when you make it?

I like that reply xD but when ever a Dev finds interest or has the time to make one. Not sure how the community is on this phone, but this phone hasn't even been out for a month or two and there is no possible reason to ask for one at this time on such an early phone. Wait and see what happens. Only time can tell.

You have to wait for a dev to get a hold of one of the phones. They don't do this for a living, they have lives too...

How would someone go about porting this over to the phone?

 

[Shabbypenguin]

start with my cwm files, make cm7 based off em and then start to fix things... normally getting it to boot first

Its not easy to port a rom for a phone when you have no files to work with to begin with....
If someone sends me a nandroid I might be able to do something but no promises.

dont necessarily need a nandroid. A adb pull /system system will work.

For the rest of CM7 tho you need a linux environment with the android sdk, java jdk, n various other files installed. Then need to setup repo and sync the cm7 repo and create/edit a device tree for it and then configure it for the device.

For CM9 same process but alot more work needed to get it all working correctly, like tons of kernel hacks.

OK Playful god and Shabby Penguins hooked on Macronics, I just bricked my LGMS695 I bought May 9th. Now I have one left. I am ready to ROOT and FLASH CWM. Let me now about trying out a ROM for you or anything else. I can do for you. I have ADB and QtADB, I think I can handle it!!
