I recently installed the JellyBelly ROM v.3 (CM10) on my EVO Shift. I really appreciate the work that the devs are doing on this ROM. I am posting some bugs I encountered after running the ROM for a day. I hope this info helps make the ROM more stable and polished for the entire community. This is my way of giving back right now. Thanks for all the hard work guys!
Green Box During Boot Screen Bug - During boot the HTC screen with white background is displayed for a few seconds, then the boot animation appears. During the transition between the HTC screen and boot animation you can see the HTC screen turns into a green box and fills the upper 30% of the display for a second or two prior to the boot animation starting. This is not a critical bug, yet it may point to a larger underlying video issue in the system. If nothing else, it could give a poor first impression about the ROM quality due to graphic glitches.
Random Screen Freeze/SOD Bug - For no apparent reason the device would lock up and refuse to respond to touch input or pressing the power button. I was forced to remove the battery several times in order to reboot the device. I was unable to establish exactly what caused the lock up, but I was curious if the CPU settings and clock settings might be to blame?
Camera Green Line Bug - After I took a couple pictures I reviewed them in the Gallery app. I immediately noticed that my pictures all had a green line down the left side. I thought that perhaps the stock Camera app was to blame so I installed CameraZoom, a third party camera app as a replacement to the stock Camera app. The result was that the entire upper half of the images taken with CameraZoom app were solid green. I'm not sure if the driver or the app is to blame for this experience.
Facebook App Crash Bug - The Facebook app refused to launch without crashing for me.
I want to run this ROM as my primary ROM, but these issues, except for the Boot Screen Bug, are show stoppers for me. Keep up the great work. I look forward to version 4!
The boot animation thing happens even when there is no boot animation... All the others I have fixed except Facebook, working on that at the moment. Once that is fixed v4 will be up... Facebook seems to be taking up way more RAM than it should The camera line is caused by the 4.2 camera, I took it out and replaced it with 4.1 camera. BTW I got your message, but was unable to respond to it.
Been running this since V2 came out and have seen your issues as well. When the screen locks up I just wait for a minute or so and the current app stops and doesn't require battery pull. Can't wait for those fixes.

Thanks for the info. What was causing the phone to stop responding to input and how did you fix it? Also, do you have a complete list of outstanding bugs that have been reported so far?

Actually you got all the bugs reported except Netflix... I got Facebook working, but now wifi won't turn on
The main issue with JB on the Shift IMO is RAM dispersion, which is mainly what I am working on.
Great info! Also meant to ask, why are there two flashlight applications installed? Why is Flipboard installed by default? Seems like Flipboard is kind of an odd default app.
Because it is a work in progress (I was testing them and forgot to remove one), and flipboard works better than Facebook

Yes, but you'll soon have those issues fixed I'm sure. Looking forward to v4.

