Normal VS GPE OTAs? - G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I wonder which Software Version will get the latest updates faster or first?
A normal Moto G or a Google Play Edition Moto G?
Would it be better to flash a GPE ROM on a normal Moto G to get the latest Updates that are going to maybe come this summer faster?

This is a characteristic, The Moto G google play edition upgrades are always the first than the normal moto G because there's no motorola's customization and carrier's customization
Sorry about my english =) i'm learning

Hmm okay, thank you, what do you think is better the GPE ROM or Motorolas ROM?

Your choice. It depends on what do you like the most: google apps or moto customized apps (e.g. launcher, camera etc.).

Id say go with the GPE. Its easier to unlock/relock the Bootloader because you don't have to go through the Motorola unlock website, you'll get updates before regular moto g will, and if you have any hardware issues after your rooted you can just unroot and relock the Bootloader and send it in to google. If you Bootloader unlock a regular moto g, the warranty is permanently voided and there's no way to hide it because you HAVE to go through the Motorola unlock website.
The GPE moto g is basically a cheaper plastic version of a Nexus 4 [emoji4]

i Think its better the Motorolas ROM because you can flash (With the bootloader unlocked) a kernel, for example the Hybrid Kernel by Faux
Motorolas has the F2FS file system and Google Play Edition has ext4 file system thats why most of kernels can't work with GPE.

Unbranded firmware for International Optimus g pro

Hi I have a korean LG optimus g Pro LG F240S. the screen and everything is very good but the software has a lot of carrier crap. Can some developer please build a international firmware CWM image or otherwise. Would make this phone the best phone out there. Some AOSP ROMS will just be great.

The most carrier crap can be disabled by application settings, services can be stopped as stated here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292012, so you'll get almost debloated and fast phone
Do you think we'll have cyanogenmod rom for this phone?
It all depends on unlocking the bootloader

[Q] I want to install Google Play Edition on my V500

Hello Guys
I bought my LG V500 90 days ago. Now I am pretty tired of the stock version of the OS.
I would like to install a standard Google Play Edition ROM - no addons or anything. Basically I want to transform it into a LG V510 with the AOSP google version.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4, so I am not really experienced in the LG roms.
Do you have a complete Google Play Edition ROM for the LG V500 you can recommend?
It is important that is without any extra features. I just want a basic Android OS, like the one on the LG G Pad 8.3 Google Play Edition.
Sorry if there are some mistakes in my english.
Thanks
Hello,
I have AICP Rom. I tried multiple Rom and AICP is much better. Is AOSP basic with a lots of impruvements(AOKP+PARANOID+CYANGENMOD).

You can not install the V510 GPE ROM on the V500. The drivers and hardware are different. The closest you can come is CM11.
Thanks guys.
I was considering Mahdi Rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2581988 but the download link is broken, så i will consider again.
 @cam30era i know i can't install THE V510 GPE ROM. I meant a ROM that looked/worked like as if I was using a V510.

GPE is "pure” AOSP. CM11 is AOSP based and is as close to GPE as you will get.

1. no
2. no it is not possible but there are a few asop roms that look close to google play edition.
3. using the lg tool for windows, you can return back to stop.
4. hardware wise, no difference. just software. v500 is LG rom, v510 is stock google.

So do I have to:
1. Root it
2. Install recovery
And I can flash any rom?
Can you tell me which one is not much different from gpe?
I know cm, mahdi and others but I'm looking for the most stable and simple rom similar to gpe .

I like slimkat myself, however if you are trying to go close to gpe CyanogenMod is probably closest of all the ones I've tried
The bootloader for the V500 is locked out of the box and roms use a workaround called LOKI. Rooting I used towelroot. Installation of recovery will vary depending upon what version of the LG code is installed on your device (4.2.2 or 4.4.2).
It is strange for me that it is no pre rooted deodexed gpe to flash using custom recovery.
Ok.
And what about LG tool? Is it software from LG?
I need to click repair and then it will restore stock lg rom?

Any chance to get CM for lg g4 h818p or any roms that are close to stock android?

I was using a phone with a stock android before I got my lg g4, and I very much prefer the stock android experience over the lg custom version. I got a the duel sim version of the lg g4 (h818p), unfortunately Cyanogenmod hasn't been released for this version yet (maybe will never be)! So, is there any chance that they will do it in the future? Or are there any other roms that I can run on my lg g4 that can give the stock android experience or something close?
