I had to send to phone in due to charger plug went bad, replaced for free. Yea. But now I am on 4.4.2 from Verizon. I rooted using Towelroot, awesome BTW and easy. Installed Xposed and Gravity Box since there is no too install custom ROM's yet(Slim was my go to). Now to my question. Where are user profiles? I thought this was made available on 4.2 or 4.3 but since I have used nothing but custom Roms up until now I don't know for sure. Does the Samsumg version on 4.4.2 remove this feature? I have been playing with Gravity Box to customize the look but quicksetting still appears to have the TW look, I forgot how ugly it is. I am assuming it's a Verizon thing but don't know if I'm just missing something. I don't see user profile in any the phone setting.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks

I believe multi user profiles is only available with tablet. You need to install an multi user profiles apk in order to see the feature.

Above image is more of what I want.
Bottom image is what 4.4.2 on verizon gives me
As buhohitr advised, you'll need a ROM or available .zip installer that has multiple users as a feature. To my knowledge the HyperDrive ROM supports this on the tablet, but I have a VZW GS3 and have tried multiple ROMs on it. I haven't seen multiple profiles at this point.
Thank you both for your help. Miss flashing. Most of the Roms I have used have had that feature, Slimkat, hellfire, and SOKP

Hey guys,
I am pretty bored of my stock 4.2.2 now and want to take the leap to 4.4.x What is the most stable ROM you guys have found here so far? I understand that there is no "best".
I am looking for the
largest battery backup
stability
something that looks clean/minimal/flat.
Also, in case there is no absolutely stable ROM available, what is the best Xposed Module(s) etc that can help me change the look of my stock 4.2.2 to that of 4.4.x/Android L?
That translucent status bar with those icons and translucent navbar looks sexy as hell. Any ideas?

Well even though you said you knew best of wasn't allowed you still asked it at the end... Reading and learning which is best is the best way to go about this. Closed
I own this thing pictured below this message..
It, and other adapters like it work with a cheezy, sketchy, chinese app that allow you to browse files on the sd card. The OS will not read the card natively. I refuse to use the app. Bleh.
When I was on Stock, rooted, it wouldn't mount the card. I figured it didn't work with the N5 natively.
I eventually switched to SlimKat and it supported this adapter (and likely others like it) easily. Plug it in, the sd card would show up in any file manager.
Then I switched to Rastapop, not supported. I'm going to Catalysm as soon as the next build is stable. I have a feeling I can do or flash something to make this just work on any rom. I've tried different kernels after reading that it was a kernel thing. No help.
What gives?

Things I don't want to do, and that weren't needed on SlimKat:
• Will not instal crappy apps that allow me to view the contents, i want to use any file manager, particularly Solid Explorer
• Will not install StickMount - tried it, not a fan, I want native support
• Will not install "Nexus Media Importer" app
1- cataclysm is stable

Thanks for the reply. I'm actually flashing Cataclysm today. Do you know if it also worked before you switched over to hells kernel? I never even heard of hells. Why'd you choose it?
Just wondering if anyone has ever tried Myarom before. Its actually a 920C ported rom for 910F… I wanna say. I kinda like it. The customizing, plus one of the few Note 4 roms that isn't a big battery drainer on my Note Edge 915T. Oh and I like how it doesn't break easily if you start flashing mods… launcher animations, boot anime, xposed, etc…. Compared to a few other roms where where I'll flash one mod and all hell breaks. Then back to reflashing rom lol. So this a spanish rom… me think (Spain).
Incase anyone is wondering, i did clean install, flashed R23 emotion F (yes not T, T is broken or something, my 915T dont like, dont start), then i might have flashed SuperSU 64… ..forget. OH! AND dont forget datafix for your version. I used Datfix 1.0

Where can I find this datafix I keep hearing about it
Just install it but I loose the IMEI, so no network at all.
Needed to go back to a stock nandroid backup to recover IMEI, is there any way you can post links to which rom, Data fix and kernel you used?

Thanks a lot !!!

I think cyanogenmod is better ROM
Apologies for posting here but there is no forum for the LG Wine Smart (D486). Mine currently has stock 4.4.2 KitKat. Aw remember that? LG update app no longer functions correctly as it was shut down in 2020.
Is there any way to update this to 5 or preferably 6? There is an app I need that isn't compatible with Android 4.
You have to find
1. A Custom ROM suitable to phone ( specs: 1 GB RAM, 4 GB max storage )
2. If found, a Custom Recovery suitable to phone to flash the Custom ROM found
Many thanks. Sorry for the questions but if you were me, where would you look first?
Alternatively I wanted to make it clear that this phone officially shipped with Android 5.1 later in its life. I just happen to have an earlier 4.4.2 version. Where might I find the official 5.1 ROM and flash it?
Edit: I have found some options that I will try at http://lg-roms.com/lg-firmware/lg-h410/h41010d/2879
I'm not having any luck @jwoegerbauer . It turns out 4.4.2 was the latest official ROM for this phone.
Would you be able to assist a little? If you were me, where would you look first (as in URLs) to get a custom Android 6 ROM and recovery?
I'd like to update to Android 6 or higher. All the apps I want to install require Android 6+.
I'd just need to make sure it can recognise input from the LG Wine Smart D486 keypad.

Can I say both?
I have exhausted every root method that might work for the LG486 and nothing works properly. The most I can get is super user appearing in the app list but not properly installed. It wasn’t a very common phone so it’s understandable that there is no working route.
My end goal is to edit edit build.prop, so that android 4.4.2 appears to apps to be android 6.0. I need to install a certain app on the phone.
All the options found via Google for root either do not work or lead to broken file links. I have also tried Universal options like Kingo Root and Androot but they don't work at all.
Is there any universal root that I could try which is supposed to work with any phone?
Or is anybody able to help me route this phone? I’m happy to pay for assistance. Thanks.
Simply editing build.prop doesn't help, IMO, because the files that make the Android OS ( read: libraries ) mostly changes from SDK version to SDK version, means apps compiled for Android 4.4.4 may not working properly on 4.4.4 onwards, and reverse.
Probably won't... but might. I'm open to other solutions if you have any.

This oldie might work for rooting it...

Probably some pop ups will emerge if you fake that Android version...
And that app you wanted to change probably has some reason why it needs be that 6+ ...

Unfortunately this only half worked on the LG D486 (Wine Smart).
SU is installed but reports "There is no SU binary installed"... and RootChecker confirms not fully rooted. I can't edit root items such as build.prop.
However on the download boot screen, it did say in small red text, "ROOTED" ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Is anyone able to help fully root the LG D486?

Okay, you tested it already... maybe you should try it by hand then...
To see what's happening... lglaf.py might work if send_command.exe doesn't...
