lol same results.

 

[GameTheory]

Well so much for that lol. Hopefully I can get a hold of an F7 from a friend when he upgrades to another phone. Then I can overclock it when/if I get the phone which would be much easier.

I'll update the first post with what works in a little while.

Kernel Updated!

See first post.

This is a non overclock version with init.d added. When ZV5 firmware is released I'll update it to the new firmware.

Be pation i bet is hard w/o having the phone if i had a computer i would be testing too but all i can do is cheer u up lol. Chev n you got this

 

[mrbigv770]

So any particular app needed to remove system apps or any of them will do?

 

[GameTheory]

I use root explorer, but you can use whatever you like.

I flashed my F7 to the unsecured kernel without init.d support. Is it possible to flash init.d support in the android recovery screen instead of 2nd init recovery since 2nd init recovery is no longer accessible?

Yeah that 2nd-init wasn't made for this phone so it doesn't work with loki'd kernels.

You need to install ClockworkMod recovery which was made for this phone...

What performance boost if any can I expect from this kernel, or is it just the same kernel modded? Sorry to question, just kind of want a lil better performance from this chipset...

The features you see in the first post is what you get. For any performance boosts you would have to use init.d scripts. If you guys like you can start a new thread for sharing any scripts you make or find on the web.

I don't own this phone so there's not much I can do for ya.

Nice, I'll get on it and have something for tomorrow afternoon.

Mind uploading it to github and comparing the changes that were made with zv5?

 

[GameTheory]

nvm

 

[logistiker]

nvm

So the ZV5 kernel doesn't work without a loki patch update?

I don't know. I did a ZV5 kernel with a loki workaround and posted it for testing. Three people downloaded it and didn't post back on whether it worked or not. So I removed the link.

Post it again and I'll let you know if it works.

[logistiker]

Nope, it doesn't work. It's a brick. It's the same thing that happens when you try to flash the cwm. It just freezes on the LG logo and doesn't go any further. Looks like we're toast until we can an updated loki patch.

 

[GameTheory]

Yeah once Bliss updates loki for ZV5 we'll be back in business.

Can someone post the build.prop for ZV5?

 

[chevanlol360]

that new zip includes the build.prop

The old bootloader works with the cwm made by playfulgod.

 

[GameTheory]

On the LG Motion I flash the old aboot with the new kernel and that's what works for them without the need to update loki. Is that what you did with PG's CWM?

If so I can easily make a zip for that.

yup, when back to zv4's aboot and it work perfectly with lgs cwm, want me to try the kernel you just made?
