Inspire 4G and the cyanogenmod (questions)

Im new to the android community and phones. I bought an Inspire with gingerbread (2.3.3) and would like to add cyanogenmod to it but the tutorials look so "harmfull" they scare me away so i have some question.
Can i downgrade from 2.3 to android v1?
Have anyone here rooted and flashed the same phone I have?
What is "radio? Can I change it to another one? how can I tell if it will work with my carrier?

please, please, please. READ
these questions you are asking concern me
1. you dont downgrade to v1....because it doesnt exist
2. we all have the same phone as you, otherwise we wouldnt have an inspire section
3. there is an entire thread dedicated to this very subject....look in the dev section.
there are easy to follow guides, tutorials, and walkthroughs here, but you have to READ...there is ZERO excuse for not reading and comprehending this stuff. if it is too much for you, you should NOT be doing any of it, and leave your phone stock

This is why I said..im NEW with this... none of what you helped in some way.

then you have some READING to do. nobody here is going to hold your hand.
ALL the information you seek is already here, but you have to READ
Sorry if all you want is someone to hold your hand and spoonfeed information to you
NEW or not, it doesnt matter. I was NEW to this phone when i got it. I READ, the same way i have done with all my other phones. I READ to understand what i am doing and how to do it.
heres the first thing you should have read when you came to the inspire boards:

this question has come up several times in the last month. yes it works just fine

Hi, i just rotted the unit and everything was fine
So i decided to use, cyanogenmod, it installed
now i can make calls but it does not connect to the data network portion.
Any ideas?
I noticed the radio baseband is slighly different than the original. could it be?

Sorry. was quick. i entered the APN settings and it is now connecting.. just Edge....before (stock rom) i had "H" (guessing is 3G). Now it only connects to E (edge i assume).
The weird thing is that before whenever i was in an area with only edge It would not allow me to browse but now I can.
any idea jedi master?

you can try a different radio. look at the radio thread in the dev section

Sorry to bother you so much. I was able to solve the radio issue. Now, since the market app wasn't included i followed the guide on how to install gapps but after doing so i can't get pass the boot screen "touch the android to begin".
I try to wipe and reflash but still does not let me do it. Any ideas?

did you touch the android to begin?

Yes, sir. But it will still restart.
i try to wipe data and restart the process but same thing happens.
Tried taping the four corners and an still happening.
Someone said the the gapps file might be corrupted.
Right now cyanogenmod is a pain. is there a way to install another room or the stock one through recovery?
Thanks for all your help!

you can install any rom you like in recovery.
boot into recovery
go to mounts and storage
mount usb storage
on your computer, copy the rom zip onto the phone
back,
install zip file from sdcard
browse to rom zip
confirm flash

Thank you. I am downloading RUU_Ace_Gingerbread_S_Cingular_US_2.47.502.7_Radio_12.56.60.25_26.10.04.03_M_release_200368_signed.exe.... is this the correct stock?
Does it have to be on ZIP? if so, where can i find stock roms?

no. this will leave you an unrooted stock rom
why dont you browse the dev forum here and look at all the ROM offerings?

I think i will just go with the stock one and the do the same procedure (using the hack kit and just leave it stock rooted....
would that be ok?

[Q] installing Froyo camera on G2X running Gingerbread

First, before shaming me over a question that surely has been answered somewhere (yeah, I saw the scary intro video ), let me just say that:
I read the camera thread (no, not all 100+ pages) but couldn't find the answer.
I tried to post on that thread but wasn't allowed because of my noob status.
I'm an Android developer, so you don't have to hold my hand.
I'll gladly read the instructions, if only I can find them.
So... I have a G2X that I've upgraded to Android 2.3.3 using LG's tool. Like everyone in the world, I hate the new Gingerbread camera. Well, not so much hate---it's just that the photos and videos are unusable.
So I found on the camera thread that some wonderful person(s) have made available the camera from the Froyo version. I downloaded the LGCam V3.0.zip file and unzipped it. But I'd like to know:
Do I just install the apk like any other android app?
What do I do with the library and XML files? Do I just throw them in some special Android directory? Or do I leave them in the same directory as the apk? Or do I put them elsewhere?
Once I install this apk, can I uninstall it and go back to the camera I have now?
What are all those other files (e.g. Stock_Gingerbread_Camera.zip) on that thread? Are they merely earlier versions, or are they alternate camera builds from other developers?
I'm sorry I couldn't find this information. But I couldn't. If you'd point me to this information, I'd appreciate it---and if I succeed I'll even write a blog entry about it to make this easier for others. Thank you!!

