4.4 ROMs? - Sprint LG Optimus G

With all the speculation of Android 4.4 Kit Kat releasing on October 14th, how long do you all think it'll take for someone to make a 4.4 ROM? I'm on 4.3 right now (CM 10.2 Linaro) and I love it...especially with this awesome kernel Neighborhoodhacker gave us. I'm just curious I guess.

i'm excited
i got my optimus g 2 weeks ago and im currently running off of cm10.2 i was doing some research and as it turns out they pulled a bunch of apps from the nexus 5 system image and now they are availible for download i tried the 4.4 launcher, updated camera, google now, play services, keyboard, and hangouts with sms integration and i cant wait to try out the actual rom.

CM just stated they are starting on KitKat but will continue to update/refine 10.2. I'm sure like stated before there's a bit of a jump so if we see 4.4 by Christmas that would be a tasty gift lol.

I'd like to say the same, but I will have to wait. I think this phone will handle 4.4 just as well. I also would like to see if it makes it back to my OG Evo. I've heard KitKat can run on older devices due to low memory usage.

Shel's already working on 4.4, from what I've seen. There was a zip posted in the irc, but the flash failed We're definitely getting it though, and I'm absolutely excited to see how it will run. I hope the battery doesn't drain too quickly.

been using CM11 m2 and m3 snapshots with no problems
Interesting that I still don't see a listing on Cyanogenmod for the ls970 when AT&T has theirs listed. I can't believe they sold that many more lgog's than sprint.
I have two phones that I updated to Cyanogenmod CM11 snapshots that are working great so far.
Don't see any real problems with any of the apps or features, but I am not a beta tester. I am using these as my everyday phones and they work as expected.
Held my breath when I rooted/unlocked and installed the new rom's since they were mine and my wife's phones. I did this because I was so pissed LG dropped support for the phone upgrades. Such a good phone to be left at 4.1.2.
Anyone that has an LGOG's on sprint should not have a problem as long as they follow the instructions on rooting and unlocking. Can't say anything about insurance and warranty, though. I found it easier to buy a used phone when one of my other phones lost its screen. Insurance is a racket and is cheaper to just get a used on ebay.
Gave a new lease on life to my phone.

We've all heard rumors that LG is testing the KitKat update on the G and G2, and rumors that AT&T might be getting it on their models... but those are just rumors unfortunately. Nothing's happened so far.

What do people want?

I have the lgog and im done playing with it. Question is what do you guys want? Ill list a few of my ideas and you guys comment and add ideas.
1. Cm10.1- obvious(it is being worked on so no need to comment)
2. Cm9 im in air on this one. Its ics which we have but we should get jb very very soon.
3. Latest stock pimped out with aroma. If many dont know about aroma roms, its basically a customizable rom that lets you build your own version with tons and tons of options. I will of course be adding many many many addons to the current list.
4. Skinny revisted.

The thing I want most is CM 10.1. Now, my question is what about LTE? I know it was a massive effort to get wimax working with cm7/9 on the evo/evo 3d. If LTE won't be working then my next choice is a slimmed down stock rom with performance/battery mods, lightly themed. And a nice kernel to go with it

I obviously have no clue about any of this, but shouldn't you be able to take the gpu drivers from the nexus 4 since it's the same hardware? I would think that the camera and lte would be the biggest issues.

If the source to korean jb is close, then skip cm9 and go for option 3 (pimped out stock rom). Its faster that way right? It should keep people happy till source drops.

It would be nice to get Franco's kernel ported over from the N4. Im sure someone knows what to do.
I already made this thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2077713, can you take a look at it, any do anything I cant do pretty much, and maybe help me learn some new stuff for my rom? b-reezy is already giving me alot of help, but is extremely busy right now.
Omg joker!! I won an s3 yesterday and decided to trade it for an optimus g instead. So happy and I did! Only because you are here! You did great with the photon I'm sure you will do fantastic with this. I just hope its not as closed as the photon was.
BTW anyone want to catch me up as to what's going on? No bootloader issues hopefully... How locked down is this phone? If at all

The problem is the source.
We have ics and ics source. No one wants to waste time making ics aosp when jb has been out going on a year soon.
They just got source for the Korean jb version of our phone this week. They are working on it but it has some differences.
None of the phones are the same. Different cameras, radios, nfc chips, modems....
That is why.

Love this phone, love the hardware, but we've been hearing it's coming "soon" for months now. LG either did this on purpose, or miraculously made this the hardest phone to develop for. I'm now regretting switching away from Samsung...who seems to be much more in tune with the Dev community and providing what's needed to let developers have their way with the phones. I wish LG would get it together and give the dev's what they need.

I swear I am not trolling.
But you said your happy you got rid of the BlackBerry and I on the other hand really want to check out the new bb10. I don't think I will buy it. As much as it has to offer it still won't compare. It does feel a niche in the community.
I think it will do well in the older market (30+ professional outside of IT). There is also a tremendous gap now in phone sizes. The only phone with a halfway normal size seems to be the iPhone and most of us still assume the phone as trendy and a fancy feature phone. Not a mini laptop like the Android.
And the reason we want JB is a lot of us downgraded on the software to get a phone with superior hardware. Furthermore, most of us thought the software would catch up sooner than it has. ICS is great but it is like the first production year of a new model of car. Jelly Bean is more refined. There are also additions in performance, battery life, smoothness, and apps.
For example, my wife's phone will tell her what the expected drive time is to work. She didn't program it. It just knows do to her normal schedule. ICS is great software. JB brings with it the very early stages of AI that adapts to your needs.
Just think what Key Lime will bring us. Eventually it will be so advanced it will go one of two ways. One, to hard to develop. Or the other which I hope for, full integration. The software will know what screen you have and radio you use. You just install and go. We won't have to count in manufacturers to release the source. The software will adapt for your nfc chip and gpu.
I honestly don't know why it has taken so long already. The SOC should do a simple handshake with the OS and be in its way.
Um, what was I taking about.

Actually scratch that. I had the 8530 so I know the pain of waiting for an os bb6, and in the end we did get it lol

Only reason i got rid of photon was because of moto's lack of drive to update phones that are more than capable of running ICS or JB.
The photon's performance would have been greatly improved

From an update standpiont, yes, Moto bites. From a general software standpoint, LG is the worst of the big names. Their OTA's run more like alphas, maybe betas. Have yet to see an LG without major software mistakes and I've worked on a fair number of them.
That being said, I know as soon as JB source drops joker, th3bill and myself are going to try to get as far away from LG's code as possible. This is mainly for our sanity.

Correct. Once Sprint JB source drops (hopefully after my move) I want to get all the devs together and go over how to approach future ROMs. I see a stock based, aosp and N4 based. Also see hybrids of all three as well as ports like Paranoid at that point.
I know we all have our strong and week points and think we should build off that for the end users. How is everybody doing for web space and domains? After the move I plan to restructure/rebuild Martian Imperium as a more multi-dev website and already have some folks on board for the change.

There's an Unofficial CM build in progress. I've been using it for a few days. The only problems are lack of camera, bluetooth issues (I can't confirm that) and the home button LEDs have been disabled. I'm sure once we have a solid CM base we'll start seeing more ROMs and ports.

And once we get a fully-working CM, it's not (IIRC) that much of a jump to a fully-working AOKP or MIUI or whatever. I have much faith in our awesome devs.

Well it took Samsung about 8 months to release Jelly Bean on the S3. So really they are all pretty bad with updates and most of that could be blamed on the carrier.
If you want immediate updates though, you have to go with Nexus.

thats not entirely true for the s3. it wasnt 8 mnths, it was like 5 - 6 mths. plus they released a couple of non-JB updates during that time before the official JB was released.

I respectfully disagree. I mean this phone came to usa in mid may to june. And in less than 2 months the value update!
I mean seriously is that not good enough?
Yes the value pack was available for korean version earlier than that but again the phone was available there first.
4.2 & 4.3 for what? its the same stuff. I was hoping from google to released a full new revamp android version..but i feel like 4.2 & 4.3 are just maintenance update to patch stuff. Yes a few things here & there...but that's it.
Now the developer support for this phone has been a little slow. But unfortunately this phone is at&t exclusive witch is stupid move from LG.
But i will buy this phone again no doubt.
I wish the camera software was better. The camera has a lot of potential but the software is not there yet.

