Ill give this a go, thanks :)

---------- Post added at 10:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:00 AM ----------

Ok flashed no issues, couple of issues once in use

1. Auto Rotate inst working on initial boot up, reboot fixes that

2. the audio is low, much lower than stock for the external speakers, this has been an issue on all 3 roms so far

This rom does see my SD Card unlike the others and i also have no issue with 5gnz wifi like i did with the other, only thing so far that needs a teak is speaker volume, otherwise its all good thanks :)

nycjbr was able to fix the auto-rotate on first boot issue (and other rotation issues) by switching out the sensors.msm8960.so file, might help here? I've no idea what might be different between the file he posted and the one you include.

I'll definitely be switching over once the speaker level issue is sorted out. Thanks for your work!

By stock Android you mean AOSP/GPE, correct? What is the kernel based off - stock lg, AOSP?

Yes AOSP same kernel as cmb

do i need to be rooted for me to install this? I haven't rooted my stuff in a long time, so i've forgotten much of xda related stuff. would this install also void my warranty?

Yeah and custom recovery, rooting is super simple, twrp is some and commands, nothing daunting, as for warranty... most companies frown upon modifying your device, if you had a warranty issue there is a good guide on here how.to get back to stock that's quite simple

I tried flashing this file in TWRP and it failed. It just went to a screen with a picture of a dead android.

I'm assuming that the install crapped out because I don't have the latest version of TWRP? If this is the case, is there a flashable zip of it somewhere?


Thanks.

You didn't factory reset before flashing, I know this as I did it 1st time, you need to go look in the twrp thread and do the button combo to bring up the reset screen, at that point you can adb reboot recovery, wipe (factory restore) then flash the rom, then flash the gapps

This is the post, download mode is what you need to get into

it will work!
you need to put your tablet in download mode first

(this can be a lil tricky)

with your usb unplugged power down your tab hold the power button in till it shuts off
then release it the quickly push both volume up and down then quickly plug in your usb cable
that will put it into download mode

and just follow the instructions in that thread
Also in the general forum you will find a way to recover back to stock that's very easy
