The Nexus 7 has just gotten a Pure AOSP Paranoid Android 4.4 Kit-Kat ROM is there any way to port this over?

There is also a fully functional port for the nexus 4 in case you missed it, works perfect, like if it was oficiall.

Patience. Those are nexi devices so off course its gonna get it first. Itll come soon enough for us!

To be honest, i'll rather stay on cyanogenmod or pacman even if its jellybean than kitkat stock without the extra stuff.
I still have a hard time understanding why Nexus 4 got it before G2 because Nexus 5 is basicly same hardware as G2, but it doesnt bother me so much.

Because its a nexus, simple as that. And because there are many more devs on that forum than here.

Because everyone in the Paranoid Android team owns a Nexus 4 and all has bought the Nexus 5. Pretty sure lots of them own the Nexus tablets also.

Honestly, I tried Kit Kat on my Galaxy Nexus and I don ´t know what to think about. Yeah it is faster, but LG G2 is fast anyway. Can ´t find anything which would be esential.
I hope that at least battery will improve. Otherwise it´s not big deal.

I have been running cyanogenmod since it came to g2 and i consider it stable, especially after todays snapshot release.
For me it doesnt matter if its a nexus or not i flash a custom rom anyways, and in this case the g2 hardware is better than n5 with the same software i see no reason to get n5 besides the price if you live in a country where playstore devices are available.

So you're saying its bug free? Looking at the thread it looks like a bunch of force closing etc. Etc.

It is good to have LG's UI.

Hi, I think is good that we have LG's UI.
Because I have a Galaxy Nexus with a CM10 and there is nothing else. All the ROMs look exactly the same. With LG we will get mix of LG and CM or Aosp and that will look better.
What you guys think?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I agree. I'm not to fond of all the Roms and how they are all the same. They all look the same and to me that's boring. I really like the ui.

Eventually, maybe even sense.

I would tend to agree with you. Having different UIs are a nice change of pace while other roms that mimic AOSP are visually boring after a while. However, I think the UI is taking up too much resources that causes the significant battery drain that many reviewers seem to complain about. Personally, once CM10 comes to the Optimus G, I will be using that instead.
With external SD u can have mutiple roms with different flavours
Biggest advantage that I feel which is pushing me for upgrade to this one , obiviously apart from monstorous horsepower underneath is the external SD card. I kinda liked having two roms simultaneously installed in my galaxy S2, always kept one TW based and other CM based.
With One X ,Lost this flexiblity. I hope we get good Devs derived to buy this powerhouse and can provide alot on rom options , both with LG UI and CM/AOKP. This is one of the reason I'm looking for this one.
Cheers to all who are already enjoying this !
noob question here, almost too embarrassed to ask, but how do you add/remove screens? Haven't figured it out yet :\
Yeah.. that's definitely not gonna happen.

It just all depends on what u want. For me I'm a aosp user and hate every other overlay so for me it doesn't bother me if ROMs look the same. If it bothers someone then learn to theme or buy a device that u like the manufacturers skin on but no skin will ever perform as well as aosp.

That's not always true. While aosp uses less resources, since it is geared to work on everything, it may not be as optimized as stock is. Apparently, the nexus 4 performs worse than the optimus g, which could mean that lg did a good job of optimizing it for the device in a way that aosp did not.

Good argument but these manufacturers just take aosp and add **** on top. So your still getting the same aosp as a google phone with **** added on that always makes it slower and there's no way in hell an optimus outperforms the new nexus. Whoever said that (I don't care if it was a 100) is crazy.

I believe it only outperformed it because the benchmarks weren't optimized for 4.2 yet. Who knows what kinda of framework changes Google has done. Also keep in mind that all the Nexus 4 right now have pre-release software. All of them are bound to have bugs.

