Is there any way to get the 4ExtRecovery as an alternative to CWM on our phone?
I just read some threads and already used the search function, but nothing really useful came out, so I ask this here.
Or is it just possible if the bootloader is unlocked?
Thanks for the answers and sorry for my bad english!
Maybe after LG give us unlocked bootloader.

Okay thanks for your answer first!
So I conclude that we need the unlocked bootloader for it...
But why is CWM working with a locked bootloader then? Is it so much different?
I just saw it on the HTC Sensation of a friend and asked what this is, so he said its 4ExtRecovery and I researched it on myself...
...sent with my LG Optimus 4X HD...
Because that was one guy who was able to do it. We have few devs here, after jb update and unlocking bl this device will be more attractive so maybe u will get the recovery sometime
Okay, thanks! I hope so, too...
I would like to develop on my 4X too and I have still some experiences with java, but I think it won't help me on Android System

In fact it may be usefull somehow. I spent my last days free time reading and downloading basic stuff to work on porting and developing ROMs. So if this is your first attempt like to me in android and you'd like to share exp., just pm me and lets begin with it

Honestly I don't think 4EXT will ever be availible, as it is closed source. So nobody can make an unofficial port (as with CWM or TWRP), and the dev doesn't plan to support our device.

Okay, didn't know that is closed source. Thanks for the information...
I will research it and will write on the dev why he doesn't plan to support our device (didn't read it anywhere, where are these information from?), I mean he even says that
The new 4EXT Recovery generation is necessary to properly support newer devices.

Okay, I think you will have a PM soon :good:
It's just the information I got from the website 4ext.net. The source isn't published anywhere there and also not in any forum here. And on the website he states that besides the newer HTC devices only the N4 would be supported.
If you can encourage him to let you work on a 4X por1 that would be nice. But as said, I doubt there will be one.

I believe that was done by Dexter, although I can't be certain as you didn't bother to post a link to the video. If I am right then it's a beta version which is run with the stock kernel - if you search on these forums you will probable find a reference to it, but I think he has stopped developing for our device due to the locked bootloader and (I think) he has got rid of his 4X as well.

you are correct
I do not have o4x in my possesion anymore, sorry. I have limited support options now and not very interesting. the modem driver was not easy to get around, so the sense4.1 release was never public, since it would be 900MB download for nothing, but a startup and running the senseUI, but no modem/data and wifi making it worthless.

I'm not sure there are actually ANY developers on XDA for our device. Also, the last thing I would ever want from a custom ROM is Sense - that is one of the main reasons why I moved away from HTC - it may look pretty, but it is a serious resource hog. The only custom ROM I would ever really be interested in is something vanilla - CM, AOSP, AOKP, whatever.
I would like to learn how to develop roms for my device
Can someone help me

Start off by searching - both XDA and Google. Find out how a ROM is put together, what part the kernel, and the main O/S do - find out how to sort out the drivers, get someone else's ROM for a different device and see how it is put together. There is so much out there already, you simply need to search and if you are good enough to produce a ROM then you will succeed.

Do you mean you flashed [ROM][SENSE][10-01-2013] UnoX SENSE4 for Optimus 4X HD - FIRST CUSTOM ROM!
If so then that's a fairly silly thing to do - it is an Alpha release, from a developer who no longer has the phone, and it's based on ICS, not JB.

Thridly - you've already posted your "problem" in that ROM thread, so posting here makes it cross-posting which is against the rules of XDA (and just about every forum on the planet).

Use the program attached here if you can't use LG Update Tool. In Model write P990 and IMEI write your phones IMEI without - only number. It'll find the V30A and download it for you.
PS: I honestly don't give a crap about the firmware itself, I am just waiting for the source codes
The program downloads V20S :\

Hi devs,
I need to ask a simple question... Will the LG Optimus 4X HD be able to receive an update to the new 4.2.2 Jelly Bean, since the phone meets the minimum requirements for the update?
P.S. Please DO NOT tell me about any mods around. I am not a fan of rooting, so sorry.
Thanks!

I don't think lg will bother with a 4.2 update, I don't think 4.3 is far away so it it outdated by the time it was released anyway.
You've already stated that your opposed to it but I'm on CyanogenMod 4.2.2 and it already better than what lg would release anyway
I've sent a message to LG Open Source about future updates, but i doubt we will get some infos..

You do realize that no one here is some executive for lg who knows this right? You're asking cellphone fans to tell you insider information that in sure most employees for lg don't know. You may as well ask who's going to run the super bowl so you can place your bets now and get rich.

You joined this forum in 2005 and have over 600 posts. You should know where certain posts belong (This is the general section, yet you posted a question here even though there's a Q&A section). You also asked for an ETA, You should know that members should never ask for ETAs.
Once we have a custom recovery (If you would have spent a little time looking in the development section, you would quickly realized that we don't have a custom recovery yet) i'm sure it could be ported. We all want KitKat, but sitting around and making pointless threads (like this one) isn't going to make it come any faster.

So cm has been compiled but isn't fully working. I found the problem in my past builds and will now use that to make fully working build for the d415 which will hopefully be done by tomorrow
Also. A lot of you are complaining when I don't get it done by the time I set. Which always says hopefully. Which means i don't know what life will hold and when I'll be able to work on it.
