Root Recompile KitKat 4.4.2_r1 for the Optimus L70

[itsmicaiahdude]

Recompile Rom?
I'm trying to recompile my MS323. I follow the directions as best I know according to compiling x86. Install and link all the toolchains including the CodeSourcery Lite toolchain, Link the NDK and SDK, and merge the extracted contents of the archive. I have recompiled the kernel, and merged the following:

Does the kernel source go somewhere inside the rom source?

the instructions state to issue the following:
1. .build/envsetup.sh
2. lunch
3. make

What choice for lunch?

I compiled it once and it ran with a blank screen; However it didn't boot based on what I observed. No adb or MTP access.

Hey itsmicaiahdude, I've moved your thread over to the all-things-root area for you since the guys/gals in here would most likely be able to answer your questions.

Best of luck!

Sorry to disappoint you but you wont be able to build AOSP kitkat with that. That's not the actual device tree that LG uses for the L70, those stuff are only for emulators. The only thing useful out of those links that LG uploaded is the Kernel source which they have to upload whether they like it or not, as for the actual device tree that they use to compile android, they don't have to release that.

Thank you. So now I have to make a device tree from scratch.
