You take donations?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dbjungle:
Can't wait to load it. Thank you for your efforts.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] wakko222:
Still no GPS.

I wiped everything except external sdcard. Installed latest rom. Wiped caches and did another factory reset. Still no GPS.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dbgeek:
So, if we still don't have GPS with 4/8 version does that mean that our GPS is screwed up and we need to LGNPST to stock to get it working properly?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dbjungle:
Where are you downloading the 4/8 version from?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] iffatall:
There is a page two in the ROM list.

Although GPS is not fixed for everyone. It is merely in the same stage as March builds, according to Shelnutt2.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Shelnutt2:
Okay guys, there is no nightly for tonight, as we are in the process or moving to a new kernel and common code base. For the new kernel, everyone must be on the jellybean ota. We are working on a solution to get you the updated partitions from the ota safetly, but for the time being, you mgiht just want to go to the ota, then back to the 0408 build while we gets things fixed up.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mrpanic7:
Thank you for your hard work!
[AT&T LG Optimus G] wakko222:
New OTA

First I wanted to say thank you also. Just in case anyone wanted to know - I used LGNPST to restore my phone to stock and then update my phone to the OTA Jelly Bean that AT&T put out last week. Yesterday, I re-rooted :silly: and the phone rooted with no problems. Then I used FreeGee to unlock the bootloader and install TWRP. I hadn't seen anyone mention on this forum that this was still working after the OTA update. (The emoticon in the middle was insisted on by my 4 y/o girl!)
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dbgeek:
Will flashing the 800MB JB rom do the job, or do we literally need to lgnpst to stock, get the OTA and then reroot & unlock?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] :
You need the ota for now because of the new tz partition until someone release a tz flashable
[AT&T LG Optimus G] pfoxdizzle:
So how is this going to work with TWO cm10.1 Roms in the wild now? Are y'all going to merge or is his going to stay up until yours is fully functional?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] :
They should merge. Chad and Shelnnut already work together, so that would help a lot.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] gunnyman:
I agree, not to mention, the build has a better shot at becoming "official"
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Shelnutt2:
New build is up, all builds from 0410 and after require you to be on the jb ota or have used the jb bin in lgnpst. Besides the call timer bug related to jb modem all should be working in this build.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dbjungle:
What the devs here are able to do is amazing.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] pfoxdizzle:
So I had to reflash my efs partition when I changed to this build. Had all kinds of screen problems

---------- Post added at 11:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 AM ----------

Any way we can get Wheatley governor or itellidemand in your kernel?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Snow_fox:
Almost official? :D
[AT&T LG Optimus G] wakko222:
I seem to have lost the 5GHz band on my WiFi with the latest update.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Jank4AU:
If you pull the wifi folder from your last ROM and paste it in over the new one, it should come back. You can pull it from /system/etc...worked for me.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] HyDRo1X:
So I never lgnpst back to stock I just flashed at&t jb 4.1.2 from a previous build of this, can I reflash the new build for cm without having to lgnpst? Like flash cm from my stock 4.1.2 slickjb rom?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] :
Read the OP. It requires the new OTA or LGNPST. It relies on the new TZ, and those are the only ways to acquire it.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Murasakiii:
To be fair, hardly anyone reads threads thoroughly anymore. Probably best to put "need to be on OTA" in size 72, big red letters.

Although there's a pretty large notice on houstonn's ROM thread and people still skim over it. :c
[AT&T LG Optimus G] nymica:
To be fair, if someone can't be bothered to read thoroughly especially when flashing, then they kind of deserve to own a brick or two...
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dandrumheller:
To paraphrase someone (I think it might have been Entropy512 but I'm not certain) over on the i777 forums: "The best place to hide information is the OP of an XDA thread" :silly:
[AT&T LG Optimus G] HyDRo1X:
Actually I did read but I don't know that much so Idk if the at&t slickjb rom has what ever is needed
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Jank4AU:
If you didn't receive the OTA or LGNPST the official AT&T JB .tot, you won't be able to run this. AT&T finally updated their TZ to match most of the rest of the LGOG models and the only way to get it is either of those methods.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dbgeek:
Read the OP, it's almost exactly what you suggest (yeah, the font isn't 72, but is 40 font vs 72 the reason that people are still asking?).
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Bracemg:
My apologies for my ignorance, but can someone direct me to instructions for where to find this LGNPST and how to flash it? I'm coming from CFX v19. Thank you so much.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] HyDRo1X:
How do you obtain all the necessary files and programs to lgnpst back to stock, everyone has a tutorial with no damn download links
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dbjungle:
There are also several helpful people on the IRC.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] gunnyman:
There won't be download links due to lgnpst being copyrighted software.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] HyDRo1X:
So how do I get it
[AT&T LG Optimus G] bassitone:
...really? I just posted the instructions on how to find it... in the post directly above yours.

