CyanogenMod devs play with JB - LG Optimus 4X HD

Have a look at Engadget's latest news, as I can't post the link. Seems like they know which device is worth it ...

Sweet!
I wonder if it means they've rooted it, because they'd need to do that first?

no,
it means they got a developer edition of the phone, which is unsecure and with root by default.

Rootable is really important to success!

Bootloader from dev atrix

Who have the UNLOCKED bootloader bin file from the Dev ATRIX ? I have 2 atrix and i'll try to flash it on my 2nd device for testing.
If you have all required files, mirror it please and post the links
UPDATE APRIL 18TH:
I need a software for open the bin files for comparison purposes ( HEX EDITOR DONT WORK )
I may be wrong, but what I have been told is that while the bootloader can be flashed, since it is not signed the phone will brick.

You won't be able to do much with these files.
dont waste it... ill buy it off of you dude.
It would be nice if someone who knew for sure would post if this is even possible before this guy ruins his phone! Though it is cool of him for trying since it could help everyone if it works out ok!
It is definitely not going to work. You really believe developers would not hadn't done this if it was the least bit promising?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
It will fail I believe because it will not be able to pass the checks for the sigs = brick. Unless of course you have a secret technique you wanna try that's not just a simple flash

Well if he does get it the bounty is so large he can buy a couple of xooms and nexus s.

He may want to tell us if he succeeded first, so, you know, the funds start transferring.
Are we sure this will even brick the phone? Without being signed wouldn't it just fail to start the process? What we need is a way to push the bootloader to the phone that does not require it being signed.
There is some information about the bootloader in
http://dev.gitbrew.org/~dasmoover/debdroid/doc/tegra/tegra_250_froyo_20110207.pdf
Not sure if it will help you out any...I have not gotten into Atrix development as much as I should.
If i replace the oem bootloader file by the dev atrix bin file, everything should works. Ill compare the 2 files tonight
I'm pretty sure someone has tried this..
visit #moto-atrix or #xda-atrix for more advice before doing anything..

Wow you just can't wait to brick your phone can you. Even after people told you what's gonna happen you still want to go through with it.
If anybody has what this guy is looking for please give it to him so we can luagh at him when he wants help unbricking his phone.

hi everybody they got a thread here i dont know where the thread is but the development is stop for now and the reason is that their first try was a not booteable rom but we should wait to see if they make us a good build
so lets wait and see if that come to us i love to have more developers here and this guys has a good team i am optimist that they can make a good build like the cm team and jokersax.
is a very good situation to have good developers around.

[Q] Android 4.3 how to install on rooted HTC One from Sprint?

Hi guys- I've been reading that Android ver.4.3 was relased last night via OTA but if we are rooted we cant get it. is there a way to upggrade install it while still being rooted? i current have TWRP ver. 2.5.0.0.
Thanks alot for your help.
Rgrds,
Robert1c
Even if it did, which I'm pretty sure it didn't, you wouldn't be able to receive it with unlocked bootloader.

I think OP already realized his mistake, he was just telling us which article he was referring to.
Man, if Sprint used the exact same hardware as the GSM Ones, I would be soooo happy.
Do ya think we're any closer to that? No that I'm going to stay with Sprint or anything hehe.
You can run android 4.3 by flashing CM 10.2. Been running it for a few days. Works great.

(ROM)carbon ROM 4.4 vs980

Looks like the thread for the carbon ROM for the Verizon lg g2 was deleted..
Luckily I saved a copy in the cloud.. I'll post a link but keep in mind this is just a copy of what was out there already. I have had nothing to do with the dev of this ROM so please don't give me any credit for it.
Here is a link to my box folder with the ROM and gaps I believe the build is the 1-7
https://app.box.com/s/7u6oh6gpvpqg54lnjxcb
I also put a 'copy of a flashible lg remote in there...
Thanks to @t3build here is the 1-16 build https://app.box.com/s/7u6oh6gpvpqg54lnjxcb
Here is a 1/24 build. This should boot, but make sure you back up your old rom just in case. If it doesn't boot, then turn your phone off my holding the power button. Then hold both the power and volume buttons down until the LG Logo flashes, then let go and press both again until you see the factory reset screen. Once you are there, press the power button 3 times and it will take you to your recovery. Cheers
http://www.mediafire.com/download/g4o7c4eh48uexei/CARBON-KK-UNOFFICIAL-20140124-1024-vs980.zip
Thanks to the man @Mrbobrowitz
I probably owe you guys more of a response than I left you with.
I am a college student in my last year of classes, and the workload is pretty heavy even at the start of the semester.
I messaged the mod asking for the thread to be deleted because I didn't want to cause Carbon any bad names because my build wasn't booting.
Long story short I will still be supporting Carbon for the vs980 until the official builds come out. Be looking for that in the next couple of days, possibly even tonight if I can find time.
Thanks for your understanding.

Thanks for all the work you've done thus far on this, and anything you're able to squeeze in moving forward is greatly appreciated. I've got a kid in college and understand: school comes first.
Thanks for this
Thanks for the post and thread... this was my fav 4.4 thus far. I understand school is first. If you have time and make it bootable again please post. Thanks for the work!!

Sent from my KFTHWI using XDA Free mobile app
@Cpasjuste and @ggow, I think you could provide to us your unlocked aboot partition for already rooted users and do not distribute any tools and do not violate any agreements with JCase.
What you think?
Hi ONYXis. I have no agreement with jcase, and I don't like him. The thing is there is a very high risk of brick, I don't think its a good idea. That said I know someone who will look at it and Ill let you know of course.
Intriguing...things certainly moving forward.

How do you not like @jcase? He's a nice guy.
Also, I personally don't care, but I think placeholder threads are not allowed.

I could care not if you liked me or not, but you are full of it saying it has a very high risk of brick. It is down right safe. You don't know how it works, even though details have been public for many months.
If I recall correctly myself or an associate unlocked his before we started getting harassed.
His aboot is no different than the others ones, its not a patched or modified loader, and it will do no good having it.

Not that anyone should really be arguing anyway, but JCase and others are right, placeholder threads are not allowed.
