Best solution is Terminal Emulator + Chrome to phone.Very easy!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] eichos:
If someone types that out I'll add it in (from getting the addon to accessing the terminal).
[Optimus One, P500, V General] rosuvladut:
Well,from step 8 using Terminal Emulator and Chrome to phone.

8)Download & install:

Google Chrome to phone(PC Google Chrome extension)

Google Chrome to phone(Phone app)

Terminal Emulator (Phone app)

9)Synchronize your Google account in Chrome to Phone(browser extension and phone app) and make a test by sending something to your phone(link,text).Make sure it's working.

10)After that open Terminal Emulator and type "su"(without quotes) and click yes when it's asking you for Superuser permission."#" will appear.

11)From the commands list below copy every line (except red one) one by one and send it to phone.On phone paste all commands one by one,as you send them from Chrome, in Terminal Emulator.

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock1 /system

cat /sdcard/flash_image > /system/bin/flash_image

chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image

mv /system/etc/install-recovery.sh /system/etc/install-recovery.sh.bak

[COLOR="Red"][U](if it shouts at you here saying not found or something,ignore it)[/U][/COLOR]

mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock1 /system

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-GNM-thunderg-1.1.0.img

reboot recovery

12)Wait a bit and your mobile/phone will turn off, hold in the down volume key and the home key. Keep them held in for a bit when the LG logo comes up.

Skip to step 16!

You can update first post if you like it!

Nice...:)

What about WifiKeyboard? With this tool you can write on phone with keyboard on your PC. Also can be used for SMSs, emails, and so on.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ciolnadu:
even better and more easy to use copy/paste for emulator.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] iltoroblu:
It works

Thank u for the tutorial. It really worked fine, using the wireless keyboard. 10x for the help and effort u put in this.

So are you sure this doesn't work in 2.2.1?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] HateThat:
hey i was just wondering... since lg will be releasing gingerbread for the optimus one(p500), is there a way to be able to do this in the future with this setup? or have we given up all future updates from lg or otherwise for this custom kernel??
[Optimus One, P500, V General] HateThat:
also i just got an error message when i copied in the first part of the terminal part. I comes up "cannot create /system/bin/flash_image: read-only file system"

Need help!!!

Edit: i found somewhere you had to type in the "mount" line before it all... and it seemed to have worked, hope i didn't break something :s

Edit 2: now i've run into another problem as your instructions seem to skip steps and information towards the end. this line in particaular:

17) Next get back to the mainscreen and select flash zip from sdcard. Select signed_kernal.zip and choose to let it flash. Let it do its business, go to the mainscreen, click reboot system now and you done. Your phone should restart happily with a much less cpu intensive touch screen!

Select flash zip? There is no flash zip anywhere mentioned besides here. could you please clarify or could anyone tell me what he means as im stuck on this part :(
[Optimus One, P500, V General] eichos:
You can't root AFAIK on 2.2.1.

@hatethat:

is SU on?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] HateThat:
hey sry i edited that post a number of times as not to spam posts... but yeah i got past all that stuff and am now stuck on step 17... i dont know where flash zip came from?

Edit: i went into the recovery mode adn it says "flash zip" there so i tried that and it worked fine ty anyway
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ccdreadcc:
U need to download signed-kernel.zip and flash that

I have followed the directions about pasting the 2 files into the ROOT of the SD card and when typing in the code, comes up with this message:

/sdcard/flash_image: No such file or directory

Someone help??? This is what is holding me up. I have the optimus T btw.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] masteryx:
Just move on to the next command. It's not a critical error. But if you're in the process of installing this custom recovery, why not install v1.2?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] masteryx:
I think you forgot to unzip the files. You should place the files from INSIDE the archives on the SD card, not the zip files.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] apaulk86:
I"m pretty sure I did unzip the files, because one is the disc image and the other is just a 10kb flash_image file.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] GothicFighter:
Is the lag supposed to be completely gone?

