Google Edition - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone, I'm now using HTC One with Google Edition rom, and I ****ing love it. I'm switching to LG G2 but I really hate the ugly UI, is there any custom rom, or any way to convert it to Google Edition? Thank you.

The g2 has better hardware than the one, but aosp is not nearly as stable. I love my phone, but coming from a nexus, I sure miss stability.

In my country they sell only D802.. is that a problem?
Also, does anyone know what's the difference between the One's and the G2's speakers? I mean, I know the One's are way better, but as for the volume, which has the louder ones? And how louder are they?

D802 is supported too, no idea if the stability is any different but I wouldn't imagine it would be.
As for comparison against other phones for various stuff; no idea.

Knock on is okay but knock off can't be used on lockscreen and even in launcher you have to tap the status bar.(With nova launcher you can knock off by double tapping on home), but that still won't give you ability to knock off on lockscreen.

In Paranoid Android, you can use knock off on the lockscreen. It's been implemented since Beta 5, I think.

[Q] Rom with navigation bar mod

Hi, I'm looking for a ROM where you can tweak the navigation bar like in AOKP.
Unfortunately I tried last AOKP build but the battery life is horrible (even with franco's kernel).
So do you know any rom with this feature? (Or a flashable zip)
CM10.1 has it.
Where?

It isn't. It's a cherry pick.
It's CM 10.1 + Cherry Picks (Unapproved additions that will be added once approved by CM team). So basically u get features faster that are not yet approved because someone on the team didn't approve of it yet.
Thanks you guys, its perfect!
Should i use the stock kernel?
What do you use?
CM10 stock does have it, in the power menu options
I use Matr1x
Just flashed 20121211 eurosskank cm10.1 and I dont see the option...
Yeah, that is the main feature I am using AKOP for.
If there was a stock ROM with Nav bar button and size mod and status bar mod only, I would totally hit that up
Anyone know how?
looking for the rom that lets you add and rearrange the soft nav buttons. is codename android coming out for n4?

It's there. You have to flash jellybro which is a unofficial release with cherry picks. Check android development the thread is in there. You can flash that Rom on top of Cyanogenmod.
I don't understand why people flash the official one when jellybro has cherry picks of cm features not yet merged yet. Jellybro is so much better.

Knock On for CM10.2

Going to install CM on my buddy's G2.
Is there any way to get Knock On working on custom ROMs, similar to Slide2wake on Nexus devices.

Knock On works on the customer roms and Knock Off can be done by the following, use either Apex or Nova as your launcher and set the launcher up that a double tab executes the app from the link below and Knock Off will work from any where on the home screen.

im running cm 10.2 as of now.. my suggestion to you is to download screen off... the icon is a black and grayish power button... if you dont use the swipe up from the home button that much for google now, when downloaded you can replace the default so when swiping up from the home button it turns off your screen! its what im using right now and i like it because it works everywhere, even the lockscreen! , also you can do the same thing routing the same app to a double tap feature on apex/nova launcher if you like the knock itself, but as far as just turning off your device when its flat down, this is my solution hope it helped!
"Knock Off" can also be implemented by using GMD Gesture Control and defining a screen off gesture (e. g. swiping down with 3 or 4 fingers). Has the added advantage that it works everywhere, regardless whether you are in the launcher or in any app. Use that on my Tablet Z very successfully.

I do not think there is a "Knock" sound. It is what happens with the gesture of tapping on the screen twice.

KnockON Alternative?

Is there an alternative to LGs KnockON feature on their phones that let's you tap the screen to wake the device, that will work on the S5? Is that something that can be ported or has it already happened?
Thanks.

I wonder how this would compare legally to fingerprint/pin lock in regards to being compelled to unlock your device.

Don't think it would be any different than the other "trusted" options like face, location, and on-body. They are just smart compliments to backup pin/pattern locks.
Has anyone here received this update yet? I've been anxiously awaiting its arrival or been searching for an APK download. Looking forward to trying it out.
installed the latest, and it seemed to disable all security options... i would hold off

im running terminus. but the stock options are just like the ones i posted. either euphoria is missing some files/code, or you somehow are. find out if other euphoria users have ok google working with the screen off and unplugged. if its just euphoria, now a days its easily fixable.

it would have to be fixed/enabled in the rom. but you might have a temporary solution, if it still works. i started a thread last year about this, and not working on aosp roms. until we finally found a solution to it(just some missing files in aosp source). check out the thread, yes its old now, but you might find a temporary solurion in there that will work for you. and please ask, thats the only way we will find out if its the rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/ok-google-everywhere-aosp-rom-t2963716

Probably this. Make sure you flash the FiFix dialer if you haven't already (you don't have to root if you don't want to).

It is really just the Google dialer but for some reason, it is now necessary for Android Pay to work ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
