[ZIP][LGD/JDI] G2PanelSwap - Fix screen issues on the fly! - G2 Android Development

Hai. Many of you know that LG uses 2 panel variants in the G2, LGD and JDI. KitKat based kernels need to be released as 2 seperate zips for each panel.
That sucks, so I made this zip you can flash in recovery to convert whatever kernel you have installed to the alternate panel variant. LGD -> JDI, or JDI -> LGD.
This works on both stock and aosp. So don't worry about ramdisks, let me worry about blank.
JDI users should probably keep this zip on their phone so when they flash a new ROM, they can follow it with this, and you're all good to go.
Enjoy!
hi download me
Thanks @PloniAlmoni for IRC testing.

Savoca is saving the kernel / rom devs from having to build a full set of JDI kernels every time we update

As always, kicking dev butt! We truly appreciate your help in making Development for the G2 as easy as possible. This is a FANTASTIC phone but the difficulty in Dev'n for it makes it not as appetizing for Devs to take on. You are making that obsolete! Thanks again!

Okay. I thought i had this issue. But apparently not because whenever i turn off my screen im unable to wake it again. Is there a way to revert it? And can someone explain in a bit more detail what the problem actually is?
Edit. I fixed by flashing kernel again

Hey guys, sorry to mess with your thread, i recently learnt about the screen damage thing but im still quite clueless on how it works, i have a JDI display, im currently running CM 11 M7, do i need to worry about this? maybe theres a full explanation someone could link me to?
again, sorry for ruining your thread, if you want it removed ill remove it myself if possible or ask a mod to do it
also: i know it says it'll work on AOSP or Stock, does this include all custom kernels ie Dorimanx in Pardus ROM?
thanks in advance.

TEMP NEW POST --------------------------

houstonn said:
Alright, for those of you who are interested... I've Built the new Paranoid Android from source with alittle spice of my own style ...
This is PA, the way I build and the way I like it.. it has PA's new HALO, yes HALO and it's only available as alpha for the official devices that PA builds for, until now.. I'll let you guys try it out .. Altho I truly love rootbox, I also love PA, so I've been building builds for myself but since some ppl maybe interested in what HALO is or wanna try it, I'll offering you guys the opportunity to do so.. please remember to wipe cache and dalvik before rebooting..
DOWNLOAD HERE and then watch the video below.. remember it's alpha so I dont' wanna hear or you posting, this doesn't work and that doesn't work... There is one tip I can give you tho.. If halo is running, you can't install apk's you need to longpress and drag the halo to the X like you are deleting an icon from your homescreen to install apks.... download gapps here make sure you download the newer gapps.. the multidpi gapp is what I use...
second version here if you are having some data problems with the first..

I don't come by the sprint forum much at all but I've noticed that you guys need some love too.. I have a test rom that
@xboxfanj has tried, it was my first aosp I did sprint which I built yesterday.. I updated today on my regular one so I also made an sprint one
you can try it out and if there's enough interest I might open a thread for it.. thanks.
DOWNLOAD HERE
download gapps here http://goo.im/devs/BaNkS/GApps I personal have no issues with banks minimal and multidpi
Downloading and will give it a shot.
Thanks
Looks good. Going to take some time trying to go through all the options. Everything seems to be working, minus the usual bugs that are on all aosp jb roms so far like the phone call issue and camera focus.
One thing that's bugging me is that the status bar color changes when I open the messaging app. I can't seem to figure out how to fix it.

We would appreciate it if you open a thread in the dev section and post it. There aren't many AOSP roms for Sprint users and I'm sure the interest is there.
You should check out this Vanilla Rootbox rom by rlasalle15 because it looks like its the same rom as yours. I'm not too sure on that.
Thanks again.

He won't abandon us. He's helping me on my upcoming project. I'm merging with the optimized for Qualcomm, codeaurora forum kernel and then I will build a codeaurora ROM. It's like aosp, but should run even better with all the newest patches and drivers for these devices.

I put up a new build .. the link is in the OP incase anyone is trying it out. and the changelog you can find here if you've read some of the changelogs you'll find out that there are some features ive implemented.. like under device options in settings it has options to disable/enable cap key lights and vibration intensity. this also comes with my custom kernel but im sure everyone downloads and installs a different one.. for now anyways, till I think of what I should do.. I've been working on this rom for months now and just building another rom after I've spent a good amount of time is kinda useless for me..
I wish I could thank you more for the ability to turn cap key lights off. You're just awesome.

