Not necessary, but would also like to upgrade anything above Android 4.1.1. I also like all of the customizations that cyanogen 10.1 offers; however, the s-pen support is a must.
If someone could help me I would be incredibly appreciative. I would like to know what to flash or what files work. I have used romkitchen before to customize an older phone, but can't find anything like that to keep the features I want. I would be willing to pay/donate if these files don't currently exist and someone would like to offer to make them for me to flash.:fingers-crossed:

[F.A.Q][All 4.4.x ROMS]

Hello.
This is a Q&A or F.A.Q Thread for all 4.4.x ROMS.
First of all note that for flashing any 4.4.x ROM, you have to have a 4.2.2 TW ROM or a stock 4.2.2 ROM or if you have already flashed any 4.4.x ROM, that will be it.

Note:
1) Don't ask for help on roms which are in alpha or beta stage. Developers will solve them.
2) Note that most Samsung stock apps will not work on these roms.
3) Don't ask about ETA's of dual sim. Till date only cm-11.0 has implemented dual sim.

CM-11.0 FAQ
How do I enable Dual SIM?
Starting from the 20140309 release, Dual SIM support is available on an experimental basis. To enable or disable, run the following command from adb or terminal emulator and then reboot. SIM Settings can then be found in Settings -> Multi Sim Settings.
Enable:
Code:
su
setprop persist.radio.multisim.config dsds
Disable:
Code:
su
setprop persist.radio.multisim.config none
Note that Dual SIM mode currently has the following limitations:
Both SIMs are always enabled (no way to disable one SIM)
"Receive incoming call while data is enabled" is always enabled
The QuickSettings tile will display the status for the currently selected SIM for data
There is no arrow activity indicator in the status bar.
Changing 2G/3G network mode using the QuickSettings toggle is not supported, only do it from Settings.
Changing 2G/3G mode in Settings may show too many options if the language used is not English. If more than 3 options is shown, only use the 3 top options (which will be WCDMA only/GSM only/WCDMA preferred regardless of the actual label shown).
3G may not work properly if Dual SIM mode is enabled with only 1 SIM inserted
Cannot set different ringtone for each SIM
Baseband version not displayed in Settings
What are incremental/delta updates?
Delta updates allow updating from one version to another downloading only the difference rather than the full ROM, for those on limited bandwidth. They are named like "cm-11-20131215_to_20131216_delta-UNOFFICIAL-i9082.zip" which means that it can be used to update from 20131215 to 20131216 (simply flash it in recovery like any other update). Delta updates will not work if you have installed custom kernels or other system modifications, including editing build.prop. In those cases, downloading the full update is recommended.
Can you include Feature X into your ROM?
No. This ROM will have CyanogenMod's feature set.
Can you include S-Note/S-Planner/MultiWindow/Insert Samsung App Here?
No. This is an AOSP ROM and cannot have TouchWiz applications.
Can you include call recording?
No. CyanogenMod does not include call recording to avoid potential legal issues.
Can you add Feature X to the stock ROM?
No. I don't work on stock ROMs.
What kernel does this ROM use?
A slightly modified version of the stock kernel, the source code is linked above.
I've heard that Broadcom doesn't release source, how can you make this ROM?
Contrary to the popular belief, userspace driver source code is not always required to make an AOSP-based ROM as long as the proprietary binaries shipped with the device does not modify the API too heavily (or is from a very different version of Android). Instead of modifying the source code of the drivers, the Android source code was adapted to be able to use the proprietary binaries.
Can I use your ROM as a base?
http://source.android.com/source/licenses.html
Most of Android/CyanogenMod is licensed under the Apache License with other small parts licensed under other open-source licenses. Which means that you may modify and redistribute without asking for permission as long as the proper credits is given and it is not misappropriated as being the official CyanogenMod. (In other words, you must say that it is based on pawitp's unofficial CyanogenMod, but is not related to CyanogenMod in any other way.)
Will you make this official CM?
Due to the amount of work and commitment involved, I am not planning to make an official CM port.
Can contacts be saved to phone/SIM?
No. It is not supported in AOSP-based ROMs.
Can I mirror your ROM?
You're free to, but I will not list it in this post.
Is overclock (OC) available?
Since 20140101 build, 1.3 GHz OC is available in Settings -> Performance -> Processor (enable developer mode first). Higher frequencies are not enabled since benchmark does not show additional benefit.
Will feature X from a previous version of CM be implemented?
I don't know, probably will be, eventually. I don't really involve myself in the feature-set side of CM.

ProBam KK F.A.Q
when probam in black turn on , the systemui make force close
try to switch off black ui then restart and try enable it again
after dirty flash the device hangs and systemui make force close
you need to make wipe all and clean cache and make fresh install in this case
when try video recoding the device freeze or slow down
screen video record with ondemand or pegasusq governors u will have a laggy recorded video. If you try with performance governor from performance in settings , then the video will be a lot smoother.
Camera crashing some times and not works anymore "camera not connected"
the rom included an small application "camera restart" you can use it for fix this issue
titanium recovery not restore my applications
For those who cannot find their previous files, because CM based rom will target the sdcard storage to use root/0/ directory.
So normally all the files besides the root/0/ directory will not be shown on the file explorer.
To solve this, you will need a file browser that has ROOT capability, eg. Root Explorer
then go to mnt/shell/emulated/ all your file should be here.
Now move all the files into mnt/shell/emulated/0/ folder.
Should solve the problem.
Privacy guard IS working?
after enabling privacy guard in security settings
you have to switch to settings>apps and then choose to enable or disable each app individually.
I'm sure nobody would want to tick every single app, that would almost be the same as enabling airplane mode.

