I'm not sure if this is dumb , but I down loaded photon browser and was able to watch YouTube videos . Not sure if anyone already knew that .

Great find. But with this being said, could it be a flash player issue in the ROM seeing that this is a browser and flash player?
 
Well, I've ran myself into a funny situation!

I flashed the ROM, and this is some serious jazz :D
But! I just wanted to give it a look, so no gapps, just a quick test.
I try to get into the recovery and SECURITY ERROR D:
but it reboots just fine into the ROM, no issues at al.
Guess I'll just have to wait for the final build with no data, unbrick and reflash huh?

you should flash the Gapps. if you have the lte2 recovery app on your SD card you should be able to install it with file manager.

other then that yes unbrick
 
A security error? Did you factory reset and wipe? That sounds like it had 2 different sys files and caused the error. That doesn't happen if you did a wipe first. I would reflash it.

yea shouldnt get the security error with Cm10 at all. CWM is already installed in xbin, but if for whatever reason its not rebooting to it, then yes the 2nd-init apk can be used to reinstall it. System gets wiped/formatted during install, so no need to wipe it manually. ;)

well yes, i have the recovery apk. It gets to the funky green split LG logo before the boot, which it's supposed to do, it sits for about a second, then it reboots and just starts up into cm10 just fine.

now by toggle, do you mean just hit the two buttons at the same time??
because I've tried this:

from power off:
hold down power and vol+ vol-
when LG shows up, release power but continue holding vol+ and -
SECURITY ERROR

nah, soon as the lg logo appears start toggling vol - and vol + up & down. or if it stops on the lg logo when booting to recovery. it seems to hang up for whatever reason on the logo but is actually booted to recovery.
 
I realized what I'm doing wrong! I don't have the touch recovery installed! I'll have to wait to get to a wifi spot to download. USB isn't mounting, and I'm on a Mac at work, so I can't do much anyways :mad:

Even adding the mass_storage,adb isn't allowing the apk i downloaded onto my mac to transfer to my sd x_x

EDIT AGAIN: I fixed it! It was just a bad backup so I just got a new Katana and all is well :3

I don't know if it's just me but that 1x is super fast compared to stock on 4g . The web pages load up in seconds like if I were to be on WiFi . The downloads seem to be going faster too . Time of the day dosent seem to matter .
