Knock On and KitKat Roms? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How can I get Knock On or something similar if I use a 4.4 rom such as CM11 or PA? Just got my G2 D801 today. Is there a certain kernal or mod?

A lot of the KK roms (4.4.2) have these features already built in. I know for a fact that cm11 and PA have it where you can knock on and then you have to tap the status instead of just anywhere on the screen to knock off
I'm pretty sure it's a standard feature and only the newer ROM's that were just released don't have it yet

[Q] 4.1.2 on top of PA?

Can I install 4.1.2 on top of Paranoid Android's custom ROM? (Trinity kernel) The one thing I have noticed so far on PA is that the home screen still has no rotation which I know 4.1.2 fixed. Not a huge deal, but I am assuming that means PA is still based on the earlier JB version. Will it break anything if I manually update to the latest? I am new to tablets/rooting so I wanted to check before I tried it. (Almost bricked my tablet earlier today cause I had the wrong .zip for PA. Made me hesitant...)

[Q] TW 4.2.2 vs GE 4.3 (custom roms)

Hello,
Seems there are a lot of TW vs AOSP/AOKP/GE threads but what I'm asking is for a custom TW 4.2.2 rom such as Goldeneye, Infamous, etc... vs GE 4.3 what is everyone running as their DD?
After trying a lot of the TW roms with KT Kernel it seems that no matter how fast you make your TW rom, the GE 4.3 Rom just has the increased smoothness mitigating any smidgen of lag. I really want to run GE as my DD but am conflicted of losing TW camera. I know that in the Sprint roms forum someone is working on a port of TW camera but until then what is your thought process?
Is speed/smoothness your #1 feature regardless?
Personally, I'm running Goldeneye 4.0 w/ Ktoonsez Kernel 7/26/13 at the moment
I came from a Galaxy Nexus and always ran AOSP based roms. However, with the S4 I am only using TW roms because I like a lot of the touch wiz features. If there was a way to keep them (such as smart stay/scroll, air view, etc) I would probably go back to AOSP. Though I'll probably end up going back to AOSP when Key Lime Pie comes out because I won't be patient enough to wait for samsung to come out with their 5.0 update.

That is a great point, I think if Key Lime Pie came out and only came out as a GE rom, I would jump ship immediately.

That port isnt for the 4.3 GE rom...its for the 4.2.2 GE rom.
4.2.2 GE roms still has touchwiz frakeworks which allows touchwiz applications to be ported and installed. In the 4.3 GE rom, those frameworks no lomger exist....making porting a much harder task as you would nit only need to port the camera but also the required frameworks...something that I dont think has ever been done

Definitely agree with that. Sorry should have made it clear that I want some opinions based on never being a TW Camera port on GE roms.
My .02
I've had the S3, Note 2, and now the S4 and always rooted and custom ROMs. I always steered clear of the non TW ROMs for one reason, the camera was sub par. The 4.3 that was ported and recently removed (Per copyright issues) is what I'm on now, and it's hands down the best phone experience I've ever had. It's smooth, stable, simple and blazes the phone! Out of the box, the only change I had to make was to the APN to get AT&T LTE. You simply can't go wrong with this rom, even giving up the fancy schmancy gestures and such..

Are you sure about this? GE4.3 still has functioning S-View. Wouldn't S-View be dead (Like in CM) if the TW framework was not included?

aosp 24a ROMs

I tried Mahdi ROM and followed the directions to the tee did a complete clean install of ROM and flashed the r1 patch but the volumes are really low I even tried every sound booster out there even put one together myself but only boosted the volumes slightly I was wandering if anyone else is experiencing the same low volumes? see I work in a pretty noisy environment and I need the ringer to be pretty loud I've noticed the low volumes on all the aosp Roms I've tried. So for now I switched back to malladus ROM along with my sound booster which makes the volumes extremely loud. so in the low volume problem an aosp bug or is there a fix for it? And by the way I'm on the Verizon variant of the lg g2
I really love Mahdi ROM but just can't deal with the low volumes hopefully there's a fix for it
I'm currently running Carbonrom and I love it. For the 24a bootstack, bigshotrob22 has rebased the official Carbonrom releases and is posting them in the dev thread. The link to the post with the most recent version is below.

