>Can I flash other firmwares like V10l for example, even tho my phone is branded (but bumped)?

There is a guide on how to properly install an OTA update (read: .KDZ and .TOT files) onto your phone. You can read the guide here:

http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/development/psa-stop-taking-ota-updates-update-t2909412

>Do I need to flash a specific firmware (compatible to the custom rom) before I flash a custom Rom?

As far as I know the kernel is the only important thing you have to really keep an eye out from. It is very important to flash the correct kernel for your phone model. Other things like whether it is an 16GB or 32GB model, provider etc.. is not clear to me if that is important too.

I think it's best to just follow the threads here on XDA and wait until there are going to be releases of major ROMs and more information about these subjects.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acparker18:
In short, no and no. If the latest firmware for your branding is 10c, do not flash any updates for another model number.

http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/development/psa-stop-taking-ota-updates-update-t2909412

That Guide will show you how to take the kdz or tot file, when an official one for your model number is available, and safely flash it without losing TWRP. As the title of that guide warns, never take an OTA update while Bump'd and never flash a stock kdz or tot file. You must follow that guide exactly to create a safe zip file to flash.

As for your second question, in the original Bump thread it states that this is not like Loki and that you do not need to be on any specific firmware to flash a custom rom as the kernel will come pre-Bump'd and require nothing from the end user.

Hope that answers your questions, feel free to ask more here anytime. And thank you so much for putting this in the proper thread and having legitimate questions that are well justified. I know there is a lot of talk about the Bump method, mostly trolls, but just know that this phone is far more "unlocked" than the majority of others.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sunnymacer:
Thanks to both of you.

I already blocked OTA`s properly. Its just very confusing because of the "suffix" of the firmware like "A6MD". I wasnt sure if that has to match up, since its unlocked.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lavoslav:
I wouldn't recommend you to manually download firmware by yourself especially if you are begginner as you said you are. You could brick your phone if one tiny thing is done wrong. But you can try updating it using LG PC Suite. I got my International model 2 months ago and it was on basic firmware version v10a. Trying to update firmware with the phone itself just showed me message that latest firmware is installed. After that I installed LG PC Suite from LG's website if I remember correctly and installed it. I just plugged my phone to pc and ran LG PC Suite and then it said that I can update my firmware version to v10l. :D

So I recommend you to try with LG PC Suite first, I think its your safest bet to get correct latest firmware for your G3 variant.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sunnymacer:
But this method seems pretty so simular to generic OTA and would probably screw up my custom recovery and/or root access? Or am I getting something wrong here?
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] livecouk:
Here what happened.

Actually I bricked up my phone few months back. Then I tried a lot at time but nothing worked... But approx 10 days back I tried to flash again with new KitKat with rsd 6.1.4 it worked yupee.. But I hate that KitKat..... Sick better life gaming problem etc etc..I tried same way as gotta to kitKat...but preflash security downgrade error I m getting... I have BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED!....

So the left most screen is this news thingy that is similar to flipboard; also when i flip from screen to screen they are no longer circular (like the note 2 - what I mean is when i get to window n; it doesn't then go to window 1) can i make it circular (even if I can't remove the flipboard) ?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bsweetness:
To disable Flipboard Briefing, long press on your home screen to bring up the home screen settings. Uncheck the box for Flipboard Briefing. That will get rid of it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jake21:
Ok missed that option; it works like a charm (hope they add it to the tablet); still can't do the circular thing which I like but not end of world.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rippley05:
Endless scroll is what you're looking for. I don't think it can be done on the stock launcher. It'd annoying, I agree.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jake21:
note 2 had it; also on the note 2 icons look nicer; less blocky and tend to be dark with white letters instead of white with dark letters.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bsweetness:
Unless there's something specific you like about Touch Whiz, have you considered installing a custom launcher? You can change the icons, the scrolling, and a ton of other things. I'm running Nova and love it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jake21:
yea i thought about switching to nova; not quite ready to go that far yet but maybe eventually.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bsweetness:
It's extremely quick and easy. It's something you could install, try, and if you don't like it you can go straight back to Touch Whiz. Your Touch Whiz home screens will be exactly as left them.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] usmaak:
Nova's actually really nice. I just installed it and got it running on my SGS3, and it's given me no problems at all. Unlike most people, I don't mind TW. My phone is rooted and I'm running a TW custom ROM that just removes a bunch of crapware. But Nova has sort of breathed new life in to my phone. When I do get a new Note or Nexus 6, I'll probably go right back to Nova. I even paid the $4 for the extra features.

I have one question though. When Nova is running, does TW stop running and release memory? Or does Nova just run on top of TW, and use up more memory?

HI all, how's everyone? not been back for some time,

I need some help from you guys if possible.

