When jellybean leaks or is officially released do you think there will be more devs working on custom roms?? Im ordering mine on tuesday no matter what tho. cant wait
Probably not. Already a number of devs working on things.
I would imagine that you will see a few new devs and roms when/if the first person figures out a reasonable way of converting N4 / ASOP roms over though.

The Base rom will probably be updated to 4.1 or 4.2 depending on what's released.
We probably won't see more devs immediately but, keep in mind Christmas is coming up so a lot of people will be getting new devices and have no free time till Christmas..
Then after Christmas people will have less to do, more time, and a new device to play with.

Great point. Plus, we really only need a few devs. Give me one that can compile CM10.1, one that handles AOKP and maybe a few that make some hybrids. Hell, if development doesn't pick up once JB source for this device is available, I will buy a phone for a member on my team that can build from source

Any idiot with Linux could learn easily how to compile assuming the sources are all there, but there are things we have to make from scratch or modify from the nexus. We are working on it.

One of the reasons they changed the moderator system was to keep Questions out of General and the Development fora. There's a whole Q/A forum for this device. Please try to remember that.
Moved to Q&A please post in proper sections.

This device is so underrated and is now becoming a real beast in the dev support community. We have AOKP, CM 10.2, Clean, Mallidus, Vanir AOSP, roms with more development showing up everyday. It may not be an offical "nexus" device, but with LOKI and root, it's beginning to feel that way. I came from the GNex and I remember the support that device got. I made the right choice!!
Yessir!!!! Let the good times roll
I am going to go and thanks all the Dev for coming here. =)
-LG G2
finally the whining about dev support will cease.
That happens evrytime a new phone is launched, its a powerhouse of a phone and devs were bound to love it

We now have Paranoid Android too It may not be a nexus, but since there's no chance of a nexus 5 on Verizon, I don't think I will miss it that much. The builds will soon get stable and we will be able to enjoy this device whether on a stock rom or an aosp one.

I'm kind of surprised that people haven't figured out, that most custom roms are either based on CM or based on stock. We got CM and then people were able to port other roms.

What!? I think you are confused or maybe I misunderstand you. Vanir is AOSP and while AOKP may share many hardware repos I'm not sure I'd consider is CM based especially since the whole caf debacle. And by stock you mean based off LG ROM?
Many of the devs worked tirelessly together to bring these to fruition at the same time. I dont think any one dev or team can take credit.

It is rather odd. Coming from previous devices on Verizon, the tmo variants were always one of the first to get aosp builds going. It feels good to be on the leading end this time around but I know how you feel. I'm sure development for it will pick up soon.
Being from Europe and all I can't quite see why there are three (?) American models? What's the difference between the Verizon, att and tmobile versions?

There are actually 4 American models. Sprint currently doesn't have their section yet. It's just the sad way things are done over here. Carriers like to lock in their customers and each tends to offer a slightly different variant. Whether that be the slight difference in physical look or the type of radios included for a GSM or CDMA carrier, American carriers like to limit customer options.
In the future, will it be possible to extract Nexus5 rom/updates and apply them directly to G2 ?
Just asking, because G2 and Nexus are sharing a lot of same hardware.
It'll probably be easier to port Nexus5 rom, instead of having a lot of work on a common 10.2CM ?

Its fairly easy to port ROMS from Nexus 5. However reading log cats is the main thing here. Thankfully most people can't read log cats so it stops the noobs flood the place with terrible ports. To answer your question yes it can.

there is a guy with a video on youtube that says he has files to download to the g2 to make it a virtual nexus 5. he demos it and says the files are in the description but I did not see them there. He says no root is required and it does look like a nexus 5, but I don't know if it is kitkat or not. it also looked like he was getting some FCs too.

Yea the Optimus G Pro already received 4.4 based off the N4. I'm suprised we haven't got 4.4 based off the N5 yet. Perhaps the devs are still getting comfortable with the new hardware.
Real good to know about the N5/G2 ease of porting. I'm particularly curious about the kernels and how similar they are to one another. Moving forward with newer versions of Android, the kernels are the important thing.
I'm hoping it'll be easier to port roms over. The only concern I have is whether or not they'd work with the VZW version. Not sure if you could use the RIL from the G2 or a new file from scratch would have to be made to be able to get working data.

