Hello everybody!
Sorry for the huge delay of releasing this stuff - although it only got a little better. Consider this as my last contribution to this forum as I won't use the LG Optimus 2X as my daily driver anymore - starting from the next days the come. The sealed "Sony Xperia Z1 Compact" is lying for about a month now on my desk, because I didn't want to carry it with me during my holidays. It also took so long, because I have screwed up quite a few things on the last zip files I've created. Nevertheless... see this thread as my personal "goodbye" ROM.
Most of this stuff is based on pengus77's work, kudos, greetings and huge thanks to him for all of his work! And as we all know that stuff is based on CyanogenMod (so thanks also fly out to the whole dev team, especially Ricardo Cerqueira) and would not be possible without Linux (kudos to all people contributing to it and to the front man, Linux Torvalds).
Here it goes...
Do not try to flash this ROM when you are on the old bootloader! This won't work and support for it is not planned!
I DON'T TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILTY FOR DATA LOSS OR ANY DAMAGE CAUSED TO YOUR DEVICES. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK AND BACKUP YOUR FILES BEFORE USING THE FILES!!!
WHO SHOULD INSTALL THIS ROM?
If you want to be on the bleeding edge - avoid it completely. Period. I have created and used several "evolutions" or "versions" of this ROM over a year now, because I want to have a stable phone with every bit working out of the box... and the closest one to this state was the CM10 of pengus77. Kudos grand maester pengus!
I was nearly satisfied with version 20130106, but especially versions 20130208 and 20130514 caused a few hot reboots and sometimes also longer device reboots. Then there was also the problem of the Launcher not residing in the memory (i.e. if you press the home button the phone needs to reload the launcher and for a couple of seconds no icons are there and so on). That's why I've chosen 20130106 as ROM base, backported some changes and configured / modified the ROM how I liked it. Still interested? Then read on...
PREREQUISITES:
* An external SD Card (I'm not kidding!)
* New Bootloader
* Clockworkmod Recovery (recommended version: v6.0.2.5), the steps above have not been tested with TWRP (consider this as a "not supported, but it might work")!
If one of the last two requirements have not been met, see the following thread (with grand maester spyrosk's tool it's easily possible to switch from the old to the new bootloader and also to flash CWM): [TOOL] All-In-One ToolKit (by spyrosk)
LIST OF INCLUDED FILES:
Code:
PASSWORD: forxda
0-new_easy_upgrade_wipe_0.5n_ext4.zip
0-new_full_wipe_0.5n_ext4.zip
1-ed_nw-cm-10-20130106-UNOFFICIAL-p990-newbl-ver5pub.zip
2-gapps-jb-20121011-rmTalk.zip
3-kk-exp-20130505-121-newbl-rmKowMgrApp.zip
3-kk-exp-20130727-126-newbl-rmKowMgrApp.zip
3-kowalski-kernel-100p5-newbl-rmKowMgrApp.zip
SHORT EXPLANATION OF THE FILES:
* 0-new_easy_upgrade_wipe_0.5n_ext4.zip: It wipes system (ext4), cache (ext3) and clears the dalvik-cache on data! Short story: Use this file if you are coming from any of pengus77's CM10 ROMs or you want to reflash this ROM without losing the data.
* 0-new_full_wipe_0.5n_ext4.zip: It wipes system and data (both ext4) and cache (ext3) Short story: Use this if you are already on the new bootloader and you want a clean install of this ROM.
** Long story of both previous files: See this thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1414440
* 1-ed_nw-cm-10-20130106-UNOFFICIAL-p990-newbl-ver5pub.zip: The fifth release (ver5) of the public version of the ROM. It's massively edited and doesn't wipe anything (nw). (See the changelog for any changes made to pengus77's version.)
* 2-gapps-jb-20121011-rmTalk.zip: The recommended gapps (=Google Apps) package without the Talk.apk (rmTalk), source: goo.im
* 3-k*-newbl-rmKowMgrApp.zip's: Three versions of pengus77's kernels I've used most. Currently I use the 126 version, which I also recommend to everybody else, who want's to try this "stuff". Last but not least: The rmKowMgrApp of course stands for "removed Kowalski Manager App". If you want to use any other pengus kernel with this ROM, you should remove the Kowalski Manager App as well from the kernel.
