Dalvik and ART are the runtimes that actually run the apps on your phone. Faster runtime=faster phone

Qualcomm has a dalvik optimized for its devices that performs fairly well.

ART is Google's next generation runtime which is fast, but not quite stable yet and doesn't support certain applications.

EDIT: oh he beat me :(
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bleached45:
At the moment, ART is still a bit experimental. Dalvik is more tested and probably the better choice because not every app/mod works with ART (if you have any plans to use the Xposed framework, it will not work with ART).

Do you mean external memory or internal? I know the paths changed in 4.4. The external card is now at /storage/sdcard1, many apps may not be used to the new paths yet. If it is internal... :confused:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] IOmega666:
I mean that it isn't recognized by the computer, when i was using LG Stock FW the PC just mounted the phone as MTP, but now it doesn't :S

Had some trouble to install PSX on e975. But after i changed a line in the updater script from "geehrc" to "e975" it worked without problems.

Thanks for the roms guys!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MiZrY:
PSX 4.4.1 coming later today/tonight. Think Carbon 4.4.1 can be built too.... but I'll start with PSX.

Still working on PSX Nexus 4 kernels.... porting not working out. Gonna try building it from base mako kernel.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] NightMare870:
Nice, looking forward to carbon 4.4.1. I've been on carbon 4.4 since release and it's awesome
[Sprint LG Optimus G] iamterence:
Anybody have any ideas for a fix for SMS splitting? The MMS.zip fix doesn't work on 4.4+ I don't think :/
[Sprint LG Optimus G] goast:
Could you add the ability to change the home back and menu key? It's in omni... don't know if you could pull from source... Being new to this phone seems like it should be a standard thing lol..
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MiZrY:
I have no clue.

As stated in OP, xboxfanj and myself are not going to change the ROM source, unless it's absolutely necessary to get it to build (it has been necessary a few times already). We are keeping it the way the ROM devs intended it. There is probably an xposed module that can add features like that anyways.

Also at the moment that's more work then I would like to commit myself to. Just building PSX/Carbon for 3 different model OG's (that means I have to build 6 times), keeping them updated, fixing issues, responding to the forums.....plus trying to bring more kernel options to our devices is a lot of work. I'm also learning as I'm doing all this. 4 weeks ago.... I did not know how to do any of this.

I do plan on trying to build other ROM's as well.... but sometimes it's a lot of work to get it to work for all 3 models. So for more ROMs and different kernels.... patience is key. :highfive:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] nchc:
Thanks MiZrY, really happy you are supporting all LGOG's. But please dont burden yourself supporting too many more roms or it may become a chore and you'll burnout... Maintain quality not quantity i suppose (in roms and life balance).
[Sprint LG Optimus G] IOmega666:
I'm gonna quote myself, i can't get the device connected as MTP, with Stock FW i can but with this ROM and others 4.4 or CM i just can't, device isn't showing on Device Manager as MTP or other thing, don't know what to do.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Maestertk:
I had that problem momentarily, I switched off USB debugging and it fixed for some reason. Now I can have it on and it still works. Idk.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MiZrY:
Power went out at my house for awhile today right as I was starting to build PSX 4.4.1.... Will get it later, bed time.... Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
[Sprint LG Optimus G] davevinci:
Skip 4.4.1, google just released 4.4.2 :p we can wait :)) a build with less bugs is better.. Just sayin...

---------- Post added at 07:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:20 PM ----------

Well did u try uinstalling the reinstall lg drivers? Also check if u have fast charge and usb debugging activated, turn those off
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MiZrY:
Power going on and off at my house.... So taking me longer then I would like to get everything built... I did get 4.4.1 on geeb working before power went out again. Hopefully I can get everything built and uploaded today.

Can't wait it like Christmas morning
[Sprint LG Optimus G] FcoEnrique:
AMAZING! more cool ROMs! great work man! about to try those.

Can't see nothing related to in the OP, but, do we need the modified TWRP or is fine to go with the old 2.5?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] goast:
OK after lgpnst I now am running rastakat....thanks guys..so far has a lot of features... May want to look into omni to pull the changing of compactive keys buttons all together...I find it very useful has I like to move back button to right side...thanks for all the hard work on these awesome new projects!!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] xboxfanj:
I'll add that to the OP. Use one of Chad's.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] goast:
Also I can't get 3g before and after APN fix...any advice?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] oohaylima:
Just got done installing Rastakat with CWM. The ROM actually runs really smooth. I like the fact that a few options are already a part of 4.4. What's even cooler is that, when the camera tries to focus, it'll actually use the flash to help adjust it! Freakin awesome! No more forcing the flash to turn on while capturing during low light.

