LG-LS970 Factory(ish) Images - Sprint LG Optimus G

First, thanks to criptix for joining me tonight, being prepared and following instructions. He was a great help and hopefully these images can help make some noise around here. I will add the system image as soon as it's finished uploading. The system image is stock, fresh factory reset, with root.
Boot.img
Recovery.img
System Image ZV8
There will be a CWM flashable .zip available soon also, so you can fix yer junk if need be. Nothing fancy, but you can feel free to kang, theme or whatever you can do.
Check out my GitHub for some helpful tools and scripts should you choose to try your hand at making kernels.
Cheers and out!

Do you possibly have a ZV8 image unrooted and completely stock? I would like to include in my tool the option to un root. Thanks for your hard work.

great, we needed and still need some more noise
will try it out after finals. good work

No. But it's on my todo list and maybe we can write a script to unroot in the meantime. If I write it in bash can you transliterate into shell?

Great resource, thanks!

this is moving right along! I have a nexus s and when I upgrade it seems it will be an easy transition to a rooted, possibly rommed device!

ZV9 just dropped in the rdf page. If jelly bean pops up I would expect to see more people buy the phone and more developers coming our way. WIN WIN!

Do you mean batch or actual bash. If you meant batch than I most likely could.

Just making sure it was not a typo. Depending on how complex your bash is, i might be able to help you out. Or i could write one in shell that erases system and replaces it with an unrooted stock image.

Could It Be....

I think my phone is getting froyo at this very minute as I type. I switched back to stock DL17 because I was having issues with the cooked roms. I just decided to push check for updates.... To my surprise it FINALLY started to really update. WILL UPDATE POST AS SOON AS I KNOW!!!! This is WWWAAAAYYYY overdue if it is.
FROYO!!!!
Just got that update from Verizon. Its official they finally gave us froyo. We are super behind in Android releases.

I saw this mentioned over at a, last night. So, here is my question: are all of your stats the same as the leak? (firmware, baseband, build, and kernel)? If not, I may revert, and root with soc, then do a system dump and deodex it. That way we'll have a true stock to work from.
Its EC09 instead of 07

hmmm lets see cause some people like myself would rather have fun flashing things (alpha or not) We know the risks we take with our phones. Also considering it's in a public place that is not locked for downloads he has it up for a reason. I'm just not providing the link as he did not post one and in respect to sb I won't post one unless he says it's ok to do so. But others who know how to look for things can find it and get it IF they chose to do so.

I think its the update script causing the problems if i had to guess i looked at it and i don't think it needs to mount the partition that you have in it. I have disected alot of files and don't remember seeing this partition being mounted like this to install apps. Just a guess though I am not a professional developer so I could be wrong.
Eh I tried. Maybe it just not gonna work... Maybe some else can port it.

OK. Progress report. Found the conflicting libs causing no-boot. Removed them for now, but that will cause a fc most likely. Its probably due to hardware. I'm going to merge the lib files later but just want to test the zip without them.

Maybe it'll work with the new leaked version of 4.12?
Would it be possible in any way to port the GS3 camera app to the 4.12 leak and use the zip on that?
I would try myself, but i have no knowledge on deving at all.

Removable apps..

I've looked high and low to no avail. Usually there's a list compiled by one of the more brainy folks of apps that we can remove without losing functionality. Does one exist? Now that I'm rooted and unlocked I'd like to know what I can trash. Debloat that is... thanks in advance.
I've posted in the proper section, so please no trolls or flamers. :banghead:

I've never seen a list but I believe the imperium ROM has a zip of all tha apks that were removed. It might be first post but im pretty sure its somewhere in the thread. ROM toolbox has worked good for me removing Google books and Google magazines as well as some sprint apps.
It is safe to remove:
Backup
Video Editor
Voice command
Voice recorder
LG tags
Notebook
Tasks
SmartShare
That is what I have removed with no issues.
Thanks guys. I never looked in the Rom thread cause I was never interested in flashing stock roms lol I mainly wanna get rid of the apps that wake up and run in the background. Google+ talk Sprint stuff etc...

Save yourself some time and wait for the JB update to Imperium. To give you and idea, I removed over 400 things from the ICS version. I would make a debloat script for it but with that many items and apk swaps it's faster to simply flash it and install what you want. In short, barebones builds are my thing and kind of what I'm known for.

so if were to take him 3hrs to go through and delete what is not necessary for his liking, does that mean imperium could be released sooner than that? then he would save some time. j/k, im just bad with patience. i really liked your ics rom and i know im not the only one. thanks for all your efforts
