[QRCODE][/QRCODE]Hello!
Before proceeding. It is absolutely necessary for you to be on a stable TWRP build (currently, RC8, 3.0.2-0, and 3.0.2-1). Also, you must have already have had decrypted your ENTIRE phone. If your phone bootloops into TWRP, you probably didn't decrypt, and/or didn't flash no-verity properly, or it could also be that you are on an old TWRP build.
Here we have the base NRD90M ROM from LG.
I have added a few mods to it.
FEATURES
**Multi-user working!
**This ROM is deODEXd
**Has init.d support
**Modified build.prop for better performance and hardware utility
**Removed bloatware (including that HORRID Lookout)
**Force encrypt disabled
**New kernel built-in.
**Based off 3.18.31 from @jcadduono source (thanks so much)!
**Added in the blu_active governor and set as default (via post_boot)
**No-op scheduler is default, and recommended
**Updated build.prop for better Hotspot support.
**More build.prop tweaks
**init.d support baked into the kernel
**Battery life should be noticeably improved, with no loss of performance (maybe even a bit faster).
**No need to wipe anything. System and caches are automatically wiped.
**Updated to SuperSU 2.78 SR4
**Updated boot and shutdown animation to the Android 7 default (thanks @freeza )
**More bloat removed
** Now includes more performance tweaks.
**Full Busybox support included!
**Fixed updater-script and binary
**Removed Sony Bravia/Xperia Engine
**Zen_Decision HotPlug enabled by default. (This will improve battery life, especially when your screen is off)
**TCP Congestion controller set to Westwood+ (improved download speeds)
**KCAL Color Control! Plus the Color Control app! Thanks to @savoca for KCAL and the app! Thanks to @freeza for the updated KCAL.c source file
**IO Stats for scheduler turned off
**IO Read ahead set to 2048kb
**Added init.d scripts to optimize your phone, and keep it fast over time.
**VPN is fixed!
**Gallery locked files are fixed!
**Bluetooth and FM should be fixed!
**No hotspot or ADB debug issues!
**More things I can't remember.
Kernel built on the Linaro 6.1.1 x86_x64 toolchain
Thanks to @imucarmen for getting me the IMG files, and for testing.
Latest: v5.6
The only change in 5.6 is the addition of LGMessage. Somehow this ROM did not include a text messaging app... WTF? So I added it in from my H918. v5.6 is a full ROM, not just an update. You do not need to be on 5.1 first. Just flash 5.6 and good to go.
v5.5 changes below
v5.5 is intended only for people already on v5.1. It will not wipe anything, and your phone will not need to do its initial setup. 5.5 is an update only! You must first flash 5.1, then 5.5. You can tell TWRP to flash files in sequence, so it's no hassle. ZIP no longer checks your device, so be sure that you are flashing for the model the sticker on the phone says that it is.
Here are the changes for v5.5:
Removed boot state verification. This allows your device to pass CTS on SafetyNet. That means that you are able to use a root hide program, or maybe full unroot within SuperSU, and apps like Android Pay and Pokemon GO will work. They will never work if root is detected, no matter what.
Used more independent defconfig lines, hopefully static will go away... I highly doubt it, might even cause a no-boot issue. If it does, just tell me and I'll fix it up.
The main changes here are even more battery saving
**some voltage control preparations (still not active)
**added a DNS resolver module to maybe help some people with hotspot.
**Bluetooth and FM should work even better than before (hopefully not worse lol)
** C-states are made aware in the kernel, so sleeping should be more effective, while waking up should be more snappy.
More things. Do it!
Can confirm Pokemon GO and Android Pay work perfectly. Just need to hide root.
Use the app attached.
Checkmark where it says "Stop all su daemons"
Reboot
Open RootSwitch again, and the checkmark should still be there, click disable root, and test with an app called SafetyNet Helper Sample from Play Store. When root is disabled, SafetyNet test will pass with a full green screen.
When you are done playing, you can enable root again. The game checks every so often, so root needs to be disabled to play for X amount of time.
Here are the changes for v5:
