[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gflare:
I'll always use a screen protector, even though I'm very careful with the devices. To me, since I already take very good care of the device - I'm extra picky on getting a screen protector that is very thin and clear. The device has curved glass towards the edges, so don't expect that to be covered unless you get one of those heat-application full coverage protectors.

This is the one I ended up going with... after 2 months or so, it's still fantastic. If you are familiar with the old Reallook protectors, this one's identical to that. Static application, plain and simple, thin with no orange peel.

Thanks for the tip. Those are cheap, I'll grab a pack of them to get by for now and give me some time to figure out if there are better ones. The whole tempered glass thing has me intrigued but a quick search showed they seem to want to hit those curved edges which causes them to not work well either.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gflare:
Yeah I was really thinking about the tempered glass also, but I was worried about thickness and feel (as it wouldn't cover the edges either) - and eventually decided against it.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xymay:
With today's technology, the phones don't need screen protector at all, but if you insist on running a screen protector, I'd suggest tempered screen protector as the ordinary ones are even not protective enough than the screen itself. One thing you should also consider is, running a tempered screen protector will make the touch reponse insensitive according to my personal experience. ;)
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flyinion:
Well, I thought I didn't need one on the phone I had before the Moto X, a Lumia 1020 that is also supposed to use Gorilla Glass 3. I think I mentioned already I have a Galaxy Nexus with Samsung's version of GG2 that had no screen protector for the last 4 months or so that I used it daily before getting the Lumia and it had no problems with scratches. The Lumia however in the same time started getting what you see in the attached picture. That picture is today after owning for a year and doing nothing differently than the Gnexus. The only other thing ever in the same pocket is a plastic eye drop bottle. In some ways it looks almost like a coating was rubbed off, but there are some good solid scratches in it as well that are not just some coating. So that's why I was paranoid about the Moto X.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
I found a 3 pack of tempered glass screen protectors for $9 USD on Amazon (with free Prime shipping!) so I caved and ordered them. It was such an amazing deal that I figured if I didn't like them it wasn't a big loss (not like $30+ name brand ones anyway). I must say, I'm pretty impressed. My only complaint is that they don't cover all the glass, but they really can't because of the curved edges on the X. It was super easy to install, and I got it on PERFECTLY with zero imperfections like dust, etc. It doesn't affect screen sensitivity at all, and since it's glass it still feels great. I'm surprising myself here, but I definitely recommend them, especially for people like me that generally hate screen protectors. For $9 for 3 of them you really can't go wrong.

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flyinion:
Can you post a pic of what it looks like? (or a link to the post if I missed it somewhere) I'm curious how "not covered" the screen is since the only place I noticeably see a curve is right at the edge where it meets the bezel.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
Here ya go. I think the screen starts sloping a little bit before it hits the obviously rounded edges. I read reviews for a bunch of different glass screen protectors and they were all either a little too small like mine, or the right size but the edges don't stick right because of the sloped glass. I bought one from a different manufacturer for my iPhone 6 as well and it has the same issue. The screen protector I have for it is just as small as the one for the Moto X because it too has rounded edges. It was annoying at first (on both phones) but I've gotten used to it and it doesn't bother me any more. I'm still not sure if I'm going to keep using them though, as I still prefer a bare screen.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flyinion:
Ah ok. Thanks for the pic, that looks like the same coverage as the Mr. Shield PET protectors I just bought. So I think I could live with that. Yeah I'd rather go without anything, but after my experience with that Lumia and GG3 I'm just paranoid. I've never had any other phone do that, and I would expect a screen protector to look just as bad after a few months if not worse so that makes it really confusing to me that it happened.

Hi all,

Today, I proudly present GomdoLight KitKat for KOREAN LG G / G2 / G3 / G3A / G3cat6 / Gflex / GK / Gpro / Gpro2 / LTE3 / Vu2 / Vu3 / Gpad7LTE, one of the most widely used (with 20,000+ users approximately) stock-based custom firmware in South Korea.

GomdoLight is more than 3 year old already (first version released on 19th December 2012), and is very mature.

Technically speaking GomdoLight is NOT a complete ROM, but rather a large-scale patch, which modifies official stock firmware to remove all the unnecessary components preloaded by operator/manufacturer, and reorganizes key system parts to 'basic' Android OS with manufacturer's flavor. For some devices GomdoLight's own specialized tool 'GomdoLight Sideloader' can make it possible to install GomdoLight directly over the stock firmware, even without rooting or flashing custom recovery!

