Hi everyone. Having gone through this processes with two phones, I put together a lengthly blog post outlining what you need to do to get your phone rooted and running with custom ROMs from the XDA forums. I've linked to each post on these forums that you need to use to get everything going!

http://tablet-crunch.blogspot.com/2011/01/lg-optimus-t-rooting-recovery-rom.html

If you found that useful or like it, click a couple of ads for me!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] The_ERROR:
Very useful for start-user!! Anyway, If someone start doing this advanced things and have no idea about what he/she doing, than if something goes wrong, it's really hard support this people.

So, I would like to say: Do rooting, do custom recovery, use custom ROMs, but READ ABOUT WHAT YOU ARE TRYING TO DO!!

Than if something goes to fail, you can without any problems follow steps to repair your bricked phone.

Good luck!!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] thesmoth:
Thanks!! Here is a link to a short video review I just posted of the LG Optimus T with the Megatron ROM and overclocked to 806 mhz!

http://tablet-crunch.blogspot.com/2011/01/lg-optimus-t-one-video-review.html

I would go to youtube from there to watch the video in high def (it's small on my blog).

I will also be doing a video soon showing everyone how you go through those steps, so when you are confused by the written instructions you can use my video to supplement it.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] koblags:
The site didn't say if it's for what version of Optimus One....

XDA site stressed out that 2.2.1 should be downgrade to 2.2 before rooting....Am I right?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] thesmoth:
Ah right, good point. I will update this. Thank you!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] thesmoth:
This is a video supplement to my original blog post, so please use both together. This isn't a full step by step tutorial, but I hope i've clarified to most confusing parts!

Does anyone know where I can get the KA6 .tar file? I want to flash it using Odin3, instead of using a ROM.

Also, can I still use the 512 .pit file to flash it? Or is there a newer .pit?

Thanks
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agentg1001:
I've seen android phones on youtube that have gone beyond 2 finger multi touch, they went up to 3-5 fingers. I tested this phone and I only got 2 fingers to work -.- , is this hardware related or software related? Id like to have more than 2 finger multitouch because I use the musical pro app which has multitouch piano and drums
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Balem:
The touch sensors are built into the screen and not the software. Software won't add any more functionality unfortunately.

[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] CyiDev:
OK guys, I am starting an new project. I will be creating an hub similar to the HTC Hub - however it can not be so similar that is a direct copy. Please let me know in here any requests you guys have. I will continue to update this thread as I progress. The end version will be a paid version, however I will lower the price during a set period of time so that those who contribute will be able to grab a copy for 99 cents and those who do a substantial amount of help will get it free - I will code a secondary system in an update if I can not do this on the marketplace the way I want to. I will clean this post up after a couple of days and skim through the thread for features requested and make a mock-up.

Note: In order to pass certification it will be required that the back button exits the app, I can over-ride this and allow an exit through a settings panel to disable /re-enable.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Aaron McCarthy:
Awesome... count me in to try this bad boy out!
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] ~~Tito~~:
I will move this to SW development since this is an ongoing project, once this is close to an actual product, PM me and I will move it back. IE beta. ;)

[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] yeongpeen:
In this hub:

1. Allow to add our own weather widget or clock

2. Don't want fancy animation like the one in HTC, very annoying. Some minor animation or transition effect will do

3. Allow to category the apps with zune UI concept. Critical feature as I don't want to keep putting all my apps in homescreen tiles or the second screen list of apps which is getting too long now. Should have option to choose to display the apps as in tiles layout or list or icon.

4. Option to put wallpaper in Hub background, just like our picture hub.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] bigfoune:
great idea !hope you will do differently than in htc

!! ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] emigrating:
What is the purpose of the hub going to be? and how can the rest of us developers plug into it?
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] wixxer:
I'd like to see a weather animation, if windows' hub's being pinned to the homescreen. Furthermore it would be nice, if you could implement sth that enables us to change the tile's size again if pinned to the homescreen.

Another "innovation" would be from my point of view, if the windows hub on the homescreen would open "another" fully customizable homescreen, i.e. you have your regular homescreen and in case you feel it is overloaded you reproduce your applications within the windows hub attached to the regular homescreen that opens another homescreen, very much like the folder solution implemented with iOs 4. "screw me"?
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] martywix:
Love to get my stocks on there also.

