Im scared of bricking it like i done with my play

In fact, you cant really brick any device, since it is software modding only ;-) if you cant recover your phone nomore, i am quite sure, it was a hardware bug. Or you completely didnt follow a guide given...
Sent from my LG-P970 using Tapatalk
The easiest way :
- install ROM manager
- flash CWM from it
- put your rom (zip) in your sd card
- reboot to recovery from ROM manager
- flash it from CWM
or
N00BY0815's thread
Thanks for.

There is no WRONG CM. Go to http://get.cm/?device=p970 and choose the one you like. Mostly the new ones are better, but not always, since they sometimes produce unknown errors. I wouldnt flash CM anyway, if your new to flashing and stuff. Better try v3 of huexxx's Zeus ROM. Find it in DEV Section.
PM me, if you still have your old bricked phone. And give me your Facebookname, cause maybe we can unbrick it
I tried zeus v3.2, there are bugs that needs to be fix. I encountered the need to re-enter my google account password every restart. The call function seems to lag and sometimes FC.
This is my experience and thus sharing it here will give the DEV to fix it for us.
Then you definitly either chose the wrong version, or made a fault during installation. I am using it since the beginning and never had any bug with it. And trust me, cm still has faaaaaaar more bugs ;-)

Maybe the rom + kernel combination is wrong or the rom is just being buggy.
I just personally liked nAa's work because he release a stable version of every product.
If you want to change into the recommended rom that I just told you;
1. Flash the latest kernel (06)
2. Follow instruction on the kernel post. (/system wipe at recovery before flashing a rom & etc)
3. Flash the rom. Followed by the GAPPS
4. As it said, this is my recommendation steps. I do not guarantee your satisfactory

Quick help for a newbe: where to find New Bootloader
Hi there,
I am a newbe that wants to load a custom rom on my LG P990.
I've read a lot about it already and on this forum etc.
I hope you are willing to provide me a few sentences explanation:
* I want to load CM11, I need the New Bootloader for that. Where can I find the New Bootloader?
* I also found out that there is an All In One Toolkit. Does this toolkit include the New Bootloader? Can I use this All In One Toolkit for flashing CM11 to LG P990?
* It does not become clear to me if I only need to download the ROM or also the kernel? Or does the ROM already include the correct kernel? (e.g. following this latest build/update on this XDA forum: post by gucky01 on 25 Oct. 08:41)
* Finally you can maybe provide me a few words on the difference between 3.1 and M1? Why have two sources of ROMs been developed, why not just continue with 1?
Thanks a lot!
In aio u can change bootloaders
Flash with recovery the twrp 2.7.10.zip search it in development. After boot to your twrp recovery make wipe
And install the rom
The kernel is inside the cm11 rom
OK, I was able to flash to CM11.
Just one question: I searched hell out of google, but I cannot find nowhere TWRP 2.7.10 (or twrp 2.7.10.zip), and not at all for LG P990.
Latest version for LG P990 is TWRP 2.6.00 according to official TWRP site and according AIO-tool.
See this! The lastets version of TWRP on our phone.

