Q: How can I get more accurate batter statistics?

I can leave the phone alone with minimal drain 100%-90%, then play games or listen to podcasts and the battery will drain quickly 90%-10%. But the "Battery Use" statistics are basically the same (mostly Cell Standby, Wifi, and Idle) as not having played the games. Using Mik CM7b6.5.5 (but it's been like this since beta3-4)

1) Whenever you flash any official fw (GB 2.3.3 v20B), it gets installed into the internal memory of the phone right!? Suppose i do a factory reset (after flashing GB), how much internal memory free space will i have?

2) After installing CM7, how much internal memory free space will i have?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] terratrix:
1) should be 169mb without any app updates installed.

We need a sticky

Hi everyone, I have used XDA developers since my G1. However, in the past year I have owned a T-mobile Optimus T that I have never had an issue (or lacking of features) that required me to move away from Android 2.2, until now. I for the life of me, can't find a step by step walk through of the process of updating to a different ROM that I find sufficient. I have installed many ROMs on my G1 and everything was easy to locate in the stickies. So then, after saying that, what I really need to find out.

First off, I have the P509, am located in the US, Android version 2.2, Kernel Version 2.6.32.9, Build number FRF91, Software version LG-P509-v10l.

I was looking at Mik_os' Cyanogen 7.1 port, more specifically Android 2.3.7, version 6.6.1. I am used to having to install recoveries, custom bootloaders, and radios (which I'm assuming people are calling this baseband now). I have forgotten which order this should be done in, and can't find a thread that lists this clearly.

Next, Kernels. I have Kernel 2.6.32.9, 2.6.35 is required for 6.6.1. Am I able to update my Kernel to the newer version? Or am I stuck with using version 6.5.8

I read that installing 2.6.35 can brick the phone if installed with the wrong ROM.

If anyone can give me a list of every type of file required, and in what order, I would be so happy. I can locate instructions on how to install each myself.

example:

1) Root

2) Recovery version XXXXXXXXX

3) Baseband XXXXXXXXX

4) Kernel 2.6.35

5) Boatloader XXXXXX

6) ROM 2.3.7 6.6.1

Thanks in advance for any input!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] TrashMe24:
Ok, I successfully installed version 6.5.8

1)Root

2)Recovery

3)Flash

simple enough. I am avoiding 6.6.1 until I collect enough info that I can be confident it's going to work.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sweetnsour:
You can flash 6.6.1 over 6.5.8. The only thing you need to do is wipe dalvik cache and you're good.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] TrashMe24:
Awesome, glad to know I don't need 2.6.35 kernel to get it. That said, are there any known advantages to the newer kernel?

Other than overclocking that is. Performance?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sweetnsour:
Oh, it looks like I skimmed over too much details in your last post :p

6.6.1 comes with a 2.6.35 kernel. I don't know how it was like for the G1, but for the P500, flashing a rom also flashes the required kernel base since the rom also comes with a kernel (you did need a 2.6.35 kernel but flashing 6.6.1 gave you a 2.6.35 kernel). However, you can change the kernel as long as your rom is compatible with that other kernel (they both must be of the same kernel base). So for instance:

For cm7 6.5.8, you can flash any 2.6.32.x kernel but you cannot flash any 2.6.35.x kernel.

For cm7 6.6.1, you can flash any 2.6.35.x kernel but you cannot flash any 2.6.32.x kernel.

Usually the thread of the rom specifies what kernel is compatible with the rom.

You are never stuck on any kernel version. You can always change your kernel version by flashing another kernel. The only thing you need to worry about is whether the kernel is compatible with your rom (which I talked about above).

Speaking of compatibility, you already know that flashing an incompatible kernel will brick your phone. That is half wrong :)

Your phone won't be bricked if you flash an incompatible kernel. But that is not to say that you won't run into some problems, such as a nonfunctional accelerometer, nonfunctional camera, etc. In the event that you do flash an incompatible kernel, just flash back another kernel that is compatible.

