So, 24hrs.. ish later. I got everything back that I wiped. So I went to talk into my swype to send a text, and google voice is force closing. So I did a reboot, and my phone gets hella tweakish... So before I turned my phone off my battery was at 50%, turned on: 12%, google voice is still fc..ing, then the battery goes up to 14% from 12%. The sms tells me I have 14 messages, so I go into sms, nope. I had set it up so gosms was the default, and native, bye bye. But it asks me how I want to view the messages. So I go to gosms, and the notification bar doesn't clear out. I battery pull. Now battery is at 29%, and notification bar says 14 messages, and google is still jacked. So I recover, and wipe dalvik and partition. Start phone. Battery at 29%, no messages, but google is still jacked.
[LG Revolution] squidder:
Download battery calibration by neme charge your phone to a 100% and then calibrate it with that app. That will solve your battery issues. Always do this when flashing a new rom
[LG Revolution] markapowell:
did... done, did it this morning. BOOOM!! Now what do you got?
[LG Revolution] markapowell:
Now I just need to figure out the google.
[LG Revolution] markapowell:
Battery is working great besides my earlier issue. Says it should take less than 4 hours to charge rather than 8. Full charge lasted me all day.
[LG Revolution] markapowell:
Alright, so I got the google voice figured out. I went into the market and updated it.
[LG Revolution] Haro912:
Anyone have issues with the SD card being removed randomly even though its still in the phone? Other than me of course...
[LG Revolution] stbbrat:
Only when my phone was thrown 30 ft by a crazy broad.
[LG Revolution] markapowell:
Just looked. I don't have car home running or not running any where.
[LG Revolution] KaneOfMars:
since this has the new update, has anyone seen increased 4G speeds like other people have been reporting? I can't check, no 4G coverage at my house.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
There is just one person that has had those kinds of speeds and there has to be some other factor giving those readings.
[LG Revolution] KaneOfMars:
I was starting to wonder that myself. (other factor = photoshop?) :P
[LG Revolution] ewill21:
I've seen a huge increase in 4G speeds so far. I'm in San Jose currently and was getting 6MB down and 6MB up. I just finished flashing the revolt rom, and I'm getting 17.5 down and 9 up now.

EDIT: Prior to this I was running Decrap 1.1.
[LG Revolution] oncebroken:
Car Home

The dock application, that was virtually useless and a space waster anyway, appears to not be apparent either. It's been awhile since I used it, but I think it was also a way of loading the Car Home app. I have the Car Home app loaded but the icon does not appear anywhere and I can't load a shortcut on a home screen.
[LG Revolution] KaneOfMars:
with ADW ex I was able to create a custom shortcut to an activity.

After selecting Custom Shortcut, select Pick Your Activity then Activities (not sure if this option is available in the standard ADW launcher) ... Car Home shows up there and works :)
[LG Revolution] markapowell:
Yes it does. Only button that doesn't work for me is the navigation. Otherwise it's there.

Sent from the awesomsness, that is my phone. Rev, Revolt 1.0, swype, go launcher.
[LG Revolution] markapowell:
As far as speed testing....when I tested when I got my phone, it was 6 down and 4 up, that was at full bars. Today I was inside with 3 bars and got 6 down and 5 up. I do notice certain apps open and load faster, such as xda.

Sent from the awesomsness, that is my phone. Rev, Revolt 1.0, swype, go launcher.
[LG Revolution] KaneOfMars:
didn't even think to test the buttons... voice search, navigation, and maps don't work for me

kind of defeats the purpose :P
[LG Revolution] ufkal:
Installing now. Thanks for the push. This will be good. I miss my addiction of flashing roms just for fun. now I have two to play with, with more on their way.