Bad Battery - Battery life (Advice)
If some of you have noticed sudden "reboot" let's say, I have got an advice for you!
Some months ago, my phone suddenly turned off even if the battery level was up to 80 percent. I was pretty shocked and I did not know what that means. Then my phone tried to reboot but it stucked in bootloop and I could not turn on the phone. Is it caused by rom? I thought. So I removed the battery and inserted back again. I plugged in the charger and then I was able to boot my phone again. It happened very often and I was crying a lot.
It was very annoying so I decided to buy a new battery. I replaced the old one by the new one and now everything works perfectly.
And of course it will take some time to get the new battery working well (I recommend full charging cycles (from 20 percent to 100 percent)).
Do not discharge your battery to 0 percent. It does not like any of the Li-ion batteries.
touch my phone does not work
please help me !
can you teach me how to build tonyp's source code ,thks!
it sees some code not in tonyp's framework/base ,like getSimNameBySubScription.
sorry,i'm not good at english.
Battery Charge Issue
First of all thank you tonyp and all others who worked to get Kit-Kat for our old phones and make it new again
However I have below questions - would be really grateful if someone would help me with them. I am on M1 Jul 21:41:16 CEST2014-20140716
1) I am unable to upgrade my M1 with CWM and TWRP with all versions and all possible wipe methods, was trying to update (gucky01) weekly updates but always ended up in an error, tried dirty, clean dalvik, clean partation..aah everything, but no go
2) This is most important one, since I have upgraded to above mentioned ROM from stock ICS, its taking ages to get a complete charge. Really need some help here since I was able to get a full charge in like 80mins I guess with stock, however with this one it usually take about 5 hours! for 1500mAh battery?? Really?? C'mon!!
Let me know if there are any workarounds for above posted questions.
Thank you again to all developers, god bless you all
link for the updates
can someone please give me the link to download the new updates
Hey guys, i'd like to ask:
Running 13. October build w/optimizations and latest 3.1 KK.
When I manage to get oom (4 tabs in browser or so), phone becomes unresponsive (as expected), but then the notification bar gets really laggy. Interesting is that when it's extracted to fullscreen, the animations are really slow (5 fps or so) , but when the less i see from navbar, the faster it is. (When i swipe down the bar for just a little bit, it doesn't even lag). Do you know what can cause this problem? I thought it might be rendering problems after systemui.apk got forceclosed while oom.

Unknown issue with Google Play services
Update: I found a solution. Please see post #20 below.
Hi, I've installed the latest tonyp test build 20150130. I did a full wipe but often get "Unknown issue with Google Play services." Any ideas why?
I have installed some of the latest Google apps such as Maps, Play Music, and Hangouts.
Google Play services is currently version 6.5.99 on my phone. I've tried clearing the cache and can't see how to reinstall it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
Everything is great except for the camera. I have a problem when recording video . picture freezes . I do not have that problem with ICS . I use the kernel M1 .
Anyone have problem with mobile data?I use last tonyp rom and its fantastic,but same problem i have like on previous roms,mobile data crashed all the time...
Video recording and mobile data work fine here.

Hey all, I solved this by updating Google Play services to version 6.6.03. You can find and download it on MihirGosai's [APPs] [SHARE] Google Play Services 6.7.74 and Google Play Games 2.2.09 thread.
Not sure if it made a difference but I also switched from CWM to TWRP 2.8.1.0 found on DJNoXD's [RECOVERY] [newbl] TWRP 2.8.1.0 touch recovery [2014-11-30] thread.
Things seem a lot more stable after these two changes.
Thanks for the awesome ROMs tonyp!!

questions about the temasek build
So before I apply the update to the new update to temasek do I need to flash the bootstack for it to work even coming from your optimized cm 12.1 builds? And if so what bootstck do we need? Thanks.
Edit: sorry I guess I read the discussion post to fast, I guess that's for people coming from stock or anything other than kitkat

Temasek rom on d405N with LG quick case
Hi, am trying your latest right now, great job again.
Clean install using slim mini gaps as per your link.
Some issues/ remarks
1: First boot appears to get stuck on CM boot anim. (blue flashing andr. head) longer than with other roms, then goes straight to lock screen, no android updating popup etc. as has been my experience with other roms. So don't pull the battery too quickly (as I did at first attempt), patience is a virtue:angel:
2: Initial set up menu doesn't get past ''Checking connections'', (this may take up to 2 minutes) yeah right, so I hit back and skip and I setup wifi later.
3: Takes longer than for instance your optimized rom to get a cell connection after inserting sim pin.
4: Root acces problems. As has been mentioned in main thread.
5: Quick case working as it should opening and closing the case, missing other functionality, but this is great:highfive:,
That's it for quick impressions, keep up the good work and good night.
Is this rom working better than CM12.1? Does apps start up faster etc...
Love the ROM so far! Default CM root was working until the first reboot (tested with su command in the virtual terminal). The su command in terminal continued to work fine after reboot (remembered permission), but new apps could not get the root request notification. So I had to flash SuperSU as suggested. It does take some time to boot up after the flash but it's well worth. Got like 700 more points in AnTuTu!
Keep up the great work!