Got Facebook fixed, but I don't like how much performance I am having to give up to keep it from crashing... I'm hoping there is a perfect median, I just haven't found it yet. I have noticed quite a bit of difference between launchers also. This is my first dive into JB, so it's been a learning process. Got one more thing to try tonight.
I have had issues with the keyboard. on V3 Im not sure how it will work out with the V4. In most cases i would have to hold the . Shift button instead of just tapping it one to cap a letter. and then it resumes to lower case letters. ive also had to Hold FN to Create symbols instead of tapping just once. to make that symbol. over all it is a great rom i do have by far great expectations of it . i will re-flash once. some of those kinks are out such as the green line on the photos. as far as 4g goes i can careless about it considering the fact that i have no 4g in my local area .
As far as FB Goes i never use it ( Its a relationship killer ) xD
None the less keep up the great work on Deving the Rom .
I look forward to future updates. and maybe a keyboard fix. where it was like originally having it .
( Also random Closing of the browser . Ive had a few on V3 . But as i said im not sure what V4 will have in store for me. )
v4 is up and most of said bugs have been eliminated:sly:
You can post any v4 issues here if you change the title of the thread.
Anyone having the same issue and have found a solution?
Phone suddenly stuck at some instances even with non-extensive usage.
Yesterday I was only using Facebook app. When messenger bubble pop up, my phone suddenly spiked. Moved once and then it got stuck already. You'll notice that it's not Facebook app only that's not functioning since nav. buttons are also stuck. You can't go press home and clear recent apps/hibernate apps. Power and volume buttons are also not functional.
So I assume the main system crashed. I only did a long press on power button to restart.
I installed Franco kernel r73, and thought that issue would only occur with stock kernel.
However, it occurred again today, I was viewing photos in Stock Photos app. I haven't started viewing the first 10 images yet, so memory should not be consuming that much. I turned on the auto rotate to view the image larger. When I turned the phone landscape, it reacted like it's about to rotate. And suddenly it got stuck. This time, power button is functional. It turns the screen on and off but it still turns to the same stuck screen, not the lock screen.
I've been experiencing this since 5.0.1. and almost everyday since I updated to 5.1.
I'm not sure if this is a hardware issue on my unit since mine is already about 1 year and a half old. I don't want to buy another phone yet!
Or is this a common issue nowadays due to Lollipop upgrade. If so, then could you provide temporary fix before they update this on 5.1.1.
Thanks a lot!
I had something similar . When I put forward the curtain hangs notice and then everything worked fine
Meh
I've seen this behavior on my Nexus 5 only on 5.1, and I'm pretty sure, it was introduced with that specific lollibug version. It's really annoying, that you have to reboot the phone every two or three days to avoid the freezes.
There's already in issue for that, it has got the ID 161032.
After the last update (somewhere in the first or second week of november), first, the keyboard when you switch from landscape to portrait I can only see a half of it, like its stuck in landscape mode. Second, the notification bar is too out of screen a little bit. The screenshots are at the end of this post. I am a simple android user, just calls emails and text stuff, dont bother tweaking it too much after having my share of hassles with previous androids Ive had over the years.

Hi guys,
I have a lumia 640 running windows 10 creators update. Since i came to creators update, whenever i open youtube and watch something, the screen starts to flicker crazily (more frequently if the volume button is pressed and the volume display pops in or when i slide in the notification bar while the video is running). This happens only in landscape mode and not in portrait. changing to portrait when the screen flickers immediately stops the flickering.
I have tried hard resetting.
This happens only in edge browser, and not through any other app when accessing youtube.
I dont think i can uninstall EDGE browser by doing the 100 year trick can I? and reinstall it when i do a hard reset.?
I then updated the software to the latest insider build in fast ring to see if it helps, but the issue still persists.
The one solution i have is to use the WDRT to flash my hone back to stock firmware which is WP8.1, but MSFT has stopped giving WP10 updates via upgrade advisor recently this year, so i would not like to be stuck at wp8.1.
Is there a way to go back to any previous build of WP 10 and not WP8.1 (in which my phone came originally). I also checked in Lumiafirmware.com which has only wp8.1 firmware for my phone.
Please help. I could only find Project astoria firmware files for running WP10 in my phone but since its shut down, i dont know if i can come back to the Creators update of WP10.
Currently downloading on Tmoble

Finally! I'm downloading as well, T-Mobile
Got mine to...
Downloading it now.
Honestly the most disappointing os upgrade ive ever seen. Reminds me why i dont use an lg as a daily driver any more.
If nothing else, the new Android 11 upgrade does enable Stand-Alone 5G (per the T-Mobile website). That, in itself, is probably worth the upgrade!

Unfortunately, w/the V60, 5G SA was not enabled in the software on Android 10 - even with the R15 SIM. Glad I'm now able to share the true 5G experience you've been enjoying!

Hmm, i had even confirmed it with several signal apps that it was SA, and even had SA speeds. I moved on to oneplus now and just use my v60 for media casting.

