Support for the g pro is continuously getting better... Now that CM 10.1 is fully working, we will have all the other AOSP based Roms slowly coming in.... I see Slimbean and PAC already..others must be on the way...never a better time to own the G pro..dive in

Yes,for E980. What about E988?

Yes it is but still I'd rather keep Optimus G Pro.

Why would anyone answer this without any source...
The REAL answer is not Yes or No, it's juste "unkown" until LG release a statement saying anything...

When LG release a firmware, they release a firmware, not just an android update.
Try installing CM10.1 after flashing LG 4.1.2 firmware and you ll see a big difference on battery consumption.
I get 6h of web browsing instead of 4h with the same CM10.1 on the same phone... only thing that changed is the firmware that have been flashed before.
Personnaly I dont think LG will release a 4.2, but I would take it as a firmware update anytime if it gives me another 1.5x battery
I let myself be surprised by LG.
Speculate that, yes or no, brings nothing
In any case, I am very satisfied with the G

New to lg, but on samsung, CM is way better than TW and that's a fact.Unfortunatelly lg doesn't have all the support samsung has.It will take some time, but,in the end, CM will be better than lg fw.
LG patches pure vanilla with Gesture UI and adds specific apps(like q-slide)..how do you call that?
All manufacturers do it(samsung with TW, HTC with sense and motorola with motoblur).

My point is : install lg latest firmware before installing CM and you ll see a big difference IN CM
CM and the others are good options for those who don't like LG UI. But I have never been a fan of CM on any of my phones cause it's never perfect!

maybe now,lg roms are better,because cm is still young for our phones.but,with a proper dev team,cm will wipe off lg roms.
imagine,pure vanilla running on g.but there is a long way.unfortunately,lg does not have 5he same support community like samsung

I think LG will release android 5 instead of 4.2, because our G have strong hardware. Now we just pray for it!
lol, KLP will be released later this year.until then, we will have 4.2
My source told me 4.2.2 will be available at the end of may,begining of june.But it's possible to have it earlier.

You do realize it's lg stuff,so it will only on lg framework,not cm/aosp/aokp/miui.
Same is happening with every other manufacturer.what's the point in releasing updates?tu use them with other software?

But how do we install it on stock? Flash it or ...?
Is this a working ROM for E975 with the Value Pack included or is it just the .apk`s from LG Optimus G Pro extracted?
How to flash or install this value pack?
Can we flash this via TWRP or do we have to re-kdz ?
Edit: okay we can't twrp this..
Does it work on E975?
Ok,where in the world did you guys read anything related to G getting this value pack?it's for g pro only.so stop asking when it will work on g.right now it can't even be ported,since g pro has 4.2.2.
We'll have something from those features,but not the full package,but only after the g gets the 4.2 update

Same here. The phone runs super smooth the way it is. Pick up a spare battery and you're good to go in case of emergency or extreme high usage.

Optimus G Pro Value Pack camera
Hi guys!
Since I'm interested by the LG OG Pro Value Pack features (especially VR Panorama and Dual Camera), I searched for some solutions to install the Value Pack camera on my stock rooted OG runing Android 4.1.2.
I recently discovered main.develoid.com and found in its files, the OG Pro system dump.
I extracted the CameraApp3b APK from the downloaded ZIP and pushed it to /system/app. After a reboot, the LG camera was a little bit different: I have the Panorama and VR Panorama options but unfortunately, when I try to launch them, it crashes.
I think it crashes because of some missing LG libs. The system dump I have could be helpful for anyone having a better experience than mine on Android customization.
Could you please make some tries and give some advice and help ?
Sorry for no posting direct links, I'm new here ! But if I can help you in some other way, say me !

I wonder to have MIUI on E975!
Indeed I wonder to have MIUI on LG G E975. It's infact very strange that still doesn't exist, and that nobody tried to port it.
Let's immagine that the very old LG P500 Optimus One, 640x320 pix, 512 ram and 729mhz cpu, with latest stock Android of just 2.3.5, have a huge choice of roms.
MIUI 2.3.7
MIUI V4 on ICS and on JB, ICS veru stable.
CM 10.1 with Android 4.2.2
CM 7 and 9 very very fast and stable
I really not figue out why this amazing G is still left so alone ...

I'm guessing you haven't even bothered to try to scan the thread titles in the various development forums here. There are more ROMs available for the LGOG variants than you can shake a stick at:
CM 10.1
Carbon
RootBox
Xylon
LiquidSmooth
AOKP
Avatar
ThinkingBridge
variations on stock
And probably a bunch more that I haven't listed as I tend to ignore the E975-based ones as I have an E971.
IOW, we have more ROMs available for the LGOG than the P-whatever you're going on about.
phoenix_rizzen, you are right, but I do have bothered to scan all the threads ...
I, for sure, express in a wrong way... when I wrote; "still left so alone". I wound say: "still left so alone from Xiaomi developers and/or MIUI lovers developers (to try to port it) ...
Sorry for that. I'll pay more attenction.
I am very MIUI oriented, so I think is a mess not to have even just one porting of it.
I recognize LG G have many roms, and I am subsribed to some of their threads in order to follow the future development.
About the P500, it have many MIUI unofficial portings. 5 or 6!|
I really not figue out why this amazing G is still left without official MIUI, but even with any MIUI unofficial portings...
That's it.
Try Avatar Rom, it's the closest you can get to MIUI for this device.pretty nifty too.
In korean naver cafe, there is a miui rom!

Il'' try Avatar for sure. I'm folloing the thread also, but ...
But I'm still chosing my new phone evaluating the modding possibilities.
I still do not own this wonderful G!! I'd prefer better phones MIUI compatibile just because I am accustomed to it. For that I am uncertain if doing an ecception or not.

[Q] Chances of LG updating the G Pro at all?

What do you guys think, will LG even update this phone anymore? to any version, or even another OTA value pack that will bring the cool updated features of the LG G2. The reason I'm asking is because I'm fine with stock right now, but I would love to have the speed boost of a newer version of android, that's the only thing keeping me from rooting and "Roming"? again if they still plan on updating this awesome phone than I have no reason to root and rom. What do you guys think?

If I'm honest, I'd say we MIGHT, slim chance MIGHT, see an update to 4.2. Or maybe just a Value Pack update to bring over some features of the G2.
The advertising for our device was botched, and LG even admitted to it. So, the popularity of this device, isn't as high as it should. I wouldn't expect another update, but then again, LG has surprised me before.

I don't see Lg updating the gpro specially with the Lg g X soon to be out for sell, which is exactly the same phone as the gpro spec wise. I hope Lg proves me wrong but for now Im planning on rooting my gpro rather soon. It's a shame the phone was only an at&t exclusive here in the states or else it would have been much more popular and had more support from at&t.
Is there good support for CM out there? Because of the missing sources I assume, because LG isn't releasing them, I guess.

And can I flash them if they are not for my device anyway? Because the LG Optimus G Pro isn't supported yet is it?

There is a leaked version on 4.2.2 China version floating around the forums, but it is way too buggy to try on other variants. We may see an official 4.2.2 update in the near future, but due to US carriers like AT&T who do like like pushing updates to phones that are not their flagship device, we may nit see that update. But, we can only hope and wait.

You can get certain features that are available in custom ROMs such as Nav bars, Advanced power menus, tweaks to the status bar, tweaks to lockscreen, you name it. Be careful though some of these won't be compatible so I suggest using the gravity box module. It has everything you may need
