U guys can open build.prop and add qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 at the end, save and reboot to enjoy navigation bar permanently disappear. If anybody know how to make capacitive button light appear please share. Cheers for this awesome rom guys! Big tks for the developer.
[LG Optimus G (International)] metal_god69:
After we flash the updated kernel for NFC and captivate buttons does it remove the on screen buttons thus bringing full screen? Or do we have to manually disable/remove?

Thanks for all the hard work houstonn
[LG Optimus G (International)] orellius:
You get the screen real-estate back automatically.

Thanks a bunch for the capacitive keys. Just came back from the 4.1.2 to this one for that only reason!

They do work. Just no LED's on them (no biggie, just mentioning it for anyone else).

I went flash happy and flashed the ROM then the update without first rebooting after the ROM. It did not work. I had to reboot to CWM and flash update. Worked fine.
[LG Optimus G (International)] ghekua:
Yeah we just install rom, reboot menu, battery icon then lets the phone boot successfully, then reboot to cwm and flash update. After that will be fine.
[LG Optimus G (International)] orellius:
Just wanted to point out that after flashing ROM and update all seems well except my camera and gallery do not work. They just just force close.

I'll have to try wiping and re flashing in a day or so to see if it works but for now a reboot and still no camera or gallery.
[LG Optimus G (International)] phoenix_rizzen:
Camera doesn't work here either.

Everything else appears to be good so far.
[LG Optimus G (International)] houstonn:
redownload and flash the zip again.. I've fixed the issue without backlights on the cap keys.. plus this is just temp till I get the full rom out..

also I just updated the kernel again and retuned the kernel for better display in aosp.. you'll notice the difference ..
[LG Optimus G (International)] geokilla:
I see that NFC is permanently enabled. Any way to disable it? Aside from possibly removing the App/Service in Titanium Backup.

Also we don't need Fast Dormancy anymore right?

Edit: I can confirm that Gallery and Camera doesn't work.. Can't get the Navigation buttons to disappear either, even with the build prop edit. Going to go to the ported LG JB tonight. Thanks for all the hard work though!
[LG Optimus G (International)] phoenix_rizzen:
First off, great work!

The new kernel update zip makes the Gallery app work. Can view photos without issues now.

However, the camera still doesn't work. :( App loads, but it's just a black screen with a camera icon, a blue circle, and a white circle.

This on an E971.
[LG Optimus G (International)] phoenix_rizzen:
You can unchecked NFC in Settings, which turns it off. Just tested that it toggles.

You have to reboot after adding the key to build.prop. Then the onscreen keys disappear.

The capacitive keys work correctly, although they still don't light up.

Two things I've noticed is missing from plain Android: Exchange ActiveSync support and an email app. I'm guessing these are not included in AOSP due to licensing issues?

Sent from my Optimus G (E971).
[LG Optimus G (International)] houstonn:
most likely this is how it's gonna be until I compile a complete rom altogether.. I can't just code everything in the kernel and it'll work along with the OS. all the kernel codes have been renamed to reflect geeb where it once was called mako before..
[LG Optimus G (International)] geokilla:
Ya I did try both of em. The NFC toggle itself is greyed out, and I already rebooted. Double checked I got the correct edit for build prop too. But it turns out it saved on a pre-existing line, and not another line. So the navigation keys are gone now. Still gonna flash the ported LG JB tonight though..
[LG Optimus G (International)] houstonn:
try renaming the lights.msm8960.so to lights.geeb.so that's what is compiled in the kernel.. and the zip adds the build.prop command to disable the onscreen keys so if you are manually adding it' , it'll be a double entry

I was gonna build a new whole complete rom but i'm helping ShoreDroid build you guys a completely new rom based on the latest google OTA so there' s no use making 2 roms.. he should have all my kernel mods merged and he's gonna fine tweak it so you guys should be set.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Mercath:
Working pretty well now, thanks. Just missing some LTE love!
[LG Optimus G (International)] houstonn:
the the backlight and camera if u having ISSUES

in /system/lib/hw look for camera.*.so and lights.*.so rename them both to lights.geeb.so camera.geeb.so

since I changed the naming scheme in the kernel it's calling for those files but they are named differently.. let me know how it works

otherwise i'll be free soon and put up another zip with all that corrected.. also I'll add a new kernel with some more display optimization
[LG Optimus G (International)] geokilla:
Went to /systerm/lib/hw/ and renamed camera.msm8960.so to camera.geeb.so and lights.msm8960.so to lights.geeb.so. Camera and Gallery still doesn't work. Neither does capacitive key lights, assuming that's what you mean by backlight.
[LG Optimus G (International)] houstonn:
im doing some testing right now.. what im gonna do is check out everything and make a proper one.. just been testing

please bare with me for a bit i'll have a wicked update ..
[LG Optimus G (International)] ATRIXXIRTA:
Any chance the wicked update will flash to a rogers e971 on latest (e) firmware? I'm curious why I am able to flash the jb leak with no issues, buy any aosp based ROM (this, cm10, aokp) required a kdz downgrade to ICS d firmware.

