Hey buddy i am not talking abt system folder its all abt data folder...

Step to follow

After fresh install

1. Install latest root explorer

2. Go to storage tab delete all folders except android folder if nothing is installed.

Check storage info memory.

Done.

Secondly there is no problem whether it says p760 or p765

All rom or mods of p760 is compatible with p765.

The best rom i have been even used in lg l9, battery is better than stock i think and it is rather better than cm rom which always drains a lot of battery. Apart from, i would like to give few suggestions.

1. Can you add a function that we can close the app immediately when we long press the back key

2. The option for hardware keys is not enough, i. E. Open apps when we long press menu key. For example, we can open lock screen app when we press lock our screen;)

3. The sensitivity of hardware key is not enough, i use normal pressure that sensible by the stock, however, it cannot detect in this rom. The detection for the screen is rather weak too when autorotation is off (i am the one who close the autoratation all the time)

4. Also the menu key to wake the phone. (But u have solved i observed in this post)

Thanks for your attention, i know i have too many request but i think my suggestion can accomplish you rom

Thank you all for the Feedbacks. I am taking all the Suggestions in consideration and will tyy to add/fix them in my Next release.

For Storage Issue,

1) Copy all files in your internal Storage to somewhere safe. (eg. SD CARD or PC)

2) Use ES Explorer (included in this ROM)

3) Go to /storage/emulated/0 and delete all the Files except Android folder.

4) Restart.

It worked for me. Hope it will work for you too.

I will def try this sol.... i had to go back to stock again for daily use...although i prefer SuperLuminal Rom.

speaker volume during a call is still very low & Is it goin to be fixed in the next update?... waitin for the update... apart from the speaker vol problem during call everything is smooth and works brilliantly....
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Eddiejo6:
This ROM is amazing! I love the speed and smoothness of everything! It`s definitely the best rom for the Optimus if you`re looking for performance, this will definitely be my daily driver!

Btw I found a bug for ya, if you use the music shortcut on the lockscreen it will only unlock your phone instead of redirecting you to the walkman app it only unlocks your phone, i even tried to change to shortcut manually to walkman but it still only unlocked my phone. I don`t know if this is a CM bug or a rom specific bug.

EDIT: 2nd bug found: My Bluetooth headset isn`t recognized as a headset again idk if this is a bug in CM cause i only have tested up to RC5.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] rashq:
I had same problem and have reported earlier. Some time switching between 2g and 3g is smooth but sometimes it doesnt respond .

Plus 2g data connection is not easy to get, it takes time and most of the time doesnt connect.

I found one more problem with all roms based on cm. If u switch between 2g and 3g sometimes the network gets blocked. nothing works neither call nor mess.

so came back to stock again:(

Full wipe is recommended but if you are coming from previous version, you can just flash, then wipe only CACHE PARTITION and then DALVIK CACHE. If does not work, then reflash with full wipe. In any case take backup of your required data.

Question to DEV - as I understand kernel is untouched only rom optimisation gives that nice battery life (comparable to stock JB) ? If that is true , rom still should be more battery efficient with other kernel ? ( I think about PAC 3.0.80 :) )

Or in other case can you use this PAC kernel as a base for tweaking .
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] maxver0:
Actually PAC 3.0.80 have huge drain for what i've heard.

Exactly - that is the reason I'm asking about that kernel . 1350 Mhz is bit too high but 1200 is ok .
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] PreemPalver:
3.0.80, max clock set to 1350 MHz

For now battery drain is about 1%/h higher than on stock, on PAC kernel I set - max clock 1200 Mhz, gpu 384 Mhz so it is not big deal . I have all time 3G ON , 3 mail accounts in synchro . Since I have this kerenel no wifi was used . It is not accurate measurements I know , sometimes I get 2.2%/h . I use InteractiveX governor .

I think this kernel is good candidate for daily use after touch of magic hands of antariksh :cool: . It just need maybe few optimisations too work very well with this rom .

One very interesting thing is I have brightnes set about 40-45 % and on this rom display eats about 70 % of battery isn't it abnormal?

You can use any method to Empty the battery. Games, music, movies anything.

But after discharging, charge 100% non-stop.

This rom has Stock LG Audio Drivers, so Ringtone volume should be as loud as Stock.

Try using different custom Ringtones.

Speaker mode during call is weak. It will get solved soon.

Press Thanks if i Helped.

I am wondering, why you want to Swap Internal and External storage? Any specific reason?

FYI, CM just swaps the Mount points of Storage. All the System processes works normally.