** As I already hear most people scream regarding the last sentence a further explanation of this: pengus77's kernels always come with the famous Kowalski Manager App (made by wfd). Of course... once a newer version of the app was released and you want to re-try the older kernel, but keep the new Manager app... this is NOT possible. That's why I've always removed ALL of the apps from the kernels, because I see this as the ROM's responsibility - not a kernel one. Of course you couple then the ROM together with the Kowalski Kernel, but without this latter kernel our P990 is crap anyway... so, who cares?
INSTRUCTIONS:
Code:
1. Download the *.7z file from a mirror below and extract it with the following PASSWORD: forxda
2. Place the files anywhere on your /sdcard/
3. Reboot into CWM recovery
4. Installation procedure:
* Flash the files in the correct order starting from zero (0) to three (3).
* Beware which files from the zeroes you use, because the full_wipe will clear your data whereas the easy_upgrade_wipe won't do that.
* If you are unsure which files from the threes you use, stick with the 126 version for now.
5. done :)
6. Reboot and have fun! ;) As always: Warning, the first boot might take a while...
CHANGELOG:
Code:
[U]2014-09-08:[/U] Added two attachements to this thread, which make it possible to swap
the SDcards (use [b]ext1st[/b] if you want the external card to be your first card [default
for this ROM] or [b]int1st[/b] if you prefer it the other way around.
[U]2014-08-07:[/U] My old stuff v0.1
+ CM10 ROM: First public ROM release, the following changes have been made to pengus77's 20130106 version (Lights Fest):
- [color=red]changed the services.jar that the Launcher resides in memory[/color]
- swapped sdcard and sdcard1, so an external sd card is mandatory when trying this ROM
- added "telephony.test.ignore.nitz=true" to build.prop
- removed "format(...)" from updater_script, either the full_wipe or the easy_upgrade_wipe have to be used
- removed 240p videos
- removed superuser.apk and replaced it with the supersu.apk and the corresponding su binary
- replaced roboto's font with the ubuntu font
- included a modded Mms.apk for nicer smileys and also included two CM10 skins (AlphaBlueMod and Resistance) with the same modded smileys
- updated apollo.apk to newest version
- included the following well known apps: KowalskiManager.apk, newest (to date) TricksterMod.apk, QMemobin.apk and PDroid_Release.apk
- [strike]better defaults for Kowalski Manager App[/strike]
- added the following other apks to /system/app: BatteryBar.apk, FDroid.apk, FasterGPS.apk, RealCalc.apk and the best app ever: Tricorder.apk
- last but not least... added the following stuff of pengus77's later ROM releases (i.e. 20130208 and 2013014):
* updated wpa supplicant 8
* updated dhcp daemon
* added iwconfig/iwlist
* added alsa_amixer / alsa_ctl / alsa_aplay
* added libjpeg-turbo from Linaro Android
* enabled Purging of Assets in performance -> memory menu
************************************************************
+ CM10only gapps:
- removed talk.apk (-rmTalk)
+ Kowalski kernel(s):
- removed KowalskiManager (-rmKowMgrApp)
RECOMMENDATIONS:
1) Recommended basebands are... either v30a or v30b. I still can't decide which one works better, but I'm using v30b again for a few months now and I'm quite happy with that.
2) If you use a whole lot of apps, I would increase the /data partition to 2GB, which can be done through spyrosk's great All-In-One Tool.
3) If you have ever flashed a su660 baseband after switching to the new bootloader I urge you to clear the calibration data (I was able to fix the 3g->wifi->3g transition changes with that and it also reduced the battery usage of the phone). Read more in the following thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2075564
4) The matching blue color for Resistance's CM skin is in hex: #078982 (I've used this for the BatteryBar's blue.)