**ViPER4Android is preinstalled
**Kernel updates to latest sources (no changes other than updates)
**Included Titanium Backup pre-installed. I highly recommend getting the license, this program rocks, and never has ads. With a license you can do batch functions, and theres more features.
**Included Kernel Adiutor to prepare future kernel updates (CPU/GPU under+over clocking later on). You can also use this to tweak I/O settings, governor, screen color). Everything should run pretty good as it is, but what I do, is set read_head in I/O to 2048, and disable I/O Stats. I also set it on boot. I do not recommend modifying any CPU or GPU frequencies since there are no changes in the kernel to allow for that.
**Updated to latest Super SU
No need to wipe anything. If you are on stock ROM, ODEXd or deODEXd, or any other NRD90M ROM, you don't need to wipe, the ZIP will take care of everything for you. /data will not be wiped, so all your old apps and settings will be there. Internal storage is of course untouched.
For anyone interested in my color options, they are:
My new settings are:
All 3 colors at 256
Saturation 68
Value 129
Contrast 127
Know that I love deep, rich, vibrant colors. Also, changing colors will not change effects on pictures taken! This is post-processing. Your phone's screen is what changes, not the files that you create.
Note: Adding saturation (vibrance) will always give some sort of color banding -especially since KCAL is post-processing. You can minimize color banding by ever-so-slightly reducing gamma (read as "Value" in the Color Control app), and by ever-so-slightly fine-tuning Contrast. The value changes would be minimal, and the color banding will only be reduced ever-so-slightly, but this is just how it is. Nonetheless, the device looks friggin amazing with the color options set.
Having issues? Read below.
I need you guys to hear me out on this...
I do not have this phone, I cannot do any sort of testing, nor do I keep up with your rooting method.
That said, I cannot fix things that were broken due to the bootloader (such as Static Boot), so if WiFi calling did not work for you after flashing the custom bootloader, please don't ask if it is fixed... I do not know how to fix it. When/if it is fixed, I will let you guys know that it is fixed and who to thank for said fix.
Additionally, I need you to tell me things that do not work. I might not be able to get to all messages, or questions, so if you see that I did not reply, ask again and again until I do... I will reply and answer (obviously don't spam). Be sure to quote me, mention me, or message me. I do not check-in with these threads, just the H918 thread. If you do not send me a notice, I will not know that my attention is needed.
What issues that are ROM-related, not user-related can you report? You will know it is user-related if you modified anything in the phone/ROM.
If you flashed a different kernel, I cannot help you; flash back to the NSS kernel, and re-test.
If you are unsure about an issue, do a clean flash (in TWRP: Wipe-->Advanced-->select Dalvik, System, Data, and Cache (DO NOT SELECT INTERNAL STORAGE OR SDCARD)-->Swipe to wipe-->Install ROM-->boot phone, do not change or install anything. Retry your issue, if it is fixed, great. If it persists, go into your SD Card, and Internal Storage, remove the folders called "Android" and ".android_secure", reboot and try again. Still doesn't work? Mention me and post it here.
Remember, you can backup your USER apps in Titanium Backup (do NOT backup system apps, or restore system apps/system data).
You can also backup your existing setup and apps in TWRP so you can flash back to your original setup. This is good if you did a clean flash, and your problem is still there, you can restore your backup and be like nothing was changed.
Thanks @zhuhang for V4A!
Major thanks to @Chainfire for creating SuperSU
Major thanks to @jcadduono for the root exploit, AND for the TWRP image(s), AND for inspiring me to learn to do it. Also, he supplied the stock System.img, boot.img, and sources for a custom kernel!/RealMVP
Viper4Android is included! To enable, run the app, and configure how you please!
More to come (as I learn to do it)
Please make any requests. If it is not too difficult, I will learn how to, and add it to the MODDED ROM!

