Q&A for [ROM] Stock ZV6 Base - Odex & Deodex
Some developers prefer that questions remain separate from their main development thread to help keep things organized. Placing your question within this thread will increase its chances of being answered by a member of the community or by the developer.
Before posting, please use the forum search and read through the discussion thread for [ROM] Stock ZV6 Base - Odex & Deodex. If you can't find an answer, post it here, being sure to give as much information as possible (firmware version, steps to reproduce, logcat if available) so that you can get help.
Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy!
Can this be flashed over my current setup?
Yup. And you can restore back if you want. The only thing that sticks is the modem
Again thanks for all the hard work. Really love the work you do.
OK so I made the leap and dirty flashed this over my current setup. Now I'm having issues with gmail fc'ing. So I uninstalled it thinking that may help. So I tried to install it from the play store and it says "incompatible update"??? Now I can't even sideload it as it tells me " application not installed". Any ideas as to why its doing this?

OK so something weird just happened... I went into recovery to fix permissions to see if that would help and gmail was somehow reinstalled... Its still not working but weird.
---------- Post added at 01:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:59 PM ----------
Disregard my previous posts. Its working now.
I'm really liking the ZV6 update! The ROM is smooth and no lag noticed. I was able to pick up cell signal quickly. Great Job!
I flashed this ROM, updated PRL/Profile and then flashed Sac 2. How can I verify that the modem stuck?

Go to Settings>About>Software. There will be 2 lines of numbers for the modem now.
It'll stick as Sacs doesn't include kernel or modem.

You got it.
A couple of questions. I have bump and twrp installed and rooted on zv4, everything else is stock, except the kernel. I flashed the oversharpening fix kernel. Can I apply this zv6 update to my phone without wiping data and keeping the fixed kernel? Also, should I download the odex or deodexed?

You can probably dirty flash. But you will lose the kernel.
Obviously my recommendation is to start from scratch as there's enough changes/fixes in this update to give you issues.
On the odexed vs deodexed, you can Google it for a better explanation. But the simple answer is: Deodexed is way easier to Theme. But Odexed is said to run a bit faster/smoother because it caches the apps. If I remember that right.
Really the choice is up to you. If you want to Theme it, then you'll need deodexed.

I dirty flashed the deodexed version and when i booted the phone up, i keep getting com.android.systemui has stopped, and I can't do anything with the phone. Any fix in mind? For reference, my dpi was changed, so that may be the issue, i'm not sure

Clean install.
If you used an app to change DPI, then that's probably the issue. You need to wipe data also.
If through the build.prop, then it should've been OK.
You might be able to dirty flash the odexed as that's like factory.
Again, were taking about a factory update so it really should be a clean install.
Anyone having issues with Android Wear and ZV6? When connected to my Moto360 I get running sync loop. The only thing I haven't tried is resetting the phone and watch.
Since the update is already signed by LG, we should be able to use flashify if we have stock recovery and rooted. Is that correct? I know that I should bump TWRP, but I was holding off till lollipop. Just looking to do a dirty flash.

I know Flashify has had issues in the past with these Roms. That's why I recommend doing it in TWRP.
If you have TWRP already why Bump it again?
Maybe I'm misunderstanding.
Edit. I wouldn't think stock recovery would flash this. It's using bits and pieces of ZV6 but not all of it.
And I think the updater-scipt would make it fail. I may be wrong though.

I'm stock recovery and rooted. Since I haven't bumped TWRP, I thought I could flashify and avoid the 5 second TWRP delay issue by holding off on a custom recovery until we get the stock rooted version of lollipop. You and autoprime have always given solid advice and as such I will take your suggestion.

And again, I'm outta Thanks, so Thank you.
The 5 sec delay I talked about has disappeared for me now. But then I've flash about a million Roms in the last few days.
Others aren't getting the delay at all.
I guess what I'm saying is you don't need to reflash Bump TWRP. It works just fine. Even if you get that slight delay. Eventually it'll go away.
Edit. Get TWRP installed now. Have some fun with whatever Rom you want to try. Personally I'm not expecting Lollipop til next year. If it happens sooner great.

So I've been on a slim-stock rooted ROM (I believe this one) of OB1 variety (Lollipop 5.0) and figured why the hell not update to the newest 5.1.1 base since I've been back into phone stuff trying to get my dad's new T-Mo S4 all freshly rooted and updated .
I was thinking of installing this OJ4 (5.1.1) ROM but then noticed that the current modem/kernel/stock .tar files in this wonder thread here say NH4 is the newest version and there's no mention of neither OJ4 nor OB1...which made me have an utter "WTF" moment. Why doesn't that list have either of them on there? My phone's current baseband/moden is OB1, which is what one'd expect from a OB1 ROM without its modem separately updated...but why are NEITHER of them in that list??
Someone please tell me I'm not the only one who finds that downright strange or could help shed light on this mystery, thanks!
TL;DR= Trying to update to OJ4 (5.1.1) and not sure if I have to THEN update everything I can to NH4 after the fact.
Bump, anybody?

