They never removed it. You have to put your hosts file back in order.

Could you refresh me on this process, forgot how to do it since it's been about 2 months since I messed around with the smallhttp app for my computer. Thanks in advance. I've also tried downloading the kdz on my cellular and still get an error message.

So far only 2 things I find wrong with this rom are...

1 - Battery charging icon.

2 - If you press the video call button in contacts, you can't quit out of the video call also it doesn't work.

are you wondering how to navigate to find your hosts file, or how to restore it to its original state?

Well. I like the rom. Havering some serious data bandwidth issues. Keen monitoring it an I drive around Dallas to Fort Worth all day. I'm always in a 3g or 4g network. Phone drops data connection every tower chafe for 3 seconds. Drives me nuts.

I used Doomed Froyo before the upgrade. Guess I got used to the oc clock and solid build. Kinda ruined it for expectations lol

I have props and donations waiting for him when he gets it finished. Thank you Trekfan for.doing that. Very awesome of you.


About this rom. The following bugs are present.

1. Data signal loss on all bands.
2.Voice call quality barely manageable. Receiving is fine but talking makes it in patches.
3. Bluetooth is barely functional (been a problem on most roms)
4. Fc errors on random freshly installed apps.
5. Memory use needs to be trimmed down by the rom.

Some of the above might not be a direct result of this rom. I was going to continue to test it and filter the rom to non rom bugs. Since the dev has ditched I'm assuming then I see little point. I'm reporting this to the benifit of anyone who is useing this rom or any dev who takes it over.

Nice Rom !!!!

This rom works very well for me. The battery stats are borked and youtube 3d doesn't look right to me but other then that so far so good. I have used overclocked modules included with script to activate them and set overclocking and it worked great using rom toolbox to run script at boot. Now running with new beast final 1.3 kernel and no problems yet. Haven't had any force close problems other then the market when i first flashed...I finally flashed gapps for gingerbread 2.3.5 over it and haven't had any problems since. Also a thank you out to the dev..hope all is well...I dont know about ditching or whatever but sometimes people have personal issues and the guy hasnt been on xda or twitter for a couple weeks. Besides this is free software so be happy with what you get or learn to do it yourself. Just my opinion I could be wrong.

I just switched to this from bio2.9. It works great but gotta give it them 3weeks! Cyanogen 7.2 was dissapointing on this phone. Anyone have an overclock flash for this yet? Lots of theoretical looking ones in the development section but Acura claims to have it. (Can't get a download tho!)

    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)

    DOWNLOAD:
    Thrill Seeker 2.1

    Thrill Seeker 2.0
    md5: ac66860fdb565e2eb839a8f64bfb8d08



    Removed_Apps/Widgets (does NOT include the ATT crap or the market apps like Maps, Books, etc)
    Mirror: Mirror Site dev-host
    DO NOT FLASH THIS ZIP! extract it first. inside you can choose which apps to remove and there are instructions for creating an update.zip included.

    ENJOY!

    launch time

    Here is the first installment of the new thrillseeker. I will start a new thread when I have the chance with a change log...in a nutshell I removed dsp manager added Beats & Xloud Audio Mods. also added Bravia Engine and a bunch of build prop tweaks and scripts from Prometheus Rom. A Huge thanks to Samno for that stuff and for sharing such a great rom and kernel with us. :thumbup: I highly recommend flashing his prometheus 1.4.5.1 kernel after install as you can overclock and none of the scripts work unless you do. So without further ramblings.

    Thrillseeker 3.0 beta
    http://d-h.st/HBU

    i dont use bluetooth so someone please confirm that it works for me.
    also i will try to upload a non at&t version soon.
