I present to you Thrill Seeker 2 Gingerbread v20p.
I took a little bit different approach than I did with the original Thrill Seeker rom. I felt that LG did a very good job with gingerbread and so I built this rom around the LG software on the phone (just rethemed) rather than using 3rd party apps. Battery life has been amazing for me and the phone really flies.
Prerequisites
This is based on the ATT V20p firmware. So you will NEED to upgrade to that first or this wont work.
Starting with next update I will make update packages available along with full rom downloads. This will make for much smaller packages to flash when updating from one version to the next. I lost a lot of my work when updating my system so keeping track of all the changes between 2.0 and 2.1 was impossible.
Also, Im adding in another download link (dev-host) for those that cant access 4shared (its uploading as im typing this). If anybody still cant download from either of those sites let me know.
Heres a quick changelog to get things rolling:
2.1:
Added in Tekunas OC Modules (Original Thread)
Added working wifi tether app (no client needed. Just turn on and connect)
Ability to Enable 2g only and choose network mode in Network Settings.
Added percent to battery icon (need to fix the charging icons)
Fixed 3d button taking pics in camera (this may have had side affects though. I think it messed with some other defaults)
Minor theme updates (lockscreen widgets are NOT permanent. Forgot to fix them before i started uploading)
Reverted to Gingerbread music player. This fixed widget issues.
Enabled force of gpu rendering.
Probably some more stuff I forgot to mention...
2.0:
Fully De-odexed.
Rom is Rooted with latest SU installed.
Completely rethemed every aspect of the rom. Gave a very ICS vibe.
Made a few tweaks for performance, useability, and battery savings (however modest). Still waiting on LG to release kernel source code.
Removed all the ATT bloat (except contacts sync. that has to stay)
Added in a File Manager, Titanium Backup, and DSP Manager (equalizer)
Roboto Font
Update to latest Flash Player and Google Apps.
ICS Music Player (feedback on this one. Not sure I like it better than GB version)
Removed apps like Facebook, Twitter, etc because they get updated frequently in the market and it didnt make sense to have them in your /system folder as well as you /data folder.
Still have more to come but I wanted to get this little bit out to you guys since there was a lack of options at the moment. Ill roll out minor releases as I add/fix things.
Issues:
2.1: 4G possibly not working due to flex.xml change.
Battery charge icons distorted.
2.0I havent found any functionality bugs as of yet but please dont hesitate to point them out. There a few theming inconsistencies ive noticed, so please point these out as well. I want this rom to look as good as it performs.
Also, if there are features you want please suggest them. Doesnt mean they'll get implemented, but it helps if I know what you guys want. Ill try to include what I think fits with the rom.
Installation:
This rom is flashable via CWM recovery.
On first install I recommend a full data wipe. At the very least please wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache (advanced menu of recovery) before flashing. If you dont follow this step then please DO NOT POST ANY BUGS. Reflash with the wipes first. If the file wont flash please verify the md5 sum with the one listed below the download link. (There are many programs to do this on your computer and phone)