KNOWN BUGS:
- Unfortunately the better defaults for the KowalskiManager App don't stick. This was my last change to the ROM and the app does not seem to like the permissions to be set to owner and group system. As I have no clue which uid gets applied for the app I don't know how to easily fix this.
(nevertheless... see the attached Screenshots for the defaults I recommend)
INTERESTING FINDINGS:
- The P990 is capable of handling 128GB microsd cards (for those, who would need to buy a bigger sd card). I have bought it for the Sony Xperia Z1 Compact, which is able to handle it as well.
(see the attached screenshot as a proof, made on the P990)
DONATIONS:
Regarding donations thank you, but keep in mind, that tonyp, pengus77 or spyrosk did a lot more than me for our beloved phone...

Oh goodness... I completely forgot to reply to this message - sorry for that. As "quick settings" is a feature of Android 4.2 there is no easy way to bring it to Android 4.1 and as I mentioned: this ROM is designed to just work - so adding a crippled version of quick settings won't happen.
@ everybody: I finally found the time to finish the op. Now everything should be correct and in place. Just a hint: See the second post of the thread, which may be useful for some of you out there.
Consider this as: job done. And my last regular appearance in the LG subforum... concluding this era by quoting Linus' words: "nVidia, F*** YOU!"

Announcement: I highly suggest you flash void. - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=887281
Well, here's one more ROM for you guys: Prime. (Optimus Prime, hell yea!)
It will be the twin brother of my other ROM, Megatron. However, whereas Prime will be focused on stability, Megatron will go for raw power and performance instead.
That being said, this is a ROM based on the 2.2.1 firmware where bugs like the sdcard unmount were supposedly fixed. It has been cleaned of most of the crap and has also been tweaked with the usual h4x. I daresay it's the most stable ROM for LG P500 so far. If you want a speedy one, check out Megatron.
Features:
v2:
extended apn repository
tweaked values for mmf
there was one more thing but I forgot
v1:
root + superuser
APKs deodexed + zipaligned
apps2sd + dalvik2sd
performance tweaks: (JIT, hardware acceleration, etc)
applications removed: Twitter, Facebook, LG Home, Think Office, Netlog, Twitter, Music and Video player and some other craps [4]
applications added: Doubletwist (to play music and video), File Manager (imported from CM), Message Flasher (blink the physical buttons when you have sms unread) and the awesome LauncherPro
added tri tone notification sound and marimba ringtone (imported from iPhone)
changed boot animation to a more cute one
fixed buggy WiFi
fixed lag
Requirements:
In order to flash this ROM, you'll need on your device:
Having read the feature list above
Root (check thread)
Drellisdee's custom recovery (check thread)
Class 4 SDcard or higher (bench it with h2testw)
Prime (download it here)
How to flash:
First, reboot into recovery via 3-button-combo, ADB, terminal, w/e.
Partition SDcard (swap: 0, ext: 512)
Wipe data (data,cache,dalvik-cache,ext).
Connect the device to PC, copy Prime over to the SDcard, disconnect.
Flash it via "flash zip from sdcard"
Reboot
Read important notes below
That's it.
Important notes:
* If you have problems running any h264 video or game, it is probably due to stagefright. To correct this, grab the application root explorer somewhere. Run it and give it superuser permissions. Go to /system/build.prop. Click r/w button. Long click on build.prop and select "open with text editor". Look for some line that talks about stagefright-player. Switch to false. Save and exit (menu button). Reboot.
* Do not flash the custom kernel or any other tweak.
* Miss CarHome? Download it here. Miss Thinkfree Office? Download it here.
* Can't partition your sdcard? Flash anyway and download this app: http://www.appbrain.com/app/a2sd-froyo-root/net.meliantq.a2sdFroyo (credits: zeule)

Battery life?
Why no tweaks?