[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] ingky520:
its great idea bro,cant wait for this,it will change history of wp7!!!!!!
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] CyiDev:
Thanks for the ideas so far, keep em coming.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] augie7107:
I would like to be able to see sports scores as part of the hub.

I can't seem to find a decent app for WP7 that handles these.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] kingjovius:
not sure about the htc hub, but in the samsung equivalent, there is a section on latest news. i dont like this as there arent much im interested in but if you could have a built in rss reader in the hub, that'd be awesome.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Rouz.:
I'd like to see a messaging widget like the one on htc's sense for android. I'm not sure if its implementable though.

Just retrieving the messages and displaying it on a sense-like interface will do.

Im just so bored of reading messages in the wp7's plain messaging environment
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] DavidinCT:
A hub replacement for HTCs...Hmmm...My vote..

1. Weather (stream lined, 5-10 day forecast with good but fast images)

2. News (RSS feed?, AP news/MSNBC/CNN, to be able to customize page, local/country/subject, etc)

3. Stocks

4. Sports Scores/Stats/standings, also to be able to see all scores but, follow a team/sport, I'd love to see tons of options here

5. Custom RSS section, so you can add a few web pages that offer RSS feeds.

Sounds like a great idea I'll be following this one...
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] bigfoune:
+ 1000;) with audio setting and visual equalizer
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] gamerr120:
Totally agree.

Also,

1. A comm manager? So it's easy to toggle radio/wifi/bluetooth on and off

2. A clock like HTC sense, with weather underneath (not the gay apps section which I don't use, if I want an app I use the market place or to launch an app I just slide right and down to the app I want to launch).

With all these ideas, They should be easy to navigate around, instead of creating hyperlinks, maybe make it so each page is a slide to the right, like the metro theme, this will look much easier and be much easier to use rather than using hyperlinks!

[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] lorenzo.themax92:
good project! if you want a people for translating in italian , contact me :D
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] DavidinCT:
One thing I would love

... Make the "live tile" customizable by content.

For Example, during the day it could show weather based on GPS but, during a baseball game(or pick your sport), it will update with current scores on the second and a click of the tile during a game will bring you right to your sports page.

This could work the Same for a few stocks during trading hours but, one the market is closed, go back to a default of weather (an example)

Custom Content where you need it, when you need it.

I think when you click on the tile (AKA open the Hub) it should go into a Weather/Time/Wi-fi/blu-tooth settings/status... kind of a status page but, a flip will bring you to different content.

Just trying to come up with ideas for this. Hope this helps !
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] FlowerPotmen:
Yes me too.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] hassia:
@gamerr120

Not sure what you mean by gay apps considering the times we are living right now, I find that description as rather juvenile,and negates anything you have to say.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] gamerr120:
I think the context is wrong, what I meant was that the area on the HTC hub section right now seems obsolete because it is much easier to launch apps from the menus, unless you keep HTC hub running underneath your lock screen.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] nikescar:
The Nook is the perfect size for a secondary display for a laptop or desktop pc.

This method creates a virtual display that TeamViewer can attach to and control.

I'm going to use TeamViewer (for simplicity's sake) but you can use VNC if you want also. I am making this guide assuming you are using Windows 7.

Software you will need:

Mirage Virtual Display Driver

TeamViewer for PC and Android

PC

Install both Mirage and TeamViewer. If either of them ask for a restart, then restart.

Right-click on your desktop and choose 'Screen Resolution'.

Click the 'Detect' button.

In the 'Display' drop-down list you should see your virtual display as 'Display device on: VGA'. Select that.

Under 'Multiple Displays' drop-down, choose 'Extend desktop to this display' and click 'Apply'

Under the 'Resolution' drop-down, choose 1024x600 and then click 'OK'.

For 'Orientation' choose either 'Landscape' or 'Portrait' to suit your needs.

To setup TeamViewer follow the steps in this PDF.

NOOK

Install TeamViewer on your NC using the standard or easy (drag-drop-open with file manager) methods.

Launch Teamviewer.

Type your pc's ID and password you setup from the PDF and click 'Connect to Partner'.

After a few moments you should establish a connection. If you get a help screen on connection press close.