4.2

Any idea if we are going to get 4.2 ROMs?

yes considering 4.2 isn't too much of an upgrade from 4.1. However i think more research should be done on whats causing this encryption unsuccessful bug that's bricking a lot of phones.
That would be cool to see it come to the vib

This far the EU bug is only an "ICS thing".
???
Through CyanogenMod and other Dev we will get 4.2 and 5 as well, possibly 6, but not sure about 7 (it depends on if we get to Android 7 before the world ends due to countries going to war over lack of natural resources and nuclear war ensues). I'll let you know in about 5 years time if I'm not glowing green due to radiation.
The Nexus S have been confirmed by a Google Dev it won't get official 4.2 though.

I think with Vibrant we're going to see all Android versions until:
- Developers loose interest
- Hardware requirements make the new versions not feasible.
The level of stability and battery we have with JB is simply amazing for how old the phone is. You can buy a brand new battery and extend life cycle easily for another year with this phone.
That is true I'm amazed the vibrant made it this far lol
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
Maybe because the nexus s has the same hardware for the most part and it is getting these updates officially and it gets ported over. That's why I've always thought it made it this far. Just my thought lol.

of course we can get 4.2
DerTeufel and pawitp both make 4.2 for sgs i9000 they are pretty stable some issue are there but it is awesome
if someonw try derteufel rom here is the link
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2003676
I Agree, @der and pawitp are great developers bringing us all the releases. AOKP is good too.
Unfortunately, we dont have a developer exclusively for Vibrant. Nevertheless, we could wait for a few more days to see 4.2 for Vibrant.
Cheers.

This phone will have long term support. More than most at least. I really see this phone standing the test of time

What are the requirements to port it to our phone? And if we meet those whom would we ask to get it ported? I would do it but my knowledge only goes as far as unlocking, rooting, and flashing roms. Sorry if this has been answered already.

To have an 'official' rom, I would assume someone in their team would need to own a DNA.
But once cm 10.1 gets a little bit farther in development people will start building/porting all sorts of stick based roms, including pa

What's an IRL?
Do you mean RIL?
Because that's the Radio Interface Layer. And if that's what you are referring to then it's been pretty much cracked. You should probably take a look into the Original Development forum.

The bottom line - as long as there is no daily driver rom for CM10.1 there wont be any rom that based on it, AKA PA, Liquidsmooth etc

I'm actually looking forward to efforts to build straight AOSP for the DNA, since Paranoid Android on Nexus devices actually moved from a CM base to a straight AOSP base. Also, one of my favorite Galaxy Nexus ROMs, BAMF Paradigm, is based on straight AOSP (though I prefer the extensive feature set of AOKP on my Nexus 7 tablet).

I didn't know they were aosp based now. I would love pa on this phone. I always end up coming back to it on my n7. For some reason I can't use aokp based ROMs because the keyboard always crashes but aokp would be badass on our phone too.
Perhaps someone could port some of the aosp/cm based ROMs from the one over to the DNA.

Android L made you thinking about switching to Nexus 5?

After watching thousands of videos about android L I'm really thinking about changing my G2 for Nexus 5. Maybe because I had nexus 4 and maybe because of so many developers, I dont know. Anyone else ?
I don't care about android L and for me G2 is still better choice
No thanks. We'll have Android L soon anyway either through the upcoming port OCEANDEV and Co is working on or through CM

I did switch, returning my N5 tomorrow, its not worth the battery sacrifice. That and L is way, way to buggy. While i was using the N5 i went back to 4.4.4, L is that unusable as it is now.

We are gonna get L soon anyway, why sacrifice amazing 4k camera and massive battery just to get android a month or two earlier than the rest of people on xda, and those people who actually wait for carrier updates. They would probably get L 6 months later, if they ever do get it. (Not counting HTC)

Best case i got was 4hours screen on time on about 17 hours total time. Which is a good 50% less than the g2 on a bad day.

We'll have Android L sooner or later too, so.. just patience and its fine

Mine previous phone was also the N4 but the reason i quitted was that there were too many roms like on the N5 which all are just looking AOSP so no thanks. You can go to the N5 if you really want much development but the g2 also got already much development. Else when we figured out the black vertical lines issue and when i will receive my G2 then i will try to make a Port guide how to port the roms just like Porting nexus 4 roms to optimus g:laugh:
