As Franco has said many times there will be some features that people will keep asking for over and over again, so it will be your decision to give support or not for those. :p So there goes my humble opinion regarding the use of App2SD scripts like DarkTremor: Essentially the advantage for...

Hi All... just wanted to confirm that after flashing Fserve's V15 CFS the Speedtest app and other speedtesting websites are correctly reporting my Internet speed (2 Megabit on Wifi), so definitely there was an issue with data transfer speed on Franco's V19.1 (the Speedtest app was reporting less...

Well... I'm myself embarking on this trip of developing Android apps (I'm a Software Engineer but I have not touched a line of code in a few years), and I can give you a couple of suggestions about it. The good thing about Android apps development is that is totally free to start since the two...

Guys... I won't be giving this kernel (and Franco's) a try until Sunday that I'll be back home, but could any of you give the Speedtest.net app a try using this new versions of the kernel with the QoS adjustments? I have the impression that the QoS was the reason why the Speedtest app does not...

I've not tried 19.3 just yet because I'm currently out of town, but I can say that 19.1 BFS is giving me great battery life, whereas 19.2 BFS which I tried briefly before hitting the road was draining my battery faster than 19.1. One thing to keep in mind when you're hunting for battery...

GPS working fine for me with 6.5.7 with FK 19.1. BFS, just used it yesterday with Navitel GPS and with GPS Test and it locked in a few seconds. BTW, I tried with only GPS active (cellphone tower positioning was off), just to make sure that I was getting satellite only positioning. I would...

Even though I haven't done deep testing I've gotta say that on first install my battery was draining faster with 19.2 BFS than with 19.1 BFS, so I would suggest you wipe everything and reinstall Mik's 6.5.7 and 19.1 BFS again. Just for the record my install routine is: 1- Do all the wipes...

For me the only actual upgrade from my current Optimus One that I would consider would be to a Samsung Galaxy S1 (I also don't have budget for S2 now). Until then I'll stay happily with my O1 with CM7 and FK. :D

Hey 0x0v3rfl0w, thanks for releasing a new CM7 ROM. As a recently converted-to-CM7 fan and with the release of Franco's amazing 19.x kernel I think it's a great time to have some options for the community based on CM7, so each user can pick the one that's more tailored to their usage pattern...

Well... I can say that when I was using Paolo's LOL 1.4.2 ROM I would always see ami304d popping up on the battery history screen as one of the process that had consumed CPU, most of the times it would be the one on the top position. Now that I've switched to Mik's CM7 6.5.7 with FK 19.1(BFS) I...

Have any of you guys tried the "Speedtest.net" app (from market) with Mik's ROM?. I'm using 6.5.7 with FK 19.1 (BFS). Today I downloaded it and ran a test and the app does not measure things up correctly. First the latency give pretty high values (in the 800ms range) and then the...

Well... believe it or not it seems that this problem has existed for ages on the SDK installation and after all this time the Google devs haven't solved it. I faced this and after 15 minutes of frustration I googled it and found the solution. The answer is so simple that you'll laugh and cry at...

Man... that's short of amazing. :eek: I'm definitely puzzled on how some of you guys are able to get such a long battery life with your phones. So far for me Battery life with Mik's 6.5.7 with Franco Kernel 19.1 (BFS) seems better than other ROMs/Kernels I've tried but nothing even close to...

Perhaps that would be the only way that MeeGo could survive by "Being ported to Android phones" hahaha, 'cause it seems that Nokia themselves are going to kill it even before official launch: http://www.engadget.com/2011/08/11/nokia-n9-gets-axed-in-germany-global-tour-looks-even-more-meage/

Just to make sure that the problem is not at the level of the WiFi router I would re-install the ROM that you had before (or restore nandroid backup if you have one) and confirm that you can actually connect. My first guess is that since this is a Workplace WiFi network, the admin might have...

Just wanted to report that I've been using v19.1 (BFS) on Mik's 6.5.7 for the last 24 hours and... - No hanged screen bug - No Wifi issues Regarding the Touchscreen/CPU Load issue I've tested with the "System Tuner" app that others have mentioned and I must say that definitely the CPU load...

So far I've experienced great performance and battery life with the combination of Mik's CM7 6.5.7 with Franco Kernel 19.1 (BFS). No WiFi bug for me, and the touchscreen bug is not something to die for (still need to test more of course). The only big problem that I'm having is that DarkTremor...

I'm using DoubleTwist because unlike MoboPlayer it supports grabbing your media from specific folders and not the entire file system, and I just want to stick to only one app for Music and Video playing. Does anyone knows if there's a way to define specific folders with MoboPlayer?

I wanna try this combination of 6.5.7 and V19 that you mention (battery life it's quite important to me). Did you flash the BFS or CFS version of the Kernel? AFAIK... for Mik's it should be BFS, but just wanna confirm??

Talking about WiFi Tx power... what are recommended values for someone like me who use my home Wifi with a router on a small apartment? LOL 1.4.2 Rom (which I use) has WiFi Tx set to 20 by default, but I've always wondered if that's already a "reduced value" or what. Does anyone knows what's...

How to backup original Firmware?? Hi all, hope there's still someone around who knows about this old device... I'd like to attempt the WM 6.1 upgrade process described on this thread, but first I want to backup the original firmware on the device just in case I want to later on take it back to...

Always remember to check search on the dev forum: ;) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1060121

Well... reading you guys talking about 2-3 days of battery life makes me think that I'm either doing something wrong, or my battery is a bit damaged, 'cause the only way I could think my Optimus One would last for 2-3 days would be with no use at all. I got this phone from a friend who had...

Well.. don't know if we're talking about the same value, but here is anyways: I'm using LOL 1.4.2 and on the docs Paolo states that for his Rom Wifi TX power is set by default at "20", and if you want to change it there is a little script located at: /etc/setwifi.sh Checking the content of...

