Hello there fellow XDA and especially LG G Watch people!
You can view this guide by clicking on the link below
LG G Watch - The Ultimate Guide​
In the last couple days I've created a guide covering most sections many people and especially newbies get constantly confused about.
But that's not the only thing I did with it, you can find recent ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries and so on there too!
In a nutshell this guide covers...
... Drivers
... ADB and Fastboot commands
... Tools
... Install APK/Apps
... OTA Updates
... ROMs
... Kernels
... Recovery
... and more!
Feel free to leave any kind of feedback here or on the blog post! You can also contact me via PM and E-Mail if you like. Please keep questions in this thread here tho and avoid asking them via private message, remember, these questions and their solution can be useful for others too! Would be a shame if they'd miss it
Changelog
27. August 2015
* Added section "Install APK/Apps"
* Added "Enable Debugging Mode" guide
* Added "adb install" command
27. August 2015
* Initial Release

This thread will always be a work in progress, there may be times when it stays static for a while due to the fluctuating nature of events if you notice it hasn't been updated in a while don't assume it is dormant.
Please do not post in this thread for support/question etc. This is intended to to be a ONE WAY THREAD. I write down the information and other people read it. Do not consider this as a rebuke to anyone nor an attempt on my part to indicate that I am "the authority on all things flyer" that is not the case. I am simply indicating that I will maintain a thread for information on all things development related. In addition Scabes24 will maintain a list of useful links in post 5. If either of us runs out space we will get a moderator to make room for more posts. If there is anything you feel is missing and can contribute to the thread then PM me an I will add it. The only exception to this is for ROM Devs who want to grab one post each after the general information to maintain an Index of their ROMs / releases, the ROM must be released to post in this thread, no announcements of upcoming releases etc.
If you're wondering why I said all this...the simple answer is I want a simple location for new people to get all the information on this stuff without having to trawl through pages and pages of posts in case there is a useful piece of information. It should all be in the first 5 posts + any posts the ROM developers use.
Anything that does not fall into these categories I will ask a moderator to delete from the thread.
Do not under any circumstances post a reply to say thanks or similar. If you want to say thanks, use the thanks button.

Updating links..
I sort of smell a sticky request huh
Done if you need something else, just pm me guys.
A good thread to update the xda-wiki
and actually i gonna try to do it later
Check here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_Flyer
View needs a dedicated thread, maybe?
With the recent massive holiday promotion and sales of "Sprint's HTC Evo View 4G", we may need a separate thread for the Noobs who are getting confused whether they can use Flyer mods/roms/hacks. As a View user, even I am not always sure which of these posts pertain to the View.
Just a friendly suggestion to the gods of XDA....

Maybe when there is something worth posting for the view I'll do that, however for now everything is labeled Flyer, View or nothing if it applies to both models or is android generic.

