Would this work on MPCS version of F6?

Would this work on MPCS version of F6?

This does work on MPCS version, but it will just be T-Mobile branded. This is also running the older firmware version. You might have to downgrade using the unbrick method and then you can flash this.

Has anybody had any luck installing this? I've tried putting it both on internal storage and the SD card but the recovery I'm using can never see the files.

However, if I go to "install zip from sdcard" I can see the contents of the card. I think, maybe, the backup and restore function is looking in /sdcard when in reality that is the internal storage for this phone and the real SD card is at /external_sd. I tried putting the files on the internal storage, but for some reason /sdcard won't mount in the recovery.

This is probably a noob question, but can I just zip these files and install them that way?

edit: Turns out my recovery expected the files to be in /clockworkmod/backup and this download had them just in /clockworkmod. If anybody else having trouble, give that a try. I am booting into this rom as I type.

Everything seems fine and I appreciate some of the stock apps being ripped out, but the WiFi tether you included crashes whenever I try to turn it on.

edit3: One last update. The app "WiFi Tether- TrevE Mod" crashes like I mentioned previously, but the built in (T-Mobile) Wi-Fi tether is working, though I'm not paying for the service. Is that how you intended it OP?

Has anybody tried doing to OTA update to D50010h? I don't want to do the update and lose tethering for some reason.

This ROM is exactly what I needed! Thanks.

I am however having issues getting google calendar to work.

I downloaded google calendar but there is no sync option for calendar under account settings so none of my events come up.

I think the root cause could be that we are missing the "calendar storage" app.

Does anyone have any ideas? Maybe if someone could backup their empty "calendar storage" so I can try to restore it?

Help is greatly appreciated. The calendar functionality is really important to me.

hello but this is a stock rom?

 

[MLGJ]

From my understanding, it is stock ROM with a few things removed and added.

Is anyone else experiencing google calendar issues with the ROM? I would really appreciate for my calendar to sync up.

 

[dollar206]

someone has installed

 

[MLGJ]

I have installed it and everything works great. I am however having trouble with the Google calendar as mentioned above. Does anyone have any input on that?

 

[giovannye]

Has anyone flashed this over the d50010h update??

 

[giovannye]

Successfully?

 

[giovannye]

Would this work on the new ota?

 

[FeOnyx26]

I feel like because this rom doesn't have the lg calendar, thats why this rom is having trouble with syncing, it is impossible for the phone to create a local calendar without the lg calendar app. Uninstalled for this reason.

 

[MLGJ]

Do you have an alternative rom? The missing calendar is killing me

 

[giovannye]

Will this work on the updated firmware 10h.???

Is this rom Deodexed?

 

[GameTheory]

Is this rom Deodexed?

No it's not deodexed. This is a cwm backup of the stock rom rooted with some apps added in and some removed.

Deodexing is useless to the end user and can make the rom slower. The only advantage to de-odexing is for a developer/themer to be able to easily modify an apk. A zipalingned rom with its odex files can be faster and smoother than a deodexed rom...
