Hi to all who read this . Please offer any help or suggestions .
First I've been flashing and testing roms on multiple devices for years but I have an ongoing Bluetooth issue with the car that has stumped me . My wife and I have two LS990 G3's . We bought a new nissan a year ago for her . Her stock rom would connect with the cars bluetooth and worked great . I eventually got around to rooting her device and installed 7.1.2 Nougat . After that we discovered her phone would connect with the car's BT but only as an audio device . At the time of start I had flashed Validus on it . So I pretty much exhausted every troubleshooting tip I could find . I also tried my own device and it was the same . Connects but no phone .
I then started trying every rom made for the LS990 with zero success . Both phones would still only connect as audio . Every wipe I tried was a clean wipe and flash . I explored every possible setting related to BT with no help . I then started trying older builds working my way back through nougat skipping a couple of weeks at a time . Still , the same exact problem .
I then stepped back to the end of Lollipop and discovered the same exact problem . I worked my way all the way back to the beginning of Lollipop without ever finding one build that would give me BT phone in her car . I then stepped back to the last builds of Marshmallow . Lo and behold they hooked up her cars' BT , and the phone works perfect So something must have happened from Marshmallow to Lollipop that changed the variables .
Some facts
I've tried CM , Validus , Tesla , Tipsy , Vanir , Lineage , Crdroid and every other rom I could find , Every MM I've tried from every rom team does work perfect . Every rom from every team from Lollipop to Thru Nougat does not work .
I am convinced it's not the devices as stock roms and MM rom's work .
I don't know if it's her car's BT that just doesn't like something about BT in L and N roms so I can't blame the device trees that most of the rom builders tap from (CM , Lineage etc ).
I've posted a few times in the past asking about this but never received a reply . I've asked other LS990 users to at least chime in if their's works properly so I could determine if it's only us which would make the car suspect in my eyes but no one ever confirms whether they do or do not have this issue .
So today I'm asking for any help or confirmations from any other LS990 users if you have or don't have this same issue that she and I are experiencing . I'm forced to keep her on Marshmallow until something breaks .
I see people post problems on here asking for help without providing much info and they gets replies like " more details please " I think I've pretty much provided everything without typing a whole chapter and believe me I could write a book on this LoL . I would really like to figure out what is going on with this .
If you have read this far I appreciate it and welcome any and all replies . Thanks
I wish I could help . Maybe one good citizen will eventually come along with an answer .

Am I missing it or are there instructions to root and instructions for multi-boot but no ROM for the LG G Vista, please?
I've searched and read through a bunch of threads but nada ... so far.
Will any of the ROMs for other LG G-series phones work?
Thanks!
Wait ... I just looked in About phone and it says this is a VS880.
I just got this from Verizon.
I'm seeing the VS880 referred to as a G2 and a G3 on the Internet - what is it really, please?
It came with Android 4.4.2, kernel version 3.4.0+, and our son rooted it for me earlier today.
Just in case any of those details help ...

They are the same thing. One is the internal name while the other is normal users name of the device. As for roms make sure to do your reading up as the device is pretty locked down.
So, you are saying that there is no ROM anywhere for the LG G Vista/VS880?
Is there any reason to believe that anyone is actively developing one?
There are so many sites touting Rooting as a pathway to loading a ROM it seems odd there there is not one.

It takes more then root. You need an u locked bootloader or a way to bypass a locked bootloader like safestrap or bump. Most developers that make roms only make them for devices they own.
The bootloader bypass has been solved:
http://www.unlock-bootloader.info/mp3-0/lg-g-vista-6569.html
The LG G Vista/VX880 is "free" on Verizon with the $16/mo Edge data plan & has a nice big display.
I have my Samsung Tab4 7" tablet for sale as I don't need it now that I have the LG G Vista/VX880.
There are ROMs for the models all around the LG G Vista/VX880 - it's hard to believe that LG made that phone so radically different from the others that tweaking an existing ROM to port it would be beyond a developer.
Sure wish I had the skills ... sigh.
It's not really that. It's most developers seldom do ports. Let alone for devices that don't have. After looking at the spec is not a bad mid range device. But also remember that. Most carriers in the world are GSM carriers and very few work on cdma devices.
There are plenty of Tuts on how to port. Could be something you could look into

Modified request: Is there an app/hack that strips-out all of the Google stuff, especially their backdoors & data-leeching?
If no one is going to build a custom mod - which seems apparent - it sure would be good to have a clean machine onto which to then install carefully selected apps.
Thanks!

