Tips

In Settings>XYE Tools>Navigation Bar check Hidden navbar enable and set drag handle width to 0% to remove NavBar

In Settings>About Phone tap multiple times on Build Number to enable Developement menu - Thanks l337krew for pointing that out

Built with same kernel and device tree as AOKP and liquid.... If they work this should too

Maybe development is hidden by default? If you go into about phone and keep hitting build number several times, does it appear?

Hmm... not really sure, I havn't experienced that...yet... did you try to flash again? maybe something went wrong..

I've had the phone freeze on me once during the initial google setup/signin on liquid, rebooting didn't result in bootloops though. There is still a bug causing the phone to lockup(ususally from what i've seen when screen is off and a text comes in) but it is not consistant, with all of my roms... Hopefully be putting more time into that soon.

anyways, hopefully a reflash will sort you out....

I know chad had been looking into that same sod issue, I'm pretty sure he sorted it out in CM.

nice, i havn't been keeping up on what's been going on, i'll pick his brain about in a while, see if he's got suggestions/solution

I'll try fresh install after phone charges also I was running liquid and after about a week with no problems all of a sudden my phone when I got to about 58% battery would soft brick and I'd have to plug it in to wall charger for about 45 mins before I could boot into recovery again ... Again don't know if that's something I did or something you may know about other than those two bugs your work is great running AOKP right now really love it but this ROM looks very cool hope I can get it to work thanks again

To be honest, since i started building, i've not run a rom that long. I havn't seen/heard of that issue yet, hopefully not a reoccuring thing amongst people.

I personally run aokp as my daily, generally only make sure liquid and xylon boot and major functions are working before i switch back to aokp. Been an aokp fan since it was first put out.

Let me know if you see something like this again(on any rom, since they all use the same kernel and VERY similar device/vendor) and i'll look into it more at that point, for now chalking it up to an abnormality for time being....

Paulicat · Apr 22, 2013

I just had this happen on your AOKP build, it happened right after I got a notification sod...which is why I was trying to get another kernel building in AOKP using your guide.

Have you tried XYLON from this links:
http://main.develoid.com:82/lg/Optimus G/CustomRom/

It's a port from Nexus 4 for E975.

The ROM is from end of June, and as far I remember the only issue was BT calls.

Yes did tried. Im using SlimBean from this Cloud as daily driver. All this ports from this cloud using CM as base. That means you will never feel the real speed of xylon or paranoid or what else, only the look and functions. Don't understand me wrong im very thankfull for these ports. This Xylon here is build from source and you really feel the difference in speed and you can use the best kernel we have for it (smoocha).
