Sigh. I gonna get stuck at this phone until 2013 if there are no good $0 phone available. I hope that at least Optimus Net is at Singtel and $0....

This is an extra reason for acquired this phone :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] raylgo:
There was a half-off introductory sale for the Optimus One last year. I read about it and it became a snap decision to get one. Half off was 6500 pesos (around 151 dollars) unlocked. My friend and I went to the mall at 9.30 am (it opened at 10am) and sneaked into an open fire escape / side entrance and sat there until 2pm.

We were the first ones there, even before the employee who opened the store arrived. Then he shooed us away since it was against their agreement with the mall to have a crowd before the actual sale. When 10am hit, we heard a stampede of people running towards the store and before we knew it, we went from first to 17th... :mad:

I failed the upcoming exam because we stayed there and couldnt focus on reading. Then I failed the next exam since I bricked my phone within the week of getting it. Good thing the warranty was still there.

This phone is awesome :D Thank you talented developers of xda for making it super awesome!

very good phone within my budget~!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] DaXmax:
Oh, u bought it at where? U cant upgrade contract is it?:eek:
[Optimus One, P500, V General] terratrix:
Singtel shop.....my Optimus one is just 4 months or less old...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] DaXmax:
At least ur one can upgrade, mine can't cuz is 2nd hand lol:p Actually all my phones are 1st hand, this is my first 2nd hand... :rolleyes:
[Optimus One, P500, V General] deetailed:
Because I don't have enough money to buy SGS... Well, technically I *have* enough for an SGS but I have other bills to pay too :P

At first I only wanted to buy a Galaxy Mini because it's a popular entry-level Android in my country, but when I compared LDPI and MDPI display, LDPI just doesn't cut it. O1 and Galaxy Gio is just a little more expensive, so I had a change of candidates. I asked my brother who's an Android apps developer which one is better, O1 or Gio. He answered O1 in a heartbeat, saying it got the award for best android phone of the year in a major local gadget fair back in June 2011.

Gio has nicer body design and better camera, plus it's stable at 800 MHz although the processor uses the same type of chip as O1. But O1 wins at RAM, developer community support, and some say battery life. After seeing several reviews and deciding to trust my brother, I bought O1. No regrets at all! (though I still think Gio looks better)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] DeuxEx:
I have a friend working for LG and him provide me this phone at a low price - 100 euro. It was a good deal for me!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] fnixirix:
thats cheap... new or 2nd hand? :eek:
[Optimus One, P500, V General] gekko69:
Because you can get it new for 150 EUR and have good ROMs/kernels to choose from.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] MechanicaIMan:
Because, as others have said, this phone is dirt-cheap. In the US, the Optimus T is available for as little as $90 - $100 USD without a contract. The better Android phones are significantly more expensive. And because so many people own this phone, there is good community support for it.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] dryhte:
Cheap, very decent specs (mainly 512MB RAM like last year's high-end phones), promise of GB update.

I paid about 128€ last november (and it's been for sale even cheaper since then).

I'm very happy with the phone, though I'm contemplating an Xperia Mini Pro (because of the physical keyboard; I'm kinda inaccurate and slow with the onscreen keyboard; and because of the ARMv7 processor)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] infomedia0:
Good question well mine is an interesting situation. I had purchased a black berry torch before getting this phone. I.did not like it as I was an ex iphone user I needed apps.

My friend had this phone it had a big screen and.looked nice also I was not that sure how I would like android, and did not want to end up wasting money like I did with the blackberry ,.so I bought this.

Next phone samsung galaxy.s2
[Optimus One, P500, V General] hsingh1993:
I wanted to buy samsung galaxy s but my father told no as its price was a bit higher so i bought optimus one but now im happy with it:). guess ill have to wait another year for high end device phone.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] JastaPein:
alot of O1 user said that its a decent cheap android phone :) well' that's true ...

and O1 works like an expensive high-end device ^_^

thanx for all developers of O1.. .
[Optimus One, P500, V General] p0werb1t:
Yes, and it has good battery and support at xda too.

Unfortunately it has a ARMv6 processor so no Flash support (at least officially from Adobe). But with many flash advertisments on Web pages, it saves more power/battery, because it can't show them :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Turducken:
Until Google/Manufactures/Carriers declare a Product Lifecycle, like Windows, Ubuntu, etc. I will NEVER buy a high end Android smartphone.

To be honest computing technology has reached the age of "good enough".

Example of a desktop PC - A 4Ghz Quad Core is awesome but a 2Ghz Dual Core is good enough for most of us and will be for a while.

My opinion - The smartphone advertising/marketing juggernaut seems hell bent on convincing us that our smartphone is a status symbol, and it's working. I'd like to think us O1 users are smart enough to see through the BS ;)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] jayvisionnet:
This is a surprisingly snappy phone. Cost $105. after tax with no contract, high end phones cost $500.+ before tax with no contract. Way more responsive than my G1. My G2 broke. This little phone feels almost as responsive as my overclocked G2 did. For the price this phone ROCKS!

If you need a very useable phone for cheep, this phone can't be beat.

What's the best rom for this phone?