I'm really concerned. I have plenty of great Rom options that I have been flashing on my phone, but there isn't too much happening for this tablet. I bought it 3 weeks ago, and have done all I can to theme it. I rooted, installed cwm, Xposed with several different theming modules, and flashed comadose tweaks. There isn't anything left now, except hope that a Dev gets a hold of this tablet and creates something nice.
Rom
I see lots of posts saying there isn't much available. I can't find anything. Does anyone have a link to a rom other than what comes on it?
Thanks

Looking for a dev to update AOSP Kernel for E980 - $$ Offered

We are looking for a developer to keep our kernel updated from this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51770516
The source is on the OP.. Credit to @uppon2 for finding and posting the kernel and @mcaserg for developing it (believe he changed devices and isn't maintaining it anymore).
We are offering a bounty for development.. So far it is up to $100 - I will update if more pledges are made.
$50 - @nerdyblonde
$50 - @hopsin4444
This is the only known AOSP kernel for our device, and it is outdated and most reported it isn't working too well with 4.4.2. Even though our device is awesome, it doesn't have the publicity it deserves nor the developers. I am trying to learn, but it will take some time since I have never developed for Android before. Thanks all!

QHD Display and Gaming Questions

Can someone explain how this will work? are the games rendered at 2560*1440 or is it 1920*1080 scaled? or is it up to the game developers how this works?
I like the LG G3 but I'm a little concerned about the extreme resolution and how it will effect gaming performance, I'm probably worrying about nothing and Android has a way of handling this but I want to be sure.
Thanks in Advance.

The games with 1080P Resolutions will run on 1080P resolution itself. Its like watching a 720P movie on a 1080P display. Unless they come up with the new Quad HD [xxxhdpi] trend.

Until everything catches up. The only real qhd stuff will be the wallpapers and lg specific apps.
Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk
Okay, so it sounds like games are upscaled somehow or the internal target resolution still remains 1080p?
How about emulators like N64 or PS, if they have no option to set resolution will they be forced to use 2560*1440 when going fullscreen?

as long as t-mo doesn't pull the stunt they did with g2 then you would be able to root g3 on t-mo
So on the g2 t-mo released there variant on 10c we had easy root access and it was easily exploitable for loki usage; fast forward about 8 months to the killer kitkat update for the g2 it took the devs exactly 6 days to figure out a workaround to use loki but 13 days total because we needed the source from lg(they slowed us down), fast forward to late April early May the ls980 finally got kitkat and autoprime(awesome dev) figured out a way to root using the stock recovery and shared it with the community and suddeny there were a lot of reports that the d801 t-mo variant was not being rooted, that there devices were being wiped and it turns out that for some reason t-mo removed access to the stock recovery, it was still there but it was only there for the factory reset option and so root was not and still is not possible on the t-mo g2 all the t-mo users need to downgrade to 4.2 root and either update to kk and hope root survives for those without supersu pro that had survival mode or downgrade to 4.2 root/custom recovery and then install a flashable 4.4 rom for there variants
so if you read my mini rant I suggest you wait until after the g3 is released on t-mo and we have more available information

[KERNEL] Galaxy Light Custom kernel

hello all,
im wondering if anyone would be interested in a custom kernel for the Samsung Galaxy Light T399 as i woud be willing to make one but would require someone to test it as i do not have device
YES!!!!!! I just saw your post on AndroidForums about it, and I really would like one. And also, on the AndroidForums post you said you could make a custom rom, can you please update this one to the latest firmware? http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/rom-lightwave-v1-t2825253
Yes custom kernel and rom would be doable tho as i said i would need someone able to test builds as i do not have the galaxy light (and seeig as it seems to be a us only device i doubt ill get it)

OK, that's fine. What features will be in the kernel? Also, you have a Grouper? Awesome, so do i! What ROM and kernel is it running?

Only got the grouper few days ago(for a bargain price as spares or repairs as it would not boot i might add) so havent messed too much with it, im running pheonixos currently as its quite cool to use.
Planning on overclock as just a start on the light but im going to look in next couple days at weather i can merge the galaxy light kernel stuff into my preexisting sources for s5mini since they are the same cpu

Do you think you can add f2fs support?

Can certainly take a look at f2fs its supposedly faster for performance

Hey steve,
Be awesome if you do manage to bring a custom kernel with oc/uv and deffo adding f2fs that mite give me the chance to port stuff to device been looking at s3mini and 5mini seems most are using f2fs in kernels clueless to making kernel never looked into honestly but if you do have time and complete this can you send me PM please and also permisson to use your kernels in my future builds for this device.

There's different software. The T399 is a T-Mobile phone with Jellybean, the T399N is a MetroPCS phone with KitKat.

ok but is the base hardware the same for both (exynos 3470 etc)

Yeah, I think so.
thats great, on the positive side it looks like samsungs kernel devs have at least some common sense, my sources for the s5mini already include nearly everything to build for both variants of the light so expect kernel to test soon
