[Q] Which KK ROM to choose for audio quality

I'd like to change my stock JB ROM for some KitKat based but I've heard about sound quality issues (hissing and others) in KK Roms. Is there any KK rom which has this issues fixed? It has to be completly fixed as I'm using high end, quadra-armature UE900 iems and SQ is the most important thing in a smartphone for me.

Well what device do you have?

Oh sorry forgot to add... It's D802.

Are you aiming for stock experience or are you interested in g pro/flex experience also if the stock Rom is based on d80220b then the audio hissing has been fixed and the ones that aren't usually include in change log if they fixed hissing sound or not

[Q] LG STOCK 5.0.2 vs. AOSP 5.1.x - What say you?

I am wondering what others have to say about STOCK 5.0.2 vs. AOSP 5.1.x, because it pretty much looks like LG is making people play beta testers on an already outdated Lollipop version (considering certain problems people are reporting in the D802 5.0.2 thread).
I currently have 30a on my D802 with the intention to upgrade to 30e, but I'm also eying at AICP 9.x and BlissPop 3.x. Not sure which is the most stable Lollipop for the G2, and I don't have any use for most LG and Google apps anyway.
P.S. So far I really like LP, and I have no intentions to go back to KK.

Have you used 5.1 aosp before? Im noticing worse battery life compared to kitkat, still don't have lg's lollipop update.
Also doubt tap to wake doesn't work on aosp for now at least on ressurection rom it doesn't, no xcam driver for 4k recording and slowmo. Gotta try them both and see if you can live with the pros/cons of each.

Stock is better
And no qslide smartcover qremote quickmemo and other great things that made g2 better than nexus. I'm on android from donut times, and I never thought that I would prefer stock roms....

Edit: and no dorimanx...

Unlike other devices,LG 's stock firmware seems to be way better in battery and features,for me in kitkat.And most of the aosp roms seems more or less the same,also the battery is not good compared to stock.Now in stock 30d LP,the device seems to be smooth and fast,but the battery is not as good as it used to be in kitkat.Still ,for me it looks better than aosp roms.

Fastest STOCK BASED ROM for LG G2

Hello everyone,
From few weeks Im using Cloudy G2 2.2 ROM + Dorimanx kernel with performance mode - and unfortunately this ROM is very slow, few days ago I bought another LG G2 D802 for my friend, it comes with android 5.0.2 stock. Of course this system is completely clean but difference with speed to cloudy g2 2.2 (andorid 4.4.2) is very big. This 5.0.2 rom is much faster, Im asking this question because i have read a lot opinion that older cloudy rom and older stock based roms are more stable and faster than lolipop. But now I see that is not true.
I need stock based rom because of camera (for aosp is very poor).
Which stock based ROM is fastest for LG G2? Thanks in advance for your opinions

cloudy 3.3 + xceed kernel imo

I will try this ROM, any other suggestions ?

From my experience the fastest stock based ROM on the G2 D802 is CloudyStock 2.7. Kitkat is much faster and memmory management is night and day comparing Kitkat and Lollipop. Stock Kitkat based ROMS are optimized to run much better on G2 than Lollipop ROMs. Its interesting that Cloudy 2.2 is running slow for you, maybe try to reflash and use the default kernel that comes with it without changing any kernel settings. This is the ROM I am using ATM and it is one of the fastest. Also try MIUI 7 based on stock Kitkat, Cloudyflex, Cloudystock as I mentioned and other stock Kitkat based roms if you want speedy and snappy performance. Cloudy 3.3 is also good if you want Lollipop but it will bog down after a while and only data wipe can restore its snappyness although frequent reboots can improove memmory management. Dont use Dorimanx kernel it always slows my phone down no matter what settings I use, IDK why. Also if you are using G2 or G3 tweaksbox try disabling it, some settings can slow down your phone. The same goes for Xtana and similar apps thet change systemui and framework apk. Unicon app for changing icons also slows down any OS. Try to run as stock as possible for the snappiest performance.