As for any advantages, it is hard to say for sure. I believe there is a performance gain, but I have no idea as to how the battery is affected.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] TrashMe24:
Well that about takes care of everything. The only other thing I need to find is if I can get my wi-fi calling back. I did some searching in the forums and there are a lot of threads on this, but it seems that no one has come back to them mentioning anything about gingerbread phones. Does anyone know of a thread for wi-fi calling on the P500 with gingerbread?

Thanks again!

Optimus V CPU temp

All-

My OV has the stock ROM rooted with the picasticks-07 kernel overclocked to 806 Mhz. From the trolling around on the interweb I've been able to do, I currently have a SetCPU profile that throttles the CPU back to the stock 600 Mhz if the temp goes above 40 C. Does this make sense? I've had a hard time figuring out what the top "safe" CPU temp might be for these phones.

Any info would be appreciated- thanks!

hi guys, i'm new here, so i want to flash some custom ROM from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1427898

so, i have original 2.3.3 20c rom, cwm recovery, and franco's .35 kernel..

i read all FAQ's but i dont understand about baseband, if that custom rom have new baseband, do i need to do something with my baseband to flash it, or i already have new baseband, then just run cwm recovery and flash this new rom?

sorry, but i'm a noob at this, somebody help me :o

If you have new baseband, you can flash new baseband based roms without doing anything to your baseband. Hence you can flash the above mentioned rom directly through recovery.

a2sd with stock rom

Hi all,

after trying many roms, as I need my phone to be as much stable as possible (use it also for work) i decided to switch back to stock v20g 2.3.3

The only thing I want is the chance to use a2sd and free internal space for apps.

After flashing stock v20g with kdz, I followed the instructions to root, then load cwm 3.1 recovery, flashed a2sd darktremor zip and finally installed a2sd gui from marked.

The SD was already partitioned properly to work with a2sd when i had custom roms, and was fine.

No errors, everything seemd fine BUT...Actually the apps are not properly moved and installed to SD, and the a2sd script do not allow me to move dalvik cache to sd...error is "no free space on device".

If, from a2sd gui, i try to see memory usage, all indicators simply do not populate with memory values...as the script cannot read memory usage..

Can you give ma any advice? please do not suggest me any custom rom, i have to stick with v20g original..

Thanks a lot.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] xcyborg007:
pls correct me if I'm wrong.. But darktremors a2sd does not work with stock rom.. so for other a2sd methods i suggest you refer this..;)

It is true, because our phone uses same voltage on 122-480, so higher is faster, and no extra battery...

I should meet and exceed the version requirements for these apps, and I don't have problems with most apps or the rom itself. Is something wrong with what I've done to my phone or could someone explain to me why these applications are incompatible?

OK this was one of my great doubt when i heard about link2sd,now i am ok with this

i will clarify what i got.there are 2 types of apps in android,those which can be moved to sd and those which cannot(like apps having a widget),for widgets to work you have to keep the app in internal mem,above said is the ordinary case.when developing apps developers provide an option to move there apps to sd,this is what we see in settings as 'move to sd card'.a app will have mainly 4 parts a apk file ,a dex file,lib file and private data file.

now what app2sd in cyanogen mod do? it move the internal memorys apps folder(apk files) to external partition in sd card( like partition in our harddisk),and create a link to it ,thus helps to save our memory,

now link2sd: it move the apk file,lib file,dex file to the sd card partition and create a link to this folder from internal,thus helps to save even more internal space.

need of this external partition:while booting on this external partition will be loaded as an internel memory,helps as to

1.work widgets even if the corresponding app is in external partition

2.external partition will be kept mounted even if usb mass storage is connected thus the linked apps(apps that moved to external partition) will work.

But here's the catch: the phone selects their broadband APN by default, even though i've recieved the settings for the new option.
