You know what? That's an awesome idea.
That is certainly strange, and in the past there were some issued with the stock messaging app reported by users on even the stock ROM, concerning group texts (especially so if any of the phones send the group texts were using an iPhone). What messaging app are you using? Have you tried any others? Chomp SMS seems to be the leading success story with proper handling of group texts.
Thanks for the feedback and the helpful tool!
Glad to hear that you were enjoying the ROM, and that issue isn't good! There are plenty of tips, many mentioned in this thread already It sounds like either /data was corrupted by an app, or the internal SD card. The solution to that is long and can be a bit messy, but before we begin:
Restoring data should work, provided the step-by-step guide for doing so is followed. It doesn't work for all OEs, but a vast majority of them nonetheless.
It sounds like some wires got crossed after it requested SuperUser permissions - it may be that it wasn't expecting to get a hold before being given a Y/N from SU, and froze accordingly. Have you tried using Samba, with SU set to automatically allow that app SU permissions?
Indeed - MMS will always require a Mobile Data connection, anywhere from 1X - 4G WiMax/LTE. I imagine MMS could be sent over Wi-Fi just fine, but the carriers do need a monopoly somewhere in there, so that's disallowed.
Lol, that is weird about the lack of connectivity to your PC. My best guess would be to re-install the LG drivers, and see if that works Re-flashing the ROM couldn't hurt (you wouldn't need to wipe anything the uninstaller doesn't already take care of), and if all else fails another MicroUSB -> USB cable should work. Unlike with Samsung, generic cables should work fine usually. Without further ado...
Sorry that this post is not, well, light reading. I want to thank everyone in the community again for all of your support, patience, and feedback. You have all been wonderful, helped to create this ROM, and if you need any help just let me know - my PM inbox has quite a bit of room to fill
Thank you.

I can't wait for the final release of sleipnir. It would be cool if the boot up image was the horse and it would blow green smoke out the nose like the pic at the top of the thread
You know what? That's an awesome idea.
Possible Bug? Just had this happen to me. A friend texted a bunch of us (one message to 5 people). I was able to see his message. However, when the others replied, I got blank text messages. The others were able to see the body of the reply texts. Was able to reproduce it every time. Anyone else have this issue?

ignore.. vms network was down in my area. Nothing to do with the rom. By the way if you guys want to check out outages in your area this site is really helpful

I used this ROM for at least 2 months and I loved it. Something happened and it started rebooting. I flashed it fresh again and it just keeps rebooting. I really want it to work again. Any tips?
Glad to hear that you were enjoying the ROM, and that issue isn't good! There are plenty of tips, many mentioned in this thread already It sounds like either /data was corrupted by an app, or the internal SD card. The solution to that is long and can be a bit messy, but before we begin:
- Do you remember what happened just prior to the issue occurring - such as an app updating over Wi-Fi or 3G, while playing a game?
- After the issue happened, did you only flash the ROM .zip file again, to no avail, or were there more steps?
- If there were more steps, what were they?
- Between then and now, were you able to figure out the problem, or does it still persist?
I had the same problem just don't restore ur data nd if u do and its to much for gb to handle it will constantly reboot
Restoring data should work, provided the step-by-step guide for doing so is followed. It doesn't work for all OEs, but a vast majority of them nonetheless.
The problem was samba fileshare app. When it enables, it would cause a reboot. And the app's "wifi whitelist" feature was causing it to enable every time the wifi connects to my home network. That gave it the appearance of an un-ending boot loop.
I've since wiped the data partition, reinstalled all my apps except for samba fileshare, and things seem to have become stable.

Make sure your "^V" data is enabled* I cant send or recieve pics through MMS unless Data 1x-3g is on - doesnt matter if im connected to comcast wifi... Data must be on for the way the data is delivered.
& if you get 0 bars at your house like me your kinda screwed lol -
"Hey Artine" check it > my phone has 14 days under warranty and it wont connect usb to my pc to flash back to stock LOL!
PC doesnt see it at all - charges fine though.. possibly a broken pin or in plug socket that allows send/recieve of data oh well-
I xfer roms to sdcard via my optimus V then flash on the Optimus unElite
going samsung from now on. hopefully ill see ya over there.

- Unfortunately, thanks to the magic of H2O, I no longer have an Optimus Elite. My girlfriend, on the other hand, still has hers. I tried out the Samsung Galaxy Reverb, but couldn't get the screen to stop freezing until a battery pull was done (which is a common bug with that phone, essentially making it completely worthless). That was a deal breaker. I have since moved onto the Samsung Galaxy Victory 4G LTE, adore it, and do plan on developing for it In fact, I already have a name picked out, other ROMs downloaded, analyzed the updater-script and a bunch of the internal workings, weeding out bloatware, etc.
TL;DR: The next device I am moving to/have moved to, and will develop for, is the Samsung Galaxy Victory 4G LTE.
. - @saidiadude; thank you for the question about the gps.conf file being easily editable. That prompted me to do a plethora of research, and I think I have a good idea of what the problem was. I compared the edited file, to the stock file, and those two were then compared to a different modified gps.conf file found on a thread over on XDA-Developers. I've made several changes, and the result will either be that GPS will be broken completely (unlikely, but probable), or that we should get the best of both worlds (hopefully).
- My sincerest apologies for the two week lapse of time for activity - I was laid off from my job on the 7th, so the last two weeks have been rather hectic unfortunately. We're doing okay, though, so minimal worries
- I tried for quite some time to see if I could get the Swipe Notifications feature implemented, to no avail - either there would be an infinite number of force closes, or the entire UI would be mashed down into the app row on the home screen, neither of which made any sense. If someone wants to give the implementation of this feature a shot, feel free and let me know how that goes!
- I'm shooting for tomorrow for the semi-final release of Sleipnir. It will contain:
- A modified gps.conf file.
- Updated Play Store.
A stab at symlinking the dalvik-cache to /cache (previously didn't work, because there wasn't init.d support from the kernel).- Upon further research, it appears as though symlinking the cache would cause issues in and of itself. *sigh*- Should be a system settings button/link in the notifications panel.
- I'll also see about getting busybox and SuperSU updated too.
Fingers crossed!
. - The remnants of my to-do list, for those curious:
- Update Project Mayhem, correct download links.
- Update Hydra.
- Deodexed Sprint build.
- Sleipnir wifi-only.
MD5, SHA-1, and SHA-256 for everything.- Done!- New boot animation - horse head, green fire/smoke (if I can get it figured out, I'll make it happen).
