Hello everyone,
*
I have a little (big) issue with my LG G2 (International D802). Everything was fine until I decided to change rom ( the stock is nice, but has micro lags ). So I decided to change and move to the Carbon rom (nightly) .
*
But the phone battery life was not as good as before, and there was some missing features (complete LG Quickwindow support for exemple)
*
Then, I decided to test cyanogenmod , especially to see if the battery life is better . And then I did something wrong : I started the stock rom recovery (there was an old backup on my phone) .
*
I realized at the end, and the recovery did completely fail , leading to a bootloop .
*
I finally managed to get booting to the stock rom with a .kdz flash using LG FlashTool software.
However, the phone is no longer stable at all: the wifi is slow, it does not detect my sim card , and most importantly, the phone crashes regularly (~ every 5 minutes). I'm unable to access files from windows ( but the phone is detected, just not visible in the explorer) .
*
I also tested the rom 4.4 SFR (France) : no more crashes (at least much less) , but sim card and LG applications do not work.
*
I also managed to get in TWRP recovery : When I turn on the adb sideload function, the transfer is successful, the installation completes without any problems (although I feel it is really quick - I tested Carbon and Cyanogenmod -) but in the end the system refuses to boot ( freeze on the boot animation)
*
In your opinion, is it recoverable?
*
Thanks!

i would kdz again. it sounds like it did not install properly the first time making sure its the exact same kdz file you need. i have had to kdz more than once in the past for it to install properly.

you can also try redownloading your kdz, might have had a bad dowload

Thanks for the answers.
I tried flashing the kdz several times.
I tried 2 kdz: one with kitkat, and the other with jelly bean.
I'm sure that the jelly bean kdz is working, because I flashed it when I got the phone (Hong Kong Rom -> Europe Open)
I'll try the Kitkat Europe Open kdz when it will be available.
Okay... my phone is still buggy, I think the EFS is damaged. Is it possible to repair it ? (found backup and restore but not repair)
Hi,
If I use a LineageOS (or Resurrection Remix OS) version from the last 2 months it gets stuck on the boot animation. Using an April or May version works fine.
The animation, and any sound, plays but it never gets past that. The phone is doing something as it is warm and using power faster than a 1.0A USB socket can charge it, 2.5A is fine though.
I can't find anyone else with this issue here or on Google.
I've tried
* Installing with and without GApps and SuperSU
* Installing with and without GApps and LineageSU
* Both Factory Resets, and Full wipes
* The latest 8.5 firmware and an old 8.1 firmware, from saurav333
* The latest 12.04.2017 firmware, from PsyMan
* I've let most of these boot animations run at least 30 minutes, the longest was 12 hours
* Confirming both System and Data partitions are EXT4 and doing a filesystem fix on both (per a Reddit suggestion)
Offically unlocked? If yes, try with the fw provided by TheStrix. It will boot.
BTW you should have posted this in questions section.
1. make you sure your device is coming from MM with officially unlocked
2. use firmware provided by OP on the 2nd post (officiall LOS 14.1)
hi everyone ,
I've galaxy sm-900f and I got android M 6.1 and the official ROM on it too .
and after flashing this official Rom two weeks now it's slow and delay during browsing internet and opening apps too
Now how can I speed up this device as much as possible ?!
is there any stock I can flash it for this problem guys ?!
thanks alot ..

I am surprised by your post. I have sm-g900f too with stock MM 6.0.1 on it and for me it is fast and smooth. Very often issues are related to how you operate your phone.
I would propose you to do following:
1. start the phone in the "Safe mode" -> phone will boot in clean OS without any user apps so you will be able to see if your apps are causing the problem or not.
If your phone will work much better then restart it into normal mode and try deinstalling apps separately to find the real culprit.
However if Safe mode doesn't make any difference it might be an issue related to your firmware.
2. Download latest official stock firmware for your country and flash it via odin with full wipe. If your phone starts working properly then you are good to go but if not then unfortunately (hopefully not) it might be a hardware issue like for example corrupted eMMC memory etc.
To add to @Many40's tips, I recommend the following:
In developer options, change the animation scale to something smaller like 0.5
Use a different launcher that is known to be light (e.g. Nova launcher)
Disable any apps that you don't use
Ensure you have the latest firmware update (again just to make sure)
In recovery mode, wipe cache partition. This may help with some issues.
If you have installed an antivirus, you can disable it (although this can be ignored for safety reasons). Antiviruses are known to slow down your device.
Ensure all apps have been closed in the background
My device is very bad after the recent system update,
* Touch responsive is slow
* FP unlock little slow
* Swiping for the notification panel is not working in one try
* Totally device is some what laggy.
Help me to solve this issue.
Im planning to flash old stock rom.(through odin)
But i have one doubt, if i flash stock rom, what about warranty ?? I need some experts help in this matter.
Kindly help me.
sometimes after an update, the phone will become laggy for a few minutes to hours (depending how many apps or stuff in your phone). After that, it should smoothen up. If that does not work, you can try to use Samsung's built-in Device Maintenance in the settings options to optimise your device. if that still does not work, consider factory resetting. Worst come to worst, go to Samsung and have they check it.
let it settle for 1 hour without using anything. and if u can look up guides try clearing caches from recovery
J7 Pro need to be factory reset to work normally after update. This really sucks, but that's the only way. I decided to not install system update if I really don't need it.. J7 Pro will be great with LineageOS, but... Exynos make the work hard.
I'm using Samsung Galaxy J7 2017, should I install new OTA update that I received today? (J730F)
These bugs arose for me even after the update. I even reset factory but did not fix it.