I want a tablet, my partner has an ipad mini, I like it, long battery life, clear and cool to the touch, (ie don't get too warm on long usage)

Can anyone recommend me something?

I have made my own (very brief short list)

Lenovo Yoga

Xiaomi Mipad,

Pipo P8

Fire 7.7

My criteria is this,

7.9-8.9 inch screen

4:3 format.

stable Os,

ideally full android, so not sure if the fire can be rooted.

quad core, and can hold its own when running any intense apps.

won't get too hot when on long usage.

long battery life,

if possible 2Gb ram,

if no MMC expansion then need at least 32Gb

no more than £200, and as per my list, will look into oversea models

I do like the nexus 9, but out of my budget any other suggestions.
[General Topics] LiamAtkins90:
Mipad best bang for buck, infact, the price and the specs you get are bloody brilliant! Really really great value, I don't know how Xiaomi get away with it :p

Its about £230 (some places £180 but + import tax could be more, I say use EBay because you have buyer protection etc) I'm looking into buying the Mipad myself, (I currently have an LG G Pad, heavily mod'd)

The only downside (which is to be expected) is the OS on the Mipad MIUI (on Xiaomi phones Mi2 Mi3 Mi4 its great, but on thus Mipad its half finished, buggy etc.)

But hey I enjoy a challenge :D
[General Topics] springning:
Lenovo Yoga 8 is very good. Quad-Core, Android 4.2 Operating System, Battery Life – Up to 18 Hours, but if you want to play games with a higher experience, I would recommend you another game tablet (JXD S7800B), 7.0 inches, quad core.
[General Topics] Stuart Little:
I actually would recommend you the iPad Mini 3, because it's almost matching all your requirements except that it is iOS.

Apple will really ensure that you're requirements will be finished.!

[General Topics] LiamAtkins90:
For an EBook type of device I would suggest the Tesco Hudl 2

I know what your thinking.... No way dude!!

But I was surprised at how good this piece of kit is for like £120.

Not all quad core is good.this machine uses MTK8382 which is a very slow quad core machine.

And It's pretty Energy Hungry,It only could go on up to 10-12Hr.

Hi, I wish to inquire if any one here has experienced the following issued in this ROM- if not I shall move to this unofficial version from the official Mokee version that I currently am on.<br />

<br />

1- People you call complain that your voice is very feeble.<br />

2- While doing video chat on Skype/ Viber the other party complains that their own voice echoes back to them<br />

3- The bluetooth connection for media doesn't connect even though the phone signal is connected and working fine.<br />

4- The camera is not as good at the Stock MIUI version. I do realise that there is a zip package for the stock MIUI camera but that's outdated.<br />

<br />

Please point out what is the difference between the official and unofficial version of this ROM.<br />

<br />

Any feedback would be much appreciated.<br />

Unknown Loss 3 GB of internal storage

hello I have flashing mokee rom latest (release) 12052014

it has succesfully installed via cwm 6, in the first boot the internal storage says there is 5,4-5,5 GB space left, then I uninstall junk file like baidu, cleanmaster, mokee store etch and uninstall system file like apollo, camera, browser and dsp equalizer via systemappremover pro

then on the second boot, the loading boot time is longer than the first boot time, and the internal storage free space has gone to only 2,4 GB, and I don't even know what files/application/cache use that much of storage, here is the screenshot attached

what is the victim of this?

by the way in the first install, I flash mini gapps file with cwm, then when I wipe the data and cache then reflashed the rom on second time, magically the gapps data was still there and pre-installed on the first boot, then when I reflashed it for third the gapps data gone, I flash the gapps file again then reflashed again because that memory problem occurs and fourth time the gapps data was pre-installed again, I'm confused

[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] Dr.unkenstein:
Hi, I am using Mokee for about a week. but I have had 1 issue. Before that I want to say about how great this ROM is, it is very stable, lagless and no app has crashed yet. It's at this moment much better ROM than Ressurection which is the only Lollipop one I tried except Mokee. I believe this one is the most stable of all Lollipop ROMs actually. About the issue, I was browsing privacy guard in advanced mode an noticed that Camera app was used 6 times at some moment, but I am 100% sure it wasn't by me or anyone else because no one can unlock my phone except me. Isn't that suspicious ? and that's not all, it gets even worse; I noticed that Android system used Camera 3 times at one moment, and again it wasn't by me or anyone else. If that's not suspicious, then nothing is. So I deleted the stock camera app and installed a custom one and now for 2 days camera wasn't triggered without me. Besides that, why can't we enter permissions of Android system and some other system core apps ?

I could manage those permissions back on CM11. Anyone knows if there is a way ? I have turned off everything about location, and even with system tuner and disable service, but Android system is still monitoring my location which means it has permission to do it. But how is that possible if location is turned off completely ? Besides those unusual behaviors, the ROM is perfect.
