Okay, here's the deal. I used the UOT Kitchen to make some more colorful notification bar icons. If I flash v 1.1c and let it boot, and then flash the UOT update file everything works. But if I replace the two UOT modded files in the v 1.1c flash and then flash the rom there is no notification bar. So for some reason I cannot figure out, the phone must boot without the UOT mods one time, then flash the UOT mods and everything still works. So I am going to post the link for the UOT mods. I am going to post a new v 1.1e that fixes the build.prop for market issues. After flashing that boot once and then boot into CWM and flash the UOT Kitchen mods. It's the only way I can get it to work right now. The UOT flash only takes a few second so not a big deal. This means if you do a factory reset after flashing the UOT mods the status bar will probably be missing again after the factory reset. If you factory reset and the status bar is missing simply flash v 1.1e again, boot and then flash the UOT Kitchen mods again. Best I can do for now.

New Happy New Year 2012 version 1.1d. More colorization in the notification bar (some icons from UOT Kitchen). New fun pattern lockscreen and CM regular lockscreen also from UOT kitchen. Market issue fixed so protected apps can be downloaded with no issues. Other minor fixes I cannot remember as I did the changes a while ago. Still some known issues and described in post link here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=209

LG Camera added. I have ported the LG Camera from the P990 2.3.4 build and as far as I can tell it is working perfectly. New version uploading now and there is an updater if you have already installed this rom. Note: The front facing camera (FFC) is inverting the video. At the moment there is no fix for it. If you need the FFC for video chat, etc. please keep the stock camera app.

Note: If you want to access LG Hidden Menus on this rom you need to enter 1809#*95# into the dialer since the base rom was ported from an LG-L95G device (the hardware is identical to the P999).

Original Thread
I am starting a new thread because this is a different version of my ROM pulled from the LG-L95G (same hardware as the LG-P999 in every aspect). I was attempting to port the new 2.3.4 ROM from the P990 that LG released in Europe (Italy to be specific). I got a rom that booted and almost everything worked except for the cell signal. After trying everything I could think of to get the signal working, I decided to take another approach. What I have done is taken my 2.3.4 stockish rom and skinning it with files from the P990 rom. So far what I have got working is colored icons in settings, the entire rom is now the LG blue theme (which I think looks really nice) and new notification bar icons. I cannot figure out why the Google data turning the icons green doesn't work in the P999 roms, but it does work in the P990 roms. I haven't found the difference yet to make this work, so I just made them green all the time as it looks better, in my opinion. I also implemented the crt screen of animation so when you unlock your screen you no longer see your old screen first.

I am also going to try and port LG Home (the LG UI) over as an option but it has a lot of dependencies and that is going to take a while to implement. So I am releasing an initial release of the rom with the changes I have accomplished so far. I have attached some screen shots. I will also work on porting the LG camera later.

If you have already installed my 2.3.4 rom based on the LG-L95G rom you can just run the updater zip to get the colorized version.

Right now cam is google cam. LG cam from P990 going to be ported over if I can get it working well.

This is great just what I.was wanting a little color.
BTW is there a reason the build prop is read only?
I wanted to change the LCD density thanks in advance

You have to use a tool like Root Explorer and have root permissions to edit the build.prop. If it is set to read only you can change permissions in root explorer to anything you want.

Flashed updater everything went fine im using UMA version for T-Mobile wifi calling features of v. 6b and I have usb tether with win 7 64 bit
Thanks for all your hard work! This rom has added more life to my phone.
This is the snappiest rom I have used on here.

Edit: hey J pardon my ignorance but when I try to change permissions it tells me that build prop permissions cannot be changed because the file is read only.

Yea, if you use the updater everything remains the same. The files that are changed are /system/frameowrk/framework-res.apk, /system/app/Settings.apk and /system/app/SettingsuUI.apk. If you already have the TMO UMA stuff on there it won't touch it.

BTW, how well is your UMA wifi calling working? Some people have reported they cannot get it to connect.
