don't worry take it as a joke
this doesn't harm your mobile or cause any problem to your device
I suggest you to use teamwin recovery which doesn't give this message
I can't give you link because of the forum rules
so google for it!

DO NOT install roms from ROM Manager! Just reboot into normal old clockwork mod recovery and install zip from there after wiping cache partition and dalvik cache.
when it stops there, refering to OP, hit the 2nd option to install update from sd card and it will shoot you into Clockwork IF you have clockwork installed. Mine does this all the time no matter how many roms I install or revert back to. Dunno why and never tried to fix it as it never gave me problems past this.

since you are not aware of recovery and you want to use cm7 just flash this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1024838 (download the signed recovery) this is recommended to avoid bootloop as this wipe the system directly form recovery witout failing whereas thunderg recovery somtimes fails to wipe system, if you still want to use thunderg use the latest flash file here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1065197
boot into recovery switch off your phone press home+vol down+power
now select usb ms toggle and copy the file just downloaded and flash it then reboot now u have clockwork which works great with cm7.
steps to follow
Boot into clockwork recovery.
go to backup and restore -create a backup of your current rom (Note:If already backup has been done then avoid this step, backup created using amonra or thunderg wont support restoring using clockwork)
go to mount and storage-format sd card
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
mount and storage-format system
mount and storage-mount usb storage (make sure usb debugging is enabled)
copy the rom zip file to the root of your sd card

Hi all,can someone teach me how to overclock my phone processor
which is default processor speed in 600mhz to higher clock speed ??
because i found i play some game will lag,example angry birds
*i don't want to use custom rom,because last time fail to flash it and send to service centre due to can't turn on phone
so,i hope all of you can teach me step-by-step guide to overclock my processor speed with using stock rom v10f
Regards
if you dont want to try a custom rom i dont know about overclocking the stock rom but i think this will work, it will for sure work for the lag fix for angrybirds, you can flash milks kernel it should work for both problems although i would suggest flashing a new ROM if you want to see significant performance enhancement
Take nandroid before flashing..
I suggest u flash cavermans v3 kernel. Or franco kernel.
Install setcpu and u can overclock..
but i dunno how to flash kernel
some1 can teach ?
To overclock on stock:
Root your phone using z4root or gingerbreak.
Use Setcpu to overclock.
There are guides on rooting around this forum somewhere, have a search.

1. root your phone
2. install a custom recovery (the easiest way is to install ROM Manager from Market and select "flash cwm recovery"
3. download a custom kernel (I'm using franco's) and copy it on your sdcard
4. boot into custom recovery: turn off your phone and then press vol down + home + power and release at lg logo
5. make a nand backup
6. wipe dalvik cache (in cwm recovery it's in advanced menu)
7. select install zip from sdcard, select your kernel from the sdcard and flash it.
8. start your phone and install setcpu; use max 729mhz
That's it

Hi, I'm running a stock P500 and I'm a bit disappointed with its performance. I'm looking for a ROM which is feature-complete, i.e. no missing features such as Bluetooth calling, etc. and minimal to no deviation from the stock Android UI. Any suggestions?
use megatron ROM it is the closest in my opinion and has very good performance but i would suggest trying the other ROMs that have gingerbread like miks cm7 they are not missing much and what they are missing you can get back

If you want a nice and long battery life
flash Franco kernel
take note* For 2.2 flash with CFS
Do as what you are told on their page.. I or the dev will not be responsilble.
Ok, so this is all kinda new to me so I wanted to make sure that I have the basics covered:
1. I need to root my phone. I'm running Android 2.2.2 so I guess that means I need to use gingerbreak. It's an .apk file that I need to install on my phone and then I run it to gain root access. Are there any command line actions needed for gingerbreak?
2. After rooting, I need to install a ROM manager such as CWM or AmonRA. If I'm not mistaken, the program itself will install the custom recovery, right? And how do I boot into that recovery mode?
3. After booting into recovery mode, I need to do a nandroid (?) backup of my current ROM, right? And the backup of my stock ROM is restored through the same custom recovery, yes? Would restoring the stock ROM unroot my phone and remove the custom recovery as well?
3. After backing up, I need to flash the custom ROM which should be saved as a .zip file on my SD card. Do I need to worry about the kernel as well?
Sorry if I have a lot of questions.

1. Install it, open it and select "Root"
2. No, the root program won't install the recovery. You need to do that; the easiest way is by Rom Manager (download from market); boot in recovery: turn off the phone and start it by pressing at the same time: home + vol down + power key and release at lg logo to enter custom recovery or just select boot into recovery from ROM Manager
3. Yes, make a backup and to restore it just select "restore" from the same place. No, you will restore the backup you just made so your phone will be exactly the way it was when you created the backup (including apps, settings etc)
4. Yes, you will enter "install zip from sdcard -> choose zip". Don't forget to wipe cache, dalvik cache, data/factory reset and format /system before you flash the rom. Other kernels are not mandatory but highly recommended (the differences are big) - also wipe just cache & dalvik cache before flashing the kernel

Thank you. What are the precautions that I need to take to make sure I don't brick my phone? Also, what are the chances of my phone getting damaged and at which point during those steps is it most likely to happen?

