If I replace system apps with apps from AOSP, I'll change density to lower (it'll look better).

But I've done so far: fully deodexed, changed few apps (i.e. keyboard, calculator), more than 30 tweaks, CM audio system, ICS home screen.

If someone would test - it'll be great. One person to test... it's not good.

I haven't this handset, so I can't test everything (i.e. wifi working).

E: Apps need to be replaced, cuz they crash if density is changed.

Install it, connect your phone, let windows install its drivers.

Then proceed to this website, http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=12 find your country and download the .kdz file, and flash your phone using it. Should unbrick it.

Thanks to Payback from 4pda forum,

we now have bootloader unlock also for E610 (the previous unlock was for E612)

http://www.mediafire.com/?067lw76epu2mwdf

I tested it right now and it gives no reboots also with 10L firmware, and it shouldn't give problems as crash during phone calls (unlike unlock for E612)

And apparently it's compatible with the last CWM6,

Maybe we need to open a new thread strictly for developing/porting
