The new update cannot be installed with clockwork recovery! You have to do it with fastboot, as described in the first post! Just as an info ;)

that was the LG keyboard. search for it on this thread, because it was posted for download. you must install it through clockwork. It's something like LG_IME.zip

Appreciate the help.

I found the LG_IME zip file, but can't access Recovery mode (Home+Power?) to install it from the SDCard, as per instructions I've seen. I, instead, just get a black screen, the same as the fastboot screen.

Going to install 4.4. Hopefully this comes with the recovery.img file that is seemingly needed to access recovery mode and install this pesky keypad! :D

Update about USB tethering (sharing 3g internet from phone to computer):
there is no support for usb or wifi tethering in this rom because it has no android apps for that in /data/data/ directory. I found that wifi tethering can be enabled using additional application (barnacle wifi tether) but I can't find any solution for USB tethering... :mad:

So given the LG_IME keyboard needs Clockwork Recovery to be installed, will that not work with this latest update, that can only be fastbooted?

I really don't fancy flashing Clockwork to my phone to get this keypad on there. Can't see why it was removed in the first place, tbh.

I tested updating with recovery, it doesnt work, must be a mistake in translation.

@he6rt6gr6m: Clockwork won't be removed if you install the new version via fastboot!! It will still be there!

    He's talking about the kernel version #398 I think. If you want to know what's changed you should read the changelog ;)

    BTW here's the Touchscreen Calibration app that's missing from OpenSwift - I never had a problem with the default calibration but I know some people have asked for this app:
    http://www.mediafire.com/?e47aloxaujxo2o1

    You need to create a /data/nv folder with root explorer, then install the apk as normal.
