i know that this is one of most hated questions here which rom is the best \ which rom should i choose but i'm really not ready to read all those 300+ pages threads in development section right now to find out what is going there and i need my p990 to start working properly asap (going away from civilization for a couple of weeks)

i checked some roms back in november\december, but the call bug on cm 10.1 was very annoying and i've put back gueste2x_goodbye-2.0 which works ok, but lately i have some battery drain and fc problems (most likely because of some apps\services) so i decided to start from scratch, preferably with some rom that still have some support

(i'm ready to do full wipe, including flashing baseband) so, to keep it short what is most stable rom at the moment?

i don't mind some problems with the device, don't care about gaming and benchmarks but i need my calls to be as good and stable as possible i.e. no call bug etc.

You can try cm 10 new bl ver..or ics/ics based rom...
Or you can try pengus kowalski kernel..they said no call bug with it on old bl

Yes you can...afaik it has brightness bug but auto brightness works..and hdmi prob..
Imo you should use kernel that specifically design for ics...like civz skywalker or carburano king of birds kernel..but new bootloader only

For me, PA Build of tonyp with pengus's kowalski kernel is the best setup as your daily driver with regards to battery consumption, redraws, bsod's, call-bug. It is for old BL though. Just visit tonyp's thread and read some posts there. Enjoy!

It's all old bootloader yes?if you wanna take a try..just grab official ics v30a/b according to your region...just search in development thread...if you don't want it..because it's new bootloader...you can try ruglez ics vlite based on v30a (if i'm not wrong) afaik it's fully functional as v30a stock...

Guys, stupid question about ICS stock rom (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2076882)

Is there setting to configure hardware buttons in stock rom ?
I want to configure a button for recent apps (without long press on home)

Cheers !

I have PA v2.6 and my phone is more laggy than the stock .

It has only 20-45 MB of ram free (that's the laggy reason i think)

Is on the old bootloader with kowalski kernel 100p5 (stable) .

What to do about that ?

Hi all,

I have a 2nd battery that I did not use for a while. I am trying to charge it but when I plug it to the wall charger, it goes in bootloop (LG logo, off, LG logo off).

With my main battery charging when off is working.

I am using CM10 from pengus and its kernel v11p4.

Any ideas

FROM CM 10.1 to STOCK ICS

Hi guys,

Is it possible to flash Official KDZ Stock ICS coming from CM 10.1? I've found flashable Stock zips but I want to leave the phone as Stock 4.0.4 no root, nothing.

Thanks in advance.

Questions about updating ROM

Cheers.

I've been searching the boards for quite a while but I can't seem to find the answers I'm looking for.
My phone started out as a GB and was upgraded to ICS about 2 months ago. I've installed the Avatar ROM last week and now the CM version is 2.0b-20130226-p990. The Kernel is 2.6.39.4-CM+ from Feb, 26.

Since then there's been an update (well, two to be exact) to the Avatar ROM. Now in the new distribution there are versions for the old bootloader and the new one. From the image I downloaded and installed (The Feb, 28/2013 distribution), I'm almost positive I have the new bootloader, but how can you tell? And what's the difference between them? Is it just an expected manufacturer hardening?

Now for my most important question, what's the least disrupting way to upgrade the ROM, while keeping the biggest amount of configurations unchanged? The tools I have available are Titanium Backup and TRWP. What do I have to wipe? And backup (besides a full system just in case)? Will I need to re-install Gapps?

Thanks in advance.
Duarte Bruno.

I cannot mount my external_sd in CWM or TWRP, I did a search but I can't find answers so I posted here.

SD card already formatter via phone and is FAT32. I can't make backups since external_sd cannot be mounted, sdcard however has low storage space.

Old/new bootloader?no...flashable zip it means custom rom..not an official...(official stock ics -> v30a for europe,v30b for asian ~680mb each)
Just search in development kdz file..and how to flash it (nvflash,smartflash,kdz update or all in one toolkit)

1.new bootloader -> pink lg logo at boot
Old bootloader -> white lg logo at boot
2.if you want dirty install without wiping your data..just don't wipe data cache but still at least format system, it won't delete your data,setting,etc..just wiping your previous rom
