That's right, I forgot about the SD card. The V4A will require the root access, but Dolby Atom possibly supports. I planned to try this soon.

In Thailand, the operator did not support many models. I tried on v10e HK whick works for people in India, but no luck in Thailand. Therefore, there is no plan on volte.
Thanks.. Hope Dolby will be added soon..

Thanks to @jskasia for his help, I will soon create a thread for my modification of v20h. It'll look completely stock, only LG's stock font Foxrain will be replaced with Roboto Condensed, which is one of my favorites, and there will be Dual Window for all apps. I have only worked on performance and heat reduction and reached a quite agreeable point.The phone now has a stable and smooth performance and the amount of the heat it produces has been significantly reduced. I checked this after ~1 hour of gaming.

The ROM will also support 60fps FHD video recording, and photo capture quality will be increased to 100%.

@jskasia, C2D, which is set by default on all stock images, is "Core 2 Duo" screen rendering, which is a collaboration of the CPU and the GPU, with more emphasis on the latter. GPU is obvious. But as per MDP, it appears to depend on hardware support, which happily the G4 does. It probably puts less pressure on the CPU, so it doesn't heat up, and hence doesn't reach high thresholds, and this way, it won't decrease in frequency.

Oh, and why do you call my mod "the great combination?" :D I'd rather call it "Pyrophag," meaning Fire Eater, the name I'm gonna put on my ROM.

BTW, you had asked about the camera config files I posted earlier; if you replace them with the stock ones, you'll get what I just described above. I looked into the 60fps camera mod that requires root to see what it actually does, and I did that to the stock files without removing Slow Motion recording mode, which that mod does.

Nice to know that you'll start your thread soon! Good luck with that! BTW, on your rom, can you have a 540 dpi variant? Thanks in advance! :good:

I changed the name to Pyrophag.

You mean mdpv4. Do you have some links for further research, thanks.

One more quick question, what is the benefit of getting camera working at 60 fps, I rarely take the video though.

Thank you!

Unfortunately, I couldn't find more information on it.

Videos recorded at 60fps are twice as smooth as those that the G4 records normally. It is a huge change. You'll have to see it for yourself.

Can the center clock be implemented again? I really like that mod. Thanks in advance.
Btw, is the AOSP icons only applied to certain icons? Excluding data/signal?
Sorry, center clock is not my favor, it obviously does not match on the lock screen.

In fact, I am not a kind of people who care so much about the appearance, the reason why I love Genisys theme is its white background. This can help me reduce the effects of screen ghosting. Unlike the dark background of stock theme which can be seen the screen retention very clearly such as the ghost icons on the notification panel.

Regarding the mod, would you mind do it yourself ? It is not that hard, and I would be happy to help if you could do that.
This could benefit other folks to make their own style too.

Hi. Thanks for the reply. I am more than happy to do the modding myself, if I have the resources to do so. Right now I don't have any other computer to install VM to have linux. If I have, I would have modded things and share them, like I did with Optimus G and G pro community way back when. I appreciate your work more than anything in G4 community, considering that we don't have unlocked BL and Root.

I am just asking if the AOSP icons are only applied on some icons, and not on all notification icons?

I also love Genisys white background, as I already have the screen ghosting. :(

Performance mod is more important than aesthetics, so thanks for the great mod! :good:

I didn't know how many AOSP icons were patched actually. I put it all from the package. I didn't examine that close on each icon, The noticable change are just the phone and wifi signal.

Please let me know when you're ready.

For changing icons you only need the following:
- Virtual box for windows
- Linux, Ubuntu 16.04 32 bit is recommended
- Android build-tool + java jdk 7 (we need zipalign, if you have it working on Windows, you don't need this)
-icon files you wanted (located in the correct directory structure such as /res/drawable-xxxhdpi/)

Nice! Gonna start as soon as I get a new PC. Recommended Hardware?
