[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edgemaster191:
i wouldn't give the intercept the time of day, i know a few people who have had one and the experience was terrible. they ended up ditching it for something else.

transform is suppose to be decent, the Shift really is a great phone but you must be willing to deal with the extra ten bucks a month :-/
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrandoKC:
I would definately look at the Optimus S.

You also might think about picking up a used Hero for them. I'm sure there are quite a few out there at the moment.

I handed mine down to my 13 year old step daughter and you would think I gave her an Atrix. She loves playing Flood It and Word Feud along with Angry Birds.

[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BuddahWolf01:
I would also suggest the transform. I had that phone for almost 30 days before deciding to pay the 10 bucks dream phone tax... it was decent, but I did get it while sprint had it for $50 before christmas. Really enjoyed the keyboard. Still making a lot of mistakes on this one...

Transcoded from my PG06100 using XDA App
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cachorropedorro:
Do not get the transform. I bought it launch day and it performed decently for about a month and a half. Then I started getting all of the bugs that everyone else was getting(keyboard strokes randomly opening programs, intense lag, data lockups, etc.) There are temporary workarounds and I would have to reset the phone every other day. Its not the shift's younger brother. Its a completely different machine. Its more like the Samsung Moments slightly more attractive twin brother; the internals are identical.

The optimus s on the other hand is amazing. I bought it for my girlfriend and it blew me away. The processor had a lower clock speed yet it felt exponentially faster than my transform(due to the adreno GPU). I had low expectations for that phone and it blew me away.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmollabi:
do not get the samsung intercept.i repeat do not get the samsung intercept..this phone is total crap..it doesnt feel like froyo it feels like cupcake.even a teenager would get fed up with this phone..its none of my business but i dont think a teen needs a cellphone..no disrespect

Domenic,

when you cooked you rom did you use windows 32bit?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] anshmiester78900:
ummm can our OP1 be overclocked with this Custom ROM ?

sorry if i soung noob as im new to Android
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] domenic_s:
@ Asuma06: I used Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit and cygwin.

@ anshmiester78900: Yes, you need this rom (or another one and the kernel) and SetCPU.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] mohammedalmusimie:
good job, finally O1 roms started to increase.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] undertaker221191:

[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Asuma06:
I'm also using does apps but one app is giving me a problem. I was using the guide provided on this forum but got an error on the LG tool...can you give me some links of the tools you have been using. I'll try to cook a rom based on the 2.2.1 for the philippines. tnx
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] domenic_s:
This ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=901417 ) tutorial is pretty easy, just follow each step one by one and you will see how easy romcooking is.

v1.1 will come today or tomorrow. I'm going to do some optical adjustments and add/delete some apps.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] quovadissbg:
How's the battery life compared for example with Megatron ROM? Because I'm pretty happy with the Megatron, but it is always nice to try something different. :)
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] domenic_s:
Actually it should be the same, but I dont know why but I have a lot more free ram out of the box (300mb in my rom, 250 in void.).
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] domenic_s:
And there it is... optimusXrom v1.1! See first post.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] dzynio:

[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] MikeD215:
Dom I wouldn't use miren as a default browser..after usage I got alot of fcs

Its not that stable..on the plus side dolphin HD is and also fast and free.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Badassian:
hey nice work man, gotta a question though

do u have any benchmark numbers that u can post up? i wanna see performance numbers
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] argel08:
Hi Dom.. :D How's the battery life? because currently I'm using Amber Home, and OC to 787mhz, but the battery drains faster. How about your rom?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Asuma06:
I'm also following that guide...thanks! My I suggest replacing the browser with a different one like dolphin. miren is nice bit it always update every time you browse. but all in all nice rom.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] domenic_s:
@ MikeD215: Acutally i love Miren Browser so I won't replace it, perhaps I remove it, because I don't like Dolphin and all the other Browsers.

@ Badassian: I have no numbers, but they will be equal to the scores of the other roms with the same specs (jit, hwaccel, 40m heapsize, and oc).

