Here's the dope after much experimentation:

A system app when upgraded, the upgrade becomes a user app but the original stays in place! If one goes to the "manage apps," one can uninstall the upgrades only, not the original! I removed the Phonesky (and Gmscore) (using link2sd) and then my upgraded (actually side-loaded as a user app from XDA and then upgraded) play (the "vend") and gms first worked OK (as they had under ICS with NO system app version!) but then started the old fc thing.

So I removed my user versions and adb pushed the Phonesky and Gmscore from one of the gapps zips. On reboot, one new app was "optimised." The Gms app immediately upgraded (new version as user app). I await a similar upgrade for the Phonesky/Vend (or I could restore mine--the Phonesky is a version 3.7.#, my user Vend app was version 3.8.17.--see no real differences).

Looks like the upgraded version is what actually runs but one must keep the originals around (taking up valuable /system space).

Use link2sd to integrate update to system
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ltdrifter:
Ok, I'll give that a shot. Thanks.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Dovidhalevi:
What do you mean here?

Link2sd can symlink to its sdext (which is what it does automatically).

Link2sd can be used to make the update itself a system app (which would only be a saving if the original is actually replaced--they have had differing names!).

To solve the "notification Blur" i report what we've done in our italian forum:

you change in the build.prop file (folder /system) this line:

Notification sound vs Ringtone Volume?

In CM9 you can turn down the notification volume but then the ringtone volume turns down also... Is there some way I can split the settings between these two? Will it be implemented in the CM10 port? Thanks! :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] shinobisoft:
Set your Volume Panel to expanded. Then scroll down, you should see a checkbox that ties the Ringtone and Notification tones together.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] HighMans:
Nevermind, I found it in the sound settings. Thanks! :)

gaaps problem

Rashed I've flashed the latest build and the latest gaaps you've posted. But I have no google Play in my applications list. I already added a google account on the phone from the settings, it asked me there to agree upon the google play conditions and informed me that the device will be synched as it always would in the past, but still no google play! So now I can't download any apps. Adding to this when I reboot in recovery mode and try to mount the sd-card while I have my phone connected to the PC it won't actually mount it. Nothing happens. Would that be a possible driver issue? And how is that possible since the drivers were fine a month ago when I flashed your previous build on my phone.

Thanx for your time, and really great work!

I believe Rashed works on the kernel in conjunction with his ROM.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] shinobisoft:
The inability of ADB to connect to the device in recovery mode is NOT a driver issue. It's a recovery issue. Apparently the recovery you are using does not have USB debugging enabled, hence, no device detection.

Unless you flash the GApps package after freeing some space on your system partition, you aren't gonna have Play Store or anything else along those lines. Play Store is NOT packaged in the ROM. You apparently didn't do all required wipes or something screwed up along the way. My suggestion is to do a clean install. Wipe data, cache, dalvik cache. Format system. Flash ROM. Reboot into ROM. Free space. Reboot into Recovery and flash GApps.zip. Reboot. You're done.

---------- Post added at 08:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:24 PM ----------

You're reply to this person was incorrect. It is not a bug. It's a space limitation on our devices. If you want to act like you know what you're saying, at least get your facts straight. :p Ease up on the noobs too, no offense, but you're still a noob bro.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mixednuts:
Maybe it was easier to just say that it was a bug? Patience is definitely a virtue, but not always easy to act upon.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mixednuts:
Unless your partial to accessing your device via ADB, you could also use Aroma File Manager within your recovery to lean things up before flashing gapps. Replace the LatinIME.apk with one from here (bill.weckel).

[Optimus One, P500, V General] Bob Arctor:
I dont want to spread false rumors about changing kernels... flashing DjNoxd's kernel along with cache/dalvik cache wipe did solve the battery life issue but only for a few days than I got massive battery drain again...

At this point I did a full wipe flashed the ROM. Than davisnt's script for apps linking and at last gapps (so no adreno fix). Now everything's fine again but I still dont know what causes the battery issue... the only thing I'm sure of is that it's not related to the ROM itself.

