Do Nexus 4 Kernels Work? - AT&T LG Optimus G

Do Nexus 4 kernels work on the Optimus G if you flash it to the proper partitions?
ie: fastboot flash boot kernel.img

NO. YOU WILL HARD BRICK.

WHAT?

Why would it hard brick if you flash it to the proper partition?

Talk to Shelnutt2, autoprime, houstonn, or another super user/dev like that. They actively discourage the usage of nexus kernels that are not modified. Your sd card, cap keys, and maybe some other stuff wouldn't work without kernel mods.

Ah okay, thank you.
Are there any kernels with sweep2wake? I can't seem to find any

N4 doesn't have capacitive keys so no.
But there is a mod that let's you activate the phone by tapping or sliding the screen. (Its for the n4 only though)

Ah okay, so does that mean it cannot be used/modified for the Optimus G?

It won't, but the problem is people just flash the zips, which are usually by partition # instead of by partition name, so people hard brick. Because of this we actively discourage it since hard bricking a $500 is not good. If you know enough to make sure it's flashed to the right partition then I won't discourage you. Most things will work.

The n4 kernels only boot if your running the rpm/tz from the v20j ota.

I tried adding sweep2wake to B18c1 and I get stuck here:
make[3]: *** No rule to make target `drivers/input/touchscreen/sweep2wake.o', needed by `drivers/input/touchscreen/built-in.o'. Stop.
make[2]: *** [drivers/input/touchscreen] Error 2
make[1]: *** [drivers/input] Error 2
Do you know what that means?

Did you add the .c and the references to it in kconfig, makefile, and defconfig?

I was almost certain it wouldn't be that, but it was, thanks! Sweep2wake.c was in the wrong folder for some reason.
I'm now stuck here:

I'm trying to manually merge the code from the Nexus 4 but the touch code seems to have been completely rewritten for the N4?
