I solved it. as I said the. zip file was not taken within md5. I re-downloaded the file named Empty2.2.1v4.3.zip, and I finally flashed.

I'm not so nOOb at the end! it was just a bad file.

anyway thank you for your patience and do not be arrogant with those who have speech problems and can not understand you well

Congrats for the success, next time when u're download archieved file, open it with winrar and test it first, i do this all the time :)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] desmail:
thank you very much for your advice
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] ZduneX25:
@desmail I ain't arrogant I just wanted to keep your phone alive :p more mods = more chances to brick the phone.

@m1st3r1 agree
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] desmail:
excuse the term does not mean to offend you and I wanted to thank you again for your help and the lesson that you gave me. Maybe I learned something from you I know it's late (here in Italy is only 19:45), so good night

Same here 19:45 it's evening, but see you, good nite :) (your country is under mine, it means the same GMT)

ZduneX25, I cant go back to 2.1, so tried flashing again 2.2 and the phone works again...so I'm gonna keep this, jeje it's scary when your cell seems dead. anyway is there some way to make the camera button works for take pictures and the bluetooth is fully functional now? i'm tried to read from the russian site but I'm not sure.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] ZduneX25:

Hey guys this is my first post

While trying to flash the 2.1 (with fastboot) rom i get an error "PHONE WAS NOT FOUND". Googling didnt get me very far, just some tips on disabling the LG USB Modem which didnt work seeing as it wasnt listed in the device manager at all. (i did disable all lg devices i found and still nothing) The instructions i followed were these :

"******* That's a link to a zip file I created with all the files needed to flash V20B with fastboot, the instructions are inside the readme file inside the zip folder. Note that the V20B with fastboot in the zip folder is the Carphone Warehouse 2.1 version, if you want a different version, click the link I posted above (though it won't really matter what version because you'll be flashing CyanogenMod onto the phone afterwards :P )

*********] That's a link to another zip file I created with all the files needed to flash CyanogenMod to your phone. If you don't flash the phone with it now, the files will most likely become outdated, when Quarx and ankuch update their CyanogenMod ROM, I'll update the files inside the zip folder so it's always up to date. Again the instructions are inside the zip folder

Make sure you follow the instructions exactly as they're written. As always, with flashing your phone, there's always the risk of bricking your phone. I'm not responsible for anything that happens to your phone because of flashing custom firmware.

Hope this helps!

EDIT: 3/1/11 2:12pm CyanogenMod link updated to v4.3 "

Sorry for the asterisk but i am not allowed to post links yet

(So the very first step failed)

I am not really a n00b. Back in the day i was a bit of a nerd but i ve forgotten alot so i guess you could call me a "born again n00b" if you like.

Thanks in advance !

Does anyone know how can I change the shortcuts in the dock of the ADW launcher?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] ZduneX25:
Swipe from menu to the desktop, then swipe from the desktop to the dock.

Drag and drop the shorter way.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] revan17:
I'm sorry but I don't get that; "swipe from the menu to the desktop". When I want to drag an icon from the desktop, the trash icon appears to remove the icon. I don't understand how I can put it in the dock that way.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] ZduneX25:
You're riight I thought that it was ADW, but you can not.

Use another launcher. (ADW looks the same and allow you to add icons to the dock)

Here is LG keyboard IME extracted and uploaded by myself :

(attachment)

Someone on Modaco have uploaded another one:

I can't post the link because I'm new, google "LG IME"

(thread started by Drift_TM, APK uploaded by doubletakeit)

it is supposed to be from a GT540 running Android 2.1

IMO there is no langpack in the two apk, so someone has to register on 4PDA.ru

By the way, the main apk in 4pda.ru should not be the same as mine or the one from modaco because it's a port for galaxy spica

L2DP Audio (BT Headset) works for me with 1.4/4.3 but Exchange Sync is broken, which worked in previous release..
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] idsclipart:
BT file transfer works, but when I tried it with HTC MT100 BT headset I git some weird cracking sounds. This headset worked noramaly with the original 2.1 ROM.

I also have some problems with Layar app, not being able to conect on server (Showing terms...)...

I also can't see the EXT partition on my SD, one I wanted to use again for app2sd modification.