Gonna flash PSX now.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jblazea50:
I actually like it that way. Don't like the bright lights especially when using it at night.

Which rom do you prefer between the two?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] xboxfanj:
Built em both today, so haven't tested a ton, but probably psx. It just seems a bit speedier. Both are pretty good though. Looks like I'll need some framework commits to bring back lights. I don't know if I'll bother. You're right. It's nice without them. Linaro ROM should be out fairly soon. I've had a bunch of errors though, but most are gone. Let me know if you have any other 4.4 requests.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] oohaylima:
PSX ran just as smooth. Way more customization, which is a good thing. I noticed that the home button didn't work. Could have been a flash issue, so there's always that.

I'm really starting to like 4.4.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jblazea50:
Since PSX includes the Moto X optimized Dalvik, is it possible to still run ART?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] sharkboy0901:
Sure is, I'm on PSX with ART and its awesome.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jblazea50:
How can you use the Google Experience Launcher?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] iamterence:
Once again man, you are a godsend to the Android/XDA community. Your efforts will never be matched, nor unappreciated. Cheers, mate. :beer:

Back to the topic at hand, though, I see the GeeB variant has a CM11 build, if I'm not mistaken. We're starting to get quite a few 4.4 ROMs, but lacking a build ourselves. I'm just wondering if that's next in line for us? :D

Also, a special request that I would completely understand if shot down, would be a working MIUI build, 4.3 or 4.4. Our native build we had, while broken, is VERY awesome, and I miss MIUI very dearly. Just wondering if we can get another build going, or at least an update. :) I'm willing to learn and I'd do it myself, but aye, my computer's currently KIA at the moment. :(
[Sprint LG Optimus G] C2fifield:
Banks standard gapps package has it built in.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] nwsteeze:
Loving PSX so far. It's smooth and the battery life isn't too bad either. I second the rebuilding of Miui if possible. Your work here is greatly appreciated.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Greatness83:
Damn my dude you stay working for us! Thanks

a working MiUI would be great!!

Any chance you can add PDroid to a rom as well??? I miss that app :(
[Sprint LG Optimus G] goast:
How about Ubuntu touch as a possibility...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] xboxfanj:
That's on the Play Store, so I don't see a reason to include it.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] xboxfanj:
The problem there is no CDMA/LTE, so you would have no phone functionality.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] xboxfanj:
For MIUI, I'll wait til February. http://gsminsider.com/2013/11/miui-android-4-4-kitkat-february-2014/

And I can do CM if you guys want.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] goast:
How about paranoid android?... Definitely could use an official maintainer for that...its an awesome rom
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jaykishankrk:
Will you be doing Carbon build as well?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MaRkuS_538:
If it will be up before 10 pm, I'll flash it :D

[Sprint LG Optimus G] MiZrY:
I'll get to it. Trying to be an electrician and not kill myself at the moment.... while watching my 4 year old son... while PSX 4.4.1 for geespr builds.

Just so you are all aware.... it takes 1 to 1 1/2 hours for one build to compile. So.... geeb, geehrc, geespr. So 4+ hours to compile 3 versions of 1 ROM. Then I have to upload them all and my upload speeds are horrible.... really horrible. Decent D/L speed though. /shrug

If my power goes out again, I'll have to start that build from the start.

So... I'll get to Carbon, when I get to Carbon. :highfive::good::cool:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] NightMare870:
It's cool man, take your time, I appreciate you building PSX and carbon, and I completely understand that they will get done when they do, no rush at all

Same install instructions as in OP. Though flash 4.4.1 gapps.

There will probably be a system UI FC on initial boot.... but that will be the only time it happens, and won't happen on any other boot. /shrug

Lots of changes in kernel: https://github.com/chadouming/kernel_msm/commits/android-4.4
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jblazea50:
Thanks. Do we have to flash the kernel separately or included in rom?

Hope you have electricity back.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MiZrY:
Chads latest kernel is built into the rom.

Half my house is without power..... have extension cords running all over to get my PC running lol
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jblazea50:
Priorities. lol
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bleached45:
Yeah, I would definitely check the fast charge option. If you have fast charge on, it allows the phone to charge faster via USB, but it turns off mtp. Idk if it is in the ROM settings, but I know it can be toggled in the trickster mod app.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MiZrY:
Gonna rebuild PSX 4.4.1 later today... missed a possible fix for MHL, and perhaps a fix for the FC I mentioned.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] davevinci:
System UI still FC on 2nd boot.. Clean install.. Geehrc
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MiZrY:
I'll figure it out.... think it's a PSX issue as they did something funky. It's not serious though. As system UI continues to function afterwards and does not FC. Only happens on boot it seems, only happens to me once..... and I've flashed about 8 times today.