There are kernel settings you can adjust that seem to minimize the reboots. But sometimes without even changing any settings, I can go days without a reboot. Then sometimes I'll get 3 in like an hour or 2. But if you mess with some settings, you can find ways to almost get rid of the random reboots

Thanks, I will try messing with the settings. Although, sometimes touch screen has some problems responding, locking and unlocking the screen fixes it. Despite its bugs, its still a awsome ROM. :good:
Hi guys So I have been wanting to install this rom, I was reading the directions and it says I must have an unlocked bootloader but I remember reading somewhere else that the bootloader is technically unlocked. Is that true? I just don't want to install this rom and cause a bootloop or something
Btw my device is the D415

I'll be honest, I started this rom-changing thing with an old but faithful Verizon's Samsung Fascinate I got from the States a while ago, but never worked on LG until now, 6 months ago I decided to pass on my guarantee and rooted the phone and started to tweak it, long story short, I couldn't get it to work on this KDZ app by LG so I was getting desperate, started trying with some ROMs and discovered in a thread (I think it was @Xemidra, or someone else referred someone to his Bootstack thread if I'm not mistaken, [and I'm actually looking for the post to thank him lol]), the thing is that after flashing BOOTSTACK_v1.4_D405N-10F while on your ROM the phone inmediatly recognized my sim card, now im happy... trying to learn little by little about Java and all this new world... I'd really love the camera to record video and that'll be it for your ROM sir... I haven't had not a single reboot, not a glitch or anything, it just gets slightly clumsy at times but it's almost noticeable...

Absolutely love this ROM! Flashed clean 20150606 and than did the OTA update when the new build came out. Recovery script worked fine, automatic reboots, flashing, etc. just like regular OTA update. System UI crashed a couple of times after update, I think because of Nova Launcher. Went back to Trebuchet and it didn't crash since, not even a reboot. Haven't experienced any SIM problems. Enjoying it very much on my LG-D405n.

Hello there,
I recently order mi5 from an eu reseller. They said device will have pre installed Google play. However, I watched a review saying that most phones come with Chinese os which contains malware thus it is not safe to use.
My question is, hiw can I find this out and if this is the case what should I do to remove them?
Thank you in advance,
Tom
I wish you will receive your upcoming MI5 with vendor modified ROM and certainly you should be able to flash China stable, development and there are a forbidden Global ROM 7.2.4.0 !
Thank you for your reply.
So, which ROM is the bad one that needs to be changed and how do I find out?
Sent from my A0001 using XDA-Developers mobile app
You can check your rom in the device settings, and if it's not exactly what you expect then you should flash an official one. But really, if there is any malware, that's reason enough to flash another one.

I'm about to receive my mi5 and i don't know if it's come from xiaomi direct or from a reseller because I'm buying it second hand but the unit is brand new so how do I tell if it will have the malware? And how do I flash and install new global rom?

I can't say that much, but I basically went off the premise that if you can notice the malware then flash another rom and otherwise you're fine. I got mine from gearbest.com and didn't flash a new one until CM13. You might be able to remove the malware with something else but i don't really know

Hmm well the guy said he brought it direct drom xiaomi and the phone box is still sealed and everything so I would assume it wouldn't have malware on it.
Should see it in a couple of days so will let you know how it goes
At my side, the version seems to be the same as the global version, compared to one in settings, but there still is one malware app in it, com.android.comp.download.mgrv11, which has Android/Deng2.JQI in it and it's built in (system app). It seems that all that has to be done is to disable it in settings.
I got mine from eGlobal, it came flashed with Google Play Store and also some rather annoying system apps (CM Security and something else) that I couldn't uninstall. Also as it was a hacked firmware, I couldn't do OTA updates. Ended up flashing stable Chinese ROM and unlocking the bootloader then flashing Global ROM. Will be switching over to CM13 once I get time to work out what's needed.
How much do you guys score on antunu?