Noejn,
I'd be interested in this ROM without the apps2sd; is there a way you could release two different versions or allow us to choose between 'with' and 'without' apps2sd? (for instance, if the sd isn't partitioned correctly, just disable apps2sd)
thanks...
One of requirements is rooting using Super One Click, but does it work already with V10e? If it doesn't, can you kindly suggest a ROM that works with V10e?
well right now i test every rom that u build noejn another great one thumps up thx
noejn, I have a request, share black status bar for this ROM, if not difficult. Thx.
ext3 or ext4 needed?
GJ. I will test this later tonight.

Since V10e can't be rooted for now, you'd have to downgrade to v10b using KDZ Updater. v10b (Philippine version) -> http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGP500/ATCIBK/V10b_00/V10B_00.kdz. After downgrading, root with your preferred rooting app. Then install Drellisdee's custom recovery and then just follow Noejn's "How to Flash".
I was thorn between Megatron and Amberhome, but really, how cool is being OPTIMUS PRIME?, works flawlessly so far, .
Can someone please provide system.img data.img and boot.img for this rom ?
Thanks !!!

Well, apps2sd is one of the major features. Most likely you're the only soul who wants a version without it. However, when I find the time, I'll make a version a2sd free for you. If you don't feel like waiting, just google on how to remove the symlink.

I'll quote myself:
However, the base is no less important. Void's core is stripped of most applications, widgets and along with its pure black theme, I couldn't think of a name for the ROM other than precisely just: void. I've also picked 2.2 for this. It's faster and as stable as 2.2.1 (since it didn't fix the SDcard unmounts).

Extended APNs (won't cover the whole globe but won't be far)

First of all I want to congratulate you for your hard work. I can call this a piece of art.
Can we tweak a little bit the status bar, and notifications ? It would be much easier to read if it was like the HTC, or Gingerbread for example.
L.E: I tried something here, don't know if it works because I haven't flashed this ROM yet.
I have modified the framework from void.theme-module.
Could you please give it a test Noejn ? (I suppose you have a emulator)
DO NOT APPLY UNTILL TESTED !!!
Noejn I HATE you!!!! WHY YOU DIDN'T COME WITH THIS GREAT STUFF ONE DAY BEFORE?
Yesterday at night I just installed Prime from Megatron because I wanted to try your second ROM even that it haven't exactly what I want same as Megatron haven't. Now, you came with this!! Why you done that to me?
Anyway, really thanks for your work!! I will definitely test it!! But I haven't time now....
Thank you!!
Wow, this looks really awesome, if only i didnt flash and configured my device again yesterday..., this is for sure the next rom i am going to try next.
Nice job and thanks Noejn!

YES!! Same like me.
Is it normal to only have 156MB free space with base only? I wiped everything before installing. Or should i have mounted everything in the recovery menu and after that wipe?
LE: it's fixed now. after reboot i now have 192mb with gapps + a2sd + kernel oc.
Interesting! I was hesitant to try Prime because I didn't want to lose all the apps you stripped from it, but here you provide a way of getting them back When I have a bit more time on my hands I'll try this ROM out, thanks!
EDIT: by the way, would the sapps zip also work in prime (after removing the unwanted apps)?
@Noejn
Is there any way I can tweak this ROM to use ad-hoc wireless AP's when connecting to the internet?
By the way, Noejn...
If you open one of the zips (e.g. the sapps one), and remove the unwanted apks from it, will it still work? or do we have to do anything else to it? (e.g. 'zip align' or ?)
Wow... You're the best Noejn! I'll try this rom now

* I am the creator of SkyHigh ROM for P6810 model and have decided to spare some of my valuable time to further help out our P6800 brothers and sisters. I DO NOT USE THIS DEVICE, and rely on YOU to give constructive feedback (good or bad) and let me know how you went.
* It took A LOT a lot of reading, research and trial & (many) errors to get to this stage, so I hope you like this official release and please rate the thread and my efforts accordingly. I take no claim to any mods in this build, and borrow ideas and tweaks from other sources. I just piece them together to make it work.
* This is a FIRST JB RELEASE, and I will endeavour to release future updates ...... NO ETA's
* You may modify this ROM for personal use, but I will not answer posts or PM’s regarding any related issues to this other than those options in Aroma Installer . I just don't have the time to debug your own mods or others such as PimpMyROM without device, and in any case, they should be posted in the appropriate thread.