I'm excited for updates on my N7....but pretty sure this phone will mostly run 4.1.2 as a daily driver til I get a new phone. Glitches are getting old for me personally .....and 4.1.2 is the last update we're officially getting.....and nothing later will ever be as good overall.
Just my opinion.....and again....mostly talking about stability.

I've been on my 4.3 ROM since I compiled it without one hiccup, no gallery problems, no fc's no rr's nothing yet its smooth as butter, honestly I think some of the 4.3 roms are smoother and snappier than official touchwiz...but just my two cents...

I respect your opinion and am glad its good for you......but no denying that many other people have plenty of issues. You're just lucky!
4.1.2 basically has no issues...none that can't be solved easily anyway. I am pretty lucky too....4.2.2 has never given me any major issues....but one random reboot or lockup and I'm back on 4.1.2. LOL. I've had zero issues with 4.1.2.....none that weren't solved as quick as they came anyway. 4.2.2 still has the odd issue, and for some, 4.3 has many. Even official 4.3 on my N7 has ticked me off enough that its going back to 4.2.2 when I get the chance. And 4.3 has changed nothing on my N7....for me anyway. For some it fixed lag from 4.2.2.....but I didn't lag on 4.2.2. So why deal with 4.3 when I see no improvement personally.
All personal preference of course. Just for me, nothing has been more solid on my t989 than 4.1.2.
I understand fully that the majority on xda will live with a glitch here or there to be on the latest and greatest........just for me....I'm all about stability now. Tired of glitches.
But no.....I'm not getting an iPhone.....I still like to play with my phone....and iPhone won't let ya! Lol

IF only the Nexus 5 would support sprint... lol looks like my amazing Optimus G will be around.
Even if we never get 4.4 I don't see a reason why our device would become outdated.
Who ever sees slowdowns on our device? Anyone ever see issues that would mean you have to have 4.4? My device seems just fine for me even if we don't get the official 4.4.. I am happy with my device..
The nexus 5 does support sprint! It was confirmed today!

I can't find the article but it was confirmed by sprint that if you buy the nexus 5 from Google you can activate it on sprint network.

Exactly, who cares about new phones or more cores? I love this phone, if I brake it, I would get the same again, This is enough power by far, the only thing that I have interest (And maybe others) is new features in the OS, nothing more

Yep, those at&t peeps usually get the good stuff first.
Guys, look at the link for the ATT one again.... It's for the Sprint version too. I just flashed it and it's up and running on my phone. Just make sure you follow the instructions.
Here is the link again: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2509457
Edit: While the ROM is flashed and running just fine, I can't seem to figure out how to connect to Sprint's network. He said you might have to fix your APNs or something so I'm going to try to pull the APNs.xml from another ROM and replace the one that comes standard. I'll let y'all know how it goes.

Wait, you actually flashed the AT&T ROM? The GEEB version? I've never flashed anything that wasn't meant for our phones

I sure did, but unfortunately I can't figure out how to get connected to the Sprint network.... but other than that I'm playing on KitKat
It won't connect to sprint without some work, but how is the camera? Can you connect to WiFi? And how is the voice command (if WiFi works)?

Holy shiiiitttttt. You're crazy, man! I would never think to do that, lol I'm scared. How is KK, though?
And you probably won't get data on that ROM, ever, because its for GSM. It would take a lot more than just an APN swap to get it working.

WiFi was working just fine. The camera looks exactly the same as 4.3 to me. I didn't do a whole lot of testing because I needed to get my service back, so I'm currently LGNPSTing back to stock. Feel free to try it if you like, but you'll have to LGNPST to get your service back. And if it bricks your device you can't blame me.
I'll just be patient and wait for a Sprint release or go get a Nexus 5... Haven't decided yet.

I wasn't about to try it. I got all the kit kat apk's running on my carbon install and pretty happy with a mocked up kit kat install for the moment.
