Can someone upload the flashable zip to get the live wallpaper back to the rom.I'm not using pc so its hard for me to compile it. Thanks.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] teh_1:
I've sent you a pm with the zip file.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] naturist:
Thank you so much, I browse through tapatalk so hadn't checked the PM earlier. Thanks again :)

Hi, I've been using void rom for quite a few days and is quite happy with it's performance.

However, today, when I added gingerbread and tapps folder into /void/settings and rebooted, it does not boot into gingerbread theme and the apps were not loaded.

It was perfectly fine few days ago.

Can anyone help me by suggesting me what to do?

I will be re-flashing and nandroid restore my current back up later to see if it works.

EDIT: I realised a very stupid mistake. I created the folders under /void , and not /settings. Sorry for redundant post.

On a side note, i highly recommend this rom. Works very well with SetCpu.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] DonDizzurp:
why would one choose this over megatron? is it only the option to turn things on or off? or does this use a better kernel or something? i only have a 2gb card and dont want space to be wasted on the apks and etc
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] adrianghaust:
To me, yes, you are right, to be able to turn things on or off. It's very versatile.

Kernel wise, you can flash any suitable kernels you prefer, doesn't matter.

For space, I'm not that sure.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Javi22:
Thanks! I have installed the Room and it is really good. But I have a question: battery mod, What is this for? I dont understand his function. Because there arent mods for Lg p500.

I also would know about sf/hwa-module, this is only good for playing games?

Or, it also will help for playing heavy videos, for example, and improve speed?

Thanks!
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Javi22:
and...another thing, I have created the folder "a2sd" but, the app not appear in SD, they still installing on internal memory
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] peacekeeper05:
do you have ext in your sd card?

did you reboot after creating the folder?

about the sf/hwa module

no, afaik it doesnt really affect game performance

hwa improves UI cause it uses gpu instead of cpu but drains your battery faster.

sf is only enabled for bragging purposes, i think it improves your benchmarks score. dont enable it cause you might encounter problems playing videos.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] taha198:
@all

This project is abandoned. No updates from neojn since 4th Feb. Lets move to gingerbread. Its awesome.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] peacekeeper05:
sad but i think noejn will not update this anymore. :( i haven't seen him here for over a month now.

wish he'll continue making roms.

his roms: megatron, prime and specially void are like the Legendary custom roms for optimus one.

:(

or at least someone would continue this project from where he stopped. i like void's modular structure and don't want to see it end on echo.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] bluviper:
i will have GB on my phone when the bugs are minimized.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] neilmb:
I don't think Gingerbread on the P500 is that awesome yet: 50% less battery life than devoid (my personal experience), bugs with unlocking and after calls, bluetooth issues, no tethering, etc. It may be awesome eventually, but for me for now, it's just in development.

Was there some sort of update that you were waiting for on Noejn's ROMs? Did void or devoid become less good simply because they have existed for a long time?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] bluviper:
i dunno with others but for me, void.echo is still worth keeping...

i can live up with it 3 months or more... no problem..

but there are times when you feel bored. and you want to tinker your phone more.

hehehe thats where all the excitement is.... dont you agree?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] neilmb:
Oh yeah, I still run the gingerbread roms occasionally to have fun tinkering, but I always seem to come back to devoid after a day or two because everything works and I get great battery life. Tinkering is great, but most days I just want a phone that works really well...but not all the time :)
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Javi22:
Yeah, I have did all this...but now I have repeated all again and now I think it works....:)

about the module, thanks for the info, then I wont enable it...

thank you men!;) (its a great Rom...)

PD_i have the last question, how can I sure kernel is properly activated? How must be appear in "version kernel"?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Dream232:
a2sd created directory as a guide but not found something in this folder ... app is still in memory phone
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Master619:
After I flash echo, it has Mik's kernel for touch optimizations. But can I flash sippolo's kernel over? I just prefer that one.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Magnumutz:
Yes, you may.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] bluviper:
sure go ahead... it will just overwrite.. and use sippolo's with no prob.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] immascorpio1114:
Will this work on the Optimus V? Do I have to activate it
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Master619:
thanks. And one more thing: I downloaded echo and even compared the md5s, and after flashing it, in the info screen the phone still shows the version being void #delta. Is this normal?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] DonDizzurp:
yea he didnt update it. its still echo
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Master619:
Thanks. And another thing: I miss those apps like Maps, YouTube, Movie Player, Voice Search. I've read the part:

But I don't want all those apps. Just some mentioned above. I found the corresponding apks deep in the "void" folder on sdcard. Can I just install those like normal apps? Will there be any problem (maybe they need a script that must be run first, or need to be installed all at once,..)?

