[ROM][WIP][4.4.2] CyanogenMod 11 KitKat for Optimus S/V

http://forums.androidcentral.com/lg...mod-11-kitkat-optimus-s-v-18.html#post3434220 LatinIME is the biggest. Browser is pretty big too.
You can remove the apps from /system/app and install them with ADB or the file manager to move them to /data and free your /system space for CrossBreeder or whatever.
to increase storage the easy-to-install solution would be mounts2sd from Play. It's supposed to handle system and user apps both.

I have no clue what crossbreeder is or ADB?

CrossBreeder is a speed up/randomizer/adblock flashable zip from xda-developers forum. slick. not required.
ADB is android debug bridge, to install apps or talk to the phone over the usb cable. terminal can be substituted.

What can be done with the low system mem in this ROM? Because the phone auto reboots alot

Also is there any apps you recommend to increase the productivity on this ROM?

Oh dear. This is strange. Over the past couple days, Superuser started acting funny, like it wouldn't work anymore. (Certain apps request SU permission; I would be UNABLE to select Grant, and it would just automatically deny permissions) So, I dirty flashed the ROM again, figuring that would clear it up. Now it's stuck in a bootloop, and even battery pulls aren't helping. Odder still, even one particular bootloop last night got stuck!!

Got a BAD feeling this means having to wipe and start over yet again, lol...

I think your flash memory bites. Invest $25 in a replacement, flash that junk back to stock, and sell it on ebay.

Wow...time to go hunting on evilBay or Amazon, I guess.

Been daily driving it for awhile now. I have Touchpal, battery doctor, running around 480-600 CPU, pandora, rocketplayer, gmail, and banking app installed. Don't have googleservices and it wont fit (could shave space by replacing touchpal, cept I can't live without touch pal.
Launcher 3 kinda stinks, can't figure out how to remove apps or widgets from home screen! plus reboots on the launcher.
Not yet experienced reboot to the phone knock on wood!.
Would love to see more work on the SD card version, or some workaround for the cramped space and launcher fixed. Thinking of installing Zeam launcher though. Least bugs of any ROM as of late, more of sizing than bugs anyway.

not to hijack the thread, but...
There is ongoing work for the OV SD card versions... Skinbark has been busy or hiding out somewhere for a while.
I have a 'sprint fix' zip for my spinoffs... need testers.

I'll see if I can backup my SD card and partition it Sunday. I've got an S.

 

[skinbark]

I've been on vacation, haven't been able to build roms lately. I'm going to try and get my sources updated and do a new build for the S in the next week or so. The S almost needs its own build with kitkat because there's so little space in system, the rom has to be heavily trimmed and optimized in order to run properly. The V has barely enough space but the S really doesn't have enough, you kind of have to jump through hoops. Of course OS2SD completely eliminates the problem, I don't even see a reason to run the regular version.

 

[bigsupersquid]

there is an mms tweak you may need in my repo to get it to send/receive without going into apn settings. No feedback from any Sprint users yet to tell me if it works...
at the end of manifest,
<project path="frameworks/opt/telephony/src/java/com/android/internal/telephony/dataconnection" name="bigsupersquid/frameworks_opt_telephony-src-java-com-android-internal-telephony-dataconnection" revision="cm-11.0" />

is DcTracker with excessive hack (because I got crashes by trying to fix it in the 'right' place that I copied instead) to set initial apn based on a ro. config instead of the mIcc (fake gsm sim card?) setting from software that crashes and doesn't work right.

to cut some Mb and still have a default keyboard available, you can use the hacker's keyboard fork I put up and remove LatinIME from the repo...

I do have an Opti S that was gifted to me, I may activate it with Ting (cheap!) for testing purposes when I get home, hopefully we can get the mms issue sorted out.

mms is working awesome on the V now. I just have no reports of what it does/doesn't do on the S with Sprint service.

Wait, do you need an S on the os2sd build or regular build to test? I haven't gotten around to backing up and repartitioning my SD card but I could always test the regular build.

I think the internal should work, try it with the sprint fix zip

Nope, os2sd stands for "operating system to sd card" its not Optimus V/S specific. Although, you'll need the virgin fix for Skinbarks rom in the first post if you have an optimus V.

I was talking about my build... skinbark's predates the mms fix. I have a sprint fix needs tested, I know my Virgin mms works fine.

I was just being fourm specific, and you're right as well, skinbark's ROM is not as up to date as yours.

There's a work around for that, posted three or four pages back.