Anyone know why that is? Lol. I'm already rooted and freegee'd with an updated sk8 recovery. I don't want to downgrade, relock, then have to re-root and re-unlock bootloader..... Well, if I can avoid it, that would be great! Lol.

Anyway thanks anyone for answers, and thank you Houstonn for all your work. Bringing new life to this awesome phone!!
[LG Optimus G (International)] sunami88:
Just FYI my e971's camera and NFC don't work. The buttons do (though the lights don't- doesn't bug me a bit). Camera just freezes and eventually asks me to close. NFC is greyed out, but sometimes it has been selectable. Selecting it did nothing but grey it out again.

Seems you have two kernel links in the original article, eh. The main one near the top is ~6 megs, the one under the Show Content button is ~7 megs.

This ROM is stupid fast, thanks for your hard work!
[LG Optimus G (International)] kentek:
I was going to try it out but for all the gold at the end of the rainbow i cant find the rom i got the fix but im now lost in forumland with no map HELP

Thanks in advance kENTEk

[LG Optimus G (International)] houstonn:
sorry guys for the delay....

I've been so busy and also busy with tuning up cm10.1 together with chad on the cm10.1 project.. apparently everything that is coded with base aosp mako rom -we've changed most of the coding to reflect cm10.1 with the naming "geeb" and this causes problems without buiding a whole new rom.. I was waiting on Shoredroid to release an updated aosp instead of making another and having 2 typically of the same roms up.. I would suggest you guys do download the cm10.1 and give it a whirl.. I'll post my sources of git so you guys know what I've been working and tuning. thanks..

[LG Optimus G (International)] L1qu1d:
The Cap Keys work but no backlight? any1 have a fix? Or am I the only one?:S

I flashed from a custom 971 E firmaware not D.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Opacac:
There is no back light currently for the capacitive keys. Also I have a question, since this is on stock jelly bean, when the capacitive keys get introduced do some of the programs take advantage of that? Cause the third button is a menu key which is different from the software keys on jelly bean. The apps designed for jelly bean includes the menu key inside the program itself. When you disable the software keys and use the capacitive keys, do programs take advantage of that? Or are you still stuck with the menu button inside the app?
[LG Optimus G (International)] L1qu1d:
For any1 having problems playing .mkv files or videos in general use MX Player, and use HW+ Decoder. Go into settings and make sure the decoder uses H/W for video and S/W for audio.

No problems playing 1080p files :)

IF you use H/W it will play with no sound, if you use S/W it will play with sound but lag at times.
[LG Optimus G (International)] gabby131:
Hi!

I am counting on you guys! But can anyone let me know about what's bugged on this ROM? My searches in this thread are unclear. Please and thank you,

EDIT: Capacitive does note light up and NFC greyed out
[LG Optimus G (International)] L1qu1d:
NFC is buggy (at least for me)

LTE doesn't work (at least for me, I get only H+)

Cap Keys work if kernel is flashed, but no light.

Camera doesn't work

Gallery is iffy, but it works for me after I restarted phone.

Audio in stock video players don't work for me, I had to use MX Player for sound to work.

Calling people, when I call them it makes the hang up sound for a brief second before calling the person.

Thats it so far from testing good luck!
[LG Optimus G (International)] Kingofpower:
Hey houstonn, is it possible to make a ATT rom version 4.2.1 jellybean for e970 users?
[LG Optimus G (International)] tasty_boy:
im dying for that!!, would be awesome!!!!!
[LG Optimus G (International)] houstonn:
hey sorry guys I was working trying to get a build out soon.. it';s taking me time than I though.
[LG Optimus G (International)] L1qu1d:
Whats funny is NFC doesn't work, I even froze it with Titanium plus yet it occupies 59% of my battery life LMao:P

Can't wait for latest release.

Currently Using Cynamod Test5, lights work. I'm using Camera works. Also Lte...nfc still being a little annoying though! Again can't wait for houstonns release:)
[LG Optimus G (International)] houstonn:
if you guys want you guys can try out my CM10.1 as im working on a few projects right now..

