CyanogenMod 11 for the LG F6
Beta release

CyanogenMod is a free, community built, after market firmware distribution of Android 4.4.4 (KitKat), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.

Code:
#include
/*
* Your warranty is now void. *
* We are not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
*/
All the source code for CyanogenMod is available in the CyanogenMod Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to CyanogenMod, please visit out Gerrit Code Review

My source code for the device tree and kernel can be found here

Video of CM11 Running on F6 (thanks rolgar20)



Instructions:

First time flashing CyanogenMod 11 on your device, or coming from another ROM?
  1. Root the device and install ClockworkMod or TWRP Recovery.
  2. Perform a backup of your current ROM.
  3. Perform a factory reset while in recovery
  4. Flash CyanogenMod.
  5. Flash GAPPS

Make sure you set the correct APN for your provider, for mobile data to work (thanks ksjd0414)

Hroark, thanks for giving this a go. If I remember correctly you were the one that did so much with the motion and it was locked tight as hell... Glad to see you are making progress.


yeah, i was using sock puppet accounts back then, cretinoid, and also candoopa

wanted to stay anonymous

This guys lying can do in a matter of days he probably forked mine and dm47021s repo and he is not the first I had a booting build just never uploaded


i got the phone yesterday

started working on the tree this morning

my tree looks nothing like yours or dm4702
it is based on my zte 8x30 tree

me and dm47021 are friends and he knows what I am capable of

Let's all be friends after all it shouldn't matter who is first or who did what , what should matter is how you guys will cross the finish line

Well I'm just pissed because my Ubuntu partition broke some how and now that I think about it we are all trying for the same thing so why not use mine and dm's code to get the WiFi and stuff working

Oh well I'm sorry I just don't know you and you based it off a zte tree how are they related


similar poceesor

if you look at my zte tree

https://github.com/hroark13/zte_msm8x30_cm11

and compare it to my lge f6 tree

https://github.com/hroark13/lge_f6mt_cm11


you will see that they are similar

the major difference is that the zte tree is multi device, I was gonna make it for multiple devices but ended up just doing it for the metis model

it is OK that you do not know me, I dont know you either

but you should not call people a liar, with out doing some research first

i posted links to a video, and tree and a rom, that should be enough evidence for anyone

i want us all to work together and make a Nice cm11 rom, then we can make SlimKat and other AOSP roms

there is a lot of stuff that needs to be fixed in my tree, and I can add you as a collaborator to the github repo if you want

if you have a tree that boots android, and more things work on it, then on mine, I wont have a problem helping you with your tree, and maybe using it instead of mine

but for now im sticking with my tree
