ZV9 only or could this also apply to the new ZVA? Thanks

I know this is too much to ask can you make a tutorial on how to debloat system.img or add an app to the /system folder? Id like to replace my launcher with nova launcher.

As soon as a ZVA tot gets leaked/uploaded, i will be doing the UltraPOP ZVA (and AOSPish). However, i'm not seeing a lot of people jumping on this new way of flashing due having to unplug the TOT upgrade in the middle of writing to their phone at 9% just to have access (if the LAF/Recovery get corrupted at all, it could leave a brick). The demand for the G4 ROMS are already getting low due to the ZVA MM update running so well and with the ability to disable most of the bloat and being able to tether by downgrade/upgrade hack with the screen pinning, not much demand. Though the thing i always miss most on the ZVA unrooted is the audio tweaks i had done and the init.d script tweaks.

Also, Kudos to the OP for being the first to have another ROM for the Sprint G4. Well done!

Cant you build the system.img from the source and flash it?

you can still add your init.d code by put it in init.qcom.post_boot.sh in etc like this : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Byybyd_nA78MVWRvblNTYjUzV3c/view?usp=sharing

We need the tot to put all of the other booting partitions in order plus the Kernel for ZVA before we can just add a ZVA system image. Hence the ZVA TOT would do that.

Oh, i could make all the changes, i'm well versed, i just wanted to wait until the ZVA drops so i don't have to do it a second time (assuming the ZVA will be leaked as usual). I have a lot of time in all the changes i put into the UltraPOP series and the init.d tweaks will have to be redone due to them fixing the issues i had on Lollipop Kernel, now mostly fixed in Marshmallow.

Nevermind i had to add fast.tmobile apn.

Just, FYI, if you do actually pull the plug at 9% it doesn't write anything. All it does is open the port. I'm working on pulling the system.img from ZVA. I tried, but forgot my phone is encrypted so it didn't work. I'm decrypting my phone then pulling the system.img.

 

[Asiangamers]

what sup.. can i flash this on ZVA? or i have to downgrade? also yes is there how to downgrade? sorry im new in this phone lol just got the phone...from warranty

Update: While it is true if you pull the plug at exactly the correct time, you will cause no harm, YOU WILL BRICK your phone if you do it 1 second too late. Bricked mine on Friday. Still was on 9%, but it was a few seconds too late, and it began to write. HARD BRICK. Obviously, I got a replacement, but just so everyone is warned. BE CAREFUL.

Yep, i had bricked mine this weekend before i got back on here. Just a little too late pulling the cord. LOL it's funny how i warned everyone else, but ended up bricking my own.
My phone had to go back to LG for the warranty motherboard replacement anyway, but unfortunately i am using, go ahead and laugh, my HTC Hero 3G. I have installed AOSP 2.2.1 with OC kernel to 768 mhz (single core, 540 mhz stock!). It was the first android on Sprint, originally had v1.5.

I miss the G4, but the locked BL is killing me, i might have to dump LG after this one and start going to a true GooglePhone.

NOOOOOO! Wow, that sucks bro. You didn't have Sprint TEP to just have it swapped out in a store?
I feel the same way about LG. I used to love them. Their phones are GREAT, except the fact they are locked down so hard. People are even rooting Samsung phones easier than LG now. I think I'm going Nexus on my next phone as well.
