I have an LG Optimus M and it would be appreciated if someone could develop a ROM for it. You can find the LG Optimus community at androidforums .com/lg-optimus-m Thanks alot.
I recently purchased the Optimus M and am seconding this request for a ROM.
I would also like to see this happen. Thanks in advance!
Maybe you guys should setup a beer fund.
By the way, I'll have a look at it.
Edit:
And yes, I've taken this from a topic on Androidforums, but it is true. I don't have an Optimus M myself, so:
1) I need a dump of your system.img (replacement apks for people that deleted them by accident).
2) Boot.img (which includes the necessary files like the kernel).
3) Splash.img (to take a look or change metro splash screen.
4) recovery.img (to make a modified recovery).
Edit2:
And a phone to test it on. Beer fund anyone?
i have manage to get a bin not img file and all of the apks
ill send it through message

Thanks dude, that files are vital! I've already found a custom recovery, now I'll just have to optimize it for the Optimus M. The key-layout is different but that can easily be fixed by replacing default.prop (or build.prop, not completely sure. I can't check it now, I'm on another laptop now)
I'd really appreciate if people could help testing the recovery once it has been published. It won't brick your device.
I would be willing to test it, as long as nothing bad could happen.

There's a slight little chance it explodes like a nuke when it boots, but except for that little issue, it won't do any damage.
Hey, just thought I'd jump in. I'm pretty much new to smartphones. Since I found xda, I've managed to read enough to learn root explorer, root my Optimus M, delete the bloatware, change the boot, learn adwlauncher and download rom manager.
So how can I help make a custom ROM happen? I think I know enough to flash my own device, except for the recovery/backup stuff worries me.
*Also, my roommate deleted browser.apk on his optimus m (rooted obv), factory reset a few times and has the usual broke market/google problems. Any hope for his phone; he has phone insurance w/metro.
Thank you

Wait wait wait. BTW hi fellow dudes from androidfourms.
You said after the update. Is he working with the files from 2.2.1 and not 2.2?
We need a custom recovery, kernel and rom for 2.2!! Not the evil 2.2.1.
Plus the source for 2.2 for the Optimus M has been released and can be found here: www .lg.com/global/support/opensource/opensource.jsp and choosing "Mobile Phones" from the dropdown menu and typing in LGMS690
If this guy needs the 2.2 files and not the 2.2.1 file they are obtainable.
I was gonna test this recovery but not if it's the 2.2.1 version.

I'm in contact with this guy. We're discussing the plans and who does what.
I'm in contact with this guy too as he is also an active member of the androidfourms sub-forum for the Optimus M and has since downgraded his phone back to 2.2 after he gave you the Boot.img, System.img & Recovery.img. Those ones were more than likely from 2.2.1 which running stock was unabled to even be rooted.
You say you want testing done but by your wording you seem to want to keep this all hush, hush. If that's the case no bother. If you want no extra help then so be it.
I will provide he proper files for 2.2 though.

no sorry my bad does are the 2.2 files not the 2.2.1..that i pull out of the androidforums
So then this recovery is built from 2.2 files correct? And have you personally tested it?
F*** it we'll do it live!!!!! LOL!
I'm about to flash this thing to my phone even though we have no custom rom to use with it yet. Pray for a good outcome.

superuser in stock dump?
@shabbypenguin,
I was reading through your AIO root thread and it occurred to me that I had rooted prior to extracting the system dump that is posted in op as "Stock". Therefore, there is a version of superuser present in /app that I assume may not have been there as delivered. Of course, I may be making an incorrect assumption.
Is it appropriate then to call this stock, or is it a given that rooting would have been necessary to perform the dump in the first place?
I also don't know if this would affect your deodexed version?
Just wondering if this fact needs to be mentioned somewhere, unless I just did.

Second, root is a requirement for the dump and so even with the Superuser app, what you supplied is most definitely stock.

