extract the file from the removed apps ZIP and move it in the system/app folder of the ROM zip file before you install the ROM
should work till i find better solution for this.

Yes, I did this. I even did everything again from scratch: copy apk files to the /system/app of the Zip archive and flashed again - same problem.

Seems that the only possibility is trying to extract the LG Weather Widget and other LG apps from another image using Titanium Backup, then flash your image and restore the apps...

OK I found the solution. THIS now is working 100% weather widget for this rom. It is turn out that the widget does not like to be Deodexed.

All removed system apps you can find HERE. This time odexed to be sure that they work. Just remove the apps from the ZIP you do not need before flash from recovery

seems that you have an app like FB or G+ that hold the CPU on all the time. Most probable cause is when you do not exit the apps with back button but home button.

Probably you're right...i search for Alarm Manager on Google and i find what you told! Well i have an Android since 1 year and i didn't know this! With Android you will never stop to learn! :D
Well i think that is Facebook that performs 277 wakelocks, it can be also whatsapp right? But if i stop whatsapp with back button i will receive notifications? Because i have a problem that delay a lot the notifications!

Does this ROM need to be installed from recovery partition, or could I use 2nd init recovery like in xbsa rooted v28B? I am not sure whether it would matter.

Also, would American APNs be ok with Euro v30B?

Should work on all recoveries and will not change it. About the APN - i can not try cos I am in Europa. Please report if you test it.

Hey... you put exactly tha apps that i got off of the rom cos they are battery killers :)
Infact with tjis hard use it is not so bad. What you can do is.
1. Put wifi sleep policy to - only when plugged in. So you will have 3g when screen is off and wifi when is on.
2. Switch to acura2/cfq
3. Use my NEXT rom that is not finished where i use tasker for modulating the cpu during different states. Well this won't be soon ;)
For the locks - take Better Battery Stats and look for Raw locks of this process.

Btw... what kind of rom you use? Does not look like ICS GPCR.

Well I need these two apps that are Facebook and whatsapp... However your question makes me laugh... Of course I use your great rom.. That is probably the best for our phone.. I asked for battery life because you told that the rom is battery friendly! Then for discover wakelock from alarm manager you advise to me Better Battery Stats?

he he.. funny.. i do not remember makeing battery mod with redundant function - % and icon one next to another :)
so... 99% sure that this wakelocks are coming from this 2 apps that you use. they trigger raw a raw AlarmManager wakelocks. You can check that by stopping the apps for a day.
Better Battery Stats have the possibility to show you exactly the program responsible for the raw wakelocks in AlarmManger - lick keyboard clicking sound can also do that or screen on-off sounds etc but I am sure that if you follow my 1st page "After installation setup and After installation tricks for more battery (*)" the 2 apps that you use are the one that trigger that.
And really - if you havent - put wifi sleep policy to sleep when is not plugged. - will help a bit

edit... I was looking again in the pictures you show - so keep+facebook.catana+facebook.orca+whatsapp+messages+tweeter just the amount of AlarmManager... so now I am 99.99% sure that they make the raw locks :)

    DOWNLOAD ROM V2.1​




    Before installation be sure that:
    1. You are on V30A/B/C or V28B
    2. Install Wpark Bootloader 1.25a And Recovery TWRP or CWM
    =============================================
    Installation:
    if you are using TWRP Recovery:
    1. WIPE ---- WIPE CACHE ---- WIPE DALVIK CACHE ---- FACTORY RESET ---- SYSTEM
    2. Install the ROM
    3. Reboot

    If you are using CWM Recovery:
    1. WIPE CACHE ---- WIPE DAVIL CACHE ---- WIPE DATA ---- FORMAT SYSTEM ---- FORMAT DATA
    2. Install the ROM
    3. Reboot

    After set up your device - reboot 2-3 times before use
    =============================================


    Big THANKS to Defcomg for helping me solve a problem
    Big THANKS to Acura2201 for the perfect kernel
    Big THANKS to cajunflavoredbob for the off-line speech recognition - I do not need JB anymore.


    Battery mods for V30B - HERE
    Clean cache and dalvik cache after flash


    Some more stuff that can be freezed/uninstalled if you do not use them and you install already your phone
    (First 2 pictures)​
    ga8n.jpg
    uzl4.jpg
    td1i.jpg

    Then after fast reboot you can free up to 250MB RAM or in normal use I have s.t. like 120-130MB instead of 100-110MB minimum. Not a big deal but - why should i give the memory of my phone to apps that do not do anything for me? ;)

    Hi pals....
    My daughter hurt my eye so I stop for a while with GPCR ROM

    What i did till now is:

    1. 99% Odex for speed and memory (without systemUI - for future mods)
    2. Huexxx battery mod with transparent status bar
    3. Disable signature checks - so you can install more software like 30B TaskManger from AT&T
    4. Disable KSM for kernels that support it - this increase battery life.
    5. More init.d battery tweaks
    6. Sysctl and tweaks for battery
    7. VM drop caches
    8. Loopy Smoothness Tweak for LG Optimus 3D ver 3 by iBluemind - smoooooth launcher
    end more..

    I will update the first page as soon as I get better.

    So... HERE is the ROM

    Follow the installation procedure on the first page and the tricks for long battery life and speed
    Please test in normal daily use at least 2 days before you give a score for my work.

    No big speed penalty - around 5% only
    Antutu 4.0.1
    1. 1008MHz Hotplug/CFQ - 9700
    2. 1356MHz Hotplug/CFQ - 11900

    Cheers

    p.s. If you have and idea for the Rom - speed, battery and functionality (no other stuff) - just tell me.
    This is not the final version. I am going to implement some more stuff in final v2.2 but these are all tweaks.