Buy the xda premium app and show your support!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Feeshie:
Another P509 user as well. I've been using Mik's Cm7 for ages and its probably one of the best.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] deetailed:
Indeed. Plenty of people only use their phones for calls, SMS, push email and facebook yet pay for lots of other functionalities they never think of using. Same goes for PCs.

But with regards to status symbol, as far as enough people in the 'right' communities believe it, it's true. Few cares that your Huawei IDEOS X5 has mad specs, it'll still be 'China Phone' to some and a Blackberry released last year is still more recognised as higher class. For some of us who needs to deal with people like that to earn their livelihoods, sometimes rational considerations have to give in to 'status symbol' usage.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] burgudoy:
simple reason for me...

I googled it, and flooded by a lot of decent reviews
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Sorcerer86pt:
Best Quality/Price

At the time, it had the best quality/price ratio of all the android phones in Portugal
[Optimus One, P500, V General] JanusMagus:
Nice baterry/performance for the price, i bought this to start exploring the android development world.. i think it's very good for me, i don't need more power, for now:p
[Optimus One, P500, V General] rpankaj:
I went to buy apple ipod touch 4 on mah b'day back in may 2011 but unfortunately, it was hell lot costly than US (15.5k for 8gb)..

So I decided to check out some phones.. Android was priority.. finally settled with optimus one.. n no regrets for ipod touch.. can do all stuffs than ipod do+ its a phone too..I will get ps vita for gaming anyways..

OPTIMUS ONE ROXX..

I wanted to get the galaxy three. But optimus one features were way better. Also, optimus one was a top selling phone!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ebe_robert:
I bought it because it had the best specs with respect to my Budget :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] cris7i:
I needed a new phone so i had to chose between O1,X8 or Samsung i5500.The choice was obvious.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] metacircle:
I wanted a good android phone that didn't cost more than 150 euros. O1 had the best price/performance ratio at that time. Today I would spend couple of bucks more and get a nexus s if I was in need of a new phone which I am not. :)

I was able to buy two Optimus T's for $100 bucks and I wanted an easy phone to learn rooting and flashing on.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Asovse1:
It was $60 off-contract on Boxing Day. I already own an HTC Legend, so I know how slow and bad this thing is. But I wanted a toy. I got this device for one LEGO set and a half in equivalence!

Dev is pretty slow for us Legend users, we only have a few ROMs on Gingerbread, we've seen better days.

BUT THIS THING. THIS THING HERE. WOWEE!! It makes you want to embrace and love Android SO MUCH MORE!

This thing's a pretty beast too. It's very beautiful. The screen is quite bright, albeit not like my AMOLED counterpart, and the GPS is instantaneously responsive. What the hell kind of GPS is it? I have Airplane Mode on, besides GPS, with WiFi off, and it fixes to 10m from below my basement! With signals of 30s from each satellite!! MY LEGEND CAN'T DO THAT! NEITHER CAN MY FRIEND'S GIO. THIS THING IS ON DRUGS.

...and I am deeply in love with it.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geordie 34:
just in case you have flashed the kernal for unlocked bootloaders and you went into panic like i did because xrecovery had gone, no fear its still there just you boot into in differently.

1. switch phone off

2. plug in charger

3. wait for bootscreen as if charging

4. switch on phone (leave usb cable plugged in)

5. Phone will boot straight into recovery

6. To restart just click on reboot as usual in xrecovery

Have you dowloaded and installed the correct drivers, usb debugging checked, fastboot checked, phone connected to pc using HTC sync mode?
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Errrrr, have you unpacked the archive? Not trying to say that you are stupid, just a good old "check simple things first" thing. Also, did you follow revolutionary how to?
[HTC Sensation] El Daddy:
Also, make sure your virus scanner isn't running.
[HTC Sensation] Nismo6677:
I have the same problem. I tried on a different computer and at first revolutionary would go on but as soon as I installed HTC drivers it would immediately close. I tried uninstalling HTC sync but it still does it. Idk how to fastboot check I understan alot of android stuff but then my last 2 devices where a captivate and then an infuse so those were simple for root. lol I am a noob though when it comes to getting this much in depth. Any suggestions? I feel stupid asking this cause I have flashed a ton of roms in the past.
[HTC Sensation] Nismo6677:
Figured it out I used the drivers that came with sync when you need to use th ones from revolutionary
[HTC Sensation] steve36:
any help on how to use the drivers that came with revolutionary not sync please
[HTC Sensation] howjord:
Just make sure you can connect via HTC sync then exit htc sync and make sure it is closed completley. give it a second and run revolutionary again
[HTC Sensation] luketheluke:
Revolution Doesnt work for me!

Hey guys i cant get Revolution to work. I'm having the same problem. Flashes and then goes off without running.

I have installed the htc drivers(from revolution site), enabled debugging, connected via htc sync(then closed it), extracted the .zip file and run the .exe.

I cant find an option to disable fastboot. I dont have a power in settings and in applications there is no option for fastboot. I'm running a t-mobile 2.2.1 android.

HELP!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Flyview:
Hi guys,

I just came from CM7 to this CM6 by Milaq. Love it, everything is much faster, always enough RAM.