Because, for example, when I play "The Impossible Game" and I tap the screen the game slows down about 20-30%. I know the fix worked because before in NFS Shift the game lagged horrible when touching the screen(like 1FPS) but now it slightly slows down.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] legycsapo:

Phone doesnt reset

Hey,

I got my p500 recently, so after rooting it the first thing i wanted to do was fixing the touchscreen glitch. I followed every step on the guide, everything went well up until step 12, when the phone should reset Itself, nothing happens. Did I do something wrong? Can I just reset it and continue with step 16?

Thanks.

Edit: Found my mistake, I didnt scroll the log completely so i didnt see the last line (reboot recovery)

Thanks a lot for the guide eichos, worked perfectly : D

[Android General] rosso22:
Not sure if this is the right area to post this or if it been posted before, but was just wondering on other opinions of googles hidden costs when buying apps off the market.

Not sure if this only happens in certain countries but I am in the uk and when I buy an app that is priced in euro's there is a 'hidden' £1.50 charge applied to my card, so a $1 app really costs about £2.30. So if I buy 10 apps, google make £15 quid off me!

I feel this is totally unfair and am wondering of the legalities of not even warning about this charge when you buy the app?

And also it does not seem fair that google are making money off the hard work of developers, I know they get a share of the price but then they also get the extra 'card charge'.....the word ripoff springs to mind here!
[Android General] dbzfanatic:
I live in the states and I haven't experienced this, perhaps it has something to do with the conversion rate?
[Android General] antonio1475:
I don't think it is like that. Other people will confirm, but I guess it may be some thing with your credit card or bank, as I believe this does not happen to almost anyone.

:)
[Android General] rosso22:
Well it happens to me whenever I buy an app that is in euros, on two different bank cards with different banks, and the money goes to google as it says it on the statement next to the charge.

what I'm getting at is even if it does only happen to a small amount of people (or even just myself), does it make it any less unfair to not warn of this?

And some may say well just buy apps that are in £'s but then I would be missing out on a hell of a lot of apps :(
[Android General] antonio1475:
I think it just fits to your problem:

http://www.techeye.net/mobile/android-apps-conceal-hidden-charges

:)
[Android General] rosso22:
Thanks for that, explains a lot, I think google should definitely start showing the true price of apps before you buy them, and warn of any charges you may incur....Is it any wonder that people use cracked apps!
[Android General] xaccers:
To be honest, I hadn't noticed that VAT wasn't included in the prices, I just presumed they had it set up so that your local VAT rate was included (wouldn't be hard to do).

As for the £1.50 charge, that's down to your bank to inform you of it, which I bet they did, but you (like the rest of us) just never got round to reading the small print in the bumf that came with our accounts.
[Android General] dgalanter:
Same here. Never seen such a thing. (Also in the states.)
[Android General] rosso22:
Yeah probably a UK thing....they are always finding ways to sting us for more money here :mad:
[Android General] xaccers:
It'll be your bank's handling charge for exchanging £ to €

The same as if you jumped on the ferry and bought a bottle of wine with your bank card rather than cash.

If you don't think your account should incur charges for non £ transactions (ie you're sure it says you won't be charged in your terms and conditions), then contact you bank and complain.

Demand the refund of £1.50 (was VAT added to the charge? I suspect it was so add an extra 20%) and £10 as compensation for their mistake.
[Android General] rosso22:
I'll just pay with with coins next time then eh?........now where's the coin slot on my phone? :rolleyes:

And getting charges back from a UK bank......dont make me laugh :p
[Android General] sjscicluna:
thanks for the info
[Android General] xaccers:
Email the developer and ask if you can post them some dosh :P

If your terms and conditions state that there is no charge for foreign transactions, then under the banking rules you're entitiled to those charges back.

Quite often a polite phone call even when the charges are valid can result in them being refunded.

I've had overdraft charges refunded simply because I phoned up and had a bit of joke with the person in the call centre, they have a thankless job putting up with customers abusing them for mistakes the poor sods aren't responsible for, if you can make one of their's day, they can give in to resonable requests.

