Root [ROM][BETA][4.1.2] AOKP Jelly Bean for Virgin Mobile and Sprint 12/30/2013

phenomx4

Android Expert
Recognized Developer
This is a beta release of AOKP for the Optimus Elite so please don't expect this to be 100% stable. You may get random reboots and lockups or you may not. Before flashing this rom I recommend you make a NAND backup just in case.



About: (taken from the aokp website.)

What is AOKP?

AOKP stands for Android Open Kang Project. It is a custom ROM distribution for several high-end Android devices. The name is a play on the word kang and AOSP (Android Open Source Project). The name was sort of a joke, but it just stuck, just like our infatuation with unicorns.
We fork the source code of Android that Google puts out in the open with every major version release, and we then add the magical unicorn bytes (read: we add some of the coolest features that are both useful and make your ROM awesome).
With AOKP, you can generally do a lot more with your device than what you could do with the original firmware that came installed on it.



What works:


  • Audio/speaker phone
  • Headset/headphones
  • Calls and texts
  • Touchscreen
  • Lights/brightness
  • Offline charging
  • External SD
  • Bluetooth
  • Wifi
  • Proximity sensor
  • Overclocking
  • Tethering using an app called "Wifi Tether for Root Users" from the play store with the settings used in F.A.Q below.
  • Mass storage
  • Camera


What's partially working:


  • Data (stuck on 1x but get 3g speeds.)
  • NFC ( NFC tags and google wallet are non functional.)
What's not working:


  • You tell me.


Issues:

  • you may have random reboots or lock ups or you may not.
  • Google Wallet doesn't work and opening it causes nfc to not work until you do a reboot. Will fix this soon.
  • There may be some graphic issues on apps such as Google Maps.

Installation instructions:

To install this rom you must first have a custom recovery installed onto your phone.
You can learn how to do this here " http://androidforums.com/elite-all-things-root/620742-faq-guide-clockworkmod-optimus-elite.html"


  • 1. Download the appropriate rom for your phone and then Gapps. (Gapps is needed if you need to use google services such as Google Play.)
  • 2. You need to copy the downloaded rom and Gapps to your internal memory or your external memory.
  • 3. Boot into recovery.
  • 4. If you are coming from a Gingerbread rom you need to do a full wipe. (cache, davlik cache, data, and system.) If you are coming from an other ICS rom e.g CM9 then you just need to wipe cache and davlik cache.
  • 5. Select install zip from where ever you put the files onto. So if you put it on the external sd card you would pick "Install from SD Card".
  • 6. Install in the following order. "Rom and then Gapps"
  • 7. Reboot.
Please note that the first install will take some time ( About 3 to 5 minutes.)

F.A.Q

Q. What settings do I use to get tethering to work?

This ROM is golden. Nice work! I'm not switching phones for a while.

The only problem I'm having right now is that the stock gallery app is nonfunctional for me
 
WAZE is not loading for me.

"Error. WAZE can't access your SD card. Make sure it isn't mounted".

I have enabled Use SD Card storage in system settings, and can access my sd card with Total Commander.

Other than this, I am enjoying everyone's hard work.

I get a message that it was installed, I'm guessing because I updated from ICS instead of wiping everything. I was able to remove the shortcut and re-add it from all apps and it works.
 
Will there be a "data" toggle at some point in time? Thanks for all of your work. Liking AOKP on this phone much better than CM9. Seems faster, and battery life seems better.
 
Love this! Anyone else having brightness keep turning up by itself every time you come out of screen lock though?
