Thanks for the reply notion. I flashed nova v3. I didn't download v3.1 yet. What can be the problem?

Problem abou what? If you talk about keyboard prediction, go to keyboard settings and disable all options about prediction and so.

Yes, it's possible, get this application.
Then, create an empty text file with: echo "minmax" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

After that, create a shortcut in homescreen with gscript for that particular file.

As for 300 Mhz, seems to me it's hardware limited.
Droid X is like this too, can't have 200 as minimum frequency.

Fantastic solution! I'll implement it right now.

i am using v3.1 and i faced a problem.
i can't get the notification of whatsapp after i have locked the screen
maybe it is a bug about transfer of data?..as this the whatsapp can function normally in offical rom
thank you

Whatsapp works for me so it might have been network or server related

Noejn, first of all thank you for this great ROM.

Got one question;

I'd like to use move cursor gesture, but I guess we can only use it with LG Keyboard.

Is there any other way to use it with other keyboards? If there is not, how can I install LG Keyboard?

Use App Inj to install it.

Haha ok
@haitzo Really don't know. If you can, download again and flash, wipe before. It's very strange. What theme do you see? What color are battery or signal icons?

In case I use your MIUI icons, it would be a different theme, not for WP7 theme. I've been very busy these last days so couldn't make new theme.
My next to-do things is fixing WP7 theme bugs, make the Gingerbread theme for this new v3/v3.1 ROM and then, when all this is fixed, make a new theme.

Downlaoding bootanimation. Will also try to make the white on black bootanimation since some of you are requesting it.

:)

Okay I understand :)

If you like the bootanimation feel free to use it for whatever. Also if the framerate is too high or low, please adjust.

Thanks for the bootanimations, although I believe that the v3 one is gorgeous and fits. Besidea, it's Noejn choice.

You can always make them flashable and post them!

Noejn... how does nova v3 manage the emergency boot in case of OC bootloop?

Formerly it was as easy as remove sd card before boot... How can we manage it now?

Regards.

You have the theme man! What you are asking is about Launcher7, not included n the ROM at all.
Yours should look like this:

Mine looks like this because of Launcher 7:

    Version 8 [31/8/2011]
    ~~~
    A nova (plural novae) is a cataclysmic nuclear explosion caused by the accretion of hydrogen on to the surface of a white dwarf star, which ignites and starts nuclear fusion in a runaway manner. Novae are not to be confused with supernovae or luminous red novae.

    Nova (click it for trivia!) is a ROM for Optimus Black which aims to replace the stock ROM and give you what stock doesn't: minimalism and speed. Any LG and OEM trace has been reduced to a minimum and it has been significantly improved and optimized while keeping the most bugfree as possible. I hope you enjoy using it as much as I have coming up with it.​

    Alert.png
    A wipe is required when first flashing Nova, however, unless otherwise stated, no wipe is needed to upgrade between versions.

    1. Download nova-xxx.zip to your sdcard storage on your OB
    2. [Optional] Check nova-xxx.zip's Md5 to check if your download copy is corrupted
    3. Boot into CWM Recovery through whatever method you choose (anreboot, terminal, ...)
    4. [First flash only] Use the volume keys and power button to select Wipe Data
    5. Select Install Zip from SD Card
    6. Find the nova-xxx.zip file you downloaded earlier
    7. Scroll through all the No's and hit Yes, install nova-xxx.zip
    8. Wait for the installation to finish
    9. Select Reboot
    10. After the long initial reboot, reboot a second time and you're all set

    Alert.png
    I'm not responsible for any damage what-so-ever done to your phone, as with any ROM, you accept this risk.
    Alert.png


    Download.png
    First time flashing Nova? Download this: http://bit.ly/nova-eight (it will wipe data) | md5: 655b0af2e6f15224d4840cee67519902
    Download.png
    Already have Nova? Download this: --- (it will not wipe data)


    Quick guidelines:

    - If UI is very slow after 2 minutes, reflash. If home button doesn't work, reflash.
    - Remember to reboot after the first long boot (applies some tweaks).
    - Check "known issues" and "FAQ" before posting.

    Q. If I flash a firmware after flashing Nova, I can't install applications! why?

    forward.png
    Q. I miss some stock applications, how can I have them back?
    tick.png
    A. Use Application Injector in Nova Script (terminal app > 'su' > 'nova')

    forward.png
    Q. I'm getting problems with superuser (root) and reboot doesn't fix it, help!

    A. Use this: http://www.multiupload.com/VRD7JFXLA2 - instructions inside.

    forward.png
    Q. It seems it's a bit laggy sometimes, what can I do to improve this?
    tick.png
    A. You might want to try disable BPO and d2u in misc options @ nova script to see if it solves your problem. Also keep in mind that if you have too low voltages for the frequencies, one of the most evident signs will be lag.

    Ah y, nvm.
    Kernel will work with stock.

    An easy solution would be to include in the android system a button-pressed-check on startup (maybe the "G"-Button) and execute a reboot recovery from there (prior to "really" startup the system).

    So you would have a save recovery if the rom is "basically" working.

    Easier said than done but I'll look into it.
    It can't be in the system but it might be possible on the ramdisk.