Awesome!! Cant wait to use this.

Note to all. You will notice that the theming option is missing from the settings under home. Don't fret! Theming is still in the Rom you just need to add a shortcut for it. I'm personally using Nova Prime and assigning an activity for the theming app so it makes an app icon. There are independent apps in the store that can do this as well.
Just a heads up for those of you using themes and wondering how to apply them.
@Tilde88 so a hot reboot let's you see the boot animation and I wanted to let you know it needs scaled down. It's way too large and actually is blurry because of it.

The bootanimation is the right size, as it is the same that I use for the other models. There is something fishy with your bootloaders after doing that conversion thing. I don't fully understand it.

I see. Just letting you know the things I'm seeing. I hot reboot on the US996 rom and the boot animation was normal size. On the vs995 the word android is gigantic. It spans from edge to edge of the display and looks like a size 26 font lol

Kernel crashed @Tilde88 I was using some custom settings so maybe that's why. I was underclocking and using the Blu Active gov and the zen hotplug.
Any chance of a Sprint ROM?

I don't understand what you are saying. Lot's of typos. Also, over/underclocking does not stick, as it is not unlocked in the kernel.

lol it was only one typo. Made should have been maybe.
According to Kernel Adiutor it's sticking. I have the cpu max clock set to 1920 and it never goes above it.

Perhaps. Definitely, I would try downloading a new copy. I didn't have any issues flashing.
Can you guys tell me if you are having USB issues when plugging in to your PC. Trying to figure out if the ROM has a bug or if someone has a driver issue.
Thanks.
No issues here connecting to computer through usb.

Um, this ROM and kernel is built for the VS995, so if the sticker on your phone says VS995, flash it.
Hello!
Before proceeding. It is absolutely necessary for you to be on a stable TWRP build (currently, RC8, 3.0.2-0, and 3.0.2-1). Also, you must have already have had decrypted your ENTIRE phone. If your phone bootloops into TWRP, you probably didn't decrypt, and/or didn't flash no-verity properly, or it could also be that you are on an old TWRP build.
Here we have the base NRD90M ROM from LG. This is for phone models US-996 (only flash this if the sticker on your phone says US-996. There is already a ROM for the H910, H918, and VS996 that I've made, use that instead if your device is different).
I have added a few mods to it.
I still need the Sprint system.img and boot.img, as well as for the Korean F800L, if you can get me those files, I can build for you.
FEATURES
**Multi-user working!
**This ROM is deODEXd
**Has init.d support

Thanks to @imucarmen for getting me the IMG files, and for testing. whoops, thats from a different thread
Latest: v5.1 combined with v5.5
v5.5 is intended only for people already on v5.1. It will not wipe anything, and your phone will not need to do its initial setup. 5.5 is an update only! You must first flash 5.1, then 5.5.

**Bluetooth and FM should work even better than before (hopefully not worse lol)
** C-states are made aware in the kernel, so sleeping should be more effective, while waking up should be more snappy.
More things. Do it!
Here are the changes for v5:
**ViPER4Android is preinstalled
**Kernel updates to latest sources (no changes other than updates)
**Included Titanium Backup pre-installed. I highly recommend getting the license, this program rocks, and never has ads. With a license you can do batch functions, and theres more features.
**Included Kernel Adiutor to prepare future kernel updates (CPU/GPU under+over clocking later on). You can also use this to tweak I/O settings, governor, screen color).

He needs someone with the stock sprint rom to give him the system.img and the boot.img
Without those files, he can't do anything.
I'm guessing that it will fix HD calling, ## codes, wi-fi calling, FM and PRL updating.
Can someone please be kind enough to remind an old school n00b how to get to recovery please? I had my US996 rooted using the @jcadduono method if that makes a difference. But I seem to have forgotten the key combination/sequence to reboot in recovery.
On that note, just to be clear, this modded ROM can be flashed on top of @jcadduono rooted stock ROM without any other steps? (of course I'll be sure to check my TWRP version first)

Are you rooted? Just download a reboot app that will give you a recovery option.

OK that sounds simple enough. So basically that's it? I download this, reboot in recovery, flash and viola? Sorry, I came to LG from years of Samsung, so this has been a somewhat anxiety-inducing learning experience for me so far--haven't bricked, boot-looped, etc yet and trying to keep it that way if possible lol

That's the long and short of it! As long as you're sure you have the US996 variant. Tilde88 made this super easy to flash and I've seen a big improvement so far!