Simple answer is no. You would have to build a rom from source and then remove alot of the Google based code. There is a project that is working on it but you lose alot of functionality.

Cannot the functionality be restored via privacy-respecting alternative apps?
What about an app that monitors the bad behavior of the Google code than cannot be removed and blocks execution of data-leeching & activity monitoring?

Not completely no. Many have been trying over the years. Your biggest issue is the device your using. Once that is taken care of you can try and build something but like I said alot of the stuff is built directly into the os.
To be honest privacy is an illusion at best now a days. Every thing monitors what you do. From credit cards to social net networking. It is all made to get as much info as it can about a person. Even carriers do it. It has even come to light that Verizon can monitor the apps installed on a device.

I just re-flashed my VX880 last night to stock 5.1.1.
I can give some pointers that I had to work through if you have any questions, or have not gotten any help since last November.
I have spent many hours looking .

Many Many hours wasted on Google,Bing,ect. I haven't found anything. I have seen where some people refer to this as the same as a G2 And others but it's clearly not. But yeah wish someone would put something out. Agreed. I have however figured out how to get Viper4Android and Dolby Atmos to work. So if anyone is interested in knowing how that's done hit me up. All you have to have is root. NO custom recovery. Haven't seen a post on how to do that either? I still have 8 more to go before I can post lol.

Where did you get the rom? Do you have a copy I can get?
Well i bought mi redmi note 3 kenzo in sort of thinking that it must posses some high level dev activities,but now i am thinking that i proved wrong,even after 4 months of launching this device ,it yet not get official cm support or any stable cm rom .every time when i open rn3 thread found every build has lot of bugs like
1.mic and speaker error
2.earphone bug
3.bt mac and other mac address diff.
4.unstable rils like wifi as reported by testers
5.camera fc errors
6.different fing. Sen. Remain unrecog.
7.proximity sensor error
8.sim related issues like volte and sim switch problems
9.battery bug
10.min. Brightness bug in rr latest 2-07-2016 build
11.and many others like media codecs bug,mtp transfer file bug
12.low quality camera
Even after this devs release them as stable daily driving . Why its development is too slow even at this earlier stage ?????
I dont know what will happen later on.... With this device
Never seen such issues in prior mi devices or other released phones .
Even mi devs seems less interested in this device (thats why they released miui 8 on 5.1 rather than 6.0.1)
After a big positive responses in sales of this device from buyers ,why they seems drawing back supports for global ones,even after being global one co. ,it remains stucked majorly with chinese .at least they should take care of indian market which warmly accepted and reposed in xiaomi .

There are many [unoffical/official]roms as of now , that are stable on 6.0.1 . Flash the roms yourself and then try it . Dont make decisions on the comments/replies on the tread itself . Building a stable rom is very time consuming and CM maintains roms of more than 1000+ devices , please wait until they decide to make it stable .

I am running Krexus BUILD-3 and I have none of the above bugs. Everything is running perfectly. Before, I was on Krexus BUILD-1 and even that was very stable, beside the Mobile Network FC bug.
Just want to ask if it still locks bootloader if we flash any cm13 or cm13 based roms? Or even aosp roms? This is the reason I am uet to flash any custom rom.

One more vote for Mokee!
Just try it yourself.
You never know if you not try these ROMs.

This is old thread
CM13 snapshot by thestrix is the best imo...
Nexus Experience is cool too + ressurrection remix