I did 3 wipes, flashed ROM through OpenRecovery, reboot, flash gapps for HDPI, reboot, and then restored some apps with titanium backup.

I'm having some issues, I'll list them in order of how much they're bothering me:

1) A bunch of system apps aren't showing up in the market and therefore aren't getting updated. Ex. Facebook, youtube, twitter, etc. What do I do and why did this happen?

2) Titanium backup seems to fail at restoring data for a lot of apps (ex. Shazam, LauncherPro, ColorNote, etc). At the very least I want my Shazam tags back. It doesn't say it fails, it says it's successful but once you open the app, the data isn't there. Interestingly enough, the data IS there in /data/data, at this point basically just taking up space. Now I'm wondering how many apps it restored data to which the data just sits there, useless.

3) The custom LED blink frequency in HandcentSMS just broke. It was working fine until I turned the CM setting "succession" on, and then off. Basically now the LED either blinks as it wants to (no matter what setting), or will stay on if I choose the "Default" setting OR a custom setting with 0 for the "off time."

HELP please?!?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] janosik47:
I have had similar problems with market some time ago once switched from CM7 to CM6. I did several cleanups of the marked data and even full wipe plus SD card cleanup (there are some system folders) and suddenly it helped. Can't confirm what are the correct steps to recover from the problem ...

Additionaly had an impression the Google backup is causing some troubles so disabled it.

Edit:

The led blinking is controled by some hardware device so either you can't change the frequency OR apps controls the led by itself using main CPU, which costs extra battery ...

I stay with apps settings only and not change anything by CM settings and works fine. Every time have beeing playing with CM led settings ends up with some mess I could not recover from.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Flyview:
1) is solved: I fixed the market by rolling back to the old market that is included with gapps. I forgot to write that I had updated to the new one (provided by Milaq though so I thought it'd be fine). All apps are seen now.

3) As for the LED, I know what you mean, as soon as you touch CM settings it gets messed up!!! How can I reset the CM settings? Tried data wipe through titanium backup on CM settings but it didn't do a thing... This is gonna bother me to no end.

EDIT: I somehow managed to find this thread: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/18051-solid-led-notifications/

Going to CM settings, selecting Succession and then clicking cancel at the dialog box seems to have brought the blinking frequency function back to handcent. Although...it's kind of buggy, doesn't alway blink properly. But at least some change is visible now. Does your led listen perfectly to on and off times?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] janosik47:
I do not use Handcent just the stock app and do not chage the CM led settings and everything works as expected.

In case seriuos problems Titanium Backup + full wipe is OK for me

I love this phone. Will buy it if the audio and yellow tint issue is not there on this one. I love the size as well as don't think it wont fit my pocket. Great combination of phone and tablet in one. And remember G2 itself is usually much more powerful than most of the tablets! If this phone has better audio, will definitely go for it.

[HTC EVO 3D] berto55:
I rooted my evo 3d using the htc method, I have superuser,I have clockwork. The problem is when try install a rom(synergy)it keeps saying signature verification failed, installation aborted. Oh and I cant get into recovery thru clockwork i have to do thru a terminal.
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
clockwork has an option to "toggle" or turn off signature verification. i'd select this option and the ROM should flash.

hope that helps!
[HTC EVO 3D] berto55:
I dont see that option. how do you get to it?
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
cwm main screen -> install zip from sdcard -> toggle signature verification

make sure when you select that option, it toggles the signature verification. make sure to toggle the status to off.

hope that helps, good luck!
[HTC EVO 3D] berto55:
Now, im just getting installation aborted.
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
common causes for this error are: corrupt ROM downloads or flashing a ROM designed for a different phone or the ROM is scripted incorrectly.

recovery provides more details around the specific error in /tmp/recovery.log

the easiest way i use to access is through adb shell

cat /tmp/recovery.log

if you want to paste the log file up here with the error, we can help you troubleshoot.

hope that helps!
[HTC EVO 3D] chillenandy321:
Try a different recovery. TWRP is what I use and seems to be alot better than CWM
[HTC EVO 3D] berto55:
Do you think me not being able to get into recovery mode thru boot might have something to do with the problem?
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
i wouldn't think the issues are related but it is really hard to say without having physical access to the device what has or hasn't been done.

simple method for access custom recovery:

when you turn on the device with volume down + pwr, it should boot to the white screen, bootloader and present a few options. when you select recovery, it should boot into the custom recovery.

when you follow these steps you don't get a custom recovery? which step is there an error on? what is the error? can you screenshot?

the more detail you're able to provide the better we can help troubleshoot!
[HTC EVO 3D] berto55:
When I get in the boot menu and try to go into recovery it doesnt it just reboots the phone. When I first get in boot mode I see some alot of green text and it says sd loading no image PB86DIAG.ZIP and some other stuff
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
interesting .. the green text and search for the *diag.zip files definitely indicates you are in the bootloader.

my guess as to why it doesn't boot into recovery but reboots the phone must be the error handling. not sure what the exact error is as it doesnt seem to give any output to you.

sounds as if something *might* be corrupted. the best steps at this point would be to reload a custom recovery.

let us know how it goes!
