Thank you. I am trying to copy the 'system folder' once I have done it, I will post the zip file so that others can do something with it.

Meanwhile, unfortunately, the IO ROOT method also not working. Since I had a bitter experience with My LG G Pro last time while rooting and flashing the custom ROMs. I don't want to mess up again. Moreover, I am not so technically sound like others in this forum. But, My SGN-1 got lot of help from the developers of this forum. So I try to do what possibly I can do.

I am new to LG (I had SGN-1, now I have Nexus 7 -2013) So I cannot so sure about the type of UI it has. I think it is very similar to LG G2 (as my friend in LG told, if I remember correctly)

I have managed to copy the system folder. I don't know whether I could able to copy whole or parts of it. Anyhow, I am sharing it. I cannot keep it open for a long time. So If you don't get link after a couple of days plus don't blame me.

Here it is:

Need some devs here ;)
[LG Optimus G Pro] syngamer96:
I'll scan through the folder just to look at it ahaha. Not a dev but I can try I guess :D

Edit: I saw a digital pen work service apk. wonder what's that. Also seeing a fm radio app, which I've not seen on stock at all lol. Everything else is mehh to me cos I'm not a dev hahaha.

Devs please come here and have a swim in the folders :D
[LG Optimus G Pro] SGCMarkus:
I'll download it as soon I'm at home, but it would be good if we could get the boot image (the kernel), but I don't know a method beside "dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot of=/storage/sdcard1/boot.img " (path to ext. SDCard may vary, I'm on Beanstalk), but I get permission denied, if I enter the command without root permissions :/

If anyone knows another method, it would be good, if you could share it :)

How about the kdz beta file itself?

Can you request the person who works in LG you contacted to get you the kdz file on a flash drive or a cloud storage drive or anything? :confused: :p The firmware directly to flash would be perfect even if it is in beta.. Can't wait to try LG Kitkat on G Pro :D
[LG Optimus G Pro] Isamu_Dyson:
Damn the file is already unavailable... could someone check if the QRemote (and related apks) were updated? IF so could someone please up them somewhere so i could have a look? ^_^
[LG Optimus G Pro] SGCMarkus:
Maybe I found a way to (at least) get temporary root :)

you could copy a su file (normally located in /system/bin) to your sdcard, or wherever you have permissions to write, and in the terminal or adb shell, you could navigate to that folder and enter ./su to execute that file. I'm not sure if it works on a non-rooted phone (I tested it on my phone, but it's already rooted).

I attached the su file I used (it's from Beanstalk 4.4.2), I hope it works :)

if so, could you extract and upload the boot image?

Edit: it's possible that you have to change the permissions of that file

chmod 777 su should do that :)
[LG Optimus G Pro] henslo:
Can't just use Vroot? Get full root and do a system dump. Maybe a Dev here could make a flashable zip out of it.

[MENTION=4389551]shanmukha24[/MENTION] since you've copied the system file using file manager i think it'll throw some extract error.

pls run this cmd in Android terminal as SU and copy that sys dump which I want to port for OG...BIG THANXX for you man...:)

tar -c /system/* >> /sdcard/system.tar

also i need boot.img file also...pls extract tat too...:good:

---------- Post added at 03:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:44 PM ----------

ya...reason is he copied the system folder directly...I've given the adb commands to extract the dump....tat will help us..:)

---------- Post added at 03:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:48 PM ----------

For extracting boot file yu need to find the boot partition..

follow this directory to get the boot partition.

/dev/block/platform/"some_folder_name_specific_to_ur_device"/by-name

inside that you can see the partition number of boot...it'll be lyk mmcblkop7(this for optimus G)...for you partition number may be different...

now run this command in terminal with SU

dd if=/dev/block/"partition_number" of=/sdcard/boot.img

Again BIG THANXXX...man :good:

waiting for ur upload....this will be a big help for whole OG community...:)

[LG Optimus G Pro] galapagos:
The service center at my location (I can't reveal where) already has the version 20 (supposedly the final kitkat version) in their system. He just said wait, it will be released very soon (may vary depending on the region though).

[LG Optimus G Pro] shanmukha24:
.

Sure Keshav, I do. Thanks a lot for you and your friend.

But somehow I feel radio/modem made for AT&T version is causing problems for Indian users. Network (now only the data connection is the problem) occasionally drops and it takes some time to connect. It was the case with the JB too. But once the Indian (E988) custom rom (v5) installed this problem has gone. So, I am eagerly waiting for custom rom with Indian modem/radio to be built for this amazing phone.

Once again thanks to Keshav. The credits goes to him for having my phone KITKAT.

I'm certainly not holding my breath for an update anytime soon at least not official updates. All the manufactures are like this... they push out phones faster than they implement updates. In a way it's cool if you're always buying new gear but it sucks for most folks unless you rock a Nexus device. I had a HTC One X+ and those are still stuck on 4.1.1 and Sense 4+ that was a flagship phone that's not even a year old and it's been pushed back and forgotten since the One released. Sadly with the G2 out now I think the G Pro will be forgotten too as far as LG is concerned. At least we have the bootloader unlocked now so it doesn't really matter to me for this phone at least. I enjoy 4.3 Paranoid Android immensely :)

[Android 4.4 Kit-Kat: check which devices will receive the update]

See if your machine will receive the new version of Android

The major release of Android 4.4 Kit - Kat is scheduled for this month. Surely , all Android users are waiting for that day with great anticipation ! The new version of the OS, based on Linux Kernel that supports new devices with little memory , is at hand. And then , is curious to know if your phone will get the update the new version of Android ?

To start , let's talk about those devices that are in the update right . Those who have Nexus devices can expect the upgrade to Android 4.4 . Those who own the Nexus 4 , 7 , 7 (2013 ) , 10 (2012 ) will be the lucky ones !

Others who have great chance to get the update are the main apparatus of large factories . These have 99 % chance to receive the new Android . Are these : Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and S4 . LG : LG G2 , G PAD , Optimus G,

Optimus G Pro

Now Sony : Sony Xperia Z , Xperia Z1 , Z Ultra . Also the HTC ONE , ONE Mini HTC and Moto X.

Still others who are likely to receive the update are: Galaxy Nexus , Galaxy Mini S4 , S4 Active , Sony Xperia ZQ , Galaxy S3 , S3 Mini , Note 2 , Motorola RAZR Motorola RAZR D1 and D3 .

However , what I found most interesting is that Google is interested in older devices . According to a statement from Google itself "the interest is that all of them have the incredible experience of using the Kit - Kat Android 4.4 on their devices ." Thus , this new update will encourage not only those with newer devices , but users with older devices . Usually when a new OS is released , it is designed to run with the new hardware in order to boost the sale of more modern equipment . Glad to know that Google cares about all of their customers , not only those who are always with the latest releases. Remembering that still will depend of manufacturers and their customizations for each device