This is simply a stock from from the Photon's "sister," the Electrify. No one has even identified if there are any benefits/improvements hidden inside this ROM, much less how compatible it is with the Photon.
Just because something IS flashable doesn't mean you SHOULD flash it. OP was very clear - this is for devs only, not public consumption. If you don't know enough, then you're better off exercising some patience and waiting for further announcements.
actually im gunna guess that the man has an electrify and my cwm script is busted
I would venture to guess that you guys will have the same issue we do with the photon roms. As other members on my team verified that root, recovery, kernel and unlock work from the photon. The kernel needed wifi fixed which was pretty simple. In which I pm'd shabby about earlier. The roms also work but some things need fixed to get it working.
I don't know all the details besides what weasel told myself. But mms, 3g I believe works but going back to stock it wouldn't, eri says sprint, blur e-mail fc's and activation for sprint kept popping up to where you have to skip it. Weasel has fixed most of the stuff in the homebase port. I believe e-mail still fc's and mms is still broke.
But here is the first deodex rom weasel and myself did if you want to add it to the first post. http://2fastroms.com/viewtopic.php?f=116&t=265
Then here is the kernel shabby did with wifi fixed ready to install. Only rc-1 since wifi was broke in rc-2. If the electrify people want to install it just grab it from shabby's thread. There was reports of 3000's+ in bench's. Not sure of rom it was on but I would venture to guess our stock rom. http://2fastroms.com/viewtopic.php?f=118&t=334
Then here is the port for homebase weasel is playing with http://2fastroms.com/viewtopic.php?f=116&t=268 if you guys wanted to look at it.
i would gather a lot of frameworks issues, as with services.jar would happen between the phones.
edit: you keep saying you fixed wifi. but the only way to fix it, is by rebuilding the modules using my config file.. which only i have...
unless im missing some other way to replace it?
Hello all ... im still pretty much a noob when it comes to cell phone .. i just bought a Samsung galaxy note (bell sgh-i717m in Canada)
I wanted to have access to Root for the applications and the cpu speed change (was at 1.12 ghz and supposed to be 1.5 ghz).
I read a lot of posts and found in majority things from Mashi, Da_G etc.
After i tried one method with the odin 1.85 and file AT&T Note Root.zip (532 meg) which was said to just give root access and not change the whole phone ...
After rebooting my phone ... ATT animation at the boot !!! and after that a big big lag when i try to type in text or try to type in number even on dial pad to make a call !!!
HELLPPP !! lol i would not mean that much the AT&T animation but the whole phone with it and that HUGE lag !
Is there any way for me to bring that back to Bell stock ? if so, any of you would have that huge file for me to flash my beast back to Bell with a .tar file through ODIN or other ways if you know something that could help me ?
Update 1 ... i found this file GalaxyNoteRootI717.zip which helped me to get rid of the lag by flashing with their file but i am still stuck with AT&T applications and all = still missing the Bell system and all
Thanks in advance,
zykio.
I would help but i have no clue as how to rip the whole rom.

Here is what i got from DA_G for that purpose i know that a ton of people would like to have the Whole system and such of Bell stock like me to get it back as it was from Bell.
From DA_G
"From adb inside booted ROM:
(note system.img will be 1GB, compress it before upload)
Code:
adb shell dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p24 of=/sdcard/system.img
adb shell dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22 of=/sdcard/recovery.img
adb shell dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8 of=/sdcard/boot.img
adb pull /sdcard/system.img
adb pull /sdcard/recovery.img
adb pull /sdcard/boot.img
If you have installed my rooted recovery or kernel, don't bother pulling those images as they will have been overwritten. Currently we have everything for AT&T, Rogers kernel, and TELUS kernel. Need Rogers system/recovery, bell kernel/recovery, and telus system/recovery to build stock archives for those."
Thanks to DA_G. and thanks to you if you can make that image ...

THanks for replying Wish777 ...
What i was trying to do is to repair a mistake i did ...
Wanting to just root my Bell SGH-I717M i did a whole system flash instead of just what i needed for the root and now instead of a phone that brings me Bell for the whole of the phone i have AT&T all across ... AT&T ready 2 go if i reset, AT&T Navigator for the gps .. etc etc .. the icon for the radio is not the same when i get on 4G or LTE etc ..
Overall, now it is not laggy and it is rooted but i miss the rest of it to be back as a Bell Stock but rooted.
If someone pull the Bell stock like we have in Canada for the Galaxy note SGH-I717 and let me put my hand on that i would be back to a phone like i bought from Bell but rooted then.
Thanks again to whoever will help me with that

I did thank you wish777 for your search as i know, trust me, that it is not easy to find the whole nine yards as Bell ... People will still need the untouched (if possible) Bell everything (probably people like Mashi, Da_G etc... would love it too) to fix problems or figure other stuff around for Bell users like me.
For now i got files on my pc .. ok it is Bell all the way but with root and CMW4 for me it is ok for now as i want it rooted and with Bell (counter trigger and stuff is not really relevant for me after the mistake i did = too late until they find a way to reverse it) ...