So... I'll see if the change PSX did like an hour ago will fix it.

---------- Post added at 02:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:30 AM ----------

Just noticed the screenshot

Did that happen on boot? or later on? You using gapps standard or core?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] davevinci:
Nope, i was doing facebook for about 5mins after 2nd boot and system ui fc.. The screenshot i took happened about 8mins after boot.I even tried rebooting again but the problem still persists. Im using banks standard..
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MiZrY:
I'll try rebuilding with a couple of changes today.... think it's just a minor issues with something PSX did. Want to get all bugs squashed by 4.4.2
[Sprint LG Optimus G] IOmega666:
Now i'm in serious problems, i was using the phone, normally, and then some weird black screen with green text, lot of options :S i just press vol down that was for reboot the phone but then, just a black screen and nothing, i can reboot the phone but it just shows the LG logo and then black screen, also phone isn't recognized in the PC.

It happens to me once with cm10.2. But I reboot and boot normally

[Sprint LG Optimus G] treezy26:
This happened to me which I stated in a previous topic. But I found out that if your battery is low it will do this. Well in my personal situation it has. I thought my phone was done for until I let it sit and I know if you hold power plus volume down/up (take turns) it will eventually come on. Again this is my personal experience and yours may vary.

idk how I got here...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MiZrY:
Fixed the PSX 4.4.1 system FC issue plus also added MHL support (hopefully)

4.4.2 is starting to roll out on servers so, I may just wait until it's devs catch up.... I'll think about it.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] NightMare870:
Do you still plan on updating carbon or are you focusing on PSX?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MiZrY:
I'll get to it soon.... between all the crazy stuff that has happened in the past few days at my house (electrical issues), and Google rolling out updates left and right.... I just haven't had the time. I should be able to get a Carbon update sometime this week though.

No worries man. Happens to everyone. There's over sixty pages here, so we're all bound to miss something.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] geokilla:
Dunno if you wanna wait till Android 4.4.2.... No Apps Ops! For that reason alone I'm sticking with Android 4.3... That and it's more stable and feature packed at the moment.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MiZrY:
They did not remove app ops... They just made it harder to get to.

However, there is already an xposed module on the xposed installer that already unlocks app ops for 4.4.2....
[Sprint LG Optimus G] hazedabeast:
How's the battery life on psx geespr?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jblazea50:
So is app ops not going to be present under settings for PSX? I use ART and xposed isn't compatible.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MiZrY:
With the right settings, I get over 4 hours display time. Could probably hit 5 hours... But that all depends on how you set your phone up.

I don't know, there us no 4.4.2 PSX yet. I'm sure they will probably figure something out.

Also psx has motox dalvik patch. So dalvik is pretty damn fast. I stopped using ART once they added that... I can't tell the difference. Plus there is too many cool xposed mods that I would rather use, then use ART.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] mcog:
You shouldn't have to lgnpst. This has happened to me many times. You can get back into recovery mode written the power button and volume up. Just plug the phone inn and let it sit for a bit, it will sit oh the black lit screen. After 5mins or so do the power button and volume upuntil you get it to work. Once the bootloader screen is up do volume down twice and the power button. Once it starts to boot into recovery unplug the power cord until the twrp screen comes up.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] danielgava:
In e975 (geehrc) it is terrible! Despite the Rom is working very well, I had to go back to Epsylon v3, that with the same kind of use gives me about 10 hours of battery, against Just 6 on psx... cyanogenmod 11 nightlyes are a little bit better in matter of battery (not enough tough) and stability, but have fewer customization.

For now, I'm with Epsylon v3 and xposed framework installed, running some modules that bring me very close to a KitKat expediency, but without lags or fails.

Would be great, in fact, if LG deliver an official KitKat.

See a screenshot: the launcher is from Motorola with the widget circles.

So, this happened to me before, what i did was reboot using vol down and power, and then starting the phone in fastboot mode, with vol up and power, and then just hit the power button and the phone would start normally, but i couldn't do it this time, couldn't enter fastboot mode, i download kdz updater and a .kdz file from Claro Brazil, cause is not 1GB to see if i can flash it, hopefully i didn't, i just fell asleep and by morning i just tried again to enter in fastboot, i could, i plugged the phone in the charger and it just start up normally.

Hope this doesn't happen again, that black screen with green letters, i thought, ok, this is the time, phone is gonna die.

Only last thing, can i upgrade without wipping? I have PSX for GEEHRC.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] danielgava:
If you gonna install the new version of psx you can... I did it once.

[Sprint LG Optimus G] MiZrY:
Battery life on PSX is not "terrible"......

