Root [DISCONTINUED] SimplicityXL {Updated 5/17/14}

You're gonna have to find your way back to stock whether it's a past nandroid backup that you have or trick the installer by copying stock build.prop for and replacing it with your current one.

I just added the appropriate ro.lge.swversion line to the build.prop and edited the incremental value to what the installer told me. it works good!! if anybody has that issue, just edit the build.prop to that.

Just download the 2.0.0 zip from the thread and flash it, dont really need to wipe data or cache but it wouldnt hurt;)

The actual ROM zip you uploaded worked, by the way. Everything's in working order, except one thing.

I've noticed every time I choose kitkat theme, everything in the status bar is black and white. But stock theme is original colors. Is this normal? Other than that, everything is a GO so far. Thanks, Chevan.

Yes, this is the normal stock kitkat UI that is seen in 4.4.x

thanks for the ROM chevanlol360 it is amazing!!!! just 2 questions how do you get the kitkat theme and how do you get rid of the LG dialer so i can just use a stock version

What do you mean by KitKat theme? Its in the installer..... Stock or KitKat that's the choice. You can install a custom dialer from the playstore if you'd like, I don't have any options for the dialer.

My phone was starting to go slow i did the update and its fast again. Plus i got my keyboard back. I can never get the overclock feature to stick didnt eork ladt time and with the new app which is sweet still dosent stay at what i srt it to

The temp on your phone is probably too high then. Anything after 97 degrees your phone will start to underclock to limit the amount of heat.