We can't post these things here, but people on IRC will help you out.

If you can't take the simple step to help yourself, why should we?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dbgeek:
To be fair.... You comment was only posted 24 minutes before his :D
[AT&T LG Optimus G] ChefAnt:
What id like to find out. Is when we will be able to have a uniform flashing procedure. Instead of having 14 ways to flash a ROM. There needs to be some uniformity in this forum and I believe the mods need to clean up the ATT Lgog forum. Regardless of if people read the OP or not. Everyone here knows that probably more than half of the people who download from XDA A. does not read OP and instructions and B. Is not a member of the forum until something goes wrong...
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Clark Joseph Kent:
I understand your thoughts, there are a few different roads to get there....some use the high road some use the low road. But you are correct there so many pointless posts of/by Member who do not simply read, please understand I see the them, but unless the OP of thread id's and requests a cleaning, then it will remain. Unless there is violation or a post to become a violation...those will be removed.

Bottom Line unless requested for a cleaning of the thread, posts will remain.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dandrumheller:
Looks to me like this is going to be the case sooner rather than later. Now that there is a way to port N4 ROMs without having to mess with the partitioning on the device, things should get streamlined. While there is always the option of N4 conversion and associated partition issues, the advantages of this just got a LOT less (IMHO) with the new options. I'd guess that once those of us who have converted revert back, the process should become more consistent.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dbgeek:
I think ChetAnt's comment calls for something that's more fundamental than N4 conversion being a thing of the past. Many of the flashing problems that are brought up don't even include something as complex as the N4 conversion. From what I've read, there are 4 possible components to clean up before flashing: 1) wipe cache, 2) wipe dalvik, 3) factory reset and 4) format /system. If we could have a consistent use of those 4 (not different combinations, but decide on which of the 4 will be required for all ROMs), then we may be able to avoid a lot of the issues.

Oh, and we may need to add a 5th component: app restore with or without data, which may split along System Apps and User Apps. Which also brings up the need to flash Gapps (personally, I prefer the requirement to flash them, since it makes each ROM smaller and quicker to DL).
[AT&T LG Optimus G] :
To be fair, his comment contained easy-to-follow instructions
[AT&T LG Optimus G] autosurgeon:
If people choose to flash without knowing what they are doing it is their own problem. People have free will and the ability to make decisions. Poor decisions based on failure to research is not an issue the mods need to be concerned with.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dandrumheller:
The issues you bring up here have been the same across a bunch of different devices I have messed with custom roms on (HTC Aria, Samsung Captivate, Vizio VTab, Samsung SGS2 i777, Asus TF101, and the LGOG). Depending on what the specific case may be, some or all of these may be necessary or not. But you can ALWAYS do ALL of them when flashing a new ROM and be OK, as far as I know. However, you might not want to have to rebuild your setup if you factory reset or wipe /system. Most devs report what they feel is necessary to run with stability in these cases when they release updates. Follow instructions. If you have problems, then full wipe. I usually figure user app restore is OK when staying on the same Android version - if changing android version YMMV. I NEVER restore system apps from previous ROMs under any circumstances.

When I'm going from one ROM to another, I always do all of the above. When updating versions/releases of the SAME ROM on the SAME base, I usually try just cache/dalvik first. If I have problems, then it's the full monty before reporting issues.

