Did you already try the LG Flash Tool as well? For me, LGNPST failed the last time I tried to use it. I was freaking out because I'd wiped my internal storage and tried every .bin through LGNPST, they all failed. Then I happened to stumble up the LG Flash Tool in the forum and that worked first try.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Dmaxx67:
Spleef could you tell me what device tree you are using to build carbon for this device?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
i use the cyanogenmod trees..though i have forked it and made branches named carbon,liquid,etc to make building easier for me....in the op in sources and credits i have link to exactly what i use...well unless im modifying it to my own liking...then its not exactly what you sync but what you change...

ive tried to get the flash tool working but it wont open for me followed op instructions to the letter even did some googling on it but cannot get it to work asks for username pw and country and errors saying cant find a dll..tried every bin i can get my hands on none work all fail instantly with same error..this is the exact error i get in lgnpst

process: upgrade

subproc: masterbin download

cause : fail to write partition

primaryGPT, 512th sector
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamesadalpiaz:
Have you tried TeenyBean and or AutoLGNPST?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
Yep.been getting help from some of our fantastic folks around here and still can't get it working...what sucks most is once I do get a new phone it has to be free or extremely cheap so there is no garentee ill be able to get a lgog..unless I get something my wife likes more than her stock locked

Lgog
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamesadalpiaz:
Dang... $700 for a replacement... Maybe check out swappa?

Here's one for $170: http://swappa.com/listing/CMA701/view
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Agimax:
I still have my original Hero, feel free to port Carbon to that bad boy :)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
^^^This is funny. Huh spleef? Quite the coincidence. ;)

Edit...NVM see you already posted what you are running now. Jokes on me.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] sbslammer:
Sorry to hear that man. Did you try checking out the irc channel? Usually the crowd is pretty helpful
[Sprint LG Optimus G] kMogs17:
sorry to hear this bro hopefully someone can pick up your roms if you aren't trying to build for a phone you can't use
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamaicamike:
I just heard the news spleef just pay and fix it bro we need u optimus prime needs u lol
[Sprint LG Optimus G] asdf002:
Start a fund for a replacement? I would never do it because of past experience but we talking about spleef. I'd be first to donate.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Abhijeet357:
+1

I started loving my LGOG because of spleef. I am also willing to donate.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Noob4337:
+2
[Sprint LG Optimus G] droidmk:
I am sorry to hear about [MENTION=1880287]spleef[/MENTION] too. My wife's evo 3d broke a couple months ago and we fired up the old hero. I don't really have money to donate, but I will gladly pick up some of the builds if necessary (and if I can get them to work right.)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Dmaxx67:
hey spleef if you want pm me and help me sort out where to repo sync from to build carbon for this device. Kind of a noob at this but want to learn and figure this best way to start.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Sputnikk23:
I've never donated. I would donate, all though be it small.

Thank you spleef.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
check it out did a small write up and provided files to build carbon im going to post the zip in the op so anyone who wants to can....please dont take this as im bailing cause im not i am still working on fixing my phone im trying everything i can just havent had alot of time on the computer last few days but seen the requests wanting to build so figured i go ahead and set that one up for you guys so feel free to dl it check it out if there is something mmissing or confusing let me know and ill try to help get you going

and guys while the offer of letting you guys throw in to buy me a new phone is ..well..extremely flattering and tempting...i would rather ask that you didnt i dont want someone to donate then things go badly or rom they use doesnt get worked on immeditely and people become angry and upset and id rather just avoid that situation...but as always it is your decision and if you do choose to donate for that cause be sure to put it in the payment description along with your xda name so it can be managed appropriately...and again thank you everyone but no worries i will find a way to continue doing my thing