I now think it could be two things : adreno libs or google now which is installed but not initialized yet on my current setup. I tried to check if google now was the cause by disabling all it's functionnalities on my previous installation but with no luck...

I will let you know when i find out more.

Sometimes install_failed_invalid_apk with link2sd

Hi,

a few APPs can not be moved by link2sd. A [install_failed_invalid_apk] error occurred. PicSayPro, SmartTools, Paper Camera or Cut the Ropw are examples, around 10 % of my APPs can't be moved. I reinstalled these APPs or moved it to the phone, nothing helps. Maybe a link2sd problem, but I couldn't found something about it. Any ideas'?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Dovidhalevi:
This looks like what I get trying to convert a system app to a user app. Not all can be so converted but others can be -- many gapps for example. This was easier on CM9 where provision was made to help with this. CM10 does not have this aid.

One can try to do in manually:

1. Copy the app to /data/app/

2. Remove from /system/app/

3. Reboot

4. Try to run from the app drawer. If this works, then use link2sd to link or move where possible. Now a legal user app.

5. If the app will not run, it can be remade a system app using link2sd or simply move it back to /system/app/ and reboot.

Hello all

I am a good friend of Rashed97's, who recently commissioned me to make a desktop app to visually help users change commenly changed things in their ROM's/.apks. In the end, I created an extendable tab-based patcher program written in Java with currently two functions, removing unwanted dictionaries in the LatinIME.apk, and removing unwanted wallpapers in the Trebuchet.apk. YOu can select an individual .apk in each tab, or select a whole ROM .zip. It is fully extendable via the Tab abstract class, so people can make their own functions and put them right in the jar.

You can view development/download here (I dont have 10 posts yet so I broke up the link: github .com/lgics /APK_Patcher

We all know your Mac VM never works with Java, but okay. The VM flag is -XstartOnFirstThread I know I'm preaching to the choir but make sure all Java 6's are unchecked and you have the latest Java 7. If the JRE doesn't work, get the JDK.

How much space do I need to provide to flash GAPPS?

Hi,

I'm still newbie on installing JB on LG P500.

BTW, How much space do I need to provide for flashing the GAPPS?

Where is the system path? is it the root / path or /system path I should clear some space?

Which file/folder I can delete to clear some space on the system?

Regards,

ayrus02
[Optimus One, P500, V General] abanka27:
System path is the /system folder in the root directory . You can access it by using a file manager like es file manager. I deleted the following apps:

Exchange apps

Live wallpaper

Live wallpaper picker

Noise Field

Visualization wallpapers and many others.

I also swapped the LatinIme.apk in apps and DroidSansFallback.TTF with a smaller version
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ayrus02:
Need more space...

OK, I've manage to clear some space up about 14.8MB, and I've tried to flash the GAPPS, but only the Google Play successfully installed, no Maps, Gmail, etc.

I think by looking Zip size of GAPPS, I need to clear about 44MB of system space.

Where can I find the smaller version of DroidSansFallback.TTF...??

Now I will clean install again to try free more space on system partition.

Regards,

ayrus02
[Optimus One, P500, V General] abanka27:
I don't think there are Maps and gmail in the light gapps they eat up a lot of space. As for the droidsansfallback you gotta search this thread. Copy it to system/ fonts ( and remove the one already present) and set its permissions to rw-r-r

Just wanted to drop in and say Thanks! This ROM has been my daily driver for a while (started with build 4, now on 5). It runs perfectly stable and I've yet to find anything that doesn't work (aside from HW video of course). I even get WAY better battery life in build 5 as compared to 4.

So again, Thank You Rashed! Great job!!

[Optimus One, P500, V General] mixednuts:
Storage space issue - need to trim down the ROM after flashing, then flash gapps. Also, try using smaller versions of LatinIME.apk
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Dovidhalevi:
Yes, and this is the best way to get them.

Note that besides the two Play apk's Phonesky and Gmscore, and possibly all those little "provider" apks, the rest are not needed on a gapps flash but being there is a convenience (but one that takes system space).

VoiceSearch, TTS, can both be installed from Play.

I have the new QuickSearchBox (Velvet) installed as a user app (Google Search is on Play but that version will not work on our phones).

