[Flashing Guide] AOSPA 4.4.2 (PA 4.0 beta) for E975/F180

AhsonAli · Feb 19, 2014

A very big thanks to @houstonn for his work... really love it when he develops something for our forgotten device.. <3

Original ROM thread : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2228880

Kernel for E975 : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=50448797 (its same original rom thread, post number #3988 by @houstonn himself

somehow I can not get the link to that single post)

STEPS:

Download the Rom : http://90.hostingsharedbox.com:3000/roms/geeb/

Download Gapps : http://goo.gl/mYKmfL - RECOMMEND mini modular PA Gapps

Download the Kernel : http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2588004&d=1392795429

if you have a F180 Device see 2nd Post before going any further....

1- Put these in a folder on your SD Card

2- Make sure your phone is atleast 60% charged

4- Boot into recovery

5- make sure these three files are accessible from recovery.

6- Do a NANDroid backup.

7- Wipe 4 things : Data, Cache, Dalvik and System (DO NOT WIPE YOUR INTERNAL STORAGE)

8- - Flash the ROM
- Flash Gapps
- Flash the Kernel
- Wipe Dalvik and Cache and Reboot into System.

on Language Selection Select English (US), because UK didn't work for me (Black Screen) and let the device take its time once everything is loaded open up Settings, Scroll down to the bottom Go into About phone and tap on the Build Number 10 times to activate Developer settings.
Reboot and enjoy the rom....

and Don't forget to thank the Developer @houstonn on Original Thread : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2228880

For F180 Devices edit your Build.Prop before Flashing any Custom Rom.

> Download the flashable rom ZIP on your Computer
> Download Notepad++ on your Windows OS.
> Open the zip file and without extracting it go to System and open up "Build.Prop" in Notepad++
> In that file scroll down to telephony section you'll see something like
"telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice=0
telephony.lteOnGsmDevice=1
ro.telephony.default_network=9"

> Remove these and replace them with these

telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice=1
telephony.lteOnGsmDevice=1
ro.telephony.default_network=8
ro.ril.def.preferred.network=8
ril.subscription.types=NV,RUIM

>Save it and make change to zip

now copy that modified zip to internal sd card and flash the rom after wiping data,dalvik,cache and system.
flash gapps
flash kernel
wipe dalvik/cache

and flash ur valid modem in recovery

flashable zip modems : http://downloads.codefi.re/houstonn/lgog/modem/korean

thanks @houstonn for these aswell...

Reboot into System

after start up
go to Mobile Network Settings

Select these options

CDMA Subscription Type : "RUIM/SIM"

Preffered Network Type : "GLOBAL"

Reboot
and enjoy the rom