Also, blue, is there any way you can back up your phone, revert to pure stock, and then upload that? I am fine with CWM, but I know a lot of people would want pure stock and the devs are actually looking for someone to do that. If you can that would be amazing, regardless thanks a lot for all of your help, and the OP as well along with Wish.

I know what you're thinking "We already have root, why do we want and/or need this?". Well, if you followed the root thread, you would have seen that the package posted was built off of two images. There was the early firmware posting that it was first made from, then a system pull in a rar archive that was used to put the root package on the latest firmware. In the processes, there were issues with permissions and other items missing. The people involved did a great job with what they had, but I don't like hacked up solutions to problems.
So, to fix that, I had a stock system.img for the release firmware. This allowed me to build a fully stock root package with no missing files or incorrect permissions. While it took some time to get this tested and verified working without having the device, I was able to get it. Thanks goes to Adrynalyne, Mibix, and AstainHellBring (and anyone else) from IRC for testing several packages (Freenode, #galaxy-note-2). This is only the start of things to come, and I plan on slowly working on a ROM based on this then. I also made a deodexed version of the same package. Download and flash that if you wish, but it was more to verify that nothing broke in the deodexing process and to get a working base for a custom ROM.

INSTRUCTIONS
Download one of the above packages for flashing.
Extract the file (7zip works to extract).
Open Odin (download that elsewhere), and put the extracted tar.md5 in the PDA spot
(Re)Boot your phone into download mode and plug it in to your computer
With it recognized in Odin, press start
Once the phone boots up, all should be well. If you notice issues, boot into recovery and wipe data and this should fix the problems.
If you still have issues after wiping the /data and performing a factory reset, please post here.
NOTE: I am not responsible for any ill effects caused to you, your loved ones, you phone, or anything else as a result of flashing this. Do so at your own risk as I won't be held responsible.
Saving this one too, just in case.
I'm nuts about imnuts! Its great to have you here! Can't wait for one of your ROMs.
So just for clarification, this is a newer version of system than what the other root package was?
I will probably flash the deoxed version anyone, but just checking.

Same "version" as the last one created by Mr Robinson, just that it was built off of a system.img of the shipping firmware that preserved all permissions on the files. Functionally, this should be basically the same as what was done earlier, just put together in a less hacked up manner.
What would be the advantage of deodexed version?

Thank you. I ran your droid charge roms. Do u plan on get a note2?
Oh I wasn't sure if it litened it up or sped it up in any way. Would u see any reason to flash this over or in place of the first one I have now? All seems to be working fine.
What happens to all the mods that we have used on our phone, e.g. replacing files. I have changed my status bar and changed it so I can use MW with all apps.
Is this like the other one where are apps are not deleted?
Could yuo explain the advantages of the deoxed version vs. this one?
I will d/l both to keep on hand and thank you imnuts for putting this together. Does this address the lag with the screen turning on. I did of course wipe cache, etc, etc. when I rooted the first time. Remember kids, always wipe when you're done

Its a true latest rooted system image. You will have to redo all your mods. If your happy with what you have now, I wouldn't worry about it.

It is significantly easier to theme and modify deodexed versions compared to what ships.

If/when I get enough money, yes. For the moment, I have a few people I know that are testing things for me.

Oh I wasn't sure if it litened it up or sped it up in any way. Would u see any reason to flash this over or in place of the first one I have now? All seems to be working fine.

If you already have root and/or have done other changes to /system, then there isn't a need to flash this. It is meant more for people that haven't yet rooted. If you have only done root, this shouldn't change anything for you. If you have rooted and made other changes (deleting apps/etc.), then it will undo those changes, and possibly force you to factory reset. Nothing has been deleted from either package, just root and busybox being added.
Deodexed v. stock is mainly for ease of modification. After the first boot, there is no speed difference in the two, though you may save a little bit of storage on the stock version. Functionally, they are identical, just that if one was looking to theme or make other changes, it is easier to do on the Deodexed version. I plan on starting a ROM then, maybe with the help of a few people, and this will start with the deodexed version and will get its own thread if it comes.
Just to answer any future questions, if you're already rooted, you don't need this. It was created as a better starting point for anyone that has not yet rooted their phone.
Thanks for clearing that up imnuts. So seriously though, no performance differences between the two? I find that weird if the permissions are all messed up in the original. I'm planning to root my sister's phone tonight, and it wouldn't be hard for me to do mine again tonight either if there is some reason for it, from the sounds of it, there isn't
Looking forward to your future stuff, +1 anyways.
I may have to try both and see which is is best for future efforts.