On the toolbar on the bottom click on the gear icon. (You may have to click towards the top of the icon, at least on my NC that's how it is)

Under 'Session settings' tap the 'Monitor' pulldown and choose 'Monitor 2'. (It was #2 on my setup yours may be different)

Under 'Quality' I left mine on 'Automatic'.

The 'Back' button wasn't working on mine so just tap your Nook's back button.

That should do it. Now you can drag Twitter, Pandora, Winamp to your NC, add some widgets like cpu usage, or whatever.

Notes:

On my setup when I tried to add th NC as my third screen, Windows wouldn't allow it. I'm sure it has to do with my video card or something.

If you want a cleaner picture try 'Optimize quality' under 'Quality'. Likewise, if you want smoother transitions choose 'Optimize Speed'.

This isn't a hack or anything special but I thought some might be interested.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] spikey911:
Thanks for sharing this is completely awesome
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] tunwear:
Thanks. Nice idea. I rebooted but still only have RCA under display.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] nikescar:
RCA, I am assuming, is your main display?

Go to device manager and see if you have 'Mirage Driver' under 'Display Adapters'
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] nikescar:
If it shows up in device manager try clicking "Detect" when you are in the 'Screen Resolution' window.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] tunwear:
The Detect button fixed it. Looks good. Thanks again.

I to be mr 20 questions ( :D ) but I clicked show remote cursor on the settings, but it only updates the cursor when you click the mouse. Anyway to update it in real time? I also have it on optimize speed.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
Cute hack, but I can't imagine anyone doing this on purpose.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] bartimeus:
There is an option that sets it to view the remote mouse.

This works well when my laptop isn't plugged into my actual monitor but it never gives me the option to select a third monitor. May be helpful at work though, thanks!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] theroberts:
Might give this a try just for fun. What I'm really interested in is the opposite. Getting the nook screen on the pc (or projector).
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] GabrialDestruir:
I'd do this on purpose for when I'm not using my NC for other stuff.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] matrix2004:
I can't get it to show in the drop down box after i hit detect. I'm on Win 7 64bit It is in device manager.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] nikescar:
iDisplay now Available for Android

This is a program that is designed to work as a second display instead of being a hack job.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] spadge:
any idea if idisplay (or any other method) will work as a third screen?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] nikescar:
Yes, it works with multiple screens.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] tj!2k7:
Cool, thanks for the heads-up.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] spadge:
Tried it out, I'm now using iDisplay as a 3rd monitor and with works great. Thanks!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] xebix:
I've tried this on both my home computer and my work computer. Both run Windows 7 x32. The Mirage Driver shows up under Displays in device manager, but when I click the Detect button, all I see is my primary monitor. Any suggestions?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] smaskell:
You managed to install it on your nook? I just get "this item is not compatible with your device"
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] DanAdamKOF:
Thanks a lot for posting about this, I tried it and here's a few notes:

-I couldn't get Mirage Virtual Display Driver to really work, it would install but it wouldn't appear when I went to add another display. I ended up not using it at all (see below).

-I was able to add an extra display with my nVidia video card. Basically, I did the following:

--I used the NVIDIA Control Panel to create a 1024x600 60hz custom resolution

--I went to Windows 7's Screen Resolution thing, clicked Detect, clicked on "Another display not detected", clicked "Try to connect anyway on: VGA", clicked Apply, and from there it was simple to choose the 1024x600 resolution and extend my display onto it.

-It was difficult for me to use the other display.

--For one, the refresh rate was quite choppy (even with optimizing for speed enabled), so I would keep overshooting the cursor, moving it back, waiting to see if I was in the right place, and if not, trying to move a bit less in the opposite direction again (sort of like an annoying "Binary Search" hehe).

---I have to wonder if getting the NC to use LAN over USB would improve performance. There's a lot more throughput to be had over USB than WiFi. Any ideas on how to do that?

--For two, and the most annoying part, was that the bottom bar for Teamviewer on my NC took up a lot of screen space. If I maximized a window, I couldn't see the bottom part of it because of the bar.

---I wonder if finding out the exact height of the bar, and subtracting that from the custom resolution, will make a display that floats on top of the bar when viewed in Teamviewer?