Adding it takes time, adds risk to the stability of the phone and gives me no benefit. My phone is heavily locked down by my IT department and with a minimum 8 character alpha numeric password, the sweep or double tap to wake is not improving my life.

Okay, here's a dumb question... Right now we share the AOSP kernel source with the HTC One. Wouldn't flashing a custom AOSP kernel for the One work on the DNA?
yeah some nice s2w like the old cubed kernel so you can do just "back to home" to wake it, its so nice i dont see how ppl dont want it of course unless they have some crazy circumstance like crpalmer just described
but we have a lot of diff roms so something like this would be rather difficult to choose one version of android for this to be implemented on or many kernels, lotta work it seems.
Ask .torrented. He made a s2w kernel a few months ago. He may have a very busy schedule but if enough people ask he may do it.

I don't think one of those kernels would be difficult to port though. I'm just wondering what exactly makes the kernels different, because if you compare the CyanogenMod pages for the DNA and the One, the kernel source link is for the M7 on both of them. I was considering trying to port a kernel myself a while back, but I couldn't find enough information online about it... I think it may be one of those things where if you have enough knowledge of ROM building and git than you just intuitively know how to do it.

I couldn't resist, I just had to try it. I figured the worst that would happen is I'd have to reflash my ROM. So I flashed the HTC one sti kernel here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2507710 it flashed and booted just fine and everything works... None of the s2w dt2w features etc are working but it said it flashed successfully so I'm assuming it's running the kernel... I don't remember what it said in about phone before but it currently shows "3.4.10-CM-gbce7128 Robert @ minty #1."
Edit: yeah I'm pretty sure that's the stock kernel...
It was worth a try right?

Do not, really, do NOT flash a kernel for a different phone. The Linux kernel is setup to have the same core files across a huge number of devices but then have device specific files. We share the M7 kernel but we have different device specific files. These files control lots of things but the most important is determining what pieces of hardware are given specific voltages, etc.
If you want to try to build my kernel, you should be able to do so fairly easily. Porting the functionality will require some programming knowledge and some knowledge of git. If you think you can do it, let me know and I'll try to give you some first steps on building my kernel.
Porting a M7 kernel to our device might be hard. There is a high probability that they aren't necessarily keeping up-to-date on the changes to our device specific files. You'd have to figure out if they were and, if not, pull in the missing changes.

Hey guys,
First off. Mahdi rom is Amazing! I love all the features and it had just the right amount of features for my new G2! Thanks Doc for maintaining this for us!
Second, I am a kernel dev and am working on my own kernel for the G2. I have essentially made my base Savoca's Furnace Kernel (With his permission of course) and will be adding in features as I go. Currently I build for the Moto G but wanted to buy a higher end device and love this phone. I have the D800 (AT&T) so as it stands I only have a test kernel for the D800/JDI. You may be able to use Savoca's new panel tool that you flash after flashing the kernel to swap screen support. I would love for some others to test it out and let me know. I will be bringing a different perspective to kernel Dev'n than normal. I like to be hands on about the process and to instigate discussion so others can learn. Let me know if anyone is interested.I will be building for all variants that Furnace kernel supports.
Note to ALL: I will open an official thread when I am satisfied with testing. Thanks for your interest! Hope I can bring something new to the G2!
Right now I have added:
Custom Hotplug from Blechd0se (Moto G) Falcon Hotplug - Ultra simplified and efficient.
Sl(auo)b optimizations
frandom
ETC
Check source for more indepth info!
Just pm me if you are interested. Everything looks to be going pretty good so I should be opening a thread pretty soon. Remember this is still in Beta. Still I would love to hear from others out there. Thanks!

