Hey everyone,is there any guide to bump your own rom to flash to another g3?is there a kitchen or something?thanks in adv.
Roms do not need to be bumped. Boot images do if they are modified from stock lg (kernels). If the ROM uses stock lg kernels then it does not need any bump modifications.
The bump process is not released yet. They are working on some issues to make sure it doesn't cause any long term issues they don't want lg to do anything that causes a brick risk when they try to patch bump. We just have to be patient.

My Dad recently bought this device.
Why still no good custom rom for this phone?
Anything problem with root or bootloader or recovery?
Or
Still no developer to build it?
Look at the dev section, the smart guys are working on it but it don't seems to be an easy nut to crack...

They are trying to Port the CM/MIUI Rom.
I really appreciate that.
What about Custom ROM?
CyanogenMod and MIUI ROMs are custom ROMs.
If you're asking for additional custom ROMs, AFAIK no one has yet done so.
I'm asking about Custom Rom which is made out of Official Rom(Arc Rom).
Because unwanted Application removed,app2sd etc....
So root your dad's device and remove the junk
I think noone released such a ROM because we all want to keep the ability to do updates through OTA.

I've been going all around the forum not being able to figure out what ROMS and kernels will work with T999v Wind version of the S3. I bricked my phone once already by installing the wrong kernel, so I don't wanna mess around again too much without knowing what roms and kernels are working. I've read around that we can flash T-mobile roms as long as they don't contain radio files. I also read on another thread that as long as the boot, modem and amss files aren't in the rom, we're good to go. Now I'm pretty new to the Android community so I'd like some help before I have another disaster on my hands.
Thanks.
*Disclaimer: I am not a Wind user so don't quote me on this but...
I don't believe any of the custom roms in the T Mobile dev forum come with radios. Except for the stock images made to flash with Odin. The main thing to remember as far as kernels go, if you flash a touchwiz rom you need a touchwiz (or stock) kernel. If you flash an AOSP rom you need an AOSP kernel or you will be stuck in a bootloop.
BTW, this rom has been confirmed working on Wind Mobile.
Thanks. Now I had a question about kernels. They still need to be for the T-Mobile version of the phone right? As long as that's true I shouldn't really have a problem using the kernel?

Yes, I believe you will be fine with any T Mobile specific kernels. Still, the important thing before flashing anything is to make sure you make a backup just in case.
That rom will work fine.

I'm on a Wind GS3 and I'm currently using FreeGS3 R5 with Trinity Alpha 19 kernel. Works great.
edit: Just updated to R6, still great.
Hi,
I’m waiting for my LG G Pad 8.3 (still in the mail, should be here by the end of the week!!!) and I have a few questions about it. I plan to root it but I would like to know a few things before doing this as I’m not an expert with “rooting devices”…
1) If I root the device but not install any custom ROM or custom Recovery, will I still receive the automatic OTA update from LG? Of what I understood, if you don’t modify any “system” files, install custom ROM or Recovery, you should be able to get OTA update?
2) If I decide to install a custom ROM/Recovery and then want to go back to the stock ROM, Is it available for download? I checked (quickly) on the forum and I didn't see any link to download it (stock ROM from LG).
Thanks in advance!

1)you probably can not update ota on stock rooted fw. I had asked the same question to the developer of the root method for our devices and this is what he had said:
dalingrin said:
My suggestion, if you want to keep root don't take an OTA.
If you really want to stay with stock LG then you'll want to flash updates via custom recovery. The community will take the updates from LG and make them flashable with TWRP or CWM.

Thanks for your reply! If the update from LG will be available for download so I can flash it, this work with me! I might not keep the stock ROM too... I never had an android device from LG so I'm not sure how it look like... If there is too much bloatware (like Samsung), I won't keep it.

Just to make sure... Stock Kernel = Stock ROM? So the "LG G Pad Sock Kernel.img" is the latest version of the stock ROM from LG?

There is too much bloatware in this tablet just like the Samsung ones. In my opinion the stock rom is worthy if you want maximum stability or you need the lg apps.
No, kernel with rom are different things, google rom vs kernel. The stock kernel is for people who have flashed custom kernels and want to revert back to stock. If you look in the original android development section of these forums you ll see that there are 2 custom kernels and more custom roms available for our tablet atm.