direct link to the post with build set up zip

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=45453239&postcount=2
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamesadalpiaz:
Thanks for the zip Spleef. I'm going to try to compile just to get the latest build for myself. If it runs smoothly I'll go ahead and release it maybe...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] droidmk:
Since you released this to the masses I will wait. If anyone has trouble building let me know and I will try to help or build myself.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Dmaxx67:
I'm drunk at a Halloween party but I'm gonna try and build latest tom night. I have been wanting to give back to this great community and have found my in now. I'll keep ya posted and droid mk I may be hitting you up tom to help if I run into errors.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamesadalpiaz:
I'm doing the initial syncing. If you guys want go ahead and build/release, this is more so for me to get into compiling android. I'll probably mess up anyways just trying it out. :P
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
I know most will look at me releasing to the masses as a bad thing but my thinking on it was trying to get more involved in my absence...I am hoping that someone will be able to take what I've provided and be able to take off with it..sometimes all it takes is just a little nudge and they are able to run with it...I know cause I'm one of those people....it sounds like multiple people are interested so felt would be better to relay the info publicly rather than give to one person and alienate the others...so.....what im going to do is step aside/down and allow whoever it may be take it over.....if and when you are ready for public release let me know ill get this thread closed so you can make your own...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamesadalpiaz:
One problem... There were errors in your instructions like the repo download but I got passed that... There is no lge directory to add the files into you provided... I'm kinda stuck... I thought I'd mess up so this is where I can't go farther... Sorry just wanted to be up to date. Thanks for all you do spleef. Wish you can get a new LGOG soon.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
If there is no carbon/device/lge/ls970 then something is not right with your sync... you must place the local_manifest in my zip into a folder named local_manifests in carbon/.repo directory it can't just be placed in the carbon folder..
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamesadalpiaz:
Oh... opps I named it local_manifest... without the "s"... my bad... Well I'll try again...

Again... Thanks spleef... you are one of the reasons why the Sprint LGOG is so awesome. I don't know why this phone has next to no development for it considering it's basically a Nexus 4. Thank you for everything for making my phone so kick ass. :P
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bender01729:
Hi all, I have built Carbon successfully. I still need to test it, but if everything seems alright I can start building and distributing nightlies for anyone interested. I won't be able to test immediately, as I have some other obligations today, but I should have some time tonight to get setup.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Dmaxx67:
Lunch menu... pick a combo:

1. mini_armv7a_neon-userdebug	3. mini_x86-userdebug

2. mini_mips-userdebug	4. carbon_ls970-userdebug

Which would you like? [full-eng] 4

build/core/product_config.mk:238: *** _nic.PRODUCTS.[[device/lge/ls970/carbon.mk]]: "device/lge/gproj-common/gproj.mk" does not exist. Stop.

** Don't have a product spec for: 'carbon_ls970'

** Do you have the right repo manifest?

We are supposed to build #4 correct if so do i need to repo sync again???

I checked and gproj.mk does exist and is in the right spot with proper permissions.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bender01729:
Take a look at the local_manifest.xml, there is a transposed character in the path attribute. device/lge/grpoj-common should be device/lge/gproj-common
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Dmaxx67:
so now that i fixed that i need to repo sync again?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bender01729:
Yeah I went and deleted the incorrect directory and then did the sync again.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] droidmk:
It is all good brother, hope you can get back to us soon.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Dmaxx67:
Which would you like? [full-eng] 4

build/core/product_config.mk:238: *** _nic.PRODUCTS.[[device/lge/ls970/carbon.mk]]: "frameworks/base/data/sounds/AudioPackage10.mk" does not exist. Stop.

now i go tthis error. i think i may have deleted too many lines from manifest.xml. bender can you send me your manifest so i can compare if you deleted all the unnecessary items from it.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bender01729:
Here is what I have. First build didn't work correctly so I decided to change to the nh kernel. I'm not sure what I did but I am getting a bunch of build errors all of the sudden. Trying to work through those.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] droidmk:
Go into gproj-common/gproj.mk

Scroll to the bottom and delete the following lines:

# This is the mako-specific audio package

$(call inherit-product, frameworks/base/data/sounds/AudioPackage10.mk)

Then start your build again.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Dmaxx67:
So that package is not necessary for our build

---------- Post added at 06:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:41 PM ----------

Also spleef helped me out and I deleted way too much in manifest.XML gotta resynchronise tonight cause in on satellite internet
[Sprint LG Optimus G] droidmk:
I had to take that out to build slim. I still have sound, so I guess not.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
If need it can always make it...like for that audiopackage10.mk...