Good Job.
[LG Revolution] wheelern:
Would you encourage doing a factory reset before flashing?
[LG Revolution] fefniir:
Just installed it, and it looks awesome! Go Launcher is super fast now. Will the accurate battery mod work with this?
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
It should already be on there.
[LG Revolution] afma_afma:
Great work .....thank you ....
[LG Revolution] fefniir:
Nope, just got a generic looking battery icon in my notification bar
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
That is very odd. It is supposed to have the gingerbread accurate battery with gingerbread icons. Like what is in the pictures in the first post. What does everybody else have?
[LG Revolution] fefniir:
Oops, my bad then. I misunderstood! My battery icon does look like that. I was talking about the one from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1156721
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Ok, I was a little worried lol. It does have the accurate battery, but that mod will not work. Sorry!
[LG Revolution] fefniir:
Oh well. I have a request then: If we could get a battery charge % on the lock screen that would be great
[LG Revolution] Bait-Fish:
Not randomly, only when my phone connects as mass storage via USB to the computer.
[LG Revolution] jphillips.hd88:
I am glad to see that you got the battery fixed.

I have done everything! wiped, reflashed...didn't install a bunch of apps...no matter what I do, I can't get anymore than 3-4 hours of moderate/heavy use...driving me crazy...

I have a replacement phone coming tomorrow, what's funny, verizon didn't argue one bit about me wanting a replacement...even overnighting it. anyway, now i have to put it back to stock and lock it back up, and start over...hopefully that'll do the trick.
[LG Revolution] markapowell:
I hope it works out for you. So far do good here. I got 10 hours of heavy use today.
[LG Revolution] Haro912:
Well ****. My phone hasn't been thrown by anyone so I guess I'm just that special lol. If it starts happening a lot I may have to unroot and turn my phone in. :(
[LG Revolution] K0G:
It disconnects the sd card to allow your USB to connect. You cannot mount the sd card at two places.

Doing so would cause a collapse of the infrastructure of the space/time continuum :P

I tossed my Crap, Revolted and moved out of my Home.
[LG Revolution] jackpot08:
my battery life sucks.....I have to unroot so I can take it in and get a new battery
[LG Revolution] nfederic:
Flashing revo stock with root and then back to revolt 1.3 fixed all my issues.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Sorry guys, personal life has been crazy (60 hours of work, 3 kids, 2 going to school this week, etc...), I will be getting back at it soon, first of which may be redoing the way it is installed to try and eliminate all of the issues that are hit or miss. Thanks for the patience!
[LG Revolution] K0G:
If you have tasks that need worked on please ask. I'm working on an exchange 2007 to 2010 upgrade, so I have nothing really going on.

I tossed my Crap, Revolted and moved out of my Home.
[LG Revolution] jphillips.hd88:
Exact same for me...Verizon is sending me a new revo ....did you have any problems going back to stock and unrooting ?....do you know if there is any special I need to do with internal memory to get rid of "evidence"?
[LG Revolution] jphillips.hd88:
Its all good Mt ! Understand completely...thanks!
[LG Revolution] ufkal:
I for one appreciate all you are doing. And balancing a crazy home life too. +10 to you sir!!
[LG Revolution] smokedkill:
How did you change the shutdown animation?
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
There is a PowerOff.apk in system that you can edit the images.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Something very weird happened when I flashed this. The flash went through without a hitch, not 1 error or issue. However, it didn't change anything lol. I don't know how it happened but nothing at all on my device changed. Do I have to wipe data/factory reset when flashing this? I'm coming from rooted stock build so I probably would huh?
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
That's a first lol! How did you flash? Through advance restore?

If you wipe data, which I do recommend, then flash 1.0 first after wipe, boot up, go through set up, then reboot recovery, advance restore 1.3.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Yep just ran the restore on system. I was shocked myself lol. Gonna,try your suggestion in a couple hours. Thanks for the help man!
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Ok so since this phone is so different from other android devices let me see if I got this right:

Boot into recovery

Wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache partition

wipe dalvik

flash/install 1.0 first

reboot and go through the setup process

reboot into recovery again, flash/install 1.3
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
That is it!
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Awesomeness! Gonna try it right now, thanks mt!

EDIT: Stuck at the Verizon 4G LTE screen. Any suggestions?

EDIT: LOL Nevermind, just had to be patient haha.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Lol, ya that one will get ya!
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Everything is up and running good. Looks very nice man and very clean and smooth! Hey while I'm on here, what was it you used to start themeing this? Extracted the zip but only got a md5 file and a system.img file. I mean I know you used the system.img file but what did you use to ecit the files within it?
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Search for a program called unyaffs, download and unzip at a place easy to get to. Drag and drop the system.img on the exe file and give it a minute and it will extract it all.

