I'd like to give that a try. For background maybe really dark gray, and for text maybe holo blue, I think that's a great combo.

So is next update gonna be kittkatt or soon after?..ive seen they are developing 4.4 for 760 on here already. what does n5 stuff entail?... I like the battery life and just don't waNt it to be ruined with future updates as well
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] leolawliet:
Sticking with 4.3.1, just adding some N5 apps.

Edit: Had difficulties adding some N5 apps on a personal ROM I made from scratch, hopefully they'll work properly on this ROM.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] dragid10:
alright when i want to use the Poweramp or Xeno lock screen (not android music lock widget), it makes my phone restart. Why?

Also when using viper xHiFi, what driver version am i supposed to install;

Without VFP (PXA920)

WIth VFP

or CortexAx with NEON
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] leolawliet:
Those app issues can't be related to my ROM, I've been using PowerAMP all day..

Choose CortexA9 with NEON, uninstall the others and restart first.. you need to take the time to read the thread for V4A, you're gonna mess up your audio if you don't pay attention.

Penderrom for 769 is the best ROM I've ever used...bottemline

Constructive crit...

Don't use other themes make them available as an add on..

Don't add any extra audio crap.. Poweramp...nothing beats..keep up the hard work..
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] leolawliet:
Some things are getting changed up quite a bit with the next update, I was gonna add 4.4 sounds for it instead. I'm gonna try to switch SmartLauncher with Google Experience Launcher. I'm not adding much from 4.4 except Hangouts because it works as an SMS app now.

Other than that.. for the theme, I thought about that too I was really just seeing how that would work out. The least I'll do is a 4.4 theme, I like the idea of having another option as soon as it's installed.

I'm still brainstorming and trying stuff out, next update will be nice.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] thasilenthacker:
update yet?

---------- Post added at 01:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:29 AM ----------

it would be awesome to use miui themes with this rom

---------- Post added at 02:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:31 AM ----------

i will also be a tester for p769 if you need any more
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] leolawliet:
I don't plan on adding MIUI functionality in this ROM, it's already packed with too many mods.

Update won't be for a while.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] jufece:
Not works on p768 :(

I got white screen with vertical lines multiple colors and white color around the screen ven in cwm :(

This ROM will only work on P769
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] leolawliet:
Highly experimental, I'm not sure if this will even boot. First attempt at slimming down the ROM, some stuff I moved to the Gapps installer so it's more of a Gapps+Extra Add-ons kind of package.

I want you guys to remember, from the very start I have based this ROM on my personal preference and will continue to do so.

Slim PenberRom5

Slim PenberRom5 Gapps

I still haven't had a chance to test this build, so if there is any problems for you upon flashing my ROM, you've been warned.

Disregard what I posted above, it bootlooped.. do not install
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] nicholasknicks:
Since L5 4.4 is on alpha stages..... is there a chance of us getting a 4.4 update for L9?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] leolawliet:
Maybe.. Not sure

Edit: I'm just gonna fix up the last update a but and re-release it. I'm not including the N5 stuff, it complicates stuff.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] thasilenthacker:
latest build finished?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] nicholasknicks:
I think the best way is to release the final clean update and another update with 4.4 stuff that way we can choose which one to work with
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] ALWA7SH6:
can i use the build.prop tweaks with S2 ?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] leolawliet:
I'm gonna exclude it, doesn't seem to be a great idea to include it.. technically I would have to merge gapps with the ROM and I'm not trying to break any rules here. I'll just post a link to an add-on when it's made.

Should work
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] leolawliet:
Nov. 9 Beta build: Dev-Host - P769_PR5_2013NOV9.zip

I realized I messed up something with V4A on the last update, so I fixed it on this update. Other than that, I updated the tweaks in /etc/ & /etc/init.d/ as well. I removed CM File Manager and replaced it with Slim File manager, also added the music player from MIUI v5.

Should I keep Apollo, or replace it with MIUI Music?

Other than that, ad-blocking will handle much better.. and I updated the sysctl.conf tweaks.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] ALWA7SH6:

so i kinda want to change the bootanimation, but i like the way how sometimes at the end it tells me which apps are updating/being optimized. If i were to change the bootanimation, would i lose that part?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] leolawliet:
You wouldn't lose that part, I think it's built into the framework
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] nicholasknicks:
If you change the boot animation you will lose that

---------- Post added at 09:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:41 AM ----------

I finally realized what's causing the black text on black background. Uncheck the 16 bit transparency option
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] leolawliet:
I changed my bootanimation manually and that update screen stuck, it shows up when you wipe cache & dalvik-cache in recovery and reboot.

If 16bit transparency is causing the black backgrounds I'm gonna look into it more carefully, and remove it from build.prop as well.