Thanks for the info! I'm not very familiar with this but I'm getting there! I'm reading related post/subject (rooting device) on the xda-developers forum so this help me a lot! I should receive my tablet tomorrow or Thursday so I'll test/inspect it to make sure everything is ok with it and than try to root it.
Did you root yours? Are you using a custom ROM on it?

I had rooted it when dalingrin released the adb root method as I couldn't trust the kingo root method. Adaway and titanium backup are some of the top apps but these apps need root. Also you won't be able to move apps or games to SD without root. I flashed cyanogen mod 11 some days ago and I'm totally satisfied with it. The gpad became faster, with more ram available and with less battery consumption.

I'll use the root method of dalingrin then! I installed CM on my old device and I liked it so I might test it on my G Pad! There is no big issues with it? I know that it still in "Nightlies status so it might not be "stable". I'm looking forward to receive my G Pad!

CM runs stable on G Pad as of now. Very few features are lacking and you can check the CM thread nad if you have half an hour to spare you can go through the change log as well.
For the love of God, do not mistake a rom for a kernel. And remember that a kernel is usually made for a specific ROM. Kernels will improve performance on specific ROM's.. And enable new features under the hood and so on. But if you install a stock kernel onto a CM rom, it would be like filling a car with the wrong fuel and it would most likely get stuck in bootloop until you reflash a compatible kernel. - As stated above there are 2 custom kernels, one is ported for a few of the custom roms.. The other one as far as I know is pretty empty atm. and is aiming at becoming Play Edition-"like", I don't remember for what ROM. On certain mainstream devices you will find many a kernel and usually something that will suit your needs. Perhaps this will happen with the G Pad at some point.
Good luck on your rooting adventures and feel free to ask anything if you hit a wall at some point.
I received my G Pad yesterday! I rooted it by using the “dalingrin” method, installed TWRP and then CM11 (the stock ROM had too much bloatware for me!). Everything worked without any issue so now I can enjoy my new toys! I was hesitating between the Nexus 7 and the G Pad and I’m very happy that I chose the G Pad!
Thanks again for your replies/help guys!

I told you that it has too much bloatware, you did the right thing! I was also balancing between nexus 7 fhd and gpad and i picked the gpad for its 8.3" screen.
Hey guys I just started playing around with ROMS and I have some questions. I'm running Cyanogenmod 11 (5.0.2) right now and I'm kind of confused about how to try out other mods. For example I'd like to flash a kit kat CyanogenMod. Is it possible to run different versions of OS from the recovery? Can I switch between Lollipop roms and KitKat roms with no problems? and when I do flash another rom, how do I keep my settings and apps for the rom I'm about leave? And one more question, what is the best recovery to use? I'm using TWRP right now. Sorry for all the noob questions guys. Thanks for reading and I hope to read your responses.

the only way you can downgrade to kitkat in order to flash other kitkat roms is if you did a backup of you old kitkat rom including the efs. If you didn't you're stuck on lollipop. When flashing a new rom you can't save your setting but you can back up all your apps + data with titanium backup. It's not advisable to restore data as well as it can cause problems, so just restore the apps.

Couldn't he do a flash of the stock rom with lg flash tool?
I know this is old, but where did you get cm11 for this phone. All I can find is cm12 and they're unofficial nightlies.

Hi,
Now I'm running stock v30c rooted by king root and hacer permissivo(one of the method available on xda). I've flashed twrp by autorec.
My question is:
Should I know something before flashing custom rom? I read somewhere that some of roms need v21c modem, and other have no information about it. But I'm not sure if I should flashing this.
Basically I'm thinking right now about custom stock based roms.
One more, I see that some roms supporting CTT(AFAIK it's something about keep the phone cooled, am I right?). Is it supported by every kernel? Including stock one?
I'm coming from G2 and there were quite easier with everything .
Thanks for every answer.

If you are planning to flash stock based roms you don't need to do anything else including flashing the baseband. Only aosp based roms need 21C baseband. So if you flash a aosp based rom remember to flash 21C along with it.
The ctt mod works on most kernels including stock but you don't necessarily need to use it until when you feel uncomfortable temperature.
