Hi All XDA members,

I have LG P500 with 2.3 & want to flash it with ICS 3.0.0. Want to check which is the latest ROM I can use.

Is the ICS 3.0.0 ROM stable OR has some bugs. Please send me the download link with flashing details.

I have 8 GB SD & since the phone has 200 MB internal memory, can anyone guide if I will need to create another partition on SD Card before OR

after flashing new ROM. Also do post the procedure to end the low memory issue.

Thanking You All.

Hi there! You can Install Android 4.2.2(JellyBean) on your device. It seems to be stable, but all custom ROMs have one or the other bug!
There is no need to partition SD CARD for installing a ROM.
You can download the ROM from here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2142413
The Instructions are also given there!

P.S : Keep in mind, ICS is not 3.0.0 -_- its 4.0!

If you want to try more newer Android, you can try this:

It's based on KitKat 4.4.2 and now it's on 8th release.
I've tried it and I think it's stable enough, the only bug I found is when I activate and deactivate WiFi tethering the device will reboot it self or if not reboot when you need to use WiFi connection you will need to reboot it manually.
I also found this bug on this ICS ROM

who have the same symptom of reboot automatically when I activate and deactivate WiFi tethering.

Hi,

Android 4.0 will work (I tested it with Cyanogenmod 10), but might drain your battery, be advised.
That's the reason why I've switched from Android 4.0 back to 2.3.7 (Cyanogenmod 7).