Good idea to disable g2/g3 tweaks - I will try it, As I remember, on original kernel system was similiar slow. Maybe I just need full format all data/syste/ etc and install clean rom from beginning. Also I will try to record speed of my phone just to comparsion, maybe it is normal but just for me means slow? I dont think so.

I dont think so either. Also when installing choose odexed in aroma, this also affects ROM speed, app openning speed and boot time. Deodexed is not necessery as you can easily theme anything with G3 Tweaksbox even if your rom is odexed. Try shuffling trough D802 development section and you will find a couple of great Kitkat based roms like Coqueror rom or stock 20f prerooted kitkat rom.

Sorry but it's not clear, you mean that is better to install odexed or deoexed rom on beginning?

Its better to install odexed ROM.

Best thing you can do really is flashing a non stock rom...the difference is insane. The major drawback is the camera...the quality is considerably lower. Battery life is more or less the same! Stock lollipop from LG is so bad...even with xceed kernel

You are absolutely right! I know this, camera is just one reason which keeps me with stock rom. I used cyan 11 before and diffrence was huge, I mean camera is so bad but speed sooo good. I think lg g2 is not complete phone for me because of this. Camera is something very important for most of the ppl, and this one for aosp rom is not even worth to rating...

Cloudy or MM

Im new at this phone and getting it today the d800 i have files already for CM13. Which one is more stable and can overclock without issues? Cloudy or MM?

Why do you want to overclock? CM13 is 100 times faster then any 5.0 stock rom, you don't need to overclock. But when using CM you should accept there are bugs and parts not working well. Camera is always best on stock! Sound in stock is better. But on CM13, GPS works well and my phone is as a brand new up to date fast phone. ALthough there are some bugs, it's stable as hell. Never had any hangup or reboot, using CM13's special build from Dr4xxxx (see the most thanked post in official CM13 thread) and Psychogames Kernel. Battery is the same for me.

It depands on you
Well I have tried both ....cloudy rom gives you the feel of LG g4 plus it is stock based rom so it will be bugs free... but it has a lot LG bloatwares which some people find them useful ..you can also install dorimanx kernel which can overclock both CPU and GPU (which for me it is note an important feature since it affects battery life and stability of our precious g2).
CM13 in the other hand is debloated rom with all new Marshmallow features with fast response and much more free ram...it has a few bugs but the developers all fixing it in a good time...I have installed it since last week from Cyanogenmod official site and tested intensively and the only bugs I have found so far are : the rear notification led is not working and the quality of the camera is fine but not as stock .....everything else is working great including the IR remote functions.
For me I have decided to keep using CM13 ?

before doing anything else, make sure your phone is not refurbished. then proceed. if refurbished it could say d800 but be a ls980. so itll brick.
if you dont care about camera, slow motion, and 4k video. then go CM is faster.
camera in stock is better. but CM or AOSP have some bugs. when i tried them theres was hissing coming from speaker.
if you go th cloudy route, then i recomend
CHELOZTEAM UX4 V4.
powerg2
icex
cloudy. to me battery isnt good as others and its slower. besides the others are based on newer firmwares cloudy hasnt been updated.

Are the audio /video drivers included in the kernel?

I have some audio issues with some games (constant distorsions and cracks)
I am on KitKat Omega rom with Civz 1.9 kernel. I like this combination, it is pretty smooth and error free, but i was wondering if, by trying other kernels i could obtain some new audio drivers to achieve better sound in those games.

Thank you, so it's in the Rom. One more question if i may.
Can i go from Kit Kat directly to 6.0 custom rom? And (in case i want to go back) vice versa? Thanks buddy!

you should update to the latest availiable stock at first. theb you can istall custome 5/6/7 based rom

I had the latest official (5.0) and went down to custom KitKat 4.4.2, which is great so far, but, if there is room for improvement, i may give it a shot.
Question is, am i bootloader proof ?