The button combo (which is important to know for any phone when rooting because what if you can't boot into the ROM?) is volume down + power and when you see the LG logo release power for a moment and repress and hold it until you see a white screen with a yes or no question. Answer yes to both questions and you'll be in TWRP. It will not factory reset you when you have TWRP installed.
A few days ago, there was an update from zhuhang for the already released Viper4Android 2.5.0.5. It addresses the issues that a lot of people are having with getting V4A working under Nougat. I tested it with my ROM, and the driver installed without error. So then I decided to make a flashable zip that would preinstall the driver and save you a few minutes plus a reboot. Other than possibly needing to grant Storage permissions in Settings, this is a quick flash and go.
The zip that should work on any LG-based ROM, and possibly on AOSP-based as well. Just download, flash in TWRP, and reboot. You may need to grant Storage permissions in Settings.

First
Thanks for this.. I'm sure many will get use out of it..!
Not sure if I did something wrong or not - but I can't get it to work.
I'm on DevDigital's ls997 ver 6.5 magisk phh.
Flashed in twrp. Granted root permision.
go to SuperSU / un-check Mount_name spaces separately / under the settings. turn on adb debugging.

You shouldn't have been promoted to grant root access. V4A only needs root to install the driver, which is preinstalled.
If you're being prompted to install a driver, the ROM likely uses a different conf file to control audio.

He built and ported to magisk recently. Has a module you need to install then install Swansong
I haven't played with it yet. I like the new app but dont see a diffence in drivers from 2.5.0.4 to 2.5.0.5
Magisk has a compatible module in his downloads via the app that works with my rom (2.5.0.4)
I install that via magisk manager then i pulled the latest viper4arise.apk and installed instead of the older ui viperfx apk that is linked on the downloads page inside magisk manager.
Driver installs correctly for many others as well. You may need to dirtyflash my rom and start over. Magisk manager also received a update yesterday via playstore. The process on phh or magisksu as its now called is different now as its "systemless" vs modifying the actual system files.
If you dont want to go 5through the hassel of above. Just go to developer settings inside of the viper apps settings and turn off selinux and recheck driver status. Im 99% sure it works this way but ive said it before, i wont push the rom this route as i dont perfer it to be off by defualt.
Hope this helps
Got it all worked out thanks to the rom creator above. Team DevDigitel.
Thank You
Thank you for your work on this flashable zip it's much appreciated, I just have a couple of questions though for anyone who might know..
I'm still running the original stock rom (rooted with TWRP) on my LG V20 and a while back I followed the directions from another thread to install V4A, and I was able to get it to work (even through bluetooth) but it's kind of wonky and just hit or miss so I'd really like to try this one out instead.
I'm assuming I should uninstall the version of V4A I have right now but is there anything else that I need to do (besides a nand backup) before flashing this one? Also one of the steps to install the V4A I have right now was deleting a system file (I'll have to go look to be sure but I believe it was something like mixer_paths.xml), so I just thought I'd check to see if that will somehow effect this version or if I possibly need to put the original file back where it was before flashing this one?
I apologize if these are stupid questions but I just thought play it safe and check first before giving this a shot, because even though the version I have is kind of wonky it still works through bluetooth which from what I've read is something that a lot of people haven't been able to get working, and since I use it so much I'm just afraid to even risk losing it. Anyway I'll definitely create a backup before doing anything but any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

You don't need to delete any files for this zip. You're supposed to delete /system/etc/audioeffects.conf, but I've done that with the script.
As I use this more, Bluetooth still occasionally doesn't process after pausing for an extended period, like getting out of the car for more than 5 minutes, but all you need to do for it to kick back on is exit V4A from the menu, then open it up again. It'll immediately start processing again.
If you have an unmodified system backup to restore, that will help ensure it works OK, but it may not be needed.

