The tutorial has been designed with the GPe in mind and not the original Pad 8.3

The LG G Pad 8.3 Google Play Edition was launched not so long ago and is the only 8-inch tablet offering a pure Android experience, thus making it a very notable choice if you’re looking for a tablet with such a display size.

If you own an LG G Pad 8.3 Google Play Edition tablet and want to compile your very own kernel for the tablet, you could check out the very thorough guide posted by user sleekmason, on the xda-developers forum.

Basically, the tutorial provides instructions on how to download the kernel source of the tablet, compiling a new custom kernel with the source and installing that onto your tablet. The instructions are clear and are fitted with eloquent examples.

Note, the guide assumes a basic knowledge of Linux operating systems, so users of the OS won’t have a problem going through the steps.
