LG G3 development: alive or dead? - G3 General

I ask this because I cant seem to find any relevant Info regarding updating the software of the device.
I'm looking for the image of the latest stock build with as little as possible modification (obviously except pre-rooting & built-in TWRP) ready for flashing with recovery is there any hope that such a thing?

Maybe you should try reading "LG G3 General", "LG G3 Android Development" and "LG G3 Original Android Development" forums. There are dozens of threads and post about that, the info you asked for is on their's first page... This thread, for example.
In short: no, nobody yet made a prerooted kdz. If by "image" you meant "a flashable zip", then yes, head to robalm's thread.

First link exactly what I was looking for thanks!
P.s
I looked in said forums didn't had any luck finding...

[Q] ROMs - Selection and Other Questions

Hi Guys,
I've got a stock A500 and due to the conflicting reports as to whether Acer will provide an OTA update to Jellybean, I've decided to flash a custom ROM as there as some minor quirks that are starting to bug me.
Anyway, I've found the thread to explain what to do - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1205204 - but it's left me with a couple of questions.
Selection of ROM
I can see at http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1136 there are links to various threads relating to custom ROMs such as CM10 Jellybean, AOKP Jellybean and CM10 Jellytime etc.
1) These have other topics scattered throughout so I was wondering if there's a page that summarises the various JB ROMs out there with a link to their topic page?
2) Without knowing each of the developers, how does one choose which ROM to use? Is there such a thing as a "vanilla/Plain-Jane" JB ROM?
3) Each of these topics have the first post outlining the ROM with a link to the zip file. Does the author update this link in the 1st post if there's update to the ROM or do you need to read through all the posts to see if the author has an updated link?
4) Once you've installed a custom ROM, how do you know if there's updates? Does the Update in Settings work or do you need to manually come back to the topic and see if the zip file is updated?
ROM/Kernel
At http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1205204 it says that you need
external SD card, root rights, unlocked bootloader (if you're on stock ICS), custom recovery and a custom ROM of your choice.

Yet further down it talks about Custom ROMs and Custom Kernels.
1) What are the differences?
2) What does a Kernel do?
3) Do I need this or just the ROM?
Thanks
PS - Not sure if this topic is better suited to be in http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1136, but since it's a question, the rules say that it should go in the Q&A section.

what is the problem porting GPE ROM to V500?

I don't get the point, both gpad have the same hardware, why GPE Rom don't match stock gpad?
GPE ROM work on galaxy s4 and htc one x)

it's just said that it should work, but i can't understand what is the problem because i didn't find it. ( And of course i did followed the thread the last couple of days). I'm just curious to know.
sorry to bother you
something with lg locked bootloader. you can run a custom rom. madhi-rom is like having GPE edition.
it's not possible to flash LG v510 bootloader on v500?
Really? We need a thread discussing what is already the subject of, and being discussed in another thread?
Thread closed, this is already being discussed. We'll keep this in one place for now

[Q] Just a few questions!

Hi fellow G2 users!
Got my G2 a few days ago (I know I'm about a year late) but this phone seems awesome. Model is D802.
I did a lot of reading before doing anything and so far - I am on stock LG rom, rooted, installed TWRP with autorec, flashed a volume mod and installed xposed with g2 tweaksbox. So far I have nothing to complain about.
Anyway, now come the questions - my previous phone was a sensation, and to have that fully ready to flash, it required unlocking the bootloader, S-OFF, radio flashing and root.
1. Is there anything else I need to do here? This is my main question. I did a lot of reading before posting this or doing anything to my phone. I only do something once Im completely sure I know how.
2. I've read about flashing modems of some sort and came across this link - xda wont let me post links for the 1st 10 posts... Its a site like codefi.re/autoprime
Can someone please tell me what the 4 different versions of the D802 files are?
3. Any recommended ROMS/kernels that are absolutely brilliant? I know that all devs make great roms but with specifically battery life, STABILITY, and all the LG features (like knock on and the new message reply box thing and quickmemo, etc) I have heard a lot about Pardus. Might try that out soon if I dont get any other recommendations.
4. I read about Jishnu's camera mod. The links have been deleted from his thread. Is it okay to ask if anyone has a backup? I would like to try it if possible.
5. I read about Viper Sound Mod. Is there an updated method of installing this on stock rom? The thread I found seemed outdated and half the links were invalid
Nobody?
Depends on what you want. Have you researched aosp roms? All the things you looked up are fine. Tweaks for a ton will help enrich its use but to change to a complete different operating system is what you should try out if you want to see something different. Modems usually come with the rom. Make sure you flash the correct variant for your device.

How to root an original H870 "pie"?

Hi,
after updating through LG program, now I have an original PIE branded rom, but have no twrp nor root.
I'm searching for a guide to install twrp and root to an original and clean pie rom, but I find only old guides.

Hello!
Why did you not look at the guides section of this forum before asking - that's BASIC forum etiquette!
Please do that, there's a pinned (!) guide for unlocking the bootloader and installing twrp, so you don't even have to search.
So next time please do search and not just claim to do so (searching requires actual looking) and don't start another useless thread.
Regards
PS if you're absolutely clueless, ask in the noob friendly thread (again, pinned).

I already looked to that guides, infact I used them to install twrp and root when I was on nougat or oreo, because they are guides that were created in nougat or oreo times or, best, they clearly state for what version they're right. But reguarding android pie I have not found anything by "date" or by "clear reference to pie"... Have I been clear?

Nothing has changed, it still works, as I myself can confirm (just did it last week, when camera started freezing on me, going back from an Android 10 ROM - flashed stock Oreo via lgup, upgraded, installed twrp via fastboot, rooted, np).
But to reiterate... Why exactly didn't you ask in the corresponding thread? Sorry, but I'm a stickler for uncluttered forums.

Changing the ROM where to start?

My guarantee on my phone has run out. I have a Galaxy S10+ exynos with one ui 4.1. Where can I start to change the rom and root my phone? Can you recommend me an up to date and safe guide?
Google could have done all of this for you.

Do you know how many results you will get if you ask google? Not all of them will be valid or up-to-date and it's hard to pick one.
I really don't understand what you're saying. I rooted my first phone thanks to articles on google. They usually don't even have to be up to date. Plus your phone is relavitely new compared to what I had.
Anyways, first look for a guide to unlock your bootloader, that's the first step.
Next, learn how to flash twrp onto your device.
Lastly learn how to flash custom roms onto your device via twrp. Custom roms can be found in your device's dev forum here on xda.
You'll need a pc, the right drivers, minimal adb and fastboot (or odin), and the required files (twrp, custom rom, gapps)
Also, you've posted this into the wrong subforum. This subforum is for rom development, it's where devs post roms. If you want to ask a question or need help then ask in the Q/A subforum.