Wow this rom is nice! I have a weird problem though. Apollo can't see any of my mp3's and when I plug the phone into my computer I cant only see the internal storage. The file explorer lets me see my SC card, but not my internal storage! How do I get access to both!
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] dragid10:

So i have the latest version of Viper installed, and i'm trying to install the drivers. I choose super high quality and reboot, but when i go back into the app it keeps saying i have to install the driver
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] leolawliet:
I've tried my best to integrate the newest version but I've had so many problems with it I'd rather just keep it as is. I'm also waiting for a stable enough release, to include it in an update.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] t.d:
Stress at work? Please don't blame it on me, while I'm no dev, I've been using custom roms for a few years and this is the first I've read of this type of problem. Anyway I tried reinserting the card, I've had to do that in the past as well. You are correct in that my PC does show my SD card, only indicated by remaining space. Only 3 android related folders are displayed, including the "Android" folder. I'll reformat it later and update from there.

Start a beer fund. I may donate some when you chill out :p
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] leolawliet:
My bad then lol and you're welcome for the ROM, I worked really hard on it :)

I honestly believe you might've had a bad download, there shouldn't be any reason why it won't read. It's weird that your card isn't being read, I can tell you this much tho. Last month I had a nasty problem with the newest Titanium Backup, it made my sdcard mount crash every time I would try to load the app, as in it makes it completely inaccessible. I wasn't even able to safely unmount it, and what's worse is when I tried to reboot it got stuck at the reboot screen playing the PACMAN ROM shutting down animation. I popped out the battery, popped it back in, rebooted only to find my sdcard was corrupted.. yay me

I found a way to access my files and back them up somehow (thank god for le girlfriend's laptop) then I formatted my sdcard and took this opportunity to partition it anyway. I uninstalled Titanium Backup and never had any problems again ever since.

If you used Titanium Backup at any of the times this happened, then there's your problem. Although after formatting it seemed to work just fine with Titanium Backup just a couple of days ago. It's never a bad idea to cleanup your sdcard every now and then. I may do this every month to ensure I ONLY have what I need on my card and backup the rest and all at once I can also remove the clutter I don't want.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] t.d:
Ok more to the mystery. I reflashed using stock gapps, same problem. Reflashed with slimapps. Decided to erase the SD card from within Android and that did.... nothing. Nothing was erased but as soon as the "operation" finished it started scanning for media. Apollo and gallery started working as they should. Now I have a fully functioning ROM running smoother than the rest I've tried :)

That was weird.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] leolawliet:

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] leolawliet:
Not the base ROM but the tweaks in the ROM got updated, it's just a bit of tweaking.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] matthewstice:
I've heard odexing a rom makes it faster d more battery efficient but makes it harder to customize? Any info on this?

Is this rom deodexed? Odexed?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] artit:
I've read somewhere that at first boot android optimize all deodexed files and that make odexed & deodexed no difference in performance. It take a little longer at first boot in deodexed rom.

And yes deodexed rom is easier to theme and customize because when you want to modified app, you need to deodex it first.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] matthewstice:
Well I just odexed penderrom..I'll report if I notice any differences and what they are if any
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] leolawliet:
Isn't deodexed optimized as dalvik-cache is being built? It makes sense for that being one of the causes for a slow bootup.

One of the other differences is that odexed takes up more space and is harder to modify because it's split. If it's merged as deodexed only one file has to be tweaked. That's why most custom ROMs are deodexed, it's easier to work around and theme as we like.

I don't really think I'll find much use out of odexing the ROM, in all honesty it barely makes a difference. I only notice a slight difference on bootup speed.

Please tell me how it goes, I've tried already and I'm about to revert to deodexed.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] leolawliet:
I'll do a test run on my battery and let you know what I get. I don't have service at the moment, try turning the brightness down and use 2G when not on your phone. WiFi kills battery fast too, just saying.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] dragid10:
I'm not sure if its just me, but wifi randomly turns off for s econd, and immediately back on?

Also is anyone using the latest version of viper with this rom? Is it working well? Does yours show that its enabled and processing? Mine doesn't for some reason
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] leolawliet:
I'm not having WiFi issues anywhere else I go, just at home but the router is crap anyway and needs to be replaced.

I'll update V4A in the next build, it won't randomly shut off if you're using it as a system app. There's more to it tho, I would have to integrate it with some files from the .apk itself.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] dragid10:
I only bring up the wifi thing, because i use tablet talk (to text from my tablet through my phone) and a few seconds after the screen shuts off, it disables itself. No idea why

Yes, I tried to build p769 kernel once but not success. I think there are some missing lib or config in p760 CM repository. That why I used AntonX kernel in my miui for p769.

Make a folder call it what u want. Then CD to that folder in terminal and type

repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm-10.2

Then repo sync. Then wait. If u want cm 11 or cm 10.1 just change the last part.

I just noticed PAC 4.4 source is out so I'll be working on that. I wish we could disable emulated SD on 4.4.

Ive tried everything from a bunch of devices but not yet have I got it disabled. AntonX please help us disable emulation.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] artit:
As [MENTION=4668255]twinnfamous[/MENTION] said, just do it and wait, download size is about 9-10G. One more info about repo command and branch, CM use tags when they release M or RC build. You can switch repo source to those milestone tag by add -m parameter. Below is how I get CM-10.1.3 RC1

$ repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm-10.1

$ repo init -m cm-10.1.3-RC1.xml

$ repo sync

It works on CM but AOKP or other rom may vary depend on where cm-10.1.3-RC1.xml is. In CM this file is in .repo/manifest/ directory at your repo root.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] leolawliet:
Awesomeness! I don't mind that sd emulate is still enabled, to see PAC on 4.4 would be so worhwhile.

By the way, my cm repo fully synced, and I successfully compiled CM10.2 for P769 ^_^

I followed your instructions, it was the same exact thing that was being done on my laptop via teamviewer with help from others. I pretty much got to watch and learn how it got done :)

I honestly thought it would take up more space, but it only took up about 12GB of HDD space. I got my repo set for CM and I'm pretty happy about it. It was frustrating at first, I almost rage quit lol..

I attached a screenshot of the finished ROM. I'm thinking the next thing I wanna do for p769 is AOSPA, it hasn't been done yet and it would be nice to have more options :)

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z51:
Is the G2 better? I dont wanna jump ship and be disappointed. I have a red S4 and am fairly bored with it. The whole locked bootloader thing sucks. Dont get me wrong, I like the phone but have simply become bored with it. What would you do?

TapaTalked
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayochs:
I have a gs4 on Verizon as well. I switch between that and my dna for some change up. my gs4 is rooted though, so I've been enjoying custom roms... but to be honest, the only thing I like about the phone anymore is it's smaller footprint and it's camera. I hate amoled screens now especially since my gs4 status bar is beginning to burn in already after only having it since the end of may... and i just hate the look of amoled. sure pure black is great but the colors suck.

the camera kills my dna though, and that's why I still like it. but the g2 camera from the review I read on phone arena yesterday, seems to be on par or better than the gs4 so I'm excited.

plus look how snappy the g2 is compared to the laggy s4. my s4, even in custom roms, is still choppy and annoying.

gs4 has amazing battery life tho, and kills my dna, but the g2 should be even better. my gs4 and dna both heat up like crazy so here's hoping the g2 runs cooler!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] katamari201:
If you want something different, go for a Windows Phone or iPhone. The GS4 is already the best thing on Android. The LG G2 isn't much better. If you think the GS4 is laggy, then Android will lag no matter what even on a faster Snapdragon 800, which really isn't that much faster than a 600. 400mhz more isn't gonna mean jack for lag, because its not the processor causing it. Everything else is identical. Cheap plastic body. Slightly bigger screen. Same shape. Same UI design and features aside from some color choices. The LG G2 is even more boring than the GS4 when it first came out. LG isn't shy about copying Samsung, so it is basically just their version of the S4.

If you wanna stay with Android, the Xperia Z1 is also coming out this month, with a 20MP camera and a very different design than the plastic Korean phones. The UI is different too, although I don't like Sony's Timescape UI. IF you wanna be a rebel, Oppo is announcing the N1 later this month and probably releasing it next month. It should have a big camera sensor and big screen. Seems to be very easy to customize and install ROMs on if you don't like the gaudy colors of their COLOR ROM.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z51:
If windows didnt suck so bad I might. I'm just saying ive never gotten too bored with any phone except this one. It's weird. The screen is starting to degrade a bit as well. If I don't get the G2 I'll get the 5S. Maybe the note 3 even it drops.

TapaTalked
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayochs:
dude, your lag argument is irrelevant. the gs4 doesn't lag on stock android. it lags because of touchwiz. the g2 ui is much more streamlined than touchwiz. there's no hiccups from what I've seen.

why are all the trolls hanging out around here?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xboxfanj:
Not really, Krait 400 is much faster, as is Adreno 330. The clock speed isn't everything. I believe it has a larger L2 cache.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Billy Madison:
you mistaken, it's not android lagging, it's Samsung's UI that lags. No others UI lag including MIUI, Sence etc. Only touchwiz is BAD and laggish

Haters gonna hate. LG is way above and beyond Sammy that's why you so hate it and see only what you wanna see