How to Install :
Disclaimer: Flash this ROM and its mods/tweaks at your own risk. However unlikely, YOU are solely responsible for any potential damage to your device or data. Do not flash unless you know what you are doing, are capable of reading, following instructions and using ADB or Odin to help recovery of a soft brick.
1. Require a custom recovery such as CWM or TWRP (suggest TWRP to prevent/reduce Aroma freezing during install - refer post #3)
2. Backup User apps and data with Titanium Backup Pro app or other method and save off-device
3. Save ROM to EXTERNAL sdcard (not sure if will flash from internal sdcard yet)
4. Boot into custom Recovery
5. NANDROID BACKUP & KEEP COPY ON PC !!
6. Flash v1.0.1 (select wipe data option) and reboot
7. Be patient, first boot will take a while !
8. Initial setup & check install “unknown apps” in phone settings
9. Restore User apps and data from Titanium, Wi-Fi settings etc (GREEN & YELLOW normally OK)
10. DO NOT restore any SYSTEM apps or data in RED colour with Titanium Backup
12. Reboot, setup accounts (if not restored in Step #9/10) & allow the ROM to “bed in”
* If you experience any issues with the ROM, flash ROM again with WIPE DATA option and check BEFORE doing anything else
* I don’t have the time to help posts in this thread unrelated to the ROM and if you have not followed any of the above instructions!

Languages :
v1.0.1 DXMD3
* As released by Samsung for SE Asia http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41319345&postcount=458
* Will more language support be added? NO, I am not a translator, and only if the newer base released by Samsung natively supports it !
Titanium Backup problems? :
* Try an older version : http://matrixrewriter.com/android/
Aroma Installer Freeze :
* Use TWRP Recovery instead of CWM
* Or, if need be, use volume rocker to navigate & power button to select options
* Instructions are here: [RECOVERY] TWRP 2.4.4.0 touch recovery [2013-03-12]
1) Install GooManager from the Play Store
2) Open GooManager and provide root permissions
3) Hit Menu (or the button with the 3 dots on your screen) and then Install OpenRecovery

ROM Bugs - Not firmware bugs !! :
* Wait and see.........
Will flashing this ROM wipe my data? :
* NO it won't wipe your data, but data wipe is a requirement in Aroma to ensure a bug free device. Just backup data and nandroid first.
* Installer will auto wipe : system, cache, dalvik-cache & preload
* If updating from a different ROM or android build/version, it is a requirement that you follow the installation instructions fully in Post #2 and read the notes below it!
* If after flash & boot you have some unused "green android shortcuts" on your home screens, just delete them. This means that you didn't do the requested data wipe did you:? Give yourself a slap !
Entropy Lag "Fix" :
* I created the script sourced from info here
* No need for using Seeder app and less overhead
* To check it's working :
Run android terminal emulator app
su
entro
You should see a figure around 3600 (possibly more), meaning it's working
Video & HDMI out :
* HDMI out to external display works as released by Samsung
* Natively, not all video codecs are compatible through stock video player. You may need to install a codec supported video player app from Google Play. Try without the ARMv7 add-on first
Battery Life & Performance :
* Give the ROM time to build its caches and “bed in” etc.
* Battery % reporting may need to be re-calibrated
1. Use your device to NEAR zero % (ie. 2%)
2. Fully recharge uninterrupted
3. Unplug when 100%
* Actual drain really depends on your own configuration, and has nothing to do with this ROM.
Some Tips :
* Lower screen brightness and time-out
* Check apps running in background, unneeded auto-starting apps, auto-sync, GPS, wifi, rogue apps etc
BetterBatteryStats is a good app for checking wakelocks.
* Remove or freeze unwanted System apps (bloatware), disable animations (you will lose CRT off animation until re-enabled), motion etc
Mods & Apps :
* I have not seen or measured any negative impact to ROM performance or stability on my P6810 model (or reported by P6800 User during test phase), so any potential improvement (no matter how slight), is still an improvement.
* Any in-depth discussion is to be addressed in the respected threads, links are in found in the Credits & OP
AGPS :
1. Open internet connection
2. Use "GPS Status" app (menu/tools/manage agps state/download) and then wait for first fix.
3. ++ After that, subsequent fixes should be much faster ++
4. Try and see how location locks in Maps

