Any idea when we can expect an update? Just love this ROM but it's a bit outdated as for the changes owain has made.

use exDialer, you can set your contacts to "show contacts with numbers olny".

exDialer isn't necessary. If you want to see "Contacts with Numbers only", press the Stock Dialer (The blue phone icon, not the blue contact icon). Then in the top right press Contacts (the Person Icon), that will show you "Contacts with Numbers only"

External SD consider as Internal storage

I'm using Nova HD 1.1 (still :D, because it's stable and more than enough for me). I have an 32gb SD card and I want to install apps and data to that card. The thing is, the phone considers my 32gb card as Internal storage ( Root folder/ mnt/ emmc) and 8gb internal storage as SD card ( Root folder/ mnt/ sdcard). The weird thing is, apps data are stored in sdcard (8gb) in stead of "Internal storage" (32gb), which was vice versa in GB rom.

Any one ? Any idea how to fix that?
Really appreciate.

Thanks in advance.

1).Does anybody knows if todays opera update works with our rom?In "whats new" says it works with ics roms.
2).It would be great too,if apex had the option to put folders in menu(like go launcher) to organize apps better.
3).I dont like the edit contacts.I cant put in different row "name","surname",address,city,area etc.
4).I think it we be great if there would be an app,to help adding in contacts fb,twitter,and email.There are somes,but not working properly.I would like to be in "edit contact mode",and press a button and go to twitter and choose which friend i want to merge.

4) You can use Contapps, it's a cool apps, can be found on Google Play. I use it to connect my contact with Facebook and Twitter friends, my contacts now look interesting everyday, as my friends change their avatars/ profile pics frequently.

Sorry for the late reply. My o2x still hasn't sent to LG yet.

But I will update tmr. Kernel development will be stopped for a while. I will just change the default kernel to Harsh Kernel:)

I just last week got my o2x.. First installed CM7 in it and battery drained a lot.. Even tried custom kernels and the same thing, exept more power.. Now I desided to try out this and hell, it works good and no battery draining. With CM7 it was 10-15% a hour and now with Nova its less than 5% a hour, combined usage and idle. Loving it! Great work guys!

Edit: Checked some stats after 2 hours. Battery usage 10% and earlier it would have been atleast 25%. Dont think I'll be going back to the older one :)

Why did you change from SuperNova kernel to Harsh? Im still using the previous rom and everything seems to be working, only one freeze has happened when the FaceUnlock didnt want to work and i had to take battery off. So im pretty happy with this also because the battery lasts so long. Heavy usage went over 16 hours easily, even listened music from phone speakers for over 2 hours :)

    F.A.Q.

    1. Unlock Screen then Auto Reboot
    Don't touch the lock icon.
    From top of the screen bring down the notification screen and select settings button in that.
    In settings check if you have any enabled accessiblity services. (thanks to varunbhatbm for the tips)

    2. My Battery Life is worst, any solution?
    Try match your RIL with your Baseband.
    Also, you should discharge your phone below 20%,
    and then fully charge the phone.
