Hey guys,
I came across this thread in reference to Framaroot, a one click root method via apk that had the Nexus 4 listed as compatible. I downloaded it onto a Sprint LG OG at Best Buy and it did indeed work. I ended up freegeeing and installing a custom ROM and recovery on it. Let's see if anyone working at Best Buy notices If anyone wants to test it on the E970, here is the thread link to the page.

Wait, you blew over the stock rom on a display phone at Best Buy? Man if I were an employee i'd be pretty pissed off for having to deal with that!

Worked for me using the Gandalf method. LGNPST, Root, FreeGee, all with one quick reboot.
Did not work for me using both

I tried both and I'm on the JB OTA.

Well I guess I had LGNPSTd over to 11c so that may be why

If you carefully follow directions, then it's never really scary.
One click root apps are pretty old now, they don't work on newer devices, so you'll probably have to "get your hands a little dirty" of you want to root

Probably, just don't pay too much. I'd say $15 is MAX, really don't want to get ripped off. Also, make sure you have some sort of "warranty" like if they brick it then they owe you a refund and full price of the tablet

Well you can still color me skeptical. A screenshot of a lockscreen could be anything. Especially when you mention what's not working: "everything". I'm not trying to dissuade him from working on it if he indeed is, I'm just not excited about a phone pic of another phone sitting at idle lockscreen. He could have ported the next super computer for all I know.
I will apologize for my skepticism later if it proves unfounded, I promise.

Moto X and Moto G are both going to be supported for years because Motorola is owned by Google now. Therefore, Motorola phones are practically Nexus phones. Even though they don't get updates first, they get them soon after!
Well i just found out CyanogenMod Team coming out with a phone... I want that instead since all i'm gonna do is put a custom rom on a phone anyways..

I'm definitely getting the moto g when it comes to the US in January, can't believe it's only $179. Could probably sell this phone for $100 too, $79 for an unlocked 720p phone with KitKat sounds great.

I'd say maybe once every week or two weeks, I'd do it daily, but my laptop can only hold so much
Then again, I build stuff pretty randomly, so you might get 2 a week here, 1 a week there, so we'll see

Well, UEFI was a jerk, so I had to use Builduntu. And the Builduntu maker max's out the max amount of memory you can give it to 100 gigs.
Mahdi itself is maybe 35
And each of the model builds in about 20 and then (somehow) turns itself into a 200mb zip
I can hold 2 at once since system takes up 9gb
So... Yeah
And I promised the CFX people I would work on that too and CFX took up a buttload of data
So when I do that, expect maybe a week or two with no new builds, and then once I'm done with that, I'll make it for the variants and then get back to Mahdi, and then some HellKat

No problem, but this whole thing with the kernel and no LED and no pocket mode is driving me nuts, I'm gonna switch kernels until it gets resolved. Geespr gets dailys since I know what's wrong, and can find how to fix it. All the stuff on the variants depends on you guys