Thanks for your kind words. I'm really just an experienced user who turned his hand to cooking. There are real Devs such as daniel doing an excellent job also.
I'm just hoping it installs >> boots >> everything installs/works as it should. I played around with the aroma config and updater-scripts, so high risk for error. Also, a lot of optional apps are symlinked to the preload partition. From there, the plan is to move on to further mods. Most will most likely be a flashable patch (until working), and then integrate into the next release.
Step-by-step.

Yes this is an updated build from the one I posted in the 10.2 thread
A quick pointer to the PA Gapps thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942
There's a lighter version of the Gapps package there if you don't use so many of the Google services, and it should always have links to up to date versions.
Don't forget to format your system partition and re-flash the whole ROM if you are changing between GApps versions, or you may have some leftovers from the previous version.
Wrong Thread......
testing the 11-11 built. Seems like there is a problem accessing files on the /storage/emulated/legacy (or 0).
Can't delete anything. Can't modify anything... but you can browse... Read Only almost like?
Thanks for quick work !
Code:
set_metadata_recurcive : some changes failed (status 7)
Even with a cwm 6.0.4
I'll update to the build from nov 11th in the next hours and going to give a feedback later too.
@sbrissen: maybe it does make sense to add my cwm6044.tar.md5 to the first post?! Or at least your img-file.
Edit: what's the difference between pa_gapps-full-4.4-20131111-signed.zip and gapps-kk-20131031.zip?

Posted my heimdall in the OP, can you just shoot up a link to your odin copy?
The difference that I've noticed in the 2 are the PA gapps have the "OK google" feature. Maybe they both do but I noticed it after flashing the PA gapps
That's what I just did:
- boot into recovery (rename the attached file to recovery.tar.md5 and flash it with odin) (or download it from here: https://mega.co.nz/#!J18HxR7C!WJMuYhLvpYCPlN-giWs2u0Sr4wRzgBvajTNOP_L5gyU)
- "format /system"
- "format /cache"
- flash cm_n5110-ota-sbrissen_11-11.zip
- flash pa_gapps-full-4.4-20131111-signed.zip
Issues:
- back- and menu-button are not working (sometimes I can close popup-messages with the back-button)
- /storage/emulated/0 not writeable (as already stated by mbze430)
- gallery is not working
- no screenshots
- screen goes a bit crazy during rotations
Edit: I tried to install Root Explorer via the Play Store, but no keyboard showed up. Voice search did work. After I have started Root Explorer and set / to be rw the back- and menu-buttons are working and the keyboard showed up too.
PA GAPP definitely good for ART.. However one of the most important tool "TiBu" doesn't work with ART. That is like the biggest "WTF". lmfao. Seems like ConfigUpdate has been taken out from this new release.
Do we REALLY need torch.apk ? lol
Will the CM team ever accept this as an official? Would love to see nightlys
EDIT1: Almost ****ted in my pants... ExtSdCard is reading empty on the device... but I checked it with a PC... everything is there... so ExtSdCard isn't being read correctly? Also seems like Android 4.4 is dumping all kinds of txt files in the ExtSdCard. It is being recognized as "/mnt/media_rw/sdcard1" in Solid Explorer??
EDIT2: Definitely something is wrong with the partition permissions... Viper4Android no longer can write to the /system partition with 11-11 built.