Great, Thanks for the info, I will most likely be removing it anyways. I have inherited Savoca's source and am laying mine down ontop. He did all the amazing groundwork that will allow me to support numerous devices much much sooner. Thanks and let me know how it continues to work for you!
@RenderBroken booted up just fine. Running smooth. I'll report back tomorrow as well. Thanks again for building for us. ?
Render, since I cleaned the kernel and left it stock I'm getting the SOD. If I let the screen go off and try to turn the screen back on it just lights up black. Tried and tried but just a black screen. Unfortunately I had to go back for now. Can't wait to try it once it gets cleaned up.

I looked at Savoca source and it appeared to have no FM support in audio driver, same as Mahdi now.
I'll copy my post from Mahdi thread, in case your interested in enabling FM:
I've concluded that sound/soc/msm/msm8974.c needs to be patched with the "#ifdef CONFIG_SND_FM_RADIO" code seen here: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_kernel_lge_msm8974/blob/cm-11.0/sound/soc/msm/msm8974.c
Unless you're up for that, I'll presume I'll try it myself.
Any tips for kernel building for a JDI LS980 ? I built a few Android kernels in 2013, but never even tried flashing them.
That said, I've been doing embedded linux professionally since 1997.
Thanks !
1 question. Why didn't you post the kernel in one of the development sections??

hi, thank you for supporting our beloved g2 we all appreciate it, i just have a request. you see , only the Qremote can control the IR on our device, lg didnt use the real android open source drivers for it . so we cant use apps like smartIR whereas samsung n htc are compatible. im just suggesting if you can try and implement open source IR drivers to the g2 ? so that we can use all these apps that utilize that api i know this is gonna be an insanely though part as you'd have to figure out which hw IR we are using and then implement a compatible driver for it. but im just suggesting that this is perhaps the only bad part of the g2 till now
Super Post!

Render, since I cleaned the kernel and left it stock I'm getting the SOD. If I let the screen go off and try to turn the screen back on it just lights up black. Tried and tried but just a black screen. Unfortunately I had to go back for now. Can't wait to try it once it gets cleaned up.

Then it sounds like you don't have LDG like you said but you have JDI.

Link to source ?
I looked at Savoca source and it appeared to have no FM support in audio driver, same as Mahdi now.
I'll copy my post from Mahdi thread, in case your interested in enabling FM:
I've concluded that sound/soc/msm/msm8974.c needs to be patched with the "#ifdef CONFIG_SND_FM_RADIO" code seen here: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_kernel_lge_msm8974/blob/cm-11.0/sound/soc/msm/msm8974.c
Unless you're up for that, I'll presume I'll try it myself.
Any tips for kernel building for a JDI LS980 ? I built a few Android kernels in 2013, but never even tried flashing them.
That said, I've been doing embedded linux professionally since 1997.
Thanks !

I will go ahead and push the latest changes and post link. Also I am fairly new to the G2 scene and just how fractured the source code is for it. I would love to take a look at this if its simple enough to add in. I am not against trying though. If you could, remind me when I open up the main thrad in the next few days. I am heading to the beach with my wife and son so will not be able to do much in the next 2 days but when I get back and I get some good word about the builds, I will open the thread and kick in to overdrive.

1 question. Why didn't you post the kernel in one of the development sections??

Just wanted some testers for now. I dont want to open a thread to a million questions about each device yet when I don't have a kernel ready for them. I will be creating a thread very soon.

I like challenges, I will take a look as soon as I can. Most likely it will be after I get everything completely setup. If you could remind me later when I open up the official thread. Thanks!
Planning d801?

im experienced at coding, c,java,html and php. i ahve compiled kernels in the past but that was like 4 years ago.ill try my best to help you. although ill need your help too.
I've looked under terminal and it states I have a lgd. Flashed savacos older kernels that were lgd and they all worked fine. I get no black lines just when I shut the screen off it comes on but full black.

Weird, I am pretty certain I build to LGD variant. Sorry brother. Try using Savoca's panel changer that you flash after the kernel. I even used Savoca's build script so not sure what the problem is but I am pretty sure that it's not a SoD problem you are having but a panel issue.
