5.0 being pushed out to the international variant of the G3 in Poland.

Still may be Dec. before it hits US Carriers.

Catch 22 for me....going to be a bit before the stock G3 on 5.0 is rooted and bootloader unlocked. I won't put myself into that position to take the OTA or side load and be locked down.

Bump! is supposed to be released today so current 4.4.4 AOSP builds can be Bumped and stock custom G3 roms can be flashed.

Yeah, dnw OTA. I read something about Bump making its way to the G2 for some reason. We can already flash allthethings so

I'm running the Dirty Unicorns ROM just for the hell of it. So far so good.

L on the N7 is pretty nice. I'm still using the second dev preview for now. There are 3 or 4 AOSP source-built ROMs available already, I may flash one later today.

Do need Xposed to work with L/ART or for CM/AOKP/PA/etc to start building 5.0 ROMs with goodies built in.

At least the ElementalX kernel for the N7 works with 5.0. Gotta have my dt2w

[M.B Co]

I'm sure the first releases of 5.0 will be bare bones compared 4.4x

Oh ya!

On a lot of G2 threads I see people mention "loki" like "It has been lokified." I think it's something very similar to Bump. Technically my bootloader is still locked but I can still flash allthethings because of a lokified recovery or whatever. Idk the details.

Bump faq:

How is Bump different from Loki?
Bump works on LG devices that have Loki patched. There is no need to downgrade your firmware to use Loki anymore.

The only part of Bump that sounds kinda is that you have to flash via ADB. I wonder if that makes any parts of TWRP unusable.

[M.B Co]

Using this adb method TWRP works normal as if you flashed the recovery image file. Using adb isn't bad, went quick and easy.

Bump also is needed to flash anything that doesn't have the stock kernel or it won't boot. Or....you can fastboot. This is a method to get around it.

So any future AOSP or other rom without a LG stock kernel will need to be "Bumped"

[stonehenge]

So if it uses a stock kernel you can flash it with TWRP (which was Bump'd) but if it's non-stock kernel then you need to use ADB to flash it (because it had to be Bump'd)?

[M.B Co]

Somewhat, If it's stock kernel it doesn't need to be bumped. Just flash via recovery. If it's not a stock kernel said rom will need to be bumped.

I believe that is correct.....

From what I've read you can use TWRP just fine without doing the bump method. Their terminology is hard to understand sometimes in the threads as they say it multiple times about different things.

AOSPA Bumped for D855. Shouldn't be too much longer until builds start showing up for all variants

So the Nexus6 isn't available through TMo yet, but they have it listed as coming soon and one idiot already left a review:

"Very Poor Quality , Quite Big hard to handle , Once Screen broken cost you a lot money to repair will Not recmond"

lol ok idiot.

It's a Moto, poor build quality is HIGHLY unlikely. The big argument sure. The broken screen applies to all phones.

Every ROM I've flashed has been for all variants of the G2. You pick your model in Aroma when flashing and it changes the couple things that are different between carriers and APNs and whatnot. Seems to work great.

ya, shut it.

[stonehenge]

I just mean that the G3 will probably end up that way after a while. These ROMs support all 4 US carriers, unlocked, Korean, etc and I don't think it requires much work on their end. Hopefully you can flash allthethings soon.
