Language Help - Sprint LG G4

I also posted this in the ZVB MellowMallow thread, but no one was answering so I'm also posting it here.
The problem I'm having only exists on the MellowMallow ROM. Stock ZVB and ZVC seem to be working fine. Here's what the problem is : The language Korean doesn't display properly. It looks like this : ㅇㅏㄴㄴㅕㅇ, all disconnected and unreadable. The first 3 "letters" of that word SHOULD be combined into one "sub-letter", same goes for the last three.
This is how the letters SHOULD look like : 안녕. (I'll attach images in case the browser is unable to display korean, the first screenshot is how Korean SHOULD look like, second one is how it's displaying in MellowMallow right now, so incorrect.)
This bug can be partially solved by setting the system FONT to something else (settings,system apps and a few other things seem to be working fine with a different font, but Korean apps in the Play store, videos on youtube, Chrome, etc. still have problems displaying Korean properly.)
As for solutions, I tried resetting / wiping cache from recovery mode, going back to stock ZVB (Korean was displaying correctly when I did this, so it looks to be something exclusive to MM) and re-flashing, asking for advice from a local tech forum, and even going to an LG service center to see if they could work something out. Obviously, none of that worked.
I know the developer of the rom stopped development for this phone, but I just see no other way to solve this issue as I have no knowledge on editing build.prop files / things of that nature, so I was just hoping someone could help.

[Q] Firefox browser in webtop mode is stretching images

I am having an issue where pictures on web pages are being stretched to the right.
For example, on Facebook, when you click an image, it brings up an inset window where the image is designed to fit inside. When I click an image, it brings up the small inset, places the image into it correctly, and then decides that the picture needs to have the right side about an inch or so to the right of the boundaries.
It happened again on images embedded in twitter today, and I was wondering if anyone else uses webtop frequently and is experiencing the same problem.
For reference, I at one point had my phone rooted, installed the chrome webtop hack, and then eventually flashed back to stock with RSD lite, and did a factory reset. The problem has manifested since then, and I would gladly answer any questions that might lead to a resolution.[Edit:] It is important to note that it happens specifically with facebook, twitter, and some other sites. The woot family of sites, and many others seem to load fine. The problem seems to only arise when an image must be resized.
As a side note to the moderators, the thread creator gives me an error message when I select the question checkbox. I checked, and the general forum is supposed to be a Q&A forum, so I don't know if that is intended.

[Q] Change CM10.1 to work in Tablet mode

Just recently pulled my old DS7 out of the corner and after seeing, nvflashed this really great Unofficial CM10.1 for Dell Streak 7 ROM on it. Works great, apart from the one tiny problem - it thinks it's a phone ... I already used Uninstall Master to remove some Phone features, such as: SIM Toolkit(it's called Mobile Data i think?), Messaging and Mobile Network Configurator. Was wondering how or where can I change or modify the settings related to how the Cyanogenmod acts as a Phone or a Tablet so that many apps from Play Store wouldn't default to the portrait mode.
On a sidenote - thanks to giveen and anyone involved in making this really awesome CM port to DS7 :good:

The reason why it is that way is because there are 4G models of the DS7

Understandable, but since I have a Wi-Fi only version I wanted to know if It's possible to change this in form of a setting or a few lines inside a configuration file without involving compiling. I even faintly remember stumbling upon something like this on a CM9 version I had on my old Xperia MT15i Neo ... if only I could remember or find where or how (currently strolling through the developer and CM10 related menus) - deleted my Xperia related bookmarks when I sold it.
p.s. - people mentioned some problems with the on-screen keyboard disappearing as described in one of the posts on the main CM10.1 thread, I've noticed them myself too and they tend to be application specific ... it feels like the keyboard crashes or force-closes due to not enough memory, like in lighter applications the keyboard works fine, but when trying to use the keyboard for writing for example a post in the comments section in a website will most likely result in keyboard disappearing after first input character.
So I am still trying to figure out why you started a new thread about this and what your question is.
To remove mobile data completely requires a new compile, something that cannot be done right now for a variety of reasons.
I guess I simply went too far off topic while trying to explain why I'm writing here... sorry.
So, to clear things up, the question still remains the same - what can I do to make it act more like a tablet and less like a phone on my Wi-Fi only DS7. So what I'm trying to find in the developer and CM menus is if I can more or less simply switch between some sort of "phone" and "tablet" mode so that some applications from Play store wouldn't default to portrait view mode.
And I noted that I've already uninstalled/disabled (call it how you want - I can restore them from the Unnstallers Recycle Bin if something weird starts to occur) some of the system .apks and as You already pointed out:

... so thanks for clarifying that and no need to do any special versions - it's just fine how it is now. I didn't come here to request anything to be compiled or modified for me but just to ask for info, heck, I wasn't even expecting You to be answering on this thread.

I make it my special concern to answer questions, even if it with sarcasm
I'm not sure what more you can do besides deleting the phone. Comment out in build.prop the rild stuff
I wonder if he is referring to TabUI? Which I as well am trying to relocate the flash able .zip which enabled this display difference. I have been running cm10.1 2/12 because of the sensors not working on the 2/14 build.
Sorry to piggyback the thread, but is there an answer for where the tab ui .zip is for the 2/12 build?

Really TICKED OFF that the MMS is dead. Read everything I can find on other Forums and nothing has worked. Going to start a new thread here because this seems to be the only place on the web where device specific discussion, especially for these this device, happens.
I am being offered a HUGH OTA update but it doesn't say what it is.
I am in the USA and the device actually came from India.
Anyone in the USA know if this is the 6.0.1 update and does the device retain full phone capability??