Thank you for the quick response and for the info and I have no clue why I had mixer_paths on the brain but yeah audioeffects.conf is the file I had to delete while installing the version I have, and as far as what you said about the bluetooth acting up it sounds pretty similar to the wonkyness that I was describing with the version I currently have.
One weird thing that I've noticed with mine (and I don't have the slightest idea how or why it's doing it) is when I'm listening to music through my bluetooth headset, none of the settings under the "Bluetooth" section in V4A have any effect on the sound whatsoever.. but what's weird is that all of the settings under the "Headphones" section do (so it's basically like the section names were swapped somehow)?!
I know for sure that I don't have anything plugged into the jack and the headset I'm using is definitely bluetooth (because it's pretty easy to tell lol), so I have no clue why the settings under headphones would work just fine while the ones under bluetooth don't do it anything at all?
Anyway thank you again for the info I'll give it a shot as soon as I have time and let ya know how it went, and unfortunately the only thing I didn't backup was my unmodified system (it didn't even cross my mind until after I was done rooting) but hopefully it'll still be ok. Thanks again!

You can definitely control BT devices from the BT tab on this one. And I've found with more testing that before I get in my car, switch to V4A and exit it, then open it again as soon as Play Music connects. Works every time.
I would just like to say thank you!!
I installed this .zip on my T-mo variant over the previous V4A install via dirty flash. It resolved my Bluetooth processing issues on the stock V20 ROM. I've been working on this the past few days. VERY happy it now works in my car like my last phone did!
Now, once I get the nerve to flash over the new modem and bootloader via TWRP to get up to 20j, I'm highly inclined to check out the new ROM by NATF.
Cheers!

The new modem and other firmware is not a strict requirement for ROMs built on 10j. You just need to make sure TWRP is on the latest release.

Hey guys
Its been a few year since I rooted. don't worry ive already spotted the guide on how to.
My question is once im rooted. Does the old Xposed framework thingy still exist?
What app are we using for govenor/kernel control?
Is titanium backup still a good option?
Basically, whats my app suite gonna look like when im done? How am I going about tweaking my phone?
I guess im asking whats your set of default apps for your rooted phone. Mangment, tweak, backuo, gapps etc
If you have the xperia xz1, which is on android 8, oreo I don't believe Xposed framework is working on oreo yet. I also believe only one kernal is working to get root, not sure if it has any governor controls though. Titanium is still good for removing unwanted bloat.
To answer about xposed, it still work on oreo but this is a beta take a look at my attachment, I have a XZ1 Running oreo 8.0.0 firmware 47.1.A.12.75 and Xposed is working on it, I flashed it through TWRP
Hope it helped
Thank you
Just wanting to get back on the root shoot.
Even if im just rooting and trimming all the fat out. Xposed looks good. Cant wait to take all the bloatware out. Is there a "safe to remove" list about? At work ATM, but will be diving right into this this week

from trial and error there isn't a lot of "safe to remove" items, I trimmed out 5 maybe 6 items before the rom got squirrelly.
This is just from memory but I got rid of avg, chrome (I use Iron browser) email and exchange, amazon and wiki links, as well as the system facebook and youtube ( to give more control over those items) Just about anything else resulted in apps force closing or other issues
Thanks guys,
Seems like its all just about how it was. Give or take a few apps.
My last thing I wonder is, how do I run barclays bank app? Im pretty sure it'll not run due to the root. Is there a way round this? Sandbox or something?
I think I just found my answer. Wondering what Magisk was ???
So with magisk I can run banking apps etc. It will also manage all of my root blah blah. Xposed can help me **** about with things. Titanium backup. And new OS.
I think im ready now ?
If you run Xposed, you lose a large chunk of the MagiskHide capabilities. You're better off without Xposed and just using Magisk
Really? That's bad. I remember xposed was fun. I shall have a read up on Magisk when I get time.
Planning on the weekend. So I can have a full day of it ?

I recommend you to use EXKM (for kernel control) and FX File Browser (with the root addon) for all the debloating and modifications in the system folders.
Hey,
Ive never heard of EXKM. But still using FX browser since last time I rooted. Never switched ?
Hello.
You can install greenify4magisk, sd maid for cleaning, myandroidtool (do what amplify do but without Xposed)

Ive unlocked the bootloader
followed this guide
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-xz1/how-to/guide-how-to-persistant-root-xperia-xz1-t3718375
And everything worked fine
But i want to install CarbonROM
At what point in that guide do i install CarbonROM? Because my phone has been sat here at the boot "Sony" screen for about 30 mins now, and im pretty sure its not gonna boot up
Ok,
This is doing my head in now.
Twice now ive had to do a full reinstall, how in the living hell do I get xposed installed ontop of magisk?
I think install the xposed installer, then the SDK 26 from magisk. Then reboot? But it bootlooped on me?
Did I technogology wrong?