GomdoLight is compatible with the following devices (BOLD indicates GomdoLight Sideloader support - no root required)

LG Optimus G: LG-F180S, LG-F180K, LG-F180L ("G")

LG G2: LG-F320S, LG-F320K, LG-F320L ("G2")

LG G3: LG-F400S, LG-F400K, LG-F400L ("G3")

LG G3A: LG-F410S ("G3A")

LG G3 Cat.6: LG-F460S, LG-F460K, LG-F460L ("G3")

LG G Flex: LG-F340S, LG-F340K, LG-F340L ("Gflex")

LG GK: LG-F220K ("GK")

LG G Pro: LG-F240S, LG-F240K, LG-F240L ("Gpro")

LG G Pro 2: LG-F350S, LG-F350K, LG-F350L ("Gpro2")

LG Gx: LG-F310L, LG-F310LR ("Gx")

LG Optimus LTE3: LG-F260S ("LTE3")

LG Optimus Vu2: LG-F200S, LG-F200K, LG-F200L ("Vu2")

LG Vu 3: LG-F300S, LG-F300K, LG-F300L ("Vu3")

LG G Pad 7.0 LTE: LG-V410 ("Gpad7LTE")

A very thorough and extensive (probably, the most extensive on entire xda) manual is provided at the download page, which contains literally everything you need to know to install GomdoLight. FAILURE TO READ THIS DOCUMENT BEFORE INSTALLING WILL ALWAYS LEAD TO VARIOUS UNEXPECTED PROBLEMS. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. Needless to say, I WILL NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS ALREADY ADDRESSED IN THIS DOCUMENT.

Due to xda forum's limits (in functionality) I am posting a link to the separate (external) DOWNLOAD PAGE. There is no way I can link to each section in the document in xda posts, since xda does not support HTML tag. However some portions of the document are also introduced here.

What's the difference between this rom and other Stock roms in the forum? Genuinely questioning, not flaming. :)
[G2 Android Development] juniecho:
They are stock-based ROMs that reinstalls the OS. This one is a large-scale patch that modifies the exiting stock firmware, and add some very unique features. It has a very extensive startup script set made my me, and the script set gives GomdoLight unparalleled flexibility and disaster recovery capabilities.

GomdoLight does not focus on hacks and tweaks, but rather on usability and stability.

[G2 Android Development] GalaticStryder:
Just for F320, guys.

Hold on your horses, first of all this is not a ROM as stated and I guess you own the D803 variant once you're on Canada, I wouldn't try it once it plays around with the system partitions and those are quite different between Korean and worldwide variants. IDK much about these scripts for the KK stock but I definitely would not try it.

If they're just a bunch of scripts they could be Open Source for contribution, couldn't they? It would also be better for contribution and porting to other variants although I think we rarely have people here that use the pure stock KK once we have a lot of custom AOSP and good LG based L/KK ROMs.
[G2 Android Development] juniecho:
1. partition layout is usually not important with gomdolight.

2. it is not just a bunch of scripts. as of now, the script set EXPECTS the full gomdolight system installed and it is specialized only for gomdolight. however anyone is welcome to port the script set to other devices.

gomdolight is developed to unleash the true potential of pure stock KK, and prove that stock KK can be indeed useful without system tweaks or such apps if aided by just some specialized scripts.
[G2 Android Development] cangri87:
Would really love this for my D801 variant.. I love stability and this with stock rooted sounds nice..

i upgraded my phone to 4.4.4 weeks ago, but when i needed to root it -> i had to downgrade to 4.4.2 and make the root then upgrade again to 4.4.4 using flashtool.

when i made the downgrade and upgrade again, the steps included flashing the kernel only, and at the end the root was working nicely.

But sprint is a no go? (thank for the help guys) I know t-mobile and att are similar and Verizon and sprint are similar, but I don't understand the provisioning thing very much... I thought that was an old thing they did before it was all done thru sim cards, as I understand it now, Verizon, t mobile, and at&t assuming the phone is unlocked and has the correct frequencies available, should all be interchangeable? But sprint can't work unless the phone is a sprint exclusive due to provisioning?

Both still run on CDMA lte is for data and some voice only. CDMA I believe is still used for activation. They need to provision or "okay" phones to be used on their network.

I want to know which one is best to update first as I am still quite new to the whole android system.

Which one should I update first to prevent issues on my phone?: the android version to kitkat or the EMUI?

Also, does updating the android version change the firmware?
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] tileeq:
Updating the android does upgrade the emui and changes the firmware too. Strarting from B10x to B132 firmwares are running android jellybean 4.2.2 with emui version 1.6, from B506 to B508x are firmwares with android kitkat 4.4.2 and emui 2.0 (but these are Chinese ones), from B510 to B521 are kitkats with emui 2.3 (international ones) and from B704 and above are kitkats with emui 3.0 (both chinese and international can be found).