Certainly, all the big apps like Drive, Maps, gmail, etc., should not be on a gapps flash for our phones and are install-able from Play. Others, on the ROM, like browsers, keyboards and calendar, are also on Play and can be user apps, freeing more system space. Use link2sd or other such utilities or MODs to get them off /data.

To all the people intrested in the patcher I posted earlier, I am working on an update to include delete unwanted fonts from a ROM and download extra .apk's that didnt make it in to the ROM - stay tuned! Coming up maybe is app-management, to download extra .apk's AND remove ones in an existing ROM!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] hobi777:
You could try flashing a previous version of the ROM. Wipe data, wipe cash, dalvik. Flash the rom (built4), flash gapps (light). Reboot. Then just flash the latest built (5). Wipe dalvik (alwais wipe dalvik and cache). Then reboot and you're good to go. Hope this helps. This also worked for me when I couldn't find the google play store.

P.S: What I also did, after it all worked, I made a backup. Just in case ( for future builts) ;)

I have noticed that sometimes the screen won't get back from sleep, it freezes (blackout) even though the phone remains operational (just display is dead). Has anybody else experienced the same?

[Optimus One, P500, V General] felipe257:
You can follow what is being done here . Rashed won't publish build 6 before triple buffering is working. I think we should have improvements in camera and voice-related features. Many other items are marked as resolved, testing and coded in the aforementioned link.

Make sure that you wipe everything (except for your SD card, of course) and flash again. You did make a backup, right?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Dovidhalevi:
Great idea but remember that /system/app/ fills up pretty quickly.

Anything (and that includes googleTTS, various keyboards, filemanagers, browsers, mailers, and such) that can be installed from Play should be installed that way and then moved/linked off internal storage which also fills up pretty quickly.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] REDX36:
It's mostly for convenience, and for the apps that don't come in play.

I was browsing some other LG devices forums in XDA and I have noticed that video recording in JB is also an issue in some LG armv7 devices. In one of these ROMs the developer suggests the install of VideoCam Illusion as a workaround for the recording issue of the native app. I therefore thought it would be a chance to have video recording working in p500. Unfortunately it didn't work, but I found that the VideoCam Illusion gives a (apparently) different reason for the recording failure: issues with audio recording. I don't know how much it helps Rashed but thought it would be good to share it "just in case"...

boot loop

Since I started using 3G phone did shut down due to low battery past 3-4 times this week. Now I am stuck in a bootloop. Can't access recovery mode or emerygency mode.

I do remember removing the Trebuchet launcher since the last boot. Even when I had Apex as the default, every reboot Trebucher errors, and i had to select Apex (always use). Now that I have removed Trebuchet, its gone into a boot loop

Why can I not get to recovery/emergency modes? Is it because of low battery?

Sometimes, when battery drains totally, phone acts weird. Usually corrects itself after charging. Guys please let me know how to solve this issue. TIA
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mixednuts:
Fully charge. Home Button + Volume Up + Power Button for recovery.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Kail2011:
Thanks mixednuts, I do know the shortcuts.. just that they are not working. With the continuous boot loops, there is no way to check if the battery is actually charging or how much.

LG logo flashes on recovery mode, yellow screen flashed on Emergency mode - only for a second. Then goes into boot loop again.

**AddedLater - got into recovery after some charging. Is there any way to set Apex as the default launcher, without it asking on every reboot?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mixednuts:
Normally, if you have more than one launcher installed, the OS will ask you to set the default launcher when the Home button is pressed.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Kail2011:
I do set the default launcher, but phone doesnt remember the selection beyond a reboot. Yesterday installed latest build without clearing anything.

Question : How to make and keep a launcher as default? How to safely remove Trebuchet?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] shinobisoft:
The only way to not get prompted after reboot, is to only have one launcher installed. Use something like Link2Sd or ES File Explorer to uninstall what ever launcher(s) you don't want, including Trebuchet. Just remember to have a fall back launcher installed prior to removing all other launchers, or you'll get stuck for sure.

You never need to wipe battery stats. It gets cleared anyways on a reboot.
