LG Optimus G Port Possible?

Is it possible to port LG's custom UI to the Nexus 4 after the LGOG after it receives an update to 4.2? (this is just a a question, so please don't flame about why stock Android is better)

It is probably possible. It is probably even possible to port the LGOG's rom to the Nexus 4 right now even though it is ICS. To my knowledge capable of running ICS means capable of running JB.
But like you said, most people that have this phone are Android purists. And more importantly, the developers would more than likely be Android purists.

I would only port the battery and power management options from the optimus G (AKA ECO Mode). That would be worth the time and the effort.

why would you want to ruin your phone? the whole reason for a nexus is for a pure Google experience. if you like the LG UI then get an Optimus G

Reliant on the LG Optimus G getting a 4.2 update? Resurrect this project in 2014 then

I assume you don't even read the body of the post. Besides, the Nexus 4 is a lot cheaper for the same hardware and the ability to load a variety of roms is a plus, even if I choose to load an LG UI rom.

Active G2 Development?

How long do you think it will be until there are ROMs for the LG G2 on Verizon and the other carriers?
It is a little disheartening that there is hardly anything going on with this phone. One would think that the fastest smartphone in the world would get more attention than this.
Anyway, I am going to root tonight so that'll do for now. I'm really looking forward to AOSP and Cyanogenmod for the G2.
This is the best phone by far that I have ever owned! I've had all the latest and greatest since Android came out. LG really did a great job with the user interface too. I couldn't be happier!

Bootloader needs to be unlocked before anything else.
Plus wrong section.

Man, you gotta chill out. The phones been out a week. Were lucky to even have root! With locked bootloaders, its going to take some time before anything happens, IF anything happens with it at all. The proper people are working on the issue.
Breath.
Relax.
Drink a beer.
Given time, roms will come. Use and abuse your phone until that point.

If you really think the interface is great and couldn't be happier, why the rush on new roms? I'm rather content at the moment, myself, but that might change when LG starts lagging with their android updates.

I agree, I'm pretty cool with the phone for now. But if you're impatient like myself, go ahead and root and remove bloatware, and see how close you can come to stock through that. I was able to get 50+ hours of battery time on my LG G2 ending today through a bunch of tweaks, so that was exciting! :good: :laugh:

Guys, please take this to the general or Q&A section, you are making me excited about someone releasing something and it is just this chatter, it looks like someone has posted when I come here and I see this conversation, OP, please a ask mod to move your lively thread, Thanks.

Are you able to remove the quick toggles in the status bar through "bloatware removal"? I know a lot of the status bar stuff is part of system, but was thinking maybe removing a few .apk's will get rid of some of it.

The bootloader doesn't necessarily have to be unlocked to flash custom roms just FYI...

I know. I'm sick of people constantly saying that. you can have an exploit to flash with a locked bootloader... cough galaxy s4 cough.

Exactly. If people would stop bashing other phones and actually read development on other devices, it'd be a better understanding of what's going on or has already been going on.

Right, like they have a workarounds for the s4 using bootstrap right? People have been flashing custom roms (just not on MF3, from what I know) So since this has root, will we be able to flash by the same method once it and a few roms are available? I mean the phones awesome now and I'm in no rush but it'd b nice to know

Yeah and before that we had Loki and the boot loader wasn't and still isn't unlocked. It'll probably be a similar exploit but idk. I just know it's possible from having an S4 and I had a G Pro too

What roms is yall rocking?

trying to decide which rom to use, itll be my first EVER! .. what yall using? what yall like about its. i have an att version rooted. thanks! so far leaning towards power user edition rom, feel like clean rom is what i have already cause i debloated a bit or is there more to it than that?

Sorry but you must have got confused which forum you're on. This isn't the Galaxy s4 forum.
Sent from my LG-D801 using xda app-developers app

What indicates that he was looking for an S4 forum? Both roms he mention are G2.

i wouldnt think theres much of a difference in the roms except some mods which you can add on yourself thru stock rom
These roms are early builds and dont contain much, im staying on stock for now.

[Q] An hope for a Gpe Rom Port?

Whats going on dev Community! i was just wondering if any devs is interested in building a port from the nexus 5 to work with the LG G2? I love the LG G2 but i miss the gpe roms from the s4. Is there any way it could be ported?

Okay, considering the G3 rom is causing my G2 problems i need help choosing a new rom! It needs to be reliable, fast and battery friendly. not too fussed about customizing, just something smooth. Thanks!
-edit- Had enough of stock android, Looking for an LG based rom. Thanks.

i was on cloudyG3 for a day or two and i noticed it being quite slow, and facebook messenger kept crashing on calls. OptimusG3 has been really good just i charge the phone twice a day, sometimes even 3 times and it gets really hot

Yeah, I really hope LG considers us G2 users, and push out the update for us to get the G3 UI and the features(minus the laser auto focus, because the G2 doesn't have that hardware) that came with the G3.[emoji4]
It would be wrong on their part if they don't push out this update to us, The LG G2 hasn't even been out for a year yet.

lets hope its this year, the next update on the G2 will be Android L so maybe LG changes the UI yet again slightly due to the notification centre being different on L :laugh:
