but there a few things i need to go back and fix.. the camera i know isnt going to work.. i got 3000 lines of error when trying to compile the camera.cpp.. so i commented it tout.. also there were some strings that i was in to much of a rush to add-resource.. and i switched a few things here and there.. i believe once i get most of the stuff cleaned up i can do a build complete through with no errors.. i also need to downgrade my gcc to 4.4 or 4.5 so i can go back and certain things back in the files to compile correctly.. but... it booted.. on the first complete build.. and that makes me happy for now

Booted for me. It's a pain to navigate with it, especially because of my screen protector. Well you guys have made it past one hurdle.

NOTE TO ALL. Make sure you backup the google proprietary system files because you will need to restore those also when you go to restore your system to the prior point of flashing this rom, otherwise you'll get stuck at the LG screen like I was for about 2 minutes trying to figure out why my restore wasn't working. Just an FYI so no one gets screwed by dumb mistakes.

(damn good thing I backed mine up.)
