Guest lipobay Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 Hi Paul and LG 2x'ers Android ROM virgin needing quick bit of advise. Have been on Froyo stock ROM since purchased phone back in March. Phone details as follows: Baseband - 1035.21_20110218 Kernel - 2.6.32.9-dirty Bulid Number - FRG83G LGE Version - LGP990-V10b How best to get this updated to GR5 with as much LG badness removed as possible, only thing have found useful is the OnScreenPhone app to connect via HDMI. On daily basis I use :- GO Launcher, GO Dialer, Android messaging system. Following clean full battery powerup I kill Running services:- CarHome, LG Weather Widget, OnscreenPhone as find they sap battery. I use 'Toolkit' Task manager by Matthieu Guenebaud to disable running apps that I dont want killing battery power even though have Background Data, Mobile Data, etc.. turned off. I then click on 'Fast Reboot' app to reboot remaining services on phone. These two steps I do religiously before putting my phone on standby for any large amount of time. Doing this I have found am able to keep battery running quite well. Anyhow, please advise an Android ROM virgin on how best to get Gingerbread ROM goodness on my phone - does it come with all the phone firmware/radio fixes etc..? Is it ext3? Note: This is my first Android phone, having been Windows Mobile fanboy for some time -- not want to go to 'brickland' with this phone, lol :) Am willing to add my views on the differences I see between this and LG original Froyo ROM -- so see me as a good 'Scientific Control Experiment' Lol :) Help much appreciated ! P.S. - Have paid for Modaco Ad Free Memebership -- MODACO ROCKS!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fabarati Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 (edited) So I have a tiny problem: I can't get Back-to-EXT3 to actually convert back to ext3. I'm now stuck in a bootloop. Any other way to convert? Edited November 11, 2011 by fabarati Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Paul Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 If you're coming to this ROM from an EXT4 ROM, I updated BackToEXT3 to include the cache partition also. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest c.joenie Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 Paul? Did they actually release the sources yet? (So can you make a powerfull FR19 alike kernel with usb tethering still in one piece?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest fabarati Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 Ok, couldn't get BackToExrt3 to work, so I NVflashed, rooted and CWM'd my phone. Wiped data, cache and dalvik, flashed the ROM and now it's stuck on the LG screen with the loading bar. How long should I wait before calling it a failure?

Please read the other newbie questions topic someone else started. It's still on page one. I answered almost all questions there, I was also new until 3 days ago :) And you can never brick the phone, it can always be reflashed with Nvflash (unless of course you overclock, overheat and physically destroy something).

Guest Sheppie Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 Great job paul, thnx for the hard work :). While it may not be very high on your list, i realy want to remove the music statusbar from the theme without having to leave the music player in the custom rom. So the option bake your rom without music toggle would be great but i can live with it ... for now ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