If that's the case, can I install them all (create the "gapps" folder), then use a rooted uninstaller to uninstall each one I don't need?

Thanks.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] teh_1:
You can install all of them and then use a rooted uninstaller to get rid of the apps you don't need without any problems.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Master619:
Thanks. I've tried the first method and was able to install YouTube and Maps just fine. Then the Video Player won't install. Guess I'll have to flash them all. Which rooted uninstaller do you recommend?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] teh_1:
I'm using Uninstaller for Root and it works fine.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] DonDizzurp:
you could just open the .zip with winrar or something then extract just the .apk's you want to install..

thats much better than installing them just to delete them..
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Javi22:
I have a little question...: What does battery mod? what is it for? I dont understand it xD

Thanks!!
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] bluviper:
well it will make your ordinay battery icon into a circular one, or other shapes depending on how the MOD is constructed, but for this idea, its a circular one.

and i think its still not working fine. better look for another MOD for this, plenty out there. or maybe make one of your own. via UOT

good luck
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] DonDizzurp:
how can you tell if hardware acceleration is on?

the folder should be "hwa" not "hwacc" right?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] aursta:
where i can get stock alarm clock widget? it was very simple to use :?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Zerobarat1:
Better leave it off ;) . It really ain't worth the effort and it consumes extra battery ( renders UI by GPU thus making it smoother )
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] DonDizzurp:
yea i dont mind the battery problems but with hwa turned on in void is laggy compared to megatron.. not sure why
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Javi22:
ok, thanks;) So I suppose that wont be a problem uninstall this battery mod with Titanium backup, for example. Any problem with this or I can do it?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] masteryx:
Go ahead and uninstall it, it's safe.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Master619:
I haven't enabled it (didn't create the folder) and the phone UI is not that laggy like I thought. It's still pretty smooth.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] bluviper:
i also noticed this when i use setCPU and adjust frequencies to 729mhz..

no matter what mode im in, whether powersaver, on-demand, or conservative

the whole system becomes laggy, scrolling thru homescreens, menus and other stuff.

so i just turn setCPU off, then it will be back to smoothness....

funny.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] adrianghaust:
This maybe because your phone couldn't support that speed. Even though we are all using the same phone, overclock settings differ due to manufacturing imperfections. :)
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] bluviper:
yes im perfectly aware of that... and this ROM that im using has those OC settings.

void.echo (729mhz governor on demand)

thats the clock right?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Master619:
I'm experiencing more battery drain on void #echo than on megatron.

When I used megatron, I left the phone in normal state for a night and battery went down 2-3%.

Now I'm using void #echo, the battery goes down over 5% in the same amount of time. And I haven't even enabled hwacc, just the kernel.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] masteryx:
Differences explained

Nope. With void #echo, ondemand is used with the default kernel @600 MHz. When using the overclocked kernel @729 MHz, the governor is set to interactive.

Side comment: what's the difference? Well, interactive is kind of an ondemand on steroids. Meaning it's still battery friendly, increasing and decreasing the clock rate as needed, but it does it faster than ondemand (less latency). So this was a wise choice from Noejn, not only overclocking but also switching to the max clock rate faster.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] bluviper:
good one.. now i understand...

im using void.echo previously, with the kernel module activated.

its alot smoother that way.. but when i use setCPU and set it to the frequency i like like lets say 710 or maybe 729 too, it starts to get laggy....
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Master619:
What exactly does a2sd do? I just enabled it, the reboot takes longer (than the normal "long" after creating folders in "settings") and all those apps that I used on megatron (my previous ROM) re-appeared. Some of them FC but most are working ok. I don't understand why?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] masteryx:
That's because you used a2sd with megatron too, and when you flashed void you didn't wipe the ext partition. Enabling a2sd with void allowed access to the ext partition which already had data on it.

