I noticed there wasn't any stock, rooted and deodexed android 4.2.1 for the nexus 4 so I thought I share the one I created for myself.
Features:
Rooted
Deodexed
Zipaligned
Insecure boot
Busybox
Download:
mako_4.2.1_Deodexed.zip - 300.80 MB
just to clarify, this is a simple flash through CWM/TWRP right?

I didn't try on my phone but it's working on my laptop.
Does this include gaps? and if so does the wallet app work with root?
download speed kinda slow :-\
If I used this rom would I get the next android update?

Yes it does, it's a stock firmware that's been pre-rooted and deodexed. I didn't remove anything.
Wallet should work fine.

No you won't. The official updates are patches that need to be installed through unmodded firmware. It's very easy to go back using this kit if need be. Also, I'm sure myself or another member would have a pre-rooted version of the update pretty quickly after it's release so it shouldn't be too much of an issue.

I love my stock rooted rom the way it is, I just want it deodexed. Could I just flash this over it? Or do you think that'll cause me issues without a wipe? I'll probably just end up backing up and giving it a go. Haha.

You'll have to wipe. Odex files won't be cleared out otherwise.

Just clear cache/dalvik. odex files are on the system partition and do get cleared when installing a new rom.
I love you and i love that this ROM did not wipe the phone
I was running stock+root, updated no issues
When i flash this will it be the same as getting the ota except for the fact that this one is deodexed? Also this has all the fixes the ota has correct??

The UNROOT
If you wanna unroot your device, why so ever, the easiest way is to use Unlock Root (Link above) open it, connect your phone via USB, enable Debugging Mode and click unroot. If you wanna unroot it, e.g. to be able to send it back to LG on warranty, better use the method below, to unbrick your device with R&D tool.
Because like this, you will get back an unrooted device, which has also been hardresetted. So LG will hardly/never get a clue, that it has ever been rooted.
Dont forget to format your SD card as well

That's from my how to, but I think I should correct this. Use Smartflashtool and flash the latest version available for you. Do a factory reset from within settings menu and everything should be fine

Maybe just to check whether the version of Odin he's looking at (assuming that's the question) can be used with the I9000 (if its one of those online guides from other websites, some of them can be a bit vague). Plus, so many versions of Odin

It's because AFAIK it's not pure MJ5 but it's modified. We never had MJ5 build on Kies or Sammobile.

I restored to mj5 and then did Ota update to another version which worked fine and then it tried to do an Ota update to 4.4.2 and fails. Thinking of trying emergency firmware restore via kies and see if that works.

It won't. Kies only has MI9. It will fail because of different flash count in aboot trust me.

I can confirm this. Tried this also and it fails
I think I might know a way. Someone who restored and cannot update PM me.
Is there any way just to force the download?

post here when a custom recovery is found to be working on the AT&T Galaxy s5 G900a
Thanks to geohot over at towelroot.com we can all bask in the glory of absolute freedom. Until a custom recovery is confirmed we won't be flashing any ROMS so when one is found please post in this section. As well as any custom ROMS known to be compatible with the galaxy s5 g900a.
Anyone thought about SafeStrap yet? Is this a possibility?