UltimateROM
Installation
before installation make sure you have a TWRP recovery
install latest chrono kernel
reboot recovery
install ROM
install chrono kernel again
If you proceed with installing GAPPS, you might have running out of space on /system partition. If you are planning to flash Gapps, you're likely need to use sdcard repartition (see below how to). Below is installation sequence with the repartition of the internal sdcard:
like before, make sure you have kernel with TWRP recovery inbuilt
install latest chrono kernel
reboot recovery
flash ReParted zip. This will wipe system, data and cache partitions!
install ROM
install chrono kernel again
*please note a possibly undesirable effect of the repartition: cache partition will be decreased to 15 MB and some ROMs that rely upon this partition won't boot. To restore original sdcard partition layout, flash stock 4.1.2 ROM (with PIT file).

Sorry for the stupid question, but how to apply this fix? I've tried using this source instead of vibrator.c from hardware/libhardware_legacy repo, but there were the same issues.
Should be as you said, replaced vibrator.c from libhardware_legacy Rom source. This code was the same for Janice from JB 4.2 and above as I remember. When I was made CM13, this fixed continuous vibration after Rom boot up on Janice.
Are u enabled vibrator driver in kernel config? Driver is diffrent than Codina's one.
Maybe something in build process. Try to remove first compiled binary in hardware/libhardware-legacy/libhardware_legacy.so and build again make <device> libhardware_legacy.
Dear ChronoMonochrome. I am SOO GLAD Thank you.I thought Janice is dead! Thanx a lot ?(It is still my main phone..)
What's the best ROM for this device that i can use as daily driver?
Vibration doesn't work mean totally unable or just keyboard vibration?

Vibration is disabled totally on this build. But don't worry, it's a temporary solution I had to accept, so that I can work on other stuff in the meantime.
@ChronoMonochrome I followed the exact sequence reported in the main post, but I guess something must be wrong.
I started from a freshly installed LOS 11 by epirex, latest october build, everything wiped, then I proceeded flashing chrono kernel before going to flash UltimateROM and chrono kernel again.
At this point, as happening coming from stock 4.1.2 + CoCore R24, I can't get to recovery and instead obtain a bootloop that again need me to do an odin restore.
Am I the only facing this issue? doing something wrong?

It's possible that there's a bug somewhere in the current installation method. I will review this as soon as I finish working on the kernel stuff. It's not necessary to flash a whole stock firmware image each time after you lose recovery mode working, you only need to flash a stock kernel.
In my experience, after flash most of Epirex's Rom will have bootloop in samsung logo, if u don't want go thru odin.
Easier way is just need flash leggera rom and proceed to recovery/other rom.
That's true, the problem in my situation is I can't get to recovery, so flashing leggera wouldn't be possible.
I solved following chrono suggestion, packing stock tar file with just kernel, so without the need of a full stock system flash from odin, but just the kernel/stock recovery.
Vibration fix
Vibration fix
Due to issues with an infinite vibration, a vibrator HAL was disabled on this ROM.
Until the next update, there is a fix to this issue:
install chrono kernel r5.8.2 or higher
remove file /system/lib/hw/vibrator.montblanc.so
reboot

Thank you so much chrono, just installed your new update, it took so much time to me to install the rom (by latest CK twrp recovery) but anyway it finished and booted fine.
Now I will be using it for a few days, had to do two reboots to have everything set up and working (got some issues with browser, music app and file manager not starting after first boot, while media scanner started working after the second reboot).
It seems smooth to me as the build #1, for this little first impression.
Will take some time to use it and report
UPDATE 31.08.2018
Ok, so far I am using it for days now and I can say I didn't found major probles at all, I kept everything as much stock as possible and it is fine.
To me seems like wi-fi signal strength is a bit lower than what I was used to, but need further days to say this safely (wheater conditions can influence this).
Multitasking is globally good, had some little glitches some times, I think this can just be tweaked a bit indeed by the user, on the base on what's the use of his terminal.
Had some troubles with gps when on mobile network, like it took too much time to get the fix and aborted, while this didn't happened when on wifi connection (a-gps related?).
Anyway I don't found these some important or unfixable issues at all and I am very happy with this update, I am using you rom without google apps (Opengapps) and I can say it is just fantastic.
Thank you Chrono
Hello, please tell me the solution to the problem with the auto-rotate screen. and the camera does not work at all. The rest of the firmware is excellent!
