1. Transparent statusbar
2. Knock off
3. Guest Mode
4. Wifi signal strength improved
5. Excellent MTP data transfer speed
6. Light sensor perfectly working
7. Buttery smooth with no lag so far
8. Extremely fast multitasking
9. Antutu score crosses the boundary of 27k
10. QSlide can be removed from the notification tray
11. Lots of apps as QSlide, e.g. Phone, messaging, file manager etc
12. Date and time are on top in Status Bar
13. Wireless Storage
14. Camera interface reorganized and has different skin
15. Lockscreen widgets
16. Pressing the volume button gives a volume bar with volume settings button
17. Capture a webpage in browser
18. Multiple Storage in clipTray
19. Best battery time to date (screenshots attached)

Q&A for F240S V20C Kitkat on E980

Installation instructions
1. From your 4.1.2 stock ROM, rooted, cwm (I used 6.0.4.4) installed. Boot into recovery cwm.
2. Do a wipe of cache
3. Install only the ROM downloaded and wipe cache.
4. Memory card won't show, its OK ,don't panic, root your ROM using roottool.kitkat.zip( search and download ).
5. Reboot system and confirm root.
6. Reboot to recovery and flash KK-E980-STOCK-LG-by-madmack.zip and Build-prop-rev03.zip in that order .
7. Clear cache and reboot system.
(Microphone and SD card problems solved permanently)

My device is E988. It also works for all other E98x .

Sorry I haven't worked on an LG F240, check the other link for a different baseband and ROM. But you can't upgrade with Root, you should flash stock and then upgrade to later rom without root if you using your device OTA update.

    Finally upgraded to KitKat :victory:
    But why no guest mode and only got 2 themes :mad:

    There is a guest mode but it's hidden. You have to install quickshortcutmaker from Play.
    Scroll down to Home and click on Home guest mode.

    Then click on Create. A Home icon will be created on your home screen.

    Once you click on the Home icon, this is what you get.

    You have to use pattern lock.
