How can I create a Power Menu with "Reboot" and "Recovery" options for LG stock ROMs 2.3.3? I only found guides for Froyo ones.
I also would like to know how to add "Reboot" and "Recovery" to power menu.
Maybe someone will share some ideas
Search harder... or install GingerLOL.

After seeing the 20th question on "why am I getting a verification error", I thought a guide for new users would be helpful. So, here it is.
First, you need to be rooted. Instructions are in every forum. No offense, but if you can't do that, don't try to change your phone yet.
Next, install Clockwork. Instructions are here: Clockword mod installation. It takes awhile, so be patient.
IMPORTANT: When you are using Odin, DO NOT PUSH THE PHONE BUTTON! ONLY USE THE PDA BUTTON OR WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE!!!!!!!
Download the Rom you wish to use, I've been on this one for several days, and it is really smooth. jt1134's Superclean D01
Plug you phone in to your usb cable, attached to your PC. Mount the sd card, put the downloaded Rom on to the card, and unmount the sd card.
Boot in to recovery. You can either use Rom manager to boot directly in to Clockwork,(Download from the Market) or turn your phone off, hold the volume up and volume down buttons in, and press the power button until the Samsung logo appears. Use the volume buttons to move to the "apply sdcard:update.zip" line, and push the home button. That will get you in to Clockwork.
When in Clockwork, if you push the home button, the screen shuts off. Just push it again to turn it back on. Use the power button in Clockwork to select your choice.
Use the volume buttons to scroll to "install zip from sdcard". Press power.
Go to "choose zip from sdcard". Press power.
Scroll to the rom zip you just put on you sd card. Press power. Scroll to "yes" and press power again.
The rom will install, and you will go back to the short menu screen. Scroll to "go back". You will be at the main menu with "reboot now" highlighted. Press power, and wait for the phone to reboot. It takes awhile for the first boot as the new Rom installs.
Presto! You have a new Rom!
If you want to install a voodoo kernel, follow the same steps to install it, except the install takes longer, and the phone talks to you.
If you to change Roms and have a voodoo kernel installed, disable it,Instructions in the first post, flash a stock kernel,Stock kernel(Thanks adrynalyne!), flash your new Rom, then flash the voodoo kernel again.
is the stock kernel really a stock kernel though? I compared it with the "Odin Restore files to get you to stock" thread and the data doesn't match up.
Nonetheless, thanks for this excellent write-up!
It doesn't have voodoo, which is all we need.
This should be a sticky!!
Do you really need to flash a non-voodoo kernel to switch between ROMs? I haven't left jt's Super Clean, but I kinda feel like doing anything more than disabling tge lagfix is overkill. I could just be outright wrong, though.

So far I've flashed and re-flashed several different roms. I've never used a stock rom in between. Maybe I've just been lucky but, for the most part, I haven't had any serious problems. I'm interested to hear others' experiences.

do i need to downgrade my phone?
no...you don't have to...
if manage to put custom rom on my phone, can i still buy apps from market?
no ur version is 2.2.1 u cant root it using z4root
use gingerbreak instead it'll root ur cell phone and flash a custom recovery and choose a rom which ever u like and u r good to go..
and when ever u need to un root ur device just flash another froyo rom and use z4root to unroot it
simple.!!!
to make it more easy make a nand backup of an unrooted froyo app if u need it so hard....
but again to change ur rom from unrooted froyo rom u need to root again ur phone

Yes you can. The market is linked with your google account and it is not dependant on the ROM or phone.
z4root always force close

The error message is perfectly fine and I get it all the time. To scroll the options in the recovery menu, use the volume up and down button. To select an option, press the 'Menu' button and the 'back' button is to go to previous screen/cancel a task.
Hope this helps.
thank you everyone. just rooted and install custom recovery
is there rom that will only need 2gb SDcard?
i just want a rom that will fix my laggy screen when playing games, texting and while browsing. i saw Megatron v1 but it needs class 4 SD.

Use any rom that doesn't have darktremor's a2sd, for example, openOptimus, devoid, void #forever, CM7 etc.
I was wondering if there was a way to install the power button menu like in some roms, which gives you the option to reboot, recovery, power off etc... on the stock unlocked rom?

Hey everyone I'm pretty new to the Android scene. I bought my Evo 3D off contract a few months ago and have been lurking here so I kinda know the basics. I downgraded my HBOOT to 1.4 and am S-off. I also installed clockwork mod but don't know how to access it so I can flash ROMs.
How can I root my phone and access clockwork mod? Also I want to try out ICS, so is there any ROM you suggest? And I don't want to flash the leaked radios because if I ever break my 4S, I need this to be my backup phone and the radios cant be messed up. Thanks everyone for helping a newbie out

To root your phone, follow the online step by step instructions. Can't provide a link busy at the time. But to acces clockworkmod IF ur rooted then its east by pressing the volume down+power button...press volume down n press the "power" button to select "recovery" n there you have it ...I.am using cleanrom ICS. Sense 3.6 android 4.0.3 with leedroid tweeks ...I LOVE MY PHONE.lol

You can get to the recovery by switching off all the way down - to make sure, take our your battery.
Then while holding the volume key down press power until a new menu with white background shows.
Choose recovery from the menu using the volume keys for up and down and power key for enter. You should then get into recovery and can put on new roms.
IMPORTANT. Make sure you read all the instructions before loading a new ROM. Always backup through recovery before flashing a new ROM.
Hope that helped.

Oh wow I thought that was the stock recovery, I didn't know that overwrote it. I'll check out that rom thanks. I'll also google rooting on the EVO 3d and see if I can find something. Thanks

Thanks, I thought that was just the stock recovery I'll make sure to read all the instructions and make backups.
Greetings,
I have an HTC Legend with an broken trackball (pressing).
With the ClockworkMod Version 5.0.2.0 you can only select with the trackball.
With an older version of Clockworkmod i was able to select with the power button.
Does anyone have the older Clockworkmod? Or can i modify my clockworkmod to select with the power button
Thanks in advance,
Maik Verheijen
P.S: my english isn't very good, sorry
I will try to remove the trackball, and then check if i can select with the power button
You can select menu items with the volume buttons. As for selection, like said, try removing the trackball and activating the input.
There is also CWM touch, free if you flash it manually.

Already fixed it.
I opened Rom Manager and had chosen the option: 'All Recoveries' (or something similar at the bottom) and installed the marked option.
Then I reverted back to CWM 5.0.2.0 and voila, it worked.
I don't think this solved my problem, think it was a loosen contact but i thought to share it.
Is there an CMW Touch recovery for the HTC Legend?
Thanks for your reply!
Maik