I get 30 hours with over 4 hours display time with PSX, that is something I am able to achieve on just about every ROM because of the way I set up my phone.

Your statement on PSX's battery life is subjective.

---------- Post added at 09:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:33 AM ----------

I would not advise to dirty flash, as just about every issue that has been stated with the ROM has been because of a dirty flash (can even cause battery issues and wakelocks). So if you do dirty flash..... don't come here and complain about an issue as I will just tell you to flash clean.

I'm making changes to be able to build PSX 4.4.2 today anyways, so I'd wait to upgrade until I post that. And yes... you will need to clean flash.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] danielgava:
I'll have to quote myself because you didn't read it right: I said that "with the same kind of use" I get 4 extra hours on stock Rom. Of course any statement on battery life would be subjective, unless you have the same base of comparison, whit is the case.

I'm not here criticizing your work, whit is great by the way, but seems you're misunderstand me since the beginning.

I'm not a dumb kid that just got he's new device out of the box. I'm not a developer like you either, but I know very well how to play around with flashing and customization.

The dirt flash that I've mentioned above was made after the "complainings" as you said (they ware not) about battery life that I made before.

In all threads that I have participated one of the major concerns of the developers ware always about battery life, since defy, passing thru xt910, xt890 and recently the e975.

My mistake, if I had one, was to think you would have the same worry about this issue, but it seems it's not an issue for you anyway.

Than, as I said back there, I'm not bothering you with this anymore, but I do not think that you can censure me because I'm expressing my opinion to another user.

I'll continue reading this thread us I have interest on it, and will keep trying to help when I can, and I HOPE you stop treating me like an intruder.

Enviado de meu LG-E975 usando Tapatalk
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MiZrY:
Telling someone to dirty flash is bad advise. While it can be done, it's never a good idea. So expect me to comment on it if you advise people to do something I do not agree with.

As for battery... it's all subjective. Everyone's opinion when it comes to battery life is garbage no matter what ROM you use, as there is entirely too many variables involved. The radio you use, apps, ROM features ect .... all affect battery life. So you can't claim battery life in any ROM/kernel combo is terrible when the vast majority of battery issues are caused by the user. I get the same battery life in every ROM I've ever used for this device since 4.2 (that is my garbage opinion). Garbage in = garbage out.

Also I don't care if you criticize my work. I never planned on posting any of these ROMs anyways. No offense to anyone, but I don't make the ROMs for everyone, I do it for myself. :p I just wanted to learn more.... and was convinced by a couple people to share it.

No need for me to discuss it any further...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Smyc151:
And we're all glad you did! Thanks for all the awesome work you do! :good:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] iamterence:
Agreed, man. There are a lot of us, like myself, that just take these ROMs as is, because the developers are doing a volunteer service to the community, and aren't required to fix anything if you don't want. Nobody owes anything to anybody. We just appreciate all the work and use the aftermarket softwares provided to us, unconditionally. :)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MiZrY:
Look what I done did.....

Coming to your device soon lol
[Sprint LG Optimus G] IOmega666:
I know that it's stated that you better clean install than upgrading without wipe, but i've flashed some many ROMs since 2009 with the G1 and a few were OK with upgrading with not wipe so i just asked.

Really glad with your work, gonna wait for 4.4.2 to clean install.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MiZrY:
Yeah no worries. In many cases it won't cause issues, but the thing to remember with dirty flashing is it may affect things you may never even notice. Some files may remain, that an upgrade may no longer use but uses because the file remains.... lots of funky things can happen. That's why almost all devs the first thing they ask on any bug/issue report is if you flashed dirty or not. It's absolutely no fun for a developer to spend hours looking for a fix to a bug to just find out that the person dirty flashed.... and there is no bug.

Anyways..... PSX 4.4.2 is almost done building for geespr, geeb is done, and once geehrc is built, all will be uploaded and posted. So about 4 hours tops from now. :good::highfive::cool:

After all that I'll sync up with Carbon and go from there..... then continue my attempts at getting some Nexus 4 kernels to work.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Smyc151:
Sweet! Thanks! Will this include the camera focus fix, or do we have to do it manually?

Thanks again for offering us these ROMs!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MiZrY:
Probably still have to do it manually.

All install instructions are the same as in OP except:

Probably a good idea to flash clean

Use banks gapps 4.4.2 link is in OP, also you will probably have to flash banks addons for 4.4.2 calender/browser if you wish for those apps to sync

Also use banks Camera (it is included in the standard package)

Anyone with MHL if you can test to see if it works as some things were added to hopefully get it to work. I can't test it.

App ops works, google cant hide it good enough from us :)
