[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BouncingBandit:
Suggest a stable rom for the lg p500

Hello,

I need your help in flashing a stable ROM to my LG P500. Here is how I started out:

1. Updated from Froyo to GB using the LG software update tool.

2. Rooted the device with the SupeOneClick method. [Took me more than 2 hours to figure out this 1 minute job]

3. Installed ClockworkMod Recovery 5.0.*.* and flashed with the ICS ROM. [Faced flashboot error and spent one who sleepless night over trying to recover my phone which I thought was soft/hard bricked]

4. Upgraded to ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.4.6 and flashed with CM11/v11 KitKat [Issues with Gallery were noticed]

5. Upgraded to CM11/v12 Kitkat and presently running on it. [Issues with Mobile Data as it does not work, simple things like USSD code to know balance does not work, cannot get WAP & GPRS settings to my phone, battery drain is quite high without wi-fi and data plan, some inbuilt apps like voice dialer and others do not work due to unexpected errors]

Here are some things I do not know but I have read about them:

1. Flashing with KDZ tool.

2. TWRP? - What is that?

3. Installing gapps - I know it has something to do with Google Apps but my ROM installations did not require this update.

My request:

Since you now know what I have tried out in the past and my can guess my standard of proficiency in handling ROM flashing, I would like you to tell me the following:

1. I need a STABLE ROM for my device, Even older ones do not matter at this point.

2. In order to flash the device with the suggested ROM in the above point, which version of ClockworkMod Recovery do you suggest.

At this point in my phones life, I am looking forward to get the maximum benefit out of the phone with minimum fuss. Please take some time out from your schedule and give me your answers to my 2 questions preferably with links to the download files.

Thank You very much.

Also, mukulsoni - you are the MAN!
