Hi all,
I have just noticed that AndroidArmv6 has started the Omni Rom for Gio.
You can find more details here: http://jenkins.androidarmv6.org/job/omni-ota/
and download the latest build that supports OTA updates from here: http://dl.androidarmv6.org/.
I have not tried it myself yet. Test at your own risk!
Cheers.
Testing later
I will see if it's functioning on my Gio.
Any reports will be posted here.
Edit:
RZR, PX recovery and CWM all report Status 7.
I wanted to download the kernel source for the find7a from CM Github. I got the link from here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Find7_Info
But it seems broken (404 Page Not Found). Where can I get the correct kernel? I have not found it on the CM Github page over a manual search either. Can I use the OnePlus kernel? I heard that the devices share the same kernel...

Here's the kernel from Oppo, not sure if that's what CM is using.
https://github.com/oppo-source/Find7-Kernel-Source-4.3
EDIT: The CM builds for the find7 do use the msm8974 kernel that the OnePlus uses, as that's the kernel code that gets pulled when compiling CM builds. The wiki page has been updated, here's the link to the kernel code.

Hello everybody,
I'm back on the forums after being away for some time.
In the meantime I got myself my own LG Optimus G to be able to get to effective developing for this device.
My opinion is that this device is a powerfull device with a lot of "still to be unlocked" potential.
Before I bought the LG Optimus G I used the Samsung Galaxy S Plus, which had a very active and good developers which even today still perfectly support this old device.
When that phone launched it contained Android 2.3.6, but today it supports even the Android 4.4.4 builds (unoffical).
One of the most important steps in achieving this goal was to move from the Samsung provided kernel source to the CAF (Code Aurora Forum) based kernel source.
Because I wish the LG Optimus G the same future as my old device, I would like to get busy with bringing up the CAF kernel codebase on the LG Optimus G.
This will be a big project which is why I request fellow developers which are interested in this project to please join and form a development team with a common goal.
What needs to be done is:
- Obtain official LG Optimus G (Android 4.4) kernel sourcecode from: LGE975_G_Kitkat_Android_V20a_Kernel.zip
- Obtain latest CAF Kernel codebase (chipset apq8064) from: msm-5bfc8718998bedfeea1997d83838ffd1981cbf12.tar.gz (Last modification date: 30-06-2014)
- Extract added LGE Specific code and drivers from the official LG kernel source.
- Set-up a team Github with the clean CAF codebase, which all the driver and LG specific code will be added to.
If you're interested in helping with this project please contact me or leave a message over here.
Please no spamming etc.
Greetings PsychoGame
Hello everybody,
A little status update:
At this moment a 2-man team has been formed.
We have a team Github set-up for the development process this team will have.
The github link is: https://github.com/OptimusG-Dev-Team
If you are interested in giving us a helping hand with this project you're more than welcome.
Leave a message in this forum thread or contact me through a PM.
Experience with linux and also with the kernel is of course important.
Greetings PsychoGame
Bravo. Im hopeless in terms of what ever you code ninjas do, just wanted to let you know that i and most likely all in LGOG community greatly value this project. If you haven't already, perhaps PM some kernel devs as this would help in project gaining momentum and improved outcomes.
Happy to see that you're back psycho. Very brilliant idea. I hereby tag some devs to attract their attention. @faust93 @Loller79 , @jollaman999 , @Kevinjoa , @ThatKawaiiGuy , @xboxfanj , @JustinXu , @houstonn
Hey, I don't know much about kernel stuff, I'm learning Java atm so might be able to give tips. Not a lot though.
I don't have the Optimus G anymore (haven't since March), so I won't be able to do a ton, but I can help solve issues if/when needed.

I don't have kernel knowledge that much... I just referenced other dev's kernel sources and fix it to my style.
But thanks for mention to me.
It'll take some time, but I'm sure we get there.
Thank you for tagging some other devs inside this thread so it raises more awareness.
Everybody is welcome to join this project, for example clone the repositories, making changes and contribute.
That's exactly what opensource is all about.
And of course if you're interested in joining the team just send me a PM and I'll bring you up to speed on the progress/process and give you the needed information.
At this moment I'm also in contact with a official LG Developer which hopefully can provide me with some information that will help this porting process as well.
Greetings PsychoGame

What about @houstonn ? Also I don't have any knowledge about this sort of thing really but I'll ask some other debs around to see if they want to join.

Generally, if you look at the branch of the libEGL_adreno file (using strings or hexedit), you can figure out what tag the OEM used (or branch) and then plop their source over that, then git pull the latest branch on top and fix any conflicts.

Thanks for the information xboxfanj . I never noticed the branch information inside the LibEGL_adreno files.
This also helps a lot with the extraction of the LGE added code as the branch is now as close to the LG used sources.
This keeps the extracted LGE patches as clean as possble to almost only include the LGE added stuff.

No problem. Let me know if you need help. Obviously, I can't test anything, but I should be able to help you get things building.
Oh, i noticed this thread just now.
I can help but i don't have much free time these months.
The idea is interesting from what i've seen, if you want another hand contact me via pm

Today we've updated the proj-kernel repository with fully patched kernel sourcecode.
With a few small 'hacks' we are able to build the j1vd-perf_defconfig to the end.
What remains is getting the updated kernel to boot on the Optimus G boards.
At least the project is moving forward.
Just wanted to give everybody a update on the progress we're making.
Greetings PsychoGame
Here I'm back with some great news for everybody.
Today the kernel which was built using our sourcecode has succesfully booted on stock KK rom from LG.
The next steps we'll be taking will be getting the kernel to work with CM11 as well.
This way I hope we will have a perfectly stable and up-to-date kernel for the Optimus G which will work for Stock as well as CM based roms.

very nice job mate. I think in this step @faust93 can help a lot.
Is this kernel work specific to E975, or will it be compatible with for example Sprint variant LS970?

At the moment it is based off E975 sources so it won't work on ls970 and similar.
Running it on my phone now and it works flawlessly.
Please thank a lot the team that made this possible and xboxfanj who helped with the project.
What's up guys? Is there anything we can help with? any test version or something?

Can you give any more info? I flashed the omni-4.4.4-20141212-t0lteatt-COUGMADE.zip build yesterday and haven't seen any issues (yet)?

The t0ltetmo build was broken initially. The install wouldn't initially boot on my device. I pulled both links as a precaution. I changed a file in the process inadvertently during the tmo build. It apparently didn't hurt the att build. I'm going to test a build later today and put up new links.

Aha, ok. Explains why everything is working great for me
Thanks for the reply, and for making these builds!
Does this ROM need to be flashed via recovery or can it be done via Odin?

Coug's instructions in the thread and the Omnirom install instructions both say to flash via TWRP.
OK. Ty was just wondering because my note 2 doesn't seem to flash properly via recovery
the zip fails to install, I did confirm that the md5 matched on the download.
Is there a dedicated bugs page where i can check up on the bugs before switching..im running ressurection remix but ive always loved omni...
Only stopped using it coz the devs gave up on it coz they were busy with other projects... If u can provide one thats fine but if not if anyone just give me a reason why not to make this my daily driver again that will be fine... Otherwise i really want omni bak...
It gave me the best benchmark scores on my note 2 and really i cant get enough of it
Thanks a lot for restarting it