The chaces of bricking the phone are very small.
What can happen:
- some people reported that their phone got bricked when they installed the recovery with ROM Manager (this can be easily undone, there is a thread about this). Never happened to me, everything went smooth & fast. There are other ways to install a recovery if you don't want to use ROM Manager, just check the Development section.
- the ROM you choose can be uncompatible with your recovery (all the new roms are compatible with clockworkmod recovery (this is the recovery you will install via ROM Manager); there are some older roms which are compatible only with AmonRA)
- after flashing a custom kernel the phone might not boot (no panic, just flash the rom again or restore backup); check if your ROM is compatible with the kernel you choose
Flashing with recovery is very safe because everything can be easily undone. As long as the phone boots into recovery there is no panic.
But most of the time if your cautious and do everything as told your fine~~
hahaha.. Enjoy..
Rom manager give Cwm.. So no hassle..

Thank you. When I backup my stock ROM, the output is a .zip file which is no different from how the custom ROM zips are packaged, right? Also, would you know if Gingerbreak supports unrooting? I appreciate all of your help and I'm quite excited to root my Optimus One.

Your backup will appear as a folder on the root of your sdcard (/clockworkmod/folder with the date of your backup). You need to save that folder on your pc just to be safe.
Yes, gingerbread supports unrooting

Thanks! Is it safe to do all the flashing/work from within ROM Manager? It just seems too easy to be true.
Also, is there a 'compatibility matrix' of some sort for the different ROMS and kernels available? Since I want GB, I'm planning on flashing Mik's CM7 mod. Is Franco's kernel compatible with that?

I say it's pretty safe. As I said, worked like a charm for me.
mik_os's rom is flashable via clockworkmod recovery and compatible with franco.kernel (bfs version).
If you are interested in a froyo stock rom with just the root and a performant kernel like franco's one, I could cook a rom for you...

But now rom manager doesn't let us download any Rom(Only for premium) anymore except for Gapps.
download at the Dev page at XDA is the best. cause it shows all the steps required

Thanks. I was able to gain root as well as install CWM. I'm currently backing up my current ROM. Now I'm not sure if this is a stupid question but when I install a custom ROM, wouldn't that overwrite CWM? How do I go back to recovery then, say, to reflash my original ROM?
Flashing a rom through recovery does not overwrite the recovery.
And you can always boot into recovery by pressing and holding home+volume down+power when the phone is off till the recovery menu boots.

I'm just about to flash my first custom ROM. It's all quite clear up to this point. I'm not so sure about the kernel though. Is it all done via the Recovery console? Which options/commands should I take? And what about the ZRAM initializer?

For flashing rom : wipe everything, partition SD card only of you want to use a2sd or data2sd (check ciaox's REPO thread for more info about these two) and then choose flash from zip. If you are wiping battery stats then do it when you are fully charged.
For flashing kernel : wipe cache,dalvik cache and battery stats. No need to partition SD card.
EDIT: yes you need to flash zram initialiser. Keep in mind to flash Cfs version for froyo and bfs version for gb roms. Also always reboot between multiple flashes.

Just go to the zip rom. example franco.kernel.v17. click on it. and choose rom manager if prompt and just wipe dalvik cache..
WIPE BATT STAT ONLY WHEN YOU CHARGED AT 100%
Zram is actually up to individual.
just reminding him. Hope im not a pest to you.
Okay so I am new to the whole rooting and custom ROMs thing I went according to this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1034145 I used OPTION E (rooting 2.3.3) that worked fine and installed fine, so apparently now I have a routed device, Now when i try to install http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1228436 It gives me an error not enough space on the device.
Any advice would be appreciated but please give tutorials aswell when giving advice.
P.S when i load in recovery mode it says Can't access to '/system/csc/XFV/system'.
I do not know if something is wrong or if I even have a rooted device, and please bear in mind I am a noob at this whole rooting and custom ROMS thing.
Thanks in advance.
Did you wipe everything?

Go in recovery mod home+power button choose apply update from SD card choose the zip you downloaded. after that power off and go again in recovery mod instead of recovery mod now u can see cwm 5.after that wipe factory data and reset,cache partion in cwm5 menu and dalvik cache in advanced menu
Put rom zip file in SD card.choose zip to install and yes to install it.reboot and wait bcz first boot takes long time.

Hello I am very happy that you tried to help but your instructions were very unclear and unorganized please if you do not mind could you rewrite them in step by step form in detail as your first set of instructions were not possible for me to understand and yes I am English.
What i mean by not understandable is your said " after that power off and go again in recovery mod instead of recovery mod"
P.S remember I am a noob

Even I am a noob but one thing I can advise you is that if you are afraid of water then it means that you cannot get the pearl inside it. Just "Hope for the best and be always prepared for the worst".
