Optimus V: KitKat ROMs?

[androidalais]

It's been so long since i've even booted up my OV. The last ROM i ran on it was Quattrimus. I was just looking through the threads and didn't see any KitKat support. Is this phone dead or has nobody just felt the need to try and port one of the coolest updates since ICS to this amazing little phone.

P.S. I'm running it on my infuse and it is most definitely a very awesome update.

Re: Kitkat

Have a look in the Optimus S section. We've got kitkat ;-)

Hehe, I don't even know if my Optimus V is running a ROM at the moment. Its just sitting in my drawer.

the V forum has been pretty dead except for Mirage support and a few tech issues.
but, yeah, kitkat (CyanogenMod 11 anyway) runs pretty well on the OV except MMS isn't tweaked in yet and Bluetooth isn't quite functional either.
//edit: here, I posted something so now it's up-to-date.

How is the performance and stability compared to Quattrimus or CAI?

It's still pretty new but I'd say it's a pretty close comparison

For those of you who have been running them, what are your opinions and insights about the os2sd version of kitkat on the optimus versus the non-os2sd / regular version of kitkat on the optimus?

Do you notice much of a performance difference? Lag issues? How would you compare them?

Thanks!

the only difference I've noticed is flashing/backup/restore times. the os2sd is faster on those. but I have fast sd cards, which probably makes a big difference.
well, except for installing all the gapps I could find that weren't armv7, and 4 pages of apps from play, on the 2sd version. I dumped that install, as it was early, and haven't got a list of what gapps don't FC. but a full package of all the new ones takes something like 200Mb in /system.