And doesn't KDZ wipes all Internal memory? Sent from my LG-P500 using Tapatalk

OK think I got it, so the step about moving to sd seems to be related to saving your current installed Apps, but since I don't care about saving anything then I should not need that step. I'm also curious about something: If I flash to Gingerbread V20 (which obviously has the new baseband) and...

This is a pretty much old known issue. Use the search forum feature with "stagefright quadrant" as keywords and you'll find plenty info about that. Usually the Quadrant scores that you'll see around here are with stagefright disabled, unless its specified otherwise.

According to PocketNow the new Optimus One will be the "LG Univa" (Kinda hate the nam Nice article with a roundup of the rest of the LG Smartphones roster that the company supposedly will be launching during the rest of 2011. According to them the replacement for the Optimus One won't be the...

Check the comments on the post about OpenOptimus ROM on the DEV forum, it's a common issue and ciaox himself have replied. Essentially you'll be fine after taking out the battery and rebooting. It happened to me and it was fine after the battery reboot.

Hi all, Since I purchased my P500 already rooted and with a custom ROM installed, I want to learn this KDZ process so I'm able to return my phone to stock settings in the case I want to sell it in the near future. I've already downloaded the original stock firmware specific to my mobile carrier...

Correct me if I'm wrong but for a 2.3.4 rom shouldn't you be using the BFS version of Franco Kernel? I believe that CFS is for Froyo roms (at least that's what Franco himself told me on a post a few weeks ago) Sent from my LG-P500 using Tapatalk

I haven't tested any of the 2.3.x ROMs but I tested most of the Froyo ones, and definitely for 2.2.x I got the best battery life with LOL 1.4.2

Maybe he was testing "Smartphone Skydiving" but the parachute didn't open. :D:eek: On the serious it's definitely a miracle that the screen is not cracked/leaking (perhaps it will in a short while) so guru_urug's advice could be your only chance. Otherwise well.... it was your fault so just may...

Go to the link that Jrhodes85 gave you and download both ClockworkMod 3.1.0.0 and AmonRA 2.2.1a, since you'll need to switch from one to the other depending on the ROM that you want to flash. As a very general rule older ROMs (like Megatron or LOL) need AmonRA, whereas newer ROMs (most 2.2.2 and...

This is an old myth that had lived on from the days where cellphone batteries where made of Ni-Mh and not Li-Ion as today, unfortunately most cellphone stores employees have kept telling everyone from generation to generation to "charge the battery for 24 hours the first time". What's actually...

Just checking something: I've been reading this thread regularly and I think that on the "Known Bugs" it used to say that battery life with 3G was worse than with Froyo... am I right or was that on another thread?? I wanna know about that because I really want to try this ROM but I've been put...

Well my experience with iOS comes from an iPod Touch 3rd Gen that I've owned for 1.5 years, and my experience with Android comes from my O1 that I've owned for 2 weeks. As others have mentioned I love my O1 and I think that Android as an "OS" it's definitely great, and I believe that if we were...

Have you checked with a different Rom? when I installed Devoid I was not very happy with its battery life when having the phone in 3g mode (even when idle), and it was worse when using mobile internet (3g) Right now I'm testing Light 2.2.2 and at least to me the battery life its better Sent...

Uhmm.. what's your OC speed?? I tested OpenOptimus a couple of days ago and I didn't get that score with that ROM out of the box.

I have a shortcut to "Manage Applications" that I created thanks to Launcher Pro. That way I can force close Apps with as few clicks a possible without using a task killer Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App

[Discussion][Poll] Do you think we need "ROM Categories" for Gingerbread releases ? Hi all, building upon a conversation started on this thread regarding the different Gingerbread ROMs that are being currently tested/released by our much appreciated developers, I'd like to start a discussion...

Well... I'm far from an expert in here since I've only had my P500 for like two weeks, but in my humble opinion if after trying different ROMs and advice from the forum the problem persists this might very well be a hardware problem, probably at the CPU or GPU level. karthikus... have you tried...

Use Market Enabler... pick "Trollafone Mobile" as the operator and you're done!!! :D You'll see some other great apps available with that operator (like Trollamod Recovery and Trollanium Backup) LOL n00b alert: (It's just a joke)

Thanks dude... silly me for not checking the FAQ, not my usual self (I'm the kinda guy who even reads the "Getting Started" booklets hahahahaha) Phone booted just fine after removing the battery... I'm know playing with my shiny OpenOptimus :D

15 minutes on the Android logo Hi ciaox and all, I'm currently installing OpenOptimus... all of the installation steps went fine, and after file copy was completed I did a "reboot now". Phone passed the LG logo and then showed the Android Logo, but I've been waiting for 15 minutes now and...

The good guys at GSMArena revisited the comparison between the Samsung Galaxy S2, Samsung Galaxy S Plus and LG Optimus 2X, and I must say that on the web browsing test (look at the video) I was not impressed by the Optimus 2X performance. On the other hand both Samsung looked pretty snappy...

It's the internal cache that the Android Virtual Machine stores for applications. Which recovery do you have installed? CWM or AmonRA? If it's CWM then the "Wipe Dalvik Cache" is located inside the "Advanced" menu.

As far as I know you don't have to wipe "Data", but "Cache" seems to be recommended. I recently updated my Devoid. Froyo-Final with the latest Franco's V18 Kernel and wiped only "Cache" and "Dalvik Cache". Everything seems to be working fine afterwards.

I asked about it a couple of days ago on the "devoid. #Froyo-Final" topic an Franco replied. Essentially you need to use BFS for Android version 2.3.x, otherwise you need to flash CFS. Franco updated his post on the Kernel (notice that the BFS link now says "for 2.3")