@ argel08: Actually I can't see any difference between my rom, void. and LG original firmware.

@ all: Thanks for your replies :)
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] sincotan:
I used Amber 3 weeks but with this a have 1%/10hours (night, data off)!!!

GReat ROM

I like this ROM. But can you tell me how to install the FM Radio in this ROM coz I cannot Install it by myself. I used the stock fm radio apk from megatron.

Thanks man!
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] domenic_s:
Just put the apk via Rootexplorer in system/app/ and reboot. This should work, but I'm not sure.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] _MattBassPunx_:
sorry there is the italian language for the menus?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] domenic_s:
Because I used the European version I think so.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] ebautista:
FM RADIO

No, it didn't. I have also tried to follow void's procedure to where it provides a flashable zip but it didn't worked also. I need the FM radio cause that's one of the reason why i bought this phone :) . Also, if possible, can someone post te flashable theme of this ROM? Thanks in advance. :)
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] argel08:
Hi Dom, I'm currently using your rom.. Battery life is good.. :D but I thought you already included the OC Kernel? SetCPU won't work on my LG Optimus One. Can I use GNM OC BETA with your rom?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] kpbotbot:
Put the apk on your sdcard's root directory.

su
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cp /sdcard/FmRadio.apk /system/app/FmRadio.apk

Haven't used Root Explorer yet, but I think it "forgot" to mount system with read and write perms.

I don't know about void, but this is how I install stuff with Light ROM.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] ebautista:
Finally! Thanks man!!! I will still use this ROM :)
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] domenic_s:
Actually it should be there, else just flash this Kernel, this should work. Thats the Kernel I'm using in my rom.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] argel08:
Hi Dom, last question before I flash the custom kernel, does overclocking drains the battery faster? (ex. max: 806/min: 245)...
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] domenic_s:
My OO is clocked to max. 729 / min 320 and I can't see any difference to original fw.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] android 2.2:
I am a noobie and I am trying to learn how to change the rom on my LG Optimus T. I just got it a few weeks ago and I have a friend that upped his droid x from 2.1 to 2.2 and really wanted to do the same so I have looked everywhere and I found this so I have downloaded the optimusxrom and did the first step but am really confused on step 2,3 and 4 can someone help me or something I have read this forum and it is the best one out there so far. I am really wanting to learn how.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] cunami:
Strange, but on this ROM after install I am getting just 400+ on Quadrant, although it is said that it has HW acceleration enabled. For comparison I had 1000+ with Prime v2, which says HW acceleration is enabled too :) I didn't tweak anything on both roms, simply flashed from zip... Do I need to do smth on optimusXrom to have HW accel. really enabled? :)
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] bioan:
You get 1000+ only with stagefright enabled.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] cunami:
Thanks, will read about what it is and if it makes sense to have it :)
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] bioan:
You don't need it. It only gives a fake score while running Quadrant test. You will not be able to play videos smooth after activating it.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] CrysiZ:
I can't get my APN to work any ideea why?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] sarfaraz1989:
dude why wud u enable hw acceleration..Doesn't anybody care abt battery backup anymore
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] cunami:
So you say stagefright does not give any advantage except fooling Quadrant?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] cunami:
battery backup?? do you mean battery life or what?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] bioan:
@cunami - YES !
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] cunami:
Performance tests

That was interesting enough for me, so maybe interesting also for others to know too:

Before trying to enable stagefright, I ran the Quadrant, it gave me somewhere 400+. Then enabled the stagefright ("setprop" in shell) - it gives 1000+ directly. While stagefright enabled, I've tried also running Smartbench 2010, which gave me values (cannot recall what numbers exactly, but was something ~400/~5xx), which were below official ones what you can find in Smartbench 2010 for LG Optimus One: 453/621 (Productivity index / Games index). After that I disabled the stagefright and ran Smartbench again, got: 511/771
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] boykioy:
hi, just install the xrom, is very good, but i need the fm radio. can someone upload the apk?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] cunami:

installing Stock apps

hey i tried copying Fmradio apk to /system/app and changed permissions to rw,r,r and rebooted and even then it didn't work..i did mount /system as rw even ls -l shows the file is there in /system/app but it didn't work ??? Tried both ways adb and root explorer..Any clues??
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] sandman362:
hi all :)

can`t find google talk in this rom. how can i enable or install it?

thanks for incoming help ;)

greetings from germany

sandman
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] boykioy:
Step 1. Get the FM RADIO.apk few posts back, copy to sdcard.

