Hello guys! I have been eyeing this device for a while now but why is there no support for custom roms at all? Even TWRP there is none? I was wonding there might be an official answer on this or we're just waiting on something? Or has everyone just legit gave up on this device?
Ok sorry please ignore. It has been answered here already. Thank you!

Hey everyone,
please forgive my ignorance here but I'm new to the Hero, HTC, Sprint and this forum. Wondering if I loaded a custom ROM on my phone, would I be able to convert back to the original sprint image in the future?
Also, do anyone have any ROM recommendations; where to download them? Looking for optimal speed really, if that helps narrow it down.
Thanks in advance

Hello guys, as you can see I am new to the forum and new to android in general. [Used to be an iOS fanboy] I have recently acquired an LG Optimus Black but i'm unhappy with the stock ROM provided by LG.
I have a few questions:
1) What are my options for rooting the device?
2) Once rooted, what custom ROMs are currently available for the device?
3) If I flash a new ROM is it possible and what would I need to have/do to restore the device back to the stock ROM?
And lastly...
4) What is the chance of fully bricking the device and what are my options if the device gets bricked?
Thanks a lot, [Hope this was the right section and hasn't been asked before...]

All was asked and ANSWERED before. Move your a** and search for it.
I have searched actually. The questions that have been answered aren't specific to my situation and I know that small details are very important when flashing phones. If you aren't answering the question I guess what you posted would be considered spam?
Guys,
Please refrain from bickering, two ways this can be easily resolved:
1. Use google search with the word xda in it to find your answer
2. Rather than posting move your a** and find it, if you know the link or answer, why not help a brother out?
I will say no more on the matter, its that simple.
THanks.

No point arguing..if you don't wanna help just ignore.
If you wanna reply, make sure it helps others.
1) What options? It's either you root or you don't. Either way, your phone works.
2) Currently there's only NOVA Rom by knzo.
3) Read this thread here.
4) Chances of bricking are slim if you read before attempting anything. If in any case your phone is bricked (boot loop), refer to the above.
Hope it helps.

Exactly what I needed, thanks a lot!
I've heard a lot of the current roots don't work for the OB?
And is NOVA the ONLY ROM at the moment, I thought I heard about another one?
Older firmwares, you can use Gingerbreak. If it doesn't work, then most probably you're on the newer firmwares. Then use SuperOneClick.
The other one is Pays ROM. It's been abandoned.
It needs v10b Firmware to run. If you're not familiar, stick to Nova ROM.
Cyanogenmod is in progress (i hope so)

Search and read before asking questions like this. :banghead:
At present there are Noo any custom tomes for our mobile bro. Recently a Dev was found to unlock bootloader, if unlocked we can enjoy all original Android stuff.
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app

Question is not dumb, well 4X has CWM, so custom ROM is an option, but if you are lazy and lacking enthusiasm, that is a no go.
How to...well that is very wide subject...best to search on different threads of development sections of the better supported phones SGS2...
So if you wish, you can learn how to and do it...if not...wait...

Thank you I actually managed to unbrick my redmi 9a phone today, which was the original question I was trying to ask, I am trying to install a custom rom (lineageos) and I tried so many unofficial twrp images until one of them got stuck in the logo screen and I couldn't go to the fastboot screen or the regular os
now that I figured out how to unbrick the device I would like to ask if there is a way to install a custom rom without twrp as I can't seem to get a version that works (the closest I have got is the twrp menu but the touch screen doesn't work)