By the way, thanks for the advice on getting ubuntu up and running, got it done last night!
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Hey don't mention it! Thanks for all your help as well! I'm gonna try this out, hopefully it's not too hard to figure it out lol.

Unyaffs is on windows right?
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
That is where I have always used it.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Cool, now just 1 more question then I promise I'll leave you alone lol. How do I put everything back together after I've edited what I wanted?
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Easiest way is to make a cwm flashable zip file. Then flash through cwm obviously lol.

And feel free to ask as many questions as you like! I am at work and it is loud (I am an auto mechanic) but I check my phone anytime I have a break.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
I have no idea how to make a flashable zip lol. When I built ROMs for the Eris and the OG Droid, I used this thing called a Kitchen that just made the flashable zip for you.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
I gotcha. I can make one for you and then you can edit it everytime you do something.

What are you making? Theme?
[LG Revolution] K0G:
Extract any flashable zip and you can see the method used. You replace the files you want flashed. Edit the script file. compress the file and then sacrifice a chicken and pray too your appropriate gods :P

I tossed my Crap, Revolted and moved out of my Home.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
You don't even have to extract it. I just leave it zipped up and make the edits inside of winrar. Download the RevoBread zip and it will give you the best idea.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Awesome thanks again man!
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Yeah I just wanted some kind of blue theme to match what I got going on for my current setup which is y0rks blue adw theme. I know a little bit about building but making theme is so different lol.
[LG Revolution] Beamer9408:
I have been running 1.3 on my phone since it was released and that everything was fine until yesterday since then I have been getting random reboots not sure what is causing it I have removed the applications I installed and my swype is lagging really bad anyone else having issues?
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Hello everyone! Just thought I would give a quick update, finally had some time to sit down and play with everything. I will have an update released in the next few days. Thanks to majorpay we have a fix to long press search, I got a properly working car home (still has initial force close on boot, majorpay and I are both working on it but the car home and launcher are VERY picky, and really don't like to be messed with), I have also edited it to show battery percentage in the icon while charging, will have more themed, and a couple other small tweaks! Thanks for the patience guys!
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Sent you a PM.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Replied!
[LG Revolution] jackpot08:
Your making the best better!
[LG Revolution] davidukfl:
getting a revolution today for my wife. This is looking like the rom I'm gonna or on it.

What type of battery life are you guys getting with this rom?

Better or worse than stock rom?
[LG Revolution] Icemans2k02:
Hopefully it wont have the new version on it and you can root it. "/
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
I've tried Home-Less and Revolt both, both in my opinion have phenominal battery life for a 4G ROM. I'd say I get about 12-14 hours on one charge with either one of those ROMs.

And you'll be happy to know that I just put out a theme for Home-Less and Beemer is currently porting it over to Revolt. It might not look like there's much going on for development here but trust me, there is!

When you get the Revo, look under "Settings>About Phone>Build Number

If it has v4, then rooting should be simple for you. If it has v6 then you will have to downgrade first then root. (Downgrading is a P.I.T.A.)

Welcome to the Revo forums!
[LG Revolution] drt054:
Maybe 12 to 14 if you never touch it but if you are always on this thing might get 8 before you have to hook up to charger. Still great phone and I perfer Revolt over stock or Homeless rom. SetCPU is a must have after rooting.. stay tuned for Cyanogen7 coming someday :)

Sent from my revolting LG Revo powered by MTMichaelson
[LG Revolution] davidukfl:
yeh i got the phone today. As soon as my wife turned it on it downloaded and installed the update.

I'll give her a couple of days to get used to it but then probably downgrade it, root and install this rom. 12-14 hours is pretty decent though, especially for a 4G phone.

