Root [ROM][UNOFFICIAL][4.4.4] DeCAF Cyanogenmod 11, Release 1

New update posted in op. Basically everything is working well except for DT2W and stock camera app video recording. Use Camu or something else for now until I track the problem down. Happy Holidays everyone.

Wasn't crashing with the zip I flashed from the g2, but icons were way too big because of dpi differences. Also fm radio isn't working for some reason, I'll look into it.

Would changing the phone dpi fix that?
Also, is this still KitKat, or is it Lollipop? O.o

Yeah this is KitKat,our best hope in my opinion of getting a camera AND video camera working nicely. Because it is kitkat it should be a bit easier(all relative mind you lol) to use stock libraries,etc... I really am pulling for these guys to get it done. I know it isnt an easy task. The camera/video issue has been a nagging issue since the first release of android 4.2 and has persisted across multiple devices since. For those not aware,this is NOT laziness or not being knowledgeable on OUR devs parts. This is an issue that goes all the way back to the sources they are working from. Not from their work. They use whats at hand. And if it has issues...it has issues.
 
Just tested this now, as you said @whoshotjr2006 FM radio does not work. But Youtube HD doesn't seem to work either, I don't get any options for 480p or higher in Youtube.


Things tested and working:
Downloads
Web Browser
Play Store
Youtube SD (360p or lower)
CM Stock Pictures (No green tint)
Texting

Things tested and not working:
Youtube HD (480p or higher)
CM Stock Video recording
FM Radio

Things not tested yet:
NFC
Calling
Anything not mentioned above

P.S. I'm on IRC at this moment, ##LG_VOLT on Freenode if anyone wants/needs a second tester to live chat with. Username is the same, ShapeShifter499

Is this backtracked from 1/12/15 build? Because after that my old volt wasn't working beyond. Could the new volt I have produce the same issue from before or no?

This is so overwhelming lol I don't even know anymore what to use as a daily driver. And in my opinion PAC-ROM will always be my personal favorite. But even though this little phone has some huge support, I'll try to help what I can. I'm looking into MIUI on my end just for kitkat though. But it will take some time with limited use of a PC.

This is the video that was posted like forever ago that has been the benchmark so far that I use to see if 480/hq YouTube is working:

ttps://youtu.be/N-1gzo3Pyvo

I had the option for 480p YouTube while viewing that video, and it even defaulted to it. 480 is all our volts can do in the way of hq video.

Sorry for the link being cut off above, just insert the leading h in front of it and it will take you to the video. Android forums embeds the video if I don't leave the leading h off the address.

Weird, that video got me 480p in the Youtube app but some videos do not give me the same 480p option when I know they have higher resolution when viewed on desktop.

For example this silly video (features Markiplier if you know who that is.) ttps://youtu.be/XTCV1M7GXOA 360p or lower is available in app on the Volt but I can easily go to 1080p on my laptop. So what gives?

EDIT: Is a codec missing?

It's hard telling. Maybe YouTube keeps multiple copies, one for desktop and one for mobile. Still doesn't explain why if you can go 1080p on desktop why you can't go to 480p on mobile. I really can't answer that one.

I know the absolute ceiling for YouTube videos on our volts is 480 like with the stock rom. It's something with our dpi and screen resolution, I think on my g stylo I can only go up to 720 YouTube with my bigger screen and slightly higher dpi.

Google may have the answer if your still interested in how mobile YouTube handles video resolutions.

Yes but on the stock rom the youtube app does 480p on every video I can find that has an hd option 480p or higher on desktop.
