I just did hard reset and reinstalled apps using titanium backup. It is a little bit faster but nothing revolutionary. The soft is definitely not optimized for this hardware. Reminds me of early days of Atrix 4G. As everyone thinks the dev support will be fairly limited, although there wont be any obsticles like with Atrix when the bootloader was locked for months. With Go Launcher setup took me 20 min to do it.
[LG Nitro HD] dnorthington:
There are a lot of posts in there and I'm not sure which are valid and which are not. I'll post in that thread and ask the OP to update.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
why would any of it be invalid?
[LG Nitro HD] dnorthington:
I don't mean invalid per se, just that it's not clear which of the items might cause boot issues. It would be nice to have a list of which are bloat apps that can be uninstalled normally, which are bloat that must be uninstalled using Titanium Backup, which are more process oriented items that can still be uninstalled, and which are things someone definitely should not freeze or uninstall.

Really more of a corralling of what's already out there in an updated OP.

Custom Recovery AmonRA-GNM 2.2.1 for Optimus Me P350 installation Guide​

This is an easy installable version of Recovery for Optimus Me.First I want to thanks drapalyuk for creating a Recovery mod for Optimus Me P350.This post is based on the [RECOVERY] Custom Recovery AmonRA-GNM 2.2.1 for Optimus Me P350 post.

How To :

first you must root your device with Gingerbreak

then install Busybox from market (free)

Download the zip file to your computer

Recovery installer.zip

ON PC :

ON Mobile :

open the gscript application which is already installed by the PC automatically to your phone

Note : when press the script in the last part it will ask for super user permission clickallow button
[LG Optimus Me P350] vivekkalady:
Reserved for you Guys to click thanks Button :)

[LG Optimus Me P350] franshie06:
my phone won't turn on after flashing... help pls..
[LG Optimus Me P350] vivekkalady:
Dude !!!

Dont post this type of posts in this thread

others will think that you flashed the recovery and got bricked your phone

please edit the above thread and tell your actual problem like you flashed using kdz updater and the bricked.I have already PMed.
[LG Optimus Me P350] kalluf:
After clicking on the .bat file, it does put gscript app on my phone, but it can't find the script.sh file on the sd card (there's no gscript folder as well).

Should I try the installer again? Create the folder and copy the file?

Nevermind, it's working now. I just don't know how to keep going from there. How do I install a new ROM?
[LG Optimus Me P350] h3ckboy:
After I click on the script, it does blue screen and then reboots, but not into recovery mode it just starts up like normal.

Thanks :).
[LG Optimus Me P350] nerotNS:
I had this problem too (tho i flashed manually) but when i reflashed it worked fine.But before you try reflashing it try to boot the phone into recovery using ADB

Here is how:

Plug your phone in and enable debugging.

Then open ADB and type in su and hit enter after that type reboot recovery and again enter.If you flashed the recovery correctly your phone should boot into recovery. :D Hope that helps
[LG Optimus Me P350] fslade:
Hello!

Your tutorial is quite good and very helpful.

Everything worked as you described.

But, after the blue screen, I had an issue: my phone stops at Fastboot mode. Then I get the message "udc_start()" and it stops there, nothing happens. It doesn't start android. Can you tell how to proceed from there?

Thank in advance!

Best,

F
[LG Optimus Me P350] eliak:
does this work???
[LG Optimus Me P350] nerotNS:
If ripping out the battery didn't help then you need to flash the recovery via fastboot.Since your phone automatically boots into bootloader ( the udc_start () state) you need to download fastboot flasher ( you can find it via google or xda search) and flash recovery from there.Just make sure you are flashing the right recovery.And then from the recovery you can flash a custom rom.
[LG Optimus Me P350] nerotNS:
You boot into recovery and navigate to backup (in order to make nandroid backup-you can skipp this step but you won't have a stock android backup in case you dont like the new rom or it doesn't work) than navigate to flash zip from sdcard(obviously you need the rom on the sdcard) and then select the rom and then confirm flash.After that you should see a yellow progress bar after the flash is complete you reboot your device.Oh and just in case you didn't know you navigate using up and down volume buttons you confirm with menu button and you cancel/go back with back button
[LG Optimus Me P350] nerotNS:
People say it does personally i haven't tried it (because i flashed mine manually) but i highly doubt that Vivek would post something that doesn't work.
[LG Optimus Me P350] lottumeb:
I did it differently because there is no working link of the recovery.zip

after rooting the phone with gingerbreak, simply download ROM Manager from play store and flash recovery from there.
[LG Optimus Me P350] michaelga67:
hi i need original rom 2.2.2 for my phone in zip form so i can put on my sd card and flash dose anybody have this and if so could they upload it for me thanks
[LG Optimus Me P350] osamabinary:
Works nicely! However, I had to follow the following procedure:

