LOL This will never work... Ever! You cannot port a stock based rom from one phone to another. The apks from the Spirit will make the motion soft brick and vice versa.

Had you asked I would have told you that and saved you the trouble. ;)

Eh... did you use Bella (LG Motion) rom as a base or Katana (LG Spirit) as a base?

If Katana is used (like GT said) it will never work.

I just compared system/lib folder with bella v2 and they are totally different :(

system/etc folder is different too.



You may want to copy these two folders from base rom or bella rom and see if it improves. But I highly doubt it though...



I think it will be better to start from Motion base rom and apply Katana theme instead of starting from Katana and apply Motion libraries.



Good luck!!
