Just like the title says......I'm looking for a quadcore phone and for the price, can't really beat this but sadly to say, it's been released since November and have not seen very much action going on here.
Is the LG phone pretty much just the way it is?
Thank you,

We will have some stuff very soon. I hope before February, if not then, hopefully in Feb. There are people working on both CM10 and AOKP. The devs haven't had source so are sort of flying blind. They have mentioned they think source will drop soon.

oh very nice......that's what I was thinking too maybe that the source was just not available at this point. Honestly, at this point, this phone is a monster and would love to see some development go on this. lol

What more do you want, the devs don't want to spend to much time on building ICS ROMs when jelly Bean is right around the corner. Once the source drops expect things to pick up.

I don't see why everyone is getting mad at the guy for saying it sucks because, compared to the other devices, it isn't getting much support. That's a fact. It sucks in the sense we don't have much support. It's awesome though that from the support this device DOES have, they seem to be really committed and knowledgeable and I truly believe this device is gonna have some awesome stuff in the coming months.
To the OP, it is getting better. When I first came here, devs were just working on getting the bootloader unlocked. And now we have quite a few ROMs and quite a few mods thanks to the awesome and devoted people in this section. This is still a brand new device and it's only getting better. Can't wait to see what the future has in store for this device!
I'm actually listing this on eBay to sale because I've tried my hand at bringing cm and without sources to go off of its extremely difficult. The phone itself has potential, but don't think it will get the support it deserves due to LG. I'm going back to Samsung and will live my days out there unfortunately.

Source is coming within the month most likely, and honestly I don't miss much from when I had JB on my old phone, but since we are getting JB soon anyways, and some of the devs have CM10 booting....

I think everyone is mad at LG for craptacular support of their device but taking it out on the poster because he is insinuating that the problem is with the developers. They are doing the best they can but only a very small handful of devs have the knowledge, time, and resources to overcome the obstacles in our way, again, because of LG. Once those roadblocks come down, then it will be much, much easier for the garden variety developer to customize and build ROM's for the LGOG, and things should take off.

Development for this phone is non existent. Selling mine to a coworker.
Not the developers faults though. It's LG...and don't plan on buying anything from them again whether it's their TVs or phones. Just took 2 LG TVs back to the store that I bought for my office. I refuse to support a subpar company.
I just think it is insulting to the devs that are working on the device. And everyone thinks nothing is happening since the devs don't post their work here but on the irc Chanel. Is as of everyone expects a CM ROM to be available with in a week of the device dropping, even though we don't have kernel source.

You east coast? I get free UPS shipping thru my business. PM me an offer. I won't cry losing this phone. It was the first S4 Pro phone... Now they're about to be a dime a dozen. I hope you guys end up with a wonderful development scene. However, it's LG, not any dev here.
I just can't believe all the negativity. Every new device takes time. I also don't miss JB at all. This device is faster than all the other ones I've had.
I also can't believe that there is another thread asking about development. There's a section for that. All you have to do is look there.

I don't believe they are trying to talk bad about the great work this entire Dev community has done, but rather about LG. You guys have done a great job with what you were given. The OG components wise is a great product, but the fact that LG released it obviously will hinder its progress and potential. GL to you guys and I am sure you will release a great product with exceptional support unlike LG

Not anywhere near a $99 price point, but I agree. Would've waited but I can't afford an upgrade being in college, and I managed to get this phone for free.
Not to be pessimistic, but LG takes their sweet time releasing source. Coming from a G2X and 03D.

Our devs worked very hard to unlock our bootloader so I don't believe you are giving them enough credit when you say its been unlocked since day one. You acknowledge that the Atrix version is not stable. Well that is kind of a problem for us because the Atrix team will most likely be the ones who will port it over for us. There was a thread started about it on the cyanogenmod forums about two weeks ago so you might want to keep that thread alive. A lot of people aren't willing to sacrifice their 4g access for custom ROMs just yet but once the 4g issue is fixed then I think you will see a lot more. You might want to communicate with the Atrix team and show them your support and offer your device for testing if you wish to speed things up. Just make sure you have a nandroid backup.
First rule of Cyanogenmod is don't ask for an eta.
Sent from my Motorola Photon 4g
Not being a Dev (yet. I am eager to learn) my layman's/noob's suggestion would be for the Photon Dev's and the Atrix Dev's to combine forces to create CM7 for both phones. If I am not mistaken, and please correct me if I am wrong so I can learn, the Photon & Atrix are very similar and with the exception of the RIL and a few other minor differences the CyanogenMOD ROM for both phones would be practically identical. Sometimes too many cooks spoil the soup but most of the time the more great minds the better.
I understand that both the Photon & Atrix Dev's put in a ton of work to root & unlock the bootloaders. They did this out of a love for what they do and asked for nothing in return, they should be thanked and praised for their efforts and contributions to the community.

I think it has more to do with people getting annoyed with noob and uniformed questions. Since when did a a different phone with an unstable version and a bootloader that will break 4G become a prerequisite for the Photon getting CM7?