Step 2. Using root explorer, move the fm radio.apk to system/app

Step 3. Mount R/W. Long press and change permissions to Read, Write (User), Read (Group), Read (Other), just like the other system files.

Step 4. Reboot - Voila!

[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] bbogdann:
Very good rom....can you create a circle theme for it?!
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] donytsang:
Is it normal as I see the remaining memory is only 145MB on my phone?

And when I install apps, would it installed on my SDcard by default?

Thank you~
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] domenic_s:
That is normal, when you started some apps. If you kill them all you should have ~300mb free.

Yes, they are on the ext-partition of the sd-card.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] donytsang:
I am sorry for the typing mistakes and lead to your misunderstanding

Maybe due to the reason of using a class 4 only sdcard, when I ext3->ext4 and flashing the rom, it is found that the storage memory is only about 145MB left while I would have about 19xMB in using Prime-V2 rom.

I did an experiment yesterday in skipping the step ext3->ext4, flashing your rom with ext3 partition in the sdcard. It happened to be successfully enabling app2sd+ as I can see 19xMB for the storage memory in the very beginning.

Is this due to my low class sdcard?

I am sorry that my language is little bit hard to understand.

Thank you for your nice rom and reply.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] joelcalado:
Is there any way i can get the default "browser" app back?

BTW, loving this ROM!
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] domenic_s:
Here is the apk: http://www23.zippyshare.com/v/13218121/file.html (put it on the sd card)

And here install instruction (for FMradio, but should work same): http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10808147&postcount=55
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] zeu55:
same thing happened for me also.. i was using a class 2 4GB card. and after i have done ext3 to ext4 and then i applied the ROM.. after installing it showed only 145 MB in my internal memory.. so i am using Megatron ( memory 190 MB) .. i am going to try ur method .. i hope u r right that somehow its not applicable for lower class card or there is some fault in the ROM
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] borg17a:
I have the same Problem!
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] domenic_s:
But for what do you need the internal memory? I don't understand, because all apps are moved to sd...so you don't need free space on phone anymore.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] kpbotbot:
Uhh, messages, and the like? Just a guess :D
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] domenic_s:
Good luck by filling up 145 mb just with messages... :D
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] kpbotbot:
Forgot: Browser cache, contacts with photos, MMS, etc :)
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Asuma06:
you don't need a large phone memory for those...they will be automatically be in the sdcard, a folder will automatically appear on the sdcard.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] zeu55:
Till why use phone memory when sd is available. By the way. I troed the method and it worked. Now having 191 mb left after installing 25 applications. Using this rom from yesterday.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] kpbotbot:
I didn't say that I could fill that up with those. I was just saying what could still be in the phone memory with dalvik-cache and /data/apps moved to the SD card.

And no, not everything will use the SD card for everthing. Using the memory card for everything like browser caching, message storage, and some other small stuff is bad for the card. Also, not all ROMs will do that. I don't even think this ROM will use the SD card for caching stuff on the SD card. Only the apps are moved on the card.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] gericom66:
good mornig i ask you if this rom contain italian language or not?

Thanks
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] zeu55:
i support ...only to move apps and dalvik cache to sd so that memory never runs out of space after installing 100 apps...
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] domenic_s:
It does. ;)
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Asuma06:
And why would it be bad for the sdcard? did you know why most custom ROM has the apps install directly to the sd is to make the OS run faster and efficient.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] donytsang:
No that simple actually. Because for everytime I install an app it is eventually installed in the internal memory, somehow the app2sd+ cannot function as I try to use quick system info to have a look on the ext partition on the sdcard, it cannot be recognized.