It'll be nice if some more developers get on board, CM7 or MIUI on this phone would be brilliant.

any undervolting/overclocking on this device yet?
[LG Revolution] Gotroot:
I like this rom but mms doesnt work nor does sending a pic over gmail unless i hit compose new and then attach it to gmail... mms doesnt work peroid
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
TheCubed is currently working on porting over CM7 for us, there are no custom made kernels as of yet so yes you can overclock, but only with the stock kernel. Development is picking up, I know more and more people that are getting this phone because they don't want to shell out $300 for the Bionic. Should be picking up even more here soon.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
I have no problems with mms at all. I use it several times per day. Does it just not send? Not receive?
[LG Revolution] Beamer9408:
I use mms and email attachments all the time with no problems I think this is the first time I have heard of this issue.
[LG Revolution] Beamer9408:
Should be able to get the iconic theme done tonight with the new update it wouldn't have made sense to do it before the update I currently have it all on my phone but the black on black isn't fixed I'm working right now with no kind of access to work on it but it shouldn't take more than a few minutes to fix with the updated files. And as long as it is ok with spc_hicks I will make it available. But I do want to say that it is not my work it is all spc_hicks work if you like it give him the credit for all of it I don't want credit for any of it I did nothing but move files around and just by looking at his icons I can tell he put a lot of time in creating this theme he is very talented.
[LG Revolution] mursepaolo:
I tried to get back on Revolt 1.3 from Home-Less. I wiped data and dalvik and now when my phone boots up, it gets really hot to the point it's uncomfortable to hold. Also, it always says 3G and never 4G. Any ideas? I'm gonna try redownloading the ROM and rewiping and flashing.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Did you have 4G turned off when you flashed the ROM? Also, going from Home-Less to Revolt, you should wipe data/factory reset as well.
[LG Revolution] mursepaolo:
OK... I may have a bigger problem. I noticed that when I tried wiping data again, it doesn't really finish.. it never says data wipe complete. The screen kinda goes blank before it ends and it's like Clockwork restarts itself.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
It's happened to me before too, it still wipes the data.
[LG Revolution] mursepaolo:
ok. managed to restore a backup of Revolt I made a while back (lucky). now my battery gets really hot and doesn't seem to be charging too quickly..

edit: it's actually not charging at all. it's discharging and getting hot.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Give me a few minutes I am finishing up on 1.4 and will post when uploaded. It will install like a cwm zip file. I am just trying to finish up some details really quick.
[LG Revolution] mursepaolo:
Ok I'll stop restoring my phone then. Lol. Time to wipe again.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Alright mursepaolo, you will have to wipe data, then advanced restore 1.0. Reboot and go through log in. After completely loading then flash 1.4. I will send you a link in a pm. I was hoping to have it fixed to do a factory reset and flash 1.4 directly because I think that is where the ringtone issues are coming from.
[LG Revolution] mursepaolo:
awesome. i'll wait for the 1.0 link and dl it when i get home.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
1.4 cwm flashable zip in op
[LG Revolution] mursepaolo:
flashing now.
[LG Revolution] mursepaolo:
my battery died while flashing.... ugh. i had it plugged in too..

edit: i think my phone is dead for good. the charging light isn't even on and it's plugged in. it won't turn on too.. ahh. having the worst luck with the Revo tonight.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
If it died while flashing then you might very well have bricked it. :(
[LG Revolution] jackpot08:
Downloading now. Thanks for all the hard work.
[LG Revolution] imnotamorningguy:
You could try using the dock to charge the battery externally, just save the box and return it when you're done.
[LG Revolution] Beamer9408:
*NOTE: THIS IS NOT WHEN TRYING TO FLASH 1.4*

Maybe it is just me but whenever I tried to format system and wipe data then flash revolt rom I couldn't get it to set up I kept getting a force close on lgsetupwizard. I had to format system wipe data then restore the stock rooted nandroid go through that get phone activate and setup then boot into recovery and flash revolt rom.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Ya, I fixed that for 1.4. The zip does include the system format, dalvik format, and cache format. The only one it does not include is data, which I do recommend on initial flash. I did not include the data wipe because if anyone had to reflash when already on 1.4 then they won't have to reset data.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Ok, what all files are in your zip file? There should only be 2 files in the flashable zip:

framework-res.apk

lge-res.apk

Also, did you use my zip to do it?
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
I think he was talking about 1.1, 1.2, & 1.3 you were not able to data wipe and flash them with out a force close problem so you weren't able to register. That has been fixed in 1.4
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Oh ok, I was getting confused. I thought the problem was when he was flashing the theme zip file.
[LG Revolution] stbbrat:
Ive flashed this 3 times now and my About continues to show Revolt 1.3.