You don't have to unzip it, just flash the .zip it through recovery. You can leave the .zip on the root of your SD and just.flash it through there. The Stock Gingerbread Camera .zip is the camera you have now, so you can revert. Also, you might want to try Jboxer's 2.3.4 ROM, it has the LG Camera pre-installed.

Ah---I'm inferring from your reply that I have to have a custom ROM and/or root the thing? (Although I'm an Android developer, I've been hesitant to root this phone as I'm stuck if something goes haywire.)

You can root your phone and still keep your apps. If you follow this guide, and then flash WeaponG2x, you'll be fine since Weapon G2x is based on the same 2.3.3 firmware. At that point, you should be able to flash the LG Camera in recovery by holding power+volume down.

You can flash Weapon without factory reset since it's based on 2.3.3? File this under "things I wish I knew last night"

Oh, that would be awesome. So these xda-developers.com threads... you know, I'm used to someone creating and updating single page. (Sorry for whining.) Can I just read the first page of these posts you mentioned and follow the directions? Or do I have to read all 50+ and 100+ pages, respectively, and note all the small details in some obscure reply that might modify the instructions, or indicate something has been updated, etc., and note that e.g. page 83 changed the instructions mentioned in page 40, which changed the instructions on page 1, except that page 90 told how the instructions on page 40 were wrong...? How does this work?

I'm pretty new here but they seem to update the versions with instructions in the first post. If you want commentary on a version you will probably have to look for posts in the time frame it was released.

got WeaponG2x---next steps?
OK, I'm almost there, but...
I installed ClockworkMod. Am I rooted now? (I downloaded Titanium Backup but couldn't find out how to start it---the "refund" button was all that was available, so I requested a refund.)
If I flash the LG Camera using the power+volume down combination, why did I need WeaponG2x? Couldn't I have just flash the new camera using ClockworkMod?
Now that I have ClockworkMod installed, will this make my phone less secure? Before, you had to enter a password to get into my phone. Now if someone steals my phone, can't they just boot into ClockworkMod without a password?
Most important of all, the camera: the Weapon G2x 3.0_R1 page says "LG Cam v3.0". So did I get the LG Cam v3.0 just by installing WeaponG2x? Or do I still have to flash it? (See point #2 above.)
Thanks for all the help so far.
P.S With WeaponG2x, I hope I don't have to reboot my phone at security in the airport---the last thing I need is a huge "weapon" sign...)

You don't have root yet, but since Weapon is a rooted ROM, you'll have root access for Titanium Backup and other things. You don't have to flash Weapon, but it's extra features are great. If you don't want the extra features, look up Xboarder's tweaked 2.3.3 ROM. LG Camera 3.0 works with Weapon and Xboarder's.
Also, the last part was funny

And concerning ClockworkMod and security, there's no option for passwords, unfortunately. But you still need a password to use the actual Android OS itself.

success!
After flashing WeaponG2x, I realized others had the same question of "where is the Gingerbread camera when it is listed in the WeaponG2x features?" Turns out it was removed in a later build and you have to install it yourself---in fact a link is listed on the main page.
So I installed the LG Cam V3.0 for WeaponG2x, and it works! My phone still seems to function, I didn't have to reinstall my apps, and I still get the T-Mobile WiFi calling! Whew! Half the morning just to get a new camera, but... it was worth it!
I really appreciate everyone who helped me on this thread. None of this is particularly difficult, but if one isn't involved in the rooting/ROM community, it's not entirely obvious where to start... or even what you need. Turns out I didn't even need WeaponG2x, it seems, but... I guess I'm better off, now... Thanks!

I was under the impression that I needed WeaponG2x---now that I know, I probably wouldn't have bothered my stock ROM and just used ClockworkMod to get the new camera. But now that I have WeaponG2x, can you help my buyer's remorse---what is the Xboarder, and the WeaponG2x ROM is better, right? Right? I'd hate to have to flash another ROM just because I think I flashed an inferior one. What's the best ROM I can get for G2X 2.3.3 without resetting and reinstalling everything? Cheers!

Weapon is superior because it has more features, but some people like pure stock like Xboarder's ROM, so Weapon was a good choice.
Good to know everything worked out okay

Yeah, but no joke---now every time I whip out my phone on a long flight and turn it on to listen to music (in airplane mode, of course), I'm going to have to hide it into my pocket until it boots up. Otherwise, can you imagine the commotion when the person next to me sees this huge, bright "WEAPON!!!" sign? Arg!

