I seem to always get in trouble for making a thread, or it goes unnoticed. just a question on how much work would it be to port over a Verizon gnex rom to sprint gnex? I'm not dev at all but I imagine it would only be a radio and some other small things. Again I could be missing the big picture, I just got my sprint gnex yesterday and I can't wait for highly custom roms! If its not to advanced I'd love to take a crack at it if anyone would be willing to teach me how
Mods move it to wherever you want....

Too me it just seems that something needs to be done with the radio as of now flashing a verizon rom works fine except for the radio which is data and whatnot. As soon as they get aosp running with mms fixed and find the radio so if the radio gets borked then I am sure those developers of the verizon roms could hopefully just add compatibility with sprint.
That is all I know as of now

why would you want that? the sprint rom is better
What makes it better though? Aren't they literally the exact same phone just different networks? I'm glad its better if it is I almost bought the Verizon one hahah

One is not better then the other
In fact like i said above Verizon roms almost fully work on ours except the radio, once they get that fixed i am sure we can share roms with verizon people but who knows? Our device is still brand new and will be a little bit til we have as many roms as verizons forum
BTW don't flash verizons roms until there is a radio fix some poor people have broken radios and are waiting as people are looking to fix it.
just in case you were thinking about flashing one
There is nothing superior about Sprint roms that isn't remedied by AOSP.
Now if you are talking about zip roms, tsk, tsk.
Those are a crime against humanity...er, the Nexus The device is open enough to not warrant such a thing.

They use differen radio frequencies, which the CPUs are programmed for. They are incompatible. That's what causes the data problems. That's just about the only difference in terms of hardware.

Also is do we have a way to restore the radio if ours get borked?

I've seen successful LTE radio pull, but not CDMA yet.
No radio included on our rom, so when you get your device, look me up

so here is a question:
Once we have the cdma radio pulled and mms working would there be anyway that verizon roms with a little modification to the radio and whatnot to get them working easily. or do they have to redo the whole rom special?

The only real difference from Sprint to Verizon are the ril props outside of the mms issue.
So, no, not hard, but just as easy for the devs to simple compile for Sprint.

^^ what he said
Just checked the development forums and they are basically empty.
Is it just that the phone is new? Or has there been no way to root it yet? I'm thinking of getting this phone but I'd like to know if I'll have the option of rooting/loading a custom ROM.
One last question - is this phone any different then the nexus? it seems to have the same hardware other then a better camera and have LTE.
Thanks
Nexus 4 is optimus G with no amplifiers/filters for LTE, less storage, different camera, wireless charger, RGB led.
No roms cause thats the international version section, its still kinda rare and the boot still locked.

I'm in Canada so I'm not entirely sure, but if Sprint is like any other carrier they will push an update to 4.2 loooooonnnnnggggg after the devs here have cooked about a dozen customs Rom's for it. They are working on AOSP now. Shouldn't be too long.

Oh i know i can get it sooner here, but this isnt my phone and for some stupid reason my friend doesn't want me to root his phone, so just wondering how long he's gonna have to wait to get any of the new stuff 4.2 has

From the looks of it, there are a few devs that have this device (judging from the "root-testing" discussion). I'm sure that it won't be too long before we see some work. Still a relatively new device here in the US.
I'm getting my hands on it tonight, so I'll give her a looksie. If I can do something with what I find, then I will. It's my first LG (primary body of work on Moto devices), so it might be slow...

It wouldn't work because the radios are completely different on this Verizon ONE vs the GSM/LTE version. I am, however, super confident in some of the devs that have surfaced here already will be getting us CM10.1.2 or CM10.2 soon.

They were able to port it over with Sprint. It should be doable with Verizon as well.

Unfortunately it sounds like HTC has closed down the unlock, though, and he doesn't have his device yet.
Edit: I realize he can still work on it, but I'm sure it would be 1000x easier with the device in hand.

Yes u can get 4.2 or 4.3 roms.. but all of them would be aosp based as we don't have a touchwiz based rom above 4.1.2

Similar post on tmo news showing the big 4 ota schedule. It had tmo deploying on the Monday after Thanksgiving.
I am definitely not going to upgrade ota. The GS III guys who ota'd to the 4.3 TW got seriously screwed on the new bootloader. Can't revert to any older roms and if you try, it'll brick the phone.
No thanks.
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
Hey I gotta be honest I have the s3 and I switched to simple so I had to revert back to stock to unlock the SIM. Now I have been out of the loop for a while so I knew nothing about the boot loader being locked so I did the oat update to 4.3 and I gotta say the latest version of tw is really good. This is coming from a guy who hates stock firmware. I haven't really seen the need to root the phone. Maybe I am just getting old and lazy idk but I also heard that chainfire found a way around the locked bootloader so I wouldnt worry about it much. Even if he didnt it is only a matter of time before someone does.

I put docholiday77's rom on my wife's s3. It's nice to be sure. No ota's though. While the community will likely get around the bootloader bit, I'd just rather not have to worry about it.
TWRP or CWM are fine. I can wait for the lads here to tear the TW roms apart and put them back together. We have awesome people here doing bleeding edge stuff, why not appreciate the work they work so hard to provide? OTA's can suck it.

I'm wondering if anyone knew if the new version of Touchwiz will be an S5 exclusive or if it is something that will be included in the new Kitkat stock rom?
Kind of early I know, but still have to ask.
It's nothing groundbreaking but it is a bit fresher. If not I'm sure someone will find a way to extract it to our S4's...
Where did you find the new version? Well, I mean where did see it?

The next version won't have it but there is a chance some features will be brought to us later. I think i read that the s3 got some s4 features via updates last year.
Also especially if it coincides with their business initiatives like the gear watches
But dont count on it, you bought the phone u have and its not bad Wait till the s6 or s7
