Hi, sad to say. There is no development carried out for your device, hence why you were unable to find any custom roms lurking around the internet. Judging by the year model of this device, it is fairly old and let me blast out all the sadness to you.
I highly doubt your device will receive any update.
Same with custom roms, but maybe some dev may get this phone? Idk why.
And may make a custom rom for it.
Sad to say friend, your device is far to outdated to receive ICS or JB or any new Android platform.
Time for you to upgrade if you wish to say in line within the platform standards.

ohh k thanks for the reply well is it not like that i can flash wid any android 2.3.4 custom firmware ? for ex, here are the list
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1196704, is that work ?

No that's not how it works.
If you flash another devices .IMG or ROM to your device it will brick it. Meaning it will no longer be usable.
Better explained, you can't install a Samsung firmware for your device. It won't work.

[Q] Bootloader?..

Hey, guys. I have had rooted gt-9105p for quite a while.
Finaly decided to put on CM11. Noticed that I need to have unlocked bootloader and have it 4.2.2 version. I dont realy know what that is or where can I find it, or how to update/unlock it.
I take it that I probobly have old bootloader. Because other than root I havent done anything to my phone.
And could I have even rooted, if my bootloader was locked?
Would apriciate, if someone could help me with the complite newb tut or help trought skype or anything else. (I can download anything as long as it gets me where I want to be)
Is there anything else I should do before putting CM11?
I dont realy understand anything besides rooting. So would be cool to have someone te explain me karnel, bootloader, roms and stuff. I know that there are all kinda infos. But they just explain one by one thing. They dont actualy tell how those things are conected. Like CM11 has its own karnel but you are supposed to be able to change it by it selfe anyway and stuff.. Like what the hell.
I realy want to learn more about android devices because I want to become an android developer aswell. But other than root i dont realy understand anything. Its not like im complite newb to tech stuff. But its just that i get one problem, then i try to find info about it. I find alot of things that just confuse me even more to the point where I dont understand anything anymore..
So yeah. Please help me with bootloading and other android related stuff. I found that thread where was huge colection with tutorials from newbie to dev levels. And one of first ones was the rom change. But it was for stock to stock rom change. But if i change rom, I would rather change it to CM11 or something that I will actualy use not just like that.
Anyhow, thanks for your time.
Hope someone will be willing to help me.

Thats the thing. I dont know where I can find it.
So I dont know which version it is or is it or isnt locked.

Don't worry, u have open bootloader. I think, there isn't any s2 plus phone with unlocked bootloader.

I would love to say someone is working on this but we are alone, im trying to get linux booted by tonight and we are afloat in a sea of step-by-step guides, and i should be able to do something other than make a brick.

I just got one of these phones and was hoping I could help make some custom recovery/custom rom(s) happen. I must admit my knowledge base is limited but I have access to a linux computer, and I'm not completely new to coding for android or linux. If anyone knows where to start I'd be happy to do anything I can, I'm just looking for marching orders haha.

[Completed] I need a basic rundown of rooting benefits.

I recently bought a Moto X Pure from an XDA Member which should be here at the beginning of next week.
I used to own a GS5 which as you know is pretty locked down. Locked bootloader, hard to root, if you updated you're screwed, ect. So! I've been out of the rooting game for a while now and only really dipped my toes in to begin with.
My question is, can anyone explain the basics and benefits of a rooted device? Specifically, Xposed Framework/Modules, Root detection with Android Pay, and maybe some things that i've gotta try out with a fully unlocked android device. I plan to install an AOSP ROM but im gonna try out stock Moto X first and see how i like it.
Another short question I have regarding Android Pay, i've heard that some root techniques make Android Pay not work, some are fine, some custom ROMs wont work, AOSP roms will, can somebody clarify all this for me?
Thanks guys, you're always helpful. Glad to be back.

Announcement , I will drop the support for LG G7

At first hi to all of you , you might know me I made twrp and the first root and patched stuff to be able to run AOSP , so but lately I came to the conclusion that the g7 is just not a good device for devs , so I unrooted installed stock and relocked my boot loader.
From this point of time any given support for the device by me will be ended and never picked up again.
Im sry but if u like the device and want rom etc you need to do it yourself now

Hi, so sad to read this, but thanks for your great work. Can i ask you why you stop with this awesome phone? What is the main problem?

Sorry to hear those news, J0SH1X. Same question as kimo9hero, what did lead to the decision of yours? (If you allow us asking

@J0SH1X thanks for all your work, but I think we're naive if we consider any recent LG phone "developer friendly" since all their latest models were lacking support even from the company (very late updates).

Guys there is hope that we'll see modding and roms for our g7?

I don't think so, without at least one enthusiastic dev it's not possible. There are no resources so any potential dev have to figure everything out by himself, constantly risking to brick an expensive device. Luckily, the stock 10f rom works real well and the hardware is superb. One just risk living without some typical root utilities.
I would be happy for some dev picking it up, but I don't count on it.
