FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS!!! (Press thanks if this helps!)

Q. Which Recovery can i flash with?
A. TWRP (Team Win Recovery), Clockworkmod and AmonRA

Q. Can i use this ROM with the latest baseband?
A. No!!! If you want full data use ONLY old baseband... ;) To flash it, go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1149530 or here: (FOR PICTURE GUIDE) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1217504

Q. Why i having battery drains?
A. If you want save your battery, dunt use the phone... JOKE! Lower down your brightness and use the data/3G/WIFI whenever when you wanna use... And being a portable charger which you can use... Eg. MILI Portable Charger...

Q. Where can i get back CM stuffs?
A. Andy has actually modified the code in the second released, so his has modified it and T-Mobile theme chooser wont work anymore.

Q. ****! I somehow stuck on 2nd LG Logo!! How?
A. Try reflashing first, if the problem persist again, comment here and try to produce logcat and devs can help.

A. Use the Latest Franco.kernel .35 included (Latest is v1.2-12112011)

Q. I'm using old baseband, but mobile data doesn't work!
A. Go to Settings>Wireless&Networks>Mobile networks>Access Point Names. If empty, your APN isn't included in the apns-conf.xml file (it's a known issue). Input the APN manually. OR Since u have CM7, flash it over... It will work... ;)

Q. What is the solution to Tethering??
A. Use Wifi Tether (available in Market)

Q. Can i flash this over mik's CM7 or Neojn's (Knzo) Void.Forever?
A. Yes (Tested by me)

LAST QUESTION ABOVE THIS... READ THIS!!!

You have to wipe ALL:
- if your new rom version is different from previous, even gingerbread gingerbread, as example you change from 2.3.3 to 2.3.4 or to 2.3.5
- if youre coming from froyo and go to gingerbread or vice versa

You have to wipe cache/dalvik only
- if you change between same versions of gingerbread, as example you're coming from 2.3.4 and switch to another 2.3.4

You have to wipe even ALL
- if you're coming from mik's 2.3.x or any another rom and would like to change to Andy's Phoenix 2.3.4 because it's different API code

Any More Questions? Comment Here! ;) We will help you asap! 80% Gurantee!!! Further question or bugs, Go Here

Pixelization problem in andy's rom

I can't post in the dev section but reading the comments and seeing the screenshots, I just wonder if the pixelization is related to a compression algorithm
that is implemented in the rom.

It does. Andy says in his description that this rom only supports CWM and AmonRA isn't supported anymore. But Thanks.
Despite what Andy says that's not actually true. Simply disable "signiture verify" in AmonRa and it'll work just fine. AmonRa supports both Amend and Edify scripting, I honestly don't know why he posted that.

Haven't got time to tinker with phone here, Andy released on 2AM and then I have to go to work lol. Has anyone confirmed the USB detecting without LG driver feature? That's my most anticipated feature.

Also, nice to know I don't need the extra step to change recovery first. I know AmonRa is old, but it hasn't given me problems so changing isn't high on my list :p

Interesting that people in the dev thread says it works with both old and new basebands.

So I flashed the new rom, it looks amazing but the only problem I came across was no mobile data, I even flashed the gapps but still no mobile data. Anyone have the same problem.

Where do I find a copy of the apn list? Can I use mik's cm7 apn list, copy it to the system/app path than reboot, also forgot to mention about changing permissions