FYI, the LG camera that you can flash to gingerbread works great *except* that it is not Skype video chat compatible. If this has changed, someone let me know. Since I use Skype video chat with the front facing camera for work (and to see my little girl when I am away) this was a deal breaker for me. I was using Xboarder's ROM with the stock camera.
Tsugi G2x has a flashable LG camera that does work with Skype video chat. I think JBoxer's ROM may as well.

[Q] Any guides for stock Rom on LG p720h?

Hi there, just got a brand new LG Optimus 3D Max (p720h) and was lurking around to find out if I can remove my carrier's customs. I learned to root my device and uninstall some customizations using various tools around the market and forums like this.
I'm still struggling with some customizations like for example the boot image and categories within the app list, I think all my problems would be solved if I used a stock ROM, problem is that I can't find really any good guides for this device, I was able to find something on p920 but I'm not sure that would work:
tool here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=27004883
KDZ here: http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=10 (very sloooow download)
So I want to know if I could use those tools and kdz files I found or if there's another specific guide for my device.
Offtopic questions:
1. I heard Icecream Sandwich upgrade is planned for my device, is that true? Any news on that?
2. Would p920 cases fit my p720? Specifically talking about those wallet-like cases.

So ... you have a long way to go. Rooting is the most easy thing in the whole work.
So... JB/CM -> not 3D view
To go to ICS... you should first install over computer in KDZ or Bin/FLS file the ICS system - I am almost sure that you will brick your phone 1-2 times - so it is better to read careful what is written in the manuals. Basically you should go from your V20p to V28B or V30a/b/c via LGFlashtools or SmartFlash(good change to loose you IMEI - so look for how to repair my IMEI cos you will not have signal). Then you should install open bootloarer (there is a tools) cos most of the Kernels work only in open one. Then you can install custom roms... well... they are all Rooted so you should not care about that.
As drastic00 said - read the developer section and all about resurrection guides.

Why not update to ICS through the LG update tool LG released the update a while ago now..
Sent from my LG-P920 using xda app-developers app

You could try it but LG updater tool has been bricking phones left and right. Better to install ICS by LG Flash tool.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2195753
Then you can install p-vlad's custom ROM or xbsall's or whatever ROM you want, or stay on stock ICS.

Mine worked perfectly, in fact it unbricked my locked GB after I messed around with the kernel. And updated it ICS perfectly. Big performance improvement, I can run games I wouldnt expect a mid 2011 (mid range phone) to run. It's given it a whole new life that the GB roms never could and even xbsalls and other ICS+ roms felt sluggish compared to it.

LG G3 Keyboard for CM/AOSP ROMs

Hi everyone,
I've been using non-stock ROMs for quite a while and I was always flashing LG keyboards, cause I find them really handy to use.
I had asked in the Official CM13's thread, if anyone had known a compatible LG keyboard, but no one had answered.
After some search, I found this thread, and after flashing the keyboard I found out that it works flawlessly with CM13 (latest nightly) for my G2, too. Of course I take no responsibility for any kind of problem that might occur during/after flashing the .zip, as I said it works just fine with my G2.
All credits should be given to @siankatabg who made the .zip, all I did was just search G3's forum and test if it works.
Hope this helped anyone looking to flash a LG keyboard to his/her CM13 based ROM. If the thread is against the rules, I'd like to apologize in advance, and mods, feel free to delete it.

It works on g2 too, that's nice, but should work on other cm/aosp roms.
Can you please change the title when someone report that the Keyboard works on other roms than cm13, so I don't need to make a new thread here

Done. Thank you for your work!

well... If you already have TWRP installed, do a nandroid backup and if anything goes wrong just recover form it, there is no way that just flashing this will brick your phone beyond recovery point, and even if in some way recovery got corrupted there's always a way, you can just run download mode and flash KDZ with stock rom using flash tool 2014. Anyway I went ahead and tried it myself on Lineage 14.1 ( Android 7.1.1.) and it doesn't work, I mean i did flash it and it seems that everything went well but after reboot it just wasn't there. You better off with Google Keyboard (you can get it at google play store)
BTW. The easiest way to get TWRP on LG G2 is just flash stock lollipop root it, and than flash "Autorec for lollipop", when it's done just go to recovery and flash newest TWRP available and you're golden.

Flashed the file in language and inputs in settings lg keyboard shows up but I enable it reboot still have aosp keyboard tried disabling aosp keyboard and lg gets automativmcally blacked out with it any help appreciated!!!
