I rooted and flashed my sprint s4 with gummy ROM android 4.4 kitkat. First few weeks it was flawless and everything worked perfectly fine. Now my data is hardly working. Sometimes (very rarely) it might be working but for the most part nothing. It shows all bars enabling me to make calls and text but no data. Id appreciate it if anyone can give me some advice or a solution to the problem. Thanks
Try flashing a TW ROM and update prl and profile. Then go back to gummy

Just returned the D850 I had because I could never get the quick remote to function correctly like my G2 and the screen was subpar in all respects minus the resolution. Anyway I like my G2 better except for the inability to run ROMs other than stock. Every ROM I flash I can't get LTE and can't send a text but can revieve them. I've flashed lots of times back and forth with the factory tots and all is fine. Even flash stock rooted kk ROMs in twrp and it's good. Flask CM11 or the G3 and others and it's always the same deal. I have tried flashing the kk modem and entering in other APNs other than the ATT Phone one that works with the ATT ROM no dice. When I search for mobile operators I never see LTE. On the G3 rom I have tried deleting the LTE apks and modding the build prop as suggested. I just can't figure this out. TIA for any help

Hi,
I recently attempted and failed to rom my vs980.
I installed sprint rom but was unable to get any signal and no screen rotation. I am using my vs980 in the uk on three mobile.
I then tried cloud's g3 rom and again no signal and all sorts of errors.
After half a day of messing i managed to recover to stock 4.42 and have a working g2 once again.
Im quite keen to rom my g2 but unsure if it is global mode that isnt working on roms? Is anyone using a vs980 in another part of the world? Great phone just want to make more use of it.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Reuben

Its a verizon phone, meaning you have to use a rom that's for the vs980, I'm using my vs980 from verizon on straight talk in NY right now.

enter your imei here http://lg-firmware-rom.com/
Both custom roms were supposed to be suitable for the vs980.
Just upon trying no good, i have done the imei checker and i am currently on the latest rom. Good link tho as i am unable to update ota from here on a different network, this should keep me upto date with verizon roms.
If i cant get a custom rom working is there a way to remove all the vewrizon bloatware?

yes !
First of all I'd like to thank the following forum members for their contributions:
@Zackptg5 and @megaghostgamer for their basic steps
@xdabbeb for his bootstack
Major thanks to @Cloudyfa for his amazing ports!
I've compiled their steps into a very user friendly guide with all downloads in one place.
I recommend TWRP for the procedure. Any version 2.7.0.0 or above should do.
First of all, you need these files:
Dorimanx 3.9.2 kernel vs980 (Make sure you download the kernel for the VS980)
Aroma Patch Fix
CloudyG2 3.3
xdabbeb's vs980 39a bootstack
Then, follow the steps carefully. I am not responsible if this didn't work for you as it did for me.
Backing up is recommended, nandroid or data backups.
Boot your phone into TWRP. (Recommended method is going to recovery after turning off the device)
Wipe everything except internal storage.
Flash Xdabebbeb's VS980 39A bootstack.
Reboot the device into recovery (there should be an option for this in the reboot section of TWRP).
Flash CloudyG2 3.3 and make sure you select your variant as VS980. Make sure you uncheck the reboot option at the end of the installation.
Flash the Aroma Patch Fix zip, and select your variant as VS980. Make sure you uncheck the reboot option at the end of the installation.
Flash the VS980 39A bootstack once more.
Flash the Dorimanx 3.9.2 kernel zip.
Wipe cache/dalvik cache.
Reboot the device to system.
Notes:
First boot usually takes awhile. The pulsing LED will show up for a long time with the LG Logo.
Mobile Data does not work unless you enable data roaming.
Please hit that thanks button if this guide helped any of you! Any questions, just post down below.
I have followed everything as it has been mentioned in the guide.
When i rebooted the system in the end, LG logo appeared for a second and then black screen with [880] Fastboot mode started.
now what should i do ? its just stuck here.