But variability in what wipes are or are not necessary are definitely not an issue that is unique to the LGOG community.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] :
I think the issue here is the gap between your everyday phone user, and the people who have been on XDA. XDA is a developer forum meant to develop the latest and greatest, and push our phones to do what we want them to do. The Optimus G community is so fragmented, nothing like over on the Captivate. We have people arguing about conversions, talking about "hacks," telling people they are stupid, when many of them (or us) are not qualified to speak on these issues. The idea behind having a Q&A and General subforum, is for the new people (or people with issues) to go their and figure things out. The issue with this is people tend to ignore that and spam the development subforums with issues, how to questions, etc; The N4 conversion imo should have never been posted, not because of it's risk, but because of the general carelessness of users. People are refusing to read OPs, doing what ever they think is best and then asking for help. We've had to have several threads cleaned up, probably this one soon, and that shouldn't happen. If you want to do this stuff that is fine, but it's at your risk, and you should do your research. I have never once bricked an Android device, and I have done some pretty sketchy stuff with them because I spend hours reading up before I even think about doing anything, and many people think is the dev's jobs. It's not. They are here to develop, post it, and then use feedback from users to improve this. They are not here to teach baby every user and teach them the basics. I've seen with this phone doing all this stuff, and then don't even know how to adb push, or use LGNPST. If you can't even figure out how to do these things, you need to reevaluate what you are doing. Nobody needs to be a dev to be here, but it is their job to educate themselves on the steps to using the developers work.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] HyDRo1X:
I did the lgnpst already, no recovery but i can still use root apps so i guess i still have root, do i have to reinstall a recovery? is there a different method with new ota or same as before? also how do you know if lgnpst worked because when it finished i kept all my stuff?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] :
What? When you LGNPST, you have to root, and then unlock using freegee, nothing has changed.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] HyDRo1X:
hmm, ok i know what i did wrong then, after that what do i do next? update the phone through settings?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dandrumheller:
I really like your take on this nygfan760. I find it interesting that you argue on one side that users looking to mod need to do their research and be responsible for their own actions, but then argue that the N4 conversion shouldn't have been posted because it's dangerous to those who don't do their research / know what they are doing. I'd use that logic to argue FOR posting the N4 conversion! :laugh: As you do, I always read up significantly before modding, and have always read the return to stock materials, and downloaded all files necessary for such, BEFORE doing any mods. I have NEVER had to use any of them (on 6 devices), and have NEVER bricked.

I do agree that the fragmented dev community is detrimental, at least to some degree, to forward progress over here. Though the recent changes seem to be, at least from my 'outsider's' perspective, bringing things back together a little bit. I have hope for more.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] gunnyman:
Lgnpst back to stock. Then STOP. You aren't ready for anything else young padewan. Read the forums and how to threads. Then do it again. Then once more just for good measure.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] :
Dude. LGNPST to stock JB. Root. Unlock. Flash what you want (make sure before you flash that you read the OP) of the rom.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] gunnyman:
I really need the link to azrionoch's video permanently in my clipboard
[AT&T LG Optimus G] jeet49:
I did the same and then wiping the cache, factory/data and format system. By my phone hangs after showing "LG" sign on blank screen.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] :
That's a different issue. Please come to: webchat.freenode.net and use channel: #lg-optimus-g and ask for help.

lol, even with an emoticon the sarcasm didn't come through.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mrpanic7:
Has anyone experienced dropping of signal/emergency calls only happening randomly? I just re-flashed the radio to see if it helps but it's been happening off and on today.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] bassitone:
For what it's worth, I've noticed this with all of the 4.2.2 ROMs I've tried (really the AOSP OpenMaster and CM before our 4.1.2 came out, haven't been on the new ones long enough). Maybe a 4.2 issue?

JB radio might just suck for these roms. I use .33 and it works perfectly for me with LTE off (dat battery drain).
[AT&T LG Optimus G] HyDRo1X:
This is worthless trolling, regardless

Anyways, i tried to lgnpst back to stock but the file that was given in irc just gets stuck on boot loop
[AT&T LG Optimus G] :
Ok stop posting. Follow these steps to the letter:

LGNPST using this file: no exceptions and make sure it downloaded fine

Once LGNPST is completely finished unplug your phone and factory reset it.

Root using this and only this.

Unlock using the freegee app in play store (once again don't use anything else).

Once FreeGee has confirmed you are unlock, reboot to recovery to make sure it worked ok.

Boot back up, put the files on your SD card, reboot to recovery.

Wipe data/cache/dalvik/system and then flash this rom and gapps.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] gunnyman:
Sorry

I couldn't find my spoon.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] bassitone:
I have no idea. I don't recall this being an issue on houstonn's international JB port before we had SnowJB (never tried SnowJB because I went straight to AOSP), so I'm not convinced it's the JB radio.

Is there a thread of radios we can try flashing that are safe/working for our phone? I love my LTE, but I still feel a bit uneasy about the whole "Maritime" network we're connecting to...

