Hi everyone, at popular demand, here is the CM10.1 rom for E975.

What is working

Everything.

What is not working

You tell me.

Here are the repo needed for our devices :

https://github.com/TeamLGOG

Using google URL short link because our organization name is not a safe word. Not to say that I didn't choose the name.

Of course, you have to be rooted, to have bootloader unlocked and a working recovery to flash this custom rom. I will post a first rom soon, it will be really early alpha tho and bug reporting is welcome to make a good list of things to fix. Any help is also welcome.

DO NOT FLASH NEXUS 4 KERNEL MADE BY 3rd PARTY. THIS WILL MOSTLY PERMA BRICK YOUR DEVICE.

This is simply because people tend to use partition number and not by-name and our partition is different than nexus 4 ones. i.e. The rpm partition on our phone is the boot partition on nexus 4. So flashing a custom kernel will flash a boot.img in your rpm partition and then you are bricked. You have been warned.

Like usually, i can't be hold responsible if you damage your phone during any of the process described in this thread.

Thanks :

All the downloads will go here :

ribs.bbqdroid.org

(If a rom is labelled notouch or donotflash, i recommand you to not flash it.)

Gapps package :

http://goo.im/gapps

Modem :

There is a newer modem now available (From JB update. Houstonn and I extracted each of them and made flashable so you don't need to do the painful process of kdz only to get a new baseband)

MAKE SURE TO NOT FLASH KOREAN MODEM.

This require you to have TWRP or CWM already installed on your device. I recommand the former. On our device, this mainly mean you have rooted your phone and unlocked the bootloader.

Apparently, it seems these instruction where not clear enough. So I'll try to make them dumbproof. If you are not following these instruction and it doesnt work, dont expect support. It's like buying a cake mix where you only need to add milk and call the company saying their product is bull****, you added water and only got a brick. To add to this metaphor, Asking if it's because you used CWM instead of twrp or reverse is like saying : Did it didnt work because i used a fork instead of a whip to mix it ?

  1. Download file in the download section.
  2. Put the rom AND the gapps on your internal SDCard.
  3. Reboot into recovery.
  4. Flash CM rom.
  5. Flash Gapps package.
  6. DO A FACTORY RESET (EMPHASIS HERE)
  7. reboot into system

Will test it when ill be home.
10pm by korean time.

Hope everything works!
Andd thank you!


By the way is there any chances u can add support of korean dmb?
Cause both koreas is about nuke/bomb each other, so dmb is some kind of emergency notification radio.

Just installed it, everything works but i got no signal on F180K.
Also it says E973

Any suggestions?

P.S. Is there any easy way to restore the modem?
Cause flashing E975.kdz -> F180K.kdz with all data lost is kinda annoying.

P.S. Flashed F180K modem and restored EFS via Freegee. Still no signal whyyyyy :(

The camera works but as 8mpx

Also CM looks absolutely different from the stock.
Its not just a theme, but color temperature is either different. Looks not bad but really confusing.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY GOT SIGNAL WORKING on F180K!!!!!
Big thanks to aleksei74.

What i did:
1)Edited build.prop
telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice=1
telephony.lteOnGsmDevice=1
ro.telephony.default_network=8
ro.ril.def.preferred.network=8
ril.subscription.types=NV,RUIM

2)Factory reset. Actually that was what he adviced, and that didnt work lol.
3)So i moved to mobile network settings, changed the subscription from NV to RUIM/SIM
4)Reset
5)Profit

P.S. Im very happy today!

I loved the CM for E973 and I really hate to use the stock ROM at the time.. it so ugly, buggy, slower and uses way more battery (of my experince)

Actually,they are on the right track.default camera app shows 8mpx camera,but lgcamerapro shows 12mpx.
I guess chad will crack this nut soon and we'll have normal camera.
Ps,photosphere works like a charm.

@tim, on galaxy note it took alot of time to improve the camera.when 4.2.2 first hit the note, the camera was crappy.and samsung has alot of support from CM.Now,with lg, not so sure,there aren't many devs,so it will take time.Better fix the kernel and we can use 3rd party apps to take photos and videos.
@nick, yes, with lgcamera pro you can take widescreen photos.Besides,it has alot of features.you can try the free version before buy it.
@chad,if you ever need a guinea pig to test things, let me know :).

Chad,like i said,great job and thanks.
Some issues though:
1.dialer error,when i'm initiating a call,i get "call ended" message and the dialer exits almost instantly,but the call continues and it's shown on statusbar after 2-3 seconds.
2.when i open stock dialer,i get a fc on contacts.if i open contacts from app drawer,i don't have option to initiate call.
Btw,this happens with any dialer from playstore.
This is it for now,will report later.

Calls - works fine
Sms - works fine
Internet - works fine
Camera - limited to 8mpx, has problems with scenery/white balance
Sound - works fine
Just checked contacts, also works fine
