1. 4.1.2 is now stable for our phones

2. Big list of features

3. Performance improvement

4. Battery backup almost the same on minimum usage, if you are heavy user battery life is slightly lower

5. Bug is reboot on potable hotshot

6. You should definitely try Slimbean 4.1.2 by popdog123

Hey guys, I'm using stock gb rom, I need help with a2sd and plz don't recommend me link2sd app, if needed am willing to change my kernel as stock kernel doesn't support ext3. I recently bought 8gb class 10 sdcard. I need decent a2sd as in custom roms, which moves complete app to sdcard. Every time Facebook app's size increases I run on low storage problem.how do you guys manage with such small internal memory. :) And recommend me some good kernel for balance between performance and battery life.

I'm anything but expert, but from all I've read, yes you need to unload those caches. make sure you have saved a nandroid backup [load busybox, then load nandroid online - thats the better/modern way I think]

flash image GUI have issue

I tried flash image gui once again with another recovery. i again got same fast boot error. i resolved again same way using fastboot.exe. i pass newly downloaded Twrp recovery and it worked. With touch base recovery, i took full backup & then also updated unofficial GB 2.3.3 and i must say that its much faster than froyo. also theme is black so save better. well i lost root again after official GB and will try one of the method in post to root again.

can fastboot.exe used to flash recovery ?

Hi,

Before trying any custom ROM, I just got official GB 2.3.3 from LG and upgrade worked very smoothly. All settings,userapp data etc. retained. Then I thought to try with CM7 and before that planned to take full system backup. I tried going in recovery mode (I setuped TWRP 2.2.2.1 before upgrading to official GB so that I can revert back to my original Froyo 2.2.2 if something goes wrong). But to my surprised it got factory reset with GB. What ever was retained by LG update gone. I realized that LG upgrade removed my recovery.

Well, earlier attempt of setting up recovery with Flash GUI image was resulted in fast boot error and I followed this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1088046 to have fresh new recovery setup. So my question is, can I use same command through fastboot.exe (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img) to flash TWRP 2.2.2.1 (or any recovery)? Will it work when my phone is normal but just with Factory reset data. This is because I had already bad experience with Flash GUI Image and don't want to again go in brick mode.

Do you suggest any other way ? I find this command very easy to replace recovery when in fastboot mode. Any other such tool ?

Flash image GUI worked !!!!

This is the third time I used Flash Image GUI (motivated by star on google play). This time I downloaded TWRP 2.2.2.1 fresh from here and flash it. I selected option to clear dlavik cache and cache partition. After that i rebooted phone. Once it was fully rebooted, I shutdown and started in recovery mode (with Home+Volume down + power key combination) and with surprised I got TWRP screen. wow !! finally it worked. So it seems that my earlier recovery images were got corrupted and may be because of that it didn't work earlier. I think there must be some way in Flash Image GUI to verify this kind of issue before it actually flash image.

Now next step is to try new ROM :cowboy:. Still checking if CM7 or CM 10.1 would be good for me.

-while getting call there is delay when I have ring available to accept the call (when phone is locked )

-sometimes automatically reboot system even when I am not using it and I realise when I don't get recent app list

-battery draining to fast and mostly while using net. Charging takes more than half day

You have messed the process or you have new based band and you have downgraded the base band! My guess is you have messed the procedure! I'm not an expert buy try to follow guide properly and first download v20g baseband for new baseband or flash stock gb using kdz updater ( remember using kdz updater is too risky, you might end up bricking the device)

That's what I don't understand . The download had completed .
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ayazm.140895:
Ok, then try flashing stock gb with using kdz updater, reset factory settings using recovery and then start flashing stock gb! And probably flashing the fix for old based band before the baseband update is the reason!

I have new baseband, and also had no network with cm7 nightlies. Try the cm7.2 stable mod first (without old bb fix), to see if phone is healthy. If it is, then there is a fix for the nightlies that I could post later. If it doesn't work with the stable mod, then that can be fixed by restoring nv2 backup from lgmdp.

Did you make a nandroid backup? Can you access your custom recovery? Pull out battery, and reinsert. Press and hold HOME, VOLUME DOWN, and POWER... Keep holding... lg logo will appear... KEEP HOLDING until recovery menu appears. Now restore your backup.

Edit: If you didn't make a backup, you could try to re-download the rom, or another rom. Possibly you got a bad download, or needed to properly wipe /system, data, cache, and dalvik cache. A version 2.3.7 will not normally cause your trouble. Although you would need to fix your network data (more about that later).

If you cannot access recovery, there are ways to fix that also. But I can't help you without more information. What recovery did you install (clockworkmod, amonra, twrp)? Was the rom cm 7.1 or cm 7.2?

[Optimus One, P500, V General] ibub:
Three things to check:

1) Access Point Name, in settings/ wireless and networks (MORE)/mobile network/access point name

2) Baseband: If you previously had a froyo rom (android 2.2.x), then your phone has old baseband (v10). Roms from gingerbread (android 2.3) and newer are made to work with new baseband (v20). There is a patch that can be flashed in recovery:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1963815

3) Check to see if any space is left in /system. Many times these roms and gapps are too big to fit on our /system partition, and must be trimmed.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] mihir287:
Pros you have got right.

About the cons: afaik there is a thread on enabling wifi calling on custom roms for t mobile customers. Swype is not in stock rom in the first place and even if you install it there aren't any problems (I'm using swype right now). No froyo rom and official GB based roms have any bugs, CM based roms have negligible bugs, and whatever hangs or freezing is caused can be rectified by reducing the OC. And what other features does stock rom have over custom roms?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mihir287:
Stability issues are generally caused by aggressive overclock, so stability vs speed are inversely related. All roms I've used have been stable, as for the fast rom, you would have to try out for yourself and see.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mihir287:
1. Afaict yes.

2. Don't know if it's a feature in any rom, but it can implemented in any 2.3 based rom (there is a thread for that).

i've searched throughout this forum but fail 2 get proper solution as i couldn't get my phone recognized by my pc. Only while i press Power + vol up + home then i see the message USB device not recognized..bla bla bla.....tried all the key combinations but cant never get into the emergency mode...basically nothing but the annoying LG logo appears...and yeah..sometimes it goes blank, thats all....

my phone model is SU370 optimus 1 purchased in korea....i even downloaded the drivers frm korean lg website...its not detected at all......

Pls help, it's my bro's phone, thanks a lot
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mihir287:
Did you try both combos? Namely home+vol down+power and back+vol up+power? If done correctly then the first will get you in recovery and the second will get you in emergency mode. If you can boot into recovery(provided you have custom recovery) just flash another rom. If you can't get into recovery but can boot into emergency mode then use KDZ method. If you can't get into emergency mode, then give your phone to warranty.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] monkstar:
Nope...if i keep holding the power + vol up + home for few seconds then my comp detects it as USB malfunctioned device but if i let it go, it'll disconnect.......tried both ways with/without battery also with other key combinations.

When i flashed CWM recovery it showed successful....

Don't think i've got warranty coz my dad bought it frm Korea...:(

If my LG service center here dont accept, im dead....anyways thanks a lot bro...pls let me knw if there re any other ways.....

By safe mode do you mean emergency mode? If you can access recovery then you can try formatting system (advanced menu) in addition to wiping all data and then trying to install CM7 or another rom or your original backup.

If that doesn't work, then see this thread.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mihir287:
Did you used to face this problem before? Did this start occurring immediately after flashing the rom or after a few days? If it is the latter then it may be a carrier issue. Try updating to the latest franco .32 kernel. You can also try a fresh install.