Pecked by the AOKP/CM/PA unicorn
[AT&T LG Optimus G] :
That's not an AOSP rom though. I think it has to do with the phone being a identified as a Nexus 4, but using an OG radio.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] gunnyman:
BTW Anyone who wants to think I'm a troll should just look at my thanks count.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dbgeek:
You need to do a hard reset (factory reset). Hold the power button to turn off the phone. As soon as it's off press pwr and vol down (press on the bottom end of the vol control, to ensure that it's vol down). You'll get a black screen with white text asking if you are sure that you want to factory reset. Press pwr and confirm. Once it resets, it'll boot fine.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dbjungle:
Make sure to use FreeGee from the Google Play store. The download 0.5 version is not compatible with the ATT JB partitions. Found that out last night.

---------- Post added at 11:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:27 PM ----------

Personally I think people need to read more LOL. It will help with a lot of the individual problems. I have never bricked a device. I think it's semi hard to do as long as you are paying attention. Also... By me being a Linux/Android/Dev noob, I don't do anything before there is some actual feedback of the results in the forum. Anything you do to your phone is at your own accepted risk. So we all can't get mad if we brick our phones. Just be courteous and ask for help. LG phones seem pretty easy to fix with download mode. This is my second LG Android. If the casual users are coming in with this mentality I think they will be fine. I'm usually only on here until there is an official CM for my phone then I come back when I get a new one.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] HyDRo1X:
I never bricked a device either. Unless you count boot loop I don't since its easy to fix. Regardless I read everything I could find but not until nyg said I had to factory reset did I solve the problem.no one said that anywhere I looked. But that's why we post questios.so we don't brick

Just curious... the gapps with photosphere can only do panorama and not the actual 360 degree photosphere? Or is it phone specific? I've installed the same gapps on other phones and some can do it and some don't. Does anyone here have this working? I love those 360 degree shots.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] TangoXray:
Ponyexpress has posted a zip file you can flash to get photosphere working. I've used it twice with success. I'll try to get a link for you in a while. In the meantime look around the q and a sub for houstonn's root box.

Just out of curiosity is the call timer the actual timer that tracks how much time you spend making a call? Or is it something related to call functionality?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Bracemg:
So I did the LGNPST thing, but apparently the file I downloaded was ICS. Where can I find the JB LGNPST?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dbjungle:
Go on the IRC channel and someone should be able to provide the link. I think it was posted this morning / last night in this thread as well.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] HyDRo1X:
From what I hear it doesn't matter, just factory reset after completing and you should be fine, then install the new ROM. Although if it doesn't work look back a few messages someone responded to me (nyg) with the exact tutorial.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dbgeek:
This ROM doesn't have working camera and GPS is borked for many users. Why not flash one of the new OTA required ROMs that have both of those critical components working? If you are planning to flash one of the new ROM's that specifies that you must have JB via OTA or LGNPST the AT&T JB file, following this statement could lead to some very serious consequences.

If you want to flash the new OTA required ROM's then either

LGNPST the JB bin file found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2219953

Since 0410 nightly, everything is working on this rom and ota is required. For those with nfc issues here is different firmware to fix it for you. For some reason we haven't narrowed down yet why some people need jb firmware, and others ics firmware for nfc.

My bad, I missed the part in the OP that said that issues were fixed, but OTA was needed. I didn't intend to disparage this ROM. In fact, now that I know that those issues are fixed I can upgrade.

Now I regret not leaving my original comment that hyrdox1 doesn't have a clue and was leading people down a path that would brick their phones.

NFC Issue

Everything works great except NFC. I tried to terminal emulator fix, using SU of course and the zip file. I installed the zip through recovery. Neither one solved the issue. Wish it worked, but can live for a while without it. Thanks for all the devs hard work.

The new nfc zip worked for me. Hope that .so file I sent you helped in creating this new nfc fix Shelnutt2!

Can't find any problems with this ROM although I did have a random reboot last night. Still, overall it is stable, solid, and a DD for me.

Thanks for this ROM, working great so far.

I'm running the 0412 build.

Two things I've noticed:

1) When I make a phone call it immediately says "call ended" but then starts calling anyway in a "second instance" of the phone app in the background. Weird but can I live with it.

2) The camera (from BaNkS gapps) defaults to saving pictures on the internal SD Card and I can't seem to find a way to switch the path (so I can point it at the external SD). Am I just being dumb or is there a way to change it?