Probably because that thread has not been updated.
Here is the official firmware update list from T-Mobile for the S5. You can search for custom builds of those if you like.

Thanks okay. There's a reason they coined the phrase "brain fart". Sometimes something so simple evades you!
I received the 6.0 update tonight. ~788MB download and 20 minute install.
Things I noticed differently:
-Response and fluidity seem better, might be due to it clearing the app cache
-Notification bar is smaller, this is a plus for me
-Messages in the message app are smaller, this is a big plus for me
-Everything LG wise has a more flat material design to it. Looks better than before but still iffy
Will update in the future about the battery usage.

1 of your pics says modified, did you already root it?
Any link kdz ??
Wow... can't believe the VS985 already has official MM coming this quickly. That's so unlike Verizon to get updates out this quickly.
I'm also shocked that VZW released it so early. I'll be waiting for a KDZ so I can upgrade the G3.

I did not. I was rooted versions ago, that was taken away with the 5.1.1 update, but it kept the 'modified' status.
I can look into root for it. The link Bradg24 posted helps. I'll see if I can get recovery on the phone in an easy way.

Rooting a stock ROM, and having a version of SuperSU that will work on it are two different things. That's not a root method unless you:
1. Already have root/TWRP.
2. Have the new ROM as a flashable zip.
If so, then after flashing the ROM then you can flash SuperSU.zip.
This isn't what people are looking for when they're looking for a "root method".

@2kool4u526 can you test the auto brightness on this release? On 35B in a dim room the built-in auto brightness made the screen too dark to be useable, although using Lux Lite from the Play Store rectified that.
Thanks for the info.

You'll have to get root before you can attempt to install TWRP. Keep in mind if it screws up your boot with a secure boot error, you might not be able to fix it until they release a KDZ for 46A, if 46A's Download Mode doesn't allow flashing older KDZs, just as 35B's didn't.

Too bad it's not like Samsung with being able to flash a custom recovery via USB through Odin on a PC, at least that's how it used to be with Samsung before Knox - now I don't know.
I've tried looking into if it's possible to build our own KDZ but I never got anywhere. Since there are tools to extract them there must be a way of building them, although they might contain some kind of manufacturer signature to confirm they're official when flashing them.
Wi-Fi Calling?
Can anyone confirm/deny if this version has any WiFi calling capabilities? I know Verizon rolled out this capability for the S6 and said they were going to update other Android handsets in 2016.
Long shot, but I figured I would put it out there...
do we even have any devs working on stock verizon ports anymore? i thought holyangel and hasbadr stopped working on this device

Define "anymore". @hsbadr , @HolyAngel and @xdabbeb all released 35B-based ROMs, and the only one of those three who's phone situation changed since then is @HolyAngel 's.
Before the KDZ is available (or rooting a stock build of the OTA at a minimum) it's too early to find out if anyone will release a ROM based on it. Heck, if no one else did by some miracle, I would, based on what I learned from @hsbadr and @xdabbeb.
Only those three devs might know if they would update their ROMs, and we shouldn't ask them. Either they will or they won't depending on if they feel like it.
(I know you weren't asking them so please don't get upset)
i know hsbadr didn't have the phone anymore when he did 35b.
Really hoping we can get a Jasmine update for MM, I mean maybe someone can make a poll showing how much demand for one there would be?
Yeah idk if I'll be supporting it or not at this time, at the least need kdz or system dump.

For the hell of it I wanna take my vs985 back to the first firmware that came on it from the beginning or the oldest possible firmware preferably the time it was released. I'm just confused cuz I'm seeing 10b KDZ's saying jellybean 4.2.2 (and tot) but, the ones I've downloaded from several different places turn out to be a tot file that is actually kitkat 4.4.2 which is not what I quite expected. I figured someone made a mistake naming the file but several different ones now? What am I missing? I just wanna try the oldest stuff I missed out on for a lil while and custom roms would work too but kk is the lowest I find so is there anything even lower I cant find a clear answer lol.

