This is a collection of goods for our Optimus G. You can find them on other XDA threads, one by one, or you can come here for most everything.
This is a work in progress - I will update from time to time, at least once per week.
Credit to the respective OP's.
A couple of FAQ's -
Q: Will the things posted here work on other Optimus G models?
A: This is for the AT&T LG E970.
It would be best to go to device specific forums.
Q: Is everything in alphabetical order?
A: No. I have tried to list oldest to newest based on initial release, excluding
updates.
Q: Can I suggest adding something I feel will be useful to others?
A: Yes, please do.
Q: Pony, are you really a horse?
A: No. I am a Labrador retriever impersonating a horse. ::what::

When reporting an issue with a ROM, providing a logcat to the developer is most helpful for determining the cause and quite helpful with regard to a fix. Unless otherwise directed, posting a logcat on Pastebin and providing the dev a link works well.
In addition to this Tutorial, apps are available on Play, eg. Alogcat, providing of course your device IS able to boot into the ROM.

Thank you to everyone on the XDA Forums !! This is a great place to learn and share what we learn with others.
It would not be possible to list all those whom I have learned from, a tribute to the large number of very talented people all over.
Two people that have given me inspiration, knowledge, and a shared sense of humor - JudgeJosephDredd, Forum Moderator and qkster, Recognized Contributor/Recognized Developer - thank you both for everything !!
Clicking 'Thanks' is a great way of showing appreciation !