PACman FAQ​
PIE FAQ
Q. What is PIE?
A. PIE is a new way to interact with your notifications. It provides easy gesture based interaction with all your system information without taking up valuable screen space. PIE is what you see in this image.
Q. How do I access Pie?
A. Swipe your finger from the pie gravity edge (default is the bottom) toward the center of your screen. While keeping your finger on the screen, drag your finger to the desired button and release to click.
Q. My PIE doesn't look like the ones in the screenshots. I don't see the Clock or notifications.
A. Notifications work either through the status bar or PIE. If the status bar is enabled, PIE reverts to just the softkeys. To enable the full PIE experience, enable Expanded Desktop by going to Settings -> System -> Power Menu -> Expanded Desktop (Status bar hidden). Access the power menu and turn Expanded Desktop on.
Q. How do I change PIE colors?
A. Go to Settings -> Hybrid Properties -> Interface and change the Navigation bar color.
Q. Buttons or keyboard rows near the edge of my screen are nonresponsive.
A. PIE's trigger area overlay is covering the edge of your screen. Change either the Trigger Area or Pie Gravity in Settings -> System -> PIE Settings.
Q. I don't like PIE, how do I turn it off?
A. To disable PIE set Trigger Area to None in Settings -> System -> Pie Settings. Remember to disable Expanded Desktop to turn status bar on again.
ROM FAQ
Q.Do I need to do a full wipe before installing this ROM?
A. Unless coming from a previous version of PACman it is highly recommended to do a full wipe before installing. This includes coming from ParanoidAndroid ROMs.
Q.What do the settings in Hybrid Properties do?
A. ParanoidAndroid has an extensive guide to the settings at this thread: [GUIDE][PARANOIDANDROID] A Complete Compendium on ParanoidPreferences [PA-Settings] Please do not post questions related to PA Settings in this thread, they are not ROM specific and all we'll do is point you to that thread.
Q.How do I turn on the Navigation Bar??
A.To enable the NavBar open Hybrid Properties, swipe the screen to the right to peek through to the menu.
Select Interface, now set your desired NavBar size with the slider.
Q.Something isn't working. What do I do?
A. First, make sure you are running the latest stable version. That should solve half the problems. If it persists, backup data using Titanium and do a full wipe reinstall. If the problem persists, report what it is and what triggers it so the dev can duplicate it.

[Request] Searching for Dev with some Free time!

Hello everybody. Firstly i would like to appologize if i made this thread in wrong forum place. So i tried absolutely all ROMs for maguro and i personally think that aosp-based kitkat roms are better than cm11-based kitkat roms. But somehow i really love stock-look of kitkat ROM. I really want to use KitKat (4.4.2, not 4.4.3!) on my phone but without some features i cannot use any of current ROMs as daily ones. So i would like to ask some dev who got some free time to add some features to THIS ROM (the original thread is THIS ONE - v2 of this ROM (4.4.2 AOSP) ). Here is what features i would like to see and use in this 4.4.2 AOSP rom:
1. Long press back button to kill app (500 ms duration time of holding back button);
2. Vibration feedback on pressing/holding QuickTiles
3. 2G/3G QuickTile
4. One click Data/WiFi/Bluetooth Tile to turn ON/OFF and holding to open settings of this tile
5. Navigation ring shortcuts (afaik there are 3 shortcuts)
6. Double-tap to sleep
Only six things. No 3rd party launchers or any other add-ons. So i hope somebody will check this thread and give me an answer. Thank you in advance and have a nice day
I really doubt anyone will make a special ROM for you. Sorry.
So you have 2 possibilities:
1. Learn how to build ROM, and add what you want to it.
2. Install Shiny ROM, xposed framework and Gravitybox and have AOSP based ROM with customization (a lot of it, but all you need are included)

Added to the OnePlus 5 Index Thread here.
Great job dude ..it's great so far and everything is working fine only thing is I can't seem to find the backlight settings for hardware buttons
Nice little rom, was wondering when someone would build Bliss for the OP5.
Couple of things I was wondering @quake73 :
I don't see an option in the battery section to remove the battery icon, I use the battery bar so having both is a bit overkill, am I missing it, didn't see it in the system icons section either?
There's a "Show percentage" option in the battery section which never seems to be enabled, no matter what style you choose?
Don't see the "one handed" option in Bliss, that is in a couple of other roms, when you are choosing button options, I presume that's cos it just isn't in Bliss?
Getting a problem with Nova Launcher, it's not loading my widgets, just shows "problem loading widget", they've been fine on other roms but I am in the beta channel for Nova so I'll investigate that first.
Which camera app does it use? Thanks
So, yeah, still getting the widget error on Nova launcher's release ring, gonna try Havoc again and see if it's this rom.
