H850 20K Source - LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hey
Since the latest sources from LG has been absent for a while, I thought I'd let people know it's now available here.
Couple weeks ago I sent a request to the LG Open Source Code Distribution site and asked for updated sources. Few days later I got a mail with good news.
Don't know if it was my asking, or coincidence.

What about 20n? Which is already out in UK.

Could be worth a look to see what's changed and see if it will work with updated bootloaders etc...

Did you check it out? Find anything?
Asgard kernel doesn't work the latest bootloader?
I may build a kernel with kcal - temporarily, as I don't want to downgrade my bootloader.
btw, I'm new here I have not rooted my G5 until today.

@eoghan2t7
It's seem the 20k source will not even work with the 20k rom/bootloader... wtf?
Maybe I've done something wrong. I am using latest Fulmics.

Good to know that it's happening on the LG homeland, officially. For other LG products like their phones, anyone know what the usual lag time there is between release in Korea and North America?

No, devices with custom recovery can not get OTA updates. You will have to restore to the stock recovery or wait for flashable ZIP version of the update.
I've installed the pre rooted kk version yesterday.But I think I'll go back to linaro cm11. LGs ok seems not fully allowing immersive mode. What I'd love to keep around would be the keyboard and the lock screen. I just love how the lock screen wallpaper reveals the home screen around the finger where the screen is touched. Other than that I think I liked cm11 better. I just have to pass on ART in favor of exposed. Xposed just brings so many options. Btw some Xposed modules just don't work as expected on stock.

It was posted in XDA before. Link.
Technically its not, because we are reporting official update being rolled out in Korea in the General section and not a download link to the actual firmware, plus I didnt get that link when I searched the other day.. anyways .. if you feel that disturbed by my post .. I'm requesting to any admin/mod to remove it!

How does my giving a link get interpreted as being disturbed? Someone accused you of having gleaned it from XDA, and instead of simply saying they were mistaken, you quoted the timestamp as proof. The link I gave clearly says it was taken from the official LG servers, and beyond the dozen posts that preceded your thread, I personally posted I had installed and tested it, and deleted it, all before your thread. That does not mean you got the information from XDA, but it was definitely already being discussed and tested before you posted it, that's all.
Does anyone know if it solves the 7 edge led lighting problem?

KitKat tracking post XT925

Hi guys.. I madre this post in order to track the KitKat upgrade.-
Here you can post any news about it.. Just like the XT926 post
Edit:
THIS IS THE SOAK TEST FIRMWARE, THIS IS NOT THE FINAL RELEASE!
Orphee said:
Hi again...
So I edited the updater-script in the OTA file to remove all checks...
There was also a "aboot" and "recovery" flash with an auto reboot in the middle of the script. I removed it.
the "aboot" is still flashed at the end of the file... the "recovery" can be flashed manually with fastboot after...
So here are the steps :
I DON'T TAKE ANY RESPONSABILITY OF ANY PROBLEM THAT COULD OCCUR ON YOUR PHONE, TRY IT AT YOUR OWN RISK !
YOU MUST HAVE AN UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER
- Flash original RTFR 4.1.2 with RSD Lite (it will wipe everything ! backup all your internal SDcard before doing this)
- Normal boot the phone and finish initial startup configuration
- Reboot in bootloader and flash this recovery : http://d-h.st/p6M ( fastboot flash recovery philz_touch_6.43.8-moto_msm8960.img )
- Reboot in recovery and flash the modified OTA ZIP : https://mega.co.nz/#!I5xxSKCT!D9waHBuunDa8K2sJHUF_wMxZMnOqwheAQ6K62BBWIuQ
- Reboot in bootloader with "Power options" of the recovery
- flash the special 4.4 recovery : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2747535 ( fastboot flash recovery xt926-KK-CWM-6048.img )
- Reboot and VOILA !
I DON'T TAKE ANY RESPONSABILITY OF ANY PROBLEM THAT COULD OCCUR ON YOUR PHONE, TRY IT AT YOUR OWN RISK !

Hi,
I removed my link to the OTA modified ZIP...
There is wrong informations published somewere telling my modified OTA is the official OTA release...
I can't leave people think it is...
We know now this leaked OTA release is buggy (SMS) so I don't want users to believe they are flashing the official OTA.

One day ago I went out this service for assistance when kikat xt925 for O2 (germany) they told me that no update is planned. as should be expected instead to retail but not seen on the market. it should be possible to flash the firmware on my kitkat O2 brand.

Yes, we're all waiting for that. And indeed, no carrier here in Argentina would work on the update.
I'm not sure if the word has been spread here, but according to dhacker Motorola said they would release the code after all devices get the update, but I don't have a source for that.
But, I saw someone in their sourceforge saying that they will release the source in github "In a week or so", though. This was six days ago.
However, I can't verify if he is a legit motorola employee or not.

Confirmed legit Motorola employee. He was a contact that krystianp and others over on the Atrix 4G used as a springboard to get assistance on the 3.1.10 kernel that they have for their 4.0 and up ROMs.

Just changing your Rom from sense to CM will not enable you to get the lollipop ota.... NOT even flashing a gpe Rom will do that... U have to actually do the full GPE conversion to be able to do that.
You have full instruction on how to do that?

There's a thread in Dev section.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358781
I might get gpe updates for this without manually changing it? Because I'm waiting for android Lollipop.
You won't get the update unless you're running stock gpe. I'm sure someone around here will make a rom of it for us tho.
Im currently running 'GPE and waiting for the OTA. If i can get my hands on it, i´ll upload it, but i think
somebody will be faster due the way of getting chosen for the update in the first days.
There will most likely be a rom built from source before the OTA is out. That has been the way this update has gone. The source is uploaded first before the OTA is pushed. HEck the nexus 4 had the source and img files uploaded for almost 2 days before the OTA was pushed out.