Hi!
There wasn't any Jellybean available for this phone. For example, 10B for my LG G Pad 8.3 tablet was Jellybean. You can find the correct 10B KDZ and TOT in @annoyingduck 's stickied return to stock thread in the General section. If the filename has VS985 in it, it's likely the correct one.
Also please in the future post questions in the Q&A section. I'll ask a mod to move this thread there. Thanks!
That's exactly what I thought, I didn't think this phone was even this old but I have the files right here saying vs985 and 4.2.2 jellybean lol but it has to be a mistake. I appreciate your reply sorry about that after these years I still get lost and mixed up here sometimes , and this can be deleted now I got the right answer , thanks again

Mine is on VS98510B Android Version 4.4.2, came like that, but about to change that though as soon as I read up enough and figure out which is best way to go about custom rom install, (currently stock 10B rooted/bumped, w/twrp 3.0/ few mods)

Well I can tell how just about every Rom and mod runs on this phone and anything that you need to know I'm sure I've come across the issue at some point. I've tried everything I could find from your stock version to the latest mm stock and custom roms. A good hint I can give you is make sure you flash the right bootstack before jumping between android versions or you could wind up with a Qualcomm 9008 super brick where the real fun begins lol But it's very easy with this phone and it still blows my G4 outta the water so bad it's pathetic. I had 2 G4's and traded one fire this G3

The KDZs and TOTs in my Android File Host section are in 7-Zip archives that you have to extract to use (and are therefore compressed).
I do that since it seems so few people check MD5 hashes, plus TOTs aren't already compressed like KDZs are, so you reasonably know that when you extract an archive that the file inside it is correct and intact.
In other words, did you compare sizes with the 7-Zip archive you downloaded or the KDZ you extracted from it?
In the end I believe the TOT and KDZ-flashing software checks the file to make sure it's both okay and is for the device you have connected, anyway.
You're welcome!

Yea I was kinda curious about that one, but at least ya know huh, I've made quite a few Oops's myself lol.. But I'm still shocked at how much better the older roms are in alot of ways and LG did pretty good with kk apparently. But I have a gpad 10.1 vk700 and was surprised the lil difference between kk and LP and changed back and forth a good bit quite a few times mixing up what I was running... I should warranty that thing and play with it again, but no recovery so too limited.. Wah Wah Wah lol

Hehe. I'm lucky there was at least an exploit and TWRP for the G Pad 8.3 VK810 variant, and that some developers made an updated TWRP for it later.
I hope when/if it comes time for me to get a new tablet that I can find one that's powerful enough yet have an unlocked bootloader, etc.
I really hope something changes so that with some future Android version that there's another way of handling the optimization of apps so that every time you take an OTA or factory reset you don't have to wait an extra 10-20 minutes. Call me paranoid, but also what if you factory reset and then need to use the phone in an emergency? That long a wait is unacceptable.

Oh there's even a bumped twrp for the gpad 10.1 v700, mine is the vk700 with LTE but it's the same tab. Funny part is I never use the mobile data and I'm stuck with the bill cuz I didn't know better at the time lol I could possibly bump a twrp for it myself but that's a lil beyond my expertise atm. I also wish I'd have known better when I got my g4 or I wouldn't have went through hell and be stuck with a hopelessly locked non developed device with only root and no real fun.

It drives me crazy all these variants of the different devices. That's one thing I definitely like about Nexus, but I've never owned one. I was hoping the HTC 10 would be universal too but it doesn't look to be that way since it says on their website that for Sprint and Verizon you need different hardware (without any further clarification of availability/etc when I looked last week - just said soon). One of the selling points they gave for buying the HTC 10 directly from them is if you want to change carriers, you can just change SIM cards, but then the note about Sprint and Verizon - sounds like a different variant.
I do use Mobile Data on my tablet all the time. Undecided if I'll keep the mobile data plan after the contract is up in December. I do like not running my phone battery down as much since I use my tablet whenever possible for music, GPS, XDA, Facebook etc.

The KDZs and TOTs in my Android File Host section are in 7-Zip archives that you have to extract to use (and are therefore compressed).
I do that since it seems so few people check MD5 hashes, plus TOTs aren't already compressed like KDZs are, so you reasonably know that when you extract an archive that the file inside it is correct and intact.
In other words, did you compare sizes with the 7-Zip archive you downloaded or the KDZ you extracted from it?
In the end I believe the TOT and KDZ-flashing software checks the file to make sure it's both okay and is for the device you have connected, anyway.
You're welcome!

both compared are .KDZ, The proper named file I d/l from Team Codefire was already in .KDZ format when d/l. The "improper named" 10B .KDZ Im not sure where I d/l from nor do I remember if file was zipped or not. If it was zipped then I extracted .KDZ and deleted the zip because I can't find it in any of my G3 folders/files. So im not sure why the size difference :/ also i have a question about flashing 35B, I know this is not proper place but didnt want to start a whole new thread for 1 question. I want to update to LP and 33B FROM my 10B KK and I see these "notes" in threads everywhere but never a link to proper update procedure, This is what I keep seeing about not using flash method to go from LP to KK or you end up with no d/l mode or other bricks possibly. from the stock img thread by bwen diorD ---------> (((((((((((***Note, Do Not use the flash2 method to go from KK to L.
Partitions other than boot, system and modem need to be updated, otherwise, you will have no download mode, and other possible issues.
***A tutorial to install the Boot, Modem, and System, using @autoprimes "Flash2" method, can be found Here.
***Custom recovery "flashable zips" for boot and modem by @hsbadr can be found here.))))))))))So Im 10B rooted/bumped with TWRP 3.0..which route do I take from KK to LP?? Just more files to flash?? and which procedure???
Thanks in advance!