First time, no data wipe just installed over 1.3. No go.

Second, TT back-up, data wipe, installed 1.4. Still 1.3

Third, data wipe, installed 1.4, TT restore. Still 1.3

Am i missing something here?
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
No you aren't missing anything, I am.I forgot to edit it. Sorry!
[LG Revolution] vortmax:
Any chance the v6 radio update made 1.4?
[LG Revolution] jdlaser:
Bluetooth

I know some ( like me) were having problems getting bluetooth the pair with headphones etc in 1.3, I went to homeless to fix that problem but I like revolt and wondered if 1.4 might have fixed the bluetooth issue.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
It does not. I will look into it again.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
I never had a problem with Bluetooth. I think it was in the method it was flashed. If you try it let me know how it does.
[LG Revolution] stbbrat:
Is there any other way i can verify it did update successfully then?
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Open the car home app. If it is gingerbread themed than it updated. Or try long press search.
[LG Revolution] Networkgamer:
Anyone having any problems with widgets in 1.4? Im loving the hell out of it so far, but specifically with the verizon data usage widget, once I add it to a homescreen I cant move it. I can tap and hold and drag it around, but as soon as I drop it to any spot it jumps back.

Edit: Its happening with more and more widgets now. It was fine when I flashed the update, and dont recall doing anything to change something that causes this.

Update: I spoke too soon. Reboot fixed it xP hah. Now that I think of it I never rebooted since flashing the rom and resetting everything up on it. Sorry.
[LG Revolution] Haro912:
Main thing I don't like so far is that I can't tell when the phone is charging. Other than that it seems fairly solid.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Your led not light up when charging?
[LG Revolution] Haro912:
HA!!! Good call. I didn't even think of that. Your a smart cookie ya know that michaelson. :) Sorry about that.
[LG Revolution] Haro912:
Ok just found a major issue. When I go to send a new txt and I type in say mom I get a bunch of listings like always but now I can't see what they are. Like it says:

mom

mom

mom

and not:

mom

<phone number>

mom

<email>

mom

<something random>

Any chance for a quick fix? when you click the things below mom show up so I'm thinking it's a color issue somewhere.

Hope you know what to do. :)
[LG Revolution] ozymandiaz:
I noticed the same thing. If I am careful, I can select a contact and have it show the info without actually adding it to the message, kind of touch it and move my finger as soon as the info shows it's the wrong one. Hopefully this will be corrected shortly though!
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
I will look into it as soon as I get home. If you long press the name it will highlight it and you can read it as a temporary fix.
[LG Revolution] :
Yeah, same thing here. I'm guessing skinning as the problem. Contact name is in black but the rest of the info is in white text. It shows up when you get the touch highlight.
[LG Revolution] mursepaolo:
I got my phone to come back on with the extended battery. Wiped data and flashed 1.4. Booted the phone and it's still getting extremely hot. Battery still won't charge and it still says revolt 1.3 in the phone status.... please help. I miss my phone.
[LG Revolution] jackpot08:
i thought the same thing that you could see like the little thunder in the charging. if you have a notification that LED light trumpts the charging light so sometimes there is confusion on charging.

but no notifications you can tell by green light
[LG Revolution] nfederic:
No issues on mine running handcent.

It's the stock messaging app. Number is in white text on white background.
[LG Revolution] jphillips.hd88:
Hey Mt....Wondering about the hotspot app...I am wondering what it would take to get the verizon provisions and tracking off the native 4g hotspot app...my wifes thunderbolt and daughters facsinate both are on roms that have that removed to enable infrastructure wifi tether. Thanks for all you do...very much appreciated..
[LG Revolution] nfederic:
Not being able to tether to a tablet was a reason I returned a tab 10.1. Would have kept it if I could have tethered to it.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
I know that my old Fascinate I had to edit through qpnst to get it to work, and Verizon has modified how that is written in there. I will look into it though!!!
[LG Revolution] jphillips.hd88:
I don't know how far they have gone with the tab, but my xoom has a rom that enables it to connect ad-hoc, thus removing that problem...

my issue is the ps3...thinking on getting rid of the cable modem to save some scratch