Beside this this Froyo runs pretty smooth, with SetCPU activated.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] idsclipart:
There is a pic of Quadrant benchmark @825Mhz (excelently stable).
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] silent_bob52637:
How in hell did you get that score

I only get 1350 at 900 mhz after factory reset can you explain how
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] silent_bob52637:
btw you no longer need the ext partition for app2sd on 2.2.1

it store all app data in a folder called android secure
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] ZduneX25:
@silent_bob52637 no! firstly allow in CM settings: apps moving, then go to Apps, open one and set move to SD. Do not move system apps: launchers, widgets, etc.

Cos you will get crashes after turning off phone.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] silent_bob52637:
i am really sorry to do this but i want every peice of info you can give

e.g: list of installed apps, which kernel your using, which version of openswift ur using

because and this may sound ****ish the only way i can get that type of score is to run this firmware in an emulator on my quadcore pc

if you cant provide this info i will be forced to call fake

again i dont want to call anyone a liar here as i am not sat in the room with you

but you must see my point i will upload a screenshot of my best score at 900mhz asap
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] silent_bob52637:
1: i have no ext partition on my sd card my phone is storing all the data in android secure

i do not move my apps they auto-install to sd card

and please dont just say, no! could you explain my cockup plz

2: could someone please give me the name of a decent screenshot app that is free on the market
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] idsclipart:
I'm not sure. With former rom (4.2, 1.3) I could't get more than 1200.

I'm (nicely) surprised too.

I'll try one more time now.

Can u get flash player for this phone
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] necrosmash:
Camera still not working

Sorry to bother ye, but the camera is behaving exactly as it was in the older OpenSwift version (for me, anyway). I keep getting a force close error.

I booted into recovery and used the zip that was provided in an earlier post (Empty2.2.1v4.3), and flashed that zip... should that be sufficient?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] idsclipart:
You can call me lucky, but not the layer :)

I did the tests again, and there was not a similar result but the ones I got are stil pretty nice:

I tried @806, @825, @844 & @852. Over these the phone freezes.

I'm running the last ROM on this Topic.

I wish you better results than this:
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] desmail:
try doing a factory reset

attempts to install lg camera from the market
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] desmail:

[GT540 Optimus Android Development] silent_bob52637:
that is very lucky

are you sure you have a gt540 and not something else

i cant get 1390 score no matter what i do

sorry for wanting to call fake five screenshots in a row

every one of them scores higher than i do

i can get 900mhz to run for about twenty mins

and i score 1279 at the 900mhz
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] idsclipart:
Those screenshots are my first ones. I've used Screenshot by GikSoft, and it's OK!

I was keeping it working in background while I did benchmarks, entering it via HOME key shooting with 10 sec delay (even 5 was enogh to reenter Quadrant).

Thank you all for showing me how to move apps to SD.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] idsclipart:
I did absolutely nothing to my phone.

I can film it doing benchmark with my camera.

But let's leave it for some other day, and let me use it for a few days, to see if there would be some slowing down. I'm gona use it @806.

I'm getting up early, and I'm an hour up front to you.

May be todays eclipse is the reason :).
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] silent_bob52637:
Maybe, I can use 880mhz and stable for about 5 hours and then continuous reboots but 852mhz is fine for about a week
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] necrosmash:
Thanks for the help. I tried a factory reset both in the recovery menu and in the phone's normal settings.

I've also tried both the LG Camera from the market and the stock camera.. unfortunately, neither work. The LG Camera app starts fine, but then comes up with an error saying: "Camera problem occurred. Try restart the program and the phone". Only tried one other app; it's also not working.

Touch screen calibration

I just installed this two days ago and it seems... awesome!

Only trouble I have is with the calibration of the screen - or lack of it. After reading everything I've found it just havent been implemented yet, so I was wondering if anyone know of some workaround ?

The middle of the screen is ok, but gets worse and worse towards the edges so I'd really like to calibrate it :)

Does this port include the Bluetooth HID profile, that one would use to use a bluetooth keyboard?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] 1aggelos1:
u dont even need this. u just have to go and settings and there is an option that says "install all applications in external" and u are done. automatically will install in SD anytime u will download an app. otherwise if u dont like this u can select install all apps in internal and then u just find ur app and move it in SD card.

btw, awesome job my quarx and akunch . wow guys
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] 1aggelos1:
there is an option to install automatically all apps in sd , otherwise u can do it manually by going to settings>application>find ur app>move to sd. app2sd not needed

Can anyone help me in that?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] paramjeet.bhullar@gmail:
Team,

I am new to this site....I have rooted my LG GT540 to 2.1 eclair, I is nice to see that this phone can be rooted to 2.2, but there no procedure gievn how to do it.