You can follow the directions in the OP of either @hsbadr 's JasmineROM 9.x, @HolyAngel 's SkyDragon 6.x or @xdabbeb 's VS985 v2.0, or what I say below for more detailed although technically optional information regarding the first two of those ROMs.
Flash either:
1. JasmineROM 9.0+9.1 and then the 35B bootstack after if you want almost completely stock 35B. Flashing the 35B bootstack after JasmineROM isn't mentioned in the JasmineROM OP and is actually optional, but encryptiona and Advanced/HD Calling won't work without it. If you choose not to flash the 35B bootstack after flashing JasmineROM, you should at least flash the 24B bootstack. SkyDragon 6.x is the exact same situation as JasmineROM 9.x.
You can use the debloat zip thread in my signature below on either of those two ROMs if you wish. I recommend flashing the debloat zip(s) before booting the ROM the first time. It'll make your first boot faster in addition to other things.
2. or flash the 35B bootstack first and then @xdabbeb 's excellent VS985 v2.0 ROM which I recommend. Even though I'm running 47A rooted debloated right now, his ROM is absolutely my favorite.
His ROM is very debloated, although there's some additional things I choose to remove via my debloat zips.

exactly what i was looking for to the T! thank you very much! I was MAKING SURE the 35B bootstack would flash all necessary files/img's needed to move from 10B KK to 35B LP without making a paper weight out of my phone lol. so 35B bootstack then xdabbeb rom then debloat, script....would you recommend full wipe or? before any of the flashes , and I assume all this flash with TWRP.
THANKS!! That was A LOT of help! I just did not know FOR SURE OR NOT if anything special had to done with partitions jumping from KK to LP

You're welcome! For such a large upgrade, from 10B to 35B, yes absolutely do a full wipe before flashing anything. I always do a full wipe, though. The built-in LG Backup does a bang up job for me for user apps, user data and limited system data - much faster than Titanium Backup.
You're welcome again!
Since I haven't seen any other threads on this topic, I figured I'd go ahead and get the ball rolling for anybody interesting in building a custom ROM. As the title suggests, this is a completely deodexed system image for the latest firmware update we recently received.
Just to clarify, this is a (mostly) stock base, and is intended to serve more as a foundation/starting point for anyone looking to build their own ROM.
I took the liberty to update all applications to their newest/current version and preinstalled busybox, which should save everyone a considerable amount of time and data. I also removed about a dozen or so apps that don't serve any beneficial purpose to the phone, but I will still include them in the download link for anybody that wants them for whatever reason.
You will obviously need to be rooted in order to flash this through recovery, so unfortunately if you are one of the unlucky souls that lost it with the update, you'll have to wait for a custom tot to surface before you can flash this.
I've been running this image for the last couple weeks or so and haven't encountered a single issue, but you should still make a backup of your current setup prior to flashing just to play it safe.
Nothing special needs to be done when flashing it, just the standard factory reset along with SuperSU and you should be good to go. If you have any questions, feel free to ask, and hopefully you like it!

hope this gets the ball rollin on ROMs. thanks so much! I have been having a few issues w/ the fluence patch..but not that many. but i know a custom made app for our phone would be way better. to get rid of all t-mo bloat.

I'm pretty sure it isn't flashable (correct me if I'm wrong) once it is flashable, I'll probably throw something together (TeamSPR ROM)

I may be wrong but this one sounds like an image. Am I correct ? There are stock folder based roms available that can be used as a base.

Where!?!
Does this Rom offers the new radios and other new stuff from 10D and would I be able to revert back to 10a without any issue like on the other methods?

Yes, for simplicitys sake I chose to use an image in the zip instead. Not knowing if anybody would even be interested in this, it seemed like the logical route to take. Though you might have found other ROMS that are directory based for our phone, I doubt you've found another that's already predeodexed for you. Its also extremely simple to extract this image into the filesystem that you're looking for, but not the other way around.

I'll download the ROM, debloat it, add SuperSU to the meta-inf and stuff then you can do those tweaks you were telling me about.

Flashed this yesterday and have had no issues since. Pretty solid. Thanks!
Got a question. So I'm rooted and on 10a. I can flash this without any problems? Can I use the twrp app or should I boot into recovery? Thanks.
