Great news! Has anyone announced that they will make a custom ROM for our beloved LG O2x?

Yes it will come custom ROM to our phones, there is already a couple of ported versions out to O2x.

....that is a themed gingerbread rom not the real icecream.... how can they base a rom on ICS 4.0 before the src is released....

Same way that the Nexus S has got an ICS ROM.

Interesting. Time to see if 'fastboot flash system' will work.
Guess if the OTA doesn't boot, then the .imgs wont either.
Edit: Argh, slow download. Probably wont have time for a while either then. Still, will give it a shot sometime tonight unless I'm beaten to it.
Edit 2: fastboot fail

Apparently nothing
Someone compiled it, but it does not seem to be a valid image and can't be flashed.

no-one tried flashing it with NVFlash? download the NVFlash from modaco, replace boot.img and system.img with those ICS ones above and maybe that would work? would try myself but I got my phone running sweet at the min and dont want to fudge it up

It seems not all sources have yet been fully released and Google won't release the rest until december. So, I think we'll have to wait a lot longer, I'd say somewhere around June-July to get something usable.

that could help i will maybe try one last time, to get my build environment to work, which would help alot, but somewhere my ubuntu seems to keep bugging me.
ok, just noted it was m-deejay's upload, that will do nothing good. i need the one that was build for the developer device.

So it is possible to flash a custom rom with CWM without touching/unlocking the bootloader ?

many define a custom rom by the option to compile a kernel from source.
we cannot include a modified kernel, without semi-bricking our devices.
but we can change startup and we can init kernel parameters a second time, to allow loading of different services and libraries, which for some is enough to load a customized kernel for graphics mod, removing adware, loading modules and porting cm10,aokp and other roms, like sense or similar miui roms.
i personally believe a port of highly modified rom, is custom. other believe its not a real rom
anyways with the clockworkmod i made its possible, as long as you do the same hijack when needed to change kernel init services or libraries to load.

lack of support from more developers i guess, seems other hardware devices are more popular, and propably much easier to get donations on that on a device with locked bootloaders where development stops at the locked device. today, donations is very popular and driving many towards popular devices.

[DEV][WIP] Porting & Booting Custom Rom via 2nd-Init

Code:
Disclaimer
**This isn't a ROM/anything you can download and install
**This Development Thread for Developer to have their idea's and sharing to get thing working
**I don't own a LG OPTIMUS 4X HD nor do i going to have $$ spent on it (I am not rich)
**I have bad experience with LG phone on the past
**I don't guaranteeing things working for you as i work on this on my free time & what's ETA?=SH1T
**How about a team? It's good if their's people lending a hand but i'm not into a team
As all O4XHD user should have encountering problem encountering Locked Bootloader which halt all the development here.
LG are ignoring user request for unlocking the bootloader for user therefore a effort have carried out to unlocked BL
I looked on a Tegra 3 Beast that doesn't even have any Custom Rom at all (I am shocked) therefore i might tried carry out some
development but as i would said it's slow and don't expect much because i don't own any device to test nor i'm a good developer
With BL Locked we need to do some workaround for the device.
Now starting to collecting data and required info for working on the device.
I need to focus my ongoing project for other device therefore don't expect thing will be done fast as i developing this for a phone i don't own.
What Can You Do?
[*]Post Link Regarding Info Might Be Useful
[*]Share some developer/workaround info
[*]Need some tester (Checkout the requirement)
[*]No ETA's & Trolling (Development Area)
[*]Can help by donating me (maybe getting device for me if thing work)
More to add.

Reserved #2

+1 happy to test have been using custom ROMs for years now. I have been looking to use HTC one x cm9 ROM as a port but I don't really have enough knowledge and have got as far as modifying build prop and kernel but not sure if it will get any where because of boot loader. Good luck sounds like you have more experience than me.

i know i can do nothing but a little support and a thank for you

I saw from another thread, that you already found the leaked bootloader.Because I'm entirely inexperienced with the Android ecosystem (and Linux in general), I can't offer much of help, but I'm willing to be a beta-tester if you cook up something!

There was some work to get CM9 running on the device using 2nd-Init. Im going to look into 2nd-init a bit more, and try booting a htc one x CM9 on this which might only just work.

I suppose you already found these?

Same goes here.
I am trying 2nd-init and as i don't have this device i can't progress.
Still looking in holes that can get us something.
CWM isn't complete as it doesn't really complete flashable(maybe)
but thanks for other for the link.
Any 2nd-init related thread are required to study more better on 2nd-init function.

Looks like you're abit too late bud. We had a fund raiser to give the money to a dev to work on the phone. Its already been claimed by kholk and I "think" that he's doing what he can. Its just your luck you didn't contact us first. If I'm not wrong, about 500-600 euros was given to kholk

Yeah, but kholk is working on unlocking the bootloader. He might not succeed, so it's great if more devs are interested and have a look at 2nd-init (which works quite well on older Motorola devices, such as Milestone and Defy).

I will look on it but then it doesn't mean a smooth progress.
Just helping here.

some hints to get resolved.
bootup "wallpaper" binary is started by lg.early.rc which checks for DRM binaries are where they should be in /system/lib and /vendor/lib folder, which normally would exclude any option for refreshing those at bootup.
bootup init files replace and removed if you use 2nd-init and it will reload the same binaries and you might get locked up, if its not cleaned.
modem binaries: they require some authentication it seems to get enabled, i did not find out what triggers it but using logcat -b radio did not help much on my OneX build.
wifi: LG have already compiled the kernel with the wifi driver built-in, which Means the libhardware_legacy, needs to skip the stage to insmod the wifi driver, it can be tricky or you need a workaround reloading the BTHID kernel module, to get around it.
for the wallpaper binary, you can always run it from Shell checking if you touched or removed liblgdrm or libdrmframework files, as it will Lock bootup, but thats only if you got the device in your hands, otherwise testers need to prepare to use the original kdz files and reflash Again, spending alot of time on nothing
using Mount -obind to get around replacing the files needed is the trick to replace lib supposed to be in /system/lib at bootup, using "ln -s" to point to a different bind'd folder when you actually can do it (from like a vold wrapper or so)
thats all hints i can come up with for now.

talked to some guys whom done 2nd Init.
They said aren't impossible but i am not sure they can help on this project.
I can't do much,don't have O4X for testing as well.
this the part of updates here

i do not believe anyone can do much without the o4x remote, especially when playing with 2nd-init and bypassing security and trying to improve.
it will probably die before it starts getting to boot
initially i seemed to be the only one getting a custom modded port working on o4x and i needed the device to get that far and as you said previously you will not ask for another contributed device, so it might just stop with our premodded recoveries by 2nd-init and maybe be leaked cm10 i did in another thread. (although not worth much)

Create a rom with a second init is the best option?A new rom ICS installed via cmw with the same kernel...
create a vanilla version (,a clean version,stile Nexus),for example a v10H, deodexed, without Lg programs and useless programs. I Believe the users like it a clean version, fast ,and powerful.

Would be interested in a stripped and tweaked version of stock, vanilla style ics. If it's do able?

As far as I know, no one has really been dippin into JB to Dev a ROM or two. I believe there is someone in the CWM/TWRP thread saying that they are going to attempt to Dev a Stock ROM for the time being. kind of like a Hybrid JB/KK style ROM. not sure if he'll have time to do so from what he was postin.