No upgrade here in Europe for Sim free.
It is available for AT&T as well. I had to manually check for updates, then it started downloading. It didn't tell me how large the update was or any changes, so I had no idea if it was the Android 11 update or a security update until it finished the update.
I've ran the update and can confirm it is Android 11.
A few things I've immediately noticed based off of MY experiences on Android 10,
The performance was laggy on first boot (expected after a software upgrade), but has since smoothed out and seems overall faster than Android 10, but that could just be due to the improved gesture navigation; more on that below.
The gesture navigation controls are much more reliable, animations are smoother, and functionality less glitchy.
This improvement is very noticeable when quick switching apps by swiping left/right on the gesture bar:
Sometimes it would skip 2 apps back and jump forward to the correct (previous) app
Animate to the previous app but snap back to the current app
Simply not register the gesture at all
I haven't experienced any of these again yet.
The recent apps screen scrolls MUCH smoother as well.
Speaking of gesture controls, it now "floats" above the rest of the apps similar to iOS instead of having it's own dedicated nav bar and the gesture "pill" itself (not really a pill on this phone lol) is slightly bigger. You can see the difference in my first 2 screenshots
EDIT: The gesture pill still has it's own bar at the bottom, but it appears that its background is able to color match with the opened app (similar to the notification bar) which makes it look like it's sitting on top of the opened app.
The notification shade has a UI update. Looks better IMO.
If you use the stock LG launcher, the swipe down search tool loads faster, but there's still a noticeable delay before you can type anything
You can also change the "accent" color. My accent color is blue in my first screenshot, but it changed to green after the 11 update. You can change the color in the settings.
Taking screenshots is instant. No more holding down the key combo for a second.
There's emoji updates
There is a minor update to the blank contact image (see previous screenshot).
I saw some changelogs online that mentioned some camera app UI updates...it doesn't look any different to me??
And of course the FB Messenger style chat bubbles are now supported for other apps including the stock LG Messaging app.
Andoird 11 update has been horrible. Battery that prior to update lasted all day, now lasts 5-6 hours, phone runs hot, and WiFi AND 5G symbols are BOTH always on.
This might be the end of the line for me with LG.
Any news about the Canadian version?
I'm on AT&T and updated to Android 11 earlier this week. It resulted in a black screen soft-brick. I could still see the touches (from dev mode) where fingers tapped the screen. And if I held down the Power button, I'd see the typical Power Down / Restart / Etc. options, and tapping on them would generate the appropriate responses. But in all other instances, it was just a black screen. I figured my HEAVY de-bloating of Android 10 when I first got the phone caused something to break.
So I went ahead and did a full factory restore using recovery/safe mode and set it up as a new phone, and haven't had any serious issues since. I went ahead and got almost everything (minus Fluid Navigation Gestures, RIP) working the way I wanted, and embarked on another HEAVY de-bloating process. Seems like I took things too far, because, upon my next reboot, I was in the exact same black screen soft-brick state I mentioned above.
Another factory reset. Another session of restoring my apps, launcher, settings, and customizations. This time, I just used Package Disabler Pro for LG from the Google Play Store to perform some more restrained bloatware disabling, and everything's been pretty great. For Android 10 and the first attempt at de-bloating Android 11, I was using ADB commands to "uninstall" dozens upon dozens of system apps. Battery life is not quite as good as it was with my heavily de-bloated Android 10 environment, but I didn't expect it to be, and I'm not going to risk messing this all up again.
My only complaint is that stock AOD (and Sidelight Notifications) don't seem to be working properly, no matter how I configure them in Settings. I'm not sure what's causing the issue, but I actually developed this problem just a few days BEFORE the AT&T OTA landed, and it's persisted through a full Android point upgrade and two factory resets, so I imagine there's a conflict somewhere. Maybe with Fluid Simulation - Trippy Stress Reliever (my live wallpaper app of choice), Energy Bar, or Nova Launcher. I haven't been able to pinpoint it yet, but since it predates the Android 11 OTA by a few days, there must be another cause.
I do miss Fluid Navigation Gestures, but I'm happy to report that the new Android 11 gestures are way better than Android 10's. Not quite as customized as I had FNG, but I've adapted. Until/unless someone figures out how to hide the navigation bar without root, LG's gestures it is, I guess.
First thing I noticed was that I can now set a minimum brightness from the navigation bar .... This is a huge improvement as before the brightness would go to zero in a dark room... Now I can choose how low I want it to go and still automatically increase when needed ..
Finally SIM free in Europe got the Android 11 update.

There is a thread on reddit saying that this is the result of fingerprint locking. Try with pin unlock instead and see if battery life improves.

Kindly can you extract us the KDZ file from your phone and share it here?
Otherwise can you share here all apk files for LG V60 after android 11 update?
Thnx n Adv.
