Happened to me too after the 10.4.6 update. I used KF First Aide though and got root working again: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069117

How's this any different than running devoid + my patch here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116268 Just curious, because that is exactly what I run on my P509.

I haven't tried it yet, so I don't know for sure, but my guess is that we will need different shared-libraries to deal with the updated 2.3 baseband. So my expectation is that we either need to wait for a 2.3update from T-Mobile, or to maybe find anothe LG phone with the same baseband that we...

It uses your own phone-number, and you can call to other real phones with no additional charge. Other than that there isn't much difference.

FYI, my goal is to create a utility that can temporarily enable root on a phone and then disable it when done. My idea is to move the 'su' command out of /system/bin onto /data, and then use unionfs to teporarily add it back onto /system/bin on command. When done, you'll be able to click to...

Ok, I have fuse fully working using the latest fuse version 2.8.5 In order to build, I got a copy of statvfs.c and statvfs.h from the shieldroid project. I had to modify the definition of f_fsid to be 'unsigned long' and adjust statvfs.c appropriately I also ended up disabling multi-threaded...

Status: working! The tar file has some binaries which work. If you aren't a developer you probably don't care about this. I'm working on getting FUSE working on my P500, and thought I'd share my experiences. FUSE is a mechanism to mount lots of filesystems (like fusecompress, sshfs, or...

T-Mobile offers a service of using Wifi to send/receive calls rather than the cellular service. It costs minutes for Pay-as-you-go folks, but is free if you have a plan (at least in the US). The feature shows up as 'Wifi Calling' and automatically updates if you have a Wifi connection. It is...

Thanks. I had no problems getting 15.1 from git and building it!. I haven't yet tried to install, but that's upnext.

Franco, Any chance you could update your git repostory with your latest kernel? I'd like to build it with a couple new filesystems (either fuse, unionfs, or aufs, I'm not sure which yet). Basically I need an overlay filesystem, and your kernel is the best. I built what you've got there now...

These look like the numbers I got with the stock ROM (10l in my case). Moving to an alternate ROM gave me better than a 10 point jump in neocore. I think someone said that the 3d drivers in the stock ROM suck

Here is a zip that should apply to any p500 2.2 based rom to get Wifi Calling (with T-Mobile) working. I've only tested it via clockwork mod. And I've only verified it using T-Moble in the US. One note. I used a pretty dirty method to update the build.prop file, so don't install the zip more...

I'm going to try to make a zip that will update the rom properly. I don't yet know how to alter the build.prop file from a zip, but assuming I can figure that out, I'll post it.

yep it seems to work for me. I was much more interested in the Wifi-Calling though, as my cell reception is terrible at home.

If you have T-Mobile as a provider, you can use wifi to send/receive calls with your normal phone-number. The software is called 'Wifi Calling' and only works with T-Mobile. It comes stock on the Optimus-T/P509, but takes several tweaks to get it working properly on a P500 based ROM as I learned.

franco, is there a reason why you left this enabled in init.thunderg.rc (in the ramdisk image): on property:dev.bootcomplete=1 start qcom-post-boot on your ROM? It prevents using init.d scripts to set the default the default governor or min-frequency (because it runs last). That is the...

I forgot this part: in build.prop (I put it near the end) rild.libpath=/system/lib/librilswitch.so rilswitch.vendorlibpath=/system/lib/libril-qc-1.so rilswitch.ganlibpath=/system/lib/libganril.so I'm able to run devoid.franco with Wifi Calling using these settings and the above listed files...

Has anyone else confirmed this? Mine doesn't connect. here's everything kineto related I see from logcat: W/PackageManager( 1478): Not granting permission android.permission.DEVICE_POWER to package com.android.kineto (protectionLevel=2 flags=0xbe4d) W/PackageManager( 1478): Unknown permission...

I was running a stock rom with no overclocking (all non-stock apps terminated before run: neocore ~33.5 Going to franco.devoid (without a kernel upgrade or any overclocking): neocore ~44.2 Switching to interactive governor/600/245: neocore ~47.2 Overclocked to 768/480/interactive: neocore ~55.1...

For anyone interested, the WebToGo app seems to be just a wrapper to bring you to http://home.web2go.com, so it is useless. It isn't included as an apk, so if you want to use it on a custom ROM, you need to deodex WebtogoHome.odex then recompile to apk Wifi Calling is actually...

Well, I for one would like an official P509 gingerbread. It would save me a lot of the hassle I'm currently going through to get a couple t-mobile apps running on a custom rom. Of course an official P500 gingerbread doesn't mean t-mobile will deem to provide us an update. The other benefit of...

A few other notes: the following framework files can be preserved from the custom ROM (no need to overwrite): am.jari : ok android.policy.jar : not ok android.test.runner.jar : ok bmgr.jar : ok core.jar : ok ext.jar : ok...

This probably belongs in the developer section, but I don't have permission to post there yet) This work is very preliminary. It isn't really anything more than a starting point right now. It DOES NOT yet provide a faithful representation of a custom ROM in the emulator. Current status...

I saw a video of a preliminary 'official' Gingerbread running on a P500 which says end of June I think. I have no idea if it is really official though

To be more specific, I'm saying that with the zips provided in the link, I got an error when trying to flash CWM 3.1.0.0 when running AmonRa 2.2.1. I was able to successfully reflash the 3.1.0.0 zip from a running CWM env, and was able to flash the 3.0.2.4 zip from AmonRa. So at least on my...

Does anyone know what the difference between CWM 3.0.2.4 and 3.1.0.0 is? I made a bunch of backups on 3.1.0.0, but it is easier to switch between 3.0.2.4 and AmonRa then it is to do the same for 3.1.0.0, so I was thinking of using those 2 (when I need to use 1 vs the other), but I wanted to be...

Thanks for that link. I was able to use it to easily switch between AmonRa and ClockworkMod. It didn't work going from AmonRa 2.2.1 -> ClockworkMod 3.1.0.0, but I was able to go to 3.0.2.4, and back and forth from there. It is a lot easier to try different recoveries this way!

I have a P509 with no data-plan (pay as you go). I often use wifi-calling though (when signal is weak/non-existant) as well as web2go when I don't have wifi access and need to get on the net. I tried a couple of the custom ROMs, and I really like devoid, but I was unable to get these apps...