I download the zip file from the link given in the forum, but it contains .img files only.

Can you pls help me telling how to install latest OS
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] EoinSheehy:
Put 2.1 questions in the right thread, this is about the OpenSwift Project.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] EoinSheehy:
You first have to have a 2.1 ROM with fastboot, and then flash a recovery.img and then in recovery you use the .img file, there's plenty of tutorials on this around the forum.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] tong.po:
THANK YOU FOR A DREAM COME TRUE!!!

Just 2 questions:

- how can I back up my apps and settings so I don't have to reinstall everything when a newer version comes out?

- does this already include the overclocked boot?

Thanx!
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] phillmydiamond:
hi all,

installed this rom via fastboot, love it, works great, fast, nippy, and more internal space than 2.1. only problem is my sd card.

when its out the phone, the phone is mostly well behaved, cant use camera, gallery or music but phone works as it should.

with the sd card in, phone locks up and black screens, had a screen of white code on black background scrolling steadily until i restarted it earlier and on unlock of screen and phone startup, its constantly mounting sd card, sd card unexpectedly removed? when its clearly firmly seated in its little cage.

i have nothing installed on the sd card, just a gig of music and some pictures. folders are still there from 2.1 rom,

is it worth formatting and starting fresh or is my card not up to spec? sd card just says sd 2gb, a generic one i guess.

any help would be much appreciated :)

love the rom

Fat32 on my phone I don't even have an ext partition on my sd card

But I keep gettin told I'm wrong
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] DonPanda:
First: use Titanium Backup. With this program u can save any userapps + settings. Do NOT backup 2.1 systemfiles because if u flash to 2.2 u will error messages.

Second: No, u have to replace ur Kernel and set SPU by using SetCPU wich u can find at the market place.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] CROrION:
nice work, will wait 2-3 more weeks until everything is bug free before putting it on my phone :)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] spy1983:
I thought the Kernel and the SETCPU were installed with the ROM by default...

Also can you recommend me a ROM with fastboot? so i have an official LG ROM right now and i think i should install a ROM with fastboot in order to install tihs ROM right?

Thanks
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] DonPanda:
Yes and no. There is a new Kernel out with 2.2, but u have to install the "standalone" version, wich u can find here in the forum, for stable frequencies.

For fastboot: it is correct that u need fastboot to install recovery or 2.2 via fastboot. Just get one of the Quarx 2.1 roms wich u can also find in this forum here.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] jakebriggs:
Yes, yes it does. I can play metal gear solid on tigergbc with my wiimote :D
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] quasimidi:
Hi,

The Gallery3d can be freely downloaded from the Market!

Better to reformat your sd to fat32, because 2.2.1 natively handles the app2sd. You can set in the Cyanogenmod settings where the new applications should be installed (Automatic/Internal/External (=SD)).
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] fishears:
I'm on the verge of installing this - just two questions:

I can't find a list of the default apps that are in this rom - can someone tell me if Google Navigation is included/worls because I use this a lot?

Also, I know bluetooth is mostly working - does this include making/receiving calls with a bluetooth headset?

Thanks
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] EoinSheehy:
Google Navigation is included, and even if it wasn't it's a simple matter of downloading Google maps onto you phone and it's included there.

I'm sorry but I don't know about the Bluetooth because I don't use it.

The default apps are:

Browser

Calculator

Calender

Camera

Clock

Contacts

Dev Tools

DSPManager

Email

File Manager

FM Radio

Gallery

Google Search

GPS Status

Gmail

Latitude

Linpack for Android

Maps

Market (new version)

Messaging

Music

Navigation

Phone

Places

Quadrant Advanced

Root Explorer

Search

Settings

Sound Recorder

Spare Parts

Superuser

Talk

Terminal Emulator

Videos

Voice

Voice Dialer

Voice Search

YouTube

I'm open to correction if I've missed or added apps.