Just curious how much money do you already have for the Note 2? I don't know much about you, but I already donated to Adam & Beans, I don't see why we can't help you get the phone as well. I'm willing to donate if we can get a thread together. It only helps the community..

I don't know if there are permissions issues with what was out, but given how it was made, it could be possible that one or two of the items with special permissions was missed, and without hitting a specific usage scenario, you'd never know. I think that given what MrRobinson was working with, he did a great job :good: I haven't actually compared what I have with what was previously out other than to verify that all files were present, I wasn't looking at permissions.
As for what's best for future efforts, it's going to be easier to theme and mod the deodexed version.
I do plan on building a ROM then starting next week, but progress will be slow (this alone took a week to get everything sorted properly).

there is no issues with mrRobinson's root image...that article is misleading. The very first image had issues but was quickly revised and fully functional!

Well, you can still >disable< these apps in application menu. But I'm still going to try find a fresh rom. Anyway, I contacted Alcatel, they will reply in couple of days. You can PM me about this
How to root Alcatel STAR, IDOL etc.
Full tutorial you can find on this blog http://alcatelstar.blogspot.com/2013/07/tutorial-how-to-root-alcatel-star-6010x.html

I'm sorry for the late reply.
Yes you can flash the phone with an unbranded rom, you can even flash it with the monosim rom, if you don't want the dual sim function.
Yes I know a lot of people who did it (they liked the phone features bu they don't need the DS functionality.)

Well, ONE TOUCH Upgrade S 2.8.0 says that my soft is up to date so it didn't flash anything. What way of flashing did you mean? Nandroid backup or flashing with a tool. And do you know a place where to find any ROMs?
Thank you for reply
any thread on this phone?
Anyone has a rom for this phone? I can't use upgrade S coz it says I have latest ROM available... Is there any workaround for this ?
Hi, anyone can give me the folder "/system/app" of OTS it's urgent ...
Thanks beforehand.
I'm uploading...
Why do you need it ?
system/apps from One Touch Star:
http://www.sendspace.pl/file/1806088e22aecd902052976
I deleted some app by inadvertently and I haven't notifications...
Thank you for it but for the moment the server is full. :cyclops:
PS: Can you give me your "/system/build.prop", mine is so changed.. ?
Mine is also heavily changed... I can share it anyway but like tommorow (you should remind me via PM).
One guy should have sent me the clean prop but still got no message from him ...
Can anyone confirm for me they have been able to successfully install a custom recovery (like clockworkmod) or a custom ROM onto this phone?
I am looking to get a phone for 6 months of international travel coming up and this one or the One Touch Mini seems perfect. (I like this one better though cause it has an AMOLED screen = better battery life )

Ok well I installed CWM and rooted my phone. I went ahead and got this one. Let's see what's cooking...now if only I can get that boot.img...
I am very happy to report I have created a flashable rom(via CWM or TWRP) which is essentially the same as the default rom on the star, but it has some of the junk apps alcatel pre-loads on the phone like game-loft removed and SuperSU installed.
I created it by getting the firmware.info file for our device, creating a custom update-script (getting the correct partition mounts from the firmware.info) using some pointers from DorianX's AOTI Lite Rom update-script, taking the system directory and boot.img from a nandroid backup after a factory reset, and getting the custpack directory by using a root file explorer to copy it to my sd and subsequently my computer editing the custpack, and finally packaging it together via dsixda's kitchen.
I am still working on slimming it down a little more as there are apps in /system/ that can be removed as well, but I just wanted to see if creating a custom ROM was doable. And it seems it was after 3 days of experimenting
Also got rid of that default hideous white theme by changing a setting in the build.prop.
I can upload it if anyone would like me to.
This rom is deodexed, busybox and rooted (although root may need to be updated).
I made this with a kit kat kitchen I found. I did not intend this to be a "ROM" But a base that Dev's can make roms from.

FEEL FREE TO USE.
EDIT I JUST TESTED THIS WITH THE TWRP and it faild because of the script. I do not know how to fix but if someone else wants to try go for it

BTW forgot to mention. This has the Padfone s bootanimation
I just wanted to say thank you for working on this device. I haven't decided if i will keep mine as the fried LTE radio thing has me worried, but I love the device and think more developers could have taken it to another level.