Flash custom ROM
Video with links to files, and other hopefully useful info. FOR A SOLUTION!
I had a really long post with useful info containing an answer maybe not "the answer" Wanted me to instead post a comment.. Below are the instructions on how to do it according to a Youtube Video I found. While I haven't tried this method, It looks sound to me, they've included all the files needed in a link to MEGA. I'll re-share without the password / decryption key if the poster agrees only.. I do highly suggest Phoenix ROM if you're on a kltevze, it come included with eveyrthing you're looking for and I've used it before In fact, I tried it last night but was unable to get into my phone past the boot password screen I think because the system ui kept crashing. while I have used this version, I may try twelve, since I prefer AOSP or LOS based roms, I want as light as possible maybe even removing google and going with MICRO G which I used fairly successfully for over a month, It isn't perfect, sometimes the location addon apps crash, but there are many, and it may just be that the ones I was using crashed, and not the ones you need yourself.. But MICRO G is worth the piece of mind to me coming from an encrypted phone, No I have nothing to hide really but Alphabet/Google already know enough about me through the use of their "FREE and Very Handy I might add, Services Ahem) By the way, Phoenix can be used with either an unlocked bootloader or safestrap if not.. Just get the right one.. I may end up going with a rooted deodexed TW rom, and add xposed to get the features I love from RR and other LOS based ROMS. With further ado, heres the link to the youtube instructional video I found, I really wish it was written out or could simple installed as a flashable zip which shouldn't be hard to make, but it is what it is for now.. And again seems correct to me if you don't want o go with a custom rom like Phoenix for kltevzw.
Well upon testing the Youtube link didn't play so here it is both Title for searching and another link. Install Galaxy S7 Touchwiz on S5! (Marshmallow) /URL]

I used Heimdal to flash to a more recent factory TW before flashing Phoenix which requires at least PB1. I think. Check their OP under user JKRUSE or near the top of the VZE dev thread.
This is Heimdal as found in synaptic from a buntu based distroand should be the same in any Debian based or any other distro for that matter as I've found it in many repos for different distro's, I think a ppa is available with newer builds, but don't hold me to that.
Heimdall <- commandline version.
Heimdall is a tool for flashing firmware (aka ROMs) onto Samsung Galaxy S
devices over a USB connection. It accomplishes this using the same
protocol as Odin, Samsung's internal Windows-only firmware updater.

If I do either agian soon, I'll report back with results. Again, I know Phoenix worked fine. But I'd imagine a plain TW rooted ROM that you debloat yourself and maybe add Xposed for many features found in Phoenix and in AOSP/LOS based ROM's such as RR/CR-DROID for those who prefer additional tweaking and other enhancements. Again I trouble just last night with the latest V15 of Phoenix on boot and don't know why other than my fully ecnypted device and password on boot feature But either way again if you test before me let me know the result as well. I do need a new battery for mine since it's the one it came with but that's a story for another thread, when I bought my S5 last spring for beans, (with the unlockable BL, I had to have it since my S3 had died. and I couldn't afford a new phone) and I could easily get a day plus when service is good with about 4+ hours SOT. But lately I'm using charging by the end of the day. Haven't decided yet on a stock Sammy battery or a more expesive, Thicker, heavier, but much longer lasting extended battery.
Sorry for such a long winded post. All my posts are this way if you know me. I do apologize and need to be more brief but I'm more of a lurker and searcher for what I need to know and post very seldom especially with this much what I think could be useful to someone.
If it happens to be useful please hit the "Thankss" button, it could help here, and even when looking for a job as I am... Hahahaha.. Getting laid off work blows in my area of the country.
Thanks and Happy New Year to all those who celebrate it during this time of year, if not Happy New Year when it arrives and I wish the best for everyone on the Planet. Stay informed and don't believe everything you read/hear/watch... #NoAgenda #ITM.

it's not all about stability and "yeeaa, this rom has everything working", we try new roms and live new experience, when you install a Nogut Rom on your old phone and you taste the Nogut flavour on a phone that was dumped years ago from its company, that is cool, plus new Android comes with newer security patches, so more higher is more safer, not all new roms have these bugs, and even if they do they get fixed in the future, same as when a company releases a buggy update for one of its phones, it gets fixed in a newer one
Guys, what happened to our device development?? I think its dead now due to low end mobility!! I am reverting my moto e (condor) to back to lollipop.. While am trying different lollipop custom roms i found major problem is that my phone is going to boot loop while installing apps like WhatsApp, telegram etc. I don't know why my phone is going to boot loop.. Any one has any suggestions please tell me it is only choice for me to use android lollipop custom rom ...
If anyone had fully stable lollipop custom rom please tell me fast... Am waiting !!!
Please send fully stable lollipop custom rom link so that i can download it ...
Guy, don't expect a fast answer on such a low end and old device forum, can't you wait more than 2 minutes? ...
I have this device, and the most stable ROM I'd find is AOSPB (based on Android 6.0), the adaptive storage works fine but didn't test Wi-Fi nor Bluetooth as my phone has the Wi-Fi IC and BT antenna damaged.
Just look for AOSPB on the development section, it should work fine!
