Guest thugimmortal Posted November 4, 2010 Report Share Posted November 4, 2010 Just finished flashing to UK Carphone Warehouse 2.1 Included apps are. (beside the standard apps) LG App Advisor Facbook For LG Fourquare Layar Quickoffice Shazam The Sims 3 Twitter for LG Voice Search (FINALLY its back, didnt seem to be included in any other 2.1 ROMs) Wapedia 117MB of phone storage avilable after flashing with nothing else downloaded. In regards to the sims 3, I wish this wasnt built in, as its not something i really ply therefore it just sits there taking up memory and getting in the way. Would have been better if it had been something they gave you the option to download, i like to have my phone free of clutter and things i dont need Cann you install this on a gt540 on 02 giffgaff if so does it unlock your phone to any network or does uk open mean you can install on any network and as this is a uk rom do you use the lg pc suit or the kdz installer Thankz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cooperzetec Posted November 4, 2010 Report Share Posted November 4, 2010 is the car phone warehouse rom official? can it be downloaded via the lg update tool? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest thugimmortal Posted November 4, 2010 Report Share Posted November 4, 2010 Apologies if I offended you, thug, but I was laughing at the response, not the original statement! I am currently using the Baltic ROM and that seems fine. A couple of teething problems, like GPS being slow to start, but it's ok. Haven't tried the Europe Open, cos I'm waiting for the Carphone Warehouse one to come out.....or maybe 2.2 !!!! Thats ok mate lol Was it easy to upgrade im dieing to upgrade but im scared i might brick the phone have you got any pointers Thanks mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Quinny898 Posted November 4, 2010 Report Share Posted November 4, 2010 I updated using the official updater and I got the stuck on download mode. When I unpluged the phone, like LG told me to it would only start in emergency mode and show the lg logo in silver, start in download mode or start in charging mode. I tried all the factory resets and it still doesnt work, LG will not help via email and now when I connect the phone o the PC it doesnt show up! HELP! IS MY PHONE BRICKED?

Guest Ev1lM0nk3y Posted November 5, 2010 Report Share Posted November 5, 2010 (edited) Heres what you need for the sims 3. Or you can download if frmo the official LG server here http://www.lg.com/uk/products/documents/Sw...al_20100709.zip Instructions and files ar ein the zip file. When follwing the instructions you dont need to follow the bit about installing the apk file, since this is already installed on the phone. YOu just need to do the bit about putting the Data files on the SD card. Yes you can get it off LG but you will need to arrange all the files. I have arranged all the files in the correct folders so you can just drop it straight on the sd card.

Guest he6rt6gr6m Posted November 5, 2010 Report Share Posted November 5, 2010 Sims 3 work for anyone with the new CPUK ROM? Mine doesn't. I did a straight Baltic 2.1 to UK 2.1 Update, but just closes after the EA screen. >.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest he6rt6gr6m Posted November 5, 2010 Report Share Posted November 5, 2010 Will try that now. Gone back to the Baltics ROM. The CWUK ROM made an application disappear from the Market that I needed for a backup of contacts, so I'm gonna stick with this one, I reckon. Never had a problem with it anyway. If anyone knows of a ROM that has even less stuff on it, or a way to remove things like Facebook for LG, Twitter for LG, etc. let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having rooted my phone I used Titanium backup to remove the unwanted programs, though it didn't matter so much after I added app2sd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