Like when O2 barred my phone without warning me because my bank screwed up my direct debit. 4 days after making a manual payment the bar still hadn't lifted, so I got through to a west indian woman and while she was looking into it I said "I just wanna use my phone" in a jokey way, she laughed and sorted it and credited me £15.

Maybe with Google's plan for a web based marketstore they'll be the option to add apps to your basket and pay in one go, so only 1 charge, doubt it though.
[Android General] plagued:
I still cannot believe they have not sorted this. The majority of UK debit cards will charge £1 - £1.50 for every transaction, meaning that I (and surely thousands of others) have completely avoided buying budget apps as it just makes them too expensive.

There has been some talk of a paypal or charge through your phone provider option, but no sign of either in the UK yet.

There are a couple of accounts and credit cards that don't charge a set fee, often credit cards have say a 2.5% charge on conversions that's perfectly acceptable for small purchases ... well a lot better than £1.50!
[Android General] michael.ahdett:

I have been getting similar. Frustrating and hard to get around without calling the bank to check their daily forex rate and having their list of card charges handy before calculating the actual price manually. Seems a PITB for a $2 app :(
[Android General] Ireyyo:
Im from Mexico and I experienced something similar, I just bought one of the 10 cents Apps and I got the notification of two charges, both from Google, one for the 10 cents and one for $1 US. I know its not my bank, because I've used my card on a recent trip to the US and my bank didnt apply any extra charges, besides on the detail of the transaction it says GOOGLE GOOGLE.COM/CHCA US for the extra...

Any news from google on that?
[Android General] AllGamer:
$0.10 apps really only cost $0.10 for me in Canada
[Android General] Dragoon0309:
That's just an authorization hold. That happens when you use a new card for the first time on the android market. that's a hold not a charge. It'll go away in a few days and the $1 will be returned.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] silivrenion:
Has anyone customized the Nook Color lock screen yet? I was thinking of using WidgetLocker, but since it links itself to the home button, and we already have Softkeys + ADW/other home linked, I'm afraid of giving the home button too much to do.

Hi,

Check the line "... If you go for a drive..." (+/- middle of the page).

I would like to be able (using CM7) to receive incoming calls like this while navigating.

What gives this possibility? Sense (when I was using Sense, it wasn't working)? The navigation soft? A modded apk?

Thank you for your answer.
[Desire Themes and Apps] reef2009:
Thats a little problem. You Need HTC Laputa! (Locations)

Here are the files.

I think you need to place them in the system app folder if they work on Gingerbread.

Then you need to have an account I think. Thats about 5 euro a month.

Good luck!
[Desire Themes and Apps] Nuntius:
Thank you for that but why pay when it seems to be a stock free app on the link I posted?

[Desire Themes and Apps] reef2009:

[Desire Themes and Apps] reef2009:
You need to flash it. Or use through fastboot.

They need to be in systemapp folder.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Nuntius:
Ho, that's HTC Navi...

I thought being able to recieve a phone call while navigating (no matter what navigation software is used) was a Sense capability.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] todubiro:

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] teh roxxorz:
Almost sounds like you were using an Evervolv rom [happened to me when I was on it.] But what rom are you using? I suggest doing a clean wipe and installing the latest google apps.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Toxin715:
Did you also flash the format file
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] barnacles10:
That format file essentially does the same thing as wiping through recovery.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] WrlsFanatic:
I don't think it does. I don't think normal wiping in recovery wipes the system folder. That's what I read once. Might not be true, but I don't see it say "WIPING SYSTEM..." in Amon RA when I tell it to format. It does data, cache, and sd .secure, I think, but not system.

Edit 1: Oh, and I'm one of those people who are anal about where you post things. Have you never been to a forum before? CLEARLY there is a questions and answers sub-form under the Supersonic main forum section.

Edit 2: I just realized who I responded to. Barnacles, I'm guessing you know better than I do since you actually helped develop the ONLY stock Gingerbread ROM for the EVO that's out right now. :)