>> DOWNLOAD HERE << & >> GAPPS HERE <<

it seems 4.2.2 brought out a lot of new code changes over 2800 lines of code....
[LG Optimus G (International)] SplitSnake:
I'd love to try out your CM 10.1, but is it working well and stable?
[LG Optimus G (International)] bryanlimy:
Is there any known bug?

I would love to test it

sent from my LG Optimus G E971 CM10.1 & Asus Nexus 7
[LG Optimus G (International)] SplitSnake:
Just tried to install houstonn's CM 10.1 and it's not booting for me. Just showing a blank screen after the LG logo.
[LG Optimus G (International)] houstonn:
fully wipe factory reset?

or try the earlier one

http://downloads.codefi.re/houstonn/lgog
[LG Optimus G (International)] ATRIXXIRTA:
Do we need to be downgraded to flash?
[LG Optimus G (International)] houstonn:
yes would need to be on the other kdz or tot..
[LG Optimus G (International)] SplitSnake:
I did do a full wipe, even formatted system. I came from the LG Stock 4.1.2.
[LG Optimus G (International)] ATRIXXIRTA:
I think you need to downgrade like myself. Same thing happens to me any time I they to flash any aosp ROM...
[LG Optimus G (International)] SplitSnake:
Ahh darn, so would the custom stock ROMs that houstonn uploaded work? Or would I really have to kdz?
[LG Optimus G (International)] ATRIXXIRTA:
Don't ask me why, but they work fine for me. At least his first release of stock 4.1.2 works for me.
[LG Optimus G (International)] SplitSnake:
Thanks, funny enough, I'm having a great deal of trouble trying to get to either houstonn's or chad's CM 10.1. I went to stock and flashed from there. Atrix, any tips?
[LG Optimus G (International)] ATRIXXIRTA:
Its the same for me. Only Houston's 4.1.2 stock leak based off the Korean model work for me. AOKP, CM10 or any aosp ROM won't boot on any canadian optimus if you are on lg's latest firmware update release. You apparently have to kdz downgrade, even if you unlocked the boot loader and rooted, and have flashed houstonns leak. Its weird I know. But something about LG'S update I think messed with something in the boot IMG. I dunno, I don't know enough, lol.
[LG Optimus G (International)] chadouming:
It's not the boot.img, boot img is flashed with every rom. Latest OTA bring a new RPM and TZ partitions which break compatibility.
[LG Optimus G (International)] L1qu1d:
I managed to upgrade from a custom version of E with no problems. Not sure that the reason is because it was custom, but everything seems to run fine with CM 10.1:)
[LG Optimus G (International)] billybest:
I think the problems come from OTAing to E.
[LG Optimus G (International)] taylorheaps:
umm capacitive keys dont work, and i flashed the file you linked. :/

[LG Optimus G (International)] chadouming:
Nope.
[LG Optimus G (International)] houstonn:
Hey guys I've been working on a build and wanted it to be as stable as possible..

I didn't want to make a new thread but if u guys want.. u can try it out here..

there's 2 releases today 1 was a normal one I was working on and the other has 2 kernel changes pertaining to wakelocks..

This rom is built like chad's cm10.1 it's strictly for Canadian phones.. all u have to do is be sure to be on the factory flash that works with aosp roms. and have it rooted and unlocked.. if u hang on boot just wait alittle longer. first boot takes awhile.. if not just reboot it on clear cache and dalvik and reboot..

U'll need to reboot manually once or twice once the rom boots up and settle in..

ROM 1

ROM with wakelock changes

GAPPS

all sources at my github here

I left the device name as Nexus 4 so that photosphere works.. and u should be able to lock on GPS instantly.

if you don't use NFC I suggest you turn it off then reboot as sometimes it sticks if u don't reboot.. thanks
[LG Optimus G (International)] mindstormsguy:
I might wanna follow this. You sure you don't wanna start a new thread?
[LG Optimus G (International)] arshad14:
I tried flashing this wrong, the second one with the wakelock fix, but after the LG Logo comes up and goes, it just stays stuck on a blank screen for a good 20-minutes. I was coming from the International version of LG 4.1.2 posted by houston. I did a full factory wipe, cache, dalvik, and even formatted system and data but still didn't work. Was anyone able to flash this ROM and have it work?
[LG Optimus G (International)] LNJ:
You have to KDZ back to original ICS not the newest OTA ICS first before flashing any CM or AOSP based roms.

LG Optimus G E971/3/5

Go here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2168345

"Rogers e971 Root issues boot/unlock downgrade brick repair look no further"

And follow steps for downgrading back to "D" firmware. It will format your SD card. So backup any ROMs, backups, apps or pics before you do anything. Good luck.