Thank you for the guide!
This thread has been created to let those who do not know what is allowed in development.
Things you CAN create a new thread for in Development
1. Roms (You created it or Ported it with permission)
2. Kernels (You compiled it and is GPL compliant)
3. System Dumps (Only one thread per new system dump) (First one wins the rest will be deleted)
4. S-Off Tool Kits (You created it)
5. Scripts (You created it)
6. If YOU created it you may post it
CREDITS
Credits must be given in your threads for whatever help you have received when creating something. If you port something then give credits and links to the where you ported it from. This goes for mods that you port as well. Permission must be given if you port a rom from another section. This is to prevent the originator from getting upset and there being a flame war between developers. We are all here for fun and as a hobby so lets all be friendly and do the right thing.
Things you may NOT create a new thread in Development for
1. Questions
2. Question
3. Roms YOU DID NOT create or port
4. Kernel YOU DID NOT create
5. S-Off Tool Kit YOU DID NOT create
6. Scripts YOU DID NOT create
7. Themes
8. Apps
9. IF YOU DID NOT CREATE IT OR PORT IT THEN DO NOT MAKE A THREAD FOR IT
Threads that are created that fall into the DO NOT CREATE list will be either deleted or moved. If you continually create new threads in the Development section that fall into the DO NOT CREATE you will start receiving Infractions or a Ban
PLEASE BE RESPECTFUL and know where the sections are.
GENERAL - is for general chat about the 3d
QUESTION & ANSWERS - This is for getting Questions and Answers
DEVELOPMENT - For something you CREATED
THEMES & APPS - For themes and apps that you have created, found or ported
I hope this finally puts an end to all the questions in the dev section.
yeah, It was getting very annoying when every zipmodder posts a rom with some custom wallpapers and stolen modded apks and some frameworks and calls it a ROM and then asks for donations !!
And please... No more "Coming soon" threads. Ubuntuz created one for JB on evo3d a couple of days for a rom that never came. I've always suspected him to full of crap. He's been saying that he's working on a mod to get the 3d camera working on AOSP since the beginning of the year. That never came. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt once. But c'mon.
Need confirmation/permission to start [INDEX] Thread.
As you probably know, we now have working camera for CM9!!!
Anyway, I am planning to make ONE [INDEX] thread that list all Kernels, Tweaks, Mods that I have confirmed to be working with CM9/AOSP. We don't really have much info on this as most of us didnt use CM because of the camera issue. Can I create this thread in Development? I take responsiblity to update it as frequently as I can. There maybe some apps in the list, simply because they use or run on CM9 Libraries.
Hey guys!
This thread is a for my program - Beatsleigher & M4gkman's Universal Android Toolkit.
It is meant to be a single program, for virtually all Android devices out there.
(See original thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32139126)
I want to know, what features you, as a Galaxy S III user, would like to see and use in this program. I'm not talking about general features, such as downloading a ROM via sideload or anything, but more what especially you guys would like in the device's specific form/window.
Even if it's just your ROM being available for download or a specific theme you'd like to be download- and installable.
Please let me know, I'm interested. I may have a GS III myself, but I've been busy programming the application since September now and I haven't done much in any other forums, except looking for decent ROMs and kernels etc. which I could feature as a download.
If you like, you could also create a batch script of sorts and PM it to me, if you want to help. I'll then gladly feature your name in the program
Happy answering!

P.s. This goes to the mods. If you don't want this thread to be here, feel free to delete it. But let me know, first so I can have a last look and see if there's anything new

THIS GUIDE IS FOR THE MOTO G6 PLUS ONLY
Hopefully, this guide will accomplish a number of things:
Reduce the same questions being answered over and over.
Reduce the likelihood of errors when modifying the device.
Educate users how to fix a bricked or soft-bricked device.
Educated users on Custom Roms.
Educate users on Project Treble and the Generic System Image format.
READ FIRST
Before we begin, let me inform you that you must unlock your bootloader for any of this guide to actually be of use. There are risks! However, there is about a 99.99% chance that the device can be saved even if it appears it will not power on. However, I do not suggest you deviate from the information in this guide. If you follow this guide step by step there is a 99.99% chance you will not encounter any errors! The best practice is to read any and all sections that apply to what you want to accomplish before you attempt them. Read them two or three times. You don't have to memorize them by heart, but this will hopefully make you feel more confident while reducing the chance of an error.
Index:
1: Preparing to Unlock Bootloader
2: Returning to Stock
3: How to install Root (aka Magisk)
4: How to install Custom Roms
*5. Project Treble and Generic System Images
*One last guide will be posted tomorrow to cover Project Treble/Generic System Images aka GSI.
Thank you @Xplorer4x4 your guide will help many people in our community. Good job.
Hey man, thanks a lot for the guide!
And I dont want to be that guy, but can we have a mega mirror or something for the ROM? Downloading 1.7gb at 25 kb/s is not really fun

This is up to rom maintainers. I did host Los16 mirrors through afh but that was because rahual was only posting builds on the telegram group and it was really the only rom we had at that time.

I was wondering if somebody could point me to the process for installing a GSI. I searched and didn't find anything. Based upon some discussions in Telegram, it seems that some were installing a "base" rom (ie lineage) first.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
