Hope the slimroms team doesn't mind that I hijacked their OP template. If anyone on the team has an issue, PM me and I can change it so it doesn't look plagiarized.

They should work the same as in the cm build in the other thread...

I don't have a BT device to test, so try it out and let me know.

You will need to flash the quickset apks that are posted in that thread to get the ir working. I haven't had a chance to try it yet, but it should work since I'm using the same device repos as our cm ROM.

Oh, and I just noticed the build I posted doesn't have the camera working for some reason, but I'll post another build as soon as I can figure it out. I think I'm just missing something in a makefile.

Group messaging is also not working which for me is a pretty important factor for me but I do understand as we are just getting ROMs for the g pro

I don't use this. do you know if it's working in cm10?

I did a fresh build overnight but camera is still not working. I need to dig a little deeper when I have some time, hopefully tonight.

    No optimus g pro at supported devices :(

    that's because i'm doing these as unofficial/unsupported builds because i don't have the time to be an official device maintainer, plus i believe they have someone who was working on our device officially (although that never seemed to go anywhere).

    nevertheless, once i have a chance to do some troubleshooting on our device tree, i should be able to get fully functional builds for the ogp.

    i'm running a clean build right now so if you cross your fingers maybe there will be good news tonight or tomorrow...

    hey all, so apologies for the lack of updates but after my Linux vm took a dump it's been really slow getting things going again. I've been really busy with life so I haven't had time to figure out why my last couple attempts at builds failed. I'll try a clean build today and hopefully get this Rom back up and running.

    If anyone wants to post their own builds feel free!

    None of the sensor worked except the sound sensor. That's why the landscape mode didn't work.
    Tested using android sensor box.
    clean flash

    What phone are you using? If it's not the e980, that might be the problem. Everything is working perfectly on my phone.

    Now that I (finally) got everything back up and building cleanly, I'm going to try switching bases from madmack's unofficial CM to the official CM, which has better support for all of the 98x GPro variants plus things like the camera button and smart cover.


    As for 4.4 kitkat, you'll all have to be patient since there is not support for any devices other than a small handful of nexus line phones. Once everyone gets it going then I can see about adding support for the GPro. Patience will serve you well...
