[Request] Lg Messaging app - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can anyone be so kind as to upload the lg messaging apk and odex files? I have the Verizon version of the g2 and they changed the messaging app.

I was, but I'm unable to find them. Do you know what they're called? I gave someone else the phone apk's which were named with LG at the front.
VZW LG G2

I had that problem on stock before the most recent Youtube update, which fixed it. I think everyone did.
I'm not running baconbits though so not sure about that specifically.

Disable over the air updates.

Has anybody found an easy way to disable over the air updates for the Verizon LG G2? I believe I remember from a previous phone there was an application we could freeze to prevent updates so it wouldn't break root. Does anyone know how to do that on this phone?

you can disable "softwware update" using titanium backup or other apps with root access, I use root uninstall
Ok. That's easy enough. I didn't realize OTA was called that. With the motto x it was some obscure name. Thank you.

[REQ] Stock "LG" generic Boot animation & sounds

Hey guys, I have searched and searched, Pulled down 2 different international system dumps but they all seem to have custom carrier
Boot animations.
Anyone know where I can find a clean unlocked/international system dump or stock generic LG logo boot animations?
Cheers!
Finally found a Good unlocked/international dump.
Heres the Stock Generic LG boot animation, it looks great!
https://db.tt/Dqo8MGkt
Would you please to up load the shutdown animation file also.
Thanks
Sent from my LG-D801 using xda app-developers app
Thanks, love the new look (for the next few days anyway). For the boot sound I took the Life is Good notification sound from the media\audio\notifications folder, copied it to the media\audio\ui folder and renamed it PowerOn.ogg. Worked like a charm. Figure this is what LG would probably use anyway. I'll play the LG fanboy for a bit.

Hey Guys, sorry for taking so long to respond to the thread.
for some reason the Shutdown animation does not work,
I dont know if this is SUPPOSED to be this way on the international/unlocked versions or not but all i get
is the "your device is shutting down" box..
I will post up the power on sound. on the int/unlocked version system dump I have, there wasnt any poweroff.ogg file.
so I just copied and renamed the Lg sound so it plays on shutdown as well,
Shut down ani

How do you get the sound to work on the boot animation for the Verizon phone?

To answer the question at hand, all I did was rename the existing file and copy the above files to system\media\audio\ui. I used Root Browser because I seem to be having issues using the root functions of es file explorer.
On a related note, I heard the above startup tones at the end of an att commercial that had nothing to do with lg, so the search continues for generic lg boot tones.
And a note on the shutdown animation. I'm pretty sure it works, it is just obstructed by the powering down message. The animation that comes on the Verizon model is identical to the one included above.

Hey there your absolutely right those ARE att sounds doh! I just saw the same commercial.
I sound the real lg logo sound on zedge but cant find an app to convert it to .ogg

Just copy and rename,powerOff for it as the power off sound

Haven't tried the one you uploaded, I found something else that works too. I got the zedge app and found the "New LG Tone" notification and downloaded it. Tried converting it to ogg but it wouldn't play (every other ogg file in the media folder would play) so I just renamed the mp3 to ogg, put it in the same folder, rebooted and... success! Is this the same tone you found?

[Q] Hangouts MMS not working

The 12/10 hangout app still won't send MMS messages. I'm on Sprint, not rooted. Anyone else still having this issue?
It's love to use hangouts for all my messages, but I get no love from Google.

Yes, share more. Am I supposed to do something with it?
Also, it sometimes switches from Wi-Fi to 3g when I try to send an mms. I have no idea why. Stock messaging app works fine.

Open app as archive, go into res, xml, delete apns.xml, reinstall. Works for me on Verizon. Full MMS/ group. Damn Hangouts and its custom xml.
It is in /data.

I hate to be dense, but how do I open it as archive?
Sent from my Sprint LG G2.
Z archive through a file explorer
The issue is with app not the phone and BTW it was fixed in latest update.

It's actually not fixed on Sprint with the latest update. MMS doesn't work still and you can't change apn within the app itself.

Unfortunately it didn't fix the Sprint version mms issues. Come on Google!

Navigated to it but do not show apns.xml in the res folder. Am I missing something?
Xml folder after res
I don't know what 'open app as archive' means. Please give some details for the n00b.
I'm not rooted, if that matters.

zArchive (Google play free) can open apks as "folders". Root doesn't matter if you get the apk link and edit before install. Overwrite.

Thanks. I did it, but still no go on Sprint. That just causes it to force close.

Same with the last guy. No idea. :/
And still no go for mms on 12/12 update. Come on Google, you have got to be kidding me. I can download 10 apps from the play store in 1 minute that can do this.

Had anyone been able to get this to work on Sprint?

Have you given the one that comes preinstalled on the LG G2 a go?
I might have uninstalled it way back when I got the phone and rooted it

I'd give it a go because if the stock app that comes with the LG G2 doesn't work and no other apps worked then for sure you'd probably have defective IR sensor
Where would I get it, I can't find the original app any store