On another note. I flashed AOKP last night and it worked great. Then today I decided to switch to Houston's aosp release. But before I did, I flashed Houston's kernel with the capacitive key and NFC fix to AOKP. And it worked! Got my capacitive keys working on AOKP.

Weird thing is, the kernel fixes the cap keys, AND makes them light up. But no haptic feedback. On Houston's aosp release, it fixes the cap keys, but it doesn't make them light up. Its weird but the fix seems to work better on AOKP than the ROM it was meant for.
[LG Optimus G (International)] houstonn:
the aosp build is old it was build mako way with making namings and such.. the lights have since been renamed to lights.geeb.so and camera.geeb.so and the old way was lights.mako.so and camera.mako.so .. so we've changed a lot and the kernel as well dont' expect it to work till I do another one.. the rom new rom I've been working on doesn't have it's own thread yet is because it's not fully stable.. it suffers those wakelocks and deepsleep like the cm version ever since 4.2.2 was introduced.. I wanna keep on making changes and keep on testing. it seems we are not the only one with problems. the nexus 4 has a lot of issues too.. but they have since gotten new updates with their OTA . and since our code is based on the n4's aosp code mostly we will inhabit the same problems if not worst since we are not fortunate to get their hardware firmware updates as well..

it seems related mostly if u don't have your wifi on if I recall correctly.. with it on I seem to be running fine. so far lol for now I think my best suggestion is to boot up turn on wifi and turn off nfc and reboot

until we figure something more stable out.
[LG Optimus G (International)] kentek:
I added the detail of on each kdz file so there is no confusion as which file to use, that e971100d_00.kdz was not easy to find i had to check the korean forums to find it it took download them all addon for Firefox just to get it to download it was the only one i found

That captive key fix also fixed the proximity censor issue i was having as well
[LG Optimus G (International)] arshad14:
Houston's latest

Has anyone tried Houston's latest ROM as stated above? I am on his v3 of the Canadian 4.1.2 version but wanted to know if it would be worth upgrading to 4.2.1 by downgrading with KDZ D file and all that. Thanks in advance for your opinion and keep up the awesome work Houston :D:good:
[LG Optimus G (International)] Nokevah:
I haven't yet, been waiting for a full new build. I pray that Houstonn hasn't stopped development on this, IMHO it is, by far, the best ROM out there for the LGOG. Might just be me, but I hope he will find time to keep it going.
[LG Optimus G (International)] houstonn:
I've been quite busy working on a release.. you can have a preview here

and find the gapps here
[LG Optimus G (International)] vertsub:
Do we still have to flash your kernel on top?
[LG Optimus G (International)] Nokevah:
Thanks for the heads up =).

Not to sound ungrateful, but how stable is it? Your 4.2.1 has been absolutely rock solid, so I'm a bit spoiled now ;).
[LG Optimus G (International)] houstonn:
nope.. just flash rom flash gapps.. 11 hours.. with 7 hours deep sleep...

[LG Optimus G (International)] BMelz:
What version of lgog? Telus, bell, Rogers, Korean, sprint, AT&T.. Etc
[LG Optimus G (International)] mandroid717:
Sorry telus
[LG Optimus G (International)] Nokevah:
Just more info, I flashed onto a 973 from Bell, wifi settings were still saved after reboot, no issues so far.
[LG Optimus G (International)] metal_god69:
Amazing ROM so far Houston. One thing I noticed is that default governor is set to performance. Was wondering why it was sticking on 1512mhz but u changed to ondemand and set on boot.

One thing I can't seem to find is how to get rid of persistent search bar?
[LG Optimus G (International)] Nokevah:
Not sure about how to get rid of the persistent search bar, I use Nova Launcher which makes ridding yourself of anything much easier. Great job again Houston, loving the ROM. Almost disappointed that I just ordered a Nexus 4.
[LG Optimus G (International)] metal_god69:
Kernel is sticking at 384mhz for me on my e973. Making my phone really laggy.

[LG Optimus G (International)] Nokevah:
Also seeing this, thought it was just my imagination.

Possible workaround, I switched mine to "Performance", flipped on the "set on boot" and restarted and it seems to have lit the CPU up at least.

[LG Optimus G (International)] houstonn:
I'm not sure if he's been around or not.. but I would advise that installing one of the many 4.2.2 roms are better.. this rom still has a few issues and wasn't 100% completed yet.. I just stopped cause shorelinedroid said he was gonna do a pure google aosp in 4.2.2 . as for now I'm really tide up with the current ones i'm supporting..

Overall, the app seems much snappier, which is fantastic. However, the poor audio problems persist.