Unfortunately some of the best developers on this forum have turned into the evil apple fanboy twins in denial and refuse to leave HTC products. Despite the obvious superiority of the Photon over the Evo 3D, they refuse to pick one up simply because it is Motorola. Their argument is "It's Motorola and they don't unlock bootloaders", but they haven't even looked to see that it is unlocked. Be it what it may, we have kennethpenn and seanzscreams and I love them both dearly for putting all the effort they have into two great ROM's. This phone has been everything I want and more even on stock software, so I'm not upset of the Evo forum /bb/tards don't find their way into this section and it remains quiet here. Granted I'd love to see the power of this phone be unlocked, I doubt it'll happen with HTC and Samsung holding so many developers by the balls with the bells and whistles of nonfunctioning products.

It will. Our phone is so similar to the Atrix that they will be able to help as well. I am not getting into the hype of the SGS2. Will be a great phone but the Photon is much more of a power house. We have only just got source. Once AOSP gets ported things will be lovely.

I agree with u. I'm sorry. I had an evo4g and the 3d just doesn't live up to its predecessor. The photon was just the better choice
I wish there was an online school, maybe run by the devs, to give guidance on how to create roms and kernels. I know there are forums with directions, but allot of it I just don't understand. Unless a dev takes you under his wing and explains it to you, it is very difficult to learn. Maybe some type of online chat and examples, and there would be a membership fee to attend. This way the devs would be compensated for their time. If there were say hundreds people enrolled, the cost would be minimal. Just thinking out loud. Wish I new more so I could help the community. I have already learned more about it than I ever thought I would, do to lack of development with some of the phones I have chosen. Either way, I'm keeping this Mopho!

Looking at the Captivate, I think it only makes sense to hold on to the GS2 for at least another 6 months before moving on. Development doesn't really start to take off until the device has been out for 6 months to a year.

SGIII wont be available on AT&T( if it comes at all, which it should) until at least September, but more than likely be October (just like the GSII). If you have an upgrade now and want a phone, get the GSII... if you can wait 6-8 months, hold out for the GSIII.

The same reason why PC hardware has become a non-factor, software has not caught up to the processing power of the hardware. A captivate will perform 90% as well as the SGSIII on a custom ROM. Battery life will probably be better too.

+1 for this - if you can, I'd at least wait until it's announced and see the specs. One other consideration - if you like to root, load ROMs, themes, play with the settings above and beyond stock, get the SGS2 - it will take time to build up a community for the 3 when it comes out.
I was wondering what do you guys think i should upgrade to I'm coming from the incredible 2 which had great dev support. I was gonna get the DNA because of the specs and i've played with it in the store and i loved it! But i'm worried there won't be many roms for it which is why i was thinking about getting the S3 instead.

You're right on that but the Rezound came out around the same time as the Galaxy Nexus and all the devs flocked to the Gnex, thats why i think the rezound didn't get as much support as it should have.

I used GS3. It can also be due to habit

The rezound had enuff developement for me personally, I enjoyed the roms that came out , ALL Quality roms from many devs, its just the community drove them away. I just hope the DNA xda community is respectful of its developers.
Respect...

Hey guys, now that we have TWRP for our LG G3's custom ROMS should be coming soon!!
I noticed on Scott's Facebook page (CleanROM) that he is now accepting pledges for donations.
I for one would love to see CleanROM.
Check out his Go Fund Me Page:http://www.gofundme.com/fobbac
Dang, you beat me to it.
I pledged $25.

Wow, when I left the S3, I never thought i would see Scott and Beans again. My S3 was always back and forth on their ROMS.
Great news. I just donated $70 to the Devs of the unlock, but when I get a chance I'll donate to you guys.
I am still using CleanROM on my wife's old GS3 and I have AllianceROM on my old GS3, my two fav devs. It would be awesome if they brought their talent to this great phone. I wish I could pledge but I lost my job and I'm fighting to make ends meet.

Can you Imagine the frankenstein/beast of a phone we could have with Clean ROM with tons of switches and toggles? I'de be happy to see what both of you can do.
I thought having Scott OR Beans making roms for Roms for G3 would be awesome! And there we go! BOTH of them! I will be donating as soon as I get my check
Forgive my unfamiliarity here, but the two ROMs being discussed, are these stock based or AOSP? Just curious. Either way, it's great to see some developer interest so soon. Give me a little time (just returned to work after 13 weeks because of a broken leg) and I'll gladly throw in some money to help the cause.

if i remember right, both are stock; Beans is optimized with features while Clean is lightweight smooth as butter (i don't speak for the devs and its been a while for me so..ask them?)
Be careful what you wish for with Cleanrom. On the HTC One Max, Note 10.1 2014 Edition and Tab Pro 8.4, he got the device with donations. He put out one Rom and maybe one update and sold the devices very quickly. I had all of those devices but did not donate thankfully. The forums for the devices had some very upset people.