You flashed the kernel for the wrong variant. Flash the one for the vs980, its towards to bottom of the download page. You can still boot into recovery by following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2534981

Easy mistake to make (I did that too once). It'll say you're roaming, but that's just a weird bug. Go into networks setting and enable data while roaming and it'll work fine. You're not actually roaming so you won't get charged for it.
Oh well. Added an extra precaution next to the download link.

Flash xdabbebs rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2715408
It is stock with some tweaks, g3 ported apps and such. If you still have these issues, it's likely a hardware issue
You mean I should not use cloudyG2 3.3?
But if it is hardware issue then why I was not facing it other ROMs?

Im saying that the hardware issue could have just developed and an easy way to test that is with flashing a stockish rom. If it's a software issue, than you'll have no problems with it. I've never had signal issues with Cloudys rom on my vs980

No i had signals issues before and in this room the issue seemed to have worsen but i think its okay .
but the real issue now is .. extremely extremely slow charging .. even tweaking the kernel with fast charging at 2000mAH.. its such a lazy charging .. you can imagine .. for more than 2.5 hours, the charging has just been moved from 12% to 34%.
not using at all .. only charging .. how to resolve this issue ??

Try uninstalling the apps installed with dormant kernel (color changed, synapse, dorimanx kernel settings) forget the names for them but you'll figure it out. Then flash xdabbebs stock kernel (permissive): http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-g2/development/vs98039a-stock-fw-t3051560
If the slow charge is still present, then it's likely a hardware issue. Sounds like you need a new phone with all of the problems you're having. Have you tried cleaning out the charging port with compressed air?

you probably are right that i might need a new phone but i had just got this one and charging was okay with kitkat based ROMS.. like i was using CloudyFlex before and no issue but only with this rom i had this issue. and I had not tried compressed air cleaning at all .. i think i must consider changing the kernel .. it might save the issue..

I'm thinking that the first install of the wrong kernel did some stuff.
Try backing up your stuff, using LG Tool to restore back to stock, and retry the procedure. I'm coming straight off of Resurrection Remix 5.1.1 and I've had no issues with this ROM. Data works without enabling Roaming too.

LG Tool doesnt take me back to stock.. i have to manually flash stock ROM for this ..
actually I had mentioned before, i was already facing severe signals issues and not to forget, GPS is also faulty.
so might be hardware issue that is continued in this ROM too.
But what has been added is .. extremely slow charging .. charging is totally dead.
Using Dorimanx Kernel v 4.6.
even enabled fast charging at 1800 but no effect at all ..

I thought my guide mentioned version 3.9.2..
Well if this ROM doesn't work out for you, stay on CloudyG2 2.2. It's the most stable ROM we have for our VZW G2 out there.

I think so its not working out well .. though i have loved it .. its interface and everything but i have faced so many issues and now i am observing videos are not being played at all ..even tried installing MX Player but same issue..
tonight i am going to flash debloated Stock lollipop cuz i want to use LP .. if it doesn't work out .. then i will revert back to CloudyFlex cuz that was working fine too ..
CloudyG2 and CloudyFlex.. are they the same or different .. i am sorry for my ignorance but these both roms were downloaded by one of my friend so I didn;t keep a check..
guys every time I put a rom aosp on my cell phone it just says emergency call and in the stock rom it reads it perfect

Go in cellular network change global to gsm/wcdma auto or any other gsm/wcdma option.

Just flash the correct modem/radio for you area at the recovery, I had the same issue with my G2 when I switched to a custom rom.
In my case it happened because my G2 was a D805 and I flashed a D802 rom, but I fixed it by doing as I said above.
thanks guys I will try

I am using crDroid-7.1.2-20171119-vs980-v3.8.3 too with no issue with TelenorPk or other provider's. I usually use xdabbeb_vs98039a_bootstack before flashing any rom even LineageOS 14.1, no issue so far. Never upgraded my twrp still using v2.8.6.3.
Try xdabbeb_vs98039a_bootstack, clean install (wipe all expect internal storage). Try wdcma only in network setting.

Got it sorted after my post, it was a simple issue of TWRP 3.2.1 not being compatible with any rom pre-dating itself, went back to TWRP 3.1.1 & everything worked well..
Thanks for the help