OK going to answer my own question.
Yes it is the update to 6.0.1
Did a lot of research before moving on with the download.
It will complete the download and then give you some instructions.
It will also list the Versions and build numbers. Looked those up to find out what reagion they were for and that told me I was getting a version for Australia so I was sure I was going to get to keep the phone function. I Did.
The research I did gave a bunch of instructions and cautions about backing up all your data and apps. WAS NOT NECESSARY. Every APP I had was reloaded and all of my screens were restored just like before. It even saved my APN DATA for the phone. The only oddity was that it put some shortcuts on the home screen to some of my Drive files and to my voicemail quick dialer.
General observations:
I HATE the SMS APP now. Lost a lot of control over the background and bubble appearance.
Not real enthused about the new drop down menu background and icon definition either.
The problem is both cases is that the backgrounds are white/light grey and the icons/bubbles are medium blue. Not a lot of contrast so they will be hard to see in bright light.
The new MEMO APP is going to take some getting used to but, I think I will like it.

What was wrong with the 815Y stock messaging sms app? Compared to the 815?

EMUI update notification sent me to potential malware site

Hello!
I'm afraid my phone might have malware. Hopefully it's a false alarm but I would appreciate any insight into the behavior:
Yesterday I saw a notification with the EMUI icon (stylized red "UI") but when bringing up the notification panel all I saw was a green "down" arrow and no text. I've had apps with bugs creating broken notifications before so I tapped it to check. It sent me to a webpage flagged as a source of malware "d1.3gmimo.com/handpet/wallpaper/...<can't remember rest>". I closed the page and since Chrome showed the warning before loading the page I think it's safe to assume I didn't download anything.
I don't know the origin of the notification though so I'm afraid there might be some malware already present. It had the EMUI icon but that can be faked or may be the default when no icon is configured (not sure how it works).. The notification appeared over mobile data so no router redirect infection. Searches gave me only one hit I could make sense of - a forum thread with the poster describing a similar event. They got not explanation but see here for their screenshots: Google Translate on thread-5858387-1-1.html on club.huawei.com (can't post links yet it seems)
I am very careful with the apps I install, avoid all the copycat crap, and I only allow Google Play as a source. The phone was only ever used by me except briefly by a family member which I trust not to download anything sketchy. Still, I uninstalled the most recent 2 apps: Hashi and Nonogram Katana (has ads) , though these had been installed a week before. The list of installed apps shows nothing new/strange. I also installed AVL, Bitdefender, and Avast but they found nothing. (I know it's debated whether av/anti-malware apps are helpful but thought to cover everything.)
Any thoughts?
Thank you in advance!
Phone details:
Huawei P7-L10
Android 4.4.2
EMUI 2.3 (V100R001C02B129)
Branded by Vodafone and with their uninstallable apps - using it on different network though.
I know I should update but the update app doesn't find anything (I understand this may be due to modifications made by telecom companies) and I got lazy since I've had no compatibility issues. I guess I should think more about security.
After doing more digging and learning to use adb to look at the logcat, I think the notification might have been created by VLife, which is Huawei's wallpaper distribution service.
On my phone I have VLife 2.23.3 installed (seems to be stock) as a system app. The title is in Chinese but the icon is the EMUI logo. (I figured out which app it is by the icon and version number, after I found the app hosted on aptoide.com while googling for "vlife".)
I presume what happened is that VLife tried to download a new wallpaper (no idea why all of a sudden) and it went to 3gmimo.com, which might serve as a mirror for apps. The site is flagged as having malware. This might be a false alarm or the site might have been hijacked since my version of VLife came out.
So the app might be ok. Though I'm still worried why the sudden update. Maybe there's a central message that was sent to the app to update? (The logcat below mentions a receiver.) The only suspicious thing about the app otherwise is that it has the permission to record sound along with changing sound settings. The latter isn't so surprising since it provides multimedia wallpapers. Maybe recording comes with the rest of the sound permissions. I've disabled the app and disabled its notifications for now. It can't be uninstalled since it's a system app.
These lines come up quite often in my logcat:
I/am_proc_start( 604): [0,18761,10089,com.vlife.huawei.wallpaper:main,broadcast,com.vlife.huawei.wallpaper/com.vlife.receiver.PetMainReceiver] - the link I got referred to a "handpet"
I/am_proc_start( 604): [0,18907,10089,com.vlife.huawei.wallpaper:main,broadcast,com.vlife.huawei.wallpaper/com.vlife.receiver.InstallEventReceiver]
Does anybody know more about this app or service?
Thanks!

****! Help!

Hi, to begin if this is not the subject my sincere apologies, as you will see, I am new.
I have two appointments.
1- What would happen if I put the firmware of the Samsung J120M in my J110M. I've searched everywhere for a rom for the J110M and I do not find it, it contains Android 5.1.1 lollipop (But **** haha, it's ugly) the J120M also contains 5.1.1 lollipop (very nice, updated apps, very smart.).
Like every member of the community (I suppose) I am very obsessive. I like that my android is extremely tidy and obviously I like it. So for this first point I want to know if at least the worst thing that could happen is that you have to install the J110M firmware via download mode. Because if I ***** I ****ed.
Now 2 !.
As I never found a rom for this cel, it took me to customize it on my own. I replaced the samsung browser (for a more recent version) I replaced the touchwiz launcher (for an s7 launcher with icons of this one) obviously replacing the apk of the system. I saw a subject right here, where a developer posted s6 apps for any samsung device with android 5.1 lollipop with touchwiz interfaces. But none served me !!. I replaced the default apk (obviously copying) from the gallery, added the samsung player, also from My files, etc. And each one when restarting the cell phone threw the error "Gallery has stopped" etc etc. I deleted the data and everything, even reset the cel several times and it did not work. So if someone tells me how I could make these applications compatible for this cell phone (j110m) I would be very grateful.