So that I would assume the ext partition cannot be recognized and then the apps will be automatically installed in the internal memory, which will eventually be used up.

But the rom is nice and I just keep using ext2 for this rom, and it runs fawlessly.

Would it be something different if I use ext2 in this rom? Slower?

Thank you for your work, it is really nice that I really love it.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] domenic_s:
No, actually ext2 is faster than ext3 ... i don't know how it is to ext4 but i'm using ext2 at the moment.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] kpbotbot:
Again, no. The purpose of Darktremor Apps2sd is to be able to move entire application packages to an ext partition on the SD card to save space. It does that using symbolic links.

The reason why ROM cookers suggest you use a card that's at least class 6 is because of SPEED.

If you use the sd card for everything (caching, sms, contacts, anything), you're killing so much read and write cycles, which is basically the card's health. Also, considering speed, writing data (specially those many tiny files which applies to caching) is much slower than writing to the phone's internal memory. In short, if you use apps that constantly writes files (web browser for instance. dolphin hd supports caching to sd), and it writes that to the sd card, there will be absolutely no point of your system being fast since it will choke on writing those files.

Lastly, speed isn't all about free space. Files that just sit there don't do any speed penalties to the overall system, as long as there is sufficient space for the system to do its thing.

Even if that were true, having even 1TB of internal memory won't speed up your phone. At all.

That's because ext3 is a journaling file system, and ext2 isn't. Journalizing helps prevent file errors and stuff, but requires a few more writes to the card :) Also, http://www.delltechcenter.com/page/A+Comparison+of+Ext2,+Ext3+and+Ext4+Performance
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] prodikey:
Dom, thanks for the ROM

A quick question: how to enabled the apps2SD.

I have set my SD to ext2 partition 32 swap and 512MB but noticed that in Titanium backup it shown:

Internal 209MB (156MB free)

SD Card 7.41 GB (5.74GB free)

SD Card (a2SD) 100MB (51.9MB free)

Anything that I need to do so that able to get the 512MB

Thanks Dom.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Asuma06:
So, If your Mr. Know it all....make your own custom ROM and stop complaining.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] kpbotbot:
Lol I wasn't complaining. The reason why I was posting is because I was correcting misinformations/misconceptions by you. I don't see anything wrong with that. If you don't like it, get your facts first before posting. Other people would do the same.

Thanks for flaming though. The internet just keeps on getting better and better ((:

EDIT: Look at the first post you quoted me on. Ask the maker of this ROM what gets moved to the SD and what stays on the phone memory. You'll have your answer.

Can I flash this rom without root it fisrt?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] hell1134:
@me2kimi

err....without rooting you cannot install custom recovery...meaning, you cannot install ANY custom roms

So, rooting is necessary to install custom rom...even this one...
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] me2kimi:
Thanks dude. But I cant root my phone. Either Z4 or Superoneclick didnt work.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] hell1134:
Are you on 2.2.1 or above...?

If yes then you need to downgrade to 2.2 via KDZ tool as 2.2.1 and above are not yet rootable.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] me2kimi:
But i dont know which is suitable 2.2 rom. Coz no rom for Malaysia listed
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] hell1134:
Use a US one ..... and anyway, if you install this rom (optimusx1.1rom) or any other custom rom, you will not get your localized rom.

EDIT: Although you may get your particular language.

Its ok. I also use English(US) language. Thanks bro

hello! domenic where can i get your green optimusX wallpaper?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] ryanraven:
The rom is great but would love it to be 2.3 :-D
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Hanny:
There are always apps on the market ;) the original LG one looks dumb tho :p

Here you go! dominic gave me the link before :)

besides downloading this,

an alternative method to reach the original untouched wallpaper is:

-set any live wallpaper

-settings > applications > manage applications > [chosen live wallpaper] > force close > home button ;)

lol mate, if you want a 2.3 just go for mik's or andy's

this rom is build for 2.2 and i guarantee its the most stable froyo on our optimus one:)

hope these helps and enjoy!