Go to another Rom git..in this case can go to pac... go to frameworks/data/sound and click on audiopackage10.mk.... select all then copy...now on the computer create a new document..name it AudioPackage10.mk.. paste what you copied save and close now copy the new doc you made and paste it in carbon/frameworks/data/sounds..now the error is fixed...can do this for multiple errors you encounter where the file you need is missing
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bender01729:
Ahh figured out the source of my issues... Just FYI I had updated my system in between builds and make was updated to v4.0 which is definitely not compatible with this build.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Agimax:
I had some spare time, so decided to build Carbon. It finished and seems smooth and haven't found any bugs yet. I don't want to be the maintainer of this ROM, but i can build in my spare time or as backup if need be. I am uploading the build to the 'box'. If anyone interested, ill edit this post with the link when it finishes uploading. Just let me know.

Link:

CARBON-JB-UNOFFICIAL-20131027-1721-ls970

Yes, this will dirty-flash over 10/20 build.

Yes, this will work with the newest NH Kernel!

I finally worked through all of my build issues and now everything is working smoothly. I would be happy to take over maintenance of this ROM if anyone is interested. Latest: CARBON-JB-UNOFFICIAL-20131028-1208-ls970
[Sprint LG Optimus G] neighborhoodhacker:
I was going to do this soon just haven't got around to it thanks. IDC really but do you want me to take it over

If you don't mind I would like to help out and maintain this ROM. I've been looking to maintain a ROM and I use Carbon on a daily basis.

Message spleef
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
im fine with whoever that wants to do it doing it..jus open you a thread and ill lock this one down...gladd to see more involvement.. think i seen 3/4 folks building carbon....thats fantstic to see more folks getting into it..and hey if you dont end up maintaining carbon...there are a ton more i can make zips like i did for carbon for any of the roms ive built...and probably for some i havent yet...lol..just let me know...sorry for the lack of responses but the hero kinda blows..is almost impossible to type on at times,,,,.lol..but just in case anyone wondering im still broken down will slap a few sc of my recovery in this post
[Sprint LG Optimus G] droidmk:
[MENTION=1880287]spleef[/MENTION], my wife is going through the same thing with the hero. Just want everyone to remember that in 2010/2011 that was one of the top of the line phones.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
used to love it when it was newer...but im running nfx rom on it and is a bit laggy mostly when i type...or use anything web related...but for now shell do...just really wishing i didnt sell my photon now it wouldve made a much better backup phone...lol...i had to choose between a palm pre, s2, or hero....idk why but i have a weird thing about samsung..dont really care for their products so i went with the hero
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
oooo! Palm Pre! Palm Pre! Loved that thing
[Sprint LG Optimus G] droidmk:
Lol at least the s2 is still actively developed.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
wife still swears by that phone though she loves her stock lg wont even let me touch it...lol says no your going to break mine too

yeah but idk just something about sammy rubs me wrong though they do seem to do right by their dev community...i personally have never owned one but i know lots who do and i hear all their complaints about them and they just seem to be a cheaply made mass produced product..that does more of keeping up with the jones instead or driving the lawn mower over their yard
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dengar100:
Thanks for building this. I ran into some issues while running it, I thought I lost data but in actuality I think I just lost 4G.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
alright then....is built and uploading...please allow 30-45 min for it to upload.... am uploading to all three at once..make sure to use gapps for 4.3 and here is the link for an official changelog

http://changelog.carbon-rom.com/

k uploaded
[Sprint LG Optimus G] treezy26:
Anybody???

idk how I got here...

