@Guf This is an exciting port, the lg g6 is a great phone. Any chance this would work with an h871?
-
@dieharddan I have no idea what the difference between the two is! is it EU or US model?
Anyway I can try to help you, if you want.
You can adapt your port accordingly with my sources.
@tanevanwifferen and @rymdllama are on it. -
@dieharddan Lg g6 model numbers variants in this (article)[https://www.teamandroid.com/2017/04/15/lg-g6-model-numbers-variants/]
if you want to port it, and you have telegram, you can join us on a little group I just created -
yes it is a us version, I don't have one anymore but would repurchase to try it out at some point
-
@Guf maybe that helps you.
It seems like its nearly the same.I have hoped a long time for the Xperia X port. After it got abandoned I was quite disappointed, but this port seems quite exiting.

@Guf said in Ubuntu Touch on LG G6 (h870 model): call for testers:
Annoying flooding of errors in dmesg with the following message: "IPC_RTR: msm_ipc_router_bind: pm-service Do not have permissions" . It unfortunately drains battery
Hi i have ported LG V20, same hardware and manifacture. for this error
Annoying flooding of errors in dmesg with the following message: "IPC_RTR: msm_ipc_router_bind: pm-service Do not have permissions" . It unfortunately drains batteryDidi you added SECURITY_ANDROID_GID_CAPABILITIES in your kernel ?

@makeixo @walidham Fixed! I applied the patch for bullhead which suggested the same: to disable CONFIG_ANDROID_PARANOID and to enable SECURITY_ANDROID_GID_CAPABILITIES, but I hadn't done it well. With the help of @tanevanwifferen (who suggested what was wrong), we fixed it ... so let's go for other issues, now

You might want to use the list at then end of this page: https://pad.ubports.com/p/PortChecklist to give a detailed and standardized overview of whats working and whats not
-
@Guf I haven't done anything. I am just lurking. I am more like a fan.
-
@Guf Can you explain what was wrong? I'm facing the same flood problem on the different device (but it is based on the same qcom platform). I applied patch and it doesn't help
-
@vadikas the patch is 1 in a set of 3, and all 3 must be done to make it work I think. @Guf had the two others already. The three changes are listed at the bottom of this page:

Well that's great! I know I'm a little late to the party. But I am interested in giving this a shot. @Guf @tanevanwifferen, although, I have the h872 and I bet that this little difference makes it incompatable. Is this true?
-
@Guf Would love to test it on my h870, do you need to have an unlock bootloader?
-
Hello everyone ! I'm new to the UBPorts community, so i was about to get a new phone in the next days to run Ubuntu. But fortunately i've got a LG G6 at home ! But, the model version is H870s, so with no unlockable bootloader... I think it's a problem, right ?!
Everyway, keep going on this port, LG G6 is an Amazing phone ! -
I got the American version with a cracked screen but I’d be willing to contribute to the cause. It’s currently with Verizon locked. If I get it unlocked will I be able to test it on that? It’s got a cracked screen so the risk to reward ratio is favorable. I’ve never done this before so I have no clue how to start.
-
I also have a US version (VS988), and am new here. I'm not sure if I can test this port on my phone, or if they're different enough it's going to have to be a different port.
-
I have a US model LG G6 somewhere that my wife upgrade from recently, would love to help test. Only other phone I have that can boot Ubuntu is a Nexus 4

Hi, i've got an h870 model.
I've been trying to to put the image on my phone but i can't seem to pass the part with resize2fs from the halium-install script. Any help?
The error i keep getting is:
"Scanning inode table resize2fs: No space left on device while trying to resize system-20200326.img" -
@MexHH Yep, you need to do it, with the following command:
fastboot flash unlock unlock.binwhereunlock.binis you unlocking file that you will be provided by requesting tohttp://mobile.developer.lge.com/ -
@fenskebawb Yep, it might have some little differences (that I am not able to test because I don't have that device). Anyway you can try to build it yourself and we will help you