On the latest version ( .179) , you can't use xposed with magisk. There is nothing to do but waiting right now . We have to wait beta 4 or whatever.

But am I getting the install procedure correct?
Im not even sure theres anything in closed I actually want. But its an option, therefore I must put it in ?
ProtonAOSP
Android 11 ROM
ProtonAOSP is a minimal Android fork (custom ROM) focused on UI/UX and performance, with a touch of privacy.
Usage with my Proton Kernel is recommended to get the most out of your phone. The ROM does not include Proton Kernel, so you will need to flash it yourself. The ROM will still work with other kernels, but you will not get the benefits of Proton Kernel.
Screenshots
Screenshots of the latest version
Installation
This ROM is currently distributed as factory images, similar to stock. Flash it the same way you would flash stock factory images. Don't forget to wipe all data using "fastboot -w" before booting the ROM.
Firmware is included, so there is no specific requirement for which version of the stock ROM you are coming from.
You can also use the quick & easy web installer, which allows you to install and update the ROM from any computer or phone without using the command line. The installer works entirely within your web browser and completes in as little as 4 minutes, depending on the speed of your internet connection. Consider using the web installer instead of installing manually.

Thank you very much for posting this. I'll definitely be checking it out. Your Proton kernel is quite good already. Interested to see how the ROM functions too.
Really appreciate you building and sharing this for us!
I saw in the P5 thread that it may be possible to get call screening to work if the dialer gets systemized. It's a feature that has really come in handy for me so just want to confirm it will get call screening working.
To confirm, I just need to put GoogleDialer.apk into product/priv-app?
Alternatively, could I just use something like Titanium backup to make it a system app?
TIA

I am new to ADB AS my old phone used TWRP. Do I need to unlock the bootloader? Is it recommented to Start Form stock ROM, because I am currently on LineageOS?

You do need to unlock the bootloader. Switching from LineageOS should work, but you will need to wipe data as always.
microG should be installed from F-Droid after installing the ROM.

Thank you very much. I flashed it and it rebooted directly to the OS. Afterwards I installed your Kernel. The OS feels fast, but in comparison to Lineage for the same Phone, it feels slower. If you swipe for the action center, it is very slow and laggy. If you swipe for task manager and swipe through the recent apps, it lags. Are there any similar experiences?

The lag in those specific locations is caused by the frosted glass blur effect. Disable it in developer options if you want to trade it off for performance instead. The blur performance problems should be addressed in future versions.

I tried to use Magisk Systemizer and Titanium Backup to move this into a system app, but there's not enough free space in what I'm assuming is the system partition (Titanium Backup just labels it the "System ROM").
I tried to uninstall some of the system apps using Titanium Backup and SD Maid Pro but both failed to be able to remove any "expendable" system apps.

Yes, you can dirty flash updates to my ROM. Clean flashes are only necessary when switching from another ROM.

With dynamic partitions, the system partition is perfectly sized to hold exactly the amount of data the ROM has in it, so there will always be no free space. You need to use Magisk to systemize apps.

Dynamically sized partitions explains the "no free space" (and it makes total sense to layout the system partition this way). I was trying to use Magisk Systemize, took me revisiting it to realize that I didn't have Busybox installed. Installing the Magisk BusyBox module enabled me to Systemize the Phone app. Many thanks!

With dynamic partitions, the system partition is perfectly sized to hold exactly the amount of data the ROM has in it, so there will always be no free space. You need to use Magisk to systemize apps.

Hello kdrag0n, I am thinking about switching phone service from Verizon to Google FI and I would like to root a Pixel 4a or an Pixel 4a.(5G). Can anyone tell me if this Rom has the Hotspot wifi tethering option included in the Rom? Thank You
