My CM build: Not coming out due to the LG Optimas Elite having a difficult time getting CM9 or Cm10 to boot and work properly. The LG Optimas just doesn't want to run CM9-Cm10, which is starting to annoy me and rupkin. I think we both moved on to different devices like HTC One V, Galaxy S2, and other devices for now.

Almost commited a fatality with the Elite trying to get CM to work..lol

1/25/2013 Wanted to let you guys know if I don't manage to get CM working on the Elite, than I hope you don't get mad at me. Been putting many hours into this project just to get you guys the taste of the 4.0+ life. The likes and support motivates me want to keep striving forward to get one of these CM builds to work. I am doing this for the community who once made my Elite feel like a whole new device for example Artine and many other wonderful developers, before I made my move to the HTC One V.

Note: Didn't want to get people hopes up only to be sadden.*
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

-Fix backlight flickering and button flickering light issue
-Fix overheating -10% resolved
-Boot up to home screen - ofcourse