Hello, the ROM I recommend you use is CyanogenMod 11, I'm using this ROM right now on my LG G2, and I love the performance and numerous customizations you can do with it.[emoji4][emoji4][emoji4], what's your variant of the LG G2?
Sent From My LS980 Running CyanogenMod Using Tapatalk
G2 d802 32gb.
Heard a lot about CM. sound good, I think I will give it a try.
Thank you my friend.

No problem [emoji4], the knock on gesture will still exist on the LG G2 running CyanogenMod 11, you'll just have to knock on the status bar to lock your phone, and you can knock on your screen to turn your phone back on again, make sure you backup your Stock LG ROM using TWRP before you continue to install the ROM, and download the latest Gapps(Google Apps) for the Rom.[emoji4][emoji4]
Good Luck[emoji106][emoji106]

[DISCUSSION] KitKat ROMs for titan.

Hello everyone, I'm thinking of compiling some cool KitKat ROMs for titan (Mokee, Carbon, AICP, PAC, AOKP, etc). But I have a doubt. Would anyone even go for kitkat? Like we have mm ROMs, lp ROMs, would you flash KitKat? I personally would love to, as not all mm/lp ROMs deliver the best performance our device is capable of. And plus, KitKat can have more features than ANY lp/mm rom. So just a shout out to know how many people would love to have KitKat revived. If the number is desirable, I'll build some cool KitKat ROMs for titan

I tought once to port some KK ROMs for Titan, but I never had enough time to do it. So, if you're into KK, do it! I will (as well as many others that also likes KK) certainly try.

I never used any KK ROM, so what would be the advantages over marshmallow?
I really like kitkat roms but since my phone (XT1064) came with Android L, it has a different front camera which I think isn't supported in kitkat. I flashed CM11 and front camera wasn't working. So people with this same phone variant probably won't use kitkat roms for this reason. This might be something to take in count.

You rock man! I'd like to see, if it's possibile, an update of KK PA, because i loved that rom, but also every new kitkat rom would be awesome!
i prefer kitkat more than lolipop. its too stable more than lolipop .Yes lolipop has some new features but in stability and perfermance no one will take kitkat's place . i will wait for you new kitkat rom
Add me here too. Like to try a new kit-kat rom.
For me, if you can build something with AOSP base ill use it for sure, since i dont like CM base roms at all, but now im not sure how many AOSP based roms are for KK. But, as everyone is saying, you can go, i think some people will be happy testing them

The problem is that no one maintained AOSP KK for our device. LuK did Cm 11 but had to abandon it cause well he was doing cm 12.1 and AOSP 5.1.1.
Plus there is no layers support( I think) since layers was introduced in LP.
@Vidhanth Go for it. I would like to use KK again.

Yes ofc a kitkat ROM would be welcome, maybe slimkat based? but don't expect too many users(You can expect me, lol!) Also if you don't mind me asking, how about an updated 5.1.1 ROM? I don't like 6.0.1 romS much because of the touchbug. Any 5.1.1 rom would be cool
Sure!! I would definitely flash kk rom. Personally I love KitKat. I was thinking of flashing PA 4.6 B5 today.
Special request:- Could you port Nexus 5's Chroma Layers LP Rom? If possible
Sent from my Moto G 2014 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Yea, if you say kk roms have more features than lp and mm roms then yes.
+1 here
If you go back to a kit kat rom from an lp you need to do something with the bootloader or you just flash the rom?

Just flash the rom
If you could recreate the magic of Paranoid Android complete with Halo and Floating Windows (KK/JB), I'd be the first to download!
I would try it for sure. If it works fluently I'll maybe stay with it. MM ROMs still have some bugs.

Yes!:victory: I'm in!:highfive: If you make a rom, I'll flash it. You are the one who knows better, so you choose what's best for our G2 (CM, AOSP) Whatever you choose will be fine
