Can someone please explain to me the implications of this article for G3 development... Or tell me its irelevant?
CNET: LG to launch new phone with its own 'Odin' AP. http://google.com/newsstand/s/CBIws46Yzh8

Please excuse my noob question.
Also, I realize it says this:
Q11: Can I convert one model to another (example: D852 to D855)?
NO! Do not try to do that.
Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/help/help-thread-lg-g3-question-t2947298
Considering the T-Mobile G3 (D851) and the International G3 (D855) supposedly have the same chipset (Qualcomm MSM8975AC Snapdragon 801), could I theoretically flash the stock KDZ files for the D855 on the D851? Considering I'm probably going to receive no as the answer, why? Basically, what specifically are the differences that prevent the above from being successful?
Last but not least, if the above isn't possible, how could one port a STOCK rom from the D855 to the D851?

The difference in the way the bootloader works and how the system does the security checks is the reason why

You wouldnt and noone would help you because its a waste of time
I appreciate the response, however, the second part of the answer was very opinionated. I can decide for myself what a waste of time is. I'm looking for an answer that will point me in the right direction. I want to start developing custom ROMs/Kernels, but I would like to gain some knowledge about porting first.

You misread the information on the op first post. I would believe to save those who do. He renamed the way his work was because he was also building a g3 ROM.
Or at least I remember reading something like that.
I have a 855 international LG g3 phone. Can I flash a custom T Mobile ROM on a D855 16GB?

That would be best fitted for Gen Questions and Help section, Not this section,
But to answer your question, If you know what your doing, It can be done, But because you asked the question,
I know you have no clue how. So please dont attempt it, or you will end up bricking your phone................
And when I said it can be done, Thats with modifying a few of the files and changing the ramdisk.. But as I said,
Dont try it.
Hey everyone. I've been searching for a while now, but no results, so please excuse the potentially noobish question.
My G4 was a pre-release unit from LG and at the back it says H815 0420.
Any idea if any of the developmental stuff would be compatible or I'm just stuck with stock?
Hello there, everyone I'm newbie here and i wanna ask which CUSTOM ROM should i use for my LG G7 Verizon, i wanna use it for emulation (Skyline for sure, but its minimum requirements is Android 10) G7 Verizon's Android 9 really sucks, i mean the US variant of G7 got Android 10 update but mine's not.