4.3 Based Carbon + Latest Poweramp fixes A2DP streaming (ID3 tag streaming issue) finally!! :D
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
havent tried it ...is not that im ignoring your question i just dont have an answer for you hoping someone else chimes in

if i had to guess it would go like this...does it work in cm10-2? if yes then yes it should work in carbon if no then no it wouldnt be in carbon i use exact same sources as shel its his work i make use of

carbon made a slight change on me while building so i resynced and rebuilt... named it 8/27 should be close to finished being uploaded if you want the most current commits/changes then go with 8/27 if already on 8/26 and not concerned with such things then dont be as far as i can tell was a very very minor edit so wont hurt either way but ultimately up to you guys the user...enjoy

looks like im syncing and building in the middle of a merge the roms i posted are fine but there are new commits coming in by the minute so most likely wil be updating again tomorrow...lol
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BonezMontana:
Has anyone been able to get the photosphere camera to work along with 13 mp?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
havent tried been using only the gapps core since some have had issues with other packages...but if you do by all means please share how..tanks

Something I've noticed.... in the status bar toggles/quick toggles even if you select the Bluetooth toggle it doesn't show up.... However enable power widgets and choose Bluetooth and it shows up... Just something I've found...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] treezy26:
Thanks for the response spleef. Sorry if it seemed I was bugging. It's just that I'm stuck at work or I'd flash of myself and see. Which is what I normally do.

I ask because I know it's a cm issue but I just thought since alot of our roms use cm and it seems to work for me on rootbox, there might be some hope:rolleyes:

Anyways once I'm home I'll flash and give an update.

And again thanks for all your hard work!

idk how I got here...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BonezMontana:
I can confirm that it doesn't work. Well at least not my rocketfish mhl adapter.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] EFEXR:
I just flashed the new 8.27 build. Im coming from Rootbox 4.2.2, but is just me or is there more color on the phone now. I never realized this but my screen looks more awesome than it did before.

Thanks spleef for the new update on Carbon.

On another note, I also had trouble with Titanium. I could not restore any of my backups. I read on this thread to update SU binary. I downloaded the Superuser app by Clockwork and a message popped up saying to update binary only by recovery. It then took me to TWRP but I didnt know what to do from there.

Anyways, I read the CM 10.2 forum and followed these steps:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=44842511&postcount=173

Titanium works fine without update SU binary when I followed the link above.

Edit: Does the 4.3 Carbon Rom have eco mode or undervolting to -125? I could not find it under Trickster Mod
[Sprint LG Optimus G] simpkill:
I agree, the color does look better.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] treezy26:
I can also confirm mhl doesn't work,:( which is a bummer cuz I'm loving the rom. Unfortunately I am going to have to return to root box, gotta have my mhl.

Again thanks for the hard work and hopefully this will get fixed in future updates.

idk how I got here...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] simpkill:
Anyone get this on reboot?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
No never seen that before what in the world

Been doing any dirty flashing? Try a fresh install even when I went from 8/25-8/26-8/27 I fresh installed....I know it sucks but I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting flash this...

Something else I've noticed... My lockscreen ribbons are the but if I click it doesn't unlock and go to the app.. but once I unlock is there so is working but not exactly like is supposed to maybe today's update will address some of these bugs
[Sprint LG Optimus G] drancid:
found one tiny issue on 8/26 build.

I can't put a bluetooth toggle to the status bar toggle area. not a big deal but kinda miss it.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] simpkill:
Roger. Yeah when I updated I dirty flashed. I didn't get that notification until I tried to use titanium though. This was before I changed the backup folder in titanium's settings. I think I'll wait to re-flash until the next update. I'm holding out for DPI customization options.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
todays sources being synced...will be building soon...so far in the official changelog says....

fix ribbons lockscreen behavior (yeah)

volume rocker wake

rotation settings

adaptive backlight support

better font size selection

minor lockscreen targets cleanup

fix lockscreen wallpaper..(though i think i nabbed this one in my 8/27 build)

will post progress and let everyone know when ready...