As for what it does: is stores the apps that you install, placing them on the SD card instead of the phone memory.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] aursta:
very short battery life. i think i will flash megatron,again...

what i need to do that i don't lose my apps?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] DonJuan692006:
Use Titanium Backup.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] LEENO:
i love void rom, i update my p500 to 2.2.2 only if void release it
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] bluviper:
no need to wait for 2.2.2, coz there is no significant difference from the two.

unless you are in some european countries and you experiencing some undelivered SMS that often. then you need to upgrade. hence, its best to stay with 2.2 since its fairly stable.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Master619:
Silly me. I just realized why my battery on void #echo is draining faster than on megatron. That's megatron has setCPU already installed and monitoring the CPU at min 245 and max 729, so when the phone is in idle or screen off,... it would consume less battery. On void I didn't install it, so I guess the CPU is always rampaging at constant 730 which is from the kernel.

I re-installed setCPU and set some profiles. Hope the battery life will be better.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] johno168:
It should be 245 min and 730 max even without setcpu
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] adrianghaust:
I use the screen off profile setting and set speed to minimum at setcpu. Saves HELL lot of my battery on standby. From morning till night I used only 30-40% of battery.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Master619:
What exact max-min speed are you setting on that profile?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] blueren:
one question. Can I go beyond 730Mhz? Would it work?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Master619:
I'm using mine stable at 806. One of my friends is using at 825.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] DonDizzurp:
yea.. remember to use it at your own risk, they are designed the same but not all of them are built the same..

stock 600 works perfectly for me.. i use 730 which is more than enough..
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Zerobarat1:
Dud it's ok as long as the device doesn't overheat ( which in terms of degrees it doesn't change too much despite a +200mhz increase ) and ofc doesn't hang or worse gives you graphical errors you're ok . If for example you would bump the voltage on your device to achieve greater oc then that might be a risk ;).
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] DonDizzurp:
using quadrant standard

void = ~500-600

devoid = ~400-500

megatron = ~750-850

why?..
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Javi22:
Well I want to install google calendar, but I am not interested in the other apps thatare installed in the module gapps. So I have tried to install the Calendar.apk that I found in void folder, but dont work. It says, "the app is not installed". Where can I get it? thanks!
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] DonDizzurp:
push it to /system/app/ and chmod to 644. OR you could just remove the apps you dont want from the gapps folder with the .apks

how can i get the searchkey shortcut with devoid?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] adrianghaust:
122min. Doesnt matter what max speed is as its in powersave profile scale.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Master619:
Weird. Because now that I have set some profiles for setCPU, I'm getting noticeably better battery life. After one night (about 8 hours) it just drains 2% (and I have an alarm going on) compared to the 5% before.

My profiles are as follows (ordered by priority):

300 max - 122 min for screen off.

600 max - 122 min for battery < 40%.

806 max - 245 min otherwise (normal use).

Anyone can suggest a "dangerous" temperature to the battery so I can set a profile for the battery > that temp please? Thanks.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] adrianghaust:
3.9celcius and above is 'dangerous'. It RARELY hit 4.0 .
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] DonDizzurp:
what governor are you using?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Master619:
For screen off: conservative

For normal and < 40%: on demand

Any typo? Cause I think normal human body is about 37* C, so 3.9 and 4.0 seems pretty "cold"

The default for "temp >" profile is 50* C, also.

Maybe you meant 39 and 40?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] masteryx:
No, he meant what he wrote. Most of us see the temperatures like this - the true value divided by 10, no matter what application we use. Basically, your 39 deg. Celsius would show up as 3.9 deg. Celsius for me.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Wing_Zero85:
With the app2sd module installed, i've as result that the entire application will be installed on the sd-ext partion? Or a part of it will stay in the phone memory just like the default behaviour?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] ame85:
Hi:) I gathered some information, and now finally can answer your question:). A2sd is able to "fake" the phone internal memory on an ext partition in your SD card. This means that all apps you install, will move automatically on this ext partition, without need to do anything. Now, the 90% of the app moves on this ext partition, while a few Kb (very little indeed), remains on the real internal memory, fo the phone to use. This brings to very little "real internal memory" consumption, guaranteed. One "minus" is that, with a2sd, the number of reading and writing accesses to SD card increases exponentially. So, if you previously experienced SD card unmounts, using this hack could make it worse. Hope this helped.:)
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Wing_Zero85:
Thanks ame!

That's exactly what i want to know!

You're amazing ;)
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Wing_Zero85:
The last question:

I had to create manually the sd-ext partition where the apps will be installed?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] ame85:
Yep. In recovery mode, do: "partition SD card", then give it swap 0 and ext the size you want. Then, convert to ext3 or ext4, as you like:)
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] compwhiz2k5:
I can't download the ROM from the link. :(
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] pymebrahimi:
Great work... I have a question...