- Disconnect the USB cable

- Start in fastboot mode

- Type the command in the PC (it should says something like "Waiting for device")

- Connect the USB cable

Without using this procedure, I would get stuck in "Waiting for device". Hope it helps someone.

Hello everybody,

I got myself my very first Android phone yesterday, and I'm really glad with all of it's features, but I'd like to root it, the problem is is that it's running on kernelversion XWKJ3 and I can't find any thread, post, video, etc about if it actually IS possible to root the phone on this kernel, because according to some videos I need a speciffic kernel to root the phone, and I just can't find any, and I'm out of ideas. I don't know if it doesn't matter what kernel you need, or anything, and I can't seem to find it either.

Thanks already for just taking your time to read this,

easiest way to do it would be to deactivate it and then either use a custom launcher to hide the apps, or get a locking app and password protect the phone and whatever else app. then you don't need to have a custom rom or anything and you still know the password if you did need to access those apps in an emergency.

[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
I'm almost positive that this can be done, but I don't know how simple it is. I would like a way to make the pattern/PIN/password not happen immediately upon screen lock. Anyone who has used an iPhone has probably seen this option...you can make it not show the PIN screen until a specific time has passed...if you unlock the screen before that timeframe, it resets the timer.

Here's why I say I'm almost positive this is possible: the last company I worked for made this happen automatically when you used their Exchange email server. I could lock my screen, and it would not ask for my PIN if I unlocked it again immediately. I couldn't specify the timeout, but it seemed like it was about 5 minutes. I used ozmail, and I know it did it though the device administrator somehow, so I'm thinking it may have to be done programatically, but I'm hoping there's an easier way.

Any ideas?
[Verizon Droid Charge] nednednerb:
All I do is turn my screen off manually when it goes in pocket. Then 10 min later timeout/lock time has passed but any time before then, screen turns on without having locked.

But in display settings I see "screen timeout" and in security settings I see "lock phone after period of inactivity".

I can set them to differ... Maybe it's your ROM.
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
Charge roms only have display timeout. It doesn't have a separate lock timeout, and we don't have any roms not based on stock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nutzzer:
All,

I'm itching to root and install the 4.03 Roms but want to see the process for the official release.

My main question is in regards to the LTE/CDMA 4.03 Rom if it will have the Verizon patches/fixes ie signal strength, kernel, latest radios........

If so, then I will start the rooting this weekend, if not, then I'll wait till the official version.

Thanks for any info.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] voxigenboy:
I decided to give 4.0.3 a go not too long ago and it has helped in some ways. For starters, with the leaked 4.0.3 radio I have noticed that signal strength has improved a bit(not dramatically or anything, but still counts). I'm also using the AXI0M 2.1 ROM(waiting for 2.2 link to be fixed) and noticed that it has also been positive. The phone doesn't have as much lag issues and at least idle battery life has improved(battery still drains just as fast while in use though).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mikeyinid:
What we have here is a rooted, odexed/stock ROM zip. This is for ALL the people asking what is and what is not safe to remove. I have taken everything I consider bloat out and left everything needed for a functional ROM. Only bugs here will be Samsung bugs.

The only thing I added to this was Launcher2 and GB keyboard as well as aosp icons which I like better than the colorful Samsung icons. TW launcher is still there, just thought Id give the option for the more aosp look.

DOWNLOAD

Flash THIS if you want stock Samsung icons and a truly stock ROM. Flash it over the ROM.

Instructions;

If flashing over another Samsung ROM a wipe is probably not necessary, but I would suggest a clean install, formatting data/system/cache and then flashing.

I highly recommend using THIS kernel, best performance and battery Ive seen.