Checking the extSdCard issue now. CM just forked my repos last night, I'll start the process to get 10.2 nightlies going. They have not start 11.0 nightlies for any devices yet.
I can also confirm the sdcard not being writable. I'm thinking between that and the extSdCard strangeness perhaps the storage just gets mounted weirdly upon boot.
In addition, it seems to me that long pressing the home button no longer brings up the recent apps drawer.
This version installed without a hitch and aside from the SD card issue, works great!
Also, not that important but Im just curious- why can't I get the launcher looking like kitkat? It still retains jelly bean look even after third party launchers and what not.
Thanks and when the funds allow I'd be glad to donate!
Hi guys! First of all thanks a lot sbrissen for your work!!!! I've been waiting for CM working on my Note8 since I bought it.
Two questions I have:
- When it will be available to download from CM official site.
- Does all the s-pen features work with this build? (by features I mean the quick access, aerial preview, etc)
Thanks again!

Simple answer is no. From the way things look, it will never. You will need 3rd party apps to get some of those features back

SCREENSHOTS:
COMING SOON
INSTALLATION:
Update your device to at least 20o first!
Download the rom, and put it on your external card
Download version fixes
Reboot into recovery (ONLY TWRP IS SUPPORTED)
Backup -> /system, /data, /boot (optional, but always a good idea)
Wipe -> Format Data (3 times)
Wipe -> Select System & Cache (3 times)
Install -> browse to find the rom and select it, also select the version fix, then swipe to flash
Reboot
- It will reboot again on its own... this is normal... if it goes back to recovery, you did something wrong. check your download, double check you wiped correctly, etc...
First boot can take up to 20 minutes, have patience (it should be closer to 5-10 minutes though)
Wait about 5-10 Minutes before setting up
Profit
DATA RESTORE
I've had good luck restoring my /data partition by doing the following after first boot. I cannot and will not guarantee that this will work for you, so you do this at your own risk
Reboot to Recovery
Tap Settings
Check "Use rm -f instead of formatting", then back
Tap Restore
Check /data only
Swipe to restore

- - - - NOTE: Could not de-odex Google Services
- - This should NOT effect performance in any way
- - - If you do experience a little lag (it should be extremely minor out of the box, if any at all [note, I do not experience any lag], there are a couple things you can do to make this better
- - - - Turn animations down to .1x
- - - - Disable scrolling cache
- - First boot will take a long time... upwards of 20 minutes. I would highly suggest that after the first boot occurs you let it sit and cool down for at least 10 minutes BEFORE even setting it up.
- - - You will also need to let it site after you flash Xposed, or any time you feel you need to clean your Dalvik
- - This will allow more customizations to be possible and should be a bit lighter on RAM usage. It also shrinks the amount of space taken up in the /system partition, it also should improve your battery life (your usage will vary)

TBH
Don't know. LOL
Only updates I have gotten are the software updates (or rather downloads) that I took out of the rom.
Did you happen to notice what the version was for your OTA?

No prob MEGA is @ 97% so that'll get updated very soon
EDIT: Just checked on tmobile's website (and LG's). Latest update was the update to 20p.

Once you flash this rom, you'll be at 20p as well

I don't see version fixes to download. Apparently I need that cause I flashed and it didn't boot. Stayed on LG screen.

Fix is uploaded (3rd post), but has no bearing on booting.
What is your device? Did you clean flash as per the 'Installation' in OP (this makes a very big difference, since I resize the system and data partitions)? Did you flash anything else with the rom?

What is the md5sum of the file you downloaded? It should match the one on the AFH website.