Is building folks few hours should be ready
[Sprint LG Optimus G] SlimMan:
I have gotten that on a dirty flash, I think I was coming from one type of base to another and it happened.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] saramon:
Try fixing permissions for the uid issue...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Evolutionmods:
i used to get uid errors on my evo lte all the time, a good wipe should clear it up
[Sprint LG Optimus G] kmull4:
Has anyone been able to successfully run viper4android on this?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] shaneg79:
I did on my Motorola defy and I had to take my phone back to stock and re-root . I'm not sure what caused it.

---------- Post added at 11:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:48 PM ----------

Spleef,

Thanks for an awesome ROM! Your ROMs are always the best and you have the best 4.3 ROM hands down!!! I would love to see a five signal bar icon if you ever have extra time. I do like the new 4 bar design, it is cool too! Thanks again for your hard work! It is greatly appreciated!!!! :)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] ihitcows:
How, praytell, are y'all able to reboot? :confused:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
Using the 8-27 build and can't get past activation screen... I hit skip but just takes me back to pick language then to activation again ...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
Edit: my phone isn't activated by the way ... So may be issue for me but not ones who are activated....
[Sprint LG Optimus G] sahhar1993:
Will this ROM work on international one ?

Envoyé depuis mon LG-E975 en utilisant Tapatalk 4
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
not sure but i am able to use as i normally would been in and out of recovery nps.. im using twrp 2.6 i wiped three times prior to flashing and ive not wiped internal storage since i got the phone

most likely thats it try getting into airplane mode think i remember there was a way to bypass the activation screen might want to look into that

honestly im not sure but the vendor,and kernel are straight from e975 but device and common are ls970 my best guess is yes to a point most likely will boot but will have issues since its a different device
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
Yes I've looked and tried tapping the 4 corners,tried tapping bottom left then bottom right then bottom left then bottom right then volume up.... Both those options is a no go :'(
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
Well hell I'm not really sure what to suggest, maybe if your able to flash into any one of these carbon 4.3 ls970 go into airplane mode then try dirty flashing most recent build... Not sure why some can flash and some can't it's very weird.. But 8/28 uploaded I'm running it now dirty flashed on top of 8/27 working perfect so far
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
OK thnxs will try
[Sprint LG Optimus G] simpkill:
8/28 is great! No issues here. Even have LCD density options now.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BonezMontana:
There is a call bug that myself and my wife have experienced. I did a clean install of 8/28 so I'm not sure if its present within this build. It something that we also experienced on CM10.2. When you make a call and you hang up, then redial a number a few times the dialer will stop working saying unable to make call or something of that nature. When you maketry to make a call you will also see the merge button, so its as if the phone never disconnected from the original call. I'll try to get a screen shot and post it. Only way to get it to work is by rebooting the phone. Someone else had this issue as well in the CM10.2 thread. I don't know if its a network issue or an issue with the dialer. I just wanted to let you know that it happens on this rom as well. I think I found a way to manipulate the error, by dialing a number and hanging up quickly then re dialing again a few times.

**Edit** After flashing 8/28, my data doesn't connect on its own when rebooting. Per the settings its on, so in order to get it to work I have to turn it off and back on again for it to connect. Anyone know of a fix to that as well? Sorry for the book lol.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] mistermidas:
I'm getting force closes when I go to the display option of the settings menu. Clean install coming from rootbox. Anyone else getting this?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BonezMontana:
Yes I was just about to post the same as well. Clean install coming from 8/27.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] That_Guy0505:
Hey bro, running the latest carbon build and it's sweet. I did want to let you know that I found a minor bug. I'm not sure if you're aware of it or not but it's definity a first for me. I'll get in touch with you.

Thanks!