For the record, I'm running a rooted NC with the stock rom (no CM7 or anything custom), my PC is running Windows 7 6bit, dunno if any other details matter.

Since this works over WiFi, I'd imagine iDisplay would perform similarly, so I think until they get it to work over USB, I won't buy it (I emailed them a while ago and asked if you established a LAN connection over USB if it would work, and they said no).
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] lellouchftw:
Just tried iDisplay and it worked for me, thanks alot!

Don't know how useful it's going to be, but at least it gets bragging rights :p

Is this still available to do on the Nook tablet running version 1.4.3?

Thanks
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] munchy09:
thanks alot this is great.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] pizzaman79:
Works perfectly for me, and it's free as opposed to Air Display and iDisplay. I don't like products with apple names anyway ;)

[Epic 4G General] Jacoby6000:
Is there any way to partition the SD card to dual boot roms? One in the ROM of the phone, the other in a separate partition from the other junk in your SD card? I know the guys working on the CDMA hero did it, but i haven't seen anything about the epic.
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
I would love this option. Id have di18 running off my sd when I need to use things like the photosafe app which don't show up in froyo market
[Epic 4G General] Jacoby6000:
Agreed. I also think it would be nice, because you could have a powersaving rom, and a cool looking themed rom that you could switch between. I honestly want this, because my girlfriend likes playing with my phone when I'm working, and she gets mad when I change stuff.. ^_^'

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nxt:
Google JUST released it a few minutes ago, it's in the market now, update your Maps.

To go 3D mode, use two fingers and swipe down. It'll "tilt" the map. If you're in an area that has the 3D vector maps, you'll see it (try San Francisco).

You can also then use two fingers and rotate the map.

Old Market

Shouldn't the Nexus S use the new market? Mine displays the old market...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlindWolf8:
Agreed. 2.3 shoulda come with the new market. I tried to install the .apk but I can't for some reason as I don't have the option. I also noticed that in 2.3 with the old market, Downloads (third tab) has been replaced with T-Mobile's picks. Yuck.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leyvatron:
They should've put the new market... I dislike the new t-mobile tab in the market.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Superfrag:
The third tab is Downloads for me, not T-Mobile.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlindWolf8:
Yeah, seeing the T-Mobile tab makes the phone feel gimped. How can I install the newer .apk I have or can't I? (locked to 2.2 only?)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rashad1:
It will change, if you're on T-Mobile or if you use them as a payment option
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Superfrag:
Then it must be a uniform standard, maybe for Sprint users it'll change to Sprint & for AT&T users it'll change to AT&T..

Luckily for me I've been using the phone since morning and it's on downloads only.

New market just updated on my Epic, should be to you guys in no time :D
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n1kki6:
Mine says t-mobile as well.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nxt:
I had AT&T SIM in when I got my phone, and it said Downloads and had WIFI Tether (root app) available for download.

After I signed up for T-Mobile and used that SIM, the tab turned into T-Mobile, and no WIFI Tether in the market (there's another thread listing some apps missing from T-Mobile market) :(
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlindWolf8:
It's all very odd. Ever since I had my N1, the third tab was ALWAYS Downloads. Then, I manually upgraded to the new Market. (2.2.6) When going to Market on the Nexus S, the third tab is T-Mobile. I really hope when switching to the newer Market that it goes away.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlindWolf8:
Yeah, I noticed that there were some apps missing from the Market as well, but this may be because of the transition from 2.2 to 2.3. Back in the day when we were moving from 2.1 to 2.2 there was a whole to-do about some apps not showing in the market and it had to do with developers not checking some options/settings to do with security or something in their app(s).

I suppose it's the price we pay for being on the bleeding edge. I did notice that apps that were sitting on my SD card on my Nexus One were

not

transferred over and I'll need to redownload them.

OT: How would I got about transferring settings, save games, etc. onto my Nexus S? This is the one thing that irks me about resetting a phone/moving to a new phone. Apps are transferred but settings/saves are not.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nxt:
Gotta root the phone and use Titanium Backup to backup the actual app/game data :P
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlindWolf8:
That's lame. I hope Google continues to make phones with a fixed amount of storage so that they can backup everything to the cloud. Due to them knowing what's on the phone, they can then restore the apps and saves for us.