Can we use the modules that you introduced in the first post on other 2.2.1 custom ROMs? Is those modules ROM-specific or not?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] michael.ahdett:
Can't seem to get the stock browser installed on devoid. Running it from the sd card doesn't work, and pushing it via adb to /system/apps doesn't work either. Anyone have any ideas?

I need the stock browser because of my work's wifi security, no other browser handles it well.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] bioan:
Push it to system/app and change permissions.

Get root explorer to do that, or via ADB.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] michael.ahdett:
As I said in my post, this didn't work for me.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] teh_1:
Try this.

Flash it from recovery.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] bioan:
I'm absolutely 100% sure that you haven't change permissions. That's the reason it didn't work out.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Javi22:
Well, how can I do it? I am interesed too
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] bioan:
The easiest way is via Root Explorer.

The other way is with ADB.

chmod 755 /system/app/Browser.apk
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Javi22:
well, I have copied the apk to this folder, what about now? The app is not installed yet
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] DonDizzurp:
LMAO are you even paying attention?

did you change permissions?

and its 644 not 755

how i did it:

boot in recovery

open command prompt

adb push [location to file.apk] /system/app/

adb shell

chmod 644 /system/app/Browser.apk

reboot

wait and youre done..
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Javi22:
sorry....I am a bit noob and I dont know too many things so..At recovery mode, where is the command prompt that you say?

Sorry for the inconvenience...
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] ciolnadu:
it's not in recovery

it's on your computer

u have to install sdk for that
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] DonDizzurp:
yea youll have to download android sdk and make sure you get the adb packages. it might take some time to download..

if you google around, you can get just the files needed to run ADB..

if you dont want to do all that, just get root explorer and use that to move it and change permissions (not recommended)

or you can download a terminal emulator and do it from your phone (recommended but would suggest using adb over this method)
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] bioan:
755 is better because you also get execute permission.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] DonDizzurp:
its unnecessary..

its safer to give as little permission as possible..
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Javi22:
Ok, thanks for the info;) I will try installing gapps module, and then uninstalling apps...Is easier
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] DonDizzurp:
i didnt read through every post but if you want to install just a few gapps and youre running void rom, then all you have to do is go into /sdcard/void/resources/gapps/ and just delete the apk's you dont want to install

Then create the gapps folder in /sdcard/void/settings/ and reboot
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Masterhood:
My Phone Explorer

Heya @ all

first of all wicked Rom! :D

Ich was wondering though if somebody has a clue concerning the "My Phone Explorer" App working with Void.

I dont seem to be able to sync to any Calender on my Phone. I tried loads, but I dont seem to be able to get the final step (from MPE PC to any Calender App) to work... :(:mad::(

I thought it might be the missing stock calender app, but with gapps module the calender app always closed (I got the program complaining three times on boot) on me :confused:

I anybody has experience with My Phone Explorer (btw awesome app to save your phone book and sms) it would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers!

hi i have a problem, nothing happens when i create a new folder in the void settings..Even if i delete, reboot, then create again still nothing happens..

I also tried the using the .conf file but still nothing happens..

Is there a way out of this or can i have a flashable zips for the modules?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Akrasiel:
Hi i need your help!

Today i have accidentally uninstalled LauncherPro and now i'm unable to start my phone..

What do u suggest me to do now? Thanks in advance
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] leegoon84:
please help.

I followed the exact instruction

"Reboot into custom recovery (through 3-button combo, ADB, Terminal)

Partition SDcard (swap: 0, ext: 512), convert to ext3, then ext4

Wipe everything (data, cache, dalvik-cache, ext, android_secure)

Toggle PC-usb connection and copy the downloaded zip you wish to flash into the root of your SDcard; unplug afterwards

Flash void.

Reboot

"

my sd card has 1 zip file which is the rom and I'm stuck at boot loop.

I wipped everything in the menu reflashed many many many times yet, I'm stuck at boot loop

both echo and delta doesn't work
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] kly91:
This rom requires you to wait for it for 5-6 minutes during boot..you would really feel that your in a boot loop but it will go to your desktop after sometime

guys, im afraid our beloved void series, i think is dead, no update anymore....
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] blueren:
What updates does it need? Its running rock solid :) besides... cyanogen is right around the corner ;)
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] bluviper:
yes... its steady as it is @ 2.2

so if you want something new or experience something new, try ROMS @ 2.2.2

or go straight to 2.3

like blueren said, CM is just around the corner...