(Q&A) Any major changes in final release of lollipop (India)

Those who are using Indian soak test before and now using official release in India.... Do you notice any changes?
Sent from my XT1068/69 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Soak Testers didn't get the final OTA and will not get it. Reason is, the final OTA rolled out today is the same one soak testers got. They just got it a little early. You can see in the screenshots that everything under About Phone is same in soak test version and final version.
So does this in theory then mean that those of us who installed the captured soak test from the other thread will not need to use any other captures in the future and be able to use the ota update just fine without any chances of bricks etc

I mean we'll be able to download ota's without worries of getting our phones bricked because of it being from soak. I remember reading the other day someone was talking about how if we want to be able to use ota we'd have to use a stable capture first in order to be able to use ota. It seems that won't be an issue though since soak and stable are the same with just different release dates so we shouldn't have to worry about that right? Sorry for being silly here. I'm not exactly an ape man when it comes to tech but I'm not feeling the need to fiddle around with roms and bootloaders on this phone when I shouldn't really need to

Well, it was me who said that the other day. That time the official update hadn't rolled out and we thought it would be a newer system version. But, now that it's released; we now know that it is the exact same OTA, so no problems for future updates either. It's like we never installed soak.

Yea i suspected something like that was going on when I saw that new thread about the stable and people were saying everything's exactly the same but just wanted some sort of confirmation. Now the only thing that I don't know if it'll affect anything in the future is that my build number on 4.4.4 was kxb now it's lxb (unless k stands for kitkat and l for lolipop lol. dunno) but i don't think it would be a problem since the system version has only the numbers changed and everything else is as it was on kitkat. Seems like the indian release works on european xt1068's as well contrary to what I read some people were saying but I guess it depends on some things...

Well that pretty much solved all questions I had regarding lolipop on my moto g. Now the only mystery that remains is if the indian update works just fine when you install it on a eu moto g (well you need to manually install from recovery doe doesn't detect it in the ota screen) why is the eu xt1068's update nowhere to be talked about. All I've seen is india brazil and so on but eu is so silent that even babies can sleep

That´s a mystery for sure!
The only difference between the indian and the european XT1068 is the fact, that the indian version has 16 gb of memory,european model has 8gb.
But there must be something more that differs! In europe even a soaktest is rumored,surveys were sent,so everthing looks like we have to wait in europe for a few more days/weeks.
But why? In another thread I considered that Motorola is afraid of being taken to court or something by european users if something doesn´t work right. European laws are tough. Isn´t that a bit far out?
Or are there any technical differences between these models which are barely known?

Aside from the ram I highly doubt there's any real difference since when I got mine in the first few days of fiddling around it had the hindi, korean and pinyin keyboards which i disabled so I don't think that would be the case....I mean why would most eu phones need these inputs from the get go. As far as laws go I can't really see much reasoning there either since it's a 130-50eu phone so they can't really have much to complain and unless it somehow magically bricks the device I doubt there would be many if any at all issues...Dunno doe. I'm not motorola so i have no idea what's going on through their heads but it's just kinda silly to me considering that everything's running fine on mine at least without any factory resets or anything....could be just me doe. On another note I think one of my little gripes about lollipop is that it doesn't hide the signal bar for my secondary sim when it's inactive and just shows it. Is this just for me or does everyone have that cuz I didn't pay attention to that on screenshots the last few days

Yes, weird but there is reason. MD5 of old link and new capture matched perfect. Update in link by you and new both are same. Looks like Motorola fooled everyone and rolled same update again.
Anyways! Can anyone share TWRP backup of this version?

Some apps like fifa 15 ut and some others are not supported for locked device and while installing from play store it showed error 505.

I just signed up for the beta and as of today there are 87 of 200 slots taken. I'm in Sweden at the moment.
No download or update yet, but that would take up to 2 weeks.
I'm used to rooting and custom ROMing my phones, but there are no options for this one, so the beta is the next best thing.

Any issues with camera? Is is different compared to before the update?
Is it working well? Does one dare update? A broken update would ruin my plans for tonight.

Couldn't wait, like a kid on Xmas eve!
Everything seems to be running ok with the update.
You think we squeeze extra functions out of devs? Like automatic themes depending on daytime and such.

Got it yesterday
For now all is just perfect

It would be nice if you can report back after some days regarding the battery, software, performance and camera.
I already tried to get the update through the beta program, but for me it says no project available. Maybe I can install it from FF, but I don't know if it will be good.
Thanks!

There is not much difference from the latest non-beta update. I would say that the phone is slightly less responsive than before the beta-update, especially when unlocking the phone with fingerprint.
I'm having a separate issue on the camera that was there pre-beta, so I can't give info on the camera.
I have been running the beta for 2 days and now suddenly the screen is unresponsive and the phone randomly reboots. Then suddenly it starts working again.
Anyone else experiencing this?
And does anyone know how to roll back to EMUI 5?

I've crawled the length and width of the internets and there is yet a way to roll back the beta. It's just too new.
I downloaded and tried to flash older firmware, but since the beta resizes the partitions, you can't do it anything until someone with more knowledge puts time and effort into sorting it out. I got as far as unlocking the bootloader but no further.
As for the random reboots, you could try a factory reset. You could also unenroll from the beta, although I was unable to, I think it's because I have an open ticket in the BETA app.

There is a Rollback in Firmware Finder, test on your own risk.
